                        QUINTON CARDIOLOGY SYSTEMS, INC.
                            2002 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

      Pursuant to your Stock Option Grant Notice (the "Grant Notice") and this
Stock Option Agreement, Quinton Cardiology Systems, Inc. has granted you an
Option under its 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") to purchase the number
of shares of the Company's Common Stock indicated in your Grant Notice (the
"Shares") at the exercise price indicated in your Grant Notice. Capitalized
terms not explicitly defined in this Stock Option Agreement but defined in the
Plan shall have the same definitions as in the Plan.

      The details of the Option are as follows:

      1. VESTING AND EXERCISABILITY. Subject to the limitations contained
herein, the Option will vest and become exercisable as provided in your Grant
Notice, provided that vesting will cease upon the termination of your employment
or service relationship with the Company or a Related Company and the unvested
portion of the Option will terminate.

      2. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, you may not exercise the Option unless the Shares issuable upon
exercise are registered under the Securities Act or, if such Shares are not then
so registered, the Company has determined that such exercise and issuance would
be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise
of the Option must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations
governing the Option, and you may not exercise the Option if the Company
determines that such exercise would not be in material compliance with such laws
and regulations.

      3. INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION QUALIFICATION. If so designated in your Grant
Notice, all or a portion of the Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive
Stock Option under federal income tax law, but the Company does not represent or
guarantee that the Option qualifies as such.

      If the Option has been designated as an Incentive Stock Option and the
aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the grant date) of the shares of
Common Stock subject to the portions of the Option and all other Incentive Stock
Options you hold that first become exercisable during any calendar year exceeds
$100,000, any excess portion will be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option,
unless the Internal Revenue Service changes the rules and regulations governing
the $100,000 limit for Incentive Stock Options. A portion of the Option may be
treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option if certain events cause exercisability of
the Option to accelerate.

      4. NOTICE OF DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION. To the extent the Option has been
designated as an Incentive Stock Option, to obtain certain tax benefits afforded
to Incentive Stock Options, you must hold the Shares issued upon the exercise of
the Option for two years after the Grant Date and one year after the date of
exercise. You may be subject to the alternative minimum tax at the time of
exercise. You should obtain tax advice when exercising the Option and prior to
the disposition of the Shares. By accepting the Option, you

                                                                               2
<PAGE>

agree to promptly notify the Company if you dispose of any of the Shares within
one year from the date you exercise all or part of the Option or within two
years from the Grant Date.

      5. METHOD OF EXERCISE. You may exercise the Option by giving written
notice to the Company, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, which
will state your election to exercise the Option and the number of Shares for
which you are exercising the Option. The written notice must be accompanied by
full payment of the exercise price for the number of Shares you are purchasing.
At the discretion of the Plan Administrator, you may make this payment in any
combination of the following: (a) by cash; (b) by check acceptable to the
Company; (c) by using shares of Common Stock you have owned for at least six
months; (d) if the Common Stock is registered under the Exchange Act, by
instructing a broker to deliver to the Company the total payment required; or
(e) by any other method permitted by the Plan Administrator.

      6. MARKET STANDOFF. By exercising the Option you agree that the Shares
will be subject to the market standoff restrictions on transfer set forth in the
Plan.

      7. TREATMENT UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE RELATIONSHIP. The
unvested portion of the Option will terminate automatically and without further
notice immediately upon termination of your employment or service relationship
with the Company or a Related Company for any reason ("Termination of Service").
You may exercise the vested portion of the Option as follows:

            (a) General Rule. You must exercise the vested portion of the Option
on or before the earlier of (i) three months after your Termination of Service
and (ii) the Option Expiration Date;

            (b) Disability. If your employment or service relationship
terminates due to Disability, you must exercise the vested portion of the Option
on or before the earlier of (i) one year after your Termination of Service and
(ii) the Option Expiration Date.

