(a)              The
Board of Directors of Scientific Learning Corporation, a Delaware           corporation
(the Company), pursuant to the Companys 1999           Employee Stock
Purchase Plan (the Plan), hereby authorizes the grant           of rights to
purchase shares of the common stock of the Company (Common           Stock)
to all Eligible Employees (an Offering). The first day           of an
Offering is that Offerings Offering Date. An Offering           may
consist of one (1) or more consecutive Purchase Periods.          The last
day of each Purchase Period during an Offering shall be a           Purchase Date for
that Offering. If an Offering Date or Purchase           Date does not fall on a day
during which the Companys Common Stock is           actively traded, then the
Offering Date or Purchase Date, as the case may be,           shall be the next
subsequent day during which the Companys Common Stock is           actively traded.


(b)              Unless
otherwise specifically provided herein, the first Purchase Period of an
          Offering shall begin on the Offering Date and shall end approximately six (6)
          months thereafter on the next February 28 (February 29 during a leap
          year) or August 31, as the case may be. Subsequent Purchase Periods during
          the Offering shall begin each March 1 and September 1 and shall end
          six (6) months thereafter on August 31 or February 28 (February 29
          during a leap year), as the case may be.


(c)              Effective
commencing September 1, 2002, an Offering (the Re-Start           Offering)
shall commence on [date to be determined, as specified by the           Board ] and shall
end 12 months thereafter, unless terminated sooner as herein           provided.
Thereafter, an Offering shall begin each year on the anniversary date           of the
commencement of the Re-Start Offering and shall end twelve (12) months           later on
the day prior to the next Offering Date. Each Offering will be divided           into two
(2) consecutive shorter Purchase Periods of six (6) months in           duration..


(d)              Prior
to the commencement of any Offering, the Board of Directors (or the           Committee
described in subparagraph 2(c) of the Plan, if any) may change           any or all terms
of such Offering and any subsequent Offerings. The granting of           rights pursuant
to each Offering hereunder shall occur on each respective           Offering Date unless,
prior to such date (a) the Board of Directors (or           such Committee) determines
that such Offering shall not occur, or (b) no           shares remain available for
issuance under the Plan in connection with the           Offering.


(e)              Notwithstanding
any other provisions of an Offering, if the terms of an Offering           as previously
established by the Board of Directors of the Company would, as a           result of a
change to applicable accounting standards, generate a charge to           earnings, such
Offering shall terminate effective as of the day prior to the           date such change
of accounting standards would otherwise first apply to the           Offering (the Offering
Termination Date), and such Offering           Termination Date shall be the final
Purchase Date of such Offering. A subsequent           Offering shall commence on such
date and on such terms as shall be provided by           the Board of Directors of the
Company.

the previous           sentence shall be determined in accordance with regulations

such           Offering or any other Offering under the Plan, or pursuant to any other
Company           plans intended to qualify as employee stock purchase plans under

rata           allocation of the shares available in a uniform and equitable manner.

percent (85%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the Offering Date or

Offering, the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time when the Offering

the public in the Companys initial public offering as specified in the final
prospectus with respect to that offering.


5.PARTICIPATION.


(a)              An
Eligible Employee may elect to participate in an Offering only at the           beginning
of the Offering, or such later date specified in           subparagraph 3(c). An Eligible
Employee shall become a participant in an           Offering by delivering an agreement
authorizing payroll deductions. Such           deductions must be in whole dollars or
whole percentages, with a maximum           percentage of fifteen percent (15%) of
Earnings. A participant may not make           additional payments into his or her
account. The agreement shall be made on such           enrollment form as the Company or
a designated Affiliate provides, and must be           delivered to the Company or
designated Affiliate at least ten (10) days before           the Offering Date, or before
such later date specified in           subparagraph 3(c), to be effective, unless a later
time for filing the           enrollment form is set by the Board for all Eligible
Employees with respect to a           given Offering Date. For the Initial Offering, the
time for filing an enrollment           form and commencing participation for individuals
who are Eligible Employees on           the Offering Date for the Initial Offering may be
after the Offering Date, as           determined by the Company and communicated to such
Eligible Employees. (If the           agreement authorizing payroll deductions is
required to be delivered to the           Company or designated Affiliate a specified
number of days before the Offering           Date to be effective, then an employee who
becomes eligible during the required           delivery period shall not be considered to
be an Eligible Employee at the           beginning of the Offering but may elect to
participate during the Offering as           provided in subparagraph 3(c).)

participant may increase or reduce his or her participation level effective as
          of the March 2 following the March 1 Purchase Date during the course
          of an Offering. In addition, a participant may increase or decrease his or her
          participation level prior to the beginning of a new Offering to be effective at
          the beginning of such new Offering. A participant may also reduce his or her
          participation level to zero at any time during an Offering, excluding only each
          ten (10) day period immediately preceding a Purchase Date (or such shorter
          period of time determined by the Company and communicated to participants). Any
          such change in participation shall be made by delivering a notice to the
Company           or a designated Affiliate in such form and at such time as the Company
provides.           Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, a participant may
not increase           or decrease his or her participation level during the course of an
Offering.


(c)              A
participant may withdraw from an Offering and receive his or her accumulated
          payroll deductions from the Offering (reduced to the extent, if any, such
          deductions have been used to acquire Common Stock for the participant on any
          prior Purchase Dates), without interest, at any time prior to the end of the
          Offering, excluding only each ten (10) day period immediately preceding a
          Purchase Date (or such shorter period of time determined by the Company and
          communicated to participants) by delivering a withdrawal notice to the Company
          in such form as the Company provides. A participant who has withdrawn from an
          Offering shall not again participate in such Offering but may participate in
          subsequent Offerings under the Plan by submitting a new participation agreement
          in accordance with the terms thereof.


(d)              A
participant shall automatically participate in the Offering commencing
          immediately after the final Purchase Date of each Offering in which the
          participant participates until such time as such participant (i) ceases to
          be an Eligible Employee, (ii) withdraws from the Offering or           (iii)
terminates employment. A participant who automatically participates           in a
subsequent Offering is not required to file any additional enrollment form           for
such subsequent Offering in order to continue participation in the Plan.
          However, a participant may file an enrollment form with respect to such
          subsequent Offering if the participant desires to change any of the
          participants elections contained in the participants then effective
          enrollment form.
