                 (AS AMENDED AND RESTATED THROUGH JUNE 15, 2002)


     1. Purpose. The purpose of this 1999 Non-Qualified Stock Award Plan (the
"Plan") is to motivate key personnel to produce a superior return to the
shareholders of Computer Network Technology Corporation by offering such
personnel an opportunity to realize Stock appreciation, by facilitating Stock
ownership, and by rewarding them for achieving a high level of corporate
performance. This Plan is also intended to facilitate recruiting and retaining
key personnel of outstanding ability by providing an attractive capital
accumulation opportunity.

Company or an Affiliate and a Participant containing the terms and conditions of
an Award in such form (not inconsistent with this Plan) as the Committee
approves from time to time, together with all amendments thereto, which

Committee) unless such amendments are deemed by the Committee to be materially
adverse to the Participant and are not required as a matter of law.

similar terms shall include the providing of services in any such capacity.
Employee shall also include any other person not previously employed by the
Company or an Affiliate who is issued an Award as an inducement essential to the
person's entering into an employment contract with the Company (including

         election contest which was (or, if threatened, would have been) subject

disposition, more than 60% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of
common stock of such corporation and the combined voting power of the then

the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by
all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial
owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding
Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such sale or other disposition in
substantially the same proportion as was their ownership, immediately prior to

or combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities (or voting
equity interests) of the surviving corporation or of any corporation (or other
entity) acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of the Company shall be
beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, immediately after a reorganization,

occurs that triggers a determination of Fair Market Value, whether the grant of
an Award, the exercise of an Option or otherwise, all references in this Section
2.1(m) to the "date immediately preceding that date" shall be deemed to be
references to "that date." The determination of Fair Market Value shall be
subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12 hereof.

<PAGE>


         (n) "Fundamental Change" means a dissolution or liquidation of the
Company, a sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, a merger or

Committee may delegate all or any portion of its authority under this Plan to
persons who are not Disinterested Persons solely for purposes of determining and
administering Awards to Employees who are not then subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. The Committee shall have
exclusive power to make Awards, to determine when and to whom Awards will be
granted, the form of each Award, the amount of each Award, and any other terms
or conditions of each Award. Each Award shall be subject to an Agreement
authorized by the Committee. The Committee's interpretation of this Plan and of
any Awards made under this Plan shall be final and binding on all persons. The
Committee shall have the power to establish regulations to administer this Plan
and to change such regulations.


<PAGE>


     3.2 Indemnification. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no member of
the Board or of the Committee or any person to whom the Committee delegates
authority under this Plan shall be liable for any action or determination taken
or made in good faith with respect to this Plan or any Award made under this
Plan and (b) the members of the Board and of the Committee and each person to
whom the Committee delegates authority under this Plan shall be entitled to
indemnification by the Company with regard to such actions and determinations.

     4. Shares Available Under this Plan. The number of Shares available for
distribution under this Plan shall not exceed 3,730,000 (subject to adjustment
as provided in this Section 4 and under Section 12 hereof). Any Shares subject
to the terms and conditions of an Award under this Plan that are not used
because the terms and conditions of the Award are not met may again be used for
an Award under this Plan. In addition, if, in accordance with this Plan, an
employee uses shares of Common Stock of the Company to (i) pay a purchase or
exercise price, including an Option exercise price, or (ii) satisfy tax
withholdings, only the number of shares issued net of the shares tendered in
payment of such purchase or exercise price and tax withholdings shall be deemed
to be issued for purposes of determining the maximum number of Shares available
under the Plan. Further, the maximum number of Shares available for distribution
under this Plan shall be increased to take into account any Awards granted under
Section 17 of this Plan.

     5. Eligibility. Awards may be granted under this Plan to Employees, and
such Awards shall have the terms and conditions specified in Sections 6 and 7
hereof and elsewhere in this Plan. The granting of Awards to Employees is solely
at the discretion of the Committee.

     6.  General Terms of Awards.

         6.1 Amount of Award. Each Agreement with an Employee shall set forth
the number of Shares to which the Option subject to such Agreement applies or
the number of Shares of Restricted Stock, Stock or Performance Units subject to
such Agreement, as the case may be.

         6.2 Term. Each Agreement, other than those relating solely to Awards of
Shares without restrictions, shall set forth the Term of the Option or
Restricted Stock or the Performance Cycle for the Performance Units, as the case
may be. An Agreement may permit an acceleration of the expiration of the
applicable Term upon such terms and conditions as shall be set forth in the
Agreement, which may, but need not, include without limitation acceleration
resulting from the occurrence of an Event or in the event of the Employee's
death or Retirement. Acceleration of the Performance Cycle of Performance Units
shall be subject to Section 7.2(b) hereof.

         6.3 Agreements. Each Award under this Plan shall be evidenced by an
Agreement setting forth the terms and conditions, as determined by the
Committee, which shall apply to such Award, in addition to the terms and
conditions specified in this Plan.

         6.4 Transferability. Except as provided in this Section 6.4, during the
lifetime of an employee to whom an Award is granted, only that Participant (or
that Participant's legal representative) may exercise an Option or receive
payment with respect to Performance Units or any other Award. No Award of
Restricted Stock (prior to the expiration of the restrictions), Options or
Performance Units or other Award may be sold, assigned, transferred, exchanged
or otherwise encumbered other than pursuant to a domestic relations order as
defined in the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
("ERISA") or the rules thereunder; any attempted transfer in violation of this
Section 6.4 shall be of no effect. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding
sentence, the Committee, in an Agreement or otherwise at its discretion, may
provide (i) that the Award subject to the Agreement shall be transferable to a
Successor in the event of an employee's death, or (ii) that the Award may be
transferable to a Transferee if the Participant receives no consideration for
the transfer. Any Award held by a Transferee shall continue to be subject to the



<PAGE>

same terms and conditions that were applicable to such Award immediately prior
to its transfer. By way of example and not limitation, (i) an Option may be
exercised by a Transferee as and to the extent that such Option has become
exercisable and has not terminated in accordance with the provisions of the Plan
and the applicable Agreement and (ii) for purposes of any provision of this Plan
relating to notice to an optionee or to vesting or termination of an Option upon
the death, disability or termination of employment of an optionee, the
references to "optionee" shall mean the original grantee of an option and not
any Transferee.

     7.  Terms and Conditions of Specific Awards.

         7.1 Stock Options. Each Option shall be granted as a Non-Qualified
Stock Option and not as an incentive stock option under Code Section 422 or any
other successor to said section. The purchase price of each Share subject to an
Option shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, but
shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share as of the date
the Option is granted. The purchase price of the Shares with respect to which an
Option is exercised shall be payable in full at the time of exercise, provided
that to the extent permitted by law, the Agreement may permit some or all
Participants simultaneously to exercise Options and sell the Shares thereby
acquired pursuant to a brokerage or similar relationship and use the proceeds
from such sale as payment of the purchase price of such Shares. The purchase
price may be payable in cash, in Stock having a Fair Market Value as of the date
the Option is exercised equal to the purchase price of the Stock being purchased
pursuant to the Option, or a combination thereof as determined by the Committee
and provided in the Agreement. Each Option shall be exercisable in whole or in
part on the terms provided in the Agreement. In no event shall any Option be
exercisable at any time after its expiration date. When an Option is no longer
exercisable, it shall be deemed to have lapsed or terminated. The Committee may
provide, in an Agreement or otherwise, that an employee who exercises an Option
and pays the Option price in whole or in part with Shares then owned by the
Participant will be entitled to receive another Option covering the same number
of shares tendered and with a price of no less than Fair Market Value on the
date of grant of such additional Option ("Reload Option").

         7.2 Performance Units.

                 (a) Initial Award. An Award of Performance Units shall entitle
such Participant (or a Successor) to future payments of cash, Stock, or a
combination of cash and Stock, as determined by the Committee and provided in
the Agreement, based upon the achievement of performance targets established by
the Committee. Such performance targets may, but need not, include without
limitation targets relating to one or more of corporate, group, unit, Affiliate,
or individual performance. The Agreement may establish that a portion of a full
or maximum amount of an employee's Award will be paid for performance, which
exceeds the minimum target but falls below the maximum target applicable to such
Award. The Agreement shall also provide for the timing of such payment.
Following the conclusion or acceleration of each Performance Cycle, the
Committee shall determine the extent to which (i) performance targets have been
attained, (ii) any other terms and conditions with respect to an Award relating
to such Performance Cycle have been satisfied, and (iii) payment is due with
respect to an Award of Performance Units.

                 (b) Acceleration and Adjustment. The Agreement may permit an
acceleration of the Performance Cycle and an adjustment of performance targets
and payments with respect to some or all of the Performance Units awarded to an
employee upon such terms and conditions as shall be set forth in the Agreement,
upon the occurrence of certain events, which may, but need not include without
limitation an Event, a Fundamental Change, the Participant's death or Retirement
or, with respect to payments in Stock with respect to Performance Units, a
reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, or stock combination as provided
in Section 12 hereof.
<PAGE>

     7.3 Restricted Stock Awards

              (a) The Committee is authorized to grant, either alone or in
conjunction with other Awards, stock and stock-based Awards. The Committee shall
determine the persons to whom such Awards are made, the timing and amount of
such Awards, and all other terms and conditions. Company Common Stock granted to
recipients may be unrestricted or may contain such restrictions, including
provisions requiring forfeiture and imposing restrictions upon stock transfer,
as the Committee may determine. Unless forfeited, the recipient of restricted
Common Stock will have all other rights of a shareholder, including without
limitation, voting and dividend rights.

              (b) An Award of Restricted Stock under the Plan shall consist of
Shares subject to restrictions on transfer and conditions of forfeiture, which
restrictions and conditions shall be included in the applicable Agreement. The
Committee may provide for the lapse or waiver of any such restriction or
condition based on such factors or criteria as the Committee, in its sole
discretion, may determine.

              (c) Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Agreement, each
Stock certificate issued with respect to an Award of Restricted Stock shall
either be deposited with the Company or its designee, together with an
assignment separate from the certificate, in blank, signed by the Participant,
or bear such legends with respect to the restricted nature of the Restricted
Stock evidenced thereby as shall be provided for in the applicable Agreement.

              (d) The Agreement shall describe the terms and conditions by which
the restrictions and conditions of forfeiture upon awarded Restricted Stock
shall lapse. Upon the lapse of the restrictions and conditions, Shares free of
restrictive legends, if any, relating to such restrictions shall be issued to
the Participant or a Successor or Transferee.

              (e) An employee or a Successor or Transferee with a Restricted
Stock Award shall have all the other rights of a shareholder including, but not
limited to, the right to receive dividends and the right to vote the Shares of
Restricted Stock.

          7.4 Other Awards. The Committee may from time to time grant Stock and
other Awards under the Plan including without limitations those Awards pursuant
to which Shares are or may in the future be acquired, Awards denominated in
Stock units, securities convertible into Stock and Phantom securities. The
Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine the terms and conditions of
such Awards provided that such Awards shall not be inconsistent with the terms
and purposes of this Plan. The Committee may, at its sole discretion, direct the
Company to issue Shares subject to restrictive legends and/or stop transfer
instructions that are consistent with the terms and conditions of the Award to
which the Shares relate. Furthermore, the Committee may use stock available
under this Plan as payment for compensation, grants or rights and earned or due
under any other compensation plans or arrangements of the Company.

     8.  Effective Date of this Plan.

          8.1 Effective Date. This Plan shall become effective as of July 15,
1999, the date of adoption of this Plan by the Board.

          8.2 Duration of this Plan. This Plan shall remain in effect until all
Stock subject to it shall be distributed or all Awards have expired or lapsed,
whichever is latest to occur, or this Plan is terminated pursuant to Section 11
hereof. The date and time of approval by the Committee of the granting of an
Award (or such other time as the Committee shall designate) shall be considered
the date and time at which such Award is made or granted, notwithstanding the
date of any Agreement with respect to such Award.

     9. Right to Terminate Employment. Nothing in this Plan or in any Agreement
shall confer upon any Employee the right to continue in the employment of the
Company or any Affiliate or affect any right which the Company or any Affiliate
may have to terminate the employment of the Employee with or without cause.

<PAGE>

     10. Tax Withholding. The Company may withhold from any cash payment under
this Plan to an employee or other person (including a Successor or a Transferee)
an amount sufficient to cover any withholding taxes required or permitted to be
withheld from the employee or other person. The Company shall have the right to
require an employee or other person receiving Stock under this Plan to pay to
the Company a cash amount sufficient to cover any withholding taxes, including
any income tax, social security tax, national insurance contribution, or other
kind or type of tax for which the employee, the Company or any Affiliate may be
liable as a consequence of the employee or other person exercising an Option or
receiving Stock. In lieu of all or any part of such a cash payment from a person
receiving Stock under this Plan, the Committee may permit the individual to
elect to cover all or any part of the withholdings, and to cover any additional
withholdings up to the amount needed to cover the full amount of federal, state,
and local tax with respect to income arising from payment of the Award, through
a reduction of the number of Shares delivered to such individual or a subsequent
return to the Company of Shares held by the employee or other person, in each
case valued in the same manner as used in computing the withholding taxes under
the applicable laws. The Company or the relevant Affiliate may in accordance
with and to the extent it is able under the laws of the jurisdiction with
respect to which a tax is owed, deduct the relevant amount from subsequent
earnings payable to the employee. To the extent that the Company or the relevant
Affiliate cannot (or does not) make the relevant deductions, the employee or
person receiving the Stock shall enter into such other arrangements for the
individual to reimburse the Company or the Affiliate for the amount of the tax
liability as the Company shall require, and the Company may make the
individual's agreement to such arrangements a condition of the exercise of any
Stock Option or the receipt of any Award under the Plan.

     11. Amendment, Modification and Termination of this Plan.

         (a) The Board may at any time and from time to time terminate, suspend
or modify the Plan. Except as limited in (b) below, the Committee may at any
time alter or amend any or all Agreements under the Plan to the extent permitted
by law.

         (b) No termination, suspension, or modification of the Plan will
materially and adversely affect any right acquired by any Participant or
Successor or Transferee under an Award granted before the date of termination,
suspension, or modification, unless otherwise agreed to by the Participant in
the Agreement or otherwise, or required as a matter of law; but it will be
conclusively presumed that any adjustment for changes in capitalization provided
for in Plan Section 7.2 or 12 does not adversely affect these rights.

     12. Adjustment for Changes in Capitalization. Appropriate adjustments in
the aggregate number and type of Shares available for Awards under this Plan and
in the number and type of Shares and amount of cash subject to Awards then
outstanding, in the Option price as to any outstanding Options and, subject to
Section 7.2(b) hereof, in outstanding Performance Units and payments with
respect to outstanding Performance Units may be made by the Committee in its
sole discretion to give effect to adjustments made in the number or type of
Shares of the Company through a Fundamental Change (subject to Section 13
hereof), recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, stock
combination, or other relevant change, provided that fractional Shares shall be
rounded to the nearest whole share.

     13. Fundamental Change. In the event of a proposed Fundamental Change: (a)
involving a merger, consolidation, or statutory share exchange, unless
appropriate provision shall be made for the protection of the outstanding
Options by the substitution of options and appropriate voting common stock of
the corporation surviving any such merger or consolidation or, if appropriate,
the parent corporation of the Company or such surviving corporation, to be
issuable upon the exercise of options in lieu of Options and capital stock of
the Company, or (b) involving the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the
Committee shall declare, at least 20 days prior to the occurrence of the
Fundamental Change, and provide written notice to each holder of an Option of
the declaration, that each outstanding Option, whether or not then exercisable,



<PAGE>


shall be canceled at the time of, or immediately prior to the occurrence of the
Fundamental Change in exchange for payment to each holder of an Option, within
ten days after the Fundamental Change, of cash equal to the amount, if any, for
each Share covered by the canceled Option, by which the Fair Market Value (as
defined in this Section) per Share exceeds the exercise price per Share covered
by such Option. At the time of the declaration provided for in the immediately
preceding sentence, each Option shall immediately become exercisable in full and
each person holding an Option shall have the right, during the period preceding
the time of cancellation of the Option, to exercise the Option as to all or any
part of the Shares covered thereby; provided, however, that if such Fundamental
Change does not become effective, then the declaration pursuant to this Section
13(b) shall be rescinded, the acceleration of the exercisibility of the Option
pursuant to this Section 13(b) shall be void, and the Option shall be
exercisable in accordance with its terms. In the event of a declaration pursuant
to this Section 13, each outstanding Option that shall not have been exercised
prior to the Fundamental Change shall be canceled at the time of, or immediately
prior to, the Fundamental Change, as provided in the declaration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no person holding an Option shall be entitled to
the payment provided for in this Section 13 if such Option shall have expired
pursuant to an Agreement. For purposes of this Section only, "Fair Market Value"
per Share means the cash plus the fair market value, as determined in good faith
by the Committee, of the non-cash consideration to be received per Share by the
shareholders of the Company upon the occurrence of the Fundamental Change,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Plan.

     14. Unfunded Plan. This Plan shall be unfunded and the Company shall not be
required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by Awards
under this Plan.

     15. Other Benefit and Compensation Programs. Payments and other benefits
received by an employee under an Award shall not be deemed a part of an
employee's regular, recurring compensation for purposes of any termination,
indemnity, or severance pay laws and shall not be included in, nor have any
effect on, the determination of benefits under any other employee benefit plan,
contract, or similar arrangement provided by the Company or an Affiliate, unless
expressly so provided by such other plan, contract, or arrangement or the
Committee determines that an Award or portion of an Award should be included to
reflect competitive compensation practices or to recognize that an Award has
been made in lieu of a portion of competitive cash compensation.

     16. Beneficiary Upon Employee's Death. To the extent that the transfer of
an employee's Award at death is permitted under an Agreement, (a) an employee's
Award shall be transferable to the beneficiary, if any, designated on forms
prescribed by and filed with the Committee and (b) upon the death of the
Employee, such beneficiary shall succeed to the rights of the Employee to the
extent permitted by law and this Plan. If no such designation of a beneficiary
has been made, the Participant's legal representative shall succeed to the
Awards, which shall be transferable by will or pursuant to laws of descent and
distribution to the extent permitted under an Agreement.

     17. Corporate Mergers, Acquisitions, Etc. The Committee may also grant
Options, Restricted Stock or other Awards under the Plan having terms,
conditions and provisions that vary from those specified in this Plan provided
that any such awards are granted in substitution for, or in connection with the
assumption of, existing options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock or
other awards granted, awarded or issued by another corporation and assumed or
otherwise agreed to be provided for by the Company pursuant to or by reason of a
transaction involving a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property
or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation to which the Company or a
subsidiary is a party.

     18. Deferrals and Settlements. The Committee may require or permit
Employees to elect to defer the issuance of Shares or the settlement of Awards
in cash under such rules and procedures as it may establish under the Plan. It
may also provide that deferred settlements include the payment or crediting of
interest on the deferral amounts.

     19. Governing Law. To the extent that federal laws do not otherwise
control, this Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant to
this Plan shall be governed by the laws of Minnesota and construed accordingly.
