               Information Required in the Registration Statement

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference
         ---------------------------------------

     Ravisent Technologies Inc. (the "Registrant") hereby incorporates by
reference into this Registration Statement the following documents previously
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"):

     (a)  The Registrant's Prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)
          promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, filed with
          the SEC on July 19, 1999, in connection with the Registrant's
          Registration Statement No. 333-77269, in which there is set forth the
          audited consolidated financial statements for the Registrant's fiscal
          year ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996;

     (b)  The Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on
          November 22, 1999.

     (c)  The Registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters
          ending on June 30, 1999 and September 30, 1999, filed with the SEC on
          August 30, 1999, and November 12, 1999, respectively; and

     (d)  The Registrant's Registration Statement No. 000-26287 on Form 8-A12G
          filed with the SEC on June 7, 1999, together with the amendment
          thereto on Form 8-A12G/A filed with the SEC on June 24, 1999, in which
          there is described the terms, rights and provisions applicable to the
          Registrant's outstanding Common Stock.

     All reports and definitive proxy or information statements filed pursuant
to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, (the "1934 Act") after the date of this Registration Statement and
prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all
securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities
then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this
Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such
documents.  Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded
for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement
contained herein or in any subsequently filed document which also is deemed to
be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any
such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so
modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

Item 4.  Description of Securities
         -------------------------

         Not Applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
         --------------------------------------

         Not Applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers
         -----------------------------------------

     Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL") 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,
as amended (the "Securities Act"). Article VII, Section 6 of Registrant's bylaws
provides for mandatory indemnification of its directors and officers and
permissible indemnification of employees and other agents to the maximum extent
permitted by the DGCL.  Registrant's certificate of incorporation provides that,
subject to Delaware law, its directors shall not be personally liable for
monetary damages for breach of the directors' fiduciary duty as directors to
Registrant and its stockholders.  This provision in the certificate of
incorporation does not eliminate the directors' fiduciary duty, and in
appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms
of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law.  In addition,
each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the
director's

                                      II-1
<PAGE>

duty of loyalty to Registrant or its stockholders for acts or omissions not in
good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law,
for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for
payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are
unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect a director's
responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or
state or federal environmental laws. Registrant has entered into indemnification
agreements with its officers and directors, a form of which was previously filed
with the SEC as an exhibit to the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-
1 (No. 333-77269). The indemnification agreements provide Registrant's officers
and directors with further indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by
the DGCL. Reference is also made to Section 7(b) of the underwriting agreement
contained in Exhibit 1.1 hereto, indemnifying officers and directors of
Registrant against certain liabilities, and Section 1.10 of the registration
rights agreement contained in Exhibit 4.2 hereto, indemnifying certain of
Registrant's stockholders, including controlling stockholders, against certain
liabilities.

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 (i) to include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
Registration Statement and (iii) to include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this
Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall
not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the
Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement; (2) that for the
purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act 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; and (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 Ravisent
Technologies Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive Plan, 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan,
the individual options granted to certain individuals pursuant to a written
compensation agreement, or the Teknema, Inc. 1996 Stock Option Plan.

                                      II-2
<PAGE>

          B.  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is
incorporated by reference into this 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 1933
Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act, and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant 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 whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

     Re:  Ravisent Technologies Inc. (the "Company") Registration Statement for
          Offering of an Aggregate of 4,607,861 Shares of Common Stock
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------


Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to Ravisent Technologies Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company") in connection with the registration statement on
Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, of (i) an initial reserve of 2,701,032 shares of the Company's common
stock (the "Shares") for issuance under the Company's 1999 Stock Incentive Plan
(the "Incentive Plan"), (ii) an initial reserve of 500,000 Shares for issuance
under the Company's 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan"),
(iii) a total of 869,257 shares of Company's common stock issuable pursuant to
the stock options granted to certain individuals pursuant to a written
compensation agreement, (the "Individual Options") and (iv) a total of 537,569
Shares for issuance under the Teknema, Inc. 1996 Stock Option Plan
(collectively, "the Options").

     This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of
Item 8 of Form S-8 and Item 601(b)(5)(i) of Regulation S-K.

     We have reviewed the Company's charter documents and the corporate
proceedings taken by the Company in connection with the establishment of the
Options.  Based on such review, we are of the opinion that, if, as and when the
Shares are issued and sold (and the consideration therefor received) pursuant to
the (a) provisions of option agreements duly authorized under the Incentive Plan
and in accordance with the Registration Statement, (b) duly authorized direct
stock issuances in accordance with the Incentive Plan and in accordance with the
Registration Statement, (c) duly authorized stock purchase rights granted and
exercised under the Purchase Plan and in accordance with the Registration
Statement, (d) provisions of the Individual Options and in accordance with the
Registration Statement, or (e) provisions of option agreements authorized under
the Teknema, Inc.1996 Stock Option Plan and in accordance with the Registration
Statement.  Such Shares will be duly authorized, legally issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.

     We consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 5 to the
Registration Statement.

     This opinion letter is rendered as of the date first written above and
we disclaim any obligation to advise you of facts, circumstances, events or
developments which hereafter may be brought to our attention and which may
alter, affect or modify the opinion expressed herein.  Our opinion is expressly
limited to the matters set forth above and we render no opinion, whether by
implication or otherwise, as to any other matters relating to the Company, the
Incentive Plan, the Purchase Plan, the Individual Options, the Teknema, Inc.
1996 Stock Option Plan or the Shares issuable under such plans or the Individual
Options.

                              Very truly yours,

                              /s/ Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison LLP

                           -------------------------

                                  ARTICLE ONE
                               GENERAL PROVISIONS
                               ------------------

     I.   PURPOSE OF THE PLAN

          This 1999 Stock Incentive Plan is intended to promote the interests of
Ravisent Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, by providing eligible
persons with the opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest, or otherwise
increase their proprietary interest, in the Corporation as an incentive for them
to remain in the service of the Corporation.

          Capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in
the attached Appendix.

     II.  STRUCTURE OF THE PLAN

          A.  The Plan shall be divided into three separate equity programs:

             (i)   the Discretionary Option Grant Program under which eligible
     persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be granted
     options to purchase shares of Common Stock,

             (ii)  the Stock Issuance Program under which eligible persons may,
     at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be issued shares of Common
     Stock directly, either through the immediate purchase of such shares or as
     a bonus for services rendered the Corporation (or any Parent or
     Subsidiary), and

             (iii) the Automatic Option Grant Program under which eligible non-
     employee Board members shall automatically receive options at periodic
     intervals to purchase shares of Common Stock.

          B.  The provisions of Articles One and Five shall apply to all equity
programs under the Plan and shall govern the interests of all persons under the
Plan.

     III.  ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

          A.  The following provisions shall govern the administration of the
Plan:

             (i)   The Board shall have the authority to administer the
     Discretionary Option Grant and Stock Issuance Programs with respect to
     Section 16 Insiders but may delegate such authority in whole or in part to
     the Primary Committee.

             (ii)  Administration of the Discretionary Option Grant and Stock
     Issuance Programs with respect to all other persons eligible to participate
     in
<PAGE>

     those programs may, at the Board's discretion, be vested in the Primary
     Committee or a Secondary Committee, or the Board may retain the power to
     administer those programs with respect to all such persons.

             (iii) Administration of the Automatic Option Grant Program shall be
     self-executing in accordance with the terms of that program.

          B.  Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its
administrative jurisdiction under the Plan, have full power and authority
subject to the provisions of the Plan:

             (i)   to establish such rules as it may deem appropriate for proper
     administration of the Plan, to make all factual determinations, to construe
     and interpret the provisions of the Plan and the awards thereunder and to
     resolve any and all ambiguities thereunder;

             (ii)  to determine, with respect to awards made under the
     Discretionary Option Grant and Stock Issuance Programs, which eligible
     persons are to receive such awards, the time or times when such awards are
     to be made, the number of shares to be covered by each such award, the
     vesting schedule (if any) applicable to the award, the status of a granted
     option as either an Incentive Option or a Non-Statutory Option and the
     maximum term for which the option is to remain outstanding;

             (iii) to amend, modify or cancel any outstanding award with the
     consent of the holder or accelerate the vesting of such award; and

             (iv) to take such other discretionary actions as permitted pursuant
     to the terms of the applicable program.

