SHAREHOLDER AGREEMENT This Shareholder Agreement (the "Agreement") is made as of _______________, 2003 by and among Tulix Systems, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the "Company"), HomeCom Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("HomeCom"), and the holders of the Company's Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto (the "Founding Shareholders"). RECITALS -------- A. HomeCom and the Company are parties to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of ___________, 2003 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which HomeCom has sold to the Company, and the Company has purchased from HomeCom, substantially all of the assets used in the operation of HomeCom's hosting and website maintenance business in exchange for consideration that includes, among other things, fifteen percent (15%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings: (a) "HomeCom Holder" shall mean HomeCom and those direct and indirect transferees, assignees and successors of HomeCom that own shares of Common Stock of record at the relevant time. The transferees, assignees and successors of HomeCom that shall be considered "HomeCom Holders" for purposes of this Agreement shall be limited to the first five (5) direct or indirect transferees, assignees and successors of HomeCom. (b) "Initial Public Offering" shall mean the closing of the sale of the Company's Common Stock in a firm commitment, underwritten public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (other than a registration relating solely to a transaction under Rule 145 under such Act or any successor thereto) or to an employee benefit plan of the Company. (c) "Securities" shall mean and include all shares of capital stock of the Company, any shares of capital stock of the Company or another entity that may be issued in exchange for or in respect of shares of capital stock of the Company (whether pursuant to stock split, stock dividend, combination, reclassification, reorganization, or any other means), and any right or instrument that contains any feature, conditional or otherwise, whereby any shares of such capital stock of the Company may be obtained. (d) "Shareholders" shall mean the HomeCom Holders and the Founding Shareholders. (e) "Shareholder's Pro Rata Percentage" shall mean, at any time, that percentage calculated by dividing the number of shares of Common Stock held by a Shareholder by the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock held by all Shareholders at such time. (f) "Shares" shall mean and include all Securities now owned or hereafter acquired by the Shareholders. 2. Right of First Offer. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions specified in this Section 2, the Company hereby grants to the Shareholders a right of first offer with respect to future sales by the Company of its Securities ("Later Securities"). A Shareholder who chooses to exercise the right of first offer may designate as purchasers under such right itself or its affiliates in such proportions as it deems appropriate. (b) Mechanics. Each time the Company proposes to offer any Later Securities, the Company shall first make an offering of such Later Securities to the Shareholders in accordance with the following provisions: (i) The Company shall give written notice ("Offer Notice") to each Shareholder stating (A) its bona fide intention to offer such Later Securities, (B) the number of such Later Securities to be offered, (C) the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such Later Securities, and (D) such Shareholder's respective Shareholder's Pro Rata Percentage. (ii) Within twenty (20) calendar days after receipt of the Offer Notice, each Shareholder may elect, by written notice to the Company (the "Reply Notice"), to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Offer Notice, up to that number of such Later Securities determined by multiplying such Shareholder's Pro Rata Percentage by the total number of Later Securities specified in the Offer Notice. The Company shall sell to each Shareholder the number of Later Securities specified in each Shareholder's Reply Notice promptly following receipt of such Reply Notice. (iii) In the event that some Shareholders do not elect to fully subscribe for any Later Securities during the period specified in Section 2(b)(ii) above, the Company shall deliver, promptly upon the expiration of the period specified in Section 2(b)(ii) above, a notice (the "Second Offer Notice") to the Shareholders who have elected to purchase Later Securities in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(b)(ii) (the "Subscribing Shareholders"), which Second Offer Notice shall state (A) the number of unsubscribed Later Securities and (B) the number of such unsubscribed Later Securities that each Subscribing Shareholder is entitled to purchase, which number shall be calculated for each Subscribing Shareholder by multiplying the number of unsubscribed Later 2 Securities by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Later Securities for which such Subscribing Shareholder subscribed pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii) above and the denominator of which is the total number of Later Securities for which all Subscribing Shareholders subscribed pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii) above. Within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of the Second Offer Notice, each Subscribing Shareholder shall give written notice to the Company specifying the number of unsubscribed Later Securities that such Subscribing Shareholder elects to purchase, and the Company shall sell such number of Later Securities to such Subscribing Shareholder promptly after receipt of such notice. (c) The Company may, during the ninety (90) calendar day period following the expiration of both of the periods referenced in subsections 2(b)(ii) and 2(b)(iii) hereof, offer the remaining unsubscribed portion of the Later Securities to any person or persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than, those specified in the Offer Notice. If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the Later Securities within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within ninety (90) calendar days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such Later Securities shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Shareholders in accordance herewith. (d) The right of first offer granted pursuant to this Section 2 shall not apply to the issuance of any Exempt Securities, as that term is defined in Section 4(b) below. 