<PAGE>

         2.3 INSILICON'S PARTICIPATION IN PHOENIX PLANS.

otherwise in this Agreement, or as Phoenix and inSilicon may mutually agree,

that inSilicon is a Participating Company in any Phoenix Plan(s), Phoenix
shall continue to administer, or cause to be administered, in accordance with
their terms and applicable law, such Phoenix Plan(s), and shall have the sole
and absolute discretion and authority to interpret the Phoenix Plan(s), as
set forth therein. Except as specified otherwise in this Agreement, nothing

inSilicon shall perform with respect to its participation in the Phoenix

or any procedures adopted pursuant thereto, including (without limitation):
(i) assisting in the administration of claims, to the extent requested by the
claims administrator of the applicable Phoenix Plan; (ii) cooperating fully
with Phoenix Plan auditors, benefit personnel and benefit vendors; (iii)
preserving the confidentiality of all financial arrangements Phoenix has or

             (d) TERMINATION OF PARTICIPATING COMPANY STATUS. Except as
otherwise may be mutually agreed upon by Phoenix and inSilicon, effective as
of such date as inSilicon establishes a comparable Plan (as specified in
Section 2.2 or otherwise in this Agreement), inSilicon shall automatically

such automatic cessation is prohibited by applicable law.

         2.4 DISPUTES. All disputes arising out of, related to or resulting
from this Agreement, including the interpretation hereof, shall be resolved
in accordance with the procedures set forth in the IPO Agreement.

         2.5 FOREIGN EMPLOYEES. inSilicon and Phoenix each authorize their
non-U.S. subsidiaries to enter into separate local agreements with the
counterpart of the other party ("Local Agreements"). inSilicon and Phoenix
intend that the Local Agreements will generally specify the terms under which
Phoenix and inSilicon agree to allocate between them all assets, liabilities
and responsibilities relating to, and arising from Foreign Plans and certain
employment matters. To the extent, however, that any such Local Agreement
does not address a particular

                                      5
<PAGE>

principle or plan, then the intent of the parties relating to comparable U.S.
matters or issues as reflected in this Agreement shall govern (to the extent
permitted by law).

                                  ARTICLE III

                            DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN

         3.1 401(k) PLAN. Effective from and after the Separation Date as of
such date as Phoenix and inSilicon may mutually agree, inSilicon shall adopt
a 401(k) plan (the "inSilicon 401(k) Plan").

             (a) 401(k) TRUST: ASSETS AND LIABILITIES. Effective from and
after the Separation Date as of such date(s) as inSilicon and Phoenix may
mutually agree: (i) the inSilicon 401(k) Plan may assume and be solely
responsible for all Liabilities for or relating to inSilicon Employees under
the Phoenix 401(k) Plan (such date referred to as the "401(k) Transfer
Date"); and (ii) Phoenix may cause the accounts of the inSilicon Employees
under the Phoenix 401(k) Plan that are held by its related trust as of the
401(k) Transfer Date to be transferred to the inSilicon 401(k) Plan and its
related trust, and inSilicon shall cause such transferred accounts to be
accepted by such plan and its related trust. As soon as reasonably
practicable after the Separation Date, inSilicon shall use its commercially
reasonable best efforts to enter into agreements satisfactory to inSilicon to
accomplish such assumption and transfer, the maintenance of the necessary
participant records, the appointment of an initial trustee under the
inSilicon 401(k) Plan, and the engagement of an initial recordkeeper under
the inSilicon 401(k) Plan. inSilicon and Phoenix each agree to use their
commercially reasonable best efforts to accomplish this spin-off.

             (b) NO DISTRIBUTION TO INSILICON EMPLOYEES. The inSilicon 401(k)
Plan and the Phoenix 401(k) Plan shall provide that no distribution of
account balances shall be made to any inSilicon Employee on account of the
inSilicon Group ceasing to be an Affiliate of the Phoenix Group.

                                   ARTICLE IV

Liabilities for or relating to inSilicon Employees under the Phoenix Health
and Welfare Plans shall be reimbursed by inSilicon on a pro rata basis.

claims incurred under the Phoenix Health and Welfare Plans by inSilicon
Employees but only to the extent that inSilicon has not established and
assumed administrative responsibility for a comparable Plan. Any
determination made or settlements entered into by Phoenix with respect to
such claims shall be final and binding.

reasonable best efforts for and on behalf of inSilicon to procure, effective
as of such date as Phoenix and inSilicon mutually agree upon: (a) third party
ASO contracts; (b) group insurance policies; and (c) HMO agreements. In each
case, inSilicon shall, as of such date as Phoenix and inSilicon may mutually
agree upon, establish, adopt and/or implement such contracts, agreements or
arrangements.

                                   ARTICLE V

                             EQUITY COMPENSATION

         5.1 STOCK OPTIONS. After the Separation Date and as of such date as
inSilicon and Phoenix may mutually agree, inSilicon may offer to inSilicon
Employees inSilicon Options in exchange for the cancellation of Phoenix
Options. Any such exchange shall generally preserve the economic value of the
cancelled Phoenix Options and shall preserve the terms and features of the
Phoenix Options. This Agreement shall not in any way limit the ability of
inSilicon to offer additional inSilicon Options or other inSilicon equity
incentives to inSilicon Employees.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                           ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS

         6.1 PAYMENT OF LIABILITIES, PLAN EXPENSES AND RELATED MATTERS.

             (a) SHARED COSTS. inSilicon shall pay its share, as determined
by Phoenix in good faith, of any contributions made to any trust maintained
in connection with an Phoenix Plan while inSilicon is a Participating Company
in that Phoenix Plan.

             (b) CONTRIBUTIONS TO TRUSTS. With respect to Phoenix Plans to
which inSilicon Employees make contributions, Phoenix shall use reasonable
procedures to determine inSilicon Liabilities associated with such Plans,
taking into account such contributions, settlements, refunds and similar
payments.

             (c) ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES NOT CHARGEABLE TO A TRUST. To the
extent not otherwise agreed to by Phoenix and inSilicon, and to the extent
not chargeable to a trust established in connection with an Phoenix Plan,
inSilicon shall be responsible, through either direct payment or
reimbursement to Phoenix, for its allocable share of expenses incurred by
Phoenix in the administration of (i) the Phoenix Plans while inSilicon
participates in such Plans, and (ii) the inSilicon Plans, to the extent
Phoenix administers such Plans. For this purpose, inSilicon's allocable share
of such expenses shall be that portion of the total of such expenses as the
number of inSilicon Employees who are participants in the applicable Plan
bears to the total number of participants in such Plan.

         6.2 SHARING OF PARTICIPANT INFORMATION. Phoenix and inSilicon shall
share, or cause to be shared, all participant information that is necessary
or appropriate for the efficient and accurate administration of each of the
Phoenix Plans and the inSilicon Plans during the respective periods

         6.3 REPORTING AND DISCLOSURE COMMUNICATIONS TO PARTICIPANTS. While
inSilicon is a Participating Company in the Phoenix Plans, inSilicon shall
take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary or appropriate to
facilitate the distribution of all Phoenix Plan-related communications and
materials to employees, participants and beneficiaries, including (without
limitation) summary plan descriptions and related summaries of material
modification(s), summary annual reports, investment information,
prospectuses, notices and enrollment material for the Phoenix Plans and

opinion from the DOL.

         6.6 FIDUCIARY MATTERS. Phoenix and inSilicon each acknowledge that
actions contemplated to be taken pursuant to this Agreement may be subject to
fiduciary duties or standards of conduct under ERISA or other applicable law,
and no party shall be deemed to be in violation of this Agreement if such

faith determination that to do so would violate such a fiduciary duty or
standard.

         6.7 CONSENT OF THIRD PARTIES. If any provision of this Agreement is
dependent on the consent of any third party (such as a vendor) and such
consent is withheld, Phoenix and inSilicon shall use their commercially
reasonable best efforts to implement the applicable provisions of

negotiate in good faith to implement the provision in a mutually satisfactory
manner.

Employees who, on the Separation Date, are employed in the U.S. pursuant to a
work or training visa which authorizes employment only by the Phoenix Group
shall remain employed by the Phoenix Group until the visa is amended or a new
visa is granted to authorize employment by the inSilicon Group and, at that

similar rights as all other inSilicon Employees. During the period from the
Separation Date until the amended or new visa is issued, such employee shall

costs and expenses relating to compensation and benefits.

his or her obligations under such non-competition guideline, agreement, or
policy.

