Neither the execution or delivery of any such agreement by any such person, nor the carrying on by any such person, as an employee, consultant or independent contractor, of Seller's business as currently conducted has or will conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any of such persons is obligated.

Seller, with respect to the Business: (i) has never been and is not now subject to a union organizing effort; (ii) is not subject to any collective bargaining agreement with respect to any Employee; (iii) is not subject to any other Contract with any trade or labor union, employees' association or similar organization and (iv) has no current labor disputes and has had no material labor disputes or claims of unfair labor practices. To Seller's knowledge, Seller has good labor relations with the Employees, and Seller has no knowledge of any facts indicating that the consummation of the transactions provided for herein will adversely affect such labor relations, and Seller has no knowledge that any Employee intends to leave Seller's employ or to decline to accept employment with Purchaser following the Closing. No Employee has given written notice that such Employee intends to terminate his or her employment with Seller. There are no strikes, material slowdowns, work stoppages or lockouts, or threats thereof by or with respect to any Employees. (c) Schedule 4.16(c) contains a list of all employment and consulting agreements and Employee Plans. Seller has made available true and complete copies or descriptions of all the Employee Plans to Purchaser's legal counsel. No Employee Plan is a "multiemployer plan" within the meaning of Section 3(37) or ERISA, and no Employee Plan is subject to Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code. Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates has incurred any Liability under Title IV of ERISA arising in connection with the termination of any plan covered or previously covered by Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code that could become, after the Closing, an obligation of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates. Each Employee Plan which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and has been so qualified during the period from its adoption to date, and each trust forming a part thereof is exempt from Tax pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code. No Employee will become entitled to any retirement, severance or similar benefit or enhanced benefit solely as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, within the past five years, Seller has never been a participant in any "prohibited transaction," within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA with respect to any employee pension benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA) which it sponsors as employer or in which it participates as an employer, which was not otherwise exempt pursuant to Section 408 of ERISA (including any individual exemption granted under Section 408(a) of ERISA), or which could result in an excise Tax under the Code. No Employee Plan provides, or has any liability to provide, retiree life insurance, retiree health or other retiree employee welfare benefits to any person for any reason, except as may be required by COBRA or other applicable statute, and Seller has never represented, promised or contracted (whether in oral or written form) to any Employee (either individually or to Employees as a group) or any other person that such Employee(s) or other person would be provided with retiree life insurance, retiree health or other retiree employee welfare benefit, except to the extent required by statute. Each Employee Plan has been established, maintained and administered in material compliance with its terms and conditions and with the requirements prescribed by any and all statutory or regulatory laws that are applicable to such Employee Plan. The full text of Seller's 2004 Data Transit Severance Plan is included in Schedule 4.16(c). 35 (d) Except as provided in Schedule 4.16(d), no Employee holds any visa from the United States government, and Seller is not sponsoring any Employees with respect to any visa or other authorization. All Employees were hired in compliance with all laws, statutes, regulations and requirements for the lawful hiring of employees who are not citizens of the United States of America. (e) Except as provided in Schedule 4.16(e) and as otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement, the execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (either alone or upon the occurrence of any additional or subsequent events) constitute an event under any Employee Plan, trust or loan that will or may result in any payment (whether of severance pay or otherwise), acceleration, forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, increase in benefits or obligation to fund benefits with respect to any Employee. (f) To Seller's knowledge, no Employee is in material violation of any term of any employment Contract or any restrictive covenant relating to the right of any such Employee to be employed by Seller or to use trade secrets or proprietary information of others, and the employment of any Employee does not subject Seller to any liability to any third party. (g) The group health plans (as defined in Section 4980B(g) of the Code) that benefit Employees are in compliance, in all material respects, with the continuation coverage requirements of Section 4980B of the Code. There are no material outstanding, uncorrected violations under COBRA with respect to any of the Employee Plans that could materially adversely affect the Business or the Purchased Assets after the Closing. 4.17 No Representations to Employees. Seller has made no representation to any employee (including any Employee), consultant or contractor of Seller, or any subsidiary or other affiliate of Seller, that Purchaser will hire or retain as a consultant any of its employees, consultants or contractors. 4.18 Environmental Compliance. The Purchased Assets have at all times been operated in compliance with all approvals, permits, licenses, clearances, consents and other authorizations required under all Environmental Laws for the conduct of the Business and in a manner that would not result in liability to Purchaser or adversely affect Purchaser's operation of the Purchased Assets under any Environmental Law. The Purchased Assets will be delivered to Purchaser free of all Hazardous Substances the presence of which constitutes a violation of any Environmental Law. 4.19 Product Liability. Except as provided in Schedule 4.21, to Seller's knowledge, Seller has no liability (and there is no reasonably meritorious basis for, or threat of, any present or future action, suit, 36 proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim or demand against Seller reasonably expected to give rise to any liability) arising out of any injury to individuals or property as a result of the ownership, possession or use of any Seller Product or prototype of any Seller Product manufactured or delivered by Seller or any subsidiary or other affiliate of Seller prior to the Closing Date. 4.20 Contracts; Customers.

Seller agrees not to transfer the Purchaser Securities in violation of the provisions of any applicable federal or state securities laws. In this connection, Seller represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 and Rule 145 promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. Seller understands that the offering and sale of the Purchaser Securities is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of the private placement exemption provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, based, in part, upon the representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement, and Purchaser may rely on such representations, warranties and agreements in connection therewith.

The financial condition and investments of Seller are such that Seller is in a financial position to hold the Purchaser Securities for an indefinite period of time and to bear the economic risk of, and withstand a complete loss of, its investment in the Purchaser Securities. Seller has carefully examined this Agreement and all exhibits and schedules thereto and the Purchaser SEC Filings.

If, in order properly to prepare documents required to be filed with Governmental Authorities (including Tax authorities) or its financial statements, it is necessary that any party hereto or any successors be furnished with additional information relating to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, or the Business, and such information is in the possession of any other party hereto, such party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly furnish such information to the party needing such information, at the cost and expense of the party being furnished such information. From and after the date of this Agreement and continuing beyond the Closing, Seller and Stockholder shall cooperate with Purchaser and provide to Purchaser at Purchaser's expense all financial information that may be required to enable Purchaser to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and any governmental filing requirements, with respect to reporting and reflecting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 6.8 Discharge of Excluded Liabilities.

Amended 2001 Incentive Compensation Plan in the form previously provided to Purchaser and shall commit to pay to the participants of such plan in a manner based upon previous awards of benefits under such plan as previously disclosed to Purchaser, which commitments may, subject to the plan's terms, obligate Seller to make cash distributions to participants in an aggregate amount up to $2,158,000. (c) So that Seller may assign same to Purchaser as provided in this Agreement, Stockholder shall assign to Seller by execution of documentation and other actions required in connection therewith, in each case in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, all of Stockholder's issued patents, provisional patents and patent applications.

