The current Internet architecture was not designed for today's level of traffic
flows.
Fundamental scaling flaws in the design of the Internet can typically cause
latency and data packet loss at the interconnection points between backbone
providers. These scaling flaws include routing inefficiencies, a lack of
adequate network technology, the distributed management of public network access
point, or NAPs, and private peering points, and a lack of economic settlement
between network providers. All of these flaws result in unavoidable congestion
and poor Internet performance.
* The Internet infrastructure does not provide for economic settlement.
Today's lack of economic settlement between network backbones at the public
NAPs and private peering points results in little or no incentive for these
networks to maintain an end to end quality of service.
* Public NAPs and private peering points are major intersections of the
Internet, where large amounts of data traffic converge.
The public NAPs and private peering points are not centrally managed, and no
single entity has the economic incentive to facilitate problem resolution, to
optimize peering, or to bring about centralized routing administration.
[Graphic depicting interaction between network backbones and public network
access points and private peering points]
* What does it all mean?
As the rapid growth in Internet use continues, the congestion and data packet
loss at the public NAPs and private peering points will hinder the performance
of mission-critical applications over the public Internet.
* Congested intersections often result in data packet loss.
When public NAPs and private peering points are congested, data packet loss
occurs, slowing downloads and decreasing the reliability of data
transmissions.
<PAGE> 5
InterNAP provides consistent high performance Internet connectivity service
that is faster and more reliable than conventional service.
Delivering network quality without peer.(TM)
Utilizing our proprietary network architecture and advanced routing
technologies, we are able to route, or transfer, data to and from businesses
that are connected to one or more of our Private-Network Access Points, or
P-NAPs, in a manner that minimizes the use of congested public NAPs and private
peering points. This optimal routing of data traffic over the multiplicity of
networks that comprise the Internet enables higher transmission speeds, lower
instances of data packet loss and greater quality of service.
* InterNAP provides economic incentive to backbone providers.
InterNAP pays the backbone providers for sending and receiving customer data
across their networks and provides a differentiated quality of service for
InterNAP customers.
* InterNAP's technology speeds data transmissions.
With InterNAP's intelligent routing technology, data is routed directly to the
backbone on which the destination resides, largely bypassing the
often-congested public NAPs and private peering points.
* InterNAP optimally routes customer data.
InterNAP customers' data is optimally routed to and from destinations on the
Internet.
[Graphic depicting interaction between network backbones and InterNAP P-NAP]
* InterNAP consolidates the benefits of direct access to major global
Internet networks into one connection.
InterNAP provides Internet connectivity services directly to major backbone
providers for the price of one connection.
* What does it all mean?
InterNAP customers receive fast, reliable and centrally managed Internet
connectivity services that maximize the performance of their mission-critical
Internet-based applications.

1. Backbone A passes off the ISP Customer request for data at the nearest
private peering point to Backbone B, regardless of congestion or performance
problems occurring at that point.
Public NAPs and private peering points do not provide economic settlement
between two peering networks, thereby resulting in "best effort" delivery
with no guarantees or accountability for poor performance or lost data.
2. Using an asymmetric return route, Backbone B passes off the ISP Customer
request at a public NAP, forcing the data to transit across yet another
potentially congested network infrastructure, resulting in possible data
packet loss and poor network performance.

[Graphic on page 38 depicting P-NAP routing method]
The InterNAP Solution:
1. The P-NAP intelligently routes data transmissions between the InterNAP
Customer Web site and the backbone ISP Customer, bypassing congested and
unreliable public NAPs and private peering points.
2. For InterNAP ISP and Web site Customers that are connected to the same P-NAP,
data transmissions occur within the local P-NAP infrastructure, bypassing the
Internet entirely.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
You should read the following summary together with the more detailed
information regarding our company and the common stock being sold in this
offering and our financial statements and the notes to our financial statements
appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
InterNAP is a leading provider of fast, reliable and centrally managed
Internet connectivity services targeted at businesses seeking to maximize the
performance of mission-critical Internet-based applications. Customers connected
to one of our Private-Network Access Points, or P-NAPs, have their data
optimally routed to and from destinations on the Internet in a manner that
minimizes the use of congested public network access points, or NAPs, and
private peering points. We offer our high performance Internet connectivity
services at dedicated line speeds of 1.5 Megabits per second, or Mbps, to 155
Mbps to customers desiring higher transmission speeds, lower instances of data
packet loss and greater quality of service than they could receive from
conventional Internet connectivity providers. As of June 30, 1999, we provided
consistent high performance Internet connectivity services to approximately 130
customers, including Amazon.com, Fidelity Investments, Go2Net, ITXC, Nasdaq,
TheStreet.com and WebTV.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The Internet is rapidly becoming a critically important medium for
communications and commerce. However, businesses are unable to benefit from the
full potential of the Internet due, in part, to slow and unreliable data
transfers. This results primarily from peering and routing practices, current
routing technologies and the Internet's architecture, which was not designed to
support today's large volumes of traffic. To compound this problem, Internet
traffic is expected to grow rapidly. Pioneer Consulting, LLC estimates that
Internet bandwidth demand in North America will grow from 175 Gigabits per
second in 1998 to 2,990 Gigabits per second in 2003, representing a 76% compound
annual growth rate. In addition, widespread adoption of applications that rely
on network quality and require consistent, high speed data transfer, such as
voice and fax over Internet Protocol, virtual private network services,
multimedia document distribution and audio and video streaming, will be hindered
by the performance problems of the Internet. We believe the future of Internet
connectivity services will be driven by providers that, through high performance
Internet routing services, enable businesses to successfully execute their
mission-critical Internet-based applications over the public network
infrastructures and provide consistent, high quality service.
OUR SOLUTION
We provide high performance Internet connectivity services through the
deployment of P-NAPs, which are highly redundant network infrastructure
facilities coupled with our proprietary ASsimilator routing technology. Our
P-NAPs maintain high speed, dedicated connections to major global Internet
backbone networks, such as AGIS, AT&T, Cable & Wireless USA, GTE
Internetworking, ICG Communications, Intermedia, PSINet, Sprint, UUNET and
Verio. In addition, we have entered into a traffic exchange interconnect
agreement with America Online, Inc. which provides us with direct access to
AOL's network of over 19 million members. Our technology platform optimally
routes our customers' data packets through the backbone networks, generally
bypassing Internet traffic congestion and reducing data packet loss that
frequently occurs at public NAPs and private peering points. We currently
operate seven P-NAPs which are located in the Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New
York, San Jose, Seattle and Washington, D.C. metropolitan areas, and expect to
complete the deployment of five additional P-NAPs in the United States by the
end of 1999.

<PAGE> 13
Our services provide the following key advantages:
- High Performance Connectivity. We route our customers' traffic over the
Internet in a way that we believe provides consistently greater speed,
along with superior end-to-end control, predictability and reliability,
than services offered by conventional Internet connectivity providers.
- Highly Reliable Network Architecture. P-NAPs are designed with a highly
redundant network infrastructure, such that any of the Internet backbones
connected to a P-NAP can be used to instantly reroute customers' data
packets in the event of a backbone provider network outage.
- Superior Route Optimization and Management. Our proprietary routing
technology and network management system provide us with data to manage
network traffic and to offer economic settlements to backbone providers
for the transfer of our customers' data packets.
- Scalability and Flexibility. We manage each P-NAP independently and make
connection upgrades locally as required with each backbone provider. This
allows us to more readily scale our capacity as traffic levels increase,
without the need to make uniform upgrades throughout our system of
P-NAPs.
- Superior Customer Service and Support. Our customers receive the benefit
of our proprietary network monitoring and reporting tools and a single
point of contact with our highly skilled engineers for support inquiries,
network troubleshooting and diagnosis 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
OUR STRATEGY
Our objective is to be the leading provider of high performance Internet
connectivity services that enable businesses to run mission-critical
Internet-based applications and to establish and maintain the standard of
quality for Internet connectivity services. To achieve this objective we intend
to:
- Enhance Our Core Technologies to Provide the Highest Performance Internet
Connectivity Services. We intend to continue developing our P-NAP
architecture and sophisticated routing technology to enable our customers
to maximize the performance of existing applications and to take
advantage of new services such as voice and fax over Internet Protocol,
virtual private network services, multimedia document distribution and
audio and video streaming.
- Continue to Provide Superior Customer Service and Support. We intend to
continue providing our customers with a superior customer service
experience which we believe will continue to be a key competitive
advantage.
- Expand Our Geographic Coverage in Key Markets. We currently offer
services through our P-NAPs in seven key metropolitan areas across the
United States and we intend to aggressively deploy P-NAPs in key markets
across the United States and internationally.
- Continue to Build Our Brand Awareness. We intend to continue leveraging
our brand name as our Internet connectivity services are increasingly
associated with a high quality of service.
- Continue to Target Strategic Markets. We intend to continue focusing our
marketing message and experienced sales force on strategic market
segments which are characterized by a need for fast, reliable and
manageable Internet connectivity services.
- Maintain Backbone Provider Neutrality. By maintaining backbone provider
neutrality we are able to establish high-volume connections to major
backbone providers. In order to maintain our high quality of service, we
intend to continue to add backbone providers as they emerge, as existing
backbone providers increase in importance, and as global Internet traffic
patterns evolve.

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below before making an
investment decision. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the
only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to
us or that we currently think are immaterial may also impair our business
operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business,
financial condition or results of operations could be seriously harmed. In such
case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all
or part of your investment.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES, EXPECT FUTURE LOSSES AND MAY NOT ACHIEVE OR
SUSTAIN ANNUAL PROFITABILITY
We have incurred net losses in each quarterly and annual period since we
began operations. We incurred a net loss of $1.6 million for the year ended
December 31, 1997 and a net loss of $7.0 million for the year ended December 31,
1998. Our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $16.1 million. As
of June 30, 1999, our accumulated deficit was $25.7 million. As a result of our
expansion plans, we expect to incur net losses and negative cash flows from
operations on a quarterly and annual basis in the foreseeable future. We cannot
assure you that we will achieve or sustain revenue growth or profitability on
either a quarterly or an annual basis. If we do not achieve or sustain
profitability in the future, we will be unable to continue our operations.
OUR LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE OUR PROSPECTS
The revenue and income potential of our business and market is unproven,
and our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects.
We have only been in existence since 1996, and our services are only offered in
limited regions. Due to our limited operating history, you should consider and
evaluate our prospects in light of the risks and difficulties frequently
encountered by relatively new companies, particularly companies in the rapidly
evolving Internet infrastructure and connectivity markets. To address the risks
we face, we must, among other things:
- build and deploy our operations infrastructure, including additional
P-NAPs;
- maintain relationships with major backbone providers;
- expand our sales organization and marketing programs;
- increase awareness of the InterNAP brand;
- provide reliable and cost-effective services to our customers;
- respond to technological developments or service offerings by
competitors; and
- attract and retain qualified personnel.
If we fail to adequately address these risks, our business, financial
condition and results of operations may be significantly harmed.
FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS MAY NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR
STOCK PRICE
Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated in the past and are likely
to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter in the future due to a
variety of factors, not all of which are under our control. Accordingly, we
believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not
7
<PAGE> 17
meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance.
Some of the factors that could cause our revenues and operating results to
fluctuate include the following:
- demand for and market acceptance of our Internet connectivity services;
- the timing and magnitude of capital expenditures, including costs
relating to the buildout and deployment of additional P-NAPs and the
expansion of operations;
- increasing operating expenses;
- our practice of purchasing Internet connectivity from backbone providers
at new P-NAPs, before customers are secured and our ability to generate
revenues for our services from those P-NAPs;
- our contractual obligation to purchase minimum levels of Internet
connectivity from some backbone providers, without regard to the amount
we resell to our customers;
- changes in the prices for Internet connectivity we pay backbone
providers;
- our revenue mix between usage-based and fixed rate pricing plans;
- our ability to obtain, and the pricing for, local loop connections to our
P-NAPs;
- fluctuations in the duration of the sales cycle for our services;
- the compensation of our sales personnel based on achievement of periodic
sales quotas;
- the announcement or introduction of new or enhanced services by our
competitors or us; and
- conditions specific to the Internet and telecommunications industries and
general economic factors.
It is possible that in some future periods our results of operations may
fall below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In this
event, the price of our common stock may fall. You should not rely on
quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our results of operations as an indication of
future performance.
WE MAY EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTY DEPLOYING AND MANAGING OUR NETWORK OF P-NAPS
Our success depends on our ability to continue to deploy additional P-NAPs
and to integrate, operate and upgrade our P-NAP network and facilities. The
deployment of new P-NAP facilities, each of which takes approximately four to
six months to complete, is a key element of our business strategy. In addition
to our seven existing locations, we are planning to continue to deploy P-NAPs
across a wide range of geographic regions. Although we do market research in a
geographic area before deploying a P-NAP facility, we do not enter into service
contracts with customers prior to building a new facility. Any delay in the
opening of these P-NAP facilities would significantly harm our plans for
expansion of our business. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in
expanding our operations on a cost-effective and timely basis or in additional
geographic locations, if at all, or that there will be sufficient customer
demand to support our new P-NAP facilities.
The successful deployment of new P-NAP facilities will require careful
management of the various risks that are associated with significant
construction projects, including identifying and locating P-NAP sites,
construction delays, cost estimation errors or overruns, equipment and material
delays or shortages, the inability to obtain necessary permits on a timely
basis, if at all, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our
plans to rapidly build and deploy additional P-NAPs could place a significant
strain on our management's time and our resources. We cannot assure you that we
will be able to successfully deploy and manage our expanding network of P-NAPs.
8
<PAGE> 18
New P-NAP facilities, if completed, will result in substantial new
operating expenses, including expenses associated with hiring, training,
retaining and managing new employees, provisioning capacity from backbone
providers, purchasing new equipment, implementing new systems, leasing
additional real estate and incurring additional depreciation expense. In
addition, if we do not institute adequate financial and managerial controls,
reporting systems, and procedures with which to operate multiple facilities in
geographically dispersed locations, our operations will be significantly harmed.
OUR REVENUES ARE HEAVILY DEPENDENT ON A FEW CUSTOMERS
We currently derive a substantial portion of our total revenues from a
limited number of customers. For the six months ended June 30, 1999, revenues
from U.S. Electrodynamics, Inc. represented 10.6% of our total revenues. For the
year ended December 31, 1998, revenues from Go2Net represented 13.6% of our
total revenues. For the year ended December 31, 1997, revenues from Starcom
Service Corporation represented 20.8% of our total revenues and Go2Net
represented 18.1% of our total revenues. Typically, the agreements with our
customers are based on our standard terms and conditions of service and
generally have terms ranging from one year to three years. We cannot assure you
that revenues from these customers or from other customers that have accounted
for a significant portion of our revenues in past periods, individually or as a
group, will continue, or if continued, will reach or exceed historical levels in
any future period. For example, in 1998 Starcom defaulted on its payments to us,
subsequently filed for bankruptcy and is no longer a customer of ours. In
addition, we may not succeed in diversifying our customer base in future
periods. Accordingly, we may continue to derive a significant portion of our
revenues from a relatively small number of customers. Further, we have had
limited experience with the renewal of contracts by customers whose initial
service contract terms have been completed and cannot assure you that these
customers will renew their contracts with us.
OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR RELATIONSHIPS WITH INTERNET BACKBONE PROVIDERS
In delivering our services, we rely on Internet backbones which are built
and operated by others. In order to be able to provide optimal routing to our
customers through our P-NAPs, we must purchase connections from several Internet
backbone providers. Currently, in each of our fully operational P-NAPs, we have
connections to at least six of the following 10 backbone providers: Apex Global
Information Systems (AGIS), AT&T, Cable & Wireless USA, Inc., GTE
Internetworking, Inc., ICG Communications, Intermedia Communications Inc.,
PSINet, Inc., Sprint Internet Services, UUNET, an MCI WorldCom Company, and
Verio, Inc. In addition, we do not begin to operate a P-NAP until it is
connected to at least two of the following four backbone providers: UUNET,
Sprint, Cable & Wireless USA and GTE Internetworking. We cannot assure you that
these Internet backbone providers will continue to provide service to us on a
cost-effective basis, if at all, or that these providers will provide us with
additional capacity to adequately meet customer demand. Furthermore, it is very
unlikely that we could replace our Internet backbone providers on comparable
terms. If we fail to maintain relationships with, or are unable to obtain
necessary additional capacity from, our existing backbone providers, or if we
fail to establish and maintain relationships with other backbone providers that
may emerge or that are significant in geographic areas in which we locate our
P-NAPs, our business and prospects could suffer significantly. In addition, our
business, financial condition and results of operations would be significantly
harmed if there is a material increase in our cost of obtaining Internet
connectivity.
WE OPERATE IN AN EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE MARKET, AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO
COMPETE EFFECTIVELY AGAINST OUR MANY COMPETITORS
The Internet connectivity services market is extremely competitive, and
there are few substantial barriers to entry. We expect that competition will
intensify in the future. Many of our competitors
9
<PAGE> 19
have greater market presence, engineering and marketing capabilities, and
financial, technological and personnel resources than we do. As a result, as
compared to us, our competitors may:
- develop and expand their network infrastructures and service offerings
more efficiently or more quickly;
- adapt more rapidly to new or emerging technologies and changes in
customer requirements;
- take advantage of acquisitions and other opportunities more effectively;
- develop Internet services and products that are superior to or have
greater market acceptance;
- adopt more aggressive pricing policies and devote greater resources to
the promotion, marketing, sale, research and development of their
products and services;
- make more attractive offers to our existing and potential employees and
strategic partners or establish cooperative relationships with each other
or with third parties; and
- more effectively take advantage of existing relationships with customers
or exploit a more widely recognized brand name to market and sell their
services.
Our competitors include:
- backbone providers that provide us connectivity services, including AGIS,
AT&T, Cable & Wireless USA, GTE Internetworking, ICG Communications,
Intermedia, PSINet, Sprint, UUNET and Verio;
- regional Bell operating companies which offer Internet access; and
- global, national and regional Internet service providers.
In addition, if we are successful in implementing our international expansion,
we will encounter additional competition from international Internet service
providers as well as international telecommunications companies.
We also believe that new competitors will enter our market. Such new
competitors could include computer hardware, software, media and other
technology and telecommunications companies. A number of telecommunications
companies and online service providers currently offer, or have announced plans
to offer or expand, their network services. Other companies, including GTE
Internetworking, PSINet and Verio, have expanded their Internet access products
and services through acquisition. Further, the ability of some of our
competitors to bundle other services and products with their network services
could place us at a competitive disadvantage. Various companies are also
exploring the possibility of providing, or are currently providing, high-speed
data services using alternative delivery methods including the cable television
infrastructure, direct broadcast satellites, wireless cable and wireless local
loop. In addition, Internet backbone providers may make technological
developments, such as improved router technology, that will enhance the quality
of their services.
We may not have the financial resources, technical expertise, sales and
marketing abilities or support capabilities to compete successfully in the
intensely competitive market served by us. If we are unable to compete
successfully against our competitors, our business, financial condition and
results of operations will be significantly harmed.
WE MAY ENCOUNTER PRICING PRESSURE THAT COULD AFFECT OUR OPERATING RESULTS
We currently charge, and expect to continue to charge, more for our
Internet connectivity services than our competitors. By bundling their services
and reducing the overall cost of their solutions, telecommunications companies
that compete with us may be able to provide customers
10
<PAGE> 20
with reduced communications costs in connection with their Internet connectivity
services or private network services, thereby significantly increasing pricing
pressure on us. We may not be able to offset the effects of any such price
reductions even with an increase in the number of our customers, higher revenues
from enhanced services, cost reductions or otherwise. Increased price
competition or other competitive pressures could erode our market share and
could significantly harm our business. In addition, we believe that the Internet
connectivity industry is likely to encounter consolidation in the future.
Consolidation could result in increased price and other competition in our
market, which could significantly harm our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
A FAILURE IN OUR NETWORK OPERATIONS CENTER, P-NAPS OR COMPUTER SYSTEMS
WOULD CAUSE A SIGNIFICANT DISRUPTION TO OUR BUSINESS
Our business depends on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of our
network operations center, our P-NAPs and our computer and communications
hardware systems and infrastructure. We currently have one network operations
center located in Seattle, and we have seven P-NAPs which are located in the
Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, San Jose, Seattle and Washington, D.C.
metropolitan areas. If we experience a problem at our network operations center,
we may be unable to provide Internet connectivity services to our customers,
provide customer service and support or monitor our network infrastructure and
P-NAPs, any of which would seriously harm our business. While we have taken
precautions against systems failure, interruptions could result from natural
disasters as well as power loss, telecommunications failure and similar events.
We also lease capacity from Internet backbone providers whose service may be
interrupted. Any damage to or failure of our systems or infrastructure or our
service providers could result in reductions in, or terminations of, services
supplied by us to our customers, which could significantly harm our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
OUR BRAND IS NOT WELL-KNOWN AND FAILURE TO DEVELOP BRAND RECOGNITION COULD
HURT OUR BUSINESS
To successfully execute our strategy, we must strengthen our brand
awareness. While many of our competitors have well-established brands associated
with the provision of Internet connectivity services, to date our market
presence has been limited principally to the Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New
York, San Jose, Seattle and Washington D.C. metropolitan areas. To date, we have
attracted our existing customers primarily through a relatively small sales
force and word of mouth. In order to build our brand awareness, we intend to
significantly increase our marketing efforts, which may not be successful, and
we must continue to provide high quality services. As part of our brand building
efforts, we expect to increase our marketing budget substantially as well as our
marketing activities, including advertising, tradeshows, direct response
programs and new P-NAP launch events. We cannot assure you that these efforts
will succeed as planned. If we do not build our brand awareness, our ability to
realize our strategic and financial objectives could be hurt.
WE DEPEND UPON KEY PERSONNEL AND MAY BE UNABLE TO HIRE AND RETAIN
SUFFICIENT NUMBERS OF QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
Our future performance depends to a significant degree upon the continued
contributions of our executive management team and key technical personnel. The
loss of any member of our executive management team or a key technical employee,
such as our Chief Executive Officer, Anthony Naughtin, our Chief Technology
Officer, Christopher Wheeler, or our Chief Financial Officer, Paul McBride,
could significantly harm us. Any of our officers or employees can terminate his
or her relationship with us at any time. To the extent that we are able to
expand our operations and deploy additional P-NAPs, our workforce will be
required to grow. Accordingly, our future success depends on our ability to
attract, hire, train and retain a substantial number of highly skilled
management,
11
<PAGE> 21
technical, sales, marketing and customer support personnel. Competition for
qualified employees is intense. Consequently, we may not be successful in
attracting, hiring, training and retaining the people we need, which would
seriously harm our business and results of operations.
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUPPORT OUR RAPID GROWTH EFFECTIVELY
Since the introduction of our Internet connectivity services, we have
experienced a period of rapid growth and expansion which has placed, and
continues to place, a significant strain on all of our resources. We expect our
growth to continue to strain our management, operational and financial
resources. For example, we may not be able to install adequate financial control
systems in an efficient and timely manner, and our current or planned
information systems, procedures and controls may be inadequate to support our
future operations. The difficulties associated with installing and implementing
new systems, procedures and controls may place a significant burden on our
management and our internal resources. Our inability to manage growth
effectively would seriously harm our business, financial condition and results
of operations.
WE FACE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION
Although we currently operate in seven domestic metropolitan markets, a key
component of our strategy is to expand into international markets. We have no
experience operating internationally. We may not be able to adapt our services
to international markets or market and sell these services to customers abroad.
In addition, we may find it more difficult and expensive to hire, train and
retain employees and to manage international operations together with our United
States operations. International operations are subject to a number of risks,
including:
- expenses associated with localizing our services for foreign countries;
- difficulties in establishing and maintaining relationships with foreign
backbone providers and local vendors, including co-location and local
loop providers;
- difficulties in locating, building and deploying P-NAPs in foreign
countries and managing P-NAPs and network operations centers across
disparate geographic areas;
- difficulties complying with different technical requirements and
standards;
- the development of technologies that are necessary for us to deliver our
Internet connectivity services internationally;
- business practices that favor local competition and protectionist laws;
- multiple, conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations;
- longer sales cycles;
- difficulties in collecting accounts receivable;
- difficulties associated with enforcing agreements through foreign legal
systems; and
- foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
If we fail to successfully address the risks associated with our currently
proposed international operations, our international sales growth will be
limited and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be
significantly harmed.
12
<PAGE> 22
OUR FAILURE TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MAY ADVERSELY
AFFECT US, AND THERE IS A RISK OF INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY RIGHTS
We believe that patents and other intellectual property rights are
important to our business and our future success. We file patent applications to
protect our technology, inventions and improvements to inventions that we
consider important to our business. The United States Patent and Trademark
Office, USPTO, has recently notified us that it has allowed the claims in our
initial patent application. Additional claims that were included by amendment in
that application are still pending. We cannot assure you that the USPTO will
allow any additional claims under our patent application, or, if allowed, that
any patent issued will be of any benefit to us. It is possible that:
- our pending patent applications may not result in the issuance of
patents;
- any patents that may be issued to us could still be successfully
challenged by third parties, which could result in our loss of the right
to prevent others from exploiting the inventions claimed in those
patents;
- current and future competitors may independently develop similar
technologies, duplicate our services and products or design around any
patents that may be issued to us;
- effective patent protection may not be available in every country in
which we intend to do business; and
- any patents that may be issued to us may not provide significant
proprietary protection or commercial advantage to us.
In addition to patent protection, we believe the protection of our
copyrightable materials, trademarks and trade secrets is important to our future
success. We rely on a combination of laws, such as copyright, trademark and
trade secret laws and contractual restrictions, such as confidentiality
agreements and licenses, to establish and protect our proprietary rights. In
particular, we generally enter into confidentiality agreements with our
employees and nondisclosure agreements with our customers and corporations with
whom we have strategic relationships. In addition, we generally register our
important trademarks with the USPTO to preserve their value and establish proof
of our ownership and use of these trademarks. Any trademarks that may be issued
to us may not provide significant proprietary protection or commercial advantage
to us. Despite any precautions that we have taken, intellectual property laws
and contractual restrictions may not be sufficient to prevent misappropriation
of our technology or deter others from developing similar technology.
The telecommunications industry is characterized by the existence of a
large number of patents and frequent litigation based on allegations of patent
infringement. From time to time, third parties may assert patent, copyright,
trademark and other intellectual property rights to technologies that are
important to our business. Any claims that our services infringe or may infringe
proprietary rights of third parties could significantly harm our business,
financial condition or results of operations. Any claims, with or without merit,
could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, divert the efforts of our
technical and management personnel or require us to enter into royalty or
licensing agreements, any of which could significantly harm our operating
results. In addition, in our customer agreements, we agree to indemnify our
customers for any expenses or liabilities resulting from claimed infringement of
patents, trademarks or copyrights of third parties. In the event a claim against
us was successful, and we could not obtain a license to the relevant or a
substitute technology on acceptable terms, or redesign our products to avoid
infringement, our business, financial condition and results of operations would
be significantly harmed.
13
<PAGE> 23
WE ARE DEPENDENT ON THIRD PARTY SUPPLIERS FOR KEY COMPONENTS OF OUR NETWORK
INFRASTRUCTURE
We are dependent on other companies to supply various key components of our
infrastructure, including the local loops between our P-NAPs and our Internet
backbone providers and between our P-NAPs and our customers' networks. In
addition, the routers and switches used in our network infrastructure are
currently supplied by a limited number of vendors, including Cisco Systems, Inc.
We cannot assure you that additional sources of these products would be
available on satisfactory terms, if at all. We purchase these products pursuant
to purchase orders placed from time to time, we do not carry significant
inventories of these products, and we have no guaranteed supply arrangements
with our vendors. Any failure to obtain required products or services on a
timely basis and at an acceptable cost would significantly harm our business,
financial condition and results of operations. We have in the past experienced
delays in receiving shipments of equipment purchased. To date, these delays have
not adversely affected us, but we cannot assure you that we will not be
adversely affected by delays in the future. If Cisco Systems does not provide us
with its routers, our business, financial condition and results of operations
may be significantly harmed. In addition, any failure of our limited source
suppliers to provide products or services that comply with evolving Internet and
telecommunications standards or that interoperate with other products or
services used by us in our network infrastructure could cause our business,
financial condition or results of operations to suffer.
YEAR 2000 PROBLEMS MAY DISRUPT OUR BUSINESS
Many computers, software and other equipment include computer code in which
calendar year data is abbreviated to only two digits. As a result of this design
decision, some of these systems could fail to operate or fail to produce correct
results if "00" is interpreted to mean 1900, rather than 2000. These problems
are widely expected to increase in frequency and severity as the year 2000
approaches and are commonly referred to as the "Year 2000 problem."
The Year 2000 problem could result in system failures or miscalculations
causing disruptions of operations, including among other things, a temporary
inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage in similar normal
business activities. The Year 2000 problem may affect the network
infrastructure, computers, software and other equipment that we use, operate or
maintain for our operations. We believe that we have identified most of the
major computers, software applications and related equipment used in connection
with our internal operations that will need to be evaluated to determine if they
must be modified, upgraded or replaced to minimize the possibility of a material
disruption to our business. We cannot assure you that our computers and systems
are Year 2000 compliant. In addition, many of our customers' and suppliers'
Internet operations may be affected by complications related to the Year 2000
problem. The failure of our customers or suppliers to ensure that their systems
are Year 2000 compliant could have a significantly harmful effect on our
customers and suppliers, resulting in decreased Internet usage or the delay or
inability to obtain necessary data communication or telecommunication capacity,
which in turn could have a significantly harmful effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations. For further discussion of the
Year 2000 problem, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations."
WE MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL IN THE FUTURE AND MAY NOT BE ABLE TO
SECURE ADEQUATE FUNDS ON TERMS ACCEPTABLE TO US
The expansion and development of our business will require significant
capital, which we may be unable to obtain, to fund our capital expenditures and
operations, including working capital needs. Our principal capital expenditures
and lease payments include the purchase, lease and installation of network
equipment such as routers, telecommunications equipment and other computer
equipment. The timing and amount of our future capital requirements may vary
significantly depending on
14
<PAGE> 24
numerous factors, including regulatory, technological, competitive and other
developments in our industry. During the next twelve months, we expect to meet
our cash requirements with existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments, the net proceeds from this offering and cash flow from sales of our
services. However, our capital requirements depend on several factors, including
the rate of market acceptance of our services, the ability to expand our
customer base, the rate of deployment of additional P-NAPs and other factors. If
our capital requirements vary materially from those currently planned, or if we
fail to generate sufficient cash flow from the sales of our services, we may
require additional financing sooner than anticipated or we may have to delay or
abandon some or all of our development and expansion plans or otherwise forego
market opportunities.
We may not be able to obtain future equity or debt financing on favorable
terms, if at all. In addition, our credit agreement contains covenants
restricting our ability to incur further indebtedness. Future borrowing
instruments such as credit facilities and lease agreements are likely to contain
similar or more restrictive covenants and will likely require us to pledge
assets as security for borrowings thereunder. Our inability to obtain additional
capital on satisfactory terms may delay or prevent the expansion of our
business, which could cause our business, financial condition and results of
operations to suffer.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY
OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON THE ACCEPTANCE OF OUR SERVICES IN AN EMERGING AND
UNCERTAIN INTERNET CONNECTIVITY MARKET
If the market for high performance Internet connectivity services fails to
develop, or develops more slowly than expected, or if our services do not
achieve widespread market acceptance, our business, financial condition and
results of operations would be significantly harmed. This market has only
recently begun to develop, is evolving rapidly and likely will be characterized
by an increasing number of entrants. There is significant uncertainty as to
whether this market ultimately will prove to be viable or, if it becomes viable,
that it will grow. Our future growth depends on the growth of the Internet as a
global communications and commerce medium. Even if Internet usage grows, we
cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully and cost-effectively
market and sell our services to a sufficiently large number of customers. We
typically charge more for our services than do our competitors, which may affect
market acceptance of our services. Furthermore, if the Internet becomes subject
to a form of central management, or if the Internet backbone providers establish
an economic settlement arrangement regarding the exchange of traffic between
backbones, the problems of congestion, latency and data packet loss addressed by
our Internet connectivity services could be largely resolved and our business,
financial condition and results of operations could be significantly harmed.
In order to be successful in this emerging market, we must be able to
differentiate ourselves from the competition through service offerings and brand
name recognition. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in making this
differentiation or achieving widespread acceptance of our services, or that we
will not experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful
development, introduction or marketing of our services.
OUR BUSINESS IS DEPENDENT ON THE CONTINUED GROWTH IN USE AND IMPROVEMENT OF
THE INTERNET
Critical issues concerning the commercial use of the Internet remain
unresolved and may affect the growth of Internet use, especially in the business
market targeted by us. Despite growing interest in the varied commercial uses of
the Internet, many businesses have been deterred from purchasing Internet
connectivity services for a number of reasons, including inconsistent quality of
service, lack of availability of cost-effective, high-speed options, a limited
number of local access points for corporate users, inability to integrate
business applications on the Internet, the need to deal with
15
<PAGE> 25
multiple and frequently incompatible vendors and a lack of tools to simplify
Internet access and use. Capacity constraints caused by growth in the use of the
Internet may, unless resolved, impede further development of the Internet to the
extent that users experience delays, transmission errors and other difficulties.
Further, the adoption of the Internet for commerce and communications,
particularly by those individuals and enterprises that have historically relied
upon alternative means of commerce and communication, generally requires the
understanding and acceptance of a new way of conducting business and exchanging
information. In particular, enterprises that have already invested substantial
resources in other means of conducting commerce and exchanging information may
be particularly reluctant or slow to adopt a new strategy that may make their
existing personnel and infrastructure obsolete. The failure of the market for
business related Internet solutions to further develop could cause our business,
financial condition and results of operations to suffer.
IF WE DO NOT RESPOND EFFECTIVELY AND ON A TIMELY BASIS TO RAPID
TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE, OUR BUSINESS COULD SUFFER
The Internet connectivity industry is characterized by rapidly changing
technology, industry standards, customer needs and competition, as well as by
frequent new product and service introductions. If we do not successfully use or
develop new technologies, adapt our network infrastructure to changing customer
requirements and industry standards, introduce new services or enhance our
existing services on a timely basis, or if new technologies or enhancements used
or developed by us do not gain market acceptance, our business could be hurt.
While continuing to develop our business model, deploy additional P-NAPs and
offer additional services, our future success will depend, in part, on our
ability to accomplish all of the following in a timely and cost-effective
manner:
- effectively use and integrate leading technologies;
- continue to develop our technical expertise;
- enhance our current Internet connectivity services;
- develop new services that meet changing customer needs;
- achieve significant market acceptance of our services; and
- influence and respond to emerging industry standards and other changes.
We cannot assure you that we will successfully use or develop new
technologies, introduce new services or enhance our existing services on a
timely basis, if at all, or that new technologies or enhancements used or
developed by us will achieve market acceptance. Our pursuit of necessary
technological advances may require substantial time and expense. In addition, we
cannot assure you that, if required, we will successfully adapt our network and
services to alternate access devices and technologies.
If our services do not continue to be compatible and interoperable with
products and architectures offered by other industry members, our ability to
compete could be impaired. Our ability to compete successfully is dependent, in
part, upon the continued compatibility and interoperability of our services with
products and architectures offered by various other industry participants.
Although we intend to support emerging standards in the market for Internet
connectivity, we cannot assure you that we will be able to conform to new
standards in a timely fashion, if at all, or maintain a competitive position in
the market. New technologies and industry standards have the potential to
replace or provide lower cost alternatives to our services. The adoption of such
new technologies or industry standards could render our existing services
obsolete and unmarketable. For example, our services rely on the continued
widespread commercial use of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internetwork
Protocol, commonly known as TCP/IP. Alternative open
16
<PAGE> 26
protocol and proprietary protocol standards could emerge and become widely
adopted. A resulting reduction in the use of TCP/IP could render our services
obsolete and unmarketable. Our failure to anticipate the prevailing standard or
the failure of a common standard to emerge could hurt our business. Further, we
anticipate the introduction of other new technologies, such as voice and fax
over Internet Protocol, virtual private network services, multimedia document
distribution and audio and video streaming, requiring broadband access to the
Internet, but we cannot assure you that such technologies will create
opportunities for us. If alternative technologies are developed that make our
services obsolete, our business, financial condition and results of operations
will be significantly harmed.
WE COULD EXPERIENCE SYSTEM FAILURES AND CAPACITY CONSTRAINTS, WHICH WOULD
AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE
Interruptions in service to our customers could hurt our business. Our
operations depend upon our ability to protect our customers' data and equipment,
our equipment and our network infrastructure, including our connections to our
backbone providers, against damage from human error or "acts of God." Even if we
take precautions, the occurrence of a natural disaster or other unanticipated
problem could result in interruptions in the services we provide to our
customers.
At this time, we do not have a formal disaster recovery plan. Although we
have built redundancy into our network and hosting facilities, our network is
currently subject to various single points of failure. For example, a problem
with one or more of our backbone providers could cause an interruption in the
services we provide to some of our customers. Any interruptions in service
could:
- cause end users to seek damages from us for losses incurred;
- require us to spend more money replacing existing equipment, expanding
facilities or adding redundant facilities;
- cause us to spend money on existing or new equipment and infrastructure
earlier than we plan;
- damage our reputation for reliable service;
- cause existing customers to cancel our service; or
- make it more difficult for us to attract new customers and partners.
Any of these results could hurt our business.
Failure of the backbone providers and other Internet infrastructure
companies to continue to grow in an orderly manner could result in service
interruptions. While the national telecommunications networks and Internet
infrastructures have historically developed in an orderly manner, there is no
guarantee that this will continue as more services, users and equipment connect
to the networks. Failure by our telecommunications and Internet service
providers to provide us with the data communications capacity we require could
cause service interruptions, which could hurt our business.
OUR NETWORK AND SOFTWARE ARE VULNERABLE TO SECURITY BREACHES AND SIMILAR
THREATS WHICH COULD RESULT IN OUR LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES AND HARM OUR
REPUTATION
Despite the implementation of network security measures, the core of our
network infrastructure is vulnerable to computer viruses, break-ins, network
attacks and similar disruptive problems. This could result in our liability for
damages, and our reputation could suffer, thereby deterring potential customers
from working with us. Security problems caused by third parties could lead to
interruptions and delays or to the cessation of service to our customers.
Furthermore, inappropriate use of the network by third parties could also
jeopardize the security of confidential information stored in our computer
systems and in those of our customers.
17
<PAGE> 27
Although we intend to continue to implement industry-standard security
measures, in the past some of these industry-standard measures have occasionally
been circumvented by third parties, although not in our system. Therefore, we
cannot assure you that the measures we implement will not be circumvented. The
costs and resources required to eliminate computer viruses and alleviate other
security problems may result in interruptions, delays or cessation of service to
our customers, which could hurt our business.
CHANGES IN GOVERNMENT REGULATION COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS
There is currently only a small body of laws and regulations directly
applicable to access to or commerce on the Internet. However, due to the
increasing popularity and use of the Internet, international, federal, state and
local governments may adopt laws and regulations which affect the Internet. The
nature of any new laws and regulations and the manner in which existing and new
laws and regulations may be interpreted and enforced cannot be fully determined.
The adoption of any future laws or regulations might decrease the growth of the
Internet, decrease demand for our services, impose taxes or other costly
technical requirements or otherwise increase the cost of doing business on the
Internet or in some other manner have a significantly harmful effect on us or
our customers. The government may also seek to regulate some segments of our
activities as it has with basic telecommunications services. Moreover, the
applicability to the Internet of existing laws governing intellectual property
ownership and infringement, copyright, trademark, trade secret, obscenity,
libel, employment, personal privacy and other issues is uncertain and
developing. We cannot predict the impact, if any, that future regulation or
regulatory changes may have on our business.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR OFFERING
OUR STOCK HAS NO PRIOR TRADING MARKET; YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RESELL YOUR
STOCK AT OR ABOVE THE INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE
Before this offering, there has not been a public trading market for our
common stock and there are no assurances that an active trading market for our
common stock will develop or be sustained after this offering. Further, the
market price of our common stock may decline below our initial public offering
price. The initial public offering price will be determined by negotiations
between the representatives of the underwriters and us. See "Underwriting" for a
discussion of the factors to be considered in determining the initial public
offering price.
INTERNET RELATED STOCK PRICES ARE ESPECIALLY VOLATILE AND THIS VOLATILITY
MAY DEPRESS OUR STOCK PRICE
The stock market and specifically the stock prices of Internet related
companies have been very volatile. This volatility is often not related to the
operating performance of the companies. This broad market volatility and
industry volatility may reduce the price of our common stock, without regard to
our operating performance. Due to this volatility, the market price of our
common stock could significantly decrease.
SIGNIFICANT SHAREHOLDERS AND CURRENT MANAGEMENT WILL CONTROL APPROXIMATELY
% OF OUR COMMON STOCK AFTER THIS OFFERING, AND THESE PARTIES MAY HAVE
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Immediately following this offering, Morgan Stanley Venture Partners III,
L.P. and certain affiliated funds, collectively, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter
Venture Partners, H&Q InterNAP Investors, L.P., Oak Investment Partners VIII,
L.P., Vulcan Ventures Incorporated and Robert J. Lunday, Jr. will beneficially
own approximately %, %, %, % and %, respectively, of
our outstanding common stock. See "Principal Shareholders" and "Underwriters".
In
18
<PAGE> 28
addition, our executive officers and directors may be deemed to beneficially own
in the aggregate approximately % of our outstanding common stock, including
shares of our common stock owned by and Robert J. Lunday, Jr. that may be deemed
to be owned by some of our officers and directors as a result of their
relationships with these entities. Accordingly, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter
Venture Partners, H&Q InterNAP Investors, L.P., Oak Investment Partners VIII,
L.P., Vulcan Ventures Incorporated and Robert J. Lunday, Jr. and our executive
officers and directors, whether acting alone or together, will be able to exert
considerable influence over any stockholder vote, including any vote on the
election or removal of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or
substantially all of our assets, and control our management and affairs. This
control could discourage others from initiating potential merger, takeover or
other change in control transactions. As a consequence, our business could be
hurt. Each of Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Venture Partners, H&Q InterNAP
Investors, L.P., Oak Investment Partners VIII, L.P. and Vulcan Ventures
Incorporated has one representative on our board of directors. In addition,
Robert J. Lunday, Jr. is one of our directors.
FUTURE SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK BY OUR EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS COULD CAUSE
OUR STOCK PRICE TO FALL
If our shareholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock, including
shares issued upon the exercise of outstanding options and warrants, the market
price of our common stock may fall. Such sales might also make it more difficult
for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and
price that we deem appropriate. After completion of this offering, we will have
shares of common stock outstanding, assuming no exercise of
outstanding options or warrants after June 30, 1999. For further information
regarding sales of stock subsequent to this offering, see "Shares Eligible for
Future Sale" and "Underwriting."
OUR MANAGEMENT HAS BROAD DISCRETION IN THE APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS, WHICH
MAY INCREASE THE RISK THAT THE PROCEEDS WILL NOT BE APPLIED EFFECTIVELY
The net proceeds of this offering are not allocated for specific purposes.
Our management will have broad discretion in determining how to spend the
proceeds of this offering and may spend proceeds in a manner that our
shareholders may not deem desirable.
YOU WILL EXPERIENCE IMMEDIATE AND SIGNIFICANT DILUTION OF BOOK VALUE PER
SHARE
The initial public offering price of our common stock will be substantially
higher than the net tangible book value per share of the outstanding common
stock immediately after this offering. Therefore, based upon an assumed initial
public offering price of $ per share, if you purchase our common stock in
this offering, you will incur immediate dilution of approximately $ .
If additional shares are sold by the underwriters following exercise of their
over-allotment option, or if outstanding options or warrants to purchase shares
of common stock are exercised, there will be further dilution.
WE HAVE IMPLEMENTED ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS THAT MAY DISCOURAGE TAKE-OVER
ATTEMPTS AND DEPRESS THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR STOCK
Provisions of our amended and restated articles of incorporation and
by-laws, as amended, as well as provisions of Washington law, may make it more
difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial
to our shareholders. See "Descriptions of Capital Stock" for a discussion of
such anti-takeover provisions.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. These statements
relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you

USE OF PROCEEDS
The net proceeds to be received by us from the sale of
shares of common stock in this offering are estimated to be
$ ($ if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option
in full), at an assumed initial public offering price of $ per share and
after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated
offering expenses payable by us.
We expect to use the net proceeds primarily for capital expenditures
associated with the expansion of our network, and for general corporate
purposes, including working capital. The amounts we actually expend for this
expansion and other purposes may vary significantly and will depend on a number
of factors, including the amount of our future revenues and other factors
described under "Risk Factors." Accordingly, our management will retain broad
discretion in the allocation of the net proceeds of this offering. A portion of
the net proceeds may also be used to acquire or invest in complementary
businesses, technologies, product lines or products. We have no current plans,
agreements or commitments with respect to any acquisitions, and we are not
currently engaged in any negotiations with respect to any such transaction.
Pending these uses, the net proceeds of this offering will be invested in short
term, interest-bearing, investment grade securities.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have never declared nor paid any cash dividends on our capital stock. We
currently intend to retain any future earnings to finance the growth and
development of our business and therefore do not anticipate paying any cash
dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, our loan and security
agreement with a commercial bank prohibits the payment of dividends.

DILUTION
Our pro forma net tangible book value as of June 30, 1999 was approximately
$ million, or approximately $ per share of common stock. Pro forma net
tangible book value per share represents the amount of our total tangible assets
less total liabilities, divided by the number of outstanding shares of common
stock, assuming conversion of all outstanding shares of preferred stock into
common stock. After giving effect to our sale of the shares of
common stock in this offering at an assumed initial public offering price of
$ per share, and our receipt of the estimated net proceeds therefrom, our
pro forma net tangible book value as of June 30, 1999 would have been
approximately $ million, or $ per share. This represents an immediate
increase in net tangible book value of $ per share to existing shareholders
and an immediate dilution of $ per share to new investors. The following
table illustrates this per share dilution:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our
financial statements, including the notes, appearing elsewhere in this
prospectus. Some information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth
below and elsewhere in this prospectus, including information with respect to
our plans and strategy for our business and related financing, includes
forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. See "Risk
Factors" for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results
to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the
forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus.
OVERVIEW
We are a leading provider of fast, reliable and centrally managed Internet
connectivity services targeted at businesses seeking to maximize the performance
of mission-critical Internet-based applications. Customers connected to one of
our P-NAPs have their data optimally routed to and from destinations on the
Internet in a manner that minimizes the use of congested public NAPs and private
peering points. This optimal routing of data traffic over the multiplicity of
networks that comprise the Internet enables higher transmission speeds, lower
instances of packet loss and greater quality of service. As of June 30, 1999, we
provided our high quality Internet connectivity services to approximately 130
customers, including Amazon.com, Fidelity Investments, Go2Net, ITXC, Nasdaq,
TheStreet.com and WebTV Networks.
We were founded in May 1996 and began selling Internet connectivity
services from our first P-NAP, located in Seattle, during October 1996. We began
selling services from our second and third P-NAPs in New York City and San Jose
by December 1998. During the first six months of 1999, we began selling services
from our P-NAPs located in the Washington D.C., Los Angeles, Chicago and Boston
metropolitan areas. In addition, we expect to complete the deployment of five
additional P-NAPs in the United States by the end of 1999, bringing the total
number of revenue-generating P-NAPs to 12 by the end of 1999.
After we decide to open a new P-NAP, we enter into a deployment phase which
typically lasts four to six months, during which time we undertake to complete
the necessary arrangements required to make the P-NAP commercially ready for
service. Among other things, this usually entails obtaining co-location space to
locate our equipment, entering into agreements with backbone providers,
obtaining local loop connections from local telecommunications providers,
building P-NAPs and initiating pre-sales and marketing activities. Consequently,
we usually incur a significant amount of upfront costs related to making a P-NAP
commercially ready for service prior to generating revenues. Therefore, our
results of operations will be negatively affected during times of P-NAP
deployment.
Our customers are primarily businesses that desire high performance
Internet connectivity services in order to run mission-critical Internet-based
applications. Due to our high quality of service we generally price our services
at a premium to providers of conventional Internet connectivity services. We
expect to remain a premium provider of high quality Internet connectivity
services and anticipate continuing our pricing policy in the future. We believe
customers will continue to demand the highest quality of service as their
Internet connectivity needs grow and become even more complex and, as such, will
continue to pay a premium for high quality of service.
Our revenues are generated primarily from the sale of Internet connectivity
services and, to a lesser extent, other ancillary services primarily provided
from our Seattle data center, such as co-location, web hosting and server
management services, and installation services at fixed rate or usage
25
<PAGE> 35
based pricing to our customers that desire a DS-3 or faster connection. We offer
T-1 connections only at a fixed rate. We recognize our revenues when we have
provided the related services.
Network and customer support costs are primarily comprised of the costs for
connecting to and accessing Internet backbone providers, as well as the costs
related to deploying, operating, installing and maintaining P-NAPs and our
network operations center. To the extent a P-NAP is located a distance from the
respective Internet backbone providers, we may incur additional local loop
charges on a recurring basis. Additionally, rental fees and depreciation costs
related to our P-NAPs are included in cost of network and customer support.
Product development costs consist principally of compensation and other
personnel costs, consultant fees and prototype costs related to the design,
development and testing of our proprietary technology, enhancement of our
network management software and development of our internal systems.
Significantly all of our product development costs are expensed as incurred.
Sales and marketing costs consist of compensation, commissions and other
costs for personnel engaged in marketing, sales and field service support
functions, as well as collateral advertising, tradeshows, direct response
programs, new P-NAP launch events, management of our web site and other
promotional costs.
General and administrative costs consist primarily of compensation and
other expenses for executive, finance, human resources and administrative
personnel, professional fees and other general corporate costs.
During the year ended December 31, 1998 and the six months ended June 30,
1999, in connection with the grant of certain stock options to employees, we
recorded deferred stock compensation totaling $16.1 million, representing the
difference between the deemed fair value of our common stock on the date such
options were granted and the exercise price. Such amount is included as a
reduction of shareholders' equity and is being amortized over the vesting period
of the individual options, generally four years, using an accelerated method as
described in Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 28. We
recorded amortization of deferred stock compensation in the amount of $205,000
for the year ended December 31, 1998 and $1.8 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1999. At June 30, 1999, we had a total of $14.1 million remaining to be
amortized over the corresponding vesting periods of the stock options.
The revenue and income potential of our business and market is unproven,
and our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects.
We have only been in existence since 1996, and our services are only offered in
limited regions. We have incurred net losses in each quarterly and annual period
since our inception, and as of June 30, 1999, our accumulated deficit was $25.7
million.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1999
Revenues. Revenues increased from $731,000 for the six-month period ended
June 30, 1998 to $3.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999. This
increase of $2.7 million was primarily due to increased Internet connectivity
revenues. The increase in Internet connectivity revenues was attributable to the
increased sales at our existing P-NAPs and the opening of six additional P-NAPs
during 1999 and the second half of 1998, resulting in a total of seven
operational P-NAPs at June 30, 1999, as compared to one P-NAP at June 30, 1998.
Costs of Network and Customer Support. Costs of network and customer
support increased from $1.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1998
to $7.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999. This increase of
$6.9 million was primarily due to increased connectivity costs related to added
connections to Internet backbone providers at each P-NAP, and to a lesser
extent, increased compensation costs related to our network operations center,
depreciation expense related to the equipment at newly deployed P-NAPs and costs
related to the P-NAP deployment and customer installations. Network and customer
support costs as a percentage of total revenues are generally greater than 100%
for newly deployed P-NAPs, because we purchase Internet connectivity capacity
from the backbone providers in advance of securing new customers. We expect
these costs to increase in absolute dollars as we deploy additional P-NAPs.
Product Development. Product development costs increased from $318,000 for
the six-month period ended June 30, 1998 to $1.4 million for the six-month
period ended June 30, 1999. This increase of $1.1 million was primarily due to
increased compensation costs related to increased head count and administrative
and facility costs for our product development department. We expect product
development costs to increase in absolute dollars for the foreseeable future.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing costs increased from $352,000 for
the six-month period ended June 30, 1998 to $5.9 million for the six-month
period ended June 30, 1999. This increase of $5.5 million was primarily due to
increased compensation costs, and to a lesser extent, facility and
communications costs related to the addition of sales offices. As part of our
expanded sales and marketing activities, we hired a vice president of sales and
marketing during the second quarter of 1998 and additional sales personnel
during 1999 and the second half of 1998.
General and Administrative. General and administrative costs increased from
$594,000 for the six-months ended June 30, 1998 to $2.9 million for the
six-month period ended June 30, 1999. This increase of $2.3 million was
primarily due to increased compensation costs, increased depreciation and
amortization costs due to the addition of corporate office space during the
third quarter of 1998 and professional services costs. We expect general and
administrative costs to increase in absolute dollars as we deploy additional
P-NAPs.
Other Income (Expense). Other income (expense) consists of interest income,
interest and financing expense and other non-operating expenses. Other income,
net, increased from $85,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 1998 to
$303,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999. This increase was
primarily due to interest income earned on the proceeds from the Series C
preferred stock financing, partially offset by increased interest expense on
capital lease obligations.

INCEPTION TO DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998
Revenues. Revenues increased from $44,000 during the period from May 1,
1996 through December 31, 1996 to $1.0 million in 1997 and to $2.0 million in
1998. The increase of $1.0 million in 1997, as compared to the period ended
December 31, 1996, and the increase of $1.0 million in 1998, as compared to
1997, were primarily due to increased Internet connectivity revenues, other
ancillary service revenues and, to a lesser extent, installation fees. The
increase in Internet connectivity revenues was attributable to the deployment of
our first P-NAP at the end of 1996 and of two additional P-NAPs during 1998,
resulting in a total of three operational P-NAPs at December 31, 1998.
Costs of Network and Customer Support. Costs of network and customer
support increased from $321,000 during the period from May 1, 1996 through
December 31, 1996 to $1.1 million in 1997 and to $3.2 million in 1998. Costs of
network and customer support increased by $771,000 in 1997, as compared to the
period ended December 31, 1996, and by $2.1 million in 1998, as compared to
1997. These increases were primarily due to increased connectivity costs related
to added connections to Internet backbone providers at each P-NAP, local loop
costs related to expansion of existing and deployment of new P-NAPs,
depreciation expense related to the equipment at newly deployed P-NAPs and costs
related to renting space for the newly deployed P-NAPs. In addition, the
increase in costs of network and customer support from 1997 to 1998 also
included increased compensation costs related to our network operations center.
Product Development. Product development costs increased from $184,000
during the period from May 1, 1996 through December 31, 1996 to $389,000 in 1997
and to $754,000 in 1998. Product development costs increased by $205,000 in
1997, as compared to the period ended December 31, 1996, and by $365,000 in
1998, as compared to 1997. These increases were primarily due to increased
compensation costs in 1997 and 1998, and increased travel costs related to
developing systems at new
29
<PAGE> 39
P-NAPs, training and support and administrative and facility costs for our
product development department.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing costs increased from $78,000
during the period from May 1, 1996 through December 31, 1996 to $261,000 in 1997
and to $2.8 million in 1998. Sales and marketing costs increased by $183,000 in
1997, as compared to the period ended December 31, 1996 and by $2.5 million in
1998, as compared to 1997. These increases were primarily due to increased
compensation costs, commissions, marketing costs, facility costs related to the
addition of remote sales offices, training and support costs, and travel and
entertainment costs and administrative costs related to developing and
maintaining the sales and marketing departments.
General and Administrative. General and administrative costs increased from
$378,000 during the period from May 1, 1996 through December 31, 1996 to
$713,000 in 1997 and to $1.9 million in 1998. General and administrative costs
increased by $335,000 in 1997, as compared to the period ended 1996 and by $1.2
million in 1998, as compared to 1997. These increases were primarily due to
increased compensation costs, depreciation and amortization, facility costs,
office expense, outside consulting fees, travel costs related to the deployment
of new P-NAPs, communications costs, bad debt expense in 1998 and the subsequent
bankruptcy of a significant customer and an increase in general administrative
costs related to managing our business and operations.
Other Income (Expense). Other expense, net, increased from $42,000 for the
period from May 1, 1996 through December 31, 1996 to $199,000 in 1997 and
decreased to $23,000 in 1998. Other expense, net, increased by $157,000 in 1997
as compared to the period ended December 31, 1996 primarily due to an expense of
$124,000 related to the issuance of warrants to purchase Series B preferred
stock, and additional interest expense on capital lease obligations, partially
offset by additional interest income on the proceeds from the Series B preferred
stock financing. Other expense, net, decreased by $176,000 in 1998 primarily due
to increased interest income earned on the proceeds from the Series B preferred
stock financing, offset by a loss on disposal of assets of $102,000.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
We incurred operating losses from inception through June 30, 1999, and
therefore have not recorded a provision for income taxes. We have recorded a
valuation allowance for the full amount of our net deferred tax assets, as the
future realization of the tax benefit is not currently likely.
As of December 31, 1998, we had net operating loss carry-forwards of $7.2
million. These loss carry-forwards are available to reduce future taxable income
and expire at various dates through 2018. Under the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code, certain substantial changes in our ownership may limit the amount
of net operating loss carry-forwards that could be utilized annually in the
future to offset taxable income.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through the
issuance of our equity securities, capital leases and bank loans. We have raised
an aggregate of approximately $40.7 million, net of offering expenses, through
the sale of our equity securities.
At June 30, 1999, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments
of $13.3 million. We have a revolving line of credit under which we are allowed
to borrow, subject to certain conditions, up to $750,000. At June 30, 1999, we
had drawn $625,000 on the line of credit, with the remaining balance reserved as
collateral for our company credit cards.
30
<PAGE> 40
Net cash used in operations was $13.3 million for the six months ended June
30, 1999. Net cash used in operations was $5.3 million in 1998, $1.1 million in
1997 and $679,000 in the period ended December 31, 1996. Net cash used in
operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was primarily due to net
operating losses, increases in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses,
partially offset by non-cash charges and an increase in accounts payable. Net
cash used in operations for the year ended December 31, 1998 was primarily due
to net operating losses and increases in accounts receivable and prepaid
expenses, partially offset by non-cash charges and increases in accounts payable
and accrued liabilities. Net cash used in operations for the year ended December
31, 1997 was primarily due to net operating losses and accounts receivable,
partially offset by non-cash charges. Net cash used in operations for the period
ended December 31, 1996 was primarily due to operating losses and prepaid
expenses, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable.
Net cash used in investing activities was $14.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1999. Net cash used in investing activities was $702,000 in 1998,
$141,000 in 1997 and $174,000 in the period ended December 31, 1996. Net cash
used in investing activities in each period reflects increased purchases of
property and equipment not financed by capital leases. Purchases of property and
equipment related to P-NAP deployments was primarily financed by capital leases
(such purchases are excluded from the net cash used in investing activities in
the statement of cash flows), and totaled $6.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1999, $3.6 million for the year ended 1998, $260,000 for the year ended
1997, and $740,000 for the period ended December 31, 1996. Additionally, for the
six month period ended June 30, 1999, $10.0 million was used to purchase short-
term investments.
Net cash provided from financing activities was $30.6 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999, $1.5 million in 1998, $5.9 million in 1997 and $1.0
million in the period ended December 31, 1996. Net cash from financing
activities primarily reflects proceeds from the private sales of our equity
securities.
We expect to spend significant additional capital to recruit and train our
customer installation team and the sales force and to build out the sales
facilities related to newly deployed P-NAPs. In addition to P-NAP deployment,
although to a lesser extent, product development and the development of our
internal systems and software will continue to require significant capital
expenditures in the foreseeable future, as will the expansion of our marketing
efforts. We expect to continue to expend significant amounts of capital on
property and equipment related to the expansion of facility infrastructure,
computer equipment and for research and development laboratory and test
equipment to support on-going research and development operations.
We believe that the net proceeds from this offering, together with our cash
and cash equivalents, short-term investments and funds available under the
revolving and capital lease lines will be sufficient to satisfy our cash
requirements for at least the next 12 months. Our management intends to invest
cash in excess of current operating requirements in short-term,
interest-bearing, investment-grade securities.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Substantially all of our cash equivalents, short-term investments and
capital lease obligations are at fixed interest rates, and therefore the fair
value of these instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates.
However, as of June 30, 1999, all of our cash equivalents mature within three
months and all of our short-term investments mature within one year. As of June
30, 1999, we believe the reported amounts of cash equivalents, short-term
investments and capital lease obligations to be reasonable approximations of
their fair values. As a result, we believe that the market risk arising from our
holdings of financial instruments is minimal.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, or SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS No.
133, which will be effective for us for the fiscal years and quarters beginning
after June 15, 2000, requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either
assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those
instruments at fair value. We are assessing the requirements of SFAS No. 133 and
the effects, if any, on our financial position, results of operations and cash
flows.
In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statement of Position 98-5, or SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of
Start-Up Activities." This standard requires companies to expense the costs of
start-up activities and organization costs as incurred. In general, SOP 98-5 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. The adoption of
SOP 98-5 did not have a material impact on our results of operations.
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statement of Position 98-1, or SOP 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." This standard
requires companies to capitalize qualifying computer software costs which are
incurred during the application development stage and amortize them over the
software's estimated useful life. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1998, however early adoption is allowed. We adopted
the requirements of SOP 98-1 during 1998.
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
Many computers, software and other equipment include computer code in which
calendar year data is abbreviated to only two digits. As a result of this design
decision, some of these systems could fail to operate or fail to produce correct
results if "00" is interpreted to mean 1900, rather than 2000. These problems
are widely expected to increase in frequency and severity as the year 2000
approaches, and are commonly referred to as the "Year 2000 problem."
General Readiness Assessment. The Year 2000 problem may affect the network
infrastructure, computers, software and other equipment that we use, operate or
maintain for our operations. As a result, we have formalized our Year 2000
compliance plan, to be implemented by a team of employees, led by our internal
information technology staff, responsible for monitoring the assessment and
remediation status of our Year 2000 projects and reporting their status to the
audit committee of our board of directors. Additionally, according to our Year
2000 compliance plan, the project team has compiled a listing of all
mission-critical items, both internally developed and externally purchased,
which may be impacted by the Year 2000 problem. We are in the process of
obtaining verification or validation from any independent third parties whose
products and services are deemed mission-critical to our processes to assess and
correct any of our Year 2000 problems or the costs associated with these
products and services. We expect to have all third party verifications, or
replacement of the related item, completed by the end of the third quarter of
1999. We believe that we have identified most of the major computers, software
applications and related equipment used in connection with our internal
operations that will need to be evaluated to determine if they must be modified,
upgraded or replaced to minimize the possibility of a material disruption to our
business. We expect to complete this process before the occurrence of any
material disruption of our business.
Assessment of Internal Infrastructure. Beginning in 1998, we began
assessing the ability of our internally developed software, infrastructure and
technologies to operate properly in the year 2000. We believe that our current
internally developed software, infrastructure and technologies are Year
32
<PAGE> 42
2000 compliant. We have completed a testing plan and expect to complete
replacement of any required components by the end of the third quarter of 1999.
Additionally, as we design and develop new products, we subject them to testing
for Year 2000 compliance and the ability to distinguish between various date
formats.
Systems Other than Information Technology Systems. In addition to computers
and related systems, the operation of office and facilities equipment, such as
fax machines, telephone switches, security systems and other common devices may
be affected by the Year 2000 problem. We are currently contacting all related
third party suppliers or testing the related items. We expect to have this
process completed and necessary replacements finished by the end of third
quarter of 1999.
Costs of Remediation. We estimate the total cost of completing any required
modifications, upgrades or replacements of our internal systems will not exceed
$50,000, most of which we expect to incur during calendar 1999. This estimate is
being monitored, and we will revise it as additional information becomes
available.
Based on the activities described above, we do not believe that the Year
2000 problem will significantly harm our business or operating results. In
addition, we have not deferred any material information technology projects, nor
equipment purchases, as a result of our Year 2000 problem activities.
Suppliers. As part of our Year 2000 plan, we intend to contact third-party
suppliers of components used in the delivery of our services to identify and, to
the extent possible, resolve issues involving the Year 2000 problem. However, we
have limited or no control over the actions of these third-party suppliers.
Thus, while we expect that we will be able to resolve any significant Year 2000
problems with these third parties, there can be no assurance that these
suppliers will resolve any or all Year 2000 problems before the occurrence of a
material disruption to the operation of our business. Any failure of these third
parties to timely resolve Year 2000 problems with their systems could
significantly harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Most Likely Consequences of Year 2000 Problems. We expect to identify and
resolve all Year 2000 problems that could significantly harm our business
operations. However, we believe that it is not possible to determine with
complete certainty that all Year 2000 problems affecting us have been identified
or corrected. The number of devices and systems that could be affected and the
interactions among these devices and systems are too numerous to address. In
addition, no one can accurately predict which Year 2000 problem-related failures
will occur or the severity, timing, duration, or financial consequences of these
potential failures. As a result, we believe that the following consequences are
possible:
- a significant number of operational inconveniences and inefficiencies for
us, our suppliers and our customers that will divert management's time
and attention and financial and human resources from ordinary business
activities;
- possible business disputes and claims, including claims under our quality
of service warranty, due to Year 2000 problems experienced by our
customers and incorrectly attributed to our services or performance,
which we believe will be resolved in the ordinary course of business; and
- a few serious business disputes alleging that we failed to comply with
the terms of contracts or industry standards of performance, some of
which could result in litigation or contract termination.
Contingency Plans. We are currently developing contingency plans to be
implemented if our efforts to identify and correct Year 2000 problems affecting
our internal systems are not effective. We
33
<PAGE> 43
expect to complete our contingency plans by the end of the third quarter of
1999. Depending on the systems affected, these plans could include:
- accelerated replacement of affected equipment or software;
- short to medium-term use of backup equipment and software or other
redundant systems;
- increased work hours for our personnel or the hiring of additional
information technology staff; and
- the use of contract personnel to correct, on an accelerated basis, any
Year 2000 problems that arise or to provide interim alternate solutions
for information system deficiencies.
Our implementation of any of these contingency plans could significantly
harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
InterNAP is a leading provider of fast, reliable and centrally managed
Internet connectivity services targeted at businesses seeking to maximize the
performance of mission-critical Internet-based applications. Customers connected
to one of our Private-Network Access Points, or P-NAPs, have their data
optimally routed to and from destinations on the Internet in a manner that
minimizes the use of congested public NAPs and private peering points. This
optimal routing of data traffic over the multiplicity of networks that comprise
the Internet enables higher transmission speeds, lower instances of data packet
loss and greater quality of service than services offered by conventional
Internet connectivity providers. As of June 30, 1999, we provided consistent
high performance Internet connectivity services to approximately 130 customers,
including Amazon.com, Fidelity Investments, Go2Net, ITXC, Nasdaq, TheStreet.com
and WebTV.
We offer our high performance Internet connectivity services at dedicated
line speeds of 1.5 Megabits per second, or Mbps, to 155 Mbps to customers
desiring a superior level of Internet performance. We provide our high
performance connectivity services through the deployment of P-NAPs, which are
highly redundant network infrastructure facilities coupled with our proprietary
routing technology. P-NAPs maintain high speed, dedicated connections to major
global Internet networks, commonly referred to as backbones, such as AGIS, AT&T,
Cable & Wireless USA, GTE Internetworking, ICG Communications, Intermedia,
PSINet, Sprint, UUNET and Verio. In addition, we have entered into a traffic
exchange interconnect agreement with America Online, Inc. which provides us
direct access to AOL's network of over 19 million members. We currently operate
seven P-NAPs which are located in the Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York,
San Jose, Seattle and Washington, D.C. metropolitan areas. We expect to complete
the deployment of an additional five P-NAPs in the United States by the end of
1999.
We believe that our P-NAPs provide a quality of service over the public
Internet enabling our customers to realize the full potential of their existing
Internet-based applications, such as e-commerce and on-line trading. In
addition, we believe our P-NAPs will enable our customers to take advantage of
new services, such as voice and fax over Internet Protocol, virtual private
network services, multimedia document distribution and audio and video
streaming.
INDUSTRY BACKGROUND
THE GROWING IMPORTANCE OF THE INTERNET FOR MISSION-CRITICAL INTERNET-BASED
APPLICATIONS
The Internet has emerged as a global medium for communications and
commerce. The growth in data that is transmitted over the Internet, or data
traffic, is driven by a number of factors, including the rapidly increasing
number of network-enabled and Internet-based applications, the growing number of
personal computers linked to the Internet, improvements in network-enabled
devices, servers and routers, and the increasing availability of broadband
connections. As an illustration of this growth, Pioneer Consulting, LLC
estimates that Internet bandwidth demand in North America will grow from 175
Gigabits per second in 1998 to 2,990 Gigabits per second in 2003, representing a
76% compound annual growth rate.
Once primarily used for e-mail and retrieving information, the Internet is
now being used as a communications platform for an increasing number of
mission-critical Internet-based applications, such as those relating to
electronic commerce, virtual private networks, voice and fax over Internet
Protocol, supply chain management, customer service and project coordination. To
improve the
35
<PAGE> 45
effectiveness of their mission-critical Internet-based applications, businesses
are requiring increasing levels of network performance, including speed,
reliability and manageability, across the Internet.
The loss of data as it is transmitted over the Internet, or data packet
loss, and inefficiencies in transferring data across the Internet are
fundamental causes of unsatisfactory performance of Internet-based applications.
Many of these problems are caused by the architectural shortcomings of the
Internet that have led to the largely unorchestrated transfer of data traffic
from one commercially run network to another. The recent increases in network
capacity and improvements in the performance of network devices fail to address
many of the problems associated with exchanging data between the multiple
networks which comprise the Internet. Further, the popularity of the Internet
has resulted in an ever-increasing number of users transmitting rapidly
increasing volumes of data across the Internet.
THE EMERGENCE OF MULTIPLE INTERNET BACKBONES
The Internet originated as a restricted network designed to provide
efficient and reliable long distance data communications among the disparate
computer systems used by government funded researchers and organizations. As
businesses began to use the Internet for functions critical to their core
strategies, telecommunications companies established additional networks, or
backbones, to supplement the original public infrastructure and satisfy this
increasing demand. In this way, the original public Internet infrastructure has
grown into a "network of networks" run by numerous commercial telecommunications
companies, each of which manages its own backbone. Currently, the Internet is a
global collection of hundreds of interconnected computer networks. Of these
networks, approximately a dozen commercial backbones contain the majority of the
global addressable routes on the Internet. These backbones were developed at
great expense but are nonetheless constrained by the fundamental limitations of
the Internet's architecture. They must connect to one another, or peer, to
permit their customers to communicate with each other. Consequently, many
backbone providers have agreed to exchange large volumes of data traffic through
a limited number of public NAPs.
Five major public NAPs are in use today, including the Metropolitan Area
Exchange East, or MAE East, near Washington, D.C. and MAE West in San Jose. The
public NAPs are not centrally managed and no single entity has the economic
incentive or ability to facilitate problem resolution, to optimize peering
within the public NAPs or to bring about centralized routing administration. As
a consequence of the lack of coordination among backbones at these public
peering points and in order to avoid the increasing congestion and resulting
data packet loss at the public NAPs, a number of the backbone providers have
established private interfaces connecting pairs of backbones for the exchange of
traffic. Although private peering arrangements are helpful for exchanging
traffic, they do not overcome the structural and economic shortcomings of the
Internet.
THE PROBLEM OF INEFFICIENT ROUTING OF DATA TRAFFIC ON THE INTERNET
Data packet loss is a fundamental cause of the slowness and unreliability
that are characteristic of the Internet today. Data packet loss occurs when the
devices handling data lose track of packets before they can be transferred, or
routed, to their destination. When this occurs, the computer that originally
sent a lost packet will resend it until it receives confirmation of receipt by
the destination device, thus compounding the congestion. Data packet loss most
frequently occurs at Internet exchange points, such as public NAPs and private
peering points. We believe that packet loss at the public NAPs can exceed 20%
during peak hours. This can have a dramatic impact on the effective speed at
which data is transmitted over the Internet. For example, according to an
industry source, downloading a file from a web site under conditions with 1%
data packet loss can take up to twice as long as doing so when there is no data
packet loss.
36
<PAGE> 46
Due to the Internet's lack of central management, there is no organized
mechanism to route traffic to avoid congestion at the public NAPs and private
peering points. The individual backbone providers only control the routing of
data packets within their backbones, and their routing practices tend to
compound the inefficiency of the Internet. When a backbone provider receives a
packet that is not destined for one of its own customers, it must route it to
another backbone provider to complete the delivery of the packet on the
Internet.
Since the use of a public NAP or a private peering point typically involves
no economic settlement, a backbone provider will often route the data packet to
the nearest point of traffic exchange, in an effort to get the packet off its
network and onto a competitor's backbone as quickly as possible. In this manner,
the backbone provider reduces capacity and management burdens on its transport
network. Consequently, in order to complete a communication, data packets
ordinarily pass through multiple networks and peering points without regard to
congestion or other factors that inhibit performance. Further, once a data
packet leaves a backbone destined for another network, the backbone provider has
no way of controlling the quality of the end-to-end connection. As a result, it
is virtually impossible for a single backbone provider to offer a high quality
of service across disparate networks. For customers of conventional Internet
connectivity providers, this results in lost data packets, slower and more
erratic transmission speeds, and an overall lower quality of service. Equally
important, these customers have no control over these arrangements and have no
single point of contact that they can hold accountable for any decrease in
service levels, such as poor data transmission performance. An example of
routing over the Internet is depicted in the figure below.
[GRAPHIC]
The Internet is rapidly becoming a critically important medium for
communications and commerce. However, businesses are unable to benefit from the
full potential of the Internet primarily because peering and routing practices,
current routing technologies, and the Internet's architecture were not designed
to support today's large and rapidly growing volume of traffic. We believe the
emergence of technologies and applications that rely on network quality and
require consistent and high speed data transfer, such as voice and fax over
Internet Protocol, virtual private network services, multimedia document
distribution and audio and video streaming, will be hindered by the performance
problems of the Internet. We also believe the future of Internet connectivity
services will
37
<PAGE> 47
be driven by providers that, through high performance Internet routing services,
provide consistent high quality of service and enable businesses to successfully
execute their mission-critical Internet-based applications over the public
network infrastructures.
THE INTERNAP SOLUTION
We are a leading provider of fast, reliable and centrally managed Internet
connectivity services targeted at businesses seeking to maximize the performance
of mission-critical Internet-based applications. Utilizing our proprietary
network architecture and advanced routing technologies, we route our customers'
data in an optimal manner over the Internet. We currently operate seven P-NAPs
across the United States. Our P-NAP network model is depicted below:
[GRAPHIC]
By connecting to one of our P-NAPs, mission-critical inbound and outbound
data transmissions travel an optimal route to and from destinations on the
Internet. This optimal routing of data traffic over the Internet enables higher
transmission speeds, lower instances of data packet loss and greater quality of
service. Our high performance Internet connectivity services provide the
following key advantages:
High Performance Connectivity. We route our customers' traffic over the
Internet in a way that we believe provides consistently greater speed, along
with superior end-to-end control, predictability and reliability, than services
offered by conventional Internet connectivity providers. Our P-NAPs have
high-speed, direct connections to major global Internet backbones. Our
proprietary technology may be used to route data packets directly to the
Internet backbone on which a given destination resides, thereby giving our
customers direct access to the destination network for a large majority of
global Internet addresses. This network architecture combined with our
proprietary routing technology generally bypasses congested public NAPs and
private peering points, reduces data packet loss and improves reliability and
performance for our customers to any of our multiple backbone connections. In
addition, customers directly connected to the same P-NAP get one-hop access when
communicating with each other, completely avoiding the public Internet.
38
<PAGE> 48
We use multiple connections to major backbones to create our own virtual
backbone, instead of owning or operating an expensive long-haul backbone
infrastructure. As a result, we can offer customers improved service levels by
optimally routing traffic between any two P-NAPs using our virtual backbone.
Consequently, any customer connected to any P-NAP will experience optimal public
backbone network performance in communicating with any other customer connected
to any other P-NAP. A model of InterNAP's virtual backbone created between any
two P-NAPs is depicted below:
[GRAPHIC]
Highly Reliable Network Architecture. P-NAPs are designed with a highly
redundant network infrastructure, including multiple local loop connections from
multiple carriers. This design minimizes interruptions of network operations. If
a backbone network connected to a P-NAP should fail, we can instantly reroute
data using any of the remaining networks connected to the P-NAP. As a result,
our customers experience more reliable services and are less likely to need and
pay for redundant Internet backbone connections.
Superior Route Optimization and Management. Our proprietary routing
technology and network management system provide us with data that enables us to
manage network traffic and to offer economic settlements to backbone providers
for the transfer of our customers' data packets. As a result, we are able to
obtain full sets of global Internet Protocol routes from each backbone provider
connected to a P-NAP, and choose from among these routes the most optimal route
for our customers' traffic. We are therefore able to hold all of our backbone
providers accountable for performance within their respective networks. In
addition, because we manage all backbone connections into and out of each P-NAP,
we are able to centrally forecast and plan for upgrades. We believe this
consistently provides our customers with better service and minimizes congestion
and data packet loss for all of the backbones to which our P-NAPs are connected.
Scalability and Flexibility. Our Internet connectivity services are
designed to be scalable and flexible. Since P-NAPs are localized
infrastructures, not long haul backbones, we can manage capacity issues and
traffic flows for each backbone provider at each P-NAP separately. Unlike a
39
<PAGE> 49
backbone provider, we do not need to make uniform capacity upgrades across an
entire network as traffic levels increase. Furthermore, an upgrade to one
backbone provider does not require similar upgrades to all backbones connected
to a P-NAP or upgrades throughout our system of P-NAPs. This allows us to more
readily scale our capacity as traffic levels increase.
Superior Customer Service and Support. Our network operations center is
staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, by skilled engineers. Equipped with
sophisticated traffic management reporting and diagnostic tools, they provide
our customers with a single point of contact for support inquiries, network
troubleshooting and diagnosis. The network operations center constantly monitors
the operation of all our P-NAPs, as well as the backbones connected to them, and
provides our customers and backbone providers with real-time notification and
management of events that might affect service, such as network congestion,
equipment failures and network or power outages. Given the overall complexity of
our technology and our highly skilled engineers, we believe that our customer
support services create a significant barrier to entry for competitors. In
addition, since we are a paying customer of each backbone provider connected to
a P-NAP, we believe we can get better response times, service level agreements
and trouble ticket resolution than Internet service providers that rely on free
public peering arrangements.
STRATEGY
Our objective is to be the leading provider of high performance Internet
connectivity services that enable businesses to run mission-critical
Internet-based applications and to establish and maintain the standard of
quality for Internet connectivity services. We are committed to attracting,
hiring and retaining exceptional employees at all levels of our organization in
order to realize these objectives. Key components of our strategy include:
Enhance Our Core Technologies to Provide the Highest Performance Internet
Connectivity Services. We plan to continue developing our P-NAPs, as well as our
network operations center, to enhance the level of service we provide to our
customers. Our P-NAPs and network operations center have been designed to allow
expansion of the features and functionalities of our services and have the
scalability required to meet the growing needs of customers. We believe that
enhancements to our proprietary technologies are integral to our ability to
continue to penetrate new markets and to provide new value-added services to
existing customers. For example, we intend to use the intelligent routing
capabilities of our P-NAPs to enable our customers to take advantage of new
services such as voice and fax over Internet Protocol, virtual private network
services, multimedia document distribution and audio and video streaming.
Continue to Provide Superior Customer Service and Support. We intend to
continue providing our customers with superior customer service and support
24-hours a day, seven days a week. We believe that we can continue to improve
our competitive position by supporting our service with our highly-skilled
engineers, sophisticated traffic management reporting and diagnostic tools, and
network operations center. To reduce the risk of service interruptions, we plan
to build a second network operations center that will also monitor all of our
P-NAPs. We intend to use our status as a paying customer of the major backbone
providers to obtain a higher level of service which we can pass on to our
customers.
Expand Our Geographic Coverage in Key Markets. We currently offer our
services through our P-NAPs in seven key metropolitan areas across the United
States and intend to aggressively deploy P-NAPs in key markets across the United
States and internationally. As part of our deployment plan, we expect to
complete the deployment of five additional P-NAPs in the United States by the
end of 1999.
40
<PAGE> 50
Continue to Build Our Brand Awareness. We intend to aggressively build our
customer base by increasing awareness of the InterNAP brand. We believe that
associating our brand with a high quality of service is key to the expansion of
our customer base. As we grow in size, we intend to invest in building brand
awareness through a marketing plan that includes P-NAP launch events, trade
shows, speaking events and media appearances, news announcements, advertisements
and customer testimonials.
Continue to Target Strategic Markets. We intend to expand our sales and
marketing activities by continuing to focus on five strategic market segments,
including high technology, e-commerce and retail, communication providers,
financial services, and entertainment and publishing. The businesses in these
market segments are characterized by early adoption of Internet services and a
need for fast, reliable and manageable Internet connectivity services. By
focusing on specific strategic markets we expect to be able to leverage our
industry knowledge and highly experienced sales force to extend our market
reach. We also intend to expand our indirect sales channels by partnering with
leading resellers with strong backgrounds and market presence in these markets.
Maintain Backbone Provider Neutrality. At each P-NAP, we have connections
with at least four major backbone providers. In order to provide one-hop service
to a large majority of Internet destinations, we must maintain high-volume
connections with major backbone providers. We plan to continue to do this as new
backbone providers emerge, as existing backbone providers increase in market
size in the metropolitan areas where our P-NAPs are located and as global
Internet traffic patterns change. We do not favor one backbone provider over
another, but rather use our proprietary technology to route packets directly to
the backbone on which an Internet destination is located. We believe this
provides substantial benefits to all backbone providers to whom we connect,
because we deliver only packets destined for each backbone provider's customers,
thus improving the efficiencies of their infrastructure.
CUSTOMERS
We have established a diversified base of customers across a wide range of
industries. As of June 30, 1999, we had approximately 130 customers. The
following is a list of selected customers whose monthly bill was between $5,000
and $89,000 for June 1999:

</TABLE>
We offer superior customer service and support from our network operations
center staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week by highly skilled network
engineers who use our sophisticated traffic management reporting and diagnostic
tools. As of June 30, 1999, we had 92 employees dedicated to customer service,
network support and P-NAP engineering. Our customer service personnel are also
available to assist customers whose operations require specialized procedures.
Our customer contracts generally cover the provision of services for a one
to three year period and may contain service level warranties. To date, none of
our customers has utilized this warranty to receive a credit for a period of
free service. We have had limited contract renewal experience with customers
whose initial service contract terms have expired.

<PAGE> 51
SERVICES
We offer Internet connectivity services to our customers over T-1, DS-3 and
OC-3 connections at speeds ranging from 1.5 Mbps to 155 Mbps. Our list prices
for a single connection range from $2,695 to $193,320 per month depending on the
connection purchased. Customers who connect to a P-NAP with a DS-3 or faster
connection have a choice of fixed rate pricing or usage based pricing.
Otherwise, customers pay a fixed fee for our Internet connectivity services.
Usage based pricing varies according to the volume of data sent and received
over the connection.
Customers that have networking equipment or servers located within P-NAP
facilities may connect directly to the P-NAP using standard Ethernet connections
with speeds ranging from 10 Mbps to 200 Mbps. We also offer our customers
additional value added services, including:
- InterNAP Diversity Plus. Our Diversity Plus service allows customers to
maintain multiple connections to InterNAP and other backbone providers
while still taking advantage of the optimal routing capabilities of the
P-NAP. In a typical Diversity Plus configuration, the customer has a
connection to a P-NAP and to one or more backbone providers of their
choice. The customer's router is configured using our proprietary routing
technology to route packets addressed to Internet destinations located on
the alternate provider's backbone through the customer's direct
connection while other packets are routed to the P-NAP. In this manner,
the customer can use redundant Internet connections, while also taking
advantage of the unique features of the P-NAP.
- Connections to Data Centers. Many of our customers have their servers
located at third party data centers. We connect to these customers either
by establishing a circuit directly to their routers or through a
connection we have with the network maintained by the third party data
center operator. We have our own data center in our Seattle P-NAP at
which a number of our customers have co-located their servers.
- Installation Services. We perform installation services necessary to
connect our customers' networks to our P-NAPs.
TECHNOLOGY
P-NAP Architecture. The P-NAP architecture was engineered as a redundant,
fault tolerant, scalable, production quality network access point. We currently
use two primary P-NAP configurations. The P-NAP network design shown below
represents the base configuration that is installed when a new P-NAP is deployed
in a market. Type II P-NAPs support customer connectivity up to full DS-3 and
100 Mbps fast Ethernet, while Type III P-NAPs support up to 155 Mbps OC-3. As
shown in this figure, multiple redundant, full duplex fast Ethernet or Gigabit
Ethernet connections between each router and the backbone switches are part of
the standard P-NAP configuration. Customer connection routers, or border
routers, as well as core routers each have more than one path from a P-NAP to
each other router and backbone connection, thus providing redundancy in the face
of failure of one or more of the paths. Backbone network connections are divided
among multiple core routers for redundancy and load balancing purposes. In the
event of a
42
<PAGE> 52
core router failure, there is sufficient equipment and backbone provider
capacity to accommodate all of the P-NAP's traffic and to continue to route
traffic optimally.
[DIAGRAM]
The P-NAP architecture is designed to scale to the demands of customers
terminating on border routers as well as the demands of backbone providers
connected to the core routers. Our P-NAP model provides for the addition of
significant backbone providers to the core router fabric, as necessary. The
P-NAP architecture is also designed so that:
- a hot spare of each individual piece of P-NAP equipment also runs live in
the P-NAP for redundancy purposes;
- failure of a border router is transparent to the servers, because all
critical servers are duplicated among multiple local area networks within
the P-NAP where each local area network is connected to two border
routers; and
- all critical Internet services are duplicated among multiple P-NAP
servers.
Every network device is also connected to the network via a terminal server
connection to the console to facilitate problem resolution. This allows for
additional access to any malfunctioning device and also provides a means of
retrieving potentially useful information to help isolate and prevent future
recurrences of similar problems. This form of redundancy is vital to maintaining
and building a high quality production environment.
43
<PAGE> 53
InterNAP only co-locates P-NAPs within central office grade facilities. All
P-NAP facilities are equipped with battery backup and emergency generators, as
well as dual heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.
ASsimilator Routing Technology. ASsimilator technology is an automated
system for Internet Protocol route management that interfaces with the P-NAP
infrastructure to provide the high performance routing service characteristics
of the P-NAP. The system is a seamless integration of databases, topology
locator algorithms, automated router configuration processes and route
verification methods.
ASsimilator periodically downloads the global routing tables being
advertised by all of the backbone networks touching the P-NAP. It then
automatically determines exactly which Internet Protocol routes are attached to
which networks and assesses how the world of Internet Protocol addresses are
connected to the Internet. ASsimilator then configures the Border Gateway
Protocol, the primary routing Protocol of the Internet, within the routers so
that they will route Internet Protocol packets to their intended destination
backbone in normal instances as well as in failure scenarios. A verification
system also allows ASsimilator to monitor the routing of packets, and if routing
is found to be suboptimal, adjustments can be made to optimize routing.
ASsimilator controls both outbound routing to a backbone network from the P-NAP
as well as inbound routing from a backbone network.
Distributed Network Management System. We have developed a highly scalable
proprietary network management system optimized for distributed network
monitoring of P-NAPs. With the use of our distributed network management system,
our network operations center is capable of real-time monitoring of the
backbones connected to each P-NAP, customer circuits, network devices and
servers 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The distributed network management
system provides our network operations center with proactive trouble
notification, allowing for real-time identification and handling of problems,
frequently before our customers become aware of network problems. The
distributed network management system also captures and provides capacity usage
reports for billing and customer reports. Data provided by the distributed
network management system is an integral part of our capacity planning and
provisioning process, helping us to forecast and plan upgrades before capacity
becomes strained.
SALES AND MARKETING
Our sales and marketing objective is to achieve broad market penetration
and increase brand name recognition by targeting enterprises that depend upon
the Internet for mission-critical operations. As of June 30, 1999, we had 50
employees engaged in direct sales and sales management, 17 in sales
administration and support, 13 in technical support and 12 in marketing located
in 10 cities.
Sales. We have developed a direct high-end sales organization with managers
who have an average of over 15 years of relevant sales experience and
representatives who have many years of relevant sales experience with a broad
range of telecommunications and technology companies. In addition, our highly
trained technical sales engineers and client interaction engineers, who
facilitate optimal routing solutions for our customers, are responsible for
generating recurring sales revenues and serve to complement our sales force.
When we deploy a new P-NAP, we set up a dedicated team of sales representatives
and engineers focused exclusively on that market. We believe this localized
direct sales approach allows us to respond to regional competitive
characteristics, educate customers, and identify and close business
opportunities better than a centralized sales force. We are also developing an
indirect sales channel for our products and services through relationships with
content
44
<PAGE> 54
developers, cable companies, DSL service providers, consulting companies and
Internet service providers.
Marketing. Our marketing efforts are designed to help educate customers in
our targeted vertical markets to understand that a service provider is now
available that can provide a quality of service over the entire Internet that
enables them to launch and execute mission-critical Internet-based applications.
Our marketing activities have included collateral advertising, tradeshows,
direct response programs, new P-NAP launch events and management of our Web
site. These programs are targeted at key information technology executives as
well as senior marketing and finance managers. In addition, we conduct
comprehensive public relations efforts focused on cultivating industry analyst
and media relationships with the goal of securing broad media coverage and
public recognition of our proprietary high speed public Internet communications
solutions.
Our marketing organization is responsible for expanding our value added
service offerings into horizontal markets as new capacity intensive applications
such as voice and fax over Internet Protocol, virtual private network services,
multimedia document distribution, audio and video streaming and other emerging
technologies are introduced.
COMPETITION
The Internet-based connectivity services market is extremely competitive.
Many of our competitors have greater market presence, engineering and marketing
capabilities, and financial, technological and personnel resources than we do.
Our competitors include:
- backbone providers that provide us connectivity services including AGIS,
AT&T, Cable & Wireless USA, GTE Internetworking, ICG Communications,
Intermedia, PSINet, Sprint, UUNET and Verio;
- regional Bell operating companies which offer Internet access; and
- global, national and regional Internet service providers.
Because relatively low barriers to entry characterize our market, we expect
other companies to enter our market. In addition, if we are successful in
implementing our international expansion, we will encounter additional
competition from international Internet service providers as well as
international telecommunication companies. As new participants enter the
Internet connectivity services market, we will face increased competition. Such
new competitors could include computer hardware, software, media and other
technology and telecommunications companies. A number of telecommunications
companies and online service providers currently offer, or have announced plans
to offer or expand, their network services. Other companies have expanded their
Internet access products and services as a result of acquisitions. Further, the
ability of some of our competitors to bundle other services and products with
their network services could place us at a competitive disadvantage. Various
companies are also exploring the possibility of providing, or are currently
providing, high-speed data services using alternative delivery methods. In
addition, Internet backbone providers may make technological developments, such
as improved router technology, that will enhance the quality of their services.
We believe that the principal competitive factors in our market are speed
and reliability of connectivity, quality of facilities, level of customer
service and technical support, price, brand recognition, the effectiveness of
sales and marketing efforts, and the timing and market acceptance of new
solutions and enhancements to existing solutions developed by us and our
competitors. We believe that we presently are positioned to compete favorably
with respect to most of these factors. In particular, many of our competitors
have built and must maintain capital-intensive backbone
45
<PAGE> 55
infrastructures that are highly dependent on traditional public and private
peering exchanges. Each backbone provider tries to offer high quality service
within its own network but is unable to guarantee a service quality once a data
packet leaves its network, and there is little incentive to optimize the
interoperability of traffic between networks. We actively route traffic in an
optimal manner, thereby providing customers with a high level of service and
increasing the efficiency of the backbone providers themselves. However, the
market for Internet connectivity services is evolving rapidly, and we cannot
assure you that we will compete successfully in the future. As a result, we may
not maintain a competitive position against current or future competitors. See
"Risk Factors -- We Operate in an Extremely Competitive Market, and We May Not
Be Able to Compete Effectively Against Our Many Competitors."
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret and
other intellectual property law, nondisclosure agreements and other protective
measures to protect our proprietary technology. InterNAP and P-NAP are
registered United States trademarks of InterNAP. The United States Patent and
Trademark Office has recently notified us that it has allowed the claims in our
initial patent application. Additional claims that were included by amendment in
that application are still pending. In addition, we have filed an international
patent application under the Patent Cooperation Treaty.
We also enter into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with
our employees and consultants and control access to and distribution of our
proprietary information. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights,
departing employees and other unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or
otherwise obtain and use our products and technology. Monitoring unauthorized
use of our products and technology is difficult, and we cannot be certain that
the steps we have taken will prevent misappropriation of our technology,
particularly in foreign countries where the laws may not protect our proprietary
rights as fully as in the United States.
From time to time, third parties may assert patent, copyright, trademark
and other intellectual property rights claims or initiate litigation against us
or our suppliers or customers with respect to existing or future products and
services. Although we have not been a party to any claims alleging infringement
or intellectual property rights, we cannot assure you that we will not be
subject to these claims in the future. Further, we may in the future initiate
claims or litigation against third parties for infringement of our proprietary
rights to determine the scope and validity of our proprietary rights or those of
our competitors. Any of these claims, with or without merit, may be
time-consuming, result in costly litigation and diversion of technical and
management personnel or require us to cease using infringing technology, develop
noninfringing technology or enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such
royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on acceptable
terms, if at all. In the event of a successful claim of infringement and our
failure or inability to develop noninfringing technology or license the
infringed or similar technology on a timely basis, our business and results of
operations may be seriously harmed.
EMPLOYEES
As of June 30, 1999, we employed 221 full-time persons, 12 of whom were
engaged in product development, 92 in sales and marketing, 92 in professional
services and 25 in finance, administration and operations. None of our employees
is represented by a labor union, and we have not experienced any work stoppages
to date. We consider our employee relations to be good.

<PAGE> 56
FACILITIES
Our executive offices are located in Seattle, Washington and consist of
approximately 20,700 square feet that are leased under an agreement that expires
in 2003. On July 1, 1999, we entered into a third amendment to our lease
increasing our total square footage to approximately 74,100 square feet as of
October 1, 1999. We lease facilities for our network operations center, sales
offices and P-NAPs in a number of metropolitan areas and specific cities. We
believe that our existing facilities, including the additional space, are
adequate for our current needs and that suitable additional or alternative space
will be available in the future on commercially reasonable terms as needed.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims
arising out of our ordinary course of business. We are not currently involved in
any material legal proceedings.

BOARD COMPOSITION
Upon the closing of this offering, we will have authorized a range of
directors from five to nine. In accordance with the terms of our amended
articles of incorporation, the terms of office of the board of directors will be
divided into three classes:
- Class I directors, whose term will expire at the annual meeting of
shareholders to be held in 2000;
- Class II directors, whose term will expire at the annual meeting of
shareholders to be held in 2001; and
- Class III directors, whose term will expire at the annual meeting of
shareholders to be held in 2002.
Our Class I directors will be Robert J. Lunday, Jr. and Robert D.
Shurtleff, Jr., our Class II directors will be Frederic W. Harman and Kevin L.
Ober, and our Class III directors will be Eugene Eidenberg, William J. Harding
and Anthony C. Naughtin. At each annual meeting of shareholders after the
initial classification, the successors to directors whose terms will then expire
will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the
third annual meeting following election. 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 directors. This classification of our board of directors may have the effect
of delaying or preventing a change in control or management of InterNAP.
COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The board of directors has established an audit committee and a
compensation committee. Our audit committee consists of Kevin L. Ober, Frederic
W. Harman and William J. Harding. The audit committee reviews our internal
accounting procedures and consults with and reviews the services provided by our
independent accountants.
Our compensation committee consists of Kevin L. Ober, Robert J. Lunday, Jr.
and Robert D. Shurtleff, Jr. The compensation committee reviews and recommends
to the board of directors the compensation and benefits of all our officers and
establishes and reviews general policies relating to compensation and benefits
for our employees.

<PAGE> 60
BOARD-COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
None of our executive officers serves as a member of the board of directors
or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers
serving as a member of our board of directors or compensation committee.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Our directors currently do not receive any cash compensation for their
services on the board of directors or any committees of the board. They are
reimbursed for certain expenses in connection with attendance at board and
committee meetings. From time to time, certain non-employee directors have
received grants of options to purchase shares of our common stock. In March
1998, Messrs. Eidenberg and Ober each were granted an option to purchase 200,000
shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $.06 per share. Non-employee
directors are expected to receive an initial option to purchase 40,000 shares of
common stock and an annual option to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock
under our 1999 non-employee directors' stock option plan.

Twenty-five percent of these options vest on the first anniversary of the
date of hire and the remainder vest in equal installments each month over the
three-year period following the first anniversary of the date of hire. Options
were granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common
stock, as determined by the board of directors on the date of grant.
The 5% and 10% assumed annual rates of compounded stock price appreciation
are mandated by rules of the SEC. There can be no assurance provided to any
executive officer or any other holder of our securities that the actual stock

or at any other defined level.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
We have entered into employment letter agreements with several of our
officers, including Anthony C. Naughtin, Paul E. McBride, Christopher D. Wheeler
and Charles M. Ortega. Each letter agreement sets forth the officer's
compensation level. Under each letter agreement an officer serves at-will and
employment may be terminated by us or by the officer at any time, with or
without cause and with or without notice. Each employment agreement contains a
noncompetition covenant one year in duration.

INCENTIVE STOCK PLANS
1998 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan. Our board of directors adopted our
1998 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan on February 2, 1998 and our shareholders
approved it on March 1, 1998. On January 19, 1999, our board reserved an
additional 1,000,000 shares for option grants under the 1998 Plan, which the
shareholders approved on January 26, 1999. We have reserved a total of 5,035,000
shares for issuance under the 1998 Plan. As of June 30, 1999, 695,082 shares had
been issued upon the exercise of options granted under the 1998 Plan and options
to purchase 4,132,622 shares were outstanding, with 207,296 shares reserved for
future grants or purchases under the 1998 Plan. Options currently outstanding
under the 1998 Plan will continue in full force and effect under the terms of
the 1998 Plan until such outstanding options are exercised or terminated in
accordance with their terms.
The 1998 Plan provides for grants of incentive stock options that qualify
under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and
nonstatutory stock options and common stock awards to employees, directors and
consultants. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees.
The 1998 Plan is administered by a committee appointed by the board, which
determines the terms of awards granted, including the exercise price, the number
of shares subject to the award and the exercisability of awards. The exercise
price of incentive stock options granted under the 1998 Plan must be at least
equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant.
However, for any employee holding more than 10% of the voting power of all
classes of our stock, the exercise price of incentive stock options must be not
less than 110% of the fair market value. The exercise price of nonstatutory
stock options is set by the administrator of the 1998 Plan. The maximum term of
options granted under the 1998 Plan is ten years.
An optionee whose relationship as an employee, director or consultant with
us or any related corporation ceases for any reason, other than for death, total
and permanent disability or "for cause," may exercise options in the three-month
period following such cessation, or such other period of time as determined by
the administrator, unless such options terminate or expire sooner, or later, by
their terms. The three-month period is extended to twelve months for
terminations due to total and permanent disability or death. Options terminate
immediately upon an optionee's termination "for cause." Generally, the
optionholder may not transfer a stock option other than by will or the laws of
descent or distribution.
In the event of certain corporate transactions, the board of directors may,
in its sole discretion, either (i) accelerate the vesting of outstanding options
under the 1998 Plan, (ii) arrange for outstanding options to be assumed or
substituted for similar options by a successor corporation, (iii) arrange for
outstanding options to be replaced by a comparable cash incentive program of the
successor corporation or (iv) take no action with respect to outstanding
options, whereby such options will terminate upon the consummation of the
corporation transaction.
The 1998 plan will terminate on the earlier of 10 years from its adoption
by the board or the date all shares have been issued. As of June 19, 1999, no
further options will be granted under the 1998 plan.
1999 Equity Incentive Plan. Our Board adopted the 1999 Equity Incentive
Plan on June 19, 1999. As of June 30, 1999, an aggregate of 6,500,000 shares of
common stock, subject to shareholder approval, have been authorized for issuance
under the 1999 Plan. As of June 30, 1999, options to purchase an aggregate of
2,004,000 shares were outstanding under the 1999 Plan and 4,496,000 shares were
currently available for future grant of stock awards under the 1999 Plan.
53
<PAGE> 63
The Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options within
the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, nonstatutory
stock options, restricted stock purchase rights and stock bonuses to our
employees, consultants and directors. Incentive stock options may be granted
only to employees. The Incentive Plan is administered by the board of directors
or a committee appointed by the board, which determines the terms of awards
granted, including the exercise price, the number of shares subject to the award
and the exercisability of awards. The exercise price of incentive stock options
granted under the 1999 Plan must be at least equal to the fair market value of
our common stock on the date of grant. However, for any employee holding more
than 10% of the voting power of all classes of our stock, the exercise price
will be no less than 110% of the fair market value. The exercise price of
nonstatutory stock options is set by the administrator of the 1999 Plan, but can
be no less than 85% of the fair market value. The maximum term of options
granted under the 1999 Plan is ten years.
Unless otherwise provided in an option agreement, an optionee whose
relationship as an employee, director or consultant with us or any related
corporation ceases for any reason, other than for death, total and permanent
disability or "for cause," may exercise options in the three-month period
following such cessation, or such other period of time as determined by the
administrator, unless such options terminate or expire sooner, or later, by
their terms. The three-month period is extended to twelve months for
terminations due to total and permanent disability and eighteen months for
terminations due to death. Options terminate immediately upon an optionee's
termination "for cause." Generally, the optionholder may not transfer a stock
option other than by will or the laws of descent or distribution unless the
optionholder holds a nonstatutory stock option that provides for transfer in the
stock option agreement. However, an optionholder may designate a beneficiary who
may exercise the option following the optionholder's death.
In the event of the sale of substantially all of our assets or merger with
or into another corporation (a "change in control"), any outstanding options
held by persons then performing services for us as an employee, director or
consultant may either be assumed or continued or an equivalent award may be
substituted by the surviving entity or, if such options are not assumed,
continued or substituted, such options shall become fully exercisable, including
shares as to which they would not otherwise be exercisable, and restricted stock
shall become fully vested. Options also become fully exercisable in the event of
a securities acquisition representing 50% or more of the combined voting power
of our securities and in the event that a participant's service is terminated by
a surviving corporation for any reason other than "for cause" within 13 months
following a change in control.
As of the first nine anniversaries of the effective date of the 1999 Plan,
an additional number of shares will automatically be added to the number of
shares already reserved for issuance under the 1999 Plan. The additional number
of shares will not be more than the lesser of (i) 3 1/2% of the number of shares
of our common stock issued and outstanding on an anniversary date or (ii)
6,500,000 shares.
When we become subject to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code,
which, among other things, denies a deduction to publicly held corporations for
certain compensation paid to specified employees in a taxable year to the extent
that the compensation exceeds $1,000,000, no person may be granted options under
the 1999 Plan covering more than 3,000,000 shares of common stock in any
calendar year.
Restricted stock purchase awards granted under the 1999 Plan may be granted
pursuant to a repurchase option in favor of InterNAP in accordance with a
vesting schedule determined by the board or a committee appointed by the board.
The price of a restricted stock purchase award under the 1999 Plan cannot be
less than 85% of the fair market value of the stock subject to the award on the
date of grant. Stock bonuses may be awarded in consideration of past services
without a purchase
54
<PAGE> 64
payment. Unless otherwise specified, rights under a stock bonus or restricted
stock bonus agreement generally may not be transferred other than by will or the
laws of descent and distribution during such period as the stock awarded
pursuant to such an agreement remains subject to the agreement.
Our board of directors may amend (subject to shareholder approval as
necessary) the 1999 Plan at any time. The Incentive Plan will terminate on the
day before the 10th anniversary of its adoption by the board.
1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In July 1999, our board of directors
adopted, subject to shareholder approval, the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
A total of 1,500,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance
under the purchase plan. As of the first nine anniversaries of the adoption of
the purchase plan, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the purchase
plan will automatically be increased by 2% of the total number of shares of
common stock then outstanding or, if less, by 1,500,000 shares. The purchase
plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan within the
meaning of Section 423 of the Code.
The purchase plan provides a means by which employees may purchase common
stock of InterNAP through payroll deductions. The purchase plan is implemented
by offerings of rights to eligible employees. Under the purchase plan, InterNAP
may specify offerings with a duration of not more than 27 months, and may
specify shorter purchase periods within each offering. The first offering will
begin on the effective date of this offering and terminate on June 30, 2001.
Purchase dates will occur each December 31 and June 30 under the initial
offering.
Employees who participate in an offering may have up to 15% of their
earnings withheld pursuant to the purchase plan. The amount withheld is then
used to purchase shares of the common stock on specified dates determined by the
board of directors. The price of common stock purchased under the purchase plan
will be equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock
at the commencement date of each offering period or the relevant purchase date.
Employees may end their participation in an offering at any time during such
offering except during the 15 day period immediately prior to a purchase date.
Employees' participation in all offerings will end automatically on termination
of their employment with us or one of our subsidiaries.
Unless otherwise determined by our board of directors, employees are
eligible to participate in the purchase plan only if they are customarily
employed by us or one of our subsidiaries designated by the board of directors
for at least 20 hours per week and five months per calendar year. No employee
may be granted rights under the purchase plan if immediately after such rights
are granted, such employee will have voting power over 5% or more of InterNAP's
outstanding capital stock. Eligible employees may be granted rights only if the
rights together with any other rights granted under employee stock purchase
plans do not permit such employee's rights to purchase stock of InterNAP to
accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of fair market value of such stock for
each calendar year in which such rights are outstanding.
Upon a change in control of InterNAP, our board of directors has discretion
to provide that each right to purchase common stock will be assumed or an
equivalent right substituted by the successor corporation or that all sums
collected by payroll deductions to be applied to purchase stock immediately
prior to such change in control. The board of directors has the authority to
amend or terminate the purchase plan, provided, however, that no such action may
adversely affect any outstanding rights to purchase common stock.
1999 Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan. In July 1999, our board of
directors adopted, subject to shareholder approval, the 1999 Non-Employee
Directors' Stock Option Plan to provide for the automatic grant of options to
purchase shares of common stock to non-employee directors of InterNAP. The
directors' plan is administered by our compensation committee.
55
<PAGE> 65
The aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant
to options granted under the directors' plan is 500,000. Pursuant to the terms
of the directors' plan, each of our directors who is not an employee of InterNAP
will be automatically granted an option to purchase 40,000 shares of common
stock on the effective date of this offering. Each person who is elected or
appointed for the first time to be a non-employee director after the effective
date of this offering will be granted an Initial Grant upon such election or
appointment. In addition, on the day following each annual meeting of our
shareholders, each non-employee director who has served as a non-employee
director for at least six months and who continues to serve as a non-employee
director of InterNAP will be automatically granted an option to purchase 10,000
shares of common stock. Each option granted under the directors' plan will be
fully vested on the date it is granted. No option granted under the directors'
plan may be exercised after the expiration of ten years from the date on which
it was granted. The exercise price of options under the directors' plan will
equal the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. A
non-employee director whose service as a non-employee director or employee of or
consultant to InterNAP or any of our affiliates ceases for any reason other than
death or permanent and total disability may exercise vested options in the
three-month period following such cessation (unless such options terminate or
expire sooner by their terms). Vested options may be exercised during the
12-month period after a non-employee director's service ceases due to disability
and during the 18-month period after such service ceases due to death. The
directors' plan will terminate in July 2009, unless terminated earlier by our
board of directors.
Upon certain changes in control of InterNAP, all outstanding stock awards
under the directors' plan may be assumed by the surviving entity or replaced
with similar stock awards granted by the surviving entity.
401(k) Plan. We have established a tax-qualified employee savings and
retirement plan, the 401(k) Plan, for eligible employees. Eligible employees may
elect to defer a percentage of their pre-tax gross compensation in the 401(k)
Plan, subject to the statutorily prescribed annual limit. We may make matching
contributions on behalf of all participants in the 401(k) Plan in an amount
determined by our board of directors. We may also make additional discretionary
profit sharing contributions in such amounts as determined by the board of
directors, subject to statutory limitations. Matching and profit-sharing
contributions, if any, are subject to a vesting schedule; all other
contributions are at all times fully vested. We intend the 401(k) Plan, and the
accompanying trust, to qualify under Sections 401(k) and 501 of the Internal
Revenue Code so that contributions by employees or by InterNAP to the 401(k)
Plan, and income earned (if any) on plan contributions, are not taxable to
employees until withdrawn from the 401(k) Plan, and so that we will be able to
deduct our contributions, if any, when made. The trustee under the 401(k) Plan,
at the direction of each participant, invests the assets of the 401(k) Plan in
any of a number of investment options.
LIMITATIONS ON DIRECTORS' AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS' LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION
Our articles of incorporation limit the liability of directors to the
fullest extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation Act as it
currently exists or as it may be amended in the future. Consequently, subject to
the Washington Business Corporation Act, no director will be personally liable
to us or our shareholders for monetary damages resulting from his or her conduct
as a director of InterNAP, except liability for:
- acts or omissions involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations
of law;
- unlawful distributions; or
- transactions from which the director personally receives a benefit in
money, property or services to which the director is not legally
entitled.
56
<PAGE> 66
Upon the closing of this offering, our articles of incorporation will also
provide that we may indemnify any individual made a party to a proceeding
because that individual is or was a director or officer of ours, and this right
to indemnification will continue as to an individual who has ceased to be a
director or officer and will inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors
or administrators. Any repeal of or modification to our articles of
incorporation may not adversely affect any right of a director or officer of
ours who is or was a director or officer at the time of such repeal or
modification. To the extent the provisions of our articles of incorporation
provide for indemnification of directors or officers for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, those provisions are, in the
opinion or the Securities and Exchange Commission, against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and they are therefore unenforceable.
Upon the closing of this offering, our bylaws will provide that we will
indemnify our directors and officers and may indemnify our other officers and
employees and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Upon the closing of this offering, we will enter into agreements to
indemnify our directors and certain officers, in addition to indemnification
provided for in our articles of incorporation or bylaws. These agreements, among
other things, indemnify our directors and certain officers for certain expenses,
including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by
any such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by us arising
out of such person's services as our director or officer or any other company or
enterprise to which the person provides services at our request. We believe that
these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified
persons as directors and officers. We also currently maintain liability
insurance for our officers and directors.
CHANGE OF CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS
Under the 1998 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan, in the event of certain
corporate transactions, including the sale of substantially all of our assets or
merger with or into another corporation, the plan administrator may, in its sole
discretion, either (i) accelerate the vesting of outstanding options under the
1998 Plan, (ii) arrange for outstanding options to be assumed or substituted for
similar options by a successor corporation, (iii) arrange for outstanding
options to be replaced by a comparable cash incentive program of the successor
corporation or (iv) take no action with respect to outstanding options, whereby
such options will terminate upon the consummation of the corporation
transaction.
Under the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan, in the event of the sale of
substantially all of our assets or merger with or into another corporation (a
"change in control"), any outstanding options held by persons then performing
services for us as an employee, director or consultant may either be assumed or
continued or an equivalent award may be substituted by the surviving entity or,
if such options are not assumed, continued or substituted, such options shall
become fully exercisable, including shares as to which they would not otherwise
be exercisable, and restricted stock shall become fully vested. Options also
become fully exercisable in the event of a securities acquisition representing
50% or more of the combined voting power of our securities and in the event that
a participant's service is terminated by a surviving corporation for any reason
other than "for cause" within 13 months following a change in control.

Pursuant to a Limited Liability Company Agreement of InterNAP Network
Services, L.L.C., in October 1996, we sold 1,787,180 Class A Units in InterNAP
Network Services, L.L.C. to certain investors, including our officers Paul E.
McBride, Christopher D. Wheeler and Anthony C. Naughtin, for an aggregate
consideration of $1,787. InterNAP Network Services, L.L.C. was dissolved on
October 27, 1997. InterNAP was incorporated in the State of Washington in
October 1997. These Class A Units were exchanged for shares of common stock at
an exchange of 1 to 1.667.
In May 1996, we issued 2,000,000 Class B Units in InterNAP Network
Services, L.L.C. to Robert J. Lunday, Jr., in consideration for arranging a
guarantee of certain of our leasehold obligations and an unconditional promise
to contribute $500,000 to our capital on or before October 15, 1996.
Additionally, Lunday Communications loaned us $475,000 in 1996 and we repaid the
principal and interest during 1996. Robert J. Lunday, Jr., one of our directors,
is president of Lunday Communications, Inc. Further, in May 1996, Mr. Lunday
purchased an additional 2,000,000 Class B Units for $500,000. These Class B
Units were exchanged for shares of Series A preferred stock at an exchange ratio
of 1 to 1:667.
Pursuant to a shareholders agreement, dated October 1, 1997, among
InterNAP, Robert J. Lunday, Jr., and some of our founders, including Anthony C.

application for Letters Patent of the United States entitled Private Network
Access Point Router for Interconnecting Among Internet Route Providers.
On October 29, 1997, December 29, 1997 and February 4, 1998, we sold an

including H&Q InterNAP Investors, L.P., TI Ventures, LP and Vulcan Ventures
Incorporated, three of our principal shareholders, at an aggregate purchase

On January 11, 1999, Lunday Communications, Inc. loaned $500,000 to us,
represented by a promissory note that bore interest at the rate of prime plus 2%
and had a maturity date of February 15, 1999. We repaid the outstanding
principal and accrued interest on the loan in February 1999 from the proceeds of
the Series C financing.
On January 13, 1999, Robert D. Shurtleff, Jr., one our directors, loaned
$600,000 to us, represented by a promissory note that bore interest at the rate
of prime plus 2% and had a maturity date of February 15, 1999. We repaid the
outstanding principal and accrued interest on the loan in February 1999 from the

On January 28, 1999 and February 26, 1999, we sold an aggregate of
29,629,630 shares of Series C preferred stock to 44 investors, including Robert

Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Venture Partners, Oak Investment Partners VIII, L.P.,
TI Ventures, LP and Vulcan Ventures Incorporated, five of our principal

We have entered into employment letter agreements with several of our key
employees, including Anthony C. Naughtin, Paul E. McBride, Charles M. Ortega and
Christopher D. Wheeler. These agreements are described in "Management-Employment
Agreements."
We plan to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors and
executive officers for the indemnification of and advancement of expenses to
such persons to the fullest extent permitted by law. We also intend to enter
into these agreements with our future directors and executive officers.
We believe that the foregoing transactions were in our best interest and
were made on terms no less favorable to us than could have been obtained from
unaffiliated third parties. All future transactions between us and any of our
officers, directors or principal shareholders will be approved by a majority of
the independent and disinterested members of the board of directors, will be on
terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained from unaffiliated third
parties and will be in connection with our bona fide business purposes.

PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS
The following table sets forth information known to us with respect to the
beneficial ownership of our common stock as of June 30, 1999 and as adjusted to
reflect our sale of shares for:
- each person who we know to own beneficially more than five percent of the
common stock,
- each of our directors,
- certain of our executive officers, and
- all directors and executive officers as a group.
Except as indicated, and subject to community property laws where
applicable, the persons named have sole voting and investment power with respect
to all shares shown as beneficially owned by them. Percentage of beneficial
ownership is based on 53,501,228 shares of common stock outstanding on an
as-converted basis as of June 30, 1999. This assumes no exercise of the
underwriters' over-allotment option. If the underwriters' over-allotment option
is exercised in full, we will sell up to an aggregate of shares
of common stock and up to shares of common stock will be
outstanding after the completion of this offering.
The number of shares beneficially owned by each shareholder is determined
under rules promulgated by the SEC, and the information is not necessarily
indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules,
beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the individual or entity
has sole or shared voting power or investment power and any shares as to which
the individual or entity has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60
days after June 30, 1999 through the exercise of any stock option or other
right. The inclusion in this table of these shares, however, does not constitute
an admission that the named shareholder is a direct or indirect beneficial owner
of, or receives the economic benefit from these shares.
Unless otherwise indicated in the table set forth below, each person or
entity named below has an address in care of our principal executive offices.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
Effective upon the closing of this offering, the authorized capital stock
consists of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value, and 10,000,000
shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value. The following description of our
capital stock does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in
its entirety by our amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws
and by the applicable provisions of Washington law.
COMMON STOCK
As of June 30, 1999, there were 53,501,228 shares of common stock
outstanding, after giving effect to the conversion of all outstanding shares of
preferred stock into 49,469,479 shares of common stock.
The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all
matters to be voted on by the shareholders. Subject to preferences that may be
applicable to any outstanding shares of preferred stock, holders of common stock
are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by the board
of directors out of funds legally available therefor. In the event of a
liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock are entitled to
share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and the
liquidation preferences of any outstanding shares of preferred stock. Holders of
common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or other rights. There
are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock.
PREFERRED STOCK
Upon the closing of this offering, all outstanding shares of preferred
stock will be converted at a rate of one share of common stock for each share of
preferred stock into an aggregate of 49,469,479 shares of common stock.
Following the conversion, our articles of incorporation will be amended and
restated to delete all references to such shares of preferred stock. Under the
amended and restated articles of incorporation, the board has the authority,
without further action by shareholders, to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of
preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences,
privileges, qualifications and restrictions granted to or imposed upon such
preferred stock, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights,
rights and terms of redemption, liquidation preference and sinking fund terms,
any or all of which may be greater than the rights of the common stock. The
issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders
of common stock and reduce the likelihood that such holders will receive
dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. Such issuance could have the
effect of decreasing the market price of the common stock. The issuance of
preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a
change in control. We have no present plans to issue any shares of preferred
stock.
WARRANTS
As of June 30, 1999, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 600,136 shares of
Series B preferred stock were outstanding at an exercise price of $.60 per
share. Each warrant contains provisions for the adjustment of the exercise price
and the aggregate number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrant in
the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations and
reclassifications and consolidations. Upon the closing of this offering, all
warrants described herein will become exercisable for common stock at the rate
of one share of common stock for each share of preferred stock underlying the
warrants.

<PAGE> 74
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
After this offering, the holders of 52,965,681 shares of common stock,
including shares issuable upon exercise of warrants, or their permitted
transferees, are entitled to certain rights with respect to the registration of
such shares under the Securities Act. If we propose to register any of our
securities under the Securities Act for our own account or the account of any of
our shareholders other than the holders of the registrable shares, holders of
the registrable shares are entitled, subject to certain limitations and
conditions, to notice of this registration and are, subject to certain
conditions and limitations, entitled to include registrable shares in the
registration, provided, among other conditions, that the underwriters of any
such offering have the right to limit the number of shares included in the
registration. In addition, commencing 180 days after the effective date of the
registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we may be required to
prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act at our
expense if requested to do so by the holders of at least 21,186,272 of the
registrable shares, provided the reasonably expected aggregate offering price
will equal or exceed $5,000,000. We are required to use our best efforts to
effect such registration, subject to certain conditions and limitations. We are
not obligated to effect more than two of these shareholder-initiated
registrations. Further, holders of registrable securities may require us to file
additional registration statements on Form S-3, subject to certain conditions
and limitations.
We are required to bear substantially all costs incurred in connection with
any of the registrations described above, other than underwriting discounts and
commissions. The registration rights described above could result in substantial
future expenses and adversely affect any future equity or debt offerings.
ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF
INCORPORATION, BYLAWS, AS AMENDED, AND WASHINGTON LAW
Our board of directors, without shareholder approval, will have upon the
closing of this offering authority under our amended and restated articles of
incorporation to issue preferred stock with rights superior to the rights of the
holders of common stock. As a result, our board could issue preferred stock
quickly and easily, which could adversely affect the rights of holders of common
stock and which our board could issue with terms calculated to delay or prevent
a change in control or make removal of management more difficult.
Election and Removal of Directors. Effective upon the closing of this
offering, our articles of incorporation will provide for the division of our
board of directors into three classes, as nearly as equal in number as possible,
with the directors in each class serving for a three-year term, and one class
being elected each year by our shareholders. The Class I term will expire at the
annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2000; the Class II term will expire
at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2001; and the Class III term
will expire at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2002. At each
annual meeting of shareholders after the initial classification, the successors
to directors whose terms will then expire will be elected to serve from the time
of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following election.
Because this system of electing and removing directors generally makes it more
difficult for shareholders to replace a majority of the board of directors, it
may discourage a third party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting
to gain control and may maintain the incumbency of the board of directors.
Shareholder Meetings. Upon the closing of this offering our bylaws, as
amended, will provide that, except as otherwise required by law or by our
amended and restated articles of incorporation, special meetings of the
shareholders can only be called pursuant to a resolution adopted by our board of
directors, the chairman of the board or president. These provisions of our
amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws, as amended, could
discourage potential acquisition proposals and
65
<PAGE> 75
could delay or prevent a change in control. These provisions are intended to
enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of the
board of directors and in the policies formulated by the board of directors and
to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or
threatened change of control. These provisions are designed to reduce our
vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal. The provisions also are
intended to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights.
However, such provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from
making tender offers for our shares and, as a consequence, they also may inhibit
fluctuations in the market price of our shares that could result from actual or
rumored takeover attempts. Such provisions also may have the effect of
preventing changes in our management.
Washington law also imposes restrictions on certain transactions between a
corporation and certain significant shareholders. Chapter 23B.19.040 of the
Washington Business Corporation Act prohibits a "target corporation," with
certain exceptions, from engaging in certain significant business transactions
with an "acquiring person," which is defined as a person or group of persons
that beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting securities of the target
corporation, for a period of five years after such acquisition, unless the
transaction or acquisition of shares is approved by a majority of the members of
the target corporation's board of directors prior to the time of acquisition.
Such prohibited transactions include, among other things:
- a merger or consolidation with, disposition of assets to, or issuance or
redemption of stock to or from, the acquiring person;
- termination of 5% or more of the employees of the target corporation as a
result of the acquiring person's acquisition of 10% or more of the
shares; or
- allowing the acquiring person to receive any disproportionate benefits as
a shareholder.
After the five-year period, a "significant business transaction" may occur,
as long as it complies with certain "fair price" provisions of the statute. A
corporation may not "opt out" of this statute. This provision may have the
effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control.
TRANSFER AGENT
The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is American Stock
Transfer & Trust Company.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Immediately prior to this offering, there was no public market for our
common stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public
market could adversely affect the market price of the common stock.
Upon completion of this offering, we will have outstanding shares
of common stock, assuming the issuance of shares of common stock
offered in this prospectus, conversion of all shares of preferred stock and no
exercise of options or warrants after June 30, 1999. Of these shares, the blank
shares sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or
further registration under the Securities Act; provided, however, that if shares
are purchased by "affiliates," as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, their sales of shares would be subject to certain limitations
and restrictions that are described below.
We issued and sold the remaining shares of common stock, assuming
conversion of all shares of preferred stock, held by existing shareholders as of
June 30, 1999 in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of
the Securities Act. Of these shares, shares will be subject to lock-up
agreements described below on the effective date of the offering. Upon
expiration of the lock-up agreements 180 days after the effective date of the
prospectus, shares will become eligible for sale, subject in most
cases to the limitations of Rule 144. In addition, holders of stock options and
warrants could exercise their options and warrants and sell the shares issued
upon exercise as described below.

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 shares immediately after the effective

National Market during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a

Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to other requirements regarding the

about us.
RULE 701
In general, under Rule 701, any of our employees, directors, officers,
consultants or advisors who purchase shares from us in connection with a
compensatory stock or option plan or other written agreement before the
effective date of the offering is entitled to resell such shares 90 days after
the effective date of this offering in reliance on Rule 144, without having to
comply with certain restrictions, including the holding period, contained in
Rule 144.
The SEC has indicated that Rule 701 will apply to typical stock options
granted by an issuer before it becomes subject to the reporting requirements of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, along with the shares acquired upon
exercise of these options (including exercises after the date of this
prospectus). Securities issued in reliance on Rule 701 are restricted securities
and, subject to the contractual restrictions described above, beginning 90 days
after the date of this prospectus, may be sold by persons other than affiliates
subject only to the manner of sale provisions of Rule 144 and by affiliates

requirement.
In addition, following this offering, the holders of shares of
common stock and of warrants exercisable for shares of common stock
will, under certain circumstances, have rights to require us to register their
shares for future sale.
LOCK-UP AGREEMENTS

securities convertible for common stock and options and warrants to purchase
common stock have agreed pursuant to certain "lock-up" agreements that they will
not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to sell, or
otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of common stock or
securities convertible or exchangeable for common stock, or warrants or other
rights to purchase common stock for a period of 180 days after the date of this
prospectus without the prior written consent of Morgan Stanley & Co.

The underwriters are offering the shares subject to their acceptance of the
shares from us and subject to prior sale. The underwriting agreement provides
that the obligations of the several underwriters to pay for and accept delivery
of the shares of common stock offered hereby are subject to the approval of
certain legal matters by their counsel and to certain other conditions. The
underwriters are obligated to take and pay for all of the shares of common stock
offered by this prospectus if any shares are taken. However, the underwriters
are not required to take or pay for the share covered by the underwriters
over-allotment option described below.
The underwriters initially propose to offer part of the shares of common
stock directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover
page of this prospectus and part to certain dealers at a price that represents a
concession not in excess of $ a share under the public offering price.
Any underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a concession not in
excess of $ a share to other underwriters or to certain dealers. After
the initial offering of the shares of common stock, the offering price and other
selling terms may from time to time be varied by the representatives.
Pursuant to the underwriting agreement, we have granted to the underwriters
an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this prospectus, to purchase
up to an aggregate of additional shares of common stock at the public
offering price listed on the cover page of this prospectus, less underwriting
discounts and commissions. The underwriters may exercise such option solely for
the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the
offering of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus. To the extent
such option is exercised, each underwriter will become obligated, subject to
certain conditions, to purchase approximately the same percentage of the
additional shares of common stock as the number listed next to such
underwriter's name in the preceding table bears to the total number of shares of
common stock listed next to the names of all underwriters in the preceding
table. If the underwriter's over-allotment option is exercised in full, the
total price to the public would be $ , the total underwriters'
discounts and commissions would be $ and the total proceeds to us would
be $ .
The underwriters have informed us that they do not intend sales to
discretionary accounts to exceed five percent of the total number of shares of
common stock offered by them.

<PAGE> 79
Our common stock has been approved for quotation, subject to official
notice of issuance, on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "INAP."
We, the directors, officers, shareholders and certain optionholders of ours
have each agreed that, without the prior written consent of Morgan Stanley & Co.
Incorporated on behalf of the underwriters, we will not, during the period
commencing on the date of this prospectus and ending 180 days after such date,
directly or indirectly:
- offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to
purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option,
right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of,
directly or indirectly, any shares of common stock or any securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock; or
- enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in
whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of
common stock.
Any such transaction described above is to be settled by delivery of common
stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.
The restrictions described in the previous paragraph do not apply to:
- the sale to the underwriters of the shares of common stock under the
underwriting agreement;
- the issuance by us of shares of common stock upon the exercise of an
option or a warrant or the conversion of a security outstanding on the
date of this prospectus which is described in this prospectus;
- transactions by any person other than us relating to shares of common
stock or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the
completion of the offering of the shares; or
- issuances of certain shares of common stock or options to purchase
shares of common stock pursuant to our employee benefit plans as in
existence on the date of this prospectus.
In order to facilitate the offering of the common stock, the underwriters
may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the
price of the common stock. Specifically, the underwriters may over-allot in
connection with the offering, creating a short position in the common stock for
their own account. In addition, to cover over-allotments or to stabilize the
price of the common stock, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, shares of
common stock in the open market. Finally, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim
selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing the
common stock in the offering if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed
shares of common stock in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in
stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize
or maintain the market price of the common stock above independent market
levels. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may
end any of these activities at any time. Upon consummation of this offering,
affiliates of Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated will own % of the common stock
on an as-converted basis ( % if the over-allotment option granted to the
underwriters is exercised in full). Currently, affiliates of Morgan Stanley &
Co. Incorporated have designated one member to the board of directors (Dr.
Harding). Dr. Harding is a principal and employee of Morgan Stanley & Co.
Incorporated. See "Management." Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated may continue
to provide investment banking and financial advisory services to us for which it
may receive customary fees and commissions.

We and the underwriters have agreed to indemnify each other against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
PRICING OF THE OFFERING
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the common
stock. The public offering price for the shares of common stock will be
determined by negotiations between us and the representatives of the
underwriters. Among the factors to be considered in determining the public
offering price will be our record of operations, our current financial position
and future prospects and our industry in general, the experience of our
management, sales, earnings and certain of our other financial and operating
information in recent periods, the price-earnings ratios, price-sales ratios,
market prices of securities and certain financial and operating information of
companies engaged in activities similar to ours. The estimated public offering
price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus is subject to change
as a result of market conditions and other factors.
LEGAL MATTERS
The legality of the shares of common stock offered hereby will be passed
upon for us by Cooley Godward LLP, Kirkland, Washington. An investment
partnership of Cooley Godward attorneys beneficially owns an aggregate 46,296
shares of our common stock. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the
underwriters by Morrison & Foerster LLP, Palo Alto, California.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF THE COMPANY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
THE COMPANY
InterNAP Network Services Corporation (the "Company") was originally
incorporated in the State of Washington as a limited liability company ("LLC")
in May 1996. The Company was re-incorporated in the State of Washington in
October 1997 as a C corporation without changing its ownership. The Articles of
Incorporation were further amended in January 1999 to provide for the
authorization of additional common and preferred stock and, accordingly, the
disclosures in the financial statements and related notes have been adjusted to
reflect this amendment for all periods presented.
The Company is a leading provider of fast, reliable and centrally managed
Internet connectivity services targeted at businesses seeking to maximize the
performance of mission-critical Internet-based applications. Customers connected
to one of the Company's Private-Network Access Points ("P-NAPs") have their data
optimally routed to and from destinations on the Internet in a manner that
minimizes the use of congested public network access points and private peering
points.
The Company began selling Internet connectivity services from its first
P-NAP, located in Seattle, during October 1996. The Company began selling
services from its second and third P-NAPs in New York City and San Jose by
December 1998. During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company began
selling services from P-NAPs located in the Washington D.C., Los Angeles,
Chicago and Boston metropolitan areas.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since
inception and the expansion and development of its business plan will require
significant capital. The Company is currently seeking additional financing;
however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such
equity or debt financing when required, or, if available, on acceptable terms.
If the Company fails to obtain capital when required, the Company could modify,
delay or abandon some or all of the Company's business and expansion plans,
which management believes would result in the reduction of expenditures.
INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The financial information at June 30, 1999 and for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1999, and the related notes, are unaudited but include all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that the Company
considers necessary for a fair presentation, in all material respects, of its
financial position, operating results, and cash flows for the interim date and
periods presented. Results for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of results for the entire fiscal year or future periods.
ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the
financial statements and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements. Examples of estimates subject to possible
revision based upon the outcome of future events include depreciation of
property and equipment, income tax liabilities,
F-7
<PAGE> 88
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
the valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets and the allowance for
doubtful accounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT TERM INVESTMENTS
The Company generally considers any highly liquid investments purchased
with an original or remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of
purchase to be cash equivalents.
The Company classifies, at the date of acquisition, its marketable
securities into categories in accordance with the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities." Currently, the Company classifies its securities as
available-for-sale which are reported at fair market value with the related
unrealized gains and losses included in shareholders' equity (deficit).
Unrealized gains and losses were not material for all periods presented.
Realized gains and losses and declines in value of securities judged to be other
than temporary are included in other income (expense). Interest and dividends on
all securities are included in interest income. The fair value of the Company's
short-term investments are based on quoted market prices. The carrying value of
those investments approximates their fair value. At June 30, 1999, short-term
investments consisted of commercial paper and government securities with
maturities of less than one year.
The Company invests its cash and cash equivalents in deposits with two
financial institutions that may, at times, exceed federally insured limits.
Management believes that the risk of loss is minimal. To date, the Company has
not experienced any losses related to temporary cash investments.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Company extends trade credit terms to its customers based upon a credit
analysis performed by management. Further credit reviews are done on a periodic
basis as necessary. Generally, collateral is not required on accounts
receivable, however, advance deposits are collected for accounts considered
credit risks.
During 1998, the Company had two significant customers representing
approximately 13.6% and 9.6% of revenues and 9.9% and 11.0% of accounts
receivable at December 31, 1998, respectively. Additionally, the Company had a
single customer which is billed for its quarterly services in advance and, as a
result, comprised 23.4% of accounts receivable at December 31, 1998. Similarly,
during 1997, the Company had two significant customers representing 18.1% and
20.8% of revenues and 28.1% and 35.5% of accounts receivable at December 31,
1997, respectively. For 1996, the Company had two significant customers which
represented 14.9% and 56.2% of revenues.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents,
short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, capital lease
obligations, and the line of credit are carried at cost. The Company's
short-term financial instruments approximate fair value due to their relatively
short maturities. The carrying value of the Company's long-term financial
instruments approximate fair value as the interest rates approximate current
market rates of similar debt.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment consists principally of routers, telecommunications
equipment and other computer equipment. Network equipment and furniture and
equipment are carried at original acquisition cost and depreciated or amortized
on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets which
range from 3 to 7 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line
basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the term of the
related lease. Additions and improvements that increase the value or extend the
life of an asset are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as
incurred. Gains or losses from asset disposals are charged to operations in the
year of disposition.
Direct construction costs of each P-NAP, including equipment and labor
costs, are capitalized during the construction period. In addition, the Company
capitalizes interest costs as part of the cost of its P-NAPs when the P-NAPs
require an extended period of time to ready them for their intended use. During
1998, the Company capitalized approximately $78,000 and $34,000 of labor and
interest costs, respectively, related to the construction of several P-NAPs.
These costs are included as part of the cost of the network equipment.
The Company currently purchases the majority of its network equipment from
one vendor. The Company does not carry significant inventory of such equipment.
Failure to obtain the network equipment when required could negatively impact
the Company's operating results until an alternative supply source is
established. Although there are a limited number of other suppliers, there can
be no assurance that such equipment would be available and on comparable terms.
COSTS OF COMPUTER SOFTWARE DEVELOPED OR OBTAINED FOR INTERNAL USE
Costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use are
capitalized while in the application development stage and are expensed while in
the preliminary stage and the post-implementation stage. During 1998, the
Company capitalized approximately $76,000 of internal development costs incurred
during the application development stage of certain software. These costs are
included as part of the cost of network equipment.
PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS
Capitalized patent and trademark costs represent professional fees incurred
for patent and trademark filings and are capitalized at cost. Patents and
trademarks are amortized over 15 years. Accumulated amortization as of December
31, 1997 and 1998 was $284 and $3,698, respectively.
VALUATION OF LONG LIVED ASSETS
The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived
assets, including, but not limited to, property and equipment, patents and
trademarks, and other assets. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is
considered impaired when the undiscounted cash flow from such asset is
separately identifiable and is estimated to be less than its carrying value. In
that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value
exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived asset. Fair market value is
determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate
commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long lived assets to be disposed
of would be
F-9
<PAGE> 90
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values would be reduced
by the cost of disposal.
INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial
reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the
enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are
expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary,
to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value.
DEBT ISSUED WITH STOCK PURCHASE WARRANTS
Proceeds from debt issued with stock purchase warrants are allocated
between the debt and the warrants based on their relative fair values, and the
value ascribed to the warrants, based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model,
is amortized to interest expense over the term of the related debt using the
effective interest method. When the Company issues stock purchase warrants in
conjunction with obtaining a lease financing line of credit, the fair value of
the warrants, based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model, is included as a
deferred financing cost in deposits and other assets and is amortized to
interest expense over the term of the lease line using the straight-line method.
At December 31, 1998, $46,934 of deferred financing costs, net of accumulated
amortization of $7,525, are included in deposits and other assets, net.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Employee stock options are accounted for under the intrinsic value method
prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25") "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes service revenues as they are earned. Revenues from
initial installation of customer network connections are recognized when
installations are complete. Customers are billed on the last day of each month
either on a usage or a flat-rate basis. The usage based billing relates to the
month in which the billing occurs, whereas certain flat rate billings are for
the month subsequent to the billing month. Deferred revenues consist of revenues
for services to be delivered in the future and consist primarily of advance
billings for flat rate customers.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Product development costs are primarily related to network engineering
costs associated with changes to the functionality of the Company's proprietary
services and network architecture. Such costs that do not qualify for
capitalization are expensed as incurred.

ADVERTISING COSTS
The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising
expense for 1997 and 1998 was $15,670 and $63,433, respectively. There was no
advertising expense for the period from inception (May 1, 1996) to December 31,
1996.
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
The Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130") effective
January 1, 1998. SFAS No. 130 requires the disclosure of comprehensive income
and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements.
Comprehensive income is the change in equity from transactions and other events
and circumstances other than those resulting from investments by owners and
distributions to owners. SFAS No. 130 had no impact on the Company and,
accordingly, a separate statement of comprehensive income has not been
presented.
NET LOSS PER SHARE
Basic and diluted net loss per share has been computed using the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, less the
weighted average number of unvested shares of common stock issued that are
subject to repurchase. Basic and diluted pro forma net loss per share, as
presented in the statement of operations, has been computed as described above
and also gives effect to the conversion of the convertible preferred stock
(using the if-converted method) from the original date of issuance. The Company
has excluded all convertible preferred stock, warrants to purchase convertible
preferred stock, outstanding options to purchase common stock and shares subject
to repurchase from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, as such
securities are antidilutive for all periods presented.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131
("SFAS No. 131") "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31,
1997. SFAS No. 131 supersedes SFAS No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of
a Business Enterprise," replacing the "industry segment" approach with the
"management" approach. The management approach designates the internal
organization that is used by management for making operating decisions and
assessing performance as the source of the Company's reportable segments. SFAS
No. 131 also requires disclosures about products and services, geographic areas,
and major customers. The Company's operations consist of Internet connectivity
services, other ancillary services, such as co-location, web hosting and server
management, and installation services. Management uses one measurement of
profitability and does not disaggregate its business for internal reporting.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS No. 133"), "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS No.
133, which will be effective for the Company for fiscal years and quarters
beginning after June 15, 2000, requires that an entity recognize all derivatives
as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and
measure those instruments at fair value. The Company is assessing the
requirements of SFAS No. 133 and the effects, if any, on the Company's financial
position, results of operations and cash flows.
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statement of Position 98-1 ("SOP 98-1"), "Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." This statement
requires companies to capitalize qualifying computer software costs which are
incurred during the application development stage and amortize them over the
software's estimated useful life. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1998. The Company adopted the requirements of SOP
98-1 during 1998.
In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statements of Position 98-5 ("SOP 98-5"), "Reporting on the Costs of
Start-Up Activities." This statement requires companies to expense the costs of
start-up activities and organization costs as incurred. In general, SOP 98-5 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. The Company
adopted SOP 98-5 during 1999, which did not have a material impact on its
results of operations.

4. NOTES PAYABLE AND LINE OF CREDIT:
During November 1997, the Company entered into a line of credit agreement
(the "Line") with a bank allowing aggregate borrowings of up to $750,000 for the
purchase of equipment and for working capital. The Line is collateralized by the
assets of the Company and interest is payable at prime plus 1% (8.75% at
December 31, 1998). The Line requires interest only payments monthly and expires
in May 1999. Among other things, the lender has the right to require immediate
payment in the event of a material adverse change in the financial position or
prospects of the Company. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had
$650,000 and $0, respectively, outstanding on the Line.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
During 1997, the Company entered into a series of convertible notes payable
(the "Bridge Financing Agreements") to finance working capital equipment
requirements prior to the sale of Series B preferred stock. The total amount
borrowed under the Bridge Financing Agreements was $660,000. The Bridge
Financing Agreements had various due dates within 1997, with interest at 9% per
year. The Bridge Financing Agreements were either converted to Series B
preferred stock or repaid during 1997 and there were no amounts outstanding at
December 31, 1997. In connection with the Bridge Financing Agreements, the
Company issued warrants to purchase 785,759 shares of Series B preferred stock
at a price of $.60 per share, which resulted in financing expense of $124,310.
The Company also entered into an agreement during 1997 with a shareholder
to provide a $250,000 working capital line of credit. During 1997, the Company
borrowed $180,000 on the line and recorded interest expense of $5,020. All
amounts borrowed under the working capital line of credit were repaid during
1997.
At December 31, 1997, the Company had a note payable due to a lessor for
leasehold improvements in the amount of $34,444, which was repaid in full during
1998. The note included interest at 10% and was guaranteed by certain
shareholders and officers of the Company.
5. CAPITAL LEASES:
The Company has leases for a significant portion of its property and
equipment which are classified as capital leases. Interest on equipment and
furniture leases range from 4% to 20%, expire through 2003 and generally include
an option allowing the Company to purchase the equipment or furniture at the end
of the lease term for fair market value.
Future minimum capital lease payments together with the present value of

Company drew the remaining $900,000 for the purchase of certain property and
equipment.
In March 1999, the Company amended an existing lease credit facility with a
vendor which increased the available line by $4,000,000 through March 31, 1999
and an additional $2,000,000 subsequent to March 31, 1999, if certain terms and
conditions are met. The $4,000,000 and

respectively, in a restricted account for twenty four months. Alternatively, the
Company may establish an unused line of credit at a commercial bank for the same
amounts.
6. INCOME TAXES:
Prior to the re-incorporation of the Company in October 1997, the Company
operated as an LLC and was not subject to income taxes.
As of December 31, 1998, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards
of approximately $7,242,000, expiring through 2018. The Company has placed a
valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty
surrounding the realization of such assets. Management evaluates, on a quarterly
basis, the recoverability of the deferred tax asset and the level of the
valuation allowance. At such time as it is determined that it is more likely
than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, the valuation allowance
will be reduced.
The Company's ability to use its net operating losses to offset future
income is subject to restrictions in the Internal Revenue Code which could limit
the Company's future use of its net operating losses if certain stock ownership
changes occur. The Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows

SERVICE COMMITMENTS
The Company has entered into contracts with a backbone service provider and
a local exchange carrier to provide interconnection services. The contract with
the local exchange carrier provides for volume pricing based on a minimum
monthly payment. The required minimum monthly payment to the local exchange
carrier does not begin until six months after the deployment of the related
P-NAP and, as a result, will not begin until mid-1999. During that interim
period, the monthly payments are based on actual usage.

Preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, each with such
designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions
as the Board of Directors of the Company may determine at the time of issuance.
During 1997, the Board of Directors authorized 30,000,000 shares of preferred
stock. As a result of the Amendment in January 1999, the number of shares
authorized for preferred stock was increased to 50,069,615 shares.
Each share of Series A, Series B and Series C preferred stock is
convertible on a one-for-one basis to common stock at the option of the holder,
subject to adjustment in certain instances or automatically upon registration of
the Company's common stock pursuant to a public offering under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (an "Offering"). The Series A and Series B preferred
stock would be converted upon an Offering at a price of not less than $1.20 per
share with aggregate proceeds of not less than $7,000,000. The Series C
preferred stock would be converted upon an Offering at a price of not less than
$3.00 per share with aggregate proceeds of not less than $20,000,000. Automatic
conversion of Series A and Series B preferred stock would also occur on such
date as fewer than 1,333,333 and 2,185,609 shares remained outstanding,
respectively. Additionally, automatic conversion of Series A preferred stock
would occur upon written agreement of the holders

The holder of each share of preferred stock has the right to one vote for
each share of common stock into which such preferred stock can be converted.
Preferred shareholders have the same voting rights and powers as common
shareholders. Holders of the Company's preferred stock and warrants also have
certain registration rights.
Holders of preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends in preference
to any dividends paid to holders of common stock. Dividends are based on a rate
equal to 8% per share per annum of the original issue price, or $.102, $.60 and
$1.08 per share for Series A, Series B, and Series C preferred stock,
respectively. No dividends shall be paid to common or Series A preferred
shareholders unless all dividends payable to Series B and Series C preferred
shareholders have been paid or set apart on a pro rata basis. Dividends are not
cumulative and are payable when and if declared by the Board of Directors.
In the event of a liquidation of the Company, the holders of Series B and
Series C preferred stock will receive a liquidation preference of up to $.60 and
$1.08 per share, respectively, over the holders of common or Series A preferred
stock, adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, stock distributions, or
declared but unpaid dividends. Upon satisfaction of the Series B and Series C
preferred stock liquidation preference, distributions will be made to Series A
preferred shareholders in an amount equal to $.102 per share, adjusted for any
combinations, consolidations, stock distributions, or declared but unpaid
dividends. Upon completion of preference distributions to Series A, Series B and
Series C preferred shareholders, any remaining amounts will be distributed among
the holders of Series A, Series B, and Series C preferred stock and common
shareholders on a pro rata basis.
COMMON STOCK
As a result of the Amendment, the number of shares of common stock
authorized was increased to 100,000,000 from 70,000,000.
CLASS A AND B UNITS
During 1996, conducting business as an LLC, the Company issued 2,000,000
Class A units to its founding members upon incorporation and subsequently sold
4,000,000 Class B units. All units were exchanged for preferred and common stock
during 1997 as part of the re-incorporation.
WARRANTS TO PURCHASE SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK
During 1997, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 785,759 shares
of Series B preferred stock at $.60 per share in conjunction with its bridge
financing. During 1998, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 125,001
shares of Series B preferred stock at $.60 per share in connection with various
lease and bridge financings. The warrants to purchase Series B preferred stock
automatically convert to warrants to purchase common stock upon the automatic
conversion of the Series B preferred stock into common stock. During 1998, a
warrant holder exercised warrants to purchase 116,666 shares of Series B
preferred stock, resulting in proceeds to the Company of $70,000.

10. STOCK OPTION PLAN:
In March 1998, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the 1998 Stock
Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the "1998 Plan"), which provides for the issuance of
incentive stock options ("ISOs") and non-qualified options to eligible
individuals responsible for the management, growth and financial success of the
Company. The Company has applied the accounting principles discussed below to
stock option commitments made by the Company. Shares of common stock reserved
for the 1998 Plan in March 1998 totaled 4,035,000 and were increased to
5,035,000 in January 1999.
ISOs may be issued only to employees of the Company and have a maximum term
of 10 years from the date of grant. The exercise price for ISOs may not be less
than 100% of the estimated fair market value of the common stock at the time of
the grant. In the case of options granted to holders of more than 10% of the
voting power of the Company, the exercise price may not be less than 110% of the
estimated fair market value of the common stock at the time of grant, and the
term of the option may not exceed five years. Options become exercisable in
whole or in part from time to time as determined by the Board of Directors,
which will administer the Plan. Both ISOs and non-qualified options generally
vest over four years.
The Company has elected to account for stock-based compensation using the
intrinsic value method prescribed in APB 25. Accordingly, compensation cost for
stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the
Company's stock at the date of grant over the exercise price to be paid to
acquire the stock.
Option activity for 1998 is as follows (there was no activity in 1997 and
for the period from inception (May 1, 1996) to December 31, 1996) (shares in
thousands):

subject to the terms of restricted stock purchase agreements. The Directors'

Directors.

</TABLE>
The Company has adopted the disclosure only provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS No. 123"), "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." Pro forma information regarding the net loss is required by SFAS
No. 123, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its
employee stock options under the fair value method. The fair value of options
granted in 1998 was estimated at the date of grant using the minimum value
method allowed for non-public companies assuming no expected dividends and the
following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 6.00%;
volatility of 0%; and an expected life of 6 years.
For purposes of the pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting periods. If the
Company had accounted for compensation expense related to stock options under
the fair value method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the net loss and the basic and
diluted net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 1998 would have been
approximately $6,985,000 and $2.09, respectively.
During 1998, options to purchase 3,411,749 shares of the Company's common
stock, with a weighted-average exercise price of $.10 per share and a
weighted-average option fair value of $.23 per share, were granted with an
exercise price below the estimated market value at the date of grant.
DEFERRED STOCK COMPENSATION
During 1998, the Company issued stock options to certain employees under
the 1998 Plan with exercise prices below the deemed fair value of the Company's
common stock at the date of grant. In accordance with the requirements of APB
25, the Company has recorded deferred stock compensation for the difference
between the exercise price of the stock options and the deemed fair value of the
Company's common stock at the date of grant. This deferred stock compensation is
amortized to expense over the period during which the options become
exercisable, generally four years, using an accelerated method as described in
Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 28. As of December 31,
1998, the Company has recorded deferred stock compensation related to these
options in the total amount of $697,830, of which $204,599 has been amortized to
expense during 1998. The weighted average exercise price of the 3,411,749
options to purchase common stock was $.10 and the weighted average fair value
per share was $.31 during 1998.

11. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 1998:
BRIDGE NOTES PAYABLE
In January 1999, the Company borrowed $1,100,000 from two existing
shareholders as a bridge loan until the completion of the Series C financing.
Interest on these notes was at prime plus 2% and was repaid in full, plus
accrued interest, during February of 1999.
PREFERRED STOCK
In February 1999, the Company sold 29,629,630 shares of Series C preferred
stock at a price of $1.08 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of
approximately $32,000,000, prior to deducting issuance costs.
DEBT COVENANTS
The bank line of credit agreement requires that the Company provide audited
financial statements prior to March 31 of each year. The December 31, 1998
financial statements were issued subsequent to March 31, 1999 and, accordingly,
resulted in a violation of this covenant. The Company has obtained a waiver for
this violation from the bank.
12. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 1998 (UNAUDITED):
STOCK OPTIONS
During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company granted an
additional 1,468,500 options under the 1998 Plan. During June 1999, the
Company's Board of Directors adopted the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan (the "1999
Plan") which provides for the issuance of ISOs and nonqualified stock options to
eligible individuals responsible for the management, growth and financial
success of the Company. As of June 30, 1999, 6,500,000 shares of common stock
are reserved for the 1999 Plan, of which 2,004,000 options were outstanding. The
terms of the 1999 Plan are the same as the 1998 Plan with respect to ISO
treatment and vesting. During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company
granted 3,482,500 options with exercise prices below the deemed fair value of
the Company's common stock and recorded approximately $15,406,000 of deferred
stock compensation related to such options, and amortized approximately
$1,787,000 to expense. The weighted average exercise price per share of the
3,482,500 options to purchase common stock was $2.72 and the weighted average
fair value per share was $7.14 during 1999.
NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK OPTION PLAN
During July 1999, the Company adopted the 1999 Non-Employee Directors'
Stock Option Plan (the "Director Plan"). The Director Plan provides for the
grant of non-qualified stock options to non-employee directors. A total of
500,000 shares of the Company's common stock have been reserved for issuance
under the Director Plan. Initial grants, which are fully vested as of the date
of the grant, of 40,000 shares of the Company's common stock are to be made
under the Director Plan to all non-employee directors upon the closing of an
initial public offering and, thereafter, to each eligible non-employee director
on the date such person is first elected or appointed as a non-employee
director. On the day after each of the Company's annual shareholder meetings,
starting with the annual
F-22
<PAGE> 103
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
meeting in 2000, each non-employee director will automatically be granted a
fully vested and exercisable option for 10,000 shares, provided such person has
been a non-employee director of the Company for at least the prior six months.
The options are exercisable as long as the non-employee director continues to
serve as a director, employee or consultant of the Company or any of its
affiliates.
EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
During July 1999, the Company adopted the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
"ESPP"). The ESPP allows all full-time employees to participate by purchasing
the Company's common stock using a uniform percentage of compensation at a
discount allowed under guidelines issued by the Internal Revenue Service. A
total of 1,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock has been reserved for
issuance under the ESPP. Each year, the number of shares reserved for issuance
under the purchase plan will automatically be increased by 2% of the total
number of shares of common stock then outstanding or, if less, by 1,500,000
shares.
COMMON STOCK
During July 1999, the Board of Directors increased the number of authorized
shares of common stock to 300,000,000 shares.
OPERATING LEASES
As of June 30, 1999, the Company entered into various operating lease
agreements which increased the total payments that will be paid on
non-cancelable leases over the next five years by approximately $5,205,000 to
approximately $9,300,000.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Sections 23B.08.500 through 23.B.08.600 of the Washington Business
Corporation Act (the "WBCA") authorize a court to award, or a corporation's
board of directors to grant, indemnification to directors and officers on terms
sufficiently broad to permit indemnification under certain circumstances for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"). The directors and officers of InterNAP also may be
indemnified against liability they may incur for serving in that capacity
pursuant to a liability insurance policy maintained by InterNAP for such
purpose.
Section 23B.08.320 of the WBCA authorizes a corporation to limit a
director's liability to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages
for acts or omissions as a director, except in certain circumstances involving
intentional misconduct, knowing violations of law or illegal corporate loans or
distributions, or any transaction from which the director personally receives a
benefit in money, property or services to which the director is not legally
entitled. Section 5 of InterNAP's Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation, as amended by Articles of Amendment (Exhibit 3.2 hereto) contains
provisions implementing, to the fullest extent permitted by Washington law, such
limitations on a director's liability to InterNAP and its shareholders.
InterNAP has entered into certain indemnification agreements with its
directors and certain of its officers, the form of which is attached as Exhibit
10.1 to this Registration Statement and incorporated herein by reference. The
indemnification agreements provide InterNAP's directors and certain of its
officers with indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by the WBCA.
The Underwriting Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 to the
Registration Statement, provides for indemnification by the Underwriters of
InterNAP and its executive officers and directors and by InterNAP of the
Underwriters, for certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the
Securities Act, in connection with matters specifically provided in writing by
the Underwriters for inclusion in this Registration Statement.

ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
During the past three years, we have issued unregistered securities to a
limited number of persons, as described below. None of these transactions
involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public
offering, and we believe that each transaction was exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof, Regulation
D promulgated thereunder or Rule 701 pursuant to compensatory benefit plans and
contracts relating to compensation as provided under Rule 701. The recipients of
securities in each of these transactions represented their intention to acquire
the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in
connection with any distribution thereof, and appropriate legends were affixed
to the share certificates and instruments issued in such transactions. All
recipients had adequate access to information about us, through their
relationships with us.
Since May 1, 1996 we have issued and sold the following securities:
Pursuant to a Limited Liability Company Agreement of InterNAP Network
Services, L.L.C., dated October 11, 1996, we sold 1,787,180 Class A Units in
InterNAP Network Services, L.L.C. to certain investors, including our officers
Paul E. McBride, Christopher D. Wheeler and Anthony C. Naughtin, for an
aggregate consideration of $1,787.00. InterNAP Network Services, L.L.C. was
dissolved on October 27, 1997. InterNAP was incorporated in the State of
Washington in October 1997. These Class A Units were exchanged for shares of
common stock at an exchange ratio of 1 to 1.667.
In May 1996, we issued 2,000,000 Class B Units in InterNAP Network
Services, L.L.C. to Robert J. Lunday, Jr., in consideration for arranging a
guarantee of certain of our leasehold obligations and an unconditional promise
to contribute $500,000 to our capital on or before October 15, 1996.
Additionally, Lunday Communications loaned us $475,000 in 1996 and we repaid the
principal and interest during 1996. Robert J. Lunday, Jr., one of our directors,
is president of Lunday Communications, Inc. Further, in May 1996, Mr. Lunday
purchased an additional 2,000,000 Class B Units for $500,000. These Class B
Units were exchanged for shares of Series A preferred stock at an exchange ratio
of 1 to 1:667.
On October 29, 1997, December 29, 1997 and February 4, 1998, we sold an
aggregate of 12,862,558 shares of Series B preferred stock to 36 investors,
including H&Q InterNAP Investors, L.P., TI Ventures, LP and Vulcan Ventures
Incorporated, three of our principal shareholders, at an aggregate purchase
price of $7,717,534 or $.60 per share. The investor group included Robert D.
Shurtleff, Jr., one of our directors, who converted a promissory note dated
February 13, 1997 in the amount of $125,000 plus accrued interest for 221,638
shares of Series B preferred stock.
On January 28, 1999 and February 26, 1999, we sold an aggregate of
29,629,630 shares of Series C preferred stock to 44 investors, including Robert
D. Shurtleff, Jr., one of our directors, and H&Q InterNAP Investors, L.P.,
Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Venture Partners, Oak Investment Partners VIII, L.P.,
TI Ventures, LP and Vulcan Ventures Incorporated, five of our principal
shareholders, at an aggregate purchase price of $32,000,000 or $1.08 per share.
From May 1, 1996 to December 1998, we issued warrants to 12 private
investors to purchase an aggregate of 794,092 shares of Series B preferred stock
at a weighted average exercise price of $.60.
In May and September 1998, we issued warrants to First Portland Corporation
and Phoenix Leasing Incorporated, to purchase an aggregate of 116,668 shares of
Series B preferred stock at a weighted average exercise price of $.60.
From July 22, 1998, date of the first issuance of options under our 1998
Stock Option Plan, through June 30, 1999, we granted stock options to purchase
an aggregate of 4,880,249 shares of
II-2
<PAGE> 107
common stock, with exercise prices ranging from $.06 to $.80 per share, to

for an aggregate of 352,160 shares are exercisable, options for an aggregate of
52,545 shares have been cancelled and options for an aggregate of 4,132,622
shares remain outstanding. Pursuant to our 1999 Equity Incentive Plan, as of

common stock, with exercise prices ranging from $4.00 to $6.00 per share to
employees, consultants and directors.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
We hereby undertake 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 by us for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling
persons pursuant to the provisions referenced in Item 14 of this registration
statement or otherwise, we have 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 us of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer, or
controlling person 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 hereunder, we 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.
We hereby undertake 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 us pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under the Securities Act will 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.

Exhibit A
DECLARATION OF RIGHTS, PREFERENCES, PRIVILEGES AND RESTRICTIONS OF
SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK, SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK AND SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK
(c) RIGHTS, PREFERENCES, PRIVILEGES AND RESTRICTIONS OF PREFERRED
STOCK. The first series of Preferred Stock shall be designated "SERIES A
PREFERRED STOCK" and shall consist of six million six hundred sixty-six thousand
six hundred sixty-seven (6,666,667) shares. The second series of Preferred Stock
shall be designated "SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK" and shall consist of thirteen
million seven hundred seventy three thousand three hundred eighteen (13,773,318)
shares. The third series of Preferred Stock shall be designated "SERIES C
PREFERRED STOCK" and shall consist of twenty nine million six hundred
twenty-nine thousand six hundred thirty (29,629,630) shares. The rights,
preferences, privileges, and restrictions granted to and imposed on the Series A
Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock
are as set forth below in this Part C of Article II.
1. DIVIDEND PROVISION. The holders of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled
to receive dividends, out of any assets legally available therefor, prior and in
preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend (payable other than in
Common Stock) on the Common Stock of the Corporation, (i) at the rate of eight
percent (8%) per share per annum of the Original Series A Issue Price (as
defined below) on each share of Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) at the rate of
eight percent (8%) per share per annum of the Original Series B Issue Price
(defined below) on each share of Series B Preferred Stock, and at the rate of
eight percent (8%) per share per annum of the Original Series C Issue Price
(defined below) on each share of Series C Preferred Stock payable when, as and
if declared by the Board of Directors. Dividends to holders of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock shall be
payable in preference and priority to any payment of any dividend on Common
Stock of the Corporation. Payments of any dividends to the holders of the Series
B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock shall be made pro rata, on an
equal priority, pari passu basis, according to their respective dividend rates
as set forth herein. No dividends or distributions shall be made with respect to
the Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock, other than those payable solely in
Common Stock, until all dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C
Preferred Stock at the rates specified have been paid or declared and set apart.
No dividends or other distributions shall be made with respect to the Common
Stock, other than dividends payable solely in Common Stock, until all dividends
on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid or declared and set apart.
Dividends shall not be cumulative and no right to such dividends shall accrue to
holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock or Common Stock unless declared by the Board of Directors.
2. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE. In the event of any liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation (whether voluntary or
involuntary), distributions to the stockholders of the Corporation shall be made
in the following manner:
(a) The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C
Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any
distribution of any of the assets or surplus funds of the Corporation to the
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock
1.
<PAGE> 6
by reason of their ownership of such stock, an amount equal to (i) $0.60 per
share (the "Original Series B Issue Price") for each share of Series B Preferred
Stock then held by them, adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or
splits of such shares plus any declared but unpaid dividends and (ii) $1.08 per
share (the "Original Series C Issue Price") for each share of Series C Preferred
Stock then held by them, adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or
splits of such shares plus any declared but unpaid dividends. If the assets and
funds thus distributed among the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and
Series C Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such
holders of the full aforesaid preferential amount, then the entire assets and
funds of the Corporation legally available for distribution shall be distributed
among the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock in
proportion to the preferential amount each such holder is otherwise entitled to
receive. The right of holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred
Stock to receive a distribution pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall also apply
to an event described in Section 2(d) below if so elected as provided therein,
in which event the distribution to holders of Series B Preferred Stock and
Series C Preferred Stock shall be limited to the amount provided for in this
Section 2.
(b) The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the
assets or surplus funds of the Corporation to the holders of the Common Stock by
reason of their ownership of such stock, an amount equal to (i) $0.102 per share
(the "Original Series A Issue Price") for each share of Series A Preferred Stock
then held by them, adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or splits of
such shares plus any declared but unpaid dividends. If the assets and funds thus
distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be
insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full aforesaid
preferential amount, then the entire assets and funds of the Corporation legally
available for distribution shall be distributed among the holders of the Series
A Preferred Stock in proportion to the preferential amount each such holder is
otherwise entitled to receive.
(c) Upon the completion of the distribution required by
Sections 2(a) and (b) above the remaining assets of the Corporation available
for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and
the Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by
each (assuming conversion of all such Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock).
(d) For purposes of this Section 2, unless otherwise agreed
by the holders of a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock and sixty percent
(60%) of the Series C Preferred Stock (each voting as a separate series), a
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation shall be deemed to be
occasioned by, or to include, (i) the acquisition of the Corporation by another
entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions (including,
without limitation, any reorganization, merger or consolidation, but excluding
any merger effected for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Corporation)
that results in the transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding
voting power of the Corporation; or (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Corporation.
2.
<PAGE> 7
(e) In any of the events specified in Section 2(d) above, if
the consideration received by the Corporation is other than cash, its value will
be deemed its fair market value. Any securities shall be valued as follows:
(i) Securities not subject to investment letter or
other similar restrictions on free marketability:
(A) If traded on a securities exchange or
the Nasdaq National Market, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the
closing prices of the securities on such exchange over the thirty-day period
ending three (3) days prior to the closing of such acquisition or sale;
(B) If actively traded over-the-counter, the
value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid prices over the
thirty-day period ending three (3) days prior to the closing of such acquisition
or sale; and
(C) If there is no active public market, the
value shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the
Corporation's Board of Directors.
(ii) The method of valuation of securities subject to
investment letter or other restrictions on free marketability (other than
restrictions arising solely by virtue of a stockholder's status as an affiliate
or former affiliate) shall be to make an appropriate discount from the market
value determined as above in (i)(A), (B) or (C) to reflect the approximate fair
market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Corporation's Board of
Directors.
(f) The Corporation shall give each holder of record of
Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock written notice of any such
impending acquisition or sale not later than twenty (20) days prior to the
stockholders' meeting called to approve such transaction, or twenty (20) days
prior to the closing of such acquisition or sale, whichever is earlier, and
shall also notify such holders in writing of the final approval of such
acquisition or sale. The first of such notices shall describe the material terms
and conditions of the impending transaction and the provisions of this Section
2, and the Corporation shall thereafter give such holders prompt notice of any
material changes. The transaction shall in no event take place sooner than
twenty (20) days after the Corporation has given the first notice provided for
herein or sooner than ten (10) days after the Corporation has given notice of
any material changes provided for herein; provided, however, that such periods
may be shortened upon the written consent of the holders of Series B Preferred
Stock and Series C Preferred Stock that represent at least a majority of the
voting power of all then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock and
Series C Preferred Stock.
3. CONVERSION. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as
follows (the "Conversion Rights"):
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT. Subject to Section 3(c)(i), each share
of Series A 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 stock, into such number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the
Original Series A Issue Price for the Series A Preferred Stock by the Conversion
3.
<PAGE> 8
Price applicable to the Series A Preferred Stock, determined as hereafter
provided, in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for conversion.
Subject to Section 3(c)(i), each share of Series B 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 stock, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Original Series B Issue Price for
the Series B Preferred Stock by the Conversion Price applicable to the Series B
Preferred Stock, determined as hereafter provided, in effect on the date the
certificate is surrendered for conversion. Subject to Section 3(c)(i), each
share of Series C 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 stock, into such number
of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by
dividing the Original Series C Issue Price for the Series C Preferred Stock by
the Conversion Price applicable to the Series C Preferred Stock, determined as
hereafter provided, in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for
conversion. The initial Conversion Price per share of Series A Preferred Stock
shall be the Series A Original Issue Price, the initial Conversion Price per
share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be the Series B Original Issue Price,
and the initial Conversion Price per share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be
the Series C Original Issue Price; provided, however, that the Conversion Price
for each series of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series
C Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 3(d),
(e) and (g).
(b) AUTOMATIC CONVERSION.
(i) Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price
at the time in effect for such shares (A) immediately upon the closing of the
Corporation's sale of its Common Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public
offering pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, the public offering price of which is not less than $1.20 per share
(adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits or
recapitalizations) and which results in aggregate cash proceeds to the
Corporation of not less than $7,000,000 (net of underwriting discounts and
commissions), (B) on such date on which fewer than 1,333,333 Shares of Series A
Preferred Stock remain outstanding (subject to adjustment for subsequent stock
dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations) or (C) on such date as is
specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of a majority of the
then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
(ii) Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price
at the time in effect for such shares (A) immediately upon the closing of the
Corporation's sale of its Common Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public
offering pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, the public offering price of which is not less than $1.20 per share
(adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits or
recapitalizations) and which results in aggregate cash proceeds to the
Corporation of not less than $7,000,000 (before deduction of underwriting
discounts and commissions), (B) on such date on which fewer than 2,185,609
Shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding (subject to adjustment for
subsequent stock dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations) or (C) on such
date specified by
4.
<PAGE> 9
written consent or agreement of the holders of sixty-six and two thirds percent
(66 2/3%) of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock.
(iii) Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price
at the time in effect for such shares (A) immediately upon the closing of the
Corporation's sale of its Common Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public
offering pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, the public offering price of which is not less than $3.00 per share
(adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits or
recapitalizations) and which results in aggregate cash proceeds to the
Corporation of not less than $20,000,000 (before deduction of underwriting
discounts and commissions), or (B) on such date specified by written consent or
agreement of the holders of sixty percent (60%) of the then outstanding shares
of Series C Preferred Stock.
(c) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION.
(i) Before any holder of Series A, B or C Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common Stock pursuant
to Section 3(a), such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates
therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer
agent for the Series A, B or C Preferred Stock, and shall give written notice to
the Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert
the same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or
certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. The Corporation shall,
as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such
holder of Series A, B or C Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of
such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common
Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. 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 Series A, B or C 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 as of such date and any
declared and unpaid dividends on such shares being converted shall be paid
promptly.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of an event specified in
Section 3(b) above, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, 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; provided, however, that the Corporation shall
not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such conversion unless the certificates evidencing such shares of
Series A, B or C Preferred Stock are either delivered to the Corporation or its
transfer agent as provided below, 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.
Upon the occurrence of such automatic conversion of the Series A, B or C
Preferred Stock, as applicable, the holders of such Series A, B or C Preferred
Stock shall surrender the certificates representing such shares at the office of
the Corporation or any transfer agent for such Series A, B or C Preferred Stock.
Thereupon, there
5.
<PAGE> 10
shall be issued and delivered to such holder promptly at such office and in its
name as shown on such surrendered certificate or certificates, a certificate or
certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares of
Series A, B or C Preferred Stock surrendered were convertible on the date on
which such automatic conversion occurred, and any declared and unpaid dividends
on such shares being converted shall be paid promptly.
(d) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF PREFERRED STOCK FOR
CERTAIN DILUTIVE ISSUANCES.
(i) SPECIAL DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this
Section 3(d), the following definitions shall apply:
(A) "ADDITIONAL STOCK" shall mean any shares
of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to subsection
3(d)(ii)(F)) by the Corporation after the Purchase Date (as defined below) with
respect to the applicable series) other than
(1) Common Stock issued pursuant to
a transaction described in subsection 3(e)(i) hereof,
(2) shares of Common Stock (and/or
options, warrants or other Common Stock purchase rights issued pursuant to such
options, warrants or other rights) issued or to be issued to employees, officers
or directors of, or consultants or advisors to the Company or any subsidiary,
pursuant to stock purchase or stock option plans or other arrangements that are
approved by a majority of the entire Board of Directors;
(3) Capital stock, or options or
warrants to purchase capital stock, issued to financial institutions or lessors
in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings, or any
similar transactions approved by a majority of the entire Board of Directors,
(4) Shares of Common Stock or
Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants outstanding as of the date of
filing of these Articles of Incorporation,
(5) Capital stock or warrants or
options to purchase capital stock issued in connection with bona fide
acquisitions, mergers or similar transactions, the terms of which are approved
by a majority of the entire Board of Directors of the Corporation,
(6) Shares of Common Stock issued
upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and
Series C Preferred Stock, and
(7) Shares of Common Stock issued in
a public offering prior to or in connection with which all outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock
will be converted to Common Stock.
6.
<PAGE> 11
(ii) ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE. The Conversion
Price of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C
Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(A) If the Corporation shall issue, after
the date upon which any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock or Series C Preferred Stock were first issued (the "Purchase Date" with
respect to such series), any Additional Stock without consideration or for a
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series in effect
immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the Conversion Price
for such series in effect immediately prior to each such issuance shall
automatically (except as otherwise provided in this clause (ii)) be adjusted to
a price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock
that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for such issuance
would purchase at such Conversion Price; and the denominator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding plus the number of shares of
such Additional Stock; provided that for the purpose of calculating the
respective Conversion Prices for Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred
Stock pursuant to this subsection, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of outstanding options and warrants and/or upon conversion of
outstanding convertible securities (including outstanding Preferred Stock),
shall be deemed to be outstanding, and immediately after any Additional Stock is
deemed issued, such Additional Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding; and
provided further that for the purpose of calculating the Conversion Price for
Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to this subsection, all shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of outstanding Preferred Stock, shall be deemed to be
outstanding, and immediately after any Additional Stock is deemed issued, such
Additional Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding.
(B) No adjustment of the Conversion Price
for the Preferred Stock shall be made in an amount less than one cent ($0.01)
per share, provided that any adjustments which are not required to be made by
reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be either taken into
account in any subsequent adjustment made prior to three (3) years from the date
of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward, or shall be
made at the end of three (3) years from the date of the event giving rise to the
adjustment being carried forward. Except to the limited extent provided for in
subparagraphs (E)(3) and (E)(4), no adjustment of such Conversion Price pursuant
to this subsection 3(d)(ii) shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion
Price above the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
(C) In the case of the issuance of Common
Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid
therefor before deducting any reasonable discounts, commissions or other
expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or
otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof.
(D) In the case of the issuance of Common
Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration
other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined in
good faith by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.
7.
<PAGE> 12
(E) In the case of the issuance (whether
before, on or after the applicable Purchase Date) of options to purchase or
rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into
or exchangeable for Common Stock or options to purchase or rights to subscribe
for such convertible or exchangeable securities, the following provisions shall
apply for all purposes of this subsection 3(d)(ii) and Section 3(e):
(1) The aggregate maximum number of
shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise (assuming the satisfaction of
any conditions to exercisability, including without limitation, the passage of
time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) of
such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed
to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a
consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in
subsections 3(d)(ii)(C) and (d)(ii)(D)), if any, received by the Corporation
upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum exercise price
provided in such options or rights (without taking into account potential
antidilution adjustments) for the Common Stock covered thereby.
(2) The aggregate maximum number of
shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange (assuming
the satisfaction of any conditions to convertibility or exchangeability,
including, without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into
account potential antidilution adjustments) for any such convertible or
exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to
subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent
conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time
such securities were issued or such options or rights were issued and for a
consideration equal to the consideration, if any, received by the Corporation
for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash
received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum
additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation (without
taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or rights
(the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in
Sections 3(d)(ii)(C) and (d)(iii)(D)).
(3) In the event of any change in
the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable or in the consideration payable
to the Corporation upon exercise of such options or rights, or upon conversion
of or in exchange for such convertible or exchangeable securities, including,
but not limited to, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof,
the Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred
Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock, to the extent in any way affected by or
computed using such options, rights or securities, shall be recomputed to
reflect such change, but no further adjustment shall be made for the actual
issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such consideration upon the exercise
of any such options or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities.
(4) Upon the expiration of any such
options or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or
the expiration of any options or rights related to such convertible or
exchangeable securities, the Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock,
the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock, to the
8.
<PAGE> 13
extent in any way affected by or computed using such options, rights or
securities or options or rights related to such securities, shall be recomputed
to reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and
convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued
upon the exercise of such options or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of
such securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights related to such
securities.
(5) The number of shares of Common
Stock deemed issued and the consideration deemed paid therefor pursuant to
subsections 3(d)(ii)(E)(1) and (2) shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect
any change, termination or expiration of the type described in either subsection
3(d)(ii)(E)(3) or (4).
(e) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF PREFERRED STOCK FOR
CERTAIN SPLITS AND COMBINATIONS. The Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) In the event the Corporation should at any time
or from time to time after the respective Purchase Dates of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock fix a
record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled
to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of
Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the
holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common
Stock (hereinafter referred to as "Common Stock Equivalents") without payment of
any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Common Stock or
the Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then, as of such record date (or
the date of such dividend distribution, split or subdivision if no record date
is fixed), the Conversion Price of each series of Preferred Stock shall be
appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on
conversion of each share of Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to
such increase of the aggregate of shares of Common Stock outstanding and those
issuable with respect to such Common Stock Equivalents with the number of shares
issuable with respect to Common Stock Equivalents determined from time to time
in the manner provided for deemed issuances in Section 3(d)(ii)(E).
(ii) If the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding at any time after the Purchase Date is decreased by a combination of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date of such
combination, the Conversion Price for each series of Preferred Stock shall be
appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on
conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such
decrease in outstanding shares.
(f) OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event the Corporation shall
declare a distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidences of
indebtedness issued by the Corporation or other persons, assets (excluding cash
dividends) or options or rights not referred to in Section 3(e), then, in each
such case for the purpose of this Section 3(f), the holders of Preferred Stock
shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution as though
they were the holders of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation
into which their
9.
<PAGE> 14
shares of Preferred Stock are convertible as of the record date fixed for the
determination of the holders of Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to
receive such distribution.
(g) RECAPITALIZATIONS. If at any time or from time to time
there shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision,
combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for elsewhere in
this Section 3) provision shall be made so that the holders of the Preferred
Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Preferred
Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the
Corporation or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon
conversion would have been entitled on such recapitalization. In any such case,
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of
this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock
after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this Section 3
(including adjustment of the applicable Conversion Price then in effect with
respect to the Preferred Stock and the number of shares purchasable upon
conversion of the Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event and be
as nearly equivalent as practicable.
(h) NO IMPAIRMENT. The Corporation will not, by amendment of
its Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization,
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 3 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 Preferred Stock against impairment.
(i) NO FRACTIONAL SHARES AND CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS.
(i) No fractional shares shall be issued upon the
conversion of any share or shares of the 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 any fractional share, the Corporation shall, in lieu
of issuing any fractional share, pay cash equal to the product of such fraction
multiplied by the Common Stock's fair market value (as determined in good faith
by the Board of Directors) on the date of conversion.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or
readjustment of the Conversion Price of Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section
3, the Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare 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 at any
time of any holder of Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such
holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment and readjustment,
(B) the Conversion Price for the Preferred Stock at the time in effect, and (C)
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.
10.
<PAGE> 15
(j) NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. In the event of any taking by
the Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the
purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any
dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or
any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, the Corporation
shall mail to each holder of Preferred Stock, at least twenty (20) days prior to
the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such
record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right,
and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.
(k) 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 the Preferred Stock, in
addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the holder of such
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
purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the
requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to these Articles of
Incorporation.
(l) NOTICES. Any notice required by the provisions of this
Section 3 to be given to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock shall be
deemed given if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and
addressed to each holder of record at such holder's address appearing on the
books of the Corporation.
4. VOTING RIGHTS.
(a) The holder of each share of Preferred Stock shall have
the right to one vote for each share of Common Stock into which such Preferred
Stock could then be converted, and with respect to such vote, such holder shall
have full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of the
holders of Common Stock, and shall be entitled, notwithstanding any provision
hereof, to notice of any stockholders' meeting in accordance with the Bylaws of
the Corporation, and shall be entitled to vote, together with holders of Common
Stock, with respect to any question upon which holders of Common Stock have the
right to vote. Fractional votes shall not, however, be permitted and any
fractional voting rights available on an as-converted basis (after aggregating
all shares into which shares of Preferred Stock held by each holder could be
convened) shall be rounded to the nearest whole number (with one-half being
rounded upward).
(b) The holders of Preferred Stock shall have no class
voting rights except as explicitly provided in these Articles of Incorporation
or by applicable law.

EXHIBIT A
DECLARATION OF RIGHTS, PREFERENCES AND RESTRICTIONS OF
SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK AND SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK
(C) RIGHTS, PREFERENCES AND RESTRICTIONS OF PREFERRED STOCK. The first
series of Preferred Stock shall be designated "SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK" and
shall consist of six million six hundred sixty-six thousand six hundred
sixty-seven (6,666,667) shares. The second series of Preferred Stock shall be
designated "SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK" and shall consist of ten million nine
hundred twenty-eight thousand forty-seven (10,928,047) shares. The rights,
preferences, privileges, and restrictions granted to and imposed on the Series
A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock are as set forth below in
this Part C of Article II.
1. DIVIDEND PROVISION. The holders of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock and Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends, out
of any assets legally available therefor, prior and in preference to any
declaration or payment of any dividend (payable other than in Common Stock or
other securities and rights convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to
receive, directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock of the
Corporation) on the Common Stock of the Corporation, at the rate of eight
percent (8%) per share per annum of the Original Series A Issue Price (as
defined below) on each share of Series A Preferred Stock, and at the rate of
eight percent (8%) per share per annum of the Original Series B Issue Price
(defined below) on each share of Series B Preferred Stock, payable when, as and
if declared by the Board of Directors. Dividends to holders of Series A
Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock shall be payable in preference and
priority to any payment of any dividend on Common Stock of the Corporation. No
dividends or distributions shall be made with respect to the Series A Preferred
Stock or Common Stock, other than those payable solely in Common Stock, until
all declared dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock have been paid or set
apart. No dividends or other distributions shall be made with respect to the
Common Stock, other than dividends payable solely in Common Stock, until all
declared dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid or set apart.
Dividends shall not be cumulative and no right to such dividends shall accrue to
holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock or Common Stock
unless declared by the Board of Directors.
2. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE. In the event of any liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation (whether voluntary or
involuntary), distributions to the stockholders of the Corporation shall be
made in the following manner:
a. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the
assets or surplus funds of the Corporation to the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock or Common Stock by reason of their ownership of such stock, an
amount equal to (i) $0.60 per share (the "Original Series B Issue Price") for
each share of Series B Preferred Stock then held by them, adjusted for any
combinations, consolidations, or stock distributions or declared but unpaid
dividends on such shares. If the assets and funds thus distributed among the
holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the
payments to such holders of the full aforesaid preferential
A-1
<PAGE> 23
amount, then the entire assets and funds of the Corporation legally available
for distribution shall be distributed among the holders of Series B Preferred
Stock in proportion to the preferential amount each such holder is otherwise
entitled to receive. The right of holders of Series B Preferred Stock to
receive a distribution pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall also apply to an
event described in Section 2(d) below if so elected as provided therein, in
which event the distribution to holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be
limited to the amount provided for in this paragraph (a).
(b) Upon completion of the distribution required by Section
2(a) above, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets or
surplus funds of the Corporation to the holders of the Common Stock by reason
of their ownership of such stock, an amount equal to (i) $0.102 per share (the
"ORIGINAL SERIES A ISSUE PRICE") for each share of Series A Preferred Stock
then held by them, adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, or stock
distributions or declared but unpaid dividends on such shares. If the assets
and funds thus distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock
shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full
aforesaid preferential amount, then the entire remaining assets and funds of
the Corporation legally available for distribution shall be distributed among
the holders of Series A Preferred Stock in proportion to the preferential
amount each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive.
(c) Upon the completion of the distribution required by
Sections 2(a) and (b) above the remaining assets of the Corporation available
for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and the Common Stock pro
rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each (assuming
conversion of all such Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock).
(d) For purposes of this Section 2, unless otherwise agreed by
the holders of a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock (voting as a single
class), a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation shall be
deemed to be occasioned by, or to include, (i) the acquisition of the
Corporation by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related
transactions (including, without limitation, any reorganization, merger or
consolidation, but excluding any merger effected primarily for the purpose of
changing the domicile of the Corporation) that results in the transfer of fifty
percent (50%) or more of the outstanding voting power of the Corporation; or
(ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation,
unless the Corporation's stockholders of record as constituted immediately
prior to such acquisition or sale will, immediately after such acquisition or
sale (by virtue of securities issued as consideration for the Corporation's
acquisition or sale or otherwise) hold at least 50% of the voting power of the
surviving or acquiring entity.
(e) In any of the events specified in Section 2(d) above, if
the consideration received by the Corporation is other than cash, its value
will be deemed its fair market value. Any securities shall be valued as follows:
(i) Securities not subject to investment letter or other
similar restrictions on free marketability;
A-2
<PAGE> 24
(A) If traded on a securities exchange or the Nasdaq
National Market, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing
prices of the securities on such exchange over the thirty-day period ending
three (3) days prior to the closing of such acquisition or sale;
(B) If actively traded over-the-counter, the value
shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid or sale prices (whichever
is applicable) over the thirty-day period ending three (3) days prior to the
closing of such acquisition or sale; and
If there is no active public market, the value
shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined by the Corporation's Board
of Directors.
(ii) The method of valuation of securities subject to
investment letter or other restrictions on free marketability (other than
restrictions arising solely by virtue of a stockholder's status as an
affiliate or former affiliate) shall be to make an appropriate discount from
the market value determined as above in (i)(A), (B) or (C) to reflect the
approximate fair market value thereof, as determined by the Corporation's Board
of Directors.
(iii) The Corporation shall give each holder of record
of Series B Preferred Stock written notice of any such impending acquisition or
sale not later than twenty (20) days prior to the stockholders' meeting called
to approve such transaction, or twenty (20) days prior to the closing of such
acquisition or sale, whichever is earlier, and shall also notify such holders
in writing of the final approval of such acquisition or sale. The first of
such notices shall describe the material terms and conditions of the impending
transaction and the provisions of this Section 2, and the Corporation shall
thereafter give such holders prompt notice of any material changes. The
transaction shall in no event take place sooner than twenty (20) days after the
Corporation has given the first notice provided for herein or sooner than ten
(10) days after the Corporation has given notice of any material changes
provided for herein; provided, however, that such periods may be shortened upon
the written consent of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock that represent
at least a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of
Series B Preferred Stock.
3. CONVERSION. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B
Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the "Conversion
Rights"):
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT. Subject to Section 3(c)(i), each share of
Series A 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 stock, into such number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing
the Original Series A Issue Price for the Series A Preferred Stock by the
Conversion Price applicable to the Series A Preferred Stock, determined as
hereafter provided, in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for
conversion. Subject to Section 3(c)(i), each share of Series B 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 stock, into such number of fully paid and
A-3
<PAGE> 25
nonassessable shares of Common Stock as determined by dividing the Original
Series B Issue Price for the Series B Preferred Stock by the Conversion Price
applicable to the Series B Preferred Stock, determined as hereafter provided,
in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for conversion. The
initial Conversion Price per share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be the
Series A Original Issue Price and the initial Conversion Price per share of
Series B Preferred Stock shall be the Series B Original Issue Price; provided,
however, that the Conversion Price for each series of Series A Preferred Stock
and Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in
Section 3(d), (e) and (g).
(b) AUTOMATIC CONVERSION.
(i) Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price
at the time in effect for such shares (A) immediately upon the closing of the
Corporation's sale of its Common Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public
offering pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, the public offering price of which is not less than $1.20 per share
(adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits or
recapitalization) and which results in aggregate cash proceeds to the
Corporation of not less than $7,000,000 (net of underwriting discounts and
commissions), (B) on such date on which fewer than 1,333,333 Shares of Series A
Preferred Stock remain outstanding (subject to adjustment for subsequent stock
dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations) or (C) on such date as is
specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of a majority of the
then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
(ii) Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price
at the time in effect for such shares (A) immediately upon the closing of the
Corporation's sale of its Common Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public
offering pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, the public offering price of which is not less than $1.20 per share
(adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits or
recapitalization) and which results in aggregate cash proceeds to the
Corporation of not less than $7,000,000 (net of underwriting discounts and
commissions), (B) on such date on which fewer than 2,185,609 Shares of Series B
Preferred Stock remain outstanding (subject to adjustment for subsequent stock
dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations) or (C) on such date specified by
written consent or agreement of the holders of sixty-six and two thirds percent
(66 2/3%) of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock.
(c) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION.
(i) Before any holder of Preferred Stock shall
be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section
3(a), such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor,
duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the
Preferred Stock, and shall give written notice to the Corporation at its
principal corporate office, of the election to convert the same and shall state
therein the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for shares
of Common Stock are to be issued. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable
thereafter, issue and deliver at
A-4
<PAGE> 26
such office to such holder of Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of
such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common
Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. 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 as of such date and any
declared and unpaid dividends on such shares being converted shall be paid
promptly.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of an event specified in Section
3(b) above, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Series B
Preferred Stock, as applicable, 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 Company or its
transfer agent; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to
issue certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
conversion unless the certificates evidencing such shares of Preferred Stock
are either delivered to the Company or its transfer agent as provided below, or
the holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent that such certificates
have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to
the Company to indemnity the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection
with such certificates. Upon the occurrence of such automatic conversion of
the Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, as applicable, the
holders of such Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificates representing
such shares at the office of the Company or any transfer agent for such
Preferred Stock. Thereupon, there shall be issued and delivered to such holder
promptly at such office and in its name as shown on such surrendered
certificate or certificates, a certificate or certificates for the number of
shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Preferred Stock surrendered
were convertible on the date on which such automatic conversion occurred, and
any declared and unpaid dividends on such shares being converted shall be paid
promptly.
(d) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF PREFERRED STOCK FOR CERTAIN
DILUTIVE ISSUANCES.
(i) Special Definitions. For purposes of this Section
3(d), the following definitions shall apply:
(A) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of
Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to subsection
3(d)(ii)(E)) by the Corporation after the Purchase Date) other than
(1) Common Stock issued pursuant to a
transaction described in subsection 3(e)(i) hereof,
(2) Shares of Common Stock issuable or issued to
employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Corporation directly or
pursuant to a stock option plan or restricted stock plan approved by the Board
of Directors of the Corporation,
A-5
<PAGE> 27
(3) Capital stock, or options or warrants to
purchase capital stock, issued to financial institutions or lessors in
connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar
transactions approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation,
(4) Shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock
issuable upon exercise of warrants outstanding as of the date of filing of
these Articles of Amendment to Articles of Incorporation,
(5) Capital stock or warrants or options to
purchase capital stock issued in connection with bona fide acquisitions,
mergers or similar transactions, the terms of which are approved by the Board
of Directors of the Corporation,
(6) Shares of Common Stock issued upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, and
(7) Shares of Common Stock issued in a public
offering prior to or in connection with which all outstanding shares of Series
A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock will be converted to Common
Stock.
(ii) Adjustment of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price of
the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time as follows:
(A) If the Corporation shall issued, after the date
upon which any shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock
were first issued (the "Purchase Date" with respect to such series), any
Additional Stock without consideration or for a consideration per share less
than the Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to the
issuance of such Additional Stock, the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to each such issuance shall automatically (except as
otherwise provided in this clause (ii)) be adjusted to a price determined by
multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such
issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate
consideration received by the Corporation for such issuance would purchase at
such Conversion Price; and the denominator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding plus the number of shares of such Additional
Stock; provided that for the purposes of this subsection, all shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants and/or upon
conversion of outstanding convertible securities (including outstanding
Preferred Stock), shall be deemed to be outstanding, and immediately after any
Additional Stock is deemed issued, such Additional Stock shall be deemed to be
outstanding.
(B) No adjustment of the Conversion Price for the
Preferred Stock shall be made in an amount less than one cent ($0.01) per
share, provided that any adjustments which are not required to be made by
reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be either taken into
account in any subsequent adjustment made prior to three (3) years from the
date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward, or shall
A-6
<PAGE> 28
be made at the end of three (3) years from the date of the event giving rise to
the adjustment being carried forward. Except to the limited extent provided for
in subparagraphs (E)(3) and (E)(4), no adjustment of such Conversion Price
pursuant to this subsection 3(d)(ii) shall have the effect of increasing the
Conversion Price above the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment.
(C) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for
cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor
before deducting any reasonable discounts, commissions or other expenses
allowed, paid or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise
in connection with the issuance and sale thereof.
(D) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a
consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than
cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined by the Board of
Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.
(E) In the case of the issuance (whether before, on
or after the applicable Purchase Date) of options to purchase or rights to
subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for
such convertible or exchangeable securities, the following provisions shall
apply for all purposes of this subsection 3(d)(ii) and Section 3(e):
(1) The aggregate maximum number of shares of
Common Stock deliverable upon exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any
conditions to exercisability, including without limitation, the passage of
time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) of
such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be
deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and
for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner
provided in subsections 3(d)(ii)(C) and (d)(ii)(D)), if any, received by the
Corporation upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum
exercise price provided in such options or rights (without taking into account
potential antidilution adjustments) for the Common Stock covered thereby.
(2) The aggregate maximum number of shares of
Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange (assuming the
satisfaction of any conditions to convertibility or exchangeability, including,
without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account
potential antidilution adjustments) for any such convertible or exchangeable
securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe
for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or
exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such
securities were issued or such options or rights were issued and for a
consideration equal to the consideration, if any, received by the Corporation
for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash
received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum
additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation (without
taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related
A-7
<PAGE> 29
options or rights (the consideration in each cash to be determined in the
manner provided in Sections 3(d)(ii)(C) and (d)(iii)(D)).
(3) In the event of any change in the number of shares of
Common Stock deliverable or in the consideration payable to the Corporation
upon exercise of such options or rights, or upon conversion of or in exchange
for such convertible or exchangeable securities, including, but not limited to,
a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Conversion
Price of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock, to the
extent in any way affected by or computed using such options, rights or
securities, shall be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further
adjustment shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment
of such consideration upon the exercise of any such options or rights or the
conversion or exchange of such securities.
(4) Upon the expiration of any such options or rights, the
termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any
options or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the
Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred
Stock, to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such options,
rights or securities or options or rights related to such securities, shall be
recomputed to reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock
(and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually
issued upon the exercise of such options or rights, upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights
related to such securities.
(5) The number of shares of Common Stock deemed issued and the
consideration deemed paid therefor pursuant to subsections 3(d)(ii)(E)(1) and
(2) shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any change, termination or
expiration of the type described in either subsection 3(d)(ii)(E)(3) or (4).
(e) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF PREFERRED STOCK FOR CERTAIN
SPLITS AND COMBINATIONS. The Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock
and Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
as follows:
(i) In the event the Corporation should at any time or from
time to time after the respective Purchase Dates of the Series A Preferred
Stock and Series B Preferred Stock fix a record date for the effectuation of a
split or subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or the
determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or
other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock or other
securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to
receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock (hereinafter
referred to as "Common Stock Equivalents") without payment of any consideration
by such holder for the additional shares of Common Stock or the Common Stock
Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion or exercise thereof), then, as of such record date (or the date of
such dividend distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed),
the Conversion Price of each series of Preferred Stock shall be appropriately
decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion
of each share of Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such
increase of the aggregate of shares of Common Stock outstanding and those
issuable with
A-8
<PAGE> 30
respect to such Common Stock Equivalents with the number of shares issuable
with respect to Common Stock Equivalents determined from time to time in the
manner provided for deemed issuances in Section 3(d)(ii)(E).
(ii) If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any
time after the Purchase Date is decreased by a combination of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date of such combination,
the Conversion Price for each series of Preferred Stock shall be appropriately
increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion
of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease
in outstanding shares.
(f) OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event the Corporation shall declare
a distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidences of
indebtedness issued by the Corporation or other persons, assets (excluding cash
dividends) or options or rights not referred to in Section 3(e), then, in each
such case for the purpose of this Section 3(f), the holders of Preferred Stock
shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution as though
they were the holders of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation
into which their shares of Preferred Stock are convertible as of the record
date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock of the
Corporation entitled to receive such distribution.
(g) RECAPITALIZATIONS. If at any time or from time to time there
shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision,
combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for elsewhere in
this Section 3) provision shall be made so that the holders of the Preferred
Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Preferred
Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the
Corporation or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon
conversion would have been entitled on such recapitalization. In any such case,
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of
this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock
after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this Section 3
(including adjustment of the applicable Conversion Price then in effect with
respect to the Preferred Stock and the number of shares purchasable upon
conversion of the Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event and be
as nearly equivalent as practicable.
(h) NO IMPAIRMENT. The Corporation will not, by amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization,
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 3 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 Preferred Stock against impairment.
(i) NO FRACTIONAL SHARES AND CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS.
(i) No fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of
any share or shares of the Preferred Stock. All shares of Common Stock
(including fractions
A-9
<PAGE> 31
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 any
fractional share, the Corporation shall, in lieu of issuing any fractional
share, pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Common
Stock's fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) on the date
of conversion.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of
the Conversion Price of Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 3, the
Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare 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 at any
time of any holder of Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such
holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment and readjustment,
(B) the Conversion Price for the Preferred Stock at the time in effect, and (C)
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.
(j) NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. In the event of any taking by the
Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the
purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any
dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class
or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, the
Corporation shall mail to each holder of Preferred Stock, at least twenty (20)
days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which
any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution
or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.
(k) 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 the Preferred Stock,
in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the holder of such
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
purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the
requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to these Articles of
Incorporation.
(l) NOTICES. Any notice required by the provisions of this Section 3
to be given to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock shall be deemed given
if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and addressed to each
holder of record at such holder's address appearing on the books of the
Corporation.

4. VOTING RIGHTS.
(a) The holder of each share of Preferred Stock shall have the right
to one vote for each share of Common Stock into which such Preferred Stock
could then be converted, and with respect to such vote, such holder shall have
full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of the
holders of Common Stock, and shall be entitled, notwithstanding any provision
hereof, to notice of any stockholders' meeting in accordance with the Bylaws of
the Corporation, and shall be entitled to vote, together with holders of Common
Stock, with respect to any question upon which holders of Common Stock have the
right to vote. Fractional votes shall not, however, be permitted and any
fractional voting rights available on an as-converted basis (after aggregating
all shares into which shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by each holder
could be convened) shall be rounded to the nearest whole number (with one-half
being rounded upward).
(b) The holders of Preferred Stock shall have no class voting rights
except as explicitly provided in these Articles of Incorporation.
5. PROTECTIVE PROVISIONS.
(a) So long as at least 1,333,333 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
are outstanding (subject to adjustment for subsequent stock dividends, stock
splits or recapitalizations), the Corporation shall not without first obtaining
the approval of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock amend or repeal a provision of, or add any provision
to, the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws if such action would
alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock so as to affect such shares adversely.
(b) So long as at least 2,185,609 shares of Series B Preferred Stock
are outstanding (subject to adjustment for subsequent stock dividends, stock
splits or recapitalizations), the Corporation shall not without first obtaining
the approval of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of
Series B Preferred Stock:
(i) amend or repeal a provision of, or add any provision to,
the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws if such action would
alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of Series B
Preferred Stock so as to affect such shares adversely;
(ii) take any other action that would alter or change the
rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock so
as to affect such shares adversely;
(iii) authorize or issue capital stock that is, or reclassify
and series of stock to be, senior to or on parity with the Series B Preferred
Stock;
(iv) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of
Series B Preferred Stock;
A-11
<PAGE> 33
(v) take any action that results in the redemption or
repurchase of any shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock (other than
pursuant to equity incentive agreements with employees, consultants and service
providers giving the Corporation the right to repurchase shares upon
termination of services);
(vi) sell, convey, or otherwise dispose of or encumber all or
substantially all of its property or business or merge into or consolidate with
any other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation) or
effect any other transaction or series of related transactions in which more
than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Corporation is disposed of,
provided that this Section 5(b)(vi) shall not apply to a merger effected
exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Corporation; or
(vii) change the principal business of the Corporation.
6. STATUS OF CONVERTED STOCK. In the event any shares of Series A
Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock shall be converted pursuant to
Section 4 hereof, the shares so converted shall be canceled and shall not be
issuable by the Corporation.

ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
OF
INTERNAP CORPORATION
FILED
STATE OF WASHINGTON
SEP 04 1997
RALPH MUNRO
SECRETARY OF STATE
Anthony C. Naughtin hereby executes these Articles of Incorporation for
the purpose of forming a corporation under Title 23B of the Revised Code of
Washington, the Washington Business Corporation Act (the "Act").
ARTICLE I
The name of the corporation is INTERNAP Corporation (the "Corporation").
ARTICLE II
(A) AUTHORIZED CAPITAL. The Corporation is authorized to issue two
classes of stock to be designated, respectively, "Common Stock" and "Preferred
Stock." The total number of shares which the Corporation is authorized to issue
is One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares, each with a par value of $0.001
per share. Seventy Million (70,000,000) shares shall be Common Stock and Thirty
Million (30,000,000) shares shall be Preferred Stock.
(B) RIGHTS OF CLASSES GENERALLY. Except to the extent such rights are
granted to Preferred Stock or one or more series thereof, Common Stock has
unlimited voting rights and is entitled to receive the net assets of the
Corporation upon dissolution. Except as provided in Part C of Article II, the
preferences, limitations and relative rights of Preferred Stock are
undesignated. Subject to the provisions of Part C, the Board of Directors may
designate one or more additional series of Preferred Stock, and the designation
and number of shares within each such series, and shall determine the
preferences, limitations, and relative rights of any shares of Preferred Stock
or any series of Preferred Stock, before issuance of any shares of that class
or series. Shares of one class or series may be issued as a share dividend in
respect to shares of another class or series.
(C) RIGHTS, PREFERENCES AND RESTRICTIONS OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK. The
first series of Preferred Stock shall be designated "SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK"
and shall consist of six million six hundred sixty-six thousand six hundred
sixty-seven (6,666,667) shares. The rights, preferences, privileges, and
restrictions granted to and imposed on the Series A Preferred Stock are as set
forth below in this Part C of Article II.
1. DIVIDEND PROVISION. The holders of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends, out of any assets legally
available therefor, prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of
any dividend (payable other than in Common Stock or other securities and rights
convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to receive, directly
-1-
<PAGE> 35
or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock of the Corporation) on the
Common Stock of the Corporation, at the rate of eight percent (8%) per share per
annum of the Original Series A Issue Price (as defined below) on each share of
Series A Preferred Stock payable when, as and if declared by the Board of
Directors. Dividends to holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be payable in
preference and priority to any payment of any dividend on Common Stock of the
Corporation. No dividends or other distributions shall be made with respect to
the Common Stock, other than dividends payable solely in Common Stock, until all
declared dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid or set apart.
Dividends shall not be cumulative and no right to such dividends shall accrue
to holders of Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock unless declared by the
Board of Directors.
2. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE. In the event of any liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation (whether voluntary or
involuntary), distributions to the stockholders of the Corporation shall be made
in the following manner:
(a) The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled
to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets or
surplus funds of the Corporation to the holders of the Common Stock by reason of
their ownership of such stock, an amount equal to (i) $0.102 per share (the
"Original Series A Issue Price") for each share of Series A Preferred Stock then
held by them, adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, or stock
distributions or declared but unpaid dividends on such shares. If the assets and
funds thus distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall
be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full aforesaid
preferential amount, then the entire assets and funds of the Corporation legally
available for distribution shall be distributed among the holders of the Series
A Preferred Stock in proportion to the preferential amount each such holder is
otherwise entitled to receive.
(b) Upon the completion of the distribution required by Section
2(a) above the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to
stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred
Stock and the Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common
Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such Series A Preferred Stock).
3. CONVERSION. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have
conversion rights as follows (the "Conversion Rights"):
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT. Subject to Section 3(c), each share of
Series A 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 stock, into such number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the
Original Series A Issue Price for the Series A Preferred Stock by the Conversion
Price applicable to the Series A Preferred Stock, determined as hereafter
provided, in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for conversion.
The initial Conversion Price per share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be the
Series A Original Issue Price; provided, however, that the Conversion Price for
each series of Series A Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment as set
forth in Section 3(d), (e) and (g).
-2-
<PAGE> 36
(b) AUTOMATIC CONVERSION. Each share of Series A Preferred
Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the
Conversion Price at the time in effect for such shares immediately upon the
earlier of (i) except as provided below in Section 3(c), the Corporation's sale
of its Common Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant
to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the
public offering price of which is not less than $1.00 per share (adjusted to
reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits or recapitalization) and which
results in aggregate cash proceeds to the Corporation of not less than
$7,000,000 (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) or (ii) the date
specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of at least fifty
percent (50%) of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
(c) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. Before any holder of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common
Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor,
duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for
the Series A Preferred Stock, and shall give written notice to the Corporation
at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert the same and
shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or certificates
for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. The Corporation shall, as soon as
practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of
Series A Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a
certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which
such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. 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 Series A 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 as of such date; provided, however, in
the event of an automatic conversion pursuant to Section 3(b), the conversion
shall be deemed to have occurred on the date of the event giving rise to such
conversion. If the conversion is in connection with an underwritten offering of
securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, the conversion
may, at the option of any holder tendering Series A Preferred Stock for
conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriters of the sale of
securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to
receive Common Stock upon conversion of such Series A Preferred Stock shall not
be deemed to have converted such Series A Preferred Stock until immediately
prior to the closing of such sale of securities.
(d) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF PREFERRED STOCK FOR CERTAIN
DILUTIVE ISSUANCES.
(i) Special Definitions. For purposes of this Section
3(d), the following definitions shall apply:
(A) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of
Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to subsection
3(d)(ii)(E)) by the Corporation after the Purchase Date) other than
(1) Common Stock issued pursuant to a
transaction described in subsection 3(e)(i) hereof,
-3-
<PAGE> 37
(2) Shares of Common Stock issuable or issued to employees,
consultants, officers or directors of the Corporation directly or pursuant to a
stock option plan or restricted stock plan approved by the Board of Directors of
the Corporation,
(3) Capital stock, or options or warrants to purchase capital
stock, issued to financial institutions or lessors in connection with commercial
credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions,
(4) Shares of Common stock or Preferred Stock issuable upon
exercise of warrants outstanding as of the date of filing of these Articles of
Incorporation,
(5) Capital stock or warrants or options to purchase capital
stock issued in connection with bona fide acquisitions, mergers or similar
transactions, the terms of which are approved by the Board of Directors of the
Corporation,
(6) Shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series
A Preferred Stock, and
(7) Shares of Common Stock issued in a public offering prior to
or in connection with which all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock
will be converted to Common Stock.
(ii) Adjustment of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price of the Series A
Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(A) If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon which any
shares of Series A Preferred Stock were first issued (the "Purchase Date"), any
Additional Stock without consideration or for a consideration per share less
than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such
Additional Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to each such
issuance shall automatically (except as otherwise provided in this clause (ii))
be adjusted to a price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of shares of
Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for
such issuance would purchase at such Conversion Price; and the denominator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding plus the number
of shares of such Additional Stock; provided that for the purposes of this
subsection, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding
options and warrants and/or upon conversion of outstanding convertible
securities (including outstanding Preferred Stock), shall be deemed to be
outstanding, and immediately after any Additional Stock is deemed issued, such
Additional Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding.
(B) No adjustment of the Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred
Stock shall be made in an amount less than one cent ($0.01) per share, provided
that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this
sentence shall be carried forward and shall be either taken into account in any
subsequent adjustment made prior
-4-
<PAGE> 38
to three (3) years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment
being carried forward, or shall be made at the end of three (3) years from the
date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward. Except
to the limited extent provided for in subparagraphs (E)(3) and (E)(4), no
adjustment of such Conversion Price pursuant to this subsection 3(d)(ii) shall
have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price above the Conversion Price
in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
(C) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash,
the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before
deducting any reasonable discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid
or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise in connection
with the issuance and sale thereof.
(D) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a
consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than
cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined by the Board of
Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.
(E) In the case of the issuance (whether before, on or
after the applicable Purchase Date) of options to purchase or rights to
subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for
such convertible or exchangeable securities, the following provisions shall
apply for all purposes of this subsection 3(d)(ii) and Section 3(e):
(1) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common
Stock deliverable upon exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to
exercisability, including without limitation, the passage of time, but without
taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) of such options to
purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been
issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration
equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in subsections
3(d)(ii)(C) and (d)(ii)(D)), if any, received by the Corporation upon the
issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum exercise price provided in
such options or rights (without taking into account potential antidilution
adjustments) for the Common Stock covered thereby.
(2) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common
Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange (assuming the satisfaction
of any conditions to convertibility or exchangeability, including, without
limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential
antidilution adjustments) for any such convertible or exchangeable securities
or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such
convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange
thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were
issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to
the consideration, if any, received by the Corporation for any such securities
and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of
accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional
consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation (without taking into
account potential antidilution adjustments) upon the conversion or exchange of
such securities or the exercise of any related
-5-
<PAGE> 39
options or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the
manner provided in Sections 3(d)(ii)(C) and (d)(iii)(D)).
(3) In the event of any change in the number of
shares of Common Stock deliverable or in the consideration payable to the
Corporation upon exercise of such options or rights, or upon conversion of or
in exchange for such convertible or exchangeable securities, including, but not
limited to, a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the
Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock, to the extent in any way
affected by or computed using such options, rights or securities, shall be
recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment shall be made for
the actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such consideration upon
the exercise of any such options or rights or the conversion or exchange of
such securities.
(4) Upon the expiration of any such options or
rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the
expiration of any options or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable
securities, the Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock, to the extent
in any way affected by or computed using such options, rights or securities
or options or rights related to such securities, shall be recomputed to reflect
the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and convertible or
exchangeable securities which remain in effect) actually issued upon the
exercise of such options or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such
securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights related to such
securities.
(5) The number of shares of Common Stock deemed
issued and the consideration deemed paid therefor pursuant to subsections
3(d)(ii)(E)(1) and (2) shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any change,
termination or expiration of the type described in either subsection
3(d)(ii)(E)(3) or (4).
(e) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF PREFERRED STOCK FOR CERTAIN
SPLITS AND COMBINATIONS. The Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock
shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) In the event the Corporation should at any time or from
time to time after the respective Purchase Dates of the Series A Preferred
Stock fix a record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common
Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in
additional shares of Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible
into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly,
additional shares of Common Stock (hereinafter referred to as "Common Stock
Equivalents") without payment of any consideration by such holder for the
additional shares of Common Stock or the Common Stock Equivalents (including
the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise
thereof), then, as of such record date (or the date of such dividend
distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed), the Conversion
Price of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be appropriately decreased so that
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of
Series A Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase of
the aggregate of shares of Common Stock outstanding and those issuable with
respect to such Common Stock
-6-
<PAGE> 40
Equivalents with the number of shares issuable with respect to Common Stock
Equivalents determined from time to time in the manner provided for deemed
issuances in Section 3(d)(i)(E).
(ii) If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any
time after the Purchase Date is decreased by a combination of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date of such combination, the
Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred Stock shall be appropriately
increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion
of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease
in outstanding shares.
(f) OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event the Corporation shall declare
a distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidences of
indebtedness issued by the Corporation or other persons, assets (excluding cash
dividends) or options or rights not referred to in Section 3(e), then, in each
such case for the purpose of this Section 3(f), the holders of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such
distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of Common
Stock of the Corporation into which their shares of Series A Preferred Stock
are convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the
holders of Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to receive such
distribution.
(g) RECAPITALIZATIONS. If at any time or from time to time there
shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision,
combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for elsewhere in
this Section 3) provision shall be made so that the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the
Series A Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or
property of the Corporation or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock
deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such recapitalization.
In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of
the provisions of this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the holders of
the Series A Preferred Stock after the recapitalization to the end that the
provisions of this Section 3 (including adjustment of the applicable Conversion
Price then in effect with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and the
number of shares purchasable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock)
shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.
(h) NO IMPAIRMENT. The Corporation will not, by amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization,
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 3 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 Series A Preferred Stock against impairment.
-7-
<PAGE> 41
(i) NO FRACTIONAL SHARES AND CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS.
(i) No fractional shares shall be issued upon the
conversion of any share or shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, and the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest
whole share. All shares of Common Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable
upon conversion of more than one share of Series A Preferred Stock by a holder
thereof shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether 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 share, pay the holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum
of cash equal to the fair market value of such fraction on the date of
conversion (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Corporation).
(ii) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment
of the Conversion Price of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 3,
the Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to
each holder of Series A Preferred Stock a certificate setting forth such
adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustments or readjustment is based. The Corporation shall, upon the written
request at any time of any holder of Series A Preferred Stock, furnish or cause
to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such
adjustment and readjustment, (B) the Conversion Price for the Series A
Preferred Stock at the time in effect, and (C) 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 Series A Preferred Stock.
(j) NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. In the event of any taking by the
Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the
purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any
dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class
or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, the
Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, at least
twenty (20) days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the
date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend,
distribution or right.
(k) 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 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, such number of it shares
of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the
conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A 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 the
Series A Preferred Stock, in addition to such other remedies as shall be
available to the holder of such Series A 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 purposes, including, without
limitation, engaging in best
-8-
<PAGE> 42
efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment
to these Articles of Incorporation.
(l) NOTICES. Any notice required by the provisions of this
Section 3 to be given to the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall
be deemed given if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and
addressed to each holder of record at such holder's address appearing on the
books of the Corporation.
4. VOTING RIGHTS.
(a) The holder of each share of Series A Preferred Stock
shall have the right to one vote for each share of Common Stock into which such
Series A Preferred Stock could then be converted, and with respect to such vote,
such holder shall have full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights
and powers of the holders of Common Stock, and shall be entitled,
notwithstanding any provision hereof, to notice of any stockholders' meeting in
accordance with the Bylaws of the Corporation, and shall be entitled to vote,
together with holders of Common Stock, with respect to any question upon which
holders of Common Stock have the right to vote. Fractional votes shall not,
however, be permitted and any fractional voting rights available on an
as-converted basis (after aggregating all shares into which shares of Series A
Preferred Stock held by each holder could be convened) shall be rounded to the
nearest whole number (with one-half being rounded upward).
(b) Preferred Stock shall have no class voting except as
explicitly provided in these Articles of Incorporation or by applicable law.
5. PROTECTIVE PROVISIONS. So long as at least 2,000,000 shares of
Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding (subject to adjustment for subsequent
stock dividends, stock splits or recapitalization), the Corporation shall not
without first obtaining the approval of the holders of at least fifty percent
(50%) of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock amend or repeal
a provision of, or add any provision to, the Corporation's Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws if such action would alter or change the rights,
preferences or privileges of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so as to
affect such shares adversely.
6. STATUS OF CONVERTED STOCK. In the event any shares of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be converted pursuant to Section 4 hereof, the shares so
converted shall be canceled and shall not be issuable by the Corporation.
ARTICLE III
(A) NO PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS. The stockholders of the Corporation shall
have no preemptive rights to acquire additional shares of the Corporation.
(B) NO CUMULATIVE VOTING. The stockholders of the Corporation shall not
be entitled to cumulative voting at any election of directors.

<PAGE> 43

a vote of the stockholders at a meeting thereof may be taken with the written
consent of stockholders holding that number of shares as could authorize or
approve the action at a meeting of all stockholders entitled to vote on such
action. Except as provided by statute, a notice describing the action taken and
the effective date of such action shall be provided to each nonconsenting
stockholder no later than ten (10) days prior to the effective date of any
action approved pursuant to the preceding sentence.
(D) APPROVAL BY MAJORITY VOTE. Unless these Articles of Incorporation
provide for a greater voting requirement for any voting group of shareholders,
any action which would otherwise require the approval of two-thirds of all the
votes entitled to be cast, including without limitation the amendment of the
Articles of Incorporation, the approval of a plan of merger or share exchange,
the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all, or substantially all of
the Corporation's property otherwise than in the usual and regular course of
business, and the dissolution of the Corporation, shall be authorized if
approved by each voting group entitled to vote thereon by a simple majority of
all the votes entitled to be case by that voting group.

the Washington Business Corporation Act is amended in the future to authorize
corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of
directors, then the liability of a director of this Corporation shall be
eliminated or limited to the full extent permitted by the Washington Business
Corporation Act, as so amended, without any requirement of further action by
the stockholders.

OF
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
I.
NAME
The name of this Corporation (hereinafter called the "Corporation") is
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION.
II.
AUTHORIZED SHARES
2.1 This Corporation is authorized to issue [510,000,000] shares of
stock in the aggregate. Such shares shall be divided into two classes as
follows:
(a) [500,000,000] shares of common stock ("Common Stock").
(b) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock ("Preferred Stock").
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on any matter on
which holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote. On dissolution of the
Corporation, after any preferential amount with respect to the Preferred Stock
has been paid or set aside, the holders of Common Stock and the holders of any
series of Preferred Stock entitled to participate further in the distribution of
assets are entitled to receive the net assets of the Corporation.
2.2 The Board of Directors is authorized, subject to limitations
prescribed by the Washington Business Corporation Act (the "Act") and by the
provisions of this Article II, to provide for the issuance of shares of
Preferred Stock in series, to establish from time to time the number of shares
to be included in each series and to determine the designations, relative
rights, preferences and limitations of the shares of each series. The authority
of the Board of Directors with respect to each series includes determination of
the following:
2.2.1 The number of shares in and the distinguishing designation
of that series;
2.2.2 Whether shares of that series shall have full, special,
conditional, limited or no voting rights, except to the extent otherwise
provided by the Act;
2.2.3 Whether shares of that series shall be convertible and the
terms and conditions of the conversion, including provision for
adjustment of the conversion rate in circumstances determined by the
Board of Directors;
2.2.4 Whether shares of that series shall be redeemable and the
terms and conditions of redemption, including the date or dates upon or
after which they shall be redeemable and the amount per share payable in
case of redemption, which amount may vary under different conditions or
at different redemption dates;

<PAGE> 2
2.2.5 The dividend rate, if any, on shares of that series, the
manner of calculating any dividends and the preference of any dividends;
2.2.6 The rights of shares of that series in the event of
voluntary or involuntary dissolution of the Corporation and the rights
of priority of that series relative to the Common Stock and any other
series of Preferred Stock on the distribution of assets on dissolution;
and
2.2.7 Any other rights, preferences and limitations of that
series that are permitted by the Act.
Within any limits stated in these Articles or in the resolution of the
Board of Directors establishing a series, the Board of Directors, after the
issuance of shares of a series, may amend the resolution establishing the series
to decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding)
the number of shares of that series, and the number of shares constituting the
decrease shall thereafter constitute authorized but undesignated shares, and the
Board of Directors may amend the rights and preferences of the shares of any
series that has been established but is wholly unissued.
The authority herein granted to the Board of Directors to determine the
relative rights and preferences of the Preferred Stock shall be limited to
unissued shares, and no power shall exist to alter or change the rights and
preferences of any shares that have been issued.
2.3 The Board of Directors shall have the authority to issue shares of
the capital stock of this Corporation and the certificates therefor subject to
such transfer restrictions and other limitations as it may deem necessary to
promote compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, and to
regulate the transfer thereof in such manner as may be calculated to promote
such compliance or to further any other reasonable purpose.
2.4 At any time when the Corporation is subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, special meetings of the shareholders for any purpose or
purposes may be called only by the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the
Board (if one be appointed) or the Chief Executive Officer.
III.
DIRECTORS
3.1 The number of directors of the Corporation and the manner in which
such directors are to be elected shall be as set forth in the Bylaws.
3.2 Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred
Stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the directors
shall be divided 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. At the first
annual meeting of shareholders following the adoption and filing of these
Articles of Incorporation, the term of office of the Class I directors shall
expire and Class I directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At
the second annual meeting of shareholders following the
2
<PAGE> 3
adoption and filing of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, the
term of office of the Class II directors shall expire and Class II directors
shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the third annual meeting of
shareholders following the adoption and filing of these Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation, the term of office of the Class III directors shall
expire and Class III directors shall be elected for a full term of three years.
At each succeeding annual meeting of shareholders, directors shall be elected
for a full term of three years to succeed the directors of the class whose terms
expire at such annual meeting.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, each
director shall serve until his successor is duly elected and qualified or until
his death, resignation or removal. Neither the Board of Directors nor any
individual director may be removed without cause. Subject to any limitation
imposed by law, any individual director or directors may be removed with cause
by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the corporation entitled to
vote at an election of directors. No decrease in the number of directors
constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent
director.
3.3 In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by
statute, the Board of Directors shall have the power to make, adopt, amend or
repeal the Bylaws, or adopt new Bylaws for this Corporation, by a resolution
adopted by a majority of the directors.
3.4 Vacancies in the Board of Directors may be filled by a majority of
the remaining directors, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining
director. The shareholders may elect a director at any time to fill any vacancy
not filled by the directors.
IV.
SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
4.1 No shareholder of this Corporation shall have, solely by reason of
being a shareholder, any preemptive or preferential right or subscription right
to any stock of this Corporation or to any obligations convertible into stock of
this Corporation, or to any warrant or option for the purchase thereof, except
to the extent provided by resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors
establishing a series of Preferred Stock or by written agreement with this
Corporation.
4.2 In any election for directors of the Corporation, a holder of shares
of any class or series of stock then entitled to vote has the right to vote in
person or by proxy the number of shares of stock held thereby for as many
persons as there are directors to be elected. No cumulative voting for directors
shall be permitted.
4.3 The approval of any plan of merger, plan of share exchange, sale,
lease, exchange or other disposition of all, or substantially all, of the
Corporation's property otherwise than in the usual and regular course of
business, or proposal to dissolve, shall require the affirmative vote of the
holders of not less than a majority of all outstanding shares of capital stock
of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of
the Corporation. At any time when the corporation is subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, pursuant to the authority granted under RCW
3
<PAGE> 4
23B.10.030, RCW 23B.11.030, RCW 23B.12.020, and RCW 23B.14.020, the vote of
shareholders of this Corporation required in order to approve amendments to the
Articles of Incorporation, a plan of merger or share exchange, the sale, lease,
exchange, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the property of
the Corporation not in the usual and regular course of business, or dissolution
of the Corporation shall be a majority of all of the votes entitled to be cast
by each voting group, regardless of whether or not the corporation is a "public
company," as that term is defined in Section 23B.01.400 of the Act.
V.
INDEMNIFICATION AND LIABILITY OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
5.1 The Corporation may indemnify, in the manner and to the full extent
permitted by law, any person (or the estate of any person) who was or is a party
to, or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or complete
action, suit or proceeding, whether or not by or in the right of the
Corporation, and whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or
otherwise, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or
officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the
Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise. The Corporation may, to the full extent
permitted by law, purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any such person
against any liability which may be asserted against such person. To the full
extent permitted by law, the indemnification provided herein shall include
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement, and, in the manner provided by law, any such expenses may be paid by
the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or
proceeding. The indemnification provided herein shall not be deemed to limit the
right of the Corporation to indemnify any other person for any such expenses to
the full extent permitted by law, nor shall it be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which any person seeking indemnification from the Corporation may be
entitled under any agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in
another capacity while holding such office.
5.2 No director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the
Corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for his conduct as a
director, except for (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law by the director, (ii) approval of distributions or
loans in violation of RCW 23B.08.310, or (iii) any transaction from which the
director will personally receive a benefit in money, property or services to
which the director is not legally entitled. If the Act is hereafter amended to
authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal
liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation
shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, as so
amended. Any amendment to or repeal of this Article shall not adversely affect
any right or protection of a director of the Corporation for or with respect to
any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment or
repeal.

of a dividend or distribution, the day before the first notice of a meeting is
dispatched to shareholders or the date on which the resolution of the board of
directors authorizing such dividend or distribution is adopted, as the case may
be, shall be the record date for such determination of shareholders. When a
determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of
shareholders has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall
apply to any adjournment thereof unless the board of directors fixes a new
record date, which it must do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than
one hundred twenty (120) days after the date fixed for the original meeting.
SECTION 3.5 VOTING LISTS. At least ten (10) days before each meeting of
the shareholders, the officer or agent having charge of the stock transfer books

shareholders on the record date who are entitled to vote at the meeting or any
adjournment thereof, arranged by voting group, and within each voting group by
class or series of shares, with the address of and the number of shares held by
each, which record for a period of ten (10) days prior to the meeting shall be
kept on file at the principal office of the corporation or at a place identified
in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting will be held. Such record
shall be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall
be subject to the inspection of any shareholder, shareholder's agent or
shareholder's attorney at any time during the meeting or any adjournment
thereof. Failure to comply with the requirements of this bylaw shall not affect
the validity of any action taken at the meeting.

meeting of shareholders, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is
called, shall be given by or at the direction of the president, the secretary,

entitled to vote at such meeting (unless required by law to send notice to all
shareholders regardless of whether or not such shareholders are entitled to
vote), not less than ten (10) days and not more than sixty (60) days before the
meeting, except that notice of a meeting to act on an amendment to the articles
of incorporation, a plan of merger or share exchange, a proposed sale, lease,
exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the
corporation other than in the usual course of business, or the dissolution of

If an annual or special shareholders' meeting is adjourned to a
different date, time or place, notice need not be given of the new date, time or
place if the new date, time or place is announced at the meeting before
adjournment unless a new record date is or must be fixed. If a new record date
for the adjourned meeting is or must be fixed, however, notice of the adjourned
meeting must be given to persons who are shareholders as of the new record date.
SECTION 3.7 WAIVER OF NOTICE. A shareholder may waive any notice
required to be given under the provisions of these bylaws, the articles of
incorporation or by applicable law, whether before or after the date and time
stated therein. A valid waiver is created by any of the following three methods:
(a) in writing signed by the shareholder entitled to the notice and delivered to
the corporation for inclusion in its corporate records; (b) by attendance at the
meeting, unless the shareholder at the beginning of the meeting objects to
holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting; or (c) by failure to
object at the time of presentation of a matter not within the purpose or
purposes described in the meeting notice.
SECTION 3.8 MANNER OF ACTING; PROXIES. A shareholder may vote either in
person or by proxy. A shareholder may vote by proxy by means of a proxy
appointment form which is executed in writing by the shareholder, his agent, or
by his duly authorized attorney-in-fact. All proxy appointment forms shall be
filed with the secretary of the corporation before or at the commencement of
meetings. No unrevoked proxy appointment form shall be valid after eleven (11)
months from the date of its execution unless otherwise expressly provided in the
appointment form. No proxy appointment may be effectively revoked until notice
in writing of such revocation has been given to the secretary of the corporation
by the shareholder appointing the proxy.
SECTION 3.9 PARTICIPATION BY CONFERENCE TELEPHONE. At the discretion of
the board of directors, shareholders or proxies may participate in a meeting of
the shareholders by any means of communication by which all persons
participating in the meeting can hear each other during the meeting, and
participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.
SECTION 3.10 QUORUM. At any meeting of the shareholders, a majority in
interest of all the shares entitled to vote on a matter, represented by
shareholders of record, shall constitute a quorum of that voting group for
action on that matter. Once a share is represented at a meeting, other than to
object to holding the meeting or transacting business, it is deemed to be
present for purposes of a quorum for the remainder of the meeting and for any
adjournment of that meeting unless a new record date is or must be fixed for the
adjourned meeting. At such reconvened meeting, any business may be transacted
which might have been transacted at the adjourned meeting. If a quorum exists,
action on a matter is approved by a voting group if the votes cast within the
voting group favoring the action exceed the votes cast within the voting group
opposing the action, unless the question is one upon which a different vote is
required by express provision of law or of the articles of incorporation or of
these bylaws.
SECTION 3.11 VOTING OF SHARES. Each outstanding share, regardless of
class, shall be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a
meeting of shareholders, except as may be otherwise provided in the articles of
incorporation.

SECTION 3.12 VOTING FOR DIRECTORS. Unless otherwise provided in the
articles of incorporation, shareholders entitled to vote at any election of
directors are entitled to cumulate votes by multiplying the number of votes they
are entitled to cast by the number of directors for whom they are entitled to
vote and to cast the product for a single candidate or distribute the product
among two or more candidates. Unless otherwise provided in the articles of
incorporation, in any election of directors the candidates elected are those
receiving the largest numbers of votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in
the election, up to the number of directors to be elected by such shares.
SECTION 3.13 VOTING OF SHARES BY CERTAIN HOLDERS.
3.13.1 Shares standing in the name of another corporation,
domestic or foreign, may be voted by such officer, agent or proxy as the board
of directors of such corporation may determine. A certified copy of a resolution
adopted by such directors shall be conclusive as to their determination.
3.13.2 Shares held by a personal representative, administrator,
executor, guardian or conservator may be voted by such administrator, executor,
guardian or conservator, without a transfer of such shares into the name of such
personal representative, administrator, executor, guardian or conservator.
Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by such trustee, but no
trustee shall be entitled to vote shares held in trust without a transfer of
such shares into the name of the trustee.
3.13.3 Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by
such receiver, and shares held by or under the control of a receiver may be
voted by the receiver without the transfer thereof into his name if authority so
to do is contained in an appropriate order of the court by which such receiver
was appointed.
3.13.4 If shares are held jointly by three or more fiduciaries,
the will of the majority of the fiduciaries shall control the manner of voting
or appointment of a proxy, unless the instrument or order appointing such
fiduciaries otherwise directs.
3.13.5 Unless the pledge agreement expressly provides otherwise,
a shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such shares
until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and
thereafter the pledgee shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred.
3.13.6 Shares held by another corporation shall not be voted at
any meeting or counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares
entitled to vote at any given time if a majority of the shares entitled to vote
for the election of directors of such other corporation is held by this
corporation.
3.13.7 On and after the date on which written notice of
redemption of redeemable shares has been dispatched to the holders thereof and a
sum sufficient to redeem such shares has been deposited with a bank or trust
company with irrevocable instruction and authority to pay the redemption price
to the holders thereof upon surrender of certificates therefor, such shares
shall not be entitled to vote on any matter and shall be deemed to be not
outstanding shares.

SECTION 3.14 ACTION BY SHAREHOLDERS WITHOUT A MEETING. Any action which
may or is required to be taken at a meeting of the shareholders may be taken
without a meeting if one or more written consents setting forth the action so
taken shall be signed, either before or after the action taken, by all the
shareholders entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof. Action
taken by written consent of the shareholders is effective when all consents are
in possession of the corporation, unless the consent specifies a later effective

shall be managed by its board of directors.
SECTION 4.2 NUMBER, TENURE AND QUALIFICATION. The number of directors
set forth in Article II of these bylaws may be increased or decreased from time
to time by amendment to or in the manner provided in these bylaws. No decrease,
however, shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent director
unless such director resigns or is removed in accordance with the provisions of
these bylaws. Except as classification of directors may be specified by the
articles of incorporation and unless removed in accordance with these bylaws,
each director shall hold office until the next annual meeting of the
shareholders and until a successor shall have been elected and qualified.

the corporation.
SECTION 4.3 ANNUAL AND OTHER REGULAR MEETINGS. An annual meeting of the

persons authorized to call such meeting, or by the secretary at the direction of
the person or persons authorized to call such meeting. The notice may be oral or
written. Oral notice may be communicated in person or by telephone, wire or
wireless equipment, which does not transmit a facsimile of the notice. Oral
notice is effective when communicated. Written notice may be transmitted by
mail, private carrier, or personal delivery; telegraph or teletype; or
telephone, wire, or wireless equipment which transmits a facsimile of the
notice. Written notice is effective upon dispatch if such notice is sent to the
director's address, telephone number, or other number appearing on the records

required to be given to
5.
<PAGE> 7
any director of the corporation pursuant to applicable law, a waiver thereof in
writing signed by the director, entitled to notice, shall be deemed equivalent
to the giving of notice. The attendance of a director at a meeting shall
constitute a waiver of notice of the meeting except where a director attends a
meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business
because the meeting is not lawfully convened. Unless otherwise required by law,
neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or
special meeting of the board of directors need be specified in the notice or
waiver of notice of such meeting.
SECTION 4.5 QUORUM. A majority of the number of directors specified in
or fixed in accordance with these bylaws shall constitute a quorum for the
transaction of any business at any meeting of directors. If less than a majority
shall attend a meeting, a majority of the directors present may adjourn the
meeting from time to time without further notice, and a quorum present at such
adjourned meeting may transact business.
SECTION 4.6 MANNER OF ACTING. If a quorum is present when a vote is
taken, the affirmative vote of a majority of directors present is the act of the
board of directors.
SECTION 4.7 PARTICIPATION BY CONFERENCE TELEPHONE. Directors may
participate in a regular or special meeting of the board by, or conduct the
meeting through the use of, any means of communication by which all directors
participating can hear each other during the meeting and participation by such
means shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.
SECTION 4.8 PRESUMPTION OF ASSENT. A director who is present at a
meeting of the board of directors at which action is taken shall be presumed to
have assented to the action taken unless such director's dissent shall be
entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless such director shall file his
written dissent to such action with the person acting as secretary of the
meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by
registered mail to the secretary of the corporation immediately after
adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a director
who voted in favor of such action.
SECTION 4.9 ACTION BY BOARD WITHOUT A MEETING. Any action permitted or
required to be taken at a meeting of the board of directors may be taken without
a meeting if one or more written consents setting forth the action so taken,
shall be signed, either before or after the action taken, by all the directors.
Action taken by written consent is effective when the last director signs the
consent, unless the consent specifies a later effective date.
SECTION 4.10 BOARD COMMITTEES. The board of directors may by resolution
designate from among its members an executive committee and one or more other
committees, each of which must have two (2) or more members and shall be
governed by the same rules regarding meetings, action without meetings, notice,
waiver of notice, and quorum and voting requirements as applied to the board of
directors. To the extent provided in such resolutions, each such committee shall
have and may exercise the authority of the board of directors, except as limited
by applicable law. The designation of any such committee and the delegation
thereto of authority shall not relieve the board of directors, or any members
thereof, of any responsibility imposed by law.

SECTION 4.11 RESIGNATION. Any director may resign at any time by
delivering written notice to the chairman of the board, the president, the
secretary, or the registered office of the corporation, or by giving oral notice
at any meeting of the directors or shareholders. Any such resignation shall take
effect at any subsequent time specified therein, or if the time is not
specified, upon delivery thereof and, unless otherwise specified therein, the
acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.
SECTION 4.12 REMOVAL. At a meeting of the shareholders called expressly
for that purpose, any director or the entire board of directors may be removed
from office, with or without cause (unless the articles of incorporation provide
that directors may be removed only for cause) by a vote of the holders of a
majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of the director or
directors whose removal is sought. If shareholders have the right to cumulate
votes in the election of directors and if less than the entire board is to be
removed, no one of the directors may be removed if the votes cast against his
removal would be sufficient to elect him if then cumulatively voted at an
election of the entire board or the class of directors of which he is a part. If
the board of directors or any one or more directors is so removed, new directors
may be elected at this same meeting.
SECTION 4.13 VACANCIES. A vacancy on the board of directors may occur by
the resignation, removal or death of an existing director, or by reason of
increasing the number of directors on the board of directors as provided in
these bylaws. Except as may be limited by the articles of incorporation, any
vacancy occurring in the board of directors may be filled by the affirmative
vote of a majority of the remaining directors though less than a quorum. A
director elected to fill a vacancy shall be elected for the unexpired term of
his predecessor in office, except that a vacancy to be filled by reason of an
increase in the number of directors shall be filled by the board of directors
for a term of office continuing only until the next election of directors by
shareholders.
If the vacant office was held by a director elected by holders of one or
more authorized classes or series of shares, only the holders of those classes
or series of shares are entitled to vote to fill the vacancy.
SECTION 4.14 COMPENSATION. By resolution of the board of directors, the
directors may be paid a fixed sum plus their expenses, if any, for attendance at
meetings of the board of directors or committee thereof, or a stated salary as

corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor.

director, officer, employee or agent, to repay all amounts so advanced if it
shall ultimately be determined that such director, officer, employee or agent is
not entitled to be indemnified under this Article or otherwise, which
undertaking may be unsecured and may be accepted without reference to financial
ability to make repayment.
9.1.3 POWER TO ENTER INTO CONTRACTS. The corporation may enter
into contracts with any person who is or was a director, officer, employee and
agent of the corporation in furtherance of the provisions of this Article and
may create a trust fund, grant a
12.
<PAGE> 14
security interest in property of the corporation, or use other means (including,
without limitation, a letter of credit) to ensure the payment of such amounts as
may be necessary to effect indemnification as provided in this Article.
9.1.4 EXPANSION OF POWERS. If the Washington Business Corporation
Act is amended in the future to expand or increase the power of the corporation
to indemnify, to pay expenses in advance of final disposition, to enter into
contracts, or to expand or increase any similar or related power, then, without
any further requirement of action by the shareholders or directors of this
corporation, the powers described in this Article shall be expanded and
increased to the fullest extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation
Act, as so amended.
9.1.5 LIMITATION ON POWERS. No indemnification shall be provided
under this Article to any such person if the corporation is prohibited by the
nonexclusive provisions of the Washington Business Corporation Act or other
applicable law as then in effect from paying such indemnification. For example,
no indemnification shall be provided to any director in respect of any
proceeding, whether or not involving action in his or her official capacity, in
which he or she shall have been finally adjudged to be liable on the basis of
intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law by the director, or from
conduct of the director in violation of RCW 23B.08.310, or that the director
personally received a benefit in money, property or services to which the
director was not legally entitled.
SECTION 9.2 INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND
AGENTS.
9.2.1 DIRECTORS. The corporation shall indemnify and hold
harmless any person who is or was a director of this corporation, and pay
expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding, to the full extent to
which the corporation is empowered.
9.2.2 OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS. The corporation may, by
action of its Board of Directors from time to time, indemnify and hold harmless
any person who is or was an officer, employee or agent of the corporation, and
pay expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding, to the full extent
to which the corporation is empowered, or to any lesser extent which the Board
of Directors may determine.
9.2.3 CHARACTER OF RIGHTS. The rights to indemnification and
payment of expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding conferred by
or pursuant to this Article shall be contract rights.
9.2.4 ENFORCEMENT. A director, officer, employee or agent
("claimant") shall be presumed to be entitled to indemnification and/or payment
of expenses under this Article upon submission of a written claim (and, in an
action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any
proceeding in advance of its final disposition, where the undertaking in
subsection 9.1.2 above has been delivered to the corporation) and thereafter the
corporation shall have the burden of proof to overcome the presumption that the
claimant is so entitled.
If a claim under this Article is not paid in full by the corporation
within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received by the
corporation, except in the case of a claim for expenses incurred in defending a
proceeding in advance of its final disposition, in which case the applicable
period shall be twenty (20) days, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring
suit
13.
<PAGE> 15
against the corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, to the
extent successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid
also the expense of prosecuting such claim. Neither the failure of the
corporation (including its board of directors, its shareholders or independent
legal counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such
action that indemnification of or reimbursement or advancement of expenses to
the claimant is proper in the circumstances nor an actual determination by the
corporation (including its board of directors, its shareholders or independent
legal counsel) that the claimant is not entitled to indemnification or to the
reimbursement or advancement of expenses shall be a defense to the action or
create a presumption that the claimant is not so entitled.
9.2.5 RIGHTS NOT EXCLUSIVE. The right to indemnification and
payment of expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding conferred in
this Article shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have
or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the articles of
incorporation, bylaws, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested
directors or otherwise.
SECTION 9.3 INSURANCE. The corporation may purchase and maintain
insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer,
employee, agent or trustee of the corporation or another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense,
liability or loss, whether or not the corporation would have the power to
indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the
Washington Business Corporation Act.
SECTION 9.4 SURVIVAL OF BENEFITS. Any repeal or modification of this
Article shall not adversely affect any right of any person existing at the time
of such repeal or modification.
SECTION 9.5 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Article or any
application thereof shall be invalid, unenforceable or contrary to applicable
law, the remainder of this Article, or the application of such provision to
persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid,
unenforceable or contrary to applicable law, shall not be affected thereby and
shall continue in full force and effect.
SECTION 9.6 APPLICABLE LAW. For purposes of this Article, "applicable
law" shall at all times be construed as the applicable law in effect at the date
indemnification may be sought, or the law in effect at the date of the action,
omission or other event giving rise to the situation for which indemnification
may be sought, whichever is selected by the person seeking indemnification. As
of the date hereof, applicable law shall include RCW 23B.08.500 through .600, as
amended.
ARTICLE X
BOOKS AND RECORDS
The corporation shall keep correct and complete books and records of
account, stock transfer books, minutes of the proceedings of its shareholders
and the board of directors and such other records as may be necessary or
advisable.
14.

ARTICLE XI
FISCAL YEAR
The fiscal year of the corporation shall be determined by resolution
adopted by the board of directors. In the absence of such a resolution, the
fiscal year shall be the calendar year.
ARTICLE XII
VOTING OF SHARES OF ANOTHER CORPORATION
Shares of another corporation held by this corporation may be voted by
the president or vice-president, or by proxy appointment form executed by either
of them, unless the directors by resolution shall designate some other person to
vote the shares.
ARTICLE XIII
AMENDMENTS TO BYLAWS
These bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed, and new bylaws may be
adopted, by the board of directors or by the shareholders.

AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS OF
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
These AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS are promulgated pursuant to the
Washington Business Corporation Act, as set forth in Title 23B of the Revised
Code of Washington.
ARTICLE 1
OFFICES
1.1 PRINCIPAL OFFICE. The principal office of the Corporation shall be
located at the principal place of business or such other place as the Board of
Directors may designate.
1.2 REGISTERED OFFICE AND REGISTERED AGENT. The registered office of the
Corporation shall be located in the State of Washington at such place as may be
fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors upon filing of such notices as
may be required by law, and the registered agent shall have a business office
identical with such registered office. Any change in the registered agent or
registered office shall be effective upon filing such change with the office of
the Secretary of State of the State of Washington.
1.3 OTHER OFFICES. The Corporation shall also have and maintain an
office or principal place of business at such place as may be fixed by the Board
of Directors, and may also have offices at such other places, both within and
without the State of Washington, as the Board of Directors may from time to time
determine or the business of the Corporation may require.
ARTICLE 2
SHAREHOLDERS
2.1 ANNUAL MEETING
(a) The annual meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation for
the election of directors and for the transaction of such other business as may
properly come before the meeting shall be held each year on a date and at a time
and place to be set by the Board of Directors.
(b) At an annual meeting of the shareholders, only such business
shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be
properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be: (i) specified in
the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction
of the Board of Directors, (ii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by
or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (iii) otherwise properly
brought before the meeting by a shareholder. For business to be properly brought
before an annual meeting by a shareholder, the shareholder must have given
timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be
timely, a shareholder's notice must be
1.
<PAGE> 6
delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the
Corporation not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day nor
earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day
prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting; provided,
however, that in the event that no annual meeting was held in the previous year
or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by more than thirty (30) days
from the date contemplated at the time of the previous year's proxy statement,
notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so received 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, in the event public announcement of the date of
such annual meeting is first made by the Corporation fewer than seventy (70)
days prior to the date of such annual meeting, 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. A shareholder's notice to the
Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring
before the annual meeting: (A) a brief description of the business desired to be
brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business
at the annual meeting, (B) the name and address, as they appear on the
Corporation's books, of the shareholder proposing such business, (C) the class
and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the
shareholder, (D) any material interest of the shareholder in such business and
(E) any other information that is required to be provided by the shareholder
pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "1934 Act"), in his capacity as a proponent to a shareholder proposal.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to include information with respect to a
shareholder proposal in the proxy statement and form of proxy for a
shareholders' meeting, shareholders must provide notice as required by the
regulations promulgated under the 1934 Act. Notwithstanding anything in these
Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at any annual meeting
except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this paragraph (b). The
chairman of the annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and
declare at the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting
and in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph (b), and, if he should
so determine, he shall so declare at the meeting that any such business not
properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.
2.2 SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the shareholders for any
purpose or purposes may be called at any time by a majority of the Board of
Directors or by the Chairperson of the Board (if one be elected) or by the Chief
Executive Officer. The Board of Directors may designate any place as the place
of any special meeting called by the Chairperson, the Chief Executive Officer or
the Board.
2.3 NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Except as otherwise provided in Subsections
2.3(b) and 2.3(c) below, the Secretary, Assistant Secretary, or any transfer
agent of the Corporation shall deliver, either personally or by mail, private
carrier, telegraph or teletype, or telephone, wire or wireless equipment which
transmits a facsimile of the notice, not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty
(60) days before the date of any meeting of shareholders, written notice stating
the place, day, and time of the meeting to each shareholder of record entitled
to vote at such meeting. If mailed in the United States, such notice shall be
deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail, with
first-class postage thereon prepaid, addressed to the shareholder at his
2.
<PAGE> 7
address as it appears on the Corporation's record of shareholders. If mailed
outside the United States, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered five (5)
days after being deposited in the mail, with first-class airmail postage
thereon, return receipt requested, addressed to the shareholder at the
shareholder's address as it appears on the Corporation's record of shareholders.
(a) NOTICE OF SPECIAL MEETING. In the case of a special meeting,
the written notice shall also state with reasonable clarity the purpose or
purposes for which the meeting is called and the actions sought to be approved
at the meeting. No business other than that specified in the notice may be
transacted at a special meeting.
(b) PROPOSED ARTICLES OF AMENDMENT OR DISSOLUTION. If the
business to be conducted at any meeting includes any proposed amendment to the
Articles of Incorporation or the proposed voluntary dissolution of the
Corporation, then the written notice shall be given not less than twenty (20)
nor more than sixty (60) days before the meeting date and shall state that the
purpose or one of the purposes is to consider the advisability thereof, and, in
the case of a proposed amendment, shall be accompanied by a copy of the
amendment.
(c) PROPOSED MERGER, CONSOLIDATION, EXCHANGE, SALE, LEASE OR
DISPOSITION. If the business to be conducted at any meeting includes any
proposed plan of merger or share exchange, or any sale, lease, exchange, or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the Corporation's property
otherwise than in the usual or regular course of its business, then the written
notice shall state that the purpose or one of the purposes is to consider the
proposed plan of merger or share exchange, sale, lease, or disposition, as the
case may be, shall describe the proposed action with reasonable clarity, and, if
required by law, shall be accompanied by a copy or a detailed summary thereof;
and written notice shall be given to each shareholder of record, whether or not
entitled to vote at such meeting, not less than twenty (20) nor more than sixty
(60) days before such meeting, in the manner provided in Section 2.3 above.
(d) DECLARATION OF MAILING. A declaration of the mailing or other
means of giving any notice of any shareholders' meeting, executed by the
Secretary, Assistant Secretary, or any transfer agent of the Corporation giving
the notice, shall be prima facie evidence of the giving of such notice.
(e) WAIVER OF NOTICE. Notice of any shareholders' meeting may be
waived in writing by any shareholder at any time, either before or after the
meeting. Except as provided below, the waiver must be signed by the shareholder
entitled to the notice, and be delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the
minutes or filing with the corporate records. A shareholder's attendance at a
meeting waives objection to lack of notice, or defective notice, unless the
shareholder at the beginning of the meeting objects to holding the meeting or
transacting business at the meeting.
2.4 QUORUM. A quorum shall exist at any meeting of shareholders if a
majority of the shares entitled to vote is represented in person or by proxy.
Shares entitled to vote as a separate voting group may take action on a matter
at a meeting only if a quorum of those shares exists with respect to that
matter. The shareholders present at a duly organized meeting may continue to
transact business at such meeting and at any adjournment of such meeting (unless
a
3.
<PAGE> 8
new record date is or must be set for the adjourned meeting), notwithstanding
the withdrawal of enough shareholders from either meeting to leave less than a
quorum. Once a share is represented for any purpose at a meeting other than
solely to object to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting,
it is deemed present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the meeting and
for any adjournment of that meeting unless a new record date is or must be set
for the adjourned meeting.
2.5 VOTING OF SHARES. Except as otherwise provided in the Articles of
Incorporation or these Bylaws, every shareholder of record shall have the right
at every shareholders' meeting to one vote for every share standing in his name
on the books of the Corporation. If a quorum exists, action on a matter, other
than the election of directors, is approved by a voting group if the votes cast
within the voting group favoring the action exceed the votes cast within the
voting group opposing the action, unless a greater number is required by the
Articles of Incorporation or the Washington Business Corporation Act.
2.6 ADJOURNED MEETINGS. A majority of the shares represented at a
meeting, even if less than a quorum, may adjourn the meeting from time to time
without further notice. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place,
notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof
are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. However, if a
new record date for the adjourned meeting is or must be fixed in accordance with
the Washington Business Corporation Act, notice of the adjourned meeting must be
given to persons who are shareholders as of the new record date. At any
adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have
been transacted at the original meeting.
2.7 RECORD DATE. For the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to
notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders, or any adjournment thereof,
or entitled to receive payment of any dividend, the Board of Directors may fix
in advance a record date for any such determination of shareholders, such date
to be not more than seventy (70) days and, in the case of a meeting of
shareholders, not less than ten (10) days prior to the meeting or action
requiring such determination of shareholders. If no record date is fixed for the
determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of
shareholders, or shareholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the day
before the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which
the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as
the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of
shareholders. When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any
meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this section, such
determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof, unless the Board of
Directors fixes a new record date, which it must do if the meeting is adjourned
more than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date is fixed for the original
meeting.
2.8 RECORD OF SHAREHOLDERS ENTITLED TO VOTE. After fixing a record date
for a shareholders' meeting, the Corporation shall prepare an alphabetical list
of the names of all shareholders on the record date who are entitled to notice
of the shareholders' meeting. The list shall be arranged by voting group, and
within each voting group by class or series of shares, and show the address of
and number of shares held by each shareholder. A shareholder,
4.
<PAGE> 9
shareholder's agent, or a shareholder's attorney may inspect the shareholders
list, beginning ten days prior to the shareholders' meeting and continuing
through the meeting, at the Corporation's principal office or at a place
identified in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting will be held
during regular business hours and at the shareholder's expense. The shareholders
list shall be kept open for inspection during such meeting or any adjournment.
Failure to comply with the requirements of this section shall not affect the
validity of any action taken at such meeting.
2.9 TELEPHONIC MEETINGS. Shareholders may participate in a meeting by
means of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by which all
persons participating in the meeting can hear each other during the meeting, and
participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at a meeting.
2.10 PROXIES. At all meetings of shareholders, a shareholder may vote by
proxy executed in writing by the shareholder or by his duly authorized attorney
in fact. Such proxy shall be filed with the secretary of the Corporation before
or at the time of the meeting. No proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months
from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy.
2.11 ORGANIZATION
(a) At every meeting of shareholders, the Chairperson of the
Board of Directors, or, if a Chairperson has not been appointed or is absent,
the Chief Executive Officer, or, if the Chief Executive Officer is absent, a
chairman of the meeting chosen by a majority in interest of the shareholders
entitled to vote, present in person or by proxy, shall act as chairman. The
Secretary, or, in his absence, an Assistant Secretary directed to do so by the
Chief Executive Officer, shall act as secretary of the meeting.
(b) The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall be entitled
to make such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of shareholders as
it shall deem necessary, appropriate or convenient. Subject to such rules and
regulations of the Board of Directors, if any, the chairman of the meeting shall
have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures
and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are necessary,
appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting, including,

ARTICLE 3
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
3.1 MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY. All corporate powers shall be exercised
by or under the authority of, and the business and affairs of the Corporation
shall be managed under the direction of, the Board of Directors, except as may
be otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or the Washington
Business Corporation Act.
3.2 NUMBER OF DIRECTORS, QUALIFICATION. The authorized number of
directors of the Corporation shall be not less than five (5) nor more than nine
(9), the specific number to be set by resolution of the Board of Directors.
Directors need not be shareholders. No reduction of the authorized number of
directors shall have the effect of removing any director before that director's
term of office expires.
3.3 ELECTION. At the first annual meeting of shareholders and at each
annual meeting thereafter, the shareholders shall elect directors to hold office
at the annual meeting. If, for any reason, the directors shall not have been
elected at an annual meeting, they may be elected at a special meeting of
shareholders called for that purpose in accordance with these Bylaws. Despite
the expiration of a director's term, the director continues to serve until the
director's successor shall have been elected and qualified or until there is a
decrease in the number of directors.
3.4 VACANCIES. Any vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors (whether
caused by resignation, death, an increase in the number of directors, or
otherwise) may be filled the Board of Directors or the shareholders if not
filled by the Board. If the directors in office constitute fewer than a quorum
of the Board, they may fill the vacancy by the affirmative vote of a majority of
all the directors in office. A director elected to fill any vacancy shall hold
office until the next shareholders meeting at which directors are elected.
3.5 REMOVAL. One or more members of the Board of Directors (including
the entire Board) may be removed, with cause, at a meeting of shareholders
called expressly for that purpose. A director may be removed only if the number
of votes cast to remove the director exceeds the number of votes cast not to
remove the director. Neither the Board of Directors nor any individual director
may be removed without cause.
3.6 RESIGNATION. Any director may resign at any time by delivering his
written resignation to the Secretary, such resignation to specify whether it
will be effective at a particular time, upon receipt by the Secretary or at the
pleasure of the Board of Directors. If no such specification is made, it shall
be deemed effective at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. When one or more
directors shall resign from the Board of Directors, effective at a future date,
a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have so
resigned, shall have power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon
to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective, and
each Director so chosen shall hold office for the unexpired portion of the term
of the Director whose place shall be vacated and until his successor shall have
been duly elected and qualified.

3.7 ANNUAL MEETING. The first meeting of each newly elected Board of
Directors shall be known as the annual meeting thereof and shall be held without
notice immediately after the annual shareholders' meeting or any special
shareholders' meeting at which a Board is elected. Said meeting shall be held at
the same place as such shareholders' meeting unless some other place shall be
specified by resolution of the Board of Directors.
3.8 REGULAR MEETINGS. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors or of
any committee designated by the Board may be held at such place and such day and
hour as shall from time to time be fixed by resolution of the Board or
committee, without other notice than the delivery of such resolution as provided
in Section 3.10 below.
3.9 SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the Board of Directors or any
committee designated by the Board may be called by the Chief Executive Officer
or the Chairperson of the Board (if one be elected) or any director or committee
member, to be held at such place and such day and hour as specified by the
person or persons calling the meeting.
3.10 NOTICE OF MEETING. Notice of the date, time, and place of all
special meetings of the Board of Directors or any committee designated by the
Board shall be given by the Secretary, or by the person calling the meeting, by
mail, private carrier, telegram, facsimile transmission, or personal
communication over the telephone or otherwise, provided such notice is received
at least two (2) days prior to the day upon which the meeting is to be held.
No notice of any regular meeting need be given if the time and place
thereof shall have been fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors or any
committee designated by the Board and a copy of such resolution has been
delivered by mail, private carrier, telegram or facsimile transmission to every
director or committee member and is received at least two (2) days before the
first meeting held in pursuance thereof.
Notice of any meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee
designated by the Board need not be given to any director or committee member if
it is waived in a writing signed by the director entitled to the notice, whether
before or after such meeting is held.
A director's attendance at or participation in a meeting waives any
required notice to the director of the meeting unless the director at the
beginning of the meeting, or promptly upon the director's arrival, objects to
holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting and does not
thereafter vote for or assent to action taken at the meeting. Neither the
business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting
of the Board of Directors or any committee designated by the Board need be
specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting unless required by
the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws.
Any meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee designated by the
Board shall be a legal meeting without any notice thereof having been given if
all of the directors or committee members have received valid notice thereof,
are present without objecting, or waive notice thereof in a writing signed by
the director and delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minutes or
filing with the corporate records, or any combination thereof.

3.11 QUORUM OF DIRECTORS. A majority of the number of directors fixed by
or in the manner provided by these Bylaws shall constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business. If a quorum is present when a vote is taken, the
affirmative vote of a majority of directors present is the act of the Board of
Directors unless the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws require the vote
of a greater number of directors.
A majority of the directors present, whether or not constituting
a quorum, may adjourn any meeting to another time and place. If the meeting is
adjourned for more than forty-eight (48) hours, then notice of the time and
place of the adjourned meeting shall be given before the adjourned meeting takes
place, in the manner specified in Section 3.10 of these Bylaws, to the directors
who were not present at the time of the adjournment.
3.12 PRESUMPTION OF ASSENT. Any director who is present at any meeting
of the Board of Directors at which action on any corporate matter is taken shall
be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless (a) the director objects
at the beginning of the meeting, or promptly upon the director's arrival, to
holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting; (b) the director's
dissent or abstention from the action taken is entered in the minutes of the
meeting; or (c) the director delivers written notice of dissent or abstention to
the presiding officer of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or to the
Corporation within a reasonable time after adjournment of the meeting. Such
right to dissent or abstain shall not be available to any director who voted in
favor of such action.
3.13 ACTION BY DIRECTORS WITHOUT A MEETING. Any action required by law
to be taken or which may be taken at a meeting of the Board of Directors or of a
committee thereof may be taken without a meeting if one or more written
consents, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all of the
directors or all of the members of the committee, as the case may be, either
before or after the action taken and delivered to the Corporation for inclusion
in the minutes or filing with the corporate records. Such consent shall have the
same effect as a unanimous vote at a meeting duly held upon proper notice on the
date of the last signature thereto, unless the consent specifies a later
effective date.
3.14 TELEPHONIC MEETINGS. Members of the Board of Directors or any
committee designated by the Board may participate in a meeting of the Board or
committee by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment
by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other
during the meeting. Participation by such means shall constitute presence in
person at a meeting.
3.15 COMPENSATION. By resolution of the Board of Directors, the
directors and committee members may be paid their expenses, if any, or a fixed
sum or a stated salary as a director or committee member for attendance at each
meeting of the Board or of such committee as the case may be. No such payment
shall preclude any director or committee member from serving the Corporation in
any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor.
3.16 COMMITTEES. The Board of Directors, by resolution adopted by a
majority of the full Board, may from time to time designate from among its
members one or more committees, each of which must have two (2) or more members
and, to the extent provided in such resolution,

Corporation, to do so within limits specifically prescribed by the Board of
Directors.

procedures as govern the meetings of the Board of Directors. All committees so
appointed shall keep regular minutes of their meetings and shall cause them to
be recorded in books kept for that purpose at the office of the Corporation.

charge to each shareholder who so requests the powers, designations, preferences

in place of any certificate or certificates theretofore issued by the
Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon the making of

precedent to the issuance of a new certificate or certificates, the owner of
such lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his legal
representative, to agree to indemnify the Corporation in such manner as it shall
require or to give the Corporation a surety bond in such form and amount as it

person as may be authorized by the Board of Directors, and the corporate seal
impressed thereon or a facsimile of such seal imprinted thereon and attested by

any such bond, debenture or other corporate security shall be authenticated by
the manual signature, or where permissible facsimile signature, of a trustee
under an indenture pursuant to which such bond, debenture or other corporate
security shall be issued, the signatures of the persons signing and attesting

authenticated by a trustee as aforesaid, shall be signed by the Treasurer or an
Assistant Treasurer of the Corporation or such other person as may be authorized
by the Board of Directors, or bear imprinted thereon the facsimile signature of

debenture or other corporate security, or whose facsimile signature shall appear
thereon or on any such interest coupon, shall have ceased to be such officer
before the bond, debenture or other corporate security so signed or attested
shall have been delivered, such bond, debenture or other corporate security
nevertheless may be adopted by the Corporation and issued and delivered as
though the person who signed the same or whose facsimile signature shall have
been used thereon had not ceased to be such officer of the Corporation.
Except as otherwise specifically provided in these Bylaws, no shares of
stock shall be transferred on the books of the Corporation until the outstanding
certificate therefor has been surrendered to the Corporation. All certificates

