Each proposal is described in more detail in this Proxy Statement.

                   VOTING RIGHTS AND SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

  The Company's Common Stock is the only type of security entitled to vote at
the Annual Meeting. On August 31, 2000, the record date for determination of
stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, there were approximately
86,180,198 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Each stockholder of record on
August 31, 2000 is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held by
such stockholder on August 31, 2000. All share numbers in this Proxy Statement
(including the number of shares outstanding on the record date for the Annual
Meeting) have been adjusted to reflect the two-for-one stock split effected by
the Company on February 24, 2000 (the "2000 Stock Split"). All votes will be
tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting, who will
separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker
non-votes.

Quorum Required

  The Company's bylaws provide that the holders of a majority of the Company's
Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual
Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum
for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker
non-votes will be counted as present for the purpose of determining the
presence of a quorum.

Votes Required

  Proposal 1. Directors are elected by a plurality of the affirmative votes
cast by those shares present in person, or represented by proxy, and entitled
to vote at the Annual Meeting. The five (5) nominees for director receiving
the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected. Abstentions and
broker non-votes will not be counted toward a nominee's total.

  Proposal 2. Ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the
Company's independent public accountants for the fiscal year ending December
31, 2000 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares present
in person, or represented by proxy, and cast either affirmatively or
negatively at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be
counted as having been voted on the proposal.

Proxies

  Whether or not you are able to attend the Company's Annual Meeting, you are
urged to complete and return the enclosed proxy, which is solicited by the
Company's Board of Directors and which will be voted as you direct on your
proxy when properly completed. In the event no directions are specified, such
proxies will be voted FOR the Nominees of the Board of Directors (as set forth
in Proposal 1), FOR Proposal 2, and in the discretion of the proxy holders as
to other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting. You may
also revoke or change your proxy at any time before the Annual Meeting. To do
this, send a written notice of revocation or another signed proxy with a later
date to the Secretary of the Company at the Company's principal executive
offices before the beginning of the Annual Meeting. You may also automatically
revoke your proxy by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. All
shares represented by a valid proxy received prior to the Annual Meeting will
be voted.

Solicitation of Proxies

  The Company will bear the entire cost of solicitation, including the
preparation, assembly, printing, and mailing of this Proxy Statement, the
proxy, and any additional soliciting material furnished to stockholders.
Copies of solicitation material will be furnished to brokerage houses,
fiduciaries, and custodians holding shares in their names that are
beneficially owned by others so that they may forward this solicitation
material to such beneficial owners. In addition, the Company may reimburse
such persons for their costs of forwarding the solicitation material to such
beneficial owners. The original solicitation of proxies by mail may be
supplemented by solicitation by telephone, telegram, or other means by
directors, officers, employees, or at the Company's request, MacKenzie
Partners, Inc., a professional proxy solicitation firm. No additional
compensation will be paid to directors, officers or employees for such
services, but MacKenzie Partners, Inc. will be paid its customary fee,
estimated to be about $5,000, if it renders solicitation services.

Board of Directors Meetings and Committees

  During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, the Board of Directors held
eight (8) meetings and acted by written consent in lieu of a meeting on six
(6) occasions. For the fiscal year, each of the directors during the term of
their tenure attended or participated in at least 75% of the aggregate of (i)

Directors and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the
Board of Directors on which each such director served. The Board of Directors
has (2) standing committees: the Audit Committee and the Compensation
Committee.

  The Audit Committee was created on July 22, 1999 and became effective on the
effective date of the Company's initial public offering of its securities,
October 26, 1999. The Audit Committee reviews, acts on and reports to the
Board of Directors with respect to various auditing and accounting matters,
including the selection of the Company's accountants, the scope of the annual
audits, fees to be paid to the Company's accountants, the performance of the
Company's accountants and the accounting practices of the Company. The members
of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Fredrickson and Gupta. During the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1999, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors
held no meetings.

  The Compensation Committee was created on July 22, 1999 and became effective

securities, October 26, 1999. The Compensation Committee reviews the
performance of the executive officers of the Company, establishes compensation
programs for the officers, and reviews the compensation programs for other key
employees, including salary and cash bonus levels and option grants under the
1995 Stock Plan, 1999 Equity Incentive Plan and 1999 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan. The members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Fredrickson and

Compensation of Directors

  Except for grants of stock options, directors of the Company generally do

does not pay compensation for committee participation or special assignments
of the Board of Directors. Non-employee directors are eligible to receive
options under the Company's 1999 Non-Employee Directors Option Plan
("Directors Plan"). Each individual who first joins the Company's Board of
Directors as a non-employee director after the effective date of the Company's
initial public offering will receive at that time a fully vested option for
30,000 shares of the Company's common stock. In addition, at each of the
Company's annual stockholders' meetings, beginning in 2000, each non-employee
director who will continue to be a director after that meeting will
automatically be granted at that meeting a fully vested option for 10,000
shares of the Company's common stock. However, any non-employee director who
receives an option for 30,000 shares under this Directors Plan will first
become eligible to receive the annual option for 10,000 shares at the annual
meeting that occurs during the calendar year following the year in which he
received the option for 30,000 shares.

        SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

  The following table sets forth, as of July 31, 2000, certain information
with respect to shares beneficially owned by (i) each person who is known by
the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the
Company's outstanding shares of common stock, (ii) each of the Company's
directors and the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table
and (iii) all current directors and executive officers as a group. Beneficial
ownership has been determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange
Act. Under this rule, certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by
more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the
power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be
beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire shares
(for example, upon exercise of an option or warrant) within sixty (60) days of
the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage
ownership of any person, the amount of shares is deemed to include the amount
of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason
of such acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares
of any person as shown in the following table does not necessarily reflect the
person's actual voting power at any particular date.

               COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

  The members of the Board of Directors, the executive officers of the Company
and persons who hold more than 10% of the Company's outstanding common stock
("Section 16 Insider") are subject to the reporting requirements of Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which require them
to file reports with respect to their ownership of the Company's common stock
and their transactions in such common stock. Based upon (i) the copies of
Section 16(a) reports that the Company received from such persons for their
1999 fiscal year transactions in the common stock and their common stock
holdings and (ii) the written representations received from one or more of
such persons that no annual Form 5 reports were required to be filed by them
for the 1999 fiscal year, the Company believes that all reporting requirements
under Section 16(a) for such fiscal year were met in a timely manner by its
executive officers, Board members and greater than ten-percent stockholders,
except that the delivery service that was hired by the Company to file the
Form 3s, through an administrative error, filed each Form 3 for each Section
16 Insider one day late; the Form 3s for Ann Cowan and Nicholas Garnett were
filed late; and one Form 4 for Duncan Davidson reporting Mr. Davidson's
purchase of directed shares in the Company's initial public offering was filed
late.

  During 1999, no options or stock appreciation rights were granted to the
Company's chief executive officer and the Company's four other highest-paid
executive officers.

  The table below presents for the Company's chief executive officer and the
Company's four other highest-paid executive officers any options exercised
during 1999 and the value realized from that exercise. It also presents the
number and value of shares underlying unexercised options that were held by
these executive officers as of December 31, 1999. No stock appreciation rights
were exercised by these executive officers in 1999, and no stock appreciation
rights were outstanding at the end of that year.

  Upon the completion of six months of service, 12.5% of the option shares
listed in the table below became vested. Upon the completion of each of the
next 42 months of service, an additional 1/48th of the option shares become
vested. The Company's Board of Directors may provide for the options to become
immediately exercisable; in that case, any unvested shares that are purchased
by a holder of an option may be repurchased by the Company at the original
exercise price paid per share if the option holder ceases service with the
Company before vesting in these shares.

  The figures in the value of unexercised in-the-money options at fiscal year-
end column are based on the fair market value of the Company's common stock at
the end of 1999, less the exercise price payable for these shares. The fair
market value for the Company's common stock at the end of 1999 was $58.81 per
share.

Employment Agreements, Change of Control Arrangements and Severance Agreements

  None of the Company's executive officers have employment agreements with the
Company, and their employment may be terminated at any time at the discretion
of the Board of Directors.

  Joseph W. Jennings, the Company's former senior vice president, marketing,
received option grants for 640,000 shares that provided that upon a change in
control transaction, the vesting of the option would accelerate and 50% of the
then unvested option shares would become vested. In August 2000, Mr. Jennings'
employment with the Company terminated and as a result of this termination,
this change in control provision is no longer effective. Duncan M. Davidson,
the Company's senior vice president, business development, has received option
grants for 640,000 shares that provide that upon a change in control
transaction, the vesting of the option will accelerate and 100% of the then
unvested option shares will become vested. Edmund J. Fish, the Company's
executive vice president and chief business officer, has received option
grants for 86,667 shares that provide that upon a change in control
transaction, the vesting of the option will accelerate and 100% of the then
unvested option shares will become vested. In addition, two of the Company's
other executive officers who are not among the Company's four highest-paid
executive officers during 1999 were also granted options that provide that
upon a change in control transaction, the vesting of the options will
accelerate and 50% and 100%, respectively, of the then unvested option shares
will become vested.

  If a change in control of the Company occurs, an option or other award under
the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan will become fully exercisable and fully vested
if the option or award is not assumed by the surviving corporation or its
parent or if the surviving corporation or its parent does not substitute
comparable awards for the awards granted under the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan.

  Under the Company's 1995 Stock Plan, upon a merger or asset sale, if the
options or stock purchase rights are not assumed by the surviving corporation
or its parent or subsidiary or if the surviving corporation or its parent or
subsidiary does not substitute comparable awards for the options or stock
purchase rights, then the options and stock purchase rights will terminate.

  Erwin N. Lenowitz, the Company's vice chairman of the board and chief
financial officer, separated from the Company as of May 30, 2000. In
connection with Mr. Lenowitz's separation, the Company entered into an
agreement with Mr. Lenowitz, dated March 8, 2000, pursuant to which he was
given certain benefits. These

                                      11
<PAGE>

benefits included: permitting Mr. Lenowitz to sell up to 150,000 of his shares
of the Company's common stock and each of Mr. Lenowitz's children to sell up
to 30,000 shares of the Company's common stock in the Company's secondary
public offering; and releasing all shares of the Company's common stock held
by Mr. Lenowitz and up to 30,000 shares held by each of his children from the
market stand-off provision with the consent of the underwriters of the
Company's secondary public offering. In consideration for these benefits, Mr.
Lenowitz agreed to remain with the Company until the earlier of the finding of
a suitable replacement or May 30, 2000.

                              COMPENSATION REPORT

  The Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the
"Compensation Committee" or the "Committee") was formed on July 22, 1999. The
charter for the Committee provides that it has the exclusive authority to
establish the level of base salary payable to the chief executive officer
("CEO") and certain other executive officers of the Company and to administer
the Company's 1999 Equity Incentive Plan and 1999 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan. In addition, the Committee has the responsibility for approving the
individual bonus programs to be in effect for the CEO and certain other
executive officers and other key employees each fiscal year. However, during
fiscal 1999, the Board made the decisions regarding executive compensation,
including option grants to its executive officers, because the Committee did
not become effective until October 26, 1999.

  For the 1999 fiscal year, the process utilized by the Board in determining
executive officer compensation levels was based on the subjective judgment of
the Board. Among the factors considered by the Board were the recommendations
of the CEO with respect to the compensation of the Company's key executive
officers. However, the Board made the final compensation decisions concerning
such officers.

  General Compensation Policy. The Board's fundamental policy is to offer the
Company's executive officers competitive compensation opportunities based upon
overall Company performance, their individual contribution to the financial
success of the Company and their personal performance. It is the Board's
objective to have a substantial portion of each officer's compensation
contingent upon the Company's performance, as well as upon his or her own
level of performance. Accordingly, each executive officer's compensation
package consists of: (i) base salary, (ii) discretionary cash bonus and (iii)
long-term stock-based incentive awards.

  Base Salary. The base salary for each executive officer is set on the basis
of general market levels and personal performance. Each individual's base pay
is positioned relative to the total compensation package, including cash
incentives and long-term incentives.

  Annual Cash Bonuses. Each executive officer is eligible for a cash bonus at
the discretion of the Board. The Board considers performance targets
established at the start of the fiscal year and personal objectives
established for each executive. Actual bonuses paid reflect an individual's
accomplishment of both corporate and functional objectives.

  Long-Term Incentive Compensation. During fiscal 1999, the Board, in its
discretion, did not make option grants to any of its executive officers other
than the initial option grant made to Mr. David C. Chance in connection with
the commencement of his employment. Generally, a significant grant is made in
the year that an officer commences employment and no grant is made in the
second year. Thereafter, option grants may be made at varying times and in
varying amounts in the discretion of the Board. Generally, the size of each
grant is set at a level that the Board deems appropriate to create a
meaningful opportunity for stock ownership based upon the individual's
position with the Board, the individual's potential for future responsibility
and promotion, the individual's performance in the recent period and the
number of unvested options held by the individual at the time of the new
grant. The relative weight given to each of these factors will vary from
individual to individual at the Board's discretion.

                                      12
<PAGE>

  Each grant allows the officer to acquire shares of the Company's common
stock at a fixed price per share (the market price on the grant date) over a
specified period of time. The option vests in periodic installments over a two
to four year period, contingent upon the executive officer's continued
employment with the Company. The vesting schedule and the number of shares
granted are established to ensure a meaningful incentive in each year
following the year of grant. Accordingly, the option will provide a return to
the executive officer only if he or she remains in the Company's employ, and
then only if the market price of the Company's common stock appreciates over
the option term.

  CEO Compensation. The annual base salary for Mr. Shear, the Company's Chief
Executive Officer, was not increased by the Board during fiscal 1999, and Mr.
Shear has not been granted any options or given any bonus during fiscal 1999.

  Tax Limitation. Under the Federal tax laws, a publicly held company such as
the Company will not be allowed a federal income tax deduction for
compensation paid to certain executive officers to the extent that
compensation exceeds $1 million per officer in any year. To qualify for an
exemption from the $1 million deduction limitation, the stockholders were
asked to approve a limitation under the Company's 1999 Equity Incentive Plan
on the maximum number of shares of common stock for which any one participant
may be granted stock options per fiscal year. Because this limitation was
adopted, any compensation deemed paid to an executive officer when he
exercises an outstanding option under the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan with an
exercise price equal to the fair market value of the option shares on the
grant date will qualify as performance-based compensation that will not be
subject to the $1 million limitation. Since it is not expected that the cash
compensation to be paid to the Company's executive officers for the 1999
fiscal year will exceed the $1 million limit per officer, the Board will defer
any decision on whether to limit the dollar amount of all other compensation
payable to the Company's executive officers to the $1 million cap.

          COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

  The Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors was created
on July 22, 1999 and became effective on the effective date of the Company's
initial public offering of its securities, October 26, 1999. The members of
the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Frederickson and Gupta. Neither of
these individuals was at any time during 1999, or at any other time, an
officer or employee of the Company. No executive officer of the Company 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 the Company's
Board of Directors or Compensation Committee.

  The Company's Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of its
directors for monetary damages arising from a breach of their fiduciary duty
as directors, except to the extent otherwise required by the Delaware General
Corporation Law. Such limitation of liability does not affect the availability

  The Company's Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify its directors
and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including in
circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under
Delaware law. The Company has also entered into indemnification agreements
with its officers and directors containing provisions that may require the
Company, among other things, to indemnify such officers and directors against
certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as
directors or officers and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of
any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.