3. Right of Co-Sale. (a) The Shareholders shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, mortgage, encumber or dispose of all or any of their Shares except to the other Shareholders, to the Company or as expressly provided in this Agreement. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph (a), each Shareholder may transfer all or any of its Shares on one or more occasions (i) by way of gift to any member(s) of his family or to any trust or custodianship for the benefit of any such family member(s) or the Shareholder, provided that any such transferee shall agree in writing with the Company and the Shareholders, as a condition to such transfer, to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent as if such transferee were a Shareholder (unless such transferee is a transferee of HomeCom not entitled to rights as a HomeCom Holder pursuant to Section 1(a)), (ii) by will or the laws of descent and distribution, in which event each such transferee shall be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent as if such transferee were a Shareholder (unless such transferee is a transferee of HomeCom not entitled to rights as a HomeCom Holder pursuant to Section 1(a)), or (iii) by pledge of the Shares to any lender or creditor, provided that the restrictions set forth in Section 3 hereof shall apply in connection with any sale of such Shares upon foreclosure or acceptance of such Shares in lieu of foreclosure, or (iv) if the transferring Shareholder is a HomeCom Holder, by transfer of any or all of such HomeCom Holder's Shares on one or more occasions to a person that is, or upon completion of such transfer will be, a HomeCom Holder, provided that each HomeCom Holder shall be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. As used herein, the word "family" shall include any spouse, lineal ancestor or descendant (natural or adopted), brother or sister, or their spouses. 3 (c) If at any time a Shareholder (a "Selling Shareholder") desires to sell all or any part of the Shares owned by him (the "Selling Shareholder Shares") to any person or entity other than one or more of the other Shareholders (the "Purchaser") and other than pursuant to Section 3(b) above (an "Offer"), such Selling Shareholder shall give written notice of such proposed sale or transfer to all of the Shareholders (the "Co-Sale Notice"), which Co-Sale Notice shall identify the Purchaser and specify the number of Selling Shareholder Shares, the price and the payment terms of the proposed sale. Each of the other Shareholders shall have the right to sell to the Purchaser, as a condition to such sale by the Selling Shareholder, at the same price per share and on the same terms and conditions as involved in such sale by the Selling Shareholder, a number of Shares calculated by multiplying (i) the total number of Selling Shareholder Shares by (ii) such Shareholder's respective Shareholder's Pro Rata Percentage. (d) Each Shareholder wishing to so participate in any sale under this Section 3 (a "Participating Shareholder") shall notify the Selling Shareholder in writing of such intention as soon as practicable after such Shareholder's receipt of the Co-Sale Notice delivered pursuant to Section 3(c), and in any event within twenty (20) calendar days after the date of receipt of such Co-Sale Notice from the Selling Shareholder, with such Participating Shareholder's notice to specify the number of Shares to be sold by the Participating Shareholder. (e) In the event that some Shareholders do not elect to fully participate in the Offer during the period specified in Section 3(d) above, the Selling Shareholder shall deliver a notice (the "Second Co-Sale Notice") to the Participating Shareholders, which Second Co-Sale Notice shall state (A) the aggregate number of Shares that the Shareholders were eligible to sell pursuant to Section 3(c) but did not elect to sell (the "Unsold Shares") and (B) the number of Unsold Shares that each Participating Holder is entitled to sell to Purchaser, which number shall be calculated by multiplying the number of Unsold Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Shares that each Participating Shareholder elected to sell to Purchaser pursuant to Section 3(d) above and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Shares that all Participating Shareholders elected to sell to Purchaser pursuant to Section 3(d) above. Within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of the Second Co-Sale Notice, each Participating Shareholder shall give written notice to the Company specifying the number of Unsold Shares that such Participating Shareholder elects to sell to Purchaser. (f) Following the expiration of both of the periods referred to in Section 3(d) and Section 3(e), or at such earlier time as the Selling Shareholder, the Participating Shareholders and the Purchaser may agree upon, the Selling Shareholder and each Participating Shareholder shall sell to the Purchaser all or, at the option of the Purchaser, any part of the Shares proposed to be sold by them at not less than the price and upon other terms and conditions, if any, not more favorable to the Purchaser than those in the Offer provided by the Selling Shareholder under Section 3 above; provided, however, that any purchase of less than all of such Shares by the Purchaser shall be made from the Selling Shareholder and each Participating Shareholder pro rata based upon the relative amount of the Shares that the Selling Shareholder and each Participating Shareholder had decided to sell after complying with Section 3(c), Section 3(d) and Section 3(e). 4 (g) Any Shares sold by a Shareholder to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 3, other than Shares transferred pursuant to Section 3(b), shall no longer be subject to the restrictions imposed by this Agreement and shall no longer be entitled to the benefits conferred by this Agreement. 4.

