EXHIBIT 10.20 FIRST AMENDMENT TO OFFER LETTER THIS FIRST AMENDMENT ("First Amendment") to the Offer Letter dated November 15, 2001 by and between AltaVista Company, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and James Barnett is entered into as of this 24th day of June, 2002 (the "Original Offer Letter"). WHEREAS, the parties hereto wish to amend the Original Offer Letter to provide Mr. Barnett with a special incentive to maximize the value of the Company; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged and agreed, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. The Original Offer Letter is hereby amended by adding the following new provisions. "In the event the Company experiences a Change of Control, you will have the right (subject to the conditions set forth below) to receive a cash payment equal to 2% of the total proceeds (subject to the terms and conditions set forth below) received by the Company or its stockholders. Proceeds placed in escrow for indemnification or other such purposes will be valued when released from escrow and you will be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to 2% of the amount released from escrow, subject to the vesting and other terms and conditions described below) (the "Barnett Special Bonus"). The value of any securities traded on a nationally recognized stock exchange which are received by the Company or its stockholders as part of a Change of Control transaction will be determined at the time the securities are received by the Company or its stockholders. The Barnett Special Bonus shall be due and payable at the closing of the transaction giving rise to the Change of Control, except for any portion of the Barnett Special Bonus from proceeds placed in escrow, which shall be due and payable concurrently with the release of such proceeds. Contingent proceeds, commonly referred to as an "earn out", will not be deemed to be part of the Barnett Special Bonus and you will not be entitled to receive a percentage of any such amounts, unless you are employed by the Company or its successor at the time such contingent proceeds are earned (the "Earn Out Date"). This right to receive the Barnett Special Bonus shall vest as follows: beginning on your original hire date of September 1, 2001, 1/36 of the Barnett Special Bonus shall vest for each month of service until fully vested on September 1, 2004. Notwithstanding the immediately prior sentence, the vesting of this right shall automatically accelerate in full if you are employed by the Company at the time of any Change of Control or if, during the 180 days preceding any Change of Control, your employment should be terminated for any reason other than for Cause, or if you should terminate your employment for Good Reason. This right to receive the Barnett Special Bonus shall terminate on the fifth anniversary of the date you were originally hired as an employee by the Company (the "Special Bonus Expiration Date"). Your vested portion, if any, of the Barnett Special Bonus shall continue to be outstanding
until the Special Bonus Expiration Date if, prior to a Change of Control (x) your employment is terminated for any reason other than for Cause or (y) you should terminate your employment for any reason including Good Reason. The Barnett Special Bonus shall be based on the gross amount of proceeds received by the Company or its stockholders, net of amounts owed to investment bankers and attorneys in connection with the Change of Control transaction. You shall not be permitted to assign the Barnett Special Bonus, except that you may assign the Barnett Special Bonus to a revocable trust of which you are the grantor, and you may make a testamentary disposition of the Barnett Special Bonus to your spouse. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Barnett Special Bonus shall automatically terminate if you are terminated for Cause." 2. The Company agrees to use its best efforts to ensure that the rights granted under the Original Offer Letter and this First Amendment to Offer Letter are effective and that you enjoy the benefits thereof and hereof to the extent that you are entitled to them. The Company will not, by any voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms required to be performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all of the provisions of the Original Offer Letter and this First Amendment to Offer Letter and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary, appropriate or reasonably requested in order to protect your rights thereunder and hereunder against impairment. 3. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original Offer Letter. 4. Except as expressly modified by this First Amendment, the Original Offer Letter shall remain in full force and effect. This First Amendment and the Original Offer Letter (and those documents and agreements referenced herein and therein) constitute the entire agreement relating to the subject matter hereof. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this First Amendment as of the date first written above. ALTAVISTA COMPANY /s/ David S. Wetherell - ---------------------- Name: David S. Wetherell Title: Chairman of the Board /s/ James Barnett - ------------------ James Barnett
EXHIBIT 10.27 EXECUTIVE RETENTION AGREEMENT THIS EXECUTIVE RETENTION AGREEMENT ("Agreement") by and between CMGI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") headquartered 100 Brickstone Square, Andover, Massachusetts and Peter L. Gray (the "Executive"), is made as of August 28, 2002. WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") has determined that Executive plays a critical role in the operations of the Company; and WHEREAS, the Board has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage the continued employment and dedication of the Executive. NOW, THEREFORE, as an inducement for and in consideration of the Executive remaining in its employ, the Company agrees that the Executive shall receive the severance benefits set forth in this Agreement in the event the Executive's employment with the Company is terminated under the circumstances described below. 1. Not an Employment Contract. The Executive acknowledges that this Agreement does not constitute a contract of employment or impose on the Company any obligation to retain the Executive as an employee and that this Agreement does not prevent the Executive from terminating his employment. Executive understands and acknowledges that he is an employee at will and that either he or the Company may terminate the employment relationship between them at any time and for any reason. 2. Severance Pay. (a) Severance Pay Following a Change in Control. In the event a Change in Control (as defined below) occurs and, within one (1) year thereafter, the employment of the Executive is terminated by the Company for a reason other than for Cause (as defined below) or by the Executive for Good Reason (as defined below), then the Company shall pay to the Executive (as severance pay) a lump sum payment equal to his then current base salary multiplied by two (2), within 30 days after the Termination Date (as defined below). The Company shall also pay to the Executive as severance pay (as soon as practicable after determination of the level of payouts under the Company's bonus plan for the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs) an amount equal to the Bonus (as defined below) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of complete months that the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs and the denominator of which shall be twelve (12). Additionally, on the Executive's last day of employment, the vesting of each of the stock options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company set forth on Exhibit A hereto shall be accelerated in full, such that the Executive shall be entitled to exercise such stock options (in accordance with the exercise terms and conditions set forth in the option agreement and/or plan pursuant to which such stock options were granted) to the same extent as he would have been entitled had he been continuously employed by the Company until the end of the vesting period related to each such stock option. The Executive agrees that after the Termination Date, but prior to payment of the severance pay, bonus and acceleration of stock options called for by this paragraph, he shall execute a release, based on the Company's standard form severance agreement, of any and all claims he may have against the Company and its officers, employees, directors, parents and affiliates.
Executive understands and agrees that the payment of the severance pay, bonus and the acceleration of options called for by this paragraph are contingent on his execution of the previously described release of claims. In the event of any termination of employment giving rise to a severance payment pursuant to this Section 2(a), with respect to the options set forth on Exhibit A, the Executive shall have the right to exercise any vested options within a 12-month time period following such termination of employment, unless the options terminate sooner by the terms of the underlying option agreement. (b) Severance Pay Absent a Change in Control. In the event the employment of the Executive is terminated by the Company for a reason other than for Cause (as defined below), then the Company shall continue to pay to the Executive (as severance pay), his regular bi-weekly base salary as in effect on the Executive's last day of employment (exclusive of bonus or any other compensation), for one (1) year following the Termination Date (as defined below). If in connection with such termination, the Executive receives WARN notice which entitles him to 60 days of salary continuance and benefits ("WARN Benefits") and the Company does not require the Executive to work during such 60 day time period, in addition to the WARN Benefits the Executive will be entitled to ten (10 months) of severance pay at his then-current base salary (which shall be a total of 1 year of base salary in total). The Company shall also pay to the Executive as severance pay (as soon as practicable after determination of the level of payouts under the Company's bonus plan for the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs) an amount equal to the Bonus (as defined below) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of complete months that the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs and the denominator of which shall be twelve (12). Unless the parties agree otherwise, the severance pay provided for in the first sentence of this Section 2(b) shall be paid in installments, in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices. The Executive agrees that after the Termination Date, but prior to payment of the severance pay and bonus called for by this paragraph, he shall execute a release, based on the Company's standard form severance agreement, of any and all claims he may have against the Company and its officers, employees, directors, parents and affiliates. Executive understands and agrees that the payment of the severance pay and bonus called for by this paragraph are contingent on his execution of the previously described release of claims. In the event of any termination of employment giving rise to a severance payment pursuant to this Section 2(b), with respect to the options set forth on Exhibit A, the Executive shall have the right to exercise any vested options within a 12-month time period following such termination of employment, unless the options terminate sooner by the terms of the underlying option agreement. (c) Sole Remedy. The payment to the Executive of the amounts payable under this Section 2 (and applicable acceleration of options) shall constitute the sole remedy of the Executive in the event of a termination of the Executive's employment by the Company or a resignation by the Executive that results in payment of benefits under this Section 2. 3. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings: (a) "Bonus" shall mean the amount that the Executive would have been entitled to receive under the Company's bonus plan in effect for the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurred, if the Termination Date had not occurred and the Executive had been employed for the entire fiscal year, determined in accordance with the terms of such bonus plan.

Common Area Charges. Commencing on June 1, 2002, Paragraph 16 shall be amended to provide that Tenant's percentage share of common area charges shall be adjusted based on the reduced square footage of the Modified Premises as follows: (i) seventy-two and nine-tenths percent (72.9%) if the square footage of the Modified Premises is reduced to 55,000 square feet, and (ii) sixty-two and two-tenth percent (62.2%) if the square footage of the Modified Premises is reduced to 46,951 square feet.

Repair and Maintenance. From and after June 1, 2002, paragraph 9 of the Lease is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 4
"Tenant has inspected the Premises and accepts the Premises in its current condition and acknowledges that the Premises are in good and sanitary order, condition and repair. Except as expressly provided below, Tenant shall at its sole cost keep and maintain the entire Premises and every part thereof including, without limitation, the windows, window frames, plate glass, glazing, elevators within the Premises, truck doors, doors and all door hardware, the interior walls and partitions, lighting and the electrical, mechanical, and plumbing systems. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 17, Landlord shall keep and maintain the roof, structural elements, exterior walls of the building constituting the Project, the heating and air conditioning systems, the building access/security system, the fire-life safety system and the Common Area (including, without limitation, the parking areas, landscaping and all amenities located outside the building and the Common Areas in the building) in good order and repair. Tenant waives all rights under and benefits of California Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1941, and 1942 and under any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect. The cost of the repairs and maintenance which are the obligation of Landlord hereunder, including without limitation, maintenance contracts and supplies, materials, equipment and tools used in such repairs and maintenance shall be a common area charge and Tenant shall pay its percentage share of such costs to Landlord as provided in paragraph 16; provided, however, that if any repairs or maintenance is required because of the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, or its agents, employees or invitees, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the full cost of such repairs or maintenance. Notwithstanding the above, the cost of roof replacement and structural repairs to the building shall be amortized over its useful life (including interest at a rate of two percent (2%) over the then current Prime Rate as published by the Wall Street Journal) and the amortized cost shall be included within common area charges and Tenant shall pay its proportionate share thereof as provided in paragraph 16 of this lease." 8. Utilities and Services. From and after June 1, 2002, Paragraph 12 of the Lease is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: "Landlord shall furnish to the Premises and to the Project, the following utilities and services: (i) water, gas and electricity reasonably suitable for the intended use of the Premises and the Project, twenty-four (24) hours every day of the 5
week, (ii) heat and air conditioning reasonably suitable for the comfortable use and occupation of the Premises and the Project during business hours, and (iii) refuse collection and janitorial services. Tenant agrees that at all times it will cooperate fully with Landlord and abide by all reasonable regulations and requirements that Landlord may prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems. Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant to provide heating, ventilating and air conditioning to all or any portion of the Premises outside of Business Hours if requested by Tenant, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its actual costs in so providing such service as reasonably estimated by Landlord. Business Hours shall mean: Monday through Friday, excluding generally observed national holidays, from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Tenant shall arrange for and pay for all telephone, and all other services supplied to or consumed on the Premises and not provided by Landlord. In the event that any service is not separately metered or billed to the Premises, the cost of such utility service or other service shall be a common area charge and Tenant shall pay its percentage share of such cost to Landlord as provided in paragraph 16. In addition, the cost of all utilities and services furnished by Landlord to the Premises and to the Project shall be a common area charge and Tenant shall pay its percentage share of such costs to Landlord as provided in paragraph 16, except as such costs may be specifically allocated otherwise herein. Tenant shall pay directly to Landlord (and such amount shall not be included as a common area charge) for any water, gas, electricity or HVAC usage that is separately metered to the Premises or any part thereof. If Tenant's use of any such utility or service is materially in excess of the average furnished to the other tenants of the Project, and such utility or service is not separately metered, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand, as additional rent, the full cost of such excess use, as reasonably determined by Landlord, or Landlord may cause such utility or service to be separately metered, in which case Tenant shall pay the full cost of such utility or service and reimburse Landlord upon demand for the cost of installing the separate meter. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, (i) the Palo Alto utility bill will be transferred into Landlord's name on June 1, 2002; (ii) the existing separate electric meter for the third floor will be segregated into a separate electricity bill [this meter will track the electricity consumption on the third floor (excluding the air conditioning unit) and none of this bill will be charged to Tenant]; (iii) Landlord will cause to be installed, at Landlord's expense, a private meter measuring the kilowatt-hours 6
used by the air conditioning unit serving the third floor; (iv) Landlord will cause to be installed, at Landlord's expense, a private meter measuring the kilowatt-hours used for the outside lights; (v) the cost of electricity used by the third floor air conditioning unit (to be charged to the third floor tenants) and the outside lights (to be charged as a common area charge on a percentage basis) will be deducted from the main electricity bill and the remaining balance after such deductions will be allocated to Tenant; (vi) if Ingenuity enters into a lease with Landlord for a portion of the second floor, a monthly amount for electrical usage shall be established based on a standard usage of electricity for office space of $.15/sf/mo of rentable area, based on Business Hours of 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., plus an after hours charge of $25/hr. and such amount shall be charged to Ingenuity with a corresponding deduction from the main electricity bill for which Tenant is responsible in clause (v) above. Landlord may revise the estimated utility charges from time to time, as reasonably required to fully cover such costs in advance. Landlord shall not be liable for, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent by reason of, the failure of any person or entity to furnish any of the foregoing services when such failure is caused by accident, breakage, repairs, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances or labor disputes of any character, governmental moratoriums, regulations or other governmental actions, or by any other cause, similar or dissimilar, beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. In addition, Tenant shall not be relieved from the performance of any covenant or agreement in this lease because of any such failure, and no eviction of Tenant shall result from such failure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this lease, if: (a) any services or utilities are interrupted or discontinued due to Landlord's negligence or willful misconduct and the Premises are untenantable as a result of such interruption or discontinuance, and (b) Tenant shall have given written notice respecting such interruption or discontinuance to Landlord, and Landlord shall have failed to cure such interruption or discontinuance within three (3) business days after receiving such notice, then Tenant shall be entitled to an equitable abatement of rent to the extent that Tenant's use of the Premises is thereafter prevented by such interruption or discontinuance." 9. Common Area; Parking. Paragraph 15 of the Lease is hereby amended to add the Common Area Space (and the Additional Common Area Space if the square footage is reduced to 46,951 square feet) as Common Area under the Lease. 7
From and after June 1, 2002, the first sentence of the third subparagraph of paragraph 15 of the Lease is hereby amended to read as follows: "Tenant shall have the non exclusive use of (i) one hundred seventy-nine (179) parking spaces in the common area of the Project if the Modified Premises consist of 55,000 square feet, and (ii) one hundred fifty-three (153) parking spaces in the common area of the Project if the Modified Premises consist of 46,951 square feet, as designated by Landlord from time to time; provided that Landlord and Landlord's agents, contractors and employees shall have the right to use such parking areas as reasonably necessary to fulfill Landlord's obligations under this lease." 10. Common Area Charges. A new subparagraph is added to the end of paragraph 16 as follows: "If the occupancy of the Project, during any part of any calendar year is less than one hundred percent (100%), Landlord may make an appropriate adjustment of the variable components of common area charges for that year, as reasonably determined by Landlord using sound accounting and management principles, to determine the amount of common area charges that would have been incurred had the Project been one hundred percent (100%) occupied. This amount shall be considered to have been the amount of common area charges for that calendar year. For purposes of this subparagraph, "variable components" include only those component expenses that are affected by variations in occupancy levels." 11. Security Deposit. Commencing on June 1, 2002 the amount of the Letter of Credit required under paragraph 4(e) of the Lease shall be reduced to: (i) Eight Hundred Ninety-Three Thousand Two Hundred Seventy-Nine and 16/100 Dollars ($893,279.16) if the Modified Premises consist of 55,000 square feet, and (ii) Seven Hundred Sixty-Two Thousand Five Hundred Fifty-One and 82/100 Dollars ($762,551.82) if the Modified Premises consist of 46,951 square feet. 12. Lease Modification Fee. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord's entering into this Amendment, reducing the lease term, reducing the size of the Premises and terminating future rent obligations for the period after the Modified Lease Termination Date shall result in a significant financial benefit to Tenant in excess of the consideration specified below. As consideration therefor, Tenant shall: 8
(a) Concurrent with Tenant's execution of this Amendment: (1) Pay to Landlord the sum of Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000) (consisting of the $4,000,000 cash security deposit currently held by Landlord and an additional $2,000,000 in immediately available funds); (2) Transfer to Landlord 275,412 shares of CMGI stock (subject to existing restrictions) at no cost or charge to Landlord; (3) Issue and deliver a common stock purchase warrant for 1,000,000 shares of stock in AltaVista Company in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D; (4) Transfer title to and ownership of any and all furniture, fixtures and data cabling in the Current Premises (i.e., the entire building) as listed on Exhibit E attached hereto to Landlord free of all liens by Bill of Sale in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F; (b) Pay to Landlord within five (5) days after Landlord's request (i) the costs incurred by Landlord to demise the space leased to Ingenuity on the second floor (excluding specific tenant improvements for Ingenuity within the Ingenuity leased space) and (ii) brokers' commissions/fees payable in connection with the Ingenuity lease. 13. Cancellation of Option to Extend Term.

finder or other person representing or purporting to represent Tenant or Landlord, respectively, in connection with the Premises and the negotiation and execution of this Amendment. Tenant shall be responsible for and pay any and all broker commissions payable to Tenant's Broker. Landlord's Broker is not receiving a commission in connection with this transaction. 15. Use of Personal Property. Tenant shall have the right to use the personal property currently located in the Modified Premises and listed on Exhibit E attached ("Personal Property") and such Personal Property is deemed part of the Premises leased to Tenant hereunder.

Following such withdrawal from such escrow accounts, [***] and [***] shall be deemed to have paid to the Partnership the amounts due pursuant to this Section 3.4G, and the Partnership shall be deemed to have released it rights described in the last sentence of Section 3.1 (as amended by this Fifth Amendment)." 6.

For purposes of this Agreement, "Pro Rata Share" shall mean, in the case of each Limited Partner, the Capital Contributions of such Limited Partner divided by the sum of the Capital Contributions of all Limited Partners, provided that in the case of calculations with respect to interest paid on the Default Amount, the denominator shall be the Capital Contributions of all Limited Partners other than [***] and [***].

