"Agreement") dated December 10, 1999 is entered into by and between
Conductus, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors, the

               a.   Investor agrees to purchase from the Company, and the

Common Stock of the Company equal to 200% of the Preferred Shares purchased

               b.   The term "Conversion Stock" shall mean any shares of the
Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"),
issued or to be issued to Investor upon conversion of the Preferred Shares

upon the exercise of the Warrant.

          2.   CLOSING.

               a.   The closing of the sale of the Preferred Shares and the

               b.   At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Investor (i) a
certificate representing the Preferred Shares that Investor is purchasing and

          3.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.  The Company
hereby represents and warrants to Investor as follows:

               a.   The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has
all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now
conducted and as proposed to be conducted.  The Company is duly qualified to
transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the
failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on its business or
properties.

               b.   All corporate action on the part of the Company, its
officers and directors necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery
of this Agreement, the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder
and thereunder, and the authorization, issuance (or reservation for issuance),
sale and delivery of the Preferred Shares and the Warrant being sold hereunder
and the Conversion Stock has been taken or will be taken prior to the Closing,
and this Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the
Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except (i) as
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and
other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights
generally and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific
performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

               c.   The Company is not in violation or default of any provision
of its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, or of any
judgment, order, writ, or decree by which it is bound.  The Company is not in
violation or default in any material respect of any instrument or contract to
which it is a party or by which it is bound, or, to its knowledge, of any
provision of any federal or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to the
Company, which violation or default would have a material adverse effect on its
business or properties.  The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not
result in any such violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or
without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any
such provision, instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract or an
event that results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any
assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture, or
nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization, or approval
applicable to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or
properties.

               d.   No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any
federal, state or local governmental authority on the part of the Company is
required in connection with the consummation of the

                                    2

<PAGE>

transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except (i) the filing of the
Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Delaware; and (ii)
the filing pursuant to Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, which filing will be effected
within 15 days of the sale of the Preferred Shares hereunder, or such other
post-closing filings as may be required.

               e.   Except as disclosed in the SEC Filings (as defined below)
(i) there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the
Company's knowledge, currently threatened against the Company that questions the
validity of this Agreement or the right of the Company to enter into such
agreements, or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii)
there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, currently threatened in writing against the Company,
or against any executive officer or director of the Company which might result,
either individually or in the aggregate, in any material adverse change in the
business, properties, financial condition or operating results of the Company,
as such business is presently conducted.

               f.   The Company has filed all filings with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act or under
Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act") or under the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC (any
such filing, an "SEC Filing") required to be filed by the Company pursuant to
such acts and no SEC Filing contained, on the date on which such document was
filed with the SEC, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state
any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make
the statements, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading.  The financial statements of the Company included in SEC Filings
(including any similar documents filed after the date of this Agreement) comply
as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and
the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (except, in
the case of unaudited statements, as permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC) applied
on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated in
the notes thereto), and fairly present the consolidated financial position of
Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the
consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then
ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit
adjustments).

               g.   Since the date of the Company's most recent quarterly report
on Form 10-Q or most recent periodic report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC,
there has not been any development that has not otherwise been publicly
disclosed that is reasonably likely to result in any material adverse change in
the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

               h.   Except as disclosed in the SEC Filings and as contemplated
hereby, the Company has not granted or agreed to grant any registration rights,
including piggy-back rights, to any person or entity.

               i.   As of December 10, 1999, the authorized capital stock of the
Company consisted of 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, 50,000 of which have
been

                                    3

<PAGE>

designated Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred
Stock"), none of which are issued and outstanding, 4,500,000 of which have
been designated Series B Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock"),
2,461,227 shares of which are issued and outstanding, 400,000 of which have
been designated Series C Preferred Stock, none of which are issued and
20,000,000 shares of Common Stock, 7,156,716 shares of which are issued and
outstanding (the "Series A Preferred Stock", "Series B Preferred Stock",
"Series C Preferred Stock" and the "Common Stock" are collectively referred
to herein as the "Capital Stock").  All of the issued and outstanding shares
of Capital Stock have been duly authorized, validly issued and are fully paid
and nonassessable.

               j.   The Preferred Shares and the Warrant that are being
purchased by the Investor hereunder, when issued, sold or delivered in
accordance with the terms hereof, for the consideration expressed herein, and
the Conversion Stock, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the
Certificate of Designation, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and will be free of any liens and encumbrances created by the
Company and, subject to the accuracy of the representations of the Investor in
this Agreement, will be issued in compliance with all applicable federal and
state securities laws.

