enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or similar laws

the Securities Act in a private placement that is exempt from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act and (ii) the availability of such exemption
depends in part on, and the Company will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness

                                   ARTICLE VI

                          DELIVERIES BY THE PURCHASERS

                Not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 9,
2001, the Purchasers shall take the following actions and deliver the following.

                6.1 Payment for Subject Shares and Warrants. Each Purchaser

                                   ARTICLE VII

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

                7.1 Indemnification. Except as otherwise provided in this
Article VII, the Company (the "Indemnifying Party") agrees to indemnify, defend
and hold harmless each of the Purchasers and its Affiliates and their respective
officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners, members and
controlling persons (each, an "Indemnified Party") to the fullest extent
permitted by law from and against any and all losses, Claims, or written threats
thereof (including, without limitation, any Claim by a third party), damages,
expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel
incurred by the Indemnified Party in any action between the Indemnifying Party
and the Indemnified Party or between the Indemnified Party and any third party
or otherwise) or other liabilities (collectively, "Losses") resulting from or
arising out of any breach of any representation or warranty, covenant or
agreement by the

<PAGE>
                                                                              25

Company in this Agreement, the Stockholders Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or
the Warrants. The amount of any payment to any Indemnified Party herewith in
respect of any Loss shall be of sufficient amount to make such Indemnified Party
whole for any diminution in value of the Subject Shares directly caused by such
breach. In connection with the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify
for expenses as set forth above, the Indemnifying Party shall, upon presentation
of appropriate invoices containing reasonable detail, reimburse each Indemnified
Party for all such expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other
charges of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in any action between the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party or between the Indemnified Party
and any third party) as they are incurred by such Indemnified Party; provided,
however, that if an Indemnified Party is reimbursed under this Article VII for
any expenses, such reimbursement of expenses shall be refunded to the extent it
is finally judicially determined that the Losses in question resulted primarily
from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party.

                7.2 Notification. Each Indemnified Party under this Article VII
shall, promptly after the receipt of notice of the commencement of any Claim
against such Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought from
the Indemnifying Party under this Article VII, notify the Indemnifying Party in
writing of the commencement thereof. The omission of any Indemnified Party to so
notify the Indemnifying Party of any such action shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified
Party (a) other than pursuant to this Article VII or (b) under this Article VII
unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the Indemnifying
Party's forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses. In case any such Claim
shall be brought against any Indemnified Party, and it shall notify the
Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be
entitled to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with counsel
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in its reasonable judgment; provided,
however, that any Indemnified Party may, at its own expense, retain separate
counsel to participate in such defense at its own expense. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in any Claim in which both the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand,
and an Indemnified Party, on the other hand, are, or are reasonably likely to
become, a party, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate
counsel and to control its own defense of such Claim if, in the reasonable
opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, either (x) one or more defenses
are available to the Indemnified Party that are not available to the
Indemnifying Party or (y) a conflict or potential conflict exists between the
Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other
hand, that would make such separate representation advisable; provided, however,
that the Indemnifying Party (i) shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of
more than one counsel to all Indemnified Parties and (ii) shall reimburse the
Indemnified Parties for all of such fees and expenses of such counsel incurred
in any action between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties or
between the Indemnified Parties and any third party, as such expenses are
incurred; provided, however, that if an Indemnified Party is reimbursed under
this Article VII for any expenses, such reimbursement of expenses shall be
refunded to the extent it is finally judicially determined that the Losses in
question resulted primarily from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of
such Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party agrees that it will not, without
the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party,

<PAGE>
                                                                              26

settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or
threatened Claim relating to the matters contemplated hereby (if any Indemnified
Party is a party thereto or has been actually threatened to be made a party
thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional
release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising or that may arise
out of such Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement
of any Claim effected against an Indemnified Party without the Indemnifying
Party's written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
rights accorded to an Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to any
rights that any Indemnified Party may have at common law, by separate agreement
or otherwise; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Article VII shall
restrict or limit any rights that any Indemnified Party may have to seek
equitable relief.

                7.3 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this
Article VII from the Indemnifying Party is unavailable to an Indemnified Party
hereunder in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then the Indemnifying
Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions which
resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative faults of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question,
including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission
or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to
information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a
result of the Losses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to
the limitations set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2, any reasonable legal or other
fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with
any investigation or proceeding.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                              AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

                The Company hereby covenants and agrees with the Purchasers as

                8.1 Financial Statements and Other Information. If any time the

consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the end of
such fiscal year and the related statements of operations and cash flows for
such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in

<PAGE>
                                                                              27

comparative form the figures for the previous year, all in reasonable detail and
accompanied by a management summary and analysis of the operations of the
Company for such fiscal year and by the opinion of a nationally recognized
independent certified public accounting firm which report shall state without
qualification that such financial statements present fairly the financial
condition as of such date and results of operations and cash flows for the
periods indicated in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis;

                (b) as soon as available, but in any event not later than
forty-five (45) days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of
each fiscal year, the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company and
its Subsidiaries, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for
such quarter and for the period commencing on the first day of the fiscal year
and ending on the last day of such quarter, all certified by an appropriate
officer of the Company as presenting fairly the consolidated financial condition
as of such date and results of operations and cash flows for the periods
indicated in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis, subject to
normal year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes required by GAAP;

                (c) as soon as available, but in any event not later than ten
(10) days after the end of each month of each fiscal year, the unaudited
consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the related
statements of operations and cash flows for such month and for the period
commencing on the first day of the fiscal year and ending on the last day of
such month, all certified by an appropriate officer of the Company as presenting
fairly the consolidated financial condition as of such date and results of
operations and cash flows for the periods indicated in conformity with GAAP
applied on a consistent basis, subject to normal year-end adjustments and the
absence of footnotes required by GAAP; and

                8.2 FIRPTA Certificate. If requested by any of the Purchasers,
as promptly as practicable, but not later than five (5) days after the end of
each fiscal year of the Company, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser, in
form and substance satisfactory to such Purchaser, a certificate signed by the
Chief Executive Officer of the Company in customary form certifying that the
Company is not a "foreign person" within the meaning of Section 1445 of the
Code; and

                8.3 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, solely
for the purpose of issue or delivery upon conversion of the Subject Shares and
exercise of the Warrants, as provided in the Certificate of Designation and
Warrants respectively, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be
issuable or deliverable upon such conversion or exercise. Such shares of Common
Stock are duly authorized and, when issued or delivered in accordance with the
Certificate of Designation and Warrants, shall be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable. The Company shall issue such shares of Common Stock, in
accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designation and Warrants, and
otherwise comply with the terms hereof and thereof.

                                                                              28

                8.4 Books and Records. The Company shall keep proper books of

with GAAP consistently applied.

                8.5 Inspection. The Company shall permit representatives of the
Purchasers to visit and inspect any of its properties, to examine its corporate,
financial and operating records and make copies thereof or abstracts therefrom,
and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with their respective
directors, officers and independent public accountants, all at such reasonable
times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably requested
upon reasonable advance notice to the Company.

                8.6 Vectis Agreement. The Company shall as soon as practicable
after the date hereof, but not later than the date the Escrow Release Condition
is satisfied, terminate the Vectis Agreement.

                8.7 NASDAQ Matters.

                (a) The Company shall take all action required and shall make
all submissions that are reasonably necessary to obtain written confirmation
reasonably satisfactory to the GAP Purchasers from the Nasdaq that the approval
of a majority of the Company's stockholders, present in person or proxy at a
properly convened meeting of the Company's stockholders ("Stockholder Approval")
to the issuance of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock to the GAP Purchasers
is not required under the applicable Nasdaq rules and regulations in order to
satisfy the Nasdaq Escrow Approval Condition. If the Company cannot obtain such
written confirmation by January 31, 2001, it shall take all action required by
the Nasdaq and applicable California law (including the actions referred to in
Section 8.7(b)) to obtain Stockholder Approval for the issuance to the GAP
Purchasers of the portion of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock that
constitute the amount of shares of Series D Preferred Stock (determined assuming
conversion of all of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock) in excess of 19.9%
of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock on the date hereof (the
"Applicable Stockholder Approval"). The Board of Directors shall recommend that
the Company's stockholders vote in favor of the Applicable Stockholder Approval.

                (b) If required pursuant to Section 8.7(a) of this Agreement,
promptly after November 30, 2001, the Company will prepare and file with the
Commission a proxy statement to be distributed to the Company's stockholders in
connection with the solicitation of votes in favor of the Applicable Stockholder
Approval, including any amendments or supplements thereto (the "Proxy
Statement"). The Company will use all reasonable commercial efforts to have or
cause the Proxy Statement to be cleared by the Commission as promptly as
practicable. The Company agrees to provide the Purchasers and their respective
counsel with any written comments the Company or its counsel may receive from
the Commission with respect to the Proxy Statement promptly after the receipt of
such comments. The Company will use all reasonable commercial efforts to cause
the Proxy Statement (i) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make

<PAGE>
                                                                              29

the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made,
not misleading and (ii) to comply as to form in all material respects with the
applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder. Following clearance by the Commission of the Proxy Statement, the
Company shall promptly distribute the Proxy Statement to its stockholders and
call and arrange for a special meeting of stockholders and take such other
actions as are required or necessary in order to obtain the Applicable
Stockholder Approval as promptly as practicable.

