                              AMENDED AND RESTATED

                             1993 STOCK OPTION PLAN

     1.   ESTABLISHMENT, PURPOSE AND TERM OF PLAN.

          1.1  ESTABLISHMENT. The Pumatech, Inc. 1993 Stock Option Plan

          1.2  PURPOSE. The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of
the Participating Company Group and its stockholders by providing an incentive
to attract, retain and reward persons performing services for the Participating
Company Group and by motivating such persons to contribute to the growth and
profitability of the Participating Company Group.

          1.3  TERM OF PLAN. The Plan shall continue in effect until the earlier
of its termination by the Board or the date on which all of the shares of Stock
available for issuance under the Plan have been issued and all restrictions on
such shares under the terms of the Plan and the agreements evidencing Options
granted under the Plan have lapsed. However, all Incentive Stock Options shall
be granted, if at all, within ten (10) years from the earlier of the date the
Plan is adopted by the Board or the date the Plan is duly approved by the
stockholders of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the maximum
number of shares of Stock issuable pursuant to the Plan as provided in Section
4.1 has been increased at any time, all Incentive Stock Options shall be
granted, if at all, no later than the last day preceding the tenth (10th)
anniversary of the earlier of (a) the date on which the latest such increase in
the maximum number of shares of Stock issuable under the Plan was approved by

               (h)  to delegate to any proper officer of the Company the
authority to grant one or more Options, without further approval of the Board,
to any person eligible pursuant to Section 5, other than a person who, at the

provided, however, that (i) such Options shall not be granted to any one person
within any twelve (12) month period for more than fifty thousand (50,000) shares
in the aggregate, (ii) the exercise price per share of each such Option shall be
equal to 100% of the closing price per share of the Stock on the effective date
of grant (or, if no price is reported for such date, on the last day preceding
the date of grant on which such price is reported) as quoted on the National
Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (or the average of
the closing bid and asked prices if the shares of Stock are so quoted instead),
or as reported on such other stock exchange or market system which constitutes
the primary market for the Stock, and (iii) each such Option shall be subject to
the terms and conditions of the appropriate standard form of Option Agreement
approved by the Board and shall conform to the provisions of the Plan and such
other guidelines as shall be established from time to time by the Board, as well
as the Company's guidelines for stock option grants authorized for new hires;

               (i)  to prescribe, amend or rescind rules, guidelines and
policies relating to the Plan, or to adopt supplements to, or alternative
versions of, the Plan, including, without limitation, as the Board deems
necessary or desirable to comply with the laws of, or to accommodate the tax
policy or custom of, foreign jurisdictions whose citizens may be granted
Options; and

               (j)  to correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any

determinations and take



                                       4
<PAGE>


such other actions with respect to the Plan or any Option as the Board may
deem advisable to the extent consistent with the Plan and applicable law.

          3.3  COMMITTEE COMPLYING WITH SECTION 162(m). If a Participating
Company is a "publicly held corporation" within the meaning of Section 162(m),
the Board may establish a Committee of "outside directors" within the meaning of
Section 162(m) to approve the grant of any Option which might reasonably be
anticipated to result in the payment of employee remuneration that would
otherwise exceed the limit on employee remuneration deductible for income tax
purposes pursuant to Section 162(m).

     4.   SHARES SUBJECT TO PLAN.

          4.1  MAXIMUM NUMBER OF SHARES ISSUABLE. Subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 4.2, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that
may be issued under the Plan shall be five million five hundred thousand
(5,500,000) and shall consist of authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of
Stock or any combination thereof. If any outstanding Option for any reason
expires or is terminated or canceled or shares of Stock acquired, subject to
repurchase, upon the exercise of an Option are repurchased by the Company, the
shares of Stock allocable to the unexercised portion of such Option, or such
repurchased shares of Stock, shall again be available for issuance under the
Plan.

          4.2  ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. In the event of any
stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination,
reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company,
appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number and class of shares subject
to the Plan and to any outstanding Options and in the exercise price per share
of any outstanding Options. If a majority of the shares which are of the same
class as the shares that are subject to outstanding Options are exchanged for,
converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership
Change Event, as defined in Section 8.1) shares of another corporation (the "NEW
SHARES"), the Board may unilaterally amend the outstanding Options to provide
that such Options are exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such
amendment, the number of shares subject to, and the exercise price per share of,
the outstanding Options shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner as
determined by the Board, in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.2
shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number, as determined by the
Board, and in no event may the exercise price of any Option be decreased to an
amount less than the par value, if any, of the stock subject to the Option. The
adjustments determined by the Board pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be final,
binding and conclusive.

     5.   ELIGIBILITY AND OPTION LIMITATIONS.

          5.1  PERSONS ELIGIBLE FOR OPTIONS. Options may be granted only to
Employees, Consultants, and Directors. For purposes of the foregoing sentence,
"Employees" shall include prospective Employees to whom Options are granted in
connection with written offers of employment with the Participating Company
Group, and "Consultants" shall include prospective Consultants to whom Options
are granted in connection with written offers of engagement with the
Participating Company Group. Eligible persons may be granted more than



                                       5
<PAGE>


one (1) Option.

          5.2  OPTION GRANT RESTRICTIONS. Any person who is not an Employee on
the effective date of the grant of an Option to such person may be granted only
a Nonstatutory Stock Option. An Incentive Stock Option granted to a prospective
Employee upon the condition that such person become an Employee shall be deemed
granted effective on the date such person commences service with a Participating
Company, with an exercise price determined as of such date in accordance with
Section 6.1.

          5.3  FAIR MARKET VALUE LIMITATION. To the extent that the aggregate
Fair Market Value of stock with respect to which options designated as Incentive
Stock Options are exercisable by an Optionee for the first time during any
calendar year (under all stock option plans of the Participating Company Group,
including the Plan) exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), the portion
of such options which exceeds such amount shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock
Options. For purposes of this Section 5.3, options designated as Incentive Stock
Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and
the Fair Market Value of stock shall be determined as of the time the option
with respect to such stock is granted. If the Code is amended to provide for a
different limitation from that set forth in this Section 5.3, such different
limitation shall be deemed incorporated herein effective as of the date and with
respect to such Options as required or permitted by such amendment to the Code.
If an Option is treated as an Incentive Stock Option in part and as a
Nonstatutory Stock Option in part by reason of the limitation set forth in this
Section 5.3, the Optionee may designate which portion of such Option the
Optionee is exercising and may request that separate certificates representing
each such portion be issued upon the exercise of the Option. In the absence of
such designation, the Optionee shall be deemed to have exercised the Incentive
Stock Option portion of the Option first.

     6.   TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS. Options shall be evidenced by Option
Agreements specifying the number of shares of Stock covered thereby, in such
form as the Board shall from time to time establish. Option Agreements may
incorporate all or any of the terms of the Plan by reference and shall comply
with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:

          6.1  EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price for each Option shall be
established in the sole discretion of the Board; provided, however, that (a) the
exercise price per share for an Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than
the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the effective date of grant of the
Option, (b) the exercise price per share for a Nonstatutory Stock Option shall
be not less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of a share
of Stock on the effective date of grant of the Option and (c) no Incentive Stock
Option granted to a Ten Percent Owner Optionee shall have an exercise price per
share less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a
share of Stock on the effective date of grant of the Option. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, an Option (whether an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock
Option) may be granted with an exercise price lower than the minimum exercise
price set forth above if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or
substitution for another option in a manner qualifying under the provisions of
Section 424(a) of the Code.

          6.2  EXERCISE PERIOD. Options shall be exercisable at such time or
times, or



                                       6
<PAGE>


upon such event or events, and subject to such terms, conditions,
performance criteria, and restrictions as shall be determined by the Board and
set forth in the Option Agreement evidencing such Option; provided, however,
that (a) no Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of
ten (10) years after the effective date of grant of such Option, (b) no
Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Owner Optionee shall be
exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years after the effective date of
grant of such Option, and (c) no Option granted to a prospective Employee or
prospective Consultant may become exercisable prior to the date on which such
person commences service with a Participating Company.

