the price per share equal to the Deemed Purchase Price Per Share, at any time or
from time to time, on or after the Effective Date (as defined below) and prior
to 5:00 P.M. Rochester, New Hampshire time, on the Termination Date (as defined
below), all subject to the terms, conditions and adjustments set forth herein.
This Stock Purchase Right is one of the Subsidiary Stock Purchase Rights
(the "Stock Purchase Rights") originally issued in connection with the execution
and delivery of the Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement dated as
of August 29, 2000 (as from time to time in effect, the "Purchase Agreement")
among Cabletron Systems, Inc. and the investors named therein (the "Investors").
The Stock Purchase Rights originally so issued evidence rights to purchase an
aggregate of 5,166,666 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment as provided

in Section 11 hereof.
The shares of Common Stock subject to this Stock Purchase Right may be
purchased on any Business Day commencing on the Business Day that is ten
Business Days prior to the date of the earliest to occur of the following (such

filed by the Company in connection with its Pre-Spin-Off IPO is declared
effective by the Commission, such purchase to be subject to the consummation of
the Company's Pre-Spin-Off IPO; (ii) the date of the consummation of a Third-
Party Sale of the Company; and (iii) the date of the consummation of the Spin-
Off of the Company to shareholders of Cabletron Systems, Inc. without the
Company's having first engaged in a Pre-
Spin-Off IPO. In case of a Third-Party Sale, shares of Common Stock received
upon purchase shall be entitled to participate in the proceeds of such Third-
Party Sale to the same extent as other holders of Common Stock are entitled to
participate, regardless of the structure of such Third-Party Sale.
The right to purchase shares of Common Stock subject to this Stock
Purchase Right will terminate on the date (the "Termination Date") of the
earliest to occur of the following: (i) the date on which the registration
statement filed by the Company in connection with its Pre-Spin-Off IPO is
declared effective by the Commission (if not purchased on or prior to such
date); (ii) the date of the consummation of a Third-Party Sale of the Company
(if not purchased on or prior to such date); (iii) the twentieth Business Day
following completion of the Spin-Off of the Company to shareholders of Cabletron
Systems, Inc. without the Company's having first consummated a Pre-Spin-Off IPO
(if not purchased on or prior to such date); (iv) the issuance of Replacement
Rights in respect of the cancellation of this Stock Purchase Right; and (v) four
years from the date hereof; provided, however, that in each case, the
Termination Date shall be extended to the extent necessary to permit the Company
and the holder of this Stock Purchase Right to obtain any necessary antitrust
and other regulatory approvals for such purchase; and provided, further, that if
the Termination Date as determined by the preceding provisions of this sentence
(other than clause (iv) hereof) shall occur on a day other than a Business Day,
the Termination Date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. The
Company shall provide the holder of this Stock Purchase Right with written
notice of the occurrence of the Effective Date not less than ten Business Days
prior to such Effective Date.
1. PURCHASE OR CONVERSION OF STOCK PURCHASE RIGHT.
1.1. Manner of Purchase or Conversion; Payment.
1.1.1. Purchase. The shares of Common Stock subject to this Stock
Purchase Right may be purchased by the holder hereof, in whole or in part,

Right to the Company at its office maintained pursuant to Section 10.2(a)
hereof, accompanied by a subscription in substantially the form attached to this
Stock Purchase Right (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) duly executed by such
holder. Within ten Business Days of such surrender, such holder shall make a
payment to the Company, in cash, by certified check payable to the order of the
Company or by wire transfer (or by any combination of such methods), in the
amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of shares of Common Stock (without
giving effect to any adjustment thereof) designated in such subscription by (b)
the Deemed Purchase Price Per Share, and such holder shall thereupon be entitled
to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as
provided in Sections 2 and 3 hereof.
1.1.2. Conversion. This Stock Purchase Right may be converted by the

