                             VALENCE TECHNOLOGY INC.
                         ("VLNC" NASDAQ NATIONAL MARKET)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Valence Technology Inc. (the "COMPANY") hereby agrees to sell and Carl E. Berg
(the "PURCHASER") agrees to purchase, in each case subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, up to $12,500,000 (the "PROPOSED INVESTMENT") of
the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 (the "SHARES"). This Agreement is
intended to be a binding agreement. The agreements between the parties will be
evidenced by a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (as described below), Warrant
Agreement and other related agreements described herein (collectively, the
"DEFINITIVE AGREEMENTS"). Upon the execution of this Agreement, the parties
shall be obligated to enter into Definitive Agreements memorializing the terms
described herein.

I.       STRUCTURE OF TRANSACTION:

          (a)  MULTIPLE PURCHASES. The Company will be permitted to sell and
               Purchaser agrees to purchase the Shares in one or more
               transactions, each one of which will involve no less than
               $500,000 in proceeds. The Company will initiate each sale by
               providing an irrevocable written notice to Purchaser (the "SALE
               NOTICE") specifying the number of shares it wishes to sell.
               Purchaser's commitment to purchase the Shares hereunder will
               expire, to the extent not utilized by the Company hereunder, on
               March 31, 2001.

          (b)  PRICING PERIOD AND SETTLEMENT DATE. The pricing of the Shares
               (the "PURCHASE PRICE") will be determined based on the average of
               the Daily Prices (as defined below) over the five (5) trading
               days on the Nasdaq National Market (each a "TRADING DAY")
               starting on the first Trading Day following the date on which the
               Sale Notice is delivered to Purchaser (a "PRICING PERIOD"). The
               purchase of the Shares shall be settled on the third business day
               following the expiration of the applicable Pricing Period (a
               "SETTLEMENT DATE").

          (c)  DAILY PRICE. The "DAILY PRICE" for purposes of this Agreement
               shall mean the Volume Weighed Average Price (based on a trading
               day from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.) on the Nasdaq National Market as
               reported by Bloomberg Financial LP using the AQR function for the
               Stock for such Trading Day.

          (d)  PURCHASE PRICE. The Purchase Price shall be 94% of the average
               Daily Prices during the Pricing Period.

<PAGE>

          (e)  WARRANTS. The Company shall issue to the Purchaser warrants to
               purchase up to 20% of the Shares purchased by Purchaser hereunder
               (the "Warrants"). The warrants issued will have a three (3) year
               life from the date of issuance and shall have an exercise price
               of 125% of the average Daily Prices during the applicable Pricing
               Period.

          (f)  RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The Shares, the Warrants and all Shares
               issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants have been and will be
               issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
               amended (the "Securities Act") and may not be sold, offered for
               sale, transferred, pledged or hypothecated without registration
               under the Act unless either (i) the Company has received an
               opinion of counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the
               Company, to the effect that registration is not required in
               connection with such disposition or (ii) the sale of such
               securities is made pursuant to SEC Rule 144.

II.      SETTLEMENT

          (a)  On each Settlement Date, the Company and the Purchaser will each
               execute and deliver a Common Stock Purchase Agreement in the form
               of Exhibit A attached hereto. Upon delivery of the executed
               agreement by the Purchaser, the Company will cause the physical
               delivery of a certificate of whole shares of stock, as calculated
               above, to the Purchaser against payment therefore to the
               Company's designated account by wire transfer of immediately
               available funds (provided that the Shares are received by the
               Purchaser no later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time) or next day
               available funds if the Shares are received thereafter.

III.     REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

          (a)  ORGANIZATION, GOOD STANDING AND POWER. The Company is a
               corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good
               standing under the laws of Delaware and has the requisite
               corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and

               enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and
               to issue and sell the Shares in accordance with the terms hereof

               Agreement by the Company and the consummation by it of the
               transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly
               authorized by all necessary corporate action. The undersigned
               officer of the Company has full authority to execute this
               Agreement and to bind the Company thereby. This Agreement has
               been duly executed and delivered by the Company. This Agreement
               constitutes, or shall constitute when executed and delivered, a
               valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against
               the Company in accordance with its terms.

          (b)  ISSUANCE OF SHARES. The Shares to be issued under this Agreement
               and the Purchase Agreement have been duly authorized by all
               necessary corporate action and, when paid for or issued in
               accordance with the terms hereof, the Shares shall be validly
               issued and outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable, and the
               Purchaser shall be entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of
               Common Stock.

                            VALENCE TECHNOLOGY, INC.

                            VOID AFTER JUNE 14, 2002

This certifies that, for value received, RIDGEWAY INVESTMENT LIMITED, or
registered assigns ("Holder") is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below,
to purchase from Valence Technology, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware
corporation, 7,500 shares of the Common Stock of the Company, as constituted on
the date hereof (the "Warrant Issue Date"), upon surrender hereof, at the
principal office of the Company referred to below, with the subscription form
attached hereto duly executed, and simultaneous payment therefor in lawful money
of the United States or otherwise as hereinafter provided, at the Exercise Price
as set forth in SECTION 2 below. The number, character and Exercise Price of
such shares of Common Stock are subject to adjustment as provided below. The
term "Warrant" as used herein shall include this Warrant and any warrants
delivered in substitution or exchange therefor as provided herein.

1. TERM OF WARRANT. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, this
Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, during the term commencing on
the Warrant Issue Date and ending at 5:00 p.m., Pacific Standard Time, on July
14, 2002 (the "Warrant Expiration Date"), and shall be void thereafter.

2. EXERCISE PRICE. The Exercise Price at which this Warrant may be exercised
shall be $7,5926 per share of Common Stock, as adjusted from time to time
pursuant to SECTION 11 hereof.

3. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

     3.1 The purchase rights represented by this Warrant are exercisable by the
Holder in whole or in part, but not for less than 1,000 shares at a time (or
such lesser number of shares which may then constitute the maximum number
purchasable; such number being subject to adjustment as provided in SECTION 11
below), at any time, or from time to time, during the term hereof as described
in SECTION 1 above, by the surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of Exercise
annexed

<PAGE>

hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, at the office of the
Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by
notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the
books of the Company), upon payment (i) in cash or by check acceptable to the
Company, (ii) by cancellation by the Holder of indebtedness of the Company to
the Holder, or (iii) by a combination of (i) and (ii), of the purchase price of
the shares to be purchased.

     3.2 This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior
to the close of business on the date of its surrender for exercise as provided
above, and the person entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of
such shares as of the close of business on such date. As promptly as practicable
on or after such date and in any event within ten (10) days thereafter, the
Company at its expense shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled
to receive the same a certificate or certificates for the number of shares
issuable upon such exercise. In the event that this Warrant is exercised in
part, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like
tenor exercisable for the number of shares for which this Warrant may then be
exercised.

4. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES OR SCRIP. No fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of
any fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the
Company shall make a cash payment equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such
fraction.

5. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANT. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant and, in
the case of loss, theft, or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement
reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company or, in the case of
mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall
execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and
amount. The Holder shall reimburse the Company for all reasonable expenses
incidental to replacement of this Warrant under this SECTION 5.

6. RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDERS. Subject to SECTIONS 9 and 11 of this Warrant, the
Holder shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the
holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company that may at any
time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything
contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any of the
rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of
directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof,
or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any
recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par
value, or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or
otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or
subscription rights or otherwise until the Warrant shall have been exercised and
the shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have been
issued, as provided herein.

7. TRANSFER OF WARRANT.

     7.1 WARRANT REGISTER. The Company will maintain a register (the "Warrant
Register") containing the names and addresses of the Holder or Holders. Any
holder of this Warrant or any portion thereof may change his address as shown on
the Warrant Register by written notice to the Company requesting such change.
Any notice or written communication required or permitted to

                                     Page 2
<PAGE>

be given to the Holder may be delivered or given by mail to such Holder as shown
on the Warrant Register and at the address shown on the Warrant Register. Until
this Warrant is transferred on the Warrant Register of the Company, the Company
may treat the Holder as shown on the Warrant Register as the absolute owner of
this Warrant for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

     7.2 WARRANT AGENT. The Company may, by written notice to the Holder,
appoint an agent for the purpose of maintaining the Warrant Register referred to
in Section 7.1 above, issuing the Common Stock or other securities then issuable
upon the exercise of this Warrant, exchanging this Warrant, replacing this
Warrant, or any or all of the foregoing. Thereafter, any such registration,
issuance, exchange, or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at the
office of such agent.

     7.3 TRANSFERABILITY AND NON-NEGOTIABILITY OF WARRANT. The Holder, by
acceptance hereof, agrees that, absent an effective registration statement filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT") covering the disposition or sale of
this Warrant or the Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise hereof, as the
case may be, and registration or qualification under applicable state securities
laws, such Holder will not sell, transfer, pledge, or hypothecate any or all of
this Warrant or such Common Stock, as the case may be, unless either (i) the
Company has received an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such registration is not
required in connection with such disposition or (ii) the sale of such securities
is made pursuant to SEC Rule 144.

     7.4 EXCHANGE OF WARRANT UPON A TRANSFER. On surrender of this Warrant for
exchange, properly endorsed on the Assignment Form and subject to the provisions
of this Warrant with respect to compliance with the Securities Act and with the
limitations on assignments and transfers and contained in this SECTION 7, the
Company at its expense shall issue to, or on the order of, the Holder a new
warrant or warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Holder or as the Holder
(on payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, for the
number of shares issuable upon exercise thereof.

     7.5 Compliance with Securities Laws.

          7.5.1 The Holder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant
and the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being
acquired solely for the Holder's own account and not as a nominee for any other
party, and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell, or
otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any shares of Common Stock to be issued
upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a
violation of the Act or any state securities laws. Upon exercise of this
Warrant, the Holder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a
form satisfactory to the Company, that the shares of Common Stock so purchased
are being acquired solely for the Holder's own account and not as a nominee for
any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or
resale.

          7.5.2 This Warrant and all shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise
hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the
following form (in addition to any legend required by state securities laws):

                                     Page 3
<PAGE>

          THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR UNDER THE
SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON
TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS
PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND THE APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO
REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE
REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD
OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN
FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED
TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS.

8. RESERVATION OF STOCK. The Company covenants that during the Term this Warrant
is exercisable, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock
upon the exercise of this Warrant and, from time to time, will take all steps
necessary to amend its Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate") to
provide sufficient reserves of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the Warrant. The Company further covenants that all shares that may be issued
upon the exercise of rights represented by this Warrant, upon exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price, all as set
forth herein, will be free from all taxes, liens, and charges in respect of the
issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring
contemporaneously or otherwise specified herein). The Company agrees that its
issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are
charged with the duty to executing stock certificates to execute and issue the
necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this
Warrant.

9. NOTICES.

     9.1 In case:

                    (i) The Company shall take a record of the holders of its

upon payment of the Exercise Price then in effect, the number of shares of stock
or other securities or property of the successor corporation resulting from such
reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer which a holder of the
shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled to
receive in such reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer if this
Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reorganization, merger,
consolidation, sale or transfer, all subject to further adjustment as provided
in this SECTION 11. The foregoing provisions of this Section 11.2 shall
similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales
and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are
at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. If the per share
consideration payable to the Holder hereof for shares in connection with any
such transaction is in a form other than cash or marketable securities, then the
value of such consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Company's
Board of Directors. In all events, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good
faith by the Company's Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of
the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the
Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Warrant
shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation
to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon exercise of
this Warrant.

     11.2 RECLASSIFICATION, ETC. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant,
or any portion thereof, remains outstanding and unexpired, shall, by
reclassification of securities or otherwise, change any of the securities as to
which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different
number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall
thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as
would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the
securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant
immediately prior to such reclassification or other change; the Exercise Price
therefor shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further adjustment as
provided in SECTION 11.

     11.3 SPLIT, SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF SHARES. If the Company at any
time while this Warrant, or any portion thereof, remains outstanding and
unexpired shall split, subdivide or combine the securities as to which purchase
rights under this Warrant exist, into a different number of securities of the
same class, the Exercise Price for such securities shall be proportionately
decreased in the case of a split or subdivision or proportionately increased in
the case of a combination.

     11.4 ADJUSTMENTS FOR DIVIDENDS IN STOCK OR OTHER SECURITIES OR PROPERTY. If
while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired the
holders of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist
at the time shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the
determination of eligible stockholders of the Company, shall have become
entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional stock or
other securities or property (other than cash) of the Company by way of
dividend, then and in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to
acquire, in addition to the number of shares of the security receivable upon
exercise of this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration
therefor, the amount of such other or additional stock or other securities or
property (other than cash) of the Company which such holder would hold on the
date of such exercise had it been the holder of record of the security
receivable upon exercise of this Warrant on the date hereof and had thereafter,
during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such
exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock available by it
as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for
during such period by the provisions of this SECTION 11.

     11.5 CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment
or readjustment pursuant to this SECTION 11, the Company at its expense shall
promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms
hereof and furnish to each holder of this Warrant a certificate setting forth
such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written
request, at any time, of any such holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to
such holder a like certificate setting forth: (i) such adjustments and
readjustments; (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect; and (iii) the
number of shares and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time
would be received upon the exercise of the Warrant.

     11.6 NO IMPAIRMENT. The Company will not, by any voluntary action, avoid or
seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed
or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith
assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this SECTION 11 and in the
taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect
the rights of the holders of this Warrant against impairment.
