      4.    COMPENSATION.

            4.1. Base Salary. Commencing on the Effective Date, the Company
shall pay to Executive a base salary at an annual rate of $150,000 (as may be
adjusted from time to time, the "Base Salary"), payable in accordance with the
payroll practices of the Company in effect from time to time. Base Salary
payments shall be subject to withholding and other applicable taxes.

            4.2. Annual Bonus. With respect to each full fiscal year until the
Termination Date, Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual bonus award
of up to 50% of Base Salary, as determined by annual pre-determined milestones
which shall be mutually agreeable to Executive and the Board in its sole
discretion.

            4.3. Option Grant. The Executive shall be granted an option pursuant
to an option agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B
(the "Stock Option Agreement") to purchase 150,000 shares of Company Common
Stock. The Executive Option may be exercised, from time to time, with respect to
all or any part of the then vested shares in accordance with the following
vesting schedule: 15,000 shares shall vest immediately; 33,750 shares shall vest
over four years on each anniversary date following the Effective Date; provided,
however, all shares subject to the Executive Option shall immediately vest upon
the consummation of a Change of Control..

            4.4. Employee Benefits. Until the Termination Date, or such later
time as provided in Section 5, Executive shall be entitled to receive health and
disability insurance and the opportunity to participate in any 401(k) plan to
the same extent as such benefits are in effect from time to time for other
executive officers of the Company ("Benefits").

            4.5. Moving Expenses Allowance. Executive shall be entitled to
reimbursement by the Company to relocate from San Ramon, CA to Tucson, AZ.
Reimbursement for all actual and reasonable moving expenses up to $35,000 is to
be paid after the move is completed. To be eligible for this moving expenses
allowance you much complete your move by the end of August 2005. Up until the
earlier of your move or August 31, 2005, the Company will reimburse to you,
subject to presentment of appropriate supporting documentation, for up to $3,000
per month in reasonable apartment, auto rental and travel expenses incurred by
you prior to relocating to Tucson. If you decide to leave Company's employment
within 18 months after your move, you must repay these moving expenses, within
30 days after you leave the Company, prorated by the number of full months
remaining in this 18-month period. (For example, if you leave Company after 6
months, you would be obligated to repay 12/18 of the moving expenses.) In such
an event, Company may offset these moving expenses against amounts the Company
owes you at the time of your departure.

            4.6. Expense Reimbursement and Housing Allowance. Executive shall be
entitled to reimbursement by the Company for all reasonable travel, lodging, and
other expenses actually incurred by Executive in connection with the performance
of his duties, against receipts or other appropriate written evidence of such
expenditures as required by the appropriate United States Internal Revenue
Service regulations and, for any expenses in excess of $1,000

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

individually or $10,000 in the aggregate, subject to the Chief Executive
Officer's prior approval.

      5.    TERMINATION.

            5.1. Disability. At the election of the Company, Executive's
employment and this Agreement shall terminate upon Executive's becoming totally
or permanently disabled. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "totally or
permanently disabled" or "total or permanent disability" means any physical or
mental condition that prevents Executive from performing Executive's employment
duties and responsibilities under this Agreement for a period of more than 90
consecutive days or for more than 180 days during any twelve (12) month period.
A reasonable determination by the Company of the existence of a disability shall
be conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In making such determination of
disability, the Company may utilize such advice and consultation as it deems
appropriate, but there is no requirement of procedure or formality associated
with the making of a determination of disability.

            5.2. Death of or Resignation by Executive. Executive's employment
and this Agreement shall terminate immediately upon the death of or resignation
by Executive.

            5.3. Termination for Cause or without Good Reason. If (a) the
Company terminates Executive's employment at any time for Cause or (b) Executive
terminates his employment at any time other than for Good Reason, Executive
shall be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of his Base Salary through the
Termination Date. Other than the payments described in this subsection,
Executive shall be entitled to no other payments from the Company.

            5.4. Termination Without Cause. The Company may terminate
Executive's employment and this Agreement at any time without cause or reason
upon written notice to Executive. Termination "without cause" shall mean
termination by the Company of employment on any basis other than termination of
Executive's employment hereunder pursuant to Section 5.3.

            5.5. No Additional Effect on Executive Option. The right of
Executive to retain the vested portion of his rights under the Executive Option
shall be governed by the Stock Option Agreement entered into by and between the
Company and Executive.

      6.    PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AGREEMENT AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. The parties
acknowledge and incorporate that certain Invention and Confidential Information
Agreement ("Invention and Confidential Information Agreement") and Arbitration
Agreement ("Arbitration Agreement") executed by Executive, copies of which are
attached hereto as Exhibit A.

      7.    MISCELLANEOUS.

            7.1. Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements made herein shall survive the execution of this Agreement.

            7.2. Assignment. This Agreement and the rights and obligations
hereunder shall be assignable only with the prior written consent of each of the
parties; provided, however,

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

that the Company may assign its rights under this Agreement to the surviving
entity pursuant to a sale of substantially all of the Company's assets, by
merger or consolidation or by a sale of all of the Company's capital stock
(provided that the surviving entity shall remain liable as to all obligations of
the Company under this Agreement).

            7.3. Benefits of Agreement. This Agreement and all obligations of
the parties shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, their respective
successors and assigns.

            7.4. Severability. In case any provision of the Agreement shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby,
and the court making the determination of invalidity, illegality, or
unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of
the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any
invalid, illegal, or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision
that is valid, legal and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the
intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement
shall be enforceable as so modified.

            7.5. Further Assurances. Each party agrees to execute such other
documents, instruments, agreements and consents, and take such other actions as

            7.7. Delays or Omissions. It is agreed that no delay or omission to
exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach,
default or noncompliance by another party under this Agreement shall impair any
such right, power or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any
such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of or in
any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. All remedies
shall be cumulative and not alternative.