(a) In the event that the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, sell or issue any Securities (any sale or issuance of Securities other than pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) below being referred to herein as a "Subsequent Issuance") other than issuances (i) of Exempt Securities as defined in subsection (b) immediately below, or (ii) to Shareholders pursuant to rights of first offer granted pursuant to Section 2 hereof, unless, in such instance, the only Securities being issued pursuant to Section 2 are being issued to Founding Shareholders, in which case the issuance of such Securities shall be considered a Subsequent Issuance, then, upon each Subsequent Issuance, the Company shall issue to the HomeCom Holders additional shares of Common Stock such that the aggregate ownership interest of the HomeCom Holders shall remain at fifteen percent (15.0%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, on a fully-diluted basis. In such instances, the Company will issue to each HomeCom Holder a number of shares of Common Stock calculated by multiplying the total number of shares to be issued by the Company to all the HomeCom Holders by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Shares held by such HomeCom Holder and the denominator of which is the number of Shares held by all HomeCom Holders at such time. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "fully-diluted" shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding plus the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion or exercise of all outstanding Securities.

Financial Information and Inspection Rights. For so long as HomeCom Holders continue to own at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares of Common Stock issued to the HomeCom Holders on the date hereof, the Company shall permit the HomeCom Holders, at the HomeCom Holders' expense, to visit and inspect the Company's properties, to examine its books of account and records and to discuss the Company's affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, all at such reasonable times as may be requested by the HomeCom Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this Section 5 to provide access to any information which it reasonably considers to be a trade secret or similar confidential information and provided, further, that the HomeCom Holders shall not be entitled to exercise the inspection rights granted pursuant to this Section 5 more than two times per year. In addition, the Company shall provide to the HomeCom Holders, upon the written request of any HomeCom Holder, with copies of the Company's unaudited financial statements, including a balance sheet, an income statement, and a statement of cash flows (the "Financial Statements"); provided, however, that the Company shall be obligated to provide the Financial Statements to the HomeCom Holders not more than two times per year. 6.

The indebtedness evidenced hereby may be prepaid in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty. Any such prepayments shall be credited first to any accrued and unpaid interest and then to the outstanding principal balance hereof. Time is of the essence of this Note. This Note is secured pursuant to the terms of that certain Security Agreement, of even date herewith, between Maker and Payee, as amended, supplemented or restated from time to time (the "Security Agreement"). It is hereby expressly agreed that in the event that any Event of Default shall occur under and as defined in the Security Agreement, which Event of Default is not cured following the giving of any applicable notice and within any applicable cure period set forth in the Security Agreement, then, and in such event, the entire outstanding principal balance of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, together with any other sums advanced hereunder, under the Security Agreement and/or under any other instrument or document now or hereafter evidencing, securing or in any way relating to the indebtedness evidenced hereby, together with all unpaid interest accrued thereon, shall, at the option of Holder and without notice to Maker, at once become due and payable and may be collected forthwith, regardless of the stipulated date of maturity.

All such interest shall be paid at the time of and as a condition precedent to the curing of any such Event of Default. In the event this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, or if Holder incurs any costs incident to the collection of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, Maker and any endorsers hereof agree to pay to Holder an amount equal to all such costs, including without limitation all reasonable attorneys' fees and all court costs. Presentment for payment, demand, protest and notice of demand, protest and nonpayment are hereby waived by Maker and all other parties hereto. No failure to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced hereby by reason of an Event of Default hereunder, acceptance of a past-due installment or other indulgences granted from time to time, shall be construed as a novation of this Note or as a waiver of such right of acceleration or of the right of Holder thereafter to insist upon strict compliance with the terms of this Note or to prevent the exercise of such right of acceleration or any other right granted hereunder or by applicable law. No extension of the time for payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or any installment due hereunder, made by agreement with any person now or hereafter liable for payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of Maker hereunder or that of any other person now or hereafter liable for payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, either in whole or in part, unless Holder agrees otherwise in writing.

