Inc., a California corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to Zomba

Warrant shall be exercisable at any time and from time to time during the period
(the "Exercise Period") commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier

and adjustments herein set forth.

          1.   Exercise of Warrant; Limitation on Exercise; Payment of Taxes.
               -------------------------------------------------------------

          1.1   Exercise of Warrant.
                -------------------

          (a)  Cash Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised by the
               -------------
Warrantholder by (i) the surrender of this Warrant to the Company, with a duly
executed Exercise Form specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased,
during normal business hours on any Business Day during the Exercise Period and
(ii) the delivery of payment to the Company, for the account of the Company, by
cash, wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account specified
by the Company, or by certified or bank cashier's check, of the Exercise Price
for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form in lawful money
of the United States of America.  The Company agrees that such Warrant Shares
shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder as the record holder of such
Warrant Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant
shall have been surrendered and payment made for the Warrant Shares as
aforesaid.  A stock certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares specified
in the Exercise Form shall be delivered to the Warrantholder as promptly as
practicable, and in any event within 10 days, thereafter.  The stock certificate
or certificates so delivered shall be in denominations of 100 shares each or
such lesser or greater denominations as may be reasonably specified by the
Warrantholder in the Exercise Form.  If this Warrant shall have been exercised
only in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the stock
certificate or certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant
evidencing the rights to purchase the remaining Warrant Shares, which new
Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.  No
adjustments shall be made on Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of this
Warrant for any cash dividends paid or payable to holders of record of Common
Stock prior to the date as of which the Warrantholder shall be deemed to be the
record holder of such Warrant Shares.

     (b)  Net Issue Exercise.  In lieu of exercising this Warrant pursuant to
          ------------------
Section 1.1(a), this Warrant may be exercised by the Warrantholder by the
surrender of this Warrant to the Company, with a duly executed Exercise Form
marked to reflect net issue exercise and specifying the number of Warrant Shares
to be purchased, during normal business hours on any Business Day during the
Exercise Period. The Company agrees that such Warrant Shares shall be deemed to
be issued to the Warrantholder as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of
the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been
surrendered as aforesaid. Upon such exercise, the Warrantholder shall be
entitled to receive shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion
thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant to the Company together
with notice of such election in which event the Company shall issue to
Warrantholder a number of shares of the Company's Common Stock computed as of
the date of surrender of this Warrant to the Company using the following
formula:

          X = Y(A-B)
              ------
                A

Where  X =  the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Warrantholder
            under this Section 1.1(b);

       Y =  the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise purchasable under
            this Warrant (at the date of such calculation);

       A =  the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one share of the
            Company's Common Stock (at the date of such calculation);

       B =  the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

     (c)  Fair Market Value.  For purposes of Section 1.1(b) "Fair Market Value"
          -----------------
of one share of the Company's Common Stock shall mean the fair market value per
share of the Company's Common Stock on the date such notice was received by the
Company as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors of the Company;
provided, however, that in the event this Warrant is issued within fifteen days
prior to the Company's initial public offering, the fair market value shall be
equal to the price at which the Board reasonably believes such shares will be
sold to the public in such offering.

     (d)  Other Rights and Obligations.  Ownership of the Warrant and Warrant
          ----------------------------
Shares shall (i) entitle the Warrantholder to any and all rights and benefits,
and (ii) impose upon the Warrantholder the same obligations, in each case, which
are applicable to Holders of Registrable Securities, as set forth in that
certain Beatnik, Inc. Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, dated as of
December 14, 1999.

     1.2  Payment of Taxes.  The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares
          ----------------
shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any stock transfer or
other issuance tax in respect thereto; provided, however, that the Warrantholder
                                       -----------------
shall be required to pay any and all taxes which may be payable in respect of
any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name
other than that of the then Warrantholder as reflected upon the books of the
Company.

                                      -2-

     1.3  Information.  Upon receipt of a written request from a Warrantholder,
          -----------
the Company agrees to deliver promptly to such Warrantholder a copy of its
current publicly available financial statements and to provide such other
publicly available information concerning the business and operations of the
Company as such Warrantholder may reasonably request in order to assist the
Warrantholder in evaluating the merits and risks of exercising the Warrant and
to make an informed investment decision in connection with such exercise.

     2.   Restrictions on Transfer; Restrictive Legends.
          ---------------------------------------------

     2.1  Restrictions on Transfer; Compliance with Securities Laws.  The
          ---------------------------------------------------------
Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant may not be transferred or
assigned in whole or in part without compliance with all applicable federal and
state securities laws by the transferor and transferee (including the delivery
of investment representation letters and legal opinions reasonably satisfactory
to the Company, if such are requested by the Company).  The Warrantholder, by
acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to be
issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Warrantholder's
own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and
that the Warrantholder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any Warrant
Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will
not result in a violation of the Securities Act or any state securities laws.
Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall, if requested by the
Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the
Warrant Shares so purchased are being acquired solely for the Warrantholder's
own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment, and not
with a view toward distribution or resale.

     2.2  Restrictive Legends.  This Warrant shall (and each Warrant issued in
          -------------------
substitution for this Warrant issued pursuant to Section 4 shall) be stamped or
otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

     "THIS WARRANT IS NOT TRANSFERABLE. ANY SHARES ACQUIRED UPON THE
     EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
     SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
     OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE
     REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED UNDER SUCH ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN
     EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT."

Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 2, each stock certificate for
Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant and each stock
certificate issued upon the direct or indirect transfer of any such Warrant
Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially
the following form:

     "THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
     REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY
     NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN
     EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED UNDER SUCH ACT OR PURSUANT
     TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT."

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrantholder may require the Company to
issue a stock certificate for Warrant Shares without a legend if (i) such
Warrant Shares, as the case may be, have been registered for resale under the
Securities Act or sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a
successor rule thereto) or (ii) the Warrantholder has received an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not
required with respect to such Warrant Shares.

     3.   Reservation and Registration of Shares, etc.
          --------------------------------------------

     The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares which are issued
upon the exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, security interests,
charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof, other than
taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue.
The Company further covenants and agrees that, during the Exercise Period, the
Company will at all times have authorized and reserved, and keep available free
from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide
for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant and will, at its
expense, upon each such reservation of shares, procure such listing of such
shares of Common Stock (subject to issuance or notice of issuance) as then may
be required on all stock exchanges on which the Common Stock is then listed or
on Nasdaq.

     4.   Representations and Covenants of Warrantholder.
          ----------------------------------------------

     This Warrant has been entered into by the Company in reliance upon the
following representations and covenants of the Warrantholder.

     4.1  Investment Purpose.  The right to acquire the Warrant Shares will be
          ------------------
acquired for investment and not with a view to the sale or distribution of any
part thereof, and the Warrantholder has no present intention of selling or
engaging in any public distribution of the same except pursuant to a
registration or exemption.

     4.2  Private Issue.  The Warrantholder understands (i) that the Warrant
          -------------
Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are not registered under the
Securities Act (or a successor rule thereto) or qualified under applicable state
securities laws on the ground that the issuance contemplated by this Warrant
will be exempt from the registration and qualifications requirements thereof,
and (ii) that the Company's reliance on such exemption is predicated on the
representations set forth in this Section 4.

     4.3  Financial Risk.  The Warrantholder has such knowledge and experience
          --------------
in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of its investment, and has the ability to bear the economic risks of its
investment.

     4.4  Indefinite Holding Period.  The Warrantholder understands that it may
          -------------------------
be required to hold the Warrant Shares for an indefinite period.  The
Warrantholder also understands that any sale of its rights as the Warrantholder
to purchase the Warrant Shares which might be made by it in reliance upon Rule
144 under the Securities Act may be made only in accordance with the terms and
conditions of that Rule.

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

     4.5  Accredited Investor.  Warrantholder is an "accredited investor" within
          -------------------
the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Rule 501 of Regulation D, as
presently in effect.

     5.   Exchange, Loss or Destruction of Warrant.
          ----------------------------------------

     Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft
or destruction, of such bond or indemnification as the Company may require, and,
in the case of such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant,
the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor.  The term
"Warrant" as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Warrants
issued in substitution or exchange for this Warrant.

     6.   Ownership of Warrant.
          --------------------

     The Company may deem and treat the person in whose name this Warrant is
registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of
ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all
purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     7.   Certain Adjustments.
          -------------------

     7.1  The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

     (a)  Stock Dividends.  If at any time prior to the exercise of this Warrant
          ---------------
in full (i) the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of any stock
dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or other distribution, or any right
to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class
or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right or (ii) the
number of shares of Common Stock shall have been increased by a subdivision or
split-up of shares of Common Stock, then, on the record date fixed for the
determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or
immediately after the effective date of subdivision or split-up, as the case may
be, the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon exercise of this
Warrant will be increased so that the Warrantholder will be entitled to receive
the number of shares of Common Stock that such Warrantholder would have owned
immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately
prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in
paragraph (f).

     (b)  Combination of Stock.  If at any time prior to the exercise of this
          --------------------
Warrant in full the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding shall have been
decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then,
immediately after the effective date of such combination, the number of shares
of Common Stock to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be decreased
so that the Warrantholder thereafter will be entitled to receive the number of
shares of Common Stock that such Warrantholder would have owned immediately
following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto,
and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph (f).

     (c)  Reorganization, etc.  If at any time prior to the exercise of this
          -------------------
Warrant in full any capital reorganization of the Company, or any
reclassification of the Common Stock, or any

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company with or into any
other person or any sale, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Company to any other person, shall be effected in such a way
that the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other
securities or assets (whether such stock, other securities or assets are issued
or distributed by the Company or another person) with respect to or in exchange
for Common Stock, then, upon exercise of this Warrant the Warrantholder shall
have the right to receive the kind and amount of stock, other securities or
assets receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger or sale, lease or other transfer by a holder of the number of shares of
Common Stock that such Warrantholder would have been entitled to receive upon
exercise of this Warrant had this Warrant been exercised immediately before such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, lease or other
transfer, subject to adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 7.

     (d)  Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip
          -----------------
shall be issued to any Warrantholder in connection with the exercise of this
Warrant.  Instead of any fractional shares of Common Stock that would otherwise
be issuable to such Warrantholder, the Company will pay to such Warrantholder a
cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to
that fractional interest of the then current Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock.

     (e)  Carryover.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7, no
          ---------
adjustment shall be made to the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered
to the Warrantholder (or to the Exercise Price) if such adjustment represents
less than 1% of the number of shares to be so delivered, but any lesser
adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together
with the next subsequent adjustment which together with any adjustments so
carried forward shall amount to 1% or more of the number of shares to be so
delivered.

     (f)  Exercise Price Adjustment.  Whenever the number of Warrant Shares
          -------------------------
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided,
the Exercise Price payable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted
by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a
fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable immediately thereafter.

     (g)  No Duplicate Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything else to the
          ------------------------
contrary contained herein, in no event will an adjustment be made under the
provisions of this Section 7 to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price for any event if an adjustment
having substantially the same effect to the Warrantholder as any adjustment that
otherwise would be made under the provisions of this Section 7 is made by the
Company.

     7.2  No Adjustment for Dividends.  Except as provided in Section 7.1, no
          ---------------------------
adjustment in respect of any dividends shall be made during the term of the
Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

     7.3  Notice of Adjustment.  Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or the
          --------------------
Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the
Company shall promptly mail by first class, postage prepaid, to the
Warrantholder, notice of such adjustment or adjustments and a certificate of the
chief financial officer of the Company setting forth the number of Warrant
Shares and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares after such adjustment,
setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and
setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made.

     8.   Notices of Corporate Action.
          ---------------------------

     In the event of

     (a)  any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of
securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled
to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for,
purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other
securities or property, or to receive any other right, or

     (b)  any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or

              ---------------------------
Plan and in the case of a Committee, the specific duties delegated by the Board

              (v)     to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan;

              (vi)    to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent

current Fair Market Value if the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock covered
by such Option shall have declined since the date the Option was granted;

              (ix)    to determine the terms and restrictions applicable to

in order to recognize differences in local law, tax policies or customs.

          (d) Effect of Administrator's Decision.  All decisions, determinations
              ----------------------------------
and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final and binding on all

              --------------------
Purchase Rights may be granted to Employees and Consultants.  Incentive Stock
Options may be granted only to Employees.  An Employee or Consultant who has
been granted an Option or Stock Purchase Right may, if he or she is otherwise
eligible, be granted additional Options or Stock Purchase Rights.

          (b) Type of Option.  Each Option shall be designated in the written
              --------------
option agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock
Option.  However, notwithstanding such designations, to the extent that the
aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares with respect to which Options designated
as Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any Optionee
during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options shall be treated as
Nonstatutory Stock Options.  For purposes of this Section 5(b), Incentive Stock
Options shall be taken into account

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares
subject to an Incentive Stock Option shall be determined as of the date of the
grant of such Option.

          (c) The Plan shall not confer upon any Optionee any right with respect
to continuation of employment or consulting relationship with the Company, nor
shall it interfere in any way with such Optionee's right or the Company's right
to terminate his or her employment or consulting relationship at any time, with
or without cause.

     6.   Term of Plan.  The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to
          ------------
occur of its adoption by the Board of Directors or its approval by the
shareholders of the Company as described in Section 19 of the Plan.  It shall
continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated under
Section 15 of the Plan.