         7.3 CONSISTENCY OF TAX POSITIONS; DUPLICATION. Phoenix and inSilicon
shall individually and collectively make commercially reasonable best efforts

shall take consistent reporting and withholding positions with respect to any
such taxes or contributions.

         7.4 PERSONNEL AND PAY RECORDS. For the period beginning on the
Separation Date and ending on any substantially complete disposition of
Phoenix's ownership interest in inSilicon (and for such additional period as
Phoenix and inSilicon may mutually agree), Phoenix shall make reasonably
available to inSilicon, subject to applicable laws on confidentiality and
data protection, all current and historic forms, documents or information, no
matter in what format stored, relating to pre-Separation Date personnel,
medical records, and payroll information with respect to inSilicon Employees.

provision of this Agreement, the Separation Agreement, or any Ancillary
Agreement shall be construed to

                                      9
<PAGE>

create any right, or accelerate entitlement, to any compensation or benefit
whatsoever on the part of any inSilicon Employee or other future, present or
former employee of Phoenix or inSilicon under any Phoenix Plan or inSilicon
Plan or otherwise.

         7.6 PRE-SEPARATION SERVICE. As of the Separation Date, the legal
responsibility for claims relating to pre-Separation Date Service remain with
Phoenix. All claims with respect to post-Separation Date Service of inSilicon
Employees with inSilicon shall be the exclusive legal responsibility of
Phoenix.

between the parties other than the relationship set forth herein.

affected in any manner materially adverse to either party. Upon such
determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or
incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith
to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties

2.     ALLOCATION OF TAX LIABILITIES

       2.1    GENERAL RULE

              2.1.1  PHOENIX LIABILITY

              Phoenix shall be liable for all Taxes not specifically allocated
to inSilicon under this Agreement.  Phoenix shall indemnify and hold inSilicon
harmless from and against any liabilities and Taxes for which Phoenix is liable
under this Agreement.

              2.1.2  INSILICON LIABILITY

              inSilicon shall be liable for and shall indemnify and hold Phoenix
harmless from and against any liability for Taxes which are allocated to
inSilicon under this Agreement.

       2.2    ALLOCATION OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX

              With respect to any Phoenix Consolidated Return filed after
November 30, 1999 (i.e., the date inSilicon commenced operations as a separate
legal entity) that includes the results of inSilicon, a pro forma Tax Return
shall be prepared for inSilicon as if it were a separate entity and not a member
of the Phoenix consolidated group, and inSilicon shall be liable to Phoenix for
the amount of Tax reflected on such return.  In addition, with respect to any
such period, to the extent that inSilicon generates losses that reduce the U.S.
federal income Tax liability of Phoenix, then Phoenix shall make a payment to
inSilicon equal to the amount of the Tax savings it receives as a result of the
inSilicon losses.  In making these calculations, both inSilicon and Phoenix will
be liable to the other party only for Tax Items arising after November 30, 1999,
and neither party shall be liable to the other for any Tax arising from the
operation of the inSilicon Business prior to such date.  The payments for Tax
liability and for losses required by this section shall be paid pursuant to the
provisions of section 5 of this Agreement.

       2.3    ALLOCATION OF STATE INCOME TAXES

              With respect to any Phoenix combined or unitary state Tax Return
filed after November 30, 1999 (i.e., the date inSilicon commenced operations as
a separate legal entity) that includes the results of inSilicon, Phoenix and
inSilicon shall each be treated as if it filed a combined or unitary return
based solely on its own income, apportionment factors and its other Tax Items,
without any reapportionment based on the factors of the other.  With respect to
any such period, inSilicon shall be liable to Phoenix for the amount of Tax
reflected on the pro form Tax Return prepared under these principles.  In
addition, to the extent that inSilicon generates losses that reduce the state
Tax

                                       3

<PAGE>

liability of Phoenix, then Phoenix shall make a payment to inSilicon equal to
the amount of the Tax savings it receives as a result of inSilicon's losses. In
making these calculations, both inSilicon and Phoenix will be liable to the
other party only for Tax Items arising after November 30, 1999, and neither
party shall be liable to the other for any Tax arising from the operation of
the inSilicon Business prior to such date. The payments for Tax liability and
for losses required by this section shall be paid pursuant to the provisions of
section 5 of this Agreement.

       2.4    ALLOCATION OF TAX ADJUSTMENTS

              If there is any adjustment of the U.S. federal or state income tax
liability with respect to any Phoenix Consolidated Return or any combined or
unitary Tax Return for any Pre-IPO Period or any Straddle Period, Phoenix shall
be liable to inSilicon for any resulting decrease in Tax liability allocable to
inSilicon in accordance with the method prescribed in sections 2.2 and 2.3 of
this Agreement, and inSilicon shall be liable to Phoenix for any resulting
increase in Tax liability allocable to inSilicon.

       2.5    TRANSACTION TAXES

              inSilicon shall be liable for all Taxes resulting from the IPO.

       2.6    PRORATION OF TAXES FOR STRADDLE PERIODS

              In the case of any Straddle Period, the Taxes shall be
apportioned between the Pre-IPO Period and the Post-IPO Period in accordance
with the principles of Treas. Reg. Section 1.1502-76(b) as reasonably
interpreted and applied by the parties hereto.  No election shall be made under
Treas. Reg. Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) (relating to the ratable allocation of
a year's items).  If the IPO Date is not a date on which there is a closing of
the financial accounting records for inSilicon, the provisions of Treas. Reg.
Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(iii) will be applied to ratably allocate the items
(other than "extraordinary items" as defined in Treas. Reg. Section
1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii)(C)) for the month which includes the IPO Date.

3.     PREPARATION AND FILING OF TAX RETURNS

       3.1    GENERAL

              Except as otherwise provided herein, all Tax Returns (including
the pro forma Tax Returns required by section 2 of this Agreement) shall be
prepared and filed when due (including extensions) by the persons obligated to
file such Tax Returns under the Code or applicable Tax Law.

       3.2    CONSISTENT TAX ACCOUNTING PRACTICES

              Any Tax Return for Pre-IPO Period or any Straddle Period and any
Tax Return for Post-IPO Period to the extent Tax Items reported on such Tax
Return might reasonably affect Tax Items reported on any Tax Return for any
Pre-IPO Period shall be prepared in accordance with past Tax accounting

                                       4

<PAGE>

practices used with respect to the Tax Returns in question, unless such past
practices are no longer permissible under the Code or other applicable Tax Law,
and to the extent any such Tax Items are not covered by past practices or are
covered by past practices that are no longer permissible in accordance with
reasonable tax accounting practices selected by the party preparing the Tax
Return.

       3.3    RIGHT TO REVIEW RETURNS

              The party preparing any Tax Return shall make such Tax Return and
the related work papers available for review by the other parties to this
Agreement, if requested, to the extent such Tax Return relates to Taxes for
which the requesting party may be liable.  The party preparing Tax Returns under
this Agreement shall use its reasonable best efforts to make such Tax Returns
available for review as required under this paragraph sufficiently in advance of
the due date for filing such Tax Returns to provide the requesting party with a
meaningful opportunity to analyze and comment on such Tax Returns and have such
Tax Returns modified before filing.  The parties shall attempt in good faith to
resolve any issues arising out of the review of such Tax Returns.

4.     TAX BENEFITS ARISING PRIOR TO THE CAPITALIZATION OF INSILICON

       Phoenix will not make any payments to inSilicon as compensation for
favorable Tax Items, if any, generated by the inSilicon Business prior to
December 1, 1999.

5.     TAX PAYMENTS AND INTERCOMPANY BILLINGS

       5.1    COMPUTATION AND PAYMENT OF TAX LIABILITY

              In the case of a Tax Return for any Pre-IPO Period or Straddle
Period filed after the IPO Date, the party required to prepare the Tax Return
under this Agreement shall compute the total Tax liability and the Tax liability
of the other party, if any, at least three days prior to the due date for the
Tax Return (including extensions).  The party preparing any such Tax Return
shall pay any such Tax on a timely basis, and the other party shall pay any
resulting liability, as determined under this Agreement (taking into account any
payments or deposits already made and paid over by such party), within ten days
of such payment.

       5.2    PAYMENT OF TAX UNDERPAYMENTS ARISING FROM ADJUSTMENTS

              In the case of any adjustments to any Tax Return for any Pre-IPO
Period or any Straddle Period, inSilicon and Phoenix agree that they will make
payments for any resulting tax liabilities in accordance with Section 2.4 of
this Agreement within 30 days of the date the adjusted Tax was paid by or
refunded to Phoenix.

6.     ASSISTANCE AND COOPERATION AND RECORDS

       6.1    GENERAL

              After the IPO Date, each of the parties shall cooperate (and cause
their respective affiliates to cooperate) with each other and with each other's
agents, including accounting firms and legal counsel, in connection with Tax
matters relating to the parties including (i) preparation and filing of Tax
Returns, (ii) determining the liability for and amount of any Taxes due
(including estimated Taxes) or the right to and amount of any refund of Taxes,
(iii) examinations of Tax Returns, and (iv) any administrative or judicial
proceeding in respect of Taxes assessed or proposed to be assessed.  Such
cooperation shall include making all information and documents in their
possession relating to the other party available to such other.  Each of the
parties shall also make available to each other, as reasonably requested and
available, personnel (including officers, directors, employees and agents of the
parties) responsible for preparing, maintaining, and interpreting information
and documents relevant to Taxes, and personnel reasonably required as witnesses
or for purposes of providing information or documents in connection with any
administrative or judicial proceedings relating to Taxes.  Any information or
documents provided under this Section 6 shall be kept confidential by the
parties receiving the information or documents, except as may otherwise be
necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or in connection with any
administrative or judicial proceedings relating to Taxes.

       6.2    RETENTION OF TAX RECORDS

              The parties shall preserve and keep all other Tax Records
relating to Taxes for Pre-IPO Periods and Straddle Periods, for so long as
the contents thereof may become material in the administration of any matter
under the Code or other applicable Tax Law until the prior of (i) the
expiration of any applicable statutes of limitation, and (ii) the time a copy
of such Tax Records are provided to the other party pursuant to section 6.3
of this Agreement.  If prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of
limitation and providing a copy of such Tax Records pursuant to section 6.3
of this Agreement, a party reasonably determines that any Tax Records which
it is required to preserve and keep under this Section 6.2 are no longer
material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other
applicable Tax Law, such party may dispose of such records upon 90 days prior
notice to the other party.  Such notice shall include a list of the records
to be disposed of describing in reasonable detail each file, book, or other
record accumulation being disposed.  The notified party shall have the
opportunity, at their cost and expense, to copy or remove, within such 90-day
period, all or any part of such Tax Records.

       6.3    ACCESS TO TAX RECORDS

              Phoenix shall provide to inSilicon within 90 days of the IPO Date
a copy of all Tax Records in its possession that reflect any Tax Items of
inSilicon.  For each Tax Return filed by Phoenix after the IPO Date that
reflects Tax Items of inSilicon, Phoenix shall provide inSilicon with a copy of
the Tax Return and

                                       6

<PAGE>

the related Tax Records within tens days of filing such Tax Return. For each
Tax Return filed by inSilicon after the IPO Date that reflects Tax Items of
Phoenix, inSilicon shall provide Phoenix with a copy of the Tax Return and the
related Tax Records within tens days of filing such Tax Return.

7.     TAX CONTESTS

       7.1    NOTICE

              Each of the parties shall provide prompt notice to the other party
of any pending or threatened Tax Contest of which it becomes aware related to
Taxes for Tax Periods for which it is indemnified by the other party hereunder.
Such notice shall contain factual information (to the extent known) describing
any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by
copies of any notice and other documents received from any Tax Authority in
respect of any such matters.  If an indemnified party has knowledge of an
asserted Tax liability with respect to a matter for which it is to be
indemnified hereunder and such party fails to provide the indemnifying party
with prompt notice of such asserted Tax liability, then (i) if the indemnifying
party is precluded from contesting the asserted Tax liability in any forum as a
result of the failure to give prompt notice, the indemnifying party shall have
no obligation to indemnify the indemnified party for any Taxes arising out of
such asserted Tax liability, and (ii) if the indemnifying party is not precluded
from contesting the asserted Tax liability in any forum, but such failure to
give prompt notice results in a monetary detriment to the indemnifying party,
then any amount which the indemnifying party is otherwise required to pay the
indemnified party pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of
such detriment.

       7.2    CONTROL

              Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, Phoenix shall
have complete control of all Tax Contests relating to Tax Returns filed by
Phoenix.  To the extent that any Tax Contest could result in indemnity liability
to inSilicon under this Agreement, inSilicon shall have the right to participate
in the defense or prosecution of the Tax Contest, including any decision to
extend the statute of limitations.  To the extent that any issues arising in
such a Tax Contest (including any decision to extend the statute of limitations)
