AmbiCom
shall not, nor shall they authorize or permit any of their directors,
officers or employees or any investment banker, financial advisor,
attorney, accountant or other representative retained by them or any of
their subsidiaries to. directly or indirectly through another person, (i)
solicit, initiate or encourage (including by way of furnishing
information), or take any other action designed to facilitate, any
inquiries or the making of any proposal which constitutes any AmbiCom
Takeover Proposal (as defined below) or (ii) participate in any
discussions or negotiations regarding any AmbiCom Takeover Proposal;
provided, however, that if the Board of Directors of AmbiCom determines in
good faith, based on the advice of outside counsel, that it is necessary
to do so in order to act in a manner consistent with its fiduciary duties
to AmbiCom’s stockholders under applicable law, AmbiCom may, in response
to a AmbiCom Superior Proposal (as defined in Section 4.2(b)) which was
not solicited by it, which did not otherwise result from a breach of this
Section 4.2(a) and subject to providing prior written notice of its
decision to take such action to AmbiCom and compliance with Section 4.2(c)
(x) furnish information with respect to AmbiCom and its subsidiaries to
any person making a AmbiCom Superior Proposal pursuant to a customary
confidentiality agreement (as determined by AmbiCom based on the advice of
its outside counsel, the terms of which are no more favorable to such
person than those normally utilized to protect the confidential
information of the disclosing party) and (y) participate in discussions or
negotiations regarding such AmbiCom Superior Proposal. For purposes of
this Agreement, “AmbiCom Takeover Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or
offer from any person relating to any direct or indirect acquisition or
purchase of a business that constitutes 50% or more of the net revenues,
net income or the assets of AmbiCom and its subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, or 10% or more of any class of equity securities of AmbiCom, any
tender offer, exchange offer or other transactions that if consummated

combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar
transaction involving AmbiCom or the AmbiCom Capital Stock other than the
transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

Except
as expressly permitted by this Section 4.2, neither the Board of Directors

any AmbiCom Takeover Proposal, or (iii) cause AmbiCom to enter into any
letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other
similar agreement (each, a “AmbiCom Acquisition Agreement”) related to any
AmbiCom Takeover Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time
prior to the obtaining of the AmbiCom Stockholder Approval, the Board of
Directors of AmbiCom, to the extent that it determines in good faith,
based upon the advice of outside counsel, that it is necessary to do so in
order to act in a manner consistent with its fiduciary duties to AmbiCom’s
stockholders under applicable law, may (subject to this and the following
sentences) terminate this Agreement solely in order to concurrently enter
into any AmbiCom Acquisition Agreement with respect to any AmbiCom
Superior Proposal, but only at a time that is after the fifth business day
following AmbiCom’s receipt of written notice advising AmbiCom that the
Board of Directors of AmbiCom is prepared to accept an AmbiCom Superior
Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such AmbiCom
Superior Proposal and identifying the person making such AmbiCom Superior
Proposal. For purposes of this Agreement, a “AmbiCom Superior Proposal”

shares of AmbiCom Common Stock then outstanding or all or substantially
all the assets of AmbiCom and otherwise on terms which the Board of
Directors of AmbiCom determines in its good faith judgment (based on the
advice of a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation) to be
more favorable to AmbiCom stockholders than the Acquisition and for which
financing, to the extent required, is then committed or which, in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors of AmbiCom based on the advice of
its financial advisor, is reasonably capable of being obtained by such
third party.

of this Section 4.2, AmbiCom shall immediately advise AAC orally and in
writing of any request for information or of any AmbiCom Takeover
Proposal, the material terms and conditions of such request or AmbiCom
Takeover Proposal and the identity of the person making such request or
AmbiCom Takeover Proposal. AmbiCom will keep AAC reasonably informed of
the status and details (including amendments or proposed amendments) of
any such request or AmbiCom Takeover Proposal. AAC shall treat any
information it receives from AmbiCom pursuant to this section as
confidential information.

Nothing
contained in this Section 4.2 shall prohibit AmbiCom from taking and
disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a)
promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any disclosure to
AmbiCom’s stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Board of
Directors of AmbiCom after consultation with outside counsel, failure so
to disclose would be inconsistent with its obligations under applicable
law; provided, however, that neither AmbiCom nor its Board of Directors
nor any committee thereof shall withdraw or modify, or propose publicly to
withdraw or modify, its position with respect to this Agreement, the
Acquisition, the issuance of AmbiCom Common Stock in connection with the
Acquisition, or approve or recommend, or propose publicly to approve or
recommend, an AmbiCom Takeover