          6.3  PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE.

               (a)  FORMS OF CONSIDERATION AUTHORIZED. Except as otherwise
provided below, payment of the exercise price for the number of shares of Stock
being purchased pursuant to any Option shall be made (i) in cash, by check, or
cash equivalent, (ii) by tender to the Company of shares of Stock owned by the
Optionee having a Fair Market Value (as determined by the Company without regard
to any restrictions on transferability applicable to such stock by reason of
federal or state securities laws or agreements with an underwriter for the
Company) not less than the exercise price, (iii) by the assignment of the
proceeds of a sale or loan with respect to some or all of the shares being
acquired upon the exercise of the Option (including, without limitation, through
an exercise complying with the provisions of Regulation T as promulgated from
time to time by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) (a
"CASHLESS EXERCISE"), (iv) by the Optionee's promissory note in a form approved
by the Company, (v) by such other consideration as may be approved by the Board
from time to time to the extent permitted by applicable law, or (vi) by any
combination thereof. The Board may at any time or from time to time, by adoption
of or by amendment to the standard forms of Option Agreement described in
Section 7, or by other means, grant Options which do not permit all of the
foregoing forms of consideration to be used in payment of the exercise price or
which otherwise restrict one or more forms of consideration.

               (b)  TENDER OF STOCK. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option
may not be exercised by tender to the Company of shares of Stock to the extent
such tender of Stock would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law,
regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company's stock.
Unless otherwise provided by the Board, an Option may not be exercised by tender
to the Company of shares of Stock unless such shares either have been owned by
the Optionee for more than six (6) months or were not acquired, directly or
indirectly, from the Company.

               (c)  CASHLESS EXERCISE. The Company reserves, at any and all
times, the right, in the Company's sole and absolute discretion, to establish,
decline to approve or terminate any program or procedures for the exercise of
Options by means of a Cashless Exercise.

               (d)  PAYMENT BY PROMISSORY NOTE. No promissory note shall be
permitted if the exercise of an Option using a promissory note would be a
violation of any law. Any permitted promissory note shall be on such terms as
the Board shall determine at the time the Option is granted. The Board shall
have the authority to permit or require the Optionee to secure any promissory
note used to exercise an Option with the shares of Stock acquired upon



                                       7
<PAGE>


the exercise of the Option or with other collateral acceptable to the Company.
Unless otherwise provided by the Board, if the Company at any time is subject to
the regulations promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System or any other governmental entity affecting the extension of credit in
connection with the Company's securities, any promissory note shall comply with
such applicable regulations, and the Optionee shall pay the unpaid principal and
accrued interest, if any, to the extent necessary to comply with such applicable
regulations.

          6.4  TAX WITHHOLDING. The Company shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to deduct from the shares of Stock issuable upon the exercise of an
Option, or to accept from the Optionee the tender of, a number of whole shares
of Stock having a Fair Market Value, as determined by the Company, equal to all
or any part of the federal, state, local and foreign taxes, if any, required by
law to be withheld by the Participating Company Group with respect to such
Option or the shares acquired upon the exercise thereof. Alternatively or in
addition, in its sole discretion, the Company shall have the right to require
the Optionee, through payroll withholding, cash payment or otherwise, including
by means of a Cashless Exercise, to make adequate provision for any such tax
withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group arising in connection
with the Option or the shares acquired upon the exercise thereof. The Company
shall have no obligation to deliver shares of Stock or to release shares of
Stock from an escrow established pursuant to the Option Agreement until the
Participating Company Group's tax withholding obligations have been satisfied by
the Optionee.

     7.   STANDARD FORMS OF OPTION AGREEMENT.

          7.1  INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. Unless otherwise provided by the Board
at the time the Option is granted, an Option designated as an "Incentive Stock
Option" shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in the form of Immediately Exercisable Incentive Stock Option Agreement adopted
by the Board concurrently with its adoption of the Plan and as amended from time
to time.

          7.2  NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS. Unless otherwise provided by the
Board at the time the Option is granted, an Option designated as a "Nonstatutory
Stock Option" shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in the form of Immediately Exercisable Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement
adopted by the Board concurrently with its adoption of the Plan and as amended
from time to time.

          7.3  STANDARD TERM OF OPTIONS. Except as otherwise provided in Section
6.2 or by the Board in the grant of an Option, any Option granted hereunder
shall have a term of ten (10) years from the effective date of grant of the
Option.

          7.4  AUTHORITY TO VARY TERMS. The Board shall have the authority from
time to time to vary the terms of any of the standard forms of Option Agreement
described in this Section 7 either in connection with the grant or amendment of
an individual Option or in connection with the authorization of a new standard
form or forms; provided, however, that the terms and conditions of any such new,
revised or amended standard form or forms of Option Agreement are not
inconsistent with the terms of the Plan. Such authority shall include, but not
by way of limitation, the authority to grant Options which are not immediately
exercisable.

     8.   TRANSFER OF CONTROL.

          8.1  DEFINITIONS.

               (a)  An "OWNERSHIP CHANGE EVENT" shall be deemed to have occurred
                    if any of the following occurs with respect to the Company:

                    (i)  the direct or indirect sale or exchange in a single or
series of related transactions by the stockholders of the Company of more than
fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Company;

                    (ii)  a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a
party;

                    (iii) the sale, exchange, or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

                    (iv)  a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

               (b)  A "TRANSFER OF CONTROL" shall mean an Ownership Change Event
or a series of related Ownership Change Events (collectively, the "TRANSACTION")
wherein the stockholders of the Company immediately before the Transaction do
not retain immediately after the Transaction, in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership of shares of the Company's voting stock
immediately before the Transaction, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of
more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the
outstanding voting stock of the Company or the corporation or corporations to
which the assets of the Company were transferred (the "TRANSFEREE
CORPORATION(S)"), as the case may be. For purposes of the preceding sentence,
indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest
resulting from ownership of the voting stock of one or more corporations which,
as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the Transferee
Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or more
subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine whether
multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or multiple
Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final,
binding and conclusive.



                                       9

          8.2  EFFECT OF TRANSFER OF CONTROL ON OPTIONS. In the event of a
Transfer of Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing
corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the "ACQUIRING
CORPORATION"), may either assume the Company's rights and obligations under
outstanding Options or substitute for outstanding Options substantially
equivalent options for the Acquiring Corporation's stock. Any Options which are
neither assumed or substituted for by the Acquiring Corporation in connection
with the Transfer of Control nor exercised as of the date of the Transfer of
Control shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the date of
the Transfer of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares acquired upon
exercise of an Option prior to the Transfer of Control and any consideration
received pursuant to the Transfer of Control with respect to such shares shall
continue to be subject to all applicable provisions of the Option Agreement
evidencing such Option except as otherwise provided in such Option Agreement.
Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the corporation the stock of
which is subject to the outstanding Options immediately prior to an Ownership
Change Event described in Section 8.1(a)(i) constituting a Transfer of Control
is the surviving or continuing corporation and immediately after such Ownership
Change Event less than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of
its voting stock is held by another corporation or by other corporations that
are members of an affiliated group within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the
Code without regard to the provisions of Section 1504(b) of the Code, the
outstanding Options shall not terminate unless the Board otherwise provides in
its sole discretion.

     9.   PROVISION OF INFORMATION. Each Optionee shall be given access to
information concerning the Company equivalent to that information generally made
available to the Company's common stockholders.

     10.  NONTRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. During the lifetime of the Optionee, an
Option shall be exercisable only by the Optionee or the Optionee's guardian or
legal representative. No Option shall be assignable or transferable by the
Optionee, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

     11.  INDEMNIFICATION. In addition to such other rights of indemnification
as they may have as members of the Board or officers or employees of the
Participating Company Group, members of the Board and any officers or employees
of the Participating Company Group to whom authority to act for the Board is
delegated shall be indemnified by the Company against all reasonable expenses,
including attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily incurred in connection with
the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal
therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action
taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan, or any right
granted hereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof
(provided such settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by
the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such action,
suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it shall be
adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding that such person is liable for gross
negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct in duties; provided, however,
that within sixty (60) days after the institution of such action, suit or
proceeding, such person shall offer to the Company, in writing, the opportunity
at its own expense to handle and defend the same.

     12.  TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT OF PLAN. The Board may terminate or amend the
Plan at any time. However, subject to changes in the law or other legal
requirements that would permit otherwise, without the approval of the Company's
stockholders, there shall be (a) no increase in the maximum aggregate number of
shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan (except by operation of the
provisions of Section 4.2), (b) no change in the class of persons eligible to
receive Incentive Stock Options, and (c) no expansion in the class of persons
eligible to receive Nonstatutory Stock Options. In any event, no termination or
amendment of the Plan may adversely affect any then outstanding Option or any
unexercised portion thereof, without the consent of the Optionee, unless such
termination or amendment is required to enable an Option designated as an
Incentive Stock Option to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option or is necessary
to comply with any applicable law or government regulation.

     13.  CONTINUATION OF INITIAL PLAN AS TO OUTSTANDING OPTIONS. Any other
provision of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, the terms of the Initial
Plan shall remain in effect and apply to all Options granted pursuant to the
Initial Plan.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Secretary of the Company certifies that
the foregoing Puma Technology, Inc. Amended and Restated 1993 Stock Option Plan
was duly adopted by the Board on August ___, 1996 and amended by the Board on
February 22, 2000 and amended by the Board on August 22, 2000.

Participating Company for which the Optionee renders such Service, provided that
there is no interruption or termination of the Optionee's Service. The
Optionee's Service shall be deemed to have terminated either upon an actual

ceased to be an Employee (other than by reason of death or a permanent and total

          1.2  CONSTRUCTION. Captions and titles contained herein are for
convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any
provision of this Option Agreement. Except when otherwise indicated by the
context, the singular shall include the plural, the plural shall include the
singular, and the term "or" shall include the conjunctive as well as the
disjunctive.

     2.   TAX CONSEQUENCES.

          2.1  TAX STATUS OF OPTION. This Option is intended to be an incentive
stock option within the meaning of Section 422(b) of the Code (an "INCENTIVE
STOCK OPTION"), but the Company does not represent or warrant that this Option
qualifies as such. The Optionee should consult with the Optionee's own tax
advisor regarding the tax effects of this Option and the requirements necessary
to obtain favorable income tax treatment under Section 422 of the Code,
including, but not limited to, holding period requirements. (NOTE: If the
aggregate Exercise Price of the Option (that is, the Exercise Price multiplied
by the Number of Option Shares) plus the aggregate exercise price of any other
Incentive Stock Options held by the Optionee (whether granted pursuant to the
Plan or any other stock option plan of the Participating Company Group) is
greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), the Optionee should
contact the Chief Financial Officer of the Company to ascertain whether the
entire Option qualifies as an Incentive Stock Option.)

          2.2  ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) OF THE CODE. If the Optionee
exercises this Option to purchase shares of Stock that are both nontransferable
and subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the Optionee understands that
the Optionee should consult with the Optionee's tax advisor regarding the
advisability of filing with the Internal Revenue Service an election under
Section 83(b) of the Code, which must be filed no later than thirty (30) days
after the date on which the Optionee exercises the Option. Shares acquired upon
exercise of the Option are nontransferable and subject to a substantial risk of
forfeiture if, for example, (a) they are unvested and are subject to a right of
the Company to repurchase such shares at the Optionee's original purchase price
if the Optionee's Service terminates, or (b) the Optionee is subject to a
restriction on transfer to comply with "Pooling-of-Interests Accounting" rules.
Failure to file an election under Section 83(b), if appropriate, may result in
adverse tax consequences to the Optionee. The Optionee acknowledges that the
Optionee has been advised to consult with a tax advisor prior to the exercise of
the Option regarding the tax consequences to the Optionee of the exercise of the
Option. AN ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) MUST BE FILED WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER THE
DATE ON WHICH THE OPTIONEE PURCHASES SHARES. THIS TIME PERIOD CANNOT BE
EXTENDED. THE OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT TIMELY FILING OF A SECTION 83(b)
ELECTION IS THE OPTIONEE'S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY, EVEN IF THE OPTIONEE REQUESTS
THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVE TO FILE SUCH ELECTION ON HIS OR HER BEHALF.

     3.   ADMINISTRATION. All questions of interpretation concerning this Option
Agreement shall be determined by the Board, including any duly appointed
Committee of the



                                       4
<PAGE>


Board. All determinations by the Board shall be final and binding upon all
persons having an interest in the Option. Any officer of a Participating Company
shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Company with respect to any
matter, right, obligation, or election which is the responsibility of or which
is allocated to the Company herein, provided the officer has apparent authority
with respect to such matter, right, obligation, or election.

     4.   EXERCISE OF THE OPTION.


          4.1  RIGHT TO EXERCISE.

               (a)  Except as otherwise provided herein, the Option shall be
exercisable on and after the Initial Exercise Date and prior to the termination
of the Option (as provided in Section 6) in an amount not to exceed the Number
of Option Shares less the number of shares previously acquired upon exercise of
the Option, subject to the Optionee's agreement that any shares purchased upon
exercise are subject to the Company's repurchase rights set forth in Section 11.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Section 4.1(b), the
aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock with respect to which the
Optionee may exercise the Option for the first time during any calendar year,
when added to the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares subject to any other
options designated as Incentive Stock Options granted to the Optionee under all
stock option plans of the Participating Company Group prior to the Date of
Option Grant with respect to which such options are exercisable for the first
time during the same calendar year, shall not exceed One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000). For purposes of the preceding sentence, options designated
as Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which
they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of shares of stock shall be
determined as of the time the option with respect to such shares is granted.
Such limitation on exercise shall be referred to in this Option Agreement as the
"ISO EXERCISE LIMITATION." If Section 422 of the Code is amended to provide for
a different limitation from that set forth in this Section 4.1(a), the ISO
Exercise Limitation shall be deemed amended effective as of the date required or
permitted by such amendment to the Code. The ISO Exercise Limitation shall
terminate upon the earlier of (i) the Optionee's termination of Service, (ii)
the day immediately prior to the effective date of a Transfer of Control in
which the Option is not assumed or substituted for by the Acquiring Corporation
as provided in Section 8, or (iii) the day ten (10) days prior to the Option
Expiration Date. Upon such termination of the ISO Exercise Limitation, the
Option shall be deemed a nonstatutory stock option to the extent of the number
of shares subject to the Option which would otherwise exceed the ISO Exercise
Limitation.

               (b)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Option
Agreement, if compliance with the ISO Exercise Limitation as set forth in
Section 4.1(a) will result in the exercisability of any Vested Shares (as
defined in Section 11.2) being delayed more than thirty (30) days beyond the
date such shares become Vested Shares (the "VESTING DATE"), the Option shall be
deemed to be two (2) options. The first option shall be for the maximum portion
of the Number of Option Shares that can comply with the ISO Exercise Limitation
without causing the Option to be unexercisable in the aggregate as to Vested
Shares on the Vesting Date for such shares. The second option, which shall not
be treated as an Incentive Stock Option as described in section 422(b) of the
Code, shall be for the balance of the Number of Option Shares; that is, those
such shares which, on the respective Vesting Date for such shares, would be
unexercisable



                                       5
<PAGE>


if included in the first option and thereby made subject to the ISO Exercise
Limitation. Shares treated as subject to the second option shall be exercisable
on the same terms and at the same time as set forth in this Option Agreement;
provided, however, that (i) the second sentence of Section 4.1(a) shall not
apply to the second option and (ii) each such share shall become a Vested Share
on the Vesting Date on which such share must first be allocated to the second
option pursuant to the preceding sentence. Unless the Optionee specifically
elects to the contrary in the Optionee's written notice of exercise, the first
option shall be deemed to be exercised first to the maximum possible extent and
then the second option shall be deemed to be exercised.

               4.2  METHOD OF EXERCISE. Exercise of the Option shall be by
written notice to the Company which must state the election to exercise the
Option, the number of whole shares of Stock for which the Option is being
exercised and such other representations and agreements as to the Optionee's
investment intent with respect to such shares as may be required pursuant to the
provisions of this Option Agreement. The written notice must be signed by the
Optionee and must be delivered in person, by certified or registered mail,
return receipt requested, by confirmed facsimile transmission, or by such other
means as the Company may permit, to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company,
or other authorized representative of the Participating Company Group, prior to
the termination of the Option as set forth in Section 6, accompanied by (i) full
payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock being
purchased and (ii) an executed copy, if required herein, of the then current
form of escrow agreement referenced below. The Option shall be deemed to be
exercised upon receipt by the Company of such written notice, the aggregate
Exercise Price, and, if required by the Company, such executed agreement.

               4.3  PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE.

                    (a)  FORMS OF CONSIDERATION AUTHORIZED. Except as otherwise
provided below, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares
of Stock for which the Option is being exercised shall be made (i) in cash, by
check, or cash equivalent, (ii) by tender to the Company of whole shares of
Stock owned by the Optionee having a Fair Market Value (as determined by the
Company without regard to any restrictions on transferability applicable to such
stock by reason of federal or state securities laws or agreements with an
underwriter for the Company) not less than the aggregate Exercise Price, (iii)
by means of a Cashless Exercise, as defined in Section 4.3(c), or (iv) by any
combination of the foregoing.

                    (b)  TENDER OF STOCK. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company of shares of Stock to the
extent such tender of Stock would constitute a violation of the provisions of
any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company's
stock. The Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company of shares of
Stock unless such shares either have been owned by the Optionee for more than
six (6) months or were not acquired, directly or indirectly, from the Company.

                    (c)  CASHLESS EXERCISE. A "CASHLESS EXERCISE" means the
assignment in a form acceptable to the Company of the proceeds of a sale or loan
with respect to some or all of the shares of Stock acquired upon the exercise of
the Option pursuant to a program or procedure approved by the Company
(including, without limitation, through an exercise



                                       6
<PAGE>


complying with the provisions of Regulation T as promulgated from time to time
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). The Company reserves,
at any and all times, the right, in the Company's sole and absolute discretion,
to decline to approve or terminate any such program or procedure.

          4.4  TAX WITHHOLDING. At the time the Option is exercised, in whole or
in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the Optionee
hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the
Optionee, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for (including by
means of a Cashless Exercise to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums
required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding
obligations of the Participating Company Group, if any, which arise in
connection with the Option, including, without limitation, obligations arising
upon (i) the exercise, in whole or in part, of the Option, (ii) the transfer, in
whole or in part, of any shares acquired upon exercise of the Option, (iii) the
operation of any law or regulation providing for the imputation of interest, or
(iv) the lapsing of any restriction with respect to any shares acquired upon
exercise of the Option. The Optionee is cautioned that the Option is not
exercisable unless the tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company
Group are satisfied. Accordingly, the Optionee may not be able to exercise the
Option when desired even though the Option is vested, and the Company shall have
no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares or release such shares from
any escrow provided for herein.

          4.5  CERTIFICATE REGISTRATION. Except in the event the Exercise Price
is paid by means of a Cashless Exercise, the certificate for the shares as to
which the Option is exercised shall be registered in the name of the Optionee,
or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Optionee.

          4.6  RESTRICTIONS ON GRANT OF THE OPTION AND ISSUANCE OF SHARES. The
grant of the Option and the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise of the
Option shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of
federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. The Option may
not be exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise would
constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities
laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or
market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, the Option
may not be exercised unless (i) a registration statement under the Securities
Act shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the
shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (ii) in the opinion of legal
counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be
issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. THE OPTIONEE IS CAUTIONED THAT
THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED.
ACCORDINGLY, THE OPTIONEE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED
EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS VESTED. Questions concerning this restriction should
be directed to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The inability of the
Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if
any, deemed by the Company's legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful
issuance and sale of any shares subject to the Option shall relieve the Company
of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to
which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to
the exercise of the Option, the



                                       7
<PAGE>


Company may require the Optionee to satisfy any qualifications that may be
necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or
regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as
may be requested by the Company.

          4.7  FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to issue
fractional shares upon the exercise of the Option.

     5.   NONTRANSFERABILITY OF THE OPTION. The Option may be exercised during
the lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee or the Optionee's guardian or
legal representative and may not be assigned or transferred in any manner except
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Following the death of the
Optionee, the Option, to the extent provided in Section 7, may be exercised by
the Optionee's legal representative or by any person empowered to do so under
the deceased Optionee's will or under the then applicable laws of descent and
distribution.

     6.   TERMINATION OF THE OPTION. The Option shall terminate and may no
longer be exercised on the first to occur of (a) the Option Expiration Date, (b)
the last date for exercising the Option following termination of the Optionee's
Service as described in Section 7, or (c) a Transfer of Control to the extent
provided in Section 8.

     7.   EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE.

          7.1  OPTION EXERCISABILITY.

               (a)  DISABILITY. If the Optionee's Service with the Participating
Company Group is terminated because of the Disability of the Optionee, the
Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the
Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee (or the
Optionee's guardian or legal representative) at any time prior to the expiration
of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated,
but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.

               (b)  DEATH. If the Optionee's Service with the Participating
Company Group is terminated because of the death of the Optionee, the Option, to
the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the Optionee's
Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee's legal representative or
other person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by reason of the
Optionee's death at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after
the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, but in any event no later
than the Option Expiration Date. The Optionee's Service shall be deemed to have
terminated on account of death if the Optionee dies within three (3) months
after the Optionee's termination of Service.

               (c)  OTHER TERMINATION OF SERVICE. If the Optionee's Service with
the Participating Company Group terminates for any reason except Disability or
death, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable by the Optionee on
the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the
Optionee within three (3) months (or such other longer period of time as
determined by the Board, in its sole discretion) after the date on which the
Optionee's Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option
Expiration Date.

               7.2  ADDITIONAL LIMITATION ON OPTION EXERCISE. Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 7.1, the Option may not be exercised after the
Optionee's termination of Service to the extent that the shares to be acquired
upon exercise of the Option would be subject to the Unvested Share Repurchase
Option as provided in Section 11.

               7.3  EXTENSION IF EXERCISE PREVENTED BY LAW. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the exercise of the Option within the applicable time periods set
forth in Section 7.1 is prevented by the provisions of Section 4.6, the Option
shall remain exercisable until three (3) months after the date the Optionee is
notified by the Company that the Option is exercisable, but in any event no
later than the Option Expiration Date. The Company makes no representation as to
the tax consequences of any such delayed exercise. The Optionee should consult
with the Optionee's own tax advisor as to the tax consequences to the Optionee
of any such delayed exercise.

               7.4  EXTENSION IF OPTIONEE SUBJECT TO SECTION 16(b).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a sale within the applicable time periods set
forth in Section 7.1 of shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option would
subject the Optionee to suit under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Option
shall remain exercisable until the earliest to occur of (i) the tenth (10th) day
following the date on which a sale of such shares by the Optionee would no
longer be subject to such suit, (ii) the one hundred and ninetieth (190th) day
after the Optionee's termination of Service, or (iii) the Option Expiration
Date. The Company makes no representation as to the tax consequences of any such
delayed exercise. The Optionee should consult with the Optionee's own tax
advisors as to the tax consequences to the Optionee of any such delayed
exercise.

               7.5  LEAVE OF ABSENCE. For purposes of Section 7.1, the
Optionee's Service with the Participating Company Group shall not be deemed to
terminate if the Optionee takes any military leave, sick leave, or other bona
fide leave of absence approved by the Company of ninety (90) days or less. In
the event of a leave of absence in excess of ninety (90) days, the Optionee's
Service shall be deemed to terminate on the ninety-first (91st) day of such
leave unless the Optionee's right to return to Service with the Participating
Company Group remains guaranteed by statute or contract. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, unless otherwise designated by the Company (or required by law), a
leave of absence shall not be treated as Service for purposes of determining the
Optionee's Vested Ratio.

     8.   TRANSFER OF CONTROL.

          8.1  DEFINITIONS.

               (a)  An "OWNERSHIP CHANGE EVENT" shall be deemed to have occurred
if any of the following occurs with respect to the Company:

                    (i)   the direct or indirect sale or exchange in a single or
series of related transactions by the stockholders of the Company of more than
fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Company;



                                       9
<PAGE>


                    (ii)  a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a
party;

                    (iii) the sale, exchange, or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

                    (iv)  a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

               (b)  A "TRANSFER OF CONTROL" shall mean an Ownership Change Event
or a series of related Ownership Change Events (collectively, the "TRANSACTION")
wherein the stockholders of the Company immediately before the Transaction do
not retain immediately after the Transaction, in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership of shares of the Company's voting stock
immediately before the Transaction, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of
more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the
outstanding voting stock of the Company or the corporation or corporations to
which the assets of the Company were transferred (the "TRANSFEREE
CORPORATION(S)"), as the case may be. For purposes of the preceding sentence,
indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest
resulting from ownership of the voting stock of one or more corporations which,
as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the Transferee
Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or more
subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine whether
multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or multiple
Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final,
binding and conclusive.

          8.2  EFFECT OF TRANSFER OF CONTROL ON OPTION. In the event of a
Transfer of Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing
corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the "ACQUIRING
CORPORATION"), may either assume the Company's rights and obligations under the
Option or substitute for the Option a substantially equivalent option for the
Acquiring Corporation's stock. The Option shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding effective as of the date of the Transfer of Control to the extent
that the Option is neither assumed or substituted for by the Acquiring
Corporation in connection with the Transfer of Control nor exercised as of the
date of the Transfer of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares acquired
upon exercise of the Option prior to the Transfer of Control and any
consideration received pursuant to the Transfer of Control with respect to such
shares shall continue to be subject to all applicable provisions of this Option
Agreement except as otherwise provided herein. Furthermore, notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the corporation the stock of which is subject to the Option
immediately prior to an Ownership Change Event described in Section 8.1(a)(i)
constituting a Transfer of Control is the surviving or continuing corporation
and immediately after such Ownership Change Event less than fifty percent (50%)
of the total combined voting power of its voting stock is held by another
corporation or by other corporations that are members of an affiliated group
within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the Code without regard to the
provisions of Section 1504(b) of the Code, the Option shall not terminate unless
the Board otherwise provides in its sole discretion.

     9.   ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. In the event of any
stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination,
reclassification, or similar



                                       10
<PAGE>


change in the capital structure of the Company, appropriate adjustments shall be
made in the number, Exercise Price and class of shares of stock subject to the
Option. If a majority of the shares which are of the same class as the shares
that are subject to the Option are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise
become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) shares of another
corporation (the "NEW SHARES"), the Board may unilaterally amend the Option to
provide that the Option is exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such
amendment, the Number of Option Shares and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted
in a fair and equitable manner, as determined by the Board, in its sole
discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any fractional share resulting from
an adjustment pursuant to this Section 9 shall be rounded up or down to the
nearest whole number, as determined by the Board, and in no event may the
Exercise Price be decreased to an amount less than the par value, if any, of the
stock subject to the Option. The adjustments determined by the Board pursuant to
this Section 9 shall be final, binding and conclusive.

     10.  RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT. The Optionee shall
have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by the Option
until the date of the issuance of a certificate for the shares for which the
Option has been exercised (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of
the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No
adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which
the record date is prior to the date such certificate is issued, except as
provided in Section 9. Nothing in this Option Agreement shall confer upon the
Optionee any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or
interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to
terminate the Optionee's Service as an Employee or Consultant, as the case may
be, at any time.

     11.  UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION.

          11.1 GRANT OF UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION. In the event the
Optionee's Service with the Participating Company Group is terminated for any
reason or no reason, with or without cause, or if the Optionee, the Optionee's
legal representative, or other holder of shares acquired upon exercise of the
Option attempts to sell, exchange, transfer, pledge, or otherwise dispose of
(other than pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) any shares acquired upon
exercise of the Option which exceed the Vested Shares as defined in Section 11.2
below (the "UNVESTED SHARES"), the Company shall have the right to repurchase
the Unvested Shares under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
this Section 11 (the "UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION").

          11.2 VESTED SHARES AND UNVESTED SHARES DEFINED. The "VESTED SHARES"
shall mean, on any given date, a number of shares of Stock equal to the Number
of Option Shares multiplied by the Vested Ratio determined as of such date and
rounded down to the nearest whole share. On such given date, the "UNVESTED
SHARES" shall mean the number of shares of Stock acquired upon exercise of the
Option which exceed the Vested Shares determined as of such date.

          11.3 EXERCISE OF UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION. The Company may
exercise the Unvested Share Repurchase Option by written notice delivered
personally or



                                       11
<PAGE>


forwarded by first class mail to the Optionee within sixty (60) days after (a)
termination of the Optionee's Service (or exercise of the Option, if later) or
(b) the Company has received notice of the attempted disposition of Unvested
Shares. If the Company fails to give notice within such sixty (60) day period,
the Unvested Share Repurchase Option shall terminate unless the Company and the
Optionee have extended the time for the exercise of the Unvested Share
Repurchase Option. The Unvested Share Repurchase Option must be exercised, if at
all, for all of the Unvested Shares, except as the Company and the Optionee
otherwise agree.

          11.4 PAYMENT FOR SHARES AND RETURN OF SHARES TO COMPANY. The purchase
price per share being repurchased by the Company shall be an amount equal to the
Optionee's original cost per share, as adjusted pursuant to Section 9 (the
"REPURCHASE PRICE"). The Company shall pay the aggregate Repurchase Price to the
Optionee in cash within thirty (30) days after the date of personal delivery or
mailing of the written notice of the Company's exercise of the Unvested Share
Repurchase Option. For purposes of the foregoing, cancellation of any
indebtedness of the Optionee to any Participating Company shall be treated as
payment to the Optionee in cash to the extent of the unpaid principal and any
accrued interest canceled. The shares being repurchased shall be delivered to
the Company by the Optionee at the same time as the delivery of the Repurchase
Price to the Optionee.

          11.5 ASSIGNMENT OF UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION. The Company shall
have the right to assign the Unvested Share Repurchase Option at any time,
whether or not such option is then exercisable, to one or more persons as may be
selected by the Company.

          11.6 OWNERSHIP CHANGE EVENT. Upon the occurrence of an Ownership
Change Event, any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other
property to which the Optionee is entitled by reason of the Optionee's ownership
of Unvested Shares shall be immediately subject to the Unvested Share Repurchase
Option and included in the terms "Stock" and "Unvested Shares" for all purposes
of the Unvested Share Repurchase Option with the same force and effect as the
Unvested Shares immediately prior to the Ownership Change Event. While the
aggregate Repurchase Price shall remain the same after such Ownership Change
Event, the Repurchase Price per Unvested Share upon exercise of the Unvested
Share Repurchase Option following such Ownership Change Event shall be adjusted
as appropriate. For purposes of determining the Vested Ratio following an
Ownership Change Event, credited Service shall include all Service with any
corporation which is a Participating Company at the time the Service is
rendered, whether or not such corporation is a Participating Company both before
and after the Ownership Change Event.

     12.  ESCROW.

          12.1 ESTABLISHMENT OF ESCROW. To ensure that shares subject to the
Unvested Share Repurchase Option will be available for repurchase, the Company
may require the Optionee to deposit the certificate evidencing the shares which
the Optionee purchases upon exercise of the Option with an escrow agent
designated by the Company under the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement
approved by the Company. If the Company does not require such deposit as a
condition of exercise of the Option, the Company reserves the right at any time
to require the Optionee to so deposit the certificate in escrow. Upon the
occurrence of an Ownership Change Event or a change, as described in Section 9,
in the character or amount of any of the outstanding stock of the corporation
the stock of which is subject to the provisions of this Option Agreement, any
and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property to which the
Optionee is entitled by reason of the Optionee's ownership of shares of Stock
acquired upon exercise of the Option that remain, following such Ownership
Change Event or change described in Section 9, subject to the Unvested Share
Repurchase Option shall be immediately subject to the escrow to the same extent
as such shares of Stock immediately before such event. The Company shall bear
the expenses of the escrow.

          12.2 DELIVERY OF SHARES TO OPTIONEE. As soon as practicable after the
expiration of the Unvested Share Repurchase Option, but not more frequently than
once each calendar year, the escrow agent shall deliver to the Optionee the
shares and any other property no longer subject to such restriction.

          12.3 NOTICES AND PAYMENTS. In the event the shares and any other
property held in escrow are subject to the Company's exercise of the Unvested
Share Repurchase Option, the notices required to be given to the Optionee shall
be given to the escrow agent, and any payment required to be given to the
Optionee shall be given to the escrow agent. Within thirty (30) days after
payment by the Company, the escrow agent shall deliver the shares and any other
property which the Company has purchased to the Company and shall deliver the
payment received from the Company to the Optionee.

     13.  STOCK DISTRIBUTIONS SUBJECT TO OPTION AGREEMENT. If, from time to
time, there is any stock dividend, stock split or other change, as described in
Section 9, in the character or amount of any of the outstanding stock of the
corporation the stock of which is subject to the provisions of this Option
Agreement, then in such event any and all new, substituted or additional
securities to which the Optionee is entitled by reason of the Optionee's
ownership of the shares acquired upon exercise of the Option shall be
immediately subject to the Unvested Share Repurchase Option and with the same
force and effect as the shares subject to the Unvested Share Repurchase Option
immediately before such event.

     14.  NOTICE OF SALES UPON DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION. The Optionee shall
dispose of the shares acquired pursuant to the Option only in accordance with
the provisions of this Option Agreement. In addition, the Optionee shall
promptly notify the Chief Financial Officer of the Company if the Optionee
disposes of any of the shares acquired pursuant to the Option within one (1)
year after the date the Optionee exercises all or part of the Option or within
two (2) years after the Date of Option Grant. Until such time as the Optionee
disposes of such shares in a



                                       13
<PAGE>


manner consistent with the provisions of this Option Agreement, unless otherwise
expressly authorized by the Company, the Optionee shall hold all shares acquired
pursuant to the Option in the Optionee's name (and not in the name of any
nominee) for the one-year period immediately after the exercise of the Option
and the two-year period immediately after Date of Option Grant. At any time
during the one-year or two-year periods set forth above, the Company may place a
legend on any certificate representing shares acquired pursuant to the Option
requesting the transfer agent for the Company's stock to notify the Company of
any such transfers. The obligation of the Optionee to notify the Company of any
such transfer shall continue notwithstanding that a legend has been placed on
the certificate pursuant to the preceding sentence.

     15.  LEGENDS. The Company may at any time place legends referencing the
Unvested Share Repurchase Option and any applicable federal, state or foreign
securities law restrictions on all certificates representing shares of stock
subject to the provisions of this Option Agreement. The Optionee shall, at the
request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates
representing shares acquired pursuant to the Option in the possession of the
Optionee in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.

     16.  BINDING EFFECT. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth
herein, this Option Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.

     17.  TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT. The Board may terminate or amend the Plan or
the Option at any time; provided, however, that except as provided in Section
8.2 in connection with a Transfer of Control, no such termination or amendment
may adversely affect the Option or any unexercised portion hereof without the
consent of the Optionee unless such termination or amendment is necessary to
comply with any applicable law or government regulation or is required to enable
the Option to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. No amendment or addition to
this Option Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.

     18.  INTEGRATED AGREEMENT. This Option Agreement constitutes the entire
understanding and agreement of the Optionee and the Participating Company Group
with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and there are no
agreements, understandings, restrictions, representations, or warranties among
the Optionee and the Participating Company Group with respect to such subject
matter other than those as set forth or provided for herein. To the extent
contemplated herein, the provisions of this Option Agreement shall survive any
exercise of the Option and shall remain in full force and effect.

Director or a Consultant. The Optionee's Service shall not be deemed to have
terminated merely because of a change in the capacity in which the Optionee
renders Service to the Participating Company Group or a change in the
Participating Company for which the Optionee renders such Service, provided that
there is no interruption or termination of the Optionee's Service. The
Optionee's Service shall be deemed to have terminated either upon an actual
termination of Service or upon the corporation for which the Optionee performs
Service ceasing to be a Participating Company. Subject to the foregoing, the
Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether the Optionee's Service
has terminated and the effective date of such termination.

               (x)  "STOCK" means the common stock of the Company, as adjusted
from time to time in accordance with Section 9.

               (y)  "SUBSIDIARY CORPORATION" means any present or future
"subsidiary corporation" of the Company, as defined in Section 424(f) of the
Code.

          1.2  CONSTRUCTION. Captions and titles contained herein are for
convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any
provision of this Option Agreement. Except when otherwise indicated by the
context, the singular shall include the plural, the plural shall include the
singular, and the term "or" shall include the conjunctive as well as the
disjunctive.

     2.   TAX CONSEQUENCES.

          2.1  TAX STATUS OF OPTION. This Option is intended to be a
nonstatutory stock option and shall not be treated as an incentive stock option
within the meaning of Section 422(b) of the Code.

          2.2  ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) OF THE CODE. If the Optionee
exercises this Option to purchase shares of Stock that are both nontransferable
and subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the Optionee understands that
the Optionee should consult with the Optionee's tax advisor regarding the
advisability of filing with the Internal Revenue Service an election under
Section 83(b) of the Code, which must be filed no later than thirty (30) days
after the date on which the Optionee exercises the Option. Shares acquired upon
exercise of the Option are nontransferable and subject to a substantial risk of
forfeiture if, for example, (a) they are unvested and are subject to a right of
the Company to repurchase such shares at the Optionee's original purchase price
if the Optionee's Service terminates, or (b) the Optionee is subject to a
restriction on transfer to comply with "Pooling-of-Interests Accounting" rules.
Failure to file an election under Section 83(b), if appropriate, may result in
adverse tax consequences to the Optionee. The Optionee acknowledges that the
Optionee has been advised to consult with a tax advisor prior to the exercise of
the Option regarding the tax consequences to the Optionee of the exercise of the
Option. AN ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) MUST BE FILED WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER THE
DATE ON WHICH THE OPTIONEE PURCHASES SHARES. THIS TIME PERIOD CANNOT BE
EXTENDED. THE OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT TIMELY FILING OF A SECTION 83(b)
ELECTION IS THE OPTIONEE'S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY, EVEN IF THE OPTIONEE REQUESTS
THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVE TO FILE SUCH ELECTION ON HIS OR HER BEHALF.

     3.   ADMINISTRATION. All questions of interpretation concerning this Option
Agreement shall be determined by the Board, including any duly appointed
Committee of the Board. All determinations by the Board shall be final and
binding upon all persons having an interest in the Option. Any officer of a
Participating Company shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Company
with respect to any matter, right, obligation, or election which is the
responsibility of or which is allocated to the Company herein, provided the
officer has apparent authority with respect to such matter, right, obligation,
or election.

     4.   EXERCISE OF THE OPTION.

          4.1  RIGHT TO EXERCISE. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Option shall be exercisable on and after the Initial Exercise Date and prior to
the termination of the Option (as provided in Section 6) in an amount not to
exceed the Number of Option Shares less the number



                                       4
<PAGE>


of shares previously acquired upon exercise of the Option, subject to the
Optionee's agreement that any shares purchased upon exercise are subject to the
Company's repurchase rights set forth in Section 11.

          4.2  METHOD OF EXERCISE. Exercise of the Option shall be by written
notice to the Company which must state the election to exercise the Option, the
number of whole shares of Stock for which the Option is being exercised and such
other representations and agreements as to the Optionee's investment intent with
respect to such shares as may be required pursuant to the provisions of this
Option Agreement. The written notice must be signed by the Optionee and must be
delivered in person, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested,
by confirmed facsimile transmission, or by such other means as the Company may
permit, to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, or other authorized
representative of the Participating Company Group, prior to the termination of
the Option as set forth in Section 6, accompanied by (i) full payment of the
aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock being purchased and
(ii) an executed copy, if required herein, of the then current form of escrow
agreement referenced below. The Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon
receipt by the Company of such written notice, the aggregate Exercise Price,
and, if required by the Company, such executed agreement.

          4.3  PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE.

               (a)  FORMS OF CONSIDERATION AUTHORIZED. Except as otherwise
provided below, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares
of Stock for which the Option is being exercised shall be made (i) in cash, by
check, or cash equivalent, (ii) by tender to the Company of whole shares of
Stock owned by the Optionee having a Fair Market Value (as determined by the
Company without regard to any restrictions on transferability applicable to such
stock by reason of federal or state securities laws or agreements with an
underwriter for the Company) not less than the aggregate Exercise Price, (iii)
by means of a Cashless Exercise, as defined in Section 4.3(c), or (iv) by any
combination of the foregoing.

               (b)  TENDER OF STOCK. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Option
may not be exercised by tender to the Company of shares of Stock to the extent
such tender of Stock would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law,
regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company's stock. The
Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company of shares of Stock unless
such shares either have been owned by the Optionee for more than six (6) months
or were not acquired, directly or indirectly, from the Company.

