                          AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

     This Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Agreement") is entered into as of
February 2, 2007, by and among Akamai Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Buyer"), Lode Star Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Buyer (the "Transitory Subsidiary"), Netli, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Alta Funds, Bessemer Funds, Granite
Global Funds, LeapFrog Ventures, L.P., Morgenthaler Partners VII, L.P., Nokia
Funds and Reed-Elsevier Ventures 2004 Partnership L.P. (each a "Principal
Stockholder" and, collectively, the "Principal Stockholders") and, for the
purposes of Section 9.3 and Article XII herein only, Gary Messiana, John
Metzger, Soren Lindkvist, Willie Tejada and Andrew Robinson (each a
"Non-competition Party" and, collectively, the "Non-competition Parties"). The
Buyer, the Transitory Subsidiary, the Company and the Principal Stockholders are
sometimes referred to herein individually as a "Party" and collectively as the
"Parties".

     This Agreement contemplates a merger of the Transitory Subsidiary into the
Company. In such merger, (a) the Company Stockholders will receive Buyer Common
Shares in exchange for their capital stock of the Company and (b) options and
warrants to acquire common stock of the Company will become options and warrants
to acquire Buyer Common Shares.

     For federal income tax purposes, the Buyer, the Transitory Subsidiary, and
the Company intend, by approving resolutions authorizing this Agreement, to
adopt this Agreement as a plan of reorganization and for the Merger to qualify
as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the
Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

     Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, certain of the Company's
employees are entering into agreements with the Buyer regarding retention
arrangements and certain of the Company's employees and the Principal
Stockholders are entering into non-competition and/or non-solicitation
agreements with the Buyer.

     The Parties intend that, as soon as practicable following the execution of
this Agreement, as a condition of the willingness of the Buyer and the Company
to enter into this Agreement, certain stockholders of the Company will cause
written consents to approve the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to
be executed by themselves or by their proxy holders.

     Now, therefore, in consideration of the representations, warranties and
covenants herein contained, the Parties hereby agree as follows.

                                   ARTICLE I
                                   THE MERGER

     1.1 The Merger. Upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this

          (j) Each share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the
Transitory Subsidiary issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time shall be converted into and thereafter evidence one share of common stock,

          (k) The Company has prepared Schedule I attached hereto as a
preliminary summary of the allocation of proceeds to holders of Company Shares
contemplated by this Section 1.5. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the
Company and the Buyer will jointly amend Schedule I as of the Effective Time to
reflect the allocation of proceeds to holders of Company Shares based on (i) the
total number of Company Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time and to reflect the exercise of any Options or Warrants during the
Pre-Closing Period and (ii) the calculation of the Preliminary Base Purchase
Price.

     1.6 Dissenting Shares.

          (a) Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into or represent the
right to receive Buyer Common Shares, unless the Company Stockholder holding
such Dissenting Shares shall have forfeited his, her or its right to appraisal
under the Delaware General Corporation Law or properly withdrawn, his, her or
its demand for appraisal. If such Company Stockholder has so forfeited or
withdrawn his, her or its right to appraisal of Dissenting Shares, then as of
the occurrence of such event, such holder's Dissenting Shares shall cease to be
Dissenting Shares and shall be converted into and represent the right to receive
the Buyer Common Shares issuable in respect of such Company Shares pursuant to
Section 1.5.

          (b) Immediately after the occurrence of a conversion of Dissenting
Shares into Buyer Common Shares pursuant to Section 1.6(a), (i) if such
conversion occurs during the Escrow Period, the Escrow Amount and the
Representative Amount for the Company Stockholder who formerly held Dissenting
Shares shall be designated as Escrow Shares and Representative Shares,
respectively, and shall remain in escrow pursuant to Section 1.11 and (ii) the
remainder of such Buyer Common Shares not deposited into escrow pursuant to the
foregoing clause (i) (which shares shall be considered Initial Merger Shares for
all purposes of this Agreement) shall be delivered to the Exchange Agent for
distribution to the Company Stockholder holding such Dissenting Shares in
accordance with Section 1.7 and subject to the provisions of Section 1.8.

          (c) The Company shall give the Buyer (i) prompt notice of any written
demands for appraisal of any Company Shares, withdrawals of such demands, and
any other instruments that relate to such demands received by the Company and
(ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with
respect to demands for appraisal under the Delaware General Corporation Law
prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall not, except with the prior
written consent of the Buyer, make any payment with respect to any demands for
appraisal of Company Shares or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

     1.7 Exchange of Shares.

          (a) Prior to the Effective Time, the Buyer shall appoint the Exchange

                                      -4-



Company Stockholders as described in Section 1.5 and in accordance with this
Section 1.7 and (ii) establish a reserve for the issuance of Assumed Options. On
the Closing Date, the Buyer shall also deliver to the Exchange Agent cash for
any fractional shares as described in Section 1.8. As soon as practicable after
the Effective Time, the Buyer shall cause the Exchange Agent to send a notice
and a transmittal form to each holder of a Certificate advising such holder of
the effectiveness of the Merger and the procedure for surrendering to the
Exchange Agent such Certificate in exchange for the Initial Merger Shares
issuable to such holder pursuant to Section 1.5. Each holder of a Certificate,
upon proper surrender thereof to the Exchange Agent in accordance with the
instructions in such notice, shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor
(subject to any taxes required to be withheld) the Initial Merger Shares
issuable pursuant to Section 1.5 plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares, as
provided in Section 1.8 below. Until properly surrendered, each such Certificate
shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence only the right to receive a
certificate for the Initial Merger Shares issuable pursuant to Section 1.5.
Holders of Certificates shall not be entitled to receive certificates for the
Initial Merger Shares to which they would otherwise be entitled until such
Certificates are properly surrendered.

          (b) If any Initial Merger Shares are to be issued in the name of a
person other than the person in whose name the Certificate surrendered in
exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition to the issuance of such
Initial Merger Shares that (i) the Certificate so surrendered shall be
transferable, and shall be properly assigned, endorsed or accompanied by
appropriate stock powers, (ii) such transfer shall otherwise be proper and (iii)
the person requesting such transfer shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer
or other Taxes payable by reason of the foregoing or establish to the
satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Taxes have been paid or are not
required to be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Exchange Agent
nor any Party shall be liable to a holder of Company Shares for any Initial
Merger Shares issuable to such holder pursuant to Section 1.5 that are delivered
to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or
similar laws.

          (c) In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or
destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming
such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue
in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Initial Merger
Shares issuable in exchange therefor pursuant to Section 1.5. The Exchange Agent
or the Buyer may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance
thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to give
the Exchange Agent and/or the Buyer a bond in such sum as it may reasonably
direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange
Agent or the Buyer with respect to the Certificate alleged to have been lost,
stolen or destroyed.

          (d) No dividends or other distributions that are payable to the
holders of record of Buyer Common Shares as of a date on or after the Closing
Date shall be paid to former Company Stockholders entitled by reason of the
Merger to receive Initial Merger Shares until such holders surrender their
Certificates for certificates representing the Initial Merger Shares. Upon such
surrender, the Buyer shall pay or deliver to the persons in whose name the
certificates representing such Initial Merger Shares are issued any dividends or
other distributions that are payable to the holders of record of Buyer Common
Shares as of a date on or after the Closing Date and which were paid or
delivered between the Effective Time and the time of such surrender; provided
that no such person shall be entitled to receive any interest on such dividends
or other distributions.

     1.8 Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional
Merger Shares shall be issued to former Company Stockholders upon the surrender
for exchange of Certificates, and such former Company Stockholders shall not be
entitled to any voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or distributions
or other rights as a stockholder of the Buyer with respect to any fractional
Merger Shares that would have otherwise been issued to such former Company
Stockholders. In lieu of any fractional Merger Shares that would have otherwise
been issued, each former Company Stockholder that would


                                       -5-



have been entitled to receive a fractional Merger Share shall, upon proper
surrender of such person's Certificates, receive a cash payment equal to $50.37
multiplied by the fraction of a share that such Company Stockholder would
otherwise be entitled to receive.

     1.9 Options, Warrants and Restricted Stock.

          (a) As of the Effective Time, all Options, whether vested or unvested,
and any Option Plan, insofar as it relates to Options outstanding under such
Option Plan as of the Closing, shall be assumed by the Buyer, in such manner
that the Buyer (i) is a corporation "assuming a stock option in a transaction to
which Section 424(a) applies" within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code and
the regulations thereunder or (ii) to the extent Section 424 of the Code does
not apply to any such Options, would be such a corporation were Section 424 of
the Code applicable to such Options, and in accordance with the provisions set
forth below. Immediately after the Effective Time, each Option outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be deemed to constitute an option
to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such
Option at the Effective Time, such number of Buyer Common Shares as is equal to
the number of Common Shares subject to the unexercised portion of such Option
multiplied by the Common Conversion Ratio (with any fraction resulting from such
multiplication to be rounded down to the nearest whole number). The exercise
price per share of each such assumed Option shall be equal to the exercise price
of such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by the Common
Conversion Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent). The term,
exercisability, vesting schedule and all of the other terms of the Options shall
otherwise remain unchanged.

          (b) As of the Effective Time, all Warrants that were outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall be
assumed by the Buyer. Immediately after the Effective Time, each Warrant
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be deemed to
constitute a warrant to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were
applicable under such Warrant at the Effective Time, such number of shares of
Buyer Common Shares as is equal to the number of Common Shares subject to the
unexercised portion of such Warrant multiplied by the Common Conversion Ratio
(with any fraction resulting from such multiplication to be rounded down to the
nearest whole number). The exercise price per share of each such assumed Warrant
shall be equal to the exercise price of such Warrant immediately prior to the
Effective Time, divided by the Common Conversion Ratio (rounded up to the
nearest whole cent). The term, exercisability, vesting schedule, and all of the
other terms of the Warrant shall otherwise remain unchanged.

          (c) At the Effective Time, any Merger Consideration issued in
accordance with Section 1.5 with respect to any unvested Restricted Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain subject to the
same terms, restrictions and vesting schedule as in effect immediately prior to
the Effective Time, except to the extent by their terms as in effect as of the
date hereof such unvested Restricted Stock vests, or such other provisions
lapse, at the Effective Time; provided that to the extent any unvested
Restricted Stock is not held in escrow by the Company, the Company shall take
all necessary actions to require that all unvested Restricted Stock be held in
escrow by the Company to be released in such amounts and at such times as the
forfeiture provisions and repurchase rights lapse pursuant to the applicable
restricted stock agreement. The Company shall not take or permit any action that
would accelerate vesting of any unvested Restricted Stock, except to the extent
required by the terms of any restricted stock agreements in effect on the date
hereof. Copies of the relevant agreements governing such shares and the vesting
thereof have been provided or made available in the electronic data room at
least two business days prior to the execution of this Agreement to the Buyer.
All outstanding rights that the Company may hold immediately prior to the
Effective Time to repurchase unvested Restricted Stock shall be assigned to the
Buyer in the Merger and shall thereafter apply to, and be exercisable by the
Surviving Corporation or the Buyer with respect to, the Merger Consideration
into


                                       -6-



which such unvested Restricted Stock was converted pursuant to Section 1.5
hereof. The Company shall take all steps necessary to cause the foregoing
provisions of this Section 1.9(c) to occur.

          (d) As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Buyer or the
Surviving Corporation shall deliver to the holders of Options, Warrants and
Restricted Stock appropriate notices setting forth such holders' rights pursuant
to such Options, Warrants or Restricted Stock, as applicable, as amended by this
Section 1.9, and the agreements evidencing such Options, Warrants or Restricted
Stock, as applicable, and that such Options, Warrants or Restricted Stock shall
continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to the amendments
provided for in this Section 1.9 and such notice).

          (e) The Buyer shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for
issuance a sufficient number of Buyer Common Shares for delivery upon exercise
or vesting, as the case may be, of the Options, Warrants and Restricted Stock
assumed in accordance with this Section 1.9. Within 15 business days after the
Effective Time, the Buyer shall file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (or
any successor form) under the Securities Act with respect to all Buyer Common
Shares subject to the Options that may be registered on a Form S-8 (the "S-8
Registration Statement"), and shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to maintain
the effectiveness of the S-8 Registration Statement for so long as such Options
remain outstanding.

          (f) The Company shall obtain, prior to the Closing, the consent from
each holder of Options, Warrants or Restricted Stock to the amendment of such
Option, Warrant or Restricted Stock pursuant to this Section 1.9 (unless such
consent is not required under the terms of the applicable agreement, instrument
or plan).

     1.10 Adjustment Before and After the Closing. The Merger Consideration
shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

          (a) Not later than three business days prior to the Closing Date, the
Company shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer a balance sheet of the Company as
of a date (the "Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet Date") within five business
days of the Closing Date (the "Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet"). The
Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with the
provisions relating to the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet set forth in
this Section 1.10. The Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet shall be accompanied by
(i) all relevant backup materials and schedules, in detail reasonably acceptable
to the Buyer, and (ii) a statement setting forth the amount, if any, by which
the estimated Net Asset Value (the "Preliminary Net Asset Value") is greater
than, or less than, the Target Amount. In calculating the Preliminary Net Asset
Value, the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet shall include (A) as liabilities
the full amount of the transaction fees and expenses payable by the Company in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including legal
and accounting fees, to the extent such transaction fees and expenses have not
been paid prior to the date of the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet; (B)
accruals for commissions, bonuses, vacations, disputes, severance obligations
and retention and change in control payments; and (C) reserves in respect of
Taxes. Schedule II attached hereto reflects accruals and other items
contemplated by the preceding sentence, including estimated amounts in respect
thereof as of the date of this Agreement, that the Parties agree shall be
reflected on the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet. The Preliminary Closing
Balance Sheet shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the calculations
showing the basis for the determination of such sums. If the Preliminary Net
Asset Value on the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet is (i) greater than the
Target Amount, then the difference shall be added to the Base Purchase Price, or
(ii) less than the Target Amount, then the difference shall be deducted from the
Base Purchase Price (the Base Purchase Price, as so adjusted, is referred to as
the "Preliminary Base Purchase Price"). If the Preliminary Base Purchase Price
is:


                                       -7-



               (i) less than the Base Purchase Price, the Merger Consideration
shall be reduced by a number of Buyer Common Shares equivalent to the amount of
the deficiency divided by $50.37; provided however, that no adjustment shall be
made pursuant to this Section 1.10(a)(i) unless the Preliminary Net Asset Value
is less than the Target Amount by an amount greater than $100,000; and

               (ii) greater than the Base Purchase Price, the Merger
Consideration shall be increased by a number of Buyer Common Shares equivalent
to the amount of the surplus divided by $50.37; provided however, that no
adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 1.10(a)(ii) unless the
Preliminary Net Asset Value is greater than the Target Amount by an amount
greater than $100,000.

          (b) Not later than 30 calendar days after the Closing Date, the Buyer
shall deliver to the Representative the Closing Balance Sheet. The Closing
Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently
with the Company's past practices (to the extent such past practices are
consistent with GAAP), except that the Closing Balance Sheet may exclude all
footnotes, subject to the adjustments set forth in this Section 1.10 (which
shall be in addition to and not in lieu of those required by GAAP) and shall be
certified as such by the Buyer.

          (c) The Closing Balance Sheet delivered pursuant to paragraph (b)
above shall be accompanied by (i) all relevant backup materials and schedules,
in detail reasonably acceptable to the Representative, and (ii) a statement
setting forth the amount, if any, by which the Net Asset Value is greater than,
or less than, the Preliminary Net Asset Value. In calculating the Net Asset
Value, the Closing Balance Sheet shall include as (A) liabilities the full
amount of the transaction fees and expenses payable by the Company in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including legal and
accounting fees, to the extent such transaction fees and expenses were not paid
prior to the Effective Time; (B) accruals for commissions, bonuses, vacations,
disputes, severance obligations and retention and change in control payments;
and (C) reserves in respect of Taxes. Schedule II attached hereto reflects
accruals and other items contemplated by the preceding sentence, including but
not limited to, estimated amounts in respect thereof as of the date of this
Agreement, that the Parties agree shall be reflected in the Closing Balance
Sheet. The Closing Balance Sheet shall be accompanied by a statement setting
forth the calculations showing the basis for the determination of such sums.

          (d) In the event that the Representative disputes the Closing Balance
Sheet or the calculation of the Closing Net Asset Value Adjustment, the
Representative shall notify the Buyer in writing (the "Dispute Notice") of the
amount, nature and basis of such dispute, within 30 calendar days after delivery
of the Closing Balance Sheet. Any such Dispute Notice shall specify those items
or amounts as to which the Representative disagrees, and the Representative
shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the
Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of the Closing Net Asset Value
Adjustment delivered pursuant to Sections 1.10(b) and 1.10(c). In the event of
such a dispute, the Buyer and the Representative shall use their Reasonable Best
Efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to
determine the Closing Net Asset Value Adjustment, which amount shall not be less
than the Buyer's calculation delivered pursuant to Section 1.10(c) nor more than
the Representative's calculation delivered pursuant to this Section 1.10(d). If
the Buyer and the Representative are unable to resolve the dispute within 30
calendar days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, then any remaining items in
dispute shall be submitted to an independent nationally recognized accounting
firm selected in writing by the Representative and the Buyer (which shall not
have any material relationship with the Buyer, the Representative or any
Principal Stockholder) or, if the Representative and the Buyer fail or refuse to
select a firm within 10 calendar days after written request therefor by the
Representative or the Buyer, such an independent nationally recognized
accounting firm shall be selected in accordance with the rules of the Boston,
Massachusetts office of the AAA (the "Neutral Accountant"). All determinations
and calculations pursuant to this paragraph (d) shall consider only those items
or amounts in the Closing Balance Sheet or the Buyer's calculation of Closing
Net Asset


                                       -8-



Value as to which the Representative has disagreed, shall be in writing and
shall be delivered to the Buyer and the Representative as promptly as
practicable. The determination of the Neutral Accountant as to the resolution of
any dispute shall be binding and conclusive upon all Parties. A judgment on the
determination made by the Neutral Accountant pursuant to this Section 1.10 may
be entered in and enforced by any court having jurisdiction thereover.

          (e) The fees and expenses of the Neutral Accountant in connection with
the resolution of disputes pursuant to paragraph (d) above shall be shared
equally by the Company Stockholders, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the
other hand; provided that if the Neutral Accountant determines that one such
party has adopted a position or positions with respect to the Closing Balance
Sheet or the calculation of the Closing Net Asset Value Adjustment that is
frivolous or clearly without merit, the Neutral Accountant may, in its
discretion, assign a greater portion of any such fees and expenses to such
party.

          (f) Immediately upon the expiration of the 30-calendar day period for
giving the Dispute Notice, if no such notice is given, or upon notification by
the Representative to the Buyer, that no such notice will be given, or
immediately upon the resolution of disputes, if any, pursuant to this Section
1.10, the Preliminary Base Purchase Price shall be adjusted as follows (as so
adjusted, the "Adjusted Base Purchase Price"):

               (i) If the Closing Net Asset Value Adjustment is negative, such
deficiency shall be deducted from the Preliminary Base Purchase Price to obtain
the Adjusted Base Purchase Price, and the Buyer shall be entitled to recover
such deficiency pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement;

               (ii) If the Closing Net Asset Value Adjustment is zero, the
Adjusted Base Purchase Price shall be equal to the Preliminary Base Purchase
Price; and

               (iii) If the Closing Net Asset Value Adjustment is positive, such
surplus shall be added to the Preliminary Base Purchase Price to obtain the
Adjusted Base Purchase Price, and the Buyer shall deliver to the Exchange Agent
a certificate representing a number of Buyer Common Shares equivalent to the
amount of the surplus divided by $50.37. Such Buyer Common Shares shall be
distributed by the Exchange Agent to the Company Stockholders on a pro rata
basis in accordance with the terms and conditions of Sections 1.5(d) and 1.6(a),
as applicable, including the deposit of 12.5% of such additional Buyer Common
Shares in escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

     1.11 Escrow Arrangements. On the Closing Date, the Buyer shall instruct the
Exchange Agent to deliver to the Escrow Agent (i) a certificate (issued in the
name of the Escrow Agent or its nominee) representing the Escrow Shares issuable
pursuant to Section 1.5(h) and (ii) a certificate (issued in the name of the
Escrow Agent or its nominee) representing the Representative Shares issuable
pursuant to Section 1.5(h), in the case of the Escrow Shares, for the purpose of
(A) providing security for any adjustment to the amount of the Preliminary Base
Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.10 and (B) securing the indemnification
obligations of the Company Stockholders set forth in Article VI, and in the case
of the Representative Shares, for the purpose of securing funds to reimburse the
Representative for fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance
of the Representative's obligations under this Agreement and the Escrow
Agreement. The Escrow Shares and the Representative Shares shall be held by the
Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof. The
Escrow Shares and the Representative Shares shall be held as a trust fund and
shall not be subject to any lien, attachment, trustee process or any other
judicial process of any creditor of any party, and shall be held and disbursed
solely for the purposes and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow
Agreement.

     1.12 Representative.


                                       -9-



          (a) In order to efficiently administer the transactions contemplated
hereby, including (i) the determination of the Net Asset Value and Adjusted Base
Purchase Price, (ii) the waiver of any condition to the obligations of the
Company Stockholders to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and
(iii) the defense and/or settlement of any claims for which the Company
Stockholders may be required to indemnify the Buyer and/or the Surviving
Corporation pursuant to Article VI hereof, the Principal Stockholders, by their
execution of this Agreement, and the Other Company Stockholders, by the approval
of the Merger and adoption of this Agreement and/or their acceptance of any
Buyer Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement, hereby designate the
Representative as their representative, attorney-in-fact and agent.

          (b) The Principal Stockholders, by their execution of this Agreement,
and the Other Company Stockholders, by the approval of the Merger and adoption
of this Agreement and/or their acceptance of any Buyer Common Shares pursuant to
this Agreement, (A) hereby authorize the Representative (i) to make all
decisions relating to the determination of the Net Asset Value, the Adjusted
Base Purchase Price and any increase or decrease in the Merger Consideration
pursuant to Section 1.10, (ii) to take all action necessary in connection with
the waiver of any condition to the obligations of the Company and the Company
Stockholders to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, or the defense
and/or settlement of any claims for which the Company Stockholders may be
required to indemnify the Buyer and/or the Surviving Corporation pursuant to
Article VI hereof, (iii) to give and receive all notices required to be given
under the Agreement, and (iv) to take any and all additional action as is
contemplated to be taken by or on behalf of the Company Stockholders by the
terms of this Agreement and (B) approve the Escrow Agreement and all of the
arrangements relating thereto, including the placement of the Escrow Shares and
the Representative Shares in the escrow established pursuant to Section 1.11.

          (c) In the event that the Representative becomes unable to perform its
responsibilities hereunder or resigns from such position, the Company
Stockholders (acting by the vote of the Company Stockholders who immediately
prior to the Effective Time held at least a majority of the outstanding Company
Shares held by all Company Stockholders (voting on an as-converted to Common
Share basis)) shall select another representative to fill the vacancy of the
Representative initially chosen by the Company Stockholders, and such
substituted representative shall be deemed to be the Representative for all
purposes of this Agreement and the documents delivered pursuant hereto.

          (d) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Representative,
including without limitation any agreement between the Representative and the
Buyer relating to the determination of the Net Asset Value and the Adjusted Base
Purchase Price or the defense or settlement of any claims for which the Company
Stockholders may be required to indemnify the Buyer and/or the Surviving
Corporation pursuant to Article VI hereof shall constitute a decision, act,
consent or instruction of all Principal Stockholders and all Other Company
Stockholders and shall be binding and conclusive upon each of such Persons and
the Buyer, Surviving Corporation and Escrow Agent may rely upon any such
decision, act, consent or instruction as being the decision, act, consent or
instructions of each and every such Person. The Buyer, Surviving Corporation and
Escrow Agent 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 Representative.

          (e) At any time prior to the termination of the Escrow Agreement, the
Representative may deliver to the Escrow Agent and the Buyer a notice, executed
by the Representative (a "Reimbursement Notice"), which shall (i) state that the
Representative and/or any of his or her agents or representatives has reasonably
paid or incurred (or reasonably expects to pay or incur during the Escrow
Period) fees and disbursements in connection with the performance of the
Representative's obligations under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement,
including, but not limited to, the fees and expenses of


                                      -10-



legal counsel (a "Reimbursement Item"), (ii) state the aggregate amount of such
Reimbursement Item and the amount of the Representative Shares necessary to
satisfy the amount specified in the Reimbursement Item, and (iii) specify in
reasonable detail the nature and amount of each individual Reimbursement Item.
The Escrow Agent shall, promptly upon receipt of such Reimbursement Notice,
transfer to the Representative such amount as is equal to the lesser of (A) the
number of Representative Shares claimed in the Reimbursement Notice or (B) the
amount of any remaining Representative Shares. Within three business days
following the termination of the Escrow Agreement, to the extent there are
Representative Shares remaining at that time that have not been distributed to
the Representative for reimbursement pursuant to this Section 1.12(e), the
Escrow Agent shall release the remaining Representative Shares to the Exchange
Agent for distribution to the Company Stockholders, in accordance with the terms
of the Escrow Agreement.

          (f) To the extent the Representative is entitled to be reimbursed for
a Reimbursement Item pursuant to Section 1.12(e) above and has not been
reimbursed for such Reimbursement Item pursuant to Section 1.12(e) above, then
immediately prior to the termination of the Escrow Agreement and prior to
delivery of any Escrow Shares to the Company Stockholders pursuant to the Escrow
Agreement, and to the extent there are Escrow Shares remaining at that time that
are not subject to Claimed Amounts, the Representative shall be entitled to
receive an amount of Escrow Shares equal to the Reimbursement Item that has not
been reimbursed pursuant to Section 1.12(e) above, or if there are not enough
Escrow Shares remaining at such time, then the Representative shall be entitled
to such lesser amount of Escrow Shares.

          (g) By his, her or its execution of this Agreement, each Principal
Stockholder, and by his or her or its approval of the Merger and adoption of
this Agreement, and/or their acceptance of any Buyer Common Shares pursuant to
this Agreement, each Other Company Stockholder, agrees that:

               (i) the Buyer shall be able to rely conclusively on the
instructions and decisions of the Representative as to the determination of the
Net Asset Value and the Adjusted Base Purchase Price, the settlement of any
claims for indemnification by the Buyer and/or the Surviving Corporation
pursuant to Article VI hereof or any other actions required or permitted to be
taken by the Representative hereunder, and no party shall have any cause of
action against the Buyer for any action taken by the Buyer in reliance upon the
instructions or decisions of the Representative;

               (ii) no Company Stockholder shall have any cause of action
against the Representative for any action taken, decision made or instruction
given by the Representative under this Agreement, except for fraud or willful
breach of this Agreement by the Representative;

               (iii) notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 1.12(e)
and (f), the Representative shall be entitled to indemnification from the
Company Stockholders for all fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in such
capacity in connection with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and each
Company Stockholder agrees to indemnify the Representative for all such amounts
incurred in excess of the Representative Shares or amounts received pursuant to
Section 1.12(f); provided however, that the liability of each Company
Stockholder shall not exceed 125% of such Company Stockholder's pro rata share
(based upon the ratio that the aggregate Merger Consideration payable to such
Company Stockholder bears to the aggregate Merger Consideration) of such amount.

               (iv) the provisions of this Section 1.12 are independent and
severable, are irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall be enforceable
notwithstanding any rights or remedies that any Company Stockholder may have in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;


                                      -11-



               (v) remedies available at law for any breach of the provisions of
this Section 1.12 are inadequate; therefore, the Buyer and the Surviving
Corporation shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief
without the necessity of proving damages if either the Buyer and/or the
Surviving Corporation brings an action to enforce the provisions of this Section
1.12; and

               (vi) the provisions of this Section 1.12 shall be binding upon
the executors, heirs, legal representatives, personal representatives,
successors and permitted assigns of each Company Stockholder, and any references
in this Agreement to a Company Stockholder or the Company Stockholders shall
mean and include the successors to the Company Stockholder's rights hereunder,
whether pursuant to testamentary disposition, the laws of descent and
distribution or otherwise.

     1.13 Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws

          (a) The Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the
Company shall be amended at the Effective Time to read in its entirely

provided, however, that for a period of six years following the Closing, for so
long as the Surviving Corporation remains a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Buyer, the Buyer shall cause the indemnification provisions contained in the
By-laws of the Surviving Corporation to be the same as the indemnification
provisions contained in the By-laws of the Company as in effect immediately
prior to the Closing.

     1.14 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation.

          (a) The directors of the Transitory Subsidiary immediately prior to

each to hold office in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and
By-laws of the Surviving Corporation.

          (b) The officers of the Transitory Subsidiary immediately prior to the
Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation, each

cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except as provided herein or by
law.

     1.16 Closing of Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer

warranty or constitute an amendment of any representation, warranty or statement

a stockholder vote the right of any "disqualified individual" (as defined in
Section 280G(c) of the Code) to receive any and all payments (or other benefits)
contingent on the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code) to the
extent necessary so


                                      -42-


that no payment received by such "disqualified individual" would be a "parachute
payment" under Section 280G(b) of the Code (determined without regard to Section
280G(b)(4) of the Code), in a manner that satisfies the stockholder approval
requirements under Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and regulations promulgated
thereunder. Such vote shall establish the "disqualified individual's" right to
the payment or other compensation. In addition, before the vote is submitted to
stockholders, the Company shall provide adequate disclosure to Company
Stockholders that hold voting Company Shares of all material facts concerning
all payments that, but for such vote, could be deemed "parachute payments" to a
"disqualified individual" under Section 280G of the Code in a manner that
satisfies Section 280G(b)(5)(B)(ii) of the Code and regulations promulgated
thereunder. The Buyer and its counsel shall have the right to review and comment
on all documents to be delivered to the Company Stockholders in connection with
such vote.

     4.12 Tax Treatment.

          (a) None of the Buyer, the Transitory Subsidiary, or the Company shall
knowingly take any action, fail to take any action, or cause or permit any
action to be taken or to fail to be taken that (alone or in combination with
other of its actions or failures to take actions) could reasonably be expected
to cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of
Section 368(a) of the Code.

          (b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Buyer, the
Transitory Subsidiary and the Company shall file all of its Tax Returns on the
basis that the Merger qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of
Section 368(a) of the Code.

     4.13 FIRPTA. Prior to the Closing, (i) the Company shall deliver to the
Buyer and to the Internal Revenue Service notices that the Company Shares are

Sections 897 and 1445 of the Code, or (ii) each of the Company Stockholders
shall deliver to the Buyer certifications that they are not foreign persons in
accordance with the Treasury Regulations under Section 1445 of the Code. If the
Buyer does not receive either the notices or the certifications described above
on or before the Closing Date, the Buyer, the Transitory Subsidiary, or the
Exchange Agent shall be permitted to withhold from the payments to be made
pursuant to this Agreement any required withholding Tax under Section 1445 of
the Code.

are reasonably acceptable to the Buyer. The cost of such policy shall either be
paid in full by the Company prior to the Closing or fully accrued for on both
the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Balance Sheet. The Buyer
shall not, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation not to, take any action to
terminate or modify such policy.

Principal Stockholders (which represent a majority of the outstanding
Registrable Securities (as defined in the Rights Agreement)) hereby terminate
the Rights Agreement and acknowledge that no party shall have any rights
(including any registration rights) or obligations under the Rights Agreement
from and after the Effective Time.


                                      -43-

from the Company's 401(k) Plan to roll such eligible rollover distribution,
including any associated loans, as part of any lump sum distribution into an

other provision of this Agreement is intended to, or shall, confer any rights,
benefits, remedies, obligations, or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other
than the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, including
any right to continued employment or to assert a claim under this Section 4.19.

     6.2 Indemnification Claims.


                                      -48-



          (a) The Buyer shall give written notification to the Representative of
the commencement of any Third Party Action. Such notification shall be given
within 20 calendar days after receipt by the Buyer of notice of such Third Party
Action, and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent then known by the
Buyer) the facts constituting the basis for such Third Party Action and the
amount of the claimed damages. No delay or failure on the part of the Buyer in
so notifying the Representative shall relieve the Company Stockholders of any
liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or
liability caused by or arising out of such delay or failure. Except as otherwise
provided in Section 8.4(b) with respect to Tax Proceedings, within 20 calendar
days after delivery of such notification, the Representative may, upon written
notice thereof to the Buyer, assume control of the defense of such Third Party
Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer; provided that (i) the
Representative may only assume control of such defense if (A) it acknowledges in
writing to the Buyer on behalf of all of the Company Stockholders that any
damages, fines, costs or other liabilities that may be assessed against the
Buyer in connection with such Third Party Action constitute Damages for which
the Buyer shall be indemnified pursuant to this Article VI, provided however,
that in the case of a Third Party Action in which liability is asserted by the
claimant in such Third Party Action against both the Company and the Buyer for
independent actions, such acknowledgment of liability shall only be for such
portion of the liability as is determined by the jury, court or other trier of
fact in such Third Party Action to be the Company's liability; and (B) the ad
damnum in such Third Party Action, taken together with the estimated costs of
defense thereof and the Claimed Amount with respect to any unresolved claims for
indemnification then pending, (1) with respect to any claims which, pursuant to
Section 6.4, are limited to the Indemnification Escrow Shares, is less than or
equal to the current balance of the Indemnification Escrow Shares (valued at
$50.37 per share), or (2) with respect to any claims which, pursuant to Section
6.4, are not limited to the Indemnification Escrow Shares, is less than or equal
to the current balance of the Indemnification Escrow Shares (valued at $50.37
per share) plus the aggregate additional liability of the Company Stockholders
under Section 6.4(c) with respect to such claims, and (ii) the Representative
may not assume control of the defense of any Third Party Action involving
criminal liability or in which equitable relief is sought against the Buyer. If
the Representative does not, or is not permitted under the terms hereof to, so
assume control of the defense of a Third Party Action, the Buyer shall control
such defense. The Non-controlling Party may participate in such defense at its
own expense. The Controlling Party shall keep the Non-controlling Party advised
of the status of such Third Party Action and the defense thereof and shall
consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with
respect thereto. The Non-controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party
with such information as it may have with respect to such Third Party Action
(including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have
been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or
other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate
with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third Party Action.
The fees and expenses of counsel to the Buyer with respect to a Third Party
Action shall be considered Damages for purposes of this Agreement if (i) the
Buyer controls the defense of such Third Party Action pursuant to the terms of
this Section 6.2(a) or (ii) the Representative assumes control of such defense
and the Buyer reasonably concludes after advice of counsel that the Company
Stockholders and the Buyer have conflicting interests or different defenses
available with respect to such Third Party Action. Neither the Company
Stockholders nor the Representative shall agree to any settlement of, or the
entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Action without the prior
written consent of the Buyer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed; provided that the consent of the Buyer shall not be
required if the Representative, on behalf of all of the Company Stockholders,
agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or
judgment and such settlement or judgment includes a complete release of the
Buyer from further liability and has no other adverse effect on the Buyer.
Except as provided in Section 6.2(f) below, the Buyer shall not agree to any
settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third Party
Action without the prior written consent of the Representative, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.


                                      -49-



          (b) In order to seek indemnification under this Article VI, the Buyer
shall deliver a Claim Notice to the Representative.

          (c) Within 20 calendar days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the
Representative shall deliver to the Buyer a Response, in which the
Representative, on behalf of the Company Stockholders, shall: (i) agree that the
Buyer is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount (in which case the
Response shall be accompanied by a letter instructing the Escrow Agent to
disburse to the Buyer from the Escrow Shares a number of shares that if
multiplied by a value of $50.37 per share will equal the Claimed Amount), (ii)
agree that the Buyer is entitled to receive the Agreed Amount (in which case the
Response shall be accompanied by a letter instructing the Escrow Agent to
disburse to the Buyer from the Escrow Shares a number of shares that if
multiplied by a value of $50.37 per share will equal the Agreed Amount) or (iii)
dispute that the Buyer is entitled to receive any of the Claimed Amount. The
Representative may contest the payment of all or a portion of the Claimed Amount
only based upon a good faith belief that all or such portion of the Claimed
Amount does not constitute Damages for which the Buyer is entitled to
indemnification under this Article VI. If no Response is delivered by the
Representative within such 20-calendar day period, the Company Stockholders
shall be deemed to have agreed that all of the Claimed Amount is owed to the
Buyer. Acceptance by the Buyer of partial payment of any Claimed Amount shall be
without prejudice to the Buyer's right to claim the balance of any such Claimed
Amount.

          (d) During the 30-calendar day period following the delivery of a
Response that reflects a Dispute, the Representative and the Buyer shall use
good faith efforts to resolve the Dispute. If the Dispute is not resolved within
such 30-calendar day period, the Representative and the Buyer shall discuss in
good faith the submission of the Dispute to binding arbitration, and if the
Representative and the Buyer agree in writing to submit the Dispute to such
arbitration, then the provisions of Section 6.2(e) shall become effective with
respect to such Dispute. The provisions of this Section 6.2(d) shall not
obligate the Representative and the Buyer to submit to arbitration or any other
alternative dispute resolution procedure with respect to any Dispute, and in the
absence of an agreement by the Representative and the Buyer to arbitrate a
Dispute, such Dispute shall be resolved in a state or federal court sitting in
the State of New York, in accordance with Section 12.11. If the Buyer is seeking
to enforce the claim that is the subject of the Dispute pursuant to the Escrow
Agreement, the Representative and the Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow Agent,
promptly following the resolution of the Dispute (whether by mutual agreement,
arbitration, judicial decision or otherwise), a written notice executed by both
parties instructing the Escrow Agent as to what (if any) portion of the Escrow
Shares shall be distributed to the Buyer (which notice shall be consistent with
the terms of the resolution of the Dispute).

          (e) If, as set forth in Section 6.2(d), the Buyer and the
Representative agree to submit any Dispute to binding arbitration, the
arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator (the "Arbitrator") in
accordance with the JAMS Rules in effect from time to time and the following
provisions:

               (i) In the event of any conflict between the JAMS Rules in effect
from time to time and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this
Agreement shall prevail and be controlling;

               (ii) Either party shall commence the arbitration by filing a
written submission with the New York, New York office of JAMS in accordance with
the JAMS Rules (or any successor provision);

               (iii) All depositions or other discovery shall be conducted
pursuant to the applicable U.S. federal rules relating to discovery;


                                      -50-



               (iv) Not later than 30 calendar days after the conclusion of the
arbitration hearing, the Arbitrator shall prepare and distribute to the parties
a writing setting forth the arbitral award and the Arbitrator's reasons
therefor. Any award rendered by the Arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and
binding upon the parties, and judgment thereon may be entered and enforced in
any court of competent jurisdiction (subject to Section 12.11);

               (v) The Arbitrator shall have no power or authority, under the
JAMS Rules or otherwise, to (x) modify or disregard any provision of this
Agreement, including the provisions of this Section 6.2(e), or (y) address or
resolve any issue not submitted by the parties; and

               (vi) In connection with any arbitration proceeding pursuant to
this Agreement, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses, except that
the fees and costs of the JAMS and the Arbitrator, the costs and expenses of
obtaining the facility where the arbitration hearing is held, and such other
costs and expenses as the Arbitrator may determine to be directly related to the
conduct of the arbitration and appropriately borne jointly by the parties (which
shall not include any party's attorneys' fees or costs, witness fees (if any),
costs of investigation and similar expenses) shall be shared equally by the
Buyer and the Company Stockholders.

          (f) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 6.2, if a
third party customer or vendor asserts (other than by means of a lawsuit) that
the Buyer is liable to such third party for a monetary or other obligation which
may constitute or result in Damages, not in excess of $165,000 individually or
$495,000 in the aggregate, for which the Buyer may be entitled to
indemnification pursuant to this Article VI, and the Buyer reasonably determines
that it has a valid business reason to fulfill such obligation, then (i) the
Buyer shall be entitled to satisfy such obligation, without prior notice to or
consent from the Representative or the Company Stockholders, (ii) the Buyer may
subsequently make a claim for indemnification in accordance with the provisions
of this Article VI, and (iii) the Buyer shall be reimbursed, in accordance with
the provisions of this Article VI, for any such Damages for which it is entitled
to indemnification pursuant to this Article VI (subject to the right of the
Representative, on behalf of the Company Stockholders, to dispute the Buyer's
entitlement to indemnification, or the amount for which it is entitled to
indemnification, under the terms of this Article VI).

          (g) The Representative shall have full power and authority on behalf
of each Company Stockholders to take any and all actions on behalf of, execute
any and all instruments on behalf of, and execute or waive any and all rights
of, the Company Stockholders under this Article VI. The Representative shall
have no liability to any Company Stockholders for any action taken or omitted on
behalf of the Company Stockholders pursuant to this Article VI.

     6.3 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

          (a) Unless otherwise specified in this Section 6.3 or elsewhere in
this Agreement, all provisions of this Agreement shall survive the Closing and
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall continue
forever in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. Except for
claims based on fraud or knowing misrepresentation, all representations and
warranties that are covered by the indemnification obligations in Section 6.1(a)
shall expire on the date 18 months following the Closing Date; provided,
however, the representations and warranties set forth in: (i) Sections 2.9, 2.24
and 2.25 shall survive for the duration of the period ending 30 calendar days
following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, (ii) Section
2.14 shall survive for a period of three years following the Closing Date and
(iii) Sections 2.2, 2.3 and 2.30 shall survive indefinitely. All matters
described in this Section 6.3(a) that survive the expiration of the 18-month
escrow period are collectively referred to herein as "Permitted Matters."


                                      -51-



          (b) If the Buyer delivers to the Representative, before expiration of
a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, either a Claim Notice based
upon a breach of such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or an
Expected Claim Notice based upon a breach of such representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement then the applicable representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement shall survive until, but only for purposes of, the resolution of the
matter covered by such notice. If the legal proceeding or written claim with
respect to which an Expected Claim Notice has been given is definitively
withdrawn or resolved in favor of the Buyer, the Buyer shall promptly so notify
the Representative. The rights to indemnification set forth in this Article VI
shall not be affected by (i) any investigation conducted by or on behalf of the
Buyer or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) by the Buyer,
whether before or after the date of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with
respect to the inaccuracy or noncompliance with any representation, warranty,
covenant or obligation which is the subject of indemnification hereunder, or
(ii) any waiver by the Buyer of any closing condition relating to the accuracy
of representations and warranties or the performance of or compliance with
agreements and covenants.

     6.4 Limitations.

          (a) With respect to claims for Damages arising under Section 6.1(a),
the Company Stockholders shall not be liable for any such Damages until the
aggregate amount of all such Damages exceeds $750,000 (at which point the
Company Stockholders shall become liable for all Damages under Section 6.1(a),
and not just amounts in excess of $750,000); provided that the limitation set
forth in this sentence shall not apply to (i) claims based on fraud or knowing
misrepresentation or (ii) any claim pursuant to Section 6.1(a) relating to a
breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.2 (other
than the last sentence of paragraph (b) thereof), 2.3, 2.9, 2.14, 2.24, 2.25 or
2.30.

          (b) Except for claims based on fraud or knowing misrepresentation,
claims relating to any of the Permitted Matters and claims arising under Article
VIII, (i) the Indemnification Escrow Shares under the Escrow Agreement shall be
the exclusive means for the Buyer to collect any Damages for which it is
entitled to indemnification under Article VI subsections 6.1(a), 6.1(b), 6.1(c),
6.1(d), 6.1(e) or 6.1(i) from any Company Stockholder and (ii) the Identified
Contract Shares under the Escrow Agreement shall be the exclusive means for the
Buyer to collect any Damages for which it is entitled to indemnification under
Article VI subsections 6.1(f), 6.1(g) or 6.1(h) from any Company Stockholder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Section 6.4(c), the Buyer shall
not attempt to collect any Damages directly from any Company Stockholder unless
there are insufficient unclaimed Escrow Shares remaining to satisfy such Damages
pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

          (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except for claims
based on fraud or knowing misrepresentation, the aggregate liability of each
Company Stockholder for Damages under this Article VI for any claims relating to
any of the Permitted Matters and any claims arising under Article VIII shall not
exceed the lesser of (i) the value of 100% of the Merger Consideration received
by such Company Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement
(calculated at $50.37 per share) and (ii) 125% of such Company Stockholder's pro
rata share (based upon the ratio that the aggregate Merger Consideration payable
to such Company Stockholder bears to the aggregate Merger Consideration) of such
Damages. In no event shall the aggregate liability of the Company Stockholders
for Damages relating to a breach of the representations and warranties set forth
in Section 2.14 exceed an amount equal to the value of the Indemnification
Escrow Shares (calculated at $50.37 per share).

          (d) No Company Stockholder shall have any right of contribution
against the Company or the Surviving Corporation with respect to any breach by
the Company of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements.


                                      -52-



          (e) Except with respect to claims based on fraud or knowing
misrepresentation and claims arising under Article VIII, after the Closing, the
rights of the Buyer under this Article VI shall be the exclusive remedy of the
Buyer with respect to claims resulting from or relating to any
misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to perform any covenant or
agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE VII

within 10 business days following the Closing, the Stockholder Registration
Statement. The Buyer shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to cause the
Stockholder Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon
as practicable. The Buyer shall cause the Stockholder Registration Statement to
remain effective until the date one year after the Closing Date or such earlier
time as all of the Merger Shares covered by the Stockholder Registration
Statement have been sold pursuant thereto.


                                      -53-



     7.2 Limitations on Registration Rights.

          (a) The Buyer may, by written notice to the Company Stockholders, (i)
delay the filing or effectiveness of the Stockholder Registration Statement or
(ii) suspend the Stockholder Registration Statement after effectiveness and
require that the Company Stockholders (which, for the purposes of this Article
VII exclusively, shall also be deemed to include holders of Warrants)
immediately cease sales of shares pursuant to the Stockholder Registration
Statement, in the event that (A) the Buyer is engaged in any activity or
transaction or preparations or negotiations for any activity or transaction that
the Buyer desires to keep confidential for business reasons, if the Buyer
determines in good faith that the public disclosure requirements imposed on the
Buyer under the Securities Act in connection with the Stockholder Registration
Statement would require disclosure of such activity, transaction, preparations
or negotiations, or (B) the Buyer fails to meet the SEC requirements, as set
forth in the General Instructions to Form S-3, for use of the Stockholder
Registration Statement.

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

     7.3 Registration Procedures.

          (a) In connection with the filing by the Buyer of the Stockholder
Registration Statement, the Buyer shall furnish to each Company Stockholder a
copy of the prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with
the requirements of the Securities Act.

          (b) The Buyer shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to register or
qualify the Merger Shares covered by the Stockholder Registration Statement
under the securities laws of each state of the United States; provided, however,
that the Buyer shall not be required in connection with this paragraph (b) to
qualify as a foreign corporation or execute a general consent to service of
process in any jurisdiction.

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

          (d) The Buyer shall pay the expenses incurred by it in complying with
its obligations under this Article VII, including all registration and filing
fees, exchange listing fees, fees and expenses of counsel for the Buyer, and
fees and expenses of accountants for the Buyer, but excluding (i) any


                                      -54-



brokerage fees, selling commissions or underwriting discounts incurred by the
Company Stockholders in connection with sales under the Stockholder Registration
Statement and (ii) the fees and expenses of any counsel retained by Company
Stockholders in excess of $5,000.

     7.4 Requirements of Company Stockholders. The Buyer shall not be required
to include any Merger Shares in the Stockholder Registration Statement unless:

          (a) the Company Stockholder owning such shares or entitled to receive
Buyer Common Shares upon exercise of a Warrant, as the case may be, furnishes to
the Buyer in writing such information regarding such Company Stockholder and the
proposed sale of Merger Shares by such Company Stockholder as the Buyer may
reasonably request in writing in connection with the Stockholder Registration
Statement or as shall be required in connection therewith by the SEC or any
state securities law authorities;

          (b) such Company Stockholder shall have provided to the Buyer its
written agreement:

               (i) to indemnify the Buyer and each of its directors and officers
against, and hold the Buyer and each of its directors and officers harmless
from, any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (including reasonable
attorneys fees) to which the Buyer or such directors and officers may become
subject by reason of any statement or omission in the Stockholder Registration
Statement made in reliance upon, or in conformity with, a written statement by
such Company Stockholder furnished pursuant to this Section 7.4; provided that
such Company Stockholder's liability pursuant to this Section 7.4(b)(i) is
limited to the aggregate amount of proceeds received by such Company Stockholder
pursuant to the Registration Statement; and

               (ii) to report to the Buyer sales made pursuant to the
Stockholder Registration Statement.

     7.5 Indemnification. The Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each
Company Stockholder whose shares are included in the Stockholder Registration
Statement against any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities to which
such Company Stockholder may become subject by reason of any untrue statement of
a material fact contained in the Stockholder Registration Statement or any
omission to state therein a fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses,
claims, damages, expenses or liabilities arise out of or are based upon
information furnished to the Buyer by or on behalf of a Company Stockholder for
use in the Stockholder Registration Statement. The Buyer shall have the right to
assume the defense and settlement of any claim or suit for which the Buyer may
be responsible for indemnification under this Section 7.5.

     7.6 Assignment of Rights. A Company Stockholder may not assign any of its
rights under this Article VII except in connection with the transfer of some or
all of his, her or its Merger Shares to a child or spouse, or trust for their
benefit or, in the case of a partnership, limited liability company or
corporation, to its partners, members or stockholders, respectively, pursuant to
a pro rata distribution of its Merger Shares, provided each such transferee
agrees in a written instrument delivered to the Buyer to be bound by the
provisions of this Article VII.

     7.7 Lock-up Agreements.

          (a) The Company shall deliver to the Buyer at the Closing the written
undertaking of (i) each key employee listed on Schedule III attached hereto not

as of the date hereof is the holder of 7,237,825 or more Total Company Shares,

Shares issued to such Company Stockholder at the Closing (or issuable to such
Company Stockholder upon the exercise of any Options or Warrants held by such
Company Stockholder and assumed by the Buyer at the Closing) may be sold or
otherwise transferred during the period commencing 91 calendar days following
the Closing and ending on the date that is 180 calendar days following the
Closing, and (C) the final one-fourth of the Buyer Common Shares not
constituting Escrow Shares issued to such Company Stockholder at the Closing (or

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                   TAX MATTERS

     8.1 Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns; Payment of Taxes.

          (a) The Representative shall cause to be prepared and timely filed all
Tax Returns of the Company and each Subsidiary required to be filed (taking into
account extensions) prior to the Closing Date.

          (b) The Buyer shall prepare and timely file or shall cause to be
prepared and timely filed all Tax Returns not filed on or before the Closing
Date, including Tax Returns which were required to be filed before the Closing
but were not filed and all other Tax Returns with respect to the Company or any
Subsidiary or in respect of their businesses, assets or operations. The Buyer
shall make all payments required with respect to any such Tax Returns; provided,
however, that the Company Stockholders shall promptly reimburse the Buyer to the
extent any payment the Buyer is required to make relates to the operations of
the Company or any Subsidiary for any period ending (or deemed pursuant to
Section 8.3(b) to end) on or before the Closing Date to the extent such portion
of the payment exceeds the amount of the


                                      -56-



accruals for Taxes (excluding accruals and reserves for deferred Taxes
established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) set forth
on the Closing Balance Sheet.

          (c) Any Tax Return to be prepared and filed by the Buyer for taxable
periods beginning before the Closing Date shall be prepared on a basis
consistent with the last previous similar Tax Return. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, any Tax Return to be prepared and filed by the Buyer for
taxable periods beginning before the Closing Date shall not be filed without the
prior written consent of the Representative. The Representative shall provide
all reasonable assistance to the Buyer in connection with the preparation of
such Tax Returns.

     8.2 Tax Indemnification by the Company Stockholders.

          (a) The Company Stockholders shall indemnify the Buyer, the Company,
the Surviving Corporation and the Subsidiaries in respect of, and hold the
Buyer, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and the Subsidiaries harmless
against (x) any and all Damages resulting from, relating to, or constituting a
breach of any representation contained in Section 2.9 hereof, (y) any and all
Damages resulting from, relating to, or constituting any failure to perform any
covenant or agreement set forth in Article IV relating to Taxes or in this
Article VIII, and (z) without duplication, the following Taxes with respect to
the Surviving Corporation, the Company and the Subsidiaries:

               (i) Any and all Taxes due and payable by the Surviving
Corporation, the Company or any Subsidiary for any taxable period that ends (or
is deemed pursuant to Section 8.3(b) to end) on or before the Closing Date in
excess of any accruals for current Taxes (excluding accruals and reserves for
deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax
income) on the Closing Balance Sheet;

               (ii) Any liability of such entities for Taxes of other entities
whether pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or comparable or
similar provision under state, local or foreign law), as transferee or successor
or pursuant to any contractual obligation for any taxable period that ends (or
is deemed pursuant to Section 8.3(b) to end) on or before the Closing Date; and

               (iii) Any sales, use, transfer, stamp, conveyance, value added,
recording, registration, documentary, filing or other similar Taxes and fees,
whether levied on the Buyer, the Company Stockholders, the Company, any
Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates, resulting from the Merger or
otherwise on account of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

     8.3 Allocation of Certain Taxes.

          (a) If the Surviving Corporation or the Company is permitted, but not
required, under applicable foreign, state or local Tax laws to treat the Closing
Date as the last day of a taxable period, such day shall be treated as the last
day of a taxable period.

          (b) The portion of any Taxes for a taxable period beginning before and
ending after the Closing allocable to the portion of such period ending on the
Closing Date shall be deemed to equal (i) in the case of Taxes that (x) are
based upon or related to income or receipts or (y) imposed in connection with
any sale or other transfer or assignment of property, other than Taxes described
in Section 8.2(a)(iii), the amount which would be payable if the taxable year
ended with the Closing Date, and (ii) in the case of other Taxes imposed on a
periodic basis (including property Taxes), the amount of such Taxes for the
entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of
calendar days in the period ending with the Closing Date and the denominator of
which is the number of calendar days in the entire period. For purposes of the
provisions of Section 8.2, each portion of such period shall


                                      -57-



be deemed to be a taxable period (whether or not it is in fact a taxable
period). For purposes of computing the Taxes attributable to the two portions of
a taxable period pursuant to this Section 8.3(b), the amount of any item that is
taken into account only once for each taxable period (e.g., the benefit of
graduated tax rates, exemption amounts, etc.) shall be allocated between the two
portions of the period in proportion to the number of days in each portion.

     8.4 Cooperation on Tax Matters.

          (a) The Buyer and the Representative shall cooperate in (i) the
preparation of all Tax Returns for any Tax periods and (ii) the conduct of any
Tax Proceeding, for which one party could reasonably require the assistance of
the other party in obtaining any necessary information. Such cooperation shall
include, but not be limited to, furnishing prior years' Tax Returns or return
preparation packages illustrating previous reporting practices or containing
historical information relevant to the preparation of such Tax Returns, and
furnishing such other information within such party's possession requested by
the other party as is relevant to the preparation of the Tax Returns or the
conduct of the Tax Proceeding. Such cooperation and information also shall
include without limitation promptly forwarding copies of appropriate notices and
forms or other communications received from or sent to any Governmental Entity
which relate to the Surviving Corporation, the Company or any Subsidiary, and
providing copies of all relevant Tax Returns, together with accompanying
schedules and related work papers, documents relating to rulings or other
determinations by any Governmental Entity and records concerning the ownership
and tax basis of property, which the requested party may possess.

          (b) If, subsequent to the Closing, any of the Buyer, the Surviving
Corporation or the Company Stockholders receives notice of a claim by any
Governmental Entity that, if successful, might result in any payment pursuant to
Section 8.2 hereof (a "Tax Claim"), then within 15 calendar days after receipt
of such notice, the Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or the Representative, as
the case may be, shall give written notice of such Tax Claim to the other
parties. The Buyer shall control any Tax Proceeding with respect to a Tax Claim
relating to a Tax period beginning after the Closing Date. The Representative
shall have the right to control any Tax Proceeding with respect to a Tax Claim
relating to a Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date; provided,
however, that with respect to any Tax Proceeding which may affect the Tax
liability of the Company or the Surviving Corporation for any taxable period
ending after the Closing Date, the Representative shall consult with the Buyer
with respect to the resolution of such Tax Proceeding, and not resolve such Tax
Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Representative and the
Buyer shall jointly control any Tax Proceeding with respect to a Tax Claim
relating to a Tax period beginning before the Closing Date and ending after the
Closing Date. If the Representative has the right to control any Tax Proceeding
but elects in writing not to do so, then the Buyer shall control such Tax
Proceeding; provided, however, that the Buyer shall keep the Representative
informed of all material developments on a timely basis and the Buyer shall not
resolve such Tax Proceeding in a manner that would reasonably be expected to
have an adverse impact on the Company Stockholders' indemnification obligations
under this Agreement without the Representative's prior written consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Each party
shall bear its own costs for participating in any Tax Proceeding.

     8.5 Termination of Tax-Sharing Agreements. All Tax sharing agreements or
similar arrangements with respect to or involving the Company or any Subsidiary
shall be terminated prior to the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date,
neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall be bound thereby or have any
liability thereunder for amounts due in respect of periods ending on or before
the Closing Date.


                                      -58-



     8.6 Scope of Article VIII. To the extent not inconsistent with the
procedures for Tax Proceedings set forth in this Article VIII, any claim by the
Buyer under this Article VIII shall be pursued in accordance with the procedures
for indemnification claims, and shall otherwise be subject to the terms and
conditions, set forth in Article VI. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other
term or condition of Article VI, (i) claims under this Article VIII may be made
by the Buyer any time prior to the 30th day after the expiration of the statute
of limitations applicable to the Tax matter to which the claim relates and (ii)
to the extent there is any inconsistency between the terms of Article VI and
this Article VIII with respect to the allocation of responsibility between the
Company Stockholders and the Buyer for Taxes, the provisions of this Article
VIII shall govern. There shall be no double counting of any indemnification
obligation under Article VI and Article VIII. Except as set forth in Section
6.4(c), any limitation upon the Company Stockholders indemnification obligations
pursuant to Section 6.4 shall not apply to any claim made by the Buyer under
this Article VIII.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                             POST-CLOSING AGREEMENTS

     9.1 Proprietary Information.

          (a) From and after the Closing, the Principal Stockholders shall not
disclose or make use of any information relating to the business of the Company
or the Surviving Corporation that provides the Company, the Surviving
Corporation or the Buyer with a competitive advantage (or that could be used to
the disadvantage of the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Buyer by a
Competitive Business), which is not generally known by persons outside the
Company (collectively referred to herein as "Proprietary Information").
Proprietary Information shall not include such information that the Principal
Stockholders can demonstrate (i) is generally available to the public (other
than as a result of a disclosure by a Principal Stockholder), or (ii) was
disclosed to the Principal Stockholders by a third party under no obligation to
keep such information confidential, or (iii) was independently developed by the
Principal Stockholders without reference to Proprietary Information.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Principal Stockholders shall have no
obligation hereunder to keep confidential any of the Proprietary Information to
the extent disclosure thereof is required by law or regulation; provided,
however, that in the event disclosure is required by law or regulation, the
Principal Stockholders shall use Reasonable Best Efforts (to the extent legally
permitted) to provide the Buyer with prompt advance notice of such requirement
so that the Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order.

          (b) Each Principal Stockholder agrees that the remedy at law for any
breach of this Section 9.1 would be inadequate and that the Buyer or the
Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to injunctive relief in addition to any
other remedy it may have upon breach of any provision of this Section 9.1.

     9.2 No Solicitation of Former Employees. Except (i) as provided by law,
(ii) through general solicitation such as a newspaper or trade publication, or
(iii) by solicitation by a head hunter or placement professional not expressly
targeted at such employee, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and
ending on the third anniversary of the Closing Date, no Principal Stockholder or
Controlled Affiliate thereof shall directly or indirectly recruit, solicit or
induce any person who was an employee or subcontractor of the Company or any of
Subsidiary on the date hereof or the Closing Date to terminate his or her
employment with, or otherwise cease their relationship with, the Buyer (or the
Surviving Corporation) (or any of their respective subsidiaries, as the case may
be) or to become an employee of such Principal Stockholder or Controlled
Affiliate.


                                      -59-



     9.3 Non Competition Agreement.

          (a) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the
third anniversary of the Closing Date, no Non-competition Party shall directly
or indirectly, whether as a partner, officer, director, employee, stockholder,
joint venturer, member, investor (other than in his or her capacity as an
employee of the Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective
subsidiaries or as the holder of not more than five percent (5%) of the total
outstanding stock of a publicly-held company) or otherwise:

               (i) engage in, operate or establish any aspect of the business of
the Company as such business has been conducted or had on the Closing Date
planned to be conducted by the Company, or, if such Non-competition Party
becomes an employee of the Buyer, the business of the Buyer, in any county in
any state of the United States of America, or any country within the European
Union; or

               (ii) solicit, divert or take away, or attempt to solicit, divert
or take away, the business or patronage of any individual, corporation or other
entity which was or is a prospective client, customer or account of the
Surviving Corporation or the Buyer or any of their respective subsidiaries on
the Closing Date, or had been a client, customer or account of the Surviving
Corporation, the Company or the Buyer or any of their respective subsidiaries
within a period of two years prior to the Closing Date.

          (b) Each of the Parties and the Non-competition Parties agrees that
the duration and geographic scope of the non-competition provision set forth in
this Section 9.3 are reasonable. In the event that any court of competent
jurisdiction determines that the duration or the geographic scope, or both, are
unreasonable and that such provision is to that extent unenforceable, the each
of the Parties and the Non-competition Parties agrees that the provision shall
remain in full force and effect for the greatest time period and in the greatest
area that would not render it unenforceable. Each of the Parties and the
Non-competition Parties intends that this non-competition provision shall be
deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each and every county of
each and every state of the United States of America where this provision is
intended to be effective. Each of the Non-competition Parties agrees that
damages are an inadequate remedy for any breach of this provision and that the
Buyer shall, whether or not it is pursuing any potential remedies at law, be
entitled to equitable relief in the form of preliminary and permanent
injunctions without bond or other security upon any actual or threatened breach
of this non-competition provision.

          (c) The Non-competition Parties acknowledge that their ownership of
Company Shares represents a substantial interest in the Company and each
Non-competition Party intends to transfer to the Buyer the goodwill reflected in
the Company Shares owned by such Non-competition Party. The Non-competition
Parties further acknowledge that the Buyer would not enter into this Agreement
but for the restrictions in this Section 9.3.

          (d) If a Non-competition Party violates the terms of this Section 9.3,
such Non-competition Party shall continue to be bound by the restrictions set
forth herein until a period of three years has expired without any violations of
this Section.

     9.4 Buyer Breach and Support. Upon the Closing and continuing until the
six-month anniversary thereof, the Buyer shall not (i) knowingly breach any of
the contracts listed on Schedule IV and Schedule VII, unless the conduct giving
rise to such breach is substantially similar to the conduct of the Company with
respect to such contract prior to the Closing, and (ii) redeploy or terminate
the employment of any of the individuals listed on Schedule IX, other than for
cause, unless the Buyer


                                      -60-



provides substitute personnel or other substantially similar resources to
maintain the contracts listed on Schedule IV and Schedule VII.

          (a) the Parties may terminate this Agreement by mutual written
consent;

          (b) the Buyer may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to
the Company in the event the Company is in breach of any representation,
warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement, and such breach, individually
or in combination with any other such breach, (i) would cause the conditions set

not cured within 20 calendar days following delivery by the Buyer to the Company
of written notice of such breach;

          (c) the Company may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice

satisfied and (ii) is not cured within 20 calendar days following delivery by
the Company to the Buyer of written notice of such breach;

          (d) the Buyer may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to
the other Parties at any time after the stockholders of the Company have voted
on whether to approve this Agreement and the Merger in the event this Agreement
and the Merger failed to receive the Requisite Stockholder Approval within one
calendar day of the execution of this Agreement;

          (e) the Buyer may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to
the Company if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before May 12, 2007, by

Subsidiary of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this
Agreement);

          (f) the Company may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice
to the Buyer and the Transitory Subsidiary if the Closing shall not have

that the Buyer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to
this paragraph (g) if the Company agrees to fund, and does fund, on a current
basis, all Covered Costs in excess of the Cost Cap. If the Company does fund
Covered Costs in excess of the Cost Cap and (i) clearance and approval of the
Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement is received
such that (ii) the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this
Agreement are consummated and the Certificate of Merger is filed with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, then all Covered Costs paid or
accrued by the Company in excess of the Cost Cap shall, to the extent not paid
prior to the Effective Time, be fully accrued for on both the Preliminary

          of the Escrow Shares, whether by way of stock dividends, stock splits
          or otherwise, shall be issued in the name of the Escrow Agent or its
          nominee, and shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent, who shall hold
          such securities in the Escrow Account. Such securities shall be
          considered Escrow Shares for purposes hereof. Any cash dividends or
          property (other than securities) distributed in respect of the Escrow
          Shares shall promptly be released by the Escrow Agent to the Exchange
          Agent for distribution to the Company Stockholders. The Escrow Agent
          hereby agrees to act with respect to the Escrow Shares as hereinafter
          set forth. The Indemnification Escrow Shares and the Identified
          Contract Shares will be retained by the Escrow Agent for safekeeping
          pursuant to the terms hereof (a) as security for the indemnity
          obligations of the Company Stockholders under Article VI of the Merger
          Agreement and (b) to satisfy, in accordance with Section 1.10 of the
          Merger Agreement, any post-closing adjustment obligations to the Buyer
          pursuant to Section 1.10 of the Merger Agreement. The Representative
          Shares will be retained by the Escrow Agent for safekeeping pursuant
          to the terms hereof for the purpose of securing funds to reimburse the
          Representative for fees and expenses incurred in connection with the
          performance of the Representative's obligations under the Merger
          Agreement and this Agreement. The Escrow Shares are not subject to any
          transfer restrictions, except for contractual lock up restrictions for
          which the Escrow Agent shall not be responsible. Any cash held by the
          Escrow Agent hereunder shall remain uninvested. The Escrow Agent shall
          be under no obligation to sell any of the Escrow Shares.

     3.2  The Representative shall have the right, in his, her or its sole
          discretion, on behalf of the Company Stockholders, to direct the
          Escrow Agent in writing as to the exercise of any voting rights
          pertaining to the Escrow Shares, and the Escrow Agent shall comply
          with any such written instructions. In the absence of such
          instructions, the Escrow Agent shall not vote any of the Escrow
          Shares.

ARTICLE IV Release of Escrow Shares. The Escrow Agent shall release the Escrow
     Shares only in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.

     4.1  In the event that the Buyer desires to seek an indemnification claim
          hereunder (other than claims with respect to indemnification under
          Section 6.1(f) or 6.1(h) of the Merger Agreement, which is provided
          for in Section 4.7 below), the Buyer shall provide the Escrow Agent
          with a Claim Notice or Expected Claim Notice signed by the Buyer. Such
          Claim Notice or Expected Claim Notice shall specify the number of
          Indemnification Escrow Shares or Identified Contract Escrow Shares, as
          applicable, represented by the Claimed Amount, calculated as the
          Claimed Amount divided by $50.37 per share, and rounded to the nearest
          whole number of Escrow Shares. Such Claim Notice or Expected Claim
          Notice shall be sent by the Buyer to the Escrow Agent and to the
          Representative simultaneously.

     4.2  If the Escrow Agent receives a Claim Notice and within twenty (20)
          calendar days after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of such Claim
          Notice either (a) does not receive a Response from the Representative,
          or (b) receives a Response from the Representative in



          which the Representative agrees that the Buyer is entitled to receive
          all of the Claimed Amount, then, in either such case, the Escrow Agent
          will release to the Buyer, on behalf of the Company Stockholders, a
          number of Escrow Shares specified in such Claim Notice and calculated
          as specified in Section 4.1 above within three (3) Business Days after
          the expiration of such twenty (20) calendar day period. The
          Representative shall send a copy of any Response to the Buyer at the
          same time such Response is sent to the Escrow Agent.

     4.3  If the Escrow Agent receives a Response from the Representative that
          relates to a Claim Notice (other than a Response covered by Section
          4.2 above) within twenty (20) calendar days after the receipt by the
          Representative of such Claim Notice, the Escrow Agent will, in respect
          of such Claim Notice, release to the Buyer a number of Escrow Shares
          specified in such Response equal to the Agreed Amount (if any), in
          which case the Response shall reflect the number of Escrow Shares
          equal to the Agreed Amount and calculated as specified in Section 4.1
          above, within three (3) Business Days after the receipt of such
          Response; provided that, if the Response does not set forth the number
          of Escrow Shares equal to the Agreed Amount, within two (2) Business
          Days of receipt of the Response, the Buyer may provide such number of
          Escrow Shares, based upon the Agreed Amount divided by $50.37, to the
          Escrow Agent (with a copy to the Representative) (the "Agreed Amount
          Share Notice"), in which case the Escrow Agent will release to the
          Buyer the number of Escrow Shares set forth in the Agreed Amount Share
          Notice. Acceptance by the Buyer of a partial payment of the Claimed
          Amount shall be without prejudice to the Buyer's right to claim the
          balance of any Claimed Amount.

     4.4  In case the Representative shall provide a Response with respect to
          any Claim Notice in accordance with Section 4.3 above, during the
          thirty (30) calendar day period following delivery of the Response,
          the Representative and Buyer shall use good faith efforts to resolve
          the Dispute. If, within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of a
          Response involving a Dispute, the Representative and the Buyer are
          unable to agree on a resolution of the matter, the parties shall
          discuss in good faith the submission of the Dispute to binding
          arbitration, and if the Representative and the Buyer agree in writing
          to submit the Dispute to such arbitration, then the provisions of
          Section 6.2(e) of the Merger Agreement shall become effective with
          respect to such Dispute. The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall not
          obligate the Representative and the Buyer to submit to arbitration or
          any other alternative dispute resolution procedure with respect to any
          Dispute, and in the absence of an agreement by the Representative and
          the Buyer to arbitrate a Dispute, such Dispute shall be resolved in a
          state or federal court sitting in the State of New York, in accordance
          with Section 12.11 of the Merger Agreement. The Representative and the
          Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, promptly following the
          resolution of the Dispute (whether by mutual agreement, arbitration,
          judicial decision or otherwise), a written notice executed by both
          parties setting forth such resolution (which notice shall be
          consistent with the terms of the resolution of the Dispute) and
          instructing the Escrow Agent to deliver to the Buyer the number of
          Escrow Shares (if any) set forth in such notice.

     4.5  If the Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement) is
          reduced, as determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Buyer and
          the Representative shall jointly notify the Escrow Agent within three
          (3) Business Days after any such determination is made pursuant to the
          terms of the Merger Agreement, and the Escrow Agent shall make the
          disbursement of Escrow Shares to the Buyer in the amount set forth



          in such notice within three (3) Business Days following its receipt of
          such notice. If the Merger Consideration is increased as determined
          pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Buyer shall instruct the
          Exchange Agent to deliver to the Escrow Agent a stock certificate, in
          the name of the Escrow Agent or its nominee, for a number of shares of
          Common Stock that, is equal to 12.5% of the amount of the increase in
          Merger Consideration, such shares to be held in accordance with the
          terms of this Agreement; any such shares shall be considered
          "Indemnification Escrow Shares" for purposes of this Agreement. The
          Buyer will deliver written notice to the Escrow Agent of such
          additional shares of Common Stock and identify such shares as
          additional Indemnification Escrow Shares.

     4.6  Within thirty-five (35) Business Days following the date that the
          Buyer delivers to the Representative the Closing Balance Sheet (the
          "Initial Distribution Date"), the Buyer shall simultaneously deliver
          the Initial Distribution Notice to the Escrow Agent and to the
          Representative. Within three (3) Business Days after the receipt by
          the Escrow Agent of the Initial Distribution Notice, the Escrow Agent
          shall make the disbursement, if any, of the number of Identified
          Contract Shares set forth in the Initial Distribution Notice, to the
          Exchange Agent for distribution to the Company Stockholders.

     4.7  Within five (5) Business Days following [___________], 2007(1), the
          Buyer shall simultaneously deliver to the Escrow Agent and to the
          Representative, the Section 6.1(f) Notice and the Customer Contract
          Notice. Within three (3) Business Days after the receipt by the Escrow
          Agent of the Section 6.1(f) Notice or Customer Contract Notice, as
          applicable, the Escrow Agent shall make the disbursement, if any, of
          the number of Identified Contract Shares set forth in the Section
          6.1(f) Notice or the Customer Contract Notice, as applicable, to the
          Exchange Agent for distribution to the Company Stockholders.

     4.8  If, within twenty (20) calendar days after the receipt by the Escrow
          Agent of the Section 6.1(f) Notice or Customer Contract Notice, as
          applicable, the Escrow Agent either (a) does not receive a Response
          from the Representative, or (b) receives a Response from the
          Representative in which the Representative agrees that the Buyer is
          entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount set forth in the Section
          6.1(f) Notice or Customer Contract Notice, as applicable, then, in
          either such case, the Escrow Agent will release to the Buyer, on
          behalf of the Company Stockholders, a number of Identified Contract
          Shares represented by the Claimed Amount specified in such Section
          6.1(f) Notice or Customer Contract Notice, as applicable, within three
          (3) Business Days after the expiration of such twenty (20) calendar
          day period. The Representative shall send a copy of any Response to
          the Buyer at the same time such Response is sent to the Escrow Agent.

     4.9  If the Escrow Agent receives a Response from the Representative in
          connection with the Section 6.1(f) Notice or Customer Contract Notice
          (other than a Response covered by Section 4.8 above) within twenty
          (20) calendar days after the receipt by the Representative of such
          notice, the Escrow Agent will, in respect of such notice, release to
          the Buyer a number of Identified Contract Shares specified in such
          Response equal to the Agreed Amount (if any), in which case the
          Response shall reflect the number of Identified Contract Shares equal
          to the Agreed Amount and calculated as specified in Section 4.1 above,
          within three (3) Business Days after the receipt of such Response;
          provided that, if the Response does not set forth the number of
          Identified Contract Shares equal to the Agreed Amount, within two (2)
          Business Days of receipt of the Response,

(1)  This date will be 10 months following the Closing Date.



          the Buyer may provide such number of Identified Contract Shares, based
          upon the Agreed Amount divided by $50.37, to the Escrow Agent (with a
          copy to the Representative), in which case the Escrow Agent will
          release to the Buyer the number of Identified Contract Shares set
          forth in such notice provided by the Buyer.

     4.10 In case the Representative shall provide a Response with respect to
          the Section 6.1(f) Notice or Customer Contract Notice in accordance
          with Section 4.9 above, during the thirty (30) calendar day period
          following delivery of the Response, the Representative and Buyer shall
          use good faith efforts to resolve the Dispute. If, within thirty (30)
          calendar days after receipt of a Response involving a Dispute, the
          Representative and the Buyer are unable to agree on a resolution of
          the matter, the parties shall discuss in good faith the submission of
          the Dispute to binding arbitration, and if the Representative and the
          Buyer agree in writing to submit the Dispute to such arbitration, then
          the provisions of Section 6.2(e) of the Merger Agreement shall become
          effective with respect to such Dispute. The provisions of this Section
          4.10 shall not obligate the Representative or the Buyer to submit to
          arbitration or any other alternative dispute resolution procedure with
          respect to any Dispute, and in the absence of an agreement by the
          Representative and the Buyer to arbitrate a Dispute, such Dispute
          shall be resolved in a state or federal court sitting in the State of
          New York, in accordance with Section 12.11 of the Merger Agreement.
          The Representative and the Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow Agent,
          promptly following the resolution of the Dispute (whether by mutual
          agreement, arbitration, judicial decision or otherwise), a written
          notice executed by both parties setting forth such resolution (which
          notice shall be consistent with the terms of the resolution of the
          Dispute) and instructing the Escrow Agent to deliver to the Buyer the
          number of Identified Contract Shares (if any) set forth in such
          notice.

     4.11 At any time and from time to time prior to [___________], 2008(2)
          (such date, the "Termination Date"), the Representative may deliver to
          the Escrow Agent and the Buyer a notice, executed by the
          Representative (a "Reimbursement Notice"), which shall (i) state that
          the Representative and/or any of his or her agents or representatives
          has reasonably paid or incurred (or reasonably expects to pay or incur
          following the Termination Date) fees and disbursements in connection
          with the performance of the Representative's obligations under the
          Merger Agreement or this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the
          fees and expenses of legal counsel (a "Reimbursement Item"), (ii)
          state the aggregate amount of such Reimbursement Item and the amount
          of Representative Shares necessary to satisfy the amount specified in
          the Reimbursement Item, and (iii) specify in reasonable detail the
          nature and amount of each individual Reimbursement Item. The Escrow
          Agent shall, promptly upon receipt of such Reimbursement Notice,
          release to the Representative such amount as is equal to the lesser of
          (A) the number of Representative Shares claimed in the Reimbursement
          Notice or (B) the amount of any remaining Representative Shares.
          Within three (3) Business Days following the Termination Date, to the
          extent there are Representative Shares remaining at that time that
          have not been distributed to the Representative for reimbursement
          pursuant to this Section 4.11, the Escrow Agent shall release the
          remaining Representative Shares to the Exchange Agent for distribution
          to the Company Stockholders.

     4.12 To the extent the Representative is entitled to be reimbursed for a
          Reimbursement Item pursuant to Section 4.11 above and has not been
          reimbursed for such Reimbursement Item pursuant to Section 4.11 above,
          then immediately prior to the Termination Date and

(2)  This date will be 18 months following the Closing Date.



          prior to delivery of any Escrow Shares to the Company Stockholders,
          and to the extent there are Escrow Shares remaining at that time that
          are not subject to Claimed Amounts, the Escrow Agent shall release to
          the Representative an amount of Escrow Shares (valued at the closing
          sale price of the Buyer Common Shares (as defined in the Merger
          Agreement) on The NASDAQ Stock Market on the last business day prior
          to the release of such shares, as provided in writing to the Escrow
          Agent by the Representative) equal to the Reimbursement Item that has
          not been reimbursed pursuant to Section 4.11 above, or if there are
          not enough Escrow Shares remaining at such time, then the
          Representative shall be entitled to such lesser amount of Escrow
          Shares.

     4.13 Within three (3) Business Days after the Termination Date, the Escrow
          Agent shall release to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the
          Company Stockholders all remaining Escrow Shares then held by the
          Escrow Agent less the number of Escrow Shares, if any, that will equal
          all amounts that are either subject to any unresolved Claim Notices,
          Expected Claim Notices (including any amounts subject to litigation
          under the terms of this Agreement) or are under Dispute in connection
          with the Section 6.1(f) Notice or Customer Contract Notice, or are due
          to be released or disbursed under a Claim Notice or an Expected Claim
          Notice or written notice of release pursuant to Section 4 of this
          Agreement. In the event that any Escrow Shares are not released to the
          Exchange Agent pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 4.13,
          then any such remaining Escrow Shares shall be released or disbursed
          only in accordance with Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9 and
          4.10 hereof.

     4.14 The Escrow Agent shall, promptly after each release or disbursement of
          the Escrow Shares set forth in this Section 4, deliver to the
          Representative and the Buyer a notice setting forth the aggregate
          number of the Escrow Shares so released or disbursed to the Exchange
          Agent, for distribution to the Company Stockholders, or to the Buyer
          and the balance of the Escrow Shares as of such date.

ARTICLE V Transferability. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the
     interest of the Company Stockholders, the Buyer, or the Escrow Agent in the
     Escrow Shares shall not be assignable or transferable, other than by
     operation of law; or otherwise unless each such assignee or transferee
     agrees in writing to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this
     Agreement as if he were an original party hereto and further provided that
     the assignor provides the other parties hereto prior written notice of such
     assignment or transfer. The Escrow Shares shall be held as a trust fund and
     none of the Company Stockholders or any party hereto shall pledge, grant a
     lien or other security interest, grant an option or otherwise encumber its
     interests in the Escrow Shares. Any assignment, transfer or encumbrance of
     an interest in the Escrow Shares in violation of this Section 5 shall be
     void.

ARTICLE VI Termination. This Agreement shall terminate upon release, in
     accordance with the provisions hereof, of all Escrow Shares. The
     obligations of the Buyer and the Company Stockholders to pay accrued fees
     to the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 8.7 hereof and of the Buyer and the
     Company Stockholders to indemnify the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 8.8
     hereof shall survive any termination of this Agreement or replacement of
     the Escrow Agent hereunder.

ARTICLE VII No Creditor Rights. The Buyer and the Company Stockholders shall be
     entitled to receive Escrow Shares solely in accordance with the terms
     hereof. No creditor of the Buyer, the Company, the Exchange Agent or the
     Company Stockholders will have any rights in or to the Escrow Shares so
     long as such Escrow Shares remain subject to the terms of this Agreement.



ARTICLE VIII Matters Relating to the Escrow Agent.

     8.1  The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are
          expressly set forth herein. The Escrow Agent shall have no liability
          under and no duty to inquire as to the provisions of any agreement
          other than this Agreement. Unless otherwise determined in this
          Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice of a
          claim, or demand with respect thereto, or any waiver, modification,
          amendment, termination, cancellation, or revision of this Agreement,
          unless it is in writing and signed by the Buyer and the
          Representative, and received by the Escrow Agent, and, if the Escrow
          Agent's duties as Escrow Agent hereunder are affected, unless the
          Escrow Agent shall have given its prior written consent thereto.

     8.2  The Escrow Agent may rely and shall be protected in acting or
          refraining from acting upon any written instructions or notices
          furnished to it hereunder and believed by it to be genuine and to have
          been signed and presented by the proper party or parties. The Escrow
          Agent shall be under no duty to inquire into or investigate the
          validity or accuracy of any such document, including any numerical
          calculation of disbursement amounts contained therein. The Escrow
          Agent shall be under no duty to solicit any funds that may be
          deliverable to it under the terms of this Agreement. In the event that
          the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights
          hereunder or shall receive instructions, claims or demands from any
          party hereto which, in its opinion, conflict with any of the
          provisions of this Agreement, it shall be entitled to refrain from
          taking any action and its sole obligation shall be to keep safely all
          property held in escrow until it shall be directed otherwise in
          writing jointly by the Buyer and the Representative or by a final
          order.

     8.3  The Escrow Agent will not be liable for any action taken or omitted by
          it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the
          rights and powers conferred upon it by this Agreement (other than
          actions or inactions in bad faith or for its gross negligence or
          willful misconduct), and may consult with outside counsel of its own
          choice and will be fully protected for any action taken by it
          hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the written opinion of
          such counsel.

     8.4  Any corporation or association into which the Escrow Agent may be
          merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
          corporation or association to which all or substantially all the
          escrow business of such Escrow Agent's corporate trust line of
          business may be transferred, shall be the Escrow Agent under this
          Agreement without further act upon at least 60 days' prior written
          notice to the Buyer and the Representative; provided that the Buyer
          and the Representative shall have the right within 30 days after
          receiving any such notice to appoint a different escrow agent, as
          determined by mutual agreement.

     8.5  The Escrow Agent may resign by giving written notice of such
          resignation to the Buyer and the Representative specifying a date (not
          less than 30 days after the giving of such notice) when such
          resignation shall take effect; provided, however, that such
          resignation shall not become effective until a successor escrow agent
          shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment in
          writing and all consideration held in escrow pursuant to this
          Agreement has been transferred to such successor escrow agent.
          Promptly after such notice, the Buyer and the Representative will, by
          mutual agreement, appoint a successor escrow agent, such successor
          escrow agent to hold the consideration theretofore deposited with such
          Escrow Agent upon the resignation date specified in such



          notice. If a successor escrow agent is not appointed within 30 days
          after written notice of resignation by the Escrow Agent is received by
          the Buyer and the Representative, such Escrow Agent shall have the
          right to petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
          appointment of a successor escrow agent.

     8.6  The Buyer and the Representative may by mutual agreement at any time
          substitute a new escrow agent(s) by giving 15 days' notice thereof to
          the Escrow Agent then acting. The Escrow Agent shall continue to serve
          until its successor accepts the escrow and receives delivery of all
          consideration held in escrow pursuant to this Agreement.

     8.7  The Buyer, on the one hand, and the Company Stockholders, on the other
          hand, shall each (i) pay to the Escrow Agent 50% its service fees as
          stated in Exhibit A attached hereto, and (ii) reimburse the Escrow
          Agent upon request for 50% of all reasonable expenses, disbursements
          and advances, including (1) overnight delivery service charges and (2)
          reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred or made by it in connection with
          carrying out its duties hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall invoice each
          of the Buyer and the Representative (with respect to obligations of
          the Company Stockholders) separately in accordance with the provisions
          of this Section 8.7. The Escrow Agent shall not be required to release
          any Escrow Shares hereunder to the Representative or the Exchange
          Agent for distribution to the Company Stockholders if, at the time
          such Escrow Shares are to be released in accordance with this
          Agreement, there are any outstanding fees and expenses attributable to
          the Company Stockholders payable to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the
          terms of this Agreement. Upon payment of all such outstanding fees and
          expenses attributable to Company Stockholders, the Escrow Agent shall
          promptly release such Escrow Shares in accordance with this Agreement.

     8.8  The Buyer and the Company Stockholders, jointly and severally, each
          agree to indemnify the Escrow Agent and its respective shareholders,
          directors, officers, agents and employees for, and to hold them
          harmless as to any liability, claims, suits, actions, proceedings
          (formal and informal), investigations, judgments, deficiencies,
          damages, settlements, incurred by it by reason of, or relating to, it
          having accepted such appointment or in carrying out the terms and its
          duties hereof, other than as incurred by reason of such Escrow Agent's
          gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

     8.9  The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any of the agreements
          referred to or described herein (including, without limitation, the
          Merger Agreement), or for determining or compelling compliance
          therewith, and shall not otherwise be bound thereby. The Escrow Agent
          shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are
          expressly and specifically set forth in this Escrow Agreement.
          Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no
          event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for special, indirect or
          consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not
          limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of
          the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
          action. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for delays or
          failures in performance due to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots,
          acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after
          the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power
          failures, earthquakes or other disasters.

     8.10 The Escrow Agent is authorized to comply with and obey all laws,
          orders, judgments, decrees, and regulations of any governmental
          authority, court, tribunal, or arbitrator. If the Escrow Agent so
          complies, it shall not be liable even if such law, order, judgment,



          decree, or regulation is subsequently reversed, modified, annulled,
          set aside, vacated, or found to have been entered without
          jurisdiction.

respective meanings assigned to them in the Merger Agreement referred to below.

     WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Principal Stockholders collectively own
of record and beneficially shares of capital stock of the Company, as set forth
on Schedule I hereto (such shares, or any other voting or equity of securities
of the Company hereafter acquired by any Principal Stockholder prior to the
termination of this Agreement, being referred to herein collectively as the
"Shares");

     WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Buyer, the
Company and the other parties named therein are entering into an Agreement and
Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant
to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, a subsidiary of

Merger Agreement, Buyer has required that the Principal Stockholders agree, and,
in order to induce Buyer to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Principal
Stockholders are willing, to enter into this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants
and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the
parties hereby agree, severally and not jointly, as follows:

     Section 1. VOTING OF SHARES.

          (a) Each Principal Stockholder covenants and agrees that until the
termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, at any
meeting of the Company Stockholders, however called, and in any action by
written consent of Company Stockholders, such Principal Stockholder agrees to
(i) if no Adverse Recommendation (as defined below) has been made (A) to vote,
or exercise its right to consent with respect to, all Shares that are
beneficially owned by such Principal Stockholder in favor of the adoption of the
Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger and (B) not to vote, or exercise
its right to consent with respect to, any Shares in favor of any other
acquisition (whether by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange, stock
purchase or asset purchase) of all or a majority of the outstanding capital
stock or assets of the Company, and (ii) if an Adverse Recommendation has been
made, (A) to vote, or exercise its right to consent with respect to, at least
the Common Adverse Share Requirements and Preferred Adverse Share Requirements
(each as defined below), rounded up to the nearest whole number, that are
beneficially owned by such Principal Stockholder in favor of the adoption of the
Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger and (B) not to vote, or exercise
its right to consent with respect to, at least the Common Adverse Share
Requirements and Preferred Adverse Share Requirements, rounded up to the nearest
whole number, that are beneficially owned by such Principal Stockholder in favor
of any other acquisition (whether by way of merger, consolidation, share
exchange, stock purchase or asset purchase) of all or a majority of the
outstanding capital stock or assets of the Company. Each



Principal Stockholder further agrees until the termination of this Agreement to
use his, her or its Reasonable Best Efforts to obtain the Requisite Stockholder
Approval.

          (b) For purposes of this Agreement:

               (i) "Acquisition Proposal" shall mean any proposal or offer
involving, directly or indirectly, (A) the sale of more than 20% of the voting
power of the Company, (B) any merger, reorganization, consolidation,
recapitalization, business combination, liquidation, dissolution or share
exchange involving the Company, (C) any sale of securities representing more
than 20% of the voting power of the Company, or (D) the sale or other
disposition (including, without limitation, via license outside of the ordinary
course of business or joint venture) of assets that constitute more than 20% of
the Company's total assets (on a consolidated basis) or assets that account for
more than 20% of the consolidated net revenues or net income of the Company.

               (ii) "Adverse Recommendation" shall mean, the withdrawal or
modification by the Board of Directors of the Company of its recommendation to
the Company Stockholders to approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger due to
the receipt of a Superior Proposal (as defined below) that did not result from a
breach by the Company of Section 4.7 of the Merger Agreement;

               (iii) "Common Adverse Share Requirements" shall mean, with
respect to each Principal Stockholder, that percentage (not to exceed 100%) of
the Common Shares (not including any shares issuable upon conversion of
outstanding Preferred Shares) then owned by such Principal Stockholder having in
the aggregate that number of votes in the election of directors and approval of
any Acquisition Proposal ("Common Voting Power") equal to the result obtained by
dividing (A) 30% by (B) the percentage of the Common Voting Power of all then
outstanding Common Shares (not including any shares issuable upon conversion of
outstanding Preferred Shares) owned in the aggregate by the Principal
Stockholders at the time of such vote;

               (iv) "Preferred Adverse Share Requirements" shall mean, with
respect to each Principal Stockholder, that percentage (not to exceed 100%) of
the Preferred Shares then owned by such Principal Stockholder having in the
aggregate that number of votes in the election of directors and approval of any
Acquisition Proposal ("Preferred Voting Power") equal to the result obtained by
dividing (i) 30% by (ii) the percentage of the Preferred Voting Power of all
then outstanding Preferred Shares owned in the aggregate by the Principal
Stockholders at the time of such vote; and

               (v) "Superior Proposal" shall mean any bona fide written proposal
made by a third party (other than one made in response to any solicitation by
the Company or the Company's or any of a Subsidiary's (as defined in the Merger
Agreement) directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, attorneys,
accountants or other advisors or representative that is in violation of or
inconsistent with the terms of the Merger Agreement) to acquire all the equity
securities or assets of the Company, pursuant to a stock purchase, tender or
exchange offer, a merger, a consolidation or a sale of its assets, (A) on terms
which the Company's Board of Directors determines in its good faith judgment to
be materially more favorable from a financial point of view to the holders of
Company Shares than the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (based
on the written opinion, with only customary qualifications, of a nationally
recognized independent financial advisor), taking into account all the terms and
conditions of such proposal and the Merger Agreement (including any proposal by
the Buyer to amend the terms of this Agreement) and (B) that is reasonably
capable of being completed on the terms proposed, taking into account all
financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects of such proposal; provided,
however, that no proposal shall be deemed to be a Superior Proposal if any
financing required to consummate the proposal is not committed.



          (c) Each Principal Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to, and
appoints, Buyer, and any individual designated in writing by it, and each of
them individually, as his, her or its proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full
power of substitution), for and in its name, place and stead, to vote his, her
or its Shares in any action by written consent of Company Stockholders or at any
meeting of the Company Stockholders called with respect to any of the matters
specified in, and in accordance and consistent with, this Section 1. Each
Principal Stockholder understands and acknowledges that Buyer is entering into
the Merger Agreement in reliance upon the Principal Stockholder's execution and
delivery of this Agreement. Each Principal Stockholder hereby affirms that the
irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 1(b) is given in connection with the
execution of the Merger Agreement, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to
secure the performance of the duties of such Principal Stockholder under this
Agreement. Except as otherwise provided for herein, each Principal Stockholder
hereby (i) affirms that the irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and
may under no circumstances be revoked, (ii) ratifies and confirms all that the
proxies appointed hereunder may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof
and (iii) affirms that such irrevocable proxy is executed and intended to be
irrevocable in accordance with the provisions of Section 212(e) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement,
the irrevocable proxy granted hereunder shall automatically terminate upon the
termination of this Agreement.

     Section 2. Transfer of Shares. Each Principal Stockholder covenants and
agrees that such Principal Stockholder will not directly or indirectly (i) sell,
assign, transfer (including by merger, testamentary disposition, interspousal
disposition pursuant to a domestic relations proceeding or otherwise by
operation of law), pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares,
(ii) deposit any of the Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting
agreement or arrangement with respect to the Shares or grant any proxy or power
of attorney with respect thereto which is inconsistent with this Agreement,
(iii) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking with
respect to the direct or indirect sale, assignment, transfer (including by
merger, testamentary disposition, interspousal disposition pursuant to a
domestic relations proceeding or otherwise by operation of law) or other
disposition of any Shares or (iv) otherwise commit any act, except as permitted
by this Agreement or required by order of a court of competent jurisdiction,
that could restrict or otherwise affect his, her or its legal power, authority
and right to vote all of the Shares then owned of record or beneficially by him,
her or it.

     Section 3. Representations and Warranties of the Principal Stockholders.
Each Principal Stockholder on his, her or its own behalf hereby severally
represents and warrants to Buyer with respect to itself and his, her or its
ownership of the Shares as follows:

          (a) Ownership of Shares. The Principal Stockholder legally and
beneficially owns all of the Shares as set forth on Schedule I hereto and has
good and marketable title to such Shares, free and clear of any claims, liens,
encumbrances and security interests whatsoever. The Principal Stockholder owns
no Company Shares other than the Shares as set forth on Schedule I hereto. The
Principal Stockholder has sole voting power, without restrictions, with respect
to all of the Shares.

          (b) Power, Binding Agreement. The Principal Stockholder has the legal
capacity and all requisite power and authority to enter into and perform all of
its obligations, under this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly and validly
executed and delivered by the Principal Stockholder and constitutes a valid and
binding obligation of the Principal Stockholder, enforceable against the
Principal Stockholder in accordance with its terms.

          (c) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement do not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
will not, conflict with or result in any violation of, or default (with or
without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of



termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a
material benefit under, any provision of any loan or credit agreement, note,
bond, mortgage, indenture, lease, or other agreement, instrument, permit,
concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, decree, statute, law,
ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to the Principal Stockholder, the
Shares or any of the Principal Stockholder's properties or assets. Except as
expressly contemplated hereby, the Principal Stockholder is not a party to, and
the Shares are not subject to or bound in any manner by, any contract or
agreement relating to the Shares, including without limitation, any voting
agreement, option agreement, purchase agreement, stockholders' agreement,
partnership agreement or voting trust. No consent, approval, order or
authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any court,
administrative agency or commission or other governmental authority or
instrumentality, domestic, foreign or supranational, is required by or with
respect to the Principal Stockholder in connection with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement or the consummation by the Principal Stockholder of
the transactions contemplated hereby.

     Section 4. EXCLUSIVITY.

          (a) During the Pre-Closing Period, each of the Principal Stockholders
agrees (and the Principal Stockholders shall require each of their officers,
directors, employees, representatives and agents) not to directly or indirectly,
(i) initiate, solicit, encourage or otherwise facilitate any inquiry, proposal,
offer or discussion with any party (other than the Buyer or its representatives)
concerning any acquisition, equity or debt financing (except as specifically
permitted pursuant to Section 4.4(c) of the Merger Agreement), joint venture,
merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, business combination,
liquidation, dissolution, share exchange, sale of stock, sale of material assets
or similar business transaction involving the Company or any Subsidiary (as
defined in the Merger Agreement), (ii) furnish any information concerning the
business, properties or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary or the Company
Shares to any party (other than the Buyer or its representatives) or (iii)
engage in negotiations or enter into any agreement with any party (other than
the Buyer or its representatives) concerning any such transaction.

          (b) Each Principal Stockholder shall immediately notify any party with
which discussions or negotiations of the nature described in paragraph (a) above
were pending that the Principal Stockholder is terminating such discussions or
negotiations. If any Principal Stockholder receives any inquiry, proposal or
offer of the nature described in paragraph (a) above, the Principal Stockholder
shall, within one business day after such receipt, notify the Buyer of such
inquiry, proposal or offer, including the identity of the other party and the
terms of such inquiry, proposal or offer.

     Section 5. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier to
occur of (i) the Effective Time or (ii) any termination of the Merger Agreement
in accordance with the terms thereof; provided that no such termination shall
relieve any party of liability for a breach hereof prior to termination, and
such termination will not affect any rights hereunder which by their terms do
not terminate or expire prior to or at such termination.

     Section 6. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable
damage would occur in the event any provision of this Agreement was not
performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be
entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other
remedy at law or in equity without posting any bond or other undertaking.

     Section 7. Fiduciary Duties. Each Principal Stockholder is signing this
Agreement solely in such Principal Stockholder's capacity as an owner of his,
her or its respective Shares, and nothing herein shall prohibit, prevent or
preclude such Principal Stockholder from taking or not taking any action in his



or her capacity as an officer or director of the Company, to the extent
permitted by the Merger Agreement.

     Section 8. MISCELLANEOUS.

          (a) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral,
between the parties with respect thereto. This Agreement may not be amended,
modified or rescinded except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the
parties hereto.

          (b) Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is
invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public
policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless
remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other
provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto
shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the
original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the
terms of this Agreement remain as originally contemplated to the fullest extent
possible.

          (c) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the
principles of conflicts of law thereof.

          (d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile
signature.

communications hereunder shall be in writing. Any notice, request, demand, claim

          (g) Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights,
interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in
whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto

interpretation of this Agreement. The language used in this Agreement shall be
deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual
intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party.
Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used in this Agreement shall

"including" are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by
the words "without limitation." No summary of this Agreement prepared by the
parties shall affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

          (i) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties to this Agreement
(i) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of any state or
federal court sitting in Delaware in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, (ii) agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding
may be heard and determined in any such court, (iii) agrees that it will not
attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request
for leave from any such court and (iv) agrees not to bring any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any other court. Each of the
parties hereto waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other
security that might be required of any other party with respect thereto. Any
party hereto may make service on another party by sending or delivering a copy
of the process to the party to be served at the



address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 8(e).
Nothing in this Section, however, shall affect the right of any party to serve
legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

          (j) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE BUYER, THE COMPANY AND EACH
PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN

STOCKHOLDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF

Re:  Merger Agreement, dated as of February 2, 2007, by and among Akamai
     Technologies, Inc., Lode Star Acquisition Corp., Netli, Inc. and certain
     other signatories thereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as special counsel to Netli, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Netli"), in connection with the transactions contemplated by that certain
Merger Agreement, dated as of February 2, 2007 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and
among Akamai Technologies, Inc., Lode Star Acquisition Corp., Netli, Inc. and
certain other signatories thereto.

     As such counsel, we have examined such matters of fact and questions of law
as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this letter, except where a
specific fact confirmation procedure is stated to have been performed (in which
case we have with your consent performed the stated procedure), and except where
a statement is qualified as to knowledge (in which case we have with your
consent made no or limited inquiry as specified below). We have examined, among
other things, the following:

          (a)  the Merger Agreement;

          (b)  the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
               of Netli, each as in effect on the date hereof (together, the
               "Company Governing Documents");

          (c)  the agreements identified to us by an officer of Netli as
               material to Netli and listed in Exhibit A (collectively, the
               "Listed Agreements")(3);

          (d)  a certificate of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware
               as to the valid existence and good standing of Netli under the
               laws of the State of Delaware as of [______], 2007;

          (e)  a certificate of the Secretary of State of the State of
               California as to the qualification of Netli to transact
               intrastate business as a foreign corporation in the State of
               California as of [______], 2007;

          (f)  resolutions adopted by the unanimous written consent of Netli's
               Board of Directors on February 2, 2007, as certified by the
               Secretary of Netli, relating to the execution and delivery of,
               and the performance by Netli of its obligations under, the Merger
               Agreement;

(3)  Listed Agreements shall include: the top 25 customer or reseller contracts
     (determined by revenue as of the signing date); contracts numbered 1-3 on
     Section 2.2(e) of the Disclosure Schedule, to the extent they survive
     Closing; all warrants outstanding at the Effective Time; Mountain view real
     property lease.



          (g)  resolutions adopted by the stockholders of Netli on February
               [__], 2007, relating to the approval and adoption of the Merger
               Agreement; and

          (h)  the minute books and stock records of Netli in our possession as
               of the date hereof, which Netli has certified to us as accurate
               and complete.

With your consent we have relied upon the foregoing, including the
representations and warranties of Netli in the Merger Agreement, and upon
certificates of officers of Netli, with respect to certain factual matters. We
have not independently verified such factual matters. Whenever a statement
herein is qualified by "to the best of our knowledge" or a similar phrase, it is
intended to indicate that those attorneys in this firm who have rendered legal
services in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement do not have current actual knowledge of the inaccuracy of such
statement. However, except as otherwise expressly indicated, we have not
undertaken any independent investigation to determine the accuracy of any such
statement.

We are opining herein as to the effect on the subject transaction only of the
federal laws of the United States, the internal laws of the State of California
and, solely with respect to paragraphs 1, 2, 3(i), 3(iii) and 3(iv) of this
letter, the General Corporation Law of Delaware (the "DGCL"), and we express no
opinion with respect to the applicability thereto, or the effect thereon, of the
laws of any other jurisdiction or, in the case of Delaware, any other laws or as
to any matters of municipal law or the laws of any local agencies within any
state. Our opinions herein are based upon our consideration of only those
statutes, rules and regulations which, in our experience, are normally
applicable in transactions of the type contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
Various issues pertaining to enforceability of the Merger Agreement are
addressed in the opinion of Richards, Layton & Finger, separately provided to
you. We express no opinion with respect to those matters herein.

Subject to the foregoing and to the qualifications set forth below it is our
opinion that, as of the date hereof:

          1. Netli is a corporation under the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware (the "DGCL") with the corporate power and authority to enter
into the Merger Agreement and perform its obligations thereunder. Based solely
on the certificates from public officials referred to in clauses (d) and (e)
above, we confirm that Netli is validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Delaware and is qualified to do business in the State of
California.

          2. The execution, delivery and performance of the Merger Agreement has
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of Netli, and the Merger
Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Netli.

          3. The execution and delivery by Netli of the Merger Agreement, and
the consummation by Netli of the transactions contemplated thereby, on the date
hereof do not:

               (i) violate the provisions of the Company Governing Documents;

               (ii) result in the breach of or default under any of the Listed
     Agreements;

               (iii) violate the DGCL, or any federal or California statute,
     rule or regulation generally applicable to Netli;

               (iv) with the exception of [______], require any consents,
     approvals, or authorizations to be obtained by Netli from, or any
     registrations, declarations or filings to be



     made by Netli with, any governmental authority, under the DGCL, or any
     federal or California statute, rule, regulation applicable to Netli on or
     prior to the date hereof that have not been obtained or made; or

               (v) upon consummation of the Merger (as defined in the Merger
     Agreement), all then outstanding options and warrants to acquire capital
     stock of Netli shall be converted into options and warrants to acquire
     shares of Buyer Common Stock (as defined in the Merger Agreement) in
     accordance with Section 1.9 of the Merger Agreement.

          4. To the best of our knowledge, and except as set forth in Section
2.19 of the Disclosure Schedule of the Merger Agreement, there is no Legal
Proceeding which is pending or has been threatened in writing against Netli or
any Subsidiary. With respect to the foregoing opinion, we have not performed any
court docket searches or other investigation.

Our opinions are subject to:

          (a) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent
     transfer, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the
     rights or remedies of creditors generally;

          (b) the effects of general principles of equity, whether considered in
     a proceeding in equity or at law (including the possible unavailability of
     specific performance or injunctive relief), concepts of materiality,
     reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and the discretion of the
     court before which a proceeding is brought;

          (c) the invalidity under certain circumstances under law or court
     decisions of provisions for the indemnification of a party with respect to
     a liability where such indemnification is contrary to public policy; and

          (d) we express no opinion with respect to (i) consents to, or
     restrictions upon, governing law, jurisdiction, venue, arbitration,
     remedies or judicial relief; (ii) advance waivers of claims, defenses,
     rights granted by law, or notice, opportunity for hearing, evidentiary
     requirements, statutes of limitation, trial by jury or at law, or other
     procedural rights; (iii) waivers of broadly or vaguely stated rights; (iv)
     covenants not to compete; (v) provisions for exclusivity, election or
     cumulation of rights or remedies; (vi) provisions authorizing or validating
     conclusive or discretionary determinations; (vii) grants of setoff rights;
     (viii) provisions to the effect that a guarantor is liable as a primary
     obligor, and not as a surety; (ix) provisions for the payment of attorneys'
     fees where such payment is contrary to law or public policy and we call
     your attention to the provisions of Section 1717s and 1717.5 of the
     California Civil Code, which limit and create obligations for the payment
     of attorneys' fees; (x) proxies, powers and trusts; (xi) except as set
     forth in paragraph 3(ii) of this letter, provisions prohibiting,
     restricting, or requiring consent to assignment or transfer of any right or
     property; (xii) provisions for liquidated damages, default interest, late
     charges, monetary penalties, prepayment or make-whole premiums or other
     economic remedies to the extent such provisions are deemed to constitute a
     penalty; and (xiii) the severability, if invalid, of provisions to the
     foregoing effect.

We express no opinion as to securities laws, tax laws, antitrust or trade
regulation laws, insolvency or fraudulent transfer laws, antifraud laws, pension
or employee benefit laws, environmental laws or other laws excluded by customary
practice.

Insofar as our opinions require interpretations of the Listed Agreements, with
your consent, (i) we have assumed that all courts of competent jurisdiction
would enforce such agreements in accordance with their plain meaning, (ii) to
the extent that any questions of legality or legal construction have arisen in
connection with our review, we have applied the laws of the State of California
in resolving such



questions, although certain of the Listed Agreements may be governed by other
laws, and (iii) we express no opinion with respect to any matters which require
the performance of a mathematical calculation or the making of a financial or
accounting determination.

With your consent, we have assumed (a) that the Merger Agreement has been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by, each of the parties thereto other than
Netli, (b) the Merger Agreement constitutes a legally valid and binding
obligation of each of the parties thereto, enforceable against each of them in
accordance with their respective terms, and (c) that the status of the Merger
Agreement as legally valid and binding obligations of the parties is not
affected by any (i) breaches of, or defaults under, agreements or instruments,
(ii) violations of statutes, rules, regulations or court or governmental orders,
or (iii) failures to obtain required consents, approvals or authorizations from,
or make required registrations, declarations or filings with, governmental
authorities, provided that we make no such assumption to the extent we have
specifically opined as to such matters with respect to Netli herein.

In addition, we have been asked to provide certain information concerning the
capitalization of Netli. Based solely upon a certificate of an officer of Netli
delivered to us in connection herewith and our review of the stock records and
the minute books relating to meetings and written actions of the Board of
Directors of Netli in our possession as of the date hereof, as the case may be,
without giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement,
there were [_____] Common Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement), [_____]
Series A Preferred Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement), [_____] Series B
Preferred Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement), [_____] Series B-1
Preferred Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement), [_____] Series C
Preferred Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and [_____] shares Series
D Preferred Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement) issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Closing contemplated by the Merger Agreement and such
shares have been duly authorized, fully paid and are non-assessable. Although we
have no knowledge that the information as to Netli's capital stock provided by
Netli and reflected above is incorrect, based on the limited examination
referred to above, we are not in a position to verify its accuracy or
completeness, other than to say that the records provided to us are not
inconsistent with such information.

This letter is furnished only to you and is solely for your benefit in
connection with the transactions referenced in the first paragraph. This letter
may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or furnished to, assigned
to, quoted to or relied upon by any other person, firm or other entity for any
purpose, without our prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in
our discretion.

                                        Very truly yours,


                                        ----------------------------------------

Based upon, and subject to, the foregoing assumptions and the qualifications set
out below, and having regard to such legal considerations as we deem relevant,
we are of the Opinion that:

     3.1  ORGANIZATION & EXISTENCE On August 29, 2005, the Company was approved
          to be set up as a wholly foreign funded enterprise under PRC laws with
          a business term of thirty (30) years. A Business License
          (No. ______026861) was issued by Beijing Administration for Industry
          and Commerce on August 30, 2005.

          The Company (a) is a wholly foreign owned enterprise duly established
          and validly existing as a foreign investment enterprise with limited
          liability under PRC laws; (b) is an independent legal entity capable
          of suing, being sued and entering into contractual relationship with
          binding force with any party; (c) has the lawful power and authority
          (i) to conduct Business (as defined in its business license) and (ii)
          to assume civil liability with respect to its assets; and (d) is
          currently and has been, since its formation, in compliance with all
          applicable PRC laws and regulations for the establishment and
          operation of the company; (e) has passed the annual inspection for the
          year 2005 carried out by the relevant PRC authorities in respect of
          its business license; and (f) has passed the annual inspection for the
          IDC license for the year 2005 in accordance with our inquires with
          .the Beijing Administration of Telecommunications.

     3.2  TOTAL INVESTMENT & REGISTERED CAPITAL The Company's original approved
          total investment is USD three hundred and seventy five thousand [USD
          375,000] and approved registered capital is USD two hundred and sixty
          two thousand and five hundred [USD 262,500]. According to Beijing
          Wanlong Songde Certified Public Accountants Co., Ltd.'s verification
          report, by Aug 15, 2006, the Company had fully contributed its
          registered capital of USD two hundred and sixty two thousand and five
          hundred [USD262,500]. On Jan 17, 2007, the Company obtained an updated
          Certificate of Approval from Beijing Foreign Investment Committee,
          authorizing the increase of the registered capital of the Company to
          USD five hundred and twenty five thousand [USD 525,000] and the total
          investment to USD seven hundred and fifty thousand [USD 750,000].
          However, the capital verification report reflecting the capital
          increase of the Company has not been provided to us by the Company.
          There is no evidence suggesting that the increased registered capital
          has been fully contributed by the Target Company as the date of this
          Opinion.

     3.3  The Target Company has good and valid title to 100% equity interest in
          the registered capital of the Company. The above-mentioned title is
          free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, pledges, disputes or
          claims.

     3.4  BUSINESS SCOPE As reflected in the current Certificate of Approval and
          the current Business License of the Company, the Company has been
          approved and authorized by the competent PRC authority the business
          scope of "not to engage in any business which is prohibited under law,
          regulation or state foreign-investment industry policy; not to engage
          in any business for which approval is required under law or regulation
          or which is restricted under state foreign-investment enterprise
          policy without obtaining approval; and self-selected business and
          development of economic activities in which neither law nor regulation
          requires approval and which is not restricted under state foreign
          investment industry policy."

     3.5  APPROVALS, LICENSES, CONSENTS & REGISTRATION The Company has obtained
          from the relevant PRC governmental, regulatory and other authorities
          including Business License, Certificate of Approval, and complied
          with, all valid and lawful licenses, approvals, consents and permits
          necessary for its due incorporation and valid existence and the
          carrying on of its business effectively and without hindrance in the
          manner and in the place where its registered address is



          located and places in which its business is now carried on and to own
          its assets and there are no circumstances which might lead to the
          suspension, alteration or cancellation of any such licenses,
          approvals, consents and permits, nor is there any agreement which
          materially restricts the fields within which it may carry on the PRC
          Business.

     3.6  Yi Tong is entitled to perform Internet Data Center services ("IDC
          SERVICES") in Beijing under its IDC License. Pursuant to the Exclusive
          Technical Consulting and Services Agreement, the Company's business
          consists of the provision of various technical services to Yi Tong
          relating to Yi Tong's performance of services under its IDC license.

     3.7  According to PRC laws and regulations and the results of consultation
          with the Ministry of Information Industry ("MII") regarding the
          qualification of the entity that can engage in IDC services in PRC,
          only a purely domestic funded company can engage in IDC services. Yi
          Tong, as a domestic funded company, was granted a local IDC License [
          No._B2-20050073 ] by Beijing Administration of Telecommunications.
          Therefore, Yi Tong is entitled to engage in IDC services in Beijing
          but not elsewhere in the PRC. The services stipulated in the Exclusive
          Technical Consulting and Services Agreement entered into by and
          between the Company and Yi Tong are permissible and said Agreement is
          valid and effective. The Company has no other Value Added
          Telecommunications Service Operation Licenses but Yi Tong's affiliate,
          Chengdu Yi Tong Rui Jin Information Technology Co., Ltd
          (______________), was granted a local IDC License No._B2-20050261 by
          Sichuan Administration of Telecommunications. Therefore, Chengdu Yi
          Tong Rui Jin Information Technology Co., Ltd is entitled to engage in
          IDC services in Sichuan but not elsewhere in the PRC.

     3.8  Unless otherwise specified below in this Opinion, each of the
          Transaction Documents executed prior to the date of this Opinion and
          governed by the laws of the PRC is valid and binding on all the
          parties thereto.

     3.9  According to the PROVISIONS ON THE ADMINISTRATION OF FOREIGN-FUNDED
          TELECOMMUNICATIONS ENTERPRISE issued by the State Council of China
          (the "PROVISIONS") and the CIRCULAR OF THE MINISTRY OF INFORMATION
          INDUSTRY ON INTENSIFYING THE ADMINISTRATION OF FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN
          VALUE-ADDED TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICES issued by MII (the
          "Circular"), a wholly foreign owned enterprise is not allowed to
          engage in value-added telecommunication services in PRC, and "A
          domestic telecommunications enterprise shall not lease, transfer or
          sell for profits any license for telecommunications business by any
          means or in any disguised form, or provide such conditions as
          resources, places and facilities for any foreign investor to engage in
          any illegal telecommunications operation in any form within the
          territory of China." Therefore, when the Management Agreement is
          terminated in accordance with the Circular, the arrangements
          contemplated in the surviving Transaction Documents shall be in
          compliance with the Provisions and the Circular.

     3.10 When the Consulting Agreement between the Company and Ning Libo and
          the Consulting Agreement between the Company and Xie Lian
          (collectively referred to as the "CONSULTING AGREEMENTS") are
          terminated, the arrangements contemplated in the surviving Transaction
          Documents shall be in compliance with the Provisions and the Circular.

     3.11 The Indemnification Agreement by and between the Company and Ning Libo
          is valid and enforceable on its terms.

     3.12 When the Undertaking and Declaration of Trust by and between Ning Libo
          and AJ Technologies Limited and the Undertaking and Declaration of
          Trust by and between Xie Lian and



          AJ Technologies Limited (collectively referred to as the "TRUST
          AGREEMENTS") are terminated, the arrangements contemplated in the
          surviving Transaction Documents shall be in compliance with the
          Provisions and the Circular.

     3.13 The pledges of stock of the Members of Yi Tong under the Stock Pledge
          Agreement shall be valid and effective under the PRC SECURITY LAW and
          its INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BY THE SUPREME PEOPLE'S COURT OF THE PRC
          upon recordation in the Register of Members of Yi Tong.

     3.14 The execution of the Equity Transfer Option Agreement with Xie Lian
          and Ning Libo and the realization by the Company of its rights
          thereunder do not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the
          terms or provisions of the Articles of Association of the Company or
          any law, public rule or regulation applicable to the Company in PRC
          currently in force. Assuming the PRC government permits entities like
          the Company to hold IDC licenses in China on a joint venture or wholly
          foreign-owned enterprise bases, the Agreement herein can be
          enforceable at that time.

     3.15 Unless otherwise described in this Opinion, the arrangements between
          the Company, Yi Tong and each of Yi Tong's shareholders, as reflected
          in the Transaction Documents, are valid and effective and not subject
          to any encumbrances or liens, and do not violate any laws or
          regulations of the PRC.

     3.16 The Legal Representative of the Company has full power and authority
          under its Articles of Association to execute and deliver the
          transaction documents to which the Company is a Party.

     3.17 Neither the execution and delivery by the Target Company or the
          Company of the transaction documents, nor the consummation by the
          Target Company or the Company of the transactions contemplated
          thereby: (i) conflicts with or violates any provision of the Articles
          of Association of the Company as amended or restated to date; or, to
          our knowledge based on due inquiry of the Company; (ii) conflicts
          with, results in a breach of, constitutes (with or without due notice
          or lapse of time or both) a default under, results in the acceleration
          of, creates in any party the right to accelerate, terminate, modify or
          cancel or requires any notice, consent or waiver (which has not been
          obtained) under any contract, lease, sublease, license, sublicense,
          franchise, permit indenture or other agreement or instrument to which
          the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound; or (iii)
          results in the imposition of any security interest upon any assets of
          the Company..

     3.18 To our knowledge based on due inquiry of the Company, there are no
          legal or administrative proceedings pending or threatened in writing
          against the Company or with respect to its business with Yi Tong as
          described herein, nor are either the Company or Yi Tong in violation
          of any PRC law or in breach of any contract as listed in the
          transaction documents hereinbefore which would materially affect its
          business as described herein.

     3.19 The choice of law and the selection of the dispute resolution
          procedure and venue under the transaction documents are valid,
          effective and enforceable under PRC law.

This Legal Opinion is provided to you by us in our capacity as your PRC legal
counsel for the Transaction and may not be relied upon by any other persons or
corporate entities or used for any other purpose without our prior written
consent.



                                        Yours faithfully,

__________ __, 2007
Akamai Technologies, Inc.
8 Cambridge Center
Cambridge, MA 02142

Ladies and Gentlemen:

          We have acted as special Delaware counsel to Netli, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the Agreement and Plan of
Merger, dated as of January __, 2007, by and among (i) Akamai Technologies,
Inc., a Delaware corporation, (ii) Lode Star Acquisition Corp., a Delaware
corporation, (iii) the Company, (iv) Alta Funds, Bessemer Funds, Granite Global
Funds, LeapFrog Ventures, L.P., Morgenthaler Partners VII. L.P. (collectively,
the "Principal Stockholders"), (v) Nokia Funds and Reed-Elsevier Ventures 2004
Partnership L.P. and (vi) Gary Messiana, John Metzger, Soren Lindkvist, Willie
Tejada and Andrew Robinson (collectively, the "Non-competition Parties") (the
"Merger Agreement"). In this connection, you have requested our opinion
concerning certain matters under Delaware law. Capitalized terms used but not
defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Merger
Agreement.

          For the purpose of rendering our opinions as expressed herein, we have
been furnished and have reviewed the following:

          12.13 the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company as filed in the
office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "Secretary of
State") on March 1, 2000, as amended by the Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation of the Company as filed in the office of the Secretary of State on
August 1, 2000, as further amended by the Second Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation of the Company as filed in the office of the
Secretary of State on May 22, 2002, as further amended by the Third Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company as filed in the office of
the Secretary of State on May 27, 2004, as further amended by the Fourth Amended
and Restated Certificate of Incorporation as filed in the office of the
Secretary of State on September 28, 2004, and as further amended by the Fifth
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation as filed in the office of the
Secretary of State on February 2, 2006 (collectively, the "Charter");

          12.14 the By-laws of the Company (the "By-laws");

          12.15 the Merger Agreement, without schedules or exhibits; and

          12.16 a certificate of an officer of the Company, dated the date
hereof as to certain factual matters.

          With respect to the foregoing documents, we have assumed: (a) the
genuineness of all signatures, and the incumbency, authority, legal right and
power and legal capacity under all applicable laws and regulations, of each of
the officers and other persons and entities (other than the Company) signing or
whose signatures appear upon such documents as or on behalf of the parties
thereto; (b) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals; (c)
the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted to us as
certified, conformed, photostatic, electronic or other copies; and (d) that the
forms submitted to us for our review have not been and will not be altered or
amended in any respect material to our opinion as expressed herein. For the
purpose of rendering our opinions as expressed herein, we have not reviewed any
document other than the documents set forth above, and we assume there exists no
provision of any such other document that bears upon or is inconsistent with our
opinions



as expressed herein. We have conducted no independent factual investigation of
our own, but rather have relied as to factual matters solely upon the foregoing
documents, the statements and information set forth therein, and the additional
matters recited or assumed herein, all of which we assume to be true, complete
and accurate in all material respects.

          In addition to the foregoing, for the purpose of rendering our
opinions as expressed herein, we have, with your consent, assumed the following
matters:

          (a) that each of the parties to the Merger Agreement (other than the
Company and any natural person) is duly incorporated or organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
incorporation or organization;

          (b) that the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of the
Merger Agreement by each of the parties thereto (other than the Company and any
natural person) do not conflict with, or result in a violation of, the
certificate of incorporation and bylaws or the partnership agreement and any
other organizational documents of such party;

          (c) that each of the parties to the Merger Agreement who is a natural
person has the legal capacity to execute and deliver the Merger Agreement;

          (d) that each of the parties to the Merger Agreement (other than the
Company) has the requisite capacity, power and authority under its certificate
of incorporation and bylaws or its partnership agreement or other organizational
documents or other natural persons, as the case may be, to execute and deliver,
and to perform its obligations under, the Merger Agreement;

          (e) that the Merger Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by each of the parties thereto (other than the Company);

          (f) that the Merger Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of each of the parties thereto (other than the Company and the
Principal Stockholders), enforceable against each such party in accordance with
its terms;

          (g) that the Board of Directors of the Company has complied with its
fiduciary duties in approving the Merger Agreement;

          (h) that the Merger Agreement has not been terminated in accordance
with the terms thereof; and

          (i) that the restrictions contained in Section 203 of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "General Corporation Law") are not
applicable to the Company pursuant to subsection (b)(4) thereof.

          Based upon and subject to the foregoing and based upon our review of
such matters of law as we have deemed necessary and appropriate in order to
render our opinion as expressed herein, and subject to the assumptions,
limitations, exceptions and qualifications set forth herein, it is our opinion
that:

          the Company is duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws
of the State of Delaware; and

          12.17 the Merger Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation
of the Company



and the Principal Stockholders under the laws of the State of Delaware,
enforceable against the Company and the Principal Stockholders in accordance
with its terms; and

          12.18 [upon the filing by the Company of the Certificate of Merger
with the Secretary of State and the payment of the requisite taxes and fees, the
Merger will be effective under the General Corporation Law.]

          The foregoing opinions are subject to the following limitations,
assumptions, exceptions and qualifications:

          We are admitted to practice law in the State of Delaware and do not
hold ourselves out as being experts on the law of any other jurisdiction. The
foregoing opinions are limited to the laws of the State of Delaware currently in
effect, and we have not considered and express no opinion on the effect of the
laws of any other state or jurisdiction, including state or federal laws
relating to securities or other federal laws, or the rules and regulations of
stock exchanges or of any other regulatory body. In addition, we have not
considered and express no opinion as to the applicability of or any compliance
with the Delaware Securities Act, 6 Del. C. Section 7301 et seq., or any rules
or regulations promulgated thereunder.

          Our opinion set forth above is subject to (a) applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent transfer and conveyance, moratorium, reorganization,
receivership and similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of the
rights and remedies of creditors generally, (b) principles of equity, including
principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless
of whether considered and applied in a proceeding in equity or at law or pursuit
to arbitration), and (c) the discretion of the court before which any proceeding
in respect of the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby may
be brought.

          We express no opinion (i) with respect to the enforceability or
validity of any provision of the Merger Agreement that purports to obligate the
parties thereto to cause other persons or entities to take certain actions or
act in a certain way insofar as such provision relates to the actions of such
other persons or entities, (ii) with respect to the enforceability and validity
of the provisions of the Merger Agreement to the extent that such provisions
purport to bind the directors of the Company in the exercise of their fiduciary
duties or to bind parties not signatory thereto, (iii) as to any provisions of
the Merger Agreement relating to indemnification or contribution obligations (to
the extent that such provisions may be held to be against public policy or may
be limited by 10 Del. C. Section 3912 (concerning collection of attorneys' fees
in causes of action brought for the enforcement of an instrument in writing)),
(iv) as to any waivers or releases set forth in the Merger Agreement, except to
the extent not prohibited by applicable law, (v) with respect to the Merger
Agreement, the enforceability of Sections 1.9(a), (b) and (c) (to the extent the
validity or enforceability of such sections depend on the terms of an Option,
Restricted Stock or the Warrants, respectively and/or the actions of third
parties), Section 4.4(h) (to the extent such provision purports to restrict the
amendment of the By-laws by the stockholders of the Company), Section 4.7(a) (to
the extent such provision applies prior to obtaining the Requisite Stockholder
Approval), the last sentence of each of Sections 1.5(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and
(f) (to the extent that the provisions thereof are not limited to a pro rata
adjustment), the first sentence of Section 1.7(d), the last sentence of Section
1.10(d), Sections 1.13(a) and (b), Section 1.14(a) (to the extent such provision
purports to remove the Company's directors and officers through the Merger
Agreement) and Section 6.2(e) (to the extent such provision is inconsistent with
the Delaware Uniform Arbitration Act, 10 Del. C. Section 5701 et seq.).

          For purposes of this opinion, we assume that notice of the approval of
the Merger Agreement by written consent of the stockholders of the Company is
promptly sent to each Company stockholder who did not consent in writing in
accordance with Section 228 of the General Corporation Law, and that notice of
appraisal rights is sent to each non-consenting stockholder of the Company in



accordance with Section 262 of the General Corporation Law.

          Our opinion as expressed herein does not encompass any agreement or
document referred to in or incorporated by reference into the Merger Agreement.

          With respect to the submission to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts sitting in the State of New York as set forth in
Section 12.11 of the Merger Agreement, a Delaware court would recognize the
validity of such submission provided that it was a knowing and voluntary consent
and a material and freely negotiated element of the Merger Agreement which was
not procured by fraud, and that the enforcement of such provision would not be
unreasonable under the circumstances (including by reason of the inconvenience
of the State of New York as a forum for litigation or the unavailability of
certain remedies) and would not contravene any federal statute or the public
policy of the State of Delaware or be inconsistent with the public interest and
the administration of justice. The foregoing opinion is rendered solely for your
benefit in connection with the matters discussed herein and, without our prior
written consent, may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose or be
furnished or quoted to or relied upon by any other person or entity for any
purpose.

Very truly yours,

     BONUS. If the Board of Directors approves an annual bonus for fiscal year
2007, you may be eligible for a discretionary award of up to ___% of your

employment with the Company will be on an "at-will" basis, meaning that either
you or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time, for
any reason, with or without cause and with or without notice. Although your job
duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company's personnel
policies and procedures, may change from time to time, the "at-will" nature of
your employment may only be changed by a written agreement signed by you and the
Chief Executive Officer of the Company, which expressly states the intention to
modify the at-will nature of your employment.

     PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, DEVELOPMENTS AND NON-SOLICITATION
AGREEMENT. As a condition of the Merger and in consideration of the benefits you
are receiving therefrom, you are required to execute the Company's standard
Proprietary and Confidential Information, Developments and Non-Solicitation

any employment contract, restrictive covenant or other restriction preventing
you from entering into employment with or carrying out your responsibilities for
the Company, or which is in any way inconsistent with the terms of this letter.
Please note that this offer letter is your formal offer of employment and
supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous agreements, discussions and
understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter of this
letter or your employment with the Company or Northstar, including without
limitation the agreement between you and Northstar dated [__________]; provided,
however, that the terms of the Stock Option Plan governing options of Northstar
common stock granted to you prior to the Closing will continue to govern the
terms of such



options following the Closing. The resolution of any disputes under this letter
will be governed by Massachusetts law.

     If this letter correctly sets forth the initial terms under which you will
be employed by the Company, please sign the enclosed duplicate of this letter in
the space provided below, along with the attached forms, and return them to me.

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-3



Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is furnished to you in connection with a Registration Statement on
Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), for the registration of an aggregate of 2,785,034 shares of
Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Shares"), of Akamai Technologies,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). All of the Shares are being
registered on behalf of certain stockholders of the Company (the "Selling
Stockholders").

We are acting as counsel for the Company in connection with the registration for
resale of the Shares. We have examined signed copies of the Registration
Statement filed with the Commission. We have also examined and relied upon
minutes of meetings of the stockholders and the Board of Directors of the
Company as provided to us by the Company, stock record books of the Company as
provided to us by the Company, the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of
the Company, each as restated and/or amended to date, and such other documents
as we have deemed necessary for purposes of rendering the opinions hereinafter
set forth.

In our examination of the foregoing documents, we have assumed the genuineness
of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as
originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us
as copies, the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents and the
legal competence of all signatories to such documents.

Our opinion below, insofar as it relates to the Selling Stockholders' shares
being fully paid, is based solely on a certificate of the Vice President and
General Counsel of the Company confirming the Company's receipt of the
consideration called for by the applicable resolutions authorizing the issuance
of such shares.

We assume that the appropriate action will be taken, prior to the offer and sale
of the Shares, to register and qualify the Shares for sale under all applicable
state securities or "blue sky" laws.

We express no opinion herein as to the laws of any state or jurisdiction other
than the state laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United
States of America.

March 27, 2007
Page 2

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares
have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

It is understood that this opinion is to be used only in connection with the
offer and sale of the Shares while the Registration Statement is in effect.

Please note that we are opining only as to the matters expressly set forth
herein, and no opinion should be inferred as to any other matters. This opinion
is based upon currently existing statutes, rules, regulations and judicial
decisions, and we disclaim any obligation to advise you of any change in any of
these sources of law or subsequent legal or factual developments which might
affect any matters or opinions set forth herein.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement in accordance with the requirements of
Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act and to the use of our
name therein and in the related prospectus under the caption "Legal Matters." In
giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the
rules and regulations of the Commission


Very truly yours,
