According to the records of our transfer agent, at the close of business on the record date, we had outstanding and entitled to vote 219,721,294 shares of common stock (including 60,567,732 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of 2,806,103 outstanding shares of our Series A preferred stock).

Abstentions and broker non-votes (meaning proxies submitted by brokers as holders of record on behalf of their customers that do not indicate how to vote on the proposal) are also considered part of the quorum.
How many votes are required to approve the proposal?
The proposal to amend our certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split will be deemed approved and ratifiedby the stockholders if it receives (1) the affirmative vote of a majority of the all votes entitled to be cast on the matter and (2) the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes

attributable to outstandingamendment, including shares of our Series A preferred stock. Holderscommon stock issuable upon conversion of our Series A preferred stock, have already approved Proposal 1 at a special meeting of Series A Preferred stockholders held on February 21, 2002. Accordingly, only holders of our common stock will vote on Proposal 1 at“FOR” the annual meeting. proposal.

Abstentions and broker non-votes because they(as defined above) are not affirmativecounted in the tally of votes FOR or AGAINST the proposal and will have the same practicaleffect as votes AGAINST the proposal. A WITHHELD vote has the same effect as an abstention.
What if I return my proxy card but do not provide voting instructions?
If you sign and return your proxy card, but do not include instructions, your proxy will be voted “FOR” the proposal to amend our certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split.
What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?
It means that you have multiple accounts at the transfer agent and/or with brokers. Please sign and return all proxy cards to ensure that all your shares are voted. You may wish to consolidate as many of your transfer agent or brokerage accounts as possible under the same name and address for better customer service.
What is householding?
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements with respect to two or more security holders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those security holders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for securityholders and cost savings for companies.
A number of brokers with account holders who are Internap stockholders will be “householding” our proxy materials. A single proxy statement will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary

instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker or us that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If at any time you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement, please notify your broker, direct your written request to Internap Network Services Corporation, Attention: Investor Relations, Two Union Square, 601 Union Street, Suite 1000, Seattle, Washington 98101, or contact Investor Relations at (206) 441-8800. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy statement at their address and who would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their broker.
What if I change my mind after I return my proxy?
You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the polls close at the Special Meeting. You may do this by:
sending written notice to our Secretary at our principal executive office (Two Union Square, 601 Union Street, Suite 1000, Seattle, Washington 98101);
signing another proxy with a later date; or
voting again at the meeting.
However, please note that attendance at the Special Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.
Will my shares be voted if I do not sign and return my proxy card?
If your shares are held in street name, your brokerage firm may vote your shares under certain circumstances. These circumstances include certain “routine” matters, such as the election of directors. Therefore, if you do not vote your proxy, your brokerage firm may either vote your shares on routine matters, or leave your shares unvoted. When a brokerage firm votes its customers’ unvoted shares on routine matters, these shares are counted for purposes of establishing a quorum to conduct business at the meeting.
A brokerage firm cannot vote customers’ shares on non-routine matters. The proposal to amend our certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split is a non-routine matter. Therefore, if your shares are held in street name and you do not return your proxy, your shares will NOT be voted on the proposed amendments and, accordingly, will have the same effect as a vote against Proposal 1. In connection with Proposal 2,“AGAINST” the nominees for election asamendments. If your broker submits your proxy without your vote (i.e., a broker non-vote), your shares will, however, be counted in determining whether there is a quorum.
Who will count the votes?
Our board of directors who receive the greatest number of votes cast that are present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting willhas selected Investor Voting Services (“IVS”) to be elected as directors. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 2. All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed forelections at the Special Meeting. IVS will ascertain the number of shares outstanding and voting power of the shares, determine the shares represented at the meeting, whodetermine the validity of proxies and the ballots, count all votes and determine the results of voting. IVS will separately tabulate affirmativedeliver a written report after the meeting.
What happens if the Special Meeting is postponed or adjourned?
If the Special Meeting is postponed or adjourned for any reason, including to permit the further solicitation of proxies, at any subsequent reconvening of the Special Meeting all proxies will be voted in the same manner as above, you may revoke your proxy and negative votes.

change your vote at any time before the reconvened Special Meeting.

You may vote by mail. You do this by signing your proxy card and mailing it in the enclosed, prepaid and addressed envelope. If you mark your voting instructions on the Internetproxy card, your shares will be voted as you

instruct. If you return a signed proxy card but do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted “FOR” the proposal to amend the certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split, ranging from a one-for-five reverse stock split to a one-for-thirty reverse stock split, of our common stock.
You may also vote in person at the Special Meeting. Written ballots will be passed out to anyone who wants to vote at the Special Meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name” (through a broker or other nominee), you must request a legal proxy from your stockbroker in order to vote at the Special Meeting.

You may grant a proxy to vote your shares of common stock, including shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of Series A preferred stock, by means of the Internet.

We may reimburse persons representing beneficial owners of common stock for forwarding solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. We have engaged W.F. Doring & Co., Inc., a professional proxy solicitation firm, to solicit proxies on our behalf and anticipate the cost of those services will be approximately $8,000. We may supplement the original solicitation of proxies by mail, telephone, telegram or personal solicitation by our directors, officers or other regular employees.

Proposal 1
APPROVALOF AMENDMENTSTO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATIONTO EFFECTA REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
General
The persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote to approve each of the separate six amendments to our certificate of incorporation effecting a reverse split of our common stock, unless the proxy is marked otherwise. If a stockholder returns a proxy without contrary instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote to approve each of the following amendments to our certificate of incorporation.
Our board of directors has unanimously adopted and declared advisable, each of the following amendments to the Fourth Article of our certificate of incorporation (each, a “Certificate of Amendment” and collectively, “Certificates of Amendment”). Although each of the Certificates of Amendment has been approved by the board of directors and we are seeking your approval for each such amendment set forth below, after receiving the requisite stockholder approval the board of directors may formally adopt not more than one of these amendments.
(a)  Upon this Certificate of Amendment to our certificate of incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Old Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be automatically reclassified as and converted into one fifth (1/5) of a share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “New Common Stock”). Any stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of the Old Common Stock will, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of surrendering the same for exchange, represent the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock as equals the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Old Common Stock represented by such certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time by one fifth (1/5), and the right to receive cash in lieu of a fraction of a share of New Common Stock; or
(b)  Upon this Certificate of Amendment to our certificate of incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), each share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Old Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be automatically reclassified as and converted into one tenth (1/10) of a share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “New Common Stock”). Any stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of the Old Common Stock will, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of surrendering the same for exchange, represent the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock as equals the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Old Common Stock represented by such certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time by one tenth (1/10), and the right to receive cash in lieu of a fraction of a share of New Common Stock; or
(c)  Upon this Certificate of Amendment to our certificate of incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), each share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Old Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be automatically reclassified as and converted into one fifteenth (1/15) of a share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “New Common Stock”). Any stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of the Old Common Stock will, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of surrendering the same for exchange, represent the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock as equals the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Old Common Stock represented by such certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time by one fifteenth (1/15), and the right to receive cash in lieu of a fraction of a share of New Common Stock; or
(d)  Upon this Certificate of Amendment to our certificate of incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), each share of our common stock,