ARTICLE 10
INDEMNIFICATION
10.1 RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION. Each individual (hereinafter an
"indemnitee") who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to
or is otherwise involved (including, without limitation, as a witness) in any
actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative and whether formal or informal (hereinafter a
"proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or
officer of the Corporation or that, while serving as a director or officer of
the Corporation, he or she is or was also serving at the request of the
Corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of
another foreign or domestic corporation or of a foreign or domestic partnership,
joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, whether the
basis of the proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as such a
director, officer, employee, partner, trustee, or agent or in any other capacity
while serving as such director, officer, employee, partner, trustee, or agent,
shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the full extent
permitted by applicable law as then in effect, against all expense, liability
and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines,
ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts to be
15.
<PAGE> 20
paid in settlement) incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection
therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to an indemnitee who has
ceased to be a director, officer, employee, partner, trustee, or agent and shall
inure to the benefit of the indemnitee's heirs, executors and administrators;
provided, however, that no indemnification shall be provided to any such
indemnitee if the Corporation is prohibited by the Washington Business
Corporation Act or other applicable law as then in effect from paying such
indemnification; and provided, further, that except as provided in Section 10.2
of this Article with respect to proceedings seeking to enforce rights to
indemnification, the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in
connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only
if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or ratified by the Board of
Directors. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section 10.1 shall be
a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the
expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition (hereinafter an "advancement of expenses"). Any advancement of
expenses shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of a written
undertaking (hereinafter an "undertaking"), by or on behalf of such indemnitee,
to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final
judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such
indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this
Section 10.1 and upon delivery to the Corporation of a written affirmation
(hereinafter an "affirmation") by the indemnitee of his or her good faith belief
that such indemnitee has met the standard of conduct necessary for
indemnification by the Corporation pursuant to this Article.
10.2 RIGHT OF INDEMNITEE TO BRING SUIT. If a written claim for
indemnification under Section 10.1 of this Article is not paid in full by the
Corporation within ninety (90) days after the Corporation's receipt thereof,
except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the
applicable period shall be twenty (20) days, the indemnitee may at any time
thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of
the claim. If successful, in whole or in part, in any such suit or in a suit
brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the
terms of an undertaking, the indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid also the
expenses of prosecuting or defending such suit. The indemnitee shall be presumed
to be entitled to indemnification under this Article upon submission of a
written claim (and, in an action brought to enforce a claim for an advancement
of expenses, where the required undertaking and affirmation have been tendered
to the Corporation) and thereafter the Corporation shall have the burden of
proof to overcome the presumption that the indemnitee is so entitled. Neither
the failure of the Corporation (including the Board of Directors, independent
legal counsel or the shareholders) to have made a determination prior to the
commencement of such suit that indemnification of the indemnitee is proper in
the circumstances nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including the
Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or the shareholders) that the
indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification shall be a defense to the suit or
create a presumption that the indemnitee is not so entitled.
10.3 NONEXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The right to indemnification and the

indemnification as provided in this Article.
10.5 INDEMNIFICATION OF EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS OF THE CORPORATION. The
corporation may, by action of the Board of Directors, grant rights to

provided by, the Washington Business Corporation Act or otherwise.
10.6 PERSONS SERVING OTHER ENTITIES. Any individual who is or was a
director, officer or employee of the Corporation who, while a director, officer
or employee of the Corporation, is or was serving (a) as a director or officer
of another foreign or domestic corporation of which a majority of the shares
entitled to vote in the election of its directors is held by the Corporation,
(b) as a trustee of an employee benefit plan and the duties of the director or
officer to the Corporation also impose duties on, or otherwise involve services
by, the director or officer to the plan or to participants in or beneficiaries
of the plan or (c) in an executive or management capacity in a foreign or
domestic partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise of which the
Corporation or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation is a general partner
or has a majority ownership or interest shall be deemed to be so serving at the
request of the Corporation and entitled to indemnification and advancement of
expenses under this Article.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
This INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") dated as of
____________, 1999 is made between INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION, a
Washington corporation (the "Company"), and ________________ ("Indemnitee").
RECITALS
WHEREAS, Indemnitee is a director or officer of the Company and in such
capacity is performing valuable services for the Company;
WHEREAS, the Company and Indemnitee recognize the difficulty in
obtaining directors' and officers' liability insurance and the significant cost
of such insurance;
WHEREAS, the Company and Indemnitee further recognize the substantial
increase in litigation subjecting directors and officers to expensive litigation
risks at the same time that such liability insurance has been severely limited;
WHEREAS, the Company has adopted bylaws (the "Bylaws") providing for
indemnification of the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Company
to the full extent permitted by the Business Corporation Act of Washington (the
"Statute");
WHEREAS, the Bylaws and the Statute specifically provide that they are
not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into
between the Company and its directors and officers with respect to
indemnification of such directors and officers; and
WHEREAS, to induce Indemnitee to serve or continue to serve as a
director or officer of the Company, the Company desires to confirm the contract
indemnification rights provided in the Bylaws and agrees to provide the
Indemnitee with the benefits contemplated by this Agreement.
AGREEMENT
In consideration of the recitals above, the mutual covenants and
agreements herein contained, and Indemnitee's continued service as a director or
officer, as the case may be, of the Company after the date hereof, the parties
to this Agreement agree as follows:
1. INDEMNIFICATION OF INDEMNITEE
1.1 SCOPE. The Company agrees to hold harmless and indemnify
Indemnitee to the full extent provided under the provisions of the Company's
Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws, and to the full
extent permitted by law, notwithstanding that the basis for such indemnification
is not specifically enumerated in this Agreement, the Company's Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any
1.
<PAGE> 2
statute or otherwise. In the event of any change, after the date of this
Agreement, in any applicable law, statute or rule regarding the right of a
Washington corporation to indemnify a member of its board of directors or an
officer, such change, to the extent that it would expand Indemnitee's rights
hereunder, shall be included within Indemnitee's rights and the Company's
obligations hereunder, and, to the extent that it would narrow Indemnitee's
rights or the Company's obligations hereunder, shall not affect or limit the
scope of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall any part of
this Agreement be construed so as to require indemnification when such
indemnification is not permitted by then applicable law.
1.2 NONEXCLUSIVITY. The indemnification provided by this
Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any rights to which Indemnitee may be
entitled under the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, the
Bylaws, any agreement, any vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, the
Statute, or otherwise, whether as to action in Indemnitee's official capacity or
otherwise.
1.3 INCLUDED COVERAGE. If Indemnitee was or is made a party, or
is threatened to be made a party, to or is otherwise involved (including,
without limitation, as a witness) in any Proceeding (as defined below), the
Company shall hold harmless and indemnify Indemnitee from and against any and
all losses, claims, damages (compensatory, exemplary, punitive or otherwise),
liabilities or expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, costs,
judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, witness fees, amounts paid in
settlement and other expenses incurred in connection with the investigation,
defense, settlement or approval of such Proceeding (collectively, "Damages").
1.4 DEFINITION OF PROCEEDING. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Proceeding" shall mean any completed, actual, pending or threatened action,
suit, claim, hearing or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, arbitrative,
administrative, investigative or pursuant to any alternative dispute resolution
mechanism (including an action by or in the right of the Company) and whether
formal or informal, in which Indemnitee is, was or becomes involved by reason of
the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Company or that, being or having been such a director, officer, employee or
agent, Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director,
officer, employee, trustee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise (collectively, a "Related Company"),
including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, whether the basis of
such proceeding is alleged action (or inaction) by Indemnitee in an official
capacity as a director, officer, employee, trustee or agent or in any other
capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee, trustee or agent;
provided, however, that, except with respect to an Enforcement Action (defined
in Section 3.1 below, an action challenging the Company's determination that
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 1.5, and any
other action to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, "Proceeding" shall not
include any action, suit, claim or proceeding instituted by or at the direction
of Indemnitee unless such action, suit, claim or proceeding is or was authorized
by the Company's Board of Directors.
1.5 DETERMINATION OF ENTITLEMENT. In the event that a
determination of Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification is required
pursuant to Section 23B.08.550 of the
2.
<PAGE> 3
Statute or a successor statute or pursuant to other applicable law, the
appropriate decision-maker shall make such determination; provided, however,
that Indemnitee shall initially be presumed in all cases to be entitled to
indemnification, that Indemnitee may establish a conclusive presumption of any
fact necessary to such a determination by delivering to the Company a
declaration made under penalty of perjury that such fact is true and that,
unless the Company shall deliver to Indemnitee written notice of a determination
that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification within twenty (20) calendar
days after the Company's receipt of Indemnitee's initial written request for
indemnification, such determination shall conclusively be deemed to have been
made in favor of the Company's provision of indemnification, and that the
Company hereby agrees not to assert otherwise.
1.6 CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided under Section
1.1 is unavailable by reason of a court decision, based on grounds other than
any of those set forth in paragraphs (b) through (d) of Section 4.1, then, in
respect of any Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee
(or would be if joined in such Proceeding), the Company shall contribute to the
amount of Damages (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred
and paid or payable by Indemnitee in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and
Indemnitee on the other from the transaction from which such Proceeding arose
and (ii) the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of Indemnitee on
the other in connection with the events that resulted in such Damages as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company
on the one hand and of Indemnitee on the other shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent the circumstances resulting in
such Damages. The Company agrees that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 1.6 were determined by pro rata allocation
or any other method of allocation that does not take account of the foregoing
equitable considerations.
1.7 SURVIVAL. The indemnification and contribution provided under
this Agreement shall apply to any and all Proceedings, notwithstanding that
Indemnitee has ceased to serve the Company or a Related Company and shall
continue so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any possible Proceeding,
whether civil, criminal or investigative, by reason of the fact that Indemnitee
was a director or officer of the Company or serving in any other capacity
referred to in Section 1.4 of this Agreement.
2. EXPENSE ADVANCES.
2.1 GENERALLY. The right to indemnification of Damages conferred
by Section 1 shall include the right to have the Company pay Indemnitee's
expenses in any Proceeding as such expenses are incurred and in advance of such
Proceeding's final disposition (such right, an "Expense Advance").
2.2 CONDITIONS TO EXPENSE ADVANCE. The Company's obligation to
provide an Expense Advance is subject to the following conditions:
3.
<PAGE> 4
2.2.1 UNDERTAKING. If the Proceeding arose in
connection with Indemnitee's service as a director or an officer of the Company
(and not in any other capacity in which Indemnitee rendered service, including
service to any Related Company), then Indemnitee or Indemnitee's representative
shall have executed and delivered to the Company an undertaking, which need not
be secured and shall be accepted without reference to Indemnitee's financial
ability to make repayment, by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay all Expense
Advances if it shall ultimately be determined by a final, unappealable decision
rendered by a court having jurisdiction over the parties that Indemnitee is not
entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement or otherwise.
2.2.2 COOPERATION. Indemnitee shall give the Company
such information and cooperation as it may reasonably request and as shall be
within Indemnitee's legal power to so provide.
2.2.3 AFFIRMATION. Indemnitee shall furnish, upon
request by the Company and if required under applicable law, a written
affirmation of Indemnitee's good faith belief that any applicable standards of
conduct have been met by Indemnitee.
3. PROCEDURES FOR ENFORCEMENT
3.1 ENFORCEMENT. In the event that any claim for indemnification,
whether an Expense Advance or otherwise, is made hereunder and is not paid in
full within ninety (90) calendar days after written notice of such claim is
delivered to the Company, Indemnitee may, but need not, at any time thereafter
bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim (an
"Enforcement Action"). It shall be a defense to any action for which a claim for
indemnification is made under Section 1 hereof (other than an action brought to
enforce a claim for expenses pursuant to Section 2 hereof, provided that the
required undertaking has been tendered to the Company) that Indemnitee is not
entitled to indemnification because of the limitations set forth in Section 4
hereof.
3.2 PRESUMPTIONS IN ENFORCEMENT ACTION. In any Enforcement
Action, the following presumptions (and limitation on presumptions) shall apply:
(a) The Company expressly affirms and agrees that it has
entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereunder
to induce Indemnitee to continue as a director or officer, as the case may be,
of the Company;
(b) Neither (i) the failure of the Company (including the
Company's Board of Directors, independent or special legal counsel or the
Company's shareholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement
of the Enforcement Action that indemnification of Indemnitee is proper in the
circumstances nor (ii) an actual determination by the Company, its Board of
Directors, independent or special legal counsel or shareholders that Indemnitee
is not entitled to indemnification shall be a defense to the Enforcement Action
or create a presumption that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder; and
4.
<PAGE> 5
(c) If Indemnitee is or was serving as a director or
officer of a corporation of which a majority of the shares entitled to vote in
the election of its directors is held by the Company or as a partner, trustee or
otherwise in an executive or management capacity in a partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise of which the Company or a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company is a general partner or has a majority ownership, then
such corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise shall
conclusively be deemed a Related Company and Indemnitee shall conclusively be
deemed to be serving such Related Company at the Company's request.
3.3 ATTORNEYS' FEES AND EXPENSES FOR ENFORCEMENT ACTION. In the
event Indemnitee is required to bring an Enforcement Action, the Company shall
pay all of Indemnitee's fees and expenses in bringing and pursuing the
Enforcement Action (including attorneys' fees at any stage, including on
appeal); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to provide
such payment for such attorneys' fees or expenses if a court of competent
jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by Indemnitee
in such Enforcement Action was not made in good faith.
4. LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNITY; MUTUAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT
4.1 LIMITATION ON INDEMNITY. No indemnity pursuant to this
Agreement shall be provided by the Company:
(a) On account of any suit in which a final, unappealable
judgment is rendered against Indemnitee for an accounting of profits made from
the purchase or sale by Indemnitee of securities of the Company in violation of
the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended;
(b) For Damages that have been paid directly to
Indemnitee by an insurance carrier under a policy of insurance maintained by
the Company;
(c) With respect to remuneration paid to Indemnitee if it
shall be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that such
remuneration was in violation of law;
(d) On account of Indemnitee's conduct which is finally
adjudged by a court having jurisdiction in the matter to have been intentional
misconduct, a knowing violation of law or the RCW 23B.08.310 or any successor
provision of the Statute, or a transaction from which Indemnitee derived an
improper personal benefit;
(e) If a final decision by a court having jurisdiction in
the matter with no further right of appeal shall determine that such
indemnification is not lawful (and, in this respect, both the Company and
Indemnitee have been advised that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC") believes that indemnification for liabilities arising under the federal
securities laws is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable and
that claims for indemnification should be submitted to appropriate courts for
adjudication); or
5.
<PAGE> 6
(f) In connection with any proceeding (or part thereof)
initiated by Indemnitee, or any proceeding by Indemnitee against the Company or
its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) such
indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, (ii) the proceeding was
authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company, (iii) such indemnification
is provided by the Company, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers
vested in the Company under the Statute, or (iv) the proceeding is initiated
pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof.
4.2 PARTIAL INDEMNIFICATION. If Indemnitee is entitled under any
provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a
portion of any Damages in connection with a Proceeding, but not, however, for
the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee
for the portion of such Damages to which Indemnitee is entitled.
4.3 MUTUAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The Company and Indemnitee acknowledge
that, in certain instances, federal law or public policy may override applicable
state law and prohibit the Company from indemnifying Indemnitee under this
Agreement or otherwise. For example, the Company and Indemnitee acknowledge that
the SEC has taken the position that indemnification is not permissible for
liabilities arising under certain federal securities laws, and federal
legislation prohibits indemnification for certain ERISA violations. Furthermore,
Indemnitee understands and acknowledges that the Company has undertaken or may
be required in the future to undertake with the SEC to submit the question of
indemnification to a court in certain circumstances for a determination of the
Company's right under public policy to indemnify Indemnitee.
5. NOTIFICATION AND DEFENSE OF CLAIM.
5.1 NOTIFICATION. Not later than thirty (30) days after receipt
by Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall,
if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this
Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement thereof; but the omission so
to notify the Company will not, however, relieve the Company from any liability
which it may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement unless and only to the
extent that such omission can be shown to have prejudiced the Company's ability
to defend the Proceeding.
If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to
Section 5.1, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect,
the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to
the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective
policies. The Company shall take all necessary or desirable action to cause such
insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of
such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.
6.
<PAGE> 7
5.2 DEFENSE OF CLAIM. With respect to any such Proceeding as to
which Indemnitee notifies the Company of the commencement thereof:
(a) The Company may participate therein at its own
expense;
(b) The Company, jointly with any other indemnifying
party similarly notified, may assume the defense thereof, with counsel
satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the Company to Indemnitee of its
election so to assume the defense thereof, the Company shall not be liable to
Indemnitee under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses (other than
reasonable costs of investigation) subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in
connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the employment of counsel by
Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company, (ii) Indemnitee shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the
Company (or any other person or persons included in the joint defense) and
Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, (iii) the Company shall
not, in fact, have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in
each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the Company's
expense, or (iv) the Company is not financially or legally able to perform its
indemnification obligations. The Company shall not be entitled to assume the
defense of any proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Company or as to which
Indemnitee shall have reasonably made the conclusion provided for in (ii) or
(iv) above;
(c) The Company shall not be liable to indemnify
Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any
Proceeding effected without its written consent;
(d) The Company shall not settle any action or claim in
any manner that would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without
Indemnitee's written consent; and
(e) Neither the Company nor Indemnitee will unreasonably
withhold its, his or her consent to any proposed settlement.
6. SEVERABILITY. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to require or
shall be construed as requiring the Company to do or to fail to do any act in
violation of applicable law. The Company's inability, pursuant to court order,
to perform its obligations under this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of
this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable, as provided
in this Section 6. If this Agreement or any portion hereof shall be invalidated
on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall
nevertheless indemnify or make contribution to Indemnitee to the full extent
permitted by any applicable portion of this Agreement that shall not have been
invalidated, and the balance of this Agreement not so invalidated shall be
enforceable in accordance with its terms.
7.
<PAGE> 8
7. GOVERNING LAW; BINDING EFFECT; AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION.
(a) This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of Washington.
(b) This Agreement shall be binding on Indemnitee and on the
Company and its successors and assigns (including any transferee of all or
substantially all its assets and any successor by merger or otherwise by
operation of law), and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and Indemnitee's
heirs, personal representatives and assigns and to the benefit of the Company
and its successors and assigns. The Company shall not effect any merger,
consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of its assets or other
reorganization in which it is not the surviving entity, unless the surviving
entity agrees in writing to assure all of the Company's obligations under this
Agreement.
(c) No amendment, modification, termination or cancellation of
this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing signed by both parties
hereto.
8. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement is the entire agreement of the
parties regarding its subject matter and supersedes all prior written or oral
communications or agreements.
9. 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 instrument.
10. AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS. Neither this Agreement nor any provision may be
amended except by written agreement signed by the parties. No waiver of any
breach or default shall be considered valid unless in writing, and no such
waiver shall be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default.

11. NOTICES. All notices, claims and other communications hereunder
shall be in writing and made by hand delivery, registered or certified mail

(b) If to Indemnitee, to the address specified on the last
page of this Agreement or to such other address as either party may from time to
time furnish to the other party by a notice given in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 11. All such notices, claims and communications shall
be deemed to have been duly given if (i) personally delivered, at the time
delivered, (ii) mailed, five days after dispatched, (iii) sent by facsimile
transmission, upon confirmation of receipt, and (iv) sent by any other means,
upon receipt.
12. DIRECTORS' AND OFFICERS' INSURANCE.
(a) The Company hereby covenants and agrees that, subject to the
provisions of Section 12(c) hereof, the Company shall, from a date no later than
the closing date of the Company's first registered public offering of the
Company's Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, maintain directors' and officers' insurance
in full force and effect so long as Indemnitee continues to serve as a director
or officer of the Company and thereafter so long as Indemnitee shall be subject
to any possible Proceeding.
(b) In all policies of directors' and officers' insurance,
Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide
Indemnitee the same rights and benefits, subject to the same limitations, as are
accorded to the Company's directors or officers most favorably insured by such
policy.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12,
the Company shall have no obligation to maintain directors' and officers'
insurance if the Company determines in good faith that such insurance is not
reasonably available, the premium costs for such insurance are disproportionate
to the amount of coverage provided, or the coverage provided by such insurance
is limited by exclusions so as to provide an insufficient benefit.

<PAGE> 10
13. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The Company and Indemnitee agree herein that a
monetary remedy for breach of this Agreement, at some later date, will be
inadequate, impracticable and difficult of proof, and further agree that such
breach would cause Indemnitee irreparable harm. Accordingly, the Company and
Indemnitee agree that Indemnitee shall be entitled to temporary and permanent
injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement without the necessity of proving
actual damages or irreparable harm. The Company and Indemnitee further agree
that Indemnitee shall be entitled to such injunctive relief, including temporary
restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions, without
the necessity of posting bond or other undertaking in connection therewith. Any
such requirement of bond or undertaking is hereby waived by the Company, and the
Company acknowledges that in the absence of such a waiver, a bond or undertaking
may be required by the court.
14. SUBROGATION. In the event of payment under this Agreement, the
Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights
of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all documents required and shall do
all acts that may be necessary to secure such rights and to enable the Company
effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the stock subject to the

(c) CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to an
Option may be paid in cash or by check at the time the Option is exercised or,

regulations, (i) by delivery to the Company of other Common Stock, (ii)
according to a deferred payment or other arrangement or (iii) by any other form
of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board and provided in the
Option Agreement.
In the case of any deferred payment arrangement (i) interest shall be

interest necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable

(g) EXTENSION OF TERMINATION DATE. If the exercise of the Option
following the termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service (other than

earlier of (i) the expiration of the term of the Option set forth in Subsection
7(a) or (ii) the expiration of a period of three (3) months after the
termination of the Optionholder's Continuous
5.
<PAGE> 6
Service during which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of
such registration requirements.

Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder's Disability, the

Company shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common Stock
required to satisfy such Options.
(b) SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. The Company shall seek to obtain from
each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such
authority as may be required to grant Options and to issue and sell shares of
Common Stock upon exercise of the Options; provided, however, that this
undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act
the Plan, any Option or any stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such
Option. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any
such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel for the Company
deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of stock under the Plan, the
Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell stock
upon exercise of such Options unless and until such authority is obtained.
9. USE OF PROCEEDS FROM STOCK.

requirements for exercise of the Option pursuant to its terms.
6.
<PAGE> 7
(b) NO SERVICE RIGHTS. Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed
or Option granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Optionholder any right
to continue to serve the Company as a Non-Employee Director or shall affect the
right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate (i) the employment of an
Employee with or without notice and with or without cause, (ii) the service of a
Consultant pursuant to the terms of such Consultant's agreement with the Company
or an Affiliate or (iii) the service of a Director pursuant to the Bylaws of the
Company or an Affiliate, and any applicable provisions of the corporate law of
the state in which the Company or the Affiliate is incorporated, as the case may
be.
(c) INVESTMENT ASSURANCES. The Company may require an Optionholder, as
a condition of exercising or acquiring stock under any Option, (i) to give
written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the Optionholder's
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a
purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who is
knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business matters and that he or
she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser
representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Option; and (ii) to give
written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that the Optionholder is
acquiring the stock subject to the Option for the Optionholder's own account and
not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the stock.
The foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such
requirements, shall be inoperative if (A) the issuance of the shares upon the
exercise or acquisition of stock under the Option has been registered under a
then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (B)
as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the
Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the
then applicable securities laws. The Company may, upon advice of counsel to the
Company, place legends on stock certificates issued under the Plan as such
counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to comply with applicable
securities laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting the transfer
of the stock.
(d) WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS. The Optionholder may satisfy any federal,
state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or
acquisition of stock under an Option by any of the following means (in addition
to the Company's right to withhold from any compensation paid to the
Optionholder by the Company) or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a
cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold shares from the shares of
the Common Stock otherwise issuable to the Optionholder as a result of the
exercise or acquisition of stock under the Option; or (iii) delivering to the
Company owned and unencumbered shares of the Common Stock. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not be authorized to withhold shares of Common
Stock at rates in excess of the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal
and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes.
11. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK.
(a) CAPITALIZATION ADJUSTMENTS. If any change is made in the stock
subject to the Plan, or subject to any Option, without the receipt of
consideration by the Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization, reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other
than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of
shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the
receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan will be appropriately
adjusted in the class(es) and
7.
<PAGE> 8
maximum number of securities subject both to the Plan pursuant to Subsection
4(a) and to the nondiscretionary Options specified in Section 5, and the
outstanding Options will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and number
of securities and price per share of stock subject to such outstanding Options.
The Board shall make such adjustments, and its determination shall be final,
binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the
Company shall not be treated as a transaction "without receipt of consideration"
by the Company.)
(b) DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION. In the event of a dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, then all outstanding Options shall terminate
immediately prior to such event.
(c) CHANGE IN CONTROL. In the event of (i) a sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, (ii) a merger or consolidation
in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or (iii) a reverse merger
in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the
merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or
otherwise, then any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation may assume
any Options outstanding under the Plan or may substitute similar Options
(including an option to acquire the same consideration paid to the stockholders
in the transaction described in this Subsection 11(c)) for those outstanding
under the Plan.
12. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND OPTIONS.
(a) AMENDMENT OF PLAN. The Board at any time, and from time to time,
may amend the Plan. However, except as provided in Section 11 relating to
adjustments upon changes in stock, no amendment shall be effective unless
approved by the stockholders of the Company to the extent stockholder approval
is necessary to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or any Nasdaq or
securities exchange listing requirements.
(b) STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL. The Board may, in its sole discretion, submit
any other amendment to the Plan for stockholder approval.
(c) NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS. Rights under any Option granted before
amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan unless
(i) the Company requests the consent of the Optionholder and (ii) the
Optionholder consents in writing.
(d) AMENDMENT OF OPTIONS. The Board at any time, and from time to time,
may amend the terms of any one or more Options; provided, however, that the
rights under any Option shall not be impaired by any such amendment unless (i)
the Company requests the consent of the Optionholder and (ii) the Optionholder
consents in writing.
13. TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.
(a) PLAN TERM. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time.
Unless sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the day before the tenth
(10th) anniversary of the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or approved by
the stockholders of the Company, whichever is earlier. No Options may be granted
under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.

shall not impair rights and obligations under any Option granted while the Plan
is in effect except with the written consent of the Optionholder.
14. EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.
The Plan shall become effective on the IPO Date, but no Option shall be
exercised unless and until the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the
Company, which approval shall be within twelve (12) months before or after the
date the Plan is adopted by the Board.

(a) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, then pursuant
to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve
Board which, prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the
receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable
instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales
proceeds (a "cashless exercise").
(b) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, then by
delivery of already-owned shares of Common Stock (valued at their Fair Market
Value on the date of exercise) if (i) either you have held the already-owned

earnings (generally six months) or you did not acquire the already-owned shares,
directly or indirectly from the Company, and (ii) you own the already-owned
shares free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests.
"Delivery" for these purposes shall include delivery to the Company of your

tender to the Company of Common Stock to the extent such
1.
<PAGE> 2
tender would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law, regulation or
agreement restricting the redemption of the Company's stock.
5. WHOLE SHARES. Your option may only be exercised for whole shares.
6. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, your option may not be exercised unless the shares issuable
upon exercise of your option are then registered under the Securities Act or, if
such shares are not then so registered, the Company has determined that such
exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act. The exercise of your option must also comply with other
applicable laws and regulations governing the option, and the option may not be
exercised if the Company determines that the exercise would not be in material
compliance with such laws and regulations.

expires upon the EARLIEST of the following:
(a) three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service for any reason other than death or Disability;
(b) twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service due to Disability;
(c) eighteen (18) months after your death if you die either during
your Continuous Service or within three (3) months after your Continuous Service

(d) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Date of Grant.
8. EXERCISE.
(a) You may exercise your option during its term by delivering a
Notice of Exercise (in a form designated by the Company) together with the
exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to such other person as the
Company may designate, during regular business hours, together with such
additional documents as the Company may then require.
(b) By exercising your option you agree that, as a condition to any
exercise of your option, the Company may require you to enter an arrangement
providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax withholding
obligation of the Company arising by reason of (1) the exercise of your option
or (2) the disposition of shares acquired upon such exercise.
9. TRANSFERABILITY. Your option is not transferable, except by will or
by the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during your life
only by you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the
Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third party
who, in the event of your death, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise your
option.
2.
<PAGE> 3
10. OPTION NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. Your option is not a service
contract, and nothing in your option shall obligate the Company or an Affiliate,
their respective shareholders, Boards of Directors, officers or employees to
continue any relationship that you might have as a Director.
11. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.
(a) At the time your option is exercised, in whole or in part, or
at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize
withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you, and otherwise
agree to make adequate provision for (including by means of a "cashless
exercise" pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by
the Federal Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums
required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding
obligations of the Company or an Affiliate, if any, which arise in connection
with your option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be
authorized to withhold shares of Common Stock at rates in excess of the minimum
statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including
payroll taxes.
(b) Your option is not exercisable unless the tax withholding
obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied. Accordingly, you
may not be able to exercise your option when desired even though your option is
vested.
12. NOTICES. Any notices provided for in your option or the Plan shall
be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in
the case of notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit
in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address
you provided to the Company.
13. GOVERNING PLAN DOCUMENT. Your option is subject to all applicable
provisions of the Plan, which are hereby made a part of your option, and is
further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which
may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the

(b) The Board (or the Committee) shall have the power, subject to, and

(i) To determine when and how Rights to purchase shares of the
Common Stock shall be granted and the provisions of each Offering of such Rights
(which need not be identical).
(ii) To designate from time to time which Affiliates of the Company
shall be eligible to participate in the Plan.
(iii) To construe and interpret the Plan and Rights granted under
it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its
administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any
defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan, in a manner and to the extent it
shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective.
(iv) To amend the Plan as provided in paragraph 14.
(v) To terminate or suspend the Plan as provided in paragraph 16.
(vi) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as

however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan,
as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. The Board may abolish the
Committee at any time and revest in the Board the administration of the Plan.
4. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.
(a) Subject to the provisions of paragraph 13 relating to adjustments
upon changes in securities, the shares of the Common Stock that may be sold
pursuant to Rights granted under the Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate one
million five hundred thousand (1,500,000) shares of the Common Stock the
("Reserved Shares"). As of the first nine (9) anniversaries of the Effective
Date of the Plan, the number of Reserved Shares will be automatically increased
by the lesser of (i) two percent (2%) of the total number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding on such anniversary date or (ii) one million five hundred
thousand (1,500,000) shares. If any Right granted under the Plan shall for any
reason terminate without having been exercised, the shares of the Common Stock
not purchased under such Right shall again become available for the Plan.
(b) The shares of the Common Stock subject to the Plan may be unissued
shares of the Common Stock or shares of the Common Stock that have been bought
on the open market at prevailing market prices or otherwise.
5. GRANT OF RIGHTS; OFFERING.
The Board may from time to time grant or provide for the grant of
Rights to purchase shares of the Common Stock under the Plan to Eligible
Employees in an Offering on an Offering Date or Dates selected by the Board.
Each Offering shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions
as the Board shall deem appropriate, which shall comply with the requirements of
Section 423(b)(5) of the Code that all Employees granted Rights to purchase
shares of the Common Stock under the Plan shall have the same rights and
privileges. The terms and conditions of an Offering shall be incorporated by
reference into the Plan and treated as part of the Plan. The provisions of
separate Offerings need not be identical, but each Offering shall include
(through incorporation of the provisions of this Plan by reference in the
document comprising the Offering or otherwise) the period during which the
Offering shall be effective, which period shall not exceed twenty-seven (27)
months beginning with the Offering Date, and the substance of the provisions
contained in paragraphs 6 through 9, inclusive.
6. ELIGIBILITY.
(a) Rights may be granted only to Employees of the Company or, as the
Board may designated as provided in subparagraph 3(b), to Employees of an
Affiliate. Except as provided in subparagraph 6(b), an Employee shall not be
eligible to be granted Rights under the Plan unless, on the Offering Date, such
Employee has been in the employ of the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may
be, for such continuous period preceding such grant as the Board may require,
but in no event shall the required period of continuous employment be equal to
or greater than two (2) years.
(b) The Board may provide that each person who, during the course of an
Offering, first becomes an Eligible Employee will, on a date or dates specified
in the Offering which coincides with the day on which such person becomes an
Eligible Employee or which occurs
4.
<PAGE> 5
thereafter, receive a Right under that Offering, which Right shall thereafter be
deemed to be a part of that Offering. Such Right shall have the same
characteristics as any Rights originally granted under that Offering, as
described herein, except that:
(i) the date on which such Right is granted shall be the "Offering
Date" of such Right for all purposes, including determination of the exercise
price of such Right;
(ii) the period of the Offering with respect to such Right shall
begin on its Offering Date and end coincident with the end of such Offering; and
(iii) the Board may provide that if such person first becomes an
Eligible Employee within a specified period of time before the end of the
Offering, he or she will not receive any Right under that Offering.
(c) No Employee shall be eligible for the grant of any Rights under the
Plan if, immediately after any such Rights are granted, such Employee owns stock
possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value
of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Affiliate. For purposes of this
subparagraph 6(c), the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in
determining the stock ownership of any Employee, and stock which such Employee
may purchase under all outstanding rights and options shall be treated as stock
owned by such Employee.
(d) An Eligible Employee may be granted Rights under the Plan only if
such Rights, together with any other Rights granted under all Employee Stock
Purchase Plans of the Company and any Affiliates, as specified by Section
423(b)(8) of the Code, do not permit such Eligible Employee's rights to purchase
shares of the Common Stock or any Affiliate to accrue at a rate which exceeds
twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000) of the fair market value of such shares
of the Common Stock (determined at the time such Rights are granted) for each
calendar year in which such Rights are outstanding at any time.
(e) The Board may provide in an Offering that Employees who are highly
compensated Employees within the meaning of Section 423(b)(4)(D) of the Code
shall not be eligible to participate.
7. RIGHTS; PURCHASE PRICE.
(a) On each Offering Date, each Eligible Employee, pursuant to an
Offering made under the Plan, shall be granted the Right to purchase up to the
number of shares of the Common Stock purchasable either:
(i) with a percentage designated by the Board not exceeding fifteen
percent (15%) of such Employee's Earnings (as defined by the Board in each
Offering) during the period which begins on the Offering Date (or such later
date as the Board determines for a particular Offering) and ends on the date
stated in the Offering, which date shall be no later than the end of the
Offering; or
(ii) with a maximum dollar amount designated by the Board that, as
the Board determines for a particular Offering, (1) shall be withheld, in whole
or in part, from such
5.
<PAGE> 6
Employee's Earnings (as defined by the Board in each Offering) during the period
which begins on the Offering Date (or such later date as the Board determines
for a particular Offering) and ends on the date stated in the Offering, which
date shall be no later than the end of the Offering and/or (2) shall be
contributed, in whole or in part, by such Employee during such period.
(b) The Board shall establish one or more Purchase Dates during an
Offering on which Rights granted under the Plan shall be exercised and purchases
of shares of the Common Stock carried out in accordance with such Offering.
(c) In connection with each Offering made under the Plan, the Board may
specify a maximum number of shares of the Common Stock that may be purchased by
any Participant as well as a maximum aggregate number of shares of the Common
Stock that may be purchased by all Participants pursuant to such Offering. In
addition, in connection with each Offering that contains more than one Purchase
Date, the Board may specify a maximum aggregate number of shares of the Common
Stock which may be purchased by all Participants on any given Purchase Date
under the Offering. If the aggregate purchase of shares of the Common Stock upon
exercise of Rights granted under the Offering would exceed any such maximum
aggregate amount, the Board shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares of
the Common Stock available in as nearly a uniform manner as shall be practicable
and as it shall deem to be equitable.
(d) The purchase price of shares of the Common Stock acquired pursuant
to Rights granted under the Plan shall be not less than the lesser of:
(i) an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market
value of the shares of the Common Stock on the Offering Date; or
(ii) an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair
market value of the shares of the Common Stock on the Purchase Date.
8. PARTICIPATION; WITHDRAWAL; TERMINATION.
(a) An Eligible Employee may become a Participant in the Plan pursuant
to an Offering by delivering a participation agreement to the Company within the
time specified in the Offering, in such form as the Company provides. Each such
agreement shall authorize payroll deductions of up to the maximum percentage
specified by the Board of such Employee's Earnings during the Offering (as
defined in each Offering). The payroll deductions made for each Participant
shall be credited to a bookkeeping account for such Participant under the Plan
and either may be deposited with the general funds of the Company or may be
deposited in a separate account in the name of, and for the benefit of, such
Participant with a financial institution designated by the Company. To the
extent provided in the Offering, a Participant may reduce (including to zero) or
increase such payroll deductions. To the extent provided in the Offering, a
Participant may begin such payroll deductions after the beginning of the
Offering. A Participant may make additional payments into his or her account
only if specifically provided for in the Offering and only if the Participant
has not already had the maximum permitted amount withheld during the Offering.
(b) At any time during an Offering, a Participant may terminate his or
her payroll deductions under the Plan and withdraw from the Offering by
delivering to the Company a
6.
<PAGE> 7
notice of withdrawal in such form as the Company provides. Such withdrawal may
be elected at any time prior to the end of the Offering except as provided by
the Board in the Offering. Upon such withdrawal from the Offering by a
Participant, the Company shall distribute to such Participant all of his or her
accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to the extent, if any, such deductions
have been used to acquire shares of the Common Stock for the Participant) under
the Offering, without interest unless otherwise specified in the Offering, and
such Participant's interest in that Offering shall be automatically terminated.
A Participant's withdrawal from an Offering will have no effect upon such
Participant's eligibility to participate in any other Offerings under the Plan
but such Participant will be required to deliver a new participation agreement
in order to participate in subsequent Offerings under the Plan.
(c) Rights granted pursuant to any Offering under the Plan shall
terminate immediately upon cessation of any participating Employee's employment
with the Company or a designated Affiliate for any reason (subject to any
post-employment participation period required by law) or other lack of
eligibility. The Company shall distribute to such terminated Employee all of his
or her accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to the extent, if any, such
deductions have been used to acquire shares of the Common Stock for the
terminated Employee) under the Offering, without interest unless otherwise
specified in the Offering. If the accumulated payroll deductions have been
deposited with the Company's general funds, then the distribution shall be made
from the general funds of the Company, without interest. If the accumulated
payroll deductions have been deposited in a separate account with a financial
institution as provided in subparagraph 8(a), then the distribution shall be
made from the separate account, without interest unless otherwise specified in
the Offering.
(d) Rights granted under the Plan shall not be transferable by a
Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or
by a beneficiary designation as provided in paragraph 15 and, otherwise during
his or her lifetime, shall be exercisable only by the person to whom such Rights
are granted.
9. EXERCISE.
(a) On each Purchase Date specified therefor in the relevant Offering,
each Participant's accumulated payroll deductions and other additional payments
specifically provided for in the Offering (without any increase for interest)
will be applied to the purchase of shares of the Common Stock up to the maximum
number of shares of the Common Stock permitted pursuant to the terms of the Plan
and the applicable Offering, at the purchase price specified in the Offering. No
fractional shares of the Common Stock shall be issued upon the exercise of
Rights granted under the Plan unless specifically provided for in the Offering.
(b) Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Offering, the amount,
if any, of accumulated payroll deductions remaining in any Participant's account
after the purchase of shares of the Common Stock that is equal to the amount
required to purchase one or more whole shares of the Common Stock on the final
Purchase Date of the Offering shall be distributed in full to the Participant at
the end of the Offering, without interest. If the accumulated payroll deductions
have been deposited with the Company's general funds, then the distribution
shall be made from the general funds of the Company, without interest. If the
accumulated payroll deductions have been deposited in a separate account with a
financial institution as provided in
7.
<PAGE> 8
subparagraph 8(a), then the distribution shall be made from the separate
account, without interest unless otherwise specified in the Offering.
(c) No Rights granted under the Plan may be exercised to any extent
unless the shares of the Common Stock to be issued upon such exercise under the
Plan (including Rights granted thereunder) are covered by an effective
registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act and the Plan is in
material compliance with all applicable state, foreign and other securities and
other laws applicable to the Plan. If on a Purchase Date in any Offering
hereunder the Plan is not so registered or in such compliance, no Rights granted
under the Plan or any Offering shall be exercised on such Purchase Date, and the
Purchase Date shall be delayed until the Plan is subject to such an effective
registration statement and such compliance, except that the Purchase Date shall
not be delayed more than twelve (12) months and the Purchase Date shall in no
event be more than twenty-seven (27) months from the Offering Date. If, on the
Purchase Date of any Offering hereunder, as delayed to the maximum extent
permissible, the Plan is not registered and in such compliance, no Rights
granted under the Plan or any Offering shall be exercised and all payroll
deductions accumulated during the Offering (reduced to the extent, if any, such
deductions have been used to acquire Shares) shall be distributed to the
Participants, without interest unless otherwise specified in the Offering. If
the accumulated payroll deductions have been deposited with the Company's
general funds, then the distribution shall be made from the general funds of the
Company, without interest. If the accumulated payroll deductions have been
deposited in a separate account with a financial institution as provided in
subparagraph 8(a), then the distribution shall be made from the separate
account, without interest unless otherwise specified in the Offering.
10. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
(a) During the terms of the Rights granted under the Plan, the Company
shall ensure that the number of shares of the Common Stock required to satisfy
such Rights are available.
(b) The Company shall seek to obtain from each federal, state, foreign
or other regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such
authority as may be required to issue and sell shares of the Common Stock upon
exercise of the Rights granted under the Plan. If, after reasonable efforts, the
Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the
authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance
and sale of shares of the Common Stock under the Plan, the Company shall be
relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell shares of the Common
Stock upon exercise of such Rights unless and until such authority is obtained.
11. USE OF PROCEEDS FROM SHARES.
Proceeds from the sale of shares of the Common Stock pursuant to Rights
granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company.
12. RIGHTS AS A SHAREHOLDER.
A Participant shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any
of the rights of a holder with respect to, shares of the Common Stock subject to
Rights granted under the Plan
8.
<PAGE> 9
unless and until the Participant's shares of the Common Stock acquired upon
exercise of Rights under the Plan are recorded in the books of the Company.
13. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN SECURITIES.
(a) If any change is made in the shares of the Common Stock subject to
the Plan, or subject to any Right, without the receipt of consideration by the
Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization,
reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock
split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change
in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of
consideration by the Company), the Plan will be appropriately adjusted in the
class(es) and maximum number of shares of the Common Stock subject to the Plan
pursuant to subparagraph 4(a), and the outstanding Rights will be appropriately
adjusted in the class(es), number of shares of the Common Stock and purchase
limits of such outstanding Rights. The Board shall make such adjustments, and
its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any
convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a transaction that
does not involve the receipt of consideration by the Company.)
(b) In the event of: (i) a dissolution, liquidation, or sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company; (ii) a merger or consolidation
in which the Company is not the surviving corporation; or (iii) a reverse merger
in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the shares of the Common
Stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of
the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or
otherwise, then: (1) any surviving or acquiring corporation may assume Rights
outstanding under the Plan or may substitute similar rights (including a right
to acquire the same consideration paid to the Company's shareholders in the
transaction described in this subparagraph 13(b)) for those outstanding under
the Plan, or (2) in the event any surviving or acquiring corporation does not
assume such Rights or substitute similar rights for those outstanding under the
Plan, then, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, such Rights may
continue in full force and effect or the Participants' accumulated payroll
deductions (exclusive of any accumulated interest which cannot be applied toward
the purchase of shares of the Common Stock under the terms of the Offering) may
be used to purchase shares of the Common Stock immediately prior to the
transaction described above under the ongoing Offering and the Participants'
Rights under the ongoing Offering thereafter terminated.
14. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN.
(a) The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the Plan.
However, except as provided in paragraph 13 relating to adjustments upon changes
in securities and except as to minor amendments to benefit the administration of
the Plan, to take account of a change in legislation or to obtain or maintain
favorable tax, exchange control or regulatory treatment for Participants or the
Company or any Affiliate, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the
shareholders of the Company to the extent shareholder approval is necessary for
the Plan to satisfy the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, Rule 16b-3
under the Exchange Act and any Nasdaq or other securities exchange listing
requirements. Currently under the Code, shareholder approval within twelve (12)
months before or after the adoption of the amendment is required where the
amendment will:
9.
<PAGE> 10
(i) Increase the number of shares of the Common Stock reserved for
Rights under the Plan;
(ii) Modify the provisions as to eligibility for participation in
the Plan to the extent such modification requires shareholder approval in order
for the Plan to obtain employee stock purchase plan treatment under Section 423
of the Code or to comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3; or
(iii) Modify the Plan in any other way if such modification
requires shareholder approval in order for the Plan to obtain employee stock
purchase plan treatment under Section 423 of the Code or to comply with the
requirements of Rule 16b-3.
(b) It is expressly contemplated that the Board may amend the Plan in
any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable to provide Employees with the
maximum benefits provided or to be provided under the provisions of the Code and
the regulations promulgated thereunder relating to Employee Stock Purchase Plans
and/or to bring the Plan and/or Rights granted under it into compliance
therewith.
(c) Rights and obligations under any Rights granted before amendment of
the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan, except with the
consent of the person to whom such Rights were granted, or except as necessary
to comply with any laws or governmental regulations, or except as necessary to
ensure that the Plan and/or Rights granted under the Plan comply with the
requirements of Section 423 of the Code.
15. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY.
(a) A Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who
is to receive any shares of the Common Stock and/or cash, if any, from the
Participant's account under the Plan in the event of such Participant's death
subsequent to the end of an Offering but prior to delivery to the Participant of
such shares of the Common Stock 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 the Plan in the event of such Participant's death
during an Offering.
(b) The Participant may change such designation of beneficiary 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 the Plan who is living at the
time of such Participant's death, the Company shall deliver such shares of the
Common Stock and/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 sole discretion, may deliver such
shares of the Common Stock and/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.
16. TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.
(a) The Board in its discretion may suspend or terminate the Plan at
any time. Unless sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate at the time that
all of the shares of the Common Stock subject to the Plan's reserve, as
increased and/or adjusted from time to time, have been issued
10.
<PAGE> 11
under the terms of the Plan. No Rights may be granted under the Plan while the
Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.
(b) Rights and obligations under any Rights granted while the Plan is
in effect shall not be impaired by suspension or termination of the Plan, except
as expressly provided in the Plan or with the consent of the person to whom such
Rights were granted, or except as necessary to comply with any laws or
governmental regulation, or except as necessary to ensure that the Plan and/or
Rights granted under the Plan comply with the requirements of Section 423 of the
Code.
17. EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.
The Plan shall become effective simultaneously with the effectiveness
of the Company's registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to
the initial public offering of shares of the Company's Common Stock (the
"Effective Date"), but no Rights granted under the Plan shall be exercised
unless and until the Plan has been approved by the shareholders of the Company
within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is adopted by the
Board, which date may be prior to the Effective Date set.

the Stock Issuance Program (each a "Participant") are limited to the following:
(1) key employees (including officers and directors)
of the Corporation (or its Parent or Subsidiary corporations, if any) who render

non-employee members of the board of directors of any Parent or Subsidiary
corporations; and
(3) those consultants or independent contractors who
provide valuable services to the Corporation (or its Parent or Subsidiary
corporations, if any).
(b) The Plan Administrator shall have full authority to
determine: (i) with respect to the option grants made under the Plan, which
eligible individuals are to receive option grants, the number of shares to be
covered by each such grant, the status of the granted option as either an
Incentive Option or a Non-Statutory Option, the time or times at which each
granted option is to become exercisable and the maximum term for which the
option may remain outstanding, and (ii) with respect to share issuances under
the Stock Issuance Program, the number of shares to be issued to each
Participant, the vesting schedule (if any) to be applicable to the issued
shares, and the consideration to be paid by the individual for such shares.

discretion either to grant options in accordance with Article II of the Plan or
to effect share issuances in accordance with Article III of the Plan.

(c) In the event any change is made to the Common Stock
issuable under the Plan by reason of any stock dividend, stock split,

outstanding Common Stock as a class without receipt of consideration, then
appropriate adjustments shall be made to (i) the aggregate number and/or class
of shares issuable under the Plan and (ii) the aggregate number and/or class of
shares and the option price per share in effect under each outstanding option in
order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of benefits thereunder. The
adjustments determined by the Plan Administrator shall be final, binding and

ARTICLE II
OPTION GRANT PROGRAM
SECTION 1. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS
Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be authorized by
action of the Plan Administrator and, at the discretion of the Plan
Administrator, may be either Incentive Options or Non-Statutory Options. Each
granted option shall be evidenced by one or more instruments in the form
approved by the Plan Administrator; provided, that each such instrument shall
comply with and incorporate the terms and conditions specified below. In
addition, each instrument evidencing an Incentive Option shall be subject to the
applicable provisions of Section 2 of this Article II.
(a) OPTION PRICE.
(1) The option price per share shall be fixed by the
Plan Administrator.
5
<PAGE> 6
(2) The option price shall become immediately due
upon exercise of the option, and subject to the provisions of Article IV,
Section 2, shall be payable in cash or check drawn to the Corporation's order.
Should the Corporation's outstanding Common Stock be registered under Section
12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act") at the
time the option is exercised, then the option price may also be paid as follows:
(A) in shares of Common Stock held by the
optionee for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to
the Corporation's earnings for financial reporting purposes and
valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date; or
(B) through a special sale and remittance
procedure pursuant to which the Optionee is to (i) provide
irrevocable written instructions to a designated brokerage firm
to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit
to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds, an amount
sufficient to cover the aggregate option price payable for the
purchased shares plus all applicable Federal and State income
and employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation
by reason of such purchase and (ii) concurrently provide written
directives to the Corporation to deliver the certificates for
the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to
effect the sale transaction.
(b) TERM AND EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. Each option granted under
the Plan shall be exercisable at such time or times, during such period, and for
such number of shares as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set
forth in the notice of grant and stock option agreement evidencing such option.
No option granted under the Plan, however, shall have a term in excess of ten
(10) years from the grant date. During the lifetime of the Optionee, the option
shall be exercisable only by the Optionee and shall not be assignable or
transferable by the Optionee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent
and distribution following the Optionee's death.
(c) TERMINATION OF SERVICE.
(1) Should the Optionee cease to remain in Service
for any reason (including death or Permanent Disability) while holding one or
more outstanding options under the Plan, then except to the extent otherwise
provided pursuant to Section 6 of this Article II, each such option shall remain
exercisable for the limited period of time (not to exceed twelve (12) months
after the date of such cessation of Service) specified by the Plan Administrator
in the option agreement. In no event, however, shall any such option be
exercisable after the specified expiration date of the option term. During such
limited period of exercisability, the option may not be exercised for more than
that number of shares (if any) for which such option is exercisable on the date
of the Optionee's cessation of Service. Upon the expiration of such period or
(if earlier) upon the expiration of the option term, the option shall terminate
and cease to be exercisable.
(2) Any option granted to an Optionee under the Plan
and exercisable in whole or in part on the date of the Optionee's death may be
subsequently exercised by the
6
<PAGE> 7
personal representative of the Optionee's estate or by the person or persons to
whom the option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee's will or in accordance
with the laws of descent and distribution. The maximum number of shares for
which such option may be exercised shall be limited to the number of shares (if
any) for which the option is exercisable on the date of the Optionee's cessation
of Service. Any such exercise of the option must be effected prior to the
earlier of the first anniversary of the date of the Optionee's death or the
specified expiration date of the option term. Upon the occurrence of either such
event, the option shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.
(3) Notwithstanding subsections (1) and (2) above,
the Plan Administrator shall have discretion, exercisable either at the time the
option is granted or at the time the Optionee ceases Service, to allow one or
more outstanding options held by the Optionee to be exercised, during the
limited period of exercisability following the Optionee's cessation of Service,
not only with respect to the number of shares for which the option is
exercisable at the time of the Optionee's cessation of Service but also with
respect to one or more subsequent installments of purchasable shares for which
the option otherwise would have become exercisable had such cessation of Service
not occurred.
(4) Notwithstanding any provision of this Article II
or any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, any options granted under
this Plan shall terminate as of the date the Optionee ceases to be in the
Service of the Corporation if the Optionee was terminated for "cause" or could
have been terminated for "cause." If the Optionee has an employment or
consulting agreement with the Corporation, the term "cause" shall have the
meaning given that term in such employment or consulting agreement. If the
Optionee does not have an employment or consulting agreement with the
Corporation, or if such agreement does not define the term "cause," the term
"cause" shall mean: (A) misconduct or dishonesty that materially adversely
affects the Corporation, including without limitation (i) an act materially in
conflict with the financial interests of the Corporation, (ii) an act that could
damage the reputation or customer relations of the Corporation, (iii) an act
that could subject the Corporation to liability, (iv) an act constituting sexual
harassment or other violation of the civil rights of coworkers, (v) failure to
obey any lawful instruction of the Board or any officer of the Corporation and
(vi) failure to comply with, or perform any duty required under, the terms of
any confidentiality, inventions or non-competition agreement the Optionee may
have with the Corporation, or (B) acts constituting the unauthorized disclosure
of any of the trade secrets or confidential information of the Corporation,
unfair competition with the Corporation or the inducement of any customer of the
Corporation to breach any contract with the Corporation. The right to exercise
any option shall be suspended automatically during the pendency of any
investigation by the Board or its designee, and/or any negotiations by the Board
or its designee and the Optionee, regarding any actual or alleged act or
omission by the Optionee of the type described in this section.
(d) SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. An Optionee shall have none of the
rights of a shareholder with respect to any shares covered by the option until
such Optionee shall have exercised the option and paid the option price.
7
<PAGE> 8
(e) REPURCHASE RIGHTS. The shares of Common Stock issued
under the Plan shall be subject to certain repurchase rights of the Corporation
in accordance with the following provisions:
(1) (A) The Plan Administrator shall have the
discretion to authorize the issuance of unvested shares of Common Stock under
the Plan. Should the optionee cease Service or should the Corporation consummate
a Corporate Transaction while the optionee is holding such unvested shares, the
Corporation shall have the right to repurchase, at the option price paid per
share, all or (at the discretion of the Corporation and with the consent of the
Optionee) any portion of those such shares. The terms and conditions upon which
such repurchase right shall be exercisable (including the period and procedure
for exercise and the appropriate vesting schedule for the purchased shares)
shall be established by the Plan Administrator and set forth in an instrument
evidencing such right.
(B) The repurchase right shall be assignable
to any person or entity selected by the Corporation, including one or more of
the Corporation's shareholders. If the selected assignee is other than a Parent
or Subsidiary corporation, however, then the assignee must make a cash payment
to the Corporation, upon the assignment of the repurchase right, in an amount
equal to the amount by which the Fair Market Value of the unvested shares at the
time subject to the assigned right exceeds the aggregate repurchase price
payable for such unvested shares.
(C) Upon the occurrence of a Corporate
Transaction, the Plan Administrator may, at its sole discretion, (i) terminate
all or any outstanding repurchase rights under the Plan and thereby cause the
shares subject to such rights to vest immediately in full, (ii) arrange for all
or any of the repurchase rights to be assigned to the successor corporation (or
parent thereof) in connection with the Corporate Transaction or (iii) exercise
the Corporation's right to repurchase any unvested shares contemporaneously with
the consummation of the Corporate Transaction if such right is provided in the
instrument pursuant to which such unvested shares were issued.
(2) Until such time as the Corporation's outstanding
shares of Common Stock are first registered under Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act,
the Corporation shall have the right of first refusal with respect to any
proposed sale or other disposition by the Optionee (or any successor in interest
by reason of purchase, gift or other mode of transfer) of any shares of Common
Stock issued under the Plan. Such right of first refusal shall be exercisable by
the Corporation (or its assignees) in accordance with the terms and conditions
established by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the instrument evidencing
such right.
SECTION 2. INCENTIVE OPTIONS
The terms and conditions specified below shall be applicable to
all Incentive Options granted under the Plan. Incentive Options may be granted
only to individuals who are Employees. Options that are specifically designated
as Non-Statutory Options when issued under the Plan shall not be subject to the
following terms and conditions.
8
<PAGE> 9
(a) OPTION PRICE. The option price per share of the Common
Stock subject to an Incentive Option shall in no event be less than one hundred
percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the grant
date; provided, if the individual to whom the option is granted is at the time a
Ten Percent Shareholder, then the option price per share shall not be less than
one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on
the grant date.
(b) DOLLAR LIMITATION. The aggregate Fair Market Value
(determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the Common Stock for
which one or more options granted to any Employee under this Plan (or any other
option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary corporation) may for
the first time become exercisable as incentive stock options under the Federal
tax laws during any one calendar year shall not exceed the sum of one hundred
thousand dollars ($100,000). To the extent the Employee holds two or more such
options which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year,
the foregoing limitation on the exercisability thereof as Incentive Options
under the Federal tax laws shall be applied on the basis of the order in which
such options are granted.
(c) OPTION TERM FOR TEN PERCENT SHAREHOLDER. No option
granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder shall have a term in excess of five (5)
years from the grant date.
Except as modified by the preceding provisions of this
Section 2, all the provisions of the Plan shall be applicable to the Incentive
Options granted hereunder.
SECTION 3. CORPORATE TRANSACTION
(a) In connection with any Corporate Transaction, the Plan
Administrator, in its sole discretion, may (i) accelerate each or any
outstanding option under the Plan so that each or any such option, immediately
prior to the specified effective date for such Corporate Transaction, shall
become fully exercisable with respect to the total number of shares of Common
Stock at the time subject to such option and may be exercised for all or any
portion of such shares, (ii) arrange for each or any outstanding option either
to be assumed by the successor corporation or parent thereof or to be replaced
with a comparable option to purchase shares of the capital stock of the
successor corporation or parent thereof, (iii) arrange for the option to be
replaced by a comparable cash incentive program of the successor corporation
based on the option spread (the amount by which the Fair Market Value of the
shares of Common Stock subject at the time to the option exceeds the option
price payable for such shares), or (iv) take none of the actions described in
clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above and allow the option to terminate as provided
in Section 4(b) below. The determination of comparability under clauses (ii) and
(iii) above shall be made by the Plan Administrator, and such determination
shall be final, binding and conclusive.
(b) In the event of any Corporate Transaction, each option
outstanding under the Plan shall terminate upon the consummation of such
Corporate Transaction and cease to be exercisable, unless the Plan Administrator
takes one of the actions set forth in Section 4(a) above.
9
<PAGE> 10
(c) If the outstanding options under the Plan are assumed by
the successor corporation (or parent thereof) in the Corporate Transaction or
are otherwise to continue in effect following such Corporate Transaction, then
each such assumed or continuing option, immediately after such Corporate
Transaction, shall be appropriately adjusted to apply and pertain to the number
and class of securities or other property that would have been issuable to the
option holder, in consummation of the Corporate Transaction, had the option been
exercised immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction. Appropriate
adjustments shall also be made to the option price payable per share, provided
the aggregate option price payable for such securities or other property shall
remain the same. In addition, the number and class of securities or other
property available for issuance under the Plan following the consummation of
such Corporate Transaction shall be appropriately adjusted.
(d) The exercisability as incentive stock options under the
Federal tax laws of any options accelerated in connection with the Corporate
Transaction shall remain subject to the applicable dollar limitation of
subsection 2(b) of this Article II.
(e) The grant of options under this Plan shall in no way
affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or
otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate,
dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or
assets.
SECTION 4. CANCELLATION AND NEW GRANT OF OPTIONS
The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to effect, at
any time and from time to time, with the consent of the affected Optionees, the
cancellation of any or all outstanding options under the Plan and to grant in
substitution therefor new options under the Plan covering the same or different
numbers of shares of Common Stock but having, in the case of an Incentive
Option, an option price per share not less than one hundred percent (100%) of
such Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the new grant date, or, in
the case of a Ten Percent Shareholder, not less than one hundred and ten percent
(110%) of such Fair Market Value.
SECTION 5. EXTENSION OF EXERCISE PERIOD
The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority to
extend (either at the time the option is granted or at any time that the option
remains outstanding) the period of time for which the option is to remain
exercisable following the Optionee's cessation of Service, from the limited
period set forth in the option agreement, to such greater period of time as the
Plan Administrator may deem appropriate under the circumstances. In no event,
however, shall such option be exercisable after the specified expiration date of
the option term.

ARTICLE III
STOCK ISSUANCE PROGRAM
SECTION 1. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK ISSUANCES
Shares of Common Stock shall be issuable under the Stock
Issuance Program through direct and immediate issuances without any intervening
stock option grants. Each such stock issuance shall be evidenced by a Stock
Issuance Agreement ("Issuance Agreement") that complies with the terms and
conditions of this Article III.
(a) ISSUE PRICE.
(1) Shares may, in the absolute discretion of the
Plan Administrator, be issued for consideration with a value less than
one-hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the issued shares.
(2) Shares shall be issued under the Plan for such
consideration as the Plan Administrator shall from time to time determine,
provided that in no event shall shares be issued for consideration other than:
(A) cash or check payable to the
Corporation,
(B) a promissory note in favor of the
Corporation, which may be subject to cancellation by the Corporation in
whole or in part upon such terms and conditions as the Plan
Administrator shall specify, or
(C) services rendered.
(b) VESTING SCHEDULE.
(1) In the discretion of the Plan Administrator, the
interest of a Participant in the shares of Common Stock issued to such
Participant under the Plan may be fully and immediately vested upon issuance or
may vest in one or more installments in accordance with the vesting provisions
of subsection (b)(4) below. Except as otherwise provided in subsection (b)(2),
the Participant may not transfer any issued shares in which such Participant
does not have a vested interest. Accordingly, all unvested shares issued under
the Plan shall bear the restrictive legend specified in Article IV, Section 1,
until such legend is removed in accordance with such section. Regardless of
whether or not a Participant's interest in such shares is vested, such
Participant shall be entitled to exercise all the rights of a shareholder with
respect to the shares of Common Stock issued to Participant hereunder, including
the right to vote such shares and to receive any cash dividends or other
distributions paid or made with respect to such shares. Any new, additional or
different shares of stock or other property (including money paid other than as
a regular cash dividend) that the holder of unvested Common Stock may have the
right to receive with respect to such unvested shares by reason of a stock
dividend, stock split, reclassification or other change affecting the
outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation's receipt of
consideration therefor shall be issued subject to (i) the same vesting
requirements under subsection (b)(4) applicable to the unvested
11
<PAGE> 12
Common Stock and (ii) such escrow arrangements as the Plan Administrator shall
deem appropriate.
(2) As used in this Article III, the term "transfer"
shall include (without limitation) any sale, pledge, encumbrance, gift or other
disposition of such shares. A Participant shall have the right to make a gift of
unvested shares acquired under the Stock Issuance Program to Participant's
spouse, parents or issue or to a trust established for such spouse, parents or
issue, provided the donee of such shares delivers to the Corporation, at the
time of such donee's acquisition of the gifted shares, a written agreement to be
bound by all the provisions of the Plan and the Issuance Agreement executed by
the Participant.
(3) Should the Participant cease Service for any
reason while Participant's interest in the Common Stock remains unvested, then
the Corporation shall have the right to repurchase, at the original purchase
price paid by the Participant, all or (at the discretion of the Corporation and
with the consent of the Participant) any portion of the shares in which the
Participant is not at the time vested, and the Participant shall thereafter
cease to have any further shareholder rights with respect to the repurchased
shares.
(4) Any shares of Common Stock issued under the
Stock Issuance Program that are not vested at the time of such issuance shall
vest in one or more installments thereafter. The elements of the vesting
schedule, specifically, the performance or service objectives to be completed or
achieved, the number of installments in which the shares are to vest, the
interval or intervals (if any) that are to lapse between installments and the
effect that death, Permanent Disability or other event designated by the Plan
Administrator is to have upon the vesting schedule, shall be determined by the
Plan Administrator and specified in the Issuance Agreement.
(5) In its discretion, the Plan Administrator may
elect not to exercise, in whole or in part, its repurchase rights with respect
to any unvested Common Stock or other assets that would otherwise at the time be
subject to repurchase pursuant to the provisions of subsection (b)(3) above.
Such an election shall result in the immediate vesting of the Participant's
interest in the shares of Common Stock as to which the election applies.
(6) No shares of Common Stock or other assets shall
be issued or delivered under this Plan unless and until, in the opinion of
counsel for the Corporation (or its successor in the event of any Corporate
Transaction), there shall have been compliance with all applicable requirements
of the securities exchange on which stock of the same class is then listed and
all other requirements of Federal and state law or of any regulatory bodies
having jurisdiction over such issuance and delivery.
(c) RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. The Plan Administrator may also
in its discretion establish as a term and condition of the issuance of one or
more shares of Common Stock under the Stock Issuance Program that the
Corporation shall have a right of first refusal with respect to any proposed
disposition by the Participant (or any successor in interest by reason of
purchase, gift or other mode of transfer) of one or more shares of such Common
Stock. Such right of first refusal shall be exercisable by the Corporation (or
its assignees) in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in the
instrument evidencing such right.
12
<PAGE> 13
SECTION 2. CORPORATE TRANSACTION
Upon the occurrence of a Corporate Transaction, the Plan
Administrator, in its discretion, may (i) terminate all or any outstanding
repurchase rights under this Article III of the Plan and thereby cause the
shares subject to such rights to vest immediately in full, (ii) arrange for all
or any of the repurchase rights to be assigned to the successor corporation (or
parent thereof) in connection with the Corporate Transaction or (iii) exercise
the Corporation's right to repurchase any unvested shares contemporaneously with
the consummation of the Corporate Transaction if such right is provided in the
Issuance Agreement pursuant to which such unvested shares were issued.
ARTICLE IV
MISCELLANEOUS
SECTION 1. STOCK LEGENDS. Each certificate representing shares of Common
Stock (or other securities) issued pursuant to the Plan shall bear restrictive
legends substantially as follows:
(1) "The shares represented by this certificate have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The shares may not
be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the
absence of an effective registration statement for the shares
under said Act and laws or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to
the Corporation that such registration is not required with
respect to such sale or offer."
(2) "This certificate and the shares represented hereby may not be
sold, assigned, transferred, encumbered, or in any manner
disposed of except in conformity with the terms of written
agreements between the Company and the registered holder of the
shares (or the predecessor in interest to the shares). Upon
written request, the Company will furnish without charge a copy
of such agreements to the holder hereof."
SECTION 2. LOANS
(a) The Plan Administrator, in its discretion, may assist
any Optionee or Participant (including an Optionee or Participant who is an
officer or director of the Corporation) in the exercise of one or more options
granted to such Optionee under the Article II Option Grant Program or the
purchase of one or more shares issued to such Participant under the Article III
Stock Issuance Program, including the satisfaction of any Federal and State
income and employment tax obligations arising therefrom, by
(1) authorizing the extension of a loan from the
Corporation to such Optionee or Participant, or
(2) permitting the Optionee or Participant to pay
the option price or purchase price for the purchased Common Stock in
installments over a period of years.
13
<PAGE> 14
(b) The terms of any loan or installment method of payment
(including the interest rate and terms of repayment applicable thereto) shall be
established by the Plan Administrator. Loans or installment payments may be
granted with or without security or collateral; provided, that any loan made to
a consultant or other non-employee advisor must be secured by property other
than the purchased shares of Common Stock. In all events the maximum credit
available to each Optionee or Participant may not exceed the sum of (i) the
aggregate option price or purchase price payable for the purchased shares (less
the par value of such shares rounded up to the nearest whole cent) plus (ii) any
Federal and State income and employment tax liability incurred by the Optionee
or Participant in connection with such exercise or purchase.
(c) The Plan Administrator, in its discretion, may determine
that one or more loans extended under the financial assistance program shall be
subject to forgiveness by the Corporation in whole or in part upon such terms
and conditions as the Board deems appropriate.
SECTION 3. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND AWARDS
(a) The Board shall have complete and exclusive power and
authority to amend or modify the Plan in any or all respects whatsoever;
provided, that no such amendment or modification shall adversely affect the
rights and obligations of an Optionee with respect to options at the time
outstanding under the Plan, nor adversely affect the rights of any Participant
with respect to Common Stock issued under the Plan prior to such action, unless
the Optionee or Participant consents to such amendment. In addition, the Board
shall not, without the approval of the Corporation's shareholders, amend the
Plan to (i) materially increase the maximum number of shares issuable under the
Plan (except for permissible adjustments under Article I, Section 5(c)), (ii)
materially increase the benefits accruing to individuals who participate in the
Plan, or (iii) materially modify the eligibility requirements for participation
in the Plan.
(b) Options to purchase shares of Common Stock may be
granted under the Option Grant Program and shares of Common Stock may be issued
under the Stock Issuance Program, which in both instances are in excess of the
number of shares then available for issuance under the Plan, provided any excess
shares actually issued under the Option Grant Program or the Stock Issuance
Program are held in escrow until the Corporation's shareholders approve an
amendment that sufficiently increases the number of shares of Common Stock
available for issuance under the Plan. If such shareholder approval is not
obtained within twelve (12) months after the date the initial excess stock
option grants or direct stock issuances are made, then any unexercised options
representing such excess shall terminate and cease to be exercisable and the
Corporation shall promptly refund to the Optionees and Participants the option
or purchase price paid for any excess shares issued under the Plan and held in
escrow, together with interest (at the applicable Short Term Federal Rate)
thereon for the period the shares were held in escrow.
SECTION 4. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF PLAN
(a) The Plan shall become effective when adopted by the
Board, but no option granted under the Plan shall become exercisable, and no
shares shall be issuable under the Stock Issuance Program, unless and until the
Plan shall have been approved by the Corporation's
14
<PAGE> 15
shareholders. If such shareholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12)
months after the date of the Board's adoption of the Plan, then all options
previously granted under the Plan shall terminate, and no further options shall
be granted and no shares shall be issued under the Stock Issuance Program.
Subject to such limitation, the Plan Administrator may grant options under the
Plan at any time after the effective date and before the date fixed herein for
termination of the Plan.
(b) The Plan shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) ten
years after the adoption of the Plan or (ii) the date on which all shares
available for issuance under the Plan have been issued or canceled pursuant to

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORP.
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, capitalized terms used
in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Section 21
of this Agreement.
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has adopted the Plan for
the purpose of attracting and retaining the services of selected key employees
(including officers and directors), non-employee members of the Board and
consultants and other independent contractors who contribute to the financial
success of the Company; and
WHEREAS, Optionee is an individual who is to render valuable services to
the Company, and this Agreement is executed pursuant to, and is intended to
carry out the purposes of, the Plan in connection with the Company's grant of a
stock option to Optionee;
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows:
1. GRANT OF OPTION. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, the Company hereby grants to Optionee,
as of the Grant Date, a stock option to purchase up to that number of Option
Shares specified in the Grant Notice. The Option Shares shall be purchasable
from time to time during the option term and at the Option Price per share
specified in the Grant Notice.
2. OPTION TERM. This Option shall expire at the close of business
on the Expiration Date specified in the Grant Notice, unless sooner terminated
in accordance with Section 5, 6 or 18 hereof; provided, in no event shall this
option have a maximum term in excess of ten (10) years measured from the Grant
Date.
3. NONTRANSFERABILITY. This option shall be neither transferable
nor assignable by Optionee other than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution following the Optionee's death and may be exercised, during
Optionee's lifetime, only by Optionee.
4. DATES OF EXERCISE. This option may not be exercised in whole or
in part at any time prior to the time the Plan is approved by the Company's
shareholders in accordance with Section 18 hereof. Provided such shareholder
approval is obtained, this option shall thereupon become exercisable for the
Option Shares as specified in the Grant Notice. If the option becomes
exercisable in installments, such installments shall accumulate and the option
shall remain exercisable for such installments until the Expiration Date or the
sooner termination of the option term under Section 5 or 6 of this Agreement.
5. ACCELERATED TERMINATION OF OPTION TERM. The option term
specified in Section 2 above shall terminate (and this option shall cease to be
exercisable) prior to the Expiration Date should any of the following provisions
become applicable:
(a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (b) or (c)
below, should Optionee cease to remain in Service while this option is
outstanding, then the period for exercising this option shall be reduced to a
three (3)-month period commencing with the date of
<PAGE> 2
such cessation of Service, but in no event shall this option be exercisable at
any time after the Expiration Date. Upon the expiration of such three (3)-month
period or (if earlier) upon the Expiration Date, this option shall terminate and
cease to be outstanding.
(b) Should Optionee die while this option is outstanding, then
the personal representative of the Optionee's estate or the person or persons to
whom the option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee's will or in accordance
with the law of descent and distribution shall have the right to exercise this
option. Such right shall lapse, and this option shall cease to be exercisable,
upon the earlier of (i) the expiration of the twelve (12) month period measured
from the date of Optionee's death or (ii) the Expiration Date. Upon the
expiration of such twelve (12) month period or (if earlier) upon the Expiration
Date, this option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding.
(c) Should Optionee become Permanently Disabled and cease by
reason thereof to remain in Service while this option is outstanding, then the
Optionee shall have a period of twelve (12) months (commencing with the date of
such cessation of Service) during which to exercise this option, but in no event
shall this option be exercisable at any time after the Expiration Date. Upon the
expiration of such limited period of exercisability or (if earlier) upon the
Expiration Date, this option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding.
(d) During the limited period of exercisability applicable under
subsections (a), (b) or (c) above, this option may be exercised for any or all
of the Option Shares in which the Optionee, at the time of cessation of Service,
is vested in accordance with the exercise/vesting provisions specified in the
Grant Notice or the special acceleration provisions of Section 6 of this
Agreement.
(e) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 5 or any other
provision of this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, any options granted
under the Plan shall terminate as of the date Optionee ceases to be in the
Service of the Company if Optionee was terminated for "cause" or could have been
terminated for "cause." If Optionee has an employment or consulting agreement
with the Company, the term "cause" shall have the meaning given that term in the
employment or consulting agreement. If Optionee does not have such an agreement
with the Company, or if such agreement does not define the term "cause," the
term "cause" shall mean: (1) misconduct or dishonesty that materially adversely
affects the Company, including without limitation (i) an act materially in
conflict with the financial interests of the Company, (ii) an act that could
damage the reputation or customer relations of the Company, (iii) an act that
could subject the Company to liability, (iv) an act constituting sexual
harassment or other violation of the civil rights of coworkers, (v) failure to
obey any lawful instruction of the Board or any officer of the Company, and (vi)
failure to comply with, or perform any duty required under the terms of any
confidentiality, inventions or non-competition agreement Optionee may have with
the Company, or (2) acts constituting the unauthorized disclosure of any of the
trade secrets or confidential information of the Company, unfair competition
with the Company or the inducement of any customer of the Company to breach any
contract with the Company. The right to exercise any option shall be suspended
automatically during the pendency of any investigation by the Board or its
designee, and/or any negotiations by the Board or its designee and Optionee,
regarding any actual or alleged act or omission by Optionee of the type
described in this subsection.

6. CORPORATE TRANSACTION.
(a) In connection with any Corporate Transaction, the Plan
Administrator, in its sole discretion, may (i) accelerate this option so that
this option, immediately prior to the specified effective date for such
Corporate Transaction, shall become fully exercisable with respect to all of the
Option Shares and may be exercised for all or any portion of such shares, (ii)
arrange for this option either to be assumed by the successor corporation or
parent thereof or to be replaced with a comparable option to purchase shares of
the capital stock of the successor corporation or parent thereof, (iii) arrange
for this option to be replaced by a comparable cash incentive program of the
successor corporation based on the option spread (the amount by which the Fair
Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject at the time to the option
exceeds the Option Price payable for such shares) or (iv) take none of the
actions described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above and allow this option to
terminate as provided in Section 6(b) below. The determination of comparability
under clauses (ii) and (iii) above shall be made by the Plan Administrator, and
its determination shall be final and conclusive.
(b) This option shall terminate upon the consummation of any
Corporate Transaction, unless the Plan Administrator takes one of the actions
set forth in Section 6(a) above.
(c) The exercisability of this option as an incentive stock
option under the Federal tax laws (if designated as such in the Grant Notice),
in connection with any such Corporate Transaction, shall be subject to the
applicable dollar limitation of Section 19 below.
(d) This Agreement shall not in any way affect the right of
the Company to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise make changes in its
capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or
sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
7. ADJUSTMENT IN OPTION SHARES.
(a) In the event any change is made to the Company's
outstanding Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend,
combination of shares, exchange of shares, or other change affecting the
outstanding Common Stock as a class without receipt of consideration, then
appropriate adjustments shall be made to the total number of Option Shares
subject to this option and the Option Price payable per share in order to
reflect such change and thereby preclude a dilution or enlargement of benefits
hereunder.
(b) If this option is to be assumed or is otherwise to
remain outstanding after a Corporate Transaction, then this option shall be
appropriately adjusted to apply and pertain to the number and class of
securities that would have been issuable to the Optionee in the consummation of
such Corporate Transaction had the option been exercised immediately prior to
such Corporate Transaction, and appropriate adjustments shall also be made to
the Option Price payable per share, provided the aggregate Option Price payable
hereunder shall remain the same.
8. PRIVILEGE OF STOCK OWNERSHIP. The holder of this option shall
not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Option Shares
until such individual shall have exercised the option and paid the Option Price.

the Plan Administrator at the time of exercise in accordance with the provisions
of Section 15.

(b) Should the Company's outstanding common stock be
registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "1934 Act"), at the time the option is exercised, then the Option
Price may also be paid as follows:
(1) in shares of the Common Stock held by the
Optionee for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company's
earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the
Exercise Date; or
(2) through a special sale and remittance procedure
pursuant to which the Optionee (i) is to provide irrevocable written
instructions to a designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of the
purchased shares and remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds, an amount
sufficient to cover the aggregate Option Price payable for the purchased shares
plus all applicable Federal and state income and employment taxes required to be
withheld by the Company by reason of such purchase and (ii) concurrently
provides written directives to the Company to deliver the certificates for the
purchased shares directly to such broker-dealer in order to effect the sale
transaction.
(c) Except to the extent the special sale and remittance

accompany the delivery of the Purchase Agreement. As soon after such payment as

favorable tax treatment as an incentive stock option under the Federal tax laws
if (and to the extent) the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the Grant
Date) of the Common Stock for which such installment first becomes exercisable
hereunder, when added to the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the
respective date or dates of grant) of the Common Stock for which this option or

prior to the Grant Date (whether under the Plan or any other option plan of the
Company or any Parent or Subsidiary corporations) first become exercisable
during the same calendar year, would exceed one hundred thousand dollars

Common Stock for which this option first becomes exercisable in the calendar
year in which the Corporate Transaction occurs does not, when added to the

Shares hereunder, and the Optionee must make appropriate arrangements for the

with the requirements of the Securities Act, if applicable, and (ii) that such

Each Option shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. All Options shall be separately
designated Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options at the time of
grant, and, if certificates are issued, a separate certificate or certificates
will be issued for shares of Common Stock purchased on exercise of each type of

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Nonstatutory Stock Option may be granted with

Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option
in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code.
(d) CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of Common Stock acquired
pursuant to an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable
statutes and regulations, either (i) in cash at the time the Option is exercised
or (ii) at the discretion of the Board at the time of the grant of the Option
(or subsequently in the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option) (1) by delivery to
the Company of other Common Stock, (2) according to a deferred payment or other
similar arrangement with the Optionholder (including an arrangement involving a
promissory note issued by the Optionholder) or (3) in any other form of legal
consideration that may be acceptable to the Board; provided, however, that at

Stock's "par value," as defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law, shall
not be made by deferred payment.
In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest shall be
compounded at least annually and shall be charged at the minimum rate of
interest necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable
provisions of the Code, of any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest
under the deferred payment arrangement.
(e) TRANSFERABILITY OF AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. An Incentive Stock
Option shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder
only by the Optionholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Optionholder may,
by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the
Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the
Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.
(f) TRANSFERABILITY OF A NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION. A Nonstatutory
Stock Option granted prior to the Listing Date shall not be transferable except
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and, to the extent provided
in the Option Agreement, to such further extent as permitted by Section
260.140.41(d) of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations at the time of
the grant of the Option, and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the
Optionholder only by the Optionholder. A Nonstatutory Stock Option granted on or

except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be
exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Optionholder may, by delivering written
notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, designate a third
party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be
entitled to exercise the Option.

subject to such other terms and conditions on
9.
<PAGE> 10
the time or times when it may be exercised (which may be based on performance or

individual Options may vary. The provisions of this subsection 6(g) are subject
to any Option provisions governing the minimum number of shares of Common Stock
as to which an Option may be exercised.

foregoing subsection 6(g), to the extent that the following restrictions on
vesting are required by Section 260.140.41(f) of Title 10 of the California Code
of Regulations at the time of the grant of the Option, then:
(i) Options granted prior to the Listing Date to an Employee
who is not an Officer, Director or Consultant shall provide for vesting of the

(20%) per year over five (5) years from the date the Option was granted, subject
to reasonable conditions such as continued employment; and

Directors or Consultants may be made fully exercisable, subject to reasonable
conditions such as continued employment, at any time or during any period
established by the Company.

Optionholder's Continuous Service terminates (other than upon the Optionholder's
death or Disability or for Cause), the Optionholder may exercise his or her
Option (to the extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option
as of the date of termination) but only within such period of time ending on the
earlier of (i) the date three (3) months following the termination of the
Optionholder's Continuous Service (or such longer or shorter period specified in
the Option Agreement, which period shall not be less than thirty (30) days for
Options granted prior to the Listing Date unless such termination is for cause),
or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option
Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her
Option within the time specified in the Option Agreement, the Option shall
terminate. In the event an Optionholder's Continuous Service terminates for
Cause, then his or her Option shall terminate immediately upon such event.
(j) EXTENSION OF TERMINATION DATE. An Optionholder's Option
Agreement may also provide that if the exercise of the Option following the
termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service (other than upon the
Optionholder's death or Disability or for Cause) would be prohibited at any time
solely because the issuance of shares of Common Stock would violate the
registration requirements under the Securities Act, then the Option shall
terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of the term of the Option set
forth in subsection 6(a) or (ii) the expiration of a period of three (3) months
after the termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service during which the
exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such registration
requirements.
(k) DISABILITY OF OPTIONHOLDER. In the event that an Optionholder's
Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder's Disability, the
Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder
was entitled to exercise such Option as of the
10.
<PAGE> 11
date of termination), but only within such period of time ending on the earlier
of (i) the date twelve (12) months following such termination (or such longer or
shorter period specified in the Option Agreement, which period shall not be less
than six (6) months for Options granted prior to the Listing Date) or (ii) the
expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If,
after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her Option within
the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.
(l) DEATH OF OPTIONHOLDER. In the event (i) an Optionholder's
Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder's death or (ii)
the Optionholder dies within the period (if any) specified in the Option
Agreement after the termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service for a
reason other than death, then the Option may be exercised (to the extent the
Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of death) by
the Optionholder's estate, by a person who acquired the right to exercise the
Option by bequest or inheritance or by a person designated to exercise the
option upon the Optionholder's death pursuant to subsection 6(e) or 6(f), but
only within the period ending on the earlier of (1) the date eighteen (18)
months following the date of death (or such longer or shorter period specified
in the Option Agreement, which period shall not be less than six (6) months for
Options granted prior to the Listing Date) or (2) the expiration of the term of
such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after death, the Option is
not exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.
(m) EARLY EXERCISE. The Option may, but need not, include a
provision whereby the Optionholder may elect at any time before the
Optionholder's Continuous Service terminates to exercise the Option as to any
part or all of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option prior to the
full vesting of the Option. Subject to the "Repurchase Limitation" in subsection
10(h), any unvested shares of Common Stock so purchased may be subject to a
repurchase option in favor of the Company or to any other restriction the Board
determines to be appropriate.
(n) RIGHT OF REPURCHASE. Subject to the "Repurchase Limitation" in
subsection 10(h), the Option may, but need not, include a provision whereby the
Company may elect, prior to the Listing Date, to repurchase all or any part of
the vested shares of Common Stock acquired by the Optionholder pursuant to the
exercise of the Option.
(o) RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. The Option may, but need not, include a
provision whereby the Company may elect, prior to the Listing Date, to exercise
a right of first refusal following receipt of notice from the Optionholder of
the intent to transfer all or any part of the shares of Common Stock received
upon the exercise of the Option. Except as expressly provided in this subsection
6(o), such right of first refusal shall otherwise comply with any applicable
provisions of the Bylaws of the Company.
(p) RE-LOAD OPTIONS. Without in any way limiting the authority of
the Board to make or not to make grants of Options hereunder, the Board shall
have the authority (but not an obligation) to include as part of any Option
Agreement a provision entitling the Optionholder to a further Option (a "Re-Load
Option") in the event the Optionholder exercises the Option evidenced by the
Option Agreement, in whole or in part, by surrendering other shares of
11.
<PAGE> 12
Common Stock in accordance with this Plan and the terms and conditions of the
Option Agreement. Any such Re-Load Option shall (i) provide for a number of
shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock surrendered
as part or all of the exercise price of such Option; (ii) have an expiration
date which is the same as the expiration date of the Option the exercise of
which gave rise to such Re-Load Option; and (iii) have an exercise price which
is equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common
Stock subject to the Re-Load Option on the date of exercise of the original
Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Re-Load Option shall be subject to the
same exercise price and term provisions heretofore described for Options under
the Plan.
Any such Re-Load Option may be an Incentive Stock Option or a
Nonstatutory Stock Option, as the Board may designate at the time of the grant
of the original Option; provided, however, that the designation of any Re-Load
Option as an Incentive Stock Option shall be subject to the one hundred thousand
dollar ($100,000) annual limitation on the exercisability of Incentive Stock
Options described in subsection 10(d) and in Section 422(d) of the Code. There
shall be no Re-Load Options on a Re-Load Option. Any such Re-Load Option shall
be subject to the availability of sufficient shares of Common Stock under
subsection 4(a) and the "Section 162(m) Limitation" on the grants of Options
under subsection 5(c) and shall be subject to such other terms and conditions as
the Board may determine which are not inconsistent with the express provisions
of the Plan regarding the terms of Options.
7. PROVISIONS OF STOCK AWARDS OTHER THAN OPTIONS.
(a) STOCK BONUS AWARDS. Each stock bonus agreement shall be in such
form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem
appropriate. The terms and conditions of stock bonus agreements may change from

to the "Repurchase Limitation" in subsection 10(h), in the event a Participant's

date of termination under the terms of the stock bonus agreement.

For a stock bonus award made on or after the Listing Date, rights to acquire
shares of Common Stock under the stock bonus agreement shall be transferable by
the Participant only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the
stock bonus agreement, as the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long
as Common Stock awarded under the stock bonus agreement remains subject to the
terms of the stock bonus agreement.
(b) RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS. Each restricted stock purchase
agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as
the Board shall deem appropriate. The terms and conditions of the restricted

identical, but each restricted stock purchase agreement shall include (through
incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise)

5(b) regarding Ten Percent Shareholders, the purchase price under each
restricted stock purchase agreement shall be such amount as the Board shall
determine and designate in such restricted stock purchase agreement. For
restricted stock awards made prior to the Listing Date, the purchase price shall
not be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Common Stock's Fair Market
Value on the date such award is made or at the time the purchase is consummated.
For restricted stock awards made on or after the Listing Date, the purchase
price shall not be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Common Stock's
Fair Market Value on the date such award is made or at the time the purchase is
consummated.
(ii) CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of Common Stock
acquired pursuant to the restricted stock purchase agreement shall be paid
either: (i) in cash at the time of purchase; (ii) at the discretion of the
Board, according to a deferred payment or other similar arrangement with the
Participant; or (iii) in any other form of legal consideration that may be
acceptable to the Board in its discretion; provided, however, that at any time
that the Company is incorporated in Delaware, then payment of the Common Stock's
"par value," as defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law, shall not be
made by deferred payment.
(iii) VESTING. Subject to the "Repurchase Limitation" in
subsection 10(h), shares of Common Stock acquired under the restricted stock
purchase agreement may, but need not, be subject to a share repurchase option in
favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by
the Board.
(iv) TERMINATION OF PARTICIPANT'S CONTINUOUS SERVICE. Subject
to the "Repurchase Limitation" in subsection 10(h), in the event a Participant's
Continuous Service terminates, the Company may repurchase or otherwise reacquire
any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by the Participant which have not
vested as of the date of termination under the terms of the restricted stock
purchase agreement.
13.
<PAGE> 14
(v) TRANSFERABILITY. For a restricted stock award made
before the Listing Date, rights to acquire shares of Common Stock under the
restricted stock purchase agreement shall not be transferable except by will or
by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the
lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant. For a restricted stock
award made on or after the Listing Date, rights to acquire shares of Common
Stock under the restricted stock purchase agreement shall be transferable by the
Participant only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the
restricted stock purchase agreement, as the Board shall determine in its
discretion, so long as Common Stock awarded under the restricted stock purchase
agreement remains subject to the terms of the restricted stock purchase
agreement.
8. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
(a) AVAILABILITY OF SHARES. During the terms of the Stock Awards,
the Company shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common
Stock required to satisfy such Stock Awards.
(b) SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. The Company shall seek to obtain from
each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such
authority as may be required to grant Stock Awards and to issue and sell shares
of Common Stock upon exercise of the Stock Awards; provided, however, that this
undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act
the Plan, any Stock Award or any Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any
such Stock Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain
from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel for
the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock
under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to
issue and sell Common Stock upon exercise of such Stock Awards unless and until
such authority is obtained.
9. USE OF PROCEEDS FROM STOCK.
Proceeds from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Stock Awards shall
constitute general funds of the Company.
10. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) ACCELERATION OF EXERCISABILITY AND VESTING. The Board shall have
the power to accelerate the time at which a Stock Award may first be exercised
or the time during which a Stock Award or any part thereof will vest in
accordance with the Plan, notwithstanding the provisions in the Stock Award
stating the time at which it may first be exercised or the time during which it
will vest.
(b) SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. No Participant shall be deemed to be the
holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares
of Common Stock subject to such Stock Award unless and until such Participant
has satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Stock Award pursuant to its
terms.
14.
<PAGE> 15
(c) NO EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER SERVICE RIGHTS. Nothing in the Plan or
any instrument executed or Stock Award granted pursuant thereto shall confer
upon any Participant any right to continue to serve the Company or an Affiliate
in the capacity in effect at the time the Stock Award was granted or shall
affect the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate (i) the employment
of an Employee with or without notice and with or without cause, (ii) the
service of a Consultant pursuant to the terms of such Consultant's agreement
with the Company or an Affiliate or (iii) the service of a Director pursuant to
the Bylaws of the Company or an Affiliate, and any applicable provisions of the
corporate law of the state in which the Company or the Affiliate is
incorporated, as the case may be.
(d) INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION $100,000 LIMITATION. To the extent that
the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of Common
Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the
first time by any Optionholder during any calendar year (under all plans of the
Company and its Affiliates) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), the
Options or portions thereof which exceed such limit (according to the order in
which they were granted) shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options.
(e) INVESTMENT ASSURANCES. The Company may require a Participant, as
a condition of exercising or acquiring Common Stock under any Stock Award, (i)
to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the Participant's
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a
purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who is
knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business matters and that he or
she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser
representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Stock Award; and (ii) to
give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that the Participant
is acquiring Common Stock subject to the Stock Award for the Participant's own
account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing
the Common Stock. The foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant
to such requirements, shall be inoperative if (iii) the issuance of the shares
of Common Stock upon the exercise or acquisition of Common Stock under the Stock
Award has been registered under a then currently effective registration
statement under the Securities Act or (iv) as to any particular requirement, a
determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not
be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities laws. The
Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place legends on stock
certificates issued under the Plan as such counsel deems necessary or
appropriate in order to comply with applicable securities laws, including, but
not limited to, legends restricting the transfer of the Common Stock.
(f) WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS. To the extent provided by the terms of
a Stock Award Agreement, the Participant may satisfy any federal, state or local
tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or acquisition of Common
Stock under a Stock Award by any of the following means (in addition to the
Company's right to withhold from any compensation paid to the Participant by the
Company) or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii)
authorizing the Company to withhold shares of Common Stock from the shares of
Common Stock otherwise issuable to the Participant as a result of the exercise
or acquisition of Common Stock under the Stock Award in an amount not to exceed
the minimum amount of tax
15.
<PAGE> 16
required to be withheld by law; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and
unencumbered shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
shall not be authorized to withhold shares of Common Stock at rates in excess of
the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes,
including payroll taxes.
(g) INFORMATION OBLIGATION. Prior to the Listing Date, to the extent
required by Section 260.140.46 of Title 10 of the California Code of
Regulations, the Company shall deliver financial statements to Participants at
least annually. This subsection 10(g) shall not apply to key Employees whose
duties in connection with the Company assure them access to equivalent
information.
(h) REPURCHASE LIMITATION. The terms of any repurchase option shall
be specified in the Stock Award and may be either at Fair Market Value at the
time of repurchase or at not less than the original purchase price. To the
extent required by Section 260.140.41 and Section 260.140.42 of Title 10 of the
California Code of Regulations at the time a Stock Award is made, any repurchase
option contained in a Stock Award granted prior to the Listing Date to a person
who is not an Officer, Director or Consultant shall be upon the terms described
below:
(i) FAIR MARKET VALUE. If the repurchase option gives the
Company the right to repurchase the shares of Common Stock upon termination of
employment at not less than the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock
to be purchased on the date of termination of Continuous Service, then (i) the
right to repurchase shall be exercised for cash or cancellation of purchase
money indebtedness for the shares of Common Stock within ninety (90) days of
termination of Continuous Service (or in the case of shares of Common Stock
issued upon exercise of Stock Awards after such date of termination, within
ninety (90) days after the date of the exercise) or such longer period as may be
agreed to by the Company and the Participant (for example, for purposes of
satisfying the requirements of Section 1202(c)(3) of the Code regarding
"qualified small business stock") and (ii) the right terminates when the shares
of Common Stock become publicly traded.
(ii) ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE. If the repurchase option gives
the Company the right to repurchase the shares of Common Stock upon termination
of Continuous Service at the original purchase price, then (i) the right to
repurchase at the original purchase price shall lapse at the rate of at least
twenty percent (20%) of the shares of Common Stock per year over five (5) years
from the date the Stock Award is granted (without respect to the date the Stock
Award was exercised or became exercisable) and (ii) the right to repurchase
shall be exercised for cash or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness for
the shares of Common Stock within ninety (90) days of termination of Continuous
Service (or in the case of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of
Options after such date of termination, within ninety (90) days after the date
of the exercise) or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Company and
the Participant (for example, for purposes of satisfying the requirements of
Section 1202(c)(3) of the Code regarding "qualified small business stock").
11. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK.
16.
<PAGE> 17
(a) CAPITALIZATION ADJUSTMENTS. If any change is made in the Common
Stock subject to the Plan, or subject to any Stock Award, without the receipt of
consideration by the Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization, reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other
than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of
shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the
receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan will be appropriately
adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of securities subject to the Plan
pursuant to subsection 4(a) and the maximum number of securities subject to
award to any person pursuant to subsection 5(c), and the outstanding Stock
Awards will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and number of securities
and price per share of Common Stock subject to such outstanding Stock Awards.
The Board shall make such adjustments, and its determination shall be final,
binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the
Company shall not be treated as a transaction "without receipt of consideration"
by the Company.)
(b) DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION. In the event of a dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, then all outstanding Stock Awards shall terminate
immediately prior to such event.
(c) CERTAIN CHANGES IN CONTROL. In the event of (i) a sale, lease or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, (ii)
a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation
or (iii) a reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but
the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are
converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of
securities, cash or otherwise (collectively, a "Change in Control"), then any
surviving corporation or acquiring corporation may assume or continue any Stock
Awards outstanding under the Plan or may substitute similar stock awards
(including an award to acquire the same consideration paid to the shareholders
in the transaction described in this subsection 11(c)) for those outstanding
under the Plan. In the event any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation
refuses to assume or continue such Stock Awards or to substitute similar stock
awards for those outstanding under the Plan, then with respect to Stock Awards
held by Participants whose Continuous Service has not terminated, the vesting of
such Stock Awards (and, if applicable, the time during which such Stock Awards
may be exercised) shall be accelerated in full, and the Stock Awards shall
terminate if not exercised (if applicable) at or prior to such event. With
respect to any other Stock Awards outstanding under the Plan, such Stock Awards
shall terminate if not exercised (if applicable) prior to such event.
(d) TERMINATION OF SERVICE FOLLOWING A CHANGE IN CONTROL. Unless
otherwise specified in the applicable Stock Award Agreement, in the event of the
occurrence of a Change in Control and provided that a Participant's Stock Award
remains in effect following such Change in Control or is assumed, continued or
substituted for any similar stock award in connection with the Change in
Control, then, if such Participant's Continuous Service is terminated by the
Company without Cause within thirteen (13) months following the effective date
of the Change in Control, all Stock Awards held by such Participant (or any
substituted stock awards) shall, as of the date of such termination of
Continuous Service, vest in full and become fully exercisable (if applicable) to
the extent not previously vested or exercisable. Such Stock Awards shall remain
exercisable until they expire in accordance with their terms.
17.
<PAGE> 18
(e) SECURITIES ACQUISITION. After the Listing Date, in the event of
an acquisition by any person, entity or group within the meaning of Section
13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act, or any comparable successor provisions
(excluding any employee benefit plan, or related trust, sponsored or maintained
by the Company or an Affiliate) of the beneficial ownership (within the meaning
of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or comparable successor rule)
of securities of the Company representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the
combined voting power entitled to vote in the election of Directors, then with
respect to Stock Awards held by Participants whose Continuous Service has not
terminated, the vesting of such Stock Awards (and, if applicable, the time
during which such Stock Awards may be exercised) shall be accelerated in full.
Such Stock Awards shall remain exercisable until they expire in accordance with
their terms.
(f) PARACHUTE PAYMENTS. If any payment or benefit Optionholder would
receive in connection with a Change in Control from the Company or otherwise
("Payment") would (i) constitute a "parachute payment" within the meaning of
Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and
(ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999
of the Code (the "Excise Tax"), then such Payment shall be reduced to the
Reduced Amount. The "Reduced Amount" shall be either (x) the largest portion of
the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the
Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the
Payment, whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal,
state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed
at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in Optionholder's receipt, on
an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that
all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a
reduction in payments or benefits constituting "parachute payments" is necessary
so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the
following order unless the Optionholder elects in writing a different order
(provided, however, that such election shall be subject to Company approval if
made on or after the effective date of the Change of Control): reduction of cash
payments; cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock awards; reduction of
employee benefits. In the event that acceleration of vesting of stock award
compensation is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled
in the reverse order of the date of grant of the Optionholder's stock awards
unless the Optionholder elects in writing a different order for cancellation.
The accounting firm engaged by the Company for general audit purposes as
of the day prior to the effective date of the Change in Control shall perform
the foregoing calculations. If the accounting firm so engaged by the Company is
serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting
the Change in Control, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized
accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder. The Company shall
bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting firm
required to be made hereunder.
The accounting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder shall
provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to
the Company and Optionholder within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on
which Optionholder's right to a Payment arises (if requested at that time by the
Company or Optionholder) or at such other time as requested by
18.
<PAGE> 19
the Company or Optionholder. If the accounting firm determines that no Excise
Tax is payable with respect to a Payment, either before or after the application
of the Reduced Amount, it shall furnish the Company and Optionholder with an
opinion reasonably acceptable to Optionholder that no Excise Tax will be imposed
with respect to such Payment. Any good faith determination of the accounting
firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and
Optionholder.
12. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND STOCK AWARDS.
(a) AMENDMENT OF PLAN. The Board at any time, and from time to time,
may amend the Plan. However, except as provided in Section 11 relating to
adjustments upon changes in Common Stock, no amendment shall be effective unless
approved by the shareholders of the Company to the extent shareholder approval
is necessary to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, Rule 16b-3
or any NASDAQ or securities exchange listing requirements.
(b) SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. The Board may, in its sole discretion,
submit any other amendment to the Plan for shareholder approval, including, but
not limited to, amendments to the Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of
Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder regarding the
exclusion of performance-based compensation from the limit on corporate
deductibility of compensation paid to certain executive officers.
(c) CONTEMPLATED AMENDMENTS. It is expressly contemplated that the
Board may amend the Plan in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable
to provide eligible Employees with the maximum benefits provided or to be
provided under the provisions of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder relating to Incentive Stock Options and/or to bring the Plan and/or
Incentive Stock Options granted under it into compliance therewith.
(d) NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS. Rights under any Stock Award granted
before amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan
unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the Participant and (ii) the
Participant consents in writing.
(e) AMENDMENT OF STOCK AWARDS. The Board at any time, and from time
to time, may amend the terms of any one or more Stock Awards; provided, however,
that the rights under any Stock Award shall not be impaired by any such
amendment unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the Participant and
(ii) the Participant consents in writing.
13. TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.
(a) PLAN TERM. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any
time. Unless sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the day before the
tenth (10th) anniversary of the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or
approved by the shareholders of the Company, whichever is earlier. No Stock
Awards may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is
terminated.
19.
<PAGE> 20
(b) NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS. Suspension or termination of the Plan
shall not impair rights and obligations under any Stock Award granted while the
Plan is in effect except with the written consent of the Participant.
14. EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.
The Plan shall become effective as determined by the Board, but no Stock
Award shall be exercised (or, in the case of a stock bonus, shall be granted)
unless and until the Plan has been approved by the shareholders of the Company,
which approval shall be within twelve (12) months before or after the date the
Plan is adopted by the Board.
15. CHOICE OF LAW.
The law of the State of Washington shall govern all questions concerning
the construction, validity and interpretation of this Plan, without regard to
such state's conflict of laws rules.

EXHIBIT 10.8
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
1999 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
(INCENTIVE AND NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS)
Pursuant to your Stock Option Grant Notice ("Grant Notice") and this
Stock Option Agreement, InterNAP Network Services Corporation (the "Company")
has granted you an option under its 1999 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") to
purchase the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock indicated in your
Grant Notice at the exercise price indicated in your Grant Notice. Defined terms
not explicitly defined in this Stock Option Agreement but defined in the Plan
shall have the same definitions as in the Plan.
The details of your option are as follows:
1. VESTING. Subject to the limitations contained herein, your
option will vest as provided in your Grant Notice, provided that vesting will
cease upon the termination of your Continuous Service.
2. NUMBER OF SHARES AND EXERCISE PRICE. The number of shares of
Common Stock subject to your option and your exercise price per share referenced
in your Grant Notice may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization
Adjustments, as provided in the Plan.
3. EXERCISE PRIOR TO VESTING ("EARLY EXERCISE"). If permitted in
your Grant Notice (i.e., the "Exercise Schedule" indicates that "Early Exercise"
of your option is permitted) and subject to the provisions of your option, you
may elect at any time that is both (i) during the period of your Continuous
Service and (ii) during the term of your option, to exercise all or part of your
option, including the nonvested portion of your option; provided, however, that:
(a) a partial exercise of your option shall be deemed to
cover first vested shares of Common Stock and then the earliest vesting
installment of unvested shares of Common Stock;
(b) any shares of Common Stock so purchased from
installments that have not vested as of the date of exercise shall be subject to
the purchase option in favor of the Company as described in the Company's form
of Early Exercise Stock Purchase Agreement; and
(c) you shall enter into the Company's form of Early
Exercise Stock Purchase Agreement with a vesting schedule that will result in
the same vesting as if no early exercise had occurred.
4. ISO EXERCISE LIMITATION.
(a) The aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common
Stock with respect to which you may exercise your option for the first time
during any calendar year, when
1.
<PAGE> 2
added to the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject
to any other options designated as Incentive Stock Options and granted to you
under any stock option plan of the Company or an Affiliate prior to the Date of
Grant with respect to which such options are exercisable for the first time
during the same calendar year, shall not exceed $100,000 (the "ISO Exercise
Limitation") unless applicable law requires that your option be exercisable
sooner.(1)
(b) The ISO Exercise Limitation shall terminate, and you may
fully exercise your option, as to all shares of Common Stock subject to your
option for which your option would have been exercisable in the absence of the
ISO Exercise Limitation upon the earlier of the following events:
(i) the date of termination of your Continuous
Service,
(ii) the day immediately prior to the effective date
of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) in which your option is not
assumed or substituted for as provided in the Plan, or
(iii) the day that is ten (10) days prior to the
Expiration Date of your option.
Upon such termination of the ISO Exercise Limitation, your option shall be
deemed a Nonstatutory Stock Option to the extent of the number of shares of
Common Stock subject to your option that would otherwise then exceed the ISO
Exercise Limitation.
5. METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the exercise price is due in full
upon exercise of all or any part of your option. You may elect to make payment
of the exercise price in cash or by check or in any other manner PERMITTED BY
YOUR GRANT NOTICE, which may include one or more of the following:
(a) In the Company's sole discretion at the time your option
is exercised and provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, pursuant to a
program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board
that, prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the receipt of
cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay
the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.
(b) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock
is publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, by delivery
of already-owned shares of Common Stock either that you have held for the period
required to avoid a charge to the Company's reported earnings (generally six
months) or that you did not acquire, directly or
- --------
(1) For purposes of this provision, your options designated as Incentive Stock
Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted to
you, and the Fair Market Value of shares of Common Stock shall be determined as
of the time the option with respect to such shares of Common Stock is granted.
If Section 422 of the Code is amended to provide for a different limitation from
that set forth in this provision, the ISO Exercise Limitation shall be deemed
amended effective as of the date required or permitted by such amendment to the
Code.
2.
<PAGE> 3
indirectly from the Company, that are owned free and clear of any liens, claims,
encumbrances or security interests, and that are valued at Fair Market Value on
the date of exercise. "Delivery" for these purposes, in the sole discretion of
the Company at the time you exercise your option, shall include delivery to the
Company of your attestation of ownership of such shares of Common Stock in a
form approved by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not
exercise your option by tender to the Company of Common Stock to the extent such
tender would violate the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement
restricting the redemption of the Company's stock.
6. WHOLE SHARES. You may exercise your option only for whole shares
of Common Stock.
7. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, you may not exercise your option unless the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such exercise are then registered under the
Securities Act or, if such shares of Common Stock are not then so registered,
the Company has determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise of your option
must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing your
option, and you may not exercise your option if the Company determines that such
exercise would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.
8. TERM. The term of your option commences on the Date of Grant and
expires upon the EARLIEST of the following:
(a) immediately upon the termination of your Continuous
Service for Cause;
(b) three (3) months after the termination of your
Continuous Service for any reason other than Cause, Disability or death,
provided that if during any part of such three- (3-) month period you may not
exercise your option solely because of the condition set forth in the preceding
paragraph relating to "Securities Law Compliance," your option shall not expire
until the earlier of the Expiration Date or until it shall have been exercisable
for an aggregate period of three (3) months after the termination of your
Continuous Service;
(c) twelve (12) months after the termination of your
Continuous Service due to your Disability;
(d) twelve (12) months after your death if you die either
during your Continuous Service or within three (3) months after your Continuous
Service terminates for reason other than Cause;
(e) the Expiration Date indicated in your Grant Notice; or
(f) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Date of Grant.
If your option is an incentive stock option, note that, to obtain the federal
income tax advantages associated with an "incentive stock option," the Code
requires that at all times
3.
<PAGE> 4
beginning on the date of grant of your option and ending on the day three (3)
months before the date of your option's exercise, you must be an employee of the
Company or an Affiliate, except in the event of your death or Disability. The
Company has provided for extended exercisability of your option under certain
circumstances for your benefit but cannot guarantee that your option will
necessarily be treated as an "incentive stock option" if you continue to provide
services to the Company or an Affiliate as a Consultant or Director after your
employment terminates or if you otherwise exercise your option more than three
(3) months after the date your employment terminates.
9. EXERCISE.
(a) You may exercise the vested portion of your option (and
the unvested portion of your option if your Grant Notice so permits) during its
term by delivering a Notice of Exercise (in a form designated by the Company)
together with the exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to such
other person as the Company may designate, during regular business hours,
together with such additional documents as the Company may then require.
(b) By exercising your option you agree that, as a condition
to any exercise of your option, the Company may require you to enter into an
arrangement providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax
withholding obligation of the Company arising by reason of (1) the exercise of
your option, (2) the lapse of any substantial risk of forfeiture to which the
shares of Common Stock are subject at the time of exercise, or (3) the
disposition of shares of Common Stock acquired upon such exercise.
(c) If your option is an incentive stock option, by
exercising your option you agree that you will notify the Company in writing
within fifteen (15) days after the date of any disposition of any of the shares
of the Common Stock issued upon exercise of your option that occurs within two
(2) years after the date of your option grant or within one (1) year after such
shares of Common Stock are transferred upon exercise of your option.
(d) By exercising your option you agree that the Company (or
a representative of the underwriter(s)) may, in connection with the first
underwritten registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under
the Securities Act, require that you not sell, dispose of, transfer, make any
short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging
or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any shares of
Common Stock or other securities of the Company held by you, for a period of
time specified by the underwriter(s) (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180)
days) following the effective date of the registration statement of the Company
filed under the Securities Act. You further agree to execute and deliver such
other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company and/or the
underwriter(s) that are consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary to
give further effect thereto. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the
Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to your shares of
Common Stock until the end of such period.
10. TRANSFERABILITY. Your option is not transferable, except by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during your life
only by you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the
Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company,
4.
<PAGE> 5
you may designate a third party who, in the event of your death, shall
thereafter be entitled to exercise your option.
11. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Shares of Common Stock that you acquire
upon exercise of your option are subject to any right of first refusal that may
be described in the Company's bylaws in effect at such time the Company elects
to exercise its right. The Company's right of first refusal shall expire on the
Listing Date.
12. RIGHT OF REPURCHASE. To the extent provided in the Company's
bylaws as amended from time to time, the Company shall have the right to
repurchase all or any part of the shares of Common Stock you acquire pursuant to
the exercise of your option.
13. OPTION NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. Your option is not an employment
or service contract, and nothing in your option shall be deemed to create in any
way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ of the
Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your
employment. In addition, nothing in your option shall obligate the Company or an
Affiliate, their respective shareholders, Boards of Directors, Officers or
Employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a Director or
Consultant for the Company or an Affiliate.
14. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.
(a) At the time you exercise your option, in whole or in
part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby
authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you, and
otherwise agree to make adequate provision for (including by means of a
"cashless exercise" pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as
promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the
Company), any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax
withholding obligations of the Company or an Affiliate, if any, which arise in
connection with your option.
(b) Upon your request and subject to approval by the
Company, in its sole discretion, and compliance with any applicable conditions
or restrictions of law, the Company may withhold from fully vested shares of
Common Stock otherwise issuable to you upon the exercise of your option a number
of whole shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value, determined by the
Company as of the date of exercise, not in excess of the minimum amount of tax
required to be withheld by law. If the date of determination of any tax
withholding obligation is deferred to a date later than the date of exercise of
your option, share withholding pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not be
permitted unless you make a proper and timely election under Section 83(b) of
the Code, covering the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock acquired upon
such exercise with respect to which such determination is otherwise deferred, to
accelerate the determination of such tax withholding obligation to the date of
exercise of your option. Notwithstanding the filing of such election, shares of
Common Stock shall be withheld solely from fully vested shares of Common Stock
determined as of the date of exercise of your option that are otherwise issuable
to you upon such exercise. Any adverse consequences to you arising in connection
with such share withholding procedure shall be your sole responsibility.

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON
OFFICE LEASE
THIS LEASE, made this June 11, 1998 between: UNION SQUARE LIMITED
PARTNERSHIP, a Washington Limited Partnership, (Lessor) and INTERNAP NETWORK
SERVICES, INC., a Washington corporation (Lessee).
Lessee, in consideration of this Lease, covenants and agrees with Lessor
as follows:
1. BASIC LEASE INFORMATION
1.1 Leased Premises. Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, Room(s) 1001-1037
(the Leased Premises) as outlined in red on the attached print marked Exhibit A
in the Building at Seattle, Washington, known as Two Union Square (the
Building), and situated on the real property described in Section 4 (the Land).
1.2 Floor Areas. For purposes of this Lease, the usable area of the
Leased Premises is deemed to be 19,225 square feet. The rentable area of the
Leased Premises is deemed to be 20,675 square feet. The Leased Premises are
deemed to be 1.96132 percent of the rentable area of the Building. In the event
a portion of the Building is damaged or any other event or change occurs which
alters the usable or rentable areas of the Leased Premises or the Building,
Lessor may appropriately adjust the foregoing areas and percent. Usable and
rentable areas shall mean such areas as defined generally by the Building
Owners and Managers Association International in its "Standard Method for
Measuring Floor Area in Office Buildings" (American National Standard ANSIZ
65.1-1996). Whenever areas are herein referred to generally, it shall mean
rentable area. Lessee has undertaken such examination of rentable and usable
areas of the Building as it desires and agrees with the areas set forth above.
1.3 Term. The lease term shall be five (5) years, commencing August 15,
1998, and ending August 14, 2003, subject to Lessee's rights in Section 27.
1.4 Rent. The Base Monthly Rent, payable without demand in advance on the
first day of each calendar month, shall be:
$46,088.00 commencing Sept. 15, 1998 and ending August 31, 2000.
$48,242.00 commencing Sept., 1, 2000 and ending August 14, 2003.
<PAGE> 3
1.5 Base Indices
Consumer Price Index for September 1998.
Cost of electricity per kilowatt-hour (average) for 12 months ending
September 30, 1998.
Janitorial hourly labor rate as of September 30, 1998.
Operating Cost Adjustment Base: $6.87 per sq. ft., per yr.
The first rent adjustment pursuant to Section 3 will be January 1,
2000.
1.6 Use. The Leased Premises shall be used only for the purposes of a
business office.
1.7 Lessee's Address for Notices if Other Than the Leased Premises:
1.8 Lessor's Address for Notices and Payment of Rent:
UNICO Properties, Inc.
Rainier Tower
1301 5th Avenue, Suite 3500
Seattle, WA 98101-2647
1.9 Exhibits and Other Attachments Which are Part of the Lease:
Exhibit A: Print with Leased Premises outlined in red on standard
floor plan.
Exhibit B: Initial Improvement of Leased Premises.
Exhibit C: Janitorial Service.
1.10 Security Deposit: $46,088.00
2. RENT PAYMENT
Lessee shall pay the Base Monthly Rent and other charges provided for in
this Lease, in lawful money of the United States on or before their specified
due dates to Lessor at the address specified in Section 1.8, or to such other
party or at such other place as Lessor may hereafter from time to time
designate in writing. All rent which is five (5) days past due shall bear
interest at the rate of one percent (1%) per month from the date rent is due
until paid. If the maximum annual rate of interest permitted by applicable law
shall be less than the rate of interest provided
2
<PAGE> 4
for herein, then all past due payments of rent shall bear interest at the
maximum rate permitted by applicable law from due date until paid. Lessee
acknowledges that late payment by Lessee to Lessor of rent will cause Lessor to
incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs
being extremely difficult and economically impractical to ascertain. Therefore,
if any payment of rent due from Lessee is not received by Lessor within 10 days
after the due date, Lessee shall pay to Lessor (in addition to the interest
above provided) a late charge of Fifty Dollars ($50). The parties agree that
this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that
Lessor will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee and is in addition to any
interest charges on past due rent. The term "rent" when used in this Lease
shall include Base Monthly Rent and all other amounts however designated
payable by Lessee to Lessor hereunder.
3. ANNUAL RENT ADJUSTMENT (OPERATING EXPENSES)
3.1 A portion of the initial rental rate shall be adjusted January 1 of
each year during the term of this Lease commencing 2000. Three separate
indicators, each to be factored separately by one-third of the Operating Cost
Adjustment Base, are used to provide a reasonably broad base to determine the
amount of such adjustment. These indicators are the Consumer Price Index, the
cost of electricity and janitorial hourly labor rate.
3.2 The base indices for the Consumer Price Index, the cost of
electricity and janitorial hourly labor rate, shall be as stated in Section
1.5. Succeeding indices for each of these indices will be calculated annually
thereafter, using the succeeding data for the month of September, 12-month
period ending September 30, and September 30, respectively. The ratio that each
succeeding index bears to its base index shall be reduced by 1.00 and
multiplied by one-third of the Operating Cost Adjustment Base, and by the
rentable area of the Leased Premises. Each January 1, commencing the calendar
year specified in Section 1.5, the Base Monthly Rent otherwise provided for in
this Lease shall be increased by 1/12th the sum of the amounts so determined.
In no event shall the Base Monthly Rent be decreased.
3.3 The Consumer Price Index to be used shall be the Consumer Price Index
for all urban consumers, U.S. city average, all items, series 1982-84 equals
100 (as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Statistics). If
this index is revised or changed (as, for example, by taking the average index
for different years as the base figure of 100), the base index shall be
adjusted accordingly. If this index is discontinued, the index promulgated by
the Department of Labor, which most closely approximates the above-referenced
index, shall be used and the base index shall be adjusted accordingly.
3.4 The cost of electricity to be used shall be the average cost to
Lessor per kilowatt-hour of electricity consumed in the Building for the
12-month periods ending the September 30 specified in Section 1.5 and each
September 30 thereafter.
3.5 The janitorial hourly labor rate to be used shall be the hourly
compensation paid to persons employed as janitors in the Building, including
all applicable taxes and fringe benefits payable by employers.

4. REAL PROPERTY DESCRIPTION AND TAXES
4.1 The legal description of the Land is:
Commencing at the most southwesterly corner of Lot 12, of Block 61,
Addition to Town of Seattle (commonly known as A.A. Denny's Fifth Addition
to City of Seattle), according to plat recorded in Volume 1 of Plats, page
89, in King County, Washington; thence north 30 degrees 37'08" west along
the westerly line of said block 119.84 feet, to the true point of
beginning; thence north 59 degrees 20'00" east 105.15 feet; thence north
30 degrees 40'32" west 38.89 feet; thence north 59 degrees 23'00" east
14.80 feet; thence north 30 degrees 37'00" west 0.55 feet; thence north 59
degrees 20'14" east 135.80 feet to the easterly line of said block; thence
south 30 degrees 35'43" east 116.45 feet to the westerly margin of
Interstate No. 5; thence north 59 degrees 24'17" east 33.00 feet to the
centerline of vacated Seventh Avenue; thence north 30 degrees 35'43" west
along said centerline 311.89 feet to the southerly margin of Union Street
as created by City of Seattle Ordinance No. 18188; thence south 59 degrees
22'04" west along said southerly margin 288.79 feet to the easterly margin
of Sixth Avenue; thence south 30 degrees 37'08" east 234.99 feet to the
true point of beginning; and Lots 1, 4, 5 and 8 in Block 64, of said
addition except the portions thereof condemned under King County Superior
Court Cause Nos. 62589, 570519 and 566654; together with portion of
vacated alley and Seventh Avenue lying adjacent to and abutting thereon as
provided by Ordinance Nos. 107299 and 111138, respectively, of the City of
Seattle, and portion of vacated alley conveyed to Lessor by deed recorded
under King County Receiving No. 8010090702.
4.2 Lessor shall pay all real property taxes and assessments which may
be levied against the Building and the Land. If the amount of such real property
taxes and assessment installments payable in any calendar year during the lease
term exceeds the amount thereof payable during the calendar year the lease term
commences, then on April 1 and October 1 of each such year, Lessee shall pay
Lessor an amount equal to one-half of such excess multiplied by the percentage
in Section 1.2. Upon Lessee's request, Lessor shall furnish copies of the real
property tax statement for the year in which the additional payment is requested
and the year the lease term commenced.
The foregoing charges constitute additional rent, which shall be deemed to
accrue uniformly during the calendar year in which the payment is due. Payment
under the provisions of this Section for the year the lease term ends shall be
prorated, based on reasonable projections of the increase through the
termination of this Lease and shall be due thirty (30) days before such
termination.
5. POSSESSION
5.1 In the event of the inability of Lessor to deliver possession of the
Leased Premises or any portion thereof, at the time of the commencement of the
term of this Lease, Lessor shall not be liable for any damage caused thereby,
nor shall this Lease thereby become void or voidable. Lessee shall not be liable
for payment of any rent until such time as Lessor can deliver possession,
4
<PAGE> 6
except as may be otherwise provided in an Exhibit to this Lease. If Lessor
shall deliver possession of the Leased Premises to Lessee prior to the
commencement date of this Lease and Lessee agrees to accept the same at such
time, both Lessor and Lessee agree to be bound by all provisions and
obligations of this Lease during the period of occupancy prior to commencement,
including the payment of rent at the same monthly rate, prorated for the prior
period.
5.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor will proceed diligently and in
good faith to complete all of the tenant improvement work as outlined in
Section 30 and Exhibit B and to deliver the Leased Premises to Lessee in a
substantially completed condition on August 15, 1998 subject to delays caused
by Lessee or its agents; strikes or labor disputes; material shortages; fire or
other casualty; acts of God or other causes beyond Lessor's control for which
rent shall not commence until substantial completion of the tenant improvement
work. In the event of a delay caused by Lessee, the substantial completion date
shall be extended by the number of days of said delay. However, rent shall
commence on August 15, 1998 if such delay is caused by Lessee. In the event
Lessor is unable to deliver the Leased Premises to Lessee by October 1, 1998
(and said delay was not caused by Lessee), then Lessee, upon thirty (30) days
prior notice may cancel the Lease on the date specified in such notice, unless
the Lease Premises are substantially completed by said date.
6. ACCEPTANCE AND CARE OF PREMISES
6.1 Taking of possession of the Leased Premises by Lessee shall be
conclusive evidence the Leased Premises were, on that date, in good, clean and
tenantable condition, except for latent defects and punch list items not yet
completed.
6.2 Lessee shall keep the Leased Premises neat and clean and in a
sanitary condition and shall at all times preserve them in as good condition
and repair as they now are, or may hereafter be put into, reasonable use and
wear and damage by fire or other unavoidable casualty excepted. All damage or
injury done to the Leased Premises by Lessee or by any persons who may be in or
upon the Leased Premises with the consent of Lessee, including the cracking or
breaking of glass of any windows and doors, shall be paid for by Lessee and
Lessee shall pay for all damage to the Building caused by Lessee's misuse of
the Leased Premises or the appurtenances thereto. Lessee shall not put
any curtains, draperies or other hangings on or beside the windows in the
Leased Premises without first obtaining Lessor's consent. If Lessee shall fail
to keep and preserve the Leased Premises in said condition and state of repair
Lessor may at its option put or cause the same to be put into the condition and
state of repair agreed upon, and in such case Lessee, on demand, shall pay the
cost thereof.
7. ALTERATIONS
Lessee shall design the Tenant Work so they will comply with then
applicable laws at the commencement of the lease term. Lessee shall not make
any alterations, additions or improvements in or to the Leased Premises, or
make changes to locks on doors, or add, disturb or in any way change any
plumbing or wiring therein, without the prior written consent of Lessor, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Lessor may require that any such work be
performed
5
<PAGE> 7
by Lessor's employees or contractor(s) employed by Lessor. Lessor, at its
option, may at its own expense make any repairs, alterations or improvements
which Lessor may deem necessary or advisable for the preservation, safety or
improvement of the Leased Premises or the Building, provided only that Lessee
shall at all times have reasonable access and use of the Leased Premises.
Lessee shall, at its own expense, make any alterations, additions or
improvements to the Leased Premises, which are required by law during the term
of this Lease. Lessor's approval concerning the initial improvement or any
subsequent alteration, addition or improvement of the Leased Premises is for
Lessor's benefit only and shall not create any responsibility or liability on
the part of Lessor for design sufficiency or compliance with applicable laws.
8. INSPECTION AND REPAIRS
Lessor shall have the right with reasonable notice, except in emergencies
to inspect the Leased Premises at all reasonable times and the right to enter
the same for the purpose of cleaning, repairing, altering or improving the
same, or the Building, but nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed
so as to impose any obligation on Lessor to make any repairs, alterations or
improvements except as expressly provided in Section 9.
9. SERVICES BY LESSOR
Lessor will, at its expense, provided Lessee is not in default, furnish
Lessee with the following services and utilities:
(a) Elevator service during normal business hours of the Building (8:00
a.m. to 6:00 p.m. -- Monday through Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. --
Saturday, except legal holidays generally observed in the State of Washington)
and the service of at least one elevator during all other hours.
(b) Heating and air cooling to maintain a temperature condition which in
Lessor's reasonable judgment provides for comfortable occupancy of the Leased
Premises during normal business hours of the Building, under normal business
operations, provided Lessee complies with Lessor's instructions regarding use
of drapes and thermostats and Lessee does not utilize heat generating machines
or equipment other than normal office equipment in normal quantities, such as
Desktop PC's, printers, and fax machines, which affect the temperature
otherwise maintained by the air cooling system. Upon request Lessor shall make
available at Lessee's expense after hours heat or air cooling. The minimum use
of after hours heat or air cooling and the cost thereof shall be determined by
Lessor and confirmed in writing to Lessee, as the same may change from time to
time. In addition to any and all other rights and remedies which Lessor may
invoke for a violation or breach of this Lease, Lessor may discontinue said
heating and air cooling service without any abatement of rent whatsoever.
(c) Water for drinking, lavatory and toilet purposes.
(d) Electricity for building standard lighting and operation of low power
usage office machines in quantities usually furnished by Lessor to tenants in
the Building for general office use.
6
<PAGE> 8
Low power usage machines are typewriters, desk top calculators, desk top
computer terminals and similar equipment with similar power requirements which
operate on 110 volt circuits.
(e) Janitorial service and window washing. This service includes vacuum
cleaning of carpets and cleaning of Building standard vinyl composition tile,
but no other services with respect to carpets or non-standard floor coverings.
Shampoo or similar cleaning of carpets and repair and replacement of carpets
shall be Lessee's responsibility and at Lessee's expense.
(f) Maintain the exterior window blinds or draperies, windows, doors,
floors, walls, ceilings, plumbing and plumbing fixtures, and electrical
distribution system and lighting fixtures in good condition and repair, except
for damage caused by Lessee, its employees, agents, invitees or visitors, and
except that such service will not be provided as to any of the foregoing items
that are not standard for the Building. Lessor shall maintain, repair, replace
and keep in a first-class condition comparable to other first-class or Class A
office buildings in the downtown Seattle, Washington area, the Common Areas
(including, without limitation, the lobbies, elevators, stairs, parking areas,
grounds, loading areas and corridors), the roofs, foundations, load-bearing
elements, conduits and structural walls and other structural elements of the
Building, the underground utility and sewer pipes of the Building, all base
building mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC system, access control system
and the sprinkler system and other fire and life-safety systems, as well as
window blinds and draperies. All repairs and maintenance required of Lessor
pursuant to this Section or elsewhere in the Lease shall be performed in
accordance with standards applicable to comparable first-class office buildings
in the downtown Seattle, Washington area, and performed in a timely and diligent
fashion. Lessor agrees to diligently attend to any routine repairs or
maintenance needs brought to its attention by Lessee as soon as reasonably
practicable. Lessor shall coordinate all maintenance and repair work with
respect to the Leased Premises with Lessee and shall perform the same in a
manner to minimize to the extend possible any disruption of Lessee's business
activities.
(g) Replacement of burned out fluorescent tubes in light fixtures which
are standard for the Building. Burned out bulbs, tubes or other light sources
in fixtures which are not standard for the Building will be replaced by Lessor
at Lessee's expense.
9.2 Lessor shall use reasonable diligence to remedy an interruption in
the furnishing of such services and utilities. If, however, any governmental
authority imposes regulations, controls or other restrictions upon Lessor or
the Building which would require a change in the services provided by Lessor
under this Lease, Lessor may comply with such regulations, controls or other
restrictions, including without limitation, curtailment, rationing or
restrictions on the use of electricity or any other form of energy serving the
Leased Premises. Lessee will cooperate and do such things as are reasonably
necessary to enable Lessor to comply with such regulations, controls or other
restrictions.
9.3 Whenever heat generating machines or equipment other than low power
usage machines, or lighting other than building standard lights are used in the
Leased Premises by Lessee which affect the temperature otherwise maintained by
the air cooling system, Lessor shall have the right to install supplementary
air cooling units in the Leased Premises, and the cost
7
<PAGE> 9
thereof, including the cost of installation and the cost of operation and
maintenance thereof, shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor upon billing by Lessor.
Lessor may impose a reasonable charge for utilities and services, including
without limitation, air cooling, electric current and water, required to be
provided the Leased Premises by reason of, (a) any substantial recurrent use of
the Leased Premises at any time other than the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.,
Monday through Friday, (b) any use beyond what Lessor agrees to furnish as
described above, (c) electricity used by equipment designated by Lessor as
high power usage equipment or (d) the installation, maintenance, repair,
replacement or operation of supplementary air cooling equipment, additional
electrical systems or other equipment required by reason of special electrical,
heating, cooling or ventilating requirements of equipment used by Lessee at the
Leased Premises. High power usage equipment includes without limitation, data
processing machines, punch card machines, computers and machines which operate
on 220 volt circuits. Lessee shall not install or operate high power usage
equipment on the Leased Premises without Lessor's prior written consent, which
may be refused unless Lessee confirms in writing its obligation to pay the
additional charges necessitated by such equipment. At Lessor's option, separate
meters for such utilities and services may be installed for the Leased Premises
and Lessee upon demand therefor, shall immediately pay Lessor for the
installation, maintenance, repair and replacement of such meters.
9.4 Lessor does not warrant that any of the services and utilities
referred to above will be free from interruption. Interruption of services and
utilities shall not be deemed an eviction or disturbance of Lessee's use and
possession of the Leased Premises or any part thereof or render Lessor liable
to Lessee for damages, or relieve Lessee from performance of Lessee's
obligations under this Lease. In the event there is an interruption in heating,
cooling, electricity, water or elevator services to the Leased Premises which
materially disrupts Lessee's ability to conduct business within the Leased
Premises and such interruption was not caused by Lessee, Lessor shall
diligently pursue the remedy of such interruption and in the event said
interruption is in excess of five (5) days and is not caused by Lessee, then on
the sixth (6th) day following such interruption, all rent shall be abated until
such services are restored. In the event such interruption cannot be remedied
within thirty (30) days of such interruption and such interruption was not
caused by Lessee, then, upon five (5) days written notice to Lessor, Lessee may
cancel the Lease unless within such five (5) day period Lessor remedies the
interruption.
10. FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY
In the event the Building or the Leased Premises shall be destroyed or
rendered untenantable, either wholly or in part, by fire or other casualty,
Lessor may, at its option, restore the Building or Leased Premises to as near
their previous condition as is reasonably possible, and in the meantime the
rent shall be abated in the same proportion as the untenantable portion of the
Leased Premises bears to the whole thereof; but unless Lessor, within sixty
(60) days after the happening of any such casualty, shall notify Lessee of its
election to so restore, this Lease shall thereupon terminate and end. Such
restoration by Lessor shall not include replacement of furniture, equipment or
other items that do not become part of the Building or any improvements to the
Leased Premises in excess of those provided for in the allowance for building
standard items.

<PAGE> 10
11. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION
Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Lessor and Lessee
each hereby waives any and all claims against the other, its agents, officers,
directors, shareholders or employees, for loss or damage to the Leased Premises
or the Building, or any personal property of such party therein, that is caused
by or results from fire and other perils insured against under (a) the normal
fire with extended coverage property insurance policies, or (b) the standard
business interruption insurance policies, carried by the parties and in force
at the time of damage or loss. Each party shall cause each such insurance policy
obtained by it to provide that the insurance company waives all right to
recovery by way of subrogation against the other party in connection with any
such damage or loss.
12. USES
The Leased Premises are to be used only for the uses specified in Section
1.6 hereof, and for no other business or purpose without the prior written
consent of Lessor. Lessee shall comply with all applicable laws, ordinances,
rules and regulations in its use and occupancy of the Leased Premises,
including those related to the use and disposal of hazardous substances and
materials, and shall indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from any loss or damage
resulting therefrom. Lessee shall not allow anything to be done in the Leased
Premises which will increase the existing rate of insurance on the Building,
and will immediately reimburse Lessor for any such resulting increase. Lessee
shall not commit or allow to be committed any waste upon the Leased Premises,
or any public or private nuisance or other act or thing which disturbs the
quiet enjoyment of any other tenant in the Building. Lessee shall not, without
the prior written consent of Lessor, use any apparatus, machinery or device in
or about the Leased Premises which will cause any substantial noise or
vibration. If any of Lessee's office machines and equipment should disturb the
quiet enjoyment of any other tenant in the Building, then Lessee shall provide
adequate insulation, or take such other action as may be necessary to eliminate
the disturbance. Lessee shall comply with all laws relating to its use of the
Leased Premises.
13. SIGNS AND ADVERTISING
Except for Lessee's signage in the elevator lobby of the 10th floor, or in
its reception area, Lessee shall not inscribe any inscription or post, place,
or in any manner display any sign, notice, picture, placard or poster, or any
advertising matter whatsoever, anywhere in or about the Leased Premises or the
Building at places visible (either directly or indirectly as an outline or
shadow on a glass pane) from anywhere outside the Leased Premises without first
obtaining Lessor's written consent thereto. Any such consent by Lessor shall be
upon the understanding and condition that Lessee will remove the same at the
expiration or sooner termination of this Lease and Lessee shall pay Lessor the
cost to repair any damage to the Leased Premises or the Building caused
thereby. Lessor shall have the right to prohibit any advertising by Lessee
which, in its opinion, tends to impair the reputation of the Building as a
first-class shopping, business or professional area.

<PAGE> 11
14. ACCIDENTS AND INDEMNITY
14.1 Lessee shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from
all loss, damage, liability or expense, including attorneys' fees, resulting
from any injury to any person or any loss of or damage to any property caused
by or resulting from any act, omission or negligence of Lessee or any officer,
employee, agent, contractor, invitee, or visitor of Lessee in or about the
Leased Premises or the Building, but the foregoing provision shall not be
construed to make Lessee responsible for loss, damage, liability or expense
resulting from injuries to third parties caused by any act, omission or
negligence of Lessor, or of any officer, employee, agent, contractor, invitee
or visitor of Lessor. Lessor shall not be liable for any loss or damage to
person or property sustained by Lessee, or other persons, which may be caused by
the Building or the Leased Premises, or any appurtenances thereto, being out of
repair, or by the bursting or leakage of any water, gas, sewer or steam pipe,
or by theft, or by any act of neglect of any tenant or occupant of the
Building, or of any other person, or by any other cause of whatsoever nature
except for Lessor's gross negligence.
14.2 Subject to the provisions of Section 11 above, Lessor shall protect,
defend, indemnify and hold Lessee harmless from all loss, damage, liability or
expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting from any injury to any
person or any loss of or damage to any property caused by or resulting from any
act, omission or gross negligence of Lessor or any officer, employee, agent,
contractor, customers or visitors of Lessor in the Building, but the foregoing
provision shall not be construed to make Lessor responsible for loss, damage,
liability or expense resulting from injuries to third parties caused by an act,
omission or negligence of Lessee, or of any officer, employee, agent,
contractor, customers or visitors of Lessee.
14.3 Liability Insurance. Lessee shall, throughout the term of this Lease
and any renewal hereof, at its own expense, keep and maintain in full force and
effect, a policy of commercial general liability insurance including a
contractural liability endorsement covering Lessee's obligations under this
Lease, insuring Lessee's activities upon, in or about the Leased Premises or
the Building against claims of bodily injury or death or property damage or
loss with a limit of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) combined
single limit.
14.4 Property Insurance. Lessee shall, throughout the term of this Lease
and any renewal hereof, at its own expense, keep and maintain in full force and
effect, what is commonly referred to as "all risk" coverage insurance (but
excluding earthquake and flood) on Lessee's leasehold improvements and personal
property and equipment in the Leased Premises in an amount not less than the
current One Hundred Percent (100%) replacement value thereof.
14.5 Insurance Policy Requirements. All insurance under this Section 14
shall be with companies satisfactory to Lessor and authorized to do business in
Washington, and Lessor shall be named as an additional insured on all such
policies of Lessee. No insurance policy required hereunder shall be cancelled
or reduced in coverage and each insurance policy shall provide that it is not
subject to cancellation or a reduction in coverage except after thirty (30)
days prior written notice to Lessor. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor prior to
commencement of the lease term and from time to time thereafter, copies of
policies of such insurance or certificates evidencing the
10
<PAGE> 12
existence and amounts of same and naming Lessor as an additional insured
thereunder. In no event shall the limits of any insurance policy required
hereunder be considered as limiting the liability of Lessee under this Lease.
15. LIENS AND INSOLVENCY
Lessee shall keep the Leased Premises and the Building free from any liens
arising out of any work performed, materials ordered or obligations incurred by
Lessee. If Lessee becomes insolvent, voluntarily or involuntarily bankrupt, or
if a receiver, or assignee or other liquidating officer is appointed for the
business of Lessee, then Lessor, at its option, may immediately or any time
thereafter terminate Lessee's right of possession under this Lease.
16. DEFAULT AND RE-ENTRY
Lessee covenants as a material part of the consideration for this Lease
to keep and perform each and all of said terms, covenants and conditions by
Lessee to be kept and performed and that this Lease is made upon the condition
of such performance. Except for a default under the preceding Section 15 for
which immediate right of termination is given to Lessor, if Lessee fails to pay
any installment of rent within three (3) days after written notice, or to
perform any other covenant under this Lease within thirty (30) days after
written notice from Lessor stating the nature of the default, Lessor may
terminate this Lease and re-enter and take possession of the Leased Premises
using such force as may be necessary; provided that if the nature of such
default other than for non-payment of rent is such that the same cannot
reasonably be cured within such thirty-day period, Lessee shall not be deemed to
be in default if Lessee shall within such period commence such cure and
thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion. If Lessor elects to
terminate this Lease, Lessor may declare all rent owing for the remainder of the
Term immediately due and payable, less the amount Lessee proves could reasonably
be collected during such period. Notwithstanding such retaking of possession by
Lessor and/or termination of this Lease, Lessee's liability for the rent
provided herein shall not be extinguished for the balance of the term of this
Lease, and Lessee shall make good to Lessor any deficiency arising from a
reletting of the Leased Premises at a lesser rental, plus the reasonable costs
and expenses of renovating or altering the Leased Premises and the reasonable
costs and expenses of reletting the Leased Premises, including but not limited
to, lease commissions, tenant improvements, etc. Lessee shall pay any such
deficiency each month as the amount thereof is ascertained by Lessor. If Lessor
retakes possession, Lessor shall have the right to let any other available space
in the Building before reletting or attempting to relet the Leased Premises, and
such action shall not relieve Lessee of any of its obligations hereunder. All
remedies provided herein are cumulative and are in addition to those provided by
law.
17. REMOVAL OF PROPERTY AND REPLACEMENT OF NON-STANDARD ITEMS
Upon the expiration or termination of the lease term, Lessee shall at its
expense remove Lessee's goods and effects and those of all persons claiming
under Lessee. Lessee shall also be required to remove all data and
telecommunications cabling installed for use by Lessee in or
11
<PAGE> 13
around the Leased Premises (including Building telecommunication closets and
risers). Any property left in the Leased Premises after the expiration or
termination of the lease term shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the
property of Lessor to dispose of as Lessor deems expedient at Lessee's expense.
18. NON-WAIVER
Failure of Lessor to insist, in any one or more instances, upon strict
performance of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, or to exercise
any option herein contained, shall not be construed as a waiver, or a
relinquishment for the future, of such term, covenant, condition or option, but
the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect. The receipt by
Lessor of rents with knowledge of a breach of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of this Lease to be kept or performed by Lessee shall not be deemed
a waiver of such breach, and Lessor shall not be deemed to have waived any
provision of this Lease unless expressed in writing and signed by Lessor.
19. COSTS AND ATTORNEYS' FEES
To the extent permitted by law, in any action or proceeding brought by
either party against the other under this Lease, the substantially prevailing
party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its actual professional
fees (such as appraisers', accountants' and attorneys' fees), investigation
costs, and other legal expenses and court costs incurred by the prevailing
party in such action or proceeding, in such amounts as the presiding court
deems reasonable.
20. PRIORITY
Lessee agrees that this Lease shall be subordinate to any first mortgages
or deeds of trust that may hereafter be placed upon the Leased Premises or the
Building containing the same, and to any and all advances to be made
thereunder, and to the interest thereon, and all renewals, replacement and
extensions thereof provided that such mortgagee agrees not to disturb Lessee's
possession of the Leased Premises (except in the event of a default by Lessee
beyond applicable cure periods). Within fifteen (15) days after written request
from Lessor, Lessee shall execute any documents that may be reasonably
necessary or desirable to effectuate the subordination of this Lease to any
such mortgages or deeds of trust and shall execute estoppel certificates as
requested by Lessor from time to time in the standard form of any such
mortgagee or beneficiary.
21. CONDEMNATION
If all of the Leased Premises or such portions of the Building as may be
required for the reasonable use of the Leased Premises, are taken by eminent
domain, this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the date Lessee is
required to vacate the Leased Premises and all rent shall be paid to that date.
In case of a taking of a part of the Leased Premises, or a portion of the
Building not required for the reasonable use of the Leased Premises, then this
Lease shall continue in full force and effect and the rent shall be equitably
reduced based on the proportion by which the floor area of the Leased Premises
is reduced, such rent reduction to be effective as of
12
<PAGE> 14
the date possession of such portion is delivered to the condemning authority.
Lessor reserves all rights to damages to the Leased Premises for any taking by
eminent domain, and Lessee hereby assigns to Lessor any right Lessee may have
to such damages or award, and Lessee shall make no claim against Lessor for
damages for termination of the leasehold interest or interference with Lessee's
business. Lessee shall have the right, however, to claim and recover from the
condemning authority compensation for any loss to which Lessee may be put for
Lessee's moving expenses and for the interruption of or damage to Lessee's
business, provided, that such damages may be claimed only if they are awarded
separately in the eminent domain proceeding and not as part of the damages
recoverable by Lessor.
22. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
22.1 Lessee shall not, without the prior written consent of Lessor which
shall not be unreasonably withheld, assign this Lease or any interest therein,
or sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use of the
Leased Premises by any party other than Lessee or mortgage or otherwise
transfer this Lease (collectively "transfer"). Such consent shall be entirely
discretionary with Lessor, except as otherwise provided in Section 22.5.
Consent to one such transfer shall not destroy or waive this provision, and all
subsequent transfers shall likewise be made only upon obtaining prior written
consent of Lessor. Sublessees or assignees shall become directly liable to
Lessor for all obligations of Lessee hereunder, without relieving Lessee of any
liability.
22.2 If Lessee wishes to assign this Lease or sublet the Leased Premises
or any part thereof, Lessee shall first given written notice ("Lessee's Notice")
to Lessor of its intention to do so, which notice shall contain the name of the
proposed assignee or subtenant (collectively "transferee"), the nature of the
proposed transferee's business to be carried on in the Leased Premises and the
terms and provisions of the proposed assignment or sublease. Lessee shall also
provide Lessor with a copy of the proposed assignment or sublease when it is
available and such financial and other information with respect to the proposed
transferee and transfer that Lessor may reasonably require.
At any time within thirty (30) days after Lessor's receipt of Lessee's
Notice, Lessor may by written notice ("Lessor's Notice") to Lessee elect to,
(a) recapture the affected space by terminating this Lease as to the portion of
the Leased Premises covered by the proposed sublease or assignment effective
upon a date specified in Lessor's Notice, which date shall not be earlier than
thirty (30) days nor later than sixty (60) days after Lessor's Notice, with a
proportionate reduction of all rights and obligations of Lessee hereunder that
are based on the area of the Leased Premises, (b) consent to the proposed
sublease or assignment, or (c) disapprove the proposed sublease or assignment.
If Lessor's Notice states Lessor elects to exercise the recapture option
described above, Lessee shall have the option for a period of ten (10) days
after receipt of Lessor's Notice, by written notice to Lessor within such
period, to withdraw Lessee's Notice of proposed transfer and not proceed with
the proposed sublease or assignment.
22.3 Whether or not Lessor consents to a proposed transfer, Lessee shall
reimburse Lessor on demand for any and all reasonable costs that may be
incurred by Lessor in connection
13
<PAGE> 15
with any proposed transfer including, without limitation, the reasonable cost
of investigating the acceptability of the proposed transferee and attorneys'
fees incurred in connection with each proposed transfer not to exceed Five
Hundred and 00/100 dollars ($500.00) per occurrence.
22.4 If Lessor consents to any proposed assignment or sublease, (a)
Lessee may enter into same, but only upon the specific terms and conditions set
forth in Lessee's Notice, (b) any sublease or assignment shall be subject to,
and in full compliance with, all of the terms and provisions of this Lease, (c)
the consent by Lessor to any assignment of sublease shall not relieve Lessee of
any obligation under this Lease, (d) each transferee shall assume all
obligations of Lessee under this Lease and shall be and remain jointly and
severally liable with Lessee for the payment of rent, and the performance of
all of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on
Lessee's part to be performed, (e) no assignment shall be binding on Lessor
unless Lessee and the transferee shall deliver to Lessor a counterpart of the
assignment that contains a covenant of assumption by the transferee
satisfactory to Lessor and is otherwise satisfactory in form and substance to
Lessor, and (f) any rent or other consideration accruing to Lessee as the result
of such assignment of sublease which is in excess of the rent then being paid
by Lessee for the portion of the Leased Premises affected by the assignment or
sublease, shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor monthly as additional rent.
22.5 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a proposed
assignment or sublease, if Lessor does not exercise its option to recapture
under Section 22.3, then Lessor will not unreasonably withhold its consent
thereto if (a) Lessee is not then in default hereunder, (b) the proposed
transferee will continuously occupy and use the Leased Premises for the term of
the transfer, (c) the use by the proposed transferee will be a business office
consistent in quality to and otherwise compatible with the other tenants in the
Building, (d) the proposed transferee is reputable and of sound financial
condition, and (e) the use by the proposed transferee will not violate any
rights of exclusivity granted to other tenants or any other restrictions on use
to which Lessor is subject.
22.6 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, so long as
such transfer is not effectuated as part of a transaction or series of
transfers orchestrated in order to effect a transfer of this Lease (or Lessee's
interest herein) in isolation to Lessee's other leasehold interests and assets,
Lessor's written consent shall not be required for any sublease, assignment or
other transfer of this Lease to any other entity which (i) controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with Lessee, or (ii) is controlled by
Lessee's parent company, or (iii) which purchases all or substantially all of
the assets of Lessee, or (iv) which purchases all or substantially all of the
stock of Lessee, provided, however, that in such event Lessee shall continue to
remain fully liable under the Lease on a joint and several basis with the
assignee or acquiror of such assets or stock. Lessee shall be required to give
Lessor at least thirty (30) days written notice in advance of any such sublease
or assignment, except with respect to transfers by operation of law occasioned
through a sale of publicly traded shares in Lessee. Sales of publicly traded
stock in Lessee shall not constitute a transfer for purposes of this Lease.
22.7 Any option(s) granted to Lessee in this Lease or any option(s)
granted to Lessee in any amendments to this Lease, to the extent that said
option(s) have not been exercised, shall
14
<PAGE> 16
terminate and be voided in the event this Lease or any portion thereof is
assigned, or any part of the Leased Premises are sublet, or all or any portion
of Lessee's interest in the Leased Premises are otherwise transferred.
22.8 Lessor understands that Lessee desires to sublease a portion of the
Leased Premises and therefore not withstanding anything contrary contained
herein, Lessee shall have the rights to sublease the space set forth in Exhibit
D attached hereto during the Lease Term without Lessor's right to recapture as
set forth in Section 22.2(a).
23. RULES, REGULATIONS AND MISCELLANEOUS
23.1 Lessee shall use the Leased Premises and the public areas in the
Building in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may from
time to time be adopted by Lessor for the general safety, care and cleanliness
of the Leased Premises or the Building, and the preservation of good order
therein, and shall cause Lessee's employees, agents, invitees and visitors to
abide by such rules and regulations; provided that such rules and regulations
do not unreasonably interfere with the Lessee's use of the Leased Premises and
Building.
23.2 Lessee shall not place any boxes, cartons, or other rubbish in the
corridors or other public areas of the Building.
23.3 Lessor does not guarantee the continued present status of light or
air over any premises adjoining or in the vicinity of the Building. Any
diminution or shutting off of light, air or view by any structure which may be
erected on lands near or adjacent to the Building shall in no way affect this
Lease or impose any liability on Lessor.
23.4 Lessee shall conserve heat, air-conditioning, water and electricity
and shall use due care in the use of the Leased Premises and of the public
areas in the Building, and without qualifying the foregoing, shall not neglect
or misuse water fixtures, electric lights and heating and air-conditioning
apparatus.
23.5 Lessor shall not other than during normal business hours admit to the
Leased Premises the Lessee or any of the Lessee's agents or employees or other
persons claiming the right of admittance.
23.6 Lessee shall peaceably and quietly enjoy the Leased Premises so long
as it pays the rent payable by it hereunder and is not in default in performing
all the provisions of this Lease.
23.7 The titles to sections of this Lease are for convenience only and
shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part
thereof. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State of Washington.
23.8 All notices under this Lease shall be in writing and delivered in
person or sent by registered or certified mail to Lessor at the same place rent
payments are made, and to Lessee at the Leased Premises, or such addresses as
may hereafter be designated by either party in writing.
15
<PAGE> 17
Notices mailed as aforesaid shall be deemed given on the date of actual receipt
or rejection of the notice.
23.9 The rent herein is exclusive of any sales, business and occupation,
gross receipts or other tax based on rents or tax upon this Lease or tax upon
or measured by the number of employees of Lessee or the area of the Leased
Premises or any similar tax or charge. If any such tax or charge be hereafter
enacted, Lessee shall reimburse to Lessor the amount thereof together with each
Base Monthly Rent payment. If it shall not be lawful for Lessee so to reimburse
Lessor, the Base Monthly Rent payable to Lessor under this Lease shall be
revised to net Lessor the same net rental after imposition of any such tax or
charge upon Lessor as would have been payable to Lessor prior to the imposition
of such tax or charge. Lessee shall not be liable to reimburse Lessor for any
federal income tax.
23.10 Lessee shall not place any plants, sculptures or other items so as
to be located wholly or partially in the public corridor portions of the
Building without Lessor's prior written approval.
23.11 All improvements, alterations or additions which may be made by
either of the parties hereto upon the Leased Premises, except movable office
furnishings, shall become part of the Building when made, and shall remain upon
and be surrendered with the Leased Premises as a part thereof. The maintenance
and care of such improvements shall be the responsibility of Lessee, except as
otherwise provided in Section 9. For example, Lessor shall vacuum, but Lessee
shall shampoo, repair and replace carpets. Wall paneling, partitions, closets,
built-in cabinets, sinks, doors, however attached, floor coverings and other
built-in units of all kinds are a partial listing of improvements that become
property of Lessor as aforesaid. Wall hung office furniture, refrigerator/sink
units and other electrical appliances may be removed by Lessee provided the
reasonably estimated amount to cap plumbing and repair screw holes or other
damage is paid by Lessee to Lessor prior to such removal and such removal does
not cause any material damage to the property.
23.12 The freight elevator shall not be used by Lessee or others to move
furniture, supplies or other items to or from the Leased Premises unless Lessee
prior to such use has scheduled and coordinated such use with Lessor's Service
Department. Lessee shall not permit passenger elevators to be used to move
furniture, supplies or other items to or from the Lease Premises. Lessee shall
cause its suppliers and other providers to comply with the foregoing provisions.
23.13 The name of the Building may at any time be changed by Lessor.
23.14 This Lease is the final and complete expression of the parties'
agreement and no representations, promises or agreements, oral or otherwise,
between the parties not embodied herein shall be of any force and effect.
Neither this Lease nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged
or terminated orally, but only by instrument in writing executed by Lessor and
Lessee.
16
<PAGE> 18
23.15 UNICO Properties, Inc. (UNICO) is Lessor's manager and rental agent
in all matters concerning this Lease and the Leased Premises, and the Lessee,
until notified in writing to the contrary by either the Lessor or UNICO or the
Assignee of Lessor's interest under this Lease, shall recognize such agency and
pay all rental, furnish all statements, and give any notice which the Lessee
may be under the duty of giving hereunder, or may elect to give hereunder, to
UNICO at its office in the City of Seattle, King County, Washington, instead of
to the Lessor. As long as such agency shall exist, the rights and options
extended to Lessor shall be deemed extended to UNICO, and each and every other
term and provision of this Lease which is in any way beneficial to the Lessor,
including especially every stipulation against liability, or limiting
liability, shall inure to the benefit of UNICO and its agents and shall be
applicable to UNICO and its agents in the same manner and as fully and with the
same effect as to Lessor. Whenever Lessor's consent is required, Lessee shall
request such consent from UNICO. The consent of UNICO shall be deemed the
consent of UNICO and Lessor.
23.16 Lessee agrees to look only to the equity of Lessor in the Building
and the Land and not to Lessor personally with respect to any obligations or
payments due or which may become due from lessor hereunder, and no other
property or assets of Lessor or any partner, joint venturer, member, officer,
director, shareholder, agent, or employee of Lessor, disclosed or undisclosed,
shall be subject for the satisfaction of Lessee's claims under or with respect
to this Lease, and no partner, member, officer, director, agent or employee of
Lessor shall be personally liable in any manner or to any extent in connection
with this Lease. If at any time the holder of Lessor's interests hereunder is a
partnership, limited liability company or joint venture, a deficit in the
capital account of any partner, member or joint venturer shall not be
considered an asset of such partnership, limited liability company or joint
venture. In the event of a sale or conveyance by Lessor of the Building, the
same shall operate to release Lessor from any and all obligations and
liabilities on the part of Lessor accruing from and after the effective date of
the sale or conveyance as long as the Transferee receives the entire security
deposit and expressly assumes all future obligations of Lessor hereunder.
23.17 Broker Commission Lessee shall defend, indemnify and hold Lessor
harmless from all claims and liabilities or expenses arising from agreements or
other arrangements made by or on behalf of Lessee with any brokers, finders or
other persons, except for a commission of Three and 50/100 dollars ($3.50) per
rentable square feet, which will be paid to Grubb & Ellis by Lessor, one-half
upon signing of the Lease and one-half upon the occupancy of the Leased
Premises by Lessee.
23.19 Security Deposit Lessee has deposited the sum specified in Section
1.10 with Lessor. Lessor shall pay the remaining balance thereof to Lessee,
inclusive of one-half of the interest accrued, within thirty (30) days after
the expiration or prior termination of the lease term, or any extension
thereof, if Lessee has fully performed all of its obligations under this Lease.
Lessor may withdraw from the deposit the amount of any unpaid rent or
additional rent or other charges not paid to Lessee when due, and Lessee shall
immediately redeposit an amount equal to that so withdrawn.
17
<PAGE> 19
23.20 Holdover If Lessee remains in possession of all or part of the
Leased Premises after the expiration of the term of this Lease, with or without
Lessor's written consent, for each month or partial month of such possession,
Lessee shall pay Lessor an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent of the
Base Monthly Rent payable hereunder immediately prior to the expiration of the
term. Such holdover by Lessee shall not be deemed an extension of the term or
the grant by Lessor to Lessee of a month to month tenancy. Lessee shall also
indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from all loss, cost, liability and expense
incurred by Lessor if Lessee remains in such possession of all or part of the
Leased Premises without Lessor's prior written consent.
23.21 Recording Neither Lessor nor Lessee shall record this Lease or any
memorandum thereof.
23.22 Directory Board Lessor shall, throughout the term of this Lease,
maintain a directory board in the main lobby of the Building which shall list
Lessee, and up to ten (10) of Lessee's employees. The cost of said designations
shall be at Lessor's expense for the initial ten (10) designations and at
Lessee's expense thereafter.
23.23 Authority Each individual executing this Lease on behalf of Lessee
represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute and
deliver this Lease on behalf of Lessee and that this Lease is binding on Lessee
in accordance with its terms.
24. SUCCESSORS
All the covenants, agreements, terms and conditions contained in this
Lease shall apply to and be binding upon Lessor and Lessee and their respective
heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
25. SHARED TENANT SERVICES
Lessee acknowledges that any provision of telecommunications and office
automation services and equipment ("Shared Tenant Services") by a third party
provider, including but not limited to Shared Technologies Inc., its agents,
affiliates and successors (collectively the "Provider") is entirely separate
and distinct from this Lease agreement and that Lessor has no duty of
performance concerning the provision of Shared Tenant Services. Lessee hereby
agrees to look solely to the provider for any failure in the provision of
Shared Tenant Services.
26. AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT (ADA) COMPLIANCE
Lessor and Lessee acknowledge that, in accordance with the provisions of
the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA"), responsibility for compliance
with the terms and conditions of Title III of the ADA may be allocated as
between Lessor and Lessee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
the Lease, Lessor and Lessee agree that the responsibility for compliance with
the ADA (including, without limitation, the removal of architectural and
communications barriers and the provision of auxiliary aids and services to the
extent required) shall be allocated as follows: (i) Lessee shall be responsible
for compliance with the provisions of
18
<PAGE> 20
Title III of the ADA for any construction, renovations, alterations and repairs
made within the Leased Premises if such construction, renovations, alterations
and repairs are made by Lessee, at its expense without the assistance of the
Lessor; (ii) Lessee shall be responsible for compliance with the provisions of
Title III of the ADA for all construction, renovations, alterations and repairs
Lessor makes within the Leased Premises, whether at Lessor's or Lessee's
expense; and (iii) Lessor shall be responsible for compliance with the
provisions of Title III of the ADA for all exterior and interior areas of the
Building including the elevator lobby and restrooms located on the 10th floor
not included within the Leased Premises. Lessor agrees to indemnify and hold
Lessee harmless from and against any claims, damages, costs and liabilities
arising out of Lessor's failure, or alleged failure, as the case may be, to
comply with Title III of the ADA, which indemnification obligation shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. Lessee agrees to indemnify
and hold Lessor harmless from and against any claims, damages, costs and
liabilities arising out of Lessee's failure, or alleged failure, as the case
may be, to comply with Title III of the ADA, which indemnification obligation
shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. Lessor and Lessee
each agree that the allocation of responsibility for ADA compliance shall not
require Lessor or Lessee to supervise, monitor or otherwise review the
compliance activities of the other with respect to its assumed responsibilities
for ADA compliance as set forth in this Section. The allocation of
responsibility for ADA compliance between Lessor and Lessee, and the
obligations of Lessor and Lessee established by such allocations, shall
supersede any other provisions of the Lease that may contradict or otherwise
differ from the requirements of this Section.
27. OPTION TO EXTEND
27.1 Lessee may extend the term of this lease for one (1) additional
term(s) of five (5) years provided Lessee fully satisfies the conditions
hereafter stated. If so extended, this lease shall continue as though the
extended term were part of the original term except the base monthly rent
pursuant to Section 1.4 shall be the Market Rate for like space in like
buildings.
Lessee's right to extend the lease as above stated is subject to the following
conditions:
(a) Lessee shall give lessor six (6) months prior written notice pursuant
to this section of the Lease. Lessor shall, within thirty (30) days
thereafter, provide notification of the proposed rental rate for the
extended term.
(b) Lessee shall not be in default under the Lease when said notice is
given.
(c) This Lease shall be in full force and effect when said notice is
given.
(d) Lessee shall have confirmed in writing Lessee's obligation to pay the
base monthly rent required by Lessor for the extended term within
thirty (30) days of notification by Lessor of said rental rate.
(e) Upon receipt of Lessee's acknowledgement, Lessor shall prepare an
amendment modifying the lease.
19
<PAGE> 21
MARKET RATE
27.2 As used in this lease, the term "Market Rate" at any point in time
shall mean the annual rate of base monthly rent per rentable square foot being
quoted by owners to renewing tenants (and being accepted by such renewing
tenants) at such points in time
(i) for space in the Building and for space in other office buildings in
the downtown Seattle Central Business District that are comparable
to the Building in age, class and quality, which space is comparable
in size, location, configuration, view (to the extent relevant) and
degree of existing leasehold improvements paid for by Lessor in the
space in the Building to be leased by Lessee with respect to which
such rate is to apply; and
(ii) for a lease term of substantially the same duration and commencement
date as the Extended Term.
For purposes of this lease, Market Rate (determined without reduction for
concessions) shall not be reduced by reason of any concessions which are related
to costs that would be incurred if Lessee were then first moving into the Leased
Premises instead of renewing its existing lease. For example, Market Rate shall
not be reduced for concessions related to leasehold improvements to the extent
such concessions would be used to improve the leased space (virgin or otherwise)
for tenant improvements then in place in the leased premises, for broker fees,
or for other costs or concessions typically incurred by landlords for new
tenants but not for renewal tenants. Market Rate (determined without reduction
for concessions) may be reduced by reason of concessions then being granted to
renewing tenants such as rent abatements or refurbishment allowances, with the
amount of such concessions spread over the full term of the extended term.
Should Lessee not agree with Lessor's quoted rate it shall provide said
rejection in writing to Lessor and Lessor and Lessee shall attempt to agree on a
single arbitrator within fifteen (15) days thereafter as described below and
subject to the rights granted to Lessor under Section 27 outlined herein.
27.3 Should Lessor and Lessee be unable to agree on the base monthly rent
for the extended term within thirty (30) days of notification from Lessor of
the rental rate, and if Lessor does not elect within fifteen (15) days
thereafter to have the Market Rate determined by arbitration, then Lessee may
rescind its exercise of this option to extend by written notice to Lessor
within thirty (30) days thereafter. Should Lessor elect within fifteen (15)
days thereafter to have Market Rate determined by arbitration, Lessee may
within three (3) days of such election rescind its option to extend. Such
arbitration shall be before one (1) disinterested and experienced arbitrator if
one can be agreed upon, otherwise before three (3) disinterested and
experienced arbitrators, one named by Lessor, one by Lessee, and one by the
two thus chosen; provided, that if said two arbitrators cannot agree upon a
third arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after they have been named, then a
third arbitrator shall be appointed by the presiding judge of the King County
Washington Superior Court upon motion of either Lessor or Lessee. A
"disinterested and experienced arbitrator" shall be a person (a) who shall not
have a direct or indirect financial interest in the decisions to be made by
the arbitrator(s); (b) who shall not be an officer, director, employee, or
agent of Lessor or Lessee, and (c) who shall have at least five (5) years
20
<PAGE> 22
professional or business experience in the Seattle market with respect to the
management and leasing of commercial real estate as a property manager, broker
or other capacity. The arbitrator(s) shall determine the Market Rate for the
extended term. Except as may be otherwise provided in this Lease, the
arbitrator(s) shall conduct the arbitration proceedings in accordance with the
then currently published rules of the American Arbitration Association
applicable to commercial arbitration's. Except as may be otherwise provided in
this lease, the arbitrator(s) designated and acting under this lease shall make
his or their award in strict conformity with such rules and shall have no power
to depart from or change any of the provisions thereof. All arbitration's
proceedings hereunder shall be conducted in Seattle, Washington. The
appointment or arbitrators shall be signified in writing by each party to the
other. If Lessor or Lessee shall fail to so appoint an arbitrator for a period
of fifteen (15) days after written notice from the other party to make such
appointment, then the arbitrator appointed by the party not in default
hereunder shall appoint a second arbitrator, and the two so appointed shall
appoint a third arbitrator. The arbitrator(s), after being duly sworn to
perform his or their duties with impartiality and fidelity shall proceed to
determine the Market Rate for the extended term. The arbitration hearing shall
be conducted and the decision of the arbitrator(s) shall be rendered within
sixty (60) days after their appointment, and such decision shall be in writing
and in duplicate, one counterpart thereof to be delivered to each of the
parties hereto. The decision of the arbitrator(s) shall be binding, final and
conclusive on the parties. Fees of the arbitrator(s) and the expenses incident
to the proceeding shall be borne equally between Lessor and Lessee if a single
arbitrator is used. If three arbitrators are used, each party shall pay the fees
and costs of the arbitrator selected by it and the parties shall share equally
in the fees and costs of the third arbitrator. Fees of the respective counsel
engaged by the parties, and fees of expert witnesses or other witnesses called
by parties shall be paid by the respective party engaging such counsel or
calling or engaging such witness.
28. FIRST RIGHT TO LEASE
Lessee shall have the first right to lease as additional space any
available vacant space on the 9th and 11th floors, subject to rights
previously granted to existing tenants (the FRL Space). If Lessor desires to
lease the space in question to a third party or take it off the market for any
reason whatsoever, Lessor shall notify Lessee of its intent along with the
economic terms by which Lessee may acquire the FRL space. Lessee shall have ten
(10) days after receipt of each such notice to advise Lessor in writing whether
or not it will add additional space to the leased premises. Failure to do so
shall be deemed an election not to add any FRL Space. If Lessee does not elect
to add any FRL space, then Lessor may lease the FRL Space in question to a
third party or take it off the market for any reason whatsoever. Lessee's right
under this Section 28 shall apply at any time that Lessor desires to lease the
space in question to a third party or to take the space off the market during
the Lease term. When FRL Space has been added to the leased premises, Lessee
shall pay base monthly rent and additional rent under Section 3 and 4 for the
added space under market terms and conditions. Within three (3) days after
receipt of Lessee's election or notice to lease FRL Space, Lessor will give
Lessee written notice of the base monthly rent required for the additional
space in a form which may be signed by Lessee confirming Lessee's obligation to
pay said base monthly rent for the FRL Space added to the leased premises. Upon
the execution of a lease for the additional space, Lessor and Lessee shall
diligently commence and pursue the completion of tenant improvement drawings for
the additional space so that the tenant improvement work can be priced and
commenced within forty-five (45) days after Lessee exercises the option to
acquire additional space.
21
<PAGE> 23

given.
(c) Prior to occupancy of the FRL Space, Lessee shall have confirmed in
writing Lessee's obligation to pay the base monthly rent for the FRL
Space.
(d) This lease has not been assigned or all or part of the leased
premises sublet, except as permitted under Section 22.6.
(e) Subject to rights granted to third parties, prior to the execution of
the Lease.
29. PARKING
Lessor shall make available ten (10) monthly parking permits three (3) of
which must be designated carpool parking, which will be located in the Union

period of one year. If any subcontractor warranty extends beyond one (1) year,
Lessee shall benefit by such warranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at
Lessor's election some or all of the Tenant Work may be (a) priced and
subcontracts with respect thereto awarded on the basis of unit price
arrangements or similar arrangements negotiated by Lessor's contractor with
respect to such work in the Building, or (b) performed by Lessor or an affiliate
or agent of Lessor provided the price is not above market for similar work and
which is subject to Lessee's reasonable approval. Any other subcontract work
will be competitively bid. Subcontract work which is to be competitively bid
shall be submitted to at least three (3) subcontractors selected and approved by
Lessor, Lessee and Lessor's contractor and may be
8
<PAGE> 36
bid independently or together with similar work for other tenants in the
Building. Such subcontractors shall only employ and use union labor in and about
the Building and Land. After they have been completed, the Final Contract
Documents shall be promptly submitted to such subcontractors for bids. Bids will
be reviewed by Lessor, Lessee and Lessor's contractor and subcontracts awarded
as they mutually agree. The bidding process shall be "open book", in which,
prior to commencing work and awarding any subcontracts, Lessor's contractor
shall submit a list of detailed prices (itemized to set forth all pertinent
information with respect to each bid, such as profit, overhead, general
conditions, contingencies, etc.) for Lessee's approval sufficient to allow for
Lessee's review and comment and subsequent modification. If the price of Tenant
Work exceeds the allowance in Section 3 of this Exhibit, Lessee may in such
authorization delete any or all items of extra cost; provided however, if
Lessor, acting reasonably, deems these changes to be extensive, Lessor may
refuse to accept the authorization to proceed until all changes have been
incorporated in revised Final Contract Documents signed by Lessee, approved and
signed by Lessor, priced by Lessor, and written acceptance of the revised
price has been received by Lessor from Lessee. In the absence of written
authorization to proceed, Lessor shall not be obligated to commence work on the
Leased Premises.
5.2 Payments. Lessor's contractor shall complete the improvements to the
Leased Premises (Tenant Work) in accordance with the approved Final Contract
Documents. Lessor shall pay for the cost of Tenant Work up to the amount of the
allowance described in Section 3. Lessor shall submit monthly progress billings
to Lessee for costs which exceed or are not included in said allowance, which
shall be payable within ten (10) days after receipt. Final billing shall be
rendered and payable within ten (10) days after acceptance of the Leased
Premises by Lessee in accordance with the terms of the Lease.
5.3 Final Plans and Modifications. If Lessee shall request any change
from the approved Final Contract Documents, Lessee shall request such change in
writing to Lessor and such request shall be accompanied by all plans and
specifications necessary to show and explain changes from the approved Final
Contract Documents. After receiving this information, Lessor shall give Lessee
a written price for the cost to incorporate the changes in Lessee's Final
Contract Documents. If Lessee approves such price in writing, Lessor shall have
such Final Contract Documents changes made and the cost thereof shall be a
charge to Tenant Work. Within a reasonable time after completion of such
changes in the Final Contract Documents, Lessor shall obtain and notify Lessee
in writing of the construction cost, if any, which shall be chargeable or
credited to Lessee as a result of such change. The cost for such change,
whether chargeable or credited to Lessee shall include a Lessor coordination
fee equal to five percent (5%) of the amount of such change. Lessee shall
within five (5) days notify Lessor in writing to proceed with such change.
In the absence of such notice, Lessor shall proceed in accordance with the
previously approved Final Contract Documents before such change was requested.
Tenant shall also be responsible for any demolition work required as a result
of the change.
5.4 Lessee's Entry to Leased Premises. Lessee's entry to the Leased
Premises for any purpose prior to commencement of the lease term shall be

approval.
5.6 Commencement of Lease Term. The lease term shall not commence until
Lessor has substantially completed all work to be performed by Lessor under the
provisions of this Exhibit, except for the completion or correction of items on
the Architect's punch list. If Lessor shall be delayed, however, in
substantially completing said work as a result of:
(i) Lessee's failure to provide sufficient information to Lessor's
Architect to allow timely delivery of the plans and specifications
identified in Section 4.2 of this Exhibit; or
(ii) Lessee's failure to approve plans and specifications and price by
the dates or within the time periods required by the lease (including this
Exhibit); or

MONTH TO MONTH LEASE
THIS LEASE, made this 8th day of September, 1998, between
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES, INC. (LESSOR)
AND
CONTINENTAL, INC. (LESSEE)
Lessee, in consideration of this lease, covenants and agrees with Lessor as
follows:
Lessee hereby rents from Lessor, Rooms 1001 (the Premises) in the Two Union
Square Building (the Building), Seattle, King County, Washington, as a
month-to-month tenant commencing the 8th day of September, 1998.
Lessee shall pay Lessor monthly rent without demand and in advance, on the
first day of each calendar month as follows: $1,397.50.
The area of the Premises is deemed to be 1,200 usable square feet,
approximately 1,290 rentable square feet as shown on the attached Exhibit "A".
The term shall be from the Commencement Date until 11:59 p.m. on December 31,
1998. Thereafter the Lease is month to month. The rental period hereunder is a
calendar month. If this rental agreement commences on other than the first day
of a calendar month, the rental for that calendar month shall be prorated. All
rent which is past due shall bear interest at the rate of one percent per month
from the date rent is due until paid. If the maximum annual rate of interest
permitted by applicable law shall be less than the rate of interest provided for
herein, then all past due payments of rent shall bear interest at the maximum
rate permitted by applicable law from due date until paid. Lessee acknowledges
that late payment by Lessee to Lessor of rent will cause Lessor to incur costs
not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely
difficult and economically impractical to ascertain. Therefore, if any payment
of rent due from Lessee is not received by Lessor within ten (10) days after the
due date, Lessee shall pay to Lessor (in addition to the interest above
provided) a late charge of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) or two percent (2%) of the
overdue rent, whichever shall be greater. The parties agree that this late
charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Lessor will
incur by reason of late payment by Lessee and is in addition to any interest
charges on past due rent.
The Premises are to be used for storage of Lessee's office furniture and
equipment.
The Premises have been inspected and are accepted by Lessee in their present
condition and Lessee shall at all times keep the Premises neat, and in a
sanitary condition and except for reasonable wear and tear and damage by fire
or other unavoidable casualty shall at all times preserve the Premises in as
good repair as they now are.
Lessee shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements in or to the
Premises or add, disturb or in any way change any plumbing or wiring therein,
without the prior written consent of Lessor.
Lessee shall provide and install, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, a demising
wall then access door to the Premises as shall be mutually agreed between the
parties. Lessee shall also remove the demising wall and door at the termination
of the Lease at Lessee's sole cost and expense.
<PAGE> 43
Lessee shall defend and hold Lessor harmless from all loss, damage, liability or
expense resulting from any injury to any person or any loss of or damage to any
property caused by or resulting from any act or omission of Lessee or any agent,
employee, invitee, or visitor of Lessee in or about the Premises of the
Building. Lessor shall not be liable for any injury, loss or damage to person or
property sustained by lessee, or other persons, which may be caused by the
building or the Premises, or any appurtenances thereto, being out of repair, or
by the bursting or leakage of any water, gas, sewer or steam pipe, or by theft,
or by any act of neglect of any tenant or occupant of the Building, or of any
other person, or by any other cause of whatsoever nature unless due to Lessor's
gross negligence.
Lessee agrees to exercise reasonable care in and around the Premises so as not
to damage common areas, walls, floors, etc.
Lessor shall furnish heat, light to the extent that such services are provided
by the Building but shall not be liable in damages or otherwise should these
services be interrupted by fire, accident, strike, riot, the making of
necessary repairs or improvements, or any other cause whatsoever.
After December 31, 1998 this tenancy may be terminated at any time by twenty
(20) days prior written notice by Lessor or thirty (30) days prior written
notice by Lessee preceding the end of the monthly rental period as provided by
law, or as otherwise provided by law.
In the event of litigation between the parties hereto declaratory or otherwise,
for the enforcement of any of the covenants, terms and conditions of this
agreement, the losing party shall pay the costs thereof and reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred by the prevailing party, which shall be determined and
taxed by the Court as part of the costs of such action.
Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Lessor and Lessee each
hereby waives any and all claims against the other, its agents, officers,
directors, shareholders or employees, for loss or damage to the leased Premises
or the Building, or any personal property of such party therein, that is caused
by or results from fire and other perils insured against under (a) the normal
fire with extended coverage insurance policies, or (b) the standard business
interruption insurance policies, carried by the parties and in force at the
time of damage or loss. Each party shall cause each such insurance policy
obtained by it to provide that the insurance company waives all right to
recovery by way of subrogation against the other party in connection with any
such damage of loss.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this lease has been executed by Lessor and Lessee as of
the day and year first above set forth.

RE: PROPOSED INTERNAP CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE, 9th FLOOR TWO UNION SQUARE
Dear Arne,
I recently spoke with Corr Pearce of InterNAP to discuss the upcoming
construction project within the 9th floor of Two Union Square. He confirmed that
Tom Duke will be developing the architectural plans and upon their release would
like three general contractors to bid the project. At that time no date for the
release of the construction documents from Tom Duke had been established.
It is my understanding that the lease commencement date for InterNap will be
July 1. To meet this date I would propose the following schedule. This schedule
is only a guideline, for I cannot determine the scope of work nor the lead-time
for any special materials Tom Duke may propose.

have the right to use. Tenant shall be responsible for
maintaining the systems and preserving their functionality
through out their normal life cycle. Should any of the components
of these systems fail and require replacement, Tenant
shall at its option and its expense, replace necessary
components or restructure the system to eliminate the unwanted
component in a manner approved by the Building Engineer. If

herein, nor shall this Lease become void or voidable, nor shall the Lease
Term be extended, but in such event, no rental shall be payable by Tenant

shall be to cancel the Lease by giving thirty (30) days written notice of
its said election to Owner. If Tenant, with Owner's permission, enters

for each calendar day during such prior period.
7 SERVICES PROVIDED BY OWNER
Owner shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain Premises and the
public and common areas of Building, such as lobbies, stairs, landscaping,

reasonably good order and condition except for damage occasioned by the
act of Tenant.
Owner, at its sole cost, shall furnish Premises from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00

office machines, heat and air conditioning as may be reasonably required
for the occupation of Premises, and shall provide elevator service,
lighting replacement, toilet room supplies, window washing with reasonable
frequency, and daily janitorial service on the basis of a Standard Work
Week during the times and in the manner that such janitorial services are
customarily furnished in general office buildings in the area. Owner
shall not be liable for damages, nor shall the rental herein reserved be
abated, for failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any of the foregoing
services, when such failure or delay is caused by accident or conditions
beyond the control of Owner, or by labor disturbances or labor disputes of
any character, or by inability to secure fuel, supplies, machinery,
equipment or labor after reasonable efforts to do so, or by the making of
improvements or necessary repairs to Premises or Building, nor shall the
temporary failure to furnish any of such services be construed as an
eviction of Tenant or relieve Tenant from the duty of observing and
performing any of the provisions of this Lease.
Tenant acknowledges that the 24-hour nature of its business exceeds the
Standard Work Week described above. Owner shall at Tenant's cost install a
meter in the electrical system supplying Tenant's equipment room, measure
usage and bill Tenant monthly at the same rate, including demand charges,
billed by Seattle City Light plus a monthly billing fee of $10.00.

5
<PAGE> 6
expense. Tenant shall not make changes to locks on doors or add, disturb,
or in any way change any plumbing or wiring without first obtaining
written consent of Owner. All damages or injury done to the Premises by
Tenant, or by any persons who may be in or upon Premises with the consent

provided herein. Tenant shall pay for the replacement of Special
Improvements as provided in Article 23 and the replacement of doors or
windows of Premises which are cracked or broken by Tenant, its employees,
agents, or invitees, and Tenant shall not put any curtains, draperies or
other hangings on or beside the windows in Premises without first
obtaining Owner's consent. Owner agrees that it will repaint the interior
of Premises at least once every five years with a color mutually agreed
upon between Tenant and Owner. Owner may make any alterations or
improvements which Owner may deem necessary for the preservation, safety
or improvement of Premises or Building. All alterations, additions and
improvements, except trade fixtures installed by Tenant and which are
removable without damage to Building, shall become the property of Owner.
Tenant shall, at the termination of this Lease by the expiration of time
or otherwise, surrender and deliver up Premises to Owner in as good
condition as when received by Tenant from Owner, reasonable use and wear
and damage by fire or other casualty excepted.
Should Owner be required to make changes or additions to Building or
Westin Building Garage at any time during the term of this Lease as a
result of any law, rule, code or regulation which becomes effective after
the Commencement Date, the Tenant shall pay on demand by Owner, as
additional rent, a monthly charge equal to the area of Premises as stated
in Article 1(b) divided by 350,000 times 1 and 1/3 percent of the cost of
the change or addition. Such additional rent shall commence upon
substantial completion of each such change or addition and shall continue
to the end of the term of this Lease.
9 ENTRY AND INSPECTION
Tenant will permit Owner and its agents to enter into and upon Premises
at all reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same or for the
purpose of cleaning, repairing, altering or improving Premises or
Building and when reasonably necessary may close entrances, doors,
corridors, elevators or other facilities without liability to Tenant by
reason of such closure and without such action by Owner being construed
as an eviction of Tenant or relieving the Tenant from the duty of
observing and performing any of the provisions of this Lease. Owner shall
have the right to enter Premises for the purpose of showing Premises to
prospective tenants for a period of 180 days prior to the expiration of
the Lease Term.
10 DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
If Premises or Building are damaged by fire, wind, or other such casualty,
the damage shall be repaired by and at the expense of Owner, provided such
repairs (to restore Premises to usable condition) can be made within sixty
(60) days after the occurrence of such damage without the payment of
overtime or other premiums, and until such repairs are completed, the rent
shall be abated in proportion to the part of Premises which is unusable by
Tenant in the conduct of its business (but there shall be no abatement of
rent by reason of any portion of Premises being unusable for a period
equal to one day or less).
If such repairs cannot be made within sixty (60) days, Owner may, at its
option, make them within a reasonable time, and in such event this Lease
shall continue in effect and the rent shall be abated in the manner
provided above. Owner's election to make repairs must be evidenced by
written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of
the damage.
If Owner does not elect to make such repairs that cannot be made within
sixty (60) days, then either party may, by written notice to the other,
terminate this Lease. A total destruction of Building shall automatically
terminate this Lease.
11 ADVERTISING
Tenant shall not inscribe any inscription, post, place, or in any manner
display any sign, notice, picture, placard or poster, or any advertising
matter whatsoever, anywhere in or about Premises or Building at places
visible (either directly or indirectly as an outline or shadow on a glass
pane) from any where outside Premises without first obtaining Owner's
written consent thereto.
12 INDEMNITY, LOSS AND WAIVER OF SUBROGATION
Tenant shall defend and indemnify Owner and save it harmless from and
against any and all liability, damages, costs, or expenses, including
attorneys' fees, arising from any act, omission or negligence of Tenant
or the officers, contractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees,
guests, invitees, or visitors of Tenant in or about Building, or arising
from any accident, injury, or damage, howsoever and by
6
<PAGE> 7
whomsoever caused, to any person or property, occurring in or about
Premises, provided that the foregoing provision shall not be construed to
make Tenant responsible for loss, damage, liability, or expense resulting
from injuries to third parties caused by the negligence of Owner or of any
officer, contractor, licensee, agent, servant, or employee of Owner. Owner
shall not be responsible for providing security and Tenant hereby releases
Owner from any claim for damage or loss of property that may arise as a
result of vandalism or theft in Building or Westin Building Garage. Owner
and Tenant each release the other from responsibility for, and waive their
entire claim of recovery for (i) any loss or damage to the real or personal
property of either located anywhere in Building and Westin Building Garage,
arising out of or incident to the occurrence of any of the perils which may
be covered by a fire and lightning insurance policy, with extended coverage
endorsement in common use in the Seattle locality or (ii) loss resulting
from business interruption at Premises or loss of rental income from
Building, arising out of or incident to the occurrence of any of the perils
that may be covered by a business interruption insurance policy and by the
loss of rental income insurance policy in common use in the Seattle
locality. To the extent that such risks under (i) and (ii) are in fact
covered by insurance, each party shall cause its insurance carriers to
consent to such waiver and to waive all rights of subrogation against the
other party.
13 LIENS AND INSOLVENCY
Tenant shall keep Premises and Building free from any liens or encumbrances
arising out of any work performed by Tenant, materials furnished by Tenant,
or obligations incurred by Tenant. Owner may terminate this Lease by giving
Tenant notice of its election to do so, if; (i) Tenant files a voluntary
petition in bankruptcy, or for reorganization under the bankruptcy laws, or
is adjudged a bankrupt by a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) if
Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if a receiver
is appointed for Tenant's business, or (iii) any other action is taken by
or against Tenant under any State or Federal insolvency or bankruptcy act.
No interest in this Lease or estate hereby created in favor of Tenant shall
pass by operation of law under any such bankruptcy or insolvency act to any
person whomsoever without the prior express written consent of Owner. Any
purported transfer in violation of this Article shall constitute a default
by Tenant.
14 DEFAULT AND RE-ENTRY
Except for a default under the preceding paragraph for which immediate
right of termination is given to Owner, if Tenant fails to pay any
installment of rent when due (plus interest on past due amounts at the
maximum legal rate from the date due) after 3 days written notice, or to
perform any other covenant under this Lease within thirty (30) days after
written notice from Owner stating the nature of the default, Owner may
re-enter and take possession of Premises using all reasonable force to do
so; provided, however, that if the nature of such default other than for
non-payment of rent is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within
such thirty-day period, Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if
Tenant shall within such period commence such cure and thereafter
diligently prosecute the same to completion. Notwithstanding such retaking
of possession by Owner, Tenant's liability for the rent provided herein
shall not be extinguished for the balance of the term of this Lease. Upon
such re-entry, Owner may elect either (i) to terminate this Lease, in which
event Tenant shall immediately pay to Owner a sum equal to that by which
the then cash value of the total rent reserved under this Lease for the
balance of the Lease Term exceeds the reasonable rental value of the
Premises for the balance of the Lease Term plus costs incident to releasing
the Premises including, but not limited to remodeling expenses, attorney's
fees and real estate commissions; or (ii) without terminating this Lease,
to relet all or any part of the Premises as the agent of and for the
account of Tenant upon such terms and conditions as Owner may deem
advisable, in which event the rents received on such reletting shall be
applied first to the expenses of reletting and collection, including
necessary renovation and alteration of Premises, reasonable attorney's fees
and real estate commissions paid, and thereafter to payment of all sums due
to or to become due Owner hereunder, and if a sufficient sum shall not be
thus realized to pay such sums and other charges, Tenant shall pay Owner
any deficiency monthly, and Owner may bring an action therefor as such
monthly deficiency shall arise.
In the event of any such retaking of possession of Premises by Owner as
herein provided, Tenant shall remove all personal property located thereon
and, upon failure to do so upon demand of Owner, Owner may, in addition to
any other remedies allowed by law, remove and store the same in any such
place selected by Owner, including but not limited to a public warehouse,
at the expense and risk of Tenant. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sums due
hereunder or the cost of storing any such property after it has been stored
for a period of thirty (30) days or more, Owner may sell any or all such
property at public or private sale and shall apply the proceeds of such
sale first, to the cost of such sale; second, to the payment of the charges
for storage, if any; and third, to the payment of any other sums of money
which may be due from Tenant to Owner under the terms of this Lease, and
the balance, if any, to Tenant.
Tenant hereby waives all claims for damages that may be caused by Owner's
lawfully re-entering and taking possession of Premises or lawfully removing and
storing or selling the property of Tenant as herein
7
<PAGE> 8
provided, and will save Owner harmless from loss, costs, or damages
occasioned thereby, and such lawful re-entry shall not be considered or
construed to be a forcible entry.
15 SURRENDER OF POSSESSION
Upon expiration of the term of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or
otherwise, Tenant shall promptly and peacefully surrender Premises to
Owner.
16 COSTS AND ATTORNEYS' FEES
If Tenant or Owner shall bring any action for any relief against the other,
declaratory or otherwise, arising out of this Lease, including any suit by
Owner for the recovery of rent or possession of Premises, the losing party
shall pay the successful party a reasonable sum for attorneys' fees in such
suit, and such attorneys' fees shall be deemed to have accrued on the
commencement of such action.
17 NON-WAIVER
Waiver by Either Party of any breach of any term, covenant or condition
herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant,
or condition, or of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term,
covenant or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of rent
hereunder by Owner shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding
breach by Tenant of any term, covenant, or condition of this Lease, other
than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rental so accepted
regardless of Owner's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of
acceptance of such rent.
18 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublet Premises or any part thereof
without first obtaining Owner's written consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld. No such assignment or subletting shall relieve
Tenant of Tenant's liability under the Lease, except, if at the time of
such assignment or subletting, Tenant establishes to the reasonable
satisfaction of Owner that such assignee or sublessee is of satisfactory
financial responsibility at least equal to that of Tenant and the
Guarantors at the time Tenant executed the Lease. Consent to any such
assignment or subletting shall not operate as a waiver of the necessity for
a consent to any subsequent assignment, and the terms of such consent shall
be binding upon any person holding by, under or through Tenant. In no event
shall a sublessee of Tenant sublet or assign any interest in this Lease.
In the event of an assignment or subletting that requires Owner's time
and/or expense, Tenant shall reasonably compensate Owner for such expenses.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Owner's consent shall not
be required for the following transfers:
a) An assignment, sublease or other transfer of Tenant's interest in the
Lease to any other entity with which Tenant is affiliated or under common
control, provided the Owner is notified not later than ten (10) days after
the effective date of such event;
b) An assignment or transfer of this Lease to any person or entity
acquiring by asset or stock transfer, consolidation, merger, liquidation,
spin-off or reorganization, all or substantially all of the assets of
Tenant; provided, that the assignee or transferee agrees to assume and
perform all obligations of Tenant under this Lease and that immediately
following such acquisition the assignee's or transferees net worth equals
the net worth of Tenant on the date immediately preceding such assignment
or transfer; and provided further that Owner is notified not later than ten
(10) days after the effective date of such event;
c) Any (i) public offering of the stock of Tenant pursuant to the
Securities Act of 1933 and/or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as
amended, or (ii) transfer of stock between shareholders of Tenant, or (iii)
sale of additional shares of
8
<PAGE> 9
stock to individuals or entities currently not shareholders of
Tenant; provided, that immediately following such offering,
transfer or sales the net worth of Tenant equals or exceeds the
net worth of Tenant on the date immediately preceding such
offering, transfer or sale or
d) the mortgage, pledge, hypothecation or encumbrance of any
of the stock of Tenant.
19 SUCCESSORS
All of the covenants, agreements, terms and conditions contained
in this Lease shall apply to and be binding upon Owner and Tenant
and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors
and assigns.
20 TAX ON RENTAL
If any governmental authority or unit under any present or future
law effective at any time during the term of this Lease shall in
any manner levy a tax on rentals payable under this Lease or on
rentals accruing from use of Premises under this Lease, or a tax
in any form against Owner because of or measured by income
derived from the leasing or rental of Premises, the amount of
the next succeeding month's rent following payment of such tax by
Owner shall be increased by an amount equal to such tax paid by
Owner, and for Tenant's default in paying the rent thus revised,
Owner shall have the same remedies as upon failure to pay rent.
Tenant shall not be liable to pay any amount because of income
tax of a general nature applicable to Owner's various interests
or sources of income. In the event that it shall not be lawful
for Tenant to pay such tax, the rental payable to Owner under
this Lease shall be revised to net Owner the same net rental
after imposition of any such tax as would have been payable to
Owner prior to the imposition of any such tax.
21 PRIORITY
This Lease shall automatically be subordinate to any mortgage or
deed of trust heretofore or hereafter placed upon Building, to
any and all advances made or to be made thereunder, to the
interest on the obligations secured thereby, and to all renewals,
replacements and extensions thereof; provided, however, that in
the event of foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed of trust or
exercise of the power of sale thereunder, Tenant shall attorn to
the purchaser of Building at such foreclosure or sale and
recognize such purchaser as Owner under this Lease if so
requested by such purchaser. If any mortgagee or beneficiary
elects to have this Lease superior to its mortgage or deed of
trust and gives notice of its election to Tenant, then this Lease
shall thereupon become superior to the lien of such mortgage or
deed of trust, whether this Lease is dated or recorded before or
after the mortgage or deed of trust. Within fifteen days of
presentation, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge, and deliver to
Owner (i) any reasonable subordination or nondisturbance
agreement or other instrument that Owner may require to carry out
the provisions of this article, and (ii) any reasonable estoppel
certificate requested by Owner from time to time in the standard
form of any such mortgagee or beneficiary certifying in writing,
if such be true, that Tenant shall be in occupancy, that this
Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there
have been modifications, that the same is in full force and
effect as modified and stating the modifications) and the dates
to which the rent and other charges shall have been paid, and
that there shall be no rental offsets or claims.
22 CONDEMNATION
If the whole of Premises, or if such portion of either Premises
or the facilities in Building as may be required for the
reasonable use of Premises, shall be taken by virtue of any
condemnation or notice of condemnation or eminent domain
proceeding, or by purchase in lieu thereof, or for public or
quasipublic use, directly or indirectly, this Lease shall
automatically terminate as of the date of such condemnation, or
purchase in lieu of condemnation, or as of the date possession is
taken by the condemning authority, whichever is earlier. Current
rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination. In
case of a taking of a part of Premises or a portion of the
facilities in Building not required for the reasonable use of
Premises, then this Lease shall continue in full force and effect
and the rental shall be equitably reduced based on the proportion
by which the rentable area of Premises is reduced, such rent
reduction to be effective on the date of such partial taking. No
award of any partial or entire taking shall be apportioned, and
Tenant hereby assigns to Owner any award which may be made in
such taking or condemnation together with any and all rights of
Tenant now or hereafter arising in or to the same or any part
thereof, provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed
to give Owner any interest in, or to require Tenant to assign to
Owner, any award made to Tenant for the taking of personal
property or fixtures belonging to Tenant, for the interruption of
or damage to Tenant's business or for Tenant's moving expenses.

<PAGE> 10
23 SPECIAL IMPROVEMENTS
The term "Special Improvements" as used in this Lease refers to all
improvements to Premises, whether provided at the expense of Owner or
Tenant, other than accoustical ceilings, lighting fixtures, air
conditioning grilles, air ducts and temperature controls, draperies,
corridor and demising partitions, and concrete floor ready for pad and
carpet. Tenant shall reimburse Owner for Owner's necessary expense of
repairing or replacing all Special Improvements to maintain Special
Improvements in first-class condition. Tenant shall pay Owner that certain
sum as set forth in Article 1(f) as payment for certain of Special
Improvements made to Premises. In addition, Tenant shall pay Owner for
installation of any additional Special Improvements if they have been
installed by Owner pursuant to Tenant's request. Where Special
Improvements are to be installed by Owner, Tenant shall give Owner written
notice of its final color selection and all other details of its office
layout in sufficient time to permit Owner's completion of all work by the
commencement date hereunder using its normal crews on a regular time
basis, and such notice shall in any event be given not later than fifteen
working days before such commencement date.
24 REAL PROPERTY TAXES
Owner shall pay all real property taxes and assessments that may be levied
against Building and the underlying land. If the amount of such real
property taxes and assessments shall, in any calendar year during the
Lease Term, exceed the amount of real property taxes and assessments
payable for the calendar year 1996, then on the tax payment dates in 1997
and on these dates of each succeeding year, Tenant shall reimburse Owner
for Tenant's proportionate share of such increase based upon the ratio
which area of Premises, as set forth in Article 1(b), bears to 350,000
square feet. Owner shall submit to Tenant, if so requested by Tenant, a
copy of the real property tax statement for the year in which payment is
requested. The foregoing charges constitute additional rent that shall be
deemed to have accrued uniformly during the calendar year in which payment
is due. The final payment under the provision of this Article shall be
prorated based on reasonable projections of the increase through the
termination of this Lease and shall be due thirty days before such
termination.
25 ANNUAL RENT ADJUSTMENT
To partially compensate for the effect of inflation, a portion of the
rental rate (viz. $7.50 per square foot per year) shall be adjusted to
reflect reductions, if any, in the purchasing power of the dollar. Three
separate generic elements of cost (namely: labor, materials and energy)
shall be deemed to be representative of all operational costs. Indices for
measuring changes in the dollar value for each of these cost elements
shall be: janitorial hourly labor rate, Consumer Price Index, and the
average cost per kilowatt-hour of electricity (including without
limitation all demand charges), respectively. Changes in each of these
shall adjust rent as provided below:
<TABLE>
Generic Element's Cost
Element of Cost Index Share
--------------- ----- --------------
<S> <C> <C>
1. Labor Janitorial rate $3.00
2. Material C.P.I. $3.00
3. Energy Average kwh cost $1.50
</TABLE>
The base index for each of these indices shall be established from data
for the month of September of the year preceding the year in which this
Lease commences. Indices for each succeeding year shall be calculated
annually using September experience data, and the ratio that these annual
indices bear to their respective base index shall be reduced by 1.00 then
multiplied by the individual element's cost share as specified in Items 1,
2 and 3 above, and by the area of Premises as set forth in Article 1(b).
Each January 1, following the calendar year in which the Lease becomes
effective, the Monthly Rent in Article 1(d) shall be increased by
one-twelfth (1/12) of the sum of the amounts so determined. No changes in
the rent as specified above shall take place during the calendar year in
which the Lease Term commences.
The janitorial hourly labor rate shall be that as established by the Hotel
Employees Restaurant Employees, Union Local No. 8 for journeymen janitors
including all applicable taxes and fringe benefits payable by employers.
The labor rate to be used as a base index for this Lease shall be $12.72.
The Consumer Price Index to be used shall be the Revised Consumer Price
Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, U.S. City Average,
All-Items Series (1982-1984 = 100), as published by the U.S. Department of
Labor, Bureau of Statistics. If this index is revised or changed (as, for
example, by taking the average index for different years as the base
figure of 100), the base index shall be adjusted accordingly. In the event
such index is discontinued, the index promulgated by the Department of
Labor most closely
10
<PAGE> 11
approximating the above referenced index shall be used as the base index.
The Consumer Price Index to be used as the base index for this Lease shall
be 150.6.
The cost per kilowatt-hour of electricity consumed in the Westin Building
(including seasonal factors and any tax or surcharge that may be imposed),
shall be determined by dividing the total amount billed to Account No.
171001453015 for the supply of electricity consumed primarily during the
month of September by the consumption shown in the billing column entitled
"Consumption kwh/kvarh." The cost to be used as a base index for this
Lease shall be $.036 per kilowatt-hour.
26 NOTICES
All notices under this Lease shall be in writing and delivered in person
or sent by registered or certified mail to Owner at its offices in
Building and to Tenant at Premises, or to such other place as may be set
forth in Article 1(h) or hereafter designated by either party in writing.
27 NAME OF BUILDING
Owner reserves the right in its sole discretion to change the name of
Building from that specified in Article 3.
28 CONSTRUCTION
The titles to articles of this Lease are not a part of this Lease and
shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part
thereof. This Lease shall be construed and governed by the law of the
State of Washington.
29 TIME OF ESSENCE
Time is of the essence of this Lease.
30 FORCE MAJEUR
In the event either Owner or Tenant shall be delayed or hindered in or
prevented from the performance of any act required hereunder by reason of
strikes, lockouts, labor troubles, inability to procure materials, failure
of power, restrictive governmental laws or regulations, riots,
insurrection, war or any reason of a like nature, not the fault of the
party delayed in performing work or doing acts required under the terms of
this Lease, then performance of such act shall be excused for the period
of such delay, provided that the provisions hereof shall not operate to
excuse Tenant from prompt payment of rent or any other payments required
by Tenant hereunder.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Owner and Tenant have signed this Lease on the dates noted

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORP.
EMPLOYEE CONFIDENTIALITY, NONRAIDING AND
NONCOMPETITION AGREEMENT
In consideration of my hire and continued employment by InterNAP Network
Services Corporation ("InterNAP"), the continued compensation of me by InterNAP
during my employment, and the disclosure to me of InterNAP's confidential and
proprietary information, I agree to the following terms and conditions.
1. Employment. Employment will begin on (date of hire). While
employed by InterNAP, I shall devote my entire working time, attention,
abilities and efforts to InterNAP's business and affairs, faithfully and
diligently serve InterNAP's interests, and refrain from engaging in any business
or employment activity, except those which do not interfere with my normal
activities on InterNAP's behalf and are not with business entities which compete
directly with InterNAP. My precise services may be extended or curtailed, from
time to time, at the direction of InterNAP, and I shall assume and perform such
further reasonable responsibilities and duties as may be assigned to me from
time to time by InterNAP.
2. Termination. My employment may be terminated by either InterNAP
or me at any time and for any reason, or for no reason, in either party's sole
and absolute discretion.
3. Payment. I understand and agree that I will be compensated for
my services as follows:
(a) Base Salary. A base annual salary of (salary), payable in equal
semi-monthly installments on approximately the 1st and 15th day of each month.
4. Confidentiality and Nondisclosure. I agree that information not
generally known to the public to which I will be exposed as a result of my being
employed by InterNAP is confidential information that belongs to InterNAP. This
includes information developed by me, alone or with others, or entrusted to
InterNAP by its customers or others. InterNAP's confidential information
includes, without limitation, information relating to InterNAP's trade secrets,
research and development, inventions, know-how, software, procedures,
accounting, marketing, sales, creative and marketing strategies, employee
salaries and compensation, and the identities of customers and active prospects
to the extent not publicly disclosed (collectively, "Confidential Information").
I will hold InterNAP's Confidential Information in strict confidence, and not
disclose or use it except as authorized by InterNAP and for InterNAP's benefit.
I further acknowledge and agree that in order to enable InterNAP to
perform services for its customers or clients, such customers or clients may
furnish to InterNAP certain Confidential Information, that the goodwill afforded
to InterNAP depends upon InterNAP and its employees preserving the
confidentiality of such information, and that such information shall be treated
as Confidential Information of InterNAP for all purposes under this Agreement.
5. Noncompetition. I recognize and agree that InterNAP has many
substantial, legitimate business interests that can be protected only by my
agreement not to compete with InterNAP under certain circumstances. These
interests include, without limitation, InterNAP's contacts and relationships
with its clients and active prospects, InterNAP's reputation and goodwill in the
industry, and InterNAP's rights in its Confidential Information. Therefore, I
agree that during the term of my employment with InterNAP and for a period of
one (1) year after my employment ends for any reason whatsoever, I shall not,
voluntarily or involuntarily, directly or indirectly, on my own behalf or on the
behalf of another, approach, solicit, accept, receive or do work in the area of
Inter/Intranet connectivity and hosting services for any account that was a
client or active prospect of
<PAGE> 2
InterNAP, its parent or subsidiaries during the twelve (12) month period
immediately preceding the date my employment with InterNAP ends. I may not,
should the opportunity arise, accept a position of employment with any of the
above specified clients or active prospects.
I also agree that during the term of my employment with InterNAP and for
a period of one (1) year after my employment ends for any reason whatsoever, I
shall not employ or seek to employ any person employed by InterNAP nor solicit
or induce any such person to leave InterNAP.
6. Injunctive Relief. I acknowledge that the breach or threatened
breach of the above noncompetition and/or nondisclosure provisions would cause
irreparable injury to InterNAP that could not be adequately compensated by money
damages. InterNAP may obtain a restraining order and/or injunction prohibiting
my breach or threatened breach of the noncompetition and/or nondisclosure
provisions, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies that may be
available. I agree that the above noncompetition provision, including its
duration, scope and geographic extent, is fair and reasonably necessary to
protect InterNAP's client relationships, goodwill, Confidential Information and
other protectable interests.
7. Possession. I agree that upon request by InterNAP, and in any
event upon termination of employment for any reason, I shall turn over to
InterNAP all documents, notes, papers, data, files, office supplies or other
material or work product in my possession or under my control which was created
pursuant to, is connected with or derived from my services to InterNAP, or which
is related in any manner to InterNAP's business activities or research and
development efforts, whether or not such material is currently in my possession.
8. Waiver of Breach. The waiver of any breach of any provision of
this Agreement or the failure to enforce any provision shall not be construed as
a waiver of any later breach by any party.

