("Webb") completed the exchange of its outstanding series B convertible preferred stock (12,500 shares in the aggregate) for a similar number of shares of Webb's series B-2 convertible preferred stock with Marshall Capital Management, Inc. ("Marshall") and Castle Creek Technology Partners LLC ("Castle Creek"). The series B-2 preferred stock is convertible into shares of Webb's common stock at a fixed conversion price of $10.20408, subject to adjustment in the event that the registration statement being filed by Webb on September 28, 2000 for the shares issuable upon conversion of the series B-2 preferred stock is not declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission by December 31, 2000. The series B preferred stock that was exchanged for the series B-2 preferred stock was convertible into shares of Webb's common stock at a conversion price, currently $20.00 but subject to reset on November 12, 2000. The November reset would have been based on the then current market price for Webb's common stock, but not less than $8.00. The fixed conversion price for the series B-2 preferred stock is slightly above what the conversion price for the series B preferred stock would have been if the reset date for the series B preferred stock was September 11, 2000, the date upon which each of the parties agreed in principle to the exchange. The series B preferred stock was exchanged for the series B-2 preferred stock without registration pursuant to Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), in reliance of Section 3(a)(9) of the Act. No commissions were paid in connection with the exchange. Based on the price of Webb's common stock on the date that the series B-2 stock was issued, Webb will not incur any significant expenses in connection with the transaction. The common stock issuable upon conversion of the series B-2 preferred stock is subject to registration rights. The foregoing is a summary only and it is not intended to be a complete description of the transaction, and it is qualified in its entirety by the Exhibits filed herewith. Item 7.

The name of the Corporation is WEBB INTERACTIVE SERVICES, INC. 2. The Corporation's Board of Directors duly adopted these Articles of Amendment on September 10, 2000. 3.

SERIES B-2 CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK -------------------------------------- 1. DESIGNATION AND AMOUNT. ---------------------- The designation of this series, which consists of twelve thousand five hundred (12,500) shares of Preferred Stock, is the "Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock" (the "Series B-2 Preferred Stock") and the face amount of each -------------------------- share of Series B-2 Preferred Stock (each, a "Preferred Share" and collectively, --------------- the "Preferred Shares") shall be One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) per Preferred ---------------- Share (the "Stated Value"). The date on which the Preferred Shares are issued ------------ pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, dated as of September 14, 2000, between the Corporation and the Purchasers named therein (the "Exchange Agreement") is ------------------ referred to herein as the "Issue Date".

PRIORITY. -------- (a) Payment upon Dissolution. ------------------------ (i) Upon the occurrence of (x) any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings in connection therewith, commenced by the Corporation or by its creditors, as such, or relating to its assets or (y) the dissolution or other winding up of the Corporation whether total or partial, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, or (z) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of the material assets or material liabilities of the Corporation (each, a "Liquidation ----------- Event"), no distribution shall be made to the holders of any shares of Junior - ----- Securities (as defined below) unless, following the payment of preferential amounts on all Senior Securities (as defined below), each Holder shall have received the Liquidation Preference (as defined below) with respect to each Preferred Share then held by such Holder. In the event that upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event, and following the payment of preferential amounts on all Senior Securities (as defined below), the assets available for distribution to the Holders and the holders of Pari Passu Securities are insufficient to pay the Liquidation Preference with respect to all of the outstanding Preferred Shares and the preferential amounts payable to such holders, the entire assets of the Corporation shall be distributed ratably among the Preferred Shares and the shares of Pari Passu Securities in proportion to the ratio that the preferential amount payable on each such share (which shall be the Liquidation Preference in the case of a Preferred Share) bears to the aggregate preferential amount payable on all such shares. (ii) The "Liquidation Preference" with respect to a Preferred Share ---------------------- shall mean an amount equal to the Stated Value of such Preferred Share. "Junior ------ Securities" shall mean the Common Stock and all other capital stock of the - ---------- Corporation that are not Pari Passu Securities or Senior Securities.

Each Holder shall have the right to convert, at ---------------- any time and from time to time after the Issue Date, all or any part of the Preferred Shares held by such Holder into such number of fully paid and non- assessable shares ("Conversion Shares") of the Common Stock as is determined in ----------------- accordance with the terms hereof (a "Conversion"). ----------- (b) Conversion Notice. In order to convert Preferred Shares, a Holder ----------------- shall send to the Corporation by facsimile transmission, at any time prior to 11:59 p.m., eastern time, on the date on which such Holder wishes to effect such Conversion (the "Conversion Date"), (i) a notice of conversion in substantially --------------- the form of Exhibit A hereto (a "Conversion Notice") stating the number of ----------------- Preferred Shares to be converted, the Conversion Price (as defined below) and a calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Conversion and (ii) a copy of the certificate or certificates representing the Preferred Shares being converted. The Holder shall thereafter send the original of the Conversion Notice and of such certificate or certificates to the Corporation. The Corporation shall issue a new certificate for Preferred Shares in the event that less than all of the Preferred Shares represented by a certificate delivered to the Corporation in connection with a Conversion are converted. Except as otherwise provided herein, upon delivery of a Conversion Notice by a Holder in accordance with the terms hereof, such Holder shall, as of the applicable Conversion Date, be deemed for all purposes to be record owner of the Common Stock to which such Conversion Notice relates. In the case of a dispute between the Corporation and a Holder as to the calculation of the Conversion Price or the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a Conversion (including without limitation the calculation of any adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 6 below), the Corporation shall in any event issue to such Holder the number of Conversion Shares that are not disputed within the time periods specified in paragraph 4(e) below and shall submit the disputed calculations to its independent accountant within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such Holder's Conversion Notice. (c) Number of Conversion Shares; Conversion Price. --------------------------------------------- (A) The number of Conversion Shares to be delivered by the Corporation pursuant to a Conversion shall be determined by dividing (i) the aggregate State Value of the Preferred Shares to be converted by (ii) the Conversion Price (as defined below) in effect on the applicable Conversion Date. (B) "Conversion Price" shall be, subject in each case described ---------------- below to adjustment for the events specified in Section 6 below, $10.20408 (the "Initial Conversion Price"), provided that if (A) either of the Exchange Date (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) or the Filing Date (as defined below) does not occur on or prior to September 29, 2000, or (B) the 8-K Date does not occur on or prior to the earlier to occur of (x) September 29,2000 and (y) 24 hours after the date on which the letter agreements, each dated September 14, 2000, between the Company and each Holder (together, the "Letter Agreements") are executed and delivered by the parties thereto, the Initial Conversion Price shall thereafter be $9.183672; provided, further, that in the -22- event that the Effective Date does not occur on or prior to December 31, 2000, the Initial Conversion Price, whether or not previously adjusted, shall thereafter be reduced or further reduced by $1.020408.

(d) Certain Definitions. "8-K Date" means the date on which the Company ------------------- -------- files the Form 8-K required by paragraph 3 of the Letter Agreements.

(collectively, the "Applicable Reporting -------------------- Entity"). If the Closing Bid Price cannot be calculated for such security on any - ------ of the foregoing bases, the Closing Bid Price of such security shall be the fair market value as reasonably determined by an independent investment banking firm selected by all of the Holders of Preferred Shares, and reasonably acceptable to the Corporation, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by the Corporation. "Effective Date" means the day on which the Registration Statement -------------- for the Conversion Shares (as defined in the Registration Agreement) is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. "Filing Date" means the ----------- date on which the Company files the Registration Statement on Form S-3 as required by Section 2(a) of the Registration Agreement; "Market Price" means the ------------ average Closing Bid Price for the Common Stock occurring during the period of ten (10) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding (but not including) the date of determination (but in no event greater than the Closing Bid Price on the Trading Day immediately preceding such date of determination); provided that if the Market Price cannot be calculated as aforesaid, such Market Price shall be the fair market value as reasonably determined by an investment banking firm selected by the Corporation and reasonably acceptable to the Holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares then outstanding, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by the Corporation.

The Corporation shall effect delivery of Conversion Shares to a Holder by, as long as the transfer agent for the Corporation (the "Transfer Agent") -------------- participates in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities --- Transfer program ("FAST"), crediting the account of such Holder or its nominee ---- at DTC (as specified in the applicable Conversion Notice or otherwise in writing) with the number of Conversion Shares required to be delivered, no later than the close of business on such Delivery Date. In the event that Transfer Agent is not a participant in FAST, or if Conversion Shares are not otherwise eligible for delivery through FAST, or if a Holder so specifies in a Conversion Notice or otherwise in writing on or before the Delivery Date, the Corporation shall effect delivery of Conversion Shares by delivering to the Holder or its nominee physical certificates representing such shares, no later than the close of business on such Delivery Date. If any Conversion would create a fractional Conversion Share, such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of Conversion Shares shall be the rounded to the nearest whole number of shares.

