The Parent Common Stock will be allotted and issued to the shareholders of Company (collectively, the "COMPANY SHAREHOLDERS"), in each case in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding Company Capital Stock (as defined in Section 1.2(c)). (c) DEFINITIONS. "CLOSING PRICE" means the average of closing prices of Parent Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market for the five consecutive trading days ending on the trading day two days prior to the Closing Date, as reported in the Wall Street Journal. "COMPANY CAPITAL STOCK" means the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, including, without limitation or duplication, all shares of such stock that are issuable upon the conversion of Company Preferred Stock, exercise of any outstanding options, warrants and other rights thereto which are vested as of the Effective Time. "COMPANY EXCHANGE NUMBER" means the quotient of (i) the Stock Merger Consideration divided by (ii) the total number of shares of Company Capital Stock as of the Effective Time LESS the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of 1,095,238 shares of Company Series B Stock. "LOI PRICE" means $5.064. 2 "STOCK MERGER CONSIDERATION" means the number of shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number) of Parent Common Stock equal to (i) if the Closing Price is less than $3.545, 1,967,953, (ii) if the Closing Price is greater than or equal to $3.545 and less than or equal to $4.051, $6,976,000 divided by the Closing Price; (iii) if the Closing Price is greater than $4.051 and less than $6.077, 1,721,959, (iv) if the Closing Price is greater than or equal to $6.077 and less than or equal to $6.583, $10,464,000 divided by the Closing Price; and (v) if the Closing Price is greater than $6.583, 1,589,500. (d) ADJUSTMENTS FOR CAPITAL CHANGES. If, between the date hereof and the Effective Time (as to the Parent Common Stock to be issued at the Effective Time), Parent (i) recapitalizes either through a split-up of its outstanding shares into a greater number of shares, or through a combination of its outstanding shares into a lesser number of shares, (ii) reorganizes, reclassifies or otherwise changes its outstanding shares into the same or a different number of shares of other classes (other than through a split-up or combination of shares provided for in the previous clause), or (iii) declares a dividend on its outstanding shares payable in shares or securities convertible into shares, the calculation of the Company Exchange Number will be proportionally and equitably adjusted. (e) CONTINUATION OF VESTING AND CERTAIN REPURCHASE RIGHTS. If any shares of Company capital stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time are unvested or are subject to a repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other similar condition providing that such shares may be forfeited or repurchased by Company upon any termination of the shareholders' employment, directorship or other relationship with Company (and/or any affiliate of Company) under the terms of any restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement with Company (such shares being referred to herein as "COMPANY RESTRICTED STOCK") then the Parent Common Stock issued upon the conversion of such shares of Company Capital Stock in the Merger will continue to be unvested and subject to the same repurchase options, risks of forfeiture or other similar conditions following the Effective Time. The certificates representing such Parent Common Stock may accordingly be marked with appropriate legends noting such repurchase options, risks of forfeiture or other similar conditions. (f) FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Merger, but in lieu thereof, the holder of any shares of Company Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will receive, promptly after the Effective Time, an amount of cash equal to the last sale price on the Nasdaq National Market of Parent Common Stock on the last trading day prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by the fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise be entitled at the Effective Time. (g) CALCULATION. Unless specified otherwise herein, each calculation called for by this Agreement shall be carried out to five (5) decimal places. (h) MAXIMUM PARENT STOCK ISSUABLE. Under no circumstances shall the sum of (i) the Stock Merger Consideration and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to holders of unvested Company Options and Company Restricted Stock and all other shares of capital stock of Company not included in the definition of Company 3 Capital Stock exceed 3,160,000.

Holders of Dissenting Shares (if any) will be entitled to appraisal rights under Section 1300 ET. SEQ. of the California General Corporation Law ("CALIFORNIA LAW") with respect to such Dissenting Shares and such Dissenting Shares will not be converted into Parent Common Stock in the Merger. Shares of Company Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger and with respect to which dissenting shareholders' rights of appraisal under California Law have either (a) not been properly exercised and perfected or (b) with the consent of Company and Parent, been withdrawn, will, when such dissenting shareholders' rights can no longer be legally exercised under California Law, be converted into Parent Common Stock and cash, if applicable, as provided in Section 1.2(b). "DISSENTING SHARES" means any shares of Company capital stock that (i) are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) with respect to which dissenters' rights to obtain payment for such dissenting shares in accordance with Section 1300 ET.

(a) At the Effective Time, each of the then outstanding Company Options shall, by virtue of the Merger, and without any further action on the part of any holder thereof, be assumed by Parent and converted into an option to purchase that number of Parent Common Stock (a "PARENT OPTION") obtained by multiplying the number of Company Common Stock issuable under such Company Option by the Company Exchange Number. If the foregoing calculation results in a Company Option being exercisable for a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock, then the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to such option shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares. The exercise price of each Company Option shall be equal to the exercise price of the Company Option from which such Parent Option was converted divided by the Company Exchange Number, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 1.4, the term and vesting schedule, status as an "incentive stock option" under Section 422 of the Code, if applicable, and all the terms and conditions of each Parent Option will, to the extent permitted by law and otherwise reasonably practicable, be the same in all material respects as the corresponding Company Option. An optionholder's continuous employment with Company shall be credited as employment with Parent for purposes of determining the vesting of the Parent Options.

Company will take or cause to be taken, all actions that are necessary, proper, or advisable under the Stock Plans to make effective the transactions contemplated by this Section 1.4. "COMPANY OPTIONS" means any option or warrant granted and not exercised or expired, to a current or former employee, director or independent contractor or consultant of Company or any predecessor thereof or to any other party to purchase Company Stock pursuant to any stock option, warrant, stock bonus, stock award or stock purchase plan, program or arrangement of Company or any predecessor thereof (collectively, the "STOCK PLANS") or any other contract or agreement entered into by Company. 4 (b) Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery pursuant to the terms set forth in this Section 1.4. As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the assumed Company Options to be registered, or to be issued pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-8 (or successor form) promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 ACT") and shall use reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement or registration statements for so long as such Parent Options remain outstanding and Parent Common Stock is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 ACT"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be obligated to register or maintain the registration under the 1933 Act of the issuance of any Parent Common Stock that is subject to a Parent Option held by a person who is ineligible to have such person's securities registered on Form S-8 (or successor form). 1.5 EFFECTS OF THE MERGER. At the Effective Time: (a) the separate existence of Company will cease and Company will be merged with and into Merger Sub and Merger Sub will be the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "SURVIVING CORPORATION") pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Merger and the separate existence of Company will thereupon cease; (b) the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation will be in substantially the forms attached hereto as EXHIBIT B-1 and EXHIBIT B-2; (c) each share of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock (collectively "COMPANY STOCK") outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive and will become exchangeable for, Parent Common Stock or cash, as applicable, as provided in Section 1.2(b); (d) each share of common stock of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will, by virtue of the Merger and without further action on the part of the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, constitute one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation (no shares of Company Stock shall be outstanding immediately after the Effective Time); (e) each share of Company's capital stock held by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof; (f) the directors and executive officers of Merger Sub will constitute the directors and executive officers of the Surviving Corporation; and (g) the Merger will, at and after the Effective Time, have all of the effects provided by applicable law. 1.6 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Company and the Significant Shareholders agree that if, at any time after the Effective Time, Parent considers or is advised that any further deeds, assignments or assurances are reasonably necessary or desirable to vest, perfect, confirm or continue in the Surviving Corporation, Merger Sub or Parent, title to any property or rights of Company as provided herein, Parent and any of its officers are hereby authorized by Company and the Significant Shareholders to execute and deliver all such proper deeds, assignments and assurances and do all other things necessary or desirable to vest, perfect, confirm or continue title to such property or rights in the Surviving Corporation, Merger Sub or Parent, and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, in the name of Company and the Significant Shareholders or otherwise. 1.7 SECURITIES LAW ISSUES; REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Based in part on the representations of Company Shareholders made in the Investment Representation Letters, the 5 Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger will be issued pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act and/or Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act and exemptions from qualification under applicable state securities laws. Parent and Company Shareholders will enter into a registration rights agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT C (the "REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT") with respect to the Parent Common Stock to be issued to Company Shareholders. Subject to compliance by Parent with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, holders of Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger will be wholly responsible for compliance with all federal and state securities laws regarding the sale, transfer or other disposition of such shares. Parent will file any required Nasdaq Stock Market notification forms for a change in the number of shares outstanding and for listing of additional shares with respect to the Parent Common Stock issued in the Merger and subject to the Parent Options. 1.8 TAX-FREE REORGANIZATION. The parties intend that the Merger shall constitute a non-taxable reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. However, Parent makes no representations or warranties to Company or to any Company Shareholder or other holder of Company securities regarding the tax treatment of the Merger, whether the Merger will qualify as a tax-free plan of reorganization under the Code, or any of the tax consequences to any Company Shareholder or such holder of this Agreement, the Merger or any of the other transactions or agreements contemplated hereby, and Company and the Company Shareholders acknowledge that Company and the Company Shareholders are relying solely on their own tax advisors in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 1.9 PURCHASE ACCOUNTING.

