SECTION 3   Administration Of The Plan.

        (a) Committee Composition. The Plan shall be administered by the
Committee. The Committee shall consist exclusively of one or more directors of
the Company, who shall be appointed by the Board.

        (b) Committee Responsibilities. The Committee shall interpret the Plan
and make all other policy decisions relating to the operation of the Plan. The

SECTION 4   Enrollment And Participation.

        (a) Offering Periods. While the Plan is in effect, two Offering Periods
shall commence in each calendar year. The Offering Periods shall consist of the
24-month periods commencing on each May 1st and November 1st, except that the
first Offering Period shall commence on the date of the IPO and end on October
31, 2002.

        (b) Accumulation Periods. While the Plan is in effect, two Accumulation
Periods shall commence in each calendar year. The Accumulation Periods shall
consist of the six month periods commencing on May 1st and November 1st, except
that the first Accumulation Period shall commence on the dated of the IPO and
end on October 31, 2000.

        (c) Enrollment. Any individual who, on the day preceding the first day
of an Offering Period, qualifies as an Eligible Employee may elect to become a
Participant in the Plan for such Offering Period by executing the enrollment
form prescribed for this purpose by the Committee. The enrollment form shall be
filed with the Company at the prescribed location not later than 15 days prior
to the commencement of such Offering Period.

        (d) Duration of Participation. Once enrolled in the Plan, a Participant
shall continue to participate in the Plan until he or she ceases to be an

of the Offering Period in which his or her employee

<PAGE>   7


contributions were discontinued under Section 5(d) or 9(b). A Participant who
discontinued employee contributions under Section 5(d) or 9(b) or withdrew from
the Plan under Section 6(a) may again become a Participant, if he or she then is
an Eligible Employee, by following the procedure described in Subsection (c)
above. A Participant whose employee contributions were discontinued
automatically under Section 9(b) shall automatically resume participation at the
beginning of the earliest Offering Period ending in the next calendar year, if
he or she then is an Eligible Employee.

        (e) Applicable Offering Period. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price under Section 8(b), the applicable Offering Period shall be determined as
follows:

                (i) Once a Participant is enrolled in the Plan for an Offering
        Period, such Offering Period shall continue to apply to him or her until
        the earliest of: (A) the end of such Offering Period; (B) the end of his
        or her participation under Subsection (d) above; or (C) re-enrollment in
        a subsequent Offering Period under Paragraph (ii) below.

                (ii) In the event that the Fair Market Value of Stock on the
        last trading day before the commencement of the Offering Period in which
        the Participant is enrolled is higher than on the last trading day
        before the commencement of any subsequent Offering Period, the
        Participant shall automatically be re-enrolled for such subsequent
        Offering Period.

                (iii) When a Participant reaches the end of an Offering Period
        but his or her participation is to continue, then such Participant shall
        automatically be re-enrolled for the Offering Period that commences
        immediately after the end of the prior Offering Period.

SECTION 5   Employee Contributions.

        (a) Frequency of Payroll Deductions. A Participant may purchase shares
of Stock under the Plan solely by means of payroll deductions. Payroll
deductions, as designated by the Participant pursuant to Subsection (b) below,
shall occur on each payday during participation in the Plan.

        (b) Amount of Payroll Deductions. An Eligible Employee shall designate
on the enrollment form the portion of his or her Compensation that he or she
elects to have withheld for the purchase of Stock. Such portion shall be a whole
percentage of the Eligible Employee's Compensation, but not less than 1% nor
more than 15%.

        (c) Changing Withholding Rate. If a Participant wishes to change the
rate of payroll withholding, he or she may do so by filing a new enrollment form
with the Company at the prescribed location at any time. The new withholding
rate shall be effective as soon as reasonably practicable after such form has
been received by the Company. The new withholding rate shall be a whole
percentage of the Eligible Employee's Compensation, but not less than 1% nor
more than 15%.

        (d) Discontinuing Payroll Deductions. If a Participant wishes to
discontinue employee contributions entirely, he or she may do so by filing a new
enrollment form with the


                                      -4-
<PAGE>   8

Company at the prescribed location at any time. Payroll withholding shall cease
as soon as reasonably practicable after such form has been received by the
Company. In addition, employee contributions may be discontinued automatically
pursuant to Section 9(b). A Participant who has discontinued employee
contributions may resume such contributions by filing a new enrollment form with
the Company at the prescribed location. Payroll withholding shall resume as soon
as reasonably practicable after such form has been received by the Company.

        (e) Limit on Number of Elections. No Participant shall make more than 2
elections under Subsection (c) or (d) above during any Offering Period.

SECTION 6   Withdrawal From The Plan.

        (a) Withdrawal. A Participant may elect to withdraw from the Plan by
filing the prescribed form with the Company at the prescribed location at any
time before the last day of an Accumulation Period. As soon as reasonably
practicable thereafter, payroll deductions shall cease and the entire amount
credited to the Participant's Plan Account shall be refunded to him or her in
cash, without interest. No partial withdrawals shall be permitted.

        (b) Re-enrollment After Withdrawal. A former Participant who has
withdrawn from the Plan shall not be a Participant until he or she re-enrolls in
the Plan under Section 4(c). Re-enrollment may be effective only at the
commencement of an Offering Period.

SECTION 7   Change In Employment Status.

        (a) Termination of Employment. Termination of employment as an Eligible
Employee for any reason, including death, shall be treated as an automatic
withdrawal from the Plan under Section 6(a). A transfer from one Participating
Company to another shall not be treated as a termination of employment.

        (b) Leave of Absence. For purposes of the Plan, employment shall not be
deemed to terminate when the Participant goes on a military leave, a sick leave
or another bona fide leave of absence, if the leave was approved by the Company
in writing. Employment, however, shall be deemed to terminate 90 days after the
Participant goes on a leave, unless a contract or statute guarantees his or her
right to return to work. Employment shall be deemed to terminate in any event
when the approved leave ends, unless the Participant immediately returns to
work.

        (c) Death. In the event of the Participant's death, the amount credited
to his or her Plan Account shall be paid to a beneficiary designated by him or
her for this purpose on the prescribed form or, if none, to the Participant's
estate. Such form shall be valid only if it was filed with the Company at the
prescribed location before the Participant's death.

SECTION 8   Plan Accounts And Purchase Of Shares.

        (a) Plan Accounts. The Company shall maintain a Plan Account on its
books in the name of each Participant. Whenever an amount is deducted from the
Participant's Compensation under the Plan, such amount shall be credited to the
Participant's Plan Account. Amounts credited to Plan Accounts shall not be trust
funds and may be commingled with the Company's


                                      -5-
<PAGE>   9

general assets and applied to general corporate purposes. No interest shall be
credited to Plan Accounts.

        (b) Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for each share of Stock purchased
at the close of an Accumulation Period shall be the lower of:

                (i) 85% of the Fair Market Value of such share on the last
        trading day in such Accumulation Period; or

                (ii) 85% of the Fair Market Value of such share on the last
        trading day before the commencement of the applicable Offering Period
        (as determined under Section 4(e)) or, in the case of the first Offering
        Period under the Plan, 85% of the price at which one share of Stock is
        offered to the public in the IPO.

        (c) Number of Shares Purchased. As of the last day of each Accumulation
Period, each Participant shall be deemed to have elected to purchase the number
of shares of Stock calculated in accordance with this Subsection (c), unless the
Participant has previously elected to withdraw from the Plan in accordance with
Section 6(a). The amount then in the Participant's Plan Account shall be divided
by the Purchase Price, and the number of shares that results shall be purchased
from the Company with the funds in the Participant's Plan Account. The foregoing
notwithstanding, no Participant shall purchase more than 1,500 shares of Stock
with respect to any Accumulation Period nor more than the amounts of Stock set
forth in Sections 9(b) and 14(a). The Committee may determine with respect to
all Participants that any fractional share, as calculated under this Subsection
(c), shall be (i) rounded down to the next lower whole share or (ii) credited as
a fractional share.

        (d) Available Shares Insufficient. In the event that the aggregate
number of shares that all Participants elect to purchase during an Accumulation
Period exceeds the maximum number of shares remaining available for issuance
under Section 14(a), then the number of shares to which each Participant is
entitled shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares available for
issuance by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares that such
Participant has elected to purchase and the denominator of which is the number
of shares that all Participants have elected to purchase.

        (e) Issuance of Stock. Certificates representing the shares of Stock
purchased by a Participant under the Plan shall be issued to him or her as soon
as reasonably practicable after the close of the applicable Accumulation Period,
except that the Committee may determine that such shares shall be held for each
Participant's benefit by a broker designated by the Committee (unless the
Participant has elected that certificates be issued to him or her). Shares may
be registered in the name of the Participant or jointly in the name of the
Participant and his or her spouse as joint tenants with right of survivorship or
as community property.

        (f) Unused Cash Balances. An amount remaining in the Participant's Plan
Account that represents the Purchase Price for any fractional share shall be
carried over in the Participant's Plan Account to the next Accumulation Period.
Any amount remaining in the Participant's Plan Account that represents the
Purchase Price for whole shares that could not be


                                      -6-
<PAGE>   10

purchased by reason of Subsection (c) above, Section 9(b) or Section 14(a) shall
be refunded to the Participant in cash, without interest.

        (g) Stockholder Approval. Any other provision of the Plan
notwithstanding, no shares of Stock shall be purchased under the Plan unless and
until the Company's stockholders have approved the adoption of the Plan.

SECTION 9   Limitations On Stock Ownership.

        (a) Five Percent Limit. Any other provision of the Plan notwithstanding,
no Participant shall be granted a right to purchase Stock under the Plan if such
Participant, immediately after his or her election to purchase such Stock, would
own stock possessing more than 5% of the total combined voting power or value of
all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or Subsidiary of the Company.
For purposes of this Subsection (a), the following rules shall apply:

(i)     Ownership of stock shall be determined after applying the attribution
        rules of section 424(d) of the Code;

(ii)    Each Participant shall be deemed to own any stock that he or she has a
        right or option to purchase under this or any other plan; and

(iii)   Each Participant shall be deemed to have the right to purchase up to
        1,500 shares of Stock under this Plan with respect to each Accumulation
        Period.

        (b) Dollar Limit. Any other provision of the Plan notwithstanding, no
Participant shall purchase Stock with a Fair Market Value in excess of the
following limit:

        Any other provision of the Plan notwithstanding, no Participant shall
purchase Stock with a Fair Market Value in excess of $25,000 per calendar year
(under this Plan and all other employee stock purchase plans of the Company or
any parent or Subsidiary of the Company).

        For purposes of this Subsection (b), the Fair Market Value of Stock
shall be determined in each case as of the beginning of the Offering Period in
which such Stock is purchased. Employee stock purchase plans not described in
section 423 of the Code shall be disregarded. If a Participant is precluded by
this Subsection (b) from purchasing additional Stock under the Plan, then his or
her employee contributions shall automatically be discontinued and shall resume
at the beginning of the earliest Accumulation Period ending in the next calendar
year (if he or she then is an Eligible Employee).

SECTION 10   Rights Not Transferable.

        The rights of any Participant under the Plan, or any Participant's
interest in any Stock or moneys to which he or she may be entitled under the
Plan, shall not be transferable by voluntary or involuntary assignment or by
operation of law, or in any other manner other than by beneficiary designation
or the laws of descent and distribution. If a Participant in any manner attempts
to transfer, assign or otherwise encumber his or her rights or interest under
the Plan,


                                      -7-
<PAGE>   11

other than by beneficiary designation or the laws of descent and distribution,
then such act shall be treated as an election by the Participant to withdraw
from the Plan under Section 6(a).

SECTION 11   No Rights As An Employee.

        Nothing in the Plan or in any right granted under the Plan shall confer
upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of a Participating
Company for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise
restrict in any way the rights of the Participating Companies or of the
Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate
his or her employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause.

SECTION 12   No Rights As A Stockholder.

        A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any
shares of Stock that he or she may have a right to purchase under the Plan until
such shares have been purchased on the last day of the applicable Offering
Period.

SECTION 13   Securities Law Requirements.

        Shares of Stock shall not be issued under the Plan unless the issuance