Amounts payable hereunder shall be paid to the Holder in immediately available funds on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day of the calendar month immediately following the calendar month in which such amounts have accrued. (ii) In the event that a Holder has not received certificates (without any restrictive legend in the circumstances described in clause (A), (B) or (C) of paragraph 4(e) above) representing the Conversion Shares by the tenth (10/th/) Business Day following a Conversion Default as a result of any willful action or any failure to act on the part of the Corporation (whether under these Articles of Amendment, under any other Transaction Document (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) or otherwise, including without limitation a failure by the Corporation to have a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance pursuant to conversions of Preferred Shares), such Holder may, upon written notice (a "Withdrawal Notice") delivered ----------------- to the Corporation on such Business Day or on any Business Day thereafter (unless, prior to the delivery of such notice, such Conversion Shares are delivered to such Holder), withdraw its Conversion Notice with respect to such Conversion Shares and regain its rights as a Holder of the Preferred Shares that are the subject of such Conversion Default. In such event, the Conversion Price in effect when such Preferred Shares are thereafter converted shall be equal to the lower of (x) the lowest Conversion Price and (y) the lowest Market Price occurring on or after the date of such Conversion Notice reduced by one percent (1%) for each day occurring during the period immediately following such 10th Business Day until the day on which the such Holder delivers a Withdrawal Notice to the Corporation; provided, however, that the maximum percentage by which such Conversion Price may be reduced hereunder shall be fifty percent (50%). (For example, if such Conversion Default were to continue for five days following such 10th Business Day, such Conversion Price would be reduced by 5%; if for ten days, by 10%; and for fifty days or more, 50%, so that the number of Conversion Shares deliverable upon conversion of such Preferred Shares would be increased proportionately). Upon delivery by a Holder of a Withdrawal Notice, such Holder shall retain all of such Holder's rights and remedies with respect to the Corporation's failure to deliver such Conversion Shares (including without limitation the right to receive the cash payments specified in subparagraph 4(f)(i) above). (iii) In addition to any other remedies provided herein, each Holder shall have the right to pursue actual damages for the Corporation's failure to issue and deliver Conversion Shares on the applicable Delivery Date (including, without limitation, damages relating to any purchase of shares of Common Stock by such Holder to make delivery on a sale lawfully effected in anticipation of receiving Conversion Shares upon Conversion, such damages to be in an amount equal to (A) the aggregate amount paid by such Holder for the shares of Common Stock so purchased minus (B) the aggregate Conversion Price for ----- such Conversion Shares, and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all other remedies available to it at law or in equity (including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief). -25- (g) Conversion at Maturity. On the later of December 31, 2000, or ten ---------------------- (10) days after the Effective Date (the "Determination Date"), all Preferred Shares then held by the Holders (and with respect to which a Holder has not submitted a Notice of Conversion) shall be automatically converted into the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Stated Value of such Preferred Shares divided by the Conversion Price then in effect (a "Conversion at ------- ------------- Maturity"); provided, however, that if, on the Determination Date, (i) the - -------- number of shares of Common Stock authorized, unissued and unreserved for all other purposes, or held in the Corporation's treasury, is not sufficient to effect the issuance and delivery of the number of Conversion Shares into which all outstanding Preferred Shares are then convertible, (ii) the Common Stock is not actively traded on either the Nasdaq National or SmallCap Market, (iii) a Mandatory Redemption Event (as defined herein) has occurred and is continuing, (iv) the conversion of a Holder's Preferred Shares pursuant to the Conversion at Maturity would violate the provisions of Section 5 below if effected by such Holder; provided, however, that in such event the Conversion at Maturity would -------- ------- apply solely to those Preferred Shares the conversion of which would not violate Section 5 as of the Determination Date and provided, further, that the -------- ------- determination on the Determination Date of a Holder's beneficial ownership of Common Stock pursuant to paragraph 5(b) above shall exclude any shares of Common Stock acquired by such Holder otherwise than pursuant to (i) the conversion or exercise of securities outstanding on the date hereof or (ii) the conversion or exercise of securities where such conversion or exercise occurred prior to September 14, 2000, or (v) the Registration Statement for the Conversion Shares (as defined in the Registration Agreement) is not effective and available for the resale of all Conversion Shares issuable on the Determination Date upon the conversion or exercise of all Preferred Shares then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on such conversion), each Holder shall have the option, upon written notice to the Corporation, to regain its rights as a holder of Preferred Shares (which, in the circumstances described in clause (iv) above, would comprise the Preferred Shares not converted pursuant to the proviso of clause (iv)), including without limitation, the right to convert such Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms of paragraphs 4(a) through 4(f) hereof and, upon delivery of such notice, such Preferred Shares shall not be subject to a Conversion at Maturity hereunder until the thirtieth (30/th/) day following the later of (a) the date on which the event specified (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), or (v) is no longer continuing and (b) the date on which the Corporation delivers to each Holder written notice to such effect, and in such event, such thirtieth day shall be deemed to be the Determination Date for purposes of these Articles of Amendment. In the event that the Registration Statement for the Conversion Shares (as defined in the Registration Agreement) has not been effective and available to each Holder for the resale of the maximum number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of such Holder's Preferred Shares (without regard to any limitations on such conversion or exercise), for any period or periods on or after the Effective Date and before the Determination Date (collectively, a "Blackout Period"), the Determination Date (the "Original --------------- -------- Determination Date") shall be delayed for a period of days equal to the Blackout - ------------------ Period (the Trading Day immediately following last day of such period being referred to herein as the "Delayed Determination Date") and the Delayed -------------------------- Determination Date shall be deemed to be the Determination Date for the purposes of these Articles of Amendment. If a Conversion at Maturity occurs, the Corporation and each Holder shall follow the procedures for Conversion set forth in this Section 4, with the Determination Date deemed to be -26- the Conversion Date, except that the Holder shall not be required to send a Conversion Notice as contemplated by paragraph 4(b). 5. CONVERSION LIMITATIONS. ---------------------- In no event shall a Holder be permitted to convert any Preferred Shares in excess of the number of such shares, upon the Conversion of which: (a) the number of Conversion Shares to be issued pursuant to such Conversion, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to all prior Conversions of Preferred Shares by the Holders thereof, would exceed the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable by the Corporation without stockholder approval in compliance with the continued listing requirements of either the Nasdaq National or SmallCap Market (the "Cap --- Amount"), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that (i) the - ------ Corporation obtains the approval of the holders of a majority of the Corporation's Common Stock for the issuance of Common Stock in excess of the Cap Amount (it being understood that any Holder whose Cap Allocation Amount (as defined below) represents less than (A) the number of Conversion Shares into which the Preferred Shares then held by such Holder are convertible at the Conversion Price then in effect (without regard to any restrictions or limitations on such conversion) plus (B) the number of Conversion Shares into ---- which such Holder has previously converted Preferred Shares shall have the right to require the Corporation, upon written notice to such effect, to seek such approval by means of a special meeting of stockholders to be held as soon as practicable following the Corporation's receipt of such notice, but in any case within ninety (90) days following such receipt, and to recommend such approval to its stockholders at such special meeting) or (ii) the Holders of a majority of the number of Preferred Shares then outstanding obtain an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation that such approval is not required. Until such approval or opinion is obtained, no purchaser of Preferred Shares pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (each, a "Purchaser" and together the --------- "Purchasers") shall be issued, upon Conversion of the Preferred Shares, - ----------- Conversion Shares in an amount greater than the product of (A) the Cap Amount times (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Preferred Shares - ----- issued to such Purchaser pursuant to the Exchange Agreement and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of all of the Preferred Shares issued to the Purchasers pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (the "Cap Allocation Amount"). In --------------------- the event that any Purchaser shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Purchaser's Preferred Shares, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Purchaser's Cap Allocation Amount. In the event that any Holder converts all of such Holder's Preferred Shares into a number of Conversion Shares which, in the aggregate, is less than such Holder's Cap Allocation Amount, then the difference between such Holder's Cap Allocation Amount and the number of Conversion Shares actually issued to such Holder shall be allocated to the respective Cap Allocation Amounts of the remaining Holders of Preferred Shares on a pro rata basis in proportion to the number of Preferred Shares then held by each such Holder; or (b) (x) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder (other than shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Preferred Shares or which would -27- otherwise be deemed beneficially owned except for being subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this paragraph 5(b)) plus (y) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the ---- Conversion of such Preferred Shares, would be equal to or exceed (z) 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issued and outstanding upon such conversion. As used herein, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this paragraph applies (and without limiting any rights the Corporation may otherwise have), the Corporation may rely on the Holder's determination of whether Preferred Shares are convertible pursuant to the terms hereof, the Corporation having no obligation whatsoever to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination, and the submission of a Conversion Notice by the Holder shall be deemed to be the Holder's representation that the Preferred Shares specified therein are convertible pursuant to the terms hereof. This paragraph may be amended by all of the Holders of Preferred Shares then outstanding only with the consent of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to restrict the right of a Holder to convert Preferred Shares at such time as the Conversion thereof will not violate the provisions of this paragraph 5(b). 6. ADJUSTMENTS TO CONVERSION PRICE. ------------------------------- (a) Adjustment to Conversion Price Due to Stock Split, Stock Dividend, ----------------------------------------------------------------- Etc. If, prior to the Conversion of all of the Preferred Shares, (A) the number - --- of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock split, a stock dividend on the Common Stock, a reclassification of the Common Stock, or other similar event, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced, which reduction shall be effected on the date on which the Corporation announces such event; or (B) the Corporation issues Common Stock, whether upon the exercise of rights, warrants, securities convertible or exercisable into Common Stock or otherwise, at a price (the "Issue Price") that is less than the current Market ----------- Price thereof at the time of such issuance, the Conversion Price that would otherwise be in effect on a particular date following such issuance shall be proportionately reduced in order to account for the difference between the Issue Price and such Market Price; provided, however, that if the Issue Price is lower than the Conversion Price otherwise in effect on the date of such issuance, such Conversion Price will be reduced to the lower of the amount determined by this clause (B) and the amount determined by clause (D) below; (C) the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a reverse stock split, combination or reclassification of shares or other similar event, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately increased, which increase shall be effected on the date on which the Corporation announces such event; or (D) the Corporation issues Common Stock, whether upon the exercise of rights, warrants, securities convertible or exercisable into Common Stock or otherwise, at a price that is lower than the Conversion Price in effect on any Conversion Date following the date of such issuance, such Conversion Price shall be reduced to such lower price. In no event shall any adjustment pursuant to clause (B) or clause (D) above result in a Conversion Price that exceeds the Conversion Price that would otherwise apply in the absence of such adjustment. -28- (b) [intentionally omitted] ----------------------- (c) Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, prior to the Conversion -------------------------------------------- of all of the Preferred Shares, there shall be any merger, consolidation, business combination, tender offer, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, redemption or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes of stock or securities of the Corporation or another entity (an "Exchange Transaction"), then such Holder -------------------- shall (A) upon the consummation of such Exchange Transaction, have the right to receive, with respect to any shares of Common Stock then held by such Holder, or which such Holder is then entitled to receive pursuant to a Conversion Notice previously delivered by such Holder (and without regard to whether such shares contain a restrictive legend or are freely-tradable), the same amount and type of consideration (including without limitation, stock, securities and/or other assets) and on the same terms as a holder of shares of Common Stock would be entitled to receive in connection with the consummation of such Exchange Transaction (the "Exchange Consideration"), and (B) upon the Conversion of ---------------------- Preferred Shares occurring subsequent to the consummation of such Exchange Transaction (a "Subsequent Conversion"), have the right to receive the Exchange --------------------- Consideration which such Holder would have been entitled to receive in connection with such Exchange Transaction had such shares been converted immediately prior to such Exchange Transaction at the Conversion Price applicable on the Conversion Date relating to such Subsequent Conversion, and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of such Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for the adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a Conversion) shall thereafter be applicable as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities thereafter deliverable upon the Conversion of such Preferred Shares. The Corporation shall not effect any Exchange Transaction unless (i) it first gives to each Holder twenty (20) days prior written notice of such Exchange Transaction (an "Exchange Notice"), and makes a public announcement of such --------------- event at the same time that it gives such notice (it being understood that the filing by the Corporation of a Form 8-K for the purpose of disclosing the anticipated consummation of the Exchange Transaction shall constitute an Exchange Notice for purposes of this provision) and (ii) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Corporation) assumes by written instrument the obligations of the Corporation hereunder, including the terms of this subparagraph 6(c), and under the Exchange Agreement and the Registration Agreement. (d) Distribution of Assets. If the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries ---------------------- shall declare or make any distribution of cash, evidences of indebtedness or other securities or assets (other than cash dividends or distributions payable out of earned surplus or net profits for the current or the immediately preceding year), or any rights to acquire any of the foregoing, to holders of Common Stock (or to a holder, other than the Corporation, of the common stock of any such subsidiary) as a partial liquidating dividend, by way of return of capital or otherwise, including any dividend or distribution in shares of capital stock of a subsidiary of the Corporation (collectively, a "Distribution"), then each Holder shall be entitled to receive, at the same time ------------ as such assets are received by a holder of such stock, an amount and type of such Distribution as though such Holder -29- were a holder on the record date therefor of a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Liquidation Preference of the Preferred Shares held by such Holder on such record date by the lower of the Market Price and the Conversion Price in effect on such record date (such number of shares to be determined without regard to any limitation on conversion of the Preferred Shares that may exist pursuant to these Articles of Amendment or otherwise). (e) Adjustment Due to Major Announcement. If the Corporation (i) makes a ------------------------------------ public announcement that it intends to enter into a Change of Control Transaction (as defined below) or (ii) any person, group or entity (including the Corporation) publicly announces a tender offer, exchange offer or other transaction to purchase 50% or more of the Common Stock (such announcement being referred to herein as a "Major Announcement" and the date on which a Major ------------------ Announcement is made, the "Announcement Date"), then, in the event that a Holder ----------------- seeks to convert Preferred Shares on or following the Announcement Date, the Conversion Price shall, effective upon the Announcement Date and continuing through the fifth (5th) Business Day following the earlier to occur of the consummation of the proposed transaction or tender offer, exchange offer or other transaction and the Abandonment Date (as defined below), be equal to the lowest of (x) the Conversion Price in effect on the Announcement Date, (y) the Market Price on the Announcement Date and (z) the Conversion Price that would otherwise be in effect on the Conversion Date for such Preferred Shares. "Abandonment Date" means with respect to any proposed transaction or tender ---------------- offer, exchange offer or other transaction for which a public announcement as contemplated by this paragraph 6(e) has been made, the date upon which the Corporation (in the case of clause (i) above) or the person, group or entity (in the case of clause (ii) above) publicly announces the termination or abandonment of the proposed transaction or tender offer, exchange offer or another transaction which caused this paragraph 6(e) to become operative. (f) Issuance of Other Securities. If, at any time after the Exchange Date ---------------------------- (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), the Corporation shall issue any securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common ("Convertible Securities") either (i) at a conversion or exchange rate based on a discount from the Market Price of the Common Stock at the time of conversion or exercise or (ii) with a fixed conversion or exercise price less than the Conversion Price, then, at the Holder's option: (x) in the case of clause (i), the Conversion Price in respect of any conversion of the Preferred Shares after such issuance shall be calculated utilizing the greatest discount applicable to any such Convertible Securities; and (y) in the case of clause (ii), the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced. If the Corporation shall issue any Convertible Securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock on a basis different from that of these Articles of Amendment, each Holder may elect that the provisions of these Articles of Amendment be revised to incorporate such different provisions with respect to conversion or exchange, subject to the limitations of Section 5 hereof; provided, however, Purchaser may not select provisions on a non-integrated basis which would have an inequitable result on the intent of this provision. (g) Adjustment Pursuant to Other Agreements. In addition to and without --------------------------------------- limiting in any way the adjustments provided in this Section 6, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as may be -30- required by the provisions of the Registration Agreement and/or by the provisions of the Exchange Agreement. (h) No Fractional Shares. If any adjustment under this Section would -------------------- create a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon Conversion shall be rounded to the nearest whole number of shares. (i) Exceptions to Adjustment of Conversion Price. No adjustment to the -------------------------------------------- Conversion Price will be made (i) upon the exercise or conversion of any warrants, options or convertible securities issued and outstanding on the date on which the Company's Series B Preferred Stock was issued in accordance with the terms of such securities as of such date; (ii) upon the grant or exercise of any stock or options which may hereafter be granted or exercised under any employee, consultant or director benefit plan of the Corporation now existing or to be implemented in the future, so long as the issuance of such stock or options is approved by a majority of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation or a majority of the members of a committee of non- employee directors established for such purpose; (iii) upon the issuance of the Conversion Shares; or (iv) upon the exercise of the Warrants (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement). 7. REDEMPTION. ---------- (a) Mandatory Redemption. In the event that a Mandatory Redemption Event -------------------- (as defined below) occurs, each Holder shall have the right to require the Corporation to redeem all or any portion of the Preferred Shares held by such Holder (a "Mandatory Redemption") at the Mandatory Redemption Price (as defined -------------------- herein). In order to exercise its right to effect a Mandatory Redemption, a Holder must deliver a written notice (a "Mandatory Redemption Notice") to the --------------------------- Corporation at any time on or before 11:59 p.m. (eastern time) on the third (3/rd/) Business Day following the Business Day on which the Mandatory Redemption Event to which such Mandatory Redemption Notice relates is no longer continuing. The Mandatory Redemption Notice shall specify the effective date of such Mandatory Redemption (the "Mandatory Redemption Date") and the number of ------------------------- such shares to be redeemed. (b) Mandatory Redemption Event. Each of the following events shall be -------------------------- deemed a Mandatory Redemption Event": -------------------------- (i) the Corporation fails, as a result of (x) not having a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance, (y) failing to obtain the approval of its stockholders as required by paragraph 5(a) hereof, or (z) for any other reason within the control of the Corporation, to issue shares of Common Stock to a Holder and deliver certificates representing such shares (without any restrictive legend under the circumstances described in paragraph 4(e) hereof) to such Holder as and when required by the provisions hereof upon conversion of any Preferred Shares, and such failure continues for ten (10) Business Days; -31- (ii) the Corporation breaches, in a material respect, any covenant or other material term or condition of these Articles of Amendment, the Exchange Agreement, the Registration Agreement, or any other agreement, document, certificate or other instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or in connection with any other prior transactions entered into between the Company and the Holder, and such breach continues for a period of five (5) Business Days after written notice thereof to the Corporation from a Holder; (iii) any material representation or warranty made by the Corporation in the Exchange Agreement, the Registration Agreement, or any other agreement, document, certificate or other instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or in connection with any other prior transactions entered into between the Company and the Holder is inaccurate or misleading in any material respect as of the date such representation or warranty was made; (iv) (x) the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, the effectuation of a transaction or series of transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Corporation is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Corporation with or into any other entity, immediately following which the prior stockholders of the Corporation fail to own, directly or indirectly, at least fifty percent (50%) of the surviving entity or (y) a transaction or series of transactions in which any person acquires control of the Corporation (each a "Change of Control Transaction"). For purposes hereof, "control" shall mean, with respect to the Corporation, the ability to direct the ------- business, operations or management of the Corporation, whether through an equity interest therein or otherwise; and (v) the Common Stock is not quoted on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market or Nasdaq National Market or listed on the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange, or trading in the Common Stock on such market or exchange is suspended and such suspension is in effect for more than five consecutive (5) Trading Days, and such suspension or failure to be so quoted or listed occurs as a result of any willful action or failure to act on the part of the Corporation. (c) Mandatory Redemption Price. The "Mandatory Redemption Price" shall be -------------------------- -------------------------- equal to the greater of (i) the Liquidation Preference of the Preferred Shares being redeemed multiplied by one hundred and twenty five percent (125%) and (ii) ------------- an amount determined by dividing the Liquidation Preference of the Preferred Shares being redeemed by the Conversion Price in effect on the Mandatory Redemption Date and multiplying the resulting quotient by the average Closing Trade Price for the Common Stock on the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding (but not including) the Mandatory Redemption Date. -32- (d) Payment of Mandatory Redemption Price. ------------------------------------- (i) The Corporation shall pay the Mandatory Redemption Price to the Holder exercising its right to redemption on the later to occur of (i) the fifth (5th) Business Day following the Mandatory Redemption Date and (ii) the date on which the Preferred Shares being redeemed are delivered by the Purchaser to the Corporation for cancellation (the "Mandatory Redemption Payment Date"). --------------------------------- (ii) If Corporation fails to pay the Mandatory Redemption Price to the Holder on or before the Mandatory Redemption Date, the Holder shall be entitled to interest thereon, from and after the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date until the Mandatory Redemption Price has been paid in full, at an annual rate equal to the Default Interest Rate. (iii) If the Corporation fails to pay the Mandatory Redemption Price within ten (10) Business Days of the Mandatory Redemption Date, then the Holder shall have the right to regain its rights as a Holder of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock and, upon written notice to such effect from the Holder, the Corporation shall return to such Holder the certificates representing the Preferred Shares that were delivered to the Corporation in connection with such Mandatory Redemption; in such event, the Conversion Price otherwise applicable to future Conversions of the Preferred Shares shall be reduced by one percent (1%) for each day beyond such 10th Business Day in which the failure to pay the Mandatory Redemption Price continued until the date of such notice; provided, however, that the maximum percentage by which such Conversion Price may be reduced hereunder shall be fifty percent (50%). 8. MISCELLANEOUS. ------------- (a) Transfer of Preferred Shares. Upon notice to the Corporation, a Holder ---------------------------- may sell or transfer all or any portion of the Preferred Shares to any person or entity as long as such sale or transfer is the subject of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or is exempt from registration thereunder and otherwise is made in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Holder shall knowingly and voluntarily sell any Preferred Shares to an entity that is a competitor of the Corporation. From and after the date of such sale or transfer, the transferee thereof shall be deemed to be a Holder. Upon any such sale or transfer, the Corporation shall, promptly following the return of the certificate or certificates representing the Preferred Shares that are the subject of such sale or transfer, issue and deliver to such transferee a new certificate in the name of such transferee. (b) Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, any notice, demand or ------- request required or permitted to be given pursuant to the terms hereof, the form or delivery of which notice, demand or request is not otherwise specified herein, shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered (i) when delivered personally or by verifiable facsimile transmission on or before 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on a Business Day or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day, (ii) on the next Business Day after timely delivery to an overnight courier and (iii) on -33- the day actually received if deposited in the U.S. mail (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid), addressed to the parties as follows: If to the Corporation: WEBB Interactive Services, Inc. 1899 Wynkoop, Suite 600 Denver, Colorado 80202 Tel: 303-296-9200 Fax: 303-295-3584 Attention: William Cullen with a copy to: Gray, Plant, Mooty, Mooty & Bennett, P.A. 3400 City Center 33 South Sixth Street Minneapolis, MN 55402-3796 Telecopy: (612) 333-0066 Attention: Lindley S.

Upon receipt by the Corporation of -------------------------- evidence of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a certificate representing Preferred Shares, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation and the Transfer Agent, and upon surrender and cancellation of such certificate if mutilated, the Corporation shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new certificate identical in all respects to the original certificate. (d) No Voting Rights. Except as provided by applicable law and paragraph ---------------- 8(g) below, the Holders of the Preferred Shares shall have no voting rights with respect to the business, management or affairs of the Corporation; provided that the Corporation shall provide each Holder with prior notification of each meeting of stockholders (and copies of proxy statements and other information sent to such stockholders). (e) Remedies, Characterization, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Relief. The remedies provided to a Holder in these Articles of Amendment shall - ------ be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available to such Holder under these Articles of Amendment or under any Transaction Document (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), at law or in equity (including without limitation a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such -34- remedy and nothing contained herein shall limit such Holder's right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms of these Articles of Amendment. The Corporation agrees with each Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as specifically provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder hereof and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Corporation (or the performance thereof). The Corporation acknowledges that a material breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holders and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Corporation agrees, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, each Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. (f) Failure or Delay not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of a --------------------------- Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. (g) Protective Provisions. --------------------- So long as shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without first obtaining the approval of the Holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of outstanding shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock: (i) alter, change, modify or amend (x) the terms of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock in any way or (y) the terms of any other capital stock of the Corporation so as to affect adversely the Series B-2 Preferred Stock; (ii) create any new class or series of capital stock having a preference over or ranking pari passu with the Series B-2 Preferred Stock as to redemption or distribution of assets upon a Liquidation Event or any other liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation; (iii) increase the authorized number of shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock; (iv) re-issue any shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock which have been converted or redeemed in accordance with the terms hereof; (v) issue any Pari Passu Securities or Senior Securities; (vi) redeem, or declare, pay or make any provision for any dividend or distribution with respect to, the Common Stock or any other capital stock of the Corporation ranking 35 junior to the Series B-2 Preferred Stock as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation; or (vii) issue any Series B-2 Preferred Stock except pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement. In the event that the Holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock agrees to allow the Corporation to alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms hereof, then the Corporation will deliver notice of such approved change to the holders of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock that did not agree to such alteration or change (the "Dissenting Holders") and ------------------ the Dissenting Holders shall have the right for a period of thirty (30) days following such delivery to convert their Preferred Shares pursuant to the terms hereof as they existed prior to such alteration or change, or to continue to hold such Preferred Shares. No such change shall be effective to the extent that, by its terms, it applies to less than all of the Holders of Preferred Shares then outstanding.

