                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

      THIS AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "AGREEMENT") is made and

Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY") and ROBERT MCCASHIN ("MCCASHIN").

                                   BACKGROUND

      A.    The Company and McCashin entered into an Employment Agreement dated

      C.    In connection with the consummation of the Merger, the Company and
McCashin intend that McCashin will cease to serve as the Chief Executive Officer
of the Company but will continue to act as the Chairman of the Board of
Directors of the Company ("CHAIRMAN"), and the Company and McCashin desire to
amend the Original Agreement, effective as of the effective date of the Merger,
to describe certain promises, covenants and agreements with McCashin, including
his serving as Chairman following the Merger, and certain payments and other
consideration to be made available to McCashin as a result thereof.

      D.    McCashin is willing to amend the Original Agreement effective as of
the effective date of the Merger and to continue as Chairman on the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Until the effective date

Company.

                  (b)   POSITION FOLLOWING THE MERGER. Following the

McCashin shall perform the duties and functions consistent

Company's Board of Directors and stockholders, and such other duties as shall be
mutually agreed to by McCashin and the Board of Directors following consultation
with the Company's CEO.

cease "vesting" on such date, (ii) such options shall be exercisable for ninety
(90) days after McCashin ceases to be Chairman, and (iii) to the extent that the
Company's right of repurchase shall not have otherwise lapsed pursuant to

Chief Executive Officer pursuant to Section 1.1(a), the Company shall, for
ninety (90) days after McCashin ceases to be Chairman, be entitled to exercise
such right of repurchase with respect to any such options which McCashin has

when McCashin ceases to be Chief Executive Officer pursuant to Section 1.1(a),
(i) the 600,000 stock options granted to McCashin on August 14, 2001 pursuant to

Plan shall fully "vest" and the Company's right of repurchase with respect to

      3.    PAYMENTS AND OTHER CONSIDERATION.

            3.1   DEFINITIONS.

                  (a)   "CAUSE" means: (i) an act of fraud, embezzlement, theft
or any other act constituting a felony or involving moral turpitude, causing
material harm, financial or otherwise, to the Company; (ii) a demonstrably
intentional and deliberate act or failure to act (other than as a result of
incapacity due to physical or mental illness) which is committed in bad faith by
McCashin, which causes or can be expected to cause material financial injury to
the Company; or (iii) an intentional and material breach of this Agreement that
is not cured by McCashin within thirty (30) days after written notice from the
Board of Directors specifying the breach and requesting a cure. For purposes of
this Agreement, no act, or failure to act, on the part of McCashin shall be
deemed "intentional" if it was due primarily to an error in judgment or
negligence, but shall be deemed "intentional" only if done, or omitted to be
done, by McCashin not in good faith and without reasonable belief that his
action or omission was in, or not opposed to, the best interest of the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, McCashin shall not be deemed to have been
terminated for "Cause" hereunder unless and until there shall have been
delivered to McCashin a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative
vote of not less than three-quarters of the Board then in office at a meeting of
the Board of Directors called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice
to McCashin and an opportunity for McCashin, together with his counsel, to be
heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board,
McCashin had committed an act set forth above and specifying the particulars
thereof in detail. Nothing herein shall limit the right of McCashin or his
beneficiaries to contest the validity or propriety of any such determination.

                  (b)   "CHANGE IN CONTROL" shall mean the occurrence of any one
of the following: (i) any "person", as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and
14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "EXCHANGE ACT")
(other than the Company, a subsidiary, an affiliate, or a Company employee
benefit plan, including any trustee of such plan acting as a trustee) is or
becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange
Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty
percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then
outstanding securities; (ii) the election to a majority of the seats of the
Board of Directors of the Company of candidates who were not proposed by a
majority of the Board of Directors in office prior to the time of such election;
or (iii) the dissolution or liquidation (partial or total) of the Company or a
sale of assets involving fifty percent (50%) or more of the assets of the
Company (other than the disposition of a subsidiary) or other transaction or
series of related transactions pursuant to which the holders, as a group, of all
of the shares of the Company outstanding prior to the merger, reorganization or
other transaction hold, as a group, less than fifty percent (50%) of the shares
of the Company outstanding after the merger, reorganization or other
transaction.

                  (c)   "RESIGNATION FOR GOOD REASON" is defined as McCashin's
resignation as Chairman as result of any of the following events: (i) a material
diminution in his duties as Chairman of the Company, as set forth in this
Agreement; or (ii) a material diminution in the payments due under Section
3.2(a)(ii) and in the Additional Consideration target payable to McCashin during
the first two years following the effectiveness of the Agreement; or (iii) any

<PAGE>

material breach by the Company of any provision of this Agreement, which breach
is not cured within thirty (30) days following written notice from McCashin.

                  (d)   "TERMINATION OTHER THAN FOR CAUSE" means termination of
McCashin's position as Chairman of the Company for any reason other than (i)
termination for Cause, or (ii) Voluntary Termination, including without
limitation a termination resulting from McCashin's complete or partial
incapacity due to death or to physical or mental illness or impairment that
results in his inability to perform his duties and responsibilities hereunder in
the ordinary and usual manner required of a person in McCashin's position for
ninety (90) consecutive days.

                  (e)   "VOLUNTARY TERMINATION" means McCashin's termination of
his position as Chairman of the Company other than by reason of a Resignation
for Good Reason or death of disability as described in Section 3.1(d) above.

            3.2   PAYMENTS.

                  (a)   GENERAL PAYMENTS. In consideration for the promises,
covenants, and agreements of McCashin set forth in this Agreement, McCashin
shall receive $2,000,000, provided McCashin does not incur a Cause termination
or a Voluntary Termination during the two-year period after which McCashin
ceases to serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, in payments as
follows:

                        (i)   upon the effective date of McCashin's ceasing to
serve as Chief Executive Officer pursuant to Section 1.1(a), the Company shall
pay to McCashin cash in the amount of $400,000;

                        (ii)  $900,000 over the first two years after McCashin
ceases being Chief Executive Officer pursuant to Section 1.1(b) and while he is
Chairman of the Company payable in installments in accordance with the Company's
customary policy; and

                        (iii) during the first two years after McCashin ceases
being Chief Executive Officer pursuant to Section 1.1 (b), up to $350,000 per
year (the "ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION") based upon objectives set by the Company's
Compensation Committee substantially similar to the objectives set for the
Company's Chief Executive Officer.

                  (b)   OTHER PAYMENTS. Upon Termination Other Than for Cause or
Resignation for Good Reason, the Company shall pay McCashin cash in the amount
of $2,000,000 less the "Total Consideration" previously paid to McCashin to the
date of termination. "Total Consideration" shall mean the total of the amounts
paid under Section 3.2(a). Upon Voluntary Termination, the Company shall pay
McCashin $400,000 in cash, except to the extent the Total Consideration as of
the date of Voluntary Termination equals $1,600,000 or more, then the $400,000
shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that the Total Consideration and the
payment made pursuant to this sentence on Voluntary Termination together would
not exceed $2,000,000.

<PAGE>

                  (c)   FUTURE PAYMENTS. After two years from the effective date
of this Agreement, McCashin shall receive such payments as established by the
Board of Directors for serving as Chairman.

            3.3   BENEFITS.

                  (a)   BENEFITS. The Company shall continue coverage for
McCashin, at the Company's cost, under the Company's group medical, dental and
vision benefit plans and continue a life insurance policy insuring McCashin for
$1,000,000, in each case until the earlier of (i) McCashin reaching the age of
65 or (ii) McCashin accepting employment with a company, firm or other entity.
Following each year the Company shall report to McCashin his income attributable
to the medical, dental, vision and life benefits. McCashin shall be responsible
for income tax accrued due to the Company's payment of premiums for medical,
dental, vision and life benefits.

                  (b)   EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT. The Company agrees to reimburse
McCashin for all reasonable, ordinary and necessary expenses incurred by
McCashin in conjunction with his acting as Chairman consistent with the
Company's standard reimbursement policies. In addition, the Company shall
reimburse reasonable out-of-pocket air fare (coach class) and reasonable car
rental expenses incurred by McCashin related to his position with the Company.
In addition, the Company shall pay, as and when incurred, the reasonable legal
and valuation fees and other costs incurred by McCashin in connection with this
Agreement. Such fees and other costs shall include (without limitation) those
incurred in negotiating this Agreement.

            3.4   INDEMNIFICATION AS OFFICER AND DIRECTOR. McCashin shall be
entitled to be indemnified by the Company for his service as Director and
Chairman to the same extent and in the same manner as he was indemnified prior
to the date hereof.

            3.5   GROSS-UP PAYMENT. If a Change in Control shall occur during
the first two years after the effectiveness of the Merger, the following shall
apply:

                  (a)   If there is a Termination Other Than for Cause or
Resignation for Good Reason within one year after a Change in Control, and if
any of the payments or benefits received or to be received by McCashin in
connection with a Change in Control or McCashin ceasing to serve as Chairman
(whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement
or agreement with the Company) (all such payments and benefits, excluding the
Gross-Up Payment, referred to as the "TOTAL PAYMENTS") will be subject to the
excise tax (the "EXCISE TAX") imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "CODE"), the Company shall pay, at the time or
times specified in Section 3.5(d), to McCashin additional amounts (the "GROSS-UP
PAYMENT") such that the net amount retained by McCashin, after deduction of any
Excise Tax on the Total Payments and any Federal, state and local income and
employment taxes and Excise Tax upon the Gross-Up Payment, shall be equal to the
Total Payments.

<PAGE>

                  (b)   For purposes of determining whether any of the Total
Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax,
(A) all of the Total Payments shall be treated as "parachute payments" (within
the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) unless, in the opinion of tax
counsel ("TAX COUNSEL") selected by those individuals who were member of the
Company's Board of Directors immediately prior to the effective date of the
Change in Control and reasonably acceptable to McCashin, such payments or
benefits (in whole or in part) should not be treated by the courts as
constituting parachute payments, including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of
the Code, (B) all "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of Section
280G(b)(l) of the Code shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax unless, in
the opinion of Tax Counsel, such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part)
should be treated by the courts as representing reasonable compensation for
services actually rendered (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the
Code), or are otherwise not subject to the Excise Tax, and (C) the value of any
noncash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined in
accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. All
fees and expenses of the Tax Counsel shall be borne solely by the Company.

                  (c)   For purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up
Payment, McCashin shall be deemed to pay Federal income tax at the highest
stated marginal income tax rates for the calendar years in which the Gross-Up
Payments are to be made and state and local income taxes at the highest stated
marginal rates of taxation in the state and locality of McCashin's residence in
the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payments are to be made, net of the
maximum reduction in Federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction
of such state and local taxes, taking into account the reduction in itemized
deductions under Section 68 of the Code, but not taking into account alternative
minimum taxes.

                  (d)   Installments of the Gross-Up Payments shall be paid
(including by the Company making a withholding payment to the tax authorities)
as the Total Payments are paid to McCashin, unless the Excise Tax is due at an
earlier date, in which case, the Gross-Up Payment shall be made at such earlier
date, or unless it is initially determined by the Company or the Tax Counsel
that the Total Payments are not subject to the Excise Tax but after payment of
the Total Payments, it is finally determined following the proceedings described
in Section 3.5(e) and (f) that the Total Payments are subject to the Excise Tax,
in which case the Gross-Up Payment shall be made upon the imposition upon
McCashin of the Excise Tax following the proceedings described in Section 3.5(e)
and (f).

                  (e)   McCashin shall notify the Company in writing of any
claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the
payment by the Company of a Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given
as soon as practicable but no later than ten (10) business days after McCashin
is informed in writing of such claim and shall describe the nature of such claim
and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. McCashin shall not pay
such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period following the
date on which McCashin gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period
ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due).
If the Company notifies McCashin in writing prior to the expiration of such
period that it desires to contest such claim, McCashin shall:

<PAGE>

                        (i)   give the Company any information reasonably
requested by the Company relating to such claim;

                        (ii)  take such action in connection with contesting
such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time,
including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to
such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company and reasonably
satisfactory to McCashin;

                        (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order
to effectively contest such claim; and

                        (iv)  permit the Company to control any proceedings
relating to such claim as provided below;

provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and
expenses (including, but not limited to, additional interest and penalties and
related legal, consulting or other similar fees) incurred in connection with
such contest and shall indemnify and hold McCashin harmless, on an after-tax
basis, for any Excise Tax or other tax (including interest and penalties with
respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs
and expenses.