     7.   Term of Option.  The term of each Option shall be the term stated in
          --------------
the Option Agreement; provided, however, that the term shall be no more than ten
(10) years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be
provided in the Option Agreement and provided further that, in the case of an
Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Option is granted, owns stock
representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of
all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the
Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter
term as may be provided in the written option agreement.

     8.   Option Exercise Price and Consideration.
          ---------------------------------------

          (a) The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant
to exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the Board and
set forth in the applicable agreement, but shall be subject to the following:

              (i)     In the case of an Incentive Stock Option that is:

                      (A) granted to an Employee who, at the time of the grant
of such Incentive Stock Option, owns stock representing more than ten percent
(10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company
or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than
110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

                      (B) granted to any other Employee, the per Share exercise
price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date
of grant.

              (ii)    In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option that is:

                      (A) granted to a person who, at the time of the grant of
such Option, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair
Market Value per Share on the date of the grant.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

                      (B) granted to any person, the per Share exercise price
shall be no less than 85% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of
grant.

          (b) The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon
exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by
the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall be
determined at the time of grant) and may consist entirely of (1) cash, (2)
check, (3) promissory note, (4) other Shares that (x) in the case of Shares
acquired upon exercise of an Option, have been owned by the Optionee for more
than six months on the date of surrender or such other period as may be required
to avoid a charge to the Company's earnings, and (y) have a Fair Market Value on
the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to
which such Option shall be exercised, (5) authorization for the Company to
retain from the total number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised that
number of Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the
exercise price for the total number of Shares as to which the Option is
exercised, (6) delivery of a properly executed exercise notice together with
such other documentation as the Administrator and the broker, if applicable,
shall require to effect an exercise of the Option and delivery to the Company of
the sale or loan proceeds required to pay the exercise price and any applicable
income or employment taxes, (7) delivery of an irrevocable subscription
agreement for the Shares that irrevocably obligates the option holder to take
and pay for the Shares not more than twelve months after the date of delivery of
the subscription agreement, (8) any combination of the foregoing methods of
payment, or (9) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance
of Shares to the extent permitted under Applicable Laws.  In making its
determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Administrator shall
consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to
benefit the Company.

     9.   Exercise of Option.
          ------------------

          (a) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder.  Any Option
              -----------------------------------------------
granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions
as determined by the Administrator, and reflected in the written option
agreement, which may include vesting requirements and/or performance criteria
with respect to the Company and/or the Optionee; provided that such Option shall
become exercisable at the rate of at least twenty percent (20%) per year over
five (5) years from the date the Option is granted.  In the event that any of
the Shares issued upon exercise of an Option should be subject to a right of
repurchase in the Company's favor, such repurchase right shall lapse at the rate
of at least twenty percent (20%) per year over five (5) years from the date the
Option is granted.

              An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

              An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of
such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the
Option by the person entitled to exercise the Option and the Company has
received full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is
exercised. Full payment may, as authorized by the Board, consist of any
consideration and method of payment allowable under Section 8(b) of the Plan.
Until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the
Company or of a

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) of the stock certificate
evidencing such Shares, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other
rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock, not
withstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be
issued) such stock certificate promptly upon 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 stock certificate is issued, except as provided in
Section 12 of the Plan.

              Exercise of an Option in any manner shall result in a decrease in
the number of Shares that thereafter may be available, both for purposes of the
Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the
Option is exercised.

          (b) Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship.  Subject to
              ----------------------------------------------------
Section 9(c), in the event of termination of an Optionee's Continuous Status as
an Employee or Consultant with the Company, such Optionee may, but only within
three (3) months (or such other period of time not less than thirty (30) days as
is determined by the Administrator, with such determination in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option being made at the time of grant of the Option and not
exceeding three (3) months) after the date of such termination (but in no event
later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the
Option Agreement), exercise his or her Option to the extent that the Optionee
was entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination.  To the extent that
Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date of such
termination, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent so
entitled within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.  No
termination shall be deemed to occur and this Section 9(b) shall not apply if
(i) the Optionee is a Consultant who becomes an Employee; or (ii) the Optionee
is an Employee who becomes a Consultant.

          (c) Disability of Optionee.
              ----------------------

              (i)     Notwithstanding Section 9(b) above, in the event of
termination of an Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant as a
result of his or her total and permanent disability (within the meaning of
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may, but only within twelve (12) months
from the date of such termination (but in no event later than the expiration
date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise
the Option to the extent otherwise entitled to exercise it at the date of such
termination. To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option
at the date of termination, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option to the
extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

              (ii)    In the event of termination of an Optionee's Continuous
Status as an Employee or Consultant as a result of a disability which does not
fall within the meaning of total and permanent disability (as set forth in
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may, but only within six (6) months from
the date of such termination (but in no event later than the expiration date of
the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise the
Option to the extent otherwise entitled to exercise it at the date of such
termination. However, to the extent that such Optionee fails to exercise an
Option which is an Incentive Stock Option ("ISO") (within the meaning of Section
                                            ---
422 of the Code) within three (3) months of the date of

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

such termination, the Option will not qualify for ISO treatment under the Code.
To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date
of termination, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent so
entitled within six months (6) from the date of termination, the Option shall
terminate.

          (d) Death of Optionee.  In the event of the death of an Optionee
              -----------------
during the period of Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant since the
date of grant of the Option, or within thirty (30) days following termination of
Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant, the Option may be
exercised, at any time within six (6) months following the date of death (but in
no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth
in the Option Agreement), by Optionee's estate or by a person who acquired the
right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent
of the right to exercise that had accrued at the date of death or, if earlier,
the date of termination of Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee or
Consultant.  To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option
at the date of death or termination, as the case may be, or if Optionee does not
exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein,
the Option shall terminate.

          (e) Rule 16b-3.  Options granted to Reporting Persons shall comply
              ----------
with Rule 16b-3 and shall contain such additional conditions or restrictions as
may be required thereunder to qualify for the maximum exemption for Plan
transactions.

          (f) Buyout Provisions.  The Administrator may at any time offer to buy
              -----------------
out for a payment in cash or Shares, an Option previously granted, based on such
terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the
Optionee at the time that such offer is made.

     10.  Stock Purchase Rights.
          ---------------------

          (a) Rights to Purchase.  Stock Purchase Rights may be issued either
              ------------------
alone, in addition to, or in tandem with other awards granted under the Plan
and/or cash awards made outside of the Plan.  After the Administrator determines
that it will offer Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan, it shall advise the
offeree in writing of the terms, conditions and restrictions related to the
offer, including the number of Shares that such person shall be entitled to
purchase, the price to be paid (which price shall not be less than 85% of the
Fair Market Value of the Shares as of the date of the offer, or, in the case of
a person owning stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary, the price shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the
Fair Market Value of the Shares as of the date of the offer), and the time
within which such person must accept such offer, which shall in no event exceed
thirty (30) days from the date upon which the Administrator made the
determination to grant the Stock Purchase Right.  The offer shall be accepted by
execution of a Restricted Stock purchase agreement in the form determined by the
Administrator.  Shares purchased pursuant to the grant of a Stock Purchase Right
shall be referred to herein as "Restricted Stock."

          (b) Repurchase Option.  Unless the Administrator determines otherwise,
              -----------------
the Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase
option exercisable

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the purchaser's employment with
the Company for any reason (including death or disability). The purchase price
for Shares repurchased pursuant to the Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall
be the original purchase price paid by the purchaser and may be paid by
cancellation of any indebtedness of the purchaser to the Company. The repurchase
option shall lapse at such rate as the Administrator may determine, but at a
minimum rate of 20% per year.

          (c) Other Provisions.  The Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall
              ----------------
contain such other terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the
Plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.  In
addition, the provisions of Restricted Stock purchase agreements need not be the
same with respect to each purchaser.

          (d) Rights as a Shareholder.  Once the Stock Purchase Right is
              -----------------------
exercised, the purchaser shall have the rights equivalent to those of a
shareholder, and shall be a shareholder when his or her purchase is entered upon
the records of the duly authorized transfer agent of the Company.  No adjustment
will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to
the date the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, except as provided in Section 12
of the Plan.

     11.  Stock Withholding to Satisfy Withholding Tax Obligations.  At the
          --------------------------------------------------------
discretion of the Administrator, Optionees may satisfy withholding obligations
as provided in this paragraph.  When an Optionee incurs tax liability in
connection with an Option or Stock Purchase Right, which tax liability is
subject to tax withholding under applicable tax laws, and the Optionee is
obligated to pay the Company an amount required to be withheld under applicable
tax laws, the Optionee may satisfy the withholding tax obligation by one or some
combination of the following methods:  (a) by cash payment, or (b) out of
Optionee's current compensation, (c) if permitted by the Administrator, in its
discretion, by surrendering to the Company Shares that (i) in the case of Shares
previously acquired from the Company, have been owned by the Optionee for more
than six months on the date of surrender, and (ii) have a fair market value on
the date of surrender equal to or less than Optionee's marginal tax rate times
the ordinary income recognized, or (d) by electing to have the Company withhold
from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option, or the Shares to be
issued in connection with the Stock Purchase Right, if any, that number of
Shares having a fair market value equal to the amount required to be withheld.
For this purpose, the fair market value of the Shares to be withheld shall be
determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined
(the "Tax Date").
      --------

          Any surrender by a Reporting Person of previously owned Shares to
satisfy tax withholding obligations arising upon exercise of this Option must
comply with the applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3.

          All elections by an Optionee to have Shares withheld to satisfy tax
withholding obligations shall be made in writing in a form acceptable to the
Administrator and shall be subject to the following restrictions:

          (a) the election must be made on or prior to the applicable Tax Date;

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

          (b) once made, the election shall be irrevocable as to the particular
Shares of the Option or Stock Purchase Right as to which the election is made;
and

          (c) all elections shall be subject to the consent or disapproval of
the Administrator.

          In the event the election to have Shares withheld is made by an
Optionee and the Tax Date is deferred under Section 83 of the Code because no
election is filed under Section 83(b) of the Code, the Optionee shall receive
the full number of Shares with respect to which the Option or Stock Purchase
Right is exercised but such Optionee shall be unconditionally obligated to
tender back to the Company the proper number of Shares on the Tax Date.

     12.  Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Merger or Certain Other
          -------------------------------------------------------------------
Transactions.
------------

          (a) Changes in Capitalization.  Subject to any required action by the
              -------------------------
shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
each outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right, and the number of shares of
Common Stock that have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to
which no Options or Stock Purchase Rights have yet been granted or that have
been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Option or Stock
Purchase Right, as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each
such outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right, shall be proportionately
adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common
Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend,
combination, recapitalization or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any
other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock
effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however,
that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed
to have been "effected without receipt of consideration."  Such adjustment shall
be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final,
binding and conclusive.  Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the
Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares
of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall
be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject
to an Option or Stock Purchase Right.

          (b) Dissolution or Liquidation.  In the event of the proposed
              --------------------------
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Board shall notify the Optionee
at least fifteen (15) days prior to such proposed action.  To the extent it has
not been previously exercised, the Option or Stock Purchase Right will terminate
immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

          (c) Merger or Sale of Assets.  In the event of a proposed sale of all
              ------------------------
or substantially all of the Company's assets or a merger of the Company with or
into another corporation where the successor corporation issues its securities
to the Company's shareholders, each outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right
shall be assumed or an equivalent option or right shall be substituted by such
successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation,
unless the successor corporation does not agree to assume the Option or

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

Stock Purchase Right or to substitute an equivalent option or right, in which
case such Option or Stock Purchase Right shall terminate upon the consummation
of the merger or sale of assets.

          (d) Certain Distributions.  In the event of any distribution to the
              ---------------------
Company's shareholders of securities of any other entity or other assets (other
than dividends payable in cash or stock of the Company) without receipt of
consideration by the Company, the Administrator may, in its discretion,
appropriately adjust the price per share of Common Stock covered by each
outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right to reflect the effect of such
distribution.

     13.  Non-Transferability of Options and Stock Purchase Rights.  Options and
          --------------------------------------------------------
Stock Purchase Rights may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of
descent or distribution and may be exercised or purchased during the lifetime of
the Optionee or Stock Purchase Rights Holder only by the Optionee or Stock
Purchase Rights Holder.

     14.  Time of Granting Options and Stock Purchase Rights.  The date of grant
          --------------------------------------------------
of an Option or Stock Purchase Right shall, for all purposes, be the date on
which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Option or Stock
Purchase Right, or such other date as is determined by the Board; provided
however that in the case of any Incentive Stock Option, the grant date shall be
the later of the date on which the Administrator makes the determination
granting such Incentive Stock Option or the date of commencement of the
Optionee's employment relationship with the Company.  Notice of the
determination shall be given to each Employee or Consultant to whom an Option or
Stock Purchase Right is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of
such grant.

     15.  Amendment and Termination of the Plan.
          -------------------------------------

          (a) Authority to Amend or Terminate.  The Board may at any time amend,
              -------------------------------
alter, suspend or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration, suspension
or discontinuation shall be made that would impair the rights of any Optionee
under any grant theretofore made, without his or her consent.  In addition, to
the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Rule 16b-3 or with Section 422
of the Code (or any other applicable law or regulation, including the
requirements of any Stock Exchange), the Company shall obtain shareholder
approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as
required.