               (c)  CASHLESS EXERCISE. A "CASHLESS EXERCISE" means the
assignment in a form acceptable to the Company of the proceeds of a sale or loan
with respect to some or all of the shares of Stock acquired upon the exercise of
the Option pursuant to a program or procedure approved by the Company
(including, without limitation, through an exercise complying with the
provisions of Regulation T as promulgated from time to time by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System). The Company reserves, at any and all
times, the right, in the Company's sole and absolute discretion, to decline to
approve or terminate any such program or procedure.



                                       5
<PAGE>


          4.4  TAX WITHHOLDING. At the time the Option is exercised, in whole or
in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the Optionee
hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the
Optionee, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for (including by
means of a Cashless Exercise to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums
required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding
obligations of the Participating Company Group, if any, which arise in
connection with the Option, including, without limitation, obligations arising
upon (i) the exercise, in whole or in part, of the Option, (ii) the transfer, in
whole or in part, of any shares acquired upon exercise of the Option, (iii) the
operation of any law or regulation providing for the imputation of interest, or
(iv) the lapsing of any restriction with respect to any shares acquired upon
exercise of the Option. The Optionee is cautioned that the Option is not
exercisable unless the tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company
Group are satisfied. Accordingly, the Optionee may not be able to exercise the
Option when desired even though the Option is vested, and the Company shall have
no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares or release such shares from
any escrow provided for herein.

          4.5  CERTIFICATE REGISTRATION. Except in the event the Exercise Price
is paid by means of a Cashless Exercise, the certificate for the shares as to
which the Option is exercised shall be registered in the name of the Optionee,
or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Optionee.

          4.6  RESTRICTIONS ON GRANT OF THE OPTION AND ISSUANCE OF SHARES. The
grant of the Option and the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise of the
Option shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of
federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. The Option may
not be exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise would
constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities
laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or
market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, the Option
may not be exercised unless (i) a registration statement under the Securities
Act shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the
shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (ii) in the opinion of legal
counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be
issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. THE OPTIONEE IS CAUTIONED THAT
THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED.
ACCORDINGLY, THE OPTIONEE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED
EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS VESTED. Questions concerning this restriction should
be directed to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The inability of the
Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if
any, deemed by the Company's legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful
issuance and sale of any shares subject to the Option shall relieve the Company
of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to
which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to
the exercise of the Option, the Company may require the Optionee to satisfy any
qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with
any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with
respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.

          4.7  FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to issue
fractional


                                       6
<PAGE>


shares upon the exercise of the Option.

     5.   NONTRANSFERABILITY OF THE OPTION. The Option may be exercised during
the lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee or the Optionee's guardian or
legal representative and may not be assigned or transferred in any manner except
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Following the death of the
Optionee, the Option, to the extent provided in Section 7, may be exercised by
the Optionee's legal representative or by any person empowered to do so under
the deceased Optionee's will or under the then applicable laws of descent and
distribution.

     6.   TERMINATION OF THE OPTION. The Option shall terminate and may no
longer be exercised on the first to occur of (a) the Option Expiration Date, (b)
the last date for exercising the Option following termination of the Optionee's
Service as described in Section 7, or (c) a Transfer of Control to the extent
provided in Section 8.

     7.   EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE.

          7.1  OPTION EXERCISABILITY.

               (a)  DISABILITY. If the Optionee's Service with the Participating
Company Group is terminated because of the Disability of the Optionee, the
Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the
Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee (or the
Optionee's guardian or legal representative) at any time prior to the expiration
of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated,
but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.

               (b)  DEATH. If the Optionee's Service with the Participating
Company Group is terminated because of the death of the Optionee, the Option, to
the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the Optionee's
Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee's legal representative or
other person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by reason of the
Optionee's death at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after
the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, but in any event no later
than the Option Expiration Date. The Optionee's Service shall be deemed to have
terminated on account of death if the Optionee dies within three (3) months
after the Optionee's termination of Service.

               (c)  OTHER TERMINATION OF SERVICE. If the Optionee's Service with
the Participating Company Group terminates for any reason except Disability or
death, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable by the Optionee on
the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the
Optionee within three (3) months (or such other longer period of time as
determined by the Board, in its sole discretion) after the date on which the
Optionee's Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option
Expiration Date.

          7.2  ADDITIONAL LIMITATION ON OPTION EXERCISE. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 7.1, the Option may not be exercised after the Optionee's
termination of Service to the extent that the shares to be acquired upon
exercise of the Option would be subject to the Unvested Share Repurchase Option
as provided in Section 11.



                                       7
<PAGE>


          7.3  EXTENSION IF EXERCISE PREVENTED BY LAW. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the exercise of the Option within the applicable time periods set
forth in Section 7.1 is prevented by the provisions of Section 4.6, the Option
shall remain exercisable until three (3) months after the date the Optionee is
notified by the Company that the Option is exercisable, but in any event no
later than the Option Expiration Date.

          7.4  EXTENSION IF OPTIONEE SUBJECT TO SECTION 16(b). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if a sale within the applicable time periods set forth in Section
7.1 of shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option would subject the
Optionee to suit under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Option shall
remain exercisable until the earliest to occur of (i) the tenth (10th) day
following the date on which a sale of such shares by the Optionee would no
longer be subject to such suit, (ii) the one hundred and ninetieth (190th) day
after the Optionee's termination of Service, or (iii) the Option Expiration
Date.

          7.5  LEAVE OF ABSENCE. For purposes of Section 7.1, the Optionee's
Service with the Participating Company Group shall not be deemed to terminate if
the Optionee takes any military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of
absence approved by the Company of ninety (90) days or less. In the event of a
leave of absence in excess of ninety (90) days, the Optionee's Service shall be
deemed to terminate on the ninety-first (91st) day of such leave unless the
Optionee's right to return to Service with the Participating Company Group
remains guaranteed by statute or contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless
otherwise designated by the Company (or required by law), a leave of absence
shall not be treated as Service for purposes of determining the Optionee's
Vested Ratio.

     8.   TRANSFER OF CONTROL.

          8.1  DEFINITIONS.

               (a)  An "OWNERSHIP CHANGE EVENT" shall be deemed to have occurred
if any of the following occurs with respect to the Company:

                    (i)   the direct or indirect sale or exchange in a single or
series of related transactions by the stockholders of the Company of more than
fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Company;

                    (ii)  a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a
party;

                    (iii) the sale, exchange, or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

                    (iv) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

               (b)  A "TRANSFER OF CONTROL" shall mean an Ownership Change Event
or a series of related Ownership Change Events (collectively, the "TRANSACTION")
wherein the stockholders of the Company immediately before the Transaction do
not retain immediately after



                                       8
<PAGE>


the Transaction, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of
shares of the Company's voting stock immediately before the Transaction, direct
or indirect beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total
combined voting power of the outstanding voting stock of the Company or the
corporation or corporations to which the assets of the Company were transferred
(the "TRANSFEREE CORPORATION(S)"), as the case may be. For purposes of the
preceding sentence, indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without
limitation, an interest resulting from ownership of the voting stock of one or
more corporations which, as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the
Transferee Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or
more subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine
whether multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or
multiple Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be
final, binding and conclusive.

          8.2  EFFECT OF TRANSFER OF CONTROL ON OPTION. In the event of a
Transfer of Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing
corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the "ACQUIRING
CORPORATION"), may either assume the Company's rights and obligations under the
Option or substitute for the Option a substantially equivalent option for the
Acquiring Corporation's stock. The Option shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding effective as of the date of the Transfer of Control to the extent
that the Option is neither assumed or substituted for by the Acquiring
Corporation in connection with the Transfer of Control nor exercised as of the
date of the Transfer of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares acquired
upon exercise of the Option prior to the Transfer of Control and any
consideration received pursuant to the Transfer of Control with respect to such
shares shall continue to be subject to all applicable provisions of this Option
Agreement except as otherwise provided herein. Furthermore, notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the corporation the stock of which is subject to the Option
immediately prior to an Ownership Change Event described in Section 8.1(a)(i)
constituting a Transfer of Control is the surviving or continuing corporation
and immediately after such Ownership Change Event less than fifty percent (50%)
of the total combined voting power of its voting stock is held by another
corporation or by other corporations that are members of an affiliated group
within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the Code without regard to the
provisions of Section 1504(b) of the Code, the Option shall not terminate unless
the Board otherwise provides in its sole discretion.