                9.1 Termination. This Agreement shall be terminated and be of no
further force or effect on the Escrow Termination Date (as defined in the Escrow

                10.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All of the
representations and warranties made herein shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement until the date that is ninety (90) days after the
receipt by the Purchasers of audited financial statements of the Company for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 2002 (or, if such fiscal year changes and no
such audited consolidated financial statements are available, then the successor
fiscal year), except for (a) Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.7, 3.13 and 3.22, which
representations and warranties shall survive until the third anniversary of the
Closing Date, and (b) Section 3.11, which shall survive until the later to occur
of (i) the lapse of the statute of limitations with respect to the assessment of
any Tax to which such representation and warranty relates (including any
extensions or waivers thereof) and (ii) sixty (60) days after the final
administrative or judicial determination of the Taxes to which such
representation and warranty relates, and no claim with respect to Section 3.11
may be asserted thereafter with the exception of claims arising out of any fact,
circumstance, action or proceeding to which the party asserting such claim shall
have given notice to the other parties to this Agreement prior to the
termination of such period of reasonable belief that a tax liability will
subsequently arise therefrom.

Securities proposed to be issued and (y) the proposed purchase price per

Issuance Notice, such offer shall be irrevocable unless and until the rights

<PAGE>

                                (a) For a period of twenty (20) days after the
giving of the New Issuance Notice pursuant to Section 2.1, each of the
Preemptive Rightholders shall have the right to purchase its Proportionate
Percentage (as hereinafter defined) of the New Securities at a purchase price
equal to the Proposed Price and upon the same terms and conditions set forth in
the New Issuance Notice. Each Preemptive Rightholder shall have the right to
purchase that percentage of the New Securities determined by dividing (x) the
total number of Shares then owned by such Preemptive Rightholder by (y) the
total number of Shares owned by all of the Preemptive Rightholders (the
"Proportionate Percentage"). If any Preemptive Rightholder does not fully
subscribe for the number or amount of New Securities that it or he is entitled
to purchase pursuant to the preceding sentence, then each Preemptive Rightholder
which elected to purchase New Securities shall have the right for a five (5) day
period to purchase that percentage of the remaining New Securities not so
subscribed for (for the purposes of this Section 2.2(a), the "Excess New
Securities") determined by dividing (x) the total number of Shares then owned by
such fully participating Preemptive Rightholder by (y) the total number of
Shares then owned by all fully participating Preemptive Rightholders who elected
to purchase Excess New Securities. Each of the Stockholders may transfer all or
any portion of its rights to purchase New Securities under this Section 2 to any
of its Affiliates.

                                (b) The right of each Preemptive Rightholder to
purchase the New Securities or Excess New Securities, as the case may be, under
subsection (a) above shall be exercisable by delivering written notice of the
exercise thereof, prior to the expiration of the 20-day period referred to in
subsection (a) above with respect to New Securities or prior to the expiration
of the 5-day period referred to in subsection (a) above with respect to Excess
New Securities, to the Company, which notice shall state the amount of New
Securities that such Preemptive Rightholder elects to purchase pursuant to
Section 2.2(a). The failure of a Preemptive Rightholder to respond within such
20-day or 5-day period shall be deemed to be a waiver of such Preemptive
Rightholder's rights under Section 2.2(a), provided that each Preemptive
Rightholder may waive its rights under Section 2.2(a) prior to the expiration of
such 20-day or 5-day period by giving written notice to the Company.