Decisions of each Plan Administrator within the scope of its administrative
functions under the Plan shall be final and binding on all parties.

          C.  Members of the Primary Committee or any Secondary Committee shall
serve for such period of time as the Board may determine and may be removed by
the Board at any time. The Board may also at any time terminate the functions of
any Secondary Committee and reassume all powers and authority previously
delegated to such committee.

          D.  Service on the Primary Committee or the Secondary Committee shall
constitute service as a Board member, and members of each such committee shall
accordingly be entitled to full indemnification and reimbursement as Board
members for their service on such committee. No member of the Primary Committee
or the Secondary Committee shall be liable for any act or omission made in good
faith with respect to the Plan or any options or stock issuances under the Plan.

     IV.  ELIGIBILITY

          A.  The persons eligible to participate in the Discretionary Option
Grant and Stock Issuance Programs are as follows:

                                       2
<PAGE>

             (i)   Employees,

             (ii)  non-employee members of the Board or the board of directors
     of any Parent or Subsidiary, and

             (iii) consultants and other independent advisors who provide
services to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).

          B.  Only non-employee Board members shall be eligible to participate
in the Automatic Option Grant Program.

     V.  STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

          A.  The stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of authorized
but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the
Corporation on the open market. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock
initially reserved for issuance over the term of the Plan shall not exceed Two
Million Seven Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand (2,725,000) shares. Such authorized
share reserve consists of (i) the number of shares which remain available for
issuance, as of the Plan Effective Date, under the Predecessor Plan as last
approved by the Corporation's stockholders, including the shares subject to the
outstanding options to be incorporated into the Plan and the additional shares
which would otherwise be available for future grant, plus (ii) an increase of
approximately Eight Hundred Ninety-Two thousand (892,000) shares authorized by
the Board but subject to stockholder approval at the 1999 Annual Stockholders
Meeting.

          B.  The number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under
the Plan shall automatically increase on the first trading day of each calendar
year during the term of the Plan, beginning with the 2000 calendar year, by an
amount equal to one percent (1%) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on
the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar year, but in no event
shall such annual increase exceed Two Hundred Thousand (200,000) shares.

          C.  No one person participating in the Plan may receive options,
separately exercisable stock appreciation rights and direct stock issuances for
more than Seven Hundred Thousand (700,000) shares of Common Stock in the
aggregate per calendar year, beginning with the 1999 calendar year.

          D.  Shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding options (including
options incorporated into this Plan from the Predecessor Plans) shall be
available for subsequent issuance under the Plan to the extent those options
expire, terminate or are cancelled for any reason prior to exercise in full.
Unvested shares issued under the Plan and subsequently repurchased by the
Corporation, at the original exercise or issue price paid per share, pursuant to
the Corporation's repurchase rights under the Plan shall be added back to the
number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan and shall
accordingly be available for reissuance through one or more subsequent options
or direct stock issuances under the Plan. However, should the exercise price of
an option under the Plan be paid with shares of Common Stock or should shares of
Common Stock otherwise issuable under the Plan be withheld by the Corporation in
satisfaction of the withholding taxes incurred in connection with the exercise
of

                                       3
<PAGE>

an option or the vesting of a stock issuance under the Plan, then the number of
shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by
the gross number of shares for which the option is exercised or which vest under
the stock issuance, and not by the net number of shares of Common Stock issued
to the holder of such option or stock issuance. Shares of Common Stock
underlying one or more stock appreciation rights exercised under the Plan shall
not be available for subsequent issuance.

          E.  If any change is made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock
split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of
shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without
the Corporation's receipt of consideration, appropriate adjustments shall be
made to (i) the maximum number and/or class of securities issuable under the
Plan, (ii) the maximum number of securities by which the share reserve is to
increase each calendar year pursuant to the automatic share increase provisions
of the Plan, (iii) the number and/or class of securities for which any one
person may be granted options, separately exercisable stock appreciation rights
and direct stock issuances under this Plan per calendar year, (iv) the number
and/or class of securities for which grants are subsequently to be made under
the Automatic Option Grant Program to new and continuing non-employee Board
members, (v) the number and/or class of securities and the exercise price per
share in effect under each outstanding option under the Plan and (vi) the number
and/or class of securities and price per share in effect under each outstanding
option incorporated into this Plan from the Predecessor Plans. Such adjustments
to the outstanding options are to be effected in a manner which shall preclude
the enlargement or dilution of rights and benefits under such options. The
adjustments determined by the Plan Administrator shall be final, binding and
conclusive.

                                  ARTICLE TWO
                       DISCRETIONARY OPTION GRANT PROGRAM
                       ----------------------------------

     I.   OPTION TERMS

          Each option shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form
approved by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that each such document
                                    --------
shall comply with the terms specified below.  Each document evidencing an
Incentive Option shall, in addition, be subject to the provisions of the Plan
applicable to such options.

          A.  Exercise Price.
              --------------

           1.  The exercise price per share shall be fixed by the Plan
Administrator at the time of the option grant.

           2.  The exercise price shall become immediately due upon exercise of
the option and shall, subject to the provisions of Section II of Article Five
and the documents evidencing the option, be payable in one or more of the
following forms:

             (i)   in cash or check made payable to the Corporation,

             (ii)  shares of Common Stock held for the requisite period
     necessary to avoid a charge to the Corporation's earnings for financial
     reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date, or

             (iii) to the extent the option is exercised for vested shares,
through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee
shall concurrently provide irrevocable instructions to (a) a Corporation-
approved brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and
remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement
date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the
purchased shares plus all applicable Federal, state and local income and
employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation by reason of such
exercise and (b) the Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased
shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale.

          Except to the extent such sale and remittance procedure is utilized,
payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on the
Exercise Date.

          B.  Exercise and Term of Options.  Each option shall be exercisable at
              ----------------------------
such time or times, during such period and for such number of shares as shall be
determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the documents evidencing
the option. However, no option shall have a term in excess of ten (10) years
measured from the option grant date.

          C.  Cessation of Service.
              --------------------

            1.  The following provisions shall govern the exercise of any
options outstanding at the time of the Optionee's cessation of Service or death:

                                       5
<PAGE>

             (i)   Any option outstanding at the time of the Optionee's
     cessation of Service for any reason shall remain exercisable for such
     period of time thereafter as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator
     and set forth in the documents evidencing the option, but no such option
     shall be exercisable after the expiration of the option term.

             (ii)  Any option exercisable in whole or in part by the Optionee at
     the time of death may be subsequently exercised by his or her Beneficiary.

             (iii) During the applicable post-Service exercise period, the
     option may not be exercised in the aggregate for more than the number of
     vested shares for which the option is exercisable on the date of the
     Optionee's cessation of Service. Upon the expiration of the applicable
     exercise period or (if earlier) upon the expiration of the option term, the
     option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any vested shares
     for which the option has not been exercised. However, the option shall,
     immediately upon the Optionee's cessation of Service, terminate and cease
     to be outstanding to the extent the option is not otherwise at that time
     exercisable for vested shares.

             (iv)  Should the Optionee's Service be terminated for Misconduct or
     should the Optionee engage in Misconduct while his or her options are
     outstanding, then all such options shall terminate immediately and cease to
     be outstanding.

            2.  The Plan Administrator shall have complete discretion,
exercisable either at the time an option is granted or at any time while the
option remains outstanding:

             (i)   to extend the period of time for which the option is to
     remain exercisable following the Optionee's cessation of Service to such
     period of time as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate, but in no
     event beyond the expiration of the option term, and/or

             (ii)  to permit the option to be exercised, during the applicable
     post-Service exercise period, for one or more additional installments in
     which the Optionee would have vested had the Optionee continued in Service.

          D.  Stockholder Rights.  The holder of an option shall have no
              ------------------
stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the option until such
person shall have exercised the option, paid the exercise price and become a
holder of record of the purchased shares.

          E.  Repurchase Rights.  The Plan Administrator shall have the
              -----------------
discretion to grant options which are exercisable for unvested shares of Common
Stock. Should the Optionee cease Service while holding such unvested shares, the
Corporation shall have the right to repurchase, at the exercise price paid per
share, any or all of those unvested shares. The terms upon which such repurchase
right shall be exercisable (including the period and procedure for exercise and
the appropriate vesting schedule for the purchased shares) shall be established
by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the document evidencing such
repurchase right.

                                       6
<PAGE>

          F.  Limited Transferability of Options.  During the lifetime of the
              ----------------------------------
Optionee, Incentive Options shall be exercisable only by the Optionee and shall
not be assignable or transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent
and distribution following the Optionee's death. Non-Statutory Options shall be
subject to the same restrictions, except that a Non-Statutory Option may, to the
extent permitted by the Plan Administrator, be assigned in whole or in part
during the Optionee's lifetime to one or more members of the Optionee's
immediate family or to a trust in which the Optionee and/or one or more such
family members have more than a fifty percent (50%) of the beneficial interest
or to any other entity in which the Optionee and/or one or more such family
members own more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting interests. The terms
applicable to the assigned portion shall be the same as those in effect for the
option immediately prior to such assignment and shall be set forth in such
documents issued to the assignee as the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate.

     II.  INCENTIVE OPTIONS

          The terms specified below shall be applicable to all Incentive
Options.  Except as modified by the provisions of this Section II, all the
provisions of Articles One, Two and Seven shall be applicable to Incentive
Options.  Options which are specifically designated as Non-Statutory Options
when issued under the Plan shall not be subject to the terms of this Section II.
                                 ---

          A.  Eligibility.  Incentive Options may only be granted to Employees.
              -----------

          B.  Exercise Price.  The exercise price per share shall not be less
              --------------
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock on the option grant date.

          C.  Dollar Limitation.  The aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares
              -----------------
of Common Stock (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) for
which one or more options granted to any Employee under the Plan (or any other
option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) may for the first
time become exercisable as Incentive Options during any one calendar year shall
not exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). To the extent the
Employee holds two (2) or more such options which become exercisable for the
first time in the same calendar year, the foregoing limitation on the
exercisability of such options as Incentive Options shall be applied on the
basis of the order in which such options are granted.

          D.  10% Stockholder.  If any Employee to whom an Incentive Option is
              ---------------
granted is a 10% Stockholder, then the exercise price per share shall not be
less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock on the option grant date, and the option term shall not exceed five
(5) years measured from the option grant date.

     III.  CHANGE IN CONTROL/HOSTILE TAKE-OVER

          A.  Each option outstanding at the time of a Change in Control but not
otherwise fully-vested shall automatically accelerate so that each such option
shall, immediately prior to the effective date of the Change in Control, become
exercisable for all of the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to that
option and may be exercised for any or all of those shares as fully-vested
shares of Common Stock. However, an outstanding option shall not so accelerate
if and to the extent: (i) such option is, in connection with the Change in
Control,

                                       7
<PAGE>

assumed or otherwise continued in full force and effect by the successor
corporation (or parent thereof) pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control,
(ii) such option is replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor
corporation which preserves the spread existing at the time of the Change in
Control on the shares of Common Stock for which the option is not otherwise at
that time exercisable and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the
same vesting schedule applicable to those option shares or (iii) the
acceleration of such option is subject to other limitations imposed by the Plan
Administrator at the time of the option grant.

          B.  All outstanding repurchase rights shall also terminate
automatically, and the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights
shall immediately vest in full, in the event of any Change in Control, except to
the extent: (i) those repurchase rights are assigned to the successor
corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise continue in full force and effect
pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control or (ii) such accelerated vesting
is precluded by other limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator at the time
the repurchase right is issued.

          C.  Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control,
all outstanding options shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except to
the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise
expressly continued in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change
in Control.

          D.  Each option which is assumed in connection with a Change in
Control shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change in
Control, to apply to the number and class of securities which would have been
issuable to the Optionee in consummation of such Change in Control had the
option been exercised immediately prior to such Change in Control. Appropriate
adjustments to reflect such Change in Control shall also be made to (i) the
exercise price payable per share under each outstanding option, provided the
                                                                --------
aggregate exercise price payable for such securities shall remain the same, (ii)
the maximum number and/or class of securities available for issuance over the
remaining term of the Plan and (iii) the maximum number and/or class of
securities for which any one person may be granted options, separately
exercisable stock appreciation rights and direct stock issuances under the Plan
per calendar year.

          E.  The Plan Administrator may at any time provide that one or more
options will automatically accelerate in connection with a Change in Control,
whether or not those options are assumed or otherwise continued in full force
and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control. Any such option shall
accordingly become exercisable, immediately prior to the effective date of such
Change in Control, for all of the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to
that option and may be exercised for any or all of those shares as fully-vested
shares of Common Stock. In addition, the Plan Administrator may at any time
provide that one or more of the Corporation's repurchase rights shall not be
assignable in connection with such Change in Control and shall terminate upon
the consummation of such Change in Control.

          F.  The Plan Administrator may at any time provide that one or more
options will automatically accelerate upon an Involuntary Termination of the
Optionee's Service within a designated period (not to exceed eighteen (18)
months) following the effective date of any Change in Control in which those
options do not otherwise accelerate. Any options so accelerated shall remain
exercisable for fully-vested shares until the earlier of (i) the expiration of
                                              -------
the option term or (ii) the expiration of the one (1) year period measured from
the effective

                                       8
<PAGE>

date of the Involuntary Termination. In addition, the Plan Administrator may at
any time provide that one or more of the Corporation's repurchase rights shall
immediately terminate upon such Involuntary Termination.

          G.  The Plan Administrator may at any time provide that one or more
options will automatically accelerate in connection with a Hostile Take-Over.
Any such option shall become exercisable, immediately prior to the effective
date of such Hostile Take-Over, for all of the shares of Common Stock at the
time subject to that option and may be exercised for any or all of those shares
as fully-vested shares of Common Stock. In addition, the Plan Administrator may
at any time provide that one or more of the Corporation's repurchase rights
shall terminate automatically upon the consummation of such Hostile Take-Over.
Alternatively, the Plan Administrator may condition such automatic acceleration
and termination upon an Involuntary Termination of the Optionee's Service within
a designated period (not to exceed eighteen (18) months) following the effective
date of such Hostile Take-Over. Each option so accelerated shall remain
exercisable for fully-vested shares until the expiration or sooner termination
of the option term.

          H.  The portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in connection with
a Change in Control or Hostile Take Over shall remain exercisable as an
Incentive Option only to the extent the applicable One Hundred Thousand Dollar
($100,000) limitation is not exceeded. To the extent such dollar limitation is
exceeded, the accelerated portion of such option shall be exercisable as a Non-
Statutory Option under the Federal tax laws.

     IV.  STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

          The Plan Administrator may, subject to such conditions as it may
determine, grant to selected Optionees stock appreciation rights which will
allow the holders of those rights to elect between the exercise of the
underlying option for shares of Common Stock and the surrender of that option in
exchange for a distribution from the Corporation in an amount equal to the
excess of (a) the Option Surrender Value of the number of shares for which the
option is surrendered over (b) the aggregate exercise price payable for such
shares.  The distribution may be made in shares of Common Stock valued at Fair
Market Value on the option surrender date, in cash, or partly in shares and
partly in cash, as the Plan Administrator shall in its sole discretion deem
appropriate.

                            STOCK ISSUANCE PROGRAM
                            ----------------------

     I.  STOCK ISSUANCE TERMS

          Shares of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock Issuance Program
through direct and immediate issuances without any intervening options.  Shares
of Common Stock may also be issued under the Stock Issuance Program pursuant to
share right awards which entitle the recipients to receive those shares upon the
attainment of designated performance goals or Service requirements.  Each such
award shall be evidenced by one or more documents which comply with the terms
specified below.

          A.  Purchase Price.
              --------------
            1.  The purchase price per share of Common Stock subject to direct
issuance shall be fixed by the Plan Administrator.

            2.  Subject to the provisions of Section II of Article Five, Shares
of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock Issuance Program for any of the
following items of consideration which the Plan Administrator may deem
appropriate in each individual instance:

             (i)   cash or check made payable to the Corporation, or

             (ii)  past services rendered to the Corporation (or any Parent or
     Subsidiary).

          B.  Vesting/Issuance Provisions.
              ---------------------------

            1.  The Plan Administrator may issue shares of Common Stock which
are fully and immediately vested upon issuance or which are to vest in one or
more installments over the Participant's period of Service or upon attainment of
specified performance objectives. Alternatively, the Plan Administrator may
issue share right awards which shall entitle the recipient to receive a
specified number of vested shares of Common Stock upon the attainment of one or
more performance goals or Service requirements established by the Plan
Administrator.

            2.  Any new, substituted or additional securities or other property
(including money paid other than as a regular cash dividend) which the
Participant may have the right to receive with respect to his or her unvested
shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, stock split,
recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change
affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation's
receipt of consideration shall be issued subject to (i) the same vesting
requirements applicable to the Participant's unvested shares of Common Stock and
(ii) such escrow arrangements as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate.

            3.  The Participant shall have full stockholder rights with respect
to the issued shares of Common Stock, whether or not the Participant's interest
in those shares is

                                       10
<PAGE>

vested. Accordingly, the Participant shall have the right to vote such shares
and to receive any regular cash dividends paid on such shares.

            4.  Should the Participant cease to remain in Service while holding
one or more unvested shares of Common Stock, or should the performance
objectives not be attained with respect to one or more such unvested shares of
Common Stock, then those shares shall be immediately surrendered to the
Corporation for cancellation, and the Participant shall have no further
stockholder rights with respect to those shares. To the extent the surrendered
shares were previously issued to the Participant for consideration paid in cash
or cash equivalent (including the Participant's purchase-money indebtedness),
the Corporation shall repay to the Participant the cash consideration paid for
the surrendered shares and shall cancel the unpaid principal balance of any
outstanding purchase-money note of the Participant attributable to the
surrendered shares.

            5.  The Plan Administrator may waive the surrender and cancellation
of one or more unvested shares of Common Stock (or other assets attributable
thereto) which would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the Participant's
Service or the non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to those
shares. Such waiver shall result in the immediate vesting of the Participant's
interest in the shares of Common Stock as to which the waiver applies. Such
waiver may be effected at any time, whether before or after the Participant's
cessation of Service or the attainment or non-attainment of the applicable
performance objectives.

            6.  Outstanding share right awards shall automatically terminate,
and no shares of Common Stock shall actually be issued in satisfaction of those
awards, if the performance goals or Service requirements established for such
awards are not attained. The Plan Administrator, however, shall have the
authority to issue shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of one or more
outstanding share right awards as to which the designated performance goals or
Service requirements are not attained.

     II.  CHANGE IN CONTROL/HOSTILE TAKE-OVER

          A.  All of the Corporation's outstanding repurchase rights shall
terminate automatically, and all the shares of Common Stock subject to those
terminated rights shall immediately vest in full, in the event of any Change in
Control, except to the extent (i) those repurchase rights are assigned to the
successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise continue in full force
and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control or (ii) such
accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed by the Plan
Administrator at the time the repurchase right is issued.

          B.  The Plan Administrator may at any time provide for the automatic
termination of one or more of those outstanding repurchase rights and the
immediate vesting of the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated
rights upon (i) a Change in Control or Hostile Take-Over or (ii) an Involuntary
Termination of the Participant's Service within a designated period (not to
exceed eighteen (18) months) following the effective date of any Change in
Control or Hostile Take-Over in which those repurchase rights are assigned to
the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise continue in full
force and effect.

                                       11
<PAGE>

     III.  SHARE ESCROW/LEGENDS

          Unvested shares may, in the Plan Administrator's discretion, be held
in escrow by the Corporation until the Participant's interest in such shares
vests or may be issued directly to the Participant with restrictive legends on
the certificates evidencing those unvested shares.

                         AUTOMATIC OPTION GRANT PROGRAM
                         ------------------------------

     I.  OPTION TERMS

          A.  Grant Dates.  Options shall be made on the dates specified below:
              -----------

            1.  Each individual who is first elected or appointed as a non-
employee Board member at any time after the Plan Effective Date shall
automatically be granted, on the date of such initial election or appointment, a
Non-Statutory Option to purchase Twenty Thousand (20,000) shares of Common
Stock, provided that individual has not previously been in the employ of the
Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary.

            2.  On the date of each Annual Stockholders Meeting beginning with
the 1999 Annual Stockholders Meeting, each individual who is to continue to
serve as a non-employee Board member, whether or not that individual is standing
for re-election to the Board, shall automatically be granted a Non-Statutory
Option to purchase Five Thousand (5,000) shares of Common Stock, provided such
individual has served as a non-employee Board member for at least six (6)
months.

          B.  Exercise Price.
              --------------
            1.  The exercise price per share shall be equal to one hundred
percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option
grant date.

            2.  The exercise price shall be payable in one or more of the
alternative forms authorized under the Discretionary Option Grant Program.
Except to the extent the sale and remittance procedure specified thereunder is
utilized, payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on
the Exercise Date.

          C.  Option Term.  Each option shall have a term of ten (10) years
              -----------
measured from the option grant date.

          D.  Exercise and Vesting of Options.  Each option shall be immediately
              -------------------------------
exercisable for any or all of the option shares.  However, any shares purchased
under the option shall be subject to repurchase by the Corporation, at the
exercise price paid per share, upon the Optionee's cessation of Board service
prior to vesting in those shares.  Each Twenty Thousand (20,000)-share option
shall vest, and the Corporation's repurchase right shall lapse, in a series of
four (4) successive equal annual installments upon the Optionee's completion of
each year of Board service over the four (4)-year period measured from the grant
date.  Each annual Five Thousand (5,000)-share option shall vest, and the
Corporation's repurchase right shall lapse, upon the Optionee's completion of
one (1) year of Board service measured from the grant date.

          E.  Cessation of Board Service.  The following provisions shall govern
              --------------------------
the exercise of any options outstanding at the time of the Optionee's cessation
of Board service:

             (i)   Any option outstanding at the time of the Optionee's
     cessation of Board service for any reason shall remain exercisable for a
     twelve

                                       13
<PAGE>

     (12)-month period following the date of such cessation of Board service,
     but in no event shall such option be exercisable after the expiration of
     the option term.

             (ii)  Any option exercisable in whole or in part by the Optionee at
     the time of death may be subsequently exercised by his or her Beneficiary.

             (iii) Following the Optionee's cessation of Board service, the
     option may not be exercised in the aggregate for more than the number of
     shares in which the Optionee was vested on the date of such cessation of
     Board service. Upon the expiration of the applicable exercise period or (if
     earlier) upon the expiration of the option term, the option shall terminate
     and cease to be outstanding for any vested shares for which the option has
     not been exercised. However, the option shall, immediately upon the
     Optionee's cessation of Board service, terminate and cease to be
     outstanding for any and all shares in which the Optionee is not otherwise
     at that time vested.

             (iv)  However, should the Optionee cease to serve as a Board member
     by reason of death or Permanent Disability, then all shares at the time
     subject to the option shall immediately vest so that such option may,
     during the twelve (12)-month exercise period following such cessation of
     Board service, be exercised for all or any portion of those shares as
     fully-vested shares of Common Stock.

     II.  CHANGE IN CONTROL/HOSTILE TAKE-OVER

          A.  In the event of any Change in Control or Hostile Take-Over, the
shares of Common Stock at the time subject to each outstanding option but not
otherwise vested shall automatically vest in full so that each such option may,
immediately prior to the effective date of such Change in Control the Hostile
Take-Over, be exercised for all or any portion of those shares as fully-vested
shares of Common Stock. Each such option accelerated in connection with a Change
in Control shall terminate upon the Change in Control, except to the extent
assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise continued
in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control. Each
such option accelerated in connection with a Hostile Take-Over shall remain
exercisable until the expiration or sooner termination of the option term.

          B.  All outstanding repurchase rights shall also terminate
automatically, and the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights
shall immediately vest in full, in the event of any Change in Control or Hostile
Take-Over.

          C.  Upon the occurrence of a Hostile Take-Over, the Optionee shall
have a thirty (30)-day period in which to surrender to the Corporation each of
his or her outstanding options. The Optionee shall in return be entitled to a
cash distribution from the Corporation in an amount equal to the excess of (i)
the Option Surrender Value of the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to
each surrendered option (whether or not the Optionee is otherwise at the time
vested in those shares) over (ii) the aggregate exercise price payable for such
shares. Such cash

                                       14
<PAGE>

distribution shall be paid within five (5) days following the surrender of the
option to the Corporation.

          D.  Each option which is assumed in connection with a Change in
Control shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to the number and class of
securities which would have been issuable to the Optionee in consummation of
such Change in Control had the option been exercised immediately prior to such
Change in Control. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the exercise
price payable per share under each outstanding option, provided the aggregate
                                                       --------
exercise price payable for such securities shall remain the same.

     III. REMAINING TERMS

          The remaining terms of each option granted under the Automatic Option
Grant Program shall be the same as the terms in effect for options made under
the Discretionary Option Grant Program.

                                 MISCELLANEOUS
                                 -------------

     I.   NO IMPAIRMENT OF AUTHORITY

          Outstanding awards shall in no way affect the right of the Corporation
to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business
structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all
or any part of its business or assets.

     II.  FINANCING

          The Plan Administrator may permit any Optionee or Participant to pay
the option exercise price under the Discretionary Option Grant Program or the
purchase price of shares issued under the Stock Issuance Program by delivering a
full-recourse, interest bearing promissory note payable in one or more
installments.  The terms of any such promissory note (including the interest
rate and the terms of repayment) shall be established by the Plan Administrator
in its sole discretion.  In no event may the maximum credit available to the
Optionee or Participant exceed the sum of (i) the aggregate option exercise
price or purchase price payable for the purchased shares plus (ii) any Federal,
state and local income and employment tax liability incurred by the Optionee or
the Participant in connection with the option exercise or share purchase.

     III. TAX WITHHOLDING

          A.  The Corporation's obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock
upon the exercise of options or the issuance or vesting of such shares under the
Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable Federal, state and
local income and employment tax withholding requirements.

          B.  The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, provide any or all
holders of Non-Statutory Options or unvested shares of Common Stock under the
Plan with the right to use shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of all or part
of the Taxes incurred by such holders in connection with the exercise of their
options or the vesting of their shares. Such right may be provided to any such
holder in either or both of the following formats:

              Stock Withholding:  The election to have the Corporation withhold,
              ----------------
from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon the exercise of such
Non-Statutory Option or the vesting of such shares, a portion of those shares
with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the Taxes (not to
exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the holder.

              Stock Delivery:  The election to deliver to the Corporation, at
              --------------
the time the Non-Statutory Option is exercised or the shares vest, one or more
shares of Common Stock previously acquired by such holder (other than in
connection with the option exercise or share vesting triggering the Taxes) with
an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the Taxes (not to
exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the holder.

                                       16

     IV.  EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF THE PLAN

          A.  The Plan shall become effective upon approval of the 1999 Annual
Stockholders Meeting.

          B.  The Plan shall serve as the successor to the Predecessor Plans,
and no further options or direct stock issuances shall be made under the
Predecessor Plan after Plan Effective Date. All options outstanding under the
Predecessor Plans on the Plan Effective Date shall be incorporated into the Plan
at that time and shall be treated as outstanding options under the Plan.
However, each outstanding option so incorporated shall continue to be governed
solely by the terms of the documents evidencing such option, and no provision of
the Plan shall be deemed to affect or otherwise modify the rights or obligations
of the holders of such incorporated options with respect to their acquisition of
shares of Common Stock.

          C.  One or more provisions of the Plan, including (without limitation)
the option/vesting acceleration provisions of Article Two relating to Changes in
Control, may, in the Plan Administrator's discretion, be extended to one or more
options incorporated from the Predecessor Plan which do not otherwise contain
such provisions.

          D.  The Plan shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) April 20, 2009
                                                --------
(ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the Plan shall
have been issued as fully-vested shares or (iii) the termination of all
outstanding options in connection with a Change in Control. Upon such plan
termination, all outstanding options and unvested stock issuances shall
thereafter continue to have force and effect in accordance with the provisions
of the documents evidencing such grants or issuances.

     V.  AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

          A.  The Board shall have complete and exclusive power and authority to
amend or modify the Plan in any or all respects. However, no such amendment or
modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations with respect to
stock options or unvested stock issuances at the time outstanding under the Plan
unless the Optionee or the Participant consents to such amendment or
modification. In addition, certain amendments may require stockholder approval
pursuant to applicable laws or regulations.

          B.  Options to purchase shares of Common Stock may be granted under
the Discretionary Option Grant Program and shares of Common Stock may be issued
under the Stock Issuance Program that are in each instance in excess of the
number of shares then available for issuance under the Plan, provided any excess
shares actually issued under those programs shall be held in escrow until there
is obtained stockholder approval of an amendment sufficiently increasing the
number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan. If such
stockholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months after the date
the first such excess issuances are made, then (i) any unexercised options
granted on the basis of such excess shares shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding and (ii) the Corporation shall promptly refund to the Optionees and
the Participants the exercise or purchase price paid for any excess shares
issued under the Plan and held in escrow, together with interest (at the
applicable Short Term

                                       17
<PAGE>

Federal Rate) for the period the shares were held in escrow, and such shares
shall thereupon be automatically cancelled and cease to be outstanding.

     VI.   USE OF PROCEEDS

          Any cash proceeds received by the Corporation from the sale of shares
of Common Stock under the Plan shall be used for general corporate purposes.

     VII.  REGULATORY APPROVALS

          A.  The implementation of the Plan, the granting of any stock option
under the Plan and the issuance of any shares of Common Stock (i) upon the
exercise of any granted option or (ii) under the Stock Issuance Program shall be
subject to the Corporation's procurement of all approvals and permits required
by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Plan, the stock options
granted under it and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to it.

          B.  No shares of Common Stock or other assets shall be issued or
delivered under the Plan unless and until there shall have been compliance with
all applicable requirements of Federal and state securities laws, including the
filing and effectiveness of the Form S-8 registration statement for the shares
of Common Stock issuable under the Plan, and all applicable listing requirements
of any stock exchange (or the Nasdaq National Market, if applicable) on which
Common Stock is then listed for trading.

     VIII. NO EMPLOYMENT/SERVICE RIGHTS

          Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee or the Participant
any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or
interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation
(or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining such person) or of the
Optionee or the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each,
to terminate such person's Service at any time for any reason, with or without
cause.

              -----------
implements a beneficiary designation procedure, the person designated by an
Optionee or Participant, pursuant to such procedure, to succeed to such person's
rights under any outstanding awards held by him or her at the time of death.  In
the absence of such designation or procedure, the Beneficiary shall be the
personal representative of the estate of the Optionee or Participant or the
person or persons to whom the award is transferred by will or the laws of
descent and distribution.

terms in the attached Appendix.

     III. STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN

          A.  The stock purchasable under the Plan shall be shares of authorized
but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares of Common Stock
purchased on the open market. The number of shares of Common Stock initially
reserved for issuance over the term of the Plan shall be limited to Five Hundred
Thousand (500,000) shares.

          B.  Should any change be made to the Common Stock by reason of any
stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange
of shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class
without the Corporation's receipt of consideration, appropriate adjustments
shall be made to (i) the maximum number and class of securities issuable under

dilution or enlargement of benefits thereunder.


     IV.  OFFERING PERIODS

          A.  Shares of Common Stock shall be offered for purchase under the
Plan through a series of successive offering periods until such time as (i) the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan
shall have been purchased or (ii) the Plan shall have been sooner terminated.

          B.  Each offering period shall be of such duration (not to exceed
twenty-four (24) months) as determined by the Plan Administrator prior to the
start date of such offering period. However, the initial offering period shall
commence at the Effective Time and terminate on the last business day in July
2001. The next offering period shall commence on the first business day in
August 2001, and subsequent offering periods shall commence as designated by
the Plan Administrator.

          C.  Each offering period shall be comprised of a series of one or more
successive Purchase Intervals. Purchase Intervals shall run from the first
business day in February to the last business day in July each year and from the
first business day in August each year to the last business day in January in
the following year. However, the first Purchase Interval in effect under the
initial offering period shall commence at the Effective Time and terminate on
the last business day in April 2000.

          D.  Should the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on any
Purchase Date within an offering period be less than the Fair Market Value per
share of Common Stock on the start date of that offering period, then that
offering period shall automatically terminate immediately after the purchase of
shares of Common Stock on such Purchase Date, and a new offering period shall
commence on the next business day following such Purchase Date. The new offering
period shall have a duration of twenty (24) months, unless a shorter duration is
established by the Plan Administrator within five (5) business days following
the start date of that offering period.

