              INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

ITEM 3.     INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.

               Digital Insight Corporation (the "Company" or "Registrant")
hereby incorporates by reference in this Registration Statement the contents of
the Company's earlier Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File #333-90053). In
addition, there are hereby incorporated by reference into this Registration
Statement the following documents and information heretofore filed by the
Registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"):

     (a)    The Registrant's Prospectus dated September 30, 1999 as filed by the
Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act").

     (b)    The description of Registrant's Common Stock contained in the
Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed on September 27, 1999
pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, including any amendment or report
filed for the purpose of updating such description.

     (c)    The Registrant's Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 1999
as filed on November 12, 1999 pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act.

     (d)    The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-4 as filed January
10, 2000 pursuant to the Securities Act.

     (e)    The Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the
Commission on November 24, 1999.


All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a),
13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective
amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which
deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be part hereof
from the date of filing of such documents.

ITEM 4.     DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

            Inapplicable.

ITEM 5.     INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

            Inapplicable.

ITEM 6.     INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

            The Company's Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of
directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law.  Section 145 of the
Delaware General Corporation law authorizes a court to award, or a corporation's
Board of Directors to grant, indemnification to directors and officers in terms
sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances
for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under
the Securities Act of 1933.  The Company's Bylaws provide for the mandatory
indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and other agents to the

                                      II-1
<PAGE>

maximum extent permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law, and the Company
has entered into agreements with its officers, directors and certain key
employees implementing such indemnification.

ITEM 7.   EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

          Inapplicable.

ITEM 9    UNDERTAKINGS

          A.   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

               (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to include
any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement.

               (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

               (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

          B.   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of
the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          C.   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Company pursuant to the Delaware General

                                      II-2
<PAGE>

Corporation Law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, the Bylaws of
the Company, indemnification agreements entered into between the Company and its
officers and directors or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company in successful defense of
any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder,
the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

date of such approval automatically shall be granted subject to such approval.

                                  Section 5.
                                Administration

circumstances.  The Board's actions shall be binding on the Company, on each
affected Employee or Key Person, and on each other person directly or indirectly
affected by such actions.

     The Board may delegate its authority under the Plan, in whole or in part,
to a Committee appointed by the Board consisting of not less than two (2)
directors The Committee (if appointed) shall act according to the policies and
procedures set forth in the Plan and to those policies and procedures
established by the Board, and the Committee shall have such powers and
responsibilities as are set forth by the Board. Reference to the Board in this

                                  Section 6.
                                  Eligibility

granted a Stock Incentive under this Plan merely as a result of his or her
status as an Employee.  Key Persons may be eligible, subject to written approval
by the Board, for the grant of Stock Incentives under this Plan, but only if the
Key Person has provided valuable services to the Company, a Subsidiary or a
Parent, and only if the Stock Incentive is not an ISO.

                                  Section 7.
                           Terms Of Stock Incentives
     7.1  Terms and Conditions of All Stock Incentives.

          (a)  The Committee, in its absolute discretion, shall grant Stock
Incentives under this Plan from time to time and shall have the right to grant
new Stock Incentives in exchange for outstanding Stock Incentives. Stock
Incentives shall be granted to Employees or Key Persons selected by the
Committee, and the Committee shall be under no obligation whatsoever to grant
Stock Incentives to all Employees or Key Persons, or to grant all Stock
Incentives subject to the same terms and conditions. Each grant of a Stock
Incentive shall be evidenced by a Stock Incentive Agreement:

                                       3
<PAGE>

          (b)  The number of Shares as to which a Stock Incentive shall be
granted shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, subject to
the provisions of Section 3 as to the total number of shares available for
grants under the Plan.

          (c)  Each Stock Incentive shall be evidenced by a Stock Incentive
Agreement executed by the Company and the Participant, which shall be in such
form and contain such terms and conditions as the Committee in its discretion
may, subject to the provisions of the Plan, from time to time determine.

          (d)  The date a Stock Incentive is granted shall be the date on which
the Committee has approved the terms and conditions of the Stock Incentive
Agreement and has determined the recipient of the Stock Incentive and the number
of Shares covered by the Stock Incentive and has taken all such other action
necessary to complete the grant of the Stock Incentive.

     7.2  Terms and Conditions of Options.  Each grant of an Option shall be
evidenced by a Stock Incentive Agreement which shall:

          (I)  specify whether the Option is an ISO or Non-ISO; and

          (II) incorporate such other terms and conditions as the Committee,
acting in its absolute discretion, deems consistent with the terms of this Plan,
including (without limitation) a restriction on the number of Shares subject to
the Option which first become exercisable or subject to surrender during any
calendar year.

          In determining Employee(s) or Key Person(s) to whom an Option shall be
granted and the number of Shares to be covered by such Option, the Committee may
take into account the recommendations of the President of the Company and its
other officers, the duties of the Employee or Key Person, the present and
potential contributions of the Employee or Key Person to the success of the
Company, the anticipated number of years of service remaining before the
attainment by the Employee of retirement age, and other factors deemed relevant
by the Committee, in its sole discretion, in connection with accomplishing the
purpose of this Plan.  An Employee or Key Person who has been granted an Option
to purchase Shares, whether under this Plan or otherwise, may be granted one or
more additional Options.

          If the Committee grants an ISO and a Non-ISO to an Employee on the
same date, the right of the Employee to exercise or surrender one such Option
shall not be conditioned on his or her failure to exercise or surrender the
other such Option.

          (a)  Exercise Price.  Subject to adjustment in accordance with
               --------------
Section 11 and the other provisions of this Section, the Exercise Price shall be
as set forth in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement. With respect to each
grant of an ISO to a Participant who is not a Ten Percent Shareholder, the
Exercise Price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value on the date the ISO
is granted. With respect to each grant of an ISO to a Participant who is a Ten
Percent Shareholder, a Ten Percent Shareholder shall not be less than one
hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value on the date the ISO is
granted. If a Stock Incentive is a Non-ISO, the Exercise Price for each Share
shall be no less than the minimum price required by applicable state law, or by
the Company's governing instrument, or $0.01, whichever price is greater.

          (b)  Option Term.  Each Option granted under this Plan shall be
               -----------
exercisable in whole or in part at such time or times as set forth in the
related Stock Incentive Agreement, but no Stock Incentive Agreement shall:

                                       4
<PAGE>

               (i)  make an Option exercisable before the date such Option is
granted; or

               (ii) make an Option exercisable after the earlier of the:

                    (A)  the date such Option is exercised in full, or

                    (B)  the date which is the tenth (10th) anniversary of the
date such Option is granted, if such Option is a Non-ISO or an ISO granted to a
non-Ten Percent Shareholder, or the date which is the fifth (5th) anniversary of
the date such Option is granted, if such Option is an ISO granted to a Ten
Percent Shareholder.

          A Stock Incentive Agreement may provide for the exercise of an Option
after the employment of an Employee has terminated for any reason whatsoever,
including death or disability.

          (c)  Payment.  Payment for all shares of Stock purchased pursuant to
               -------
exercise of an Option shall be made in cash or, if the Stock Incentive Agreement
provides, by delivery to the Company of a number of Shares which have been owned
by the holder for at least six (6) months prior to the date of exercise having
an aggregate Fair Market Value of not less than the product of the Exercise
Price multiplied by the number of Shares the Participant intends to purchase
upon exercise of the Option on the date of delivery. In addition, the Stock
Incentive Agreement may provide for cashless exercise through a brokerage
transaction following registration of the Company's equity securities under
Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Except as provided in
subparagraph (f) below, payment shall be made at the time that the Option or any
part thereof is exercised, and no Shares shall be issued or delivered upon
exercise of an Option until full payment has been made by the Participant. The
holder of an Option, as such, shall have none of the rights of a stockholder.

          Notwithstanding the above, and in the sole discretion of the
Committee, an Option may be exercised as to a portion or all (as determined by
the Committee) of the number of Shares specified in the Stock Incentive
Agreement by delivery to the Company of a promissory note, such promissory note
to be executed by the Participant and which shall include, with such other terms
and conditions as the Committee shall determine, provisions in a form approved
by the Committee under which: (i) the balance of the aggregate purchase price
shall be payable in equal installments over such period and shall bear interest
at such rate (which shall not be less than the prime bank loan rate as
determined by the Committee) as the Committee shall approve, and (ii) the
Participant shall be personally liable for payment of the unpaid principal
balance and all accrued but unpaid interest.

          (d)  Conditions to Exercise of an Option.  Each Option granted under
               -----------------------------------
the Plan shall be exercisable at such time or times, or upon the occurrence of
such event or events, and in such amounts, as the Committee shall specify in the
Stock Incentive Agreement; provided, however, that subsequent to the grant of an
Option, the Committee, at any time before complete termination of such Option,
may accelerate the time or times at which such Option may be exercised in whole
or in part.

          (e)  Special Provisions for Certain Substitute Options.
               -------------------------------------------------
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, any Option in
substitution for a stock option previously issued by another entity, which
substitution occurs in connection with a transaction to which Code Section
424(a) is applicable, may provide for an exercise price computed in accordance
with such Code Section and the regulations thereunder and may contain such other
terms and conditions as the Committee may prescribe to cause such substitute
Option to contain as nearly as possible the same terms and conditions (including
the applicable vesting and termination provisions) as those contained in the
previously issued stock option being replaced thereby.

                                       5
<PAGE>

     7.3  Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock
Appreciation Right may be granted in connection with all or any portion of a
previously or contemporaneously granted Option or not in connection with an
Option. A Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle the Participant to receive upon
exercise or payment the excess of: (I) the Fair Market Value of a specified
number of Shares at the time of exercise, over (II) a specified price which
shall be not less than the Exercise Price for that number of Shares in the case
of a Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with a previously or
contemporaneously granted Option, or in the case of any other Stock Appreciation
Right not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of that
number of Shares at the time the Stock Appreciation Right was granted. A Stock
Appreciation Right granted in connection with an Option may only be exercised to
the extent that the related Option has not been exercised. The exercise of a
Stock Appreciation Right shall result in a pro rata surrender of the related
Option to the extent the Stock Appreciation Right has been exercised.

          (a)  Payment.  Upon exercise or payment of a Stock Appreciation Right,
               -------
the Company shall pay to the Participant the appreciation in cash or Shares (at
the aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of payment or exercise) as provided
in the Stock Incentive Agreement or, in the absence of such provision, as the
Committee may determine.

          (b)  Conditions to Exercise.  Each Stock Appreciation Right granted
               ----------------------
under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time or times, or upon the
occurrence of such event or events, and in such amounts, as the Committee shall
specify in the Stock Incentive Agreement; provided, however, that subsequent to
the grant of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Committee, at any time before
complete termination of such Stock Appreciation Right, may accelerate the time
or times at which such Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised in whole or in
part.

          (c)  Nontransferability of Stock Appreciation Right.  A Stock
               ----------------------------------------------
Appreciation Right shall not be transferable or assignable except by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable, during the
Participant's lifetime, only by the Participant, or in the event of the
disability of the Participant, by the legal representative of the Participant.

     7.4  Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Awards. Shares awarded
pursuant to Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to restrictions for periods
determined by the Committee. The Committee shall have the power to permit, in
its discretion, an acceleration of the expiration of the applicable restriction
period with respect to any part or all of the Shares awarded to a Participant.
The Committee may require a cash payment from the Participant in an amount no
greater than the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares awarded determined at
the date of grant in exchange for the grant of a Restricted Stock Award or may
grant a Restricted Stock Award without the requirement of a cash payment.

                                  Section 8.
                             Surrender Of Options

     8.1  General Rule.  The Committee, acting in its absolute discretion, may
incorporate a provision in a Stock Incentive Agreement to allow an Employee or
Key Person to surrender his or Option in whole or in part in lieu of the
exercise in whole or in part of that Option on any date that:

          (a)  the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Option
exceeds Exercise Price for such Shares, and

          (b)  the Option to purchase such Shares is otherwise exercisable.

                                       6
<PAGE>

     8.2  Procedure.  The surrender of an Option in whole or in part shall be
effected by the delivery of the Stock Incentive Agreement to the Committee,
together with a statement signed by the Participant which specifies the number
of Shares ("Surrendered Shares") as to which the Participant surrenders his or
her Option and how he or she desires payment be made for such Surrendered
Shares.

     8.3  Payment. A Participant in exchange for his or her Surrendered Shares
shall receive a payment in cash or in Shares, or in a combination of cash and
Shares, equal in amount on the date such surrender is effected to the excess of
the Fair Market Value of the Surrendered Shares on such date over the Exercise
Price for the Surrendered Shares. The Committee, acting in its absolute
discretion, can approve or disapprove a Participant's request for payment in
whole or in part in cash and can make that payment in cash or in such
combination of cash and Shares as the Committee deems appropriate. A request for
payment only in Shares shall be approved and made in Shares to the extent
payment can be made in whole shares of Shares and (at the Committee's
discretion) in cash in lieu of any fractional Shares.

     8.4  Restrictions. Any Stock Incentive Agreement which incorporates a
provision to allow a Participant to surrender his or her Option in whole or in
part also shall incorporate such additional restrictions on the exercise or
surrender of such Option as the Committee deems necessary to satisfy the
conditions to the exemption under Rule 16b-3 (or any successor exemption) to
Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.

                                  Section 9.
                             Securities Regulation

     Each Stock Incentive Agreement may provide that, upon the receipt of Shares
as a result of the surrender or exercise of a Stock Incentive, the Participant
shall, if so requested by the Company, hold such Shares for investment and not
with a view of resale or distribution to the public and, if so requested by the
Company, shall deliver to the Company a written statement satisfactory to the
Company to that effect.  Each Stock Incentive Agreement may also provide that,
if so requested by the Company, the Participant shall make a written
representation to the Company that he or she will not sell or offer to sell any
of such Shares unless a registration statement shall be in effect with respect
to such Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("1933 Act"), and
any applicable state securities law or, unless he or she shall have furnished to
the Company an opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, of
legal counsel acceptable to the Company, that such registration is not required.
Certificates representing the Shares transferred upon the exercise or surrender
of a Stock Incentive granted under this Plan may at the discretion of the
Company bear a legend to the effect that such Shares have not been registered
under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities law and that such Shares
may not be sold or offered for sale in the absence of an effective registration
statement as to such Shares under the 1933 Act and any applicable state
securities law or an opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company,
of legal counsel acceptable to the Company, that such registration is not
required.

                                  Section 10.
                                 Life Of Plan

     No Stock Incentive shall be granted under this Plan on or after the earlier
of:

     (a)  the tenth (10th) anniversary of the effective date of this Plan (as
determined under Section 4 of this Plan), in which event this Plan otherwise
thereafter shall continue in effect until all outstanding Stock Incentives have
been surrendered or exercised in full or no longer are exercisable, or

                                       7
<PAGE>

     (b)  the date on which all of the Shares reserved under Section 3 of this
Plan have (as a result of the surrender or exercise of Stock Incentives granted
under this Plan) been issued or no longer are available for use under this Plan,
in which event this Plan also shall terminate on such date.

                                  Section 11.
                                  Adjustment

     The number of Shares reserved under Section 3 of this Plan, and the number
of Shares subject to Stock Incentives granted under this Plan, and the Exercise
Price of any Options, shall be adjusted by the Committee in an equitable manner
to reflect any change in the capitalization of the Company, including, but not
limited to, such changes as stock dividends or stock splits. Furthermore, the
Committee shall have the right to adjust (in a manner which satisfies the
requirements of Code Section 424(a)) the number of Shares reserved under Section
3, and the number of Shares subject to Stock Incentives granted under this Plan,
and the Exercise Price of any Options in the event of any corporate transaction
described in Code Section 424(a) which provides for the substitution or
assumption of such Stock Incentives. If any adjustment under this Section
creates a fractional Share or a right to acquire a fractional Share, such
fractional Share shall be disregarded, and the number of Shares reserved under
this Plan and the number subject to any Stock Incentives granted under this Plan
shall be the next lower number of Shares, rounding all fractions downward. An
adjustment made under this Section by the Committee shall be conclusive and
binding on all affected persons and, further, shall not constitute an increase
in the number of Shares reserved under Section 3.

                                  Section 12.
                         Sale Or Merger Of The Company

     If the Company (i) agrees to sell or transfer eighty percent (80%) or more
of the total value all of its assets and assign its customer agreements for cash
or property, or for a combination of cash and property, or (ii) agrees to any
merger, consolidation, reorganization, division or other transaction in which
eighty percent (80%) or more of the issued and outstanding Shares are converted
into another security or into the right to receive securities or property and
such agreement does not provide for the assumption or substitution of the Stock
Incentives granted under this Plan, each Stock Incentive at the direction and
discretion of the Committee, or as is otherwise provided in the Stock Incentive
Agreements, may be canceled unilaterally by the Company in exchange for the
whole Shares (or, subject to satisfying the conditions to the exemption under
Rule 16b-3 or any successor exemption to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, for
the whole Shares and the cash in lieu of a fractional Share) which each
Participant otherwise would receive if he or she had the right to surrender or
exercise his or her outstanding Stock Incentive in full and he or she exercised
that right exclusively for Shares on a date fixed by the Committee which comes
before such sale or other corporate transaction.

