            (c)   No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any court, administrative agency or commission or other governmental authority or instrumentality ("Governmental Entity") is required by or with respect to Seller or the Assets in connection with the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and thereby, except for (i) filings, if any, required under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) such consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations and filings as may be required under applicable state securities laws; and (iii) such other consents, authorizations, filings, approvals and registrations which, if not obtained or made, would not prevent or materially alter or delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

With respect to each agreement so listed: (i) the agreement is legal, valid, binding and enforceable and in full force and effect with respect to Seller, and to Seller's and the Founders' knowledge is legal, valid, binding, enforceable and in full force and effect with respect to each other party thereto, in either case subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and except as the availability of equitable remedies may be limited by general principles of equity; (ii) the agreement will continue to be legal, valid, binding and enforceable and in full force and effect immediately following the Closing in accordance with the terms thereof as in effect prior to the Closing, subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and except as the availability of equitable remedies may be limited by general principles of equity; and (iii) neither the Seller nor, to Seller's and the Founders' knowledge, any other party, is in breach or default, and no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of time would constitute a breach or default by Seller or, to Seller's and the Founders' knowledge, by any such other party, or permit termination, modification or acceleration, under the agreement. Seller is not a party to any oral Material Contract. "Material Contract" means any contract, agreement or commitment to which Seller is a party, including, but not limited to, any leases, licenses, customer or royalty agreements (a schedule of all customer agreements will be provided to Kintera and Purchaser by email prior to the Closing Date), development agreements, service agreements, distributor agreements or any other obligations (a) with expected receipts or expenditures in excess of $1,000, (b) requiring Seller to indemnify any party or person, (c) granting any exclusive rights to any party, (d) evidencing indebtedness for borrowed or loaned money of $1,000 or more, including guarantees of such indebtedness, or (e) which if breached by Seller would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller. Seller is not a party to any agreement with any salesperson, consultant, contractor or other party obligating Seller to pay any commission or compensation to such other party after the Closing with respect to the purchases of any current or prospective customer.

        Section 3.12    Labor Difficulties.    Seller is not engaged in any unfair labor practice or in violation of any applicable laws respecting employment, employment practices or terms and conditions of employment. There is no unfair labor practice complaint against Seller pending or threatened before any Governmental Entity.

All of the prices charged by Seller in connection with the marketing or sale of any of its services have been in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, except for such noncompliance that would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller or the Assets. No claims have been asserted or, to the knowledge of Seller, threatened against Seller with respect to unfair competition, false advertising, or any other

10



violation of any laws or regulations relating to anti-competitive practices or unfair trade practices of any kind, and, to the knowledge of Seller, no specific situation, set of facts, or occurrence provides any basis for any such claim, except for such claims that would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller or the Assets.

        Section 3.14    Environmental Matters.    

            (a)   None of the properties or facilities of Seller is in violation of any federal state or local law, ordinance, regulation or order relating to the protection of public health and safety, the protection of worker health and safety or the environmental conditions on, under or about the properties or facilities, including, but not limited to, soil and ground water condition except where the violations would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

            (b)   During the time that Seller has owned or leased its properties or facilities, there has been no litigation brought or threatened against Seller by, or any settlement reached by Seller with, any party or parties alleging the presence, disposal, release or threatened release of any hazardous materials on, from or under any of the properties or facilities.

        Section 3.15    Employee Benefit Plans.    

            (a)   Schedule 3.15 of the Disclosure Schedule lists, with respect to Seller, any subsidiary of Seller and any trade or business (whether or not incorporated) which is treated as a single employer with Seller (an "ERISA Affiliate") within the meaning of Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code, each plan, program, policy, practice, contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for employment, compensation, severance, relocation, termination pay, deferred compensation, sabbatical, performance awards, bonus, stock or stock-related awards, fringe benefit, cafeteria benefit, dependent care, including without limitation, each "employee benefit plan" as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") which is or has been maintained, contributed to, or required to be contributed by Seller or any ERISA Affiliate or with respect to which Seller or any ERISA Affiliate has or may have any liability or obligation (collectively, the "Seller Employee Plans"). None of the Seller Employee Plans promises or provides retiree medical or other retiree welfare benefits to any person. Seller does not have any plan or commitment to establish any new Seller Employee Plans or amend any Seller Employee Plan which would materially increase the expense of maintaining such Plan above the level of expense incurred with respect to that Plan for the most recent fiscal year included in Seller's financial statements.

            (b)    Documents.    Seller has furnished to Kintera true and complete copies of documents relating to each Seller Employee Plan, including (without limitation) plan documents, trust documents, the most recent determination or opinion letter, group annuity contracts, plan amendments, insurance policies or contracts, individual participant agreements, employee booklets, administrative service agreements, summary plan descriptions, compliance and nondiscrimination tests for the last three plan years, Form 5500 reports filed for the last three plan years, standard Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ("COBRA") forms and notices, all registration statements and prospectuses, and any material employee communications relating to any Seller Employee Plan.

            (c)    Compliance.    Each Seller Employee Plan has been administered in accordance with its terms and in material compliance with the requirements prescribed by any and all statutes, rules and regulations (including ERISA and the Code) and Seller and each ERISA Affiliate have performed all material obligations required to be performed by them under, are not in default

11



    under or violation of and have no knowledge of any default or violation by any other party to, any of the Seller Employee Plans except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller. Any Seller Employee Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has obtained from the Internal Revenue Service a favorable determination letter or opinion letter as to its qualified status under the Code and nothing has occurred since the issuance of each such letter which could reasonably be expected to cause the loss of the tax-qualified status of any Seller Employee Plan subject to Code Section 401(a). Seller and each of its subsidiaries have complied in all material respects with, and have no material unsatisfied obligations to any individual under, the health care continuation and notice provisions of COBRA, or any applicable state continuation coverage requirements, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and the Cancer Rights Act of 1998. There are no suits, administrative proceedings, actions or other litigation which have been brought, or to the knowledge of Seller threatened, against or with respect to any such Seller Employee Plan, including specifically any audit or inquiry by the Internal Revenue Service or the Department of Labor. All contributions required to be made by Seller, any subsidiary or ERISA Affiliate, to any Seller Employee Plan have been made timely in accordance with applicable ERISA requirements and have either been made on or before their due dates or a reasonable amount has been paid or accrued, in accordance with Seller's ordinary business procedures for the current plan years.

            (d)    No Title IV or Multiemployer Plan.    Seller does not now, nor has it ever, maintained, established, sponsored, participated in, or contributed to, any pension plan which is subject to Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code. Neither Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate is a party to, has made or is required to make any contribution to, or otherwise incurred any obligation or liability (including contingent liability) under, any "multiemployer plan" as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA. Neither Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate has any actual or potential withdrawal liability (including contingent liability) for any complete or partial withdrawal from any multi-employer plan.

            (e)    Effect of Transaction.    The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not (i) entitle any current or former employee or other service provider of Seller, to severance benefits or any other payment (including, without limitation, unemployment compensation, golden parachute or bonus), except as expressly provided in this Agreement or (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting of any such benefits, or increase the amount of compensation due any such employee or service provider. No benefit payable or which may become payable by Seller pursuant to any Seller Employee Plan or as a result of or arising under this Agreement shall constitute an "excess parachute payment" (as defined in Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code) which is subject to the imposition of an excise Tax under Section 4999 of the Code or the deduction for which would be disallowed by reason of Section 280G of the Code. Each Seller Employee Plan can be amended, terminated or otherwise discontinued after the Effective Time in accordance with its terms without material liability to Kintera.

        Section 3.16    Compliance with Laws.    Seller has complied with, is not in violation of, and has not received any notices of violation with respect to, any statute, law or regulation applicable to Seller, the ownership or operation of the Business, the Assets or the Founders except as such violation would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Seller or the Assets.

12



        Section 3.18    Litigation.    There is no action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or known investigation pending before any agency, court or tribunal or, to the knowledge of Seller or the Founders, threatened against Seller, or Seller's properties or officers or Managers (in their capacities as such), the Founders or the Assets, or in which any of Seller, Seller's officers or Managers (in their capacities as such) or the Founders is a plaintiff. There is no judgment, decree or order against Seller, the Founders or, to the knowledge of Seller and the Founders, any of the Managers or officers (in their capacities as such). All litigation to which Seller, the Founders or the Assets is a party (or, to their knowledge, threatened to become a party) is disclosed in Schedule 3.18 of the Disclosure Schedule.

        Section 3.19    Restrictions on Business Activities.    There is no agreement, judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon Seller or the Founders which has or could reasonably be expected to have the effect of prohibiting or materially impairing any current business practice of Seller or the Founders or the operation of the Business as currently conducted.

        Section 3.20    Governmental Authorization.    Seller has obtained each governmental consent, license, permit, grant or other authorization of a Governmental Entity that is required for the operation of the Business (collectively, the "Seller Authorizations"), and all of such Seller Authorizations are in full force and effect except where failure to obtain such Seller Authorization would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Seller or the Assets.

        Section 3.21    Insurance.    Schedule 3.21 of the Disclosure Schedule contains a list and description of all insurance policies in effect which are maintained by Seller or as to which Seller is an insured party. There is no claim pending under any of such policies as to which coverage has been questioned, denied or disputed by the underwriters of such policies. All premiums due and payable under all such policies have been paid, and Seller is otherwise in compliance with the terms of such policies. Seller has no knowledge of any threatened termination of, or premium increase with respect to, any of such policies.

        Section 3.22    Interested Party Transactions.    No officer or Manager of Seller has any interest in (i) any equipment or other property or asset, real or personal, tangible or intangible, including, without limitation, any of the Seller Intellectual Property Rights, used in connection with or pertaining to the business of Seller, (ii) any creditor, supplier, customer, manufacturer, agent, representative, or distributor of any of the Seller's products, (iii) any entity that competes with Seller, or with which Seller is affiliated or has a business relationship, or (iv) any agreement, obligation or commitment, written or oral, to which Seller is a party.

        Section 3.23    No Existing Discussions.    As of the date hereof, Seller is not engaged, directly or indirectly, in any discussions or negotiations with any party other than Purchaser and Kintera with respect to any merger, consolidation, sale of the Assets, or similar transactions.

        Section 3.24    Charter Documents.    Seller has furnished to Purchaser, or its representatives, for its examination (i) copies of all proceedings, consents, actions, and meetings of the Managers and Members and (ii) all permits, orders, and consents issued by any Governmental Entity with respect to Seller. The Seller's records, including the Seller's minute book, are complete and accurate in all material respects, and the signatures of all officers and Members and other persons appearing on all documents contained therein are the true signatures of the persons purporting to have signed the same. All actions reflected in such books and records were duly and validly taken in compliance with the laws of the applicable jurisdiction, except where non-compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect, individually or in the aggregate, on Seller or the Assets.

        Section 3.25    Accounts Receivable.    The accounts receivable of Seller arising from the Business as set forth on the Seller Financial Statements or arising since the date thereof are valid and genuine, have arisen solely out of bona fide sales and deliveries of goods, performance of services and other business transactions in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, are not subject to

13



valid defenses, set-offs or counterclaims, and are fully collectible in the normal and ordinary course of business after billing at the full recorded amount thereof less, in the case of accounts receivable appearing on the Seller Financial Statements, the recorded allowance for collection losses on the Seller Financial Statements. Seller has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances generally (other than general economic conditions) which would result in any increase in the uncollectibility of such accounts receivable. The allowance for collection losses on the Seller Financial Statements has been determined in accordance with GAAP consistent with past practice. The accounts payable, accounts receivable and accrued expenses of Seller as of the day prior to Closing are set forth in Schedule 3.25.

        Section 3.26    No Misrepresentation.    No representation or warranty by Seller or the Founders in this Agreement, or any written statement, document, certificate or schedule furnished or to be furnished by or on behalf of Seller or Founders pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, when taken together, contains or shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or shall omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make such statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Seller has delivered to Kintera or Purchaser or its representatives true and complete copies of all documents which are referred to in this Article III or in the Disclosure Schedule.

        Section 3.27    Use of Third Party Information.    Seller complies with all applicable United States, and to the best of its knowledge, foreign privacy laws and regulations regarding the collection, retention, use and disclosure of personal information, and Seller takes all appropriate and industry standard measures to protect and maintain the confidential nature of the personal information provided to Seller by individuals. Seller has adequate technological and procedural measures in place to protect personal information collected from individuals against loss, theft and unauthorized access or disclosure. Seller does not knowingly collect information from or target children under the age of thirteen. Seller does not sell, rent or otherwise make available to third parties any personal information submitted by individuals. Seller has the full power and authority to use and to transfer all rights Seller has in any third party's personal information in Seller's possession and/or control to Kintera and Purchaser. Seller is not a party to any contract, nor is it subject to any other obligation that, following the Closing, would prevent Kintera and Purchaser and/or the affiliates of Kintera from using such information in a manner consistent with applicable privacy laws, customer privacy policies and industry standards regarding the disclosure and use of information.

        Section 3.28    Investment Representations.    

            (a)   Seller is obtaining the Shares solely for its own account and for investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Seller further represents that it does not have any present intention of selling, offering to sell or otherwise disposing of or distributing its Shares or any portion thereof, other than as contemplated by Section 6.1; and that the entire legal and beneficial interest of the Shares it is receiving will be held for the account of, itself only and neither in whole nor in part for any other person.

            (b)    Knowledge of Kintera's Business.    Seller is aware of Kintera's business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about Kintera to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Seller further represents and warrants that it has discussed, or has had the opportunity to discuss, Kintera and its plans, operations and financial condition with its officers, has received all such information as it deems necessary and appropriate to enable it to evaluate the financial risk inherent in making an investment in the Shares and has received satisfactory and complete information concerning the business and financial condition of Kintera in response to all inquiries in respect thereof.

14



            (c)    Speculative Investment.    Seller realizes that its purchase of the Shares will be a highly speculative investment, and it is able, without impairing its financial condition, to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss on its investment.

            (d)    No Obligation to Register.    Kintera has disclosed to Seller that:

              (i)    The sale of the Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act, and the Shares must be held indefinitely unless a transfer of it is subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available, and that Kintera is under no obligation to register the Shares;

              (ii)   Kintera will make a notation in its records of the aforementioned restrictions on transfer and legends.

            (e)    Rule 144.    Seller is aware of the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of "restricted securities" acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer thereof (or an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including among other things: the resale occurring not less than one year from the date Seller receives its Shares; the availability of certain public information concerning Kintera; the sale being through a broker in an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in a transaction directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); and that any sale of the Shares may be made by it only in limited amounts during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. Seller further represents that it understands that at the time it wishes to sell the Shares there may be no public market upon which to make such a sale, and that, even if such a public market then exists, Kintera may not be satisfying the current public information requirements of Rule 144, and that, in such event, it would be precluded from selling the Shares under Rule 144 even if the one-year minimum holding period had been satisfied. Seller represents that it understands that in the event all of the requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act or compliance with an exemption from registration will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the staff of the Securities Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

            (f)    Acknowledgement of Legends.    Seller acknowledges that the certificate representing the Shares will bear the legends set forth in the Securityholders Agreement.

        Section 3.29    Employee Matters.    Seller is in compliance with all currently applicable laws and regulations respecting terms and conditions of employment including, without limitation, applicant and employee background checking, immigration laws, discrimination laws, verification of employment eligibility, employee leave laws, classification of workers as employees and independent contractors, wage and hour laws, and occupational safety and health laws, except where any failure to comply would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect. There are no proceedings pending or, to Seller's or the Founders' knowledge, reasonably expected or threatened, between Seller, on the one hand, and any or all of its current or former employees, on the other hand, including, but not limited to, any claims for actual or alleged harassment or discrimination based on race, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or similar tortious conduct, breach of contract, wrongful termination, defamation, intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress, interference with contract or interference with actual or prospective economic disadvantage. There are no claims pending, or, to Seller's or the Founders' knowledge, reasonably expected or threatened, against Seller under any workers' compensation or long term disability plan or policy. Seller has no unsatisfied obligations that would have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller to any employees, former employees, or qualified

15


beneficiaries pursuant to COBRA, HIPAA, or any state law governing health care coverage extension or continuation. Seller is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement or other labor union contract, nor does Seller know of any activities or proceedings of any labor union to organize its employees. Seller has provided all employees with all wages, benefits, relocation benefits, stock options, bonuses and incentives, and all other compensation which became due and payable through the date of this Agreement.

In case the Securityholders' Agent shall so object in writing to any claim or claims by Kintera or Purchaser made in any Officer's Certificate, Kintera or Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days to respond in a written statement to the objection of the Securityholders' Agent. If after such thirty (30) calendar day period there remains a dispute as to any claims, the Securityholders' Agent and Kintera or Purchaser shall attempt in good faith for sixty (60) days to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Securityholders' Agent and Kintera or Purchaser should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both and the distribution or cancellation, if any, of Escrow Securities shall be made in connection therewith in accordance with Section 8.2 and 8.5.
