PREMISES    I, WITNESSETH: That Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee
          hires from Lessor, those certain premises, hereinafter in this lease
          designated as "the Premises", with the appurtenances, situated in
          the City of Morgan Hill, County of Santa Clara, State of California,
          and more, particularly described as follows, to-wit:

          building commonly known as 105 Cochrane Circle, Units A, B, C, E, F,
          G, H, I & J with 75 unreserved parking spaces, the location of which,
          within Sutter Business Park, shall be subject to Lessor's
          designation.

USE         2. The Premises shall be used and occupied by Lessee for

          office

          and for no other purpose without the prior written consent of Lessor.

TERM        3, The term shall be for 5.0 years, commencing on the 1st day of
          November, 1994, and ending on the 31st day of October, 1999.

RENTAL      4. Rent shall be payable to the Lessor without deduction or offset
          at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the
          Lessor as follows:

          A. Ten Thousand Five Hundred and Fifty and no/100ths dollars
          ($10,550.00) on execution of this Lease constituting rent for
          November 1994. $10,550.00 will be due on December 1, 1994 and on the
          first day of each succeeding month through and including February 1,
          1995. $16,625.00 will be due March 1, 1995 and on the 1st of each
          succeeding month through October, 1999, subject to the adjustments
          pursuant to Paragraph B below.

          B. Adjustment of rent: The monthly rent (Paragraph A above) payable
          during the second and each succeeding year of the Lease term shall be
          subject to increases as follows: The "Revised-San
          Francisco-Oakland-San Jose Consumer Price Index-All Urban Consumers
          All Items" published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor
          Statistics (the "Index") on the date of execution of the Lease will
          be the "Beginning Index". On each anniversary of said date of
          execution, if the then published Index (the Extension Index") has
          increased over the Beginning Index, the monthly rent for the next
          ensuing year of the Lease term commencing on November 1 shall be set
          by multiplying the monthly rent in Paragraph A by a fraction, the
          numerator of which is the Extension Index and the denominator of
          which is the Beginning Index. In no case shall the monthly rent be
          less than 103% of the previous year's monthly rent or more than 105%
          of the previous monthly rent.

          If the Index changes so that the Extension Index is not properly
          comparable to the Beginning Index, the Index shall be converted or
          modified in the manner the Bureau of Labor Statistics specified will
          make the Index comparable to the Index prevailing at the start of the
          Lease term.

agents, be liable to Lessee for any loss or damage resulting therefrom; but in
that event the commencement and termination dates of the Lease and all other
dates affected thereby shall be revised to conform to the date of Lessor's

Lessee and Lessee's agents. The Lessee shall water, maintain and replace, when
necessary, any shrubbery and landscaping provided by the Lessor on the Premises.

be used, for any purpose other than that for which the said premises are hereby

not acts done, which will cause a cancellation of any insurance policy covering
said building, or any part thereof, nor shall Lessee sell or permit to be kept,
used or sold, in or about said premises, any article which may be prohibited by
the standard form of fire insurance policies. Lessee shall, at his sole cost and

term; and if Lessee shall abandon, vacate or surrender the premises or be

requirements of all Municipal, State and Federal authorities now in force, or
which may hereafter be in force, pertaining to the Premises, and shall

and Federal statutes now in force or which may hereafter be in force. The
judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction, or the admission of Lessee in
any action or proceeding against Lessee, whether Lessor be a party thereto or
not, that Lessee has violated any such ordinance or statute in the use of the
Premises, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Lessor and Lessee.

INDEMNIFICATION OF LESSOR AND LESSEE'S LIABILITY INSURANCE

   15. The Lessee, as a material part of the consideration to be rendered to the
Lessor, hereby waives all claims against the lessor for damages to goods, wares
and merchandise, and all other personal property in, upon, or about the Premises
and for injuries to persons in or about the Premises, from any cause arising at
any time, excepting claims arising from the Lessor's negligence, and the Lessee
will hold the Lessor exempt and harmless from any damage or injury to any
person, or to the goods, wares and merchandise and all other personal property
of any person, arising from the use of the Premises by the Lessee, or from the
failure of the Lessee to keep the Premises in good condition and repair, as
herein provided. The Lessee shall secure and keep in force a bodily injury and
property damage policy covering the Premises, including parking areas, insuring
the Lessee and naming the Lessor as an additional insured. A copy of said policy
shall be delivered to the Lessor and the minimum limits of coverage thereof

damage or injury to the Premises caused thereby, and if not so removed by Lessee
then Lessor may have same so removed at Lessee's expense.

   17. Lessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone
service and all other service supplied to the Premises. If the premises are not
served by a separate water meter, the Lessee shall pay to the Lessor 80% percent
of the water bill for the entire property covered by said bill and of which the
Premises are a part.

ATTORNEY'S FEES

   18. In case suit should be brought for the possession of the Premises, for
the recovery of any sum due hereunder, or because of the breach of any other
covenant herein, the losing party shall pay to the prevailing party a reasonable
attorney's fee, which shall be deemed to have accrued on the commencement of
such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to
judgment.

DEFAULT

   19. In the event of any breach of this Lease by the Lessee, or an abandonment
of the Premises by the Lessee, the Lessor has the option of 1) removing all
persons and property from the Premises and repossessing the Premises in which
case any of the Lessee's property which the Lessor removes from the Premises may
be stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the account
of Lessee, or 2) allowing the Lessee to remain in full possession and control of
the Premises. If the Lessor chooses to repossess the Premises, the Lease will
automatically terminate in accordance with provisions of the California Civil
Code, Section 1951.2. In the event of such termination of the Lease, the Lessor
may recover from the Lessee: 1) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid
rent which had been earned at the time of termination including interest at 7%
per annum; 2) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award
exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could have been
reasonably avoided including interest at 7% per annum; 3) the worth at the time
of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term
after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee
proves could be reasonably avoided; and 4) any other amount necessary to
compensate the Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by the Lessee's
failure to perform his obligations under the Lease or which in the ordinary
course of things would be likely to result therefrom. If the Lessor chooses not
to repossess the premises, but allows the Lessee to remain in full possession
and control of the Premises, then in accordance with provisions of the
California Civil Code, Section 1951.4, the Lessor may treat the Lease as being
in full force and effect, and may collect from the Lessee all rents as they
become due through the termination date of the lease as specified in the lease.
For the purposes of this paragraph, the following do not constitute a
termination of Lessee's right to possession:

a) Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relet the property.

b) The appointment of a receiver on the initiative of the Lessor to protect his
interest under this Lease.

LATE CHARGES

   20. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee to Lessor of rent
and other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated
by this lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to
ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting
charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Lessor by the terms of any
mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of
rent or any other sum due from Lessee shall not be received by Lessor or
Lessor's designee within ten (10) days after such amount shall be due, Lessee
shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of such overdue
amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and
reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of late payment by
Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a
waiver of Lessee's default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent
Lessor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.

SURRENDER OF LEASE

   21. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, or a mutual
cancellation thereof, shall not work a merger, and shall, at the option of
Lessor, terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies, or may, at the
option of Lessor, operate as an assignment to him of any or all such subleases
or subtenancies.

TAX INCREASES

     22.  Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor on demand, as additional rental, any
[Illegible] to the leased premises [Illegible] of the amount of said taxes for
 the fiscal year 93/94. Trustee also agrees to pay the yearly installments of
[Illegible[ levied against the leased premises after the commencement date of
this lease, if said taxes and assessment installments are assessed against the
entire building and buildings [Illegible] and this lease does not cover the
entire building and building site, the taxes and assessment installments
allocated to the leased premises shall be pro-rated on a square footage or
other equitable basis, as calculated by Lessor. It is understood and agreed
that Lessee's obligation under this paragraph will be pro-rated to reflect the
commencement and termination date of this lease. *Including all supplemental
bills.

NOTICES

     23.  All notices to be given to Lessee may be given in writing personally
or by depositing the same in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and
addressed to Lessee at the said Premises, whether or not Lessee has departed
from, abandoned or vacated the Premises.

ENTRY BY LESSOR

     24.  Lessee Shall Permit lessor and his agents to enter into and upon the
premises at all reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same or for
the purpose of maintaining the building in which the Premises are situated, or
for the purpose of making repairs, alterations or additions to any other
portion of said building, including the erection and maintenance of such
scaffolding, canopies, fences and props as may be required without any rebate
of rent and without any liability to Lessee for any loss of occupation or
quiet enjoyment of the Premises thereby occasioned; and shall permit Lessor and
his agents, at any time within ninety days prior to the expiration of this
Lease, to Place upon the Premises any usual or ordinary "For Sale" or "To
Lease" signs and exhibits the Premises to prospective tenants at reasonable
hours.

DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES

     25. In the event of a partial destruction of the Premises during the said
term from any cause, Lessor shall forthwith repair the same, provided such
repairs can be made within ninety (90) days under the laws and regulations of
State, Federal, County or Municipal authorities, but such partial destruction
shall in no way annul or void this Lease, except that Lessee shall be entitled
to a proportionate reduction of rent while such repairs are being made, such
proportionate reduction to be based upon the extent to which the making of such
repairs shall interfere with the business carried on by Lessee in the Premises.
If such repairs cannot be made in ninety (90) days. Lessor may at his option,
make same within a reasonable time, this Lease continuing in full force and
effect and the rent to be proportionately reduced as aforesaid in this
paragraph provided. In the event that Lessor does not so elect to make such
repairs which cannot be made in ninety (90) days, or such repairs cannot be
made under such laws and regulations, this Lease may be terminated at the
option of either party. In respect to any partial destruction which Lessor is
obligated to repair or may elect to repair under the terms of this paragraph,
the provision of Section 1932, Subdivision 2, and of Section 1933, Subdivision
4, of the Civil Code of the State of California are waived by Lessee. In the
event that the building in which the Premises may be situated be destroyed to
the extent of not less than 33 1/3% of the replacement cost thereof, Lessor may
elect to terminate this Lease, whether the Premises be injured or not. A total
destruction of the building in which the Premises may be situated shall
terminate this Lease. In the event of any dispute between Lessor and Lessee
relative to the provisions of this paragraph, they shall each select an
arbitrator, the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator
and the three arbitrators so selected shall hear and determine the controversy
and their decision thereon shall be final and binding upon both Lessor and
Lessee, who shall bear the cost of such arbitration equally between them.

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

     26.  The Lessee shall not assign, transfer, or hypothecate the leasehold
estate under this Lease, or any interest therein, and shall not sublet the
Premises, or any part thereof, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto,
or suffer any other person or entity to occupy or use the Premises, or any
portion thereof, without, in each case, the prior written consent of the
Lessor. As a condition for granting its consent to any subletting the Lessor
may require the Lessee to agree to pay to the Lessor, as additional rental, all
rents received by the Lessee from its Sublessee which are in excess of the
amount payable by the Lessee to the Lessor hereunder. The Lessee shall, by one
hundred twenty (120) days written notice, advice the Lessor of its intent to
sublet the Premises or any portion thereof for any part of the term hereof.
Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Lessee's notice. Lessor shall either
give approval to Lessee to sublease the portion of the Premises described in
Lessee's notice, or Lessor shall terminate this Lease as to the portion of the
Premises described in Lessee's notice on the date specified in Lessee's
notice. If Lessee intends to sublet the entire Premises and Lessor elects to
terminate this ease, this Lease shall be terminated on the date specified in
Lessee's notice. If, however, this Lease shall terminate pursuant to the
foregoing with respect to less than all the Premises, the rent, as defined and
reserved hereinabove shall be adjusted on a prorate basis to the number of
square feet retained by Lessee, and this Lease as so amended shall continue in
full force and effect. In the event Lessee is allowed to assign, transfer or
sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, with the prior written consent of
Lessor, no assignee, transferee or sublessee shall assign or transfer this
Lease, either in whole or in part, or sublet the whole or any part of the
Premises, without also having obtained the prior written consent of the Lessor.
A consent of Lessor to one assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting,
occupation or use by any other person shall not release Lessee from any of
Lessee's obligations hereunder or be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent
similar or dissimilar assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting,
occupation or use by any other person. Any such assignment, transfer,
hypothecation, subletting, occupation or use without such consent shall be void
and shall constitute a breach of this Lease by Lessee and shall, at the option
of Lessor exercised by written notice to Lessee, terminate this Lease. The
leasehold estate under this Lease shall not, nor shall any interest therein, be
assignable for any purpose by operation of law without the written consent of
Lessor. As a condition to its consent, Lessor may require Lessee to pay all
expense in connection with the assignment, and Lessor may require Lessee's
assignee or transferee (or other assignees or transferees) to assume in writing
all of the obligations under this Lese.  *Lessor agrees not to unreasonably
withhold consent to sublet or assign.

CONDEMNATION

     27.  If any part of the premises shall be taken for any public or
quasi-public use, under any statute or by right of eminent domain or private
purchase in lieu thereof, and a part thereof remains which is susceptible of
occupation hereunder, this Lease shall, as to the part to taken, terminate as of
the date title shall vest in the condemnor or purchaser, and the rent payable
hereunder shall be adjusted so that the Lessee shall be required to pay for the
remainder of the term only such portion of such rent as the value of the part
remaining after such taking bears to the value of the entire Premises prior to
such taking; but in such event Lessor shall have the option to terminate this
Lease as of the date when title to the part so taken vests in the condemnor or
purchaser. If all of the premises, or such part thereof be taken so that there
does not remain a portion susceptible for occupation hereunder, this Lease shall
thereupon terminate. If a part of all of the Premises be taken, all compensation
awarded upon such taking shall go to the Lessor and the Lessee shall have no
claim thereto.

EFFECT OF CONVEYANCE

     28.  The term "Lessor" as used in this Lease, means only the owner for the
time being of the land and building containing the Premises and that, in the
event of any sale of said land or building, or in the event of a lease of said
building, the Lessor shall, and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all
covenants and obligations of the Lessor hereunder, and it shall be deemed and
construed, without further agreement between the parties and the purchaser at
any such sale, or the Lessee of the building, that the purchaser or lessee of
the building has assumed and agreed to carry out any and all covenants and
obligations of the Lessor hereunder. If any security be given by the Lessee to
secure the faithful performance of all or any of the covenants of this Lease on
the part of the Lessee, the Lessor may transfer and deliver the security, as
such, to the purchaser at any such sale or the lessee of the building, and
thereupon the Lessor shall be discharged from any further liability in reference
thereto.

SUBORDINATION

     29.  Lessee agrees that this Lease may at the option of Lessor, be subject
and subordinate to any mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument of security
which has been or shall be placed on the land and building or land or building
of which the Premises form a part, and this subordination is hereby made
effective without any further act of Lessee. The Lessee shall, at any time
hereinafter, on demand, execute any instruments, releases, or other documents
that may be required by any mortgagee, mortgagor, or trustor or beneficiary
under any deed of trust for the purpose of subjecting and subordinating this
Lease to the lien of any such mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument of
security, and the failure of the Lessee to execute any such instruments,
releases or documents, shall constitute a default hereunder.

WAIVER

     30.  The waiver by Lessor of any breach of any term, covenant or
condition, herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term,
covenant or condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term,
covenant or condition therein contained. The subsequent acceptance of rent
hereunder by Lessor shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach
by Lessee of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the
failure of Lessee to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of
Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such
rent.

HOLDING OVER

                               AMENDMENT OF LEASE

This Amendment of Lease dated May 12, 1995, by and between THOITS BROS., INC. a
California corporation ("Lessor") and CIDCO, a Delaware corporation, Lessee, is
made with reference to the following facts:

Under the Lease dated August 16, 1994 by and between Lessor and Lessee
("Lease"), Lessee leased from Lessor 17,500 square feet of the 23,500 square
foot building commonly known and numbered as 105 Cochrane Circle, units A, B,
C, E, F, G, H, I, & J, Morgan Hill, California ("The Property").

Lessee now wishes to have the option to extend the lease sixty (60) months.

Lessor and Lessee intend to and hereby amend the Lease to grant the Lessee the
option to extend the lease term and evidence their agreement as follows:

The Lessor hereby grants to the Lessee the option of renewing this lease for an
additional five (5) year term, to commence at the termination of this lease.
The option term shall be governed by all of the same terms and conditions as
are contained in this lease excepting that there is to be no additional option
and also excepting the base monthly rental, which is to be adjusted for the
option term according to the following formula: The base monthly rental for
each month of the option term shall bear the same relationship to $16,625.00 as
the Consumer Price Index published by the U.S. Department of Labor for the San
Francisco-Oakland Area (1967=100) All Items, Urban Consumers for the month for
which that index is available most immediately preceding October, 1999, bears
to the same index for June 1994. In no event, however, shall the adjusted base
monthly rental be less than the base monthly rental due October, 1999 without
the consent of the Lessor. In order to exercise this option, Lessee must give
to Lessor written notice of it's intent to do so a minimum of One Hundred
Twenty (120) days prior to the termination of this lease. This option shall be
null and void, at the option of the Lessor, if the Lessee is in default under
any of the terms or conditions of this lease at the time this option is
exercised, and this option is personal to CIDCO and cannot be assigned or
transferred.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, THE parties execute this Amendment as of May 12, 1995.

                               AMENDMENT OF LEASE

This Amendment of Lease dated May 12, 1995, by and between THOITS BROS., INC. a
California corporation ("Lessor") and CIDCO, a Delaware corporation, Lessee, is
made with reference to the following facts:

Under the Lease dated May 31, 1994 by and between Lessor and Lessee ("Lease"),
Lessee leased from Lessor 9,400 square feet of the 13,125 square foot building
commonly known and numbered as 225 Cochrane Circle, units A, B, C, D, & E,
Morgan Hill, California ("The Property").

Lessee now wishes to have the option to extend the lease sixty (60) months.

Lessor and Lessee intend to and hereby amend the Lease to grant the Lessee the
option to extend the lease term and evidence their agreement as follows:

The Lessor hereby grants to the Lessee the option of renewing this lease for an
additional five (5) year term, to commence at the termination of this lease. The
option term shall be governed by all of the same terms and conditions as are
contained in this lease excepting that there is to be no additional option and
also excepting the base monthly rental, which is to be adjusted for the option
term according to the following formula. The base monthly rental for each month
of the option term shall bear the same relationship to $8,400.00 as the Consumer
Price Index published by the U.S. Department of Labor for the San
Francisco-Oakland Area (1967=100) All Items, Urban Consumers for the month for
which that index is available most immediately preceding January, 1999, bears to
the same index for July 1994. In no event, however, shall the adjusted base
monthly rental be less than the base monthly rental due January, 1999 without
the consent of the Lessor. In order to exercise this option, Lessee must give to
Lessor written notice of it's intent to do so a minimum of One Hundred Twenty
(120) days prior to the termination of this lease. This option shall be null and
void, at the option of the Lessor, if the Lessee is in default under any of the
terms or conditions of this lease at the time this option is exercised, and this
option is personal to CIDCO and cannot be assigned or transferred.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, THE parties execute this Amendment as of May 12, 1995.

under the Plan is 100,000 Shares (the "Pool"). The Shares may be authorized,
but unissued, or reacquired Common Stock.

          If an Option should expire or become unexercisable for any reason
without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased Shares which were subject
thereto shall, unless the Plan shall have been terminated, become available for
future grant under the Plan. If Shares which were acquired upon exercise of an
Option are subsequently repurchased by the Company, such Shares shall not in any
event be returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future grant
under the Plan.

     4.   Administration of and Grants of Options under the Plan.

          (a) Administrator. Except as otherwise required herein, the Plan
shall be administered by the Board.

          (b) Powers of the Board. Subject to the provisions and restrictions
of the Plan, the Board (with any interested director being excluded from
participating in the consideration of the grant of options to such interested

8(b) of the Plan, the fair market value of the Common Stock; (iii) to determine
the exercise price per share of Options to be granted, which exercise price

                                      -2-

<PAGE>   3

interpret the Plan; (vi) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations
relating to the Plan; (vii) to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the
Company any instrument required to effectuate the grant of an Option previously
granted hereunder; and (viii) to make all other determinations deemed necessary
or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

          (c)  Effect of Board's Decision. All decisions, determinations and
interpretations of the Board shall be final and binding on all Optionees and
any other holders of any Options granted under the Plan.

          (d)  Suspension or Termination of Option. If the President of the
Company (the "President") or his or her designee reasonably believes that an
Optionee has committed an act of misconduct, the President may suspend the
Optionee's right to exercise any option pending a determination by the Board of
Directors (excluding, if relevant, the Outside Director accused of such
misconduct). If the Board of Directors (excluding, if relevant, the Outside
Director accused of such misconduct) determines an Optionee has committed an
act of embezzlement, fraud, dishonesty, nonpayment of an obligation owed to the
Company, breach of fiduciary duty or deliberate disregard of Company rules
resulting in loss, damage or injury to the Company, or if an Optionee makes an
unauthorized disclosure of any Company trade secret or confidential
information, engages in any conduct constituting unfair competition, induces
any Company customer to breach a contract with the Company or induces any
principal for whom the Company acts as agent to terminate such agency
relationship, neither the Optionee nor his or her estate shall be entitled to
exercise any option whatsoever. In making such determination, the Board of
Directors (excluding, if relevant, the Outside Director accused of such
misconduct) shall act fairly and shall give the Optionee an opportunity to
appear and present evidence on Optionee's behalf at a hearing before the Board
or a committee of the Board.

     5.   Eligibility. Options may be granted only to Outside Directors. An
Outside Director who has been granted an Option may, if he or she is otherwise
eligible, thereafter be granted an additional Option or Options in accordance
with the Plan.

          The Plan shall not confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to
continuation of service as a Director or nomination to serve as a Director, nor
shall it interfere in any way with any rights which the Director or the Company
may have to terminate his or her directorship at any time.

     6.   The Term of Plan; Effective Date. The Plan shall become effective on
the Effective Date and shall continue in

                                      -3-
<PAGE>   4
effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated under Section 13
of the Plan, subject to the limitations set forth in the Plan.

     7.   Term of Option. The term of each Option shall be five years from the
date of grant thereof.

     8.   Exercise Price and Consideration.

          (a)  Exercise Price. The per Share exercise price for the Shares to
be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be 100% of the fair market
value per Share on the date of grant of the Option.

          (b)  Fair Market Value. The fair market value per Share shall be the
mean of the bid and asked prices of the Common Stock in the over-the-counter
market on the date of grant, as reported in The Wall Street Journal (or, if not
so reported, as otherwise reported by the National Association of Securities
Dealers Automated Quotation ("NASDAQ") System) or, in the event that the Common
Stock is traded on the NASDAQ National Market System or listed on a stock
exchange, the fair market value per Share shall be the closing price on the
largest such system or exchange on the date of grant of the Option, as reported
in The Wall Street Journal, provided, however, that if such market or exchange
is closed on the date of the grant of the Option then the fair market value per
Share shall be based on the most recent date on which such trading occurred
immediately prior to the date of the grant of the Option; provided, further,
that if the fair market value cannot be determined in accordance with the
forgoing, it shall be determined in good faith by the Board.