The Partnership shall pay the fees and expenses described in clause (ii) in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Fifth Amendment, up to the amount of the estimate contemplated by the preceding sentence." 11. Amendments to Section 6.4. Section 6.4 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: "If, on or before [***], any of [***], or any person who has been substituted for any of the foregoing individuals upon the recommendation of the LP Advisory Board and with the prior approval of Two - 6 -

At any time within ninety (90) days after receipt of notice of a Triggering Event, Two-Thirds in Interest of the Limited Partners may by an election in writing determine to put the Partnership into Continuity Mode. While in Continuity Mode, the General Partner shall continue to act on behalf of the Partnership to perform the functions of the General Partner with respect to the existing investments of the Partnership. At any time after commencement of the Continuity Mode (or such shorter period of time as may be agreed to by Two-Thirds in Interest of the Limited Partners), Two-Thirds in Interest of the Limited Partners may by an election in writing remove the General Partner or dissolve the Partnership. Each of [***] agrees that, during the period from the Amendment Effective Date through [***], he shall be engaged in the activities contemplated by the second sentence of Section 7.1 (as amended by this Fifth Amendment), and, unless the Management Company becomes entitled [***], he shall not be entitled to receive out of amounts paid by the Partnership to the Management Company as management fees (or otherwise), [***], and that the Partnership [***] or any other person during such period (except pursuant to Section 5.10B).

If, pursuant to Section 11.1(1)(x), the term of the Partnership is extended, the Management Fee for any such extension period payable to the Management Company shall be an amount mutually acceptable to the Management Company and the Partnership (any such Partnership approval to require the consent of Two-Thirds in Interest of the Limited Partners), but in no event shall such fees exceed $[***] per year, and any such Management Fee shall be payable in semi-annual installments on January 1 and July 1 of each year during the extension period.

Before proceeding with any transaction or relationship involving any such conflict of interest, (i) the General Partner shall seek advice from the LP Advisory Board regarding the proposed transaction or relationship and (ii) the Limited Partners shall have approved the proposed transaction or relationship (in the manner provided in the following sentence). The General Partner shall notify the Limited Partners in writing of the proposed transaction or relationship, and unless, prior to the last day of the 10-Business Day period following such notice, Limited Partners whose aggregate Percentage of Contributed Capital equals or exceeds 33 1/3% of all Limited Partners' Percentage of Contributed Capital shall have objected in writing to the General Partner to the proposed transaction or relationship, the Limited Partners shall be deemed to have approved the proposed transaction or relationship.

E. The LP Advisory Board shall have such responsibilities and authority, in addition to those set forth in this Section 6.6, as shall be specified in this Agreement (as amended hereby); provided, however, that in no event shall the LP Advisory Board, any Domestic Designee or Foreign Designee, or any Limited Partner of which such designee is a representative be deemed by virtue of its role with respect to the LP Advisory Board to take part in the management or control of the Partnership's affairs or to owe any fiduciary duty to the Partnership or any other Partner or person. F. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided herein, (I) in order for the LP Advisory Board to make a recommendation with respect to the Foreign Fund, any decision of the LP Advisory Board shall require the approval of the Foreign Designee (and for this purpose the vote of the Domestic Designees on any matter shall be disregarded), and (II) in order for the LP Advisory Board to make a recommendation with respect to the Partnership, any decision of the LP Advisory Board shall require the approval of a majority in number of the Domestic Designees (and for this purpose the vote of the Foreign Designee on any matter shall be disregarded).

Amendment to Section 7.3. The following language is hereby inserted at the end of Section 7.3: "The General Partner represents and warrants that, on the Amendment Effective Date there are, and prior to the Amendment Effective Date there have been, no side letters or similar arrangements ("Side Letters") between (X) (aa) the Partnership, (bb) the General Partner or (cc) CMGI, Inc. or its Affiliates, but with respect to CMGI, Inc. or any Affiliate solely in its capacity as a member of the General Partner or acting for or on behalf of the General Partner, on the one hand and (Y) any Limited Partner or any Affiliate of a Limited Partner, on the other hand, except for those Side Letters listed or described on Exhibit 4 hereto. The General Partner hereby undertakes to provide the Limited Partners, within ten (10) days after execution thereof, with copies of any Side Letters entered into after the Amendment Effective Date between (X) (aa) the Partnership, (bb) the General Partner or (cc) CMGI, Inc. or its Affiliates, but with respect to CMGI, Inc. or any Affiliate solely in its capacity as a member of the General Partner or acting for or on behalf of the General Partner, on the one hand and (Y) any Limited Partner or any Affiliate of a Limited Partner, on the other hand (any such Side Letter, a "Future Side Letter"). To the extent that any Future Side Letter relates to the interest of a Limited Partner in the Partnership, and establishes rights or benefits in favor of such Limited Partner or its Affiliates that are more favorable to such Limited Partner or its Affiliates than the rights or benefits that are established in favor of the other Limited Partners, then each of the other Limited Partners shall be entitled hereby to the same rights granted in any such Side Letter to the same extent as if such Limited Partner entered into an identical Side Letter with the Partnership, the General Partner or CMGI, Inc. or its Affiliate, as applicable (to the extent such rights are reasonably applicable to such other Limited Partner), unless the Limited Partner notifies the Partnership in writing to the contrary within 30 days after it receives a copy of such Side Letter. Without limiting the foregoing, the General Partner represents and warrants that neither it nor the Management Company has: (I) provided to any Limited Partner any financial or nonfinancial incentive or inducement to execute the Fifth Amendment and/or the LP Release, other than the arrangements described in the Fifth Amendment; or (II) modified or agreed to modify the terms of the LP Release to be provided by any Limited Partner. - 12 -
Neither the General Partner nor the Management Company shall (I) provide to any Limited Partner any financial incentive or inducement to execute the Fifth Amendment and/or the LP Release, other than the arrangements described in the Fifth Amendment or (II) modify the terms of the LP Release to be provided by any Limited Partner; provided, however, that this sentence shall not, and is not intended to, prevent or prohibit the General Partner on its own behalf or on behalf of any other party (other than the Partnership) from: (x) providing payment of any amount to any person (including a Limited Partner) in connection with the settlement of any litigation proceeding to which the General Partner and/or any of its Affiliates is a party which has been commenced or is Imminent (as hereinafter defined) and the General Partner shall not be required to offer the benefits of any such payment to any Limited Partner pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 7.3; or (y) obtaining from a Limited Partner a release on such terms as the General Partner may in its sole discretion determine in connection with the settlement of any litigation proceeding to which the General Partner and/or any of its Affiliates is a party which has been commenced or is Imminent, provided that if any such release relates primarily to matters which are included in the definition of "Released Claims" (as defined in the LP Release) and such release is more favorable to the releasing party than the terms of the LP Release, the General Partner shall offer the same release terms to all Limited Partners who previously executed LP Releases. As used herein, a litigation proceeding shall be considered to be "Imminent" if the General Partner and/or its Affiliates have received a complaint from the plaintiffs, regardless of whether the complaint has actually been filed in a court of law. The proviso included in clause (y) shall not be applicable in the event of settlement of claims to the extent that such claims do not relate to matters which are included in the definition of "Released Claims" (as defined in the LP Release). If the General Partner provides to any Limited Partner any non-financial incentive or inducement to execute the Fifth Amendment and/or the LP Release, the General Partner shall disclose in writing to the Limited Partners such incentive or inducement as provided in the second paragraph of this Section 7.3, and provide to the Limited Partners the benefits of such non-financial incentive or inducement to the extent provided in said second paragraph of this Section 7.3." 16.

Entire Agreement; Ratification. This Amendment together with the LP Releases contains and constitutes the entire understanding and agreement by and among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous oral and written negotiations, agreements, commitments and writings in connection herewith. The Agreement is to be deemed amended by this Amendment only to the extent expressly provided in this Amendment, and in all other respects, the Agreement is hereby ratified and confirmed and shall remain in full force and effect. 22. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 23. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of Massachusetts. [Signature pages follow.] - 15 -

The LP Advisory Board shall have such responsibilities and authority, in addition to those set forth in this Section 6.6, as shall be specified in this Agreement (as amended hereby); provided, however, that in no event shall the LP Advisory Board, any Domestic Designee or Foreign Designee, or any Limited Partner of which such designee is a representative be deemed by virtue of its role with respect to the LP Advisory Board to take part in the management or control of the Partnership's affairs or to owe any fiduciary duty to the Partnership or any other Partner or person. - 8 -
F. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided herein, (I) in order for the LP Advisory Board to make a recommendation with respect to the Partnership, any decision of the LP Advisory Board shall require the approval of the Foreign Designee (and for this purpose the vote of the Domestic Designees on any matter shall be disregarded), and (II) in order for the LP Advisory Board to make a recommendation with respect to the Domestic Fund, any decision of the LP Advisory Board shall require the approval of two-thirds (2/3) in number of the Domestic Designees (and for this purpose the vote of the Foreign Designee on any matter shall be disregarded). G. The Foreign Designee shall be entitled to indemnification from the Partnership in respect of actions or omissions taken by him in such capacity, to the same extent that an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.3 provided, however, that clauses (x) and (y) of the first sentence of Section 9.3 shall be deemed modified in the case of the Foreign Designee and its Affiliates to state that the only circumstance under which such Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification or release thereunder shall be if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such Indemnitee acted in bad faith. The Foreign Designee shall not be liable to the Partnership or any other Partner for any act or omission taken or suffered by the Foreign Designee in good faith. 15. Amendment to Section 7.1. The first paragraph of Section 7.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: "The General Partner hereby agrees to use its best efforts in furtherance of the purposes and objectives of the Partnership and to devote to such purposes and objectives such of its time as shall be necessary for the management of the affairs of the Partnership. Until [***], each of the Principals agrees to use his best efforts in furtherance of the purposes and objectives of the Partnership, to devote such of his time as shall be necessary to the business of the Partnership, and to devote substantially all of his business time to the affairs of the Partnership, the Domestic Fund, the CMGI Funds, the Management Company, @Ventures Expansion Management LLC, @Ventures Expansion Fund, L.P., @Ventures Foreign Expansion Fund, L.P., CMGI @Ventures IV, LLC and other future @Ventures investment entities of which CMGI is the sole investor.

Amendment to Section 7.3. The following language is hereby inserted at the end of Section 7.3: "The General Partner represents and warrants that, on the Amendment Effective Date there are, and prior to the Amendment Effective Date there have been, no side letters or similar arrangements ("Side Letters") between (X) (aa) the Partnership or the Domestic Fund, (bb) the General Partner or (cc) CMGI, Inc. or its Affiliates, but with - 9 -
respect to CMGI, Inc. or any Affiliate solely in its capacity as a member of the General Partner or acting for or on behalf of the General Partner, on the one hand and (Y) any Limited Partner or any limited partner of the Domestic Fund (each, a "Fund Limited Partner"), or any Affiliate of any Fund Limited Partner, on the other hand, except for those Side Letters listed or described on Exhibit 4 hereto. The General Partner hereby undertakes to provide the Limited Partners, within ten (10) days after execution thereof, with copies of any Side Letters entered into after the Amendment Effective Date between (X) (aa) the Partnership or the Domestic Fund, (bb) the General Partner or (cc) CMGI, Inc. or its Affiliates, but with respect to CMGI, Inc. or any Affiliate solely in its capacity as a member of the General Partner or acting for or on behalf of the General Partner, on the one hand and (Y) any Fund Limited Partner or any Affiliate of a Fund Limited Partner, on the other hand (any such Side Letter, a "Future Side Letter"). To the extent that any Future Side Letter relates to the interest of a Fund Limited Partner in the Partnership or in the Domestic Fund, as applicable, and establishes rights or benefits in favor of such Fund Limited Partner or its Affiliates that are more favorable to such Fund Limited Partner or its Affiliates than the rights or benefits that are established in favor of any (other, if applicable) Limited Partner in the Partnership, then each of the (other, if applicable) Limited Partners in the Partnership shall be entitled hereby to the same rights granted in any such Side Letter to the same extent as if such Limited Partner entered into an identical Side Letter with the Partnership, the General Partner or CMGI, Inc. or its Affiliate, as applicable (to the extent such rights are reasonably applicable to such other Limited Partner), unless the Limited Partner notifies the Partnership in writing to the contrary within 30 days after it receives a copy of such Side Letter (provided that nothing contained herein shall bind the Domestic Fund or require the Domestic Fund to provide any rights or benefits to any Limited Partner of the Partnership). Without limiting the foregoing, the General Partner represents and warrants that neither it nor the Management Company has: (I) provided to any Fund Limited Partner any financial or nonfinancial incentive or inducement to execute the Second Amendment and/or the Limited Partner Release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1 (the "LP Release") (or the counterpart amendment and release documents for the Domestic Fund, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 5), other than the arrangements described in the Second Amendment (or the counterpart amendment for the Domestic Fund); or (II) modified or agreed to modify the terms of the LP Release to be provided by any Limited Partner (or the counterpart release to be provided by any Domestic Fund limited partner). Neither the General Partner nor the Management Company shall (I) provide to any Fund Limited Partner any financial incentive or inducement to execute the Second Amendment and/or the LP Release (or the counterpart amendment and release documents for the Domestic Fund), other than the arrangements described in the Second Amendment (or the counterpart amendment for the Domestic Fund) or (II) modify the terms of the LP Release to be provided by any Limited Partner or the counterpart release to be provided by any Domestic Fund limited partner; provided, however, that this sentence shall not, and is not intended to, prevent or prohibit the General Partner on its own behalf or on behalf of any other party (other than the Partnership and/or the Domestic Fund) from: (x) providing payment of any amount to any person (including a Fund Limited Partner) in connection with the settlement of any litigation proceeding to which the General Partner - 10 -
and/or any of its Affiliates is a party which has been commenced or is Imminent (as hereinafter defined) and the General Partner shall not be required to offer the benefits of any such payment to any Limited Partner pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 7.3; or (y) obtaining from a Fund Limited Partner a release on such terms as the General Partner may in its sole discretion determine in connection with the settlement of any litigation proceeding to which the General Partner and/or any of its Affiliates is a party which has been commenced or is Imminent, provided that if any such release relates primarily to matters which are included in the definition of "Released Claims" (as defined in the LP Release) and such release is more favorable to the releasing party than the terms of the LP Release, the General Partner shall offer the same release terms to all Limited Partners who previously executed LP Releases. As used herein, a litigation proceeding shall be considered to be "Imminent" if the General Partner and/or its Affiliates have received a complaint from the plaintiffs, regardless of whether the complaint has actually been filed in a court of law. The proviso included in clause (y) shall not be applicable in the event of settlement of claims to the extent that such claims do not relate to matters which are included in the definition of "Released Claims" (as defined in the LP Release). If the General Partner provides to any Fund Limited Partner any non-financial incentive or inducement to execute the Second Amendment and/or the LP Release (or the counterpart amendment and release documents for the Domestic Fund), the General Partner shall disclose in writing to the Limited Partners such incentive or inducement as provided in the second paragraph of this Section 7.3, and provide to the Limited Partners the benefits of such non-financial incentive or inducement to the extent provided in said second paragraph of this Section 7.3." 17. Amendment to Section 11.1. Section 11.1(1) is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: "(1) [***], provided that: (x) the term of the Partnership may be extended at the written request of the General Partner, for up to three one-year terms, provided that any such extension shall be effective only if approved by Two-Thirds in Interest of the Limited Partners of the Partnership; and (y) the term of the Partnership may be earlier terminated at the election of the General Partner if @Ventures Foreign Expansion Fund, L.P. has been terminated;" 18. Amendment to Section 11.2. The second sentence of Section 11.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: "At any time during the wind up, liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership as provided in this Section 11.2, Two-Thirds in Interest of the Limited Partners may (i) remove the General Partner and replace it, at Partnership expense, with a liquidator, and/or (ii) require the General Partner and/or liquidator to use commercially reasonable efforts to set up a liquidating trust pursuant to Section 11.3 in order to accomplish an orderly liquidation of the Partnership's assets on commercially reasonable terms." - 11 -

Ratification. In all other respects, the Agreement is hereby ratified and confirmed and shall remain in full force and effect. 25. Counterparts.

