Agreement to Terms of Election
1. If I cease to remain employed by Insight after I tender my Eligible Options but before Insight accepts those options for amendment, my Eligible Options will not be amended, and I will not become entitled to any Cash Payment.
2. Until the Expiration Date, I will have the right to change my election with respect to my Eligible Options. However, after that date I will have no further right to change my election with respect to my Eligible Options, unless Insight does not accept my tendered Eligible Options before 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on December 20, 2007, which is the 20th business day after commencement of the Offer. I may then revoke my elections with respect to my tendered Eligible Options at any time before Insight’s acceptance of those options for amendment pursuant to the Tender Offer.
3. The tender of my Eligible Options pursuant to the procedures described in Section 4 of the Offer to Amend document and the instructions to the Election Form will constitute my acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer and of the Amendment Agreement. Insight’s acceptance of my tendered Eligible Options for amendment pursuant to the Offer to Amend will constitute a binding agreement between Insight and me upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer to Amend and subject to the Terms of the Amendment Agreement.
4. I am the registered holder of the Eligible Options tendered hereby, and my name and any other information appearing on the cover page of this Election Form are true and correct.
5. I am not required to tender my Eligible Options pursuant to the Offer to Amend. However, if I do not tender such options or if those options are not otherwise amended pursuant to the Offer, then I must take other action on my own with respect to those options in order to bring those options into compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and any other similar state tax laws to avoid unfavorable tax consequences.
6. I understand that Insight cannot give me legal, tax or investment advice with respect to the Offer to Amend, and Insight has advised me to consult with my own legal, tax and investment advisor as to the consequences of participating or not participating in the Offer.
7. Under certain circumstances set forth in the Offer to Amend, Insight may terminate or amend the Offer and postpone its acceptance and amendment of the tendered Eligible Options. In the event the Eligible Options tendered herewith are not accepted for amendment, those options will be returned to me promptly following the expiration or termination of the Offer.
8. I understand that neither Insight nor Insight’s Board of Directors is making any recommendation as to whether I should tender or refrain from tendering my Eligible Options for amendment, and that I must make my own decision whether to tender my Eligible Options. I understand that the Amended Options resulting from the amendment of my tendered Eligible Options may decline in value and may be “out of the money” when I decide to exercise those options. I further understand that past and current market prices of Insight common stock may provide little or no basis for predicting what the market price of Insight common stock will be when Insight amends my tendered Eligible Options or at any other time in the future.
