Stockholders have entered into an agreement (the "</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Stock Purchase Agreement</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>") with SOFTBANK America,&nbsp;Inc.
("SOFTBANK") pursuant to which SOFTBANK has agreed to sell to the Stockholders shares of the Company's Common Stock (together with the associated preferred share purchase rights) held by SOFTBANK
during the period beginning on the effective date of the Stock Purchase Agreement and ending on August&nbsp;21, 2002 (the "</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Shares</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>"). </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company has had no involvement in the sale of the Shares; however, in order to facilitate an orderly trading market for its Common Stock, the Company has agreed to
grant certain registration rights to the Stockholders with respect to the Shares. </FONT></P>

borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration begun pursuant to this Section&nbsp;1.2 if the registration request is
subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holder, unless, at the time of such withdrawal, the Holder has learned of a material adverse change in the condition of the Company from that known to the
Holder at the time of its request and has withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness upon obtaining knowledge of such material adverse change. The Company shall not be required to pay any
underwriters' or brokers' fees, discounts or commissions relating to the Registrable Securities, or the fees or expenses of separate counsel to the Holder(s). </FONT></P>

third parties, other than to directors, officers, employees, consultants and agents of the Company, including the Company's counsel and transfer agent, who have the need to know of the existence of
the Notice of Sale. (If the Notice of Sale is actually received in a day other than a business day, it will be deemed received on the next business day; the date on which the Notice of Sale is
received is referred to as the "</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Notice Date</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>;" the time on which the Notice of Sale is received is referred to as the "</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Notice
Time</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>".) Upon receiving a Notice of Sale from a Holder, the Company will notify the Holder as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than the same time as the
Notice Time on the next business day following the Notice Date) whether (i)&nbsp;the Company believes that the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, as then amended or supplemented, is
available for immediate use, whereupon the Company shall so notify the Holder(s) and the Holder(s) will have a period of five (5)&nbsp;days following such notification in which to sell its
Registrable Securities or (ii)&nbsp;the Company believes that it is necessary or appropriate to file&nbsp;a supplement or file&nbsp;a post-effective amendment to the registration
statement or the prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other report or document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities, the
prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (a "</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Prospectus
Update</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>"). If the Company notifies the Holder(s) that it believes it may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate a Prospectus Update and the Company is not exercising any
right it may have under Section&nbsp;1.2(e) to postpone the Prospectus Update, the Company will thereupon use all reasonable efforts to effectuate such Prospectus Update as soon as reasonably
possible, and not later than three (3)&nbsp;business days after the Notice of Sale is received by the Company, except that the Company will have up to an additional two (2)&nbsp;business days to
effectuate such Prospectus Update if, because of the particular circumstances involved, the Company could not effectuate the Prospectus Update earlier, despite all reasonable diligence. As soon as the
Prospectus Update has been effectuated, the Company will notify each Holder who has submitted a Notice of Sale that the prospectus is available for use, whereupon each such Holder will have a period
of five (5)&nbsp;days in which to sell its Registrable Securities. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company will be entitled to postpone, for the minimum period provided below, the filing of any Prospectus Update otherwise required to be prepared and filed by it
pursuant hereto if, at the time it receives a Notice of Sale, the Company determines in its reasonable judgment, after consultation with counsel, that (i)&nbsp;the Company would be required to
prepare and file any financial statements (other than those it customarily prepares or before it customarily files such financial statements), (ii)&nbsp;the Company would be required to file an
amendment to the registration statement to describe facts or events which individually or in the aggregate represent a fundamental change in the information contained in the registration statement
within the meaning of Item 512 of Regulation&nbsp;S-K promulgated under the Securities Act, or (iii)&nbsp;the filing would require the premature announcement of any financing,
acquisition, corporate reorganization, contract or other material corporate transaction or development involving the Company such as the Company reasonably determines would be materially detrimental
to the interests of the Company and its Stockholders. The postponement will be for the minimum period reasonably required for the Company to prepare and file the necessary documents, in the case of a
postponement pursuant to (i)&nbsp;or (ii)&nbsp;above, or the minimum period reasonably required to avoid such premature disclosure, in the case of (iii)&nbsp;above, and which period will not be
in excess of thirty (30)&nbsp;days unless, because of the unusual nature of the particular circumstances, it is necessary that the period extend beyond thirty (30)&nbsp;days. </FONT></P>

Notice of Sale only if in good faith it actually intends to sell the Registrable Securities within such five (5)&nbsp;day period and with the understanding that a Notice of Sale is to be made only
on the occasion that the sale of Registrable Securities is actually contemplated and not on a continual basis. A Holder will notify the Company by facsimile transmission promptly after it has
completed or otherwise ceased sales following submission of a Notice of Sale. The Holder(s) will provide to the Company all information in the Holder(s)' possession or control, and will take all
actions, as may be required in order to permit the Company to comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws. </FONT></P>