par value $0.001 per share (the “Old Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be automatically reclassified as and converted into one twentieth (1/20) of a share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “New Common Stock”). Any stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of the Old Common Stock will, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of surrendering the same for exchange, represent the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock as equals the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Old Common Stock represented by such certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time by one twentieth (1/20) and the right to receive cash in lieu of a fraction of a share of New Common Stock; or
(e)  Upon this Certificate of Amendment to our certificate of incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), each share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Old Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be automatically reclassified as and converted into one twenty-fifth (1/25) of a share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “New Common Stock”). Any stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of the Old Common Stock will, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of surrendering the same for exchange, represent the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock as equals the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Old Common Stock represented by such certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time by one twenty-fifth (1/25) and the right to receive cash in lieu of a fraction of a share of New Common Stock; or
(f) Upon this Certificate of Amendment to our certificate of incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), each share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Old Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be automatically reclassified as and converted into one thirtieth (1/30) of a share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “New Common Stock”). Any stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of the Old Common Stock will, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of surrendering the same for exchange, represent the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock as equals the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Old Common Stock represented by such certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time by one thirtieth (1/30) and the right to receive cash in lieu of a fraction of a share of New Common Stock.
Approval of each of the Certificates of Amendment requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of our outstanding capital stock entitled to vote on each of the amendments. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our outstanding capital stock (consisting of shares of our common stock and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of Series A preferred stock) entitled to vote on each of the amendments is required for each of the Certificates of Amendment.
Purpose of Reverse Stock Split
Each of the proposed Certificates of Amendment, effectuating a reverse stock split, ranging from between a one-for-five reverse stock split and a one-for-thirty reverse stock split, has been approved and declared advisable by the board of directors to reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of our common stock in order to increase the trading price of such shares on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. The board of directors took this action because our common stock has not met, for more than 30 consecutive trading days since March 12, 2002, the $1.00 minimum bid price required by Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4450, or the “Rule,” and we have since transferred our listing from The Nasdaq National Market to The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. With the exception of the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement, we currently are in compliance with the continued listing requirements on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, which we refer to as the SmallCap Market Continued Listing Requirements, including the $2.5 million stockholders’ equity requirement and the requirement that our “publicly held” shares have a market value of at least $1 million, although we may be unable to continue to meet these or other Nasdaq SmallCap Market requirements in the future. For purposes of the Nasdaq rules, the term “publicly held” only includes shares listed on a national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system and excludes all shares held by our directors, officers, 10% stockholders and their respective affiliates. Therefore, none of our

shares of common stock held by “insiders” and their affiliates, and none of our shares of Series A preferred stock (unless converted into shares of common stock), will count toward the “publicly held” requirement.
Although there can be no assurance, the board of directors believes the implementation of one of the proposed amendments effectuating a reverse stock split, if approved by our stockholders, will result in an increase in the minimum bid price of our common stock to above the $1.00 per share minimum for a period of at least 10 consecutive trading days mandated by The Nasdaq SmallCap Market for continued listing on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, and for the 30 consecutive trading day period required to enable our common stock to be eligible to be transferred back to The Nasdaq National Market. However, although we believe that implementation of a reverse stock split is a satisfactory mechanism to achieve compliance with The Nasdaq SmallCap Market’s maintenance requirements, there can be no assurance that, even if the bid price for our common stock exceeds the $1.00 minimum threshold for the mandated period as a result of a reverse stock split, The Nasdaq SmallCap Market will deem us to be in compliance with the Rule and will not de-list our common stock. In addition, we cannot assure you that (1) even if we satisfied Nasdaq’s minimum bid price maintenance standard, we would be able to meet Nasdaq’s other continued listing criteria or (2) our common stock would not be de-listed by Nasdaq for other reasons.
On April 24, 2002, we were initially notified of our failure to comply with the Rule. Nasdaq granted us 90 calendar days, or until July 23, 2002, to regain compliance with the Rule. Subsequently, we were unable to demonstrate compliance with the Rule on or before July 23, 2002, and we received a formal notice of de-listing from The Nasdaq National Market on July 24, 2002. This automatic de-listing was temporarily stayed during our appeal of the de-listing before the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel, or the “Panel.” At our hearing with the Panel, which occurred on August 29, 2002, we petitioned to maintain our listing on The Nasdaq National Market pending stockholder approval and implementation of one of the proposed amendments effectuating a reverse stock split of our common stock.
On October 2, 2002, the Panel denied our petition for continued inclusion on The Nasdaq National Market, and determined to transfer our common stock listing to The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, effective October 4, 2002. Subsequently, on October 21, 2002, the Panel granted us an additional 180-day grace period, until April 21, 2003, to satisfy the $1.00 bid requirement. The Panel also stated that our listing on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market was pursuant to the terms of the following exception:

PROPOSAL 1
AMEND OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS

        Our board of directors has approved and recommends that the stockholders approve an amendment to our certificate of incorporation (the "Certificate Amendment") and a related amendment to our bylaws (the "Bylaws Amendment") pursuant to which the holdersshares of our Series A preferred stock, would be permittedwe amended the Series A preferred stock designation. This amendment will allow us to take action by written consent.

Introduction

        On November 29, 2001, our board of directors adopted, subject to appropriate stockholder approval,present the Certificate Amendment and the Bylaws Amendment (collectively, the "Amendments") as set forth inAPPENDIX A hereto, and in a special meeting held on February 21, 2002, holdersentire $80.3 million of Series A preferred stock voting as a single class, approvedcomponent of stockholders’ equity in future periods. Therefore, we expect to be able to comply with the Amendments. In general, the Amendments provide that the holders of our Series A preferred stock may take action by written consent. We believe that the proposed Amendments will provide greater flexibility and greater efficiency when soliciting required approvals from holders of our Series A preferred stock.

Summary descriptionterms of the amendmentsPanel’s requirement relating to our stockholders’ equity by November 14, 2002. We also expect to be able to provide the pro forma balance sheet required by Nasdaq with our quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed on or before November 14, 2002.

As an alternative, if we are in compliance with the $35 million market value of listed securities standard for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days prior to November 14, 2002, we must notify the Panel, which will then render a determination with respect to our listing.

        The following isOn or before April 21, 2003, we must demonstrate a summaryclosing bid price of the Amendments. The complete textat least $1.00 per share and immediately thereafter, we must evidence a closing bid price of the Amendments (as well as the textat least $1.00 per share for aminimum of the provisions the Amendments are replacing) is attached asten consecutive trading days.APPENDIX A hereto.

Certificate Amendment

        Article V, Section D of our current certificate of incorporation provides that no action shall be taken by our stockholders (which include both holders

If we fail to comply with any of the foregoing conditions, Nasdaq has notified us that our listing will be terminated immediately. Further, the Panel’s written decision stated that the Panel expressly reserves the right to modify, alter or extend the terms of the foregoing conditions upon a review of our reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2002, which we announced on October 29, 2002.
If the proposed amendments effectuating a reverse stock split are approved by the stockholders, our board of directors may implement one of the proposed amendments effectuating a reverse stock split of our common stock while we are listed on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. If, after the implementation of one of the proposed amendments effectuating a reverse stock split, we have been in compliance with the Rule for 10 consecutive trading days and the conditions specified in the Panel’s letter discussed above, and we otherwise comply with the SmallCap Market Continued Listing Requirements, we expect to be eligible to remain on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. If, after the implementation of one of the proposed amendments effectuating a reverse stock split, we do not comply with the Rule for 10 consecutive trading days and the conditions specified in the Panel’s letter discussed above, we may be de-listed from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market.
Nasdaq has informed us that we may be eligible to transfer back to The Nasdaq National Market, without paying the initial listing fees, if, on or prior to April 21, 2003, we have been in compliance with the Rule for 30 consecutive trading days and we otherwise comply with the National Market Continued Listing Requirements. On the other hand, if, on or before April 21, 2003, the closing price of our common stock has not met or exceeded $1.00 for at least 10 consecutive trading days, we would be subject to de-listing from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. In addition, we will need to maintain compliance with all continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq SmallCap Market (other than the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement), in addition to the conditions specified by the Panel in its letter, in order to continue our grace period on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market. These continued listing requirements require, among other things, that we maintain a minimum stockholders’ equity of $2.5 million. We cannot assure you that we will maintain compliance with these or any other of the continued listing requirements, including the conditions specified in the Panel’s decision on October 2, 2002 discussed above. If we fall out of compliance with the Panel’s conditions or any of the other continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, we may be subject to immediate de-listing. We would expect to be able to appeal any de-listing from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market.
If our common stock is de-listed from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, trading in our common stock, if any, would need to be conducted on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the non-Nasdaq over-the-counter market (also known as the “pink sheet market”). In such event, an investor could find it more difficult to dispose of or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock.
Further, even if our common stock continues to be traded on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market and the trading price were to remain below $5.00 per share, trading in our common stock would remain subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, which require additional disclosures by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a “penny stock.” Generally, a “penny stock” is defined as any equity security that (i) is not traded on any nationally recognized stock exchange or inter-dealer quotation system and (ii) has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by these requirements could discourage broker-dealers from facilitating trades in our common stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of the stock and the ability of investors to trade our common stock.
The board of directors is asking that you approve each of the proposed amendments to our certificate of incorporation effectuating each of the reverse stock splits of all of our issued and outstanding common stock. Notwithstanding the authorization of each of the amendments by the stockholders, the board of directors may

abandon any of the amendments without further action by our stockholders in accordance with Section 242(c) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. A vote in favor of each of the amendments to our certificate of incorporation will be a vote for approval of each of the proposed reverse stock splits, one of which may be implemented and effectuated and any of which may be abandoned at the discretion of the board of directors at any time until the nine month anniversary of the Special Meeting, and for granting authority to the board of directors to effectuate the reverse stock split.
The board of directors has determined that each of the amendments effectuating a reverse stock split is advisable and in your best interests and unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the amendments effectuating a reverse stock split. The board of directors will consider and evaluate from time to time the following factors and criteria to determine which, if any, of the approved amendments to implement: our capitalization (including the number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of Series A preferred stock), the prevailing trading price for our common stock and the volume level thereof, potential devaluation of our market capitalization as a result of a reverse stock split, and the general economic and other related conditions prevailing in our industry and in the marketplace generally. The board of directors will determine, at such time as it deems desirable, which proposed amendment to implement and will provide stockholders and other relevant persons with notice of the record date for the proposed reverse stock split. The board of directors has no immediate plans to implement a reverse stock split, even if we obtain stockholder approval for the proposed amendments.
Effects of Reverse Stock Split
A reverse stock split is a reduction in the number of outstanding shares of a class of a corporation’s capital stock, which may be accomplished by the company, in this case, by reclassifying and converting all our outstanding shares of common stock into a proportionately fewer number of shares of common stock. For example, if our board of directors implements a one-for-ten reverse stock split of our common stock, then a stockholder holding 1000 shares of our common stock before the reverse stock split would receive 100 shares of our common stock after the reverse stock split. This action will also result in a relative increase in the available number of authorized but unissued shares of our common stock. Each stockholder’s proportionate ownership of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock would remain the same, however, except for minor changes which may result from the provisions of each of the amendments effectuating a reverse stock split, as described below. As described below, any fractional shares resulting from a reverse stock split will be rounded down to the nearest whole share and stockholders holding fractional shares of our common stock may be entitled to cash payments in lieu of such fractional shares of our common stock. Common stock issued pursuant to the reverse stock split will remain fully paid and non-assessable.
The primary purpose of the proposed reverse stock split of our common stock is to combine the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock into a smaller number of shares of our common stock so that the shares of our common stock will trade at a higher price per share than their recent trading prices. Although we expect the reverse split will result in an increase in the market price of our common stock, the reverse split may not increase the market price of our common stock in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of our common stock outstanding or result in the permanent increase in the market price, which is dependent upon many factors, including our performance, prospects and other factors. The history of similar reverse stock splits for companies in like circumstances is varied. In addition to increasing the market price of our common stock, a reverse stock split will also affect the presentation of stockholders’ equity on our balance sheet. Because the par value of the shares of our common stock is not changing as a result of the implementation of the reverse stock split, our stated capital, which consists of the par value per share of our common stock multiplied by the aggregate number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, will be reduced proportionately on the effective date of the reverse stock split. Correspondingly, our additional paid-in capital, which consists of the difference between our stated capital and the aggregate amount paid to us upon the issuance of all currently outstanding shares of our common stock, will be increased by a number equal to the decrease in stated capital.

