ARTICLE 2
THE MERGER; CONVERSION OF SHARES

2.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to conditions of this Agreement at the closing of the transactions contemplated herein (the “Closing”) and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Acquisition Subsidiary shall be merged (the “Merger”) with and into BPN and the separate corporate existence of Acquisition Subsidiary shall thereafter cease. After the Merger, BPN shall continue as the surviving entity (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Entity”). The Merger shall have the effect as provided in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the consummation of the Merger, all the rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of BPN and Buyer shall vest in the Surviving Entity and all obligations, duties, debts and liabilities of BPN and Buyer shall be the obligations, duties, debts and liabilities of the Surviving Entity.

2.2 Effective Time. On the Closing Date, Buyer and BPN will cause an appropriate Certificate of Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Secretary of State”) in such form and executed as provided in the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective on the date and at the time when the Certificate of Merger has been duly filed with the Secretary of State or, subject to the DGCL, such time as is agreed upon by the parties and specified in the Certificate of Merger; such time is hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time.”

2.3 Organizational Documents; Directors and Officers.

(a) Pursuant to the Merger, the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of Acquisition Subsidiary, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended as provided by Law.

(b) The officers and directors of Buyer shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the members of the Surviving Entity until their successors shall have been duly elected or appointed or qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Entity.

2.4 Conversion of Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof:

(a) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each issued and outstanding share of the common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Acquisition Subsidiary (“Acquisition Subsidiary Common Stock”) shall be converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Surviving Entity (“Surviving Entity Common Stock”). Each certificate representing outstanding shares of Acquisition Subsidiary Common

Stock shall at the Effective Time represent an equal number of shares of Surviving Entity Common Stock.

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock. All shares of BPN Common Stock that are owned by BPN as treasury stock shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist and no stock of Buyer or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(i) each issued and outstanding share of BPN Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be converted into the right to receive the number of shares of Openwave Common Stock equal to the Conversion Number; and

(ii) each issued and outstanding share of BPN Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive the number of shares of Openwave Common Stock equal to the Conversion Number; provided, however, that in the event that Openwave determines in its reasonable judgment that any such issuance would result in there not being a valid exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act for such issuance (a “Non-exemption”) then, in lieu of receiving Openwave Common Stock each such share of BPN Common Stock held by each shareholder of BPN whose status would otherwise cause such Non-exemption shall be converted into the right to receive $2.16; provided further however that such aggregate cash amount shall not exceed $2,000,000.

The shares of Openwave Common Stock issued pursuant to this Section 2.4(c) shall be referred to herein as “Openwave Shares.”

(d) Dissenting Shares.

(i) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each outstanding share of BPN Common Stock the holder of which has not voted in favor of the Merger has perfected such holder’s right to an appraisal of such holder’s shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL, and has not effectively withdrawn or lost such right to appraisal (a “Dissenting Share”), shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the consideration pursuant to Section 2.4(c), but the holder thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the applicable provisions of the DGCL; provided, however, that any Dissenting Shares held by a person at the Effective Time who shall, after the Effective Time, withdraw the demand for appraisal or lose the right of appraisal, in either case pursuant to the DGCL, shall be deemed to be converted into, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the consideration pursuant to Section 2.4(c).

(ii) BPN shall give Buyer (x) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal, withdrawals of demands for appraisal and any other instruments served pursuant to the applicable provisions of the DGCL relating to the appraisal process received by BPN and (y) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL. BPN will not voluntarily make any

payment with respect to any demands for appraisal and will not, except with the prior written consent of Buyer, settle or offer to settle any such demands.

