                                          ==========             =============
</TABLE>

         Accounts  receivable  consist  principally of amounts due from OEMs and
reseller  customers for licensing fees,  royalties and direct sales of products.
OEM  customer  payment  terms  typically  are one year in  duration  and require
payments to be made in quarterly  installments.  At June 30, 1999,  OEM accounts
receivable  amounts  not  yet  due  were  $64,000,  equal  to 17% of  total  OEM
receivables compared to $1,000, equal to 6% of total OEM receivables at December
31, 1998. Reseller payment terms typically are standardized and similar to those
given software  distributors.  At June 30, 1999,  reseller  accounts  receivable
amounts not yet due were  $91,000,  equal to 31% of total  reseller  receivables
compared to $257,000, equal to 63% at December 31, 1998.

         The  Company's  primary  credit  concentrations  involve  domestic  and
foreign OEM and reseller  customers.  Foreign customers are primarily located in
Western Europe, Taiwan, Singapore, Korea and Japan. Domestic customers comprised
$356,000  of  accounts  receivable  at June 30,  1999,  compared  to $415,000 at
December 31, 1998. Foreign customers comprised $16,000 of accounts receivable at
June 30, 1999 compared to $13,000 at December 31, 1998.

Income Taxes

         No income  taxes were payable at June 30,  1999,  due to the  Company's
year-to-date  loss. The Company had Federal net operating loss  carryforwards at
December 31, 1998 of  approximately  $26.1  million that may reduce taxes due in
future  periods  and expire  beginning  in 2008.  In certain  circumstances,  as
specified in the Internal Revenue Code, a 50% or more change in ownership of the
Company  during  any  three-year  period  would  result  in  limitations  on the
Company's ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforward.  Such a change
may have  occurred as defined in Section 382 of the Internal  Revenue  Code.  An
investor who owns $3,200,000 in principal  amount of convertible  debentures and
associated  warrants,  has the  right to  purchase  an  additional  $800,000  of
convertible  debentures  in 1999.  If this  investor  were to  exercise  all its
warrants and convert all the debt it holds and has a right to acquire,  a change
in control of the Company would result.

Subsequent Events

On July 14, 1999 the Company entered into  Subscription and Registration  Rights
Agreements  to sell  781,250  shares  of the  Company's  common  stock  to a new
investor for total consideration of $1,000,000.  The funds were received on July
14, 1999. As part of the transaction, the Company agreed to pay a finders fee of
$30,000 to an unrelated third party. The finders fee may be paid in cash, common
stock of the Company or some combination of the two.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.

         The  following  discussion  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the
financial  statements  and the notes  thereto  appearing  elsewhere in this Form
10-QSB.

General

   Midisoft, founded in 1986, provides innovative applications and utilities for
the  control  and  enhancement  of sound on  personal  computers.  Over the past
thirteen   years,   the  use  of  hardware  for  sound   creation  has  expanded
dramatically. While sound was initially available on only a small segment of PCs
used mainly by computer hobbyists,  it is now a feature on nearly every computer
that ships from every system manufacturer.  Emergence of the Internet has fueled
this  expansion  by  permitting  global  distribution  of music and other  audio
embellished communication, which web-based businesses increasingly desire to use
in creating compelling online experiences.

Midisoft is pursuing a strategy focused on two groups which share a desire for a
compelling "musical experience:" (i) those who seek an engaging music listening
experience  from their PC  desktop,  and (ii)  those who  desire to create  this
musical  experience  for others to enjoy.  For example,  in the first quarter of
1999, the Company completed  engineering that customized its Desktop Sheet Music
product  for the  Christian  music  market.  This  customized  version  features
functionality  tailored to the needs of music  pastors and directors who require
numerous  pages of easily  modified  sheet  music  each week for use by  soloist
performers or choirs.  In addition,  this product  contains a large selection of
hymns,  which can be  transposed  and modified  with the  Company's  proprietary
software  to fit  particular  voices  of  the  choir  and  individual  parts  of
accompanying instruments.

         The Company  believes that it has identified  other groups which desire
compelling  online  musical  experiences,  and will benefit  from the  Company's
expertise  in music  creation  and  Internet-centric  audio and music  delivery.
Development of these products is in the planning stages.

         Midisoft's  strategy is based on its belief that the Internet  provides
the ideal  platform  for  promoting,  marketing  and  selling  music and related
products and  services.  For example,  MP3, the file format for  compression  of
audio files,  is one of the most frequently  searched terms on leading  Internet
search engines,  according to Searchterms.com.  Jupiter Communications estimates
music  downloads  and other  music  sales will reach $1.4  billion by 2002.  The
Company is seeking to position its Internet  products to exploit  these  trends.
For  example,  Internet  Media  Player is a candidate  for  private  labeling on
destination  and portal websites.  The Company has  initiated  arrangements with
content aggregators and providers for download of its Internet Media Player.

         Success of the Company's  strategy  depends in large part on the global
development of an  infrastructure  for providing  Internet  access and services.
Because  global  e-commerce and online  exchange of  information  and compelling
music  content on the Internet and other similar open wide area networks are new
and  evolving,  it is not  possible to  anticipate  with  assurance  whether the
Internet  will prove to be a viable  commercial  marketplace  for the  Company's
technology.  Even  though the  Internet  has  experienced,  and is  expected  to
continue to experience  significant and rapid growth in the number of users  and
amount of traffic,  there can be no assurance  that the Internet  infrastructure
will continue to be able to support the demands  placed on it by this  continued
growth. In addition,  the Internet could lose its viability because of delays in
the  development or adoption of new standards and protocols to handle  increased
levels of  Internet  activity,  or  increased  governmental  regulation.  If the
necessary  infrastructure  or  complementary  services  or  facilities  are  not
developed,  or if the Internet does not become a viable commercial  marketplace,
the  Company's  ability to execute its strategy  could be seriously  limited and
this would  materially  and  adversely  affect its  results  of  operations  and
financial position.

         With these  strategies  the  Company  is  seeking  to enhance  its core
technologies,  in which it has continued to invest over the past 24 months,  and
augment  its retail  distribution  model with more direct  distribution  models,
including  web-based  sound  and  music  delivery.  The  Company  believes  that
successful  execution  of these  strategies  will result in growth and  improved
gross  margins.  Midisoft's  development  efforts  may not  result in the timely
introduction  of new  products,  and these new products may not be  commercially
successful.  Inability  to  successfully  develop  new  products,  delays in the
introduction of these new products, or  lower-than-anticipated  demand for these
products could have a material and adverse effect on the Company's  business and
results of operations.

         The Company  markets its products on a worldwide basis to: (i) original
equipment  manufacturers  (OEMs),  which  "bundle"  one or  more  of  Midisoft's
products  with  their own  products,  (ii)  distributors  and  resellers,  which
directly  supply  the retail  distribution  channel,  (iii) end  users,  catalog
companies,  and businesses;  and (iv) through on-line  Internet sales.  Sales to
software distributors and resellers, together with direct sales, represented 22%
of  revenues  in the three and six  months  ended June 30,  1999,  and OEM sales
represented  78% during the same periods.  International  sales accounted for 4%
and 7% of the Company's  revenues during the three and six months ended June 30,
1999.  During  the three and six  months  ended  June 30,  1999,  two  customers
individually  accounted  for more than 10% of the Company's  total  revenues and
together represented 72% and 64% of net revenues for those periods.

         The principal competitive factors affecting the music creation software
and Internet music distribution markets include product  functionality,  ease of
use,  performance  and  reliability;   customer  service  and  support;  product
availability;  vendor  credibility;  brand awareness;  ability to keep pace with
technological change; and price. Although the Company believes that its products
currently  compete  favorably  with  respect to these  factors,  there can be no
assurance that the Company can achieve an improved  competitive  position in the
face of increasing competition from new products and enhancements  introduced by
existing  competitors  and new companies  entering its markets.  Markets for the
Company's products are characterized by significant price  competition,  and the
Company expects it will continue to face increasing pricing pressures. There can
be no assurance  that the Company will be able to compete  successfully  against
current  and  future  competitors  or that  competitive  pressures  faced by the
Company will not materially  adversely affect its business,  financial  position
and results of operations.

         Certain  of  the  Company's   competitors  have  substantially  greater
financial,  marketing or technical  resources than the Company.  There can be no
assurance  that other  companies  have not  developed  or  marketed  or will not
develop or market  products that are superior to those of the Company,  that are
offered at substantially  lower prices than those of the Company or that have or
will achieve greater market acceptance than those of the Company.

         The Company's revenues include sales of software, software licenses and
services,  less  returns.  Cost of  revenues  includes  the  costs  of  manuals,
diskettes and  duplication,  packaging materials, paper goods, product assembly,
warehousing and logistics services. Cost of revenues as a percentage of sales is
lower for OEM sales than for  distributor  and direct sales because fewer direct
costs are involved.  Sales and marketing  expenses consist primarily of salaries
of sales and marketing personnel,  customer service and technical support costs,
advertising and promotion expenses.  General and administrative expenses reflect
salaries of  administrative  personnel,  legal and accounting  costs and general
operating  expenses  including  rent and  insurance.  Research  and  development
expenses consist mainly of personnel and equipment costs required to conduct the
Company's  development  efforts.  Software  development  costs are  expensed  as
incurred.

         Revenues from sales to distributors  and resellers and direct sales are
recognized when products are shipped.  The Company's  software sales  agreements
generally do not involve significant support obligations to customers subsequent
to delivery.  Revenues  from products  licensed to OEMs,  consisting of one-time
license fees,  are  recognized at the time the software  master is delivered and
when the criteria for fixed fee revenue  recognition under Statement of Position
No. 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition" are satisfied. Additional royalty use or
unit copy royalty fees are recognized when they are received pursuant to license
agreements upon notification of shipment from OEMs.

Seasonality

         Sales to  distributors  tend to be  greater  in the  fourth  quarter as
consumers buy software to supplement their holiday computer hardware  purchases.
OEM sales are  concentrated  in a small number of large  customer  contracts and
tend to occur  sporadically.  Direct  sales  generally  increase  when  software
upgrades become available.

</TABLE>

         Revenues  for the three  months  ended June 30, 1999 were  $157,000,  a
decrease of $232,000,  or 60%, compared to $389,000 for the same period in 1998.
Revenues for the first six months of 1999 were $290,000, a decrease of $464,000,
or 62%,  compared  to $754,000  for the same  period in 1998.  Sales to software
distributors and resellers, together with direct sales were $34,000 and $64,000,
representing  22% of revenues in the three and six months  ended June 30,  1999,
compared to $311,000 and $583,000 which  represented 80% and 77% of revenues for
the same periods in 1998. OEM sales were $123,000 and $226,000  representing 78%
of  revenues  in the three and six months  ended June 30,  1999 and  $78,000 and
$171,000  representing 20% and 23% of revenues respectively for the same periods
in 1998.  International  sales accounted for 4% and 7% of the Company's revenues
for the  three and six  months  ended  June 30,  1999 and 5% and 4% for the same
periods in 1998.

         The Company has begun  positioning  its Worship  StudioTM  6.0 into the
Christian music market with enhanced  features  tailored to meet requirements of
music  pastors.  With this emphasis on special  feature sets  enhancing its core
technologies,  the Company hopes to lessen its reliance on relatively low margin
retail distribution.  The Company began shipping Worship StudioTM 6.0 during the
second  quarter of 1999.  This effort  required  marketing and sales  resources,
which the Company would otherwise have applied to its traditional retail channel
sales efforts.  The Company believes that this  transitioning  process,  and the
resources it has  required,  is the  principal  reason for  significantly  lower
revenues in the quarters  ended March 31 and June 30, 1999  compared to the same
periods in 1998.  These  efforts  are an element of the  Company's  strategy  to
enhance its core  technologies  and augment  its retail  distribution  with more
direct distribution  models.  The Company believes that successful  execution of
this  strategy  will result in higher gross  margins for its  packaged  software
business. These development efforts may not result in timely introduction of new
products, and these new products may not be commercially  successful.  Inability
to successfully  develop new products,  delays in the  introduction of these new
products,  or  lower-than-anticipated  demand  for these  products  could have a
material and adverse effect on the Company's business and results of operations.

         Gross  profit  for the three and six  months  ended  June 30,  1999 was
$143,000  and  $235,000,  a decrease  of  $79,000  and  $212,000,  respectively,
compared to $222,000 and  $447,000 for the same periods in the prior year.  As a
percentage of revenues,  gross margin  increased to 91% and 81% in the three and
six months  ended June 30,  1999 from 57% and 59% for the same  periods in 1998.
This difference  occurred because of a higher percentage of OEM sales,  compared
to other software  sales, in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999
versus the same periods in 1998. OEM sales generate licensing  royalties without
distribution  or packaging  costs,  resulting  in higher gross  margins than the
Company's other products.

         Sales and  marketing  expenses  for the three and six months ended June
30, 1999 were  $157,000 and  $360,000,  a reduction  of $208,000  and  $314,000,
compared to $365,000 and  $674,000 for the same periods in the prior year.  This
decrease  resulted from targeted  reductions in advertising  and fewer personnel
during  the three and six  months  ending  June 30,  1999  compared  to the same
periods in 1998.  As a percentage  of  revenues,  sales and  marketing  expenses
increased  to 100% and 124% in the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 from
94% and 89% for the same periods in 1998.  This  increase was a direct result of
comparably lower revenues in the first and second quarters of 1999.

         General and administrative  expenses for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1999 were  $391,000  and  $748,000,  a decrease of $19,000 and $41,000,
respectively,  compared to $410,000  and  $789,000  for the same  periods of the
prior year.  As a percentage of revenues,  these  expenses for the three and six
months  ended June 30,  1999  increased  to 249% and 258% from 105% for the same
periods  in 1998,  as a result  of lower  revenues  in the  three  and six month
periods ending June 30, 1999.

         Research  and  development  expenses for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1999 were $79,000 and  $180,000,  a decrease of $118,000 and  $242,000,
respectively,  compared to $197,000  and  $422,000  for the same  periods in the
prior year.  As a percentage  of revenues,  research  and  development  expenses
changed  slightly to 50% and 62% in the three and six months ended June 30, 1999
from 51% and 56% for the same periods in 1998.

         Interest  and other  income for the three and six months ended June 30,
1999 was $6,000 and $11,000, compared to $3,000 and $10,000 for the same periods
of the prior year. Interest and other expense for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1999 was $196,000 and $448,000 compared to $63,000 and $846,000 for the
same periods in 1998.  Interest  expense includes  one-time  non-cash charges of
$106,000 and $280,000 in the three and six months ended June 30, 1999,  relating
to the  valuation of the $450,000 of  convertible  debt and $57,000 and $107,000
for the same periods for amortization of the discount on the detachable warrants
issued through June 1999.  Interest  expense for the three and six month periods
ended June 30,  1998  included  one-time  non-cash  charges of $0 and  $722,000,
relating to the  valuation  of the  $1,000,000  of  convertible  debentures  and
$36,000  and  $66,000,   respectively,  for  amortization  of  the  discount  on
detachable  warrants  issued  through  June 1998.  The  balance of the  expense,
totaling  $61,000 in the first half of 1999 and  $58,000 in the same period last
year, represents accrued interest, penalties and issuance costs on the Company's
debt.

         No income  taxes were payable at June 30,  1999,  due to the  Company's
year-to-date  loss. The Company had Federal net operating loss  carryforwards at
December 31, 1998 of  approximately  $26.1  million that may reduce taxes due in
future  periods  and expire  beginning  in 2008.  In certain  circumstances,  as
specified in the Internal Revenue Code, a 50% or more change in ownership of the
Company  during  any  three-year  period  would  result  in  limitations  on the
Company's ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforward.  Such a change
may have  occurred as defined in Section 382 of the Internal  Revenue  Code.  An
investor who owns $3,200,000 in principal  amount of convertible  debentures and
associated  warrants,  has the  right to  purchase  an  additional  $800,000  of
convertible  debentures  in 1999.  If this  investor  were to  exercise  all its
warrants and convert all the debt it holds and has a right to acquire,  a change
in control of the Company would result.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

         As of June 30,  1999,  the  Company's  principal  sources of  liquidity
included  cash and cash  equivalents  of $85,000 and net accounts  receivable of
$120,000.  This compares to cash, cash equivalents and short term investments of
$270,000 and net  accounts  receivable  of $183,000 at December  31,  1998.  The
change in liquidity  and capital  resources is the result of negative  cash flow
from operations  during the first and second quarters of 1999,  partially offset
by bank borrowings and proceeds from the issuance of long term debt.

         The  Company's  current  liabilities  at June 30, 1999 were  $2,216,000
compared to  $1,803,000  at December  31,  1998.  As of June 30,  1999,  working
capital totaled a negative  $1,810,000.  The Company's operating activities used
cash of $527,000 and $883,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
1999,  primarily  caused by operating  losses of $484,000 and $1,053,000 for the
same  periods,  net of non-cash  charges.  This use of cash of $527,000  for the
three month  period  ended June 30,  1999,  is an increase of $232,000  from the
second quarter of 1998. Lower collections of accounts  receivable and payment of
some of the overdue accounts payable contributed to the increased use of cash in
the second quarter of 1999.

         The Company sold  $250,000 of  convertible  notes on March 30, 1999, in
accordance  with the Securities  Purchase  Agreement  discussed in the Company's
10-KSB/A  filed with the SEC on April 30, 1999.  The notes bear  interest at the
rate of 1% per annum payable annually in cash, or shares of the Company's common
stock,  and are convertible into 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
The note holder also received five-year  detachable warrants to purchase 500,000
shares of common  stock for $0.75 per share.  On April 30, 1999 the Company sold
another $200,000 of convertible notes bearing interest at 1% per annum,  payable
annually in cash, or shares of the Company's  common stock, and convertible into
250,000 shares of common stock.  The note holder received  five-year  detachable
warrants to purchase  250,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $1.75 per
share.  The note  holder has the right to  purchase  an  additional  $800,000 of
convertible  debentures  in 1999.  If the note holder  were to exercise  all its
warrants and convert all the debt it holds and has a right to acquire,  a change
in control of the Company would result.

         In June 1999 the  Company  opened two lines of credit  with Key Bank of
Washington  for $750,000  each,  or $1,500,000  combined.  These lines of credit
jointly  obligate  the Company and the  Company's  largest  creditor,  who holds
$3,200,000 of the Company's  convertible  debt. These credit lines were expanded
to $1,000,000  each, or $2,000,000  combined,  on July 15, 1999. All outstanding
principal and interest  must be paid on both lines by March 4, 2000.  The amount
borrowed  under the lines at June 30, 1999 was  $315,000,  which was  completely
repaid on July 16,  1999 after  receipt of the new equity  investment  described
below, putting the cash availability under the lines at $2,000,000.

