agree as follows:

         The parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

the meanings specified or referred to in this Section 1:

the transaction continue to own less than 50% of the outstanding securities of
the acquiror immediately following the transaction; (C) there occurs a merger,
consolidation or other reorganization of Employer in which the Employer is the
surviving entity, provided Persons who were shareholders of Employer prior to

and any entity in which Executive (alone or with other officers) has, directly
or indirectly, at least a 25% equity or ownership interest; or (ii) in a

(written or otherwise) of the Board of Directors of the Employer or a

could give rise to termination and such conduct is not, or could not be cured,
within ten (10) days thereafter; or (f) any violation by the Executive of the

                  (d) Termination by Executive For Good Reason or Termination by
Employer Without Cause. If this Agreement is terminated by Executive for Good
Reason, or if this Agreement is terminated by Employer other than For Cause,
then Employee's sole remedy shall be to receive severance under this Agreement,

         7. CHARACTER OF TERMINATION PAYMENTS; MITIGATION

         The amounts payable to Executive upon any termination of this Agreement
shall be considered severance pay in consideration of past services rendered on
behalf of the Employer and his continued service from the date hereof to the
date he becomes entitled to such payments. Executive shall have no duty to
mitigate his damages by seeking other employment and, should Executive actually
receive compensation from any such other employment, the payments required
hereunder shall not be reduced or offset by any such other compensation.

         8. CONFIDENTIALITY AND RELATED MATTERS.

                  8.1 NON-DISCLOSURE COVENANT

                  Employer and the Executive acknowledge that the services to be
performed by the Executive under this Agreement are unique and valuable and
that, as a result of the Executive's employment, the Executive will be in a
relationship of confidence and trust with Employer and will come into possession
of "Confidential Information" (i) owned or controlled by Employer and its
subsidiaries and affiliates; (ii) in the possession of Employer and its
subsidiaries and affiliates and belonging to third parties; or (iii) conceived,
originated, discovered or developed, in whole or in part, by the Executive
during the term of this Agreement and relating to his duties for the Employer
under this Agreement. As used herein "Confidential Information" means trade
secrets and other confidential or proprietary business, technical, personnel or
financial information of Employer, whether or not the Executive's work product,
in written, graphic, oral or other tangible or intangible forms, including but
not limited to specifications, samples, records, data, computer programs,
drawings, diagrams, models, consumer names, ID's or e-mail addresses, business
or marketing plans, studies, analyses, projections and reports, communications
by or to attorneys (including attorney-client privileged communications), memos
and other materials prepared by attorneys or under their direction (including
attorney work product), and software systems and processes that are not readily
available to the public, even it is not specifically marked as a trade secret or
confidential, unless Employer advises the Executive otherwise in writing or
unless the information has been shared by Employer with entities not bound by
non-disclosure agreements. In consideration of the compensation and benefits to

                                       7
<PAGE>

be paid or provided to the Executive by the Employer under this Agreement, the
Executive agrees not to directly or indirectly use or disclose to anyone, either
during the Employment Period or after the termination of this Agreement, except
in the performance of his duties of his employment with Employer or with
Employer's prior written consent, any Confidential Information of Employer. This
non-disclosure covenant does not apply to information that is disclosed or
becomes public through another source that is not bound by a confidentiality
agreement with Employer; which Executive is required to disclose pursuant to
court order, subpoena or applicable law (provided that Executive will use
reasonable efforts to provide Employer with prompt notice of any such requests
or requirement so that Employer may seek an appropriate protective order); or
which is disclosed in any proceeding to enforce or interpret this Agreement. The
Executive agrees that in the event of the termination of the Executive's
employment for any reason, the Executive will deliver to Employer, upon request,
all property belonging to Employer, including all documents and materials of any
nature pertaining to the Executive's work with Employer and will not take with
him any documents or materials of any description, or any reproduction thereof
of any description, containing or pertaining to any Confidential Information.

                  8.2 WORK MADE FOR HIRE

                   Executive recognizes and understands that Executive's duties
at the Employer may include the preparation of materials, including without
limitation written or graphic materials, and that any such materials conceived
or written by Executive shall be done as "work made for hire" as defined and
used in the Copyright Act of 1976, 17 U.S.C. ss.ss. 1 et seq. In the event of
publication of such materials, Executive understands that since the work is a
"work made for hire", the Employer will solely retain and own all rights in said
materials, including right of copyright.

                  8.3 DISCLOSURE OF WORKS AND INVENTIONS/ASSIGNMENT OF PATENTS

                  In consideration of the promises set forth herein, Executive
agrees to disclose promptly to the Employer, or to such person whom the Employer
may expressly designate for this specific purpose (its "Designee"), any and all
works, inventions, discoveries and improvements authored, conceived or made by
Executive during the period of employment and related to the business or
activities of the Employer, and Executive hereby assigns and agrees to assign
all of Executive's interest in the foregoing to the Employer or to its Designee.
Executive agrees that, whenever he is requested to do so by the Employer,
Executive shall execute any and all applications, assignments or other
instruments which the Company shall deem necessary to apply for and obtain
Letters Patent or Copyrights of the United States or any foreign country or to
otherwise protect the Company's interest therein. Such obligations shall
continue beyond the termination or nonrenewal of Executive's employment with
respect to any works, inventions, discoveries and/or improvements that are
authored, conceived of, or made by Executive during the period of Executive's
employment, and shall be binding upon Executive's successors, assigns,
executors, heirs, administrators or other legal representatives.

                                       8
<PAGE>

         9. NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION MATTERS

                  9.1 NON-COMPETITION

                  During the term of this Agreement the Executive agrees that he
shall not work for or be interested in any business which provides services or
products which are directly competitive with "primary" services or products
offered by the Employer or a subsidiary or affiliate of Employer at any time
during his term of employment or at the Executive's termination date (the
"Non-Compete Period"). In the event the Executive is terminated For Cause or
Executive terminates for other than Good Reason, the Non-Compete Period shall be
extended until the earlier of (i) one year; or (ii) the then scheduled
expiration of the term of the Agreement. In the event the Executive is
terminated in a manner in which he is paid severance, his Basic Compensation is
continued, or he is paid a lump-sum as though his employment had continued, the
Non-Compete Period shall be extended through the period of such severance or
compensation continuation. For the purpose of this Agreement, a product or
service shall be deemed "primary" only if such service or product constitutes a
primary component of the core business of Employer on Executive's termination
date. For the further purposes of this Agreement, the term "work for or be
interested in any business" means that the Executive is a stockholder, director,
officer, employee, partner, individual proprietor, lender or consultant with
that business, but not if (i) his interest is limited solely to the passive
ownership of five percent (5%) or less of any class of the equity or debt
securities of a corporation whose shares are listed for trading on a national
securities exchange or traded in the over-the-counter market. In the event that
any part of this Section 9 is adjudged invalid or unenforceable by any court of
record, board of arbitration or judicial or quasi judicial entity having
jurisdiction thereof by reason of length of time, geographical coverage,
activities covered, or for any other reason, then the invalid or unenforceable
provisions of this covenant shall be deemed reformed and amended to the maximum
extent permissible under applicable law and shall be enforced and enforceable as
so amended in accordance with the intention of the parties as expressed herein.

                  9.2 NON-SOLICITATION

                  During the Non-Compete Period, the Executive also agrees that
he will not directly or indirectly: (i) solicit the trade of, or trade with, any
past, present or prospective customer of the Employer for any business purpose
that directly or indirectly competes with the business of Employer or a
subsidiary or affiliate of Employer; or (ii) solicit or induce, or attempt to
solicit or induce, any employee of Employer to leave Employer for any reason
whatsoever, or assist or participate in the hiring of any employee of Employer
to work for another entity.