          (b) Effect of Amendment or Termination.  No amendment or termination
              ----------------------------------
of the Plan shall adversely affect Options already granted, unless mutually
agreed otherwise between the Optionee and the Board, which agreement must be in
writing and signed by the Optionee and the Company.

     16.  Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.  Shares shall not be issued
          ----------------------------------
pursuant to the exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right unless the
exercise of such Option or Stock Purchase Right and the issuance and delivery of
such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law,
including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the
Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the
requirements of any Stock Exchange.  As a condition to the exercise of an
Option, the Company

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

may require the person exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the
time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for
investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares
if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required
by law.

     17.  Reservation of Shares.  The Company, during the term of this Plan,
          ---------------------
will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be
sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.  The inability of the
Company 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 in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which
such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

     18.  Agreements.  Options and Stock Purchase Rights shall be evidenced by
          ----------
written agreements in such form as the Administrator shall approve from time to
time.

     19.  Shareholder Approval.  Continuance of the Plan shall be subject to
          --------------------
approval by the shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or
after the date the Plan is adopted.  Such shareholder approval shall be obtained
in the degree and manner required under applicable state and federal law and the
rules of any Stock Exchange upon which the Common Stock is listed.  All Options
and Stock Purchase Rights issued under the Plan shall become void in the event
such approval is not obtained.

     20.  Information and Documents to Optionees and Purchasers.  The Company
          -----------------------------------------------------
shall provide financial statements at least annually to each Optionee and to
each individual who acquired Shares Pursuant to the Plan, during the period such
Optionee or purchaser has one or more Options or Stock Purchase Rights
outstanding, and in the case of an individual who acquired Shares pursuant to
the Plan, during the period such individual owns such Shares.  The Company shall
not be required to provide such information if the issuance of Options or Stock
Purchase Rights under the Plan is limited to key employees whose duties in
connection with the Company assure their access to equivalent information.  In
addition, at the time of issuance of any securities under the Plan, the Company
shall provide to the Optionee or the Purchaser a copy of the Plan and a copy of
the agreement(s) pursuant to which securities under the Plan are issued.

                            STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
                            ----------------------

     1.   Grant of Option. Beatnik, Inc. a California corporation (the
          ---------------
"Company"), hereby grants to ((Optionee)) ("Optionee") an option (the "Option")
to purchase a total number of shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") set forth in
the Notice of Stock Option Grant, at the exercise price per share set forth in
the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the "Exercise Price") subject to the terms,
definitions and provisions of the Beatnik, Inc. 1997 Stock Plan (the "Plan")
adopted by the Company, which is incorporated herein by reference. Unless
otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same
defined meanings in this Option.

If designated an Incentive Stock Option, this Option is intended to qualify as
an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code.

     2.   Exercise of Option. This Option shall be exercisable during its Term
          ------------------
in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 of the Plan as follows:

          (a)  Right to Exercise.
               -----------------

               (i)    This Option may be exercised in whole or in part at any
time after the Date of Grant. As to Shares which have not yet vested under the
vesting schedule indicated on the Notice of Stock Option Grant, Optionee shall
execute as a condition to such exercise of this Option, the Early Exercise
Notice and Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A (the
                                                                  ---------
"Early Exercise Agreement"). If Optionee chooses to exercise this Option solely
 ------------------------
as to Shares which have vested under the vesting schedule indicated on the
Notice of Stock Option Grant, Optionee shall complete and execute the form of
Exercise Notice and Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement attached hereto as
Exhibit B (the "Exercise Agreement"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
---------       ------------------
may in its discretion prescribe or accept a different form of notice of exercise
and/or stock purchase agreement if such forms are otherwise consistent with this
Agreement, the Plan and then-applicable law.

               (ii)   This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a
share.

               (iii)  In the event of Optionee's death, disability or other
termination of employment or consulting relationship, the exercisability of the
Option is governed by Sections 5, 6 and 7 below, subject to the limitation
contained in Section 2(a)(iv) below.

               (iv)   In no event may this Option be exercised after the date of
expiration of the Term of this Option as set forth in the Notice of Stock Option
Grant.

          (b)  Method of Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable by execution
               ------------------
and delivery of the Early Exercise Agreement or the Exercise Agreement,
whichever is applicable, or of any other written notice approved for such
purpose by the Company which shall state the election to exercise the Option,
the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being

                                      -1-
<PAGE>

exercised, and such other representations and agreements as to the holder's
investment intent with respect to such shares of Common Stock as may be required
by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. Such written notice shall
be signed by Optionee and shall be delivered in person or by certified mail to
the Secretary of the Company. The written notice shall be accompanied by payment
of the Exercise Price. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt
by the Company of such written notice accompanied by the Exercise Price.

          No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless
such issuance and such exercise shall comply with all relevant provisions of
applicable law, including the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the
Shares may then be listed.  Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes
the Shares shall be considered transferred to Optionee on the date on which the
Option is exercised with respect to such Shares.

     3.   Method of Payment. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be by any of
          -----------------
the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Optionee:

          (a)  cash;

          (b)  check;

          (c)  surrender of other shares of Common Stock of the Company which
(i) in the case of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a Company option,
have been owned by Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of
surrender, and (ii) have a fair market value on the date of surrender equal to
the Exercise Price of the Shares as to which the Option is being exercised;

          (d)  if there is a public market for the Shares and they are
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, delivery of a properly
executed exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to
deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds required to
pay the exercise price; or

          (e)  a promissory note in the form attached to this Agreement as
Exhibit C, or in any other form approved by the Company.
---------

     4.   Restrictions on Exercise. This Option may not be exercised until such
          ------------------------
time as the Plan has been approved by the shareholders of the Company, or if the
issuance of such Shares upon such exercise or the method of payment of
consideration for such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable
federal or state securities or other law or regulation, including any rule under
Part 207 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations as promulgated by the
Federal Reserve Board. As a condition to the exercise of this Option, the
Company may require Optionee to make any representation and warranty to the
Company as may be required by any applicable law or regulation.

     5.   Termination of Relationship. In the event of termination of Optionee's
          ---------------------------
Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant, Optionee may, to the extent
otherwise so entitled at the date of such termination (the "Termination Date"),
                                                            ----------------
exercise this Option during the Termination Period set forth in the Notice of
Stock Option Grant. To the extent that Optionee

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

was not entitled to exercise this Option at such Termination Date, or if
Optionee does not exercise this Option within the Termination Period, the Option
shall terminate.

     6.   Disability of Optionee.
          ----------------------

          (a)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5 above, in the event
of termination of Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant as a
result of his or her total and permanent disability (as defined in Section
22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may, but only within twelve (12) months from the
Termination Date (but in no event later than the Expiration Date set forth in
the Notice of Stock Option Grant and in Section 9 below), exercise this Option
to the extent he or she was entitled to exercise it at such Termination Date. To
the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option Termination
Date, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled
within the time specified in this Section 6(a), the Option shall terminate.

          (b)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5 above, in the event
of termination of Optionee's consulting relationship or Continuous Status as an
Employee as a result of a disability not constituting a total and permanent
disability (as set forth in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may, but
only within six (6) months from the Termination Date (but in no event later than
the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant and in Section
9 below), exercise the Option to the extent Optionee was entitled to exercise it
as of such Termination Date; provided, however, that if this is an Incentive
Stock Option and Optionee fails to exercise this Incentive Stock Option within
three (3) months from the Termination Date, this Option will cease to qualify as
an Incentive Stock Option (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) and Optionee
will be treated for federal income tax purposes as having received ordinary
income at the time of such exercise in an amount generally measured by the
difference between the Exercise Price for the Shares and the fair market value
of the Shares on the date of exercise. To the extent that Optionee was not
entitled to exercise the Option at the Termination Date, or if Optionee does not
exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified in this
Section 6(b), the Option shall terminate.

     7.   Death of Optionee. In the event of the death of Optionee (a) during
          -----------------
the Term of this Option and while an Employee or Consultant of the Company and
having been in Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant since the date of
grant of the Option, or (b) within thirty (30) days after Optionee's Termination
Date, the Option may be exercised at any time within six (6) months following
the date of death (but in no event later than the Expiration Date set forth in
the Notice of Stock Option Grant and in Section 9 below), by Optionee's estate
or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or
inheritance, but only to the extent of the right to exercise that had accrued at
the Termination Date.

     8.   Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be transferred in
          -----------------------------
any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and
may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by him or her. The terms
of this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs,
successors and assigns of Optionee.

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

     9.   Term of Option. This Option may be exercised only within the Term set
          --------------
forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, subject to the limitations set forth
in Section 7 of the Plan.

     10.  Tax Consequences. Set forth below is a brief summary as of the date of
          ----------------
this Option of certain of the federal and California tax consequences of
exercise of this Option and disposition of the Shares under the laws in effect
as of the Date of Grant. THIS SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX
LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT A TAX
ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES.

          (a)  Exercise of Incentive Stock Option. If this Option qualifies as
               ----------------------------------
an Incentive Stock Option, there will be no regular federal or California income
tax liability upon the exercise of the Option, although the excess, if any, of
the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise or (if later) on the
date any forfeiture restrictions applicable to the option shares lapse (but see
subsection (c) below) over the Exercise Price will be treated as an adjustment
to the alternative minimum tax for federal tax purposes and may subject Optionee
to the alternative minimum tax in the year of exercise (or, if later, the date
on which the restrictions lapse).

          (b)  Exercise of Nonstatutory Stock Option. If this Option does not
               -------------------------------------
qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, there may be a regular federal income tax
liability and a California income tax liability upon the exercise of the Option.
Optionee will be treated as having received compensation income (taxable at
ordinary income tax rates) at the time of exercise, or (if later) on the date
any restrictions applicable to the Shares lapse (but see subsection (c) below)
equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares on the date
of exercise (or, if later, the date on which the restrictions lapse) over the
Exercise Price. If Optionee is an employee, the Company will be required to
withhold from Optionee's compensation or collect from Optionee and pay to the
applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this
compensation income at the time of exercise (or, if later, the date on which the
restrictions lapse).

          (c)  Section 83(b) Election. If Optionee exercises this Option for
Shares that are subject to a restriction, such as a repurchase option
exercisable by the Company at Optionee's original purchase price upon Optionee's
termination of employment ("Unvested Shares"), then the Optionee may elect
                            ---------------
under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed under the income and alternative
minimum tax rules, as applicable, at the time the Unvested Shares are acquired
rather than when, and as, such shares cease to be subject to the restriction.
Such election must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30)
days after the date of exercise. Failure to make this filing for the exercise of
Unvested Shares within the applicable thirty (30) day period will result in the
recognition of the applicable form of income by Optionee as the forfeiture
restrictions lapse.

          (d)  Disposition of Shares. In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock
               ---------------------
Option, if Shares are held for at least one year, any gain realized on
disposition of the Shares will be treated as long-term capital gain for federal
and California income tax purposes. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, if
Shares transferred pursuant to the Option are held for at least one year after
exercise and are disposed of at least two years after the Date of Grant, any
gain realized on disposition of the Shares will also be treated as long-term
capital gain for federal and California

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

income tax purposes. If Shares purchased under an Incentive Stock Option are
disposed of within such one-year or two-year period, any gain realized on such
disposition will be treated as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income
rates) to the extent of the difference between the Exercise Price and the lesser
of (i) the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise, or (ii) the
sale price of the Shares.

          (e)  Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of Incentive Stock Option
               -------------------------------------------------------------
Shares. If the Option granted to Optionee herein is an Incentive Stock Option,
------
and if Optionee sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired
pursuant to the Incentive Stock Option on or before the later of (i) the date
two years after the Date of Grant, or (ii) the date one year after the date of
exercise, Optionee shall immediately notify the Company in writing of such
disposition. Optionee acknowledges and agrees that he or she may be subject to
income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized by
Optionee from the early disposition by payment in cash or out of the current
earnings paid to Optionee.

     11.  Withholding Tax Obligations. Optionee understands that, upon either
          ---------------------------
the exercise of a Nonstatutory Stock Option or the date on which any
restrictions applicable to the Shares lapse, he or she will recognize income for
tax purposes in an amount equal to the excess of the then fair market value of
the Shares on the applicable date over the Exercise Price. If Optionee is an
employee, the Company will be required to withhold from Optionee's compensation,
or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount
equal to a percentage of this compensation income. Additionally, Optionee may at
some point be required to satisfy tax withholding obligations with respect to
the disqualifying disposition of an Incentive Stock Option. Optionee shall
satisfy his or her tax withholding obligation arising upon the exercise of this
Option by one or some combination of the following methods: (a) by cash payment,
(b) out of Optionee's current compensation, (c) if permitted by the
Administrator, in its discretion, by surrendering to the Company Shares which
(i) in the case of Shares previously acquired from the Company, have been owned
by Optionee for more than six months on the date of surrender, and (ii) have a
fair market value on the date of surrender equal to or greater than Optionee's
marginal tax rate times the ordinary income recognized, or (d) by electing to
have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the
Option that number of Shares having a fair market value equal to the amount
required to be withheld. For this purpose, the fair market value of the Shares
to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be
withheld is to be determined (the "Tax Date").
                                   --------

          If Optionee is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act (an
"Insider"), any surrender of previously owned Shares to satisfy tax withholding
 -------
obligations arising upon exercise of this Option must comply with the applicable
provisions of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act ("Rule 16b-3").
                                                              ----------

          All elections by Optionee to have Shares withheld to satisfy tax
withholding obligations shall be made in writing in a form acceptable to the
Administrator and shall be subject to the following restrictions:

          (a)  the election must be made on or prior to the applicable Tax Date;

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

          (b)  once made, the election shall be irrevocable as to the particular
Shares of the Option as to which the election is made; and

          (c)  all elections shall be subject to the consent or disapproval of
the Administrator.

