Delaware Law (the time of such filing being the “Effective Time”).

          2.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as

               (a) At the Effective Time, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall

as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that
Article I of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended to read
as follows: “The name of the corporation is Tacit Networks, Inc.”

               (b) The Bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be
the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended.

          2.5 Directors and Officers.

6

 

               (a) Directors. Effective as of the Effective Time, each of the directors of Target
shall resign from the board of directors of Target. The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior
to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time, to
serve until the earlier of their respective resignation or removal or until their respective
successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified, as the case may be.

               (b) Officers. The officers of Target immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be
the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation and shall hold office until the earlier of their
death, resignation or removal.

          2.6 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and
without any action on the part of Merger Sub, Target or the holders of any of the following
securities:

               (a) Conversion of Target Capital Stock. Each share of Target Capital Stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares canceled pursuant to Section
2.6(b)) shall be converted and exchanged, without any action on the part of the holders thereof,
into the right to receive, upon surrender of the certificate representing such share of Target
Capital Stock, an amount in cash (in aggregate, the “Merger Consideration”) as follows:

                    (i) in the case of Target’s Series A Preferred Stock, an amount per share equal to (A) the
Series A Preference Amount, plus (B) the Secondary Per Share Merger Consideration;

                    (ii) in the case of Target’s Series B Preferred Stock, an amount per share equal to (A) the
Series B Preference Amount, plus (B) the Secondary Per Share Merger Consideration;

                    (iii) in the case of Target’s Series C Preferred Stock, an amount per share equal to (A) the
Series C Preference Amount, plus (B) the Secondary Per Share Merger Consideration; and

                    (iv) in the case of the Target’s Common Stock, an amount per share equal to the Secondary Per
Share Merger Consideration.

               (b) Cancellation of Target Capital Stock Owned by Acquiror. At the Effective Time,
each share of Target Capital Stock owned by Acquiror or any direct or indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of Acquiror immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished
without any conversion thereof.

               (c) Target Stock Options. At the Effective Time, each option to purchase Target
Common Stock then outstanding under the Target Option Plan (as defined in Section 3.5) (“Target
Options”) shall be assumed by Acquiror in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.7.

               (d) Merger Consideration Allocation. Attached as Schedule A is a spreadsheet
illustrating the allocation of the Merger Consideration among the holders of the

7

 

Target Capital
Stock (including the Applicable Escrow Ownership Percentage for each such holder), assuming that
(i) no stock options are granted by Target following the date hereof, and (ii) none of the Target
Options outstanding as of the date hereof are exercised on or before the Closing (the
“Allocation Spreadsheet”).

               (e) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. At the Effective Time, each share of common stock of
Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into
and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the
Surviving Corporation. Each stock certificate of Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any such
shares shall continue to evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving
Corporation.

               (f) Dissenters’ Rights. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, any shares of Target Capital Stock held by a holder who has demanded and perfected such
holder’s right for appraisal of such shares in accordance with Delaware Law and who, as of the
Effective Time, has not effectively withdrawn or lost such right to appraisal (“Dissenting
Shares”), if any, shall not be converted into the Merger Consideration but shall instead be
converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect
to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to Delaware Law. Target shall give Acquiror prompt notice of
any demand received by Target to require Target to purchase shares of Target Capital Stock, and
Acquiror shall have the right to direct and participate in all negotiations and proceedings with
respect to such demand. Target agrees that, except with the prior written consent of Acquiror, or
as required under the Delaware Law, it will not voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or
settle or offer to settle, any such purchase demand. Each holder of Dissenting Shares
(“Dissenting Stockholder”) who, pursuant to the provisions of Delaware Law, becomes
entitled to payment of the fair value for shares of Target Capital Stock shall receive payment
therefore (but only after the value therefore shall have been agreed upon or finally determined
pursuant to such provisions). If, after the Effective Time, any Dissenting Shares shall lose their
status as Dissenting Shares, Acquiror shall issue and deliver, upon surrender by such stockholder
of a certificate or certificates representing shares of Target
Capital Stock, the portion of the Merger Consideration to which such stockholder would
otherwise be entitled under this Section 2.6 and the Certificate of Merger less the portion of the
Merger Consideration allocable to such stockholder that has been deposited in the Escrow Fund in
respect of such shares of Target Capital Stock pursuant to Section 2.7(e) and Section 9 hereof.

          2.7 Surrender of Certificates.

               (a) Exchange Procedures. Each holder of record of a certificate or certificates that
immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Target Capital Stock (the
“Certificates”), whose shares were converted into the right to receive a portion of the
Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.6, shall deliver to Acquiror a letter of transmittal
(the form of which shall have been provided by Acquiror to each such individual prior to the
Effective Time), together with instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates
in exchange for such portion of the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate for
cancellation to Acquiror, together with such letter of transmittal and other documents specified in
the letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions
thereto, and following the Effective Time, the holder of such

8

 

Certificate shall be entitled to
receive in exchange therefor that portion of the Merger Consideration to which such holder is
entitled pursuant to Section 2.6, less the amount of such Merger Consideration to be deposited in
the Escrow Fund on such holder’s behalf pursuant to Sections 2.7(e) and 9 hereof, and the
Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered, each outstanding
Certificate that prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Target Capital Stock will be
deemed from and after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive, upon such
surrender, that portion of the Merger Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to
Section 2.6, less the amount of such Merger Consideration to be deposited in the Escrow Fund on
such holder’s behalf pursuant to Sections 2.7(e) and 9 hereof.

               (b) Transfers of Ownership. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Target
shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers of Target Capital Stock
thereafter on the records of Target. If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to
any person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered in exchange therefore,
it shall be a condition to such exchange that such surrendered Certificate shall be properly
endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and such person either (i) shall pay to Acquiror
any transfer or other taxes required as a result of the distribution of such cash payment to such
person, or (ii) shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Acquiror that such tax has been
paid or is not applicable.

               (c) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.7, none
of Acquiror or any party hereto shall be liable to any person for any amount of the Merger
Consideration paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or
similar law.

               (d) Dissenting Shares. The provisions of this Section 2.7 shall also apply to
Dissenting Shares that lose their status as such, except that the obligations of Acquiror
under this Section 2.7 shall commence on the date of loss of such status and the holder of
such shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange for such shares that portion of the Merger
Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.6 hereof.

               (e) Escrow. Payment of the Merger Consideration shall be subject to a holdback by
Acquiror of an amount equal to $7,850,000 (the “Escrow Amount”). As soon as practicable
after the Effective Time, and subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 hereof,
Acquiror shall deposit the Escrow Amount to be withheld by Acquiror pursuant to this Section 2.7(e)
and Section 9 into escrow with the Escrow Agent (as defined in Section 9 hereof) as a fund (the
“Escrow Fund”) for payment of indemnification claims, if any, made by Acquiror pursuant to
this Agreement, which Escrow Fund shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Escrow
Agreement. To the extent not used for such purposes, such funds shall be released to the Target
stockholders, all as provided in Section 9.

          2.8 No Further Ownership Rights in Target Capital Stock. The Merger Consideration
delivered upon the surrender for exchange of shares of Target Capital Stock in accordance with the
terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to
such shares of Target Capital Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates

9

 

are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and
exchanged as provided in this Section 2.

          2.9 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificates shall have
been lost, stolen or destroyed, Acquiror shall pay in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed
Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof that portion of
the Merger Consideration as may be required pursuant to Section 2.6; provided,
however, that Acquiror may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance
thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such
sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Acquiror or
the Surviving Corporation with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or
destroyed.

          2.10 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. Each of Acquiror, Merger Sub and
Target will take all such reasonable and lawful action as may be necessary or desirable in order to
effectuate the Merger in accordance with this Agreement as promptly as possible. If, at any time
after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of
this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all
assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Target and Merger Sub, the officers
and directors of Target and Merger Sub are fully authorized in the name of their respective
corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as
such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

          2.11 Withholding Rights. Acquiror, the Surviving Corporation and the Escrow Agent
will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise deliverable under this
Agreement, and from any other payments otherwise required pursuant to this Agreement, to any holder
of any shares of Target Capital Stock or any Target Option such amounts as Acquiror, the Surviving
Corporation or the Escrow Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such
deliveries and payments under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign Tax
law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of
this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to such holders in respect of which such deduction
and withholding was made.

     3. Representations and Warranties of Target. Target represents and warrants to
Acquiror and Merger Sub that the statements contained in this Section 3 are true and correct,
except as disclosed in a document of even date herewith and delivered by Target to Acquiror on the
date hereof referring to the representations and warranties in this Agreement (the “Target
Disclosure Schedule”). The Target Disclosure Schedule will be arranged in paragraphs
corresponding to the numbered and lettered paragraphs contained in this Section 3, and the
disclosure in any such numbered and lettered section of the Target Disclosure Schedule shall
qualify only the corresponding subsection in this Section 3 (except to the extent disclosure in any
numbered and lettered section of the Target Disclosure Schedule is specifically cross-referenced in
another numbered and lettered section of the Target Disclosure Schedule or to the extent that it is
readily apparent from such disclosure that the information is clearly applicable to such other
sections of the Target Disclosure Schedule or such other representations and warranties).

10

 

          3.1 Organization, Standing and Power. Target is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of Delaware. Target has the corporate
power to own, use and lease its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted and
as proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each
jurisdiction in which the failure to be so qualified and in good standing could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 10.2) on Target. Target has
delivered a true and correct copy of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Target, each as
amended to date (the “Target Charter Documents”), to Acquiror. Target is not in violation
of any of the provisions of the Target Charter Documents. Target has no Subsidiaries (as defined
in Section 10.2). Target does not directly or indirectly own any equity or similar interest in, or
any interest convertible or exchangeable or exercisable for, any equity or similar interest in, any
corporation, partnership, joint venture or other business association or entity.

