ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

Pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated January 2, 2004 (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among Redback, on the one hand, and TCV IV and Strategic Partners IV (the “TCV IV Funds”), on the other hand, Redback agreed to issue and sell, and TCV IV and Strategic Partners IV agreed to purchase, 628,320 and 23,429 shares, respectively, of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (each, a “Share” and collectively, the “Shares”), at a price of $46.03 per share. Each Share is initially convertible into ten shares of Common Stock. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Redback also agreed to issue to TCV IV and Strategic Partners IV warrants (each, a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”), at a price of $.01 per underlying share to purchase 1,570,800 and 58,573 shares (the “Warrant Shares”), respectively, of Common Stock at a per share exercise price of $5.00. In consideration for the Shares and Warrants, TCV IV and Strategic Partners IV paid the Company $28,937,277.60 and $1,079,022.60, respectively, upon the closing date for the transaction, January 5, 2004 (the “Closing Date”).

The source of funds for the acquisition of the Shares and Warrants by the TCV IV Funds was from capital contributions from their respective partners.

The Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and is incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

Purchase Agreement

The TCV IV Funds agreed to purchase, and the Company agreed to sell, the Shares and Warrants pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. In connection with the approval of the Purchase Agreement, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the purchase of up to an additional 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock by the TCV IV Funds in market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise (the “Market Purchases”).

The Certificate of Designation for Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) provides that the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) shall be entitled to elect one director to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Series B Director”). In the Purchase Agreement, Redback agreed to elect John Drew, a non-managing member of Management IV, to the Company’s Board of Directors as the Series B Director. Mr. Drew became a director effective immediately after of the closing of the acquisition of the Shares and the Warrants. Upon becoming a director, Mr. Drew was granted options to purchase 1,363 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s Director Stock Option Plan. 25%

 


Table of Contents

of such options vest on May 5 of 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007. In addition, in the Purchase Agreement the Company agreed that if the Series B Preferred Stock is no longer outstanding, then for so long as the TCV IV Funds continue to own at least 7.5% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, the Company shall cause an individual designated by the TCV IV Funds to be nominated for election to the Board of Directors of the Company and shall solicit proxies to elect such individual to the Board of Directors to the same extent it does so for the other individuals nominated by the Company for election. For purposes of this provision, the TCV IV Funds shall be deemed to include any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

Certificate of Designation

The rights and privileges of the Series B Preferred Stock are contained in the Certificate of Designation. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible at any time, at the option of the holder, into shares of Common Stock. The initial conversion ratio of the Series B Preferred Stock is 10 shares of Common Stock for one share of Series B Preferred Stock. The conversion ratio is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments related to stock splits, recapitalizations, mergers, reorganizations and the like. The Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into Common Stock at the then effective conversion ratio, if at any time after the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the closing sales price of the Common Stock is greater than three times the effective conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock (initially $4.603 per share of Common Stock) on each of 90 consecutive trading days, such 90 trading day period beginning after such one-year anniversary, provided that at such time the registration statement referred to under the heading “Investor Rights Agreement” has been declared effective and is usable.

The Series B Preferred Stock shall accrue a 2% annual dividend, which in certain instances can be paid in additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall be paid semi-annually on July 1, and January 1, commencing with July 1, 2004. If the Company declares a dividend or distribution on shares of Common Stock, then the Company shall declare an additional dividend on each share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the amount a holder of a share of Series B Preferred Stock would have received if such holder had converted, at the then effective conversion ratio, a share of Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock prior to the record date for such dividend or distribution.

Upon a Sale Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall generally be entitled to receive, prior to any payments to the holders of Common Stock, the original issue price of the Series B Preferred Stock ($46.03) per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall vote with the holders of Common Stock on all matters submitted to the holders of Common Stock for a vote, with each share of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such share of Preferred Stock. The consent of the holders of a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock will be required for the Company to take certain actions, which are set forth in the Certificate of Designation.

A copy of the Certificate of Designation is attached hereto as Exhibit 3 and is incorporated by reference herein.

Investor Rights Agreement

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company, the TCV IV Funds entered into an Investor Rights Agreement dated the Closing Date. Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, the Company has agreed to register the resale of the Warrants and shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares and upon exercise of the Warrants, shares of Common Stock acquired in Market Purchases, and certain other shares of Common Stock (the “Registrable Securities”). In addition, subject to certain limitations, the TCV IV Funds have the right to have the Registrable Securities included in any underwritten public offering of equity securities by the Company. The Company is obligated to pay all expenses incurred in connection with such registrations (other than underwriting discounts and commissions, and stock transfer taxes). The Company has agreed to indemnify the TCV IV Funds and related persons against certain liabilities under the securities laws in connection with the sale of securities under such registrations.

A copy of the Investor Rights Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 4 and is incorporated by reference herein.

Warrants

The Warrants represent the right to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. Payment of the exercise price may be made in cash, or through the surrender of Common Stock underlying Warrants with a fair market value equal to the exercise price of the Warrants being exercised (otherwise known as net exercise). The exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is subject to anti-dilution adjustment under certain circumstances as set forth in the Warrants.

A copy of the form of Warrant issued to the TCV IV Funds is attached hereto as Exhibit 5 and is incorporated by reference herein.

SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     THIS SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of January 2, 2004, by and among REDBACK NETWORKS, INC. a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the investors listed on Exhibit A hereto, each of which is herein referred to as an “Investor” and all of which are collectively referred to herein as the “Investors.” Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the definitions set forth in Section 7.14 hereof.

RECITALS

     WHEREAS, the Company has filed with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”) a Prepackaged Plan or Reorganization, as supplemented prior to the date hereof (the “Plan”) in connection with its Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Case, which Plan was confirmed on December 22, 2003 and became effective in accordance with the Plan’s terms and conditions on the date hereof, prior to the execution of this Agreement.

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to sell and the Investors desire to purchase (i) 651,749 shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), and (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,629,373 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at an initial exercise price of $5.00 per share in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (collectively, the “Warrants”).

AGREEMENT

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

     1. Purchase and Sale of Shares and the Warrant.

         1.1. Sale and Issuance of Series B Preferred Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Investor agrees, severally but not jointly, to purchase at the Closing, and the Company agrees to sell and issue to each Investor at the Closing, that number of shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock set forth opposite each Investor’s name on Exhibit A hereto at a purchase price of $46.03 per share. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be sold pursuant to this Agreement are collectively referred to herein as the “Shares.” The Series B Preferred Stock shall have the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth in the form of certificate of designation for the Series B Preferred Stock attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Certificate of Designation”), which Certificate of Designation will be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware prior to the Closing (as defined below).

