                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

   This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus;
it does not contain all the information you should consider before buying
shares in this offering. You should read the entire prospectus carefully before
making a decision whether to purchase our common stock.

                                   Interwoven

   Interwoven is a leading provider of software products and services that help
businesses and other organizations manage the information that makes up the
content of their web sites. In the Internet industry, this is often referred to
as "web content management." We have designed our software products to help
companies rapidly and efficiently develop, maintain and extend large web sites
that are essential to their businesses. Our principal product, TeamSite,
incorporates widely accepted Internet industry standards and is designed with
an open architecture that allows it to support a wide variety of Internet
software products, including web authoring tools and web application servers.
Using TeamSite, our customers can manage web content, control the versions of
their web sites, manage web site contribution and content approval processes,
and develop Internet applications. TeamSite allows large numbers of
contributors across an enterprise to add web content in a carefully-managed
process. In addition, our OpenDeploy product allows customers to automate the
distribution of web content across multiple web sites.

   As leading companies demonstrate success on the Internet, business leaders
are seeking to capitalize on new business opportunities, reach a broader
customer base and reduce overall operating costs by moving their businesses to
the Internet. The use of the Internet to conduct business is frequently
referred to as "Internet commerce" or "eBusiness." Companies are making
significant investments to develop and deploy these eBusiness initiatives.
International Data Corporation, or IDC, estimates that spending on software
applications and services for Internet commerce will grow from $7.8 billion in
1998 to $53.8 billion in 2002.

   The competitive online environment is driving companies to deploy complex
web sites that offer enhanced user experiences. These web sites can contain
hundreds of thousands of content-rich web pages, and this content has been
increasing in volume and complexity. In addition, today's web sites must be
updated frequently by numerous contributors throughout an enterprise. Web teams
find it difficult to manage the increasing complexity, volume and variability
of this content. At the same time, the large number of web authoring tools and
web application servers have contributed to the increasing technological
complexity involved in developing and maintaining web sites. These trends have
created a need for content management software that can accommodate the
increasing volume of web content, leverage existing investments in computers,
software and associated information technology infrastructure, and allow more
contributors to add content to a web site. IDC estimates that one of the
markets in which we participate, which they refer to as the web development
life-cycle management software market, will grow from $76.4 million in 1998 to
$1.6 billion in 2003.

   Interwoven's content management software assists customers in accelerating
their time-to-web--the rate at which they can deploy new content on their web
sites--by enabling them to develop multiple eBusiness applications
simultaneously. It lowers web operating costs by reducing a customer's
dependence on highly-paid web professionals and reducing the time required to
test and approve new content for a web site or eBusiness application. The
scalability of our products also allows customers to manage hundreds of
thousands of web files and enables hundreds of employees throughout the
enterprise to contribute web content. In addition, our software's architecture
is non-proprietary and based on recognized industry standards, so it enables
businesses to take advantage of existing investments in technology and web
content and, at the same time, to integrate new technologies and applications
easily.

                                  RISK FACTORS

   You should carefully consider the risks described below before buying shares
in this offering. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only
risks we face. These risks are the ones we consider to be significant to your
decision whether to invest in our common stock at this time. We might be wrong.
There may be risks that you in particular view differently than we do, and
there are other risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to us or
that we currently deem immaterial, but that may in fact impair our business
operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, results
of operations and financial condition could be seriously harmed, the trading
price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your
investment.

Our operating history is limited, so it will be difficult for you to evaluate
our business in making an investment decision.

   We were incorporated in March 1995 and have a limited operating history. We
are still in the early stages of our development, which makes the evaluation of
our business operations and our prospects difficult. We shipped our first
product in May 1997. Since that time, we have derived substantially all of our
revenues from licensing our TeamSite product and related services. Before
buying our common stock, you should consider the risks and difficulties
frequently encountered by early stage companies in new and rapidly evolving
markets, particularly those companies whose businesses depend on the Internet.
These risks and difficulties, as they apply to us in particular, include:

  .  potential fluctuations in operating results and uncertain growth rates;

  .  limited market acceptance of our products;

  .  concentration of our revenues in a single product;

  .  our dependence on a small number of orders for most of our revenue;

  .  our need to expand our direct sales forces and indirect sales channels;

  .  our need to manage rapidly expanding operations; and

  .  our need to attract and train qualified personnel.

If we do not increase our license revenues significantly, we will fail to
achieve profitability.

   We have incurred net losses in each quarter since our inception, and we
expect our net losses to increase. We incurred net losses of approximately
$510,000 in 1996, $2.9 million in 1997, $6.3 million in 1998 and $6.2 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1999. As of June 30, 1999, we had an
accumulated deficit of approximately $16.5 million. To compete effectively, we
plan to continue to invest aggressively to expand our sales and marketing,
research and development, and professional services organizations. As a result,
if we are to achieve profitability we will need to increase our revenues
significantly, particularly our license revenues. We cannot predict when we
will become profitable, if at all.

Our operating results fluctuate widely and are difficult to predict, so we may
fail to satisfy the expectations of investors or market analysts and our stock
price may decline.

   Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past,
and we expect them to continue to fluctuate unpredictably in the future. It is
possible that in some future periods our results of operations may not meet or
exceed the expectations of public market analysts and investors. If this
occurs, the price of our common stock is likely to decline.

                                       6
<PAGE>


Our quarterly results depend on a small number of large orders, so the loss of
any single large order could harm those results and cause our stock price to
drop.

   Each quarter, we derive a significant portion of our license revenues from a
small number of relatively large orders. For example, in the first and second
quarters of 1999, our top five customers accounted for 41% and 30%,
respectively, of the total revenue in those quarters. We expect that we will
continue to depend upon a small number of large orders for a significant
portion of our license revenues. As a result, our operating results could
suffer if any large orders are delayed or cancelled in any future period.

We face significant competition, which could make it difficult to acquire and
retain customers and inhibit any future growth.

   We expect the competition in the market in which we operate to persist and
intensify in the future. Competitive pressures may seriously harm our business
and results of operations if they inhibit our future growth, or require us to
hold down or reduce prices, or increase our operating costs. Our competitors
include:

  .  potential customers that utilize in-house development efforts;

  .  developers of software that directly addresses the need for web content
     management, such as Vignette.

In addition, we face potential competition from companies--for example,
Microsoft and IBM--that may decide in the future to enter our market. Many of
our existing and potential competitors have longer operating histories greater
name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial,
technical and marketing resources than we do. Many of these companies can also
leverage extensive customer bases and adopt aggressive pricing policies to gain
market share. Potential competitors may bundle their products in a manner that
discourages users from purchasing our products. Barriers to entering the web
content management software market are relatively low.

The market for our products is new and customers may not accept our products.

   The market for web content management software in which we sell is new and
rapidly evolving. While we have licensed our products to over 85 customers, we
expect that we will continue to need intensive marketing and sales efforts to
educate prospective clients about the uses and benefits of our products and
services. Potential customers that have invested substantial resources in other
methods of conducting business over the Internet may be reluctant to adopt a
new approach that may replace, limit or compete with their existing systems.
Any of these factors could inhibit the growth of the market, and market
acceptance of our products and services in particular. We cannot be certain
that a viable market for our products will emerge, or if it does emerge, that
it will be sustainable.

Our lengthy sales cycle makes it particularly difficult for us to forecast
revenue, requires us to incur high costs of sales, and aggravates the
variability of quarterly fluctuations.

   Because our software products impact a large number of departments within an
enterprise and are implemented in conjunction with strategic business
initiatives, our customers typically commit significant time and resources to
comparing and evaluating our products, internal solutions and other
commercially available applications. These evaluations require us to expend
substantial time, effort and money educating the customers about the value of
our products and services. The time between initial contact with a potential
customer and the ultimate sale, which we refer to as our sales cycle, typically
ranges between three and nine months depending largely on the customer. To
shorten our sales cycle, we must establish a large number of referenceable
customers. Failure to do so will make it less likely that we can reduce sales
and marketing expenses. In addition, as a result of our lengthy sales cycle, we
have only a limited ability to forecast the timing and size of specific sales.
This makes it more difficult to predict quarterly financial performance, or to
achieve it, and any delay in completing sales in a particular quarter could
harm our business and cause our operating results to vary significantly.

We rely heavily on sales of one product, so if it does not achieve market
acceptance we are likely to experience larger losses.

   Since 1997, we have generated substantially all of our revenues from
licenses of, and services related to, our TeamSite product. We believe that
revenues generated from TeamSite will continue to account for a large portion
of our revenues for the foreseeable future. A decline in the price of TeamSite,
or our inability to increase license sales of TeamSite, would seriously harm
our business and operating results more seriously than it would if we had
several different products and services to sell. In addition, our future
financial performance will depend upon successfully developing and selling
enhanced versions of TeamSite and the products. If we fail to deliver product
enhancements or new products that customers want it will be more difficult for
us to succeed.

We depend on our direct sales force to sell our products, so future growth will
be constrained by our ability to hire and train new sales personnel.

   We sell our products primarily through our direct sales force, and we expect
to continue to do so in the future. Our ability to sell more products is
limited by our ability to hire and train direct sales personnel, and we believe
that there is significant competition for direct sales personnel with the
advanced sales skills and technical knowledge that we need. Some of our
competitors may have greater resources to hire personnel with that skill and
knowledge. If we are not able to hire experienced and competent sales
personnel, our business would be harmed. Furthermore, because we depend on our
direct sales force, any turnover in our sales force can significantly harm our
operating results. Sales force turnover tends to slow sales efforts until
replacement personnel can be recruited and trained to become productive. See
"--We must attract and retain qualified personnel, which is particularly
difficult for us because we compete with other Internet-related software
companies and are located in the San Francisco Bay area where competition for
personnel is extremely intense."

If we do not develop our indirect sales channel, we will be less likely to
increase our revenues.

   To date, we have sold our products principally through our direct sales
organization. By relying primarily on a direct sales model, we may miss sales
opportunities that might be available through other sales channels. For
example, domestic and international resellers may be able to reach new
customers more quickly or more effectively than our direct sales force. Our
ability to achieve revenue growth and to increase worldwide sales in the future
will depend in large part upon our success in expanding and maintaining
relationships with existing system integrators and Internet professional
services firms and establishing relationships with additional firms. Although
we are currently investing and plan to continue to invest significant resources
to develop these relationships, we may not be able to build an indirect channel
that will be able to market our products effectively and will be qualified to
provide timely and cost-effective customer support and services. In addition,
we may not be able to manage conflicts across our various sales channels, and
our focus on increasing sales through our indirect channel may divert
management resources and attention from direct sales.

If we do not improve our operational systems on a timely basis, we will be more
likely to fail to manage our growth properly.

   We have expanded our operations rapidly in recent years. We intend to
continue to expand our operational systems for the foreseeable future to pursue
existing and potential market opportunities. This rapid growth places a
significant demand on management and operational resources. In order to manage
our growth, we need to implement and improve our operational systems,
procedures and controls on a timely basis. If we fail to implement and improve
these systems in a timely manner, our business will be seriously harmed.

Difficulties in introducing new products and upgrades in a timely manner will
make market acceptance of our products less likely.

   The market for our products is characterized by rapid technological change,
frequent new product introductions and Internet-related technology
enhancements, uncertain product life cycles, changes in customer demands and
evolving industry standards. We expect to add new content management
functionality to our product offerings by internal development, and possibly by
acquisition. Content management technology is

                                       8
<PAGE>


more complex than most software, and new products or product enhancements can
require long development and testing periods. Any delays in developing and
releasing new products could harm our business. New products or upgrades may
not be released according to schedule or may contain defects when released.
Either situation could result in adverse publicity, loss of sales, delay in
market acceptance of our products or customer claims against us, any of which
could harm our business. If we do not develop, license or acquire new software
products, or deliver enhancements to existing products on a timely and cost-
effective basis, our business will be harmed.

Our products might not be compatible with all major platforms, which could
limit our revenues.

   Our products currently operate on the Microsoft Windows NT and Sun Solaris
operating systems. In addition, our products are required to interoperate with
leading web content authoring tools and web application servers. We must
continually modify and enhance our products to keep pace with changes in these
applications and operating systems. If our products were to be incompatible
with a popular new operating system or Internet business application, our
business would be harmed. In addition, uncertainties related to the timing and
nature of new product announcements, introductions or modifications by vendors
of operating systems, browsers, back-office applications, and other Internet-
related applications, could also harm our business.

Risks associated with international operations are new to us, so we may find it
more difficult to expand overseas.

   To date, we have derived all of our revenues from sales to North American
customers. We plan to expand our international operations in the future. There
are many barriers to competing successfully in the international arena,
including:

  .  costs of customizing products for foreign countries;

  .  restrictions on the use of software encryption technology;

  .  dependence on local vendors;

  .  compliance with multiple, conflicting and changing governmental laws and
     regulations;

  .  longer sales cycles; and

  .  import and export restrictions and tariffs.

As a result of these competitive barriers, we cannot assure you that we will be
able to market, sell and deliver our products and services in international
markets.

It is important for us to establish and maintain strategic relationships.

   To offer products and services to a larger customer base our direct sales
force depends on strategic partnerships and marketing alliances to obtain
customer leads, referrals and distribution. If we are unable to maintain our
existing strategic relationships or fail to enter into additional strategic
relationships, we will have to devote substantially more resources to the sale
and marketing of our products and services. We would also lose anticipated
customer introductions and co-marketing benefits. Our success depends in part
on the success of our strategic partners and their ability to market our
products and services successfully. In addition, our strategic partners may not
regard us as significant for their own businesses. Therefore, they could reduce
their commitment to us or terminate their respective relationships with us,
pursue other partnerships or relationships, or attempt to develop or acquire
products or services that compete with our products and services. Even if we
succeed in establishing these relationships, they may not result in additional
customers or revenues.

We must attract and retain qualified personnel, which is particularly difficult
for us because we compete with other Internet-related software companies and
are located in the San Francisco Bay area where competition for personnel is
extremely intense.

   Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain qualified,
experienced employees. We compete for experienced engineering, sales and
consulting personnel with Internet professional services firms, software
vendors, consulting and professional services companies. It is also
particularly difficult to recruit and retain

                                       9
<PAGE>


personnel in the San Francisco Bay area, where we are located. In addition, our
customers generally purchase consulting and implementation services. While we
have recently established relationships with some third-party service
providers, we continue to be the primary provider of these services. It is
difficult and expensive to recruit, train and retain qualified personnel to
perform these services, and we may from time to time have inadequate levels of
staffing to perform these services. As a result, our growth could be limited
due to our lack of capacity to provide those services, or we could experience
deterioration in service levels or decreased customer satisfaction, any of
which would harm our business.

If our services revenues do not grow substantially, our total revenues are
unlikely to increase.

   Our services revenues represent a significant component of our total
revenues--21% of total revenues for 1998 and 35% of total revenues for the six
months ended June 30, 1999. We anticipate that services revenues will continue
to represent a significant percentage of total revenues in the future. To a
large extent, the level of services revenues depends upon our ability to
license products which generate follow-on services revenue. Additionally,
services revenues growth depends on ongoing renewals of maintenance and service
contracts. Moreover, if third-party organizations such as systems integrators
become proficient in installing or servicing our products, our services
revenues could decline. Our ability to increase services revenues will depend
in large part on our ability to increase the capacity of our professional
services organization, including our ability to recruit, train and retain a
sufficient number of qualified personnel.

We might not be able to protect and enforce our intellectual property rights, a
loss of which could harm our business.

   We depend upon our proprietary technology, and rely on a combination of
patent, copyright and trademark laws, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures
and contractual provisions to protect it. We currently do not have any issued
United States or foreign patents, but we have applied for one U.S. patent. It
is possible that a patent will not issue from our currently pending patent
application or any future patent application we may file. We have also
restricted customer access to our source code and required all employees to
enter into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements. Despite our
efforts to protect our proprietary technology, unauthorized parties may attempt
to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard
as proprietary. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect
our proprietary rights as effectively as the laws of the United States, and we
expect that it will become more difficult to monitor use of our products as we
increase our international presence. In addition, third parties may claim that
our products infringe theirs.

Our failure to deliver defect-free software could result in greater losses and
harmful publicity.

   Our software products are complex and have in the past and may in the future
contain defects or failures that may be detected at any point in the product's
life. We have discovered software defects in the past in some of our products
after their release and we may experience delays or lost revenue to correct
those defects in the future. Despite our testing, defects and errors may still
be found in new or existing products, and may result in delayed or lost
revenues, loss of market share, failure to achieve acceptance, reduced customer
satisfaction, diversion of development resources and damage to our reputation.
As has occurred in the past, new releases of products or product enhancements
may require us to provide additional services under our maintenance contracts
to ensure proper installation and implementation. Moreover, third parties may
develop and spread computer viruses that may damage the functionality of our
software products. Any damage to or interruption in the performance of our
software could also harm our business.

Defects or errors in our products may result in product liability claims.

   Because customers rely on our products for business critical processes,
defects or errors in our products or services might result in tort or warranty
claims. It is possible that the limitation of liability provisions in our
contracts will not be effective as a result of existing or future federal,
state or local laws or ordinances or unfavorable judicial decisions. We have
not experienced any product liability claims like this to date, but we

                                       10
<PAGE>


could in the future. Further, although we maintain errors and omissions
insurance, this insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover us. A
successful product liability claim could harm our business. Even defending a
product liability suit, regardless of its merits, could harm our business
because it entails substantial expense and diverts the time and attention of
key management personnel.

Year 2000 concerns by our customers could cause them to defer purchases of our
products.

   We may experience reduced sales of products as customers and potential
customers put a priority on correcting their own Year 2000 problems or avoiding
new ones and therefore defer purchases of our products until later in 2000. As
a result, the demand for our products may be particularly volatile and
unpredictable for the remainder of 1999 and early 2000.

Year 2000 problems with our products may increase our costs.

   Our products are generally integrated into enterprise computer systems
involving sophisticated hardware and complex software products, which may not
be Year 2000 compliant. We may in the future be subject to claims based on Year
2000 problems in other parties' products, Year 2000 problems alleged to be
found in our products, Year 2000-related issues arising from the integration of
multiple products within an overall system, or other similar claims. We also
need to ensure Year 2000 compliance of our own internal computer and other
systems, to continue testing our software products, to audit the Year 2000
compliance status of our suppliers and business partners, and to conduct a
legal audit. We have not conducted a comprehensive Year 2000 investigation of
our internal systems and do not intend to do so. The total cost of Year 2000
compliance may be material and may harm our business.

Acquisitions may harm our business by being more difficult than expected to
integrate or by diverting management's attention.

   In July 1999, we acquired Lexington Software Associates, Inc., a software
consulting company, to help support our existing customer base and to help
attract and retain new customers. We may be unable to integrate this company
into ours successfully, and our business may not benefit as expected. As part
of our business strategy, we may seek to acquire or invest in additional
businesses, products or technologies that we feel could complement or expand
our business. If we identify an appropriate acquisition opportunity, we might
be unable to negotiate the terms of that acquisition successfully, finance it,
or integrate it into our existing business and operations. We may also be
unable to select, manage or absorb any future acquisitions successfully.
Further, the negotiation of potential acquisitions, as well as the integration
of an acquired business, would divert management time and other resources. We
may have to use a substantial portion of our available cash, including proceeds
of this offering, to consummate an acquisition. On the other hand, if we
consummate acquisitions through an exchange of our securities, our stockholders
could suffer significant dilution. In addition, we cannot assure you that any
particular acquisition, even if successfully completed, will ultimately benefit
our business.

If widespread Internet adoption does not continue, or if the Internet cannot
accommodate continued growth, our business will be harmed because it depends on
growth in the use of the Internet.

   Acceptance of our products depends upon continued adoption of the Internet
for commerce. As is typical in the case of an emerging industry characterized
by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and frequent new
product and service introductions, demand for and acceptance of recently
introduced products and services are subject to a high level of uncertainty. To
the extent that businesses do not consider the Internet a viable commercial
medium, our customer base may not grow. In addition, critical issues concerning
the commercial use of the Internet remain unresolved and may affect the growth
of Internet use. The adoption of the Internet for commerce, communications and
access to content, particularly by those who have historically relied upon
alternative methods, generally requires understanding and accepting new ways of
conducting business and exchanging information. In particular, companies that
have already invested substantial resources

                                       11
<PAGE>

in other means of conducting commerce and exchanging information may be
particularly reluctant or slow to adopt a new, Internet-based strategy that may
render their existing infrastructure obsolete. If the use of the Internet fails
to develop or develops more slowly than expected, our business may be seriously
harmed.

   To the extent that there is an increase in Internet use, an increase in
frequency of use or an increase in the required bandwidth of users, the
Internet infrastructure may not be able to support the demands placed upon it.
In addition, the Internet could lose its viability as a commercial medium due
to delays in development or adoption of new standards or protocols required to
handle increased levels of Internet activity. Changes in, or insufficient
availability of, telecommunications or similar services to support the Internet
also could result in slower response times and could adversely impact use of
the Internet generally. If use of the Internet does not continue to grow or
grows more slowly than expected, or if the Internet infrastructure, standards,
protocols or complementary products, services or facilities do not effectively
support any growth that may occur, our business would be seriously harmed.

There is substantial risk that future regulations could be enacted that either
directly restrict our business or indirectly impact our business by limiting
the growth of Internet commerce.

   As Internet commerce evolves, we expect that federal, state or foreign
agencies will adopt new legislation or regulations covering issues such as user
privacy, pricing, content and quality of products and services. If enacted,
these laws, rules or regulations could indirectly harm us to the extent that
they impact our customers and potential customers. We cannot predict if or how
any future legislation or regulations would impact our business. Although many
of these regulations may not apply to our business directly, we expect that
laws regulating or affecting commerce on the Internet could indirectly harm our
business.

Our existing stockholders control a majority of our stock.

   Immediately after the closing of this offering, approximately 48% of our
outstanding capital stock will be owned by our directors and executive officers
or their affiliated entities. As a result, these stockholders, acting together,
would be able to control all matters requiring approval by the stockholders,
including the election of all directors and approval of significant corporate
transactions.

We have various mechanisms in place to discourage takeover attempts, which
might tend to suppress our stock price.

   Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws that may
discourage, delay or prevent a change in control include:

  .  we are authorized to issue "blank check" preferred stock, which could be
     issued by our board of directors to increase the number of outstanding
     shares and thwart a takeover attempt;

  .  we provide for the election of only one-third of our directors at each
     annual meeting of stockholder, which slows turnover on the board of
     directors;

  .  we limit who may call special meetings of stockholders;

  .  we prohibit stockholder action by written consent, so all stockholder
     actions must be taken at a meeting of our stockholders; and

  .  we require advance notice for nominations for election to the board of
     directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by
     stockholders at stockholder meetings.

   In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporations Law and our
stock incentive plans may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of
us. See "Description of Capital Stock--Anti-Takeover Provisions."


                                       12
<PAGE>


Purchasers in this offering will incur immediate and substantial dilution.

   The initial public offering price of our common stock will be substantially
higher than the book value per share of the outstanding common stock. As a
result, if we were liquidated for book value immediately following this
offering, each stockholder purchasing in this offering would receive less than
they paid for their common stock. To the extent that outstanding options to
purchase our common stock are exercised, or options or warrants reserved for
issuance are issued and exercised, each stockholder purchasing in this offering
will experience further substantial dilution.

Our stock price could be affected by more shares becoming available for sale.

   If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the
public market following this offering, the market price of our common stock
could fall. Based on shares outstanding as of June 30, 1999, upon completion of
this offering, we will have 21,642,241 shares of common stock outstanding.
Other than the 3,000,000 shares of common stock sold in this offering, no
shares will be eligible for sale in the public market immediately. The limited
number of shares available for resale may affect the liquidity of the market
for those shares. Our stockholders are subject to agreements with the
underwriters or us that restrict their ability to transfer their stock for 180
days from the date of this prospectus. After these agreements expire, an
additional 15,690,149 shares will be eligible for sale in the public market. If
many of these shares are sold when they become available for resale, the market
price of our common stock may decline. For a detailed discussion of the shares
eligible for future sale, please see "Shares Eligible for Future Sale."

                                USE OF PROCEEDS

   We estimate that we will receive net proceeds of approximately $29.5 million
from the sale of 3,000,000 shares of our common stock ($34.1 million if the
underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full) at an assumed
initial public offering price of $11.00 per share and after deducting estimated
underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. The
primary purposes of this offering are to obtain additional working capital,
create a public market for our common stock, facilitate our future access to
public capital markets and provide liquidity to existing stockholders.

   We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering primarily for additional
working capital and other general corporate purposes, including increased
research and development expenditures, sales and marketing expenditures, and
general and administrative expenditures. We have not yet determined our
expected use of these proceeds, but we currently estimate that we will incur at
least $30 million in operating expenses during the next 12 months to expand our
investments in research and development, sales and marketing, and general and
administrative operations. These operating expenses will be partially offset by
the degree to which we continue to derive revenues and related gross margin
from the licensing of our software products and delivery of services.

   The amounts and timing of these expenditures will vary depending on a number
of factors, including the amount of cash generated by our operations,
competitive and technological developments and the rate of growth, if any, of
our business. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire
additional businesses, products and technologies, to lease additional
facilities, or to establish joint ventures that we believe will complement our
current or future business. However, we have no specific plans, agreements or
commitments to do so and are not currently engaged in any negotiations for any
acquisition or joint venture.

   We will retain broad discretion in the allocation of the net proceeds of
this offering. Pending the uses described above, we will invest the net
proceeds of this offering in short-term to medium-term interest-bearing,
investment-grade securities. We cannot predict whether the proceeds will be
invested to yield a favorable return. We believe that our available cash,
together with the net proceeds of this offering, will be sufficient to meet our
capital requirements for at least the next 12 months.

                                DIVIDEND POLICY

   We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock or other
securities, and we do not anticipate paying a cash dividend in the foreseeable
future. Our lines of credit currently prohibit the payment of dividends.

                                    DILUTION

   The pro forma net intangible book value of our common stock as of June 30,
1999, after giving effect to the conversion of all outstanding shares of
preferred stock into common stock, was $24.1 million, or approximately $1.29
per share. Pro forma net tangible book value per share represents the amount of
our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of
shares of common stock outstanding. Assuming our sale of 3,000,000 shares of
common stock offered at an assumed initial public offering price of $11.00 per
share, and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and
estimated offering expenses, our pro forma net tangible book value as of June
30, 1999 would have been $53.6 million, or $2.48 per share. This represents an
immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value of $1.19 per share to
existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of
$8.52 per share to new investors. Investors participating in this offering will
incur immediate, substantial dilution. The following table illustrates the per
share dilution:

   The following table summarizes, on a pro forma basis, as of June 30, 1999,
the differences between the number of shares of common stock purchased from us,
the total consideration paid and the average price per share paid by existing
stockholders and by the new investors purchasing shares in this offering. We
have assumed an initial public offering price of $11.00 per share, and we have
not deducted estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated
offering expenses in our calculations.

</TABLE>

   This discussion of dilution, and the table quantifying it, assume no
exercise of any outstanding stock options. The exercise of stock options
outstanding under our stock option plans having an exercise price less than the
offering price would increase the dilutive effect to new investors. If the
underwriters exercise their over-allotment in full, the following will occur:

  .  the number of shares of common stock held by existing stockholders will
     decrease to approximately 84.4% of the total number of shares of our
     common stock outstanding; and

  .  the number of shares held by new investors will increase to 3,450,000,
     or approximately 15.6% of the total number of our common stock
     outstanding after this offering.

        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results
of operations should be read in conjunction with "Selected Financial Data" and
our Financial Statements and Notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

OVERVIEW

   Interwoven was incorporated in March 1995 to provide software products and
services for web content management. Designed specifically for the web, our
products allow large teams of people across an enterprise to contribute and
edit web content on a collaborative basis, reducing the time-to-web for
critical eBusiness initiatives. From March 1995 through March 1997, we were a
development stage company conducting research and development for our initial
products. In May 1997, we shipped the first version of our principal product,
TeamSite. We have subsequently developed and released enhanced versions of
TeamSite and have introduced related products. As of June 30, 1999, we had sold
our products and services to over 75 customers. We market and sell our products
primarily through a direct sales force and augment our sales efforts through
relationships with systems integrators and other strategic partners. We are
headquartered in Sunnyvale, California and maintain additional offices in the
metropolitan areas of Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle and
Washington, D.C. Our revenues to date have been derived exclusively from
accounts in North America. In May 1999, we opened an office in the United
Kingdom.

   We derive revenues from the license of our software products and from
services we provide to our customers. To date, we have derived virtually all of
our license revenues from licenses of TeamSite. License revenues are recognized
when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, the product has been
delivered, no significant post-delivery obligations remain, the license fee is
fixed or determinable and collection of the fee is probable. Services revenues
consist of professional services and maintenance fees. Professional services
primarily consist of software installation and integration, business process
consulting and training. We generally bill our professional services customers
on a time and materials basis and recognize revenues as the services are
performed. Maintenance agreements are typically priced based on a percentage of
the product license fee, and typically have a one-year term that is renewable
annually. Services provided to customers under maintenance agreements include
technical product support and an unspecified number of product upgrades as
released by us during the term of a maintenance agreement. Revenues from
maintenance support agreements are recognized ratably over the term of the
agreement.

   Since inception, we have incurred substantial costs to develop our
technology and products, to recruit and train personnel for our engineering,
sales and marketing and services organizations, and to establish an
administrative organization. As a result, we have incurred net losses in each
quarter since inception and, as of June 30, 1999, had an accumulated deficit of
$16.5 million. We anticipate that our cost of services revenues and operating
expenses will increase substantially in future quarters as we grow our services
organization to support an increased level and expanded number of services
offered, increase our sales and marketing operations, develop new distribution
channels, fund greater levels of research and development, and improve
operational and financial systems. Accordingly, we expect to incur additional
losses for the foreseeable future as we continue to expand our operations. In
addition, our limited operating history makes the prediction of future results
of operations difficult and, accordingly, there can be no assurance that we
will achieve or sustain profitability.

   On July 1, 1999, we acquired Lexington Software Associates, Inc. As a result
of this acquisition, we have substantially increased our professional services
organization. The Lexington Software acquisition added 18 employees to the 118
employees we had as of June 30, 1999. See Note 9 of Notes to Financial
Statements.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1999

 Revenues

   Total revenues increased 456% from $900,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1998 to $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. This increase
was attributable to greater market acceptance of our products and services
after their introduction in 1997 and an increase in the number of sales and
marketing staff, resulting in an increased number of customers.

   License. License revenues increased 429% from $624,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
License revenues represented 70% and 65% of total revenues, respectively, in
those periods. The increase in license revenues reflects a 260% growth in
customers and a 66% increase in the average contract license fee per customer.

   Services. Services revenues increased 549% from $262,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
Services revenues represented 30% and 35% of total revenues, respectively, in
those periods. The increase in services revenues reflected an increase in both
professional services and maintenance fees generated from an expanded number of
customers who licensed our products.

 Cost of Revenues

   License. Cost of license revenues includes expenses incurred to manufacture,
package and distribute software products and related documentation, as well as
costs of licensing third-party software sold in conjunction with our software
products. Cost of license revenues was not significant for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and increased to $119,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
Cost of license revenues

represented 4% of license revenues in the six months ended June 30, 1999. The
increase in cost of license revenues reflects increased sales of third-party
products sold in conjunction with our software products. Cost of license
revenues may fluctuate from period to period as we sell higher or lower numbers
of third-party products.

   Services. Cost of services revenues consists primarily of salary and related
costs of our professional services, training, maintenance and support staffs,
as well as subcontractor expenses. Cost of services revenues increased 300%
from $350,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $1.4 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1999. Cost of services revenues represented 134% and
82% of services revenues, respectively, in those periods. This increase in
dollar amounts was directly attributable to an increase in the number of in-
house and subcontracted staff used to provide services to our expanded customer
base.

   We expect our cost of services revenues to increase in dollar amounts as a
result of the increased staffing of our professional services organization due
to our acquisition of Lexington Software and through our continued expansion of
our services staff and consulting organizations. Since services revenues have
substantially lower margins than license revenues, this expansion would reduce
our gross margins if our license revenues were not to increase significantly.
We expect cost of services revenues as a percentage of services revenues to
vary from period to period depending on the mix of services we provide, whether
the services are performed by our in-house staff or subcontractors, and the
overall utilization rates of professional services staff.

 Gross Profit

   Gross profit increased 553% from $536,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1998 to $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Gross profit
represented 60% and 69% of total revenues, respectively, in those periods. This
increase in dollar amounts reflects increased license and services revenues
from a growing customer base. We expect gross profit as a percentage of total
revenues to fluctuate from period to period as a result of changes in the
relative proportion of license and services revenues.

 Operating Expenses

   Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist
primarily of personnel and related costs to support product development.
Research and development expenses increased 131% from $735,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30,
1999, representing 83% and 34% of total revenues, respectively, in those
periods. This increase in dollar amounts was due to increases in the number of
product development personnel. We believe that continued investment in research
and development is critical to our strategic objectives, and we expect that the
dollar amounts of research and development expenses will increase in future
periods. To date, all software development costs have been expensed in the
period incurred.

   Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of
salaries and related costs for sales and marketing personnel, sales
commissions, travel and marketing programs. Sales and marketing expenses
increased 271% from $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $5.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, representing 153% and 104% of
total revenues, respectively, in those periods. This increase in dollar amounts
reflects increases in the number of our sales and marketing personnel costs of
$1.6 million, higher sales commissions and bonuses of $1.0 million and
increased marketing related costs of $200,000. We expect to continue to invest
heavily in sales and marketing in order to expand our customer base and
increase brand awareness. We also anticipate that the percentage of total
revenues represented by sales and marketing expenses will fluctuate from period
to period primarily depending on when we hire new sales personnel, the timing
of new marketing programs and the levels of revenues in each period.

   General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of salaries and related costs for accounting, human resources, legal
and other administrative functions, as well as provisions for doubtful
accounts. General and administrative expenses increased 110% from $572,000 for
the six months

                                       21
<PAGE>

ended June 30, 1998 to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999,
representing 65% and 25% of total revenues, respectively. This increase in
dollar amounts was due to additional staffing of these functions to support
expanded operations during this same period. We expect general and
administrative expenses to increase in dollar amounts in 1999 as we add
personnel to support expanding operations, incur additional costs related to
the growth of our business, and assume the reporting requirements of a public
company.

   Amortization of Deferred Stock-Based Compensation. In 1998 and the first six
months of 1999, we recorded deferred stock-based compensation of $1.9 million
and $6.7 million in connection with stock options granted during 1998 and 1999,
respectively. These amounts represent the difference between the exercise price
of stock options granted during those periods and the deemed fair value of our
common stock at the time of the grants. Amortization of deferred stock-based
compensation was $347,000 and $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30,
1998 and 1999, respectively. We expect per quarter amortization related to
these options of approximately $1.0 million during the remainder of 1999,
between $500,000 and $750,000 during 2000, between $270,000 and $400,000 during
2001, between $100,000 and $185,000 during 2002 and $50,000 in the quarter
ended March 31, 2003.

 Interest Income (Expense), Net

   Interest income, net, increased from $57,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1998 to $154,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 due to higher
average cash balances.

 Income Taxes

   As of June 30, 1999, we had approximately $10.8 million of federal and $1.7
million of state net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future
taxable income, expiring in 2015 and 2010 for federal and state tax purposes,
respectively. Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the amounts of and benefits
from net operating loss carryforwards may be impaired or limited. Events which
cause limitation in the amount of net operating losses that we may utilize in
any one year include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of
more than 50%, as defined, over a three year period. We have provided a full
valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset because of the uncertainty
regarding its realization. Our accounting for deferred taxes under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 involves the evaluation of a number of
factors concerning the realizability of our deferred tax assets. In concluding
that a full valuation allowance was required, management primarily considered
factors such as our history of operating losses and expected future losses and
the nature of our deferred tax assets. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial
Statements.

Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998

 Revenues

   We had no revenues in 1996. Total revenues increased from $168,000 in 1997
to $4.0 million in 1998. This increase was attributable to greater market
acceptance of our software products after their introduction in 1997 and an
increase in the number of sales and marketing staff, resulting in an increased
number of customers.

   License. License revenues increased from $84,000 in 1997 to $3.2 million in
1998. License revenues represented 50% and 79% of total revenues, respectively,
in those periods. The increase in license revenues reflects growth from the low
level of revenue in 1997, our first year in which we licensed our products.

   Services. Services revenues increased from $84,000 in 1997 to $827,000 in
1998. Services revenues represented 50% and 21% of total revenues,
respectively, in those periods. The increase in services revenues reflects an
increase in both professional services and maintenance fees generated from an
expanded number of customers who licensed our products.

                                       22
<PAGE>

 Cost of Revenues

   License. We had no cost of license revenues in 1996 or 1997. Cost of license
revenues in 1998 was $59,000 and represented 2% of license revenues in 1998.
The increase in cost of license revenues reflects increased sales of third-
party products sold in conjunction with our software products.

   Services. We had no cost of services revenues in 1996. Cost of services
revenues increased from $95,000 in 1997 to $1.3 million in 1998. Cost of
services revenues represented 113% and 154% of services revenues, respectively,
in those periods. This increase was due to an increase in the number of in-
house and subcontracted staff used to provide services to our expanded customer
base.

 Gross Profit

   Gross profit increased from $73,000 in 1997 to $2.7 million in 1998,
representing 43% and 67% of total revenues, respectively, in those periods.
This increase reflected increased license and services revenues from a growing
customer base.

 Operating Expenses

   Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased from
$328,000 in 1996 to $884,000 in 1997 and $1.8 million in 1998. Research and
development expenses represented 526% and 45% of total revenues in 1997 and
1998, respectively. This increase in dollar amounts was due to increases in the
number of product development personnel.

   Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased from $101,000 in
1996 to $1.5 million in 1997 and $4.8 million in 1998. Sales and marketing
expenses represented 904% and 120% of total revenues in 1997 and 1998,
respectively. The increase in dollar amounts from 1996 to 1997 reflects
increases in sales and marketing personnel costs of $900,000 and increased
marketing related costs of $100,000. The increase in dollar amounts from 1997
to 1998 reflects increases in sale and marketing personnel costs of
$1.4 million, higher sales commissions and bonuses of $900,000 and increased
marketing related costs of $200,000.

   General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased
from $91,000 in 1996 to $530,000 in 1997 and $1.7 million in 1998, representing
315% and 43% of total revenues in 1997 and 1998, respectively. This increase in
dollar amounts reflects additional staffing of these functions to support
expanded operations during this same period.

   Amortization of Deferred Stock-Based Compensation. In 1998 we recorded
deferred stock-based compensation of $1.9 million, $812,000 of which was
amortized in 1998.

 Interest Income (Expense), Net

   Interest income, net, decreased from $10,000 in 1996 to a net interest
expense of $88,000 in 1997 and increased to a net interest income of $151,000
in 1998. The decrease from 1996 to 1997 reflected increased interest expense on
promissory notes issued in conjunction with the sale of our preferred stock.
The increase from 1997 to 1998 was due to increased interest income earned from
cash balances on hand as a result of sales of our preferred stock in March,
October, November and December 1998, partially offset by increased interest
expense.

   Our license and services revenues have grown in each of the six quarters in
the period ended June 30, 1999, except that our license revenues declined in
the three month period ended March 31, 1999 from that in the three month period
ended December 31, 1998. This decline reflected the unusually high revenues in
the prior period, due in part to a few large license sales in that period. In
addition, many companies that license enterprise-scale software products to
large customers experience seasonal declines in the first fiscal quarter
following the end of their fiscal year. Because of our limited operating
history, we do not know whether this pattern was responsible for the declines
in the three months ended March 31, 1999, or whether it will apply to future
quarterly results. As a general matter, we depend on sales to a relatively few
large customers. As a result, our revenues are subject to period-to-period
fluctuations reflecting the impact of a few large sales.

   Increased services revenues beginning in the three month period ended March
31, 1999 reflect an increase in both professional services and maintenance fees
generated from an expanded number of customers which had licensed our products
in prior periods, and an increase in the number of professional services staff
and a higher effective staff utilization rate.

   As a result of our limited operating history and the emerging nature of the
market for web content management software and services in which we compete, it
is difficult for us to forecast our revenues or earnings accurately. It is
possible that in some future periods our results of operations may not meet or
exceed the expectations of public market analysts and investors. If this
occurs, the price of our common stock is likely to decline. Factors that have
caused our results to fluctuate in the past, and are likely to cause
fluctuations in the future, include:

  .  the size of customer orders and the timing of product and service
     deliveries;

  .  variability in the mix of products and services sold;

  .  our ability to retain our current customers and attract new customers;

  .  the amount and timing of operating costs relating to expansion of our
     business, including our planned international expansion;

  .  the announcement or introduction of new products or services by us or
     our competitors;

  .  our ability to attract and retain personnel, particularly management,
     engineering and sales personnel and technical consultants;

  .  our ability to upgrade and develop our systems and infrastructure to
     accommodate our growth; and

  .  costs related to acquisition of technologies or businesses.

   In addition, our products are typically shipped when orders are received, so
license backlog at the beginning of any quarter in the past has represented
only a small portion of expected license revenues for that quarter. Moreover,
we typically recognize a substantial percentage of revenues in the last month
of the quarter, frequently in the last week or even the last days of the
quarter. As a result, at the beginning of a quarter we have no assurance about
the levels of sales in that quarter, and the delay or cancellation of any large
orders can result in a significant shortfall from anticipated revenues. These
factors make license revenues in any quarter difficult to forecast. Since our
expenses are relatively fixed in the near term, any shortfall from anticipated
revenues, could result in significant variations in operating results from
quarter to quarter and harm to our business.

   As a result of these and other factors, we believe that period-to-period
comparisons of our results of operations may not be meaningful and should not
be relied upon as indicators of our future performance.

                                       25

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   Since inception, we have funded our operations through private sales of
equity securities. We raised a total of $37.0 million, net of offering costs,
from the issuance of preferred stock. At June 30, 1999, our sources of
liquidity consisted of $25.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $22.6
million in working capital. We have a $3.0 million line of credit and a $1.5
million equipment line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank, each of which bear
interest at the bank's prime rate, which was 7.75% at June 30, 1999, plus
0.25%. At June 30, 1999, the line of credit was unused and $1.5 million was
outstanding under the equipment line of credit. The lines of credit are secured
by all of our tangible and intangible assets, and contain financial covenants
including revenue performance levels and minimum levels of working capital. We
intend to maintain both lines of credit. We are currently in compliance with
all related financial covenants and restrictions.

   Net cash used in operating activities was $2.7 million in 1997 and $6.0
million in 1998. Net cash used in operating activities in 1997 and 1998
reflected net losses and, to a lesser extent, accounts receivable, offset in
part by increases in accrued liabilities. Net cash used in operating activities
was $2.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999. Net cash used in
operating activities reflected increasing net losses offset in part by
reductions in accounts receivable and increases in accounts payable.

