("Technologies") and OPTICNET, INC., a Delaware corporation ("OpticNet").
R E C I T A L S
WHEREAS, prior to the date hereof the parties hereto have entered into
that certain Technology Transfer and Distribution Agreement (the "Technology
Transfer and Distribution Agreement") for the contribution of certain technology
and related assets by Technologies to OpticNet and the issuance by OpticNet to
Technologies in exchange therefor of 3,616,000 shares of the Voting Common Stock
of OpticNet, par value $0.0001 per share;
WHEREAS, in connection with the Technology Transfer and Distribution
Agreement, OpticNet desires to obtain certain services, personnel support,
provision of facilities, use of equipment and a line of credit from Technologies
and Technologies desires to provide same to OpticNet on the terms set forth
herein; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants expressed
herein, the parties agree as follows:
1. USE OF ADMINISTRATIVE FACILITIES.
The parties presently share certain administrative facilities
located at Xxx Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the
"Shared Facilities"). The parties hereby agree that use of the Shared Facilities
by OpticNet is at the discretion of Technologies, and such use by OpticNet may
be terminated by Technologies pursuant to sixty (60) days advance written notice
by Technologies to OpticNet stating the same. In consideration for the use of
the Shared Facilities, OpticNet shall pay a fee to Technologies, as provided in
Section 5 hereof.
2. USE OF EQUIPMENT.
a. Technologies will assign to OpticNet the lease
obligation(s) relating to the equipment set forth on Exhibit A hereto, which
Exhibit A shall attach as Schedule A-1 thereto such actual lease obligation(s)
(the "Assigned Equipment Leases") on the same terms and conditions set forth in
such Assigned Equipment Leases. The equipment leased to OpticNet under the
Assigned Equipment Leases shall be used by OpticNet for optical component
product development and production. The assignment to OpticNet of such Assigned
Equipment Leases shall expire by its terms on September 30, 2001, provided that
such lease term hereunder may otherwise be extended or earlier terminated by
mutual consent of the parties hereto. Such equipment will be provided by
Technologies for OpticNet's installation, control and use at OpticNet's
facility. From time to time the parties hereto may agree by mutual written
consent to modify Exhibit A to allow for the direct lease or assignment, as the
case may be, to OpticNet by Technologies of additional equipment or additional
lease obligations. OpticNet shall make payments to Technologies on the first of
each month commencing in the month immediately following the date hereof, which
payments shall be pursuant to the schedule incorporated into
1.
Exhibit A. OpticNet will be responsible for all costs associated with the
equipment listed on Exhibit A, including all necessary or advisable repairs and
maintenance.
b. To the extent that any of the equipment provided under such
Assigned Equipment Leases may have a residual purchase option, at such time that
such residual purchase option may first be exercisable, the purchase option
shall be offered to OpticNet by Technologies, provided that (i) OpticNet shall
pay to Technologies a sum equal to all lease payments made by Technologies prior
to the date hereof in connection with such Assigned Equipment Leases and (ii)
the exercise of such purchase option by OpticNet shall be permissible under the
terms of the relevant Assigned Equipment Lease.
c. In consideration of the agreement by Technologies to lease
to OpticNet the equipment set forth on Exhibit A, OpticNet hereby agrees to
permit the use of such equipment by Technologies' personnel or representatives
of Technologies' XxXxx, Inc. ("XxXxx") subsidiary, as the case may be (the
"Shared Equipment"), following reasonable notice to OpticNet and provided that
such use shall not interfere with the operations of OpticNet. OpticNet shall be
entitled to reduce the lease payments to Technologies applicable to such Shared
Equipment on a pro-rata basis, based upon the actual usage time of such Shared
Equipment by personnel of Technologies or XxXxx, as the case may be, compared to
the total available usage time of such Shared Equipment, based on an eight-hour
business day.
d. In the event of a Change of Control of Technologies,
OpticNet shall have the right to purchase from Technologies the remaining
obligation under such Assigned Equipment Leases, or in the case of equipment
owned by Technologies and directly leased to OpticNet, purchase the subject
equipment, and refuse further access to the equipment in its facility to
Technologies or XxXxx personnel or their successors, as the case may be. In the
event of a Change of Control of OpticNet, Technologies will have the right to
terminate its agreement to provide the equipment set forth on Exhibit A to
OpticNet. A "Change in Control" shall be defined as the occurrence of: (i) any
consolidation or merger of Technologies or OpticNet, as the case may be, with or
into any other corporation or other entity or person, or any other corporate
reorganization, in which the stockholders of Technologies or OpticNet, as the
case may be, immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, reorganization or
recapitalization, own less than 65% of the surviving entity's voting securities
immediately after such consolidation, merger, reorganization or
recapitalization, or any transaction or series of related transactions resulting
in the transfer of control of in excess of 65% of the voting securities of
Technologies or OpticNet, as the case may be; or (ii) the sale or an agreement
by Technologies or OpticNet, as the case may be, to sell all or substantially
all of its assets;