All agreements herein made are expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of proceeds hereof, acceleration of maturity of the unpaid balance hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Holder for the use of the money advanced or to be advanced hereunder exceed the Maximum Rate. If, from any circumstances whatsoever, the fulfillment of any provision of this Note or any other agreement or instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing or in any way relating to the indebtedness evidenced hereby shall involve the payment of interest in excess of the Maximum Rate, then, ipso facto, the obligation to pay interest hereunder shall be reduced to the Maximum Rate; and if from any circumstance whatsoever, Holder shall ever receive interest, the amount of which would exceed the amount collectible at the Maximum Rate, such amount as would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance remaining unpaid hereunder and not to the payment of interest. This provision shall control every other provision in any and all other agreements and instruments existing or hereafter arising between Maker and Holder with respect to the indebtedness evidenced hereby. 2 This Note is intended as a contract under and shall be construed and enforceable in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, except to the extent that federal law may be applicable to the determination of the Maximum Rate. Whenever possible, each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Note. Maker hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court and of all state courts sitting in New Castle County, Delaware, for the purpose of any litigation to which Holder may be a party and which concerns this Note or the indebtedness evidenced hereby.

Continuing Security Interest; Transfer of Interest This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full (the "Termination Date"), provided, however, that the security interest in the Collateral created by this Agreement shall continue after the Termination Date with respect to any Secured Obligations that arose prior to the Termination Date, (b) be binding upon Debtor and its permitted successors and assigns and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Secured Party hereunder, to the benefit of the Secured Party and its respective successors, transferees and assigns. Upon any termination of the security interests granted hereby, all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Debtor to the extent such Collateral shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof and the Secured Party will, at Debtor's expense, execute and deliver to Debtor such documents as Debtor shall reasonably request and take any other actions reasonably requested to evidence or effect such termination.

SECTION 12. Waivers, Non-Exclusive Remedies, Severability No failure on the part of Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any power, right or privilege under the Note or this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by Secured Party of any such power, right or privilege under the Note or this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or privilege. The rights in this Agreement and the Note are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall not affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations under this Agreement. 8 SECTION 13. Successors and Assigns This Agreement is for the benefit of HomeCom and its successors and assigns, and in the event of an assignment of all or any of the Secured Obligations, the rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the Secured Obligations so assigned, may be transferred with such Secured Obligations. This Agreement shall be binding on Debtor and its successors and assigns, provided that Debtor shall not assign this Agreement without Secured Party's prior written consent. SECTION 14. Changes in Writing No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by Debtor therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Secured Party and Debtor. SECTION 15. Applicable Law This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Except as otherwise provided, the obligations of the Shareholders hereunder shall be binding upon their heirs, personal representatives, executors, administrators, successors and assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the HomeCom Holders, and any transferee thereof who is identified to the Company as a partner, shareholder or affiliate of a HomeCom Holder. Each of the parties consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or state courts in the State of Delaware in connection with any dispute arising under this Agreement and hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any objection, including any objection based on forum non conveniens, to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdiction. Each party hereto waives its right to trial by jury in any such proceeding. SECTION 16. Expenses Debtor shall pay all costs, fees and expenses of protecting, storing, warehousing, appraising, insuring, handling, maintaining and shipping the Collateral, all costs, fees and expenses of enforcing the Security Interests, and any and all excise, property, sales and use taxes imposed by any federal, state, local or foreign authority on any of the Collateral, or with respect to periodic appraisals and inspections of the Collateral, or with respect to the sale or other disposition thereof. All sums so paid or incurred by Secured Party for any of the foregoing, any and all other sums for which Debtor may become liable hereunder and all fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees, legal expenses and court costs) incurred by Secured Party in enforcing or protecting the Security Interests or any of their rights or remedies under this Agreement shall be payable on demand, shall constitute Secured Obligations, shall bear interest until paid at the highest rate provided in the Note and shall be secured by the Collateral. SECTION 17. Counterparts This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. For the purposes of executing this Agreement, (a) a 9 document signed and transmitted by facsimile or telecopier shall be treated as an original document; (b) the signature of any party on such document shall be considered as an original signature; (c) the document transmitted shall have the same effect as a counterpart thereof containing original signatures; and (d) at the request of Secured Party, Borrower, who executed this Agreement and transmitted the signature by facsimile or telecopier, shall provide such original signature to Secured Party. No party may raise as a defense to the enforcement of this Agreement that a facsimile or telecopier was used to transmit any signature of a party to the Note. SECTION 18. Severability It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the law and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, in the event that any provision of this Agreement would be held in any jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable for any reason, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Witness the due execution hereof by the respective duly authorized officers of the undersigned as of the day first above written. DEBTOR: TULIX SYSTEMS, INC.
