RE:     ADDITIONAL EMPLOYMENT TERMS

Dear James:

This letter will clarify the terms of your employment with FVC.COM, INC. as
Executive Vice President, Product Operations, effective October 2, 2000.

The Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any or no reason,
with or without Cause (as defined herein) or advance notice by giving written
notice of such termination. Similarly, you may terminate your employment with
the Company at any time at your election, in your sole discretion, for any or no
reason upon two (2) weeks notice to the Company during which time you shall
provide reasonable transition assistance to the Company. The Company reserves
the right to ask you to expedite your resignation date and to leave prior to the
end of the two-week notice period. The at-will nature of your employment
relationship may not be modified except by a written agreement between you and
the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

Notwithstanding the above, if the Company terminates your employment without
Cause, then upon your furnishing to the Company an executed release and waiver
of claims (a form of which is attached hereto as EXHIBIT A), you shall be
entitled to receive: (i) severance payments in the form of continuation of your
base salary in effect at the time of your termination, subject to standard
payroll deductions and withholdings, for a period of six (6) months; (ii) bonus
continuation payments totaling your pro-rata share of the Target Bonus in effect
on the date of termination, paid on a monthly basis for six (6) months after the
date of termination; and (iii) your medical benefits paid for by the Company,
assuming that you are eligible for COBRA upon termination, until the earlier of
either (a) six (6) months after the date of termination, or (b) the date that
you become eligible to receive medical benefits with another company or business
entity. If your employment is terminated for Cause, or you voluntarily terminate
your employment from the Company, all compensation and benefits will cease
immediately and you will receive no additional payments from the Company other
than your accrued base salary and accrued and unused vacation benefits earned
through the date of your termination.

For purposes of this letter agreement, "Cause" shall mean (i) gross negligence
or willful misconduct by you, including, but not limited to, dishonesty which
materially and adversely reflects upon your ability to perform your duties for
the Company, (ii) your conviction of, or the entry of a pleading of guilty or
nolo contendere by you to, any crime involving moral turpitude or any felony,
(iii) fraud, embezzlement or theft against the Company, (iv) a material breach
by you of any material provision of any employment contract, assignment of
inventions, confidentiality and/or nondisclosure agreement between you and the
Company, or (v) your willful and habitual failure to attend to your duties as
assigned by the officer of the Company to whom you report if such
non-performance is not cured by you within thirty (30) days after you receive
written notice from the Company.

In the event that you are entitled to the benefits under the Company's Executive
Officer's Change of Control Plan, you will not be entitled to any of the
benefits or payments under this letter agreement.

This letter does not change the terms of your employment as set forth in the
Offer Letter executed by you on September 15, 2000 in any way other than as set
forth above.

This letter agreement, together with your September 15, 2000 Offer Letter and
Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, forms the complete and
exclusive statement of the terms of your employment with the Company and
supersedes any other agreements or promises made to you by anyone, whether oral
or written.

Please sign and date this Agreement, and return it to me on or before October 2,
2000 if you wish to accept employment with the Company under the terms described
above.

We look forward to a productive and enjoyable work relationship.

Sincerely,

        I hereby release, and forever discharge the Company, its officers,
directors, agents, employees, stockholders, successors, assigns affiliates and
Benefit Plans, of and from any and all claims, liabilities, demands, causes of
action, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees, damages, indemnities and obligations
of every kind and nature, in law, equity, or otherwise, known and unknown,
suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising at any time prior

relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law of any
jurisdiction of similar effect with respect to any claims I may have against the
Company.

        I acknowledge that, among other rights, I am waiving and releasing any
rights I may have under ADEA, that this Release and Waiver is knowing and
voluntary, and that the consideration given for this Release and Waiver is in
addition to anything of value to which I was already entitled as an executive of
the Company. I further acknowledge that I have been advised, as required by the
Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, that: (a) the Release and Waiver granted
herein does not relate to claims which may arise after this Release and Waiver
is executed; (b) I have the right to consult with an attorney prior to executing
this Release and Waiver (although I may choose voluntarily not to do so); and if
I am over 40 years of age upon execution of this Release and Waiver: (c) I have
twenty-one (21) days from the date of termination of my employment with the
Company in which to consider this Release and Waiver (although I may choose
voluntarily to execute this Release and Waiver earlier); (d) I have seven (7)
days following the execution of this Release and Waiver to revoke my consent to
this Release and Waiver; and (e) this Release and Waiver shall not be effective
until the seven (7) day revocation period has expired.

Date:                                      By:

                                    AGREEMENT

         WHEREAS, CUseeMe Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the

         NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as
follows:

          1.   The parties agree that each of the Executive Retention Agreement
               and the Offer Letter shall terminate (without any liability or
               obligation to the parties thereof) and shall be of no further

               Retention Agreement, subject in all respects to the terms and
               conditions of such Sections 4.1 and 4.2.

          2.   The parties agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
               contained in the Executive Retention Agreement or the Offer

               contained in the Executive Retention Agreement or the Offer
               Letter, upon termination of each of the Executive Retention
               Agreement and the Offer Letter, except as set forth in paragraph
               1 above, the vesting and exercisability of the Existing Options
               will not accelerate as a result of the Merger (as defined in the

               by which such stock options are evidenced.

          4.   As partial consideration for Executive's agreement to terminate
               the Executive Retention Agreement and the Offer Letter, the
               Company shall, immediately prior to the Effective Time and
               simultaneously with the termination of the Executive Retention

               Stock Option Plan or, if outside such plan, then on terms and
               conditions substantially similar to such plan. The exercise price
               of such option shall be equal to the fair market value of one
               share of Company Common Stock as quoted on The Nasdaq Stock
               Market on the date of execution of the Merger Agreement (or if
               such date is not a trading day, then the trading day immediately
               preceding the date of execution of the Merger Agreement).

          5.   As partial consideration for the Executive's agreement to
               terminate the Executive Retention Agreement and the Offer Letter,

          6.   The Executive and FVC hereby agree to enter into the agreement
               attached hereto as Exhibit A at or prior to the Effective Time,
               with such agreement becoming effective as of immediately after

wrongful termination, breach of the covenant of good faith, contract claims,
tort claims, and wage or benefit claims, including but not limited to, claims
for salary, bonuses, commissions, stock, stock options, vacation pay, fringe
benefits, severance pay or any form of compensation. The only claims excepted
from this Release are the following claims: a) any claims I may have for
benefits under the workers' compensation and unemployment insurance laws; b) my
legal right to continue medical coverage under COBRA; c) my right to vested
benefits under the Company `s 401(k) retirement plan; and d) my right to vested
stock in the Company.

        I also acknowledge that I have read and understand Section 1542 of the
California Civil Code which reads as follows: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND
TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT
THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY
AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR." I hereby expressly waive and
relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law of any
jurisdiction of similar effect with respect to any claims I may have against the
Company.

        I acknowledge that, among other rights, I am waiving and releasing any
rights I may have under ADEA, that this Release and Waiver is knowing and
voluntary, and that the consideration given for this Release and Waiver is in
addition to anything of value to which I was already entitled as an executive of
the Company. I further acknowledge that I have been advised, as required by the
Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, that: (a) the Release and Waiver granted
herein does not relate to claims which may arise after this Release and Waiver
is executed; (b) I have the right to consult with an attorney prior to executing
this Release and Waiver (although I may choose voluntarily not to do so); and if
I am over 40 years of age upon execution of this Release and Waiver: (c) I have
twenty-one (21) days from the date of termination of my employment with the
Company in which to consider this Release and Waiver (although I may choose
voluntarily to execute this Release and Waiver earlier); (d) I have seven (7)
days following the execution of this Release and Waiver to revoke my consent to
this Release and Waiver; and (e) this Release and Waiver shall not be effective
until the seven (7) day revocation period has expired.

Date:                                         By:
