THIS AGREEMENT is made as of the 21st day of January, 2000.

BETWEEN:       SIDEWARE SYSTEMS INC.
               102 - 930 West 1st Street
               North Vancouver, B.C.
               V7P 3N4

               (the "Company")                                 OF THE FIRST PART

AND:           CHRISTY WRENN
               21110 Crocus Terrace
               Ashburn, VA
               20147

               (the "Optionee")                               OF THE SECOND PART

WHEREAS the Optionee is employed by Sideware Corp. ("Sideware"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to an employment agreement dated January 24,
2000 (the "Employment Agreement");

AND WHEREAS it is a term of the Employment Agreement that the Optionee shall
receive the option herein;

NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSES that in consideration of the premises and
of the covenants and agreements herein contained the parties hereto covenant and
agree as follows:

1.   Subject to paragraphs 2, 6 and 7, for so long as the Optionee shall be a
director, senior officer, employee or permitted consultant (as defined in BOR
#96/15 issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission) of either Sideware
or the Company (together the "Related Companies"), the Optionee shall have and
be entitled to and the Company hereby grants to the Optionee the option to
purchase up to 15,000 fully paid shares of the Company (the "Optioned Shares")
from treasury at the price of US$11.08 per share (the "Option").

2.   Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set out, the Option shall
not be exercisable before February 28, 2001 and thereafter may be exercised with
respect to all or any part of the Optioned Shares at any time or from time to
time prior to the close of business on January 21, 2005.

Nothing herein shall be construed as giving to the Optionee any greater rights
with respect to the Optioned Shares than as expressly provided for in the
Employment Agreement.

3.   The right to take up shares pursuant to the Option is exercisable by notice
in writing to the Company accompanied by a certified cheque, or other form of
payment
<PAGE>
                                       2

satisfactory to the Company, in favour of the Company for the full
amount of the purchase price of the shares being then purchased. When such
payment is received, the Company covenants and agrees to issue and deliver to
the Optionee share certificates for the number of shares so purchased.

4.   This is an option agreement only and does not impose upon the Optionee any
obligation to take up and pay for any of the shares under the Option.

5.   The Option is non-assignable and non-transferable by the Optionee otherwise
than by Will or the law of intestacy and the Option may be exercised during the
lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee.

6.   If the Optionee should die while a director, senior officer, employee or
permitted consultant of one of the Related Companies, the Option may then be
exercised by the Optionee's legal heirs or personal representatives to the same
extent as if the Optionee were alive and acting in such capacity, for a period
of one year after the Optionee's death but only for such shares as the Optionee
could have received upon due exercise at the date of death.

7.   Subject to paragraph 6 hereof, the Option shall cease and become null and
void 30 days after the Optionee ceases to be a director, senior officer,
employee or permitted consultant of any of the Related Companies.

8.   The Optionee hereby represents that

     (a)  he is a bona fide director, senior officer, employee or permitted
          consultant of one of the Related Companies, and

     (b)  if he represents that he is an employee of one of the Related
          Companies, then he is, with respect to that company, an individual who
          is:

          (i)  considered an employee under applicable income tax legislation,
               for whom deductions must be made at source by the Company; or

          (ii) a full-time dependent contractor, i.e. one who works full-time
               for the Company providing services normally provided by an
               employee and is subject to the same control and direction by the
               company over the detail and methods of work as an employee of the
               company, but for whom income tax deductions are not made a
               source; or

         (iii) a part-time dependent contractor, i.e. one who works for the
               company on a continuing and regular basis for a minimum amount of
               time per week providing services normally provided by an employee
               and is subject to the same control and direction by the company
               over the details and methods of work as an employee of the
               company, but for whom income tax deductions
<PAGE>
                                       3

               are not made at source, and

     (c)  if he represents that he is a permitted consultant, he meets the
          definition of "permitted consultant" in blanket order ruling #96/15
          issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission, and the Option
          is otherwise in accordance with that blanket order ruling.

9.   If the Option is granted to the Optionee in the capacity of employee or
permitted consultant, the Company hereby represents that the Optionee is a BONA
FIDE employee or permitted consultant of one of the Related Companies.

10.  This Agreement is subject to the approval of the Canadian Venture Exchange
(the "Exchange") and, if the Optionee is an insider of the Company, the approval
of the members of the Company, which approval may have already been given in the
form of a general approval by the members at a general meeting of the Company
preceding the date of this Agreement. In the event that both of the foregoing
approvals have not been received within one year of the date of this Agreement,
this Agreement shall thereafter be null and void and of no further force and
effect.

11.  This Agreement may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by
the parties hereto, and such amendment shall be subject to the approval of the
Exchange if the Company is then listed on the Exchange. If the Optionee is an
insider of the Company at the time of a proposed amendment and the amendment
relates to a matter other than reducing the number of optioned shares or
increasing the exercise price, then such amendment shall also be subject to such
approval of the members of the Company as is then specified in Exchange policy,
which approval may have already been given in the form of a general approval by
the members at a general meeting of the Company preceding the date of the
amendment.

12.  In the event of any subdivision, consolidation or other change in the share
capital of the Company while any portion of the Option is outstanding, the
number of shares under option to the Optionee and the price thereof shall be
deemed adjusted in accordance with such subdivision, consolidation or other
change in the share capital of the Company as if the Option had been exercised
immediately prior to such subdivision, consolidation or other change.

13.  The Company hereby covenants and agrees to reserve in its treasury
sufficient shares to permit the issuance and allotment of shares to the Optionee
in the event the Optionee exercises the Option.

14.  Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.

15.  This Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
Company, its successors and assigns and the Optionee and the Optionee's personal
representatives to the extent provided in paragraph 6.

16.  In the event that any provision of this agreement is inconsistent with one
or more provisions of the Employment Agreement, the provisions of the Employment
<PAGE>
                                       4

Agreement shall govern.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties have hereunto caused these presents to be
executed as of the day and year first above written.

<PAGE>
                                      -5-

               make all other determinations necessary or advisable for
               administration of the Plan. Notwithstanding paragraph (v), while
               the Company is listed on the CDNX and is considered a Tier 2
               company, vesting schedules for Options issued pursuant to this
               Plan shall be, at a minimum, in accordance with CDNX policy,
               unless upon application CDNX permits a more favourable vesting
               schedule in any particular case.

3.4  ADMINISTRATION BY COMMITTEE - The Committee's administration of the Plan
shall in all respects be consistent with the policies and rules of any stock
exchange and/or over the counter market on which the Shares are listed. All
determinations made by the Committee in good faith on matters referred to in
Section 3.3 shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon the Company and the
relevant Optionee.

4.   SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

4.1  NUMBER OF SHARES - Subject to adjustment as contemplated by section 11, the
number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Options under
the Plan shall not exceed 7,000,000 in the aggregate. Any stock options of the
Company outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date shall not be
considered Options for any purpose under the Plan.

4.2  EXPIRY OF OPTION - Should an Option expire, terminate or cease to be
exercisable in accordance with the terms of the Plan without having been
exercised in full, then the Shares which were set aside for issue pursuant to
that Option but which were not issued shall become available for issue pursuant
to the Plan.

4.3  LIMITATIONS - Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, at no time
may the number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to stock options granted
to any one person, whether granted pursuant to the Plan or otherwise, exceed 5%
of the issued and outstanding Shares from time to time. Subject to the
foregoing, there is no limitation on the ability of the Company to grant options
to its insiders and their associates.

5.   ELIGIBILITY

5.1  ELIGIBILITY - Options may be granted to any director, officer, employee or
consultant of the Company or of any of its Affiliates. An Optionee shall not be
precluded from being granted an Option solely because such Optionee may
previously have been granted an Option under the Plan.

5.2  NO VIOLATION OF LAWS - No Option shall be granted to any Optionee unless
the Committee has determined that the grant of such Option and the exercise
thereof by the Optionee will not violate applicable securities laws.

6.   GRANTING OF OPTIONS

6.1  GRANTS OF OPTIONS - The Committee may from time to time designate
directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company or of its
Affiliates to whom Options to purchase Shares may be granted and the number of

optioned shall not exceed the number provided in Section 4.1 of this Plan.

<PAGE>
                                      -7-

6.2  OPTION AGREEMENT - Each Option granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by
an Option Agreement between the Company and the Optionee in such form as shall
be approved by the Committee, which Option Agreement shall include the following
terms:

(a)  the number of Shares subject to purchase pursuant to such Option;

(b)  the Date of Grant;

(c)  the Term, including the provisions in Section 7 of this Plan;

(d)  the Option Price, provided that the Option Price shall not be less than the
     Fair Market Value of the Shares;

(e)  any vesting schedule upon which the exercise of an Option is contingent;

(f)  a provision that the Option is not assignable or transferable; and

(g)  such other terms and conditions as the Committee deems advisable and are
     consistent with this Plan.

7.   OPTION TERM

7.1  OPTION TERM - The Term of an Option, subject to the provisions of the Plan
requiring acceleration of rights of exercise, will be such period as may be
determined by the Committee but subject to the rules of any stock exchange or
other regulatory body having jurisdiction. In addition, each Option Agreement
shall provide that:

(a)  upon the death of the Optionee, the Option may be exercised by the legal
     heirs or personal representatives of the Optionee until the date determined
     by the Committee which shall not be more than twelve months from the date
     of death;

(b)  if the position of an Optionee as a director or officer of the Company or
     of an Affiliate of the Company, or the employment of an Optionee as an
     employee or consultant of the Company or of an Affiliate of the Company, is
     terminated by the Company or its Affiliate by reason of such Optionee's
     Disability, any Option held by such Optionee that could have been exercised
     immediately prior to such termination of service shall be exercisable by
     such Optionee, or by his Guardian, for a period of 12 months following the
     termination of service of such Optionee;

(c)  if an Optionee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or
     consultant of the Company or of an Affiliate of the Company by reason of
     such Optionee's Disability dies within six months after the termination of
     such employment, any Option held by such Optionee that could have been
     exercised immediately prior to his or her death

<PAGE>
                                      -8-

     shall pass to the legal heirs or personal representatives of such Optionee,
     and shall be exercisable by such person for a period of 12 months following
     the death of such Optionee;

(d)  if the Optionee shall no longer be a director, officer, employee or
     consultant of the Company or of an Affiliate of the Company by reason other
     than such Optionee's Disability, the Option shall terminate on the expiry
     of the period, not in excess of 90 days, prescribed by the Committee at the
     Date of Grant, following the date that the Optionee ceases to be a
     director, officer, employee or consultant of either the Company or an
     Affiliate of the Company;

provided that nothing in the foregoing shall have the effect of extending the
Term of an Option beyond its original expiry date and provided that the number
of Shares that the Optionee (or his Guardian or legal heirs or personal
representatives) shall be entitled to purchase until such date of termination
shall be the number of Shares which the Optionee was entitled to purchase on the
date of death or the date the Optionee ceased to be a director, officer,
employee or consultant of the Company or its Affiliate, as the case may be,
notwithstanding the fact that the Option may have vested thereafter with respect
to the purchase of additional shares.

7.2  DEEMED NON-INTERRUPTION OF EMPLOYMENT - Employment shall be deemed to
continue intact during any sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence if the
period of such leave does not exceed 90 days or, if longer, for so long as the
Optionee's right to reemployment with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company
is guaranteed either by statute or by contract; but if the period of such leave
exceeds 90 days and the Optionee's reemployment is not so guaranteed, then his
or her employment shall be deemed to have terminated on the ninety-first day of
such leave.

7.3  VOLUNTARY TERMINATION - The Committee may, with the consent of an Optionee,
cancel any outstanding Option.

8.   EXERCISE OF OPTION

8.1  METHOD OF EXERCISE - An Option may be exercised from time to time by
delivery to the Company at its head office or such other place as may be
specified by the Company, of a written notice of exercise specifying the number
of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised accompanied by
payment in full of the purchase price of the Shares then being purchased by way
of certified cheque or bank draft. In the event of the exercise of an Option by
an Optionee's legal heirs or personal representatives, such legal heirs or
personal representatives shall also deliver evidence satisfactory to the Company
that they are entitled to exercise the Option.

<PAGE>
                                      -9-

8.2  ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATE - As soon as practicable after exercise of an
Option in accordance with Section 8.1, the Company shall issue a certificate
evidencing the Shares with respect to which the Option has been exercised. Until
the issuance of such certificate, no right to vote or receive dividends or any
other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to such Shares,
notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. No adjustment will be made for a
dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the
certificate is issued.

