Exhibit 10.29

Amendment
To
Atreve Software, Inc. 1997 Stock Option Plan

The Atreve Software, Inc. 1997 Stock Option Plan is hereby amended effective March 29, 2000 as follows (the “Plan”):

A.  A new Section 22 is added as follows:

22.   Definitions

             “Cause” means (i) any act of personal dishonesty taken by the Participant in connection with his responsibilities as an employee and
intended to result in substantial personal enrichment of the Participant, (ii) the conviction of a felony, (iii) a willful act by the Participant that constitutes gross misconduct and that is injurious to the Company, (iv) for a period of not less than
thirty (30) days following delivery to the Participant of a written demand for performance from the Company that describes the basis for the Company’s belief that the Participant has not substantially performed his duties, continued violations by the
Participant of the Participant’s obligations to the Company that are demonstrably willful and deliberate on the Participant’s part or (v) as otherwise provided in an option agreement.

             “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

              (i)  Any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended)
becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under said Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then
outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; 

              (ii)  Any action or event occurring within a two-year period, as a result of which fewer than a majority of the directors are
Incumbent Directors. “Incumbent Directors” shall mean directors who either (A) are directors of the Company as of the date hereof, or (B) are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board with the affirmative votes of at least a majority of
the Incumbent Directors at the time of such election or nomination (but shall not include an individual whose election or nomination is in connection with an actual or threatened proxy contest relating to the election of directors to the Company); 

              (iii)  The consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation
which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or the entity that controls such
surviving entity) at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company, such surviving entity or entity that controls such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or 

              (iv)  The consummation of the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.

B.  A new Section 23 is added as follows: 

23.   Termination of Service (Except by Death). Notwithstanding the exercise periods set forth in the Stock Option Agreement, exercise of an Option shall always be subject to the following:

             If the Optionee is Terminated for any reason except death or Disability, then Optionee may exercise such Optionee’s Options only to the extent
that such Options would have been exercisable upon the Termination Date no later than three (3) months after the Termination Date (or such shorter time period as may be specified in the Stock Option Agreement), but in any event, no later than the
expiration date of the Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company or any successor thereto terminates the Optionee’s employment without Cause within twelve months following a Change of Control, the Optionee’s Options, and restricted
stock acquired upon exercise of the Optionee’s Options or otherwise granted under the Plan shall become 100% vested and exercisable; provided, 

however, that no such acceleration shall occur in the event that it would preclude accounting for any business combination of the Company involving a Change of Control as a “pooling of interests.”

             Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan or any Award Agreement or other related agreement, in the event that any payment or benefit received
or to be received by the Optionee (whether pursuant to the terms of the Plan, any Award Agreement or other related agreement, or other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company, any person whose actions result in a Change in Control or any person
affiliated with the Company or such person) (all such payments and benefits being hereinafter called “Total Payments”) would be subject (in whole or part), to any excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”),
then, after taking into account any reduction in the Total Payments provided by reason of Section 280G of the Code in such other plan, arrangement or agreement, the payment or benefit received or to be received by the Optionee (whether pursuant to the
terms of t
he Plan, any Option Agreement, Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement or other related agreement) shall be reduced, to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax but only if (A) the net amount of such Total
Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to (B) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the
net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which the Optionee would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments).

             Unless the Company and the Optionee otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section shall be made in writing by the
Company’s independent public accountants (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Optionee and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section, the
Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and the Optionee shall furnish
to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations
contemplated by thi
s Section.Exhibit 10.8

Agreement and subject to the terms of the Plan; and

          WHEREAS, the Executive desires to acquire the Option on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement and subject to the terms of the Plan;

          IT IS AGREED:

          1. Grant of Stock Option. The Company hereby grants the Executive the
Option to purchase all or any part of an aggregate of 100,000 shares of Common
Stock (the "Option Shares") on the terms and conditions set forth herein and
subject to the provisions of the Plan.

          2. Incentive Stock Option. The Option represented hereby is intended

<PAGE>

          5. Effect of Termination of Employment.

                    5.1 Certain Termination.

                        5.1.1 If Executive's employment is terminated by the
Company "for cause," pursuant to paragraph 7(iii) of the Employment Agreement
between Gaines, Berland Inc. and Executive dated as of August 24, 1999
("Employment Agreement"), the Option, whether or not then exercisable, shall
immediately expire upon such termination.

                        5.1.2 The Company may, in the event the Executive's
employment is terminated by the Company "for cause" pursuant to Section 7(iii),
require the Executive to return to the Company the economic value of any Option
Shares purchased hereunder by the Executive within the six month period prior to
the date of termination. In such event, the Executive hereby agrees to remit to
the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market
Value of the Option Shares on the date of termination (or the sales price of
such Shares if the Option Shares were sold during such six month period) and the
Exercise Price of such Shares.

                    5.2 Other Termination. If Executive's employment is
terminated for any reason other than as specified in Section 5.1 hereof, then
the Option shall not terminate, whether or not then exercisable, and it shall
continue to become exercisable pursuant to the schedule provided in Section 4
hereof and, once exercisable, shall continue in full force and effect during the
Exercise Period.

                    5.3 No Effect on Incentive Nature. The provisions of
Sections 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3, above, shall not affect the "incentive" nature of the
Option under Section 422 of the Code until such time as the Executive takes
advantage of any provision of Sections 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 which would violate
Section 422, in which event, the affected portion of the Option shall become
"nonincentive" in nature.

                    5.4 Violation of Paragraph 6 of the Employment Agreement. In
the event that, Executive breaches the provisions of paragraph 6 of the
Employment Agreement, the Board, in its sole discretion, may require such
Executive to return to the Company the economic value of any Option Shares
purchased hereunder by the Executive within the six month period prior to the
date of termination of employment and may cancel any unexercised options. In
such event, Executive agrees to remit the economic value to the Company in
accordance with Section 5.1.2.

          6. Withholding Tax. Not later than the date as of which an amount
first becomes includible in the gross income of the Executive for Federal income
tax purposes with respect to the Option, the Executive shall pay to the Company,
or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding the payment of, any
Federal, state and local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld or
paid with respect to such amount. The obligations of the Company under the Plan
and pursuant to this Agreement shall be conditional upon such payment or
arrangements with the Company and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by
law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind
otherwise due to the Executive from the Company.

                                       2

<PAGE>

          7. Adjustments. In the event of any reorganization, consolidation,
dividend (other than cash dividend), stock split, reverse stock split, or other
similar change in corporate structure affecting the number of issued shares of
Common Stock as a whole, the Company shall proportionally adjust the number and
kind of Option Shares and the exercise price of the Option in order to prevent
the dilution or enlargement of the Executive's proportionate interest in the
Company and his rights hereunder, provided that the number of Option Shares
shall always be a whole number.

          8. Method of Exercise.

                    8.1 Notice to the Company. The Option shall be exercised in
whole or in part by written notice in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A directed to the Company at its principal place of business accompanied
by full payment as hereinafter provided of the exercise price for the number of
Option Shares specified in the notice.

                    8.2 Delivery of Option Shares. The Company shall deliver a
certificate for the Option Shares to the Executive as soon as practicable after
payment therefor.

                    8.3 Payment of Purchase Price.

                        8.3.1 Cash Payment. The Executive shall make cash
payments by wire transfer, certified or bank check or personal check, in each
case payable to the order of the Company; the Company shall not be required to
deliver certificates for Option Shares until the Company has confirmed the
receipt of good and available funds in payment of the purchase price thereof.

                        8.3.2 Cashless Payment. At the election of the
Executive, the purchase price for any or all of the Option Shares to be acquired
may be paid by: (i) the surrender of shares of Common Stock of the Company held
by or for the account of the Executive with a "fair market value" equal to the
purchase price multiplied by the number of Option Shares to be purchased, or
(ii) the surrender of any exercisable but unexercised portion of the Option
having a "value" equal to the purchase price multiplied by the number of Option
Shares to be purchased. In either case, the fair market value of the surrendered
shares or the value of the options shall be determined as of the date of
exercise as follows: "Fair market value" of the Common Stock means, as of the
exercise date: (i) if the Common Stock is listed on a national securities
exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market or Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the
last sale price of the Common Stock in the principal trading market for the
Common Stock on the last day trading day preceding such date, as reported by the
exchange or Nasdaq, as the case may be; (ii) if the Common Stock is not listed
on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market or
Nasdaq SmallCap Market, but is traded in the over-the-counter market, the
closing bid price of the Common Stock on the last trading day preceding such
date for which such quotations are reported by the National Quotation Bureau,
Incorporated or similar publisher of such quotations; and (iii) if the fair
market value of the Common Stock cannot be determined pursuant to clause (i) or
(ii) above, such price as the Company shall determine, in good faith. The
"value" of a surrendered portion of the Option means, as of the exercise date,

                                       3

<PAGE>

an amount equal to the excess of the total fair market value of the shares of
Common Stock underlying the surrendered portion of the Option (as determined in
accordance with the immediately preceding sentence) over the total purchase
price of such shares of Common Stock underlying the surrendered portion of the
Option. The Company shall issue a certificate or certificates evidencing the
Option Shares as soon as practicable after the notice and payment is received.
The certificate or certificates evidencing the Option Shares shall be registered
in the name of the person or persons so exercising the Option.

                        8.3.3 Payment Through Bank or Broker. At the election of
the Executive, the Executive may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company
with a Bank or broker who is a member of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. to either (a) sell on the exercise date a sufficient number of the
Option Shares being purchased so that the net proceeds of the sale transaction
will at least equal the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares
being purchased pursuant to such exercise, plus the amount of any applicable
withholding taxes and pursuant to which the bank or broker undertakes
irrevocably to deliver the full Exercise Price multiplied by the number of
Option Shares being purchased pursuant to such exercise, plus the amount of any
applicable withholding taxes to the Company on a date satisfactory to the
Company, but no later than the date on which the sale transaction would settle
in the ordinary course of business or (b) obtain a "margin commitment" from the
bank or broker pursuant to which the bank or broker undertakes irrevocably to
deliver the full Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares being
purchased pursuant to such exercise, plus the amount of any applicable
withholding taxes to the Company, immediately upon receipt of the Option Shares.

                        8.3.4 Payment Price of Withholding Tax. Any required
withholding tax may be paid in cash or with Common Stock in accordance with
Sections 8.3.1., 8.3.2. or 8.3.3

                        8.3.5 Exchange Act Compliance. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall have the right to reject payment in the form of
Common Stock if in the opinion of counsel for the Company, (i) it could result
in an event of "recapture" under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934; (ii) such shares of Common Stock may not be sold or transferred to the
Company; or (iii) such transfer could create legal difficulties for the Company.

          9. Nonassignability. The Option shall not be assignable or
transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution in the
event of the death of the Executive. No transfer of the Option by the Executive
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution shall be effective to bind
the Company unless the Company shall have been furnished with written notice
thereof and a copy of the will and such other evidence as the Company may deem
necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and the acceptance by the
transferee or transferees of the terms and conditions of the Option.

          10. Company Representations. The Company hereby represents and
warrants to the Executive that:

                                       4

the investment in the Option Shares, which cannot be sold by his unless they are
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") or an exemption
therefrom is available thereunder and that the Company is under no obligation to
register the Option Shares for sale under the 1933 Act;

                    (4) in his position with the Company, he has had both the
opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the officers and directors
of the Company and all persons acting on its behalf concerning the terms and
conditions of the offer made hereunder and to obtain any additional information
to the extent the Company possesses or may possess such information or can
acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense necessary to verify the
accuracy of the information obtained pursuant to clause (ii) above;

                    (5) he is aware that the Company shall place stop transfer
orders with its transfer agent against the transfer of the Option Shares in the
absence of registration under the 1933 Act or an exemption therefrom as provided
herein; and

                    (6) The certificates evidencing the Option Shares shall bear
the following legend:

                    "The shares represented by this certificate have been
                    acquired for investment and have not been registered under
                    the Securities Act of 1933. The shares may not be sold or
                    transferred in the absence of such registration or an
                    exemption therefrom under said Act."

                                       5
<PAGE>

          12. Restriction on Transfer of Option Shares. Anything in this
Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Executive hereby agrees that he
shall not sell, transfer by any means or otherwise dispose of the Option Shares
acquired by him without registration under the 1933 Act, or in the event that
they are not so registered, unless (i) an exemption from the 1933 Act
registration requirements is available thereunder, and (ii) the Executive has
furnished the Company with notice of such proposed transfer and the Company's
legal counsel, in its reasonable opinion, shall deem such proposed transfer to
be so exempt.

          13. Miscellaneous.

                    13.1 Notices. All notices, requests, deliveries, payments,
