EXHIBIT 10.16

WORKOUT AGREEMENT FOR INTERNATIONAL MICROCOMPUTER SOFTWARE,INC.

This Workout Agreement ("Agreement") is made between International Microcomputer
Software, Inc., a California corporation, ("Debtor") and each of the creditors
of the Debtor which executes a Consent in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A
(individually, a Creditor and, collectively, the "Creditors").

BACKGROUND

As of February 1, 2000, ("Workout Date"), the Debtor was indebted to the holders
of unsecured claims totaling approximately $12.3 million, not including
approximately $4.3 million of deferred revenue.

On February 4, 2000, the Debtor executed a security agreement ("Security
Agreement") in which the Debtor granted a security interest ("Security
Interest") in substantially all of its assets to CMA Business Credit Services
("CMA") as trustee for its creditors.

The Debtor convened a meeting on February 18, 2000, to which its unsecured
creditors were invited. At that meeting, the management of Debtor discussed the
Debtor's financial condition and its future prospects. At the conclusion of that
meeting, the creditors formed a committee of creditors ("Committee") which is
currently composed of the following creditors:

        Americ Disc, Inc.
        Microweb
        Stan Walker & Associates, Inc.
        Interim Credit Services

D. Thereafter, the Debtor met with its secured creditors and the Committee and
developed a plan for satisfaction of its financial obligations. This Agreement
embodies such plan. The Committee supports this Agreement and recommends that
all creditors consent to the provisions for payment of claims contained herein.

ARTICLE I

Description and Determination of Claims

1.1     CLAIMS TREATED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. Claims subject to this Agreement
        ("Unsecured Claims") shall include all unsecured claims against the
        Debtor which existed on the Workout Date and all claims that existed on
        such date which are unsecured but for (a) the value of their beneficial
        interest under the Security Agreement or (b) any value of their interest
        under a judgment lien, attachment lien, or similar charge in connection
        with their claim which is subordinate to the Security Interest.
        Unsecured Claims shall include (a) all unsecured claims arising under
        leases or executory contracts entered into prior to the Workout Date
        except to the extent of the reasonable value of the use of goods,
        services or space actually used or occupied by the Debtor after the
        Workout Date and (b) interest at the annual rate of six percent (6%)
        accruing on or before September 30, 2000. Unsecured Claims shall not
        include those claims described in Exhibit B hereto ("Schedule of
        Excluded Claims") or an amendment to such Schedule B which is approved
        by the Debtor and the Committee on or before the Effective Date.

1.2     DESIGNATION OF CLAIM AMOUNT BY CREDITOR. Upon execution of a Consent in
        the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, each Creditor shall state thereon
        the amount of its Unsecured Claim. Such Unsecured Claim

                                      157
<PAGE>
        shall not include late charges or similar amounts accrued after the
        Workout Date nor interest accruing after September 30, 2000, all of
        which accruals shall be deemed waived by the execution of the Consent.

1.3     DELIVERY OF CONSENT. The Creditor shall deliver such Consent to CMA at
        the address or facsimile number shown thereon. CMA shall note on each
        Consent the date it is received and shall immediately transmit a copy of
        such Consent to the Debtor.

1.4     NOTICE OF DISPUTE. Not later than twenty-one days after the Effective
        Date (see Section 4.2 below), if the Debtor disputes any portion of the
        Unsecured Claim asserted by a Creditor in its Consent, the Debtor shall
        transmit written notice to the Creditor stating the amount in dispute.

1.5     DETERMINATION OF ALLOWED CLAIM. If the Debtor gives timely notice of a
        disputed claim, the portion of such claim which the Debtor disputes
        shall be deemed a "Disputed Claim." Any Unsecured Claim, or portion
        thereof, which the Debtor does not timely dispute shall be deemed an
        Allowed Claim.

1.6     TREATMENT OF DISPUTED CLAIMS.

        (a)     RESOLUTION THROUGH ARBITRATION. The allowability of each
                Disputed Claim shall be determined by either (i) agreement
                between the Debtor and the Creditor or (ii) binding arbitration
                pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
                Arbitration Association upon demand submitted to the Association
                by either party. The award of the arbitrator in such proceeding
                shall be a declaration only of the amount of the Creditor's
                Allowed Claim under this Agreement and shall specify that it may
                be satisfied only in accordance with this Agreement. The
                allocation of the cost of such arbitration (including the fees,
                if any, of the arbitrator) shall be determined by the arbitrator
                in the award.

        (b)     RESERVE FOR DISPUTED CLAIMS. At the time when any distribution
                is to be made to the holders of Allowed Claims, the Disbursing
                Agent shall withhold an amount equal to the distribution that
                would have been made on all Disputed Claims if they had been
                Allowed Claims. The Disbursing Agent shall hold such amount in
                an interest bearing, federally insured deposit account ("Claims
                Reserve") pending resolution of the Disputed Claim as provided
                herein.

        (c)     DISTRIBUTIONS ON DISPUTED CLAIMS. Not later than thirty days
                after the Disbursing Agent receives written notice that the
                allowability of a Disputed Claim is resolved, the Disbursing
                Agent shall pay to the Creditor holding such claim , from the
                Claims Reserve, (a) the portion of the distributions that were
                withheld on account of the Disputed Claim to which the holder
                thereof is entitled and (b) the interest accrued in the Claims
                Reserve on account of such portion. The portion of such
                distributions to which the holder is not entitled shall be
                returned to the Debtor.

ARTICLE II

Treatment of Claims

2.1     ACCEPTANCE OF AGREEMENT AS NOVATION; CONSIDERATION. By execution of a
        Consent, a Creditor accepts this Agreement and the payment of an amount
        equal to ten percent (10%) of its allowed Unsecured Claims, as
        contemplated hereby, in full settlement of its Unsecured Claims.
        Effective upon CMA's receipt of the funds identified in Article III
        below and subsequent distribution to Creditor of its pro rata portion
        thereof, Creditor hereby releases and discharges Debtor from any and all
        amounts due to Creditor in respect of its Unsecured Claims.

                                      158

ARTICLE III

Distributions

PROVISIONS FOR PAYMENT OF ALLOWED CLAIMS. Not later than the date on which the
Debtor's secured creditors, Union Bank of California and Silicon Valley Bank,
are paid approximately $3.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, the Debtor
shall pay to CMA, as Disbursing Agent, cash in an amount sufficient to pay ten
percent of the sum of Allowed Claims and Disputed Claims. Upon such payment, the
Security Interest shall be terminated. The Disbursing Agent's reasonable
expenses and a fee equal to five percent (5%) of the first $100,000 in
distributions by the Disbursing Agent, three percent (3%) of the next $900,000,
and one-half of one percent (.5%) of additional distributions shall be paid by
the Debtor. The Disbursing Agent shall serve as the agent and trustee of the
Creditors.

ARTICLE IV

Effective Date

4.1     ACCEPTANCE OF CREDITORS. This Agreement shall become effective only if
        it is accepted by the holders of 93% or more in dollar amount of
        Unsecured Claims or by such lower percentage to which the Debtor and the
        Committee agree. In determining such percentage, Unsecured Claims held
        by creditors who do not submit Consents shall be deemed to be in the
        amounts shown in the Debtor's books and records.

4.2     DEFINITION OF EFFECTIVE DATE. The "Effective Date" of this Agreement
        shall be the day on which the Disbursing Agent certifies that the
        required percentage of acceptances has been received. If such percentage
        has not been received by December 31, 2000, this Agreement shall be null
        and void and of no further effect.

ARTICLE V

General Provisions

5.1     GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement and all controversies relating to the
        subject matter hereof shall be governed by and determined in accordance
        with the laws of the State of California.

5.2     COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement, when executed by the Debtor and the
        Committee, and the Consents, when executed by Creditors, shall
        constitute a single agreement.

5.3     ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and the Consents shall constitute the
        entire agreement of the Debtor, the Creditors, and the Committee, and
        supersede and replace all prior and contemporaneous agreements,
        documents, or understandings, whether written or oral. All such prior
        and contemporaneous agreements, documents, and understandings shall have
        no legal effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Debtor and the Committee have executed this Agreement as
of the date written below, and each Creditor shall be deemed to have executed
this Agreement by execution of a Consent.
