In consideration of the promises contained in this Agreement, BRIO agrees to
perform certain services subject to the terms and conditions set forth below and
in the Statement of Work attached as an exhibit and incorporated into this
Agreement by reference.

1.    Statement of Work.  The services which BRIO is to provide under this
Agreement are outlined in the Statement of Work (Exhibit A-1 et. seq.).
                                                              -------
Persons performing the services hereunder will observe any specified Customer
facility rules and regulations.

2.    Fees. The compensation to be paid BRIO pursuant to this Agreement shall be
in consideration for all services rendered. BRIO will be paid as specified in
the software agreement.

3.    Term. The term of this Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and
continue until terminated. Either party may terminate a Statement of Work under
this Agreement or the Agreement itself with or without cause at any time by
giving the other party 30 days' written notice of termination.

Upon the termination of a Statement of Work or of this Agreement for any or for
no reason, neither party will be liable to the other because of such termination
for damages on account of the loss of prospective profits, good will, or on
account of expenditures, leases or commitments in connection with the business
of Customer or of BRIO, or for any other reason whatsoever flowing from such
expiration or termination.

The following obligations will survive termination of this Agreement for any
reason: (a) obligations relating to nonuse and nondisclosure of confidential
information; (b) provisions relating to ownership and nonsolicitation; and (c)
obligations to make payments of amounts that are due under this Agreement.

4.    Ownership. Customer shall have an unlimited non-exclusive license, in
perpetuity, to use the work defined in Exhibit A for Customer under this
Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall be deemed to limit BRIO's
ability to develop and market functionally comparable products or work
deliverables based on the same general concepts, techniques and routines.
Nothing in this Agreement, shall be construed to convey to Customer any rights
of ownership in and to BRIO's software products, training materials, or
consulting methods. All right, title, and interest therein shall at all times
remain the property of BRIO or of BRIO's licensor.

5.    Nondisclosure. BRIO agrees that any specifications, information or data
furnished to BRIO under this Agreement will remain Customer's property and, if
labeled "confidential" or "proprietary," BRIO agrees to treat such materials as
confidential information, both during and after the term of this Agreement. As a
result of this Agreement, BRIO may also provide Customer with similar
confidential information. For convenience, such nonpublic information will be
referred to as "Confidential Information."

Each party agrees that it will not use or duplicate any Confidential Information
provided hereunder unless such use or duplication is necessary to implement this
Agreement. Each party it will use all reasonable efforts to ensure against
disclosure or distribution of any Confidential Information to any third party,
except as specifically authorized by the owner in writing.

Confidential Information shall not include information which (a) is or becomes
publicly available through no act or omission of the receiving party; (b) was in
the receiving party's lawful possession prior to the disclosure and had not been
obtained either directly or indirectly from that party; (c) is lawfully
disclosed to the receiving party by a third party without restriction on
disclosure; (d) is furnished by the owning party to a third party without
restrictions on disclosure; or (e) is independently developed by the receiving

6.    Independent Contractor.  Both parties agree that BRIO is an independent
contractor and, as such, neither BRIO not its personnel shall be considered
employee(s) of Customer. As a consequence, Customer is neither liable nor
responsible for withholding or deducting any sums for federal or state income
taxes, social security, health, workers compensation, and disability insurance
coverage, pension or retirement plan, or the like.

7.    Nonsolicitation. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of one
year thereafter, Customer agrees that it will not solicit for hire, on behalf of

8.    Reference.  BRIO may use Customer's company name as a reference.

9.  Warranty and Disclaimer of Warranties.  BRIO warrants that its services will
be of a professional quality conforming to generally accepted industry standards
and practices.

THE WARRANTY AND CONDITION INDICATED ABOVE IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

10.   Limitation of Liability.  NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF ANTICIPATED
REVENUE OR LOSS RESULTING FROM BUSINESS DISRUPTION), OR DAMAGE TO SYSTEMS, DATA,
OR PROGRAMS, RELATED TO, RESULTING FROM, OR ARISING AS A RESULT OF ITS
OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. In no case will BRIO's liability to Customer exceed
the amounts paid by Customer to BRIO hereunder.

11.   Taxes.  Customer agrees to pay any and all federal, state, or local sales,
use, or property taxes, but excluding income taxes, that may become due in
connection with the services rendered by BRIO, unless Customer certifies an
exemption. Customer shall have the right to contest the amount or validity of
any imposition of taxes by appropriate legal proceedings; however, upon the
termination of such proceedings, Customer shall pay the contested items and any
interest or penalties in the event they are held valid.

12.   Insurance.  BRIO is responsible for maintaining insurance to protect
itself from the following: (a) claims and/or workers compensation or state
disability acts; (b) claims for damages because of bodily injury, sickness, or
death of any of its employees or any other person which arise out of any
negligent act or omission of BRIO, its employees or agents, if any; and (c)
claims for damages because of injury to or destruction of tangible property,
including loss of use resulting therefrom, which arise from any negligent act or
omission of BRIO, its employees or agents, if any.

13.   Equal Employment Opportunity.  BRIO agrees that it does not and will not
discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race,
color, religion, age, sex, disability, national origin, or sexual orientation.

14.   Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed according to the
substantive laws of California, USA, excluding provisions relating to conflicts
of law.

15.   Changes.  If Customer wishes BRIO to perform additional items, or to make
changes to the Statement of Work attached hereto, Customer will notify BRIO in
writing. BRIO shall, upon Customer's written request, provide an estimate of the
cost and schedule impact of performing changing or delivering the Statement of
Work, which estimate will be provided within a mutually agreed time frame. BRIO
will take no further action with respect to any addition or change to the
Statement of Work until BRIO receives written authorization from Customer and
the parties execute an appropriate amendment to the relevant Statement of Work.
Brio shall be under no obligation to carry out such work, at its sole
discretion.  If Customer fails to meet any Customer Responsibilities as defined
in the Statement of Work, and such failure affects BRIO's costs or schedule or
precludes further work by BRIO on the Project until the Customer
Responsibilities are met, then BRIO will notify Customer in writing and
thereafter, BRIO and Customer will promptly cooperate to make an appropriate
written amendment to the Statement of Work.

film, video, and digital, or other electronic media), both during and after
my employment, for whatever purposes the Company deems necessary.

12. Injunctive Relief. You understand that in the event of a breach or
threatened breach of this Agreement by you, the Company will suffer irreparable
harm and will therefore be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce this
Agreement.

13. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed and interpreted in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to or
application of choice of law rules or principles.

14. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is found by

then to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law, the remainder of
this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

15. Termination of Employment. TriNet VCO retains the right to control and
direct your work, its results, and the manner and means by which your work is
accomplished. Your employment with TriNet VCO is at the pleasure of the Board,
and may be terminated only upon the following terms:

       a.   Employment may be terminated without Cause, for any reason
            whatsoever, upon written ninety (90) days' notice upon approval by
            the Board of Directors.

       b.   In lieu of the notice in subparagraph (a), the Company may, upon the
            same procedures, elect to provide one hundred twenty (120) days of
            pay in lieu of notice.

       c.   Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraphs (a) and (b), if in
            the six months following a Change of Control, your employment is
            terminated due to an Involuntary Termination Without Cause or a
            Constructive Termination (a "Covered Termination"), the Company, and
            its successors and assigns, shall be obligated to provide you with a
            lump sum payment equal Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) within
            one (1) month from the date of such Covered Termination, subject to
            applicable tax withholding.

       d.   "Cause" means termination of your employment with the Company for
            any of the following reasons as determined in good faith by the
            Board of Directors: (1) an intentional act which materially injures
            the Company; (2) an intentional refusal or failure to follow lawful
            and reasonable directions of the Board of Directors or an individual
            to whom you reports (as appropriate); (3) a willful and habitual
            neglect of duties; or (4) a conviction of a

ExecEmplAgrmnt.DPD.990706
July 23, 1999
Page 6 of 13
<PAGE>

            felony involving moral turpitude which is reasonably likely to
            inflict or has inflicted material injury on the Company.

       e.   "Change of Control" means that the Company (a) merges or combines
            with any other company or entity and the Company is not the
            surviving corporation, or the stockholders of the Company
            immediately prior to the merger or consolidation do not hold a
            majority of the shares of the resulting corporation; (b) sells all
            or substantially all its assets to any other company or entity; or
            (c) has forty percent (40%) or more of its stock acquired by a
            person and/or affiliates of such person.

       f.   "Constructive Termination" means that you voluntarily terminate
            employment after any of the following are undertaken without your
            express written consent: (1) the assignment to you of any duties or
            responsibilities which result in a diminution or adverse change of
            your position, status or circumstances of employment; provided,
            however, that a mere change in your title or reporting relationship
            shall not constitute a Constructive Termination; (2) a reduction by
            the Company in your base pay in effect at the time of the Change of
            Control; (3) a relocation of your business office to a location more
            than thirty (30) miles from the location at which you performs
            duties as of the date of this offer, except for required travel by
            you on the Company's business to an extent substantially consistent
            with your business travel obligations; (4) any breach by the Company
            of any provision of this Agreement or any other material agreement
            between you and the Company concerning your employment; or (5) any
            failure by the Company to obtain the assumption of the terms and
            conditions of this offer by any successor or assign of the Company.

       g.   "Involuntary Termination Without Cause" means your dismissal or
            discharge other than for Cause. The termination of your employment
            as a result of your death or disability will not be deemed to be an
            Involuntary Termination Without Cause.

            Further, in the event of a Covered Termination, all stock options
            which you have been granted shall fully vest immediately upon the
            occurrence of such an event, and you shall have the right to compel
            the Company, and its successors and assigns, the re-purchase from
            you any stock which you own at the then prevailing market value of
            Company stock plus 25%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Change
            of Control was a transaction that was accounted for as a pooling of
            interests for financial reporting purposes, then the unvested
            portion of such stock options shall not accelerate unless

ExecEmplAgrmnt.DPD.990706
July 23, 1999
Page 7 of 13
<PAGE>

            the Company receives reasonable assurances from the Company's
            independent public accountants (and from the acquiring party's
            independent public accountants) that in their good faith judgment
            such acceleration will not adversely affect the pooling of interests
            accounting treatment of such Change of Control transaction.

       h.   Further, in the event of such a termination, you shall be entitled
            to continue to participate in the those health and welfare plans in
            which you were participating immediately prior to the event, for a
            period of two (2) years thereafter at the expense of TriNet VCO, and
            its successors, and assigns.

       i.   [Company right of first refusal on any shares offered to be sold by
            the Employee during the thirty days following any termination.]

       j.   The Company shall withhold appropriate federal, state, local (and
            foreign, if applicable) income and employment taxes from any
            payments hereunder. You acknowledge that you have been advised by
            the Company to consult with a tax advisor or attorney with respect
            to the tax consequences, if any, of these benefits.

       k.   You agree that upon receipt of the benefits specified herein, you
            shall execute a full and final release in favor of TriNet VCO, its
            officers, directors, employees, agents, and assigns.

16. Informing Subsequent Employers. If your employment is terminated, TriNet VCO
has the right to inform any subsequent employer of your obligations under
Sections 3 - 10 above, and can send a copy of these terms of employment to that
employer.

18. Subsequent Periods Following Your Voluntary termination of Your Employment.
As Vice President of TriNet VCO, you will be in possession, or have access to,
custody of, or a fiduciary relationship to, all of Company's critical,
sensitive, and competitive Confidential and Proprietary Information. Such
information (as defined in PIIA or elsewhere) is extremely valuable and
sensitive, and any use or disclosure would seriously damage the Company. Your
knowledge of such information could be very valuable to any "Competitor" of
Company (as defined below), and if known, very damaging to Company. Further,
despite your best efforts to the contrary, it would impossible for any
Competitor, working with you, to avoid using, either intentionally or
unintentionally, such information to the Competitor's advantage and Company's
detriment. Because of your position with Company, it is extremely likely that
any subsequent work for a Competitor would inevitably result in a direct
violation of your statutory and contractual obligations to Company. Accordingly,
you specifically agree that for a period of six months after any termination of
your employment with Company, you will not engage in any activity on behalf of a
Competitor, and you will not assist any person or entity in competing or
preparing to compete with Company. You specifically agree that this

ExecEmplAgrmnt.DPD.990706
July 23, 1999
Page 8 of 13
<PAGE>

modest restriction will not, in any way, interfere with your ability to earn a
living wage, support your family, if any, and meet your routine financial
obligations. During the term of this six-month non-competition period, the
Company will pay you $3,000 per month as a non-employment contract fee for the
withholding of your services from any such competitive effort.} For purposes of
this Agreement, "Competitor" means any person or entity: (a) in the business of
{Customer activity}; or (b) which develops, produces, prepares, sells, or
distributes products or performs services then in competition with the products
or methods developed, produced, prepared, sold or distributed, or services
rendered by Company within (i) the geographic area and a radius of 200 miles of
any production, sales, or warehouse facility of Company, and (ii) any county in
any State of the United States of America wherein the Company has had, at any
time during your employment, gross sales aggregating in excess of $10,000; or
(c) {specific competitors}.

19. Mandatory Mediation & Arbitration. Unless otherwise prohibited by law or
specified below, any legal action, whether brought in law or equity, arising
from or relating to this Agreement or its enforcement, performance, breach, or
interpretation shall be resolved solely and exclusively by final and binding
arbitration held in San Francisco County, California through Judicial
Arbitration & Mediation Services/Endispute ("JAMS") under the then-existing JAMS
arbitration rules.  However, nothing in this section is intended to prevent
either party from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable
harm pending the conclusion of any such arbitration.  Each party in any such
arbitration shall be responsible for its own attorneys' fees, costs and
necessary disbursement; provided, however, that in the event one party refuses
to arbitrate and the other party seeks to compel arbitration by court order, if
such other party prevails, it shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys'
fees, costs and necessary disbursements.  Pursuant to California Civil Code
Section 1717, each party warrants that it was represented by counsel in the
negotiation and execution of this Agreement, including the attorneys' fees
provision herein.

20. Entire Agreement. This document and its related attachments and exhibits
contain the entire agreement between you and TriNet VCO regarding the terms of
your employment. Any amendment to these terms must be in writing and must be
signed by you and TriNet VCO's President.

I accept the above terms of employment as stated:

                        LIMITED EXCLUSION NOTIFICATION

     This is to notify you in accordance with Section 2872 of the California
Labor Code that the foregoing Agreement between you and the Company does not
require you to assign or offer to assign to the Company any invention that you
developed entirely on your own time without using the Company's equipment,
supplies, facilities or trade secret information except for those inventions
that either:

     1.    Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the
invention to the Company's business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated
research or development of the Company;

     2.    Result from any work performed by you for the Company.

     To the extent a provision in the foregoing Agreement purports to require
you to assign an invention otherwise excluded from the preceding paragraph, the
provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable.

     This limited exclusion does not apply to any patent or invention covered by
a contract between the Company and the United States or any of its agencies
requiring full title to such patent or invention to be in the United States.

     I acknowledge receipt of a copy of this notification.

                              By:
                                     (Printed Name of Employee)
