2.1   Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement (including but
      not limited to the conditions set forth in Clause 16), the Bank agrees
      to make available to the

                                        8

<PAGE>

      Borrowers a revolving loan facility whereby the Bank agrees to make
      Advances in U.S. Dollars up to a maximum aggregate principal amount not
      exceeding US$50,000,000 at any one time.

2.2   Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement (including but
      not limited to the conditions set forth in Clause 16), the Bank agrees
      to make available to the Borrowers a guarantee facility whereby the
      Bank agrees to issue Guarantees at the request of a Borrower
      denominated in U.S. Dollars or in any Optional Currency up to a maximum
      aggregate principal U.S. Dollar Amount not exceeding US$12,000,000 at
      any one time.

2.3   Clause 2.1 above shall not require the Bank to make available to the
      Borrowers any Advances where, because the UBC Market Valuation as then
      determined by the Bank at such time is less than US$100,000,000, a
      prepayment obligation would arise in respect of such Advance, on the
      notice of the Bank, in accordance with Clause 5.2.

3     LOAN FACILITY

3.1   The proceeds of the Advances shall be utilised by the Borrowers for
      their general corporate purposes including, without limitation, the
      acquisition and development of pay-TV, technology and internet related
      businesses.

3.2   The Bank shall not be obliged to concern itself with such utilisation.

3.3   When a Borrower wishes to borrow an Advance hereunder, it shall give to
      the Bank notice in writing (which shall be irrevocable) to be received
      by the Bank no later than 10:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days
      prior to the proposed date for borrowing specifying;

      3.3.1    the date therof (which must be a Business Day no later than
               the date one month before the then current Repayment Date);

      3.3.2    the amount in U.S. Dollars thereof (which must be an integral

               and

      3.3.3    (subject to Clause 6.1) the duration of the first Interest
               Period relating to such Advance.

3.4   The Bank will make each Advance available to an account of the relevant
      Borrower at the Bank.

3.5   If any Advance is not advanced after notice of borrowing therefor has
      been served pursuant to Clause 3.3 as a result of a failure to fulfil
      any of the conditions precedent set out in Clause 16 or as a result of
      a Borrower failing to comply with this Clause 3, the Borrowers will pay
      to the Bank such amount as the Bank may certify (which certificate
      shall constitute conclusive evidence of the amount due) as necessary to
      compensate the Bank for any losses on account of funds borrowed or
      contracted for in order to fund such Advance.

4     REPAYMENT

4.1   Subject to the provisions of Clause 20 (Demand Events), the Borrowers
      shall repay the full amount of each Advance on the last day of the
      Interest Period relating to the Advance. Subject to Clause 4.3, amounts
      so repaid in accordance with this Clause 4.1 may, subject to the terms
      of this agreement, be reborrowed.

4.2   Without prejudice to the Borrowers' obligation to repay the full amount
      of each Advance on the due date, where on the same day as the Borrowers
      are due to repay an Advance a Borrower also requests and is entitled in
      accordance with this agreement to borrow an Advance, the amounts to be
      so repaid and so borrowed shall be netted against each other to the
      intent that there shall be an actual transfer of funds from the Bank to
      such Borrower or, as the case may be, from the Borrowers to the Bank of
      the net amount.

4.3   Subject to the provisions of Clauses 5.2, 5.3 and Clause 20 (Demand
      Events), all outstanding Advances shall be repaid in full on the then
      current Repayment Date.

4.4   Any Borrower may on any date falling not more than 90 days prior to the
      then current Repayment Date nor less than 60 days prior to the then
      current Repayment Date request that such date be extended from the then
      current Repayment Date to the anniversary thereof. If the Bank agrees
      to such extension, it shall notify the Borrowers in writing of its
      agreement thereto and the Repayment Date shall thereupon be so extended
      provided always that no such request by a Borrower pursuant to this
      Clause shall operate to extend the relevant Repayment Date beyond the
      Final Repayment Date.

5     PREPAYMENT AND CANCELLATION

5.1   A Borrower may prepay an Advance (together with accrued interest
      thereon) on any Business Day in whole but not in part on giving not
      less than fourteen days' prior written notice to the Bank. Such notice
      shall be irrevocable and shall constitute an obligation to prepay
      accordingly.  Any amounts prepaid under this Clause 5.1 may, subject to
      the terms of this agreement, be reborrowed. The relevant Borrower will
      pay to the Bank such amounts as may be due to it under Clause 13.5 if
      any such prepayment is made on a day other than the last day of an
      Interest Period relative to such Advance.

5.2   If at any time the UBC Market Valuation as then determined by the Bank
      is less than US$100,000,000 and the ratio of the sum as then determined
      by the Bank of (i) the aggregate amount of the Advances outstanding
      plus (ii) its contingent liabilities under Outstanding Guarantees plus
      (iii) amounts due to the Bank pursuant to Clause 10.1 and unpaid
      (together, the "OUTSTANDING AMOUNTS") to the UBC Market Valuation is
      more than 1:2, the Borrowers shall, if there are any Advances
      outstanding at such time, within 10 Business Days of notice thereof
      from the Bank repay the lesser of such amount of the Advances (together
      with accrued interest thereon) as shall ensure that immediately after
      such repayment:

      (i)     the ratio of the Outstanding Amounts to the UBC Market Valuation
              is not more than 1:2; or

                                      10
<PAGE>

      (ii)    the Outstanding Amounts plus US$38,000,000 does not then exceed
              the UBC Market Valuation.

      The Borrowers will pay to the Bank such amounts as may be due to it
      under Clause 13.5 if any such payment is made on a day other than the
      last day of an Interest Period. Amounts repaid under this Clause 5.2
      may not be reborrowed and the Loan Facility shall be reduced to the
      amount of the Advances outstanding following any such repayment under
      this Clause 5.2, until such time as the UBC Market Valuation as then
      determined by the Bank has increased in value by more than
      US$2,000,000 whereupon such increase may be reborrowed and the Loan
      Facility shall be reinstated to the extent necessary to support such
      reborrowing subject to the other terms and conditions of this
      agreement.

5.3   MIH may on giving not less than fourteen days' prior written notice
      to the Bank cancel without cost or penalty the unutilised portion of
      the Loan Facility in whole or in part (but, if in part, in a minimum
      amount of US$5,000,000 and an integral multiple of US$1,000,000). On
      the expiry of such notice the Loan Facility shall be cancelled or, as
      applicable, appropriately reduced. No notice of cancellation may be
      withdrawn or revoked. No Borrower shall be entitled to cancel any part
      of the Loan Facility otherwise than in accordance with the express
      provisions of this agreement and no amount of the Loan Facility
      cancelled may thereafter be utilised.

6     INTEREST PERIODS

6.1   Each Interest Period shall, subject as follows, be of a duration of
      one, two or three months, as selected by the relevant Borrower in any
      notice in writing issued pursuant to Clause 3.3 provided that:

      6.1.1    if any Interest Period would end on a day which is not a
               Business Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the
               next succeeding Business Day unless such next Business Day
               falls in the next calendar month in which event such Interest
               Period shall end on the immediately preceding Business Day;

      6.1.2    the first Interest Period relative to each Advance (other than
               the first Advance) shall end on the same day as the then
               current Interest Period relative to the first Advance to the
               intent that on the expiration of the first Interest Period
               relative to each Advance (other than the first Advance) all
               Advances shall thereafter be treated as one Advance and, to
               the extent practicable, all Interest Periods shall be
               co-terminous;

      6.1.3    if the Borrower fails to select an Interest Period for an
               Advance in accordance with Clause 3.3 that Interest Period
               shall (subject to the other provisions of this Clause) be one
               month; and

      6.1.4    the then current Repayment Date shall be the last day of an
               Interest Period.

                                      11

<PAGE>

7     INTEREST

7.1   The Borrowers shall pay to the Bank interest on each Advance during
      each Interest Period relative thereto at the rate per annum determined
      by the Bank to be the aggregate of the Margin and the offered rate
      quoted to the Bank by leading banks in the London Interbank Market at
      or about 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the first day of such Interest
      Period for deposits denominated in the currency of, and of comparable
      amount to, such Advance for the same period as that of such Interest
      Period.

7.2   Save as provided otherwise herein, interest in respect of each Advance
      shall be paid in arrears on the last day of each Interest Period
      relative thereto.

7.3   Interest determined as aforesaid shall accrue from day to day and be
      calculated on the actual number of days elapsed and the basis of a 360
      day year and shall be payable both before and after judgment.

7.4   If in relation to an Advance and a particular Interest Period the Bank
      shall have determined that by reason of circumstances affecting the
      London Interbank Market generally adequate and fair means do not exist
      for ascertaining the rate of interest applicable to that Advance during
      such Interest Period pursuant to Clause 7.1, the Bank shall as soon as
      practicable and in any event prior to the commencement of the relevant
      such Interest Period give notice of such determination to the relevant
      Borrowers. In the event that the Advance is made available by the Bank
      or is outstanding, the Bank shall as soon as practicable thereafter
      notify the relevant Borrowers of a substitute interest rate to be
      applicable to the Advance during such Interest Period, reflecting the
      cost to the Bank of funding the Advance plus the Margin from such
      sources as it may select in good faith. If such substitute rate is not
      acceptable to the relevant Borrower, it may prepay the Advance in full
      within ten Business Days after such notification on giving to the Bank
      not less than two Business Days' notice thereof or on such other date as
      is mutually agreed. Such prepayment shall be made together with accrued
      interest on the amount so prepaid at the substitute rate notified as
      aforesaid, together with all other amounts due to the Bank.

8     CERTIFICATES AND DETERMINATION

      Any certification or determination by the Bank of a rate or amount under
      this agreement shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive
      evidence of the matters to which it relates.

9     GUARANTEE FACILITY

9.1   Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement (including but
      not limited to the conditions set forth in Clause 16), the Bank agrees
      to issue Guarantees at the request of a Borrower denominated in U.S.
      Dollars or in any Optional Currency up to a maximum aggregate principal
      U.S. Dollar Amount not exceeding US$12,000,000 at any one time for its
      general corporate purposes subject to Clause 9.5 provided that prior to
      the date on which the conditions set forth in Clause 16 have been
      satisfied or at any time whilst those Existing Guarantees remain
      Outstanding Guarantees the Bank shall not be obliged to issue Guarantees
      hereunder in excess of that amount which is equal to US$12,000,000 less
      the principal amount of the Existing Guarantees and for this purpose the
      principal

                                      12

<PAGE>

       amount of an Existing Guarantee shall be calculated by converting the
       face amount of such Existing Guarantee into U.S. Dollars on the basis
       of the Bank's spot rate of exchange for the purchase of U.S. Dollars
       with the currency in which it is denominated on each proposed issue
       date of any Guarantee requested to be issued by a Borrower hereunder.

9.2    When a Borrower wishes the Bank to issue a Guarantee (other than the
       Existing Guarantees), it shall give to the Bank notice in writing (which
       shall be irrevocable) to be received by the Bank not less than five
       Business Days prior to the proposed issue date of the Guarantee:

       9.2.1   requesting the issue thereof;

       9.2.2   specifying the proposed issued date (which must be a Business
               Day no later than the date three months before the then current
               Repayment Date); and

       9.2.3   accompanied by a copy of such Guarantee initialled by the
               Borrower for the purpose of identification and such other
               information or documentation relating to such Guarantee as the
               Bank may request.

9.3    The Bank shall not be under any obligation to issue any Guarantee
       pursuant to this agreement unless (i) it is in a form reasonably
       acceptable to the Bank and (ii) it has been initialled for the
       purposes of identification by the Borrowers and the Bank.

9.4    A Borrower may on giving not less than fourteen days' prior written
       notice to the Bank cancel without penalty on the expiry of such notice
       the unutilised portion of the Guarantee Facility in whole or in part
       (but, if in part, in an integral multiple of Us$1,000,000). The
       Guarantee Facility shall then at the expiry of such notice be cancelled
       or, as applicable, appropriately reduced. No notice of cancellation may
       be withdrawn or revoked. MIH shall not be entitled to cancel any part
       of the Guarantee Facility otherwise than in accordance with the express
       provisions of this agreement and no amount cancelled may thereafter be
       utilised.

9.5    With effect from the date of the conditions set forth in Clause 16 have
       been satisfied, each of the Existing Guarantees shall be deemed to be a
       Guarantee issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and all
       the terms of this Agreement relating to Guarantees and otherwise
       applicable shall apply to the Existing Guarantees from such time.

10     INDEMNITY

10.1   Each Borrower hereby indemnifies and agrees to keep the Bank
       indemnified from and against all payments, claims, demands,
       liabilities, losses, costs and expenses made, suffered or incurred by
       the Bank in relation to or arising out of the issue by it of each
       Guarantee and will pay to the Bank on its demand for payment each
       such payment, claim, demand, liability, loss, cost and expense made,
       suffered or incurred by the Bank in the currency in which the same was
       made, suffered or incurred.

10.2   Each Borrower irrevocably authorises the Bank to make any payment or
       comply with any demand which appears or purports to be claimed or made
       under any

                                      13

<PAGE>

       Guarantee, without any reference to or further authority from any
       Borrower, without enquiry into the justification therefor or the
       validity, genuiness or accuracy of any statement or certificate by
       the Bank with respect to or under such Guarantee and despite any
       contestation on the part of any Borrower, and each Borrower agrees
       that any such claim or demand shall be binding on it and shall, as
       between the Bank and such Borrower, be accepted by such Borrower as
       conclusive evidence that the Bank was liable to pay or comply with the
       same.

10.3   Each Borrower further agrees with the Bank that its obligations under
       this Clause shall not in any way be discharged or impaired by:-

       10.3.1  any waiver, time or other indulgence that may be granted to or
               by the Bank with respect to any Guarantee;

       10.3.2  any amendment, extension or variation of any Guarantee or any
               other agreement;

       10.3.3  any legal limitation, disability, incapacity, insolvency or
               other circumstances relating to any person, whether or not
               known to the Bank or any other person; or

       10.3.4  any invalidity or irregularity in or unenforceability of the
               obligations of any person .

10.4   Each Borrower further agrees with the Bank that its obligations under
       this Clause shall exist independently of and shall not be affected by:-

       10.4.1  any right, claim, assurance or security that the Bank or any
               other person may from time to time have, or have failed to
               obtain, enforce or assert; or

       10.4.2  anything done or omitted to be done which but for this
               provision might constitute a legal or equitable discharge of
               or defence for it.

10.5   Each Borrower further agrees that the Bank may debit any account of it
       with the Bank with any sum demanded by the Bank under this Clause 10.

11     GUARANTEE COMMISSION

       On the date of issue of each Guarantee and on each date which falls
       three months after the date on which such Guarantee is issued the
       Borrowers will pay to the Bank a commission calculated at the rate of
       one-quarter of one per cent. of the maximum potential liability of the
       Bank under such Guarantee as at such date of issue or such
       three-monthly date (as the case may be).

12     CASH COLLATERAL

       If a Borrower requests and the Bank agrees to issue any Guarantee with
       an expiry date falling after the then current Repayment Date, the Bank
       may by notice in writing given to the Borrower not less than 10
       Business Days before the then current Repayment Date declare that the
       Borrower shall provide the Bank with one hundred per cent. cash cover in
       respect of the maximum potential liability of the

                                      14

<PAGE>

       Bank under such Guarantee and the Borrower shall provide such cash
       cover on or before the then current Repayment Date.

13     PAYMENTS AND DEFAULT INTEREST

13.1   All payments to be made by any Borrower under this agreement shall be
       made on the due date in immediately available funds to the Bank by
       payment in U.S. Dollars (or in the case of a Guarantee denominated in
       an Optional Currency or costs, expenses and taxes and the like in the
       relevant Optional Currency or in the currency in which they are
       incurred (as the case may be)) to the Bank's U.S. Dollar Account Number
       3582 023094 001 at Standard Chartered Bank, 160 Water Street, New York,
       New York SWIFT-ID SCBLUS33 or such other account as the Bank may
       specify.

13.2   All payments to be made by any Borrower under or in connection with
       this agreement shall be made without any set-off or counterclaim and
       free of and without deduction for any taxes or other deductions of
       any nature whatsoever now or hereafter imposed or made, all of which
       shall be for the account of such Borrower. Should any such payment be
       subject to any such tax or deduction, the Borrowers shall indemnify
       the Bank against the same and shall pay to the Bank as provided above
       such additional amounts as may be necessary to enable the Bank to
       receive a net amount equal to the full amount provided for under this
       agreement, had there been no such tax or deduction. The relevant
       Borrower shall deliver to the Bank within thirty days of each such
       payment by the relevant Borrower of such tax evidence satisfactory to
       the Bank (including all relevant tax receipts) that such tax has been
       duly remitted to the appropriate authority.

13.3   If the Bank determines, in its absolute discretion, that it has
       received, realised, utilised and retained a tax benefit by reason of
       any deduction or withholding in respect of which a Borrower has made
       an indemnity payment under Clause 13.2, the Bank shall, as and when
       it has received all amounts which are then due and payable by the
       Obligors under any Security Document, pay to that Borrower (to the
       extent that the Bank can do so without prejudicing the amount of the
       benefit or repayment and right of the Bank to obtain any other benefit,
       relief or allowance which may be available to it) such amount, if any,
       as the Bank, in its absolute discretion shall determine, will leave
       the Bank in no worse position that it would have been in if the
       deduction or withholding had not been required, provided that:

       13.1.1  the Bank shall have an absolute discretion as to the time at
               which and the order and manner in which it realises or utilises
               any tax benefit and shall not be obliged to arrange its
               business or its tax affairs in any particular way in order to
               be eligible for any credit or refund or similar benefit, and

       13.3.2  the Bank shall not be obliged to disclose any information
               regarding its business, tax affairs or tax computation.

13.4   Whenever any payment under this agreement shall become due on a day

13.5  If any Borrower makes any payment of any principal amount of any advance
      otherwise than on the last day of an Interest Period, such Borrower
      will on demand by the Bank pay to the Bank such additional amounts as
      the Bank may certify as necessary to compensate it for any loss or
      expense sustained or incurred in liquidating or re-deploying funds
      acquired or arranged to effect or maintain such Advance.

13.6  If any Borrower fails to pay any amount payable by it under this
      agreement on the due date therefor, such Borrower shall on demand by the

      date up to the date of actual payment (as well after as before judgment
      or winding up) at the Default Rate.

14    CHANGES IN CIRCUMSTANCES

14.1  If:

      14.1.1   any change in any law, regulation or official directive
               (whether or not having the force of law);

      14.1.2   any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any
               authority charged with the administration thereof;

      14.1.3   compliance by any office of the Bank in good faith with any
               request or directive of any applicable monetary or fiscal agency
               or authority (whether or not having the force of law);

      results in:

      14.1.4   the Bank incurring a cost (including the cost of complying
               with any reserve, special deposit, liquidity, cash or other
               requirement or any capital adequacy rules) as a result of
               having entered into this agreement; or

      14.1.5   a reduction in the amount of principal or interest receivable
               by the Bank under this agreement; or

      14.1.6   the Bank making any payment or foregoing any interest or other
               return on or calculated by reference to any sum received or
               receivable by it under this agreement;

      then, upon demand being made to any Borrower by the Bank, the Borrowers
      shall pay to the Bank such amount as shall compensate the Bank for such
      cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other return. The
      certificate of the Bank setting out the amount shall, in the absence of
      manifest error, be conclusive evidence thereof.

14.2  If the Bank is prohibited by law from making, issuing, maintaining or
      funding (or it is contrary to any directive of any applicable authority
      for the Bank to make, issue, maintain or fund) any Advance or any
      Guarantee or any part thereof, then if such Advance has not already
      been made or such Guarantee has not been issued, the Bank shall not be
      obliged to make available such Advance or to issue such Guarantee and,
      if such Advance has already been made or such Guarantee

                                      16
<PAGE>

      has already been issued, the Borrowers will forthwith on demand by the
      Bank repay such advance together with all accrued interest and all other
      amounts due to the Bank under this agreement and provide the Bank with
      one hundred per cent. cash cover in respect of the maximum potential
      liability of the Bank under such Guarantee and the Facilities shall be
      reduced to zero.

14.3  If circumstances arise which would or would upon the giving of notice
      result in any Borrower being liable to make any indemnity payment under
      Clause 13.2 or to pay any compensation under Clause 14.1 or to make any
      repayment under clause 14.2 then without in any way limiting, reducing,
      or otherwise qualifying such Borrower's obligations under any of such
      Clauses, the Bank shall in consultation with the Borrowers, take such
      steps as the Bank in its opinion considers are reasonably open to it to
      mitigate the effects of such circumstances including the transfer of
      its rights and obligations hereunder to another financial institution
      willing to participate in the Facilities provided that the Bank shall be
      under no obligation to take any such steps if, in the bona fide opinion
      of the Bank, such steps would or might have an adverse effect upon its
      business, operations or financial condition or cause it to incur any
      material costs or expenses.

permit the earlier exercise of any or all of the Stock Options.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or any Option
Agreement hereunder, no Option granted hereunder shall be exercised after ten
years from its Date of Grant.

     (c)  PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE.  Upon the exercise of a Stock Option,
the purchase price will be payable in full in cash or its equivalent
acceptable to the Company. In the discretion of the Administrator, the
purchase price may be paid by the assignment and delivery to the Company of
shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and such shares equal in
value to the exercise price. Any shares so assigned and delivered to the
Company in payment or partial payment of the purchase price will be valued at
their Fair Market Value on the exercise date.

     (d)  NO FRACTIONAL SHARES.  No fractional shares will be issued pursuant
to the exercise of a Stock Option nor will any cash payment be made in lieu
of fractional shares.

     (e)  TERMINATION OF DIRECTORSHIP.  If a Participant's services as a
member of the Board terminate by reason of death, Disability or Normal Board
Retirement, an Option granted hereunder held by such Participant shall be
automatically accelerated with respect to its exercisability and shall become
immediately exercisable in full for the remaining number of shares of Common
Stock subject to such Option for three (3) years after the date of such
termination or until the expiration of the stated term of such Option,
whichever period is shorter, and thereafter such Option shall terminate;
provided, however, that if a Participant dies or suffers a Disability during
such three year period after Normal Board Retirement such Option shall remain
exercisable in full for a period of three years after the date of such death
or Disability or until the expiration of the stated term of such Option,
whichever period is shorter, and thereafter such Option shall terminate. If a
Participant's services as a member of the Board terminate for any other
reason, any portion of an Option granted hereunder held by such Participant
which is not then exercisable shall terminate and any portion of such Option
which is then exercisable may be exercised for three months after the date of
such termination or until the expiration of the stated term of such Option,
whichever period is shorter, and thereafter such Option shall terminate;
provided, however, that if a Participant dies or suffers a Disability during
such three month period, such Option may be exercised for a period of one
year after the date of such Participant's death or Disability or until the
expiration of the stated term of such Option, whichever period is shorter, in
accordance with its terms, but only to the extent exercisable on the date of
the Participant's death or Disability.

8.   ADJUSTMENT PROVISIONS.

     (a)  Subject to Clause 8(b), if the outstanding shares of Common Stock
of the Company are increased, decreased or exchanged for a different number
or kind of shares or other securities, or if additional shares or new or
different shares or other securities are distributed with respect to such
shares of Common Stock or other securities, through merger, consolidation,
sale of all or substantially all the property of the Company, reorganization,
recapitalisation, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse
stock split or other distribution with respect to such shares of Common Stock
or other securities, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be
made in

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

          (i)   the maximum number and kind of shares or other securities
provided in Clause 3(a);

          (ii)  the number and kind of shares or other securities subject to
the then-outstanding Stock Options;

          (iii) the price for each share or other unit or any other
securities subject to then-outstanding Stock Options without change in the
aggregate purchase price or values as to which such Stock Options remain
exercisable; and

          (iv)  the number, kind and price of shares or other securities to
be granted pursuant to Clause 6 hereof.

     (b)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 8(a), upon dissolution or
liquidation of the Company or upon a reorganization, merger or consolidation
of the Company with one or more corporations as a result of which the Company
is not the surviving corporation or as a result of which the outstanding
Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for cash or securities of another
issuer or both, or upon the sale of all or substantially all the assets of
the Company, all restrictions applicable to the exercise of outstanding Stock
Options shall continue in full force and effect and provision shall be made
in connection with such transaction for the continuation of the Plan and the
assumption of the outstanding stock Options by or the substitution for such
Options of new options covering the stock of the successor corporation, or a
parent or subsidiary thereof or of the Company, with appropriate and
proportionate adjustment in-

          (i)   the number and kind of shares or other securities or cash or
other property subject to such Options; and

          (ii)  the price for each share or other unit of any other
securities or cash or other property subject to such Options without change
in the aggregate purchase price or value as to which such Options remain
exercisable;

     provided, however, that if no public market exists for the Common Stock
or other securities or property which would be subject to such Options after
implementation of such transaction, such Options shall be converted into the
right to receive, upon exercise thereof, an amount of cash equal to the
amount determined by the Administrator to be the fair market value at the
effective date of such transaction of the stock, other securities, cash and
other property that a share of Common Stock is entitled to receive, or into
which it is converted, pursuant to such transaction.

     (c)  Adjustments under Clauses 8(a) and 8(b) will be made by the
Administrator, whose determination as to what adjustments will be made and
the extent thereof will be final, binding, and conclusive in the absence of
manifest error or arbitrary action. No fractional interest will be issued
under the Plan on account of any such adjustments.

9.   GENERAL PROVISIONS.

     (a)  The grant of any Stock Option under the Plan may also be subject to
such other provisions (whether or not applicable to the Stock Option awarded
to any other Participant) as the Administrator determines appropriate
including, without limitation, provisions to assist a Participant in
financing the purchase of Common Stock through the exercise of Stock Options,
provisions for the forfeiture of or restrictions on resale or other
disposition of shares acquired under any form of benefit, provisions giving
the Company the right to repurchase shares acquired under any form of benefit
in the event the Participant elects to dispose of such share, provisions to
comply with federal and state securities laws and federal and state income
tax withholding requirements and to such

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency which may be necessary or
advisable in connection therewith.

     In connection with the administration of the Plan or the grant of any
Stock Option, the Administrator may impose such further limitations or
conditions as in its opinion may be required or advisable to satisfy, or
secure the benefits of, applicable regulatory requirements (including, if
applicable, those rules promulgated under Clause 16 of the Exchange Act or
those rules that facilitate exemption from or compliance with the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act), the requirements of any stock
exchange or NASDAQ upon which such shares or shares of the same class are
then listed, and any blue sky or other securities laws applicable to such
shares.

     (b)  No person shall be entitled to the privileges of stock ownership in
respect of shares of stock which are subject to Options hereunder until such
person shall have become the holder of record of such shares.

     (c)  Options shall not be transferable by the Participants other than by
will or the laws of inheritance, and during the lifetime of any Participant
shall be exercisable only by such Participant, except that to the extent
permitted by applicable law, and except (if applicable) Rule 16b-3
promulgated under the Exchange Act, the Administrator may permit a
Participant to designate in writing during his lifetime a beneficiary to
receive and exercise Stock Options in the event of such Participant's death.
Following the death of a Participant, Stock Options held by such Participant
shall be exercisable, in accordance with their terms, by such designated
beneficiary or, if no such beneficiary has been designated, by the
Participant's estate or by the person or persons who acquire the right to
exercise it by bequest or inheritance. Any attempt to transfer, assign,
pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, or to subject to execution,
attachment or similar process, any Stock Option granted hereunder, contrary
to the provisions hereof, shall be void and ineffective, shall give no rights
to the purported transferee, and shall at the sole discretion of the
Administrator result in forfeiture of such Stock Option with respect to the
shares involved in such attempt.

     (d)  The Plan and all Stock Options granted under the Plan and the
documents evidencing Stock Options shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the Island of Jersey.

10.  AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION.

     (a)  The Board will have the power, in its discretion, to amend, extend,
suspend or terminate the Plan at any time.

     (b)  No amendment, extension, suspension, or termination of the Plan
will, without the consent of the affected Participant, alter, terminate,
impair or adversely affect any right or obligation under any Stock Option
previously granted under the Plan.

11.  EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN AND DURATION OF PLAN.

     This Plan will become effective upon adoption by the Board subject, if
required by the Memorandum of Association or the Articles of Association of
the Company or by any applicable law, to approval by the holders of a
majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock present in person or by
proxy and entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders of the Company held
any

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

time after such Board adoption. Any Options granted hereunder prior to
approval of the Plan by the stockholders, if required as aforesaid, shall be
granted subject to such approval and may not be exercised or realized, nor
may Common Stock be irrevocably transferred to any Participant, until and
unless such approval has occurred and the provisions of Clause 9(a) have been
satisfied. Unless previously terminated or extended, the Plan will terminate
ten years after adoption by the Board, but such termination or extension
shall not affect any Stock Option previously made or granted.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, to record the adoption of the Plan by the Board on
4th October 1999, the Company has caused its authorised officer to affix the
corporate name hereto.