     12.  Market Standoff Agreement. In connection with the initial public
          -------------------------
offering of the Company's securities and upon request of the Company or the
underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company's securities,
Optionee hereby agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any
option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Shares (other than those
included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company
or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed
180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by
the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting
the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public
offering.

be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one document.

OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO THE
OPTION HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING CONSULTANCY OR EMPLOYMENT AT THE WILL
OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS OPTION OR
ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER).  OPTIONEE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT
NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT, NOR IN THE COMPANY'S STOCK PLAN WHICH IS INCORPORATED
HEREIN BY REFERENCE, SHALL CONFER UPON OPTIONEE ANY RIGHT WITH RESPECT TO
CONTINUATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR CONSULTANCY BY THE COMPANY, NOR SHALL IT INTERFERE
IN ANY WAY WITH OPTIONEE'S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE OPTIONEE'S
EMPLOYMENT OR CONSULTANCY AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.

Optionee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that he or
she is familiar with the terms and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts this
Option subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof.  Optionee has
reviewed the Plan and this Option in their entirety, has had an opportunity to
obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Option and fully
understands all provisions of the Option.  Optionee hereby agrees to accept as
binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the
Administrator upon any questions arising under the Plan or this Option.

                                 BEATNIK, INC.

                                1997 STOCK PLAN

         EARLY EXERCISE NOTICE AND RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
         -------------------------------------------------------------

     This Agreement ("Agreement") is made as of ______________, by and between
                      ---------
Beatnik, Inc., a California corporation (the "Company"), and ((Optionee))
                                              -------
("Purchaser").  To the extent any capitalized terms used in this Agreement are
  ---------
not defined, they shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the 1997 Stock
Plan.

     1.   Exercise of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
          ------------------
Purchaser hereby elects to exercise his or her option to purchase ______________
shares of the Common Stock (the "Shares") of the Company under and pursuant to
                                 ------
the Company's 1997 Stock Plan (the "Plan") and the Stock Option Agreement dated
                                    ----
______________ (the "Option Agreement"). Of these Shares, Purchaser has elected
                     ----------------
to purchase _______________ of those Shares which have become vested as of the
date hereof under the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice of Stock Option
Grant (the "Vested Shares") and _____________ Shares which have not yet vested
            -------------
under such Vesting Schedule (the "Unvested Shares"). The purchase price for the
                                  ---------------
Shares shall be $((ExercisePrice)) per Share for a total purchase price of
$_______________. The term "Shares" refers to the purchased Shares and all
                            ------
securities received in replacement of the Shares or as stock dividends or
splits, all securities received in replacement of the Shares in a
recapitalization, merger, reorganization, exchange or the like, and all new,
substituted or additional securities or other properties to which Purchaser is
entitled by reason of Purchaser's ownership of the Shares.

     2.   Time and Place of Exercise. The purchase and sale of the Shares under
          --------------------------
this Agreement shall occur at the principal office of the Company simultaneously
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2(b) of the Option Agreement. On such date, the Company
will deliver to Purchaser a certificate representing the Shares to be purchased
by Purchaser (which shall be issued in Purchaser's name) against payment of the
purchase price therefor by Purchaser by (a) check made payable to the Company,
(b) cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to Purchaser, (c) delivery of
shares of the Common Stock of the Company in accordance with Section 3 of the
Option Agreement, (d) delivery of a promissory note in the form attached as
Exhibit C to the Option Agreement (or in any form acceptable to the Company), or
---------
(e) by a combination of the foregoing. If Purchaser delivers a promissory note
as partial or full payment of the purchase price, Purchaser will also deliver a
Pledge and Security Agreement in the form attached to Exhibit D to the Option
                                                      ---------
Agreement (or in any form acceptable to the Company).

     3.   Limitations on Transfer. In addition to any other limitation on
          -----------------------
transfer created by applicable securities laws, Purchaser shall not assign,
encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares while the Shares are subject
to the Company's Repurchase Option (as defined below), except as provided below.
After any Shares have been released from such Repurchase Option, Purchaser shall
not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in such Shares except in
compliance with the provisions below and applicable securities laws.

                                      A-1
<PAGE>

          (a)  Repurchase Option.
               -----------------

               (i)   In the event of the voluntary or involuntary termination of
Purchaser's employment or consulting relationship with the Company for any
reason (including death or disability), with or without cause, the Company shall
upon the date of such termination (the "Termination Date") have an irrevocable,
                                        ----------------
exclusive option (the "Repurchase Option") for a period of 60 days from such
                       -----------------
date to repurchase all or any portion of the Unvested Shares held by Purchaser
as of the Termination Date which have not yet been released from the Company's
Repurchase Option at the original purchase price per Share specified in Section
1 (adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends and the like).

               (i)   The Repurchase Option shall be exercised by the Company by
written notice to Purchaser or Purchaser's executor and, at the Company's
option, (A) by delivery to Purchaser or Purchaser's executor with such notice of
a check in the amount of the purchase price for the Shares being purchased, or
(B) in the event Purchaser is indebted to the Company, by cancellation by the
Company of an amount of such indebtedness equal to the purchase price for the
Shares being repurchased, or (C) by a combination of (A) and (B) so that the
combined payment and cancellation of indebtedness equals such purchase price.
Upon delivery of such notice and payment of the purchase price in any of the
ways described above, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of
the Shares being repurchased and all rights and interest therein or related
thereto, and the Company shall have the right to transfer to its own name the
number of Shares being repurchased by the Company, without further action by
Purchaser.

               (ii)  One hundred percent (100%) of the Unvested Shares shall
initially be subject to the Repurchase Option. The Unvested Shares shall be
released from the Repurchase Option in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set
forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant until all Shares are released from the
Repurchase Option. Fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole
share.

          (b)  Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Purchaser or
               ----------------------
any transferee of Purchaser (either being sometimes referred to herein as the
"Holder") may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift
 ------
or operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first
refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Section 3(b) (the "Right of First Refusal").
                   ----------------------

               (i)   Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall
deliver to the Company a written notice (the "Notice") stating: (i) the Holder's
                                              ------
bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of
each proposed purchaser or other transferee ("Proposed Transferee"); (iii) the
                                              -------------------
number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the
terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer. The Holder shall offer
the Shares at the same price (the "Offered Price") and upon the same terms (or
                                   -------------
terms as similar as reasonably possible) to the Company or its assignee(s).

               (ii)  Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within
                     ----------------------------------
thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s)
may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less
than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred

                                      A-2
<PAGE>

to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined
in accordance with subsection (iii) below.

               (iii) Purchase Price. The purchase price ("Purchase Price") for
                     --------------                       --------------
the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section 3(b)
shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other
than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.

               (iv)  Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at
                     -------
the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder
to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee),
or by any combination thereof within 30 days after receipt of the Notice or in
the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.

               (v)   Holder's Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed
                     --------------------------
in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased
by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3(b), then the
Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at
the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other
transfer is consummated within 60 days after the date of the Notice and provided
further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any
applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that
the provisions of this Section 3 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the
hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not
transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder
proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the
Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company
and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal before
any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred.

               (vi)  Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the
                     --------------------------------------
contrary contained in this Section 3(b) notwithstanding, the transfer of any or
all of the Shares during Purchaser's lifetime or on Purchaser's death by will or
intestacy to Purchaser's immediate family or a trust for the benefit of
Purchaser's immediate family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section
3(b). "Immediate Family" as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or
       ----------------
antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In such case, the transferee or
other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the
provisions of this Section, and there shall be no further transfer of such
Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.

          (c)  Involuntary Transfer.
               --------------------

               (i)   Company's Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In
                     -----------------------------------------------------
the event, at any time after the date of this Agreement, of any transfer by
operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce, but
excluding a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 3(b)(vi) above)
of all or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company
shall have an option to purchase all of the Shares transferred at the greater of
the purchase price paid by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the fair
market

                                      A-3
<PAGE>

value of the Shares on the date of transfer. Upon such a transfer, the person
acquiring the Shares shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such
transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for
a period of thirty (30) days following receipt by the Company of written notice
by the person acquiring the Shares.

               (ii)  Price for Involuntary Transfer. With respect to any stock
                     ------------------------------
to be transferred pursuant to Section 3(c)(i), the price per Share shall be a
price set by the Board of Directors of the Company that will reflect the current
value of the stock in terms of present earnings and future prospects of the
Company. The Company shall notify Purchaser or his or her executor of the price
so determined within thirty (30) days after receipt by it of written notice of
the transfer or proposed transfer of Shares. However, if the Purchaser does not
agree with the valuation as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company,
the Purchaser shall be entitled to have the valuation determined by an
independent appraiser to be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the
Purchaser and whose fees shall be borne equally by the Company and the
Purchaser.

          (d)  Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the
               ----------
Shares may be assigned in whole or in part to any shareholder or shareholders of
the Company or other persons or organizations; provided, however, that an
                                               --------  -------
assignee, other than a corporation that is the parent or a 100% owned subsidiary
of the Company, must pay the Company, upon assignment of such right, cash equal
to the difference between the original purchase price and fair market value, if
the original purchase price is less than the fair market value of the Shares
subject to the assignment.

          (e)  Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or
               -----------------------------------
any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to
the provisions of this Agreement, including, insofar as applicable, the
Company's option to repurchase under Section 3(a). Any sale or transfer of the
Company's Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are
satisfied.

          (f)  Termination of Rights. The right of first refusal granted the
               ---------------------
Company by Section 3(b) above and the option to repurchase the Shares in the
event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by Section 3(c) above shall
terminate upon the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general
public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"). Upon termination of the right of first refusal
              --------------
described in Section 3(b) and the expiration or exercise of the Company's
repurchase option described in Section 3(a) above, a new certificate or
certificates representing the Shares not repurchased shall be issued, on
request, without the legend referred to in Section 6(a)(ii) herein and delivered
to Purchaser.

     4.   Escrow of Unvested Shares. For purposes of facilitating the
          -------------------------
enforcement of the provisions of Section 3 above, Purchaser agrees, immediately
upon receipt of the certificate(s) for the Shares subject to the Company's
Repurchase Option described in Section 3(a), to deliver such certificate(s),
together with an Assignment Separate from Certificate in the form attached to
this Agreement as Attachment A executed by Purchaser and by Purchaser's spouse
                  ------------
(if required for transfer), in blank, to the Secretary of the Company, or the
Secretary's designee, to hold such

                                      A-4
<PAGE>

certificate(s) and Assignment Separate from Certificate in escrow and to take
all such actions and to effectuate all such transfers and/or releases as are in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that
the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary's designee, is so appointed as
the escrow holder with the foregoing authorities as a material inducement to
make this Agreement and that said appointment is coupled with an interest and is
accordingly irrevocable. Purchaser agrees that said escrow holder shall not be
liable to any party hereof (or to any other party). The escrow holder may rely
upon any letter, notice or other document executed by any signature purported to
be genuine and may resign at any time. Purchaser agrees that if the Secretary of
the Company, or the Secretary's designee, resigns as escrow holder for any or no
reason, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have the power to appoint a
successor to serve as escrow holder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

     5.   Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the
          ---------------------------------------
purchase of the Shares, Purchaser represents to the Company the following:

          (a)  Purchaser is aware of the Company's business affairs and
financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to
reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the securities.
Purchaser is purchasing these securities for investment for his or her own
account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
"distribution" thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.

          (b)  Purchaser understands that the securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom,
which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of
Purchaser's investment intent as expressed herein.

          (c)  Purchaser understands that the Shares are "restricted securities"
under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to
these laws, Purchaser must hold the Shares indefinitely unless they are
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state
authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification
requirements is available. Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no
obligation to register or qualify the Shares for resale. Purchaser further
acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is
available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not
limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Shares, and
requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser's
control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to
satisfy.

          (d)  Purchaser understands that Purchaser may suffer adverse tax
consequences as a result of Purchaser's purchase or disposition of the Shares.
Purchaser represents that Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants Purchaser
deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and
that Purchaser is not relying on the Company for any tax advice.

     6.   Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.
          --------------------------------------------

          (a)  Legends. The certificate or certificates representing the Shares
               -------
shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by applicable
state and federal corporate and securities laws):

               (i)   THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT
                     BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE
                     BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN
                     CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH
                     SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE
                     REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF
                     COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH
                     REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
                     1933.

               (ii)  THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO
                     CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
                     OPTIONS HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH
                     IN THE EXERCISE NOTICE BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL
                     HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT
                     THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER. SUCH TRANSFER
                     RESTRICTIONS AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ARE BINDING ON
                     TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.

          (b)  Stop-Transfer Notices.  Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure
               ---------------------
compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue
appropriate "stop transfer" instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and
that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate
notations to the same effect in its own records.

          (c)  Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to
               -------------------
transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in
violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner
of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser
or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

     7.   No Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any
          --------------------
manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a parent or subsidiary
of the Company, to terminate Purchaser's employment, for any reason, with or
without cause.

                                      A-6
<PAGE>

     8.   Section 83(b) Election. Purchaser understands that Section 83(a) of
          ----------------------
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), taxes as ordinary
                                                    ----
income for a nonstatutory stock option and as alternative minimum taxable income
for an incentive stock option the difference between the amount paid for the
Shares and the fair market value of the Shares as of the date any restrictions
on the Shares lapse. In this context, "restriction" means the right of the
                                       -----------
Company to buy back the Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Option set forth in
Section 3(a) of this Agreement. Purchaser understands that Purchaser may elect
to be taxed at the time the Shares are purchased, rather than when and as the
Repurchase Option expires, by filing an election under Section 83(b) (an "83(b)
                                                                          -----
Election") of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the
--------
date of purchase. Even if the fair market value of the Shares at the time of the
execution of this Agreement equals the amount paid for the Shares, the election
must be made to avoid income and alternative minimum tax treatment under Section
83(a) in the future. Purchaser understands that failure to file such an election
in a timely manner may result in adverse tax consequences for Purchaser.
Purchaser further understands that an additional copy of such election form
should be filed with his or her federal income tax return for the calendar year
in which the date of this Agreement falls. Purchaser acknowledges that the
foregoing is only a summary of the effect of United States federal income
taxation with respect to purchase of the Shares hereunder, and does not purport
to be complete. Purchaser further acknowledges that the Company has directed
Purchaser to seek independent advice regarding the applicable provisions of the
Code, the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which
Purchaser may reside, and the tax consequences of Purchaser's death.

Purchaser agrees that he or she will execute and deliver to the Company with
this executed Agreement a copy of the Acknowledgment and Statement of Decision
Regarding Section 83(b) Election (the "Acknowledgment") attached hereto as
                                       --------------
Attachment B. Purchaser further agrees that he or she will execute and submit
------------
with the Acknowledgment a copy of the 83(b) Election attached hereto as
Attachment C if Purchaser has indicated in the Acknowledgment his or her
------------
decision to make such an election.

     9.   Market Stand-off Agreement. In connection with the initial public
          --------------------------
offering of the Company's securities and upon request of the Company or the
underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company's securities,
Purchaser agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for
the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Shares (other than those included
in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such
underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180
days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the
Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the
foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public
offering.

            EXERCISE NOTICE AND RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
            -------------------------------------------------------

     This Agreement ("Agreement") is made as of ______________, by and between
                      ---------
Beatnik, Inc., a California corporation (the "Company"), and ((Optionee))
                                              -------
("Purchaser").  To the extent any capitalized terms used in this Agreement are
  ---------
not defined, they shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the 1997 Stock
Plan.

     1.   Exercise of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
          ------------------
Purchaser hereby elects to exercise his or her option to purchase __________
shares of the Common Stock (the "Shares") of the Company under and pursuant to
                                 ------
the Company's 1997 Stock Plan (the "Plan") and the Stock Option Agreement dated
                                    ----
______________, (the "Option Agreement").  The purchase price for the Shares
                      ----------------
shall be $((ExercisePrice)) per Share for a total purchase price of
$_______________.  The term "Shares" refers to the purchased Shares and all
                             ------
securities received in replacement of the Shares or as stock dividends or
splits, all securities received in replacement of the Shares in a
recapitalization, merger, reorganization, exchange or the like, and all new,
substituted or additional securities or other properties to which Purchaser is
entitled by reason of Purchaser's ownership of the Shares.

     2.   Time and Place of Exercise. The purchase and sale of the Shares under
          --------------------------
this Agreement shall occur at the principal office of the Company simultaneously
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2(b) of the Option Agreement. On such date, the Company
will deliver to Purchaser a certificate representing the Shares to be purchased
by Purchaser (which shall be issued in Purchaser's name) against payment of the
purchase price therefor by Purchaser by (a) check made payable to the Company,
(b) cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to Purchaser, (c) delivery of
shares of the Common Stock of the Company in accordance with Section 3 of the
Option Agreement, (d) delivery of a promissory note in the form attached as
Exhibit C to the Option Agreement (or in any form acceptable to the Company), or
---------
(e) by a combination of the foregoing. If Purchaser delivers a promissory note
as partial or full payment of the purchase price, Purchaser will also deliver a
Pledge and Security Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit D to the Option
                                                      ---------
Agreement (or in any form acceptable to the Company).

     3.   Limitations on Transfer. In addition to any other limitation on
          -----------------------
transfer created by applicable securities laws, Purchaser shall not assign,
encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares except in compliance with the
provisions below and applicable securities laws.

     (a)  Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Purchaser or any
transferee of Purchaser (either being sometimes referred to herein as the
"Holder") may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift
 ------
or operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of
first refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in
this Section 3(a) (the "Right of First Refusal").
                        ----------------------

                                      B-1
<PAGE>

               (i)   Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall
                     ---------------------------
deliver to the Company a written notice (the "Notice") stating: (i) the Holder's
                                              ------
bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of
each proposed purchaser or other transferee ("Proposed Transferee"); (iii)
                                              -------------------
the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the
terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer. The Holder shall offer
the Shares at the same price (the "Offered Price") and upon the same terms (or
                                   -------------
terms as similar as reasonably possible) to the Company or its assignee(s).

               (ii)  Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within
                     ----------------------------------
thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s)
may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less
than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the
Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with
subsection (iii) below.

               (iii) Purchase Price. The purchase price ("Purchase Price") for
                     --------------                       --------------
the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section 3(a)
shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other
than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.

               (iv)  Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at
                     -------
the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder
to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee),
or by any combination thereof within 30 days after receipt of the Notice or in
the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.

               (v)   Holder's Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed
                     --------------------------
in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased
by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3(a), then the
Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at
the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other
transfer is consummated within 60 days after the date of the Notice and provided
further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any
applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that
the provisions of this Section 3 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the
hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not
transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder
proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the
Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company
and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal before
any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred.

               (vi)  Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the
                     --------------------------------------
contrary contained in this Section 3(a) notwithstanding, the transfer of any or
all of the Shares during Purchaser's lifetime or on Purchaser's death by will or
intestacy to Purchaser's Immediate Family or a trust for the benefit of
Purchaser's Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section
3(a). "Immediate Family" as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or
       ----------------
antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In such case, the transferee or
other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the
provisions of this Section,

                                      B-2
<PAGE>

and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with
the terms of this Section 3.

          (b)  Involuntary Transfer.
               --------------------

               (i)  Company's Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In
                    -----------------------------------------------------
the event, at any time after the date of this Agreement, of any transfer by
operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce, but
excluding a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 3(a)(vi) above)
of all or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company
shall have an option to purchase all of the Shares transferred at the greater of
the purchase price paid by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the fair
market value of the Shares on the date of transfer. Upon such a transfer, the
person acquiring the Shares shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company
of such transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the
Company for a period of thirty (30) days following receipt by the Company of
written notice by the person acquiring the Shares.

               (ii) Price for Involuntary Transfer. With respect to any stock to
                    ------------------------------
be transferred pursuant to Section 3(b)(i), the price per Share shall be a price
set by the Board of Directors of the Company that will reflect the current value
of the stock in terms of present earnings and future prospects of the Company.
The Company shall notify Purchaser or his or her executor of the price so
determined within thirty (30) days after receipt by it of written notice of the
transfer or proposed transfer of Shares. However, if the Purchaser does not
agree with the valuation as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company,
the Purchaser shall be entitled to have the valuation determined by an
independent appraiser to be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the
Purchaser and whose fees shall be borne equally by the Company and the
Purchaser.

          (c)  Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the
               ----------
Shares may be assigned in whole or in part to any shareholder or shareholders of
the Company or other persons or organizations; provided, however, that an
                                               --------  -------
assignee, other than a corporation that is the parent or a 100% owned subsidiary
of the Company, must pay the Company, upon assignment of such right, cash equal
to the difference between the original purchase price and fair market value, if
the original purchase price is less than the fair market value of the Shares
subject to the assignment.

          (d)  Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or
               -----------------------------------
any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to
the provisions of this Agreement. Any sale or transfer of the Company's Shares
shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are satisfied.

          (e)  Termination of Rights. The right of first refusal granted the
               ---------------------
Company by Section 3(a) above and the option to repurchase the Shares in the
event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by Section 3(b) above shall
terminate upon the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general
public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"). Upon termination of the right of first refusal
              --------------
described in Section 3(a) above, a new certificate or certificates representing
the Shares not repurchased shall

                                      B-3
<PAGE>

be issued, on request, without the legend referred to in Section 6(a)(ii) herein
and delivered to Purchaser.

     4.   Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the
          ---------------------------------------
purchase of the Shares, Purchaser represents to the Company the following:

          (a)  Purchaser is aware of the Company's business affairs and
financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to
reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the securities.
Purchaser is purchasing these securities for investment for his or her own
account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
"distribution" thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.

          (b)  Purchaser understands that the securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom,
which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of
Purchaser's investment intent as expressed herein.

          (c)  Purchaser understands that the Shares are "restricted securities"
under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to
these laws, Purchaser must hold the Shares indefinitely unless they are
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state
authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification
requirements is available. Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no
obligation to register or qualify the Shares for resale. Purchaser further
acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is
available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not
limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Shares, and
requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser's
control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to
satisfy.

          (d)  Purchaser understands that Purchaser may suffer adverse tax
consequences as a result of Purchaser's purchase or disposition of the Shares.
Purchaser represents that Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants Purchaser
deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and
that Purchaser is not relying on the Company for any tax advice.

     5.   Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.
          --------------------------------------------

          (a)  Legends. The certificate or certificates representing the Shares
               -------
shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by applicable
state and federal corporate and securities laws):

                    REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN
                    ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN
                    CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH
                    SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE
                    REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION

                                      B-4
<PAGE>

                    OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH
                    REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
                    1933.

               (ii) THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO
                    CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS
                    ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH IN THE EXERCISE NOTICE BETWEEN THE
                    ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF
                    WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER.
                    SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ARE
                    BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.

          (b)  Stop-Transfer Notices.  Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure
               ---------------------
compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue
appropriate "stop transfer" instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and
that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate
notations to the same effect in its own records.

          (c)  Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to
               -------------------
transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in
violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner
of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser
or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

     6.   No Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any
          --------------------
manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a parent or subsidiary
of the Company, to terminate Purchaser's employment, for any reason, with or
without cause.

     7.   Market Stand-off Agreement. In connection with the initial public
          --------------------------
offering of the Company's securities and upon request of the Company or the
underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company's securities,
Purchaser agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for
the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Shares (other than those included
in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such
underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180
days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the
Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the
foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public
offering.

     8.   Miscellaneous.
          -------------

          (a)  Governing Law. This Agreement and all acts and transactions
               -------------

          (b)  Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This Agreement sets
               ---------------------------------------

subject matter herein and merges all prior discussions between them. No
modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights
under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the parties
to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this
Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights of such party.

          (c)  Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are
               ------------
held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate
such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a
mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such
provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of the
Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii)
the balance of the Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

          (d)  Construction. This Agreement is the result of negotiations
               ------------

                         PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
                         -----------------------------

     This Pledge and Security Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into this
                                              ---------

                                   --------

     In connection with Purchaser's exercise of an option to purchase certain
shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Shares") pursuant to an Option
                                           ------
Agreement dated __________ between Purchaser and the Company, Purchaser is
delivering a promissory note of even date herewith (the "Note") in full or
                                                         ----
partial payment of the exercise price for the Shares.  The company requires that
the Note be secured by a pledge of the Shares or the terms set forth below.

                                   AGREEMENT
                                   ---------

     In consideration of the Company's acceptance of the Note as full or partial
payment of the exercise price of the Shares, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

     1.   The Note shall become payable in full upon the voluntary or
involuntary termination or cessation of employment of Purchaser with the
Company, for any reason, with or without cause (including death or disability).

     2.   Purchaser shall deliver to the Secretary of the Company, or his or her
designee (hereinafter referred to as the "Pledge Holder"), all certificates
                                          -------------
representing the Shares, together with an Assignment Separate from Certificate
in the form attached to this Agreement as Attachment A executed by Purchaser and
                                          ------------
by Purchaser's spouse (if required for transfer), in blank, for use in
transferring all or a portion of the Shares to the Company if, as and when
required pursuant to this Agreement.  In addition, if Purchaser is married,
Purchaser's spouse shall execute the signature page attached to this Agreement.

     3.   As security for the payment of the Note and any renewal, extension or
modification of the Note, Purchaser hereby grants to the Company a security
interest in and pledges with and delivers to the Company Purchaser's Shares
(sometimes referred to herein as the "Collateral").
                                      ----------

     4.   In the event that Purchaser prepays all or a portion of the Note, in
accordance with the provisions thereof, Purchaser intends, unless written notice
to the contrary is delivered to the Pledge Holder, that the Shares represented
by the portion of the Note so repaid, including annual interest thereon, shall
continue to be so held by the Pledge Holder, to serve as independent collateral
for the outstanding portion of the Note for the purpose of commencing the
holding period set forth in Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").

