and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the "Restated
Certificate").

         1.2 The Closing. The purchase and sale of the Stock shall be held at
the Company's offices within five (5) business days after the satisfaction or

At the Closing, the Company will deliver the Stock to the Investor against
payment of the purchase price therefor by check payable to the order of the
Company or by wire transfer.

2.       Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby
represents and warrants to the Investor that:

         2.1 Organization and Good Standing. The Company is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its
business as now conducted.

         2.3 Valid Issuance of Stock. The Stock, when issued, sold and
delivered in accordance with the terms hereof for the consideration expressed,

part upon the representations of the Investor in this Agreement, will be issued
in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.

         2.4 Litigation. There are no actions, proceedings or investigations
pending or, to the best of Company's knowledge, any basis therefor or threat
thereof, against or affecting the Company, that, either in any case or in the
aggregate, would result in any material adverse change in the business,
financial condition, or results of operations of the Company.

         2.5 Properties. To the best of the Company's knowledge (but without
having conducted any special investigation), the Company has (i) good and
marketable title to its properties and assets and has good title to all its
leasehold interests, and (ii) sufficient title, license and/or ownership of all
patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets,

conducted on the date hereof.

         2.6 Compliance with Other Documents. The execution and delivery of
this Agreement, consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and
compliance with the terms and provisions hereof will not conflict with or
result in a breach of the terms and conditions of, or constitute a default
under the Restated Certificate or Bylaws of the Company or of any contract or
agreement to which the Company is now a party, except where such conflict,
breach or default of any such contract or agreement, either individually or in
the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition or results of operations.

         2.7 SEC Filings. Since June 4, 1999 (the "IPO Date"), the Company has
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") all reports,
schedules, forms, statements and other documents (including exhibits and all
other information incorporated therein) required to be filed under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act (the "SEC Documents"). As of their
respective dates, the SEC Documents have complied in all material respects with
the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be,
and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to
such SEC Documents and, except to the extent that information contained in any
SEC Document has been revised or superseded by a later filed SEC Document, none
of the SEC Documents when filed contained any untrue statement of a material
fact or omitted to state a 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. The financial
statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents comply as to form, as
of their respective dates of filing with the SEC, in all material respects with
applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of
the SEC with respect thereto, have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles (except, in the case of unaudited statements, as
permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC) applied on a consistent basis during the
periods involved (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and fairly
present in all





                                       2

material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its
consolidated Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results
of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the
case of unaudited statements, to normal recurring year-end audit adjustments).

3.       Representations and Warranties of the Investor. The Investor hereby
represents and warrants that:

         3.1 Authorization. This Agreement constitutes the valid and legally
binding obligation of the Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms,
subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and
the relief of debtors and by general principles of equity.

any part thereof, and that the Investor has no present intention of selling,
granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.

6.       Covenants of the Company and the Investor.

         6.1 Agreement Not to Transfer.


         (a)      Prior to the first anniversary of the Closing, the Investor
                  shall not, directly or indirectly, Transfer or offer to
                  Transfer, in the aggregate, more than fifty percent (50%) of
                  the shares of the Stock during any one calendar quarter.

         (b)      Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on Transfer (the
                  "Transfer Restrictions"), the Transfer Restrictions shall be
                  ineffective in the event an unrelated third party has
                  publicly announced and is actively pursuing the purchase of
                  all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock of
                  the Company or a merger in which the Company would not be the
                  surviving corporation; provided, that if such acquisition or
                  merger is not consummated within sixty days of such public
                  announcement, the Transfer Restrictions shall be reinstated.




                                       4
<PAGE>   5



         (c)      In order to enforce the Transfer Restrictions, the Company
                  may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the
                  Stock until the end of the restricted period.

         (d)      As used in this Agreement, the term "Transfer" shall mean any
                  sale, transfer, assignment, hypothecation, encumbrance or
                  other disposition, whether voluntary or involuntary, of
                  shares of the Stock. In the case of a hypothecation, the
                  Transfer shall be deemed to occur both at the time of the
                  initial pledge and at any pledgee's sale or a sale by any
                  secured creditor or a retention by the secured creditor of
                  the pledged shares of the Stock in complete or partial
                  satisfaction of the indebtedness for which the shares of the
                  Stock are security.

