Agreement or the Stockholder Voting Agreement, nor the carrying on of the
Company's business by the employees of the Company, nor the conduct of the

provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or
instrument under which any of such employees is now obligated.
2.9 Patents and Trademarks. The Company has sufficient title and
----------------------
interest in and to all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names,
copyrights, trade secrets, information, proprietary rights and processes
necessary for its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted

of Exceptions contains a complete list of patents and pending patent
applications of the Company. The Company is not aware of any patents,
trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, information,
proprietary rights and processes for which it would need to obtain title and
interest in and to for its business as now conducted and as proposed to be
conducted. There are no outstanding options, licenses, or agreements of any
kind relating to the foregoing, nor is the Company bound by or a party to any
options, licenses or agreements of any kind with respect to the patents,
trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, licenses,
information, proprietary rights and processes of any other person or entity.
The Company has not received any communications alleging that the Company has
violated or, by conducting its business as proposed to be conducted in the
Business Plan, would violate any of the patents, trademarks, service marks,
trade names, copyrights or trade secrets or other proprietary rights of any
other person or entity. The Company is not aware that any of its employees is
obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of
any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of

---------------------------------
or default in any material respect of any provision of the Restated Articles or

judgment, order, writ, decree or contract to which it is a party or by which it
is bound, or, to its knowledge, of any provision of any federal or state
statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company. The execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement,
5.
the Investors' Rights Agreement and the Stockholder Voting Agreement, and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will not result
in any such violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the
passage of time and giving of notice, either such a default under any such
provision, instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract or be an event
that results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets
of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture, or
nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization, or approval
applicable to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or
properties.
2.11 Agreements; Action.
------------------
(a) Except for agreements explicitly contemplated by this Agreement,
the Investors' Rights Agreement, the Stockholder Voting Agreement or the
Investors Voting Agreement, there are no agreements, understandings or proposed
transactions between the Company and any of its officers, directors, affiliates,
or any affiliate thereof.
(b) Except for agreements explicitly contemplated by this Agreement or
the Investors' Rights Agreement, there are no agreements, understandings,
instruments, contracts, or proposed transactions, to which the Company is a

involve obligations (contingent or otherwise) of, or payments to the Company in
excess of, $100,000.
(c) The Company has not (i) declared or paid any dividends, or
authorized or made any distribution upon or with respect to any class or series
of its capital stock, (ii) incurred any indebtedness for money borrowed or any

indebtedness and/or liabilities individually less than $100,000, in excess of
$250,000 in the aggregate, (iii) made any loans or advances to any person, other
than ordinary advances for travel expenses, or (iv) sold, exchanged or otherwise

or entities the Company has reason to believe are affiliated therewith) shall be
aggregated for the purpose of meeting the individual minimum dollar amounts of
such subsections.
(e) Since November 30, 1994, the Company has not received notice that
there has been a cancellation of one or more orders for the Company's services
or a loss of one or more customers of the Company, the cancellation or loss of
which in the aggregate would result in the loss of an amount equal to or greater
than 1% of the Company's revenues for the fiscal year ended November 30, 1994.
The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would lead it to
reasonably believe that
6.

a loss of one or more customers of the Company, the cancellation or loss of
which in the aggregate would materially adversely affect the business and
prospects of the Company.
(f) The Company is not a party to and is not bound by any contract,
agreement or instrument, or subject to any restriction under the Restated
Articles or its Amended and Restated Bylaws, which materially adversely affects
its business as now conducted or as proposed to be conducted, its properties or
its financial condition.
(g) With the exception of discussions with the Investors, the Company
has not engaged in the past three (3) months in any discussion (i) with any

Company is disposed of, or (iii) regarding any other form of acquisition,
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.
2.12 Disclosure. The Company has fully provided each Investor with all
----------
the information which such Investor has requested for deciding whether to
purchase the Series D Preferred Stock and has answered all questions posed by
such Investors. Neither this Agreement, the Investors' Rights Agreement, the
Stockholder Voting Agreement, nor any other written statements or certificates
delivered in connection herewith or therewith contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
herein or therein not misleading.
2.13 Business Projections. The business projections of the Company
--------------------
delivered to the Investors were prepared in good faith by the Company and the
Company reasonably believes that as of the date of delivery of such projections,
there was a reasonable basis for such projections. It is acknowledged that such
shall not be regarded as guarantees or assurances with respect to such matters.

-------------------
Agreement, the Company has not granted or agreed to grant any registration
rights, including piggyback rights, to any person or entity.
2.15 Corporate Documents. Except for amendments necessary to satisfy

Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company are in the form previously provided
to special counsel for the Investors.
7.
2.16 Title to Property and Assets. The Company owns the property and
----------------------------
assets that it purports to own in the Financial Statements (as defined in
Section 2.17 below) free and clear of all mortgages, liens, loans and
encumbrances, except such encumbrances and liens which arise in the ordinary
course of business and do not materially impair the Company's ownership or use
of such property or assets. With respect to the property and assets it leases,
the Company is in material compliance with such leases and, to the best of its
knowledge, holds a valid leasehold interest free of any liens, claims or
encumbrances. All of the Company's personal properties, whether owned or
leased, are in good operating condition (normal wear and tear excepted) and are
adequate and suitable for the purposes for which they are currently being used.
2.17 Financial Statements. The Company has delivered to each Investor
--------------------
its audited financial statements (balance sheet and profit and loss statement)
at November 30, 1993 and for the fiscal year then ended and for the period from
inception to such date and its unaudited financial statements at November 30,
1994 for the fiscal year then ended (collectively, the "Financial Statements").
The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis throughout the
periods indicated and with each other, except that unaudited Financial
Statements may not contain all footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles. The Financial Statements accurately set out and describe
in all material respects the financial condition and operating results of the
Company as of the dates, and for the periods, indicated therein, subject in the
case of unaudited Financial Statements to normal year-end audit adjustments.
Except as set forth in the Financial Statements, the Company has no liabilities,
contingent or otherwise, other than (i) liabilities incurred in the ordinary
course of business subsequent to November 30, 1994 and (ii) obligations under
contracts and commitments incurred in the ordinary course of business, which, in
both cases, individually or in the aggregate, are not material to the financial
condition or operating results of the Company. The Company maintains and will
continue to maintain a standard system of accounting established and
administered in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
2.18 Changes. Since November 30, 1994 there has not been:
-------
(a) any change in the assets, liabilities, financial condition or
operating results of the Company from that reflected in the Financial
Statements, except changes in the ordinary course of business which have not
been, in the aggregate, materially adverse;
(b) any damage, destruction or loss, whether or not covered by
insurance, materially and adversely affecting the assets, properties, financial
condition, operating results or business of the Company (as such business is
presently conducted and as it is proposed to be conducted);
8.
(c) any waiver by the Company of a valuable right or of a material
debt owed to it;
(d) any satisfaction or discharge of any lien, claim or encumbrance or
payment of any obligation by the Company, except in the ordinary course of
business and which is not material to the assets, properties, financial
condition, operating results or business of the Company (as such business is
presently conducted and as it is proposed to be conducted);
(e) any change or amendment to a material contract or arrangement by
which the Company or any of its assets or properties is bound or subject, which
would have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business;
(f) any change in any compensation arrangement or agreement with any
officer; or
(g) to the Company's knowledge, any other event or condition of any
character which might materially and adversely affect the assets, properties,
financial condition, operating results or business of the Company (as such
business is presently conducted and as it is proposed to be conducted).
2.19 Employee Benefit Plans. The Company does not have any Employee
----------------------
Benefit Plan as defined in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA").
2.20 Tax Returns, Payments and Elections. The Company has filed all tax
-----------------------------------
returns and reports as required by law. To the Company's knowledge these
returns and reports are true and correct in all material respects. The Company
has paid all taxes and other assessments due, except those contested by it in
good faith which are listed in the Schedule of Exceptions. The Company has not
elected pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),
to be treated as a collapsible corporation pursuant to Section 1362(a) of the
Code, nor has it made any other elections pursuant to the Code (other than
elections which relate solely to methods of accounting, depreciation or
amortization) which would have a materially adverse effect on the Company, its
financial condition, its business as presently conducted or proposed to be
conducted or any of its properties or material assets.
2.21 Insurance. The Company has in full force and effect fire and
---------
casualty insurance policies, with extended coverage, sufficient in amount
(subject to reasonable deductibles) to allow it to replace any of its properties
that might be damaged or destroyed. The Company also has in full force and
effect general liability insurance and insurance covering all rights customarily
insured against by businesses that are similarly situated.
9.
2.22 Minute Books. The minute books of the Company provided to the
------------
Investors contain a complete summary of all meetings of directors and
stockholders since the time of incorporation and reflect all transactions
referred to in such minutes accurately in all material respects.
2.23 Labor Agreements and Actions. The Company is not bound by or
----------------------------
subject to (and none of its assets or properties is bound by or subject to) any
written or oral, express or implied, contract, commitment or arrangement with
any labor union, and no labor union has requested or, to the knowledge of the
Company, has sought to represent any of the employees, representatives or agents
of the Company. There is no strike or other labor dispute involving the Company
pending, or to the knowledge of the Company threatened, which could have a
material adverse effect on the assets, properties, financial condition,
operating results, or business of the Company (as such business is presently
conducted and as it is proposed to be conducted), nor is the Company aware of
any labor organization activity involving its employees. The Company is not
aware that any officer or key employee, or that any group of employees, intends
to terminate their employment with the Company, nor does the Company have a
present intention to terminate the employment of any of the foregoing. The
employment of each officer and employee of the Company is terminable at the will
of the Company. The Company is not obligated to contribute to or accrue or pay
benefits under any deferred compensation or retirement funding arrangement.

Investor in reliance upon such Investor's representation to the Company, which

the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no
present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise
distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, each Investor further
represents that such Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such
person or to any third person, with respect to any of the shares of Series D
Preferred Stock.
10.
3.3 Disclosure of Information. Each Investor has had an opportunity to
-------------------------
ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and
conditions of the offering of the Series D Preferred Stock. The foregoing,
however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the
Company in Section 2 of this Agreement or the right of the Investors to rely
thereon.
3.4 Investment Experience. Each Investor is an institutional investor
---------------------
in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is
able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment and has
such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Series D
Preferred Stock. Each Investor also represents it has not been organized solely
for the purpose of acquiring the Series D Preferred Stock.
3.5 Accredited Investor. Each Investor is an accredited investor as
-------------------
defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, as amended, promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").
3.6 Restricted Securities. Each Investor understands that the shares of
---------------------
Series D Preferred Stock it is purchasing are 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 Act, only in certain limited circumstances. In
this connection, each Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144,
promulgated under the Act as presently in effect, and understands the resale
limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.
3.7 Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the
----------------------------------
representations set forth above, each Investor further agrees not to make any
disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until the
transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by
the terms of this Agreement, the Investors' Rights Agreement, the Stockholder
Voting Agreement, and
(a) There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act
covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance
with such registration statement and any applicable state securities laws; or
(b) (i) Such Investor shall have notified the Company of the proposed
disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of
the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) if reasonably
requested by the Company, such Investor shall have furnished the Company with an
opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such
disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Act or any
applicable state securities laws. It is agreed that the Company will not
require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in
unusual circumstances.
11.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) above, no
such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a
transfer by an Investor which is a partnership to a partner of such partnership
or a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or
to the estate of any such partner or retired partner or the transfer by gift,
will or intestate succession of any partner to his spouse or to the siblings,
lineal descendants or ancestors of such partner or his spouse, if the transferee
agrees in writing to be subject to the Investors' Rights Agreement and the
Stockholder Voting Agreement to the same extent as if he were an original
Investor hereunder.
3.8 Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the
-------
Securities may bear one or all of the following legends:
(a) "These securities have not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933 or any applicable state securities laws. They may not be sold,
offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of a registration
statement in effect with respect to the securities under such Act and applicable
state securities laws or an opinion of counsel and/or other evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required or unless
sold pursuant to Rule 144."
(b) Any legend required by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia,
the State of California and any other state in which the securities will be
issued.
3.9 Consents. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
--------
registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with any local,
state, federal or foreign governmental authority on the part of such Investor is
required in connection with the valid execution and delivery of this Agreement,
the Investors' Rights Agreement, the Stockholder Voting Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
3.10 Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation
----------
pending or, to such Investors' knowledge, currently threatened against the
Investors which questions the validity of this Agreement, the Investors' Rights
Agreement, the Stockholder Voting Agreement or the right of such Investor to
enter into them, or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby.
3.11 Compliance with Other Instruments. Such Investor is not in
----------------------------------
violation or default in any material respect of any provision of its charter
documents, or in any material respect of any instrument, judgment, order, writ,
decree or contract to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or, to its
knowledge, of any provision of any federal or state statute, rule or regulation
applicable to such Investor. To such Investor's best knowledge, the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Investors' Rights Agreement, the
Stockholder Voting Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby will not result in any such violation or be in
conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of
12.