                                      D-1
<PAGE>

     5.   In the event of any foreclosure of the security interest created by
this Agreement, the Company may sell the Shares at a private sale or may
repurchase the Shares itself. The parties agree that, prior to the establishment
of a public market for the Shares of the Company, the securities laws affecting
sale of the Shares make a public sale of the Shares commercially unreasonable.
The parties further agree that the repurchasing of such Shares by the Company,
or by any person to whom the Company may have assigned its rights under this
Agreement, is commercially reasonable if made at a price determined by the Board
of Directors in its discretion, fairly exercised, representing what would be the
fair market value of the Shares reduced by any limitation on transferability,
whether due to the size of the block of shares or the restrictions of applicable
securities laws.

     6.   In the event of default in payment when due of any indebtedness under
the Note, the Company may elect then, or at any time thereafter, to exercise all
rights available to a secured party under the California Commercial Code
including the right to sell the Collateral at a private or public sale or
repurchase the Shares as provided above. The proceeds of any sale shall be
applied in the following order:

          (a)  To the extent necessary, proceeds shall be used to pay all
reasonable expenses of the Company in enforcing this Agreement and the Note,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and legal expenses
incurred by the Company.

          (b)  To the extent necessary, proceeds shall be used to satisfy any
remaining indebtedness under Purchaser's Note.

          (c)  Any remaining proceeds shall be delivered to Purchaser.

     7.   Upon full payment by Purchaser of all amounts due under the Note,
Pledge Holder shall deliver to Purchaser all Shares in Pledge Holder's
possession belonging to Purchaser, and Pledge Holder shall thereupon be
discharged of all further obligations under this Agreement; provided, however,
                                                            --------  -------
that Pledge Holder shall nevertheless retain the Shares as escrow agent if at
the time of full payment by Purchaser said Shares are still subject to a
Repurchase Option in favor of the Company.

     Termination Period:                   Option may be exercised for 90 days
                                           after termination of employment or
                                           consulting relationship except as set

                                           later than the Expiration Date).

                                1997 STOCK PLAN

                            STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

     1.   Grant of Option. Beatnik, Inc., a California corporation (the
          ---------------
"Company"), hereby grants to Optionee named in the Notice of Stock Option Grant
 ------
(the "Optionee"), an option (the "Option") to purchase a total number of shares
      --------                    ------
of Common Stock (the "Shares") set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, at
                      ------
the exercise price per share set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the
"Exercise Price") subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the
 --------------
Beatnik, Inc. 1997 Stock Plan (the "Plan") adopted by the Company, which is
                                    ----
incorporated herein by reference.  Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms
defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Option.

          If designated an Incentive Stock Option, this Option is intended to
qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code.

     2.   Exercise of Option.  This Option shall be exercisable during its Term
          ------------------
in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice of Stock Option
Grant and with the provisions of Section 9 of the Plan as follows:

          (a)  Right to Exercise.
               -----------------

               (i)   This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share.

               (ii)  In the event of Optionee's death, disability or other
termination of employment, the exercisability of the Option is governed by
Sections 6, 7 and 8 below, subject to the limitation contained in Section
2(a)(i).

               (iii) In no event may this Option be exercised after the date of
expiration of the Term of this Option as set forth in the Notice of Stock Option
Grant.

          (b)  Method of Exercise.  This Option shall be exercisable by written
               ------------------
notice (in the form attached as Exhibit A) which shall state the election to
                                ---------
exercise the Option, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is
being exercised, and such other representations and agreements as to the
holder's investment intent with respect to such shares of Common Stock as may be
required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.  Such written
notice shall be signed by Optionee and shall be delivered in person or by
certified mail to the Secretary of the Company.  The written notice shall be
accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price.  This Option shall be deemed to be
exercised upon receipt by the Company of such written notice accompanied by the
Exercise Price.

          No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless
such issuance and such exercise shall comply with all relevant provisions of
applicable law and the

<PAGE>

requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed.
Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered
transferred to Optionee on the date on which the Option is exercised with
respect to such Shares.

     3.   Optionee's Representations.  In the event the Shares purchasable
          --------------------------
pursuant to the exercise of this Option have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), at the time this
                                         --------------
Option is exercised, Optionee shall, if required by the Company, concurrently
with the exercise of all or any portion of this Option, deliver to the Company
Optionee's Investment Representation Statement in the form attached hereto as

Exhibit B, and shall read the applicable rules of the Commissioner of
---------
Corporations attached to such Investment Representation Statement.

     4.   Method of Payment.  Payment of the Exercise Price shall be by any of
          -----------------
the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Optionee:

          (a)  cash;

          (b)  check;

          (c)  surrender of other shares of Common Stock of the Company which
(i) in the case of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a Company option,
have been owned by Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of
surrender, and (ii) have a fair market value on the date of surrender equal to
the Exercise Price of the Shares as to which the Option is being exercised;

          (d)  if there is a public market for the Shares and they are
registered under the Securities Act, delivery of a properly executed exercise
notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to
the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds required to pay the exercise
price; or

          (e)  such other consideration, including promissory notes, as may be
determined by the Board in its absolute discretion to the extent permitted under
Sections 408 and 409 of the California General Corporation Law.

     5.   Restrictions on Exercise.  This Option may not be exercised until such
          ------------------------
time as the Plan has been approved by the shareholders of the Company, or if the
issuance of such Shares upon such exercise or the method of payment of
consideration for such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable
federal or state securities or other law or regulation, including any rule under
Part 207 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations as promulgated by the
Federal Reserve Board.  As a condition to the exercise of this Option, the
Company may require Optionee to make any representation and warranty to the
Company as may be required by any applicable law or regulation.

     6.   Termination of Relationship.  In the event of termination of
          ---------------------------
Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant, Optionee may, to the
extent otherwise so entitled at the date of such termination (the "Termination
                                                                   -----------
Date"), exercise this Option during the
----

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

period ending on the Expiration Date set out in the Notice of Option Grant. To
the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise this Option at such
Termination Date, or if Optionee does not exercise this Option within the time
specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

     7.   Disability of Optionee.
          ----------------------

          (a)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6 above, in the event
of termination of Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant as a result of
Optionee's total and permanent disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the
Code), Optionee may, but only within twelve (12) months from the Termination
Date (but in no event later than the date of expiration of the Term of this
Option as set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant and in Section 10
below), exercise this Option to the extent Optionee was entitled to exercise it
as of such Termination Date. To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to
exercise the Option as of the Termination Date, or if Optionee does not exercise
such Option (which he was entitled to exercise) within the time specified
herein, the Option shall terminate.

          (b)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6 above, in the event
of termination of Optionee's consulting relationship or Continuous Status as an
Employee as a result of any disability not constituting a total and permanent
disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may, but only
within six (6) months from the Termination Date (but in no event later than the
date of expiration of the Term of this Option as set forth in the Notice of
Stock Option Grant and in Section 10 below), exercise this Option to the extent
Optionee was entitled to exercise it as of such Termination Date; provided,
however, that if this is an Incentive Stock Option and Optionee fails to
exercise this Incentive Stock Opinion within three (3) months from the
Termination Date, this Option will cease to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option
(as defined in Section 422 of the Code) and Optionee will be treated for federal
income tax purposes as having received ordinary income at the time of such
exercise in an amount generally measured by the difference between the exercise
price for the Shares and the fair market value of the Shares on the date of
exercise. To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option at
the Termination Date, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent
so entitled within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

     8.   Death of Optionee.  In the event of the death of Optionee (a) during
          -----------------
the Term of this Option and while an Employee or Consultant of the Company and
having been in Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant since the date of
grant of the Option, or (b) within thirty (30) days after Optionee's Termination
Date, the Option may be exercised at any time within six (6) months following
the date of death (but in no event later than the date of expiration of the Term
of this Option as set forth in the Notice of  Stock Option Grant and in Section
10 below), by Optionee's estate or by a person who acquired the right to
exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent of the
right to exercise that had accrued at the Termination Date.

     9.   Non-Transferability of Option.  This Option may not be transferred in
          -----------------------------
any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and
may be exercised

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

during the lifetime of Optionee only by him or her. The terms of this Option
shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and
assigns of Optionee.

     10.  Term of Option.  This Option may be exercised only within the Term set
          --------------
out in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, and may be exercised during such Term
only in accordance with the Plan and the terms of this Option.  The limitations
set out in Section 7 of the Plan regarding Options designated as Incentive Stock
Options and Options granted to more than ten percent (10%) shareholders shall
apply to this Option.

     11.  Tax Consequences.  Set forth below is a brief summary as of the date
          ----------------
of this Option of certain of the federal and California tax consequences of
exercise of this Option and disposition of the Shares under the laws in effect
as of the Date of Grant.  THIS SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX
LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.  OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT A TAX
ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES.

          (a)  Exercise of Incentive Stock Option.  If this Option qualifies as
               ----------------------------------
an Incentive Stock Option, there will be no regular federal or California income
tax liability upon the exercise of the Option, although the excess, if any, of
the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise
Price will be treated as an adjustment to the alternative minimum tax for
federal tax purposes and may subject Optionee to the alternative minimum tax in
the year of exercise.

          (b)  Exercise of Nonstatutory Stock Option.  If this Option does not
               -------------------------------------
qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, there may be a regular federal income tax
liability and a California income tax liability upon the exercise of the Option.
The Optionee will be treated as having received compensation income (taxable at
ordinary income tax rates) equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value
of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price.  If Optionee is
an employee, the Company will be required to withhold from Optionee's
compensation or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable taxing
authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this compensation income at the
time of exercise.

          (c)  Disposition of Shares.  In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock
               ---------------------
Option, if the Shares are held for at least one year, any gain realized on
disposition of the Shares will be treated as long-term capital gain for federal
and California income tax purposes.  In the case of an Incentive Stock Option,
if the Shares transferred pursuant to the Option are held for at least one year
after exercise and are disposed of at least two years after the Date of Grant,
any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will also be treated as long-term
capital gain for federal and California income tax purposes.  If the Shares
purchased under an Incentive Stock Option are disposed of within such one-year
period or within two years after the Date of Grant, any gain realized on such
disposition will be treated as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income
rates) to the extent of the difference between the Exercise Price and the lesser
of (i) the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise, or (ii) the
sale price of the Shares.

          (d)  Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of Incentive Stock Option
               -------------------------------------------------------------
Shares.  If the Option granted to Optionee herein is an Incentive Stock Option,
------
and if Optionee sells or

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to such Incentive
Stock Option on or before the later of (i) the date two years after the Date of
Grant, or (ii) the date one year after the date of exercise, Optionee shall
immediately notify the Company in writing of such disposition. Optionee
acknowledges and agrees that he or she may be subject to income tax withholding
by the Company on the compensation income recognized by Optionee from the early
disposition by payment in cash or out of the current earnings paid to Optionee.

     12.  Withholding Tax Obligations.  Optionee understands that, upon
          ---------------------------
exercising a Nonstatutory Stock Option, he or she will recognize income for tax
purposes in an amount equal to the excess of the then fair market value of the
Shares over the Exercise Price.  However, the timing of this income recognition
may be deferred for up to six months if Optionee is subject to Section 16 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").  If Optionee
                                                  ------------
is an employee, the Company will be required to withhold from Optionee's
compensation, or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable taxing
authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this compensation income.
Additionally, Optionee may at some point be required to satisfy tax withholding
obligations with respect to the disqualifying disposition of an Incentive Stock
Option.  The Optionee shall satisfy his or her tax withholding obligation
arising upon the exercise of this Option by one or some combination of the
following methods:  (a) by cash payment, (b) out of Optionee's current
compensation, (c) if permitted by the Administrator, in its discretion, by
surrendering to the Company Shares which (i) in the case of Shares previously
acquired from the Company, have been owned by Optionee for more than six months
on the date of surrender, and (ii) have a fair market value on the date of
surrender equal to or greater than Optionee's marginal tax rate times the
ordinary income recognized, or (d) by electing to have the Company withhold from
the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option that number of Shares having
a fair market value equal to the amount required to be withheld.  For this
purpose, the fair market value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined
on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined (the "Tax
                                                                            ---
Date").
----

     If Optionee is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act (an "Insider"),
                                                                   -------
any surrender of previously owned Shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations
arising upon exercise of this Option must comply with the applicable provisions
of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act ("Rule 16b-3").
                                                   ----------

     All elections by an Optionee to have Shares withheld to satisfy tax
withholding obligations shall be made in writing in a form acceptable to the
Administrator and shall be subject to the following restrictions:

          (a)  the election must be made on or prior to the applicable Tax Date;

          (b)  once made, the election shall be irrevocable as to the particular
Shares of the Option as to which the election is made; and

          (c)  all elections shall be subject to the consent or disapproval of
the Administrator.

                                      -5-

     13.  Market Standoff Agreement.  In connection with the initial public
          -------------------------
offering of the Company's securities and upon request of the Company or the
underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company's securities,
Optionee hereby agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any
option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Shares (other than those
included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company
or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed
180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by
the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting
the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public
offering.

     This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one
document.

                                        Title:________________________________

     OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO THE
OPTION HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING EMPLOYMENT OR CONSULTANCY AT THE WILL
OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS OPTION OR
ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER).  OPTIONEE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT
NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT, NOR IN THE COMPANY'S STOCK OPTION PLAN WHICH IS
INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE, SHALL CONFER UPON OPTIONEE ANY RIGHT WITH
RESPECT TO CONTINUATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR CONSULTANCY BY THE COMPANY, NOR SHALL
IT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH OPTIONEE'S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY'S RIGHT TO
TERMINATE OPTIONEE'S EMPLOYMENT OR CONSULTANCY AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT
CAUSE.