EXHIBIT 10.71 AMENDMENT #8 TO LEASE 1. Parties. This Amendment, dated as of November 6, 2001, is between Andover Mills Realty Limited Partnership ("Landlord") and CMGI, Inc. ("Tenant"). 2. Recitals. 2.1 Landlord and Tenant have entered into Lease, dated as of April 12, 1999, for space in Brickstone Square in Andover, Massachusetts (as now or hereafter amended, the "Lease"). Unless otherwise defined, terms used in this Amendment have the same meanings as those used in the Lease. 2.2 Tenant wishes to lease a designated portion of the Premises as shown in Exhibit "B-8" attached hereto and incorporated herein (the "Specified Surplus Space"), with a rentable area agreed to contain 26,053 square feet, to Cambridge Soundworks, Inc., or one of its affiliates (the "New Tenant"), and has requested Landlord's help in the leasing and buildout process. In order to accomplish this and other matters, for $10.00 and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the parties agree and the Lease is amended as follows as of the date hereof, notwithstanding anything to the contrary: 3. Amendment. 3.1 For a term of six (6) months from the date of this Amendment (the "Surplus Term"), in order to help Tenant lease the Surplus Space, Tenant grants to Surplus Landlord the ongoing right from time to time to market and show the Space and negotiate and enter into a new lease with the New Tenant for the Specified Surplus Space (the "New Lease"), with a term of between five (5) and ten (10) years plus any extensions, and "Buildout Costs" and "New Tenant Costs" as set forth in Section 3.2(a) below. Landlord has no obligation to exercise any of these rights. The "Buildout Costs" means Landlord's good faith estimate of the third-party hard and soft costs of the improvements, modifications, and tenant allowances to be performed and/or paid for by the lessor in connection with or as a result of the initial buildout of Specified Surplus Space under that New Lease (the "Buildout"). 3.2 If Landlord enters into the New Lease for the Specified Surplus Space per Section 3.1, Landlord will notify Tenant in writing, and then: (a) Within fifteen (15) days thereafter, Tenant will pay to or as directed by Landlord the approved Buildout Costs for that New Lease as described in Section 3.1 above, and leasing commissions for that New Lease (collectively, the "New Tenant Costs") for ultimate payment by Landlord to the parties entitled thereto as and when due, in addition to any rent payable by Tenant under the Lease. Subject to the terms of this Amendment, the New Tenant Costs payable by Tenant hereunder will not exceed Eight Hundred Eighty-five Thousand Eight
Hundred Two Dollars ($885,802). (b) Within thirty (30) days thereafter, Tenant will remove all of Tenant's Property from the Specified Surplus Space and surrender vacant possession of the Specified Surplus Space to Landlord in the condition required by the Lease. Tenant's Property not removed by that date will be deemed abandoned by Tenant in favor of Landlord. If the New Lease is validly terminated before the "Start Date" (defined below), possession of the Specified Surplus Space will be returned to Tenant in its then "as-is" state and will continue to be part of the Premises subject to all of the terms of the Lease, Landlord will deliver to Tenant (or credit against rent owed by Tenant under the Lease) any security deposit from the New Tenant that has been delivered to and may be retained and applied Landlord under that New Lease, and Landlord will cooperate reasonably with Tenant (at no cost or Liabilities to Landlord) in Tenant's enforcement of any claims against the New Tenant under that New Lease. (c) Landlord will supervise the performance of the Buildout to be performed by the lessor under that New Lease, and at Tenant's request in each instance will reasonably cooperate with and periodically report to Tenant to keep Tenant informed as to the status of the Buildout, all at no additional charge to Tenant. As consideration for Landlord's agreement above, Tenant hereby waives and releases all claims of any type that it may have against Landlord or any of its affiliated persons or entities in connection with the Buildout (excluding any contractors or subcontractors), except for claims of Tenant resulting from Landlord's failure to pay or cause to be paid any Buildout Costs in excess of those for which Tenant is responsible hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, Landlord will cooperate reasonably with Tenant (at no cost or liability to Landlord) if Tenant wishes to assert claims against others in connection with the Buildout. In addition to any other rights of Landlord, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord, the New Tenant and their respective professionals, contractors, subcontractors and representatives will have the right to perform the Buildout and to enter the Specified Surplus Space and other necessary areas of the Premises as may be necessary in connection therewith. Subject to Section 3.2(b) above, once the New Lease is entered into Landlord will have no obligations to Tenant with respect to that Specified Surplus Space and Tenant will have no rights therein except as are specifically set forth herein. Subject to Section 3.4 below, Tenant's surrender of possession andlor the performance of the Buildout will not be deemed to be a termination of the Lease in whole or in part nor will they operate to relieve, reduce or waive any of Tenant's obligations under the Lease with respect to the payment of rent or otherwise. (d) Tenant will not be responsible for any costs for the New Lease in excess of the New Tenant Costs per Section 3.2(a) above unless Tenant fails to pay the New Tenant Costs or fails to vacate and surrender possession of space as and when required, or otherwise defaults hereunder or under the rest of the Lease. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that its timely payment in full of the New Tenant Costs and its surrender of vacant possession as and when required are material inducements to Landlord to enter into this Amendment, and Tenant's failure to do so will be a default under the Lease, and in addition to any other rights and remedies of Landlord, Tenant will be responsible for any Liabilities incurred by Landlord under that New Lease and/or in connection with that Specified Surplus Space resulting therefrom 3.3 [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]
3.4 Subject to the terms hereof, and despite the entry into the New Lease and the earlier surrender of possession, the Lease will continue for the Specified Surplus Space until the "Start Date" for that New Lease. The "Start Date" for that New Lease will be the date that the New Tenant under that New Lease accepts the Specified Surplus Space and occupies a substantial part of that space to conduct business, or the rent commencement date occurs under that New Lease, whichever is earlier. As of the Start Date: (a) the Lease will terminate and expire as to that Specified Surplus Space only (and no other space) and the agreed rentable area of the remainder of the Premises will be reduced by the rentable area of that Specified Surplus Space; (b) Tenant' s parking rights under the Lease will be reduced by 78 vehicles (26 of which will be assigned spaces), as shown in Exhibit "A-8" attached hereto; and (c) provided that Tenant has complied with Sections 3.2(a) and (b) above and is not otherwise in default, Tenant's Percentage will be reduced by 2.77% and Tenant's obligation to pay rent for that Specified Surplus Space for periods thereafter will terminate. 3.5 Amendment #6 to Lease, dated 4/17/2001, and Amendment #7 to Lease, dated 4/18/2001, both are deleted from the Lease and are null and void. 3.6 As a material inducement to Tenant to enter into this Amendment, Landlord agrees that, as of the date hereof, Tenant owes no amounts to Landlord except the rent due under the Lease and Tenant is not, to Landlord's knowledge, in default under the Lease. 3.7 As a material inducement to Landlord to enter into this Amendment Tenant agrees that, as of the date hereof, Landlord owes no amounts to Tenant under the Lease and Landlord is not, to Tenant's knowledge, in default under the Lease, and Tenant agrees, represents and warrants to Landlord that: Tenant has not leased, subleased, assigned or conveyed the Specified Surplus Space or its interests therein to anyone else and has not employed or engaged any brokers or agents in connection therewith or in connection with this Amendment, and in either case will not (and will not have the right or power to) do so during the Surplus Term. 3.8 The Lease remains in full force and effect, and except as set forth in this Amendment, the Lease remains unchanged. Time is of the essence in this Amendment and the rest of the Lease and holding over will not be permitted. Except for the representations and warranties specifically set forth in this Amendment, neither party has made nor relied on any representations and warranties of any type, express or implied, in connection with this amendment or its subject matter. Landlord and Tenant are not partners or joint venturers nor are they agents of the other. Landlord will not be deemed to have assumed any of Tenant's Liabilities by reason of Landlord's exercise of or failure to exercise any of its rights hereunder or under the rest of the Lease, and Landlord is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights hereunder or to exercise them in any particular manner, including, without limitation, showing, marketing or negotiating for the lease of any of the Specified Surplus Space. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord may in its sole and absolute discretion show, market, negotiate or lease any or all of its own space in the Project to or with existing New Tenant or other prospective tenants before, during, after or in lieu of showing, marketing, negotiating or leasing any of the Specified Surplus Space, regardless of the effect on the leasing of the Specified Surplus Space, and without incurring any Liabilities to Tenant or
anyone else. On Landlord's written request from time to time, Tenant will promptly execute and deliver to Landlord amendments to this Lease and/or the existing Notice of Lease evidencing the termination of the Lease with respect to the Specified Surplus Space and the other matters provided for in this Amendment. Tenant's failure to execute and deliver such amendments will not be a condition to the effectiveness of such termination and the other matters provided for in this Amendment. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, intending to be legally bound, the parties have executed this Amendment as of the date in Article 1 above. CMGI, INC., a Delaware corporation By: /s/ George A.

(b) It understands that (i) the interest in the LLC it is acquiring has not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws and cannot be resold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act and such laws or unless an exemption from such registration is available, (ii) such registration under the -11-
Securities Act and such laws is unlikely at any time in the future and neither the LLC nor the Members are obligated to file a registration statement under the Securities Act or such laws, and (iii) the assignment, sale, transfer, exchange, or other disposition of the interests in the LLC is restricted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE III CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS 3.01 Capital Contributions. (a) Each Member shall be required to contribute capital to the LLC in accordance with this Section 3.01. (b) As and when the LLC is required to contribute capital to any Fund, each Member shall contribute to the LLC his or its proportionate share of the amount required to be contributed by the LLC to such Fund, determined in the manner -12-
hereinafter provided. Each of the Members hereby acknowledges that it has received copies of the CMGI Fund Agreement, the Domestic Fund Agreement and the Foreign Fund Agreement, that it has read each of such Agreements, and understands the LLC's obligations thereunder, including without limitation, the LLC's obligations to make capital contributions to each of the Funds and to fund certain escrow accounts. (i) With respect to any routine call for capital by any Fund (which capital calls the Members acknowledge are generally, but not always, called for on a quarter annual basis), each Member shall contribute a portion of the total amount called for based on his Percentage Interest in the LLC on the date on which such capital is required to be contributed by the LLC to the Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Voting Managing Members may, in respect of any particular call for capital, determine to modify each Member's share of the contribution to be made by such Member to the LLC if the Voting Managing Members reasonably determine that the amounts called for by any Fund relate in whole or in part to a Follow-on Investment, in which case the portion of the contributions which relate to such Follow-on Investment shall be contributed by the Members in accordance with their respective Investment Percentage Interests in such Follow-on Investment. The Voting Managing Members may also make other equitable adjustments to the portion to be contributed by each Member to the LLC in respect of Investments to be made by the Funds to take into account similar factors. If any Member is admitted to the LLC during any calendar quarter, such Member shall be required to contribute to the LLC an amount equal to (x) the aggregate amount of the sum of (I) any contributions made by the other Members to the LLC during or with respect to such calendar quarter pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(i) plus (II) the unspent amount, if any, of the capital contributions made by the Members to the LLC in previous quarters multiplied by (y) such Member's Percentage Interest in the LLC. The amount so contributed by such Member shall be distributed to the other Members (exclusive of Members whose Percentage Interests have been reduced to zero), so that, following the admission of such additional Member, all Members will have contributed a portion of the amount described in clause (x) of the preceding sentence equal to their respective Percentage Interests in the LLC as in effect immediately following such admission. (ii) With respect to any amount required to satisfy the LLC's obligations under Section 5.2E of the Domestic Fund Agreement [clawback obligation], or Section 5.2E of the Foreign Fund Agreement [clawback -13-
obligation], each Member shall contribute a portion of the total amount called for based on the aggregate amount of distributions received by such Member from the LLC which are, in the reasonable judgment of the Voting Managing Members, attributable to the Domestic Fund and the Foreign Fund, respectively, as compared to the aggregate amount of distributions received by all Members from the LLC which are, in the reasonable judgment of the Voting Managing Members, attributable to the Domestic Fund and the Foreign Fund, respectively. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Member be obligated to contribute to the LLC any amount pursuant to this clause (ii) in excess of the total amount of distributions received by (or held in the Vesting Escrow for the benefit of) such Member from the LLC. The obligation of each Member to make contributions pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(ii) shall survive the withdrawal, resignation or default (as described in Section 3.01(e) below) of any Member, and the occurrence of an Event of Forfeiture of any Member. The LLC may contribute to the Domestic Fund or the Foreign Fund on behalf of any Member any amounts held in a Vesting Escrow on behalf of such Member, in respect of such Member's obligations under this Section 3.01(b)(ii). (iii) As and when the LLC is required to deposit amounts into the escrow account established pursuant to Section 5.2F of the Domestic Fund Agreement or Section 5.2F of the Foreign Fund Agreement, the Voting Managing Members may determine to call for contributions of cash to the LLC to enable the LLC to satisfy any such obligation. Each Member shall contribute a portion of the amount which the Voting Managing Members so determine to call, based on the aggregate amount of distributions received by such Member from the LLC which are, in the reasonable judgment of the Voting Managing Members, attributable to the Domestic Fund and the Foreign Fund, respectively, as compared to the aggregate amount of distributions received by all Members from the LLC which are, in the reasonable judgment of the Voting Managing Members, attributable to the Domestic Fund and the Foreign Fund, respectively. In no event shall any Member be obligated to contribute to the LLC any amount pursuant to this clause (iii) in excess of the total amount of distributions received by (or held in the Vesting Escrow for the benefit of) such Member from the LLC. The obligation of each Member to make contributions pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(iii) shall survive the withdrawal, resignation or default (as described in Section 3.01(e) below) of any Member, and the occurrence of an Event of Forfeiture of any Member. The LLC may contribute to the Domestic Fund or the Foreign Fund on behalf of any Member any amounts held in a Vesting Escrow on behalf of such Member, in respect of such Member's obligations under this Section 3.01(b)(iii). -14-
(c) The Voting Managing Members may call for capital for other LLC purposes as they may from time to time reasonably determine, and any capital called for pursuant to this Section 3.01(c) shall be contributed by the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests on the date on which such capital is called for. (d) The Voting Managing Members shall call for capital from all Members for the purposes specified in this Section 3.01 from time to time as needed. In connection with any such call, the Voting Managing Members shall provide to each Member notice of a call for capital (which notice may be given in writing or by electronic mail), which notice shall specify the aggregate amount called for from the LLC, a general statement of the purposes for which such capital call is being made, each Member's share of the total amount called for, and the date on which the capital contribution is due (which date shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, be not less than 10 days after the date of the notice). (e) Any contribution of capital which is not made when due shall bear interest at the prime rate of interest announced from time to time by The Wall Street Journal plus 1% per annum, until paid in full. Without limiting the foregoing, if a Member fails to satisfy his, her or its capital contribution obligation as required under this Section 3.01 in a timely manner, the LLC may exercise any rights it may have under the Act or otherwise at law or in equity, and shall also have the rights provided in this Section 3.01(e). In any such event, a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members (determined exclusive of the Member which has defaulted in his capital contribution obligation) may (but shall not be obligated to) cause the LLC to deliver to such Member a notice ("Default Notice") making reference to the Member's failure to contribute capital to the LLC, and to this Section 3.01(e). If the defaulting Member fails to fund such capital contribution obligation within five business days after the date of delivery of the Default Notice, then an Event of Forfeiture shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Member, with the consequences specified in Section 3.04 below. (f) The LLC shall maintain written records indicating the amount of capital contributed by each Member to the LLC. (g) The LLC may elect to withhold from any amounts which are otherwise distributable to a Member in accordance with the terms of this Agreement any amount which such Member may be required to contribute to the LLC pursuant to this Section 3.01. In the event the LLC so withholds, for all purposes of this Agreement the Member with respect to whom the withholding occurs shall be treated as if he had -15-
been distributed such amount in accordance with Article IV hereof and then recontributed such amount pursuant to this Section 3.01. 3.02 No Additional Capital. Except as provided in this Article III, no Member shall be obligated or permitted to contribute any additional capital to the LLC. No interest shall accrue on any contributions to the capital of the LLC, and no Member shall have the right to withdraw or to be repaid any capital contributed by it or to receive any other payment in respect of its interest in the LLC, including without limitation as a result of the withdrawal or resignation of such Member from the LLC, except as specifically provided in this Agreement. 3.03 Anticipated Operations of the LLC. (a) As and when any Fund acquires an Investment, the Managing Members shall create an Investment Schedule for such Investment, which shall be attached to this Agreement. The Investment Schedule for each Investment shall reflect (a) the Fund or Funds making the acquisition, (b) the Portfolio Company issuing the securities, (c) the Acquisition Date, (d) the number and class or series of shares of such securities, (d) the purchase price and/or other consideration payable by each Fund, (e) the Investment Percentage Interest of each of the Members in such Investment (determined in the manner hereinafter provided) and (f) such other information, if any, as the Managing Members may deem appropriate. (b) The Investment Percentage Interest of the Capital Member in each Investment (including Follow-on Investments) shall at all times equal 10%. (c) (i) Subject to Sections 3.03(c)(ii) and (iii) and 3.04, the Investment Percentage Interest of each Managing Member for whom an Event of Forfeiture has not occurred shall equal 90% multiplied by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall equal such Managing Member's Percentage Interest at the beginning of the calendar quarter in which the Investment was made (the "Applicable Quarter") and the denominator of which shall equal the aggregate Percentage Interests at the beginning of the Applicable Quarter for all Managing Members exclusive of those for whom an Event of Forfeiture has occurred. The Investment Percentage Interest of each Managing Member in each Investment shall be subject to reduction upon the occurrence of an Event of Forfeiture. (ii) Notwithstanding Section 3.03(c)(i), if any Fund makes a Follow-on Investment, the Investment Percentage Interests of the Managing Members in such Follow-on Investment shall be their Investment Percentage -16-
Interests then in effect for other investments in the same Portfolio Company (except that the Investment Percentage Interest in any Follow-on Investment for any Managing Member for whom an Event of Forfeiture has occurred shall be zero). (iii) Notwithstanding Section 3.03(c)(i), Brad Garlinghouse, David J. Nerrow, Jr. and Denise W. Marks, who were admitted to the LLC as of January 11, 1999, February 3, 1999 and March 1, 1999, respectively, shall be entitled to participate in those Investments made by the Fund prior to the respective dates on which they were admitted to the LLC, and their respective Investment Percentage Interests in such investments are reflected on the Investment Schedules with respect to such Investments, and all of the Members hereby consent to such participation. 3.04 Event of Forfeiture. (a) Each Managing Member's Percentage Interest and Investment Percentage Interest in each Investment are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of an Event of Forfeiture with respect to such Managing Member, as provided in this Section 3.04. In no event shall the provisions of this Section 3.04 be applicable to the interest of the Capital Member. (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Forfeiture with respect to a Managing Member: (i) Such Managing Member's Percentage Interest in the LLC shall, from and after the date of the Event of Forfeiture, be reduced to zero, and the Percentage Interest in the LLC of all other Managing Members (exclusive of any Managing Member for whom an Event of Forfeiture has occurred) shall be increased by an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the Percentage Interest of the Managing Member for whom the Event of Forfeiture has occurred (such increase to be allocated among them in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests immediately prior to the adjustment contemplated hereby). (ii) If the Event of Forfeiture is not a Clause Z Event, such Managing Member's Investment Percentage Interest in each Investment in which such Managing Member participates shall be reduced to a Percentage determined by multiplying the Managing Member's initial Investment Percentage Interest by such Managing Member's then Vested Percentage; and, if the Event of Forfeiture is a Clause Z Event, such Managing Member's Investment -17-
Percentage Interest in each Investment in which such Managing Member participates shall be reduced to zero. The Investment Percentage Interest in each Investment of all other Managing Members (exclusive of any Managing Member for whom an Event of Forfeiture has occurred) participating in such Investment shall be increased by an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the reduction in the Investment Percentage Interest of the Managing Member for whom the Event of Forfeiture has occurred (such increase to be allocated among them in proportion to their respective Investment Percentage Interests in such Investment immediately prior to the adjustment contemplated hereby). (iii) Any amount held in any Vesting Escrow for the benefit of such Managing Member shall be forfeited. Amounts so forfeited shall (subject to the provisions of this Section 3.04 and Section 4.02), on an Investment by Investment basis, be allocated to all other Managing Members (exclusive of any Managing Member for whom an Event of Forfeiture has occurred) participating in each such Investment (such distributions to be allocated among them in proportion to their respective Investment Percentage Interests in each such Investment immediately prior to the adjustment contemplated hereby). (iv) Such Managing Member (whether Voting or Non-Voting) shall have no right to vote on or participate in any decision or matter on or in which Managing Members are entitled to vote or participate and such Managing Member shall be disregarded for all purposes in determining the number of Managing Members which constitute a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members or the number or percentage or Managing Members entitled to vote on any matter, as the case may be. (c) A Managing Member with respect to whom an Event of Forfeiture has occurred: (i) shall not be entitled to participate in any Investment acquired by the LLC (including without limitation, a Follow-on Investment) made by the LLC after the date of the Event of Forfeiture; (ii) shall not be required to make subsequent capital contributions to the LLC from and after the date of the Event of Forfeiture, except for capital contributions required pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(ii) and (iii); and (iii) shall automatically and without any action on the part of the LLC, such Managing Member or any other Member, be deemed to have withdrawn from the LLC on the first date on which the LLC no longer owns any Investment in which such Managing Member has an Investment Percentage Interest. The Voting Managing Members shall make all determinations under this Section 3.04 (including determinations as to when and whether an Event of Forfeiture has occurred, and the reduction in the Percentage Interest and Investment Percentage -18-
Interests of the affected Managing Member in connection therewith), in their reasonable discretion. (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest of Denise W. Marks shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 3.04 and such interest shall not be subject to forfeiture, reduction or modification upon the occurrence of an Event of Forfeiture with respect to Ms. Marks. ARTICLE IV DISTRIBUTIONS 4.01 Distribution of Distributable Cash and Property and Distributable Other Cash. (a) Distributable Cash and Property of the LLC shall be distributed on an Investment by Investment basis, at such times and in such amounts as the Voting Managing Members may in their reasonable discretion determine. Any non-cash distributions made to the Members shall be valued at their respective fair market values, as determined by the Voting Managing Members in good faith and in a manner consistent with the valuation procedures established in the Domestic Fund Agreement and the Foreign Fund Agreement. Distributable Other Cash shall be distributed, in such amounts as the Voting Managing Members may determine, not less frequently than quarterly, within 30 days following the last day of each fiscal quarter of the LLC. (b) Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.02 and 9.02(b)below: (i) Distributable Cash and Property related to an Investment shall be distributed to the Members in proportion to their respective Investment Percentage Interests in such Investment on the date the LLC makes such distribution; and (ii) Distributable Other Cash shall be distributed to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests on the date the LLC makes such distribution. (c) The Voting Managing Members will use reasonable efforts to cause the LLC to distribute to each Member in each year the Tax Distribution Amount (as defined below), which amount shall be treated as an advance against future distributions to such Member pursuant to Section 4.01(b) above. The Tax Distribution Amount shall equal an amount which, when added to all distributions previously made to the Member pursuant to this Section 4.01 from the inception of the LLC, equals the product of (i) the Member's allocable share of the net taxable income of the LLC -19-
computed on an aggregate cumulative basis from the inception of the LLC and (ii) the highest combined marginal rate of federal and Massachusetts state income tax applicable to individuals for any year since the inception of the LLC. Separate Tax Distribution Amounts shall be computed with respect to each Investment, and, to the extent practicable, the required distribution of the Tax Distribution Amount attributable to a particular Investment for a particular period shall be satisfied by a distribution of Distributable Cash and Property attributable to such Investment. To the extent that the required distribution of the Tax Distribution Amount attributable to a particular Investment is satisfied by a distribution of Distributable Cash and Property attributable to another Investment, rules similar to those set forth in clause (ii) of the definition of "Distributable Cash and Property" shall apply. 4.02 Vesting Escrow. (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.01 above, the LLC shall distribute to each Managing Member on the date of any distribution only that portion of any Distributable Cash and Property to which he is entitled which is equal to his Vested Percentage of such amount. Any portion of any distribution which is not distributed as a result of the operation of this Section 4.02(a) shall be held in escrow by the LLC, in accordance with this Section 4.02. Any escrow established pursuant to this Section 4.02 is herein referred to as a "Vesting Escrow." Subject to Section 3.04, on the last day of each calendar quarter following the date of the distribution with respect to any Investment, one-twentieth of the amount of the original distribution (plus a proportionate amount of interest or other amounts earned thereon, if any), shall be disbursed from such Vesting Escrow to such Managing Member. (b) The interest of the Capital Member shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 4.02, and it shall at all times be entitled to receive 100% of any distributions to Distributable Cash and Property allocable to it pursuant to and in accordance with Section 4.01. (c) Each of the Managing Members hereby agrees and acknowledges that, as a result of the operation of this Section 4.02, (i) such Managing Member may be allocated Net Profits and Net Losses of the LLC without corresponding distributions of Distributable Cash or Property; (ii) the Managing Members are authorized to and may (but shall not be required to) invest amounts that are held in a Vesting Escrow in short-term investments pending distribution of such amounts to the Managing Members; (iii) the LLC may hold in a Vesting Escrow securities which would otherwise have been distributed to such Managing Member, and the LLC shall be entitled to vote, transfer, sell, assign and exercise all rights of ownership with respect to all such securities prior -20-
to their distribution to the Managing Members in accordance with this Section 4.02; and (iv) amounts held in escrow pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be irrevocably forfeited by a Managing Member from and after the date of any Event of Forfeiture with respect to such Managing Member. If any property which is held in escrow pursuant to this Section 4.02 is sold or otherwise disposed of, the proceeds of such sale or other disposition shall be substituted in the Vesting Escrow for such property, and released in accordance with Section 4.02(a) above at the same time such property would have been released from such Vesting Escrow. (d) Upon the discontinuance of the activities of the LLC related to the funding of additional investments after the Funds have been fully invested, and with the approval of a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members, the Vested Percentage of each Managing Member shall be increased to one hundred percent (100%). (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions of Distributable Cash and Property to Denise W. Marks shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 4.02 and no portion thereof shall be required to be held in a Vesting Escrow. 4.03 Certain Payments to the Internal Revenue Service Treated as Distributions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that the LLC is required (as determined in the discretion of the Voting Managing Members), or elects, pursuant to applicable law, either (i) to pay tax (including estimated tax) on a Member's allocable share of LLC items of income or gain, whether or not distributed, or (ii) to withhold and pay over to the tax authorities any portion of a distribution otherwise distributable to a Member, the LLC may pay over such tax or such withheld amount to the tax authorities, and such amount shall be treated as a distribution to such Member at the time it is paid to the tax authorities. In the event that the amount paid (or paid over) to the tax authorities on behalf of a Member exceeds the amount that would have been distributed to such Member absent such tax obligation, such excess shall be treated as a demand loan from the LLC to such Member, which loan shall bear interest at the prime rate announced from time to time by The Wall Street Journal, until paid in full. 4.04 Distributions in Kind. A Member, regardless of the nature of his contribution to the LLC, shall have no right to demand or receive any distribution from the LLC in any form other than cash. The LLC may, at any time and from time to time, make distributions in kind to the Members. Any Member entitled to any interest in such assets shall, unless otherwise determined by the Members, receive separate assets -21-
of the LLC and not an interest as a tenant-in-common with other Members so entitled in any asset being distributed. 4.05 Distributions Upon Transfer or Admission. In the event that a Member acquires an interest in the LLC either by transfer from another Member or by acquisition from the LLC, the LLC shall close its books as of the date of the acquisition and Distributable Cash and Property and items thereof computed for the portion of the year ending on the date of the acquisition shall be distributed among the Members without regard to such acquisition, and Distributable Cash and items thereof computed for the portion of the year commencing on the day following the date of the acquisition shall be allocated among the Members taking into account such acquisition. For purposes of this Section 4.04, any modifications to a Member's Percentage Interest or Investment Percentage Interest for any Investment, shall be treated as if a Member acquired an interest in the LLC. 4.06 Right to Set Off Certain Amounts. The LLC may withhold from any amounts which are otherwise distributable to a Member in accordance with this Agreement, and pay over to @Ventures Management, LLC (the "Management Company"), any amount which such Member may owe to the Management Company pursuant to certain promissory notes made by such Member to the Management Company, which notes evidence loans made by the Management Company to such Member in order to enable such Member to satisfy its capital contribution obligations to the LLC. -22-
ARTICLE V ALLOCATION OF NET PROFITS AND NET LOSSES 5.01 Basic Allocations. (a) Net Profits and Net Losses shall be computed on an Investment by Investment basis as of the end of each fiscal year (or other relevant period). Except as provided in Section 5.02 below (which shall be applied first) and Section 5.01(b) below, Net Profits and Net Losses attributable to a particular Investment shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their respective Investment Percentage Interests in such Investment. Net Profits and Net Losses attributable to Other Cash Receipts shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests. (b) Notwithstanding Section 5.01(a) above, Net Profits and Net Losses attributable to any assets held in a Vesting Escrow shall be specially allocated to the Managing Member to whom such Vesting Escrow relates. (c) For purposes of this Article V, the amount of the Net Profits or Net Losses from any Investment (treating all sources of Other Cash Receipts as one Investment) shall be determined by allocating expenses incurred by the LLC among the Investments in the same manner that expenses are allocated pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of "Distributable Cash and Property." (d) Allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses provided for in this Section 5.01 shall generally be made as of the end of the fiscal year of the LLC; provided, however, that allocations of items of Net Profits and Net Losses described in clause (vi) of the definition of "Net Profits" and "Net Losses" shall be made at the time deemed realized as described in the definition of "Capital Account." (e) Upon admission of any Managing Member to the LLC following the date of formation of the LLC, any deduction attributable to such admission shall be allocated among the Managing Members of the LLC (determined immediately prior to the admission of such new Managing Member), in proportion to such Managing Members' respective Percentage Interests as in effect immediately prior to such admission. -23-
5.02 Regulatory Allocations. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.01 above, the following allocations of Net Profits, Net Losses and items thereof shall be made in the following order of priority: (a) Items of income or gain (computed with the adjustments contained in paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of the definition of "Net Profits and Net Losses") for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Members in the manner and to the minimum extent required by the "minimum gain chargeback" provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4). (b) All "nonrecourse deductions" (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) of the LLC for any year shall be allocated to the Members in the manner in which Net Profits and Net Losses are allocated; provided, however, that nonrecourse deductions attributable to "partner nonrecourse debt" (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(1). (c) Items of income or gain (computed with the adjustments contained in paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of the definition of "Net Profits and Net Losses") for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Members in the manner and to the extent required by the "qualified income offset" provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). (d) In no event shall Net Losses of the LLC be allocated to a Member if such allocation would cause or increase a negative balance in such Member's Capital Account (determined for purposes of this Section 5.02(d) only, by increasing the Member's Capital Account balance by (i) the amount the Member is obligated to restore to the LLC pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c) and (ii) such Member's share of "minimum gain" and of "partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain" as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5), respectively). (e) Except as otherwise provided herein or as required by Code Section 704, for tax purposes, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit shall be allocated to the Members in the same manner as are Net Profits and Net Losses; provided, however, that if the Carrying Value of any property of the LLC differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes, then items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit related to such property for tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted basis of the property for tax purposes and its Carrying Value in the manner provided for under Code Section 704(c). -24-
(f) In the event that Net Profits, Net Losses or items thereof in respect of any Investment are allocated to one or more Members pursuant to subsections (a) or (b) above, subsequent Net Profit, Net Losses or items thereof will first be allocated (subject to the provisions of subsections (a) and (b)) to the Members in a manner designed to result in each Member having been allocated an amount of Net Profits, Net Losses or items thereof attributable to each Investment as such Member would have been allocated had Section 5.02 not been contained in this Agreement. 5.03 Allocations Upon Transfer or Admission. In the event that a Member acquires an interest in the LLC either by transfer from another Member or by acquisition from the LLC, the LLC shall close its books as of the date of the acquisition and Net Profits, Net Losses and items thereof computed for the portion of the year ending on the date of the acquisition shall be allocated among the Members without regard to such acquisition, and Net Profits, Net Losses and items thereof computed for the portion of the year commencing on the day following the date of the acquisition shall be allocated among the Members taking into account such acquisition. For purposes of this Section 5.03, any modifications to a Member's Percentage Interest or Investment Percentage Interest for any Investment, shall be treated as if a Member acquired an interest in the LLC. ARTICLE VI MANAGEMENT 6.01 Management of the LLC. (a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Act, all powers shall be exercised by or under the authority of, and the business and affairs of the LLC shall be controlled by the Members.

