(i) The Initial Notes shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the Initial Notes Closing Date through the date of repayment and the Additional Notes shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the applicable Additional Notes Closing Date on which such Additional Notes are issued through the date of repayment, in each case, at the rate of 8.0% simple interest per annum (subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms hereof, the “Interest Rate”), payable semi-annually in arrears on the last Business Day of each applicable fiscal quarter of the Company beginning with the first full fiscal quarter of the Company following the fiscal quarter in which the Initial Notes Closing Date or the applicable Additional Notes Closing Date, as applicable, occurs; provided, however, that (a) while any Event of Default exists, the Interest Rate (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) shall automatically, from and after the date of occurrence of such Event of Default, increase to a rate per annum equal to 11.0% and (b) any interest payment that would otherwise be due pursuant to this Section 2.2(i) on the last Business Day of the fiscal quarter of the Company ending on or about December 31, 2013 shall instead be due on January 6, 2014.

(ii) Interest under clause (i) shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day year, as the case may be, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on the principal of any Note, the date on which the Initial Closing Date or the applicable Additional Closing Date, as applicable, occurs shall be included and the date of payment of such principal amount shall be excluded.

(iii) Interest shall be payable either entirely in cash or shares of Common Stock, at the option of the Company; provided that (i) at any time from and after the date that is eighteen (18) months after the consummation of the Tandberg Acquisition that the Initial Investor holds 20% or more of the then outstanding Common Stock, the Initial Investor (and not the Company) shall have the option to determine whether the applicable interest payment payable to the Initial Investor during such time is payable in cash or Common Stock and (ii) except to the extent determined by the Initial Investor pursuant to clause (i) of this proviso, in no event shall the Company pay interest on the Notes in Common Stock if, after giving effect to any such payment, the Initial Investor would hold 80% or more of the then outstanding Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Section 2.2(iii) to any Holder shall be determined by dividing the amount of interest due to such Holder by the Company Average Closing Price with such interest payment due date as the Valuation Date (rounded down to the nearest whole share); provided that the Company may not pay interest in stock at a price per share lower than, in the case of the Initial Notes, $0.98 and, in the case of the Additional Notes, $0.90 (in each case, as adjusted from time to time for stock splits, stock dividends, subdivisions, combinations, reclassifications, recapitalizations and the like) and in the event of a share price lower than, in the case of the Initial Notes, $0.98 and, in the case of the Additional Notes, $0.90, the Company shall have the option to pay interest in a combination of stock and cash so long as the number of shares that the Company may issue shall not exceed the quotient obtained by dividing the interest payable at such time by, in the case of the Initial Notes, $0.98 and, in the case of the Additional Notes, $0.90, and the difference between the amount of such interest paid in shares and the Company Average Closing Price of the stock so issued shall be payable in cash.

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2, in no event shall the rate of interest payable by the Company with respect to any Note exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law.

2.3 Repayment.

(i) The unpaid principal amount of the Initial Notes, all accrued and unpaid interest, and all other amounts owed in connection with the Initial Notes shall be paid in full no later than the Initial Notes Maturity Date. The unpaid principal amount of the Additional Notes, all accrued and unpaid interest, and all other amounts owed in connection with the Additional Notes shall be paid in full no later than the Additional Notes Maturity Date.

(ii) In the event that, prior to the 18-month anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, (a) a judgment is entered in the BDT Litigation or (b) the BDT Litigation is settled, or otherwise resolved, the Company may, at its option by written notice delivered to the Purchasers within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any cash payable in respect of such judgment, order, settlement or resolution, prepay the Initial Notes, at 100% of the principal amount being prepaid, in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the amount of the cash received by the Company pursuant to such judgment, order, settlement or resolution and (y) fifty percent (50%) of the original principal amount of the Initial Notes originally issued hereunder together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in each case in consideration for the payment of an amount equal to $2.00 (as adjusted from time to time for stock splits, stock dividends,

subdivisions, combinations, reclassifications, recapitalizations and the like) times the number of shares of Common Stock into which such principal and accrued and unpaid interest being prepaid are convertible as of the date of such prepayment. On or prior to the date that is ninety (90) days following the consummation of the Tandberg Acquisition, the Company may, at its option, prepay the Additional Notes in full or in part, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount so prepaid. Other than as set forth in this Section 2.3(ii), the Notes may not be voluntarily prepaid.

(iii) If the Notes are accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 hereof, then the Company, in addition to any other amounts which may be due and owing hereunder, shall immediately pay to the Holders, in accordance with their pro rata shares thereof, the unpaid principal amount of the Notes, all accrued and unpaid interest, and all other amounts owed in connection with the Notes.

(iv) All payments in respect of the Notes shall be paid to the Holders on a pro rata basis. Except as expressly set forth herein, all payments made on account of the Notes shall be applied first to the payment of any costs of enforcement then due hereunder, second to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest then due hereunder, and the remainder, if any, shall be applied to the unpaid principal balance of the Notes. The Company’s obligations under the Notes shall be paid without deduction, set off or recoupment and are absolute and irrevocable.

(v) If any party to the Acquisition Agreement terminates the Acquisition Agreement pursuant to Article 10 of the Acquisition Agreement, the Company shall, no later than ninety (90) days after such termination, prepay the Additional Notes in full, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

2.4 Conversion.

(i) Any Holder may elect to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Holder’s Note into that number of fully paid and nonassessable whole shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.4(xi)) as is obtained by dividing the principal amount of the Note to be converted by the Conversion Price applicable to such Note (as adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.4), rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(ii) Such rights of conversion shall be exercised by the Holder by surrender of the Note or Notes representing the principal amount to be converted to the Company at its principal office (or such other office or agency of the Company as the Company may designate by notice in writing to the Holders of the Notes) at any time during its usual business hours on the date set forth in such notice, together with a properly completed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 (in the case of the Initial Notes) or Exhibit B-2 (in the case of the Additional Notes) with a statement of the name or names (with address), subject to compliance with applicable laws to the extent such designation shall involve a transfer, in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock, shall be issued. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected and the Conversion Price shall be determined as of the close of business on the date on which such written notice shall have been received by

the Company and the Note or Notes representing the principal amount to be converted shall have been surrendered as aforesaid.

(iii) Upon any conversion of any Note, the Company shall pay to the holder of such Note in cash or Common Stock (at the option of the Company or the Initial Investor, determined in the same manner set forth in Section 2.2(iii) above) all accrued and unpaid interest to the date of conversion.

(iv) No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of any Note into Common Stock. In lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes into Common Stock, the Company shall pay to the converting Holder an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying the Company Average Closing Price of one share of Common Stock as of the date of conversion by the fractional share interest to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled.

(v) In case the principal amount represented by the Note or Notes surrendered pursuant to Section 2.4(ii) exceeds the principal amount converted, the Company shall upon such conversion, execute and deliver to the Holder thereof at the expense of the Company, a new Note for the principal amount represented by the Note or Notes surrendered which is not to be converted.

(vi) If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while any of the Notes are outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date upon which such change shall become effective shall be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such change and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such change.

(vii) If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another corporation shall be effected (in each case other than a Change in Control or Event of Default), then, as a condition of such reorganization or reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Holder of a Note or Notes shall thereafter have the right to receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the Conversion Shares immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of such Note or Notes, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Conversion Shares equal to the number of Conversion Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion of the Notes, had such reorganization, reclassification,

consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of such holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of such conversion rights. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holders of the Notes such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holders may be entitled to receive, and the other obligations hereunder.

(viii) In case the Company shall fix a payment date for the making of a distribution to all holders of Common Stock (including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation) of evidences of indebtedness or assets, or subscription rights or warrants, the Conversion Price to be in effect after such payment date shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such payment date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by the Company Average Closing Price per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date, less the fair market value (as mutually determined by the Board and the Required Holders) of said assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed, or of such subscription rights or warrants, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by such Company Average Closing Price per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date.

(ix) An adjustment to the Conversion Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment. In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2.4, Holders of the Notes shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon the conversion of the Notes shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Conversion Shares contained herein.

(x) Upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, then, and in each such case the Company shall give written notice thereof by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to each Holder of the Notes affected by such adjustment, which notice shall state the Conversion Price resulting from such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.

