            STOCK OPTION GRANTS IN THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998
                                        
    The following table shows individual grants made during the calendar year
ended December 31, 1998 to Named Executive Officers, and hypothetical gains for
the options at the end of their respective ten (10) year terms.  We have assumed
annualized growth rates of the market price of our Common Stock over the
exercise price of the option of five percent (5%) and ten percent (10%), running
from the date the option was granted to the end of the option term.  Actual
gains, if any, on option exercises depend on the future performance of Inprise's

change in control. The agreement provides each officer with enhanced financial
security and sufficient incentive and encouragement to remain with the Company
after a change in control. Upon occurrence of a change in control, all unvested
options to purchase shares of stock shall become immediately vested in full. If
an officer is involuntarily terminated following a change in control, the
officer shall receive severance pay in an amount equal to his annual base
salary. The severance pay shall be paid in a lump sum within thirty days of
termination. The Company will continue said officer's existing health insurance
coverage. If not permitted by law, the Company will reimburse the officer for
any COBRA premiums paid by him for health coverage. This benefit shall continue
until the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months or (ii) commencement of new
employment. If the officer is terminated for cause or voluntarily resigns
following a change in control, he will not be entitled to receive any severance
pay or benefits.

    Options  The options granted to Mr. Birmingham are subject to the Company's
    -------
stock option plans, with one quarter of the options vesting one year after the
date of the grant, and the remaining options vesting daily over the following
three years. Mr. Floisand's options vest periodically. In case of a change in
control, the vesting will be accelerated, resulting in the options fully
vesting.

shares of the successor corporation. The term "change in control" means the
election of nominees constituting a majority of the Board of Directors prior to
such election or acquisition by a third party of twenty percent (20%) or more of
the outstanding shares which acquisition was without approval of a majority of
the Board of Directors in office prior to such acquisition.
