                           RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

     This Restricted Stock Agreement (this "Agreement") is entered into as of 22
December 2005 between INTERLAND, INC., a Minnesota corporation (the "Company" or
"Interland") and Robert Friedman ("Executive").

     In  connection  with  Executive's  employment  with the  Company,  and as a
material  inducement for Executive to accept  employment  with the Company,  the
Company has  determined to grant to Executive  SIXTEEN  THOUSAND  SIXTY (16,060)
shares of the common stock, no par value per share, of Interland, subject to the
terms,  conditions  and  restrictions  set forth in this  Agreement (the "Common
Stock").

     Therefore, the parties agree as follows:

     1. Grant of Restricted  Stock.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement,  Interland hereby grants to Executive SIXTEEN THOUSAND SIXTY (16,060)
shares of the common  stock,  no par value per share,  of  Interland,  Inc. (the
"Restricted  Stock"). The interest of Executive in the Restricted Stock is fully
vested as of the date of this  Agreement  and the Company shall have no right to
repurchase with respect to any of the Restricted Stock.

     2. Restrictions on Transfer.

          (a) Lock-Up Period.  Executive hereby agrees that,  except as provided
in Section 2(b), below, he will not, directly or indirectly offer, sell, assign,
transfer,  encumber,  pledge,  contract to sell, grant an option to purchase, or
otherwise dispose of  (collectively,  "Transfer") any of the Restricted Stock or
securities  convertible or  exchangeable  into, or exercisable  for,  Restricted
Stock held of record or  beneficially  owned  (within the  meaning of  Rule13d-3
under the Exchange Act) by him except as follows: (i) one thirty-sixth (1/36) of
the Executive's  Restricted  Shares may be Transferred at any time after January
31,  2006,  (ii)  an  additional  one  thirty-sixth  (1/36)  of the  Executive's
Restricted  Shares may be Transferred at any time following the last day of each
of the next  thirty-four  (34) calendar month thereafter and (iii) the remainder
of the  Executive's  Restricted  Shares  may be  Transferred  at any time  after
December 22, 2008.

          (b) Permitted Transfers.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may
transfer any Restricted Stock or securities  convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable  for Restricted  Stock either during his lifetime or on death (i) by
will or intestacy to his immediate family,  (ii) to a trust the beneficiaries of
which are exclusively the Executive  and/or a member or members of his immediate
family or (iii) to member's of Executive's immediate family; provided,  however,
that prior to any such  transfer  each  transferee  shall  execute an agreement,
reasonably satisfactory to the Company,  pursuant to which each transferee shall
agree to  receive  and hold  such  shares of  Restricted  Stock,  or  securities
convertible  into or  exchangeable  or  exercisable  for the  Restricted  Stock,
subject to the provisions  hereof, and there shall be no further transfer except
in accordance  with the provisions  hereof.  For the purposes of this paragraph,
"immediate family" shall mean spouse, lineal descendant, father, mother, brother
or sister of the transferor.

                                       1

          (c) Legend on Certificates. Any certificates evidencing the Restricted
Stock issued  prior to the end of the  restrictive  period  described in Section
2(a), above, shall bear the following legend:

          "The  shares  represented  by  this  certificate  are  subject  to  an
          agreement between the Corporation and the registered holder, a copy of
          which is on file at the principal office of this Corporation."

     3. Recapitalization.  If the outstanding shares of Common Stock are changed
into or exchanged for a different  number or kind of shares or other  securities
of Interland by reason of any recapitalization,  reclassification,  stock split,
stock dividend,  combination,  subdivision or similar transaction, then, subject
to any  required  action by  Interland's  shareholders,  the  number and kind of
Restricted Stock is to be  proportionately  adjusted;  except that no fractional
Common Stock may be issued in making the foregoing adjustments and any decisions
or interpretations to be made by Interland in connection therewith shall be made
by the Board of  Directors of  Interland  or the  Compensation  Committee of the
Board of  Directors,  which  determinations  will be binding and  conclusive  on
Interland and Executive and any other person  entitled to exercise  rights under
this Agreement.

     4. Rights as Shareholder. Except for the restrictions on Transfer set forth
in Section 2, above,  Executive  will have all of the rights and privileges of a
shareholder of Interland in respect of all of the Restricted Stock.

     5. Withholding of Taxes. Interland's obligation to deliver Restricted Stock
is subject to  Executive's  satisfaction  of any applicable  federal,  state and
local income and employment  tax and  withholding  requirements  in a manner and
form satisfactory to Interland.

     6. No Special  Employment  Rights.  No provision in this  Agreement will be
deemed to grant to  Executive  any right with respect to  Executive's  continued
employment with, or other  engagement by, the Company or any subsidiary,  parent
or  affiliate  or  interfere  in any way with the  ability of the Company or any
subsidiary,  parent or affiliate at any time to terminate Executive's employment
or other engagement or to increase or decrease Executive's compensation from the
rate in existence at the Grant Date.

     7.  Representation  and Warranty.  Executive  represents  and warrants that
Executive is acquiring  the  Restricted  Stock for  Executive's  own account for
investment  purposes and not with any present  intention of selling or otherwise
distributing such shares and that Executive will comply with applicable  federal
and state  securities laws in connection with any permitted  transfer or sale of
such shares.

     8. Other Employee  Benefits.  The amount of any  compensation  deemed to be
received by Executive as a result of the granting of the Common  Shares will not
constitute  "earnings" with respect to which any other benefits of Executive are
determined,  including,  without limitation,  benefits under any pension, profit
sharing, life insurance or salary continuation plan.

provision  of this  Agreement  in writing to the extent that the waiver does not
