OPTION GRANTS IN 1998
 
     The following table sets forth further information regarding the individual
grants of stock options pursuant to VERITAS' stock option plans during fiscal
1998 to each of the VERITAS named officers. The table illustrates the
hypothetical gains or "option spreads" that would exist for the options at the
end of the ten-year term of the option based on assumed annualized rates of
compound stock price appreciation of 5% and 10% from the dates the options were
granted to the end of the term. The 5% and 10% assumed rates of annual compound
stock price appreciation are mandated by rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and do not represent VERITAS' estimate or projection of future common
stock prices. Actual gains, if any, on option exercises will depend on the
future performance of VERITAS' common stock and overall market conditions. The
potential realizable values shown in this table may never be achieved.

     The exercise price of all stock options was equal to the fair market value
of VERITAS' common stock on the date of grant. Stock options vest over four
years at the rate of 1/48 per month, such vesting to accelerate in the event of
an acquisition or merger of VERITAS. The options were granted for a term of ten
years, subject to earlier termination upon termination of employment. Share and
per share data has been restated to give retroactive effect to a 3-for-2 stock
split in the form of a stock dividend in May 1998.
 
AGGREGATE OPTION EXERCISES IN 1998 AND FISCAL YEAR-END OPTION VALUES
 
     The following table sets forth certain information concerning the exercise
of stock options during 1998 by each of the VERITAS named officers, including
the aggregate amount of gains on the date of exercise. In addition, the table
includes the number of shares covered by both vested and unvested stock options
held on December 31, 1998 by each of the VERITAS named officers. Also reported
are values for "in the money" stock options that represent the positive spread
between the respective exercise prices of outstanding stock options and the fair
market value of the VERITAS common stock as of
 
                                        6

for option exercises is the aggregate fair market value of VERITAS common stock
on the date of exercise less the exercise price. The valuations shown above for
unexercised in-the-money options are based on the difference between the option
exercise price and the fair market value of the stock on December 31, 1998.
These values have not been, and may never be, realized.