     V.  ELIGIBILITY

          A.  Each individual who is an Eligible Employee on the start date of
any offering period under the Plan may enter that offering period on such start
date or on any subsequent Semi-Annual Entry Date within that offering period,
provided he or she remains an Eligible Employee.

          B.  Each individual who first becomes an Eligible Employee after the
start date of an offering period may enter that offering period on any
subsequent Semi-Annual Entry Date within that offering period on which he or she
is an Eligible Employee.

                                       2
<PAGE>

          C.  The date an individual enters an offering period shall be
designated his or her Entry Date for purposes of that offering period.

          D.  To participate in the Plan for a particular offering period, the
Eligible Employee must complete the enrollment forms prescribed by the Plan
Administrator (including a stock purchase agreement and a payroll deduction
authorization) and file such forms with the Plan Administrator (or its
designate) on or before his or her scheduled Entry Date.

     VI.  PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS

          A.  The payroll deduction authorized by the Participant for purposes
of acquiring shares of Common Stock during an offering period may be any
multiple of one percent (1%) of the Cash Earnings paid to the Participant during
each Purchase Interval within that offering period, up to a maximum of fifteen
percent (15%). The deduction rate so authorized shall continue in effect
throughout the offering period, except to the extent such rate is changed in
accordance with the following guidelines:

             (i)  The Participant may, at any time during the offering period,
     reduce his or her rate of payroll deduction to become effective as soon as
     possible after filing the appropriate form with the Plan Administrator. The
     Participant may not, however, effect more than one (1) such reduction per
     Purchase Interval.

             (ii) The Participant may, prior to the commencement of any new
     Purchase Interval within the offering period, increase the rate of his or
     her payroll deduction by filing the appropriate form with the Plan
     Administrator. The new rate (which may not exceed the fifteen percent (15%)
     maximum) shall become effective on the start date of the first Purchase
     Interval following the filing of such form.

          B.  Payroll deductions shall begin on the first pay day
administratively feasible following the Participant's Entry Date into the
offering period and shall (unless sooner terminated by the Participant) continue
through the pay day ending with or immediately prior to the last day of that
offering period. The amounts so collected shall be credited to the Participant's
book account under the Plan, but no interest shall be paid on the balance from
time to time outstanding in such account. The amounts collected from the
Participant shall not be required to be held in any segregated account or trust
fund and may be commingled with the general assets of the Corporation and used
for general corporate purposes.

          C.  Payroll deductions shall automatically cease upon the termination
of the Participant's purchase right in accordance with the provisions of the
Plan.

          D.  The Participant's acquisition of Common Stock under the Plan on
any Purchase Date shall neither limit nor require the Participant's acquisition
of Common Stock on any subsequent Purchase Date, whether within the same or a
different offering period.

     VII. PURCHASE RIGHTS

          A.  Grant of Purchase Rights. A Participant shall be granted a
              ------------------------
separate purchase right for each offering period in which he or she
participates. The purchase right shall be granted on the Participant's Entry
Date into the offering period and shall provide the Participant with the right
to purchase shares of Common Stock, in a series of successive installments over
the remainder of such offering period, upon the terms set forth below. The
Participant shall execute a stock purchase agreement embodying such terms and
such other provisions (not inconsistent with the Plan) as the Plan Administrator
may deem advisable.

          Under no circumstances shall purchase rights be granted under the Plan
to any Eligible Employee if such individual would, immediately after the grant,
own (within the meaning of Code Section 424(d)) or hold outstanding options or
other rights to purchase, stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the
total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Corporation
or any Corporate Affiliate.

          B.  Exercise of the Purchase Right. Each purchase right shall be
              ------------------------------
automatically exercised in installments on each successive Purchase Date within
the offering period, and shares of Common Stock shall accordingly be purchased
on behalf of each Participant on each such Purchase Date. The purchase shall be
effected by applying the Participant's payroll deductions for the Purchase
Interval ending on such Purchase Date to the purchase of whole shares of Common
Stock at the purchase price in effect for the Participant for that Purchase
Date.

          C.  Purchase Price.  The purchase price per share at which Common
              --------------
Stock will be purchased on the Participant's behalf on each Purchase Date within
the offering period shall be equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the lower of
(i) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Participant's Entry
Date into that offering period or (ii) the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock on that Purchase Date.

          D.  Number of Purchasable Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock
              ----------------------------
purchasable by a Participant on each Purchase Date during the offering period
shall be the number of whole shares obtained by dividing the amount collected
from the Participant through payroll deductions during the Purchase Interval
ending with that Purchase Date by the purchase price in effect for the
Participant for that Purchase Date.  However, the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock purchasable per Participant on any one Purchase Date shall not
exceed 1,300 shares, subject to periodic adjustments in the event of certain
changes in the Corporation's capitalization.  In addition, the maximum number of
shares of Common Stock purchasable in total by all Participants on any one
Purchase Date shall not exceed 125,000 shares, subject to periodic adjustments
in the event of certain changes in the Corporation's capitalization.  However,
the Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority, exercisable prior
to the start of any offering period under the Plan, to increase or decrease the
limitations to be in effect for the number of shares purchasable per Participant
and in total by all Participants on each Purchase Date during that offering
period.

                                       4
<PAGE>

          E.  Excess Payroll Deductions.  Any payroll deductions not applied to
              -------------------------
the purchase of shares of Common Stock on any Purchase Date because they are not
sufficient to purchase a whole share of Common Stock shall be held for the
purchase of Common Stock on the next Purchase Date. However, any payroll
deductions not applied to the purchase of Common Stock by reason of the
limitation on the maximum number of shares purchasable per Participant or in
total by all Participants on the Purchase Date shall be promptly refunded.

          F.  Termination of Purchase Right.  The following provisions shall
              -----------------------------
govern the termination of outstanding purchase rights:

             (i)   A Participant may, at any time prior to the next scheduled
     Purchase Date in the offering period, terminate his or her outstanding
     purchase right by filing the appropriate form with the Plan Administrator
     (or its designate), and no further payroll deductions shall be collected
     from the Participant with respect to the terminated purchase right. Any
     payroll deductions collected during the Purchase Interval in which such
     termination occurs shall, at the Participant's election, be immediately
     refunded or held for the purchase of shares on the next Purchase Date. If
     no such election is made at the time such purchase right is terminated,
     then the payroll deductions collected with respect to the terminated right
     shall be refunded as soon as possible.

             (ii)  The termination of such purchase right shall be irrevocable,
     and the Participant may not subsequently rejoin the offering period for
     which the terminated purchase right was granted. In order to resume
     participation in any subsequent offering period, such individual must re-
     enroll in the Plan (by making a timely filing of the prescribed enrollment
     forms) on or before his or her scheduled Entry Date into that offering
     period.

             (iii) Should the Participant cease to remain an Eligible Employee
     for any reason (including death, disability or change in status) while his
     or her purchase right remains outstanding, then that purchase right shall
     immediately terminate, and all of the Participant's payroll deductions for
     the Purchase Interval in which the purchase right so terminates shall be
     immediately refunded. However, should the Participant cease to remain in
     active service by reason of an approved unpaid leave of absence, then the
     Participant shall have the right, exercisable up until the last business
     day of the Purchase Interval in which such leave commences, to (a) withdraw
     all the payroll deductions collected to date on his or her behalf for that
     Purchase Interval or (b) have such funds held for the purchase of shares on
     his or her behalf on the next scheduled Purchase Date. In no event,
     however, shall any further payroll deductions be collected on the
     Participant's behalf during such leave. Upon the Participant's return to
     active service (x) within ninety (90) days following the commencement of
     such leave or (y) prior to the expiration of any longer period for which
     such Participant's right to reemployment with the Corporation is guaranteed
     by statute or contract, his or her payroll deductions under the Plan shall
     automatically resume at the rate in

                                       5
<PAGE>

     effect at the time the leave began, unless the Participant withdraws from
     the Plan prior to his or her return. An individual who returns to active
     employment following a leave of absence which exceeds in duration the
     applicable (x) or (y) time period will be treated as a new Employee for
     purposes of subsequent participation in the Plan and must accordingly re-
     enroll in the Plan (by making a timely filing of the prescribed enrollment
     forms) on or before his or her scheduled Entry Date into the offering
     period.

