This MERGER AGREEMENT dated as of July 16, 2001 (the "Agreement") is made and entered into by and among Corel Corporation, a corporation continued under the laws of Canada ("Corel"), Calgary I Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corel ("Sub"), and Micrografx, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Micrografx"). WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of Corel, Sub and Micrografx have each previously determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of their respective shareholders to consummate, and have approved, the merger transaction provided for herein in which Micrografx would merge with Sub (the "Merger"); WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of Corel and Micrografx have determined that the Merger is in furtherance of and consistent with their respective long-term business strategies and is advisable, fair to and in the best interests of their respective shareholders, and this Agreement and the Merger have been approved and adopted by the sole shareholder of Sub; WHEREAS, unless the Cash Alternative is elected by Corel, the parties intend that for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Merger shall qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and that this Agreement shall constitute a "plan of reorganization" for the purposes of Section 368 of the Code; WHEREAS certain holders of shares of Micrografx Common Stock and shares of Micrografx Preferred Stock have entered into Voting and Proxy Agreements in the form of Exhibit A hereto ("Voting and Proxy Agreement"); and WHEREAS, Corel, Sub and Micrografx desire to make certain representations, warranties and agreements in connection with the Merger and also to prescribe various conditions to the Merger; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows: ARTICLE I The Merger 1.01 The Merger.

At the Effective Time, subject to Section 2.01(c)(ii), the separate existence of Micrografx shall cease and Sub shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "Surviving Corporation"). Sub and Micrografx are sometimes referred to herein as the "Constituent Corporations". As a result of the Merger, the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Constituent Corporations shall be converted or cancelled in the manner provided in Article II. 1.02 Closing. Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated and the transactions herein contemplated shall have been abandoned pursuant to Section 8.01, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver (where applicable) of the conditions set forth in Article VII, the closing of the Merger (the "Closing") will take place at the offices of McCarthy Tetrault located at The Chambers, 40 Elgin Street, Suite 1400, Ottawa, Ontario, K1P 5K6, at 10:00 a.m., local time, on the second business day following satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 7.0l(a) unless another date, time or place is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto (the "Closing Date"). At the Closing there shall be delivered to Corel, Sub and Micrografx the certificates and other documents and instruments required to be delivered under Article VII. 1 1.03 Effective Time. At the Closing, a certificate of merger (the "Certificate of Merger") shall be duly prepared and executed by the Surviving Corporation and thereafter delivered to the Secretary of State of Delaware (the "Secretary of State") for filing, as provided in Section 251 of the DL, and articles of merger ("Articles of Merger") shall be duly prepared and executed by the Surviving Corporation and thereafter delivered to the Secretary of State of Texas ("Texas Secretary of State") for filing, as provided in Article 5.04 of the TL, as soon as practicable on the Closing Date. The Merger shall become effective at the time of the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State and the issuance of the Certificate of Merger by the Texas Secretary of State (the date and time of such filing and issuance being referred to herein as the "Effective Time"). 1.04 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. At the Effective Time, (i) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended to read in its entirety (except for the corporate name) as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation of Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time until thereafter amended as provided by law and such Certificate of Incorporation, and (ii) the Bylaws of Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and such Bylaws. 1.05 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation. (a) The directors of Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the directors of the Surviving Corporation until their successors shall have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Surviving Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. (b) The officers of Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the officers of the Surviving Corporation until their successors shall have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Surviving Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. 1.06 Effects of the Merger. Subject to the foregoing, the effects of the Merger shall be as provided in the applicable provisions of the DL and TL including, without limitation, Section 259 and Article 5.06, respectively, thereof. 1.07 Further Assurances. Each party hereto will, either before or after the Effective Time, execute such further documents, instruments, deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and take such further actions as may reasonably be requested by one or more of the others to consummate the Merger, to vest the Surviving Corporation with full title to all assets, properties, privileges, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of either of the Constituent Corporations or to effect the other purposes of this Agreement. ARTICLE II Conversion of Shares 2.01 Conversion of Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of the capital stock of either Micrografx or Sub, each of the following shall occur: (a) Capital Stock of Sub. Each issued and outstanding share of the common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Sub ("Sub Common Stock") shall be converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation ("Surviving Corporation Common Stock"). Each certificate representing outstanding shares of Sub Common Stock shall at the Effective Time represent an equal number of outstanding shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock. 2 (b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Stock Owned by Corel and Subsidiaries. All shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Micrografx ("Micrografx Common Stock") and preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, of Micrografx ("Micrografx Preferred Stock"), that are owned by Micrografx as treasury stock or owned by Corel, Sub or any other Subsidiary (as defined in Section 9.18) of Corel (other than shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock) shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist and no stock of Corel or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor. (c) Exchange Ratio for Micrografx Common Stock. (i) Subject to Section 2.01(c)(ii), each issued and outstanding share of Micrografx Common Stock (other than shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(b) and other than Micrografx Common Stock held by Persons who exercise their dissent rights in accordance with Articles 5.11 and 5.12 of TL) shall be converted into the right to receive (i) a fraction of a validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable common share of Corel ("Corel Common Stock") resulting from the multiplication of one share of Corel Common Stock by the Conversion Ratio (as defined below) and (ii) one Corel participation right ("Corel PR") in the form set forth in Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of the Participation Rights Agreement, substantially in the form of which is annexed as Exhibit B hereto. "Conversion Ratio" shall be determined immediately prior to the Effective Time and shall be the Micrografx Times Revenue Share Price (as defined below) divided by the volume weighted average trading price of Corel Common Stock on Nasdaq (or if the Corel Common Stock is not then traded on Nasdaq any other principal exchange on which the shares of Corel Common Stock are then listed) during the ten consecutive trading day period that ends on the second business day prior to the Effective Time (the "Corel Closing Share Price"). (A) the "Micrografx Times Revenue Share Price" means the price per share resulting upon dividing (x) 50% of the Micrografx Annual Revenues by (y) the sum of the number of shares of issued and outstanding Micrografx Common Stock and the number of shares of Micrografx Common Stock into which the issued and outstanding Micrografx Series A Stock is convertible immediately prior to the Effective Time; and (B) "Micrografx Annual Revenues" means 103% of the annual audited revenues of Micrografx for the 12 months ended June 30, 2001, plus (x) 50% of the reduction without payment or other consideration to the holder thereof in the principal amount of the indebtedness represented by the Subordinated Convertible Debentures dated April 16, 1999 issued by the Corporation to Intergraph Corporation (the "Intergraph Debentures"), (y) 50% of any reductions after the date hereof in the principal amount of trade payable indebtedness owed by Micrografx that is outstanding on the date of this Agreement, which reductions are effected through the negotiation of discounts, without other consideration to the creditor, to the principal balance of such trade payables that are otherwise outstanding, and (z) the proceeds received by Micrografx after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time from the exercise of any options or warrants to purchase shares of its capital stock; provided, that in no event shall the amount of Micrografx Annual Revenues exceed $34 million. (ii) If the Corel Closing Share Price is less than $2.90 unless due to a stock dividend, split or other share reclassification event, Corel shall have the right (the "Cash Alternative"), in lieu of the exchange provided for in Sections 2.01(c)(i) and 2.01(d), to require that each issued and outstanding share of Micrografx Common Stock and each issued and outstanding share of Micrografx Series A Stock (to the same extent as if the Micrografx Series A Stock had first been converted into shares of Micrografx Common Stock), as described in Section 2.01(c)(i) shall be converted into the right to receive solely cash equal to 200% of the Micrografx Times Revenue Share Price provided, that for the purposes of this Section 2.01(c)(ii), the Micrografx Times Revenue Share Price shall be calculated by substituting in the definition of "Micrografx Annual Revenue" "100%" in place of "103%" where the same appears. In the event Corel elects to exercise such right, and notwithstanding any 3 other provision hereof, the parties agree that Sub shall merge with and into Micrografx and the Surviving Corporation shall be Micrografx (and the provisions of Sections 1.01, 1.03 and 1.04 shall be read accordingly), and the parties further agree that the Merger will be treated as a taxable stock transfer for United States tax purposes. (iii) All shares of Micrografx Common Stock converted in accordance with paragraph (i) or (ii) of this Section 2.01(c) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the shares of Corel Common Stock and the Corel PRs, or cash, to be issued in consideration therefor (determined in accordance with Section 2.02(c)(i)), upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with Section 2.02, without interest. (d) Conversion of Micrografx Preferred Stock. Each issued and outstanding share of Micrografx's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Micrografx Series A Stock") shall be converted into the right to receive such number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Corel Common Stock and Corel PRs to the same extent as if the Micrografx Series A Stock had first been converted into Micrografx Common Stock. (e) Stock Option Plans. (i) Not less than ten days prior to the Effective Time, each participant holding stock options under the Micrografx 1995 Incentive and Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan and the Micrografx 1995 Director Stock Option Plan (together, the "Micrografx ESOP") shall be given written notice by Micrografx that all outstanding stock options under the Micrografx ESOP must be exercised, and may, at the discretion of the holder, be exercised on a cashless basis such that the number of shares of Micrografx Common Stock that may be issued shall be that number of shares of Micrografx Common Stock that is net of that number of shares which is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the product of the total number of shares issuable and the respective exercise prices by (B) the greater of $1.65 and the closing price of Micrografx Common Stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board on the date of exercise, to the extent vested (including those which would vest upon the Effective Time), no later than two business days prior to the Effective Time. To the extent that such options are not exercised, all outstanding but unexercised options under the Micrografx ESOP will terminate at the Effective Time, and become null and void. (ii) Each participant holding unvested options, including unvested options which would not vest upon the Effective Time, with an exercise price less than $1.65 per share shall be paid by Corel, at the Effective Time, cash equal to the difference between $1.65 per share and such exercise price (the "Option Cash"). (f) Stock Purchase Plans. Micrografx shall provide written notice not later than 30 days prior to the second business day prior to the Effective Time to all participants in the Micrografx Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Micrografx ESPP") that all outstanding options under the Micrografx ESPP to the extent exercisable (including those which would be exercisable upon the Effective Time), may be exercised for a period of not less than thirty (30) days from the date of such notice. At the end of such 30-day period, all outstanding options under the Micrografx ESPP will terminate. Furthermore, no further Offering Periods shall be implemented absent the prior approval of Corel until after this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 8.01. (g) Warrants. At the Effective Time, Corel shall assume all of Micrografx's obligations under all outstanding warrants. Holders of outstanding warrants shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise of such warrants, the same number of shares of Corel Common Stock and Corel PRs as such holders would have received in shares of Micrografx Common Stock had they exercised the warrants prior to the Effective Time. The exercise prices for such warrants shall be adjusted consistent with the appropriate conversion ratios. 4 (h) Convertible Promissory Notes. Immediately prior to the Effective Date, all outstanding convertible promissory notes issued by Micrografx shall be converted into Micrografx Common Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of such convertible promissory notes. (i) Consideration for Corel Common Stock and Corel PRs. Effective as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall in consideration for Corel's issuance of Corel Common Stock and Corel PRs in accordance with Section 2.01(d), issue such shares of the Surviving Corporation to Corel as Corel and Sub may agree. (j) Shares of Dissenting Shareholders. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary but only to the extent required by the TL, shares of Micrografx Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a person (a "Dissenting Shareholder") who shall not have voted to approve and adopt this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who shall have complied with all of the provisions of the TL to dissent from the Merger and to demand appraisal for such shares in accordance with Article 5.12 of the TL (the "Dissenting Shares") shall not be converted as described in Section 2.01(c), unless such holder fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses his right to appraisal, but shall instead become the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due such Dissenting Shareholder pursuant to the TL. If, after the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shareholder fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses his right to appraisal, such Dissenting Shareholder's shares of Micrografx Common Stock shall no longer be considered Dissenting Shares for purposes of this Agreement and shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become exchangeable for, at the Effective Time, Shares of Corel Common Stock and Corel PRs. Micrografx shall give Corel prompt notice of any demands received by Micrografx for appraisal of shares of Micrografx Common Stock, and Corel shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Micrografx shall not, except with prior written consent of Corel, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands. 2.02 Exchange of Certificates. (a) Exchange Agent. As of the Effective Time, Corel shall enter into an agreement (the terms of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to Micrografx) with such bank or trust company as may be designated by Corel (the "Exchange Agent"), which shall provide that Corel shall deposit with the Exchange Agent as of the Effective