          3.2 Authority. Target has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into
this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Target subject only to the approval of
the Merger by Target’s stockholders as contemplated by Section 7.1(a). The affirmative vote of the
holders of (x) a majority of the shares of Target Common Stock and Target Preferred Stock, voting
together as a single class and on an as-converted basis, and (y) sixty-six and two-thirds percent
(66 2/3%) of the Target Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, in each case
outstanding on the record date for the Written Consent of Stockholders relating to this Agreement
is the only vote of the holders of any of the Target Capital Stock necessary under Delaware Law and
the Target Charter Documents to approve this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
The Board of Directors of Target has unanimously (a) approved this Agreement and the Merger; (b)
determined that in its opinion the Merger is in the best interests of the stockholders of Target
and is on terms that are fair to such stockholders; and (c) recommended that the stockholders of
Target approve this Agreement and the Merger. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered
by Target and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Target enforceable against Target in
accordance with its terms, except that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting or relating to creditors’ rights generally,
and is subject to general principles of equity. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by
Target do not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, conflict
with, or result in any violation or breach of, or default under (with or without notice or lapse of
time, or both), or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration
of any material obligation or loss of any material benefit under, or require Target to obtain any
consent or approval of, make any filing with or give any notice to, any person or entity as a
result or under the terms of, (a) any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of
Target, as amended; or (b) any mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other agreement or
instrument, permit, concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, decree, statute, law,
ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Target or any of their properties or assets, except in
the case of this clause (b), (x) as described in the next sentence, or (y) to the extent that such
conflict, violation, breach, default, right or loss, or the failure to obtain such consent or
approval or make such filing or give such notice, could not reasonably be expected to have a
material effect on Target. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration,
declaration or filing with, any government, any governmental or

11

 

quasi-governmental entity or municipality or
political or other subdivision thereof, department, commission, board, self-regulating authority,
bureau, branch, authority, official, agency or instrumentality, and any court, tribunal, arbitrator
or judicial body, in each case, whether federal, state, city, county, local, provincial, foreign or
multi-national (a “Governmental Entity”) is required by or with respect to Target or its
Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Target or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for (a) the filing of the Certificate
of Merger as provided in Section 2.2; (b) such filings as may be required under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (“HSR”); and (c) such
other consents, authorizations, filings, approvals, notices and registrations which, if not
obtained or made, could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Target and
could not reasonably be expected to prevent, or materially alter or delay, any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

          3.3 Governmental Authorization. Target has obtained each federal, state, county,
local or foreign governmental consent, license, permit, grant, or other authorization of a
Governmental Entity (a) pursuant to which Target currently operates or holds any interest in any of
its properties; or (b) that is required for the operation of Target’s business or the holding of
any such interest, in each case which, if not obtained or made, could be reasonably expected to
have a material effect on Target. All of such authorizations are in full force and effect.

          3.4 Financial Statements.

               (a) Target has delivered to Acquiror its audited financial statements for each of the fiscal
years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004, respectively, and its unaudited financial
statements (balance sheet, statement of operations and statement of cash flows) as at and for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 and the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 (collectively,
the “Target Financial Statements”). The Target Financial Statements have been prepared in
accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles as in effect from time to
time as consistently applied (“GAAP”) (except that the unaudited financial statements do
not contain footnotes and are subject to normal recurring year-end audit adjustments, the effect of
which will not, individually or in the aggregate, be materially adverse) applied on a consistent
basis throughout the periods presented and consistent with each other. Target has in place a
revenue recognition policy consistent with GAAP. The Target Financial Statements fairly present in
all material respects the financial condition, operating results and cash flow of Target as of the
dates, and for the periods, indicated therein, subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the
absence of footnotes in the case of the unaudited Target Financial Statements.

               (b) Target maintains and will continue to maintain a system of internal accounting controls
sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed with management’s
general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements of Target and to maintain accountability for assets; (iii)
access to Target’s assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s authorization; and (iv)
the recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing assets at reasonable intervals and
appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Target is not party to or
otherwise involved in any “off-balance sheet arrangements” (as defined in Item 303 of
Regulation S-K under the Securities Act).

12

 

               (c) Section 3.4(c) of the Target Disclosure Schedule sets forth the Target’s pipeline of all
anticipated future orders for the sale of products and services by the Target as of the date of
this Agreement (the “Pipeline”). The Pipeline was prepared in good faith in accordance
with the past practices of the Target consistently applied and was based on assumptions that Target
believes to be reasonable as of the date of this Agreement. Acquiror and Merger Sub acknowledge,
however, that the Pipeline reflects estimates that are subject to economic, competitive and other
uncertainties beyond Target’s control and that there are no assurances that the Pipeline will be
realized.

          3.5 Capital Structure.

               (a) The authorized capital stock of Target consists of 52,256,803 shares of Target Common

non-assessable and are free of any liens or encumbrances other than any liens or encumbrances
created by or imposed upon the holders thereof, and are not subject to preemptive rights or rights
of first refusal created by statute, the Target Charter Documents or any agreement to which Target

under the Target 2000 Equity Incentive Plan (including the Sub-Plan for UK Employees) (the
“Target Option Plan”), of which 2,936,470 shares were subject to outstanding options and
118,802 shares were reserved for future option grants. The spreadsheet attached as Schedule
B hereto (the “Option Spreadsheet”), which sets forth with respect to options to
purchase shares of Target Common Stock outstanding as of the date hereof, (a) the name of the
holder of such option, (b) the date of grant of such option as set forth in the corresponding stock
option agreement, (c) whether such option is an incentive stock option or a non-qualified stock

Common Stock vested as of the date hereof under such option, (h) the number of shares of Target
Common Stock exercised under such option, (i) the number of shares of Target Common Stock issuable

residence of the holder of such option on the date of grant thereof and (l) the exercise or vesting
schedule of such option, including the terms of any acceleration of vesting potentially applicable

approved by the Target Board of Directors. Target has not issued any options to purchase Target
Common Stock with an exercise price of less than the fair market value of such Target Common Stock
on the date of grant to any employee, consultant or other provider of services to Target. Target
has not taken any other action that would cause a holder of such option, or the securities issued
or issuable upon exercise of such option, to be subject to taxation under Section 409A of the Code.
Target has not entered into any other arrangements that would constitute non-qualified deferred
compensation subject to taxation under Section 409A of the Code. All exercises of options to
purchase Target Common Stock have been paid in cash or check by the holder of such option, and no
such holder has received reimbursement, additional compensation or other monetary contribution from
the Target in connection therewith.

               (c) Except for the rights created pursuant to this Agreement, the Investor Rights Agreements,
the Put Right Agreement and the rights disclosed in the preceding paragraph (b), there are no other
options, warrants, calls, rights, commitments or agreements of any character to which Target is a
party or by which it is bound, obligating Target to issue, deliver, sell, repurchase or redeem or
cause to be issued, delivered, sold, repurchased or redeemed, any shares of Target Capital Stock or
obligating Target to grant, extend, accelerate the vesting of, change the price of, or otherwise
amend or enter into any such option, warrant, call, right, commitment or agreement. All shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock or upon exercise of the options
described in this Section 3.5, will be, when issued pursuant to the respective terms of such
Preferred Stock or options, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. There
are no other contracts, commitments or agreements relating to or restricting the voting, purchase

                    (vi) all other intangible assets, properties and rights (whether or not appropriate steps have
been taken to protect, under applicable law, such other intangible assets, properties or rights).

               (b) Target owns and has good and marketable title to, or possesses legally enforceable rights
to use, all Intellectual Property used and currently proposed to be used in the business of Target
as currently conducted and as proposed to be conducted by Target, except for such items as have yet
to be conceived or developed. The Intellectual Property owned by and licensed to Target
collectively constitutes all of the Intellectual Property necessary to enable Target to conduct its
business as such business is currently being conducted. No current or former officer, director,
employee, consultant or independent contractor has any right, claim or interest in or with respect
to any Target Intellectual Property (as defined in Section 3.10(c) below) other than statutory
rights of reversion under the United States Copyright Act.

               (c) With respect to each item of Intellectual Property incorporated into any product of Target
or otherwise used in the business of Target (except “off the shelf” or other software widely
available through regular commercial distribution channels at a cost not exceeding $10,000 on
standard terms and conditions, as modified for Target’s operations) (“Target Intellectual
Property”), Section 3.10 of the Target Disclosure Schedule lists:

17

 

                    (i) all Issued Patents and Patent Applications, all registered Trademarks, and pending
trademark registrations and all registered Copyrights, including the jurisdictions in which each
such Intellectual Property has been issued or registered or in which any such application for such
issuance and registration has been filed if such Intellectual Property is owned by or exclusively
licensed to Target; and

                    (ii) the following agreements relating to each of the products of Target (the “Target
Products”) or other Target Intellectual Property: all (A) agreements granting any right to
distribute or sublicense a Target Product on any exclusive basis; (B) any exclusive licenses of
Intellectual Property to or from Target; (C) agreements pursuant to which the amounts actually or
expected to be paid by or payable to Target are $25,000 or more; (D) joint development agreements;
(E) any agreement by which Target grants to a third party any ownership right to any Target

               (d) Section 3.10 of the Target Disclosure Schedule contains an accurate list as of the date of

Party Intellectual Property”).

               (e) There is no unauthorized use, disclosure, infringement or misappropriation of any Target
Intellectual Property, including any Third Party Intellectual Property, by any third party,
including any employee or former employee of Target. Target has not entered into any agreement to
indemnify any other person against any charge of infringement of any Intellectual Property, other
than the standard indemnification provisions contained in Target’s standard form integrator
agreement (the “Integrator Agreement”), standard form purchase agreement for end users (the
“Purchase Agreement”) and standard end user license agreements (“End User License
Agreements”), the forms of which have been delivered to Acquiror or its counsel. Any
deviations from such standard indemnification provisions are set forth in the Target Disclosure
Schedule. There are no royalties, fees or other payments payable by Target to any person or entity
by reason of the ownership, use, sale or disposition of Target Intellectual Property.

               (f) Target is not in breach of any license, sublicense or other agreement relating to the
Target Intellectual Property or Third Party Intellectual Property. Neither the execution, delivery
or performance of this Agreement or any ancillary agreement
contemplated hereby nor the consummation of the Merger or any of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement will contravene, conflict with or result in any limitation on the Acquiror’s
right to own or use any Target Intellectual Property, including any Third Party Intellectual
Property as currently used by Target.

18

 

               (g) All Issued Patents, registered Trademarks and registered Copyrights owned by Target are
valid and subsisting. All maintenance and annual fees due on or before the date hereof have been
fully paid and all fees paid during prosecution and after issuance of any Patent comprising or
relating to such item have been paid in the correct entity status amounts. Target is not
infringing, misappropriating, or making unlawful use of, or has not received any notice or other
communication (in writing or otherwise) of any actual, alleged, possible or potential infringement,
misappropriation or unlawful use of, any proprietary asset owned or used by any third party. There
is no proceeding pending or threatened, nor has any claim or demand been made that challenges the
legality, validity, enforceability or ownership of any item of Target Intellectual Property owned
or exclusively licensed to Target or alleges a claim of infringement of any Patents, Copyrights or
Trademarks, or violation of any trade secret or other proprietary right of any party by Target or
Target Products. Target has not brought a proceeding alleging infringement of Target Intellectual
Property or breach of any license or agreement involving Intellectual Property against any third
party.

