2. DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE IN TERMS.

         A. Modification(s) to Loan Agreement

                  1.       Subsections  (i) and (iii) under Section 6.7 entitled
                           "Financial  Covenants" are hereby amended to read, in
                           their entirety as follows:

                           (i) Quick  Ratio.  a ratio of Quick Assets to Current
                           Liabilities  plus  marketable  securities of at least
                           2.00 to 1.00

                           (ii)  Borrower  will have a minimum  net profit of $1
                           for each  quarter,  except that Borrower may suffer a
                           loss not to exceed  $1,000,000 for the fiscal quarter
                           ending June 30, 2000.

                  2        The   following   defined  term  under  Section  13.1
                           entitled  "Definitions" is hereby amended as follows:

                           "Revolving Maturity Date" is June 30, 2001.

         B. Waiver of Financial Covenant Default(s)

                  1.       Bank hereby waives Borrower's  existing default under
                           the Loan Agreement by virtue of Borrower's failure to
                           comply  with the  Profitability  covenant as of month
                           ended March 31,  2000.  Bank's  waiver of  Borrower's
                           compliance of this  covenant  shall apply only to the
                           foregoing period. Accordingly, for the quarter ending
                           June 30, 2000,  Borrower shall be in compliance  with
                           this covenant as amended herein.

                           Bank's agreement to waive the above-described default
                           (1) in no way  shall be deemed  an  agreement  by the
                           Lender  to  waive  Borrower's   compliance  with  the
                           above-described  covenant  as of all other  dates and
                           (2) shall not limit or impair the  Lender's  right to
                           demand strict  performance of this covenant as of all
                           other  dates and (3)  shall  not limit or impair  the
                           Lender's  right to demand strict  performance  of all
                           other covenants as of any date.

3. CONSISTENT  CHANGES.  The Existing Loan Documents are hereby amended wherever
necessary to reflect the changes  described  above.

<PAGE>

4. NO DEFENSES OF BORROWER.  Borrower (and each  guarantor  and pledgor  signing
below)  agrees  that,  as of the date  hereof,  it has no  defenses  against the
obligations to pay any amounts under the Indebtedness.

5.  PAYMENT  OF LOAN  FEE.  Borrower  shall  pay to Bank a fee in the  amount of
Sixteen  Thousand  Dollars  ($16,000)  (the "Loan  Fee") plus all  out-of-pocket
expenses.

6. CONTINUING VALIDITY.  Borrower (and each guarantor and pledgor signing below)
understands  and agrees that in  modifying  the existing  Indebtedness,  Bank is
relying upon Borrower's  representations,  warranties,  and  agreements,  as set
forth in the Existing Loan Documents.  Except as expressly  modified pursuant to
this Loan  Modification  Agreement,  the terms of the  Existing  Loan  Documents
remain unchanged and in full force and effect. Bank's agreement to modifications
to the existing Indebtedness pursuant to this Loan Modification  Agreement in no
way shall obligate Bank to make any future  modifications  to the  Indebtedness.
Nothing in this Loan  Modification  Agreement shall constitute a satisfaction of
the  Indebtedness.  It is the intention of Bank and Borrower to retain as liable
parties all makers and endorsers of Existing Loan Documents, unless the party is
expressly released by Bank in writing. No maker,  endorser, or guarantor will be
released  by  virtue  of this  Loan  Modification  Agreement.  The terms of this
paragraph apply not only to this Loan  Modification  Agreement,  but also to all
subsequent loan modification agreements.

         This Loan  Modification  Agreement  is  executed  as of the date  first
written above.

                      CHANGE OF CONTROL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

         This Change of Control  Severance  Agreement (the  "Agreement") is made
and entered  into  effective  as of  ___________________,  2000 (the  "Effective
Date"),  by  and  between   ___________________________   (the  "Employee")  and
Spectrian   Corporation,   a  Delaware  corporation  (the  "Company").   Certain
capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 1 below.

                                 R E C I T A L S

         A. It is expected  that the Company from time to time will consider the
possibility  of a Change of Control.  The Board of Directors of the Company (the
"Board") recognizes that such consideration can be a distraction to the Employee
and can cause the Employee to consider alternative employment opportunities.

         B. The Board  believes that it is in the best  interests of the Company
and its  shareholders  to provide the Employee with an incentive to continue his
employment and to maximize the value of the Company upon a Change of Control for
the benefit of its shareholders.

         C. In order to provide the Employee  with enhanced  financial  security
and  sufficient  encouragement  to remain with the Company  notwithstanding  the
possibility of a Change of Control,  the Board believes that it is imperative to
provide  the  Employee  with  certain  severance  benefits  upon the  Employee's
termination of employment following a Change of Control.

                                    AGREEMENT

         In  consideration  of the mutual  covenants  herein  contained  and the
continued employment of Employee by the Company, the parties agree as follows:

         1.  Definition  of  Terms.  The  following  terms  referred  to in this
Agreement shall have the following meanings:

                  (a)  Cause.  "Cause"  shall  mean  (i)  any  act  of  personal
dishonesty taken by the Employee in connection with his  responsibilities  as an
employee which is intended to result in substantial  personal  enrichment of the
Employee,  (ii)  Employee's  conviction  of a felony which the Board  reasonably
believes  has had or will have a material  detrimental  effect on the  Company's
reputation or business,  (iii) a willful act by the Employee  which  constitutes
misconduct  and  is  injurious  to  the  Company,  and  (iv)  continued  willful
violations by the Employee of the  Employee's  obligations  to the Company after
there has been delivered to the Employee a written demand for  performance  from
the Company which describes the basis for the Company's belief that the Employee
has not substantially performed his duties.

                  (b)  Change of  Control.  "Change of  Control"  shall mean the
occurrence of any of the following  events:

<PAGE>

                           (i) the approval by  shareholders of the Company of a
merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation,  other than a
merger or  consolidation  which  would  result in the voting  securities  of the
Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by
remaining  outstanding  or by being  converted  into  voting  securities  of the
surviving  entity)  more than  fifty  percent  (50%) of the total  voting  power
represented  by the voting  securities of the Company or such  surviving  entity
outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; (ii) any approval by
the shareholders of the Company of a plan of complete liquidation of the Company
or an  agreement  for  the  sale  or  disposition  by  the  Company  of  all  or
substantially all of the Company's  assets;  (iii) any "person" (as such term is
used in Sections  13(d) and 14(d) of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934,  as
amended)  becoming the  "beneficial  owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under said
Act), directly or indirectly,  of securities of the Company  representing 50% or
more of the total voting power  represented  by the Company's  then  outstanding
voting securities; or (iv) a change in the composition of the Board, as a result
of which  fewer  than a  majority  of the  directors  are  Incumbent  Directors.
"Incumbent  Directors"  shall mean directors who either (A) are directors of the
Company as of the date hereof, or (B) are elected, or nominated for election, to
the Board with the  affirmative  votes of at least a majority of those directors
whose  election  or  nomination  was  not in  connection  with  any  transaction
described in subsections  (i), (ii) or (iii) or in connection  with an actual or
threatened proxy contest relating to the election of directors of the Company.

                  (c) Involuntary Termination.  "Involuntary  Termination" shall
mean (i) without the Employee's express written consent, a significant reduction
of  the  Employee's  duties,  position  or  responsibilities   relative  to  the
Employee's duties,  position or  responsibilities in effect immediately prior to
such  reduction,  or the removal of the Employee from such position,  duties and
responsibilities,  unless the  Employee  is  provided  with  comparable  duties,
position and  responsibilities;  (ii)  without the  Employee's  express  written
consent,  a  substantial  reduction,  without  good  business  reasons,  of  the
facilities and perquisites  (including  office space and location)  available to
the  Employee  immediately  prior to such  reduction;  (iii) a reduction  by the
Company of the Employee's  base salary or target bonus as in effect  immediately
prior to such reduction; (iv) a material reduction by the Company in the kind or
level of employee  benefits to which the Employee is entitled  immediately prior
to such reduction with the result that the Employee's  overall  benefits package
is significantly  reduced;  (v) without the Employee's  express written consent,
the relocation of the Employee to a facility or a location more than thirty-five
(35) miles from his current  location;  (vi) any  purported  termination  of the
Employee by the Company which is not effected for Cause or for which the grounds
relied  upon are not valid;  or (vii) the  failure of the  Company to obtain the
assumption of this Agreement by any successors contemplated in Section 5 below.

         2. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate upon the date that
all obligations of the parties hereto under this Agreement have been satisfied.

         3. At-Will  Employment.  The Company and the Employee  acknowledge that
the Employee's  employment is and shall continue to be at-will, as defined under
applicable  law. If the

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Employee's  employment  terminates  for any reason,  the  Employee  shall not be
entitled to any payments,  benefits,  damages, awards or compensation other than
as provided by this  Agreement,  or as may  otherwise be  established  under the
Company's  then  existing  employee  benefit  plans or  policies  at the time of
termination.

         4. Change of Control and Severance Benefits.

                  (a) Termination Following A Change of Control.

                           (i) Severance Payments.  If the Employee's employment
with the Company  terminates as a result of an Involuntary  Termination  [at any
time] after a Change of Control,  then the Employee shall be entitled to receive
a sum equal to twelve  (12)  months of his or her  annualized  base  salary  and
targeted bonus (as in effect  immediately prior to the Change of Control).  Such
severance  payments  shall be paid  bi-weekly in  accordance  with the Company's
normal  payroll  practices.  In  addition,  the Company  shall  continue to make
available to the Employee and Employee's spouse and dependents covered under any
group  health plans or life  insurance  plans of the Company on the date of such
termination of employment,  all group health,  life and other similar  insurance
plans in which  Employee or such Covered  Dependents  participate on the date of
the  Employee's  termination.

                           (ii)   Option   Acceleration.   If   the   Employee's
employment with the Company terminates as a result of an Involuntary Termination
[at any time] after a Change of Control,  then the vesting and exercisability of
each option  granted to the  Employee by the Company  (the  "Options")  shall be
automatically  accelerated in full.

                           (iii) Other Termination. If the Employee's employment
with the Company terminates other than as a result of an Involuntary Termination
[after a Change of Control],  then the Employee shall not be entitled to receive
severance or other  benefits  hereunder,  but may be eligible for those benefits
(if any) as may then be established under the Company's then existing  severance
and  benefits  plans and policies at the time of such  termination.

                  (b) Accrued Wages and Vacation;  Expenses.  Without  regard to
the reason for, or the timing of, Employee's termination of employment:  (i) the
Company  shall pay the Employee any unpaid base salary due for periods  prior to
the date of  termination;  (ii) the Company  shall pay the  Employee  all of the
Employee's  accrued and unused  vacation  through the date of  termination;  and
(iii)  following  submission  of proper  expense  reports by the  Employee,  the
Company shall reimburse the Employee for all expenses reasonably and necessarily
incurred by the Employee in connection with the business of the Company prior to
the date of termination.  These payments shall be made promptly upon termination
and within the period of time mandated by law.

         5. Successors.

                  (a)  Company's  Successors.   Any  successor  to  the  Company
(whether   direct  or  indirect   and  whether  by  purchase,   lease,   merger,
consolidation,  liquidation  or  otherwise) to all or  substantially  all of the
Company's  business and/or assets shall assume the Company's  obligations  under
this Agreement and agree  expressly to perform the Company's  obligations  under
this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be
required to perform such  obligations  in the absence of a  succession.  For all
purposes under this Agreement, the term

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

"Company"  shall include any successor to the Company's  business  and/or assets
which  executes  and  delivers  the  assumption   agreement  described  in  this
subsection  (a) or  which  becomes  bound  by the  terms  of this  Agreement  by
operation of law.

                  (b) Employee's Successors.  Without the written consent of the
Company,  Employee  shall not assign or transfer this  Agreement or any right or
obligation  under this Agreement to any other person or entity.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing,  the terms of this Agreement and all rights of Employee hereunder
shall inure to the benefit of, and be  enforceable  by,  Employee's  personal or
legal   representatives,    executors,   administrators,    successors,   heirs,
distributees, devisees and legatees.

         6. Notices.

                  (a) General. Notices and all other communications contemplated
by this  Agreement  shall be in  writing  and  shall be deemed to have been duly
given when personally  delivered or when mailed by U.S.  registered or certified
mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. In the case of the Employee,
mailed  notices  shall  be  addressed  to him at the home  address  that he most
recently  communicated  to the Company in writing.  In the case of the  Company,
mailed notices shall be addressed to its corporate headquarters, and all notices
shall be directed to the attention of its Secretary.

                  (b) Notice of Termination.  Any termination by the Company for
Cause  or  by  the  Employee  as a  result  of a  voluntary  resignation  or  an
Involuntary  Termination shall be communicated by a notice of termination to the
other party  hereto given in  accordance  with this  Section.  Such notice shall
indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, shall
set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances  claimed to provide a
basis for  termination  under the  provision  so  indicated.  The failure by the
Employee to include in the notice any fact or circumstance  which contributes to
a showing of Involuntary  Termination  shall not waive any right of the Employee
hereunder or preclude the Employee from asserting such fact or  circumstance  in
enforcing his rights hereunder.

         7. Arbitration.

                  (a) Except as provided in Section  7(d) below,  any dispute or
controversy  arising out of,  relating to, or in connection with this Agreement,

termination thereof,  shall be settled by binding arbitration to be held in Palo
Alto,  California,  in accordance  with the National Rules for the Resolution of
Employment Disputes then in effect of the American Arbitration  Association (the
"Rules").  The arbitrator may grant  injunctions or other relief in such dispute
or controversy.  The decision of the arbitrator  shall be final,  conclusive and
binding  on the  parties  to the  arbitration.  Judgment  may be  entered on the
arbitrator's decision in any court having jurisdiction.

                  (b) The arbitrator(s) shall apply California law to the merits
of any  dispute or claim,  without  reference  to  conflicts  of law rules.  The
arbitration  proceedings shall be governed by federal arbitration law and by the
Rules,  without  reference to state arbitration law. Employee hereby consents to
the personal  jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in California
for any

                                      -4-

terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause.