Except to the extent specifically provided in this Agreement, the Non-Voting Managing Members shall not be entitled to vote on, consent to or approve any matter relating to the conduct of -25-
the LLC's business. The Voting Managing Members, by action of a Majority in Number thereof, may at any time and from time to time change the status of any Managing Member from Voting to Non-Voting, and vice versa. Subject to the foregoing, the Voting Managing Members shall have the exclusive right and full authority to manage, conduct and operate the LLC business. Specifically, but not by way of limitation, the Voting Managing Members (by action of such Majority in Number) shall be authorized, for and on behalf of the LLC: (i) to borrow money, to issue evidences of indebtedness and to guarantee the debts of others for whatever purposes they may specify, and, as security therefor, to pledge or otherwise encumber the assets of the LLC; (ii) to cause to be paid on or before the due date thereof all amounts due and payable by the LLC to any person or entity; (iii) to employ such agents, employees, managers, accountants, attorneys, consultants and other persons necessary or appropriate to carry out the business and affairs of the LLC, whether or not any such persons so employed are Members or are affiliated or related to any Member, and to pay such fees, expenses, salaries, wages and other compensation to such persons as the Members shall in their sole discretion determine; (iv) to pay, extend, renew, modify, adjust, submit to arbitration, prosecute, defend or compromise, upon such terms as they may determine and upon such evidence as they may deem sufficient, any obligation, suit, liability, cause of action or claim, including taxes, either in favor of or against the LLC; (v) to pay any and all fees and to make any and all expenditures which the Voting Managing Members, in their discretion, deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the organization of the LLC, and the carrying out of its obligations and responsibilities under this or any other Agreement; (vi) to invest the assets of the LLC, and to lease, sell, finance, refinance or dispose of all or any portion of the LLC's property; (vii) to cause the LLC to make or revoke any of the elections referred to in Sections 108, 704, 709, 754 or 1017 of the Code or any similar provisions enacted in lieu thereof, or in any other Section of the Code; -26-

