NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED; IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SeaChange International, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Company believes that the unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments), necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods indicated. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended July 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full fiscal year or any other future periods. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 1999, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for such fiscal year. 2. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenues from sales of systems are recognized upon shipment provided title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, there is evidence of an arrangement, fees are fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivable is probable. Installation and training revenue is deferred and recognized as these services are performed. Revenue from technical support and maintenance contracts is deferred and recognized ratably over the period of the related agreements, generally twelve months. Customers are billed for installation, training and maintenance at the time of the product sale. Revenue from content fees, primarily movies, is recognized in the period earned based on noncancelable agreements. 3. EARNINGS PER SHARE For the one month ended January 31, 2000 and April 30, 2000, common shares of 1,674,000 and 1,578,000, respectively, issuable upon the exercise of stock options, are antidilutive because the Company recorded a net loss for the period, and therefore, have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation. Below is a summary of the shares used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated:

6. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, collectively referred to as derivatives, and for hedging activities. The Company will adopt SFAS 133 as required by SFAS 137, "Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133," in fiscal year 2002. To date the Company has not utilized derivative instruments or hedging activities and, therefore, the adoption of SFAS 133 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. 7 SEACHANGE INTERNATIONAL, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited; in thousands, except share and per share data In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB 101 summarizes the SEC's view in applying generally accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. The application of the guidance in SAB 101 will be required in the Company's fourth quarter of its current fiscal year. The effects of applying this guidance, if any, will be reported as a cumulative effect adjustment resulting in a change in accounting principle. The Company's evaluation of SAB 101 is not yet complete. 7. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has three reportable segments: broadband systems, broadcast systems and services. The broadband systems segment provides products to digitally manage, store and distribute digital video for television operators and telecommunications companies. The broadcast systems segment provides products for the storage, archival, on-air playback of advertising and other video programming for the broadcast television industry. The service segment provides installation, training, product maintenance and technical support for all of the above systems and content which is distributed by the broadband product segment. The Company does not measure the assets allocated to the segments. The Company measures results of the segments based on the respective gross profits. There were no inter-segment sales or transfers. Long-lived assets are principally located in the United States. The Company has changed its reportable segments from the prior quarter and prior year-end and has reclassed prior period amounts to conform to these current segments. The following summarizes the revenues and cost of revenues by reportable segment:

For the three and six months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999 certain customers accounted for more than 10% of the company's revenue. Individual customers accounted for 17% and 10% of revenues in the three months ended July 31, 2000; 27% and 8 SEACHANGE INTERNATIONAL, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited; in thousands, except share and per share data 10% of revenues in the three months ended June 30, 1999; 13%, 12%, 12% and 11% in the six months ended July 31, 2000; and 22% and 13% in the six months ended June 30, 1999. 8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS One of the Company's customers is subject to a lawsuit in Civil Action No. 00-CV-195, pending in the federal courts in the Eastern District of Virginia, whereby a third party has made a claim of patent infringement against the Company's customer, which claim is believed to relate at least in part to such customer's use of the Company's products. There are no direct allegations pending against the Company in connection with this matter. On Friday, May 19, 2000 the Company filed a motion seeking to intervene in the action between its customer and the third party, and to transfer the case to the District Court of Massachusetts. On June 23, 2000, the Court granted the Company's intervention motion and deferred ruling on the issue of transfer until at least the end of September 2000. Also on June 23, 2000, the Company filed its Intervenor Complaint in the action seeking, among other things, a declaratory judgment of non-infringement, invalidity and unenforceability regarding U.S. Patents Nos. 4,814,883 and 5,200,825. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify its customer for claims brought against the customer that are related to the customer's use of the Company's products. On June 13, 2000, the Company filed a lawsuit against one of its competitors, nCube Corp., for patent infringement. The lawsuit alleges that nCube, with the advent of its MediaCube-4 video server, infringes the Company's patented and highly strategic MediaCluster technology. The lawsuit is scheduled to go to trial in late September 2000. On June 14, 1999, the Company filed a complaint against an investment banker, an investment bank and a competitor that alleges that the competitor conspired with the investment bankers to injure the business and reputation of the Company in the marketplace and to drive down the price of the Company's stock to benefit them. In addition, the complaint alleges that the competitor, through its employees, provided the investment bankers with inside information to further these efforts. On June 14, 2000, one of the defendants in this suit filed a counterclaim under seal against the Company seeking unspecified damages. The Company cannot be certain of the outcome of the foregoing litigation, but does plan to oppose the allegations against it and assert its claims against other parties vigorously. 9. FISCAL YEAR CHANGE In April 2000, the Company's Board of Directors voted to change the Company's fiscal accounting year from December 31 to January 31, such that the Company's current fiscal year began on February 1, 2000 and will end on January 31, 2001. The following unaudited condensed consolidated financial data summarizes the operating results and selected balance sheet information of the Company for the comparable three and six month periods ended July 31, 1999 and the one month transition periods ended January 31, 1999 and April 30, 1999 (in thousands, except per share data): 9 SEACHANGE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS Any statements contained in this Form 10-Q that do not describe historical facts, including without limitation statements concerning expected revenues, earnings, product introductions and general market conditions, may constitute forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any such forward-looking statements contained herein are based on current expectations, but are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations. The factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially from current expectations include the following: the Company's ability to integrate the operations of acquired subsidiaries; fluctuations in demand for the Company's products and services; the Company's ability to manage its growth; the Company's ability to develop, market and introduce new and enhanced products and services on a timely basis; the rapid technological change which characterizes the Company's markets; the Company's significant concentration of customers; the Company's dependence on certain sole source suppliers and third-party manufacturers; the risks associated with international sales as the Company expands its markets; and the ability of the Company to compete successfully in the future. Further information on factors that could cause actual results to differ from those anticipated is detailed in various filings made by the Company from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to, those appearing under the caption "Certain Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of those factors. OVERVIEW The Company develops, markets, licenses and sells broadband and broadcast systems and related services and movie content to television operators, telecommunications companies and broadcast television companies. Revenues from systems sales are recognized upon shipment provided title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, there is evidence of an arrangement, fees are fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivables is probable. Installation and training revenue is deferred and recognized as these services are performed. Revenue from technical support and maintenance contracts is deferred and recognized ratably over the period of the related agreements, generally twelve months. Customers are billed for installation, training and maintenance at the time of the product sale. Revenue from content fees, primarily movies, is recognized in the period earned based on noncancelable agreements. The Company has experienced fluctuations in the number of orders being placed from quarter to quarter. The Company believes this is principally attributable to the buying patterns and budgeting cycles of television operators and broadcast companies, the primary buyers of digital advertising insertion systems and broadcast systems, respectively. The Company expects that there will continue to be fluctuations in the number and value of orders received and that at least in the near future, the Company's revenue and results of operations will reflect these fluctuations. The Company's results are significantly influenced by a number of factors, including the Company's pricing, the costs of materials used in the Company's products and the expansion of the Company's operations. The Company prices its products and services based upon its costs as well as in consideration of the prices of competitive products and services in the marketplace. The costs of the Company's products primarily consist of the costs of components and subassemblies that have generally declined over time. As a result of the growth of the Company's business, operating expenses of the Company have increased in the areas of research and development, selling and marketing, customer service and support and administration. In April 2000, the Company's Board of Directors voted to change the Company's fiscal accounting year from December 31 to January 31, such that the Company's current fiscal year began on February 1, 2000 and will end on January 31, 2001. The Company has not recast the comparable prior year periods as there are no seasonal or other factors that affect the comparability of the periods presented. Revenues, including both systems and services revenues, for the one month period ended January 31, 2000 were $1.7 million compared to $1.9 million for the one month period will end January 31, 1999. In the one month period ended January 31, 2000, the Company's gross margin was a negative $368,000 compared to a gross margin of $189,000 in the one month period ended January 31, 1999. The net loss for the one month period ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 were $2.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively. For the month ended January 31, 2000, the Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased $8.6 million primarily due to a net loss for the month of $2.5 million, an increase in inventory of $3.0 million as a result of future shipment requirements, a decrease of $4.6 million in accounts payable due to the timing of vendor payments. These items that used cash from operations were offset in part by a decrease in accounts receivable of $1.1 million and an increase in deferred revenue of $1.9 million. Revenues, including both systems and service revenues, for the one month period ended April 30, 2000 were $2.1 million compared to $2.4 million for the one month period ended April 30, 1999. In the one month period ended April 30, 2000, the Company's gross margin was a negative $149,000 compared to a gross margin of $488,000 in the one month ended April 30, 1999. The net loss for the one month period ended April 30, 2000 and 1999 were $2.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively. For the month ended April 30, 2000, the Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased $6.1 million primarily due to a net loss for the month of $2.5 million, an increase in inventory of $2.4 million as a result of future shipment requirements, a decrease of $4.0 million in accounts payable due to timing of vendor payments. These items that used cash from operations were offset in part by a decrease in accounts receivable of $2.4 million. THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 Revenues Systems. The Company's systems revenues consist of sales of its digital advertising and interactive television systems (collectively "broadband systems") and broadcast systems. Systems revenues increased 15% from $17.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $20.1 million in the three months ended July 31, 2000. This increase in systems revenues resulted from an increase of $800,000 and $1.8 million in broadband and broadcast systems revenues, respectively. 11 For the three-month periods ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, certain customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total revenues. Single customers accounted for 17% and 10% of total revenues in three months ended July 31, 2000 and 27% and 10% of total revenues in the three months ended June 30, 1999. The Company believes that revenues from current and future large customers will continue to represent a significant proportion of total revenues. International sales accounted for approximately 15% and 27% of total revenues in the three-month periods ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively. The Company expects that international sales will continue to fluctuate quarter to quarter and will remain a significant portion of the Company's business in the future. As of July 31, 2000, substantially all sales of the Company's products were made in United States dollars. The Company does not expect to change this practice in the foreseeable future. Therefore, the Company has not experienced, nor does it expect to experience in the near term, any material impact from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on its results of operations or liquidity. If this practice changes in the future, the Company will reevaluate its foreign currency exchange rate risk. Services. The Company's services revenues consist of fees for installation, training, product maintenance, technical support services and movie content. The Company's services revenues increased over 30% to $5.5 million in three months ended July 31, 2000 from $4.