in and to the Shares as of the date of employment termination.
In order to enforce the restrictions imposed upon the Shares, Xxxxx will,
immediately upon receipt of the certificate(s) representing the Shares, deposit
such certificate(s), together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer
appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company. Further, such certificate(s)
will bear the following legends:
"The securities evidenced by this certificate are subject to the terms
and conditions (including forfeiture and restrictions against
transfer) contained in a Restricted Stock Award Agreement between the
registered owner of the shares and XcelleNet, Inc. Release from such
terms and conditions shall be made only in accordance with the
provisions of such Agreement, copies of which are on file in the
office of the Secretary of XcelleNet, Inc.
"The securities evidenced by this certificate have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be sold,
transferred, assigned, or hypothecated unless (i) there is an
effective registration statement under such Act covering such
securities, (ii) the transfer is made in compliance with Rule 144
promulgated under such Act, or (iii) the issuer receives an opinion of
counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the issuer,
stating that such sale, transfer, assignment or hypothecation is
exempt from the registration requirements of such Act.
"The securities evidenced by this certificate have been issued or sold
in reliance on paragraph (13) of Code section 10-5-9 of the Georgia
Securities Act of 1973, and may not be sold or transferred except in a
transaction which is exempt under such Act or pursuant to an effective
registration statement under such Act."

certificate(s), without the first legend set forth above but retaining the
second and third legends, if appropriate, for the Shares will be delivered to
Xxxxx.
Xxxxx agrees that the Company may also endorse any other legends
required by applicable federal or state securities laws. Any legend endorsed on
a certificate pursuant to this Section 2 and the stop transfer instructions with
respect to the Shares shall be removed, as appropriate, and the Company shall
issue a certificate without such legend to the holder thereof if the sale of the
Shares is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the

Securities Act is available.

(a) Company Registration.
--------------------
(i) If the Company shall determine to register before January 2,
1999 any of its equity securities either for its own account or for the account
of Other Stockholders, other than a registration relating solely to benefit
plans, or a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction,
or a registration on any registration form which does not permit secondary sales
or does not include substantially the same information as would be required to
be included in a registration statement covering the sale of Registrable
Securities, the Company will:
(A) promptly give to each of the Holders a written notice
thereof (which shall include a list of the jurisdictions in which the Company
intends to attempt to qualify such securities under the applicable blue sky
or other state securities laws); and
(B) include in such registration (and any related qualification
under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved
therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or
requests, made by any
-3-
Holder within ten (10) business days after the giving of the written notice
from the Company described in clause (i) above, except as set forth in
Section 3(a)(ii) below. Such written request shall specify the amount of
Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by a Holder and may specify
all or a part of the Holders' Registrable Securities.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at any time after giving such written notice
of its intention to effect such registration and prior to the effective date of
the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the
Company shall determine for any reason not to register such equity securities
the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to
the Holders and thereupon the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to
register such Registrable Securities in connection with the registration of such
equity securities (but not from its obligation to pay Registration Expenses to
the extent incurred in connection therewith as provided herein).
(ii) Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company
------------
gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the
Company shall so advise each of the Holders as a part of the written notice
given pursuant to Section 3(a)(i)(A). In such event, the right of each of the
Holders to registration pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall be conditioned upon
such Holders' participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such
Holders' Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided
herein. The Holders whose shares are to be included in such registration shall
(together with the Company and the Other Stockholders distributing their
securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters
selected for the underwriting by the Company or such Other Stockholders, as the
case may be. Such underwriting agreement will contain such representations and
warranties by the Company and such other terms and provisions as are customarily
contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions,
including, without limitation, indemnities and contribution to the effect and to
the extent provided in Section 3(d) hereof and the provision of opinions of
counsel and accountants' letters to the effect and to the extent provided in
Section 3(c), and the representations and warranties by, and the other
agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such
underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of the Holders whose
shares are to be included in such registration. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section 3(a), if the representative determines that marketing
factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the
Company shall so advise all holders of securities requesting registration, and
the number of shares of securities that are entitled to be included in the
registration and underwriting shall be allocated in the following manner: The
securities of the Company held by officers, directors and Other Stockholders
(other than Other Stockholders exercising the contractual right initiating such
registration ("Other Demanding Holders") or to cause their securities to be
included in such registration ("Other Rights Holders")) shall be excluded from
such registration and underwriting to the extent required by such limitation,
and, if a limitation on the number of shares is still
-4-
required, the number of shares that may be included in the registration and
underwriting by each of the Holders and such Other Rights Holders shall be
reduced, on a pro rata basis (based on the number of shares held by such
holder), by such minimum number of shares as is necessary to comply with such
limitation. If any of the Holders or any officer, director or Other Stockholder
disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw
therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter. Any Registrable
Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting
shall be withdrawn from such registration.
(b) Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in
------------------------
connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this
Section 3 shall be borne by the Company, and all Selling Expenses shall be borne
by the Holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the
number of their shares so registered.
