and commitments incurred in the ordinary course of business and not required
under generally accepted accounting principles to be reflected in the Financial
Statements, 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.
2.10. Changes. Since December 31, 2001, there has not been:

information that such Investor has requested for deciding whether to purchase
the Series A-1 Preferred Stock. To its knowledge, neither this Agreement
(including all the exhibits and schedules hereto) nor any other statements or

owns are owned by the Company free and clear of all mortgages, liens, loans and
encumbrances, except (i) as reflected in the Financial Statements, (ii) for
statutory liens for the payment of current taxes that are not yet delinquent,
and (iii) for liens, encumbrances and security interests that arise in the
ordinary course of business and minor defects in title, none of which,
individually or in the aggregate, 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 its
knowledge, holds a valid leasehold interest free of any liens, claims or
encumbrances, subject to clauses (i)-(iii).

3. Representations and Warranties of the Investors. Investor hereby represents,
warrants and covenants that:
3.1. Authorization. Investor has full power and authority to enter into
this Agreement and the License Agreement, and each such agreement constitutes
its valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its
terms.
3.2. Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with
Investor in reliance upon Investor's representation to the Company, which by
Investor's execution of this Agreement Investor hereby confirms, that the Series
A-1 Preferred Stock to be received by Investor and the Common Stock issuable
upon conversion thereof (collectively, the "Securities") will be acquired for
investment for Investor's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a
view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that Investor has no
present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise
distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Investor further represents
that Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement
with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to
any third person, with respect to any of the Securities.
3.3. Disclosure of Information. Investor believes it has received all
the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to
purchase the
5
Series A-1 Preferred Stock. Investor further represents that it has had an
opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the
terms and conditions of the offering of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the
business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Company. 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 Investor to
rely thereon.
3.4. Investment Experience. Investor 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 A-1 Preferred
Stock. If other than an individual, such Investor also represents it has not
been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Series A-1 Preferred Stock.
3.5. Accredited Investor. Investor is an "accredited investor" within
the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Rule 501 of Regulation
D, as presently in effect.
3.6. Restricted Securities. Investor understands that the Securities 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 not be resold without registration
under the Act. In the absence of an effective registration statement covering
the Securities or an available exemption from registration under the Act, the
Securities must be held indefinitely. In this connection, such Investor
represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and
understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act, including
without limitation the Rule 144 condition that current information about the
Company be available to the public. In addition, except to the extent described
in Section 3.9 below, the Series A-1 Preferred is not transferable.
3.7. Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the
Securities may bear one or all of the following legends, provided that paragraph
(b) below shall apply only to the certificates evidencing the Series A-1
Preferred Stock:
(a) "These securities have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 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 or an opinion of
counsel satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not
required or unless sold pursuant to Rule 144 of such Act."
(b) "These securities may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged
or hypothecated except to an affiliate of Bausch & Lomb Incorporated."
(c) Any legend required by any applicable state securities laws.
6
3.8. Tax Advisors. Investor has reviewed with Investor's own tax
advisors the federal, state and local tax consequences of this investment, where
applicable, and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Investor is
relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of
the Company or any of its agents and understands that Investor (and not the
Company) shall be responsible for Investor's own tax liability that may arise as
a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
3.9. Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the
representations set forth above, 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
this Section 3, and:
(a) The Series A-1 Preferred shall not be transferable by
Investor except to an affiliate;
(b) The Conversion Shares shall not be transferable by Investor,
unless:
(i) 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; or
(ii) If requested by the Company, 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. It is agreed
that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for
transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in unusual
circumstances.

existing and in good standing under the laws of New York, with all requisite
power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as now being
conducted.
3.11. Compliance with Law. Investor is not a party to any agreement or
instrument, or subject to any charter or other corporate restriction or, to its

other governmental restriction which would prevent or impede, or be breached or
violated by, the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

Investor does not consent thereto:

Exhibit 1.2 hereto (an "Investor Termination"), Investor, at Investor's sole
option, may convert shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock into (y) shares of
Common Stock and (z), if necessary, exchange shares of Series A-1 Preferred
Stock for a promissory note in accordance with Article 7 hereof, in each case
upon two (2) business days' written notice (the "Notice") within sixty (60) days
following such termination in accordance with the following provisions:
(i) if Investor elects to convert the Series A-1 Preferred Stock
into Common Stock and, if necessary, exchange for a promissory note, all shares
of Series A-1 Preferred Stock must be so converted and exchanged so that after
one conversion no shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock will remain outstanding.
(ii) Shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be converted
first into the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock of the Company that is
equal to (A) the aggregate Value of all shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock
divided by (B) the then current Fair Market Value of the Common Stock up to a
maximum of 4,300,000 shares of Common Stock, as may be adjusted for stock
splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like. Any remaining shares of
Series A-1 Preferred Stock which are not so converted shall be redeemed and
exchanged for a promissory note of the Company in accordance with Article 7
hereof.
(c) The "Value" of a share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock for purposes
of such conversions shall be the actual purchase price of such share of Series
A-1 Preferred Stock, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends (without any interest
thereon) on such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock.
9
(d) The "Fair Market Value" of the Company's Common Stock is equal to
the average of the closing sales prices for the five trading days immediately
preceding the date of the Notice of conversion of the Company's Common Stock on
any national securities exchange, or on the National Association of Securities
Dealers Automated Quotation System (NASDAQ), or if the Common Stock is not
traded on any such market, based on the reasonable opinion of value of an
independent investment banker of national reputation reasonably acceptable to
Investor and the Company.
7. Exchange of Series A-1 Preferred Stock for Promissory Notes.
(a) In the event that Investor elects to convert the Series A-1
Preferred Stock into Common Stock pursuant to Section 6 hereof upon an Investor
Termination, subject to Section 160 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and
other applicable law, all then outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock
which have not been converted into Common Stock in accordance with Section 6
(the "AVAILABLE SHARES") shall be repurchased and redeemed by the Company by
issuing to the holder thereof a promissory note, in the form set forth in
Exhibit 7-A attached hereto, with a principal balance equal to the aggregate
Value of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock so redeemed and a rate per annum equal
to the Exchanged Share Interest Rate (expressed as a percentage) without
compounding. For purposes hereof, the "EXCHANGED SHARE INTEREST RATE" shall be
equal to the "prime" rate of interest published by Citibank N.A. for loans to
its commercial customers, plus 2.00% per annum.
(b) The Company, at the Company's sole option, may in the event of a
Corporate Change (as defined below), subject to Section 160 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law and other applicable law, repurchase and redeem (a
"CORPORATE CHANGE REDEMPTION") all then outstanding shares of Series A-1
Preferred Stock by issuing to the holder thereof a promissory note, in the form
set forth in Exhibit 7-B attached hereto, with a principal balance equal to the
aggregate Value of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock then outstanding and a rate
per annum equal to the Corporate Change Redemption Interest Rate (expressed as a
percentage) without compounding. For purposes hereof, the "CORPORATE CHANGE
REDEMPTION INTEREST RATE" shall be equal to the quotient of: (i) the product of
(a) the aggregate purchase price paid for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock being
exchanged for the promissory note and (b) 0.06 over (ii) the aggregate Value of
the Series A-1 Preferred Stock being exchanged for the promissory note.
(c) In the event of a Corporate Change Redemption, all Subsequent
Closings that take place after the date of the Corporate Change Redemption will
be debt financings in lieu of equity financings. Upon payment of each
"INVESTMENT AMOUNT" set forth on Exhibit 1.2 to this Agreement, the Company in
lieu of issuing Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall issue to Investor a promissory
note, in the form set forth in Exhibit 7-B attached hereto, with a principal
balance equal to the "INVESTMENT AMOUNT" bearing interest at a rate of 6% per
annum (without compounding).
10
(d) Upon the issuance of any promissory notes pursuant to this
Section 7, all provisions in this Agreement and the provisions in the License
Agreement relating to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, preferred stock or equity
securities issued to the Investor shall be deemed to refer to the promissory
notes and all rights and obligations relating to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock
under this Agreement and the License Agreement shall apply to the promissory
notes, including but not limited to Section 5.1(b), 5.1(c) and Section 19.5 of
the License Agreement pertaining to forfeiture of the equity interests;
provided, however, any promissory notes issued pursuant to Section 7(a) shall
not be convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock.
(e) For purposes of this Agreement, "CORPORATE CHANGE" shall mean (i)
any acquisition of the Company by means of merger or other form of corporate
reorganization in which outstanding shares of the Company are exchanged for
securities or other consideration issued, or caused to be issued, by the
acquiring corporation or its subsidiary (other than a mere reincorporation
transaction) and pursuant to which the holders of the outstanding voting
securities of the Company immediately prior to such merger or other form of
corporate reorganization fail to hold equity securities representing a majority
of the voting power of the Company or surviving entity immediately following
such merger or other form of corporate reorganization or (ii) a sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company.

FORM OF PROMISSORY NOTE
THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED,
OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS. IT MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE
TRANSFERRED UNDER CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WOULD RESULT IN A VIOLATION OF THE
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR SUCH OTHER LAWS.
$[_______________] Dated: _____________
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Insite Vision Incorporated (the
"Borrower"), HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY PROMISES TO PAY to the order of
[______________] (the "Lender"), the principal sum of [______________________]
DOLLARS ($_______________) (the "Loan"). This Promissory Note is a demand note
and the outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall be due and payable on the
Business Day following demand on any date after five years following the date
hereof by the Lender (the "Maturity Date").
The Borrower further promises to pay interest on the outstanding
principal amount of this Promissory Note from the date hereof until maturity, in
arrears, on the Maturity Date, at a rate per annum equal to [_____]% without
compounding. All computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a year
of 365 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding
the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable.
All payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United
States of America and in same day or immediately available funds, to the Lender,
at Xxx Xxxxxx & Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or at such other place or
to such account as the Lender from time to time shall designate in a written
notice to the Borrower.
Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due, or whenever
any interest payment date or any other date specified hereunder would otherwise
occur, on a day other than a Business Day (as defined below), then such payment
shall be made, and such interest payment date or other date shall occur, on the
next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
included in the computation of payment of interest hereunder. As used herein,
"Business Day" means a day (i) other than Saturday or Sunday, and (ii) on which
commercial banks are open for business in San Francisco, California.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if during any period
for which interest is computed hereunder, the amount of interest computed on the
basis
18
provided for in this Promissory Note, together with all fees, charges and other
payments which are treated as interest under applicable law, as provided for
herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, would exceed
the amount of such interest computed on the basis of the Highest Lawful Rate,
the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay, and the Lender shall not be entitled
to charge, collect, receive, reserve or take, interest in excess of the Highest
Lawful Rate, and during any such period the interest payable hereunder shall be
computed on the basis of the Highest Lawful Rate. As used herein, "Highest
Lawful Rate" means the maximum non-usurious rate of interest, as in effect from
time to time, which may be charged, contracted for, reserved, received or
collected by the Lender in connection with this Promissory Note under applicable
law.
The Borrower may prepay the outstanding amount hereof in whole or in
part at any time, without premium or penalty. Together with any such prepayment
the Borrower shall pay accrued interest on the amount prepaid.
The Lender shall have all rights and remedies provided for at law, in
equity and by agreement of the parties.
The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all the losses, costs, and expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and disbursements) which the
Lender incurs in connection with enforcement or attempted enforcement of this
Promissory Note, or the protection or preservation of the Lender's rights under
this Promissory Note, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise. Such costs
and expenses include, without limitation, those incurred in connection with any
workout or refinancing, or any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar
proceedings.
The Borrower hereby waives diligence, demand, presentment, protest or
further notice of any kind. The Borrower agrees to make all payments under this
Promissory Note without setoff or deduction and regardless of any counterclaim
or defense.
No single or partial exercise of any power under this Promissory Note
shall preclude any other or further exercise of such power or exercise of any
other power. No delay or omission on the part of the Lender in exercising any
right under this Promissory Note shall operate as a waiver of such right or any
other right hereunder.
This Promissory Note shall be binding on the Borrower and its successors
and assigns, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Lender,
any future holder of this Promissory Note and their respective successors and
assigns. Neither party may assign or transfer this Promissory Note or any of its
obligations hereunder without the other party's prior written consent.

THIS PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH NEW YORK LAW.

FORM OF CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
THIS NOTE AND THE COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON THE CONVERSION HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE
SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNDER
CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WOULD RESULT IN A VIOLATION OF THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS
OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR SUCH OTHER LAWS.
$[_______________] Dated: _____________
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Insite Vision Incorporated (the
"Borrower"), HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY PROMISES TO PAY to the order of
[______________] (the "Lender"), the principal sum of [______________________]
DOLLARS ($_______________) (the "Loan"). This Promissory Note is a demand note
and the outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall be due and payable on the
Business Day following the date of termination of the ISV-403 Technology License
Agreement, dated July ___, 2002 (the "License Agreement") between the Borrower
and Bausch & Lomb Incorporated pursuant to Section 19 thereof (the "Maturity
Date") unless earlier converted into shares of capital stock or other securities
of Borrower as set forth herein and in the License Agreement.
The Borrower further promises to pay interest on the outstanding
principal amount of this Promissory Note from the date hereof until maturity, in
arrears, on the Maturity Date, unless earlier converted into shares of capital
stock of Borrower, at a rate per annum equal to [_____]% without compounding.
All computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days
for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last
day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable.
Unless earlier converted into shares of capital stock of Borrower, all
payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America
and in same day or immediately available funds, to the Lender, at Xxx Xxxxxx &
Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or at such other place or to such account
as the Lender from time to time shall designate in a written notice to the
Borrower.
Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due, or whenever
any interest payment date or any other date specified hereunder would otherwise
occur, on a day other than a Business Day (as defined below), then such payment
shall be made, and such interest payment date or other date shall occur, on the
next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
included in the computation of payment of interest hereunder. As used herein,
"Business Day" means a day (i) other
21
than Saturday or Sunday, and (ii) on which commercial banks are open for
business in San Francisco, California.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if during any period
for which interest is computed hereunder, the amount of interest computed on the
basis provided for in this Promissory Note, together with all fees, charges and
other payments which are treated as interest under applicable law, as provided
for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, would
exceed the amount of such interest computed on the basis of the Highest Lawful
Rate, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay, and the Lender shall not be
entitled to charge, collect, receive, reserve or take, interest in excess of the
Highest Lawful Rate, and during any such period the interest payable hereunder
shall be computed on the basis of the Highest Lawful Rate. As used herein,
"Highest Lawful Rate" means the maximum non-usurious rate of interest, as in
effect from time to time, which may be charged, contracted for, reserved,
received or collected by the Lender in connection with this Promissory Note
under applicable law.
At the sole option of the Borrower, any portion of the outstanding
principal balance plus any portion of accrued and unpaid interest on this
Promissory Note may be converted into shares of the Borrower's common stock (the
"Common Stock"). The number of shares of Borrower's Common Stock into which
amounts due under this Promissory Note shall be converted shall be equal to the
quotient obtained by dividing (a) the aggregate outstanding principal balance
that is being converted, plus any accrued and unpaid interest being converted on
the date of conversion by (b) the then current Fair Market Value of the Common
Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Borrower be entitled to
convert any portion of the principal balance outstanding or any portion of
accrued and unpaid interest on this Promissory Note if such conversion (together
with any prior conversions pursuant to this Promissory Note or any other
Promissory Note issued pursuant to the Agreement (as defined below)) would cause
the issuance of more than 4,300,000 shares of Common Stock, as may be adjusted
for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like. The "FAIR
MARKET VALUE" of the Borrower's Common Stock is equal to the average of the
closing sales prices for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of
notice of conversion of the Borrower's Common Stock on any national securities
exchange, or on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated
Quotation System (NASDAQ), or if the Common Stock is not traded on any such
market, based on the reasonable opinion of value of an independent investment
banker of national reputation reasonably acceptable to Lender and the Borrower.
The Borrower may prepay the outstanding amount hereof in whole or in
part at any time, without premium or penalty. Together with any such prepayment
the Borrower shall pay accrued interest on the amount prepaid.
All provisions in (a) the preferred stock purchase agreement (the
"Agreement") by and among the Borrower and Bausch & Lomb Incorporated ("B&L");
and (b) the ISV-403 Technology License Agreement (the "License Agreement") by
and among Borrower and B&L relating to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, preferred
stock or equity securities issued to B&L shall be deemed to refer to this
promissory note and all
22
rights and obligations relating to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, preferred
stock or equity securities issued to B&L shall apply to this promissory note,
including but not limited to Section 5.1(b), 5.1(c) and Section 19.5 of the
License Agreement pertaining to forfeiture of the equity interests.
The Lender shall have all rights and remedies provided for at law, in
equity and by agreement of the parties.
The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all the losses, costs, and expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and disbursements) which the
Lender incurs in connection with enforcement or attempted enforcement of this
Promissory Note, or the protection or preservation of the Lender's rights under
this Promissory Note, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise. Such costs
and expenses include, without limitation, those incurred in connection with any
workout or refinancing, or any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar
proceedings.
The Borrower hereby waives diligence, demand, presentment, protest or
further notice of any kind. The Borrower agrees to make all payments under this
Promissory Note without setoff or deduction and regardless of any counterclaim
or defense.
If the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Promissory Note
shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other
class or classes of stock, or into any other property whether by
recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or otherwise (other than a
subdivision or combination of shares) in any such event the Promissory Note
shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of stock and other
securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification,
reorganization or other change by holders of the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock into which this Promissory Note could have been converted
immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change.
No single or partial exercise of any power under this Promissory Note
shall preclude any other or further exercise of such power or exercise of any
other power. No delay or omission on the part of the Lender in exercising any
right under this Promissory Note shall operate as a waiver of such right or any
other right hereunder.
This Promissory Note shall be binding on the Borrower and its successors
and assigns, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Lender,
any future holder of this Promissory Note and their respective successors and
assigns. Neither party may assign or transfer this Promissory Note or any of its
obligations hereunder without the other party's prior written consent.

THIS PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH NEW YORK LAW.
