                    STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS RELATING TO
                           NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS
                     UNDER THE 1998 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN OF
                      NETPARTNERS INTERNET SOLUTIONS, INC.

        The following Standard Terms and Conditions Relating to Nonstatutory
Stock Options (the "Terms and Conditions") apply to the Nonstatutory Stock
Options granted under the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan of NetPartners Internet
Solutions, Inc. (the "Plan"), the applicable terms of which are hereby
incorporated by reference and made a part of these standard Terms and
Conditions. In turn, these Terms and Conditions are incorporated by reference
into each such Option. Whenever capitalized terms are used in these Terms and
Conditions, they shall have the meaning specified (i) in the Plan, (ii) in the
NetPartners Internet Solutions, Inc. Notice of Grant of Stock Options (the
"Facing Page") into which these Terms and Conditions are incorporated by
reference, or (iii) below, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary.
As used herein and in the Plan, the "Option Agreement" shall mean the Notice of
Grant of Stock Options Facing Page and these Terms and Conditions as
incorporated therein. The masculine pronoun shall include the feminine and
neuter, and the singular the plural, where the context so indicates.

        1. TERM OF OPTION. Subject to the maximum time limitations in Article 6
of the Plan, the term of the Option shall be the period commencing on the date
of the Option Agreement and ending on the Expiration Date (as defined in the
Facing Page), unless terminated earlier as provided herein or in the Plan.

        2. EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price of the Option granted hereby shall
be not less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of the
shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of each Option (the "Option
Shares") on the date the Option is granted; provided, however, if the Optionee
owns (or is deemed to own pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) stock
possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company (or any of its Affiliates), the exercise price
of the Option shall be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair
Market Value of the Option Shares on the date the Option is granted.

        3. EXERCISE OF OPTION.

           (a) The Facing Page shall set forth the rate at which the Option
Shares shall become subject to purchase by Optionee; provided, however, such
Option Shares shall become subject to purchase ("vest") at an annual rate which
is not less than twenty percent (20%) of the total Option Shares subject to the
Option over the five (5) year period commencing with the date of the grant of
the Option.

           (b) Optionee shall exercise the Option to the extent exercisable, in
whole or in part, by sending written notice to the Company in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit A of his intention to purchase Option Shares hereunder,
together with a check in the amount of the full purchase price of the Option
Shares to be purchased. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan,

<PAGE>   2

Optionee shall not exercise the Option at any one time with respect to less than
the minimum number of Option Shares as is set forth on the Facing Page.

           (c) Optionee agrees to complete and execute any additional documents
which the Company reasonably requests that Optionee complete in order to comply
with applicable federal, state and local securities laws, rules and regulations.

           (d) Subject to the Company's compliance with all applicable laws,
rules and regulations relating to the issuance of such Option Shares and
Optionee's compliance with all the terms and conditions of the Option Agreement,
these Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Company shall promptly deliver the
Option Shares to the Optionee.

           (e) Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Plan, the Option
may be exercised during the lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee.

        4. OPTION NOT TRANSFERABLE. The Option granted hereunder shall not be
transferable in any manner other than upon the death of Optionee as provided in
the Plan. More particularly (but without limiting the foregoing), the Option may
not be assigned, transferred (except as expressly provided herein), pledged or
hypothecated in any way, shall not be assignable by operation of law and shall
not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempted
assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Option
contrary to the provisions hereof, or the levy of any execution, attachment or
similar process upon the Option, shall be null and void and without effect.

        5. TERMINATION OF OPTION.

           (a) To the extent not previously exercised, the Option shall
terminate on the Expiration Date; provided, however, that except as otherwise
provided in this Section 5 the Option may not be exercised more than thirty (30)
days after the Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship of Optionee
for any reason (other than upon Optionee's death or disability). Within such
thirty (30) day period, Optionee may exercise the Option only to the extent the
same was exercisable on the date of such termination and said right to exercise
shall terminate at the end of such period.

           (b) In the event of the Termination of Employment or Consulting
Relationship of Optionee as a result of Optionee's disability, the Option shall
be exercisable for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of such
termination, but in no event later than the Expiration Date and only to the
extent that the Option was exercisable on the date of such termination.

           (c) In the event of the Termination of Employment or Consulting
Relationship of Optionee as a result of Optionee's death, the Option shall be
exercisable by the Optionee's estate (or by the person who acquires the right to
exercise the Option by will or by the laws of descent and distribution) for a
period of twelve (12) months from the date of such termination, but in no event
later than the Expiration Date and only to the extent that the Optionee was
entitled to exercise the Option on the date of death.

           (d) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section 5, if
the Company's Board of Directors determines in good faith that Optionee has
committed an act of

                                       2
<PAGE>   3

fraud, theft, other act of dishonesty, act of moral turpitude, or any other act
materially inimical to the interest of the Company, the Option (including the
right to purchase Option Shares hereunder which have accrued but remain
unexercised) shall cease to be exercisable simultaneously with such act.

           (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no portion of
any Option which is not exercisable by the Optionee upon the Termination of
Employment or Consulting Relationship of such Optionee shall thereafter become
exercisable, regardless of the reason for such termination.

        6. NO RIGHT TO CONTINUED RELATIONSHIP. The Option does not confer upon
Optionee any right to continue in his capacity as an Employee, Consultant or
Director of the Company, nor does it limit in any way the right of the Company
to terminate Optionee's relationship with the Company at any time, with or
without cause.

        7. RIGHT OF REPURCHASE OF OPTION SHARES.

           (a) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Option
Shares issued pursuant to the Option shall be subject to a right, but not an
obligation, of repurchase by the Company (the "Right of Repurchase"), at the
price determined under subsection (b) below, if prior to the Expiration Date or
the termination of the Right of Repurchase as provided in Section 9(d) below, a
Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship occurs for any reason,
including as a result of Optionee's death or disability. Option Shares issued by
the Company shall not be transferable by the Optionee during the period during
which the Right of Repurchase applies, and the Company may take such steps as it
deems necessary to ensure compliance with this restriction.

           (b) The price per share at which the Company may exercise the Right
of Repurchase (the "Repurchase Price") shall be the higher of (i) the price the
Optionee paid for such Option Shares or (ii) the Fair Market Value of such
Option Shares on the date the Company exercises its Right of Repurchase, as
determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors (or an officer
appointed by the Board of Directors for such purpose).

           (c) The Company's Right of Repurchase shall terminate if not
exercised by written notice from the Company to the Optionee within ninety (90)
days of the Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship, unless the
Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship occurs under section 5(b),
or 5(c), in which case, within fifteen (15) months. If the Company exercises its
Right of Repurchase, it shall give notice thereof to the Optionee within such
ninety (90) day (or 15 month) period, and, upon receipt of such notice, the
Optionee shall immediately endorse and deliver to the Company the stock
certificate(s) representing the Option Shares being repurchased, and the Company
shall then promptly pay, pursuant to the provisions of Section 7(d) below, the
total Repurchase Price to the Optionee. If the Company exercises its Right of
Repurchase it shall exercise its right with respect to all (not some) of such
Option Shares.

           (d) The Repurchase Price shall be paid first by cancellation of any
obligation for accrued but unpaid interest outstanding under notes issued by the
Optionee upon purchase of

                                       3
<PAGE>   4

the Option Shares (if any), next by cancellation of principal outstanding under
such notes (if any), and finally by payment in cash of the balance due.

           (e) In the event the Company does not elect to exercise its Right of
Repurchase within the specific period as outlined in section 7(b), the Option
Shares shall no longer be subject to repurchase by the Company pursuant to this
Section 7.

        8. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Optionee agrees that he will not sell or
otherwise transfer any Option Shares (including transfer by operation of law) at
any time after the expiration of the Right of Repurchase and prior to the
termination of this section pursuant to Section 9(d) below unless such Option
Shares shall first be offered to the Company as follows:

           (a) The Optionee shall deliver a notice (the "Notice") to the
Company, stating (i) the Optionee's bona fide intention to sell or transfer such
Option Shares, (ii) the number of such Option Shares to be sold or transferred,
(iii) the consideration for which the Optionee proposes to sell or transfer such
Option Shares, (iv) the terms of payment of such consideration and any other
terms and conditions of sale, and (v) the name of the proposed purchaser or
transferee.

           (b) Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company
may elect to purchase any or all of the Option Shares to which the Notice
refers, for the consideration per share and upon the terms and conditions
specified in the Notice, except as set forth in Section 8(e) below for transfers
involving non-cash consideration. If the Company elects not to purchase all such
Option Shares, the Company may assign its right to purchase the remaining Option
Shares. The Company's assignees may elect, within thirty (30) days after receipt
by the Company of the Notice, to purchase any or all Option Shares to which the
Notice refers which the Company has not elected to purchase, for the
consideration per share and upon the terms and conditions specified in the
Notice, except as set forth in Section 8(e) below. An election to purchase shall
be made by written notice to the Optionee, specifying the number of Option
Shares to be purchased. If the Company and/or its assignees elect to so purchase
the offered Option Shares, they shall complete the purchase of such shares
within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the Notice, unless a
longer period is set forth in the Notice.

           (c) If the Company and/or its assignees do not elect to so purchase
all of such offered Option Shares within such thirty (30) day period, Optionee
shall have no obligation to transfer such Option Shares to the Company and/or
its assignees and Optionee shall have a period of thirty (30) days thereafter to
transfer all (but not less than all) of such Option Shares to the transferee
referred to in the Notice and for the same consideration and on the other terms
as set forth therein; provided, however, that prior to any transfer of such
Option Shares, the proposed transferee shall execute and deliver to the Company
an agreement with the Company, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Company, pursuant to which such transferee agrees to be subject to the relevant
provisions of the Option Agreement.

           (d) In the event that such Option Shares are not transferred to the
transferee referred to in the Notice and in accordance with the terms of the
Option Agreement within such 30-day period, the restrictions on transfer
provided in this Section 8 shall again become applicable to the Option Shares.

                                       4
<PAGE>   5

           (e) If part or all of the purchase consideration specified in a
Notice delivered by the Optionee pursuant to this Section 8 is other than cash
or purchaser's promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness, the Company
and its assignee(s) shall have the right to purchase any or all of the Option
Shares specified in the Notice for a cash price equal to the Fair Market Value
of the number of Option Shares to be so purchased by the Company and/or its
assignee(s). The Fair Market Value of any Option Shares shall be as determined
in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors (or an officer appointed by
the Board of Directors for such purposes).

        9. OTHER PROVISIONS REGARDING TRANSFER.

           (a) Optionee, as a condition for accepting any Option Shares, shall
not sell, transfer or pledge any Option Shares subject to the Right of
Repurchase described in Section 7 or the right of first refusal described in
Section 8 hereof, other than in the manner expressly permitted in the Option
Agreement, and any such sale, transfer or pledge of the Option Shares in
violation of this Agreement shall be void. The Company shall not be required (i)
to transfer on its books any Option Shares which shall have been sold or
transferred in violation of any of the provisions set forth in the Option
Agreement or (ii) to treat as the owner of such Option Shares or accord the
right to vote or pay dividends to any transferee to whom such Option Shares
shall have been so transferred.

           (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
Optionee is under no restrictions as to the transfer by him of any or all of the
issued Option Shares to his Related Transferees (as defined herein) provided
that each such Related Transferee shall first (i) execute a written consent to
be bound by all of the relevant provisions of the Option Agreement in form and
substance satisfactory to the Company and (ii) give a duplicate original of such
consent to the Company. The "Related Transferees" of the Optionee as used herein
shall consist of the Optionee's spouse, his lineal descendants, and trusts for
the benefit of any Optionee or of the foregoing, Optionee and/or his minor
lineal descendants. In the event of any transfer by the Optionee to his Related
Transferees of all or any part of the Option Shares (or in the event of any
subsequent transfer by any such Related Transferee to another Related Transferee
of the Optionee), such Related Transferees shall receive and hold the Option
Shares subject to the relevant terms of the Option Agreement and the Optionee's
rights and obligations hereunder as though the Option Shares were still owned by
the Optionee and shall together with the Optionee continue to be deemed to be
the "Optionee" for purposes of the Option Agreement, including without
limitation restrictions on the transfer of Option Shares. There shall be no
further transfer of the Option Shares by a Related Transferee except between and
among such Related Transferee, the Optionee and other Related Transferees of the
Optionee, or except as permitted by the Option Agreement. The Company advises
the Optionee to seek independent tax counsel prior to transferring any Option
Shares to any Related Transferee.

           (c) The Optionee hereby grants to the Company a security interest in
the Option Shares for the purpose of ensuring that a transfer in violation of
the restrictions set forth in Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement does not
occur. In furtherance of such security interest, the Company may, at its option,
retain the certificate(s) evidencing the Option Shares, together with stock
assignments executed in blank by the Optionee, until such transfer restrictions
terminate in accordance with Section 9(d). The Optionee hereby grants to any
officer(s) of the

                                       5
<PAGE>   6

Company the power of attorney to cause the Option Shares to be transferred on
the books of the Company in the event the Company and/or its assignees
repurchase some or all of the Option Shares in accordance with the Option
Agreement.

           (d) The transfer restrictions provided in Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof
shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the effectiveness of a
registration statement (other than a registration statement pursuant to any
employee, purchase, savings, option, bonus, appreciation, profit sharing,
thrift, incentive or similar plan of the Company) filed by the Company under the
Securities Act in connection with the initial public offering of its securities,
and the completion of the sale of securities made pursuant to such registration
statement for an aggregate amount of at least $10,000,000, and (ii) such other
conditions as the Board of Directors may determine in its sole discretion.

        10. NOTICE OF TAX ELECTION. If Optionee makes any tax election relating
to the treatment of the Option Shares under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, Optionee shall promptly notify the Company of such election.

        11. MARKET STAND-OFF.

           (a) In connection with any underwritten public offering by the
Company of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement
filed under the Securities Act, including the Company's initial public offering,
Optionee shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge,
grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer for
value or otherwise agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with
respect to any of the Option Shares without the prior written consent of the
Company and its underwriters, for such period of time from and after the
effective date of such registration statement as may be requested by the Company
or such underwriters. This Section 11 shall only remain in effect for the one
hundred and eighty (180) day period immediately following the effective date of
the Company's initial public offering and shall thereafter terminate.

           (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Optionee shall be subject to the
market stand-off provisions of this Section 11 only if the executive officers
and directors of the Company are also subject to similar arrangements which are
no less restrictive.

           (c) In order to enforce the provisions of this Section 11, the
Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Option Shares
until the end of the applicable stand-off period.

        12. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS OF OPTIONEE. Optionee acknowledges and agrees that:

            (a) Optionee and his transferees shall have no rights as a
shareholder with respect to any Option Shares until the date of the issuance of
a stock certificate evidencing such Option Shares. No adjustment shall be made
for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or other
property) or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to
the date such stock certificate is issued, except as provided in Article 14 of
the Plan.

                                       6

            (b) All certificates representing the Option Shares shall have
endorsed thereon the following legends, the provisions of which are hereby
incorporated into the Option Agreement:

        THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
        THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR THE SECURITIES
        LAWS OF ANY STATE AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED AND SOLD PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION
        FROM THE ACT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED BY
        THE HOLDERS THEREOF AT ANY TIME EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE
        REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED UNDER THE ACT COVERING THE SECURITIES, OR
        (2) IF, IN THE REASONABLE OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE CORPORATION, SUCH
        SHARES MAY BE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT SUCH REGISTRATION.

        IN ADDITION, SALE, TRANSFER OR HYPOTHECATION OF THIS SECURITY IS
        RESTRICTED BY THE PROVISIONS OF A NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
        (AND THE STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS RELATING TO NONSTATUTORY STOCK
        OPTIONS INCORPORATED THEREIN) ENTERED INTO BY THE CORPORATION AND THIS
        SHAREHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE
        CORPORATION AND ALL OF THE PROVISIONS OF WHICH ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN.

        13. INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS. As an inducement to the Company to grant
the Option and issue the Option Shares to the Optionee, the Optionee hereby
makes the following representations and warranties, and authorizes the Company
to rely upon the same:

            (a) The Optionee will acquire the Option Shares for investment for
his own account, not for resale, without any intention of or view toward or for
participating, directly or indirectly, in a distribution of the Option Shares or
any portion thereof.

            (b) The Optionee understands that an investment in the Company is
speculative, that any possible profits therefrom are uncertain, and that he must
bear the economic risks of the investment in the Company for an indefinite
period of time.

            (c) The Optionee understands that the Option Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption provided by
Rule 701 promulgated thereunder for compensatory benefit plans; and that the
Option Shares have not been registered or qualified under the "blue sky" laws of
any state.

            (d) The Optionee understands that the Option Shares may have to be
held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities
Act and qualified or registered under other applicable securities laws, rules
and regulations, which is unlikely, or unless an exemption from such
qualification or registration is available.

            (e) The Optionee understands and agrees that (i) the legends set
forth in Section 12(b) hereof will be placed on the certificate(s) evidencing
the Option Shares and, except

                                       7
<PAGE>   8

as otherwise provided in Section 12(b), on certificate(s) issued to transferees;
(ii) the stock records of the Company will be noted with respect to such
restrictions; (iii) the Company will not be under any obligation to register the
Option Shares or to comply with any exemption available for sale of the Option
Shares without registration; and (iv) the information or conditions necessary to
permit routine sales of securities of the Company under Rule 144 of the
Securities Act are not now available and it is not likely that they will become
available in the foreseeable future.

            (f) The Optionee is a bona fide resident and domiciliary of, not a
temporary transient resident of, and has his principal residence in, the state
or other jurisdiction set forth under Optionee's signature in the Option
Agreement, and Optionee does not have any present intention of moving his
principal residence from such state or jurisdiction.

        14. WITHHOLDING TAXES. Whenever Option Shares are to be issued under the
Option Agreement, the Company shall have the right to require Optionee to remit
to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local
withholding tax requirements prior to issuance and/or delivery of any
certificate or certificates for such Option Shares.

        15. FINANCIAL INFORMATION. The Corporation shall provide to each
Optionee on an annual basis a copy of the annual financial report prepared by
the Company's independent certified public accountants.

        16. MISCELLANEOUS.

            (a) The Option Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the
parties' heirs, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.

            (b) The Option Agreement, the Plan, and these Terms and Conditions
constitute the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject
matter contained herein and they supersede all prior and contemporaneous
agreements, representations and understandings of the parties. No supplement,
modification or amendment of the Option Agreement shall be binding unless
executed in writing by all of the parties. No waiver of any of the provisions of
the Option Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other
provisions, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing
waiver. No waiver shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party
making the waiver. In the event there exists any conflict or discrepancy between
any of the terms in the Plan and the Option Agreement, the terms of the Plan
shall be controlling. A copy of the Plan has been delivered to the Optionee and
also may be inspected by Optionee at the principal office of the Company.

            (c) Should any portion of the Plan, the Option Agreement or these
Terms and Conditions be declared invalid and unenforceable, then such portion
shall be deemed to be severable from the Option Agreement and shall not affect
the remainder hereof.

            (d) All notices to be sent hereunder shall be delivered in person or
sent by United States Mail, certified and postage prepaid, to Optionee at the
address set forth on the Facing Page of the Option Agreement or to the Company
at its principal place of business, Attention: President. Any change in the
address to which notices shall be sent under the Option

                                       8
<PAGE>   9

Agreement to the Optionee shall be made by the Optionee upon ten (10) days'
written notice to the Company.

            (e) The Option Agreement shall be construed according to the laws of
the State of Delaware.

        17. VESTING ACCELERATION FOR ONE YEAR EMPLOYEES.

            (a) In the event of a Change in Control (as defined herein) any
surviving corporation or acquiring corporation shall assume this Option
Agreement or shall substitute a similar Option Agreement. In the event any
surviving or acquiring corporation refuses to assume this Option Agreement or to

the Company for a minimum of a consecutive twelve (12) month period, then (i)
the vesting (and, if applicable, the exercisability) of this Option Agreement
shall be accelerated immediately prior to such event, and (ii) any Company
repurchase option or reacquisition right with respect to shares acquired by the
Optionee under this Option Agreement shall lapse immediately prior to such event
and the shares shall be fully vested.

            (b) In addition, if the Optionee has been employed by the Company

(24) months following a Change in Control one of the following events occurs:
(i) Optionee's Continuous Service is terminated by the acquiror or successor
without Cause (as defined herein); (ii) the principal place of the performance
of Optionee's responsibilities (the "Principal Location") is changed to a
location more than fifty (50) miles from Optionee's Principal Location
immediately prior to the Change in Control; or (iii) there is a material
reduction in Optionee's compensation or responsibilities (not involving a
termination of Continuous Service for Cause); then the unvested portion of
Optionee's Options shall immediately become fully vested and exercisable and any
Company repurchase option or reacquisition right with respect to shares acquired
by the Optionee under this Option Agreement shall immediately lapse and the
shares shall be fully vested.

            (c) For the purposes of this Option Agreement, "Cause" shall mean:

other corporation or other entity or person, or any other corporate
reorganization, in which the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to
such consolidation, merger or reorganization, own less than 50% of the company's
voting power immediately after such consolidation, merger or reorganization, or
any transaction of series of related transactions in which in excess of fifty
percent (50%) of the Company's voting power is transferred; or (ii) a sale,
lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company.

            (e) For purposes of this Option Agreement, "Continuous Service"
shall mean Optionee's service with the Company or an Affiliate, whether as an
Employee, Director or Consultant is not interrupted or terminated. The Board or
the Chief Executive Officer of the Company may determine, in that party's sole

                                  INTRODUCTION

        WHEREAS, QUALCOMM INCORPORATED (the "Company") has established a
supplementary employee retirement plan as set forth herein (the "Plan") to
provide deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly
compensated employees of the Employer, originally effective December 1, 1995;
and

        WHEREAS, the Company amended and restated the Plan on August 26, 1996,
to refine the definition of "Base Salary;" on December 18, 1997, to limit the
instances in which termination of employment following a Change of Control will
fully vest the benefits provided to participants in the Plan, on January 19,
1998, to provide for the discretionary allocation of contributions by the Board,
to the accounts of Participants, on April 24, 1998, to adjust the formula for
Matching Contributions in order to improve the benefits provided to Participants
in the Plan and to add additional vesting schedules to allow certain
participants to accelerate the vesting in their participant Accounts, on August
1, 1998, to allow the transfer of funds under limited circumstances to or from
certain other nonqualified, unfunded, deferred compensation plans and to
determine when a termination of employment has occurred, and effective February
20, 1999 to permit employment with the Company's Affiliate, Wireless Knowledge,
Inc. to be considered for purposes of certain types of vesting under the Plan;
and

        WHEREAS, the Company has the legal authority to establish the Plan
pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware and to amend the Plan pursuant to
Section 10.1 of the Plan; and

        WHEREAS, the Company intends to provide under the Plan that the Company
shall pay to Participants and their beneficiaries the entire cost of benefits
under the Plan from its general assets and set aside contributions by the
Company to meet its obligations under the Plan; and

        WHEREAS, the Company intends that the assets of the Plan and its
accompanying trust shall at all times be subject to the claims of the general
creditors of the Company in the event of the financial insolvency of the
Company; and

        WHEREAS, the Company intends that any rights of Participants in the Plan
and their beneficiaries be unsecured and unfunded for purposes of tax law and
for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
as amended ("ERISA"); and

        WHEREAS, the Company wishes to amend the Plan to add an additional
alternate vesting schedule;

        NOW, THEREFORE, the Company does hereby amend and restate the Plan as
follows, effective as of January 1, 2000, and does also hereby agree that the
assets of the Plan shall be identified, held, invested, and disposed of as
follows:

                                  CONTRIBUTIONS

        3.1 All non-discretionary contributions ("Match Contributions") to the
Plan with respect to a given Participant shall be made by the Company in the
amount determined under the following formula.

        The Company will make a Match Contribution to the Plan with respect to a
Participant for a Plan Year in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the
amount which such Participant has authorized to be withheld from his or her
compensation (as defined in the Executive Retirement Plan) which would have
otherwise been paid during such Plan Year and which is contributed to the
Executive Retirement Plan on his or her behalf.

        For Plan Years prior to Plan Year 1998, the Match Contribution to the
Plan with respect to a Participant for a given Plan Year shall not exceed 7.5%
(or 50% of 15%) of such Participant's Base Salary for the fiscal year of the

ends with or within the Plan Year, reduced by the lesser of 50% of the limit
established under section 402(g) of the Code for the calendar year which ends
with or within such Plan Year (i.e., 50% of $9,240 for calendar year 1995) or
50% of the maximum amount which the Plan permits a Participant to contribute to
the 401(k) Plan for the fiscal year of the 401(k) Plan which ends with or within
such Plan Year (the "401(k) Annual Matching Contribution Limit").

        For Plan Year 1998, the Match Contribution to the Plan with respect to a
Participant shall not exceed the sum of 7.5% (or 50% of 15%) of the wages
portion of such Participant's Base Salary (excluding all items of compensation
listed as being excluded from the definition of Base Salary and also excluding
the annual cash incentive bonus that is normally paid by the Employer to the
Participant in the month of December) and 10% (or 50% of 20%) of the portion of
such Participant's Base Salary that is attributable to the annual cash incentive
bonus that is normally paid by the Employer to the Participant in the month of
December for the fiscal year of the 401(k) Plan which ends with or within the
Plan Year, reduced by the lesser of 50% of the limit established under section
402(g) of the Code for the calendar year which ends with or within such Plan
Year (i.e., 50% of $10,000 for calendar year 1998) or 50% of the 401(k) Annual
Matching Contribution Limit.

        For Plan Years commencing after Plan Year 1998, the Match Contribution
to the Plan with respect to a Participant for a given Plan Year shall not exceed
10% (or 50% of 20%) of such Participant's Base Salary for the fiscal year of the
401(k) Plan which ends with or within the Plan Year, reduced by the lesser of
50% of the limit established under section 402(g) of the Code for the calendar
year which ends with or within such Plan Year or 50% of the 401(k) Annual
Matching Contribution Limit.

a specified quarterly contribution period as described in Section 3.4 shall be
equal to fifty percent (50%) of the amount which the Participant has authorized
to be withheld from his or her compensation (as defined in the Executive
Retirement Plan) for contribution to the Executive Retirement Plan

                                       5.
<PAGE>   8

which would have otherwise been paid during such quarterly contribution period,
subject to a maximum of 2.5% (1.875% for Plan Years prior to Plan Year 1998) of
such Participant's Base Salary for the fiscal year of the 401(k) Plan ending
with or within the Plan Year with respect to which such quarterly contribution
is made, and further reduced by 25% of the 401(k) Annual Matching Contribution
Limit for the fiscal year of the 401(k) Plan ending with or within the Plan Year
in which such quarterly contribution period falls. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company's Match Contribution to the Plan for a given Participant
for the final quarterly contribution period for a given Plan Year shall be equal
to the annual Match Contribution for such Participant for that Plan Year
calculated by applying the rules set forth in the preceding paragraph, reduced
by the sum of the Match Contributions made by the Company for the first three
quarterly contribution periods of that Plan Year. Furthermore, notwithstanding
any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Company's Match
Contribution for a given Participant for a specified quarterly contribution
period shall be rounded up to the next whole number of shares of the Company's
common stock. No Participant shall be permitted to make or authorize any
contributions to the Plan, whether by means of authorized withholding and
deferral of compensation or otherwise.

        No entity which is a part of the Employer other than the Company shall
have any obligations to make any contributions to the Plan, pay any benefits to
any Participant created by the Plan, or have any other financial obligation or
liability as a result of the establishment, operation or termination of the
Plan.

        3.2 From time to time the Company may, as recommended by the
Compensation Committee to the Board, and approved by the Board in its complete
discretion, make a discretionary contribution of less than twenty-five thousand
(25,000) shares to a Participant's Account, for one or more Participants, to
recruit or retain Participants as employees of the Company.

        3.3 All contributions to the Plan shall be made solely in the form of
whole shares of the Company's common stock. For purposes of converting the
Company's contribution from a dollar value as determined under Section 3.1 to a
number of whole shares of the Company's common stock which shall be contributed
for a quarterly contribution period as described in Section 3.4, the Fair Market
Value of the Company's common stock shall be the average of the closing sales
prices for the Company's common stock for a period of the last ten (10) trading
days within such quarterly contribution period.

        3.4 Match Contributions shall be made to the Plan by the Company for a
given Plan Year on a quarterly basis. The first quarterly Match Contribution
shall be made as soon as administratively reasonable after March 31 and shall
relate to contributions on compensation received or otherwise receivable by
Participants on or after January 1 and on or before the next following March 31.
The second quarterly Match Contribution shall be made as soon as
administratively reasonable after June 30 and shall relate to contributions on
compensation received or otherwise receivable by Participants after March 31 and
on or before the following June 30. The third quarterly Match Contribution shall
be made as soon as administratively reasonable after September 30 and shall
relate to contributions on compensation received or otherwise receivable by
Participants after June 30 and on or before the following September 30.

                                       6.
<PAGE>   9

The fourth quarterly Match Contribution shall be made as soon as
administratively reasonable after December 31 and shall relate to contributions
on compensation received or otherwise receivable by Participants after September
30 and on or before the last day of such Plan Year. However, the Match
Contribution for the Plan's initial Plan Year shall be made as soon as
administratively reasonable after December 31, 1995 and shall relate to
contributions on compensation received or otherwise receivable by Participants
during the month of December 1995.

        Discretionary contributions made pursuant to Section 3.2 may be made at
any time.

        3.5 All contributions to the Plan made by the Company shall be held as
an asset of the Company, and the Company shall deposit such contributions (less
any applicable tax withholding required by law) into the Trust.

        3.6 The Company, through the Plan Administrator, has the power to
establish rules and from time to time to modify or change such rules governing
the manner and method by which contributions are made, but only the Compensation
Committee may change the contribution formula set forth in Section 3.1 of the
Plan.

        3.7 All deposits to the Trust made under the Plan on behalf of a
Participant shall be reflected by a credit in the same amount to such
Participant's Account. A Participant's Account is a bookkeeping record of all
amounts deposited in the Trust on behalf of such Participant, and any earnings
allocated to such Account as provided in the Plan, for purposes of determining
the Participant's interest in the Trust, and shall be accounted for and reported
in terms of whole shares of the Company's common stock.

        3.8 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the
maximum number of shares which may be contributed to the Plan shall be eight
hundred thousand (800,000) shares of the Company's common stock (after giving
effect to the 2:1 split in the Company's common stock effective May 10, 1999,
and the 4:1 split in the Company's common stock effective December 30, 1999).

                          WITHDRAWALS DURING EMPLOYMENT

        4.1 A Participant may request a withdrawal of some or all of his or her
benefits from the Plan while remaining employed by the Employer, but whether or
not such a request is approved shall be in the sole discretion of the Plan
Administrator.

             EARNINGS ON PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS AND PLAN INVESTMENTS

        5.1 All contributions will be made in shares of the Company's common
stock. In the event that the Trust for any reason holds cash or other property
sufficient to purchase a whole share of the Company's common stock, the Trustee
shall arrange to acquire additional shares of the Company's common stock, either
by purchasing such shares in the public market or by

                                       7.
<PAGE>   10

acquiring such shares directly from the Company. In the event that the Trust for
any reason holds cash or other property in an amount insufficient to purchase a
whole share of the Company's common stock, such amount shall be held in cash or
a cash equivalent determined by the Plan Administrator.

        5.2 All contributions and other amounts governed by the terms of the
Plan and Trust Agreement, including all investments purchased with such amounts
and all income attributable thereto, shall remain (until distributed to a
Participant or Beneficiary) the property of the Company as provided under the
Plan and Trust Agreement and shall be subject to the claims of the Company's
general creditors in the event of the Company's financial insolvency. No
Participant or Beneficiary shall have any secured or beneficial interest in any
property, rights or investments held by the Company, the Employer or the Trustee
in connection with the Plan.

        5.3 Each Participant's Account shall be invested in shares of the
Company's common stock and shall be accounted for and reported in terms of whole
shares of the Company's common stock.

        5.4 Earnings shall be calculated and allocated as of the last day of
each Plan Year and such other dates as shall be determined by the Plan
Administrator in the Plan Administrator's sole discretion.

        5.5 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, and
intending to elaborate on the other provisions of this Article 5, any
transaction which might cause the Trust to hold any property other than a single
class of the Company's securities (such as cash) as a result of any transaction
(such as the payment of a cash dividend), and after the completion of such
transaction that other property does not comprise a majority of the Plan's
assets (by value) held by the Trust, then such property shall be allocated to
Participants' Accounts on a provisional basis, the Trustee shall use such
property to acquire additional shares of the same class of the Company's
security held by the Trust, and each Participant's Account shall then be rounded
to the nearest whole number of shares of such security. Any remaining property
other than the Company's securities shall be held unallocated in the Trust. If
after completing these actions the number of shares of the Company's securities
held by the Trust is less than the sum of the shares allocated to the
Participants' Accounts, then the Company shall contribute sufficient additional
shares to the Trust to make up the difference. If the sum of the number of
shares allocated to the Participants' Accounts is less than the number of shares
of the Company's securities held by the Trust, then all Participants whose
Account balances were rounded down shall be ranked in order based on the size of
the fractional share allocated to their Accounts prior to such rounding, and the
Accounts of such Participants shall be increased to the next higher whole share
in their order of ranking, one by one, until the number of shares allocated to
the Participants' Accounts equals the number of shares of the Company's
securities held by the Trust.

                                    ARTICLE 6
                                   BENEFICIARY

        6.1 The Participant's Enrollment Agreement shall designate the
Beneficiary who is to receive a distribution of the value of a Participant's
Account in the event of such Participant's

                                       8.
<PAGE>   11

death. If the Participant has not properly designated a Beneficiary, or if for
any reason such designation shall not be legally effective, or if said
designated Beneficiary shall predecease the Participant, then the Participant's
Beneficiary shall be determined by the terms of the Executive Retirement Plan.
The other terms and conditions of a Participant's selection of a Beneficiary
shall also be determined by the Executive Retirement Plan.

                                    ARTICLE 7
                                     VESTING

        7.1 The value of a Participant's Account at the time of vesting (i.e.,
to the extent not forfeited earlier) shall vest in accordance with whichever one
of the following schedules results in the largest vested balance in such
Participant's Account:

               (a) One hundred percent (100%) shall be vested upon the
occurrence of such Participant's death, termination of employment on account of
total and permanent disability, or attainment of Normal Retirement Age while
employed by the Employer. "Total and permanent disability" means a medically
determinable physical or mental impairment which renders the Participant unable
to engage in any substantial gainful activity and which can be expected to
result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous
period of not less than twelve (12) months.

               (b) One hundred percent (100%) of all contributions
(discretionary and non-discretionary) made on the Participant's behalf for a
Plan Year shall be vested on the first day of the eleventh Plan Year that
follows such Plan Year, provided that the Participant has not terminated
employment with all Employers by that date.

               (c) For a Participant who has attained at least age 61 and has
completed three (3) Years of Service for Vesting (as defined in the Executive
Retirement Plan), then the value of such Participant's Account shall be vested
on the day on which the foregoing conditions are satisfied, provided that the
Participant has not terminated employment with all Employers by that date (the
"Age 61 & 3 Vesting Date"), in an amount determined by multiplying the value of
such Participant's Account, on such date, by the product of 20% multiplied by
the number of whole years (with fractional years rounded down) by which such
Participant's age exceeds 60. On each anniversary of the Age 61 & 3 Vesting Date
thereafter, the vested value of such Participant's Account shall be recalculated
again by using the formula for calculating the vested value of such
Participant's Account on the Age 61 & 3 Vesting Date, provided that the
Participant has not terminated employment with all Employers by that date.

               (d) In determining the vesting of persons who were Participants
in the Plan on or prior to April 24, 1998, the following vesting schedule shall
also be considered. Upon satisfaction of the age and service requirements for
Early Retirement Age while employed by the Employer, then such a Participant's
Account shall become vested in that percentage determined according to the
following formula: one hundred percent (100%) reduced by ten percent (10%) for
each full six-month period during which the Participant must remain employed
with the Employer in order to reach his or her Normal Retirement Age while
employed by the Employer. Upon completing each additional six-month period of
employment with the Employer after

                                       9.
<PAGE>   12

having attained Early Retirement Age while employed by the Employer, such a
Participant's Account shall be vested in an additional ten percent (10%).

               (e) Partially or fully vested in the complete discretion of the
Compensation Committee.

               (f) One hundred percent (100%) vested in the event of a Change of
Control, if at any time within twenty-four (24) months of the Change of Control,
the Participant's employment with the Employer is involuntarily terminated by
the Employer without Cause, or if such employment is voluntarily terminated by
the Participant with Good Reason (which Good Reason must occur at or after the
time of the Change of Control).

               (g) Effective January 1, 2000, for determining the vesting of
contributions (whenever made) to the account of a person who is a Participant on
or after that date the following schedule shall also be considered: twenty-five
percent (25%) of the contributions relating to a given Plan Year (including any
earnings thereon) shall vest at the end of each Plan Year thereafter; provided,
however, that (i) the Participant is an employee of the Employer for the entire
duration of such subsequent Plan Year, and (ii) the Participant is deferring
compensation into the Executive Retirement Plan during that subsequent Plan
Year. If the Participant takes an unpaid leave of absence that either is
approved by the Employer or is legally required to be made available to the
Participant, and from which it is anticipated that the Participant will return
to service as an employee of the Employer, then the duration of that leave of
absence will not be considered for purposes of determining whether the
Participant has been employed for the entire duration of a Plan Year (e.g.,
vacation, sabbatical, paid time off for illness or injury of the Participant or
to care for a member of the Participant's family or circle of friends due to
that person's illness or injury are instances in which the Participant would be
anticipated to return to active service as an employee of the Employer). If the
Participant is not an employee of the Employer for the entire duration of a
subsequent Plan Year or is not deferring compensation into the Executive
Retirement Plan during such subsequent Plan Year, then all further vesting under
this provision shall be suspended for that Participant. Suspended vesting
installments relating to contributions made to a Participant's Account for a
particular Plan Year shall vest as follows: (i) the suspended vesting
installment that would have been first to vest if the above conditions had been
met shall vest at the end of the next Plan Year following such suspension in
which (A) the Participant is an employee of the Employer for the entire duration
of such Plan Year, and (B) the Participant is deferring compensation into the
Executive Retirement Plan during such Plan Year; and (ii) only one suspended
vesting installment of the suspended vesting installments relating to
contributions made for a particular Plan Year shall vest in that later Plan
Year. The other suspended vesting installments relating to contributions made to
a Participant's Account for a particular Plan Year shall vest one at a time in
later Plan Years in which the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence are
met.

        7.2 For purposes of Sections 7.1(b), (c) and (d) (including the
calculation of Years of Service for Vesting), a Participant's service and
employment with Leap Wireless International, Inc. ("Leap") shall be treated as
service and employment with the Employer if such Participant commenced
employment with Leap on or before October 1, 1998 and such employment was
immediately subsequent to employment with the Employer.

                                      10.
<PAGE>   13

        7.3 For purposes of Sections 7.1(b), (c) and (d) (including the
calculation of Years of Service for Vesting), a Participant's service and
employment with Wireless Knowledge, Inc. ("WK") shall be treated as service and
employment with the Employer if such Participant (i) received a discretionary
contribution pursuant to Section 3.2, (ii) commenced employment with WK on or
before April 1, 1999 and (iii) such employment was concurrent with, or
immediately subsequent to, employment with the Employer or an Affiliate.

        7.4 Notwithstanding the vesting of some or all of the amounts credited
to Participants' Accounts under the Plan, all amounts credited to all
Participants' Accounts shall remain available to satisfy the claims of the
Company's creditors in the event of the Company's financial insolvency as
defined in the Trust Agreement. Amounts credited to a Participant's Account
which are not vested at the time that the Participant terminates employment with
the Employer shall be forfeited and applied to reduce the Company's future
contributions or to pay costs associated with the operation and administration
of the Plan. A Participant who forfeits any such amounts shall have no rights to
the restoration of such amounts in the event that he or she once again becomes
employed by the Employer and is eligible to participate in the Plan.

                                    ARTICLE 8
                            DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS

        8.1 A Participant shall automatically receive a distribution of his or
her vested benefits in the Plan as soon as administratively reasonable following
the termination of the Participant's employment with the Employer. The amount of
such distribution shall be equal to the final balance of such vested benefits
credited to such Participant's Account as of the date of such termination, plus
any subsequent contributions. The distribution shall be paid only in whole
shares of the Company's common stock or stock of Leap Wireless International,
Inc., a Delaware corporation and any succeeding or continuing corporation of the
foregoing. A distribution of vested benefits will be made to such Participant
based upon the payment option elected by the Participant. The forms of payment
options and the terms and conditions for making and changing an election
regarding a payment option shall be the same as provided for under the Executive
Retirement Plan.

        8.2 Any benefits paid upon the death of a Participant must be paid to
the Beneficiary designated by such Participant in the Enrollment Agreement. Such
death benefits shall be paid in the form of payment determined under the
Executive Retirement Plan.

        8.3 In the event that a Participant or Beneficiary elects to receive his
or her distribution in the form of installment payments in accordance with the
terms of the Executive Retirement Plan, the Plan Administrator shall require
that all installment payments be made solely in whole shares of the Company's
common stock and shall direct the Trustee to make such payments in accordance
with that requirement.

        8.4 The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to withhold from a
distribution to a Participant or Beneficiary or from a Participant's Account any
amount needed to satisfy the Employer's income or employment withholding tax
obligations with respect to such distribution

                                      11.
<PAGE>   14

or upon the vesting of a Participant's Account and may also arrange with the
Participant to allow the Participant to make payment to the Employer to satisfy
such obligations.

        8.5 In the event that any distribution from the Plan received or to be
received by a Participant (a "Distribution") would (i) constitute a "parachute
payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this
Section 8.5, cause the Participant to become subject to the excise tax imposed
by Section 4999 of the Code (the "Excise Tax") or increase such Participant's
Excise Tax liability, then such Distribution may be reduced to the largest
amount which the Participant, in his or her sole discretion, determines would
result in no portion of the Distribution being subject to the Excise Tax. The
determination by a Participant of any reduction shall be conclusive and binding
upon the Employer, the Company, and the Plan Administrator. The Plan
Administrator shall reduce a Distribution only upon written notice by the
Participant indicating the amount of such reduction and/or shall accept the
return of some or all of a Distribution previously made to a Participant. Any
amounts returned to the Plan pursuant to this Section 8.5 shall be treated as a
forfeiture and shall be used to reduce the Company's future contributions to the
Plan or to pay costs associated with the operation and administration of the
Plan.

        8.6 For purposes of this Article 8, the following shall be deemed to be
employment of the Participant with the Employer: (i) employment by an Affiliate,
(ii) the provision of consulting services to the Employer or Affiliate, (iii)
employment by Leap Wireless International, Inc. that commences prior to October
1, 1998, and is simultaneous with or immediately after employment with the
Employer or an Affiliate, and (iv) if the Participant has received a
discretionary contribution pursuant to Section 3.2, then employment by WK that
commences prior to April 1, 1999, and is simultaneous with or immediately after
employment with the Employer or an Affiliate.

                                    ARTICLE 9
                                 ADMINISTRATION

        9.1 The Plan Administrator shall be a committee of one or more
individuals which has the authority to control and manage the operation and
administration of the Plan. The Plan Administrator may also be referred to as
the Plan Committee. Administrative concerns of the Plan include, but are not
limited to, the enrollment of Eligible Employees as Participants, the
maintenance of all records, the direction of the Trustee to distribute benefits
to Participants and their Beneficiaries, the interpretation of the Plan, and the
establishment of rules and procedures for the operation of the Plan Committee.
The initial number of members of the Plan Committee shall be three (3), until
such number is changed by the approval of the majority of the Plan Committee. A
member of the Plan Committee must be an employee of the Employer or member of
the Board and shall continue to serve until such member (i) resigns, (ii) is
removed or (iii) terminates employment with the Employer and no longer serves on
the Board for any reason. The approval of at least two-thirds of the members of
the Plan Committee shall be required to remove a member of the Plan Committee. A
majority of the remaining members of the Plan Committee may fill one or more
vacancies on the Plan Committee. The Plan Committee may allocate and delegate
some or all of its responsibilities described in this Article 9. The Plan
Committee's authority under this Article 9.1 shall at times be subject to the
ability of the

                                      12.
<PAGE>   15

Compensation Committee to remove any or all of the members of the Plan Committee
for any reason, change the number of members of the Plan Committee, fill
vacancies on such committee, and establish rules and procedures for such
committee.

        9.2 Any decision or action of the Plan Administrator with respect to any
question arising out of or in connection with the administration, interpretation
and application of the Plan and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder
or a Participant's Enrollment Agreement shall be final and conclusive and
binding upon all persons having any interest in the Plan.

        9.3 All costs and expenses related to the operation and administration
of the Plan shall be paid by the Company.

                                   ARTICLE 10
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

        10.1 AMENDMENT OF PLAN. The Company reserves the right to amend any
provisions of the Plan at any time upon an action by a majority of the Plan
Committee or the Compensation Committee to the extent that it may deem advisable
without the consent of the Participant or any Beneficiary; provided, however,
that no such amendment shall impair the rights of any Participant or Beneficiary
with respect to either contributions made or authorized before such amendment or
any earnings on such contributions credited to a Participant's Account before
such amendment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the formula for determining the
Employer's contributions may only be amended by the Board or the Compensation
Committee. Any such amendment to the Plan shall be submitted for the approval of
the Company's stockholders if such approval is required to comply with the
requirements of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, or the terms of any listing agreement with any established
securities exchange or automated quotation system (including NASDAQ) on which
the Company's common stock is listed for trading, or for any other reason
determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee after consulting with
legal counsel.