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999. This increase in services revenues primarily resulted from the renewals of maintenance and support contracts, price increases on certain annual maintenance contracts, the impact of a growing installed base of systems and a higher level of technical support contracts. GROSS PROFIT Systems. Costs of systems revenues consist primarily of the cost of purchased components and subassemblies, labor and overhead relating to the final assembly and testing of complete systems and related expenses. Costs of systems revenues increased 8% from $10.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $10.9 million in the three months ended July 31, 2000. In the three months ended July 31, 2000, the increase in costs of systems revenues reflects higher systems revenue. Systems gross profit as a percentage of systems revenues was 46% and 42% in the three months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively. The increase in systems gross profit in the three month ended July 31, 2000 was primarily due to lower material and other manufacturing costs as a percentage of systems revenue. The gross profits in the three months ended July 31, 2000 were impacted by an increase of approximately $92,000 in the Company's inventory valuation allowance. The Company evaluates inventory levels and expected usage on a periodic basis and provides a valuation allowance for estimated inactive, obsolete and surplus inventory. Services. Costs of services revenues consist primarily of labor, materials and overhead relating to the installation, training, product maintenance and technical support services provided by the Company and costs associated with providing movie content. Costs of services revenues increased 23% from $3.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $4.5 million in the three months ended July 31, 2000, primarily as a result of increased revenues and the costs associated with the Company hiring and training additional service personnel to provide worldwide support for the growing installed base of broadband and broadcast systems and costs associated with providing movie content. Services gross profit as a percentage of services revenue was 19% in the three months ended July 31, 2000 and 14% in the three months ended June 30, 1999. Improvements in the services gross profit in the three months ended July 31, 2000 reflect the increase in the installed base of systems under service contracts, higher volume of technical support contracts and price increases on certain annual maintenance contracts. The Company expects that it will continue to experience fluctuations in gross profit as a percentage of services revenue as a result of the timing of revenues from product and maintenance support and other services to support the growing installed base of systems and the timing of costs associated with the Company's ongoing investment required to build a service organization to support the installed base of systems and new products. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation of development personnel, depreciation of equipment and an allocation of related facilities expenses. Research and development expenses increased 17% from $4.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $5.0 million in the three months ended July 31, 2000. The increase in the dollar amount in the three months ended July 31, 2000 was primarily attributable to the hiring and contracting of additional development personnel which reflects the Company's continuing investment in the development of new technology. All internal software development costs to date have been expensed by the Company. The Company expects that research and development expenses will continue to increase in dollar amount as the Company continues to focus on the development of new technology and support of new and existing products. SELLING AND MARKETING. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation expenses, including sales commissions, travel expenses and certain promotional expenses. Selling and marketing expenses increased 29% to $2.6 million 12 in the three months ended July 31, 2000 from $2.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 1999. The increase was primarily due to the hiring of additional sales personnel for the Company's product segments and higher marketing costs. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation of executive, finance, human resource and administrative personnel, legal and accounting services and an allocation of related facilities expenses. General and administrative expenses increased 32% from $1.4 million in the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 to $1.8 million in the three-month period ended July 31, 2000. This increase is primarily due to increased legal expenses associated with various litigation matters. INTEREST INCOME, NET. Interest income/(expense), net was approximately ($1,000) and $8,000 in the three months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively. The decrease in interest income, net in the three months ended July 31, 2000 primarily resulted from interest expense on borrowings. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The Company's effective tax provision rate was 32% in the three months ended July 31, 2000. The Company's effective tax benefit rate was 31.5% in the three months ended June 30, 1999 due to the utilization of operating tax loss carryforwards associated with the acquisition of Digital Video Arts, Ltd. in 1999 which was accounted for as a pooling of interests. The Company had net deferred tax assets of $2,243,000 at July 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999. The Company has made the determination it is more likely than not that it will realize the benefits of the net deferred tax assets. SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 REVENUES Systems. Systems revenues increased 7% from $34.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $36.9 million in the six months ended July 31, 2000. This increased systems revenues resulted primarily from increased broadcast and broadband revenue of $1.9 million and $0.6 million, respectively. For the six months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, certain customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total revenues. Individual customers accounted for 13%, 12%, 12% and 11% of revenues for the six months ended July 31, 2000 and 22% and 13% of revenues in the six months ended June 30, 1999. The Company believes that revenues from current and future large customers will continue to represent a significant portion of total revenues. International sales accounted for approximately 14% and 22% of total revenues for the six months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively. The Company expects that international sales will continue to fluctuate quarter to quarter and will remain a significant portion of revenues of the Company in the future. As of July 31, 2000, substantially all sales of the Company's products were made in United States dollars. The Company does not expect any material change to this practice in the foreseeable future. Therefore, the Company has not experienced, nor does it expect to experience in the near term, any material impact from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on its results of operations or liquidity. If this practice changes in the future, the Company will reevaluate its foreign currency exchange rate risk. Services. The Company's services revenues increased over 35% from approximately $8.