2.5 Employee Stock Options and Warrants.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of the BridgePort Networks, Inc. 2003 Stock Plan (the “BPN Option Plan”) and the stock option agreements executed pursuant thereto, the BPN Option Plan and each option to purchase BPN Common Stock granted thereunder that is outstanding at the Effective Time shall be assumed by Buyer and continued in accordance with their respective terms and each such option shall become a right to purchase a number of shares of Openwave Common Stock, as more fully described below. Prior to the Effective Time, the board of directors of BPN shall take all action necessary so that each BPN Stock Option (as defined below) shall be vested in full immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase shares of BPN Common Stock (a “BPN Stock Option”) under the BPN Option Plan, whether vested or unvested, shall be deemed to constitute an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such BPN Stock Option (subject to the acceleration of vesting in accordance with the terms of the BPN Stock Options), a number of shares of Openwave Common Stock equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole share) of (i) the number of shares of BPN Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the option immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Conversion Number; and the option exercise price per share of Openwave Common Stock at which such option is exercisable shall be the amount (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (iii) the option exercise price per share of BPN Common Stock at which such option is exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by (iv) the Conversion Number.

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable warrant agreement, each warrant to purchase BPN Common Stock that is outstanding at the Effective Time shall be assumed by Buyer and continued in accordance with their respective terms and each such warrant shall become a right to purchase a number of shares of Openwave Common Stock, as more fully described below.

(d) At the Effective Time, each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of BPN Common Stock (a “BPN Warrant”) shall be deemed to constitute a warrant to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such BPN Warrant, a number of shares of Openwave Common Stock equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole share) of (i) the number of shares of BPN Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Conversion Number; and the warrant exercise price per share of Openwave Common Stock at which such warrant is exercisable shall be the amount (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (iii) the warrant exercise price per share of BPN Common Stock at which such warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by (iv) the Conversion Number.

2.6 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) At the Effective Time, Openwave shall deliver to each Seller a certificate or certificates representing the Openwave Shares that such Seller is to receive under Section 2.4(c) in exchange for such Seller’s certificate of BPN Common Stock.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Openwave shall mail to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of BPN Common Stock (the “Certificates”) whose shares are converted into cash pursuant to the proviso Section 2.4(c)(ii) into the right to receive the cash consideration (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to Buyer and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Buyer may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the cash consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to Buyer, together with such letter of transmittal duly executed and completed in accordance with its terms, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a check representing the cash consideration per share of BPN Common Stock represented thereby, which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article 2, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In no event shall the holder of any Certificate be entitled to receive interest on any funds to be received in the Merger. In the event of a transfer of ownership of BPN Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of BPN, the cash consideration may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate representing such BPN Common Stock is presented to Buyer accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.6(b), each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the cash consideration per share of BPN Common Stock represented thereby as contemplated by this Article 2.

(c) The consideration paid and the Openwave Shares delivered upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of capital stock of BPN represented thereby. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of BPN shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Entity of the shares of capital stock of BPN which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Entity for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Section.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Openwave Shares will be issued in exchange for Certificates, no dividend or other distributions with respect to Openwave Shares will be payable on or with respect to any fractional share and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to any rights of a shareholder of Buyer. In lieu of such fractional share interests, Buyer shall deliver to the Representative on behalf of each holder of Shares who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share of Openwave Shares an amount in cash equal to the fractional share interest of Openwave Shares to which such holder (after taking into

account all Shares held immediately prior to the Effective Time by such holder) would otherwise be entitled, multiplied by the per share value of Openwave Shares.

2.7 Withholding Rights. Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Seller such amounts as Buyer is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Buyer, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Seller in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Buyer.

2.8 The Closing. The transactions described in Section 2.2 shall be deemed to occur simultaneously and unless all of the transactions described in Section 2.2 are in fact effected at the Closing, none of such transactions shall become effective and the Closing shall not have taken place. The Closing shall take place (i) on the date (the “Closing Date”) that is the third Business Day to occur after the date on which the last of the conditions set forth in Article 9 (other than conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied on the Closing Date) shall have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (ii) on such other date as the parties may agree in writing.

