       and

    .  to promote the success of the Company's business.

shall become available for future grant under the Plan.

   4. Administration of the Plan.

   (a) Procedure.

      (i) Multiple Administrative Bodies.  The Plan may be administered by
   different Committees with respect to different groups of Service Providers.

      (ii) Section 162(m).  To the extent that the Administrator determines it
   to be desirable to qualify Options granted hereunder as "performance-based
   compensation" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Plan
   shall be administered by a Committee of two or more "outside directors"
   within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.

      (iii) RULE 16b-3.  To the extent desirable to qualify transactions
   hereunder as exempt under Rule 16b-3, the transactions contemplated
   hereunder shall be structured to satisfy the requirements for exemption
   under Rule 16b-3.

      (iv) Other Administration.  Other than as provided above, the Plan shall
   be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee, which committee shall
   be constituted to satisfy Applicable Laws.

   (b) Powers of the Administrator.  Subject to the provisions of the Plan, and
in the case of a Committee, subject to the specific duties delegated by the
Board to such Committee, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its
discretion:

      (i) to determine the Fair Market Value;

      (ii) to select the Service Providers to whom Options and Stock Purchase
   Rights may be granted hereunder;

      (iii) to determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by
   each Option and Stock Purchase Right granted hereunder;

      (iv) to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan;

      (v) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the
   terms of the Plan, of any Option or Stock Purchase Right granted hereunder.
   Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise
   price, the time or times when Options or Stock Purchase Rights may be
   exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting
   acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or
   limitation regarding any option or Stock Purchase Right or the shares of
   Common Stock relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the
   Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;

                                      4

<PAGE>

      (vi) to reduce the exercise price of any Option or Stock Purchase Right
   to the then current Fair Market value if the Fair Market Value of the Common
   Stock covered by such Option or Stock Purchase Right shall have declined
   since the date the Option or Stock Purchase Right was granted;

      (vii) to institute an Option Exchange Program; provided, however, that
   any Option Exchange Program instituted after April 9, 2002 shall require
   stockholder approval;

      (viii) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and awards granted
   pursuant to the Plan;

      (ix) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to
   the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established
   for the purpose of qualifying for preferred tax treatment under foreign tax
   laws;

      (x) to modify or amend each option or Stock Purchase Right (subject to
   Section 15(c) of the Plan), including the discretionary authority to extend
   the post-termination exercisability period of options longer than is
   otherwise provided for in the Plan;

      (xi) to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any
   instrument required to effect the grant of an Option or Stock Purchase Right
   previously granted by the Administrator;

      (xii) to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for
   administering the Plan.

   (c) Effect of Administrator's Decision.  The Administrator's decisions,
determinations and interpretations shall be final and binding on all Optionees
and any other holders of Options or Stock Purchase Rights.

   5. Eligibility.  Nonstatutory Stock Options and Stock Purchase Rights may be
granted to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to
Employees.

   6. Limitations.

   (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, no person who is
an officer or Director will be eligible to receive a grant of Option or Stock
Purchase Right hereunder until such time as this Plan is approved by the
stockholders of the Company.

   (b) Each Option shall be designated in the Option Agreement as either an
Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding
such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the
Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the
first time by the optionee during Any calendar year (under all plans of the
Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such options shall be
treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 6(a),
Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they
were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the
time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.

                                      5

<PAGE>

   (c) Neither the Plan nor any Option or stock Purchase Right shall confer
upon an Optionee any right with respect to continuing the Optionee's
relationship as a Service Provider with the Company, nor shall they interfere
in any way with the optionee's right or the Company's right to terminate such
relationship at any time, with or without cause.

   (d) The following limitations shall apply to grants of options:

      (i) No Service Provider shall be granted, in any fiscal year of the
   Company, Options to purchase more than 125,000 Shares.

      (ii) In connection with his or her initial service, a Service Provider
   may be granted Options to purchase up to an additional 125,000 Shares which
   shall not count against the limit set forth in subsection (i) above.

      (iii) The foregoing limitations shall be adjusted proportionately in
   connection with any change in the Company's capitalization as described in
   Section 13.

      (iv) If an option is cancelled in the same fiscal year of the Company in
   which it was granted (other than in connection with a transaction described
   in Section 13), the cancelled option will be counted against the limits set
   forth in subsections W and (ii) above. For this purpose, if the exercise
   price of an option is reduced, the transaction will be treated as a
   cancellation of the option and the grant of a new Option.

   7. Term of Plan.  Subject to Section 19 of the Plan, the Plan shall become
effective upon its adoption by the Board. It shall continue in effect for a
term of ten (10) years unless terminated earlier under Section 15 of the Plan.

   8. Term of Option.  The term of each Option shall be stated in the option
Agreement. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the term shall be ten (10)
years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the
Option Agreement. Moreover, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to
an Optionee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock
representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of
all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of
the Incentive Stock Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant or
such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement.

   9. Option Exercise Price and Consideration.

   (a) Exercise Price.  The per share exercise price for the Shares to be
issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be determined by the
Administrator, subject to the following:

      (i) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option

          (A) granted to an Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock
       Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%)
       of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent
       or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110%
       of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

                                      6

<PAGE>

          (B) granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in
       paragraph (A) immediately above, the per Share exercise price shall be
       no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of
       grant.

      (ii) In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, the per Share exercise
   price shall be determined by the Administrator. In the case of a
   Nonstatutory Stock option intended to qualify as "performance-based
   compensation" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the per
   Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per
   Share on the date of grant.

      (iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per
   Share exercise price of less than 100% of the Fair Market value per Share on
   the date of grant pursuant to a merger or other corporate transaction.

   (b) Waiting Period and Exercise Dates.  At the time an Option is granted,
the Administrator shall fix the period within which the Option may be exercised
and shall determine any conditions which must be satisfied before the Option
may be exercised.

   (c) Form of Consideration.  The Administrator shall determine the acceptable
form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of
payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator shall
determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Such
consideration may consist entirely of:

      (i) cash;

      (ii) check;

      (iii) promissory note;

      (iv) other Shares which (A) in the case of Shares acquired upon exercise
   of an option, have been owned by the Optionee for more than six months on
   the date of surrender, and (B) have a Fair Market Value on the date of
   surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which
   said Option shall be exercised;

      (v) consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise
   program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan;

      (vi) a reduction in the amount of any Company liability to the optionee,
   including any liability attributable to the Optionee's participation in any
   Company-sponsored deferred compensation program or arrangement;

      (vii) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or

      (viii) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of
   Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

                                      7

<PAGE>

   10. Exercise of Option.

   (a) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder.  Any Option granted
hereunder shall be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such
times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set
forth in the Option Agreement. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise,
vesting of options granted hereunder shall be suspended during any unpaid leave
of absence. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

   An Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) written
or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Option Agreement) from
the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for the
Shares with respect to which the option is exercised. Full payment may consist
of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and
permitted by the Option Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of
an option shall be issued in the name of the optionee or, if requested by the
Optionee, in the name of the Optionee and his or her spouse. Until the Shares
are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company
or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or
receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect
to the Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company
shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the option is
exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which
the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided
in Section 13 of the Plan.

   Exercising an option in any manner shall decrease the number of Shares
thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the
Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.

   (b) Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider.  If an Optionee
ceases to be a Service Provider, other than upon the Optionee's death or
Disability, the Optionee may exercise his or her Option within such period of
time as is specified in the option Agreement to the extent that the Option is
vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of
the term of such option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the absence
of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain
exercisable for three (3) months following the Optionee's termination. If, on
the date of termination, the Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire
Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the option shall revert
to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does not exercise his or her
option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option shall
terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

   (c) Disability of Optionee.  If an Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider
as a result of the Optionee's Disability, the Optionee may exercise his or her
Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to
the extent the option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event
later than the expiration of the term of such option as set forth in the Option
Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the
Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Optionee's
termination. If, on the date of termination, the Optionee is not vested as to
his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the
Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does

                                      8

<PAGE>

not exercise his or her option within the time specified herein, the Option
shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such option shall revert to the Plan.

   (d) Death of Optionee.  If an Optionee dies while a Service Provider, the
Option may be exercised within such period of time as is specified in the
Option Agreement (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such
Option as set forth in the Notice of Grant), by the Optionee's estate or by a
person who acquires the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance,
but only to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death. In the
absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain
exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Optionee's termination. If, at
the time of death, the Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option,
the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the option shall immediately
revert to the Plan. The Option may be exercised by the executor or
administrator of the Optionee's estate or, if none, by the person(s) entitled
to exercise the Option under the Optionee's will or the laws of descent or
distribution. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified
herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall
revert to the Plan.

   (e) Buyout Provisions.  The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out
for a payment in cash or Shares an Option previously granted based on such
terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to
the Optionee at the time that such offer is made.

   11. Stock Purchase Rights.

   (a) Rights to Purchase.  Stock Purchase Rights may be issued either alone,
in addition to, or in tandem with other awards granted under the Plan and/or
cash awards made outside of the Plan. After the Administrator determines that
it will offer Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan, it shall advise the offeree
in writing or electronically, by means of a Notice of Grant, of the terms,
conditions and restrictions related to the offer, including the number of
Shares that the offeree shall be entitled to purchase, the price to be paid,
and the time within which the offeree must accept such offer. The offer shall
be accepted by execution of a Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement in the form
determined by the Administrator.

   (b) Repurchase Option.  Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the
Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase option
exercisable upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the purchaser's
service with the Company for any reason (including death or Disability). The
purchase price for Shares repurchased pursuant to the Restricted Stock Purchase
Agreement shall be the original price paid by the purchaser and may be paid by
cancellation of any indebtedness of the purchaser to the Company. The
repurchase option shall lapse at a rate determined by the Administrator.

   (c) Other Provisions.  The Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement shall contain
such other terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as
may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

   (d) Rights as a Stockholder.  Once the Stock Purchase Right is exercised,
the purchaser shall have the rights equivalent to those of a stockholder, and
shall be a stockholder when his or her purchase is entered upon the records of
the duly authorized transfer

                                      9

<PAGE>

agent of the Company. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right
for which the record date is prior to the date the Stock Purchase Right is
exercised, except as provided in Section 13 of the Plan.

   12. Non-Transferability of Options and Stock Purchase Rights.  Unless
determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Option or Stock Purchase Right
may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of
in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and
may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee. If
the Administrator makes an Option or Stock Purchase Right transferable, such
Option or Stock Purchase Right shall contain such additional terms and
conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.

   13. Adjustments upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution, Merger or Asset
Sale.

   (a) Changes in Capitalization.  Subject to any required action by the
stockholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
each outstanding Option and Stock Purchase Right, and the number of shares of
Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to
which no options or Stock Purchase Rights have yet been granted or which have
been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Option or Stock
Purchase Right, as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each
such outstanding option or Stock Purchase Right, shall be proportionately
adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common
Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend,
combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or
decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without
receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of
any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been
"effected without receipt of consideration." Such adjustment shall be made by
the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and
conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of
shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of
any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with
respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option
or Stock Purchase Right.

   (b) Dissolution or Liquidation.  In the event of the proposed dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify each Optionee as
soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction.
The Administrator in its discretion may provide for an Optionee to have the
right to exercise his or her Option until ten (10) days prior to such
transaction as to all of the Optioned Stock covered thereby, including Shares
as to which the option would not otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the
Administrator may provide that any Company repurchase option applicable to any
Shares purchased upon exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right shall lapse
as to all such Shares, provided the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes
place at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been
previously exercised, an Option or Stock Purchase Right will terminate
immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

   (c) Merger or Asset Sale.  In the event of a merger of the Company with or
into another corporation, or the sale of substantially all of the assets of the
Company, each outstanding Option and Stock Purchase Right shall be assumed or
an equivalent option or right

                                      10

<PAGE>

substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the
successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to
assume or substitute for the Option or Stock Purchase Right, the Optionee shall
fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option or Stock Purchase Right
as to all of the optioned Stock, including Shares as to which it would not
otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Option or Stock Purchase Right
becomes fully vested and exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in
the event of a merger or sale of assets, the Administrator shall notify the
Optionee in writing or electronically that the Option or Stock Purchase Right
shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from
the date of such notice, and the Option or Stock Purchase Right shall terminate
upon the expiration of such period. The Option or Stock Purchase Right shall be
considered assumed if, following the merger or sale of assets, the Optionee has
the right to purchase or receive the same consideration the shareholders of the
Company received in the merger or sale of assets. If the shareholders of the
Company received any consideration other than common stock of the successor
corporation, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor
corporation, provide that the consideration received upon exercise of the
Option or Stock Purchase Right will be solely the common stock of the successor
corporation, with the exercise price of the option and the number of shares
subject to the option adjusted for the exchange rate used in the merger or sale
of assets. If the shareholders of the Company received any consideration other
than common stock of the successor corporation, the exchange rate will reflect
the fair market value of any such consideration received.

   14. Date of Grant.  The date of grant of an Option or Stock Purchase Right
shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the
determination granting such option or Stock Purchase Right, or such other later
date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall
be provided to each Optionee within a reasonable time after the date of such
grant.

   15. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

   (a) Amendment and Termination.  The Board may at any time amend, alter,
suspend or terminate the Plan.

   (b) Stockholder Approval.  The Company shall obtain stockholder approval of
any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with
Applicable Laws.

   (c) Effect of Amendment or Termination.  No amendment, alteration,
suspension or termination of the Plan shall impair the rights of any Optionee,
unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Optionee and the Administrator,
which agreement must be in writing and signed by the optionee and the Company.
Termination of the Plan shall not affect the Administrator's ability to
exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Options granted
under the Plan prior to the date of such termination.

   16. Conditions upon Issuance of Shares.

   (a) Legal Compliance.  Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise
of an Option or Stock Purchase Right unless the exercise of such Option or
Stock Purchase Right and the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply
with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel
for the Company with respect to such compliance.

                                      11

<PAGE>

   (b) Investment Representations.  As a condition to the exercise of an Option
or Stock Purchase Right, the Company may require the person exercising such
Option or Stock Purchase Right to represent and warrant at the time of any such
exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without
any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of
counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.

   17. Inability to Obtain Authority.  The inability of the Company to obtain
authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is
deemed by the Company's counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale
of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect
of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite
authority shall not have been obtained.

   18. Reservation of Shares.  The Company, during the term of this Plan, will
at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be
sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

   19. Stockholder Approval.  The Plan shall be subject to approval by the
stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan
is adopted. Such stockholder approval shall be obtained in the manner and to
the degree required under Applicable Laws.

                           PHOENIX TECHNOLOGIES LTD.
                       2001 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

                            Dated November 16, 2001

   1. Establishment of Plan.  Phoenix Technologies Ltd., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), proposes to grant options for purchase of the Company's Common
Stock to eligible employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as hereinafter
defined) pursuant to this 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("Plan"). For
purposes of this Plan, "Parent Corporation" and "Subsidiary" (collectively,
"Subsidiaries") shall have the same meanings as "parent corporation" and
"subsidiary corporation" in Sections 424(e) and 424(f), respectively, of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Company intends
this Plan to qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under Section 423 of
the Code (including any amendments to or replacements of such Section), and
this Plan shall be so construed. Any term not expressly defined in this Plan
but defined for purposes of Section 423 of the Code shall have the same
definition herein. A total of 200,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock are
reserved for issuance under this Plan. Such number shall be subject to
adjustments effected in accordance with Section 14 of this Plan.

   2. Purpose.  The purpose of this Plan is to provide employees of the Company
and Subsidiaries designated by the Board of Directors of the Company (the
"Board") as eligible to participate in this Plan with a convenient means of
acquiring an equity interest in the Company through payroll deductions, to
enhance such employees' sense of participation in the affairs of the Company
and Subsidiaries, and to provide an incentive for continued employment.

   3. Administration.  This Plan shall be administered by a committee appointed
by the Board (the "Committee") consisting of at least two (2) members of the
Board, each of whom is a Disinterested Person as defined in Rule 16b-3(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). As used in this Plan,
references to the "Committee" shall mean either such committee or the Board if
no committee has been established. Board members who are not Disinterested
Persons may not vote on any matters affecting the administration of this Plan,
but any such member may be counted for determining the existence of a quorum at
any meeting of the Board. Subject to the provisions of this Plan and the
limitations of Section 423 of the Code or any successor provision in the Code,
all questions of interpretation or application of this Plan shall be determined
by the Board and its decisions shall be final and binding upon all
participants. Members of the Board shall receive no compensation for their
services in connection with the administration of this Plan, other than
standard fees as established from time to time by the Board for services
rendered by Board members serving on Board committees. All expenses incurred in
connection with the administration of this Plan shall be paid by the Company.

   4. Eligibility.  Any employee of the Company or the Subsidiaries is eligible
to participate in an Offering Period (as hereinafter defined) under this Plan
except the following:

      (a) employees who are not employed by the Company or Subsidiaries before
   the beginning of such Offering Period;

<PAGE>

      (b) employees who are customarily employed for less than twenty (20)
   hours per week;

      (c) employees who are customarily employed for less than five (5) months
   in a calendar year;

      (d) employees who, together with any other person whose stock would be
   attributed to such employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code, own
   stock or hold options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more
   of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the
   Company or any of its Subsidiaries or who, as a result of being granted an
   option under this Plan with respect to such Offering Period, would own stock
   or hold options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of
   the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the
   Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

   5. Offering Dates.  The offering periods of this Plan (each, an "Offering
Period") shall be of periods not to exceed the maximum period permitted by
Section 423 of the Code. Until determined otherwise by the Committee,

      (a) Offering Periods shall commence each June 1 and December 1 of each
   calendar year, with the first Offering Period beginning March 1, 2002 and

      (b) each Offering Period shall consist of one (1) six-month purchase
   period (individually, a "Purchase Period") during which payroll deductions
   of the participants are accumulated under this Plan.

   The first business day of each Offering Period is referred to as the
"Offering Date". The last business day of each Purchase Period is referred to
as the "Purchase Date". The Board shall have the power to change the duration
of Offering Periods or Purchase Periods with respect to future offerings
without stockholder approval if such change is announced at least fifteen (15)
days prior to the scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period or Purchase
Period to be affected.

   6. Participation in This Plan.  Eligible employees may become participants
in an Offering Period under this Plan on the first Offering Date after
satisfying the eligibility requirements by delivering a subscription agreement
to the Company's Stock Administration Department or any other department
designated by the Stock Administration Department or an officer of the Company
("Stock Administration") not later than the last day of the month before such
Offering Date unless a later time for filing the subscription agreement
authorizing payroll deductions is set by the Board for all eligible employees
with respect to a given Offering Period. An eligible employee who does not
deliver a subscription agreement to Stock Administration by such date after
becoming eligible to participate in such Offering Period shall not participate
in that Offering Period or any subsequent Offering Period unless such employee
enrolls in this Plan by filing a subscription agreement with Stock
Administration not later than the last day of the month preceding a subsequent
Offering Date. Once an employee becomes a participant in an Offering Period,
such employee will automatically participate in the Offering Period commencing
immediately following the last day of the prior Offering Period unless the
employee withdraws or is deemed to withdraw from this Plan or terminates
further participation in the Offering Period as set forth in Section 11 below.
Such participant is not required to file any additional subscription agreement
in order to continue participation in this Plan, unless such participant
withdraws from this Plan.

                                      2

<PAGE>

   7. Grant of Option on Enrollment.  Enrollment by an eligible employee in
this Plan with respect to an Offering Period will constitute the grant (as of
the Offering Date) by the Company to such employee of an option to purchase on
the Purchase Date up to that number of shares of Common Stock of the Company
determined by dividing

      (a) the amount accumulated in such employee's payroll deduction account
   during such Purchase Period by

      (b) the lower of (i) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value
   of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Offering Date (but in no
   event less than the par value of a share of the Company's Common Stock), or
   (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a share of the
   Company's Common Stock on the Purchase Date (but in no event less than the
   par value of a share of the Company's Common Stock);

Provided, however, that the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock
subject to any option granted pursuant to this Plan shall not exceed the lesser
of (a) the maximum number of shares set by the Board pursuant to Section 10(c)
below with respect to the applicable Offering Period, or (b) the maximum number
of shares which may be purchased pursuant to Section 10(b) below with respect
to the applicable Offering Period. The fair market value of a share of the
Company's Common Stock shall be determined as provided in Section 8 hereof.

   8. Purchase Price.  The purchase price per share at which a share of Common
Stock will be sold in any Offering Period shall be eighty-five percent (85%) of
the lesser of

      (a) the fair market value on the Offering Date; or

      (b) the fair market value on the Purchase Date;

Provided, however, that in no event may the purchase price per share of the
Company's Common Stock be below the par value per share of the Company's Common
Stock. For purposes of this Plan, the term "fair market value" on a given date
shall mean the closing price of the Company's Common Stock as reported on a
stock exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System on the applicable date
(or the average closing price over the number of consecutive trading days
preceding such date as the Board shall deem appropriate. If the Company's stock
is not reported on such exchange or such system or if there is no public market
for the Company's Common Stock, the fair market value of the Company's Common
Stock shall be as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, exercised in
good faith.

   9. Payment of Purchase Price; Changes in Payroll Deductions--Issuance of
Shares.

   (a) The purchase price of the shares is accumulated by regular payroll
deductions made during each Offering Period. The deductions are made either (i)
as a specified dollar amount per pay period, but not less than $5.00 per pay
period and not greater than an amount equal to ten percent of the participant's
Compensation as of the first day of such Offering Period or (ii) a percentage
of the participant's compensation in one percent (1%) increments not less than
one percent (2%) and not greater than ten percent (10%) or (iii) such lower
limit set by the Committee. As used herein,

                                      3

<PAGE>

"Compensation" shall mean all base salary, wages, commissions, and overtime,
and draws against commissions; provided, however, that for purposes of
determining a participant's compensation, any election by such participant to
reduce his or her regular cash remuneration under Sections 125 or 401(k) of the
Code shall be treated as if the participant did not make such election. Payroll
deductions shall commence on the first payday following the Offering Date and
shall continue to the end of the Offering Period unless sooner altered or
terminated as provided in this Plan.

   (b) A participant may lower (but not increase) the rate of payroll
deductions during an Offering Period by filing with Stock Administration a new
authorization for payroll deductions, in which case the new rate shall become
effective for the next payroll period commencing more than fifteen (15) days
after Stock Administration's receipt of the authorization (or such earlier
payroll after such receipt as the Company's payroll department is able to
accommodate) and shall continue for the remainder of the Offering Period unless
changed as described below. Such change in the rate of payroll deductions may
be made at any time during an Offering Period, but not more than one (1) change
may be made effective during any Offering Period. A participant may lower the
rate of payroll deductions to zero for the remainder of the Offering Period. A
participant may increase or decrease the rate of payroll deductions for any
subsequent Offering Period by filing with Stock Administration a new
authorization for payroll deductions not later than the last day of the month
before the beginning of such Offering Period. A participant who has decreased
the rate of withholding to zero will be deemed to have withdrawn from the Plan
effective at the beginning of the Offering Period after the one in which the
rate of withholding was reduced to zero and must file a new authorization for
payroll deductions not later than the last day of the month before the
beginning of the next Offering Period in which the participant wishes to
participate.

   (c) All payroll deductions made for a participant are credited to his or her
account under this Plan and are deposited with the general funds of the
Company. No interest accrues on the payroll deductions. All payroll deductions
received or held by the Company may be used by the Company for any corporate
purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll
deductions.

   (d) On each Purchase Date, so long as this Plan remains in effect and
provided that the participant has not submitted to Stock Administration a
signed and completed withdrawal form before that date which notifies the
Company that the participant wishes to withdraw from that Offering Period under
this Plan and have all payroll deductions accumulated in the account maintained
on behalf of the participant as of that date returned to the participant, the
Company shall apply the funds then in the participant's account to the purchase
of whole shares of Common Stock reserved under the option granted to such
participant with respect to the Offering Period to the extent that such option
is exercisable on the Purchase Date. The purchase price per share shall be as
specified in Section 8 of this Plan. Any cash remaining in a participant's
account after such purchase of shares shall be refunded to such participant in
cash, without interest. In the event that this Plan has been oversubscribed,
all funds not used to purchase shares on the Purchase Date shall be returned to
the participant, without interest. No Common Stock shall be purchased on a
Purchase Date on behalf of any employee whose participation in this Plan has
terminated prior to such Purchase Date.

                                      4

<PAGE>

   (e) As promptly as practicable after the Purchase Date, the Company shall
arrange the delivery to each participant of a certificate representing the
shares purchased upon exercise of his option.

   (f) During a participant's lifetime, such participant's option to purchase
shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her. The participant will have
no interest or voting right in shares covered by his or her option until such
option has been exercised. Shares to be delivered to a participant under this
Plan will be registered in the name of the participant or in the name of the
participant and his or her spouse or in the name of any stock brokerage or
other firm with whom the Company has established an account for the participant
for the automatic deposit of shares purchased under this Plan.

   10. Limitations on Shares to be Purchased.

   (a) No employee shall be entitled to purchase stock under this Plan at a
rate which, when aggregated with his or her rights to purchase stock under all
other employee stock purchase plans of the Company or any Subsidiary, exceeds
$25,000 in fair market value, determined as of the Offering Date (or such other
limit as may be imposed by the Code) for each calendar year in which the
employee participates in this Plan.

   (b) No more than two hundred percent (200%) of the number of shares
determined by using eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a
share of the Company's Common Stock on the Offering Date as the denominator may
be purchased by a participant on any single Purchase Date.

   (c) No employee shall be entitled to purchase more than the Maximum Share
Amount (as defined below) on any single Purchase Date. Not less than thirty
(30) days prior to the commencement of any Offering Period, the Board may, in
its sole discretion, set a maximum number of shares which may be purchased by
any employee at any single Purchase Date (hereinafter the "Maximum Share
Amount"). In no event shall the Maximum Share Amount exceed the amounts
permitted under Section 10(b) above. If a new Maximum Share Amount is set, then
all participants must be notified of such Maximum Share Amount not less than
fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement of the next Offering Period. Once
the Maximum Share Amount is set, it shall continue to apply with respect to all
succeeding Purchase Dates and Offering Periods unless revised by the Board as
set forth above.

   (d) If the number of shares to be purchased on a Purchase Date by all
employees participating in this Plan exceeds the number of shares then
available for issuance under this Plan, then the Company will make a pro rata
allocation of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as shall be
reasonably practicable and equitable. In such event, the Company shall give
written notice of such reduction of the number of shares to be purchased under
a participant's option to each participant affected thereby.

   (e) Any payroll deductions accumulated in a participant's account which are
not used to purchase stock due to the limitations in this Section 10 shall be
returned to the participant as soon as practicable after the end of the
applicable Purchase Period, without interest.

   11. Withdrawal.

                                      5

<PAGE>

   (a) Each participant may withdraw from an Offering Period under this Plan by
signing and delivering to Stock Administration a written notice to that effect
on a form provided for such purpose. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time
at least fifteen (15) days prior to the end of an Offering Period.

   (b) Upon withdrawal from this Plan, the accumulated payroll deductions shall
be returned to the withdrawn participant, without interest, and his or her
interest in this Plan shall terminate. In the event a participant voluntarily
elects to withdraw from this Plan, he or she may not resume his or her
participation in this Plan during the same Offering Period, but he or she may
participate in any subsequent Offering Period by filing a new authorization for
payroll deductions in the same manner as set forth above for initial
participation in this Plan.

   12. Termination of Employment.  Termination of a participant's employment
for any reason, including retirement, death or the failure of a participant to
remain an eligible employee, immediately terminates his or her participation in
this Plan. In such event, the payroll deductions credited to the participant's
account will be returned to him or her or, in the case of his or her death, to
his or her legal representative, without interest. For purposes of this Section
12, an employee will not be deemed to have terminated employment or failed to
remain in the continuous employ of the Company in the case of sick leave,
military leave, or any other leave of absence approved by the Board; provided
that such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days or
reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or
statute.

   13  Return of Payroll Deductions.  In the event a participant's interest in
this Plan is terminated by withdrawal, termination of employment or otherwise,
or in the event this Plan is terminated by the Board, the Company shall
promptly deliver to the participant all payroll deductions credited to such
participant's account. No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions of a
participant in this Plan.

   14. Capital Changes.

   (a) Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the
number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under this Plan which
has not yet been exercised and the number of shares of Common Stock which have
been authorized for issuance under this Plan but have not yet been placed under
option (collectively, the "Reserves"), as well as the price per share of Common
Stock covered by each option under this Plan which has not yet been exercised,
shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company resulting from a
stock split or the payment of a stock dividend (but only on the Common Stock)
or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of any consideration by the
Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of
the Company shall not be deemed to have been "effected without receipt of
consideration"; and provided further, that the price per share of Common Stock
shall not be reduced below its par value per share. Such adjustment shall be
made by the Board, whose determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
Except as expressly provided herein, no issue by the Company of shares of stock
of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class,
shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect
to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an option.

                                      6

<PAGE>

   (b) In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company,
the Offering Period will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of
such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Board. The Board may, in
the exercise of its sole discretion in such instances, declare that the options
under this Plan shall terminate as of a date fixed by the Board and give each
participant the right to exercise his or her option as to all of the optioned
stock, including shares which would not otherwise be exercisable. In the event
of a proposed sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or
the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation,
each option under this Plan shall be assumed or an equivalent option shall be
substituted by such successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such
successor corporation, unless the Board determines, in the exercise of its sole
discretion and in lieu of such assumption or substitution, that the participant
shall have the right to exercise the option as to all of the optioned stock. If
the Board makes an option exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in
the event of a merger, consolidation or sale of assets, the Board shall notify
the participant that the option shall be fully exercisable for a period of
twenty (20) days from the date of such notice, and the option will terminate
upon the expiration of such period.

   (c) The Board may, if it so determines in the exercise of its sole
discretion, also make provision for adjusting the Reserves, as well as the
price per share of Common Stock covered by each outstanding option, in the
event that the Company effects one or more reorganizations, recapitalizations,
rights offerings or other increases or reductions of shares of its outstanding
Common Stock, or in the event of the Company being consolidated with or merged
into any other corporation; provided, that the price per share of Common Stock
shall not be reduced below its par value per share.

   15.  Nonassignability.  Neither payroll deductions credited to a
participant's account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option
or to receive shares under this Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or
otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and
distribution or as provided in Section 22 hereof) by the participant. Any such
attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be void and
without effect.

   16. Reports.  Individual accounts will be maintained for each participant in
this Plan. Each participant shall receive promptly after the end of each
Purchase Period a report of his or her account setting forth the total payroll
deductions accumulated, the number of shares purchased, the per share price
thereof and the remaining cash balance, if any, carried forward to the next
Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be.

   17. Notice of Disposition.  Each participant shall notify the Company if the
participant disposes of any of the shares purchased in any Offering Period
pursuant to this Plan if such disposition occurs within two (2) years from the
Offering Date or within one (1) year from the Purchase Date on which such
shares were purchased (the "Notice Period"). The Company may require that,
unless such participant is disposing of any of such shares during the Notice
Period, such participant shall keep the certificates representing such shares
in his or her name (and not in the name of a nominee) during the Notice Period.
The Company may, at any time during the Notice Period, place a legend or
legends on any certificate representing shares acquired pursuant to this Plan
requesting the Company's transfer agent to notify the Company of any transfer
of the shares. The obligation of the participant to provide such notice shall
continue notwithstanding the placement of any such legend on the certificates.

                                      7

<PAGE>

   18. No Rights to Continued Employment.  Neither this Plan nor the grant of
any option hereunder shall confer any right on any employee to remain in the
employ of the Company or any Subsidiary, or restrict the right of the Company
or any Subsidiary to terminate such employee's employment.

   19. Equal Rights and Privileges.  All eligible employees shall have equal
rights and privileges with respect to this Plan so that this Plan qualifies as
an "employee stock purchase plan" within the meaning of Section 423 or any
successor provision of the Code and the related regulations. Any provision of
this Plan which is inconsistent with Section 423 or any successor provision of
the Code shall, without further act or amendment by the Company or the Board,
be reformed to comply with the requirements of Section 423. This Section 19
shall take precedence over all other provisions in this Plan.

   20. Notices.  All notices or other communications by a participant to the
Company under or in connection with this Plan shall be deemed to have been duly
given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by
the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

   21. Term; Stockholder Approval.  This Plan has been approved and adopted by
the Board. Any changes to the Plan which materially increase the benefits
hereunder will not be effective until approved by the stockholders of the
Company, in any manner permitted by applicable corporate law (including Rule
16b-3 of the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. This Plan shall continue until the
earlier to occur of (a) termination of this Plan by the Board (which
termination may be effected by the Board at any time), (b) issuance of all of
the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under this Plan, or (c) ten
(10) years from the adoption of this Plan by the Board.

   22. Designation of Beneficiary.

   (a) A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to
receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant's account under this
Plan in the event of such participant's death subsequent to the end of an
Purchase Period but prior to delivery to him of such shares and cash. In
addition, a participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is
to receive any cash from the participant's account under this Plan in the event
of such participant's death prior to a Purchase Date.

   (b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the participant at any
time by written notice. In the event of the death of a participant and in the
absence of a beneficiary validly designated under this Plan who is living at
the time of such participant's death, the Company shall deliver such shares or
cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the participant, or if
no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the
Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares or cash to
the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the participant, or
if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other
person as the Company may designate.

   23. Conditions upon Issuance of Shares; Limitation on Sale of
Shares.  Shares shall not be issued with respect to an option unless the
exercise of such option

                                      8

<PAGE>

and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto shall comply with
all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including, without
limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules