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Voting Managing Members shall not be authorized to take any of the following actions without the prior approval of the Capital Member: -27-
(i) to do any act that is in contravention of this Agreement or that is not consistent with the purposes of the LLC; (ii) to do any act that would make it impossible to carry on the ordinary business of the LLC; (iii) to guarantee the obligations of any Portfolio Company; or (iv) to take any other action which requires the consent of the Capital Member pursuant to this Agreement. Other than as set forth in this Section 6.01(c), the Capital Member shall not participate in the management or control of the LLC and shall have no authority to act for or bind the LLC. (d) Any Managing Member is authorized to execute, deliver and file on behalf of the LLC any documents to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The signature of one Managing Member on any agreement, contract, instrument or other document shall be sufficient to bind the LLC in respect thereof and conclusively evidence the authority of such Managing Member and the LLC with respect thereto, and no third party need look to any other evidence or require the joinder or consent of any other party. (e) Each Managing Member is authorized to use the title "Managing Director" when acting on behalf of the LLC in the conduct of the LLC's business. (f) The Voting Managing Members, by action of a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members exclusive of the Managing Member as to whom the determination is being made, shall determine whether or not "Cause" is present in connection with the termination of the relationship of a Managing Member with the LLC. A Managing Member's relationship with the LLC may be terminated for Cause only after a hearing to consider the matter. Any such hearing shall be held only after written notice has been given to all Members, including the Managing Member proposed to be terminated. Such notice must be given not less than 10 days prior to such hearing, and must specify the time and place at which the hearing will be held, and a general statement of the nature of the charges against the Managing Member proposed to be terminated. At such hearing, the Managing Member proposed to be terminated will have an opportunity to respond to the charges constituting Cause. None of the Members (including the Managing Member proposed to be terminated), -28-
may be represented at such hearing by counsel or other representatives. At the time any such notice is given, or any time thereafter, but prior to a decision of a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members following the hearing, a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members (exclusive of the Member proposed to be terminated) may immediately relieve the Managing Member proposed to be terminated of his or her duties and responsibilities hereunder pending a decision. 6.02 Tax Matters Partner. Andrew J. Hajducky, III shall be the tax matters partner for the LLC pursuant to Code Sections 6221 through 6231. 6.03 Liability of the Members; Indemnification. (a) No Member shall be liable to the LLC or any other Member for any act or omission taken by the Member in good faith and in the belief that such act or omission is in the best interests of the LLC; provided that such act or omission is not in violation of this Agreement and does not constitute negligence, misconduct, fraud or a willful violation of law by the Member. No Member shall be liable to the LLC or any other Member for any action taken by any other Member, nor shall any Member (in the absence of negligence, misconduct, fraud or a willful violation of law by the Member) be liable to the LLC or any other Member for any action of any employee or agent of the LLC provided that the Member shall have exercised appropriate care in the selection and supervision of such employee or agent. -29-
(b) Each Member and its respective partners, agents, employees and Affiliates (the "Indemnitees") shall be and hereby are (i) indemnified and held harmless by the LLC and (ii) released by the other Members from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs, expenses, damages, losses, suits, proceedings and actions for which such Indemnitee has not otherwise been reimbursed (collectively, "Liabilities"), whether judicial, administrative, investigative or otherwise, of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, that may accrue to the LLC or any other Member or in which any of the Indemnitees may become involved, as a party or otherwise, arising out of the conduct of the business or affairs of the LLC by the respective Indemnitee or otherwise relating to this Agreement, provided that an Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification or release hereunder if it shall have been determined by (i) in the case of the Capital Member or an Indemnitee claiming by or through the Capital Member, a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) in the case of any Managing Member or an Indemnitee claiming by or through the Managing Member, by the Capital Member, that (x) such person did not act in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the LLC and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, did not have reasonable cause to believe that its conduct was lawful, or (y) such Liabilities shall have arisen from a violation of this Agreement or the negligence, misconduct, fraud or willful violation of law by such Indemnitee, or actions of such Indemnitee outside the scope of and unauthorized by this Agreement, and provided further that an Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder with respect to any liability arising in connection with its activities performed for or on behalf of any Portfolio Company, the securities of which have been sold or have been distributed to the Members pursuant to Article IV, if such activities were performed after the date on which such securities were sold or distributed. The termination of any proceeding by settlement shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner that such person reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the LLC or that the Indemnitee did not have reasonable cause to believe that its conduct was lawful. The indemnification rights provided for in this Section 6.03 shall survive the termination of the LLC or this Agreement. Expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defense or settlement of any claim that may be subject to a right of indemnification hereunder may be advanced by the LLC prior to the final disposition thereof provided that the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the claim relates to the performance of duties or services by the Indemnitee on behalf of the LLC and (ii) the Indemnitee undertakes to repay the advanced funds to the LLC if it is ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder or under applicable law. The right of any Indemnitee to indemnification provided herein shall be cumulative of, and in addition to, any and all -30-
rights to which such Indemnitee may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law or equity and shall extend to such Indemnitee's successors, assigns and legal representatives. The obligations of the Members under this Section 6.03(b) shall be satisfied only after any applicable insurance proceeds have been exhausted and then only out of LLC assets and, to the extent required by law, distributions made by the LLC to the Members, and the Members shall have no liability to fund any indemnification payment hereunder. 6.04 Liability of Members. The liability of the Members for the losses, debts and obligations of the LLC shall be limited to their capital contributions; provided, however, that under applicable law, the Members may under certain circumstances be liable to the LLC to the extent of previous distributions made to them in the event that the LLC does not have sufficient assets to discharge its liabilities. 6.05 Certain Fees and Expenses. All out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by any Member in connection with the LLC's business (including an allocable share of certain overhead and similar expenses of the Capital Member) shall be paid by the LLC or reimbursed to the Member by the LLC. 6.06 Other Activities. (a) Subject to Sections 6.06(b) and Section 6.07 below, the Members and their respective Affiliates may engage in and possess interests in other business ventures and investment opportunities of every kind and description, independently or with others, including serving as directors, officers, stockholders, managers, members and general or limited partners of corporations, partnerships or other limited liability companies with purposes similar to or the same as those of the LLC. Neither the LLC nor any other Member shall have any rights in or to such ventures or opportunities or the income or profits therefrom. (b) Each Managing Member agrees that (I) during his or her employment by the Employer, and (II) while he or she holds any interest in the LLC, and (III) for a period of three (3) years following termination of his or her employment relationship with the Employer if such employment is terminated: (A) by the Managing Member voluntarily, or (B) by the Employer for Cause, such Managing Member will not, directly or indirectly: (x) recruit, solicit or induce, or attempt to induce, any employee or consultant of the Employer or of any Portfolio Company or of any Affiliate of any of them to terminate his or her employment with, or otherwise cease any -31-
relationship with, the Employer or any Portfolio Company or any Affiliate of any of them; or (y) solicit, divert, take away, or attempt to divert or take away, any investment opportunity with respect to any Portfolio Company or any investment opportunity with respect to any prospective investment or prospective portfolio company which the Employer contacted or solicited during such Managing Member's employment relationship with the Employer. If any restriction set forth herein is found by any court to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of time, or over too great a range of activities, or over too broad a geographic area, the restriction shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, range of activities, or geographic area which the court finds to be enforceable. Each Managing Member acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions contained in this Section 6.06(b) are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of the Employer, the Portfolio Companies and the Affiliates of any of them and are considered by such Managing Member to be reasonable for such purpose and that his or her interest in the LLC is being received partly in consideration for the foregoing covenant. 6.07 Commitment of Members. Each of the Managing Members hereby agrees to use its best efforts in connection with the purposes and objectives of the LLC and to devote to such purposes and objectives such of its time and resources as shall be necessary for the management of the affairs of the LLC. 6.08 Conflicts of Interest. No contract or transaction between the LLC and one or more of its Members or Affiliates, or between the LLC and any other corporation, partnership association or other organization in which one or more of its Members or Affiliates are directors, officers, members, managers or partners or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for such reason, or solely because the Member or Affiliate is present at or participates in any meeting of Managing Members which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his, her or its votes are counted for such purpose, if: (i) the material facts as to his, her or its interest as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Voting Managing Members and the Voting Managing Members authorize the contract or transaction by a vote sufficient for such purpose without counting the vote of any interested Voting Managing Member even though the disinterested Voting -32-
Managing Members may be less than a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members entitled to vote thereon; or (ii) the material facts as to his, her or its interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Voting Managing Members entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved by a vote of the Voting Managing Members; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair to the LLC or its Affiliates as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Voting Managing Members. ARTICLE VII BOOKS, RECORDS AND BANK ACCOUNTS 7.01 Books and Records. The Managing Members shall keep or cause to be kept just and true books of account with respect to the operations of the LLC. Such books shall be maintained at the LLC's principal place of business, or at such other place as the Members shall determine, and all Members, and their duly authorized representatives, shall at all reasonable times have access to such books as well as any information required to be made available to the Members under the Act. The Managing Members shall not be required to deliver or mail copies of the LLC's Certificate of Formation or copies of certificates of amendment thereto or cancellation thereof to the Members, although such documents shall be available for review and/or copying by the Members at the LLC's principal place of business. 7.02 Accounting Basis and Fiscal Year. The LLC's books shall be kept on the accrual method of accounting, or on such other method of accounting as the Members may from time to time determine, and shall be closed and balanced at the end of each fiscal year of the LLC. The fiscal year of the LLC shall be the calendar year. 7.03 Bank Accounts. The Managing Members shall be responsible for causing one or more accounts to be maintained in a bank (or banks), which accounts shall be used for the payment of the expenditures incurred by the Managing Members in connection with the business of the LLC, and in which shall be deposited any and all cash receipts of the LLC. All deposits and funds not needed for the operations of the LLC may be invested in such short-term investments as the Managing Members may determine. All such amounts shall be and remain the property of the LLC, and shall be -33-
received, held and disbursed by the Managing Members for the purposes specified in this Agreement. There shall not be deposited in any of said accounts any funds other than funds belonging to the LLC, and no other funds shall in any way be commingled with such funds. 7.04 Reports to Members. Within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Managing Members shall cause the LLC to furnish to each Member (i) such information as may be needed to enable the Members to file their federal income tax returns and any required state income tax returns, and (ii) an audited balance sheet of the LLC as of the last day of such fiscal year, and audited financial statements of the LLC for such fiscal year. The cost of such reporting shall be paid by the LLC as a LLC expense. Any Member may, at any time, at its own expense, cause an audit of the LLC books to be made by a certified public accountant of its own selection. All expenses incurred by such accountant shall be borne by such Member. ARTICLE VIII TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS 8.01 Substitution and Assignment of Member's Interest. (a) Subject to Section 8.01(b) below, no Managing Member may sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its interest in the LLC (whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law), unless (i) the Capital Member and (ii) a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members (exclusive of the transferor) shall have previously consented to such transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or disposition in writing, the granting or denying of which consent shall be in such Members' absolute discretion. The provisions of this Section 8.01(a) shall not be applicable to any assignment of the interest of a Managing Member to a Permitted Transferee (provided that no such Permitted Transferee may be admitted to the LLC as a substitute Member except as provided in Section 8.01(c) below). Subject to Section 8.01(b) below, the Capital Member may sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its interest in the LLC without the consent or approval of any other Member, provided that the transferee of any such interest may not be admitted to the LLC as a substitute Member except as provided in Section 8.01(c) below. (b) No assignment of the interest of a Member shall be made if, in the opinion of counsel to the LLC, such assignment (i) may not be effected without -34-
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (ii) would result in the violation of any applicable state securities laws, (iii) would result in a termination of the LLC under Section 708 of the Code, unless such a transfer is consented to by (i) the Capital Member and (ii) a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members, (iv) would result in the treatment of the LLC as an association taxable as a corporation or as a "publicly-traded limited partnership" for tax purposes, unless such a transfer is consented to by all Members or (v) would require the LLC or any Fund to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or as an investment advisor under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, as amended. The LLC shall not be required to recognize any assignment until the instrument conveying such interest has been delivered to the LLC for recordation on the books of the LLC. Unless an assignee becomes a substituted Member in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.01(c), it shall not be entitled to any of the rights granted to a Member hereunder, other than the right to receive all or part of the share of the Net Profits, Net Losses, distributions of cash or property or returns of capital to which his assignor would otherwise be entitled. (c) An assignee of the interest of a Member, or any portion thereof, shall become a substituted Member entitled to all the rights of a Member if, and only if: (i) the assignor gives the assignee such right; (ii) in the case of an assignee of a Managing Member, the Capital Member and a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members (exclusive of the assignor) consent to such substitution, the granting or denying of which consent shall be in the other Members' absolute discretion; (iii) in the case of an assignee of the Capital Member, a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members consent to such substitution, the granting or denying of which consent shall be in the Voting Managing Members' absolute discretion, except that, in the case of a transfer all or substantially all of the business or assets of CMGI (by sale of assets, sale of stock, merger or otherwise), including its indirect interest in the LLC, no such consent of the Voting Managing Members shall be required; (iv) the assignee or the assignor pays to the LLC all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such substitution, including specifically, without limitation, costs incurred in the review and processing of the assignment and in amending this Agreement; and -35-
(v) the assignee executes and delivers such instruments, in form and substance satisfactory to the LLC, as may be necessary or desirable to effect such substitution and to confirm the agreement of the assignee to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Unless a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members (exclusive of the assignor) otherwise approve, any assignee of the interest of a Voting Managing Member who becomes a substitute Managing Member shall be and become a Voting Managing Member, and any assignee of the interest of a Non-Voting Managing Member who becomes a substitute Managing Member shall be and become a Non-Voting Managing Member. (d) The LLC and the Members shall be entitled to treat the record owner of any interest in the LLC as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions of cash or other property made in good faith to such owner until such time as a written assignment of such interest has been received and accepted by the Managing Members and recorded on the books of the LLC. The Managing Members may refuse to accept an assignment until the end of the next successive quarterly accounting period. In no event shall any interest in the LLC, or any portion thereof, be sold, transferred or assigned to a minor or incompetent, and any such attempted sale, transfer or assignment shall be void and ineffectual and shall not bind the LLC. (e) If a Member who is an individual dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges him to be incompetent to manage his person or his property, the Member's executor, administrator, guardian, conservator or other legal representative may exercise all of the Member's rights hereunder, but solely for the purpose of settling his estate or administering his property, and in no event shall such executor, administrator, guardian, conservator or legal representative participate in any way in the conduct of the business of the LLC, or in the making of any decision or the taking of any action provided for hereunder (including without limitation, Section 6.01(a) or (b)) for any other purpose. If a Member is a corporation, trust or other entity, and is dissolved or terminated, the powers of that Member may be exercised by its legal representative or successor. 8.02 Additional Members. (a) Except as provided in Section 8.01, additional Members may be admitted to the LLC only upon the written consent of the Capital Member and a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members. Any such consent shall specify -36-
(i) the capital contribution, if any, and the Percentage Interest of the additional Member, (ii) whether such Managing Member is a Voting or Non-Voting Managing Member and (iii) any other rights and obligations of such additional Member. Such approval shall bind all Members. In connection with any such admission of an additional Member, this Agreement (including Schedules A and B) shall be amended to reflect the additional Member, its capital contribution, if any, its Percentage Interest, its Vesting Commencement Date, and any other rights and obligations of the additional Member. In connection with any such admission of an additional Member, the Percentage Interest or other rights and interests of the Capital Member in the LLC may not be diluted or otherwise modified or adjusted without the specific written consent of the Capital Member. (b) Unless all Voting Managing Members (exclusive of those with respect to whom an Event of Forfeiture has occurred) otherwise agree, in connection with the admission of any additional Managing Member to the LLC, the Percentage Interests of all Managing Members shall be diluted proportionately based on their respective Percentage Interests immediately prior to any such admission. (c) Each Managing Member, and each person who is hereinafter admitted to the LLC as a Managing Member, hereby (i) consents to the admission to the LLC of any such third party on such terms as may be approved by the Members in accordance with this Section 8.02, and to any amendment to this Agreement which may be necessary or appropriate to reflect the admission of any such third party and the terms of its interest in the LLC, and (ii) acknowledges that, in connection with any admission of any such person, such Member's interest in allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses and distributions of cash and property of the LLC, and net proceeds upon liquidation of the LLC, may be diluted or otherwise altered (subject to the provisions of this Section 8.02). Any amendment to this Agreement which shall be made in order to effectuate the provisions of this Section 8.02 shall be executed by the Capital Member and a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members, and any such amendment shall be binding upon all of the Members. 8.03 Reallocation of Percentage Interests. The Voting Managing Members, by action of a Majority in Number thereof, may not later than 10 business days following the commencement of any fiscal year, elect to modify the respective Percentage Interests of the Managing Members. Any such determination to modify the Percentage Interests of the Managing Members shall be made based on the respective professional and managerial contribution and anticipated contribution to the business of the LLC of the Managing Members, and any such determination shall take effect as of the first day of such fiscal year, and shall not otherwise have any retroactive effect. In no event shall -37-
the Percentage Interest of the Capital Member be modified or adjusted as a result of this Section 8.03. In connection with any such adjustment, Schedule B shall be amended accordingly, and all Members shall be bound by the determination of a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members. ARTICLE IX DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION 9.01 Events of Dissolution. (a) The LLC shall be dissolved: (i) on a date designated in writing by (A) the Capital Member and (B) a Majority in Number of the Voting Managing Members; (ii) following the dissolution (following which the business is not continued) of the last to dissolve of the Funds, and the liquidation of all of assets of the Funds and the winding up of their respective businesses; (iii) upon the sale or other disposition of all of the LLC's assets; or (iv) upon the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18-802 of the Act. (b) Dissolution of the LLC shall be effective on the day on which the event occurs giving rise to the dissolution, but the LLC shall not terminate until the LLC's Certificate of Formation shall have been cancelled and the assets of the LLC shall have been distributed as provided herein. Notwithstanding the dissolution of the LLC, prior to the termination of the LLC, as aforesaid, the business of the LLC and the affairs of the Members, as such, shall continue to be governed by this Agreement. A liquidator appointed by the Voting Managing Members (who may be a Member), shall liquidate the assets of the LLC, and distribute the proceeds thereof as contemplated by this Agreement and cause the cancellation of the LLC's Certificate of Formation. -38-
9.02 Distributions Upon Liquidation.

In connection with any such call, the Class B Members shall provide to each Member notice of a call for capital (which notice may be given in writing or by electronic mail), which notice shall specify the aggregate amount called for by the LLC, a general statement of the purposes for which such capital call is being made, each Member's share of the total amount called for, and the date on which the capital contribution is due (which shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, be not less than 10 days after the date of the notice). (e) The LLC shall maintain written records indicating the amount of capital contributed by each Member to the LLC. (f) The LLC may elect to withhold from any amounts which are otherwise distributable to a Member in accordance with the terms of this Agreement any amount which such Member may be required to contribute to the LLC pursuant to this Section 3.01. In addition, the LLC may withhold from any amounts which are otherwise distributable to a Member in accordance with this 8
Agreement, and pay over to the Management Company, any amount which such Member may owe to the Management Company pursuant to certain promissory notes made by such Member to the Management Company, which notes evidence loans made by the Management Company to such Member in order to enable such Member to satisfy its capital contribution obligations to the LLC. 3.02 No Additional Capital. Except as provided in this Article III, no Member shall be obligated or permitted to contribute any additional capital to the LLC. No interest shall accrue on any contributions to the capital of the LLC, and no Member shall have the right to withdraw or to be repaid any capital contributed by it or to receive any other payment in respect of its interest in the LLC, including without limitation as a result of the withdrawal or resignation of such Member from the LLC, except as specifically provided in this Agreement. 3.03 Anticipated Operations of the LLC. (a) As and when any Fund determines to make an investment (other than a short-term investment), the LLC shall make an Investment in the same issuer, in the amounts and on the terms described in Section 2.03. In connection therewith, the Class B Members shall call for capital in accordance with Section 3.01(b), and after such capital contributions are made, the Class B Members shall create an Investment Schedule for such Investment, which shall be attached to this Agreement. The Investment Schedule for each Investment shall reflect (a) the Portfolio Company issuing the securities, (b) the acquisition date, (c) the number and class or series of shares of such securities, (d) the purchase price and/or other consideration payable by the LLC therefor, (e) the Investment Percentage Interest of each of Participating Member in such Investment (determined in the manner hereinafter provided) and (f) such other information, if any, as the Class B Members may deem appropriate. (b) The Investment Percentage Interest of each Member in each Investment shall equal the amount of the capital contribution made by such Participating Member to the LLC to enable the LLC to acquire such Investment divided by the aggregate amount of the capital contributions made by all Members to the LLC to enable the LLC to acquire such Investment. 3.04 Separation Event. (a) Upon the occurrence of a Separation Event with respect to any member: (i) Such Member's Percentage Interest in the LLC shall, from and after the date of the Separation Event, be reduced to zero, and the Percentage Interest in the LLC of all Class B Members (exclusive of any Class B Member for whom a Separation Event has occurred) shall be increased by an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the Percentage Interest of the Member for whom the Separation Event has occurred (such increase to be allocated among them in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests immediately prior to the adjustment contemplated hereby). (ii) Such Member shall not be entitled to participate in any Investment made by the LLC from and after the date of the Separation Event. (iii) Such Member, if a Class B Member, shall have no right to vote on or participate in any decision or matter on or in which Class B Members are entitled to vote or participate and such Class B Member shall be disregarded for all purposes in determining the number of Class B Members which constitute a Majority in Number of the Class B Members. (iv) Such Member shall not be required to make any capital contributions to the LLC from and after the date of the Separation Event. 9
(v) Such Member shall automatically and without any action on the part of the LLC, such Member or any other Member, be deemed to have withdrawn from the LLC on the first date on which the LLC no longer owns any Investment in which such Member has an Investment Percentage Interest. The Class B Members shall make all determinations under this Section 3.04 (including determinations as to when and whether a Separation Event has occurred, and the adjustment of the Percentage Interests of the Members in connection therewith), in their reasonable discretion. (b) Schedules A and B shall be amended as required to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.04(b), any such amendments to be approved by a Majority in Number of the Class B Members and attached to this Agreement. ARTICLE IV DISTRIBUTIONS 4.01 Distribution of Distributable Cash and Property and Distributable Other Cash. (a) Distributable Cash and Property of the LLC shall be distributed on an Investment by Investment basis, at such times and in such amounts as the Class B Members may in their reasonable discretion determine. Any non-cash distributions made to the Members shall be valued at their respective fair market values, as determined by the Class B Members in good faith and in a manner consistent with the valuation procedures established in the Domestic Fund Agreement and the Foreign Fund Agreement. Distributable Other Cash shall be distributed, in such amounts as the Class B Members may determine, not less frequently than quarterly, within 30 days following the last day of each fiscal quarter of the LLC. (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 9.02(b) below: (i) Distributable Cash and Property related to an Investment shall be distributed to the Members in proportion to their respective Investment Percentage Interests in such Investment; and (ii) Distributable Other Cash shall be distributed to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests on the date the LLC makes such distribution. (c) The Class B Members will use reasonable efforts to cause the LLC to distribute to each Member in each year the Tax Distribution Amount (as defined below), which amount shall be treated as an advance against future distributions to such Member pursuant to Section 4.01(b) above. The Tax Distribution Amount shall equal an amount which, when added to all distributions previously made to the Member pursuant to this Section 4.01 from the inception of the LLC, equals the product of (i) the Member's allocable share of the net taxable income of the LLC computed on an aggregate cumulative basis from the inception of the LLC and (ii) the highest combined marginal rate of federal and Massachusetts state income tax applicable to individuals for any year since the inception of the LLC. Separate Tax Distribution Amounts shall be computed with respect to each Investment, and, to the extent practicable, the required distribution of the Tax Distribution Amount attributable to a particular Investment for a particular period shall be satisfied by a distribution of Distributable Cash and Property attributable to such Investment. To the extent that the required distribution of the Tax Distribution Amount attributable to a particular Investment is satisfied by a distribution of Distributable Cash and Property attributable to another Investment, rules similar to those set forth in the parenthetical in clause (i) and clause (ii) of the definition of "Distributable Cash and Property" shall apply. 10
4.02 Certain Payments to the Internal Revenue Service Treated as Distributions. (a) For purposes of this Section 4.03, the Class B Members may assume that any Member who fails to provide to the LLC satisfactory evidence of its tax status for United States federal income tax purposes is a foreign person taxable as corporation. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that the LLC is required, or elects, pursuant to applicable law, either (i) to pay tax (including estimated tax) on a Member's allocable share of LLC items of income or gain, whether or not distributed, or (ii) to withhold and pay over to the tax authorities any portion of a distribution otherwise distributable to a Member, the LLC may pay over such tax or such withheld amount to the tax authorities, and such amount shall be treated as a distribution to such Member at the time it is paid to the tax authorities. In the event that the amount paid (or paid over) to the tax authorities on behalf of any Member exceeds the amount which would have been distributed to such Member absent such tax obligation, such excess shall be treated as a demand loan from the LLC to such Member, which loan shall bear interest at the prime rate announced from time to time by The Wall Street Journal, until paid in full. 4.03 Distributions in Kind. A Member, regardless of the nature of his contribution to the LLC, shall have no right to demand or receive any distribution from the LLC in any form other than cash. The LLC may, at any time and from time to time, make distributions in kind to the Members. Any Member entitled to any interest in such assets shall, unless otherwise determined by the Members, receive separate assets of the LLC and not an interest as a tenant-in-common with other Members so entitled in any asset being distributed. ARTICLE V ALLOCATION OF NET PROFITS AND NET LOSSES 5.01 Basic Allocations. (a) Net Profits and Net Losses shall be computed on an Investment by Investment basis as of the end of each fiscal year (or other relevant period). Except as provided in Section 5.02 below (which shall be applied first), Net Profits and Net Losses attributable to a particular Investment shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their respective Investment Percentage Interests in such Investment. Net Profits and Net Losses attributable to Other Cash Receipts shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests. (b) For purposes of this Article V, the amount of the Net Profits or Net Losses from any Investment (treating all sources of Other Cash Receipts as one Investment) shall be determined by allocating expenses incurred by the LLC among the Investments in the same manner that expenses are allocated pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of "Distributable Cash and Property." (c) Allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses provided for in this Section 5.01 shall generally be made as of the end of the fiscal year of the LLC; provided, however, that allocations of items of Net Profits and Net Losses described in clause (v) of the definition of "Net Profits" and "Net Losses" shall be made at the time deemed realized as described in the definition of "Capital Account." 5.02 Regulatory Allocations. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.01 above, the following allocations of Net Profits, Net Losses and items thereof shall be made in the following order of priority: 11
(a) Items of income or gain (computed with the adjustments contained in paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of the definition of "Net Profits and Net Losses") for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Members in the manner and to the minimum extent required by the "minimum gain chargeback" provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4). (b) All "nonrecourse deductions" (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) of the LLC for any year shall be allocated to the Members in the manner in which Net Profits and Net Losses are allocated; provided, however, that nonrecourse deductions attributable to "partner nonrecourse debt" (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(1). (c) Items of income or gain (computed with the adjustments contained in paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of the definition of "Net Profits and Net Losses") for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Members in the manner and to the extent required by the "qualified income offset" provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). (d) In no event shall Net Losses of the LLC be allocated to a Member if such allocation would cause or increase a negative balance in such Member's Capital Account (determined for purposes of this Section 5.02(d) only, by increasing the Member's Capital Account balance by (i) the amount the Member is obligated to restore to the LLC pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c) and (ii) such Member's share of "minimum gain" and of "partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain" as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5), respectively). (e) Except as otherwise provided herein or as required by Code Section 704, for tax purposes, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit shall be allocated to the Members in the same manner as are Net Profits and Net Losses; provided, however, that if the Carrying Value of any property of the LLC differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes, then items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit related to such property for tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted basis of the property for tax purposes and its Carrying Value in the manner provided for under Code Section 704(c). (f) In the event that Net Profits, Net Losses or items thereof in respect of any Investment are allocated to one or more Members pursuant to subsections (a) through (d) above, subsequent Net Profit, Net Losses or items thereof will first be allocated (subject to the provisions of subsections (a) through (d)) to the Members in a manner designed to result in each Member having been allocated an amount of Net Profits, Net Losses or items thereof attributable to each Investment as such Member would have been allocated had Section 5.02 not been contained in this Agreement. ARTICLE VI MANAGEMENT 6.01 Management of the LLC. (a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Act, all powers shall be exercised by or under the authority of, and the business and affairs of the LLC shall be controlled by the Members. (b) Except to the extent that this Agreement specifically provides for a higher or lower number or percentage of Members, all decisions respecting any matter set forth herein or otherwise affecting or arising out of the conduct of the business of the LLC shall be made by action of a Majority in Number of the Class B Members; provided that, Class B Members with respect to whom a Separation Event has occurred shall have no right to vote on or participate in any matter or decision to be made by 12
the Class B Members and shall be disregarded for all purposes in determining the number of Class B Members which constitute a Majority in Number of the Class B Members. Subject to the foregoing, the Class B Members shall have the exclusive right and full authority to manage, conduct and operate the LLC business. Specifically, but not by way of limitation, the Class B Members (by action of such Majority in Number) shall be authorized, for and on behalf of the LLC: (i) to borrow money, to issue evidences of indebtedness and to guarantee the debts of others for whatever purposes they may specify, and, as security therefor, to pledge or otherwise encumber the assets of the LLC; (ii) to cause to be paid on or before the due date thereof all amounts due and payable by the LLC to any person or entity; (iii) to employ such agents, employees, managers, accountants, attorneys, consultants and other persons necessary or appropriate to carry out the business and affairs of the LLC, whether or not any such persons so employed are Members or are affiliated or related to any Member, and to pay such fees, expenses, salaries, wages and other compensation to such persons as the Members shall in their sole discretion determine; (iv) to pay, extend, renew, modify, adjust, submit to arbitration, prosecute, defend or compromise, upon such terms as they may determine and upon such evidence as they may deem sufficient, any obligation, suit, liability, cause of action or claim, including taxes, either in favor of or against the LLC; (v) to pay any and all fees and to make any and all expenditures which the Class B Members, in their discretion, deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the organization of the LLC, and the carrying out of its obligations and responsibilities under this or any other Agreement; (vi) to invest the assets of the LLC, and to lease, sell, finance, refinance or dispose of all or any portion of the LLC's property; (vii) to cause the LLC to make or revoke any of the elections referred to in Sections 108, 704, 709, 754 or 1017 of the Code or any similar provisions enacted in lieu thereof, or in any other Section of the Code; (viii) to establish and maintain reserves for such purposes and in such amounts as they deem appropriate from time to time; (ix) to pay all organizational expenses and general and administrative expenses of the LLC; (x) to deal with, or otherwise engage in business with, or provide services to and receive compensation therefor from, any person who has provided or may in the future provide any services to, lend money to, sell property to, or purchase property from the LLC, including without limitation, a Member; (xi) to engage in any kind of activity and to perform and carry out contracts of any kind necessary to, or in connection with, or incidental to the accomplishment of the purposes of the LLC; 13
(xii) to compromise the obligation of a Member to make a contribution to the capital of the LLC or to return to the LLC money or other property paid or distributed to such Member in violation of this Agreement or the Act; (xiii) to cause to be paid any and all taxes, charges and assessments that may be levied, assessed or imposed upon any of the assets of the LLC, unless the same are contested by the Class B Members; and (xiv) to exercise all powers and authority granted by the Act to members, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. (d) Any Class B Member is authorized to execute, deliver and file on behalf of the LLC any documents to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The signature of one Class B Member on any agreement, contract, instrument or other document shall be sufficient to bind the LLC in respect thereof and conclusively evidence the authority of such Class B Member and the LLC with respect thereto, and no third party need look to any other evidence or require the joinder or consent of any other party. (e) Each Class B Member is authorized to use the title "Managing Director" when acting on behalf of the LLC in the conduct of the LLC's business. (f) No Class A Member, in his or her capacity as such, shall be authorized to act for or on behalf of or to bind the LLC. 6.02 Tax Matters Partner. Andrew J. Hajducky, III shall be the tax matters partner for the LLC pursuant to Code Sections 6221 through 6231. 6.03 Liability of the Members; Indemnification. (a) No Member shall be liable to the LLC or any other Member for any act or omission taken by the Member in good faith and in the belief that such act or omission is in the best interests of the LLC; provided that such act or omission is not in violation of this Agreement and does not constitute negligence, misconduct, fraud or a willful violation of law by the Member. No Member shall be liable to the LLC or any other Member for any action taken by any other Member, nor shall any Member (in the absence of negligence, misconduct, fraud or a willful violation of law by the Member) be liable to the LLC or any other Member for any action of any employee or agent of the LLC provided that the Member shall have exercised appropriate care in the selection and supervision of such employee or agent. 14
(b) Each Member and its respective partners, agents, employees and Affiliates (the "Indemnitees") shall be and hereby are (i) indemnified and held harmless by the LLC and (ii) released by the other Members from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs, expenses, damages, losses, suits, proceedings and actions for which such Indemnitee has not otherwise been reimbursed (collectively, "Liabilities"), whether judicial, administrative, investigative or otherwise, of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, that may accrue to the LLC or any other Member or in which any of the Indemnitees may become involved, as a party or otherwise, arising out of the conduct of the business or affairs of the LLC by the respective Indemnitee or otherwise relating to this Agreement, provided that an Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification or release hereunder if it shall have been determined by a Majority in Number of the Class B Members that (x) such person did not act in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the LLC and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, did not have reasonable cause to believe that its conduct was lawful, or (y) such Liabilities shall have arisen from a violation of this Agreement or the negligence, misconduct, fraud or willful violation of law by such Indemnitee, or actions of such Indemnitee outside the scope of and unauthorized by this Agreement, and provided further that an Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder with respect to any liability arising in connection with its activities performed for or on behalf of any Portfolio Company, the securities of which have been sold or have been distributed to the Members pursuant to Article IV, if such activities were performed after the date on which such securities were sold or distributed. The termination of any proceeding by settlement shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner that such person reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the LLC or that the Indemnitee did not have reasonable cause to believe that its conduct was lawful. The indemnification rights provided for in this Section 6.03 shall survive the termination of the LLC and this Agreement. Expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defense or settlement of any claim that may be subject to a right of indemnification hereunder may be advanced by the LLC prior to the final disposition thereof provided that the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the claim relates to the performance of duties or services by the Indemnitee on behalf of the LLC and (ii) the Indemnitee undertakes to repay the advanced funds to the LLC if it is ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder or under applicable law. The right of any Indemnitee to indemnification provided herein shall be cumulative of, and in addition to, any and all rights to which such Indemnitee may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law or equity and shall extend to such Indemnitee's successors, assigns and legal representatives. The obligations of the Members under this Section 6.03(b) shall be satisfied only after any applicable insurance proceeds have been exhausted and then only out of LLC assets and, to the extent required by law, distributions made by the LLC to the Members, and the Members shall have no liability to fund any indemnification payment hereunder. 6.04 Liability of Members. The liability of the Members for the losses, debts and obligations of the LLC shall be limited to their capital contributions; provided, however, that under applicable law, the Members may under certain circumstances be liable to the LLC to the extent of previous distributions made to them in the event that the LLC does not have sufficient assets to discharge its liabilities. 6.05 Certain Fees and Expenses. All out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by any Member in connection with the LLC's business (other than overhead and similar expenses of any Member) shall be paid by the LLC or reimbursed to the Member by the LLC. 15
6.06 Other Activities. (a) Subject to Section 6.06(b) below, the Members and their respective Affiliates may engage in and possess interests in other business ventures and investment opportunities of every kind and description, independently or with others, including serving as directors, officers, stockholders, managers, members and general or limited partners of corporations, partnerships or other limited liability companies with purposes similar to or the same as those of the LLC. Neither the LLC nor any other Member shall have any rights in or to such ventures or opportunities or the income or profits therefrom. (b) Each Member agrees that (I) during his or her employment by the Employer, and (II) while he or she holds any interest in the LLC, such Member will not, directly or indirectly: (x) recruit, solicit or induce, or attempt to induce, any employee or consultant of the Employer or of any Portfolio Company or of any Affiliate of any of them to terminate his or her employment with, or otherwise cease any relationship with, the Employer or any Portfolio Company or any Affiliate of any of them; or (y) solicit, divert, take away, or attempt to divert or take away, any investment opportunity with respect to any Portfolio Company or any investment opportunity with respect to any prospective investment or prospective portfolio company which the Employer contacted or solicited during such Member's employment relationship with the Employer. If any restriction set forth herein is found by any court to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of time, or over too great a range of activities, or over too broad a geographic area, the restriction shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, range of activities, or geographic area which the court finds to be enforceable. Each Member acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions contained in this Section 6.06(b) are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of the Employer, the Portfolio Companies and the Affiliates of any of them and are considered by such Member to be reasonable for such purpose and that his or her interest in the LLC is being received partly in consideration for the foregoing covenant. ARTICLE VII BOOKS, RECORDS AND BANK ACCOUNTS 7.01 Books and Records. The Class B Members shall keep or cause to be kept just and true books of account with respect to the operations of the LLC. Such books shall be maintained at the LLC's principal place of business, or at such other place as the Members shall determine, and all Members, and their duly authorized representatives, shall at all reasonable times have access to such books as well as any information required to be made available to the Members under the Act. The Class B Members shall not be required to deliver or mail copies of the LLC's Certificate of Formation or copies of certificates of amendment thereto or cancellation thereof to the Members, although such documents shall be available for review and/or copying by the Members at the LLC's principal place of business. 7.02 Accounting Basis and Fiscal Year. The LLC's books shall be kept on the accrual method of accounting, or on such other method of accounting as the Members may from time to time determine, and shall be closed and balanced at the end of each fiscal year of the LLC. The fiscal year of the LLC shall be the calendar year. 16
7.03 Bank Accounts. The Class B Members shall be responsible for causing one or more accounts to be maintained in a bank (or banks), which accounts shall be used for the payment of the expenditures incurred by the Class B Members in connection with the business of the LLC, and in which shall be deposited any and all cash receipts of the LLC. All deposits and funds not needed for the operations of the LLC may be invested in such short-term investments as the Class B Members may determine. All such amounts shall be and remain the property of the LLC, and shall be received, held and disbursed by the Class B Members for the purposes specified in this Agreement. There shall not be deposited in any of said accounts any funds other than funds belonging to the LLC, and no other funds shall in any way be commingled with such funds. 7.04 Reports to Members. Within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Class B Members shall cause the LLC to furnish to each Member (i) such information as may be needed to enable the Members to file their federal income tax returns and any required state income tax returns, and (ii) a balance sheet of the LLC as of the last day of such fiscal year, and financial statements of the LLC for such fiscal year, none of which need be audited. The cost of such reporting shall be paid by the LLC as a LLC expense. Any Member may, at any time, at its own expense, cause an audit of the LLC books to be made by a certified public accountant of its own selection. All expenses incurred by such accountant shall be borne by such Member. ARTICLE VIII TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS 8.01 Substitution and Assignment of Member's Interest. (a) Subject to Section 8.01(b) below, no Member may sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its interest in the LLC (whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law), unless a Majority in Number of the Class B Members shall have previously consented to transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or disposition in writing, the granting or denying of which consent shall be in the Class B Members' absolute discretion. The provisions of this Section 8.01(a) shall not be applicable to any assignment of the interest of a Member to a Permitted Transferee (provided that no such Permitted Transferee may be admitted to the LLC as a substitute Member except as provided in Section 8.01(c) below). (b) No assignment of the interest of a Member shall be made if, in the opinion of counsel to the LLC, such assignment (i) may not be effected without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (ii) would result in the violation of any applicable state securities laws, (iii) would result in a termination of the LLC under Section 708 of the Code, unless such a transfer is consented to by a Majority in Number of the Class B Members, (iv) would result in the treatment of the LLC as an association taxable as a corporation or as a "publicly-traded limited partnership" for tax purposes, unless such a transfer is consented to by a Majority in Number of the Class B Members or (v) would require the LLC or any Fund to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or as an investment advisor under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, as amended. The LLC shall not be required to recognize any assignment until the instrument conveying such interest has been delivered to the LLC for recordation on the books of the LLC. Unless an assignee becomes a substituted Member in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.01(c), it shall not be entitled to any of the rights granted to a Member hereunder, other than the right to receive all or part of the share of the Net Profits, Net Losses, distributions of cash or property or returns of capital to which his assignor would otherwise be entitled. 17
(c) An assignee of the interest of a Member, or any portion thereof, shall become a substituted Member entitled to all the rights of a Member if, and only if: (i) the assignor gives the assignee such right; (ii) a Majority in Number of the Class B Members consent to such substitution, the granting or denying of which consent shall be in the Class B Members' absolute discretion; (iii) the assignee or the assignor pays to the LLC all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such substitution, including specifically, without limitation, costs incurred in the review and processing of the assignment and in amending this Agreement; and (iv) the assignee executes and delivers such instruments, in form and substance satisfactory to the LLC, as may be necessary or desirable to effect such substitution and to confirm the agreement of the assignee to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. (d) The LLC and the Class B Members shall be entitled to treat the record owner of any interest in the LLC as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions of cash or other property made in good faith to such owner until such time as a written assignment of such interest has been received and accepted by the Class B Members and recorded on the books of the LLC. The Class B Members may refuse to accept an assignment until the end of the next successive quarterly accounting period. In no event shall any interest in the LLC, or any portion thereof, be sold, transferred or assigned to a minor or incompetent, and any such attempted sale, transfer or assignment shall be void and ineffectual and shall not bind the LLC. (e) If a Member who is an individual dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges him to be incompetent to manage his person or his property, the Member's executor, administrator, guardian, conservator or other legal representative may exercise all of the Member's rights hereunder, but solely for the purpose of settling his estate or administering his property, and in no event shall such executor, administrator, guardian, conservator or legal representative participate in any way in the conduct of the business of the LLC, or in the making of any decision or the taking of any action provided for hereunder (including without limitation, Section 6.01(a) or (b)) for any other purpose. If a Member is a corporation, trust or other entity, and is dissolved or terminated, the powers of that Member may be exercised by its legal representative or successor. 8.02 Additional Members. (a) Additional Class A Members may be admitted to the LLC at any time and from time to time upon the written consent of a Majority in Number of the Class B Members. Additional Class B Members may be admitted to the LLC at any time and from time to time upon the written consent of a Majority in Number of the Class B Members. Any such consent shall specify the Maximum Contribution Obligation, if any, and/or the capital contribution, if any, and Percentage Interest of the additional Member, and any other rights and obligations of such additional Member. Any such approval shall bind all Members. In connection with any such admission of an additional Member, this Agreement (including Schedules A and B) shall be amended to reflect the additional Member, its capital contribution, if any, its Percentage Interest, and any other rights and obligations of the additional Member. (b) In connection with any such admission of an additional Member, the Percentage Interest or other rights and interests of the Class A Members in the LLC shall not be diluted or otherwise modified or adjusted. Unless all Class B Members (exclusive of those with respect to whom a Separation 18
Event has occurred) otherwise agree in connection with the admission of any additional Member to the LLC, the Percentage Interests of all Class B Members (but not the Percentage Interests of the Class A Members) shall be diluted proportionately based on their respective Percentage Interests immediately prior to any such admission. (c) Each Member, and each person who is hereinafter admitted to the LLC as a Class B Member, hereby consents to the admission to the LLC of any such third party on such terms as may be approved by the Class B Members in accordance with this Section 8.02, and to any amendment to this Agreement which may be necessary or appropriate to reflect the admission of any such third party and the terms of its interest in the LLC. Each Class B Member acknowledges that, in connection with any admission of any such person, such Class B Member's interest in allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses and distributions of cash and property of the LLC, and net proceeds upon liquidation of the LLC, may be diluted or otherwise altered (subject to the provisions of this Section 8.02). (d) Any amendment to this Agreement which shall be made in order to effectuate the provisions of this Section 8.02 shall be executed by the number of Class B Members required to approve the admission of the additional Member or Members, as described in Section 8.02, and the Member being admitted to the LLC, and any such amendment shall be binding upon all of the Members. ARTICLE IX DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION 9.01 Events of Dissolution. (a) The LLC shall be dissolved: (i) on a date designated in writing by a Majority in Number of the Class B Members; (ii) upon the sale or other disposition of all of the LLC's assets; or (iii) upon the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18-802 of the Act. (b) Dissolution of the LLC shall be effective on the day on which the event occurs giving rise to the dissolution, but the LLC shall not terminate until the LLC's Certificate of Formation shall have been cancelled and the assets of the LLC shall have been distributed as provided herein. Notwithstanding the dissolution of the LLC, prior to the termination of the LLC, as aforesaid, the business of the LLC and the affairs of the Members, as such, shall continue to be governed by this Agreement. A liquidator appointed by the Class B Members (who may be a Member), shall liquidate the assets of the LLC, and distribute the proceeds thereof as contemplated by this Agreement and cause the cancellation of the LLC's Certificate of Formation. 19
9.02 Distributions Upon Liquidation. (a) After payment of liabilities owing to creditors, the liquidator shall set up such reserves as it deems reasonably necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the LLC. Said reserves may be paid over by such liquidator to a bank, to be held in escrow for the purpose of paying any such contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations and, at the expiration of such period as such liquidator may deem advisable, such reserves shall be distributed to the Members or their assigns in the manner set forth in paragraph (b) below. (b) After paying such liabilities and providing for such reserves, the liquidator shall cause the remaining net assets of the LLC to be distributed to all Members with positive Capital Account balances (after such balances have been adjusted to reflect all debits and credits required by applicable Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code for all events through and including the distribution in liquidation of the LLC), in proportion to and to the extent of such positive balances. In the event that any part of such net assets consists of notes or accounts receivable or other non-cash assets, the liquidator may take whatever steps it deems appropriate to convert such assets into cash or into any other form which would facilitate the distribution thereof. If any assets of the LLC are to be distributed in kind, such assets shall be distributed on the basis of their fair market value net of any liabilities. No Member shall have any right or interest in or to the name "@ Ventures" and all rights and interest in such name shall, upon termination of the LLC, be assigned and transferred to CMGI or an Affiliate designated by CMGI.

