        This DataWorks Corporation 1995 Equity Incentive Plan is an amendment
and restatement of the DataWorks Corporation 1987 Stock Option Plan. Shares
reserved for issuance under the 1987 Stock Option Plan shall hereafter be
reserved for issuance, and issued, under the terms of this 1995 Equity Incentive
Plan, as amended and restated in the form below.

1.      PURPOSES.

        (a)    The purpose of the Plan is to provide a means by which selected

Company through the granting of (i) Incentive Stock Options, (ii) Nonstatutory
Stock Options, (iii) stock bonuses, (iv) rights to purchase restricted stock,
and (v) stock appreciation rights, all as defined below.

        (b)    The Company, by means of the Plan, seeks to retain the services
of persons who are now Employees, Directors or Consultants of the Company or its
Affiliates, to secure and retain the services of new Employees, Directors and
Consultants, and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts
for the success of the Company and its Affiliates.

        (c)    The Company intends that the Stock Awards issued under the Plan
shall, in the discretion of the Board or any Committee to which responsibility
for administration of the Plan has been delegated pursuant to subsection 3(c),
be either (i) Options granted pursuant to Section 6 hereof, including Incentive
Stock Options and Nonstatutory Stock Options, (ii) stock bonuses or rights to
purchase restricted stock granted pursuant to Section 7 hereof, or (iii) stock
appreciation rights granted pursuant to Section 8 hereof. All Options shall be
separately designated Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options at
the time of grant, and in such form as issued pursuant to Section 6, and a
separate certificate or certificates will be issued for shares purchased on
exercise of each type of Option.

                                       5.

5.      ELIGIBILITY.

        (a)     Incentive Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights
appurtenant thereto may be granted only to Employees. Stock Awards other than
Incentive Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights appurtenant thereto may be
granted only to Employees or Consultants.

        (b)     No person shall be eligible for the grant of an Incentive Stock
Option if, at the time of grant, such person owns (or is deemed to own pursuant
to Section 424(d) of the Code) stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of
the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any
of its Affiliates unless the exercise price of such Incentive Stock Option is at
least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of such stock at
the date of grant and the Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five
(5) years from the date of grant.

6.      OPTION PROVISIONS.

        Each Option shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. The provisions of separate
Options need not be identical, but each Option shall include (through
incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the Option or otherwise) the
substance of each of the following provisions:

        (a)     TERM. No Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten
(10) years from the date it was granted.

        (b)     PRICE. The exercise price of each Incentive Stock Option shall
be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the
stock subject to the Option on the date the Option is granted; the exercise
price of each Nonstatutory Stock Option shall be determined by the Board or
Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option (whether an Incentive Stock
Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option) may be granted with an exercise price
lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is granted
pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner
satisfying the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code.

        (c)     CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to
an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and
regulations, either (i) in cash at the time the Option is exercised, or (ii) at
the discretion of the Board or the Committee, at the time of the grant of the
Option, (A) by delivery to the Company of other common stock of the Company, (B)
according to a deferred payment or other arrangement (which may include, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of other common stock of the
Company) with the person to whom the Option is granted or to whom the Option is
transferred pursuant to subsection 6(d), or (C) in any other form of legal
consideration that may be acceptable to the Board.



                                       6.
<PAGE>   7

        In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest shall be
payable at least annually and shall be charged at the minimum rate of interest
necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable provisions of
the Code, of any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest under the
deferred payment arrangement.

        (d)     TRANSFERABILITY. An Incentive Stock Option shall not be
transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and
shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the person to whom the Incentive
Stock Option is granted only by such person. A Nonstatutory Stock Option shall
not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or
pursuant to a domestic relations order satisfying the requirements of Rule
16a-12 and any administrative interpretations or pronouncements thereunder (a
"DRO"), and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the person to whom the
Option is granted only by such person or any transferee pursuant to a DRO.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the person to whom the Option is granted may, by
delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company,
designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionee, shall
thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

        (e)     VESTING. The total number of shares of stock subject to an
Option may, but need not, be allotted in periodic installments (which may, but
need not, be equal). The Option Agreement may provide that from time to time
during each of such installment periods, the Option may become exercisable
("vest") with respect to some or all of the shares allotted to that period, and
may be exercised with respect to some or all of the shares allotted to such
period and/or any prior period as to which the Option became vested but was not
fully exercised. The Option may be subject to such other terms and conditions on
the time or times when it may be exercised (which may be based on performance or
other criteria) as the Board may deem appropriate. The provisions of this
subsection 6(e) are subject to any Option provisions governing the minimum
number of shares as to which an Option may be exercised.

        (f)     TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR RELATIONSHIP AS A DIRECTOR OR
CONSULTANT. In the event an Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee,
Director or Consultant terminates (other than upon the Optionee's death or
disability), the Optionee may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the
Optionee was entitled to exercise it at the date of termination) but only within
such period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date three (3) months after
the termination of the Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or
Consultant (or such longer or shorter period specified in the Option Agreement)
if the Optionee is an Employee at the time of such termination, (ii) the date
six (6) months after the termination of the Optionee's Continuous Status as an
Employee, Director or Consultant (or such longer or shorter period specified in
the Option Agreement) if the Optionee is a Director or Consultant, but not an
Employee, at the time of such termination, or (iii) the expiration of the term
of the Option as set forth in



                                       7.
<PAGE>   8

the Option Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionee does not exercise his
or her Option within the time specified in the Option Agreement, the Option
shall terminate, and the shares covered by such Option shall revert to and again
become available for issuance under the Plan.

        An Optionee's Option Agreement may also provide that if the exercise of
the Option following the termination of the Optionee's Continuous Status as an
Employee, Director, or Consultant (other than upon the Optionee's death or
disability) would result in liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act,
then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of the term
of the Option set forth in the Option Agreement, or (ii) the tenth (10th) day
after the last date on which such exercise would result in such liability under
Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Finally, an Optionee's Option Agreement may
also provide that if the exercise of the Option following the termination of the
Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant (other than
upon the Optionee's death or disability) would be prohibited at any time solely
because the issuance of shares would violate the registration requirements under
the Act, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of
the term of the Option set forth in the first paragraph of this subsection 6(f),
or (ii) the expiration of a period of three (3) months after the termination of
the Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant during
which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such registration
requirements.

        (g)     DISABILITY OF OPTIONEE. In the event an Optionee's Continuous
Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant terminates as a result of the
Optionee's disability, the Optionee may exercise his or her Option (to the
extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise it at the date of
termination), but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i)
the date twelve (12) months following such termination (or such longer or
shorter period specified in the Option Agreement), or (ii) the expiration of the
term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, at the date of
termination, the Optionee is not entitled to exercise his or her entire Option,
the shares covered by the unexercisable portion of the Option shall revert to
and again become available for issuance under the Plan. If, after termination,
the Optionee does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified
herein, the Option shall terminate, and the shares covered by such Option shall
revert to and again become available for issuance under the Plan.

        (h)     DEATH OF OPTIONEE. In the event of the death of an Optionee
during, or within a period specified in the Option after the termination of, the
Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant, the Option
may be exercised (to the extent the Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option
at the date of death) by the Optionee's estate, by a person who acquired the
right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance or by a person designated
to exercise the option upon the Optionee's death pursuant to subsection 6(d),
but only within the period ending on the earlier of (i) the date



                                       8.
<PAGE>   9

twelve (12) months following the date of death (or such longer or shorter period
specified in the Option Agreement), or (ii) the expiration of the term of such
Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, at the time of death, the
Optionee was not entitled to exercise his or her entire Option, the shares
covered by the unexercisable portion of the Option shall revert to and again
become available for issuance under the Plan. If, after death, the Option is not
exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the
shares covered by such Option shall revert to and again become available for
issuance under the Plan.

        (i)     EARLY EXERCISE. The Option may, but need not, include a
provision whereby the Optionee may elect at any time while an Employee, Director
or Consultant to exercise the Option as to any part or all of the shares subject
to the Option prior to the full vesting of the Option. Any unvested shares so
purchased shall be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company, with
the repurchase price to be equal to the original purchase price of the stock, or
to any other restriction the Board determines to be appropriate.

        (j)     RE-LOAD OPTIONS. Without in any way limiting the authority of
the Board or Committee to make or not to make grants of Options hereunder, the
Board or Committee shall have the authority (but not an obligation) to include
as part of any Option Agreement a provision entitling the Optionee to a further
Option (a "Re-Load Option") in the event the Optionee exercises the Option
evidenced by the Option agreement, in whole or in part, by surrendering other
shares of Common Stock in accordance with this Plan and the terms and conditions
of the Option Agreement. Any such Re-Load Option (i) shall be for a number of
shares equal to the number of shares surrendered as part or all of the exercise
price of such Option; (ii) shall have an expiration date which is the same as
the expiration date of the Option the exercise of which gave rise to such
Re-Load Option; and (iii) shall have an exercise price which is equal to one
hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to
the Re-Load Option on the date of exercise of the original Option.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Re-Load Option which is intended to be an
Incentive Stock Option and which is granted to a 10% stockholder (as described
in subsection 5(b)), shall have an exercise price which is equal to one hundred
ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the stock subject to the Re-Load
Option on the date of exercise of the original Option and shall have a term
which is no longer than five (5) years.

        Any such Re-Load Option may be an Incentive Stock Option or a
Nonstatutory Stock Option, as the Board or Committee may designate at the time
of the grant of the original Option; provided, however, that the designation of
any Re-Load Option as an Incentive Stock Option shall be subject to the one
hundred thousand dollar ($100,000) annual limitation on exercisability of
Incentive Stock Options described in subsection 12(e) of the Plan and in Section
422(d) of the Code. There shall be no Re-Load Options



                                       9.
<PAGE>   10

on a Re-Load Option. Any such Re-Load Option shall be subject to the
availability of sufficient shares under subsection 4(a) and shall be subject to
such other terms and conditions as the Board or Committee may determine which
are not inconsistent with the express provisions of the Plan regarding the terms
of Options.

7.      TERMS OF STOCK BONUSES AND PURCHASES OF RESTRICTED STOCK.

        Each stock bonus or restricted stock purchase agreement shall be in such
form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board or the Committee
shall deem appropriate. The terms and conditions of stock bonus or restricted
stock purchase agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and
conditions of separate agreements need not be identical, but each stock bonus or
restricted stock purchase agreement shall include (through incorporation of
provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of
each of the following provisions as appropriate:

        (a)     PURCHASE PRICE. The purchase price under each restricted stock
purchase agreement shall be such amount as the Board or Committee shall
determine and designate in such agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Board or the Committee may determine that eligible participants in the Plan may
be awarded stock pursuant to a stock bonus agreement in consideration for past
services actually rendered to the Company or for its benefit.

        (b) TRANSFERABILITY. No rights under a stock bonus or restricted stock
purchase agreement shall be transferable except by will or the laws of descent
and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order satisfying the
requirements of Rule 16a-12 and any administrative interpretations or
pronouncements thereunder, so long as stock awarded under such agreement remains
subject to the terms of the agreement.

        (c)     CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to
a stock purchase agreement shall be paid either: (i) in cash at the time of
purchase; (ii) at the discretion of the Board or the Committee, according to a
deferred payment or other arrangement with the person to whom the stock is sold;
or (iii) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the
Board or the Committee in its discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Board or the Committee to which administration of the Plan has been delegated
may award stock pursuant to a stock bonus agreement in consideration for past
services actually rendered to the Company or for its benefit.

        (d)     VESTING. Shares of stock sold or awarded under the Plan may, but
need not, be subject to a repurchase option (or in the case of a stock bonus
award, a reacquisition option) in favor of the Company in accordance with a
vesting schedule to be determined by the Board or the Committee and such other
terms and conditions as determined by the Board or Committee in its sole
discretion.



                                      10.
<PAGE>   11

        (e)     TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR RELATIONSHIP AS A DIRECTOR OR
CONSULTANT. In the event a Participant's Continuous Status as an Employee,
Director or Consultant terminates, the Company may repurchase or otherwise
reacquire, subject to the limitations described in subsection 7(d), any or all
of the shares of stock held by that person which have not vested as of the date
of termination under the terms of the stock bonus or restricted stock purchase
agreement between the Company and such person.

8.      STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS.

        (a)     The Board or Committee shall have full power and authority,
exercisable in its sole discretion, to grant Stock Appreciation Rights under the
Plan to Employees or Directors of or Consultants to, the Company or its
Affiliates. To exercise any outstanding Stock Appreciation Right, the holder
must provide written notice of exercise to the Company in compliance with the
provisions of the Stock Award Agreement evidencing such right. If a Stock
Appreciation Right is granted to an individual who is at the time subject to
Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (a "Section 16(b) Insider"), the Stock Award
Agreement of grant shall incorporate all the terms and conditions at the time
necessary to assure that the subsequent exercise of such right shall qualify for
the safe-harbor exemption from short-swing profit liability provided by the
rules (or any successor rules or regulations) promulgated under Section 16 of
the Exchange Act. No limitation shall exist on the aggregate amount of cash
payments the Company may make under the Plan in connection with the exercise of
Stock Appreciation Rights.

        (b)     Three types of Stock Appreciation Rights shall be authorized for
issuance under the Plan:

                (i)     TANDEM STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. Tandem Stock
Appreciation Rights will be granted appurtenant to an Option, and shall, except
as specifically set forth in this Section 8, be subject to the same terms and
conditions applicable to the particular Option grant to which it pertains.
Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights will require the holder to elect between the
exercise of the underlying Option for shares of stock and the surrender, in
whole or in part, of such Option for an appreciation distribution. The
appreciation distribution payable on the exercised Tandem Right shall be in cash
(or, if so provided, in an equivalent number of shares of stock based on Fair
Market Value on the date of the Option surrender) in an amount up to the excess
of (A) the Fair Market Value (on the date of the Option surrender) of the number
of shares of stock covered by that portion of the surrendered Option in which
the Optionee is vested over (B) the aggregate exercise price payable for such
vested shares.

                (ii)    CONCURRENT STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. Concurrent Rights
will be granted appurtenant to an Option and may apply to all or any portion of
the shares of stock subject to the underlying Option and shall, except as
specifically set forth in this



                                      11.
<PAGE>   12

Section 8, be subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the
particular Option grant to which it pertains. A Concurrent Right shall be
exercised automatically at the same time the underlying Option is exercised with
respect to the particular shares of stock to which the Concurrent Right
pertains. The appreciation distribution payable on an exercised Concurrent Right
shall be in cash (or, if so provided, in an equivalent number of shares of stock
based on Fair Market Value on the date of the exercise of the Concurrent Right)
in an amount equal to such portion as shall be determined by the Board or the
Committee at the time of the grant of the excess of (A) the aggregate Fair
Market Value (on the date of the exercise of the Concurrent Right) of the vested
shares of stock purchased under the underlying Option which have Concurrent
Rights appurtenant to them over (B) the aggregate exercise price paid for such
shares.

                (iii)   INDEPENDENT STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. Independent
Rights will be granted independently of any Option and shall, except as
specifically set forth in this Section 8, be subject to the same terms and
conditions applicable to Nonstatutory Stock Options as set forth in Section 6.
They shall be denominated in share equivalents. The appreciation distribution
payable on the exercised Independent Right shall be not greater than an amount
equal to the excess of (A) the aggregate Fair Market Value (on the date of the
exercise of the Independent Right) of a number of shares of Company stock equal
to the number of share equivalents in which the holder is vested under such
Independent Right, and with respect to which the holder is exercising the
Independent Right on such date, over (B) the aggregate Fair Market Value (on the
date of the grant of the Independent Right) of such number of shares of Company
stock. The appreciation distribution payable on the exercised Independent Right
shall be in cash or, if so provided, in an equivalent number of shares of stock
based on Fair Market Value on the date of the exercise of the Independent Right.

9.      CANCELLATION AND RE-GRANT OF OPTIONS.

        The Board or the Committee shall have the authority to effect, at any
time and from time to time, (i) the repricing of any outstanding Options and/or
any Stock Appreciation Rights under the Plan and/or (ii) with the consent of the
affected holders of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights, the cancellation
of any outstanding Options and/or any Stock Appreciation Rights under the Plan
and the grant in substitution therefor of new Options and/or Stock Appreciation
Rights under the Plan covering the same or different numbers of shares of stock,
but having an exercise price per share not less than eighty-five percent (85%)
of the Fair Market Value (one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value in
the case of an Incentive Stock Option) or, in the case of a 10% stockholder (as
described in subsection 5(b)), not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of
the Fair Market Value) per share of stock on the new grant date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Board or the Committee may grant an Option and/or Stock
Appreciation Right with an exercise price lower than that set forth above if
such



                                      12.
<PAGE>   13

Option and/or Stock Appreciation Right is granted as part of a transaction to
which section 424(a) of the Code applies.

10.     COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

        (a)     During the terms of the Stock Awards, the Company shall keep
available at all times the number of shares of stock required to satisfy such
Stock Awards.

        (b)     The Company shall seek to obtain from each regulatory commission
or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to
issue and sell shares of stock upon exercise of the Stock Award; provided,
however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company to register under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") either the Plan,
any Stock Award or any stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such Stock
Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any
such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel for the Company
deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of stock under the Plan, the
Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell stock
upon exercise of such Stock Awards unless and until such authority is obtained.

11.     USE OF PROCEEDS FROM STOCK.

        Proceeds from the sale of stock pursuant to Stock Awards shall
constitute general funds of the Company.

12.     MISCELLANEOUS.

        (a)     Neither an Employee, Director or Consultant nor any person to
whom a Stock Award is transferred under subsection 6(d), 7(b), or 8(b) shall be
deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with
respect to, any shares subject to such Stock Award unless and until such person
has satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Stock Award pursuant to its
terms.

        (b)     Throughout the term of any Stock Award, the Company shall
deliver to the holder of such Stock Award, not later than one hundred twenty
(120) days after the close of each of the Company's fiscal years during the term
of such Stock Award, a balance sheet and an income statement.

        (c)     Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed or Stock Award
granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Employee, Director, Consultant or
other holder of Stock Awards any right to continue in the employ of the Company
or any Affiliate (or to continue acting as a Director or Consultant) or shall
affect the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the employment of
any Employee with or without cause, the right of the Company's Board of
Directors and/or the Company's shareholders to remove



                                      13.
<PAGE>   14

any Director pursuant to the terms of the Company's Bylaws and the provisions of
the California Corporations Code, or the right to terminate the relationship of
any Consultant pursuant to the terms of such Consultant's agreement with the
Company or Affiliate.

        (d)     To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined
at the time of grant) of stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are
exercisable for the first time by any Optionee during any calendar year under
all plans of the Company and its Affiliates exceeds one hundred thousand dollars
($100,000), the Options or portions thereof which exceed such limit (according
to the order in which they were granted) shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock
Options.

        (e)     The Company may require any person to whom a Stock Award is
granted, or any person to whom a Stock Award is transferred pursuant to
subsection 6(d), 7(b) or 8(b), as a condition of exercising or acquiring stock
under any Stock Award, (1) to give written assurances satisfactory to the
Company as to such person's knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to
the Company who is knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business
matters, and that he or she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the
purchaser representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Stock Award;
and (2) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that such
person is acquiring the stock subject to the Stock Award for such person's own
account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing
the stock. The foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such
requirements, shall be inoperative if (i) the issuance of the shares upon the
exercise or acquisition of stock under the Stock Award has been registered under
a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or
(ii) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for
the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the
then applicable securities laws. The Company may, upon advice of counsel to the
Company, place legends on stock certificates issued under the Plan as such
counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to comply with applicable
securities laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting the transfer
of the stock.

        (f)     To the extent provided by the terms of a Stock Award Agreement,
the person to whom a Stock Award is granted may satisfy any federal, state or
local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or acquisition of
stock under a Stock Award by any of the following means or by a combination of
such means: (1) tendering a cash payment; (2) authorizing the Company to
withhold shares from the shares of the common stock otherwise issuable to the
participant as a result of the exercise or acquisition of stock under the Stock
Award; or (3) delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered shares of the
common stock of the Company.

13.     ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK.

        (a)     If any change is made in the stock subject to the Plan, or
subject to any Stock Award, without the receipt of consideration by the Company
(through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization,
reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock
split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change
in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of
consideration by the Company), the Plan will be appropriately adjusted in the
class(es) and maximum number of shares subject to the Plan pursuant to
subsection 4(a) and the outstanding Stock Awards will be appropriately adjusted
in the class(es) and number of shares and price per share of stock subject to
such outstanding Stock Awards. Such adjustments shall be made by the Board or
the Committee, the determination of which shall be final, binding and
conclusive. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall
not be treated as a "transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by
the Company".)

        (b)     In the event of: (1) a merger or consolidation in which the
Company is not the surviving corporation, (2) a reverse merger in which the
Company is the surviving corporation but the shares of the Company's common
stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of
the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or
otherwise, (3) a sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, (4)
any other capital reorganization in which the beneficial ownership of more than
fifty percent (50%) of the shares of the Company entitled to vote changes, or
(5) the acquisition by any person, entity or group (excluding any employee
benefit plan, or related trust, sponsored or maintained by the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company) of the beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly,
of securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the
combined voting in the election of directors of the Company, then to the extent
permitted by applicable law: (i) any surviving or acquiring corporation, or an
Affiliate of such surviving or acquiring corporation, shall assume any Stock
Awards outstanding under the Plan or shall substitute similar Stock Awards for
those outstanding under the Plan, or (ii) such Stock Awards shall continue in
full force and effect. In the event any surviving or acquiring corporation and
its Affiliates refuse to assume or continue such Stock Awards, or to substitute
similar Stock Awards for those outstanding under the Plan, then the vesting
schedules applicable to all outstanding Stock Awards shall be accelerated so
that all outstanding Stock Awards are fully vested, and any Options shall be
terminated if not exercised prior to such event. In the event of a dissolution
or liquidation of the Company, the vesting schedules applicable to all
outstanding Stock Awards shall be accelerated so that all outstanding Stock
Awards are fully vested, and any Options shall be terminated if not exercised
prior to such event.

14.     AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND STOCK AWARDS.

        (a)     The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the
Plan. However, except as provided in Section 13 relating to adjustments upon
changes in stock, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the
stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the
adoption of the amendment, where the amendment will:

                (i)     Increase the number of shares reserved for Stock Awards
under the Plan;

                (ii)    Modify the requirements as to eligibility for
participation in the Plan (to the extent such modification requires stockholder
approval in order for the Plan to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the
Code); or

                (iii)   Modify the Plan in any other way if such modification
requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to satisfy the requirements
of Section 422 of the Code.

        (b)     The Board may in its sole discretion submit any other amendment
to the Plan for stockholder approval, including, but not limited to, amendments
to the Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code
and the regulations promulgated thereunder regarding the exclusion of
performance-based compensation from the limit on corporate deductibility of
compensation paid to certain executive officers.

        (c)     It is expressly contemplated that the Board may amend the Plan
in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable to provide eligible
Employees, Directors or Consultants with the maximum benefits provided or to be
provided under the provisions of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder relating to Incentive Stock Options and/or to bring the Plan and/or
Incentive Stock Options granted under it into compliance therewith.

        (d)     Rights and obligations under any Stock Award granted before
amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan unless
(i) the Company requests the consent of the person to whom the Stock Award was
granted and (ii) such person consents in writing.

        (e)     The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the
terms of any one or more Stock Award; provided, however, that the rights and
obligations under any Stock Award shall not be impaired by any such amendment
unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the person to whom the Stock
Award was granted and (ii) such person consents in writing.

15.     TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.

        (a)     The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. Unless
sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate on October 4, 2005, which shall be
within ten (10) years from the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or approved
by the stockholders of the Company, whichever is earlier. No Stock Awards may be
granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.

        (b)     Rights and obligations under any Stock Award granted while the
Plan is in effect shall not be impaired by suspension or termination of the
Plan, except with the consent of the person to whom the Stock Award was granted.

16.     EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.

        The Plan shall become effective upon the initial registration of any
class of the Company's equity securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act,
but no Stock Awards granted under the Plan shall be exercised or vested unless
and until the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the Company, which
approval shall be within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is
adopted by the Board.