business hours on any Business Day on or prior to the Termination Date, by
surrender of this Stock Purchase Right to the Company at its office maintained
pursuant to Section 10.2(a) hereof, accompanied by a conversion notice in
substantially the form attached to this Stock Purchase Right (or a reasonable
2
facsimile thereof) duly executed by such holder, and such holder shall thereupon
be entitled to receive a number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) equal to:
(i) an amount equal to:
(a) an amount equal to (x) the number of shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) determined as provided in Sections 2
and 3 hereof which such holder would be entitled to receive
upon purchase of shares of Common Stock pursuant to this
Stock Purchase Right for the number of shares of Common Stock
designated in such conversion notice multiplied by (y) the
Market Price on the date of conversion of each such share of
Common Stock (or such Other Securities) so receivable upon
such purchase
minus
(b) an amount equal to (x) the number of shares of Common Stock
(without giving effect to any adjustment thereof) designated
in such conversion notice multiplied by (y) the Deemed
Purchase Price Per Share
divided by
(ii) such Market Price of each such share of Common Stock (or Other
Securities).
For all purposes of this Stock Purchase Right (other than this Section 1.1), any
reference herein to the purchase of shares of Common Stock pursuant to this
Stock Purchase Right shall be deemed to include a reference to the conversion of
this Stock Purchase Right into Common Stock (or other Securities) in accordance
with the terms of this Section 1.1.2.
1.2. When Purchase Effective. Each purchase of shares of Common Stock
pursuant to this Stock Purchase Right shall be deemed to have been effected
immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day on which this
Stock Purchase Right shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in
Section 1.1 hereof, and at such time the Person or Persons in whose name or
names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) shall be issuable upon such purchase as provided in Section 1.3
hereof shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record thereof.
1.3. Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc. Promptly after each purchase of
shares of Common Stock subject to this Stock Purchase Right, in whole or in
part, and in any event within five Business Days of receipt by the Company of
payment of the purchase price therefor, the Company at its expense (including
the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the
name of and delivered to the holder hereof or, subject to Section 8 hereof, as
such holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may
direct:
3
(a) a certificate or certificates for the number of duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or
Other Securities) to which such holder shall be entitled upon such purchase
plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such holder would otherwise
be entitled, cash in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Market
Price per share on the Business Day next preceding the date of such
purchase; and
(b) in case such purchase is in part only, a new Stock Purchase Right
or Stock Purchase Rights of like tenor, dated the date hereof and calling
in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of
Common Stock equal (without giving effect to any adjustment thereof) to the
number of such shares called for on the face of this Stock Purchase Right
minus the number of such shares designated by the holder upon such purchase
as provided in Section 1.1 hereof.
1.4. Mandatory Purchase. Subject to Section 8.6 of the Purchase Agreement,
the Company may require the holder to purchase all or any portion of shares of
Common Stock subject to this Stock Purchase Right by providing the holder with
written notice not less than five Business Days prior to the date of pricing of
the Company's Pre-Spin-Off IPO; provided, however, that such required purchase
shall be subject to the consummation of the Company's Pre-Spin-Off IPO.
2. ADJUSTMENT OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON PURCHASE.
2.1. General; Number of Shares; Specified Amount. The number of shares of
Common Stock which the holder of this Stock Purchase Right shall be entitled to
receive upon each purchase shall be determined by multiplying the number of
shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 2) be issuable upon such purchase, as designated by the holder hereof
pursuant to Section 1.1 hereof, by the fraction of which (i) the numerator is
the Initial Specified Amount Per Share and (ii) the denominator is the Specified
Amount in effect on the date of such purchase. The "Specified Amount" shall
initially be the Initial Specified Amount Per Share, shall be adjusted and
readjusted from time to time as provided in this Section 2 and, as so adjusted
or readjusted, shall remain in effect until a further adjustment or readjustment
thereof is required by this Section 2.
2.2. Treatment of Stock Dividends, Stock Splits, etc. In case the Company
at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall declare or pay any
dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common
Stock, or shall effect a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a greater number of shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or
otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock), then, and in
each such case, additional shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been
issued (a) in the case of any such dividend or other distribution, immediately
after the close of business on the record date for the determination of holders
of any class of securities entitled to receive such dividend, or (b) in the case
of any such subdivision, immediately after the close of business on the day
immediately prior to the day upon which such corporate action becomes effective.
Effective at the time such additional shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to
have been issued, the Specified Amount shall be reduced to a price (calculated
to the nearest .001 of a cent)
4
determined by multiplying the Specified Amount in effect immediately prior to
such time by a fraction:
(x) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such time; and
(y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding at such time (including the shares of Common Stock deemed
to have been issued at such time in respect of any such dividend or
subdivision).
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2, no adjustment of
the Specified Amount shall take place in respect of any dividend or distribution
referred to in this Section 2.2 if such dividend is not actually paid (whether
or not a record date therefor shall have been declared).
2.3. Adjustments for Combinations, etc. In case the outstanding shares of
Common Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or
otherwise, into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then, and in each
such case, the Specified Amount shall be increased, concurrently with the
effectiveness of such combination or consolidation, to a price, calculated to
the nearest .001 of a cent, determined by multiplying the Specified Amount in
effect immediately prior to such combination or consolidation by a fraction:
(x) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of such combination
or consolidation; and
(y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding at the time of such effectiveness after giving effect to
such combination or consolidation.
3. CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC.
3.1. Adjustments for Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets, Reorganization,
etc. In case the Company after the date hereof (a) shall consolidate with or
merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving
corporation of such consolidation or merger, or (b) shall permit any other
Person to consolidate with or merge into the Company and the Company shall be
the continuing or surviving Person but, in connection with such consolidation or
merger, the Common Stock or Other Securities shall be changed into or exchanged
for stock or other securities of any other Person or cash or any other property,
or (c) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to
any other Person, or (d) shall effect a capital reorganization or
reclassification of the Common Stock or Other Securities (other than a capital
reorganization or reclassification to the extent that such capital
reorganization or reclassification results in the issue of additional shares of
Common Stock for which adjustment in the Specified Amount is provided in Section
2 hereof), then, and in the case of each such transaction, proper provision
shall be made so that, upon the basis and the terms and in the manner provided
in this Stock Purchase Right, the holder of this Stock Purchase Right, upon the
purchase hereto of
5
shares of Common Stock subject to this Stock Purchase Right at any time after
the consummation of such transaction, shall be entitled to receive (at the
aggregate Deemed Purchase Price Per Share in effect at the time of such
consummation for all Common Stock or Other Securities issuable upon such
purchase immediately prior to such consummation), in lieu of the Common Stock or
Other Securities issuable upon such purchase prior to such consummation, the
greatest amount of securities, cash or other property to which such holder would
actually have been entitled as a shareholder upon such consummation if such
holder had purchased the shares of Common Stock represented by this Stock
Purchase Right immediately prior thereto (assuming such shareholder failed to
purchase any shares of Common Stock and received per share the kind and amount
of consideration receivable per share by a plurality of all shares of Common
Stock not so purchased), subject to adjustments (subsequent to such
consummation) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for
in Sections 2 and 3 hereof.
3.2. Assumption of Obligations. Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Stock Purchase Right to the contrary, the Company will not effect any of the
transactions described in clauses (a) through (d) of Section 3.1 hereof unless,
prior to the consummation thereof, each person (other than the Company) which
may be required to deliver any stock, securities, cash or property upon the
purchase of shares of Common Stock subject to this Stock Purchase Right as
provided herein shall assume, by written instrument delivered to the holder of
this Stock Purchase Right, (a) the obligations of the Company under this Stock
Purchase Right (and if the Company shall survive the consummation of such
transaction, such assumption shall be in addition to, and shall not release the
Company from, any continuing obligations of the Company under this Stock
Purchase Right), and (b) the obligation to deliver to such holder such shares of
stock, securities, cash or property as, in accordance with the foregoing
provisions of this Section 3, such holder may be entitled to receive.
4. NO DILUTION OR IMPAIRMENT. The Company will not, by amendment of its
certificate of incorporation or through any consolidation, merger,
reorganization, transfer of assets, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or
any other voluntary action, take any action to avoid or to seek to avoid the
observance or performance of any of the terms of this Stock Purchase Right, but
will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and
in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to
protect the rights of the holder of this Stock Purchase Right specifically
provided herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company
(a) will not permit the par value of any shares of stock receivable upon the
purchase of shares of Common Stoke subject to this Stock Purchase Right to
exceed the amount payable therefor upon such purchase, (b) will take all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly
and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of stock on the purchase
of shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Purchase Rights from time to time
outstanding, and (c) will not take any action which results in any adjustment of
the Specified Amount if the total number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) issuable after the action upon the purchase of all of the shares of
Common Stock subject to Stock Purchase Rights would exceed the total number of
shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) then authorized by the Company's
certificate of incorporation and available for the purpose of issue upon such
purchase.