          4.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF INVESTOR.  Investor hereby
represents and warrants to the Company on the date hereof, and agrees with the
Company (unless otherwise specified as provided in the paragraphs below), as
follows:

               a.   Investor understands that no United States federal or state
agency has passed on, reviewed or made any recommendation or endorsement of the
Preferred Shares, the Warrant or the Conversion Stock.

               b.   Investor has full power and authority to enter into this
Agreement and such Agreement constitutes its valid and legally binding
obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of
general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and
(ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance,
injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

               c.   This Agreement is made with Investor in reliance upon
Investor's representation to the Company, which by Investor's execution of this
Agreement Investor hereby confirms, that the Preferred Shares to be received by
Investor, the Warrant and the Conversion Stock (collectively, the "Securities")
will be acquired for investment for Investor's own account, not as a nominee or
agent, and not with a present view to the resale or distribution of any part
thereof, and that Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any
participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.  By executing this
Agreement, Investor further represents that Investor does not have any contract,
undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant
participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the
Securities.

               d.   Investor is an investor in securities of companies in the
development stage and acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of its
investment, and has

                                    4

<PAGE>

such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the
Securities.  Investor also represents it has not been organized for the
purpose of acquiring the Securities.

               e.   Investor is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of
SEC Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, as presently in effect and all representations
made by Investor in that certain Investor Questionnaire completed by Investor
and delivered to the Company are true and correct in all respects as if made on
the date hereof.

               f.   Investor understands that the Securities are being offered
and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the registration
requirements of Federal and state securities laws and that the Company is
relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties,
agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Investor set forth herein
in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability
of the Investor to acquire the Securities.

               g.   Investor understands that the Securities it is purchasing
are characterized as "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws
inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not
involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations
such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act,
only in certain limited circumstances.  In this connection, Investor represents
that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands
the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

               h.   Without in any way limiting the representations set forth
above, Investor further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion
of the Securities unless and until the transferee has agreed in writing for the
benefit of the Company to be bound by the terms of this Agreement provided and
to the extent such terms are then applicable, and:

                    (1)    There is then in effect a Registration Statement
under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition
is made in accordance with such Registration Statement; or

                    (2)    (i) Investor shall have notified the Company of the
proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed
statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) if
reasonably requested by the Company, Investor shall have furnished the Company
with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such
disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Securities
Act.  It is agreed that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for
transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in circumstances that require a
designation of an entity's status as an "affiliate".

               i.   It is understood that the certificates evidencing the
Securities will bear the following legends:

                                    5

<PAGE>

          "THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933, AS AMENDED.  THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR
HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT
TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE
COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE
144 OF SUCH ACT."

               j.   The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
and the consummation by Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby do not
and will not (i) result in a violation of Investor's charter documents or bylaws
or (ii) conflict with any material agreement, indenture or instrument to which
Investor is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any order, judgment or
decree of any court or governmental agency applicable to Investor or, to the
Investor's knowledge, of any law, rule, or regulation.  Investor is not required
to obtain any consent or authorization of any governmental agency in order for
it to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

          5.   COVENANTS.

               a.   The Company covenants and agrees with Investor as follows:

                    (1)    For so long as any of the Preferred Shares are
outstanding, and in any case for a period of 40 calendar days thereafter, the
Company will cause its Common Stock to continue to be registered under Sections
12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, will comply in all respects with its
reporting and filing obligations under said act, and will not take any action or
file any document (whether or not permitted by the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act or the rules thereunder) to terminate or suspend its reporting and
filing obligations under said acts, except as permitted herein.  For so long as
any of the Preferred Shares are outstanding, and in any case for a period of 40
calendar days thereafter, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts
to continue the listing or trading of its Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock
Market ("Nasdaq") or on a national securities exchange (as defined in the
Exchange Act) and will comply in all respects with the Company's reporting,
filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the National
Association of Securities Dealers and Nasdaq.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the provisions of this subsection shall not in any way restrict the Company's
ability to negotiate and consummate the consolidation, reorganization or merger
of the Company with or into any other corporation or corporations or a sale,
conveyance, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's
property or business.

                    (2)    The Company will (i) comply with the terms and
conditions of the Preferred Shares as set forth in the Certificate of
Designation and (ii) not amend the Certificate of Designation without the
express written consent of holders of 66 2/3% of the then outstanding Series C
Preferred Stock.

                    (3)    For so long as any of the Preferred Shares and the
Warrant are outstanding, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep
available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued
Common Stock, for issuance upon conversion of such

                                    6

<PAGE>

Preferred Shares or upon exercise of such Warrant, not less than the maximum
number of shares of Conversion Stock then so issuable.

               b.   The Investor covenants and agrees with the Company that (i)
neither Investor nor any of Investor's affiliates nor any person acting on its
or their behalf will at any time offer or sell any Preferred Shares, the Warrant
or any Conversion Stock other than pursuant to registration under the Securities
Act or pursuant to an available exemption therefrom, and (ii) that such Investor
shall report to the Company Sales made pursuant to a registration statement
under Section 6 below.

               c.   The covenants contained in this Section 5 shall terminate
upon the consummation of any consolidation, reorganization or merger of the
Company with or into any other corporation or corporations or a sale,
conveyance, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's
property or business.

               d.   With a view to making available the benefits of certain
rules and regulations of the SEC that may at any time permit the sale of the
restricted securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:

                    (1)    Make and keep public information available, as those
terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all
times after the effective date of the first registration under the Securities
Act filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general
public;

                    (2)    Use its best efforts to then file with the SEC in a
timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

                    (3)    So long as Investor owns any Preferred Shares, to
furnish to the Investor upon request, a written statement by the Company as to
its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 and of the
Securities Act and of the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or
quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the
Company as the Investor may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or
regulation of the SEC allowing the Investor to sell any such securities without
registration.

          6.   REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

               a.   REGISTRATION OF SHARES.  The Company shall file with the
SEC, as promptly as practicable following the Closing and in any event within
120 days after the Closing, a registration statement under the Securities Act
covering the resale to the public by the Investor of the Conversion Stock (the
"Registration Statement").  The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the
Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as
practicable and in any event within 180 days after the Closing.  The Company
shall cause the Registration Statement to remain effective until the later of 2
years from the Closing Date or such time as all Conversion Stock may be sold
under Rule 144 within a ninety (90) day period (assuming

                                    7

<PAGE>

exercise of all Warrants and conversion of all Preferred Shares) or such
earlier time as all of the Conversion Stock covered by the Registration
Statement have been sold pursuant thereto.

               b.   LIMITATIONS ON REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

                    (1)    The Company may, by written notice to the Investor,
(x) delay the filing or effectiveness of the Registration Statement (for up to a
total of sixty (60) days) or (y) suspend (for up to a total of seventy-five (75)
days within any twelve-month period) the Registration Statement after
effectiveness and require that the Investor immediately cease sales of shares
pursuant to the Registration Statement, in the event and during such period as
the Company determines that the existence of any fact or the happening of any
event (including without limitation pending negotiations relating to, or the
consummation of, a transaction or the occurrence of any other event) would
require additional disclosure of material information by the Company in the
Registration Statement the confidentiality of which the Company has a business
purpose to preserve or which fact or event would render the Company unable to
comply with SEC requirements (in either case, a "Suspension Event").  In the
case of any Suspension Event occurring prior to and delaying the filing of the
Registration Statement, the Company shall file the Registration Statement, the
Company shall be required to keep the Registration Statement effective until the
earlier of (x) such time as all of the shares offered thereby have been disposed
of in accordance with the intended methods of distribution set forth in the
Registration Statement or (y) the period required by Section 6.a above plus an
extended period equal to the number of days during which any such suspension was
in effect.

                    (2)    If the Company delays or suspends the Registration
Statement or requires the Investor to cease sales of shares pursuant to
paragraph (1) above, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable following the
termination of the circumstance which entitled the Company to do so, take such
actions as may be necessary to file or reinstate the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement and/or give written notice to all Investors authorizing
them to resume sales pursuant to the Registration Statement.  If as a result
thereof the prospectus included in the Registration Statement has been amended
to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall enclose
such revised prospectus with the notice to Investor given pursuant to this
paragraph 2, and the Investor shall make no offers or sales of shares pursuant
to the Registration Statement other than by means of such revised prospectus.

               c.   REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.

                    (1)    In connection with the filing by the Company of the
Registration Statement, the Company shall furnish to each Investor a copy of the
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act and such additional copies as are reasonably
requested by the Investor.

                                    8

<PAGE>

                    (2)    The Company shall use its best efforts to register
or qualify the Conversion Stock covered by the Registration Statement under the
securities laws of such states as the Investor shall reasonably request;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required in connection with
this paragraph (ii) to qualify as a foreign corporation or execute a general
consent to service of process in any jurisdiction.

                    (3)    If the Company has delivered final prospectuses to
the Investor and after having done so the prospectus is amended to comply with
the requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall promptly notify the
Investor and, if requested by the Company, the Investor shall immediately cease
making offers or sales of shares under the Registration Statement and return all
prospectuses to the Company.  The Company shall promptly provide the Investor
with revised prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised prospectuses,
the Investor shall be free to resume making offers and sales under the
Registration Statement.

                    (4)    The Company shall pay the expenses incurred by it in
complying with its obligations under this Section 6, including all registration
and filing fees, exchange listing fees, fees and expenses of counsel for the
Company, and fees and expenses of accountants for the Company, but excluding (x)
any brokerage fees, selling commissions or underwriting discounts incurred by
the Investor in connection with sales under the Registration Statement and (y)
the fees and expenses of any counsel retained by Investor.

               d.   REQUIREMENTS OF INVESTOR.  The Company shall not be required
to include any Conversion Stock in the Registration Statement unless the
Investor owning such shares furnishes to the Company in writing such information
regarding such Investor and the proposed sale of Conversion Stock by such
Investor as the Company may reasonably request in writing in connection with the
Registration Statement or as shall be required in connection therewith by the
SEC or any state securities law authorities.

               e.   ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS.  An Investor may not assign any of its
rights under this Section 6 except in connection with the transfer of some or
all of his or her Preferred Shares or Conversion Stock to a child or spouse, an
affiliated entity, charitable trust or trust for their benefit or to the limited
or general partner of a Investor, PROVIDED each such transferee agrees in a
written instrument delivered to the Company to be bound by the provisions of
this Section 6.

               f.   INDEMNIFICATION.

                    (1)    To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall
indemnify and hold each

                                    9

<PAGE>

Investor, the partners or officers, directors and stockholders of each
Investor, legal counsel and accountants for each Investor, any underwriter
(as defined in the Securities Act) for such Investor and each person, if any,
who controls such Investor or underwriter within the meaning of the
Securities Act or the  Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities laws, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or
violations in connection with the Registration Statement (collectively a
"Violation"): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in such registration statement, including any
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any
amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state
securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities laws; and the Company will
reimburse each such Investor, underwriter or controlling person for any legal
or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection
6.f(1) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the
consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld),
nor shall the Company be liable in any such ase for any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based
upon a Violation that occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration
by any such Investor, underwriter or controlling person; provided further,
however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement with respect to any
preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Investor or
underwriter, or any person controlling such Investor or underwriter, from
whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities
purchased shares in the offering, if the Company shall have furnished to the
Investor a revised prospectus (by amendment or supplement) which cures the
defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability and if a copy of
such revised prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) was not sent or
given by or on behalf of such Investor or underwriter to such person, if
required by law so to have been delivered, at or prior to the written
confirmation of the sale of the shares to such person.

