<P align="center" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Amendment No.&nbsp;4 to<BR>
Reseller/Integration Agreement</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This Amendment No.&nbsp;4 (&#147;Amendment&#148;) is made as of November&nbsp;1, 2004 (&#147;Effective Date&#148;) by and
between MCI WorldCom Network Services, Inc., f/k/a MCI Telecommunication Corporation (&#147;MCI&#148;), and
Visual Networks, Inc. (&#147;Visual&#148;).


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A.&nbsp;MCI and Visual have entered into that certain Reseller/Integration Agreement dated as of
August&nbsp;29, 1997 (&#147;Agreement&#148;).


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B.&nbsp;MCI and Visual are in the process of negotiating a new agreement (&#147;New Agreement&#148;) that
will govern resales, on both a resale and managed services basis, of Visual&#146;s products and services
which such agreement will supersede the Agreement in its entirety.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C.&nbsp;To facilitate the addition of Visual&#146;s Uptime Select product line to the Products and
Services that MCI may resell under the Agreement pending the completion of negotiations of the New
Agreement, the parties desire to amend the Agreement as set forth in this Amendment.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accordingly, the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.&nbsp;<U>Definitions</U>. Unless otherwise defined in this Amendment, capitalized terms shall
have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.&nbsp;<U>Addition of Uptime Select Product Line</U>. During the term of this Amendment and
subject to the terms of the Agreement, MCI shall have the non-exclusive, non-transferable,
revocable and limited right to resell, in the Territory, Visual&#146;s UpTime Select product line as
part of the Products and Services. The prices for such Visual&#146;s UpTime Select Products and
Services shall be as set forth in Visual&#146;s published price list (&#147;Price List&#148;), less the discounts
set forth in Exhibit&nbsp;A. Visual may amend the Price List, in its sole discretion, at any time and
from time to time. Visual shall provide to MCI a copy of the Price List in effect as of the
Effective Date.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.&nbsp;<U>Maintenance Fees</U>.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.1
<U>Maintenance Fees Applicable From April&nbsp;15, 2005 Through
December&nbsp;31, 2005</U>. [***]



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.2 <U>Maintenance Fees After December&nbsp;31, 2005</U>. &#091;***&#093;



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.&nbsp;<U>Term and Termination</U>. This Amendment shall be effective as of the Effective Date
and shall expire on the earlier of (a)&nbsp;execution by MCI and Visual of the New Agreement and (b)
December&nbsp;31, 2005 unless terminated earlier by either party in accordance with its terms. Either
party may terminate this Amendment by providing ten days prior written notice of termination to the
other.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.&nbsp;<U>No Other Amendments</U>. Except as specifically amended herein, the Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect as written. Without derogating from the foregoing, the parties
acknowledge that (a)&nbsp;the parties signed Amendment No.&nbsp;4 to Reseller/Integration Agreement on March
21, 2005 with incorrect maintenance pricing and intend for this Amendment to supersede the March&nbsp;21
version to correct the error and (b)&nbsp;this Amendment shall have no effect on that certain letter
dated August&nbsp;17, 2004 from Visual to MCI regarding the purchasing of discontinued Visual UpTime
ASEs.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.&nbsp;<U>Governing Law</U>. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to applicable principles of conflicts
of laws.