                                  Section 13.
                           Amendment Or Termination

     This Plan may be amended by the Board from time to time to the extent that
the Board deems necessary or appropriate; provided, however, no such amendment
shall be made absent the approval of the shareholders of the Company:  (a) to
increase the number of Shares reserved under Section 3, except as set forth in
Section 11, (b) to extend the maximum life of the Plan under Section 10 or the
maximum exercise period under Section 7, (c) to decrease the minimum Exercise
Price under Section 7, or (d) to change the designation of Employees or Key
Persons eligible for Stock Incentives under Section 6.  The Board also may
suspend the granting of Stock Incentives under this Plan at any time and may
terminate this Plan at any time; provided, however, the Company shall not have
the right to modify, amend or cancel any Stock Incentive granted before such
suspension or termination unless:  (I) the Participant consents in writing to
such

                                       8
<PAGE>

modification, amendment or cancellation, or (II) there is a dissolution or
liquidation of the Company or a transaction described in Section 11 or Section
12.

                                  Section 14.
                                 Miscellaneous

     14.1  Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall have any rights as a
shareholder of the Company as a result of the grant of a Stock Incentive to him
or to her under this Plan or his or her exercise or surrender of such Stock
Incentive pending the actual delivery of Shares subject to such Stock Incentive
to such Participant.

     14.2  No Guarantee of Continued Relationship. The grant of a Stock
Incentive to a Participant under this Plan shall not constitute a contract of
employment and shall not confer on a Participant any rights upon his or her
termination of employment or relationship with the Company in addition to those
rights, if any, expressly set forth in the Stock Incentive Agreement which
evidences his or her Stock Incentive.

     14.3  Withholding. The exercise or surrender of any Stock Incentive granted
under this Plan shall constitute a Participant's full and complete consent to
whatever action the Committee directs to satisfy the federal and state tax
withholding requirements, if any, which the Committee in its discretion deems
applicable to such exercise or surrender.

     14.4  Transfer. The transfer of an Employee between or among the Company, a
Subsidiary or a Parent shall not be treated as a termination of his or her
employment under this Plan.

     14.5  Construction. This Plan shall be construed under the laws of the
State of Georgia.

     If an Option expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised
     in full, the unpurchased Shares which were subject thereto shall become
     available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has
     terminated). Shares that have actually been issued under the Plan shall not
     be returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future
     distribution under the Plan.

4.   Administration and Grants of Options under the Plan.

     (a)  Procedure for Grants.  No person shall have any discretion to select
          --------------------
          which Outside Directors shall be granted Options or to determine the
          number of Shares to be covered by Options granted to Outside
          Directors. Automatic grants hereunder shall be made in accordance with
          the following provisions:

          (i)    Each Outside Director (other than an Outside Director serving
                 on the Board on the effective date of this Plan, as determined
                 in accordance with Section 6 hereof) shall be automatically
                 granted an Option to purchase Two Thousand Five Hundred (2,500)
                 Shares (the "First Option") on the date on which such person
                 first becomes an Outside Director, whether through election by
                 the shareholders of the Company or appointment by the Board to
                 fill a vacancy; provided, however, that an Inside Director who
                 ceases to be an Inside Director but who remains a Director
                 shall not receive a First Option.

                                       2
<PAGE>

          (ii)   Each Outside Director shall be automatically granted an Option
                 to purchase One Thousand (1,000) Shares (a "Subsequent Option")
                 on (A) the date such person is elected or reelected, as the
                 case may be, to the Board by the shareholders at the Company's
                 annual meeting of shareholders or otherwise, if on such date,
                 he or she shall have served on the Board for at least six (6)
                 months or (B) in the case of an Outside Director serving a
                 multi-year term, the date of each such annual meeting during
                 his term (other than the meeting at which he or she is elected
                 and the meeting at which his or her term ends), if on such date
                 he or she shall have served on the Board for at least six (6)
                 months.

          (iii)  Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (ii) and (iii)
                 hereof, any exercise of an Option granted before the Company
                 has obtained shareholder approval of the Plan in accordance
                 with Section 16 hereof shall be conditioned upon obtaining such
                 shareholder approval of the Plan in accordance with Section 16
                 hereof.

          (iv)   The terms of an Option granted hereunder shall be as follows:

                 (A)  the term of the Option shall be ten (10) years.

                 (B)  the Option shall be exercisable only while the Outside
                      Director remains a Director of the Company, except as set
                      forth in Sections 8 and 10 hereof.

                 (C)  the exercise price per Share shall be equal to the Fair
                      Market Value per Share on the date of grant of the Option.
                      In the event that the date of grant of the Option is not a
                      trading day, the exercise price per Share shall be the
                      Fair Market Value on the next trading day immediately
                      following the date of grant of the Option.

          (v)    In the event that any Option granted under the Plan would cause
                 the number of Shares subject to outstanding Options plus the
                 number of Shares previously purchased under Options to exceed
                 the Pool, then the remaining Shares available for Option grant
                 shall be granted under Options to the Outside Directors on a
                 pro rata basis. No further grants shall be made until such
                 time, if any, as additional Shares become available for grant
                 under the Plan through action of the Board or the shareholders
                 to increase the number of Shares which may be issued under the
                 Plan or through cancellation or expiration of Options
                 previously granted hereunder.

5.   Eligibility. Options may be granted only to Outside Directors. All Options
     shall be automatically granted in accordance with the terms set forth in
     Section 4 hereof.

     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 the Director's relationship with the Company
     at any time.

6.   Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of
     its adoption by the Board or its approval by the shareholders of the
     Company as described in Section 16 of the Plan. It shall continue in effect
     for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated under Section 11 of
     the Plan.

                                       3
<PAGE>

7.   Form of Consideration. The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be
     issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall
     consist of (i) cash, (ii) check, (iii) other shares which (x) in the case
     of Shares acquired upon exercise of an option, have been owned by the
     Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and (y)
     have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate
     exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised,
     (iv) delivery of a properly executed exercise notice together with such
     other documentation as the Company and the broker, if applicable, shall
     require to effect an exercise of the Option and delivery to the Company of
     the sale or loan proceeds required to pay the exercise price, or (v) any
     combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

8.   Exercise of Option.

     (a)  Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder.  Any Option granted
          -----------------------------------------------
          hereunder shall be exercisable at such times as are set forth in
          Section 4 hereof; provided, however, that no Options shall be
          exercisable until shareholder approval of the Plan in accordance with
          Section 16 hereof has been obtained.

          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 7 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 shall 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 10 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 Continuous Status as a Director.  Subject to Section 10
          ----------------------------------------------
          hereof, in the event an Optionee's status as a Director terminates
          (other than upon the Optionee's death or total and permanent
          disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code)), the Optionee
          may exercise his or her Option, but only within three (3) months
          following the date of such termination, and only to the extent that
          the Optionee was entitled to exercise it on the date of such
          termination (but in no event later than the expiration of its ten (10)
          year term). To the extent that the Optionee was not entitled to
          exercise an Option on the date of such termination, and to the extent
          that the Optionee does not exercise such Option (to the extent
          otherwise so entitled) within the time specified herein, the Option
          shall terminate.

     (c)  Disability of Optionee.  In the event Optionee's status as a Director
          ----------------------
          terminates as a result of total and permanent disability (as defined
          in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), the Optionee may exercise his or her
          Option, but only within twelve (12) months following the date of such

                                       4
<PAGE>

          termination, and only to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to
          exercise it on the date of such termination (but in no event later
          than the expiration of its ten (10) year term). To the extent that the
          Optionee was not entitled to exercise an Option on the date of
          termination, or if he or she does not exercise such Option (to the
          extent otherwise so entitled) within the time specified herein, the
          Option shall terminate.

     (d)  Death of Optionee.  In the event of an Optionee's death, the
          -----------------
          Optionee's estate or a person who acquired the right to exercise the
          Option by bequest or inheritance may exercise the Option, but only
          within twelve (12) months following the date of death, and only to the
          extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise it on the date of
          death (but in no event later than the expiration of its ten (10) year
          term). To the extent that the Optionee was not entitled to exercise an
          Option on the date of death, and to the extent that the Optionee's
          estate or a person who acquired the right to exercise such Option does
          not exercise such Option (to the extent otherwise so entitled) within
          the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

9.   Non-Transferability of Options. The Option may not, without the prior
     written consent of the non-interested members of the Board, be sold,
     pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner
     other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be
     exercised, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee (or
     its assignee permitted under the preceding clause).

10.  Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution, Merger or Asset
     Sale.

     (a)  Changes in Capitalization.  Subject to any required action by the
          -------------------------
          shareholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered by each
          Outstanding Option, the number of Shares 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 an Option, as well as the exercise price per Share
          covered by each such outstanding Option, and the number of Shares
          issuable pursuant to the automatic grant provisions of Section 4
          hereof shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease
          in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse
          stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the
          Common Stock. 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 subject to an Option.

     (b)  Dissolution or Liquidation.  In the event of the proposed dissolution
          --------------------------
          or liquidation of the Company, to the extent that an Option has not
          been previously exercised, it shall terminate immediately prior to the
          consummation of such proposed action.

     (c)  Merger or Asset Sale.  In the event of a merger of the Company with
          --------------------
          or into another corporation or the sale of substantially all of the
          assets of the Company, outstanding Options may be assumed or
          equivalent options may be substituted by the successor corporation or
          a Parent or Subsidiary thereof (the "Successor Corporation"). If an
          Option is assumed or substituted for, the Option or equivalent option
          shall continue to be exercisable as provided in Section 4 hereof for
          so long as the Optionee serves as a Director or a director of the
          Successor Corporation.

          If the Successor Corporation does not assume an outstanding Option or
          substitute for it-an equivalent option, then the Board shall notify
          the Optionee that the Option shall be fully

                                       5
<PAGE>

          exercisable for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of such
          notice, and upon the expiration of such period the Option shall
          terminate.

          For the purposes of this Section 10(c), an Option shall be considered
          assumed if, following the merger or sale of assets, the Option confers
          the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Optioned Stock
          subject to the Option immediately prior to the merger or sale of
          assets, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or
          property) received in the merger or sale of assets by holders of
          Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the
          transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration,
          the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the
          outstanding Shares). If such consideration received in the merger or
          sale of assets is not solely common stock of the successor corporation
          or its Parent, the Board may, with the consent of the successor
          corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the
          exercise of the Option, for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to
          the Option, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or
          its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration
          received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or sale of assets.

11.  Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

     (a)  Amendment and Termination.  The Board may at any time amend, alter,
          -------------------------
          suspend, or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration,
          suspension, or discontinuation shall be made which would impair the
          rights of any Optionee under any grant theretofore made, without his
          or her consent. In addition, to the extent necessary and desirable to
          comply with any applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule, the
          Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in
          such a manner and to such a degree as required.

     (b)  Effect of Amendment or Termination.  Any such amendment or termination
          ----------------------------------
          of the Plan shall not affect Options already granted and such Options
          shall remain in full force and effect as if this Plan had not been
          amended or terminated.

12.  Time of Granting Options. The date of grant of an Option shall, for all
     purposes, be the date determined in accordance with Section 4 hereof.

13.  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 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

                                       6
<PAGE>

     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.

14.  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.

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

16.  Shareholder Approval. Continuance of the Plan shall be subject to approval
     by the shareholders of the Company at or prior to the first annual meeting
     of shareholders held subsequent to the granting of an Option hereunder.
     Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner
     required under applicable state and federal law and any stock exchange
     rules.

17.  Governing Law.  This Plan shall be construed under the laws of the State of
     Georgia.

     RE:  Registration Statement on Form S-8
          ----------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to Digital Insight Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company" or "you") and have examined the Registration
Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed by the Company
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about February 18, 2000 in
connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
of 600,605 shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share
(the "Shares"), reserved for issuance under the nFront, Inc., Stock Incentive
Plan and the nFront, Inc., Director Stock Option Plan (collectively the
"Plans").

     As your legal counsel, we have examined the Restated Certificate of
Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company, the Plans and such other documents of
the Company as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of the
opinion expressed herein, and are familiar with the proceedings proposed to be
taken by you in connection with the operation and administration of the Plans
and the sale and issuance of the Shares pursuant to the Plans.

     In our opinion, the Shares, when issued and sold in the manner referred to
in the Plans and pursuant to the agreements which accompany the Plans, will be
legally and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

     We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and further consent to the use of our name wherever appearing in the
Registration Statement and any subsequent amendment thereto.

                              Very truly yours,