               (h) All current and former officers and employees of, and all current and former consultants
and independent contractors to Target have executed and delivered to Target an agreement regarding
the protection of proprietary information and the assignment to Target of any Intellectual Property
arising from services performed for Target by such persons in one of the forms attached to the
Disclosure Schedule (the “Inventions Assignment”) (with no deviations therefrom and
containing no exceptions or exclusions from the scope of its coverage). No employee or independent
contractor of Target is in violation of any term of the Inventions Assignment or any patent
disclosure agreement or employment contract or any other contract or agreement relating to the
relationship of any such employee or independent contractor with Target. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, all prior inventions technology, or portions thereof, disclosed or excepted by any of
Target’s current and former officers, employees, consultants and independent contractors in any
Inventions Assignment agreement, including, but not limited to, the prior inventions contained in
U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2004/0030731 A1 (USSN 10/406,533) (hereinafter, the
“Prior Inventions Technology”), is not relevant to, and has not been incorporated into,
used in the development of, or used by, any Target Product or any Target Intellectual Property.

               (i) Target has taken all commercially reasonable and customary measures and precautions
necessary to protect and maintain the confidentiality of all Target Intellectual Property not
otherwise protected by patents or published patent applications (“Confidential
Information”) (except such Target Intellectual Property whose value would be unimpaired by
public disclosure) and otherwise to maintain and protect the full value of all Target Intellectual
Property. Without limiting the foregoing, Target has and enforces a policy requiring each third
party that Target discloses information to, to enter into non-disclosure and confidentiality
agreements restricting the use and disclosure of any Target Confidential Information.

               (j) No product liability claims have been communicated in writing to or, to Target’s
knowledge, threatened against Target.

               (k) A complete list of each of the Target Products and Target’s proprietary software
(“Target Software”), together with a brief description of each, is set forth in

19

 

Section 3.10 of the Target Disclosure Schedule. The Target Software (other than that currently under
development) and Target Products (other than that currently under development) conform in all
material respects with any specification, documentation, performance standard or representation
provided with respect thereto by Target except for minor software errors that have no immediate
impact on the functionality of the Target Software and that have been resolved or will be resolved
in accordance with the terms of Target’s support and maintenance agreements and except as such
failure could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Target.

               (l) Target is not subject to any proceeding or outstanding decree, order, judgment or
stipulation restricting in any manner the use, transfer or licensing of any Target Intellectual
Property by Target, or which may affect the validity, use or enforceability of such Target
Intellectual Property. Target is not subject to any agreement that restricts in any material
respect the use, transfer, delivery or licensing by Target of the Target Intellectual Property
owned by Target or Target Products.

               (m) No Public Software (as defined below) forms part of the any Target Product, services
provided by Target (“Target Service”) or Target Intellectual Property, and no Public
Software was or is used in connection with the development of any Target Product, Target Service or
Target Intellectual Property or is incorporated into, in whole or in part, or has been distributed
with, in whole or in part, any Target Product, Target Service or Target Intellectual Property owned
by Target. As used in this Section 3.10(m), “Public Software” means any software that contains, or
is derived in any manner (in whole or in part) from, any software that is distributed as free
software (as defined by the Free Software Foundation), open source software (e.g., Linux or
software distributed under any license approved by the Open Source Initiative as set forth in
www.opensource.org) or similar licensing or distribution models which requires the distribution of
source code to licensees, including software licensed or distributed under any of the following
licenses or distribution models, or licenses or distribution models similar to any of the
following: (i) GNU’s General Public License (GPL) or Lesser/Library GPL (LGPL); (ii) the Artistic
License (e.g., PERL); (iii) the Mozilla Public License; (iv) the Netscape Public License; (v) the
Sun Community Source License (SCSL); (vi) the Sun Industry Standards License (SISL); (vii) the BSD
License; or (viii) the Apache License.

               (n) Target has all rights necessary to be in compliance with the terms and conditions of the
OEM Agreement with Brocade Communications, Inc. (“Brocade”) dated May 2, 2005 (the “Brocade
Agreement”), including without limitation with respect to Third Party Intellectual Property, and is
otherwise and in all respects in full compliance with the Brocade Agreement.

          3.11 Interested Party Transactions. Except as set forth in Section 3.11 of the Target
Disclosure Schedule, (a) Target is not indebted to any director, officer, employee, stockholder or agent of Target
(except for amounts due as normal salaries and bonuses and in reimbursement of ordinary expenses),
and no such person is indebted to Target, and (b) there have been no transactions during the two
year period ending on the date hereof that would require disclosure if Target were subject to
disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”).

20

 

          3.12 Minute Books. The minute book of Target contains a materially complete and
accurate summary of all meetings of directors and stockholders or actions by written consent since
the time of incorporation of Target through the date of this Agreement, and reflects all
transactions referred to in such minutes accurately in all material respects.

          3.13 Complete Copies of Materials. Target has delivered or made available true and
complete copies of each document that (a) has been requested by Acquiror or its counsel prior to
the date hereof in connection with their due diligence review of Target, including without
limitation pursuant to the diligence request letter and list dated January 30, 2006, and (b)
exists.

          3.14 Material Contracts. All of Target’s Material Contracts (as defined in this
Section 3.14 below) are listed in Section 3.14 of the Target Disclosure Schedule (which may be
updated between the date of this Agreement and the Closing to include any Material Contracts
expressly permitted pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof or Section 5.1 of the Disclosure Schedule).
True and correct copies of each such written Material Contract, and a written summary setting forth
the terms and conditions of each oral Material Contract, have been provided to Acquiror. With
respect to each Material Contract: (a) the Material Contract constitutes the entire agreement
between Target, on the one hand, and the other party(ies) to such Material Contract, on the other
hand, with respect to the subject matter of the Material Contract and has not been modified,
amended or repudiated in any respect, or if modified or amended, such modification or amendment has
been noted in the Target Disclosure Schedule and provided to Acquiror; (b) the Material Contract is
legal, valid, binding and enforceable and in full force and effect with respect to Target, and, to
Target’s knowledge, is legal, valid, binding, enforceable and in full force and effect with respect
to each other party thereto, in either case subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency,
moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and
except as the availability of equitable remedies may be limited by general principles of equity;
(c) the Material Contract will continue to be legal, valid, binding and enforceable and in full
force and effect immediately following the Effective Time in accordance with its terms as in effect
prior to the Effective Time, subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and except as the
availability of equitable remedies may be limited by general principles of equity; (d) neither
Target nor, to Target’s knowledge, any other party is in breach or default, and no event has
occurred that with notice or lapse of time would constitute a breach or default by Target or, to
Target’s knowledge, by any such other party, or permit termination, modification or acceleration,
under such Material Contract; and (e) no party to the Material Contract has communicated to Target
any intention to cancel, withdraw, modify or amend such contract, agreement or arrangement whether
by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise. “Material
Contract” means any written or oral
contract, agreement or commitment to which Target is a party or by which any of Target’s
assets and properties is bound (a) under which there have been or are expected to be receipts to
the Target in excess of $25,000 or expenditures by the Target in excess of $25,000; (b) required to
be listed pursuant to Section 3.10(c)(ii) or Section 3.10(d); (c) requiring Target to indemnify any
person or entity other than pursuant to the unmodified, standard indemnification provision
contained in Target’s standard form Integrator Agreement, standard form Purchase Agreement and
standard form End User License Agreements; (d) including any provision or covenant prohibiting or
limiting the ability to Target to engage in any business activity or compete with any person,
including

21

 

without limitation any provision or covenant restricting the development, manufacture,
assembly, marketing, distribution, license or sale of Target’s products or services, (e) including
a warranty with respect to Target’s products or services other than pursuant to the unmodified,
standard product and services warranties contained in the Integrator Agreement, Purchase Agreement
and End User License Agreements, (f) granting any exclusive rights to any party (other than
exclusive licenses listed pursuant to Section 3.10(c)(ii)); (g) that cannot be terminated within
one hundred eighty (180) days after giving notice of termination without resulting in any cost or
penalty to Target (as explicitly stated in the Agreement), (h) required to be listed pursuant to
Section 3.18, (i) required to be listed pursuant to Section 3.11; (j) evidencing indebtedness for
borrowed or loaned money, including guarantees of such indebtedness; or (k) that could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Target if breached by Target in such a manner as
would (I) permit any other party to cancel or terminate the same (with or without notice of passage
of time); (II) provide a basis for any other party to claim money damages (either individually or
in the aggregate with all other such claims under that contract) from Target; or (III) give rise to
a right of acceleration of any material obligation or loss of any material benefit under such
Material Contract.

          3.15 Inventory. The inventories shown on the Target Balance Sheet or thereafter
acquired by Target, were acquired and maintained in the ordinary course of business, are of good
and merchantable quality, and consist of items of a quantity and quality usable or salable in the
ordinary course of business. Since the Target Balance Sheet Date, Target has continued to
replenish inventories in a normal and customary manner consistent with past practices. Section
3.15 of the Target Disclosure Schedule lists the suppliers used by the Target in the manufacture of
its products. Except as otherwise noted in Section 3.15 of the Target Disclosure Schedule, none of
such suppliers is a sole source. Target has not received written notice (nor does Target have any
other basis upon which it expects that there is a reasonable possibility) that it will experience
in the foreseeable future any difficulty in obtaining, in the desired quantity and quality and at a
reasonable price and upon reasonable terms and conditions, the raw materials, supplies or component
products required for the manufacture, assembly or production of its products. The values at which
inventories are carried reflect the inventory valuation policy of Target, which is consistent with
its past practice and in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. Target is not under
any liability or obligation with respect to the return of any item of inventory in the possession
of wholesalers, retailers or other customers. Since the Target Balance Sheet Date, adequate
provision has been made on the books of Target in the ordinary course of business consistent with
past practices to provide for all slow-moving, obsolete or unusable inventories to their estimated
useful or scrap values, and such inventory reserves are adequate to provide for such slow-moving,
obsolete or unusable inventory and inventory shrinkage.

          3.16 Accounts Receivable. Subject to any reserves set forth therein, the accounts
receivable shown on the Target Financial Statements are valid and genuine, have arisen solely out
of bona fide sales and deliveries of goods, performance of services, and other business
transactions in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices in each case with
persons other than affiliates, are not subject to any prior assignment, lien or security interest,
and are not subject to valid defenses, set-offs or counter claims. Except to the extent paid prior
to the Closing Date or made uncollectible as a result of bad faith actions of Acquiror or the
Surviving Corporation after the Closing Date, the accounts receivable on the Target Balance Sheet
are

22

 

collectible in accordance with their terms at their recorded amounts, subject only to the
reserve for doubtful accounts on the Target Financial Statements.

          3.17 Customers and Suppliers. As of the date hereof, no customer that individually
accounted for more than 5% of Target’s gross revenues during the 12-month period ended on the
Target Balance Sheet Date and no supplier of Target that individually accounted for more than 5% of
Target’s purchases during the 12-month period ended on the Target Balance Sheet Date has canceled
or otherwise terminated, or made any written threat to Target to cancel or otherwise terminate its
relationship with Target or has at any time on or after the Target Balance Sheet Date, decreased
materially its services or supplies to Target in the case of any such supplier, or its usage of the
services or products of Target in the case of such customer, and to Target’s knowledge no such
supplier or customer has indicated either orally or in writing that it intends to cancel or
otherwise terminate its relationship with Target or to decrease materially its services or supplies
to Target or its usage of the services or products of Target, as the case may be, other than
downward fluctuations of not more than ten percent (10%) in the volume of individual customer
orders on a fiscal quarterly basis over the prior fiscal quarter in the ordinary course of
business. Target has not knowingly breached, so as to provide a benefit to Target that was not
intended by the parties, any agreement with, or engaged in any fraudulent conduct with respect to,
any customer or supplier of Target.

          3.18 Employees and Consultants.

               (a) Section 3.18(a) of the Target Disclosure Schedule lists all contracts, agreements or
commitments to which Target is a party (whether written or oral) providing for a commitment of
employment or consulting services (and provides a description of any such oral agreements) which
either (i) contain severance, bonus or other provisions triggered by the Closing or (ii) contain
obligations of any kind continuing beyond the Closing Date, and true, correct and complete copies
of all such written agreements have been delivered to Acquiror. In addition, Section 3.18 of the
Target Disclosure Schedule contains a list of the names of all employees (including without
limitation part-time employees and temporary employees), leased employees, independent contractors
and consultants of Target, together with their respective salaries or wages, other compensation
(including, without limitation, bonuses, perks and rights to severance payments upon termination of
service to Target), dates of employment and positions. None of such employees, contractors or
consultants has indicated to any executive officer or director of Target a present intention to
resign or retire, and Target does not have a present intention to terminate the employment or
services of any of them. No employee or independent contractor or consultant of Target is in
violation of any term of any employment or consulting
contract (whether written or oral), patent disclosure agreement or any other contract or
agreement relating to the relationship of any such person with Target or any other party (including
prior employers) because of the nature of the business now conducted or now proposed to be
conducted by Target. Target is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement or other labor
union contract. There is no strike, labor dispute or union organization activities pending or, to
Target’s knowledge, threatened, involving Target, or its employees. With respect to all of their
employees in the United States, Target has obtained documentation within the initial three days of
employment of each employee’s identity and eligibility to work in the United States, and no such
employees will lose their eligibility to work in the United States for the period of one year
following the Closing Date. Section 3.18(a) of the Target Disclosure

23

 

Schedule identifies each of
Target’s employees in the United States whose eligibility to work in the United States exists
pursuant to an issued work permit or visa, and describes the current status of each such
individual’s immigration status. Target has taken, and will have taken at all times prior to the
Closing Date, all steps to perfect each such employee’s immigration status.

               (b) Each of the employees of the Target identified in Section 3.18(b) of the Target Disclosure
Schedule (the “Key Employees”) has executed and delivered to Acquiror (i) an offer letter
for employment with Acquiror following the Closing, and (ii) a Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation
Agreement.

          3.19 Title to Property. Target has good and marketable title to all of its
properties, interests in properties and assets, real and personal, reflected in the Target Balance
Sheet or acquired after the Target Balance Sheet Date (except properties, interests in properties
and assets sold or otherwise disposed of since the Target Balance Sheet Date in the ordinary course
of business), or with respect to leased properties and assets, valid leasehold interests therein,
free and clear of all mortgages, liens, pledges, charges or encumbrances of any kind or character,
except (a) any liens for current taxes not yet due and payable; (b) such imperfections of title,
liens and easements as do not and will not materially detract from or interfere with the use of the
properties subject thereto or affected thereby, or otherwise materially impair business operations
involving such properties; (c) liens securing debt that is reflected on the Target Balance Sheet;
and (d) such other mortgages, liens, pledges, charges or encumbrances as could not, individually or
in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Target. The plants,
property and equipment of Target that are used in the operations of Target’s business are in all
material respects in good operating condition and repair, subject to normal wear and tear. All
properties used in the operations of Target are reflected in the Target Balance Sheet to the extent
required by GAAP. All leases to which Target is a party are in full force and effect and are
valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting
or relating to creditors’ rights generally; and general principles of equity, regardless of whether
asserted in a proceeding in equity or at law. True and correct copies of all such leases have been
provided to Acquiror. Target owns no real property.

          3.20 Environmental Matters.

               (a) The following terms shall be defined as follows:

                    (i) “Environmental Laws” shall mean any applicable foreign, federal, state or local

policies, permits, licenses, certificates, approvals, judgments, decrees, orders, directives, or
requirements that pertain to the protection of the environment, protection of public health and
safety, or protection of worker health and safety, or that pertain to the handling, use,
manufacturing, processing, storage, treatment, transportation, discharge, release, emission,

24

 

                    (ii) “Hazardous Materials” shall mean any material, chemical, compound, substance,
mixture or by-product that is identified, defined, designated, listed, restricted or otherwise
regulated under Environmental Laws as a “hazardous constituent,” “hazardous substance,” “hazardous
material,” “acutely hazardous material,” “extremely hazardous material,” “hazardous waste,”
“hazardous waste constituent,” “acutely hazardous waste,” “extremely hazardous waste,” “infectious

or occupied by Target are defined herein as “Target’s Current Facilities”), and no
discharge, emission, release, leak or spill of Hazardous Materials has occurred at any of Target’s
Facilities during Target’s use, lease or occupancy thereof (or, to Target’s knowledge, at any time
prior to Target’s use, lease or occupancy thereof) that could reasonably be expected to give rise
to liability of Target under Environmental Laws. To Target’s knowledge, there are no Hazardous
Materials (including without limitation asbestos) present in the surface waters, structures,
groundwaters or soils of or beneath any of Target’s Current Facilities. To Target’s knowledge,
there neither are nor have been any aboveground or underground storage tanks for Hazardous
Materials at Target’s Current Facilities. To Target’s knowledge, no Target employee or other
person has claimed that Target is liable for alleged injury or illness resulting from an alleged
exposure to a Hazardous Material. No civil, criminal or administrative action, proceeding or
investigation is pending against Target, or, to Target’s knowledge, threatened against Target,
with respect to Hazardous Materials or Environmental Laws; and Target is not aware of any
facts or circumstances that could form the basis for assertion of a claim against Target or that
could reasonably be expected to form the basis for liability of Target, regarding Hazardous
Materials or regarding actual or potential noncompliance with Environmental Laws.

          3.21 Taxes.

               (a) As used in this Agreement, the terms “Tax” and, collectively, “Taxes” mean

or similar provisions under any foreign laws);

               (d) There is no Tax deficiency outstanding or assessed or, to Target’s knowledge, proposed

for Tax liabilities on the Target’s financial statements is in accordance with past custom and
practice;

               (a) Section 3.22 of the Target Disclosure Schedule contains a complete and accurate list of
each plan, program, policy, practice, contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for
employment, compensation, retirement, deferred compensation, loans,

27

 

severance, separation,
relocation, repatriation, expatriation, visas, work permits, termination pay, performance awards,
bonus, incentive, stock option, stock purchase, stock bonus, phantom stock, stock appreciation
right, supplemental retirement, fringe benefits, cafeteria benefits or other benefits, whether
written or unwritten, including without limitation each “employee benefit plan” within the meaning
of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
(“ERISA”), which is or has been sponsored, maintained, contributed to, or required to be
contributed to by Target and, with respect to any such plans which are subject to Code Section
401(a), any trade or business (whether or not incorporated) that is or at any relevant time was
treated as a single employer with Target within the meaning of Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of
the Code, (an “ERISA Affiliate”) for the benefit of any person who performs or who has
performed services for Target or with respect to which Target or any ERISA Affiliate has or may
have any liability (including without limitation contingent liability) or obligation (collectively,
the “Target Employee Plans”). Section 3.22 of the Target Disclosure Schedule separately
lists each Target Employee Plan that has been adopted or maintained by Target, whether formally or
informally, for the benefit of employees outside the United States (collectively, the “Target
International Employee Plans”).

               (b) Documents. Target has furnished to Acquiror true and complete copies of documents
embodying each of the Target Employee Plans and related plan documents, including without
limitation trust documents, group annuity contracts, plan amendments, insurance policies or
contracts, participant agreements, employee booklets, administrative service agreements, summary
plan descriptions, compliance and nondiscrimination tests for the last three plan years, standard
COBRA forms and related notices, registration statements and prospectuses and, to the extent still
in its possession, any material employee communications relating thereto. With respect to each
Target Employee Plan that is subject to ERISA reporting requirements, Target has provided copies of
the Form 5500 reports filed for the last three plan years. Target has furnished Acquiror with the
most recent Internal Revenue Service determination or opinion letter issued with respect to each
such Target Employee Plan, and to Target’s knowledge nothing has occurred since the issuance of
each such letter that could reasonably be expected to cause the loss of the tax-qualified status of
any Target Employee Plan subject to Code Section 401(a).

               (c) Compliance. (i) Each Target Employee Plan has been administered in accordance
with its terms and in compliance with the requirements prescribed by any and all statutes, rules
and regulations (including ERISA and the Code), except as could not reasonably be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Target; and Target and each ERISA
Affiliate have performed all material obligations required to be performed by them under, are not
in material respect in default under or violation of and have no knowledge of any material default
or violation by any other party to, any of the Target Employee Plans; (ii) any Target Employee Plan
intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has either obtained from the Internal
Revenue Service a favorable determination or opinion letter as to its qualified status under the
Code, including all currently effective amendments to the Code, or has time remaining to apply
under applicable Treasury Regulations or Internal Revenue Service pronouncements for a
determination or opinion letter and to make any amendments necessary to obtain a favorable
determination or opinion letter; (iii) none of the Target Employee Plans promises or provides
retiree medical or other retiree welfare benefits to any person; (iv) there has been no “prohibited
transaction,” as such term is defined in

28

 

Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, with
respect to any Target Employee Plan, unless an exemption is available for such transaction under
applicable law; (v) none of Target or any ERISA Affiliate is subject to any liability or penalty
under Sections 4976 through 4980 of the Code or Title I of ERISA with respect to any Target
Employee Plan; (vi) all contributions required to be made by Target or any ERISA Affiliate to any
Target Employee Plan have been paid or accrued; (vii) with respect to each Target Employee Plan, no
“reportable event” within the meaning of Section 4043 of ERISA (excluding any such event for which
the thirty (30) day notice requirement has been waived under the regulations to Section 4043 of
ERISA) nor any event described in Section 4062, 4063 or 4041 or ERISA has occurred; (viii) each
Target Employee Plan subject to ERISA has prepared in good faith and timely filed all requisite
governmental reports, which were true and correct as of the date filed, and has properly and timely
filed and distributed or posted all notices and reports to employees required to be filed,
distributed or posted with respect to each such Target Employee Plan; (ix) no suit, administrative
proceeding, action or other litigation has been brought, or to the knowledge of Target is
threatened, against or with respect to any such Target Employee Plan, including any audit or
inquiry by the IRS or United States Department of Labor; and (x) there has been no amendment to,
written interpretation or announcement by Target or any ERISA Affiliate that would materially
increase the expense of maintaining any Target Employee Plan above the level of expense incurred
with respect to that Plan for the most recent fiscal year included in the Target Financial
Statements.

               (d) No Title IV or Multiemployer Plan. Neither Target nor any ERISA Affiliate has
ever maintained, established, sponsored, participated in, contributed to, or is obligated to
contribute to, or otherwise incurred any obligation or liability (including without limitation any
contingent liability) under any “multiemployer plan” (as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA) or to
any “pension plan” (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA) subject to Title IV of ERISA or Section
412 of the Code. None of Target or any ERISA Affiliate has any actual or potential withdrawal
liability (including without limitation any contingent liability) for any complete or partial
withdrawal (as defined in Sections 4203 and 4205 of ERISA) from any multiemployer plan.

               (e) COBRA, FMLA, HIPAA, Cancer Rights. With respect to each Target Employee Plan,
Target has complied with (i) the applicable health care continuation and notice provisions of the
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”) and the regulations
thereunder or any state law governing health care coverage extension or continuation; (ii) the
applicable requirements of the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 and the regulations thereunder;
(iii) the applicable requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of
1996 (“HIPAA”); and (iv) the applicable requirements of the Cancer Rights Act of 1998,
except to the extent that such failure to comply could not reasonably be expected, individually or
in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect on Target. Target has no material unsatisfied
obligations to any employees, former employees or qualified beneficiaries pursuant to COBRA, HIPAA
or any state law governing health care coverage extension or continuation.

               (f) Effect of Transaction. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement will not (i) entitle any current or former employee or other service provider of Target
or any ERISA Affiliate to severance benefits or any other payment

29

 

(including without limitation
unemployment compensation, golden parachute, bonus or benefits under any Target Employee Plan),
except as expressly provided in this Agreement; or (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting
of any such benefits or increase the amount of compensation due any such employee or service
provider. No benefit payable or that may become payable by Target pursuant to any Target Employee
Plan or as a result of or arising under this Agreement shall constitute an “excess parachute
payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code) subject to the imposition of an excise Tax
under Section 4999 of the Code or the deduction for which would be disallowed by reason of Section
280G of the Code. Each Target Employee Plan can be amended, terminated or otherwise discontinued
after the Effective Time in accordance with its terms, without material liability to Acquirer or
Target other than ordinary administration expenses typically incurred in a termination event.

               (g) International Employee Plans. Each of the Target International Employee Plans has
been established, maintained and administered in compliance in all material respects with its terms
and conditions and with the requirements prescribed by any and all statutory or regulatory laws
applicable to such International Target Employee Plan. No Target International Employee Plan has
unfunded liabilities that as of the Effective Time will not be offset by insurance or fully
accrued. Except as required by law, no condition exists that would prevent Target or Acquiror from
terminating or amending any International Target Employee Plan at any time for any reason.

          3.23 Employee Matters. Target is in compliance in all material respects with all
currently applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting terms and
conditions of employment, including without limitation applicant and employee background checking,
immigration laws, discrimination laws, verification of employment eligibility, employee leave laws,
classification of workers as employees and independent contractors as well as classification of
employees as exempt and non-exempt, wage and hour laws, and occupational safety and health laws.
There are no proceedings pending or, to Target’s knowledge, reasonably expected or threatened,
between Target, on the one hand, and any or all of its current or former employees, on the other
hand, including without limitation any claims for actual or alleged harassment or discrimination
based on race, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or similar
tortious conduct, breach of contract, wrongful termination, defamation, intentional or negligent
infliction of emotional distress, interference with contract or interference with actual or
prospective economic disadvantage. There are no claims pending, or, to Target’s knowledge,
reasonably expected or threatened, against Target under any workers’ compensation or long-term
disability plan or policy. Target has provided all employees with all wages (including payment of
overtime), benefits, relocation benefits, stock options, bonuses and incentives, and all other
compensation that became due and payable through the date of this Agreement.

          3.24 Insurance. Target has delivered to Acquiror copies of each insurance policy
(including policies providing property, casualty, liability, and workers’ compensation coverage and
bond and surety arrangements) with respect to which Target is a party, a named insured, or
otherwise the beneficiary of coverage as of the date of this Agreement. Such policies are (a)
sufficient to meet Target’s existing legal and contractual obligations, and (b) in amounts
customarily carried by persons conducting businesses or owning assets similar to those of Target.
Each of the policies is legal, valid, binding, enforceable and in full force and effect in all

30

 

respects. There is no material claim pending under any of such policies or bonds as to which
coverage has been questioned, denied or disputed by the underwriters of such policies or bonds, and
there has been no notice of pending or actual cancellation or nonrenewal of any of such policies.
All premiums due and payable under all such policies and bonds have been paid and Target is
otherwise in compliance with the terms of such policies and bonds, and no event has occurred which,
with notice or the lapse of time, would permit the termination or modification of, or acceleration
of payments due under, the policies. Target has no knowledge of any threatened termination of, or
material premium increase with respect to, any of such policies. Section 3.24 of the Target
Disclosure Schedule describes all such policies and any self-insurance arrangements presently
maintained by, or for the benefit of, Target as of the date of this Agreement.

          3.25 Compliance With Laws. Target has complied in all material respects with, is not
in material violation of and has not received any notices of violation with respect to, any federal
state, local or foreign statute, law or regulation with respect to the conduct of its business, or
the ownership or operation of its business.

          3.26 Brokers’ and Finders’ Fee. Except for UBS Investment Bank, as to which neither
Acquiror nor Merger Sub shall have any liability, no broker, finder or investment banker engaged by
or acting on behalf of Target or its stockholders is entitled to brokerage or finders’ fees or
agents’ commissions or investment bankers’ fees or any similar charges in connection with the
Merger, this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Target has provided a complete and
correct copy of Target’s agreement with UBS Investment Bank to Acquiror or its counsel.

          3.27 Privacy Policies. Target and its employees, have (i) complied in all material

Law (defined below), including but not limited to, all laws and regulations related to the import
and export of commodities, software, and technology from and into the United States, and the
payment of required duties and tariffs in connection with same. Target has no basis to expect, nor
has Target or any other person for whose conduct they are or may reasonably be held to be
responsible received, any actual or threatened order, notice, or other communication from any
governmental body of any actual or potential violation or failure to comply with any International
Trade Law. “International Trade Law” shall mean U.S. statutes, laws and regulations applicable to
international transactions, including, but not limited to, the Export Administration Act, the
Export Administration Regulations, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the Arms Export Control Act,
the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, the

material respects with the terms and conditions of each Government Contract and Bid (defined below)
to which it is a party or subject, and each such Government Contract and Bid has been issued to or
submitted by Target in Target’s name. Target has complied with all requirements of all laws and
regulations pertaining to each Government Contract or Bid, and has not received notice from a
Governmental Agency or any other entity or person that Target has breached or violated any law,
certification, representation, clause, provision, or requirement pertaining to any Government
Contract or Bid. All representations and certifications made by Target with respect to any
Government Contract or Bid were current, complete, and accurate as of their effective date and
Target has complied with all such representations and certifications. There exists no irregularity,
misstatement, omission, or noncompliance arising under or relating to any Government Contract or
Bid or any law or regulation applicable thereto that has led or could lead to an internal
investigation (other than inquiries in the ordinary course of business), a voluntary disclosure to
any Governmental Agency arising under or relating to a Government Contract or Bid or any law or
regulation applicable thereto, or any other damage, penalty assessment, recoupment of payment or
disallowance of cost. As used in this Section 3.29, “Government Contract” means any
agreement entered into by Target with any Governmental Agency or with any prime contractor or
upper-tier subcontractor relating to an agreement where any Governmental Agency is a party thereto.
“Bid” means any outstanding quotation, bid, proposal or grant application by Target that,
if accepted or awarded, would lead to a Government Contract.”

unvested, will be assumed by Acquiror. Each option assumed by Acquiror under this Agreement shall
continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the Target Option
Plan and any other document governing such option immediately prior to the Effective Time, except
that: (a) such Target Option will be exercisable for that number of whole shares of the common
stock of Acquiror (the “Acquiror Common Stock”) equal to the product of (i) the number of
shares of Target Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such option immediately prior to
the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) an amount equal to (A) the Secondary Per Share Merger
Consideration, divided by (B) the average of the closing prices of

40

 

Acquiror Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market during the 10 trading days
ending one day prior to the Effective Time (the “Exchange Ratio”) and rounded down to the
nearest whole number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock; (b) the per share exercise price for the
shares of Acquiror Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Target Option will be equal to the
quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Target Common Stock at which such
Target Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio,
rounded up to the nearest whole tenth of a cent; and (c) any restriction on the exercisability of
such Target Option will continue in full force and effect, and the term, exercisability, vesting
schedule and other provisions of such Target Option will remain unchanged. Consistent with the

Target Option Plan, the Merger will not terminate any of the outstanding Target Options or
accelerate the exercisability or vesting of such Target Options or the shares of Acquiror Common
Stock underlying Target Options upon the Acquiror’s assumption thereof in the Merger. It is the
intention of the parties that Target Options so assumed by Acquiror will remain incentive stock
options as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the extent such Target Options qualified as
incentive stock options prior to the Effective Time.

          6.8 Form S-8. Acquiror agrees to file, within ten (10) business days after the

appropriate to terminate, effective no later than the date immediately prior to the Closing, any
Target Employee Plan that contains a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section
401(k) of the Code (a “401(k) Plan”). Acquiror shall have received from Target evidence
that that Target’s board of directors has adopted resolutions to terminate such plans effective as
of the date immediately preceding the Closing (the form and substance of which resolutions shall be
subject to the review and approval of the Acquiror). Immediately prior to such termination, Target
will make all necessary payments to fund the contributions: (i) necessary or required to maintain
the tax-qualified status of the 401(k) Plan; (ii) for elective deferrals made pursuant to the
401(k) Plan for the period prior to termination; and (iii) for employer matching contributions (if
any) for the period prior to termination.

          6.11 Expenses. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, whether or not the
Merger is consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Expenses”) shall be paid by the party
incurring such expense; provided that Acquiror shall pay all HSR filing fees.

          6.12 Employee Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, Acquiror shall make offers of
employment with Acquiror after the Closing Date to such employees of Target as it selects. Each

the same or comparable positions, and with at least the same base pay and comparable total
compensation and benefits (taking into account base pay, bonus, and other incentive compensation,
but excluding any rights to severance payments upon termination of service) as was in effect for
such employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) is made pursuant to an offer letter,
the form of which has been provided to Target prior to the date hereof (a “Qualified Offer
Letter”) shall be deemed a “Qualified Offer” hereunder.

          6.13 Return of Certain Receivables. To the extent the Target stockholders indemnify
any Acquiror Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 9.2(b)(i) because any account receivable is not
collectible as represented and warranted by Target in Section 3.16, Acquiror shall continue to use
reasonable commercial efforts to collect such receivable and in the event of any subsequent
collection of same within twelve months of the Closing Date, shall pay such amount to the Escrow
Agent for contribution to the Escrow Fund.

          8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided
in Section 8.1, there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of Acquiror, Target, Merger
Sub or their respective officers, directors, or stockholders, except to the extent that such
termination results from the willful breach by a party of any of its representations, warranties or
covenants set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that the provisions of
Sections 6.4, 6.5, 6.11 and 10 shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of
this Agreement.

          8.3 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto, by action taken
or authorized by their respective Boards of Directors. This Agreement may not be amended except by
an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

          8.4 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto,
by action taken or authorized by their respective Boards of Directors, may, to the extent legally
allowed: (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the
other parties hereto; (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained
herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto; and (iii) waive compliance with any of the
agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such
extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of
such party.

     9. Escrow and Indemnification.

          9.1 Escrow Fund.

               (a) On the Closing Date, Acquiror shall deposit with U.S. Bank, National Association (or other
institution selected by Acquiror with the reasonable consent of Target) as escrow agent (the
“Escrow Agent”), the Escrow Amount to constitute the Escrow Fund and to be governed by the
terms set forth herein and in the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B. The
Escrow Fund shall be available to compensate Acquiror pursuant to the indemnification obligations
of the stockholders of Target.

          9.2 Indemnification.

               (a) Survival of Warranties. All representations and warranties made by Target,
herein, or in any certificate, schedule or exhibit delivered pursuant hereto, shall survive the
Closing and continue in full force and effect until the later of (i) the date which is 90 days
following the completion of the independent audit of Acquiror’s financial statements for the year
ending December 31, 2006, or (ii) the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Termination
Date”).

46

 

               (b) From and after the Effective Time and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section
9, the stockholders of Target will severally (based on each such stockholder’s Applicable Escrow
Ownership Percentage) and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless Acquiror and the Surviving
Corporation and their respective officers, directors, agents, attorneys and employees, and each
person, if any, who controls or may control Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation within the
meaning of the Securities Act (individually an “Acquiror Indemnified Person” and
collectively the “Acquiror Indemnified Persons”) from and against the following
(collectively, “Damages”): (i) any and all losses, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses,
including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees, arising (A) out of the failure of any
representation or warranty of Target in this Agreement, the Target Disclosure Schedule or any
exhibit or schedule to this Agreement to be true and correct as of the Closing Date or any breach
of or default in connection with any of the covenants and agreements given or made by Target in
this Agreement, the Target Disclosure Schedule or any exhibit or schedule to this Agreement or (B)
the matters set forth in Section 9.2(b) of the Target Disclosure Schedule; and (ii) any payments
required to be made to Dissenting Stockholders in excess of amounts payable per this Agreement, as
determined pursuant to Section 2.6(f). From and after the Effective Time, the sole recourse of the
Acquiror Indemnified Persons shall be against the Escrow Fund and claims against the Escrow Fund
shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Acquiror Indemnified Persons for any Damages or other
claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this
Agreement shall limit the liability in amount or otherwise of (i) Target to the extent provided for
in Section 8.2; or (ii) any Target stockholder in connection with any breach by such stockholder of
any representation or covenant in any written consent of stockholders delivered to the Target in
connection with the Merger; or (iii) Target or Target stockholders with respect to fraud, or
criminal activity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or intentional
breach of any covenant contained in this Agreement. Subject to the provisions in the preceding
sentence, the maximum amount payable by the stockholders of Target in respect of all claims for
indemnification under this Agreement will not exceed the Escrow Amount.

               (c) Threshold for Claims. No claim for Damages shall be made under Section 9.2(b)(i)
(“Breach Damages”) unless the aggregate of Breach Damages for which claims are made
hereunder by the Acquiror Indemnified Persons and for which indemnity would otherwise be payable
exceeds $250,000, in which case the Acquiror Indemnified Person shall be entitled to seek
compensation for all Breach Damages without regard to the limitation set forth in this Section
9.2(c) (the “Limitation”); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any
claims made for Damages resulting from the matters set forth in Section 9.2(b) of the Target
Disclosure Schedule shall not be subject to the Limitation.

          9.3 Escrow Period; Release From Escrow.

               (a) The period of time during which the Escrow Amount shall remain in the Escrow Fund shall
terminate upon the Release Date; provided, however, that a portion of the Escrow
Fund that equals the total amount of Damages claimed in any unsatisfied claims specified in any
Officer’s Certificate (as defined in Section 9.4 below) delivered to the Escrow Agent prior to the
Release Date with respect to facts and circumstances existing on or prior to the Termination Date,
shall remain in the Escrow Fund until such claims have been resolved.

47

 

               (b) Within fifteen (15) business days after the Termination Date (the “Release Date”),
the Escrow Agent shall release from escrow to the stockholders of Target their pro rata portion of
the Escrow Fund, less with respect to each such stockholder an amount equal to the sum of (i) such
stockholder’s pro rata portion of any liability described in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to
Acquiror in accordance with Section 9.4 and (ii) such stockholder’s pro rata portion of any
liability described in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Escrow Agent in accordance with
Section 9.3(a) with respect to any pending but unresolved indemnification claims of Acquiror
Indemnified Person. Any amount of the Escrow Fund held as a result of clause (ii) shall be
released to the stockholders of Target or released to Acquiror (as appropriate) promptly upon
resolution of each specific indemnification claim involved. A Target stockholder’s pro rata
portion of any amount released from the Escrow Fund shall be in proportion to their Applicable
Escrow Ownership Percentage. Any fractional amounts to be released and delivered from the Escrow
Fund to the stockholders of Target shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent.

               (c) None of the Escrow Fund or any beneficial interest therein may be pledged, sold, assigned
or transferred, including by operation of law, by any stockholder of Target or be taken or reached
by any legal or equitable process in satisfaction of any debt or other liability of any such
stockholder, prior to the delivery to such stockholder of such stockholder’s pro rata portion of
the Escrow Fund by the Escrow Agent as provided herein.

               (d) The Escrow Agent is hereby granted the power to effect any transfer of the Escrow Fund
contemplated by this Agreement.

          9.4 Claims Upon Escrow Fund. Upon receipt by the Escrow Agent on or before the
Release Date of a certificate signed by any officer of Acquiror (an “Officer’s
Certificate”) stating that Damages exist for which indemnification may be sought from the
stockholders of Target under Section 9.2, and specifying in reasonable detail the individual items
of such Damages included in the amount so stated, the date each such item was paid, or properly
accrued or arose, and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant, claim,
payment or amount to which such item is related, the Escrow Agent shall, subject to the provisions
of this Section 9, deliver to Acquiror out of the Escrow Fund, as promptly as practicable, an
amount equal to such Damages.

          9.5 Objections to Claims.

               (a) At the time of delivery of any Officer’s Certificate to the Escrow Agent, the Acquiror
shall also deliver a duplicate copy of such Officer’s Certificate to the Stockholders’ Agent. For
a period of thirty (30) days after delivery of such Officer’s Certificate, the Escrow Agent shall
make no payment of amounts from the Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 9.4 hereof unless the Escrow
Agent shall have received written authorization from the Stockholders’ Agent to make such payment.
After the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, the Escrow Agent shall make payment of the
amounts in the Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 9.4 hereof, provided that no such payment may
be made if the Stockholders’ Agent shall object in a written statement to the claim made in the
Officer’s Certificate, and such statement shall have been delivered to the Escrow Agent and to
Acquiror prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period.

48

 

               (b) In case the Stockholders’ Agent shall so object in writing to any claim or claims by
Acquiror made in any Officer’s Certificate, Acquiror shall have thirty (30) days to respond in a
written statement to the objection of the Stockholders’ Agent. If after such thirty (30) day
period there remains a dispute as to any claims, the Stockholders’ Agent and Acquiror shall attempt
in good faith for thirty (30) days to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect
to each of such claims. If the Stockholders’ Agent and Acquiror should so agree, a memorandum
setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and shall be furnished to
the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and shall
distribute the amounts in the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof

               (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.5 or in Section 9.6, the Escrow
Agent shall make payment of the amounts in the Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 9.4 hereof if
the Damages described in the Officer’s Certificate are of the nature described in Section
9.2(b)(ii) or (iii).

          9.6 Resolution of Conflicts and Arbitration.

               (a) If no agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation between the parties pursuant
to Section 9.5, either Acquiror or the Stockholders’ Agent may, by written notice to the other,
demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Damages is at issue in pending litigation
with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is
ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration; and in either such event the matter shall be
settled by arbitration conducted by one arbitrator. Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent shall
agree on the arbitrator, provided that if Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent cannot agree on such
arbitrator, either Acquiror or Stockholders’ Agent can request that Judicial Arbitration and
Mediation Services (“JAMS”) select the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall set a limited time
period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing
the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator, to discover relevant
information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator
shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose
sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a court of competent law or
equity, should the arbitrator determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification
or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of
the arbitrator shall be written, shall be in accordance with applicable law and with this
Agreement, and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions of law which shall
set forth the basis for the decision of the arbitrator. The decision of the arbitrator as to the
validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon
the parties to this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything in Section 9 hereof, the Escrow Agent
and the parties shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and the Escrow Agent
shall be entitled to make or withhold payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith.

               (b) Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction. Any such arbitration shall be held in Santa Clara or San Mateo County, California
under the commercial rules then in effect of JAMS. The non-prevailing party to an arbitration
shall pay its own expenses, the fees of the arbitrator, any

49

 

administrative fee of JAMS, and the expenses, including attorneys’ fees and costs, reasonably
incurred by the other party to the arbitration. For purposes of this Section 9.6(b), in any
arbitration hereunder in which any claim or the amount thereof stated in the Officer’s Certificate
is at issue, the party seeking indemnification shall be deemed to be the non-prevailing party
unless the arbitrators award the party seeking indemnification more than one-half (1/2) of the
amount in dispute, plus any amounts not in dispute; otherwise, the person against whom
indemnification is sought shall be deemed to be the non-prevailing party.

          9.7 Stockholders’ Agent.

               (a) The Target stockholders, by virtue of the approval of this Agreement, hereby irrevocably
appoint the Stockholders’ Agent as his, her or its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with
full power of substitution (such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled
with an interest) to act on his, her or its behalf with respect to any and all matters, claims,
controversies, or disputes arising out of the terms of this Agreement after the Closing Date. The
Stockholders’ Agent shall have the power to take any and all actions which the Stockholders’ Agent
believes are necessary or appropriate or in the best interests of the Target stockholders, as fully
as if each such stockholder was acting on its, his or her own behalf, with respect to
indemnification claims made under Section 9 of this Agreement including (a) following the Closing,
to give and receive notices and communications made pursuant to this Agreement and the other
documents executed in connection herewith relating to Section 9, (b) to administer, negotiate and
settle any claims with respect to indemnification claims made under Section 9 of this Agreement, or
any disputes arising in connection therewith, (c) to object to such claims, (d) to agree to,
negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders
of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims, (e) to take all actions necessary
or appropriate in the judgment of the Stockholders’ Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing
or as may be necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Stockholders’ Agent to implement the
transactions contemplated hereby, and (f) to employ accountants, attorneys and other professionals,
and incur and pay all costs and expenses related to the performance of the Stockholders’ Agent’s
duties and obligations. Notices or communications to or from the Stockholders’ Agent shall
constitute notice to or from each of the stockholders for purposes of this Agreement and the other
documents executed in connection herewith. The death or incapacity of any Target stockholder shall
not terminate the authority and agency of the Stockholders’ Agent. If the Stockholders’ Agent
shall be unable or unwilling to serve in such capacity, his successor shall be named by those
persons holding a majority of the shares of Target Capital Stock, on an as-if converted basis, held
by all stockholders immediately prior to the Effective Time under this Agreement, and such
successor shall serve and exercise the powers of Stockholders’ Agent under this Agreement.

               (b) The Stockholders’ Agent shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as
Stockholder’ Agent (i) with the written consent of Target stockholders who, immediately prior to
the Effective Time, held a majority of the outstanding Target Capital Stock (calculated on an
as-converted basis) or (ii) while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment
and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such
good faith. The Target stockholders shall severally indemnify and hold the Stockholders’ Agent
harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without

50

 

gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Stockholders’ Agent and arising out of or in
connection with the acceptance or administration of his duties hereunder.

               (c) Subject to applicable law, the Stockholders’ Agent shall, upon reasonable prior notice and
at the expense of the Target stockholders, have reasonable access during normal business hours and
upon reasonable notice to information about Target and the Surviving Corporation and the reasonable
assistance of Target’s and the Surviving Corporation’s officers and employees for purposes of
performing his duties and exercising his rights hereunder, provided that the Stockholders’ Agent
shall treat confidentially and not disclose any nonpublic information from or about Target or the
Surviving Corporation to anyone (except on a need to know basis to individuals who agree to treat
such information confidentially).

               (d) Acquiror acknowledges that the Stockholders’ Agent may have a conflict of interest with
respect to his duties as Stockholders’ Agent, and in such regard the Stockholders’ Agent has
informed Acquiror that he will act in the best interests of the Target stockholders.

               (e) Any portion of the Escrow Amount released by the Escrow Agent for the benefit of the
Target stockholders shall first be used for the purpose of reimbursing the Stockholders’ Agent for
losses and expenses incurred in connection with its acting as the Stockholders’ Agent pursuant to
this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing and to enable the Stockholders’ Agent to pay all
costs and expenses payable pursuant to this Agreement, the Stockholders’ Agent shall be authorized
to direct the Escrow Agent to pay the Stockholders’ Agent (for its own account) for such amounts
from any Escrow Amount released by the Escrow Agent for the benefit of the Target stockholders.

          9.8 Actions of the Stockholders’ Agent. A decision, act, consent or instruction of
the Stockholders’ Agent shall constitute a decision of all Target stockholders and shall be final,
binding and conclusive upon each such Target stockholder, and the Escrow Agent and Acquiror may
rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholders’ Agent as being the
decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every such Target stockholder. The Escrow Agent
and Acquiror are hereby relieved from any liability to any person for any acts done by them in
accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholders’ Agent.

          9.9 Third-Party Claims.

               (a) Notice of Third Party Claims. In the event Acquiror receives written notice of a
third-party claim which Acquiror believes may result in a demand against the Escrow Fund by an
Acquiror Indemnified Person, Acquiror shall notify the Stockholders’ Agent of such claim in writing
(a “Claim Notice”) promptly after the Acquiror becomes aware of such claim, and in any
event within ten (10) business days thereof; provided that no delay on the part of the Acquiror in
providing such notice to Stockholders’ Agent shall relieve the Target stockholders from any
obligation hereunder unless, and then solely to the extent that, the Target stockholders are
prejudiced thereby.

51

 

               (b) Defense. The Acquiror will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense
of the Acquiror, such third party claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be
prosecuted reasonably and in good faith by the Acquiror to final conclusion or will be settled at
the discretion of the Acquiror with the consent of the Stockholder’s Agent, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event that the Stockholders’ Agent consents to any
such settlement, the Stockholders’ Agent shall have no power or authority to object under Section
9.5 or any other provision of this Section 9 to the amount of any claim by Acquiror against the
Escrow Fund for indemnity with respect to such settlement. The Acquiror will have full control of
such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof. If requested by the
Acquiror, the Stockholders’ Agent and the Target stockholders will, at the sole cost and expense of
the Acquiror, provide reasonable cooperation to the Acquiror in contesting any third party claim
that the Acquiror elects to contest. The Stockholder’s Agent and the Target stockholders shall be
entitled, at their expense, to participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of such
third party claim controlled by the Acquiror pursuant to this Section 9.9(b)

          9.10 Adjustment for Insurance. For purposes of this Section 9, all Damages shall be
measured net of any amounts actually recovered (after deducting related costs and expenses) by the
Acquiror Indemnified Persons for the Damages for which such indemnification payment is payable
under any insurance policy, warranty or indemnity from any third party. Acquiror shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under any such insurance policy,
warranty or indemnity.

     10. General Provisions.

          10.1 Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and
shall be deemed duly delivered: (i) upon receipt if delivered personally; (ii) three (3) business

          10.2 Definitions. In this Agreement any reference to any event, change, condition or
effect being “material” with respect to any entity or group of entities means any material
event, change, condition or effect related to the financial condition, properties, assets
(including intangible assets), liabilities, business, operations or results of operations of such
entity or group of entities. In this Agreement any reference to a “Material Adverse
Effect” with respect to any entity or group of entities means any event, change or effect that
is materially adverse to the financial condition, properties, assets, liabilities, business,
operations, results of operations or prospects of such entity and its subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, but excluding any event, change or effect that is generally applicable to the United States
economy or financial, securities or capital markets or to the industries in which Target operates.
In this Agreement any reference to a party’s “knowledge” means such party’s actual knowledge after
reasonable inquiry of officers, directors and other employees of such party reasonably believed to
have knowledge of such matters. In this Agreement, an entity shall be deemed to be a
“Subsidiary” of a party if such party directly or indirectly owns, beneficially or of
record, at least 50% of the outstanding equity or financial interests of such entity.

          10.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of
which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more
counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being
understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.

          10.4 Entire Agreement; Nonassignability; Parties in Interest. This Agreement and the
documents and instruments and other agreements specifically referred to herein or delivered
pursuant hereto, including the exhibits and schedules hereto, including the Target Disclosure
Schedule and the Acquiror Disclosure Schedule: (a) together constitute the entire agreement among
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof
except for the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect, and shall
survive any termination of this Agreement or the Closing, in accordance with its terms; and (b) are
not intended to confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder and shall not be
assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the written consent of the other parties.

          10.5 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the
application thereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void
or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the
application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as
reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such
void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will
achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or
unenforceable provision.

          10.6 Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies
herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any
other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of
any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

54

 

          10.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the internal laws of California applicable to parties residing in California, without regard
applicable principles of conflicts of law. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the
exclusive jurisdiction of any court located within the County of Santa Clara, in connection with
any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement or the matters contemplated hereby and it
agrees that process may be served upon it in any manner authorized by the laws of the State of
California for such persons and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which it
might otherwise have to such jurisdiction and such process.

          10.8 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented
by counsel during the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore,
waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that
ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such
agreement or document.

          10.9 Amendment; Waiver. Any amendment or waiver of any of the terms or conditions of
this Agreement must be in writing and must be duly executed by or on behalf of the party to be
charged with such waiver. The failure of a party to exercise any of its rights hereunder or to
insist upon strict adherence to any term or condition hereof on any one occasion shall not be
construed as a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement at a later date. Further, no waiver of any of the
terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed to or shall constitute a waiver of any other
term of condition hereof (whether or not similar).

55

 

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Target, Acquiror, Merger Sub and Stockholders’ Agent have caused this
Agreement to be executed and delivered by each of them or their respective officers thereunto duly
authorized, all as of the date first written above.

Kennard Employment Agreement

     4. Voluntary Termination. In the event that you voluntarily resign from your
employment with the Company, or in the event that your employment terminates as a result of
your death, you will be entitled to no compensation or benefits from the Company other than
those earned under Paragraph 3 through the date of your termination. You agree that if you
voluntarily terminate your employment with the Company for any reason, you will provide the Company
with at least 10 days’ written notice of your resignation. The Company shall have the option, in
its sole discretion, to make your resignation effective at any time prior to the end of such notice
period, provided the Company pays you an amount equal to the base salary you would have earned
through the end of the notice period.

     5. Other Termination. Your employment may be terminated under the circumstances set
forth below.

          (a) Termination by Disability. If, by reason of any physical or mental incapacity,
you have been or will be prevented from performing your then-current duties under this Agreement
for more than three consecutive months, then, to the extent permitted by law, the Company may
terminate your employment without any advance notice. Upon such termination, if you sign a general
release of known and unknown claims in a form satisfactory to the Company, the Company will provide
you with the severance payments and benefits described in Paragraph 5(c). Nothing in this
paragraph shall affect your rights under any applicable Company disability plan; provided, however,
that your severance payments will be offset by any disability income payments received by you so
that the total monthly severance and disability income payments during your severance period shall
not exceed your then-current base salary.

          (b) Termination for Cause or Death: The Company may terminate your employment at any
time for cause (as described below). If your employment is terminated by the Company for cause, or
if your employment terminates as a result of your death, you shall be entitled to no compensation
or benefits from the Company other than those earned under Paragraph 3 through the date of your
termination for cause. Provided, however, that if your employment terminates as a result of your
death, the Company will also pay your estate the prorated portion of any incentive bonus that you
would have earned during the incentive bonus period in which your employment terminates; such
prorated bonus will be paid at the time that incentive bonus is paid to other Company employees.

     For purposes of this Agreement, a termination “for cause” occurs if you are terminated for any
of the following reasons: (i) theft, dishonesty, misconduct or falsification of any employment or
Company records; (ii) improper disclosure of the Company’s confidential or proprietary information;
(iii) any action by you which has a material detrimental effect on the Company’s reputation or
business; (iv) your refusal or inability to perform any assigned duties (other than as a result of
a disability) after written notice from the Company to you of, and a reasonable opportunity to
cure, such failure or inability; or (v) your conviction (including any plea of guilty or no
contest) for any criminal act that impairs your ability to perform your duties under this
Agreement.

          (c) Termination Without Cause: The Company may terminate your employment without
cause at any time. If your employment is terminated by the Company without cause, and
you sign a

2

 

Kennard Employment Agreement

general release of known and unknown claims in a form satisfactory to the Company, you will receive
the following severance benefits:

               (i) severance payments at your final base salary rate for a period of twelve (12) months
following your termination; such payments will be made in accordance with the Company’s normal
payroll practices;

               (ii) payment of the premiums necessary to continue your group health insurance under COBRA
until the earlier of (x) twelve (12) months following your termination date; (y) the date you first
became eligible to participate in another employer’s group health insurance plan, or (z) the date
on which you are no longer eligible for COBRA coverage;

               (iii) the Company will pay you the prorated portion of any incentive bonus that you would have
earned during the incentive bonus period in which your employment terminates; such prorated bonus
will be paid to you at the time that incentive bonus is paid to other Company employees;

               (iv) with respect to any stock options granted to you by the Company, you will cease vesting
upon your termination date; however, you will be entitled to purchase any vested shares of stock
that are subject to those options until the earlier of (x) twelve (12) months following your
termination date, or (y) the date on which the applicable option(s) expires; except as set forth in
this subparagraph, your Company stock options will continue to be subject to and governed by the
applicable stock option agreements between you and the Company;

               (v) payment of your then-provided Company car allowance for the period described in
subparagraph 5(c)(i); and

               (vi) outplacement assistance selected and paid for by the Company.

          (d) Resignation for Good Reason: If you resign from your employment with the Company
for Good Reason (as defined in this paragraph), and such resignation does not qualify as a
Resignation for Good Reason Following a Change of Control as set forth in subparagraph (e) below,
and you sign a general release of known and unknown claims in a form satisfactory to the Company,
you shall receive the severance benefits described in Paragraph 5(c). For purposes of this
paragraph, “Good Reason” means any of the following conditions, which condition(s) remain in effect
60 days after written notice from you to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer of said
condition(s):

               (i) a reduction in your base salary of 20% or more, other than a reduction that is similarly
applicable to all members of the executive staff reporting to the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company; or

               (ii) a material reduction in your employee benefits, other than a reduction that is similarly
applicable to all members of the executive staff reporting to the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company; or

Kennard Employment Agreement

               (iii) the relocation of the Company’s workplace at which you are officed to a location that is
more than 75 miles from the Company’s workplace prior to such relocation.

     The foregoing condition(s) shall not constitute “Good Reason” if you do not provide the Chief
Executive Officer with the notice described above within 45 days after you first become aware of
the condition(s).

          (e) Termination or Resignation For Good Reason Following a Change of Control: If,
within 18 months following any Change of Control (as defined below), your employment is terminated
by the Company without cause, or if you resign from your employment with the Company for Good
Reason Following a Change of Control (as defined below), and you sign a general release of known
and unknown claims in a form satisfactory to the Company, you shall receive the severance benefits
described in Paragraph 5(c); provided, that the time period set forth in subparagraph 5(c)(i), (ii
to a maximum of 18 months), (iv)(x), and (v) shall be increased by an additional twelve (12)
months. In addition, you shall receive a payment equal to the greater of (i) the average of the
annual incentive bonus payments received by you, if any, for the previous three years, or (ii) your
target incentive bonus for the year in which your employment terminates. Such payment will be made
to you within 15 days following your execution of the general release of claims described above.
The Company will also accelerate the vesting of all unvested stock options granted to you by the
Company such that all of your Company stock options will be fully vested as of the date of your
termination/resignation.

     6. Change of Control/Good Reason.

          (a) For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” of the Company shall mean:

               (i) The direct or indirect acquisition by any person or related group of persons (other than
an acquisition from or by the Company or by a Company-sponsored employee benefit plan or by a
person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the
Company) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) of
securities possessing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the
Company’s outstanding securities pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made directly to the
Company’s stockholders which a majority of the Continuing Directors who are not Affiliates or
Associates of the offeror do not recommend such stockholders accept;

               (ii) a change in the composition of the Board over a period of thirty-six (36) months or less
such that a majority of the Board members (rounded up to the next whole number) ceases, by reason
of one or more contested elections for Board membership, to be comprised of individuals who are
Continuing Directors;

               (iii) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, except for a
transaction the principal purpose of which is to change the state in which the Company is
incorporated;

4

Employment Agreement

               (iv) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company (including the capital stock of the Company’s subsidiary corporations);

               (v) the complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

               (vi) any reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but in which securities
possessing more than [forty percent (40%)] of the total combined voting power of the Company’s
outstanding securities are transferred to a person or persons different from those who held such
securities immediately prior to such merger; or

               (vii) the acquisition in a single or series of related transactions by any person or related
group of persons (other than the Company or by a Company-sponsored employee benefit plan) of
beneficial ownership ( within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) of securities
possessing more than [forty percent (40%)] of the total combined voting power of the Company’s
outstanding securities but excluding any such transaction or series of related transactions that
the Administrator of the Company Stock Option Plan determines shall not be a Corporate Transaction.

For the purposes of this Agreement, the terms “Continuing Directors,” “Corporate Transaction,”
“Affiliate” and “Associate” shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Company’s Stock
Option Plan.

          (b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason Following a Change of Control” means any of
the following conditions, which condition(s) remain in effect 60 days after written notice from you
to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer of said condition(s):

               (i) a material and adverse change in your position, duties or responsibilities for the
Company, as measured against your position, duties or responsibilities immediately prior to the
Change of Control; or

               (ii) a reduction in your base salary as measured against your base salary immediately prior to
the Change in Control; or

               (iii) a material reduction in your employee benefits, other than a reduction that is similarly
applicable to all members of the executive staff reporting to the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company; or

               (iv) the relocation of the Company’s workplace at which you are officed to a location that is
more than 75 miles from the Company’s workplace prior to such relocation for the Company.

The foregoing condition(s) shall not constitute “Good Reason Following a Change of Control” if you
do not provide the Chief Executive Officer with the notice described above within 45 days after you
first become aware of the condition(s).

     7. Confidential and Proprietary Information: As a condition of your continued
employment, and to the extent that you have not done so already, you agree to sign and abide by

5

 

Kennard Employment Agreement

the Company’s standard form of employee proprietary information/confidentiality/assignment of
inventions agreement.

     8. Termination Obligations.

          (a) You agree that all property, including, without limitation, all equipment, proprietary
information, documents, books, records, reports, notes, contracts, lists, computer disks (and other
computer-generated files and data), and copies thereof, created on any medium and furnished to,
obtained by, or prepared by you in the course of or incident to your employment, belongs to the
Company and shall be returned to the Company promptly upon any termination of your employment.

          (b) Upon your termination for any reason, and as a condition of your receipt of any severance
benefits hereunder, you will promptly resign in writing from all offices and directorships then
held with the Company or any affiliate of the Company.

          (c) Following the termination of your employment with the Company for any reason, you shall
fully cooperate with the Company in all matters relating to the winding up of pending work on
behalf of the Company and the orderly transfer of work to other employees of the Company. You
shall also cooperate in the defense of any action brought by any third party against the Company.

     9. Limitation of Payments and Benefits.

          To the extent that any of the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement or
otherwise payable to you (the “Payments”) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of
Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the amount of such
Payments shall be either:

                    the full amount of the Payments, or

                    a reduced amount which would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the excise
tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”),

whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and
local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by you, on an after-tax basis, of the
greatest amount of benefit. In the event that any Excise Tax is imposed on the Payments, you will
be fully responsible for the payment of any and all Excise Tax, and the Company will not be
obligated to pay all or any portion of any Excise Tax.

     10. Other Activities. In order to protect the Company’s valuable proprietary
information, you agree that during your employment and for a period of [one] year[s] following the
termination of your employment with the Company for any reason, you will not, as a compensated or
uncompensated officer, director, consultant, advisor, partner, joint venturer, investor,
independent contractor, employee or otherwise, provide any labor, services, advice or assistance to
any entity or its successor, which is a direct competitor of the Company (and specifically
identified as such in the Company’s Form 10K), unless specifically permitted to do

6

 

Kennard
Employment Agreement

so in writing by the Company or its successor. You acknowledge and agree that the restrictions contained in the
preceding sentence are reasonable and necessary, as there is a significant risk that your provision
of labor, services, advice or assistance to any of those competitors could result in the inevitable
disclosure of the Company’s proprietary information. You further acknowledge and agree that the restrictions contained in this paragraph will not preclude you
from engaging in any trade, business or profession that you are qualified to engage in.

     11. Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute or claim relating to or arising
out of your employment relationship with the Company, this Agreement, or the termination of your
employment with the Company for any reason (including, but not limited to, any claims of breach of
contract, wrongful termination or age, sex, race, sexual orientation, disability or other
discrimination or harassment), you and the Company agree that all such disputes shall be fully,
finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration
Association in Santa Clara County, California. You and the Company hereby knowingly and willingly
waive your respective rights to have any such disputes or claims tried to a judge or jury.
Provided, however, that this arbitration provision shall not apply to any claims for injunctive
relief by you or the Company.

     12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, such provision shall be modified so as to make it valid, legal and enforceable, and
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not
in any way be affected.

     13. Applicable Withholding. All salary, bonus, severance and other payments
identified in this Agreement are subject to applicable withholding by the Company.

     14. Assignment. In view of the personal nature of the services to be performed under
this Agreement by you, you cannot assign or transfer any of your obligations under this Agreement.

     15. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the agreements referred to above constitute
the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding the terms and conditions of your
employment, and they supersede all prior negotiations, representations or agreements between you
and the Company regarding your employment, whether written or oral, including your Employment
Agreement dated December 1, 1998, with the Company. This Agreement sets forth our entire agreement
regarding the Company’s obligation to provide you with severance benefits upon any termination of
your employment, and you shall not be entitled to receive any other severance benefits from the
Company pursuant to any Company severance plan, policy or practice.

     16. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the law of the State of California.

     17. Modification. This Agreement may only be modified or amended by a supplemental
written agreement signed by you and an authorized representative of the Company.