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $11.0 million in the six months ended July 31, 2000. These increases in services revenues resulted primarily from increased systems revenues, renewals of maintenance and support contracts, the impact of a growing installed base of systems and a higher level of technical support contracts. GROSS PROFIT Systems. Costs of systems revenues increased 1% from $20.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $20.2 million in the six months ended July 31, 2000. For the six months ended July 31, 2000, the increase in cost of systems revenues primarily reflects increased material and manufacturing labor and overhead costs incurred to support increases in systems revenue and changes in the product mix, including the introduction of the broadcast products. Systems gross profit as a percentage of systems revenues was 45% and 42% in the six months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively. The increase in systems gross profit in 2000 was primarily due to higher systems revenue and lower material and manufacturing costs as a percentage of systems revenues. The gross profits in the six months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999 were impacted by increases of approximately $92,000 and $288,000, respectively, in the Company's inventory valuation allowance. The Company evaluates inventory levels and expected usage on a periodic basis and provides a valuation allowance for estimated inactive, obsolete and surplus inventory. 13 Services. Costs of services revenues increased nearly 23% from approximately $7.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $8.7 million in the six months ended July 31, 2000, primarily as a result of the costs associated with the Company hiring and training additional service personnel to provide worldwide support for the growing installed base of broadband and broadcast systems and costs associated with providing movie content. Services gross profit as a percentage of services revenue increased to 21% in the six months ended July 31, 2000 compared to a gross profit margin of 13% in the six months ended June 30, 1999. The Company expects that it will continue to experience fluctuations in gross profit as a percentage of services revenue as a result of the timing of revenues from product and maintenance support and other services to support the growing installed base of systems and the timing of costs associated with the Company's ongoing investment required to build a service organization to support the installed base of systems and new products. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses increased 11% from approximately $8.4 million, or 20% of total revenues in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $9.4 million, or 20% of total revenues in the six months ended July 31, 2000. The increase in the dollar amount was primarily attributable to the hiring and contracting of additional development personnel which reflects the Company's continuing investment in the development of new technology. The Company expects that research and development expenses will continue to increase in dollar amount as the Company continues to focus on the development of new technology and support of new and existing products. SELLING AND MARKETING. Selling and marketing expenses increased 27% from $4.0 million, or 9% of total revenues, in the six months ended June 30, 1999, to $5.1 million or 11% of total revenues in the six months ended July 31, 2000, respectively. This increase is primarily due to the hiring of additional sales personnel for the Company's broadcast and interactive television products and higher marketing expenses. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses increased 20% from $2.7 million, or 6% of total revenues in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $3.3 million, or 7% of total revenues in the six months ended July 31, 2000. This increase is primarily due to increased legal expenses associated with various litigation matters. INTEREST INCOME, NET. Interest income, net, was approximately $24,000 and $19,000 in the six months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively. The increase in 2000 in interest income, net, primarily resulted from interest earned on invested balances. PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES. The Company's effective tax provision rate was 32% in the six months ended July 31, 2000. The Company's effective tax benefit rate was 20.6% in the six months ended June 30, 1999 due to the utilization of operating tax loss carryforwards associated with the acquisition of Digital Video Arts, Ltd. in 1999 which was accounted for as a pooling of interests. The Company had net deferred tax assets of $2,243,000 at July 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999. The Company has made the determination it is more likely than not that it will realize the benefits of the net deferred tax assets. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has financed its operations and capital expenditures primarily with the proceeds of the Company's common stock, borrowings and cash flows generated from operations. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities increased $9.2 million from $2.7 million at January 31, 2000 to $11.9 million at July 31, 2000. Working capital increased from approximately $19.8 million at January 31, 2000 to approximately $31.3 million at July 31, 2000. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $226,000 and $7.0 million for the six months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively. The net cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended July 31, 2000 was the result of the net income adjusted for non- cash expenses including depreciation and amortization of $2.3 million and the changes in certain assets and liabilities. The significant net changes in assets and liabilities that provided cash in operations included an increase in accounts payable of $3.3 million as a result of timing of vendor payments and an increase in customer deposits of $2.4 million. These items that provided cash from operations were offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $3.9 million as a result of higher revenues, an increase in inventories of $2.5 million due to expected future shipments and an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $2.0 million. Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $4.8 million and $800,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively. Investment activity consisted primarily of capital expenditures related to construction to expand the current manufacturing facility and the acquisition of computer equipment, office furniture, and other capital equipment required to support the expansion and growth of the business. Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $13.8 million for the six months ended July 31, 2000. Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $360,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. In the six 14 months ended July 31, 2000, the cash provided by financing included $11.3 million received in connection with the issuance of common stock ($10 million of which was issued to Microsoft Corporation) and $3.2 million in borrowings under the equipment line of credit. During the same period, cash used in financing activities included approximately $750,000 in principal payments under the Company's equipment line of credit and capital lease obligations. In July 2000, the Company renewed its revolving line of credit and equipment line of credit with a bank. The revolving line of credit which expired in March 2000 was extended until March 2001 and borrowings under the facility increased to $7.5 million. The equipment line of credit which also expired in March 2000 was extended to provide the Company additional equipment financing of $4.0 million through March 2001. In addition, the Company entered into a $3 million line of credit facility with the Export-Import Bank of the United States which allows the Company to borrow money based upon eligible foreign customer account balances. This facility also expires in March 2001. Borrowings under all the lines of credit are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. Loans made under the revolving line of credit would generally bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR rate plus 2% (9.05% at July 31, 2000). Loans under the EXIM line of credit bear interest as a rate per annum equal to the Prime rate (9.5% at July 31, 2000). Loans made under the equipment line of credit bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the bank's base rate plus 1.0% (10.5% at July 31, 2000). The loan agreement relating to the lines of credit requires that the Company provide the bank with certain periodic financial reports and comply with certain financial ratios including the maintenance of total liabilities, excluding deferred revenue, to net worth of at least .80 to 1.0. At July 31, 2000 the Company was in compliance with all covenants. As of July 31, 2000, there were no borrowings against either line of credit and borrowings outstanding under the equipment line of credit were $4.7 million. The Company believes that existing funds together with available borrowings under the lines of credit and equipment line facility are adequate to satisfy its working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future. The Company had no material capital expenditure commitments as of July 31, 2000. Effects of Inflation Management believes that financial results have not been significantly impacted by inflation and price changes. Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, collectively referred to as derivatives, and for hedging activities. The Company will adopt SFAS 133 as required by SFAS 137, "Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133," in fiscal year 2002. To date the Company has not utilized derivative instruments or hedging activities and, therefore, the adoption of SFAS 133 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB 101 summarizes the SEC's view in applying generally accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. The application of the guidance in SAB 101 will be required in the Company's fourth quarter of its current fiscal year. The effects of applying this guidance, if any, will be reported as a cumulative effect adjustment resulting in a change in accounting principle. The Company's evaluation of SAB 101 is not yet complete. 15 ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk The Company faces exposure to financial market risks, including adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial results. The Company's primary exposure has been related to local currency revenue and operating expenses in Europe and Asia. Historically, the Company has not hedged specific currency exposures as gains and losses on foreign currency transactions have not been material to date. At July 31, 2000, the Company had $4,206,000 outstanding related to variable rate U.S. dollar denominated debt. The carrying value of these short-term borrowings approximates fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments. Assuming a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the interest rate, interest expense on these short-term borrowings would increase by $44,000. The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheet of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, and trade payables approximates fair value at July 31, 2000 due to the short maturities of these instruments. The Company maintains investment portfolio holdings of various issuers, types, and maturities. The Company's cash and marketable securities include cash equivalents, which the Company considers investments to be purchased with original maturities of three months or less given the short maturities and investment grade quality of the portfolio holdings at July 31, 2000, a sharp rise in interest rates should not have a material adverse impact on the fair value of the Company's investment portfolio. As a result, the Company does not currently hedge these interest rate exposures. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings One of the Company's customers is subject to a lawsuit in Civil Action No. 00- CV-195, pending in the federal courts in the Eastern District of Virginia, whereby a third party has made a claim of patent infringement against the Company's customer, which claim is believed to relate at least in part to such customer's use of the Company's products. There are no direct allegations pending against the Company in connection with this matter. On Friday, May 19, 2000 the Company filed a motion seeking to intervene in the action between its customer and the third party, and to transfer the case to the District Court of Massachusetts. On June 23, 2000, the Court granted the Company's intervention motion and deferred ruling on the issue of transfer until at least the end of September 2000. Also on June 23, 2000, the Company filed its Intervenor Complaint in the action seeking, among other things, a declaratory judgment of non-infringement, invalidity and unenforceability regarding U.S. Patents Nos. 4,814,883 and 5,200,825. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify its customer for claims brought against the customer that are related to the customer's use of the Company's products. On June 13, 2000, the Company filed a lawsuit against one of its competitors, nCube Corp., for patent infringement. The lawsuit alleges that nCube, with the advent of its MediaCube-4 video server, infringes the Company's patented and highly strategic MediaCluster technology. The lawsuit is scheduled to go to trial in late September 2000. On June 14, 1999, the Company filed a complaint against an investment banker, an investment bank and a competitor that alleges that the competitor conspired with the investment bankers to injure the business and reputation of the Company in the marketplace and to drive down the price of the Company's stock to benefit them. In addition, the complaint alleges that the competitor, through its employees, provided the investment bankers with inside information to further these efforts. On June 14, 2000, one of the defendants in this suit filed a counterclaim under seal against the Company seeking unspecified damages.

WHEREAS, the Purchaser intends to purchase shares of Common Stock, par value, $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") of the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of May 23, 200O (the "Purchase Agreement"); and WHEREAS, the Purchase Agreement requires that the Company enter into this Agreement with the Purchaser; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows: 1. Demand Registration. If, after the date of this Agreement the Purchaser ------------------- shall request the Company in writing to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), any or all of the shares of the Common Stock acquired by Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (the shares of such Common Stock so registrable are referred to as the "Subject Stock"), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Subject Stock to be registered as soon as reasonably practicable so as to permit the sale thereof, and in connection therewith shall prepare and file a Form S-3 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act to effect such registration; provided, however, such request shall (i) express the intention of the Purchaser to offer or cause the offering of the Subject Stock for distribution, (ii) describe the nature or method of the proposed offer and sale thereof, and (iii) contain the undertaking of the Purchaser to provide all such information and materials and take all such action as may be required in order to permit the Company to comply with all applicable requirements of the SEC and to obtain any desired acceleration of the effective date of such registration statement. In the event that Form S-3 is not then available, the registration statement shall be filed on the successor to Form S- 3 or if there is no clear successor form, or if the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3 or a successor form, then the registration statement shall be filed using such form as may be available for the proposed distribution by the Purchaser with which it is least burdensome for the Company to comply. The Company agrees not to grant to any other person registration rights pursuant to which such person would have the right to register shares of Common Stock on a registration statement filed by the Company pursuant to the exercise of Purchaser's rights under this Agreement. Subject to the limitations in Section 2 and the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12 Purchaser may make no more than two such requests, provided that a second request shall not be made prior to six months after the termination of the distribution made pursuant to the first registration statement and neither request shall be for less than 25% of the shares acquired by Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. 2. Obligations of the Company. -------------------------- (a) Whenever the Company is required by the provisions of this Agreement to use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of any Subject Stock under the Securities Act, the Company shall (i) prepare and, as soon as reasonably practicable, file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to the shares of Subject Stock, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and to remain effective until the earlier of (A) the sale of the shares of Subject Stock so registered, (B) the -1- withdrawal at the request of Purchaser of such shares from such registration statement or (C) the ability of the Purchaser to sell within a single three month period pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act all of the shares of Common Stock acquired by Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and then held by Purchaser; (ii) subject to paragraph (b) below, prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be reasonably necessary to make and to keep such registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all securities proposed to be registered pursuant to such registration statement until the earlier of (A), (B) or (C) in (i) above; and (iii) take all such other action reasonably necessary to permit the shares of Subject Stock held by the Purchaser to be registered and disposed of in accordance with the method of disposition described herein. (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, by delivery of written notice to the Purchaser (a "Suspension Notice"), stating which one or more of the following limitations shall apply to the Purchaser, the Company may (1) postpone effecting a registration under this Agreement or (2) require the Purchaser to refrain from disposing of Subject Stock under the registration, in each case for a reasonable time specified in the notice but not exceeding an aggregate of 90 days in any one year period (which period may not be extended or renewed). The Company may postpone effecting a registration or require the Purchaser to refrain from disposing of Subject Stock under the registration, if (1) the Company in good faith determines that such registration or disposition would materially impede, delay or interfere with any material financing, offer or sale of equity securities or debt securities of the Company, acquisition, disposition or other material transaction by the Company or any of its material subsidiaries, (2) an investment banking firm of recognized national standing shall advise the Company in writing that effecting the disposition by such person of Subject Stock would materially and adversely affect an offering of equity securities of the Company, by the Company for its own account the preparation of which had then been commenced, or (3) the Company in good faith determines that the Company is in possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which during the period specified in such notice the Company reasonably believes would not be in the best interests of the Company; provided that the Company may not take any action pursuant to this Section with respect to any of the limitations on dispositions specified in clause (2) for a period of time in excess of 90 days in any one year period. (c) In connection with any registration statement, the following provisions shall apply: (1) The Company shall furnish to the Purchaser, prior to the filing thereof with the SEC, a copy of any registration statement, and each amendment thereof and each amendment or supplement, if any, to the prospectus included therein and shall use its reasonable efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the SEC, such comments as the Purchaser and its counsel reasonably may propose. (2) The Company shall take such action as may be necessary so that: (i) any registration statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any amendment or supplement thereto (and each report or other document incorporated therein by reference) complies in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the respective rules and regulations thereunder, and (ii) any registration statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. -2- (3) (A) The Company shall advise the Purchaser and, if requested by the Purchaser, confirm such advice in writing: (i) when a registration statement and any amendment thereto has been filed with the SEC and when the registration statement or any post- effective amendment thereto has become effective; and (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the registration statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information. (B) The Company shall advise the Purchaser and, if requested by Purchaser, confirm such advice in writing of: (i) the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending effectiveness of the registration statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; and (ii) the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose. (4) The Company shall notify the Purchaser at any time when a Prospectus with respect to the Subject Stock is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, when the Company becomes aware of the happening of any event as a result of which the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as then in effect) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus or any preliminary Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; and, as promptly as practicable thereafter, but subject to Sections 2(b) and 4, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the SEC an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Subject Stock, such Prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As promptly as practicable after the issuance by the SEC of an order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, but subject to Sections 2(b) and 4, the Company shall use its best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest possible moment. (5) The Company shall furnish to the Purchaser with respect to the registration statement relating to the Subject Stock, without charge, such number of copies of such registration statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and all reports, other documents and exhibits (including those incorporated by reference) as the Purchaser shall reasonably request. (6) The Company shall furnish to the Purchaser such number of copies of any prospectus (including any preliminary prospectus and any amended or supplemented prospectus) relating to the Subject Stock as the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to effect the offering and sale of the shares of Subject Stock to be offered and sold, but only while the Company shall be required under the provisions hereof to cause the -3- registration statement to remain current, and the Company consents (except during the continuance of any event described in Sections 2(b) or 4 to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by the Purchaser in connection with the offering and sale of the Subject Stock covered by the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. (7) Prior to any offering of Subject Stock pursuant to any registration statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the shares of Subject Stock covered by such registration statement under the securities or blue sky laws of such states as the Purchaser shall reasonably request, maintain any such registration or qualification current until the earlier of (i) the sale of the shares of Subject Stock so registered, (ii) termination pursuant to Section 4 or (iii) the withdrawal of Subject Stock from the registration statement, and do any and all other acts and things either reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the Purchaser to consummate the public sale or other disposition of the shares of Subject Stock in domestic jurisdictions where the Purchaser desires to effect such sales or other disposition; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to take any action that would subject it to the general jurisdiction of the courts of any jurisdiction in which it is not so subject or to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where the Company is not so qualified. (8) In connection with any offering of shares of Subject Stock registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall (x) furnish the Purchaser, at the Company's expense, on a timely basis with certificates free of any restrictive legends representing ownership of the shares of Subject Stock being sold in such denominations and registered in such names as the Purchaser shall request and (y) instruct the transfer agent and registrar of the Subject Stock to release any stop transfer orders with respect to the shares of Subject Stock. (9) The Company shall make generally available to its security holders or otherwise provide in accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act as soon as reasonably practicable after the effective date of the registration statement an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 1l(a) of the Securities Act. (10) The Company shall, if requested, promptly include or incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a registration statement, such information as the Purchaser or any underwriters reasonably request to be included therein in accordance with Section 3(b) and to which the Company does not reasonably object and shall make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after they are notified of the matters to be included or incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment. (11) [Intentionally Omitted] (12) The Company will use its best efforts to cause the Subject Stock to be admitted for quotation on the Nasdaq National Market or other stock exchange or trading system on which the Common Stock primarily trades on or prior to the effective date of any registration statement hereunder. (13) Any obligation of the Company under this Agreement, including any obligation to use its "best efforts," "reasonable best efforts" or take such actions as are reasonably required, shall not preclude the Company from taking any action or omitting -4- to take any action (other than omitting to file necessary amendments, post- effective amendments and supplements if a Suspension Notice or Termination Notice is not then in effect pursuant to Section 2(b) or 4, respectively) that would result in the Company issuing a Suspension Notice or Termination Notice pursuant to Section 2(b) or 4, respectively. (d) With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may at any time permit the sale of the Subject Stock to the public without registration, the Company agrees to: (1) make all filings with the SEC required by Rule 144(c) (or any similar provision then in force) under the Securities Act to permit the sale of the Subject Stock by any holder thereof to satisfy the conditions of Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in force). (2) during the term of this Agreement, to furnish to the Purchaser upon request (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Company as the Purchaser may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing the Purchaser to sell any such securities without registration. 3. Obligations of the Purchaser. ---------------------------- (a) The Purchaser shall, (i) offer to sell or otherwise distribute the Subject Stock in reliance upon a registration contemplated by this Agreement only after a registration statement shall have been filed with the SEC, (ii) sell or otherwise distribute the Subject Stock in reliance upon such registration only if a registration statement is then effective under the Securities Act, (iii) not sell or otherwise distribute any of the Subject Stock during any period specified in a Suspension Notice delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2(b) or after receiving a Termination Notice pursuant to Section 4 (until the Purchaser shall have received written notice from the Company that the registration is again effective), (iv) distribute the Subject Stock only in accordance with the manner of distribution contemplated by the prospectus and (v) report to the Company distributions made by the Purchaser of shares of the Subject Stock pursuant to the prospectus. The Purchaser, by participating in a registration pursuant to this Agreement, acknowledges that the remedies of the Company at law for failure by the Purchaser to comply with the undertaking contained in this paragraph (a) would be inadequate and that the failure would not be adequately compensable in damages and would cause irreparable harm to the Company, and therefore agrees that undertakings made by the Purchaser in this paragraph (a) may be specifically enforced. (b) The Purchaser shall furnish to the Company in writing promptly upon the request of the Company the information regarding the Purchaser, the contemplated distribution of the Subject Stock and the other information regarding the proposed distribution by the Purchaser that shall be required in connection with the proposed distribution by the applicable securities laws of the United States of America and the states thereof in which the Subject Stock are contemplated to be distributed. The information furnished by the Purchaser shall be certified by the Purchaser and shall be stated to be specifically for use in connection with the registration. (c) The obligations of the Company to maintain a registration statement are conditioned upon the Purchaser of the Subject Stock furnishing to the Company the information -5- in respect of the distribution of the Subject Stock that may be required under this Agreement to be furnished by the Purchaser to the Company. 4. Termination Provisions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to ---------------------- the contrary, if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company (which opinion shall be reasonably acceptable to counsel for the Purchaser), there shall have arisen any legal impediment to the offering of the Subject Stock pursuant to this Agreement or if any legal action or administrative proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened or any other claim shall have been made relating to the registration or the offer made by the related prospectus or against any of the parties involved in the offering, the Company may at any time upon written notice to the Purchaser (a "Termination Notice") terminate the effectiveness of the related Registration Statement; provided that, promptly after those matters -------- shall be resolved to the satisfaction of counsel for the Company, then, the Company shall cause the registration of the Subject Stock formerly covered by the Registration Statement that were removed from registration by the action of the Company. 5. Expenses. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses incurred in -------- connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1 and 2 hereof, including, without limitation, all SEC and blue sky registration and filing fees, printing expenses, transfer agents' and registrars' fees, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Company's outside counsel and independent accountants incurred in connection with the preparation, filing and amendment of any registration statement authorized by this Agreement (but excluding underwriters' and brokers' discounts and commissions). 