power to determine all questions of policy and expediency that may arise in the

and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:

                  (i)      To determine when and how Purchase Rights to purchase
shares of Common Stock shall be granted and the provisions of each Offering of
such Purchase Rights (which need not be identical).

Corporations of the Company shall be eligible to participate in the Plan.

                  (iii)    To construe and interpret the Plan and Purchase

<PAGE>

                  (v)      Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform
such acts as it deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of
the Company and its Related Corporations and to carry out the intent that the
Plan be treated as an Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

         (c)      The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a
Committee of the Board composed of not fewer than two (2) members of the Board.
If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in
connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed
by the Board, subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the
provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. The
Board may abolish the Committee at any time and revest in the Board the
administration of the Plan. If administration is delegated to a Committee,
references to the Board in this Plan and in the Offering document shall
thereafter be to the Board or the Committee, as the case may be.

4.       SHARES OF COMMON STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.

         (a)      Subject to the provisions of Section 14 relating to
adjustments upon changes in securities, the shares of Common Stock that may be
sold pursuant to Purchase Rights granted under the Plan shall not exceed in the
aggregate five hundred thousand (500,000) shares of Common Stock, plus an annual
increase to be added on the date of the annual meeting of the stockholders of
the Company, commencing in 2001 and ending in (and including) 2009, equal to the
least of (i) one percent (1%) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the
last day of the preceding calendar year (rounded to the nearest whole share);
(ii) one million (1,000,000) shares of Common Stock; or (iii) such number of
shares of Common Stock as determined by the Board; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no
event shall more than six million (6,000,000) shares of Common Stock be sold
pursuant to Purchase Rights granted under the Plan. If any Purchase Right
granted under the Plan shall for any reason terminate without having been
exercised, the shares of Common Stock not purchased under such Purchase Right
shall again become available for the Plan.

         (b)      The shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan may be unissued
shares or shares that have been bought on the open market at prevailing market
prices or otherwise.

5.       GRANT OF PURCHASE RIGHTS; OFFERING.

         (a)      The Board may from time to time grant or provide for the grant
of Purchase Rights to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Plan to Eligible
Employees in an Offering (consisting of one or more Purchase Periods) on an
Offering Date or Offering Dates selected by the Board. Each Offering shall be in
such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem
appropriate, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 423(b)(5) of
the Code that all Employees granted Purchase Rights to purchase shares of Common
Stock under the Plan shall have the same rights and privileges. The terms and
conditions of an Offering shall be incorporated by reference into the Plan and
treated as part of the Plan. The provisions of separate Offerings need not be
identical, but each Offering shall include (through incorporation of the
provisions of this Plan by reference in the document comprising the Offering or
otherwise) the period during which the Offering shall be effective, which period
shall not

                                     - 4 -
<PAGE>

exceed twenty-seven (27) months beginning with the Offering Date, and the
substance of the provisions contained in Sections 6 through 9, inclusive.

         (b)      If a Participant has more than one Purchase Right outstanding
under the Plan, unless he or she otherwise indicates in agreements or notices
delivered hereunder: (i) each agreement or notice delivered by that Participant
shall be deemed to apply to all of his or her Purchase Rights under the Plan,
and (ii) a Purchase Right with a lower exercise price (or an earlier-granted
Purchase Right, if different Purchase Rights have identical exercise prices)
shall be exercised to the fullest possible extent before a Purchase Right with a
higher exercise price (or a later-granted Purchase Right, if different Purchase
Rights have identical exercise prices) shall be exercised.

6.       ELIGIBILITY.

         (a)      Purchase Rights may be granted only to Employees of the
Company or, as the Board may designate as provided in subsection 3(b), to
Employees of a Related Corporation. Except as provided in subsection 6(b), an
Employee shall not be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights under the Plan
unless, on the Offering Date, such Employee has been in the employ of the
Company or the Related Corporation, as the case may be, for such continuous
period preceding such Offering Date as the Board may require, but in no event
shall the required period of continuous employment be greater than two (2)
years. In addition, the Board may provide that no Employee shall be eligible to
be granted Purchase Rights under the Plan unless, on the Offering Date, such
Employee's customary employment with the Company or a Related Corporation is
more than twenty (20) hours per week and more than five (5) months per calendar
year.

         (b)      The Board may provide that each person who, during the course
of an Offering, first becomes an Eligible Employee shall, on a date or dates
specified in the Offering which coincides with the day on which such person
becomes an Eligible Employee or which occurs thereafter, receive a Purchase
Right under that Offering, which Purchase Right shall thereafter be deemed to be
a part of that Offering. Such Purchase Right shall have the same characteristics
as any Purchase Rights originally granted under that Offering, as described
herein, except that:

                  (i)      the date on which such Purchase Right is granted
shall be the "Offering Date" of such Purchase Right for all purposes, including
determination of the exercise price of such Purchase Right;

                  (ii)     the period of the Offering with respect to such
Purchase Right shall begin on its Offering Date and end coincident with the end
of such Offering; and

                  (iii)    the Board may provide that if such person first
becomes an Eligible Employee within a specified period of time before the end of
the Offering, he or she shall not receive any Purchase Right under that
Offering.

         (c)      No Employee shall be eligible for the grant of any Purchase
Rights under the Plan if, immediately after any such Purchase Rights are
granted, such Employee owns stock

                                     - 5 -
<PAGE>

possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value
of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Related Corporation. For
purposes of this subsection 6(c), the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall
apply in determining the stock ownership of any Employee, and stock which such
Employee may purchase under all outstanding Purchase Rights and options shall be
treated as stock owned by such Employee.

         (d)      An Eligible Employee may be granted Purchase Rights under the
Plan only if such Purchase Rights, together with any other Purchase Rights
granted under all Employee Stock Purchase Plans of the Company and any Related
Corporations, as specified by Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, do not permit such
Eligible Employee's Purchase Rights to purchase stock of the Company or any
Related Corporation to accrue at a rate which exceeds twenty five thousand
dollars ($25,000) of Fair Market Value of such stock (determined at the time
such Purchase Rights are granted) for each calendar year in which such Purchase
Rights are outstanding at any time.

         (e)      Officers of the Company and any designated Related Corporation
shall be eligible to participate in Offerings under the Plan. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Board may provide in an Offering that Employees who are
highly compensated Employees within the meaning of Section 423(b)(4)(D) of the
Code shall not be eligible to participate.

7.       PURCHASE RIGHTS; PURCHASE PRICE.

         (a)      On each Offering Date, each Eligible Employee, pursuant to an
Offering made under the Plan, shall be granted a Purchase Right to purchase up
to the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable either with a percentage or
with a maximum dollar amount, as designated by the Board, but in either case not
exceeding fifteen percent (15%), of such Employee's Earnings (as defined by the
Board in each Offering) during the period which begins on the Offering Date (or
such later date as the Board determines for a particular Offering) and ends on
the date stated in the Offering, which date shall be no later than the end of
the Offering.

         (b)      The Board shall establish one (1) or more Purchase Dates
during an Offering as of which Purchase Rights granted under the Plan shall be
exercised and purchases of shares of Common Stock carried out in accordance with
such Offering.

         (c)      In connection with each Offering made under the Plan, the
Board may specify a maximum amount of shares of Common Stock that may be
purchased by any Participant as well as a maximum aggregate amount of shares of
Common Stock that may be purchased by all Participants pursuant to such
Offering. In addition, in connection with each Offering that contains more than
one Purchase Date, the Board may specify a maximum aggregate amount of shares of
Common Stock which may be purchased by all Participants on any given Purchase
Date under the Offering. If the aggregate purchase of shares of Common Stock
upon exercise of Purchase Rights granted under the Offering would exceed any
such maximum aggregate amount, then, in the absence of any Board action to
otherwise, a pro rata allocation of the shares of Common Stock available in as
nearly a uniform manner as shall be practicable and equitable.

                                     - 6 -
<PAGE>

         (d)      The purchase price of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant
to Purchase Rights granted under the Plan shall be not less than the lesser of:

                  (i)      an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the
Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Offering Date; or

                  (ii)     an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the
Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Purchase Date.

8.       PARTICIPATION; WITHDRAWAL; TERMINATION.

         (a)      An Eligible Employee may become a Participant in the Plan
pursuant to an Offering by delivering a participation agreement to the Company
within the time specified in the Offering, in such form as the Company provides.
Each such agreement shall authorize payroll deductions of up to the maximum
percentage specified by the Board of such Employee's Earnings during the
Offering (as defined in each Offering). The payroll deductions made for each
Participant shall be credited to a bookkeeping account for such Participant
under the Plan and shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company. To
the extent provided in the Offering, a Participant may reduce (including to
zero) or increase such payroll deductions. To the extent provided in the
Offering, a Participant may begin such payroll deductions after the beginning of
the Offering. A Participant may make additional payments into his or her account
only if specifically provided for in the Offering and only if the Participant
has not already had the maximum permitted amount withheld during the Offering.

         (b)      At any time during an Offering, a Participant may terminate
his or her payroll deductions under the Plan and withdraw from the Offering by
delivering to the Company a notice of withdrawal in such form as the Company
provides. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of the
Offering, except as provided by the Board in the Offering. Upon such withdrawal
from the Offering by a Participant, the Company shall distribute to such
Participant all of his or her accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to the
extent, if any, such deductions have been used to acquire shares of Common Stock
for the Participant) under the Offering, without interest (unless otherwise
specified in the Offering), and such Participant's interest in that Offering
shall be automatically terminated. A Participant's withdrawal from an Offering
shall have no effect upon such Participant's eligibility to participate in any
other Offerings under the Plan but such Participant shall be required to deliver
a new participation agreement in order to participate in subsequent Offerings
under the Plan.

         (c)      Purchase Rights granted pursuant to any Offering under the
Plan shall terminate immediately upon cessation of any participating Employee's
employment with the Company or a designated Related Corporation for any reason
(subject to any post-employment participation period required by law) or other
lack of eligibility. The Company shall distribute to such terminated Employee
all of his or her accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to the extent, if any,
such deductions have been used to acquire shares of Common Stock for the
terminated Employee) under the Offering, without interest (unless otherwise
specified in the Offering).

                                     - 7 -
<PAGE>

         (d)      Purchase Rights granted under the Plan shall not be
transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, or by a beneficiary designation as provided in Section 13 and,
during a Participant's lifetime, shall be exercisable only by such Participant.

9.       EXERCISE.

         (a)      On each Purchase Date during an Offering, each Participant's
accumulated payroll deductions and other additional payments specifically
provided for in the Offering (without any increase for interest) shall be
applied to the purchase of shares of Common Stock up to the maximum amount of
shares of Common Stock permitted pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the
applicable Offering, at the purchase price specified in the Offering. No
fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of Purchase Rights granted
under the Plan unless specifically provided for in the Offering.

         (b)      The amount, if any, of accumulated payroll deductions
remaining in each Participant's account after the purchase of shares of Common
Stock which is less than the amount required to purchase one share of Common
Stock on the final Purchase Date of an Offering shall be held in each such
Participant's account for the purchase of shares of Common Stock under the next
Offering under the Plan, unless such Participant withdraws from such next
Offering, as provided in subsection 8(b), or is not eligible to participate in
such Offering, as provided in Section 6, in which case such amount shall be
distributed to the Participant after said final Purchase Date, without interest
(unless otherwise specified in the Offering). The amount, if any, of accumulated
payroll deductions remaining in any Participant's account after the purchase of
shares of Common Stock that is equal to the amount required to purchase one (1)
or more whole shares of Common Stock on the final Purchase Date of the Offering
shall be distributed in full to the Participant at the end of the Offering
without interest (unless otherwise specified in the Offering).

         (c)      No Purchase Rights granted under the Plan may be exercised to
any extent unless the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such exercise
under the Plan (including Purchase Rights granted thereunder) are covered by an
effective registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act and the Plan is
in material compliance with all applicable federal, state, foreign and other
securities and other laws applicable to the Plan. If on a Purchase Date in any
Offering hereunder the shares of Common Stock are not so registered or the Plan
is not in such compliance, no Purchase Rights granted under the Plan or any
Offering shall be exercised on such Purchase Date, and the Purchase Date shall
be delayed until the shares of Common Stock are subject to such an effective
registration statement and the Plan is in such compliance, except that the
Purchase Date shall not be delayed more than twelve (12) months and the Purchase
Date shall in no event be more than twenty-seven (27) months from the Offering
Date. If, on the Purchase Date under any Offering hereunder, as delayed to the
maximum extent permissible, the shares of Common Stock are not registered and
the Plan is not in such compliance, no Purchase Rights granted under the Plan or
any Offering shall be exercised and all payroll deductions accumulated during
the Offering (reduced to the extent, if any, such deductions have been used

                                     - 8 -
<PAGE>

to acquire shares of Common Stock) shall be distributed to the Participants,
without interest (unless otherwise specified in the Offering).

10.      COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

         (a)      During the terms of the Purchase Rights granted under the
Plan, the Company shall ensure that the amount of shares of Common Stock
required to satisfy such Purchase Rights are available.

         (b)      The Company shall seek to obtain from each federal, state,
foreign or other regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the
Plan such authority as may be required to issue and sell shares of Common Stock
upon exercise of the Purchase Rights granted under the Plan. If, after
reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory
commission or agency the authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary
for the lawful issuance and sale of shares of Common Stock under the Plan, the
Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such Purchase Rights unless and until
such authority is obtained.

11.      USE OF PROCEEDS FROM SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.

         Proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Purchase
Rights granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company.

12.      RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER.

         A Participant shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any
of the rights of a holder with respect to, shares of Common Stock subject to
Purchase Rights granted under the Plan unless and until the Participant's shares
of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of Purchase Rights under the Plan are
recorded in the books of the Company (or its transfer agent).

13.      DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY.

         (a)      A Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary
who is to receive any shares of Common Stock and/or cash, if any, from the
Participant's account under the Plan in the event of such Participant's death
subsequent to the end of an Offering but prior to delivery to the Participant of
such shares of Common Stock or cash. In addition, a Participant may file a
written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the
Participant's account under the Plan in the event of such Participant's death
during an Offering.

         (b)      The Participant may change such designation of beneficiary at
any time by written notice. In the event of the death of a Participant and in
the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at
the time of such Participant's death, the Company shall deliver such shares of
Common Stock and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the
Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the
knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its sole discretion, may deliver such
shares of Common Stock and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more
dependents or relatives of the

                                     - 9 -
<PAGE>

Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company,
then to such other person as the Company may designate.

14.      ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN SECURITIES; CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.

         (a)      If any change is made in the shares of Common Stock, subject
to the Plan, or subject to any Purchase Right, 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 Plan shall be appropriately
adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject
to the Plan pursuant to subsection 4(a), and the outstanding Purchases Rights
shall be appropriately adjusted in the class(es), number of shares and purchase
limits of such outstanding Purchase Rights. The Board shall make such
adjustments, and its determination 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 a Corporate Transaction, then: (i) any
surviving or acquiring corporation may assume Purchase Rights outstanding under
the Plan or may substitute similar rights (including a right to acquire the same
consideration paid to stockholders in the transaction described in this
subsection 14(b)) for those outstanding under the Plan, or (ii) in the event any
surviving or acquiring corporation does not assume such Purchase Rights or does
not substitute similar rights for those outstanding under the Plan, then, the
Participants' accumulated payroll deductions (exclusive of any accumulated
interest which cannot be applied toward the purchase of shares of Common Stock
under the terms of the Offering) shall be used to purchase shares of Common
Stock immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction under the ongoing Offering
and the Participants' Purchase Rights under the ongoing Offering thereafter
terminated.

15.      AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN.

         (a)      The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the
Plan. However, except as provided in Section 14 relating to adjustments upon
changes in securities and except as to amendments solely to benefit the
administration of the Plan, to take account of a change in legislation or to
obtain or maintain favorable tax, exchange control or regulatory treatment for
Participants or the Company or any Related Corporation, no amendment shall be
effective unless approved by the stockholders of the Company to the extent
stockholder approval is necessary for the Plan to satisfy the requirements of

1.       GRANT; OFFERING DATE.

         (a)      The Board hereby authorizes an Offering pursuant to the
following terms.

         (b)      The first Offering hereunder (the "Initial Offering") shall

ending on ________________. Thereafter, an Offering shall begin on each
[_________] and each Offering shall be two (2) years in duration, with four (4)
Purchase Periods each of which shall be approximately six (6) months in length.
Each Offering shall end on the day prior to the first day of the subsequent

the last day of a Purchase Period or of an Offering, as the case may be.

         (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) if any Offering Date falls
on a day that is not a Trading Day, then such Offering Date shall instead fall

         (d)      Prior to the commencement of any Offering, the Board may

granting of Purchase Rights pursuant to each Offering hereunder shall occur on

Value of the shares of Common Stock is less than it was on the Offering Date for
that Offering, that day shall become the next Offering Date, and the Offering
that would otherwise have continued in effect shall immediately terminate and
the Employees who were employed in the terminated Offering shall automatically
be enrolled in the new Offering that starts such day.

2.       ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES.

                                     - 1 -
<PAGE>

         (a)      All Employees of the Company and each of its Related
Corporations incorporated in the United States, shall be granted Purchase Rights
to purchase shares of Common Stock under each Offering on the Offering Date of
such Offering, provided that each such Employee otherwise meets the employment
requirements of subsection 6(a) of the Plan and has been continuously employed
by the Company or a Related Corporation for at least ten (10) days as of the
Offering Date.

         (b)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Employees shall

part-time or seasonal Employees whose customary employment is twenty (20) hours
per week or less or five (5) months per calendar year or less; or (ii) five
percent (5%) stockholders (including ownership through unexercised and/or
unvested stock options) as described in subsection 6(c) of the Plan.

         (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, each person who first becomes
an Eligible Employee during any Offering shall, on the day after the FIRST
Purchase Date during that Offering in which such person FIRST satisfies the
service requirement to become an Eligible Employee, receive a Purchase Right
under such Offering, which Purchase Right shall thereafter be deemed to be a
part of the Offering. Such Purchase Right shall have the same characteristics as
any Purchase Rights originally granted under the Offering except that:

                  (i)      the date on which such Purchase Right is granted
shall be the "Offering Date" of such Purchase Right for all purposes, including
determination of the exercise price of such Purchase Right; and

                  (ii)     the Offering for such Purchase Right shall begin on
its Offering Date and end coincident with the end of the ongoing Offering.

3.       PURCHASE RIGHTS.

         (a)      Subject to the limitations contain herein and in the Plan, on
each Offering Date each Eligible Employee shall be granted a Purchase Right to
purchase the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable with up to fifteen
percent (15%) of such Eligible Employee's Earnings paid during the period of
such Offering beginning after such Eligible Employee first commences
participation; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no Eligible Employee may have more than
fifteen percent (15%) of such Eligible Employee's Earnings applied to purchase
shares of Common Stock under all ongoing Offerings under the Plan and all other
plans of the Company intended to qualify as Employee Stock Purchase Plans under
Section 423 of the Code.

         (b)      For this Offering, "Earnings" means the total compensation
paid to an Employee, including all salary, wages (including amounts elected to
be deferred by the employee, that would otherwise have been paid, under any cash
or deferred arrangement or other deferred compensation program established by
the Company), overtime pay, commissions, bonuses, and other remuneration paid
directly to the Employee, but excluding profit sharing, the cost of employee

similar items of compensation.

         (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum number of shares an
Eligible Employee may purchase on any Purchase Date in an Offering shall be such
number of shares as has a Fair Market Value (determined as of the Offering Date
for such Offering) equal to (x) $25,000 multiplied by the number of calendar
years in which the Purchase Right under such Offering has been outstanding at
any time, minus (y) the Fair Market Value of any other shares (determined as of
the relevant Offering Date with respect to such shares) which, for purposes of
the limitation of Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, are attributed to any of such
calendar years in which the Purchase Right is outstanding. The amount in clause
(y) of the previous sentence shall be determined in accordance with regulations
applicable under Section 423(b)(8) of the Code based on (i) the number of shares
previously purchased with respect to such calendar years pursuant to 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 Section 423 of
the Code, and (ii) the number of shares subject to other Purchase Rights
outstanding on the Offering Date for such Offering pursuant to the Plan or any
other such Company Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that an Eligible Employee may
purchase on any Purchase Date during an Offering shall not exceed one thousand
(1,000) shares.

         (d)      The maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
available to be purchased by all Eligible Employees under an Offering shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock remaining available under the Plan on the
Offering Date. If the aggregate purchase of shares of Common Stock upon exercise
of Purchase Rights granted under the Offering would exceed the maximum aggregate
number of shares available, the Board shall make a pro rata allocation of the
shares available in a uniform and equitable manner.

4.       PURCHASE PRICE.

         The purchase price of shares of Common Stock under the Offering shall
be the lesser of: (i) eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of such
shares of Common Stock on the Offering Date or (ii) or eighty-five percent (85%)
of the Fair Market Value of such shares of Common Stock on the Purchase Date, in
each case rounded up to the nearest whole cent per Share. For the Initial
Offering, the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock at the time when
the Offering commences shall be the price per share at which shares are first
sold to the public in the Company's initial public offering as specified in the
final prospectus for that initial public offering.

5.       PARTICIPATION.

         (a)      An Eligible Employee may elect to participate in an Offering
on the Offering Date or as of the first day following any Purchase Date;
provided, however, that a person who first becomes an Eligible Employee during
an Offering may elect to participate at the Offering Date applicable to such
Eligible Employee in accordance with subsection 2(b) of this Offering document.
An Eligible Employee shall become a Participant in an Offering by delivering an

                                     - 3 -

enrollment form authorizing payroll deductions. Such deductions must be in whole
percentages of Earnings, with a minimum percentage of one percent (1%) and a
maximum percentage of fifteen percent (15%). A Participant may not make
additional payments into his or her account. The agreement shall be made on such
enrollment form as the Company provides, and must be delivered to the Company
prior to the date participation is to be effective, unless a later time for
filing the enrollment form is set by the Company for all Eligible Employees with
respect to a given Offering.

         (b)      A Participant may increase or reduce (including to zero) his
or her participation level once during the six (6) month period ending on a
Purchase Date, excluding only each ten (10) day period immediately preceding a
Purchase Date (or such shorter period of time as determined by the Company and
communicated to Participants). In addition, a Participant may reduce his or her
participation level to zero percent (0%) at any time during the course of an
Offering, excluding only each ten (10) day period immediately preceding a
Purchase Date (or such shorter period of time as 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 Related Corporation in such
form and at such time as the Company provides.

         (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 shares of 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 in accordance with the terms
thereof.

6.       PURCHASES.

         Subject to the limitations contained herein, on each Purchase Date,
each Participant's accumulated payroll deductions (without any increase for
interest) shall be applied to the purchase of whole shares, up to the maximum
number of shares permitted under the Plan and the Offering.

7.       NOTICES AND AGREEMENTS.

         Any notices or agreements provided for in an Offering or the Plan shall
be given in writing, in a form provided by the Company, and unless specifically
provided for in the Plan or this Offering, shall be deemed effectively given
upon receipt or, in the case of notices and agreements delivered by the Company,
five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid.

8.       EXERCISE CONTINGENT ON STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL.

         The Purchase Rights granted under an Offering are subject to the
approval of the Plan by the stockholders as required for the Plan to obtain
treatment as a tax-qualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

9.       OFFERING SUBJECT TO PLAN.

         Each Offering is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, and the
provisions of the Plan are hereby made a part of the Offering. The Offering is

event of any conflict between the provisions of an Offering and those of the
Plan (including interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which may
from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan), the
provisions of the Plan shall control.

under the Plan to all Non-Employee Directors.

6.       NON-DISCRETIONARY GRANTS.

legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board. The purchase price of
Common Stock acquired pursuant to an Option that is paid by delivery to the
Company of other Common Stock acquired, directly or indirectly from the Company,
shall be paid only by shares of the Common Stock of the Company that have been
held for more than six (6) months (or such longer or shorter period of time
required to avoid a charge to earnings for financial accounting purposes). At
any time that the Company is incorporated in Delaware, payment of the Common
Stock's "par value," as defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law, shall
not be made by deferred payment.

         In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest shall be
compounded at least annually and shall be charged at the minimum rate of
interest necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable
provisions of the Code, of any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest
under the deferred payment arrangement.

         (d)      TRANSFERABILITY. An Option shall be transferable to the extent
provided in the Option Agreement. If the Option Agreement does not provide for
transferability, then the Option shall not be transferable except by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the
lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Optionholder may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in
a form

                                       5
<PAGE>

satisfactory to the Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the
death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

         (e)      VESTING GENERALLY. Options shall vest and become exercisable
as follows:

                  (i)      Initial Grants shall provide for vesting of 1/36th of
the shares each month after the date of grant.

                  (ii)     Annual Grants shall provide for vesting of 1/12th of
the shares each month after the date of the grant.

         (f)      TERMINATION OF CONTINUOUS SERVICE. In the event an
Optionholder's Continuous Service terminates (other than upon the Optionholder's
death or Disability), the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the
extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise it as of the date of
termination) but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i)
the date three (3) months following the termination of the Optionholder's
Continuous Service, or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set
forth in the Option Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does not
exercise his or her Option within the time specified in the Option Agreement,
the Option shall terminate.

         (g)      EXTENSION OF TERMINATION DATE. If the exercise of the Option
following the termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service (other than
upon the Optionholder's death or Disability) would be prohibited at any time
solely because the issuance of shares would violate the registration
requirements under the Securities Act, then the Option shall terminate on the
earlier of (i) the expiration of the term of the Option set forth in subsection
7(a) or (ii) the expiration of a period of three (3) months after the
termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service during which the exercise
of the Option would not be in violation of such registration requirements.

         (h)      DISABILITY OF OPTIONHOLDER. In the event an Optionholder's
Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder's Disability, the
Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder
was entitled to exercise it as of the date of termination), but only within such
period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date twelve (12) months
following such termination or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as
set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does
not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option
shall terminate.

         (i)      DEATH OF OPTIONHOLDER. In the event (i) an Optionholder's
Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder's death or (ii)
the Optionholder dies within the three-month period after the termination of the
Optionholder's Continuous Service for a reason other than death, then the Option
may be exercised (to the extent the Optionholder was entitled to exercise the
Option as of the date of death) by the Optionholder's estate, by a person who
acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance or by a
person designated to exercise the Option upon the Optionholder's death, but only
within the period ending on the earlier of (1) the date eighteen (18) months
following the date of death or (2) the expiration of

                                       6
<PAGE>

the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after death,
the Option is not exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall
terminate.

8.       COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

         (a)      AVAILABILITY OF SHARES. During the terms of the Options, the
Company shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common Stock
required to satisfy such Options.

         (b)      SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. The Company shall seek to obtain
from each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such
authority as may be required to grant Options and to issue and sell shares of
Common Stock upon exercise of the Options; provided, however, that this
undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act
the Plan, any Option or any stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such
Option. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any
such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel for the Company
deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of stock under the Plan, the
Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell stock
upon exercise of such Options unless and until such authority is obtained.

9.       USE OF PROCEEDS FROM STOCK.

         Proceeds from the sale of stock pursuant to Options shall constitute
general funds of the Company.

10.      MISCELLANEOUS.

         (a)      STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. No Optionholder 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 such Option unless and until such Optionholder has satisfied all
requirements for exercise of the Option pursuant to its terms.

         (b)      NO SERVICE RIGHTS. Nothing in the Plan or any instrument
executed or Option granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Optionholder
any right to continue to serve the Company as a Non-Employee Director or shall
affect the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate (i) the employment
of an Employee with or without notice and with or without cause, (ii) the
service of a Consultant pursuant to the terms of such Consultant's agreement
with the Company or an Affiliate or (iii) the service of a Director pursuant to
the Bylaws of the Company or an Affiliate, and any applicable provisions of the
corporate law of the state in which the Company or the Affiliate is
incorporated, as the case may be.

