the terms and conditions of this Agreement until the termination of the Option as provided herein.
If Participant does not purchase upon an exercise of this Option the full number of shares which
Participant is then entitled to purchase, Participant may purchase upon any subsequent exercise
prior to this Options termination such previously unpurchased shares in addition to those
Participant is otherwise entitled to purchase. b. Termination of Relationship (other than Disability or Death). If Participant

d. Death. In the event of Participants death, this Option shall terminate on the
earlier of (i) the close of business on the twelve-month anniversary of the date of Participants
death, and (ii) the expiration date of this Option stated in Paragraph 2(a) above. In such period
following Participants death, this Option may be exercised by the person or persons to whom
Participants rights under this Option shall have passed by Participants will or by the laws of
descent and distribution only to the extent the Option was exercisable on the vesting date
immediately preceding the date of Participants death, but had not previously been exercised. To
the extent this Option was not exercisable upon the date of Participants death, or if such person
or persons fail to exercise this Option within the time specified in this Paragraph 2(d), all
rights under this Option shall be forfeited. 3. Manner of Exercise. a. General. The Option may be exercised only by Participant (or other proper party in
the event of death or incapacity), subject to the conditions of the Plan and subject to such other
administrative rules as the Administrator may deem advisable, by delivering within the option
period written notice of exercise to the Company at its principal office. The notice shall state
the number of shares as to which the Option is being exercised and shall be accompanied by payment
in full of the option price for all shares designated in the notice. The exercise of the Option
shall be deemed effective upon receipt of such notice by the Company and upon payment that complies
with the terms of the Plan and this Agreement. The Option may be exercised with respect to any
number or all of the shares as to which it can then be so exercised and, if partially exercised,
may be so exercised as to the unexercised shares any number of times during the option period as
provided herein. b. Form of Payment. Subject to the approval of the Administrator, payment of the
option price by Participant shall be in the form of cash, personal check, certified check or
previously acquired shares of Common Stock of the Company, or any combination thereof. Any stock
so tendered as part of such payment shall be valued at its Fair Market Value as provided in the
Plan. For purposes of this Agreement, previously acquired shares of Common Stock shall include
shares of Common Stock that are already owned by Participant at the time of exercise. c. Stock Transfer Records. As soon as practicable after the effective exercise of all
or any part of the Option, Participant shall be recorded on the stock transfer books of the Company
as the owner of the shares purchased, and the Company shall deliver to Participant one or more duly
issued stock certificates evidencing such ownership. All requisite original issue or transfer
documentary stamp taxes shall be paid by the Company. 4. Miscellaneous. a. Rights as Shareholder. This Agreement shall not confer on Participant any right
with respect to the continuance of any relationship with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
nor will it interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate any such relationship.
Participant shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to shares subject to this Option
until such shares have been issued to Participant upon exercise of this Option. No adjustment
shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or other
property), distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares
are issued, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan. 3

b. Securities Law Compliance. The exercise of all or any parts of this Option shall
only be effective at such time as counsel to the Company shall have determined that the issuance
and delivery of Common Stock pursuant to such exercise will not violate any state or federal
securities or other laws. Participant may be required by the Company, as a condition of the
effectiveness of any exercise of this Option, to agree in writing that all Common Stock to be
acquired pursuant to such exercise shall be held, until such time that such Common Stock is
registered and freely tradable under applicable state and federal securities laws, for
Participants own account without a view to any further distribution thereof, that the certificates
for such shares shall bear an appropriate legend to that effect and that such shares will be not
transferred or disposed of except in compliance with applicable state and federal securities laws. c. Mergers, Recapitalizations, Stock Splits, Etc. Pursuant and subject to Section 12
of the Plan, certain changes in the number or character of the Common Stock of the Company (through
sale, merger, consolidation, exchange, reorganization, divestiture (including a spin-off),
liquidation, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend or otherwise) shall result in an
adjustment, reduction or enlargement, as appropriate, in Participants rights with respect to any
unexercised portion of the Option (i.e., Participant shall have such anti-dilution rights
under the Option with respect to such events, but shall not have preemptive rights). d. Shares Reserved. The Company shall at all times during the option period reserve
and keep available such number of shares as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this
Agreement. e. Withholding Taxes. In order to permit the Company to comply with all applicable
federal or state income tax laws or regulations, the Company may take such action as it deems
appropriate to insure that, if necessary, all applicable federal or state payroll, income or other
taxes are withheld from any amounts payable by the Company to Participant. If the Company is
unable to withhold such federal and state taxes, for whatever reason, Participant hereby agrees to
pay to the Company an amount equal to the amount the Company would otherwise be required to
withhold under federal or state law. Subject to such rules as the Administrator may adopt, the Administrator may, in its sole
discretion, permit Participant to satisfy such withholding tax obligations, in whole or in part (i)
by delivering shares of Common Stock of having an equivalent fair market value, or (ii) by electing
to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to Participant having a fair
market value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld for tax purposes. Participants
election to have shares withheld for purposes of such withholding tax obligations shall be made on
or before the date that triggers such obligations or, if later, the date that the amount of tax to
be withheld is determined under applicable tax law. Participants election shall be approved by
the Administrator and otherwise comply with such rules as the Administrator may adopt to assure
compliance with Rule 16b-3 or any successor provision, as then in effect, of the General Rules and
Regulations under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, if applicable. f. Nontransferability. During the lifetime of Participant, the accrued Option shall
be exercisable only by Participant or by the Participants guardian or other legal representative, and shall not be assignable
or transferable by Participant, in whole or
in part, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. 4

g. 2003 Equity Incentive Plan. The Option evidenced by this Agreement is granted
pursuant to the Plan, a copy of which Plan has been made available to Participant and is hereby
incorporated into this Agreement. This Agreement is subject to and in all respects limited and
conditioned as provided in the Plan. All defined terms of the Plan shall have the same meaning when
used in this Agreement. The Plan governs this Option and, in the event of any questions as to the
construction of this Agreement or in the event of a conflict between the Plan and this Agreement,
the Plan shall govern, except as the Plan otherwise provides. h. Lockup Period Limitation. (i) Participant agrees that in the event the Company advises Participant that it plans an
underwritten public offering of its Common Stock in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and that the underwriter(s) seek to impose restrictions under which certain shareholders
may not sell or contract to sell or grant any option to buy or otherwise dispose of part or all of
their stock purchase rights of the underlying Common Stock, Participant hereby agrees that for a
period not to exceed 180 days from the prospectus, Participant will not sell or contract to sell or
grant an option to buy or otherwise dispose of this option or any of the underlying shares of
Common Stock without the prior written consent of the underwriter(s) or its representative(s). (ii) The Participant acknowledges and agrees that: (A) he or she has duly and validly entered into that certain 2003 Stock Option Plan Lockup
Agreement (the Lockup Agreement) of even date herewith with the Company in connection with and as
a condition to the Companys grant of the option set forth in Section 1 hereof; (B) the Lockup Agreement contains restrictions, in addition to those set forth herein,
affecting the Participants ability to sell the Option Stock; and i. Blue Sky Limitation. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
in the event the Company makes any public offering of its securities and determines in its sole
discretion that it is necessary to reduce the number of issued but unexercised stock purchase
rights so as to comply with any state securities or Blue Sky law limitations with respect thereto,
the Board of Directors of the Company shall have the right (i) to accelerate the exercisability of
this Option and the date on which this Option must be exercised, provided that the Company gives
Participant 15 days prior written notice of such acceleration, and (ii) to cancel any portion of
this Option or any other option granted to Participant pursuant to the Plan which is not exercised
prior to or contemporaneously with such public offering. Notice shall be deemed given when
delivered personally or when deposited in the United States mail, first class postage prepaid and
addressed to Participant at the address of Participant on file with the Company. j. Stock Legend. The Administrator may require that the certificates for any shares
of Common Stock purchased by Participant (or, in the case of death, Participants successors) shall bear an appropriate legend
to reflect the restrictions of
Paragraph 4(b) and Paragraphs 4(h) through 4(k) of this Agreement. 5

Company and its successors and assigns and Participant and any successor or successors of
Participant permitted by Paragraph 2 or Paragraph 4(f) above. l. Arbitration. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
alleged breach of it, or the making of this Agreement, including claims of fraud in the inducement,
shall be discussed between the disputing parties in a good faith effort to arrive at a mutual
settlement of any such controversy. If, notwithstanding, such dispute cannot be resolved, such
dispute shall be settled by binding arbitration. Judgment upon the award rendered by the
arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator shall be a
retired state or federal judge or an attorney who has practiced securities or business litigation

commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association, unless such rules are
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Limited civil discovery shall be permitted for
the production of documents and taking of depositions. Unresolved discovery disputes may be
brought to the attention of the arbitrator who may dispose of such dispute. The arbitrator shall
have the authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of this state could order or grant;
provided, however, that punitive or exemplary damages shall not be awarded. The arbitrator may
award to the prevailing party, if any, as determined by the arbitrator, all of its costs and fees,
including the arbitrators fees, administrative fees, travel expenses, out-of-pocket expenses and
reasonable attorneys fees. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the place of any arbitration
proceedings shall be Hennepin County, Minnesota. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed on the day
and year first above written. MAKEMUSIC! INC.By:Its:Participant