No. W. WARRANT TO PURCHASE
ISSUED: SHARES OF
CAPITAL STOCK
INTERNAP CORPORATION
STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
THIS IS TO CERTIFY that, for value received and subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, a, or such person to whom this Warrant is
transferred pursuant to Section 8 hereof (the "Holder"), is entitled to
purchase fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Capital Stock (the "Warrant
Stock") of INTERNAP CORPORATION, a Washington corporation (the "Company"),
issued to additional outside investors in an equity financing of the Company in
the amount of at least $2,000,000 (excluding conversion of all then outstanding
convertible promissory notes issued by the Company) (the "Financing") in the
amount determined in accordance with Section 2 and at a price per share (the
"Exercise Price") paid by the outside investors in the Financing (such number
of shares of Warrant Stock and the Exercise Price being subject to adjustment
as provided herein).
This Warrant is issued in connection with the extension of a loan to the
Company by evidenced by that certain Convertible Promissory Note of even
date in the amount of $16,667.00, a copy of which is attached hereto (the
"Note"). This Warrant is subject to the following additional terms and
conditions:
1. TERM
Subject to the terms hereof, this Warrant may be exercised at any time and
from time to time in whole or in part from and after the date of issuance of
this Warrant and on or before September 1, 2002 (the "Exercise Period"). Upon a
merger, consolidation, acquisition of all or
1
<PAGE> 2
substantially all of the property or stock, reorganization or liquidation of
the Company (collectively, a "Reorganization") during the Exercise Period, as a
result of which the shareholders of the Company receive cash, stock or other
property in exchange for their shares of Warrant Stock, this Warrant shall be
cancelled and all rights granted hereunder shall terminate; provided, however,
that the Company shall have delivered to the Holder notice of the
Reorganization no less than ten (10) business days before the date scheduled
for the Reorganization and that the Holder shall have the right immediately
prior to the Reorganization to exercise this Warrant.
2. NUMBER OF SHARES
Subject to the terms hereof, the maximum number of shares of Warrant
Stock the Holder shall be entitled to purchase pursuant to this Warrant shall
be equal to (x) the quotient of the Coverage Amount (as defined below) divided
by the Exercise Price plus (y) the Prior Accrual (as defined below). The
"Coverage Amount" shall be the factor calculated by multiplying the balance of
principal and accrued but unpaid interest owing on the Note immediately prior
to the earlier to occur of (a) the Financing or (b) the discharge of the Note
by payment in full (the "Note Event"), by the number set forth in the table
below corresponding to the one month period following the date hereof within
which the Note Event occurs. The "Prior Accrual" shall be the sum of the number
of shares of Warrant Stock equal to the Coverage Amount divided by the Exercise
Price for each month preceding the month in which the Note Event occurs.
0.046875 First Month (October 20 through November 19, 1997)
0.078125 Second Month (November 20 through December 19, 1997)
0.109375 Third Month (December 20 through January 19, 1998)
0.140625 Fourth Month (January 20 through February 19, 1998)
0.171875 Fifth Month (February 20 through March 19, 1998)
0.203125 Sixth Month (March 20 through April 19, 1998)
In the event the Note Event does not occur on or before April 19, 1998, the
Holder shall nevertheless be entitled to the full number of shares of Warrant
Stock determined as though the Note Event did occur in the Sixth Month, and the
Holder shall be entitled to exercise this Warrant in accordance with its terms
at such time as the Financing occurs if on or before October 20, 1998, or the
Exercise Price is otherwise agreed upon by the Company and the Holder in
accordance with Section 5(b). Furthermore, the Company and the Holder agree
that if the Note remains outstanding after the end of Sixth Month, the Holder
shall be entitled to additional shares of Warrant Stock, and the Company and
the Holder shall negotiate the amount of such additional shares in good faith,
taking into consideration the formula set forth above.
3. METHOD OF EXERCISE
3.1 CASH EXERCISE
This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part by delivering to the
Company (a) the form of Election to Purchase attached hereto duly completed and
executed by the Holder, (b) this Warrant certificate, and (c) a bank check
payable to the Company in the amount of the Exercise
2
<PAGE> 3
Price multiplied by the number of shares for which this Warrant is being
exercised (the "Purchase Price").
3.2 NET ISSUE EXERCISE
Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the fair market
value of one share of Warrant Stock is greater than the Exercise Price of such
share (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising
this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value
(as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by
surrender of this Warrant together with the duly completed and executed Election
to Purchase and notice of such election, in which event the Company shall issue
to the Holder a number of shares of Warrant Stock computed using the following
formula:
Y (A-B)
-------
X = A
Where X = the number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued to the
Holder
Y = the number of shares of Warrant 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 Warrant Stock
(at the date of such calculation)
B = the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such
calculation)
For purposes of the above calculation, the fair market value of one share of
Warrant Stock shall be determined by the Company's Board of Directors in good
faith; provided, however, that where there exists a public market for the
Warrant Stock at the time of such exercise, the fair market value per share
shall be the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the Warrant Stock
quoted in the Over-The-Counter Market Summary or the last reported sale price
of the Warrant Stock or the closing price quoted on the Nasdaq National Market
or on any exchange on which the Warrant Stock is listed, whichever is
applicable, as published in the Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal for
the five (5) trading days prior to the date of determination of fair market
value. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Warrant is exercised in
connection with the Company's initial public offering of Warrant Stock, the
fair market value per share will be the per share offering price to the public
of the Company's initial public offering.
4. DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES
Within ten (10) days after the payment of the Purchase Price following
the exercise of this Warrant (in whole or in part), the Company at its expense
shall issue in the name of and deliver to the Holder (a) a certificate or
certificates for the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of
3
<PAGE> 4
Warrant Stock to which the holder shall be entitled upon such exercise and
payment, and (b) a new Warrant of like tenor to purchase up to that number of
shares of Warrant Stock, if any, not previously purchased by the Holder if this
Warrant has not expired. The Holder shall for all purposes be deemed to have
become the holder of record of such shares of Warrant Stock on the date by which
this Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Purchase Price was made,
irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificate or certificates
representing the Warrant Stock; provided that, if the date by which such
surrender and payment is made is a date when the stock transfer books of the
Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of
record of such shares of Warrant Stock at the close of business on the next
succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.
5. COVENANTS AS TO WARRANT STOCK
(a) The Company covenants and agrees that all the shares of Warrant
Stock issued pursuant to the terms of this Warrant will, upon their issuance, be
validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
taxes, liens and changes with respect to the issue thereof. The Company further
covenants and agrees that the Company will at all times have authorized and
reserved a sufficient number of shares of Warrant Stock to provide for the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
(b) In the event the Financing does not occur on or before October 20,
1998, and the Holder desires to exercise this Warrant, the Warrant Stock shall
be the class of Capital Stock most recently issued by the Company, and the
Company and the Holder shall negotiate the amount of the Exercise Price in good
faith, based upon previous issuances of the Company's securities, the financial
performance of the Company and the market conditions then prevailing.
6. ADJUSTMENTS TO WARRANT
(a) If after the Exercise Price is fixed in connection with the
Financing on or before October 20, 1998, or is determined in accordance with
Section 5(b), the Company shall issue any shares of its Warrant Stock as a stock
dividend or subdivide the number of outstanding shares of Warrant Stock into a
greater number of shares, then, in either such case, the Exercise Price in
effect before such dividend or subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and
the number of shares of Warrant Stock at that time purchasable pursuant to this
Warrant shall be proportionately increased; and, conversely, if the Company
shall decrease the number of outstanding shares of Warrant Stock by combining
such shares into a smaller number of shares, then the Exercise Price in effect
before such combination shall be proportionately increased the number of shares
of Warrant Stock at that time purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall be
proportionately decreased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the
Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 6, the number of shares of Warrant Stock
purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number
determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the
Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
4
<PAGE> 5
(b) In case of any reclassification or change of the outstanding
securities of the Company or of any reorganization of the Company (or any other
corporation the stock or securities of which are at the time receivable upon
the exercise of this Warrant) or any similar corporate reorganization on or
after the date hereof (excluding a Reorganization, as defined in Section 1),
then and in each such case the Holder, upon the exercise hereof at any time
after the consummation of such reclassification, change, reorganization, merger
or conveyance, shall be entitled to received, in lieu of the stock or other
securities and property receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such
consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which the Holder
would have been entitled upon such consummation if the Holder has exercised
this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as
provided in Section 6(a); and in each such case, the terms of this Section 6
shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities properly
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation.
(c) When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price, the
Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a certificate setting forth the
Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the
facts requiring such adjustment. Such certificate shall also set forth the kind
and amount of stock or other securities or property into which this Warrant
shall be exercisable following the occurrence of any of the events specified in
Section 6(a) or (b) above.
(d) In order to avoid doubt, it is acknowledged that the Holder shall be
entitled to the benefit of all adjustments in the number of shares of Common
Stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Stock of the
Company which occur prior to the exercise of this Warrant, including without
limitation, any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion as a result of a dilutive issuance of capital stock.
7. FRACTIONAL SHARES
No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In
lieu of fractional shares, the Company shall pay the Holder a sum in cash equal
to the fair market value of the fractional shares (as determined by the
Company's Board of Directors) on the date of exercise.
8. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER
Neither this Warrant nor the Warrant Stock may be transferred unless (a)
such transfer is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), and any applicable state securities or blue sky laws, (b)
the Company has received a legal opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Company
to the effect that the transfer is exempt from the prospectus delivery and
registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state
securities or blue sky laws, or (c) the Company otherwise satisfies itself that
such transfer is exempt from registration.
9. LEGEND
A legend setting forth or referring to the above restrictions shall be
placed on this Warrant, any replacement hereof or any certificate representing
the Warrant Stock, and a stop transfer restriction or other shall be placed on
the books of the Company and with any transfer agent until such securities may
be legally sold or otherwise transferred.

registration rights, rights of information and right of first refusal granted
to the outside investors in the Financing, and the Warrant Stock to be issued

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
Date of Issuance: December 15, 1998
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, InterNAP Network Services Corporation, a Washington
corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to Bob Kingsbook (the "Purchaser")
or its registered assigns (the "Registered Holder") the right to purchase from
the Company 8,333 shares of Warrant Stock at a price per share of $.60 (as
adjusted from time to time hereunder, the "Exercise Price"). This Warrant was
issued pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of the
date hereof (the "Purchase Agreement"), between the Company and the Purchaser.
Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 5 hereof. The
amount and kind of securities obtainable pursuant to the rights granted
hereunder and the purchase price for such securities are subject to adjustment
pursuant to the provisions contained in this Warrant.
This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:
Section 1. Exercise of Warrant.
A. Exercise Period. The Registered Holder may exercise, in whole or in
part, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant at any time and from time
to time after the Date of Issuance to and including the later of (i) the tenth
anniversary of the final acceptance of equipment by the Company under the
Equipment Financing with the Purchaser and (ii) the fifth anniversary of the
consummation of the public offering of the Company's Common Stock registered
under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Exercise Period"). The Company shall
give the Registered Holder written notice of the expiration of the Exercise
Period at least 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the end of the
Exercise Period.
<PAGE> 2
B. Exercise Procedure.
(i) This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised when the
Company has received all of the following items (the "Exercise Time"):
(a) a completed Exercise Agreement, as described in
paragraph 1C below, executed by the Person exercising all or part of the
purchase rights represented by this Warrant (the "Purchaser");
(b) this Warrant;
(c) if this Warrant is not registered in the name of the
Purchaser, an Assignment or Assignments in the form set forth in Exhibit II
hereto evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the Purchaser, in which
case the Registered Holder shall have complied with the provisions set forth in
Section 7 hereof, and
(d) either (1) a check payable to the Company in an amount
equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares
of Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise (the "Aggregate Exercise
Price"), (2) the surrender to the Company of debt or equity securities of the
Company having a Market Price equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price of the
Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise (provided that for purposes of
this subparagraph, the Market Price of any note or other debt security or any
preferred stock shall be deemed to be equal to the aggregate outstanding
principal amount or liquidation value thereof plus all accrued and unpaid
interest thereon or accrued or declared and unpaid dividends thereon) or (3) a
written notice to the Company that the Purchaser is exercising the Warrant (or
a portion thereof) by authorizing the Company to withhold from issuance a
number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant
which when multiplied by the Market Price of the Warrant Stock is equal to the
Aggregate Exercise Price (and such withheld shares shall no longer be issuable
under this Warrant).
(ii) Certificates for shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be delivered by the Company to the Purchaser
promptly after the date of the Exercise Time. Unless this Warrant has expired
or all of the purchase rights represented hereby have been exercised, the
Company shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto,
representing the rights formerly represented by this Warrant which have not
expired or been exercised and shall promptly deliver such new Warrant to the
Person designated for delivery in the Exercise Agreement.
(iii) The Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to have been issued to the Purchaser at the Exercise Time, and
the Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder
of such Warrant Stock at the Exercise Time.
(iv) The issuance of certificates for shares of Warrant Stock upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder
or the Purchaser for any
-2-
<PAGE> 3
issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Company in
connection with such exercise and the related issuance of shares of Warrant
Stock. Each share of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
shall, upon payment of the Exercise Price therefor, be fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all liens and charges with respect to the issuance
thereof.
(v) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer
of this Warrant or of any share of Warrant Stock issued or issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely
exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall from time to time take all such
action as may be necessary to assure that the par value per share of the
unissued Warrant Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant is at all times
equal to or less than the Exercise Price then in effect.
(vi) The Company shall assist and cooperate with any Registered
Holder or Purchaser required to make any governmental filings or obtain any
governmental approvals prior to or in connection with any exercise of this
Warrant (including, without limitation, making any filings required to be made
by the Company).
(vii) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise
of any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a registered
public offering or the sale of the Company, the exercise of any portion of this
Warrant may, at the election of the holder hereof, be conditioned upon the
consummation of the public offering or the sale of the Company in which case
such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until the consummation of
such transaction.
(viii) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available
out of its authorized but unissued shares of Warrant Stock solely for the
purpose of issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of
Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall
take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of
Warrant Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or
governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange
upon which shares of Warrant Stock may be listed (except for official notice of
issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such
issuance). The Company shall not take any action which would cause the number
of authorized but unissued shares of Warrant Stock to be less than the number
of such shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of
this Warrant.
C. Exercise Agreement. Upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Exercise
Agreement shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit I hereto,
except that if the shares of Warrant Stock are not to be issued in the name of
the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered, the Exercise Agreement
shall also state the name of the Person to whom the certificates for the shares
of Warrant Stock are to be issued, and if the number of shares of Warrant Stock
to be issued does not include all the shares of Warrant Stock purchasable
hereunder, it shall also state the name of the Person to whom a new Warrant for
the unexercised portion of the rights hereunder is to be delivered. Such
Exercise Agreement shall be dated the actual date of execution thereof.
D. Conversion of the Series B Preferred. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Warrant, if all of the issued and outstanding shares of the
Company's Series B Preferred are converted automatically into shares of Common
Stock pursuant to Section 3(b) of the Company's
-3-
<PAGE> 4
Certificate of Incorporation (the "Automatic Conversion"), this Warrant shall
no longer be exercisable into shares of Series B Preferred but immediately upon
the consummation of the Automatic Conversion shall become exercisable into a
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series B Preferred issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant as of the consummation of such event at an Exercise
Price equal to the Series B Conversion Price (as defined under the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation) in effect as of the consummation of such event.
Following the occurrence of the Automatic Conversion, the provisions of this
Warrant shall continue to apply to the Warrant Stock which shall then be Common
Stock.
Section 2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The
Exercise Price and the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in
this Section 2.
A. Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any
time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or
otherwise) the Warrant Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately
reduced and the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall be proportionately increased, and if the Company at any time
combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) the Warrant Stock into a smaller
number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of
Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately
decreased.
B. Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or other transaction,
which in each case is effected in such a way that the holders of Warrant Stock
are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock,
securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Warrant Stock is
referred to herein as "Organic Change." Prior to the consummation of any Organic
Change, the Company and Holder shall make appropriate provision (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Registered Holder of this Warrant) to insure that
the Registered Holder shall thereupon receive or thereafter have the right to
acquire and receive, in lieu of or addition to (as the case may be) the shares
of Warrant Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the
exercise of such holder's Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as
may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares
of Warrant Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise
of such holder's Warrant had such Organic Change not taken place. In any such
applicable case, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Registered Holder of this Warrant) with respect to
such holders' rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section
2 and Sections 3 and 4 hereof shall thereafter be applicable to this Warrant.
C. Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the
provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such provisions,
then the Company's board of directors shall make an appropriate adjustment in
the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable upon
exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the holder of
-4-
<PAGE> 5
this Warrant; provided that no such adjustment shall increase the Exercise Price
or decrease the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable as otherwise
determined pursuant to this Section 2.
D. Notices.
(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, the
Company shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holder, setting
forth in reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment.
(ii) The Company shall give written notice to the Registered
Holder at least 20 days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books
or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the
Common Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of
Common Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic
Change, dissolution or liquidation.

satisfactory to the Company (an affidavit of the Registered Holder shall be

investor its own agreement shall be satisfactory), or, in the case of any such
mutilation upon surrender of such certificate, the Company shall (at its
expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new certificate of
like kind representing the same rights represented by such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated the date of such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated certificate.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
Date of Issuance: September 1, 1998
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, InterNAP Network Services Corporation, a Washington
corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to Phoenix Leasing Incorporated (the
"Purchaser") or its registered assigns (the "Registered Holder") the right to
purchase from the Company 75,001 shares of Warrant Stock at a price per share
of $.60 (as adjusted from time to time hereunder, the "Exercise Price"). This
Warrant was issued pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Purchase Agreement,
dated as of the date hereof (the "Purchase Agreement"), between the Company and
the Purchaser. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 5
hereof. The amount and kind of securities obtainable pursuant to the rights
granted hereunder and the purchase price for such securities are subject to
adjustment pursuant to the provisions contained in this Warrant.
This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:
Section 1. Exercise of Warrant.
A. Exercise Period. The Registered Holder may exercise, in whole or in
part, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant at any time and from time
to time after the Date of Issuance to and including the later of (i) the tenth
anniversary of the final acceptance of equipment by the Company under the
Equipment Financing with the Purchaser and (ii) the fifth anniversary of the
consummation of the public offering of the Company's Common Stock registered
under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Exercise Period"). The Company shall
give the Registered Holder written notice of the expiration of the Exercise
Period at least 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the end of the
Exercise Period.
<PAGE> 2
B. Exercise Procedure.
(i) This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised
when the Company has received all of the following items (the "Exercise Time"):
(a) a completed Exercise Agreement, as described in
paragraph 1C below, executed by the Person exercising all or part of the
purchase rights represented by this Warrant (the "Purchaser");
(b) this Warrant;
(c) if this Warrant is not registered in the name
of the Purchaser, an Assignment or Assignments in the form set forth in Exhibit
II hereto evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the Purchaser, in which
case the Registered Holder shall have complied with the provisions set forth in
Section 7 hereof; and
(d) either (1) a check payable to the Company in an
amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of
shares of Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise (the "Aggregate
Exercise Price"), (2) the surrender to the Company of debt or equity securities
of the Company having a Market Price equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price of
the Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise (provided that for
purposes of this subparagraph, the Market Price of any note or other debt
security or any preferred stock shall be deemed to be equal to the aggregate
outstanding principal amount or liquidation value thereof plus all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon or accrued or declared and unpaid dividends thereon) or
(3) a written notice to the Company that the Purchaser is exercising the Warrant
(or a portion thereof) by authorizing the Company to withhold from issuance a
number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant
which when multiplied by the Market Price of the Warrant Stock is equal to the
Aggregate Exercise Price (and such withheld shares shall no longer be issuable
under this Warrant).
(ii) Certificate for shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be delivered by the Company to the Purchaser
promptly after the date of the Exercise Time. Unless this Warrant has expired
or all of the purchaser rights represented hereby have been exercised, the
Company, shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto,
representing the rights formerly represented by this Warrant which have not
expired or been exercised and shall promptly deliver such new Warrant to the
Person designated for delivery in the Exercise Agreement.
(iii) The Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant shall be deemed to have been issued to the Purchaser at the Exercise
Time, and the Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the
record holder of such Warrant Stock at the Exercise Time.
-2-
<PAGE> 3
(iv) The issuance of certificates for shares of Warrant Stock upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder
or the Purchaser for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred
by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related issuance of
shares of Warrant Stock. Each share of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall, upon payment of the Exercise Price therefor, be fully paid
and nonassessable and free from all liens and charges with respect to the
issuance thereof.
(v) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of
this Warrant or of any share of Warrant Stock issued or issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise
of this Warrant. The Company shall from time to time take all such action as may
be necessary to assure that the par value per share of the unissued Warrant
Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant is at all times equal to or less
than the Exercise Price then in effect.
(vi) The Company shall assist and cooperate with any Registered
Holder or Purchaser required to make any governmental filings or obtain any
governmental approvals prior to or in connection with any exercise of this
Warrant (including, without limitation, making any filings required to be made
by the Company).
(vii) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of
any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a registered public
offering or the sale of the Company, the exercise of any portion of this Warrant
may, at the election of the holder hereof, be conditioned upon the consummation
of the public offering or the sale of the Company in which case such exercise
shall not be deemed to be effective until the consummation of such transaction.
(viii) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out
of its authorized but unissued shares of Warrant Stock solely for the purpose
of issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of Warrant
Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall take all
such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Warrant Stock
may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental
regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which
shares of Warrant Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance
which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance).
The Company shall not take any action which would cause the number of authorized
but unissued shares of Warrant Stock to be less than the number of such shares
required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant.
C. Exercise Agreement. Upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Exercise
Agreement shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit I hereto,
except that if the shares of Warrant Stock are not to be issued in the name of
the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered, the Exercise Agreement
shall also state the name of the Person to whom the certificates for the shares
of Warrant Stock are to be issued, and if the number of shares of Warrant Stock
to be issued does not include all the shares of Warrant Stock purchasable
hereunder, it shall also state
-3-
<PAGE> 4
the name of the Person to whom a new Warrant for the unexercised portion of the
rights hereunder is to be delivered. Such Exercise Agreement shall be dated the
actual date of execution thereof.
D. Conversion of the Series B Preferred. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Warrant, if all of the issued and outstanding shares of the
Company's Series B Preferred are converted automatically into shares of Common
Stock pursuant to Section 3(b) of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation
(the "Automatic Conversion"), this Warrant shall no longer be exercisable into
shares of Series B Preferred but immediately upon the consummation of the
Automatic Conversion shall become exercisable into a number of shares of Common
Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the shares of Series B Preferred issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as of
the consummation of such event at an Exercise Price equal to the Series B
Conversion Price (as defined under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation)
in effect as of the consummation of such event. Following the occurrence of the
Automatic Conversion, the provisions of this Warrant shall continue to apply to
the Warrant Stock which shall then be Common Stock.
Section 2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The Exercise
Price and the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this
Section 2.
A. Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time
subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise)
the Warrant Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the
number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
be proportionately increased, and if the Company at any time combines (by
reverse stock split or otherwise) the Warrant Stock into a smaller number of
shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination
shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Warrant Stock
obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased.
B. Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Any
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale
of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or other transaction, which
in each case is effected in such a way that the holders of Warrant Stock are
entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock,
securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Warrant Stock is
referred to herein as "Organic Change." Prior to the consummation of any Organic
Change, the Company and Holder shall make appropriate provision (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Registered Holder of this Warrant) to insure that
the Registered Holder shall thereupon receive or thereafter have the right to
acquire and receive, in lieu of or addition to (as the case may be) the shares
of Warrant Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the
exercise of such holder's Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as
may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares
of Warrant Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise
of such holder's Warrant had such Organic Change not taken place. In any such
applicable case, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form
-4-
<PAGE> 5
and substance satisfactory to the Registered Holder of this Warrant) with
respect to such holders' rights and interests to insure that the provisions of
this Section 2 and Sections 3 and 4 hereof shall thereafter be applicable to
this Warrant.
C. Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the
provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such provisions,
then the Company's board of directors shall make an appropriate adjustment in
the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable upon
exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the holder of this
Warrant; provided that no such adjustment shall increase the Exercise Price or
decrease the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable as otherwise
determined pursuant to this Section 2.
D. Notices.
(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, the
Company shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holder, setting
forth in reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment.

at least 20 days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or

Change, dissolution or liquidation.
(iii) The Company shall also give written notice to the Registered
Holders at least 20 days prior to the date on which any Organic Change,
dissolution or liquidation shall take place.
Section 3. Liquidating Dividends. If the Company declares or pays a
dividend upon the Preferred Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of
earnings or earned surplus (determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, consistently applied)(a "Liquidating Dividend"), then
the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder of this Warrant at the time of
payment thereof the Liquidating Dividend which would have been paid to such
Registered Holder on the Warrant Stock had this Warrant been fully exercised
immediately prior to the date on which a record is taken for such Liquidating
Dividend, or, if no record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of
Preferred Stock entitled to such dividends are to be determined.

principal office of the Company, for new Warrants of like tenor representing in
the aggregate the purchase rights hereunder, and each of such new Warrants
shall represent such portion of such rights as is designated by the Registered
Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, that in no event shall
more than five (5) Warrants be issued and outstanding. The date the Company
initially issues this Warrant shall be deemed to be the "Date of Issuance"
hereof regardless of the number of times new certificates representing the
unexpired and unexercised rights formerly represented by this Warrant shall be
issued.
Section 9. Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company (an affidavit of the Registered Holder shall be satisfactory) of
the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificate
evidencing this Warrant, and in the case of any such loss, theft or
destruction, upon receipt of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company
(provided that if the holder is a financial institution or other institutional
investor its own agreement shall be satisfactory), or, in the case of any such
mutilation upon surrender of such certificate, the Company shall (at its
expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new certificate of
like kind representing the same rights represented by such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated the date of such lost, stolen,

provisions of this Warrant may be amended and the Company may take any action
herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by

in the performance of or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant are
not and will not be adequate to the fullest extent permitted by law, and that
such terms may be specifically enforced by a decree for the
-8-

specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction
against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise.
Section 13. Enforcement Costs. If any party to, or beneficiary of, this
Warrant seeks to enforce its rights hereunder by legal proceedings or
otherwise, then the non-prevailing party shall pay all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by the prevailing party, including, without limitation, all
reasonable attorneys' fees (including the allocable costs of in-house counsel).
Section 14. Descriptive Headings; Governing Law. The descriptive headings
of the several Sections and paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for

of Washington or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of
the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Washington.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be signed and
attested by its duly authorized officers under its corporate seal and to be

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORPORATION
PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
Date of Issuance: May 5, 1998 Certificate No. PW-2
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, InterNAP Network Services Corporation, a
Washington corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to First Portland
Corporation (the "Purchaser") or its registered assigns (the "Registered
Holder") the right to purchase from the Company 41,667 shares of Warrant Stock
at a price per share of $.60 (as adjusted from time to time hereunder, the
"Exercise Price"). This Warrant was issued pursuant to the terms of the Warrant
Purchase Agreement, dated as of March __, 1998 (the "Purchase Agreement"),
between the Company and the Purchaser. Certain capitalized terms used herein
are defined in Section 5 hereof. The amount and kind of securities obtainable
pursuant to the rights granted hereunder and the purchase price for such
securities are subject to adjustments pursuant to the provisions contained in
this Warrant.
This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:
Section 1. Exercise of Warrant.
1A. Exercise Period. The Registered Holder may exercise, in whole
or in part, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant at any time and
from time to time after the Date of Issuance to and including the later of (i)
the tenth anniversary of the final acceptance of equipment by the Company under
the Equipment Financing with the Purchaser and (ii) the fifth anniversary of
the consummation of the public offering of the Company's Common Stock
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Exercise Period"). The
Company shall give the Registered Holder written notice of the expiration of
the Exercise Period at
<PAGE> 2
least 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the end of the Exercise Period.
1B. Exercise Procedure.
(i) This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised when the
Company has received all of the following items (the "Exercise Time");
(a) a completed Exercise Agreement, as described in paragraph 1C
below, executed by the Person exercising all or part of the purchase
rights represented by this Warrant (the "Purchaser");
(b) this Warrant;
(c) if this Warrant is not registered in the name of the Purchaser,
an Assignment or Assignments in the form set forth in Exhibit II hereto
evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the Purchaser, in which case
the Registered Holder shall have complied with the provisions set forth
in Section 7 hereof; and
(d) either (1) a check payable to the Company in an amount equal to
the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of
Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise (the "Aggregate Exercise
Price"), (2) the surrender to the Company of debt or equity securities of
the Company having a Market Price equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price
of the Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise (provided that
for purposes of this subparagraph, the Market Price of any note or other
debt security or any preferred stock shall be deemed to be equal to the
aggregate outstanding principal amount or liquidation value thereof plus
all accrued and unpaid interest thereon or accrued or declared and unpaid
dividends thereon) or (3) a written notice to the Company that the
Purchaser is exercising the Warrant (or a portion thereof) by authorizing
the Company to withhold from issuance a number of shares of Warrant
Stock issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant which when multiplied by
the Market Price of the Warrant Stock is equal to the Aggregate Exercise
Price (and such withheld shares shall no longer be issuable under this
Warrant).
(ii) Certificates for shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be delivered by the Company to the Purchaser
within five business days after the date of the Exercise Time. Unless this
Warrant has expired or all of the purchase rights represented hereby have been
exercised, the Company
-2-
<PAGE> 3
shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto, representing the
rights formerly represented by this Warrant which have not expired or been
exercised and shall, within such five-day period, deliver such new Warrant to
the Person designated for delivery in the Exercise Agreement.
(iii) The Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to have been issued to the Purchaser at the Exercise Time, and
the Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder
of such Warrant Stock at the Exercise Time.
(iv) The issuance of certificates for shares of Warrant Stock upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder
or the Purchaser for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred
by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related issuance of
shares of Warrant Stock. Each share of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall, upon payment of the Exercise Price therefor, be fully paid
and nonassessable and free from all liens and charges with respect to the
issuance thereof.
(v) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of
this Warrant or of any share of Warrant Stock issued or issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely
exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall from time to time take all such
action as may be necessary to assure that the par value per share of the
unissued Warrant Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant is at all times
equal to or less than the Exercise Price then in effect.
(vi) The Company shall assist and cooperate with any Registered
Holder or Purchaser required to make any governmental filings or obtain any
governmental approvals prior to or in connection with any exercise of this
Warrant (including, without limitation, making any filings required to be made
by the Company).
(vii) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of
any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a registered
public offering or the sale of the Company, the exercise of any portion of this
Warrant may, at the election of the holder hereof, be conditioned upon the
consummation of the public offering or the sale of the Company in which case
such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until the consummation of
such transaction.
(viii) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available
out of its authorized but unissued shares of Warrant Stock solely for the
purpose of issuance upon the exercise of the
-3-
<PAGE> 4
Warrants, such number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of
this Warrant. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to
assure that all such shares of Warrant Stock may be so issued without violation
of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any
domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Warrant Stock may be listed
(except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by
the Company upon each such issuance). The Company shall not take any action
which would cause the number of authorized but unissued shares of Warrant Stock
to be less than the number of such shares required to be reserved hereunder for
issuance upon exercise of this Warrant.
1C. Exercise Agreement. Upon any exercise of this Warrant, the
Exercise Agreement shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit I
hereto, except that if the shares of Warrant Stock are not to be issued in the
name of the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered, the Exercise
Agreement shall also state the name of the Person to whom the certificates for
the shares of Warrant Stock are to be issued, and if the number of shares of
Warrant Stock to be issued does not include all the shares of Warrant Stock
purchasable hereunder, it shall also state the name of the Person to whom a new
Warrant for the unexercised portion of the rights hereunder is to be delivered.
Such Exercise Agreement shall be dated the actual date of execution thereof.
1D. Conversion of the Series B Preferred. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Warrant, if all of the issued and outstanding shares of the
Company's Series B Preferred are converted automatically into shares of Common
Stock pursuant to Section 3(b) of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation
(the "Automatic Conversion"), this Warrant shall no longer be exercisable into
shares of Series B Preferred but immediately upon the consummation of the
Automatic Conversion shall become exercisable into a number of shares of Common
Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the shares of Series B Preferred issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as of
the consummation of such event at an Exercise Price equal to the Series B
Conversion Price (as defined under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation)
in effect as of the consummation of such event. Following the occurrence of the
Automatic Conversion, the provisions of this Warrant shall continue to apply to
the Warrant Stock which shall then be Common Stock.
Section 2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The
Exercise Price and the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in
this Section 2.
-4-
<PAGE> 5
2A. Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at
any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or
otherwise) the Warrant Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately
reduced and the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall be proportionately increased, and if the Company at any time
combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) the Warrant Stock into a smaller
number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of
Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately
decreased.
2B. Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or
Sale. Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or other
transaction, which in each case is effected in such a way that the holders of
Warrant Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent
liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for
Warrant Stock is referred to herein as "Organic Change." Prior to the
consummation of any Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate
provision (in form and substance satisfactory to the Registered Holder of this
Warrant) to insure that the Registered Holder shall thereafter have the right
to acquire and receive, in lieu of or addition to (as the case may be) the
shares of Warrant Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon
the exercise of such holder's Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or
assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the
number of shares of Warrant Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and
receivable upon exercise of such holder's Warrant had such Organic Change not
taken place. In any such case, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in
form and substance satisfactory to the Registered Holder of this Warrant) with
respect to such holders' rights and interests to insure that the provisions of
this Section 2 and Sections 3 and 4 hereof shall thereafter be applicable to
this Warrant. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger or
sale, unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor entity (if other
than the Company) resulting from consolidation or merger or the entity
purchasing such assets assumes by written instrument (in form and substance
satisfactory to the Registered Holder of this Warrant), the obligation to
deliver to each such holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in
accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to
acquire.
2C. Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by
the provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such
provisions, then the Company's board of
-5-
<PAGE> 6
directors shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the
number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant so
as to protect the rights of the holder of this Warrant; provided that no such
adjustment shall increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of shares
of Warrant Stock obtainable as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.
2D. Notices.
(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, the
Company shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holder, setting
forth in reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment.
(ii) The Company shall give written notice to the Registered Holder
at least 20 days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or
takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common
Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common
Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic Change,
dissolution or liquidation.
(iii) The Company shall also give written notice to the Registered
Holders at least 20 days prior to the date on which any Organic Change,
dissolution or liquidation shall take place.
Section 3. Liquidating Dividends. If the Company declares or pays a
dividend upon the Preferred Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of
earnings or earned surplus (determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, consistently applied) (a "Liquidating Dividend"), then
the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder of this Warrant at the time of
payment thereof the Liquidating Dividend which would have been paid to such
Registered Holder on the Warrant Stock had this Warrant been fully exercised
immediately prior to the date on which a record is taken for such Liquidating
Dividend, or, if no record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of
Preferred Stock entitled to such dividends are to be determined.
Section 4. Purchase Rights. If at any time the Company grants,
issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase
stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of
Preferred Stock (the "Purchase Rights"), then the Registered Holder of this
Warrant shall be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such
Purchase Rights, the Aggregate Purchase Rights which such holder could have
acquired if such holder had held the number of shares of Warrant Stock
acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant immediately
-6-
<PAGE> 7
before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of
such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the
record holders of Preferred Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or
sale of such Purchase Rights.
Section 5. Definitions. The following terms have meanings set forth
below:
"Common Stock" means, collectively, the Company's Common Stock and
any capital stock of any class of the Company hereafter authorized which is not

consecutive business days prior to such day; provided that if such security is
listed on any domestic securities exchange the term "business days" as used in
this sentence means business days on which such exchange is open for trading. If
at any time such security is not listed on any domestic securities exchange or
quoted in the NASDAQ System or the domestic over-the-counter market, the "Market
Price" shall be the fair value thereof determined jointly by the Company and the
Registered Holder of this Warrant; provided that if such parties are unable to
reach agreement within a reasonable period of time, such fair value shall be
determined by an appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Registered

Stock" shall mean one share of the security issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants if such security is issuable in shares, or shall mean the smallest
unit in which such security is issuable if such security is not issuable in
shares.
Other capitalized terms used in this Warrant but not defined herein
shall have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
Section 6. No Voting Rights; Limitations on Liability. This Warrant
shall not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a
stockholder of the Company. No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative
action by the Registered Holder to purchase Warrant Stock, and no enumeration

Company (provided that if the holder is a financial institution or other
institutional investor its own agreement shall be satisfactory), or, in the
case of any such mutilation upon surrender of such certificate, the Company
shall (at its expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new
certificate of like kind representing the same rights represented by such lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated the date of such lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate.
Section 10. Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
all notices referred to in this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be

No. W-____ WARRANT TO PURCHASE
ISSUED: December 24, 1998 315,600 SHARES OF
SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORP.
SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
THIS IS TO CERTIFY that, for value received and subject to the terms
and conditions hereof, ROBERT SHURTLEFF, JR., or such person to whom this
Warrant is transferred pursuant to Section 8 hereof (the "Holder"), is entitled
to purchase three hundred fifteen thousand six hundred (315,600) fully paid and
nonassessable shares of the Series B Preferred Stock (the "Warrant Stock") of
INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES CORP., a Washington corporation (the "Company"), at a
price of sixty cents ($0.60) per share (the "Exercise Price").
Warrant Nos. W-1 and W-3 were each issued to the Holder by the Company
as of February 13, 1997 (the "Initial Warrants") in connection with the
extension of a loan to the Company by Robert Shurtleff, Jr. evidenced by that
certain Securable Convertible Promissory Note of even date in the amount of
$125,000.00. As of December 24, 1998, the Holder exercised the Initial Warrants
for an aggregate of one hundred sixteen thousand one hundred sixty-six (116,666)
shares of Warrant Stock (the "Exercise"). As a result of the Exercise, the
Initial Warrants are to be cancelled in their entirety and replaced by this
Warrant, which represents the remaining number of shares of Warrant Stock
available to the Holder under the Initial Warrants after giving effect to the
Exercise. This Warrant is subject to the following additional terms and
conditions:
1. TERM
Subject to the terms hereof, this Warrant may be exercised at any time
and from time to time in whole or in part from and after the date of issuance of
this Warrant and on or before February 13, 2002 (the "Exercise Period"). Upon a
merger, consolidation, acquisition of all or substantially all of the property
or stock, reorganization or liquidation of the Company
1.
<PAGE> 2
(collectively, a "Reorganization") during the Exercise Period, as a result of
which the shareholders of the Company receive cash, stock or other property in
exchange for their shares of Warrant Stock, this Warrant shall be canceled and
all rights granted hereunder shall terminate; provided, however, that the
Company shall have delivered to the Holder notice of the Reorganization no less
than ten (10) business days before the date scheduled for the Reorganization and
that the Holder shall have the right immediately prior to the Reorganization to
exercise this Warrant.
2. NUMBER OF SHARES
Subject to the terms hereof, the maximum number of shares of Warrant
Stock the Holder shall be entitled to purchase pursuant to this Warrant shall be
three hundred fifteen thousands six hundred (315,600).
3. METHOD OF EXERCISE
3.1 CASH EXERCISE
This Warrant may be exercised in whole or part by delivering to the
Company (a) the form of Election to Purchase attached hereto duly completed and
executed by the Holder, (b) this Warrant certificate, and (c) a bank check
payable to the Company in the amount of the Exercise Price multiplied by the
number of shares for which this Warrant is being exercised (the "Purchase
Price").
3.2 NET ISSUE EXERCISE
Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the fair
market value of one share of Warrant Stock is greater than the Exercise Price of
such share (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of
exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal
to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being
canceled) by surrender of this Warrant together with the duly completed and
executed Election to Purchase and notice of such election, in which event the
Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Warrant Stock computed
using the following formula:
Y (A-B)
X= -------
A
Where X = the number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued
to the Holder
Y = the number of shares of Warrant 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 such calculation)
A = fair market value of one share of the Warrant Stock
(at the date of such calculation)
B = the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such
calculation)
2.
<PAGE> 3
For purposes of the above calculation, the fair market value of one share of
Warrant Stock shall be determined by the Company's Board of Directors in good
faith; provided, however, that where there exists a public market for the

taxes, liens and changes with respect to the issue thereof. The Company further
covenants and agrees that the Company will at all times have authorized and
reserved a sufficient number of shares of Warrant Stock to provide for the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
6. ADJUSTMENTS TO WARRANT
(a) If the Company shall issue any shares of its Warrant Stock as a
stock dividend or subdivide the number of outstanding shares of Warrant Stock
into a greater number of shares, then, in either such case, the Exercise Price
in effect before such dividend or subdivision shall be proportionately reduced
and the number of shares of Warrant Stock at that time purchasable
3.
<PAGE> 4
pursuant to this Warrant shall be proportionately increased; and, conversely, if
the Company shall decrease the number of outstanding shares of Warrant Stock by
combining such shares into a smaller number of shares, then the Exercise Price
in effect before such combination shall be proportionately increased and the
number of shares of Warrant Stock at that time purchasable pursuant to this
Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. When any adjustment is required to
be made in the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 6, the number of shares
of Warrant Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed
to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment,
multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment,
by (ii) the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
(b) In case of any reclassification or change of the outstanding
securities of the Company or of any reorganization of the Company (or any other
corporation the stock or securities of which are at the time receivable upon the
exercise of this Warrant) or any similar corporate reorganization on or after
the date hereof (excluding a Reorganization, as defined in Section 1), then and
in each such case the Holder, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the
consummation of such reclassification, change, reorganization, merger or
conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other
securities and property receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such
consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which the Holder
would have been entitled upon such consummation if the Holder had exercised this
Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided
in Section 6(a); and in each such case, the terms of this Section 6 shall be
applicable to the shares of stock or other securities properly receivable upon
the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation.
(c) When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price,
the Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a certificate setting forth the
Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the
facts requiring such adjustment. Such certificate shall also set forth the kind
and amount of stock or other securities or property into which this Warrant
shall be exercisable following the occurrence of any of the events specified in
Section 6(a) or (b) above.
(d) In order to avoid doubt, it is acknowledged that the Holder shall
be entitled to the benefit of all adjustments in the number of shares of Common
Stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Stock of the
Company which occur prior to the exercise of this Warrant, including without
limitation, any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion as a result of a dilutive issuance of capital stock.
7. FRACTIONAL SHARES
No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.
In lieu of fractional shares, the Company shall pay the Holder a sum in cash
equal to the fair market value of the fractional shares (as determined by the
Company's Board of Directors) on the date of exercise.

<PAGE> 7
provided that in each case the transferee will be subject to the terms of this
Agreement to the same extent as if he or she were an original Holder hereunder.

qualification or legend.
(d) Any legend endorsed on an instrument pursuant to applicable
state securities laws and the stop-transfer instructions with respect to such

2.2 DEMAND REGISTRATION
(a) Subject to the conditions of this Section 2.2, if the Company
shall receive a written request from the Initiating Holders that the Company
file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the registration
of at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the Registrable Securities held by such
Initiating Holders and having an aggregate offering price to the public in
excess of five million dollars ($5,000,000) (a "Qualified Public Offering"),
then the Company shall, within thirty (30) days of the receipt thereof, give
written notice of such request to all Holders and, subject to the limitations of
this Section 2.2, use its best efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, the
registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that the
Holders request to be registered.
(b) 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 2.2 or any request pursuant to Section 2.4 and the Company shall
include such information in the written notice referred to in Section 2.2(a) or
Section 2.4(a), as applicable. In such event, the right of any Holder to include
its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such
Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's
Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by
a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such
4
<PAGE> 8
Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their
securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement
in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such
underwriting by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders (which
underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.2 or Section 2.4, if the
underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors require a limitation of
the number of securities to be underwritten (including Registrable Securities)
then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that
would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares that
may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated to the Holders of such
Registrable Securities on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable
Securities held by all such Holders (including the Initiating Holders but not
including the Founders). Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from
such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration.
(c) The Company shall not be required to effect a registration
pursuant to this Section 2.2:
(i) prior to October 29, 2001;
(ii) after the Company has effected two (2) registrations
pursuant to this Section 2.2, and such registrations have been declared or
ordered effective;
(iii) during the period starting with the date of the
filing of, and ending on the date one hundred eighty (180) days following the
effective date of the registration statement pertaining to the Initial Offering;
provided that the Company makes reasonable good faith efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective;
(iv) if within thirty (30) days of receipt of a written
request from Initiating Holders pursuant to Section 2.2(a), the Company gives
notice to the Holders of the Company's intention to make its Initial Offering
within ninety (90) days; or
(v) if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a
registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2, a certificate signed by the
Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of
Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and
its shareholders for such registration statement to be effected at such time, in
which event the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for one period
of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating
Holders; provided that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the
Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period.
2.3 PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS. The Company shall notify all Holders of
Registrable Securities in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing
of any registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of a public
offering of securities of the Company (including, but not limited to,
registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the
Company, but excluding registration statements relating to employee benefit
plans or with respect to corporate reorganizations or other transactions under
Rule 145 of the Securities Act) and will afford each such Holder an opportunity
to include in such registration statement all or
5
<PAGE> 9
part of such Registrable Securities held by such Holder; provided, however, that
no Holder shall be eligible to so participate in such registration if such
Holder could have sold such Registrable Securities on an unrestricted basis
pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act during the four-week period
immediately preceding the effectiveness of such registration; provided further,
that such participation right shall not be granted to any Holders following the
fifth anniversary of the closing of the Initial Offering. Each Holder desiring
to include in any such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable
Securities held by it shall, within fifteen (15) days after the above-described
notice from the Company, so notify the Company in writing. Such notice shall
state the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities by such
Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in
any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall
nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in
any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed
by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms
and conditions set forth herein.
(a) UNDERWRITING. If the registration statement under which the
Company gives notice under this Section 2.3 is for an underwritten offering, the
Company shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities. In such event,
the right of any such Holder to be included in a registration pursuant to this
Section 2.3 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such
underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in the
underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute
their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters
selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Agreement, if the underwriter determines in good faith that
marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be
underwritten, the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting
shall be allocated, first, to the Company; second, to the Holders who are (x)
Investors, (y) holders of Series B Stock, and (z) Robert J. Lunday, Jr. on a pro
rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by such
Holders and Mr. Lunday; third, to Robert J. Lunday, Jr.; fourth, to Holders who
are Founders (other than Mr. Lunday) on a pro rata basis based on the total
number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders; and fifth, to any other
shareholders of the Company (other than a Holder) on a pro rata basis. No such
reduction shall (i) reduce the securities being offered by the Company for its
own account to be included in the registration and underwriting, or (ii) reduce
the amount of securities of Robert J. Lunday, Jr. and the selling Holders who
are Investors or holders of Series B Stock to below twenty-five percent (25%) of
the total amount of securities to be included in such registration, unless such
offering is the Initial Offering and such registration does not include shares
of any other selling shareholders, in which event any or all of the Registrable
Securities of the Holders (including Mr. Lunday) may be excluded in accordance
with the preceding sentence. In no event will shares of any other selling
shareholder be included in such registration which would reduce the number of
shares which may be included by Holders without the written consent of Holders
of not less than sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Registrable
Securities proposed to be sold in the offering.
(b) RIGHT TO TERMINATE REGISTRATION. The Company shall have the
right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this
Section 2.3 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any
Holder has elected to include securities in
6
<PAGE> 10
such registration. The Registration Expenses of such withdrawn registration
shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.5 hereof.
2.4 FORM S-3 REGISTRATION. In case the Company shall receive from any
Holder or Holders of at least fifteen percent (15%) of the Registrable
Securities a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration
on Form S-3 (or any successor to Form S-3) or any similar short-form
registration statement and any related qualification or compliance with respect
to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders,
the Company will:
(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration,
and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders of Registrable
Securities; and
(b) as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such
qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or
facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder's or
Holders' Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with
all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders
joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within
fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such
registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2.4:
(i) if Form S-3 (or any successor or similar form) is not
available for such offering by the Holders;
(ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any
other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration,
propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an
aggregate price to the public, net of underwriting costs, of less than five
hundred thousand dollars ($500,000);
(iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a
certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors 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 and its shareholders
for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in which event the
Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration
statement for one period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the
request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 2.4; provided, that such
right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in
any twelve (12) month period;
(iv) if the Company has, within the six (6) month period
preceding the date of such request, already effected one (1) registration on
Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 2.4; or
(v) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company
would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to
service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.

<PAGE> 11
(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a Form S-3
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities
so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the
request or requests of the Holders. Subject to Section 2.5 below, all Selling
Expenses incurred in connection with registrations requested pursuant to this
Section 2.4 shall be paid by the selling Holders pro rata in proportion to the
number of shares sold by each, and by the Company, if it participates in such
registration, pro rata in proportion to the number of shares sold by it.
2.5 EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. Except as specifically provided herein,
all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration,
qualification or compliance pursuant to Section 2.2 or any registration under
Section 2.3 or Section 2.4 herein shall be borne by the Company. All Selling
Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations under those sections,
shall be borne by the holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the
basis of the number of shares so registered. The Company shall not, however, be
required to pay for expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to
Section 2.2 or 2.4, the request of which has been subsequently withdrawn by the
Holders requesting such registration unless (a) the withdrawal is based upon
material adverse information concerning the Company of which the Holders
requesting such registration were not aware at the time of such request or (b)
the Holders of a majority of Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right
to one requested registration pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.4, as
applicable, in which event such right shall be forfeited by all Holders. If the
Holders are required to pay the Registration Expenses, such expenses shall be
borne by the holders of securities (including Registrable Securities) requesting
such registration in proportion to the number of shares for which registration
was requested. If the Company is required to pay the Registration Expenses of a
withdrawn offering pursuant to clause (a) above, then the Holders shall not
forfeit their rights pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.4 to a demand
registration.
2.6 OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. Whenever required to effect the
registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously
as reasonably possible:
(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
respect to such Registrable Securities and use all reasonable 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 ninety (90) days or, if earlier,
until the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution related thereto.
(b) Prepare and file with the SEC 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.
(c) Furnish to the Holders such number 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.
8
<PAGE> 12
(d) Use all reasonable 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.
(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(s) 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.
(g) Furnish, at the request of a majority of the Holders
participating in the registration, on the date that such Registrable Securities
are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold
through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold through
underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such
securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated as of 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 and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Holders
requesting registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the
Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter
dated as of 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 and
reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Holders requesting
registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if permitted by
applicable accounting standards, to the Holders requesting registration of
Registrable Securities.
2.7 TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. All registration rights granted
under this Section 2 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect five
(5) years after the date of the Company's Initial Offering. In addition, a
Holder's registration rights shall expire if (a) the Company has completed its
Initial Offering and is subject to the provisions of the Exchange Act, (b) such
Holder (together with its affiliates, partners and former partners) holds less
than one percent (1%) of the Company's outstanding Common Stock (treating all
share of convertible Preferred Stock on an as converted basis) and (c) all
Registrable Securities held by and issuable to such Holder (and its affiliates,
partners and former partners) may be sold under Rule 144 during any ninety (90)
day period.
9
<PAGE> 13
2.8 DELAY OF REGISTRATION; FURNISHING INFORMATION
(a) No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an
injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result
of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or
implementation of this Section 2.
(b) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the
Company to take any action pursuant to Section 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4 that the selling
Holders shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the
Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of
such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of their
Registrable Securities.
(c) The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any
registration requested pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.4 if, due to the
operation of subsection 2.2(b), the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the
registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company's obligation
to initiate such registration as specified in Section 2.2 or Section 2.4,
whichever is applicable.
2.9 INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Securities are
included in a registration statement under Sections 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify
and hold harmless each Holder, the partners, officers, directors and legal
counsel of each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for
such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter
within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any
losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may
become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or
state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements,
omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation") by the Company: (i) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or
(iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act,
the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in
connection with the offering covered by such registration statement; and the
Company will reimburse each such Holder, partner, officer, director, legal
counsel, underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any
such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the
indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.9(a) shall not apply to amounts
paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable in any such case
for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it
arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in
conformity with written
10
<PAGE> 14
information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by
such Holder, partner, officer, director, legal counsel, underwriter or
controlling person of such Holder.
(b) 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 qualifications or compliance is being effected,
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, officers and
legal counsel, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other Holder selling
securities under such registration statement or any of such other Holder's
partners, directors or officers or any person who controls such Holder, against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the
Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter or other
such Holder, or partner, director, officer or controlling person of such other
Holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other
federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in
each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such
Holder under an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be
specifically for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder
will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or
any such director, officer, legal counsel, controlling person, underwriter or
other Holder, or partner, officer, director, legal counsel or controlling person
of such other Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action if it is judicially determined that
there was such a Violation; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement
contained in this Section 2.9(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement
of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is
effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld; provided further, that in no event shall any indemnity
under this Section 2.9 exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such
Holder.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 2.9 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.9, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and, to the extent the
indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall
have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid
by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the
counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual
or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other
party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the
commencement of any such action, if materially prejudicial to its ability to
defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to
the indemnified party under this Section 2.9, but the omission so to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability
that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.9.
11
<PAGE> 15
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.9 is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified
party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to
herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party
thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss,
claim, damage or liability 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 Violation(s) that resulted in such
loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law 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; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a
Holder hereunder exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
(e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section
2.9 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a
registration statement and the termination of this Agreement. No indemnifying
party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the
consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the
giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from
all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
2.10 ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights to cause the Company
to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2 may be assigned by
a Holder to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities which (a)
previously holds Registrable Securities, (b) is a subsidiary, parent, general
partner, limited partner or retired partner of a Holder, or is a Holder's family
member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or (c) acquires at least
Seventy-Five Thousand (75,000) shares of Registrable Securities (as adjusted for
stock splits and combinations); provided, however, (i) the transferor shall,
within ten (10) days after such transfer, furnish to the Company written notice
of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with
respect to which such registration rights are being assigned and (ii) such
transferee shall agree to be subject to all restrictions set forth in this
Agreement.
2.11 AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Any provision of this Section 2
may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in
a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the
written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least sixty-six and
two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding. Any
amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 2.11 shall be
binding upon each Holder and the Company. By acceptance of any benefits under
this Article 2, Holders of Registrable Securities hereby agree to be bound by
the provisions hereunder.
2.12 LIMITATION ON SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATION RIGHTS. After the date of
this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Holders of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Registrable
Securities then outstanding, enter into any agreement with any holder or
prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would
12
<PAGE> 16
allow such holder or prospective holder in any registration filed under this
Section 2, unless under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective
holder may include such securities only to the extent that the inclusion of its
securities will not reduce the amount of Registrable Securities of the Holders
which is included.
2.13 "MARKET STAND-OFF" AGREEMENT. Each Holder hereby agrees that such
Holder shall not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Common Stock (or
other securities) of the Company held by such Holder (other than those included
in the registration) for a period specified by the representative of the
underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company not to exceed
one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of a registration
statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act, provided that all
officers, directors and affiliates of the Company and holders of at least two
percent (2%) of the Company's voting securities enter into similar agreements.
Each Holder agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may
be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter which are consistent
with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. In
addition, if requested by the Company or the representative of the underwriters
of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, each Holder shall provide,
within ten (10) days of such request, such information as may be required by the
Company or such representative in connection with the completion of any public
offering of the Company's securities pursuant to a registration statement filed
under the Securities Act. The obligations described in this Section 2.13 shall
not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form
S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a
registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or
similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Company may impose
stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other
securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said one
hundred eighty (180) day period.
2.14 RULE 144 REPORTING. With a view to making available to the Holders
the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the
sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the
Company agrees to use its best efforts to:
(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms
are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule
promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of
the first registration filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to
the general public;
(b) File with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and
(c) So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish
to such Holder forthwith upon request: a written statement by the Company as to
its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 of the
Securities Act and with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act (at any
time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); a copy of the
most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and such other reports
and documents as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule
or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without
registration.

16
<PAGE> 20
that "commercially reasonable efforts" as used in this Section 3.29 shall not be

entity by consolidation, merger or other reorganization in which the holders of
the Company's outstanding voting stock immediately prior to such transaction
own, immediately after such transaction, securities representing less than fifty
percent (50%) of the voting power of the corporation or other entity surviving
such transaction, provided that this Section 3.11(ii)(b) shall not apply to a
merger effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the
Company (a "Change in Control").
3.13 VISITATION RIGHTS. So long as Fidelity Investors II Limited
Partnership and FTT Ventures Inc. or their affiliates (collectively, "Fidelity")
shall own 666,667 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the Company shall allow
one representative designated by Fidelity to attend all meetings of the
Company's Board of Directors in a nonvoting capacity, and in connection
therewith, the Company shall give such representative copies of all notices,
minutes, consents and other materials, financial or otherwise, which the Company
provides to its Board of Directors; provided, however, that the Company reserves
the right to exclude such representative from access to any material or meeting
or portion thereof if the Company believes upon advice of counsel that such
exclusion is reasonably necessary to preserve the attorney-client privilege, to
protect highly confidential proprietary information or for other similar
reasons.
SECTION 4 RIGHT TO MAINTAIN INTEREST
4.1 SUBSEQUENT OFFERINGS. Each Investor and holder of Series B Stock
shall have a right to purchase its Pro Rata Share (as defined herein) of all
Equity Securities, as defined below, that the Company may, from time to time,
propose to sell and issue after the date of this Agreement, other than the
Equity Securities excluded by Section 4.6 hereof. The Company may, at its
election, sell such Investor and holder of Series B Stock its Pro Rata Amount of
Equity Securities at the initial closing of the sale of Equity Securities or at
a subsequent closing of which shall take place within ninety (90) days of the
initial closing. The Pro Rata Share of an Investor and holder of Series B Stock
shall be equal to the ratio of (a) the number of shares of the Company's Common
Stock (including all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion
of the Preferred Stock) which such Investor and holder of Series B Stock is
deemed to hold immediately prior to the issuance of such Equity Securities to
(b) the total number of shares of the Company's outstanding Common Stock
(including all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock) immediately prior to the issuance of the Equity Securities. The
term "Equity Securities" shall mean (i) any Common Stock, Preferred Stock or
other security of the Company, (ii) any security convertible, with or without
consideration, into any Common Stock, Preferred Stock or other security
(including any option to purchase such a convertible security), (iii) any
security carrying any warrant or right to
17
<PAGE> 21
subscribe to or purchase any Common Stock, Preferred Stock or other security or
(iv) any such warrant or right.
4.2 EXERCISE OF RIGHTS. If the Company proposes to issue any Equity
Securities, it shall give each Investor and holder of Series B Stock written
notice before such issuance or within ten (10) days thereafter, describing the
type of Equity Securities, the price and number of shares and the general terms
and conditions upon which the Company proposes to issue or has issued the same.
Each Investor and holder of Series B Stock shall have thirty (30) days from the
giving of such notice to agree to purchase up to the amount of Equity Securities
equal to Pro Rata Share of such Equity Securities of the Investor and holder of
Series B Stock for the price and upon the general terms and conditions specified
in the notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the
quantity of Equity Securities to be purchased. Any such purchase shall occur at
the initial closing of the sale of Equity Securities or, at the Company's
election, at a subsequent closing within ninety (90) days of the initial
closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to
offer or sell such Equity Securities to any Investor and holder of Series B
Stock who would cause the Company to be in violation of applicable federal
securities laws by virtue of such offer or sale.
4.3 ISSUANCE OF EQUITY SECURITIES TO OTHER PERSONS. If not all of the
Investors and holders of Series B Stock elect to purchase their Pro Rata Share
of the Equity Securities, then the Company shall promptly notify in writing the
Investors and holders of Series B Stock who do so elect and shall offer such
Investors and holders of Series B Stock the right to acquire such unsubscribed
shares. Each Investor and holder of Series B Stock shall have fifteen (15) days
after receipt of such notice to notify the Company of its election to purchase
all or a portion thereof of the unsubscribed shares. If the Investors and
holders of Series B Stock fail to exercise in full the right to maintain
interest within said forty-five (45) day period set forth in Section 4.2 and
4.3, the Company shall have ninety (90) days thereafter to sell the Equity
Securities in respect of which the rights of the Investors and holders of Series
B Stock were not exercised, at a price and upon general terms and conditions no
more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Company's notice
to the Investors and holders of Series B Stock pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof.
If the Company has not sold such Equity Securities within ninety (90) days of
the notice provided pursuant to Section 4.2, the Company shall not thereafter
issue or sell any Equity Securities without first offering such securities to
the Investors and holders of Series B Stock in the manner provided above.
4.4 TERMINATION OF RIGHTS TO MAINTAIN INTEREST. The rights to maintain
interest established by this Section 4 shall not apply to, and shall terminate
upon (i) the effective date of the registration statement pertaining to the
Initial Offering or (ii) a Change in Control.
4.5 TRANSFER OF RIGHTS TO MAINTAIN INTEREST. The rights to maintain
interest of each Investor and holder of Series B Stock under this Section 4 may
be transferred to the same parties, subject to the same restrictions as any
transfer of registration rights pursuant to Section 2.10.
4.6 EXCLUDED SECURITIES. The rights to maintain interest established by
this Section 4 shall have no application to any of the following Equity
Securities:
18
<PAGE> 22
(a) shares of Common Stock (and/or options, warrants or other
Common Stock purchase rights issued pursuant to such options, warrants or other
rights) issued or to be issued to employees, officers or directors of, or
consultants or advisors to the Company or any subsidiary, pursuant to stock
purchase or stock option plans or other arrangements that are approved by a
majority of the entire Board of Directors;
(b) stock issued pursuant to any rights or agreements outstanding
as of the date of this Agreement, options and warrants outstanding as of the
date of this Agreement; and stock issued pursuant to any such rights or
agreements granted after the date of this Agreement, provided that the rights to
maintain interest established by this Section 4 applied with respect to the
initial sale or grant by the Company of such rights or agreements;
(c) capital stock or warrants or options to purchase capital
stock issued in connection with bona fide acquisitions, mergers or similar
transactions, the terms of which are approved by a majority of the entire Board
of Directors of the Corporation;
(d) shares of Common Stock issued in connection with any stock
split, stock dividend or recapitalization by the Company;
(e) shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Shares;
(f) capital stock, or options or warrants to purchase capital
stock, issued to financial institutions or lessors in connection with commercial
credit arrangements, equipment financings or any similar transactions approved
by a majority of the entire Board of Directors; and
(g) shares of Common Stock issued in a public offering prior to
or in connection with which all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock will be converted to
Common Stock.

INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES, INC.
SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT
THIS SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made and entered into
as of October 1, 1997, by and among ANTHONY C. NAUGHTIN, PAUL E. MCBRIDE,
CHRISTOPHER D. WHEELER, JAMES BOCINSKY, OPHIR RONEN, TIM HINDERLITER, JON KIRK
and LORRAINE PETRIE (collectively, the "Founders"), ROBERT J. LUNDAY, JR.
("Lunday") and InterNAP CORPORATION, a Washington corporation (the "Company").
Lunday and the Founders are sometimes referred to herein, collectively, as
"Shareholders" or, individually as "Shareholder."
RECITALS
A. On its formation, the Company issued 3,333,333 shares of its common
stock ("Common Stock") to the Founders and 6,666,667 shares of its Series A
Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred Stock") to Lunday in exchange for the
assignment by the Founders and Lunday of all of their ownership interests in
InterNAP Network Services, L.L.C. (the "LLC").
B. In conjunction with the dissolution of the LLC, the Shareholders
desire to enter into an agreement pertaining to the Common Stock, the Series A
Preferred Stock and certain other matters.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above, the mutual promises and
covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the
parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Restriction on Transfer of Shares. Each Shareholder acknowledges
and agrees that the Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock owned by such
Shareholder is subject to restrictions on transfer and a right of first refusal
in favor of the Company and the other Shareholders, as set forth in the Bylaws
of the Company.
2. Options on Founders' Shares.
(a) In the event that a Founder resigns from employment by the
Company or is terminated by the Company for cause (the "Departing Founder")
before May 1, 1999 (the "Vesting Date"), then the other Founders (the "Remaining
Founders") shall have the option to purchase, and the Departing Founder shall be
obligated to sell, the Unvested Shares of the Departing Founder at a price of
$0.0006 per share. For purposes of this Agreement, a termination of employment
by reason of (i) the breach by a Founder of such Founder's Employee
Confidentiality, Nonraiding and Noncompetition Agreement, (ii) the malfeasance
of willful misconduct of a Founder, or (iii) the commission by a Founder of a
crime involving moral turpitude, shall be deemed a termination "for cause." The
foregoing option may be exercised by the Remaining Founders by written notice to
the Departing Founder given within thirty (30) days of the termination of the
Departing Founder's employment. If there is more than one Remaining Founder who
desires to purchase such Unvested
-1-
<PAGE> 2
Shares, the Remaining Founders may divide the Unvested Shares in any manner to
which they all agree. In the absence of unanimous agreement, the Unvested
Shares shall be divided among the Remaining Founders in proportion to their
relative shareholdings, as set forth on Exhibit A attached and made a part
hereof.
(b) For purposes of subsection (a) above, the shares of Common
Stock issued to a Founder on the formation of the Company shall be deemed
"Unvested Shares" on the termination of such Founder's employment to the extent
such shares are not fully vested as herein provided. As of October 1, 1997,
47.09% of the shares of Common Stock owned by each Founder shall be deemed
fully vested. An additional 2.77% of such shares shall become fully vested on
the last day of each calendar month commencing October 31, 1997 and continuing
until the Vesting Date, at which time all such shares shall be deemed fully
vested.
(c) The provisions of this Section 2 shall only apply to Common
Stock currently owned by a Founder. Any additional shares of capital stock
acquired hereafter by any Founder, including shares purchased pursuant to this
Section, shall be free from the application of this Section.
3. Options on Lunday's Shares. Lunday hereby grants to each Founder the
option to purchase his or her Pro Rata Share of 5,000,000 of the 6,666,667
shares of Series B Preferred Stock (or the Common Stock into which such shares
have been converted, appropriately adjusted for stock splits, recapitalizations,
and the like) owned by Lunday at the date hereof at a price of $1.26 per share;
provided that such option shall terminate as to any Founder on the earlier to
occur of: (a) the voluntary resignation of such Founder from employment by the
Company; (b) the termination of employment of such Founder by the Company for
cause; (c) the date 90 days following the termination of such Founder's
employment for any reason other than those specified in (a) and (b) above,
including death, disability or termination by the Company without cause; and (d)
April 30, 2001. For purposes of this Section, a Founder's "Pro Rata Share" shall
be equal to the product obtained by multiplying 5,000,000 by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Founder
on the date hereof, and the denominator of which is total number of shares of
Common Stock owned on the date hereof by all Founders who are then eligible to
purchase pursuant hereto. The full purchase price for each shares shall be
tendered to Lunday upon exercise of the Option, unless the parties otherwise
agree.
4. Notices. Any notice, demand, or communication required or permitted
to be given under this Agreement shall be delivered personally to the party to
whom directed, or mailed by registered or certified mail, postage and charges
prepaid, to the addresses set forth below:

"THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS
AND CONDITIONS OF A SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT WHICH PLACES CERTAIN
RESTRICTIONS ON THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY. ANY PERSON ACCEPTING
ANY INTEREST IN SUCH SHARES SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL
BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH AGREEMENT. A COPY OF SUCH
SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED TO THE RECORD HOLDER OF THIS
CERTIFICATE WITHOUT CHARGE UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE COMPANY AT ITS
PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS.
(b) The Company agrees that, during the term of this Agreement, it
will not remove, and will not permit to be removed (upon registration of
transfer, reissuance of otherwise), the Legend from any such certificate and
will place or cause to be placed the Legend on any new certificate issued to
represent Shares theretofore represented by a certificate carrying the Legend.
6. Successors. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the
successors in interest to any of the Shareholders. The Company shall not permit
the transfer of any of the Shares on its books or issue a new certificate
representing any of the Shares unless and until the person to whom such security
is to be transferred shall have executed a written agreement, substantially in
the form of this Agreement, pursuant to which such person becomes a party to
this Agreement and agrees to be bound by all provisions hereof as if such person
were a Shareholder.
7. Specific Performance. The parties hereto hereby declare that it is
impossible to measure in money the damages which will accrue to a party hereto
or to their heirs, personal representatives, or assigns by reason of a failure
to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement and agree that the terms
of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable. If any party hereto or his
heirs, personal representatives, or assigns institutes any action or proceeding
to specifically enforce the provisions hereof, any person against whom such
action or proceeding is brought hereby waives the claim or defense therein that
such party or such personal representative has an adequate remedy at law, and
such person shall not offer in any such action or proceeding the claim or
defense that such remedy at law exists.
8. Governing Law. This Agreement, and the rights of the parties hereto,
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Washington as such laws apply to agreements among Washington residents made and
to be performed entirely within the State of Washington.
9. Amendment. This Amendment may be amended only by an instrument in
writing signed by the parties hereto.
10. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid or unenforceable, the validity and enforceability of the remaining
provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors,
assigns, administrators, executors and other legal representatives.
12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, all of which will be deemed an original but all of which together
shall constitute one and the same agreement.
13. Waiver. No waivers of any breach of this Agreement extended by any
party hereto to any other party shall be construed as a waiver of any rights or
remedies of any other party hereto or with respect to any subsequent breach.
14. Attorneys' Fees. In the event that any suit or action is instituted
to enforce any provision in this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to all costs and expenses of maintaining such suit or action,
including reasonable attorneys' fees.
15. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Exhibit hereto constitute
the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard
to the subjects hereof and thereof and no party shall be liable or bound to any
other in any manner by any representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements except as specifically set forth herein and therein.