The Registration Statement shall state, to the extent permitted by Rule 416 under the Securities Act, that it also covers such indeterminate number of shares of Common Stock as may be required to effect conversion of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock in order to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar events. (b) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof, but in no event later than the Registration Deadline. The Company shall respond promptly to any and all comments made by the staff of the Commission on the Registration Statement (but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days following the Company's receipt thereof), and shall submit to the Commission, within three (3) Business Days after the Company learns that no review of the Registration Statement will be made by the staff of the Commission or that the staff of the Commission has no further comments on the Registration Statement, as the case may be, a request for acceleration of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement to a time and date not later than forty eight (48) hours after the submission of such request. The Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement and (ii) the date on which all of the remaining Registrable Securities (in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Holders) may be immediately sold to the public without registration and without regard to the amount of Registrable Securities which may be sold by a Holder thereof at a given time (the period beginning on the Registration Deadline and ending on the earlier of such dates being referred to herein as the "Registration Period"). ------------------- 39 (c) If the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or before April 15, 2001 (a "Default Event"), the Company shall ------------- pay to each Holder an amount equal to the lesser of (x) two percent (2%) per thirty calendar day period (prorated for any period of less than thirty calendar days) and (y) the highest rate permitted by applicable law, times the Stated ----- Value of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock initially issued to such Holder, accruing daily and compounded monthly, from the date on which a Default Event occurs until the date on which such Default Event has been cured and is no longer continuing, provided that such amount will not accrue or be payable to a Holder with respect to any day on which such Default Event was primarily caused by an act or failure to act by a Holder.

PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION. ---------------------- If at any time prior to the expiration of the Registration Period, (i) the Company proposes to register shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such shares for cash (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock plan or employee stock award or a registration on Form S-4 under the Securities Act or any successor or similar form registering stock issuable upon a reclassification, a business combination involving an exchange of securities or an exchange offer for securities of the issuer or another entity, or a registration statement on Form S-3 covering the resale of securities issued in connection with a corporate acquisition) (a "Proposed Registration") and (ii) --------------------- a registration statement covering the sale of all of the Registrable Securities is not then effective and available for sales thereof by the Holders, the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such Proposed Registration. Each Holder shall have twenty (20) days from its receipt of such notice to deliver to the Company a written request specifying the amount of Registrable Securities that such Holder intends to sell and such Holder's intended method of distribution. Upon receipt of such request, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of such Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to postpone or - -------- ------- withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 3 without obligation to the Holder. If, in connection with any underwritten public offering for the account of the Company or for shareholders of the Company that have contractual rights to require the Company to register shares of Common Stock, the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall impose a limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock which may be included in the Registration Statement because, in the judgment of such underwriter(s), marketing or other factors dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate such offering, then the Company shall be obligated to include in such Registration Statement only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which each Holder has requested inclusion hereunder as such underwriter(s) shall permit. Any such 40 exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata among the Holders seeking to include Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement, in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities sought to be included by such Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities, the holders of which are not entitled to inclusion of such securities in such Registration Statement or are not entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities; and provided, further, that, after giving effect to the immediately preceding proviso, any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata with holders of other securities having the right to include such securities in the Registration Statement. 4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. -------------------------- In addition to performing its obligations hereunder, including without limitation those pursuant to paragraphs 2(a) and 2(b) above, the Company shall: (a) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act or to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement during the Registration Period, or as may be reasonably requested within a reasonable time prior to any proposed sale by a Holder in order to incorporate information concerning such Holder or such Holder's intended method of distribution; (b) secure the listing of all Registrable Securities on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market prior to the date on which the Registration Statement relating to such Registrable Securities becomes effective; (c) furnish to each Holder such number of copies of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, including a preliminary prospectus, if any, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as such Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of such Holder's Registrable Securities; (d) use all commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as shall be reasonably requested from time to time by a Holder, and do any and all other acts or things which may be necessary or advisable to enable such Holder to consummate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction; (e) in the event of an underwritten public offering of the Registrable Securities, enter into (together with all Holders proposing to distribute Registrable Securities through such underwriting) and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form reasonably acceptable to the Company, with the managing underwriter of such offering; 41 (f) notify each Holder immediately upon the occurrence of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, contains an untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, and as promptly as practicable, prepare, file and furnish to each Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or an amendment to such prospectus as may be necessary so that such prospectus does not contain an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing; (g) use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal thereof at the earliest possible time and to notify each Holder of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof; (h) furnish to each Holder, on the date that such Registration Statement becomes effective, (x) a letter, dated such date, of outside counsel representing the Company (and reasonably acceptable to such Holder) addressed to such Holder, confirming the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and, to the knowledge of such counsel, the absence of any stop order, and (y) in the case of an underwriting, (A) an opinion addressed to the underwriters, dated such date, of such outside counsel, in such form and substance as is required to be given to such underwriters, and (B) a letter addressed to such underwriters, dated such date, from the Company's independent certified public accountants, in such form and substance as is required to be given by the Company's independent certified public accountants to such underwriters; (i) provide each Holder and its representatives the opportunity to conduct a reasonable inquiry of the Company's financial and other records during normal business hours and make available its officers, directors and employees for questions regarding information which such Holder may reasonably request in order to fulfill any due diligence obligation on its part; and (j) permit counsel retained for such purpose by each Holder to review the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto, and any comments made by the staff of the Commission and the Company's responses thereto, within a reasonable period of time prior to the filing thereof with the Commission (or, in the case of comments made by the staff of the Commission, within a reasonable period of time following the receipt thereof by the Company) and amend such materials in accordance with the comments of such counsel. 5. OBLIGATIONS OF EACH HOLDER. -------------------------- In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, each Holder shall: 42 (a) furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding itself and the intended method of disposition of Registrable Securities as the Company shall reasonably request in order to effect the registration thereof; (b) upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in paragraphs 4(f) or 4(g), immediately discontinue any sale or other disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement until the filing of an amendment or supplement as described in paragraph 4(f) or withdrawal of the stop order referred to in paragraph 4(g); (c) in the event of an underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities, enter into a customary and reasonable underwriting agreement and execute such other documents as the managing underwriter for such offering may reasonably request; (d) to the extent required by applicable law, deliver a prospectus to the purchaser of Registrable Securities; (e) notify the Company when it has sold all of the Registrable Securities theretofore held by it; and (f) promptly notify the Company in the event that any information supplied by such Holder in writing for inclusion in the Registration Statement or related prospectus is untrue or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make such information not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. 6. INDEMNIFICATION. --------------- In the event that any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement: (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, employees and agents of such Holder, and each person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or reasonable -------- out-of-pocket expenses (whether joint or several) (collectively, including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same, "Losses"), insofar as any such Losses arise out of or are based ------ upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus, if any, or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, or (ii) the 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 under which they were made, not misleading. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 6(c) below, the Company will 43 reimburse such Holder, and each such officer, director, employee, agent or controlling person for any legal or other expenses as reasonably incurred by any such entity or person in connection with investigating or defending any Loss; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Loss if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be obligated to indemnify any person for any Loss to the extent that such Loss arises out of or is based upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such person expressly for use in such Registration Statement; and provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to indemnify any person to the extent that any Loss results from such person selling Registrable Securities (i) to a person to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such shares, a copy of the prospectus, as most recently amended or supplemented, if the Company has previously furnished or made available copies thereof or (ii) during any period following written notice by the Company to such Holder of an event described in paragraph 4(f) or 4(g). (b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder, acting severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives of the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the 1934 Act, against any Losses to the extent (and only to the extent) that any such Losses arise out of or are based upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in such Registration Statement; and such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses as reasonably incurred by the Company and any such officer, director, employee, agent, representative, or controlling person, in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Loss if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that, in no event shall any indemnity under this paragraph 6(b) exceed the net proceeds resulting from the sale of the Registrable Securities sold by such Holder under the Registration Statement. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the reasonably incurred fees and expenses of one such counsel to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential conflicting interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, to the extent prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 6 with respect to such action, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that 44 it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 6 or with respect to any other action unless the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced as a result of not receiving such notice. (d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph 6(a) or 6(b) is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company and each Holder agree, severally and not jointly, to contribute to the aggregate Losses to which the Company or such Holder may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and such Holder in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses; provided, however, that in no case shall such Holder be responsible for any amount in excess of the proceeds resulting from the sale of the Registrable Securities sold by it under the Registration Statement. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether any alleged untrue statement or omission relates to information provided by the Company or by such Holder. The Company and each Holder agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph 6(d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to indemnification or contribution from any person who is not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6, each person who controls a Holder within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each officer, director, employee or agent of such Holder shall have the same rights to contribution as such Holder, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each officer, director, employee or agent of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph 6(d). (e) The obligations of the Company and each Holder under this Section 6 shall survive the conversion of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock in full, the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement under this Agreement, or otherwise. 7. REPORTS. ------- With a view to making available to each Holder the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act ("Rule 144") and any other similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit such Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees to: (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the 1934 Act; and 45 (c) furnish to such Holder, so long as such Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon written request (i) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, and the 1934 Act, (ii) to the extent not publicly available through the Commission's EDGAR database, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing such Holder of any rule or regulation of the Commission which permits the selling of any such securities without registration. 8. MISCELLANEOUS. ------------- (a) Expenses of Registration.

(b) Amendment; Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended ----------------- only pursuant to a written instrument executed by the Company and the Holder. Any waiver of the provisions of this Agreement may be made only pursuant to a written instrument executed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. The failure of any party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, or the delay by any party in exercising such right or remedy, shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

(collectively, the "Applicable Reporting -------------------- Entity"). If the Closing Bid Price cannot be calculated for such security on - ------ any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Bid Price of such security shall be the fair market value as reasonably determined by an independent investment banking firm selected by all of the Holders of Preferred Shares, and reasonably acceptable to the Corporation, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by the Corporation.

The Corporation shall effect delivery of Conversion Shares to a Holder by, as long as the transfer agent for the Corporation (the "Transfer Agent") -------------- participates in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities --- Transfer program ("FAST"), crediting the account of such Holder or its nominee ---- at DTC (as specified in the applicable Conversion Notice or otherwise in writing) with the number of Conversion Shares required to be delivered, no later than the close of business on such Delivery Date. In the event that Transfer Agent is not a participant in FAST, or if Conversion Shares are not otherwise eligible for delivery through FAST, or if a Holder so specifies in a Conversion Notice or otherwise in writing on or before the Delivery Date, the Corporation shall effect delivery of Conversion Shares by delivering to the Holder or its nominee physical certificates representing such shares, no later than the close of business on such Delivery Date.

(f) Failure to Deliver Conversion Shares. ------------------------------------ (i) In the event that, as a result of any willful action or failure to act on the part of the Corporation (whether under these Articles of Amendment, under any other Transaction Document (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) or otherwise, including without limitation a failure by the Corporation to have a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance pursuant to conversions of Preferred Shares), a Holder has not received certificates (without any restrictive legend in the circumstances described in clause (A), (B) or (C) of paragraph 4(e) above) representing the number of Conversion Shares specified in the applicable Conversion Notice on or before the Delivery Date therefor (a "Conversion Default"), and such failure to ------------------ deliver certificates continues for ten (10) Business Days following the delivery of written notice thereof from such Holder (such tenth Business Day being referred to herein as the "Conversion Default Date"), the Corporation shall pay ----------------------- to such Holder payments ("Conversion ---------- -24- Default Payments") in the amount of (i) "N" multiplied by (ii) the aggregate - ---------------- ------------- Stated Value of the Preferred Shares which are the subject of such Conversion Default multiplied by (iii) one percent (1%), where "N" equals the number of ------------- days elapsed between the Conversion Default Date and the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which all of the certificates (without any restrictive legend in the circumstances described in clause (A), (B) or (C) of paragraph 4(e) above) representing such Conversion Shares are issued and delivered to such Holder, (ii) the date on which such Preferred Shares are redeemed pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) the date on which a Withdrawal Notice (as defined below) is delivered to the Corporation. Amounts payable hereunder shall be paid to the Holder in immediately available funds on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day of the calendar month immediately following the calendar month in which such amounts have accrued. (ii) In the event that a Holder has not received certificates (without any restrictive legend in the circumstances described in clause (A), (B) or (C) of paragraph 4(e) above) representing the Conversion Shares by the tenth (10/th/) Business Day following a Conversion Default as a result of any willful action or any failure to act on the part of the Corporation (whether under these Articles of Amendment, under any other Transaction Document (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) or otherwise, including without limitation a failure by the Corporation to have a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance pursuant to conversions of Preferred Shares), such Holder may, upon written notice (a "Withdrawal Notice") delivered ----------------- to the Corporation on such Business Day or on any Business Day thereafter (unless, prior to the delivery of such notice, such Conversion Shares are delivered to such Holder), withdraw its Conversion Notice with respect to such Conversion Shares and regain its rights as a Holder of the Preferred Shares that are the subject of such Conversion Default. In such event, the Conversion Price in effect when such Preferred Shares are thereafter converted shall be equal to the lower of (x) the lowest Conversion Price and (y) the lowest Market Price occurring on or after the date of such Conversion Notice reduced by one percent (1%) for each day occurring during the period immediately following such 10th Business Day until the day on which the such Holder delivers a Withdrawal Notice to the Corporation; provided, however, that the maximum percentage by which such Conversion Price may be reduced hereunder shall be fifty percent (50%). (For example, if such Conversion Default were to continue for five days following such 10th Business Day, such Conversion Price would be reduced by 5%; if for ten days, by 10%; and for fifty days or more, 50%, so that the number of Conversion Shares deliverable upon conversion of such Preferred Shares would be increased proportionately). Upon delivery by a Holder of a Withdrawal Notice, such Holder shall retain all of such Holder's rights and remedies with respect to the Corporation's failure to deliver such Conversion Shares (including without limitation the right to receive the cash payments specified in subparagraph 4(f)(i) above). -25- (iii) In addition to any other remedies provided herein, each Holder shall have the right to pursue actual damages for the Corporation's failure to issue and deliver Conversion Shares on the applicable Delivery Date (including, without limitation, damages relating to any purchase of shares of Common Stock by such Holder to make delivery on a sale lawfully effected in anticipation of receiving Conversion Shares upon Conversion, such damages to be in an amount equal to (A) the aggregate amount paid by such Holder for the shares of Common Stock so purchased minus (B) the aggregate Conversion Price for such Conversion ----- Shares, and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all other remedies available to it at law or in equity (including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief). (g) Conversion at Maturity. On the later of December 31, 2000, or ---------------------- ten from a (10) days after the Effective Date (the "Determination Date"), all Preferred Shares then held by the Holders (and with respect to which a Holder has not submitted a Notice of Conversion) shall be automatically converted into the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Stated Value of such Preferred Shares divided by the Conversion Price then in effect (a "Conversion at ---------- ------------- Maturity"); provided, however, that if, on the Determination Date, (i) the - -------- number of shares of Common Stock authorized, unissued and unreserved for all other purposes, or held in the Corporation's treasury, is not sufficient to effect the issuance and delivery of the number of Conversion Shares into which all outstanding Preferred Shares are then convertible, (ii) the Common Stock is not actively traded on either the Nasdaq National or SmallCap Market, (iii) a Mandatory Redemption Event (as defined herein) has occurred and is continuing, (iv) the conversion of a Holder's Preferred Shares pursuant to the Conversion at Maturity would violate the provisions of Section 5 below if effected by such Holder; provided, however, that in such event the Conversion at Maturity would -------- ------- apply solely to those Preferred Shares the conversion of which would not violate Section 5 as of the Determination Date and provided, further, that the -------- ------- determination on the Determination Date of a Holder's beneficial ownership of Common Stock pursuant to paragraph 5(b) above shall exclude any shares of Common Stock acquired by such Holder otherwise than pursuant to (i) the conversion or exercise of securities outstanding on the date hereof or (ii) the conversion or exercise of securities where such conversion or exercise occurred prior to September 14, 2000, or (v) the Registration Statement for the Conversion Shares (as defined in the Registration Agreement) is not effective and available for the resale of all Conversion Shares issuable on the Determination Date upon the conversion or exercise of all Preferred Shares then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on such conversion), each Holder shall have the option, upon written notice to the Corporation, to regain its rights as a holder of Preferred Shares (which, in the circumstances described in clause (iv) above, would comprise the Preferred Shares not converted pursuant to the proviso of clause (iv)), including without limitation, the right to convert such Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms of paragraphs 4(a) through 4(f) hereof and, upon delivery of such notice, such Preferred Shares shall not be subject to a Conversion at Maturity hereunder until the thirtieth (30/th/) day following the later of (a) the date on which the event specified (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), or (v) is no longer continuing and (b) the date on which the Corporation delivers to each Holder written notice to such effect, and in such event, such thirtieth day shall be deemed to be the Determination Date for purposes of these Articles of Amendment. In the event that the Registration Statement for the Conversion Shares (as defined in the Registration Agreement) has not been effective and available to each Holder for the resale of the -26- maximum number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of such Holder's Preferred Shares (without regard to any limitations on such conversion or exercise), for any period or periods on or after the Effective Date and before the Determination Date (collectively, a "Blackout Period"), the --------------- Determination Date (the "Original Determination Date") shall be delayed for a --------------------------- period of days equal to the Blackout Period (the Trading Day immediately following last day of such period being referred to herein as the "Delayed ------- Determination Date") and the Delayed Determination Date shall be deemed to be - ------------------ the Determination Date for the purposes of these Articles of Amendment. If a Conversion at Maturity occurs, the Corporation and each Holder shall follow the procedures for Conversion set forth in this Section 4, with the Determination Date deemed to be the Conversion Date, except that the Holder shall not be required to send a Conversion Notice as contemplated by paragraph 4(b). 5. CONVERSION LIMITATIONS. ---------------------- In no event shall a Holder be permitted to convert any Preferred Shares in excess of the number of such shares, upon the Conversion of which: (a) the number of Conversion Shares to be issued pursuant to such Conversion, prior Conversions of Preferred Shares by the Holders thereof, would exceed the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable by the Corporation without stockholder approval in compliance with the continued listing requirements of either the Nasdaq National or SmallCap Market (the "Cap --- Amount"), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that (i) the - ------ Corporation obtains the approval of the holders of a majority of the Corporation's Common Stock for the issuance of Common Stock in excess of the Cap Amount (it being understood that any Holder whose Cap Allocation Amount (as defined below) represents less than (A) the number of Conversion Shares into which the Preferred Shares then held by such Holder are convertible at the Conversion Price then in effect (without regard to any restrictions or limitations on such conversion) plus (B) the number of Conversion Shares into ---- such Holder has previously converted Preferred Shares shall have the right to require the Corporation, upon written notice to such effect, to seek such approval by means of a special meeting of stockholders to be held as soon as practicable following the Corporation's receipt of such notice, but in any case within ninety (90) days following such receipt, and to recommend such approval to its stockholders at such special meeting) or (ii) the Holders of a majority of the number of Preferred Shares then outstanding obtain an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation that such approval is not required. Until such approval or opinion is obtained, no purchaser of Preferred Shares pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (each, a "Purchaser" and together the --------- "Purchasers") shall be issued, upon Conversion of the Preferred Shares, ---------- Conversion Shares in an amount greater than the product of (A) the Cap Amount times (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Preferred Shares - ----- issued to such Purchaser pursuant to the Exchange Agreement and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of all of the Preferred Shares issued to the Purchasers pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (the "Cap Allocation Amount"). In --------------------- the event that any Purchaser shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Purchaser's Preferred Shares, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Purchaser's Cap -27- Allocation Amount. In the event that any Holder converts all of such Holder's Preferred Shares into a number of Conversion Shares which, in the aggregate, is less than such Holder's Cap Allocation Amount, then the difference between such Holder's Cap Allocation Amount and the number of Conversion Shares actually issued to such Holder shall be allocated to the respective Cap Allocation Amounts of the remaining Holders of Preferred Shares on a pro rata basis in proportion to the number of Preferred Shares then held by each such Holder; or (b) (x) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder (other than shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Preferred Shares or which would otherwise be deemed beneficially owned except for being subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this paragraph 5(b)) plus (y) the number of shares of ---- Common Stock issuable upon the Conversion of such Preferred Shares, would be equal to or exceed (z) 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issued and outstanding upon such conversion. As used herein, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this paragraph applies (and without limiting any rights the Corporation may otherwise have), the Corporation may rely on the Holder's determination of whether Preferred Shares are convertible pursuant to the terms hereof, the Corporation having no obligation whatsoever to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination, and the submission of a Conversion Notice by the Holder shall be deemed to be the Holder's representation that the Preferred Shares specified therein are convertible pursuant to the terms hereof. This paragraph may be amended by all of the Holders of Preferred Shares then outstanding only with the consent of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to restrict the right of a Holder to convert Preferred Shares at such time as the Conversion thereof will not violate the provisions of this paragraph 5(b). 6. ADJUSTMENTS TO CONVERSION PRICE. ------------------------------- (a) Adjustment to Conversion Price Due to Stock Split, Stock Dividend, ------------------------------------------------------------------ Etc. If, prior to the Conversion of all of the Preferred Shares, (A) the number - --- of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock split, a stock dividend on the Common Stock, a reclassification of the Common Stock, or other similar event, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced, which reduction shall be effected on the date on which the Corporation announces such event; or (B) the Corporation issues Common Stock, whether upon the exercise of rights, warrants, securities convertible or exercisable into Common Stock or otherwise, at a price (the "Issue Price") that is less than the current Market ----------- Price thereof at the time of such issuance, the Conversion Price that would otherwise be in effect on a particular date following such issuance shall be proportionately reduced in order to account for the difference between the Issue Price and such Market Price; provided, however, that if the Issue Price is lower than the Conversion Price otherwise in effect on the date of such issuance, such Conversion Price will be reduced to the lower of the amount determined by this clause (B) and the amount determined by clause (D) below; (C) the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a reverse stock split, combination or reclassification of shares or other similar event, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately increased, which increase shall be 28 effected on the date on which the Corporation announces such event; or (D) the Corporation issues Common Stock, whether upon the exercise of rights, warrants, securities convertible or exercisable into Common Stock or otherwise, at a price that is lower than the Conversion Price in effect on any Conversion Date following the date of such issuance, such Conversion Price shall be reduced to such lower price. In no event shall any adjustment pursuant to clause (B) or clause (D) above result in a Conversion Price that exceeds the Conversion Price that would otherwise apply in the absence of such adjustment. (b) [intentionally omitted] ----------------------- (c) Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, prior to the -------------------------------------------- Conversion of all of the Preferred Shares, there shall be any merger, consolidation, business combination, tender offer, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, redemption or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes of stock or securities of the Corporation or another entity (an "Exchange Transaction"), then such -------------------- Holder shall (A) upon the consummation of such Exchange Transaction, have the right to receive, with respect to any shares of Common Stock then held by such Holder, or which such Holder is then entitled to receive pursuant to a Conversion Notice previously delivered by such Holder (and without regard to whether such shares contain a restrictive legend or are freely-tradable), the same amount and type of consideration (including without limitation, stock, securities and/or other assets) and on the same terms as a holder of shares of Common Stock would be entitled to receive in connection with the consummation of such Exchange Transaction (the "Exchange Consideration"), and (B) upon the ---------------------- Conversion of Preferred Shares occurring subsequent to the consummation of such Exchange Transaction (a "Subsequent Conversion"), have the right to receive the --------------------- Exchange Consideration which such Holder would have been entitled to receive in connection with such Exchange Transaction had such shares been converted immediately prior to such Exchange Transaction at the Conversion Price applicable on the Conversion Date relating to such Subsequent Conversion, and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of such Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for the adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a Conversion) shall thereafter be applicable as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities thereafter deliverable upon the Conversion of such Preferred Shares. The Corporation shall not effect any Exchange Transaction unless (i) it first gives to each Holder twenty (20) days prior written notice of such Exchange Transaction (an "Exchange Notice"), and makes a public announcement of such --------------- event at the same time that it gives such notice (it being understood that the filing by the Corporation of a Form 8-K for the purpose of disclosing the anticipated consummation of the Exchange Transaction shall constitute an Exchange Notice for purposes of this provision) and (ii) the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Corporation) assumes by written instrument the obligations of the Corporation hereunder, including the terms of this subparagraph 6(c), and under the Exchange Agreement and the Registration Agreement. 29 (d) Distribution of Assets. If the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries ---------------------- shall declare or make any distribution of cash, evidences of indebtedness or other securities or assets (other than cash dividends or distributions payable out of earned surplus or net profits for the current or the immediately preceding year), or any rights to acquire any of the foregoing, to holders of Common Stock (or to a holder, other than the Corporation, of the common stock of any such subsidiary) as a partial liquidating dividend, by way of return of capital or otherwise, including any dividend or distribution in shares of capital stock of a subsidiary of the Corporation (collectively, a "Distribution"), then each Holder shall be entitled to receive, at the same time ------------ as such assets are received by a holder of such stock, an amount and type of such Distribution as though such Holder were a holder on the record date therefor of a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Liquidation Preference of the Preferred Shares held by such Holder on such record date by the lower of the Market Price and the Conversion Price in effect on such record date (such number of shares to be determined without regard to any limitation on conversion of the Preferred Shares that may exist pursuant to these Articles of Amendment or otherwise). (e) Adjustment Due to Major Announcement. If the Corporation (i) makes a ------------------------------------ public announcement that it intends to enter into a Change of Control Transaction (as defined below) or (ii) any person, group or entity (including the Corporation) publicly announces a tender offer, exchange offer or other transaction to purchase 50% or more of the Common Stock (such announcement being referred to herein as a "Major Announcement" and the date on which a Major ------------------ Announcement is made, the "Announcement Date"), then, in the event that a Holder ----------------- seeks to convert Preferred Shares on or following the Announcement Date, the Conversion Price shall, effective upon the Announcement Date and continuing through the fifth (5th) Business Day following the earlier to occur of the consummation of the proposed transaction or tender offer, exchange offer or other transaction and the Abandonment Date (as defined below), be equal to the lowest of (x) the Conversion Price in effect on the Announcement Date, (y) the Market Price on the Announcement Date and (z) the Conversion Price that would otherwise be in effect on the Conversion Date for such Preferred Shares. "Abandonment Date" means with respect to any proposed transaction or tender ---------------- offer, exchange offer or other transaction for which a public announcement as contemplated by this paragraph 6(e) has been made, the date upon which the Corporation (in the case of clause (i) above) or the person, group or entity (in the case of clause (ii) above) publicly announces the termination or abandonment of the proposed transaction or tender offer, exchange offer or another transaction which caused this paragraph 6(e) to become operative. (f) Issuance of Other Securities. If, at any time after the Exchange Date ---------------------------- (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), the Corporation shall issue any securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common ("Convertible Securities") either (i) at a conversion or exchange rate based on a discount from the Market Price of the Common Stock at the time of conversion or exercise or (ii) with a fixed conversion or exercise price less than the Conversion Price, then, at the Holder's option: (x) in the case of clause (i), the Conversion Price in respect of any conversion of the Preferred Shares after such issuance shall be calculated utilizing the greatest discount applicable to any such Convertible Securities; and (y) in the case of clause (ii), the Conversion Price shall be 30 proportionately reduced. If the Corporation shall issue any Convertible Securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock on a basis different from that of these Articles of Amendment, each Holder may elect that the provisions of these Articles of Amendment be revised to incorporate such different provisions with respect to conversion or exchange, subject to the limitations of Section 5 hereof; provided, however, Purchaser may not select provisions on a non-integrated basis which would have an inequitable result on the intent of this provision. (g) Adjustment Pursuant to Other Agreements. In addition to and without --------------------------------------- limiting in any way the adjustments provided in this Section 6, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as may be required by the provisions of the Registration Agreement and/or by the provisions of the Exchange Agreement. (h) No Fractional Shares. If any adjustment under this Section would -------------------- create a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon Conversion shall be rounded to the nearest whole number of shares. (i) Exceptions to Adjustment of Conversion Price. No adjustment to the -------------------------------------------- Conversion Price will be made (i) upon the exercise or conversion of any warrants, options or convertible securities issued and outstanding on the date on which the Company's Series B Preferred Stock was issued in accordance with the terms of such securities as of such date; (ii) upon the grant or exercise of any stock or options which may hereafter be granted or exercised under any employee, consultant or director benefit plan of the Corporation now existing or to be implemented in the future, so long as the issuance of such stock or options is approved by a majority of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation or a majority of the members of a committee of non- employee directors established for such purpose; (iii) upon the issuance of the Conversion Shares; or (iv) upon the exercise of the Warrants (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement). 7. REDEMPTION. ---------- (a) Mandatory Redemption. In the event that a Mandatory Redemption Event -------------------- (as defined below) occurs, each Holder shall have the right to require the Corporation to redeem all or any portion of the Preferred Shares held by such Holder (a "Mandatory Redemption") at the Mandatory Redemption Price -------------------- (as defined herein). In order to exercise its right to effect a Mandatory Redemption, a Holder must deliver a written notice (a "Mandatory Redemption -------------------- Notice") to the Corporation at any time on or before 11:59 p.m. (eastern - ------ time) on the third (3/rd/) Business Day following the Business Day on which the Mandatory Redemption Event to which such Mandatory Redemption Notice relates is no longer continuing. The Mandatory Redemption Notice shall specify the effective date of such Mandatory Redemption (the "Mandatory Redemption Date") ------------------------- and the number of such shares to be redeemed. (b) Mandatory Redemption Event. Each of the following events shall be -------------------------- deemed a "Mandatory Redemption Event": -------------------------- 31 (i) the Corporation fails, as a result of (x) not having a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance, (y) failing to obtain the approval of its stockholders as required by paragraph 5(a) hereof, or (z) for any other reason within the control of the Corporation, to issue shares of Common Stock to a Holder and deliver certificates representing such shares (without any restrictive legend under the circumstances described in paragraph 4(e) hereof) to such Holder as and when required by the provisions hereof upon conversion of any Preferred Shares, and such failure continues for ten (10) Business Days; (ii) the Corporation breaches, in a material respect, any covenant or other material term or condition of these Articles of Amendment, the Exchange Agreement, the Registration Agreement, or any other agreement, document, certificate or other instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or in connection with any other prior transactions entered into between the Company and the Holder, and such breach continues for a period of five (5) Business Days after written notice thereof to the Corporation from a Holder; (iii) any material representation or warranty made by the Corporation in the Exchange Agreement, the Registration Agreement, or any other agreement, document, certificate or other instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or in connection with any other prior transactions entered into between the Company and the Holder is inaccurate or misleading in any material respect as of the date such representation or warranty was made; (iv) (x) the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, the effectuation of a transaction or series of transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Corporation is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Corporation with or into any other entity, immediately following which the prior stockholders of the Corporation fail to own, directly or indirectly, at least fifty percent (50%) of the surviving entity or (y) a transaction or series of transactions in which any person acquires control of the Corporation (each a "Change of Control Transaction"). For purposes hereof, "control" shall mean, with respect to the Corporation, the ability to direct the ------- business, operations or management of the Corporation, whether through an equity interest therein or otherwise; and (v) the Common Stock is not quoted on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market or Nasdaq National Market or listed on the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange, or trading in the Common Stock on such market or exchange is suspended and such suspension is in effect for more than five consecutive (5) Trading Days, and such suspension or failure to be so quoted or listed occurs as a result of any willful action or failure to act on the part of the Corporation. (c) Mandatory Redemption Price. The "Mandatory Redemption Price" shall be -------------------------- -------------------------- equal to the greater of (i) the Liquidation Preference of the Preferred Shares being redeemed multiplied by one hundred and twenty five percent (125%) and (ii) ------------- an amount determined by dividing the Liquidation Preference of the Preferred Shares being redeemed by the Conversion Price in effect on 32 the Mandatory Redemption Date and multiplying the resulting quotient by the average Closing Trade Price for the Common Stock on the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding (but not including) the Mandatory Redemption Date. (d) Payment of Mandatory Redemption Price. ------------------------------------- (i) The Corporation shall pay the Mandatory Redemption Price to the Holder exercising its right to redemption on the later to occur of (i) the fifth (5th) Business Day following the Mandatory Redemption Date and (ii) the date on which the Preferred Shares being redeemed are delivered by the Purchaser to the Corporation for cancellation (the "Mandatory Redemption Payment Date"). --------------------------------- (ii) If Corporation fails to pay the Mandatory Redemption Price to the Holder on or before the Mandatory Redemption Date, the Holder shall be entitled to interest thereon, from and after the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date until the Mandatory Redemption Price has been paid in full, at an annual rate equal to the Default Interest Rate. (iii) If the Corporation fails to pay the Mandatory Redemption Price within ten (10) Business Days of the Mandatory Redemption Date, then the Holder shall have the right to regain its rights as a Holder of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock and, upon written notice to such effect from the Holder, the Corporation shall return to such Holder the certificates representing the Preferred Shares that were delivered to the Corporation in connection with such Mandatory Redemption; in such event, the Conversion Price otherwise applicable to future Conversions of the Preferred Shares shall be reduced by one percent (1%) for each day beyond such 10th Business Day in which the failure to pay the Mandatory Redemption Price continued until the date of such notice; provided, however, that the maximum percentage by which such Conversion Price may be reduced hereunder shall be fifty percent (50%). 8. MISCELLANEOUS. ------------- (a) Transfer of Preferred Shares. Upon notice to the Corporation, a Holder ---------------------------- may sell or transfer all or any portion of the Preferred Shares to any person or entity as long as such sale or transfer is the subject of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or is exempt from registration thereunder and otherwise is made in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Holder shall knowingly and voluntarily sell any Preferred Shares to an entity that is a competitor of the Corporation. From and after the date of such sale or transfer, the transferee thereof shall be deemed to be a Holder. Upon any such sale or transfer, the Corporation shall, promptly following the return of the certificate or certificates representing the Preferred Shares that are the subject of such sale or transfer, issue and deliver to such transferee a new certificate in the name of such transferee. (b) Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, any notice, demand or ------- request required or permitted to be given pursuant to the terms hereof, the form or delivery of which notice, 33 demand or request is not otherwise specified herein, shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered (i) when delivered personally or by verifiable facsimile transmission on or before 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on a Business Day or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day, (ii) on the next Business Day after timely delivery to an overnight courier and (iii) on the day actually received if deposited in the U.S. mail (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid), addressed to the parties as follows: If to the Corporation: WEBB Interactive Services, Inc. 1899 Wynkoop, Suite 600 Denver, Colorado 80202 Tel: 303-296-9200 Fax: 303-295-3584 Attention: William Cullen with a copy to: Gray, Plant, Mooty, Mooty & Bennett, P.A. 3400 City Center 33 South Sixth Street Minneapolis, MN 55402-3796 Telecopy: (612) 333-0066 Attention: Lindley S. Branson, Esq. and if to any Holder, to such address for such Holder as shall be designated by such Holder in writing to the Corporation. (c) Lost or Stolen Certificate. Upon receipt by the Corporation of -------------------------- evidence of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a certificate representing Preferred Shares, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation and the Transfer Agent, and upon surrender and cancellation of such certificate if mutilated, the Corporation shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new certificate identical in all respects to the original certificate. (d) No Voting Rights. Except as provided by applicable law and paragraph ---------------- 8(g) below, the Holders of the Preferred Shares shall have no voting rights with respect to the business, management or affairs of the Corporation; provided that the Corporation shall provide each Holder with prior notification of each meeting of stockholders (and copies of proxy statements and other information sent to such stockholders). (e) Remedies, Characterization, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Relief. The remedies provided to a Holder in these Articles of Amendment shall - ------ be cumulative and in addition 34 to all other remedies available to such Holder under these Articles of Amendment or under any Transaction Document (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), at law or in equity (including without limitation a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy and nothing contained herein shall limit such Holder's right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms of these Articles of Amendment. The Corporation agrees with each Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as specifically provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder hereof and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Corporation (or the performance thereof). The Corporation acknowledges that a material breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holders and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Corporation agrees, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, each Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. (f) Failure or Delay not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of a --------------------------- Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. (g) Protective Provisions. --------------------- So long as shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without first obtaining the approval of the Holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of outstanding shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock: (i) alter, change, modify or amend (x) the terms of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock in any way or (y) the terms of any other capital stock of the Corporation so as to affect adversely the Series B-2 Preferred Stock; (ii) create any new class or series of capital stock having a preference over or ranking pari passu with the Series B-2 Preferred Stock as to redemption or distribution of assets upon a Liquidation Event or any other liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation; (iii) increase the authorized number of shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock; (iv) re-issue any shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock which have been converted or redeemed in accordance with the terms hereof; (v) issue any Pari Passu Securities or Senior Securities; 35 (vi) redeem, or declare, pay or make any provision for any dividend or distribution with respect to, the Common Stock or any other capital stock of the Corporation ranking junior to the Series B-2 Preferred Stock as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation; or (vii) issue any Series B-2 Preferred Stock except pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement. In the event that the Holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock agrees to allow the Corporation to alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms hereof, then the Corporation will deliver notice of such approved change to the holders of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock that did not agree to such alteration or change (the "Dissenting Holders") and ------------------ the Dissenting Holders shall have the right for a period of thirty (30) days following such delivery to convert their Preferred Shares pursuant to the terms hereof as they existed prior to such alteration or change, or to continue to hold such Preferred Shares. No such change shall be effective to the extent that, by its terms, it applies to less than all of the Holders of Preferred Shares then outstanding.

In consideration of Marshall entering into the Exchange Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 1. DEFINITIONS. ----------- For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings specified: (a) "Business Day" shall have the meaning specified in the Exchange ------------ Agreement; (b) "Holder" means any person owning or having the right to acquire, ------ through conversion of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock, Registrable Securities, including initially Marshall and thereafter any permitted assignee thereof; (c) "Effective Date" means the date on which the Registration Statement -------------- is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). ---------- (d) "Filing Deadline" means September 29, 2000; --------------- 39 (e) "Register", "registered" and "registration" refer to a -------- ---------- ------------ registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement or statements in compliance with the Securities Act and pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act ("Rule 415") or any successor rule -------- providing for the offering of securities on a continuous or delayed basis ("Registration Statement"), and the declaration or ordering of ---------------------- effectiveness of the Registration Statement by the Commission; (f) "Registration Deadline" means December 31, 2000; and --------------------- (g) "Registrable Securities" means the Conversion Shares and any other ---------------------- shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of the Series B- 2 Articles of Amendment, and any shares of capital stock issued or issuable from time to time (with any adjustments) in replacement of, in exchange for or otherwise in respect of the Conversion Shares. 2. MANDATORY REGISTRATION. ---------------------- (a) On or before the Filing Deadline, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-3 as a "shelf" registration statement under Rule 415 covering the resale of the number of shares of Registrable Securities equal to the Reserved Amount (as defined in the Exchange Agreement). The Registration Statement shall state, to the extent permitted by Rule 416 under the Securities Act, that it also covers such indeterminate number of shares of Common Stock as may be required to effect conversion of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock in order to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar events. (b) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof, but in no event later than the Registration Deadline. The Company shall respond promptly to any and all comments made by the staff of the Commission on the Registration Statement (but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days following the Company's receipt thereof), and shall submit to the Commission, within three (3) Business Days after the Company learns that no review of the Registration Statement will be made by the staff of the Commission or that the staff of the Commission has no further comments on the Registration Statement, as the case may be, a request for acceleration of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement to a time and date not later than forty eight (48) hours after the submission of such request. The Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement and (ii) the date on which all of the remaining Registrable Securities (in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Holders) may be immediately sold to the public without registration and without regard to the amount of Registrable Securities which may be sold by a Holder thereof at a given time (the period beginning on the Registration Deadline and ending on the earlier of such dates being referred to herein as the "Registration Period"). ------------------- -40- (c) If the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or before April 15, 2001 (a "Default Event"), the Company shall ------------- pay to each Holder an amount equal to the lesser of (x) two percent (2%) per thirty calendar day period (prorated for any period of less than thirty calendar days) and (y) the highest rate permitted by applicable law, times the Stated ----- Value of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock initially issued to such Holder, accruing daily and compounded monthly, from the date on which a Default Event occurs until the date on which such Default Event has been cured and is no longer continuing, provided that such amount will not accrue or be payable to a Holder with respect to any day on which such Default Event was primarily caused by an act or failure to act by a Holder. The amounts paid or payable by the Company hereunder shall be in addition to any other remedies available to each Holder at law or in equity or pursuant to the terms hereof or the Exchange Agreement, or otherwise. Payments of such amounts pursuant hereto shall be made in immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days after the end of each period that gives rise to such obligation, provided that, if any such period extends for more than thirty (30) days, payments shall be made at the end of each thirty-day period. 3. PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION. ----------------------- If at any time prior to the expiration of the Registration Period, (i) the Company proposes to register shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such shares for cash (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock plan or employee stock award or a registration on Form S-4 under the Securities Act or any successor or similar form registering stock issuable upon a reclassification, a business combination involving an exchange of securities or an exchange offer for securities of the issuer or another entity, or a registration statement on Form S-3 covering the resale of securities issued in connection with a corporate acquisition) (a "Proposed Registration") and (ii) --------------------- a registration statement covering the sale of all of the Registrable Securities is not then effective and available for sales thereof by the Holders, the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such Proposed Registration. Each Holder shall have twenty (20) days from its receipt of such notice to deliver to the Company a written request specifying the amount of Registrable Securities that such Holder intends to sell and such Holder's intended method of distribution. Upon receipt of such request, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of such Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to postpone or - -------- ------- withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 3 without obligation to the Holder. If, in connection with any underwritten public offering for the account of the Company or for shareholders of the Company that have contractual rights to require the Company to register shares of Common Stock, the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall impose a limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock which may be included in the Registration Statement because, in the judgment of such underwriter(s), marketing or other factors dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate such offering, then the Company shall be obligated to include in such Registration Statement only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which each Holder has requested inclusion hereunder as such underwriter(s) shall permit. Any such -41- exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata among the Holders seeking to include Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement, in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities sought to be included by such Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities, the holders of which are not entitled to inclusion of such securities in such Registration Statement or are not entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities; and provided, further, that, after giving effect to the immediately preceding proviso, any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata with holders of other securities having the right to include such securities in the Registration Statement. 4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. -------------------------- In addition to performing its obligations hereunder, including without limitation those pursuant to paragraphs 2(a) and 2(b) above, the Company shall: (a) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act or to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement during the Registration Period, or as may be reasonably requested within a reasonable time prior to any proposed sale by a Holder in order to incorporate information concerning such Holder or such Holder's intended method of distribution; (b) secure the listing of all Registrable Securities on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market prior to the date on which the Registration Statement relating to such Registrable Securities becomes effective; (c) furnish to each Holder such number of copies of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, including a preliminary prospectus, if any, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as such Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of such Holder's Registrable Securities; (d) use all commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as shall be reasonably requested from time to time by a Holder, and do any and all other acts or things which may be necessary or advisable to enable such Holder to consummate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction; (e) in the event of an underwritten public offering of the Registrable Securities, enter into (together with all Holders proposing to distribute Registrable Securities through such underwriting) and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form reasonably acceptable to the Company, with the managing underwriter of such offering; -42- (f) notify each Holder immediately upon the occurrence of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, contains an untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, and as promptly as practicable, prepare, file and furnish to each Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or an amendment to such prospectus as may be necessary so that such prospectus does not contain an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing; (g) use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal thereof at the earliest possible time and to notify each Holder of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof; (h) furnish to each Holder, on the date that such Registration Statement becomes effective, (x) a letter, dated such date, of outside counsel representing the Company (and reasonably acceptable to such Holder) addressed to such Holder, confirming the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and, to the knowledge of such counsel, the absence of any stop order, and (y) in the case of an underwriting, (A) an opinion addressed to the underwriters, dated such date, of such outside counsel, in such form and substance as is required to be given to such underwriters, and (B) a letter addressed to such underwriters, dated such date, from the Company's independent certified public accountants, in such form and substance as is required to be given by the Company's independent certified public accountants to such underwriters; (i) provide each Holder and its representatives the opportunity to conduct a reasonable inquiry of the Company's financial and other records during normal business hours and make available its officers, directors and employees for questions regarding information which such Holder may reasonably request in order to fulfill any due diligence obligation on its part; and (j) permit counsel retained for such purpose by each Holder to review the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto, and any comments made by the staff of the Commission and the Company's responses thereto, within a reasonable period of time prior to the filing thereof with the Commission (or, in the case of comments made by the staff of the Commission, within a reasonable period of time following the receipt thereof by the Company) and amend such materials in accordance with the comments of such counsel. 5. OBLIGATIONS OF EACH HOLDER. -------------------------- In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, each Holder shall: -43- (a) furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding itself and the intended method of disposition of Registrable Securities as the Company shall reasonably request in order to effect the registration thereof; (b) upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in paragraphs 4(f) or 4(g), immediately discontinue any sale or other disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement until the filing of an amendment or supplement as described in paragraph 4(f) or withdrawal of the stop order referred to in paragraph 4(g); (c) in the event of an underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities, enter into a customary and reasonable underwriting agreement and execute such other documents as the managing underwriter for such offering may reasonably request; (d) to the extent required by applicable law, deliver a prospectus to the purchaser of Registrable Securities; (e) notify the Company when it has sold all of the Registrable Securities theretofore held by it; and (f) promptly notify the Company in the event that any information supplied by such Holder in writing for inclusion in the Registration Statement or related prospectus is untrue or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make such information not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. 6. INDEMNIFICATION. --------------- In the event that any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement: (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, employees and agents of such Holder, and each person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 ---- Act"), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or reasonable out-of- - --- pocket expenses (whether joint or several) (collectively, including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same, "Losses"), insofar as any such Losses arise out of or are based upon (i) ------ any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus, if any, or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, or (ii) the 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 under which they were made, not misleading. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 6(c) below, the Company will -44- reimburse such Holder, and each such officer, director, employee, agent or controlling person for any legal or other expenses as reasonably incurred by any such entity or person in connection with investigating or defending any Loss; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Loss if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be obligated to indemnify any person for any Loss to the extent that such Loss arises out of or is based upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such person expressly for use in such Registration Statement; and provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to indemnify any person to the extent that any Loss results from such person selling Registrable Securities (i) to a person to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such shares, a copy of the prospectus, as most recently amended or supplemented, if the Company has previously furnished or made available copies thereof or (ii) during any period following written notice by the Company to such Holder of an event described in paragraph 4(f) or 4(g). (b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder, acting severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives of the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the 1934 Act, against any Losses to the extent (and only to the extent) that any such Losses arise out of or are based upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in such Registration Statement; and such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses as reasonably incurred by the Company and any such officer, director, employee, agent, representative, or controlling person, in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Loss if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that, in no event shall any indemnity under this paragraph 6(b) exceed the net proceeds resulting from the sale of the Registrable Securities sold by such Holder under the Registration Statement. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the reasonably incurred fees and expenses of one such counsel to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential conflicting interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, to the extent prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 6 with respect to such action, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that -45- it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 6 or with respect to any other action unless the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced as a result of not receiving such notice. (d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph 6(a) or 6(b) is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company and each Holder agree, severally and not jointly, to contribute to the aggregate Losses to which the Company or such Holder may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and such Holder in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses; provided, however, that in no case shall such Holder be responsible for any amount in excess of the proceeds resulting from the sale of the Registrable Securities sold by it under the Registration Statement. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether any alleged untrue statement or omission relates to information provided by the Company or by such Holder. The Company and each Holder agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph 6(d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to indemnification or contribution from any person who is not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6, each person who controls a Holder within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each officer, director, employee or agent of such Holder shall have the same rights to contribution as such Holder, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each officer, director, employee or agent of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph 6(d). (e) The obligations of the Company and each Holder under this Section 6 shall survive the conversion of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock in full, the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement under this Agreement, or otherwise. 7. REPORTS. ------- With a view to making available to each Holder the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act ("Rule 144") and any other similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit such Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees to: (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the 1934 Act; and -46- (c) furnish to such Holder, so long as such Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon written request (i) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, and the 1934 Act, (ii) to the extent not publicly available through the Commission's EDGAR database, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing such Holder of any rule or regulation of the Commission which permits the selling of any such securities without registration. 8.
