Board or (B) a Committee (or a subcommittee of the Committee) designated by the

Applicable Laws. Once appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its
designated capacity until otherwise directed by the Board.

different bodies with respect to Directors, Officers, Consultants, and Employees
who are neither Directors nor Officers.

            (c)Powers of the Administrator. Subject to Applicable Laws and the
provisions of the Plan (including any other powers given to the Administrator
hereunder), and except as otherwise provided by the Board, the Administrator
shall have the authority, in its discretion:

                (i) to select the Employees, Directors and Consultants to whom
Awards may be granted from time to time hereunder;

                (ii) to determine whether and to what extent Awards are granted

                                       5
<PAGE>   6

                (v) to determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted
hereunder;

                (vi) to establish additional terms, conditions, rules or
procedures to accommodate the rules or laws of applicable foreign jurisdictions
and to afford Grantees favorable treatment under such rules or laws; provided,
however, that no Award shall be granted under any such additional terms,
conditions, rules or procedures with terms or conditions which are inconsistent
with the provisions of the Plan;

                (vii) to amend the terms of any outstanding Award granted under
the Plan, provided that any amendment that would adversely affect the Grantee's
rights under an outstanding Award shall not be made without the Grantee's
written consent;

                (viii) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and
Awards, including without limitation, any notice of award or Award Agreement,
granted pursuant to THE Plan; and

                (ix) to take such other action, not inconsistent with the terms
of the Plan, as the Administrator deems appropriate.

        5. Eligibility. Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted
to Employees, Directors and Consultants. Incentive Stock Options may be granted
only to Employees of the Company, a Parent or a Subsidiary. An Employee,
Director or Consultant who has been granted an Award may, if otherwise eligible,
be granted additional Awards. Awards may be granted to such Employees, Directors
or Consultants who are residing in foreign jurisdictions as the Administrator
may determine from time to time.

        6. Terms and Conditions of Awards.

            (a)Type of Awards. The Administrator is authorized under the Plan to
award any type of arrangement to an Employee, Director or Consultant that is not
inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan and that by its terms involves or
might involve the issuance of (i) Shares, (ii) an Option or similar right with a
fixed or variable price related to the Fair Market Value of the Shares and with
an exercise or conversion privilege related to the passage of time, the
occurrence of one or more events, or the satisfaction of performance criteria or
other conditions, or (iii) any other security with the value derived from the
value of the Shares. Such awards include, without limitation, Options, or sales
or bonuses of Restricted Stock, and an Award may consist of one such security or
benefit, or two (2) or more of them in any combination or alternative.

            (b) Designation of Award. Each Award shall be designated in the
Award Agreement. In the case of an Option, the Option shall be designated as
either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. However,
notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market
Value of Shares subject to Options designated as Incentive Stock Options which
become exercisable for the first time by a Grantee during any calendar year
(under all plans of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000,
such excess

                                       6
<PAGE>   7

Options, to the extent of the Shares covered thereby in excess of the foregoing
limitation, shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. For this purpose,
Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they
were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of
the grant date of the relevant Option.

            (c)Conditions of Award. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the
Administrator shall determine the provisions, terms, and conditions of each
Award including, but not limited to, the Award vesting schedule, repurchase
provisions, rights of first refusal, forfeiture provisions, form of payment
(cash, Shares, or other consideration) upon settlement of the Award, payment
contingencies, and satisfaction of any performance criteria. The performance
criteria established by the Administrator may be based on any one of, or
combination of, increase in share price, earnings per share, total shareholder
return, return on equity, return on assets, return on investment, net operating
income, cash flow, revenue, economic value added, personal management
objectives, or other measure of performance selected by the Administrator.
Partial achievement of the specified criteria may result in a payment or vesting
corresponding to the degree of achievement as specified in the Award Agreement.

            (d)Acquisitions and Other Transactions. The Administrator may issue
Awards under the Plan in settlement, assumption or substitution for, outstanding
awards or obligations to grant future awards in connection with the Company or a
Related Entity acquiring another entity, an interest in another entity or an
additional interest in a Related Entity whether by merger, stock purchase, asset
purchase or other form of transaction.