5. REPORT AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in
the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon the purchase of
shares of Common Stock subject to this Stock Purchase Right, the Company will
promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of
this Stock Purchase Right and prepare a report setting forth such adjustment or
readjustment and showing in reasonable detail the method of calculation thereof
and the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a
statement of the Actual Purchase Price Per Share and Specified Amount in effect
immediately prior to and after giving effect to such adjustment or readjustment.
The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such report to each holder of a
Stock Purchase Right and will, upon the written request at any time of any
holder of a Stock Purchase Right, furnish to such holder a like report setting
forth the Actual Purchase Price Per Share and Specified Amount at the time in
effect and showing in reasonable detail how it was calculated. The Company will
also keep copies of all such reports at its office maintained pursuant to
Section 10.2(a) hereof and will cause the same to be available for inspection at
such office during normal business hours by any holder of a Stock Purchase Right
or any prospective purchaser of a Stock Purchase Right designated by the holder
thereof.
6. NOTICES OF CORPORATE ACTION. In the event of
(a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class
of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are
entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any
class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right,
or
(b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or
recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation
or merger involving the Company and any other Person or any transfer of all
or substantially all the assets of the Company to any other Person, or
(c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-
up of the Company,
the Company will mail to each holder of a Stock Purchase Right a notice
specifying (i) the date or expected date on which any such record is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and
character of such dividend, distribution or right, and (ii) the date or expected
date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization,
consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to
take place, and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the
holders of record of Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) for the securities
or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification,
recapitalization, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up.
7. LISTING OF COMMON STOCK. At any time Common Stock is listed or admitted to
trading (as applicable) on any national securities exchange or designated as a
National Market
7
System security by the NASD, the Company will, at its expense, obtain promptly
and maintain the approval for listing and admission to trading (as applicable)

of Common Stock issuable upon purchase thereof pursuant to the terms of the then
outstanding Stock Purchase Rights and maintain the listing or trading (as

such purchase pursuant to the terms of all Stock Purchase Rights at the time
outstanding. All shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon the
purchase thereof pursuant to the terms of any Stock Purchase Rights shall be
duly authorized and, when issued upon such purchase, shall be validly issued
and, in the case of shares, fully paid and nonassessable with no liability on

except that, if and when any Stock Purchase Right is properly assigned in blank,
the Company may (but shall not be obligated to) treat the bearer thereof as the
owner of such Stock Purchase Right for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice
