        The
Board of Directors of Integrated Systems Consulting Group, Inc., pursuant to the Integrated Systems Consulting Group, Inc. Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan (the
"Plan") has granted to you, the optionee named above, an option to purchase shares of First Consulting Group, Inc. (the "Company") common stock. This option is not intended to qualify as an
"incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). 


        The
details of your option are as follows: 



        1.    Grant of Option.    The Option was granted to you on the grant date above. Your right to purchase Option Shares
will terminate on the tenth anniversary of this date, or on an earlier date as provided in Section 5 below. 


        2.    Exercise of Option.    You may purchase all or, from time to time, part of the Option Shares which you are
entitled to purchase under Section 3 at a purchase price as shown above, the fair market value of a share of Stock (as determined in accordance with the Plan) on the date the Option was granted
to you. 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 the Plan. 


        3.    Vesting.    Subject to the limitations contained herein, 1/5th of the shares will vest (become exercisable) on
the first anniversary of the date of original grant, and 1/60th of the shares shall vest on a monthly basis thereafter until either (i) you cease to provide services to the Company for any
reason, or (ii) this option becomes fully vested. 


        4.    Transferability of Options.    The Option may not be transferred by you (other than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution) and may be exercised during your lifetime only by you. 


        5.    Termination of Employment.    If you cease to be employed by the Company on a full-time basis for
any reason other than because of your death or disability, the Option generally may be exercised only within 90 days after the termination of your employment and, in such event, the Option
generally may be exercised only to the same extent that you would have been entitled to exercise the Option on the date of your termination and had not previously done so. If you cease to be employed
by the Company on a full-time basis by reason of death or disability, the Option generally may be exercised only within one year after the termination of your employment and only to the
same extent that you would have been entitled to exercise the Option on the date of your termination by reason of such disability and had not previously done so.

        6.    Voluntary.    You hereby acknowledge and agree that participation in this Plan is voluntary, and that you will
be solely responsible for all taxes to which you may become subject as a consequence of participation in the Plan, the exercise of an Option or the ownership, sale, transfer, or other disposition of
Option Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Option. Moreover, you acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to consult with tax and other advisors concerning your participation in the
Plan. 


        7.    Adjustments.    If the total number of outstanding shares of Stock of the Company is changed due to a stock
split, stock dividend, recapitalization, etc., the Board of Directors is authorized, but not required, to adjust the number of Option Shares or the exercise price for such Option Shares accordingly.
If the Company enters into a merger, asset sale or other similar transaction, the Board has the option of substituting the consideration received in the transaction for the Option Shares, accelerating
the exercise of the Option, or taking such other action as it deems to be appropriate. 


        8.    Continuation of Employment.    Neither the Plan nor this Option shall confer upon you any right to continue in
the employ of the Company or any subsidiary, or limit in any respect the right of the Company or any affiliated entity to terminate your employment at any time. 



        9.    Plan Documents.    This Letter Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan.
