THIS SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT is made as of the 30th day
of March, 2001, by and among USDATA Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company") and SCP Private Equity Partners II, L.P., a Delaware limited
--------
partnership (the "Investor").
--------
In consideration of the mutual promises hereinafter set forth, the parties
hereto, each intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale.
-----------------
1.1 Sale and Issuance of Series C Preferred Stock.
---------------------------------------------
(a) The Company shall adopt and file with the Secretary of State of
Delaware, on or before the Closing (as defined below), a Certificate of
Designation in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Designation").
--------- -----------
(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Investor
agrees to purchase at the Closing, and the Company agrees to sell and issue to
the Investor at the Closing, (i) 37,500 shares of the Company's Series C-1
Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series C-1 Preferred Stock"),
--------------------------
and (ii) a warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase up to 75,000 shares of the
-------
Company's Series C-2 Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series C-2
----------
Preferred Stock") (at an initial exercise price of $40.00 per share), for an
---------------
aggregate purchase price of $1,500,000. The Series C-1 Preferred Stock and the
Series C-2 Preferred Stock are sometimes collectively and individually referred
to as "Series C Preferred Stock". The rights, privileges and preferences of the
------------------------
Series C Preferred Stock shall be as stated in the Designation, and the Warrant
shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. As used herein,
---------
the term "Securities" means the shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the
----------
Warrant to be issued and sold hereunder.
1.2 Closing. The purchase, sale and issuance of the Securities shall take
-------
place at the offices of Xxxx Xxxxx LLP, Centre Square West, 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx,
00/xx/ Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx XX 00000-0000 at 10:00 a.m. on March 30, 2001, or at
such other place and time as the Company and the Investor mutually agree upon
(which time is designated as the "Closing").
-------
1.3 Consideration. At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to the
-------------
Investor, certificates representing the Securities being sold to the Investor
hereunder pursuant to Section 1.1(b) against payment of $1,500,000 by the
Investor of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer.
1.4 Option Preferred Stock. On the basis of the representations,
----------------------
warranties and agreements herein contained, and upon the terms but subject to
the conditions herein set forth and the approval of the Company's stockholders
as set forth in Section 2.5, the Investor commits to purchase an additional
37,500 shares of the Series C-1 Preferred Stock (the "Option Preferred Stock")
----------------------
at the purchase price of $40.00 per share of Option Preferred Stock at the
option of the Company. The Company may exercise its right to sell shares of the
Option
Preferred Stock on or before the expiration of 9 months after the date of
Closing, but not before 2 months after the date of Closing, by means of a
written notice therefore to the Investor (each, a "Notice") which certifies (a)
------
the Company's compliance with the specified monthly "EBITDA Targets" and
"Revenue Targets" as stated in the Budget and Financial Management Plan (the
"Plan") attached hereto as Exhibit C for three consecutive months prior to the
---- ---------
date of such notice, (b) the Company's then current need for an installment of
the purchase price for the Option Preferred Stock (the "Purchase Price
--------------
Installment"), including that (i) such need is necessary for the Company to keep
-----------
a positive cash balance for the then current month and that (ii) the need does
not arise out of the Company falling out of compliance with the specified EBITDA
Targets and Revenue Targets set in the Plan and (c) the Board's approval of such
Notice. Each Notice must be received by the Investor not less than ten business
days prior to the desired date of payment and must be accompanied by financial
information from the Company confirming to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Investor the accuracy of the certifications contained in the Notice. The
purchase and sale of the Option Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section may
take place in one or more closings at such times or places as the Company and
the Investor may mutually agree (each a "Subsequent Closing"). At each
------------------
Subsequent Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Investor a certificate or
certificates, registered in the Investor's name, representing such number of
shares of Option Preferred Stock purchasable for the amount of the Purchase
Price Installment therefore, against payment of the Purchase Price Installment
therefore, by check payable to the Company or wire transfer in accordance with
the Company's instructions. The Investor's obligation to purchase the Option
Preferred Stock at a Subsequent Closing is conditioned upon the Investor's
receipt of a certificate, dated as of the date of such Subsequent Closing (the
"Subsequent Closing Date"), and signed by an executive officer of the Company,
-----------------------
certifying that the representations contained in Section 2 of this Agreement,
are true and correct at and as of such Subsequent Closing Date.
2. Representations and Warranties regarding the Company. The Company
----------------------------------------------------

otherwise, or any change in the current equity ownership of the Company or any
of its subsidiaries. The foregoing includes, without limitation, actions, suits,
proceedings or investigations pending or, to the best of the Company's
knowledge, threatened involving the prior employment of any of the Company's or
any of its subsidiaries' employees or consultants, their use in connection with
the Company's or any of its subsidiaries' business of any information or

Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto. The Company, after
---------
reasonable investigation, is not aware that any of the Company's or its

agreements specified in this Section 2.11, and the Company and its subsidiaries
will use their reasonable efforts to prevent any such violation.
2.12 Patents and Trademarks. The Disclosure Schedule contains a complete
----------------------
and accurate list of all (i) patented or registered Intellectual Property Rights
(as defined below) owned or used by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii)
pending patent applications and applications for registrations of other
Intellectual Property Rights filed by the Company or any its subsidiaries and
(iii) unregistered trade names and corporate names owned or used by the Company
or any of its subsidiaries. The Disclosure Schedule also contains a complete and
accurate list of all licenses and other rights granted by the Company or any of
its subsidiaries to any third party with respect to any Intellectual Property
Rights and all licenses and other rights granted by any third party to the
Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to any Intellectual Property
Rights, in each case identifying the subject Intellectual Property Rights but
not including licenses arising from the purchase of standard "off the shelf"
products. The Company or a subsidiary of the Company owns all right, title and
interest in and to all of the Intellectual Property Rights listed on the
Disclosure Schedule free and clear of all liens, encumbrances or claims of
others except liens, encumbrances and claims of others with respect to third-
party licenses. Except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule, the Company or a
subsidiary of the Company owns all right, title and interest to, or has the
right to use pursuant to a valid license, all Intellectual Property Rights, as
they currently exist, necessary for the operation of the business of the Company
and its subsidiaries as presently conducted and as presently proposed to be
conducted, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances or claims of others except
liens, encumbrances and claims of others with respect to third-party licenses.
The Company and its subsidiaries have taken all necessary and desirable actions
to maintain and protect the Intellectual Property Rights that each of them own.
To the best of the Company's
6
knowledge, the owners of any Intellectual Property Rights licensed to the
Company or any of its subsidiaries have taken all necessary and desirable
actions to maintain and protect the Intellectual Property Rights that are
subject to such licenses. There have been no claims made against the Company or
any of its subsidiaries asserting the invalidity, misuse or unenforceability of
any of such Intellectual Property Rights, and to the best of the Company's
knowledge, there are no valid grounds for the same. Neither the Company nor any
of its subsidiaries has received any notices of, and the Company is not aware of
any facts which indicate a likelihood of, any infringement or misappropriation
by, or conflict with, any third party with respect to such Intellectual Property
Rights (including, without limitation, any demand or request that the Company or
any of its subsidiaries license any rights from a third party). To the best of
the Company's knowledge, the conduct of the Company's and each of its
subsidiaries' business has not infringed, misappropriated or conflicted with and
does not infringe, misappropriate or conflict with any Intellectual Property
Rights of others, nor to the best of the Company's belief would any future
conduct as presently contemplated infringe, misappropriate or conflict with any
Intellectual Property Rights of others. To the best of the Company's knowledge,
the Intellectual Property Rights owned by or licensed to the Company or any of
its subsidiaries have not been infringed upon, or misappropriated by or conflict
with others. The transactions contemplated by this Agreement will have no
material adverse effect on the Company's or any of its subsidiaries' right,
title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property Rights listed on the
Disclosure Schedule. To the best of the Company's knowledge, none of the
Company's nor any of its subsidiaries' employees is obligated under any contract
(including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement,
or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative
agency, that would interfere with the use of his or her best efforts to promote
the interests of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or that would conflict
with the Company's or any of its subsidiaries' business as presently conducted
and to the best of the Company's belief as presently proposed to be conducted.
Neither the execution of this Agreement nor the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement nor the carrying on of the Company's or each of its subsidiaries'
business by the employees of the Company and each of its subsidiaries, nor the
conduct of the Company's or each of its subsidiaries' business as presently
conducted or presently proposed to be conducted, will, to the best of the
Company's knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms,
conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract,
covenant or instrument under which any of such employees is now obligated. The
Company does not believe it is or will be necessary for the Company or any of
its subsidiaries to utilize any inventions of any of the Company's or any of its
subsidiaries' employees (or people it currently intends to hire) made prior to
their employment by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, as applicable. For
purposes of this Agreement, "Intellectual Property Rights" means all (i)

of the Warrant to be issued to the Investor hereunder and the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock issued or issuable to
the Investor hereunder or under the Warrant issued to the Investor hereunder,
are being acquired for investment for the Investor's own account, not as a
nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part
thereof, and the Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any

---------------------
of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend

applicable regulations such securities may be resold without
12
registration under the Securities Act, only in certain limited circumstances. In
this connection, the Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144

Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to
Rule 144 except in unusual circumstances or unless required by a transfer agent.
Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b) above, no such
registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer
by an Investor that is a partnership to a partner of such partnership or a
retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the
estate of any such partner or retired partner or the transfer by gift, will or
intestate succession of any partner to his or her spouse or to the siblings,
lineal descendants or ancestors of such partner or his or her spouse, if the
transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same
extent as if he or she were an original Investor hereunder.

-------
Securities, the Series C Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant
and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock
issued or issuable to the Investor hereunder or under the Warrant to be issued