(h) Beginning on the date of this Agreement and continuing through Closing, (i) Seller shall cease all deliveries of any Products to Customers and any other actions (including invoicing Customers for any Products) that could constitute consummation of sales or otherwise cause revenues to be recognized, provided that if Closing does not occur within 10 Business Days following the date hereof, Seller may resume Product deliveries, so long as the Current Customer Backlog updated to Closing continues to exceed $350,000 and (ii) Seller shall cease any inventory returns, provided that if Closing 50 does not occur within 10 Business days following the date hereof, Seller may resume inventory returns, so long as the book value of inventory at any such time does not decrease below the book value at the date hereof as a result of any returns. (i) Contemporaneously with the execution hereof, Seller shall purchase from Purchaser eight (8) Xgig Analyzers (version 1.6) for 4 Gig Fibre Channel for an aggregate purchase price of $350,000 and the obligation for such purchase shall remain an Excluded Liability. ARTICLE VII. COVENANTS OF PURCHASER 7.1 Advice of Changes. Purchaser will promptly notify Seller in writing of any event occurring subsequent to the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date that would render any representation or warranty of Purchaser contained in this Agreement, if made on or as of the date of that event or the Closing Date untrue or inaccurate in any material respect. 7.2 Regulatory Approvals. Prior to the Closing, Purchaser will execute and file, or join in the execution and filing, of any application or other document that may be necessary in order to obtain the authorization, approval or consent of any Governmental Authority that may be reasonably required in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, approvals and consents. 7.3 Satisfaction of Conditions Precedent. Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy or cause to be satisfied all the conditions precedent to the Closing hereunder, and to cause the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to obtain all consents and authorizations of third parties and to make all filings with, and give all notices to, third parties which may be necessary or reasonably required on its part in order to effect the transaction contemplated hereby. 7.4 Discharge of Assumed Liabilities.

The parties acknowledge that the Confidentiality Agreement is binding upon the parties hereto and in full force and effect, except to the extent that the provisions hereof supersede provisions to similar effect contained in the Confidentiality Agreement. The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement (exclusive of such superseded provisions) are incorporated in this Agreement by this reference. 8.2 Publicity. Except as may otherwise be required by law, Purchaser shall make or cause to be made any public announcements in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein or otherwise communicate with any news media in its reasonable discretion following consultation with Dale Smith. Except as may otherwise be required by law, neither Seller nor Stockholder shall make or cause to be made any public announcements in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein or otherwise communicate with any news media without the prior written consent of Purchaser. Nothing contained in this Section shall prevent any party at any time from furnishing any information pursuant to the requirements of any Governmental Authority. 8.3 Restrictions on Transferability of Purchaser Securities. The Promissory Note and certificates representing the shares of Purchaser Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall bear a legend as provided in the Purchaser Note. The Purchaser Securities shall not be transferable in the absence of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom or in the absence of compliance with any term of this Agreement. In the absence of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, neither the Purchaser Common Stock nor any interest therein shall be sold, transferred, assigned or otherwise disposed of, unless Purchaser shall have previously received an opinion of counsel knowledgeable in federal securities law, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and accompanied by such supporting documents as Purchaser may reasonably request, to the effect that registration under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such disposition. Purchaser shall be entitled to give stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent with respect to the Purchaser Securities in order to enforce the foregoing restrictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser agrees that it shall not require an opinion of counsel in connection with Rule 144 transactions except in unusual circumstances. Purchaser shall be obligated to reissue promptly an unlegended Promissory Note or stock certificates if Seller shall request such reissuance and shall have obtained an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to Purchaser to the effect that the securities proposed to be disposed of may lawfully be disposed of without registration, qualification or legend. 52 8.4 Form S-3 Registration Statement. (a) Within fourteen (14) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and file with the SEC, and shall use all reasonable efforts to cause to become effective within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, a registration statement (the "Registration Statement") on Form S-3 or on such other form as is then available under the Securities Act covering the issuance of shares of Purchaser Common Stock upon conversion of the Promissory Note (the "Registrable Securities"); provided, however, that Seller shall provide all such information and materials to Purchaser and take all such action as may be required in order to permit Purchaser to comply with all applicable requirements of the SEC and to obtain any desired acceleration of the effective date of such Registration Statement. Such provision of information and materials is a condition precedent to the obligations of Purchaser pursuant to this Section 8.4. The offering made pursuant to such registration shall not be underwritten. (b) Notwithstanding Section 8.4(a), Purchaser shall be entitled to postpone the filing or declaration of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for a reasonable period of time up to sixty (60) calendar days after the deadlines therefore set forth in Section 8.4(a) if Purchaser determines that there exists material nonpublic information about Purchaser which would be required by the Securities Act to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, the disclosure of which, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of Purchaser, would be detrimental to Purchaser. (c) Subject to the limitations of Section 8.4(b), Purchaser shall: (i) prepare and file the Registration Statement with the SEC in accordance with Section 8.4(a) with respect to the Registrable Securities and shall use all reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable after filing and to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective until the earlier to occur of: (A) the date that all of the Registrable Securities would be eligible for resale under Rule 144(k) or a successor provision, or (B) the date on which Seller shall have sold all the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement (the "Registration Period"); (ii) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary during the Registration Period; and (iii) furnish to Seller such number of copies of any prospectus (including any preliminary prospectus and any amended or supplemented prospectus) in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents Seller may reasonably request in order to effect the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold. Prior to the filing with the SEC of any Registration Statement (including any amendments thereto) and the distribution or delivery of any prospectus (including any supplements thereto), Purchaser will (A) provide draft copies thereof to the Seller and reasonably discuss such documents with the Seller (and its counsel) and (B) furnish to Seller and its legal counsel identified to the Purchaser, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the Commission, or received by the Company, one copy of the registration statement, each prospectus, and each amendment or supplement thereto, and (ii) such number of copies of the prospectus and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents, as Seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the 53 disposition of the Registrable Securities. Purchaser shall promptly provide to Seller copies of all correspondence and communications received from the SEC regarding the registration of the Registrable Securities. (d) All expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 8.4, including without limitation, all registration, filing and qualification fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for Purchaser and expenses of any special audits incidental to or required by such registration, shall be borne by Purchaser, except Purchaser shall not be required to pay (i) fees of legal counsel of Seller and (ii) underwriters' fees, discounts or commissions relating to the Registrable Securities. (e) Purchaser shall use its best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as Seller reasonably requests, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (w) make any change to its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 8.4(e), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller of the receipt by Purchaser of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or "blue sky" laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose. (f) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or development, Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, nonpublic information), and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or amendment to Seller. Purchaser shall also promptly notify Seller in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to Seller by facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness), (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of 54 Purchaser's reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate. (g) In the event the number of shares available under the Registration Statement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, Purchaser shall amend the Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement, or both, so as to cover all of such Registrable Securities as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after the necessity therefore arises. Purchaser shall use it best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof. For purposes of the foregoing provision, the number of shares available under the Registration Statement shall be deemed "insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities" if at any time the number of Registrable Securities issuable during the Registration Period is greater than the number of shares available for resale under such Registration Statement. (h) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.4, Purchaser shall have the right at any time to require that Seller suspend further open market offers and sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement whenever, and for so long as, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser in good faith after consultation with counsel, there is or may be in existence material undisclosed information or events with respect to Purchaser (the "Suspension Right"). In the event Purchaser exercises the Suspension Right, such suspension will continue only for the period of time reasonably necessary for disclosure to occur at a time that is not materially detrimental to Purchaser and its stockholders or until such time as the information or event is no longer material, each as determined in good faith by Purchaser after consultation with counsel. Purchaser will use all reasonable efforts to limit the length of any suspension to thirty (30) calendar days or less. (i) Purchaser will indemnify Seller and each of its officers, directors and stockholders, and each person controlling Seller within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against all expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, 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 registration, qualification or compliance effected pursuant to this Section 8.4, 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 or any alleged violation by Purchaser of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and Purchaser will reimburse Seller, each of its officers and directors, and each person controlling Seller, 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, provided that Purchaser will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or 55 expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Purchaser by Seller or controlling person and specifically for use therein. (j) It shall be a condition to Purchaser's obligations hereunder to register the Registrable Securities of Seller that Seller agrees to, and Seller hereby does agree to, (i) indemnify Purchaser, each of Purchaser's directors and officers, and each person who controls Purchaser 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, 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 (ii) reimburse Purchaser, its directors, officers, persons 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 Purchaser by Seller specifically for use therein. (k) Each party entitled to indemnification under Section 8.4(i) or 8.4(j) (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 differing or potentially differing 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 not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under Section 8.4(i) or 8.4(j) unless 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, 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. (l) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8.4 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Person under 56 subsection (i) or (j) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party or by such Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Seller, Stockholder and Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (l) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection (l). The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. In no event shall Seller be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds to be received by Seller or Stockholder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities are to be registered under the Securities Act. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 8.5 Tax Allocation. Seller, Stockholder and Purchaser shall cooperate in the preparation of a joint schedule (the "Allocation Schedule") allocating the Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities (the "Section 1060 Purchase Price") among the Purchased Assets and the Covenant Not to Compete. If Seller and Purchaser are able to agree upon the Allocation Schedule within 20 Business Days following the Closing Date, Seller and Purchaser shall each file IRS Form 8594, and all federal, state, local and foreign Tax Returns, in accordance with the Allocation Schedule. If Purchaser and Seller are unable to complete the Allocation Schedule within 20 Business Days following the Closing Date, each of Seller and Purchaser may file IRS Form 8594 and any federal, state, local and foreign Tax Returns, allocating the Section 1060 Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets and the Covenant Not to Compete in the manner each believes appropriate, provided such allocation is reasonable and in accordance with Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations thereunder. 8.6 Taxes and Facility Costs. 57 (a) Seller and Stockholder on the one hand and Purchaser on the other hand shall each be responsible for 50 percent of any and all Transfer Taxes. The amount of any Transfer Taxes shall be determined by reference to the Allocation Schedule or, if the Allocation Schedule is not agreed to as provided herein, by reference to Purchaser's allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets. The party that is responsible under applicable law for preparing and filing a Transfer Tax Return (the "Paying Party") shall prepare and timely file such Tax Return, and shall timely remit amounts due under each Tax Return to the appropriate Tax authority. Prior to the 24th day of the month in which Closing occurs (or if the Closing Date is on or after the 24th day of a month, the 24th day of the next month), the other party (the "Reimbursing Party") shall pay to the Paying Party one-half of the amount of any Transfer Taxes determined in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 8.6(a) by check or wire transfer. To the extent that the amount of Transfer Taxes is later determined as a result of an audit by a Tax authority or claim for refund to be different than the amount shown on any Tax Return then, if the amount determined to be due is greater, the Reimbursing Party shall promptly pay to the Paying Party, and if the amount determined to be due is less, the Paying Party shall promptly reimburse the Reimbursing Party, one-half of such difference. The parties shall cooperate to the extent reasonably requested to minimize the imposition of Transfer Taxes, including but not limited to Purchaser providing a resale certificate with respect to the Inventory. (b) With respect to any real or personal property Taxes (or other similar Taxes) relating to the Purchased Assets for which Tax Returns have been filed by Seller prior to the Closing Date, and such Tax Returns cover a taxable period ending after the Closing (a "Straddle Period"), Purchaser shall pay Seller at Closing the portion of any such Taxes shown to be due on such Tax Returns attributable to any Tax period (or portion thereof) beginning immediately after the Closing, determined on a per diem basis, and Seller shall timely remit the full amount of such Taxes to the appropriate Tax authority. With respect to any real or personal property Taxes (or other similar Taxes) attributable to the Purchased Assets for which Tax Returns have not been filed prior to the Closing Date, and such Tax Returns cover a Straddle Period, Purchaser shall prepare and timely file, and shall timely make all payments required with respect to, any such Tax Returns; provided, however, that Seller will promptly reimburse Purchaser upon receipt of a copy of the filed Tax Return to the extent any payment made by Purchaser is attributable to any Tax period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date, determined on a per diem basis. To the extent that the amount of any such real or personal property Taxes (or other similar Taxes) is later determined as a result of an audit by a Tax authority or claim for refund to be different than the amount shown on any such Tax Return, Purchaser shall promptly pay to Seller, or Seller shall promptly pay to Purchaser, as applicable, one-half of any such difference. (c) Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that (i) Seller will be responsible for and will perform all Tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid by Seller to any New Purchaser Employee prior to or on the Closing, and (ii) Purchaser will be responsible for and will perform all Tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid by Purchaser to any New Purchaser Employee after the Closing. 58 (d) With respect to any rent, percentage rent charges, other charges under the Lease or utility costs associated with the Facility under the Lease, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller at Closing the portion of such payments previously made by Seller attributable to any period occurring after the Closing, determined on a per diem basis. 8.7 Advance to Seller. In the event that the Registration Statement is not effective on or before November 1, 2004 for any reason, Purchaser shall advance the sum of $1,000,000 to Seller as an unsecured commercial loan which shall be evidenced by a promissory note executed by Seller that shall bear simple interest at the annual rate of 8% and that shall be repayable to Purchaser on or before 30 days following the maturity and repayment in full of the Purchaser Note. The $1,000,000 note shall be in a mutually acceptable customary form. 8.8 New Purchaser Employees. (a) Prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser will make offers (with base compensation equal to or greater than their current base compensation as disclosed to Purchaser) of full-time employment (to be effective as of the Closing Date) to at least 24 Employees (in addition to Dale Smith), including the Key Business Employees, such offers to be conditioned upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby at the Closing. All obligations of Seller or Stockholder to all Employees through the Closing Date, including any obligations for salary, sales commissions, bonus compensation, payroll taxes, accrued vacation, fringe benefits and severance pay, are and shall remain, the sole obligations of Seller or Stockholder, respectively. (b) All employment arrangements between Purchaser and any New Purchaser Employees will be negotiated directly between Purchaser and such employee, and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any and all claims arising from Purchaser's negotiations with or hiring and employment of such Employees. (c) Purchaser shall provide terms of employment to New Purchaser Employees, including salaries and stock options commensurate with seniority and experience, subject to the terms of Purchaser's existing employment policies and plans, including vesting provisions. Purchaser would also provide such other employment benefits as Purchaser customarily makes available to its employees.

(a) Seller shall, from time to time, at the reasonable request of Purchaser, and without further consideration, execute and deliver such instruments of transfer, conveyance and assignment in addition to those delivered pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof, and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to assign, transfer, convey and vest in Purchaser, and to put Purchaser in possession of, the Purchased Assets. In the event that any subsidiary or affiliate of Seller (including Stockholder) owns or holds rights to any of the Purchased Assets, Seller and Stockholder jointly and severally covenant and agree to cause each such subsidiary or affiliate to take whatever action and execute whatever documents as are necessary to implement this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. From and after the date of the Closing, Seller agrees to convey, transfer, and assign to Purchaser, free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than Permitted Encumbrances, any tangible or intangible rights, properties or assets then held by Seller the conveyance, transfer or assignment of which would have been necessary for the representations and warranties of Seller herein to be true and correct as of the date of the Closing, or the conveyance, transfer or assignment of which was or is required by the covenants of Seller contained in this Agreement. Purchaser will be allowed to visually inspect and verify and confirm the condition of the Purchased Assets before crating in accordance with generally accepted standards. (b) If, after the Closing in order properly to utilize the Purchased Assets or prepare documents or reports required to be filed with the Governmental Authorities or prepare Purchaser's financial statements related to the Business or the Purchased Assets, it is reasonably necessary that Purchaser obtain additional information within Seller's or Stockholder's possession, Seller shall furnish or cause its representatives to furnish such information to Purchaser as promptly as possible. Seller shall maintain and make available the information and records specified in this Section for a period of three (3) years after the Closing. (c) After the Closing, at Purchaser's request, Seller and Stockholder will assist Purchaser, upon its request, to the extent reasonable, in the determination of the legitimacy of any product return and warranty claim with respect to Products. The items noted on Schedule 10.1 constitute Purchased Assets and will be transferred after Closing upon satisfaction of the conditions noted on Schedule 10.1. 10.2 Further Assurances of Purchaser. Purchaser shall, from time to time at the request of Seller, and without further consideration, execute and deliver such instruments of assumption, and take such other action, as may be reasonably necessary to effectively confirm the assumption by Purchaser of the Assumed Liabilities. After the Closing, Purchaser will arrange all product returns and warranty returns for the Products; although its actions in so doing 64 will not reduce the responsibility of Seller or Stockholder with respect thereto pursuant to the other terms of this Agreement. 10.3 Covenant not to Compete. (a) For the three-year period beginning at Closing, each of Seller and Stockholder covenants and agrees that he, she or it will not, anywhere in the world, except as expressly permitted by subsection (b) of this Section 10.3: (i) engage, directly or indirectly, as owner (other than solely as an owner of less than 1% of a publicly traded corporation), partner, stockholder, joint venturer, employee, consultant, licensor, or in any other capacity whatsoever become financially interested, in any business activity which (A) is directly competitive with, or is a contractor or subcontractor for a business activity that is directly competitive with, the Business as currently conducted or currently proposed to be conducted by Seller or (B) is providing or proposes to provide services to that portion of any business that competes directly or indirectly with the Business as currently conducted or currently proposed to be conducted by Seller; (ii) directly or indirectly interfere with or raid the officers, employees, consultants, agents and/or independent contractors of Purchaser or any subsidiary, affiliate or successor of Purchaser then engaged in the Business or any business similar to the Business or in any manner attempt to persuade any such person to discontinue any relationship with such entity; or (iii) directly or indirectly solicit any customer or supplier of the Business to cease doing business with Purchaser or any subsidiary, affiliate or successor of Purchaser then engaged in the Business or any business similar to the Business. (b) For purposes of this Section 10.3, Purchaser, Seller and Stockholder mutually acknowledge that Seller and Stockholder shall retain rental Contracts and rights thereunder with existing Customers concerning analyzer units delivered prior to May 31, 2004 (such items constituting Excluded Assets), on the condition that Seller shall not renew or extend any such rental Contracts and shall not otherwise enter into any similar agreements after Closing with any person or entity, provided that Purchaser shall honor accrued credits against purchase price and offer equivalent products on similar terms. Additionally, Seller shall (i) assist and otherwise cooperate with Purchaser in replacing such Contracts with new rental or other arrangements concerning analyzers manufactured by Purchaser, such arrangements to be between such Customers and Purchaser as determined by Purchaser, (ii) retain in Seller's control and custody all analyzers manufactured by Seller that shall be returned to Seller from former rental Customers and not rent, resell or otherwise market them in any way and (iii) upon an express written request from Purchaser signed by the senior executive in charge of the Network Tools Division of Purchaser, deliver to Purchaser (at Purchaser's cost) components and subcomponents of analyzers formerly subject to the aforementioned rental Contracts as specified in such request. (c) Each of Seller and Stockholder agrees that the time period provided for, and the geographical area encompassed by, the covenants contained in this Section 10.3 are necessary and reasonable in order to protect Purchaser in the conduct of the Business and the utilization of the assets, tangible and intangible, including the goodwill of Seller relating to the Business, acquired by virtue of this Agreement. 65 (d) If any court having jurisdiction at any time hereafter shall hold any provision or clause of this Section 10.3 to be unreasonable as to its scope, territory or term, and if such court in its judgment or decree shall declare or determine that scope, territory or term which such court deems to be reasonable, then such scope, territory or term, as the case may be, shall be deemed automatically to have been reduced or modified to conform to that declared or determined by such court to be reasonable. (e) It is expressly agreed that monetary damages would be inadequate to compensate Purchaser for any breach by Seller or Stockholder of their respective covenants as set forth in this Section 10.3 and, accordingly, that in the event of any breach or threatened breach by Seller or Stockholder of any such covenant, Purchaser will be entitled to seek and obtain preliminary and permanent injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity to which Purchaser may be entitled. 10.4 Name Change. Promptly after the Closing, but in no event later than three (3) Business Days thereafter, Seller will change its name to DJ Holdings, Inc. and otherwise cease using the "Data Transit" name or any variant thereof. 10.5 Collection of Accounts Receivable. Effective immediately upon Closing (and expressly conditioned thereon), Seller hereby appoints Purchaser as its sole and exclusive collection agent for a period of six (6) months following the Closing Date to take whatever measures Purchaser considers appropriate (in a manner consistent with Purchaser's collection efforts concerning its accounts receivable) to collect Seller's accounts receivable outstanding on the Closing Date, provided that Purchaser shall not settle an account receivable for less than face value without Seller's consent. Seller shall furnish Purchaser with the necessary information and provide Purchaser access to Seller's books and records as reasonably necessary to enable Purchaser to perform its duties as collection agent. Purchaser shall remit the proceeds of its efforts to Seller promptly following collection thereof. Neither Seller nor Stockholder (nor any other agent or representative thereof) shall contact accounts receivable debtors during the period of Purchaser's appointment hereunder. 10.6 Post Closing Retention. (a) Immediately after the Closing, in addition to copies of the Assigned Agreements delivered to Purchaser as part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser or destroy copies of any Purchased Assets in Seller's possession or control that are primarily or exclusively related to the Business, whether such copies are in paper form, on computer media or stored in another form. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, and except to the extent lawfully transferable, all Governmental Permits may be retained by Seller. (b) Purchaser shall, at its exclusive cost and expense, retain and preserve in good condition and readable form all items delivered under Section 10.7 (a) 66 for a period of 6 years. If Purchaser chooses not to retain and preserve any such item for such period, Purchaser shall give Seller ninety (90) days prior written notice prior to destroying or ceasing to preserve such item and at Seller's request, return such item to Seller. (c) Seller shall, at its exclusive cost and expense, retain and preserve in good condition and readable form all Books and Records constituting Excluded Assets for a period of 6 years. If Seller chooses not to retain and preserve any such item for such period, Seller shall give Purchaser ninety (90) days prior written notice prior to destroying or ceasing to preserve such item and at Purchaser's request, deliver such item to Purchaser. (d) In the event and for so long as any party actively is contesting or defending against any action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim, or demand in connection with (i) any transaction contemplated under this Agreement or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving any party, each of the other parties shall cooperate with him, her or it and his, her or its counsel in the defense or contest, make available their personnel, and provide such testimony and access to their books and records as shall be necessary in connection with the defense or contest, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending party (unless the contesting or defending party is entitled to indemnification hereunder). ARTICLE XI. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT 11.1 Termination by Purchaser. This Agreement may be terminated at any time before the Closing by action of the Board of Directors of Purchaser upon written notice to Seller, specifying the basis for such termination, if (i) Seller or Stockholder shall have breached in any material respect any of its respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach (A) would cause the conditions in Section 9.3(a) or (b) not to be satisfied and (B) shall not have been cured within ten (10) days following receipt by Seller or Stockholder of written notice of such breach by Purchaser or (ii) through no fault of Purchaser, the Closing shall not have occurred on or before August 31, 2004. 11.2 Termination by Seller.

Any dispute arising under this Article XII shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.16 hereof. (e) Upon determination of the amount of an Indemnification Claim, whether by (i) an agreement between Indemnitor and Indemnitee, (ii) an arbitration award, or (iii) a final judgment (after expiration of all periods for appeal of such judgment) or other final nonappealable order, Indemnitor shall pay the amount of such Indemnification Claim by check or wire transfer within seven (7) Business Days of the date the Indemnitor is notified in writing of such amount. (f) Upon payment of any amount pursuant to any claim for indemnification hereunder, Indemnitor shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all of Indemnitee's rights of recovery against any third party with respect to the matters to which such claim relates. 12.5 Defense of Third Party Claims. Should any claim be made, or suit or proceeding (including, without limitation, a binding arbitration or an audit by any taxing authority) be instituted against Indemnitee which, if prosecuted successfully, would be a matter for which Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (a "Third Party Claim"), the obligations and liabilities of the parties hereunder with respect to such Third Party Claim shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 72 (a) Indemnitee shall give Indemnitor written notice of any such claim promptly after receipt by Indemnitee of notice thereof, and Indemnitor will undertake control of the defense thereof by counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee. Indemnitee may participate in the defense through its own counsel at its own expense. The assumption of the defense of any Third Party Claim by Indemnitor shall not be an acknowledgment by Indemnitor that such Third Party Claim is subject to indemnification under the provisions of this Article XII and that such provisions are binding on Indemnitor. If, however, Indemnitor fails or refuses to undertake the defense of such Third Party Claim within seven (7) Business Days after written notice of such claim has been delivered to Indemnitor by Indemnitee, Indemnitee shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise and, subject to Section 12.6, settlement of such Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing. Failure of Indemnitee to furnish written notice to Indemnitor of a Third Party Claim shall not release Indemnitor from Indemnitor's obligations hereunder, except to the extent Indemnitor is prejudiced by such failure. (b) Indemnitee and Indemnitor shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such claim and furnishing employees of Indemnitee as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of any such Third Party Claim or for testimony as witness in any proceeding relating to such claim. 12.6 Settlement of Third Party Claims. Unless Indemnitor has failed to fulfill its obligations under this Article XII, no settlement by Indemnitee of a Third Party Claim shall be made without the prior written consent by or on behalf of Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If Indemnitor has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim as contemplated by Section 12.5, no settlement of such Third Party Claim may be made by Indemnitor without the prior written consent by or on behalf of Indemnitee which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event of any dispute regarding the reasonableness of a proposed settlement, the party that will bear the larger financial loss resulting from such settlement shall make the final determination in respect thereto, which determination shall be final and binding on all involved parties.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Note shall not be convertible to the extent that such conversion or exercise would result in the Holder owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer at the date of conversion, other than in connection with a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 12(b). (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by the Holder upon any conversion of, or payment of interest on, this Note (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that the voting power represented by the Underlying Shares into which this Note may be converted or with which interest may be paid (together with all Underlying Shares into which this Note shall theretofore have been converted and with which interest shall theretofore have been paid) will not exceed 19.9% of the voting power represented by all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company before such conversion. (iii) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6 to the contrary, from and after such time as the Principal Amount shall have been reduced to $3,188,375 there shall be no further conversions or interest payments until such time as the Earn-out Adjustment Amount shall have been calculated at which time conversions and interest payments shall resume based on the Principal Amount of this Note as established hereunder. (iv) If a conversion or payment of interest hereunder may not be effected in full due to the application of this Section 6(d), the Company shall honor and effect such conversion and interest payment to the extent permissible hereunder and shall promptly deliver to the Holder a Conversion Schedule indicating the Principal Amount which has not been converted. (e) Equity Conditions. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6 to the contrary, if the Equity Conditions are not satisfied on any Conversion Date, then there shall be no conversion or interest payment on such date and the next Conversion Date on which a conversion under subsection 6(a) occurs shall be no earlier than five trading days after the date on which the Equity Conditions are next satisfied; provided that, if the Floor Price shall exceed the Conversion Price on two consecutive Conversion Dates during the Term, item (vii) of the Equity Conditions shall thereafter not be considered in determining whether the Equity Conditions shall have been satisfied. (f) Option to pay in Cash. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6 to the contrary, the Company may pay cash in lieu of issuing Underlying Shares on conversion of the 7 Principal Amount or payment of accrued interest thereon on any Conversion Date without advance notice, so long as such cash payment is greater than or equal to the applicable Conversion and Interest Payment Amount. 7. Mechanics of Conversion. (a) The number of Underlying Shares issuable on each Conversion Date as provided in Section 6 shall equal the Conversion and Interest Payment Amount, divided by the Conversion Price on that Conversion Date (for each conversion, the "CONVERTED SHARES"). (b) Upon each conversion of this Note, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than the second Trading Day following each Conversion Notice) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder a certificate representing the Converted Shares issuable upon such conversion, bearing the following legend, if applicable: THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO FINISAR CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT. (c) Notwithstanding subsection (b) above, the Company shall cause its legal counsel to consult with the Company's transfer agent with a view to causing the certificates representing Converted Shares to be issued without restrictive legends in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The Holder agrees, at the Company's expense, to cooperate with the Company in this regard and to execute certificates, questionnaires and any other documents reasonably requested by the Company's legal counsel for such purpose. (d) The Holder shall be deemed to have become holder of record of such Converted Shares as of the Conversion Date. (e) The Holder shall not deliver the original Note upon a conversion hereunder, except upon the final conversion resulting in payment of the Principal Amount and accrued interest in full, at which time Holder shall deliver this Note marked "Cancelled -- Paid in Full." Rather, execution and delivery of the Conversion Notice shall have the same effect as a prepayment of a portion of the Principal Amount to the extent converted by the issuance of Conversion and Interest Payment Amounts as provided in Section 6. 8. Prepayments. At any time following the Original Issue Date and prior to the Maturity Date, upon delivery of a written notice to the Holder (a "PREPAYMENT NOTICE" and the date such notice is delivered by the Company, the "PREPAYMENT NOTICE DATE"), the Company shall be entitled to prepay in cash all or any part of the Principal Amount (together with the accrued and unpaid interest in the portion so prepaid). Once delivered, the Company shall not be entitled to rescind a Prepayment Notice. The prepayment shall be due on the 5th Trading Day immediately following the Prepayment Notice Date. 9. Events of Default. (a) "EVENT OF DEFAULT" means any default by the Company in the payment or conversion (free of any claim of subordination) of the Principal Amount or interest thereon, as and when the same becomes due and payable (whether on a Conversion Date or the Maturity Date or by acceleration or prepayment or otherwise). (b) At any time or times following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Holder shall have the option to elect, by notice to the Company (an "EVENT NOTICE"), to require the Company to 8 repurchase all or any portion of the Principal Amount, at a repurchase price equal to the balance thereof, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, through the date of payment. The aggregate amount payable pursuant to the preceding sentence is referred to as the "EVENT PRICE." The Company shall pay the aggregate Event Price to the Holder no later than the third Trading Day following the date of delivery of the Event Notice, and upon receipt thereof the Holder shall deliver the original Note. (c) Upon the occurrence of any Bankruptcy Event, all of the Principal Amount and accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall immediately become due and payable in full in cash, without any further action by the Holder, and the Company shall immediately be obligated to repurchase this Note at the Event Price pursuant to the preceding paragraph as if the Holder had delivered an Event Notice immediately prior to the occurrence of such Bankruptcy Event. (d) In connection with any Event of Default, the Holder need not provide and the Company hereby waives any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Any such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by the Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 10. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Converted Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Converted Shares or this Note in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Note or receiving Converted Shares in respect hereof (including receiving the Converted Shares in full or partial payment of the purchase price under the Purchase Agreement). 11. Reservation of Underlying Shares. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Underlying Shares as required hereunder, the number of Underlying Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the conversion of (and otherwise in respect of) this entire Note (taking into account the adjustments contemplated by Section 12), free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder. The Company covenants that all Underlying Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable. The Company covenants that, once the Registration Statement becomes effective, it shall keep the Registration Statement effective as agreed in the Purchase Agreement. 12. Certain Adjustments. Certain provisions of this Note are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 12. (a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, (i) pays or declares a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case an equitable adjustment shall be made such that (A) the Floor Price shall be proportionately adjusted to reflect such event, (B) the Conversion Share Amount, if such event shall occur during a Reference Period, shall be proportionately adjusted to reflect such event and (C) the Conversion Price shall be proportionately and equitably adjusted if, and only if, the effective date for such event is Conversion Date or one of the three Trading Days to be used for the determination of the Conversion Price. Any adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the agreed determination of the Company and the Holder. 9 (b) Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Note is outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, (iv) the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock shares of any class of capital stock of the Company (other than any dividends, distributions and other transactions to which Section 12(a) applies and ordinary dividends and distributions paid exclusively in cash) or evidences of its indebtedness or other assets, including securities, or (v) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than as a result of a subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock covered by Section 12(a) above) (in any such case, a "FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION"), then upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Underlying Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion absent such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of Common Stock (the "ALTERNATE CONSIDERATION"). For purposes of any such conversion, the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Note following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction must issue to the Holder a new note consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to convert such note into Alternate Consideration and deliver an undertaking pursuant to which it will assume the obligation to comply with the provisions of Sections 8.3, 8.4 and 8.9 and Article XIII of the Purchase Agreement with respect to such Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms (i) requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this paragraph (b), (ii) providing that the issuance price of such Alternate Consideration shall at the time of issuance be based on the principles upon which the Underlying Shares are priced hereunder and (iii) insuring that this Note (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Alternate Consideration is cash or is not freely saleable by Holder without restriction under the Securities Act then upon the consummation of such transaction the Holder may elect to convert the Principal Amount and receive cash in connection with such Fundamental Transaction or to have the then Principal Amount (together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon) paid to it in full in cash in connection with such Fundamental Transaction. (c) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 12 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock. (d) Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 12, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare a certificate describing in reasonable detail such adjustment and the transactions giving rise thereto, including all facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder. 10 (e) Notice of Corporate Events. If the Company (i) authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any transaction of the type described by the last sentence of Section 12(b) or (ii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice describing the material terms and conditions of such transaction, at least 10 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction, and the Company will take all steps reasonably necessary in order to insure that the Holder is given the practical opportunity to convert this Note prior to such time so as to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice. 13. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue or cause to be issued fractional Underlying Shares on conversion of this Note. If any fraction of an Underlying Share would, except for the provisions of this Section, be issuable upon conversion of this Note, the number of Underlying Shares to be issued will be rounded up to the nearest whole share. 14. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including without limitation any Conversion Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section prior to 6:30 p.m. (Sunnyvale, California time) on a Trading Day, (ii) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 6:30 p.m. (Sunnyvale, California time) on any Trading Day, (iii) the Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.

Miscellaneous. (a) This Note shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the Holder and the Company and their respective permitted successors and assigns. (b) Subject to Section 15(a), above, nothing in this Note shall be construed to give to any person or corporation other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause under this Note. This Note shall inure to the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Holder. (c) GOVERNING LAW. THE CORPORATE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE SHALL GOVERN ALL ISSUES CONCERNING THE RELATIVE RIGHTS OF THE COMPANY AND ITS STOCKHOLDERS.

(d) The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Note and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. (e) In case any one or more of the provisions of this Note shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Note shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a commercially 11 reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Note. (f) No provision of this Note may be waived or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and the Holder or, in the case of a waiver, by the Holder. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Note shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. (g) In view of the factors involved in the transactions contemplated by this Note, and in particular Sections 6 and 7, the Holder would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages in the event that this Note has not been performed in accordance with its terms. Holder therefore shall be entitled to specific enforcement of the terms hereof in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity.

[Holder or Holder's Agent] By:_____________________________________ Name: Title: 16 SCHEDULE I CALCULATION OF EARN-OUT ADJUSTMENT AMOUNT This Schedule I determines the basis of the Earn-out Report concerning the amount, if any, of the Earn-out Adjustment Amount. One of the Company's objectives in the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement is to acquire a skilled and motivated workforce capable of developing and marketing products. Another of the Company's objectives is the integration of the acquired workforce into the Company's existing workforce, and to effectively use the combined workforce in the Company's business operations. Therefore the value of the acquisition will be measured in part by the Company's attainment of these objectives by completing the goals described below. The Company shall make commercially reasonable efforts to maximize attainment of the goals as described in this Schedule I. Except as otherwise provided in this Schedule I, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the 8% Installment Note to which this Schedule I is attached (the "Note") or the Purchase Agreement, as applicable. Within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of the Earn-out Measurement Period, the Company shall deliver to Seller the Earn-out Report accompanied by the certification of the then most senior executive in charge of the Company's Network Tools Division with respect to its accuracy. The Earn-out Report shall set forth in reasonable detail a determination whether the goals described in Items (a) through (d) of this Schedule I shall have been attained, including sufficient supporting schedules and data, together with the resulting Earn-out Adjustment Amount. The Company agrees to keep books and records in sufficient detail to be able to accurately determine such matters. In the event of a disagreement with respect to the adjustment of the Principal Amount of the Note pursuant to Section 2(a) thereof, the provisions of Section 13.16 of the Purchase Agreement shall apply. The Principal Amount shall be adjusted as provided in Section 2 of the Note as follows: (a) Engineering integration goals - Applicable to 16.66% of the aggregate goals. The Earn-out Report shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for the determination whether the following goals have been attained by the Company: 1) Prior to the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period, a BusDoctor 108 Plus 3G SAS/SATA, BusDoctor 252 Plus 3G SAS/SATA, and PacketMaker 3G product shall be manufactured by and shipped from the Company. 2) Prior to the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period, conduct a feasibility analysis for PacketMaker(TM) utilizing the the Company's XGig chassis. The feasibility analysis includes a report detailing the obstacles and benefits. 3) Prior to the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period, deliver a comprehensive detailed report describing the Organization of all Seller Technology Assets and Documentation describing Seller Technology Assets in electronic form on Seller's computer equipment. 4) Prior to the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period, create a comprehensive Seller personnel knowledge matrix concerning Seller Technology Assets. If all of the four (4) above-listed engineering integration goals shall have been attained at the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period, 16.66% of the aggregate goals shall be considered to have been achieved. If one or more of the four (4) aforementioned goals shall not have been attained, 17 then, for each goal not attained, the aforementioned 16.66% attributable to the goals set forth in this Section (a) shall be reduced by 25%. (b) Manufacturing integration goals - Applicable to 16.67% of the aggregate goals - the following are equally weighted goals. The Earn-out Report shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for the determination whether the following goals have been attained by the Company: 1) Within the first 3 months following the beginning of the Earn-out Measurement Period, (A) all Products in the categories of BusDoctor 108 Plus 3G SAS/SATA, BusDoctor 252 Plus 3G SAS/SATA, and PacketMaker 3G products shall have been manufactured and tested by the Company, using where possible, seller provided inventory and sub-assemblies; and (B) all Seller drawings and test procedures shall have been under the Company ECO control. 2) Prior to the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period, all Products being sold by the Company shall have (A) all drawings and test procedures conforming to the Company standards; all drawings and test procedures under the Company ECO control; and (B) all Bills of Materials and part numbers conforming to the Company standards utilizing the Company part numbers and Bills of Materials database. If both of the above-listed manufacturing integration goals shall have been attained at the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period, 16.67% of the aggregate goals shall be considered to have been achieved. If one or more of the two (2) aforementioned goals shall not have been attained, then, for each goal not attained, the aforementioned 16.67% attributable to the goals set forth in this Section (b) shall be reduced by 50%. (c) Employee retention goals - Applicable to 16.67% of the aggregate goals - "Category One Employees" shall mean Individual Key Employees, as defined in Schedule 1.51 to the Purchase Agreement. "Category Two Employees" shall mean Group Key Employees as defined in Schedule 1.51 to the Purchase Agreement. Should fewer than two Category One Employees resign from the Company before the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period AND should fewer than four Category Two Employees resign before the end of Earn-out Measurement Period, the percentage of the 16.67% of the Deferred Purchase Price payable pursuant to this Subsection (c) shall be 100%. Should fewer than three Category One Employees resign before the end of Earn-out Measurement Period AND should fewer than five Category Two Employees resign before the end of Earn-out Measurement Period, the percentage of the 16.67% of the Deferred Purchase Price payable pursuant to this Subsection (c) shall be 50%. Should three or more Category One Employees resign before the end of Earn-out Measurement Period OR should five or more Category Two Employees resign before the end of Earn-out Measurement Period, the percentage of the 16.67% of the Deferred Purchase Price payable pursuant to this Subsection (c) shall be 0%. The aggregate goals attained attributable to this Subsection (c) shall equal the product of 16.67% multiplied by the applicable percentage provided above, which shall depend on the results of employee retention specified herein. If the applicable percentage is 100% due to the actual employee retention, 16.67% of the aggregate goals shall be considered to have been achieved. 18 (d) MBO goals - Applicable to 50% of the aggregate goals - The Earn-out Report shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for the determination whether the following goal has been attained - Prior to the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period, the acquired workforce shall have performed the following equally weighted tasks: 1) Visit each Business manufacturer's representative and distributor to effect orderly and efficient transition; 2) Visit the location of the user of the Products at each of the top 20 (in 2003 sales volume) Business customers to effect orderly and efficient transition; 3) Comprehensive technical visit (at least three days in duration) to Medusa Laboratories facility in Austin, Texas, followed by a reasonably detailed report recommending how Medusa Laboratories' services and technologies might be more effectively used to increase revenues of the Business; 4) Seven technical sales training sessions (each of which will be at least two days in duration) for the Company's sales force and key customers, three in North America, two each in Asia and Europe; and 5) Comprehensive technical visit (at least five days in duration) to the Company's software development team in Brazil, followed by a reasonably detailed report recommending how such team's services and technologies might be more effectively used to develop software in future Business products. If all of the five (5) above-listed goals shall have been attained at the end of the Earn-out Measurement Period, 50% of the aggregate goals shall have achieved. If any of the five (5) aforementioned goals shall not have been attained, then, for each goal not attained, the aforementioned 50% attributable to the goals set forth in this Section (d) shall be reduced by 20% (i.e. from 50% to 40%). 19 SCHEDULE II CONVERSION SCHEDULE 8% Installment Note due August 5, 2006 in the original principal amount of $16,270,000 issued by Finisar Corporation.

By:___________________________ Title:_________________________ COMPANY: FINISAR CORPORATION By:___________________________ Title:_________________________ 4 EXHIBIT A Client's name: Data Transit Corp. Issuer's name: Finisar Corporation Type of securities: Common Stock Account number:__________ RULE 10b5-1 SALES PLAN AND CLIENT REPRESENTATIONS Data Transit Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Data Transit"), as of the date below, establishes this Sales Plan ("the Plan") in order to sell shares of the Issuer's common stock pursuant to the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). 1. Data Transit requests that Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("Merrill Lynch") execute the Plan as follows: Data Transit has arranged with Finisar Corporation ("the Issuer") for the Issuer periodically to provide written notice to Merrill Lynch and Data Transit that shares have been issued to Data Transit upon each conversion of an 8% Installment Note (the "Note") made by the Issuer and payable to Data Transit ("Conversion Notice"), which Conversion Notice will specify the number of shares issued to Data Transit upon such conversion. Starting on the date of receipt of each such Conversion Notice and subject to applicable regulations, Merrill Lynch will sell at least 80% of the number of shares specified in such Conversion Notice as having been issued upon such conversion (the remaining 20% of such shares are referred to herein as "Carryover Shares") utilizing the principles of best execution in (i) block trades (in which a broker-dealer may resell a portion of the block, as principal, in order to facilitate the transaction); (ii) purchases by a broker-dealer, as principal, and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; or (iii) ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker solicits purchasers on the principal exchange or market on which the shares are traded (the "Exchange") during the period (each a "Selling Period") beginning on such date and ending on the Friday of the week following the week during which such Conversion Notice was delivered to Merrill Lynch. Data Transit has arranged with the Issuer that Merrill Lynch, in its sole discretion (without any influence by Data Transit), may deliver a notice ("Extension Notice") to the Issuer during 1 any Selling Period that such Selling Period shall not end on the aforementioned Friday but instead shall end on the Friday of the third week following the week during which such Conversion Notice was delivered to Merrill Lynch, as long as the Extension Notice is delivered at least two (2) trading days before the end of the then current Selling Period. Such extension of the Selling Period shall be hereinafter referred to as an "Extension". No more than one such Extension Notice may be delivered by Merrill Lynch to the Issuer during any three (3) consecutive Selling Periods, except concerning an Extension arising due to suspensions as provided in Section 2, which shall not be limited. No Conversion Notice shall be issued during a Selling Period or an Extension. Except as provided in Section 2, all such shares issued upon each conversion are to be sold during such Selling Periods as it may be extended in accordance with these provisions; provided that any Carryover Shares are not required to be sold during such Selling Periods, but must be sold during the next succeeding Selling Period, and no Extension shall be required in such event. For example, if Merrill Lynch were to receive a Conversion Notice on Monday, September 13, 2004 that a portion of the Installment Note had been converted and as a result 500,000 shares of the Issuer's common stock had been issued to Data Transit, then Merrill Lynch would during the Selling Period beginning on Monday, September 13, 2004 and ending on the close of business on Friday, September 24, 2004 sell such 500,000 shares. At any time during that Selling Period Merrill Lynch (at least two (2) trading days prior to the end thereof) could deliver an Extension Notice to extend the September 24, 2004 date to October 8, 2004, except that a notice delivered pursuant to Section 2 hereof may be delivered on any day of the Selling Period to which it related. Up to 100,000 of such shares could be carried over and sold during the next succeeding Selling Period even if no Extension Notice had been sent. Sales of the Issuer shares resulting from conversion of the Note shall continue until all of the shares underlying the Note have been issued and sold. 2. SUSPENSION Merrill Lynch may suspend sales allocated under this Plan for any of the following reasons: a. a day specified by the Plan is not a day on which the shares trade regular way on the Exchange; b. trading of the shares on the Exchange is suspended for any reason; 2 c. there has been a material reduction in the trading volume of the shares relative to the volume occurring during the Reference Period (as defined in the Note); d. Merrill Lynch cannot effect a sale of shares due to any legal, regulatory or contractual restrictions applicable to it or any legal or regulatory restrictions applicable to Data Transit (including without limitation, Regulation M); or e. if the shares are being sold pursuant to a registration statement, the termination, expiration, suspension or unavailability of the registration statement; then, notwithstanding the limitations on Extensions set forth in Section 1, (i) Merrill Lynch will use its reasonable efforts to minimize the length and effects of any suspension under 2(c), and (ii) shares designated under the Plan for sale during the period when sales under the Plan are suspended will be sold as soon as possible thereafter. If sales are suspended on two days on which trading occurs on the Nasdaq National Market in any Selling Period, an Extension will result, thereby extending the Selling Period then in effect as provided in Section 1 above. 3. TERMINATION The Plan shall end on the earliest of: a. the completion of all sales contemplated in Section 1 of the Plan; b. Data Transit's or Merrill Lynch's reasonable determination that: (i) the Plan does not comply with Rule 10b5-1 or other applicable securities laws; (ii) Data Transit has not, or Merrill Lynch has not, complied with the Plan, Rule 10b5-1 or other applicable securities laws; (iii) Data Transit has made misstatements in Data Transit's Client Representations to Merrill Lynch; (iv) the filing of a bankruptcy petition by the Issuer; or (v) receipt by Merrill Lynch of written notice of termination from Data Transit pursuant to Section 12 below. 4. At the sole discretion of Merrill Lynch, (i) shares allocated under the Plan for sale may be sold in bulk or in smaller increments, depending upon market demand and conditions and (ii) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 1 above, it may elect or not elect during any Selling Period to deliver an Extension Notice. 3 5. In the event of a stock split or reverse stock split, the share quantity and dollar amount at which shares are sold will be automatically adjusted proportionately. 6. In the event of a reincorporation or other corporate reorganization resulting in an automatic share-for-share exchange of new shares for the type of shares subject to the Plan, then the new shares will automatically replace the type of shares originally specified in the Plan. 7. Compliance with Rule 144 and Rule 145. The following provisions apply only to the extent applicable. a. Data Transit understands and agrees that if Data Transit is an affiliate or control person for purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ""Securities Act"),"), or if the securities subject to the Plan are restricted securities subject to limitations under Rule 144 or eligible for resale under Rule 145, then all sales of securities under the Plan will be in accordance with the applicable provisions of Rule 144. Data Transit requests and authorizes Merrill Lynch to complete and file on Data Transit's behalf the Forms 144 (pre-signed on its behalf) necessary to effect the Plan, if any. b. If appropriate, Data Transit understands and agrees that upon Data Transit's prompt signature and delivery to Merrill Lynch of Form 144, Merrill Lynch will make one Form 144 filing at the beginning of each three-month period, commencing with the date of the first sale made in connection with the Plan, and that each Form 144 shall state the following: "This proposed sale is made pursuant to a plan intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1(c), previously adopted on [insert plan adoption date], when Data Transit was not aware of material nonpublic information". c. Merrill Lynch will conduct sales pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 145 if appropriate, including applying Rule 144 volume limitations as if the sales under the Plan were the only sales subject to the volume limitations. d. Data Transit agrees not to take any action or to cause any other person or entity to take any action that would require Data Transit to aggregate sales of securities pursuant to Rule 144; and not to take any action that would cause the sales of securities under the Plan not to comply with Rule 144 or Rule 145. 8. Indemnification. a. Data Transit agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Merrill Lynch from and against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities arising out of inquires and/or proceedings resulting from assertions that: 4 (i) the Plan or sales made under the Plan do not comply with Rule 10b5-1 or with state securities laws or regulations prohibiting trading while in possession of material nonpublic information and (ii) Merrill Lynch has not executed any sales pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. b.