From the date hereof until the Effective Time, Buyer agrees that it shall not, without the written consent of the Sellers, knowingly take any action that is intended or is reasonably likely to result in (A) any of its representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement being or becoming untrue in any respect at any time at or prior to the Closing, (B) any of the conditions to the Merger set forth in Article 9 not being satisfied, (C) a breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement, or (D) the disclosure regarding BPN and Buyer’s plans regarding Openwave and BPN in the Tender Offer being changed in a way which materially and adversely affects the Sellers, except for such changes approved by a representative of the Sellers.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Buyer shall cause Acquisition Subsidiary to become a party to this Agreement and to consummate the Merger hereunder.

7.4 Break-Up Fee. If Buyer or any of its Affiliates enters into an agreement with respect to an acquisition of Openwave or a majority of its outstanding common stock or substantially all of its assets and such agreement provides for a payment at any time to Buyer or any of its Affiliates in the event the transaction contemplated thereby is terminated or otherwise not consummated (the “Payment”), Buyer agrees to pay to BPN a fee of the lesser of $10,000,000 or thirty-three (33%) of such Payment if and when such Payment is made to Buyer or its Affiliates less the Termination Fee if actually paid. The Sellers are intended third party beneficiaries of such arrangements and the Payment, and Buyer agrees not to alter the terms of the arrangements or waive the right to receive the Payment without the consent of the Sellers.

The Sellers’ right to designate directors on Openwave’s board cannot be transferred or assigned to any third party by the Sellers.

7.6 Preparation of Registration Statements; Information Supplied.

(a) In the event that, in the reasonable judgment of Openwave, the issuance of Openwave Shares pursuant to Section 2.4 would require registration under the Securities Act,

then as promptly as reasonably practicable following the consummation of the Tender Offer and the assumption of this Agreement by Openwave, Openwave shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on an appropriate form with respect to the issuance of Openwave Shares in the Merger (such form, and any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Registration Statement”).

(b) Openwave shall use reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby. Openwave will advise BPN, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective, the issuance of any stop order, the suspension of the qualification of the Openwave Shares issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or any request by the SEC for amendment of the Registration Statement.

(c) BPN and the Sellers each agree, as to itself and its subsidiaries, that none of the information, supplied or to be supplied by it or its subsidiaries and solely to the extent that such information pertains to it, its subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors, officers or shareholders, for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Registration Statement will, at the time the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Openwave agrees that none of the information supplied or to be supplied in writing by or on behalf of Openwave for inclusion, nor the information incorporated by reference from documents filed by Openwave with the SEC, or in the case of the Registration Statement or any other documents to be filed by Openwave with the SEC or any other Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby will on the date of its filing contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. All such documents filed by Openwave with the SEC under the Exchange Act and the Securities Act will comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the Securities Act. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to BPN or the Sellers, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Registration Statement so that it would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify Openwave and, to the extent required by Law, rules or regulations, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC.

(d) As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, Openwave shall use its reasonable best efforts to file with the SEC and maintain its effectiveness a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to the shares of Openwave Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Openwave stock options issued in substitution of the BPN Stock Options in accordance with Section 2.5.

7.7 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification. The indemnification provisions of each of the BPN Certificate and the BPN Bylaws as in effect on the date hereof shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years from the Closing Date in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who at the Closing were directors, officers or employees of BPN; provided, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such action or resolution of such claim. Openwave shall honor such indemnification provisions. Prior to the Effective Time, BPN may, in its discretion, obtain a directors and officers “tail” insurance policy with an aggregate premium not in excess of $180,000 (the “D&O Policy”). If so obtained, Buyer and BPN shall maintain such D&O policy in full force and effect and continue to honor their respective obligations thereunder for a period of six (6) years following the Closing. From and after the Effective Time, Buyer and BPN shall pay all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by an indemnified person in enforcing the indemnity set forth in this Section 7.7.

