         (a) ADMINISTRATION BY BOARD. The Board shall administer the Plan unless
and until the Board delegates administration to a Committee, as provided in
subsection 3(c).

         (b) POWERS OF BOARD. The Board shall have the power, subject to, and
within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:

             (i) To determine from time to time which of the persons eligible
under the Plan shall be granted Stock Awards; when and how each Stock Award
shall be granted; what type or combination of types of Stock Award shall be
granted; the provisions of each Stock Award granted (which need not be
identical), including the time or times when a person shall be permitted to
receive Common Stock pursuant to a Stock Award; and the number of shares of
Common Stock with respect to which a Stock Award shall be granted to each such
person.

             (ii) To construe and interpret the Plan and Stock Awards granted
under it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its
administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any
defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan or in any Stock Award Agreement,
in a manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the
Plan fully effective.

             (iii) To amend the Plan or a Stock Award as provided in Section 13.

             (iv) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as
the Board deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the
Company which are not in conflict with the provisions of the Plan.

the administrative powers the Committee is authorized to exercise (and
references in this Plan to the Board shall thereafter be to the Committee or
subcommittee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the
provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. The
Board may abolish the Committee at any time and revest in the Board the
administration of the Plan.

                                       4.
<PAGE>   5
             (ii) COMMITTEE COMPOSITION WHEN COMMON STOCK IS PUBLICLY TRADED. At
such time as the Common Stock is publicly traded, in the discretion of the
Board, a Committee may consist solely of two or more Outside Directors, in
accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code, and/or solely of two or more
Non-Employee Directors, in accordance with Rule 16b-3. Within the scope of such
authority, the Board or the Committee may (1) delegate to a committee of one or
more members of the Board who are not Outside Directors the authority to grant
Stock Awards to eligible persons who are either (a) not then Covered Employees
and are not expected to be Covered Employees at the time of recognition of

the Company wishes to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code and/or) (2)
delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board who are not
Non-Employee Directors the authority to grant Stock Awards to eligible persons
who are not then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

         (d) EFFECT OF BOARD'S DECISION. All determinations, interpretations and
constructions made by the Board in good faith shall not be subject to review by
any person and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons.

4.       SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.

         (a) SHARE RESERVE. Subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to
adjustments upon changes in Common Stock, the Common Stock that may be issued
pursuant to Stock Awards shall not exceed in the aggregate Seven Million
(7,000,000) shares of Common Stock, plus an annual increase to be added each
January 1, beginning January 1, 2002, equal to the lesser of Two Million Five
Hundred Thousand (2,500,000) shares or four and-a-half percent (4.5%) of the
total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such January 1.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may designate a smaller number of
shares of Common Stock to be added to the share reserve as of a particular
January 1.

         (b) REVERSION OF SHARES TO THE SHARE RESERVE. If any Stock Award shall
for any reason expire or otherwise terminate, in whole or in part, without
having been exercised in full, the shares of Common Stock not acquired under
such Stock Award shall revert to and again become available for issuance under
the Plan.

         (c) SOURCE OF SHARES. The shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan
may be unissued shares or reacquired shares, bought on the market or otherwise.

5.       ELIGIBILITY.

         (a) ELIGIBILITY FOR SPECIFIC STOCK AWARDS. Incentive Stock Options may
be granted only to Employees. Stock Awards other than Incentive Stock Options
may be granted to Employees, Directors and Consultants.

                                       5.
<PAGE>   6
         (b) TEN PERCENT STOCKHOLDERS. A Ten Percent Shareholder shall not be
granted an Incentive Stock Option unless the exercise price of such Option is at
least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common
Stock at the date of grant and the Option is not exercisable after the
expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant.

         (c) SECTION 162(m) LIMITATION. Subject to the provisions of Section 12
relating to adjustments upon changes in the shares of Common Stock, no Employee
shall be eligible to be granted Options covering more than two million
(2,000,000) shares of Common Stock during any calendar year.

         (d) CONSULTANTS.

             (i) A Consultant shall not be eligible for the grant of a Stock
Award if, at the time of grant, a Form S-8 Registration Statement under the
Securities Act ("Form S-8") is not available to register either the offer or the
sale of the Company's securities to such Consultant because of the nature of the
services that the Consultant is providing to the Company, or because the
Consultant is not a natural person, or as otherwise provided by the rules
governing the use of Form S-8, unless the Company determines both (i) that such
grant (A) shall be registered in another manner under the Securities Act (e.g.,
on a Form S-3 Registration Statement) or (B) does not require registration under
the Securities Act in order to comply with the requirements of the Securities
Act, if applicable, and (ii) that such grant complies with the securities laws
of all other relevant jurisdictions.

             (ii) Form S-8 generally is available to consultants and advisors
only if (i) they are natural persons; (ii) they provide bona fide services to
the issuer, its parents, its majority-owned subsidiaries or majority-owned
subsidiaries of the issuer's parent; and (iii) the services are not in
connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital-raising
transaction, and do not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for
the issuer's securities.

6.       OPTION PROVISIONS.

         Each Option shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. All Options shall be separately
designated Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options at the time of
grant, and, if certificates are issued, a separate certificate or certificates
will be issued for shares of Common Stock purchased on exercise of each type of
Option. The provisions of separate Options need not be identical, but each
Option shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in
the Option or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:

         (a) TERM. Subject to the provisions of subsection 5(b) regarding Ten
Percent Stockholders, no Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable after the
expiration of ten (10) years from the date it was granted.

         (b) EXERCISE PRICE OF AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. Subject to the
provisions of subsection 5(b) regarding Ten Percent Stockholders, the exercise
price of each Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than one hundred percent
(100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the Option on the
date the Option is granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Incentive Stock
Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that set

                                       6.
<PAGE>   7
forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an
assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the
provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code.

         (c) EXERCISE PRICE OF A NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION. The exercise price
of each Nonstatutory Stock Option shall be not less than eighty-five percent
(85%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the Option on the
date the Option is granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Nonstatutory Stock
Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that set forth in the
preceding sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or
substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section
424(a) of the Code.

         (d) CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of Common Stock acquired pursuant
to an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and
regulations, either (i) in cash at the time the Option is exercised or (ii) at
the discretion of the Board at the time of the grant of the Option (or
subsequently in the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option) (1) by delivery to the
Company of other Common Stock, (2) according to a deferred payment or other
similar arrangement with the Optionholder or (3) in any other form of legal
consideration that may be acceptable to the Board. Unless otherwise specifically
provided in the Option, the purchase price of Common Stock acquired pursuant to
an Option that is paid by delivery to the Company of other Common Stock
acquired, directly or indirectly from the Company, shall be paid only by shares
of the Common Stock of the Company that have been held for more than six (6)
months (or such longer or shorter period of time required to avoid a charge to
earnings for financial accounting purposes). At any time that the Company is
incorporated in Delaware, payment of the Common Stock's "par value," as defined
in the Delaware General Corporation Law, shall not be made by deferred payment.

In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest shall be compounded at
least annually and shall be charged at the minimum rate of interest necessary to
avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable provisions of the Code, of
any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest under the deferred payment
arrangement.

         (e) TRANSFERABILITY OF AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. An Incentive Stock
Option shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder
only by the Optionholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Optionholder may,
by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the
Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the
Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

         (f) TRANSFERABILITY OF A NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION. A Nonstatutory
Stock Option shall be transferable to the extent provided in the Option
Agreement. If the Nonstatutory Stock Option does not provide for
transferability, then the Nonstatutory Stock Option shall not be transferable
except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be
exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Optionholder may, by delivering written
notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, designate a third
party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be
entitled to exercise the Option.

                                       7.
<PAGE>   8
         (g) VESTING GENERALLY. The total number of shares of Common Stock
subject to an Option may, but need not, vest and therefore become exercisable in
periodic installments that may, but need not, be equal. The Option may be
subject to such other terms and conditions on the time or times when it may be
exercised (which may be based on performance or other criteria) as the Board may
deem appropriate. The vesting provisions of individual Options may vary. The
provisions of this subsection 6(g) are subject to any Option provisions
governing the minimum number of shares of Common Stock as to which an Option may
be exercised.

         (h) TERMINATION OF CONTINUOUS SERVICE. In the event an Optionholder's
Continuous Service terminates (other than upon the Optionholder's death or
Disability), the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that
the Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of
termination) but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i)
the date three (3) months following the termination of the Optionholder's
Continuous Service (or such longer or shorter period specified in the Option
Agreement), or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the
Option Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his
or her Option within the time specified in the Option Agreement, the Option
shall terminate.

         (i) EXTENSION OF TERMINATION DATE. An Optionholder's Option Agreement
may also provide that if the exercise of the Option following the termination of
the Optionholder's Continuous Service (other than upon the Optionholder's death
or Disability) would be prohibited at any time solely because the issuance of
shares of Common Stock would violate the registration requirements under the
Securities Act, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the
expiration of the term of the Option set forth in subsection 6(a) or (ii) the
expiration of a period of three (3) months after the termination of the
Optionholder's Continuous Service during which the exercise of the Option would
not be in violation of such registration requirements.

         (j) DISABILITY OF OPTIONHOLDER. In the event that an Optionholder's
Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder's Disability, the
Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder
was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of termination), but only
within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date twelve (12)
months following such termination (or such longer or shorter period specified in
the Option Agreement) or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set
forth in the Option Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does not
exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall
terminate.

         (k) DEATH OF OPTIONHOLDER. In the event (i) an Optionholder's
Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder's death or (ii)
the Optionholder dies within the period (if any) specified in the Option
Agreement after the termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service for a
reason other than death, then the Option may be exercised (to the extent the
Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of death) by
the Optionholder's estate, by a person who acquired the right to exercise the
Option by bequest or inheritance or by a person designated to exercise the
Option upon the Optionholder's death pursuant to subsection 6(e) or 6(f), but
only within the period ending on the earlier of (1) the date eighteen (18)
months following the date of death (or such longer or shorter period specified
in the Option Agreement) or (2) the expiration of the term of such Option as set
forth in the Option

                                       8.
<PAGE>   9
Agreement. If, after death, the Option is not exercised within the time
specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

         (l) EARLY EXERCISE. The Option may, but need not, include a provision
whereby the Optionholder may elect at any time before the Optionholder's
Continuous Service terminates to exercise the Option as to any part or all of
the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option prior to the full vesting of
the Option. Any unvested shares of Common Stock so purchased may be subject to a
repurchase option in favor of the Company or to any other restriction the Board
determines to be appropriate. The Company will not exercise its repurchase
option until at least six (6) months (or such longer or shorter period of time
required to avoid a charge to earnings for financial accounting purposes) have
elapsed following exercise of the Option unless the Board otherwise specifically
provides in the Option.

         (m) RE-LOAD OPTIONS.

             (i) Without in any way limiting the authority of the Board to make
or not to make grants of Options hereunder, the Board shall have the authority
(but not an obligation) to include as part of any Option Agreement a provision
entitling the Optionholder to a further Option (a "Re-Load Option") in the event
the Optionholder exercises the Option evidenced by the Option Agreement, in
whole or in part, by surrendering other shares of Common Stock in accordance
with this Plan and the terms and conditions of the Option Agreement. Unless
otherwise specifically provided in the Option, the Optionholder shall not
surrender shares of Common Stock acquired, directly or indirectly from the
Company, unless such shares have been held for more than six (6) months (or such
longer or shorter period of time required to avoid a charge to earnings for
financial accounting purposes).

             (ii) Any such Re-Load Option shall (1) provide for a number of
shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock surrendered
as part or all of the exercise price of such Option; (2) have an expiration date
which is the same as the expiration date of the Option the exercise of which
gave rise to such Re-Load Option; and (3) have an exercise price which is equal
to one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
subject to the Re-Load Option on the date of exercise of the original Option.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Re-Load Option shall be subject to the same
exercise price and term provisions heretofore described for Options under the
Plan.

             (iii) Any such Re-Load Option may be an Incentive Stock Option or a
Nonstatutory Stock Option, as the Board may designate at the time of the grant
of the original Option; provided, however, that the designation of any Re-Load
Option as an Incentive Stock Option shall be subject to the one hundred thousand
dollar ($100,000) annual limitation on the exercisability of Incentive Stock
Options described in subsection 9(d) and in Section 422(d) of the Code. There
shall be no Re-Load Options on a Re-Load Option. Any such Re-Load Option shall
be subject to the availability of sufficient shares of Common Stock under
subsection 4(a) and the "Section 162(m) Limitation" on the grants of Options
under subsection 5(c) and shall be subject to such other terms and conditions as
the Board may determine which are not inconsistent with the express provisions
of the Plan regarding the terms of Options.

                                       9.

7.       NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK OPTIONS.

         Without any further action of the Board, each Non-Employee Director
shall be granted Nonstatutory Stock Options as described in subsections 7(a) and
7(b) (collectively, "Non-Employee Director Options"). Each Non-Employee Director
Option shall include the substance of the terms set forth in subsections 7(c)
through 7(k).

         (a) INITIAL GRANTS. After the IPO Date, each person who is elected or
appointed for the first time to be a Non-Employee Director automatically shall,
upon the date of his or her initial election or appointment to be a Non-Employee
Director by the Board or stockholders of the Company, be granted an Initial
Grant to purchase forty thousand (40,000) shares of Common Stock on the terms
and conditions set forth herein. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, on the
IPO Date, each person then serving as a Non-Employee Director and who has not
previously been granted options to acquire Common Stock shall be deemed to have
been initially elected as a Non-Employee Director on such date.

         (b) ANNUAL GRANTS. After the IPO Date, each person who is a
Non-Employee Director on the Board on the day after the annual stockholders'
meeting, shall, on that date, be granted an Annual Grant to purchase fifteen
thousand (15,000) shares of Common Stock on the terms and conditions set forth
herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of shares of Common Stock
subject to an Annual Grant to a Non-Employee Director that has not served in
that capacity for the entire period since the preceding annual stockholders'
meeting shall be reduced, pro rata, for each full quarter the person did not
serve during such period.

         (c) TERM. Each Non-Employee Director Option shall have a term of ten
(10) years from the date it is granted.

         (d) EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price of each Non-Employee Director
Option shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the stock
subject to the Non-Employee Director Option on the date of grant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Non-Employee Director Option may be granted
with an exercise price lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if
such Non-Employee Director Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or
substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section
424(a) of the Code.

         (e) VESTING. Each Initial Grant shall vest one-third (1/3) per year
from the date on which it is granted. Each Annual Grant shall vest one-twelfth
(1/12) per month from the date on which it is granted.

         (f) CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to a
Non-Employee Director Option may be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable
statutes and regulations, in any combination of (i) cash or check, (ii) delivery
to the Company of other Common Stock, (ii) deferred payment or (iv) any other
form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board and provided in
the Non-Employee Director Option Agreement; provided, however, that at any time
that the Company is incorporated in Delaware, payment of the Common Stock's "par
value," as defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law, shall not be made by
deferred payment. In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest
shall be

                                      10.
<PAGE>   11
compounded at least annually and shall be charged at the minimum rate of
interest necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable
provisions of the Code, of any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest
under the deferred payment arrangement.

         (g) TRANSFERABILITY. A Non-Employee Director Option shall not be
transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall
be exercisable during the lifetime of the Non-Employee Director only by the
Non-Employee Director except as otherwise provided in a Stock Award Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Non-Employee Director may, by delivering
written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, designate
a third party who, in the event of the death of the Non-Employee Director, shall
thereafter be entitled to exercise the Non-Employee Director Option.

         (h) TERMINATION OF CONTINUOUS SERVICE. In the event a Non-Employee
Director's Continuous Service terminates (other than upon the Non-Employee
Director's death or Disability), the Non-Employee Director may exercise his or
her Non-Employee Director Option (to the extent that the Non-Employee Director
was entitled to exercise it as of the date of termination) but only within such
period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date three (3) months following
the termination of the Non-Employee Director's Continuous Service, or (ii) the
expiration of the term of the Non-Employee Director Option as set forth in the
Non-Employee Director Option Agreement. If, after termination, the Non-Employee
Director does not exercise his or her Non-Employee Director Option within the
time specified in the Non-Employee Director Option Agreement, the Non-Employee
Director Option shall terminate.

         (i) EXTENSION OF TERMINATION DATE. If the exercise of the Non-Employee
Director Option following the termination of the Non-Employee Director's
Continuous Service (other than upon the Non-Employee Director's death or
Disability) would be prohibited at any time solely because the issuance of
shares would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act,
then the Non-Employee Director Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the
expiration of the term of the Non-Employee Director Option set forth in
subsection 7(c) or (ii) the expiration of a period of three (3) months after the
termination of the Non-Employee Director's Continuous Service during which the
exercise of the Non-Employee Director Option would not violate such registration
requirements.

         (j) DISABILITY OF NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR. In the event a Non-Employee
Director's Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Non-Employee
Director's Disability, the Non-Employee Director may exercise his or her
Non-Employee Director Option (to the extent that the Non-Employee Director was
entitled to exercise it as of the date of termination), but only within such
period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date twelve (12) months
following such termination or (ii) the expiration of the term of the
Non-Employee Director Option as set forth in the Non-Employee Director Option
Agreement. If, after termination, the Non-Employee Director does not exercise
his or her Non-Employee Director Option within the time specified herein, the
Non-Employee Director Option shall terminate.

         (k) DEATH OF NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR. In the event (i) a Non-Employee
Director's Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Non-Employee
Director's death or (ii) the Non-Employee Director dies within the three-month
period after the termination of the Non-Employee Director's Continuous Service
for a reason other than death, then the Non-Employee

                                      11.
<PAGE>   12
Director Option may be exercised (to the extent the Non-Employee Director was
entitled to exercise the Non-Employee Director Option as of the date of death)
by the Non-Employee Director's estate, by a person who acquired the right to
exercise the Non-Employee Director Option by bequest or inheritance or by a
person designated to exercise the Non-Employee Director Option upon the
Non-Employee Director's death, but only within the period ending on the earlier
of (1) the date eighteen (18) months following the date of death or (2) the
expiration of the term of such Non-Employee Director Option as set forth in the
Non-Employee Director Option Agreement. If, after death, the Non-Employee
Director Option is not exercised within the time specified herein, the
Non-Employee Director Option shall terminate.

8.       PROVISIONS OF STOCK AWARDS OTHER THAN OPTIONS.

         (a) STOCK BONUS AWARDS. Each stock bonus agreement shall be in such
form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem
appropriate. The terms and conditions of stock bonus agreements may change from
time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate stock bonus agreements
need not be identical, but each stock bonus agreement shall include (through
incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise)
the substance of each of the following provisions:

             (i) CONSIDERATION. A stock bonus may be awarded in consideration
for past services actually rendered to the Company or an Affiliate for its
benefit.

             (ii) VESTING. Shares of Common Stock awarded under the stock bonus
agreement may, but need not, be subject to a share repurchase option in favor of
the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board.

             (iii) TERMINATION OF PARTICIPANT'S CONTINUOUS SERVICE. In the event
a Participant's Continuous Service terminates, the Company may reacquire any or
all of the shares of Common Stock held by the Participant which have not vested
as of the date of termination under the terms of the stock bonus agreement.

             (iv) TRANSFERABILITY. Rights to acquire shares of Common Stock
under the stock bonus agreement shall be transferable by the Participant only
upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the stock bonus agreement, as
the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long as Common Stock awarded
under the stock bonus agreement remains subject to the terms of the stock bonus
agreement.

         (b) RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS. Each restricted stock purchase agreement
shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board
shall deem appropriate. The terms and conditions of the restricted stock
purchase agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions
of separate restricted stock purchase agreements need not be identical, but each
restricted stock purchase agreement shall include (through incorporation of
provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of
each of the following provisions:

             (i) PURCHASE PRICE. The purchase price under each restricted stock
purchase agreement shall be such amount as the Board shall determine and
designate in such restricted stock purchase agreement. The purchase price shall
not be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of

                                      12.
<PAGE>   13
the Common Stock's Fair Market Value on the date such award is made or at the
time the purchase is consummated.

             (ii) CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of Common Stock acquired
pursuant to the restricted stock purchase agreement shall be paid either: (i) in
cash at the time of purchase; (ii) at the discretion of the Board, according to
a deferred payment or other similar arrangement with the Participant; or (iii)
in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board in
its discretion; provided, however, that at any time that the Company is
incorporated in Delaware, then payment of the Common Stock's "par value," as
defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law, shall not be made by deferred
payment.

             (iii) VESTING. Shares of Common Stock acquired under the restricted
stock purchase agreement may, but need not, be subject to a share repurchase
option in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be
determined by the Board.

             (iv) TERMINATION OF PARTICIPANT'S CONTINUOUS SERVICE. In the event
a Participant's Continuous Service terminates, the Company may repurchase or
otherwise reacquire any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by the
Participant which have not vested as of the date of termination under the terms
of the restricted stock purchase agreement.

             (v) TRANSFERABILITY. Rights to acquire shares of Common Stock under
the restricted stock purchase agreement shall be transferable by the Participant
only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the restricted stock
purchase agreement, as the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long as
Common Stock awarded under the restricted stock purchase agreement remains
subject to the terms of the restricted stock purchase agreement.

9.       COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

         (a) AVAILABILITY OF SHARES. During the terms of the Stock Awards, the
Company shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common Stock
required to satisfy such Stock Awards.

         (b) SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. The Company shall seek to obtain from
each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such
authority as may be required to grant Stock Awards and to issue and sell shares
of Common Stock upon exercise of the Stock Awards; provided, however, that this
undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act
the Plan, any Stock Award or any Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any
such Stock Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain
from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel for
the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock
under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to
issue and sell Common Stock upon exercise of such Stock Awards unless and until
such authority is obtained.

10.      USE OF PROCEEDS FROM STOCK.

         Proceeds from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Stock Awards shall
constitute general funds of the Company.

                                      13.
<PAGE>   14
11.      MISCELLANEOUS.

         (a) ACCELERATION OF EXERCISABILITY AND VESTING. The Board shall have
the power to accelerate the time at which a Stock Award may first be exercised
or the time during which a Stock Award or any part thereof will vest in
accordance with the Plan, notwithstanding the provisions in the Stock Award
stating the time at which it may first be exercised or the time during which it
will vest.

         (b) SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. No Participant shall be deemed to be the holder
of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares of
Common Stock subject to such Stock Award unless and until such Participant has
satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Stock Award pursuant to its
terms.

         (c) NO EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER SERVICE RIGHTS. Nothing in the Plan or any
instrument executed or Stock Award granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon
any Participant any right to continue to serve the Company or an Affiliate in
the capacity in effect at the time the Stock Award was granted or shall affect
the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate (i) the employment of an
Employee with or without notice and with or without cause, (ii) the service of a
Consultant pursuant to the terms of such Consultant's agreement with the Company
or an Affiliate or (iii) the service of a Director pursuant to the Bylaws of the
Company or an Affiliate, and any applicable provisions of the corporate law of
the state in which the Company or the Affiliate is incorporated, as the case may
be.

         (d) INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION $100,000 LIMITATION. To the extent that the
aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of Common Stock
with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time
by any Optionholder during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and
its Affiliates) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), the Options or
portions thereof which exceed such limit (according to the order in which they
were granted) shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options.

         (e) INVESTMENT ASSURANCES. The Company may require a Participant, as a
condition of exercising or acquiring Common Stock under any Stock Award, (i) to
give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the Participant's
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a
purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who is
knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business matters and that he or
she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser
representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Stock Award; and (ii) to
give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that the Participant
is acquiring Common Stock subject to the Stock Award for the Participant's own
account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing
the Common Stock. The foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant
to such requirements, shall be inoperative if (1) the issuance of the shares of
Common Stock upon the exercise or acquisition of Common Stock under the Stock
Award has been registered under a then currently effective registration
statement under the Securities Act or (2) as to any particular requirement, a
determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not
be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities laws. The
Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place legends on stock
certificates issued under the Plan as such counsel deems necessary or
appropriate in order to comply with

                                      14.
<PAGE>   15
applicable securities laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting
the transfer of the Common Stock.

         (f) WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS. To the extent provided by the terms of a
Stock Award Agreement, the Participant may satisfy any federal, state or local
tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or acquisition of Common
Stock under a Stock Award by any of the following means (in addition to the
Company's right to withhold from any compensation paid to the Participant by the
Company) or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii)
authorizing the Company to withhold shares of Common Stock from the shares of
Common Stock otherwise issuable to the Participant as a result of the exercise
or acquisition of Common Stock under the Stock Award, provided, however, that no
shares of Common Stock are withheld with a value exceeding the minimum amount of
tax required to be withheld by law; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and
unencumbered shares of Common Stock.

12.      ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK.

         (a) CAPITALIZATION ADJUSTMENTS. If any change is made in the Common
Stock subject to the Plan, or subject to any Stock Award, without the receipt of
consideration by the Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization, reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other
than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of
shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the
receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan will be appropriately
adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of securities subject to the Plan
pursuant to subsection 4(a) and the maximum number of securities subject to
award to any person pursuant to subsection 5(c), and the outstanding Stock
Awards will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and number of securities
and price per share of Common Stock subject to such outstanding Stock Awards.
The Board shall make such adjustments, and its determination shall be final,
binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the
Company shall not be treated as a transaction "without receipt of consideration"
by the Company.)

         (b) CHANGE IN CONTROL--DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION. In the event of a
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, then all outstanding Stock Awards
shall terminate immediately prior to such event.

         (c) CHANGE IN CONTROL--ASSET SALE, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR REVERSE
MERGER. In the event of (i) a sale, lease or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, (ii) a merger or consolidation
in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or (iii) a reverse merger
in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the
merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or
otherwise, then any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation shall assume
any Stock Awards outstanding under the Plan or shall substitute similar stock
awards (including an award to acquire the same consideration paid to the
Stockholders in the transaction described in this subsection 12(c) for those
outstanding under the Plan). In the event any surviving corporation or acquiring
corporation refuses to assume such Stock Awards or to substitute similar stock
awards for those outstanding under the Plan, then with respect to Stock Awards
held by Participants whose Continuous Service has not terminated, the vesting of
such Stock Awards (and, if applicable, the

                                      15.
<PAGE>   16
time during which such Stock Awards may be exercised) shall be accelerated in
full, and the Stock Awards shall terminate if not exercised (if applicable) at
or prior to such event. With respect to any other Stock Awards outstanding under
the Plan, such Stock Awards shall terminate if not exercised (if applicable)
prior to such event.

13.      AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND STOCK AWARDS.

         (a) AMENDMENT OF PLAN. The Board at any time, and from time to time,
may amend the Plan. However, except as provided in Section 12 relating to
adjustments upon changes in Common Stock, no amendment shall be effective unless
approved by the Stockholders of the Company to the extent shareholder approval
is necessary to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, Rule 16b-3
or any Nasdaq or securities exchange listing requirements.

         (b) SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. The Board may, in its sole discretion, submit
any other amendment to the Plan for shareholder approval, including, but not
limited to, amendments to the Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of
Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder regarding the
exclusion of performance-based compensation from the limit on corporate
deductibility of compensation paid to certain executive officers.

         (c) CONTEMPLATED AMENDMENTS. It is expressly contemplated that the
Board may amend the Plan in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable
to provide eligible Employees with the maximum benefits provided or to be
provided under the provisions of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder relating to Incentive Stock Options and/or to bring the Plan and/or
Incentive Stock Options granted under it into compliance therewith.

         (d) NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS. Rights under any Stock Award granted
before amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan
unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the Participant and (ii) the
Participant consents in writing.

         (e) AMENDMENT OF STOCK AWARDS. The Board at any time, and from time to
time, may amend the terms of any one or more Stock Awards; provided, however,
that the rights under any Stock Award shall not be impaired by any such
amendment unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the Participant and
(ii) the Participant consents in writing.

14.      TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.

         (a) PLAN TERM. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time.
Unless sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the day before the tenth
(10th) anniversary of the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or approved by
the Stockholders of the Company, whichever is earlier. No Stock Awards may be
granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.

         (b) NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS. Suspension or termination of the Plan
shall not impair rights and obligations under any Stock Award granted while the
Plan is in effect except with the written consent of the Participant.

                                      16.
<PAGE>   17
15.      EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.

The Plan shall become effective as determined by the Board, but no Stock Award
shall be exercised (or, in the case of a stock bonus, shall be granted) unless
and until the Plan has been approved by the Stockholders of the Company, which
approval shall be within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is
adopted by the Board.

16.      CHOICE OF LAW.

         The law of the State of Delaware shall govern all questions concerning
the construction, validity and interpretation of this Plan, without regard to
such state's conflict of laws rules.

                                      17.

                           2000 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

                  NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
                           (NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION)

         Pursuant to your Stock Option Grant Notice ("Grant Notice") and this
Stock Option Agreement, iPass Inc. (the "Company") has granted you an option
under its 2000 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") to purchase the number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock indicated in your Grant Notice at the
exercise price indicated in your Grant Notice. Defined terms not explicitly
defined in this Stock Option Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the
same definitions as in the Plan.

         The details of your option are as follows:

         1. VESTING. Subject to the limitations and provisions contained herein,
your option will vest as provided in your Grant Notice, provided that vesting
will cease upon the termination of your Continuous Service.

         2. NUMBER OF SHARES AND EXERCISE PRICE. The number of shares of Common
Stock subject to your option and your exercise price per share referenced in
your Grant Notice may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization
Adjustments, as provided in the Plan.

         3. EXERCISE PRIOR TO VESTING ("EARLY EXERCISE"). If permitted in your
Grant Notice (i.e., the "Exercise Schedule" indicates that "Early Exercise" of
your option is permitted) and subject to the provisions of your option, you may
elect at any time that is both (i) during the period of your Continuous Service
and (ii) during the term of your option, to exercise all or part of your option,
including the nonvested portion of your option; provided, however, that:

            (a) a partial exercise of your option shall be deemed to cover first
vested shares of Common Stock and then the earliest vesting installment of
unvested shares of Common Stock;

            (b) any shares of Common Stock so purchased from installments that
have not vested as of the date of exercise shall be subject to the purchase
option in favor of the Company as described in the Company's form of Early
Exercise Stock Purchase Agreement; and

            (c) you shall enter into the Company's form of Early Exercise Stock
Purchase Agreement with a vesting schedule that will result in the same vesting
as if no early exercise had occurred.

         4. METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the exercise price is due in full upon
exercise of all or any part of your option. You may elect to make payment of the
exercise price in cash or by check or by one or more of the following:

                                       1
<PAGE>   19
            (a) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, pursuant to a
program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board
that, prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the receipt of
cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay
the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.

            (b) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, by delivery of
already-owned shares of Common Stock either that you have held for the period
required to avoid a charge to the Company's reported earnings (generally six
months) or that you did not acquire, directly or indirectly from the Company,
that are owned free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security
interests, and that are valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise.
"Delivery" for these purposes, in the sole discretion of the Company at the time
you exercise your option, shall include delivery to the Company of your
attestation of ownership of such shares of Common Stock in a form approved by
the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not exercise your option by
tender to the Company of Common Stock to the extent such tender would violate
the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of
the Company's stock.

         5. WHOLE SHARES. You may exercise your option only for whole shares of
Common Stock.

         6. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, you may not exercise your option unless the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such exercise are then registered under the Securities Act
or, if such shares of Common Stock are not then so registered, the Company has
determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise of your option must also comply
with other applicable laws and regulations governing your option, and you may
not exercise your option if the Company determines that such exercise would not
be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.

         7. TERM. Except as otherwise provided herein, the term of your option
commences on the Date of Grant and expires upon the EARLIEST of the following:

            (a) three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service for any reason other than your Disability or death, provided that if
during any part of such three- (3-) month period your option is not exercisable
solely because of the condition set forth in the preceding paragraph relating to
"Securities Law Compliance," your option shall not expire until the earlier of
the Expiration Date or until it shall have been exercisable for an aggregate
period of three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous Service;

            (b) twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service due to your Disability;

                                       2
<PAGE>   20
            (c) eighteen (18) months after your death if you die either during
your Continuous Service or within three (3) months after your Continuous Service
terminates; or

            (d) the Expiration Date indicated in your Grant Notice.

         8. EXERCISE.

            (a) You may exercise your option during its term by delivering a
Notice of Exercise (in a form designated by the Company) together with the
exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to such other person as the
Company may designate, during regular business hours, together with such
additional documents as the Company may then require.

            (b) By exercising your option you agree that, as a condition to any
exercise of your option, the Company may require you to enter into an
arrangement providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax
withholding obligation of the Company arising by reason of the exercise of your
option.

            (c) TRANSFERABILITY. Your option is not transferable, except (i) by
will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and (ii) to such further extent
as permitted by the Rule as to Use of Form S-8 specified in the General
Instructions of the Form S-8 Registration Statement under the Securities Act.
Your option is exercisable during your life only by you or a transferee
satisfying the above-stated conditions. The right of a transferee to exercise
the transferred portion of your option after termination of your Continuous
Service shall terminate in accordance with your right to exercise your option as
specified in your option. In the event that your Continuous Service terminates
due to your death, your transferee will be treated as a person who acquired the
right to exercise your option by bequest or inheritance. In addition to the
foregoing, the Company may require, as a condition of the transfer of your
option to a trust or by gift, that your transferee enter into an option transfer
agreement provided by, or acceptable to, the Company. The terms of your option
shall be binding upon your transferees, executors, administrators, heirs,
successors, and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written
notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate
a third party who, in the event of your death, shall thereafter be entitled to
exercise your option.

         9. OPTION NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. Your option is not an employment or
service contract, and nothing in your option shall be deemed to create in any
way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ of the
Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your
employment. In addition, nothing in your option shall obligate the Company or an
Affiliate, their respective stockholders, Boards of Directors, Officers or
Employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a Director or
Consultant for the Company or an Affiliate.

         10. NOTICES. Any notices provided for in your option or the Plan shall
be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in
the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days after
deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last
address you provided to the Company.

         11. ACCELERATION OF VESTING AND PERIOD OF EXERCISABILITY FOLLOWING A
CHANGE IN CONTROL. In the event of the occurrence of a Change in Control (as
described in Section 12(c) of the Plan), your option (or any substituted option)
shall, as of the date of such Change in Control vest in full and become fully
exercisable (if applicable) to the extent not previously vested or exercisable,
and shall (notwithstanding Section 8 of this Stock Option Agreement) continue to
be exercisable for a period of twelve (12) months after termination of your
Continuous Service following the Change of Control event or until the Expiration
Date stated in your Grant Notice, whichever period is shorter.

         12. GOVERNING PLAN DOCUMENT. Your option is subject to all the
provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of your
option, and is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and
regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to
the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of your option and
those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
                   (INCENTIVE AND NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS)

         Pursuant to your Stock Option Grant Notice ("Grant Notice") and this
Stock Option Agreement, iPass Inc. (the "Company") has granted you an option
under its 2000 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") to purchase the number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock indicated in your Grant Notice at the
exercise price indicated in your Grant Notice. Defined terms not explicitly
defined in this Stock Option Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the
same definitions as in the Plan.

         The details of your option are as follows:

         1.       VESTING. Subject to the limitations and provisions contained
herein, your option will vest as provided in your Grant Notice, provided that
vesting will cease upon the termination of your Continuous Service.

         2.       NUMBER OF SHARES AND EXERCISE PRICE. The number of shares of
Common Stock subject to your option and your exercise price per share referenced
in your Grant Notice may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization
Adjustments, as provided in the Plan.

         3.       EXERCISE PRIOR TO VESTING ("EARLY EXERCISE"). If permitted in
your Grant Notice (i.e., the "Exercise Schedule" indicates that "Early Exercise"
of your option is permitted) and subject to the provisions of your option, you
may elect at any time that is both (i) during the period of your Continuous
Service and (ii) during the term of your option, to exercise all or part of your
option, including the nonvested portion of your option; provided, however, that:

         (a)      a partial exercise of your option shall be deemed to cover
                  first vested shares of Common Stock and then the earliest
                  vesting installment of unvested shares of Common Stock;

         (b)      any shares of Common Stock so purchased from installments that
                  have not vested as of the date of exercise shall be subject to
                  the purchase option in favor of the Company as described in
                  the Company's form of Early Exercise Stock Purchase Agreement;

         (c)      you shall enter into the Company's form of Early Exercise
                  Stock Purchase Agreement with a vesting schedule that will
                  result in the same vesting as if no early exercise had
                  occurred; and

         (d)      if your option is an incentive stock option, then, as provided
                  in the Plan, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market
                  Value (determined at the time of grant) of the shares of
                  Common Stock with respect to which your option plus all other
                  incentive stock options you hold are exercisable for the first
                  time by you during

                                       1.
<PAGE>   25
                  any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its
                  Affiliates) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000),
                  your option(s) or portions thereof that exceed such limit
                  (according to the order in which they were granted) shall be
                  treated as nonstatutory stock options.

         4.       METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the exercise price is due in
full upon exercise of all or any part of your option. You may elect to make
payment of the exercise price in cash or by check or in any other manner
PERMITTED BY YOUR GRANT NOTICE, which may include one or more of the following:

         (a)      In the Company's sole discretion at the time your option is
                  exercised and provided that at the time of exercise the Common
                  Stock is publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall
                  Street Journal, pursuant to a program developed under
                  Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board that,
                  prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the
                  receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of
                  irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price
                  to the Company from the sales proceeds.

         (b)      Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
                  publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street
                  Journal, by delivery of already-owned shares of Common Stock
                  either that you have held for the period required to avoid a
                  charge to the Company's reported earnings (generally six
                  months) or that you did not acquire, directly or indirectly
                  from the Company, that are owned free and clear of any liens,
                  claims, encumbrances or security interests, and that are
                  valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise.
                  "Delivery" for these purposes, in the sole discretion of the
                  Company at the time you exercise your option, shall include
                  delivery to the Company of your attestation of ownership of
                  such shares of Common Stock in a form approved by the Company.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not exercise your
                  option by tender to the Company of Common Stock to the extent
                  such tender would violate the provisions of any law,
                  regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the
                  Company's stock.

         (c)      Pursuant to the following deferred payment alternative:

                  (i)      Not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the
                           aggregate exercise price, plus accrued interest,
                           shall be due four (4) years from date of exercise or,
                           at the Company's election, upon termination of your
                           Continuous Service.

                  (ii)     Interest shall be compounded at least annually and
                           shall be charged at the minimum rate of interest
                           necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under
                           any applicable provisions of the Code, of any portion
                           of any amounts other than amounts stated to be
                           interest under the deferred payment arrangement.

                  (iii)    At any time that the Company is incorporated in
                           Delaware, payment of the Common Stock's "par value,"
                           as defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law,
                           shall be made in cash and not by deferred payment.

                                       2.
<PAGE>   26
                  (iv)     In order to elect the deferred payment alternative,
                           you must, as a part of your written notice of
                           exercise, give notice of the election of this payment
                           alternative and, in order to secure the payment of
                           the deferred exercise price to the Company hereunder,
                           if the Company so requests, you must tender to the
                           Company a promissory note and a security agreement
                           covering the purchased shares of Common Stock, both
                           in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, or
                           such other or additional documentation as the Company
                           may request.

         5.       WHOLE SHARES. You may exercise your option only for whole
shares of Common Stock.

         6.       SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, you may not exercise your option unless the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such exercise are then registered under the
Securities Act or, if such shares of Common Stock are not then so registered,
the Company has determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise of your option
must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing your
option, and you may not exercise your option if the Company determines that such
exercise would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.

         7.       TERM. You may not exercise your option before the commencement
of its term or after its term expires. The term of your option commences on the
Date of Grant and expires upon the EARLIEST of the following:

         (a)      three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous
                  Service for any reason other than your Disability or death,
                  provided that if during any part of such three- (3-) month
                  period your option is not exercisable solely because of the
                  condition set forth in the preceding paragraph relating to
                  "Securities Law Compliance," your option shall not expire
                  until the earlier of the Expiration Date or until it shall
                  have been exercisable for an aggregate period of three (3)
                  months after the termination of your Continuous Service;

         (b)      twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous
                  Service due to your Disability;

         (c)      eighteen (18) months after your death if you die either during
                  your Continuous Service or within three (3) months after your
                  Continuous Service terminates;

         (d)      the Expiration Date indicated in your Grant Notice; or

         (e)      the day before the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Date of
                  Grant.

         If your option is an incentive stock option, note that, to obtain the
federal income tax advantages associated with an "incentive stock option," the
Code requires that at all times beginning on the date of grant of your option
and ending on the day three (3) months before the date of your option's
exercise, you must be an employee of the Company or an Affiliate, except in the
event of your death or Disability. The Company has provided for extended
exercisability

                                       3.
<PAGE>   27
of your option under certain circumstances for your benefit but cannot guarantee
that your option will necessarily be treated as an "incentive stock option" if
you continue to provide services to the Company or an Affiliate as a Consultant
or Director after your employment terminates or if you otherwise exercise your
option more than three (3) months after the date your employment terminates.

         8.       EXERCISE.

         (a)      You may exercise the vested portion of your option (and the
                  unvested portion of your option if your Grant Notice so
                  permits) during its term by delivering a Notice of Exercise
                  (in a form designated by the Company) together with the
                  exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to such
                  other person as the Company may designate, during regular
                  business hours, together with such additional documents as the
                  Company may then require.

         (b)      By exercising your option you agree that, as a condition to
                  any exercise of your option, the Company may require you to
                  enter into an arrangement providing for the payment by you to
                  the Company of any tax withholding obligation of the Company
                  arising by reason of (1) the exercise of your option, (2) the
                  lapse of any substantial risk of forfeiture to which the
                  shares of Common Stock are subject at the time of exercise, or
                  (3) the disposition of shares of Common Stock acquired upon
                  such exercise.

         (c)      If your option is an incentive stock option, by exercising
                  your option you agree that you will notify the Company in
                  writing within fifteen (15) days after the date of any
                  disposition of any of the shares of the Common Stock issued
                  upon exercise of your option that occurs within two (2) years
                  after the date of your option grant or within one (1) year
                  after such shares of Common Stock are transferred upon
                  exercise of your option.

         (d)      By exercising your option you agree that the Company (or a
                  representative of the underwriter(s)) may, in connection with
                  the first underwritten registration of the offering of any
                  securities of the Company under the Securities Act, require
                  that you not sell, dispose of, transfer, make any short sale
                  of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any
                  hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect
                  as a sale, any shares of Common Stock or other securities of
                  the Company held by you, for a period of time specified by the
                  underwriter(s) (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days)
                  following the effective date of the registration statement of
                  the Company filed under the Securities Act. You further agree
                  to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be
                  reasonably requested by the Company and/or the underwriter(s)
                  that are consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary
                  to give further effect thereto. In order to enforce the
                  foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer
                  instructions with respect to your shares of Common Stock until
                  the end of such period.

         9.       TRANSFERABILITY.

                                       4.
<PAGE>   28
         (a)      If your option is an incentive stock option, your option is
                  not transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and
                  distribution, and is exercisable during your life only by you.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to
                  the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may
                  designate a third party who, in the event of your death, shall
                  thereafter be entitled to exercise your option.

         (b)      If your option is a nonstatutory stock option, your option is
                  not transferable, except (i) by will or by the laws of descent
                  and distribution, (ii) with the prior written approval of the
                  Company, by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary
                  trust, in a form accepted by the Company, in which the option
                  is to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustor
                  (settlor) and (iii) with the prior written approval of the
                  Company, by gift, in a form accepted by the Company, to your
                  "immediate family" as that term is defined in 17 C.F.R.
                  240.16a-1(e). The term "immediate family" is defined in 17
                  C.F.R. 240.16a-1(e) to mean any child, stepchild, grandchild,
                  parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling,
                  mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law,
                  brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, and includes adoptive
                  relationships. Your option is exercisable during your life
                  only by you or a transferee satisfying the above-stated
                  conditions. The right of a transferee to exercise the
                  transferred portion of your option after termination of your
                  Continuous Service shall terminate in accordance with your
                  right to exercise your option as specified in your option. In
                  the event that your Continuous Service terminates due to your
                  death, your transferee will be treated as a person who
                  acquired the right to exercise your option by bequest or
                  inheritance. In addition to the foregoing, the Company may
                  require, as a condition of the transfer of your option to a
                  trust or by gift, that your transferee enter into an option
                  transfer agreement provided by, or acceptable to, the Company.
                  The terms of your option shall be binding upon your
                  transferees, executors, administrators, heirs, successors, and
                  assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written
                  notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company,
                  you may designate a third party who, in the event of your
                  death, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise your option.

         10.      RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Shares of Common Stock that you
acquire upon exercise of your option are subject to any right of first refusal
that may be described in the Company's bylaws in effect at such time the Company
elects to exercise its right. The Company's right of first refusal shall expire
on the Listing Date.

         11.      RIGHT OF REPURCHASE. To the extent provided in the Company's
bylaws as amended from time to time, the Company shall have the right to
repurchase all or any part of the shares of Common Stock you acquire pursuant to
the exercise of your option.

         12.      OPTION NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. Your option is not an
employment or service contract, and nothing in your option shall be deemed to
create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the
employ of the Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to
continue your employment. In addition, nothing in your option shall obligate the
Company or an Affiliate, their respective shareholders, Boards of Directors,
Officers

                                       5.

or Employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a Director or
Consultant for the Company or an Affiliate.

         13.      WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.

         (a)      At the time you exercise your option, in whole or in part, or
                  at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby
                  authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts
                  payable to you, and otherwise agree to make adequate provision
                  for (including by means of a "cashless exercise" pursuant to a
                  program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the
                  Federal Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the Company),
                  any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and
                  foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or an
                  Affiliate, if any, which arise in connection with your option.

         (b)      Upon your request and subject to approval by the Company, in
                  its sole discretion, and compliance with any applicable
                  conditions or restrictions of law, the Company may withhold
                  from fully vested shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to
                  you upon the exercise of your option a number of whole shares
                  of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value, determined by the
                  Company as of the date of exercise, not in excess of the
                  minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law. If the
                  date of determination of any tax withholding obligation is
                  deferred to a date later than the date of exercise of your
                  option, share withholding pursuant to the preceding sentence
                  shall not be permitted unless you make a proper and timely
                  election under Section 83(b) of the Code, covering the
                  aggregate number of shares of Common Stock acquired upon such
                  exercise with respect to which such determination is otherwise
                  deferred, to accelerate the determination of such tax
                  withholding obligation to the date of exercise of your option.
                  Notwithstanding the filing of such election, shares of Common
                  Stock shall be withheld solely from fully vested shares of
                  Common Stock determined as of the date of exercise of your
                  option that are otherwise issuable to you upon such exercise.
                  Any adverse consequences to you arising in connection with
                  such share withholding procedure shall be your sole
                  responsibility.

         (c)      You may not exercise your option unless the tax withholding
                  obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied.
                  Accordingly, you may not be able to exercise your option when
                  desired even though your option is vested, and the Company
                  shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such
                  shares of Common Stock or release such shares of Common Stock
                  from any escrow provided for herein.

         14.      NOTICES. Any notices provided for in your option or the Plan
shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or,
in the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days
after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at
the last address you provided to the Company.

         15.      GOVERNING PLAN DOCUMENT. Your option is subject to all the
provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of your
option, and is further subject to all

                                       6.

interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time
be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the event of any conflict
between the provisions of your option and those of the Plan, the provisions of
the Plan shall control.

Whether or not the Board has delegated administration, the Board shall have the
final power to determine all questions of policy and expediency that may arise

        (b) The Board (or the Committee) shall have the power, subject to, and
within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:

               (i) To determine when and how Rights to purchase shares of the

(which need not be identical).

               (ii) To designate from time to time which Affiliates of the
Company shall be eligible to participate in the Plan.

               (iii) To construe and interpret the Plan and Rights granted under
it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its
administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any
defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan, in a manner and to the extent it
shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective.

               (iv) To amend the Plan as provided in paragraph 14.

               (v) To terminate or suspend the Plan as provided in paragraph 16.

the Board composed of two (2) or more members, all of the members of which
Committee may be, in the discretion of the Board, Non-Employee Directors and/or

<PAGE>   4

subcommittee of two (2) or more Outside Directors any of the administrative

Committee at any time and revest in the Board the administration of the Plan.

4.      SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.

        (a) Subject to the provisions of paragraph 13 relating to adjustments
upon changes in securities, the shares of the Common Stock that may be sold
pursuant to Rights granted under the Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate
seven hundred thousand (700,000) shares of the Common Stock (the "Reserved
Shares"). As of each January 1, beginning on January 1, 2002, and continuing
through and including January 1, 2010, the number of Reserved Shares will be
increased automatically by the lesser of (i) one percent (1%) of the total
number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on such January 1 or (ii) seven
hundred thousand (700,000) shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may
designate a smaller number of shares to be added to the share reserve as of a
particular January 1. If any Right granted under the Plan shall for any reason
terminate without having been exercised, the shares of the Common Stock not
purchased under such Right shall again become available for the Plan.

        (b) The shares of the Common Stock subject to the Plan may be unissued
shares of the Common Stock or shares of the Common Stock that have been bought
on the open market at prevailing market prices or otherwise.

5.      GRANT OF RIGHTS; OFFERING.

        The Board may from time to time grant or provide for the grant of Rights
to purchase shares of the Common Stock under the Plan to Eligible Employees in
an Offering on an Offering Date or Dates selected by the Board. Each Offering
shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board
shall deem appropriate, which shall comply with the requirements of Section
423(b)(5) of the Code that all Employees granted Rights to purchase shares of
the Common Stock under the Plan shall have the same rights and privileges. The
terms and conditions of an Offering shall be incorporated by reference into the
Plan and treated as part of the Plan. The provisions of separate Offerings need
not be identical, but each Offering shall include (through incorporation of the
provisions of this Plan by reference in the document comprising the Offering or
otherwise) the period during which the Offering shall be effective, which period
shall not exceed twenty-seven (27) months beginning with the Offering Date, and
the substance of the provisions contained in paragraphs 6 through 9, inclusive.

6.      ELIGIBILITY.

        (a) Rights may be granted only to Employees of the Company or, as the
Board may designate as provided in subparagraph 3(b), to Employees of an
Affiliate. Except as provided in subparagraph 6(b), an Employee shall not be
eligible to be granted Rights under the Plan unless, on the Offering Date, such
Employee has been in the employ of the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may
be, for such continuous period preceding such grant as the Board may require,
but

                                       4.
<PAGE>   5

in no event shall the required period of continuous employment be less than
ninety (90) days or equal to or greater than two (2) years; provided, however,
that Employees who are employed by the Company as of the Effective Date of this
Plan who would otherwise be Eligible Employees if not for the required period of
continuous employment with the Company shall be eligible to participate in the
Plan with respect to the first Offering Period without regard to their period of
prior continuous employment with the Company provided that they remain in
continuous employment through the end of the first Offering Period.

        (b) The Board may provide that each person who, during the course of an
Offering, first becomes an Eligible Employee will, on a date or dates specified
in the Offering which coincides with the day on which such person becomes an
Eligible Employee or which occurs thereafter, receive a Right under that
Offering, which Right shall thereafter be deemed to be a part of that Offering.
Such Right shall have the same characteristics as any Rights originally granted
under that Offering, as described herein, except that:

               (i) the date on which such Right is granted shall be the
"Offering Date" of such Right for all purposes, including determination of the
exercise price of such Right;

               (ii) the period of the Offering with respect to such Right shall
begin on its Offering Date and end coincident with the end of such Offering; and

               (iii) the Board may provide that if such person first becomes an
Eligible Employee within a specified period of time before the end of the
Offering, he or she will not receive any Right under that Offering.

        (c) No Employee shall be eligible for the grant of any Rights under the
Plan if, immediately after any such Rights are granted, such Employee owns stock
possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value
of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Affiliate. For purposes of this
subparagraph 6(c), the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in
determining the stock ownership of any Employee, and stock which such Employee
may purchase under all outstanding rights and options shall be treated as stock
owned by such Employee.

        (d) An Eligible Employee may be granted Rights under the Plan only if
such Rights, together with any other Rights granted under all Employee Stock
Purchase Plans of the Company and any Affiliates, as specified by Section
423(b)(8) of the Code, do not permit such Eligible Employee's rights to purchase
shares of the Common Stock or any Affiliate to accrue at a rate which exceeds
twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000) of the fair market value of such shares
of the Common Stock (determined at the time such Rights are granted) for each
calendar year in which such Rights are outstanding at any time.

        (e) The Board may provide in an Offering that Employees who are highly
compensated Employees within the meaning of Section 423(b)(4)(D) of the Code
shall not be eligible to participate.

                                       5.

7.      RIGHTS; PURCHASE PRICE.

        (a) On each Offering Date, each Eligible Employee, pursuant to an
Offering made under the Plan, shall be granted the Right to purchase up to the
number of shares of the Common Stock purchasable either:

               (i) with a percentage designated by the Board not exceeding
fifteen percent (15%) of such Employee's Earnings (as defined by the Board in
each Offering) during the period which begins on the Offering Date (or such
later date as the Board determines for a particular Offering) and ends on the
date stated in the Offering, which date shall be no later than the end of the
Offering; or

               (ii) with a maximum dollar amount designated by the Board that,
as the Board determines for a particular Offering, (1) shall be withheld, in
whole or in part, from such Employee's Earnings (as defined by the Board in each
Offering) during the period which begins on the Offering Date (or such later
date as the Board determines for a particular Offering) and ends on the date
stated in the Offering, which date shall be no later than the end of the
Offering and/or (2) shall be contributed, in whole or in part, by such Employee
during such period.

        (b) The Board shall establish one or more Purchase Dates during an
Offering on which Rights granted under the Plan shall be exercised and purchases
of shares of the Common Stock carried out in accordance with such Offering.

        (c) In connection with each Offering made under the Plan, the Board may
specify a maximum number of shares of the Common Stock that may be purchased by
any Participant as well as a maximum aggregate number of shares of the Common
Stock that may be purchased by all Participants pursuant to such Offering. In
addition, in connection with each Offering that contains more than one Purchase
Date, the Board may specify a maximum aggregate number of shares of the Common
Stock which may be purchased by all Participants on any given Purchase Date
under the Offering. If the aggregate purchase of shares of the Common Stock upon
exercise of Rights granted under the Offering would exceed any such maximum
aggregate amount, the Board shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares of
the Common Stock available in as nearly a uniform manner as shall be practicable
and as it shall deem to be equitable.

        (d) The purchase price of shares of the Common Stock acquired pursuant
to Rights granted under the Plan shall be not less than the lesser of:

               (i) an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair
market value of the shares of the Common Stock on the Offering Date; or

               (ii) an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair
market value of the shares of the Common Stock on the Purchase Date.

8.      PARTICIPATION; WITHDRAWAL; TERMINATION.

        (a)  An Eligible Employee may become a Participant in the Plan pursuant
to an Offering by delivering a participation agreement to the Company within the
time specified in the Offering, in such form as the Company provides. Each such
agreement shall authorize payroll

                                       6.
<PAGE>   7

deductions of up to the maximum percentage specified by the Board of such
Employee's Earnings during the Offering (as defined in each Offering). The
payroll deductions made for each Participant shall be credited to a bookkeeping
account for such Participant under the Plan and either may be deposited with the
general funds of the Company or may be deposited in a separate account in the
name of, and for the benefit of, such Participant with a financial institution
designated by the Company. To the extent provided in the Offering, a Participant
may reduce (including to zero) or increase such payroll deductions. To the
extent provided in the Offering, a Participant may begin such payroll deductions
after the beginning of the Offering. A Participant may make additional payments
into his or her account only if specifically provided for in the Offering and
only if the Participant has not already had the maximum permitted amount
withheld during the Offering.

        (b) At any time during an Offering, a Participant may terminate his or
her payroll deductions under the Plan and withdraw from the Offering by
delivering to the Company a notice of withdrawal in such form as the Company
provides. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of the
Offering except as provided by the Board in the Offering. Upon such withdrawal
from the Offering by a Participant, the Company shall distribute to such
Participant all of his or her accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to the
extent, if any, such deductions have been used to acquire shares of the Common
Stock for the Participant) under the Offering, without interest unless otherwise
specified in the Offering, and such Participant's interest in that Offering
shall be automatically terminated. A Participant's withdrawal from an Offering
will have no effect upon such Participant's eligibility to participate in any
other Offerings under the Plan but such Participant will be required to deliver
a new participation agreement in order to participate in subsequent Offerings
under the Plan.

        (c) Rights granted pursuant to any Offering under the Plan shall
terminate immediately upon cessation of any participating Employee's employment
with the Company or a designated Affiliate for any reason (subject to any
post-employment participation period required by law) or other lack of
eligibility. The Company shall distribute to such terminated Employee all of his
or her accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to the extent, if any, such
deductions have been used to acquire shares of the Common Stock for the
terminated Employee) under the Offering, without interest unless otherwise
specified in the Offering. If the accumulated payroll deductions have been
deposited with the Company's general funds, then the distribution shall be made
from the general funds of the Company, without interest. If the accumulated
payroll deductions have been deposited in a separate account with a financial
institution as provided in subparagraph 8(a), then the distribution shall be
made from the separate account, without interest unless otherwise specified in
the Offering.

        (d) Rights granted under the Plan shall not be transferable by a
Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or
by a beneficiary designation as provided in paragraph 15 and, otherwise during
his or her lifetime, shall be exercisable only by the person to whom such Rights
are granted.

9.      EXERCISE.

(a) On each Purchase Date specified therefor in the relevant Offering, each
Participant's accumulated payroll deductions and other additional payments
specifically

                                       7.
<PAGE>   8

provided for in the Offering (without any increase for interest) will be applied
to the purchase of shares of the Common Stock up to the maximum number of shares
of the Common Stock permitted pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the
applicable Offering, at the purchase price specified in the Offering. No
fractional shares of the Common Stock shall be issued upon the exercise of
Rights granted under the Plan unless specifically provided for in the Offering.

        (b) Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Offering, the amount,
if any, of accumulated payroll deductions remaining in any Participant's account
after the purchase of shares of the Common Stock that is equal to the amount
required to purchase one or more whole shares of the Common Stock on the final
Purchase Date of the Offering shall be distributed in full to the Participant at
the end of the Offering, without interest. If the accumulated payroll deductions
have been deposited with the Company's general funds, then the distribution
shall be made from the general funds of the Company, without interest. If the
accumulated payroll deductions have been deposited in a separate account with a
financial institution as provided in subparagraph 8(a), then the distribution
shall be made from the separate account, without interest unless otherwise
specified in the Offering. The amount of accumulated payroll deductions
remaining in any Participant's account that is less than the amount required to
purchase one whole share of Common Stock on the final Purchase Date of the
Offering shall be carried over to the next Offering or shall, if the Participant
requests or does not participate in the next Offering, be refunded.

        (c) No Rights granted under the Plan may be exercised to any extent
unless the shares of the Common Stock to be issued upon such exercise under the
Plan (including Rights granted thereunder) are covered by an effective
registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act and the Plan is in
material compliance with all applicable state, foreign and other securities and
other laws applicable to the Plan. If on a Purchase Date in any Offering
hereunder the Plan is not so registered or in such compliance, no Rights granted
under the Plan or any Offering shall be exercised on such Purchase Date, and the
Purchase Date shall be delayed until the Plan is subject to such an effective
registration statement and such compliance, except that the Purchase Date shall
not be delayed more than twelve (12) months and the Purchase Date shall in no
event be more than twenty-seven (27) months from the Offering Date. If, on the
Purchase Date of any Offering hereunder, as delayed to the maximum extent
permissible, the Plan is not registered and in such compliance, no Rights
granted under the Plan or any Offering shall be exercised and all payroll
deductions accumulated during the Offering (reduced to the extent, if any, such
deductions have been used to acquire Shares) shall be distributed to the
Participants, without interest unless otherwise specified in the Offering. If
the accumulated payroll deductions have been deposited with the Company's
general funds, then the distribution shall be made from the general funds of the
Company, without interest. If the accumulated payroll deductions have been
deposited in a separate account with a financial institution as provided in
subparagraph 8(a), then the distribution shall be made from the separate
account, without interest unless otherwise specified in the Offering.

10.     COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

        (a) During the terms of the Rights granted under the Plan, the Company
shall ensure that the number of shares of the Common Stock required to satisfy
such Rights are available.

                                       8.
<PAGE>   9

        (b) The Company shall seek to obtain from each federal, state, foreign
or other regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such
authority as may be required to issue and sell shares of the Common Stock upon
exercise of the Rights granted under the Plan. If, after reasonable efforts, the
Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the
authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance
and sale of shares of the Common Stock under the Plan, the Company shall be
relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell shares of the Common
Stock upon exercise of such Rights unless and until such authority is obtained.

11.     USE OF PROCEEDS FROM SHARES.

        Proceeds from the sale of shares of the Common Stock pursuant to Rights
granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company.

12.     RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER.

        A Participant shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of
the rights of a holder with respect to, shares of the Common Stock subject to
Rights granted under the Plan unless and until the Participant's shares of the
Common Stock acquired upon exercise of Rights under the Plan are recorded in the
books of the Company.

13.     ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN SECURITIES.

        (a) If any change is made in the shares of the Common Stock subject to
the Plan, or subject to any Right, without the receipt of consideration by the
Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization,
reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock
split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change
in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of
consideration by the Company), the Plan will be appropriately adjusted in the
class(es) and maximum number of shares of the Common Stock subject to the Plan
pursuant to subparagraph 4(a), and the outstanding Rights will be appropriately
adjusted in the class(es), number of shares of the Common Stock and purchase
limits of such outstanding Rights. The Board shall make such adjustments, and
its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any
convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a transaction that
does not involve the receipt of consideration by the Company.)

        (b)  In the event of: (i) a dissolution, liquidation, or sale of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (ii) a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation; or (iii) a
reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the shares
of the Common Stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted
by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities,
cash or otherwise, then: (1) any surviving or acquiring corporation may assume
Rights outstanding under the Plan or may substitute similar rights (including a
right to acquire the same consideration paid to the Company's stockholders in
the transaction described in this subparagraph 13(b)) for those outstanding
under the Plan, or (2) in the event any surviving or acquiring corporation does
not assume such Rights or substitute similar rights for those outstanding under
the Plan, then, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, such Rights

                                       9.
<PAGE>   10

may continue in full force and effect or the Participants' accumulated payroll
deductions (exclusive of any accumulated interest which cannot be applied toward
the purchase of shares of the Common Stock under the terms of the Offering) may
be used to purchase shares of the Common Stock immediately prior to the
transaction described above under the ongoing Offering and the Participants'
Rights under the ongoing Offering thereafter terminated.

14.     AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN.

        (a) The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the Plan.
However, except as provided in paragraph 13 relating to adjustments upon changes
in securities and except as to minor amendments to benefit the administration of
the Plan, to take account of a change in legislation or to obtain or maintain
favorable tax, exchange control or regulatory treatment for Participants or the
Company or any Affiliate, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the
stockholders of the Company to the extent stockholder approval is necessary for
the Plan to satisfy the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, Rule 16b-3
under the Exchange Act and any Nasdaq or other securities exchange listing
requirements. Currently under the Code, stockholder approval within twelve (12)
months before or after the adoption of the amendment is required where the
amendment will:

               (i) Increase the number of shares of the Common Stock
reserved for Rights under the Plan;

               (ii) Modify the provisions as to eligibility for participation in
the Plan to the extent such modification requires stockholder approval in order
for the Plan to obtain employee stock purchase plan treatment under Section 423
of the Code or to comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3; or

               (iii) Modify the Plan in any other way if such modification
requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to obtain employee stock
purchase plan treatment under Section 423 of the Code or to comply with the
requirements of Rule 16b-3.

        (b) It is expressly contemplated that the Board may amend the Plan in
any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable to provide Employees with the
maximum benefits provided or to be provided under the provisions of the Code and
the regulations promulgated thereunder relating to Employee Stock Purchase Plans
and/or to bring the Plan and/or Rights granted under it into compliance
therewith.

        (c) Rights and obligations under any Rights granted before amendment of
the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan, except with the
consent of the person to whom such Rights were granted, or except as necessary
to comply with any laws or governmental regulations, or except as necessary to
ensure that the Plan and/or Rights granted under the Plan comply with the
requirements of Section 423 of the Code.

15.     DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY.

        (a)  A Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who
is to receive any shares of the Common Stock and/or cash, if any, from the
Participant's account under the Plan in the event of such Participant's death
subsequent to the end of an Offering but prior to delivery to

                                      10.
<PAGE>   11

the Participant of such shares of the Common Stock and cash. In addition, a
Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive
any cash from the Participant's account under the Plan in the event of such
Participant's death during an Offering.

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

16.     TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.

        (a) The Board in its discretion may suspend or terminate the Plan at any
time. Unless sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate at the time that all of
the shares of the Common Stock subject to the Plan's reserve, as increased
and/or adjusted from time to time, have been issued under the terms of the Plan.
No Rights may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it
is terminated.

        (b) Rights and obligations under any Rights granted while the Plan is in
effect shall not be impaired by suspension or termination of the Plan, except as
expressly provided in the Plan or with the consent of the person to whom such
Rights were granted, or except as necessary to comply with any laws or
governmental regulation, or except as necessary to ensure that the Plan and/or
Rights granted under the Plan comply with the requirements of Section 423 of the
Code.

17.     EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.

        The Plan shall become effective simultaneously with the effectiveness of
the Company's registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to
the initial public offering of shares of the Company's Common Stock (the
"Effective Date"), but no Rights granted under the Plan shall be exercised
unless and until the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the Company
within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is adopted by the
Board, which date may be prior to the Effective Date.

                                      11.