          (c)  Form of Consideration. Options granted under the Plan may
provide for the payment of the exercise price by delivery of (i) cash or a
check payable to the order of the Company in an amount equal to the exercise
price of such options, (ii) a promissory note in an amount equal to the
exercise price of such options, (iii) shares of Common Stock of the Company
owned by the optionee having a fair market value equal in amount to the
exercise price of the options being exercised, or (iv) any combination of (i),
(ii) and (iii), provided, however, that payment of the exercise price by
delivery of a promissory note or shares of Common Stock of the Company owned by
such optionee may be made only under such circumstances, if any, and on such
terms as may from time to time be established by the Board. The fair market
value of any shares of the Company's Common Stock which may be delivered upon
exercise of an option shall be determined by the Board in accordance with
Section 8(b) hereof.

                                      -4-

<PAGE>   5
     9.   Exercise of Option.

          (a)  Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder. Any Option
granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times as are determined by the
Board at the time of grant and set forth in an option agreement as contemplated
by Section 16 hereof.

          An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

          An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such
exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the
Option by the person entitled to exercise the Option and full payment for the
Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised has been received by the
Company. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment
allowable under Section 8(c) of the Plan. Until the issuance (as evidenced by
the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized
transfer agent of the Company) of the stock certificate evidencing such Shares,
no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder
shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of
the Option. A share certificate for the number of Shares so acquired shall be
issued to the Optionee as soon as practicable after exercise of the Option. No
adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date
is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in
Section 11 of the Plan.

          Exercise of an Option in any manner shall result in a decrease in the
number of Shares which thereafter may be available, both for purposes of the
Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the
Option is exercised.

          (b)  Termination of Status as a Director. If an outside Director
ceases to serve as a Director, he or she may, but only within 30 days (or such
other period of time not exceeding six (6) months as is determined by the
Board) after the date he or she ceases to be a Director of the Company,
exercise his or her Option to the extent that he or she was entitled to
exercise it at the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
no event may the Option be exercised after its term set forth in Section 7 has
expired. To the extent that such Outside Director was not entitled to exercise
an Option at the date of such termination, or does not exercise such Option
(which he or she was entitled to exercise) within the time specified herein,
the Option shall terminate unless otherwise provided in this Section 9(b).

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, following a Hostile
Change of Control (as defined herein), an

                                      -5-

<PAGE>   6
Outside Director optionee is removed as a Director prior to the completion of
his then current term, all outstanding options held by such Outside Director
shall be subject to immediate acceleration, and any shares which are not vested
at the time of such removal shall immediately vest in full and he or she may
exercise his or her option within six (6) months after the date he or she
ceases to be a Director of the Company.

          (c)  Disability of Optionee. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 9(b) above, in the event a Director is unable to continue his or her
service as a Director with the Company as a result of his or her total and
permanent disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), he or she
may, but only within six (6) months (or such lesser period of time as is
determined by the Board) from the date of such termination, exercise his or
her Option to the extent he or she was entitled to exercise it at the date of
such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may the Option be
exercised after its term set forth in Section 7 has expired. To the extent that
he or she was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date of termination,
or if he or she does not exercise such Option (which he or she was entitled to
exercise) within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

          (d)  Death of Optionee. In the event of the death of an Optionee:

               (i)  during the term of the Option who is, at the time of his or
her death, a Director of the Company and who shall have been in Continuous
Status as a Director since the date of grant of the Option, the Option may be
exercised, at any time within six (6) months (or such lesser period of time as
is determined by the Board) following the date of death, by the Optionee's
estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest
or inheritance, but only to the extent of the right to exercise that would have
accrued had the Optionee continued living and remained in Continuous Status as
a Director for six 6) months (or such lesser period of time as is determined by
the Board) after the date of death. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event
may the Option be exercised after its term set forth in Section 7 has expired.

               (ii) within 30 days after the termination of Continuous Status
as a Director, the Option may be exercised, at any time within six (6) months
(or such lesser period of time as is determined by the Board) following the
date of death, by the Optionee's estate or by a person who acquired the right
to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent of the
right to exercise that had accrued at the date of termination. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event may the option be exercised after its term set forth
in Section 7 has expired.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>   7

     10.  Nontransferability of Options. The Option may not be sold, pledged,
assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by
will or by the laws of descent or distribution. The designation of a
beneficiary by an Optionee does not constitute a transfer. An Option may be
exercised during the lifetime of an Optionee only by the Optionee or a
transferee permitted by this Section.

     11.  Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization or Merger. Subject to any
required action the shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common
Stock covered by each outstanding Option, and the number of shares of Common
Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no
Options have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon
cancellation or expiration of any Option, as well as the price per share of
Common Stock covered by each such outstanding Option, shall be proportionately
adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common
Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend,
combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or
decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without
receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of
any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been
"effected without receipt of consideration." Such adjustment shall be made by
the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and
conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of
shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of
any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with
respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option.

          In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the
Company, the Option will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of
such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Board. The Board may, in
the exercise of its sole discretion in such instances, declare that any Option
shall terminate as of a date fixed by the Board and give each Optionee the
right to exercise his or her Option as to all or any part of the Optioned
Stock, included Shares as to which the Option would not otherwise be
exercisable. In the event of a proposed sale or conveyance of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the merger or consolidation
of the Company with or into another corporation, each outstanding Option shall
be assumed or an equivalent option shall be substituted by the successor
corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the
event that such successor corporation refuses to assume such Option or to
substitute an equivalent option, such Option may, at the discretion of the
Board, accelerate in full upon the consummation of the merger or sale of
assets. The Board shall also have the power and right, but not

the obligation, to accelerate the exercisability of any options, notwithstanding
any limitations in this Plan upon a Change in Control (as defined herein). In
the event of a hostile change in control of the Company (a "Hostile Change in
Control"), whether by tender offer for more than 50% of the outstanding voting
stock, proxy contest for the election of Board members or other means lacking
the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company, each outstanding option
under this Plan shall automatically accelerate in full and unvested shares shall
vest in full immediately. For purposes of this Plan, a "Change in Control" shall
be deemed to have occurred if any person, or any two or more persons acting as a
group, and all affiliates of such person or persons, who prior to such time
owned less than fifty percent (50%) of the then outstanding Common Stock of the
Company, shall acquire such additional shares of the Company's Common Stock in
one or more transactions, or series of transactions, such that following such
transaction or transactions, such person or group and affiliates beneficially
own more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company's Common Stock outstanding.

     12.  Time of Granting Options. The date of grant of an Option shall, for
all purposes, be the date when the Board approves the grant of such Options.
Notice of the grant of an Option shall be given to each Outside Director to
whom an Option is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such
grant.

     13.  Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

          (a)  Amendment and Termination. The Board may amend or terminate the
Plan from time to time in such respects as the Board may deem advisable;
provided that, to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Rule 16b-3
under the Exchange Act (or any other applicable law or regulation), the Company
shall obtain approval of the shareholders of the Company to Plan amendments to
the extent and in the manner required by such law or regulation.

          (b)  Effect of Amendment or Termination. Any such amendment or
termination of the Plan that would impair the rights of any Optionee shall not
affect Options already granted to such Optionee and such Options shall remain
in full force and effect as if this Plan had not been amended or terminated,
unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Optionee and the Board, which
agreement must be in writing and signed by the Optionee and the Company.

     14.  Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Shares shall not be issued
pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option and the
issuance and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all
relevant provisions

                                      -8-

of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state
securities laws, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the
Shares may then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of
counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

          As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Company may require
the person exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the time of any
such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and
without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares, if, in the
opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of
the aforementioned relevant provisions of law.

          Inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body
having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company's counsel to be
necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve
the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such
Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

     15.  Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, will
at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be
sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

     16.  Option Agreement. Options shall be evidenced by written option
agreements in such form as the Board shall approve.

     17.  Information to Optionees. The Company shall provide to each Optionee,
during the period for which such Optionee has one or more Options outstanding,
copies of all annual reports to shareholders, proxy statements and other
information provided to all shareholders of the Company.