         6.2 Market Stand-Off. In addition to the Transfer Restrictions (which
shall in no way be limited by the following), in connection with any secondary
underwritten public offering by the Company of its equity securities pursuant
to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, the
Investor shall not Transfer or offer to Transfer any shares of the Stock
without the prior written consent of the Company and its underwriters. Such
restriction (the "Market Stand-Off") shall be in effect for such period of time
from and after the effective date of the final prospectus for the offering as
may be requested by the Company or such underwriters; provided, however, that
(i) such Market Stand-Off shall not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, and
(ii) the Investor shall be subject to the Market Stand-Off only if the officers
and directors of the Company are also subject to similar restrictions. In order
to enforce the Market Stand-Off, the Company may impose stop-transfer
instructions with respect to the Stock until the end of the applicable
stand-off period.

         6.3 Notice of Intention to Transfer. On or prior to the third
anniversary of the Closing, in the event the Investor plans to Transfer in the
aggregate more than twenty percent (20%) of the shares of the Stock in one or
more transactions during any three (3) month period, the Investor shall use its
best efforts to inform the Company of such intention to Transfer such shares
ten (10) days prior to such Transfer.

         6.4 Standstill. The Investor agrees that, prior to the third
anniversary of the IPO Date, unless specifically invited by the Company, the
Investor will not, in any manner, directly or indirectly, effect any
acquisition of Voting Securities (as hereinafter defined), or beneficial
ownership thereof if, immediately after any such acquisition, the Investor
would beneficially own, in the aggregate, Voting Securities representing more
than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company. The
Investor also agrees during such period not to make any public request (or
publicize any request) of the Company (or its directors, officers, employees or
agents), directly or indirectly, to amend or waive any provision of this
Section 6.4 (including this sentence). The Investor also agrees not to form,
join or in any way participate in a "group" (as defined under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), or take any other
action, in order to circumvent the provisions of this Section 6.4.




                                       5
<PAGE>   6



                  For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the term "Voting
Securities" shall refer to all securities of the Company entitled to vote
generally for the election of directors, and (ii) the term "beneficial
ownership" shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange
Act.

                  The restrictions set forth in this Section 6.4 shall be
ineffective upon the occurrence of either of the following events: (i) an
unrelated third party has publicly announced and is actively pursuing the
purchase of all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock of the
Company or a merger in which the Company would not be the surviving
corporation; or (ii) an officer of the Company, duly authorized by the
Company's Board of Directors, has informed the Investor in writing of the
Company's potential interest in entering into a sale of all or substantially
all of its assets or stock or a merger in which the Company would not be the
surviving corporation; provided, however, that if such acquisition, merger or
sale is not consummated within sixty days of such public announcement (in the
case of clause (i)) or of such notice in writing (in the case of clause (ii)),
the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.4 shall be reinstated.

         6.5 Voting Agreements. For a period ending on the seventh anniversary
of the Closing, the Investor agrees to vote all shares of Voting Securities
owned by it (i) in each election of directors for the entire slate of nominees
recommended by the Company's Board of Directors to the Company's shareholders
and (ii) on all other matters to be voted on by holders of Voting Securities,
unless the Company otherwise consents in writing, in the same proportion as the
votes cast by all other shareholders of the Company entitled to vote on such
matter (other than the Investor). The Investor, as a holder of Voting
Securities, shall be present, in person or by proxy, at all meetings of
shareholders of the Company so that all shares of Voting Securities
beneficially owned by it may be counted for the purpose of determining the
presence of a quorum at such meetings.

                  The voting agreements set forth in this Section 6.5 shall
terminate immediately if an unrelated third party has publicly announced and is
actively pursuing the purchase of all or substantially all of the assets or
capital stock of the Company or a merger in which the Company would not be the
surviving corporation; provided, however, that if such acquisition, merger or
sale is not consummated within sixty days of such public announcement, the
voting agreements set forth in this Section 6.5 shall be reinstated.

         6.6 Hart-Scott-Rodino. The Company and the Investor will assist and
cooperate with each other regarding any filings required under the HSR Act and
any other applicable laws and regulations. The Company and the Investor each
agree to make any HSR Act and other filings promptly upon the other's request.

         6.7 Registration of Stock. The Company agrees that, upon request by
the Investor on or after June 3, 2000, it will effect registration of the Stock
in accordance with the provisions contained in Exhibit A attached hereto. The
Investor understands and agrees that (i) the Stock will be characterized as
"restricted securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as it is
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




                                       6
<PAGE>   7





without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited
circumstances, and (ii) each certificate representing the Stock and any other
securities issued in respect of the Stock upon any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization, merger or similar event (unless no longer required in the
opinion of counsel for the Company) shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted
with appropriate legends mandated by federal and state securities laws.

time after June 3, 2000, a written request from the Investor that the Company
effect a registration on a Form S-3 and any related qualification or compliance
with respect to the Stock, then the Company shall, as expeditiously as
reasonably possible, effect the registration of all, but not less than all,
such Stock on Form S-3 and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so
requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all of
the Stock. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any registration of
less than all of the Stock.

         (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.2, the
         Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration,
         qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 1.2: (i) if the
         Company shall furnish to the Investor a certificate signed by the
         President of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of
         the Board of Directors of the Company, such registration should be
         deferred due to material events directly relating to the Company, in
         which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of
         the Form S-3 for a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of
         the request of the Investor under this Section 1.2 (provided, however,
         that the Company may defer such registration only once); or (ii) in
         any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to
         qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of
         process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.

         (b) If Form S-3 is not available to the Company to effect the
         registration of the Stock as contemplated by this Section 1.2, then
         (i) the Company shall effect such registration on Form S-1 and (ii) in
         such event, all references in this Section 1 to Form S-3 shall be read
         as references to Form S-1.

         (c) The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any
         action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 1.2 after
         the earlier to occur of the following events: (i) the Company has
         effected one registration pursuant to this Section 1.2, and such
         registration has been declared or ordered effective and otherwise
         satisfies and continues to satisfy the terms and conditions of this
         Section 1.2; or (ii) the Company has voluntarily effected the
         registration of all of the Stock without having first received a
         request for such registration pursuant to this Section 1.2 (a
         "Voluntary Registration"), and such Voluntary Registration has been
         declared or ordered effective and otherwise satisfies and continues to
         satisfy the terms and conditions of this Section 1.2.

         1.3 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under Section 1.2 to
effect the registration on Form S-3 of the Stock, the Company shall, as
expeditiously as reasonably possible:

         (a) Prepare and file with the SEC a Form S-3 with respect to such
         Stock and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to
         become effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the mailing
         of the request for such registration but in no event later than ninety
         (90) days after such mailing. The Company shall keep such registration
         statement effective until the earlier of (i) two (2) years after the
         Closing, (ii) the distribution of all of the Stock as contemplated in
         the registration statement has been completed, and (iii) the date
         which all shares of the Stock held by the Investor may immediately be
         sold under Rule 144 during any 90-day period.

         (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to
         such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with
         such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the
         provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all
         securities covered by such registration statement.

         (c) Furnish to the Investor such numbers of copies of a prospectus,
         including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
         requirements of the Act, and such other documents as the Investor may
         reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the
         Stock.

         (d) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities
         covered by such registration statement under such other securities or
         Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested
         by the Investor; provided that the Company shall not be required in
         connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do
         business or to file a general consent to service of process in any
         such states or jurisdictions.




                                       2

         (e) Notify the Investor covered by such registration statement at any
         time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered
         under the Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the
         prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect,
         includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
         material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
         statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances
         then existing.

         (f) Cause all such Stock registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on
         each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the
         Company are then listed.

         (g) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all of the Stock
         registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Stock,
         in each case not later than the effective date of such registration.

         1.4 Investor Obligation to Furnish Information. It shall be a
condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action
pursuant hereto with respect to the Stock that the Investor shall furnish to
the Company such information regarding itself, the Stock, and the intended
method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the
registration of such Stock.

         1.5 Expenses of Registration. All expenses incurred in connection with
registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant hereto, including (without
limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers' and
accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company (including
fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in its capacity as counsel to
the Investor hereunder but excluding the fees and disbursements of any other
counsel for the Investor) shall be borne by the Company; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any
registration proceeding begun pursuant hereto if the registration request is
subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Investor, unless the Investor
agrees to forfeit its right to any demand registration pursuant hereto;
provided further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Investor
has learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or
prospects of the Company from that known to the Investor at the time of its
request and has withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness following
disclosure by the Company of such material adverse change, then the Investor
shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall retain its right of
registration pursuant to Section 1.2.

         1.6 Indemnification. In the event any Stock is included in a
registration statement under Section 1.2:

         (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and
         hold harmless the Investor, any underwriter (as defined in the Act)
         for the Investor and each person, if any, who controls the Investor or
         underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the 1934 Act, against any
         losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which
         they may become subject under the Act, the 1934 Act or other federal
         or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities
         (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of
         the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a
         "Violation"):




                                       3
<PAGE>   13






                  (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
                  material fact contained in such registration statement,
                  including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus
                  contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto,

                  (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
                  material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to
                  make the statements therein not misleading, or

                  (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of
                  the Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities law or any rule
                  or regulation promulgated under the Act, the 1934 Act or any
                  state securities law; and the Company will pay to the
                  Investor, or such underwriter or controlling person, as
                  incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
                  them in connection with investigating or defending any such
                  loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however,
                  that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (a)
                  shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such
                  loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement
                  is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent
                  shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be
                  liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage,
                  liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or
                  is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and
                  in conformity with written information furnished expressly
                  for use in connection with such registration by any such
                  Investor, underwriter or controlling person.

         (b) To the extent permitted by law, the Investor will indemnify and
         hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers
         who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who
         controls the Company within the meaning of the Act, any underwriter,
         and any controlling person of any such underwriter, against any
         losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which
         any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Act, the
         1934 Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses,
         claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise
         out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent
         (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon
         and in conformity with written information furnished by such Investor
         expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such
         Investor will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably
         incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this
         subsection (b), in connection with investigating or defending any such
         loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the
         indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (b) shall not apply
         to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage,
         liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent
         of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;
         provided, that, in no event shall any indemnity under this subsection
         (b) exceed the gross proceeds from the offering received by the
         Investor.

         (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
         1.6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
         governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in
         respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under
         this Section 1.6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice
         of the


                                       4

<PAGE>   14




         commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right
         to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so
         desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed,
         to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to
         the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together
         with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without
         conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate
         counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying
         party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel
         retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to
         actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party
         and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding.
         The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within
         a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if
         prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
         indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under
         this Section 1.6, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the
         indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may
         have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 1.6.

         (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.6 is held by
         a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified
         party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
         referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of
         indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the
         amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such
         loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is
         appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on
         the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection
         with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
         liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant
         equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party
         and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to,
         among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of
         a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to
         information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified
         party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
         information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
         omission.

         (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions
         on indemnification and contribution contained in an underwriting
         agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public
         offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions
         in the underwriting agreement shall control.

         (f) The obligations of the Company and the Investor under this Section
         1.6 shall survive the completion of any offering of the Stock in a
         registration statement pursuant hereto, and otherwise.

         1.7 Termination. The Company's obligation to register the Stock
pursuant to this agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the second
anniversary of the Closing and (ii) the date on which all shares of the Stock
held by the Investor may immediately be sold under Rule 144 during any 90-day
period.


                                       5