     Optionee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that he
or she is familiar with the terms and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts
this Option subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof.  Optionee has
reviewed the Plan and this Option in their entirety, has had an opportunity to
obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Option and fully
understands all provisions of the Option.  Optionee hereby agrees to accept as
binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the
Administrator upon any questions arising under the Plan or this Option.

                                ---------------

Beatnik, Inc.
217 South B Street
San Mateo, CA 94401
Attention:  President

     1.   Exercise of Option.  Effective as of today, _______________, 199__,
          ------------------
the undersigned ("Optionee") hereby elects to exercise Optionee's option to
                  --------
purchase _____________ shares of the Common Stock (the "Shares") of Beatnik,
                                                        ------
Inc. (the "Company") under and pursuant to the Company's 1997 Stock Plan (the
           -------
"Plan") and the Stock Option Agreement dated ________ __, 199__ (the "Option
 ----                                                                 ------
Agreement").
---------

     2.   Representations of Optionee.  Optionee acknowledges that Optionee has
          ---------------------------
received, read and understood the Plan, the Option Agreement and the Investment
Representation Statement attached as Exhibit B to the Option Agreement, and
                                     ---------
agrees to abide by and be bound by their terms and conditions.  If applicable,
Optionee has executed and delivered the Investment Representation Statement to
the Company.  Optionee further represents that Optionee is purchasing the Shares
for Optionee's own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in
connection with, a "distribution" of any of such Shares for purposes of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
                                         --------------

     3.   Compliance with Securities Laws.  Optionee understands and
          -------------------------------
acknowledges that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act
and, notwithstanding any other provision of the Option Agreement to the
contrary, the exercise of any rights to purchase any Shares is expressly
conditioned upon compliance with the Securities Act, all applicable state
securities laws and all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or over
the counter market on which the Company's Common Stock may be listed or traded
at the time of exercise and transfer.  Optionee agrees to cooperate with the
Company to ensure compliance with such laws.

     4.   Federal Restrictions on Transfer.  Optionee understands that the
          --------------------------------
Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and therefore cannot be
resold and must be held indefinitely unless they are registered under the
Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available and
that the certificate(s) representing the Shares may bear a legend to that
effect.  Optionee understands that the Company is under no obligation to
register the Shares and that an exemption may not be available or may not permit
Optionee to transfer Shares in the amounts or at the times proposed by Optionee.
Specifically, Optionee has been advised that Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act, which permits certain resales of unregistered
<PAGE>

securities, is not presently available with respect to the Shares and, in any
event requires that the Shares be fully paid for by means other than a
promissory note secured by the Shares themselves and then be held for at least
two years (and in some cases three years) before they may be resold under Rule
144.

     5.   Rights as Shareholder.  Until the stock certificate evidencing such
          ---------------------
Shares is issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the
Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote
or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with
respect to the optioned Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option.  The
Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly
after the Option is exercised.  No adjustment will be made for a dividend or
other right for which the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate
is issued, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan.

          Optionee shall enjoy rights as a shareholder until such time as
Optionee disposes of the Shares or the Company and/or its assignee(s) exercises
the Right of First Refusal pursuant to Section 6 below.  Upon such exercise,
Optionee shall have no further rights as a holder of the Shares so purchased
except the right to receive payment for the Shares so purchased in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement, and Optionee shall forthwith cause the
certificate(s) evidencing the Shares so purchased to be surrendered to the
Company for transfer or cancellation.

     6.   Limitations on Transfer.  In addition to any other limitation on
          -----------------------
transfer created by applicable securities laws, Optionee or any transferee
(either being sometimes referred to herein as the "Holder") shall not assign,
                                                   ------
encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares except in compliance with the
provisions below and applicable securities laws.

          (a)   Company's Right of First Refusal.  Before any Shares held by the
                --------------------------------
Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or
operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first
refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Section 6(a) (the "Right of First Refusal").
                   ----------------------

                (i) Notice of Proposed Transfer.  The Holder of the Shares shall
                    ---------------------------
deliver to the Company a written notice (the "Notice") stating:  (i) the
                                              ------
Holder's bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the
name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee ("Proposed Transferee");
                                                      -------------------
(iii) the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and
(iv) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer.  The Holder
shall offer the Shares at the same price (the "Offered Price") and upon the same
                                               -------------
terms (or terms as similar as reasonably possible) to the Company or its
assignee(s).

                (ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within
                     ----------------------------------

than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the
Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

                (iii) Purchase Price.  The purchase price ("Purchase Price") for
                      --------------                        --------------
the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section shall
be the Offered Price.  If the Offered Price includes consideration other than
cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.

                (iv)  Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at
                      -------
the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder
to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee),
or by any combination thereof within 30 days after receipt of the Notice or in
the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.

                (v)   Holder's Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed
                      --------------------------
in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased
by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section, then the
Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at
the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other
transfer is consummated within 60 days after the date of the Notice and provided
further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any
applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that
the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to the Shares in the
hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not
transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder
proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the
Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company
and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal before
any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred.

                (vi)  Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the
                      --------------------------------------
contrary contained in this Section notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all
of the Shares during Optionee's lifetime or on Optionee's death by will or
intestacy to Optionee's immediate family or a trust for the benefit of
Optionee's immediate family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section.
"Immediate Family" as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or
 ----------------
antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In such case, the transferee or
other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the
provisions of this Section, and there shall be no further transfer of such
Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section.

           (b)  Involuntary Transfer.
                --------------------

                (i)   Company's Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In
                      -----------------------------------------------------
the event, at any time after the date of this Agreement, of any transfer by
operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce) or
all or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall
have an option to purchase all of the Shares transferred at the greater of the
purchase price paid by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the fair market
value of the Shares on the date of transfer. Upon such a transfer, the person
acquiring the Shares shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such
transfer. The right to

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of thirty
(30) days following receipt by the Company of written notice by the person
acquiring the Shares.

                (ii) Price for Involuntary Transfer. With respect to any stock
                     ------------------------------
to be transferred pursuant to Section 6(b)(i), the price per Share shall be a
price set by the Board of Directors of the Company that will reflect the current
value of the stock in terms of present earnings and future prospects of the
Company. The Company shall notify Purchaser or his or her executor of the price
so determined within thirty (30) days after receipt by it of written notice of
the transfer or proposed transfer of Shares. However, if the Purchaser does not
agree with the valuation as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company,
the Purchaser shall be entitled to have the valuation determined by an
independent appraiser to be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the
Purchaser and whose fees shall be borne equally by the Company and the
Purchaser.

          (c)   Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the
                ----------
Shares may be assigned in whole or in part to any stockholder or stockholders of
the Company or other persons or organizations; provided, however, that an
assignee, other than a corporation that is the parent or a 100% owned subsidiary
of the Company, must pay the Company, upon assignment of such right, cash equal
to the difference between the original purchase price and fair market value, if
the original purchase price is less than the fair market value of the Shares
subject to the assignment.

          (d)   Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of
                -----------------------------------
Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest
subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Any sale or transfer of the
Company's Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are met.

          (e)   Termination of Rights.  The right of first refusal granted the
                ---------------------
Company by Section 6(a) above and the option to repurchase the Shares in the
event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by Section 6(b) above shall
terminate upon the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general
public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act.  Upon
termination of the right of first refusal described in Section 6(a), a new
certificate or certificates representing the Shares not repurchased shall be
issued, on request, without the legend referred to in Section 8(a)(ii) herein
and delivered to Purchaser.

     7.   Tax Consultation.  Optionee understands that Optionee may suffer
          ----------------
adverse tax consequences as a result of Optionee's purchase or disposition of
the Shares.  Optionee represents that Optionee has consulted with any tax
consultants Optionee deems advisable in connection with the purchase or
disposition of the Shares and that Optionee is not relying on the Company for
any tax advice.

     8.   Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.
          --------------------------------------------

          (a)   Legends.  Optionee understands and agrees that the Company shall
                -------
cause the legends set forth below or legends substantially equivalent thereto,

OPTIONEE:              <<Optionee>>

COMPANY:               Beatnik, Inc.

SECURITY:              Common Stock

AMOUNT:                __________________ Shares

DATE:                  ___________________, 199__

In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, I, Optionee,
represent to the Company the following:

          (a)  I am aware of the Company's business affairs and financial
condition, and have acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach
an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities.  I am
purchasing these Securities for my own account for investment purposes only and
not with a view to, or for the resale in connection with, any "distribution"
                                                               ------------
thereof for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
                                                                     ----------
Act").
---

          (b)  I understand that the Securities have not been registered under
the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which
exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of my
investment intent as expressed herein.

          (c)  I further understand that the Securities must be held
indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or unless
an exemption from registration is otherwise available. Moreover, I understand
that the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities. In addition,
I understand that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted
with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless they are
registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel for
the Company.

          (d)  I am familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144, each
promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public
resale of "restricted securities" acquired, directly or indirectly, from the
issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions.  Rule 701 provides that if the issuer qualifies under Rule 701 at
the time of issuance of the Securities, such issuance will be exempt from
registration under the Securities Act.  In the event the Company later becomes
subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, ninety (90) days thereafter the securities exempt under
Rule 701 may be resold, subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions
specified by Rule 144, including among other things:  (1) the sale being made
through a broker in an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in transactions
directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities
Exchange
<PAGE>

Act of 1934); and, in the case of an affiliate, (2) the availability of certain
public information about the Company, and the amount of securities being sold
during any three month period not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule
144(e), if applicable. Notwithstanding this paragraph (d), I acknowledge and
agree to the restrictions set forth in paragraph (f) below.

          In the event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701 at the
time of issuance of the Securities, then the Securities may be resold in certain
limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which requires
among other things:  (1) the availability of certain public information about
the Company; (2) the resale occurring not less than two years after the party
has purchased, and made full payment for, within the meaning of Rule 144, the
securities to be sold; and, in the case of an affiliate, or of a non-affiliate
who has held the securities less than three years, (3) the sale being made
through a broker in an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in transactions
directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934), and (4) the amount of securities being sold during any
three month period not exceeding the specified limitations stated therein, if
applicable.  I UNDERSTAND THAT PAYMENT FOR THE SHARES WITH A PROMISSORY NOTE IS
NOT DEEMED TO BE FULL PAYMENT UNDER RULE 144 UNLESS THE NOTE IS SECURED BY
ASSETS OTHER THAN THE SHARES.

          (e)  I understand that at such time in the future that I might wish to
sell the Securities, there may be no public market upon which to make such a
sale, and that, even if such a public market then exists, the Company may not be
satisfying the current public information requirements of Rule 144, and that, in
such event, I will be precluded from selling the Securities under Rule 144 even
I have satisfied the two-year minimum holding period.

          (f)  I further understand that in the event all of the applicable
requirements of Rule 144 or Rule 701 are not satisfied, registration under the
Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration
exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 and
Rule 701 are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission
has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement
securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to
Rule 144 or Rule 701 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing
that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and
that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such
transactions do so at their own risk.

          (g)  I understand that the certificate evidencing the Securities may
be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities
without the consent of the applicable Commissioner of Corporations of
California. I have read the applicable Commissioner's Rules with respect to such
restriction, a copy of which is attached.

          (h)  California Corporate Securities Law.  THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES
               -----------------------------------

          (a)  Repurchase Option.
               -----------------

               (i)   In the event of the voluntary or involuntary termination of
Purchaser's employment or consulting relationship with the Company for any
reason (including death or disability), with or without cause, the Company shall
upon the date of such termination (the "Termination Date") have an irrevocable,
                                        ----------------
exclusive option (the "Repurchase Option") for a period of 60 days from such
                       -----------------
date to repurchase all or any portion of the Shares held by Purchaser as of the
Termination Date which have not yet been released from the Company's Repurchase
Option at the original purchase price per Share specified in Section 1 (adjusted
for any stock splits, stock dividends and the like).

               (ii)  The Repurchase Option shall be exercised by the Company by
written notice to Purchaser or Purchaser's executor and, at the Company's
option, (A) by delivery to Purchaser or Purchaser's executor with such notice of
a check in the amount of the purchase price for the Shares being purchased, or
(B) in the event Purchaser is indebted to the Company, by cancellation by the
Company of an amount of such indebtedness equal to the purchase price for the
Shares being repurchased, or (C) by a combination of (A) and (B) so that the
combined payment and cancellation of indebtedness equals such purchase price.
Upon delivery of such notice and payment of the purchase price in any of the
ways described above, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of
the Shares being repurchased and all rights and interest therein or related
thereto, and the Company shall have the right to transfer to its own name the
number of Shares being repurchased by the Company, without further action by
Purchaser.

               (iii) One hundred percent (100%) of the Shares shall initially be
subject to the Repurchase Option.  ____________ of the total number of Shares
shall be released from the Repurchase Option on the monthly anniversary of the
Vesting Commencement Date (as set forth on the signature page of this
Agreement), until all Shares are released from the Repurchase Option.
Fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.