programs include life, medical, dental and disability income benefits; and
participation in Technologies' 401(k) retirement savings plan and other Employee

auditors as OpticNet may designate and the orderly handoff of these activities
to such audit and federal and state tax service provider(s) selected by OpticNet
when supervision and coordination of these activities by Technologies staff
shall cease. This liaison and oversight will continue through the completion of
the fiscal year end audits and tax returns for the fiscal year following the
year in which the separation occurs, provided that the provision of such
services may be earlier terminated or extended upon mutual agreement of the
parties hereto.
e. SEC Compliance Reporting. In the event that OpticNet shall
register its shares of Common Stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
during the term of this Agreement, and/or list its shares for trading with a
securities exchange, Technologies' corporate staff responsible for 10-K, 10-Q

for filing by OpticNet such applicable SEC mandated reports, and any reports
required by any securities exchange with which OpticNet may list its shares for
trading.

a. Technologies shall make available advances to OpticNet from
time to time until September 30, 2002, not to exceed at any time the aggregate
principal amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) (the "Line of Credit"), the
proceeds of which shall be used to finance working capital requirements, capital
expenditures and other general corporate purposes. Provided, however, that
availability of advances under such Line of Credit shall be subject to subject
to (1) Technologies' own ability to borrow under the terms and conditions of
that certain Credit Agreement between BEI Technologies, Inc. and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, BEI Sensors & Systems Company, Inc., and Xxxxx Fargo
Bank, National Association dated as of December 15, 1998, as amended from time
to time (the "Credit Agreement"), (2) no event of default having occurred as
defined within the Credit Agreement and being continuing and (3) the advance of
sums under such Line of Credit not causing an event of default to occur for
Technologies under that certain Credit Agreement. OpticNet's obligation to repay
advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto (the "Revolving Line of
Credit Note").
b. OpticNet may from time to time during the term of the Line
of Credit borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings without
penalty, and reborrow, provided that the total outstanding borrowings under the
Line of Credit shall not at any time exceed $2,000,000. OpticNet shall provide
five (5) business days prior written notice to Technologies of any intended
borrowing under such Line of Credit, including the amount of such borrowing and
the effective date thereof.
c. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance
owing under the Line of Credit at the rate of prime plus 1.5% per annum
(computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed). Interest accrued
on borrowings shall be payable on the first day of each calendar quarter.
5. FEES & PAYMENTS
a. OpticNet shall pay an aggregate fee to Technologies for the
shared facilities described in Section 1 hereof and for the managerial services
described in Section 3 hereof. The amount to be paid shall be in accordance with
the rates attached on Exhibit C hereto. In addition, OpticNet shall reimburse
Technologies for any costs and expenses accrued prior to the date of separation
and invoiced following the date hereof as the same relate to professional
services such as audit and tax preparation support, employee benefit record
keeping and financial advisory services, legal advice, and insurance policy
premiums for the benefit of OpticNet.
b. Fees for Technologies' services shall be payable monthly,
pro rated for fractional periods and invoiced in advance before the 10th of each
month. OpticNet agrees to pay Technologies' invoices net within 30 days.
Additional costs and expenses incurred for professional services shall be
invoiced directly to OpticNet. Where practical considerations
4.
dictate that Technologies should pay for the professional services directly, or
on behalf of OpticNet, OpticNet agrees to reimburse Technologies immediately
following receipt of Technologies' invoice which details the charges.
c. It is the intent of the parties that the fees shall bear a
reasonable relationship to actual costs. The need for continued service (if any)
and the fees (if any) therefore shall be reviewed after four quarters and
adjusted subject to arms length negotiation confirmed in writing.

hereof, Technologies may terminate this agreement at will upon thirty (30) days
written notice to OpticNet of such intent to terminate.
