authorized capital of the Company shall consist of:

                      (a) 44,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, of which (i)

Company pursuant to its 1999 Revised Stock Plan duly adopted by the Board of
Directors and approved by the Company's stockholders (the "Stock Plan"). Of such

restricted stock purchase agreements, options to purchase 382,215 shares of
Common Stock and 516,976 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock have been granted
and are currently outstanding, and no shares of Common Stock remain available

<PAGE>   8
other than restrictions on transfer under this Agreement, the Investors' Rights
Agreement, the Co-Sale Agreement and applicable federal and state securities
laws and will be issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state
securities laws of the United States and, where applicable, provincial
securities laws of Canada.

               2.7 GOVERNMENTAL CONSENTS. No consent, approval, order or
authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or
filing with, any federal, state or local governmental authority of the United
States, or, where applicable, any federal, provincial or local government
authority of Canada, on the part of the Company is required in connection with
the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for
filings pursuant to applicable state and, where applicable, provincial
securities laws and Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"). The offer, sale and issuance of the Stock, in accordance with
the terms hereof for the consideration expressed herein, are exempt from the
registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act and from the
qualification requirements of applicable state securities laws.

               2.8 LITIGATION. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
investigation pending or, to the Company's knowledge, currently threatened
against the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or any basis therefor known to
the Company, that questions the validity of the Transaction Documents or the
right of the Company to enter into them, or to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, or that might result, either individually or in
the aggregate, in any material adverse change in the financial condition,
assets, liabilities, operations or financial performance of the Company,
financially or otherwise, or any change in the current equity ownership of the
Company. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is a party or subject
to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any
court or government agency or instrumentality. There is no action, suit,
proceeding or investigation by the Company or any of its subsidiaries currently
pending or which the Company or any of its subsidiaries intends to initiate. The
foregoing includes, without limitation, actions pending or threatened (or any
basis therefor known to the Company) involving the prior employment of any of
the Company's employees, their use in connection with the Company's business of
any information or technologies allegedly proprietary to any of their former
employers, or their obligations under any agreements with prior employees.

               2.9 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. To the Company's knowledge, (i) the
Company owns or possesses sufficient legal rights to all patents, trademarks,
service marks, tradenames, copyrights, trade secrets, licenses, information and
proprietary rights and processes (collectively, "Intellectual Property")
necessary for its business without any conflict with, or infringement of, the
rights of others; and (ii) no third party is infringing or violating any of the
Company's Intellectual Property. The Company has not received any written
communications alleging that the Company has violated or, by conducting its
business, would violate any of the Intellectual Property of any other person or
entity. There are no outstanding options, licenses or agreements of any kind
related to the foregoing, nor is the Company bound by or a party to any options,
licenses or agreements of any kind with respect to the Intellectual Property of
any other forms.

<PAGE>   9

               2.10 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION AND INVENTION ASSIGNMENT
AGREEMENTS. Each director, officer, independent contractor, consultant and
employee of the Company (collectively, "Service Providers") have entered into an
agreement with the Company, substantially in the form or forms delivered to the
Purchasers, regarding confidentiality, non-solicitation of employees and
customers and assignment of all Intellectual Property, technical information and
other information developed and/or worked on by such Service Provider while
employed or engaged with the Company (each, a "Confidentiality and Invention
Assignment Agreement"). To the Company's knowledge, (i) no past or present
Service Provider is in violation of any term of any Confidentiality and
Invention Assignment Agreement between the Company and such Service Provider;
and (ii) it is not nor will it be necessary to use any inventions of any of its
Service Providers (or persons it currently intends to hire) made prior to their
employment or engagement by the Company. Each Service Provider hired or engaged
by the Company after the date hereof shall, prior to their employment or
engagement with the Company, enter into a Confidentiality and Invention
Assignment Agreement with the Company.

               2.11 COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER INSTRUMENTS. The Company is not in
violation in any material respect or default of any provisions of its Restated
Certificate or Bylaws or of any provision, instrument, agreement, commitment,
arrangement, license, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract to which it is a
party or by which it is bound or, to its knowledge, of any provision of federal
or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, which violation
or default is reasonably likely to result in a material adverse effect on the
financial condition, assets, liabilities, operations or financial performance of
the Company. No event has occurred which with the passage of time or the giving
of notice, or both, would constitute a material breach of or default under any
of the foregoing, which material violation or breach or default is reasonably
likely to result in a material adverse effect on the financial condition,
assets, liabilities, operations or financial performance of the Company. The
execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not result in any
such violation or breach or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without
the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any such
provision, agreement, commitment, arrangement, license, instrument, judgment,
order, writ, decree or contract or an event which results in the creation of any
lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company. Neither the
execution or delivery of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of the Company's
business by the employees of the Company, nor the conduct of the Company's
business as proposed, will, to the Company's knowledge, conflict in any material
respect with or result in a material breach of the terms, conditions, or
provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or
instrument under which any of the Company's employees is now obligated.

               2.12 AGREEMENTS; ACTION.

                      (a) There are no agreements, understandings or proposed
transactions between the Company and any of its officers, directors, affiliates
or any affiliate thereof.