Each Member, by execution of this Agreement or an amendment hereto reflecting such Member's admission to the LLC, hereby represents and warrants to the LLC that: (a) It is acquiring an interest in the LLC for its own account for investment only, and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation thereunder. (b) It understands that (i) the interest in the LLC it is acquiring has not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws and cannot be resold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act and such laws or unless an exemption from such registration is available, (ii) such registration under the Securities Act and such laws is unlikely at any time in the future and neither the LLC nor the Members are obligated to file a registration 6

ARTICLE III CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS 3.01 Capital Contributions. Each Member has contributed, in cash, to the capital of the LLC the amount set forth opposite his or her name on Schedule A. 3.02 No Additional Capital. No Member shall be obligated or permitted to contribute any additional capital to the LLC. No interest shall accrue on any contributions to the capital of the LLC, and no Member shall have the right to withdraw or to be repaid any capital contributed by it or to receive any other payment in respect of its interest in the LLC, including without limitation as a result of the withdrawal or resignation of such Member from the LLC, except as specifically provided in this Agreement. ARTICLE IV CASH DISTRIBUTIONS 4.01 Distribution of Distributable Cash. Except as provided in Section 9.02(b) below, Distributable Cash of the LLC shall be distributed to the Members, at such times and in such amounts as the Voting Members may determine, in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests. 4.02 Distributions in Kind. A Member, regardless of the nature of his contribution to the LLC, shall have no right to demand or receive any distribution from the LLC in any form other than cash. The LLC may, at any time and from time to time, make distributions in kind to the 7
Members. If any assets of the LLC are distributed in kind, such assets shall be distributed on the basis of their fair market value as determined by the Voting Members. Any Member entitled to any interest in such assets shall, unless otherwise determined by the Voting Members, receive separate assets of the LLC and not an interest as a tenant-in-common with other Members so entitled in any asset being distributed. 4.03 Certain Payments to Tax Authorities Treated as Distributions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that the LLC is required, or elects, pursuant to applicable law, either (i) to pay tax (including estimated tax) on a Member's allocable share of any LLC items of income or gain, whether or not distributed, or (ii) to withhold and pay over to the tax authorities any portion of a distribution otherwise distributable to a Member, and such tax or withheld amount shall be treated as a distribution to such Member at the time it is paid to the tax authorities. In the event that the amount paid (or paid over) to the tax authorities on behalf of a Member exceeds the amount that would then have been distributed to the Member absent such tax obligation, such excess shall be treated as a demand loan from the LLC to such Member, which loan shall bear interest at the prime rate announced from time to time by The Wall Street Journal, until paid in full. ARTICLE V ALLOCATION OF NET PROFITS AND NET LOSSES 5.01 Basic Allocations. (a) Except as provided in Section 5.02 below (which shall be applied first), Net Profits of the LLC for any relevant period shall be allocated as follows: (i) First, to any Members having negative Adjusted Capital Account balances, in proportion to and to the extent of such negative balances; and (ii) The balance, if any, to the Members in such proportions and in such amounts as would result in the Adjusted Capital Account balance of each Member equaling, as nearly as possible, such Member's share of the then LLC Capital determined by calculating the amount the Member would receive if an amount equal to the LLC Capital were distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01 hereof. (b) Except as provided in Section 5.02 below (which shall be applied first), Net Losses of the LLC for any relevant period shall be allocated among the Members as follows: (i) First, to each Member with a positive Adjusted Capital Account balance, in the amount of such positive balance; provided, however, that if the amount of Net Losses to be allocated is less than the sum of the Adjusted Capital Account balances of all Members having positive Adjusted Capital Account balances, then the Net Losses shall be allocated to the Members in such proportions and in such amounts as would 8
result in the Adjusted Capital Account balance of each Member equaling, as nearly as possible, such Member's share of the then LLC Capital determined as set forth in Section 5.01(a) above; and (ii) The balance, if any, to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests. (c) If the amount of Net Profits allocable to the Members pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(ii) or the amount of Net Losses allocable to them pursuant to Section 5.01(b)(i) is insufficient to allow the Adjusted Capital Account balance of each Member to equal such Member's share of the LLC Capital, such Net Profits or Net Losses shall be allocated among the Members in such a manner as to decrease the differences between the Members' respective Adjusted Capital Account balances and their respective shares of the LLC Capital in proportion to such differences. (d) Allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses provided for in this Section 5.01 shall generally be made as of the end of the fiscal year of the LLC; provided, however, that allocations of items of Net Profits and Net Losses described in clause (vi) of the definition of "Net Profits" and "Net Losses" shall be made at the time deemed realized as described in the definition of "Capital Account." (e) Upon admission of any Member to the LLC following the date of formation of the LLC, any deduction attributable to such admission shall be allocated among the Members of the LLC (determined immediately prior to the admission of such new Member), in proportion to such Members' respective Percentage Interests as in effect immediately prior to such admission. 5.02 Regulatory Allocations. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.01 above, the following allocations of Net Profits, Net Losses and items thereof shall be made in the following order of priority: (a) Items of income or gain (computed with the adjustments contained in paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of the definition of "Net Profits and Net Losses") for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Members in the manner and to the minimum extent required by the "minimum gain chargeback" provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4). (b) All "nonrecourse deductions" (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) of the LLC for any year shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests; provided, however, that nonrecourse deductions attributable to "partner nonrecourse debt" (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(1). (c) Items of income or gain (computed with the adjustments contained in paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of the definition of "Net Profits and Net Losses") for any taxable 9
period shall be allocated to the Members in the manner and to the extent required by the "qualified income offset" provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). (d) In no event shall Net Losses of the LLC be allocated to a Member if such allocation would cause or increase a negative balance in such Member's Adjusted Capital Account (determined for purposes of this Section 5.02(d) only, by increasing the Member's Adjusted Capital Account balance by the amount the Member is obligated to restore to the LLC pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c). (e) Except as otherwise provided herein or as required by Code Section 704, for tax purposes, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit shall be allocated to the Members in the same manner as are Net Profits and Net Losses; provided, however, that if the Carrying Value of any property of the LLC differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes, then items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit related to such property for tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted basis of the property for tax purposes and its Carrying Value in the manner provided for under Code Section 704(c). ARTICLE VI MANAGEMENT 6.01 Management of the LLC. (a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Act, all powers shall be exercised by or under the authority of, and the business and affairs of the LLC shall be controlled by the Members. (b) Except to the extent that this Agreement specifically provides for a higher or lower number or percentage or group of Members, all decisions respecting any matter set forth herein or otherwise affecting or arising out of the conduct of the business of the LLC shall be made by action of a Majority in Number of the Voting Members. Subject to the foregoing, the Voting Members shall have the exclusive right and full authority to manage, conduct and operate the LLC business. Specifically, but not by way of limitation, the Voting Members (by action of such Majority in Number) shall be authorized, for and on behalf of the LLC: (i) to borrow money, to issue evidences of indebtedness and to guarantee the debts of others for whatever purposes they may specify, whether or not related to the LLC or the LLC's assets, and, as security therefor, to mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber the assets of the LLC; (ii) to cause to be paid on or before the due date thereof all amounts due and payable by the LLC to any person or entity; (iii) to employ such agents, employees, managers, accountants, 10
attorneys, consultants and other persons necessary or appropriate to carry out the business and affairs of the LLC, whether or not any such persons so employed are Members or are affiliated or related to any Member, and to pay such fees, expenses, salaries, wages and other compensation to such persons as the Voting Members shall in their sole discretion determine; (iv) to pay, extend, renew, modify, adjust, submit to arbitration, prosecute, defend or compromise, upon such terms as they may determine and upon such evidence as they may deem sufficient, any obligation, suit, liability, cause of action or claim, including taxes, either in favor of or against the LLC; (v) to pay any and all fees and to make any and all expenditures which the Voting Members, in their discretion, deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the organization of the LLC, and the carrying out of its obligations and responsibilities under this or any other Agreement; (vi) to lease, sell, finance or refinance all or any portion of the LLC's property; (vii) to cause the LLC to make or revoke any of the elections referred to in Sections 108, 704, 709, 754 or 1017 of the Code or any similar provisions enacted in lieu thereof, or in any other Section of the Code; (viii) to establish and maintain reserves for such purposes and in such amounts as it deems appropriate from time to time; (ix) to pay all organizational expenses and general and administrative expenses of the LLC; (x) to deal with, or otherwise engage in business with, or provide services to and receive compensation therefor from, any person who has provided or may in the future provide any services to, lend money to, sell property to, or purchase property from the LLC, including without limitation, a Member; (xi) to engage in any kind of activity and to perform and carry out contracts of any kind necessary to, or in connection with, or incidental to the accomplishment of the purposes of the LLC; (xii) to compromise the obligation of a Member to make a contribution to the capital of the LLC or to return to the LLC money or other property paid or distributed to such Member in violation of this Agreement or the Act; (xiii) to cause to be paid any and all taxes, charges and assessments that may be levied, assessed or imposed upon any of the assets of the LLC, unless the same are contested by the Voting Members; and 11
(xiv) to exercise all powers and authority granted by the Act to members, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. (c) Any Member is authorized to execute, deliver and file on behalf of the LLC any documents to be filed with the Secretary of States of the State of Delaware, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or any other jurisdiction in which the LLC may qualify to transact business. The signature of one Member on any agreement, contract, instrument or other document shall be sufficient to bind the LLC in respect thereof and conclusively evidence the authority of such Member and the LLC with respect thereto, and no third party need look to any other evidence or require the joinder or consent of any other party. (d) The Voting Members, by action of a Majority in Number thereof, may at any time and from time to time change the status of any Member from Voting to Non-Voting, and vice versa. The Voting Members may, from time to time, designate officers of the LLC, with such titles and authority as the Voting Members shall determine. Each Member is authorized to use the title "Managing Director" when acting on behalf of the LLC in the conduct of its business. 6.02 Tax Matters Partner. Andrew J. Hajducky III shall be the tax matters partner for the LLC pursuant to Code Sections 6221 through 6231. The tax matters partner may be removed or replaced, at any time, by action of a Majority in Number of the Voting Members. 6.03 Liability of the Members; Indemnification. Neither the Members, nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to the LLC or to any other Member for any loss suffered by the LLC which arises out of any action or inaction of such Member or their Affiliates if such Member or its Affiliates, as the case may be, in good faith, determined that such course of conduct was in the best interests of the LLC and such course of conduct did not constitute gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or intentional violation of the law on the part of such Member or its Affiliates. Each Member and its Affiliates shall be indemnified by the LLC against any losses, judgments, liabilities, expenses and amounts paid in settlement of any claims sustained by them with respect to actions taken by them on behalf of the LLC, provided that the same were not the result of gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or intentional violation of the law on the part of such Member or its Affiliates. Without limiting the foregoing, the Voting Members may elect (on a case by case basis) to permit such indemnification to include payment by the LLC of expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by the person indemnified to repay such payment if he shall be adjudicated not to be entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.03, which undertaking may be accepted without reference to the financial ability of such person to make repayment. Any indemnity under this Section 6.03 shall be paid from, and only to the extent of, LLC assets, and no Member shall have any personal liability on account thereof. 6.04 Liability of Members. The liability of the Members for the losses, debts and obligations of the LLC shall be limited to their capital contributions; provided, however, that under applicable law, the Members may under certain circumstances be liable to the LLC to the extent of previous distributions made to them in the event that the LLC does not have sufficient 12
assets to discharge its liabilities. 6.05 Certain Fees and Expenses. All out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by any Member in connection with the LLC's business (other than overhead and similar expenses of any Member) shall be paid by the LLC or reimbursed to the Member by the LLC. 6.06 Conflicts of Interest. No contract or transaction between the LLC and one or more of its Members or Affiliates, or between the LLC and any other corporation, partnership association or other organization in which one or more of its Members or Affiliates are directors, officers or partners or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for such reason, or solely because the Member or Affiliate is present at or participates in any meeting of Members which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his, her or its vote is counted for such purpose, if: (a) the material facts as to his, her or its interest as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Voting Members and the Voting Members authorize the contract or transaction by a vote sufficient for such purpose without counting the vote of the interested Member even though the disinterested Voting Members may be less than a Majority in Number of the Voting Members; (b) the material facts as to his, her or its interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Voting Members entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved by a vote of the Voting Members; or (c) the contract or transaction is fair to the LLC or its Affiliates as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Voting Members. 6.07 Other Activities. Each of the Members hereby agrees to use its best efforts in connection with the purposes and objectives of the LLC and to devote to such purposes and objectives such of his time and resources as shall be necessary for the management of the affairs of the LLC. Subject to Section 8.03 below and the terms of any other agreement between the LLC and any Member, the Members and their respective Affiliates may engage in and possess interests in other business ventures and investment opportunities of every kind and description, independently or with others, including serving as directors, officers, stockholders, managers, members and general or limited partners of corporations, partnerships or other limited liability companies with purposes similar to or the same as those of the LLC. Neither the LLC nor any other Member or Manager shall have any rights in or to such ventures or opportunities or the income or profits therefrom. ARTICLE VII BOOKS, RECORDS AND BANK ACCOUNTS 7.01 Books and Records. The Members shall keep or cause to be kept just and true books of account with respect to the operations of the LLC. Such books shall be maintained at the 13
LLC's principal place of business, or at such other place as the Voting Members shall determine, and all Members, and their duly authorized representatives, shall at all reasonable times have access to such books as well as any information required to be made available to the Members under the Act. The Members shall not be required to deliver or mail copies of the LLC's Certificate of Formation or copies of certificates of amendment thereto or cancellation thereof to the Members, although such documents shall be available for review and/or copying by the Members at the LLC's principal place of business. 7.02 Accounting Basis and Fiscal Year. The LLC's books shall be kept on the accrual method of accounting, or on such other method of accounting as the Voting Members may from time to time determine, and shall be closed and balanced at the end of each fiscal year of the LLC. The fiscal year of the LLC shall be the calendar year, or such other fiscal year as the Voting Members may from time to time determine. 7.03 Bank Accounts. The Voting Members shall be responsible for causing one or more accounts to be maintained in a bank (or banks), which accounts shall be used for the payment of the expenditures incurred by the Members in connection with the business of the LLC, and in which shall be deposited any and all cash receipts of the LLC. All deposits and funds not needed for the operations of the LLC may be invested in such short-term investments as the Voting Members may determine. All such amounts shall be and remain the property of the LLC, and shall be received, held and disbursed by the Voting Members for the purposes specified in this Agreement. There shall not be deposited in any of said accounts any funds other than funds belonging to the LLC, and no other funds shall in any way be commingled with such funds. 7.04 Reports to Members. Within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Members shall cause the LLC to furnish to each Member such information as may be needed to enable the Members to file their federal income tax returns and any required state income tax returns. The cost of such reporting shall be paid by the LLC as an LLC expense. Any Member may, at any time, at its own expense, cause an audit of the LLC books to be made by a certified public accountant of its own selection. All expenses incurred by such accountant shall be borne by such Member. ARTICLE VIII TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS 8.01 Substitution and Assignment of Member's Interest. (a) No Member may sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its interest in the LLC (whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law), unless a Majority in Number of the Voting Members (exclusive of the transferring Member) shall have previously consented to such assignment in writing, the granting or denying of which consent shall be in the such Voting Members' absolute discretion. The provisions of this Section 8.01(a) shall not be applicable to (i) any transfer of an interest in the LLC pursuant to Sections 8.03 or 8.04, or (ii) any assignment of an interest to a Permitted 14
Transferee (provided that such Permitted Transferee may not be admitted as a substitute Member without compliance with this Section 8.01(a)). (b) No assignment of the interest of a Member shall be made if, in the opinion of counsel to the LLC, such assignment (i) may not be effected without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (ii) would result in the violation of any applicable state securities laws, (iii) would result in a termination of the LLC under Section 708 of the Code, unless such a transfer is consented to by a Majority in Number of the Voting Members without regard to the transferring Member or (iv) would result in the treatment of the LLC as an association taxable as a corporation or as a "publicly-traded limited partnership" for tax purposes, unless such a transfer is consented to by a Majority in Number of the Voting Members without regard to the transferring Member. The LLC shall not be required to recognize any assignment until the instrument conveying such interest has been delivered to the LLC for recordation on the books of the LLC. Unless an assignee becomes a substituted Member in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.01(c), it shall not be entitled to any of the rights granted to a Member hereunder, other than the right to receive all or part of the share of the Net Profits, Net Losses, items of income, gain, loss or deduction, distributions or returns of capital to which his assignor would otherwise be entitled. (c) An assignee of the interest of a Member, or any portion thereof, shall become a substituted Member entitled to all the rights of a Member if, and only if: (i) the assignor gives the assignee such right; (ii) the Voting Members by action of a Majority in Number thereof (without regard to the transferring Member) consent to such substitution, the granting or denying of which consent shall be in such Voting Members' absolute discretion; (iii) the assignee or the assignor pays to the LLC all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such substitution, including specifically, without limitation, costs incurred in the review and processing of the assignment and in amending this Agreement; and (iv) the assignee executes and delivers such instruments, in form and substance satisfactory to the LLC, as may be necessary or desirable to effect such substitution and to confirm the agreement of the assignee to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of clause (ii) of this Section 8.01(c) shall not be applicable to any transfer of an interest in the LLC pursuant to Sections 8.03 or 8.04. (d) Unless a Majority in Number of the Voting Members (exclusive of the assignor) otherwise approve, any assignee of the interest of a Voting Member who becomes a substitute Member shall be and become a Voting Member, and any assignee of the interest of a Non-Voting Member who becomes a substitute Member shall be and become a Non-Voting Member. 15
(e) The LLC and the Members shall be entitled to treat the record owner of any interest in the LLC as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions of cash or other property made in good faith to such owner until such time as a written assignment of such interest has been received and accepted by the Members and recorded on the books of the LLC. The Voting Members may refuse to accept an assignment until the end of the next successive quarterly accounting period. In no event shall any interest in the LLC, or any portion thereof, be sold, transferred or assigned to a minor or incompetent, and any such attempted sale, transfer or assignment shall be void and ineffectual and shall not bind the LLC. (f) Subject to Section 8.04, if a Member who is an individual dies or a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges him to be incompetent to manage his person or his property, the Member's executor, administrator, guardian, conservator or other legal representative may exercise all of the Member's rights hereunder, but solely for the purpose of settling his estate or administering his property, and in no event shall such executor, administrator, guardian, conservator or legal representative participate in any way in the conduct of the business of the LLC, or in the making of any decision or the taking of any action provided for hereunder (including without limitation, Section 6.01(a) or (b)) for any other purpose. If a Member is a corporation, trust or other entity, and is dissolved or terminated, the powers of that Member may be exercised by its legal representative or successor. 8.02 Additional Members. Except as provided in Sections 8.01, 8.03 and 8.04, additional Members may be admitted to the LLC only upon the written consent of 75% in Number of the Voting Members, and any such consent shall specify whether the Member is a Voting or Non-Voting Member and the capital contribution, Percentage Interest and any other rights and obligations of such additional Member. Such approval shall bind all Members. In connection with any such admission, this Agreement (including Schedule A) shall be amended to reflect the additional Member, its capital contribution, if any, its Percentage Interest, and any other rights and obligations of the additional Member. In connection with any such admission of additional Members, the Percentage Interests of the Members shall be diluted proportionately, based on their respective Percentage Interests immediately prior to any such dilution. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, the interest of any third party admitted to the LLC pursuant to this Section 8.02 in the Net Profits, Net Losses, items of income, gain, loss or deduction, and distributions of cash or property of any nature may have such priority or priorities in relationship to the interests therein of the Members as 75% in Number of the Voting Members may in their sole discretion determine, provided that, the relative priorities of the Members in the Net Profits, Net Losses, items of income, gain, loss or deduction, and distributions of any nature of the LLC shall not be altered as a result of the admission of any such new member. Each Member, and each person who is hereinafter admitted to the LLC as a Member, hereby (i) consents to the admission of any such third party on such terms as 75% in Number of the Voting Members may determine (subject to the provisions of this Section 8.02), and to any amendment to this Agreement which may be necessary or appropriate to reflect the admission of any such third party and the terms on which it invests in the LLC, and (ii) acknowledges that, in 16
connection with any admission of any such person, such Member's interest in allocations of Net Profits, Net Losses, items of income, gain, loss or deduction, and distributions of cash and property of the LLC, and net proceeds upon liquidation of the LLC, may be diluted or otherwise altered (subject to the provisions of this Section 8.02). Any amendment to this Agreement which shall be made in order to effectuate the provisions of this Section 8.02 shall be executed by not less than 75% in Number of the Voting Members, and any such amendment shall be binding upon all of the Members. 8.03 Right to Remove a Member. (a) The Members, by action of Two-thirds in Number of the Voting Members (determined exclusive of the Member which is the subject of removal pursuant to this Section 8.03(a) (the "Subject Member")), may remove any Member from the LLC, with or without cause, for any reason or for no reason. Following the effective date of any such removal, the removed Member shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the LLC, and thereafter shall not be entitled to participate in allocations of Net Profits or Net Losses of the LLC, or in distributions of cash and property of the LLC or net proceeds upon liquidation of the LLC. A removed Member shall not be entitled to any distribution, payment or other compensation from the LLC in respect of his removal as a Member of the LLC pursuant to this Section 8.03(a). (b) Any Member may be removed from the LLC, for Cause (as defined below), by action of a Majority in Number of the Voting Members (determined exclusive of the Subject Member). Following the effective date of any such removal, the removed Member shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the LLC, and thereafter shall not be entitled to participate in allocations of Net Profits, Net Losses or items of income gain, loss or deduction of the LLC, or in distributions of cash and property of the LLC or net proceeds upon liquidation of the LLC. A removed Member shall not be entitled to any distribution, payment or other compensation from the LLC in respect of his removal as a Member of the LLC pursuant to this Section 8.03(b). For purposes of this Section 8.03(b), the LLC shall have "Cause" to remove a Member if: (i) the Member is convicted of a felony involving dishonesty or moral turpitude; or (ii) the Member engages in any business or enterprise (whether as owner, partner, officer, director, employee, consultant, investor, lender or otherwise, except as the holder of not more than 1% of the outstanding stock of a publicly-held company) that is competitive with the business of the LLC or the entities to which the LLC provides management services, as reasonably determined by 75% in Number of the Voting Members exclusive of the Subject Member. 8.04 Death or Disability of a Member. Upon the death or disability (as hereinafter defined) of any Member, the LLC may, but shall not be obligated to, purchase the interest of such Member. The purchase price for such interest shall equal the fair market value of such interest, as reasonably determined by agreement of (x) the legal representatives of the deceased or disabled Member and (y) a Majority in Number of the Voting Members. If such persons are 17
unable to agree upon such fair market value, such value shall be determined by an independent appraiser, mutually acceptable to the legal representatives of the deceased or disabled Member and a Majority in Number of the Voting Members. For purposes of this Agreement, a Member shall be deemed to be disabled if he is unable, as a result of mental or physical incapacity, to render services to the LLC on a regular ongoing basis for a period of 180 days. The purchase price for the interest shall be paid in cash, or by delivery of a promissory note of the LLC, or some combination thereof, as the LLC may determine. Any such promissory note shall be unsecured, and shall provide for payment of equal annual installments over a term not to exceed four years, and shall bear interest at the then Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in Code Section 1274(d)) for a note with the maturity date of such promissory note. Such promissory note shall be prepayable by the LLC at any time without premium or penalty. The closing of a purchase pursuant to this Section 8.04 shall be held at the principal office of the LLC within 60 days after the date on which the purchase price for the interest is determined, but in no event more than one year after the date of death or the date on which the disabled Member is determined to be disabled, as applicable. The estate or legal representative of the deceased or disabled Member shall transfer to the LLC (or its designee) the entire interest of such Member in the LLC, free and clear of all liens, security interests and competing claims, and shall deliver to the LLC or its designee such instruments of assignment, transfer, releases and such evidence of due authorization, execution and delivery and of the absence of any liens, security interests or competing claims as the LLC shall reasonably request. Each Member shall execute and deliver at such closing such other instruments as shall be necessary, appropriate or convenient to effectuate such transfer. ARTICLE IX DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION 9.01 Events of Dissolution. (a) The LLC shall be dissolved: (i) on a date designated in writing by 75% in Number of the Voting Members; (ii) upon the sale or other disposition of all of the LLC's assets; or (iii) upon the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18-802 of the Act. (b) Dissolution of the LLC shall be effective on the day on which the event occurs giving rise to the dissolution, but the LLC shall not terminate until the LLC's Certificate of Formation shall have been cancelled and the assets of the LLC shall have been distributed as 18
provided herein. Notwithstanding the dissolution of the LLC, prior to the termination of the LLC, as aforesaid, the business of the LLC and the affairs of the Members, as such, shall continue to be governed by this Agreement. A liquidator appointed by the Voting Members (which liquidator may be a Member), shall liquidate the assets of the LLC, and distribute the proceeds thereof as contemplated by this Agreement and cause the cancellation of the LLC's Certificate of Formation. 9.02 Distributions Upon Liquidation. (a) After payment of liabilities owing to creditors, the liquidator shall set up such reserves as it deems reasonably necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the LLC. Said reserves may be paid over by such liquidator to a bank, to be held in escrow for the purpose of paying any such contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations and, at the expiration of such period as such liquidator may deem advisable, such reserves shall be distributed to the Members or their assigns in the manner set forth in paragraph (b) below. (b) After paying such liabilities and providing for such reserves, the liquidator shall cause the remaining net assets of the LLC to be distributed to all Members with positive Capital Account balances (after such balances have been adjusted to reflect all debits and credits required by applicable Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code for all events through and including the distribution in liquidation of the LLC), in proportion to and to the extent of such positive balances. In the event that any part of such net assets consists of notes or accounts receivable or other non-cash assets, the liquidator may take whatever steps it deems appropriate to convert such assets into cash or into any other form which would facilitate the distribution thereof. If any assets of the LLC are to be distributed in kind, such assets shall be distributed on the basis of their fair market value net of any liabilities. ARTICLE X MISCELLANEOUS 10.01 Notices. Any and all notices, requests, elections, consents or demands permitted or required to be made under this Agreement shall be in writing, signed by the Member giving such notice, request, election, consent or demand, and shall be delivered personally, or sent by registered or certified mail, or by overnight mail, Federal Express or other similar commercial overnight courier, to the other Member or Members at their addresses set forth in Schedule A, and, in the case of a notice to the LLC, at the address of its principal office as set forth in Article I hereof, or at such other address as may be supplied by written notice given in conformity with the terms of this Section 10.01. The date of personal delivery, three days after the date of mailing, the business day after delivery to an overnight courier, as the case may be, or the date of actual delivery if sent by any other method, shall be the date of such notice. 10.02 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, this 19
Agreement, and each and every provision hereof, shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Members, their respective successors, successors-in-title, heirs and assigns, and each and every successor-in-interest to any Member, whether such successor acquires such interest by way of gift, purchase, foreclosure, or by any other method, shall hold such interest subject to all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. 10.03 Amendments. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement (including without limitation, Article VIII), this Agreement may be amended or modified only by a Majority in Number of the Voting Members; provided that (x) no such amendment shall increase the liability of, increase the obligations of or, except as specifically provided in this Agreement (such as, for example, in Section 8.03), adversely affect the interest of, any Member without the specific approval of such Member; (y) if any provision of this Agreement provides for the approval or consent of a greater number of Members or of Members holding a higher percentage of the total Percentage Interests of the Members, any amendment effectuated pursuant to such provision, and any amendment to such provision, shall require the approval or consent of such greater number of Members or of Members holding such higher percentage of Percentage Interests; and (z) subject to clauses (x) and (y) above, any amendment to this Section 10.03 shall require the approval of 75% in Number of the Voting Members. 10.04 Partition. The Members hereby agree that no Member nor any successor-in-interest to any Member, shall have the right while this Agreement remains in effect to have the property of the LLC partitioned, or to file a complaint or institute any proceeding at law or in equity to have the property of the LLC partitioned, and each Member, on behalf of himself, his successors, representatives, heirs and assigns, hereby waives any such right. It is the intention of the Members that during the term of this Agreement, the rights of the Members and their successors-in-interest, as among themselves, shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement, and that the right of any Member or successor-in-interest to assign, transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of his interest in the LLC shall be subject to the limitations and restrictions of this Agreement. 10.05 No Waiver. The failure of any Member to insist upon strict performance of a covenant hereunder or of any obligation hereunder, irrespective of the length of time for which such failure continues, shall not be a waiver of such Member's right to demand strict compliance in the future. No consent or waiver, express or implied, to or of any breach or default in the performance of any obligation hereunder, shall constitute a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance of the same or any other obligation hereunder. 10.06 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and complete agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. 10.07 Captions.

EXHIBIT 10.76 @VENTURES III, L.P. MANAGEMENT CONTRACT AGREEMENT between @Ventures III, L.P., a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Partnership"), and @Ventures Management, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware with its principal office in Andover, Massachusetts (the "Company"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership. WHEREAS, the Partnership has been formed pursuant to an Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Agreement") for the purpose of making investments in Portfolio Companies; and WHEREAS, the Partnership wishes to engage the Company to provide certain services to further the objectives and purposes of the Partnership, and the Company is willing to provide such services; NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, it is agreed as follows: 1. Services to be Rendered by the Company to the Partnership. The Company will use its best efforts to provide the Partnership with investment opportunities in Portfolio Securities meeting the requirements of the Agreement. The Company shall provide such assistance as the Partnership may reasonably request in identifying, evaluating, structuring, consummating, monitoring and disposing of potential investments by the Partnership. All investment decisions shall be made by the general partner of the Partnership on behalf of the Partnership, and nothing in this contract shall be construed to constitute the Company an agent of the Partnership. 2. Other Activities. It is understood and agreed that the Company may have management, consulting, service or other contracts with other entities, including companies in which the Partnership invests. The Partnership agrees that the Company shall be free to pursue such opportunities, and that the Partnership shall have no interest therein. 3. Payment of Expenses. The Company, so long as this Contract is in effect, shall be responsible for and shall pay all of its out-of-pocket expenses and those of the General Partner, including expenses which relate to salaries, office space, supplies and other facilities of their businesses, except as set forth in Section 6.5A(4) of the Agreement. It is expected that in the case of consummated investments, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that all the fees and expenses incurred by the Partnership in connection with identifying, evaluating, structuring and consummating such investments will be paid by the Portfolio Company in which the investment was made. 4. The Management Fee. As full compensation for the services rendered to the
Partnership hereunder and the expenses borne by the Company hereunder, during the period ending four (4) years after the Initial Closing Date (the "Initial Payment Period"), the Partnership shall pay the Company a management fee equal to 2% per annum of the aggregate Capital Commitments of all Partners. The management fee shall be paid semi-annually in advance commencing on the Initial Closing Date of the Partnership and continuing on the first days of each February and August thereafter until termination of this Contract. Subsequent to the end of the Initial Payment Period, the management fee will be equal to 1% per annum of the aggregate Capital Commitments of all Partners. In addition the management fee will be reduced by one-half during any period in which the Partnership is in a Continuity Mode as provided in Section 6.4 of the Agreement and to the extent that the Partnership is placed in a Continuity Mode during any period with respect to which the management fee has already been paid, such reduction shall be reflected as a credit against the management fee to be paid in the following semi-annual period. 5. Set-Offs Against Management Fee. The Company, the General Partner and their respective Affiliates may receive management, directors', consulting and other similar fees and compensation from companies in which the Partnership invests, provided that the amount of such fees and other compensation is reasonable in relation to the work performed by the Company and bear a reasonable relation to fees and compensation charged for similar work by third parties. One half of such fees and other compensation (referred to herein as "Shared Portfolio Company Fees") shall be credited against the management fee payable by the Partnership, the Foreign Fund and CMGI in proportion to their respective aggregate capital commitments. In addition, subject to Section 6.2.0 of the Agreement, any fee, reimbursement or other form of compensation payable by a third party as a result of the failure to consummate an investment ("Break-up Fees") to the Partnership, the General Partner, the Company or their respective Affiliates shall be paid as follows: An amount equal to the aggregate unreimbursed fees and expenses paid by the Partnership, the General Partner, the Company or their Affiliates which were specific to the transaction giving rise to such fee shall be paid to each such entity in proportion to the fees and expenses incurred by it.

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership. WHEREAS, the Partnership has been formed pursuant to an Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Agreement") for the purpose of making investments in Portfolio Companies; and WHEREAS, the Partnership wishes to engage the Company to provide certain services to further the objectives and purposes of the Partnership, and the Company is willing to provide such services; NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, it is agreed as follows: 1. Services to be Rendered by the Company to the Partnership. The Company will use its best efforts to provide the Partnership with investment opportunities in Portfolio Securities meeting the requirements of the Agreement. The Company shall provide such assistance as the Partnership may reasonably request in identifying, evaluating, structuring, consummating, monitoring and disposing of potential investments by the Partnership. All investment decisions shall be made by the general partner of the Partnership on behalf of the Partnership, and nothing in this contract shall be construed to constitute the Company an agent of the Partnership. 2. Other Activities. It is understood and agreed that the Company may have management, consulting, service or other contracts with other entities, including companies in which the Partnership invests. The Partnership agrees that the Company shall be free to pursue such opportunities, and that the Partnership shall have no interest therein. 3. Payment of Expenses.

Set-Offs Against Management Fee. The Company, the General Partner and their respective Affiliates may receive management, directors', consulting and other similar fees and compensation from companies in which the Partnership invests, provided that the amount of such fees and other compensation is reasonable in relation to the work performed by the Company and bear a reasonable relation to fees and compensation charged for similar work by third parties. One half of such fees and other compensation (referred to herein as "Shared Portfolio Company Fees") shall be credited against the management fee payable by the Partnership, the Domestic Fund and CMGI in proportion to their respective aggregate capital commitments. In addition, subject to Section 6.2.0 of the Agreement, any fee, reimbursement or other form of compensation payable by a third party as a result of the failure to consummate an investment ("Break-up Fees") to the Partnership, the General Partner, the Company or their respective Affiliates shall be paid as follows: An amount equal to the aggregate unreimbursed fees and expenses paid by the Partnership, the General Partner, the Company or their Affiliates which were specific to the transaction giving rise to such fee shall be paid to each such entity in proportion to the fees and expenses incurred by it. The balance of any such Break-Up Fee shall be paid to the Company; provided that one-half of the remaining Break-Up Fee shall be credited against the management fee payable by the Partnership, the Domestic Fund and CMGI in proportion to their respective aggregate capital commitments.

In the event that such amounts exceed total future installments of the management fee, they shall be paid to the Partnership, the Domestic Fund and CMGI (in proportion to their respective aggregate capital commitments) and included as Operating Receipts. A determination of the amount of management fee set-off, if any, shall be made semi-annually as of June 30 and January 31 of each calendar year and any such amount shall be credited against the next installment of the management fee otherwise payable. 6. Term and Termination. This Contract shall become effective on its execution and shall remain in full force and effect continuously thereafter until the earlier to occur of (i) the date the Partnership is wound up, liquidated and dissolved, and (ii) the removal of @Ventures Partners III, LLC as the general partner of the Partnership.
