2 ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OF DISPOSITION OF ASSETS On June 30, 2000, 8x8, Inc., a Delaware corporation doing business as Netergy Networks, Inc. ("Netergy") completed its acquisition of UForce Inc., a Canadian corporation ("U|Force") pursuant to the terms of a Share Exchange Agreement ("Exchange Agreement") by and among Netergy, U|Force, all of the shareholders of U|Force and all indirect owners of shares of U|Force. In connection with the acquisition Netergy issued or will issue up to a total of 4,579,201 shares of common stock as follows: (1) 1,447,523 shares were issued at closing of the acquisition to U|Force shareholders that elected to receive Netergy common stock at closing in exchange for their U|Force shares or rights to acquire U|Force shares; (2) 2,107,780 shares will be issued upon the exchange or redemption of the exchangeable shares (the "Exchangeable Shares") of Canadian entities held by former shareholders or indirect owners of U|Force stock; and (3) 1,023,898 shares will be issued upon exercise of options formerly for the purchase of U|Force stock that Netergy assumed. In addition, Netergy created a Special Voting Share that provides holders of Exchangeable Shares with voting rights that are equivalent to the shares of common stock into which their shares convert. Based on the closing price of Netergy common stock for a period surrounding the date of the Exchange Agreement and the value of U|Force employee stock options assumed, the transaction is valued at approximately $44.6 million. The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase transaction and will result in a charge for purchased in-process R&D expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2001. All shares issued or to be issued pursuant to the acquisition, other than the shares to be issued upon exercise of the assumed options, were or will be issued in reliance on exemptions from the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and as such will be subject to restrictions on transfer. In addition, the acquisition documents provide additional contractual restrictions on resales on a portion of the Netergy shares issued or to be issued. Netergy is obligated to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 to register the shares issuable upon exercise of assumed options and is obligated to issue a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register the other shares issued or issuable in the transaction. Under the terms of the Exchange Agreement, a total of 209,078 Exchangeable Shares will be held in escrow for a period of one year and during that time may be used to satisfy certain indemnification obligations of the former U|Force shareholders. The terms of the Exchange Agreement and the other agreements, instruments and documents contemplated by the Exchange Agreement were the result of arm's-length negotiations among the parties. The summary of the provisions of the Exchange Agreement and the acquisition set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Exchange Agreement which is incorporated herein by reference to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Netergy on May 23, 2000 and the other transaction documents filed as exhibits to this report. -2-

1 EXHIBIT 3.1 CERTIFICATE OF THE POWERS, DESIGNATIONS, PREFERENCES AND RIGHTS OF SPECIAL VOTING STOCK OF 8X8, INC. PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 151(g) AND 155 OF THE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE I, Paul Voois, the President of 8x8, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"), in accordance with the provisions of Section 103 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), DO HEREBY CERTIFY that, pursuant to the provisions of Section 151(g) and Section 155 of the DGCL, the following resolutions were duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company and pursuant to authority conferred upon the Board of Directors by the provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the "CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION"), the Board of Directors of the Company, on May 16, 2000, adopted resolutions providing for the issuance of a series of Preferred Stock of the Company and fixing the relative powers, designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of such stock. These resolutions are as follows: "RESOLVED, that pursuant to authority expressly granted to and vested in the Board of Directors of the Company by the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, the issuance of a series of Preferred Stock of the Company to be designated "SPECIAL VOTING STOCK", par value $0.001 per share, which shall consist of one of the 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock which the Company now has authority to issue, be, and the same hereby is, authorized, and the Board hereby fixes the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, of the sole share of such series (in addition to the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation which may be applicable to the Preferred Stock of this series) as follows: 1. AUTHORIZED NUMBER AND DESIGNATION. One share of the Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value, of the Company is hereby constituted as a series of the Preferred Stock designated as Special Voting Stock, $0.001 par value (the "SPECIAL VOTING STOCK"). 2. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. The holders of Special Voting Stock shall not be entitled to receive any dividends declared and paid by the Company. 3. VOTING RIGHTS. Except as otherwise required by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of record of the Special Voting Stock will be entitled to all of the voting rights, including the right to vote in person or by proxy, of the Special Voting Share on any matters, questions, proposals or propositions whatsoever that may properly come before the