                    (2)    To the extent permitted by law, each selling
Investor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors,
each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, legal
counsel and accountants for the Company, any underwriter, any other Investor
selling securities in such registration statement and any controlling person of
any such underwriter or other Investor, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become
subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities
laws, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to
the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon
and in conformity with

                                    10

<PAGE>

written information furnished by such Investor expressly for use in
connection with such registration; and each such Investor will reimburse any
person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this subsection 6.f(2), for any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such person in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection
6.f(2) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the
consent of the Investor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld),
provided that in no event shall any indemnity under this subsection 6.f(2)
exceed the gross proceeds from the offering received by such Investor.

                    (3)    Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
this Section 6.f of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6.f, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party
(together with all other indemnified parties that may be inappropriate due to
actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any
other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding.  The failure to
deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the
commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such
action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the
indemnified party under this Section 6.f, but the omission so to deliver written
notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it
may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 6.f.

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

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

No. ___

          This Warrant is issued to ______________ or its registered assigns
("Holder") by CONDUCTUS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), on
December 10, 1999 (the "Warrant Issue Date").  This Warrant is issued pursuant
to the terms of that certain Series C Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase
Agreement dated as of December 10, 1999 (the "Purchase Agreement") by and
between the Company and Holder.

          1.   PURCHASE SHARES.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter
set forth, the Holder is entitled, upon surrender of this Warrant at the
principal office of the Company (or at such other place as the Company shall
notify the Holder in writing), to purchase from the Company up to _____________
(_______) fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock of the Company, as
constituted on the Warrant Issue Date  (the "Common Stock").  The number of
shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Section 1 (the "Shares") shall
be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 8 hereof.

          2.   EXERCISE PRICE.  The purchase price for the Shares shall be
$4.00, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 8 hereof (the "Exercise
Price").

          3.   EXERCISE PERIOD.  This Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or
in part, during the term commencing on the date six months following the Warrant
Issue Date and ending at 5:00 p.m. on December 10, 2004; provided, however, that
in the event of (a) the closing of the Company's sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of its assets, or (b) the closing of the acquisition of the
Company by another entity by means of merger, consolidation or other transaction
or series of related transactions, resulting in the exchange of the outstanding
shares of the Company's capital stock such that at least 50% of the voting power
of the Company is transferred, this Warrant shall, on the date of such event, no
longer be exercisable and become null and void.  In the event of a proposed
transaction of the kind described above, the Company

<PAGE>

shall notify Holder at least fifteen (15) business days prior to the
consummation of such event or transaction.

          4.   METHOD OF EXERCISE.  While this Warrant remains outstanding and
exercisable in accordance with Section 3 above, the Holder may exercise, in
whole or in part, the purchase rights evidenced hereby.  Such exercise shall be
effected by:

               (a)  the surrender of the Warrant, together with a duly executed
copy of the form of Notice of Election attached thereto, to the Secretary of the
Company at its principal offices; and

               (b)  the payment to the Company of an amount equal to the
aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased.

          5.   NET EXERCISE.  In lieu of exercising this Warrant pursuant to
Section 4, the Holder may elect to receive, without payment by the Holder of any
additional consideration, shares of Common Stock equal to the value of this
Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at
the principal office of the Company together with notice of such election, in
which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common
Stock computed using the following formula:

                         X =    Y (A - B)
                                ---------
                                    A

 Where:     X =     The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the
                    Holder pursuant to this net exercise;

            Y =     The number of Shares in respect of which the net issue
                    election is made;

            A =     The fair market value of one share of the Common Stock at
                    the time the net issue election is made;

            B =     The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of the net
                    issuance).

For purposes of this Section 5, the fair market value of one share of Common
Stock as of a particular date shall be determined as follows:  (i) if traded on
a securities exchange or through the Nasdaq National Market, the value shall be
deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the securities on such
exchange over the thirty (30) day period ending three (3) days prior to the net
exercise election; (ii) if traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to
be the average of the closing bid or sale prices (whichever is applicable) over
the thirty (30) day period ending three (3) days prior tot he net exercise; and
(iii) if there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market
value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Company.

          6.   CERTIFICATES FOR SHARES.  Upon the exercise of the purchase
rights evidenced by this Warrant, one or more certificates for the number of
Shares so purchased shall

                                2

<PAGE>

be issued as soon as practicable thereafter (with appropriate restrictive
legends, if applicable), and in any event within thirty (30) days of the
delivery of the subscription notice.

