ADAPTIVE BROADBAND CORPORATION

ADDENDUM TO THE FEBRUARY 18, 2000

RETENTION AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

THIS ADDENDUM TO THE FEBRUARY 18, 2000 RETENTION AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT
("Addendum") is entered into as of July 5, 2000 (the  "Effective Date"), between
ADAPTIVE BROADBAND CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("ADAP") and  George
Arena (the "Employee").

RECITAL

By this Addendum, ADAP authorizes the Employee to accept employment as a
director on the Board of Moseley Associates without such employment limiting the
duration or continuance of severance compensation as outlined in Paragraph 4 of
the Retention and Severance Agreement dated February 18, 2000 ("Agreement").
However, any compensation exceeding $20,000 in one 12 month period shall result
in a dollar-for-dollar reduction in level of severance  compensation described
therein.  Employment as a director on the board of any other business or entity,
whether paid or not, shall not constitute employment and shall not limit the
duration or continuance nor reduce the amount of severance compensation.

The parties agree as follows:

1.  Severance Compensation.  ADAP authorizes The Employee to begin employment as
    ----------------------
a director on the board of any business or entity, including Moseley Associates,
without such employment limiting the duration or continuance of severance
compensation as provided in Section 4 of the Agreement.  However, the amount of
compensation exceeding $20,000 in one 12 month period that the Employee receives
as a director on the Board of Moseley Associates shall be deducted from the
severance compensation amount paid by ADAP.

2.  Miscellaneous.  Except as modified by this Addendum, the Agreement remains
    --------------
in full force and effect

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Addendum as of the day and
year first above written.

                               time and in the manner referred to in clause
                               12.4.2

                     fees or charges are to be borne the Landlord and the Tenant
                     will bear them equally

            12.4.5.  If the provisions for an independent surveyor to determine
                     the issue fail completely the issue will then be referred

     12.5.  Experience of arbitrator or expert

            The arbitrator or independent surveyor will if reasonably

            This clause 12.6 applies if the arbitrator or independent surveyor

            failure by one party to pay its share of the costs of the award If
            one party fails to pay its share of the costs within fourteen (14)
            days after a written request the other party may pay that share and

                                        decide and notify in writing to the

     14.2.  Basic Service Charge

            The Basic Service Charge is payable yearly by equal quarterly
            payments in advance on the usual quarter days and will initially be
            the amount stated in the Particulars but it may be changed from time
            to time to an amount which the Landlord's Surveyor reasonably
            decides and on any increase in the Basic Service Charge the new
            amount will be due and payable on (but not before) the date fourteen
            (14) days after the Landlord has given notice in writing of the new
            amount to the Tenant

     14.3.  Adjustment

            14.3.1.   As soon as practicable after the end of each Service
                      Charge Year the Landlord will deliver to the Tenant a
                      statement showing in reasonable detail the Expenditure and
                      the Tenant's Proportion of the Expenditure for that
                      Service Charge Year

            14.3.2.   In the first statement the Tenant's Proportion of the
                      Expenditure shall be calculated and payable by the Tenant
                      for the period from and including the Service Charge
                      Commencement Date until the end of that Service Charge
                      Year

            14.3.3.   If the Tenant's Proportion of the Expenditure shown by a
                      statement is more than the Basic Service Charge paid in
                      respect of the Service Charge Year the Tenant must within
                      fourteen (14) days after written demand pay to the
                      Landlord the excess

            14.3.4.   If less the Landlord will reduce the next payment of Basic
                      Service Charge or Rent by (or if the tenancy has ended
                      will pay to the Tenant within fourteen (14) days) the
                      difference

            14.3.5.   The provisions of this clause 14 will continue to apply
                      even though the Tenancy has ended but only in respect of
                      the period to the end of the Tenancy

            14.3.6.   For the purpose of calculating the Tenant's Proportion of
                      the Expenditure in respect of an incomplete Service Charge
                      Year:
<PAGE>

                     14.3.6.1  it will not be relevant to ascertain the precise
                               date in that Service Charge Year on which each
                               individual item of Expenditure was incurred

                     14.3.6.2  the Service Charge will be deemed to have accrued
                               at a uniform daily rate over the whole of the
                               relevant Service Charge Year and

                     14.3.6.3  the Service Charge will be apportioned in respect
                               of time only and will be considered as accruing
                               from day to day

                     unless in the reasonable opinion of the Landlord's Surveyor
                     it is unfair that any item should be apportioned on that
                     basis in which case the item will be apportioned on the
                     basis reasonably decided by the Landlord's Surveyor

     14.4.  Expenditure

            14.4.1.  The Expenditure comprises the total cost reasonably and
                     properly incurred by the Landlord (including contributions

                     incurred by others) in respect of the Centre on the

            14.7.2.  Except for manifest error a copy of the certified statement

                               agreement between the parties (but this is

                               lease of the Property for a term equivalent to
                               the residue which if there had been no disclaimer
                               would have remained of the Tenancy at the same
                               rent and subject to the same covenants and
                               conditions as were payable under and applicable
                               to the Tenancy immediately before the date of the

                               Guarantor will accept the new lease accordingly
                               and will execute and deliver to the Landlord a
                               counterpart of it

            15.1.4.  If the Lease is disclaimed and for any reason the Landlord
                     does not require the Guarantor to accept a new lease of the
                     Property under clause 15.1.3 the Guarantor will pay to the
                     Landlord on demand an amount equal to the difference
                     between any money received by the Landlord for the use or
                     occupation of the Property (less any expenditure incurred
                     by the Landlord in connection with the Property) and the

                   beginning on the date of such disclaimer and ending on

          15.1.5.  The Guarantor further covenants and guarantees the
                   obligations of the Tenant under any authorised guarantee

     Guarantor will pay to the Landlord on demand an amount equal to the
     difference between any money received by the Landlord for the use or
     occupation of the Property (less any expenditure incurred by the Landlord
     in connection with the Property) and the rents which would have been
     payable under the Lease had such disclaimer not occurred in both cases for

     not to any lawful assignee of such Tenant

7.   Words and expressions used in this Agreement have the same meaning as in
