EXHIBIT 10.2
                                 VERONIQUE, INC.

                      NON-STATUTORY STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
                      ------------------------------------

         1.       GRANT OF OPTION; VESTING. VERONIQUE, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to JEFFREY M. BRINN ("Optionee") a
fully vested option to purchase an aggregate of Forty Thousand (40,000) shares
of Common Stock, $.001 par value ("Common Stock"), of the Company at $0.75 per
share (which the Company has determined to be one-half the current fair market
value of the Company's Common Stock as of the grant date), purchasable as set
forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this option. This option
is not intended to qualify as an incentive stock option within the meaning of
Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

         This option initially will not be vested, but shall vest at the rate of
two thousand five hundred (2,500) shares per month on the first day of each
month that this Agreement remains in effect, beginning July 1, 1998. Any
unvested portion of the option shall lapse in its entirety upon the earlier of
the Expiration Date or the termination of the Consulting Agreement between the
Company and Optionee dated June ___, 1998, but any portion of the option that
has vested prior to termination shall remain exercisable until the Expiration
Date. The option shall be transferable in whole or in part as to any vested
portion.

         2.       EXERCISE OF OPTION; AND PROVISIONS FOR TERMINATION.

                  (a)      EXPIRATION. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, this option may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time prior
to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 30, 2003 (hereinafter the "Expiration
Date"). The right of exercise shall be cumulative so that if the option is not
exercised to the maximum extent permissible at any time it shall be exercisable,
in whole or in part, with respect to all shares not so purchased at any time
prior to the Expiration Date. This option may not be exercised at any time after
the Expiration Date.

                  (b)      EXERCISE PROCEDURE. Subject to the conditions set
forth in this Agreement, this option shall be exercised by the delivery of
written notice of exercise to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company
specifying the number of shares to be purchased and the purchase price to be
paid therefor and accompanied by payment in full in accordance with Section 3.
Such exercise shall be effective upon receipt by the Treasurer of the Company of
such written notice together with the required payment. Optionee may purchase
fewer than the total number of shares covered hereby, provided that no partial
exercise of this option may be for any fractional share or for fewer than ten
whole shares.

                  (c)      EXERCISE PERIOD. Except as otherwise indicated by the
context, the term "Optionee," as used in this option, shall be deemed to include
the estate of the Optionee or any person who acquires the right to exercise this
option by bequest or inheritance or otherwise by reason of the death of the
Optionee.

                  (d)      CHANGES IN STOCK, ETC. In the event of a stock
dividend, stock split or combination of shares of Common Stock, recapitalization
or other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock
effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, appropriate and
proportionate adjustment shall be made in the number, kind and per share
exercise price of shares subject to this Option.

         3.       PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE.

                  (a)      METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the purchase price for
shares purchased upon exercise of this option shall be made by delivery to the
Company of cash or a check to the order of the Company

<PAGE>

in an amount equal to the purchase price of such shares, or by delivery to the
Company of shares of Common Stock of the Company then owned by the Optionee
having a fair market value equal in amount to the purchase price of such shares,
or by any combination of such methods of payment.

                  (b)      VALUATION OF SHARES TENDERED IN PAYMENT OF PURCHASE
PRICE. For the purposes hereof, the fair market value of any share of the
Company's Common Stock which may be delivered to the Company in exercise of this
option shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Company.

                  (c)      DELIVERY OF SHARES TENDERED IN PAYMENT OF PURCHASE
PRICE. If the Company permits the Optionee to exercise options by delivery of
shares of Common Stock of the Company, the certificate or certificates
representing the shares of Common Stock of the Company to be delivered shall be
duly executed in blank by the Optionee or shall be accompanied by a stock power
duly executed in blank suitable for purposes of transferring such shares to the
Company. Fractional shares of Common Stock of the Company will not be accepted
in payment of the purchase price of shares acquired upon exercise of this
option.

                  (d)      RESTRICTIONS UPON USE OF OPTION STOCK.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no shares of Common Stock of the Company may be
tendered in payment of the purchase price of shares purchased upon exercise of
this option if the shares to be so tendered were acquired within twelve (12)
months before the date of such tender, through the exercise of an option granted
under any stock option or restricted stock plan of the Company.

                  (e)      NET SPREAD UPON EXTRAORDINARY TRANSACTION. If at any
time while this option, or any portion hereof, is outstanding and unexpired
there shall be (i) a reorganization (other than a combination, reclassification,
exchange or subdivision of shares otherwise provided for herein), (ii) a merger
or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation in which the
Company is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in which the
Company is the surviving entity but the shares of the Company's capital stock
outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted by virtue of the
merger into other property whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise,
or (iii) a sale or transfer of the Company's properties and assets as, or
substantially as, an entirety to any other person resulting in a change of
control of the Company, then as a part of such reorganization, merger,
consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that the
holder of this option may exercise the option without tendering any cash or
securities and receive, in lieu of stock or any other securities, a "net spread"
payment in cash equal to the implied per-share transaction price of the
transaction effecting such change of control, as determined in good faith by the
Company's Board of Directors, minus the exercise price per share of the option,
if applicable.

         4.       DELIVERY OF SHARES; COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAW; ETC.

                  (a)      GENERAL. The Company shall, upon payment of the
option price for the number of shares purchased and paid for, make prompt
delivery of such shares to the Optionee, provided that if any law or regulation
requires the Company to take any action with respect to such shares before the
issuance thereof, then the date of delivery of such shares shall be extended for
the period necessary to complete such action.

                  (b)      LISTING, QUALIFICATION, ETC. This option shall be
subject to the requirement that if, at any time, counsel to the Company shall
determine that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares subject
hereto upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the
consent or approval of any governmental or regulatory body, is necessary as a
condition of, or in connection with, the issuance or purchase of shares
hereunder, this option may not be exercised, in whole or in part, unless such
listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been
effected or obtained on conditions acceptable to the Board of Directors. Nothing
herein shall be deemed to require the Company to apply for or to obtain such
listing, registration or qualification.

<PAGE>

                  5.       NONTRANSFERABILITY OF OPTION. Except as provided in
paragraph (c) of Section 2, this option is personal and no rights granted
hereunder may be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way
(whether by operation of law or otherwise) nor shall any such rights be subject
to execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer,
assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this option or of such
rights contrary to the provisions hereof, or upon the levy of any attachment or
similar process upon this option or such rights, this option and such rights
shall, at the election of the Company, become null and void.

                  6.       NO SPECIAL EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS. Nothing contained in
this option shall be construed or deemed by any person under any circumstances
to bind the Company to provide or continue any employment of the Optionee for
the period within which this option may be exercised or otherwise. However,
during the period of the Optionee's service to the Company, the Optionee shall
render diligently and faithfully the services which are agreed to be provided
and shall not take any action which directly or indirectly would be inconsistent
with the best interests of the Company.

                  7.       RIGHTS AS A SHAREHOLDER. The Optionee shall not have
any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares which may be purchased by
exercise of this option unless and until a certificate representing such shares
is duly issued and delivered to the Optionee. No adjustment shall be made for
dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such
stock certificate is issued.

                  8.       WITHHOLDING TAXES. The Company's obligation to
deliver shares upon the exercise of this option shall be subject to the
Optionee's satisfaction of all applicable federal, state and local income and
employment tax withholding requirements.

         9.       INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS; LEGEND.

                  (a)      REPRESENTATIONS. The Optionee represents, warrants
                  and covenants that:

                           (i)      Any shares purchased upon exercise of this
                  option shall be acquired for the Optionee's account for
                  investment only, and not with a view to, or for sale in
                  connection with, any distribution of the shares in violation
                  of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"), or any
                  rule or regulation under the Securities Act.

                           (ii)     The Optionee has had such opportunity as he
                  or she has deemed adequate to obtain from representatives of
                  the Company such information as is necessary to permit the
                  Optionee to evaluate the merits and risks of his or her
                  investment in the Company.

                           (iii)    The Optionee is able to bear the economic
                  risk of holding such shares acquired pursuant to the exercise
                  of this option for an indefinite period.

                           (iv)     The Optionee understands that (A) the shares
                  acquired pursuant to the exercise of this option will not be
                  registered under the Securities Act and are "restricted
                  securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the
                  Securities Act; (B) such shares cannot be sold, transferred or
                  otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered
                  under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is
                  then available; (C) in any event, the exemption from
                  registration under Rule 144 will not be available for at least
                  one year and even then will not be available unless a public
                  market then exists for the Common Stock, adequate information
                  concerning the Company is then available to the public, and
                  other terms and conditions of Rule 144 are complied with; and
                  (D) there is now no registration statement on file with the
                  Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to any stock
                  of the Company and

<PAGE>

                  the Company has no obligation or current intention to register
                  any shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of this option
                  under the Securities Act.

By making payment upon exercise of this option, the Optionee shall be deemed to
have reaffirmed, as of the date of such payment, the representations made in
this Section 9.

                  (b)      LEGEND ON STOCK CERTIFICATE. All stock certificates
representing shares of Common Stock issued to the Optionee upon exercise of this
option shall have affixed thereto a legend substantially in the following form,
in addition to any other legends required by applicable law:

                  "The shares of stock represented by this certificate have not
                  been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not
                  be transferred, sold or otherwise disposed of in the absence
                  of an effective registration statement with respect to the
                  shares evidenced by this certificate, filed and made effective
                  under the Securities Act of 1933, or an opinion of counsel
                  satisfactory to the Company to the effect that registration
                  under such Act is not required."

         10.      MISCELLANEOUS.

                  (a)      Except as provided herein, this option may not be
amended or otherwise modified unless evidenced in writing and signed by the
Company and the Optionee.

                  (b)      All notices under this option shall be mailed or
delivered by hand to the parties at their respective addresses set forth beneath
their names below or at such other address as may be designated in writing by
either of the parties to one another.

                  (c)      This option shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

                                STOCK OPTION PLAN

                                   ARTICLE 1.
                               GENERAL PROVISIONS
                               ------------------

         1.1.     PURPOSE OF THE PLAN

         This Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") is intended to promote the
interests of GLOBAL E TUTOR, INC., a Delaware corporation, (the "Corporation")
by providing eligible persons with the opportunity to acquire or increase their
proprietary interest in the Corporation as an incentive for them to remain in
the Service of the Corporation.

         Capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the
attached Appendix.

         1.2.     ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

                  a.       Prior to the Section 12(g) Registration Date, the
Plan shall be administered by the Board or a committee of the Board.

                  b.       Beginning with the Section 12(g) Registration Date,
the Primary Committee shall have sole and exclusive authority to administer the
Plan with respect to Section 16 Insiders. Administration of the Plan with
respect to all other persons eligible under the Plan may, at the Board's
discretion, be vested in the Primary Committee or a Secondary Committee, or the
Board may retain the power to administer the Plan with respect to all such
persons.

                  c.       Members of the Primary Committee or any Secondary
Committee shall serve for such period of time as the Board may determine and may
be removed by the Board at any time. The Board may also terminate the functions
of any Secondary Committee at any time and reassume all powers and authority
previously delegated to such committee.

                  d.       Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of
its administrative functions under the Plan, have full power and authority to
establish such rules and regulations as it may deem appropriate for proper
administration of the Plan and to make such determinations under, and issue such
interpretations of, the provisions of the Plan and any outstanding options
thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable. Decisions of the Plan
Administrator within the scope of its administrative functions under the Plan
shall be final and binding on all parties who have an interest in the Plan under
its jurisdiction or any option thereunder.

                  e.       Service on the Primary Committee or the Secondary
Committee shall constitute service as a Board member, and members of each such
committee shall accordingly be entitled to full indemnification and
reimbursement as Board members for their service on such committee. No member of
the Primary Committee or the Secondary Committee shall be liable for any act or
omission made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any option grants under
the Plan.

                  f.       Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of
its administrative jurisdiction under the Plan, have full authority (subject to
the provisions of the Plan) to determine which eligible persons are to receive
option grants, the time or times when such option grants are to be made, the
number of shares to be covered by each such grant, the status of the granted
option as either an Incentive Option or a Non-Statutory Option, the time or
times at which each option is to become exercisable, the vesting schedule (if
any) applicable to

<PAGE>

the option shares, the acceleration of such vesting schedule, the maximum term
for which the option is to remain outstanding, whether the option shares shall
be subject to rights of repurchase and/or rights of first refusal, and all other
terms and conditions of the option grants.