                  10. REPRESENTATIONS OF EXECUTIVE

                  As a material inducement to Employer to execute this Agreement
and consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, the Executive hereby makes
the following representations to Employer, each of which are true and correct in
all material respects as of the date hereof.

                                       9
<PAGE>

                  10.1 QUESTIONNAIRE

                  On or before the date hereof Executive has completed and
returned to Employer a Directors and Officers Questionnaire (the

                  10.2 NO PRIOR AGREEMENTS

                  Executive represents and warrants that Executive is not a
party to or otherwise subject to or bound by the terms of any contract,
agreement or understanding which in any manner would limit or otherwise affect
Executive's ability to perform his obligations hereunder, including without
limitation any contract, agreement or understanding containing terms and
provisions similar in any manner to those contained in Sections 8 and 9 of this
Agreement. Executive further represents and warrants that his employment with
the Employer will not under any circumstances require him to disclose or use any
confidential information belonging to prior Employers or other persons or
entities, or to engage in any conduct which may potentially interfere with the
contractual, statutory or common-law rights of such other Employers, persons or
entities. In the event that Executive knows or learns of any facts whatsoever
which suggest that such interference might arguably occur as the result of any
proposed actions by either Executive or the Employer, Executive expressly
promises that he will immediately bring such facts to the Employer's attention.

                  10.3 REVIEW BY COUNSEL

                  Executive expressly acknowledges and represents that Executive
has been given a full and fair opportunity to review this Agreement with an
attorney of Executive's choice, and that Executive has satisfied himself, with
or without consulting with counsel, that the terms and provisions of this
Agreement, specifically including, but not limited to, the restrictive covenant
and related provisions of Section 9 hereof, are reasonable and enforceable.

                  10.4 NO CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

                  Executive covenants that, as of the date hereof, he is not
involved in any venture or activity that could compete with Employer or which
could potentially interfere with his ability to perform under this Agreement.
During the Term, he will disclose to the Company, in writing, any and all
interests he may have, whether for profit or compensation or not, in any venture
or activity which could potentially interfere with his ability to perform under
this Agreement or create a conflict of interest for him with the Company. For
purposes of this Section 10.4 only, "conflict of interest" shall mean ownership
of greater than one percent (1%) of, or $25,000 worth of equity in, another
company which conducts business similar to that undertaken by the Employer.

                  10.5 EXECUTIVE'S ABILITY

                  Executive represents that Executive's experience and
capabilities, and the limited provisions of Section 9, are such that he will not
be prevented from earning his livelihood in businesses similar to that of
Employer. Executive acknowledges that there are a significant number of
businesses for which his qualifications and experience would render him
qualified for employment that do not constitute a competing businesses such that
his ability to become employed after the termination or nonrenewal of this
Agreement would not be impaired.

         11. GENERAL PROVISIONS

                  11.1 INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND ADDITIONAL REMEDY

                  The Executive acknowledges that the injury that would be
suffered by the Employer as a result of a breach of the provisions of any
provision of Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement would be irreparable and that an
award of monetary damages to the Employer for such a breach would be an
inadequate remedy. Consequently Employer will have the right, in addition to any
other rights it may have, to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or
threatened breach or otherwise to specifically enforce any provisions of
Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement, and the Employer will not be obligated to
post bond or other security in seeking such relief.

                  11.2 WAIVER

                  The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are
cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by either
party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement will
operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial
exercise of any such right, power, or privilege will preclude any other or
further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of any other
right, power, or privilege.

                  11.3 TOLLING PERIOD

                  The non-competition, non-disclosure and non-solicitation
obligations contained in Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement shall be extended by
the length of time during which Executive shall have been in breach of any of
the provisions of such Sections 8 and 9, regardless of whether the Employer knew
or should have known of such breach.

                  11.4 EMPLOYER VIOLATION NOT A DEFENSE

                  In an action by the Employer to enforce any provision of this
Agreement, any claims asserted by Executive against the Employer shall not
constitute a defense to the Employer's action.

                  11.5 INDEMNIFICATION

                  Employer shall indemnify and defend Executive and his heirs,
executors and administrators against any costs or expense (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and amounts paid in settlement, if such settlement is approved
by the Employer), fine, penalty, judgment and liability reasonable incurred by
or imposed upon Executive in connection with any action, suit or proceeding,
civil or criminal, to which Executive may be made a party or with which
Executive shall be threatened, by reason of Executive's being or having been an

                                       11
<PAGE>

officer or director, unless with respect to such matter Executive shall have
been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith or in the
reasonable belief that the action was in the best interests of the Employer, or
unless such indemnification is precluded by law, public policy, or in the
judgment of the Employer's Board of Directors, such indemnification is being
sought as a result of actions of Executive which were either: (i) grossly
negligent; (ii) reflective of Executive misconduct; (iii) in violation of rules,
regulations or laws applicable to the Employer; or (iv) in disregard of Employer
policies.

                  11.6 NOTICES

                              STONEPATH GROUP, INC.

                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
                                    UNDER THE
                              STONEPATH GROUP, INC.
                              AMENDED AND RESTATED
                     2000 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN (the "Plan")

         This Agreement is made as of the date set forth on Schedule A hereto
(the "Grant Date") by and between Stonepath Group, Inc. (the "Corporation"), and
the person named on Schedule A hereto (the "Holder").

         WHEREAS, Holder is a valuable employee of the Corporation or one of its
subsidiaries and the Corporation considers it desirable and in its best interest
that Holder be given an inducement to acquire a proprietary interest in the
Corporation and an incentive to advance the interests of the Corporation by
granting the Holder an option to purchase shares of common stock of the
Corporation (the "Common Stock");

         WHEREAS, to cover the granting of such Options, the Corporation has
adopted the Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan");

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound,
hereby agree that as of the Grant Date, the Corporation hereby grants Holder an
option to purchase from it, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan,
that number of shares of the authorized and unissued Common Stock of the
Corporation as is set forth on Schedule A hereto.

         1. Terms of Stock Option. The option to purchase Common Stock granted
hereby is subject to the terms, conditions, and covenants set forth in the Plan
as well as the following:

                  1.1 The Holder has been provided with, reviewed and fully
understood, the terms, conditions and covenants, of the Plan;

                  1.2 Except as otherwise provided in this Stock Option
Agreement, this Option is granted under, governed by, and subject in its
entirety to, the terms of the Plan;

                  1.3 The Holder has been provided with, and fully understands,
the "Disclosure Document for the Stonepath Group, Inc. Amended and Restated 2000
Stock Incentive Plan";

                  1.4 The per share exercise price for the shares subject to
this option shall be the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of the
Common Stock on the Grant Date, which exercise price is set forth on Schedule A
hereto;

                  1.5 This Option shall vest in accordance with the vesting
schedule set forth on Schedule A hereto; and

                  1.6 No portion of this option may be exercised more than ten
(10) years from the Grant Date.

         2. Termination of Service. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Plan
to the Contrary:

         (a) If during the term of Holder's employment agreement with the
             Corporation dated January 10, 2002 (the "Employment Term"), the
             Holder shall cease to perform Service to the Corporation as a
             result of termination of Holder's employment by the Corporat"For
             Cause" (as hereafter defined) or termination or resignation by
             Holder without "Good Reason" (as hereafter defined), then,
             notwithstanding any provisions otherwise contained in the Plan or
             this Option Agreement, any Options then exercisable on the date of
             such termination or resignation, shall only be exercisable for a
             period of ninety (90) days thereafter; and if not exercised within

<PAGE>

             that period, such Options shall lapse and be of no further force
             and effect. All remaining Options not exercisable at the time of
             Holder's termination or resignation as covered by this subparagraph
             (a), shall lapse and be of no further force and effect.

         (b) If during the Employment Term, the Holder shall cease to perform
             Service to the Corporation as a result of termination of Holder's
             employment by the Corporation other than For Cause or by Holder for
             Good Reason, then, notwithstanding any provisions otherwise
             contained in the Plan or in this Option Agreement, any Options then
             exercisable on the date of such termination shall be exercisable
             until the later of: (i) the scheduled termination of Holder's then
             effective employment agreement with the Corporation, or (ii) one
             year from the date of such termination. All remaining Options not
             exercisable at the time of such termination shall lapse and be of
             no further force and effect.

         3. Definitions. As used in this Option Agreement, the following terms
shall be defined as set forth hereafter. Unless otherwise defined herein, all
terms used in this Option Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed within the
Plan.

         (a) For the purposes of this Option, the term "Change of Control" shall
             have the meaning ascribed thereto in Holder's then effective
             employment agreement with the Corporation; and if Holder remains
             employed by the Corporation at a time when no employment agreement
             is in effect, the term "Change of Control" shall have the meaning
             ascribed thereto in the Plan.

         (b) "For Cause" shall be defined as provided in the Holder's then
             effective employment agreement with the Corporation.

             respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.

         (b) This Agreement will be governed and interpreted in accordance with
             the laws of the State of Delaware, and may be executed in more than
             one counterpart, each of which shall constitute an original
             document.

                  1.3 No alterations, amendments, changes or additions to this
agreement will be binding upon either the Corporation or Holder unless reduced
to writing and signed by both parties.

                                   Schedule A

1. Holder: Bohn Crain

2. Grant Date: January 10, 2002

3. Number of Shares of Common Stock covered by the Option: 150,000

4. Exercise Price: $1.78 (Fair Market Value of Common Stock on the trading day
   immediately before the Grant Date).

5. The Option shall vest in accordance with the following schedule:

   (a) General Vesting Provisions:

   (i)    Options to purchase 50,000 shares shall vest on January 10, 2003,
          provided Holder remains continuously employed by the Corporation from
          the Grant Date through January 10, 2003; and if Holder shall not
          remain continuously employed by the Corporation through January 10,
          2003, he shall forfeit upon such termination of Service (as defined in
          the Plan), the right to vest in any of the Options granted under this
          Agreement;

   (ii)   thereafter, commencing January 11, 2003, options to purchase 4,166.67
          shares shall vest on a monthly basis at the beginning of each month,
          for a period of 24 consecutive months for as long, during that
          24-month period, that Holder remains continuously employed by the
          Corporation; and once a termination of Service occurs, all unvested
          Options as of the date of the termination of Service shall no longer
          continue to vest after the end of the month preceding the month in
          which the termination of Service occurred, and thereafter Holder
          forfeits any and all rights to any unvested Options;

   (b) Upon a termination by Holder for Good Reason or by the Corporation other
       than For Cause:

   (iii)  If during the Employment Term the Holder shall cease to perform
          Service to the Corporation as a result of the termination of Holder's
          employment by the Corporation other than For Cause or by Holder for
          Good Reason, then notwithstanding any provisions otherwise contained
          in the Plan or this Option Agreement, Holder shall upon such
          termination automatically vest in that number of additional Options as
          he would have otherwise been entitled had he remained in the Service
          of the Corporation through that period for which he is entitled to
          severance payments under his then effective employment agreement with
          the Corporation;

   (c) Upon a Change of Control:

   (iv)   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Plan, or as set
          forth above, in the event of a Change of Control during the term of
          Holder's employment with the Corporation, all of the Options granted
          hereunder shall fully vest as of the date of the Change of Control;

   (d) Other:

   (v)    upon whatever earlier dates as are permitted by the Corporation in its
          sole discretion; or

   (vi)   as otherwise provided for, and in accordance with, the terms and
          provisions of the Plan.

6. Once a termination of Service occurs, all Options to which Holder is then
   entitled to exercise may only be exercised, if at all, in accordance with,
   and subject to, the terms and provisions of the Plan, unless otherwise
   provided for in this Option Agreement.