(c) Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration
-----------------------
effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 3, the Company will keep the
Holders, as applicable, advised in writing as to the initiation of each
registration and as to the completion thereof. At its expense, the Company
will:
(i) keep such registration effective for a period of one hundred
eighty (180) days or until the Holders, as applicable, have completed the
distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto,
whichever first occurs;
(ii) furnish to each Holder, and to any underwriter before filing
with the Commission, copies of any registration statement (including all
exhibits) and any prospectus forming a part thereof and any amendments and
supplements thereto (including all documents incorporated or deemed
incorporated by reference therein prior to the effectiveness of such
registration statement and including each preliminary prospectus, any summary
prospectus or any term sheet (as such term is used in Rule 434 under the
Securities Act)) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the
Securities Act, which documents, other than documents incorporated or deemed
incorporated by reference, will be subject to the review of the Holders and
any such underwriter for a period of at least five business days, and the
Company shall not file any such registration statement or such prospectus or
any amendment or supplement to such registration statement or prospectus to
which any Holder or any such underwriter shall reasonably object within five
business days after the receipt thereof; a Holder or such underwriters, if
any, shall be deemed to have reasonably objected to such filing only if the
registration statement, amendment, prospectus or supplement, as applicable,
as proposed to be filed, contains a material misstatement or omission;
-5-
(iii) furnish to each Holder and to any underwriter, such number of
conformed copies of the applicable registration statement and of each
amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits) and
such number of copies of the prospectus forming a part of such registration
statement (including each preliminary prospectus, any summary prospectus or
any term sheet (as such term is used in Rule 434 under the Securities Act))
and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act, in
conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other
documents, including without limitation documents incorporated or deemed to
be incorporated by reference prior to the effectiveness of such registration,
as each of the Holders or any such underwriter, from time to time may
reasonably request;
(iv) to the extent practicable, promptly prior to the filing of any
document that is to be incorporated by reference into any registration
statement or prospectus forming a part thereof subsequent to the
effectiveness thereof, and in any event no later than the date such document
is filed with the Commission, provide copies of such document to the Holders,
if requested, and to any underwriter, and make representatives of the Company
available for discussion of such document and other customary due diligence
matters, and include in such document prior to the filing thereof such
information as any Holder or any such underwriter reasonably may request;
(v) make available at reasonable times for inspection by the
Holders, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such
registration and any attorney or accountant retained by the Holders or any
such underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate
documents and properties of the Company and cause the officers, directors and
employees of the Company to supply all information reasonably requested by
the Holders and any such underwriters, attorneys or accountants in connection
with such registration subsequent to the filing of the applicable
registration statement and prior to the effectiveness of the applicable
registration statement;
(vi) use its reasonable best efforts (x) to register or qualify all
Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such registration
under such other securities or blue sky laws of such States of the United
States of America where an exemption is not available and as the sellers of
Registrable Securities covered by such registration shall reasonably request,
(y) to keep such registration or qualification in effect for so long as the
applicable registration statement remains in effect, and (z) to take any
other action which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such
sellers to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the securities
to be sold by such sellers, except that the Company shall not for any such
purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign
corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified, or to subject
itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or to execute a general consent
to service of
-6-
process in effecting such registration, qualification or
compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such
jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act or
applicable rules or regulations thereunder;
(vii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement to be registered with or
approved by such other federal or state governmental agencies or authorities
as may be necessary in the opinion of counsel to the Company and counsel to
the Holders of Registrable Securities to enable the Holders thereof to
consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;
(viii) subject to Section 3(f) hereof, promptly notify each Holder of
Registrable Securities covered by a registration statement (A) upon discovery
that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus
forming a part of such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an
untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,
(B) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of such registration statement or the initiation of proceedings
for that purpose, (C) of any request by the Commission for (1) amendments to
such registration statement or any document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference in any such registration statement, (2) supplements
to the prospectus forming a part of such registration statement or (3)
additional information, or (D) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption
from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose, and at the
request of any such Holder promptly prepare and furnish to it a reasonable
number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may
be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such
securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
(ix) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any
order suspending the effectiveness of any such registration, or the lifting
of any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of
any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction;
(x) if requested by any Holder, or any underwriter, promptly
incorporate in such registration statement or prospectus, pursuant to a
supplement or post effective amendment if necessary, such information as the
Holder and any underwriter may reasonably request to have included therein,
including, without limitation, information relating to the "plan of
distribution" of the Registrable
-7-
Securities, information with respect to the principal amount or number of
shares of Registrable Securities being sold to such underwriter, the purchase
price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the
Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering and make all required
filings of any such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon
as practicable after the Company is notified of the matters to be
incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post effective amendment;
(xi) furnish to the Holders, addressed to them, an opinion of
counsel for the Company, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting
agreement, if any, or the date of effectiveness of the registration statement
if such registration is not an underwritten offering, and use its reasonable
best efforts to furnish to the Holders, addressed to them, a "cold comfort"
letter signed by the independent certified public accountants who have
certified the Company's financial statements included in such registration,
covering substantially the same matters with respect to such registration
(and the prospectus included therein) and, in the case of such accountants'
letter, with respect to events subsequent to the date of such financial
statements, as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer's counsel and in
accountants' letters delivered to underwriters in underwritten public
offerings of securities and such other matters as the Holders may reasonably
request;
(xii) otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its
security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement
covering the period of at least 12 months, but not more than 18 months,
beginning with the first full calendar month after the effective date of such
registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions
of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 promulgated thereunder;
(xiii) provide promptly to the Holders upon request any document
filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the requirements of
Section 13 and Section 15 of the Exchange Act; and
(xiv) use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable
Securities included in any registration pursuant hereto to be listed on each
securities exchange on which securities of the same class are then listed,
or, if not then listed on any securities exchange, to be eligible for trading
in any over-the-counter market or trading system in which securities of the
same class are then traded.
(d) Indemnification.
---------------
(i) The Company will indemnify each of the Holders, as
applicable, each of its officers, directors, members and partners, and each
person controlling each of the Holders, with respect to each registration which
has been effected
-8-
pursuant to this Section 3, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who
controls any underwriter, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement
(or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any prospectus,
offering circular or other document (including any related registration
statement, notification or the like) incident to any such registration,
qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any rule or regulation thereunder
applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the
Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance,
and will reimburse each of the Holders, each of its officers, directors, members
and partners, and each person controlling each of the Holders, each such
underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and
any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and
defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, provided that the
Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim,
loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue
statement or omission based upon written information furnished to the Company by
the Holders or underwriter and stated to be specifically for use therein.
(ii) Each of the Holders will, if Registrable Securities held by
it are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification
or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of its directors
and officers and each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered
by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such
underwriter, each Other Stockholder and each of their officers, directors,
members and partners, and each person controlling such Other Stockholder against
all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of
a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus,
offering circular or other document made by such Holder, or any omission (or
alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements by such Holder therein not misleading, and
will reimburse the Company and such Other Stockholders, directors, officers,
partners, members, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal or any
other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending
any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent,
but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement)
or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement,
prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder and
stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the
obligations of each of the Holders hereunder and under clause (vi) below shall
be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Holder of securities
sold as contemplated herein.
-9-
(iii) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section
3(d) (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to
provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such
Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be
sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any
such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the
Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any
litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party
(whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld) and the Indemnified Party
may participate in such defense at such party's expense (unless the Indemnified
Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest
between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in such action, in
which case the fees and expenses of one such counsel for all Indemnified Parties
shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party), and provided further that
the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 3 unless
the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. No Indemnifying Party,
in the defense of any such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of
each Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which
does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or
plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect
to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such
information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party
may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in
connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.
(iv) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 3(f)
is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified
Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to
herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified
Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the
Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue (or alleged untrue) statement of a material fact or the
omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission.
(v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the
provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting
agreement entered into in connection with any underwritten public offering
contemplated by this
-10-
Agreement are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in such
underwriting agreement shall be controlling.
(vi) The foregoing indemnity agreement of the Company and
Holders is subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any loss,
claim, liability or damage made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or
remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the Commission at the time the
registration statement in question becomes effective or the amended prospectus
filed with the Commission pursuant to Commission Rule 424(b) (the "Final
Prospectus"), such indemnity or contribution agreement shall not inure to the
benefit of any underwriter or Holder (but only if such Holder was required to
deliver such Final Prospectus) if a copy of the Final Prospectus was furnished
to the underwriter and was not furnished to the person asserting the loss,
liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action is required by
the Securities Act.
(e) Information by the Holders. Each of the Holders holding
--------------------------
securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such
information regarding such Holder and the distribution proposed by such Holder
as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably
required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance
referred to in this Section 3.
4. Payment of Taxes. Xxxxx will, no later than the date as of which any
----------------
amount related to the Award first becomes includable in Xxxxx'x gross income for
federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make other arrangements
satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any federal, state and local
taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount.
The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be conditional on such
payment or arrangements, and the Company will, to the extent permitted by law,
have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise
due to Xxxxx.
5. No Right of Continued Employment. Nothing set forth in this Agreement
--------------------------------
or in any action of the Company or the Board of Directors will be held or
construed to confer upon Xxxxx any legal right to be continued in the employ of
the Company.
6. Rights as Shareholder. Xxxxx, as beneficial owner of the Restricted
---------------------
Shares, shall have full voting and dividend rights with respect to the
Restricted Shares from and after the date of grant, regardless of whether the
applicable restrictions have lapsed.
7. Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended except in writing,
---------
signed by the parties hereto.
-11-
8. Successors. This Restricted Stock Award Agreement shall be binding
----------
upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors,
and permitted assigns of the parties.