            (e)Award Exchange Programs. The Administrator may establish one or
more programs under the Plan to permit selected Grantees to exchange an Award
under the Plan for one or more other types of Awards under the Plan on such
terms and conditions as determined by the Administrator from time to time.

            (f)Separate Programs. The Administrator may establish one or more
separate programs under the Plan for the purpose of issuing particular forms of
Awards to one or more classes of Grantees on such terms and conditions as
determined by the Administrator from time to time.

            (g)Early Exercise. The Award Agreement may, but need not, include a
provision whereby the Grantee may elect at any time while an Employee, Director
or Consultant to exercise any part or all of the Award prior to full vesting of
the Award. Any unvested Shares received pursuant to such exercise may be subject
to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or a Related Entity or to any
other restriction the Administrator determines to be appropriate.

            (h)Term of Award. The term of each Award shall be the term stated in
the Award Agreement, provided, however, that the term shall be no more than ten
(10) years from the date of grant thereof. However, in the case of an Incentive
Stock Option granted to a Grantee who, at the time the Option is granted, owns
stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the
Incentive Stock Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant thereof or
such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement.

                                       7

            (i)Transferability of Awards. Non-Qualified Stock Options shall be
transferable (i) to the extent provided in the Award Agreement and in a manner
consistent with Section 260.140.41 of Title 10 of the California Code of
Regulations and (ii) by will, and by the laws of descent and distribution.
Incentive Stock Options and other Awards 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, during the lifetime of
the Grantee, only by the Grantee.

            (j)Time of Granting Awards. The date of grant of an Award shall for
all purposes be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination to
grant such Award, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator.
Notice of the grant determination shall be given to each Employee, Director or
Consultant to whom an Award is so granted within a reasonable time after the
date of such grant.

exercise or purchase price for the Award shall be determined in accordance with
the principles of Section 424(a) of the Code.

            (b)Consideration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the consideration to
be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise or purchase of an Award

Award) which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation
equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Award shall
be exercised (but only to the extent that such exercise of the Award would not
result in an accounting compensation charge with respect to the Shares used to
pay the exercise price unless otherwise determined by the Administrator);

                (v) with respect to Options, if the exercise occurs on or after
the Registration Date, payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance
procedure pursuant to which the Grantee (A) shall provide written instructions
to a Company designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of some or
all of the purchased Shares and remit to the Company,

                                       9
<PAGE>   10

out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to
cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased Shares and (B)
shall provide written directives to the Company to deliver the certificates for
the purchased Shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the
sale transaction; or

                (vi) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

            (c)Taxes. No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Grantee
or other person until such Grantee or other person has made arrangements
acceptable to the Administrator for the satisfaction of any foreign, federal,
state, or local income and employment tax withholding obligations, including,
without limitation, obligations incident to the receipt of Shares or the
disqualifying disposition of Shares received on exercise of an Incentive Stock
Option. Upon exercise of an Award the Company shall withhold or collect from
Grantee an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations.

        8. Exercise of Award.

            (a)Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder.

                (i) Any Award granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such
times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator under the
terms of the Plan and specified in the Award Agreement but in the case of an
Option, in no case at a rate of less than twenty percent (20%) per year over
five (5) years from the date the Option is granted, subject to reasonable
conditions such as continued employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
case of an Option granted to an Officer, Director or Consultant, the Award
Agreement may provide that the Option may become exercisable, subject to
reasonable conditions such as such Officer's, Director's or Consultant's
Continuous Service, at any time or during any period established in the Award
Agreement.

                (ii) An Award 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 Award by the person entitled to exercise the Award and full payment
for the Shares with respect to which the Award is exercised, including, to the
extent selected, use of the broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure to pay
the purchase price as provided in Section 7(b)(v). Until the issuance (as
evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a 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 Shares subject to an Award,
notwithstanding the exercise of an Option or other Award. 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 the Award Agreement
or Section 11(a), below.