          G.  Change in Control.  Each outstanding purchase right shall
              -----------------
automatically be exercised, immediately prior to the effective date of any
Change in Control, by applying the payroll deductions of each Participant for
the Purchase Interval in which such Change in Control occurs to the purchase of
whole shares of Common Stock at a purchase price per share equal to eighty-five
percent (85%) of the lower of (i) the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock on the Participant's Entry Date into the offering period in which such
Change in Control occurs or (ii) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock
immediately prior to the effective date of such Change in Control. However, the
applicable limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable per
Participant shall continue to apply to any such purchase, but not the limitation
applicable to the maximum number of shares of Common Stock purchasable in total
by all Participants on any one Purchase Date.

          The Corporation shall use its best efforts to provide at least ten
(10)-days prior written notice of the occurrence of any Change in Control, and
Participants shall, following the receipt of such notice, have the right to
terminate their outstanding purchase rights prior to the effective date of the
Change in Control.

          H.  Proration of Purchase Rights.  Should the total number of shares
              ----------------------------
of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to outstanding purchase rights on any
particular date exceed the number of shares then available for issuance under
the Plan, the Plan Administrator shall make a pro-rata allocation of the
available shares on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis, and the payroll
deductions of each Participant, to the extent in excess of the aggregate
purchase price payable for the Common Stock pro-rated to such individual, shall
be refunded.

          I.  Assignability.  The purchase right shall be exercisable only by
              -------------
the Participant and shall not be assignable or transferable by the Participant.

          J.  Stockholder Rights.  A Participant shall have no stockholder
              ------------------
rights with respect to the shares subject to his or her outstanding purchase
right until the shares are purchased on the Participant's behalf in accordance
with the provisions of the Plan and the Participant has become a holder of
record of the purchased shares.

     VIII. ACCRUAL LIMITATIONS

          A.  No Participant shall be entitled to accrue rights to acquire
Common Stock pursuant to any purchase right outstanding under this Plan if and
to the extent such accrual, when aggregated with (i) rights to purchase Common
Stock accrued under any other purchase right granted under this Plan and (ii)
similar rights accrued under other employee stock purchase plans

                                       6
<PAGE>

(within the meaning of Code Section 423)) of the Corporation or any Corporate
Affiliate, would otherwise permit such Participant to purchase more than Twenty-
Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) worth of stock of the Corporation or any
Corporate Affiliate (determined on the basis of the Fair Market Value per share
on the date or dates such rights are granted) for each calendar year such rights
are at any time outstanding.

          B.  For purposes of applying such accrual limitations to the purchase
rights granted under the Plan, the following provisions shall be in effect:

             (i)   The right to acquire Common Stock under each outstanding
     purchase right shall accrue in a series of installments on each successive
     Purchase Date during the offering period on which such right remains
     outstanding.

             (ii)  No right to acquire Common Stock under any outstanding
     purchase right shall accrue to the extent the Participant has already
     accrued in the same calendar year the right to acquire Common Stock under
     one or more other purchase rights at a rate equal to Twenty-Five Thousand
     Dollars ($25,000.00) worth of Common Stock (determined on the basis of the
     Fair Market Value per share on the date or dates of grant) for each
     calendar year such rights were at any time outstanding.

          C.  If by reason of such accrual limitations, any purchase right of a
Participant does not accrue for a particular Purchase Interval, then the payroll
deductions which the Participant made during that Purchase Interval with respect
to such purchase right shall be promptly refunded.

          D.  In the event there is any conflict between the provisions of this
Article and one or more provisions of the Plan or any instrument issued
thereunder, the provisions of this Article shall be controlling.

     IX.  EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF THE PLAN

          A.  The Plan was adopted by the Board in April, 1999 and shall become
effective at the Effective Time, provided no purchase rights granted under the
Plan shall be exercised, and no shares of Common Stock shall be issued
hereunder, until (i) the Plan shall have been approved by the stockholders of
the Corporation and (ii) the Corporation shall have complied with all applicable
requirements of the 1933 Act (including the registration of the shares of Common
Stock issuable under the Plan on a Form S-8 registration statement filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission), all applicable listing requirements of
any stock exchange (or the Nasdaq National Market, if applicable) on which the
Common Stock is listed for trading and all other applicable requirements
established by law or regulation. In the event such stockholder approval is not
obtained, or such compliance is not effected, within twelve (12) months after
the date on which the Plan is adopted by the Board, the Plan shall terminate and
have no further force or effect, and all sums collected from Participants during
the initial offering period hereunder shall be refunded.

                                       7
<PAGE>

          B.  Unless sooner terminated by the Board, the Plan shall terminate
upon the earliest of (i) the last business day in July 2009, (ii) the date on
which all shares available for issuance under the Plan shall have been sold
pursuant to purchase rights exercised under the Plan or (iii) the date on which
all purchase rights are exercised in connection with a Change in Control. No
further purchase rights shall be granted or exercised, and no further payroll
deductions shall be collected, under the Plan following such termination.

     X.  AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

          A.  The Board may alter, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any
time to become effective immediately following the close of any Purchase
Interval. However, the Plan may be amended or terminated immediately upon Board
action, if and to the extent necessary to assure that the Corporation will not
recognize, for financial reporting purposes, any compensation expense in
connection with the shares of Common Stock offered for purchase under the Plan,
should the financial accounting rules applicable to the Plan at the Effective
Time be subsequently revised so as to require the Corporation to recognize
compensation expense in the absence of such amendment or termination.

          B.  In no event may the Board effect any of the following amendments
or revisions to the Plan without the approval of the Corporation's stockholders:
(i) increase the number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan,
except for permissible adjustments in the event of certain changes in the
Corporation's capitalization, (ii) alter the purchase price formula so as to
reduce the purchase price payable for the shares of Common Stock purchasable
under the Plan or (iii) modify the eligibility requirements for participation in
the Plan.

     XI.  GENERAL PROVISIONS

          A.  All costs and expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan
shall be paid by the Corporation; however, each Plan Participant shall bear all
costs and expenses incurred by such individual in the sale or other disposition
of any shares purchased under the Plan.

          B.  Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to
continue in the employ of the Corporation or any Corporate Affiliate for any
period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way
the rights of the Corporation (or any Corporate Affiliate employing such person)
or of the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to
terminate such person's employment at any time for any reason, with or without
cause.

          C.  The provisions of the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the
State of California without resort to that State's conflict-of-laws rules.

          additional Option Shares would have become exercisable if the Optionee
          were still employed or rendering services during such three-month or

Company, may be made without violating the registration provisions of the Act),

shares and the like or dividends payable in shares of the company's common
Stock, an equitable adjustment shall be made by the Committee in the aggregate
number of Option Shares an din the Option Price. Unless the Committee makes
other provisions for the equitable settlement of outstanding options, if the

administrators of the Optionee's estate or by any person who has acquired such
Options directly from the Optionee by beneficiary designation, bequest or
inheritance, but only to the extent that such Options had become exercisable
before the Optionee's death or became exercisable as a result of the death.  The
balance of such Options shall lapse when the Optionee dies.

                                       5

conditions, rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal and other transfer

to any restrictions that may apply to holders of Shares generally. Any right to
repurchase an Optionee's Shares at the original Exercise Price upon termination
of the Optionee's Service shall lapse at least as rapidly as the schedule set
forth in Subsection (e) above. Any such repurchase right may e exercised only
within 90 days after the termination of the Optionee's Service for cash or for
cancellation of indebtedness incurred in purchasing the Shares. The repurchase
right shall lapse and vesting of all Shares shall automatically accelerate if
(i) the Company is subject to a Change in Control, (ii) the repurchase right is
not assigned to a surviving entity that employs the Optionee immediately after
the Change in Control and (iii) the applicable Stock Option Agreement does not

or (iii) any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any
class. any issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or
securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall not affect, and
no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or
Exercise Price of Shares subject to an Option. The grant of an Option pursuant
to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to
make adjustment, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital of
business structure, to merge or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidated, sell or
transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

market on which the Company's securities may then be traded.

period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way
the rights of the Company (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining
the Purchaser or Optionee) or of the Purchaser or Optionee, which rights are
hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate his or her Service at any time

                       STOCK OPTION ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT,

                               WAIVER AND RELEASE

          This Stock Option Assumption Agreement, Waiver and Release (the
"Agreement and Release") is made and entered into by and between RAVISENT
- ----------------------
Technologies Inc., Teknema, Inc. and ________________ ("Employee") as of the
                                                        --------
Effective Time, as such term is defined in the Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization dated as of October 8, 1999 (the "Merger Agreement") by and among
                                                 ----------------
Acquiror, Merger Sub and Target ("Target").  Capitalized terms used in this
                                  ------
Agreement and Release without definition have the respective meanings assigned
to them in the Merger Agreement.