          (b)  Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Purchaser or
               ----------------------
any transferee of Purchaser (either being sometimes referred to herein as the
Holder") may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or
------
operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first
refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Section 3(b) (the "Right of First Refusal").
                   ----------------------

               (i)   Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall
                     ---------------------------
deliver to the Company a written notice (the "Notice") stating:  (A) the
                                              ------
Holder's bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (B) the
name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee ("Proposed Transferee"); (C)
                                                      -------------------
the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (D) the
terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer.  The Holder shall offer
the Shares at the same price (the "Offered Price") and upon the same terms (or
                                   -------------
terms as similar as reasonably possible) to the Company or its assignee(s).

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

               (ii)  Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within
                     ----------------------------------
thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s)
may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less
than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the
Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with
subsection (iii) below.

               (iii) Purchase Price. The purchase price ("Purchase Price") for
                     --------------                        --------------
the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section 3(b)
shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other
than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.

               (iv)  Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at
                     -------
the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder
to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee),
or by any combination thereof within 30 days after receipt of the Notice or in
the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.

               (v)   Holder's Right to Transfer.  If all of the Shares proposed
                     --------------------------
in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased
by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3(b), then the
Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at
the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other
transfer is consummated within 60 days after the date of the Notice and provided
further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any
applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that
the provisions of this Section 3 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the
hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not
transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder
proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the
Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company
and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal before
any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred.

               (vi)  Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the
                     --------------------------------------
contrary contained in this Section 3(b) notwithstanding, the transfer of any or
all of the Shares during Purchaser's lifetime or on Purchaser's death by will or
intestacy to Purchaser's Immediate Family or a trust for the benefit of
Purchaser's Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section
3(b). "Immediate Family" as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or
       ----------------
antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister.  In such case, the transferee or
other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the
provisions of this Section, and there shall be no further transfer of such
Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.

          (c)  Involuntary Transfer.
               --------------------

               (i)   Company's Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In
                     -----------------------------------------------------
the event, at any time after the date of this Agreement, of any transfer by
operation of law or

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce, but excluding a transfer
to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 3(b)(vi) above) of all or a portion
of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall have an option to
purchase all of the Shares transferred at the greater of the purchase price paid
by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the fair market value of the Shares
on the date of transfer. Upon such a transfer, the person acquiring the Shares
shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such transfer. The right
to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of thirty
(30) days following receipt by the Company of written notice by the person
acquiring the Shares.

               (ii)  Price for Involuntary Transfer. With respect to any stock
                     ------------------------------
to be transferred pursuant to Section 3(c)(i), the price per Share shall be a
price set by the Board of Directors of the Company that will reflect the current
value of the stock in terms of present earnings and future prospects of the
Company. The Company shall notify Purchaser or his or her executor of the price
so determined within thirty (30) days after receipt by it of written notice of
the transfer or proposed transfer of Shares. However, if the Purchaser does not
agree with the valuation as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company,
the Purchaser shall be entitled to have the valuation determined by an
independent appraiser to be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the
Purchaser and whose fees shall be borne equally by the Company and the
Purchaser.

          (d)  Assignment.  The right of the Company to purchase any part of the
               ----------
Shares may be assigned in whole or in part to any shareholder or shareholders of
the Company or other persons or organizations; provided, however, that an
assignee, other than a corporation that is the parent or a 100% owned subsidiary
of the Company, must pay the Company, upon assignment of such right, cash equal
to the difference between the original purchase price and fair market value, if
the original purchase price is less than the fair market value of the Shares
subject to the assignment.

          (e)  Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or
               -----------------------------------
any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to
the provisions of this Agreement, including, insofar as applicable, the
Company's option to repurchase under Section 3(a). Any sale or transfer of the
Company's Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are met.

          (f)  Termination of Rights.  The right of first refusal granted the
               ---------------------
Company by Section 3(b) above and the option to repurchase the Shares in the
event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by Section 3(c) above shall
terminate upon the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general
public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act").  Upon termination of the right of first refusal
              --------------
described in Section 3(b) and the expiration or exercise of the Company's
repurchase option described in Section 3(a) above, a new certificate or
certificates representing the Shares not repurchased shall be issued, on
request, without the legend referred to in Section 6(a)(ii) herein and delivered
to Purchaser.

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

     4.   Escrow of Unvested Shares.  For purposes of facilitating the
          -------------------------
enforcement of the provisions of Section 3 above, Purchaser agrees, immediately
upon receipt of the certificate(s) for the Shares subject to the Company's
Repurchase Option described in Section 3(a), to deliver such certificate(s),
together with an Assignment Separate from Certificate in the form attached to
this Agreement as Exhibit C executed by Purchaser and by Purchaser's spouse (if
                  ---------
required for transfer), in blank, to the Secretary of the Company, or the
Secretary's designee, to hold such certificate(s) and Assignment Separate from
Certificate in escrow and to take all such actions and to effectuate all such
transfers and/or releases as are in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Purchaser hereby acknowledges that the Secretary of the Company, or the
Secretary's designee, is so appointed as the escrow holder with the foregoing
authorities as a material inducement to make this Agreement and that said
appointment is coupled with an interest and is accordingly irrevocable.
Purchaser agrees that said escrow holder shall not be liable to any party hereof
(or to any other party).  The escrow holder may rely upon any letter, notice or
other document executed by any signature purported to be genuine and may resign
at any time.  Purchaser agrees that if the Secretary of the Company, or the
Secretary's designee, resigns as escrow holder for any or no reason, the Board
of Directors of the Company shall have the power to appoint a successor to serve
as escrow holder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

     5.   Investment and Taxation Representations.  In connection with the
          ---------------------------------------
purchase of the Shares, Purchaser represents to the Company the following:

          (a)  Purchaser is aware of the Company's business affairs and
financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to
reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the securities.
Purchaser is purchasing these securities for investment for his or her own
account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
"distribution" thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.

          (b)  Purchaser understands that the securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom,
which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of
Purchaser's investment intent as expressed herein.

          (c)  Purchaser understands that the Shares are "restricted securities"
under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to
these laws, Purchaser must hold the Shares indefinitely unless they are
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state
authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification
requirements is available. Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no
obligation to register or qualify the Shares for resale.  Purchaser further
acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is
available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not
limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Shares, and
requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser's
control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to
satisfy.

          (d)  Purchaser understands that Purchaser may suffer adverse tax
consequences as a result of Purchaser's purchase or disposition of the Shares.
Purchaser represents that

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants Purchaser deems advisable in
connection the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Purchaser is not
relying on the Company for any tax advice.

     6.   Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.
          --------------------------------------------

          (a)  Legends.  The certificate or certificates representing the Shares
               -------
shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by applicable
state and federal corporate and securities laws):

               (i)  THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
                    REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN
                    ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN
                    CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF.  NO SUCH
                    SALE OR DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE
                    REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF
                    COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH
                    REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
                    1933.

               (ii) THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE
                    TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN
                    AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF
                    WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

          (b)  Stop-Transfer Notices.  Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure
               ---------------------
compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue
appropriate "stop transfer" instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and
that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate
notations to the same effect in its own records.

          (c)  Refusal to Transfer.  The Company shall not be required (i) to
               -------------------
transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in
violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner
of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser
or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

     7.   No Employment Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any
          --------------------
manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a parent or subsidiary
of the Company, to terminate Purchaser's employment, for any reason, with or
without cause.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

     8.   Section 83(b) Election.  Purchaser understands that Section 83(a) of
          ----------------------
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), taxes as ordinary
                                                    ----
income the difference between the amount paid for the Shares and the fair market
value of the Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse.  In
this context, "restriction" means the right of the Company to buy back the
               -----------
Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Option set forth in Section 3(a) of this
Agreement.  Purchaser understands that Purchaser may elect to be taxed at the
time the Shares are purchased, rather than when and as the Repurchase Option
expires, by filing an election under Section 83(b) (an "83(b) Election") of the
                                                        --------------
Code with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the date of purchase.
Even if the fair market value of the Shares at the time of the execution of this
Agreement equals the amount paid for the Shares, the election must be made to
avoid income under Section 83(a) in the future.  Purchaser understands that
failure to file such an election in a timely manner may result in adverse tax
consequences for Purchaser.  Purchaser further understands that an additional
copy of such election form should be filed with his or her federal income tax
return for the calendar year in which the date of this Agreement falls.
Purchaser acknowledges that the foregoing is only a summary of the effect of
United States federal income taxation with respect to purchase of the Shares
hereunder, and does not purport to be complete.  Purchaser further acknowledges
that the Company has directed Purchaser to seek independent advice regarding the
applicable provisions of the Code, the income tax laws of any municipality,
state or foreign country in which Purchaser may reside, and the tax consequences
of Purchaser's death.

          Purchaser agrees that he will execute and deliver to the Company with
this executed Agreement a copy of the Acknowledgment and Statement of Decision
Regarding Section 83(b) Election (the "Acknowledgment"), attached hereto as
                                       --------------
Exhibit D.  Purchaser further agrees that Purchaser will execute and submit with
---------
the Acknowledgment a copy of the 83(b) Election, attached hereto as Exhibit E,
                                                                    ---------
if Purchaser has indicated in the Acknowledgment his or her decision to make
such an election.

     9.   Market Standoff Agreement.  In connection with the initial public
          -------------------------
offering of the Company's securities and upon request of the Company or the
underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company's securities,
Purchaser agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for
the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Shares (other than those included
in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such
underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180
days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the
Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the
foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public
offering.

     10.  Miscellaneous.
          -------------

          (a)  Governing Law.  This Agreement and all acts and transactions
               -------------

     This Pledge and Security Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into this
                                              ---------
_____ day of ____________ by and between Beatnik, Inc., a California corporation

                                   RECITALS
                                   --------

     In connection with Purchaser's purchase of certain shares of the Company's
Common Stock (the "Shares") pursuant to a Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement
                   ------
dated _________________ between Purchaser and the Company, Purchaser is
delivering a promissory note of even date herewith (the "Note") in full or
                                                         ----
partial payment of the exercise price for the Shares.  The company requires that
the Note be secured by a pledge of the Shares on the terms set forth below.

                                   AGREEMENT
                                   ---------

     In consideration of the Company's acceptance of the Note as full or partial
payment of the exercise price of the Shares, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

     1.  The Note shall become payable in full upon the voluntary or involuntary
termination or cessation of employment of Purchaser with the Company, for any
reason, with or without cause (including death or disability).

     2.  Purchaser shall deliver to the Secretary of the Company, or his or her
designee (hereinafter referred to as the "Pledge Holder"), all certificates
                                          -------------
representing the Shares, together with an Assignment Separate from Certificate
in the form attached to this Agreement as Attachment A executed by Purchaser and
                                          ------------
by Purchaser's spouse (if required for transfer), in blank, for use in
transferring all or a portion of the Shares to the Company if, as and when
required pursuant to this Agreement.  In addition, if Purchaser is married,
Purchaser's spouse shall execute the signature page attached to this Agreement.

     3.  As security for the payment of the Note and any renewal, extension or
modification of the Note, Purchaser hereby grants to the Company a security
interest in and pledges with and delivers to the Company Purchaser's Shares
(sometimes referred to herein as the "Collateral").
                                      ----------

     4.  In the event that Purchaser prepays all or a portion of the Note, in
accordance with the provisions thereof, Purchaser intends, unless written notice
to the contrary is delivered to the Pledge Holder, that the Shares represented
by the portion of the Note so repaid, including annual interest thereon, shall
continue to be so held by the Pledge Holder, to serve as independent collateral
for the outstanding portion of the Note for the purpose of commencing the
holding period set forth in Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
                       --------------
<PAGE>

     5.   In the event of any foreclosure of the security interest created by
this Agreement, the Company may sell the Shares at a private sale or may
repurchase the Shares itself.  The parties agree that, prior to the
establishment of a public market for the Shares of the Company, the securities
laws affecting sale of the Shares make a public sale of the Shares commercially
unreasonable.  The parties further agree that the repurchasing of such Shares by
the Company, or by any person to whom the Company may have assigned its rights
under this Agreement, is commercially reasonable if made at a price determined
by the Board of Directors in its discretion, fairly exercised, representing what
would be the fair market value of the Shares reduced by any limitation on
transferability, whether due to the size of the block of shares or the
restrictions of applicable securities laws.

     6.   In the event of default in payment when due of any indebtedness under
the Note, the Company may elect then, or at any time thereafter, to exercise all
rights available to a secured party under the California Commercial Code
including the right to sell the Collateral at a private or public sale or
repurchase the Shares as provided above.  The proceeds of any sale shall be
applied in the following order:

          (a)  To the extent necessary, proceeds shall be used to pay all
reasonable expenses of the Company in enforcing this Agreement and the Note,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and legal expenses
incurred by the Company.

          (b)  To the extent necessary, proceeds shall be used to satisfy any
remaining indebtedness under Purchaser's Note.

          (c)  Any remaining proceeds shall be delivered to Purchaser.

     7.   Upon full payment by Purchaser of all amounts due under the Note,
Pledge Holder shall deliver to Purchaser all Shares in Pledge Holder's
possession belonging to Purchaser, and Pledge Holder shall thereupon be
discharged of all further obligations under this Agreement; provided, however,
                                                            --------  -------
that Pledge Holder shall nevertheless retain the Shares as escrow agent if at
the time of full payment by Purchaser said Shares are still subject to a
Repurchase Option in favor of the Company.

                                      -2-