            (b) Exercise of Award Following Termination of Continuous Service.
In the event of termination of a Grantee's Continuous Service for any reason
other than Disability or death (but not in the event of a Grantee's change of
status from Employee to Consultant or from Consultant to Employee), such Grantee
may, but only during the Post-Termination Exercise Period (but in no event later
than the expiration date of the term of such Award as set forth in the

                                       10
<PAGE>   11

Award Agreement), exercise the Award to the extent that the Grantee was entitled
to exercise it at the date of such termination or to such other extent as may be
determined by the Administrator. The Grantee's Award Agreement may provide that
upon the termination of the Grantee's Continuous Service for Cause, the
Grantee's right to exercise the Award shall terminate concurrently with the
termination of Grantee's Continuous Service. In the event of a Grantee's change
of status from Employee to Consultant, an Employee's Incentive Stock Option
shall convert automatically to a Non-Qualified Stock Option on the day three (3)
months and one day following such change of status. To the extent that the
Grantee is not entitled to exercise the Award at the date of termination, or if
the Grantee does not exercise such Award to the extent so entitled within the
Post-Termination Exercise Period, the Award shall terminate.

            (c)Disability of Grantee. In the event of termination of a Grantee's
Continuous Service as a result of his or her Disability, Grantee may, but only
within twelve (12) months from the date of such termination (and in no event
later than the expiration date of the term of such Award as set forth in the
Award Agreement), exercise the Award to the extent that the Grantee was
otherwise entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination; provided,
however, that if such Disability is not a "disability" as such term is defined
in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option such
Incentive Stock Option shall automatically convert to a Non-Qualified Stock
Option on the day three (3) months and one day following such termination. To
the extent that the Grantee is not entitled to exercise the Award at the date of
termination, or if Grantee does not exercise such Award to the extent so
entitled within the time specified herein, the Award shall terminate.

            (d)Death of Grantee. In the event of a termination of the Grantee's
Continuous Service as a result of his or her death, or in the event of the death
of the Grantee during the Post-Termination Exercise Period or during the twelve
(12) month period following the Grantee's termination of Continuous Service as a
result of his or her Disability, the Grantee's estate or a person who acquired
the right to exercise the Award by bequest or inheritance may exercise the
Award, but only to the extent that the Grantee was entitled to exercise the
Award as of the date of termination, within twelve (12) months from the date of
death (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Award as
set forth in the Award Agreement). To the extent that, at the time of death, the
Grantee was not entitled to exercise the Award, or if the Grantee's estate or a
person who acquired the right to exercise the Award by bequest or inheritance
does not exercise such Award to the extent so entitled within the time specified
herein, the Award shall terminate.

        9. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

            (a)Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award
unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares
pursuant thereto shall comply with all Applicable Laws, and shall be further
subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such
compliance.

            (b) As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may
require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time of
any such exercise that the

                                       11
<PAGE>   12

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 any Applicable Laws.

        10.Repurchase Rights. If the provisions of an Award Agreement grant to
the Company the right to repurchase Shares upon termination of the Grantee's
Continuous Service, the Award Agreement shall (or may, with respect to Awards
granted or issued to Officers, Directors or Consultants) provide that:

            (a)the right to repurchase must be exercised, if at all, within
ninety (90) days of the termination of the Grantee's Continuous Service (or in
the case of Shares issued upon exercise of Awards after the date of termination
of the Grantee's Continuous Service, within ninety (90) days after the date of
the Award exercise);

            (b)the consideration payable for the Shares upon exercise of such
repurchase right shall be made in cash or by cancellation of purchase money
indebtedness within the ninety (90) day periods specified in Section 10(a);

            (c)the amount of such consideration shall (i) be equal to the
original purchase price paid by Grantee for each such Share; provided, that the
right to repurchase such Shares at the original purchase price shall lapse at
the rate of at least twenty percent (20%) of the Shares subject to the Award per
year over five (5) years from the date the Award is granted (without respect to
the date the Award was exercised or became exercisable), and (ii) with respect
to Shares, other than Shares subject to repurchase at the original purchase
price pursuant to clause (i) above, not less than the Fair Market Value of the
Shares to be repurchased on the date of termination of Grantee's Continuous
Service; and

            (d)the right to repurchase Shares, other than the right to
repurchase Shares at the original purchase price pursuant to clause (i) of
Section 10(c), shall terminate on the Registration Date.

        11.Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization or Corporate Transaction.

            (a) Adjustments upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any
required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered
by each outstanding Award, and the number of Shares which have been authorized
for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or
which have been returned to the Plan, the exercise or purchase price of each
such outstanding Award, as well as any other terms that the Administrator
determines require adjustment shall be proportionately adjusted for (i) any
increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock
split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of
the Shares, or similar transaction affecting the Shares, (ii) any other increase
or decrease in the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of
consideration by the Company, or (iii) as the Administrator may determine in its
discretion, any other transaction with respect to Common Stock to which Section
424(a) of the Code applies or a similar transaction; provided, however that
conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to
have been "effected without receipt of consideration." Such

                                       12
<PAGE>   13

adjustment shall be made by the Administrator and its determination shall be
final, binding and conclusive. Except as the Administrator determines, 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 hereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares
subject to an Award.

            (b)Corporate Transaction.

                (i) Termination of Award if Not Assumed. In the event of a
Corporate Transaction, each Award will terminate upon the consummation of the
Corporate Transaction, unless the Award is assumed by the successor corporation
or Parent thereof in connection with the Corporate Transaction.

                (ii) Acceleration of Award Upon Corporate Transaction. Except as
provided otherwise in an individual Award Agreement, in the event of a Corporate
Transaction each Award which is at the time outstanding under the Plan shall
automatically become fully vested and exercisable and be released from any
restrictions on transfer (other than transfer restrictions applicable to
Options) and repurchase or forfeiture rights, immediately prior to the specified
effective date of such Corporate Transaction, for all of the Shares at the time
represented by such Award if the Award is not assumed by the successor
corporation or the Parent thereof in connection with the Corporate Transaction.
For the purposes of accelerating the vesting and the release of restrictions
applicable to Awards pursuant to this subsection (but not for purposes of
termination of such Awards), the Award shall be considered assumed if, in
connection with the Corporate Transaction, the Award is replaced with a
comparable Award with respect to shares of capital stock of the successor
corporation or Parent thereof or is replaced with a cash incentive program of
the successor corporation or Parent thereof which preserves the compensation
element of such Award existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction and
provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same vesting schedule
applicable to such Award. The determination of Award comparability above shall
be made by the Administrator and its determination shall be final, binding and
conclusive.

        12.Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon
the earlier to occur of its adoption by the Board or its approval by the
shareholders of the Company. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10)
years unless sooner terminated. Subject to Section 17, below, and Applicable
Laws, Awards may be granted under the Plan upon its becoming effective.

        13.Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan.

            (a)The Board may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan.
To the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws, the Company shall obtain
shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree
as required.

            (b)No Award may be granted during any suspension of the Plan or
after termination of the Plan.

                                       13
<PAGE>   14

            (c)Any amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan (including
termination of the Plan under Section 12, above) shall not affect Awards already
granted, and such Awards shall remain in full force and effect as if the Plan
had not been amended, suspended or terminated, unless mutually agreed otherwise
between the Grantee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing
and signed by the Grantee and the Company.

        14.Reservation of Shares.

            (a)The Company, during the term of the Plan, will at all times
reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to
satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

            (b)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.

        15.No Effect on Terms of Employment/Consulting Relationship. The Plan
shall not confer upon any Grantee any right with respect to the Grantee's
Continuous Service, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or
the Company's right to terminate the Grantee's Continuous Service at any time,
with or without cause, and with or without notice. The Company's ability to
terminate the employment of a Grantee who is employed at will is in no way
affected by its determination that the Grantee's Continuous Service has been
terminated for Cause for the purposes of this Plan.

        16.No Effect on Retirement and Other Benefit Plans. Except as
specifically provided in a retirement or other benefit plan of the Company or a
Related Entity, Awards shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of
computing benefits or contributions under any retirement plan of the Company or
a Related Entity, and shall not affect any benefits under any other benefit plan
of any kind or any benefit plan subsequently instituted under which the
availability or amount of benefits is related to level of compensation. The Plan
is not a "Retirement Plan" or "Welfare Plan" under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

        17.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 Laws. Any Award exercised
before shareholder approval is obtained shall be rescinded if shareholder
approval is not obtained within the time prescribed, and Shares issued on the
exercise of any such Award shall not be counted in determining whether
shareholder approval is obtained.

        18.Information to Grantees. The Company shall provide to each Grantee,
during the period for which such Grantee has one or more Awards outstanding,
copies of financial statements at least annually.

Administrator shall determine the provisions, terms, and conditions of each
Award including, but not limited to, the Award vesting schedule, repurchase
provisions, rights of first refusal, forfeiture provisions, form of payment
(cash, Shares, or other consideration) upon settlement of the Award, payment
contingencies, and satisfaction of any performance criteria. The performance
criteria established by the Administrator may be based on any one of, or
combination of, increase in share price, earnings per share, total shareholder
return, return on equity, return on assets, return on investment, net operating
income, cash flow, revenue, economic value added, personal management
objectives, or other measure of performance selected by the Administrator.
Partial achievement of the specified criteria may result in a payment or vesting
corresponding to the degree of achievement as specified in the Award Agreement.

            (d)Acquisitions and Other Transactions. The Administrator may issue
Awards under the Plan in settlement, assumption or substitution for, outstanding
awards or obligations to grant future awards in connection with the Company or a
Related Entity acquiring another entity, an interest in another entity or an
additional interest in a Related Entity whether by merger, stock purchase, asset
purchase or other form of transaction.

            (e)Award Exchange Programs. The Administrator may establish one or
more programs under the Plan to permit selected Grantees to exchange an Award
under the Plan for one or more other types of Awards under the Plan on such
terms and conditions as determined by the Administrator from time to time.

            (f)Separate Programs. The Administrator may establish one or more
separate programs under the Plan for the purpose of issuing particular forms of
Awards to one or more classes of Grantees on such terms and conditions as
determined by the Administrator from time to time.

            (g)Early Exercise. The Award Agreement may, but need not, include a
provision whereby the Grantee may elect at any time while an Employee, Director
or Consultant to exercise any part or all of the Award prior to full vesting of
the Award. Any unvested Shares received pursuant to such exercise may be subject
to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or a Related Entity or to any
other restriction the Administrator determines to be appropriate.

            (h)Term of Award. The term of each Award shall be the term stated in
the Award Agreement, provided, however, that the term shall be no more than ten
(10) years from the date of grant thereof.

            (i)Transferability of Awards. Non-Qualified Stock Options shall be
transferable to the extent provided in the Award Agreement.

            (j)Time of Granting Awards. The date of grant of an Award shall for
all purposes be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination to
grant such Award, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator.
Notice of the grant determination shall be given to each Employee, Director or
Consultant to whom an Award is so granted within a reasonable time after the
date of such grant.

        7. Award Exercise or Purchase Price, Consideration and Taxes.

            (a)Exercise or Purchase Price. The exercise or purchase price, if
any, for an Award shall be determined by the Administrator. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 7(a), in the case of an Award issued
pursuant to Section 6(d), above, the exercise or purchase price for the Award
shall be determined in accordance with the principles of Section 424(a) of the
Code.

            (b)Consideration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the consideration to
be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise or purchase of an Award
including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator. In
addition to any other types of consideration the Administrator may determine,
the Administrator is authorized to accept as consideration for Shares issued
under the Plan the following and, provided further, that the portion of the
Exercise Price equal to the par value of the Shares must be paid in cash or
other legal consideration permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law:

                (i) cash;

                                       7
<PAGE>   8

                (ii) check;

                (iii) delivery of Grantee's promissory note with such recourse,
interest, security, and redemption provisions as the Administrator determines as
appropriate;

                (iv) if the exercise or purchase occurs on or after the
Registration Date, surrender of Shares or delivery of a properly executed form
of attestation of ownership of Shares as the Administrator may require
(including withholding of Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of the
Award) which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation
equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Award shall
be exercised (but only to the extent that such exercise of the Award would not
result in an accounting compensation charge with respect to the Shares used to
pay the exercise price unless otherwise determined by the Administrator);

                (v) with respect to Options, if the exercise occurs on or after
the Registration Date, payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance
procedure pursuant to which the Grantee (A) shall provide written instructions
to a Company designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of some or
all of the purchased Shares and remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds
available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate
exercise price payable for the purchased Shares and (B) shall provide written
directives to the Company to deliver the certificates for the purchased Shares
directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction; or

                (vi) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

            (c)Taxes. No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Grantee
or other person until such Grantee or other person has made arrangements
acceptable to the Administrator for the satisfaction of any foreign, federal,
state, or local income and employment tax withholding obligations, including,
without limitation, obligations incident to the receipt of Shares. Upon exercise
of an Award the Company shall withhold or collect from Grantee an amount
sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations.

        8. Exercise of Award.

            (a)Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder.

                (i) Any Award granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such
times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator under the
terms of the Plan and specified in the Award Agreement.

                (ii) An Award 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 Award by the person entitled to exercise the Award and full payment
for the Shares with respect to which the Award is exercised, including, to the
extent selected, use of the broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure to pay
the purchase price as provided in Section 7(b)(v). Until the issuance (as
evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly
authorized transfer

                                       8
<PAGE>   9

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 Shares subject to an Award, notwithstanding the exercise of an
Option or other Award. 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 the Award Agreement or Section 11(a), below.

            (b)Exercise of Award Following Termination of Continuous Service. In
the event of termination of a Grantee's Continuous Service for any reason other
than Disability or death (but not in the event of a Grantee's change of status
from Employee to Consultant or from Consultant to Employee), such Grantee may,
but only during the Post-Termination Exercise Period (but in no event later than
the expiration date of the term of such Award as set forth in the Award
Agreement), exercise the Award to the extent that the Grantee was entitled to
exercise it at the date of such termination or to such other extent as may be
determined by the Administrator. The Grantee's Award Agreement may provide that
upon the termination of the Grantee's Continuous Service for Cause, the
Grantee's right to exercise the Award shall terminate concurrently with the
termination of Grantee's Continuous Service. To the extent that the Grantee is
not entitled to exercise the Award at the date of termination, or if the Grantee
does not exercise such Award to the extent so entitled within the
Post-Termination Exercise Period, the Award shall terminate.

            (c)Disability of Grantee. In the event of termination of a Grantee's
Continuous Service as a result of his or her Disability, Grantee may, but only
within twelve (12) months from the date of such termination (and in no event
later than the expiration date of the term of such Award as set forth in the
Award Agreement), exercise the Award to the extent that the Grantee was
otherwise entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination. To the extent
that the Grantee is not entitled to exercise the Award at the date of
termination, or if Grantee does not exercise such Award to the extent so
entitled within the time specified herein, the Award shall terminate.

            (d)Death of Grantee. In the event of a termination of the Grantee's
Continuous Service as a result of his or her death, or in the event of the death
of the Grantee during the Post-Termination Exercise Period or during the twelve
(12) month period following the Grantee's termination of Continuous Service as a
result of his or her Disability, the Grantee's estate or a person who acquired
the right to exercise the Award by bequest or inheritance may exercise the
Award, but only to the extent that the Grantee was entitled to exercise the
Award as of the date of termination, within twelve (12) months from the date of
death (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Award as
set forth in the Award Agreement). To the extent that, at the time of death, the
Grantee was not entitled to exercise the Award, or if the Grantee's estate or a
person who acquired the right to exercise the Award by bequest or inheritance
does not exercise such Award to the extent so entitled within the time specified
herein, the Award shall terminate.

        9. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

                                       9
<PAGE>   10

            (a)Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award
unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares
pursuant thereto shall comply with all Applicable Laws, and shall be further
subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such
compliance.

            (b)As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may
require the person exercising such Award 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 any
Applicable Laws.

        10.Repurchase Rights. If the provisions of an Award Agreement, the
Company may grant to the Company the right to repurchase Shares upon termination
of the Grantee's Continuous Service.

        11.Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization or Corporate Transaction.

            (a)Adjustments upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any
required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered
by each outstanding Award, and the number of Shares which have been authorized
for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or
which have been returned to the Plan, the exercise or purchase price of each
such outstanding Award, as well as any other terms that the Administrator
determines require adjustment shall be proportionately adjusted for (i) any
increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock
split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of
the Shares, or similar transaction affecting the Shares, (ii) any other increase
or decrease in the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of
consideration by the Company, or (iii) as the Administrator may determine in its
discretion, any other transaction with respect to Common Stock to which Section
424(a) of the Code applies or a similar transaction; 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 Administrator and its determination shall be final, binding and
conclusive. Except as the Administrator determines, 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 hereof shall be made
with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an Award.

            (b)Corporate Transaction.

                (i) Termination of Award if Not Assumed. In the event of a
Corporate Transaction, each Award will terminate upon the consummation of the
Corporate Transaction, unless the Award is assumed by the successor corporation
or Parent thereof in connection with the Corporate Transaction.

                (ii) Acceleration of Award Upon Corporate Transaction. Except as
provided otherwise in an individual Award Agreement, in the event of a Corporate
Transaction each Award which is at the time outstanding under the Plan shall
automatically become fully

                                       10
<PAGE>   11

vested and exercisable and be released from any restrictions on transfer (other
than transfer restrictions applicable to Options) and repurchase or forfeiture
rights, immediately prior to the specified effective date of such Corporate
Transaction, for all of the Shares at the time represented by such Award if the
Award is not assumed by the successor corporation or the Parent thereof in
connection with the Corporate Transaction. For the purposes of accelerating the
vesting and the release of restrictions applicable to Awards pursuant to this
subsection (but not for purposes of termination of such Awards), the Award shall
be considered assumed if, in connection with the Corporate Transaction, the
Award is replaced with a comparable Award with respect to shares of capital
stock of the successor corporation or Parent thereof or is replaced with a cash
incentive program of the successor corporation or Parent thereof which preserves
the compensation element of such Award existing at the time of the Corporate
Transaction and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same
vesting schedule applicable to such Award. The determination of Award
comparability above shall be made by the Administrator and its determination
shall be final, binding and conclusive.

        12.Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon
its adoption by the Board. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10)
years unless sooner terminated. Awards may be granted under the Plan upon its
becoming effective.

        13.Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan.

            (a)The Board may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan.
To the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws, the Company shall obtain
shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree
as required.

            (b)No Award may be granted during any suspension of the Plan or
after termination of the Plan.

            (c)Any amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan (including
termination of the Plan under Section 12, above) shall not affect Awards already
granted, and such Awards shall remain in full force and effect as if the Plan
had not been amended, suspended or terminated, unless mutually agreed otherwise
between the Grantee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing
and signed by the Grantee and the Company.

        14.Reservation of Shares.

            (a)The Company, during the term of the Plan, will at all times
reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to
satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

            (b)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.

                                       11
<PAGE>   12

        15.No Effect on Terms of Employment/Consulting Relationship. The Plan
shall not confer upon any Grantee any right with respect to the Grantee's
Continuous Service, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or
the Company's right to terminate the Grantee's Continuous Service at any time,
with or without cause, and with or without notice. The Company's ability to
terminate the employment of a Grantee who is employed at will is in no way
affected by its determination that the Grantee's Continuous Service has been
terminated for Cause for the purposes of this Plan.

        16.No Effect on Retirement and Other Benefit Plans. Except as
specifically provided in a retirement or other benefit plan of the Company or a
Related Entity, Awards shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of
computing benefits or contributions under any retirement plan of the Company or
a Related Entity, and shall not affect any benefits under any other benefit plan
of any kind or any benefit plan subsequently instituted under which the
availability or amount of benefits is related to level of compensation. The Plan
is not a "Retirement Plan" or "Welfare Plan" under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
