                            NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION

Roger Warren, Optionee:

         Bolder Technologies Corporation (the "Company") has granted to you, the
optionee named above, an option to purchase shares of the Common Stock of the
Company ("Common Stock"). This option is not intended to qualify and will not be
treated as an "incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422 of the
Code.

         The details of your option are as follows:

         1. TOTAL NUMBER OF SHARES SUBJECT TO THIS OPTION. The total number of
shares of Common Stock subject to this option is one hundred fifty thousand
(150,000).

         2. VESTING. Subject to the limitations contained herein, 1/36th of the
shares will vest (become exercisable) on first day of each month hereafter until
either (i) you cease to provide services to the Company for any reason, or (ii)
this option becomes fully vested.

         3. EXERCISE PRICE AND METHOD OF PAYMENT.

               (a) EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price of this option is $2.594
per share.

               (b) METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the exercise price per share
is due in full upon exercise of all or any part of each installment which has
accrued to you. You may elect, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes
and regulations, to make payment of the exercise price under one of the
following alternatives:

                           (i) Payment of the exercise price per share in cash
(including check) at the time of exercise; or

                           (ii) Payment pursuant to a program developed under
Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which, prior to the
issuance of Common Stock, results in either the receipt of cash (or check) by
the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate
exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.

         4. WHOLE SHARES. This option may not be exercised for any number of
shares which would require the issuance of anything other than whole shares.

         5. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, this option may not be exercised unless the shares issuable
upon exercise of this option are then registered under the Securities Act, or,
if such shares are not then so registered, the Company has determined that such
exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act.

         6. TERM. The term of this option commences on October 1, 1999, the date
of grant, and expires on September 30, 2009 (the "Expiration Date"), regardless
of any termination of your Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or
Consultant for any reason and for no reason. In no event may this option be
exercised on or after the Expiration Date.


                                       1.

         7. EXERCISE.

                  (a) This option may be exercised, to the extent specified
above, by delivering a notice of exercise (in a form designated by the Company)
together with the exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to such
other person as the Company may designate, during regular business hours,
together with such additional documents as the Company may then require pursuant
to paragraph 7(b) below.

                  (b) The Company may require you, as a condition of exercising
this option: (i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to
your knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, and that you
are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of exercising this option; and
(ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company that you are
acquiring the shares subject to the option for your own account and not with any
present intention of selling or otherwise distributing such shares. The
foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such requirements,
shall be inoperative if (x) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise of this
option has been registered under a then currently effective registration
statement under the Securities Act, or (y) 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 upon exercise of this option 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.

                  (c) By exercising this option, you agree that as a
precondition to the completion of any exercise of this option, the Company may
require you to enter an arrangement providing for the payment by you to the
Company of any tax withholding obligation of the Company arising by reason of:
(i) the exercise of this option; (ii) the lapse of any substantial risk of
forfeiture to which the shares are subject at the time of exercise; or (iii) the
disposition of shares acquired upon such exercise. You also agree that any
exercise of this option has not been completed and that the Company is under no
obligation to issue any Common Stock to you until such an arrangement is
established or the Company's tax withholding obligations are satisfied, as
determined by the Company.

         8. TRANSFERABILITY. This option is not transferable, except by will or
by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic
relations order satisfying the requirements of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act (a
"QDRO"), and is exercisable during your life only by you or a transferee
pursuant to a QDRO. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice
to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third
party who, in the event of your death, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise
this option.

         9. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK.

                  (a) If any change is made in the shares subject to this option
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 option will be


                                       9.
<PAGE>   3


appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and number of shares and price per share
of the stock subject thereto. Such adjustments shall be made by the Board of
Directors of the Company, 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: (i) a dissolution, liquidation or sale of
substantially all of the assets of the Company; (ii) a merger or consolidation
in which the Company is not the surviving corporation; or (iii) a reverse merger
in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the shares of Common Stock
of the Company outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by
virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities,
cash or otherwise, then to the extent permitted by applicable law: (x) any
surviving corporation or an Affiliate of such surviving corporation shall assume
this option or shall substitute a similar option therefor, or (y) this option
shall continue in full force and effect. In the event any surviving corporation
and its Affiliates refuse to assume or continue this option, or to substitute a
similar option therefor, then the time during which this option may be exercised
shall be accelerated and the option terminated if not exercised prior to such
event.

         10. OPTION NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. This option is not an employment
contract and nothing in this option shall be deemed to create in any way
whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ of the Company,
or of the Company to continue your employment with the Company. In addition,
nothing in this option shall obligate the Company or any Affiliate, or their
respective stockholders, Boards of Directors, officers or employees to continue
any relationship which you might have as a Director or Consultant for the
Company or Affiliate.

         11. NOTICES. Any notices provided for in this option shall be given in
writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of
notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the
United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the address specified
below or at such other address as you hereafter designate by written notice to
the Company.

         12. MISCELLANEOUS. The Board shall have the power to accelerate the
time at which this stock option may first be exercised or the time during which
this stock option or any part thereof will vest pursuant to section 2,
notwithstanding the provisions in this stock option stating the time at which it
may first be exercised or the time during which it will vest. Neither an
Employee, a Director, a Consultant nor any person to whom this stock option is
transferred in accordance with the terms hereof 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 this stock option unless and until such person has satisfied all requirements
for exercise of this stock option pursuant to the terms hereof. The Board of
Directors at any time, and from time to time, may amend the terms of this stock
option; provided, however, that the rights and obligations under this stock
option shall not be impaired by any such amendment unless (i) the Company
requests the consent of the person to whom this stock option was granted and
(ii) such person consents in writing.