         1.2 Sale and Issuance of the Warrants. Upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Investor agrees, severally but not jointly, to purchase at the Closing, and the Company agrees to sell and issue to each Investor at the Closing, a Warrant for that number of

1


Table of Contents

shares of Common Stock opposite each Investor’s name on Exhibit A, at a purchase price of $0.01 for each share of Common Stock subject to the Warrant. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are collectively referred to as the “Warrant Shares”. The Company and the Investors, as a result of arm’s length bargaining, agree that (i) neither the Investors nor any of their affiliates have rendered or have agreed to render any services to the Company in connection with this Agreement or the issuance of the Shares or the Warrants; and (ii) the Warrants are not being issued as compensation. The Company and the Investors agree that the fair market value of the Warrants purchased by each Investor is equal to $0.01 multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant is initially exercisable, and to file all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns in a manner consistent with such valuation.

         1.3 Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Shares and Warrants shall take place at the offices of Latham & Watkins LLP, 135 Commonwealth Drive, Menlo Park, California promptly following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Sections 4 and 5 (other than satisfaction of conditions which will be satisfied at the closing) or at such other time and place as the Company and Investors purchasing a majority of the Shares mutually agree (which time and place are designated as the “Closing”). At the Closing, (i) the Company shall deliver to each Investor a certificate or certificates representing the Shares and the duly executed Warrants purchased by each Investor against payment of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company, and (ii) the Company and the Investors shall make the other deliveries provided for in Sections 4 and 5.

     2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions attached hereto as Exhibit D, specifically identifying the relevant subparagraph or subparagraphs hereof, which exceptions shall be deemed to be representations and warranties as if made hereunder, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Investors as of the date hereof and as of the Closing as follows:

Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in each other jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to so qualify would not reasonably be expect to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         2.2. Capitalization. As of the time of execution of this Agreement after giving effect to the effectiveness of the Plan and to the events contemplated by the Plan which are to become effective as of the Effective Date (as defined in the Plan), including without limitation the filing of the Redback Reorganized Certificate of Incorporation, the Reverse Stock Split, the cancellation of the Existing Securities and the issuance of the New Common Stock and the New Warrants (each as defined in the Plan), the authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 750,001,200 shares of Common Stock, 52,135,000 of which are issued and outstanding, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Stock”), and of which 250,000 are designated as Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock and 750,000 are

The Company has no commitments, obligations or agreements to repurchase or redeem any of its shares of capital stock or options, warrants or other rights to acquire capital stock of the Company.

The Company does not own or control, directly or indirectly, any interest in any other corporation, association, or other business entity. The Company is not a participant in any joint venture, partnership, or similar arrangement.

         2.4. Authorization.

         2.6. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of each of this Agreement, the Warrants and the Investor Rights Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the issuance of the Shares, and the Warrants Shares and Conversion Shares, will not result in, or give rise to, (A) any violation, default, breach, termination or cancellation, right of termination or cancellation, right of acceleration, loss of a material benefit, payment of any penalty, or be in conflict with (in each case, with or without notice or passage of time, or both) (a) the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or other organizational documents of the Company or its Subsidiaries, (b) the Plan, (c) any material instrument, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, contract, commitment, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, or (d) any material provision of any state, federal, or local statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or its Subsidiaries, except in the case of (c) and (d) only for such violations, defaults, breaches, terminations, cancellations, penalties or conflicts which individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (B) an event that results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries or the suspension, revocation,

         2.22. Disclosure. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the exhibits attached hereto and any certificate furnished or to be furnished to Investors at Closing do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or, taken together with the SEC Documents, omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

         2.25. Shareholder Rights Plan. The Board of Directors of the Company, at a meeting duly called and held on January 2, 2004, has amended the Company’s Shareholder Rights Plan (the “Amendment”), so as to render it inapplicable to the Investors with respect to the purchase of the Shares and the Warrants and the issuance of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, and the Market Purchases. The Company has provided a true and correct copy of the Amendment to the Investors.

         2.26. Plan Effectiveness. All conditions to the Effective Date have been satisfied prior to the date hereof, and all of the events contemplated by the Plan which are to occur or become effective on the Effective Date shall have become effective or occurred, including without limitation the filing of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Reverse Stock Split (as defined in the Plan), the cancellation of the

The transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement do not conflict with or violate the Plan, the Confirmation Order or the Lock-Up Agreements (as defined in the Plan). None of the Shares, Warrants, Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares shall constitute “Old Redback Interests,” “Post-Split Common Stock” or “Interests” under the Plan.

         2.27. Financial Projections. Prior to the date hereof, the Company has provided the Investors with its most current financial projections for the Company (the “Financial Projections”). The Financial Projections were prepared in good faith, are based on assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable as of the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the Company’s ability to achieve such projections.

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION
OF
SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
OF
REDBACK NETWORKS INC.


Pursuant to Section 151 of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware


The undersigned, Thomas L. Cronan III, does hereby certify:
   
1. That he is duly elected and acting Senior Vice President of Finance and Administration and Chief Financial Officer of Redback Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”); and
 
2. That the Board of Directors of the Corporation, pursuant to the authority expressly vested in it, has duly adopted the following resolution creating a series of Preferred Stock of the Corporation:

     WHEREAS, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Redback Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), which was adopted pursuant to that certain Plan of Reorganization of the Corporation (the “Plan”) which was confirmed by order of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware on December 22, 2003, authorizes the Corporation to issue a total of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Stock”), which may be divided into one or more series as the Board of Directors may determine;

     WHEREAS, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation expressly vests in the Board of Directors the authority to fix and determine the designations, powers, preferences, relative and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions, of the Preferred Stock; and

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it advisable to designate a series of the Preferred Stock consisting of 750,000 shares designated as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock;

     NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, that pursuant to Article IV of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, there be and hereby is authorized and created a series of Preferred Stock hereby designated as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, to consist of 750,000 shares, having a par value of $0.0001 per share, which series shall have the voting rights, designations, powers, preferences, relative and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions set forth below:

     Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. 750,000 of the authorized shares of Preferred Stock are hereby designated “Series B Convertible Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). The rights, preferences, privileges, restrictions and other matters relating to the Series B Preferred Stock are as follows:

     (a) Dividend Rights.

