Item 14. Indemnification of Officers and Directors

  Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits indemnification
of officers, directors and other corporate agents under certain circumstances
and subject to certain limitations. PeoplePC's Certificate of Incorporation and
Bylaws provide that PeoplePC shall indemnify its directors, officers, employees
and agents to the full extent permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law,
including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary
under Delaware law. In addition, PeoplePC intends to enter into separate
indemnification agreements with its directors, officers and certain employees
which would require PeoplePC, among other things, to indemnify them against
certain liabilities which may arise by reason of their status or service (other
than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature).
PeoplePC also intends to maintain director and officer liability insurance, if
available on reasonable terms.

  These indemnification provisions and the indemnification agreement to be
entered into between PeoplePC and its officers and directors may be
sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of PeoplePC's officers and
directors for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred)
arising under the Securities Act.

  PeoplePC intends to obtain in conjunction with the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement a policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance
that insures PeoplePC's directors and officers against the cost of defense,
settlement or payment of a judgment under certain circumstances.

  The underwriting agreement filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Registration
Statement provides for indemnification by the underwriters of PeoplePC and its
officers and directors for certain liabilities arising under the Securities
Act, or otherwise.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

  .  In March 1999, PeoplePC sold a total of 31,440,000 shares of common
     stock at a price of $0.00025 per share to 3 investors, consisting of
     Nick Grouf, Max Metral and David Waxman. The aggregate purchase price of
     the sold securities was $7,860. The shares of common stock are not
     convertible into any other security of PeoplePC. These shares were
     exempt from registration under section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

  .  In May 1999, PeoplePC sold a total of 24,000,000 shares of Series A
     preferred stock at a price of $0.125 per share to 15 investors. The
     aggregate purchase price of the sold securities was $3,000,000. Each
     share of Series A preferred stock is convertible into one share of
     common stock at the option of the holder, and will automatically convert
     into common stock at the consummation of PeoplePC's initial public
     offering. These shares were exempt from registration under Rule 506 of
     the Securities Act since the sale was to 15 accredited investors, as
     defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act.

  .  In September 1999, PeoplePC entered into a convertible note agreement
     with SOFTBANK Capital Partners LP. Pursuant to this note financing
     PeoplePC borrowed an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 at 7% annual
     interest accruing as of October 30, 1999. In October 1999, this note
     along with accrued interest converted according to its terms into
     4,587,156 shares of Series B preferred stock. Each share of Series B
     preferred stock is convertible into one share of common stock. The note
     financing was exempt from registration under Rule 506 of the Securities
     Act since the sale was to an accredited investor, as defined in Rule 501
     of the Securities Act.

  .  In October 1999, PeoplePC sold a total of 29,816,514 shares of Series B
     preferred stock at a price of $2.18 per share to 10 investors. The
     aggregate purchase price of the sold securities was $65,000,000. Each
     share of Series B preferred stock is convertible into one share of
     common stock at the option of the holder, and will automatically convert
     into common stock at the consummation of PeoplePC's initial public
     offering. These shares were exempt from registration under Rule 506 of
     the Securities Act since the sale was to 10 accredited investors, as
     defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act.

  .  In January 2000, PeoplePC entered into an agreement with Delta Air
     Lines, Inc. in which PeoplePC agreed to provide up to 75,000 eligible
     Delta employees with its products and services. As an inducement to
     enter into this agreement, PeoplePC issued to Delta a warrant to
     purchase 500,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of
     $6.225 per share. The warrant expires on the earlier of January 2003 or
     six months from the date of this offering. The warrant is exempt from
     registration under Rule 506 of the Securities Act since the sale was to
     an accredited investor, as defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act.

  .  In April 2000, PeoplePC sold a total of 9,468,252 shares of Series C
     preferred stock at a price of $5.246 per share to 26 investors. The
     aggregate purchase price of the sold securities was $49,670,449. Each
     share of Series C preferred stock is convertible into one share of
     common stock at the option of the holder, and will automatically convert
     into common stock at the consummation of PeoplePC's initial public
     offering. Simultaneously with the closing of the Series C financing,
     Ford received the right to purchase 1,905,000 shares of common stock in
     a private placement effected at the closing of this offering at the same
     price per share as this offering. If Ford exercises this right in full,
     Ford will also receive a warrant to purchase 2,857,000 shares of common
     stock exercisable at the same price per share as this offering at any
     time for a period of 200 days following the date of this offering. These
     securities were exempt from registration under Rule 506 of the
     Securities Act since the sale was to 26 accredited investors, as defined
     in Rule 501 of the Securities Act.

 Financial Statement Schedules

  Schedules not listed above have been omitted because the information required
to be set forth therein is not applicable or is shown in the financial
statements or notes thereto.

Item 17. Undertakings

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

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

  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

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

     (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 the time shall be
  deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
