WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue and to sell to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers
desire to purchase from the Company, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock (as hereinafter
defined), all in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties
and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Authorization of Securities. The Company has authorized the issuance and sale of
up to 597,469,749 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.00001 per share
(“Series A Preferred Stock”), which will be convertible into shares of the Company’s common
stock, par value $.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and which will have the rights,
preferences and privileges set forth in the form of Second Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation”). The shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is
convertible are sometimes referred to herein as the “Conversion Shares” and the shares of Series
A Preferred Stock and the Conversion Shares are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the
“Securities”.
2. Sale and Purchase of the Securities. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions
herein contained, the Company agrees to sell to the Purchasers, and each Purchaser agrees,
severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at the Closing (as defined below), the
number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock set forth in the column Shares Purchased opposite
such Purchaser’s name on Schedule I, for a purchase price per share of $0.10511 (the
“Purchase Price”), payable either in cash or by the surrender of instruments or other evidence of
indebtedness as described in Schedule I to the extent set forth therein.
3. Closing; Payment of Purchase Price. The closing (the “Closing”) with respect to
the transaction contemplated in Section 2 hereof shall take place at the offices of Ropes & Xxxx
LLP, Xxx Xxxxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx at 10:00 a.m. on February , 2004, or at
such other time and place as the Company and Purchasers may agree (the “Closing Date”). At
the Closing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a certificate representing the Series A
Preferred Stock which such Purchaser is purchasing at the Closing, registered in the name of such
Purchaser, against delivery to the Company by such Purchaser of a wire transfer in the amount of
the Purchase Price therefor. In the event that payment by a Purchaser is to be made, in whole or
in part, by cancellation of indebtedness, then such Purchaser shall surrender to the Company for
cancellation at the Closing any evidence of such indebtedness or shall execute an instrument of
cancellation in form and substance acceptable to the Company.
4. Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers; Register of Securities;
Restrictions on Transfer. Each Purchaser, severally as to itself and not jointly, represents
and warrants to the Company as of the Closing as follows:
4.1. Organization. In the case of a Purchaser that is an entity, such Purchaser is
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and has
all corporate, limited liability company, or partnership power (as the case may be) and authority
to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and instruments referred to herein
to which it is a party and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
4.2. Validity. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and the
other Transaction Documents and instruments referred to herein, in each case to which such
Purchaser is a party, and the consummation by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby, have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of such
Purchaser. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Purchaser, and the other
Transaction Documents and instruments referred to herein to which it is a party will be duly
executed and delivered by such Purchaser, and each such agreement constitutes or will constitute a
valid and binding obligation of such Purchaser enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.
4.3. Brokers. There is no broker, investment banker, financial advisor, finder or
other person which has been retained by or is authorized to act on behalf of such Purchaser who
might be entitled to any fee or commission for which the Company will be liable in connection with
the execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
4.4. Investment Representations and Warranties. Such Purchaser understands that the
issuance of the Securities to the Purchasers has not been, and will not be, registered under the
Securities Act.
4.5. Acquisition for Own Account. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities
for its own account for investment and not with a view toward distribution in a manner which
would violate the Securities Act.
4.6. Ability to Protect Its Own Interests and Bear Economic Risks. Such Purchaser, by
reason of the business and financial experience of its management, has the capacity to protect its
own interests in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities
and is able to sustain a loss of all of its investment in the Securities without economic hardship
if such a loss should occur.
4.7. Accredited Investor. Such Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is
defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
4.8. Access to Information. Such Purchaser has been given access to all Company
documents, records, and other information, and has had adequate opportunity to ask questions of,
and receive answers from, the Company’s officers, employees, agents, accountants, and
representatives concerning the Company’s business, operations, financial condition, assets,
liabilities, and all other matters relevant to its investment in the Securities. The
representations of Purchasers contained in this Section 4.8 shall not effect the ability of the
Purchasers to rely on the representations and warranties made by the Company pursuant to Section 5
of this Agreement.
4.9. Restricted Securities.
(a) Such Purchaser understands that the Securities will be characterized as
“restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being
acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under
such laws and applicable regulations such Securities may be resold without registration
under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.
(b) Such Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless
subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws
or an exemption from such registration is available.
(c) Such Purchaser is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act
which permit limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement.
4.10. No Public Market. Such Purchaser understands that no public market now exists
for any of the securities issued by the Company, that the Company has made no assurances that a
public market will ever exist for the Securities.
5. Representations and Warranties by the Company. The Company represents and warrants
to each Purchaser as of the Closing as follows:

issuance, as applicable, of the Series A Preferred Shares and the Conversion Shares) will not (a)
result in a violation of the Charter Documents, (b) conflict with or result in the breach of the
terms, conditions or provisions of or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse

binding obligation of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary, enforceable against the Company or

creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles. Except as set forth on
Schedule 5.9 hereof, there has not occurred any material breach, violation or default or
any event that, with the lapse of time, the giving of notice or the election of any person, or any
combination thereof, would constitute a material breach, violation or default by the Company or the
applicable Subsidiary under any such contract or, to the knowledge of the Company, by any other
person to any such contract. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has been notified that any
party to any Material Contract intends to cancel, terminate, not renew or exercise an option under
any Material Contract, whether in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or
otherwise.
5.10. Right of First Refusal; Stockholders Agreement; Voting and Registration Rights.
Except as set forth on Schedule 5.10, and except with respect to any rights granted to the
Purchasers pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, this
Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, no
party has any right of first refusal, right of first offer, right of co-sale, preemptive right or
other similar right regarding the Company’s securities. Except as set forth on Schedule
5.10, there are no provisions of the Charter Documents, no agreements to which the Company is a
party and no agreements by which the Company is bound other than the Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, which (a) may
affect or restrict the voting rights of the Purchasers with respect to the Securities in their
capacity as stockholders of the Company, (b) restrict the ability of the Purchasers, or any
successor thereto or assignee or transferee thereof, to transfer the Securities, (c) would
adversely affect the Company’s or any Purchaser’s right or ability to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or comply with the terms of the other Transaction Documents or the
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the transactions contemplated hereby or

Common Stock, voting together as a single class, to take or prevent any corporate action, other
than those matters requiring a class vote under Delaware law, or (e) entitle any party to nominate
or elect any director of the Company or require any of the Company’s stockholders to vote for any
such nominee or other person as a director of the Company in each case.

issued by the Company prior to the Closing Date have been issued in transactions exempt from the
registration requirements under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities or “blue
sky” laws, and in compliance with all applicable corporate laws. The Company has not violated the
Securities Act or any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws
in connection with the issuance of any shares of capital stock or other securities prior to
the Closing Date. The Company has not offered any of its capital stock, or any other securities,
for sale to, or solicited any offers to buy any of the foregoing from the Company, or otherwise
approached or negotiated with any other person in respect thereof, in such a manner as to require
registration under the Securities Act.
5.12. No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates or any
other person acting on the Company’s behalf, has directly or indirectly engaged in any form of
general solicitation or general advertising with respect to the Securities nor have any of such
persons made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under
circumstances that would require registration of the Securities under the Securities Act or cause
this offering of Securities to be integrated with any prior offering of securities of the Company
for purposes of the Securities Act.
5.13. Absence of Certain Changes; Financial Statements.
(a) The Company has provided to the Purchasers true and correct copies of its unaudited
consolidated balance sheet and the related statements of operation, accumulated deficit and
cash flows (including notes thereto) for the period from June 11, 2002 (the date of
inception) through October 31, 2003 (the “Balance Sheet Date”), and the unaudited
consolidated balance sheets dated as of October 31, 2003 and the related statements of
operation, accumulated deficit and cash flows for the nine months ended October 31, 2003
(the “Financial Statements”). The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with
GAAP and present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and operating
results of the Company as of the respective dates therein, and in the case of unaudited
Financial Statements, subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of
footnotes. The Financial Statements are in accordance with the books and records of the
Company.
(b) Except as set forth on Schedule 5.13 or as contemplated by this Agreement,
or in connection with the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, this Agreement
or the other Transaction Documents, since the Balance Sheet Date, there has not been:
(1) any declaration, setting aside or payment of any dividend or other
distribution with respect to any shares of capital stock of the Company or any
repurchase, redemption or other acquisition by the Company of any outstanding shares of its capital stock of the Company;
(2) any amendment of any term of any outstanding security of the
Company;
(3) any transaction or commitment made, or any contract, agreement or
settlement entered into, by (or judgment, order or decree affecting) the Company

material amount of assets) or any relinquishment by the Company of any contract or
other right, other than transactions, commitments,
contracts, agreements or settlements (excluding settlements of litigation and
tax proceedings) in the ordinary course of business or those contemplated by this
Agreement;
(4) any (w) grant of any severance or termination pay to (or amendment to any
such existing arrangement with) any director, officer or employee of the Company,
(x) entering into of any employment, deferred compensation, supplemental
retirement or other similar agreement (or any amendment to any such existing
agreement) with any director, officer or employee of the Company, (y) increase in,
or accelerated vesting and/or payment of, benefits under any existing severance or
termination pay policies or employment agreements or (z) increase in or
enhancement of any rights or features related to compensation, bonus or other
benefits payable to directors, officers or senior employees of the Company, in
each case, other than in the ordinary course of business consistent with past
practice; or
(5) any material tax election made or changed, any audit settled or any
amended tax returns filed.
5.14. No Undisclosed Material Liabilities. As of the date of this Agreement, there
are no liabilities of the Company or any Subsidiary of any kind whatsoever, whether
interest-bearing indebtedness, or liabilities accrued, contingent, absolute, determined,
determinable or otherwise, other than liabilities:
(a) reflected in the Financial Statements;
(b) disclosed on Schedule 5.14 hereto;
(c) incurred in the ordinary course of business which in the aggregate are less than
$100,000; or
(d) under this Agreement, or connected herewith, in the other Transaction
Documents or the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
5.15. Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.15, there is no action,
suit, investigation or other proceeding pending against, or to the knowledge of the Company
threatened against or affecting, the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their properties, or to the
knowledge of the Company, any of its officers or directors in their capacities as such, before any
court or arbitrator or any governmental body, agency or official. To the knowledge of the Company,
there are no facts that would cause a reasonable person to believe that such a proceeding would
likely result.
5.16. Taxes. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have properly filed all federal,
foreign, state, local, and other tax returns and reports which are required to be filed, which
returns and reports were properly completed and are true and correct in all material respects, and
all taxes, interest, and penalties due and owing have been timely paid, except where
any failure with respect thereto would not have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no
outstanding waivers or extensions of time with respect to the assessment or audit of any tax or tax
return of the Company or any Subsidiary, or claims now pending or matters under discussion with any
taxing authority in respect of any tax of the Company or any Subsidiary.
5.17. Employee Benefit Plans.
(a) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary maintains any “employee benefit plan”
subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) other
than as set forth on Schedule 5.17.
(b) No director, officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary will
become entitled to any retirement, severance or similar benefit or enhanced or accelerated
benefit (including any acceleration of vesting or lapse of repurchase rights or
obligations with respect to any employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or other benefit
under any compensation plan or arrangement of the Company or any Subsidiary (each, an
“Employee Benefit Plan”)) solely as a result of the transactions contemplated in this
Agreement; and (ii) no payment made or to be made to any current or former employee of
director of the Company or any Subsidiary, or any of their Affiliates by reason of the
transactions contemplated hereby (whether alone or in connection with any other event,
including, but not limited to, a termination of employment) will constitute an “excess
parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code.
(c) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all applicable
federal, state, local and foreign statutes, laws (including, without limitation, common
law), judicial decisions, regulations, ordinances, rules, judgments, orders and codes
respecting employment, employment practices, labor, terms and conditions of employment and
wages and hours, and no work stoppage or labor strike against the Company or any
Subsidiary is pending or threatened, nor is the Company or any Subsidiary involved in or
threatened with any labor dispute, grievance or litigation relating to labor matters

knowledge of the Company, after reasonable investigation, neither the execution, delivery
or performance of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of the Company’s businesses by the employees of the Company or any
Subsidiary, nor the conduct of the Company’s businesses as presently or proposed to be
conducted, will 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
such key employee is obligated, and which conflict, breach or default would be materially
adverse to the Company.
(e) The Company and each Subsidiary have entered into acceptable non-compete,
confidentiality and proprietary information and invention agreements, using the form of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit E or a form containing substantially similar
provisions, with all members of senior management thereof, seeking to protect, among other

unencumbered ownership by the Company of all Company Intellectual Property. The Company,

her immediate family is currently indebted to the Company or any Subsidiary, nor is the Company or
any Subsidiary indebted (or committed to make loans or extend or guarantee credit) to any of such
individuals, except for amounts incurred in the ordinary course of business for expense
reimbursement and accrued payroll. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.22, as of the date
hereof none of such persons has any direct or indirect ownership interest in any firm or
corporation with which the Company or any Subsidiary is affiliated or with which the Company or
any Subsidiary has a business relationship, or any firm or corporation that competes with the
Company except that employees, officers, or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary and members
of their immediate families may own stock in an amount not to exceed 1% of the outstanding capital
stock of publicly traded companies that may compete with the Company. As of the date hereof,
except as set forth on Schedule 5.22, no employee, director, officer or stockholder of the

director or stockholder is directly or indirectly interested in any contract with the Company or

business relationships with FAC Acquisition, LLC, Petters Group, LLC,
PCI, or any Affiliates thereof (each, a “Petters Entity,” and collectively, the “Petters
Entities”)

the knowledge of the Company after reasonable investigation, each agreement and business
relationship between the Company and any Petters Entity (each a “Petters Agreement”) is not
commercially unreasonable. No Petters Entity has notified the Company that it intends to
terminate, cancel or amend any of the material terms of any Petters Agreement or to take any
action with respect to any Petters Agreement that is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
5.23. Title to Property and Assets. The Company does not own any real property.
Except as set forth on Schedule 5.23, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries own or have
legally enforceable rights to use or hold for use their personal property and assets free and
clear of all Encumbrances except Encumbrances that, individually or in the aggregate, do not and
would not materially detract from the value of any asset or property of the Company or any
Subsidiary or materially interfere with the use or contemplated use of any personal property of
the Company or any Subsidiary. With respect to any real property, neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary is in violation in any material respect of any of its leases. All machinery, equipment,
furniture, fixtures and other personal property and all buildings, structures and other
facilities, if any, including, without limitation, office or other space used by the Company or
any Subsidiary in the conduct of its business, are in good operating condition and fit for
operation in the ordinary course of business (subject to normal wear and tear) except for any
defects which will not interfere with the conduct of normal operations of the Company. The Company
has delivered to the Purchaser true and complete copies of any leases related to the real property
used by the Company and its Subsidiaries in the conduct of their business.
5.24. Disclosure. (i) No representation or warranty by the Company contained in this
Agreement, (ii) no representation, warranty or statement by the Company contained in any
certificate or schedule furnished at the Closing to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement, and

Schedules hereto and any certificates delivered hereunder, contains any untrue statement by the
Company of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make any statement
herein or therein not misleading. All information relating to or concerning the Company and the
Subsidiaries, set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, in the Schedules hereto
and any certificates delivered hereunder, is true and correct in all material respects and the
Company has not omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made
herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
Except for those matters that have been disclosed to the Purchasers, to the Company’s knowledge
after reasonable investigation, there are no facts in existence as of the date of this Agreement
related to the Company’s business which have had or are reasonably likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect and which, if learned by the Purchasers, might reasonably be expected to materially
diminish the Purchasers’ evaluation of the worth or profitability of the technology or the
business or which, if learned by the Purchasers, might reasonably be expected to deter the
Purchasers from completing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on the terms of this
Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to general economic
conditions and matters generally affecting the markets in which the Company conducts its business.

the Company, certified by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and of the By-laws of

incorporation and By-laws are in full force and effect. The minute books of the Company provided
to the Purchasers or their counsel contain a complete summary of all meetings and actions by
written consent of directors and stockholders since the time of incorporation and reflect all
transactions referred to in such minutes accurately in all material respects.

contrary. All references in this Agreement to a “holder” of any Securities shall mean the Person in
whose name such Securities are at the time registered on such register.
8.2. Replacement of Certificates. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to
the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificate representing

surrender of such certificate for cancellation at the office of the Company maintained pursuant to
Section 9.1 hereof, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new
certificate representing Securities of like tenor.

