under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction (any such application, document or information being hereinafter called a “Blue Sky Application”) or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information, any Non-Prospectus Road Show or any Blue Sky Application, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any such amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information, any Non-Prospectus Road Show or any Blue Sky Application, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Underwriter furnished to the Company through the Underwriter by or on behalf of the Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, which information consists solely of the information specified in Section 8(e). The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to the Underwriter or to any director, officer, employee or controlling person of the Underwriter.

(b) The Underwriter shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Company or any director, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show or Blue Sky Application, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show or Blue Sky Application, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Underwriter furnished to the Company through the Underwriter by or on behalf of that Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, which information is limited to the information set forth in Section 8(e). The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that the Underwriter may otherwise have to the Company or any director, officer, employee or controlling person.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it

from any liability which it may have under this Section 8 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include any findings of fact or admissions of fault or culpability as to the indemnified party, or (ii) be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a), 10(b) or 10(c) in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other, from the offering of the Stock or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other, with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Stock purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter with respect to the shares of the Stock purchased under this Agreement, as set forth in the table

on the cover page of the Prospectus, on the other hand. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriter, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 8(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 8(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds from the sale of the Stock underwritten by it exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) The Underwriter confirms and the Company acknowledges and agrees that the statements regarding delivery of shares by the Underwriter set forth on the cover page of, the name of the Underwriter set forth under the caption “Underwriting” and the concession and reallowance figures and the paragraphs relating to stabilization and short positions by the Underwriter appearing under the caption “Underwriting” in, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus are correct and constitute the only information concerning such Underwriter furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Underwriter specifically for inclusion in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show.

9. Termination. The obligations of the Underwriter hereunder may be terminated by the Underwriter by notice given to and received by the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Stock if, prior to that time, any of the events described in Sections 7(i) and 7(j) shall have occurred or if the Underwriter shall decline to purchase the Stock for any reason permitted under this Agreement.

10. Reimbursement of Underwriter’s Expenses. If the Company shall fail to tender the Stock for delivery to the Underwriter by reason of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Company to perform any agreement on its part to be performed, or because any other condition to the Underwriter’s obligations hereunder required to be fulfilled by the Company is not fulfilled for any reason or (b) the Underwriter shall decline to purchase the Stock for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Underwriter for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by

the Underwriter in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Stock, and upon demand the Company shall pay the full amount thereof to the Underwriter.

11. Research Analyst Independence. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriter’s research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that the Underwriter’s research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering that differ from the views of their investment banking divisions. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Underwriter with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by their independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company by the Underwriter’s investment banking divisions. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriter is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

12. No Fiduciary Duty. The Company acknowledges and agrees that in connection with this offering, sale of the Stock or any other services the Underwriter may be deemed to be providing hereunder, notwithstanding any preexisting relationship, advisory or otherwise, between the parties or any oral representations or assurances previously or subsequently made by the Underwriter: (i) no fiduciary or agency relationship between the Company and any other person, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other, exists; (ii) the Underwriter is not acting as an advisor, expert or otherwise, to the Company, including, without limitation, with respect to the determination of the public offering price of the Stock, and such relationship between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other, is entirely and solely commercial, based on arms-length negotiations; (iii) any duties and obligations that the Underwriter may have to the Company shall be limited to those duties and obligations specifically stated herein; and (iv) the Underwriter and its affiliates may have interests that differ from those of the Company. The Company hereby waives any claims that the Company may have against the Underwriter with respect to any breach of fiduciary duty in connection with this offering.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that you and Xxxxxx Brothers Inc. (the “Underwriter”) propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) providing for the purchase by the Underwriter of shares (the “Stock”) of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Netflix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and that the Underwriter proposes to reoffer the Stock to the public (the “Offering”).

In consideration of the execution of the Underwriting Agreement by the Underwriter, and for other good and valuable consideration, the undersigned hereby irrevocably agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, the undersigned will not, directly or indirectly, (1) offer for sale, sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any person at any time in the future of) any shares of Common Stock (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of any options or warrants) or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (other than the Stock), (2) enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of shares of Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, (3) make any demand for or exercise any right or cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or any other securities of the Company or (4) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, for a period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the 90th day after the date of the Prospectus relating to the Offering (such 90-day period, the “Lock-Up Period”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Lock-Up Letter Agreement is intended to, or shall, prohibit (a) bona fide gifts, sales or other dispositions (including upon death by will or intestacy) of shares of any class of the Company’s capital stock, in each case that are made exclusively between and among the undersigned or members of the undersigned’s family, a trust formed for the benefit of any such person; provided that it shall be a condition to any such transfer that (i) the transferee/donee agrees to be bound