         1.3.     ELIGIBILITY

         The following persons shall be eligible to participate in the Plan:

                  a.       Employees, as to both Incentive and/or Non-Statutory
Options,

                  b.       non-employee members of the Board or the board of
directors of any Parent or Subsidiary as to Non-Statutory Options, and

                  c.       consultants and other independent advisors who
provide Services to the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary, as to
Non-Statutory Options.

         1.4.     STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

                  a.       The stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of
authorized but unissued Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the
Corporation on the open market. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock
which may be issued over the term of the Plan shall not exceed Five Million
(5,000,000) shares, which number of shares may be changed from time to time in
accordance with Section 3.4 below.

                  b.       Shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding options
shall be available for subsequent issuance under the Plan to the extent the
options expire or terminate for any reason prior to exercise in full. However,
should the Exercise Price be paid with shares of Common Stock or should shares
of Common Stock otherwise issuable under the Plan be withheld by the Corporation
in satisfaction of the withholding taxes incurred in connection with the
exercise of an option under the Plan, then the number of shares of Common Stock
available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by the gross number of
shares for which the option is exercised, and not by the net number of shares of
Common Stock issued to the holder of such option.

                  c.       Should any change be made to the Common Stock by
reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of
shares, exchange of shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common
Stock as a class without the Corporation's receipt of consideration,
appropriate adjustments shall be made to (i) the maximum number and/or class
of securities issuable under the Plan, (ii) the number and/or class of
securities for which any one person may be granted options per calendar year,
and (iii) the number and/or class of securities and the Exercise Price in
effect under each outstanding option in order to prevent the dilution or
enlargement of benefits thereunder. The adjustments determined by the Plan
Administrator shall be final, binding, and conclusive.

                                   ARTICLE 2.

         2.1.     OPTION TERMS

         Each option shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form

                           (1)      The Exercise Price shall be fixed by the

Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Grant Date.

                           (2)      The Exercise Price shall become immediately

3.1, and the documents evidencing the option, be payable in one or more of the
forms specified below:

                                    (a)      cash or check made payable to the
                  Corporation,

                                    (b)      shares of Common Stock held for the
                  requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the
                  Corporation's earnings for financial reporting purposes and
                  valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date, or

                                    (c)      to the extent the option is
                  exercised for vested shares, through a special sale and
                  remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee shall
                  concurrently provide irrevocable written instructions to (a) a
                  Corporation-designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate
                  sale of the Purchased Shares and remit to the Corporation, out
                  of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date,
                  sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable
                  for the Purchased Shares plus all applicable federal, state
                  and local income and employment taxes required to be withheld
                  by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (b) the
                  Corporation to deliver the certificates for the Purchased
                  Shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete
                  the sale.

                           Except to the extent the sale and remittance
                  procedure is utilized, payment of the Exercise Price for the
                  Purchased Shares must be made on the Exercise Date.

                  b.       EXERCISE AND TERM OF OPTIONS. Each option shall be
exercisable at such time or times, during such period and for such number of
shares as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the
documents evidencing the option. However, no option shall have a term in excess
of ten (10) years measured from the Grant Date.

                  c.       EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE

                           (1)      The following provisions shall govern the
exercise of any options held by the Optionee at the time of cessation of
Service:

                                    (a)      Any option outstanding at the time
                  of the Optionee's cessation of Service for any reason except
                  death, Permanent Disability or Misconduct shall remain
                  exercisable for a three (3) month period thereafter, provided
                  no option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date.

                                    (b)      Any option outstanding at the time
                  of the Optionee's cessation of Service due to death or
                  Permanent Disability shall remain exercisable for a twelve
                  (12) month period thereafter, provided no option shall be
                  exercisable after the Expiration Date. Subject to the
                  foregoing, any option exercisable in whole or in part by the
                  Optionee at the time of death may be exercised subsequently by
                  the personal representative of the Optionee's estate or by the
                  person or persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant
                  to the Optionee's will or in accordance with the laws of
                  descent and distribution.

<PAGE>

                                    (c)      Should the Optionee's Service be
                  terminated for Misconduct, then all outstanding options held
                  by the Optionee shall terminate immediately and cease to be
                  outstanding.

                                    (d)      During the applicable post-Service
                  exercise period, the option may not be exercised in the
                  aggregate for more than the number of shares for which the
                  option is exercisable on the date of the Optionee's cessation
                  of Service; the option shall, immediately upon the Optionee's
                  cessation of Service, terminate and cease to be outstanding to
                  the extent the option is not otherwise at that time
                  exercisable. Upon the expiration of the applicable exercise
                  period or (if earlier) upon the Expiration Date, the option
                  shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any shares for
                  which the option has not been exercised.

                           (2)      The Plan Administrator shall have the
discretion, exercisable either at the time an option is granted or at any time
while the option remains outstanding, to:

                                    (a)      extend the period of time for which
                  the option is to remain exercisable following the Optionee's
                  cessation of Service from the period otherwise in effect for
                  that option to such greater period of time as the Plan
                  Administrator shall deem appropriate, but in no event beyond
                  the Expiration Date, and/or

                                    (b)      permit the option to be exercised,
                  during the applicable post-Service exercise period, not only
                  with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock for which
                  such option is exercisable at the time of the Optionee's
                  cessation of Service but also with respect to one or more
                  additional shares that would have vested under the option had
                  the Optionee continued in Service.

                  d.       STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. The holder of an option shall
have no stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the option
until such person shall have exercised the option, paid the Exercise Price, and
become a holder of record of the Purchased Shares.

                  e.       LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. During the
lifetime of the Optionee, Incentive Options may be exercised only by the
Optionee, and shall not be assignable or transferable except by will or the laws
of descent and distribution following the Optionee's death. Non-Statutory
Options may be assigned or transferred in whole or in part only (i) during the
Optionee's lifetime if in connection with the Optionee's estate plan to one or
more members of the Optionee's immediate family (spouse and children) or to a
trust established exclusively for the benefit of one or more such immediate
family members, or (ii) by will or the laws of descent and distribution
following the Optionee's death. The assigned portion may only be exercised by
the person or persons who acquire a proprietary interest in the option pursuant
to the assignment. The terms applicable to the assigned portion shall be the
same as those in effect for the option immediately prior to such assignment and
shall be set forth in such documents issued to the assignee as the Plan
Administrator may deem appropriate.

         2.2.     INCENTIVE OPTIONS

         The terms specified below shall apply to all Incentive Options. Except
as modified by the provisions of this Section 2.2, all the provisions of this
Plan shall apply to Incentive Options. Options specifically designated as
Non-Statutory Options when issued under the Plan shall NOT be subject to the
terms of this Section 2.2.

                  a.       ELIGIBILITY. Incentive Options may only be granted to
Employees.

                  b.       EXERCISE PRICE. The Exercise Price shall not be less
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock on the Grant Date.

<PAGE>

                  c.       DOLLAR LIMITATION. The aggregate Fair Market Value of
the shares of Common Stock (determined as of the respective date or dates of
grant) for which one or more options granted to any Employee under the Plan (or
any other option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) may for
the first time become exercisable as Incentive Options during any one (1)
calendar year shall not exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000). To the extent the Employee holds two (2) or more such options which
become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, the foregoing
limitation on the exercisability of such options as Incentive Options shall be
applied in the order in which such options are granted.

                  d.       10% STOCKHOLDER. If an Employee to whom an Incentive
Option is granted is a 10% Stockholder, then the Exercise Price shall not be
less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock on the Grant Date, and the option term shall not exceed five (5)
years measured from the Grant Date.

                  e.       HOLDING PERIOD. Shares purchased pursuant to an
option shall cease to qualify for favorable tax treatment as Incentive Option
Shares if and to the extent Optionee disposes of such shares within two (2)
years of the Grant Date or within one (1) year of Optionee's purchase of said
shares.

         2.3.     CORPORATE TRANSACTION/CHANGE IN CONTROL

                  a.       In the event of any Corporate Transaction, the Board
of Directors shall have the sole discretion to elect that each outstanding
option shall automatically accelerate so that each such option shall,
immediately prior to the effective date of the Corporate Transaction, become
fully exercisable for all of the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to
such option and may be exercised for any or all of those shares as fully-vested
shares of Common Stock. The Board may exercise its discretion to accelerate the
vesting of options whether or not (i) such option is, in connection with the
Corporate Transaction, either to be assumed by the successor corporation or
Parent thereof or to be replaced with a comparable option to purchase shares of
the capital stock of the successor corporation or Parent thereof, (ii) such
option is to be replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor
corporation which preserves the spread existing on the unvested option shares at
the time of the Corporate Transaction and provides for subsequent payout in
accordance with the same vesting schedule applicable to such option, except to
the extent that the acceleration of such option is subject to other limitations
imposed by the Plan Administrator at the time of the option grant. The
determination of option comparability under clause (i) above shall be made by
the Plan Administrator, whose determination shall be final, binding and
conclusive.

                  b.       In the event of any Corporate Transaction, the Board
of Directors shall have sole discretion to elect that all outstanding repurchase
rights may also be terminated automatically whether or not those repurchase
rights are to be assigned to the successor corporation (or Parent thereof) in
connection with such Corporate Transaction.

                  c.       The Plan Administrator's discretion under Sections
2.3.a. and b. above shall be exercisable either at the time the option is
granted or at any time while the option remains outstanding, whether or not
those options are to be assumed or replaced (or those repurchase rights are to
be assigned) in the Corporate Transaction. The Plan Administrator shall also
have the discretion to grant options which do not accelerate whether or not such
options are assumed (and to provide for repurchase rights that do not terminate
whether or not such rights are assigned) in connection with a Corporate
Transaction.

                  d.       If the Board of Directors elects the automatic
acceleration of some or all of the outstanding options upon the occurrence of a
Corporate Transaction, all such outstanding options shall terminate and cease to
be outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or
parent thereof) immediately following the consummation of the Corporate
Transaction.

<PAGE>

                  e.       Each option which is assumed in connection with a
Corporate Transaction shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such
Corporate Transaction, to apply to the number and class of securities that would
have been issuable to the Optionee in consummation of such Corporate Transaction
had the option been exercised immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction.
Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to (i) the number and class of
securities available for issuance under the Plan following the consummation of
such Corporate Transaction, (ii) the exercise price payable per share under each
outstanding option, provided the aggregate exercise price payable for such
securities shall remain the same and (iii) the maximum number of securities
and/or class of securities for which any one person may be granted stock
options.

                  f.       The Plan Administrator shall have the discretion,
exercisable at the time the option is granted or at any time while the option
remains outstanding, to provide for the automatic acceleration of any options
assumed or replaced in a Corporate Transaction that do not otherwise accelerate
at that time (and the termination of any of the Corporation's outstanding
repurchase rights that do not otherwise terminate at the time of the Corporate
Transaction) in the event the Optionee's Service should subsequently terminate
by reason of an Involuntary Termination within eighteen (18) months following
the effective date of such Corporate Transaction. Any options so accelerated
shall remain exercisable for shares until the earlier of (i) the expiration of
the option term or (ii) the expiration of the one (1)-year period measured from
the effective date of the Involuntary Termination.

                  g.       The Plan Administrator shall have the discretion,
exercisable either at the time the option is granted or at any time while the
option remains outstanding, to (i) provide for the automatic acceleration of one
or more outstanding options (and the automatic termination of one or more
outstanding repurchase rights) upon the occurrence of a Change in Control or
(ii) condition any such option acceleration (and the termination of any
outstanding repurchase rights) upon the subsequent Involuntary Termination of
the Optionee's Service within a specified period (not to exceed eighteen (18)
months) following the effective date of such Change in Control. Any options
accelerated in connection with a Change in Control shall remain fully
exercisable until the expiration or sooner termination of the option term.

                  h.       The portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in
connection with a Corporate Transaction or Change in Control shall remain
exercisable as an Incentive Option only to the extent the applicable One Hundred
Thousand Dollar ($100,000) limitation is not exceeded. To the extent such dollar
limitation is exceeded, the accelerated portion of such option shall be
exercisable as a Non-Statutory Option under the federal tax laws.

                  i.       The grant of options under the Plan shall in no way
affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or
otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate,
dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or
assets.

                                   ARTICLE 3.
                                  MISCELLANEOUS
                                  -------------

         3.1.     FINANCING

                  a.       The Plan Administrator may permit any Optionee to pay
the option Exercise Price by delivering a promissory note payable in one or more
installments. The terms of any such promissory note (including the interest rate
and the terms of repayment) shall be established by the Plan Administrator in
its sole discretion. Promissory notes may be authorized with or without security
or collateral. In all events, the maximum credit available to the Optionee may
not exceed the sum of (i) the aggregate option Exercise Price payable for the
Purchased Shares plus (ii) the amount of any federal, state and local income and
employment tax liability incurred by the Optionee in connection with the option
exercise.

<PAGE>

                  b.       The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion,
determine that one or more such promissory notes shall be subject to forgiveness
by the Corporation in whole or in part upon such terms as the Plan Administrator
may deem appropriate.

         3.2.     TAX WITHHOLDING

                  a.       The Corporation's obligation to deliver shares of
Common Stock upon the exercise of options under the Plan shall be subject to the
satisfaction of all applicable federal, state and local income and employment
tax withholding requirements.

                  b.       The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion,
provide any or all holders of Non-Statutory Options under the Plan with the
right to use shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of all or part of the Taxes
incurred by such holders in connection with the exercise of their options. Such
right may be provided to any such holder in either or both of the following
formats:

                                    (1)      STOCK WITHHOLDING: The election to
                  have the Corporation withhold, from the shares of Common Stock
                  otherwise issuable upon the exercise of such Non-Statutory
                  Option, a portion of those shares with an aggregate Fair
                  Market Value equal to the percentage of the Taxes (not to
                  exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the holder.

                                    (2)      STOCK DELIVERY: The election to
                  deliver to the Corporation, at the time the Non-Statutory
                  Option is exercised, one or more shares of Common Stock
                  previously acquired by such holder (other than in connection
                  with the option exercise triggering the Taxes) with an
                  aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the
                  Taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by
                  the holder.

         3.3.     EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF THE PLAN

                  a.       The Plan shall become effective on the Plan Effective
Date. However, no shares shall be issued under the Plan pursuant to Incentive
Options until the Plan is approved by the Corporation's stockholders. If such
stockholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months after the Plan
Effective Date, then all Incentive Options previously granted under this Plan
shall automatically convert into Non-Statutory Options.

                  b.       The Plan shall terminate upon the earliest of (i)
January 31, 2003, (ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance under
the Plan shall have been issued, or (iii) the termination of all outstanding
options in connection with a Corporate Transaction. Upon such Plan termination,
all outstanding options shall continue to have force and effect in accordance
with the provisions of the documents evidencing such options.

         3.4.     AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

                  a.       The Board shall have complete and exclusive power and
authority to amend or modify the Plan in any or all respects. However, no such
amendment or modification shall adversely affect any rights and obligations with
respect to options at the time outstanding under the Plan unless each affected
Optionee consents to such amendment or modification. In addition, amendments to
the Plan shall be subject to approval of the Corporation's stockholders to the
extent required by applicable laws or regulations.

                  b.       Options to purchase shares of Common Stock may be
granted under the Plan that are in each instance in excess of the number of
shares then available for issuance under the Plan, provided any excess shares
actually issued are held in escrow until there is obtained Board approval (and
shareholder approval if

<PAGE>

required by applicable laws or regulations) of an amendment sufficiently
increasing the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the
Plan.

         3.5.     USE OF PROCEEDS

         Any cash proceeds received by the Corporation from the sale of shares
of Common Stock under the Plan shall be used for general corporate purposes.

         3.6.     REGULATORY APPROVALS

                  a.       The implementation of the Plan, the granting of any
option under the Plan, and the issuance of any shares of Common Stock upon the
exercise of any option shall be subject to the Corporation's obtaining all
approvals and permits required by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction
over the Plan and the options granted under it, and the shares of Common Stock
issued pursuant to the Plan.

                  b.       No shares of Common Stock shall be issued or
delivered under the Plan unless and until there shall have been compliance with
all applicable requirements of federal and state securities laws and all
applicable listing requirements of any stock exchange (or the Nasdaq market, if
applicable) on which Common Stock is then listed for trading.

         3.7.     NO EMPLOYMENT/SERVICE RIGHTS

         Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee any right to
continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or
otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation (or any Parent or
Subsidiary employing or retaining such person) or of the Optionee, which rights
are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate such person's Service at any
time for any reason, with or without cause.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Corporation has executed this Plan effective as
of the Effective Date.