     9.   ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. In the event of any
stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination,
reclassification, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company,
appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number, Exercise Price and class of
shares of stock subject to the Option. If a majority of the shares which are of
the same class as the shares that are subject to the Option are exchanged for,
converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership
Change Event) shares of another corporation (the "NEW SHARES"), the Board may
unilaterally amend the Option to provide that the Option is exercisable for New
Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the Number of Option Shares and the
Exercise Price shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner, as determined
by the Board, in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 9 shall
be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number, as determined by the Board,
and in no event may the Exercise Price be decreased to an amount less than the
par value, if any, of the stock subject to



                                       9
<PAGE>


the Option. The adjustments determined by the Board pursuant to this Section 9
shall be final, binding and conclusive.

     10.  RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT. The Optionee shall
have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by the Option
until the date of the issuance of a certificate for the shares for which the
Option has been exercised (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of
the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No
adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which
the record date is prior to the date such certificate is issued, except as
provided in Section 9. Nothing in this Option Agreement shall confer upon the
Optionee any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or
interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to
terminate the Optionee's Service as an Employee or Consultant, as the case may
be, at any time.

     11.  UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION.

          11.1 GRANT OF UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION. In the event the
Optionee's Service with the Participating Company Group is terminated for any
reason or no reason, with or without cause, or if the Optionee, the Optionee's
legal representative, or other holder of shares acquired upon exercise of the
Option attempts to sell, exchange, transfer, pledge, or otherwise dispose of
(other than pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) any shares acquired upon
exercise of the Option which exceed the Vested Shares as defined in Section 11.2
below (the "UNVESTED SHARES"), the Company shall have the right to repurchase
the Unvested Shares under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
this Section 11 (the "UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION").

          11.2 VESTED SHARES AND UNVESTED SHARES DEFINED. The "VESTED SHARES"
shall mean, on any given date, a number of shares of Stock equal to the Number
of Option Shares multiplied by the Vested Ratio determined as of such date and
rounded down to the nearest whole share. On such given date, the "UNVESTED
SHARES" shall mean the number of shares of Stock acquired upon exercise of the
Option which exceed the Vested Shares determined as of such date.

          11.3 EXERCISE OF UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION. The Company may
exercise the Unvested Share Repurchase Option by written notice delivered
personally or forwarded by first class mail to the Optionee within sixty (60)
days after (a) termination of the Optionee's Service (or exercise of the Option,
if later) or (b) the Company has received notice of the attempted disposition of
Unvested Shares. If the Company fails to give notice within such sixty (60) day
period, the Unvested Share Repurchase Option shall terminate unless the Company
and the Optionee have extended the time for the exercise of the Unvested Share
Repurchase Option. The Unvested Share Repurchase Option must be exercised, if at
all, for all of the Unvested Shares, except as the Company and the Optionee
otherwise agree.

          11.4 PAYMENT FOR SHARES AND RETURN OF SHARES TO COMPANY. The purchase
price per share being repurchased by the Company shall be an amount equal to the
Optionee's original cost per share, as adjusted pursuant to Section 9 (the
"REPURCHASE PRICE"). The



                                       10
<PAGE>


Company shall pay the aggregate Repurchase Price to the Optionee in cash within
thirty (30) days after the date of personal delivery or mailing of the written
notice of the Company's exercise of the Unvested Share Repurchase Option. For
purposes of the foregoing, cancellation of any indebtedness of the Optionee to
any Participating Company shall be treated as payment to the Optionee in cash to
the extent of the unpaid principal and any accrued interest canceled. The shares
being repurchased shall be delivered to the Company by the Optionee at the same
time as the delivery of the Repurchase Price to the Optionee.

          11.5 ASSIGNMENT OF UNVESTED SHARE REPURCHASE OPTION. The Company shall
have the right to assign the Unvested Share Repurchase Option at any time,
whether or not such option is then exercisable, to one or more persons as may be
selected by the Company.

          11.6 OWNERSHIP CHANGE EVENT. Upon the occurrence of an Ownership
Change Event, any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other
property to which the Optionee is entitled by reason of the Optionee's ownership
of Unvested Shares shall be immediately subject to the Unvested Share Repurchase
Option and included in the terms "Stock" and "Unvested Shares" for all purposes
of the Unvested Share Repurchase Option with the same force and effect as the
Unvested Shares immediately prior to the Ownership Change Event. While the
aggregate Repurchase Price shall remain the same after such Ownership Change
Event, the Repurchase Price per Unvested Share upon exercise of the Unvested
Share Repurchase Option following such Ownership Change Event shall be adjusted
as appropriate. For purposes of determining the Vested Ratio following an
Ownership Change Event, credited Service shall include all Service with any
corporation which is a Participating Company at the time the Service is
rendered, whether or not such corporation is a Participating Company both before
and after the Ownership Change Event.

     12.  ESCROW.

          12.1 ESTABLISHMENT OF ESCROW. To ensure that shares subject to the
Unvested Share Repurchase Option will be available for repurchase, the Company
may require the Optionee to deposit the certificate evidencing the shares which
the Optionee purchases upon exercise of the Option with an escrow agent
designated by the Company under the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement
approved by the Company. If the Company does not require such deposit as a
condition of exercise of the Option, the Company reserves the right at any time
to require the Optionee to so deposit the certificate in escrow. Upon the
occurrence of an Ownership Change Event or a change, as described in Section 9,
in the character or amount of any of the outstanding stock of the corporation
the stock of which is subject to the provisions of this Option Agreement, any
and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property to which the
Optionee is entitled by reason of the Optionee's ownership of shares of Stock
acquired upon exercise of the Option that remain, following such Ownership
Change Event or change described in Section 9, subject to the Unvested Share
Repurchase Option shall be immediately subject to the escrow to the same extent
as such shares of Stock immediately before such event. The Company shall bear
the expenses of the escrow.

          12.2 DELIVERY OF SHARES TO OPTIONEE. As soon as practicable after the
expiration of the Unvested Share Repurchase Option, but not more frequently than
once each



                                       11
<PAGE>


calendar year, the escrow agent shall deliver to the Optionee the shares and any
other property no longer subject to such restriction.

          12.3 NOTICES AND PAYMENTS. In the event the shares and any other
property held in escrow are subject to the Company's exercise of the Unvested
Share Repurchase Option, the notices required to be given to the Optionee shall
be given to the escrow agent, and any payment required to be given to the
Optionee shall be given to the escrow agent. Within thirty (30) days after
payment by the Company, the escrow agent shall deliver the shares and any other
property which the Company has purchased to the Company and shall deliver the
payment received from the Company to the Optionee.

     13.  STOCK DISTRIBUTIONS SUBJECT TO OPTION AGREEMENT. If, from time to
time, there is any stock dividend, stock split or other change, as described in
Section 9, in the character or amount of any of the outstanding stock of the
corporation the stock of which is subject to the provisions of this Option
Agreement, then in such event any and all new, substituted or additional
securities to which the Optionee is entitled by reason of the Optionee's
ownership of the shares acquired upon exercise of the Option shall be
immediately subject to the Unvested Share Repurchase Option and with the same
force and effect as the shares subject to the Unvested Share Repurchase Option
immediately before such event.

     14.  LEGENDS. The Company may at any time place legends referencing the
Unvested Share Repurchase Option and any applicable federal, state or foreign
securities law restrictions on all certificates representing shares of stock
subject to the provisions of this Option Agreement. The Optionee shall, at the
request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates
representing shares acquired pursuant to the Option in the possession of the
Optionee in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.

     15.  BINDING EFFECT. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth
herein, this Option Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.

     16.  TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT. The Board may terminate or amend the Plan or
the Option at any time; provided, however, that except as provided in Section
8.2 in connection with a Transfer of Control, no such termination or amendment
may adversely affect the Option or any unexercised portion hereof without the
consent of the Optionee unless such termination or amendment is necessary to
comply with any applicable law or government regulation. No amendment or