            (c) Death. If your employment or service relationship terminates due
to your death, the vested portion of the Option must be exercised on or before
the earlier of (i) one year after your Termination of Service and (ii) the
Option Expiration Date. If you die after your Termination of Service but while
the Option is still exercisable, the vested portion of the Option may be
exercised until the earlier of (x) one year after the date of death and (y) the
Option Expiration Date; and

            (d) Cause. The vested portion of the Option will automatically
expire at the time the Company first notifies you of your Termination of Service
for Cause, unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise. If your
employment or service relationship is suspended pending an investigation of
whether you will be terminated for Cause, all your rights under the Option
likewise will be suspended during the period of investigation. If any facts that
would constitute termination for Cause are discovered after your Termination of
Service, any Option you then hold may be immediately terminated by the Plan
Administrator.

      The Option must be exercised within three months after termination of
employment for reasons other than death or Disability and one year after
termination of employment due to Disability to qualify for the beneficial tax
treatment afforded Incentive Stock Options.

                                                                               3
<PAGE>

      IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO BE AWARE OF THE DATE THE OPTION TERMINATES.

      8. LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY. During your lifetime only you can exercise the
Option. The Option is not transferable except by will or by the applicable laws
of descent and distribution, except that Nonqualified Stock Options may be
transferred to the extent permitted by the Plan Administrator. The Plan provides
for exercise of the Option by a beneficiary designated on a Company-approved
form or the personal representative of your estate.

      9. WITHHOLDING TAXES. As a condition to the exercise of any portion of an
Option, you must make such arrangements as the Company may require for the
satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations
that may arise in connection with such exercise.

      10. OPTION NOT AN EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE CONTRACT. Nothing in the Plan or
any Award granted under the Plan will be deemed to constitute an employment
contract or confer or be deemed to confer any right for you to continue in the
employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or any
Related Company or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Related
Company to terminate your employment or other relationship at any time, with or
without Cause.

      11. NO RIGHT TO DAMAGES. You will have no right to bring a claim or to
receive damages if you are required to exercise the vested portion of the Option
within three months (one year in the case of Disability or death) of the
Termination of Service or if any portion of the Option is cancelled or expires
unexercised. The loss of existing or potential profit in Awards will not
constitute an element of damages in the event of your Termination of Service for
any reason even if the termination is in violation of an obligation of the
Company or a Related Company to you.

      12. BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of the
successors and assigns of the Company and be binding upon you and your heirs,
executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

      14. LIMITATION ON RIGHTS; NO RIGHT TO FUTURE GRANTS; EXTRAORDINARY ITEM OF
COMPENSATION. By entering into this Agreement and accepting the grant of the
Option evidenced hereby, you acknowledge: (a) that the Plan is discretionary in
nature and may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; (b) that
the grant of the Option is a one-time benefit which does not create any
contractual or other right to receive future grants of options, or benefits in
lieu of options; (c) that all determinations with respect to any such future
grants, including, but not limited to, the times when options will be granted,
the number of shares subject to each option, the option price, and the time or
times when each option will be exercisable, will be at the sole discretion of
the Company; (d) that your participation in the Plan is voluntary; (e) that the
value of the Option is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside
the scope of your employment contract, if any; (f) that the Option is not part
of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance,
resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards,
pension or retirement benefits or similar payments; (g) that the vesting of the
Option ceases upon your Termination of Service for any reason except as may
otherwise be explicitly provided in the Plan or this Agreement or otherwise
permitted by the Plan Administrator;

                                                                               4
<PAGE>

(h) that the future value of the Shares underlying the Option is unknown and
cannot be predicted with certainty; and (i) that if the Shares underlying the
Option do not increase in value, the Option will have no value.

      15. EMPLOYEE DATA PRIVACY. By entering this Agreement, you (a) authorize
the Company and your employer, if different, and any agent of the Company
administering the Plan or providing Plan recordkeeping services, to disclose to
the Company or any of its affiliates any information and data the Company
requests in order to facilitate the grant of the Option and the administration
of the Plan; (b) waive any data privacy rights you may have with respect to such
information; and (c) authorize the Company and its agents to store and transmit
such information in electronic form.

                                                                               5
