PLM INTERNATIONAL, INC.

                 DIRECTORS' 2000 NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLAN

         1.       Purpose

         The purpose of this Directors' 2000 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (the
"Plan") is to motivate and reward those  directors  of PLM  International,  Inc.
(the  "Company")  who are not  employees  of the  Company  or of any  parent  or
subsidiary of the Company eligible for  participation in the PLM  International,
Inc. 1998 Management Stock  Compensation Plan, by granting each such director on
February 1, 2000,  an option to purchase  8,000 shares of the  Company's  common
stock, and thereafter, each February 1, beginning February 1, 2001, an option to
purchase 10,000 shares of the Company's common stock, all such grants subject to
paragraph  5  below.  This  Plan  is  intended  as an  addition  to and not as a
replacement of the Directors' 1995 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan.

         2.       Effective Date; Term of Plan; Prior Plan

                  (a) This Plan was adopted by the Company's  Board of Directors
(the "Board") on February 1, 2000,  effective as of February 1, 2000. No options
shall be granted after termination of the Plan, but termination shall not affect
rights and obligations under then-outstanding options.

                  (b) If  applicable,  the benefits under this Plan are intended
as an addition to, not as a replacement  of, the  Directors'  1995  Nonqualified
Stock  Option  Plan  which  plan and  options  remain in full  force and  effect
according to the terms therein.

         3.       Shares Subject to Plan

         Subject  to the other  provisions  of this  Plan,  the total  number of
shares with  respect to which  options  may be granted  under this Plan shall be
70,000 shares of the Company's common stock,  $.01 par value ("Common  Shares");
provided,  however,  that such number and kind of shares shall be  appropriately
adjusted in accordance with paragraph 11(b).  Shares delivered to an optionee by
the  Company  upon  exercise  of options may be  previously  unissued  shares or
repurchased  shares.  All shares issued upon the exercise of any option  granted
under  this  Plan,   whatever  their  source,   shall  be  counted  against  the
70,000-share limit,  provided,  however,  options which lapse or are surrendered
pursuant  to the terms of this Plan shall be  available  for  reissue  under the
Plan.

         4.       Administration

                  (a)      Board to Administer.  This Plan shall be administered
by the Board.

<PAGE>

                  (b) Voting.  A majority of the Board shall constitute a quorum
for the purposes of this Plan. Provided a quorum is present,  the Board may take
action by  consent  of a  majority  of its  disinterested  members  present at a
meeting.  Meetings may be held telephonically as long as all parties are able to
hear one another,  and a member of the Board shall be "present"  for purposes of
the  preceding  sentence  if  he or  she  is in  simultaneous  communication  by
telephone with the other members,  provided, again, that all parties are able to
hear one another.

                  (c) Tasks of Board in Administering Plan. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, and unless stated elsewhere in this Plan, the Board
shall  have full and final  authority,  in its  discretion,  but  subject to the
express  provisions  of this Plan,  to: (i)  authorize  any person to execute an
option  agreement with respect to an option;  (ii) interpret the Plan; and (iii)
make  all  other   determinations   deemed   necessary  or  advisable   for  the
administration of the Plan.

                  (d) Reports.  Unless otherwise decided by the Board, the Board
shall cause  written  summaries  of stock  option  grants  under this Plan to be
maintained  as  follows:  (i) all  grants  shall  be  summarized  into a  single
schedule;  (ii)  annually  within 60 days of the end of the calendar  year,  all
outstanding  exercised  options shall be summarized  in a single  schedule;  and
(iii) at any additional time,  within the Board's  discretion,  all stock option
grants and exercises shall be summarized.

                  (e)  Delegation.   The  Board  may  delegate  nondiscretionary
administrative  duties to such employees of the Company as it deems proper.  The
Board may also make whatever rules and regulations it deems useful to administer
the Plan. Any decision or action of the Board in connection with the Plan or any
options  granted,  or  shares  purchased,  under  the  Plan,  shall be final and
binding.

         5.       Eligibility

                  (a) Only Outside Directors May Receive Options.  Stock options
shall be granted  under  this Plan only to persons  who at the time of grant are
directors  of the Company but not  employees  of the Company or of any parent or
subsidiary of the Company.

                  (b)   All   Such   Directors   to   Receive   Options   on   a
Non-discretionary  Basis.  Each  director of the  Company who is eligible  under
paragraph 5(a) above shall be granted on February 1, 2000, an option to purchase
8,000 Common Shares.  Thereafter,  each February 1, beginning  February 1, 2001,
each director of the Company who is eligible under paragraph 5(a) above shall be
granted an option to purchase  10,000  Common  Shares.  If on the grant date the
number of shares  available for grant under this Plan is insufficient to provide
each eligible  director an option to purchase  10,000  shares,  options shall be
granted pro rata to each  eligible  director to the extent  shares are available
under the Plan.

         6.       Grant of Options and Limitations

                  (a) General Rules.  As soon as practical after the date of the
grant of each option,  the  optionee and the Company  shall enter into a written
agreement (the "Option Agreement") that shall specify the date of the grant, the
number of shares are  covered by the  option,  the option  price,  and the other
terms and conditions of the option grant.

                  (b) Not Incentive  Stock Options.  All of the options  granted
under this Plan shall be  nonqualified  options not qualifying for the benefits,
and not subject to the  requirements,  of incentive stock options under Sections
422A, 421(a), and 425 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

         7.       Terms and Conditions of Option.

                  Options  granted  under  this  Plan  shall be  subject  to the
following  terms  and  conditions,  and  to  any  other  terms  and  conditions,
consistent with this Plan, that the Board imposes when the option is granted:

                  (a) Time of Exercise. Options shall be exercisable as follows:

         If the optionee continues
         to be a director of the
         Company or of a parent or
         subsidiary of the Company                   With respect to each
         on such date, the option                    grant of shares as
         shall become exercisable on                 shown below

         first anniversary of grant date             1/3 of shares granted

         second anniversary of grant date            1/3 of shares granted

         third anniversary of grant date             1/3 of shares granted

                  (b)  Price.  The  price  to be paid by the  option-holder  for
shares  issued  pursuant to the exercise of any option  granted  under this Plan
(the  "Exercise  Price")  shall be the closing  price of the Common Stock on the
American  Stock  Exchange or other  national stock exchange as of the date as of
which the  option is  granted,  which  price  shall be  specified  in the Option
Agreement.

                  (c) Option Term. The term of any option granted under the Plan
shall be from the date of grant through a date no later than January 31, 2010.

                  (d) Method of  Exercise.  Pursuant  to the terms of any Option
Agreement,  options may be exercised, in whole or in part, from time to time, by
written  notice from the  optionee  to the Company  stating the number of shares
being purchased and accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price for the
shares.  Payment  may be in cash,  by check,  or by  delivery  to the Company of
Common Shares  previously  owned by the optionee  (duly endorsed in favor of the
Company or accompanied  by a duly endorsed stock power),  or by a combination of
the above. (Any Common Share used by the optionee to exercise an option shall be
valued  at  fair  market  value  as of the  date  of  exercise  of the  option.)
Notwithstanding  anything in this Plan to the contrary, in the event an optionee
seeks to exercise  options  under the Plan,  the Company and  optionee may agree
that the Company  shall pay to the option  holder an amount of cash equal to the
number of Common Shares as to which exercise was sought multiplied by the excess
of (i) the market  price of Common  Shares at close of business on the day prior
to the date of such exercise over (ii) the Exercise Price, whereupon such option
shall cease to be  exercisable  as to all Common Shares as to which exercise was
sought.  This provision shall be set forth in any Option Agreement  entered into
between the Company and the optionee.

                  (e)  Nontransferability  of Options.  An option  granted under
this Plan shall not be transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent
and  distribution,  and an option may be  exercised,  during the lifetime of the
holder of the  option,  only by such  holder.  More  particularly,  but  without
limiting  the  generality  of the  foregoing,  an  option  may not be  assigned,
transferred  (except  as  provided  in  the  preceding  sentence),  pledged,  or
hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), and will not
be  subject  to  execution,   attachment  or  similar  process.   Any  attempted
assignment,  transfer, pledge, hypothecation, or other disposition of any option
contrary  to the  provisions  of this Plan,  and any levy of any  attachment  or
similar  process upon an option,  will be null and void,  and otherwise  without
effect,  and the Board may, in its sole  discretion,  upon the  happening of any
such event, terminate such option forthwith.

                  (f) Optionee Not a  Shareholder  Until  Exercise.  An optionee
shall not have any of the  rights of a  shareholder  with  respect to the shares
covered by his or her option  shall have been  exercised  and such shares  shall
have been issued to him or her (as  evidenced  by the  appropriate  entry on the
books of a duly  authorized  transfer  agent  of the  Company)  pursuant  to the
exercise of the option.

                  (g) Exercise  After  Ceasing to be a Director.  If an optionee
ceases  to be  director  of the  Company,  or of a parent or  subsidiary  of the
Company,  for any reason  other than death,  options held by the optionee at the
date of such  ceasing to be a director  may,  but only if they were  exercisable
immediately before such ceasing to be a director,  be exercised,  in whole or in
part,  within six months (12 months if the  optionee  ceases to be a director of
the Company or of any parent or subsidiary of the Company due to the  optionee's
permanent and total disability) after the date of such ceasing to be a director;
provided,  however,  that  in no case  may an  option  be  exercised  after  its
Expiration  Date,  if  that  occurs  first.  An  optionee  shall  be  considered
permanently  and  totally  disabled  if he or she is  unable  to  engage  in any
substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or
mental  impairment  that can be expect to result in death, or that has lasted or
can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months,  but
in either case only as evidenced by the optionee's  receipt of disability  under
Social Security.

                  (h) Exercise Upon Death.  If an optionee dies while a director
of the Company or of a parent or subsidiary of the Company, or within the period
that the  option  remains  exercisable  after  ceasing to be a  director,  those
options held by the optionee at the date of his or her death that, at such date,
were immediately exercisable by him or her, may be exercised in whole or in part
by the optionee's personal representative or by the person to whom the option is
transferred by will or the laws of descent or distribution, at any time prior to
their  Expiration  Date or, if  earlier,  within one year after the death of the
optionee.

                  (i)  Termination.  Any  options  that cease to be  exercisable
under  paragraphs  (g) or (h) of this paragraph 7 will terminate as of that date
that the options are no longer exercisable.

         8.       Compliance with Securities Laws

         The  Company  shall not be  obligated  to offer or sell any shares upon
exercise of an option unless the shares are at that time effectively  registered
or exempt from registration  under the federal securities laws and the offer and
sale of the shares are otherwise in compliance  with all  applicable  securities
laws, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the
Securities  Exchange  Act of  1934,  as  amended,  and  the  General  Rules  and
Regulations  promulgated  thereunder.  The  offer  or  sale of any  shares  upon
exercise of an option  shall  further be subject to  approval  by the  Company's
counsel with respect to such compliance. The Company shall have no obligation to
register under the federal  securities laws any shares acquired upon exercise of
any option  granted  under this Plan,  or to take any other steps  necessary  to
enable  shares to be offered and sold under  federal or other  securities  laws.
Prior to the  transfer by the Company of any shares upon the  exercise of all or
any portion of an option, an optionee may be required to furnish representations
or undertakings  deemed  appropriate by the Company to enable the offer and sale
of the option shares, or subsequent  transfers of any interest in the shares, to
comply with applicable  securities laws. Stock  certificates  evidencing  shares
acquired  under this Plan or upon  exercise of options  granted  under this Plan
shall bear any legend  required by, or useful for  compliance  with,  applicable
securities laws, this Plan, or the Option Agreement.

         9.       Restrictions on Shares

                  (a)  Financial  Covenants.  The Company may be precluded  from
paying  dividends  on shares  issued with  respect to the exercise of any option
granted under this Plan by the terms of financial covenants with any person that
has purchased  preferred  equity or debt  securities of, or loaned money to, the
Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company.

                  (b)  Legending  Share  Certificates.  In order to enforce  the
restrictions  imposed  upon  shares  hereunder,  the Board may cause a legend or
legends to be placed on any  certificates  representing  shares  issued upon the
exercise of any reference to the restriction  against sale of the shares for any
period of time as may be required by an  applicable  law or  regulation.  If any
restriction with respect to which a legend was placed on any certificate  ceases
to apply to shares  represented  by such  certificate,  the owner of the  shares
represented by such certificate may require the Company to cause the issuance of
a new certificate not bearing the legend.

                  (c)  Additional  Restrictions.  Additionally,  the  Board  may
impose  restrictions  under the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  under the
requirements  of any stock  exchange upon which the shares or shares of the same
class  are  then  listed,  and  under  any blue  sky or  other  securities  laws
applicable to such shares.

         10.      Use of Proceeds

         Proceeds  realized  pursuant to the exercise of options  granted  under
this Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company.

         11.      Changes in Capital Structure

                  (a) No Impediment to Corporate Transactions.  The existence of
outstanding  shares subject to options  granted under this Plan shall not affect
the Company's right to effect adjustments,  recapitalizations,  reorganizations,
or  other  changes  in its or  any  other  corporation's  capital  structure  or
business,  any  merger or  consolidation,  any  issuance  of bonds,  debentures,
preferred or prior  preference  stock ahead of or affecting  Common Shares,  the
dissolution or liquidation of the Company's or any other corporation's assets or
business,  or any other corporate act,  whether similar to the events  described
above or otherwise.

                  (b)  Adjustments.  If the outstanding  shares of Common Shares
are  increased or  decreased in number,  or changed  into,  or exchanged  for, a
different  number or kind of securities of the Company or any other  corporation
by reason of a recapitalization,  reclassification,  stock split, combination of
shares,  stock dividend or other event,  the number and kind of securities  that
may be granted  under this Plan or with respect to which  options may be granted
under this  Plan,  the number  and kind of  securities  as to which  outstanding
options may be exercised,  and/or the option price at which outstanding  options
may be exercised, will be adjusted by the Board.

         12.      Definition of Parent and Subsidiary

         For the purposes of this Plan, a  corporation  shall be a parent of the
Company  only if (i) it is an  unbroken  chain or  corporations  ending with the
Company,  and  (ii)  at  the  time  of  granting  of  the  option,  each  of the
corporations in the chain other than the last  corporation owns stock possessing
50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock in one of
the other corporations in such chain.

         13.      No Representations

         Neither the Company nor the Board shall make any representations to any
optionee or grantee concerning the specific legal or tax effects surrounding the
grant or exercise of options to such grantee or  optionee,  it being a condition
of each  optionee's  right to  exercise  any option that said  optionee  shall e
subject to all applicable federal and state laws and regulations.

         14.      Limitation on Right of Action

         Any and all  rights of  action by the  Company  or any  shareholder  or
shareholders of the Company against any past,  present, or future members of the
Board, or against any past or present employee,  arising out of or in connection
with the Plan or any act or omission related  thereto,  shall be limited to acts
or omissions only that are the result of gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Any such right of action shall  terminate and forever be barred unless action is
brought  within one year of the time of the  occurrence  of the act or  omission
upon which liability is claimed.<PAGE>

Section 4 shall commence anew. In the event that CZ does not notify USI of
acceptance or failure to meet specifications of a Deliverable within 15 business
days after its receipt of such Deliverable, USI shall notify CZ (both via
telephone and via at least one form of the appropriate notice methods set forth
herein) that 15 business days have elapsed from delivery and that USI has not
received notice of acceptance or rejection of the Deliverables. In the vent that
CZ does not notify USI of acceptance or rejection within 15 business days of
such second notice, the underlying Deliverable shall be deemed accepted.

5.0      Title to Property

         5.1 Property of USI. USI shall retain ownership of its Preexisting
Technology. CZ agrees that it will not, directly or through others, disassemble,
reverse engineer or decompile property of USI, or otherwise attempt to discover
any portion of the source code or trade secrets which are part of the USI
Preexisting Technology.

         5.2      Property of CZ.

                (a) All materials provided to USI by or through CZ, including
but not limited to al artwork, screen presentations, drawings, pictorial works,
motion pictures, audiovisual works, images, text and displays viewable on any
internet site, shall be and remain the property of CZ.

                (b) CZ shall own upon their creation all right and title to, and
interest in and to, all Work, Deliverables and Results and Proceeds, and all
associated Intellectual Property Rights, to use in any language and in any
medium whether now existing or developed in the future, throughout the universe
in perpetuity, regardless of any close-out or prior termination of this
Agreement, and USI agrees to promptly disclose and furnish all Work,
Deliverables and Results and Proceeds to CZ. To the extent that the Work,
Deliverables and/or Results and Proceeds include copyrightable materials or
designs, they shall be deemed "works for hire" for CZ under all applicable
copyright laws (including the United States Copyright Act) with CZ as the
author, creator, or inventor upon creation of these materials. CZ shall own all
rights pertaining to the Work, Deliverables and Results and Proceeds as "works
for hire" and CZ shall have the right to apply for and obtain in its name or in
the name of its designee(s) all copyrights and copyright renewals and any other
protections in connection with the protection of these copyrights. To the extent
that any Work, Deliverables and/or Results and Proceeds (including any
patentable inventions) do not constitute "works for hire," USI expressly assigns
and agrees to assign CZ, without separate compensation, all right, title and
interest in and to such Work, Deliverables and/or Results and Proceeds and all
associated Intellectual Property Rights, for CZ to use, in its sole discretion,
in any language and in any medium whether now existing or developed in the
future, throughout the universe in perpetuity. USI acknowledges that as between
USI and CZ, CZ has the exclusive right to any and all Intellectual Property
Rights associated with any Work, Deliverables and Results and Proceeds
conceived, developed and/or produced by USI under this Agreement. USI agrees
that it will communicate to CZ any facts known to USI respecting the Work,
Deliverables and Results and Proceeds and any associated Intellectual Property
<PAGE>

Rights, testify in any legal proceedings when called upon by CZ, sign all lawful
papers considered by CZ as expedient to vest in it the legal title being
conveyed (including, without limitation, patent applications and declarations,
if applicable) or for the filing and prosecution of all copyrights and other
Intellectual Property Rights, United States and foreign, and otherwise
reasonably cooperate with and assist CZ and its successors and Assigns in
obtaining full copyright and other Intellectual Property Right protection for
any Work, Results and Proceeds and Deliverables, and in enforcing proper
protection under these Intellectual Property Rights, but in every instance at
CZ's expense.

         5.3 License to CZ. In the event that any of the Results and Proceeds,
Work or Deliverables developed under this agreement are improvements to, or rely
upon for their exploitation, and USI Preexisting Technology, whether or not
identified by USI, USI hereby grants to CZ, its subsidiaries and Affiliates and
its and their successors and assigns, as applicable, an irrevocable, fully-paid
and non-assessable, royalty-free, nonexclusive, worldwide right and license to
use, execute, reproduce, display, perform, distribute internally and externally,
sell copies of, and, unless expressly limited as disclosed pursuant to Section
5.4, below, prepare derivative works of the Preexisting Technology in
conjunction with the work, Deliverables and Results and Proceeds developed under
this Agreement, without cost beyond any payments otherwise required by this
Agreement. All rights granted and obligations incurred under this Section 5.3
shall survive and continue in effect following any close-out or sooner
termination of this Agreement. USI agrees to take all action reasonably
requested by CZ (including, without limitation, execution of affidavits and
other documents) to evidence, perfect, confirm or vest the rights granted to CZ
herein.

         5.4 Preexisting Technology Disclosure. USI shall make best efforts to
provide CZ with a full and complete list of all Preexisting Technology
(including Licensed Technology) which USI has incorporated into the Work or
Deliverables and/or delivered to CZ hereunder, as soon as practicable, and to
continue to update the list as such may change. Such disclosures shall not be
deemed dispositive as to the issue as to whether any listed item meets the
specifications of the definition of Preexisting Technology. To the extent any
Licensed Technology has been incorporated into the Work or Deliverables and/or
delivered to CZ hereunder, and prior to USI's incorporation of Licensed
Technology into the Deliverables, USI shall disclose the name and version number
of such Licensed Technology, and any limitations which may be imposed by the
underlying license agreement for such Licensed Technology on the rights granted
under Section 5.3 above. In the event that CZ does not agree with the
incorporation of Licensed Technology whose license terms would affect CZ's
rights to use, execute, reproduce, display, perform, distribute internally and
externally, sell copies of and/or prepare derivative works, the parties shall
discuss, in good faith, alternate software to fulfill the functions of such
disputed Licensed Technology.

6.0      Changes

CZ may, at any time, by written notice advise USI of its intent to make changes
in, or additions to, or reductions from, the work to be performed by USI under
this Agreement. If such intended changes cause an increase or decrease in the
amount or character of the work under the Agreement, or in the time required for
performance as determined by USI, USI shall promptly so advise CZ in writing,
<PAGE>

specifying the impact of such change on the price and/or the time required for
performance. Thereafter, if CZ elects in writing to make such changes, an
equitable adjustment to all appropriate terms and conditions, including the
amount to be paid to USI and the time for performance, shall be made and this
Agreement modified accordingly with an amendment executed by both parties.

7.0      Confidential Information

         7.1 Ownership. All Confidential Information shall remain the property
of the disclosing party and shall be returned to the disclosing party no later
than the termination of this Agreement.

         7.2 Nondisclosure. Each party agrees and acknowledges that it shall
have no proprietary interest in the Confidential Information of the other party
and will not disclose, communicate or publish the nature or content of such
information to any person or entity, or use, except as contemplated by this
Agreement, any of the Confidential Information it produces, receives, acquires
or obtains from the disclosing party. Each party shall take reasonable steps
under the circumstances to ensure that the Confidential Information is securely
maintained but, in no event, less than a reasonable standard of care.

         7.3 Remedies. The parties acknowledge and agree that the other party's
remedy at law for breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this
Section 7 would be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, in the event of
breach or threatened breach by such party of any of the provisions of Section 7,
the parties agree that, in addition to its remedy at law, the disclosing party,
without any obligation to post bond, shall be entitled to equitable relief in
the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, preliminary or
permanent injunction, or any other equitable remedy that may then be available.
Nothing herein contained shall be construed as prohibiting the disclosing party
from pursuing any other remedies available to it based on such breach or
threatened breach. Pursuit of any remedy at law or in equity shall not be deemed
an election of remedies.

                       over the Work;
<PAGE>

               (iii)   USI will, at all times during performance of the Work,

               (iv)    there is no claim, litigation, or proceeding pending or,
                       to USI's knowledge, threatened, that will prevent or

                       USI may be required to incur in the performance of the
                       Work under this Agreement;

               (vi)    USI is the sole author, creator, or inventor of the Work
                       and the Results and Proceeds, other than as may be
                       tendered by CZ and except for such third parties'
                       properties which USI is authorized to incorporate into
                       the Work and Deliverables;

               (vii)   USI has the legal authority to make, use and/or sell the

                       all rights granted to CZ under this Agreement; and

               (viii)  the Work, Deliverables, Results and proceeds and the
                       components of each do not infringe upon or violate any
                       Intellectual Property Rights of any third party;

               (ix)    the Deliverables shall be free from defects in materials
                       and workmanship for a period of six (6) months following
                       acceptance by CZ (pursuant to Section 4.0 above). During
                       such six (6) month period, USI shall promptly correct, at
                       USI's expense, any defects reported by CZ provided such
                       defects arise from systems meeting the minimum operating
                       specifications as are set forth in the Statement(s) of
                       Work.

          (b) Each party represents to the other that it is authorized to
execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement, that the
person signing this Agreement on behalf of such party is authorized to do so,
and that this Agreement is enforceable against such party in accordance with its
terms.

        8.2 Unless otherwise specified in a written Statement of work for a
particular project, USI shall not be responsible to maintain any Work.
Maintenance services, if any, will be provided by separate contract. Nothing
contained in this Section 8.2 is intended by the parties to limit any warranty
set forth in this Agreement.

        8.3 USI represents and warrants that the Deliverables (other than any
portion of any Deliverable provided by or through CZ) are and shall be capable
of performing all functions, specifications, user requirements and/or
documentation both prior to and following January 1, 2000. The software
<PAGE>

programming design and performance capabilities to ensure year 2000
compatibility shall include, but shall not be limited to, date data century
recognition, calculations which accommodate same century and multi-century
formulas and data values, and date data interface values which reflect the
correct century and recognize the year 2000 as a leap year. In the event that at
any time such software is found not to function as specified herein as a result
of the date change from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000, notwithstanding
any other obligation or any remedy for breach thereof, at no additional charge,
USI shall immediately upon receipt of a report of defect, correct any such
defect so as to enable the software to fully function in accordance with this
Section and the relevant specifications, user requirements and/or documentation.
In doing so, USI shall not require CZ to make any changes to the software except
to install such changes provided by USI. The USI shall indemnify and hold CZ,
its subsidiaries and affiliates, as well as their respective directors,
officers, employees, consultants and assigns, harmless from and against any
cost, loss, damage or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by
CZ or its parent, affiliates or subsidiaries, as a result of a breach of the
foregoing warranty.

         8.4 USI represents and warrants that it will not knowingly, without the
express prior written consent of CZ, insert or program into any Deliverable
provided any program, routine, device or other undisclosed feature, including,
without limitation, a time bomb, virus, software lock, drop dead device,
malicious logic, worm, Trojan horse, or trap door, which is (a) designed to
delete, disable, deactivate, interfere with or otherwise harm the Results and
Proceeds or the Deliverables, CZ's (or a subsidiary's or affiliate's) hardware,
data or software, or (b) intended to provide unauthorized access or produce
unauthorized modifications to such Deliverables (collectively, "disabling
procedures"). If CZ incorporates programs or routines supplied by other vendors,
licensors or contractors into the deliverables, USI shall obtain comparable
warranties from such providers or USI shall be entitled to take appropriate
action to ensure that such programs or routines are free of disabling
procedures. Notwithstanding any other limitations in this Agreement, USI agrees
to notify CZ immediately upon discovery of any disabling procedures which are or
may be included in deliverables. If disabling procedures are discovered or
reasonably suspected to be present in the Results and Proceeds and/or the
Deliverables, USI agrees to take action immediately, at its own expense, to
identify and eradicate (or to have CZ do so on its behalf or to equip CZ to
identify and eradicate) such disabling procedures and carry out any recovery
necessary to remedy any impact of such disabling procedures.

         8.5 USI HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY GENERAL WARRANTY OF "MERCHANTABILITY" OR
"FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE". There are no warranties provided by USI
except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. CZ's remedies for breach of
warranty or based on any other legal theory are limited to the reasonable cost
of correction of the critical fault, and do not include any rights to indirect,
special, exemplary, punitive, incidental or consequential damages. Any action
for breach of any warranty, or based on any other legal theory, must be
commenced within one (1) year after the cause of action has accrued.

<PAGE>

9.0      Payment

Every project to be performed pursuant to this Agreement will begin with a
"kickoff payment" equal to such amount as is specifically set forth in the
associated Statement of Work. All billings after that will be provided by USI to
CZ on a monthly basis at the end of each month, with payment due net thirty (30)
days except with respect to currently outstanding amounts which shall be paid in
accordance with the Statement of Work. The amount billed monthly will be the
balance of the agreed budget over the number of months for the project as set
forth in the respective Statement(s) of Work. Payment of all amounts due,
including expenses, will be made within thirty days after the date of invoice.
Interest of 10% per annum will accrue on overdue amounts form the date of
invoice. If any collection action is commenced, the prevailing party will be
entitled to a reasonable attorney's fee equal to at least 25% of the amount at
issue.

10.0     Expense Policy

CZ agrees to reimburse or pay directly all reasonable and pre-authorized
expenses, without mark-up, actually incurred by USI in connection with the
services to be provided under this Agreement. All such expenses, including
travel costs, where practical, shall be estimated in writing by USI (plus or
minus 15%) and approved in writing by CZ prior to such expenses being incurred.
USI shall present an invoice representing the actually incurred expenses,
without mark-up, together with appropriate receipts to CZ on a monthly basis for
routine expenses, and will invoice expense for major trips as they are
completed. CZ will pay such expenses or provide reimbursement within thirty (30)
days of receipt of any such invoice. USI may require CZ to incur or pay major
project expenses directly provided the timing and amounts of such are approved
in advance, in writing, by CZ. Any expenses incurred by USI which do not comply
with this Section 10 will not be paid or reimbursed by CZ.

11.0     Indemnification

Upon final payment required under this Agreement, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, and subject to the following conditions, USI shall,
at its sole cost and expense, defend, indemnify and hold harmless CZ (and its
Affiliates) from and against any and all Indemnifiable Claims of whatever nature
arising out of or resulting from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of USI; (ii) property damage caused by USI, its employees, agents, and
consultants, (iii) any failure of any of the representations made by USI in this
Agreement to be true when made, (iv) any actual breach by USI of any of its
obligations under this Agreement; or (v) any infringement of any of the Work,
Deliverables and Results and Proceeds upon any intellectual property rights of
any third party, and USI will, promptly upon written request, fully reimburse CZ
for expenses incurred by CZ (or its Affiliates) by reason of any of the
foregoing Indemnifiable Claims. CZ shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless USI
for any Indemnifiable Claim arising out of any items supplied by or through CZ
in connection with USI's performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

12.0     Announcements

Provided USI is not in breach of this Agreement, and upon issuance by CZ of
prior written approval of the content of such disclosure, USI may mention CZ in
connection with USI speaking engagements, USI web sites, and nonpublic
communications sent by USI to existing and potential clients and others,
<PAGE>

indicating the CZ client relationship with USI, and generally what USI is doing
or has done for CZ, without disclosing strategic information about CZ. Written
approval from CZ must be obtained before disclosing any details about specific
engagements by CZ of USI. USI may issue a press release, provided to and
approved in writing in advance by CZ, disclosing the client relationship between
CZ and USI.

13.0     Personnel

         13.1 Each party agrees not to knowingly hire or knowingly solicit for
employment or otherwise knowingly engage the services of any individual known to
the soliciting party to be employed by or under contract with the other party
and utilized to complete any of the projects contemplated by this Agreement,
without the other party's consent, for a period of twelve (12) months after the
completion of the work specified in the Statement(s) of Work or termination of
this Agreement; provided, however, a party may accept applications received in
connection with an open recruitment for employment opportunities.

         13.2 With respect to any portion of the Work done in the United States,
and solely for purposes of complying with the Immigration Reform and Control Act
of 1986 and its regulations ("IRCA"), USI warrants to CZ and agrees that, to the
best of USI's ability, USI will (i) not assign any individual to perform work
hereunder who is an authorized alien under IRCA, (ii) immediately remove any
alien discovered to be unauthorized from such work and replace him/her with
someone who is not an unauthorized alien, and (iii) to the extent permitted by
law, indemnify, defend and hold CZ harmless from and against all liabilities,
damages, losses or expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees arising out of USI's
breach of this Section 13.2.

14.0     Status

        14.1 It is the express intention of the parties that, in the performance
of the Work to be provided under this Agreement, USI is an independent
contractor and not an employee, agent, franchisee, joint venturer or partner of
CZ, and USI shall have complete control over and responsibility for all
personnel performing the Work. USI shall have no authority to act for, bind, or
commit CZ in any way. Nothing in this Agreement will be interpreted as creating
the relationship of employer and employee or of agent and principal between CZ,
on the one hand, and USI or any employee or agent of USI, on the other hand, and
USI will retain the right to perform services for others during the term of this
Agreement. Further, both parties acknowledge that USI is not a CZ employee for
city, county, province, state, federal or national (or other governing body
having jurisdiction over the Work) tax purposes and USI is solely responsible
and liable for paying all applicable taxes and social insurance levied by any
competent authorities and/or any governing bodies in any country having
jurisdiction over the Work, and shall pay such in a timely manner. USI shall be
responsible for maintaining workman's compensation insurance coverage for its
employees.

        14.2 USI shall supervise and direct all Work, using USI's best skills
and attention. USI shall be solely responsible for and have control over means,
methods, techniques, sequences, assembly details and procedures and for
coordinating all portions of the Work under this Agreement.

<PAGE>

15.0     Termination

         15.1 Termination by CZ. Upon thirty (30) days advance written notice to
USI by CZ, CZ may terminate all of the services called for by this Agreement. In
the event of such termination, and so long as USI is not in default hereunder,
CZ shall be obligated to pay USI, upon termination, the agreed price for all
Work performed by USI through the effective date of termination plus any
approved third party expenses incurred by USI in reliance on the Statement(s) of
Work undertaken in compliance with the expense provisions set forth above. Upon
receipt of such termination, USI immediately will stop all Work, place no
additional orders, attempt to return goods which have been already received on
the best possible terms and immediately cancel any existing orders on the best
possible terms. USI will preserve and protect materials on hand, work in
progress, data and completed Work, whether in USI's facilities or otherwise. CZ
will have an immediate right of possession, and as promptly as possible, USI
will provide to CZ all Work then completed or partially completed including all
materials, equipment, receipts and records, and originals and copies of all
computer generated designs on all electronic storage media, as well as all
calculations, specifications and all other information then performed by USI. In
no event will USI be entitled to any payment under this Section 15.1 until USI
complies with these obligations.

         15.2 Termination by Either. Either party may terminate this Agreement
upon written notice if the other party breaches any of its material obligations
hereunder, if the breach is not cured (if reasonably curable at all) within
thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice of such breach if such breach is
capable of being cured.

18.0     Dispute Resolution

Any claim, controversy, or dispute, whether sounding in contract, statute, tort,
fraud, misrepresentation or other legal theory, whenever brought and whether
between the parties to this Agreement or between one of the parties to this
Agreement and the employees, agents or affiliated businesses of the other party,
shall be resolved by arbitration as prescribed in this paragraph. A single
arbitrator engaged in the practice of law shall conduct the arbitration under
the then current commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration
Association ("AAA"). The arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with AAA
procedures from a list of qualified people (i.e., knowledgeable in the industry
to which this Agreement applies) maintained by AAA. The arbitration shall be
conducted in Los Angeles, California, and all expedited procedures prescribed by
the AAA rules shall apply. The arbitrator shall have authority to award
compensatory damages only and shall not have authority to award incidental,
consequential, exemplary or punitive damage, or non-compensatory damages
(including, without limitation, damages for loss of business, profits or
revenues, loss of goodwill, business interruption, or failure to realize
expected savings) or any other form of relief; provided, however, either party
may apply to any court having jurisdiction thereof solely for the entry of
injunctive relief to maintain the status quo until such time as the arbitration
award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Each party shall
bear its own costs and attorney's fees and the parties shall share equally the

fees and expenses of the arbitration. The arbitrator's decision and award shall
be final and binding, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may
be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. If any party files a
judicial or administrative action asserting claims subject to arbitration, as
prescribed herein, and another party successfully stays such action and/or
compels arbitration of said claims, the party filing said action shall pay the
other party's costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such stay and/or
compelling arbitration, including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs.

20.0     General Provisions

         20.1 Entire Agreement. Each party acknowledges that it has read this
Agreement, understands it and agrees to be bound by its terms and conditions and
further agrees that this Agreement, together with any and all exhibits,
attachments, riders and schedules referred to therein is the complete and
exclusive statement of this Agreement between the parties, superseding all
proposals, negotiations, or prior arrangements, oral or written, and all other
communications between the parties relating to the subject matter of this
Agreement, all of which are expressly merged herein and there are no terms,
conditions, representations, warranties or covenants other than those set forth
therein.

         20.2 Governing Law. The Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California pertaining to contracts made
and to be performed entirely therein, without regard to its choice of law or
conflict of law provisions. The parties exclude the application of the United
States Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

         20.3 Amendment and Modification. No term or provision of this Agreement
may be amended, waived, released, discharged or modified in any respect, except
in writing signed by a duly authorized officer of each of the parties hereto.

         20.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and will become
effective and binding upon the parties at such time as all of the signatories
hereto have signed each counterpart of the Agreement. Copies of this Agreement
may be transmitted via telefax for signature and each mutually executed fax copy
may be used for all purposes as an original by either party.

         20.6 Severability. If any term or provision of the Agreement or the
application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder or this Agreement or the application of
such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which
it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and all other
terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the
fullest extent permitted by law. Except as otherwise expressly provided, the
remedies available under this Agreement will be cumulative and in addition to
any other remedies provided at law and in equity.

         20.7 Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any party to the
Agreement in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right,
power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power, or remedy hereunder. No waiver, amendment or
modification, including those by custom, usage of trade or course of dealing, of
any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed
by the party against whom such waiver, amendment or modification is sought to be
enforced. No waiver by any party of any default in performance by the other
party under the agreement or of any breach of series of breaches by the other
party of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement shall constitute a
waiver of any subsequent default in performance under the Agreement or any
subsequent breach of any terms or conditions of the Agreement. Performance of
any obligation required of a party under this Agreement may be waived only by a
written waiver signed by a duly authorized officer of the other party, and such
waiver shall be effective only with respect to the specific obligation described
in that waiver.

         20.8 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned or otherwise
transferred by either party, in whole or in part, voluntarily, involuntarily, by
operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other
party; and any purported attempt to do so shall be deemed void. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, CZ may assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement to a successor
entity to CZ or to an entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control
with, CZ without requiring consent provided that CZ shall remain liable for any
money's owed to USI in the event of a default in the payment of such by such
success or assignee. The Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the
benefit of, the parties hereto and, as applicable, their permitted respective
heirs, executors, administrators, representatives and successors.

         20.9 Construction of Language. The language in all parts of this
Agreement will be interpreted simply, according to its fair meaning and not
strictly for or against any of party. Each party acknowledges that the language
contained in this Agreement is the product of an arms length negotiation
conducted by that party's duly appointed legal counsel. As a result, neither
party (i) shall be deemed to have drafted this Agreement nor (ii) shall be
entitled to construe this Agreement, either in whole or in part, against the
other party on the theory that contract provisions are construed against the
party that drafted it.

         20.10 Audit. USI shall keep complete and accurate records of the
charges for services rendered pursuant to this Agreement. USI shall allow CZ, or
its representative and its auditors and regulators, during office hours and at
