EXECUTION COPY
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of June 4, 1997 (this "Agreement"),
among INTERMEDIA COMMUNICATIONS INC., a Delaware corporation ("Purchaser"), and
---------
the individuals and entities whose names and addresses are set forth at the foot
of this Agreement (collectively, the "Stockholders", and each, individually, a
------------
"Stockholder"), it being understood that the Stockholders are executing this
------------
Agreement in their capacity as stockholders of the Company (as defined below)
and not in their capacity as directors and officers of the Company.
WHEREAS, Purchaser and its wholly owned subsidiary, Daylight Acquisition
Corp. (the "Subsidiary"), propose to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger,
----------
dated as of the date hereof (the "Merger Agreement"), with DIGEX, Incorporated,
----------------
a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), which Merger Agreement provides, among
-------
other things, for the acquisition of the Company by Subsidiary through (i) a
tender offer (the "Offer") for any and all shares of Common Stock of the
-----
Company, par value $.01 per share ("Company Common Stock") for $13.00 per share
--------------------
(the "Per Share Amount") and (ii) the second step merger pursuant to which
----------------
Subsidiary will merge with and into the Company (the "Merger") and all
------
outstanding shares of Company Common Stock other than shares held by Purchaser
and Subsidiary will be converted into the right to receive not less than the Per
Share Amount in cash; and
WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Stockholders own (both beneficially and
of record) the number of shares of Company Common Stock set forth opposite their
respective names at the foot of this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, as a condition to the willingness of Purchaser and the Subsidiary
to enter into the Merger Agreement, Purchaser and the Subsidiary have required
that the Stockholders agree, and in order to induce Purchaser and the Subsidiary
to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Stockholders have agreed, to enter into
this Agreement governing the voting and disposition of the shares of Company
Common Stock now owned and which may hereafter be acquired by any of the
Stockholders (the "Shares").
------
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants
and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the
parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Tender of Shares Pursuant to the Offer. Each Stockholder hereby
--------------------------------------
irrevocably agrees to tender and sell (and not withdraw), pursuant to and in
accordance with the terms of the Offer as amended from time to time, all of
such Stockholder's Shares (provided, that the consideration offered in any
--------
such amendment is in cash and in an amount equal to the Per Share Amount).
2. Grant of Option. Each Stockholder hereby grants to Purchaser an exclusive
---------------
and irrevocable option (each an "Option", and together the "Options") to
------ -------
purchase from such Stockholder any and all Shares held by such Stockholder
(the "Option Shares") at a price equal to the Per Share Amount per Option
-------------
Share. Purchaser may assign to any subsidiary or affiliate of Purchaser
(including Subsidiary) the right to exercise the Option. Each Option may be
exercised individually from each Stockholder, in whole or in part, at any
time or from time to time, on or after the date hereof and prior to the
Termination Date (as defined below). No Stockholder shall, prior to the
termination of the Option, take, or refrain from taking, any action which
would have the effect of preventing or disabling such Stockholder from
delivering the Option Shares or otherwise performing its obligations under
this Agreement. In the event Purchaser wishes to purchase any Option Shares
from any Stockholder, the following procedures shall be followed:
(a) Purchaser shall send a written notice to such Stockholder specifying
the number of Option Shares Purchaser will purchase and the place and
date (on or before the later of ten business days from the date such
notice is mailed and the date of expiration or termination of any
applicable waiting period under Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx
Antitrust Improvements Act of 0000 (xxx "XXX Xxx")) of closing of such
-------
purchase. If such closing is to occur sooner than two business days
from the date such notice is mailed, notice shall also be given at the
time such written notice is given by telephone or telecopy.
(b) At the closing of such purchase, (i) Purchaser (or any affiliate or
subsidiary of Purchaser) shall pay to such Stockholder the aggregate
price for the Option Shares so purchased by certified or cashier's
check or wire transfer of immediately available funds and (ii) such
Stockholder shall deliver to Purchaser (or, at the option of Purchaser,
an affiliate or subsidiary of
2
Purchaser) a certificate or certificates, duly endorsed in blank or
accompanied by stock powers duly executed in blank, representing the
number of Option Shares purchased.
3. Voting of Shares. Each Stockholder shall, until the Termination Date, cause
----------------
the Shares owned by such Stockholder to be voted at any meeting of the
stockholders of the Company or in any consent in lieu of such a meeting in
favor of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement, against any transactions inconsistent therewith, and as otherwise
reasonably requested by Purchaser in order to carry out the purposes of the
Merger Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Termination Date"
----------------
shall mean the earlier of (i) the termination of the Merger Agreement in
accordance with its terms, (ii) the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger
Agreement), and (iii) the termination of this Agreement by the mutual
written agreement of the parties hereto or pursuant to the terms of Section
10 of this Agreement.
4. Irrevocable Proxy. Each Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints Purchaser,
-----------------
until the Termination Date, as its attorney and proxy pursuant to the
provisions of Section 212 of the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, with full power of substitution, to vote and take other actions
(by written consent or otherwise) in favor of the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, against any transactions
inconsistent therewith, and as otherwise reasonably required in order to
carry out the purposes of the Merger Agreement, with respect to the Shares
(and all other securities issued to the Stockholder in respect of the
Shares) which each Stockholder is entitled to vote at any meeting of
stockholders of the Company (whether annual or special and whether or not an
adjourned or postponed meeting) or in respect of any consent in lieu of any
such meeting or otherwise. This proxy and power of attorney is irrevocable
and coupled with an interest in favor of Purchaser. Each Stockholder hereby
revokes all other proxies and powers of attorney with respect to the Shares
(and all other securities issued to the Stockholder in respect of the
Shares) which it may have heretofore appointed or granted, and no subsequent
proxy or power of attorney shall be given or written consent executed (and
if given or executed, shall not be effective) by the Stockholder with
respect thereto.
3
5. No Disposition or Encumbrance of Shares. Each Stockholder hereby covenants
-------------------------------------
and agrees that, until the expiration of the Options as provided in Section
2 of this Agreement, except as contemplated by this Agreement, the
Stockholder shall not, and shall not offer or agree to, sell, transfer,
tender, assign, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, or create or permit to
exist any security interest, lien, claim, pledge, option, right of first
refusal, agreement, limitation on the Stockholder's voting rights, charge or
other encumbrance of any nature whatsoever with respect to the Shares.
6. No Solicitation of Transactions. Each Stockholder shall not, directly or
-------------------------------
indirectly, through any agent or representative or otherwise, (i) solicit,
initiate or encourage the submission of any proposal or offer from any
individual, corporation, partnership, limited partnership, syndicate, person
(including, without limitation, a "person" as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended), trust, association or
entity or government, political subdivision, agency or instrumentality of a
government (collectively, other than Purchaser and any affiliate of
Purchaser, a "Person") relating to (a) any acquisition or purchase of all or
------
any of the Shares or (b) any acquisition or purchase of all or any portion
of the assets of, or any equity interest in, the Company or any subsidiary
of the Company or any business combination with the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company or (ii) participate in any negotiations regarding,
or furnish to any Person any information with respect to, or otherwise
cooperate in any way with, or assist or participate or facilitate or
encourage, any effort or attempt by any Person to do or seek any of the
foregoing. Each Stockholder immediately shall cease and cause to be
terminated all existing discussions or negotiations of the Stockholder and
its agents or other representatives with any Person conducted heretofore
with respect to any of the foregoing. Each Stockholder shall notify
Purchaser promptly if any such proposal or offer, or any inquiry or contact
with any Person with respect thereto, is made and shall, in any such notice
to Purchaser, indicate in reasonable detail the identity of the Person
making such proposal, offer, inquiry or contact and the terms and conditions
of such proposal, offer, inquiry or contact. The provisions of this Section
4 shall not apply to or restrict any action that may be taken by the
Stockholder in its capacity as an officer or director of the Company.