6. Indemnification and Contribution. -------------------------------- (a) Indemnification by the Company. In the case of any offering ------------------------------ registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold the Purchaser and each person who controls any of the foregoing within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act harmless against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act or any other statute or common law or otherwise, and to reimburse them, from time to time upon request, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating any claims and defending any actions, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions shall arise out of or shall be based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or any amendment thereto) relating to the sale of such shares of Subject Stock, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have filed with the SEC any amendment thereof or supplement thereto), if used prior to the effective date of such registration statement or contained in the prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have filed with the SEC any amendment thereof or supplement thereto), if used within the period during which the Company shall be required to keep the registration statement to which such prospectus relates current pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein (if so used) a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a) shall not apply to such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions which shall arise out of or shall be based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any such omission or alleged omission, if such statement or omission shall have been (x) made in reliance upon and -6- in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Purchaser specifically for use in connection with the preparation of the registration statement or any preliminary prospectus or prospectus contained in the registration statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or (y) made in any preliminary prospectus, and the prospectus shall have corrected such statement or omission and a copy of such prospectus shall have been delivered to the Purchaser or any such underwriter prior to the time such prospectus is required to be delivered by the Purchaser or the underwriter under applicable law. (b) Indemnification by the Purchaser. In the case of each offering -------------------------------- registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees, in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 6(a) of this Agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, its directors and those officers of the Company who shall have signed any such registration statement with respect to any statement in or omission from such registration statement or any preliminary prospectus (as amended or as supplemented, if amended or supplemented as aforesaid) or prospectus contained in such registration statement (as amended or as supplemented, if amended or supplemented as aforesaid), if such statement or omission shall have been made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Purchaser specifically for use in connection with the preparation of such registration statement or any preliminary prospectus or prospectus contained in such registration statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto. (c) Notice of Claims. Each party indemnified under Section 6(a) or ---------------- Section 6(b) of this Agreement shall, promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any action against such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity may be sought, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, enclosing a copy of all papers served on such indemnified party. The omission of any indemnified party so to notify an indemnifying party of any such action shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability in respect of such action which it may have to such indemnified party on account of the indemnity agreement contained in Section 6(a) or Section 6(b) of this Agreement, unless the indemnifying party was prejudiced by such omission, and in no event shall relieve the indemnifying party from any other liability which it may have to such indemnified party. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, that if any indemnified party or parties reasonably determine that there may be legal defenses available to such indemnified party that are different from or in addition to those available to such indemnifying party or that representation of such indemnifying party and any indemnified party by the same counsel would present a conflict of interest, then such indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume such defense. If an indemnifying party is not entitled to assume the defense of such action as a result of the proviso to the preceding sentence, counsel for such indemnifying party shall be entitled to conduct the defense of such indemnifying party and counsel for the indemnified party shall be entitled to conduct the defense of such indemnified party or parties. If an indemnifying party assumes the defense of an action in accordance with and as permitted by the provisions of this paragraph, such indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under Section 6(a) or Section 6(b) of this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. In no event shall the indemnifying party be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to local counsel) separate from its own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any -7- one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action or proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with its written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action or proceeding, the indemnifying party shall indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified persons from and against any loss or liability by reason of the settlement or judgment. (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity provided for in this Section 6 is for any reason held to be unavailable to the indemnified parties although applicable in accordance with its terms, the Company and Purchaser shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity incurred by the Company and Purchaser, as incurred; provided that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person that was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. As between the Company, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, such parties shall contribute to such aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnity agreement in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or by or on behalf of the Purchaser, on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the relevant equitable considerations. For purposes of this Section 6(d), each person who controls the Company or the Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution as Purchaser or the Company, as the case may be. No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or claim settled without its written consent. (e) The Company may require, as a condition to entering into any underwriting agreement with respect to the registration of Subject Stock, that the Company shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from each underwriter named in any such underwriting agreement, severally and not jointly, to comply with the provisions of paragraphs (a) through (d) of this Section 6. (f) The obligations of the Company and Purchaser under this Section 6 shall survive the completion of any offering of Subject Stock in a registration statement. 7. Notices. Any notice or other communication given under this Agreement ------- shall be sufficient if in writing and sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to a party at its address set forth below (or at such other address as shall be designated for such purpose by such party in a written notice to the other party hereto): -8- (a) if to the Company, to it at: SeaChange International Inc. 124 Acton Street Maynard, MA 01754 Facsimile Number: (978) 897-9590 Attention: Mr. William L.

Counterparts This Agreement may be executed in two or more partially ------------ or fully executed counterparts and by facsimile signatures each of which shall be deemed an original and shall bind the signatory, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. The execution and delivery of a Signature Page - Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached to this Agreement by any party hereto who shall have been furnished the final form of this Agreement shall constitute the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such party. 14.
