application for the Plan's administration. The Plan Administrator's
interpretation of the Plan and its rules and regulations, and all actions taken

     Any shares of Common Stock that have been made subject to an Option that
cease to be subject to the Option (other than by reason of exercise or payment

including, without limitation, in connection with the cancellation of an Option
and the grant of a replacement Option, shall again be available for issuance in

     The Plan Administrator shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, to
determine the Options to be made under the Plan.

6.2  Acquired Company Options

     Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Plan
Administrator may grant Options under the Plan in substitution for awards issued
under other plans, or assume under the Plan awards issued under other plans, if
the other plans are or were plans of other entities ("Acquired Entities") (or
the parent of the Acquired Entity) and the new Option is substituted, or

---------------
/1/ On January 9, 2001, the Board of Directors approved the amendment of this
Section 4.1 to provide for an increase in the number of shares that shall be
available for issuance under the Plan from 3,000,000 to 8,000,000.

                                       5
<PAGE>

the old award is assumed, by reason of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of
property or of stock, reorganization or liquidation (the "Acquisition
Transaction"). In the event that a written agreement pursuant to which the
Acquisition Transaction is completed is approved by the Board and said agreement
sets forth the terms and conditions of the substitution for or assumption of
outstanding awards of the Acquired Entity, said terms and conditions shall be
deemed to be the action of the Plan Administrator without any further action by
the Plan Administrator, except as may be required for compliance with Rule 16b-3
under the Exchange Act, and the persons holding such Options shall be deemed to
be Participants and Holders.

6.3  Option Exercise Price

     The exercise price for shares purchased under an Option shall be as
determined by the Plan Administrator.

6.4  Term of Options

     The term of each Option shall be as established by the Plan Administrator
or, if not so established, shall be 10 years from the Grant Date.

6.5  Exercise of Options

     The Plan Administrator shall establish and set forth in each instrument
that evidences an Option the time at which or the installments in which the
Option shall become exercisable, which provisions may be waived or modified by
the Plan Administrator at any time. If not so established in the instrument
evidencing the Option, the Option will become exercisable according to the
following schedule, which may be waived or modified by the Plan Administrator at
any time:

   Service With the Company or Its Subsidiaries       Percent of Total Option
                From the Grant Date                     That Is Exercisable
---------------------------------------------------   -----------------------

                  After 12 months                                25%

          Each additional month thereafter                     2.0833%

                   After 4 years                                 100%
</TABLE>

     To the extent that the right to purchase shares has accrued thereunder, an
Option may be exercised from time to time by written notice to the Company, in
accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator, setting forth
the number of shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised and
accompanied by payment in full as described in Section 6.6 of the Plan. The Plan
Administrator may determine that an Option may not be exercised as to less than
a reasonable number of shares at any one time.

6.6  Payment of Exercise Price

     The exercise price for shares purchased under an Option shall be paid in
full to the Company by delivery of consideration equal to the product of the
Option exercise price and the number of shares purchased. Such consideration
must be paid in cash or by check or, unless the

                                       6
<PAGE>

Plan Administrator in its sole discretion determines otherwise, either at the
time the Option is granted or at any time before it is exercised, in any
combination of

          (a)  cash or check;

          (b)  tendering (either actually or, if and so long as the Common Stock
is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, by attestation)
shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant for at least six months
(or any shorter period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company's earnings for
financial reporting purposes) having a Fair Market Value on the day prior to the
exercise date equal to the aggregate Option exercise price;

          (c)  if and so long as the Common Stock is registered under Section
12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, delivery of a properly executed exercise
notice, together with irrevocable instructions, to (i) a brokerage firm
designated by the Company to deliver promptly to the Company the aggregate
amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the Option exercise price and any
withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the exercise and
(ii) the Company to deliver the certificates for such purchased shares directly
to such brokerage firm, all in accordance with the regulations of the Federal
Reserve Board; or

          (d)  such other consideration as the Plan Administrator may permit.