          (i) General. Subject to the right of any other series of Preferred Stock that may from time to time come into existence and which is expressly senior to the rights of the Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock, in preference to the payment of any dividends to the holders of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Corporation (the “Common Stock”), the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Corporation, and any other stock of the Corporation hereafter created which shall be junior to the Series B Preferred Stock (collectively with the Common Stock, “Junior Stock”), shall be entitled to receive dividends, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, but only out of funds that are legally available therefor, at the Series B Dividend Rate on each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock. For any share of Series B Preferred Stock, such

1


Table of Contents

dividends shall begin to accrue commencing upon the first day such share of Series B Preferred Stock is issued and becomes outstanding and shall be payable semi-annually on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on July 1, 2004 (each, a “Dividend Payment Date”), provided that (i) if any such Dividend Payment Date is not a Business Day, then any such dividend shall be payable on the next Business Day, and (ii) any such dividend shall be payable only as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine, and only when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. Subject to the foregoing, any such dividend shall be paid to the holders of record at the close of business on the date specified by the Board of Directors at the time such dividend is declared, provided, however, that such date may not be more than 30 days nor less than 10 days prior to the applicable Dividend Payment Date. Such dividends shall accrue day by day and shall be cumulative, whether or not declared by the Board of Directors and whether or not there shall be funds legally available for the payment of dividends. Dividends payable for any period shorter or longer than a semi-annual dividend period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Dividends in arrears may be declared by the Board of Directors and paid on any date fixed by the Board of Directors, without reference to any regular Dividend Payment Date. Any dividend paid upon the Series B Preferred Stock at a time when any accrued dividends for any prior periods are delinquent shall be expressly declared as a dividend in whole or partial payment of the accrued dividend for the earliest period or periods for which dividends are then delinquent, and shall be so designated to each holder to whom payment is made thereof.

          (ii) PIK Dividends. The Corporation shall have the option to pay dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock contemplated by Section (a)(i) above in cash or in fully paid and nonassessable shares of Series B Preferred Stock (any such dividends that are paid in shares of Series B Preferred Stock are herein called “PIK Dividends”); provided, however, the Corporation shall not pay any PIK Dividend (i) without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock unless the sale, distribution or other disposition of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock to be paid as part of the PIK Dividend by the holders of such Series B Preferred Stock is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) by an effective and useable registration statement, on the appropriate Form, all in compliance with the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder, and no stop order has been issued with respect thereto, except that a PIK Dividend with respect to the July 1, 2004 Dividend Payment Date shall not be so restricted, and (ii) if the payment thereof would cause the Corporation not to be in compliance with Rule 4350(i)(1)(D) of the Nasdaq Stock Market with respect to required stockholder approvals. The PIK Dividends shall be paid by delivering a number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock determined by dividing the aggregate dollar amount of such PIK Dividend (rounded to the nearest whole cent) by the Series B Price as of the payment date of such PIK Dividend. The Corporation shall not issue fractional shares of Series B Preferred Stock to which holders may become entitled pursuant to this subparagraph, but in lieu thereof, the Corporation shall deliver cash in an amount equal to the applicable fraction of the Series B Price. Any additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued pursuant to this Section (a)(ii) shall be governed by this resolution and shall be subject in all respects, except as to the date of issuance and date from which dividends accrue and cumulate as set forth above, to the same terms as the shares of Series B Preferred Stock originally issued hereunder.

          (iii) Participation. If the Corporation declares a dividend or distribution on Common Stock (other than a Common Stock Event (as defined below in Section (d)(v)), then the

2


Table of Contents

Corporation shall, in addition to any dividend otherwise payable pursuant to this Section (a), declare and pay to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock a dividend or other distribution consisting of the dividend or distribution that would have been payable on the shares of Common Stock had the Series B Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of the Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, or, if no such record was taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividend or distribution were determined.

          (iv) Limitations on Junior Dividends and Repurchases. In addition to the requirements of Section (b)(ii), so long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the then issued and outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, no dividends (other than Common Stock dividends paid pro rata to the Corporations’ stockholders), whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be paid or declared, nor shall any other distribution (other than a Common Stock dividend paid pro rata to the Corporation’s stockholders) be made, on any shares of Junior Stock, nor shall any shares of any Junior Stock of the Corporation be purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for value by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries (except (A) for acquisitions of Common Stock by the Corporation or its subsidiaries pursuant to stock-based compensation arrangements or agreements that permit the Corporation to repurchase such shares upon termination of services to the Corporation or its subsidiaries for a price not greater than the cost thereof to the applicable service provider, (B) for acquisitions by the Corporation or its subsidiaries in whole or partial satisfaction of the exercise price or applicable tax withholding requirements in respect of any option, restricted stock or similar award made pursuant to any compensation or benefit plan, agreement or arrangement maintained or assumed by the Corporation or its subsidiaries, and (C) by conversion into, or exchange for, Junior Stock) until all dividends (set forth in Section (a)(i) above) then accrued on the Series B Preferred Stock shall have been paid or declared and set apart for payment.

Table of Contents

Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4351, the number of votes to which each holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock is entitled shall be reduced, pro rata, to the extent required to comply with such rule.

     (c) Liquidation Rights.

          (i) General.

               (A) Liquidation Preference. Upon any Sale Transaction, liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any Junior Stock, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid in cash out of the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution (or in the case of a Sale Transaction in the form of the consideration provided for by the terms thereof) an amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the sum of the Series B Original Issue Price plus the amount of all accrued and unpaid dividends on a share of Series B Preferred Stock (the “Liquidation Preference”) as of the day of payment of the Liquidation Preference, for each share of Series B Preferred Stock held by each such holder. If, upon any such Sale Transaction, liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the assets of the Corporation (or, in the case of an Acquisition, the aggregate consideration payable to the Corporation’s stockholders) shall be insufficient to make payment in full of the Liquidation Preference to all holders of Series B Preferred Stock, then such assets (or, in the case of an Acquisition, the remaining consideration payable to the Corporation’s stockholders) shall be distributed among the holders of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, ratably in proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.

               (B) Participation. After the payment of the foregoing full Liquidation Preference of the Series B Preferred Stock and any other distribution that may be required with respect to any series of Preferred Stock that may from time to time come into existence and which is expressly senior to the rights of the Common Stock, (x) other than in the case of an Acquisition or an Asset Transfer which is not followed by a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the remaining assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution, if any, shall be distributed to the holders of the Common Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock pro-rata based upon the number of shares of Common Stock held by such holders and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by such holders in accordance with the provisions of Section (d) below, and (y) in the case of an Acquisition or an Asset Transfer which is not followed by a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the remaining assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution (or, in the case of an Acquisition, the remaining consideration payable to the Corporation’s stockholders), if any, shall be distributed to the holders of Common Stock pro-rata based upon the number of shares of Common Stock held by such holders.

               (C) Sale Transaction. The Corporation shall not enter into any Sale Transaction that does not provide for the treatment of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Section (c), assuming in the case of a merger or consolidation that the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution equals the aggregate consideration to be received by the Corporation’s stockholders in such merger or consolidation. In the event the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence are not complied with in connection with a Sale Transaction, the Corporation shall forthwith either (A) cause the closing of such Sale Transaction to be postponed until such time as such requirements have been complied with or (B) cancel such Sale Transaction, in which event the rights,

6


Table of Contents

preferences and privileges of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall revert to and be the same as such rights, preferences and privileges existing immediately prior to the date of the first notice referred to in Section (c)(v). Upon receipt by any holder of the full amount of the distributions to such holder as contemplated by this Section (c)(i) in respect of any share of Series B Preferred Stock, such share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be retired and shall no longer be outstanding.

          (ii) The following events (each a “Sale Transaction”) shall be considered a liquidation under this Section (c):

               (A) any (i) consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity or person in which the stockholders of the Corporation immediately prior to such consolidation or merger own less than a majority of the equity interest and voting power of the surviving entity (or of the surviving entity’s parent) immediately after such consolidation or merger, excluding any consolidation or merger effected exclusively to change the domicile of the Corporation, or (ii) tender offer, corporate reorganization, or other acquisition transaction or series of related transactions, immediately after which the stockholders of the Corporation immediately prior to such tender offer, corporate reorganization, or other acquisition transaction or series of related transactions own less than a majority of the equity interests and voting power of the Corporation (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, an “Acquisition”); or

               (B) a direct or indirect sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation (an “Asset Transfer”).

          (iii) In any of the events set forth in subparagraph (ii), if the consideration received by the Corporation or its stockholders is other than cash, its value will be deemed its fair market value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors and the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock. Any securities shall be valued as follows:

               (A) Securities not subject to restrictions on free marketability covered by subparagraph (B) below:

                    (1) If traded on a securities exchange or through the Nasdaq National Market (or a similar national quotation system), the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the securities on such quotation system over the 30-day period ending three days prior to the closing;

                    (2) If actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid or sale prices (whichever is applicable) over the 30-day period ending three days prior to the closing; and

                    (3) If there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors and the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock.

               (B) The method of valuation of securities subject to restrictions on free marketability (other than restrictions arising solely by virtue of a stockholder’s status as an

7


Table of Contents

affiliate or former affiliate) shall be to make an appropriate discount from the market value determined as above in subparagraphs (iii)(A)(1), (2) or (3) to reflect the approximate fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors and the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock.

          (iv) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section (c), if any Acquisition is approved by both (A) the vote of the holders of at least a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock, voting as a single class, and (B) a vote sufficient under the Delaware General Corporation Law, these resolutions and the Bylaws of the Corporation, then such Acquisition and the rights of the holders of Common Stock and Preferred Stock in connection with such Acquisition will be governed by the documents to be entered into in connection with such Acquisition.

          (v) Written notice of any such Sale Transaction, liquidation, dissolution or winding up, of the Corporation within the meaning of this Section (c), which states the date and time of the closing of the Sale Transaction, the payment date, the place where said payments shall be made and the date on which conversion rights as set forth herein terminate as to such shares (which shall be not less than 10 days after the date of such notice), shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, or by telecopy or facsimile, not less than 20 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to the then holders of record of Series B Preferred Stock, such notice to be addressed to each such holder at its address as shown on the records of the Corporation.

     (d) Conversion Right. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall have the following rights with respect to the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion Rights”):

          (i) Optional Conversion. Subject to and in compliance with the provisions of this Section (d), any share of Series B Preferred Stock may, at the option of the holder, be converted at any time into fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock to which a holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled upon conversion shall be the product obtained by multiplying the “Series B Preferred Conversion Rate” then in effect (determined as provided in subsection (d)(ii)) by the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted.

          (ii) Series B Preferred Conversion Rate. The conversion rate in effect at any time for conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Conversion Rate”) shall be the quotient obtained by dividing the Series B Original Issue Price by the “Series B Preferred Conversion Price,” determined as provided in subsection (d)(iii) below.

          (iii) Series B Preferred Conversion Price. The conversion price for the Series B Preferred Stock shall initially be $4.603 the “Series B Preferred Conversion Price”). Such initial Series B Preferred Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time in accordance with this Section (d). All references to the Series B Preferred Conversion Price herein shall mean the Series B Preferred Conversion Price as so adjusted.

          (iv) Mechanics of Conversion. Each holder of Series B Preferred Stock who desires to convert the same into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section (d)(i) shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or

8


Table of Contents

any transfer agent for the Series B Preferred Stock, and shall give written notice to the Corporation at such office that such holder elects to convert the same. Such notice shall state the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted. Thereupon, the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver at such office to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and shall promptly pay (x) in cash the value of any fractional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable to any holder of Series B Preferred Stock, and (y) in cash or Common Stock as provided in Section (d)(xiii) below, any accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made at the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificates representing the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock on such date. If a conversion is in connection with a bona fide public offering of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or under similar laws of other jurisdictions (a “Public Offering”), the conversion shall be conditioned upon the closing of the sale of Common Stock pursuant to such Public Offering, and the conversion shall not be deemed to have occurred until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of Common Stock.

          (v) Adjustment Upon Common Stock Event. Upon the happening of a Common Stock Event at any time or from time to time after the date that the first share of Series B Preferred Stock is issued (the “Series B Original Issue Date”), the Series B Preferred Conversion Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such Common Stock Event, be adjusted by multiplying the Series B Preferred Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Common Stock Event by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to such Common Stock Event and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after such Common Stock Event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Series B Preferred Conversion Price. The Series B Preferred Conversion Price shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of each subsequent Common Stock Event. As used in this Section (d), the term “Common Stock Event” shall mean (i) the issue by the Corporation of additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (ii) a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock (by stock split, reclassification or otherwise), or (iii) a combination or consolidation, by reclassification or otherwise of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that the reverse stock split with respect to the Common Stock which is to occur as part of the Plan shall not be deemed a Common Stock Event.

          (vi) Adjustment for Other Dividends and Distributions. If at any time or from time to time after the Series B Original Issue Date the Corporation pays a dividend or makes another distribution to the holders of the Common Stock (or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution) payable in securities of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, in each case other than shares of Common Stock, then in each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion thereof, the amount of securities of the Corporation or such subsidiary which they would have received had their Series B

9


Table of Contents

Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event (or such record date, as applicable) and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event (or such record date, as applicable) to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, subject to all other adjustments required during such period under this Section (d) with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock or with respect to such other securities by their terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the adjustment provided by this Section (d)(vi) shall not be made if the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall have received a proportionate share of such dividend or distribution as provided in Section (a)(iii).

          (vii) Adjustment for Reclassification, Recapitalization, Etc. If at any time or from time to time after the Series B Original Issue Date, the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a Common Stock Event provided for in Section (d)(v) above, a reorganization, merger or consolidation provided for elsewhere in this Section (d), or the reverse stock split with respect to the Common Stock which is to occur as part of the Plan), in any such event each holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such Series B Preferred Stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by a holder of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series B Preferred Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section (d)(vii) with respect to the rights of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock after such recapitalization, reclassification or other change (including adjustment of the Series B Preferred Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock), to the end that the provisions of this Section (d) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such recapitalization, reclassification or other change is approved by both (A) the vote of the holders of at least a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock, voting as a single class, and (B) a vote sufficient under the Delaware General Corporation Law, these resolutions and the Bylaws of the Corporation, then the rights of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock in connection with such recapitalization, reclassification or other change will be governed by the documents to be entered into in connection with such transaction.

          (viii) Adjustment for Mergers or Consolidations. If at any time or from time to time after the Series B Original Issue Date, there is a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another corporation or another entity or person in which the Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding, as a part of such merger or consolidation, provision shall be made so that the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of each share of Series B Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property which a holder of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series B Preferred Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such merger or consolidation, subject to adjustment in respect of such stock or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section (d)(viii) with respect to the rights of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock after the

10


Table of Contents

merger or consolidation (including adjustment of the Series B Preferred Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock), to the end that the provisions of this Section (d) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such merger or consolidation is approved by both (A) the vote of the holders of at least a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock, voting as a single class, and (B) a vote sufficient under the Delaware General Corporation Law, these resolutions and the Bylaws of the Corporation, then the rights of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock in connection with such merger or consolidation will be governed by the documents to be entered into in connection with such transaction.

          (ix) Certificate of Adjustment. In each case of an adjustment of the Series B Preferred Conversion Price or the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall, at its expense, compute such adjustment in accordance with the provisions hereof and prepare a certificate showing such adjustment, and shall deliver such certificate to each holder of Series B Preferred Stock. The certificate shall set forth such adjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based, including a statement of the Series B Preferred Conversion Price at the time in effect, and the type and amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock.

          (x) Notices of Record Date. Upon (i) any taking by the Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or (ii) any Acquisition or other reorganization of the Corporation, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Corporation, any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into any other entity, or any Asset Transfer, or any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Corporation, the Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series B Preferred Stock at least 10 days prior to the record date specified therein (or such shorter period approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock) a notice specifying (A) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution and a description of such dividend or distribution, (B) the date on which any such Acquisition, reorganization, reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger, Asset Transfer, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up is expected to become effective, and (C) the date, if any, that is to be fixed as to when the holders of record of Common Stock (or other securities) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or other securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such Acquisition, reorganization, reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger, Asset Transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

          (xi) Automatic Conversion.

               (A) Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock, based on the then-effective Series B Preferred Conversion Rate if, at any time after the one-year anniversary of the Series B Original Issue Date, (x) the Common Stock had a Closing Price for 90 consecutive Trading Days commencing and ending after such one-year anniversary which is at least three times the Series B Preferred Conversion Price in effect on each such Trading Day, and (y) the Shelf Registration (as defined in and provided for in the Investor Rights Agreement, dated as of January 5, 2004, among the

11


Table of Contents

Corporation and the other parties thereto) is effective under the Securities Act, and no stop order has been issued with respect thereto, and such registration statement is then usable without restrictions for sales of Common Stock by a holder of the Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock.

               (B) Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock, based on the then-effective Series B Preferred Conversion Rate, upon the approval of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

               (C) Upon the occurrence of the events specified in subparagraph (A) or (B), the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be converted automatically into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at the then effective Series B Preferred Conversion Rate and cash, or Common Stock as provided is Section (d)(xiii) below, equal to the accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares of Series B Preferred Stock without any further action by the holders of such shares and whether or not the certificates representing such shares are surrendered to the Corporation or its transfer agent; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion or pay the accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares of Series B Preferred Stock unless the certificates evidencing such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are either delivered to the Corporation or its transfer agent as provided below, or the holder notifies the Corporation or its transfer agent that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates. Upon the occurrence of such automatic conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, (x) the Corporation shall notify (the “Automatic Conversion Notice”) each holder of Series B Preferred Stock who is shown to be such a holder on the books of the Corporation as of the time immediately prior to such conversion and (y) the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificates representing such shares at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for the Series B Preferred Stock, which shall be designated in the Automatic Conversion Notice. Thereupon, there shall be issued and delivered to such holder promptly at such office and in its name as shown on such surrendered certificate or certificates, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series B Preferred Stock surrendered were convertible on the date on which such automatic conversion occurred plus cash, or Common Stock as provided is Section (d)(xiii) below, equal to the accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

          (xii) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock. All shares of Common Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable upon conversion of more than one share of Series B Preferred Stock represented by a single certificate shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the conversion would result in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after the aforementioned aggregation, the conversion would result in the issuance of any fractional share, the Corporation shall, in lieu of issuing any fractional share, pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Common Stock’s fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) on the date of conversion.

          (xiii) Accrued Dividends. Upon conversion of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock as provided herein, the holders thereof shall be entitled to receive a cash payment in satisfaction of all accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, provided, however, that the Corporation shall have the option to pay such accrued and unpaid dividends in fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (any such dividends that are paid in shares of Common Stock are herein called “Common Stock Dividends”); provided, however, the Corporation shall not pay any Common Stock Dividends (i) without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock unless the sale, distribution or other disposition of the Common Stock to be paid as part of the Common Stock Dividend by the holders of such Common Stock is registered under the Securities Act by an effective and useable registration statement, on the appropriate Form, all in compliance with the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder, and no stop order has been issued with respect thereto, and (ii) if the payment thereof would cause the Corporation not to be in compliance with Rule 4350(i)(1)(D) of the Nasdaq Stock Market with respect to required stockholder approvals. The Common Stock Dividends shall be paid by delivering to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock to be converted a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the aggregate dollar amount of dividends accrued and unpaid with respect to the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be converted (rounded to the nearest whole cent) by the average Closing Price of the Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days immediately prior to the date of payment of the Common Stock Dividend. The Corporation shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock to which holders may become entitled pursuant to this subparagraph, but in lieu thereof, the Corporation shall deliver cash in an amount equal to the applicable fraction of the Common Stock Closing Price as of the date of payment.

          (xiv) Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

          (xv) Notices. Any notice required by the provisions of this resolution shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (i) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (ii) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile, on the next Business Day, (iii) five days after having been sent by registered or certified U.S. mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (iv) one Business Day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with verification of receipt.

          (xvii) No Impairment. The Corporation shall not avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock against impairment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section (d)(xvii) shall prohibit the Corporation from amending its Certificate of Incorporation (including this resolution) with the requisite consent of its stockholders and the Board of Directors.

No share or shares of Series B Preferred Stock acquired by the Corporation by reason of purchase, conversion or otherwise shall be reissued, and all such shares shall be cancelled, retired and eliminated from the shares of Series B Preferred Stock that the Corporation is authorized to issue.

     SECTION 3 Restrictive Legend. Each certificate representing the Shares and each Warrant (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of Section 4 below) shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in the following form (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE OR WARRANT HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not require such a notice or legal opinion or “no action” letter (a) in any customary transaction in compliance with Rule 144, (b) in any transaction in which a holder that is a corporation distributes Restricted Securities solely to its majority owned subsidiaries or affiliates for no consideration or (c) in any transaction in which a holder that is a partnership or limited liability company distributes Restricted Securities solely to its affiliates (including affiliated fund partnerships), partners or members thereof for no consideration. Each certificate or warrant evidencing the Restricted Securities transferred as above provided shall bear the appropriate restrictive legend set forth in Section 3 above, except that such certificate or warrant shall not bear such restrictive legend if such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act. Upon the request of a holder of a certificate or warrant bearing such restrictive legend, the Company shall remove such

restrictive legend from such certificate or warrant if such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act.

     SECTION 5 Mandatory Registration. The Company shall file a registration statement covering the sale or distribution by the Holders, on a delayed or continuous basis, including without limitation, by way of underwritten offering, block sale or other distribution plan designated by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities from time to time, of all of the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith) (the “Shelf Registration”) within 90 days after the date hereof and shall cause the Shelf Registration to be declared effective by the Commission (and shall take such appropriate actions as are related thereto including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification, if necessary, under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event prior to the date that is 165 days after the date hereof. Once declared effective, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause (x) the Shelf Registration to be effective until the earlier of (i) five (5) years from the date hereof and (ii) such time as the Holders own shares of Common Stock, or shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Registrable Securities, which in the aggregate are less than 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock and the Holders may sell all of their Registrable Securities without registration pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act in any and all three-month periods, and (y) subject to Section 9(j), the Shelf Registration to be useable by the Holders during such entire period. The Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect the Shelf Registration in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business, subject itself to general taxation or execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance unless the Company is already qualified to do business, subject to general taxation or subject to service, as the case may be, in such jurisdiction, except as may be required by the Securities Act.

     SECTION 6 Company Registration.

          (a) Notice of Registration. If at any time or from time to time, the Company shall determine to file a registration statement for an underwritten public offering of its equity securities, the Company will:

               (i) promptly give to each Holder written notice thereof; and

               (ii) subject to Section 6(b) below, include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance) all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made within 15 days after receipt of such written notice from the Company by any Holder.

          (b) Underwriting. The right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 6 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. Each

4


Table of Contents

Holder proposing to distribute its securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into and perform such Holder’s obligations under an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, if the managing underwriter provides written notice to the Holders that it has determined that market factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be included in such registration, the managing underwriter shall include in the offering the maximum number of shares that may be included in the offering consistently with such market factors and shall allocate such included shares as follows: (i) first, the shares requested to be sold by the Company for its own account or the holder of securities initiating the registration under demand registration rights granted by the Company; (ii) second, among the Holders and other holders pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities owned by such Holders, the shares requested to be included in the offering by the Holders and the shares requested to be included in the offering pursuant to piggyback registration rights by other holders granted by the Company; and (iii) third, any other shares requested or proposed by the Company to be included for resale. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder or other holder to the nearest 100 shares. If any Holder or other holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

          (c) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 6 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration.

     SECTION 7 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date hereof, the Company shall not enter into any agreement granting any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company registration rights with respect to such securities that are inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders herein, without the consent of Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities.

     SECTION 8 Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Sections 5 and 6 and the reasonable cost of one special legal counsel to represent all of the Holders together in any such registration shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holders shall be borne by the Holders of the registered securities included in such registration pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered.

     SECTION 9 Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration effected by the Company pursuant to Sections 5 and 6, the Company will keep each Holder participating in such registration advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration and as to the completion thereof and, at its expense, the Company will:

          (a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities;

          (b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statements as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement and as may be necessary to keep the registration statement continuously effective for the period set forth in this Agreement;

          (c) furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to their legal counsel copies of the registration statement proposed to be filed, and provide such Holders and their legal counsel the reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such registration statement;

          (d) furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to the underwriters of the securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus and such other documents as such underwriters may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of such securities;

          (e) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing, and, subject to Section 9(j), at the request of any such Holder, prepare promptly and furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchaser of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing;

          (f) use reasonable best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions;

          (g) make available for inspection by any Holder participating in such registration, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration, and any attorney or accountant retained by any such Holder or underwriter, all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers and directors to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Holder, underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with such registration statement; provided, however, that such Holder, underwriter, attorney or accountant shall agree to hold in confidence and trust all information so provided;

Table of Contents

          (h) in the event that the Registrable Securities are being offered in an underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, including, without limitation, customary indemnification and contribution obligations, with the underwriters of such offering, and shall participate and cooperate with the underwriters in connection with any road show or marketing activities customary for an underwritten public offering;

          (i) use reasonable best efforts to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the legal counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (ii) a letter dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters; and

          (j) notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Board of Directors of the Company has determined in good faith that the continued use of the prospectus and registration statement by the Holders would be materially detrimental to the Company, the Company shall have the right to suspend the use of the prospectus and the registration statement covering any Registrable Security for such period of time as its use would be materially detrimental to the Company by delivering written notice of such suspension to all Holders listed on the Company’s records; provided, however, that the Company may exercise the right to such suspension only once in any 12-month period and for a period not to exceed 90 days. From and after the date of a notice of suspension under this Section 9(j), each Holder agrees not to use the prospectus or registration statement until the earlier of (1) notice from the Company that such suspension has been lifted or (2) the 90th day following the giving of such notice.

     SECTION 10 Indemnification.

          (a) The Company will indemnify each Holder, each Holder’s current and former officers, directors, partners and members, and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities, joint or several, (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation by the Company of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, Exchange Act or state securities laws applicable to the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, each such Holder’s current and former officers, directors, partners and members, and each person controlling such Holder,

7


Table of Contents

each such underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred. The indemnity agreement contained in this section shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable to a Holder in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action (1) to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a violation or alleged violation of any state or federal law (including any claim arising out of or based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission in the registration statement or prospectus) which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by or on behalf of such Holder or (2) in the case of a sale directly by a Holder of Registrable Securities (including a sale of such Registrable Securities through any underwriter retained by such Holder engaging in a distribution solely on behalf of such Holder), such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was contained in a preliminary prospectus and corrected in a final or amended prospectus, and such Holder failed to deliver a copy of the final or amended prospectus at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability in any case in which such delivery is required by the Securities Act.

          (b) Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify, severally and not jointly, the Company, each of its directors, officers, partners and members, each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other such Holder, each of its officers, directors, partners and members and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such Holders, such directors, officers, partners, members, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein, provided that in no event shall any indemnity under this subparagraph 10(b) payable by a Holder exceed the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities included in such registration exceeds the amount of any other losses, expenses, settlements, damages, claims and liabilities that such Holder has been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. The indemnity agreement contained in this section shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is

8


Table of Contents

effected without the consent of the applicable Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), nor shall the Holder be liable for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action where such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was contained in a preliminary prospectus and corrected in a final or amended prospectus, and the Company or the underwriters failed to deliver a copy of the final or amended prospectus at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability in any case in which such delivery is required by the Securities Act

          (c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 10 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicting interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 10 only to the extent that the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. The indemnity agreements contained in this Section 10 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

          (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party, other than pursuant to its terms, with respect to any claim, loss, damage, liability or action referred to therein, then, subject to the limitations contained in Section 10(e), the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such claim, loss, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the actions that resulted in such claims, loss, damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact related to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by

9


Table of Contents

the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10(d) were based solely upon the number of entities from whom contribution was requested or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 10(d). In no event shall any Holder’s contribution obligation under this Section 10(d) exceed the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities included in such registration exceeds the amount of any other losses, expenses, settlements, damages, claims and liabilities that such Holder has been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

          (e) The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above in this Section 10 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim, subject to the provisions of Section 10 hereof. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

     SECTION 11 Information by Holder. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.

     SECTION 12 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the sale of the Restricted Securities to the public without registration, Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

          (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act;

          (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

          (c) so long as a Holder owns any Restricted Securities, to furnish to the Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company and other information in the possession of or reasonably obtainable by the Company as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without registration.

     SECTION 13 Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to a Holder under this Agreement may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by such party;

10


Table of Contents

provided, however, that (a) such transfer may otherwise be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, (b) prior written notice of such assignment is given to the Company and (c) such transferee or assignee (i) is a subsidiary, affiliated partnership, affiliate or partner or limited liability company member (including limited partners, retired partners, spouses and ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such partners or spouses who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) of such Holder or (ii) acquires from such Holder at least 500,000 Registrable Securities (as adjusted for any stock dividends paid in Registrable Securities, and combinations, stock splits, recapitalization and the like each with respect to shares of Registrable Securities).

     SECTION 14 Termination of Rights. The rights of any particular Holder to cause the Company to register securities under Section 6 shall terminate with respect to such Holder upon the earlier of (i) five (5) years from the date hereof or (ii) such time as the Holders own shares of Common Stock, or shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Registrable Securities, which in the aggregate are less than 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock and the Holders may sell all of their Registrable Securities without registration pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act in any and all three-month period.

EXHIBIT 5

VOID AFTER 5:00 P.M. PACIFIC TIME ON JANUARY [_], 2011

WARRANTS TO PURCHASE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

REDBACK NETWORKS INC.

NEITHER THIS WARRANT NOR THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK WHICH MAY BE PURCHASED PURSUANT TO THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT (THE “WARRANT SHARES,” AND TOGETHER WITH THIS WARRANT, THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS WARRANT MUST BE SURRENDERED TO THE COMPANY OR ITS TRANSFER AGENT AS A CONDITION PRECEDENT TO THE SALE, PLEDGE OR OTHER TRANSFER OF ANY INTEREST IN ANY OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS WARRANT.

     THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, [                   ] together with its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Holder”) is the holder of [                   ] Warrants (the “Warrants”), and is thereby entitled to subscribe for and purchase from REDBACK NETWORKS INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares equal to the Warrants (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 hereof) (the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at the purchase price of U.S. Five Dollars (U.S. $5.00) (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 hereof) (the “Exercise Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. This Warrant will expire and will no longer be exercisable after 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on January [_], 2011 (the “Expiration Date”).

     1. Exercise Rights.

          (a) Cash Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder at any time during the term hereof, in whole or in part, by surrender of this Warrant with the NOTICE OF EXERCISE (CASH EXERCISE) section of this Warrant completed and duly executed, accompanied by payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Exercise Price then in effect multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased by the Holder in connection with such cash exercise of this Warrant, which amount may be paid, at the election of the Holder, by wire transfer or delivery of a certified check payable to the order of the Company to the principal offices of the Company.

          (b) Net Issue Exercise. In lieu of exercising the purchase rights represented by this Warrant on a cash basis pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof, the Holder may elect to exercise such rights represented by this Warrant at any time during the term hereof, in whole or in part, on a net-issue basis by electing to receive the number of Warrant Shares which are equal in value to the value of this Warrant (or any portion thereof to be canceled in connection with such net-issue exercise) at the time of any such net-issue exercise, by delivery to the principal offices of the Company of this Warrant and with the NOTICE

 


Table of Contents

OF EXERCISE (NET-ISSUE EXERCISE) section of this Warrant completed and duly executed, properly marked to indicate (A) the number of Warrant Shares to be delivered to the Holder in connection with such net-issue exercise, (B) the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant is being surrendered in payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares to be delivered to the Holder in connection with such net-issue exercise, calculated as of the Determination Date (as defined below) and (C) the number of Warrant Shares which remain subject to the Warrant after such net-issue exercise, if any (each as determined in accordance with this Section 1(b)). In the event that the Holder will elect to exercise the rights represented by this Warrant in whole or in part on a net-issue basis pursuant to this Section 1(b), the Company will issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined in accordance with the following formula: X = Y (A-B) / A. For purposes of this formula, X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder in connection with such net-issue exercise; Y = the number of Warrant Shares to be exercised, up to the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant; A = the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock; and B = the Exercise Price in effect as of the date of such net-issue exercise (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 hereof).

          (c) Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section 1, the “Fair Market Value” of the Common Stock will have the following meanings: (i) If the Common Stock is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or admitted for trading on a national market or other quotation system, then the Fair Market Value of Common Stock will be deemed to be the closing price quoted on the principal securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed for trading, or if not so listed, the average of the closing bid and asked prices for Common Stock quoted on the national market or other quotation system on which Common Stock is admitted for trading, each as published in the Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal (or, if such prices are not published in the Western Edition of the Wall Street Journal, as reported by the applicable authority or association governing trading of the Common Stock), in each case for the ten trading days prior to the Determination Date; and (ii) if the Common Stock is not listed for trading on a national securities exchange or admitted for trading on a national market or other quotation system, then the Fair Market Value of Common Stock will be deemed to be the fair market value of Common Stock as determined in good faith from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) as at the Determination Date, and receipt and acknowledgment of this Warrant by the Holder will be deemed to be an acknowledgment and acceptance of any such determination of the fair market value of Common Stock by the Board of Directors as the final and binding determination of such Fair Market Value for purposes of this Warrant. The “Determination Date” of Fair Market Value will be the date indicated on the Notice of Exercise (Net Issue Exercise); provided, however, that if the Company does not receive the Notice of Exercise (Net Issue Exercise) within five (5) business days of the date indicated thereon, the Determination Date will be the date the Company receives the Notice of Exercise (Net Issue Exercise).

          (d) Certain Distributions. The Company will provide the Holder with prior written notice of any Distribution (as defined below) to be made by the Company after the date hereof and prior to the expiration of this Warrant. Such notice will be delivered to the Holder not less than twenty (20) days prior to the record date for determining stockholders entitled to receive the Distribution. “Distribution” will mean a distribution by the Company to all holders of its shares of Common Stock (i) evidences of indebtedness of the Company to its stockholders, (ii) assets (excluding cash distributions made as a dividend payable out of the lesser of the undistributed earnings for the fiscal year during which the dividend is declared and the retained earnings of the Company) or (iii) rights to subscribe to shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that the foregoing will not apply to any stockholder rights plan of the Company.