Any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any

hereby shall be brought in any federal or state court located in the State of New York, and each
of the parties hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate
appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying
of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit,
action or proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the
world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the
foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 12.2
shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.
11.10. Waiver of Jury Trial.
TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, THE INVESTORS AND
THE COMPANY HEREBY WAIVE, AND COVENANT THAT NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR THE INVESTORS WILL ASSERT, ANY
RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY ISSUE IN ANY PROCEEDING, WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR
OTHERWISE, IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE, CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR
BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR THEREOF OR IN ANY
WAY CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE INVESTORS AND THE COMPANY
HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER IN

Company may file an original counterpart or a copy of this Section 12.10 with any court as written
evidence of the consent of the Purchasers and the Company to the waiver of its right to trial by
jury.
11.11. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, with the
same effect as if all parties had signed the same document. All such counterparts shall be
deemed an
original, shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same
instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received
counterparts hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto.
11.12. Entire Agreement. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and
the Transaction Documents contain the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to
the subject matter hereof and thereof and such agreements supersede and replace all other prior
agreements, written or oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof
and thereof.
11.13. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be found by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereby waive such provision to
the extent that it is found to be invalid or unenforceable. Such provision shall, to the maximum
extent allowable by law, be modified by such court so that it becomes enforceable, and, as
modified, shall be enforced as any other provision hereof, all the other provisions hereof
continuing in full force and effect.
11.14. Exculpation Among Purchasers. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it is not
relying upon any person, firm or corporation, other than the Company and its officers and
directors, in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company. Each Purchaser agrees
that no Purchaser nor the respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents,
or employees of any Purchaser shall be liable to any other Purchaser for any action heretofore or
hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the
Securities.
11.15. Non-Disclosure. Each Purchaser agrees to use the same degree of care as such
Purchaser uses to protect its own confidential information to keep confidential any proprietary or
other information furnished to such Purchaser that the Company maintains in confidence (so long as
such information is not in the public domain), except that such Purchaser may disclose such
proprietary or confidential information (i) to any partner (limited or otherwise), subsidiary or
parent of such Purchaser for the purpose of evaluating its investment in the Company as long as
such partner, subsidiary or parent is advised of the confidentiality provisions of this Section
11.15, (ii) at such time as the Company voluntarily discloses such information to the public or
such information otherwise enters the public domain through no fault of such Purchaser, (iii) that
is communicated to it free of any obligation of confidentiality, or (iv) that is developed by
Purchaser or its agents independently of and without reference to any confidential information
communicated by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto may disclose to any
and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and the tax structure of this
transaction, and all materials of any kind related to such tax treatment and tax structure.
11.16. Treatment of Accrual Amount. An amount equal to $799,167 (the “Accrual
Amount”), representing the total accrued and unpaid interest on certain promissory notes issued by
the Company in favor of FAC Acquisition, LLC and PCI (the “Petters Notes”), which Petters Notes
were exchanged for or converted into Series A Preferred Stock at the
Closing, will not be paid or converted into Series A Preferred Stock at the Closing and will
not accrue additional interest in accordance with the Petters Notes or in any other manner. After
the Closing, will not be paid or converted into Series A Preferred Stock at the Closing and
will not accrue additional interest in accordance with the Petters Notes or in any other manner.
After the
Closing, the Accrual Amount will continue to be reflected as accrued interest on the
financial statements of the Company. One half of the Accrual Amount will be payable to the Petters
Entity designated by PCI at the end of the Company’s first fiscal quarter after the Company’s first
fiscal year during which it has positive net income, as reflected on the Company’s consolidated
audited financial statements. One half of the Accrual Amount will be payable to the Petters Entity
designated by PCI after or in connection with a transaction or series of transactions in which Xxxx
Capital and its Affiliates and Battery Ventures and its Affiliates receive consideration with a
value in excess of 250% of the total amount invested by such entities in the equity securities of
the Company. The consideration in such transaction shall be in the form of cash or equity
securities that are listed on a national securities exchange or NASDAQ national market that are
either (i) subject to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii)
immediately salable by the holder and all of its Affiliates without registration under the
Securities Act pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. The fair market value of any
securities received in a transaction will be determined in as mutually agreed by the Board of
Directors of the Company and the holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the then
outstanding Series A Preferred Stock; provided, however, that if such mutual agreement
cannot be reached, such fair market value shall be determined by following the procedures set forth
in the definition of Appraisal Procedure in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Stock Purchase Agreement to be duly
executed as of the day and year first above written.
