                                STOCK OPTION PLAN

     1. PURPOSES OF THE PLAN. The purposes of this Amended and Restated 1996
Combined Incentive and Nonqualified Stock Option Plan are:

        -  to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions
           of substantial responsibility,

        -  to provide additional incentive to Employees, Directors and
           Consultants, and

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

        Options granted under the Plan may be Incentive Stock Options or
Nonstatutory Stock Options, as determined by the Administrator at the time of
grant. Stock Purchase Rights may also be granted under the Plan.

without having been exercised in full, or is surrendered pursuant to an
Option Exchange Program, the unpurchased Shares which were subject thereto
shall become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the
Plan has terminated); PROVIDED, however, that Shares that have actually been
issued under the Plan, whether upon exercise of an Option or Right, shall not
be returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future

repurchased by the Company at their original purchase price, such Shares
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;

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

            (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;

            (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;

            (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 allow Optionees to satisfy withholding tax obligations
by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon
exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right that number of Shares having a
Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The Fair
Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date
that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by
an Optionee to have Shares withheld for this purpose shall be made in such
form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or
advisable;

            (xii)  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;

            (xiii) 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-

     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) 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.

        (b) 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.

        (c) 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 1,000,000 Shares.

            (ii)  In connection with his or her initial service, a Service
Provider may be granted Options to purchase up to an additional 1,000,000
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 (i) 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

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

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.

                  (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 that 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;

                                      -7-

<PAGE>

            (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.

     10. EXERCISE OF OPTION.

         (a) PROCEDURE FOR EXERCISE; RIGHTS AS A SHAREHOLDER. 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 tolled 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
shareholder 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

                                      -8-

<PAGE>

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 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

                                     -9-

<PAGE>

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 SHAREHOLDER. Once the Stock Purchase Right is
exercised, the purchaser shall have the rights equivalent to those of a
shareholder, and shall be a shareholder when his or her purchase is entered
upon the records of the duly authorized transfer 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
shareholders 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

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

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 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. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Option or
Stock Purchase Right shall be considered assumed if, following the merger or
sale of assets, the option or right confers the right to purchase or receive,
for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option or Stock Purchase
Right immediately prior to the merger or sale of assets, the consideration
(whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger
or sale of assets by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the
effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of
consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority
of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration
received in the merger or sale of assets is not solely common stock of the
successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent
of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received
upon the exercise of the Option or Stock Purchase Right, for each Share of
Optioned Stock subject to the Option or Stock Purchase Right, to be solely
common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market
value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in
the merger or sale of assets.

     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) SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. The Company shall obtain shareholder
approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to
comply with Applicable Laws.

                                     -11-

<PAGE>

         (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.

         (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. SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. The Plan shall be subject to approval by the
shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan
is adopted. Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the manner and to
the degree required under Applicable Laws.

     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. In addition, to the extent consistent with applicable law, the
Board may authorize one or more senior executive officers to grant Awards to
specified classes of Service Providers, within the limits specifically
prescribed by the Board.

            (ii) 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 or executive officer, subject to the
specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee or officer, the
Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion:

            (i) to determine the Fair Market Value;

            (ii) to select the Service Providers to whom Awards may be
granted hereunder;

            (iii) to determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be
covered by each Award 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 Award granted hereunder. Such terms and
conditions include, but are

                                       -4-

<PAGE>

not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Awards 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 Award or the shares of Common Stock relating
thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole
discretion, shall determine;

            (vi) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards
granted pursuant to the Plan;

            (vii) 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;

            (viii) to modify or amend each Award (subject to Section 16(b) 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;

            (ix) to allow Participants to satisfy withholding tax obligations
by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon
exercise of an Option or the grant of a Stock Award that number of Shares
having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The
Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the
date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections
by a Participant to have Shares withheld for this purpose shall be made in
such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary
or advisable;

            (x) to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company
any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award previously granted by
the Administrator;

            (xi) 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 Participants and any other holders of Awards.

     5. ELIGIBILITY. Awards may be granted to Service Providers selected by
the Administrator who are not, at the time the Award is granted, Officers or
Directors of the Company.

     6. LIMITATIONS.

        (a) Neither the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon a Participant
any right with respect to continuing the Participant's relationship as a
Service Provider with the Company, nor shall they interfere in any way with
the Participant's right or the Company's right to terminate such relationship
at any time, with or without cause.

                                     -5-

<PAGE>

     7. TERM OF PLAN. The Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by
the Board. The Plan shall have no fixed expiration date.

     8. TERM OF OPTION. The term of each Option shall be stated in the Option
Agreement or, if not stated in the Option Agreement, shall be ten (10) years
from the date of grant.

     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.

        (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 that 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. Such consideration may consist entirely of:

            (i)   cash;

            (ii)  check;

            (iii) to the extent permitted by the Plan Administrator in the
Option Agreement, other Shares which (A) in the case of Shares acquired upon
exercise of an option, have been owned by the Participant 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;

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

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

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

     10. EXERCISE OF OPTION.

         (a) PROCEDURE FOR EXERCISE; RIGHTS AS A SHAREHOLDER. 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 tolled during any
unpaid leave of absence. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a
Share.

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

            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
Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the
Participant 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 shareholder 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 for vested and nonforfeitable
Shares 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 a
Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, other than upon the
Participant's death or Disability, the Participant 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 Participant's termination. If, on the date of termination, the
Participant 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 Participant 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 PARTICIPANT. If a Participant ceases to be a
Service Provider as a result of the Participant's Disability, the Participant
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 Participant's termination. If, on the date of
termination, the Participant 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 Participant does 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 PARTICIPANT. If a Participant 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 Option

                                       -7-

<PAGE>

Agreement), by the Participant'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 Participant's termination. If, at the time of death, the
Participant 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
Participant's estate or, if none, by the person(s) entitled to exercise the
Option under the Participant'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 Participant at the time that such offer is made.

     11. Stock Awards.

         (a) The Administrator is authorized to make Awards of Common Stock
or Awards denominated in units of Common Stock on such terms and conditions
and subject to such restrictions, if any (which may be based on continuous
service with the Company or the achievement of performance goals), as the
Administrator shall determine, in its sole discretion, which terms,
conditions and restrictions shall be set forth in the instrument evidencing
the Award. The terms, conditions and restrictions that the Administrator
shall have the power to determine shall include, without limitation, the
manner in which Shares subject to Stock Awards are held during the periods
they are subject to restrictions and the circumstances under which forfeiture
of the Stock Award shall occur by reason of termination of the Participant's
employment or service relationship.

        (b) Upon the satisfaction of any terms, conditions and restrictions
prescribed in respect to a Stock Award, or upon the Participant's release
from any terms, conditions and restrictions of a Stock Award, as determined
by the Administrator, the Company shall release, as soon as practicable, to
the Participant or, in the case of the Participant's death, to the personal
representative of the Participant's estate or as the appropriate court
directs, the appropriate number of Shares.

         (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the
Administrator may, in its sole discretion, waive the forfeiture period and
any other terms, conditions or restrictions on any Stock Award under such
circumstances and subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator
shall deem appropriate.

     12. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF AWARDS. Unless determined otherwise by the
Administrator, an Award 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
Participant, only by the Participant. If the Administrator

                                      -8-

<PAGE>

makes an Award transferable, such Award 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
shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
each outstanding Award, and the number of shares of Common Stock which have
been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Shares have
yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or
expiration of an Award, as well as the price per share of Common Stock
covered by each such outstanding Award, 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 Award.

         (b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify
each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such
proposed transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for a
Participant 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 or forfeiture provision applicable to any Award 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 will terminate immediately prior to the
consummation of such proposed action. To the extent a repurchase option or
forfeiture provision applicable to a Stock Award has not been waived by the
Administrator, the Stock Award shall be forfeited automatically immediately
prior to the consummation of the proposed action.

         (c) MERGER OR ASSET SALE. Unless otherwise described in the
instrument evidencing the Award, in the event of a merger of the Company with
or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company, each outstanding Option shall be assumed or an
equivalent option or right 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, the
Participant shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option as
to all of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which it would not
otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Option becomes fully vested and
exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or
sale of assets, the Administrator shall

                                       -9-

<PAGE>

notify the Participant in writing or electronically that the Option shall be
fully vested and exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date
of such notice, and the Option shall terminate upon the expiration of such
period. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Option shall be considered
assumed if, following the merger or sale of assets, the option or right
confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Optioned Stock
subject to the Option immediately prior to the merger or sale of assets, the
consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received
in the merger or sale of assets by holders of Common Stock for each Share
held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a
choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a
majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such
consideration received in the merger or sale of assets is not solely common
stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with
the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be
received upon the exercise of the Option, for each Share of Optioned Stock
subject to the Option, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation
or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration
received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or sale of assets.

             Unless otherwise described in the instrument evidencing the
Award, in the event of a merger of the Company with or into another
corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, the vesting of Shares subject to Stock Awards shall accelerate, and
the repurchase and forfeiture provisions to which such Shares are subject
shall lapse, if and to the same extent that the vesting of outstanding
Options accelerates in connection with such merger or sale. If Options are to
be assumed, continued or substituted by a successor corporation or a Parent
or Subsidiary thereof without acceleration upon the occurrence of a merger or
sale, the forfeiture provisions to which such Stock Awards are subject shall
continue with respect to shares of the successor corporation or a Parent or
Subsidiary thereof that may be issued in exchange for such shares.

     14. ACQUIRED COMPANY AWARDS. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the
contrary, the Administrator may grant Awards under the Plan in substitution
for awards issued under other plans, or assume under the Plan awards issued
under other plans, if the other plans are or were plans of other acquired
entities ("Acquired Entities") (or the parent of the Acquired Entity) and the
new Award is substituted, or the old award is assumed, by reason of a merger,
consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, reorganization or
liquidation (the "Acquisition Transaction"). In the event that a written
agreement pursuant to which the Acquisition Transaction is completed is
approved by the Board and said agreement sets forth the terms and conditions
of the substitution for or assumption of outstanding awards of the Acquired
Entity, said terms and conditions shall be deemed to be the action of the
Administrator, and the persons holding such awards shall be deemed to be
Participants.

     15. DATE OF GRANT. The date of grant of an Award shall be, for all
purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination
granting such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the
Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be provided to each
Participant within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

     16. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.

                                     -10-

<PAGE>

         (a) AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The Board may at any time amend,
alter, suspend or terminate the Plan.

         (b) EFFECT OF AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION. No amendment, alteration,
suspension or termination of the Plan shall impair the rights of any
Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the
Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the
Participant 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 Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such
termination.

     17. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES.

         (a) LEGAL COMPLIANCE. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to an
Award unless 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.

         (b) INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS. As a condition to the exercise of an
Option, the Company may require the person exercising such Option 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.

     18. 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.

     19. 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.

         ADOPTED BY THE BOARD ON DECEMBER 8, 1999. AMENDED BY THE BOARD ON
         JANUARY 13, 2000 TO ADD STOCK AWARDS AND SECTION 14. PLAN FURTHER
         AMENDED BY THE BOARD ON FEBRUARY 10, 2000 TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF
         SHARES AVAILABLE FOR ISSUANCE (ALTHOUGH THE AGGREGATE NUMBER OF SHARES
         AVAILABLE REMAINED AT 4,000,000 SHARES). PLAN FURTHER AMENDED BY THE
         BOARD ON MARCH 21, 2000 AND IN JUNE 2000 TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF
         SHARES AVAILABLE FOR ISSUANCE AND TO INCREASE THE AGGREGATE NUMBER OF
         SHARES AVAILABLE UNDER THE PLAN.