 


Table of Contents

          (e) Fractional Shares; Record Ownership of Warrant Shares; Stock Certificates. Upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the Company will not be obligated to issue fractional shares of Common Stock, and in lieu thereof, the Company will pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such exercise multiplied by such fraction (rounded to the nearest cent). The Warrant Shares will be deemed to have been issued, and the person in whose name any certificate representing Warrant Shares will be issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant (as indicated in the Notice of Exercise) will be deemed to have become the holder of record of (and will be treated for all purposes as the record holder of) the Warrant Shares represented thereby, immediately prior to the close of business on the date or dates upon which the rights represented by this Warrant are exercised in accordance with the terms hereof. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased pursuant hereto will be delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or has expired, a new Warrant representing the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant will not have been exercised will also be issued to the Holder within such time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Warrant, the obligation of the Company to deliver Warrant Shares upon any exercise of this Warrant will be subject to compliance with any law, rule, regulation, order, decree or other similar authority that may be applicable to such issuance. The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will be made without charge to the Holder for any issuance tax in respect thereof; provided, however, that the Company will not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the Holder of this Warrant.

     2. Adjustment Rights.

          (a) Right to Adjustment. The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, and the Exercise Price therefor, will be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows:

               (i) Reclassifications. In the event of a reclassification of the Common Stock other than by stock split, subdivision, consolidation or combination thereof, the Company will execute a new Warrant, the terms of which provide that the holder of this Warrant will have the right to exercise the rights represented by such new Warrant, and procure upon such exercise and payment of the same aggregate Exercise Price then in effect, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock previously issuable upon exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification by a holder of an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock at the time of such reclassification. Such new Warrant will provide for adjustments which are as equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 2. The provisions of this Section 2(a)(i) will apply with equal force and effect to all successive reclassifications of the Common Stock.

               (ii) Stock Splits, Capital Stock Dividends, Combinations and Consolidations. In the event of a stock split, capital stock dividend or subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior to such stock split, capital stock dividend or subdivision will be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price then in effect will be proportionately decreased, effective at the close of business on the date of such stock split, capital stock dividend or subdivision, as the case may be.

 


Table of Contents

Conversely, in the event of a reverse stock split, consolidation, combination or other similar event of or in respect of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior to such reverse stock split, consolidation, combination or other similar event will be proportionately decreased and the Exercise Price will be proportionately increased, effective at the close of business on the date of such reverse stock split, consolidation, combination or other similar event, as the case may be; provided, however, that the reverse stock split with respect to the Company’s Common Stock which is to occur as part of that certain Plan of Reorganization of the Company which was confirmed by order of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware on December 22, 2003 shall not give rise to any adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant or of the Exercise Price. Nothing in this Warrant will entitle the Holder to receive any capital stock dividend or other distribution to all of the Company’s stockholders until this Warrant will have been exercised.

               (iii) Merger or Consolidation. If at any time there will be effected a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, or a sale of all or substantially of the Company’s assets, in such way that holders of Common Stock will be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for their Common Stock, then, as a part of such merger, consolidation or sale, lawful provision will be made so that the Holder will thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of its rights to purchase the Warrant Shares, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property resulting from such merger, consolidation or sale, equivalent to that which a holder of the Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of the right to purchase the Warrant Shares under this Warrant would have been entitled in such merger, consolidation or sale if the right to purchase the Warrant Shares had been exercised immediately prior to such transaction. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) will be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this Warrant (including adjustments of the Exercise Price and number of shares of Common Stock purchasable pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant) will be applicable after the transaction, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other securities or property deliverable after that transaction upon the exercise of the Holder’s rights to purchase the Warrant Shares.

          (b) Adjustment Notices. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, and any increase or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant, in accordance with this Section 2, the Company thereafter will give written notice thereof to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company, which notice will state the Exercise Price as adjusted and, if applicable, the increased or decreased number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation of each such adjustment.

     3. Transfer of Warrant. This Warrant and the rights represented hereby may only be transferred in accordance with the conditions set forth in this Section 3. This Warrant and the rights represented hereby may be transferred in whole or in part. In order to effect any transfer or partial transfer of this Warrant, the Holder hereof will deliver this Warrant to the Company with the NOTICE OF TRANSFER section of this Warrant completed and duly executed.

     4. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Holder that this Warrant has been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,

 


Table of Contents

insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally, by an implied covenant of good faith, reasonableness and fair dealing and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The Warrant Shares have been duly and validly authorized and reserved for issuance by the Company upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant and, when issued upon the exercise of such rights in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the Warrant Shares will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock. At all times during the term hereof, the Company will have authorized and reserved for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.

     5. No Stockholder Rights. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 2 of this Warrant, the Holder (and any transferee hereof) will not be entitled to vote on matters submitted for the approval or consent of the stockholders of the Company or to receive dividends or other distributions declared on or in respect of shares of Common Stock, or otherwise be deemed to be the holder of Common Stock or any other capital stock or other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby for any purpose, nor will anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder (or any transferee hereof) any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted for the approval or consent of the stockholders, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, merger or consolidation, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant will have been exercised and the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby will have become deliverable as provided herein.

     6. Miscellaneous. This Warrant and all actions arising out of or in connection with this Warrant will be governed by the internal laws of the State of California as applied to agreements made and performed in California by residents of California. Subject to the restrictions on transfer described in Section 3, the rights and obligations of the Company and the Holder of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties. This Warrant may be terminated in advance of the Expiration Date, and any provision of this Warrant may be amended, waived or modified upon written consent of the Company and the Holder or (ii) the written consent of the Company. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or by recognized overnight courier, or delivered by personal delivery at the respective addresses of the parties as set forth in this Section 6 or on the register maintained by the Company, or, as to each party, at such other address as will be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party. Notices to the Company will be directed to it at its address at Redback Networks Inc., 300 Holger Way, San Jose, California 95134; Attn: Chief Financial Officer. Notices to the Holder will be directed to it at its address at Technology Crossover Ventures, 528 Ramona Street, Palo Alto California 94301, Attention Carla Newell, with a copy to Technology Crossover Ventures, 56 Main Street, Suite 210, Milburn, New Jersey 07041, Attention: Robert C. Bensky. Any party hereto may by notice so given change its address for future notice hereunder. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, notice will conclusively be deemed to have been given when received. In case any provision of this Warrant is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any other means, directly or indirectly, avoid or seek to

 


Table of Contents

avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant and will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of this Warrant against impairment. The Company will at no time close its transfer books against the transfer of this Warrant or of any Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant in any matter which interferes with a timely exercise of such rights. The Company will not, by any action, seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith seek to carry out all such terms and take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder under this Warrant against impairment. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company at the Holder’s expense will execute and deliver to the Holder, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like date and tenor.