(xi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.4, prior to the approval of the conversion of the Notes by the shareholders of the Company, the number of Conversion Shares that may be acquired by any Holder of a Note upon the conversion of its Notes shall be limited to the extent necessary to ensure that, following such exercise (or

other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act does not exceed 19.99% of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding (including for such purposes the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(xii) On the first Trading Day immediately following the date that the closing bid price of the Common Stock as reported on Nasdaq exceeds two (2) times the Conversion Price for the Initial Notes or one and a half (1.5) times the Conversion Price for the Additional Notes, as applicable, for ten (10) consecutive Trading Days during which one (1) or more shares of the Common Stock actually traded on each such Trading Day, the Company may, at its option, convert such Initial Notes or Additional Notes, as applicable, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable whole shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.4(xi) above) as is obtained by multiplying the principal amount of such Note by the Conversion Price applicable to such Note (as adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.4), rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(xiii) At any such time as (a) Initial Notes having an aggregate principal amount representing more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of all Initial Notes issued pursuant to this Agreement (the “Initial Note Majority”) have converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof (excluding for the purposes of such calculation all Initial Notes converted pursuant to Section 2.3(ii)) or (b) the holders of the Initial Note Majority elect to convert their Initial Notes, then all remaining outstanding Initial Notes shall automatically convert into such number of fully paid and nonassessable whole shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.4(xi) above) as is obtained by multiplying the principal amount of such Note plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon by the Conversion Price (as adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.4), rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(xiv) At any such time as (a) Additional Notes having an aggregate principal amount representing more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of all Initial Notes issued pursuant to this Agreement (the “Additional Note Majority”) have converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof or (b) the holders of the Additional Note Majority elect to convert their Additional Notes, then all remaining outstanding Additional Notes shall automatically convert into such number of fully paid and nonassessable whole shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.4(xi) above) as is obtained by multiplying the principal amount of such Note plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon by the Conversion Price (as adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.4), rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(xv) Immediately upon the Company’s filing with the SEC of a preliminary proxy statement for the purpose of calling a special meeting of its shareholders (the “Special Meeting”) to vote, among other things, on the approval of the issuance of the shares of Company common stock to be issued in the Tandberg Acquisition (the “Preliminary Proxy Statement”), all outstanding Initial Notes shall automatically convert into such number of fully paid and nonassessable whole shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitations set forth in

Section 2.4(xi) above) as is obtained by multiplying the principal amount of such Initial Note plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon by the Conversion Price (as adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.4), rounded down to the nearest whole share. For the avoidance of doubt, all Initial Notes other than those that may not be converted as a result of the 19.99% limitation contained in Section 2.4(xi) above shall automatically convert pursuant to the preceding sentence.

2.5 Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.5, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company under any Transaction Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Company) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Company, then the Company shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Holder receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Company. The Company shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify each Holder, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Holder or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Holder and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Holder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Reserved.

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Company to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.5, the Company shall deliver to the applicable Holder(s) the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Holders.

(g) Status of Holders. (i) Any Holder that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Transaction

Document shall deliver to the Company, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Holder, if reasonably requested by the Company, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company as will enable the Company to determine whether or not such Holder is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.5(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Holder’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Holder to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Holder.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Holder that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company on or prior to the date on which such Holder becomes a Holder under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Holder is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Holder shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Company) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Holder becomes a Holder under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) in the case of a Foreign Holder claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Transaction Document, executed originals of IRS Form W 8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Transaction Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Holder claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate in form reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that such Foreign Holder is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or

(iv) to the extent a Foreign Holder is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate in form reasonably acceptable to the Company, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Holder is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Holder are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Holder may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate in form reasonably acceptable to the Company on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Holder shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Company) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Holder becomes a Holder under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Company to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Holder under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Holder were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Holder shall deliver to the Company at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company as may be necessary for the Company to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Holder has complied with such Holder’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Holder agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Company in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.5 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.5), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such

refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.5 shall survive the assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Holder and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations.

2.6. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Holders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Holder requires the Company to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Holder or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Holder pursuant to Section 2.5, then such Holder shall (at the request of the Company) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Notes hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Holder, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.5 in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Holder to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Holder.

(b) Replacement of Holders. If the Company is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Holder or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Holder pursuant to Section 2.5 and, in each case, such Holder has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.6(a), then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, thirty (30) days following notice to such Holder, (i) redeem the Notes of such Holder in full at 100% of the principal amount being redeemed or (ii) require such Holder to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.1), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.5) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Transaction Documents to a permitted assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Holder, if a Holder accepts such assignment); provided that:

(x) such Holder shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Notes, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (as applicable);

(y) in the case of any assignment, such assignment will result in a reduction in such payments thereafter; and

(z) in the case of any assignment, such assignment does not conflict with applicable law.

A Holder shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Holder or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

3. Closings.

3.1 Additional Notes Closings.

(a) Upon confirmation that both (i) the conditions to closing specified in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 have been satisfied or duly waived and (ii) the Company has filed with the SEC the Preliminary Proxy Statement for the purpose of calling the Special Meeting, the Company shall deliver to each Additional Purchaser Additional Notes, issued in such name or names as each Additional Purchaser may designate, in the aggregate principal amount set forth opposite such Additional Purchaser’s name on the signature pages attached hereto under the caption, “Tranche 1” (in such denomination or denominations as such Additional Purchaser may designate) with instructions that such Additional Notes are to be held for release to the Additional Purchasers only upon payment in full of the portion of the Additional Notes Purchase Price applicable to such tranche to the Company by all Additional Purchasers.

(c) Upon (i) confirmation that the conditions to the obligations of the Additional Purchasers to purchase such Additional Notes in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 have been satisfied or duly waived, (ii) confirmation that no termination has occurred pursuant to Section 6.3 and (iii) the earlier to occur of (A) such time that the Company has obtained irrevocable binding written commitments from record holders of at least 50% of its shares held of record as of the record date fixed by the Company’s board of directors for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any shares of Company common stock issued upon conversion of any Note prior to such record date) to vote their shares of common stock of the Company in favor of the issuance of the shares of

Company common stock to be issued in the Tandberg Acquisition, the approval of the issuance of the Conversion Shares and the approval of the reverse stock split and (B) such time that the Company secures the vote of its shareholders required to approve the issuance of the shares of Company common stock to be issued in the Tandberg Acquisition, the approval of the issuance of the Conversion Shares and the approval of the reverse stock split at the Special Meeting, the Company shall deliver to each Additional Purchaser Additional Notes, issued in such name or names as each Additional Purchaser may designate, in the aggregate principal amount set forth opposite such Additional Purchaser’s name on the signature pages attached hereto under the caption, “Tranche 3” (in such denomination or denominations as such Additional Purchaser may designate) with instructions that such Additional Notes are to be held for release to the Additional Purchasers only upon payment in full of the portion of the Additional Notes Purchase Price applicable to such tranche to the Company by all Additional Purchasers.

Upon the receipt by the Additional Purchasers of any of the Additional Notes, each Additional Purchaser shall promptly, but no more than two (2) Business Days thereafter, cause a wire transfer in same day funds to be sent to the account of the Company as instructed in writing by the Company, in an amount representing such Additional Purchaser’s pro rata portion of the Additional Notes Purchase Price applicable to such tranche as set forth opposite such Additional Purchaser’s name on the signature pages to this Agreement. On the date (each, an “Additional Notes Closing Date”) the Company receives payment in full of the Additional Notes Purchase Price applicable to such tranche from all Additional Purchasers, the Additional Notes issued in connection with such Additional Notes Closing Date shall be released to such Additional Purchasers (each, an “Additional Notes Closing”). If the Company does not receive the payment in full of the portion of the Additional Notes Purchase Price applicable to such tranche from all Additional Purchasers, such Additional Notes Closing shall not be effected and the Company shall, within one (1) Business Day, return the applicable Additional Notes Purchase Price to each of the Additional Purchasers. Each Additional Notes Closing of the purchase and sale of the Additional Notes shall take place at the offices of O’Melveny & Xxxxx LLP, 0000 Xxxx Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, or at such other location and on such other date as the Company and the Additional Purchasers shall mutually agree.

7. Covenants and Agreements.

7.1 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for the conversion of the Notes, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time equal the Conversion Shares issuable from time to time.

7.2 Reports. The Company will furnish to the Holders and/or their assignees such information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries as from time to time may reasonably be requested by the Holders and/or their assignees; provided, however, that the Company shall not disclose material nonpublic information to the Holders, or to advisors to or representatives of the Investors, unless prior to disclosure of such information the Company identifies such information as being material nonpublic information and provides the Holders, such advisors and representatives with the opportunity to accept or refuse to accept such material nonpublic information for review and any Holders wishing to obtain such information enters into an appropriate confidentiality agreement with the Company with respect thereto.

7.7 Termination of Covenants. The provisions of Sections 7.2 through 7.5 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the date on which the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement to register or maintain the effectiveness of any registration covering the Registrable Securities (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) shall terminate.

7.8 Removal of Legends. Upon the earlier of (i) the sale or disposition of any Notes by a Holder pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) or pursuant to any other exemption under the Securities Act such that the purchaser acquires freely tradable securities or (ii) any Notes of such Holder becoming eligible to be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144, upon the written request of such Holder, the Company shall or, in the case of Common Stock, shall cause the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) to issue replacement Notes. From and after the earlier of such dates, upon a Holder’s written request, the Company shall promptly cause such Holder’s Notes to be replaced with Notes which do not bear such restrictive legends, and the Conversion Shares subsequently issued upon due conversion of the Notes shall not bear such restrictive legends provided the provisions of either clause (i) or clause (ii) above, as applicable, are satisfied with respect thereto. In addition, upon the earlier of (i) registration of the Conversion Shares for resale pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or (ii) the Conversion Shares becoming eligible to be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall reissue a certificate representing shares of Common Stock without legends upon receipt by such Transfer Agent of the legended certificates for such shares, together with either (1) a customary representation by the Holder that Rule 144 applies to

the shares of Common Stock represented thereby or (2) a statement by the Holder that such Holder has sold the shares of Common Stock represented thereby in accordance with the Plan of Distribution contained in the Registration Statement, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act. When the Company is required to cause an unlegended Note or certificate to replace a previously issued legended Note or certificate, if: (1) the unlegended Note certificate is not delivered to a Holder within three (3) Business Days of submission by that Holder of a legended Note or certificate and supporting documentation to the Transfer Agent as provided above and (2) prior to the time such unlegended certificate is received by the Holder after such three (3) Business Day period, the Holder, or any third party on behalf of such Holder or for the Holder’s account, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of shares represented by such certificate (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Investor (for costs incurred either directly by such Holder or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for Common Stock as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage commissions, if any) exceeds the proceeds received by such Holder as a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice together with a reasonably detailed summary indicating the amounts payable to the Investor in respect of the Buy-In.

7.9 Equal Treatment of Holders. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the Holders. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Holder by the Company and negotiated separately by each Holder, and is intended for the Company to treat the Holders as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Holders acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of the Notes or otherwise.

7.10 Registration Requirement. Within thirty (30) days after each Additional Notes Closing Date, the Company shall file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement with the SEC covering the resale or other disposition of the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Additional Notes. All expenses incurred in connection with any such registration will be borne by the Company, excluding the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Holders which shall be borne by the Holders in accordance with Section 10.5.

10.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement, but shall be interpreted as if it were written so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the

extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereby waive any provision of law which renders any provision of this Agreement prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

10.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Exhibits, and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereof with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

10.10 Further Assurances. The parties shall execute and deliver all such further instruments and documents and take all such other actions as may reasonably be required to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and to evidence the fulfillment of the agreements herein contained.

10.11 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within the State of New York (except to the extent the provisions of the California Corporations Code would be mandatorily applicable to the issuance of the Shares or the Conversion Shares). Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding and to the laying of venue in such court. Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

10.12 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase Notes pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a

group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser acknowledges that no other Purchaser has acted as agent for such Purchaser in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Purchaser will be acting as agent of such Purchaser in connection with monitoring its investment in the Notes or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that each of the Purchasers has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Purchasers and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Purchaser.

10.13 Amendment and Restatement. It is the intention of each of the parties hereto that the Original Agreement be amended and restated so as to preserve the perfection and priority of all security interests securing indebtedness and obligations under the Original Agreement and that all obligations of the Company hereunder and thereunder shall be secured by the Stock Pledges and that this Agreement does not constitute a novation of the obligations and liabilities existing under the Original Agreement. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that this Agreement constitutes an amendment of the Original Agreement made under and in accordance with the terms of Section 10.6 of the Original Agreement. In addition, unless specifically amended hereby, each of the other Transaction Documents shall continue in full force and effect and that, from and after the date hereof, all references to the “NPA”, the “Note Purchase Agreement” or the “Purchase Agreement” contained therein shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement.
