SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION Pursuant to the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") previously filed as Exhibit 2 to the Statement, dated as of September 23, 2001, by and between the Company, Sierra Ventures VII, SV Associates VII and certain other investors named in the Schedule of Purchasers to the Purchase Agreement, (1) Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII purchased 90,933 and 9,067 shares, respectively, of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") at a price of $10 per share, with the purchase price having been paid in cash at the closing of the sale of such shares on October 9, 2001 (the "Series A Closing"); (2) upon the Series A Closing, the Company issued to Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 90,933 and 9,067 additional shares, respectively, of Series A Preferred Stock at a price of $10 per share in cash, which warrants are exercisable for up to one year after the Series A Closing under certain circumstances, in the forms previously filed as Exhibit 3 to the Statement ("Preferred Stock Warrants"); (3) upon the Series A Closing, the Company issued to Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII warrants to purchase up to 454,665 and 45,335 shares, respectively, of Common Stock at a price of $1.00 per share in the form previously filed as Exhibit 4 to the Statement ("Common Stock Warrants") and (4) the Company agreed to grant to Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII additional Common Stock Warrants to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to 25% of the number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued upon exercise of the Preferred Stock Warrants are convertible at the time such Preferred Stock Warrants are exercised. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock will be convertible into Common Stock at a conversion price of $14.80, subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company filed as Exhibit 14 hereto (the "Amended and Restated Certificate"). Schedule 13D Page 9 of 18 On March 29, 2002, Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII exercised warrants to purchase up to 45,467 and 4,533 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, respectively. Upon exercise of such warrants, the Company issued to Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII, additional Common Stock Warrants to purchase up to 227,335 and 22,665 shares of Common Stock, respectively. The total funds used to purchase the Series A Preferred Stock at the Series A Closing pursuant to the Purchase Agreement were $909,330 in the case of Sierra Ventures VII and $90,670 in the case of SV Associates VII and pursuant to the exercise of warrants to Purchase Series A Preferred Stock on March 29, 2002 were $454,670 in the case of Sierra Ventures VII and $45,330 in the case of SV Associates VII, and were furnished from the working capital of Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII, respectively.

However, the Common Stock Warrants provide Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII the option to convert such warrants on a cashless basis by electing to have the Company withhold a number of shares otherwise issuable upon exercise of the Warrants that is equal in value at the time of conversion to the aggregate exercise price of the shares actually issued upon such conversion. Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII have not made any determination as to whether they will exercise the Common Stock Warrants, if at all, either for cash or on a cashless basis. Pursuant to the Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Series B Purchase Agreement") attached to the Statement as Exhibit 9, dated as of August 20, 2002, by and among the Company, Sierra Ventures VII, SV Associates VII and certain other investors listed on the signature pages thereto, Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII purchased 181,866 and 18,134 shares, respectively, of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock at a price of $10 per share, with the purchase price having been paid in cash at the closing of the sale of such shares (the "Series B Closing"). Each share of Series B Preferred Stock will be convertible into Common Stock at a conversion price of $7.60, subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate. The total funds used to purchase the Series B Preferred Stock at the Series B Closing pursuant to the Series B Purchase Agreement were $1,818,660 in the case of Sierra Ventures VII and $181,340 in the case of SV Associates VII and were furnished from the working capital of Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII, respectively. On September 30, 2002, Sierra Ventures VII sold 134,381 of its shares of Series B Preferred Stock to Sierra Ventures VI for a cash purchase price of $1,343,810. Sierra Ventures VII retained ownership of the remaining 47,485 shares of Series B Preferred Stock it purchased at the Series B Closing. In addition, on September 30, 2002, SV Associates VII sold 13,399 of its shares of Series B Preferred Stock to SV Associates VI for a cash purchase price of $133,990. SV Associates VII retained ownership of the remaining 4,735 shares of Series B Preferred Stock it purchased at the Series B Closing. The funds used to purchase the foregoing shares of Series B Preferred Stock were furnished from the working capital of Sierra Ventures VI and SV Associates VI. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION On January 29, 2003, Sierra Venture VI, SV Associates VI, Sierra Venture VII, and SV Associates VII distributed the shares of Common Stock held by them to their respective limited partners, general partners or members, as Schedule 13D Page 10 of 18 applicable, without consideration, on a pro rata basis pursuant to the terms of their respective partnership agreements, as amended, or operating agreement, as amended, as applicable. Jeffrey M. Drazan, a general partner of SV Associates VI (the general partner of Sierra Ventures VI) and a managing member of SV Associates VII (the general partner of Sierra Ventures VII), currently serves as a director of the Company. As a result, Mr. Drazan may be deemed to be a "control" person of the Company.

In addition, the liquidation preference applicable to the Series A Preferred Stock increases at the rate of 8.00% per year, compounded quarterly, from the date of issue, and, as the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion is tied to the liquidation preference, the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock will also increase at a minimum of 8.00% per year, compounded quarterly.

If less than 50% but at least 25% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued by the Company remain outstanding, the number of directors to be elected by holders of the Series A Preferred Stock voting separately shall be reduced to one. If less than 25% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued by the Company remain outstanding, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will no longer have the right to elect any members of the board of directors voting separately. All directors other than the Preferred Directors (as defined in the Amended and Restated Certificate) will be elected by the holders of the Common Stock, the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock voting together as a single class on an as converted to Common Stock basis.
