                  Market Value of the Stock on a date shall be the average of
                  the highest and lowest quoted selling prices of the Stock in
                  such market on such date if at least 100 shares of Stock were

         entity constituting the Employer, as an independent contractor

         Employer. Except to the extent provided otherwise in an Agreement or
         determined otherwise by the Committee, a Termination of Service shall
         not be deemed to have occurred if the capacity in which the Participant
         provides service to the Employer changes (for example, a change from
         consultant status to employee status) or if the Participant transfers
         among the various entities constituting the Employer, so long as there
         is no interruption in the provision of service by the Participant to
         the Employer. The determination of whether a Participant has incurred a
         Termination of Service shall be made by the Committee in its
         discretion. A Participant shall not be deemed to have incurred a
         Termination of Service if the Participant is on military leave, sick
         leave, or other bona fide leave of absence approved by the Employer of
         90 days or fewer (or any longer period during which the Participant is
         guaranteed reemployment by statute or contract.) In the event a
         Participant's leave of absence exceeds this period, he will be deemed
         to have incurred a Termination of Service on the day following the
         expiration date of such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
         determination of whether a Termination of Service has occurred with
         respect to an Incentive Stock Option shall be made consistent with Code
         section 422.

                          ARTICLE III - ADMINISTRATION

                                        4

<PAGE>

3.1      This Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee, in its
         discretion, may delegate to one or more of its members such of its
         powers as it deems appropriate. The Committee also may limit the power
         of any member to the extent necessary to comply with rule 16b-3 under
         the Act, Code section 162(m) or any other law or for any other purpose.
         The Board may appoint originally, and as vacancies occur, the members
         of the Committee who shall serve at the pleasure of the Board. The
         Board may serve as the Committee if by the terms of the Plan all Board
         members are otherwise eligible to serve on the Committee. To the extent
         that a Committee has not otherwise been appointed, references to the
         "Committee" herein shall mean the Board.

3.2      The Committee shall meet at such times and places as it determines. A
         majority of its members shall constitute a quorum, and the decision of
         a majority of those present at any meeting at which a quorum is present
         shall constitute the decision of the Committee. A memorandum signed by
         all of its members shall constitute the decision of the Committee
         without necessity, in such event, for holding an actual meeting.

3.3      The Committee shall have the exclusive right to interpret, construe and
         administer the Plan, to select the persons who are eligible to receive
         an Award, and to act in all matters pertaining to the granting of an
         Award and the contents of the Agreement evidencing the Award, including
         without limitation, the determination of the number of Stock Options or
         shares of Stock subject to an Award and the form, terms, conditions and
         duration of each Award, and any amendment thereof consistent with the
         provisions of the Plan. All acts, determinations and decisions of the
         Committee made or taken pursuant to grants of authority under the Plan
         or with respect to any questions arising in connection with the
         administration and interpretation of the Plan, including the
         severability of any and all of the provisions thereof, shall be
         conclusive, final and binding upon all Participants, Eligible
         Participants and their estates and beneficiaries.

3.4      The Committee may adopt such rules, regulations and procedures of
         general application for the administration of this Plan, as it deems
         appropriate.

3.5      Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.10, the aggregate number
         of shares of Stock which are available for issuance pursuant to Awards
         granted under the Plan shall be nine million (9,000,000) shares. Such
         shares of Stock shall be made available from authorized and unissued
         shares of Stock. If, for any reason, any shares of Stock awarded or
         subject to purchase under the Plan are not delivered or purchased, or
         are reacquired by the Company, for reasons including, but not limited
         to, a forfeiture of Restricted Stock or termination, expiration or
         cancellation of a Stock Option, such shares of Stock shall not be
         charged against the aggregate number of shares of Stock available for
         issuance pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan and shall again be
         available for issuance pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan. If
         the exercise price and/or withholding obligation under a Stock Option
         is satisfied by tendering shares of Stock to the Company (either by
         actual delivery or attestation), only the number of shares of Stock
         issued net of the share of Stock so tendered shall be deemed delivered
         for purposes of determining the maximum number of shares of Stock
         available for issuance under the Plan.

                                        5

<PAGE>

3.6      Each Award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written
         Agreement. Each Agreement shall be subject to and incorporate, by
         reference or otherwise, the applicable terms and conditions of the
         Plan, and any other terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the
         Plan, as may be imposed by the Committee.

3.7      The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates
         for shares of Stock prior to:

         (a)      the listing of such shares on any stock exchange or national
                  quotation system on which the Stock may then be listed; and

         (b)      the completion of any registration or qualification of such
                  shares of Stock under any federal or state law, or any ruling
                  or regulation of any government body which the Company shall,
                  in its discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable.

3.8      All certificates for shares of Stock delivered under the Plan shall
         also be subject to such stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as
         the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and
         other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock
         exchange or national quotation system upon which the Stock is then
         listed and any applicable federal or state laws, and the Committee may
         cause a legend or legends to be placed on any such certificates to make
         appropriate reference to such restrictions. In making such
         determination, the Committee may rely upon an opinion of counsel for
         the Company.

3.9      Subject to the restrictions on Restricted Stock, as provided in Article
         VII of the Plan and in the Restricted Stock Agreement, each Participant
         who receives an Award of Restricted Stock shall have all of the rights
         of a stockholder with respect to such shares of Stock, including the
         right to vote the shares to the extent, if any, such shares possess
         voting rights and receive dividends and other distributions. Except as
         provided otherwise in the Plan or in an Agreement, no Participant
         awarded a Stock Option shall have any right as a stockholder with
         respect to any shares of Stock covered by his or her Stock Option prior
         to the date of issuance to him or her of a certificate or certificates
         for such shares of Stock.

3.10     If any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split,
         stock dividend, or consolidation of shares of Stock, merger or
         consolidation or separation, including a spin-off, of the Company or
         sale or other disposition by the Company of all or a portion of its
         assets, any other change in the Company's corporate structure, or any
         distribution to stockholders other than a cash dividend results in the
         outstanding shares of Stock, or any securities exchanged therefor or
         received in their place, being exchanged for a different number or
         class of shares of Stock or other securities of the Company, or for
         shares of Stock or other securities of any other corporation; or new,
         different or additional shares or other securities of the Company or of
         any other corporation being received by the holders of outstanding
         shares of Stock, then the Committee shall make equitable adjustments
         in:

                                        6

<PAGE>

         (a)      the limitation on the aggregate number of shares of Stock that
                  may be awarded as set forth in Section 3.5 of the Plan;

         (b)      the number of shares and class of Stock that may be subject to
                  an Award, and which have not been issued or transferred under
                  an outstanding Award;

         (c)      the purchase price to be paid per share of Stock under
                  outstanding Stock Options; and

         (d)      the terms, conditions or restrictions of any Award and
                  Agreement, including the price payable for the acquisition of
                  Stock;

         provided, however, that all adjustments made as the result of the
         foregoing in respect of each Incentive Stock Option shall be made so
         that such Stock Option shall continue to be an incentive stock option
         within the meaning of Code section 422, unless the Committee takes
         affirmative action to treat such Stock Option instead as a Nonqualified
         Stock Option.

3.11     In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as
         directors or as members of the Committee, the members of the Committee
         shall be indemnified by the Company against reasonable expenses,
         including attorney's fees, actually and necessarily incurred in
         connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in
         connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be
         a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in
         connection with the Plan or any Award granted thereunder, and against
         all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof, provided such
         settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the
         Company, or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment or settlement in
         any such action, suit or proceeding, except as to matters as to which
         the Committee member has been negligent or engaged in misconduct in the
         performance of his duties; provided, that within 60 days after
         institution of any such action, suit or proceeding, a Committee member
         shall in writing offer the Company the opportunity, at its own expense,
         to handle and defend the same.

3.12     The Committee may require each person purchasing shares of Stock
         pursuant to a Stock Option or other Award under the Plan to represent
         to and agree with the Company in writing that he is acquiring the
         shares of Stock without a view to distribution thereof and/or that he
         has met such other requirements as the Committee determines may be
         applicable to such purchase. The certificates for such shares of Stock
         may include any legend which the Committee deems appropriate to reflect
         any restrictions on transfer.

3.13     The Committee shall be authorized to make adjustments in performance
         based criteria or in the other terms and conditions of Awards in
         recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company or
         its financial statements or changes in applicable laws, regulations or
         accounting principles. The Committee may correct any defect, supply any
         omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Agreement in
         the manner and

                                        7

         to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry it into effect. In the
         event the Company shall assume outstanding employee benefit awards or
         the right or obligation to make such awards in the future in connection
         with the acquisition of another corporation or business entity, the
         Committee may, in its discretion, make such adjustments in the terms of
         Awards under the Plan as it shall deem appropriate to assume the
         outstanding awards, rights and obligations.

3.14     All outstanding Awards to any Participant may be canceled if:

         (a)      the Participant, without the consent of the Committee, while
                  employed by the Employer or after termination of such
                  employment, becomes associated with, employed by, renders
                  services to, or owns any interest in, other than any
                  insubstantial interest, as determined by the Committee, any
                  business that is in competition with the Employer or with any
                  business in which the Employer has a substantial interest or
                  that has a substantial interest in the Employer, as determined
                  by the Committee; or

         (b)      the Participant is terminated for cause as determined by the
                  Committee.

3.15     If the Company provides Participant with written notice that the
         Company is or intends to conduct any Public Offering, a Participant
         shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge,
         grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose or transfer
         for value or otherwise agree to engage in any of the foregoing
         transactions with respect to, any Stock acquired under the Plan without
         the prior written consent of the Company or its underwriters. Such
         restriction (the "Market Stand-Off") shall be in effect for such period
         of time before and after the effective date of the final prospectus for
         the Public Offering as may be requested by the Company or such
         underwriters. In no event, however, shall such period exceed the period
         for which securities owned by the Chief Executive Officer of the
         Company are subject to the same restrictions. Any new, substituted or
         additional securities that are by reason of any recapitalization or
         reorganization distributed with respect to Stock acquired under the
         Plan shall be immediately subject to the Market Stand-Off, to the same
         extent the Stock acquired under the Plan is at such time covered by
         such provisions. In order to enforce the Market Stand-Off, the Company
         may impose stop-transfer restrictions with respect to the Stock
         acquired under the Plan until the end of the applicable stand-off
         period.

                      ARTICLE IV - INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS

4.1      Each provision of this Article IV and of each Incentive Stock Option
         granted under the Plan shall be construed in accordance with the
         provisions of Code section 422, and any provision hereof that cannot be
         so construed shall be disregarded.

4.2      All or any portion of the shares of stock authorized for issuance
         pursuant to Section 3.5 herein shall be available for issuance pursuant
         to Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan.