        10.2 TERMINATION OF PLAN. The Company reserves the right to terminate
the Plan at any time upon an action by the Board or the Compensation Committee.
Distribution of any benefits to a Participant shall generally commence only upon
the occurrence of the termination of employment of a Participant; provided,
however, that the Plan Administrator shall retain the sole discretion to make
payment to a Participant in the form of a single, lump sum distribution at any
time following the termination of the Plan.

        10.3   TRANSFERS TO OTHER PLANS.

               (a) In the event that a Participant employed by the Employer or
an Affiliate of the Employer simultaneously or subsequently becomes employed by
Leap Wireless International, Inc., the Plan Administrator shall have the right,
but no obligation, to direct the Trustee to transfer funds in an amount equal to
the amount credited to such Participant's Account (the "Transferred Account") to
a trust established under a Transferee Plan. The Plan Administrator shall
determine, in its sole discretion, whether such transfer shall be made and the

                                      13.
<PAGE>   16

timing of such transfer. Such transfer shall be made only if, and to the extent
that, approval of such transfer is obtained from the Trustee.

               (b) For purposes of this Section 10.3, "Transferee Plan" shall
mean an unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation plan described in Sections
201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974 ("ERISA") maintained by Leap Wireless International, Inc.

               (c) No transfer shall be made under this Section 10.3 unless the
Participant for whose benefit the Transferred Account is held executes a written
waiver of all of such Participant's rights and benefits under this Plan in such
form as shall be acceptable to the Plan Administrator.

        10.4   TRANSFERS IN FROM OTHER PLANS.

               There may be transferred directly from the trustee of another
nonqualified, unfunded, deferred compensation plan ("Other Plan") to the
Trustee, subject to the approval of the transferor corporation maintaining the
Other Plan, the Plan Administrator, and the Eligible Employee, funds in an
amount not to exceed the amount credited to the Other Plan accounts maintained
for the benefit of that Eligible Employee. Amounts transferred pursuant to this
Section 10.4, and any gains or losses allocable thereto, (i) shall be accounted
for separately ("Transfer Account") from amounts otherwise allocable to the
Eligible Employee under this Plan, and (ii) the Transfer Account shall be
distributed in accordance with the Eligible Employee's deferral election under
the Other Plan, as such election may be amended pursuant to the terms of the
Other Plan. Subsequent earnings on the amount in the Transfer Account shall be
credited to a separate account for the Eligible Employee established pursuant to
this Plan and shall be determined under the Plan's investment procedures in
Article 5.

        10.5 The Plan Administrator may at any time make rules as it determines
necessary regarding the administration of the Plan which are not inconsistent
with the Plan.

        10.6 The Plan Administrator may, from time to time, hire outside
consultants, accountants, actuaries, legal counsel, or recordkeepers to perform
such tasks as the Plan Administrator may from time to time determine.

        10.7 In the event that any Participants are found to be ineligible, that
is, not members of a select group of management or highly compensated employees
eligible to participate in a Top Hat Plan, according to a determination made by
the United States Department of Labor, the Plan Administrator will take whatever
steps it deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to equitably protect the
interests of the affected Participants.

        10.8 No benefits under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to
anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance,
attachment or garnishment. The provisions of the Plan shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Company, the Employer and Participants and their
respective successors, heirs, personal representatives, executors,
administrators, and legatees.

                                      14.
<PAGE>   17

        Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan to the contrary, any
amount credited to a Participant's Account shall be paid from the Trust only to
the extent that the Company is not financially insolvent at the time of such
payment. Whether or not the Company is financially insolvent shall be determined
by the Trustee in the Trustee's sole discretion based upon the standard for
financial insolvency set forth in the Trust Agreement. Any benefits under the
Plan represent an unfunded, unsecured promise by the Company to pay these
benefits to the Participants when due. A Participant has no greater right to any
assets in the Trust than the general creditors of the Company in the event that
the Company shall become financially insolvent. Trust assets can be used to pay
only benefits under the Plan or the claims of the Company's general creditors or
the expenses of administering the Plan and Trust to the extent permitted under
the terms of the Trust Agreement.

        10.9 The Plan, the Trust Agreement, and the Participant's Enrollment
Agreement, and any subsequently adopted amendment to any of these documents,
shall constitute the total agreement or contract between the Company and such
Participant regarding the Plan. No oral statement regarding the Plan may be
relied upon by the Participant. If there are any conflicts between the terms of
the Plan and the Trust Agreement, and a Participant's Enrollment Agreement, the
terms of the Plan and the Trust Agreement shall control.

        10.10 The terms and conditions of the Plan shall not be deemed to
constitute a contract of employment between the Employer and the Participant.
Such employment is hereby acknowledged to be an "at will" employment
relationship that can be terminated at any time for any reason, with or without
cause, unless expressly provided in a written employment agreement or expressly
provided by law. Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the
right to be retained in the service of the Employer, or to interfere with the
right of the Employer to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time.

        10.11 If any change is made to the Company's common stock because of a
change in the Company's capital structure not involving the receipt of
consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, dividend in property other
than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of
shares, change in corporate structure or otherwise, then the class(es) and
number of shares that may be contributed by the Company under Section 3.8 and
the class(es) and number of shares held by the Trust will be appropriately
adjusted to reflect the impact of such change upon the Company's stockholders.
The conversion of any convertible securities issued by the Company shall not be
considered a transaction "involving the receipt of consideration by the
Company." In the event that such change causes the Trust to hold substantially
all of its assets in securities of the Company or a successor corporation to the
Company other than the Company's common stock, references in the Plan to the
Company's common stock shall mean such securities. After the occurrence of a
transaction described in this Section 10.11, the rounding rules set forth in
Section 5.5 shall be applied to ensure that each Participant's Account shall be
invested in the shares of the Company's common stock (or such other securities)
and shall be accounted for and reported in terms of whole shares of the
Company's common stock (or such other securities).

        10.12 The Company shall seek to obtain from each regulatory commission
or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan the authority as may be required to
contribute and distribute

                                      15.
<PAGE>   18

shares of the Company's common stock; provided, however, that this undertaking
shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or comparable securities law of any other applicable jurisdiction,
shares of the Company's common stock or any participation interest in the Plan
deemed to be a security. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to
obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel
for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance of stock to the Plan or
distribution of stock from the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any
liability for failure to issue the Company's common stock to the Plan, and the
Company, Employer, Plan Administrator and/or the Trustee shall be relieved from
any liability for failure to distribute the Company's common stock from the
Plan, as applicable, unless and until such authority is obtained.

        10.13 This Plan shall be construed under the laws of the State of
California, except to the extent that the laws of the State are preempted by
ERISA.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Plan is hereby adopted by a duly authorized
officer of QUALCOMM, Incorporated on this __ day of ________, 1999.

                                        QUALCOMM, INC.