                        2.3 Closing. The closing of the purchase of New
Securities or Excess New Securities subscribed for by the Preemptive
Rightholders under Section 2.2 shall be held at the executive office of the
Company at 11:00 a.m., local time, on (a) the 30th day after the giving of the
New Issuance Notice pursuant to Section 2.1, if the Preemptive Rightholders
elect to purchase all of the New Securities under Section 2.2, (b) the date of
the closing of the sale to the Subject Purchaser made pursuant to Section 2.4 if
the Preemptive Rightholders elect to purchase some, but not all, of the New
Securities under Section 2.2 or (c) at such other time and place as the parties
to the transaction may agree. At such closing, the Company shall deliver
certificates representing the New Securities, and such New Securities shall be
issued free and clear of all Liens (other than those attributable to actions by
the purchasers thereof) and the Company shall so represent and warrant, and
further represent and warrant (in addition to other customary representations
and warranties) that such New Securities shall be, upon

                                                                               7

issuance thereof to the Preemptive Rightholders and after payment therefor, duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Each Preemptive
Rightholder purchasing the New Securities shall deliver at the closing payment
in full in immediately available funds for the New Securities purchased by him
or it. At such closing all of the parties to the transaction shall execute such
additional documents as are customary for transactions of this type.

                        2.4 Sale to Subject Purchaser. The Company may sell to
the Subject Purchaser all of the New Securities not purchased by the Preemptive
Rightholders pursuant to Section 2.2 on terms and conditions that are no more
favorable to the Subject Purchaser than those set forth in the New Issuance
Notice; provided, however, that such sale is bona fide and made pursuant to a
contract entered into within ninety (90) days following the earlier to occur of
(i) the waiver by the Preemptive Rightholders of their option to purchase New
Securities or Excess New Securities pursuant to Section 2.2, or (ii) the
expiration of the 20-day or 5-day period referred to in Section 2.2. If such
sale is not consummated within such 90-day period for any reason, then the
restrictions provided for herein shall again become effective, and no issuance
and sale of New Securities may be made thereafter by the Company without again
offering the same in accordance with this Section 2. The closing of any issuance
and sale pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be held at a time and place as the
parties to the transaction may agree within such 90-day period.

capital stock, or become a "participant" in any "election contest" (as such
terms are used or defined in Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act) relating to the
election of directors of the Company; provided, however, that none of the
General Atlantic Stockholders, the Coinvestor Stockholders or any of their
respective Affiliates shall be deemed to have engaged in a "solicitation" or to
have become a "participant" by reason of the membership of designees of the
General Atlantic Stockholders, the Coinvestor Stockholders or any of their
respective Affiliates on the Board of Directors;

                        (c) form, join or in any way participate in a "group"

Limited and any Affiliate thereof that acquires shares of the Company's capital

Atlantic Stockholders, the Vectis Stockholders and the Cenwell Stockholders may
not together act as a group for all purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or
disposing of any shares of the Company's capital stock; or

                        (d) request the Company (or its directors, officers,
employees or agents), to take any action which would reasonably be expected to
require pursuant to law the Company to make a public announcement or proposal or
offer with respect to (i) any form of business combination or transaction
involving the Company including, without limitation, a merger, consolidation,
tender or exchange offer, sale or purchase of assets, or dissolution or
liquidation of the Company or (ii) instigate, encourage or assist any Person to
do any of the foregoing.

                        5.3 Amendment and Waiver.

                                (a) No failure or delay on the part of any party
hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right,
power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for herein are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be available to the
parties hereto at law, in equity or otherwise.

                                (b) Any amendment, supplement or modification of
or to any provision of this Agreement, any waiver of any provision of this
Agreement, and any consent to any departure by any party from the terms of any

writing and signed by (i) the Company, (ii) the General Atlantic Stockholders
and (iii) the Coinvestor Stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of
the Shares held by the Coinvestor Stockholders; provided, however, that to the
extent that any such amendment or waiver adversely affects any of the

of each Stockholder so adversely affected; provided further, that any
Stockholder may waive in writing any right that inures to such Stockholder. Any
such amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or consent shall be binding
upon the Company and all of the Stockholders.

                        5.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each
of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

                        5.5 Specific Performance. The parties hereto intend that
each of the parties have the right to seek damages or specific performance in
the event that any other party hereto fails to perform such party's obligations
hereunder. Therefore, if any party shall institute any action or proceeding to
enforce the provisions hereof, any party against whom such action or proceeding
is brought hereby waives any claim or defense therein that the plaintiff party
has an adequate remedy at law.

                        5.6 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the

unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and
enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining
provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired, unless the provisions held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable shall substantially impair the benefits of the
remaining provisions hereof.

                        5.9 Rules of Construction. Unless the context otherwise
requires, references to sections or subsections refer to sections or subsections
of this Agreement.

exhibits hereto, is intended by the parties as a final expression of their
agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement

                        5.11 Term of Agreement. Unless the Escrow Termination
Date (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) shall have occurred, in which case
this Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force or effect,