The date of expiration of an Indemnified Person's right to seek recovery of Damages (as defined below) for a particular claim for indemnification hereunder (a "CLAIM") shall be referred to as the "RELEASE DATE" for such Claim. The representations and warranties of Parent and Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement shall terminate as of the Closing (without prejudice to any rights Company Shareholders may have for any violations of applicable law). 8.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY SHAREHOLDERS. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 8.2, the Company Shareholders will jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless Parent, its Subsidiaries, and its respective officers, directors, agents and employees, and each person, if any, who controls or may control Parent within the meaning of the 1933 Act (hereinafter in this Section 8.2 referred to individually as an "INDEMNIFIED PERSON" and collectively as "INDEMNIFIED PERSONS") from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, losses, reductions in value that result in a charge or expense under GAAP), costs, damages, liabilities and expenses including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees (collectively, "DAMAGES") directly or indirectly caused by or arising out of: (a) any failure, inaccuracy, misrepresentation, breach or default of or in, any of the representations, warranties and covenants of Company (contained in this 41 Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of Company pursuant hereto or in connection herewith) and the Significant Shareholders (contained in this Agreement or their Investment Representation Letters); and (b) any fraudulent conduct, fraudulent misrepresentation or other willful misconduct on the part of Company or any officer, director, employee or agent of Company or any Significant Shareholder in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 8.3 LIMITATIONS.

With respect to Special Damages, Parent shall (notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein) be entitled, at its sole discretion, to recover against the Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and/or pursue separate claims against the Company Shareholders (which claims shall to the extent practicable be resolved according the procedures set forth in Section 9.1). 9. MISCELLANEOUS 9.1 GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION. The internal laws of the State of California (irrespective of its conflicts of law principles) will govern the validity of this Agreement, the construction of its terms, and the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the parties hereto. Any dispute hereunder ("DISPUTE") shall be settled by arbitration in Santa Clara County, California, and, except as herein specifically stated, in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA RULES") then in effect. However, in all events, these arbitration provisions shall govern over any conflicting 42 rules which may now or hereafter be contained in the AAA Rules. Any judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the subject matter thereof. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding instituted to resolve a Dispute. (a) COMPENSATION OF ARBITRATOR. Any such arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator who will be compensated for his or her services at a rate to be determined by the parties or by the American Arbitration Association, but based upon reasonable hourly or daily consulting rates for the arbitrator in the event the parties are not able to agree upon his or her rate of compensation. (b) SELECTION OF ARBITRATOR. The American Arbitration Association will have the authority to select an arbitrator from a list of arbitrators who are lawyers familiar with California contract law; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such lawyers cannot work for a firm then performing services for either party, that each party will have the opportunity to make such reasonable objection to any of the arbitrators listed as such party may wish and that the American Arbitration Association will select the arbitrator from the list of arbitrators as to whom neither party makes any such objection. In the event that the foregoing procedure is not followed, each party will choose one person from the list of arbitrators provided by the American Arbitration Association (provided that such person does not have a conflict of interest), and the two persons so selected will select from the list provided by the American Arbitration Association the person who will act as the arbitrator. (c) PAYMENT OF COSTS. Parent and Company Shareholders will bear the expense of deposits and advances required by the arbitrator in equal proportions, but either party may advance such amounts, subject to recovery as an addition or offset to any award. The arbitrator will award to the prevailing party, as determined by the arbitrator, all costs, fees and expenses related to the arbitration, including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other professionals incurred by the prevailing party. (d) BURDEN OF PROOF. For any Dispute submitted to arbitration, the burden of proof will be as it would be if the claim were litigated in a judicial proceeding. (e) AWARD. Upon the conclusion of any arbitration proceedings hereunder, the arbitrator will render findings of fact and conclusions of law and a written opinion setting forth the basis and reasons for any decision reached and will deliver such documents to each party to this Agreement along with a signed copy of the award. The arbitrator may not award punitive damages. (f) TERMS OF ARBITRATION. The arbitrator chosen in accordance with these provisions will not have the power to alter, amend or otherwise affect the terms of these arbitration provisions or the provisions of this Agreement. (g) EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. Except as specifically otherwise provided in this Agreement, arbitration will be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties for any Dispute arising out of this Agreement or any Company Ancillary Agreement. 43 9.2 ASSIGNMENT; BINDING UPON SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. No party hereto may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 9.3 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, is for any reason held to any extent to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of the void or unenforceable provision. 9.4 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be an original as regards any party whose name appears thereon and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement will become binding when one or more counterparts hereof, individually or taken together, bear the signatures of all parties reflected hereon as signatories. 9.5 OTHER REMEDIES. Except as otherwise provided herein, and subject to Section 8.1, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby or by law on such party, and the exercise of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other. 9.6 AMENDMENT. Any term or provision of this Agreement may be amended, and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only by writing signed by each party to be bound thereby. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time before or after approval of Company Shareholders. 9.7 NO WAIVER. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions hereof will not be construed to be a waiver of the right of such party thereafter to enforce such provisions. The waiver by any party of the right to enforce any of the provisions hereof on any occasion will not be construed to be a waiver of the right of such party to enforce such provision on any other occasion. 9.8 EXPENSES. Each party will bear its respective expenses and fees of its own accountants, attorneys, investment bankers and other professionals incurred with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (such expenses being referred to herein as "TRANSACTION EXPENSES"). If the Merger is consummated, Parent will pay at the Closing the reasonable Transaction Expenses incurred by Company that are solely related to the Merger. If for any reason Parent pays any amounts in excess of $75,000, Parent will be entitled to treat the amount of excess payment as Damages recoverable as an uncontested claim under the Escrow Agreement, without giving effect to the Basket. 9.9 NOTICES.

Thereafter, Parent may issue such press releases, and make such other disclosures regarding the Merger, as it reasonably and in good faith determines are required under applicable securities laws or regulatory rules; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Company and its counsel will have a reasonable opportunity to review any such disclosure to be made before the Effective Time prior to its issuance. 9.15 ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

[Signature Page to Agreement and Plan of Reorganization] EXHIBIT C REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT This Registration Rights Agreement (this "AGREEMENT") is made and entered into as of July 6, 2001 by and between Silicon Image, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("PARENT"), and the individuals and entities listed on EXHIBIT A attached hereto (the "HOLDERS"). RECITALS A. This Agreement is entered into pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of June 15, 2001 (the "MERGER AGREEMENT") by and among Parent, Slice Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("MERGER SUB"), Silicon Communication Lab, Inc., a California corporation ("COMPANY"), and certain shareholders of Company (the "SIGNIFICANT SHAREHOLDERS"). B. The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Company will be merged with and into Merger Sub in a statutory merger in which all outstanding Company Stock other than Cash Out Stock (as defined in the Merger Agreement) will be converted into the right to receive, and will be exchangeable for, Parent Common Stock (and cash in lieu of fractional shares). C. As an inducement for Company to enter into the Merger Agreement, Parent desires to grant to the Holders the registration rights as contained herein. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. DEFINITIONS AND REFERENCES. Unless otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms in this Agreement have the same meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, in addition to the definitions set forth elsewhere herein, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings: "AFFILIATE" of a Holder shall mean a person who controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such Holder, or the spouse or children (or a trust exclusively for the benefit of a spouse and/or children) of such Holder. "REGISTER," "REGISTERED" and "REGISTRATION" shall refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement or similar document in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 ACT"), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such registration statement or document by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). "REGISTRABLE STOCK" shall mean (a) the Parent Common Stock issued to a Holder pursuant to the Merger Agreement; and (b) any Parent Common Stock issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right, option or other convertible security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for, or in replacement of, such Parent Common Stock. For purposes of this Agreement, any Registrable Stock shall cease to be Registrable Stock when (a) a Registration Statement covering such Registrable Stock has been declared effective and such Registrable Stock has been disposed of pursuant to such effective Registration Statement, or (b) such Registrable Stock is sold by a person in a transaction that is exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act ("RULE 144") (or any similar provision then in force) or a transaction in which the Holders' rights under this Agreement are not assigned. In addition, the Registrable Stock held by any Holder shall cease to be Registrable Stock on such date on which all of the Registrable Stock held by such Holder can be sold within a period of three months pursuant to Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in force). 2. "SHELF" REGISTRATION. Parent shall use all reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a "shelf" registration statement on Form S-3 for the public resale by the Shareholders of the Registrable Stock on a continuous or delayed basis pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1) under the 1933 Act (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT") as soon as practicable following the Closing Date. The plan of distribution indicated in the Registration Statement will include all such transactions as the Holders may reasonably request in writing prior to the filing of the Registration Statement and that can be included in the Registration Statement under the rules and regulations of the SEC. Parent shall use all reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the 1933 Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, and shall use all reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective under the 1933 Act until the later of (a) the date which is one (1) year after the Closing Date or (b) the date when all Registrable Stock covered by such Registration Statement has been sold or may be sold within a period of three months pursuant to Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in force). 3. OBLIGATIONS OF PARENT. Parent shall: (a) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Stock covered by the Registration Statement for the period required to effect the distribution of the Registrable Stock as set forth in Section 2 hereof; (b) use all reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Stock covered by the Registration Statement under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdiction within the United States and Puerto Rico as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders for the distribution of the Registrable Stock covered by the Registration Statement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Parent shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business in or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction wherein it would not but for the requirements of this paragraph (b) be obligated to do so; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that Parent shall not be required to qualify such Registrable Stock in any jurisdiction in which the securities regulatory authority requires that the Holders subject any of their Registrable Stock to the terms, provisions and restrictions of any escrow, lockup or similar agreement(s) before such authority will consent to the sale of Registrable Stock in such jurisdiction, unless the Holders agree to do so; 2 (c) furnish to the Holders such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the 1933 Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Stock owned by them that is covered by the Registration Statement; and (d) promptly notify the Holders at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made, and promptly prepare and furnish to each Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus, or a revised prospectus, as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made; PROVIDED, that in the event of a material development or transaction affecting Parent that has not yet been publicly disclosed, if Parent shall determine in good faith that it would be adversely affected by such disclosure, Parent may so notify the Holders and shall deliver to the Holders a certificate signed by an officer of Parent affirming that Parent would be adversely affected by such disclosure (such notice being referred to herein as a "DEFERRAL NOTICE"), and shall thereafter be entitled to defer preparing and furnishing such supplement or amendment until such time as it would not be so adversely affected, but in any event for a period of no more than ninety (90) days following delivery of the Deferral Notice to each Holder, at which time it shall so notify the Holders and shall prepare and furnish to the Holders any such supplement or amendment as may then be required. Following receipt of a Deferral Notice, the Holders shall not make any further sales of Registrable Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement until the Holders receive such notice, and any such amendment or supplement, from Parent. Following receipt of any supplement or amendment to any prospectus, the Holders shall deliver such amended, supplemental or revised prospectus in connection with any offers or sales of Registrable Stock, and shall not deliver or use any prospectus not so supplemented, amended or revised. If Parent issues a Deferral Notice, Parent will extend the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for an amount of time equal to the length of the deferral period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Parent may not issue a Deferral Notice more than two (2) consecutive times in any twelve (12) month period. 4. FURNISH INFORMATION. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of Parent to take any action pursuant to this Agreement that each Holder shall furnish to Parent such information regarding itself, the Registrable Stock held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as Parent shall reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with the actions to be taken by Parent hereunder. 5. EXPENSES. All expenses incurred in connection with the registration pursuant to this Agreement, excluding underwriters' or brokers' discounts and commissions, but including without limitation all registration, filing and qualification fees, word processing, duplicating, printers' and accounting fees, listing fees, messenger and delivery expenses, all fees and expenses of complying with state securities or blue sky laws, and the fees and disbursements of 3 counsel for Parent, shall be paid by Parent. Each Holder shall bear and pay the underwriting commissions and discounts and brokerage fees applicable to securities offered for his or her account in connection with any registrations, filings and qualifications made pursuant to this Agreement. 6. TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The registration rights of a Holder under this Agreement with respect to any Registrable Stock may be transferred or assigned to (a) any transferee or assignee of such Registrable Stock who, after such transfer or assignment, holds at least 5,000 shares of Registrable Stock previously held by such Holder or (b) an Affiliate of such Holder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) such Holder shall give Parent written notice prior to the time of such transfer stating the name and address of the transferee and identifying the securities with respect to which the rights under this Agreement are being transferred; (ii) such transferee shall agree in writing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, to be bound as a Holder by the provisions of this Agreement; and (iii) immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities by such transferee shall be restricted under the 1933 Act. 7. INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Stock is included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement: (a) Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, such Holder's directors and officers, each person who participates in the offering of such Registrable Stock, including underwriters (as defined in the 1933 Act), and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or participating person within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based on any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement on the effective date thereof (including any prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the 1933 Act or any amendments or supplements thereto) or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and shall reimburse each such Holder, director or officer of such Holder, and such participating person or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage or liability; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage or liability if such settlement is effected without the consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); PROVIDED, FURTHER, that Parent shall not be liable to any Holder, director or officer of such Holder, participating person or controlling person in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage or liability to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in connection with the Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, director or officer of such Holder, participating person or controlling person; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that Parent shall not be liable to any Holder, director or officer of such Holder, participating person or controlling person in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage or liability to the extent that it arises out of an offer or sale by such Holder in violation of any of such Holder's obligations under Section 3(d). Such indemnity shall remain in full force and 4 effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any such Holder, director or officer of such Holder, participating person or controlling person, and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Holder, and any termination of this Agreement. (b) Each Holder severally and not jointly shall indemnify and hold harmless Parent, each of its directors and officers, each person, if any, who controls Parent within the meaning of the 1933 Act, and each agent and any underwriter for Parent (within the meaning of the 1933 Act) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which Parent or any such director, officer, controlling person, agent or underwriter may become subject, under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise solely out of or are based solely upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement (including any prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the 1933 Act or any amendments or supplements thereto) or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, preliminary or final prospectus, or amendments or supplements thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration); and each such Holder shall reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Parent or any such director, officer, controlling person, agent or underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage or liability; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage or liability if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the liability of each Holder hereunder shall be limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Stock covered by such Registration Statement. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the indemnifying party and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with all fees and expenses thereof to be paid by such indemnified party, and to be apprised of all progress in any proceeding the defense of which has been assumed by the indemnifying party. The failure of any indemnified party to notify an indemnifying party promptly of the commencement of any such action, if and to the extent such failure materially adversely affects such indemnifying party's ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 7, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 7. No indemnifying party shall, in the defense of any such claim, except with the consent of the indemnified party (not be unreasonably withheld), consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein, to such indemnified party, of a release from all liability with respect to such claim. 5 (d) To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 8. RULE 144 REPORTING. With a view to making available to Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Stock to the public without registration, Parent agrees to use all reasonable efforts, at all times until the second anniversary of the Closing, to: (a) File with the SEC in a timely manner all reports required of Parent under Section 13 of the 1934 Act; and (b) So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Stock, furnish to the Holder forthwith upon written request, a written statement by Parent as to its compliance with the reporting requirements under Section 13 of the 1934 Act. 9. GENERAL PROVISIONS. (a) NOTICES. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given under this Agreement will be in writing, will be delivered personally or by facsimile (evidenced by confirmation showing successful transmission) or by mail or express delivery, postage prepaid, and will be deemed given upon actual delivery or, if mailed by registered or certified mail, on the fifth business day following deposit in the U.S. mails, addressed as follows: If to a Holder: If to Parent: At the address set forth on EXHIBIT A Silicon Image, Inc. 1060 East Arques Ave. Sunnyvale, CA 94086 6 Attn: General Counsel Fax: (408) 830-9531 with a copy to: Fenwick & West LLP 275 Battery, Suite 1500 San Francisco, CA 94111 Attention: David K. Michaels, Esq. Fax: (415) 281-1350 or to such other address as a party designates in a writing delivered to each of the other parties hereto. (b) ENTIRE AGREEMENT; INDEPENDENCE OF OBLIGATIONS. This Agreement constitutes and contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior negotiations, correspondence, agreements, understandings, duties or obligations between the parties respecting the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Merger Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. (c) GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without regard to conflicts of law principles. (d) SEVERABILITY. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, then such provision(s) shall be excluded from this Agreement and the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision(s) were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. (e) THIRD PARTIES. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any person, other than the parties hereto and their successors and assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement. (f) SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to the provisions of Section 6, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

(h) COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

(j) ADJUSTMENTS FOR STOCK SPLITS, ETC. Wherever in this Agreement there is a reference to a specific number of Parent Common Stock, upon the occurrence of any subdivision, combination or share dividend of such class of shares, the specific number of shares so referenced in this Agreement shall automatically be proportionally adjusted to reflect the effect on the outstanding shares of such class or series of shares by such subdivision, combination or share dividend. (k) ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES. Any disputes arising under this Agreement shall be subject to the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 9.1 of the Merger Agreement. (l) JOINDER. The parties hereto agree that upon the execution and delivery by any Holder of a counterpart of this Agreement, such Holder shall automatically become a party to this Agreement without further action by Parent. The failure of any Holder who is entitled to receive shares of Registrable Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement to execute and deliver a counterpart to this Agreement on or before the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement shall not preclude such Holder's Registrable Stock from being included in the Registration Statement.

EXHIBIT D ESCROW AGREEMENT This Escrow Agreement (this "AGREEMENT") is made and entered into as of July 6, 2001 (the "EFFECTIVE DATE"), by and among Silicon Image, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("PARENT"), the persons and entities listed on EXHIBIT A hereto (collectively, the "COMPANY SHAREHOLDERS" and each individually, a "COMPANY SHAREHOLDER") who immediately prior to the closing and consummation of the Merger (as defined below) are all of the shareholders of Silicon Communication Lab, Inc., a California corporation ("COMPANY"), Don (Jen-Dong) Yuh, as the shareholder agent of the Company Shareholders (the "SHAREHOLDER AGENT") and State Street Bank and Trust Company of California, N.A., as Escrow Agent (the "ESCROW AGENT"). RECITALS A. Parent, Company, Slice Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("MERGER SUB"), and certain of the Company Shareholders have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "PLAN") dated as of June 15, 2001, pursuant to which Company shall be merged with and into Merger Sub in a forward triangular merger (the "MERGER"), with Merger Sub to be the surviving corporation of the Merger (the "SURVIVING CORPORATION"). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto. B. Section 1.10 of the Plan provides that the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash are to be deducted and withheld from the Merger Consideration and placed in an escrow account (the "ESCROW ACCOUNT") to secure certain indemnification obligations of Company Shareholders to Parent and other Indemnified Persons under Section 8 of the Plan on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The number of Escrow Shares and amount of Escrow Cash initially required to be deposited in the Escrow Account by each Company Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement, the taxpayer identification number of each Company Shareholder, the percentage interest of each Company Shareholder in the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash and the Closing Price are set forth on EXHIBIT A attached hereto. C. Each Company Shareholder is entering into this Agreement as a material inducement and consideration for Parent to enter into the Plan and consummate the Merger and as a condition precedent to consummation of the Merger. The parties desire to set forth in this Agreement the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall be deposited, held in, and disbursed from the Escrow Account. NOW, THEREFORE, each of the parties hereto hereby agrees as follows: 1. ESCROW AND INDEMNIFICATION (a) ESCROW OF SHARES. Promptly after the Closing Date, Parent or its transfer agent shall deposit the Escrow Shares to be deducted and withheld from the shares of Parent Common Stock issued to the Comany Shareholders in the Merger with the Escrow Agent in the manner contemplated by Section 2(a) of this Agreement, accompanied by the required stock powers and a written notice making reference to this Agreement and identifying the shares so deposited as the Escrow Shares. Promptly after the Closing Date, Parent shall also deposit the Escrow Cash with the Escrow Agent in the manner contemplated by Section 2(b) of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash in escrow as collateral for the indemnification obligations of the Company Shareholders under Section 8 of the Plan until the Escrow Agent is required to release such Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent agrees to accept delivery of the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash and to hold such Escrow Shares (and stock powers) and Escrow Cash in escrow subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the term "ESCROW SHARES" shall include the "INITIAL ESCROW SHARES" and all "ADDITIONAL ESCROW SHARES", as those terms are defined in Sections 2(a) and 2(c) of this Agreement. (b) INDEMNIFICATION. Parent and the other Indemnified Persons are indemnified pursuant to the terms of Section 8 of the Plan (which terms are incorporated herein by reference) from and against any Claims (as defined below), subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8 of the Plan and in this Agreement. The Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall be security for these indemnification obligations, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 8 of the Plan and this Agreement. As set forth in the Plan, Don (Jen-Dong) Yuh shall act as the initial Shareholder Agent of the Company Shareholders for purposes of this Agreement, and is duly authorized to be and act as such Shareholder Agent and may bind the Company Shareholders as provided herein. (c) NOTICE OF CLAIM. As used herein, the term "CLAIM" means a claim for indemnification under Section 8 of the Plan or made by Parent or any other Indemnified Person. Parent is authorized to make Claims on behalf of any other Indemnified Person. An Indemnified Person shall give written notice of a Claim (a "NOTICE OF CLAIM") to the Shareholder Agent and the Escrow Agent as promptly as reasonably practicable after either: (i) discovery, after the Closing, of any fact or circumstance that gives rise to indemnification rights under Section 8 of the Plan; or (ii) discovery, after the Closing, of verbal or written notice to Parent or to any other Indemnified Person of any claim, demand, suit, action, arbitration, investigation, inquiry or proceeding brought by a third party against such Indemnified Person that is based upon or includes facts or assertions that would, if true, give rise to indemnification rights under Section 8 of the Plan (a "THIRD-PARTY CLAIM"). Any Indemnified Person may give a Notice of Claim at any time prior to the close of the Escrow Period (as defined in Section 1(d) of this Agreement) in order to seek recovery of Damages against the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash pursuant to this Agreement. No delay on the part of any Indemnified Person in giving the Shareholder Agent notice of a Claim shall relieve the Shareholder Agent or any Company Shareholder from any of its obligations under Section 8 of the Plan or this Agreement unless (and then only to the extent that) the Shareholder Agent and the Company Shareholders are materially prejudiced thereby. (d) ESCROW PERIOD. As used herein, the term "ESCROW PERIOD" means that time period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date. Parent shall deliver to Escrow Agent written notice of the Closing Date, on which Escrow Agent may rely without inquiry. -3- (e) THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS. (i) Parent shall defend any Third-Party Claim, and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the costs and expenses incurred by Parent in connection with such defense (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees, other professionals' and experts' fees and court or arbitration costs) shall be included in the Damages related to or resulting from a Claim for which an Indemnified Person may seek indemnity pursuant to a Claim made hereunder. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Shareholder Agent will have the right, at the Shareholder Agent's sole option, and at Company Shareholders' sole cost and expense, to assume and control the defense of Parent and all other Indemnified Persons against a Third-Party Claim with reputable legal counsel of the Shareholder Agent's choice that is reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the other affected Indemnified Person(s) so long as: (A) the Shareholder Agent notifies Parent and each affected Indemnified Person in writing within ten (10) days after the Indemnified Person has given notice to the Shareholder Agent of the Third-Party Claim that the Shareholder Agent intends to undertake such defense; (B) the Shareholder Agent provides Parent and each Indemnified Person with reasonably acceptable evidence that the Shareholder Agent has and will have the financial resources to defend against the Third-Party Claim and fulfill its defense and indemnification obligations under the Plan and this Agreement; (C) the Third-Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief (unless all affected Indemnified Persons agree in writing that the Shareholder Agent may nevertheless control the defense of such action for an injunction or other equitable relief); (D) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third-Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Persons, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice materially adverse to the continuing business interests of Parent; (E) Damages sought under such Third-Party Claim, together with Damages sought under any other Claims then in dispute or pending, cannot reasonably be expected to exceed the value of the Escrow Shares, (valued at the Closing Price Per Share (as defined in Section 4(e) of this Agreement)) and Escrow Cash available at that time; (F) the Shareholder Agent conducts the defense of the Third-Party Claim actively and diligently; and (G) the legal counsel chosen by the Shareholder Agent does not have any conflict of interest in representing the interests of Parent or any of the affected Indemnified Person(s). (ii) So long as the Shareholder Agent is conducting the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 1(e)(i) above: (A) Parent and each Indemnified Person may retain separate co-counsel and participate in the defense of the Third-Party Claim at its own cost and expense (except as provided below) and shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to the Third-Party Claim to the extent no privilege is thereby waived; (B) Parent and each Indemnified Person may participate in settlement negotiations with respect to the Third-Party Claim; and (C) the Shareholder Agent will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim unless (1) Parent and each of the affected Indemnified Persons consent thereto in writing (which consent will not unreasonably be withheld) or (2) the settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release from all liability with respect to the Third-Party Claim in favor of Parent and each Indemnified Person. -4- (iii) If the Shareholder Agent does not elect to assume control of or otherwise participate in the defense or settlement of any Third-Party Claim, or if the Shareholder Agent does so elect but any of the conditions in Section 1(e)(i) above is not satisfied or becomes unsatisfied, or if the Shareholder Agent ceases at any time to actively and diligently defend the Third-Party Claim, then: (A) Parent and the affected Indemnified Person(s) may control the defense of and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Shareholder Agent (1) shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to the Third-Party Claim so long as the receipt of such documents by the Shareholder Agent does not affect any privilege relating to the Indemnified Person, and (2) may participate in settlement negotiations with respect to the Third-Party Claim, and Parent and the Indemnified Person(s) shall not enter into any settlement of such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Shareholder Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and (B) the Shareholder Agent will remain responsible to indemnify Parent and all Indemnified Person(s) for all Damages they may incur arising out of, resulting from or caused by the Third-Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in Section 8 of the Plan. (f) ESCROW DEDUCTIONS. Payments for finally determined Claims shall be satisfied ratably from the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash in proportion to the relative values of the aggregate amount of Escrow Shares (valued at the Closing Price) and Escrow Cash issued in the Merger, with (i) deductions from the Escrow Shares of the Company Shareholders being made ratably in proportion to their respective percentage interests in the Escrow Shares set forth on EXHIBIT A and (ii) deductions from the Escrow Cash of the Company Shareholders being made ratably in proportion to their respective percentage interests in the Escrow Cash set forth on EXHIBIT A. (g) NO ELECTION OF REMEDIES. Parent and any other Indemnified Person may institute Claims against the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash and in satisfaction thereof may retake Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash, as the case may be, in accordance with this Agreement without making any claims directly against Company or any Company Shareholder and without rescinding or attempting to rescind the transactions consummated pursuant to the Plan. The assertion of any single Claim hereunder will not bar Parent or any other Indemnified Person from asserting other Claims hereunder. Parent and any other Indemnified Person need not exhaust any other remedies that may be available to it, but rather may proceed directly in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. 2. DEPOSIT OF ESCROW SHARES AND ESCROW CASH; RELEASE FROM ESCROW. (a) DELIVERY OF ESCROW SHARES. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date: (i) the Escrow Shares allocable to each Company Shareholder as shown on EXHIBIT A (the "INITIAL ESCROW SHARES") shall be delivered by Parent or Parent's transfer agent to the Escrow Agent in the form of duly authorized stock certificates for such shares issued in the respective names of the Company Shareholders; and (ii) each of the Company Shareholders shall deliver to the Escrow Agent three (3) stock powers in the form of EXHIBIT B attached hereto covering such Initial Escrow Shares, each duly endorsed and bearing a medallion signature guarantee. Each Company Shareholder agrees to execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent such additional stock powers relating to the Escrow Shares as may be necessary, in the Escrow -5- Agent's opinion, to carry out its responsibilities under this Agreement. In the event Parent issues any Additional Escrow Shares (as defined below), Parent shall instruct its transfer agent to deliver such Additional Escrow Shares to the Escrow Agent, and each Company Shareholder shall deliver stock powers for such Company Shareholder's Additional Escrow Shares to the Escrow Agent, in the same manner as the Initial Escrow Shares and stock powers therefor were delivered to the Escrow Agent hereunder. Unless and until stock certificates representing Additional Shares are received by the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent may assume that none have been issued. (b) DELIVERY OF ESCROW CASH. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, the Escrow Cash allocable to the Company Shareholders as shown on EXHIBIT A shall be delivered by Parent to the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Agent shall deposit the Escrow Cash in an account at the Escrow Agent (or an affiliate or custodian acting on its behalf). The Escrow Agent shall invest Escrow Cash in accordance with Section 2(d) below. The Escrow Cash shall be maintained in the Escrow Agent's account until the release of the Escrow Cash in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement. (c) DIVIDENDS, VOTING AND RIGHTS OF OWNERSHIP. Except for dividends paid in shares of Parent stock that are declared and paid with respect to the Escrow Shares or shares of Parent Common Stock issued with respect to Escrow Shares and resulting from a stock split or subdivision ("ADDITIONAL ESCROW SHARES"), any cash dividends, dividends payable in securities or other distributions of any kind made or paid in respect of the Escrow Shares shall be distributed currently by Parent to each Company Shareholder. The Company Shareholder shall have the right to vote the Escrow Shares deposited in the Escrow Account for the account of such Company Shareholder so long as such Escrow Shares are held in escrow, and Parent shall take all reasonable steps necessary to allow the exercise of such rights. So long as the Escrow Shares remain in the Escrow Agent's possession pursuant to this Agreement and have not been canceled as provided herein or repurchased by Parent, the Company Shareholder shall retain and shall be able to exercise voting rights with respect to such Escrow Shares and all other incidents of ownership of said Escrow Shares that are not inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Parent and the Company Shareholders will arrange for the payment of dividends and the delivery of proxies and other notices among themselves, and the Escrow Agent need not be involved. (d) INVESTMENT OF ESCROW CASH The Escrow Agent shall invest Escrow Cash in the SSgA U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund or, with the prior written consent of Parent, in another money market mutual fund registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the principal of which is invested solely in obligations issued or guaranteed by the United States Government. All interest or any other income earned with respect to such investment shall be retained by the Escrow Agent as part of Escrow Cash until distributed in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement. For tax reporting purposes, all such income shall be allocated to the Company Shareholders in accordance with their respective percentage interests in the Escrow Cash set forth on EXHIBIT A. (e) DISTRIBUTIONS TO COMPANY SHAREHOLDERS. On the date upon which the Escrow Period expires (the "FINAL RELEASE DATE"), the Escrow Agent shall release from escrow to each Company Shareholder such Company Shareholder's Escrow Property (as defined below) -6- OTHER THAN any of such Company Shareholder's Escrow Property that has previously been delivered to an Indemnified Person or that are owed to an Indemnified Person and are to be canceled and/or forfeited in accordance with Section 4 in satisfaction of Claims by an Indemnified Person or that are otherwise subject to a pending Claim by an Indemnified Person. As used in this Agreement, a "COMPANY SHAREHOLDER'S ESCROW PROPERTY" refers to and means the Initial Escrow Shares allocable to such Company Shareholder and the Additional Escrow Shares allocable to such Company Shareholder, if any, and the Escrow Cash allocable to such Company Shareholder, if any. (f) RELEASE OF ESCROW SHARES AND ESCROW CASH. The Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall be held by the Escrow Agent until such Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash are required to be released pursuant to either: (i) Section 2(e) of this Agreement; or (ii) when required under applicable provisions of Section 4 of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall deliver to the Company Shareholders or to Parent (who is authorized to accept delivery of Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash on behalf of any Indemnified Person), as applicable hereunder, the requisite number of Escrow Shares or amount of Escrow Cash to be released on such applicable date as is called for by this Agreement. Such delivery of Escrow Shares shall be in the form of stock certificate(s) registered in the name of such Company Shareholders or Parent, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement. Such delivery of Escrow Cash shall be in the form of a check in the name of such Company Shareholders or Parent, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall coordinate with Parent's transfer agent who shall cause such stock certificates to be registered in the appropriate names as determined by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement. Parent shall give the Escrow Agent prompt written notice of the name and address of any new transfer agent for Parent's Common Stock. Parent and the Shareholder Agent undertake to deliver a prompt written notice to the Escrow Agent identifying the number of Escrow Shares or amount of Escrow Cash to be released to each of the Company Shareholders and/or Parent, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement. Unless the Escrow Agent is instructed otherwise by Parent and the Shareholder Agent, Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash released to the Company Shareholders shall be released to each of them in proportion to their respective percentage interests in the Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash as set forth in EXHIBIT A hereto. The Escrow Agent shall use good faith efforts (with Parent's assistance) to have such stock certificates in its possession by delivery from Parent's transfer agent no later than two (2) business days prior to the day on which the Escrow Agent is to deliver such certificates to the Company Shareholders. Cash shall be paid in lieu of any fraction of an Escrow Share held by any Company Shareholder (computed for each Company Shareholder by aggregating all Escrow Shares held by such Company Shareholder) in an amount equal to the applicable fraction of an Escrow Share multiplied by the Closing Price, such price per share to be adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar event affecting Parent Common Stock (each a "CAPITAL CHANGE"), whether occurring at or after the Closing Date. Parent shall distribute, or Parent shall provide to the Escrow Agent and Escrow Agent shall distribute, cash in lieu of fractional Escrow Shares; provided, neither Parent nor Escrow Agent shall be obligated to disburse such cash amount to any Company Shareholder until such Company Shareholder delivers applicable Tax Reporting Documentation (as defined in Section 8(e) of this Agreement) duly completed and executed by such Company Shareholder. -7- Parent shall be deemed to have purchased the fractional shares for which it has provided cash-in-lieu payments. (g) NO ENCUMBRANCE. No Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash or any beneficial interest therein may be pledged, encumbered, sold, assigned or transferred (including any transfer by operation of law), by a Company Shareholder or be taken or reached by any legal or equitable process in satisfaction of any debt or other liability of such Company Shareholder, prior to the delivery to such Company Shareholder of such Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for determining or enforcing compliance with this Section 2(g), except that the Escrow Agent shall retain possession of the stock certificates evidencing the Escrow Shares and the Escrow Cash as required by this Agreement. (h) POWER TO TRANSFER ESCROW SHARES. The Escrow Agent is hereby granted the power to effect any transfer of Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash contemplated by this Agreement. Parent shall cooperate with the Escrow Agent in causing Parent's transfer agent to promptly issue stock certificates to effect such transfers. (i) LEGEND. Stock certificates representing Escrow Shares will (until they are released to the Company Shareholders or Parent in accordance with this Agreement) bear the following legend indicating that they are subject to this Agreement: "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN ESCROW AGREEMENT AMONG THE ISSUER, THE HOLDER THEREOF, DON (JEN-DONG) YUH (AS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE HOLDER THEREOF), AND STATE STREET BANK AND TRUST COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA, N.A. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER." (j) UPDATING. Parent and the Shareholder Agent shall promptly deliver to the Escrow Agent a revised EXHIBIT A to update the information contained therein following the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) a Capital Change, (ii) any issuance of Additional Escrow Shares; (iii) any change in the Closing Price; or (iv) any change in the information set forth in EXHIBIT A regarding the Company Shareholders. Unless and until the Escrow Agent receives such revised EXHIBIT A, the Escrow Agent may assume without inquiry that the last EXHIBIT A it received remains in effect and that such exhibit has not been, and is not required to be, modified. 3. CONTENTS OF NOTICE OF CLAIM. (a) Each Notice of Claim given pursuant to Section 1(c) of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall contain the following information to the extent it is reasonably available: (i) Statement of the amount of the Damages that Parent or any other affected Indemnified Person believes have been actually incurred in connection with the Claim -8- and statement of its good faith estimate of the reasonably foreseeable maximum amount of the alleged Damages that will ultimately be incurred in connection with such Claim, which amount of estimated future Damages may, without limitation, include the amount of damages claimed by a third party plaintiff in an action brought against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Indemnified Person based upon or including facts or assertions which, if true, would give rise to Damages; and (ii) A brief description in reasonable detail of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to the alleged Damages based on Parent's or any other affected Indemnified Person's good faith belief thereof, including, without limitation and if applicable, the identity and address of any third-party claimant (to the extent reasonably available to an Indemnified Person) and copies of any formal demand or complaint of any such third-party claimant. (b) The Escrow Agent shall not transfer any of the Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash held in the Escrow Account to Parent pursuant to a Notice of Claim until such Notice of Claim has been resolved in accordance with Section 4. 4. RESOLUTION OF CLAIMS AND TRANSFERS OF ESCROW SHARES. Any Notice of Claim received by the Shareholder Agent and the Escrow Agent pursuant to Sections 1(c) and 3 of this Agreement shall be resolved as follows: (a) UNCONTESTED CLAIMS. If, within thirty (30) calendar days after a Notice of Claim containing a statement of claimed Damages has been received by, or is deemed to have been delivered by Parent or any other Indemnified Person to, the Shareholder Agent and the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement, the Shareholder Agent has not contested such Notice of Claim in a written notice received by Escrow Agent as provided in Section 4(b) of this Agreement (an "UNCONTESTED CLAIM") and the Escrow Agent has not received written confirmation from Parent that the Shareholder Agent has paid Parent in full the amount demanded in such Notice of Claim, then the Escrow Agent shall: (i) immediately release from escrow and transfer to Parent for cancellation and/or forfeiture that number of Escrow Shares and amount of Escrow Cash having a value (as determined in accordance with Section 4(e) of this Agreement) equal to the amount of Damages specified in such Notice of Claim, which transferred and/or forfeited Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall be taken from and forfeited by the Company Shareholders in the manner set forth in Section 1(f) of this Agreement; and (ii) notify the Shareholder Agent in writing of such transfer and forfeiture of Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash as promptly as reasonably practicable. (b) CONTESTED CLAIMS. In the event that the Shareholder Agent delivers to Parent and the Escrow Agent a written notice contesting all, or a portion of, a Notice of Claim (a "CONTESTED CLAIM") and such written notice has been received by, or is deemed, under the provisions of Section 7 of this Agreement, to have been delivered to, Parent and the Escrow Agent within the thirty (30) day period described in Section 4(a) of this Agreement, then: (i) such Contested Claim shall be resolved prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period, to the extent such timing is reasonably practicable, by either (A) a written settlement agreement executed by Parent and the Shareholder Agent or (B) in the absence of such a written settlement agreement, by binding arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(c) of this Agreement. Any portion of the Notice of Claim that is not contested by the Shareholder Agent in accordance with -9- the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(b) shall be resolved as an Uncontested Claim in accordance with Section 4(a) of this Agreement. (c) ARBITRATION OF CONTESTED CLAIMS. The parties agree that any Contested Claim shall be submitted to mandatory, final and binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") or its successor and that any such arbitration shall be conducted in Santa Clara County, California. Either Parent or the Shareholder Agent may commence the arbitration process called for by this Agreement by filing a written demand for arbitration with AAA and giving a copy of such demand to each of the other parties to this Agreement; Parent (on behalf of itself and any other Indemnified Person) and Shareholder Agent shall be the parties to the arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA RULES") then in effect. However, in all events, these arbitration provisions shall govern over any conflicting rules which may now or hereafter be contained in the AAA Rules. The AAA will have the authority to select an arbitrator from a list of arbitrators who are lawyers familiar with California contract law; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such lawyers cannot work for a firm then performing services for either party, that each party will have the opportunity to make such reasonable objection to any of the arbitrators listed as such party may wish and that the AAA will select the arbitrator from the list of arbitrators as to whom neither party makes any such objection. In the event that the foregoing procedure is not followed, each party will choose one person from the list of arbitrators provided by the AAA (provided that such person does not have a conflict of interest), and the two persons so selected will select from the list provided by the AAA the person who will act as the arbitrator. The parties covenant that they will participate in the arbitration in good faith, and that they will share in its costs in accordance with subparagraph (i) below. The provisions of this paragraph may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, and the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys' fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered. Subject to the provisions of subparagraph (vii) below, judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. (i) PAYMENT OF COSTS. Parent on the one hand, and the Shareholder Agent on the other hand, shall bear the expense of deposits and advances required by the arbitrator in equal proportions, but either party may advance such amounts, subject to recovery as an addition or offset to any award. The arbitrator shall award to the prevailing party, as determined by the arbitrator, all reasonable costs, fees and expenses related to the arbitration, including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other professionals incurred by the prevailing party. (ii) BURDEN OF PROOF. For any Contested Claim submitted to arbitration, the burden of proof shall be as it would be if the claim were litigated in a judicial proceeding governed by California law exclusively. (iii) AWARD. Upon the conclusion of any arbitration proceedings hereunder, the arbitrator shall render findings of fact and conclusions of law and a final written arbitration award setting forth the basis and reasons for any decision reached (the "FINAL AWARD") and shall deliver such documents to the Escrow Agent, the Shareholder Agent and Parent, together with a signed copy of the Final Award. Subject to the provisions of -10- subparagraph (vii) below, the Final Award shall constitute a conclusive determination of all issues in question, binding upon the Company Shareholders, the Shareholder Agent and Parent, and shall include an affirmative statement to such effect. To the extent that the Final Award determines that Parent or any other Indemnified Person has actually incurred Damages in connection with the Contested Claim through the date of the Final Award ("INCURRED DAMAGES"), the Final Award shall set forth and award to Parent or other Indemnified Person, as applicable, the amount of such Incurred Damages. In addition, the Final Award shall set forth and award to Parent or other Indemnified Person, as applicable, an additional amount of Damages equal to the reasonably foreseeable amount of alleged Damages that the arbitrator determines are reasonably likely to be incurred by Parent and/or any other Indemnified Person as a result of the facts giving rise to the Contested Claim ("ESTIMATED DAMAGES"), which amount of Estimated Damages may, without limitation, include the amount of damages claimed by a third party plaintiff in an action brought against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Indemnified Person based upon or including facts or assertions which, if true, would give rise to Damages. (iv) TIMING. The Shareholder Agent, Parent and the arbitrator shall conclude each arbitration pursuant to this Section 4 as promptly as possible for the Contested Claim being arbitrated. The parties agree that time is of the essence. (v) TERMS OF ARBITRATION. The arbitrator chosen in accordance with these provisions shall not have the power to alter, amend or otherwise affect the terms of these arbitration provisions or the provisions of this Agreement or the Plan. (vi) EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. Except as specifically otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Plan, arbitration conducted in accordance with this Agreement shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties for resolving any Contested Claim. (vii) TREATMENT OF DAMAGES. Upon the arbitrator's issuance of the Final Award in such arbitration, the arbitrator shall immediately deliver a copy of such Final Award to the Shareholder Agent, Parent and the Escrow Agent as provided above. Upon issuance of such Final Award, Parent will immediately be entitled to recover (A) the amount of any Incurred Damages determined and awarded to Parent under such Final Award and (B) the amount of Estimated Damages determined and awarded under such Final Award to the extent that such Estimated Damages do not arise from a Third-Party Claim, all in accordance with paragraph (viii) below, and such Incurred Damages and such Estimated Damages will be deemed to be owed to Parent for purposes of this Agreement. If the Final Award determines and awards any Estimated Damages to Parent that arise from a Third-Party Claim then: (i) if the actual amount of such Estimated Damages is determined by a settlement agreement or a final judgment or arbitration award prior to the Resolution Date (as defined below) for the Contested Claim with respect to which such Estimated Damages were awarded under the Final Award, then for purposes of this Agreement, the amount of such Estimated Damages owed to Parent shall be the amount so determined by such settlement agreement, judgment or award; and (ii) if the actual amount of such Estimated Damages is not so determined prior to such Resolution Date, then for purposes of this Agreement, the amount of such Estimated Damages owed to Parent shall be the amount of such Damages determined and awarded in the Final Award. As used herein, the term "RESOLUTION DATE" for a Contested Claim means the first anniversary of the Closing Date. Both -11- Incurred Damages and Estimated Damages owed to Parent are deemed to be Damages for purposes of this Agreement. (viii) RELEASE OF ESCROW SHARES AND ESCROW CASH PURSUANT TO ARBITRATION AWARD. Upon its receipt of a copy of the Final Award, the Escrow Agent shall first permit the Shareholder Agent, at the Shareholder Agent's option, the opportunity to pay to Parent the amount of Damages (if any) that are owed to Parent (as determined under paragraph (vii) above) in full in cash on or before the earlier of (i) ten (10) days after the Escrow Agent's receipt of a copy of such Final Award or (ii) the Resolution Date for the Contested Claim with respect to which such Damages are owed. Immediately following Parent's receipt of payment of Damages from Shareholder Agent, Parent shall notify the Escrow Agent of such payment. If the Escrow Agent does not receive written confirmation from Parent that such owed Damages have been paid in full in cash to Parent prior to the earlier of (i) expiration of such ten (10) day period or (ii) such Resolution Date, then the Escrow Agent will (i) immediately release from escrow and transfer to Parent for cancellation and/or forfeiture that number of Escrow Shares and amount of Escrow Cash having a value (determined in accordance with Section 4(e) of this Agreement) equal to the amount of Damages (if any) owed to Parent (as determined under paragraph (vii) above), which transferred and forfeited Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall be taken from and forfeited by each of the Company Shareholders in the manner set forth in Section 1(f) of this Agreement, and (ii) notify the Shareholder Agent in writing of such transfer and forfeiture of Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash as promptly as reasonably practicable. (d) SETTLED CLAIMS. If a Claim (including a Contested Claim) is settled by a written settlement agreement executed by the Shareholder Agent and Parent (a "SETTLED CLAIM"), then the Shareholder Agent and Parent shall promptly deliver such executed settlement agreement to the Escrow Agent together with written instructions executed by both Parent and the Shareholder Agent to the Escrow Agent ("SETTLEMENT INSTRUCTIONS") which shall, in accordance with and subject to the terms of the written settlement agreement, instruct the Escrow Agent either: (i) to release a stated number of Escrow Shares and stated amount of Escrow Cash to Parent pursuant to such settlement agreement; and/or (ii) that no action need be taken by the Escrow Agent with respect to such Claim. Upon its receipt of such settlement agreement and Settlement Instructions instructing the Escrow Agent to release Escrow Shares and of Escrow Cash to Parent, the Escrow Agent shall: (i) immediately release from escrow and transfer to Parent for cancellation and/or that number of Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash that Parent and the Shareholder Agent have agreed shall be transferred and forfeited by the Company Shareholders in such Settlement Instructions, which transferred and forfeited Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall be taken from and forfeited by each of the Company Shareholders in the manner set forth in Section 1(f) of this Agreement; and (ii) notify the Shareholder Agent in writing of such transfer and forfeiture of Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash as promptly as reasonably practicable. (e) DETERMINATION OF NUMBER OF ESCROW SHARES FORFEITED. Any amount of Damages owed to Parent or any Indemnified Person hereunder, determined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4 and not paid in cash by the Shareholder Agent in accordance with the above provisions of this Section 4, shall be immediately payable to Parent out of the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash then held by the Escrow Agent, and the forfeited -12- Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall be taken from and forfeited by the Company Shareholders in the manner set forth in Section 1(f) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, Escrow Shares shall be deemed to have a per share value equal to the Closing Price (such price per share to be adjusted to reflect any Capital Change, whether occurring at or after the Closing Date). Thus, the number of Escrow Shares to be released from escrow, forfeited by the Company Shareholders and transferred to Parent in satisfaction of a Claim for Damages (whether an Uncontested Claim, a Contested Claim or a Settled Claim) and not paid in cash as provided above or paid in Escrow Cash as provided in Section 1(f) of this Agreement shall be the amount of such Damages divided by the Closing Price (such price per share to be adjusted to reflect any Capital Change, whether occurring at or after the Closing Date). (f) MULTIPLE CLAIMS PERMITTED. The assertion of any single Claim for indemnification hereunder shall not bar Parent from asserting any other Claims hereunder. 5. LIMITATION OF ESCROW AGENT'S LIABILITY. (a) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. The Escrow Agent shall incur no liability with respect to any action taken or suffered by it in reliance upon any notice, direction, instruction, consent, statement or other document believed by it to be genuine and duly authorized, nor for any other action or inaction, except its own willful misconduct, fraud or gross negligence. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or content of any document delivered to it. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement. In all questions arising under this Agreement, the Escrow Agent may rely on the advice or opinion of counsel, and for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Escrow Agent based on such advice, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone. The Escrow Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder involving any expense unless the payment of such expense is made or provided for in a manner satisfactory to it. The Escrow Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the implied duty of good faith and fair dealing. (b) RESOLUTION OF CONFLICTING DEMANDS. In the event conflicting demands are made or conflicting notices are served upon the Escrow Agent with respect to the Escrow Account, the Escrow Agent shall have the absolute right, at the Escrow Agent's election, to do any or all of the following: (i) resign so a successor can be appointed pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement; (ii) file a suit in interpleader and obtain an order from a court of competent jurisdiction requiring the parties to interplead and litigate in such court their several claims and rights among themselves; or (iii) give written notice to the other parties that it has received conflicting instructions from Parent and the Shareholder Agent and is refraining from taking action until it receives instructions consented to in writing by both Parent and the Shareholder Agent. In the event an interpleader suit as described in clause (ii) above is brought, the Escrow Agent shall thereby be fully released and discharged from all further obligations imposed upon it under this Agreement with respect to the matters that are the subject of such interpleader suit, and Parent shall pay the Escrow Agent all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees expended or incurred by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the exercise of Escrow Agent's rights under this Section 5(b) (such costs, fees and expenses shall be treated as extraordinary fees and expenses for the purposes of Section 9 of this Agreement). Parent shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company Shareholders of any extraordinary fees and expenses of -13- Escrow Agent in the event Parent prevails in such dispute pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement. (c) INDEMNIFICATION. Each party to this Agreement other than the Escrow Agent (each an "INDEMNIFYING PARTY" and together the "INDEMNIFYING PARTIES"), hereby jointly and severally covenants and agrees to reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent's officers, directors, employees, counsel and agents (severally and collectively, "ESCROW AGENT"), from and against any loss, damage, liability or loss suffered, incurred by, or asserted against Escrow Agent (including amounts paid in settlement of any action, suit, proceeding, or claim brought or threatened to be brought and including reasonable expenses of legal counsel) arising out of, in connection with or based upon, any act or omission by Escrow Agent (not involving gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud on Escrow Agent's part) relating in any way to this Agreement or the Escrow Agent's services hereunder. The aggregate liability of the Company Shareholders to the Escrow Agent under this indemnity shall be limited to the value of the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash then in escrow hereunder. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. Any Indemnifying Party who reimburses or indemnifies the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Section 5(c) shall have a right to seek contribution from any and all other Indemnifying Parties according to their relative fault. (d) DEFENSE. Each Indemnifying Party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any claim or action that may be asserted against Escrow Agent, and if the Indemnifying Parties so elect, the Indemnifying Parties may assume the defense of such claim or action; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if there exists a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate, in the sole discretion of the Escrow Agent, for the same counsel to represent both Escrow Agent and the Indemnifying Parties, Escrow Agent's retention of separate counsel shall be reimbursable as hereinabove provided. Escrow Agent's right to indemnification hereunder shall survive Escrow Agent's resignation or removal as Escrow Agent and shall survive the termination of this Agreement by lapse of time or otherwise. (e) NOTICE TO INDEMNIFYING PARTIES. The Escrow Agent shall notify each Indemnifying Party by letter, or by telephone or telecopy confirmed by letter, of any receipt by Escrow Agent of a written assertion of a claim against Escrow Agent, or any action commenced against Escrow Agent, for which indemnification is required under Section 5(c) of this Agreement, within ten (10) days after Escrow Agent's receipt of written notice of such claim. The Indemnifying Parties will be relieved of their indemnification obligations under this Section 5 if Escrow Agent fails to timely give such notice and such failure adversely affects the Indemnifying Parties' ability to defend such claim. However, Escrow Agent's failure to so notify each Indemnifying Party shall not operate in any manner whatsoever to relieve an Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have otherwise than on account of this Section 5. (f) USE OF AGENTS. The Escrow Agent may execute any of its powers or responsibilities hereunder and exercise any rights hereunder either directly or by or through its agents or attorneys and shall be entitled to consult with its legal counsel, including in-house legal -14- counsel, as to any questions or matters arising hereunder and the reasonable, good faith written opinion of such legal counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to Escrow Agent in respect of any act or omission by Escrow Agent undertaken in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such legal counsel. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to impose upon Escrow Agent any duty to qualify to do business or to act as a fiduciary or otherwise in any jurisdiction other than the State of California. 6. SHAREHOLDER AGENT. For purposes of this Agreement, the Company Shareholders hereby consent to the appointment of the Shareholder Agent (and any replacement hereunder), as representative of the Company Shareholders, and as the agent and attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of each Company Shareholder, and, subject to the express limitations set forth below, the taking by the Shareholder Agent of any and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by the Shareholder Agent under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the exercise of the power to (i) authorize delivery to Parent of the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash, or any portion thereof, in satisfaction of Claims, (ii) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such Claims, (iii) take all actions necessary in connection with the waiver of any condition to the obligations of the Company Shareholders under this Agreement, (iv) waive any right of the Company Shareholders, (v) give and receive all notices required to be given under this Agreement, (vi) resolve any Claims and (vii) take all actions necessary in the sole judgment of the Shareholder Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing and all of the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement. The Shareholder Agent shall have unlimited authority and power to act on behalf of each Company Shareholder with respect to this Agreement and the disposition, settlement or other handling of all Claims, rights or obligations arising under this Agreement so long as all Company Shareholders are treated in the same manner. The Company Shareholders shall be bound by all actions taken by the Shareholder Agent in connection with this Agreement. Parent shall be entitled to rely on any action or decision of the Shareholder Agent, and no Company Shareholder shall have any cause of action against the Shareholder Agent for any action taken, decision made or instruction given by the Shareholder Agent under this Agreement, except for fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct (including willful breach of this Agreement) by the Shareholder Agent. In performing the functions specified in this Agreement, the Shareholder Agent shall not be liable to the Company Shareholders in the absence of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct (including willful breach of this Agreement). In the event that Shareholder Agent dies, becomes unable to perform the responsibilities hereunder or resigns as the Shareholder Agent hereunder, a substitute representative shall be appointed by the holders of a majority of the value of the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash to act as the Shareholder Agent of the Company Shareholders hereunder. The Shareholder Agent may resign as the Shareholder Agent hereunder, effective upon a new representative being appointed in writing by Company Shareholders who beneficially own a majority of the value of the Escrow Shares (valued at the Closing Price) and Escrow Cash. The Shareholder Agent shall not be entitled to receive any compensation from Parent or the Company Shareholders in connection with this Agreement. Any out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Shareholder Agent in connection with actions taken pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be paid by the Company Shareholders to the Shareholder Agent in proportion to their percentage interests in the value of the Escrow Shares (valued at the Closing Price) and Escrow Cash. Parent agrees that, in acting as Shareholder -15- Agent hereunder and performing his obligations as a Shareholder Agent hereunder, the Shareholder Agent shall not be deemed to have violated any fiduciary or similar duties (if any) that the Shareholder Agent may owe to Parent by virtue of his position(s) with Parent or its subsidiaries. Each of the Company Shareholders agree to indemnify and hold the Shareholder Agent harmless from and against all loss, liability, damages, cost or expense (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' and experts' fees and court costs) incurred by the Shareholder Agent in connection with the performance of the Shareholder Agent's duties and obligations under this Agreement (other than any loss, liability, damages, cost or expense incurred through acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the Shareholder Agent's part). The provisions of this Section are independent and severable, shall constitute an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an interest and surviving death, granted by each Company Shareholder to the Shareholder Agent and shall be binding upon the executors, heirs, legal representatives and successors of each Company Shareholder and any references in this Agreement to a Company Shareholder shall include the successor to the Company Shareholders' rights hereunder, whether pursuant to testamentary disposition, the laws of descent and distribution or otherwise. 7.

or to such other address as Parent, the Shareholder Agent or the Escrow Agent, as the case may be, designates in a writing delivered to each of the other parties hereto in accordance with this Section 7. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notices and the like addressed to the Escrow Agent shall be effective only upon receipt. The Escrow Agent may assume without inquiry (unless the Escrow Agent has written notice to the contrary) that notices received by it which are also required to be delivered to another party have, in fact, been delivered to such other party. 8. GENERAL. (a) GOVERNING LAW; ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without regard to conflicts of law principles and shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. (b) COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. (c) ENTIRE AGREEMENT. As between Parent and the Company Shareholders, except as otherwise provided in the Plan, this Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements or understandings, written or oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. As between the Escrow Agent and the other parties hereto, all such parties agree that, as set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent's duties are defined only in this Agreement, any contrary provisions of the Plan notwithstanding. (d) WAIVERS. No waiver by any party hereto of any condition or of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing. No waiver by any party of any such condition or breach, in any one instance, shall be deemed to be a further or continuing waiver of any such condition or breach or a waiver of any other condition or breach of any other provision contained herein. (e) TAX REPORTING DOCUMENTATION. If applicable, the parties hereto other than the Escrow Agent agree to provide the Escrow Agent with certified tax identification numbers for each of them by furnishing appropriate forms W-9 (or Forms W-8, in the case of non-U.S. -17- persons) and other forms and documents that the Escrow Agent may reasonably request (collectively, "TAX REPORTING DOCUMENTATION") to the Escrow Agent within 30 days after the date hereof. The parties hereto understand that, if such Tax Reporting Documentation is not so certified to the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent may be required by the Internal Revenue Code, as it may be amended from time to time, to withhold a portion of any interest or other income earned on the investment of monies or other property held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement. The Escrow Agent need not make any distribution of all or any portion of the Escrow Cash to any person until such person has furnished to the Escrow Agent such Tax Reporting Documentation as the Escrow Agent may reasonably require. (f) AGENTS. Unless expressly provided otherwise herein, any actions to be taken by Parent hereunder may also be taken by Parent's attorneys or agents. 9. COMPENSATION AND EXPENSES OF ESCROW AGENT. All fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent incurred in the ordinary course of performing its responsibilities hereunder shall be paid by Parent upon receipt of a written invoice by Escrow Agent. Any extraordinary fees and expenses, including without limitation any fees or expenses (including the fees or expenses of outside counsel to the Escrow Agent) incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with a dispute over the distribution of Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash or the validity of a Notice of Claim, shall be paid by Parent upon receipt of a written invoice by Escrow Agent; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company Shareholders shall be liable for any extraordinary fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent arising in connection with a dispute hereunder, in the event that Parent prevails in such dispute, PROVIDED such liability shall not exceed the value of the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash then in escrow. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to solicit any payments which may be due it hereunder. 10. SUCCESSOR ESCROW AGENT. In the event the Escrow Agent becomes unavailable or unwilling to continue in its capacity herewith, the Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties or obligations hereunder by giving notice of its resignation to the parties to this Agreement, specifying a date not less than thirty (30) days following such notice date of when such resignation shall take effect. Parent shall designate a successor Escrow Agent prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period by giving written notice to the escrow agent and the Shareholder Agent. Parent may appoint a successor Escrow Agent without the consent of the Shareholder Agent or the Company Shareholders so long as such successor is a bank which, together with its parent, has assets of at least $100 million, and may appoint any other successor Escrow Agent with the consent of the Shareholder Agent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If no successor escrow agent is named by Parent, the Escrow Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall promptly transfer the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash to such designated successor. 11. LIMITATION OF RESPONSIBILITY. The Escrow Agent's duties are limited to those set forth in this Agreement, and Escrow Agent, acting as such under this Agreement, is not charged with knowledge of or any duties or responsibilities under any other document or agreement, including without limitation the Plan. Escrow Agent may execute any of its powers or responsibilities hereunder and exercise any rights hereunder either directly or by or through its agents or attorneys. Nothing in this Escrow Agreement shall be deemed to impose upon the Escrow Agent any duty to qualify to do business or to act as a fiduciary or otherwise in any -18- jurisdiction other than the State of California. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for and shall not be under a duty to examine into or pass upon the validity, binding effect, execution or sufficiency of this Escrow Agreement or of any agreement amendatory or supplemental hereto. In no event shall the Escrow Agent have any duty or obligation to determine or enforce compliance with the requirements of any agreement or instrument other than this Agreement (including without limitation the Plan). 12. FORCE MAJEURE. Neither Parent nor the Shareholder Agent nor the Company Shareholders nor Escrow Agent shall be responsible for any delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall include but not be limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters. 13. REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications which may hereafter be executed, and (b) certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished, may be reproduced by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, optical disk, micro-card, miniature photographic or other similar process. The parties hereto agree that any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding, whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by a party in the regular course of business, and that any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. 14. AMENDMENT. This Agreement may be amended by the written agreement of Parent, the Escrow Agent and the Shareholder Agent, provided that, if the Escrow Agent does not agree to an amendment agreed upon by Parent and the Shareholder Agent, the Escrow Agent shall resign and Parent shall appoint a successor Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 10 above. No amendment of the Plan shall increase Escrow Agent's responsibilities or liability hereunder without Escrow Agent's written agreement.