by the terms of this Lock-Up Letter Agreement (including, without limitation, the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence) to the same extent as if the transferee/donee were a party hereto, (ii) no filing by any party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with such transfer or distribution (other than a filing on a Form 5, Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G (or 13D-A or 13G-A) made after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period), (iii) each party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) shall not be required by law (including without limitation the disclosure requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Exchange Act) to make, and shall agree to not voluntarily make, any public announcement of the transfer or disposition, and (iv) the undersigned notifies Xxxxxx Brothers Inc. at least two business days prior to the proposed transfer or disposition; (b) transfers of shares of any class of the Company’s capital stock (i) to the Company; (ii) pursuant to a merger or consolidation approved by the board of directors of the Company; (iii) in connection with a third party tender or exchange offer; or (iv) in accordance with a “Rule 10b5-1 plan” in place on the date of this Lock-Up Agreement Letter. In addition, nothing in this Lock-Up Letter Agreement is intended to, or shall, prevent the undersigned from putting in place a “Rule 10b5-1 plan” or setting up a brokerage account, provided that no sales shall be made any such new Rule 10b5-1 Plan prior to the end of the Lock-Up Period.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, nothing in this Lock-Up Letter Agreement is intended to, or shall, prevent the offer for sale, sale, pledge, or other disposition of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Technology Crossover Management II, L.L.C., Technology Crossover Management IV, L.L.C., Foundation Capital Equity Partners II, L.P., FC Leadership Management Co., LLC or Foundation Capital Management Co., LLC or any of their respective affiliated funds.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company and its transfer agent are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Letter Agreement.

It is understood that, if the Company notifies the Underwriter that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering, if the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective by May 15, 2006, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Stock, the undersigned will be released from its obligations under this Lock-Up Letter Agreement.

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriter will proceed with the Offering in reliance on this Lock-Up Letter Agreement.

Whether or not the Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Offering will only be made pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriter.

[Signature page follows]

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Lock-Up Letter Agreement and that, upon request, the undersigned will execute any additional documents necessary in connection with the enforcement hereof. Any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the undersigned.


Very truly yours,

(iv) There are no preemptive rights under federal or under the Delaware General Corporation Law to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Stock.

(v) The Underwriting Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.

(vi) The execution, delivery and performance of the Underwriting Agreement by the Company, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement and the application of the proceeds from the sale of the Stock as described under “Use of Proceeds” in the Prospectus do not (i) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, impose any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, license or other agreement or instrument filed or incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 pursuant to Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject; (ii) violate any of the provisions of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company; or (iii) violate of any statute or any rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its properties and assets, or any order known to us issued by any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties or assets.

(vii) Except for the registration of the Stock under the Securities Act and such consents, approvals, authorizations, registrations or qualifications as may be required under the

B-2

Exchange Act and applicable state securities laws in connection with the purchase and sale of the Stock by the Underwriter, no consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties or assets is required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(viii) To our knowledge, there are no contracts, agreements or understandings between the Company and any person granting such person the right to require the Company to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to any securities of the Company owned or to be owned by such person or to require the Company to include such securities in the securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement or in any securities being registered pursuant to any other registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act.

(ix) To our knowledge and except as described or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which the Company is a party or of which any property or assets of the Company is the subject that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the performance of the Underwriting Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby; and, to our knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities or others.

(x) The Registration Statement became effective under the Securities Act as of the date it was filed with the Commission, and the Prospectus was filed with the Commission pursuant to the subparagraph of Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act on the date specified therein. To our knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceeding or examination for such purpose has been instituted or threatened by the Commission.

(xi) (A) The Registration Statement, on the latest Effective Date and on the Delivery Date, and (B) the Prospectus, when filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) and on the Delivery Date, were, on their face, appropriately responsive, in all material respects, to the requirements of the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations, except that in each case we express no opinion with respect to the financial statements or other financial data contained or incorporated by reference in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus.

(xii) The statements made in the Prospectus under the caption “Description of Capital Stock,” insofar as they purport to constitute summaries of the terms of the Common Stock (including the Stock), constitute accurate summaries of the terms of such Common Stock in all material respects.

(xiii) To our knowledge, there are no contracts or other documents of a character required to be described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement or incorporated by reference therein that are not described and filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein as required.

B-3

In rendering such opinion, such counsel may (i) state that its opinion is limited to matters governed by the federal laws of the United States of America and the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Such counsel shall also have furnished to the Underwriter a written statement, addressed to the Underwriter and dated the Delivery Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriter, to the effect that (x) such counsel has acted as counsel to the Company on a regular basis (although the Company is also represented by its General Counsel and, with respect to certain other matters, by other outside counsel), has acted as counsel to the Company in connection with previous financing transactions and has acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Pricing Disclosure Package, and (y) based on the foregoing, nothing has come to the attention of such counsel that causes it to believe that:

(a) the Registration Statement, as of the latest Effective Date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading;

(b) the Prospectus, as of its date and as of the Delivery Date, contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or

(c) the most recent Preliminary Prospectus, together with the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses set forth on a schedule to such opinion acceptable to counsel to the Underwriter, as of the Applicable Time, and except that the price of the Stock and disclosures directly relating thereto are included on the cover page of the Prospectus, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,

except that in each case such counsel need express no opinion with respect to the financial statements or other financial data contained or incorporated by reference in or omitted from the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the most recent Preliminary Prospectus. The foregoing opinion and statement may be qualified by a statement to the effect that such counsel does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the most recent Preliminary Prospectus, except to the extent set forth in paragraphs (xii) and (xiii) above.