          7.   ISSUANCE OF SHARES.  The Company covenants that the Shares, when
issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, will be duly and validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges
with respect to the issuance thereof.

          8.   ADJUSTMENTS OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES.  The number
of and kind of securities purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

               (a)  SUBDIVISIONS, COMBINATIONS OR OTHER ISSUANCES.  If the
Company shall at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant subdivide its
Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine its Common Stock, or issue
additional shares of its Common Stock as a dividend with respect to any shares
of its Common Stock, the number of Shares issuable on the exercise of this
Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a
subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case of a
combination.  Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the purchase price
payable per share, but the aggregate purchase price payable for the total number
of Shares purchasable under this Warrant (as adjusted) shall remain the same.
Any adjustment under this Section 8(a) shall become effective at the close of
business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of
the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed,
upon the making of such dividend.

               (b)  RECLASSIFICATION, REORGANIZATION AND CONSOLIDATION.  In case
of any reclassification, capital reorganization, or change in the Common Stock
of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination, or stock
dividend provided for in Section 8(a) above), then, as a condition of such
reclassification, reorganization, or change, lawful provision shall be made, and
duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor
shall be delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall have the right at any
time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal
to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares
of stock and other securities and property receivable in connection with such
reclassification, reorganization, or change by a holder of the same number of
shares of Common Stock as were purchasable by the Holder immediately prior to
such reclassification, reorganization, or change.  In any such case appropriate
provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder
so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any
shares of stock or other securities and property deliverable upon exercise
hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the purchase price per
share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate purchase price shall remain the
same.

               (c)  NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT.  When any adjustment is required to be
made in the number or kind of shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant,
or in the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder of such
even and of the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property
thereafter purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant.

                                3

<PAGE>

          9.   NO FRACTIONAL SALE OR SCRIP.  No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant,
but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment
therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

          10.  NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS.  Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the
Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the
Shares, including (without limitation) the right to vote such Shares, receive
dividends or other distributions thereon, exercise preemptive rights or be
notified of stockholder meetings, and such Holder shall not be entitled to any
notice or other communication concerning the business affairs of the Company.
However, nothing in this Section 10 shall limit the right of the Holder to be
provided any notices required under this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement.

          11.  TRANSFERS OF WARRANT.  Subject to compliance with federal and
state securities laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferrable
in whole or in part by the Holder to any person or entity upon written notice to
the Company.  The transfer shall be recorded on the books of the Company upon
the surrender of this Warrant, properly endorsed, to the Company at its
principal offices, and the payment to the Company of all transfer taxes and
other governmental charges imposed on such transfer.  In the event of a partial
transfer, the Company shall issue to the holders one or more appropriate new
warrants.

          12.  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  The terms and provisions of this Warrant
and the Purchase Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon,
the Company and the Holders hereof and their respective successors and assigns.

          13.  AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.  Any term of this Warrant may be amended
and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived (either generally
or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), with the
written consent of the Company and the Holder.  Any waiver or amendment effected
in accordance with this Section shall be binding upon each holder of any Shares
purchased under this Warrant at the time outstanding (including securities into
which such Shares have been converted), each future holder of all such Shares,
and the Company.

          14.  NOTICES.  All notices required under this Warrant and shall be
deemed to have been given or made for all purposes (i) upon personal delivery,
(ii) upon confirmation receipt that the communication was successfully sent to
the applicable number if sent by facsimile, (iii) one day after being sent, when
sent by professional overnight courier service, or (iv) five days after posting
when sent by registered or certified mail.  Notices to the Company shall be sent
to the principal office of the Company (or at such other place as the Company
shall notify the Holder hereof in writing).  Notices to the Holder shall be sent
to the address of the Holder on the books of the Company (or at such other place
as the Holder shall notify the Company hereof in writing).

          15.  ATTORNEY'S FEES.  If any action or law or equity is necessary to
enforce or interpret the terms of this Warrant, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to its reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and disbursements in addition
to any other relief to which it may be entitled.
