          the extent of their pecuniary interest therein.

     (c)  The principal business of each of the Reporting Persons is that of

          any of the general partners or managing members referred to in
          paragraph (a) above has, during the last five years, been a party to a
          civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent

          judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or
          prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state
          securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

     (f)  Each of the individuals referred to in paragraph (a) above is a United
          States citizen.

     The Reporting Persons purchased the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and
Series B Preferred Stock held by them and may purchase additional shares of
Common Stock upon exercise of the Common Stock Warrants, in order to obtain an
equity position in the Company for investment purposes.

     The Reporting Persons may from time to time acquire shares of Common Stock
or dispose of shares of Common Stock through open market or privately negotiated
transactions, or otherwise, depending on existing market conditions and other
considerations discussed below.  Each of the Reporting Persons intends to review
its investment in the Company on a continuing basis and, depending upon the
price and availability of shares of the Company's Common Stock, subsequent
developments affecting the Company, the Company's business and prospects, other
investment and business opportunities available to such Reporting Person,
general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other
factors considered relevant, may decide at any time to increase, or to decrease,
the size of its investment in the Company.

and SV Associates VII entered into the Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the
Company agreed to issue and sell, and Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII
agreed to purchase, shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the Series A Closing
and the Company agreed to issue to Sierra Ventures VII and SV Associates VII the

Closing, as set forth in Item 3 above.  In addition, the liquidation preference
applicable to the Series B Preferred Stock increases at the rate of 8.00% per
year, compounded quarterly, from the date of issue, and as the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion is tied to the liquidation preference,
the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock
