ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

       Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides for the
indemnification of officers, directors, and other corporate agents in terms
sufficiently broad to indemnify such persons under certain circumstances for
liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Article VIII of the Registrant's
Restated Certificate of Incorporation (Exhibit 3(i).3 hereto) and Article 5 of
the Registrant's Bylaws (Exhibit 3(ii).3 hereto) provide for indemnification of
the Registrant's directors, officers, employees and other agents to the extent
and under the circumstances permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
The Registrant has also entered into agreements with our directors and officers
that will require the Registrant, among other things, to indemnify them against
certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as
directors or officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by law.

       The Underwriting Agreement (Exhibit 1.1) provides for indemnification by
the Underwriters of the Registrant, our directors and officers, and by the
Registrant of the Underwriters, for certain liabilities, including liabilities
arising under the Act, and affords certain rights of contribution with respect
thereto.

ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

       (a) On various dates between August 1997 and September 2000, the
Registrant issued 3,406,667 shares of its common stock to 17 employees,
consultants and directors pursuant to the exercise of options granted under its
1997 Stock Plan. The exercise prices per share ranged from $.005 to $2.00, for
an aggregate consideration of $2,014,583. The sales of these securities were
considered to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance
on Rule 701 promulgated under Section 3(b) of the Securities Act, as
transactions under compensatory benefit plans and contracts relating to
compensation as provided under Rule 701.

       (b) In January 1998, the Registrant issued 2,100,000 shares of Series A
convertible preferred stock at $1.56 per share for aggregate consideration of
$3,276,000 and a warrant to purchase 800,000 shares of common stock at a
purchase price of $0.05 per share to Transpac Nominees PTE, Ltd. The warrant was
exercised on May 27, 1999 for aggregate consideration of $40,000. The sale of
these securities

                                      II-1
<PAGE>   4

was considered exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance of
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

       (c) In January 2000, the Registrant issued 2,000,000 shares of Series B
convertible preferred stock at $2.00 per share for aggregate consideration of
$4,000,000 to nine accredited investors, including our affiliates, CPY
California, CPY International, CPY USA I, CPY USA II and Foxconn Holding
Limited. The sale of these securities was considered exempt from registration
under the Securities Act in reliance of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or
Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

       (d) In July and August 2000, the Registrant issued 5,000,000 shares of
Series C convertible preferred stock at $5.50 per share for aggregate
consideration of $27,500,000 to 28 accredited investors, including certain of
our directors and executive officers. The sale of these securities was
considered exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance of
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

       The recipients of the 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 with any distribution thereof, and appropriate
legends were affixed to the share certificates and instruments issued in these
transactions. All recipients had adequate access, through relationships with the
registrant, to information about the registrant.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS

       Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 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 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 Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration
       statement as of the time it was declared effective.

                (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the 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.

                (3) It will provide to the underwriters at the closing(s)
       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.