                                    Recitals
                                    --------

          Employee holds certain vested and unvested options to acquire shares
of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of Target ("Target Options"), as set
                                                        --------------
forth in Annex I hereto (the "Employee Options").  The Merger Agreement provides
         -------              ----------------
that at the Effective Time, Target Options which are outstanding and immediately
prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed and converted into an option to
acquire the applicable number of shares or fraction of a share of common stock,
par value $.001, of Acquiror (the "Acquiror Common Stock") subject to the escrow
                                   ---------------------
of ten percent (10%) of the Target Options as provided in the Merger Agreement.
In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that, immediately prior to the
Effective Time, (i) each Assumed Option (as defined herein) (other than Assumed
Options held by ______________, ______________, __________________ and _____
_____ (each a "Principal" and collectively the "Principals")) shall be credited
for an additional nine months of vesting, effective as of the Effective Time;
(ii) the vesting schedule applicable to the Principals' Assumed Options which
are unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be modified so that
(A) seventy-five percent (75%) of such unvested Assumed Options held by the
Principals shall become vested, and the right of repurchase with respect to
seventy-five percent (75%) of such unvested Assumed Options held by the
Principals shall lapse, and (B) twenty-five percent (25%) of such Assumed
Options held by the Principals shall not be exercisable or vest, and the right
of repurchase applicable to twenty-five percent (25%) of such Assumed Options
held by the Principals shall not lapse, either in whole or in part, until the
third anniversary of the Effective Time; and (iii) each Principal shall be
required to enter into an agreement restricting his ability to sell Acquiror
Common Stock for a two year period after the Effective Time, subject to certain
exceptions.  It is a condition to the obligations of Acquiror to complete the
Merger that each Target Option holder shall have entered into, executed and
delivered an Agreement and Release acknowledging and agreeing to the treatment
of Target Options prescribed by the Merger Agreement and releasing and waiving
any and all claims in connection with the Target Options, in form reasonably
acceptable to Acquiror.

          Therefore, Acquiror, Target and Employee hereby mutually agree as
follows:

                                   Agreement
                                   ---------

     Section 1.  Assumption of Employee Options.
                 ------------------------------
<PAGE>

     (a) Assumption.  On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
         ----------
this Agreement and Release, and subject (as a condition precedent) to the
execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement and Release by Employee
and the occurrence of the Effective Time of the Merger pursuant to the Merger
Agreement, Acquiror hereby assumes the Employee Options set forth in Annex I
                                                                     -------
hereto, such assumption to be effective as of the Effective Time of the Merger.
Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Assumed Option shall continue
to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the
Target Stock Option Plan (if applicable) and the applicable stock option
agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, and except that:

          (i) each Assumed Option will be exercisable for that number of whole
     shares of Acquiror Common Stock equal to the product of the number of
     shares of Target Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such
     Assumed Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the
     Option Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and rounded down
     to the nearest whole number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock;

          (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Acquiror Common
     Stock issuable upon exercise of each Assumed Option will be equal to the
     quotient obtained by dividing the exercise price per share of Target Common
     Stock at which such Assumed Option was exercisable immediately prior to the
     Effective Time by the Option Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Merger
     Agreement), rounded up to the nearest whole cent; and

     (b) Escrow.  Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that ten percent (10%)
         ------
of the Assumed Options shall be held in escrow pursuant to the Merger Agreement
and the Escrow Agreement entered into in connection therewith for a one year
period following the Effective Time; and Stathis Kassimidis shall act as the
agent for Employee with respect to the Assumed Options held in escrow.

     (c) Status as Incentive Stock Options.  Employee hereby acknowledges and
         ---------------------------------
agrees that, although it was the intention of Acquiror and Target that the
Assumed Options qualify, to the maximum extent permissible, following the
Effective Time as incentive stock options as defined in Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code to the extent such options qualified as incentive stock
options prior to the Effective Time, the Target Options held by Employee may not
qualify as incentive stock options and may instead be treated as nonqualifying
options, which are subject to less favorable tax treatment than incentive stock
options.

     Section 2.  Certain Further Acknowledgments.
                 -------------------------------

     (a) Assumption of Other Target Options.  Employee hereby acknowledges and
         ----------------------------------
agrees that, pursuant to Section 1.6(d) of the Merger Agreement, at the
Effective Time, the Target 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "Target Stock Option
                                                        -------------------
Plan") and all Target Options outstanding as of the Effective Time which are
held by holders who have delivered a Stock Option Assumption Agreement, Waiver
and Release in the form of this Agreement and Release shall be assumed by
Acquiror (each such Target Option an "Assumed Option" and collectively the
                                      --------------
"Assumed Options").
- ----------------

                                       2
<PAGE>

     (b) Treatment of Certain Target Options.  Employee acknowledges and agrees
         -----------------------------------
That each Assumed Option (other than Assumed Options held by _________________,
__________________, ________________ and ___________ (each a "Principal" and
collectively the "Principals")) has heretofore been credited by Teknema for an
additional nine months of vesting, effective as of the Effective Time, and that
no additional vesting is granted by this Agreement and Release.  Employee
further acknowledges and agrees that (i) the vesting schedule applicable to the
Principals' Assumed Options which are unvested immediately prior to the
Effective Time has been modified by Teknema so that (A) seventy-five percent
(75%) of such unvested Assumed Options held by the Principals have become
vested, and the right of repurchase with respect to seventy-five percent (75%)
of such unvested Assumed Options held by the Principals has lapsed (in each case
effective as of the Effective Time) and (B) twenty-five percent (25%) of such
Assumed Options held by the Principals shall not be exercisable or vest, and the
right of repurchase applicable to twenty-five percent (25%) of such Assumed
Options held by the Principals shall not lapse, either in whole or in part,
until the third anniversary of the Effective Time, and (ii) each Principal is
required by the Merger Agreement to enter into an agreement restricting his
ability to sell Acquiror Common Stock for a two year period after the Effective
Time, subject to certain exceptions.

     Section 3.  Payment of Taxes.  Employee shall be solely and fully
                 ----------------

Employee's Assumed Options and the grant of additional vesting described in

all claims, actions and causes of action, whether now known or unknown, which
Employee now has, or at any other time had, or shall or may have against the

thereof as an incentive stock option.

          (a) Employee acknowledges that he has read Section 1542 of the Civil
Code of the State of California, which states in full that:

          "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does
          not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the
          release, which if known by him must have materially affected his
          settlement with the debtor."

          (b) Employee waives any rights that he has or may have under Section
1542 to the full extent that he may lawfully waive such rights pertaining to
this release of claims, and affirms that he is releasing all known and unknown
claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and Release that he has
or may have against the parties listed above.

          (c) Employee understands that he should consult with an attorney prior
to signing this Agreement and Release and that he is giving up legal claims he

<PAGE>

against the parties released above by signing this Agreement and Release.

willingly and voluntarily in exchange for the consideration described herein.

enforceability of this Agreement and Release or the alleged breach thereof shall
be submitted by the parties to binding arbitration in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
or elsewhere by mutual agreement.  The arbitration shall be conducted by a three
(3) person panel, selected as follows:  Acquiror and Employee shall each select
one arbitrator, and the two (2) selected arbitrators shall select in their sole
discretion a third arbitrator. The arbitration procedure shall be governed by
the arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association.  All costs and
expenses of arbitration (or litigation to enforce such arbitration), including
but not limited to attorneys fees and other costs reasonably incurred by
Employee, shall be paid by party which does not prevail.  Judgment may be
entered on the award of the arbitration in any court having jurisdiction.

                 --------------
Release shall be interpreted in accordance with and governed by the laws of the
