Non-Transferability of Stock Purchase Right.
This Stock Purchase Right may not be transferred in any manner otherwise

during the lifetime of Optionee only by Optionee. The terms of the Plan and this
Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors
and assigns of the Optionee.
II. AGREEMENT
1. Sale of Stock. The Company hereby agrees to sell to the individual named
in the Notice of Grant of Stock Purchase Right (the "Purchaser"), and the
Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase the number of Shares set forth in the Notice
of Grant of Stock Purchase Right, at the
2
exercise price per share set forth in the Notice of Grant of Stock Purchase
Right (the "Exercise Price"), and subject to the terms and conditions of the
Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. Subject to 14(c) of the Plan,
in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this
Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail.
2. Payment of Purchase Price. Purchaser herewith delivers to the Company
the aggregate Exercise Price for the Shares by cash or check or promissory note
in the form of Exhibit C secured by the shares pursuant to a Security Agreement
in the form of Exhibit D.
3. Purchaser's Representations. In the event the Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, at the time this Stock
Purchase Right is exercised, the Optionee shall, if required by the Company,
concurrently with the exercise of all or any portion of this Stock Purchase
Right, deliver to the Company his or her Investment Representation Statement in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.
4. Repurchase Option.
(a) In the event the Purchaser's continuous status as a Service
Provider terminates for any or no reason (including death or Disability), the
Company shall, upon the date of such termination (as reasonably fixed and
determined by the Company), have an irrevocable, exclusive option for a period
of ninety (90) days from such date to repurchase up to that number of shares
which constitute the Unreleased Shares (as defined in Section 5) at the Exercise
Price per share (the "Repurchase Price") (the "Repurchase Option").
(b) The Repurchase Option shall be exercised by the Company by
delivering written notice to the Purchaser or the Purchaser's executor (with a
copy to the Escrow Holder (as defined in Section 7)) AND, at the Company's
option, (i) by delivering to the Purchaser or the Purchaser's executor a check
in the amount of the aggregate Repurchase Price, or (ii) by the Company
canceling an amount of the Purchaser's indebtedness to the Company equal to the
aggregate Repurchase Price, or (iii) by a combination of (i) and (ii) so that
the combined payment and cancellation of indebtedness equals such aggregate
Repurchase Price. Upon delivery of such notice and the payment of the aggregate
Repurchase Price in any of the ways described above, the Company shall become
the legal and beneficial owner of the Unreleased Shares being repurchased and
all rights and interests therein or relating thereto, and the Company shall have
the right to retain and transfer to its own name the number of Unreleased Shares
being repurchased by the Company.
(c) Whenever the Company shall have the right to repurchase the
Unreleased Shares hereunder, the Company may designate and assign one or more
employees, officers, directors or shareholders of the Company or other persons
or organizations to exercise all or a part of the Company's Repurchase Option to
purchase all or a part of the Unreleased Shares. If the Fair Market Value of the
Unreleased Shares to be repurchased on the date of such designation or
assignment (the "Repurchase FMV") exceeds the aggregate Repurchase Price of the
Unreleased Shares, then each
2
3
such designee or assignee shall pay the Company cash equal to the difference
between the Repurchase FMV and the aggregate Repurchase Price of Unreleased
Shares to be purchased.
(d) If the Company or its assignee does not elect to exercise the
Repurchase Option conferred above by giving the requisite notice within ninety
(90) days following Purchaser's termination as a Service Provider, the
Repurchase Option shall terminate.
5. Release of Shares From Repurchase Option.
(a) As of the date of this Agreement, all of the Shares shall be
subject to the Company's Repurchase Option. The Shares shall be released from
the Repurchase Option as follows:
(i) One quarter (1/4) of the Shares shall be released from the
Repurchase Option on November 14, 2000; and
(ii) One forty-eighth (1/48) shall be released from the
Repurchase Option each full calendar month elapsing thereafter during all of
which Purchaser was a full time employee of the Company.
(b) Any of the Shares which, from time to time, have not yet been
released from the Repurchase Option are referred to herein as "Unreleased
Shares."
(c) The Shares which have been released from the Repurchase Option
shall be delivered to the Purchaser at the Purchaser's request (see Section 7).
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change of Control, as
defined below, for any reason that occurs while Purchaser is an employee of the
Company, that number of Unreleased Shares, if any, which, when aggregated with
any Shares previously released from the Repurchase Option, are required to equal
fifty percent (50%) of the Shares shall be released from the Repurchase Option
on the date the event constituting a Change of Control is consummated. The
balance of the Shares subject to the Repurchase Option shall continue to be
released from the Repurchase Option on the same schedule (i.e., the same number
of shares shall vest each month) as existed prior to the Change of Control. For
example, if a Change of Control occurs on a date where 25% of Purchaser's Shares
have been released from the Company's Purchase Option, then an additional 25% of
the Shares shall be released from the Purchase Option pursuant hereto. The
remaining 50% of the Shares shall vest at the rate of 1/48th of the Shares per
month thereafter, such that all Shares are fully vested after an additional
24-month period. If a Change of Control occurs on a date where more than 50% of
Purchaser's Shares have already been released from the Company's Purchase
Option, then no additional Shares shall be released from the Purchase Option.
For the purposes of the foregoing, a Change of Control shall mean the
occurrence of any of the following events:
3
4
(i) Any "person" (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and
14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) is or becomes the
"beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under said Act), directly or
indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the total
voting power represented by the Company's then outstanding voting securities
other than in a private financing transaction approved by the Board of
Directors;
(ii) the direct or indirect sale or exchange by the shareholders
of the Company of all or substantially all of the stock of the Company;
(iii) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a party
and in which the shareholders of the Company before such merger or consolidation
do not retain, directly or indirectly, at a least majority of the beneficial
interest in the voting stock of the Company after such transaction; or
(iv) the sale or disposition by the Company of all or
substantially all the Company's assets.
(e) Acceleration Upon Termination of Employment. In addition to the
Shares released from the Company's Repurchase Option pursuant to Section 4(d)
above, in the event the Purchaser's employment terminates as a result of an
Involuntary Termination other than for Cause upon or within 12 months after a
Change of Control, all Unreleased Shares shall be released from the Company's
Purchase Option upon the date of such termination.
For the purposes of this Section 5(e), the following terms
referred to in this Agreement shall have the following meanings:
(i) Cause. "Cause" shall mean (i) any act of personal dishonesty
taken by the Purchaser in connection with his responsibilities as an employee
and intended to result in substantial personal enrichment of the Purchaser, (ii)
conviction of a felony that is injurious to the Company, and (iii) a willful act
by the Purchaser which constitutes gross misconduct and which is injurious to
the Company.
(ii) Disability. "Disability" shall mean that the Purchaser has
been unable to substantially perform his duties as the result of his incapacity
due to physical or mental illness, and such inability, at least 26 weeks after
its commencement, is determined to be total and permanent by a physician
selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to the Purchaser or the
Purchaser's legal representative (such agreement as to acceptability not to be
unreasonably withheld).
(iii) Involuntary Termination. "Involuntary Termination" shall
mean (i) without the Purchaser's express written consent, the significant
reduction of the Purchaser's duties or responsibilities relative to the
Purchaser's duties or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to such
reduction; provided, however, that a reduction in duties or responsibilities
solely by virtue of
4
5
the Company being acquired and made part of a larger entity (as, for example,
when the Chief Financial Officer of Company remains as such following a Change
of Control and is not made the Chief Financial Officer of the acquiring
corporation) shall not constitute an "Involuntary Termination"; (ii) without the
Purchaser's express written consent, a substantial reduction, without good
business reasons, of the facilities and perquisites (including office space and
location) available to the Purchaser immediately prior to such reduction; (iii)
without the Purchaser's express written consent, a material reduction by the
Company in the base compensation of the Purchaser as in effect immediately prior
to such reduction, or the ineligibility of the Purchaser to continue to
participate in any long-term incentive plan of the Company; (iv) a material
reduction by the Company in the kind or level of employee benefits to which the
Purchaser is entitled immediately prior to such reduction with the result that
the Purchaser's overall benefits package is significantly reduced; (v) the
relocation of the Purchaser to a facility or a location more than 50 miles from
the Purchaser's then present location, without the Purchaser's express written
consent; (vi) any purported termination of the Purchaser by the Company which is
not effected for death or Disability or for Cause, or any purported termination
for which the grounds relied upon are not valid; or (vii) the failure of the
Company to obtain the assumption of this agreement by any successors
contemplated in Section 4(f) below.
(f) The Shares which have been released from the Company's
Repurchase Option shall be delivered to the Purchaser at the Purchaser's
request.
6. Restriction on Transfer. Except for the escrow described in Section 7
or transfer of the Shares to the Company or its assignees contemplated by this
Agreement, none of the Shares or any beneficial interest therein shall be
transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in any way until the release of
such Shares from the Company's Repurchase Option in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement, other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution.
7. Escrow of Shares.
(a) To ensure the availability for delivery of the Purchaser's
Unreleased Shares upon exercise of the Repurchase Option by the Company, the
Purchaser shall, upon execution of this Agreement, deliver and deposit with an
escrow holder designated by the Company (the "Escrow Holder") the share
certificates representing the Unreleased Shares, together with the Assignment
Separate from Certificate (the "Stock Assignment") duly endorsed in blank,
attached hereto as Exhibit A-1. The Unreleased Shares and Stock Assignment shall
be held by the Escrow Holder, pursuant to the Joint Escrow Instructions of the
Company and Purchaser attached as Exhibit A-2 hereto, until such time as the
Company's Repurchase Option expires. As a further condition to the Company's
obligations under this Agreement, the spouse of Purchaser, if any, shall execute
and deliver to the Company the Consent of Spouse attached hereto as Exhibit A-3.
(b) The Escrow Holder shall not be liable for any act it may do
or omit to do with respect to holding the Unreleased Shares in escrow and while
acting in good faith and in the exercise
5
6
of its judgment and the Company shall hold Escrow Holder harmless from any and
all such liability, including attorney's fees and other expenses of defending
against the assertion of any such claim.
(c) If the Company or any assignee exercises its Repurchase
Option hereunder, the Escrow Holder, upon receipt of written notice of such
option exercise from the proposed transferee, shall take all steps necessary to
accomplish such transfer.
(d) When the Repurchase Option has been exercised or expires
unexercised or a portion of the Shares has been released from such Repurchase
Option, upon Purchaser's request the Escrow Holder shall promptly cause a new
certificate to be issued for such released Shares and shall deliver such
certificate to the Company or the Purchaser, as the case may be.
(e) Subject to the terms hereof, the Purchaser shall have all the
rights of a shareholder with respect to such Shares while they are held in
escrow, including without limitation, the right to vote the Shares and receive
any cash dividends declared thereon. If, from time to time during the term of
the Company's Repurchase Option, there is (i) any stock dividend, stock split or
other change in the Shares, or (ii) any merger or sale of all or substantially
all of the assets or other acquisition of the Company, any and all new,
substituted or additional securities to which the Purchaser is entitled by
reason of the Purchaser's ownership of the Shares shall be immediately subject
to this escrow, deposited with the Escrow Holder and included thereafter as
"Shares" for purposes of this Agreement and the Company's Repurchase Option.
8. Company's Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Purchaser or
any transferee (either being sometimes referred to herein as the "Holder") may
be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of
law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to
purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this (the "Right of
First Refusal").
(a) Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall
deliver to the Company a written notice (the "Notice") stating: (i) the Holder's
bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of
each proposed purchaser or other transferee ("Proposed Transferee"); (iii) the
number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the
bona fide cash price or other consideration for which the Holder proposes to
transfer the Shares (the "Offered Price"), and the Holder shall offer the Shares
at the Offered Price to the Company or its assignee(s).
(b) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within thirty (30)
days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may, by
giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less than
all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the Proposed
Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with subsection (c)
below.
6
7
(c) Purchase Price. The purchase price ("Purchase Price") for the
Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section shall be
(i) the Offered Price in the case of Shares that are not Unreleased Shares, or
(ii) in the case of Shares that are Unreleased Shares, the lower of the Offered
Price or the Repurchase Price as defined in Section 4(a) hereof. If the Offered
Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the
non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the
Company in good faith.
(d) Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the
option of the Company or its assignee(s), (i) by cash or check, (ii) by
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder
to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee),
or (iii) by any combination thereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of the
Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.
(e) Xxxxxx's Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the
Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased by the
Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section, then the Holder may
sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at the
Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is
consummated within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the Notice
and provided further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in
accordance with any applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee
agrees in writing that the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to
the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in
the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, a
new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees
shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal before any Shares held by the
Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred.
(f) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary
contained in this Section notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all of the
Shares during the Purchaser's lifetime or on the Purchaser's death by will or
intestacy to the Purchaser's immediate family or a trust for the benefit of the
Purchaser's immediate family shall be exempt from the provisions of this
Section, provided that the Purchaser notifies the Company in writing within
thirty (30) days of said transfer. "Immediate Family" as used herein shall mean
spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In
such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares
so transferred subject to the provisions of this Agreement, including but not
limited to this Section and Section 4, and there shall be no further transfer of
such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section.
(g) Termination of Right of First Refusal. The Right of First Refusal
shall terminate as to any Shares upon the date of the first sale of Common Stock
of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed
with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the
1933 Act.
7
8
9. Restrictive Legends; Stop-Transfer Orders; Refusal to Transfer.
(a) Purchaser understands and agrees that the Company shall cause the
legends set forth below or legends substantially equivalent thereto, to be
placed upon any certificate(s) evidencing ownership of the Shares together with
any other legends that may be required by the Company or by applicable state or
federal securities laws:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE "ACT") AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL
REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO
THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES, SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE
OR HYPOTHECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE THEREWITH.
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL, AND A REPURCHASE
OPTION HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH IN THE
RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE
ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT
THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER. SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS, RIGHT
OF FIRST REFUSAL AND REPURCHASE OPTION ARE BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF
THESE SHARES.
(b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure
compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue
appropriate "stop transfer" instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and
that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate
notations to the same effect in its own records.
(c) Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to
transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in
violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner
of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser
or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.
10. Lock-Up Period. Purchaser hereby agrees that, if so requested by the
Company or any representative of the underwriters (the "Managing Underwriter")
in connection with any registration of the offering of any securities of the
Company under the Securities Act, Purchaser shall not sell or otherwise transfer
any Shares or other securities of the Company during the 180-day
8
9
period (or such other period as may be requested in writing by the Managing
Underwriter and agreed to in writing by the Company) (the "Market Standoff
Period") following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company
filed under the Securities Act. Such restriction shall apply only to the first
registration statement of the Company to become effective under the Securities
Act that includes securities to be sold on behalf of the Company to the public
in an underwritten public offering under the Securities Act. The Company may
impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities subject to the
foregoing restrictions until the end of such Market Standoff Period.
11. Tax Consequences. Set forth below is a brief summary as of the date of
grant of this Stock Purchase Right of some of the federal tax consequences of
exercise of this Stock Purchase Right and disposition of the Shares. THIS
SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT
TO CHANGE.
(a) Exercise of Stock Purchase Right. Generally, no income will be
recognized by Purchaser in connection with the exercise of the stock purchaser
right for shares subject to the Repurchase Option, unless an election under
Section 83(b) of the Code is filed with the Internal Revenue Service within 30
days of the date of exercise of the right to purchase stock. The form for making
this election is attached as Exhibit A-4 hereto. Otherwise, as the Company's
repurchase right lapses, Purchaser will recognize compensation income in an
amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the stock at the
time the Company's repurchase right lapses and the amount paid for the stock, if
any (the "Spread"). If Purchaser is an Employee or former Employee, the Spread
will be subject to tax withholding by the Company, and the Company will be
entitled to a tax deduction in the amount at the time the Purchaser recognizes
ordinary income with respect to a Stock Purchase Right.
(b) Disposition of Shares. Upon disposition of the Shares, any gain or
loss is treated as capital gain or loss. If the Shares are held for at least one
year, any gain realized on disposition of the shares will be treated as
long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes. Long-term capital gains
are grouped and netted by holding periods. Net capital gains on assets held for
more than 12 months is capped at 20%. Capital losses are allowed in full against
capital gains, and up to $3,000 against other income.
THE PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE PURCHASER'S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY
AND NOT THE COMPANY'S TO FILE TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF
THE PURCHASER REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON
THE PURCHASER'S BEHALF.
12. No Guarantee of Continued Service. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
THAT THE RELEASE OF SHARES FROM THE REPURCHASE OPTION OF THE COMPANY PURSUANT TO
SECTION 5 HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING SERVICE AS SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE
WILL OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED OR PURCHASING SHARES
HEREUNDER). PURCHASER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE
9
10
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO
NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A
SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL
NOT INTERFERE WITH PURCHASER'S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE
PURCHASER'S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT
CAUSE.
13. Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be
given by either the Company or the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered
personally or deposited in the U.S. mail, First Class with postage prepaid, and
addressed to the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth at the end of
this Agreement or such other address as a party may request by notifying the
other in writing.
Any notice to the Escrow Holder shall be sent to the Company's address with
a copy to the other party not sending the notice.
14. No Waiver. Either party's failure to enforce any provision or
provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of
any such provision or provisions, nor prevent that party from thereafter
enforcing each and every other provision of this Agreement. The rights granted
both parties herein are cumulative and shall not constitute a waiver of either
party's right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the
circumstances.
15. Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under
this Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and this Agreement shall inure
to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the
restrictions on transfer herein set forth, this Agreement shall be binding upon
Purchaser and his or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors and
assigns.
16. Interpretation. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this
Agreement shall be submitted by Purchaser or by the Company forthwith to the
Administrator which shall review such dispute at its next regular meeting. The
resolution of such a dispute by the Administrator shall be final and binding on
all parties.
17. Governing Law; Severability. This Agreement is governed by the internal
substantive laws but not the choice of law rules, of California.
18. Entire Agreement. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. This
Agreement (including the exhibits referenced herein), the Plan, and the
Investment Representation Statement constitute the entire agreement of the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their
entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Purchaser with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the
Purchaser's interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and
Purchaser.

Agreement subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Purchaser has

Dear Sirs:
As Escrow Agent for both Avanex Corporation, a California corporation (the

"Purchaser"), you are hereby authorized and directed to hold the documents
delivered to you pursuant to the terms of that certain Restricted Stock Purchase
Agreement ("Agreement") between the Company and the undersigned, in accordance
with the following instructions:
1. In the event the Company and/or any assignee of the Company (referred to
collectively for convenience herein as the "Company") exercises the Company's
repurchase option set forth in the Agreement (the "Repurchase Option"), the
Company shall give to Purchaser and you a written notice specifying the number
of shares of stock to be purchased, the purchase price, and the time for a
closing hereunder at the principal office of the Company. Purchaser and the
Company hereby irrevocably authorize and direct you to close the transaction
contemplated by such notice in accordance with the terms of said notice.
2. At the closing, you are directed (a) to date the stock assignments
necessary for the transfer in question, (b) to fill in the number of shares
being transferred, and (c) to deliver same, together with the certificate
evidencing the shares of stock to be transferred, to the Company or its

3. Purchaser irrevocably authorizes the Company to deposit with you any
certificates evidencing shares of stock to be held by you hereunder and any
additions and substitutions to said shares as defined in the Agreement.
Purchaser does hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint you as Purchaser's

shares of stock as are not then subject to the Company's Repurchase Option.
Within ninety (90) days after cessation of Purchaser's continuous employment by

number of shares held or issued pursuant to the Agreement and not purchased by
the Company or its assignees pursuant to exercise of the Company's Repurchase
Option.

