THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION ("Agreement") is made and entered into as of April 17, 2005, by and among: ADOBE SYSTEMS INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation ("Parent"); AVNER ACQUISITION SUB, INC., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"); and MACROMEDIA, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in EXHIBIT A.

RECITALS

A.    Parent, Merger Sub and the Company intend to effect a merger of Merger Sub into the Company in accordance with this Agreement and the DGCL (the "Merger"). Upon consummation of the Merger, Merger Sub will cease to exist, and the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

B.    It is intended that the Merger qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

C.    The respective boards of directors of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have approved this Agreement and the Merger.

D.    In order to induce Parent to enter into this Agreement and cause the Merger to be consummated, certain stockholders of the Company are executing voting agreements in favor of Parent concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (the "Company Stockholder Voting Agreements").

E.    In order to induce the Company to enter into this Agreement and consummate the Merger, certain stockholders of Parent are executing voting agreements in favor of the Company concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (the "Parent Stockholder Voting Agreements").

AGREEMENT

        The parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Section 1.    DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

1.1   Merger of Merger Sub into the Company.    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.3), Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company. By virtue of the Merger, at the Effective Time, the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "Surviving Corporation").

1.2   Effects of the Merger.    The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

1.3   Closing; Effective Time.    The consummation of the Merger (the "Closing") shall take place at the offices of Xxxxxx Godward llp, 0000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, on a date to be designated by Parent, which shall be no later than the second business day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 (other than the conditions set forth in Sections 6.7 and 7.7, which by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of such conditions). The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the "Closing Date." Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, a certificate of merger that the parties shall agree satisfies the applicable requirements of the DGCL shall be duly executed by the Company and concurrently with or as soon as practicable following the Closing shall be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Merger shall become effective at the time of the filing of such certificate of merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as may be agreed by Parent and the Company and specified in such certificate of merger (the time as of which the Merger becomes effective being referred to as the "Effective Time").

1.4   Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws; Directors and Officers.    Unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time:

(a)   the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated immediately after the Effective Time to conform to Exhibit B;

(b)   the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated as of the Effective Time to conform to the Bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time; and

(c)   the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time shall be the respective individuals who are directors and officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time.

1.5   Conversion of Shares.

(a)   At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any stockholder of the Company:

(i)    any shares of Company Common Stock held by any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time (or held in the Company's treasury) (together with any associated Company Rights, as defined in Section 2.3) shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(ii)   any shares of Company Common Stock held by Parent, Merger Sub or any other wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time (together with any associated Company Rights) shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(iii) except as provided in clauses "(i)" and "(ii)" above and subject to Sections 1.5(b), 1.5(c) and 1.5(d), each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (together with any associated Company Rights) shall be converted into the right to receive 0.69 of a share of Parent Common Stock; and

(iv)  each share of the common stock, $.001 par value per share, of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

The fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock specified in Section 1.5(a)(iii) (as such fraction may be adjusted in accordance with this Section 1.5(b)) is referred to as the "Exchange Ratio."

(b)   If, during the period from the date of this Agreement through the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, or if a stock dividend is declared by the Company or Parent during such period, or a record date with respect to any such event shall occur during such period, then the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate. For the avoidance of doubt, the fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock specified in Section 1.5(a)(iii) does not give effect to the two-for-one stock split in the form of a stock dividend announced by Parent on March 17, 2005 and having a proposed record date of May 2, 2005.

(c)   If any shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time are unvested or are subject to a repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other condition under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other Contract with the

2

Company or under which the Company has any rights, then: (i) the shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange for such shares of Company Common Stock will also be unvested and subject to the same repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other condition; and (ii) the certificates representing such shares of Parent Common Stock may accordingly be marked with appropriate legends. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, Parent is entitled to exercise any such repurchase option or other right set forth in any such restricted stock purchase agreement or other Contract.

(d)   No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. Any holder of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such holder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share and upon surrender of such holder's Company Stock Certificate(s) (as defined in Section 1.6), be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the closing price of a share of Parent Common Stock on the Parent Primary Exchange on the date the Merger becomes effective.

1.6   Closing of the Company's Transfer Books.    At the Effective Time: (a) all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist (in exchange for the right to receive the applicable consideration set forth in, and subject to, Sections 1.5 and 1.7), and all holders of certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company; and (b) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of Company Common Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid certificate previously representing any shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a "Company Stock Certificate") is presented to the Exchange Agent (as defined in Section 1.7) or to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, such Company Stock Certificate shall be canceled and shall be exchanged as provided in Section 1.7.

1.7   Exchange of Certificates.

(a)   On or prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall select a reputable bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as exchange agent in the Merger (the "Exchange Agent"). As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent: (i) certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 1.5; and (ii) cash sufficient to make payments in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 1.5(d). The shares of Parent Common Stock and cash amounts so deposited with the Exchange Agent, together with any dividends or distributions received by the Exchange Agent with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock, are referred to collectively as the "Exchange Fund."

(b)   As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent will mail to the Persons who were record holders of Company Stock Certificates immediately prior to the Effective Time: (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing such provisions as Parent may reasonably specify and the Company shall reasonably approve prior to the Effective Time (including a provision confirming that delivery of Company Stock Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Company Stock Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of such Company Stock Certificates to the Exchange Agent); and (ii) instructions for

3

use in effecting the surrender of Company Stock Certificates in exchange for certificates representing Parent Common Stock. Upon surrender of a Company Stock Certificate to the Exchange Agent for exchange, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent or Parent: (A) the holder of such Company Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.5 (and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock); and (B) the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.7(b), each Company Stock Certificate shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock (and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock) as contemplated by Section 1.5. If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition to the issuance of any certificate representing Parent Common Stock, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and to deliver a bond (in such sum as Parent may reasonably direct) as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Company Stock Certificate.

(c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no shares of Parent Common Stock (or certificates therefor) shall be issued in exchange for any Company Stock Certificate to any Person who was an "affiliate" (as that term is used in Rule 145 under the Securities Act) of the Company at the time of the Company Stockholders' Meeting (as defined in Section 5.2(a)) until such Person shall have delivered to Parent and the Company a duly executed Affiliate Agreement required by Section 5.9.

(d)   No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid or otherwise delivered to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Stock Certificate with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive in the Merger until such holder surrenders such Company Stock Certificate in accordance with this Section 1.7. Subject to applicable Legal Requirements (including applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws), following surrender of any such Company Stock Certificate, the Exchange Agent will deliver to the record holder thereof, without interest: (i) a certificate representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange therefor along with cash in lieu of any fractional share pursuant to Section 1.5(d) and the amount of any such dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time (and with a payment date prior to the date of surrender of such Company Stock Certificate) payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock; and (ii) on the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time (and with a payment date on or subsequent to the date of surrender of such Company Stock Certificate) payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock.

(e)   Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to holders of Company Stock Certificates as of the date 180 days after the date on which the Merger becomes effective shall be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any holders of Company Stock Certificates who have not theretofore surrendered their Company Stock Certificates in accordance with this Section 1.7 shall thereafter look only to Parent for satisfaction of their claims for Parent Common Stock, cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock and any dividends or distributions with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock.

(f)    Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to

4

this Agreement to any holder or former holder of Company Common Stock such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law or under any other applicable Legal Requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(g)   Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder or former holder of Company Common Stock or to any other Person with respect to any shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto), or for any cash amounts, delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property law, escheat law or other similar Legal Requirement.

1.8   Tax Consequences.    For federal income tax purposes, the Merger is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code. The parties to this Agreement adopt this Agreement as a "plan of reorganization" within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

1.9   Further Action.    If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by Parent or the Surviving Corporation to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the Company and otherwise) to take such action.

Neither the execution or delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the Merger or any of the other Contemplated Transactions, with or without notice or lapse of time, gives any Governmental Body the right to revoke, withdraw, suspend, cancel, terminate or modify any grant, incentive or subsidy identified or required to be identified in Part 2.14(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, the effect of which would or would reasonably be expected to be material to the Acquired Corporations taken as a whole.

(g)   Each of the Acquired Corporations and Company Affiliates has performed in all material respects all obligations required to be performed by it under each Company Employee Plan, and each Company Employee Plan has been established and maintained in all material respects in accordance with its terms, except as would not have and would not reasonably be expected to have or result in a Company Material Adverse Effect. Any Company Employee Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has

20

obtained a favorable determination letter (or opinion letter, if applicable) as to its qualified status under the Code (or has applied, or has time remaining in which to apply, to the IRS for such a determination letter prior to the expiration of the requisite period under applicable Treasury Regulations or IRS pronouncements in which to apply for such determination letter and to make any amendments necessary to obtain a favorable determination letter). All Company Pension Plans required to have been approved by any foreign Governmental Body have been so approved, no such approval has been revoked (or, to the knowledge of the Company, has revocation been threatened) and, to the knowledge of the Company, no event has occurred since the date of the most recent approval or application therefor relating to any such Company Pension Plan that would reasonably be expected to materially affect any such approval relating thereto or materially increase the costs relating thereto. To the knowledge of the Company, each Company Employee Plan intended to be tax qualified under applicable Legal Requirements is so tax qualified, and no event has occurred and no circumstance or condition exists that could reasonably be expected to result in the disqualification of any such Company Employee Plan. No "prohibited transaction," within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code or Sections 406 and 407 of ERISA, and not otherwise exempt under Section 408 of ERISA, has occurred with respect to any Company Employee Plan. Each Company Employee Plan (other than any Company Employee Plan to be terminated prior to the Effective Time in accordance with this Agreement) can be amended, terminated or otherwise discontinued after the Closing in accordance with its terms, without material liability to Parent, any of the Acquired Corporations or any Company Affiliate (other than any liability for ordinary administration expenses). There are no audits or inquiries pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened in writing by the IRS, the DOL or any other Governmental Body with respect to any Company Employee Plan. None of the Acquired Corporations, and no Company Affiliate, has ever incurred: (i) any material penalty or tax with respect to any Company Employee Plan under Section 502(i) of ERISA or Sections 4975 through 4980 of the Code; or (ii) any material penalty or Tax under applicable Legal Requirements. Each of the Acquired Corporations and Company Affiliates has made all contributions and other payments required by and due under the terms of each Company Employee Plan.

No Company Employee Plan is or has been funded by, associated with or related to a "voluntary employees' beneficiary association" within the meaning of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code. None of the Acquired Corporations, and no Company Affiliate, has ever maintained, established, sponsored, participated in or contributed to any Company Pension Plan in which stock of any of the Acquired Corporations or any Company Affiliate is or was held as a plan asset. The fair market value of the assets of each funded Foreign Plan, the liability of each insurer for any Foreign Plan funded through insurance, or the book reserve established for any Foreign Plan, together with any accrued contributions, is sufficient to procure or provide in full for the accrued benefit obligations, with respect to all current and former participants in such Foreign Plan according to the reasonable actuarial assumptions and valuations most recently used to determine employer contributions to and obligations under such Foreign Plan, and no Contemplated Transaction will cause any such assets or insurance obligations to be less than such benefit obligations, except as would not have and would not reasonably be expected to have or result in a Company Material Adverse Effect. There are no liabilities of the Acquired Corporations with respect to any Company Employee Plan that are not properly accrued and reflected in the financial statements of the Company in accordance with GAAP.

21

(i)    None of the Acquired Corporations, and no Company Affiliate, maintains, sponsors or contributes to any Company Employee Plan that is an employee welfare benefit plan (as such term is defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) and that is, in whole or in part, self-funded or self-insured. No Company Employee Plan provides (except at no cost to the Acquired Corporations or any Company Affiliate), or reflects or represents any liability of any of the Acquired Corporations or any Company Affiliate to provide, post-termination or retiree life insurance, post-termination or retiree health benefits or other post-termination or retiree employee welfare benefits to any Person for any reason, except as may be required by COBRA or other applicable Legal Requirements. To the knowledge of the Company, other than commitments made that involve no future costs to any of the Acquired Corporations or any Company Affiliate, none of the Acquired Corporations nor any Company Affiliate has ever represented, promised or contracted (whether in oral or written form) to any Company Associate (either individually or to Company Associates as a group) or any other Person in a legally binding manner that such Company Associate(s) or other Person would be provided with post-termination or retiree life insurance, post-termination or retiree health benefit or other post-termination or retiree employee welfare benefits, except to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements.

(j)    Except as set forth in Part 2.16(j) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, and except as expressly required or provided by this Agreement, neither the execution of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions will or could reasonably be expected to (either alone or upon the occurrence of termination of employment) constitute an event under the Change in Control Resolutions or any Company Employee Plan, Company Employee Agreement, trust or loan that will or may result (either alone or in connection with any other circumstance or event) in any payment (whether of severance pay or otherwise), acceleration, forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, increase in benefits or obligation to fund benefits with respect to any Company Associate.

(k)   Except: (i) as set forth in Part 2.16(k) of the Company Disclosure Schedule; or (ii) as would not have and would not reasonably be expected to have or result in a Company Material Adverse Effect, each of the Acquired Corporations and Company Affiliates: (A) is, and at all times has been, in compliance in all material respects with any Order or arbitration award of any court, arbitrator or any Governmental Body respecting employment, employment practices, terms and conditions of employment, wages, hours or other labor related matters; (B) has withheld and reported all amounts required by applicable Legal Requirements or by Contract to be withheld and reported with respect to wages, salaries and other payments to Company Associates; (C) is not liable for any arrears of wages or any taxes or any interest or penalty for failure to comply with the Legal Requirements applicable of the foregoing; and (D) is not liable for any payment to any trust or other fund governed by or maintained by or on behalf of any Governmental Body with respect to unemployment compensation benefits, social security, social charges or other benefits or obligations for Company Associates (other than routine payments to be made in the normal course of business and consistent with past practice), except as would not and would not reasonably be expected to result in any liability that is material to the Acquired Corporations taken as a whole.

(l)    As of the date of this Agreement, there is no agreement, plan, arrangement or other Contract covering any Company Employee, and no payments have been made or will be made to any Company Employee, that, considered individually or considered collectively with any other such Contracts or payments, will, or could reasonably be expected to, be characterized as a "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code or give rise directly or indirectly to the payment of any amount that would not be deductible pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code (or any comparable provision under state or foreign Tax laws). No

22

Acquired Corporation is a party to or has any obligation under any Contract to compensate any Person for excise taxes payable pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code.

(m)  Neither the execution nor the delivery of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of the business of any Acquired Corporation or any Company Affiliate as presently conducted nor any activity of any Company Employee in connection with the carrying on of the business of any Acquired Corporation or any Company Affiliate as presently conducted will or could reasonably be expected to, to the knowledge of the Company, conflict with, result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of or constitute a default under any Contract under which any such Company Employee is now bound.

If the Company desires to take an action that requires the prior written consent of Parent pursuant to this Section 4.2(b), the Company shall deliver to Parent a written request for such written consent, accompanied by a reasonably detailed description of the action sought to be taken and reasonably comprehensive documentation and other information supporting the Company's request. If Parent seeks any additional documentation or other information in order to decide whether to approve the Company's request, then the Company shall supply such additional documentation or other information to Parent as promptly as possible. Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to approve or deny the Company's request within five business days after Parent has received all documentation and other information supporting the Company's request, including any additional documentation or other information sought by Parent. If no such consent or denial is received by the Company within five business days after Parent has received all documentation and other information supporting the Company's request (including any additional documentation or other information sought by Parent), Parent shall be deemed to have granted its consent to the action set forth in such request.

(c)   Parent, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, shall adopt this Agreement and approve the Merger and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Except as contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise consented to by the Company, during the Pre-Closing Period, Parent shall not:

(iv)  except for actions taken in accordance with Section 5.7, take any action that would reasonably be expected to cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a "reorganization" under Section 368(a) of the Code (whether or not otherwise permitted by the provisions of this Section 4) or fail to take any action reasonably necessary to cause the Merger to so qualify; or

(v)   agree or commit to take any of the actions described in clauses "(i)" through "(iv)" of this Section 4.2(c).

(d)   During the Pre-Closing Period, Parent shall not consummate or agree to consummate a Business Acquisition in which the total consideration being paid or issued by Parent (including the value of indebtedness acquired or assumed by Parent) in exchange for the business being acquired by Parent has a fair market value in excess of $100,000,000 and that presents a material risk of materially delaying the effectiveness of the Merger or making it materially more difficult to obtain any Consents necessary to consummate the Merger, without consulting with the Company and considering the views and comments of the Company with regard to such risk of delay or increased difficulty in obtaining such Consents.

(e)   During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall promptly notify Parent in writing of: (i) the discovery by the Company of any event, condition, fact or circumstance that occurred or existed on or prior to the date of this Agreement and that caused or constitutes a material inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement; (ii) any event, condition, fact or circumstance that occurs, arises or exists after the date of this Agreement and that would cause or constitute a material inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement if: (A) such representation or warranty had been made as of the time of the occurrence, existence or discovery of such event, condition, fact or circumstance; or (B) such event, condition, fact or circumstance had occurred, arisen or existed on or prior to the date of this Agreement; (iii) any material breach of any covenant or obligation of the Company set forth in this Agreement; and (iv) any event, condition, fact or circumstance that would make the timely satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6 impossible or unlikely or that has had or would reasonably be expected to have or result in a Company Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall promptly advise Parent in writing of any Legal Proceeding or material claim overtly threatened, commenced or asserted against or with respect to any of the Acquired Corporations. No notification given to Parent pursuant to this Section 4.2(e) shall limit or otherwise affect any of the representations, warranties, covenants or obligations of the Company contained in this Agreement.

(f)    During the Pre-Closing Period, Parent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of: (i) the discovery by Parent of any event, condition, fact or circumstance that occurred or existed on or prior to the date of this Agreement and that caused or constitutes a material inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made by Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement; (ii) any event, condition, fact or circumstance that occurs, arises or exists after the date of this Agreement and that would cause or constitute a material inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made by Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement if: (A) such representation or warranty had been made as of the time of the occurrence, existence or discovery of such event, condition, fact or circumstance; or (B) such event, condition, fact or

38

circumstance had occurred, arisen or existed on or prior to the date of this Agreement; (iii) any material breach of any covenant or obligation of Parent or Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement; and (iv) any event, condition, fact or circumstance that would make the timely satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Section 7 impossible or unlikely or that has had or would reasonably be expected to have or result in a Parent Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall promptly advise the Company in writing of any Legal Proceeding or material claim overtly threatened, commenced or asserted against or with respect to Parent relating to the Merger or the other Contemplated Transactions. No notification given to the Company pursuant to this Section 4.2(f) shall limit or otherwise affect any of the representations, warranties, covenants or obligations of Parent contained in this Agreement.

4.3   No Solicitation.

(a)   During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, and the Company shall: (x) ensure that its Subsidiaries do not, directly or indirectly; and (y) use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the respective Representatives of the Acquired Corporations do not, directly or indirectly:

(i)    solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage, induce or facilitate the making, submission or announcement of any Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry;

(v)   enter into any letter of intent or similar document or any Contract contemplating or otherwise relating to any Acquisition Transaction;

provided, however, that prior to the Company Stockholders' Meeting, this Section 4.3(a) shall not prohibit the Company from furnishing nonpublic information regarding the Acquired Corporations to, or entering into discussions and negotiations with, any Person in response to an Acquisition Proposal made by such Person (and not withdrawn) that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to result in the submission by such Person to the Company of, a Superior Offer if: (A) neither the Company nor any Representative of any of the Acquired Corporations shall have breached any of the provisions set forth in this Section 4.3; (B) the board of directors of the Company concludes in good faith, after having taken into account the advice of its outside legal counsel, that such action is required in order for the board of directors of the Company to comply with its fiduciary obligations to the Company's stockholders under applicable law; (C) at least two business days prior to furnishing any such nonpublic information to, or entering into discussions or negotiations with, such Person, the Company gives Parent written notice of the identity of such Person and of the Company's intention to furnish nonpublic information to, or enter into discussions or negotiations with, such Person, and the Company receives from such Person an executed confidentiality agreement containing provisions (including nondisclosure provisions, use restrictions, non-solicitation provisions and "standstill" provisions) at least as favorable to the Company as the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement as in effect immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement; and (D) at least two business days prior to furnishing any such nonpublic information to such Person, the Company furnishes such nonpublic information to Parent (to the extent such nonpublic information has not been previously furnished by the

39

Company to Parent). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing (and notwithstanding the reference to "commercially reasonable efforts" in the language immediately preceding clause "(i)" of this Section 4.3(a)), the Company acknowledges and agrees that any breach of any of the provisions set forth in the preceding sentence by any affiliate, director, officer, agent or attorney of any of the Acquired Corporations, whether or not such affiliate, director, officer, agent or attorney is purporting to act on behalf of any of the Acquired Corporations, shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 4.3 by the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, an affiliate, director, officer, agent or attorney of an Acquired Corporation, or any other Person, shall be deemed to have breached a provision of this Section 4.3 if such affiliate, director, officer, agent or attorney or other Person takes any action that would constitute a breach by the Company of such provision were the Company to take such action directly.

(b)   The Company shall promptly (and in no event later than 48 hours after receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry) advise Parent orally and in writing of any Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry (including the identity of the Person making or submitting such Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry, and the terms thereof) that is made or submitted by any Person during the Pre-Closing Period. The Company shall keep Parent informed with respect to: (i) the status of any such Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry; and (ii) the status and terms of any modification or proposed modification thereto.

(c)   The Company shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions with any Person that relate to any Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry.

(d)   The Company agrees not to release or permit the release of any Person from, or to waive or permit the waiver of any provision of, any confidentiality, non-solicitation, no hire, "standstill" or similar Contract to which any of the Acquired Corporations is a party or under which any of the Acquired Corporations has any rights, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each such agreement to be enforced at the request of Parent. The Company also shall promptly request each Person that has executed a confidentiality or similar agreement within the last 12 months in connection with its consideration of a possible Acquisition Transaction or a possible equity investment in any Acquired Corporation to return to the Acquired Corporations all confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person by or on behalf of any of the Acquired Corporations.

5.4   Stock Options and Company ESPP.

(a)   At the Effective Time, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested, shall be converted into and become an option to purchase Parent Common Stock, and Parent shall either: (i) assume such Company Option (including accepting such Company Option by assignment from the Company); or (ii) replace such Company Option by issuing a materially equivalent replacement stock option to purchase Parent Common Stock in substitution therefor, in either case in accordance with the terms (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) of the applicable Company Option Plan and/or the terms of the stock option agreement by which such Company Option is evidenced; provided, however, that to the extent permissible under the terms of the applicable Company Option Plan identified on Schedule 5.4(a), and then in accordance with the terms (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) of such Company Option Plan (including any terms providing for any acceleration of vesting), Parent may determine that any or all of the outstanding Company Options granted under each Company Option Plan identified on Schedule 5.4(a) shall not be so converted and shall not be so assumed or replaced, and in that case shall notify the Company of such determination at least 45 days prior to the date on which the Merger becomes effective. All rights with respect to Company Common Stock under Company Options assumed or replaced by Parent shall thereupon be converted into options to purchase Parent Common Stock, and accordingly, from and after the Effective Time: (A) each Company Option assumed or replaced by Parent may be exercised solely for shares of Parent Common Stock; (B) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each Company Option so assumed or replaced by Parent shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, and rounding the resulting aggregate number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock; (C) the per share exercise price for the Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Company Option so assumed or replaced by Parent shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by the Exchange Ratio, and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent; and (D) subject to the terms of the stock option agreement by which such Company Option is evidenced, any restriction on the exercise of any Company Option so assumed or replaced by Parent shall continue in full force and effect and the term, exercisability, vesting schedule and other provisions of such Company Option shall otherwise remain unchanged as a result of the assumption or replacement of such Company Option; provided, however, that, following the Effective Time, Parent's board of directors or a committee thereof shall succeed to the authority and responsibility of the Company's board of directors or any committee thereof with respect to each Company Option so assumed or replaced by Parent.

(b)   Parent shall: (i) file with the SEC, no later than 15 days after the date on which the Merger becomes effective, a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form), if available for use by Parent, relating to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable with respect to the Company Options assumed or replaced by Parent in accordance with Section 5.4(a); (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such assumed or replaced Company Options remain outstanding; and (iii) deliver to each holder of a Company Option that is so assumed or replaced a written notice setting forth: (A) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock

44

subject to such Company Option; and (B) the exercise price per share payable to Parent upon the exercise of such Company Option.

(c)   At the Effective Time, Parent may (if Parent determines that it desires to do so) assume any or all of the Company Option Plans or merge any such Company Option Plans into any stock option plan of Parent. If Parent elects to so assume or merge any Company Option Plan, then, under such Company Option Plan, Parent shall be entitled to grant stock awards, to the extent permissible under applicable Legal Requirements, using the share reserves of such Company Option Plan as of the Effective Time (including any shares returned to such share reserves as a result of the termination of Company Options that are assumed by Parent pursuant to Section 5.4(a)), except that: (i) stock covered by such awards shall be shares of Parent Common Stock; (ii) all references in such Company Option Plan to a number of shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed amended to refer instead to a number of shares of Parent Common Stock determined by multiplying the number of referenced shares of Company Common Stock by the Exchange Ratio, and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock; and (iii) Parent's board of directors or a committee thereof shall succeed to the authority and responsibility of the Company's board of directors or any committee thereof with respect to the administration of such Company Option Plan.

(d)   Upon Parent's request, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions that may be reasonably necessary for the Company (under the Company Option Plans and otherwise) to effectuate the provisions of this Section 5.4 and to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, holders of Company Options have no rights with respect thereto other than those specifically provided in this Section 5.4.

(e)   Upon Parent's request, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions that may be reasonably necessary to: (i) cause any outstanding offering period under the Company ESPP to be terminated as of the last business day prior to the date on which the Merger becomes effective (the last business day prior to the date on which the Merger becomes effective being referred to as the "Designated Date"); (ii) make any pro-rata adjustments that may be necessary to reflect the shortened offering period, but otherwise treat such shortened offering period as a fully effective and completed offering period for all purposes under the Company ESPP; (iii) cause the exercise as of the Designated Date of each outstanding purchase right under the Company ESPP; and (iv) provide that no further offering period or purchase period shall commence under the Company ESPP after the Designated Date; provided, however, that the actions described in clauses "(i)" through "(iv)" of this sentence shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger. On the Designated Date, the Company shall apply the funds credited as of such date under the Company ESPP within each participant's payroll withholding account to the purchase of whole shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP. Immediately prior to and effective as of the Effective Time (and subject to the consummation of the Merger), the Company shall terminate the Company ESPP. In the event that the commencement of the next regularly scheduled offering period under the Parent ESPP is more than 90 days after the date on which the Merger becomes effective, Parent will establish a special offering period for Continuing Employees under the Parent ESPP, which period shall commence as soon as administratively practicable following the Effective Time and end on the date immediately prior to the date of commencement of the next regularly scheduled offering period under the Parent ESPP.

45

5.5   Employee Benefits.

(a)   Parent agrees that, subject to any necessary transition period and subject to any applicable plan provisions, contractual requirements or Legal Requirements, all employees of the Acquired Corporations who continue employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time ("Continuing Employees") will be eligible to participate in: (i) the Parent ESPP and, as determined by Parent, applicable stock option plans of Parent; (ii) Parent's non-equity employee benefit plans and programs, including any profit sharing plan, severance plan, medical plan, dental plan, life insurance plan, time-off programs and disability plan, in each case to substantially the same extent as similarly situated employees of Parent; (iii) such Company Employee Plans as are continued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries following the Closing Date, or are assumed by Parent (for the purposes of this Section 5.5 only, the plans referred to in clauses "(i)" through "(iii)" of this sentence being referred to as "Specified Parent Benefit Plans"). Each Continuing Employee shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, receive full credit for purposes of eligibility, vesting, level of benefits and benefit accrual under the Specified Parent Benefit Plans in which such Continuing Employee participates (other than under any sabbatical program or with respect to the vesting of any stock options granted by Parent after the Effective Time) for the years of continuous service by such Continuing Employee recognized by the Acquired Corporations prior to the Effective Time. With respect to any welfare benefit plans maintained by Parent for the benefit of Continuing Employees located in the United States, subject to any applicable plan provisions, contractual requirements or Legal Requirements, Parent shall: (A) cause to be waived, as required by applicable Legal Requirements, any eligibility requirements or pre-existing condition limitations; and (B) give effect, in determining any deductible maximum out-of-pocket limitations, to amounts paid by such Continuing Employees with respect to substantially similar plans maintained by any Acquired Corporation during the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs.

(b)   Nothing in this Section 5.5 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be construed to create a right in any Company Employee to employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Subsidiary of Parent. Except for Indemnified Persons (as defined in Section 5.6(a)) to the extent of their respective rights pursuant to Section 5.6, no Company Employee, and no Continuing Employee, shall be deemed to be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement.

(c)   If requested by Parent at least five business days prior to the Closing, the Company shall take (or cause to be taken) all actions pursuant to resolutions of the Company's board of directors necessary or appropriate to terminate, effective no later than the day prior to the date on which the Merger becomes effective, any Company Employee Plan that contains a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code (a "Company 401(k) Plan"). If the Company is required to terminate any Company 401(k) Plan, then the Company shall provide to Parent prior to the Closing Date written evidence of the adoption by the Company's board of directors of resolutions authorizing the termination of such Company 401(k) Plan (the form and substance of which resolutions shall be subject to the prior review and approval of Parent).

(d)   To the extent any employee notification or consultation requirements are imposed by applicable Legal Requirements with respect to any of the Contemplated Transactions, the Company shall cooperate with Parent to ensure that such requirements are complied with prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain compliance with all applicable rules and regulations of The NASDAQ Stock Market in connection with all matters relating to stock options and employee benefit plans.

46

Exhibit C to Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization

AFFILIATE AGREEMENT

THIS AFFILIATE AGREEMENT ("Affiliate Agreement") is being executed and delivered as of                        , 2005 by and between ADOBE SYSTEMS INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation ("Parent"), and                        ("Stockholder").

RECITALS

A.    Stockholder is a stockholder of, and is an officer and/or director of, MACROMEDIA, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company").

B.    Parent, the Company and Avner Acquisition Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated as of April 17, 2005 (the "Merger Agreement"), providing for the merger of Merger Sub into the Company (the "Merger"). The Merger Agreement contemplates that, upon consummation of the Merger: (a) holders of shares of the common stock of the Company will receive shares of common stock of Parent ("Parent Common Stock") in exchange for their shares of common stock of the Company; and (b) the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. It is accordingly contemplated that Stockholder will receive shares of Parent Common Stock in the Merger.

C.    Stockholder understands that the Parent Common Stock being issued in the Merger will be issued pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4, and that Stockholder may be deemed (but does not hereby admit to be) an "affiliate" of the Company as such term is defined for purposes of paragraphs "(c)" and "(d)" of Rule 145 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").

AGREEMENT

        Stockholder, intending to be legally bound, agrees as follows:

1.    Representations and Warranties of Stockholder.    Stockholder represents and warrants to Parent as follows:

(a)   As of the date of this Affiliate Agreement, Stockholder is the holder and "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of the number of outstanding shares of common stock of the Company set forth beneath Stockholder's signature on the signature page hereof (the "Company Shares"), and Stockholder has good and valid title to the Company Shares, free and clear of any liens, pledges, security interests, adverse claims, equities, options, proxies, charges, encumbrances or restrictions of any nature. Stockholder has the sole right to vote and to dispose of the Company Shares.

(b)   As of the date of this Affiliate Agreement, Stockholder is the holder of options to purchase the number of shares of common stock of the Company set forth beneath Stockholder's signature on the signature page hereof (the "Company Options"), and Stockholder has good and valid title to the Company Options, free and clear of any liens, pledges, security interests, adverse claims, equities, options, proxies, charges, encumbrances or restrictions of any nature.

(c)   Stockholder does not own, of record or beneficially, directly or indirectly, any securities of the Company other than the Company Shares and the Company Options.

(d)   Stockholder has carefully read this Affiliate Agreement and, to the extent Stockholder felt necessary, has discussed with counsel the limitations imposed on Stockholder's ability to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the shares of Parent Common Stock that Stockholder is to receive

C-1

in the Merger (the "Parent Shares"). Stockholder fully understands the limitations this Affiliate Agreement places upon Stockholder's ability to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of securities of Parent.

2.    Prohibitions Against Transfer.    Stockholder agrees that Stockholder shall not effect any sale, transfer or other disposition of any Parent Shares unless: (a) such sale, transfer or other disposition is effected pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (b) such sale, transfer or other disposition is made in conformity with the requirements of Rule 145 under the Securities Act, as evidenced by a broker's letter and a representation letter executed by Stockholder (reasonably satisfactory in form and content to Parent) stating that such requirements have been met; (c) counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent shall have advised Parent in a written opinion letter (reasonably satisfactory in form and content to Parent), upon which Parent may rely, that such sale, transfer or other disposition will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; or (d) an authorized representative of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") shall have rendered written advice to Stockholder to the effect that the SEC would take no action, or that the staff of the SEC would not recommend that the SEC take action, with respect to such sale, transfer or other disposition, and a copy of such written advice and all other related communications with the SEC shall have been delivered to Parent.

3.    Stop Transfer Instructions; Legend.    Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that: (a) stop transfer instructions will be given to Parent's transfer agent with respect to the Parent Shares; and (b) each certificate representing any of such shares shall bear a legend identical or similar in effect to the following legend (together with any other legend or legends required by applicable state securities laws or otherwise):

"THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION TO WHICH RULE 145(d) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 APPLIES AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH RULE AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AFFILIATE AGREEMENT DATED AS OF APRIL    , 2005, BETWEEN THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF AND THE ISSUER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICES OF THE ISSUER."

At such time, if ever, as any of the transfer restrictions referred to in the legend on the certificate(s) evidencing the Parent Shares shall become inapplicable, upon request and surrender by Stockholder of its legended certificate evidencing the Parent Shares, Parent shall issue and shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Stockholder, a certificate for his or her Parent Shares that does not bear such legend.

4.    Covenant of Parent.    From and after the effective time of the Merger and for so long as is required to permit Stockholder to sell the Parent Shares pursuant to Rule 145 under the 1933 Act, Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts to file on a timely basis all reports required to be filed by it pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, other than Form 8-K reports.

5.    Specific Performance.    Stockholder agrees that in the event of any breach or threatened breach by Stockholder of any covenant, obligation or other provision contained in this Affiliate Agreement, Parent shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to Parent) to: (a) a decree or order of specific performance or mandamus to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant, obligation or other provision; and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach. Stockholder further agrees that neither Parent nor any other person or entity shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 5, and Stockholder irrevocably waives

C-2

any right he may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

6.    Attorneys' Fees.    If any legal proceeding relating to this Affiliate Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Affiliate Agreement is brought against Stockholder, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and disbursements (in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled).

7.    Non-Exclusivity.    The rights and remedies of Parent hereunder are not exclusive of or limited by any other rights or remedies which Parent may have, whether at law, in equity, by contract or otherwise, all of which shall be cumulative (and not alternative).

8.    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.    This Affiliate Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof. In any action between any of the parties arising out of or relating to this Affiliate Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Affiliate Agreement, each of the parties: (a) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware; (b) irrevocably waives the right to trial by jury; and (c)  irrevocably consents to service of process by first class certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepared, to the address at which Stockholder or Parent, as the case may be, is to receive notice in accordance with Section 9.

9.    Notices.    Any notice or other communication under this Affiliate Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made as follows: (a) if sent by registered or certified mail in the United States return receipt requested, upon receipt; (b) if sent designated for overnight delivery by nationally recognized overnight air courier (such as DHL or Federal Express), two business days after mailing; (c) if sent by facsimile transmission before 5:00 p.m., when transmitted and receipt is confirmed; (d) if sent by facsimile transmission after 5:00 p.m. and receipt is confirmed, on the following business day; and (e) if otherwise actually personally delivered, when delivered, provided that such notice or other communication is delivered to the address set forth below, or to such other address as Parent or Stockholder shall provide by like notice to the other:

if to Stockholder: at the address set forth beneath Stockholder's name on the signature page to this Affiliate Agreement.

10.    Severability.    Any term or provision of this Affiliate Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of

C-3

competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, Stockholder agrees that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Affiliate Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, Stockholder agrees to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.

11.    Extension; Waiver; Termination.    Subject to the final two sentences of this Section 11, any party may: (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party; (b) waive any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the other party in this Affiliate Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Affiliate Agreement; and (c) waive compliance with any covenant, obligation or condition for the benefit of the other party contained in this Affiliate Agreement.. No failure on the part of any party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Affiliate Agreement, and no delay on the part of any party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Affiliate Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. A party shall not be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Affiliate Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Affiliate Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given. If the Merger Agreement is terminated, this Affiliate Agreement shall thereupon terminate.

12.    Captions.    The captions contained in this Affiliate Agreement are for convenience of reference only, shall not be deemed to be a part of this Affiliate Agreement and shall not be referred to in connection with the construction or interpretation of this Affiliate Agreement.

13.    Further Assurances.    Stockholder shall execute and/or cause to be delivered to Parent such instruments and other documents and shall take such other actions as Parent may reasonably request to effectuate the intent and purposes of this Affiliate Agreement.

14.    Entire Agreement.    This Affiliate Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of Parent and Stockholder relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between Parent and Stockholder relating to the subject matter hereof (it being understood that nothing contained in this Affiliate Agreement shall have any effect on Stockholder's obligations under any Voting Agreement entered into between Parent and Stockholder prior to the date of this Affiliate Agreement in connection with the Merger).

15.    Counterparts; Exchanges by Facsimile.    This Affiliate Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of a fully executed Affiliate Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by facsimile shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of this Affiliate Agreement.

16.    Amendments.    This Affiliate Agreement may not be amended, modified, altered or supplemented other than by means of a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of Parent and Stockholder.

17.    Assignment.    This Affiliate Agreement and all obligations of Stockholder hereunder are personal to Stockholder and may not be transferred or delegated by Stockholder at any time. Parent

C-4

may freely assign any or all of its rights under this Affiliate Agreement, in whole or in part, to any other person or entity without obtaining the consent or approval of Stockholder. Subject to the foregoing, this Affiliate Agreement will inure to the benefit of Parent and its successors and assigns and will be binding upon Stockholder and Stockholder's representatives, executors, administrators, estate, heirs, successors and assigns.

18.    Independence of Obligations; Other Agreements.    The covenants and obligations of Stockholder set forth in this Affiliate Agreement shall be construed as independent of any other agreement or arrangement between Stockholder, on the one hand, and the Company or Parent, on the other. The existence of any claim or cause of action by Stockholder against the Company or Parent shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of any of such covenants or obligations against Stockholder. Nothing in this Affiliate Agreement shall limit any of the rights or remedies of Parent under the Merger Agreement, or any of the rights or remedies of Parent or any of the obligations of Stockholder under any agreement between Stockholder and Parent or any certificate or instrument executed by Stockholder in favor of Parent; and nothing in the Merger Agreement or in any other such agreement, certificate or instrument, shall limit any of the rights or remedies of Parent or any of the obligations of Stockholder under this Affiliate Agreement.

19.    Survival.    Each of the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations contained in this Affiliate Agreement shall survive the consummation of the Merger.