   From inception, our investing activities have consisted primarily of
purchases of property and equipment, principally computer hardware and software
for our growing number of employees. Capital expenditures, including those
under capital leases, totaled $176,000, $1.7 million and $561,000 in 1997, 1998
and the six months ended June 30, 1999, respectively. We expect that capital
expenditures will increase with our anticipated growth in operations,
infrastructure and personnel. As of June 30, 1999 we had no material capital
expenditure commitments, other than the acquisition of Lexington Software
Associates, Inc. discussed in Note 9 to our Notes to Financial Statements. We
do not expect to incur significant costs to make our products or internal
information systems Year 2000 compliant because we believe these products and
information systems are designed to function properly through and beyond year
2000.

   Net cash provided by financing activities in 1997, 1998 and the first six
months of 1999 was $3.9 million, $15.8 million and $18.9 million, respectively.
Net cash provided by financing activities reflected primarily the proceeds of
issuances of preferred stock in each of these periods, and, in 1998, included
proceeds from a bank line of credit.

   We believe that the net proceeds of this offering, together with cash and
cash equivalents, and funds available under existing credit facilities, will be
sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for at least the next 12
months. Thereafter, we may require additional funds to support our working
capital requirements or for other purposes and may seek to raise additional
funds through public or private equity financing or from other sources. There
can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable
terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on
acceptable terms, we may be unable to develop or enhance our products, take
advantage of future opportunities, or respond to competitive pressures or
unanticipated requirements, which could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and operating results.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

   In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging
Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters
beginning with the quarter ending June 30, 2000. SFAS 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities.
We will adopt SFAS No. 133 in the quarter ending June 30, 2000 and do not
expect its adoption to have an impact on our results of operations, financial
position or cash flows.

                                       26

Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk

   We develop products in the United States and market our products in North
America, and, to a lesser extent in Europe. As a result, our financial results
could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates
or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Since all of our revenue is
currently denominated in U.S. Dollars, a strengthening of the Dollar could make
our products less competitive in foreign markets. Our interest income and
expense is sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates,
particularly since the majority of our financial investments are short-term.
Due to the short-term nature of our financial investments, we believe that
there is not a material risk exposure.

Year 2000 Compliance

   The Year 2000 issue refers generally to the problems that some software may
have in determining the correct century for the year. For example, software
with date-sensitive functions that is not Year 2000 compliant may not be able
to distinguish whether "00" means 1900 or 2000, which may result in system
failures or erroneous results.

   We have conducted a Year 2000 readiness review for the current and prior
versions of our products. The review includes:

  .  assessment;

  .  implementation, including remediation, upgrading and replacement of non-
     compliant product versions;

  .  validation testing; and

  .  contingency planning.

   We have completed all phases of our plan, except for contingency planning,
with respect to the current and prior versions of all of our products. As a
result, the current and prior versions of each of our products are Year 2000
compliant when configured and used in accordance with the related
documentation, and provided that the underlying operating system of the host
machine and any other software used with or in the host machine or our products
are also Year 2000 compliant.

   We define "Year 2000 compliant" as the ability to:

  .  correctly handle date information needed for the December 31, 1999 to
     January 1, 2000 date change;

  .  function according to the product documentation provided for this date
     change, without changes in operation resulting from the advent of a new
     century, assuming correct configuration;

  .  where appropriate, respond to two-digit date input in a way that
     resolves the ambiguity as to century in a disclosed, defined, and
     predetermined manner;

  .  store and provide output of date information in ways that are
     unambiguous as to century if the date elements in interfaces and data
     storage specify the century; and

  .  recognize year 2000 as a leap year.

   We have not tested our products on all platforms or all versions of
operating systems that our products currently support.

   We are testing licensed software, shareware and freeware obtained from third
parties that is incorporated into our products or sold in conjunction with our
products, and have assurances from our vendors that this licensed software is
Year 2000 compliant. Despite our testing, our products may contain undetected
errors or defects associated with Year 2000 date functions. Known or unknown
errors or defects in our products could result in:

  .  delay or loss of revenue;

  .  diversion of development resources;

                                       27
<PAGE>


  .  damage to our reputation;

  .  increased service and warranty costs; or

  .  liability from our customers.

   Accordingly, errors or defects in our products could seriously harm our
business.

   Some commentators have predicted significant litigation regarding Year 2000
compliance issues, and we are aware of lawsuits against other software
vendors. Because of the unprecedented nature of this litigation, it is
uncertain whether or to what extent we will be affected by it.

   Our internal systems include both our computer and network systems and
other systems. We have initiated an assessment of our most important computer
and network systems and expect to complete the assessment by December 1999. We
have not yet begun to assess the Year 2000 compliance of our other systems,
but we expect to complete this assessment by December 1999. To the extent that
we are not able to assess the technology provided by third-party vendors, we
are seeking assurances from them that their systems are Year 2000 compliant.
Although we are not currently aware of any material operational issues or
costs associated with preparing these systems for the Year 2000, we may
experience unanticipated problems and costs caused by undetected errors or
defects in the technology used in these systems.

   We currently have only limited information concerning the Year 2000
compliance status of our customers. As is the case with other similarly
situated software companies, if our current or future customers fail to
achieve Year 2000 compliance or if they divert technology expenditures,
especially technology expenditures that were reserved for enterprise software,
to address Year 2000 compliance problems, our business could be harmed.

   We have funded our Year 2000 plan from available cash and have not
separately accounted for these costs in the past. To date, these costs have
not been material. We expect to incur additional costs related to the Year
2000 plan for:

  .  administrative personnel to manage the project;

  .  outside contractor assistance;

  .  technical support for our products; and

  .  product engineering and customer satisfaction.

   We may experience material problems and costs with Year 2000 compliance
that could harm our business.

   We have not yet developed a contingency plan to address situations that may
result if we are unable to achieve Year 2000 readiness of our critical
operations and do not anticipate the need to do so. The cost of developing and
implementing a plan may itself be material. Finally, we are also subject to
external forces that might generally affect industry and commerce, such as
utility or transportation company Year 2000 compliance failures and related
service interruptions.

Industry Background

   The use of the Internet to communicate and conduct business is increasing
rapidly. Companies are accelerating their movement to the Internet to
capitalize on new business opportunities, reach broader consumer audiences and
reduce operational costs. Forrester Research estimates that the business-to-
consumer Internet commerce market in the U.S. will grow from $7.8 billion in
1998 to $108.0 billion in 2003. In addition, Forrester Research estimates that
the business-to-business Internet commerce market in the U.S. will grow from
$43.1 billion in 1998 to $1.3 trillion in 2003.

   Migrating to the Web. As leading companies demonstrate revenue growth and
achieve competitive advantage by using the Internet, chief executives and other
senior corporate decision makers are realizing that eBusiness initiatives are
critical for the success of their businesses. As a result, many companies are
developing eBusiness applications to enable them to market and sell products
and services to consumers online, offer web-based customer self-service
programs, implement business-to-business supply chain management solutions, and
migrate other operational functions online. IDC estimates that spending on
software applications and services for Internet commerce will grow from
$7.8 billion in 1998 to $53.8 billion in 2002.

   Moving Online Successfully. To compete online and to capitalize on Internet
revenue opportunities, businesses must rapidly build a differentiated presence
on the web and must continuously maintain and extend that presence. Since
first-mover advantage is amplified on the web, companies must deploy high
quality eBusiness applications quickly to create an online brand and establish
a loyal base of customers. Accelerating the time required to develop and deploy
eBusiness applications, or time-to-web, is essential to attracting customers
and generating revenue opportunities. In addition, to retain customers, a
company must differentiate its web site from competing sites by offering rich,
accurate and relevant content. Once customers discover value in a web site,
they may be less likely to visit competing web sites. Web site reliability is
also important, since customers are only a click away from competitors' sites
and may lose patience with an incomplete or non-functioning web site. Moreover,
poor quality web sites can easily damage a business' online brand.

   Evolving Web Sites. As a result of this competitive environment and the
available online business opportunities, web sites have rapidly evolved from
simple online corporate brochures to complex online storefronts. Early web
sites contained relatively limited content, consisting primarily of static text
and simple graphics. This content was infrequently updated and web sites
required only a few developers to build and maintain them. Today, companies are
seeking to differentiate their online presence and to become leaders on the
Internet by transforming their businesses through sophisticated eBusinesses
applications featuring content-rich web sites. In many cases, the content on
these web sites must be updated on a daily or hourly basis

                                       29
<PAGE>

to meet consumer expectations and to exploit emerging business opportunities.
For example, a large online retailer may need to showcase tens of thousands of
products through the use of graphic images and product descriptions. All of
this information must be continuously refreshed as products are introduced or
discontinued and as descriptive product information is revised. As the volume
of web content has grown and sophisticated eBusiness applications have emerged,
the responsibility for the development and management of web content has
shifted from a few developers in small web teams to many contributors working
in different departments across the enterprise. Furthermore, the large number
of web authoring tools and web application servers required by these
applications have contributed to the increasing technological complexity
involved in developing these web sites.

   Managing Web Content. Web content, such as high-resolution graphics, audio
segments, video clips, hyperlinked text and executable software, is the basis
for every web page and most eBusiness applications. IDC estimates that the
number of web pages will grow from 925 million in 1998 to 13.1 billion in 2003.
In addition, complex eBusiness initiatives may contain hundreds of thousands of
web pages. This dramatic growth in content has created a strong need for
solutions to content management problems. These solutions must be highly
automated to accommodate the volume, complexity and variability of this web
content. In addition, these solutions must leverage existing investments in
information technology, be highly scalable, and enable participation by
increasing numbers of content contributors. IDC estimates that one of the
markets in which we participate, which IDC refers to as the "web development
life-cycle management software" market, will grow from $76.4 million in 1998 to
$1.6 billion in 2003.

   Market Opportunity. Until recently, businesses have attempted to satisfy
their web content management needs largely through in-house solutions. In-house
solutions can be expensive and difficult to maintain, which can increase the
risk of delaying the launch of important eBusiness initiatives. For example,
in-house solutions may need to be extensively re-engineered each time a new web
authoring tool or eBusiness application is introduced. Other businesses have
used third-party solutions, typically turning to either workgroup software or
web publishing software. Workgroup software is generally designed to enable
small groups of developers to manage relatively simple web sites. They
generally do not scale to support large numbers of contributors or the
increasing complexity and volume of web content. Using workgroup software may
impair a company's ability to deliver up-to-date and accurate web content. Web
publishing software is generally designed only to collect and display
information on a web site, and because it is often proprietary, does not
accommodate many popular web authoring tools or web application servers. In
addition, other third-party solutions do not allow large numbers of
contributors to add content to a web site, do not allow web teams to work on
applications simultaneously, and do not integrate new web technologies easily,
thereby slowing the deployment of eBusiness initiatives.

   With the proliferation of eBusiness initiatives, the need has emerged for a
common infrastructure, or "platform," that can enable large and diverse groups
of content contributors, accommodate popular web authoring tools, and integrate
to leading web application servers. An open architecture for such a platform
enables customers to leverage their existing investments in information
technology and facilitates rapid adoption of new web technologies and
standards.

   Our products offer customers the following primary benefits:

   Accelerate eBusiness Revenue Opportunities. Our products enable customers to
migrate their businesses to the web rapidly, thereby increasing their ability
to generate more revenues and compete more effectively. Today, the volume and
complexity of web content and the number of eBusiness applications continue to
grow so rapidly that it can be difficult for businesses to meet their web site
development schedules. Our products enable customers to develop and deploy
multiple eBusiness applications simultaneously. This approach allows companies
to complete their eBusiness initiatives more rapidly. In addition, our products
allow content contributors to perform quality assurance functions on content
modifications, which significantly reduces testing time.

   Reduce Cost of Web Operations. Complex web sites can consist of up to
hundreds of thousands of pages containing both static and dynamic content
supplied by departments throughout the enterprise. As a result, these sites can
be expensive to deploy and manage. Our products lower the costs of web
operations primarily by reducing the dependency on specialized web development
personnel and by improving operating efficiency through automation of workflow
processes, such as task assignment, routing, and approval. Automated workflow
processes can reduce the time required to assemble, test and validate new web
content. In addition, our products support evolving web standards and our open
architecture is compatible with third-party web authoring tools and web
application servers. As a result, businesses can productively leverage their
existing information technology infrastructure.

   Create Highly Differentiated Web Sites. To attract and retain online
customers, today's leading web sites continuously enhance their users' online
experience. Businesses seek to achieve this by introducing new web technologies
and refreshing content frequently. The open architecture of our products
facilitates rapid integration of new web technologies and simultaneous
development of multiple eBusiness applications, such as global supply chain
management, customer relationship management, knowledge management and e-
commerce applications. In addition, our products are highly
scalable, permitting the collaborative efforts of hundreds of contributors to
be coordinated as the need arises.

   Improve Web Site Quality. Protecting brand and image online has become
critical for companies doing business on the Internet. Non-functioning or poor
quality sites can significantly harm a business' online brand. With TeamSite,
companies can create reliable, high-quality web sites. TeamSite enables our
customers to conduct comprehensive testing of the entire web site as it is
built, updated or extended. In addition, TeamSite promotes individual
accountability, and faster and more accurate authoring, by enabling all web
developers and content contributors to control their own portion of the quality
assurance and test process. This improves a site's overall quality. By using
sophisticated workflow processes to maintain quality control, TeamSite also
ensures that no unauthorized or unapproved content or application is deployed
to the customer's site.

The Interwoven Strategy

   Our goal is to establish our software as the platform of choice for web
content management across the enterprise. To achieve this goal, we intend to
pursue the following key strategies:

   Extend Our Position as a Leading Provider of Content Management Software
Products. We intend to extend our leadership in content management solutions by
continuing to offer a comprehensive, easy-to-use software products. Our
feature-rich products address our customers' complete eBusiness life-cycle
needs as they build, maintain and extend their web sites. We intend to expand
our leadership position by introducing enhanced web content management products
that assist our customers in accelerating their eBusiness initiatives, and
aggressively increasing our sales and marketing efforts.

   Become the Preferred Web Development Platform for Industry-Leading Internet
Technology Vendors. We intend to increase demand for our products among the
customers of industry-leading Internet technology vendors. We intend to do so
by providing a robust web development platform to complement their own
eBusiness production applications. Unlike existing closed-architecture, or
proprietary products, our products are designed to integrate easily with the
products of industry-leading technology providers. This is attractive to
Internet technology vendors because it expands their markets and eliminates
costly integration and customization. We intend to continue to strengthen our
existing relationships with vendors such as Allaire, ATG, BroadVision, IBM,
InterWorld, Microsoft and Netscape. We also intend to enter into additional
relationships with other leading technology providers, including additional
reseller relationships. We believe our products can become widely adopted as a
standard web development platform across Internet technology vendors.

   Expand Relationships with Systems Integrators and Internet Professional
Services Firms. We have begun establishing relationships with leading systems
integrators, such as Andersen Consulting, and Internet professional services
firms, such as USWeb/CKS. These firms provide consulting services to assist
their clients in designing and developing eBusiness applications. Our existing
relationships with the leading systems integrators and Internet professional
services firms have allowed us to expand our market reach and increase our
access to senior decision makers. These firms have significant influence on a
customer's technology selection, and their recommendations represent
significant endorsements. We intend to continue to expand and build additional
relationships with key systems integrators and Internet professional services
firms.

   Extend our Technology Leadership Through Adherence to Industry
Standards. Our products integrate easily and cost-effectively with web
authoring tools and web application servers offered by other Internet
technology vendors. In addition, our products have been designed to meet the
demanding openness and scalability required of Internet software products. Our
open architecture supports web authoring tools and web application servers that
adhere to industry standards. The scalability of our products allows customers
to manage hundreds of thousands of computer files that contain web content and
enables hundreds of employees throughout the enterprise to contribute web
content. We intend to continue to invest significantly in research

                                       32
<PAGE>


and development to increase the functionality of our products while adopting
industry standards. We also intend to continue to participate actively in the
promotion of industry standards, such as XML.

   Increase International Sales. As the Internet adoption rate accelerates
overseas, we believe that significant international market demand will exist
for content management solutions, especially in Europe and Asia. We intend to
devote significant resources to penetrate international markets. To that end,
we have begun expanding our overseas direct and indirect sales channels and our
international marketing presence. We have recently opened an office in the
United Kingdom, and intend to open offices in Asia during the next twelve
months.

Products and Services

   Our product line consists of TeamSite, our web content management product,

 TeamSite -- Content Management

   Our flagship product, TeamSite, is a software product that is designed to
develop, maintain and extend large web sites.

     Web Content Management. TeamSite is designed to version, manage and
  control all web content. It supports parallel, distributed content
  contribution across the enterprise. TeamSite allows large numbers of
  contributors across an enterprise to add web content in a carefully-managed
  process. TeamSite is compatible with leading web authoring tools and web
  application servers, allowing businesses to leverage existing investments
  in information technology systems, content and expertise. This enables a
  faster time-to-web for eBusiness initiatives. TeamSite captures and stores
  the history of all modifications to the web content. These content
  histories, or versions, are managed and tracked for individual web files
  and for whole web sites.

     Workflow. TeamSite is designed for a diverse group of users, including
  non-technical and technical users, participating in building and
  contributing content to the web site operations. To facilitate the
  management of these web content contributors, TeamSite automates workflow
  processes such as task assignment, resource scheduling, content routing,
  content approval and web site release.

     Web Application Development. TeamSite provides programmers with a
  software development system that accommodates their choice of software
  development tools. TeamSite's computer file versioning features allow
  programmers to track software code modifications. Using TeamSite,
  programmers can reduce the time required to build, install and test the
  developed software code by working in a copy of the running web site.

   The architecture of TeamSite enables businesses to implement it without
making significant changes to their existing web content or systems
architecture, resulting in rapid implementation. Additionally, TeamSite's open
architecture allows customers to use their preferred web content authoring
software, web application servers and other web-based technologies. TeamSite
currently operates on Sun Solaris and Microsoft Windows NT operating systems.
TeamSite was first shipped in May 1997. We first shipped the current version of
TeamSite, TeamSite 3.1, in May 1999.

   We also license optional software modules with TeamSite that extend its
functionality. TeamSite Templating allows web content to be contributed using
customer-defined templates, thereby eliminating the need for contributors to be
familiar with HTML or client-side applications. TeamSite Global Report Center
enables TeamSite administrators to generate reports on web operations activity.

 OpenDeploy -- Content Replication and Syndication

   Our OpenDeploy software product transfers web content from development to
production web servers. OpenDeploy automates the process of synchronizing web
sites through the precise distribution of content across distributed networks
of web production servers. By automating the process of distributing web
content frequently to multiple web servers, business can maximize web site
availability and minimize web site access time. Customers using OpenDeploy can
also automate the scheduled deployment of content. We believe that OpenDeploy
provides the most effective method for distribution and integration of dynamic
content across web sites.

   OpenDeploy is typically licensed with TeamSite by our customers, but it may
be used on a stand-alone basis. OpenDeploy encrypts content for secure transfer
over TCP/IP. The version of OpenDeploy shipped within the United States uses
128-bit SSL encryption. Due to U.S. export regulations, the international
version does not utilize encryption. OpenDeploy operates on Sun Solaris,
Microsoft Windows NT, IBM AIX and Silicon Graphics IRIX operating systems. We
first shipped OpenDeploy in January 1998. The current version of OpenDeploy
3.0, was first shipped in May 1999.

 Interwoven Services

   Our services organization consists of 41 professional employees who utilize
a comprehensive methodology to deliver our web content management products to
our customers. These services professionals may configure

                                       34
<PAGE>

each solution they deliver to meet the specific needs of the customer. We sell
our services in conjunction with licenses of our software products and include:

  .needs analysis and web operations strategy;

  .software installation and configuration support;

  .project management;

  .workflow mapping;

  .content and web site release management; and

  .education and training.

   In addition to professional services, we offer various levels of product
maintenance to our customers. Maintenance services are typically subject to an
annual, renewable contract and are typically priced as a percentage of product
license fees. Customers under maintenance contracts receive technical product
support and product upgrades as they are released throughout the life of the
maintenance contracts.

Technology

   We believe that our technology offers our customers and partners a highly-
scalable web content management solution that is implemented through an open
architecture that incorporates widely accepted Internet industry standards and
supports a wide variety of web-based software applications. Our products are
specifically designed for the web. Our customers typically use our technology
as the platform to manage their enterprise-wide web content operations.

 Content Management Process. The following graph illustrates how TeamSite
 manages content:


            [flow diagram representing web workflow process (p. 35)]

  A flow chart consisting of several icons representing the web workflow
process. The column of icons on the far left consists of (from top to bottom)
an icon of cascading pages labeled "Text, graphics, audio;" an icon of
cascading pages labeled "Templates;" an icon of cascading pages labeled
"Executable code & scripts;" and a cylindrical icon labeled "Database." Arrows
lead from this column of icons to two circular icons to the right labeled "Work
Areas." Arrows lead from here through a user approval area to a large
rectangular icon of cascading pages labeled "Staging Area." An arrow leads from
here through a final approval area to another large rectangular icon of
cascading pages labeled "Edition." Three arrows lead to the right from this
icon to a column of cylindrical icons labeled "E-Commerce," "Intranet" and
"syndicated Extranet."

   Collaboration Through Work Areas, Staging Areas and Editions. TeamSite
provides a virtual work area for each contributor. A virtual work area is a
local, desktop web site representation that appears to a contributor as a
complete, fully-functioning web site. This provides web developers and
contributors the ability to see changes instantaneously in the development
environment as they would appear in the actual production site.

                                       35
<PAGE>

This approach improves quality by promoting individual accountability, allowing
web developers to discover costly bugs and helping web contributors prevent
deployment of inaccurate content to the production site. Users submit revised
content from work areas to a common staging area, a pre-production version of
the web site which consolidates web site changes. After the consolidated
changes in the staging area are approved, the next edition of the production
site can be authorized and deployed. This content management process makes
site-level rollbacks, site recovery and site audits possible.

   Content Versioning. TeamSite captures the history of modifications to web
content within each contributors' work area as well as the content within the
common staging area. Our comprehensive content versioning technology allows
customers to record and manage all web content modifications and capture
complete histories of all web files. TeamSite Global Report can then be used to
audit and report on historical changes made to a company's web files and site.

   Whole-Site Versioning. An extension of our techniques for content versioning
allows TeamSite to capture editions of the entire web site. As the content for
an edition of an entire web site is approved, a full version of this site can
be captured and recorded providing a complete history of whole site editions.
This provides customers with an effective way to review and roll back to
previous editions of their web sites as necessary for audit, disaster recovery
and compliance requirements.

   Concurrent Development. TeamSite supports multiple contributors working on a
single project, and multiple teams working on many projects simultaneously, by
utilizing a technique we refer to as branching. A development branch typically
consists of many work areas connected to one staging area. Branches, for
example, might represent a company's intranet and extranet sites. When
required, the content within these independent branches can be synchronized.

 Templating

   Our TeamSite Templating module enables non-technical content contributors to
add content through customer-specific style templates, allowing a preferred
look and feel to be leveraged where desired.

 Product Features

   Open Architecture. Our architecture incorporates widely accepted Internet
industry standards and supports a wide variety of web-based software
applications to integrate into our customers' heterogeneous environments. As a
result, TeamSite also integrates with commercially available content web
authoring tools and web application servers that adhere to industry standards.
This allows our customers' content contributors to use their favorite web
authoring software. For example, a graphics designer may use Adobe Photoshop, a
layout expert may use Macromedia Dreamweaver, and a non-technical contributor
may use Microsoft Office 2000, to add content to a site. In addition,
TeamSite's browser interface has been developed primarily in Java and
JavaScript.

   Project Management and Workflow. TeamSite allows customers to manage web
development tasks through automated workflow processes, such as task
assignment, resource scheduling, routing and approval. This enables TeamSite
users to build, enforce and automate the business processes necessary to
maintain high-quality web sites.

   Ease of Use. Our SmartContext Editing feature provides non-technical users
with a simple and efficient interface for contributing content as they browse
through the web site. With SmartContext Editing, non-technical contributors are
only required to be familiar with a web browser. For web sites with many
content contributors, TeamSite offers an easy to use, sophisticated, technique
for tracking multiple content changes and merging them into a single file.

   Deployment and Content Syndication. OpenDeploy allows customers to deploy
content to numerous web sites through a single transaction to ensure consistent
site roll-outs. In addition, it can be used to deploy and run

                                       36
<PAGE>


application programs automatically as well as to replicate content from
relational databases. OpenDeploy can also be used in an encrypted mode for the
secure deployment of content over the Internet.

 Scalability, Performance and Availability

   Scalability and Performance. TeamSite uses a multi-threaded approach to
promote faster server performance through parallel software code execution. It
also uses C++ and object-oriented programming to promote scalability and
performance. In addition, OpenDeploy can distribute content to a single or to
multiple production web servers simultaneously. This content replication
functionality meets the requirements for the most demanding web sites that are
often located on geographically dispersed servers.

   Availability. Our design also promotes reliability and availability by
allowing customers to employ their normal data backup and recovery tools. In
addition, critical data is duplicated, providing the necessary redundancy for
data recovery to minimize the potential for data loss.

 Industry Standards

   Open to All Files, Tools and Applications. Unlike proprietary, closed
implementations, our products have been developed to accommodate industry
leading Internet technologies, such as XML and Java, and other evolving
industry standards. The TeamSite server presents its content through popular
file management systems such as Unix Network File System and Microsoft Windows
Network File System.

   eXtensible Markup Language. XML provides customers the ability to integrate
new applications and data with other XML-compliant technologies and legacy
applications. Together with companies such as Microsoft and IBM, we are a
sponsoring member of OASIS, an industry association promoting XML standards.
Our products use and support XML, and promote XML for data and content
exchange.

Customers

   Our products and services are marketed and sold to a diverse group of
customers operating in a broad range of industries. Our customers include both
established companies migrating their operations online and new companies
formed specifically to deliver products and services over the Internet. These
customers typically consider the web and their web operations to be critical
to their future success.

   As of August 31, 1999, over 85 companies had licensed our products. In
1998, Cisco Systems accounted for 13% of our total revenues. The following
table is a representative list of our customers. Each of these customers had
purchased more than $50,000 in licenses and services from us. In August 1999
we entered into an enterprise license agreement with General Electric.

Customer Case Studies

   The following case studies exemplify eBusiness initiatives that have
utilized our products:

   Educational Testing Service. Educational Testing Service, the world's
largest private educational measurement organization, annually administers
almost 11 million tests in 180 countries worldwide. Since 1996, ETS has been
using the Internet to provide a cost-effective, self-service source of updated
information for its international customer base. ETS has moved much of its
traditional business to the web in order to reduce operating costs and improve
customer service. Its multiple web sites provide information on admission

                                      38
<PAGE>

to colleges and universities, test registration and preparation, financial aid
planning and services, to hundreds of thousands of students, parents and
educators each year.

   Educational Testing Service uses TeamSite to support its online business
initiatives, such as online registration for exams, free online practice exams
and preparatory information, as well as direct sales of its products.

   Nortel Networks. Nortel Networks, with 1998 revenues of $17.6 billion and
75,000 employees worldwide, is a leader in voice and data networking equipment.
Nortel has been using TeamSite for over 18 months to manage and control
globally dispersed content contributors for six different web sites. Nortel's
customers include public and private enterprises and institutions, Internet
service providers, local, long-distance, cellular and PCS communications
companies, cable television carriers, and utilities. Nortel uses TeamSite to
deploy content to its corporate web site, e-commerce systems, and a dynamic
personalized customer portal. The content for these sites is developed and
managed by Nortel Networks marketing teams, service teams, and external
agencies but is centrally controlled and supported through TeamSite. The staff
required to manage this initiative is kept to a minimum by leveraging
TeamSite's ability to distribute web publishing responsibilities to many
contributors. Nortel also uses TeamSite to control and support the web
operations of its international divisions.

   Today, web contributors from four continents participate in the development
of six multilingual web sites for Nortel, which translates content into many
languages including Chinese, Japanese, French, Spanish and others.

   AltaVista. AltaVista is a leading media and commerce network that integrates
unique technology, products and services. AltaVista seeks to deliver best-of-
breed results by integrating content and functionality from both within the
AltaVista network and through external partners. AltaVista has chosen
Interwoven TeamSite as its global content management platform.

   Since its foundation four years ago, AltaVista has provided its loyal base
of web users a broad range of Internet services. As part of its infrastructure
requirement, AltaVista required a robust scalable platform to support its
dynamic environment. AltaVista chose TeamSite as its content management
platform. Demonstrating its ease of implementation, AltaVista installed and
implemented TeamSite in less than one week.

   TechRepublic. TechRepublic offers a free web service that provides career
insight, community interaction and customized information to information
technology executives and strategists, network administrators, support training
and other enterprise computing professionals. Its web site provides ready
access to critical information through personalized news, analysis and original
content written by expert contributors. TechRepublic selected TeamSite to
develop and manage its rapidly changing web site.

   Since TechRepublic offers articles and information which must be published
and frequently updated by contributors who work remotely. This content is
routed through a series of editors for revision and approval before the content
is finally deployed to the site. With near-constant updates, TechRepublic
required a content management solution with robust workflow functionality and
easy remote access. TeamSite provides TechRepublic with an ideal solution to
its workflow problem because it allows timely central approval and publishing
control of the content assigned to outside contributors. TeamSite also uses our
OpenDeploy to provide secure, rules-based web content replication across
multiple servers and distribution over the Internet.

Technology Vendors and Service Providers

 Technology Vendors

   To ensure that our products are well integrated with related web
technologies, we work with vendors of web authoring tools and web application
servers. Web authoring tools, such as Macromedia's Dreamweaver, Microsoft's
Office 2000 and Adobe's Photoshop, provide the content that we manage. Web
application servers, such as Allaire's ColdFusion, ATG's Dynamo, BroadVision's
One-to-One Commerce, IBM's Net.Commerce

                                       39
<PAGE>


and Microsoft's SiteServer, distribute the content managed by our software over
the Internet. We have developed specific product interfaces for some of these
companies, such as software and service modules for BroadVision and ATG, and
some companies refer customers to us or resell our products. BroadVision, for
example, resells our products.

 Service Providers

   We work with leading systems integrators, including Andersen Consulting,
Cambridge Technology Partners, Computer Sciences Corporation, EDS, Ernst &
Young and KPMG, and Internet professional services firms, including iXL, Ogilvy
Interactive and USWeb/CKS. Our prospective customers frequently retain the
services of these firms for the delivery and implementation of eBusiness
applications, and these firms may recommend a content management solution as
part of the eBusiness application they deliver. USWeb/CKS, for example, resells
our products. We intend to devote significant resources to develop these
relationships further.

Sales and Marketing

   To date, we have sold our products and services primarily through our direct
sales force in North America and Europe. As of June 30, 1999, we had 30
professionals in our direct sales force, of which 27 were located in the United
States and 3 were in Europe. We intend to increase the size of our direct sales
force and establish additional sales offices domestically and internationally.
In May 1999, we opened our first international sales office in the United
Kingdom to support the management of direct and indirect sales channels in
Europe.

   We are also aggressively developing our indirect sales channel by expanding
our relationships with leading Internet technology vendors, Internet
professional services firms and systems integrators that recommend and, when
appropriate, resell our products. For example, BroadVision and USWeb/CKS
currently resell our products.

   We believe that demand is increasing for content management solutions such
as those we sell. We may not be able to expand our sales and marketing staff,
either domestically or internationally, to take advantage of any increase in
demand for those solutions. Our failure to expand our sales and marketing
organization or other distribution channels could materially adversely affect
our business. See "Risk Factors--We must attract and retain qualified
personnel, which is particularly difficult for us because we compete with other
Internet-related software companies and are located in the San Francisco Bay
area where competition for personnel is extremely intense."

Research and Development

   We invest significantly in research and development to enhance our current
products, and develop new products. Our research and development expenses were
$884,000 in 1997, $1.8 million in 1998 and $1.7 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1999. We expect that we will increase our product development
expenditures substantially in the future. As of June 30, 1999, approximately 25
employees were engaged in research and development activities and we plan to
continue to hire additional engineers to further our research and development
activities. Our business could be harmed if we were not able to hire and retain
the required number of engineers. See "Risk Factors--We must attract and retain
qualified personnel, which is particularly difficult for us because we compete
with other Internet-related software companies and are located in the San
Francisco Bay area where competition for personnel is extremely intense."

   We may fail to complete our product development efforts within our
anticipated schedules, and even if completed, the products developed may not
have the features necessary to make them successful in the marketplace. Future
delays or problems in the development or marketing of product enhancements or
new products could harm our business. See "Risk Factors--Difficulties in
introducing new products and upgrades in a timely manner will make market
acceptance of our products less likely."

Competition

   The market for content management solutions is rapidly emerging and is
characterized by intense competition. We expect existing competition and
competition from new market entrants to increase dramatically. A growing number
of companies are vying to provide web content management solutions. In this
market, new products are frequently introduced and existing products are often
enhanced. In addition, new companies, or alliances among existing companies,
may be formed that may rapidly achieve a significant market position.

   Potential customers may have developed in-house solutions which might make
it more difficult for us to sell products to them. We compete with third-party
content management solution providers, primarily Vignette, and, to a lesser
extent, with workgroup solutions, and content publishing application providers.
We may face increased competition from these providers in the future. Other
potential competitors include client/server software vendors which are
developing or extending existing products which address our market. In
addition, although we currently partner with a number of companies that provide
complementary products such as web tools, enterprise document repositories and
web servers, they may introduce competitive products in the future. Other large
software companies, such as Microsoft and IBM, may also introduce competitive
products. Many of our existing and potential competitors have greater
technical, marketing and financial resources than we do.

   We believe that competitive factors in the web content management industry
include:

  .  the quality, scalability and reliability of software;

  .  functionality that enables a broad base of contributors to add and
     modify web content;

  .  interoperability with all leading web authoring tools and web
     application servers based on industry standards;

  .  ability to provide advanced workflow functionality;

  .  the ability to leverage existing information technology infrastructure;
     and

  .  adherence to emerging industry standards, including XML.

   We believe our products compete favorably on each of these factors.

Proprietary Rights and Licensing

   Our success depends upon our ability to maintain the proprietary aspects of
our technology and operate without infringing the proprietary rights of others.
We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, trade secret and copyright law,
and contractual restrictions, to protect the proprietary aspects of our
technology. We seek to protect our source code for our software, documentation
and other written materials under trade secret and copyright laws. We currently
do not have any issued United States or foreign patents, but we have applied
for one U.S. patent. It is possible that a patent will not issue from our
currently pending patent application. These legal protections afford only
limited protection for our technology. Our license agreements impose
restrictions on our customers' ability to utilize our software. We also seek to
protect our intellectual property by requiring employees and consultants with
access to our proprietary information to execute confidentiality agreements
with us and by restricting access to our source code. There can be no assurance
that all employees or consultants have signed or could sign these agreements.
Due to rapid technological change, we believe that factors such as the
technological and creative skills of our personnel, new product developments
and enhancements to existing products are equally as important as the various
legal protections of our technology to establishing and maintaining a
technology leadership position.

   Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties
may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information
that we regard as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is
difficult and while we are unable to determine the extent to which piracy of
our software exists, software piracy can be expected to be a persistent
problem. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce

                                       41
<PAGE>


our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, to determine
the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others or to defend against
claims of infringement or invalidity. However, the laws of many countries do
not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the
United States. Any resulting litigation could result in substantial costs and
diversion of resources and could seriously harm our business, operating results
and financial condition. There can be no assurance that our means of protecting
our proprietary rights will be adequate or that our competitors will not
independently develop similar technology. Any failure by us to meaningfully
protect our property could seriously harm our business, operating results and
financial condition.

   To date, we have not been notified that our products infringe the
proprietary rights of third parties, but there can be no assurance that third
parties will not claim infringement by us with respect to our current or future
products. We expect that developers of web-based commerce software products
will increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of products
and competitors in our industry segment grows and as the functionality of
products in different segments of the software industry increasingly overlaps.
Any claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming to defend, result in
costly litigation, divert management's attention and resources, cause product
shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements.
These royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on
terms acceptable to us or at all. A successful infringement claim against us
and our inability to license the infringed technology or develop or license
technology with comparable functionality could seriously harm our business,
financial condition and operating results. See "Risk Factors--We might not be
able to protect and enforce our intellectual property rights, loss of which
could harm our business."

Employees

   As of August 31, 1999, we had a total of 159 employees, including 69 in
sales and marketing, 31 in research and development, 41 in professional
services and 18 in administration and finance. Of these employees, 156 were
located in the United States and 3 were located in the United Kingdom. None of
our employees is represented by a collective bargaining agreement, nor have we
experienced any work stoppage. We consider our relations with our employees to
be good.

   Our future operating results depend in significant part on the continued
service of our key technical, sales and senior management personnel. Other than
as described in "Management--Employment and Severance Agreements," none of
these individuals is bound by an employment agreement. Our future success also
depends on our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified
technical, sales and senior management personnel. Competition for these
personnel is intense, and we may not be able to retain our key technical, sales
and senior management personnel or attract these personnel in the future. We
have experienced difficulty in recruiting qualified technical, sales and senior
management personnel, and we expect to experience these difficulties in the
future. If we are unable to hire and retain qualified personnel in the future,
this inability could seriously harm our business.

Facilities

   Our principal office occupies approximately 27,500 square feet in Sunnyvale,
California, under a lease that expires in May 2003. In addition, we also lease
sales and service offices in the metropolitan areas of Atlanta, Boston,
Chicago, London, Los Angeles, Seattle and Washington, D.C. In July, we moved
our services organization to expanded facilities located in approximately
12,600 square feet in Sunnyvale, California. Our lease for this facility
expires in December 2000. We believe that our existing facilities will not be
adequate for our current needs. We are currently in the process of locating
additional office space for expansion or relocation of our principal offices.
There can be no assurance that suitable additional or alternative space will be
available in the future on commercially reasonable terms.

Legal Proceedings

   We are not a party to any material legal proceedings. We could become
involved in litigation from time to time relating to claims arising out of our
ordinary course of business.

Board Composition

   We currently have six directors. Our amended and restated certificate of
incorporation, which will become effective upon the closing of this offering,
states that our board of directors will be divided into three classes: Class I,
the term for which will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held
in 2000, Class II, the term for which will expire at the annual meeting of
stockholders to be held in 2001, and Class III, the term for which will expire
at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2002. At each annual
meeting of stockholders after the initial classification, the successors to
directors whose terms have expired will be elected to serve from the time of
election and qualification until the third annual meeting following election.
The Class I directors are Messrs. Brauns and Saul; the Class II directors are
Mr. Peng and Ms. Gould; and the Class III directors will be Messrs. Thompson
and Codd.

   In addition, our bylaws, as they will be effective upon the closing of this
offering, provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed only
by resolution of the board of directors. Any additional directorships resulting
from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three
classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of
the total number of directors.

   This classification of the board of directors may have the effect of
delaying or preventing a change in control. See "Description of Capital Stock--
Anti-Takeover Provisions."

Board Committees

   Our board of directors has a compensation committee and an audit committee.

   Compensation Committee. The current members of our compensation committee
are Mr. Saul and Ms. Gould. The compensation committee reviews and makes
recommendations to our board concerning salaries and incentive compensation for
our officers and employees. The compensation committee also administers our
stock plans.

   Audit Committee. The current members of our audit committee are Messrs. Codd
and Thompson. Our audit committee reviews and monitors our financial statements
and accounting practices, makes recommendations to our board regarding the
selection of independent auditors and reviews the results and scope of the
audit and other services provided by our independent auditors.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

   Before April 1, 1998, our board of directors did not have a compensation
committee and all compensation decisions were made by the full board of
directors. In April 1998, the Company formed a compensation committee
consisting of Mr. Brauns, Ms. Gould and Eileen Richardson, a former director.
No compensation decisions were made by this committee in 1998; rather, all
compensation decisions were made by the full board of directors. No
interlocking relationship exists between our board of directors or compensation
committee and the board of directors or compensation committee of any other
company, nor has an interlocking relationship existed in the past.

Director Compensation

   Our directors receive no cash compensation for their services as directors
but are reimbursed for their reasonable expenses in attending board and board
committee meetings.

   Each eligible director who is not our employee and who is a member of the
board on the completion of this offering will be granted an option to purchase
10,000 shares of common stock under our 1999 Equity Incentive Plan, unless that
director has previously received an option grant before the effective date of
this offering. Each eligible director who is not our employee and who first
becomes a member of our board on or after the completion of this offering will
be granted an option to purchase 20,000 shares of common stock under our 1999
Equity Incentive Plan. Mr. Codd and Mr. Thompson were each granted an option to
purchase 20,000 shares of Common Stock under our 1998 Stock Option Plan in July
1999. Ms. Gould and Mr. Saul will

                                       45
<PAGE>


each be granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock under the
1999 Equity Incentive Plan on the effective date of this offering. Immediately
following each annual meeting of our stockholders, each eligible director will
automatically be granted an additional option to purchase 10,000 shares under
the plan if the director has served continuously as a member of the board for
at least one year. The options will have 10-year terms and will terminate three
months following the date the director ceases to be one of our directors or
consultants or 12 months following that date if the termination is due to death
or disability. All options granted under the plan will be fully vested and
immediately exercisable as of the date of grant.

Executive Compensation

   The following table presents compensation information for 1998 paid to or
accrued by each person serving as our chief executive officer in 1998 and each
of our four other most highly compensated executive officers whose salary and
bonus for 1998 was more than $100,000. The restricted stock value is calculated
based upon a $0.39 per share purchase price and assuming that the estimated
fair market value on the date of grant is equal to an assumed initial public
offering price of $11.00 per share.

   Mr. Farber's employment with us terminated as of August 1, 1998. Mr. Chang's
employment with us terminated as of March 31, 1999. The amounts listed under
the column captioned "Other Annual Compensation" represent payments in lieu of
health insurance premiums paid by us.

                             Option Grants in 1998

   The following table presents the grants of stock options under our 1996
Stock Option Plan and 1998 Stock Option Plan during 1998 to each person serving
as our chief executive officer and each of the persons listed in the Summary
Compensation Table.

   All options granted under the 1996 plan and 1998 plan are immediately
exercisable and are either incentive stock options or nonqualified stock
options. We have a right to repurchase the shares issued upon exercise of these
options at the original purchase price if they are unvested at the time the
grantee terminates employment with us. This repurchase right generally lapses
as to 25% of the shares on the first anniversary of the date of grant and the
remainder expire ratably over a 36-month period thereafter. We have also
granted nonqualified stock options that do not contain a repurchase right or
contain repurchase terms that are negotiated between the optionee and us.
Options expire 10 years from the first date of employment. Options were granted
at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock, as
determined by our board, on the date of grant. In 1998, we granted to our
employees and consultants options to purchase a total of 824,425 shares of our
common stock.

The 5% and 10% assumed annual rates of stock price appreciation are required by
the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not represent our
estimate or projection of future common stock prices. The potential realizable
values at 0%, 5% and 10% appreciation are calculated by assuming that the
estimated fair market value on the date of grant, based upon an assumed initial
public offering price of $11.00 per share, appreciates at the indicated rate
for the entire term of the options and that the option is exercised at the
exercise price and sold on the last day of its term at the appreciated price.

   Aggregate Option Exercises in 1998 and Option Values at December 31, 1998

   The following table presents the number of shares acquired and the value
realized upon exercise of stock options during 1998 and the number of shares of
common stock subject to "exercisable" and "unexercisable" stock options held as
of December 31, 1998 by each of the persons listed in the Summary Compensation
Table. Also presented are values of "in-the-money" options, which represent the
positive difference between the exercise price of each outstanding stock option
and an assumed initial public offering price of $11.00 per share. Each of these
options was exercisable immediately upon grant, subject to our right to
repurchase the option shares at the exercise price upon termination of the
optionee's employment. The repurchase right generally expires as to 25% of the
shares on the first anniversary of the date of grant and the remainder expires
ratably over a 36-month period thereafter. The numbers in the columns entitled
"Value Realized" and "Value of Unexercised In-the-Money Options at December 31,
1998" are based on an assumed initial public offering price of $11.00 per share
and net of the exercise price payable for these shares.

(1) Options granted under our stock option plans are generally exercisable
    immediately but the shares acquired upon exercise are subject to lapsing
    rights of repurchase at the exercise price. The heading "exercisable"
    refers to shares as to which our right of repurchase has lapsed. The
    heading "unexercisable" refers to shares that we still have the right to
    repurchase upon termination of the optionee's employment.

Employee Benefit Plans

   1996 Stock Option Plan. As of August 31, 1999, options to purchase 22,332
shares of common stock were outstanding under the 1996 Stock Option Plan and
options to purchase 610,994 shares had been exercised, but remain subject to
our repurchase right. No additional options may be granted under this plan.
Options granted under the stock option plan are subject to terms substantially
similar to those described below with respect to options granted under the 1999
Equity Incentive Plan.

   1998 Stock Option Plan. As of August 31, 1999, options to purchase 1,017,555
shares of common stock were outstanding under the 1998 Stock Option Plan,
options to purchase 451,273 shares remained available for issuance and options
to purchase 1,189,508 shares had been exercised, but remain subject to our
repurchase right. No additional options may be granted under this plan. Options
granted under the stock option plan are subject to terms substantially similar
to those described below with respect to options granted under the 1999 Equity
Incentive Plan.

   1999 Equity Incentive Plan. On July 22, 1999, the board adopted the 1999
Equity Incentive Plan and reserved 2,900,000 shares of common stock to be
issued under this plan. In addition, shares under the 1996 Stock Option Plan
and the 1998 Stock Option Plan not issued or subject to outstanding grants on
the date of this prospectus and any shares issued under these plans that are
forfeited or repurchased by us or that are issuable upon exercise of options
that expire or become unexercisable for any reason without having been
exercised in full will be available for grant and issuance under the equity
incentive plan. Shares will again be available for grant and issuance under the
equity incentive plan that:

  .  are subject to issuance upon exercise of an option granted under the
     equity incentive plan that cease to be subject to the option for any
     reason other than exercise of the option;

                                       48
<PAGE>

  .  have been issued upon the exercise of an option granted under the equity
     incentive plan that are subsequently forfeited or repurchased by us at
     the original purchase price;

  .  are subject to an award granted pursuant to a restricted stock purchase
     agreement under the equity incentive plan that are subsequently
     forfeited or repurchased by us at the original issue price; or

  .  are subject to stock bonuses granted under the equity incentive plan
     that terminates without shares being issued.

   This plan will become effective on the consummation of this offering and
will terminate on July 21, 2009, unless it is terminated earlier by our board.
The plan will authorize the award of options, restricted stock awards and stock
bonuses. No person will be eligible to receive more than 1,000,000 shares in
any calendar year under the plan other than a new employee who will be eligible
to receive no more than 1,500,000 shares in the calendar year in which the
employee commences employment.

   The plan will be administered by our compensation committee, all of the
members of which are "non-employee directors" under applicable federal
securities laws and "outside directors" as defined under applicable federal tax
laws. The compensation committee will have the authority to construe and
interpret the plan, grant awards and make all other determinations necessary or
advisable for the administration of the plan. Also, our non-employee directors
are entitled to receive automatic annual grants of fully vested options to
purchase shares of our common stock, as described under "Management--Director
Compensation."

   The plan will provide for the grant of both incentive stock options that
qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code and nonqualified stock
options. Incentive stock options may be granted only to our employees or
employees of our parent or subsidiary, if any. All other awards other than
incentive stock options may be granted to employees, officers, directors,
consultants, independent contractors and advisors of ours or of our parent or
subsidiary, if any, provided the consultants, independent contractors and
advisors render bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of
securities in a capital-raising transaction. The exercise price of incentive
stock options must be at least equal to the fair market value of our common
stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of incentive stock options
granted to 10% stockholders must be at least equal to 110% of that value. The
exercise price of nonqualified stock options must be at least equal to 85% of
the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant.

   Options may be exercisable only as they vest or may be immediately
exercisable with the shares issued subject to our right of repurchase that
lapses as the shares vest. In general, options will vest over a four-year
period. The maximum term of options granted under the plan is 10 years.

   Awards granted under the plan may not be transferred in any manner other
than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. They may be exercised
during the lifetime of the optionee only by the optionee. The compensation
committee could determine otherwise and provide for these provisions in the
award agreement, but only with respect to awards that are not incentive stock
options. Options granted under the plan generally may be exercised for a period
of time after the termination of the optionee's service to us or to our parent
or subsidiary, if any. Options will generally terminate immediately upon
termination of employment for cause.

   The purchase price for restricted stock will be determined by our
compensation committee. Stock bonuses may be issued for past services or may be
awarded upon the completion of certain services or performance goals.

   If we are dissolved or liquidated or have a "change in control" transaction,
outstanding awards may be assumed or substituted by the successor corporation,
if any. In the discretion of the compensation committee the vesting of these
awards may accelerate upon one of these transactions.

   1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The board has adopted the 1999 Employee
Stock Purchase Plan and has reserved 300,000 shares for issuance under this
plan. This plan will become effective one business day

                                       49
<PAGE>

after consummation of this offering. On each January 1, the aggregate number of
shares reserved for issuance under this plan will increase automatically by a
number of shares equal to 1% of our outstanding shares on December 31 of the
preceding year. The aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the
plan may not exceed 3,000,000 shares. The plan will be administered by our
compensation committee, which will have the authority to construe and interpret
the plan.

   Employees generally will be eligible to participate in the plan if they are
employed ten days before the beginning of an offering period and they are
customarily employed by us, or our parent or any subsidiaries that we
designate, for more than 20 hours per week and more than five months in a
calendar year and are not, and would not become as a result of being granted an
option under the plan, 5% stockholders of us or our designated parent or
subsidiaries.

   Under the plan, eligible employees will be permitted to acquire shares of
our common stock through payroll deductions. Eligible employees may select a
rate of payroll deduction between 2% and 10% of their compensation and are
subject to maximum purchase limitations. Participation in the plan will end
automatically upon termination of employment for any reason.

   Each offering period under the plan will be for two years and consist of
four six-month purchase periods. The first offering period is expected to begin
on the first business day on which price quotations for our common stock are
available on the Nasdaq National Market. Offering periods and purchase periods
will begin on February 1 and August 1 of each year. However, because the first
day on which price quotations for our common stock will be available on the
Nasdaq National Market may not be February 1 or August 1, the length of the
first offering period may be more or less than two years, and the length of the
first purchase period may be more or less than six months.

   The plan will provide that, in the event of our proposed dissolution or
liquidation, each offering period that commenced prior to the closing of the
proposed event shall continue for the duration of the offering period, provided
that the compensation committee may fix a different date for termination of the
plan. The purchase price for our common stock purchased under the plan is 85%
of the lesser of the fair market value of our common stock on the first day of
the applicable offering period or the last day of the applicable purchase
period. The compensation committee will have the power to change the duration
of offering periods without stockholder approval, if the change is announced at
least 15 days prior to the beginning of the affected offering period.

   The plan is intended to qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under
Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. Rights granted under the plan will
not be transferable by a participant other than by will or the laws of descent
and distribution.

   The plan will terminate on July 21, 2009, unless it is terminated earlier
under the terms of the plan. The board will have the authority to amend,
terminate or extend the term of the plan, except that no action may adversely
affect any outstanding shares previously purchased under the plan. Except for
the automatic annual increase of shares described above, stockholder approval
is required to increase the number of shares that may be issued or to change
the terms of eligibility under the plan. The board may make amendments to the
plan as it determines to be advisable if the financial accounting treatment for
the plan is different from the financial accounting treatment in effect on the
date the plan was adopted by the board.

   401(k) Plan. We sponsor a defined contribution plan intended to qualify
under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code, or a 401(k) plan. All employees
are generally eligible to participate and may enter the plan as of the first
day of each calendar month. Participants may make pre-tax contributions to the
plan of up to 15% of their eligible earnings, subject to a statutorily
prescribed annual limit. Each participant is fully vested in his or her
contributions and the investment earnings. Contributions to the plan by the
participants or by us, and the income earned on these contributions, are
generally not taxable to the participants until withdrawn. Contributions by us,
if any, are generally deductible by us when made. Participant and company
contributions

                                       50

are held in trust as required by law. Individual participants may direct the
trustee to invest their accounts in authorized investment alternatives.

   Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitation of
Liability

   Our certificate of incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the
personal liability of our directors for monetary damages resulting from breach
of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability:

  .  for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us or our
     stockholders;

  .  for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional
     misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

  .  under section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law regarding
     unlawful dividends and stock purchases; or

  .  for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
     benefit.

   These provisions are permitted under Delaware law.

   Our bylaws provide that:

  .  we must indemnify our directors and executive officers to the fullest
     extent permitted by Delaware law, subject to very limited exceptions;

  .  we may indemnify our other employees and agents to the same extent that
     we indemnify our directors and executive officers, unless otherwise
     required by law, our certificate of incorporation, bylaws or agreements;
     and

  .  we must advance expenses, as incurred, to our directors and executive
     officers in connection with a legal proceeding to the fullest extent
     permitted by Delaware law, subject to very limited exceptions.

   Prior to the completion of this offering, we intend to enter into
indemnification agreements with each of our current directors and executive
officers to give them additional contractual assurances regarding the scope of
the indemnification provided in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and
to provide additional procedural protections. Presently, there is no pending
litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, executive officers or
employees for which indemnification is sought, nor are we aware of any
threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification.

   We have liability insurance for our directors and officers.

   Martin W. Brauns. In March 1998, we loaned $240,000 to Mr. Brauns, our
President and Chief Executive Officer, secured by a promissory note and stock

common stock. The note accrued interest at a rate of 6% per year and has been

is payable annually. In the event of an initial public offering of our common
stock the principal sum of each note will become due and payable in monthly
installments over the remaining term of our right to repurchase the shares. If
Mr. Engelmann breaches his obligations under the notes we may enforce our right
to payment of 25% of the principal and any accrued interest out of any of Mr.
Engelmann's assets, but may enforce our right to payment of the balance due
under the notes only out of the stock subject to the stock pledge agreement. As

event of an initial public offering of our common stock the principal sum of
each note will become due and payable in monthly installments over the
remaining term of our right to repurchase the shares. If Mr. Ruck breaches his
obligations under the notes we may enforce our right to payment of 25% of the
principal and any accrued interest out of any of Mr. Ruck's assets, but may
enforce our right to payment of the balance due under the notes only out of the
stock subject to the stock pledge agreement. As of August 31, 1999, $98,284

                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

   Immediately following the closing of this offering, our authorized capital
stock will consist of 75,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per
share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share.

   Immediately before the closing of this offering, we will reincorporate in
the state of Delaware. Following the closing of this offering, we intend to
amend and restate our certificate of incorporation. Our certificate of
incorporation, bylaws and third amended and restated investors' rights
agreement, described below, are included as exhibits to the registration
statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

Common Stock

   As of August 31, 1999, there were 19,009,054 shares of common stock
outstanding held by 173 shareholders of record, including 12,542,610 shares
that will be issued upon conversion of all outstanding preferred stock and the
exercise and subsequent conversion to common stock of warrants to purchase
Series B Preferred Stock upon the closing of this offering.

   Dividend Rights. Subject to preferences that may apply to shares of
preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of outstanding shares of
common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available
at the times and in the amounts as our board may from time to time determine.

   Voting Rights. Each common stockholder is entitled to one vote for each
share of common stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders.
Cumulative voting for the election of directors is not provided for in our
certificate of incorporation, which means that the holders of a majority of the
shares voted can elect all of the directors then standing for election.

   No preemptive or similar rights. The common stock is not entitled to
preemptive rights and is not subject to conversion or redemption.

   Right to receive liquidation distributions. Upon a liquidation, dissolution
or winding-up of Interwoven, the assets legally available for distribution to
stockholders are distributable ratably among the holders of the common stock
and any participating preferred stock outstanding at that time after payment of
liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding preferred stock and payment
of other claims of creditors. Each outstanding share of common stock is, and
all shares of common stock to be outstanding upon completion of this offering
will be, fully paid and nonassessable.

Preferred Stock

   Upon the closing of this offering, each outstanding share of preferred stock
will be converted into shares of common stock. See Note 6 of Notes to Financial
Statements for a description of this preferred stock.

   Following this offering, we will be authorized, subject to the limits
imposed by Delaware law, to issue preferred stock in one or more series, to
establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each series,
to fix the rights, preferences and privileges of the shares of each wholly
unissued series and any of its qualifications, limitations or restrictions. The
board can also increase or decrease the number of shares of any series, but not
below the number of shares of a given series then outstanding, without any
further vote or action by the stockholders.

   The board may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or
conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights
of the holders of the common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while
providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other
corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying,
deferring or preventing a change in control and may adversely affect the market
price of our common stock and the voting and other rights of the holders of
common stock. We have no current plan to issue any shares of preferred stock.

</TABLE>

   In July 1999, we issued warrants to purchase a total of 11,770 shares of
Series E Preferred Stock in connection with our acquisition of Lexington
Software Associates, Inc. The warrants are exercisable at a purchase price of
$8.49 per share after January 1, 2000 and until July 1, 2006. All holders of
warrants to purchase Series E Preferred Stock are afforded registration rights
pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Investors Rights Agreement.

Registration Rights

   The holders of approximately 12,420,390 shares of common stock have the
right to require us to register their shares with the Securities and Exchange
Commission so that those shares may be publicly resold or to include their
shares in any registration statement we file.

 Right to demand registration

   At any time six months after this offering, these stockholders can request
that we file a registration statement so they can publicly sell their shares.
The underwriters of any underwritten offering will have the right to limit the
number of shares to be included in a registration statement.

   Who may make a demand. At any time six months after the closing of this
offering, any holder of shares of common stock issued upon conversion of Series
B Preferred Stock immediately prior to this offering, any number of holders who
together hold an aggregate of at least 954,633 shares of common stock issued
upon conversion of Series C Preferred Stock immediately prior to this offering,
any number of holders who together hold an aggregate of at least 498,829 shares
of common stock issued upon conversion of Series D Preferred Stock immediately
prior to this offering, any number of holders who together hold an aggregate of
at least 452,628 shares of common stock issued upon conversion of Series E
Preferred Stock immediately prior to this offering, or the holders of at least
40% of the shares having registration rights, including some holders of Series
A Preferred Stock, have the right to demand that we file a registration
statement on a form other than Form S-3, so long as the amount of securities to
be sold in that registration exceeds $5,000,000. If we are eligible to file a
registration statement on Form S-3, the same holders of the registration rights
described above will have the right to demand that we file a registration
statement on Form S-3, so long as the amount of securities to be sold in that
registration exceeds $1,000,000.

   Number of times holders can make demands. We will only be required to file
one registration statement on a form other than Form S-3 for each of two
registrations. If we are eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3,
we are not required to file more than one registration statement during any 12
month period.

   Postponement. We may postpone the filing of a registration statement for up
to 90 days once in a 12 month period if we determine that the filing would be
seriously detrimental to us or our stockholders.

 Piggyback registration rights

   If we register any securities for public sale, the same stockholders with
registration rights described above will have the right to include their shares
in the registration statement. The underwriters of any underwritten offering
will have the right to limit the number of shares to be included in a
registration statement.

                                       59
<PAGE>

 Expenses of registration

   We will pay all of the expenses relating to any demand or piggyback
registration. However, we will not pay for any expenses of any demand
registration if the request is subsequently withdrawn by the holders of a
majority of the shares having registration rights, subject to very limited
exceptions.

 Expiration of registration rights

   The registration rights described above will expire five years after this
offering is completed. The registration rights will terminate earlier with
respect to a particular stockholder if that holder owns less than 1% of our
outstanding securities or can resell all of its securities in a three month
period under Rule 144 of the Securities Act and we are subject to the reporting
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

   The provisions of Delaware law, our certificate of incorporation and our
bylaws described below may have the effect of delaying, deferring or
discouraging another person from acquiring control of our company.

 Delaware Law

   We will be subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law regulating corporate takeovers. This section prevents certain
Delaware corporations from engaging, under limited circumstances, in a
"business combination," which includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of the
corporation's assets, with any "interested stockholder," or a stockholder who
owns 15% or more of the corporation's outstanding voting stock, as well as
affiliates and associates of stockholders, for three years following the date
that the stockholder became an "interested stockholder" unless:

  .  the transaction is approved by the board prior to the date the
     "interested stockholder" attained that status;

  .  upon the closing of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder's
     becoming an "interested stockholder," the "interested stockholder" owned
     at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the
     time the transaction commenced; or

  .  on or subsequent to the date the "business combination" is approved by
     the board and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders
     by at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned
     by the "interested stockholder."

   A Delaware corporation may "opt out" of this provision with an express
provision in its original certificate of incorporation or an express provision
in its certificate of incorporation or bylaws resulting from a stockholders'
amendment approved by at least a majority of the outstanding voting shares.
However, we have not "opted out" of this provision. Section 203 could prohibit
or delay mergers or other takeover or change-in-control attempts and,
accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us.

 Charter and Bylaw Provisions

   Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, to be filed upon the
closing of this offering, states that our board of directors is divided into
three classes. The directors in each class will serve for a three-year term,
with our stockholders electing one class each year. For more information on the
classification of our board, please see "Management--Board Composition." This
system of electing and removing directors may tend to discourage a third party
from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us,
because it generally makes it more difficult for stockholders to replace a
majority of the directors.

   Our bylaws provide that any action required or permitted to be taken by our
stockholders at an annual meeting or a special meeting of the stockholders may
only be taken if it is properly brought before the meeting.

                                       60
<PAGE>

Our stockholders may not take any action by written consent instead of by a
meeting. Our certificate of incorporation provides that our board of directors
may issue preferred stock with voting or other rights without stockholder
action. Our bylaws and certificate of incorporation provide that special
meetings of the stockholders may only be called by our board, the chairman of
our board, our chief executive officer or our president.

   Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify officers and directors against
losses that they may incur in investigations and legal proceedings resulting
from their services to us, which may include services in connection with
takeover defense measures. These provisions may have the effect of preventing
changes in our management.

Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitation of Liability

   Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of directors to the
fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. In addition, our certificate of
incorporation and bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and
officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. We intend to enter
into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and executive
officers that provide them with indemnification protection in the event the
certificate of incorporation is subsequently amended.

   Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that we will indemnify
our directors and executive officers against losses that they may incur in
investigations and legal proceedings resulting from their services to us, which
may include services in connection with takeover defense measures. These
provisions may have the effect of preventing changes in the management.

                        SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

   Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, including shares issued
upon exercise of outstanding warrants or options, in the public market after
this offering could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time
and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity
securities. Furthermore, as described below, no shares currently outstanding
will be available for sale immediately after this offering due to limited
contractual restrictions on resale. Sales of substantial amounts of our common
stock in the public market after these restrictions lapse could adversely
affect the prevailing market price and our ability to raise equity capital in
the future.

   Upon completion of this offering, based on shares outstanding at June 30,
1999, we will have outstanding 21,642,241 shares of common stock, assuming no
exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option and no exercise of
outstanding options. Of these shares, the 3,000,000 shares sold in this
offering will be freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act
unless purchased by our "affiliates." The remaining shares will become eligible
for public sale as follows:

 Lock-Up Agreements

   All of our officers and directors and substantially all of our stockholders
have signed lock-up agreements under which they agreed not to sell, dispose of,
loan, pledge or grant any rights with respect to any shares of common stock or
any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of
common stock without the prior written consent of Credit Suisse First Boston
for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus.

   Credit Suisse First Boston may choose to release some of these shares from
these restrictions prior to the expiration of this 180-day period, though it
has no current intention to do so.

 Rule 144

   In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, beginning 90 days after
the date of this prospectus, a person who has beneficially owned shares of our
common stock for at least one year would be entitled to sell within any three-
month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

  .  1% of the number of shares of common stock then outstanding, which will
     equal approximately 216,422 shares immediately after this offering; or

  .  the average weekly trading volume of the common stock on the Nasdaq
     National Market during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a
     notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

   Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and
notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about
us.

                                       62
<PAGE>

 Rule 144(k)

   Under Rule 144(k), a person who has not been one of our affiliates at any
time during the 90 days preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the
shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell those
shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume
limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144. Therefore, unless otherwise
restricted, these shares may be sold immediately upon the completion of this
offering.

 Rule 701

   Any of our employees, officers, directors or consultants who purchased his
or her shares under a written compensatory plan or contract may be entitled to
sell his or her shares in reliance on Rule 701. Rule 701 permits affiliates to
sell their Rule 701 shares under Rule 144 without complying with the holding
period requirements of Rule 144. Rule 701 further provides that non-affiliates
may sell these shares in reliance on Rule 144 without having to comply with the
holding period, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of
Rule 144. All holders of Rule 701 shares are required to wait until 90 days
after the date of this prospectus before selling those shares. However, all
shares issued under Rule 701 are subject to lock-up agreements and will only
become eligible for sale when the 180-day lock-up agreements expire.

 Registration Rights

   Upon completion of this offering, the holders of 12,420,390 shares of common
stock, or their transferees, will be entitled to rights with respect to the
registration of those shares under the Securities Act. For a discussion of
these rights please see "Description of Capital Stock--Registration Rights."
After these shares are registered, they will be freely tradable without
restriction under the Securities Act.

 Stock Options

   Immediately after this offering, we intend to file a registration statement
under the Securities Act covering 3,200,000 shares of common stock reserved for
issuance under our stock option and employee stock purchase plans. As of August
31, 1999, options to purchase 1,039,887 shares of common stock were issued and
outstanding.

   Upon the expiration of the lock-up agreements described above, no shares of
common stock will be subject to vested options, based on options outstanding as
of August 31, 1999. This registration statement is expected to be filed and
become effective as soon as practicable after the effective date of this
offering. Accordingly, shares registered under this registration statement
will, subject to vesting provisions and Rule 144 volume limitations applicable
to our affiliates, be available for sale in the open market immediately after
the 180-day lock up agreements expire.

 Warrants

   As of August 31, 1999, we had outstanding warrants to purchase 111,167
shares of common stock. When these warrants are exercised and the exercise
price is paid in cash the shares must be held for one year before they can be
sold under Rule 144. Warrants to purchase up to 111,167 shares of common stock
contain "net exercise provisions." These provisions allow a holder to exercise
the warrant for a lesser number of shares of common stock in lieu of paying
cash. The number of shares which would be issued in this case would be based
upon the market price of the common stock at the time of the net exercise. If
the warrant had been held for at least one year, the shares of common stock
could be publicly sold under Rule 144. After the lock-up agreements described
above expire, warrants to purchase 45,648 shares of our common stock, which
also contain net exercise provisions, will have been outstanding for at least
one year.

   Under the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the underwriting
agreement dated       , 1999, we have agreed to sell to the underwriters named
below, for whom Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, BancBoston Robertson

of shares of common stock:

</TABLE>

   The underwriting agreement provides that the underwriters are obligated to
purchase all the shares of common stock in the offering, if any are purchased,
other than those shares covered by the over-allotment option described below.
The underwriting agreement also provides that if an underwriter defaults the
purchase commitments of non-defaulting underwriters may be increased or the
offering of common stock may be terminated.

   We have granted to the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase on a pro
rata basis up to 450,000 additional shares from us at the initial public
offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The option may
be exercised only to cover any over-allotments of common stock.

   The underwriters propose to offer the shares of common stock initially at
the public offering price on the cover page of this prospectus and to selling
group members at that price less a concession of $  per share. The underwriters
and selling group members may allow a discount of $  per share on sales to
other broker/dealers. After the initial public offering, the public offering
price and concession and discount to broker/dealers may be changed by the
representatives.

   The following table summarizes the compensation and estimated expenses we
will pay.

   The underwriters have informed us that they do not expect discretionary
sales to exceed 5% of the shares of common stock being offered.

   We, our officers and directors and our stockholders have agreed that we will
not offer, sell, contract to sell, announce our intention to sell, pledge or
otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act relating
to any additional shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of our common stock without the
prior written consent of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation for a period of
180 days after the date of this prospectus, except in the case of issuances
pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options outstanding on the date of
this prospectus.

   The underwriters have reserved for sale, at the initial public offering
price, up to 200,000 shares of common stock for employees, directors and other
persons associated with us who have expressed an interest in purchasing common
stock in the offering. The number of shares available for sale to the general
public in the offering will be reduced to the extent such persons purchase such
reserved shares. Any reserved shares not so purchased will be offered by the
underwriters to the general public on the same terms as the others shares.

   We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against liabilities under the
Securities Act, or contribute to payments which the underwriters may be
required to make in that respect.

   We have applied to list the shares of common stock on The Nasdaq Stock
Market's National Market under the symbol "IWOV."

   In June 1999, we issued an aggregate of 3,394,719 shares of our Series E
Preferred Stock at a per share price of $5.66 in a private placement. These
shares of Series E Preferred Stock are convertible into an aggregate of
2,263,136 shares of common stock at $8.49 per share. Credit Suisse First Boston
Corporation acted as the placement agent for this private placement, and it
received a customary fee for its services. In addition, Merchant Capital, Inc.,
an affiliate of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, purchased 229,682
shares of Series E Preferred Stock. These shares of Series E Preferred Stock
are convertible into 153,121 shares of common stock.

   Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the common
stock. The initial public offering price will be determined by negotiation
between us and the underwriters. The principal factors to be considered in
determining the public offering price include:

  . the information set forth in this prospectus and otherwise available to
    the underwriters;

  . the history and the prospects for the industry in which we will compete;

  . the ability of our management;

  . the prospects for our future earnings;

  . the present state of our development and our current financial condition;

  . the general condition of the securities markets at the time of this
    offering; and

  . the recent market prices of, and the demand for, publicly traded common
    stock of generally comparable companies.

   The representatives may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions,
syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation
M under the Exchange Act.

  . Over-allotment involves syndicate sales in excess of the offering size,
    which creates a syndicate short position.

  . Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security
    so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.

  . Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the common stock in
    the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to
    cover syndicate short positions.

  . Penalty bids permit the representatives to reclaim a selling concession
    from a syndicate member when the common stock originally sold by such
    syndicate member is purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to
    cover syndicate short positions.

These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty
bids may cause the price of the common stock to be higher than it would
otherwise be in the absence of these transactions. These transactions may be
effected on The Nasdaq National Market or otherwise and, if commenced, may be
discontinued at any time.

                          NOTICE TO CANADIAN RESIDENTS

Resale Restrictions

   The distribution of the common stock in Canada is being made only on a
private placement basis exempt from the requirement that we prepare and file a
prospectus with the securities regulatory authorities in each province where
trades of common stock are effected. Accordingly, any resale of the common
stock in Canada must be made in accordance with applicable securities laws
which will vary depending on the relevant jurisdiction, and which may require
resales to be made in accordance with available statutory exemptions or
pursuant to a discretionary exemption granted by the applicable Canadian
securities regulatory authority. Purchasers are advised to seek legal advice
prior to any resale of the common stock.

Representations of Purchasers

   Each purchaser of common stock in Canada who receives a purchase
confirmation will be deemed to represent to us and the dealer from whom the
purchase confirmation is received that (i) the purchaser is entitled under
applicable provincial securities laws to purchase the common stock without the
benefit of a prospectus qualified under the securities laws, (ii) where
required by law, that the purchaser is purchasing as principal and not as
agent, and (iii) the purchaser has reviewed the text above under "Resale
Restrictions."

Rights of Action (Ontario Purchasers)

   The securities being offered are those of a foreign issuer and Ontario
purchasers will not receive the contractual right of action prescribed by
Ontario securities law. As a result, Ontario purchasers must rely on other
remedies that may be available, including common law rights of action for
damages or recission or rights of action under the civil liability provisions
of the U.S. federal securities laws.

Enforcement of Legal Rights

   All of the issuer's directors and officers as well as the experts named
herein may be located outside of Canada and, as a result, it may not be
possible for Canadian purchasers to effect service of process within Canada
upon the issuer or these persons. All or a substantial portion of the assets of
the issuer and these persons may be located outside of Canada and, as a result,
it may not be possible to satisfy a judgment against the issuer or these
persons in Canada or to enforce a judgment obtained in Canadian courts against
the issuer or these persons outside of Canada.

Notice to British Columbia Residents

   A purchaser of common stock to whom the Securities Act (British Columbia)
applies is advised that the purchaser is required to file with the British
Columbia Securities Commission a report within ten days of the sale of any
common stock acquired by the purchaser in this offering. This report must be in
the form attached to British Columbia Securities Commission Blanket Order BOR
#95/17, a copy of which may be obtained from us. Only one report must be filed
in respect of common stock acquired on the same date and under the same
prospectus exemption.

Taxation and Eligibility for Investment

   Canadian purchasers of common stock should consult their own legal and tax
advisors with respect to the tax consequences of an investment in the common
stock in their particular circumstances and with respect to the eligibility of
the common stock for investment by the purchaser under relevant Canadian
legislation.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

   The reincorporation described in Note 1 of the financial statements had not
been consummated at June 30, 1999. When it has been consummated, we will be in
a position to furnish the following report:

  "To the Board of Directors and
  Stockholders of Interwoven, Inc.

     In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheet and the related
  statements of operations, of stockholders' deficit and of cash flows
  present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
  Interwoven, Inc. (the "Company") at December 31, 1997 and 1998, and the
  results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
  years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with
  generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements
  are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility
  is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
  audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
  generally accepted auditing standards, which require that we plan and
  perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
  financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
  includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
  and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
  principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
  evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
  that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
  above.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
             Information as of June 30, 1999 and for the six months
                   ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 is unaudited

1. THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 The Company

   Interwoven, Inc. (the "Company") is a leading provider of software products
and services that help businesses and other organizations manage the
information that makes up the content of their web sites. In the Internet
industry this is often referred to as "web content management." Our flagship
software product, TeamSite, is designed to help customers develop, maintain and
extend large web sites that are essential to their businesses.

 Reincorporation

   In June 1999, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the
reincorporation of the Company in the State of Delaware. As a result of the
reincorporation, the Company is authorized to issue 75,000,000 shares of $0.001
par value Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value Preferred
Stock. The Board of Directors has the authority to issue undesignated Preferred
Stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and
restrictions thereof. Share and per share information for each of the periods
presented has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reincorporation.

 Unaudited interim results

   The accompanying interim financial statements as of June 30, 1999 and for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 are unaudited. The unaudited
interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual
financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all
adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to
present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash
flows for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999. The financial data and
other information disclosed in these notes to financial statements related to
these periods are unaudited. The results for the six months ended June 30, 1999
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year
ending December 31, 1999.

 Use of estimates

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

 Revenue recognition

   In October 1997 and March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants ("AICPA") issued Statement of Position No. 97-2, "Software Revenue
Recognition" ("SOP No. 97-2") and Statement of Position No. 98-4, "Deferral of
the Effective Date of a Provision of SOP No. 97-2" ("SOP No. 98-4"). SOP 98-4
defers for one year the application of certain provisions of SOP 97-2. In
December 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Position No. 98-9, "Modification
of SOP No. 97-2 with Respect to Certain Transactions" ("SOP No. 98-9"), which
is effective for transactions entered into beginning April 1, 1999. SOP 98-9
extends the effective date of SOP 98-4 and provides additional interpretive
guidance. The adoption of SOP 97-2, SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9 have not had and are
not expected to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations,
financial position or cash flows.

   The Company's revenues are derived from licenses of its software products
and from services the Company provides to its customers. Revenues are
recognized for the various contract elements based upon vendor-specific
objective evidence of fair value of each element.

                NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

          Information as of June 30, 1999 and for the six months

                 ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 is unaudited

   License revenues from resellers and end users are recognized when persuasive
evidence of an agreement exists, the product has been delivered, no significant
post-delivery obligations remain, the license fee is fixed or determinable and
collection of the fee is probable. The Company does not offer product return
rights to resellers or end users.

   Services revenues consist of professional services and maintenance fees.
Professional services primarily consists of software installation and
integration, business process consulting and training. Professional services
are billed on a time and materials basis and revenues are recognized as the
services are performed. Maintenance agreements are typically priced based on a
percentage of the product license fee and have a one-year term, renewable
annually. Services provided to customers under maintenance agreements include
technical product support and unspecified product upgrades. Deferred revenues
from advanced payments for maintenance agreements are recognized ratably over
the term of the agreement, which is typically one year.

 Cash and cash equivalents

   The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original
maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash
equivalents. Cash equivalents consist principally of money-market accounts that
are stated at historical cost, which approximates fair value.

 Concentration of credit risk

   Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to a
concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents
and accounts receivable. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by
placing its cash and cash equivalents with a major financial institution. The
Company's accounts receivable are derived from revenues earned from customers
located in the U.S. and are denominated in U.S. dollars. The Company performs
ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and,
generally, requires no collateral from its customers. The Company maintains an
allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon expected collectibility
of accounts receivable.

   The following table summarizes the revenues from customers in excess of 10%
of the total revenues.

                NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

          Information as of June 30, 1999 and for the six months

                 ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 is unaudited


 Fair value of instruments

   The Company's financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable and accounts payable, are carried at cost, which
approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
Debt and capital lease obligations are carried at cost, which approximates fair
value due to the proximity of the implicit rates of these financial instruments
and the prevailing market rates for similar instruments.

 Software development costs

   Software development costs incurred in the research and development of new
products and enhancements to existing products are charged to expense as
incurred. Software development costs are capitalized after technological
feasibility has been established. The period between achievement of
technological feasibility, which the Company defines as the establishment of a
working model, until the general availability of such software to customers,
has been short and software development costs qualifying for capitalization
have been insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has not capitalized any
software development costs since its inception.

 Capitalization of internal-use software costs

   In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
("AICPA") issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Cost
of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use".  SOP 98-1 is
effective for financial statements for years beginning after December 15, 1998
and provides guidance for the accounting of computer software developed or
obtained for internal use including the requirement to capitalize specified
costs and amortization of such costs. The Company adopted the provisions of SOP
98-1 in its fiscal year beginning January 1, 1999.

 Property and equipment

   Property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated
depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using
the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets, generally five
years or less, or the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives
of the assets, if applicable.

 Impairment of long-lived assets

   The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to be Disposed Of." SFAS No. 121 requires recognition of impairment of long-
lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds the future
undiscounted cash flows attributed to such assets.

 Stock-based compensation

   The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in
accordance with provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and complies with the
disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." Under APB 25, compensation expense is based on the difference,
if any, on the date of grant

                NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

between fair value of the Company's stock and the exercise price. The Company
accounts for stock issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of
SFAS No. 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force Consensus on Issue No. 96-18.

 Income taxes

   Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach, which
requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current year
and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of
events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax
returns. The measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities and assets are
based on provisions of the enacted tax law; the effects of future changes in
tax laws or rates are not anticipated. The measurement of deferred tax assets
is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on
available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

 Net loss per share

   The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings per Share" and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 98. Under
the provisions of SFAS No. 128 and SAB No. 98, basic net loss per share is
computed by dividing the net loss attributed to common stockholders for the
period by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
during the period excluding shares of Common Stock subject to repurchase. Such
shares of Common Stock subject to repurchase aggregated 73,333, 1,737,435,
1,527,472 (unaudited), and 1,997,580 (unaudited) as of December 31, 1997 and
1998 and June 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

per share for the periods indicated (in thousands, except per share amounts):

 Pro forma net loss per share (unaudited)

   Pro forma net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding, including the pro forma effects of the
exercise of warrants to purchase Series B Preferred Stock and automatic
conversion of the Company's Series A, B, C, D and E Preferred Stock into shares
of the Company's Common Stock effective upon the closing of the Company's
initial public offering as if such conversion occurred at the beginning of the
period, or at the date of issuance, if later. The resulting pro forma
adjustment for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the six months ended June
30, 1999 includes (i) an increase in the weighted average shares used to
compute the basic net loss per share of 5,896,280 and 10,564,993 (unaudited),
respectively, and (ii) a decrease in the net loss attributable to common
stockholders for the accretion of mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred
stock of $1,165,000 and $6,350,000 (unaudited), respectively. The calculation
of diluted net loss per share excludes potential shares of Common Stock as
their effect would be antidilutive. Pro forma potential Common Stock consists
of Common Stock subject to repurchase rights and incremental shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options.

 Pro forma stockholders' equity (unaudited)

   Effective upon the closing of the Company's initial public offering, the
outstanding shares of Series A, B, C, D and E Preferred Stock will
automatically convert into 746,664, 2,134,548, 4,773,161, 2,494,142, and
2,263,136 shares of Common Stock, respectively. The pro forma effects of these
transactions are unaudited and have been reflected in the accompanying pro
forma balance sheet at June 30, 1999.

 Comprehensive income

   Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No.

reporting comprehensive income and its components in financial statements.
Comprehensive income, as defined, includes all changes in equity (net

NOTE 3--DEBT:

   In June 1999, the Company amended a financing agreement (the "Financing
Agreement") originally entered into in June 1998, whereby the bank will loan up
to 80% of eligible accounts receivable up to a maximum of $3,000,000
(unaudited) for working capital purposes. Working capital advances accrue
interest at the bank's prime rate and are payable monthly with principal due
one year subsequent to the date of any advance. The Financing Agreement
provides for additional borrowings of up to $1,500,000 to finance equipment
purchases. Advances for equipment purchases accrue interest at the bank's prime
rate plus .25% and advances are payable monthly for one year subsequent to the
date of any advance. Thereafter, the outstanding balance will be due in 36
monthly installments. The Agreement requires the Company to comply with certain
financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at
December 31, 1998 and for the six months ended June 30, 1999 (unaudited).

   Future minimum principal payments under the Financing Agreement are as
follows (in thousands):

   In January 1997, the Company issued $375,000 of convertible promissory notes
payable. The notes bore interest at 6% per year. In connection with the
issuance of the notes, the Company issued to the note holders warrants to
purchase 82,219 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $1.29 per share. The
warrants expire at the earlier of November 2001 or upon an initial public
offering of the Company's Common Stock. The Company recorded a $94,000 discount
to the notes for the value of the warrants, which was recognized in 1997 as
additional interest expense.

   In May 1997, the principal amounts and accrued interest outstanding for the
notes were converted into 357,182 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (see Note
6).

and $1,178,000 of state net operating tax loss carryforwards available to
reduce future taxable income which expire in 2015 and 2010 for federal and
state tax purposes, respectively. Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the amounts
of and benefits from net operating loss carryforwards may be impaired or
limited in certain circumstances. Events which cause limitations in the amount
of net operating losses that the Company may utilize in any one year include,
but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of more than 50%, as
defined, over a three year period.

   Deferred tax assets consist of the following (in thousands):

   For financial reporting purposes, the Company has incurred a loss in each
year since its inception. Based on the available objective evidence, management
believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not
be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company has provided for a full valuation
allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 1997 and 1998 and
June 30, 1999 (unaudited).

and in preference to any distribution to the holders of the Common Stock, an
amount equal to $0.20, $1.29, $1.08 and $1.87 per share, respectively, plus any
declared but unpaid dividends. Any amounts remaining after such distribution

   Upon the request of holders of at least 50% of the outstanding shares of

$1.29, $1.08 and $1.87 per share, respectively, plus any undeclared and unpaid
dividends and an amount equal to that amount which would result in the holder

redemption date.

Common Stock on an "as if" converted basis. Holders of Series E Preferred Stock
are entitled to receive non-cumulative annual dividends of $0.45 per share,
when and if declared by the Company's Board of Directors. Dividends on the
Preferred Stock shall be payable in preference and prior to any payment of any
dividend on the Common Stock. The holders of the Series E Preferred Stock will
also be entitled to participate in dividends on the Common Stock, when and if
declared by the Board of Directors, based on the number of shares of Common
Stock held on an as-converted basis. No dividends have been declared from
inception through June 30, 1999 (unaudited).

   In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, winding up or merger where
less than 50% of the voting power is maintained by the Company, the holders of
the Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in
preference to any distribution to the holders of the Common Stock, an amount
equal to $5.66 per share, respectively, plus any declared but unpaid dividends.
Any amounts remaining after such distribution shall be distributed among the
holders of Series E Preferred Stock, and Common Stock on an "as if" converted
basis until the holders of Series E have received an aggregate liquidation
payment of $8.49, thereafter any remaining amounts shall be distributed among

NOTE 8--EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN:

   In August 1996, the Company adopted the 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "1996
Plan") and in March 1998 it adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the "1998
Plan") (collectively, the "Plans"). The Plans provide for grants of stock
options to employees and consultants of the Company. Options granted under the
Plan may be either incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options.
Incentive stock options ("ISO") may be granted only to employees (including
officers and directors who are also employees) of the Company. Nonqualified
stock options may be granted to employees and consultants of the Company.

   Options under the Plans may be granted for periods of up to ten years and at
prices no less than 85% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the date
of grant as determined by the Board of Directors, provided, however, that (i)
the exercise price of an ISO shall not be less than 100% of the estimated fair
value of the shares on the date of grant and (ii) the exercise price of an ISO
granted to a 10% stockholder shall not be less than 110% of the estimated fair
value of the shares on the date of grant and are for periods not to exceed five
years. Options are immediately exercisable but are subject to repurchase by the
Company at the original exercise price. The repurchase feature generally
expires for 25% of the shares after the first year of service and then expires
ratably over the next 36 months.

   The following table summarizes the activity under the Plans for the years
ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and the six months ended June 30, 1999 (shares in

 Deferred stock-based compensation

   In connection with certain stock option grants during the year ended
December 31, 1998 and the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company
recognized deferred stock-based compensation totaling $1.9 million and $6.7
million (unaudited), respectively, which is being amortized over the vesting
periods of the applicable options. Amortization expense recognized during the
year ended December 31, 1998 and the six months ended June 30, 1999 totaled
approximately $812,000 and $1.7 million (unaudited), respectively.

NOTE 9--SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

 Stock Split

   Prior to the effectiveness of the Company's initial public offering, the
Company's Board of Directors intends to effect a two-for-three reverse stock
split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. All common share and per share
information included in these financial statements have been retroactively
adjusted to reflect this stock split.

 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

   In July 1999, the Board adopted, subject to stockholder approval, the 1999
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan") and reserved 300,000 shares
of Common Stock for issuance thereunder. On each January 1, the aggregate
number of shares reserved for issuance under this plan will increase
automatically by a number of shares equal to 1% of the Company's outstanding
shares on December 31 of the preceding year. The aggregate number of shares
reserved for issuance under the Purchase Plan shall not exceed 3,000,000
shares. The Purchase Plan will become effective on the first business day on
which price quotations for the Company's Common Stock are available on the
Nasdaq National Market. Employees generally will be eligible to participate in
the Purchase Plan if they are customarily employed by the Company for more than
20 hours per week and more than five months in a calendar year and are not (and
would not become as a result of being granted an option under the Purchase
Plan) 5% stockholders of the Company. Under the Purchase Plan, eligible
employees may select a rate of payroll deduction between 2% and 10% of their W-
2 cash compensation subject to certain maximum purchase limitations. Each
offering period will have a maximum duration of two years and consists of four
six-month Purchase Periods. The first Offering Period is expected to begin on
the first business day on which price quotations for the Company's Common Stock
are available on the Nasdaq National Market. Depending on the Effective Date,
the first Purchase Period may be more or less than six months long. Offering
Periods and Purchase Periods thereafter will begin on February 1 and August 1.
The price at which the Common Stock is purchased under the Purchase Plan is 85%
of the lesser of the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on the
first day of the applicable offering period or on the last day of that purchase
period. The Purchase Plan will terminate after a period of ten years unless
terminated earlier as permitted by the Purchase Plan.

 1999 Equity Incentive Plan

   In July 1999, the Board adopted, subject to stockholder approval, the 1999
Equity Incentive Plan (the "1999 Plan") and reserved 2,900,000 shares of Common
Stock for issuance thereunder. The 1999 Plan authorized the award of options,
restricted stock awards and stock bonuses (each an "Award"). No person will be
eligible to receive more than 1,000,000 shares in any calendar year pursuant to
Awards under the 1999 Plan other than a new employee of the Company who will be
eligible to receive no more than 1,500,000 shares in the calendar year in which
such employee commences employment. Options granted under the 1999 Plan may

                             INTERWOVEN, INC.

                NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

          Information as of June 30, 1999 and for the six months

                 ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 is unaudited

be either incentive stock options ("ISO") or nonqualified stock options
("NSO"). ISOs may be granted only to Company employees (including officers and
directors who are also employees). NSOs may be granted to Company employees,
officers, directors, consultants, independent contractors and advisors of the
Company.

   Options under the Plan may be granted for periods of up to ten years and at
prices no less than 85% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the date
of grant as determined by the Board of Directors, provided, however, that (i)
the exercise price of an ISO may not be less than 100% of the estimated fair
value of the shares on the date of grant, and (ii) the exercise price of an ISO
granted to a 10% stockholder may not be less than 110% of the estimated fair
value of the shares on the date of grant. The maximum term of options granted
under the 1999 Plan is ten years.

   Members of the Board who are not employees of the Company, or any parent,
subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, are eligible to participate in the 1999
Plan. The option grants under the 1999 Plan are automatic and nondiscretionary,
and the exercise price of the options must be 100% of the fair market value of
the Common Stock on the date of grant. Each eligible director who first becomes
a member of the Board on or after the effective date of the Registration
Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part (the "Effective Date") will
initially be granted an option to purchase 20,000 shares (an "Initial Grant")
on the date such director first becomes a director. Immediately following each
Annual Meeting of the Company, each eligible director will automatically be
granted an additional option to purchase 10,000 shares if such director has
served continuously as a member of the Board since the date of such director's
Initial Grant or, if such director was ineligible to receive an Initial Grant,
since the Effective Date. The term of such options is ten years, provided that
they will terminate 7 months following the date the director ceases to be a
director or a consultant of the Company (twelve months if the termination is
due to death or disability). All options granted under the Directors Plan will
vest 100% of the shares upon the date of issuance.

 Acquisition

   Effective July 1, 1999, the Company acquired all the assets and liabilities
of Lexington Software Associates Incorporated, which is a provider of
configuration management solutions and development methodologies, including
consulting and education. The acquisition has been accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting and accordingly, the purchase price has been
allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities
assumed on the basis of their respective fair values at the acquisition date.

   The total purchase price of approximately $769,000 consisted of 88,339
shares of the Company's Series E Preferred Stock (estimated fair value of
$500,000), seven-year warrants to purchase 17,668 shares of Series E Preferred
Stock at $5.66 per share (estimated fair value of $77,000), and other
acquisition-related expenses of approximately $192,000.

   Of the total purchase price, approximately $794,000 was allocated to
goodwill, which will be amortized over its estimated useful life of 48 months.
The remainder of the purchase price was allocated to net tangible liabilities
assumed of $25,000.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

   Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to
award, or a corporation's board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors
and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under
certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses
incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act").

   As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Registrant's
Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the personal
liability of its directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty
as a director, except for liability:

  .  for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or
     its stockholders,

  .  for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional
     misconduct or a knowing violation of law,

  .  under section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (regarding
     unlawful dividends and stock purchases), or

  .  for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
     benefit.

   As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Registrant's
Bylaws provide that:

  .  the Registrant is required to indemnify its directors and officers to
     the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law,
     subject to certain very limited exceptions,

  .  the Registrant may indemnify its other employees and agents as set forth
     in the Delaware General Corporation Law,

  .  the Registrant is required to advance expenses, as incurred, to its
     directors and officers in connection with a legal proceeding to the
     fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law,
     subject to certain very limited exceptions, and

  .  the rights conferred in the Bylaws are not exclusive.

                                     II-1
<PAGE>

   The Registrant intends to enter into Indemnity Agreements with each of its
current directors and officers to give such directors and officers additional
contractual assurances regarding the scope of the indemnification set forth in
the Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and to
provide additional procedural protections. At present, there is no pending
litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer or employee of the
Registrant regarding which indemnification is sought, nor is the Registrant
aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for
indemnification.

   Reference is also made to Section 7 of the draft Underwriting Agreement to
be entered into between the Registrant and the underwriters, which will
provide for the indemnification of officers, directors and controlling persons
of the Registrant against certain liabilities. The indemnification provisions
in the Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws
and the Indemnity Agreements to be entered into between the Registrant and
each of its directors and officers may be sufficiently broad to permit
indemnification of the Registrant's directors and officers for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act.

   The Registrant maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance.

   See also the undertakings set out in response to Item 17.

   Reference is made to the following documents filed as exhibits to this
Registration Statement regarding relevant indemnification provisions described
above and elsewhere herein:

Item 17. Undertakings.

   The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the Underwriters
at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriters to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the provisions described under Item 14 above, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In
the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of
any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

   The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

     (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
  the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
  Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form
  of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or
  497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
  Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

     (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
  Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
  be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
  offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
  deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Dear Sirs:

    1.  Introductory. Interwoven, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Company"),
        ------------                                             -------

Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Securities") and also proposes to issue and
                                    ----------
sell to the Underwriters, at the option of the Underwriters, an aggregate of not
more than [________] additional shares ("Optional Securities") of its Securities
                                         -------------------
as set forth below. The Firm Securities and the Optional Securities are herein
collectively called the "Offered Securities." As part of the offering
                         ------------------
contemplated by this Agreement, [____________________] (the "Designated
                                                             ----------
Underwriter") has agreed to reserve out of the Firm Securities purchased by it
- -----------

Company's directors, officers, employees and other parties associated with the

                                                       ----------------------
The Firm Securities to be sold by the Designated Underwriter pursuant to the
Directed Share Program (the "Directed Shares") will be sold by the Designated

                                                                  ------------
as follows:

    2.   Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The Company represents
         ---------------------------------------------
and warrants to, and agrees with, the several Underwriters that:

         (a)  A registration statement (No. 333-______) relating to the Offered
Securities, including a form of prospectus, has been filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("Commission") and either (i) has been declared
                          ----------
effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Act") and is not
                                                         ---
proposed to be amended or (ii) is proposed to be amended by amendment or post-
effective amendment. If such registration statement ("initial registration
                                                      --------------------
statement") has been declared effective, either (i) an additional registration
- ---------
statement ("additional registration statement") relating to the Offered
            ---------------------------------
Securities may have been filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b)
("Rule 462(b)") under the Act and, if so filed, has become effective upon filing
  -----------
pursuant to such Rule and the Offered Securities all have been duly registered
under the Act pursuant to the initial registration statement and, if applicable,
the additional registration statement or (ii) such an additional registration
statement is proposed to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b)
and will become effective upon filing pursuant to such Rule and upon such filing
the Offered Securities will all have been duly registered under the Act pursuant
to the initial registration statement and such additional registration
statement. If the Company does not propose to amend the initial registration
statement or if an additional registration statement has been filed and the
Company does not propose to amend it, and if any post-effective amendment to
either such registration statement has
<PAGE>

been filed with the Commission prior to the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the most recent amendment (if any) to each such registration
statement has been declared effective by the Commission or has become effective
upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c) ("Rule 462(c)") under the Act or, in the
                                      -----------
case of the additional registration statement, Rule 462(b). For purposes of this
Agreement, "Effective Time" with respect to the initial registration statement
            --------------
or, if filed prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
additional registration statement means (i) if the Company has advised the
Representatives that it does not propose to amend such registration statement,
the date and time as of which such registration statement, or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereto (if any) filed prior to the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, was declared effective by the Commission or has
become effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c), or (ii) if the Company has
advised the Representatives that it proposes to file an amendment or post-
effective amendment to such registration statement, the date and time as of
which such registration statement, as amended by such amendment or post-
effective amendment, as the case may be, is declared effective by the
Commission. If an additional registration statement has not been filed prior to
the execution and delivery of this Agreement but the Company has advised the
Representatives that it proposes to file one, "Effective Time" with respect to
                                               --------------
such additional registration statement means the date and time as of which such
registration statement is filed and becomes effective pursuant to Rule 462(b).
"Effective Date" with respect to the initial registration statement or the
 --------------
additional registration statement (if any) means the date of the Effective Time
thereof. The initial registration statement, as amended at its Effective Time,
including all information contained in the additional registration statement (if
any) and deemed to be a part of the initial registration statement as of the
Effective Time of the additional registration statement pursuant to the General
Instructions of the Form on which it is filed and including all information (if
any) deemed to be a part of the initial registration statement as of its
Effective Time pursuant to Rule 430A(b) ("Rule 430A(b)") under the Act, is
                                          ------------
hereinafter referred to as the "Initial Registration Statement". The additional
                                ------------------------------
registration statement, as amended at its Effective Time, including the contents
of the initial registration statement incorporated by reference therein and
including all information (if any) deemed to be a part of the additional
registration statement as of its Effective Time pursuant to Rule 430A(b), is
hereinafter referred to as the "Additional Registration Statement". The Initial
                                ---------------------------------
Registration Statement and the Additional Registration Statement are herein
referred to collectively as the "Registration Statements" and individually as a
                                 -----------------------
"Registration Statement". The form of prospectus relating to the Offered
 ----------------------
Securities, as first filed with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance
with Rule 424(b) ("Rule 424(b)") under the Act or (if no such filing is
                   -----------
required) as included in a Registration Statement, is hereinafter referred to as
the "Prospectus". No document has been or will be prepared or distributed in
     ----------
reliance on Rule 434 under the Act.

         (b)  If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is
prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement: (i) on the Effective Date
of the Initial Registration Statement, the Initial Registration Statement
conformed in all respects to the requirements of the Act and the rules and
regulations of the Commission ("Rules and Regulations") and did not include any
                                ---------------------
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
(ii) on the Effective Date of the Additional Registration Statement (if any),
each Registration Statement conformed, or will conform, in all respects to the
requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations and did not include, or
will not include, any untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit, or
will not omit, to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) on the date of
this Agreement, the Initial Registration Statement and, if the Effective Time of
the Additional Registration Statement is prior to the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, the Additional Registration Statement each conforms, and at the
time of filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) or (if no such filing
is required) at the Effective Date of the Additional Registration Statement in
which the Prospectus is included, each Registration Statement and the Prospectus
will conform, in all respects to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and
Regulations, and neither of such documents includes, or will include, any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits, or will omit, to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading. If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is
subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement: on the Effective
Date of the Initial

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Registration Statement, the Initial Registration Statement and the Prospectus
will conform in all respects to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and
Regulations, neither of such documents will include any untrue statement of
material fact or will omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and no
Additional Registration Statement has been or will be filed. The two preceding
sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from a Registration
Statement or the Prospectus based upon written information furnished to the

therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information is that
described as such in Section 7(b) hereof.

         (c)  The Company has been duly incorporated and is an existing

         (e)  The Offered Securities and all other outstanding shares of

contained in the Prospectus; and the stockholders of the Company have no
preemptive rights with respect to the Securities.

         (f)  Except as disclosed in the Prospectus, there are no contracts,
agreements or understandings between the Company and any person that would give

         (g)  There are no contracts, agreements or understandings between the
Company and any person granting such person the right to require the Company to

Statement or in any securities being registered pursuant to any other
registration statement filed by the Company under the Act.

         (h)  The Offered Securities have been approved for listing on The
Nasdaq Stock Market's National Market, subject to notice of issuance.

         (i)  No consent, approval, authorization, or order of, or filing with,
any governmental agency or body or any court is required for the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in connection with the issuance
and sale of the Offered Securities by the Company, except such as have been
obtained and made under the Act and such as may be required under state

         (j)  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and
the issuance and sale of the Offered Securities will not result in a breach or

    5.  Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company agrees with the several
        ---------------------------------
Underwriters that:

         (a)  If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is

424(b) not later than the earlier of (A) the second business day following the
execution and delivery of this Agreement or (B) the fifteenth business day after
the Effective Date of the Initial Registration Statement.

    The Company will advise CSFBC promptly of any such filing pursuant to
Rule 424(b). If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is
prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and an additional
registration statement is necessary to register a portion of the Offered
Securities under the Act but the Effective Time thereof has not occurred as of
such execution and delivery, the Company will file the additional registration
statement or, if filed, will file a post-effective amendment thereto with the
Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 462(b) on or prior to 10:00
P.M., New York time, on the date of this Agreement or, if earlier, on or prior

         (b)  The Company will advise CSFBC promptly of any proposal to amend or
supplement the initial or any additional registration statement as filed or the
related prospectus or the Initial Registration Statement, the Additional
Registration Statement (if any) or the Prospectus and will not effect such
amendment or supplementation without CSFBC's consent; and the Company will also
advise CSFBC promptly of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement (if
its Effective Time is subsequent to the execution and delivery of this
Agreement) and of any amendment or supplementation of a Registration Statement

as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to amend the Prospectus to comply
with the Act, the Company will promptly notify CSFBC of such event and will
promptly prepare and file with the Commission, at its own expense, an amendment
or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or an amendment
which will effect such compliance. Neither CSFBC's consent to, nor the
Underwriters' delivery of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a
waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.

         (d)  As soon as practicable, but not later than the Availability Date

securityholders an earnings statement covering a period of at least 12 months

Company's fiscal year, "Availability Date" means the 90th day after the end of

Registration Statement (four of which will be signed and will include all
exhibits), each related preliminary prospectus, and, so long as a prospectus
relating to the Offered Securities is required to be delivered under the Act in

offering of the Offered Securities, the Company will not offer, sell, contract

         (k)  Except with the prior written consent of CSFBC, the Company
agrees (i) not to amend or terminate, or waive any right under, any Lock-up
Agreement, or take any other action that would directly or indirectly have the
same effect as an amendment or termination, or waiver of any right under any
Lock-up Agreement, that would permit any holder of Securities, or any securities
convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Securities, to make any
short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise transfer or

         (b)  The Company shall have received from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
(and furnished to the Representatives) an examination report with respect to
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations of the Company for the three fiscal years ending December 31, 1998 in
accordance with Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagement No. 8 issued
by the Auditing Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants, and such examination report shall be included in the Registration
Statement.

         (c)  If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration Statement is
not prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, such Effective Time
shall have occurred not later than 10:00 P.M., New York time, on the date of
this Agreement or such later date as shall have been consented to by CSFBC. If
the Effective Time of the Additional Registration Statement (if any) is not
prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, such Effective Time shall
have occurred not later than 10:00 P.M., New York time, on the date of this
Agreement or, if earlier, the time the Prospectus is printed and distributed to
any Underwriter, or shall have occurred at such later date as shall have been
consented to by CSFBC. If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration
Statement is prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Prospectus shall have been filed with the Commission in accordance with the
Rules and Regulations and Section 5(a) of this Agreement. Prior to such Closing
Date, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement
shall have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been
instituted or, to the knowledge of the Company or the Representatives, shall be
contemplated by the Commission.

         (d)  Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
there shall not have occurred (i) any change, or any development or event
involving a prospective change, in the condition (financial or other), business,
properties or results of operations of the Company or its subsidiaries taken as
one enterprise which, in the judgment of a majority in interest of the
Underwriters including the Representatives, is material and adverse and makes it
impractical or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the public offering or
the sale of and payment for the Offered Securities; (ii) any downgrading in the
rating of any debt securities of the Company by any "nationally recognized
statistical rating organization" (as defined for purposes of Rule 436(g) under
the Act), or any public announcement that any such organization has under
surveillance or review its rating of any debt securities of the Company (other
than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading, and no
implication of a possible downgrading, of such rating); (iii) any material
suspension or material limitation of trading in securities generally on the New
York Stock Exchange, or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such
exchange, or any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company on any
exchange or in the over-the-counter market; (iv) any banking moratorium declared
by U.S. Federal or New York authorities; or (v) any outbreak or escalation of
major hostilities in which the United States is involved, any declaration of war
by Congress or any other substantial national or international calamity or
emergency if, in the judgment of a majority in interest of the Underwriters
including the Representatives, the effect of any such outbreak, escalation,
declaration, calamity or emergency makes it impractical or inadvisable to
proceed with completion of the public offering or the sale of and payment for
the Offered Securities.

         (e)  The Representatives shall have received an opinion, dated such
Closing Date, of Fenwick & West, counsel for the Company, to the effect that:

                                      -11-

     corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with
     corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct its
     business as described in the Prospectus; and the Company is duly qualified
     to do business as a foreign corporation in good standing in all other
     jurisdictions in which its ownership or lease of property or the conduct of
     its business requires such qualification;

              (ii)   Each subsidiary of the Company has been duly incorporated
     and is an existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the
     jurisdiction of its incorporation, with corporate power and authority to
     own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Prospectus;
     and each subsidiary of the Company is duly qualified to do business as a
     foreign corporation in good standing in all other jurisdictions in which
     its ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business requires
     such qualification; all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each
     subsidiary of the Company has been duly authorized and validly issued and
     is fully paid and nonassessable; and the capital stock of each subsidiary
     owned by the Company, direct or through subsidiaries, is owned free from
     liens, encumbrances and defects;

              (iii)  The Offered Securities delivered on such Closing Date and
     all other outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company have been
     duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and
     conform to the description thereof contained in the Prospectus; and the
     stockholders of the Company have no preemptive rights with respect to the
     Securities;

              (iv)   Except as disclosed in the Prospectus, there are no
     contracts, agreements or understandings known to such counsel between the
     Company and any person granting such person the right to require the
     Company to file a registration statement under the Act with respect to any
     securities of the Company owned or to be owned by such person or to require
     the Company to include such securities in the securities registered
     pursuant to the Registration Statement or in any securities being
     registered pursuant to any other registration statement filed by the
     Company under the Act;

              (v)    The Company is not and, after giving effect to the
     offering and sale of the Offered Securities and the application of the
     proceeds thereof as described in the Prospectus, will not be an "investment
     company" as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940.

              (vi)   No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing
     with, any governmental agency or body or any court is required for the
     consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in
     connection with the issuance or sale of the Offered Securities by the
     Company, except such as have been obtained and made under the Act and such
     as may be required under state securities laws;

              (vii)  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
     and the issuance and sale of the Offered Securities will not result in a
     breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a
     default under, any statute, any rule, regulation or order of any
     governmental agency or body or any court having jurisdiction over the
     Company or any subsidiary of the Company or any of their properties, or any
     agreement or instrument to which the Company or any such subsidiary is a
     party or by which the Company or any such subsidiary is bound or to which
     any of the properties of the Company or any such subsidiary is subject, or
     the charter or by-laws of the Company

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

     or any such subsidiary, and the Company has full power and authority to
     authorize, issue and sell the Offered Securities as contemplated by this
     Agreement;

              (viii) The Initial Registration Statement was declared effective
     under the Act as of the date and time specified in such opinion, the
     Additional Registration Statement (if any) was filed and became effective
     under the Act as of the date and time (if determinable) specified in such
     opinion, the Prospectus either was filed with the Commission pursuant to
     the subparagraph of Rule 424(b) specified in such opinion on the date
     specified therein or was included in the Initial Registration Statement or
     the Additional Registration Statement (as the case may be), and, to the
     best of the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the
     effectiveness of a Registration Statement or any part thereof has been
     issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are
     pending or contemplated under the Act, and each Registration Statement and
     the Prospectus, and each amendment or supplement thereto, as of their
     respective effective or issue dates, complied as to form in all material
     respects with the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations;
     such counsel have no reason to believe that any part of a Registration
     Statement or any amendment thereto, as of its effective date or as of such
     Closing Date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted
     to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
     make the statements therein not misleading or that the Prospectus or any
     amendment or supplement thereto, as of its issue date or as of such Closing
     Date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state
     any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
     light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; the
     descriptions in the Registration Statements and Prospectus of statutes,
     legal and governmental proceedings and contracts and other documents are
     accurate and fairly present the information required to be shown; and such
     counsel do not know of any legal or governmental proceedings required to be
     described in a Registration Statement or the Prospectus which are not
     described as required or of any contracts or documents of a character
     required to be described in a Registration Statement or the Prospectus or
     to be filed as exhibits to a Registration Statement which are not described
     and filed as required; it being understood that such counsel need express
     no opinion as to the financial statements or other financial data contained
     in the Registration Statements or the Prospectus;

              (ix)   The statements set forth under the heading "Description
     of Capital Stock" in the Prospectus, insofar as such statements purport to
     summarize certain provisions of the capital stock of the Company, provide a
     fair summary of such provisions; and the statements set forth under the
     headings "Risk Factors-We Have Various Mechanisms in Place to Discourage
     Takeover Attempts," "Management-Director Compensation," "Management--
     Employment Agreements," "Management-Indemnification of Directors and
     Executive Officers and Limitation of Liability," "Certain Transactions" and
     "Shares Eligible For Future Sale" in the Prospectus, insofar as such
     statements constitute a summary of the legal matters, documents or
     proceedings referred to therein, have been reviewed by such counsel and
     fairly present the information called for with respect to such legal
     matters, documents and proceedings in all material respects as required by
     the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder;

              (x)    This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and
     delivered by the Company;

              (xi)   The execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement,
     effecting the reincorporation of the California Corporation under the laws
     of the State of Delaware, was duly authorized by all necessary corporate
     action on the part of each of the California Corporation and the Company;
     and

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

              (xii)  Under the provisions of Rule 152 promulgated under the
     Act, the Company's issuance of Series E Preferred Stock on June 10, 1999 is
     not integrated with the offering contemplated hereby. Such issuance was
     exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act pursuant
     to Section 4(2) thereof.


         (f)  The Representatives shall have received from Wilson Sonsini
     Goodrich & Rosati, counsel for the Underwriters, such opinion or opinions,
     dated such Closing Date, with respect to the incorporation of the Company,
     the validity of the Offered Securities delivered on such Closing Date, the
     Registration Statements, the Prospectus and other related matters as the
     Representatives may require, and the Company shall have furnished to such
     counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to
     pass upon such matters.

         (g)  The Representatives shall have received a certificate, dated such
     Closing Date, of the President or any Vice President and a principal
     financial or accounting officer of the Company in which such officers, to
     the best of their knowledge after reasonable investigation, shall state
     that: the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement
     are true and correct; the Company has complied with all agreements and
     satisfied all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder
     at or prior to such Closing Date; no stop order suspending the
     effectiveness of any Registration Statement has been issued and no
     proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are contemplated by
     the Commission; the Additional Registration Statement (if any) satisfying
     the requirements of subparagraphs (1) and (3) of Rule 462(b) was filed
     pursuant to Rule 462(b), including payment of the applicable filing fee in
     accordance with Rule 111(a) or (b) under the Act, prior to the time the
     Prospectus was printed and distributed to any Underwriter; and, subsequent
     to the date of the most recent financial statements in the Prospectus,
     there has been no material adverse change, nor any development or event
     involving a prospective material adverse change, in the condition
     (financial or other), business, properties or results of operations of the
     Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole except as set forth in or
     contemplated by the Prospectus or as described in such certificate.

         (h)  The Representatives shall have received a letter, dated such
     Closing Date, of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP which meets the requirements of
     subsection (a) of this Section, except that the specified date referred to
     in such subsection will be a date not more than three days prior to such
     Closing Date for the purposes of this subsection.

    The Company will furnish the Representatives with such conformed copies of
such opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Representatives
reasonably request.  CSFBC may in its sole discretion waive on behalf of the
Underwriters compliance with any conditions to the obligations of the
Underwriters hereunder, whether in respect of an Optional Closing Date or
otherwise.

    7.  Indemnification and Contribution.  (a)  The Company will indemnify and
        --------------------------------
hold harmless each Underwriter, its partners, directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15
of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement,
the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any related
preliminary prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse
each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however,
that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such
loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement in or

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter
through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood
and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists
of the information described as such in subsection (b) below.

    The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Designated
Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls the Designated Underwriter
within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange
Act (the "Designated Entities"), from and against any and all losses, claims,
          -------------------
damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any
such action or claim) (i) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any material prepared by or with the
consent of the Company for distribution to Participants in connection with the
Directed Share Program or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading; (ii) caused by the failure of any Participant
to pay for and accept delivery of Directed Shares that the Participant agreed to
purchase; or (iii) related to, arising out of, or in connection with the
Directed Share Program, other than losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
expenses relating thereto) that are finally judicially determined to have
resulted from the bad faith or gross negligence of the Designated Entities.

         (b)  Each Underwriter will severally and not jointly indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each person, if any
who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become
subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
any Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or any related preliminary prospectus, or arise out of or are based
upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made
in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use
therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood
and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists
of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each
Underwriter: the concession and reallowance figures appearing in the fourth
paragraph under the caption "Underwriting" and the information regarding sales
to discretionary accounts and stabilizing transactions contained in the sixth
and thirteenth paragraphs, respectively, under the caption "Underwriting".

         (c)  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party
under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will
not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is
brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of
the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying
party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent
of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after
notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so
to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, if indemnity may be sought pursuant to the
last paragraph in Section 7(a) hereof in respect of such action or proceeding,
then in addition to such separate firm for the indemnified parties, the
indemnifying party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

of not more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the
Designated Underwriter for the defense of any losses, claims, damages and
liabilities arising out of the Directed Share Program, and all persons, if any,
who control the Designated Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15
of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act. No indemnifying party shall,
without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes
an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any
claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a
statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by
or on behalf of an indemnified party.

         (d)  If the indemnification provided for in this Section is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by
the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering
of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not
only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative
fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand
and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion
as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received
by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received
by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified
party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in
the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal
or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this
subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no
Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount
by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and
distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any
damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of
such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations in
this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective
underwriting obligations and not joint.

         (e)  The obligations of the Company under this Section shall be in
addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend,
upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any
Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the
Underwriters under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the
respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms
and conditions, to each director of the Company, to each officer of the Company
who has signed a Registration Statement and to each person, if any, who controls
the Company within the meaning of the Act.

    8.  Default of Underwriters.  If any Underwriter or Underwriters default in
        -----------------------
their obligations to purchase Offered Securities hereunder on either the First
or any Optional Closing Date and the aggregate number of shares of Offered
Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to
purchase does not exceed 10% of the total number of shares of Offered Securities
that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, CSFBC may
make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Offered
Securities by other persons, including any of the Underwriters,

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

but if no such arrangements are made by such Closing Date, the non-defaulting
Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective
commitments hereunder, to purchase the Offered Securities that such defaulting
Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing Date. If any
Underwriter or Underwriters so default and the aggregate number of shares of
Offered Securities with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds
10% of the total number of shares of Offered Securities that the Underwriters
are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to
CSFBC and the Company for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other
persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will
terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the
Company, except as provided in Section 9 (provided that if such default occurs
with respect to Optional Securities after the First Closing Date, this Agreement
will not terminate as to the Firm Securities or any Optional Securities
purchased prior to such termination). As used in this Agreement, the term
"Underwriter" includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this
Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for
its default.

    9.  Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations.  The respective
        ---------------------------------------------------
indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the
Company or its officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made
pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of
any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf
of any Underwriter, the Company or any of their respective representatives,
officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of
and payment for the Offered Securities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant
to Section 8 or if for any reason the purchase of the Offered Securities by the
Underwriters is not consummated, the Company shall remain responsible for the
expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 5 and the respective
obligations of the Company and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 7 shall
remain in effect, and if any Offered Securities have been purchased hereunder
the representations and warranties in Section 2 and all obligations under
Section 5 shall also remain in effect. If the purchase of the Offered Securities
by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other than solely because
of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8 or the occurrence of
any event specified in clause (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section 6(c), the Company
will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees
and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the
offering of the Offered Securities.

    10.  Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent
         -------
to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to
the Representatives c/o Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, Eleven Madison

2000, Sunnyvale, California 94087, Attention: David Allen; provided, however,
that any notice to an Underwriter pursuant to Section 7 will be mailed,
delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to such Underwriter.

    11.  Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding
         ----------
upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and
directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 7, and no other person
will have any right or obligation hereunder.

    12.  Representation of Underwriters.  The Representatives will act for the
         ------------------------------
several Underwriters in connection with this financing, and any action under
this Agreement taken by the Representatives jointly or by CSFBC will be binding
upon all the Underwriters.

    13.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of
         ------------
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

    14.  Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
         --------------
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles
of conflicts of laws.

                                INTERWOVEN, INC.

                                   ARTICLE I

         The name of the corporation is Interwoven, Inc.

                                   ARTICLE II

         The address of the registered office of the corporation in the State of
Delaware is 1013 Centre Road, City of Wilmington, County of New Castle.  The
name of its registered agent at that address is Corporation Service Company.

                                  ARTICLE III

         The purpose of the corporation is to engage in any lawful act or
activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation
Law of the State of Delaware.

                                   ARTICLE IV

     The total number of shares of all classes of stock which the corporation
has authority to issue is One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares, consisting
of two classes:  Seventy-Five Million (75,000,000) shares of Common Stock,
$0.001 par value per share, and Twenty-Five Million (25,000,000) shares of
Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share.

     The Board of Directors is authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed
by the law of the State of Delaware, to provide for the issuance of the shares
of Preferred Stock in one or more series, and, by filing a Certificate of
Designation pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Delaware, to
establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such
series, to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of
each such series and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof,
and to increase or decrease the number of shares of any such series (but not
below the number of shares of such series then outstanding).  The number of
authorized shares of Preferred Stock may also be increased or decreased (but not
below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of
the holders of a majority of the stock of the corporation entitled to vote,
unless a vote of any other holders is required pursuant to a Certificate or
Certificates establishing a series of Preferred Stock.

     Except as otherwise expressly provided in any Certificate of Designation
designating any series of Preferred Stock pursuant to the foregoing provisions
of this Article IV, any new series
<PAGE>

of Preferred Stock may be designated, fixed and determined as provided herein by
the Board of Directors without approval of the holders of Common Stock or the
holders of Preferred Stock, or any series thereof, and any such new series may
have powers, preferences and rights, including, without limitation, voting
rights, dividend rights, liquidation rights, redemption rights and conversion
rights, senior to, junior to or pari passu with the rights of the Common Stock,
the Preferred Stock, or any future class or series of Preferred Stock or Common
Stock.

                                   ARTICLE V

         The Board of Directors of the corporation shall have the power to
adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the corporation.

                                   ARTICLE VI

         For the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs
of the corporation, and in further definition, limitation and regulation of the
powers of the corporation, of its directors and of its stockholders or any class
thereof, as the case may be, it is further provided that:

         (A)  The conduct of the affairs of the corporation shall be managed
under the direction of its Board of Directors. The number of directors shall be
fixed from time to time exclusively by resolution of the Board of Directors.

         (B)  Election of directors need not be by written ballot unless the
Bylaws of the corporation shall so provide.


                                  ARTICLE VII

         To the fullest extent permitted by law, no director of the corporation
shall be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as
a director.  Without limiting the effect of the preceding sentence, if the
Delaware General Corporation Law is hereafter amended to authorize the further
elimination or limitation of the liability of a director, then the liability of
a director of the corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest
extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as so amended.

         Neither any amendment nor repeal of this Article VII, nor the adoption
of any provision of this Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this
Article VII, shall eliminate, reduce or otherwise adversely affect any
limitation on the personal liability of a director of the corporation existing
at the time of such amendment, repeal or adoption of such an inconsistent
provision.

                           (a Delaware corporation)

                          As Adopted _________, 1999


                                   ARTICLE I

                                 STOCKHOLDERS

     Section 1.1:  Annual Meetings.  An annual meeting of stockholders shall be
     -----------   ---------------
held for the election of directors at such date, time and place, either within
or without the State of Delaware, as the Board of Directors shall each year fix.
Any other proper business may be transacted at the annual meeting.

     Section 1.2:  Special Meetings.  Special meetings of stockholders for any
     -----------   ----------------
purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board, the
Chief Executive Officer, the holders of shares of the Corporation that are
entitled to cast not less than a ten percent (10%) of the total number of votes
entitled to be cast by all stockholders at such meeting (the "Ten Percent
                                                              -----------
Stockholders"), or by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors.
- ------------
Special meetings may not be called by any other person or persons.  If a special
meeting of stockholders is called by any person or persons other than by a
majority of the members of the Board of Directors, then such person or persons
shall call such meeting by delivering a written request to call such meeting to
each member of the Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors shall then
determine the time, date and place of such special meeting, which shall be held
not more than one hundred twenty (120) nor less than thirty-five (35) days after
the written request to call such special meeting was delivered to each member of
the Board of Directors.  Following the closing of the corporation's initial
public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer and sale of Common Stock
to the public (the "Initial Public Offering"), Ten Percent Stockholders may not
                    -----------------------
call a Special Meeting of Stockholders.

     Section 1.3:  Notice of Meetings.  Written notice of all meetings of
     -----------   ------------------
stockholders shall be given stating the place, date and time of the meeting and,
in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting
is called.  Unless otherwise required by applicable law or the Certificate of
Incorporation of the Corporation, such notice shall be given not less than ten
(10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each
stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting.

     Section 1.4:  Adjournments.  Any meeting of stockholders may adjourn from
     -----------   ------------
time to time to reconvene at the same or another place, and notice need not be
given of any such
<PAGE>

adjourned meeting if the time, date and place thereof are announced at the
meeting at which the adjournment is taken; provided, however, that if the
                                           --------  -------
adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment, a
new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, then a notice of the
adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote
at the meeting. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any
business that might have been transacted at the original meeting.

     Section 1.5:  Quorum.  At each meeting of stockholders, the holders of a
     -----------   ------
majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote at the meeting, present in
person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business, except if otherwise required by applicable law.  If a quorum shall
          ------
fail to attend any meeting, the chairman of the meeting or the holders of a
majority of the shares entitled to vote who are present, in person or by proxy,
at the meeting may adjourn the meeting.  Shares of the Corporation's stock
belonging to the Corporation (or to another corporation, if a majority of the
shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation
are held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation), shall neither be entitled
to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the
                                            --------  -------
foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation or any other corporation
to vote any shares of the Corporation's stock held by it in a fiduciary
capacity.

     Section 1.6:  Organization.  Meetings of stockholders shall be presided
     -----------   ------------
over by such person as the Board of Directors may designate, or, in the absence
of such a person, the Chairman of the Board, or, in the absence of such person,
the President of the Corporation, or, in the absence of such person, such person
as may be chosen by the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote who
are present, in person or by proxy, at the meeting. Such person shall be
chairman of the meeting and, subject to Section 1.12 hereof, shall determine the
order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of
the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seems to him or her to be
in order. The Secretary of the Corporation shall act as secretary of the
meeting, but in his or her absence, the chairman of the meeting may appoint any
person to act as secretary of the meeting.

     Section 1.7:  Voting; Proxies.  Unless otherwise provided by law or the
     -----------   ---------------
Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, and subject to the provisions
of Section 1.8 of these Bylaws, each stockholder shall be entitled to one (1)
vote for each share of stock held by such stockholder. Each stockholder entitled
to vote at a meeting of stockholders, or to express consent or dissent to
corporate action in writing without a meeting, may authorize another person or
persons to act for such stockholder by proxy. Such a proxy may be prepared,
transmitted and delivered in any manner permitted by applicable law. Voting at
meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot unless such is demanded
at the meeting before voting begins by a stockholder or stockholders holding
shares representing at least one percent (1%) of the votes entitled to vote at
such meeting, or by such stockholder's or stockholders' proxy; provided,
                                                               --------
however, that an election of directors shall be by written ballot if demand is
- -------
so made by any stockholder at the meeting before voting begins.  If a vote is to
be taken by written ballot, then each such ballot shall state the name of the
stockholder or proxy voting and such other information as the chairman of the
meeting deems appropriate.  Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the
votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

entitled to vote on the election of directors.  Unless otherwise provided by
applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation or these
Bylaws, every matter other than the election of directors shall be decided by
the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock
entitled to vote thereon that are present in person or represented by proxy at
the meeting and are voted for or against the matter.

     (a)  Generally.  In order that the Corporation may determine the
          ---------
stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or
any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to corporate action in writing
without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other
distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in
respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any
other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date,
which shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record
date is adopted by the Board of Directors and which shall not be more than sixty
(60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor more than
sixty (60) days prior to any other action.  If no record date is fixed by the
Board of Directors, then the record date shall be as provided by applicable law.
A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a
meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided,
                                                                       --------
however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned
- -------
meeting.

     (b)  Stockholder Request for Action by Written Consent.  For such period of
          -------------------------------------------------
time as stockholders are authorized to act by written consent pursuant to the
provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation and Section
1.10 hereof, any stockholder of record seeking to have the stockholders
authorize or take corporate action by written consent without a meeting shall,
by written notice to the Secretary of the Corporation, request the Board of
Directors to fix a record date for such consent. Such request shall include a
brief description of the action proposed to be taken. The Board of Directors
shall, within ten (10) days after the date on which such a request is received,
adopt a resolution fixing the record date. Such record date shall not precede
the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the
Board of Directors, and shall not be more than ten (10) days after the date upon
which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of
Directors. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors within ten
(10) days after the date on which such a request is received, then the record
date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in
writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is
required by applicable law, shall be the first date on which a signed written
consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to
the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware,
to its principal place of business or to any officer or agent of the Corporation
having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are
recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation's registered office shall be by hand
or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date
has been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of
Directors is required by applicable law, then the record date for determining
stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a
meeting

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

shall be at the close of business on the date on which the Board of Directors
adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

     Section 1.9:  List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote.  A complete list of
     -----------   -------------------------------------
stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders, arranged in
alphabetical order and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of
shares registered in the name of each stockholder, shall be open to the
examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during
ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the
meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held,
which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so
specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held.  The list shall also be
produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time
thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present at the meeting.

     Section 1.10:  Action by Written Consent of Stockholders.
     ------------   -----------------------------------------

     (a)  Procedure.  Unless otherwise provided by the Certificate of
          ---------
Incorporation of the Corporation, and except as set forth in Section 1.8(b)
above, any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special
meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice
and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the
action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not
less than the number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such
action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present
and voted; provided, however, that effective immediately after the closing of an
           --------  -------
underwritten public offering of shares of the Corporation's Common Stock
pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, any action required or permitted to be taken
by the Corporation's stockholders shall be taken only at a duly called annual or
special meeting of such stockholders, and the Corporation's stockholders shall
not be able to act by written consent.  For such period of time as written
stockholder consents are permitted, such consents shall bear the date of
signature of each stockholder who signs the consent and shall be delivered to
the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware,
to its principal place of business or to any officer or agent of the Corporation
having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are
recorded.  Delivery made to the Corporation's registered office shall be by hand
or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.  No written
consent shall be effective to take the action set forth therein unless, within
sixty (60) days of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Corporation in
the manner provided above, written consents signed by a sufficient number of
stockholders to take the action set forth therein are delivered to the
Corporation in the manner provided above.

     (b)  Notice of Consent.  Prompt notice of the taking of corporate action by
          -----------------
stockholders without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent of the
stockholders shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented thereto
in writing and, in the case of a Certificate Action (as defined below), if the
Delaware General Corporation Law so requires, such notice shall be given prior
to filing of the certificate in question.  If the action which is consented to
requires the filing of a certificate under the Delaware General Corporation Law
(a "Certificate Action"), then if the Delaware General Corporation Law so
    ------------------
requires, the

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

certificate so filed shall state that written stockholder consent has been given
in accordance with Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and that
written notice of the taking of corporate action by stockholders without a
meeting as described herein has been given as provided in such section.

               Section 1.11:  Inspectors of Elections.
               ------------   -----------------------

     (a)  Applicability.  Unless otherwise provided in the Corporation's
          -------------

the Corporation has a class of voting stock that is:  (i) listed on a national
securities exchange; (ii) authorized for quotation on an interdealer quotation
system of a registered national securities association; or (iii) held of record
by more than 2,000 stockholders; in all other cases, observance of the
provisions of this Section 1.11 shall be optional and at the discretion of the
Corporation.

     (b)  Appointment.  The Corporation shall, in advance of any meeting of
          -----------
stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors of election to act at the meeting
and make a written report thereof.  The Corporation may designate one or more
persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act.  If
no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the
person presiding at the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at
the meeting.

     (c)  Inspector's Oath.  Each inspector of election, before entering
          ----------------
upon the discharge of his duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to
execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the
best of his or her ability.

     (d)  Duties of Inspectors.  At a meeting of stockholders, the
          --------------------
inspectors of election shall (i) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and
the voting power of each share, (ii) determine the shares represented at a
meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (iii) count all votes and
ballots, (iv) determine and retain for a reasonable period of time a record of
the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors
and (v) certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the
meeting and their count of all votes and ballots.  The inspectors may appoint or
retain other persons or entities to assist the inspectors in the performance of
the duties of the inspectors.

     (e)  Opening and Closing of Polls.  The date and time of the opening
          ----------------------------
and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will
vote at a meeting shall be announced by the inspectors at the meeting.  No
ballot, proxies or votes, nor any revocations thereof or changes thereto, shall
be accepted by the inspectors after the closing of the polls unless the Court of
Chancery upon application by a stockholder shall determine otherwise.

     (f)  Determinations.  In determining the validity and counting of
          --------------
proxies and ballots, the inspectors shall be limited to an examination of the
proxies, any envelopes submitted with those proxies, any information provided in
connection with proxies in accordance with Section 212(c)(2) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, the ballots and the regular books and

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

records of the Corporation, except that the inspectors may consider other
                            ------
reliable information for the limited purpose of reconciling proxies and ballots
submitted by or on behalf of banks, brokers, their nominees or similar persons
that represent more votes than the holder of a proxy is authorized by the record
owner to cast or more votes than the stockholder holds of record. If the
inspectors consider other reliable information for the limited purpose permitted
herein, the inspectors at the time they make their certification of their
determinations pursuant to this Section 1.11 shall specify the precise
information considered by them, including the person or persons from whom they
obtained the information, when the information was obtained, the means by which
the information was obtained and the basis for the inspectors' belief that such
information is accurate and reliable.

stockholder's notice must be delivered to the Secretary at the principal
executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the
sixtieth (60th) day nor earlier than the close of business on the ninetieth
(90th) day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual
meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual
         --------  -------
meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than sixty (60) days after
such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder, to be timely, must be so
delivered not earlier than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day
prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the
later of the sixtieth (60th) day prior to such annual meeting or the close of
business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement
of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation.  Such
stockholder's notice shall set forth: (a) as to each person whom the stockholder

preceding year's annual meeting (or, if the annual meeting is held more than
thirty (30) days before or sixty (60) days after such anniversary date, at least
seventy (70) days prior to such annual meeting), a stockholder's notice required
by this Section 1.12 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to
nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be
delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive office
of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day
following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the
Corporation.

     (b)  Special Meetings of Stockholders.  Only such business shall be
          --------------------------------
conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before
the meeting pursuant to the Corporation's notice of such meeting.  Nominations
of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a special
meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the
Corporation's notice of such meeting (i) by or at the direction of the Board of
Directors or (ii) provided that the Board of Directors has determined that
directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the
Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice of
the special meeting, who shall be entitled to vote at the meeting and who
complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.12.  In the
event the Corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of
electing one or more directors to the Board of Directors, any such stockholder
may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be), for election to such
position(s) as specified in the Corporation's notice of meeting, if the
stockholder's notice required by subparagraph (a)(ii) of this Section 1.12 shall
be delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive
offices of the Corporation not earlier than the ninetieth (90th) day prior to
such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of

          (i)  Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the
procedures set forth in this Section 1.12 shall be eligible to serve as
directors and only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting
was made or proposed, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures set
forth in this Section 1.12 and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in
compliance herewith, to declare that such defective proposal or nomination shall
be disregarded.

          (ii)   For purposes of this Section 1.12, the term "public
                                                              ------

- ------------
Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a

                                  ARTICLE II

                              BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     Section 2.1:  Number; Qualifications.  The Board of Directors shall consist
     -----------   ----------------------
of one or more members.  The initial number of directors shall be six (6), and
thereafter shall be fixed from time to time by resolution of the Board of
Directors. No decrease in the authorized number of directors constituting the
Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. Directors
need not be stockholders of the Corporation.

     Section 2.2:  Election; Resignation; Removal; Vacancies.  Effective
     -----------   -----------------------------------------
immediately on such date, if ever, that the Corporation becomes a listed
corporation within the meaning of Section 301.5 of the California Corporations
Code, the directors shall be divided, with respect to the time for which they
severally hold office, into three classes designated as Class I, Class II and
Class III, respectively.  Directors shall be assigned to each class in
accordance with a resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors,
with the number of directors in each class to be divided as equally as
reasonably possible.  The term of office of the Class I directors shall expire
at the corporation's first annual meeting of stockholders following the closing
of the Initial Public Offering, the term of office of the Class II directors
shall expire at the corporation's second annual meeting of stockholders
following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, and the term of office of
the Class III directors shall expire at the corporation's third annual meeting
of stockholders following the closing of the Initial Public Offering.  At each
annual meeting of stockholders commencing with the first annual meeting of
stockholders following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, directors
elected to succeed those directors of the class whose terms then expire shall be
elected for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting of
stockholders after their election.  Prior to the closing of the Initial Public
Offering, each director shall hold office until the next annual meeting of
stockholders and until such director's successor is elected and qualified, or
until such director's

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

earlier death, resignation or removal.  Any director may resign at any time upon
written notice to the Corporation. Subject to the rights of the holders of any
series of Preferred Stock, any vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors for
any cause, and any newly created directorship resulting from any increase in the
authorized number of directors, shall, unless (i) the Board of Directors
determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships
shall be filled by the stockholders, or (ii) as otherwise provided by law, be
filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in
office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and not by
the stockholders. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in any election of
directors, the stockholders of the corporation shall have the rights set forth
in subdivisions (a), (b) and (c) of Section 708 of the California Corporations
Code; provided, however, that the rights set forth in this sentence shall
      --------  -------
terminate to the extent permitted by applicable law immediately on such date, if
ever, that the Corporation becomes a listed corporation within the meaning of
Section 301.5 of the California Corporations Code. Any director elected in
accordance with the two preceding sentences shall hold office for the remainder
of the full term of the director for which the vacancy was created or occurred.
Subject to the rights of any holders of Preferred Stock, any director or the
entire Board of Directors may be removed, with or without cause, by the holders
of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors;
provided, however, that a director may not be removed without cause if the votes
- --------  -------
cast against removal of the director, or not consenting in writing to the
removal, would be sufficient to elect the director if voted cumulatively
(without regard to whether shares may otherwise be voted cumulatively) at an
election at which the same total number of votes were cast (or, if the action is
taken by written consent, all shares entitled to vote were voted) and either the
number of directors elected at the most recent annual meeting of stockholders,
or if greater, the number of directors for whom removal is being sought, were
then being elected.

     Section 2.3:  Regular Meetings.  Regular meetings of the Board of
     -----------   ----------------
Directors may be held at such places, within or without the State of Delaware,

person or persons calling the meeting shall fix.  Notice of the time, date and
place of such meeting shall be given, orally or in writing, by the person or
persons calling the meeting to all directors at least four (4) days before the
meeting if the notice is mailed, or at least twenty-four (24) hours before the

committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board of
Directors or such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing and
the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board
or committee, respectively.

     Section 2.9:  Powers.  The Board of Directors may, except as otherwise

such committee who are not disqualified from voting, whether or not he, she or
they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of
Directors to act at the meeting in place of any such absent or disqualified

entitled to be indemnified under this Article VI or otherwise; and provided,

of any provision of this Article VI shall be prospective only, and shall not
adversely affect any right or protection conferred on a person pursuant to this

the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or
convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any
regular or special meeting of the stockholders, directors or members of a
committee of directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice.

votes are counted for such purpose, if: (i) the material facts as to his, her or
their relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are

of Directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction

the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the

or paid in any prior year whether or not the earnings of the Corporation in that
prior year were sufficient to pay such dividends in whole or in part. The
Preferred Stock shall participate on any distribution of dividends on the Common
Stock (based on the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of
Preferred Stock is convertible on the date the dividend is declared). In the
event that the Corporation shall have declared but unpaid dividends outstanding
immediately prior to, and in the event of, a conversion of Preferred Stock (as
provided in Section 6 hereof), the Corporation shall, at the option of the
holder, pay in cash to the holder(s) of Preferred Stock subject to conversion

into Common Stock in accordance with, and pursuant to the terms specified in,
Section 6 hereof.

to the address of each holder (or, in the case of joint holders, to the address
of any such holder) of Series E Preferred, Series D Preferred, Series C
Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series A Preferred as shown on the books of
the Corporation, or to such other address as such holder specifies for such
purpose by written notice to the Corporation.  The forwarding of such check
shall satisfy all obligations of the Corporation with respect to such dividends,
unless such check is not paid upon timely presentation.

or involuntary, distributions to the shareholders of the Corporation shall be
made in the following manner.

         3.1  The holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive,

 -----------------------------
by them, adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, subdivisions, or stock
splits with respect to such shares and, in addition, all accrued but unpaid
dividends on such shares of Series A Preferred (the "Series A Preference"), (ii)
                                                     -------------------
$1.2862 (the "Original Series B Issue Price") for each share of Series B

in addition, all accrued but unpaid dividends on such shares of Series C
Preferred (the "Series C Preference"), (iv) $1.87105 (the "Original Series D
                -------------------
Issue Price") for each share of Series D Preferred then held by them, adjusted
for any combinations, consolidations, subdivisions, or stock splits with respect
to such shares and, in addition, all accrued but unpaid dividends on such shares
of Series D Preferred (the "Series D Preference") and (v) $5.66 (the "Original

Preferred, Series C Preferred, Series D Preferred and Series E Preferred shall
rank on a pari passu basis as to the receipt of the respective preferential
amounts for each such series upon the occurrence of such event. If the assets
and funds thus distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred, Series B
Preferred, Series C Preferred, Series D Preferred and Series E Preferred shall
be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full aforesaid
Series A Preference, Series B Preference, Series C Preference, Series D
Preference and Series E Preference, then the entire assets and funds of the
Corporation legally available for distribution shall be distributed among the
holders of the Series A Preferred, Series B Preferred, Series C Preferred,
Series D Preferred and Series E Preferred in proportion to the total
preferential amount owed to each holder under this Section 3.1.

          3.2  After payment of the Series A Preference, Series B Preference,
Series C Preference, Series D Preference and Series E Preference has been made
to the holders of the Series A Preferred, Series B Preferred, Series C
Preferred, Series D Preferred and Series E Preferred of the full amounts to
which they are entitled pursuant to Section 3.1 above, the remaining assets and
funds of the Corporation available for distribution shall be distributed ratably
among all holders of Series B Preferred, Series C Preferred, Series D Preferred
and Series E Preferred and holders of Common Stock based on the number of shares
of Common Stock held by each such holder (assuming conversion of all Series B
Preferred, Series C Preferred, Series D Preferred and Series E Preferred).
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the right to receive the remaining
assets so described shall cease (i) as to the holders of Series B Preferred at
such time as the holders of Series B Preferred have received an aggregate of
$2.5724 per share of Series B Preferred held by them (including amounts
previously paid as the Series B Preference), (ii) as to the holders of Series C
Preferred at such time as the holders of Series C Preferred have received an
aggregate of $2.158152 per share of Series C Preferred held by them (including
amounts previously paid as the Series C Preference), (iii) as to the holders of
Series D Preferred at such time as the holders of Series D Preferred have
received an aggregate of $2.806575 per share of Series D Preferred held by them
(including amounts previously paid as the Series D Preference) and (iv) as to
the holders of Series E Preferred at such time as the holders of Series E
Preferred have received an aggregate of $8.49 per share of Series E Preferred
held by them (including amounts previously paid as the Series E Preference).
Thereafter, the remaining assets and funds of the Corporation available for
distribution shall be distributed ratably among all holders of Common Stock
(including shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock is converted
prior to the commencement of the Liquidation Event distribution described in
this Section 3).

          3.3  Notwithstanding the foregoing Sections 3.1 and 3.2, the entire
liquidation amount payable with respect to a share of Series B Preferred, a
share of Series C Preferred, a share of Series D Preferred and a share of Series
E Preferred upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall, in each
instance, be equal to the greater of (i) the amount that would be distributable
under Sections 3.1 and 3.2 with respect to such share, and (ii) the amount that
would be distributable under Sections 3.1 and 3.2 in respect of the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such share, assuming that such share
were converted into Common Stock pursuant to Section 6.1 immediately prior to
such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

          3.4  For purposes of this Section 3, any transaction or series of
transactions, including without limitation a merger, consolidation, or other
corporate reorganization of the Corporation with or into any other corporation
or corporations in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting
power of this Corporation is disposed of, or a sale of all or substantially all
of the assets of the Corporation, shall be treated as a Liquidation Event,
irrespective of the form of payment made in such transaction or series of
transactions.

          3.5  Each holder of Preferred Stock shall, by virtue of its acceptance
of a stock certificate evidencing Preferred Stock, be deemed to have consented
to distributions made by this Corporation in connection with the repurchase by
this Corporation of its Common Stock pursuant to its agreements with certain of
the holders thereof.

          3.5  The value of securities and property paid or distributed pursuant
to this Section 3 shall be computed at fair market value at the time of payment
as determined by the Board of Directors in the good faith exercise of its
reasonable business judgment, provided that (i) if such securities are listed on
any established stock exchange or a national market system, their fair market
value shall be the mean between the high and low prices for such securities as
quoted on such system or exchange (or the largest such exchange) for the 5
trading days immediately preceding and including the date the value is to be
determined (or if there are no sales for such date, then for the 5 trading days
immediately preceding such date), as reported in the Wall Street Journal or
                                                     -------------------
similar publication, (ii) if such securities are regularly quoted by a
recognized securities dealer but selling prices are not reported, their fair
market value shall  be the mean between the high bid and low asked prices for
such securities on the 5 business days immediately preceding and including the
date the value is to be determined (or if there are no quoted prices for such
dates, then for the 5 last preceding business days on which there were quotes
prices), and (iii) if a majority of the directors elected by the holders of
Series B Preferred and Series C Preferred pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof (the
                                                                          ---
"Preferred Directors") does not approve the Board of Directors' valuation of
- --------------------
securities and property paid or distributed, the Corporation shall promptly
engage competent independent appraisers from a nationally recognized accounting
firm reasonably acceptable to the Preferred Directors (and with no prior
business relationship with the Corporation), or such other appraisers which are
agreed to by the Board of Directors and the Preferred Directors, to determine
the value of such securities and property paid or distributed, which
determination shall be final and binding; and provided, further, that if the
                                              --------  -------
securities described in (i) or (ii) are subject to restrictions on transfer, the
Board of Directors shall apply an appropriate discount in determining the value
thereof.

          3.6  Nothing hereinabove set forth shall affect in any way the right
of each holder of Preferred Stock to convert such shares into Common Stock in
accordance with Section 6 hereof at any time prior to the commencement of the
distribution of assets and funds described above.

event that the Corporation is unable to redeem the full number of shares of

last shown on the records of the Corporation for such holder, stating such
Redemption Date, the Series A Redemption Price, the Series B Redemption Price,
the Series C Redemption Price, the Series D Redemption Price and the Series E
Redemption Price, as applicable, the then current conversion rate (as provided
in Section 6.1)) for such shares, and the date of termination of the right to
convert (which date shall not be earlier than (30) days after the written notice
by the Corporation has been given) and shall call upon such holder to surrender
to the Corporation on such Redemption Date at the place designated in the
notice, such holder's certificate or certificates representing the shares to be
redeemed.  On or after the Redemption Date stated in such notice, the holder of
each share of Preferred Stock called for redemption shall surrender the
certificate evidencing such shares to the Corporation at the place designated in
such notice and shall thereupon be entitled to receive payment of the Series A
Redemption Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D
Redemption Price or Series E Redemption Price, as the case may be, for the
shares surrendered.  If less than all the shares represented by any such
surrendered certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued
representing the unredeemed shares.  If such notice of redemption shall have
been duly given, and if on such Redemption Date funds necessary for the
redemption shall be available therefor, then, as to any certificates evidencing
any Preferred Stock so called for redemption and not surrendered, all rights of
the holders of such shares so called for

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

only the right of the holders to receive the Series A Redemption Price, Series B
Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price and
Series E Redemption Price for the Preferred Stock which they hold, without
interest, upon surrender of their certificates therefor.

          4.8  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, on or prior
to a Redemption Date (and after a redemption election has been made pursuant to
this Section 4), the Corporation deposits, with any bank or trust company in the
State of California having aggregate capital and surplus in excess of
$100,000,000, as a trust fund, a sum sufficient to redeem on such Redemption
Date the shares called for redemption, with irrevocable instructions and
authority to the bank or trust company to give the notice of redemption thereof
(or to complete the giving of such notice if theretofore commenced) and to pay,
on or after the Redemption Date or prior thereto, the Series A Redemption Price,
Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price
and Series E Redemption Price of the shares to their respective holders upon the
surrender of their share certificates, then from and after the date of the
deposit (although prior to such Redemption Date), the shares so called for
redemption on such Redemption Date (but not any subsequent Redemption Date)
shall be redeemed.  The deposit of such sum shall constitute full payment of
such shares to their holders and from and after the date of the deposit such
shares shall no longer be outstanding, and the holders thereof shall cease to be
stockholders with respect to such shares, and shall have no rights with respect
thereto except the right to receive from the bank or trust company payment of
the Series A Redemption Price, the Series B Redemption Price, the Series C
Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price and Series E Redemption Price for
the Preferred Stock called for redemption on such Redemption Date without
interest, upon the surrender of their certificates therefor and the right to
convert said shares as provided herein at any time up to but not after the close
of business on the fifth day prior to the Redemption Date of such shares (which
conversion date will not be earlier than thirty (30) days after the written
notice of redemption has been given).  Any monies so deposited on account of the
Series A Redemption Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price,
Series D Redemption Price and Series E Redemption Price of the Preferred Stock
converted into Common Stock subsequent to the making of such deposit shall be
repaid to the Corporation forthwith upon the conversion of such Preferred Stock.
Any interest accrued on any funds so deposited shall be the property of, and
paid to, the Corporation.  If the holders of Preferred Stock so called for
redemption shall not, at the end of two (2) years after the applicable
Redemption Date, have claimed any funds so deposited, such bank or trust company
shall thereupon pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed funds, and such bank
or trust company shall thereafter be relieved of all responsibility in respect
thereof to such holders and such holders shall look only to the Corporation for
payment of the Series A Redemption Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C
Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price and Series E Redemption Price for
the Preferred Stock which they hold.

     5.  Voting Rights.
         -------------

          5.1  Except as otherwise required by law or hereunder, the holder of
each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding shall have one vote and the

record date for determination of the shareholders entitled to vote on such
matters, or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is
taken or any written consent of shareholders is solicited, such votes to be
counted together with all other shares of stock of the Corporation having
general voting power and not separately as a class. Fractional votes by the
holders of Preferred Stock shall not, however, be permitted and any fractional
voting rights shall (after aggregating all shares into which shares of Preferred
Stock held by each holder could be converted) be rounded to the nearest whole
number (with one half being rounded upward). Holders of Common Stock and
Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of any shareholders' meeting in
connection with the Bylaws of the Corporation.

          5.2  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a), at each annual
or special meeting called for the purpose of electing directors, (i) the holders
of the Series B Preferred, voting as a separate class, shall be entitled to
elect one (1) member of the Board of Directors for so long as at least 1,000,000
originally issued shares of Series B Preferred remain outstanding (as adjusted
for stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with
respect to such shares) and (ii) the holders of the Series C Preferred, Series D
Preferred and Series E Preferred, voting together as a single class, shall be
entitled to elect one (1) member of the Board of Directors for so long as at
least 1,000,000 originally issued shares of Series C Preferred, Series D
Preferred and/or Series E Preferred remain outstanding (as adjusted for stock
dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to
such shares), (iii) the holders of Common Stock, voting as a separate class,
shall be entitled to elect two (2) members of the Board of Directors, and (iv)
the holders of Preferred Stock and Common Stock, voting together as a single
class and on an as-converted basis, shall be entitled to elect the remaining
directors.  In the case of any vacancy in the office of a director elected
pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) of the preceding sentence, a successor
shall be elected to hold office for the unexpired term of such director by the
affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of such specified group given at a
special meeting of such shareholders duly called (or by a written consent in
lieu thereof) for that purpose.  Subject to Section 141(k) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, any director who shall have been elected by a specified
group of shareholders may be removed during the aforesaid term of office, either
for or without cause, by, and only by, the holders of a majority of the shares
of such specified group, given at the a special meeting of such stockholders
duly called (or by a written consent in lieu thereof) for that purpose, and such
vacancy thereby created may be filled by the vote of the holders of a majority
of shares of such specified group represented at such meeting (or in such
consent).

     6.  Conversion.  The holders of Preferred Stock shall have conversion
         ----------
rights as follows (the "Conversion Rights"):

          6.1  Right to Convert.  Each share of Preferred Stock shall be
               ----------------
convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the date of
issuance of such share at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent
for such Preferred Stock.  Each share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible
into such number of fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as (i)
in the case of the Series A Preferred is determined by dividing the Original
Series A Issue Price by the Series A Preferred Conversion Price (the "Series A
                                                                      --------
Conversion Price"), determined
- ----------------
                                      -10-
<PAGE>

as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of conversion, (ii) in the case
of the Series B Preferred is determined by dividing the Original Series B Issue
Price by the Series B Preferred Conversion Price (the "Series B Conversion
                                                       -------------------
Price"), determined as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of
- -----
conversion, (iii) in the case of the Series C Preferred is determined by
dividing the Original Series C Issue Price by the Series C Preferred Conversion
Price (the "Series C Conversion Price"), determined as hereinafter provided, in
            -------------------------
effect at the time of conversion, (iv) in the case of the Series D Preferred is
determined by dividing the Original Series D Issue Price by the Series D
Preferred Conversion Price (the "Series D Conversion Price"), determined as
                                 -------------------------
hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of conversion and (v) in the case of
the Series E Preferred is determined by dividing the Original Series E Issue
Price by the Series E Preferred Conversion Price (the "Series E Conversion
                                                       -------------------
Price"), determined as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of
- -----
conversion. The initial Series A Preferred Conversion Price shall be $0.20 per
share, the initial Series B Conversion Price shall be $1.2862 per share, the
initial Series C Conversion Price shall be $1.079076 per share, the initial
Series D Conversion Price shall be $1.87105 per share, and the initial Series E
Conversion Price shall be $5.66 per share. Each of these Conversion Prices shall
be subject to adjustment as provided in accordance with Section 6.4.

          6.2  Automatic Conversion.  Each share of Series A Preferred, Series B
               --------------------
Preferred, Series C Preferred, Series D Preferred and Series E Preferred shall
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the then effective
Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock upon the closing of a firm
commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer and
sale of Common Stock for the account of the Corporation to the public with
aggregate proceeds to the Company in excess of Twenty Million Dollars
($20,000,000) (before deduction for underwriters commissions and expenses) and a
per share price not less than $8.49 per share (appropriately adjusted for any
stock combination, stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or other
similar transaction) (an "Automatic Conversion").  In the event of an Automatic
Conversion of the Preferred Stock upon a public offering as aforesaid, the
person(s) entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of
Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such Preferred Stock until
immediately prior to the closing of such sale of securities.

          6.3  Mechanics of Conversion.  No fractional shares of Common Stock
               -----------------------
shall be issued upon conversion of Preferred Stock.  All shares of Common Stock
(including fractions thereof) issuable upon conversion of more than one share of
Preferred Stock by a holder thereof shall be aggregated for purposes of
determining whether the conversion would result in the issuance of any
fractional share.  If, after the aforementioned aggregation, the conversion
would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the
Corporation shall, in lieu of issuing any fractional shares to which the holder
would otherwise be entitled, pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the
then effective Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock.  Before any
holder of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into full shares
of Common Stock and to receive certificates therefor, such holder shall
surrender the certificate or certificate therefor, duly endorsed, at the office
of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Preferred Stock, and shall
given written notice to the Corporation at such office that he or she

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

elects to convert the same; provided, however, that in the event of an Automatic
Conversion pursuant to Section 6.2, the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock
shall be converted automatically without any further action by the holders of
such shares and whether or not the certificates representing such shares are
surrendered to the Corporation or its transfer agent, and provided further that
the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Automatic Conversions unless the
certificates evidencing such shares of Preferred Stock are either delivered to
the Corporation or its transfer agents as provided above, or the holder notifies
the Corporation or its transfer agent that such certificates have been lost,
stolen, or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Corporation
to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with
such certificates. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after such
delivery, or such agreement and indemnification in the case of a lost
certificate, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Preferred Stock,
a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which
such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid and check payable to the holder in
the amount of any cash amounts payable as the result of a conversion into
fractional shares of Common Stock. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been
made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of
the shares of Preferred Stock to be converted, and the person or persons
entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion
shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares
of Common Stock on such date.

          6.4  Adjustments to Conversion Price.
               -------------------------------

               (i)   Adjustments for Dividends, Splits, Subdivisions,
                     -----------------------------------------------
 Combinations, or Consolidation of Common Stock. In the event the outstanding
 ----------------------------------------------
 shares of Common Stock shall be increased by stock dividend payable in Common
 Stock, stock split, subdivision, or other similar transaction occurring after
 the filing of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation into a
 greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect
 for each series of Preferred Stock shall, concurrently with the effectiveness
 of such event, be decreased in proportion to the percentage increase in the
 outstanding number of shares of Common Stock. In the event the outstanding
 shares of Common Stock shall be decreased by reverse stock split, combination,
 consolidation, or other similar transaction occurring after the filing of this
 Certificate of Designation into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the
 Conversion Price then in effect for each series of Preferred Stock shall,
 concurrently with the effectiveness of such event, be increased in proportion
 to the percentage decrease in the outstanding number of shares of Common Stock.

               (ii)  Adjustments for Other Distributions.  In the event the
                     -----------------------------------
Corporation at any time or from time to time makes, or fixes a record date for
the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, any
distribution payable in securities of the Corporation other than shares of
Common Stock and other than as otherwise adjusted in this Section 6, then and in
each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of Preferred Stock
shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of
Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Corporation
which they would have received had their Preferred Stock been converted into
Common Stock on the date of such event and had they thereafter,

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

during the period from the date of such event to and including the date of
conversion, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such
period, subject to all other adjustments called for during such period under
this Section 6 with respect to the rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock.

          (iii)  Adjustments for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution.
                 -----------------------------------------------------------
If the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock shall be
changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other class or
classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, or
otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares provided for
above), the Conversion Price then in effect for each series of Preferred Stock
shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such reorganization or
reclassification, be proportionately adjusted such that the Preferred Stock
shall be convertible into, in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock which
the holders would otherwise have been entitled to receive, a number of shares of
such other class or classes of stock equivalent to the number of shares of
Common Stock that would have been subject to receipt by the holders upon
conversion of such Preferred Stock immediately before that change.

          (iv)  Adjustments of Series B Conversion Price, Series C Conversion
                -------------------------------------------------------------
Price, Series D Conversion Price and Series E Conversion Price Upon Issuance of
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional Stock. If the Corporation shall issue "Additional Stock" (as defined
- ----------------
below) for a consideration per share less than the Series B Conversion Price,
the Series C Conversion Price, the Series D Conversion Price or the Series E
Conversion Price then in effect on the date and immediately prior to such issue,
then and in each such event, such Conversion Price shall be reduced concurrently
with such issue, to a price (calculated to three decimal places) determined by
multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction (1) the numerator of which shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such
issue (including all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
outstanding Preferred Stock and upon exercise of all outstanding options) plus
the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received
by the Corporation for the total number of Additional Stock so issued (or deemed
to be issued) would purchase at such Conversion Price; and (2) the denominator
of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such issue (including all shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the outstanding Preferred Stock and upon exercise of all
outstanding options) plus the number of shares of Additional Stock so issued.
For purposes of this subsection (iv) "Additional Stock" shall mean all Common
Stock issued by the Corporation after the Series B Original Issue Date other
than Common Stock issued or issuable at any time (1) upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock, (2) up to a total of 5,754,206 shares (net of repurchases and
option expirations or terminations) to officers, directors, and employees of,
and consultants to, the Corporation after the Series B Original Issue Date as
designated and approved by the Board of Directors, or such larger number of
shares as may hereafter be approved by the Board of Directors including the
affirmative vote of the member elected by the holders of Series B Preferred or
the member elected by the holders of Series C Preferred, Series D Preferred and
Series E Preferred; (3) in connection with equipment leasing or bank financing
transactions approved by the Corporation's Board of Directors; (4) as a dividend
or distribution with respect to the Preferred Stock; (5) upon the

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

issuance of shares of Series C Preferred Stock in excess of 5,560,314 shares; or
(6) as described in subparagraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 4.6

          For the purpose of making any adjustment in the Series B Conversion
Price, Series C Conversion Price, Series D Conversion Price or Series E
Conversion Price as provided above, the consideration received by the
Corporation for any issue or sale of Common Stock will be computed:

               (1)  to the extent it consists of cash, as the amount of cash
received by the Corporation before deduction of any offering expenses payable by
the Corporation and any underwriting or similar commissions, compensation, or
concessions paid or allowed by the Corporation in connection with such issue or
sale;

               (2)  to the extent it consists of property other than cash, at
the fair market value of that property as determined in good faith in the manner
in which the value of such property is determined in Section 3.5; and

               (3)  if Common Stock is issued or sold together with other stock
or securities or other assets of the Corporation for a consideration which
covers both, as the portion of the consideration so received that may be
reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors to be allocable to
such Common Stock.

          If the Corporation (1) grants any rights or options to subscribe for,
purchase, or otherwise acquire shares of Common Stock, or (2) issues or sells
any security convertible into shares of Common Stock, then, in each case, the
price per share of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of the rights or
options or the conversion of the securities will be determined by dividing the
total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration
for the granting of the rights or options or the issue or sale of the
convertible securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
consideration payable to the Corporation on exercise or conversion of the
securities, by the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the
exercise of conversion.  Such granting or issue or sale will be considered to be
an issue or sale for cash of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable on exercise or conversion at the price per share determined under this
subsection, and the Conversion Price for such Series B Preferred, Series C
Preferred, Series D Preferred or Series E Preferred will be adjusted as above
provided to reflect (on the basis of that determination) the issue or sale.  No
further adjustment of the Conversion Price for such Series B Preferred, Series C
Preferred, Series D Preferred or Series E Preferred will be made as a result of
the actual issuance of shares of Common Stock on the exercise of any such rights
or options or the conversion of any such convertible securities.

          Upon the redemption or repurchase of any such securities or the
expiration or termination of the right to convert into, exchange for, or
exercise with respect to, Common Stock, the Conversion Price for the Series B
Preferred, the Series C Preferred, the Series D Preferred and the Series E
Preferred, as applicable, will be readjusted to such price as would have been
obtained had the adjustment made upon their issuance been made upon the basis of
the issuance of only the number of such securities as were actually converted
into, exchanged for, or

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

exercised with respect to, Common Stock. If the purchase price or conversion or
exchange rate provided for in any such security changes at any time, then, upon
such change becoming effective, the Conversion Price for the Series B Preferred,
the Series C Preferred, the Series D Preferred or the Series E Preferred as
applicable, then in effect will be readjusted forthwith to such price as would
have been obtained had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such securities
been made upon the basis of (1) the issuance of only the number of shares of
Common Stock theretofore actually delivered upon the conversion, exchange or
exercise of such securities, and the total consideration received therefor, and
(2) the granting or issuance, at the time of such change, of any such securities
then still outstanding for the consideration, if any, received by the Company
therefor and to be received on the basis of such changed price or rate.

    6.5  No Impairment.  Except as provided in Section 7, the Corporation will
         -------------
not, by amendment of its Certificate of Designation or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or
sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the
observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed
hereunder by the Corporation but will at all times in good faith assist in the
carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 6 and in the taking of all
such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the
conversion rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock against impairment.

   6.6   Certificate as to Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment
         -----------------------------
or readjustment of the Conversion Price of each series of Preferred Stock
pursuant to this Section 6, the Corporation at its expense shall promptly
compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and
furnish to each holder of Preferred Stock a certificate setting forth such
adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustment or readjustment is based.  The Corporation shall, upon the written
request of any holder of Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to
such holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and
readjustments, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect, and (iii) the
number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which
at the time would be received upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock.

         (a)  Notices of Record Date. In the event that this Corporation shall
              ----------------------
propose at any time:

              (i)   to declare any dividend or distribution upon its Common
Stock, whether in cash, property, stock, or other securities, whether or not a
regular cash dividend and whether or not out of earnings or earned surplus;

              (ii)  to offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of any
class or series of its stock any additional shares of stock of any class or
series or other rights;

              (iii) to effect any reclassification or recapitalization of its
Common Stock outstanding involving a change in the Common Stock; or

              (iv)  to merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation,
or sell, lease, or convey all or substantially all its property or business, or
to liquidate, dissolve, or wind

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

up; then, in connection with each such event, this Corporation shall send to the
holders of the Preferred Stock:

                 (1)  at least 20 days' prior written notice of the date on
which a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription
rights (and specifying the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote in respect of the matters
referred to in (iii) and (iv) above; and

                 (2)  in the case of the matters referred to in (iii) and (iv)
above, at least 20 days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall
take place (and specifying the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall
be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property
deliverable upon the occurrence of such event or the record date for the
determination of such holders if such record date is earlier).

             Each such written notice shall be delivered personally or given by
first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of the Preferred
Stock at the address for each such holder as shown on the books of this
Corporation.

       (h)   Issue Taxes. The Corporation shall pay any and all issue and other
             -----------
taxes (other than income taxes) that may be payable in respect of any issue or
delivery of shares of Common Stock on conversion of shares of Preferred Stock
pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be obligated
to pay any transfer taxes resulting from any transfer requested by any holder in
connection with any such conversion.

       (i)   Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation
             ---------------------------------------------
shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of
the shares of the Preferred Stock such number of its shares of Common Stock as
shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all
outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, and if at any time the number of
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect
the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, the
Corporation will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its
counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common
Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose,
including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite
shareholder approval of any necessary amendment to its Articles of
Incorporation.

       (j)  Status of Converted Stock. No share of Preferred Stock acquired by
            -------------------------
the Corporation by reason of redemption, purchase, conversion or otherwise shall
be reissued and all such shares shall be cancelled, retired or eliminated from
the shares which the Corporation is authorized to issue.

    7. Covenants.

     3.   Right of First Refusal.
          ----------------------

          3.l  The Company hereby grants to each Major Investor the right of
first refusal to purchase up to its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities (as
defined below) which the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and
issue in a transaction or series of related transactions involving aggregate
proceeds to the Company of $1,000,000 or more.  The Major Investors may purchase
said New Securities on the same terms and at the same price at which the Company
proposes to sell the New Securities.  The "Pro Rata Share" of each Major
Investor, for purposes of this right of first refusal, is the ratio of (i) the
total number of shares of Common Stock held by such Major Investor (including
any shares of Common Stock into which shares of the Convertible Securities held
by such Major Investor are convertible) to (ii) the total number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of the New Securities
(including any shares of Common Stock into which outstanding shares of the
Convertible Securities are convertible and treating as outstanding the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock that can be issued under the Company's Stock
Option Plan).

          3.2  "New Securities" shall mean any capital stock of the Company,
whether authorized or not, and any rights, options, or warrants to purchase said
capital stock, and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become,
convertible into said capital stock; provided that "New Securities" does not
include (i) the Series E Preferred Stock issued pursuant to that certain Series
E Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement of even date herewith (the "Stock Purchase
Agreement"), or the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or such Series E Preferred Stock; (ii) securities offered
pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act; (iii)
securities issued by the Company pursuant to the acquisition of another
corporation by merger, purchase of substantially all of the assets, or other
reorganization; (iv) securities issued by the Company to a strategic corporate
partner pursuant to a strategic corporate partnership; provided such issuances
are for other than primarily equity financing purposes and provided that at the
time of any such issuance, the aggregate of such issuance and similar issuances
in the preceeding twelve month period do not exceed 1% of the then

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

outstanding Common Stock of the Company (assuming full conversion and exercise
of all convertible and exercisable securities); (v) shares issued or issuable to
employees, directors, consultants, advisers and others performing services for
the Company or its subsidiaries, pursuant to a plan or arrangement approved by
the Company's Board of Directors; (vi) shares issued without consideration
pursuant to a stock dividend, stock split, or similar transaction; (vii)
warrants, and shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants, issued in
connection with equipment leasing or credit transactions with commercial lending
institutions and approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and (viii)
Registrable Securities issued or issuable upon conversion, exercise, or exchange
of New Securities.

          3.3  In the event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New
Securities, it shall give to each Major Investor written notice (the "Notice")
of its intention, describing the type of New Securities, the price, the terms
upon which the Company proposes to issue the same, the number of shares which
Major Investor is entitled to purchase, and a statement that each Major Investor
shall have twenty (20) days to respond to such Notice.  Each Major Investor
shall have twenty (20) days from the date of receipt of the Notice to agree to
purchase any portion of or all of its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities for
the price and upon the terms specified in the Notice by giving written notice to
the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased
and forwarding payment for such New Securities to the Company if immediate
payment is required by such terms.

          3.4  In the event a Major Investor fails to exercise in full the right
of first refusal within said twenty (20) day period, the Company shall have
sixty (60) days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which
the sale of New Securities covered thereby shall be closed, if at all, within
thirty (30) days from date of said agreement) to sell the New Securities
respecting which such Major Investor's rights were not exercised, at a price and
upon general terms no more favorable to the purchaser thereof than specified in
the Notice.  In the event the Company has not sold the New Securities within
said sixty (60) day period (or sold and issued New Securities in accordance with
the foregoing within thirty (30) days from the date of said agreement), the
Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without first
offering such securities to such Major Investor in the manner provided above.

          3.5  The right of first refusal granted under this Section 3 is
assignable by the Major Investors and their affiliates to (i) any transferee of
a minimum of 100,000 shares of Common Stock (including any shares of Common
Stock into which shares of Convertible Securities then held by it are
convertible), (ii) any wholly owned subsidiary or parent of, or any corporation
or entity that is, within the meaning of the Securities Act, controlling,
controlled by or under common control with, any such Major Investor, or (iii)
any Major Investor.

          3.6  The covenants of the Company set forth in this Section 3 shall be
terminated and be of no further force or effect immediately prior to the closing
of the first public offering of the Common Stock of the Company that is effected
pursuant to a Registration Statement filed with, and declared effective by, the
Commission under the Securities Act (other than either a public offering limited
solely to employees of the Company or an offering pursuant to Rule 145 under the
Securities Act), and such covenants shall terminate as to any Major

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

Investor as of the date such Major Investor no longer holds any shares of the
capital stock of the Company.

     4.   Demand Registration.
          -------------------

          4.1  Request for Registration on Form Other Than Form S-3. Subject to
               ----------------------------------------------------
the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the Company shall receive from
the Initiating Holders at any time after the earlier of (a) May 9, 2001 and (b)
six (6) months after the closing of the Company's initial public offering of
shares of Common Stock under a Registration Statement, a written request that
the Company effect any Registration with respect to all or a part of the
Registrable Securities on a Form other than Form S-3 for an offering with a
reasonably anticipated aggregate offering price to the public exceeding
$5,000,000, the Company shall (i) promptly give written notice of the proposed
Registration to all other Holders and shall (ii) use its best efforts to effect
as soon as practicable, and in any event within sixty (60) days of the receipt
of such request, Registration of the Registrable Securities specified in such
request, together with any Registrable Securities of any Holder joining in such
request as are specified in a written request given within twenty (20) days
after written notice from the Company. The Company shall not be obligated to
take any action to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 4.1 (i)
for the one hundred eighty (180) day period immediately following the closing of
the Company's initial public offering of shares of Common Stock under a
Registration Statement, (ii) after the Company has effected two such
Registrations pursuant to this Section 4.1 and such Registrations have been
declared effective, or (iii) if the Company, within thirty (30) days of the
receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders, gives notice of its bona fide
intention to effect the filing of a Registration Statement with the Commission
within sixty (60) days of receipt of such request (other than with respect to a
Registration Statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction or an offering solely
to employees), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all
best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective. The
substantive provisions of Section 4.5 shall be applicable to each Registration
initiated under this Section 4.1.

          4.2  Right of Deferral of Registration on Form Other Than Form S-3. If
               -------------------------------------------------------------
the Company shall furnish to all such Holders who joined in the request a
certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that, in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously
detrimental to the Company for any Registration to be effected as requested
under Section 4.1, the Company shall have the right, exercisable not more than
once in any twelve-month period, to defer the filing of a Registration Statement
with respect to such offering for a period of not more than ninety (90) days
from delivery of the request of the Initiating Holders.

          4.3  Request for Registration on Form S-3.
               ------------------------------------

               (a) If one or more Initiating Holders requests that the Company
file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form to Form S-3)
for a public offering of shares of Registrable Securities the reasonably
anticipated aggregate price to the public of which would not be less than
$1,000,000, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 to register
the Registrable Securities for such an offering, the Company shall (i) promptly
give

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders, and (ii) as
soon as practicable effect such registration and all qualifications and
compliance as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and
distribution of all of such portion of such Holder's or Holders' Registrable
Securities as are specified in such request; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be required to effect more than one Registration pursuant to this
Section 4.3 in any six (6) month period. The substantive provisions of Section
4.5 shall be applicable to each Registration initiated under this Section 4.3.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated
to file a registration statement pursuant to this Section 4.3:

              (i)   in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be
required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such
registration, qualification, or compliance unless the Company is already subject
to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities
Act;

              (ii)  if the Company, within thirty (30) days of the receipt of
the request of the Initiating Holders, gives notice of its bona fide intention
to effect the filing of a Registration Statement with the Commission within
sixty (60) days of receipt of such request (other than with respect to a
Registration Statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction or an offering solely
to employees), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all
reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective
provided that the foregoing is limited to one time in any twelve (12) month
period;

              (iii) within one hundred eighty (180) days immediately following
the effective date of any Registration Statement pertaining to the securities of
the Company (other than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction
or with respect to an employee benefit plan); or

              (iv)  if the Company shall furnish to such Initiating Holders a
certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be seriously detrimental to
the Company or its shareholders for a Registration Statement to be filed in the
near future, then the Company's obligation to use its best efforts to file a
Registration Statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed 90 days from
the receipt of the request to file such registration by such Holder provided
that the Company shall not exercise the right contained in this paragraph (iv)
more than once in any twelve (12) month period.

     4.4  Registration of Other Securities in Demand Registration. Any
          -------------------------------------------------------

under this Section 4 may, subject to the provisions of Section 4.5, include
securities of the Company other than Registrable Securities.

<PAGE>

     4.5  Underwriting in Demand Registration.
          -----------------------------------

          4.5.1 Notice of Underwriting.  If the Initiating Holders intend to
                ----------------------
distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an
underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made
pursuant to this Section 4, and the Company shall include such information in
the written notice referred to in Section 4.1 or 4.3. The right of any Holder to
Registration pursuant to Section 4 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's
agreement to participate in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's
Registrable Securities in the underwriting.

          4.5.2 Inclusion of Other Holders in Demand Registration.  If the
                -------------------------------------------------
Company, officers, or directors of the Company holding Common Stock other than
Registrable Securities, or holders of securities other than Registrable
Securities, request inclusion in such Registration, the Initiating Holders, to
the extent they deem advisable and consistent with the goals of such
Registration and subject to Section 4.5.4, may, in their sole discretion, on
behalf of all Holders, offer to any or all of the Company, such officers or
directors, and such holders of securities other than Registrable Securities that
such securities other than Registrable Securities be included in the
underwriting and may condition such offer on the acceptance by such persons of
the terms of this Section 4. In the event, however, that the number of shares so
included exceeds the number of shares of Registrable Securities requested to be
included by all Holders, such Registration shall be treated as governed by
Section 5 hereof rather than Section 4, and it shall not count as a Registration
for purposes of Section 4.1 or Section 4.3 hereof.

          4.5.3 Selection of Underwriter in Demand Registration.  The Company
                -----------------------------------------------
shall (together with all Holders and other security holders, if any, proposing
to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into an
underwriting agreement with the representative ("Underwriter's Representative")
of the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company
and reasonably acceptable to the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities being registered by the Initiating Holders.

          4.5.4 Marketing Limitation in Demand Registration.  In the event the
                -------------------------------------------
Underwriter's Representative advises the Initiating Holders in writing that
market factors (including, without limitation, the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market,
and the status of the persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the
Registration) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten,
the underwriter and the Company may limit the number of Registrable Securities
to be included in the Registration and underwriting; provided, however, that no
Registrable Securities shall be so excluded unless (i) first, the Common Stock
(other than Registrable Securities) held by officers or employees of the
Company, (ii) second, the securities other than Registrable Securities (other
than those described in paragraph (iii) below), and (iii) third, the securities
requested to be registered by the Company, shall be excluded from such
Registration to the extent required by such limitation. If a limitation of the
number of shares is still required, the Company shall so advise all Holders and
the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the
Registration and underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders in
proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable
Securities otherwise

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

entitled to inclusion in such Registration held by such Holders at the time of
filing the Registration Statement. No Registrable Securities or other securities
excluded from the underwriting by reason of this Section 4.5.4 shall be included
in such Registration Statement.

          4.5.5 Right of Withdrawal in Demand Registration.  If any Holder of
                ------------------------------------------
Registrable Securities, or a holder of other securities entitled (upon request)
to be included in such Registration, disapproves of the terms of the
underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to
the Company, the Underwriter's Representative and the Initiating Holders
delivered at least seven days prior to the effective date of the Registration
Statement. The securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from the
Registration Statement. If the remaining Holders are not Initiating Holders,
then the Company may discontinue the Registration.

     4.6  Blue Sky in Demand Registration.  In the event of any Registration
          -------------------------------
pursuant to this Section 4, the Company will exercise its best efforts to
Register and qualify the securities covered by the Registration Statement under
such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be
reasonably appropriate for the distribution of such securities; provided,
however, that (i) the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or
to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or
jurisdictions unless the Company is already subject to service in such
jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act, and (ii)
notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event any
jurisdiction in which the securities shall be qualified imposes a non-waivable
requirement that expenses incurred in connection with the qualification of the
securities be borne by selling shareholders, such expenses shall be payable pro
rata by selling shareholders.

  5. Piggyback Registration.
     ----------------------

     5.1  Notice of Piggyback Registration and Inclusion of Registrable
          -------------------------------------------------------------
Securities.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, in the event the Company
- ----------
decides to Register any of its Common Stock (either for its own account or the
account of a security holder or holders exercising their respective demand
registration rights other than pursuant to Section 4 hereof) on a form that
would be suitable for a registration involving Registrable Securities, the
Company will: (i) promptly give each Holder written notice thereof (which shall
include a list of the jurisdictions in which the Company intends to attempt to
qualify such securities under the applicable Blue Sky or other state securities
laws) and (ii) include in such Registration (and any related qualification under
Blue Sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein,
all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request delivered to the
Company by any Holder within twenty (20) days after delivery of such written
notice from the Company.

     5.2  Underwriting in Piggyback Registration.
          --------------------------------------

          5.2.1 Notice of Underwriting in Piggyback Registration.  If the
                ------------------------------------------------
Registration of which the Company gives notice is for a Registered public
offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a
part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 5.1. In such event, the
right of any Holder to Registration shall be conditioned upon such underwriting
and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

such underwriting to the extent provided in this Section 5. All Holders
proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall
(together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities
through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement with the
Underwriter's Representative for such offering. The Holders shall have no right
to participate in the selection of the underwriters for an offering pursuant to
this Section 5.

          5.2.2  Marketing Limitation in Piggyback Registration.  In the event
                 ----------------------------------------------
the Underwriter's Representative advises the Company that market factors
(including, without limitation, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status
of the persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration)
require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the
Underwriter's Representative and the Company (subject to the allocation priority
set forth in Section 5.2.3) may:

                 (i)  in the case of the Company's initial Registered public
offering, exclude some or all Registrable Securities from such registration and
underwriting; and

                 (ii) in the case of any Registered public offering subsequent
to the initial public offering, limit the number of shares of Registrable
Securities to be included in such Registration and underwriting to not less than
thirty percent (30%) of the securities included in such Registration (based on
aggregate market values).

          5.2.3  Allocation of Shares in Piggyback Registration.  In the event
                 ----------------------------------------------
that the Underwriter's Representative and the Company limit the number of shares
to be included in a Registration pursuant to Section 5.2.2, the shares (other
than Registrable Securities) held by officers or employees of the Company shall
be excluded from such registration and underwriting to the extent required by
such limitation. If a limitation of the number of shares is still required after
such exclusion, the number of shares held by all other holders of securities
(including Registrable Securities) requesting and legally entitled to include
such securities in such Registration shall be excluded from such registration
and underwriting to the extent required by such limitation, in proportion, as
nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of securities which such other
holders would otherwise be entitled to include in such Registration; provided,
however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by the Holders
to be included in such Registration and underwriting shall not be limited to
less than thirty percent (30%) of the securities included in such Registration
(based on aggregate market value). No Registrable Securities or other securities
excluded from the underwriting by reason of this Section 5.2.3 shall be included
in the Registration Statement.

          5.2.4  Withdrawal in Piggyback Registration.  If any Holder
                 ------------------------------------
disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such person may elect to
withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the Underwriter's
Representative delivered at least seven days prior to the effective date of the
Registration Statement.  Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded
or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such Registration.

     5.3  Blue Sky in Piggyback Registration.  In the event of any Registration
          ----------------------------------
of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 5, the Company will exercise
its best efforts to

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

Register and qualify the securities covered by the Registration Statement under
such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be
reasonably appropriate for the distribution of such securities; provided,
however, that (i) the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or
to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or
jurisdictions unless the Company is already subject to service in such
jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act, and (ii)
notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event any
jurisdiction in which the securities shall be qualified imposes a non-waivable
requirement that expenses incurred in connection with the qualification of the
securities be borne by selling shareholders, such expenses shall be payable pro
rata by selling shareholders.

          6.   Expenses of Registration.  All Registration Expenses incurred in
               ------------------------
connection with all Registrations pursuant to Section 4 and Section 5 shall be
borne by the Company.  Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be
required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant
to Section 4 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the
request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be
registered (which Holders shall bear such expenses unless the Holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to such
registration), provided however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the
Holders have learned of a Material Adverse Event with respect to the condition,
business, or prospects of the Company not known to the Holders at the time of
their request, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such
expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 4.  All Selling
Expenses shall be borne by the holders of the securities Registered Pro Rata on
the basis of the number of shares Registered.

          7.   Termination of Registration Rights.  The rights to cause the
               ----------------------------------
Company to register securities granted under Sections 4 and 5 of this Agreement
shall terminate, with respect to each Holder five years after the closing date
of the Company's initial public offering; provided, however, that a Holder's
rights provided for under Sections 4 and 5 shall terminate earlier when (i) such
Holder owns less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding securities of the
Company, (ii) such Holder may sell all its shares in a three (3) month period
under Rule 144 of the Act, and (iii) the Company is then subject to the
reporting requirements of Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

          8.   Registration Procedures and Obligations.  Whenever required under
               ---------------------------------------
this Agreement to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the
Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

               (a) Prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement
with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause
such Registration Statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep
such Registration Statement effective for up to one hundred eighty (180) days,
provided, however, that such one hundred eighty (180) day period shall be
- --------  -------
extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains from
selling any securities included in such registration at the request of an
underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

          (b) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection
with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
securities covered by such Registration Statement for up to one hundred eighty
(180) days.

          (c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus,
including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order
to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.

          (d) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders,
provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to
service of process in any such states or jurisdictions unless the Company is
already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by
the Act.

          (e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and
perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary
form, with the managing underwriter of such offering.  Each Holder participating
in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under
such an agreement.

          (f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event
as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as
then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then
existing such obligation to continue for one hundred eighty (180) days.

          (g) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable
Securities registered pursuant to such Registration Statement and a CUSIP number
for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective
date of such registration.

          (h) Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of
Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, on the date that such
Registrable Securities are delivered for sale in connection with a registration
pursuant to this Agreement, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel
representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and
substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public
offering if any and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable
Securities, and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified
public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given
by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten
public offering, addressed to the underwriters if any and to the Holders
requesting registration of Registrable Securities.

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

          (i) Cause all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to
be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the
Company are then listed.

     9.   Information Furnished by Holder.  It shall be a condition precedent of
          -------------------------------
the Company's obligations under this Agreement, with respect to each Holder,
that such Holder of Registrable Securities included in any Registration furnish
to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the distribution
proposed by such Holder or Holders as shall be required to effect the
registration of such Holder's Registrable Securities.

     10.  Indemnification.
          ---------------

          10.1  Company's Indemnification of Holders.  To the extent permitted
                ------------------------------------
by law, the Company will indemnify each Holder, each of its officers, directors,
and constituent partners, legal counsel for the Holders, and each person
controlling such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act), with respect
to which Registration, qualification, or compliance of Registrable Securities
has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and
each person who controls any underwriter against all claims, losses, damages, or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) to the extent such claims, losses,
damages, or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement (or
alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any prospectus or
other document (including any related Registration Statement) incident to any
such Registration, qualification, or compliance, or are based on any omission
(or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any
violation by the Company of any rule or regulation promulgated under the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act applicable to the Company and relating to
action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such
Registration, qualification, or compliance; and the Company will reimburse each
such Holder, each such underwriter, and each person who controls any such Holder
or underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred, as
such expenses are incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any
such claim, loss, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the
indemnity contained in this Section 10.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability, or action if settlement
is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld); and provided, further, that if the Company and the
Holder disagree as to the reasonableness of the settlement terms, they shall
mutually agree upon an independent counsel to review the matter and resolve the
dispute with the cost of such counsel to be split between the Company and the
Holder; and provided, further, that the Company will not be liable in any such
case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability, or expense
arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission based upon
written information furnished to the Company by such Holder, underwriter, or
controlling person and stated to be for use in connection with the offering of
securities of the Company.

          10.2  Holder's Indemnification of Company.  To the extent permitted by
                -----------------------------------
law, each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are
included in the securities as to which such Registration, qualification or,
compliance is being effected pursuant to this Agreement, indemnify the Company,
each of its directors and officers, each legal counsel and

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

independent accountant of the Company, each underwriter, if any, of the
Company's securities covered by such a Registration Statement, each person who
controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities
Act, and each other such Holder, each of its officers, directors, and
constituent partners, and each person controlling such other Holder (within the
meaning of the Securities Act), against all claims, losses, damages, and
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based upon any
untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in
any such Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular, or other
document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, or any violation by such Holder of any rule or regulation
promulgated under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act applicable to such
Holder and relating to action or inaction required of such Holder in connection
with any such Registration, qualification, or compliance, and will reimburse the
Company, such Holders, such directors, officers, partners, persons, law and
accounting firms, underwriters or control persons for any legal and any other
expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any
such claim, loss, damage, liability, or action, in each case to the extent, but
in each case only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue
statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such Registration
Statement, prospectus, offering circular, or other document in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder
and stated to be specifically for use in connection with the offering of
securities of the Company, provided, however, that the indemnity contained in
this Section 10.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such
claim, loss, damage, liability or action if settlement is effected without the
consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and
provided, further, that each Holder's liability under this Section 10.2 shall
not exceed such Holder's net proceeds from the offering of securities made in
connection with such Registration.

          10.3 Indemnification Procedure.  Promptly after receipt by an
               -------------------------
indemnified party under this Section 10 of notice of the commencement of any
action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made
against an indemnifying party under this Section 10, notify the indemnifying
party in writing of the commencement thereof and generally summarize such
action.  The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and to
assume the defense of such claim; provided, however, that the indemnifying party
shall be entitled to select counsel for the defense of such claim with the
approval of any parties entitled to indemnification, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld; provided further, however, that if either party
reasonably determines that there may be a conflict between the position of the
Company and the Holders in conducting the defense of such action, suit, or
proceeding (such conflict being related to claims for indemnity under this
Section 10), then counsel for such party whose reasonable fees and expenses
shall be borne by the indemnifying party shall be entitled to conduct the
defense to the extent reasonably determined by such counsel to be necessary to
protect the interest of such party.  The failure to notify an indemnifying party
promptly of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to the ability
of the indemnifying party to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying
party, to the extent so prejudiced, of any liability to the indemnified party
under this Section 10, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will
not relieve such party of any liability that such party may have to any
indemnified party otherwise other than under this Section 10.

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

          10.4  Contribution.  If the indemnification provided for in this
                ------------
Section 10 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or
expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other
in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations.  The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission.

          10.5  The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 10
shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a
registration statement under this Agreement.

     11.  Limitations on Registration Rights Granted to Other Securities. From
          --------------------------------------------------------------
and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not enter into any
agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company
providing for the granting to such holder of any Registration rights that are
superior to such rights provided to the Holders under this Agreement without the
consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Registrable Securities.
With the consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then
outstanding, additional holders may be added as parties to this Agreement with
regard to any or all securities of the Company held by them.  Any such
additional parties shall execute a counterpart of this Agreement, and upon
execution by such additional parties and by the Company, shall be considered an
Investor for all purposes of this Agreement.  The additional parties and the
additional Registrable Securities shall be identified in an amendment to
Schedule A hereto.

     12.   Transfer of Rights.
           ------------------

           12.1  The right to cause the Company to Register Securities granted
by the Company to the Investors under this Agreement may be assigned by any
Holder to (i) any partner, member or other owner or retired partner, member or
other owner of any Holder which is a partnership or limited liability company,
(ii) any family member or trust for the benefit of any individual Holder, or
(iii) any transferee or assignee of any Convertible Securities or Registrable
Securities not sold to the public pursuant to a public offering acquiring at
least 300,000 shares of such Holder's Registrable Securities (equitably adjusted
for any stock splits, subdivisions, stock dividends, changes, combinations or
the like); provided, however, that the Company must receive written notice prior
to the time of said transfer, stating the name and address of said transferee or
assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such information
and Registration rights are being assigned, and the transferee or assignee of
such rights must not be a person deemed by the Board of Directors of the
Company, in its best judgment, to be a competitor or potential competitor of the
Company.

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

          12.2  Notwithstanding the limitation set forth in the foregoing
Section 12.1, any Holder which is a partnership, a limited liability company or
a limited duration company may transfer such Holder's Registration rights to
such Holder's constituent partners or members (or any affiliates) without
restriction as to the number or percentage of shares acquired by any such
constituent partner or member and any Holder who is an individual may transfer
such rights to a member of Holder's immediate family or to a trust for the
benefit of Holder or of a member of Holder's immediate family without
restriction as to the number or percentage of shares acquired by any such person
or trust.

     13.  Market Standoff.  Each Holder hereby agrees that, if so requested by
          ---------------
the Company and the Underwriter's Representative (if any) in connection with the
Company's initial public offering, such Holder shall not sell, make any short
sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise transfer or
dispose (other than to partners, affiliates or shareholders of such Holder who
shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 13) of any Registrable
Securities without the prior written consent of the Company and the
Underwriter's Representative for such offerings for such period of time (not to
exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) following the effective date of a
Registration Statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act as may be
requested by such Underwriter's Representative. The obligations of Holders under
this Section 13 shall be conditioned upon similar agreements being in effect
with each other shareholder who is an employee, officer, director or 1%
shareholder of the Company. Furthermore, with respect to any shares of the
Company offered or traded in the public market (including pursuant to the
Company's initial public offering or any market that may develop pursuant to
Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act) there shall be no restriction on
the acquisition or disposition of such shares pursuant to the Transactional
Agreements (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement).

     14.  No-Action Letter or Opinion of Counsel in Lieu of Registration;
          ---------------------------------------------------------------
Conversion of Preferred Stock.  Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement,
- -----------------------------
if the Company shall have obtained from the Commission a "no-action" letter in
which the Commission has indicated that it will take no action if, without
Registration under the Securities Act, any Holder disposes of Registrable
Securities covered by any request for Registration made under this Section in
the specific manner in which such Holder proposes to dispose of the Registrable
Securities included in such request (such as including, without limitation,
inclusion of such Registrable Securities in an underwriting initiated by either
the Company or the holders) and that such Registrable Securities may be sold to
the public without Registration, or if in the opinion of counsel for the Company
concurred in by counsel for such Holder, which concurrence shall not be
unreasonably withheld, no Registration under the Securities Act is required in
connection with such disposition and that such Registrable Securities may be
sold to the public without Registration, the Registrable Securities included in
such request shall not be eligible for Registration under this Agreement;
provided, however, that any Registrable Securities not so disposed of shall be
eligible for Registration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement with
respect to other proposed dispositions to which this Section 14 does not apply.
The Registration rights of the Holders of the Registrable Securities set forth
in this Agreement are conditioned upon the conversion of the Registrable
Securities with respect to which Registration is sought into Common Stock
immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

     15.  Reports Under Exchange Act.  With a view to making available to
          --------------------------
the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and
any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit a
Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without Registration or
pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to:

          (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144 after the date that the Company becomes
subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act;

          (b) take such action, including the voluntary registration of its
Common Stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, as is necessary to enable the
Holders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities, such
action to be taken as soon as practicable after the first Registration Statement
filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general public is
declared effective;

          (c) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;
and

          (d) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable
Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that
it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act,
and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting
requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be
resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of
the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports
and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may
be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the
Commission which permits the selling of any such securities without Registration
or pursuant to such form.

     16.  Capital Expenditures.  The Company covenants that it will not
          --------------------
undertake any corporate action involving capital expenditures greater than
$200,000 (other than such action included in a budget previously approved by the
Company's Board of Directors) without first obtaining the affirmative vote or
written consent of the holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred, Series B Preferred, Series C
Preferred, Series D Preferred and Series E Preferred (voting on an as-converted
to Common Stock basis), voting together as a single class.

     17.  Miscellaneous.
          -------------

          17.1  Entire Agreement; Successors and Assigns; Waiver of Rights of
                -------------------------------------------------------------
First Refusal.  This agreement constitutes the entire contract between the
- -------------
Company and the Investors relative to the subject matter hereof.  Any previous
agreement between the Company and any Investor concerning registration rights
and rights to information is superseded by this Agreement.  Subject to the
exceptions specifically set forth in this Agreement, the terms and conditions of
this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective
executors, administrators, heirs, successor, and assigns of the parties.
Investors who are parties to the Prior Agreement, who constitute a majority of
the Registrable Securities thereunder, hereby waive on

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

behalf of all the Holders under the Prior Agreement (i) the notice periods set
forth in Section 3 of the Prior Agreement with respect to their Right of First
Refusal, and (ii) the Right of First Refusal with respect to shares of Series E
Preferred that the Holders are not acquiring hereunder.

          17.2  Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and
                -------------
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California excluding
those laws that direct the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

          17.3  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more
                ------------
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

          17.4  Headings.  The headings of the Sections of this Agreement are
                --------
for convenience and shall not by themselves determine the interpretation of
this Agreement.

          17.5  Notices.  Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be
                -------
given in writing and shall be conclusively deemed effectively given upon
personal delivery, or five days after deposit in the United States mail, by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed (i) if to the Company,
as set forth below the Company's name on the signature page of this Agreement,
and (ii) if to an Investor, at such Investor's address as set forth on Schedule
A, or at such other address as the Company or such Investor may designate by ten
(10) days advance written notice to the Investors or the Company, respectively.

          17.6  Amendment of Agreement.  Any provision of this Agreement may be
                ----------------------
amended (and the rights of first refusal provided in Section 3 waived) only by a
written instrument signed by the Company and by persons holding a majority of
the Registrable Securities as defined in Section 1 of this Agreement; provided,
however, that no provision of this Agreement may be amended such that the rights
hereunder of any Holder of Registrable Securities are adversely affected
relative to the rights of any other such Holder without the approval of the
Holders of at least two-thirds of the Registrable Securities adversely affected;
provided, however, that no amendment shall be effective as to any investment
company without its approval.

          17.7  Severability.  In case any provision of this Agreement shall be
                ------------
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

          17.8  Prior Agreements.  Any and all prior agreements between the
                ----------------
Company and the parties hereto governing information and registration rights are
hereby superseded and replaced.

          17.9  Aggregation of Stock.  All shares of Registrable Securities held
                --------------------
or acquired by affiliated entities or persons shall be aggregated together for
the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement.

                                      -18-

                               INTERWOVEN, INC.

                          1999 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

                           As Adopted July 22, 1999


          1.   PURPOSE. The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentives to
               -------
attract, retain and motivate eligible persons whose present and potential
contributions are important to the success of the Company, its Parent and
Subsidiaries, by offering them an opportunity to participate in the Company's
future performance through awards of Options, Restricted Stock and Stock
Bonuses.  Capitalized terms not defined in the text are defined in Section 23.

          2.   SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.
               --------------------------

               2.1  Number of Shares Available. Subject to Sections 2.2 and 18,
                    --------------------------
the total number of Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance
pursuant to this Plan will be 2,900,000 Shares plus Shares that are subject to:
(a) issuance upon exercise of an Option but cease to be subject to such Option
for any reason other than exercise of such Option; (b) an Award granted
hereunder but are forfeited or are repurchased by the Company at the original
issue price; and (c) an Award that otherwise terminates without Shares being
issued. In addition, any authorized shares not issued or subject to outstanding
grants under the 1996 Stock Option Plan and the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the
"Prior Plans") on the Effective Date (as defined below) and any shares issued
under the Prior Plans that are forfeited or repurchased by the Company or that
are issuable upon exercise of options granted pursuant to the Prior Plans that
expire or become unexercisable for any reason without having been exercised in
full, will no longer be available for grant and issuance under the Prior Plans,
but will be available for grant and issuance under this Plan. At all times the
Company shall reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Shares as shall
be required to satisfy the requirements of all outstanding Options granted under
this Plan and all other outstanding but unvested Awards granted under this Plan.

               2.2  Adjustment of Shares. In the event that the number of
                    --------------------
outstanding shares is changed by a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock
split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification or
similar change in the capital structure of the Company without consideration,
then (a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan, (b) the
Exercise Prices of and number of Shares subject to outstanding Options, and (c)
the number of Shares subject to other outstanding Awards will be proportionately
adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the
Company and compliance with applicable securities laws; provided, however, that
                                                        --------  -------
fractions of a Share will not be issued but will either be replaced by a cash
payment equal to the Fair Market Value of such fraction of a Share or will be
rounded up to the nearest whole Share, as determined by the Committee.

          3.   ELIGIBILITY. ISOs (as defined in Section 5 below) may be granted
               -----------
only to employees (including officers and directors who are also employees) of
the Company or of a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. All other Awards may be
granted to employees, officers, directors, consultants, independent contractors
and advisors of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company; provided
                                                                        --------
such consultants, contractors and advisors render bona fide services not in
connection with the offer and sale of securities in a capital-raising
transaction. No person will be eligible to receive more than 1,000,000 Shares in
any calendar year under this Plan pursuant to the grant of Awards hereunder,
other than new employees of the Company or of a Parent or Subsidiary of the
Company (including new employees who are also officers and directors of the
Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company), who are eligible to receive
up to a maximum of 1,500,000 Shares in the calendar year in which they commence
their employment. A person may be granted more than one Award under this Plan.

          4.   ADMINISTRATION.
               --------------

               4.1  Committee Authority. This Plan will be administered by the
                    -------------------
Committee or by the Board acting as the Committee. Except for automatic grants
to Outside Directors pursuant to Section 9 hereof, and
<PAGE>

subject to the general purposes, terms and conditions of this Plan, and to the
direction of the Board, the Committee will have full power to implement and
carry out this Plan. Except for automatic grants to Outside Directors pursuant
to Section 9 hereof, the Committee will have the authority to:

          (a)  construe and interpret this Plan, any Award Agreement and any
               other agreement or document executed pursuant to this Plan;

          (b)  prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to
               this Plan or any Award;

          (c)  select persons to receive Awards;

          (d)  determine the form and terms of Awards;

          (e)  determine the number of Shares or other consideration subject to
               Awards;

          (f)  determine whether Awards will be granted singly, in combination
               with, in tandem with, in replacement of, or as alternatives to,
               other Awards under this Plan or any other incentive or
               compensation plan of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of
               the Company;

          (g)  grant waivers of Plan or Award conditions;

          (h)  determine the vesting, exercisability and payment of Awards;

          (i)  correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any
               inconsistency in this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement;

          (j)  determine whether an Award has been earned; and

          (k)  make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the
               administration of this Plan.

               4.2  Committee Discretion. Except for automatic grants to Outside
                    --------------------
Directors pursuant to Section 9 hereof, any determination made by the Committee
with respect to any Award will be made in its sole discretion at the time of
grant of the Award or, unless in contravention of any express term of this Plan
or Award, at any later time, and such determination will be final and binding on
the Company and on all persons having an interest in any Award under this Plan.
The Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the Company the authority
to grant an Award under this Plan to Participants who are not Insiders of the
Company.

          5.   OPTIONS. The Committee may grant Options to eligible persons and
               -------
will determine whether such Options will be Incentive Stock Options within the
meaning of the Code ("ISO") or Nonqualified Stock Options ("NQSOs"), the number
of Shares subject to the Option, the Exercise Price of the Option, the period
during which the Option may be exercised, and all other terms and conditions of
the Option, subject to the following:

               5.1  Form of Option Grant. Each Option granted under this Plan
                    --------------------
will be evidenced by an Award Agreement which will expressly identify the Option
as an ISO or an NQSO ("Stock Option Agreement"), and, except as otherwise
required by the terms of Section 9 hereof, will be in such form and contain such
provisions (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee
may from time to time approve, and which will comply with and be subject to the
terms and conditions of this Plan.

               5.2  Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option will be the
                    -------------
date on which the Committee makes the determination to grant such Option, unless
otherwise specified by the Committee.  The Stock Option Agreement and a copy of
this Plan will be delivered to the Participant within a reasonable time after
the

                                       2
<PAGE>

granting of the Option.

               5.3  Exercise Period. Options may be exercisable within the times
                    ---------------
or upon the events determined by the Committee as set forth in the Stock Option
Agreement governing such Option; provided, however, that no Option will be
                                 --------  -------
exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option is
granted; and provided further that no ISO granted to a person who directly or by
             ----------------
attribution owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power
of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the
Company ("Ten Percent Stockholder") will be exercisable after the expiration of
five (5) years from the date the ISO is granted.  The Committee also may provide
for Options to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically
or otherwise, in such number of Shares or percentage of Shares as the Committee
determines.

               5.4  Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an Option will be
                    --------------
determined by the Committee when the Option is granted and may be not less than
85% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant; provided that:
(i) the Exercise Price of an ISO will be not less than 100% of the Fair Market
Value of the Shares on the date of grant; and (ii) the Exercise Price of any ISO
granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder will not be less than 110% of the Fair
Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant.  Payment for the Shares
purchased may be made in accordance with Section 8 of this Plan.

               5.5  Method of Exercise. Options may be exercised only by
                    ------------------
delivery to the Company of a written stock option exercise agreement  (the
"Exercise Agreement") in a form approved by the Committee (which need not be the
same for each Participant), stating the number of Shares being purchased, the
restrictions imposed on the Shares purchased under such Exercise Agreement, if
any, and such representations and agreements regarding Participant's investment
intent and access to information and other matters, if any, as may be required
or desirable by the Company to comply with applicable securities laws, together
with payment in full of the Exercise Price for the number of Shares being
purchased.

               5.6  Termination. Notwithstanding the exercise periods set forth
                    -----------
in the Stock Option Agreement, exercise of an Option will always be subject to
the following:

          (a)  If the Participant is Terminated for any reason except death or
               Disability, then the Participant may exercise such Participant's
               Options only to the extent that such Options would have been
               exercisable upon the Termination Date no later than three (3)
               months after the Termination Date (or such shorter or longer time
               period not exceeding five (5) years as may be determined by the
               Committee, with any exercise beyond three (3) months after the
               Termination Date deemed to be an NQSO), but in any event, no
               later than the expiration date of the Options.

          (b)  If the Participant is Terminated because of Participant's death
               or Disability (or the Participant dies within three (3) months
               after a Termination other than for Cause or because of
               Participant's Disability), then Participant's Options may be
               exercised only to the extent that such Options would have been
               exercisable by Participant on the Termination Date and must be
               exercised by Participant (or Participant's legal representative
               or authorized assignee) no later than twelve (12) months after
               the Termination Date (or such shorter or longer time period not
               exceeding five (5) years as may be determined by the Committee,
               with any such exercise beyond (a) three (3) months after the
               Termination Date when the Termination is for any reason other
               than the Participant's death or Disability, or (b) twelve (12)
               months after the Termination Date when the Termination is for
               Participant's death or Disability, deemed to be an NQSO), but in
               any event no later than the expiration date of the Options.

          (c)  Notwithstanding the provisions in paragraph 5.6(a) above, if a
               Participant is terminated for Cause, neither the Participant, the
               Participant's estate nor such other person who may then

                                       3
<PAGE>

               hold the Option shall be entitled to exercise any Option with
               respect to any Shares whatsoever, after termination of service,
               whether or not after termination of service the Participant may
               receive payment from the Company or Subsidiary for vacation pay,
               for services rendered prior to termination, for services rendered
               for the day on which termination occurs, for salary in lieu of
               notice, or for any other benefits. In making such determination,
               the Board shall give the Participant an opportunity to present to
               the Board evidence on his behalf. For the purpose of this
               paragraph, termination of service shall be deemed to occur on the
               date when the Company dispatches notice or advice to the
               Participant that his service is terminated.

               5.7  Limitations on Exercise. The Committee may specify a
                    -----------------------
reasonable minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of an
Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent Participant from
exercising the Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then
exercisable.

               5.8  Limitations on ISO. The aggregate Fair Market Value
                    ------------------
(determined as of the date of grant) of Shares with respect to which ISO are
exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under
this Plan or under any other incentive stock option plan of the Company, Parent
or Subsidiary of the Company) will not exceed $100,000.  If the Fair Market
Value of Shares on the date of grant with respect to which ISO are exercisable
for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000,
then the Options for the first $100,000 worth of Shares to become exercisable in
such calendar year will be ISO and the Options for the amount in excess of
$100,000 that become exercisable in that calendar year will be NQSOs.  In the
event that the Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder are amended after
the Effective Date of this Plan to provide for a different limit on the Fair
Market Value of Shares permitted to be subject to ISO, such different limit will
be automatically incorporated herein and will apply to any Options granted after
the effective date of such amendment.

               5.9  Modification, Extension or Renewal. The Committee may
                    ----------------------------------
modify, extend or renew outstanding Options and authorize the grant of new
Options in substitution therefor, provided that any such action may not, without
the written consent of a Participant, impair any of such Participant's rights
under any Option previously granted.  Any outstanding ISO that is modified,
extended, renewed or otherwise altered will be treated in accordance with
Section 424(h) of the Code.  The Committee may reduce the Exercise Price of
outstanding Options without the consent of Participants affected by a written
notice to them; provided, however, that the Exercise Price may not be reduced
                --------  -------
below the minimum Exercise Price that would be permitted under Section 5.4 of
this Plan for Options granted on the date the action is taken to reduce the
Exercise Price.

               5.10 No Disqualification.  Notwithstanding any other provision in
                    -------------------
this Plan, no term of this Plan relating to ISO will be interpreted, amended or
altered, nor will any discretion or authority granted under this Plan be
exercised, so as to disqualify this Plan under Section 422 of the Code or,
without the consent of the Participant affected, to disqualify any ISO under
Section 422 of the Code.

         6.    RESTRICTED STOCK. A Restricted Stock Award is an offer by the
               ----------------
Company to sell to an eligible person Shares that are subject to restrictions.
The Committee will determine to whom an offer will be made, the number of Shares
the person may purchase, the price to be paid (the "Purchase Price"), the
restrictions to which the Shares will be subject, and all other terms and
conditions of the Restricted Stock Award, subject to the following:

               6.1  Form of Restricted Stock Award. All purchases under a
                    ------------------------------
Restricted Stock Award made pursuant to this Plan will be evidenced by an Award
Agreement ("Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement") that will be in such form
(which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from
time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and
conditions of this Plan.  The offer of Restricted Stock will be accepted by the
Participant's execution and delivery of the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement
and full payment for the Shares to the Company within thirty (30) days from the
date the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement is delivered to the person.  If
such person does not execute and deliver the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement
along with full payment for the Shares to the Company within thirty (30) days,
then the offer will terminate,

                                       4
<PAGE>

unless otherwise determined by the Committee.

               6.2  Purchase Price. The Purchase Price of Shares sold pursuant
                    --------------
to a Restricted Stock Award will be determined by the Committee on the date the
Restricted Stock Award is granted, except in the case of a sale to a Ten Percent
Stockholder, in which case the Purchase Price will be 100% of the Fair Market
Value.  Payment of the Purchase Price may be made in accordance with Section 8
of this Plan.

               6.3  Terms of Restricted Stock Awards. Restricted Stock Awards
                    --------------------------------
shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose.  These
restrictions may be based upon completion of a specified number of years of
service with the Company or upon completion of the performance goals as set out
in advance in the Participant's individual Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement.
Restricted Stock Awards may vary from Participant to Participant and between
groups of Participants.  Prior to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, the
Committee shall:  (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any
Performance Period for the Restricted Stock Award; (b) select from among the
Performance Factors to be used to measure performance goals, if any; and (c)
determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the Participant.  Prior to
the payment of any Restricted Stock Award, the Committee shall determine the
extent to which such Restricted Stock Award has been earned.  Performance
Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect
to Restricted Stock Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and
having different performance goals and other criteria.

               6.4  Termination During Performance Period. If a Participant is
                    -------------------------------------
Terminated during a Performance Period for any reason, then such Participant
will be entitled to payment (whether in Shares, cash or otherwise) with respect
to the Restricted Stock Award only to the extent earned as of the date of
Termination in accordance with the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement, unless
the Committee will determine otherwise.

         7.    STOCK BONUSES.
               -------------

               7.1  Awards of Stock Bonuses. A Stock Bonus is an award of Shares
                    -----------------------
(which may consist of Restricted Stock) for services rendered to the Company or
any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company.  A Stock Bonus may be awarded for past
services already rendered to the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary of the
Company pursuant to an Award Agreement (the "Stock Bonus Agreement") that will
be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the
Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to
the terms and conditions of this Plan.  A Stock Bonus may be awarded upon
satisfaction of such performance goals as are set out in advance in the
Participant's individual Award Agreement (the "Performance Stock Bonus
Agreement") that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each
Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply
with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan.  Stock Bonuses may
vary from Participant to Participant and between groups of Participants, and may
be based upon the achievement of the Company, Parent or Subsidiary and/or
individual performance factors or upon such other criteria as the Committee may
determine.

               7.2  Terms of Stock Bonuses. The Committee will determine the
                    ----------------------
number of Shares to be awarded to the Participant.  If the Stock Bonus is being
earned upon the satisfaction of performance goals pursuant to a Performance
Stock Bonus Agreement, then the Committee will: (a)  determine the nature,
length and starting date of any Performance Period for each Stock Bonus; (b)
select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the performance,
if any; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the
Participant.  Prior to the payment of any Stock Bonus, the Committee shall
determine the extent to which such Stock Bonuses have been earned.  Performance
Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect
to Stock Bonuses that are subject to different Performance Periods and different
performance goals and other criteria.  The number of Shares may be fixed or may
vary in accordance with such performance goals and criteria as may be determined
by the Committee.  The Committee may adjust the performance goals applicable to
the Stock Bonuses to take into account changes in law and accounting or tax
rules and to make such adjustments as the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or
circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships.

                                       5
<PAGE>

               7.3  Form of Payment. The earned portion of a Stock Bonus may be
                    ---------------
paid currently or on a deferred basis with such interest or dividend equivalent,
if any, as the Committee may determine.  Payment may be made in the form of cash
or whole Shares or a combination thereof, either in a lump sum payment or in
installments, all as the Committee will determine.

         8.    PAYMENT FOR SHARE PURCHASES.
               ---------------------------

               8.1  Payment. Payment for Shares purchased pursuant to this Plan
                    -------
may be made in cash (by check) or, where expressly approved for the Participant
by the Committee and where permitted by law:

          (a)  by cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the
               Participant;

          (b)  by surrender of shares that either: (1) have been owned by
               Participant for more than six (6) months and have been paid for
               within the meaning of SEC Rule 144 (and, if such shares were
               purchased from the Company by use of a promissory note, such note
               has been fully paid with respect to such shares); or (2) were
               obtained by Participant in the public market;

          (c)  by tender of a full recourse promissory note having such terms as
               may be approved by the Committee and bearing interest at a rate
               sufficient to avoid imputation of income under Sections 483 and
               1274 of the Code; provided, however, that Participants who are
                                 --------  -------
               not employees or directors of the Company will not be entitled to

               (1)  through a "same day sale" commitment from the Participant
                    and a broker-dealer that is a member of the National
                    Association of Securities Dealers (an "NASD Dealer") whereby
                    the Participant irrevocably elects to exercise the Option
                    and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased to pay for
                    the Exercise Price, and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably
                    commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the Exercise
                    Price directly to the Company; or

               (2)  through a "margin" commitment from the Participant and a
                    NASD Dealer whereby the Participant irrevocably elects to
                    exercise the Option and to pledge the Shares so purchased to
                    the NASD Dealer in a margin account as security for a loan
                    from the NASD Dealer in the amount of the Exercise Price,
                    and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt
                    of such Shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the
                    Company; or

          (f)  by any combination of the foregoing.

               8.2  Loan Guarantees. The Committee may help the Participant pay
                    ---------------
for Shares purchased under this Plan by authorizing a guarantee by the Company
of a third-party loan to the Participant.

          9.   AUTOMATIC GRANTS TO OUTSIDE DIRECTORS.
               --------------------------------------

               9.1  Types of Options and Shares. Options granted under this Plan
                    ----------------------------
and subject to this Section 9 shall be NQSOs.

                                       6
<PAGE>

               9.2  Eligibility. Options subject to this Section 9 shall be
                    -----------
granted only to Outside Directors.

               9.3  Annual Grants. Each Outside Director who was a member of
                    -------------
the Board before the Effective Date will automatically be granted an Option for
10,000 Shares on the Effective Date, unless such Outside Director received a
grant of Options before the Effective Date.  Each Outside Director who first
becomes a member of the Board on or after the Effective Date will automatically
be granted an Option for 20,000 Shares on the date such Outside Director first
becomes a member of the Board.  Immediately following each annual meeting of
stockholders, all Outside Directors will automatically be granted an Option for
10,000 Shares, provided the Outside Director is a member of the Board on such
date and has served continuously as a member of the Board for a period of at
least one year since the date when such Outside Director first became a member
of the Board (the "Annual Grant").

               9.4  Vesting. Each Annual Grant shall be 100% vested and
                    -------
immediately exercisable as of the date of grant.

               9.5  Exercise Price. The exercise price of an Annual Grant shall
                    --------------
be the Fair Market Value of the Shares, at the time that the Option is granted.

          10.  WITHHOLDING TAXES.
               -----------------

               10.1 Withholding Generally. Whenever Shares are to be issued in
                    ---------------------
satisfaction of Awards granted under this Plan, the Company may require the
Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal,
state and local withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery of any
certificate or certificates for such Shares.  Whenever, under this Plan,
payments in satisfaction of Awards are to be made in cash, such payment will be
net of an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local withholding tax
requirements.

               10.2 Stock Withholding. When, under applicable tax laws, a
                    -----------------
Participant incurs tax liability in connection with the exercise or vesting of
any Award that is subject to tax withholding and the Participant is obligated to
pay the Company the amount required to be withheld, the Committee may in its
sole discretion allow the Participant to satisfy the minimum withholding tax
obligation by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued
that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount
required to be withheld, determined on the date that the amount of tax to be
withheld is to be determined.  All elections by a Participant to have Shares
withheld for this purpose will be made in accordance with the requirements
established by the Committee and be in writing in a form acceptable to the
Committee

          11.  TRANSFERABILITY.
               ---------------

               11.1 Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11, Awards
granted under this Plan, and any interest therein, will not be transferable or
assignable by Participant, and may not be made subject to execution, attachment
or similar process, otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution or as determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award
Agreement with respect to Awards that are not ISOs.

               11.2 All Awards other than NQSO's. All Awards other than NQSO's
                    -----------------------------
shall be exercisable: (i) during the Participant's lifetime, only by (A) the
Participant, or (B) the Participant's guardian or legal representative; and (ii)
after Participant's death, by the legal representative of the Participant's
heirs or legatees.

               11.3 NQSOs. Unless otherwise restricted by the Committee, an NQSO
                    -----
shall be exercisable: (i) during the Participant's lifetime only by (A) the
Participant, (B) the Participant's guardian or legal representative, (C) a
Family Member of the Participant who has acquired the NQSO by "permitted
transfer;" and (ii) after Participant's death, by the legal representative of
the Participant's heirs or legatees.  "Permitted transfer" means, as authorized
by this Plan and the Committee in an NQSO, any transfer effected by

                                       7
<PAGE>

the Participant during the Participant's lifetime of an interest in such NQSO
but only such transfers which are by gift or domestic relations order. A
permitted transfer does not include any transfer for value and neither of the
following are transfers for value: (a) a transfer of under a domestic relations
order in settlement of marital property rights or (b) a transfer to an entity in
which more than fifty percent of the voting interests are owned by Family
Members or the Participant in exchange for an interest in that entity.

          12.  PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP; RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES..
               ------------------------------------------------------

               12.1 Voting and Dividends. No Participant will have any of the
                    --------------------
rights of a stockholder with respect to any Shares until the Shares are issued
to the Participant. After Shares are issued to the Participant, the Participant
will be a stockholder and have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to
such Shares, including the right to vote and receive all dividends or other
distributions made or paid with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such
                                                        --------
Shares are Restricted Stock, then any new, additional or different securities
the Participant may become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by
virtue of a stock dividend, stock split or any other change in the corporate or
capital structure of the Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the
Restricted Stock; provided, further, that the Participant will have no right to
                  --------  -------
retain such stock dividends or stock distributions with respect to Shares that
are repurchased at the Participant's Purchase Price or Exercise Price pursuant
to Section 12.

               12.2 Financial Statements. The Company will provide financial
                    --------------------
statements to each Participant prior to such Participant's purchase of Shares
under this Plan, and to each Participant annually during the period such
Participant has Awards outstanding; provided, however, the Company will not be
                                    --------  -------
required to provide such financial statements to Participants whose services in
connection with the Company assure them access to equivalent information.

               12.3 Restrictions on Shares. At the discretion of the Committee,
                    -----------------------
the Company may reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) in the Award Agreement
a right to repurchase a portion of or all Unvested Shares held by a Participant
following such Participant's Termination at any time within ninety (90) days
after the later of Participant's Termination Date and the date Participant
purchases Shares under this Plan, for cash and/or cancellation of purchase money
indebtedness, at the Participant's Exercise Price or Purchase Price, as the case
may be.

          13.  CERTIFICATES. All certificates for Shares or other securities
               ------------
delivered under this Plan will be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends
and other restrictions as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable,
including restrictions under any applicable federal, state or foreign securities
law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any stock
exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may be listed or
quoted.

          14.  ESCROW; PLEDGE OF SHARES. To enforce any restrictions on a
               ------------------------
Participant's Shares, the Committee may require the Participant to deposit all
certificates representing Shares, together with stock powers or other
instruments of transfer approved by the Committee, appropriately endorsed in
blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow
until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated, and the Committee may cause a
legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the
certificates.  Any Participant who is permitted to execute a promissory note as
partial or full consideration for the purchase of Shares under this Plan will be
required to pledge and deposit with the Company all or part of the Shares so
purchased as collateral to secure the payment of Participant's obligation to the
Company under the promissory note; provided, however, that the Committee may
                                   --------  -------
require or accept other or additional forms of collateral to secure the payment
of such obligation and, in any event, the Company will have full recourse
against the Participant under the promissory note notwithstanding any pledge of
the Participant's Shares or other collateral.  In connection with any pledge of
the Shares, Participant will be required to execute and deliver a written pledge
agreement in such form as the Committee will from time to time approve.  The
Shares purchased with the promissory note may be released from the pledge on a
pro rata basis as the promissory note is paid.

                                       8
<PAGE>

          15.  EXCHANGE AND BUYOUT OF AWARDS. The Committee may, at any time or
               -----------------------------
from time to time, authorize the Company, with the consent of the respective
Participants, to issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation
of any or all outstanding Awards.  The Committee may at any time buy from a
Participant an Award previously granted with payment in cash, Shares (including
Restricted Stock) or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as
the Committee and the Participant may agree.

          16.  SECURITIES LAW AND OTHER REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. An Award will not
               ----------------------------------------------
be effective unless such Award is in compliance with all applicable federal and
state securities laws, rules and regulations of any governmental body, and the
requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the
Shares may then be listed or quoted, as they are in effect on the date of grant
of the Award and also on the date of exercise or other issuance.
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no
obligation to issue or deliver certificates for Shares under this Plan prior to:
(a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company
determines are necessary or advisable; and/or (b) completion of any registration
or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or ruling
of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or
advisable.  The Company will be under no obligation to register the Shares with
the SEC or to effect compliance with the registration, qualification or listing
requirements of any state securities laws, stock exchange or automated quotation
system, and the Company will have no liability for any inability or failure to
do so.

          17.  NO OBLIGATION TO EMPLOY. Nothing in this Plan or any Award
               -----------------------
granted under this Plan will confer or be deemed to confer on any Participant
any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship
with, the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company or limit in any way
the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company to terminate
Participant's employment or other relationship at any time, with or without
cause.

          18.  CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.
               ----------------------

               18.1 Assumption or Replacement of Awards by Successor. In the
                    ------------------------------------------------
event of (a) a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (b) a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation (other than
a merger or consolidation with a wholly-owned subsidiary, a reincorporation of
the Company in a different jurisdiction, or other transaction in which there is
no substantial change in the stockholders of the Company or their relative stock
holdings and the Awards granted under this Plan are assumed, converted or
replaced by the successor corporation, which assumption will be binding on all
Participants), (c) a merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation
but after which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger
(other than any stockholder that merges, or which owns or controls another
corporation that merges, with the Company in such merger) cease to own their
shares or other equity interest in the Company, (d) the sale of substantially
all of the assets of the Company, or (e) the acquisition, sale, or transfer of
more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company by tender offer or
similar transaction, any or all outstanding Awards may be assumed, converted or
replaced by the successor corporation (if any), which assumption, conversion or
replacement will be binding on all Participants. In the alternative, the
successor corporation may substitute equivalent Awards or provide substantially
similar consideration to Participants as was provided to stockholders (after
taking into account the existing provisions of the Awards). The successor
corporation may also issue, in place of outstanding Shares of the Company held
by the Participants, substantially similar shares or other property subject to
repurchase restrictions no less favorable to the Participant. In the event such
successor corporation (if any) refuses to assume or substitute Awards, as
provided above, pursuant to a transaction described in this Subsection 18.1,
such Awards will expire on such transaction at such time and on such conditions
as the Committee will determine. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the
contrary, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide that the vesting of
any or all Awards granted pursuant to this Plan will accelerate upon a
transaction described in this Section 18. If the Committee exercises such
discretion with respect to Options, such Options will become exercisable in full
prior to the consummation of such event at such time and on such conditions as
the Committee determines, and if such Options are not exercised prior to the
consummation of the corporate transaction, they shall terminate at such time as
determined by the Committee.

               18.2 Other Treatment of Awards. Subject to any greater rights
                    -------------------------
granted to Participants under the foregoing provisions of this Section 18, in
the event of the occurrence of any transaction described in Section 18.1, any
outstanding Awards will be treated as provided in the applicable agreement or
plan of merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation, or sale of assets.

               18.3 Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time
                    -----------------------------------
to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another
company, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other company or
otherwise, by either; (a) granting an Award under this Plan in substitution of
such other company's award; or (b) assuming such award as if it had been granted
under this Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Award
granted under this Plan.  Such substitution or assumption will be permissible if
the holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be
granted an Award under this Plan if the other company had applied the rules of
this Plan to such grant.  In the event the Company assumes an award granted by
another company, the terms and conditions of such award will remain unchanged
(except that the exercise price and the number and nature of Shares issuable
 ------
upon exercise of any such option will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to
Section 424(a) of the Code).  In the event the Company elects to grant a new
Option rather than assuming an existing option, such new Option may be granted
with a similarly adjusted Exercise Price.

          19.  ADOPTION AND STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL. This Plan will become
               ---------------------------------
effective on the date on which the registration statement filed by the Company
with the SEC under the Securities Act registering the initial public offering of
the Company's Common Stock is declared effective by the SEC (the "Effective
Date").  This Plan shall be approved by the stockholders of the Company
(excluding Shares issued pursuant to this Plan), consistent with applicable
laws, within twelve (12) months before or after the date this Plan is adopted by
the Board.  Upon the Effective Date, the Committee may grant Awards pursuant to
this Plan; provided, however, that: (a) no Option may be exercised prior to
           --------  -------
initial stockholder approval of this Plan; (b) no Option granted pursuant to an
increase in the number of Shares subject to this Plan approved by the Board will
be exercised prior to the time such increase has been approved by the
stockholders of the Company; (c) in the event that initial stockholder approval
is not obtained within the time period provided herein, all Awards granted
hereunder shall be cancelled, any Shares issued pursuant to any Awards shall be
cancelled and any purchase of Shares issued hereunder shall be rescinded; and
(d) in the event that stockholder approval of such increase is not obtained
within the time period provided herein, all Awards granted pursuant to such
increase will be cancelled, any Shares issued pursuant to any Award granted
pursuant to such increase will be cancelled, and any purchase of Shares pursuant
to such increase will be rescinded.

          20.  TERM OF PLAN/GOVERNING LAW. Unless earlier terminated as provided
               --------------------------
herein, this Plan will terminate ten (10) years from the date this Plan is
adopted by the Board or, if earlier, the date of stockholder approval.  This
Plan and all agreements thereunder shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California.

          21.  AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF PLAN. The Board may at any time
               --------------------------------
terminate or amend this Plan in any respect, including without limitation
amendment of any form of Award Agreement or instrument to be executed pursuant
to this Plan; provided, however, that the Board will not, without the approval
              --------  -------
of the stockholders of the Company, amend this Plan in any manner that requires
such stockholder approval.

          22.  NONEXCLUSIVITY OF THE PLAN. Neither the adoption of this Plan by
               --------------------------
the Board, the submission of this Plan to the stockholders of the Company for
approval, nor any provision of this Plan will be construed as creating any
limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such additional compensation
arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the
granting of stock options and bonuses otherwise than under this Plan, and such
arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific
cases.

Optionee shall in no event be entitled under this Option to purchase a number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock greater than the "Total Option Shares."

                   ------------------
schedule set forth in Section 2.1 hereof are "Vested Shares."  Shares that are

              2.3  Expiration.  This Option shall expire on the Expiration Date
                   ----------
set forth above and must be exercised, if at all, on or before the earlier of

              3.1  Termination for Any Reason Except Death, Disability or Cause.
                   ------------------------------------------------------------
If Optionee is Terminated for any reason except Optionee's death, Disability or
Cause, then this Option, to the extent (and only to the extent) that it is
vested in accordance with the schedule set forth in Section 2.1 hereof on the
Termination Date, may be exercised by Optionee no later than three (3) months
after the Termination Date, but in any event no later than the Expiration Date.

              3.2  Termination Because of Death or Disability.  If Optionee is
                   ------------------------------------------
Terminated because of death or Disability of Optionee (or the Optionee dies
within three (3) months after Termination other than for Cause or because of
Disability), then this Option, to the extent that it is vested in accordance

be exercised by Optionee (or Optionee's legal representative or authorized
assignee) no later than twelve (12) months after the Termination Date, but in
any event no later than the Expiration Date.  Any exercise after three months
after the Termination Date when the Termination is for any reason other than

other relationship with, the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company,
or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the
Company to terminate Optionee's employment or other relationship at any time,

         4.   Manner of Exercise.
              ------------------

              4.1    Stock Option Exercise Agreement.  To exercise this Option,

the Company an executed stock option exercise agreement in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit A, or in such other form as may be approved by the Company
          ---------
from time to time (the "Exercise Agreement"), which shall set forth, inter alia,
                                                                     ----- ----
Optionee's election to exercise this Option, the number of shares being
purchased, any restrictions imposed on the Shares and any representations,
warranties and agreements regarding Optionee's investment intent and access to

such person has the right to exercise this Option.

              4.2    Limitations on Exercise.  This Option may not be exercised
                     -----------------------
unless such exercise is in compliance with all applicable federal and state
securities laws, as they are in effect on the date of exercise.  This Option may
not be exercised as to fewer than 100 Shares unless it is exercised as to all
Shares as to which this Option is then exercisable.

                     -------
full payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares being purchased in cash (by

    (b)  by surrender of shares of the Company's Common Stock that either: (1)
         have been owned by Optionee for more than six (6) months and have been
         paid for within the meaning of SEC Rule 144 (and, if such shares were
         purchased from the Company by use of a promissory note, such note has
         been fully paid with respect to such shares); or (2) were obtained by
         Optionee in the open public market; and (3) are clear of all liens,
                                             ---
         claims, encumbrances or security interests;

    (c)  by waiver of compensation due or accrued to Optionee for services
         rendered;

    (d)  provided that a public market for the Company's stock exists:  (1)
         through a "same day sale" commitment from Optionee and a broker-dealer
         that is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (an
         "NASD Dealer") whereby Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise this
         Option and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased to pay for the
         Exercise Price and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon
         receipt of such Shares to forward the exercise price directly to the
         Company; or (2) through a "margin" commitment from Optionee and an NASD
                  --
         Dealer whereby Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise this Option and
         to pledge the Shares so purchased to the NASD Dealer in a margin
         account as security for a loan from the NASD Dealer in the amount of
         the Exercise Price, and whereby the

         NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward
         the Exercise Price directly to the Company;

    (f)  by any combination of the foregoing.

              4.4      Tax Withholding. Prior to the issuance of the Shares upon
                       ---------------
exercise of this Option, Optionee must pay or provide for any applicable federal
or state withholding obligations of the Company. If the Committee permits,
Optionee may provide for payment of withholding taxes upon exercise of this
Option by requesting that the Company retain Shares with a Fair Market Value
equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld. In such case, the
Company shall issue the net number of Shares to the Optionee by deducting the
Shares retained from the Shares issuable upon exercise.

              4.5      Issuance of Shares. Provided that the Exercise Agreement
                       ------------------
and payment are in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Company,
the Company shall issue the Shares registered in the name of Optionee,
Optionee's authorized assignee, or Optionee's legal representative, and shall
deliver certificates representing the Shares with the appropriate legends
affixed thereto.

         5.   Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO Shares.  To the extent
              -------------------------------------------------
this Option is an ISO, if Optionee sells or otherwise disposes of any of the
Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the later of (a) the date two
(2) years after the Date of Grant, and (b) the date one (1) year after transfer
of such Shares to Optionee upon exercise of this Option, then Optionee shall
immediately notify the Company in writing of such disposition.

         6.   Compliance with Laws and Regulations.  The exercise of this Option
              ------------------------------------
and the issuance and transfer of Shares shall be subject to compliance by the
Company and Optionee with all applicable requirements of federal and state
securities laws and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange on
which the Company's Common Stock may be listed at the time of such issuance or
transfer.  Optionee understands that the Company is under no obligation to
register or qualify the Shares with the SEC, any state securities commission or
any stock exchange to effect such compliance.

         7.   Nontransferability of Option.  This Option may not be transferred
              ----------------------------
in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and
may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by Optionee.  The terms of
this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, successors and
assigns of Optionee.

         8.   Tax Consequences.  Set forth below is a brief summary as of the

OF THE SHARES.

          8.1      Exercise of Incentive Stock Option.  To the extent this
                   ----------------------------------
Option qualifies as an ISO, there will be no regular federal income tax
liability upon the exercise of this Option, although the excess, if any, of the
fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price
will be treated as a tax preference item for federal income tax purposes and may
subject the Optionee to the alternative minimum tax in the year of exercise.

          8.2      Exercise of Nonqualified Stock Option.  To the extent this
                   -------------------------------------
Option does not qualify as an ISO, there may be a regular federal income tax
liability upon the exercise of this Option.  Optionee will be treated as having
received compensation income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) equal to the
excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise
over the Exercise Price.  The Company may be required to withhold from
Optionee's compensation or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable
taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this compensation income
at the time of exercise.

              8.3  Disposition of Shares.  The following tax consequences may
                   ---------------------
apply upon disposition of the Shares.

                   a.   Incentive Stock Options.  If the Shares are held for
                        -----------------------
more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer of the Shares
pursuant to the exercise of an ISO and are disposed of more than two (2) years
after the Date of Grant, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will be
treated as capital gain for federal income tax purposes.  If Shares purchased
under an ISO are disposed of within the applicable one (1) year or two (2) year
period, any gain realized on such disposition will be treated as compensation
income (taxable at ordinary income rates) to the extent of the excess, if any,
of the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise
Price.

                   b.   Nonqualified Stock Options.  If the Shares are held for
                        --------------------------
more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer of the Shares
pursuant to the exercise of an NQSO, any gain realized on disposition of the
Shares will be treated as long-term capital gain.

                   c.   Withholding.  The Company may be required to withhold
                        -----------
from Participant's compensation or collect from the Participant and pay to the
applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this
compensation income.

         9.   Privileges of Stock Ownership.  Optionee shall not have any of the
              -----------------------------
rights of a stockholder with respect to any Shares until the Shares are issued
to Optionee.

         10.  Interpretation.  Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this
              --------------
Agreement shall be submitted by Optionee or the Company to the Committee for
review.  The resolution of such a dispute by the Committee shall be final and
binding on the Company and Optionee.

         11.  Entire Agreement.  The Plan is incorporated herein by reference.

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

              4.1      Stock Option Exercise Agreement. To exercise this Option,
                       -------------------------------
Optionee (or in the case of exercise after Optionee's death, Optionee's
executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must deliver to
the Company an executed stock option exercise agreement in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit A, or in such other form as may be approved by the Company
          ---------
from time to time (the "Exercise Agreement"), which shall set forth, inter alia,
                                                                     ----- ----
Optionee's election to exercise this Option, the number of shares being
purchased, any restrictions imposed on the Shares and any representations,
warranties and agreements regarding Optionee's investment intent and access to
information as may be required by the Company to comply with applicable
securities laws. If someone other than Optionee exercises this Option, then such
person must submit documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company that such
person has the right to exercise this Option.

              4.2      Limitations on Exercise. This Option may not be exercised
                       -----------------------
unless such exercise is in compliance with all applicable federal and state
securities laws, as they are in effect on the date of exercise. This Option may
not be exercised as to fewer than 100 Shares unless it is exercised as to all
Shares as to which this Option is then exercisable.

              4.3      Payment. The Exercise Agreement shall be accompanied by
                       -------
full payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares being purchased in cash (by
check), or where permitted by law:

    (a)  by cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the Optionee;

         have been owned by Optionee for more than six (6) months and have been
         paid for within the meaning of SEC Rule 144 (and, if such shares were
         purchased from the Company by use of a promissory note, such note has
         been fully paid with respect to such shares); or (2) were obtained by
         Optionee in the open public market; and (3) are clear of all liens,
                                             ---
         claims, encumbrances or security interests;

                                                      1999 Equity Incentive Plan

    (c)  by waiver of compensation due or accrued to Optionee for services
         rendered;

    (d)  provided that a public market for the Company's stock exists:  (1)
         through a "same day sale" commitment from Optionee and a broker-dealer
         that is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (an
         "NASD Dealer") whereby Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise this
         Option and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased to pay for the
         Exercise Price and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon
         receipt of such Shares to forward the exercise price directly to the
         Company; or (2) through a "margin" commitment from Optionee and an NASD
                  --
         Dealer whereby Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise this Option and
         to pledge the Shares so purchased to the NASD Dealer in a margin
         account as security for a loan from the NASD Dealer in the amount of
         the Exercise Price, and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits
         upon receipt of such Shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to
         the Company;

    (f)  by any combination of the foregoing.

            4.4      Tax Withholding.  Prior to the issuance of the Shares upon
                     ---------------
exercise of this Option, Optionee must pay or provide for any applicable federal
or state withholding obligations of the Company.  If the Committee permits,
Optionee may provide for payment of withholding taxes upon exercise of this
Option by requesting that the Company retain Shares with a Fair Market Value
equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld.  In such case, the
Company shall issue the net number of Shares to the Optionee by deducting the
Shares retained from the Shares issuable upon exercise.

            4.5      Issuance of Shares. Provided that the Exercise Agreement
                     ------------------
and payment are in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Company,
the Company shall issue the Shares registered in the name of Optionee,
Optionee's authorized assignee, or Optionee's legal representative, and shall
deliver certificates representing the Shares with the appropriate legends
affixed thereto.

         5.   Compliance with Laws and Regulations.  The exercise of this Option
              ------------------------------------
and the issuance and transfer of Shares shall be subject to compliance by the
Company and Optionee with all applicable requirements of federal and state
securities laws and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange on
which the Company's Common Stock may be listed at the time of such issuance or
transfer.  Optionee understands that the Company is under no obligation to
register or qualify the Shares with the SEC, any state securities commission or
any stock exchange to effect such compliance.

         6.   Nontransferability of Option.  This Option may not be transferred
              ----------------------------
in any manner other than under the terms and conditions of the Plan or by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution and may be exercised during the
lifetime of Optionee only by Optionee.  The

terms of this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators,
successors and assigns of Optionee.

         7.   Tax Consequences.  Set forth below is a brief summary as of the
              ----------------
date the Board adopted the Plan of some of the federal tax consequences of
exercise of this Option and disposition of the Shares.  THIS SUMMARY IS
NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISOR BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING
OF THE SHARES.

              7.1      Exercise of Nonqualified Stock Option. To the extent this
                       -------------------------------------
Option does not qualify as an ISO, there may be a regular federal income tax
liability upon the exercise of this Option. Optionee will be treated as having
received compensation income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) equal to the
excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise
over the Exercise Price. The Company may be required to withhold from Optionee's
compensation or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable taxing
authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this compensation income at the
time of exercise.

              7.2      Disposition of Shares. The following tax consequences may
                       ---------------------
apply upon disposition of the Shares.

                       a.       Nonqualified Stock Options. If the Shares are
                                --------------------------
held for more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer of the
Shares pursuant to the exercise of an NQSO, any gain realized on disposition of
the Shares will be treated as long-term capital gain.

                       b.       Withholding. The Company may be required to
                                ------------
withhold from Optionee's compensation or collect from the Optionee and pay to
the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this
compensation income.

         8.   Privileges of Stock Ownership.  Optionee shall not have any of the
              -----------------------------
rights of a stockholder with respect to any Shares until the Shares are issued
to Optionee.

         9.   Interpretation.  Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this
              --------------
Agreement shall be submitted by Optionee or the Company to the Committee for
review.  The resolution of such a dispute by the Committee shall be final and
binding on the Company and Optionee.

         10.  Entire Agreement.  The Plan is incorporated herein by reference.
              ----------------
This Agreement and the Plan and the Exercise Agreement constitute the entire
agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersede all prior understandings and agreements with respect
to such subject matter.

         11.  Notices.  Any notice required to be given or delivered to the
              -------
Company under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to
the Corporate Secretary of the Company at its principal corporate offices.  Any
notice required to be given or delivered to

States mail by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested); one (1)

         12.  Successors and Assigns.  The Company may assign any of its rights
              ----------------------
under this Agreement.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company.  Subject to the
restrictions on transfer set forth herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon
Optionee and Optionee's heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives,
successors and assigns.

         13.  Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
              -------------
in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California, without regard
to that body of law pertaining to choice of law or conflict of law.

         14.  Acceptance.  Optionee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the
              ----------
Plan and this Agreement.  Optionee has read and understands the terms and
provisions thereof, and accepts this Option subject to all the terms and
conditions of the Plan and this Agreement.  Optionee acknowledges that there may
be adverse tax consequences upon exercise of this Option or disposition of the
Shares and that the Company has advised Optionee to consult a tax advisor prior
to such exercise or disposition.

                               INTERWOVEN, INC.
                       1999 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

                           As Adopted July 22, 1999



     1.   Establishment of Plan. Interwoven, Inc. (the "Company") proposes to
grant options for purchase of the Company's Common Stock to eligible employees
of the Company and its Participating Subsidiaries (as hereinafter defined)
pursuant to this Employee Stock Purchase Plan (this "Plan"). For purposes of
this Plan, "Parent Corporation" and "Subsidiary" shall have the same meanings as
"parent corporation" and "subsidiary corporation" in Sections 424(e) and 424(f),
respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
"Participating Subsidiaries" are Parent Corporations or Subsidiaries that the
Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") designates from time to time as
corporations that shall participate in this Plan. The Company intends this Plan
to qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under Section 423 of the Code
(including any amendments to or replacements of such Section), and this Plan
shall be so construed. Any term not expressly defined in this Plan but defined
for purposes of Section 423 of the Code shall have the same definition herein. A
total of 300,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock is reserved for issuance
under this Plan. In addition, on each January 1, the aggregate number of shares
of the Company's Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be
increased automatically by a number of shares equal to 1% of the total number of
outstanding shares of the Company Common Stock on the immediately preceding
December 31; provided that the aggregate number of shares issued over the term
             --------
of this Plan shall not exceed 3,000,000 shares. Such number shall be subject to
adjustments effected in accordance with Section 14 of this Plan.

     2.   Purpose. The purpose of this Plan is to provide eligible employees of
the Company and Participating Subsidiaries with a convenient means of acquiring
an equity interest in the Company through payroll deductions, to enhance such
employees' sense of participation in the affairs of the Company and
Participating Subsidiaries, and to provide an incentive for continued
employment.

     3.   Administration. This Plan shall be administered by the Compensation
Committee of the Board (the "Committee"). Subject to the provisions of this Plan
and the limitations of Section 423 of the Code or any successor provision in the
Code, all questions of interpretation or application of this Plan shall be
determined by the Committee and its decisions shall be final and binding upon
all participants. Members of the Committee shall receive no compensation for
their services in connection with the administration of this Plan, other than
standard fees as established from time to time by the Board for services
rendered by Board members serving on Board committees. All expenses incurred in
connection with the administration of this Plan shall be paid by the Company.

     4.   Eligibility. Any employee of the Company or the Participating
Subsidiaries is eligible to participate in an Offering Period (as hereinafter
defined) under this Plan except the following:

          (a) employees who are not employed by the Company or a Participating
Subsidiary (10) days before the beginning of such Offering Period, except that
employees who are employed on the Effective Date of the Registration Statement
filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") registering the
initial public offering of the Company's Common Stock shall be eligible to
participate in the first Offering Period under the Plan;

          (b) employees who are customarily employed for twenty (20) hours or
less per week;

          (c) employees who are customarily employed for five (5) months or less
in a calendar year;

          (d) employees who, together with any other person whose stock would be
attributed to such employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code, own stock or
hold options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total
combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or any of
its Participating Subsidiaries or who, as a result of being granted an option
under this Plan with respect to such Offering Period, would own stock or hold
options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total
combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or any of
its Participating Subsidiaries; and
<PAGE>

          (e) individuals who provide services to the Company or any of its
Participating Subsidiaries as independent contractors who are reclassified as
common law employees for any reason except for federal income and employment tax
                                    ------ ---
purposes.

     5.   Offering Dates. The offering periods of this Plan (each, an "Offering
Period") shall be of twenty-four (24) months duration commencing on February 1
and August 1 of each year and ending on January 31 and July 31 of each year;
provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the first such Offering
- --------  -------
Period shall commence on the first business day on which price quotations for
the Company's Common Stock are available on the Nasdaq National Market (the
"First Offering Date") and shall end on July 31, 2001. Except for the first
Offering Period, each Offering Period shall consist of four (4) six month
purchase periods (individually, a "Purchase Period") during which payroll
deductions of the participants are accumulated under this Plan. The first
Offering Period shall consist of no more than five and no fewer than three
Purchase Periods, any of which may be greater or less than six months as
determined by the Committee. The first business day of each Offering Period is
referred to as the "Offering Date". The last business day of each Purchase
Period is referred to as the "Purchase Date". The Committee shall have the power
to change the duration of Offering Periods with respect to offerings without
stockholder approval if such change is announced at least fifteen (15) days
prior to the scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period to be affected.

     6.   Participation in this Plan. Eligible employees may become participants
in an Offering Period under this Plan on the first Offering Date after
satisfying the eligibility requirements by delivering a subscription agreement
to the Company's treasury department (the "Treasury Department") not later than
five (5) days before such Offering Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Committee may set a later time for filing the subscription agreement authorizing
payroll deductions for all eligible employees with respect to a given Offering
Period. An eligible employee who does not deliver a subscription agreement to
the Treasury Department by such date after becoming eligible to participate in
such Offering Period shall not participate in that Offering Period or any
subsequent Offering Period unless such employee enrolls in this Plan by filing a
subscription agreement with the Treasury Department not later than five (5) days
preceding a subsequent Offering Date. Once an employee becomes a participant in
an Offering Period, such employee will automatically participate in the Offering
Period commencing immediately following the last day of the prior Offering
Period unless the employee withdraws or is deemed to withdraw from this Plan or
terminates further participation in the Offering Period as set forth in Section
11 below. Such participant is not required to file any additional subscription
agreement in order to continue participation in this Plan.

     7.   Grant of Option on Enrollment. Enrollment by an eligible employee in
this Plan with respect to an Offering Period will constitute the grant (as of
the Offering Date) by the Company to such employee of an option to purchase on
the Purchase Date up to that number of shares of Common Stock of the Company
determined by dividing (a) the amount accumulated in such employee's payroll
deduction account during such Purchase Period by (b) the lower of (i) eighty-
five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common
Stock on the Offering Date (but in no event less than the par value of a share
of the Company's Common Stock), or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair
market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Purchase Date (but
in no event less than the par value of a share of the Company's Common Stock),
provided, however, that the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock
- --------  -------
subject to any option granted pursuant to this Plan shall not exceed the lesser
of (x) the maximum number of shares set by the Committee pursuant to Section
10(c) below with respect to the applicable Purchase Date, or (y) the maximum
number of shares which may be purchased pursuant to Section 10(b) below with
respect to the applicable Purchase Date. The fair market value of a share of the
Company's Common Stock shall be determined as provided in Section 8 below.

     8.   Purchase Price. The purchase price per share at which a share of
Common Stock will be sold in any Offering Period shall be eighty-five percent
(85%) of the lesser of:

          (a) The fair market value on the Offering Date; or

          (b) The fair market value on the Purchase Date.

                                       2
<PAGE>

     For purposes of this Plan, the term "Fair Market Value" means, as of
any date, the value of a share of the Company's Common Stock determined as
follows:

          (a) if such Common Stock is then quoted on the Nasdaq National Market,
              its closing price on the Nasdaq National Market on the date of
              determination as reported in The Wall Street Journal;
                                           -----------------------

          (b) if such Common Stock is publicly traded and is then listed on a
              national securities exchange, its closing price on the date of
              determination on the principal national securities exchange on
              which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading as
              reported in The Wall Street Journal;
                          -----------------------

          (c) if such Common Stock is publicly traded but is not quoted on the
              Nasdaq National Market nor listed or admitted to trading on a
              national securities exchange, the average of the closing bid and
              asked prices on the date of determination as reported in The Wall
                                                                       --------
              Street Journal; or
              --------------

          (d) if none of the foregoing is applicable, by the Board in good
              faith, which in the case of the First Offering Date will be the
              price per share at which shares of the Company's Common Stock are
              initially offered for sale to the public by the Company's
              underwriters in the initial public offering of the Company's
              Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement filed with the
              SEC under the Securities Act.

     9.   Payment Of Purchase Price; Changes In Payroll Deductions; Issuance Of
Shares.

          (a) The purchase price of the shares is accumulated by regular payroll
deductions made during each Offering Period. The deductions are made as a
percentage of the participant's compensation in one percent (1%) increments not
less than two percent (2%), nor greater than ten percent (10%) or such lower
limit set by the Committee. Compensation shall mean all W-2 cash compensation,
including, but not limited to, base salary, wages, commissions, overtime, shift
premiums and bonuses, plus draws against commissions, provided, however, that
                                                      --------  -------
for purposes of determining a participant's compensation, any election by such
participant to reduce his or her regular cash remuneration under Sections 125 or
401(k) of the Code shall be treated as if the participant did not make such
election. Payroll deductions shall commence on the first payday of the Offering
Period and shall continue to the end of the Offering Period unless sooner
altered or terminated as provided in this Plan.

          (b) A participant may increase or decrease the rate of payroll
deductions during an Offering Period by filing with the Treasury Department a
new authorization for payroll deductions, in which case the new rate shall
become effective for the next payroll period commencing more than fifteen (15)
days after the Treasury Department's receipt of the authorization and shall
continue for the remainder of the Offering Period unless changed as described
below. Such change in the rate of payroll deductions may be made at any time
during an Offering Period, but not more than one (1) change may be made
effective during any Purchase Period. A participant may increase or decrease the
rate of payroll deductions for any subsequent Offering Period by filing with the
Treasury Department a new authorization for payroll deductions not later than
fifteen (15) days before the beginning of such Offering Period.

          (c) A participant may reduce his or her payroll deduction percentage
to zero during an Offering Period by filing with the Treasury Department a
request for cessation of payroll deductions. Such reduction shall be effective
beginning with the next payroll period commencing more than fifteen (15) days
after the Treasury Department's receipt of the request and no further payroll
deductions will be made for the duration of the Offering Period. Payroll
deductions credited to the participant's account prior to the effective date of
the request shall be used to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company in
accordance with Section (e) below. A participant may not resume making payroll
deductions during the Offering Period in which he or she reduced his or her
payroll deductions to zero.

                                       3
<PAGE>

          (d) All payroll deductions made for a participant are credited to his
or her account under this Plan and are deposited with the general funds of the
Company. No interest accrues on the payroll deductions. All payroll deductions
received or held by the Company may be used by the Company for any corporate
purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll
deductions.

          (e) On each Purchase Date, so long as this Plan remains in effect and
provided that the participant has not submitted a signed and completed
withdrawal form before that date which notifies the Company that the participant
wishes to withdraw from that Offering Period under this Plan and have all
payroll deductions accumulated in the account maintained on behalf of the
participant as of that date returned to the participant, the Company shall apply
the funds then in the participant's account to the purchase of whole shares of
Common Stock reserved under the option granted to such participant with respect
to the Offering Period to the extent that such option is exercisable on the
Purchase Date. The purchase price per share shall be as specified in Section 8
of this Plan. Any cash remaining in a participant's account after such purchase
of shares shall be refunded to such participant in cash, without interest;
provided, however that any amount remaining in such participant's account on a
Purchase Date which is less than the amount necessary to purchase a full share
of Common Stock of the Company shall be carried forward, without interest, into
the next Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be. In the event
that this Plan has been oversubscribed, all funds not used to purchase shares on
the Purchase Date shall be returned to the participant, without interest. No
Common Stock shall be purchased on a Purchase Date on behalf of any employee
whose participation in this Plan has terminated prior to such Purchase Date.

          (f) As promptly as practicable after the Purchase Date, the Company
shall issue shares for the participant's benefit representing the shares
purchased upon exercise of his or her option.

          (g) During a participant's lifetime, his or her option to purchase
shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her. The participant will have no
interest or voting right in shares covered by his or her option until such
option has been exercised.

     10.  Limitations on Shares to be Purchased.

          (a) No participant shall be entitled to purchase stock under this Plan
at a rate which, when aggregated with his or her rights to purchase stock under
all other employee stock purchase plans of the Company or any Subsidiary,
exceeds $25,000 in fair market value, determined as of the Offering Date (or
such other limit as may be imposed by the Code) for each calendar year in which
the employee participates in this Plan. The Company shall automatically suspend
the payroll deductions of any participant as necessary to enforce such limit
provided that when the Company automatically resumes such payroll deductions,
the Company must apply the rate in effect immediately prior to such suspension.

          (b) No more than two hundred percent (200%) of the number of shares
determined by using eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a
share of the Company's Common Stock on the Offering Date as the denominator may
be purchased by a participant on any single Purchase Date.

          (c) No participant shall be entitled to purchase more than the Maximum
Share Amount (as defined below) on any single Purchase Date. Not less than
thirty (30) days prior to the commencement of any Offering Period, the Committee
may, in its sole discretion, set a maximum number of shares which may be
purchased by any employee at any single Purchase Date (hereinafter the "Maximum
Share Amount"). Until otherwise determined by the Committee, there shall be no
Maximum Share Amount. In no event shall the Maximum Share Amount exceed the
amounts permitted under Section 10(b) above. If a new Maximum Share Amount is
set, then all participants must be notified of such Maximum Share Amount prior
to the commencement of the next Offering Period. The Maximum Share Amount shall
continue to apply with respect to all succeeding Purchase Dates and Offering
Periods unless revised by the Committee as set forth above.

          (d) If the number of shares to be purchased on a Purchase Date by all
employees participating in this Plan exceeds the number of shares then available
for issuance under this Plan, then the Company will make a pro rata allocation
of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as shall be reasonably
practicable and as the Com-

                                       4
<PAGE>

mittee shall determine to be equitable. In such event, the Company shall give
written notice of such reduction of the number of shares to be purchased under a
participant's option to each participant affected.

          (e) Any payroll deductions accumulated in a participant's account
which are not used to purchase stock due to the limitations in this Section 10
shall be returned to the participant as soon as practicable after the end of the
applicable Purchase Period, without interest.

     11.  Withdrawal.

          (a) Each participant may withdraw from an Offering Period under this
Plan by signing and delivering to the Treasury Department a written notice to
that effect on a form provided for such purpose. Such withdrawal may be elected
at any time at least fifteen (15) days prior to the end of an Offering Period.

          (b) Upon withdrawal from this Plan, the accumulated payroll deductions
shall be returned to the withdrawn participant, without interest, and his or her
interest in this Plan shall terminate. In the event a participant voluntarily
elects to withdraw from this Plan, he or she may not resume his or her
participation in this Plan during the same Offering Period, but he or she may
participate in any Offering Period under this Plan which commences on a date
subsequent to such withdrawal by filing a new authorization for payroll
deductions in the same manner as set forth in Section 6 above for initial
participation in this Plan.

          (c) If the Fair Market Value on the first day of the current Offering
Period in which a participant is enrolled is higher than the Fair Market Value
on the first day of any subsequent Offering Period, the Company will
automatically enroll such participant in the subsequent Offering Period. Any
funds accumulated in a participant's account prior to the first day of such
subsequent Offering Period will be applied to the purchase of shares on the
Purchase Date immediately prior to the first day of such subsequent Offering
Period, if any.

     12.  Termination of Employment. Termination of a participant's employment
for any reason, including retirement, death or the failure of a participant to
remain an eligible employee of the Company or of a Participating Subsidiary,
immediately terminates his or her participation in this Plan. In such event, the
payroll deductions credited to the participant's account will be returned to him
or her or, in the case of his or her death, to his or her legal representative,
without interest. For purposes of this Section 12, an employee will not be
deemed to have terminated employment or failed to remain in the continuous
employ of the Company or of a Participating Subsidiary in the case of sick
leave, military leave, or any other leave of absence approved by the Board;
provided that such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days or
- --------
reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or
statute.

     13.  Return of Payroll Deductions. In the event a participant's interest in
this Plan is terminated by withdrawal, termination of employment or otherwise,
or in the event this Plan is terminated by the Board, the Company shall deliver
to the participant all payroll deductions credited to such participant's
account. No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions of a participant in
this Plan.

     14.  Capital Changes. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of
the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under
this Plan which has not yet been exercised and the number of shares of Common
Stock which have been authorized for issuance under this Plan but have not yet
been placed under option (collectively, the "Reserves"), as well as the price
per share of Common Stock covered by each option under this Plan which has not
yet been exercised, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or
decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the
Company resulting from a stock split or the payment of a stock dividend (but
only on the Common Stock) or any other increase or decrease in the number of
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of any
consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any
                              --------  -------
convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been "effected
without receipt of consideration". Such adjustment shall be made by the
Committee, whose determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as
expressly provided herein, no issue by the Company of shares of stock of any
class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall
affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the
number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an option.

                                       5
<PAGE>

    In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the
Offering Period will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such
proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Committee. The Committee may,
in the exercise of its sole discretion in such instances, declare that this Plan
shall terminate as of a date fixed by the Committee and give each participant
the right to purchase shares under this Plan prior to such termination. In the
event of (i) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving
corporation (other than a merger or consolidation with a wholly-owned
subsidiary, a reincorporation of the Company in a different jurisdiction, or
other transaction in which there is no substantial change in the stockholders of
the Company or their relative stock holdings and the options under this Plan are
assumed, converted or replaced by the successor corporation, which assumption
will be binding on all participants), (ii) a merger in which the Company is the
surviving corporation but after which the stockholders of the Company
immediately prior to such merger (other than any stockholder that merges, or
which owns or controls another corporation that merges, with the Company in such
merger) cease to own their shares or other equity interest in the Company, (iii)
the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or (iv) the
acquisition, sale, or transfer of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the
Company by tender offer or similar transaction, the Plan will continue with
regard to Offering Periods that commenced prior to the closing of the proposed
transaction and shares will be purchased based on the Fair Market Value of the
surviving corporation's stock on each Purchase Date, unless otherwise provided
by the Committee consistent with pooling of interests accounting treatment.

    The Committee may, if it so determines in the exercise of its sole
discretion, also make provision for adjusting the Reserves, as well as the price
per share of Common Stock covered by each outstanding option, in the event that
the Company effects one or more reorganizations, recapitalizations, rights
offerings or other increases or reductions of shares of its outstanding Common
Stock, or in the event of the Company being consolidated with or merged into any
other corporation.

     15.  Nonassignability. Neither payroll deductions credited to a
participant's account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or
to receive shares under this Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or
otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and
distribution or as provided in Section 22 below) by the participant. Any such
attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be void and
without effect.

     16.  Reports. Individual accounts will be maintained for each participant
in this Plan. Each participant shall receive promptly after the end of each
Purchase Period a report of his or her account setting forth the total payroll
deductions accumulated, the number of shares purchased, the per share price
thereof and the remaining cash balance, if any, carried forward to the next
Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be.

     17.  Notice of Disposition. Each participant shall notify the Company in
writing if the participant disposes of any of the shares purchased in any
Offering Period pursuant to this Plan if such disposition occurs within two (2)
years from the Offering Date or within one (1) year from the Purchase Date on
which such shares were purchased (the "Notice Period"). The Company may, at any
time during the Notice Period, place a legend or legends on any certificate
representing shares acquired pursuant to this Plan requesting the Company's
transfer agent to notify the Company of any transfer of the shares. The
obligation of the participant to provide such notice shall continue
notwithstanding the placement of any such legend on the certificates.

     18.  No Rights to Continued Employment. Neither this Plan nor the grant of
any option hereunder shall confer any right on any employee to remain in the
employ of the Company or any Participating Subsidiary, or restrict the right of
the Company or any Participating Subsidiary to terminate such employee's
employment.

     19.  Equal Rights And Privileges. All eligible employees shall have equal
rights and privileges with respect to this Plan so that this Plan qualifies as
an "employee stock purchase plan" within the meaning of Section 423 or any
successor provision of the Code and the related regulations. Any provision of
this Plan which is inconsistent with Section 423 or any successor provision of
the Code shall, without further act or amendment by the Company, the Committee
or the Board, be reformed to comply with the requirements of Section 423. This
Section 19 shall take precedence over all other provisions in this Plan.

     20.  Notices. All notices or other communications by a participant to the
Company under or in connection with this Plan shall be deemed to have been duly
given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by
the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

     21.  Term; Stockholder Approval. After this Plan is adopted by the Board,
this Plan will become effective on the First Offering Date (as defined above).
This Plan shall be approved by the stockholders of the Company, in any manner
permitted by applicable corporate law, within twelve (12) months before or after
the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. No purchase of shares pursuant to
this Plan shall occur prior to such stockholder approval. This Plan shall
continue until the earlier to occur of (a) termination of this Plan by the Board
(which termination may be effected by the Board at any time), (b) issuance of
all of the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under this Plan, or (c)
ten (10) years from the adoption of this Plan by the Board.

     22.  Designation of Beneficiary.

          (a) A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who
is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant's account under
this Plan in the event of such participant's death subsequent to the end of an
Purchase Period but prior to delivery to him of such shares and cash. In
addition, a participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is
to receive any cash from the participant's account under this Plan in the event
of such participant's death prior to a Purchase Date.

          (b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the participant
at any time by written notice. In the event of the death of a participant and in
the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under this Plan who is living at
the time of such participant's death, the Company shall deliver such shares or
cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the participant, or if no
such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the
Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares or cash to the
spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the participant, or if
no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other
person as the Company may designate.

     23.  Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares; Limitation on Sale of Shares.
Shares shall not be issued with respect to an option unless the exercise of such
option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto shall
comply with all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including,
without limitation, the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements
of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the shares may
then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the
Company with respect to such compliance.

     24.  Applicable Law. The Plan shall be governed by the substantive laws
(excluding the conflict of laws rules) of the State of California.

     25.  Amendment or Termination of this Plan. The Board may at any time
amend, terminate or extend the term of this Plan, except that any such
termination cannot affect options previously granted under this Plan, nor may
any amendment make any change in an option previously granted which would
adversely affect the right of any participant, nor may any amendment be made
without approval of the stockholders of the Company obtained in accordance with
Section 21 above within twelve (12) months of the adoption of such amendment (or
earlier if required by Section 21) if such amendment would:

     (a) increase the number of shares that may be issued under this Plan; or

     (b) change the designation of the employees (or class of employees)
eligible for participation in this Plan.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may make such amendments to the
Plan as the Board determines to be advisable, if the continuation of the Plan or
any Offering Period would result in financial accounting treatment for the Plan
that is different from the financial accounting treatment in effect on the date
this Plan is adopted by the Board.

   Technical Support Fees on a per use or installation basis, provided that
   there shall be a requirement that such Fees shall be applicable to at least
   one instance of an Operational deployment in cases where a Major Business

   Software and does not yet otherwise have an Operational deployment in place
   and Customer seeks the benefit of Software Updates and/or Technical Support
   Services.
   "Operational" shall mean, under the Enterprise License, for the Software

   from one platform generation to the next generation.
   Software Updates shall further include the migration by Interwoven of
   Software from one localized language (e.g.: U.S. English) to any other
   localized language (e.g.: German) to the extent that Interwoven has made
   such migration available to other licensed users of the Software. Software
   Updates shall further include, but not be limited to, such new releases of
   functionality (whether marketed separately or as part of a more
   comprehensive release) as outlined on Schedule 3 of this Agreement.
   For Software that connects to and stores information on a database and

   have the right to migrate from a license of one database option to another
   Customer database license option at no charge. The databases for which this
   option applies are Informix, Sybase, MS SQLA Server or Oracle. There shall
   be no new warranty period on the new Software.
   If Interwoven removes a feature or function from the Software that existed
   as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, or which resulted from a
   Software Update during the term of this Agreement, and Interwoven then
   distributes the removed feature or function as a stand-alone or other
   product, then such new stand alone product shall be deemed to be a Software
   Update for purposes of this Agreement. In such instances when the removed
   feature or function is enhanced with considerably different functionality,
   then such new stand alone product shall be considered a new product and
   will not be considered a Software Update.
   If Interwoven develops other software products with incremental
   improvements to the Software with similar functionality and Interwoven then
   distributes the other software product, then such other software product
   will be considered a Software Update. However, if Interwoven develops,
   other software products outside the Content Management space, it shall be
   at Interwoven's discretion as to whether or not the other software products
   are distributed as a Software Update.
   Interwoven expressly acknowledges and agrees that it is Customer's intent,
   by virtue of this Agreement, to license a comprehensive Content Management
   solution for Customer's Major Business Units globally, and the parties
   acknowledge that since Content Management solutions are still evolving
   Interwoven has a material obligation to provide Customer with all such
   evolving Content Management solutions under Customer's right to Software
   Update Services.
   "Software Update Services" shall mean the services provided under

      understood in the information processing industry. Specifically,
      Interwoven warrants that the Software contains no code or instructions
      (including any code or instructions provided by third parties) that may
      be used to access, modify, delete, damage, or disable any computer,
      associated equipment, computer programs, data files or other

    TO THE OMITTED PORTIONS.


<PAGE>

      maintenance and the like shall be Year 2000 Compliant at the time of
      delivery and at all times thereafter and in all subsequent updates or
      revisions of any kind. For purposes of this Agreement, Year 2000
      Compliant means that (1) the Software and services accurately process,
      provide and/or receive date data (including without limitation
      calculating, comparing, and sequencing), within, from, into, and between
      centuries (including without limitation the twentieth and twenty-first
      centuries), including leap year calculations, and (2) neither the
      performance nor the functionality of Software and services will be
      affected by dates prior to, on, after, or spanning January 1, 2000, so
      long as all other hardware, software and firmware working in combination
      with Software is also Year 2000 Compliant.
      The Software and services shall include, without limitation, date data
      century recognition, calculations that accommodate same century and
      multi-century formulae and date values, and date data interface values
      that reflect the century. In particular, but without limitation, (i) no
      value for current date will cause any error, interruption, or decreased
      performance in the operation of such Software and services, (ii) all
      manipulations of date-related data (including, but not limited to,
      calculating, comparing, sequencing, processing, and outputting) will
      produce correct results for all valid dates, including when used in
      combination with other products, (iii) date elements in interfaces and
      data storage will specify the correct century to eliminate date
      ambiguity without human intervention, including Leap Year calculations,
      (iv) where any date element is represented without a century, the
      correct century will be unambiguous for all manipulations involving that
      element, (v) authorization codes, passwords, and zaps (purge functions)
      should function normally and in the same manner prior to, on, after and
      spanning January 1, 2000, including, without limitation, the manner in
      which they function with respect to expiration dates and CPU serial
      numbers.

      If at any time the Software and/or services are found not to be Year
      2000 Compliant, then Interwoven shall, at no additional charge to
      Customer and by no later than thirty (30) days after receipt of a report
      of noncompliance, render the Software and/or services Year 2000
      Compliant, and shall thereafter distribute such corrected version to
      Customer, and, at Customer's option, install such corrected version free
      of charge. In doing so, Interwoven shall not require Customer to make
      any changes to the Software and/or services except to install or have
      installed any changes provided by Interwoven, shall not require or cause
      to be made any changes to Customer's data unless Customer in its sole
      discretion approves such changes, and shall not require or cause to be
      made any changes to any other product or service that Customer uses in
      its business operations.
      In addition to Interwoven's obligations as set forth above, Interwoven's
      liability as to the remedy of any deficiencies of this provision shall
      be to repair or replace the non-conforming Software and/or service.

      representation and warranty [*].

   without the consent of any other person. Interwoven shall indemnify and
   hold Customer harmless against and shall handle and defend against any
   claim, suit, or other proceeding brought against Customer based on an
   allegation that the Software or any elements thereof, or the use of any
   Software furnished by Interwoven pursuant to this Agreement constitutes a
   violation or infringement of a worldwide copyright, trade secret,
   proprietary information right or U.S. patent provided that Interwoven is
   notified promptly in writing of such allegation, suit, or proceeding and
   given full and complete authority, information and assistance (at
   Interwoven's expense) for the defense of same. Interwoven shall pay without
   limitation all actual damages and costs incurred by Customer with respect
   to such suits or proceedings, but Interwoven shall not be responsible for
   any compromise made by Customer or its agents without Interwoven's consent.
   Interwoven shall have no liability for any claim of infringement based on
   alterations or modifications of the Software, unless authorized and under
   the direction of Interwoven, or the combination, operation or use of any
   Software furnished under this Agreement with programs or data or hardware
   not furnished by Interwoven, if such infringement would have been avoided
   by the use of the Software without

                                       6

[*] CERTAIN INFORMATION IN THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY
    WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT

<PAGE>

   such programs or data or hardware. If such Software is held by a court of
   competent jurisdiction to constitute infringement, and its use is enjoined,
   Interwoven shall, at its own expense without limitation, either promptly
   procure the right for continued use of such Software by Customer, or, if
   the performance thereof will not thereby be materially adversely affected
   promptly replace or modify such product(s) so that it becomes non-
   infringing. If neither of the actions specified for Interwoven in the
   preceding sentence is commercially feasible, then as a last resort,
   Interwoven shall accept return of such Software and refund to Customer all
   Fees paid by Customer for such Software, plus any unused Software Update
   and/or Technical Support Fees paid for the Software. During the pendency of
   any claim against Interwoven or Customer with respect to Interwoven's
   ownership or authority, Customer may withhold payment of any sum otherwise
   required to be paid hereunder.

11.LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.  EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR IN THE INDEMNIFICATION
   -----------------------

   INJURY (INCLUDING DEATH) AND DAMAGES TO REAL PROPERTY AND TANGIBLE PERSONAL
   PROPERTY, INTERWOVEN'S LIABILITY FOR DIRECT DAMAGES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT
   SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT PAID OR IS PAYABLE BY
   CUSTOMER TO INTERWOVEN UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR THE SOFTWARE OR THE
   SERVICES AS TO WHICH THE CLAIM AROSE. INTERWOVEN SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR
   DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTIAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING
   BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST DATA OR LOST PROFITS, HOWEVER ARISING, EVEN IF IT
   HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR FOR ANY SIMILAR
   CLAIM AGAINST CUSTOMER BY ANY OTHER PARTY. THE PARTIES AGREE TO THE
   ALLOCATION OF LIABILITY RISK, WHICH IS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION. SOME
   STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR
   CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES; THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY.
12.TITLE; OWNERSHIP; EQUITABLE RELIEF.  Interwoven, or its suppliers or
   ----------------------------------
   licensors, retains title to all portions of the Software and any full or
   partial copies thereof. Except as provided under this Agreement, no right,
   title or interest to the Software is transferred to Customer. Each party
   acknowledges that any breach of its obligations with respect to the
   proprietary rights of the other party may cause such other party
   irreparable injury, for which there may be inadequate remedy at law and,
   therefore, such other party will be entitled to equitable relief in
   addition to all other rights and remedies available to it.

   ---------------
   Information in confidence for the term of this Agreement or five (5) years

   the disclosing party, disclosed in writing, orally or by access to the
   disclosing party's premises. The parties further agree not to make the
   other party's Confidential Information in any form available to third
   parties, other than employees on a need to know basis and consultants under
   nondisclosure agreements, who are not competitors of the disclosing party.
   The receiving party is liable for all misuse by consultants of disclosing
   party's Confidential Information, or for the use of the disclosing party's
   Confidential Information for any purpose not contemplated by this
   Agreement. Confidential Information does not include that which: (i) is in
   the receiving party's possession at the time of disclosure; (ii) is or
   becomes part of the public knowledge or literature, not as a result of any
   action or inaction of the receiving party; (iii) is approved for release by
   written authorization of the disclosing party or (iv) is independently
   developed by the receiving party without access to the Confidential
   Information. In the event the receiving party is required to disclose
   Confidential Information pursuant to a judicial or governmental order, such
   party will promptly notify the other party to allow intervention in
   response to such order.
14.TERM; TERMINATION.
   -----------------
   A. Term.  The term of the license grant is perpetual unless terminated
      ----
      pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The terms for the initial
      Technical Support Services and Software Update Services are specified on
      Schedule 1. Subsequent optional renewal of Technical Support Services
      and/or Software Update Services term(s) will commence at the expiration
      of the prior term and continue for one (1) year terms thereafter, unless
      terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
   B. Termination:
      -----------
      1. Convenience.  Customer may terminate the Agreement and/or any Software
         -----------

         Interwoven; however, Interwoven has no obligation to return license
         or initial Technical Support Services and Software Update Services
         Fees to Customer. With the exception of the initial Technical Support
         Services and Software Update Services Fees, Customer may terminate
         any subsequent Technical Support Services and Software Update

         Interwoven. Customer shall be responsible for Technical Support
         Services and Software Update Services Fees through the effective date
         of termination and shall receive a pro rata refund of any unused
         prepaid Technical Support Services and Software Update Services Fees,
         excluding the initial Technical Support Services and Software Update
         Services Fees. Interwoven may terminate Technical Support Services

         if the other party materially breaches this Agreement and fails to
         cure such breach within forty-five (45) days written notice
         specifying the breach in detail. Termination pursuant to this Section
         does not relieve Customer of its obligation to pay Fees or Interwoven

         rata basis, accrued prior to the effective date of termination.
      3. Survival.  Sections that by their nature survive expiration or

   processing facilities, or pursuant to any merger, consolidation or other
   reorganization, so long as said assignment is not to a competitor of the
   other party. An assignee of either party, if authorized hereunder, shall be

   -------------
   of the State of New York, excluding its conflict of law rules.
18.ATTORNEY'S FEES.  In the event legal action is required to enforce or

   in full compliance with the provisions of the U.S. Export Administration
   Act and Regulations.
21.GOVERNMENT USES.  If Customer is an agency of the U.S. Government, the
   ---------------
   following will apply: The Software has been developed entirely at private
   expense, is regularly used for non-governmental purposes and has been
   licensed to the public. The Software is a "commercial item" as that term is
   defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial computer
   software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as those terms
   are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995) or as "commercial computer
   software" as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R. 252.227-7014 (June 1995) or
   any equivalent agency regulation or contract clause, whichever is
   applicable. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1
   through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S. Government agencies acquire only

   software products, the parties agree to endeavor in good faith to amend
   this Agreement to add such other software products under the same discount
   levels and similar terms and conditions as hereby offered to Customer on
   the Effective Date of this Agreement. All amendments and modifications to
   this Agreement or the Schedules shall be in a signed writing to be binding
   on the parties.
23.PUBLICITY.  As a material obligation of this Agreement, neither party shall
   ----------
   use the name of the other in publicity, advertising, or similar activity
   without the prior written consent of the other. Interwoven understands that
   Customer does not contemplate providing any such consent and is under no
   obligation, express or implied, to provide any such consent, and, in the
   event that any such consent should be granted for a particular
   communication, Customer shall not be under any further obligation to
   provide consent in any future request. Customer will consider participation
   in

                                       8
<PAGE>

   Interwoven's marketing programs from time to time but is under no
   obligation to participate. Both parties to this Agreement agree not to

   disclose this Agreement to an Assignee pursuant to the Assignment Section
   hereof.

24.SECURITY.  In the event that any Interwoven personnel are physically
   ---------
   present at a Customer location pursuant to this Agreement, any such
   physical presence shall be subject to Customer's security requirements, and
   Interwoven shall indemnify Customer against any claims of any nature

   A. Industry Standards. Interwoven represents that any Software, Software
      Update Services and Technical Support Services will be performed promptly,
      diligently and in a professional manner in accordance with the highest
      commercial industry standards. This clause shall not be interpreted as an
      extension to the warranty in Section 9(B), as the latter is the warranty
      for the Software.

   B. Liquidated Damages. Interwoven acknowledges that its responsibility for
      paid Software, Software Update Services and Technical Support Services
      hereunder is a material obligation. Per the terms of the Technical
      Support Services described on Schedule 2,beyond the agreed response
      times for the different levels of Support subscribed to by Customer's
      Major Business Unit, (1) the failure by Interwoven to respond to
      Customer's Priority Error One request and provide a Fix, workaround or
      action plan to said Error within twenty four (24) hours or (2) the
      failure by Interwoven to respond to Customer's Priority Error Two
      request and provide a Fix, workaround or action plan to said Error
      within forty eight (48) hours, is a material breach of the Agreement.
      Additionally, failure by Interwoven to provide Software Updates to
      Customer to correct a Priority One Error and/or Priority Two Error, as
      described in Schedule 2, within a normal product development cycle
      (generally, a 12 month cycle) represents a material breach of this
      Agreement. The above-described material breaches by Interwoven will
      result in damage to Customer, which will be very difficult to calculate.
      To offset and partially compensate Customer for damages due to
      Interwoven's material breach as described above, Interwoven will pay to
      Customer as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to
      the sum of [*]. After a final decision to the amount of the liquidated
      damages, the amount shall be payable as cash payments due within forty
      five (45) days following a written request sent to Interwoven by Customer.

26.GENERAL.  Neither party shall be liable for any failure to perform due to
   --------
   causes beyond its reasonable control. The failure to enforce any right will
   not be deemed a waiver of such or any other right, including the right to
   enforce a subsequent breach of the same obligation. The parties are
   independent contractors and this Agreement will not be construed as a
   teaming agreement, joint venture or other business relationship. This
   Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be considered
   an original, but all counterparts together will constitute one agreement. A
   facsimile of a signed copy of this Agreement received from Customer may be
   relied upon as an original. The parties executing this Agreement represent
   and warrant that they have the authority to enter into this Agreement on
   behalf of their respective party.

                SOFTWARE PRODUCT OVERVIEW, DESCRIPTION AND FEES

A. CONTENT MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
- ------------------------------------------------

Interwoven currently produces two main products in the Content Management
space, TeamSite and OpenDeploy. These products and all associated options
(Software) provide Content Management capabilities for web environments.
TeamSite currently provides the functionality to enable users to edit web file
system content within the context of their own virtualized workspace. TeamSite
provides workflow to enable the allocation of files to workers as well as
implementing simple approval processes. TeamSite provides a staging area where
the content can be assembled into a single edition. TeamSite provides authors
with the ability to visually compare the contents of two files and highlight
those areas that are changed. The merge tool steps through these changes to
provide a single final file that can be moved to production. TeamSite provides
for multiple teams to work together by supporting separate branches of
development that can later be incorporated into a single development stream.
TeamSite Global Report Center is an additional option that allows TeamSite
event information to be stored in a relational database for event reporting.
TeamSite Templating is an additional option that supports the use of
customizable HTML templates for end users to employ in conjunction with
TeamSite. OpenDeploy transfers web related assets from development to
production and can synchronize the deployment of web pages, executable code
and databases. This deployment is securely encrypted with 128bit key within
the US only and unencrypted for all other international markets.

                              STANDARD OF CARE

     For such periods as Customer fully pays the Annual Support Fee, as set
forth on the Fee Schedule, applicable to the level of support selected by
Customer, Interwoven will provide Technical Support Services ("Support")
described herein pursuant to the terms and conditions in the Agreement and as
stated herein. During the initial Support term set forth in the Fee Schedule
each installation of the Software, which is not an installation of a Non-
Production Use Copy of the Software, shall receive the "Standard" level of
Support described below. During such term Customer may elect to upgrade any
installation of the Software, which is not an installation of a Non-Production
Use Copy of the Software, to a higher level of Support (i.e., "Gold" or

installation, of the pro-rata portion of the annual fee for such higher level
of Support corresponding to the period of time remaining in such term.

        1.  DEFINITIONS

     "Error" means a material failure of the Software to conform to its
functional specifications as described in the Product Specifications.  Errors do

following circumstances which adversely impact the operation of Software or the
ability of Interwoven provide Support: (i) the Software has been modified or
damaged in any manner by any person or entity other than Interwoven; (ii) the
Software has been used outside of the scope of the license granted under this
Agreement; (iii) any failure of the computer hardware, the computer operating
system and/or third party software utilized by Customer; (iv) the Software has
been installed or operated other than in accordance with Interwoven's
installation and operations instructions, including, without limitation, on
computer hardware, or operating systems other than for which that System Release
was designed; (v) Customer has failed to install the most recent New Release
made available to Customer pursuant to the Software Update Services and
Interwoven affirms to Customer that the Error in question has been corrected in
such New Release.

     "Fix" means, in Interwoven's discretion, either an Interim Release designed
to correct an Error, or a temporary work-around, patch or bypass supplied by

the Software or materially impairs substantial functions of the Software, but
which is not a Priority 1 Error.

     "Priority 3 Error" means any Error other than a Priority 1 Error or
Priority 2 Error.

     "Dedicated Support Engineer" means a senior technical support engineer who
is dedicated to managing the technical requirements of specific Interwoven
customer accounts.  Interwoven, may, in its discretion, substitute one or more
product specialists on a Dedicated Support Engineer Team, or designate a

the Support Team (in the case of Standard or Gold Support) or the Dedicated
Support Engineer Team (in the case of Platinum Support) on all Support matters;

the types of Software defined and described below.

SOFTWARE UPDATE DEFINITIONS AND DESCRIPTIONS


     "Interim Release" means an interim release version of the Software in which
one or more previously identified Errors have been corrected.  A new Interim
Release typically will be indicated by the addition of one (1) to the third
digit of the release number (e.g. v.X.X.2 would be the next Interim Release
after v.X.X.1).

     "New Release" is either a Version Release or Interim Release but does not
include a System Release or computer programs that, in Interwoven's sole
determination, contain substantially new or different functions and/or features
relative to the Software.

     "System Release" means a release of the Software which is designed to
operate on designated combinations of computer hardware and operating systems. A
new System Release typically will be indicated by the addition of one (1) to the
first digit of the release number (e.g. v.2.X.X would be the next System Release
after v.1.X.X).

     "Version Release" means an updated version of the Software with a limited
number of new or enhanced functions and/or features.  A new Version Release
typically will be indicated by the addition of one (1) to the second digit of
the release number (e.g. v.X.2.X would be the next Version Release after
v.X.1.X).

                         (Void after July 22, 2006)
                      Preferred Stock Warrant:  PEW-___

              THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
              SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED AND MAY NOT BE
              OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE THEREWITH. THIS
              WARRANT AND THE SHARES PURCHASABLE HEREUNDER ARE
              SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AS SET FORTH
              HEREIN.

     This certifies that General Electric Company ("GE") each of GE and any
successor or assign being a  "Holder"),  for consideration the sufficiency and
receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, is entitled to purchase from
Interwoven, Inc., a California corporation (the "Company"), subject to the terms
set forth below, [*], newly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares (subject
to adjustment as provided herein) of the Company's Series E Preferred Stock, no
par value per share (the "Warrant Shares") for cash at a price of [*] (as
adjusted as provided herein, the "Exercise Price") or pursuant to the cashless
exercise terms in Section 1.2 at any time or from time to time up to and
including 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) July 22, 2006, or if such day is not a
Business Day, then on the next succeeding Business Day, such day being referred
to herein as the "Expiration Date," upon surrender to the Company at its
principal office (or at such other location as the Company may advise the
Holder in writing) of this Warrant properly endorsed with the Form of
Subscription attached hereto duly filled in and signed and upon payment in cash
or by check of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares for which
this Warrant is being exercised determined in accordance with the provisions
hereof. [*]. The Exercise Price is subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 3 of this Warrant and the right to purchase the Warrant Shares and the
number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased hereunder are subject to the
contingencies set forth in this Warrant.

     This Warrant is subject to the following terms and conditions:

     1.   Exercise, Issuance of Certificates, Reduction in Number of Warrant
          ------------------------------------------------------------------
          Shares.
          ------

          1.1  General.  Except as provided in Section 1.2, this Warrant is
               -------
exercisable at the option of the Holder of record hereof on or prior to the
Expiration Date, at any time or from time to time, for all or any part of the
Warrant Shares (but not for a fraction of a share) which may be purchased
hereunder, as that number may be adjusted pursuant to Sections 1.2 or 3 of
this Warrant. The Company agrees that the Warrant Shares purchased under this
Warrant shall be and are deemed to be issued to the Holder hereof as the
record owner of such Warrant Shares as

of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been
surrendered, the completed and executed Form of Subscription delivered, and
payment of the Exercise Price in cash or by certified check, or if applicable,
submission of the cashless exercise calculation pursuant to Section 1.2 for
such Warrant Shares. In addition, with respect to the Warrant Shares, Holder
will make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.1 and
Company will make representations and warranties with respect to due
authorization, valid issuance and otherwise as set forth in Section 9.4
(excluding Section 9.4(c)), including the absence of pre-emptive rights and
the absence of conflict with the Company's constituent documents. Certificates
for the Warrant Shares so acquired, together with any other securities or
property (including any money) to which the Holder hereof is entitled upon
such exercise, shall be delivered to the Holder or its transferee designated
in writing to the Company by the Company at the Company's expense not later
than ten (10) days after the rights represented by this Warrant have been so
exercised. In case of a purchase of less than all the Warrant Shares which may
be purchased under this Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant and
promptly execute and deliver to the Holder or its transferee designated in
writing to the Company a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor for the balance
of the Warrant Shares purchasable under the Warrant surrendered upon such
purchase. Each stock certificate so delivered shall be registered in the name
of such Holder. The Company shall pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue
or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery of the Warrant
Shares.

          1.2  Net Issue Exercise of Warrant.  Notwithstanding any provisions
               -----------------------------
herein to the contrary, if the fair market value of one share of Series E
Preferred Stock is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of calculation
as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, Holder may
elect to receive shares of Series E Preferred Stock equal to the value (as
determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by
surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with
the properly endorsed Form of Subscription in which event the Company shall
issue to the Holder a number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock computed
using the following formula:

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

          Where                 X  =  the number of shares of Series E
                                      Preferred Stock to be issued to Holder

                                Y  =  the number of shares of Series E
                                      Preferred Stock purchasable under the
                                      Warrant or, if only a portion of the
                                      Warrant is being exercised, the portion
                                      of the Warrant being canceled (at the
                                      date of such calculation)

                                A  =  the fair market value of one share of
                                      the Company's Series E Preferred Stock
                                      (at the date of such calculation)

                                B  =  Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date
                                      of such calculation)

                                       2
<PAGE>

     2.   Reservation of Shares.  The Company hereby agrees that at all times
          ---------------------
there shall be reserved for issuance and delivery upon exercise of this
Warrant such number of authorized but unissued Warrant Shares (and Common
Stock into which such Warrant Shares are convertible) as will be sufficient to
permit the full exercise of this Warrant. The Company covenants and agrees
that all Warrant Shares, and all shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of such Warrant Shares, shall be duly authorized and, upon issuance
in accordance herewith, shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
and free of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or
restrictions upon sale and free and clear of preemptive or similar rights,
except for restrictions on transfer provided for herein, under the Rights
Agreement or under applicable federal and state securities laws.

     3.   Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares for Equity Events.
          -------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exercise Price and the total number of Warrant Shares shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events described
in this Section 3. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Holder of
this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price
resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares obtained by multiplying
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the
number of shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such
adjustment, and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting
from such adjustment.

          3.1  Dividends; Subdivision or Combination of Stock.
               ----------------------------------------------

               (a)  In the case the Company shall at any time after the date
hereof (i) declare a dividend or make a distribution on Series E Preferred
Stock payable in Series E Preferred Stock, (ii) subdivide or split the
outstanding Series E Preferred Stock, (iii) combine or reclassify the
outstanding Series E Preferred Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv)
issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of Series E
Preferred Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation),
the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend
or distribution or of the effective date of such subdivision, split,
combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the
exercise of this Warrant after such time shall entitle the holder to receive
the aggregate number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock or other securities
of the Company (or shares of any security into which such shares of Series E
Preferred Stock have been reclassified pursuant to clause 3.1(a)(iii) or
3.1(a)(iv) above) which, if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior
to such time, such holder would have owned upon such exercise and been
entitled to receive by virtue of such dividend, distribution, subdivision,
split, combination or reclassification. Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.

               (b)  In case the Company shall fix a record date for the
issuance of rights, options or warrants to the holders of its Series E
Preferred Stock or other securities entitling such holders to subscribe for or
purchase for a period expiring within 60 days of such record date shares of
Series E Preferred Stock (or securities convertible into share of Series E
Preferred Stock) at a price per share of Series E Preferred Stock (or having a
conversion price per share of Series E Preferred Stock, if a security
convertible into shares of Series E Preferred Stock) less than the Current
Market Price Per Series E Preferred Share on such record date, the maximum
number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of such
rights,

                                       3
<PAGE>

options or warrants (or conversion of such convertible securities) shall be
deemed to have been issued and outstanding as of such record date and the
Exercise Price shall be adjusted in the manner set forth in the following
sentence, as through such maximum number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock
had been so issued for an aggregate consideration payable by the holders of
such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities prior to their
receipt of such shares of Series E Preferred Stock. The adjusted Exercise
Price shall be determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or sale multiplied
by the Current Market Price Per Series E Preferred Shares immediately prior to
such record date and (y) the aggregate consideration, if any, to be received
by the Company upon such issuance or sale, and the denominator of which shall
be the product of the aggregate number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock
outstanding immediately after such record date and the Current Market Price
Per Series E Preferred Share immediately prior to such issuance. In case any
portion of the consideration to be received by the Company shall be in a form
other than cash, the fair market value of such noncash consideration shall be
utilized in the foregoing computation. Such fair market value shall be
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company; provided that if the
Holder shall object to any such determination, the Board of Directors shall
retain an independent appraiser reasonably satisfactory to the Holder to
determine such fair market value. The Holder shall be notified promptly of any
consideration other than cash to be received by the Company and furnished with
a description of the consideration and the fair market value thereof, as
determined by the Board of Directors. Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever such record date is fixed; and in the event that such
rights, options or warrants are not so issued or expire unexercised, or in the
event of a change in the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock to which
the holders of such rights, options or warrants are entitled (other then
pursuant to adjustment provisions therein comparable to those contained in
this paragraph 3.1), the Exercise Price shall again be adjusted to be the
Exercise Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been
fixed, in the former event, or the Exercise Price which would then be in
effect if such holder had initially been entitled to such changed number of
shares of Common Stock, in the latter event.

               (c)  In the case the Company shall fix a record date for the
making of a distribution to holders of Series E Preferred Stock (including any
such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which
the Company is the continuing corporation) of evidences of indebtedness,
assets or other property (other than dividends payable in Series E Preferred
Stock or rights, options or warrants referred to in, and for which an
adjustment is made pursuant to, paragraph 3(b) hereof), the Exercise Price to
be in effect after such record date shall be determined by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the Current Market Price Per Series E
Preferred Share on such record date, less the fair market value (determined as
set forth in paragraph 3.1(d) hereof) of the portion of the assets, other
property or evidence of indebtedness so to be distributed which is applicable
to one share of Series E Preferred Stock, and the denominator of which shall
be such Current Market Price Per Series E Preferred Share. Such adjustments
shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the
event that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price shall again be
adjusted to be the Exercise Price which would then be in effect if such record
date had not been fixed.

               (d)  For the purchase of any computation under paragraph 1.2 or
paragraph 3.1(b), or 3.1(c) hereof, on any determination date (i) on or prior
to the Company's initial public offering, the Current Market Price Per Series
E Preferred Share shall, subject to the penultimate sentence of this paragraph
3.1(d), be the fair market value per share of the applicable class of Series E
Preferred Stock as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors of the
Company, and (ii) after the Company's initial public offering, the Current
Market Price Per Series E Preferred Share shall be deemed to be the product of
(i) the average (weighted by daily trading volume) of the Daily Prices (as
defined below) per share of the applicable class of Common Stock for the 20
consecutive trading days immediately prior to such date and (ii) the number of
shares of Common Stock into which each share of Series E Preferred Stock is
then convertible into. "Daily Price" means (A) if the shares of such class of
Common Stock then are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc.
("NYSE"), the closing price on such day as reported on the NYSE Composite
Transactions Tape; (B) if the shares of such class of Common Stock then are
not listed and traded on the NYSE, the closing price on such day as reported
by the principal national securities exchange on which the shares are listed
and traded; (C) if the shares of such class of Common Stock then are not
listed and traded on any such securities exchange, the last reported sale
price on such day on the National Market of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ"); or (D) if the
shares of such class of Common Stock then are not traded on the NASDAQ
National Market, the average of the highest reported bid and lowest reported
asked price on such day as reported by NASDAQ. If on any determination date
the shares of such class of Stock are not quoted by any such organization, the
Current Market Price Per Share shall be the fair market value of such shares
on such determination date as determined by the Board of Directors. If the
Holder shall object to any determination by the Board of Directors on or prior
to the Company's initial public offering of the Current Market Price Per
Series E Preferred Share, the Current Market Price Per Series E Preferred
Share shall be the fair market value per share of the applicable class of
Series E Preferred Stock as determined by an independent appraiser retained by
the Company at its expense and reasonably acceptable to the Holder. For
purposes of any computation under this paragraph 3.1, the number of shares of
Series E Preferred Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include
shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company.

               (e)  In the event that, at any time as a result of the
provisions of this paragraph 3.1 the Holder of this Warrant upon subsequent
exercise shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the
Company other than Series E Preferred Stock, the number of such other shares
so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall, as more fully provided in
Section 9.3, thereafter be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner
and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions contained
herein.

               (f)  Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price as a result of
the calculations made in paragraphs 3.1(a), 3.1(b), or 3.1(c) hereof, the
number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to
the making of such adjustment shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase,
at the adjusted Exercise Price, that number of shares of Series E Preferred
Stock obtained by (i) multiplying the number of shares covered by this Warrant
immediately prior to this adjustment of the number of shares by the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment of the Exercise Price and
(ii) dividing the product so obtained by the Exercise Price in effect
immediately after such adjustment of the Exercise Price.

          3.2  [Intentionally Omitted]
                ---------------------

          3.3  Notice of Adjustment.  Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price
               --------------------
or any increase or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares, the Company shall
give written notice thereof, by first class mail postage prepaid, addressed to
the registered Holder of this Warrant at the address of such Holder as shown
on the books of the Company. The notice shall be prepared by the independent
public accountants then auditing the books of the Company and signed by the
Company's Chief Financial Officer and the Company's Secretary and shall state
the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the adjusted number of
shares if applicable, purchasable at such price upon the exercise of this
Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the
facts requiring such adjustment upon which such calculation is based. A copy
of such notice shall be kept in the custody of the Company's Secretary or
Assistant Secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent.

     4.   Consolidation, Merger, or Sale of Assets.  In case of any
          ----------------------------------------
consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other
Person, any merger of another Person into the Company (other than a merger
which does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or
cancellation of outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock) or any sale or
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or of the
Person formed by such consolidation or resulting from such merger or which
acquires such assets, as the case may be, the Holder shall have the right
thereafter to exercise this Warrant for the kind and amount of securities,
cash and other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or
transfer by a holder of the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock for
which this Warrant may have been exercised immediately prior to such
consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, assuming (i) such holder of Series E
Preferred Stock is not a person with which the Company consolidated or into
which the Company merged or which merged into the Company or to which such
sale or transfer was made, as the case may be ("constituent person"), or an
Affiliate of a constituent person and (ii) in the case of a consolidation,
merger, sale or transfer which includes an election as to the consideration to
be received by the holders, such holder of Series E Preferred Stock failed to
exercise its rights of election, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash
and other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or
transfer (provided that if the kind or amount of securities, cash and other
property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer is not
the same for each share of Series E Preferred Stock held immediately prior to
such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer by other than a constituent
person or an Affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election
shall not have been exercised ("non-electing share"), then for the purpose of
this paragraph 4 the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property
receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer by each non-
electing share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per
share by a plurality of the non-electing shares). Adjustments for events
subsequent to the effective date of such a consolidation, merger and sale of
assets shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments
provided for in this Warrant. In any such event, effective provisions shall be
made in the certificate or articles of incorporation of the resulting or
surviving corporation, in any contract of sale, conveyance, lease or transfer,
or otherwise so that the provisions set forth herein for the protection of the
rights of the Holder shall thereafter continue to be applicable; and any such
resulting or surviving corporation shall expressly assume the obligation to
deliver, upon exercise, such shares of stock, other securities, cash and
property. The provisions of this paragraph 4 shall similarly apply to
successive consolidations, mergers, sales, leases or transfers.

                                       6
<PAGE>

     5.   No Voting or Dividend Rights.  Nothing contained in this Warrant
          ----------------------------
shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder hereof the right, prior to
the exercise of the Warrant, to vote or to consent to receive notice as a
shareholder of the Company on any other matters or any rights whatsoever as a
shareholder of the Company. No dividends or interest shall be payable or
accrued in respect of this Warrant or the interest represented hereby or the
shares purchasable hereunder until, and only to the extent that, this Warrant
shall have been exercised.

     6.   Compliance with Securities Act; Transferability of Warrant;
          -----------------------------------------------------------
Disposition of Warrant Shares or Common Stock.
- ---------------------------------------------

          6.1  Compliance with Securities Act.  The Holder of this Warrant, by
               ------------------------------
acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant is being acquired for investment
and that it will not offer, sell, or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, any
Warrant Shares, or any shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of
the Warrant Shares except under circumstances which will not result in a
violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or any
applicable state securities laws. All Warrant Shares and all shares of Common
Stock issued upon conversion of the Warrant Shares (unless registered under
the Act) shall, subject to Section 6.3 be stamped or imprinted with a legend
in substantially the following form:

            THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
            SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT") OR THE
            SECURITIES OR BLUE SKY LAWS OF ANY STATE. THEY MAY
            NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD IN THE ABSENCE OF A
            REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE
            SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM THE
            REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT.

          6.2  Warrant Transferable.  Subject to compliance with applicable
               --------------------
federal and state securities laws under which this Warrant was purchased, this
Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part,
without charge to the Holder (except for transfer taxes), upon surrender of
this Warrant properly endorsed; provided, however, that the Holder shall
notify the Company in writing in advance of any proposed transfer and shall
not transfer this Warrant or any rights hereunder to any person or entity
which is then known to the Holder to be principally engaged in a business in
direct and substantial competition with the Company.

          6.3  Disposition of Warrant Shares and Common Stock.  With respect to
               ----------------------------------------------
any offer, sale, or other disposition of the Warrant, any Warrant Shares, or
of any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Warrant Shares
prior to registration of such shares, the Holder hereof and each subsequent
Holder of this Warrant agrees to give written notice to the Company prior
thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written
opinion of such Holder's counsel, if reasonably requested by the Company, to
the effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without
registration under the Act or any applicable state law then in effect of such
Warrant, Warrant Shares or Common Stock, as the case may be, or that such
Warrant, Warrant Shares or Common Stock are no longer subject to the
restrictive legends referred to herein. Promptly upon receiving such written
notice and opinion, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify such
Holder that such Holder may sell or otherwise dispose of such Warrant, Warrant
Shares or Common Stock, all in accordance with the terms of the

                                       7
<PAGE>

notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to
this subparagraph 6.3 that the opinion of the counsel for the Holder is not
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Holder
promptly after such determination has been made and provide a written legal
opinion of the Company's outside counsel explaining the reasons for such
determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Warrant, Warrant Shares or
Common Stock may be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with
Rule 144 under the Act, provided that the Company shall have been furnished
with such information as the Company may request to provide reasonable
assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Each
certificate representing the Warrant, Warrant Shares or Common Stock thus
transferred (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144) shall bear a legend as to
the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance
with the Act, unless in the aforesaid opinion of counsel for the Holder, such
legend is not required in order to insure compliance with the Act. If
appropriate in the circumstances, the Company may issue stop transfer
instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions.

     7.   Modification and Waiver.  This Warrant and any provision hereof may
          -----------------------
be amended, changed, waived, discharged, or terminated only by an instrument
in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the same is
sought. Except as expressly provided herein, no failure or delay by either

          9.2  Registrable Securities.  Upon exercise of this Warrant, the

               (b)  Capitalization.  As of June 30, 1999, the authorized
                    --------------
capital of the Company consisted of: 40,000,000 shares of Common Stock, of

rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions set forth in the Articles.
The outstanding shares have been duly authorized and validly issued

with (i) the Company's acquisition of Lexington Software Associates, Inc. and
(ii) option exercises under the Company's Stock Option Plans.

               (c)  Subsidiaries.  The Company does not presently own, have any

                    ---------------
corporate power and authority to execute, issue and deliver the Warrant, to

Warrant Shares, and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of
the Transactional Agreements.

               (f)  Validity of Shares.  The Warrant is duly and validly issued
                    ------------------
(including, without limitation, issued in compliance with applicable federal and
state securities laws), fully paid and non-assessable.  The Warrant Shares and
the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Shares have been duly
and validly reserved and, assuming such Warrant Shares and Common Stock are
issued as contemplated by this Warrant, upon issuance in accordance with the
Restated Articles will be duly and validly issued (including, without
limitation, issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state
securities laws) and

liens or encumbrances created by or imposed thereon by the holders; provided,

upon conversion thereof) shall be subject to restrictions on transfer under
state and/or federal securities laws. The Warrant, the Warrant Shares and the
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Shares are not subject to
any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal, except as otherwise so
agreed to by the holders thereof.

               (g)  No Conflict with Other Instruments.  The execution,
                    ----------------------------------
delivery, and performance of the Transactional Agreements will not result in
any violation of, be in conflict with, or constitute a default under, with or
without the passage of time or the giving of notice: (i) any provision of the
Company's Restated Articles or Bylaws; (ii) any provision of any judgment,
decree, or order to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound or an
event which results in the creation of any material lien, charge or
encumbrance upon any material assets of the Company; (iii) any material
contract, obligation, or commitment to which the Company is a party or by
which it is bound; or (iv) any statute, rule, or governmental regulation
applicable to the Company.

accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the laws
of the State of California.

          -------------
hereof that upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of
the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case

reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or in the case of any such mutilation
upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company, at its expense,
will make and deliver a new Warrant, of like tenor and date, in lieu of the
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant.

thereof the Company shall pay the Holder an amount in cash equal to such
fraction multiplied by the fair market value of a Warrant Share on the date of

     13.  No Impairment.  The Company represents and warrants that the terms of
          -------------
this Warrant (other than exercise price and expiration date), taken as a whole
or in any material respect, are not less favorable to Holder than the terms of
the other warrants issued by the Company. The Company will not, by charter
amendment or by reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid
or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any terms of this Warrant,
but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such
terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate
in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. Upon the
request of the Holder, the Company will at any time during the period this
Warrant is outstanding acknowledge in writing, in form satisfactory to Holder,
the continued validity of this Warrant and the Company's obligations
hereunder.