2 shareholders of the Company at a meeting at which holders of the Company's Common Stock ("COMMON STOCK") are entitled to vote ("COMPANY MEETING") or with respect to all written consents sought by the Company from its shareholders including the holders of the Company's Common Stock ("COMPANY CONSENT"). The holders of record of the Special Voting Stock shall have a number of votes ("VOTING RIGHTS") at a Company Meeting or with respect to a Company Consent equal to the number of votes that the holders ("HOLDERS") of non-voting exchangeable shares ("EXCHANGEABLE SHARES") of each of UForce Company - Societe UForce and 3044869 Nova Scotia Limited would be entitled to if all such Exchangeable Shares were exchanged by the Holders for shares of the Common Stock. In respect of all matters concerning the Voting Rights, the Special Voting Stock and the Common Stock shall vote as a single class. 4. FRACTIONAL INTERESTS. (b) Pursuant to the terms of that certain Voting, Exchange and Support Agreement by and among the Company, 3044007 Nova Scotia Company, UForce Company - Societe UForce, 3044869 Nova Scotia Limited and each Holder, each Holder of Exchangeable Shares will be issued a fractional interest ("FRACTIONAL INTEREST") in the sole share of Special Voting Stock initially equal to the fraction obtained by dividing (i) the number of Exchangeable Shares held by such Holder at the time of the issuance of such fractional interest, by (ii) the total number of Exchangeable Shares outstanding at such time. The Fractional Interest of each Holder will automatically adjust from time to time, without any further action of the Company or the Holders, upon any change in the number of issued Exchangeable Shares such that each Holder's Fractional Interest at any time shall equal the fraction obtained by dividing (i) the number of Exchangeable Shares held by such Holder at such time, by (ii) the total number of Exchangeable Shares outstanding at such time. (c) The Fractional Interest of each Holder shall entitle such Holder to cast and exercise at each Company Meeting or on all Company Consents a number of votes equal to the number of votes to which a holder of one Common Stock is entitled to cast and exercise thereat or with respect thereto for each Exchangeable Share owned of record by such Holder on the record date established by the Company for such Company Meeting or Company Consent, as the case may be. (d) At such time as the Special Voting Stock has no votes attached to it because there are no Exchangeable Shares outstanding which are not owned by the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any person directly or indirectly controlled by or under common control of the Company, the Special Voting shall be cancelled. 5. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, and subject to any prior rights of holders of shares of Preferred Stock ranking senior to the Special Voting Stock, the holders of the share of Special Voting Stock shall be paid an amount totaling $0.001, together with payment to any class of stock ranking equally with the Special Voting Stock, and before payment shall be made to the holders of any stock ranking on liquidation junior to the Special Voting Stock. -7-

3 6. RANKING. The Special Voting Stock shall rank junior to all other series of the Company's Preferred Stock, unless the terms of any such series shall provide otherwise. RESOLVED FURTHER, that the Chief Executive Officer, President or any Vice President and the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company be, and they hereby are, authorized and directed to prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and filed) a Certificate of the Powers, Designations, Preferences and Rights in accordance with the foregoing resolution and the provisions of Delaware law and to take such actions as they may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent of the foregoing resolutions." IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed and subscribed to this Certificate and do hereby affirm the foregoing as true under the penalties of perjury as of the 29th day of June, 2000. 8X8, INC. /s/ Paul Voois ---------------------------------------- Paul Voois President -8-

Netergy shall cooperate with the Holders in supplying such information as may be necessary for the Holders to complete and file any information reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the SEC as a condition to the availability of Rule 144.

6 damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based in any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Netergy by an instrument duly executed by such Holder or any person who controls the Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein or (ii) if a Holder disposes of Registrable Securities or Option Shares in breach of the first sentence of Section 3(b). (c) Each Holder of Registrable Securities and/or Option Shares will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless Netergy, each of its directors and officers and each person who controls Netergy within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or a material fact contained in any registration statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or prospectus related thereto, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement or prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Netergy by an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein and will reimburse Netergy, the remaining Holders, such directors, officers, or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement or prospectus, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Netergy by an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the maximum amount of liability in respect of such indemnification shall be in proportion to and limited to, in the case of each Holder of Registrable Securities and/or Option Shares, an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities and/or Option Shares effected pursuant to such registration. (d) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 6 (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") promptly after such Indemnified Party has notice of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be responsible for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that, if any Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal or equitable defenses available to such Indemnified Party which are additional to or conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party, or that such claim or litigation involves or could have an effect upon matters beyond the scope of the indemnity agreement provided in this Section 6, then the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party and such Indemnifying Party shall reimburse such Indemnified Party and any Person controlling such Indemnified Party for that portion of the fees and expenses of -14-

7 any counsel retained by the Indemnified Party which is reasonably related to the matters covered by the indemnity agreement provided in this Section 6. The Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend against such claim or litigation is impaired as a result of such failure to give notice. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Whether or not the defense of any claim or action is assumed by the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement without its consent. (e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that, if the circumstances described in either proviso of Section 6(a) apply to the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to contribute with respect to such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent set forth in such proviso. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. (f) Netergy and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 6(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Sections 6(c) and 6(d). The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in subsection (d) of this Section 6 shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.

1 Exhibit 10.2 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EMPLOYMENT AND STOCK RESTRICTION AGREEMENT Entered into in the City of Montreal, Quebec, as of the 30th day of June, 2000 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BY AND AMONG: UFORCE COMPANY (hereinafter referred to as "UForce"); AND: 8x8, Inc., doing business as Netergy Networks ("NETERGY"); AND: JEAN-LUC CALONNE (hereinafter referred to as "EMPLOYEE") domiciled at the address set forth on Exhibit A; AND: The entities holding securities for the benefit of Employee as identified on Exhibit A (collectively, the "HOLDING COMPANY"). RECITALS A. Netergy, UForce, and the other parties hereto have entered into a Share Exchange Agreement dated as of May 19, 2000, (the "Share Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which Netergy will acquire UForce, and which requires, among other things, that Employee enter into this Employment and Stock Restriction Agreement (the "AGREEMENT"). B. Employee has the right to receive a significant number of Netergy shares of stock pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, and Employee acknowledges that a portion of the consideration paid by Netergy in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement is based on Employee entering into this Agreement. Such shares may be held on behalf of Employee by Holding Company.

2 THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED AS FOLLOWS: ARTICLE 1 - OBJECT 1.1 Employment UForce wishes to employ the services of Employee, and Employee consents to render such services. 1.2 Terms By this Agreement, UForce and Employee intend to establish the terms of Employee's employment with UForce. ARTICLE 2 - EMPLOYMENT 2.1 Title UForce employs and retains Employee, who accepts, employment as the job title set forth in Exhibit A. 2.2 Conflicting Employment Employee agrees that Employee will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity during the term of Employee's employment, nor will Employee engage in any other activities that conflict with Employee's obligations to UForce, except as specified in Exhibit A. 2.3 Effectiveness This Agreement will become effective as of the Closing of the transactions contemplated in the Share Exchange Agreement (the "EFFECTIVE DATE"). If the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement are not consummated, this Agreement will be null and void. ARTICLE 3 - DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES 3.1 Duties Employee answers to the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of Netergy or such other officer of Netergy designated by the CEO of Netergy and has the functions, responsibilities, powers and duties inherent to the job title as set forth in Exhibit A, along with any other duties that may be entrusted to Employee from time to time by the CEO of Netergy. 3.2 Responsibilities -2-

3 Employee commits to act with diligence, loyalty and honesty, in the best interest of UForce and to accomplish Employee's functions, duties and responsibilities exclusively for UForce, according to Employee's best judgment and to the best of Employee's knowledge and competence. ARTICLE 4 - REMUNERATION 4.1 Base Compensation In consideration for the services that Employee must render to UForce pursuant to this Agreement, UForce agrees to pay to Employee the annual base salary set forth in Exhibit A, subject to the usual deductions and the applicable laws and in compliance with the administrative practices of UForce. This salary shall be revised by Netergy's Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee as part of an annual review process. Any salary revision will take into account Employee's performance, the conditions of the market, and the policies of UForce. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no downward adjustment in Employee's salary so long as Employee beneficially owns Unvested Shares. The base salary specified in this Article 4.1 is referred to in this Agreement as Employee's "BASE COMPENSATION." 4.2 Option Employee has already been granted a certain number of UForce options. In the event, however, that the grant of these options is disallowed, Netergy will grant Employee options, pursuant to the following terms and conditions: Netergy will grant Employee an initial option (the "OPTION") to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock ("COMMON SHARES") of Netergy as set forth in Exhibit A, pursuant to Netergy's stock plan and standard form of stock option agreement. The grant will be made effective at the Effective Date. The Option exercise price will be equal to the last closing price of Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market System on the trading date immediately prior to the Effective Date. Fifty percent (50%) of the Common Shares underlying the Option will vest on the six-month anniversary of the effective date of approval of the grant of the Option by Netergy's Board of Directors. One thirty-sixth (1/36th) of the total Common Shares underlying the Option will vest on each monthly anniversary thereafter. The Option will expire on the tenth anniversary of the grant date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with its terms. ARTICLE 5 - OTHER BENEFITS 5.1 Fringe Benefits Employee receives all fringe benefits offered to executives of UForce and will be eligible for all other benefits offered in the future to employees, including short term disability coverage at 100% of base salary up to a maximum of six months; parking; and membership for professional associations. -3-

4 5.2 Vacation Employee shall have the right during each year to take an aggregate of 20 days of paid vacation per year. 5.3 Office Location Employee shall be employed in the office identified in Exhibit A (the "OFFICE"), and shall not be required to relocate to any other office not located within 50 miles of the Office, without Employee's prior written consent (an "UNAPPROVED RELOCATION"). If Employee relocates at the request of UForce and later is constructively terminated or terminated without serious reason, UForce shall pay or reimburse Employee for reasonable moving expenses to relocate Employee to the metropolitan area of the office from which Employee initially relocated. ARTICLE 6 - TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT 6.1 By Death Employee's employment shall terminate automatically upon the death of Employee. In such event, UForce shall pay to Employee's beneficiaries or estate, any accrued Base Compensation, vested deferred compensation (other than pension plan or profit-sharing plan benefits which will be paid in accordance with the applicable plan), benefits under any plan of UForce in which Employee is a participant, and accrued vacation pay, all to the date of termination (collectively "ACCRUED COMPENSATION"), but no other compensation or reimbursement of any kind, including, without limitation, severance compensation, and thereafter, UForce's obligations hereunder shall terminate. 6.2 By Resignation of Employee Employee shall provide UForce thirty (30) days advanced written notice in the case of a voluntary resignation. If Employee's employment terminates due to Employee's voluntary resignation, UForce shall pay Employee all Accrued Compensation, but no other compensation or reimbursement of any kind, including without limitation, severance compensation, and thereafter UForce's obligations hereunder shall terminate. 6.3 By UForce For Serious Reason UForce may terminate the employment promptly after written notice for a serious reason. 6.4 By UForce Without Serious Reason or By Constructive Termination At any time after the commencement of employment, UForce may, without serious reason and without notice, terminate Employee's employment. Should Employee be terminated by UForce without serious reason, or should Employee resign as a result of a Constructive Termination (as defined below), Employee shall be entitled to receive all -4-