The market price of our common stock will also be based on our performance and other factors, many of which are unrelated to the number of shares of our common stock outstanding. If the reverse stock split is effected and the market price of our common stock declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of our overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of a reverse stock split.
Finally, the reverse stock split, if implemented, will affect the outstanding options and warrants to purchase our common stock and certain other presently outstanding convertible securities with respect to our common stock (including the shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of Series A preferred stock), which contain anti-dilution provisions. All of our option plans with respect to common stock include provisions requiring adjustments to the number of shares of our common stock covered thereby and the number of shares of our common stock subject to and the exercise prices of outstanding options granted under said plans, in the event of a reverse stock split. For example, in a one-for-ten reverse stock split, each of the outstanding options to purchase common stock would thereafter evidence the right to purchase that number of shares of our common stock following the reverse stock split equal to one-tenth of the number of shares of our common stock previously covered by the options (fractional shares will be rounded down and any fractions of a share may be exchanged for a cash payment in some cases, as described in the section “No Fractional Shares”) and the exercise price per share would be ten times the previous exercise price. Further, the number of shares of our common stock reserved for issuance (including the number of shares subject to automatic annual increase and the maximum number of shares that may be subject to options) under our existing stock option plans and employee stock purchase plans will be reduced one-fifth, one-tenth, one-fifteenth, one-twentieth, one-twenty-fifth or one-thirtieth, of the number of shares currently included in such plans. Similarly, in the case of a one-for-ten reverse stock split, pursuant to Section IV(D)(4)(c), each share of our Series A preferred stock would thereafter be convertible at a conversion price of $14.8256 (equal to ten times our current conversion price of $1.48256) and, correspondingly, each share of Series A preferred stock would be convertible into 2.16 shares of common stock (or a cash payment for any fractions of a share) (equal to one-tenth of the number of shares of common stock into which each share of our Series A preferred stock is currently convertible).
The following table illustrates the effects of a 1-for-5 and a 1-for-30 reverse stock split, without giving effect to any adjustments for fractional shares of our common stock, on our authorized and outstanding shares of our capital stock and on certain per share data:

No Fractional Shares
No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with a reverse stock split. If as a result of a reverse stock split, a stockholder of record would hold a fractional share, the stockholder, in lieu of the issuance of a fractional share, may be entitled to receive a payment in cash. The terms of some of our stock option plans do not require us to, and we therefore would not expect to, pay cash to optionholders in lieu of any fraction of a share issuable upon the exercise of an option. The board of directors may elect either (i) to arrange for our transfer agent to aggregate and sell these fractional shares of our common stock on the open market or (ii) to make a cash payment in an amount per share equal to the average of the closing prices per share on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market for the period of ten consecutive trading days ending on (and including) the effective date of a reverse stock split, without interest. The ownership of a fractional interest will not give the holder thereof any voting, dividend or other right except to receive the cash payment therefor. We estimate that the total payments to stockholders to cash out fractional shares of common stock will be between $12,000 and $20,000, depending on, among other things, which of the proposed amendments is effected by the board of directors.
Stockholders should be aware that, under the escheat laws of the various jurisdictions where stockholders reside, where we are domiciled and where the funds will be deposited, sums due for fractional interests that are not timely claimed after the effective time may be required to be paid to the designated agent for each such jurisdiction. Thereafter, stockholders otherwise entitled to receive such funds may have to seek to obtain them directly from the state to which they were paid.
Implementation of Reverse Stock Split
If the stockholders approve the amendments effectuating a reverse stock split, the board of directors may, at any time until the nine month anniversary of the Special Meeting, direct our management to file an amendment to our certificate of incorporation incorporating one of the amendments to our certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware effecting one of the reverse stock splits. Our board of directors reserves the right, in its sole discretion, not to make such filing and not to complete the reverse stock split if it deems it appropriate not to do so. Those Certificates of Amendment not filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware shall be deemed null and void.
Reasons For Reverse Stock Split
The board of directors believes that a reverse stock split is desirable for the following reasons:
(a)If shares of our common stock and holders of our Series A preferred stock) except at an annual meeting or special meeting. The Certificate Amendment would revise Article V, Section D to permit the holders of our Series A preferred stock to take any action that may be taken or that is required by statute to be taken at any annual or special meeting, without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, so long as such action is taken in accordance with the bylaws. The proposed Certificate Amendment would, however, continue to require that any actiontrade below $1.00 per share, our common stock will be de-listed from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market and we will not be eligible to be taken by holderstransfer our listing back to The Nasdaq National Market. De-listing could decrease the marketability, liquidity and transparency of our common stock be taken only at an annual or special meeting.

Bylaws Amendment

        Section 13(which could, in turn, further depress our stock price). The board of our current bylaws providesdirectors believes that no action shall be taken by our stockholders (which includes both holdersthe anticipated increase in the market price per share resulting from a reverse stock split will lift the price of our common stock and holders ofabove the $1.00 minimum bid threshold that currently threatens our Series A preferred stock) except at an annual or special meeting and specifically states that no action shall be taken by our stockholders by written consent.continued listing on The Bylaws Amendment would revise Section 13 to permitNasdaq SmallCap Market.

(b)The anticipated increase in the holders of our Series A preferred stock to take any action that may be taken or that is required by statute to be taken at any

annual or special meeting by written consent. The proposed Bylaws Amendment would, however, continue to require that any action to be taken by holdersper share market price of our common stock be taken at an annual or special meeting and wouldshould also continue to specifically prohibit holdersenhance the acceptability of our common stock by the financial community and the investing public.

(c)A variety of brokerage house policies and practices tend to discourage individual brokers within those firms from taking action by written consent.

        Holdersdealing with lower priced stocks. Some of the policies and practices pertain to the payment of broker’s commissions and to time consuming procedures that function to make the handling of lower priced stock economically unattractive to brokers and therefore difficult for holders of common stock to manage. The expected increase in the per share price of our common stock are requestedmay help alleviate some of these issues.

(d)The structure of trading commissions also tends to approve the Amendments. In a special meeting held on February 21, 2002,have an adverse impact upon holders of Serieslower priced stock because the brokerage commission on a sale of lower priced stock generally represents a

higher percentage of the sales prices than the commission on a relatively higher priced issue, which may discourage trading in lower priced stock. A preferredreverse stock voting assplit could result in a single class,price level for our common stock that may reduce, to some extent, the effect of these policies and practices of brokerage firms and diminish the adverse impact of trading commissions on the market for our common stock.

(e)The increase in the portion of our authorized shares of common stock that would be unissued after the reverse stock split is effectuated could be used for any proper corporate purpose approved by the Amendments. Also,board of directors. The increased number of authorized but unissued shares of our common stock will provide us with additional flexibility to issue additional shares of our common stock in connection with future financings or other transactions. However, the board of directors has considereddoes not currently have any plans to utilize the Amendmentsincrease in the number of the authorized but unissued shares of our common stock that would result from approval and has unanimously concluded that the potential benefitsimplementation of the proposed changesreverse stock split.
Reasons Against Reverse Stock Split
Even though the board of directors believes that the potential advantages of a reverse stock split outweigh any disadvantages that might result, the following are the possible disadvantages of a reverse stock split:
(a)Despite the potential increase in liquidity discussed above, if we file one of the amendments, the reduced number of shares of our common stock resulting from a reverse stock split could adversely affect the liquidity of our common stock.
(b)A reverse stock split could result in a significant devaluation of our market capitalization and our share price, on an actual or an as-adjusted basis, based on the experience of other companies that have effected reverse stock splits in an effort to maintain their Nasdaq listings.
(c)A reverse stock split may leave certain stockholders with one or more “odd lots,” which are stock holdings in amounts of less than 100 shares of our common stock. These odd lots may be more difficult to sell than shares of our common stock in even multiples of 100. Additionally, any potential disadvantages. Ourreduction in brokerage commissions resulting from the reverse stock split, as discussed above, may be offset, in whole or in part, by increased brokerage commissions required to be paid by stockholders selling odd lots created by the reverse stock split. Similarly, a reverse stock split could reduce our number of “round lot” stockholders, which are holders of 100 or more shares of our common stock. The continued inclusion requirements of The Nasdaq National Market and The Nasdaq SmallCap Market require us to maintain a specified minimum number of round lot stockholders.
(d)Because a reverse stock split would result in an increased number of authorized but unissued shares of our common stock, it may be construed as having an anti-takeover effect, although neither the board of directors believesnor our management views this proposal in that perspective. However, the Amendments are in our best interests and that of our stockholders and recommends a vote in favor of the Amendments.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE IN FAVOR
OF AMENDING THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF
INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS AS DISCUSSED IN THIS PROPOSAL

PROPOSAL 2
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

        Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that our board of directors, shall be divided into three classes, each class consisting, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the totalsubject to its fiduciary duties and applicable law, could use this increased number of authorized but unissued shares of our common stock to frustrate persons seeking to take over or otherwise gain control of us by, for example, privately placing shares of our common stock with purchasers who might side with the board of directors which accordingin opposing a hostile takeover bid. Shares of our common stock could also be issued to a holder that would thereafter have sufficient voting power to assure that any proposal to amend or repeal our by-laws or certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation may be upwould not receive the requisite vote. Such uses of our common stock could render more difficult, or discourage, an attempt to seven directors, with each class having a three-year term. Vacancies onacquire control of us if such transaction were opposed by the board of directors maydirectors.

(e)Further, subject to Nasdaq rules on stock issuances, the increased number of authorized but unissued shares of our common stock could be filled by persons elected by a majority of the remaining directors. A director electedissued by the board of directors to fill a vacancy (including a vacancy created by an increasewithout further stockholder approval, which could result in the number of directors) shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the vacancy occurred and until such director's successor is elected and qualified.

        Our board of directors is presently composed of six members with one vacancy in Class I. There are three directors currently in the class whose terms of office expire in 2002, which is designated as Class III. These directors will stand as nominees for election to Class III at the annual meeting. The nominees for election to Class III are current directors who were previously elected by the stockholders. If elected at the annual meeting, each nominee would serve until the 2005 annual meeting and until his successor is elected and has been qualified, or until such director's earlier death, resignation or removal.

        Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast that are present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the meeting. Shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, FOR the election of the nominees named below. Should these nominees be unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, these shares will be voted for the election of substitute nominees proposed by management. The persons nominated for election to Class III have agreed to serve if elected, and management has no reason to believe they will be unable to serve.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF
CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

        The following table sets forth as of January 31, 2002 (except as otherwise noted) information regarding the beneficial ownershipholders of our common stock by (i) each person known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock; (ii) each of our directors; (iii) each of our executive officers for whom compensation is reported in this proxy statement;stock.

Exchange of Stock Certificates
If the Certificates of Amendment are approved by our stockholders and our board of directors, in its sole discretion, elects to proceed with a reverse stock split, we will instruct our transfer agent to act as our exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) and to act for holders of common stock in implementing the exchange of their certificates.
Commencing on the effective date of a reverse stock split, stockholders will be notified and requested to surrender their certificates representing shares of our common stock to the Exchange Agent in exchange for certificates representing post-reverse split common stock. One share of new common stock will be issued in exchange for the number of presently issued and outstanding pre-split shares of our common stock determined by the board of directors between the range of five and thirty approved by the stockholders. Beginning on the effective date of a reverse stock split, each certificate representing shares of our common stock will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of shares of our post-reverse split common stock. Holders of securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of our common stock will not be requested to exchange their convertible securities in connection with a reverse stock split. STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY CERTIFICATE(S) UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.
Even if the stockholders approve the proposed amendments, we reserve the right not to effect a reverse stock split if in the board of directors’ opinion it would not be in our best interests or in the best interests of our stockholders to effect such reverse stock split.
Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following summary of the federal income tax consequences of a reverse stock split is based on current law, including the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and is for general information only. The tax treatment of a stockholder may vary depending upon the particular facts and circumstances of such stockholder, and the discussion below may not address all the tax consequences for a particular stockholder. For example, foreign, state and local tax consequences are not discussed below. Accordingly, each stockholder should consult his or her tax advisor to determine the particular tax consequences to him or her of a reverse stock split, including the application and effect of federal, state, local and/or foreign income tax and other laws.
Generally, a reverse stock split will not result in the recognition of gain or loss for federal income tax purposes (except with respect to any cash received in lieu of a fractional share as described below). The adjusted basis of the new shares of our common stock will be the same as the adjusted basis of our common stock exchanged for such new shares of our common stock. The holding period of the new, post-split shares of our common stock resulting from implementation of the reverse stock split will include the stockholder’s respective holding periods for the pre-split shares of our common stock exchanged for the new shares of our common stock.
A stockholder who receives cash in lieu of a fractional share will be treated as if the Company has issued a fractional share to the stockholder and then immediately redeemed the fractional share for cash. Such stockholder should generally recognize gain or loss, as the case may be, measured by the difference between the amount of cash received and the basis of such stockholder’s pre-split shares of our common stock corresponding to the fractional share, had such fractional share actually been issued. Such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss (if such stock was held as a capital asset), and any such capital gain or loss will generally be long-term capital gain or loss to the extent such stockholder’s holding period exceeds 12 months.
No Dissenters’ Rights
The holders of shares of our common stock have no dissenters’ rights of appraisal under Delaware law, our certificate of incorporation or our by-laws with respect to the proposed amendments to our certificate of incorporation effectuating a reverse stock split.

Required Vote
In order to be adopted, the Certificates of Amendment contained in this proposal must receive the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote on the proposal, including the shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of Series A preferred stock.
Recommendation of the Board of Directors
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS VOTING “FOR” THE AMENDMENTS TO THE AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AUTHORIZING THE BOARD, IN ITS DISCRETION, TO EFFECT A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF OUR OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK.

SECURITY OWNERSHIPOF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERSAND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth as of September 30, 2002 (except as otherwise noted) information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock by (i) each person known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock (assuming conversion of all shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of our common stock); (ii) each of our directors; (iii) our current and former executive officers for whom we are required to provide information; and (iv) all of our directors and executive officers as a group. Except as otherwise noted, we believe that the beneficial owners of our common stock listed below, based on information furnished by such owners, have sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares of our common stock.

Employment agreements and change in control

        Effective July 25, 2001, Mr. Eidenberg began serving as our Chief Executive Officer. We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Eidenberg that sets forth Mr. Eidenberg's compensation level. Under this agreement, Mr. Eidenberg serves at will and his employment may be terminated by us or by Mr. Eidenberg at anytime, with or without cause and with or without notice. Mr. Eidenberg's employment agreement contains a one-year noncompetition covenant and an option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at fair market value on the date of grant, 250,000 of which were vested on the date of grant, 250,000 of which vested on January 25, 2002 and 500,000 of which vest on July 25, 2003 subject to acceleration based on meeting certain corporate objectives or in the event of a change in control. Mr. Eidenberg will have the option to pay up to $1,000,000 for the exercise price of these options with a full recourse note.

        Also effective July 25, 2001, Mr. Naughtin ceased serving as our Chief Executive Officer. Prior to that date we had in place an employment letter agreement with Mr. Naughtin, which set forth his initial compensation level. Under this letter agreement Mr. Naughtin served at-will and his employment may have been terminated by us or by him at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice. Mr. Naughtin's employment agreement contained a noncompetition covenant that is effective for one year after termination of employment. On July 25, 2001, we entered into a replacement employment agreement with Mr. Naughtin in which we agreed to continue to pay Mr. Naughtin based on an annualized base salary of $297,500 until January 25, 2002 and to pay 50% of such annualized based salary thereafter until July 25, 2002, at which time he will cease to be an employee.

        On June 12, 2001, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Vent, which set forth Mr. Vent's compensation level and contained a one-year noncompetition covenant. Under this agreement Mr. Vent served at-will and his employment was terminable by us or by Mr. Vent at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice. Under Mr. Vent's employment agreement, if Mr. Vent was terminated without cause or resigned for good reason within 12 months after the execution of the agreement, he would receive a severance payment equal to 12 months salary as well as any accrued bonuses. Mr. Vent's employment agreement has since been cancelled and replaced by a new agreement, dated December 23, 2001. Under this new agreement, Mr. Vent immediately ceased to be an executive officer and we agreed to continue to pay Mr. Vent based on an annualized base salary of $348,800 until April 7, 2002. Starting April 8, 2002, Mr. Vent's annualized base salary will be reduced to $174,400 until July 7, 2002, at which time he will cease to be an employee.

        During 2001 we had in place an employment letter agreement with Paul E. McBride, which set forth his initial compensation level. Under this letter agreement Mr. McBride served at-will and his employment may have been terminated by us or by him at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice. Mr. McBride's employment agreement contained a noncompetition covenant that is effective for one year after termination of employment. Effective as of January 1, 2002, Mr. McBride is no longer an employee.

        We have entered into employment agreements with each of Messrs. Benton, Gionesi and Scanlon. Each employment agreement sets forth the officer's compensation level. Under each agreement the officer serves at-will and employment may be terminated by us or by the officer at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice. Each agreement contains a one year noncompetition covenant. If any of these officers is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason within 13 months after a change in control, such officer would receive a severance payment equal to 12 months salary. We entered into a similar employment agreement with Mr. Norman, which

16



agreement has since been cancelled and replaced by a new agreement, dated December 12, 2001. Under this new agreement, Mr. Norman immediately ceased to be an executive officer and became a part-time employee receiving a base salary of $112,500. Mr. Norman will remain an employee under the terms of the separation agreement until July 12, 2002, at which time he will cease to be an employee.

        Our 1999 Equity Incentive Plan, under which our executives are granted stock options, provides that in the event the executive officers are terminated without cause or resign for good reason within 13 months after a change in control, all of the options held by such officers will vest in full and will become fully exercisable.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

        The compensation committee of the board of directors consists of Kevin L. Ober and Robert D. Shurtleff, Jr., each of whom is a nonemployee director. The compensation committee is responsible for establishing and administering compensation policies and programs for Internap's executive officers. This report reflects Internap's compensation philosophy.

Executive officer compensation

        Internap's executive compensation program has been designed to (i) ensure that compensation provided to executive officers is closely aligned with its business objectives and financial performance; (ii) enable Internap to attract and retain those officers who contribute to its long-term success; and (iii) maximize stockholder value.

        Executive compensation generally consists of three components (i) base salary; (ii) annual cash bonus; and (iii) long-term incentive awards. The Chief Executive Officer annually recommends executive officer compensation levels to the compensation committee. The compensation committee makes the final determination of executive compensation levels but relies on the Chief Executive Officer's annual recommendations because it believes the Chief Executive Officer is the most qualified person to make assessments about individual performance.

        The compensation committee annually reviews and establishes each executive officer's compensation package by considering (i) the extent to which specified corporate objectives for the preceding year were attained; (ii) the experience and contribution levels of the individual executive officer; and (iii) to a lesser extent, the salary and bonus levels of executive officers in similar positions in companies in the same or related industries as Internap.

        The primary corporate objectives set by the compensation committee for the 2001 fiscal year were the achievement of specific revenue and cash flow goals. Neither of these goals was accomplished. At the start of the third quarter, the compensation committee set an additional corporate objective of completing a significant financing event, which was met with the closing of the company's Series A preferred stock financing on September 14, 2001. An additional factor contributing to the determination of executive compensation in 2001 was the desire by the board of directors and management to reduce costs company wide. Taking all of the foregoing considerations into account, the compensation committee determined that, effective May 1, 2001, salaries would be decreased from between 5% to 15% for all executive officers with the exception of one officer who was then receiving the least amount of compensation of the company's executives.

        The compensation committee may award cash bonuses for executive officers (other than those who receive commissions) on an annual basis. These awards are intended to provide a direct link between management compensation and the achievement of corporate and individual objectives. The maximum potential level of bonus is 50% of the executive officer's base salary as of the end of the preceding

17



fiscal year. At the beginning of each year, Internap sets certain corporate objectives, including financial performance goals, and at the end of the year assesses the performance by executives towards the achievement of these goals to determine the level of bonus payable, if any. The primary corporate objectives set by the compensation committee for use in determining whether bonuses would be paid during the 2001 fiscal year were the same objectives used for determining the 2001 fiscal year salary levels.

        Taking into account the actual performance by the executive management team towards meeting the 2001 fiscal year corporate objectives as well as the desire by the board of directors and management to reduce costs company wide, the compensation committee determined that no bonuses would be paid for executive performance during the 2001 fiscal year. The compensation committee did, however, approve the payment to executives during the 2001 fiscal year of bonuses earned during the 2000 fiscal year based on successful completion of the primary corporate objectives for 2000. Bonuses paid with respect to 2000 fiscal year performance represented 80% of full bonus potential for such year. As disclosed in Internap's proxy statement for the 2001 annual meeting, the primary corporate objectives set by the compensation committee for the 2000 fiscal year were, in order of importance, (i) revenue growth goals; (ii) service point deployment goals; (iii) successful liquidity event, including an initial public offering; (iv) customer growth goals; and (v) employee and management headcount growth goals. To conserve cash in the short term, payment of bonuses for 2000 fiscal year performance was deferred until after completion of the company's Series A financing in September 2001.

        The compensation committee also grants stock options to executive officers to provide long-term incentives that are aligned with the creation of increased stockholder value over time. Options typically are granted at fair market value at the date of grant, have a ten year term and generally vest 25% on the first anniversary of vesting commencement date and in equal 36 monthly installments thereafter. In July 2001, however, each executive officer received a stock option grant with a ten year term designed to provide additional incentive toward the achievement of the corporate objectives. These options began vesting on the date of grant in equal 48 monthly installments, subject to acceleration of (a) 50% of the total original grant, whether or not already vested, upon the first quarter reported to have positive net cash provided by operating activities, and (b) 100% of the total original grant, whether or not already vested, upon the first quarter reported to have positive net income from operations. In addition, in November 2001, each executive officer received a retention stock option grant with a ten year term that began vesting on the date of grant in equal 24 monthly installments.

        Most stock option grants to executive officers occur in conjunction with the executive officer's acceptance of employment with Internap. The compensation committee, however, reviews stock option levels for all executive officers throughout each fiscal year in light of long-term strategic and performance objectives, each executive officer's current and anticipated contributions to Internap's future performance and the value of such executive's current stock option package, and is able to adjust these levels. When determining the number of stock options to be awarded to an executive officer, the compensation committee considers the executive officer's current contribution to Internap's performance, the executive officer's past option awards and their current value, the executive officer's anticipated contribution in meeting Internap's long-term strategic performance goals and comparisons to formal and informal surveys of executive stock option grants made by other Internet infrastructure companies. In 2001, the compensation committee granted options to purchase an aggregate of 2,674,589 shares to executive officers, excluding the Chief Executive Officer, at an exercise price equal to fair market value on the date of grant.

Compensation of Internap's Chief Executive Officer

        The compensation committee reviews the Chief Executive Officer's compensation annually using the same criteria and policies as are employed for other executive officers. In July 2001, Mr. Naughtin resigned as Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Eidenberg began serving as Internap's Chief Executive

18



Officer. Mr. Eidenberg's salary was determined using the same criteria and policies as are employed for other executive officers. In addition, upon commencement of his employment, Mr. Eidenberg was granted a stock option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock with a ten year term, 250,000 of which were vested on the date of grant, 250,000 of which vested on January 25, 2002 and 500,000 of which vest on July 25, 2003 subject to acceleration based on meeting certain corporate objectives or in the event of a change in control. In addition, in November 2001, Mr. Eidenberg was granted a retention stock option to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock with a ten year term that began vesting on the date of grant in equal 24 monthly installments.

        Compensation payments in excess of $1 million to the Chief Executive Officer or the other five most highly compensated executive officers are subject to a limitation on deductibility for Internap under section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Certain performance-based compensation is not subject to the limitation on deductibility. The compensation committee does not expect cash compensation in 2000 to Internap's Chief Executive Officer or any other executive officer to be in excess of $1 million. Internap intends to maintain qualification of its Amended and Restated 1998 Stock Options/Stock Issuance Plan, Amended 1999 Equity Incentive Plan, 2000 Non-Officer Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Incentive Plan for Non-Officers, Switchsoft Systems, Inc. Founders 1996 Stock Option Plan and Switchsoft Systems, Inc. 1997 Stock Option Plan for the performance-based exception to the $1 million limitation on deductibility of compensation payments.

        The compensation committee believes its executive compensation philosophy serves Internap's interests and the interests of its stockholders.

Compensation committee interlocks and insider participation

        None of our executive officers serves as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of our board of directors or compensation committee.

Change of control arrangements in equity incentive plans

Founders 1996 Stock Option Plan and Switchsoft Systems, Inc. 1997 Stock Option Plan, if a change in control occurs, including the sale of substantially all of our assets or a merger with or into another corporation, any outstanding options held by persons then performing services for us as an employee, director or consultant:

    may either be assumed or continued;

    may be substituted with an equivalent award by the surviving entity; or

    will, if the options are not assumed, continued or substituted, become fully exercisable, including shares as to which they would not otherwise be exercisable, and restricted stock will become fully vested.

        Options also become fully exercisable upon the occurrence of a securities acquisition representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of our securities, or if a participant's service is terminated by a surviving corporation for any reason other than "for cause" within 13 months following a change in control.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

        The audit committee of the board of directors consists of William J. Harding, Fredric W. Harman and Kevin L. Ober, each of whom is an independent director. The audit committee has reviewed and discussed with management the consolidated audited financial statements of Internap as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. The audit committee also has discussed with our independent accountants the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61,Communication with Audit Committees, as amended. Additionally, the audit committee has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountants required by Independence Standard No. 1,Independence Discussions with Audit Committees, as amended, and has discussed with the independent accountants their independence.

        Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the audit committee recommended to the board of directors that the financial statements referred to above be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Independent accountants

Selection of independent accountants

        Our board of directors has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent accountants for each of the fiscal years ending December 31, 2001 and 2002, and at our 2001 annual meeting our stockholders ratified this selection for each of those fiscal years. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has audited our financial statements since our inception in 1996. Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP are expected to be present at the annual meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions. Even though our board of directors has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent accountants and this selection has been ratified, the audit committee and the board of directors in their discretion may direct the appointment of different independent accountants at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in our best interests and in the best interests of our shareholders.

Audit fees

        During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, the aggregate fees billed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for the audit of our financial statements for such fiscal year and for the reviews of our interim financial statements were $175,623.

Financial information systems design and implementation fees

        During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, no fees were billed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for information technology consulting.

All other fees

        During fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, the aggregate fees billed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for professional services other than audit fees were $529,125. Substantially all of these fees were for services traditionally provided by accountants, such as review of tax returns, consultation on tax accounting matters and other special purpose audits.

        The audit committee has determined the rendering of all other non-audit services by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is compatible with maintaining the independence of our independent accountants.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND TRANSACTIONS

        On July 20, 2001, private equity funds affiliated with Eugene Eidenberg, William Harding and Fredric Harman, current members of our board of directors, entered into a Unit Purchase Agreement pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell, and these funds in addition to other purchasers agreed to buy, approximately $101 million aggregate purchase price of units consisting of our Series A preferred stock warrants to purchase common stock. The $101 million unit financing closed on September 14, 2001. Each share of Series A preferred stock is convertible into approximately 21.6 shares of common stock.

        Effective July 25, 2001, Mr. Eidenberg began serving as our Chief Executive Officer. We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Eidenberg that sets forth Mr. Eidenberg's compensation level. Under this agreement, Mr. Eidenberg serves at will and his employment may be terminated by us or by Mr. Eidenberg at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice. Mr. Eidenberg's employment agreement contains a one-year noncompetition covenant and an option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at fair market value on the date of grant, 250,000 of which were vested on the date of grant, 250,000 of which vested on January 25, 2002 and 500,000 of which vest on July 25, 2003, subject to acceleration based on meeting certain corporate objectives or in the event of a change in control as further described in the employment agreement. Mr. Eidenberg will have the option to pay up to $1,000,000 for the exercise price of these options with a full recourse note.

        We have entered into employment agreements with several of our key officers. Each agreement sets forth the officer's compensation level. Under each agreement the officer serves at-will and employment may be terminated by us or by the officer at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice. Each agreement contains a one year noncompetition covenant. If any of these officers are terminated without cause or resign for good reason within 13 months after a change in control, such officer would receive a severance payment equal to 12 months salary.

        We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers for the indemnification of and advancement of expenses to such persons to the fullest extent permitted by law. We also intend to enter into these agreements with our future directors and executive officers.

        We believe that the foregoing transactions were in our best interest and were made on terms no less favorable than could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties. All future transactions between Internap and any of our officers, directors or principal stockholders will be approved by a majority of the independent and disinterested members of the board of directors, will be on terms no less favorable than could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties and will be in connection with bona fide business purposes.


SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

        Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of Internap. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

        Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders were complied with except that one report, covering one transaction, was filed late by Mr. Gionesi.

OTHER BUSINESS

        The board of directors does not intend to present any business at the annual meeting other than as set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and has no present knowledge that any others intend to present business at the meeting. If, however, other matters requiring the vote of the stockholders properly come before the annual meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the persons named in the accompanying form of proxy intend to exercise their discretionary authority to vote the proxies held by them in accordance with their judgment as to such matters.