9.   RESTRICTIONS ON EXERCISE

9.1  REGULATORY COMPLIANCE - The exercise of each Option granted under the Plan
shall be subject to the condition that if at any time the Company shall
determine in its sole discretion that it is necessary or desirable to comply
with any legal requirements or the requirement of any stock exchange or other
regulatory authority or to obtain any approval or consent from any such stock
exchange or other regulatory authority as a condition of, or in connection with,
such exercise or the issue of Shares as a result thereof, then in any such event
such exercise shall not be effective unless such compliance shall have been
effected or such approval or consent obtained on conditions satisfactory to the
Company. The Company's inability to obtain authority from any regulatory body
having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company's counsel to be
necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve
the Company of any liability with respect to the failure to issue or sell such
Shares.

10.  RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER

10.1 NON-ASSIGNABILITY - No Option shall be assignable, negotiable or otherwise
transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and
shall, subject to the terms hereof, be exercisable only by the Optionee to whom
it is granted or such Optionee's legal heirs or personal representatives.

11.  ADJUSTMENTS

11.1 ALTERATION OF CAPITAL - In the event of any material change in the
outstanding common shares of the Company prior to complete exercise of any
Option by reason of any stock dividend, split, recapitalization, amalgamation,
merger, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares or other similar
corporate change, an equitable adjustment shall be made in one or more of the
maximum number or kind of shares issuable under the Plan or subject to
outstanding Options or the Option Price of such shares. Any such adjustment
shall be made in the sole discretion of the Board, acting on recommendations
made by the Committee, and shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes of
the Plan.

common shares generally, unless the Board determines that such offer will not
result in any change in control of the Company, or in the event of a sale of all
or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the sale, pursuant to an
agreement with the Company, of securities of the Company pursuant to which the
Company is or becomes a subsidiary of another corporation, then unless provision
is made by the acquiring corporation for the assumption of each Option or the
substitution of a substantially equivalent option therefor, the Company shall
give written notice thereof to each Optionee holding Options under the Plan and
such Optionees shall be entitled to exercise all such Options in respect of all
Shares to which Options relate to the extent previously unexercised, regardless
of whether such Optionee would otherwise be entitled to exercise such Options to
such extent at that time, and the Optionees shall be entitled to exercise such
Options up to the closing date of any of the aforementioned transactions, or
such other date determined by the Company provided that the Company has given
thirty (30) days written notice of such date to each Optionee. Any Options not
so exercised will immediately terminate.

11.3 NO FRACTIONS - No fractional Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of an
Option and accordingly, if as a result of any adjustment set out above an
Optionee would be entitled to a fractional Share, the Optionee shall have the
right to purchase only the adjusted number of full Shares and no payment or
other adjustment shall be made with respect to the fractional Share so
disregarded.

to reduce such Optionee's compensation.

13.  CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

exchange on which the Company's common shares are listed for trading and is also

15.  AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

15.1 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION - The Board may at any time and from time to time
amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part; provided, however,
that any such amendment will be subject to regulatory approval and, other than
as set out in Section 11, no such amendment may increase the maximum number of
Shares that may be optioned under the Plan, materially modify the requirements
as to eligibility for participation in the Plan or change the manner of
determining the Option Price unless such amendment is approved by the
affirmative votes of the holders of a majority of the voting securities of the
Company present or represented and entitled to vote at a meeting duly held in
accordance with the applicable corporate laws or by the written consent of the
holders of a majority of the securities of the Company entitled to vote;
provided however, that the Company may amend the terms of the Plan to comply
with the requirements of any applicable regulatory authority without obtaining
the approval of its shareholders. No such amendment, suspension or termination
shall adversely affect rights under any Options previously granted without the
consent of the Optionees to whom such Options were granted.

15.2 NO GRANT DURING SUSPENSION OF PLAN - No Option may be granted during any
suspension or after termination of the Plan. Amendment, suspension, or
termination of the Plan shall not, without the consent of the Optionee, alter or
impair any rights or obligations under any Option previously granted.

16.  COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS

16.1 Transactions under the Plan are intended to comply with all relevant
provisions of law and the rules, regulations and policies of any stock exchange
or market upon which the Shares may be listed or quoted. To the extent any
provision of the Plan or action by the Committee fails to so comply, the
Committee may, to the extent permitted by law, do any of the following as it
deems advisable:

(a)  treat such provision as null and void; or

(b)  amend the terms of the Plan to comply with such applicable laws, rules,
     regulations, or policies; or

(c)  ensure that the administration of the Plan and the terms of the individual
     option agreements comply with such applicable laws, rules, regulations, and
     policies.

17.  GOVERNING LAW

and all rights and obligations hereunder shall be determined in accordance with