Time, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Micrografx Common Stock and Micrografx Preferred Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Article II, through the Exchange Agent, either (A) if the Cash Alternative is elected by Corel, the full cash amount provided in Section 2.01(c)(ii), or (B) if the Cash Alternative is not elected, (i) certificates representing the number of duly authorized whole shares of Corel Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger, and (ii) certificates representing the number of duly authorized Corel PRs issuable in connection with the Merger, to be held for the benefit of and distributed to such holders in accordance with this Section (such shares of Corel Common Stock and such Corel PRs, being referred to herein as the "Exchange Fund"). (b) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and in any event within ten business days after the Effective Time, Corel shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of the Certificate(s) (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as the Surviving Corporation may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for cash or for certificates representing whole shares of Corel Common Stock or whole Corel PRs. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal duly executed and completed in accordance with its terms, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, if the Cash Alternative is elected then cash, and otherwise a certificate representing that number of whole shares of Corel Common Stock and such number of Corel PRs, which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. In no event shall the holder of 5 any Certificate be entitled to receive any fractional shares or interest on any funds to be received in the Merger. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Micrografx Common Stock or Micrografx Preferred Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of Micrografx, if the Cash Alternative is elected then cash, and otherwise a certificate representing that number of whole shares of Corel Common and a certificate representing that number of Corel PRs may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate representing such Micrografx Common Stock or Micrografx Preferred Stock is presented to the Exchange Agent accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and the person requesting such issuance shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance or delivery of shares of Corel Common Stock or Corel PRs to a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Corel that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.02(b), except as limited by paragraph (c) below, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent, if the Cash Alternative is elected then cash, and otherwise ownership of the number of shares of Corel Common Stock (and any rights derivative thereof) and Corel PRs into which the number of shares of Micrografx Common Stock or Micrografx Preferred Stock shown thereon have been converted as contemplated by this Article II. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Certificates representing Micrografx Common Stock or Micrografx Preferred Stock surrendered for exchange by any person constituting an "affiliate" of Micrografx for purposes of Section 6.04 shall not be exchanged until Corel has received an Affiliate Agreement (as defined in Section 6.04) executed by such person as provided in Section 6.04. (c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to Corel Common Stock with a record date on or after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of Micrografx Common Stock or Micrografx Preferred Stock represented thereby until the holder of record of such Certificate shall surrender such Certificate in accordance with this Section. Subject to the effect of applicable laws, following surrender of any such Certificate, there shall be paid to the record holder of the certificates representing whole shares of Corel Common Stock or Corel PRs issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions, if any, with a record date on or after the Effective Time which theretofore became payable, but which were not paid by reason of the immediately preceding sentence, with respect to such whole shares of Corel Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date on or after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date subsequent to surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Corel Common Stock or Corel PRs.

No certificate or scrip representing fractional shares of Corel Common Stock will be issued in the Merger upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a shareholder of Corel. In lieu of any such fractional shares, each holder of Certificates who would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction equal to one-half or more of a share of Corel Common Stock shall receive a full share of Corel Common Stock. 6 (f) Termination of Exchange Fund.

Neither Corel nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of shares of Micrografx Common Stock or Micrografx Preferred Stock for cash or shares of Corel Common Stock or Corel PRs (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Corel, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Micrografx Common Stock or Micrografx Preferred Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Corel. (h) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate(s) to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Corel, the posting by such person of a bond in such sum as Corel may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate(s), the Exchange Agent will pay the cash or issue the shares of Corel Common Stock and the Corel PRs pursuant to Section 2.02(b) deliverable in respect of the shares of Micrografx Common Stock or Micrografx Preferred Stock represented by such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates.

This Agreement may be terminated, and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned, at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether prior to or after Micrografx Shareholders' Approval: (a) By mutual written agreement of the parties hereto duly authorized by action taken by or on behalf of their respective Boards of Directors; (b) By either Principal Party upon notification to the non-terminating Principal Party by the terminating Principal Party: (i) at any time after December 31, 2001, if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or prior to such date and such failure to consummate the Merger is not caused by a breach of this Agreement by the terminating Principal Party; (ii) if the Micrografx Shareholders' Approval shall not be obtained by reason of the failure to obtain the requisite vote upon a vote held at a meeting of such shareholders (including at not more than two adjournments or postponements thereof, called therefor); (iii) if there has been a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the non-terminating Principal Party set forth in this Agreement, which breach is not curable or, if curable, has not been cured within 30 days following receipt by the non-terminating Principal Party of written notice of such breach from the terminating Principal Party; or (iv) if any Restraint having the effects set forth in Section 7.01(e) shall be in effect and shall have become final and nonappealable; or (c) (i) By Micrografx prior to Micrografx Shareholders' Approval, if the Board of Directors of Micrografx determines in good faith, based upon the advice of outside counsel that termination of the Agreement is required for the Board of Directors to comply with its fiduciary duties to shareholders imposed by applicable law by reason of an unsolicited bona fide Alternative Proposal which the Board of Directors of Micrografx has determined is a Superior Proposal (as hereinafter defined), provided that Micrografx shall have complied with the provisions of Section 5.02 and shall notify Corel in writing promptly of its intention to terminate this Agreement or enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Alternative Proposal, but in no event shall such notice be given less than three business days prior to the public announcement of Micrografx's termination of this Agreement, and Micrografx must provide Corel with a reasonable opportunity to make an equivalent proposal to enable Micrografx to proceed with the Merger; or (ii) by Corel if the Board of Directors of Micrografx or any committee shall have withdrawn or modified in a manner adverse to Corel its approval or recommendation or failed to reconfirm its recommendation of this Agreement or the Merger (it being understood that an announcement by Micrografx that states that an Alternative Proposal is under consideration by such Board of Directors shall be deemed such a withdrawal or modification, unless the Board of Directors publicly reaffirms its original recommendation within ten business days after such announcement); and provided further that Micrografx's ability to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph (c) is conditioned upon the prior payment by Micrografx of any amounts owed by it pursuant to Section 8.02 (b). For purposes of this Agreement, a "Superior Proposal" is an Alternative Proposal (provided that for the purposes of this Section only, the percentages in the definition of Alternative Proposal shall be deemed to be 50%) received by Micrografx with respect to which the Board of Directors of Micrografx has determined, based upon the advice of Micrografx's financial advisor and taking into account all relevant factors, that the consideration to be received by the shareholders of Micrografx is superior from a financial point of view to the consideration to be received by them in the Merger and the Board of Directors has concluded in good faith and in its reasonable judgment, that such Alternative Proposal is superior and is reasonably likely to be consummated and the Board of Directors has reasonably concluded in good faith 34 that the person or group making such Alternative Proposal will have adequate sources of financing to consummate such Alternative Proposal and that such Acquisition Proposal is more favorable and provides greater value to Micrografx's shareholders than the Merger. 8.02 Effect of Termination. (a) If this Agreement is validly terminated by either Micrografx or Corel pursuant to Section 8.01, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party or parties specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement will forthwith become null and void and there will be no liability or obligation under this Agreement on the part of either Micrografx or Corel (or any of their respective Representatives or affiliates), except (i) that the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement and Sections 6.11 and 6.12 and this Section 8.02 will continue to apply following any such termination, (ii) that nothing contained herein shall relieve any party hereto from liability for willful breach of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, and (iii) as provided in paragraph (b) below. (b) In the event that any person or group shall have made an Alternative Proposal with respect to Micrografx and thereafter this Agreement is terminated by Micrografx pursuant to Section 8.01(c)(i), then Micrografx shall pay the Specified Amount (as defined below) to Corel. In the event that Corel shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to 8.01(c)(ii), then Micrografx shall pay the Specified Amount and Corel's Expenses (as defined below) to Corel. In the event that any person or group shall have made an Alternative Proposal with respect to Micrografx and the Micrografx Shareholders' Approval shall not be obtained, and thereafter either Principal Party shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01 (b)(ii) and a definitive agreement with respect to such Alternative Proposal or any other Alternative Proposal is entered into by Micrografx within twelve months of the date of such termination with any person that made the original Alternative Proposal or within nine months of the date of such termination with any other person, then Micrografx shall pay to Corel the Specified Amount and all accounting, legal, investment and other out- of-pocket expenses incurred by Corel with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement ("Corel's Expenses"). In the event that any person or group shall have made an Alternative Proposal with respect to Micrografx, and thereafter Corel shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to 8.01(b)(iii) or 8.01(b)(iv) (and provided Micrografx has directly or indirectly participated in the issue of the Restraint in respect of which the right of termination has been exercised pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(iv)) and a definitive agreement with respect to such Alternative Proposal or any other Alternative Proposal is entered into by Micrografx within twelve months of the date of such termination with any person that made the original Alternative Proposal or within nine months of the date of such termination with any other person, then Micrografx shall pay the Specified Amount and Corel's Expenses to Corel. If any person or group shall have made an Alternative Proposal with respect to Micrografx and thereafter this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Sections 8.01(b)(i) and a definitive agreement with respect to such Alternative Proposal or any other Alternative Proposal is executed by Micrografx within twelve months after such termination with any person that made the original Alternative Proposal or within nine months of the date of such termination with any other person, then Micrografx shall pay to Corel the Specified Amount and Corel's Expenses. The Specified Amount shall be paid by wire transfer of same day funds, either on the date contemplated in Section 8.01 (c) if applicable, or otherwise within two business days after such amount becomes due. "Specified Amount" means a termination fee equal to 3.5% of Micrografx Annual Revenues. If Micrografx Shareholders' Approval is not received and no Specified Amount is payable, Micrografx will pay to Corel, Corel's Expenses. In the event that Corel exercises its option to acquire and acquires, 80% of the stock of the Image2Web, Inc. as described in Section 6.17, Micrografx shall not be required to pay the Specified Amount in any of the circumstances described in this Section 8.02(b). (c) Micrografx acknowledges that the agreements contained in Section 8.02(b) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements Corel would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if Micrografx fails promptly to pay the amount due pursuant to such 35 paragraph, and in order to obtain such payment, Corel commences a suit which results in a judgment against Micrografx for such amount, Micrografx shall pay to Corel, all costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by Corel or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the fee at a rate equal to the prime rate publicly announced from time to time by Citibank, N.A. and in effect on the date such payment was required to be made. 8.03 Amendment.

No such amendment, supplement or modification shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of each party hereto. 8.04 Waiver.

In the case of any transfer by operation of law, this Agreement shall be binding upon the transferee. (b) Each Principal will, with respect to those shares of Micrografx Stock or other securities of Micrografx that such Principal either owns for voting at the Micrografx Shareholders Meeting to be held for the purpose of voting on the adoption of the Merger Agreement or for granting any written consent in connection with the solicitation of written consents in lieu of such a meeting or with respect to which such Principal otherwise controls the vote, vote or cause to be voted such shares (or execute written consents with respect to such shares) (i) to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) against any Alternative Proposal and (iii) in favor of any other matter necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Neither my entering into this agreement, nor anything contained herein, shall be deemed an admission on my part that I am such an "affiliate". Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 12, 2001 (the "Merger Agreement"), among Corel Corporation, a Canadian corporation ("Corel"), Calgary I Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation wholly owned by Corel ("Sub"), and Micrografx; Sub will be merged with and into Micrografx (the "Merger"), and as a result of the Merger, I will be entitled to receive shares of Corel's Common Stock and Contingent Value Rights exercisable for shares of Corel's Common Stock (together, the "Corel Securities"), in exchange for the shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, and shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, of Micrografx owned by me at the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of the Merger. I represent, warrant and covenant to Corel that in such event: A. I shall not make any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Corel Securities in violation of the Act or the Rules and Regulations. B. I have carefully read this letter and the Merger Agreement and discussed its requirements and other applicable limitations upon my ability to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of Corel Securities, to the extent I felt necessary, with my counsel or counsel for Micrografx. C. I have been advised that the issuance of Corel Securities to me pursuant to the Merger has been registered with the Commission under the Act on a Registration Statement on Form S-4. However, I have also been advised that, since at the time the Merger was submitted for a vote of the stockholders of Micrografx I may have been deemed to have been an affiliate of Micrografx and a distribution by me of Corel Securities has not been registered under the Act, the Corel Securities must be held by me indefinitely unless (i) a distribution of Corel Securities by me has been registered under the Act, (ii) a sale of Corel Securities by me is made in conformity with the volume and other limitations of Rule 145 promulgated by the Commission under the Act,(iii) in the opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to Corel, some other exemption from registration is available with respect to a proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of the Corel Securities by me, or (iv) pursuant to a "no-action" or interpretive letter from the Staff of the Commission, registration is not required with respect to a proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of Corel Securities. D. I understand that Corel is under no obligation to register the sale, transfer or other disposition of Corel Securities by me or on my behalf or to take any other action necessary in order to make compliance with an exemption from registration available. E. I also understand that stop transfer instructions will be given to Corel's transfer agents with respect to the Corel Securities and that there will be placed on the certificates for the Corel Securities, or any substitutions therefor, a legend stating in substance: "The shares represented by this certificate were issued in a transaction to which Rule 145 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, applies. The shares represented by this C-1 certificate may only be transferred in accordance with the terms of an agreement dated , , between the registered holder hereof and Corel (the "Corporation"), a copy of which agreement is on file at the principal offices of the Corporation." F. I also understand that unless the transfer by me of my Corel Securities has been registered under the Act or is a sale made in conformity with the provisions of this Agreement, Corel reserves the right to put the following legend on the certificates issued to my transferee: "The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and were acquired from a person who received such shares in a transaction to which Rule 145 promulgated under such Act applies. The shares have been acquired by the holder not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof within the meaning of such Act and may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred except in accordance with an exemption from the registration requirements of such Act." It is understood and agreed that the legends set forth in paragraphs E and F above shall be removed by delivery of substitute certificates without such legend if such legend is not required for purposes of the Act or this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that such legends and the stop orders referred to above will be removed if (i) one year shall have elapsed from the date that the undersigned acquired Corel Securities received in the Merger and the provisions of Rule 145(d)(2) are then available to the undersigned, (ii) two years shall have elapsed from the date the undersigned acquired the Corel Securities received in the Merger and the provisions of Rule 145(d)(3) are then applicable to the undersigned, (iii) Corel shall have received either an opinion of counsel, which opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to Corel, or a "no action" or "interpretive" letter obtained from the Staff of the Commission, to the effect that the Corel Securities subject thereto may be transferred free of the restrictions imposed by Rule 144 or 145 under the Act or (iv) in the event of a sale of Corel Securities received by the undersigned in the Merger which has been registered under the Act. By its acceptance hereof, Corel agrees, for up to two years to the extent necessary to permit the undersigned to sell the Corel Securities pursuant to Rule 145 and, to the extent applicable, Rule 144 under the Act, that it will (i) file on a timely basis all reports required to be filed by it pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), and (ii) furnish to the undersigned, upon request, a written statement as to whether Corel has complied with such reporting requirements during the twelve (12) months preceding any proposed sale of Corel Securities by the undersigned under Rule 145 and Rule 144.