         (c)      INVESTMENT ASSURANCES. The Company may require an
Optionholder, as a condition of exercising or acquiring stock under any Option,
(i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the
Optionholder's knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or
to employ a purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who
is knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business matters and that he
or she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser
representative, the merits and

                                       7
<PAGE>

risks of exercising the Option; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory
to the Company stating that the Optionholder is acquiring the stock subject to
the Option for the Optionholder's own account and not with any present intention
of selling or otherwise distributing the stock. The foregoing requirements, and
any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if
(iii) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise or acquisition of stock under
the Option has been registered under a then currently effective registration
statement under the Securities Act or (iv) 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 under the Plan 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.

         (d)      WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS. The Optionholder may satisfy any
federal, state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or
acquisition of stock under an Option by any of the following means (in addition
to the Company's right to withhold from any compensation paid to the
Optionholder by the Company) or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a
cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold shares from the shares of
the Common Stock otherwise issuable to the Optionholder as a result of the
exercise or acquisition of stock under the Option, provided, however, that no
shares of Common Stock are withheld with a value exceeding the minimum amount of
tax required to be withheld by law; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and
unencumbered shares of the Common Stock.

11.      ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK.

         (a)      CAPITALIZATION ADJUSTMENTS. If any change is made in the stock
subject to the Plan, or subject to any 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 Plan will be appropriately
adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of securities subject both to the
Plan pursuant to subsection 4(a) and to the nondiscretionary Options specified
in Section 5, and the outstanding Options will be appropriately adjusted in the
class(es) and number of securities and price per share of stock subject to such
outstanding Options. The Board shall make such adjustments, and its
determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any
convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a transaction
"without receipt of consideration" by the Company.)

         (b)      DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION. In the event of a dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, then all outstanding Options shall terminate
immediately prior to such event.

         (c)      ASSET SALE, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR REVERSE MERGER. In the
event of (i) a sale, lease or other disposition of all or 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

                                       8
<PAGE>

outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the
merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise
(individually, a "Corporate Transaction"), then any surviving corporation or
acquiring corporation shall assume any Options outstanding under the Plan or
shall substitute similar Options (including an option to acquire the same
consideration paid to the stockholders in the Corporate Transaction for those
outstanding under the Plan). In the event any surviving corporation or acquiring
corporation refuses to assume such Options or to substitute similar Options for
those outstanding under the Plan, then with respect to Options held by
Optionholders whose Continuous Service has not terminated, the vesting of such
Options (and the time during which such Options may be exercised) shall be
accelerated in full, and the Options shall terminate if not exercised at or
prior to such Corporate Transaction. With respect to any other Options
outstanding under the Plan, such Options shall terminate if not exercised prior
to such Corporate Transaction.

12.      AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND OPTIONS.

         (a)      AMENDMENT OF PLAN. The Board at any time, and from time to
time, may amend the Plan. However, except as provided in Section 11 relating to
adjustments upon changes in stock, no amendment shall be effective unless
approved by the stockholders of the Company to the extent stockholder approval
is necessary to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or any Nasdaq or
securities exchange listing requirements.

         (b)      STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL. The Board may, in its sole discretion,
submit any other amendment to the Plan for stockholder approval.

         (c)      NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS. Rights under any Option granted
before amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan
unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the Optionholder and (ii) the
Optionholder consents in writing.

         (d)      AMENDMENT OF OPTIONS. The Board at any time, and from time to
time, may amend the terms of any one or more Options; provided, however, that
the rights under any Option shall not be impaired by any such amendment unless
(i) the Company requests the consent of the Optionholder and (ii) the
Optionholder consents in writing.

13.      TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.

         (a)      PLAN TERM. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any
time. No Options may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or
after it is terminated.

         (b)      NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS. Suspension or termination of the Plan
shall not impair rights and obligations under any Option granted while the Plan
is in effect except with the written consent of the Optionholder.

                                       9

14.      EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.

         The Plan shall become effective on the IPO Date, but no Option shall be
exercised unless and until the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the
Company, which approval shall be within twelve (12) months before or after the
date the Plan is adopted by the Board.

15.      CHOICE OF LAW.

         All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation
of this Plan shall be governed by the law of the State of California, without
regard to such state's conflict of laws rules.