                  (f)   The Company shall control all proceedings taken in
connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any
and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the
taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either
direct McCashin to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim
in any permissible manner, and McCashin agrees to prosecute such contest to a
determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall
determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs McCashin to pay such
claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment
to McCashin on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify and hold McCashin
harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or other tax (including
interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance
or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and
provided, further, that if McCashin is required to extend the statute of
limitations to enable the Company to contest such claim, McCashin may limit this
extension solely to such claim. The Company's control of the contest shall be
limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable
hereunder and McCashin shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may
be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing
authority. In addition, no position may be taken nor any final resolution be
agreed to by the Company without McCashin's consent if such position or
resolution could reasonably be expected to adversely affect McCashin (including
any other tax position of McCashin unrelated to the matters covered hereby).

                  (g)   In the event that McCashin receives a refund of the
Excise Tax previously paid, McCashin shall repay to the Company, within five (5)
business days following the receipt of such refund of the Excise Tax previously
paid, the amount of such refund plus any interest received by McCashin from the
Internal Revenue Service on the refund, and an amount

<PAGE>

equal to the reduction in McCashin's Federal, state and local income tax
assuming that the repayment is deductible, using the assumptions set forth in
Section 2.5(c). If, after the receipt by McCashin of an amount advanced by the
Company in connection with an Excise Tax claim, a determination is made that
McCashin shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the
Company does not notify McCashin in writing of its intent to contest the denial
of such refund prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days after such
determination, such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be
repaid.

      4.    RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS.

            4.1   NONCOMPETITION AND NONSOLICITATION.

                  (a)   CONFIDENTIALITY AND INVENTIONS ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT.
McCashin has previously executed the Company's standard employee confidentiality
and inventions assignment agreement, and execution of this Agreement shall
confirm that such agreement remains in full force and effect. This Section 4
shall be read in conjunction with the terms of any Company standard
confidentiality and inventions assignment agreement executed by McCashin and to

shall govern.

on McCashin's own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity.

                  (c)   INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. McCashin acknowledges and agrees that

to the Company and without the necessity of posting a bond) to obtain an
injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction prohibiting the continuance

      THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

            1.    Duties.

                  1.1   Employment. As of the Effective Date and through the
Term, Employee shall be an employee and serve in the capacity of Chief Executive
Officer of the Company. As Chief Executive Officer, Employee will hold the
senior most executive office of the Company. Employee shall devote all of his
business time, energy and skill to the affairs of the Company; provided,

shall perform such duties and functions consistent with his positions as shall
be specified from time to time by the Company's Board of Directors, oversee the
business and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries and perform such
other duties as specified in the Company's Bylaws. The Company's President,

Employee. During the Term, Employee shall report directly to the Board of
Directors of the Company, and no other employee of the Company shall report
directly to the Board of Directors, except in the case of the incapacity or
prolonged absence of Employee; provided, however, the Board of Directors shall
have access to other officers of the Company if the Board of Directors believes
that its fiduciary duty requires such access. Employee hereby accepts such
employment and agrees to perform such duties.

                  1.2   Director. As of the Effective Date, Employee also shall
be appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company. Subject to
annual election by the Company stockholders, Employee shall continue to serve as

Executive Committee of the Board of Directors. Employee agrees to serve as a
director of the Company and on the Executive Committee without additional
compensation.

            2.    Term of Employment.

                  2.1   Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement the

death during the Term, or (ii) termination of Employee's employment by the

voluntary resignation of employment by Employee if such resignation is a result
of any of the following reasons and Employee notifies the Company in writing on
or prior to any such resignation (other than for a resignation under clause

to cure such event within 30 days thereafter: (i) any change in Employee's
duties and responsibilities (including any change in his duty to report to the

his duties, responsibilities or status with the Company (excluding the fact that
the Company is no longer public in the event of a going private transaction by
the Company); (ii) a material and adverse change in Employee's title as and
office of Chief Executive Officer of the Company; (iii) a decrease in Employee's

provided, however, Employee's regular and customary travel to the Company's
California headquarters shall not constitute an involuntary relocation under
this subsection (v); (vi) the Company's giving notice of termination of
Employee's employment other than as permitted under this Agreement; (vii) the
Company's failure to cause any successor to the Company to expressly assume and
agree to perform this Agreement or (viii) a Change in Control and such
resignation is within 18 months after the effective date of the applicable
Change in Control.

                        (g)   "Termination for Cause" shall mean termination by
the Company of Employee's employment by the Company: (i) by reason of Employee's
conviction (by a court of competent jurisdiction, not subject to further appeal)
of, or pleading guilty to, a felony or a crime involving fraud or dishonesty
against the Company; (ii) by reason of Employee's willful and continued failure
to substantially perform Employee's duties for the Company which failure
continues for thirty (30) days following Employee's receipt of written notice of
such failure to perform; or (iii) by reason of Employee's breach of this
Agreement or any other agreement with the Company which breach is not cured for
thirty (30) days following Employee's receipt of written notice of such failure
to perform.

                                       3

                  2.3   Termination for Cause and Voluntary Termination.
Termination for Cause may be effected by the Company at any time during the Term
and shall be effected by written notification to Employee. Upon Termination for
Cause or Voluntary Termination, Employee shall be paid all accrued but unpaid

any other compensation or reimbursement of any kind, including, without
limitation, severance compensation or bonus, other than as required by law or
pursuant to the Company's benefit plans or reimbursement of expenses incurred as
of the effective date of termination in accordance with Company policy.

                  2.4   Termination Due to Death or Disability. Upon the
effective date of termination of this Agreement due to Death or Disability: (a)

                  2.5   Termination Other Than for Cause or Resignation for Good
Reason. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the Company may effect
a Termination Other Than for Cause at any time upon written notice to Employee
of such termination, and Employee may effect a Resignation for Good Reason in
accordance with procedures set forth in Section 2.1(f). Upon the effective date
of any Termination Other Than for Cause or Resignation for Good Reason: (a) the

Employee's term life insurance (or pay Employee an amount equivalent to the
premiums in effect prior to termination or the amount required for Employee to
obtain such coverage on an individual basis if greater); (e) during the one year
period following the effective date of Termination Other Than for Cause or
Resignation for Good Reason, the Company shall make contributions on Employee's
behalf to any then existing Company qualified and nonqualified defined
contribution and defined benefit plans in the amounts that the Company would
have made had Employee's employment continued, or make payments equal to the
amount of such contributions directly to Employee to the extent such
contributions are not permitted by law or under the terms of such plans; and (f)
notwithstanding any provision of any plan or agreement to the contrary, all
options to purchase the Company's common stock and other stock-based awards
granted to Employee by the Company shall fully vest immediately, and Employee
shall have one year from the effective date of termination to exercise his
options to purchase the Company's common stock, but Employee shall not be paid
any other compensation or reimbursement of any kind, other than as required by
law or pursuant to the Company's benefit plans or reimbursement of expenses
incurred as of the effective date of termination in accordance with Company
policy. For purposes of Section 2.5(b) above, Employee's severance payment shall
be an amount equal to the greater of: (A) two times the aggregate amount of his
then current base salary and Highest Bonus; and (B) the lesser of: (i)
$2,000,000.00; and (ii) five percent (5%) of the Company's Liquid Assets. If
Employee's severance amount is based on (A) above, his severance shall be paid
over a two year period in accordance with the Company's customary payroll
policies; provided, however if the severance amount payable under (B) is less
than the amount payable under (A), Employee instead may elect to receive the
lesser payment under (B) in the form of a lump sum payment by providing written
notice to the Company within thirty (30) days following the effective date of
his termination. If Employee's severance amount is based on (B) above, his
severance shall be paid in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the

                  2.6   Gross-Up Payment. If a Change in Control shall have
occurred during the Term, the following shall apply:

                        (a)   If any of the payments or benefits received or to
be received by Employee in connection with a Change in Control or Employee's
termination of employment (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or
any other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company) (all such payments
and benefits, excluding the Gross-Up Payment, referred to as the "Total
Payments") will be subject to the excise tax (the "Excise Tax") imposed under
Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the
Company shall pay, at the time or times specified in Section 2.6(d), to Employee
additional amounts (the "Gross-Up Payment") such that the net amount retained by
Employee, after deduction of any Excise Tax on the Total Payments and any
Federal, state and local income and employment taxes and Excise Tax upon the
Gross-Up Payment, shall be equal to the Total Payments.

                        (b)   For purposes of determining whether any of the
Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise
Tax: (A) all of the Total Payments shall be treated as "parachute payments"
(within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) unless, in the opinion of
tax counsel ("Tax Counsel") selected by those individuals who were member of the
Company's Board of Directors immediately prior to the effective date of the
Change in Control and reasonably acceptable to the Employee, such payments or
benefits (in whole or in part) should not be treated by the courts as
constituting parachute payments, including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of
the Code; (B) all "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of Section
280G(b)(l) of the Code shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax unless, in
the opinion of Tax Counsel, such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part)
should be treated by the courts as representing reasonable compensation for
services actually rendered (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the
Code), or are otherwise not subject to the Excise Tax; and (C) the value of any
noncash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined in
accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. All
fees and expenses of the Tax Counsel shall be borne solely by the Company.

                        (c)   For purposes of determining the amount of the
Gross-Up Payment, Employee shall be deemed to pay Federal income tax at the
highest stated marginal income tax rates for the calendar years in which the
Gross-Up Payments are to be made and state and local income taxes at the highest
stated marginal rates of taxation in the state and locality of Employee's
residence in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payments are to be made,
net of the maximum reduction in Federal income taxes which could be obtained
from deduction of such state and local taxes, taking into account the reduction
in itemized deductions under Section 68 of the Code, but not taking into account
alternative minimum taxes.

                                       6
<PAGE>

                        (d)   Installments of the Gross-Up Payments shall be
paid (including by the Company making a withholding payment to the tax
authorities) as the Total Payments are paid to the Employee, unless the Excise
Tax is due at an earlier date, in which case, the Gross-Up Payment shall be made
at such earlier date, or unless it is initially determined by the Company or the
Tax Counsel that the Total Payments are not subject to the Excise Tax but after
payment of the Total Payments, it is finally determined following the
proceedings described in Section 2.6(e) and (f) that the Total Payments are
subject to the Excise Tax, in which case the Gross-Up Payment shall be made upon
the imposition upon Employee of the Excise Tax following the proceedings
described in Section 2.6(e) and (f).

                        (e)   Employee shall notify the Company in writing of
any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the
payment by the Company of a Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given
as soon as practicable but no later than ten (10) business days after Employee
is informed in writing of such claim and shall describe the nature of such claim
and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. Employee shall not pay
such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period following the
date on which Employee gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period
ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due).
If the Company notifies Employee in writing prior to the expiration of such
period that it desires to contest such claim, Employee shall:

                              (i)   give the Company any information reasonably
requested by the Company relating to such claim;

                              (ii)  take such action in connection with
contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from
time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with
respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company and
reasonably satisfactory to Employee;

                              (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in
order to effectively contest such claim; and

                              (iv)  permit the Company to control any
proceedings relating to such claim as provided below;

provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and
expenses (including, but not limited to, additional interest and penalties and
related legal, consulting or other similar fees) incurred in connection with
such contest and shall indemnify and hold Employee harmless, on an after-tax
basis, for any Excise Tax or other tax (including interest and penalties with
respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs
and expenses.

                                       7
<PAGE>

                        (f)   The Company shall control all proceedings taken in
connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any
and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the
taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either
direct Employee to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim
in any permissible manner, and Employee agrees to prosecute such contest to a
determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall
determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs Employee to pay such
claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment
to Employee on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify and hold Employee
harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or other tax (including
interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance
or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and
provided, further, that if Employee is required to extend the statute of
limitations to enable the Company to contest such claim, Employee may limit this
extension solely to such claim. The Company's control of the contest shall be
limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable
hereunder and Employee shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may
be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing
authority. In addition, no position may be taken nor any final resolution be
agreed to by the Company without Employee's consent if such position or
resolution could reasonably be expected to adversely affect Employee (including
any other tax position of Employee unrelated to the matters covered hereby).

                        (g)   In the event that Employee receives a refund of
the Excise Tax previously paid, Employee shall repay to the Company, within five
(5) business days following the receipt of such refund of the Excise Tax
previously paid, the amount of such refund plus any interest received by
Employee from the Internal Revenue Service on the refund, and an amount equal to
the reduction in Employee's Federal, state and local income tax if the repayment
is deductible, using the assumptions set forth in Section 2.6(c). If, after the
receipt by Employee of an amount advanced by the Company in connection with an
Excise Tax claim, a determination is made that Employee shall not be entitled to
any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify Employee
in writing of its intent to contest the denial of such refund prior to the
expiration of thirty (30) days after such determination, such advance shall be
forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid.

                  2.7   Resignation. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Company's
Board of Directors and Employee, termination of Employee's employment under this
Agreement shall be deemed a resignation as Chief Executive Officer, as a member
of the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee and from any other
offices, positions or committees of the Company. Employee shall deliver a
written letter of resignation from such offices, positions or committees to the
Company. Except to the extent as otherwise

                                       8
<PAGE>

required by law, any payments under Section 2 (except in the event of death or
disability resulting in an inability to execute an agreement) shall be
conditioned upon Employee executing such a letter of resignation.

            3.    Salary, Benefits and Expenses.

                  3.1   Base Salary. As payment for the services to be rendered
by Employee as provided in Section 1 and subject to the terms and conditions of
Section 2, the Company shall pay to Employee a "base salary" at the rate per
year indicated on Schedule A, subject to deductions, payable in the same manner
as other Company employees receive their base compensation.

                  3.2   Bonus. Employee shall be eligible for a bonus as
indicated on Schedule A.

                  3.3   Fringe Benefits and Expense Reimbursement. Employee
shall be eligible to participate in such of the Company's benefit plans as are
now generally available or later made generally available to executive employees
of the Company. Employee also shall be entitled to: (i) receive expense
reimbursement in accordance with Company policy; (ii) office and support staff
consistent with the office of Chief Executive Officer; (iii) paid vacation in
accordance with Company policy for its senior executives; (iv) the use of a
corporate apartment near the Company's California headquarters at a cost to the
Company not to exceed $4000.00 per month; and (v) the use of an automobile
(together with insurance, maintenance and gasoline) for business purposes at the
Company's California headquarters at a cost to the Company not to exceed
$1000.00 per month.

                  3.4   Stock Options. Upon the Effective Date, the Company will
grant Employee a non-qualified stock option exercisable over a 10-year period to
purchase 450,000 shares of the Company's common stock under a Company stock
option plan. The shares shall vest over a four-year period, such that 25% of the
shares shall vest on each one year anniversary after the date of grant. The
exercise price shall be the fair market value of the Company's common stock on
the date of grant, as determined under the applicable Company stock option plan.

                  3.5   Insurance. During the Term, the Company agrees to keep
in place a directors and officers insurance policy with coverage in an amount
similar to the amount of coverage provided for other Company officers and
directors.

                  3.6   Legal Fees. Upon occurrence of the Effective Date, the
Company agrees to pay reasonable legal fees incurred by Employee for the
negotiation of this Agreement.

<PAGE>

            4.    Annual Performance Review. The Company shall perform an annual
review of Employee's performance and, in the discretion of the Company's
Compensation Committee, make appropriate increases in Employee's base salary and
determine whether additional stock option grants should be recommended to the
Board of Directors of the Company.

            5.    Restrictive Covenants

                  5.1   Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation.

                        (a)   Noncompetition. During the term of Employee's
employment by the Company and for a period of two years after termination of
Employee's employment (provided such two year period after termination shall not
extend beyond three years after the Effective Date), Employee will not, without
the prior written consent of the Board of Directors of the Company engage in any
other employment or consulting or otherwise directly or indirectly participate
in or assist any business which is a: (i) then existing competitor of the
Company, or (ii) potential competitor of the Company, to the extent Employee has
a reasonable basis to know such business is a potential competitor at the time
of termination. Employee acknowledges that this noncompetition provision is made
in connection with and as a condition of the Merger.

                        (b)   Nonsolicitation. During the term of Employee's
employment by the Company, and for a period of two years after termination of
Employee's employment, without the prior written consent of the Board of
Directors of the Company, Employee shall not directly or indirectly solicit,
recruit, encourage or induce any employees, directors, customers, consultants,
contractors or subcontractors of the Company to leave the employ of the Company
or to terminate or alter their agreements, positions or business arrangements
with the Company, as the case may be, either on Employee's own behalf or on
behalf of any other person or entity.

                        (c)   Injunctive Relief. Employee acknowledges and
agrees that damages will not be an adequate remedy in the event of a breach of
any of the obligations under this Section 5 and therefore agrees that the
Company shall be entitled (without limitation of any other rights or remedies
otherwise available to the Company and without the necessity of posting a bond)
to obtain an injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction prohibiting the
continuance or recurrence of any breach of this Section 5.

                        (d)   Confidentiality and Inventions Assignment
Agreement. Upon execution of this Agreement, Employee agrees to execute
simultaneously a copy of a Company confidentiality and inventions assignment
agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 5. This Section
5 shall be read in conjunction with the terms of

                                       10
