      April 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008 (the “Term”) between NS8 Corporation (“NS8”

      12 month period by giving written notice to the other party of at least thirty

    Compensation.

    

    In
      consideration for the services rendered by SKS to the Company throughout the
      Term of Engagement, the Company shall compensate SKS as follows:

     

    NS8
      agrees that SKS’s daily remuneration will be $1,500 in cash paid on a weekly
      basis for time actually spent working on the Company and award SKS 100,000
      shares per month or the period April 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008. In
      addition, SKS will receive 100,000 warrants per month @ $0.02/warrant for the
      same period. For that amount, SKS will make available to the Company up to
      two
      weeks of Mr. O’Leary’s or another Senior Consultant’s of SKS time. As noted
      above, the cash remuneration will only be paid for time actually spent working

      or
      elsewhere designated such as investor meetings or sales & marketing
      opportunities.

    I
      would
      like to plan on being on site at least 1 to 2 weeks per month to accomplish

      both
      operationally and financially, establish the pricing model and help oversee
      the
      sales efforts of the company, reduce Cornell Capital debt, and getting the
      Company to breakeven and keeping it profitable once it hits breakeven.

      GENERAL
        RELEASE AND SEPARATION AGREEMENT

       

      THIS
        GENERAL RELEASE AND SEPARATION AGREEMENT
        (“Agreement”) is made March 31, 2007 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Eric
        Klinker (“Employee”) and Internap Network Services Corporation (“INTERNAP”), and
        arises out of the termination of Employee’s employment. 

       

      WHEREAS,
        Employee was employed by INTERNAP;

       

      WHEREAS,
        Employee’s employment with INTERNAP was terminated effective 3/31/07,
        (“Termination Date”);

       

      NOW,
        THEREFORE,
        for and
        in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual promises and covenants set
        forth
        herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and
        receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, Employee and INTERNAP, intending
        to be
        legally bound, agree as follows:

       

      1.            
        The
        foregoing recitals are hereby made a part of this Agreement and are incorporated
        herein by reference.

       

      2.            
        (a)    Employee
        agrees that he voluntarily resigns his employment with INTERNAP effective
        the
        date that he signs this Agreement (the “End Date”). INTERNAP agrees that it has
        accepted Employee’s resignation from employment effective that date. INTERNAP
        further agrees that it will reflect Employee’s resignation in his personnel file
        and other personnel records.

       

                                     
        (b)    Employee
        acknowledges and agrees that he received all compensation (whether as deferred
        compensation, bonuses, or otherwise), employment benefits (including, but
        not
        limited to, health insurance, dental insurance, life insurance, disability
        insurance, 403(b) contributions, and profit-sharing payments), vacation pay,
        sick pay, other paid leave, and any other alleged obligations relating to
        Employee’s employment with INTERNAP through the End Date.

       

                                     
        (c)    Employee
        will not knowingly reapply for employment with INTERNAP, nor will Employee
        knowingly accept any employment or otherwise work for INTERNAP. Employee
        also
        will not accept any employment or assignment from an employer other than
        INTERNAP that would place him on the premises of INTERNAP or otherwise require
        him to perform services on the premises of INTERNAP. Employee agrees that
        his
        forbearance to seek future employment with INTERNAP is purely contractual
        and is
        in no way involuntary, discriminatory, retaliatory, or in violation of any
        contract or policy of INTERNAP. If Employee applies for employment with
        INTERNAP, INTERNAP is under no obligation to process or otherwise act upon
        that
        application.