5 Accrued Compensation, as well as six (6) months of Base Compensation then in effect for Employee, payable in one lump sum promptly after the termination date. 6.5 Written Release The Employee recognizes and accepts that UForce shall not, in any case, be responsible for any additional amount, indemnity in lieu of notice, severance pay or other damages arising from the termination of Employee's employment, above and beyond those specifically provided for herein. Employee undertakes to give to UForce a full and satisfactory written release upon receipt of the payment due to Employee in accordance with this Article 6. ARTICLE 7 - REPURCHASE OPTION 7.1 Netergy's Repurchase Option In connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, Employee either directly or through Holding Company has the right to receive a number of Exchangeable Shares, as defined in the Share Exchange Agreement (the "SHARES"). For purposes of this Agreement the term Shares also shall mean the Netergy Common Stock issuable upon exchange of the Exchangeable Shares. Employee and Holding Company hereby grant Netergy the option to repurchase all or a portion of the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Article (the "REPURCHASE OPTION") if Employee ceases to be employed by Netergy for any reason or no reason, except as set forth in Article 7.3. For purposes of this Agreement, the date when Employee is notified of the termination of his or her employment shall be deemed the "TERMINATION DATE." 7.2 Unvested and Vested Shares Shares that are subject to Netergy's Repurchase Option are referred to as "UNVESTED SHARES" and Shares that are no longer subject to Netergy's Repurchase Option are deemed "VESTED SHARES." On the Effective Date, 100% of the Shares will be Unvested Shares. Thereafter, for so long (and only for so long) as Employee remains continuously employed by UForce at all times, the Unvested Shares will become Vested Shares as set forth in the schedule provided in Exhibit A. No Unvested Shares will become Vested Shares after the Termination Date. 7.3 Acceleration of Vesting of Unvested Shares Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Netergy's Repurchase Option shall terminate and the vesting of Unvested Shares shall accelerate as follows: 7.3.1 The percentage of Unvested Shares set forth under the heading Section 7.3.1 in Exhibit A shall become Vested Shares if Employee is terminated with serious reason on or prior to the date that is six months after the Effective Date (the "SIX MONTH ANNIVERSARY"). -5-

6 7.3.2 Fifty percent (50%) of the then Unvested Shares shall become Vested Shares after the close of trading of Netergy Common Stock on the first date (the "MARKET BASED VESTING DATE") after the Effective Date that the 30-day moving average of the closing price of Netergy Common Stock as reported on Nasdaq National Market System (the "AVERAGE PRICE") equals or exceeds US $40. Vesting of the remaining Unvested Shares shall continue at half the rate set forth in Exhibit A. 7.3.3 All Unvested Shares shall immediately become Vested Shares: 7.3.3.1 on the date that the Average Price equals or exceeds US $80; 7.3.3.2 if Employee is terminated without serious reason by UForce or resigns as a result of a Constructive Termination, where "CONSTRUCTIVE TERMINATION" shall have the meaning as set forth under Quebec law, however, shall not be construed to apply to any reduction in salary, benefits or responsibilities that have also been made applicable to all other employees at Employee's level; 7.3.3.3 upon the death or Disability of Employee, where "DISABILITY" shall mean the Employee is prevented from properly performing Employee's duties hereunder by reason of any physical or mental incapacity for a period of six consecutive months or shorter periods aggregating to four months in any 365-day period; or 7.3.3.4 upon the closing of a transaction relating to a Change of Control.

7 The number of Shares that are Vested Shares or Unvested Shares will be deemed issued and outstanding and will have the same rights accorded them as other issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of Netergy, and accordingly, will be proportionally adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or recapitalization of Common Stock of Netergy occurring after the Effective Date. 7.5 Exercise of Repurchase Option At any time within ninety (90) days after the Termination Date, Netergy may elect, or designate any third party, to repurchase any or all of the Unvested Shares by giving Employee written notice of exercise of the Repurchase Option. Netergy and/or its designee(s) will then have the option to repurchase from Employee or Holding Company (or from Employee's personal representative as the case may be) any or all of the Unvested Shares at the price per share set forth in Exhibit A (as adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or recapitalization of the Common Stock of Netergy occurring after the Effective Date). 7.6 Payment of Repurchase Price The repurchase price payable to purchase Unvested Shares upon exercise of the Repurchase Option will be payable, at the option of Netergy or its assignee(s), by certified check or by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of Employee to Netergy (or to such assignee) or by any combination thereof. The repurchase price will be paid without interest within ninety (90) days after the Termination Date. 7.7 Restrictions on Transfer (the "LOCK UP") Employee and Holding Company agree that they will not make any offering, sale, short sale or other disposition of the Unvested Shares directly or indirectly without the prior written consent of Netergy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Shares become Vested Shares pursuant to Section 7.3.1, prior to the Six Month Anniversary Employee and Holding Company will not make any offering, sale, short sale or other disposition of such Shares directly or indirectly without the prior written consent of Netergy. 7.8 Restrictive Legends In addition to legends set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, so long as Shares are subject to the Repurchase Option, the share certificate evidencing the Shares shall be endorsed with the following legends (in addition to any legends required under applicable securities laws): THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE SHAREHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY. -7-

1 Exhibit 10.3 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EMPLOYMENT AND STOCK RESTRICTION AGREEMENT Entered into in the City of Montreal, Quebec, as of the 30th day of June, 2000 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BY AND AMONG: UFORCE COMPANY (hereinafter referred to as "UForce"); AND: 8x8, Inc., doing business as Netergy Networks ("NETERGY"); AND: CYRILLE THILLOY (hereinafter referred to as "EMPLOYEE") domiciled at the address set forth on Exhibit A; AND: The entity holding securities for the benefit of Employee as identified on Exhibit A (the "HOLDING COMPANY"). RECITALS A. Netergy, UForce, and the other parties hereto have entered into a Share Exchange Agreement dated as of May 19, 2000, (the "Share Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which Netergy will acquire UForce, and which requires, among other things, that Employee enter into this Employment and Stock Restriction Agreement (the "AGREEMENT"). B. Employee has the right to receive a significant number of Netergy shares of stock pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, and Employee acknowledges that a portion of the consideration paid by Netergy in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement is based on Employee entering into this Agreement. Such shares may be held on behalf of Employee by Holding Company.

2 THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED AS FOLLOWS: ARTICLE 1 - OBJECT 1.1 Employment UForce wishes to employ the services of Employee, and Employee consents to render such services. 1.2 Terms By this Agreement, UForce and Employee intend to establish the terms of Employee's employment with UForce. ARTICLE 2 - EMPLOYMENT 2.1 Title UForce employs and retains Employee, who accepts, employment as the job title set forth in Exhibit A. 2.2 Conflicting Employment Employee agrees that Employee will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity during the term of Employee's employment, nor will Employee engage in any other activities that conflict with Employee's obligations to UForce, except as specified in Exhibit A. 2.3 Effectiveness This Agreement will become effective as of the Closing of the transactions contemplated in the Share Exchange Agreement (the "EFFECTIVE DATE"). If the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement are not consummated, this Agreement will be null and void. ARTICLE 3 - DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES 3.1 Duties Employee answers to the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of Netergy or such other officer of Netergy designated by the CEO of Netergy and has the functions, responsibilities, powers and duties inherent to the job title as set forth in Exhibit A, along with any other duties that may be entrusted to Employee from time to time by the CEO of Netergy. 3.2 Responsibilities -2-

3 Employee commits to act with diligence, loyalty and honesty, in the best interest of UForce and to accomplish Employee's functions, duties and responsibilities exclusively for UForce, according to Employee's best judgment and to the best of Employee's knowledge and competence. ARTICLE 4 - REMUNERATION 4.1 Base Compensation In consideration for the services that Employee must render to UForce pursuant to this Agreement, UForce agrees to pay to Employee the annual base salary set forth in Exhibit A, subject to the usual deductions and the applicable laws and in compliance with the administrative practices of UForce. This salary shall be revised by Netergy's Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee as part of an annual review process. Any salary revision will take into account Employee's performance, the conditions of the market, and the policies of UForce. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no downward adjustment in Employee's salary so long as Employee beneficially owns Unvested Shares. The base salary specified in this Article 4.1 is referred to in this Agreement as Employee's "BASE COMPENSATION." 4.2 Option Employee has already been granted a certain number of UForce options. In the event, however, that the grant of these options is disallowed, Netergy will grant Employee options, pursuant to the following terms and conditions: Netergy will grant Employee an initial option (the "OPTION") to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock ("COMMON SHARES") of Netergy as set forth in Exhibit A, pursuant to Netergy's stock plan and standard form of stock option agreement. The grant will be made effective at the Effective Date. The Option exercise price will be equal to the last closing price of Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market System on the trading date immediately prior to the Effective Date. Fifty percent (50%) of the Common Shares underlying the Option will vest on the six-month anniversary of the effective date of approval of the grant of the Option by Netergy's Board of Directors. One thirty-sixth (1/36th) of the total Common Shares underlying the Option will vest on each monthly anniversary thereafter. The Option will expire on the tenth anniversary of the grant date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with its terms. ARTICLE 5 - OTHER BENEFITS 5.1 Fringe Benefits Employee receives all fringe benefits offered to executives of UForce and will be eligible for all other benefits offered in the future to employees, including short term disability coverage at 100% of base salary up to a maximum of six months; parking; and membership for professional associations. -3-

4 5.2 Vacation Employee shall have the right during each year to take an aggregate of 20 days of paid vacation per year. 5.3 Office Location Employee shall be employed in the office identified in Exhibit A (the "OFFICE"), and shall not be required to relocate to any other office not located within 50 miles of the Office, without Employee's prior written consent (an "UNAPPROVED RELOCATION"). If Employee relocates at the request of UForce and later is constructively terminated or terminated without serious reason, UForce shall pay or reimburse Employee for reasonable moving expenses to relocate Employee to the metropolitan area of the office from which Employee initially relocated. ARTICLE 6 - TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT 6.1 By Death Employee's employment shall terminate automatically upon the death of Employee. In such event, UForce shall pay to Employee's beneficiaries or estate, any accrued Base Compensation, vested deferred compensation (other than pension plan or profit-sharing plan benefits which will be paid in accordance with the applicable plan), benefits under any plan of UForce in which Employee is a participant, and accrued vacation pay, all to the date of termination (collectively "ACCRUED COMPENSATION"), but no other compensation or reimbursement of any kind, including, without limitation, severance compensation, and thereafter, UForce's obligations hereunder shall terminate. 6.2 By Resignation of Employee Employee shall provide UForce thirty (30) days advanced written notice in the case of a voluntary resignation. If Employee's employment terminates due to Employee's voluntary resignation, UForce shall pay Employee all Accrued Compensation, but no other compensation or reimbursement of any kind, including without limitation, severance compensation, and thereafter UForce's obligations hereunder shall terminate. 6.3 By UForce For Serious Reason UForce may terminate the employment promptly after written notice for a serious reason. 6.4 By UForce Without Serious Reason or By Constructive Termination At any time after the commencement of employment, UForce may, without serious reason and without notice, terminate Employee's employment. Should Employee be terminated by UForce without serious reason, or should Employee resign as a result of a Constructive Termination (as defined below), Employee shall be entitled to receive all -4-

5 Accrued Compensation, as well as six (6) months of Base Compensation then in effect for Employee, payable in one lump sum promptly after the termination date. 6.5 Written Release The Employee recognizes and accepts that UForce shall not, in any case, be responsible for any additional amount, indemnity in lieu of notice, severance pay or other damages arising from the termination of Employee's employment, above and beyond those specifically provided for herein. Employee undertakes to give to UForce a full and satisfactory written release upon receipt of the payment due to Employee in accordance with this Article 6. ARTICLE 7 - REPURCHASE OPTION 7.1 Netergy's Repurchase Option In connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, Employee either directly or through Holding Company has the right to receive a number of Exchangeable Shares, as defined in the Share Exchange Agreement (the "SHARES"). For purposes of this Agreement the term Shares also shall mean the Netergy Common Stock issuable upon exchange of the Exchangeable Shares. Employee and Holding Company hereby grant Netergy the option to repurchase all or a portion of the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Article (the "REPURCHASE OPTION") if Employee ceases to be employed by Netergy for any reason or no reason, except as set forth in Article 7.3. For purposes of this Agreement, the date when Employee is notified of the termination of his or her employment shall be deemed the "TERMINATION DATE." 7.2 Unvested and Vested Shares Shares that are subject to Netergy's Repurchase Option are referred to as "UNVESTED SHARES" and Shares that are no longer subject to Netergy's Repurchase Option are deemed "VESTED SHARES." On the Effective Date, 100% of the Shares will be Unvested Shares. Thereafter, for so long (and only for so long) as Employee remains continuously employed by UForce at all times, the Unvested Shares will become Vested Shares as set forth in the schedule provided in Exhibit A. No Unvested Shares will become Vested Shares after the Termination Date. 7.3 Acceleration of Vesting of Unvested Shares Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Netergy's Repurchase Option shall terminate and the vesting of Unvested Shares shall accelerate as follows: 7.3.1 The percentage of Unvested Shares set forth under the heading Section 7.3.1 in Exhibit A shall become Vested Shares if Employee is terminated with serious reason on or prior to the date that is six months after the Effective Date (the "SIX MONTH ANNIVERSARY"). -5-

6 7.3.2 Fifty percent (50%) of the then Unvested Shares shall become Vested Shares after the close of trading of Netergy Common Stock on the first date (the "MARKET BASED VESTING DATE") after the Effective Date that the 30-day moving average of the closing price of Netergy Common Stock as reported on Nasdaq National Market System (the "AVERAGE PRICE") equals or exceeds US $40. Vesting of the remaining Unvested Shares shall continue at half the rate set forth in Exhibit A. 7.3.3 All Unvested Shares shall immediately become Vested Shares: 7.3.3.1 on the date that the Average Price equals or exceeds US $80; 7.3.3.2 if Employee is terminated without serious reason by UForce or resigns as a result of a Constructive Termination, where "CONSTRUCTIVE TERMINATION" shall have the meaning as set forth under Quebec law, however, shall not be construed to apply to any reduction in salary, benefits or responsibilities that have also been made applicable to all other employees at Employee's level; 7.3.3.3 upon the death or Disability of Employee, where "DISABILITY" shall mean the Employee is prevented from properly performing Employee's duties hereunder by reason of any physical or mental incapacity for a period of six consecutive months or shorter periods aggregating to four months in any 365-day period; or 7.3.3.4 upon the closing of a transaction relating to a Change of Control. As used herein, "CHANGE OF CONTROL" shall mean (i) a transaction or series of transactions, including by merger or consolidation of Netergy into or with any other entity or corporation or the merger or consolidation of any other corporation into or with Netergy, in which any person, entity or group of persons and/or entities acquire(s) shares of Netergy stock representing 35% or more of the outstanding voting power of Netergy, including voting shares issued or issuable upon conversion of any convertible security outstanding on the date of such transaction including without limitation stock options, (ii) a change in the composition of Netergy's Board of Directors as a result of an appointment or election (or series of related appointments or elections intended to effect a change in the Board) such that a majority of the members following such election(s) or appointment(s) were not members of the Board prior to such election(s) or appointment(s); (iii) a sale of all or substantially all of Netergy's assets; or (iv) a sale of UForce by stock or asset transaction. 7.4 Adjustments -6-

7 The number of Shares that are Vested Shares or Unvested Shares will be deemed issued and outstanding and will have the same rights accorded them as other issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of Netergy, and accordingly, will be proportionally adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or recapitalization of Common Stock of Netergy occurring after the Effective Date. 7.5 Exercise of Repurchase Option At any time within ninety (90) days after the Termination Date, Netergy may elect, or designate any third party, to repurchase any or all of the Unvested Shares by giving Employee written notice of exercise of the Repurchase Option. Netergy and/or its designee(s) will then have the option to repurchase from Employee or Holding Company (or from Employee's personal representative as the case may be) any or all of the Unvested Shares at the price per share set forth in Exhibit A (as adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or recapitalization of the Common Stock of Netergy occurring after the Effective Date). 7.6 Payment of Repurchase Price The repurchase price payable to purchase Unvested Shares upon exercise of the Repurchase Option will be payable, at the option of Netergy or its assignee(s), by certified check or by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of Employee to Netergy (or to such assignee) or by any combination thereof. The repurchase price will be paid without interest within ninety (90) days after the Termination Date. 7.7 Restrictions on Transfer (the "LOCK UP") Employee and Holding Company agree that they will not make any offering, sale, short sale or other disposition of the Unvested Shares directly or indirectly without the prior written consent of Netergy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Shares become Vested Shares pursuant to Section 7.3.1, prior to the Six Month Anniversary Employee and Holding Company will not make any offering, sale, short sale or other disposition of such Shares directly or indirectly without the prior written consent of Netergy. 7.8 Restrictive Legends In addition to legends set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, so long as Shares are subject to the Repurchase Option, the share certificate evidencing the Shares shall be endorsed with the following legends (in addition to any legends required under applicable securities laws): THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE SHAREHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY. -7-
