corporation, or its assignee (“Holder”), is entitled to purchase the number of fully paid and
nonassessable shares of the class of securities (the “Shares”) of ELOQUA LIMITED, a Delaware

set forth above and as adjusted pursuant to this Warrant, subject to the provisions and upon the

ARTICLE 1
EXERCISE
EXERCISE
1.1 Method of Exercise. Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering this Warrant
and a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 to the
principal office of the Company. Holder shall also deliver to the Company a check or wire for the
aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being purchased.
1.2 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Within 45 days after Holder exercises
this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this
Warrant has not been fully exercised and has not expired, a new warrant representing the Shares not
so acquired.
1.3 Replacement of Warrants. In the case of loss, theft or destruction of this
Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the
Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company
at its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor.
1.4 Acquisition of the Company.
1.4.1 “Acquisition.” For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition”
means (a) any sale, license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets
(including intellectual property) of the Company, or (b) any reorganization, consolidation,
merger or sale of the voting securities of the Company or any other transaction where the
holders of the Company’s securities before the transaction beneficially own less than 50% of
the outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after the transaction.
1.4.2 Treatment of Warrant in the Event of an Acquisition. The Company shall
give Holder written notice at least 20 days prior to the closing of any proposed Acquisition.
The Company will use its best efforts to cause the acquirer of the Company under the
Acquisition (the “Acquirer”) to assume this Warrant as a part of the Acquisition.
(A) If the Acquirer assumes this Warrant, then this Warrant shall be exercisable
for the same securities, cash, and property as would be payable for the Shares issuable
upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were
outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing. The Warrant
Price shall be adjusted accordingly, and the Warrant Price and number and class of
Shares shall continue to be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with
the provisions hereof.
(B) If the Acquirer refuses to assume this Warrant in connection with the
Acquisition, the Company shall give Holder an additional written notice at least 5 days
prior to the closing of the Acquisition of such fact. In such event, notwithstanding
any other provision of this Warrant to the contrary, Holder may immediately exercise
this Warrant in the manner specified in this Warrant with such exercise
effective immediately prior to closing of the Acquisition. If Holder elects not to
exercise this Warrant, then this Warrant will terminate immediately prior to the
closing of the Acquisition; provided, however, that if the consideration payable to
the Company and/or its shareholders, as applicable, under the Acquisition (the
“Acquisition Consideration”) is to consist of privately traded securities, then
Holder shall have the option, effective prior to the closing of the Acquisition, to
put this Warrant to the Company as follows:
(i) Holder shall provide written notice of the put to the Company prior to the closing of the Acquisition;
(ii) prior to or simultaneously with the closing of the Acquisition,
the Company shall pay Holder an amount equal to:
(1) the value of one Share determined by dividing: (i)
the total Acquisition Consideration, by (ii) the number of fully
diluted shares of the Company determined immediately prior to the closing
of the Acquisition; multiplied by
2
(2) the number of Shares exercisable under this Warrant; minus
(3) the Warrant Price, multiplied by the number of Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable; and
(iii) upon payment to Holder of the above amount, this Warrant
shall be deemed canceled.
ARTICLE 2
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES
2.1 Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If the Company declares or pays a dividend on its
common stock payable in common stock, or other securities, or subdivides the outstanding common
stock into a greater amount of common stock, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share
acquired, Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities
to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the
dividend or subdivision occurred.
2.2 Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. Upon any reclassification, exchange,
substitution, or other event that results in a change of the number and/or class of the securities
issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon
exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the number and kind of securities and property that Holder
would have received for the Shares if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such
reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event. Such an event shall include any automatic
conversion of the outstanding or issuable securities of the Company of the same class or series as
the Shares to common stock pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation upon
the closing of a registered public offering of the Company’s common stock. The Company or its
successor shall promptly issue to Holder a new warrant for such new securities or other property.
The new warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 2 including, without limitation,
adjustments to the Warrant Price and to the number of securities or property issuable upon exercise
of the new warrant. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive
reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions, or other events.
2.3
Adjustments for Combinations, Etc. If the outstanding Shares are combined or
consolidated, by reclassification, reverse split or otherwise, into a lesser Number of Shares, the
Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased. If the outstanding Shares are split or
multiplied, by reclassification or otherwise, into a greater Number of Shares, the Warrant Price
shall be proportionately decreased.
2.4 Adjustments for Diluting Issuances. The Warrant Price and the Number of Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment, from time to time, in the
manner set forth on Exhibit A, if attached, in the event of Diluting Issuances (as defined on
Exhibit A).
2.5 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of
Incorporation or through a reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution,
issue, or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company,
but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all the provisions of this Article 2
and in taking all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect Holder’s rights under
this Article 2 against impairment.
3
2.6 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, the
Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment, and furnish Holder with a
certificate signed by its Chief Financial Officer setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon
which such adjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request, furnish Holder a
certificate setting forth the Warrant Price in effect upon the date thereof and the series of
adjustments leading to such Warrant Price.
2.7 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant and the Number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share.
If a fractional share interest arises upon any exercise of the Warrant, the Company shall
eliminate such fractional share interest by paying Holder an amount computed by multiplying the
fractional interest by the fair market value, as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors,
of a full Share.

EXHIBIT A
Anti-Dilution Provisions
In the event of the issuance by the Company, after the Issue Date of this Warrant, of
securities at a price per share less than the Warrant Price (a “Diluting Issuance”), then the
number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares shall be adjusted in
accordance with those provisions (the “Provisions”) of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation
which apply to Diluting Issuances in the same manner, if any, as the conversion rate of outstanding
shares of the same class and series of securities of the Company is adjusted.
Under no circumstances shall the aggregate Warrant Price payable by the Holder upon exercise
of the Warrant increase as a result of any adjustment arising from a Diluting Issuance.
EXHIBIT B
Registration Rights
The Shares (if common stock), or the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares,
shall be deemed “registrable securities” or otherwise entitled to “piggy back” registration rights
in accordance with the terms of the following agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Company and
its investors:
Amended
and Restated Investor Rights Agreement dated August 25, 2006 by and among
Company, Eloqua Corporation and the investors party thereto, as amended from time to
time.
The Company agrees that no amendments will be made to the Agreement which would have an
adverse impact on Holder’s registration rights thereunder without the consent of Holder unless such
amendment affects all other holders of shares with equivalent registration rights in the same
manner. By acceptance of the Warrant to which this Exhibit B is attached, Holder shall be deemed to
be a party to the Agreement as an “Investor” solely for the purpose of the above-mentioned
registration rights.
