---------------
(a) If the Company shall receive, within 90 days of a change in
control of Evoke which change has been approved by Evoke's Board of Directors
after two years from the date hereof, written request from @viso that the

9(a), the Company shall, provided that such registration shall cover at least
the number of Common Shares that would result in an aggregate offering of at
least $10,000,000, use its best efforts to cause such Common Shares to be
registered and sold in a firmly committed underwritten public offering, subject
to customary terms and conditions, including indemnification by the Company of
selling Shareholders and underwriters; provided the Company is obligated to
--------
effect only one such public offering pursuant to this Section 9(a). The Company
may postpone for up to 180 days action to effect an offering pursuant to this
Section 9(a) if the Board of Directors determines that such offering could
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on any proposal or plan
by the Company to engage in any acquisition or merger or similar transaction.
(b) Six months after the Company's IPO, a Shareholder or Shareholders
holding at least 2,250,000 Shares (subject to adjustment for stock splits,
combinations and other changes in capitalization) shall be entitled to require
the Company to file or take other action to allow a public offering of Shares;
provided the company is obligated to effect only two such public offerings
--------
pursuant to this provision. In addition, if securities of the Company are
eligible for public sale by a short-form or abbreviated offering prospectus,
each Shareholder shall be entitled to require the Company to effect a public
offering at any time, provided such Shareholder can exercise such right only
--------
once every 12 months. The Company may postpone for up to 180 days action to
effect an offering pursuant to this Section 9(b) if the Board of Directors
determines that such offering could reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect on any proposal or plan by the Company to engage in any
acquisition or merger or similar transaction.
(c) If the Company effects a public offering of its equity
securities, other than its IPO or an offering in connection with an acquisition,
merger or similar transaction or a registration of securities under an employee
benefit plan, each Shareholder holding at least 2,250,000 Shares (subject to
adjustment for stock splits,
-9-
combinations or other changes in capitalization) shall be entitled to have all
or a portion of its Shares included in such offering except to the extent the
underwriters managing such offering advise the Company in writing that the
amount of Common Shares proposed to be sold is greater than the amount they
believe feasible to sell at that time on the terms approved by the Company, in
which case the number of Shares that may be included in such offering shall be
allocated first to the Company and second to the Shareholders pro rata based on
their respective number of Shares then held.
(d) In connection with any offering of Shares effected pursuant to
this Section 9, each selling Shareholder shall be responsible for any
underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to its Shares and the Company
shall be responsible for all other expenses, including, without limitation, all
filing, printers and accounting expenses, and fees and disbursements of counsel
for the Company and one counsel for the selling Shareholders. In addition, the
Company will provide customary indemnification for the selling Shareholders and
any underwriter of Shares sold by them.
(e) During the period beginning 10 days prior and ending 180 days
after the effective date of an underwritten public offering by the Company, the
Shareholders shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, offer or contract to sell,
grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to
an affiliate or pursuant to gifts to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any
Shares at any time during such period except Shares included in such offering.
(f) The rights pursuant to this Section 9 may be assigned by each
Shareholder together with any transfer of at least 50% of its Shares, provided
the transfer complies with the applicable terms of this Agreement.

been approved by the Board of Directors of Evoke, @viso will have the right to
acquire all, but not less than all, the Shares held by Evoke, which right will
be exercisable by notice to Evoke within 90 days following the public
announcement of such change of control. For the
-10-
purpose of this Section, the term "change in control" means a change in the
possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the
direction of the management and policies of such Shareholder, or any affiliate
directly or indirectly controlling such Shareholder, whether through the
ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.
(b) Within 60 days of a notice pursuant to paragraph (a) above, Evoke
or its successor will have the right to acquire all, but not less than all, the
Shares held by @viso, which right will supersede @viso's rights under paragraph
(a) above.
(c) The purchase price for Shares to be acquired under paragraphs (a)
or (b) above will be the greater of (x) the selling Shareholder's total
investment in the Company, including loans, plus interest thereon at 8% per
annum, and (y) the fair value of such Shares determined, at the option of the
acquiring party, on the basis of a total value of the Company equal to:
(A) 20 times the total revenues for the latest four quarters for
which financial statements are available; or
(B) as agreed by the parties.
If the parties are unable to agree on the value of Shares under clause (B)
above, and the difference between their valuations is less than 10% of the lower
valuation, the average between the valuations shall be used to determine fair
value. If the difference is greater than 10% of the lower valuation, the parties
shall engage an independent internationally recognized investment bank to
perform its own valuation, applying methods commonly used in the industry, which
shall be completed within 60 days. Of the three valuations, the valuation that
differs in magnitude most from the other two valuations shall be disregarded,
and the average between the two remaining valuations shall be used to determine
fair value. The fees and expenses of such investment bank will be shared equally
by the parties.
(d) At Evoke's election, Shares acquired under paragraph (b) above
may be purchased for the same consideration given in the Evoke change-in-control
transaction, whether cash or stock or both.