                      (b) Except as explicitly contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, there are no agreements, understandings, instruments, contracts or
proposed transactions to



                                       5

which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound
that involve (i) obligations (contingent or otherwise) of, or payments to, the
Company or any of its subsidiaries in excess of $50,000, (ii) the license of any
patent, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary right to or from the
Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (iii) the grant of rights to manufacture,
produce, assemble, license, market, or sell its products to any other person or
affect the Company's exclusive right to develop, manufacture, assemble,
distribute, market or sell its products.

                      (c) Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has
(i) declared or paid any dividends, or authorized or made any distribution upon
or with respect to any class or series of its capital stock, (ii) incurred any
indebtedness for money borrowed or incurred any other liabilities individually

contained in Section 2, all references to the "Company" shall be deemed to

        4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS. Each Purchaser
hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

               4.1 AUTHORIZATION. Such Purchaser has full power and authority
to enter into the Transaction Documents. The Transaction Documents, when
executed and delivered by the Purchaser, will constitute valid and legally
binding obligations of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, and any other laws of general
application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and as limited
by laws relating to the availability of a specific performance, injunctive
relief, or other equitable remedies, or (b) to the extent the indemnification
provisions contained in the Investors' Rights Agreement may be limited by
applicable federal or state securities laws.

               4.2 PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT. This Agreement is made
with the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser's representations to the
Company, which by the Purchaser's execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser
hereby confirms, that the Securities to be acquired by the Purchaser will be
acquired for investment for the Purchaser's own account, not as a nominee or
agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof in



                                       11
<PAGE>   16

violation of the Securities Act, and that the Purchaser has no present intention
of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same in
violation of the Securities Act. By executing this Agreement, the Purchaser
further represents that the Purchaser does not presently 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. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of
acquiring the Securities.

               4.3 DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. The Purchaser has had an
opportunity to discuss the Company's business, management, financial affairs and
the terms and conditions of the offering of the Stock with the Company's

information delivered by the Company to the Purchaser, were intended to describe
the aspects of the Company's business which it believes to be material.

               4.4 RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The Purchaser understands that the
Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act,
by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the
Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of
the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser's representations as
expressed herein. The Purchaser understands that the Securities are "restricted
securities" under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that,
pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must hold the Securities indefinitely
unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and
qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and
qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser acknowledges that the
Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Securities for resale
except as set forth in the Investors' Rights Agreement. The Purchaser further
acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is
available, it may be conditioned on various requirements, including, but not
limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities,
and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser's
control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to
satisfy except as specifically provided in the Investors' Rights Agreement.

               4.5 NO PUBLIC MARKET. The Purchaser understands that no public
market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company, and that the
Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the
Securities.

and any securities issued in respect of or exchange for the Securities, may bear
one or all of the following legends:

                      (a) "THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR
INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR
DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN

the Securities, will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the
Purchaser's jurisdiction.

will be obligated for any finder's fee or commission in connection with this
transaction except as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions. Each Purchaser
agrees to indemnify and to hold harmless the Company from any liability for any

               8.10 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS OF AGREEMENT. Any term of this
Agreement may be amended or waived only with the written consent of the Company

right, power or remedy accruing to any party under this Agreement, upon any
breach or default of any other party under this Agreement, shall impair any such
right, power or remedy of such non-breaching or non-defaulting party nor shall
it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence
therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor
shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other
breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit,
consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any
breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party
of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and signed
by the party charged with such waiver and such waiver shall be effective only to
the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under

<PAGE>   24

furnish or make accessible to anyone any confidential information, knowledge or
data concerning or relating to the business or financial affairs of the other
parties to which such party has been or shall become privy by reason of this
Agreement, discussions or negotiations relating to this Agreement, the

hereunder; provided, however, that the receiving party may disclose such
information (i) on a confidential basis to its attorneys, accountants,
consultants and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their
services in connection with its investment in the Company, (ii) to any
prospective purchaser of Stock from the such receiving party as long as such
prospective purchaser agrees in writing to be bound by the provisions of this
Section 8.13, (iii) on a confidential basis to any affiliate or partner of such
receiving party and (iv) as required by judicial decree or applicable law. The
provisions of this Section 8.13 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution
for, the provisions of any separate nondisclosure agreement executed by the
parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.

               8.14 EXCULPATION AMONG PURCHASERS. Each Purchaser acknowledges
that it is not relying upon any person, firm or corporation, other than the
Company and its officers and directors, in making its investment or decision to
invest in the Company. Each Purchaser agrees that no Purchaser nor the
respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents, or
employees of any Purchaser shall be liable to any other Purchaser for any action
heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in
connection with the purchase of the Securities.

               8.15 INDEMNIFICATION. The Company shall defend, indemnify and
hold the Purchasers harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities,

and costs of suit, arising out of any breach of the representations and
warranties, and out of any and all breaches of covenants, warranties,
stipulations, agreements and certifications made by or on behalf of the Company,
in the Transaction Documents or in any document delivered hereunder or
thereunder.
