Exhibit 99.2
WARRANT HOLDERS AGREEMENT
     WARRANT HOLDERS AGREEMENT, dated as of February 1, 2011 (this “Agreement”), by and among NaviSite, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and the warrant holders of the Company whose names are set forth on the signature pages to this Agreement (each a “Warrant Holder” and collectively, the “Warrant Holders”).
RECITALS
     WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Time Warner Cable Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Avatar Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and the Company are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as the same may be amended or modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.
     WHEREAS, each of the Warrant Holders entered into the Warrant Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and the Warrant Holders, dated April 11, 2006 (the “2006 Warrant Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company issued Warrant No. 1 and Warrant No. 2 to the Warrant Holders which provided that the Warrant Holders may exercise such warrants for an aggregate of 3,514,933 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per shares, of the Company (the “Common Stock”).
     WHEREAS, since April 11, 2006, the Warrant Holders have partially exercised Warrant No. 1 and Warrant No. 2 and, upon such partial exercises, the Company cancelled Warrant No. 1 and Warrant No. 2 and issued new warrants of like tenor and date for the balance of the shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder to the Warrant Holders; therefore, as of the date hereof, the Company has issued Warrant No. 1D and Warrant No. 2D, each dated as of April 11, 2006 (the “2006 Warrants”), to the Warrant Holders which provide that the Warrant Holders may exercise such 2006 Warrants for an aggregate of 784,928 shares of Common Stock.
     WHEREAS, each of the Warrant Holders entered into the Warrant Purchase Agreement between the Company and the Warrant Holders, dated February 13, 2007 (the “2007 Warrant Purchase Agreement” and together with the 2006 Warrant Purchase Agreement, the “Warrant Purchase Agreements”), pursuant to which the Company issued Warrant B-1 and Warrant B-2, each dated February 13, 2007 (the “2007 Warrants” and collectively with the 2006 Warrants, the “Company Warrants”) to the Warrant Holders which provide that the Warrant Holders may exercise such Company Warrants for an aggregate of 415,203 shares of Common Stock.
     WHEREAS, no portion of the 2007 Warrants has been exercised as of the date hereof and, therefore, as of the date hereof, they remain exercisable for 415,203 shares of Common Stock.

     WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement to entering into the Merger Agreement, each of the Company and Parent has requested that the Warrant Holders agree, and the Warrant Holders have agreed, to enter into this Agreement which sets forth the agreements of the Company and the Warrant Holders with respect to the treatment of Company Warrants in connection with the Merger.
     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Each of the Company and each Warrant Holder agrees to execute such documents as are reasonably necessary in connection with such conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall require such Warrant

Holder or any of its Affiliates to exercise any Company Warrants owned by such Warrant Holder or its Affiliates prior to the Effective Time.
     2.3 Waiver of Warrant Purchase Agreements and Company Warrants.
     Each Warrant Holder hereby agrees and acknowledges that the provisions of Section 4.6 of each Warrant Holder’s Company Warrants shall not apply to the Merger Agreement or the Merger. Each Warrant Holder further agrees and acknowledges that neither the Merger Agreement nor the Merger shall be deemed a violation of Section 5.1 (No Impairment) of such Warrant Holder’s Company Warrants. Each Warrant Holder hereby waives any notice that may otherwise be required in connection with the Merger Agreement or the Merger pursuant to Section 7.1 of such Warrant Holder’s Company Warrants. Each Warrant Holder hereby waives any other provision of the Warrant Purchase Agreements or such Warrant Holder’s Company Warrants to the extent the Warrant Purchase Agreements or the Company Warrants are inconsistent with the provisions hereof.
     2.4 Common Stock Merger Consideration Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, this Agreement, including without limitation Section 2.2 hereof, shall be binding upon the Warrant Holders only to the extent that the Common Stock Merger Consideration is equal to or greater than $4.50.

To the extent there are any inconsistencies between this Agreement and any other agreement relating to the Company Warrants between the Company and any Warrant Holder, the terms of this Agreement shall control.
     5.9 No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

     5.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement, and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances, shall not be affected thereby. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of that provision to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted for that provision in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of the invalid or

8


 

unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of that provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of that provision, or the application of that provision, in any other jurisdiction. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
     5.11 Rules of Construction.

Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.
     5.13 Specific Performance. The parties to this Agreement agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without bond or other security being required, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
     5.14 Expenses. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Warrant Holders for the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5.14 shall apply irrespective of the termination of this Agreement.
     5.15 Warrant Holder Capacity. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein by each Warrant Holder are made solely with respect to such Warrant Holder and its Company Warrants. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by any Warrant Holder pursuant to this Agreement, shall be deemed to constitute the parties as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the parties are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to the obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
