SECTION 5. Covenant to Vote. Prior to the earlier of (x) the Acceptance Date and (y) the termination of this Agreement, the Stockholder hereby agrees to vote all Shares beneficially owned or controlled by such Stockholder (the "Vote Shares"), or to grant a consent or approval in respect of the Vote Shares, in connection with any meeting of the shareholders of the Company or any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting of shareholders of the Company (i) in favor of the Merger or any other transaction pursuant to which the Purchaser proposes to acquire the Company, whether by tender offer, merger or otherwise, in which stockholders of the Company would receive consideration per Share equal to or greater than the consideration to be received by such stockholders in the Offer and the Merger, and/or (ii) against any action or agreement which would impede, interfere with or prevent the Merger, including, but not limited to, any other extraordinary corporate transaction, including a merger, acquisition, sale, consolidation, reorganization or liquidation involving the Company and a third party, or any other proposal of a third party to acquire the Company or all or substantially all of the assets thereof. 3 SECTION 6. Acquisition Proposals; Non-Solicitation. (a) Acquisition Proposals. The Stockholder will notify the Purchaser promptly if any proposals are received by, any information is requested from, or any negotiations or discussions are sought to be initiated or continued with the Stockholder in each case in connection with any Acquisition Proposal indicating, in connection with such notice, the name of the person making such information request or Acquisition Proposal and the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal or information request. However, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting the Stockholder from continuing existing activities, discussions or negotiations on behalf of the Company with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. The Stockholder will keep the Purchaser fully informed, on a current basis, of the status and terms of any Acquisition Proposal. (b) Non-Solicitation. The Stockholder, in his capacity as a shareholder of the Company, shall not and shall not authorize or permit his representatives to directly or indirectly (i) initiate, solicit or encourage, or take any action to facilitate the making of, any offer or proposal which constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) enter into any agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) in the event of an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal for the Company, engage in negotiations or discussions with, or provide any information or data to, any Person (other than the Purchaser or any of its affiliates or representatives) relating to any Acquisition Proposal. Any violation of the foregoing restrictions by the Stockholder shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by the Stockholder. It is understood that this Section 6 limits the rights of the Stockholder only to the extent that the Stockholder is acting in his capacity as a shareholder of the Company. Nothing herein shall be construed as preventing the Stockholder, in his capacity as an officer or director of the Company, from fulfilling the obligations of such office (including, subject to the limitations contained in Sections 5.3 and 5.4 of the Merger Agreement, the performance of obligations required by the fiduciary obligations of the Stockholder acting solely in his capacity as an officer or director). SECTION 7. Further Assurances. The Stockholder shall, upon request of the Purchaser, execute and deliver any additional documents and take such further actions as may reasonably be deemed by the Purchaser to be necessary or desirable to carry out the provisions of this Agreement. SECTION 8. Termination. This Agreement, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate on the earlier of: (a) the date the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms; and (b) the Effective Time; provided, however, that Section 10 and Section 12 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. SECTION 9. Waiver of Appraisal and Dissenter's Rights. The Stockholder waives and agrees not to exercise any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Merger that the Stockholder may have with respect to the Stockholder's Shares. SECTION 10. Expenses. All fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees, costs and expenses. 4 SECTION 11. Stop Transfer Order. In furtherance of this Agreement, concurrently herewith, the Stockholder shall, and hereby does authorize the Company or its counsel to, notify the Company's transfer agent that there is a stop transfer order with respect to all of his Shares (and that this Agreement places limits on the voting and transfer of such shares).

All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally (notice deemed given upon receipt), telecopied (notice deemed given upon confirmation of receipt) or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, such as Federal Express (notice deemed given upon receipt of proof of delivery), to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice): (i) if to the Purchaser, to: DG FastChannel, Inc. 750 W.

The Purchaser and the Stockholder hereby agree that the remedy at law for any breach of this Agreement is and will be inadequate, and in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Stockholder of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall be entitled to seek an injunction restraining the Stockholder from the conduct that would constitute a breach of this Agreement.

Any party may waive any provision of this Agreement or compliance therewith; provided that such waiver is set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party to be bound thereby. Any waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with any agreement or obligation contained herein shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure. (g) Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are not affected in any manner adverse to any party.