     In addition, to assist a Participant (including a Participant who is an
officer or a director of the Company) in acquiring shares of Common Stock
pursuant to an Option granted under the Plan, the Plan Administrator, in its
sole discretion, may authorize, either at the Grant Date or at any time before
the acquisition of Common Stock pursuant to the Option, (i) the payment by a
Participant of a full-recourse promissory note, (ii) the payment by the
Participant of the purchase price, if any, of the Common Stock in installments,
or (iii) the guarantee by the Company of a loan obtained by the Participant from
a third party. Subject to the foregoing, the Plan Administrator shall in its
sole discretion specify the terms of any loans, installment payments or loan
guarantees, including the interest rate and terms of and security for repayment.

6.7  Post-Termination Exercises

     The Plan Administrator shall establish and set forth in each instrument
that evidences an Option whether the Option will continue to be exercisable, and
the terms and conditions of such exercise, if a Holder ceases to be employed by,
or to provide services to, the Company or its Subsidiaries, which provisions may
be waived or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time. If not so
established in the instrument evidencing the Option, the Option will be
exercisable according to the following terms and conditions, which may be waived
or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time. In case of termination of the
Holder's employment or services other than by reason of death or Cause, the
Option shall be exercisable, to the extent of the number of shares purchasable
by the Holder at the date of such termination, only: (a) within one year if the
termination of the Holder's employment or services are coincident with
Retirement, Early Retirement at the Company's request or Disability or (b)
within three months after the date the Holder ceases to be an employee,
director, officer, consultant, agent, advisor or independent contractor of the
Company or a Subsidiary if termination of the Holder's employment or services is
for any reason other than Retirement, Early Retirement at the Company's request
or Disability, but in no event later than the remaining term of the Option. Any
Option exercisable at the time of the Holder's death may be

                                       7
<PAGE>

exercised, to the extent of the number of shares purchasable by the Holder at
the date of the Holder's death, by the personal representative of the Holder's
estate entitled thereto at any time or from time to time within one year after
the date of death, but in no event later than the remaining term of the Option.
In case of termination of the Holder's employment or services for Cause, the
Option shall automatically terminate upon first notification to the Holder of
such termination, unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise. If a
Holder's employment or services with the Company are suspended pending an
investigation of whether the Holder shall be terminated for Cause, all the
Holder's rights under any Option likewise shall be suspended during the period
of investigation.

     A transfer of employment or services between or among the Company and its
Subsidiaries shall not be considered a termination of employment or services.
Unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise, a leave of absence approved
in accordance with Company procedures shall not be considered a termination of
employment or services.

                           SECTION 7.  ASSIGNABILITY

     Except as may be provided in a stock option agreement, Options granted
under the Plan and any interest therein may not be assigned, pledged or
transferred by the Holder and may not be made subject to attachment or similar
proceedings other than by will or by the applicable laws of descent and
distribution, and during the Holder's lifetime, such Options may be exercised
only by the Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan Administrator, in
its sole discretion, may permit such assignment, transfer and exercisability and
may permit a Holder to designate a beneficiary who may exercise the Option or
receive compensation under the Option after the Holder's death; provided,
however, that any Option so assigned or transferred shall be subject to all the
same terms and conditions contained in the instrument evidencing the Option.

                            SECTION 8.  ADJUSTMENTS

8.1  Adjustment of Shares

     In the event that, at any time or from time to time, a stock dividend,
stock split, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares, recapitalization,
merger, consolidation, distribution to stockholders other than a normal cash
dividend, or other change in the Company's corporate or capital structure
results in (a) the outstanding shares, or any securities exchanged therefor or
received in their place, being exchanged for a different number or class of
securities of the Company or of any other corporation or (b) new, different or
additional securities of the Company or of any other corporation being received
by the holders of shares of Common Stock of the Company, then the Plan
Administrator shall make proportional adjustments as it shall deem appropriate
in the circumstances in (i) the maximum number and kind of securities subject to
the Plan as set forth in Section 4.1, and (ii) the number and kind of securities
that are subject to any outstanding Option and the per share price of such
securities, without any change in the aggregate price to be paid therefor. The
determination by the Plan Administrator as to the terms of any of the foregoing
adjustments shall be conclusive and binding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a
dissolution or liquidation of the Company or a Corporate Transaction shall not
be governed by this Section 8.1 but shall be governed by Sections 8.2 and 8.3,
respectively.

                                       8
<PAGE>

8.2  Dissolution or Liquidation

     In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the
Plan Administrator shall notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to
the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Plan Administrator in its
discretion may permit a Participant to exercise an Option until 10 days prior to
such transaction with respect to all vested and exercisable shares of Common
Stock covered thereby and with respect to such number of unvested shares as the
Plan Administrator shall determine. In addition, the Plan Administrator may
provide that any forfeiture provision or Company repurchase option applicable to
any Option shall lapse as to such number of shares as the Plan Administrator
shall determine, contingent upon the occurrence of the proposed dissolution or
liquidation at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent an Option
has not been previously exercised, the Option shall terminate automatically
immediately prior to the consummation of the proposed action. To the extent a
forfeiture provision applicable to a Stock Option has not been waived by the
Plan Administrator, the Stock Option shall be forfeited automatically
immediately prior to the consummation of the proposed action.

8.3  Corporate Transaction

     8.3.1  Options

     In the event of a Corporate Transaction, except as otherwise provided in
the instrument evidencing the Option, each outstanding Option shall be assumed
or continued or an equivalent option or right substituted by the surviving
corporation, the successor corporation or its parent corporation, as applicable
(the "Successor Corporation"). In the event that the Successor Corporation
refuses to assume, continue or substitute for the Option, the Participant shall
fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option as to all of the shares
of Common Stock subject thereto, including shares as to which the Option would
not otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Option shall become fully vested
and exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a
Corporate Transaction, the Plan Administrator shall notify the Participant in
writing or electronically that the Option shall be fully vested and exercisable
for a specified time period after the date of such notice, and the Option shall
terminate upon the expiration of such period, in each case conditioned on the
consummation of the Corporate Transaction. For purposes of this Section 8.3.1,
the Option shall be considered assumed if, following the Corporate Transaction,
the option or right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each share of
Common Stock subject to the Option, immediately prior to the Corporate
Transaction, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or
property) received in the merger or sale of assets by holders of Common Stock
for each share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders
were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the
holders of a majority of the outstanding shares); provided, however, that if
such consideration received in the Corporate Transaction is not solely common
stock of the Successor Corporation, the Plan Administrator may, with the consent
of the Successor Corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon
the exercise of the Option, for each share of Common Stock subject thereto, to
be solely common stock of the Successor Corporation equal in fair market value
to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the
Corporate Transaction. All Options shall terminate and cease to remain
outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Corporate Transaction,
except to the extent assumed by the Successor Corporation.

                                       9
<PAGE>

     8.3.2  Acceleration Upon Termination of Employment

     Except as may be provided in the instrument evidencing the Option, any
Options that are assumed or replaced in the Corporate Transaction, other than a
Related Party Transaction, and do not otherwise accelerate at that time shall be
accelerated in the event the Holder's employment or services should subsequently
terminate within two years following such Corporate Transaction, unless such
employment or services are terminated by the Successor Corporation for Cause or
by the Holder voluntarily without Good Reason.

8.4  Further Adjustment of Options

     Without limiting the preceding Sections 8.2 and 8.3 of the Plan, the Plan
Administrator shall have the discretion, exercisable at any time before a sale,
merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation or change in control of the
Company, as defined by the Plan Administrator, to take such further action as it
determines to be necessary or advisable, and fair and equitable to Participants,
with respect to Options. Such authorized action may include (but shall not be
limited to) establishing, amending or waiving the type, terms, conditions or
duration of, or restrictions on, Options so as to provide for earlier, later,
extended or additional time for exercise, payment or settlement or lifting
restrictions, differing methods for calculating payments or settlements,
alternate forms and amounts of payments and settlements and other modifications,
and the Plan Administrator may take such actions with respect to all
Participants, to certain categories of Participants or only to individual
Participants. The Plan Administrator may take such actions before or after
granting Options to which the action relates and before or after any public
announcement with respect to such sale, merger, consolidation, reorganization,
liquidation or change in control that is the reason for such action.

8.5  Limitations

     The grant of Options will in no way affect the Company's right to adjust,
reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or
to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part
of its business or assets.

                       SECTION 9.  WITHHOLDING OF TAXES

     The Company may require the Participant to pay to the Company the amount of
any withholding taxes that the Company is required to withhold with respect to
the grant, vesting or exercise of any Option. Subject to the Plan and applicable
law, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, permit the Participant
to satisfy withholding obligations, in whole or in part, (a) by paying cash, (b)
by electing to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock (up to the
minimum required federal tax withholding rate) or (c) by transferring to the
Company shares of Common Stock (already owned by the Participant for such period
necessary to avoid a charge to the Company's earnings for financial reporting
purposes), in such amounts as are equivalent to the Fair Market Value of the
withholding obligation. The Company shall have the right to withhold from any
Option or any shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to an Option (up to the
minimum required federal tax withholding rate) or from any cash amounts
otherwise due or to become due from the Company to the Participant an amount
equal to such taxes. The Company may also deduct from any Option any other
amounts due from the Participant to the Company or a Subsidiary.

11.2  Continued Employment or Services; Rights in Options

     Neither the Plan, participation in the Plan as a Participant nor any action
of the Plan Administrator taken under the Plan shall be construed as giving any
Participant or employee of the Company any right to be retained in the employ of
the Company or a Subsidiary or limit the Company's or a Subsidiary's right to
terminate the employment or services of the Participant at any time, with or
without Cause.

11.3  Registration; Certificates for Shares

     The Company shall be under no obligation to any Participant to register for
offering or resale under the Securities Act or register or qualify under state
securities laws, any shares of Common Stock, security or interest in a security
paid or issued under, or created by, the Plan, or to continue in effect any such
registrations or qualifications if made. The Company may issue certificates for
shares with such legends and subject to such restrictions on transfer and stop-
transfer instructions as counsel for the Company deems necessary or desirable
for compliance by the Company with federal and state securities laws.

     To the extent that the Plan or any instrument evidencing an Option provides
for issuance of stock certificates to reflect the issuance of shares of Common
Stock, the issuance may be effected on a noncertificated basis, to the extent
not prohibited by applicable law or the applicable rules of any stock exchange.

11.4  No Rights as a Stockholder

     No Option or Stock Option denominated in units shall entitle the Holder to
any dividend, voting or other right of a stockholder unless and until the date
of issuance under the Plan of the shares that are the subject of such Options.

11.5  Compliance With Laws and Regulations

     Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Plan
Administrator, in its sole discretion, may bifurcate the Plan so as to restrict,
limit or condition the use of any provision of the Plan to Participants who
become officers or directors subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act without
so restricting, limiting or conditioning the Plan with respect to other
Participants.

11.6  Participants in Foreign Countries

     The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to adopt such
modifications, procedures and subplans as may be necessary or desirable to
comply with provisions of the laws of foreign countries in which the Company or
its Subsidiaries may operate to assure the viability of the benefits from
Options granted to Participants employed in such countries and to meet the
objectives of the Plan.

11.7  No Trust or Fund

     The Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan. Nothing contained
herein shall require the Company to segregate any monies or other property, or
shares of Common Stock, or to create any trusts, or to make any special deposits
for any immediate or deferred amounts payable to any Participant, and no
Participant shall have any rights that are greater than those of a general
unsecured creditor of the Company.

11.8  Severability

     If any provision of the Plan or any Option is determined to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person, or would
disqualify the Plan or any Option under any law deemed applicable by the Plan
Administrator, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to
applicable laws, or, if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in
the Plan Administrator's determination, materially altering the intent of the
Plan or the Option, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction,
person or Option, and the remainder of the Plan and any such Option shall remain
in full force and effect.

11.9  Choice of Law

     The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to
the extent not otherwise governed by the laws of the United States, shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Washington without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of laws.

                          SECTION 12.  EFFECTIVE DATE

     The Plan's effective date is the date on which it is adopted by the Board.

     Adopted by the Board of Directors on July 17, 2000. Amended by the Board on
January 9, 2001.
