                                       this option will expire earlier if your

                                       in the Stock Option Agreement.

Nothing in this Notice or in the Stock Option Agreement shall confer upon you
any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or
interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way your rights or the rights of the

rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate your Service at any
time for any reason, with or without cause.

                                             --------------------------------

                              VIGNETTE CORPORATION
                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

Tax Treatment       This option is intended to be an incentive stock option
                    under section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code or a
                    nonstatutory stock option, as provided in the Notice of
                    Stock Option Grant.

Vesting             This option becomes exercisable in installments, as shown in
                    the Notice of Stock Option Grant. No additional shares
                    become exercisable after your service as an employee,
                    consultant or outside director of the Corporation or a
                    parent or subsidiary of the Corporation ("Service") has
                    terminated for any reason. In addition, this option becomes
                    exercisable in full if your Service terminates because of
                    death.

                    This option will in no event become exercisable for
                    additional shares after your service as an employee,
                    consultant or outside director of the Corporation or a
                    parent or subsidiary of the Corporation ("Service") has
                    terminated for any reason. It is intended that the exercise
                    schedule for this option is commensurate with a full-time
                    work schedule. For possible adjustments that may be made by
                    the Corporation, see the Section below entitled "Leaves of
                    Absence and Part-Time Work."

Change in Control   In the event of a Change in Control, then the vesting of
                    this option will automatically accelerate so that this
                    option will immediately before the effective date of the
                    Change in Control, become fully exercisable for all of the
                    shares of Common Stock at the time subject to this option
                    and may be exercised for any or all of those shares as
                    fully-vested shares of Common Stock. However, this option
                    will not so accelerate if and to the extent this option is,
                    in connection with the Change in Control, either to be
                    assumed by the successor corporation (or its parent) or to
                    be replaced with a comparable option for shares of the
                    capital stock of the successor corporation (or its parent).
                    The determination of option comparability will be made by
                    the Corporation's Board of Directors, and its determination
                    will be final, binding and conclusive.

                    Change in Control is defined in the Corporation's 1999
                    Equity Incentive Plan.

Involuntary         If the option is assumed by the successor corporation (or
Termination         its parent) and you experience an Involuntary Termination
                    within eighteen months following a Change in Control, the
                    vesting of this option will automatically accelerate so that
                    this option will, immediately before the effective date of
                    the Involuntary Termination, become fully exercisable for
                    all of the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to
                    this option and may be exercised for any or all of those
                    shares as fully-vested shares of Common Stock.

                    An Involuntary Termination means the termination of your
                    Service by reason of: your involuntary dismissal or
                    discharge by the Corporation for reasons other than
                    Misconduct (as defined below), neglect of duties, any breach
                    of an agreement between you and the Corporation or of any
                    Corporation policy, or any act or omission involving moral
                    turpitude, or (b) your voluntary resignation following (1) a
                    change in your position with the Corporation which
                    materially reduces your level of responsibility, (2) a
                    reduction in your level of compensation (including base
                    salary, fringe benefits and participation in bonus or
                    incentive programs) by more than 15% or (3) a relocation of
                    your place of employment by more than fifty (50) miles,
                    provided and only if such change, reduction or relocation is
                    effected by the Corporation without your consent.

Term                This option expires in any event at the close of business at
                    Corporation headquarters on the day before the 8th
                    anniversary of the Date of Grant, as shown in the Notice of
                    Stock Option Grant. (It may expire earlier if your Service
                    terminates, as described above.)

Regular             If your Service terminates for any reason except death,
Termination         Misconduct, Permanent Disability or a termination by the
                    Corporation without Cause, then this option will expire at
                    the close of business at Corporation headquarters on the
                    date three (3) months after your termination date. If your
                    Service is terminated by the Corporation without Cause, then
                    this option will expire at the close of business at
                    Corporation headquarters on the date six (6) months after
                    your termination date. The Corporation determines when your
                    Service terminates for this purpose.

                    However, the six (6) month time period provided for
                    exercising your vested options will not apply unless you
                    sign a general release of claims (in a form prescribed by
                    the Corporation) of all known and unknown claims that you
                    may then have against the Corporation or persons affiliated
                    with the Corporation. The benefit of the extension of this
                    option, together with the severance benefits provided in
                    your offer letter dated January 18, 2002 shall be the only
                    consideration for such a release. For purposes of this
                    provision, "Cause" means misconduct, neglect of duties, any
                    breach of an agreement between you and the Corporation, or
                    any act or omission involving moral turpitude.

Death               If you die while this option is outstanding, then this
                    option will expire at the close of business at Corporation
                    headquarters on the date 12 months after the date of death.

Disability          If your Service terminates because of your Permanent
                    Disability, then this option will expire at the close of
                    business at Corporation headquarters on the date 12 months
                    after your termination date.

                    For all purposes under this Agreement, "Permanent
                    Disability" means that you are unable to engage in any
                    substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically
                    determinable physical or mental impairment which can be
                    expected to result in death or which has lasted, or can be
                    expected to last, for a continuous period of not less than
                    one year.

Leaves of Absence   For purposes of this option, your Service does not terminate
and Part-Time       when you go on a military leave, a sick leave or another
Work                bona fide leave of absence, if the leave was approved by the
                    Corporation in writing. Your Service terminates when the
                    approved leave ends, unless you immediately return to active
                    work.

                    If you go on a leave of absence that lasts or is expected to
                    last seven days or longer, then this option shall not become
                    exercisable for any additional shares and vesting will be
                    suspended during the leave to the extent provided for in the
                    Corporation's leave policy. Upon your return to active work,
                    vesting will resume; however, unless otherwise provided in
                    the Corporation's leave policy, you will not receive credit
                    for any vesting during the period of your leave.

                    If you and the Corporation agree to a reduction in your
                    scheduled work hours, then the Corporation reserves the
                    right to modify the rate at which this option becomes
                    exercisable or vests, so that the rate of vesting is
                    commensurate with your reduced work schedule. Any such
                    adjustment shall be consistent with the Corporation's
                    policies for part-time or reduced work schedules or shall be
                    pursuant to the terms of an agreement between you and the
                    Corporation pertaining to your reduced work schedule.

                    The Corporation shall not be required to adjust the exercise
                    or vesting schedule of any option pursuant to this
                    subsection.

Misconduct          If your Service terminates for Misconduct, then this option
                    will terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding.
                    "Misconduct" includes fraud, embezzlement, dishonesty or any
                    unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information
                    or trade secrets of the Corporation or any parent or
                    subsidiary or any other intentional misconduct adversely
                    affecting the business or affairs of the Corporation or a
                    parent or subsidiary of the Corporation.

Restrictions on     The Corporation will not permit you to exercise this option
Exercise            if the issuance of shares at that time would violate any
                    law, regulation or corporate policy.

Notice of Exercise  When you wish to exercise this option, you must notify the
                    Corporation by filing the proper "Notice of Exercise" form
                    at the address given on the form. Your notice must specify
                    how many shares you wish to purchase. Your notice must also
                    specify how your shares should be registered. The notice
                    will be effective when the Corporation receives it.

                    If someone else wants to exercise this option after your
                    death, that person must prove to the Corporation's
                    satisfaction that he or she is entitled to do so.
                    Furthermore, in no event shall the Corporation's request for
                    satisfactory documentation in connection with an option
                    exercise extend the option's expiration date beyond the time
                    period specified in the above section entitled "Death."

Form of Payment     When you submit your notice of exercise, you must include
                    payment of the option exercise price for the shares that you
                    are purchasing. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
                    payment may be made in one (or a combination of two or more)
                    of the following forms:

                    o    Your personal check, a cashier's check or a money
                         order.

                    o    Certificates for shares of Corporation stock that you
                         own, along with any forms needed to effect a transfer
                         of those shares to the Corporation. The value of the
                         shares, determined as of the effective date of the
                         option exercise, will be applied to the option exercise
                         price. Instead of surrendering shares of Corporation
                         stock, you may attest to the ownership of those shares
                         on a form provided by the Corporation and have the same
                         number of shares subtracted from the option shares
                         issued to you. However, you may not surrender, or
                         attest to the ownership of, shares of Corporation stock
                         in payment of the exercise price if your action would
                         cause the Corporation to recognize compensation expense
                         (or additional compensation expense) with respect to
                         this option for financial reporting purposes.

                    o    Irrevocable directions to a securities broker approved
                         by the Corporation to sell all or part of your option
                         shares and to deliver to the Corporation from the sale
                         proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the option
                         exercise price and any withholding taxes. (The balance
                         of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to
                         you.) The directions must be given by signing a special
                         "Notice of Exercise" form provided by the Corporation.
                         However, payment pursuant to this procedure shall not
                         be permitted if such payment would violate applicable
                         law or a policy of the Corporation.

                    o    Irrevocable directions to a securities broker or lender
                         approved by the Corporation to pledge option shares as
                         security for a loan and to deliver to the Corporation
                         from the loan proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the
                         option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The
                         directions must be given by signing a special "Notice
                         of Exercise" form provided by the Corporation. However,
                         payment pursuant to this procedure shall not be
                         permitted if such payment would violate applicable law
                         or a policy of the Corporation.

Withholding         You will not be allowed to exercise this option unless you
Taxes and Stock     make arrangements acceptable to the Corporation to pay any
Withholding         withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the option
                    exercise. With the Corporation's consent, these arrangements
                    may include withholding shares of Corporation stock that
                    otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this
                    option. The value of these shares, determined as of the
                    effective date of the option exercise, will be applied to
                    the withholding taxes.

Restrictions on     You agree not to sell any option shares at a time when
Resale              applicable laws, regulations, Corporation trading policies
                    (including the Corporation's Insider Trading Policy, a copy
                    of which can be found on the Corporation's intranet) or an
                    agreement between the Corporation and its underwriters
                    prohibit a sale. This restriction will apply as long as your
                    Service continues and for such period of time after the
                    termination of your Service as the Corporation may specify.

Transfer of         In general, only you may exercise this option prior to your
Option              death. You may not transfer or assign this option, except as
                    provided below. For instance, you may not sell this option
                    or use it as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any
                    of these things, this option will immediately become
                    invalid. You may, however, dispose of this option in your
                    will or in a beneficiary designation.

                    Regardless of any marital property settlement agreement, the
                    Corporation is not obligated to honor a notice of exercise
                    from your former spouse, nor is the Corporation obligated to
                    recognize your former spouse's interest in your option in
                    any other way.

                    If another person wants to exercise this option after it has
                    been transferred to him or her, including a transfer upon
                    your death, that person must prove to the Corporation's
                    satisfaction that he or she is entitled to exercise this
                    option. That person must also complete the proper "Notice of
                    Exercise" form (as described above) and pay the exercise
                    price (as described below).

Retention Rights    Your option or this Agreement does not give you the right to
                    be retained by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the
                    Corporation in any capacity. The Corporation and its
                    subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate your Service at
                    any time, with or without cause.