8.3 Non-Solicitation. During the period beginning on the date hereof and continuing for a period of 180 days, none of Buyer, Harbinger or any of their Affiliates (including Openwave if the Tender Offer shall have been consummated or Harbinger or the Buyer have obtained majority control of Openwave’s Board of Directors) will directly or indirectly hire or seek to hire any employees of BPN or its subsidiaries; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to (i) employees that have not been employed by BPN or its subsidiaries for at least six months or (ii) employees (other than officers and other executives or managerial employees) who independently seek employment with Buyer or any of its Affiliates without any direct or indirect solicitation by Buyer of its Affiliates or who respond to general solicitations of employment not specifically directed toward employees of BPN or its subsidiaries.

(a) The Sellers shall not, and the Sellers shall cause BPN and its directors, officers, employees, consultants and agents not to, issue any press release or make any public statement with respect to this Agreement, the negotiations with respect thereto, the execution hereof, the terms hereof, or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of Buyer, except (i) for necessary and prudent communications with employees of BPN and (ii) as may be required by applicable Law, any rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority, or any listing agreement with any national securities exchange (provided, however, that Sellers shall provide Buyer a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any such public statements pursuant to this clause (ii)).

(b) Harbinger shall not, and Harbinger shall cause Buyer and its directors, officers, employees, consultants and agents not to, issue any press release or make any public statement with respect to this Agreement, the negotiations with respect thereto, the execution hereof, the terms hereof, or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the Sellers, except as may be required by applicable Law, any rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority, or any listing agreement with any national securities exchange (provided, however, that Buyer shall provide the Sellers a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any such public statements).

8.5 Advice of Changes.

If any fact or condition would require any change in the Disclosure Schedule if such Disclosure Schedule were dated the date of the occurrence of discovery of any such fact or condition, the Sellers shall, or shall cause BPN to, deliver to Buyer a supplement to the Disclosure Schedule specifying such change. The information set forth in any such supplement shall have no effect for purposes of determining whether any conditions to Closing shall have been satisfied, or in determining whether or not any of the representations, warranties or covenants have been breached or any amount for indemnification pursuant to Article 11.

8.6 Tax Treatment of Merger. Buyer and BPN shall not take any action (other than any action contemplated by the Tender Offer or this Agreement), and shall use their reasonable best efforts not to cause nor permit Openwave to take any action (other than any action

contemplated by the Tender Offer or this Agreement), that could reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger from qualifying as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Unless otherwise required pursuant to applicable law, Buyer and BPN shall, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause Openwave to, treat the Merger as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and shall not take any position inconsistent with such treatment for any tax purposes.

ARTICLE 11
SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION

11.1 Survival. The representations and warranties of the Sellers contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or other writing required to be delivered by them pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing. The covenants and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or other writing required to be delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing only to the extent contemplated by the terms thereof.

11.2 Indemnification.

(a) Subject to the limitations and procedures described herein (including, without limitation, in Sections 10.2 and 11.2(c)-(i)), the Sellers shall severally indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling Persons, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (each, a “Buyer Indemnitee” and, collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) against and from any and all Damages incurred or suffered by the Buyer Indemnitees as a result of (a) breaches of representations and warranties (including the loss in value of Openwave Common Stock owned by Buyer or any of its Affiliates arising as a result of the Buyer or its Affiliates being an “Acquiring Person” (as defined in the Rights Agreement, dated August 8, 2000, between ▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ (Openwave’s predecessor-in-interest) and U.S. Stock Transfer Corporation) due to a breach of Section 3.5) set forth in Article 3 or Article 4 and (b) breaches of covenants of BPN which occur prior to the Effective Time or Sellers in this Agreement.

(b) Subject to the limitations and procedures described herein, Buyer and Harbinger shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers, BPN and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, stockholders and controlling Persons, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (each, a “BPN Indemnitee” and, collectively, the “BPN Indemnitees”) against and from any and all Damages incurred or suffered by the Buyer Indemnitees as a result of (a) breaches of representations and warranties in Section 5, (b) breaches of covenants of the Buyer and Harbinger in this Agreement and (c) any Damages arising out of, relating to or in connection with the Tender Offer and the other transactions described in the Tender Offer materials (the “Proposed Transactions”) (including, but not limited to the negotiation, preparation, execution or performance of this Agreement and the negotiation, preparation, execution or performance of any agreement relating to the Proposed Transactions) and any disputes or proceedings relating thereto, and for any actions or omissions taken at the request of Harbinger or Buyer; provided, that Buyer and Harbinger shall not, however, be responsible for any Damages pursuant to clause (c) which are determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction resulted from gross negligence, bad

faith or willful misconduct on the part of any BPN Indemnitee. In addition, Buyer and Harbinger shall advance funds for any expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) of any BPN Indemnitee under this Section 11.2(c) (including in connection with enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided for in Section 11.2(c)) as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, provided that the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances to the extent, if any, it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such BPN Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent that any BPN Indemnitee is a witness in any claim, action, suit, proceeding, investigation or inquiry to which such BPN Indemnitee is not a party, such BPN Indemnitee shall be indemnified and held harmless against, and advanced, all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

The obligations under this Section 11.2 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any BPN Indemnitee to whom this Section 11.2 applies without the consent of such affected BPN Indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that the indemnities to whom this Section 11.2 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 11.2 and shall be entitled to enforce the covenants contained herein).

In the event that any Indemnifying Party hereunder or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of such Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, assume the obligations set forth in this Section 11.2.

(i) Shareholders shall have no obligation to provide any indemnification until the aggregate dollar amount of all Damages that would otherwise be indemnifiable pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(a) exceeds Four Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($450,000.00) (the “Threshold Amount”), and then only to the extent of the amount of Damages in excess of the Threshold Amount.

(ii) The Sellers shall not be obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(a) for any amount of indemnifiable Damages in excess of 361,446 of the Openwave Shares received by each Seller upon consummation of the Merger whether directly or upon conversion of former BPN Stock Options that represent options to acquire Openwave Stock (the “Indemnity Shares”), and the Indemnity Shares shall be the sole and exclusive source for any indemnifiable Damages.

(iii) In no event shall any Seller be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees for any Damages pursuant to this Article 11 in excess of such Seller’s portion of such Damages set forth on Schedule 11.2. In no event shall any Seller be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees for any Damages attributable to a breach of this Agreement by any other Seller.

(d) No indemnification shall be payable to an Indemnified Party with respect to claims asserted by an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(a) or Section 11.2(b)(a) after the 9-month anniversary of the Closing Date. Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 11.2 shall be further limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Indemnified Party from any third party with respect thereto. An Indemnifying Party shall use reasonable efforts to exhaust all of its remedies against applicable insurers, indemnitors or contributors prior to seeking indemnification hereunder. The amount of Damages otherwise recoverable under this Section 11.2 shall be adjusted to the extent to which any federal, state, local or foreign tax liabilities or benefits are realized by Indemnified Party by reason of any Damage or indemnity payment hereunder.

(e) The Indemnity Shares shall be valued at $8.30 per share for purposes of their surrender to satisfy indemnification claims of the Buyer Indemnitees for Damages. The parties agree to waive the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 6.12 for purposes of allowing the Sellers to so satisfy such indemnification claims.

(f) No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to any indemnification hereunder with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant to the extent such Indemnified Party could have, with reasonable efforts, mitigated or prevented the Damages with respect to such breach. No Buyer Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder for any Damages arising from a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant set forth herein (and the amount of any Damages incurred in respect of such breach shall not be included in the calculation of any limitations on indemnification set forth herein) to the extent that such liability is disclosed as a liability on the Base Balance Sheet.

(g) No party hereto shall have any liability under any provision of this Agreement for any consequential, exemplary or punitive damages or any multiple of damages or diminution in value. Each Indemnified Party shall take all reasonable steps to mitigate Damages for which indemnification may be claimed by them pursuant to this Agreement upon and after becoming aware of any event that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any such Damages.

(h) Any liability for indemnification under this Section 11.2 shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(i) Following the Effective Time, other than in the case of fraud, the exclusive remedy for any breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant of or any other provision of this Agreement contained herein or for Damages arising under Section 11.2 herein, shall be indemnification pursuant to this Article 11.

11.3 Procedures; Remedies. (a) In order for an Indemnified Party to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under Section 11.2 in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim made by any Person against an Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party must notify the Representative in writing of the Third Party Claim promptly following receipt by such Indemnified Party of written notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, however,

that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, such Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Representative, upon such Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by such Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim that are not separately addressed to the Representative.

(b) Defense of Claims.

(i) If the Indemnifying Party notify the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party with respect to a Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 11.3(b), then the Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be vigorously and diligently prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party (but only with the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld in the case of any settlement that provides only for the payment of monetary damages as to which the Indemnified Party will be indemnified in full). The Indemnifying Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including (except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence) any settlement thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnified Party, at any time prior to the Indemnifying Party assumption of the defense, file any motion, answer or other pleadings or take any other action that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be necessary or appropriate to protect their respective interests; and provided, further, that if requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and their counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party reasonably elect to contest, or, if appropriate and related to the Third Party Claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the Third Party Claim, or any cross-complaint against any Person (other than the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates). The Indemnified Party may retain separate counsel to represent them in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this clause (i), and the Indemnified Party will bear their own costs and expenses with respect to such separate counsel except as provided in the preceding sentence and except that the Indemnifying Party will pay the costs and expenses of such separate counsel if in the Indemnified Party’s good faith judgment, it is advisable, based on advice of counsel, for the Indemnified Party to be represented by separate counsel because a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, which makes representation of all parties inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may retain or take over the control of the defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim the defense of which the Indemnifying Party have elected to control if the Indemnified Party irrevocably waive their right to indemnity under this Section 11.3 with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(ii) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of receipt by Indemnifying Party’s Representative of written notice by Indemnified Party of a Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 11.3(b), or if the Indemnifying Party gives such notice but fail to prosecute vigorously and diligently or settle the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be vigorously and diligently prosecuted by the Indemnified Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party (with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnified Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including (except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence) any settlement thereof; provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnified Party and their counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnified Party is contesting, or, if appropriate and related to the Third Party Claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the Third Party Claim, or any cross-complaint against any Person (other than the Indemnifying Party or any of their Affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (ii), if the Indemnifying Party has notified the Buyer that the Indemnifying Party disputes their liability hereunder to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the Indemnifying Party in the manner provided in clause (iii) below, the Indemnifying Party will not be required to bear the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s defense pursuant to this clause (ii) or of the Indemnifying Party’s participation therein at the Indemnified Party’s request, and the Indemnified Party will reimburse the Indemnifying Party in full for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in connection with such litigation. The Indemnifying Party may retain separate counsel to represent them in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this clause (ii), and the Indemnifying Party will bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(iii) If the Representative notifies the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party does not dispute their liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim under Section 11.3 or fail to notify the Indemnified Party whether the Indemnifying Party disputes their liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days of receipt from the Indemnified Party of notice of such Third Party Claim, the Damages arising from such Third Party Claim will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 11.3 and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified Party on demand following the final determination thereof. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed their liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute, and if not resolved through negotiations within thirty (30) days, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation in a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) Other Claims. In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim with respect to which such Indemnified Party desires to seek indemnity pursuant to Section 11.2 that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim with reasonable promptness to the Representative. The failure by any indemnified party so to notify the Representative shall not affect any recovery to which such Indemnified Party may be entitled pursuant to Section 11.2, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been prejudiced by such failure.

(d) In the event of any claim for indemnity under this Section 11.3, Buyer agrees to give the Representative reasonable access to copies of the relevant portions of the Books and Records of BPN and employees of BPN in connection with the matters for which indemnification is sought in each case to the extent Buyer reasonably deems necessary in connection with the Indemnifying Party’s rights and obligations under this Article 11.

Otherwise, any such notice, request or communication shall be deemed not to have been received until the next succeeding Business Day in the place of receipt.

12.3 Representative. Each Seller hereby irrevocably appoints ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Representative”) as his agent and true and lawful attorney-in-fact to act in the name of and for and on behalf of each Seller in connection with all matters arising out of, resulting from, contemplated by or related or incident to this Agreement from and after the date hereof, including any amendments or waivers hereunder. Buyer shall have the absolute right and authority to rely upon the acts taken or omitted to be taken by the Representative on behalf of the Sellers, and Buyer shall have no duty to inquire as to the acts and omissions of the

Representative. The Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Representative while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. The Sellers shall severally indemnify the Representative and hold him harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the duties hereunder. The Representative shall have reasonable access to information about BPN and the reasonable assistance of BPN’s officers and employees for purposes of performing its duties and exercising its rights hereunder; provided that the Representative shall treat confidentially and not disclose any nonpublic information from or about BPN to anyone (except on a need to know basis to individuals who agree to treat such information confidentially).

12.4 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived prior to the Closing Date if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective.

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Except as otherwise provided herein, the rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law.

12.5 Costs and Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense. Buyer and BPN (on behalf of BPN and the Sellers) agree that each will pay its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions described herein, whether or not such transactions are consummated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer will reimburse the Sellers and/or BPN for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with publicizing or promoting the Offer or the transactions contemplated hereby at the instruction or request of Buyer.

12.6 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns; provided that no party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other party hereto except that Buyer, after consummation of the Tender Offer, may transfer and assign, to Openwave all of its rights or obligations hereunder, and such transfer or assignment shall relieve Buyer, Harbinger Master Fund and Harbinger Special Situations Fund of all of their obligations hereunder, except as provided for in Sections 6.12, 10.3(c) and 11.2(b). Openwave shall have provided representations to the Sellers substantially similar to those in Sections 5.1 through Sections 5.4, as well as representations that the Openwave Shares to be issued pursuant to Section 2.4(c), the Openwave stock options and warrants to be issued pursuant to Section 2.5 and the shares of Openwave Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of such options and

warrants have been duly and validly authorized and upon issuance will be fully paid and non-assessable, which representations shall survive the Closing pursuant to Section 11.1.

12.7 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Law of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of Law rules of such state except for Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law. Each of the parties hereto agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement may be brought in the Courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in the Borough of Manhattan and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto irrevocably submits itself in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts in any legal action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement brought in the courts referred to in the preceding sentence. Each party hereby consents to process being served in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of a copy thereof to the address set forth in Section 12.2 hereof and agrees that such service upon receipt shall constitute good and sufficient service of process or notice thereof. Nothing in this Section 12.7 shall affect or eliminate any right to serve process in any other matter permitted by Law.

12.8 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

12.9 Counterparts; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Executed counterparts of this Agreement may be delivered by facsimile transmission. Except for Sections 7.4, 7.7, 11.2 and 12.3, no provision of this Agreement is intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto, and their respective heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder.

12.10 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections or Schedules, such reference shall be to a Section of or Schedule to this Agreement or the applicable Disclosure Schedule unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The phrases “the date of this Agreement,” “the date hereof” and terms of similar import, unless the context otherwise requires, shall be deemed to refer to the date set forth in the preamble of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to require any of the parties or any of their respective subsidiaries, Affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors to take any action that would violate any applicable Law.

12.11 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

12.12 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Escrow Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. No representation, inducement, promise, understanding, condition or warranty not set forth herein has been made or relied upon by any party hereto.

12.13 Specific Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its specified terms or was otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity.