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          
          

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

       

      3.            
        (a)    As
        consideration for Employee’s service to INTERNAP and for the promises made by
        Employee in this Agreement, INTERNAP agrees to pay to Employee the sum of
        Three
        Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00). The parties agree that this payment
        will
        be made to Employee within seven (7) business days of the execution of this
        Agreement by INTERNAP and Employee. We will attempt to wire these funds to
        Mr.
        Klinker’s personal bank. Employee understands and agrees that the payment and
        covenants by INTERNAP referenced in this paragraph 3 are in consideration
        for
        his promises in this Agreement and that he otherwise is not entitled to this
        or
        any other payment for any reason on account of his separation from employment
        with INTERNAP. The parties further understand and agree that the payment
        and
        promises referenced in this Paragraph 3(a) shall fully and completely extinguish
        all obligations of INTERNAP to Employee, including, but not limited to,
        severance pay, compensation (whether as deferred compensation, bonuses, or
        otherwise), the provision of any employment benefits (including, but not
        limited
        to, health insurance, dental insurance, life insurance, disability insurance,
        403(b) contributions, and profit-sharing payments), vacation pay, sick pay,
        or
        any other alleged obligations relating to Employee’s employment with INTERNAP
        other than those specifically set forth in Paragraph 3(b).

       

                                     
        (b)    Employee
        and INTERNAP agree that Employee shall have three months following the Effective
        Date in which to exercise the INTERNAP stock options held by him and that
        were
        vested as of the Effective Date, after which such options shall
        expire.

       

                                     
        (c)    Employee
        may elect to continue, at Employee’s own cost, health insurance coverage under
        INTERNAP’s healthcare coverage plan commencing on the Termination Date and
        continuing thereafter for a period of eighteen (18) months, pursuant to Title
        X
        of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA). In
        the
        event Employee elects to continue such health insurance coverage, Employee
        shall
        remit to INTERNAP payment in full for such health insurance coverage on a
        monthly basis, in advance, and Employee will be eligible to convert any life
        insurance coverage to an individual plan.

       

      4.           
        (a)    In
        consideration of the foregoing payments and covenants, Employee, for himself
        and
        for his heirs, legal representatives, and assigns, hereby unconditionally
        and
        absolutely releases, remises, acquits and forever discharges INTERNAP and
        its
        heirs, executors, administrators, legal and personal representatives; former
        and/or current owners, partners, officers, directors, employees, residents,
        shareholders, managers, agents, attorneys, predecessors, successors, assigns,
        trustees, purchasers, principals, and privies; past, present, and future
        parent,
        subsidiary, and affiliated companies (both direct and indirect), divisions,
        related trade names, and affiliated entities of any kind; insurers; and any
        person or entity who may be jointly liable with INTERNAP or any of the aforesaid
        persons or entities (hereinafter referred to as the “INTERNAP Releasees”) from
        any and all claims, suits, personal remedies, debts, dues, demands, grievances,
        sums of money, rights, damages, liabilities, proceedings, actions, and causes
        of

        suspected or unsuspected, and whether at law, in equity, or otherwise), which

        order;
        and (i) any ordinance or statute promulgated by any city, county, municipality,
        or other state subdivision.

                  independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being
                  generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper
                  means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from
                  its disclosure or use; and 

              

      

       

      
        	
              	 (2)

                  the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances
                  to
                  maintain its secrecy. 

              

      

       

                                     
        (c)    To
        the
        extent that the above definitions contained in Paragraphs 5(a) and 5(b) are
        inconsistent with the definitions of “Confidential Information” and “Trade
        Secret” mandated under applicable law, the foregoing definitions shall be deemed

        all times during which such item remains a Trade Secret under Georgia law;
        and
        (2) with regard to each item under which Georgia law is INTERNAP Confidential
        Information, for a period of two (2) years after the Effective Date of this

        any
        portion of the Trade Secrets and Confidential Information as strictly
        confidential and wholly owned by the INTERNAP Releasees, and will not, for
        any
        reason in any fashion, either directly or indirectly use, sell, lend, lease,
        distribute, license, transfer, assign, show, disclose, disseminate, reproduce,
        copy, or otherwise communicate any such item or information to any third
        party,
        for his/her own benefit or for any purpose other than in accordance with
        the
        express, written instructions of INTERNAP Releasees.

       

      6.

        dispute concerning violation(s) of any provision in this Agreement shall
        be
        resolved by confidential arbitration to take place in Atlanta, Georgia. The
        prevailing party in the arbitration proceedings shall recover all reasonable
        attorneys’ fees incurred. Arbitration conducted pursuant to the Employment
        Arbitration Rules and Procedures of the American Arbitration Association

        (a)    Employee
        agrees to fully cooperate with reasonable requests by INTERNAP regarding
        any and
        all matters associated with any investigations, claims or litigation involving
        INTERNAP about which the Employee has knowledge or the ability to assist
        INTERNAP in its defense for three (3) years following the date of this
        Agreement. Employee’s cooperation in such matters will include answering
        questions by INTERNAP regarding the subject of any such investigations, claims
        or litigation, voluntarily participating in depositions, providing affidavits
        and testimony if necessary, and assisting INTERNAP in responding to data
        or
        discovery requests. INTERNAP agrees to use every effort to ensure the time
        periods in which Employee’s assistance is sought do not conflict with Employee’s
        work or other business-related obligations. Employee agrees that any
        participation in the above-referenced matters will be truthful and factual.
        Employee further agrees that he will not be paid for his time associated

        in any

        compensated at the rate of $200 per hour. INTERNAP will reimburse Employee
        for
        all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred in providing such
        cooperation.

       

      7.            
        This
        Agreement shall not in any way be construed as an acknowledgement or admission
        by INTERNAP that it has acted wrongfully with respect to Employee or to any
        other person or that Employee has any rights whatsoever against INTERNAP.
        INTERNAP specifically disclaims any liability to or wrongful acts against
        Employee or any other person.

       

      8.

        information disclosed in this Agreement and/or in negotiations leading to
        this
        Agreement, the facts and circumstances leading to this Agreement, the contents
        of this Agreement, and the consideration for this Agreement. Employee shall
        take
        reasonable precautions to prevent disclosure of any term of this Agreement
        and/or its negotiations to third persons. Accordingly, Employee acknowledges,

        person,
        except: (1) to the extent required by court order; (2) pursuant to inquiry
        by the Internal Revenue Service; (3) pursuant to a lawfully issued subpoena,
        provided that Employee, to the extent possible, provides INTERNAP with written
        notice of the existence of such subpoena, at least five (5) calendar days
        prior
        to such disclosure and agrees not to contest any motion for protective order
        or
        motion to quash filed by INTERNAP; (4) on account of an action to enforce
        the
        terms of this Agreement or to redress a breach of any of the terms of this
        Agreement; or (5) to Employee’s attorneys, accountants, insurers and tax
        advisors who have a need to know such information, provided that such persons
        agree to maintain the confidentiality of the information prior to Employee
        making any disclosure.

       

      9.            
        From
        and
        after the Effective Date of this Agreement, Employee will not provide any
        disparaging information about INTERNAP or any of its current or former parties,
        officers, directors, agents, employees, or representatives to any person

        other
        persons to do so, except to the extent required by: (a) a court order; (b)
        a
        lawfully issued subpoena, provided that Employee, to the extent possible,

        least
        five (5) calendar days prior to such disclosure and agrees not to contest
        any
        motion for protective order or motion to quash filed by INTERNAP; or (c)

      10.  
Employee,
        as evidenced by his signature below, represents that he does not possess
        and
        otherwise has no custody or control of any property of INTERNAP, including,
        but
        not limited to, keys, identification cards, access cards, credit cards,
        telephone cards, parking permits, cellular telephones, pagers, business cards,
        manuals, and/or business documents of INTERNAP. Employee further agrees that,
        should he discover that he does possess or otherwise has custody or control
        of
        any property of INTERNAP, he will return, via hand-delivery or overnight
        delivery, such property to: Eric Suddith, Internap Network Services Corporation,
        250 Williams Street, Suite E-100, Atlanta, GA 30303, within ten (10) days
        of the
        discovery of the existence of such property of INTERNAP.

       

      11.    INTERNAP
        makes no representations, warranties or agreements in this Agreement or
        otherwise concerning any tax treatment of the payment set forth above in
        Paragraph 3. Employee understands that he may receive a Form W-2 or Form
        1099
        and any state or local equivalents in connection with the payment set forth
        in
        Paragraph 3 and agrees that he will be solely responsible for the payment
        of any
        and all taxes, assessments, or other financial obligations, whether federal,
        state, or local, which are legally required to be paid in connection with
        the
        payment set forth in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement. Employee further understands
        and agrees that, if the Internal Revenue Service or any other federal, state,
        or
        local governmental agency determines that some or all of the payment set
        forth
        above in Paragraph 3 is subject to federal, state, and/or local taxes and
        if, as
        a result of Employee’s failure to report the payments set forth in Paragraph 3,
        pay the taxes required on the payment set forth in Paragraph 3, or any other
        action and/or inaction on the part of Employee, the Internal Revenue Service
        or
        any other federal, state, or local governmental agency imposes upon or assesses
        against INTERNAP or its insurers any tax obligations or responsibilities
        due in
        connection with the payment set forth in Paragraph 3(a) of the Agreement
        and/or
        assesses interest or imposes a fine and/or a penalty against INTERNAP and/or
        any
        of its insurers, then, in such event, Employee will indemnify, reimburse
        and
        hold harmless INTERNAP and/or all of its insurers, as the case may be, for
        such
        sums incurred by INTERNAP and/or its insurers, as the case may be, in connection
        with such assessed taxes and/or interest or imposed fine and/or penalty within
        ten (10) calendar days of being mailed notice of the existence of such
        assessment or imposition.

       

      12.    Any
        other
        benefits not mentioned in this Agreement that Employee may be entitled to,
        including, but not limited to, his rights to health insurance continuation
        under
        Georgia law, shall be provided to Employee in accordance with the underlying
        plan or document governing such benefits and/or applicable law.

       

      13.    (a)    Employee
        acknowledges and agrees that, before signing this Agreement, he was advised
        and
        is hereby advised in writing by INTERNAP to review it and consult with an
        attorney of his choosing and that, to the extent Employee desired, he has
        availed himself of these opportunities.

       

                                       (b)    Employee
        represents and agrees that he has carefully read and fully understands all
        of
        the provisions of this Agreement. Employee understands the final and binding
        nature of the release and waiver of his rights specified herein, and he
        knowingly and voluntarily enters into this Agreement with the intent to be
        bound
        by it, and without any coercion or duress from any person or source
        whatsoever.

        understandings, representations, inducements, promises, warranties and
        conditions between the parties with respect to the terms and conditions of
        this
        Agreement. No other agreement, understanding, representation, inducement,
        promise, warranty or condition of any kind with respect to the terms and
        conditions of this Agreement shall be relied upon by the parties unless
        expressly incorporated herein.

        Agreement may not be amended or modified except by an agreement in writing
        signed by all of the parties hereto.

       

      16.    Any
        failure of any party on one or more occasions to enforce or require the strict
        keeping and performance of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement
        shall not constitute a waiver of such terms and conditions of this Agreement,
        shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition at any future time,
        and
        shall not prevent any party from insisting on the strict keeping and performance
        of such terms and conditions at a later time.

       

      17.    The
        provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable, and any invalidity
        or
        unenforceability of any one or more of its provisions shall not affect the
        validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof.

       

      18.    Each
        party to this Agreement agrees and acknowledges that no presumption, inference,
        or conclusion of any kind shall be made or drawn against the drafter or draft(s)
        of this Agreement. Each party to this Agreement also agrees and acknowledges
        that he/it has contributed to the final version of this Agreement through
        comments and negotiations.

       

      19.    This
        Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties
        and each of their respective heirs, personal and legal representatives,
        purchasers, executors, administrators, successors and assigns. Employee may
        not
        assign any rights or obligations hereunder without INTERNAP’s prior written
        consent.

       

      20.    It
        is
        understood and agreed that the parties to this Agreement do hereby declare,
        represent, acknowledge and warrant that:
