Dear Jim:

I am pleased to provide you with the terms and conditions of our offer of
employment to you by Sonus Networks, Inc. ("Sonus" or the "Company").

        1.      Position. Your title will be Vice President, Worldwide Sales of
                --------
                the Company and you will also be an executive officer of the
                Company for SEC reporting purposes. You will report to me as the
                President and Chief Operating Officer of Sonus. You will have
                overall responsibility for Sales as well as responsibility for
                the Company's Network Services Organization. In addition to
                performing duties and responsibilities associated with the
                position of Vice President, Sales, from time to time the Company
                may assign you other duties and responsibilities not
                inconsistent with your position and responsibilities set forth
                above. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 8 hereof, your
                place of work will be at Sonus' headquarters. As a full-time
                employee of the Company, you will be expected to devote your
                full business time and energies to the business and affairs of
                the Company, provided that you may sit on the Boards of no more
                than two companies not in competition with Sonus with prior
                approval of the Company, and you may sit on charitable Boards,
                provided that such participation does not interfere with your
                provision of services to the Company hereunder and your total
                commitment to outside boards does not exceed two.. In the event
                the Company introduces the use of Senior Vice President or
                Executive Vice President to designate its executive officers,
                your title will be modified to reflect the relevant designation.

        2.      Starting Date/Nature of Relationship. It is expected that your
                ------------------------------------
                employment will start on or about May 1, 2006 (the "Start
                Date"). No provision of this letter shall be construed to create
                an express or implied employment contract for a specific period
                of time. Employment at Sonus Networks, Inc. is considered "at
                will" and either you or the Company may terminate the employment
                relationship at any time and for any reason, subject to the
                provisions of this letter.

        3.      Compensation.
                ------------

                (a) Your initial base salary will be at the rate of $300,000
                    annually, which will be reviewed annually and may, but is
                    not required to be increased as a result of such review.
                    Your salary may not be decreased except as part of a plan,
                    to which you agree, in which the salary of all executive
                    officers is decreased uniformly in order to address exigent
                    circumstances in the business that may arise in the future.

<PAGE>

                (b) You will be eligible to participate in the Executive
                    Incentive Compensation Program with a target of 100% of
                    annual base salary (your "On Target Bonus"), which will be
                    payable on a quarterly basis, and for 2006 will be pro rated
                    for the number of days in 2006 that you are employed with
                    the Company. Your On Target Bonus for 2006 shall be based on
                    the following: 40% based on a bookings target; 40% based on
                    a revenue target; and 20% based on an operating profit
                    target. The specific objectives will be based on the
                    Company's 2006 Operating Plan. For fiscal year 2006 (ending
                    December 31, 2006) payment of fifty percent (50%) of your
                    pro rated On Target Bonus will be guaranteed (the
                    "Guaranteed Portion"). The Guaranteed Portion will be paid
                    in three equal installments on July 31, 2006, October 31,
                    2006 and December 31, 2006. The details of your On Target
                    Bonus for 2007 going forward will be developed with you
                    based on your duties and responsibilities with the Company.
                    Your base salary and On Target Bonus for any year will be
                    referred to in this letter as your "Total Cash
                    Compensation."

                (c) You will be granted an option to purchase 650,000 shares
                    (the "Shares") of common stock of the Company under the
                    Company's Incentive Stock Plan (the "New Hire Option
                    Grant"), subject to the terms of the Plan and approval of
                    the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of
                    Directors. The New Hire Option Grant will permit you to
                    purchase the Shares at a price equal to the closing price of
                    the Company's common stock on the NASDAQ National Market on
                    the grant date set by the Compensation Committee. The New
                    Hire Option Grant shall vest and become exercisable (i) with
                    respect to 25% of the Shares on the first anniversary of the
                    date that your employment with the Company commences
                    ("Employment Date") and, (ii) with respect to the remaining
                    75% of the Shares, in equal increments of 2.0833% of the
                    Shares shall vest monthly thereafter through the fourth
                    anniversary of the date of employment. In the event that you
                    cease to be employed by the Company for any reason, then you
                    shall have at least 90 days to exercise such options (to the
                    extent that the Compensation Committee of the Board of
                    Directors of the Company has the authority to permit, or
                    that the Company's Incentive Stock Plan permits, such 90 day
                    period to be extended if and to the extent that there are
                    trading restrictions applicable to the option shares during
                    this 90 day period).

                (d) You will also be awarded 200,000 shares of the Company's
                    common stock, $0.001 par value, (the "Restricted Shares")
                    under the Company's Incentive Stock Plan (the "Restricted
                    Stock Grant"), subject to the terms of the Plan, the
                    restrictions set forth in a Restricted Stock Agreement to be
                    entered into by the parties and approval of the Compensation
                    Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. The
                    Restricted Shares shall vest and become exercisable (i) with
                    respect to 80,000 Restricted Shares on December 31, 2006,
                    (ii) with respect to 40,000 Restricted Shares on April 30,
                    2007, (iii) with respect to 30,000 Restricted Shares on
                    October 31, 2007 and (iv) with respect to the remaining
                    50,000 Restricted Shares on May 1, 2008. If there is tax
                    withholding required as a result of the vesting of
                    Restricted Shares, the Company will work with you to
                    determine a method for you to satisfy the withholding
                    obligation either by permitting you to remit Restricted
                    Shares to the Company or by some other method such that your
                    obligation is satisfied directly or indirectly through the
                    transfer of Restricted Shares.

                (e) In the event of an Acquisition (as defined below), any of
                    the Shares in the New Hire Option Grant or any Restricted
                    Shares in the Restricted Stock Grant, which are not then
                    vested or exercisable but which shall vest within 24 months
                    of the Acquisition, shall immediately become 100% vested and
                    exercisable upon the consummation of the Acquisition.

                    a majority of the combined, voting securities of the Company

                -----------
                is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause, or
                if you resign from the Company for Good Reason, then in either
                case you will be eligible to receive 12 months of Total Cash
                Compensation payments equal to the amount of your annual base
                salary at the time of your termination, payable in accordance
                with normal payroll practices. Your health, dental and eye-care
                benefits will also continue during the twelve month period
                following the termination of your employment. In the event that
                your employment with the Company is terminated for Cause, the
                provisions of this paragraph related to your ability to
                terminate your employment for Good Reason shall not apply.

                For the purposes of this letter, "Cause" means (i) your willful

      Corporation (the “Exchange Agent”) to mail a letter of transmittal in the form
      attached hereto as Exhibit C to each record holder of outstanding Target Shares
      for the holder to use in surrendering the certificates that represented his,
      her, or its Target Shares in exchange for a certificate representing the number
      of Buyer Shares to which he, she, or it is entitled.

    

    (ii)
      Buyer will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Buyer Shares (with
      a
      record date at or after the Effective Time) to any record holder of outstanding
      Target Shares until the holder surrenders for exchange his, her, or its
      certificates that represented Target Shares. Buyer instead will pay the dividend
      or make the distribution to the Exchange Agent in trust for the benefit of
      the
      holder pending surrender and exchange. Buyer may cause the Exchange Agent to
      invest any cash the Exchange Agent receives from Buyer as a dividend or
      distribution in one or more of the permitted investments set forth on Exhibit
      D
      attached hereto; provided,

      that
      the terms and conditions of the investments shall be such as to permit the
      Exchange Agent to make prompt payments of cash to the holders of outstanding
      Target Shares as necessary. Buyer may cause the Exchange Agent to pay over
      to
      Buyer any net earnings with respect to the investments, and Buyer will replace
      promptly any cash that the Exchange Agent loses through investments. In no
      event, however, will any holder of outstanding Target Shares be entitled to
      any
      interest or earnings on the dividend or distribution pending
      receipt.

    

    (iii)
      Buyer may cause the Exchange Agent to return any Buyer Shares and dividends
      and
      distributions thereon remaining unclaimed 180 days after the Effective Time,
      and
      thereafter each remaining record holder of outstanding Target Shares shall
      be
      entitled to look to Buyer, subject to abandoned property, escheat, and other
      similar laws, as a general creditor thereof with respect to the Buyer Shares
      and
      dividends and distributions thereon to which he, she, or it is entitled upon
      surrender of his, her, or its certificates.

      Agent.

      Shares. The newly issued Buyer Shares contemplated by this Agreement have not
      been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state

      registration thereunder are available. 

    

    (j)
      Adjustments.
      The
      exchange of shares contemplated under this Agreement shall be adjusted to
      reflect fully the effect of any reclassification, stock split, reverse split,
      stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible
      into Buyer Shares), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with
      respect to Buyer Shares occurring, or for which a record date is established,
      after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

      supplement thereto), at the time filed with the SEC, at the time first mailed
      to
      the stockholders of Buyer and at the time of the Special Buyer Meeting, as
      the
      case may be, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
      to
      state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order
      to
      make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
      are
      made, not misleading, and the Proxy Statement and such other documents filed
      with the SEC by Buyer will comply in all material respects with the provisions
      of the Exchange Act; provided, however that no representation is made by Buyer
      with respect to statements made therein based on information supplied by Target
      for inclusion in such documents.

    

    (ii)
      Proxy
      Statement.
      As soon
      as reasonably as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, Buyer,
      in
      cooperation with Target, shall prepare and file with the SEC the Proxy
      Statement. Buyer, acting through the Buyer Board, shall include in the Proxy
      Statement (or any supplement thereto filed pursuant to this Section 4) the
      unanimous (of those directors that were present) recommendation of the Buyer
      Board that the shareholders of the Buyer vote in favor of this Agreement and
      the
      adoption of this Agreement (the “Buyer Recommendation”). Buyer shall respond to
      any comments of the SEC or its staff and shall cause the Proxy Statement to
      be
      mailed to its shareholders at the earliest practicable time after the resolution
      of any such comments. Buyer shall notify Target promptly upon the receipt of
      any
      comments from the SEC or its staff or any other government officials and of
      any
      request by the SEC or its staff or any other government officials for amendments
      or supplements to the Proxy Statement and shall supply Target with copies of
      all
      correspondence between Buyer or any of its representatives, on the one hand,
      and
      the SEC, or its staff or any other government officials, on the other hand,
      with
      respect to the Proxy Statement. Provided that there shall have been no change
      in
      the Buyer Recommendation, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
      obtain the Requisite Buyer Stockholder Approval. Buyer shall use commercially
      reasonable efforts to cause all documents that Buyer is responsible for filing
      with the SEC or other regulatory authorities under this Section 4 to comply
      in all material respects with all applicable requirements of law and the rules
      and regulations promulgated thereunder. Target shall use commercially reasonable
      efforts to provide, or to cause to be provided, to Buyer for inclusion in the
      Proxy Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto all information
      regarding Target and its Affiliates that may be required by applicable law
      and
      the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder to be so included. Whenever
      any
      event occurs which is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement
      to
      the Proxy Statement, Target or Buyer, as the case may be, shall promptly inform
      the other of such occurrence and cooperate in filing with the SEC or its staff
      or any other government officials, and/or mailing to shareholders of Buyer,
      such
      amendment or supplement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not file
      with the SEC or mail to its shareholders the Proxy Statement, any amendment
      thereto, any other soliciting material or any such other documents without
      providing Target a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such
      documents.

      without limitation, any implied warranties. Buyer hereby disclaims any such
      other or implied representations or warranties, notwithstanding the delivery

      to

provided,
      however,

      together with any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any party in
      enforcing any of its rights set forth in this Agreement, whether pursuant to
      litigation or otherwise.

    

    (ii)
      If
      this Agreement is terminated (i) by Buyer pursuant to Section 7(a) or
      (ii) by Target pursuant to Section 7(a) then concurrently with any such
      termination of this Agreement, the terminating party shall pay to the
      non-terminating party an amount equal to $1,000 (the “Termination
      Fee”).

              

    (iii)
      All
      amounts payable by Buyer or Target, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section

    (iv)
      The
      parties agree that the agreements contained in this Section 7 and the
      payments contemplated thereby are an integral part of the transactions
      contemplated by this Agreement and that such payments represent the damages
      that
      the party receiving the payment will incur if the conditions giving rise to
      such
      payments shall occur and constitute liquidated damages and not a penalty and
      represent the exclusive remedy of the parties in the circumstances contemplated
      by such payment events; provided, however, that the foregoing limitations shall
      not be applicable or have any effect in the case of a termination of this
      Agreement by reason of a willful breach by Target, one the one hand, or Buyer,
      on the other, of a representation or warranty hereunder or a willful failure
      of
      Target, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other, to perform their respective
      obligations under this Agreement, in which event the parties expressly agree
      that the payments contemplated by this Section 7(c)(iv) as the case may be,
      shall not be deemed liquidated damages and shall serve as payments towards,
      and
      not in lieu of, any other damages and legal remedies that may be available
      to,
      or asserted by, Buyer against Target and its Affiliates, or Target against
      Buyer, as the case may be, in such circumstances.

      notify the other of, and will use all commercially reasonable efforts to cure
      before the Closing Date, any event, transaction or circumstance, as soon as
      practical after it becomes known to such party, that causes or will cause any
      covenant or agreement of the parties pursuant to this Agreement to be breached
      or that renders or will render untrue any representation or warranty of the
      parties contained in this Agreement. Each of the parties shall also notify
      the
      other in writing of, and will use all commercially reasonable efforts to cure,
      before the Closing Date, any violation or breach, as soon as practical after
      it
      becomes known to such party, of any representation, warranty, covenant or
      agreement made by the parties. No notice given pursuant to this paragraph shall
      have any effect on the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements
      contained in this Agreement for purposes of determining satisfaction of any
      condition contained herein.

    

    (e)

      of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

      understood and agreed that each of such covenants, agreements, representations
      and warranties is of the essence of this Agreement and the same shall be binding
      upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, its successors and
      assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any representation or warranty
      concerning ERISA, environmental matters, or taxes shall continue in full force
      and effect for the duration of the applicable limitations period.

      and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any
      Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
      Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or law shall
      be
      deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless
      the context otherwise requires. The word including shall mean including without
      limitation.

    

    (k)
      Incorporation
      of Exhibits and Schedules.

      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Parties (and each Affiliate
      and Person action on behalf of any Party) agree that each Party (and each
      employee, representative, and other agent of such Party) may disclose to any
      and
      all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the transaction's tax treatment
      and
      tax structure (as such terms are used in Code 6011 and 6112 and regulations
      thereunder) contemplated by this agreement and all materials of any kind
      (including opinions or other tax analyses) provided to such Party or such Person
      relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, except to the extent necessary
      to comply with any applicable federal or state securities laws; provided,
      however,
      that
      such disclosure may not be made until the earlier of date of (A) public
      announcement of discussions relating to the transaction, (B) public announcement
      of the transaction, or (C) execution of an agreement to enter into the
      transaction. This authorization is not intended to permit disclosure of any
      other information including (without limitation) (A) any portion of any
      materials to the extent not related to the transaction's tax treatment or tax
      structure, (B) the identities of participants or potential participants, (C)
      the
      existence or status of any negotiations, (D) any pricing or financial
      information (except to the extent such pricing or financial information is

      term or detail not relevant to the transaction's tax treatment or the tax
      structure.

    

    (m)
      Enforceability.
      Any term
      or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation
      in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the
      remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity, legality or
      enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or
      in
      any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent
      jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, illegal
      or
      unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination
      shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words
      or
      phrases, or to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision
      with a term or provision that is valid, legal and enforceable and that comes
      closest to expressing the intention of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable
      term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified.
      In
      the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior
      sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid, illegal or
      unenforceable term or provision with a valid, legal and enforceable term or
      provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business
      and
      other purposes of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable term.

    

    (n)
      Further
      Assurances.
      The
      parties agree to execute any and all such other further instruments and
      documents, and to take any and all such further actions which are reasonably
      required to effectuate this Agreement and the intents and purposes
      hereof.

    

    (o)
      Third Party Beneficiaries.
      This
      Agreement and all documents and instruments referred to herein, except as
      otherwise provided herein, are not intended to confer upon any person other
      than
      the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.

      Target shall, if possible, give prior written notice thereof to Buyer and
      provide Buyer with the opportunity to contest such disclosure, or (3) the
      disclosing party reasonably believes that such disclosure is required in
      connection with the defense of a lawsuit against the disclosing party.. In

      Each of
      parties hereto irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any action,
      proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise)
      arising out of or relating to this agreement or the transactions contemplated
      hereby or the actions of Buyer or Target in the negotiation, administration,
      performance and enforcement of this agreement.

    

    (u)
      Director and Officer Liability.

    

    (i)
      Survival
      of Indemnification.
      Buyer
      and Target agree that all rights to indemnification and all limitations on
      liability existing in favor of any Indemnitee as provided in the Articles of
      Incorporation, Bylaws or any Indemnity Agreement involving Buyer or Target
      will
      survive the Merger and continue in full force and effect. To the extent
      permitted by (i) the Nevada Revised Statutes, or (ii) the Surviving
      Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws, advancement of
      Indemnitee Expenses pursuant to this Section 8(v) will be mandatory rather
      than
      permissive and the Surviving Corporation will advance Indemnitee Costs in
      connection with such indemnification. The Surviving Corporation will expressly
      assume and honor in accordance with their terms any agreement providing for
      indemnification of any Indemnitee previously made available for inspection
      by
      Parent in effect on the date of this Agreement (including any indemnity
      provisions contained in any agreement providing for the registration of
      securities) (each, an “Indemnity Agreement”).

    

    (ii)
      Indemnification
      Surviving Corporation.
      In
      addition to the other rights provided for in this Section 8(v) and not in
      limitation thereof, from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation
      will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, (i) indemnify and
      hold
      harmless the individuals who on or prior to the Effective Time were officers,
      directors or employees of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries,
      and the heirs, executors, trustees, fiduciaries and administrators of such
      officers, directors or employees (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) against all
      losses, Indemnitee Expenses (as hereinafter defined), claims, damages,
      liabilities, judgments, or amounts paid in settlement (collectively, “Indemnitee
      Costs”) in respect to any threatened, pending or completed claim, action, suit
      or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative based
      on, or arising out of or relating to the fact that such person is or was a
      director, officer or employee of the Surviving Corporation or any of its
      Subsidiaries and arising out of acts or omissions occurring on or prior to
      the
      Effective Time (including, without limitation, in respect of acts or omissions
      in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby)
      (an
“Indemnifiable Claim”) and (ii) advance to such Indemnitees all Indemnitee
      Expenses incurred in connection with any Indemnifiable Claim promptly after
      receipt of reasonably detailed statements therefor; provided, that, the person
      to whom Indemnitee Expenses are to be advanced would be required to repay such
      advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to
      indemnification from the Surviving Corporation. The Surviving Corporation will
      not be liable for any settlement effected without its written consent (which
      consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Except as otherwise
      may
      be provided pursuant to any Indemnity Agreement, the Indemnitees as a group
      may
      retain only one law firm with respect to each related matter except to the
      extent there is, in the opinion of counsel to an Indemnitee, under applicable
      standards of professional conduct, a conflict on any significant issue between
      positions of any two or more Indemnitees. For the purposes of this Section
      8(v),
“Indemnitee Expenses” will include reasonable attorneys' fees and all other
      costs, charges and expenses paid or incurred in connection with investigating,
      defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or
      preparing to defend, be a witness in or participate in any Indemnifiable
      Claim.

    

    (iii)
      Binding
      Effect on Successors and Assigns.
      Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the obligations of the Surviving
      Corporation in this Section 5.11 will be binding upon the successors and assigns
      of the Surviving Corporation. In the event the Surviving Corporation or any
      of
      its respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any
      other person or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties or
      assets to any person, then, and in each case, proper provision will be made
      so
      that successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be,
      honor the indemnification obligations set forth in this Section
      8(v).

    

    (iv)
      Termination
      or Modification of Indemnification Obligations.
      The
      obligations of the Surviving Corporation under this Section 8(v) will not be
      terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnitee
      to
      whom this Section 8(v) applies without the consent of such affected Indemnitee
      (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnitees to whom this Section 8(v)
      applies will be third party beneficiaries of this Section 8(v)).

    

    (v)
      Advancement
      of Indemnitee Expenses.
      The
      Surviving Corporation will advance all Indemnitee Expenses to any Indemnitee
      incurred by enforcing the indemnity or other obligations provided for in this
      Section 8(v).

    

    (vi)
      Continuation
      of Insurance Policy.
      For a
      period of six years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will
      cause to be maintained in effect the current directors and officers liability
      insurance policies maintained by the Surviving Corporation (provided that
      Surviving Corporation may substitute policies of at least the same coverage
      with
      other terms and conditions that are no less advantageous to the Indemnitee,
      and
      provided further that the annual premiums to be paid with respect to the
      maintenance of such policies during such six year period will not exceed one
      hundred fifty percent (150%) of the annual premium paid by the Surviving
      Corporation for such policies as of the date of this Agreement with respect
      to
      claims arising from facts or events that occurred prior to the Effective
      Time.