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT
PURCHASER: XXXXXXX XXXXXXXX
COMPANY: AVANEX CORPORATION
SECURITY: COMMON STOCK
AMOUNT: 130,000 SHARES
DATE: NOVEMBER 19, 1999
In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, the
undersigned Purchaser represents to the Company the following:
(a) Purchaser is aware of the Company's business affairs and financial
condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to
(b) reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities.
Purchaser is acquiring these Securities for investment for Purchaser's own
account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
"distribution" thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act").
(c) Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the Securities constitute
"restricted securities" under the Securities Act and have not been registered
under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which
exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser's
investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, Purchaser understands
that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the statutory basis
for such exemption may be unavailable if Purchaser's representation was
predicated solely upon a present intention to hold these Securities for the
minimum capital gains period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale,
for or until an increase or decrease in the market price of the Securities, or
for a period of one (1) year or any other fixed period in the future. Purchaser
further understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they
are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such
registration is available. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that
the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities.
(d) Purchaser is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144,
each promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited
public resale of "restricted securities" acquired, directly or indirectly from
the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of
certain conditions. Rule 701 provides that if the issuer qualifies under Rule
701 at the time of the grant of the Stock Purchase Right to the Purchaser, the
exercise will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. In the event
the Company becomes subject to the reporting
20
requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
ninety (90) days thereafter (or such longer period as any market stand-off
agreement may require) the Securities exempt under Rule 701 may be resold,
subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions specified by Rule 144,
including: (1) the resale being made through a broker in an unsolicited
"broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a market maker (as said
term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); and, in the case of
an affiliate, (2) the availability of certain public information about the
Company, (3) the amount of Securities being sold during any three (3) month
period not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the
timely filing of a Form 144, if applicable.
In the event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701 at the time
of grant of the Stock Purchase Right, then the Securities may be resold in
certain limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which
requires the resale to occur not less than one (1) year after the later of the
date the Securities were sold by the Company or the date the Securities were
sold by an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and, in the
case of acquisition of the Securities by an affiliate, or by a non-affiliate who
subsequently holds the Securities less than two (2) years, the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in sections (1), (2), (3) and (4) of the paragraph
immediately above.
(e) Purchaser further understands that in the event all of the applicable
requirements of Rule 701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under the
Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration
exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144
and 701 are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission
has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement
securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to
Rules 144 or 701 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an
exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such
persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so
at their own risk. Purchaser understands that no assurances can be given that
any such other registration exemption will be available in such event.

B. Pledgor desires to provide a security interest in all of the
Pledgor's shares of Common
Stock of the Pledgee, all options, and similar rights to acquire such
capital stock or interests, and all rights to receive profits or surplus or
other dividends or distributions from the Pledgee to its shareholders, in each
case whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, wherever

represented by certificate number __, duly endorsed in blank or with executed
stock powers, and herewith delivers said certificate to the Secretary of Pledgee
("Pledgeholder"), who shall hold said certificate subject to the terms and
conditions of this Security Agreement.

for use in transferring all or a portion of the Shares to Pledgee if, as and
when required pursuant to this Security Agreement) shall be held by the
Pledgeholder as security for the repayment of the Note, and any extensions or
renewals thereof, to be executed by Pledgor pursuant to the terms of the
Agreement, and the Pledgeholder shall not encumber or dispose of such Shares
except in accordance with the provisions of this Security Agreement.

Note secured hereby, together with interest thereon, at the time and
in the manner provided in the Note.
(b) Encumbrances. The Shares are free of all other encumbrances,

in making any amendments to the Note or providing any additional
collateral as may be necessary to comply with such regulations.

payments of principal and interest are made as they become due under the terms
of the Note, Pledgor shall have the right to vote all of the Shares pledged

stock dividend, reclassification, readjustment or other changes are declared or
made in the capital structure of Pledgee, all new, substituted and additional
shares or other securities issued by reason of any such change shall be
delivered to and held by the Pledgee under the terms of this Security Agreement
in the same manner as the Shares originally pledged hereunder. In the event of
substitution of such securities, Pledgor, Pledgee and Pledgeholder shall
cooperate and execute such documents as are reasonable so as to provide for the
substitution of such Collateral and, upon such substitution, references to
"Shares" in this Security Agreement shall include the substituted shares of
capital stock of Pledgor as a result thereof.
(5) Options and Rights. In the event that, during the term of this pledge,
subscription Options or other rights or options shall be issued in connection
with the pledged Shares, such rights, Options and options shall be the property
of Pledgor and, if exercised by Pledgor, all new stock or other securities so
acquired by Pledgor as it relates to the pledged Shares then held by

the terms of this Security Agreement in the same manner as the Shares pledged.

Regulation G, there shall be released from this pledge a portion of the pledged
Shares held by Pledgeholder hereunder upon payments of the principal of the
Note. The number of the pledged Shares which shall be released shall be that

to act, as Pledgeholder.