                                        8

<PAGE>

4.3      Incentive Stock Options shall be granted only to Eligible Participants
         who are in the active employment of the Employer, each of whom may be
         granted one or more such Incentive Stock Options for a reason related
         to his employment at such time or times determined by the Committee
         following the Effective Date through the date which is ten (10) years
         following the Effective Date, subject to the following conditions:

         (a)      The Incentive Stock Option exercise price per share of Stock
                  shall be set in the corresponding Agreement, but shall not be
                  less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the
                  Option Grant Date. However, if the Eligible Participant owns
                  more than 10% of the outstanding Stock (as determined pursuant
                  to Code section 424(d)) on the Option Grant Date, the
                  Incentive Stock Option price per share shall not be less than
                  110% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Option Grant
                  Date.

         (b)      The Incentive Stock Option may be exercised in whole or in
                  part within ten (10) years from the Option Grant Date (five
                  (5) years if the Eligible Participant owns more than 10% of
                  the Stock on the Option Grant Date), or such shorter period as
                  may be specified by the Committee in the Agreement.

         (c)      The Committee may adopt any other terms and conditions which
                  it determines should be imposed for the Incentive Stock Option
                  to qualify under Code section 422, as well as any other terms
                  and conditions not inconsistent with this Article IV as
                  determined by the Committee.

4.4      The Incentive Stock Option Agreement may include any other terms and
         conditions not inconsistent with this Article IV or in Article VI, as
         determined by the Committee.

4.5      To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the
         Option Grant Date, of the shares of Stock with respect to which
         incentive stock options (determined without regard to this subsection)
         are first exercisable during any calendar year (under this Plan or any
         other plan of the Company and its parent and subsidiary corporations
         (within the meaning of Code sections 424(e) and (f)) by any Participant
         exceeds $100,000, such Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan
         shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options granted under Article V
         to the extent of such excess.

4.6      Any Incentive Stock Option that fails to qualify under Code section 422
         shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option.

4.7      In the event the provisions of the Code or successor statue governing
         Incentive Stock Options are amended to remove any of the restrictions
         or limitations stated in this Article IV or to impose new restrictions
         or limitations governing Incentive Stock Options, then this Article IV
         shall be automatically amended to incorporate such new provisions
         governing Incentive Stock Options to the extent required to cause any
         award that is

                                        9

<PAGE>

         intended to be an Incentive Stock Option to qualify for such treatment
         under this Code or successor statute.

                     ARTICLE V - NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS

5.1      Nonqualified Stock Options may be granted to Eligible Participants to
         purchase shares of Stock at such time or times determined by the
         Committee, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
         Article V.

5.2      The Nonqualified Stock Option exercise price per share of Stock shall
         be established in the Agreement and may be more than, equal to or less
         than 100% of the Fair Market Value at the time of the grant, but may
         not be less than par value of the Stock.

5.3      A Nonqualified Stock Option may be exercised in full or in part from
         time to time within such period as may be specified by the Committee in
         the corresponding Agreement; provided, that, in any event, the
         Nonqualified Stock Option shall lapse and cease to be exercisable upon
         a Termination of Service or within such period following a Termination
         of Service as shall have been specified in the Nonqualified Stock
         Option Agreement; provided, that such period following a Termination of
         Service shall in no event extend the original exercise period of the
         Nonqualified Stock Option.

5.4      The Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement may include any other terms and
         conditions not inconsistent with this Article V or in Article VI, as
         determined by the Committee.

                    ARTICLE VI - INCIDENTS OF STOCK OPTIONS

6.1      Each Stock Option shall be granted subject to such terms and
         conditions, if any, not inconsistent with this Plan, as shall be
         determined by the Committee, including any provisions as to continued
         employment as consideration for the grant or exercise of such Stock
         Option and any provisions that may be advisable to comply with
         applicable laws, regulations or rulings of any governmental authority.

6.2      Except as provided below, a Stock Option shall not be transferable by
         the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and
         distribution or, to the extent otherwise allowed by applicable law,
         pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code
         or the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or
         the rules thereunder, and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of
         the Participant only by him or in the event of his death or Disability,
         by his guardian or legal representative. However, a Nonqualified Stock
         Option may be transferred and exercised by the transferee to the extent
         permitted by the Committee and to the extent determined by the
         Committee to be consistent with securities and other applicable laws,
         rules and regulations and with Company policy.

6.3      Shares of Stock purchased upon exercise of a Stock Option shall be paid
         for at the time of exercise (or, in case of an exercise pursuant to a
         cashless exercise mechanism described

                                       10

<PAGE>

         below, as soon as practicable after such exercise) in cash or by
         tendering (either by actual delivery or by attestation) shares of Stock
         held by the Participant for the requisite period necessary to avoid a
         charge to the Company's earnings for financial reporting purposes, as
         determined by the Committee in its discretion, and valued as of the
         exercise date or in any combination thereof in such amounts, at such
         times and upon such terms as shall be determined by the Committee,
         subject to limitations set forth in the corresponding Stock Option
         Agreement. The Committee may establish a cashless exercise mechanism by
         which a Participant may pay the exercise price under a Stock Option by
         irrevocably authorizing a third party to sell shares of Stock (or a
         sufficient portion of the shares) acquired upon exercise of the Stock
         Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of the sales
         proceeds to pay the entire exercise price and/or any tax withholding
         resulting from such exercise.

6.4      If a Stock Option Agreement so provides, the Committee may require that
         all or part of the shares of Stock to be issued upon the exercise of a
         Stock Option shall take the form of Restricted Stock, which shall be
         valued on the date of exercise, as determined by the Committee, on the
         basis of Fair Market Value of such Restricted Stock determined without
         regard to the forfeiture restrictions involved.

6.5      No cash dividends shall be paid on shares of Stock subject to
         unexercised Stock Options. The Committee may provide, however, that a
         Participant to whom a Stock Option has been granted which is
         exercisable in whole or in part at a future time for shares of Stock
         shall be entitled to receive an amount per share equal in value to the
         cash dividends, if any, paid per share on issued and outstanding Stock,
         as of the dividend record dates occurring during the period between the
         date of the grant and the time each such share of Stock is delivered
         pursuant to exercise of such Stock Option. Such amounts (herein called
         "dividend equivalents") may, in the discretion of the Committee, be:

         (a)      paid in cash or Stock either from time to time prior to, or at
                  the time of the delivery of, such Stock, or upon expiration of
                  the Stock Option if it shall not have been fully exercised; or

         (b)      converted into contingently credited shares of Stock, with
                  respect to which dividend equivalents may accrue, in such
                  manner, at such value, and deliverable at such time or times,
                  as may be determined by the Committee.

         Such Stock, whether delivered or contingently credited, shall be
         charged against the limitations set forth in Plan Section 3.5.

6.6      The Committee, in its sole discretion, may authorize payment of
         interest equivalents on dividend equivalents which are payable in cash
         at a future time.

6.7      If a Participant is required to pay to the Employer an amount with
         respect to income and employment tax withholding obligations in
         connection with exercise of a Stock Option, and/or with respect to
         certain dispositions of Stock acquired upon the exercise of an

                                       11

<PAGE>

         Incentive Stock Option, the Committee, in its discretion and subject to
         such rules as it may adopt, may permit the Participant to satisfy the
         obligation, in whole or in part, by surrendering shares of Stock which
         the Participant already owns or by making an irrevocable election that,
         in lieu of the issuance of Stock, a portion of the total Fair Market
         Value of the shares of Stock subject to the Stock Option and/or with
         respect to certain dispositions of Stock acquired upon the exercise of
         an Incentive Stock Option, be surrendered for cash and that such cash
         payment be applied to the satisfaction of the withholding obligations.
         The amount to be withheld shall not exceed the statutory minimum
         federal and state income and employment tax liability arising from the
         Stock Option exercise transaction.

6.8      The Committee may permit the voluntary surrender of all or a portion of
         any Stock Option granted under the Plan to be conditioned upon the
         granting to the Participant of a new Stock Option for the same or a
         different number of shares of Stock as the Stock Option surrendered, or
         may require such surrender as a condition precedent to a grant of a new
         Stock Option to such Participant. Subject to the provisions of the
         Plan, such new Stock Option shall be exercisable at such price, during
         such period and on such other terms and conditions as are specified by
         the Committee at the time the new Stock Option is granted. Upon
         surrender, the Stock Options surrendered shall be canceled and the
         shares of Stock previously subject to them shall be available for the
         grant of other Stock Options.

6.9      The Committee may provide in any Stock Option Agreement entered into
         pursuant to the Plan, or by separate agreement, that if a Participant
         makes payment upon the exercise of any Stock Option granted under this
         Plan in whole or in part through the surrender of shares of Stock, such
         Participant shall automatically receive a new Stock Option for the
         number of shares of Stock so surrendered by him at a price equal to the
         Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock at the time of surrender,
         exercisable on the same basis and having the same terms as the
         underlying Stock Option or on such other basis as the Committee shall
         determine and provide in the Stock Option Agreement.

                         ARTICLE VII - RESTRICTED STOCK

7.1      Restricted Stock Awards may be made to Participants as incentives for
         the performance of future services that will contribute materially to
         the successful operation of the Employer. Awards of Restricted Stock
         may be made either alone or in addition to or in tandem with other
         Awards granted under the Plan.

7.2      With respect to Awards of Restricted Stock, the Committee shall:

         (a)      determine the purchase price, if any, to be paid for such
                  Restricted Stock, which may be more than, equal to or less
                  than par value and may be zero, subject to such minimum
                  consideration as may be required by applicable law;

         (b)      determine the length of the Restriction Period;

                                       12

<PAGE>

         (c)      determine any restrictions applicable to the Restricted Stock
                  such as service or performance;

         (d)      determine if the restrictions shall lapse as to all shares of
                  Restricted Stock at the end of the Restriction Period or as to
                  a portion of the shares of Restricted Stock in installments
                  during the Restriction Period; and

         (e)      determine if dividends and other distributions on the
                  Restricted Stock are to be paid currently to the Participant
                  or paid to the Company for the account of the Participant.

7.3      Awards of Restricted Stock must be accepted within a period of 60 days,
         or such other period as the Committee may specify, by executing a
         Restricted Stock Agreement and paying whatever price, if any, is
         required. The prospective recipient of a Restricted Stock Award shall
         not have any rights with respect to such Award, unless such recipient
         has executed a Restricted Stock Agreement, has delivered a fully
         executed copy thereof to the Committee, and has otherwise complied with
         the applicable terms and conditions of such Award.

7.4      Except when the Committee determines otherwise, or as otherwise
         provided in the Restricted Stock Agreement, if a Participant terminates
         employment with the Employer for any reason before the expiration of
         the Restriction Period, all shares of Restricted Stock still subject to
         restriction shall be forfeited by the Participant and shall be
         reacquired by the Company.

7.5      Except as otherwise provided in this Article VII, or as otherwise
         provided in the Restricted Stock Agreement, no shares of Restricted
         Stock received by a Participant shall be sold, exchanged, transferred,
         pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of during the Restriction
         Period.

7.6      To the extent not otherwise provided in a Restricted Stock Agreement,
         in cases of death, Disability or Retirement or in cases of special
         circumstances, the Committee may in its discretion elect to waive any
         or all remaining restrictions with respect to such Participant's
         Restricted Stock.

7.7      In the event of hardship or other special circumstances of a
         Participant whose employment with the Employer is involuntarily
         terminated, the Committee may in its discretion elect to waive in whole
         or in part any or all remaining restrictions with respect to any or all
         of the Participant's Restricted Stock, based on such factors and
         criteria as the Committee may deem appropriate.

7.8      Upon an Award of Restricted Stock to a Participant, one or more stock
         certificates representing the shares of Restricted Stock shall be
         registered in the Participant's name. Such certificates may either:

                                       13

<PAGE>

         (a)      be held in custody by the Company until the Restriction Period
                  expires or until restrictions thereon otherwise lapse, and the
                  Participant shall deliver to the Company one or more stock
                  powers endorsed in blank relating to the Restricted Stock;
                  and/or

         (b)      be issued to the Participant and registered in the name of the
                  Participant, and shall bear an appropriate restrictive legend
                  and shall be subject to appropriate stop-transfer orders.

7.9      Except as provided in this Article VII or in the applicable Restricted
         Stock Agreement, a Participant receiving a Restricted Stock Award shall
         have, with respect to such Restricted Stock Award, all of the rights of
         a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares to
         the extent, if any, such shares possess voting rights and the right to
         receive any dividends; provided, however, the Committee may require
         that any dividends on such shares of Restricted Stock shall be
         automatically deferred and reinvested in additional Restricted Stock
         subject to the same restrictions as the underlying Award, or may
         require that dividends and other distributions on Restricted Stock
         shall be paid to the Company for the account of the Participant. The
         Committee shall determine whether interest shall be paid on such
         amounts, the rate of any such interest, and the other terms applicable
         to such amounts.

7.10     If and when the Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture
         of the Restricted Stock subject to such Restriction Period,
         unrestricted certificates for such shares shall be delivered to the
         Participant; provided, however, that the Committee may cause such
         legend or legends to be placed on any such certificates as it may deem
         advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the
         Securities and Exchange Commission and any applicable federal or state
         law.

7.11     In order to better ensure that Award payments actually reflect the
         performance of the Company and the service of the Participant, the
         Committee may provide, in its sole discretion, for a tandem
         performance-based or other Award designed to guarantee a minimum value,
         payable in cash or Stock to the recipient of a Restricted Stock Award,
         subject to such performance, future service, deferral and other terms
         and conditions as may be specified by the Committee.

                           ARTICLE VIII - STOCK AWARDS

8.1      A Stock Award shall be granted only in payment of compensation that has
         been earned or as compensation to be earned, including without
         limitation, compensation awarded concurrently with or prior to the
         grant of the Stock Award.

8.2      For the purposes of this Plan, in determining the value of a Stock
         Award, all shares of Stock subject to such Stock Award shall be valued
         at not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of such shares of Stock
         on the date such Stock Award is granted, regardless

                                       14

<PAGE>

         of whether or when such shares of Stock are issued or transferred to
         the Participant and whether or not such shares of Stock are subject to
         restrictions which affect their value.

8.3      Shares of Stock subject to a Stock Award may be issued or transferred
         to the Participant at the time the Stock Award is granted, or at any
         time subsequent thereto, or in installments from time to time, as the
         Committee shall determine. If any such issuance or transfer shall not
         be made to the Participant at the time the Stock Award is granted, the
         Committee may provide for payment to such Participant, either in cash
         or shares of Stock, from time to time or at the time or times such
         shares of Stock shall be issued or transferred to such Participant, of
         amounts not exceeding the dividends which would have been payable to
         such Participant in respect of such shares of Stock, as adjusted under
         Section 3.10, if such shares of Stock had been issued or transferred to
         such Participant at the time such Stock Award was granted.

8.4      A Stock Award shall be subject to such terms and conditions, including
         without limitation, restrictions on the sale or other disposition of
         the Stock Award or of the shares of Stock issued or transferred
         pursuant to such Stock Award, as the Committee shall determine;
         provided, however, that upon the issuance or transfer of shares
         pursuant to a Stock Award, the Participant, with respect to such shares
         of Stock, shall be and become a stockholder of the Company fully
         entitled to receive dividends, to vote to the extent, if any, such
         shares possess voting rights and to exercise all other rights of a
         stockholder except to the extent otherwise provided in the Stock Award.
         Each Stock Award shall be evidenced by a written Agreement in such form
         as the Committee shall determine.

                     ARTICLE IX - AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

9.1      The Board, at any time and from time to time, may amend or terminate
         the Plan. To the extent required by Code section 422 and/or the rules
         of the exchange upon which the Stock is traded, no amendment, without
         approval by the Company's stockholders, shall:

         (a)      alter the group of persons eligible to participate in the
                  Plan;

         (b)      except as provided in Plan Section 3.10, increase the maximum
                  number of shares of Stock which are available for issuance
                  pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan;

         (c)      extend the period during which Incentive Stock Options may be
                  granted beyond the date which is ten (10) years following the
                  Effective Date;

         (d)      limit or restrict the powers of the Committee with respect to
                  the administration of this Plan;

         (e)      change the definition of an Eligible Participant for the
                  purpose of an Incentive Stock Option or increase the limit or
                  the value of shares of Stock for which an Eligible Participant
                  may be granted an Incentive Stock Option;

                                       15

<PAGE>

         (f)      materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants
                  under this Plan; or

         (g)      change any of the provisions of this Article IX.

9.2      The Committee shall be entitled to create, amend or delete appendices
         to this Plan as specified herein.

9.3      No amendment to or discontinuance of this Plan or any provision thereof
         by the Board or the stockholders of the Company shall, without the
         written consent of the Participant, adversely affect, as shall be
         determined by the Committee, any Award previously granted to such
         Participant under this Plan; provided, however, the Committee retains
         the right and power to treat any outstanding Incentive Stock Option as
         a Nonqualified Stock Option as provided herein.

9.4      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the right to
         receive or benefit from any Award, either alone or together with
         payments that a Participant has the right to receive from the Employer,
         would constitute a "parachute payment" under Code section 280G, all
         such payments may be reduced, in the discretion of the Committee, to
         the largest amount that will avoid an excise tax to the Participant
         under Code section 280G.

                      ARTICLE X - MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

10.1     Nothing in the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan shall confer
         upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ of the
         Employer, or to serve as a director or consultant thereof, or interfere
         in any way with the right of the Employer to terminate his or her
         employment or relationship at any time. Unless otherwise agreed to by
         the Board, no Award granted under the Plan shall be deemed salary or
         compensation for the purpose of computing benefits under any employee
         benefit plan or other arrangement of the Employer for the benefit of
         its employees unless the Employer shall determine otherwise. No
         Participant shall have any claim to an Award until it is actually
         granted under the Plan. To the extent that any person acquires a right
         to receive payments from the Company under the Plan, such right shall,
         except as otherwise provided by the Committee, be no greater than the
         right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. All payments to
         be made under the Plan shall be paid from the general funds of the
         Company, and no special or separate fund shall be established and no
         segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment of such amounts,
         except as provided in Article VII with respect to Restricted Stock and
         except as otherwise provided by the Committee.

10.2     The Committee or the Company may make such provisions and take such
         steps as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of
         any taxes which the Employer is required by any law or regulation of
         any governmental authority, whether federal, state or local, domestic
         or foreign, to withhold in connection with any Award or the exercise
         thereof, including, but not limited to, withholding the payment of all
         or any portion of such Award or another Award under this Plan until the
         Participant reimburses the

                                       16

<PAGE>

         Employer for the amount the Employer is required to withhold with
         respect to such taxes, or canceling any portion of such Award or
         another Award under this Plan in an amount sufficient to reimburse
         itself for the amount it is required to so withhold, or selling any
         property contingently credited by the Employer for the purpose of
         paying such Award or another Award under this Plan, in order to
         withhold or reimburse itself for the amount it is required to so
         withhold. The amount withheld shall not exceed the statutory minimum
         federal and state income and employment tax liability arising from the
         exercise transaction.

10.3     The Plan and the grant of Awards shall be subject to all applicable
         federal and state laws, rules, and regulations and to such approvals by
         any United States government or regulatory agency as may be required.

10.4     The terms of the Plan shall be binding upon the Employer, and its
         successors and assigns.

10.5     The Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan for incentive and
         deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a
         Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any
         such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general
         creditor of the Company. In its sole discretion, the Committee may
         authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the
         obligations created under the Plan to deliver shares of Stock or
         payments in lieu of or with respect to Awards under the Plan; provided,
         however, that, unless the Committee otherwise determines with the
         consent of the affected Participant, the existence of such trusts or
         other arrangements is consistent with the "unfunded" status of the
         Plan.

10.6     Each Participant exercising an Award under the Plan agrees to give the
         Committee prompt written notice of any election made by such
         Participant under Code section 83(b), or any similar provision thereof.

10.7     If any provision of this Plan or an Agreement is or becomes or is
         deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or would
         disqualify the Plan or any Agreement under any law deemed applicable by
         the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to
         conform to applicable laws or if it cannot be construed or deemed
         amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially
         altering the intent of the Plan or the Agreement, it shall be stricken
         and the remainder of the Plan or the Agreement shall remain in full
         force and effect.

10.8     The Committee may incorporate additional or alternative provisions for
         this Plan with respect to residents of one or more individual states to
         the extent necessary or desirable under state securities laws. Such
         provisions shall be set out in one or more appendices hereto which may
         be amended or deleted by the Committee from time to time.

                         EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         This EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "AGREEMENT"), is entered into
effective as of December 23, 2002, by and between Mobile Reach Technologies,
Inc. ("MRT" or the "COMPANY") located at 8000 Regency Parkway, Suite 430, Cary,
North Carolina 27511, and Michael J. Hewitt, residing at 102 Selly Manor Court,
Cary, North Carolina 27511 ("EMPLOYEE").

                                   WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Company is engaged in the development, promotion and sales
of integrated information technology solutions; and

         WHEREAS, the Company wishes to employ the Employee in the position of
President and Chief Executive Officer, and the Employee desires to be in the
employment with the Company.

         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the provisions and
mutual promises herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the
parties hereby agree as follows:

1.       ENGAGEMENT. The Company hereby engages and employs the Employee, and
the Employee hereby accepts engagement and employment as the President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, based at the Company's headquarters in Cary,
North Carolina, with principal responsibilities as described in Exhibit A
attached hereto and such other responsibilities as may be assigned to him from
time to time by the Board of Directors and Chairman of the Company, which titles
and responsibilities are subject to change by the Board of Directors from time
to time in accordance with the needs of the Company.

2.       TERM. The Employee's employment shall be for a term of three (3) years
from the effective date of this Agreement (the "INITIAL TERM"), subject to the
termination and severance provisions herein later provided, unless amended or
modified by mutual agreement of the parties. After the expiration of the Initial
Term, this Agreement shall automatically be renewed for additional successive
three-year terms (each, a "RENEWAL TERM" and collectively, the "RENEWAL TERMS")
unless either party gives the other party written notice of its intention not to
renew this Agreement at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the
then-current term. For purposes of this Agreement, the "TERM" shall mean and
include the Initial Term and all Renewal Terms.

3.       EXCLUSIVE SERVICE. The Employee agrees to devote his full time and
attention to the performance of his duties and responsibilities on behalf of the
Company and to comply with all policies and regulations of the Company, except
as otherwise agreed to by the Board of Directors and Chairman.

<PAGE>

4.       COMPENSATION. During the Term of this Agreement, the Employee's
compensation shall be determined and paid as follows:

         (a)      Base Salary. The Employee shall receive an annual base salary
of $200,000, payable in accordance with the Company's payroll practices, and
payment of such salary to begin on March 20, 2003, with Employee's first year
base salary to be pro rated for the remaining number of days in the initial year
of his employment. Annual increases of twenty-five percent (25%) of Employee's
base salary will be made each year during the Initial Term (such increases to be
effective as of January 1 of each year). Thereafter increases of twenty-five
percent (25%) of Employee's base salary will be made, if any, based upon
Employee's satisfactory completion of performance objectives set by the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors for the preceding year, such
increases to be effective as of January 1 of each year during the Term or at
such other date each year during the Term as may be set by the Compensation
Committee in compliance with the Company's human resource policies. During each
renewal term, the Compensation Committee and/or the Board shall evaluate the
Employee's performance on an annual basis, and the Board of Directors shall
adjust the Employee's salary at its sole discretion. Employee may elect to
receive all or any portion of his base salary due in an equivalent amount of
common stock of the Company calculated at its then-current fair market value per
share.

         (b)      Incentive Payments.

                  (i)      Quarterly Payments. Within thirty (30) days after the
end of each calendar quarter during the term of Employee's employment with the
Company, the Company shall pay to the Employee a cash incentive bonus in an
amount equal to two percent (2%) of the cash received [from operations] by the
Company during the previous quarter. In lieu of a cash bonus, Employee may elect
to receive any bonus due in an equivalent amount of common stock of the Company
calculated at its then-current fair market value per share.

                  (ii)     Sale of the Company. In the event of the sale or
transfer of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another
corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary), person or entity (a "Sale")
or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation
or organization as a result of which the holders of the voting capital stock of
the Company prior to such merger or consolidation would receive or hold less
than a majority of the voting capital stock of the company after the merger or
consolidation (a "Merger"), and the total value of the Sale or Merger exceeds
thirty million dollars ($30,000,000), then upon the closing of such Sale or
Merger, Employee shall receive one million dollars ($1,000,000) (the
"Transaction Bonus") out of the proceeds of the Sale or Merger, and payment to
Employee of such Transaction Bonus shall be in the same form as the
consideration paid in the Sale or Merger (either in cash, securities or a
combination of cash or securities, depending upon the consideration paid).

         (c)      Withholding. All applicable federal and state taxes and other
governmental assessments shall be deducted from Employee's base salary and
incentive pay, as required by law.

                                       2

<PAGE>

         (d)      Stock; Options. Upon the date that Employee begins receiving
his base salary, the Employee shall be issued, as a signing bonus, 5,730,953
shares of common stock of the Company at a price of $0.01 per share. Employee
shall also be entitled to receive options to purchase shares of the Company's
Common Stock as determined in the discretion of the Company's Board of
Directors.

         (e)      Benefits. The Employee shall be eligible to participate in the
Company's standard employee benefit program made available to employees of the
Company from time to time and any additional benefits, if any, made available to
officers of the Company, subject to appropriate premium contributions, benefit
elections, and related conditions. In addition, the Employee shall receive [four
(4)] weeks of paid vacation per year and up to six (6) days of paid sick and
personal leave each calendar year which will accrue at the rate of four (4)
hours per month. Sick leave and unused vacation will not carry over from one
year to the next.

         (f)      Insurance. The Company will provide the Employee with standard
health, life and disability coverage provided to other employees, which coverage
may vary from time to time, or may be eliminated provided that the Employee is
treated the same as other employees similarly situated. In addition, subject to
eligibility for good health, the Company will procure a $1,000,000.00 term
insurance policy on the life of Employee payable to Employee's designated
beneficiaries, and the Company shall pay all premiums necessary to maintain such
life insurance policy for so long as Employee remains employed by the Company.

         (g)      Business Expenses. The Company shall reimburse the Employee
for all reasonable expenses incurred in the furtherance of the Company's
business and interests, including travel and entertainment. The Employee agrees
to comply with the expense reporting policies and procedures of the Company.

5.       TERMINATION. This Agreement shall or may be terminated, as the case may
be, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter provided.

         (a)      Severance Payment.

                  (i)      In the event of termination of Employee's employment
by the Company for reasons other than as set forth in Paragraph 5(c) or in the
event of termination of Employee's employment by Employee for "good reason", the
Employee shall receive severance pay in an amount equal to two year's base
salary. This severance payment shall be paid as a lump sum not later than five
(5) business days after the date of Employee's termination or resignation. Upon
termination of employment by the Company as specified in this Paragraph 5(a)(i),
in addition to any vested options Employee may otherwise be entitled to upon the
date of notice of his termination with the Company, Employee shall be entitled
to exercise any remaining portion of the unvested option shares subject to any
stock options granted to the Employee that would have vested in the next twelve
(12) calendar months following the date of notice of termination of employment.
For purposes of this Paragraph 5(a)(i), "good reason" shall mean a substantial
reduction in Employee's duties and responsibilities for the Company, or a
substantial reduction in

                                        3

<PAGE>

Employee's salary, or if Employee is asked to relocate more than fifty (50)
miles from the Raleigh-Cary metropolitan area.

                  (ii)     In the event of termination of Employee's employment
by the Company for reasons set forth in Paragraph 5(c) other than conviction of
a crime against the Company or an employee of the Company, the Employee shall
receive severance pay in an amount equal to one hundred fifty thousand dollars
($150,000). This severance payment shall be paid as a lump sum not later than
five (5) business days after the date of Employee's termination.

                  (iii)    In the event of termination of Employee's employment
by the Company for conviction of a crime against the Company or an employee of
the Company, the Employee shall receive no severance payment.

                  (iv)     In the event of termination of Employee's employment
by the Employee other than for "good reason," the Employee shall receive
severance pay in an amount equal to three (3) months' salary. This severance
payment shall be paid as a lump sum not later than five (5) business days after
the date of Employee's resignation.

                  (v)      In the event of death of the Employee, any severance
pay due to the Employee shall be payable to the Employee's estate.

         (b)      Voluntary Termination. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph
5(a), this Agreement may be voluntarily terminated by either party with thirty
(30) days' prior written notice provided to the other party.

         (c)      Involuntary Termination. The Company may terminate this
Agreement immediately upon written notice to the Employee (or his
representative) in any of the following events: (i) in the event of death of the
Employee; (ii) in the event that the Employee becomes permanently disabled; or
(iii) "for cause" which shall include material breach of the terms of this
Agreement; material breach of the Special Terms of Employment Agreement
(described in Section 6 below); material failure by the Employee to comply with
the policies or directives of the Board of Directors; any illegal or dishonest
action by the Employee that is materially detrimental to the Company; or
material failure to faithfully carry out the duties of his position, provided
that, in any such case, the Company shall provide at least thirty (30) days'
written notice of such breach or failure to perform during which time the
Employee will be given an opportunity to remedy the situation; or (iv)
conviction of Employee of a crime against the Company or an employee of the
Company.

For purposes of this Agreement, the Employee shall be considered permanently
disabled when a qualified medical doctor mutually acceptable to the Company and
the Employee or his personal representative shall have certified in writing
that: (i) he is unable because of medically determinable physical or mental
disability to perform substantially all of his duties for more than one hundred
eighty (180) calendar days measured from the last full day of work; or (ii) by
reason of mental or physical disability, it is unlikely that he will be able,
within one hundred eighty

                                        4

<PAGE>

(180) calendar days, to resume substantially all business duties and
responsibilities in which he was previously engaged and otherwise discharge his
duties under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the continuing obligations
and restrictions imposed on Employee pursuant to this Agreement, including
without limitation pursuant to Paragraph 6 of this Agreement, shall survive
termination of this Agreement and shall exist in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and that Paragraph.

6.       NON-DISCLOSURE, INVENTION, AND NON-COMPETITION. The Employee shall
execute the Company's standard non-disclosure, invention, and non-competition
agreement (sometimes also referred to as Special Terms and Conditions), which
are hereby made a part of this Agreement as Exhibit B attached hereto.

7.       NOTICES. Any notice required to be given shall be in writing personally
delivered by certified mail or registered mail or overnight courier or by
facsimile (receipt confirmed) to the address last shown in the Company's
records.

8.       REFORMATION/SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement shall for
any reason be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
invalid or otherwise unenforceable, such judgment shall not affect, impair or
invalidate the remainder of this Agreement but shall be confined in its
operation to the provision of this Agreement directly involved in the
controversy in which such judgment shall have been rendered. The invalid or
unenforceable provision shall be reformed so that each party shall have the
obligation to perform reasonably alternatively to give the other party the
benefit of its bargain. In the event the invalid or unenforceable provision
cannot be reformed, the other provisions or applications of this Agreement shall
be given full effect, and the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be deemed
struck.

9.       GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
according to the laws of the State of North Carolina, without reference to the
choice of law provisions of such laws.

10.      ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the
parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and the parties hereto have made
no agreements, representations, or warranties relating to the subject matter of
this Agreement which are not set forth herein. No modification of this Agreement
shall be valid unless made in writing and signed by the parties hereto.

11.      BENEFIT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the
benefit of each of the parties hereto, and to their respective representatives.
This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and upon any successor Company.
The Employee may not assign any of his rights or obligations under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors.

12.      INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The Employee understands and agrees that the Company
will suffer irreparable harm in the event that the Employee breaches any of his
obligations under this

                                        5

<PAGE>

Agreement and that monetary damages will be inadequate to compensate the Company
for such breach. Accordingly, the Employee agrees that, in the event of a breach
or threatened breach by the Employee of any of the provisions of this Agreement,
the Company, in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights, remedies,
or damages available to the Company at law or in equity, shall be entitled to a
permanent injunction in order to prevent or to restrain any such breach by the
Employee, or by the Employee's partners, agents, representatives, servants,
employers, employees and/or any and all persons directly or indirectly acting
for or with him; provided such injunction shall not affect the Employee's
ownership rights in the Company or compensation earned or due the Employee.

13.      WARRANTY BY EMPLOYEE. Employee represents and warrants that his
performance of all terms under this Agreement does not result in a breach of any
duty owed by Employee to another, under contract or otherwise, or violate any
confidence of another. Employee agrees not to disclose to Company or induce
Company to use any confidential or proprietary information belonging to any of
the Employee's previous employers or others. Employee warrants that Employee has
executed no prior noncompetition, nondisclosure or confidentiality agreements
that would in any way interfere with his work for or employment by Company.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Executive
Employment Agreement and affixed their seals as of the day and year first above
written.