         On July 14, 1999 the Company entered into Subscription and Registration
Rights  Agreements to sell 781,250 shares of the Company's common stock to a new
investor for total consideration of $1,000,000.  The funds were received on July
14, 1999. As part of the  transaction,  the Company agreed to pay a finder's fee
of $30,000 to an unrelated  third  party.  The finder's fee may be paid in cash,
common stock of the Company or some  combination  of the two. The 781,250 shares
of common stock have not been issued.

         To date,  the Company has financed its operations  principally  through
net  proceeds  from two public  offerings  and  private  placements  of debt and
equity.  The Company  believes that cash on hand, along with cash generated from
the sale of products and collections of accounts receivable,  will be sufficient
to meet the Company's requirements for the next few months and that the lines of
credit,  so long as they are available,  will provide  working  capital  through
early 2000 . The  Company's  ability to fund  continued  operations  beyond that
point  depends on raising  additional  capital.  Should the Company be unable to
raise additional capital,  the Company will be required to significantly  reduce
operations,  reduce  expenses,  and may find it necessary to file for protection
under the  bankruptcy  code.  Such steps would  likely  have a material  adverse
effect on the  Company's  ability  to  establish  profitable  operations  in the
future.  The Company will  continue to pursue other  financing  arrangements  to
increase  its cash  reserves.  There can be no  assurance  the  Company  will be
capable of raising  additional capital or that the terms upon which such capital
will be available to the Company will be acceptable.

Trade Debt and Other Matters

         As of June 30, 1999,  the Company had $37,000 of accounts  payable that
were current, $24,000 extended to between 31 and 60 days and $1,194,000 extended
over 60 days. The level of extended  accounts payable results from the Company's
negative  operating  cash. The Company has entered into plans to extend payments
beyond due dates in the original  purchase  orders.  While the Company  believes
that payment plans will continue to be accepted,  there is no certainty that the
Company will be able to continue to meet extended payment terms. The Company has
received demand letters from certain  vendors  requesting  immediate  payment of
amounts owing them totaling approximately  $793,000.  Nine of these vendors have
initiated  litigation and received  judgments.  The remaining  unpaid balance of
these  judgments is  approximately  $117,000.  Some vendors have  declined sales
on credit terms to the Company and others have required cash on delivery  terms.
The Company  has negotiated  changes in delivery dat  commitments,  but has  not
failed to make product shipments because of supply problems from its vendors.

YEAR 2000 Issues

         The Year 2000 or Y2K problem is somewhat predictable in its timing, but
unpredictable in its effects. In order to conserve limited computer memory, many
computer systems,  software programs, and other microprocessor dependent devices
were created using only two digit dates,  such that 1998 was  represented as 98.
These  systems  may not  recognize  certain  1999  dates,  and the year 2000 and
beyond,  with the result that  processors  and programs may fail to complete the
processing  of  information  or revert back to the year 1900. As we approach the
year 2000, we expect  computer  systems and software used by many companies in a
wide variety of applications to experience  operating  difficulties  unless they
are  modified  or  upgraded  to process  information  involving,  related to, or
dependent upon the century change. Failures could incapacitate systems essential
to the functioning of commerce, building systems, consumer products,  utilities,
and government  services locally as well as worldwide.  Significant  uncertainty
exists concerning the scope and magnitude of problems associated with Y2K.

         The Company has  established  a Y2K Task Force to address  these risks.
The Y2K Task  Force,  comprised  of the CEO,  CFO and  Director  of  Information
Technology, is leading the Year 2000 risk management efforts. The Y2K Task Force
is coordinating the identification and testing of computer hardware and software
applications,   with  a  goal  to  ensure  availability  and  integrity  of  the
information  systems and the reliability of the operational  systems utilized by
the Company.

The Year 2000  Project at Midisoft  Corporation  uses the  following  five-phase
methodology and approach:

The first two phases are "work in progress"  and are being updated on an ongoing
basis.

Phase I - Inventory.  Collect a  comprehensive  list of  components  that may be
affected by the Year 2000 issues.  Components are categorized  into  facilities,
hardware, software, and services.

Phase II - Assessment. Evaluate the inventory to determine which components will
function  properly  with the turn of the  century and rank  components  based on
their potential  impact to the Company.  Each component is assigned  priority as
follows:

         Based on assigned  priorities from Phase I and II, the following phases
will be carried out to the  critical  components  first,  followed by  important
components, then inconvenient components and finally non-essential components if
resources  and time are  available.  The  Company has  completed  testing of all
critical and important  components  and is committed to achieving Y2K compliance
for these  components by September  30, 1999.  Testing on all  inconvenient  and
non-essential  components  should be finished by September 30, 1999 and complete
Y2K compliance is scheduled to be accomplished before November 30, 1999.

Phase  III  -  Remediation.  Analyze  all  components  affected  by  Year  2000,
identifying problem areas and repairing / replacing non-compliant components.

Phase IV - Testing.  Thorough testing of all affected systems, including present
and future date testing to simulate Year 2000 dates.

Phase V -  Implementation.  Place all  components  that  have been  successfully
tested into production.

         Information  systems are being tested with a licensed software program,
diagnostic tools designed for personal  computers and servers that will identify
Y2K issues  related to  computer  hardware,  software  and data.  To date,  this
testing appears to have been successful and has yielded no significant problems.
With  the  constant   introduction  of  new  computer  equipment  and  software,
information systems testing will continue throughout the year.

         The Company does not  currently  utilize  Electronic  Data  Interchange
(EDI) with any of its  partners  or  vendors  but will  thoroughly  test any EDI
situation that may arise between now and March 1, 2000. If critical suppliers do
not  satisfy  the  Company's  Year  2000  compliance  requirements,  alternative
suppliers will be identified.  As a contingency  plan,  inventory  levels may be
raised  prior to  December  1999 to assure  continued  delivery  of  products to
customers through March 2000.

Risks

         In the event  such  third  parties  cannot  provide  the  Company  with
products,  services, or systems that meet the Year 2000 requirements on a timely
basis,  or in the event Year 2000 issues  prevent such third parties from timely
delivery of products or services required by the Company,  the Company's results
of operations could be materially  adversely  affected.  To the extent Year 2000
issues cause  significant  delays in, or cancellation of, decisions to purchase,
the  Company's  products  or  services,  the  Company's  business,   results  of
operations,  and financial position would be materially adversely affected.  The
Company  is  assessing  these  risks  and in some  cases  has  initiated  formal
communications with significant  suppliers and customers to determine the extent
to which the Company is vulnerable to these third parties'  failure to remediate
their own Year 2000 issues.  There can be no assurance the Company will identify
and remediate all significant  Year 2000 risks, or that such risks will not have
a material adverse effect on the Company's business,  results of operations,  or
financial   position.   Accordingly,   the  Company  will  continue  to  develop
contingency  plans in anticipation of unexpected Year 2000 events.  Based on its
assessment of year 2000 risks to date, the Company does not believe any material
exposure to significant  business  interruption  exists as a result of Year 2000
compliance issues.

Contingency Plans

         Since the Year 2000 problem is  pervasive,  few, if any,  companies can
make  absolute  assurances  that they will identify and remediate all Y2K risks.
Accordingly, the Company expects the risk assessment and contingency planning to
remain an ongoing  process  leading up to and beyond the year 2000. In addition,
the  potential  Year 2000 problem is being  addressed  as part of the  Company's
overall emergency  preparedness  program that includes  contingency planning for
other potential major catastrophes like earthquakes, fires and floods.

         The Company's  approach to Financial  Risk has two main areas of focus.
Secure the broadest  insurance coverage available at a reasonable cost and avoid
exclusions or  restrictions of coverage,  if possible.  The Company will explore
other Financial Risk Transfer products and/or Y2K specific insurance coverage to
the extent that it becomes available at economically feasible levels.

Estimated Costs

         The Company is continuing to assess the potential impact of the century
change on its business, results of operations, and financial position. The total
cost of these Year 2000 compliance activities is anticipated to be immaterial to
the Company's  financial position or its results of operations.  If there should
be significant problem(s) achieving Year 2000 compliance,  there is no assurance
that the Company will have the financial or other resources to properly  address
the problem(s).  The cost of internal  resources  dedicated to the Year 2000 has
not been estimated at this time.

Forward-Looking Statements

         This report  contains  certain  forward-looking  statements  within the
meaning of Section  27A of the  Securities  Act of 1933 and  Section  21E of the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  and such  statements  are subject to the safe
harbors created thereby. These forward-looking  statements include the plans and
objectives of management for future  operations,  including plans and objectives
relating  to (a) the  ability to fund  continued  operations  out of  additional
capital  infusion and (b) the success of the Company's  approach to dealing with
year 2000 issues. The  forward-looking  statements  included herein are based on
current  expectations  that involve a number of risks and  uncertainties.  These
forward-looking  statements  are  based on  assumptions  that the  Company  will
continue to develop and introduce new music,  strategic and Internet products on
a timely basis,  that rapid  changes in  technology  will not make the Company's
products   obsolete  or  otherwise  reduce  their  ability  to  compete  in  the
marketplace,  that  competitive  conditions  within the industry will not change
materially  or  adversely,  that the use of  multimedia  PC's in homes and small
offices will continue to grow, that management's decision to focus the Company's
resources on music and sound  products  will reduce  certain  expenses  from the
levels  which  were  experienced  in 1997 and 1998,  and that  there  will be no
material  adverse  change in the Company's  operations or business.  Assumptions
relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things,
future  economic,   competitive  and  market  conditions,  and  future  business
decisions,  all of which are difficult or impossible to predict  accurately  and
many of which are  beyond the  control  of the  Company.  Although  the  Company
believes that the  assumptions  underlying  the  forward-looking  statements are
reasonable,  any of the assumptions  could prove inaccurate and, there can be no
assurance that the  forward-looking  information  will prove to be accurate.  In
light  of  the  significant   uncertainties   inherent  in  the  forward-looking
information  included herein,  the inclusion of such  information  should not be
regarded  as a  representation  by the  Company  or any  other  person  that the
objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved.

                                     PART II
                                OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS -

             In 1997,  an entity which sold  substantially  all of its assets to
             the Company in 1995  demanded  that the Company  arbitrate  certain
             claims arising from the sale. The claims aggregated in excess of $1
             million.  The parties  reached an agreement in July 1998 outside of
             arbitration.  In exchange for the mutual  release of all claims and
             counterclaims,  the  Company  agreed to  provide  consideration  of
             $420,000,   $25,000  in  cash  and  the   remainder   comprised  of
             forgiveness  of  $112,000  in debt and  issuance  of  approximately
             630,000  Midisoft  common  shares.  The  Company  agreed  to file a
             registration  statement for these shares within 30 days after final
             authorization  by the  shareholders  in 1998, but has not filed the
             registration  statement as of this date.  Payments totaling $20,000
             have been made.  The debt of $112,000  has been fully  reserved and
             expense  of  $283,000  for the  additional  common  shares has been
             booked  as  of  December  31,  1998.   Midisoft  agreed  to  remove
             restrictive  legends on 166,667 of previously  issued  shares.  The
             Company  believes that the entity's  subsequent  actions  nullified
             this  agreement.  The 630,000 common shares have not been issued In
             July 1999 the Company  demanded the return of the cash payments and
             16,667 shares of the common stock issued,  withdrew its forgiveness
             of the debt and the terms of settlement are being reconsidered. The
             Company has not yet received a response to its demand.

             In March 1997, a former sales representative filed suit in Michigan
             against  Midisoft  under a  certain  manufacturer's  representative
             agreement  entered  into  between  the  parties in  November  1994.
             Plaintiff  claims  that the  Company  breached  this  agreement  by
             failing  to pay  commissions  and is  seeking  damages in excess of
             $75,000.  Midisoft denies that it failed to pay  commissions  under
             the agreement and is asserting  counterclaims for over payments and
             return credits.  Damages  asserted by the Company equal the damages
             claimed by the  plaintiff.  The parties are  awaiting a trial date,
             which is reportedly  to occur  sometime  during 1999.  The ultimate
             outcome cannot be determined at this time, but the Company believes
             that  it  has  meritorious  defenses  and is  vigorously  defending
             against the claim.

             On April 3, 1997 the Company began arbitration  proceedings against
             a former customer. On September 24, 1997, the Company was awarded a
             judgment in the amount of $194,983.37  against the former customer.
             The amount of the award  represents the sum of 1) $160,000.00,  the
             unpaid  portion  of the  base  annual  license  royalty  under  the
             Company's  OEM License  Agreement and 2)  $34,983.37,  representing
             interest on the unpaid installments from their respective due dates
             through  the  date  of the  award  computed  at 12% per  annum.  In
             November 1998, the former  customer  exhausted its appeals when the
             Washington  State  Court of Appeals  denied  the former  customer's
             appeal motion,  thereby terminating the appellate process. In March
             1999, the Company  amended the judgment to add attorneys'  fees and
             interest accrued since the original judgment was entered. The total
             amount of the  amended  judgment  is  $247,925.34.  The  Company is
             pursuing   collection  in  Washington   State  and  has  engaged  a
             California law firm to enforce judgment in the state of California,
             the headquarters location of the former customer.

             The  Company has  received  demand  letters  from  certain  vendors
             requesting   immediate  payment  of  amounts  owing  them  totaling
             approximately  $793,000.  Fifteen of these  vendors have  initiated
             litigation for claims totaling  approximately  $183,000 and nine of
             these have received judgments of which the remaining unpaid balance
             is  approximately  $117,000.  The Company  has  reached  settlement
             agreements with some vendors and is negotiating with the remainder.
             Some vendors have declined sales on credit terms to the Company and
             others have required cash on delivery or in advance terms.

ITEM 2.  CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS -

             In  July  1999  the  Company   entered  into  a  Subscription   and
             Registration  Rights  Agreements  to  sell  781,250  shares  of the
             Company's common stock to a new investor for a total  consideration
             of  $1,000,000.  The shares  have not been  issued.  The funds were
             received on July 14, 1999 and will be used for working capital.  As
             part of the  transaction,  the Company agreed to pay a finder's fee
             of $30,000 to an unrelated third party. The finders fee may be paid
             in cash,  common  stock of the Company or some  combination  of the
             two.

         On  February  10,  1998,  Midisoft  Corporation's  Board  of  Directors
unanimously  adopted,  by  resolution,  a new Stock Option Plan for  independent
directors, non-employee consultants, and employees as described in the plan; and
authorized  500,000 shares of Common Stock to be reserved for  administration of
the plan.
         Legal  Counsel  advised  that in  November  1996,  the SEC  removed the
requirement  for  shareholder  approval  of director  stock  option  plans.  The
exemption from short-swing  profits regulation  ss.166-3(d)  continues to apply.
The options and underlying  stock would be covered for exemption  based upon the
Board's  approval of the grants or the Committee with two independent  directors
making the grant or the shares being held for at least six months.
         Counsel  further advised that the  Non-Qualified  plan does not qualify
for tax  treatment  under IRS  ss.422;  therefore,  shareholder  approval is not
required for purposes of meeting 26 USC Sec 422.  Nasdaq OTC/BB  Compliance Unit
advised that there is no  requirement  to obtain  shareholder  approval of stock
option plans on the OTC/BB.
         Therefore,  the following plan is  established  to allow  Directors and
Non-Employee consultants to participate in the ownership of the Company.

Exhibit 10.1


                              MIDISOFT CORPORATION

                         NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION PLAN

                                    ARTICLE I

                               Purpose of the Plan


         The  Midisoft  Corporation  Incentive  Stock Option Plan ("Plan A") and
Nonstatutory  Stock Option Plan ("Plan B")  (collectively,  "the Plans") provide
two methods for key employees and certain non-employee directors and consultants
of Midisoft  Corporation (the "Company") to acquire ownership in the Company and
provide them with greater  incentive for their  service to the Company,  thereby
promoting the interest of the Company and its stockholders.
         Plan A provides  for the  granting  of  options  that are  intended  to
qualify as  incentive  stock  options  ("Incentive  Stock  Options")  within the
meaning of section  422A of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986,  as amended (the
"Code"). Plan B provides for the granting of options that are not intended to so
qualify.  Unless otherwise specified,  all provisions of the Plan relate equally
to both Plan A and Plan B,  which  Plans are  condensed  into one plan  document
solely for the purposes of  administrative  convenience  and are not intended to
constitute tandem plans.
                                   ARTICLE II
                                 Effective Date
         Plan A is  effective  February  22,  1989 and is  governed  by separate
document  entitled,   MIDISOFT  CORPORATION  INCENTIVE  STOCK  OPTION  PLAN  AND
NONSTATUTORY  STOCK OPTION PLAN DATED  February  22,  1989.  Plan B is effective
February 10, 1998.

                                   ARTICLE III
                           Administration of the Plans
         The  plans  shall be  administered  by the Board of  Directors  or by a
Committee  (the  "Committee")  appointed by the Board and consisting of not less
than three (3) Board members. (For the purposes of this Plan document,  the term
Board shall also mean the  Committee to the extent that the Board's  powers have
been delegated to the Committee.)
         The Board shall have the exclusive authority in its absolute discretion
to determine which  employees and  consultants of the corporation  shall receive
Options  (the  "Optionees"),  and,  subject to the express  provisions  of these
Plans,  the terms and  conditions  of the  Options  other than  those  terms and
conditions  fixed under these  Plans,  and the number of shares  issued upon the
exercise of the  Options.  The Board shall  adopt by  resolution  such rules and
regulations  as may be required to carry out the purposes of the Plans and shall
have the authority to do everything  necessary or  appropriate to administer the
Plans. All decisions,  determinations and  interpretations of the Board shall be
final and binding on all Optionees.  Administration of the Plans with respect to
members of the Committee  shall not be delegated,  but shall at all times remain
vested in the Board.  The Board may from time to time remove members from or add
members to the Committee,  and vacancies on the Committee shall be filled by the
Board.  Furthermore,  the  Board  at any  time by  resolution  may  abolish  the
Committee and revest in the Board the administration of the Plans.
         With respect to Options  granted to a key employee who is also a member
of the Board, the Board shall take action by a vote sufficient  without counting
the vote of such  member of the Board  although  such member of the Board may be
counted in determining  the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board which
authorized the granting of Options to such member of the Board.
         The Committee, if appointed by the Board, shall report to the Board the
names of employees granted Options,  the number of shares covered by each Option
and the terms and conditions of such Option.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                           Stock Subject to the Plans
         The stock to be issued upon the exercise of an Option granted under the
Plans shall be the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock"). The Common Stock
may be either authorized but unissued or Common Stock reacquired by the Company.
The  aggregate  number of shares of Common  Stock which may be issued  under the
Plans shall not exceed One Million Nine  Hundred  Seventy  Thousand  (1,970,000)
shares of Common Stock. In the event that any outstanding  Option for any reason
expires or is terminated,  the Common Stock allocable to the unexercised portion
of such Option may again be made subject to an Option under the Plans.

                                    ARTICLE V
                                   Eligibility
         Persons  who shall be  eligible  to receive  Options  under these Plans
shall be as follows:
                           A. In the case of Plan A,  employees  of the  Company
who render those types of services  which tend to  contribute  materially to the
success of the Company;
                           B. In the  case of Plan  B,  employees  described  in
subsection A above and any  non-employee  directors  or  consultants who  render
those types of services which tend to contribute materially to the Company.
         The  determination  as to whether  such persons are eligible to receive
Options under the Plans shall be made by the Board in its sole  discretion,  and
the decision of the Board shall be binding and final.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                                  Option Price
         The option  price for shares of Common  Stock to be issued under Plan A
shall be equal to or greater  than the fair  market  value of such shares on the
date on which the Option covering such shares is granted,  except that if on the
date on which such Option is granted the Optionee is a  Restricted  Shareholder,
then such  option  price  shall be equal to or greater  than one hundred ten per
cent  (110%) of the fair  market  value of the shares on the date such Option is
granted. For the purposes of Plan A, a "Restricted Shareholder" is an individual
who, at the time an Option is granted under Plan A, owns stock  possessing  more
than ten per cent (10%) of the total  combined  voting  power of all  classes of
stock of the  Company,  with stock  ownership to be  determined  in light of the
attribution rules set forth in Section 425(d) of the Code. The fair market value
of shares of Common Stock for all purposes of Plan A shall be  determined by the
Board in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith.
         The Option  price for shares of Common  Stock to be issued under Plan B
shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                             Stock Option Agreement
         The terms and  conditions  of Options  granted under the Plans shall be
evidenced by a stock option agreement  executed by the Company and the person to
whom the Option is granted  (the "Stock  Option  Agreement").  The Stock  Option
Agreement  shall  contain  terms as  approved  from time to time by the Board of
Directors.  Each Stock Option Agreement shall  incorporate this Plan document by
reference and shall include such provisions as are determined to be necessary or
appropriate  by  the  Board.   Each  Stock  Option  Agreement  shall  contain  a
termination date established by the Board, an no Option shall have a termination
date which is more than ten (10) years from the date on which it was granted.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                               Exercise of Option
         Subject  to the  limitations  set  forth in these  Plans  and/or in any
applicable  Stock  Option  Agreement  entered  into under these  Plans,  Options
granted under these Plans shall be exercisable in accordance  with the following
rules:
                           A.       General.  Subject to the other provisions of
this  Article,  Options shall vest and become  exercisable  at such times and in
such  installments  as the Board shall provide in each  individual  Stock Option
Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may in its sole discretion,
accelerate the time at which an Option or installment  thereof may be exercised.
For purposes of these Plans,  any vested  installment of an Option granted under
these Plans shall be referred as an "Accrued Installment."
                           B.       Termination of Options.  All installments of
an Option shall expire and terminate on such date as the Board shall  determine,
but in no event  later than ten (10) years from the date such Option was granted
("Option  Termination  Date")  (except that an Option  granted under Plan A to a
Restricted  Shareholder  shall  by  its  terms  not  be  exercisable  after  the
expiration  of five (5) years  from the date such  Option was  granted).  Unless
provided otherwise in the Article,  or in the Stock Option Agreement pursuant to
which an Option is granted, an Option may be exercised when Accrued Installments
accrue as provided  in such Stock  Option  Agreement  and at any time after that
date until, and including, the day before the Option Termination Date.
                           C.       Sale or Reorganization.
                                    1.  Upon the  dissolution or  liquidation of
the Company,  or upon a  reorganization,  merger or consolidation of the Company
with one or more  corporations,  as a result  of which the  Company  goes out of
existence  or becomes a  subsidiary  of another  corporation,  or upon a sale of
substantially  all the  property or more than eighty  percent  (80%) of the then
outstanding stock of the Company to another corporation,  an Option shall become
immediately  exercisable  with  respect to the full number of shares  subject to
that  Option  during  the  period  commencing  as of the  date of the  agreement
providing for such transaction is executed and ending of the earlier of:
                                          (a) The applicable expiration date for
 such Option as provided for in the Stock Option Agreement; or
                                          (b) The date on which the  disposition
 of assets  or stock  contemplated  by any suchagreement is consummated.
                                    2. Upon the  consummation of any transaction
specified  in  Article  VIII C of these  Plans,  the Plans  and any  unexercised
Options  issued  under the  Plans (or any  unexercised  portion  of them)  shall
terminate  and cease to be  effective,  unless a provision is made in connection
with the  transaction  for  assumption  of  Options  previously  granted  or the
substitution  for such  Options of new  options  covering  the  securities  of a
successor corporation or an affiliate thereof,  with appropriate  adjustments as
to the number and kind of securities and prices.  Any change or adjustment  made
pursuant to the terms of this  Subsection 2 shall be made in such a manner so as
not to constitute a "modification" as defined in Section 425(h) of the Code and,
if possible,  so as not to cause any Incentive  Stock Option issued under Plan A
to fail to  continue  to  qualify  as an  Incentive  Stock  Option as defined in
Section 422A(b) of the Code.
                           D.          Termination of Employment  Other  Than by
Death or  Disability.  In the event that the  employment of an Optionee with the
Company is terminated (or, in the case of a non-employee director or consultant,
service as a director or consultant,  as the case may be, is terminated) for any
reason  other than death or permanent  and total  disability,  any  installments
under  the  Option  which  have not  accrued,  as of the date of the  employee's
termination  (the  "Employee's   Termination  Date")  shall  expire  and  become
unexercisable as of the Employee's Termination Date. All accrued installments as
of the Employee's  Termination Date shall remain exercisable for a period not to
exceed three (3) months following the Employee's Termination Date.
                           E.          Death or  Disability  of  Optionee  While
Employed.  In the event that the  employment  of an Optionee with the Company is
terminated (or, in the case of a non-employee director or consultant, service as
a director or consultant,  as the case may be, is terminated) by reason of death
or permanent and total  disability,  any  unexercised  Accrued  Installments  of
Options  granted  under  the  Plans to the  Optionee  shall  expire  and  become
unexercisable as of the earlier of:
                                   1. The applicable Option Termination Date; or
                                   2. The first  anniversary  of the  Employee's
Termination  Date by reason of death or permanent  and total  disability of such
Optionee.  Any installments under such a deceased or disabled  Optionee's Option
that have not  accrued  as of the  Employee's  Termination  Date due to death or
permanent and total disability  shall expire and become  unexercisable as of the
Employee's  Termination  Date. For purposes of these Plans,  the term "permanent
and total disability" shall be defined under Code Section 105(d)(4).
                           F.       Exercise of Options.     An  Option  may  be
exercised in  accordance  with this Article VIII as to all or any portion of the
shares covered by an Accrued  Installment of the Option from time to time during
the  applicable  Option  period,  except that an Option shall not be exercisable
with respect to fractions of a share.
                           G.       Payment.   Payment of the Option Price shall
be made as determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

                                   ARTICLE IX
             Authorization to Issue Options and Shareholder Approval
Options granted under the Plans shall be conditioned upon the Company  obtaining
any required  regulatory  permit,  free of any  conditions not acceptable to the
Board,  authorizing the Company to issue such Options,  provided,  however, such
condition  shall lapse as of the effective date of issuance of such permit(s) in
a form to which the Company does not object within sixty (60) days. The grant of
Options under Plan A also is  conditioned on approval of the Plan by the vote or
written  consent of the holders of a majority of the  outstanding  shares of the
Company's Common Stock ("Shareholder Approval"),  and no Option shall be granted
under Plan A unless and until the Plan has been so approved.  All Options  under
the Plans must be  granted,  if at all,  within ten (10) years from the date the
Plans  are  adopted  or from  the date of  Shareholder  Approval,  whichever  is
earlier.
                                    ARTICLE X
                  Limit On Value and Number of Optioned Shares
         The aggregate  fair market value  (determined as of the date the Option
is granted) of the shares of Common Stock with respect to which any employee may
exercise  Incentive  Stock Options for the first time in any calendar year under
all  incentive  stock option  plans of the Company (or any parent or  subsidiary
corporation)  shall not exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars  ($100,000.00).  The
limitation   imposed  by  this  Article  X  shall  not  apply  with  respect  to
nonstatutory stock options granted under Plan B.

                                   ARTICLE XI
                           Stock Restriction Agreement
As a condition to the granting of any Option under the Plans and the  subsequent
exercise of such  Option,  the Board may  require  the  Optionee to enter into a
stock restriction agreement ("Stock Restriction Agreement") with the Company for
the purpose of limiting the sale or other  transfer of ownership of Common Stock
acquired by the Optionee.
                                   ARTICLE XII
                      Amendment or Termination of the Plans
         The Board may amend,  suspend  and/or  terminate the Plans at any time,
provided,  however, that except as provided in Article XV below, the Board shall
not amend Plan A in the following respects without shareholder approval:
         A. To increase the maximum number of shares subject to Plan A.
         B. To change the  designation  or class of persons  eligible to receive
         Options  under  the  Plan;  C. To  extend  the term of the Plans or the
         maximum Option exercise period;  or D. To decrease the minimum price at
         which shares may be optioned under the Plan. Furthermore, the Plans may
         not, without the approval of the shareholders, be amended in any manner
         that would cause
Incentive  Stock Options  issued under the Plans to fail to qualify as Incentive
Stock  Options as defined in Section  422A(b) of the Code.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing, no amendment,  suspension or termination of the Plans shall adversely
affect  Options  granted on or prior to the date  thereof,  as  evidenced by the
execution  of a Stock  Option  Agreement  by both the Company and the  Optionee,
without the consent of such Optionee.

                                  ARTICLE XIII
                            Options Not Transferable
         Options granted under the Plans may not be sold, pledged, hypothecated,
assigned,  encumbered,  gifted or  otherwise  transferred  or  alienated  in any
manner,  whether voluntarily or involuntarily by operation of law, other than by
will or the laws of descent or  distribution,  and may be  exercised  during the
lifetime of any Optionee only by such Optionee.

                                   ARTICLE XIV
                       Restrictions of Issuance of Shares
         The Company, during the term of the Plans, will use its best efforts to
seek  to  obtain  from  the  appropriate   regulatory   agencies  any  requisite
authorization  in order to issue  and sell such  number of shares of its  Common
Stock as shall be  sufficient  to satisfy  the  requirements  of the Plans.  The
inability  of the  Company  to obtain  from any such  regulatory  agency  having
jurisdiction  thereof the  authorization  deemed by the Company's  counsel to be
necessary  to the lawful  issuance and sale of any shares of its stock under the
Plans shall relieve the Company of any  liability in respect of the  nonissuance
or sale of such stock as to which such  requisite  authorization  shall not have
been obtained.

                                   ARTICLE XV
                   Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization
         If the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company are increased,
decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of
the Company through reorganization,  recapitalization,  reclassification,  stock
dividend, stock split, upon proper authorization of the Board an appropriate and
proportionate  adjustment shall be made in the number or kind of shares, and the
per share  option  price  thereof,  which may be issued in the  aggregate to the
individual  Optionees  under these Plans upon exercise of Options  granted under
the Plans; provided,  however, that no such adjustment need be made if, upon the
advice of counsel,  the Board  determines that such adjustment may result in the
receipt of  federally  taxable  income to holders of Options  granted  under the
Plans  or the  holders  of  Common  Stock  or  other  classes  of the  Company's
securities. If any Option granted under the Plans shall terminate for any reason
or expire before such Option is exercised in full,  the  securities  which might
otherwise  have been issued upon  exercise  of such  Option  shall again  become
available for purposes of these Plans.

                                   ARTICLE XVI
                         Representations and Warranties
         As a condition  to the  granting and the exercise of any portion of any
Option,  the Company may require the person  receiving or exercising such Option
to make  any  representation  and/or  warranty  to the  Company  as may,  in the
judgment of counsel to the  Company,  be required  under any  applicable  law or
regulation,  including but not limited to a representation and warranty that the
Option and/or  shares are being  acquired  only for  investment  and without any
present  intention  to sell or  distribute  such  shares  if, in the  opinion of
counsel for the Company,  such a representation is required under the Securities
Act of 1933 or any other applicable law,  regulation or rule of any governmental
agency.

                                  ARTICLE XVII
                            No Enlargement of Rights
         These Plans are purely voluntary on the part of the Company,  and while
the Company hopes to continue them  indefinitely,  the  continuance of the Plans
shall not be  deemed to  constitute  a  contract  between  the  Company  and any
employee or any non-employee director or consultant, or to be consideration or a
condition of the  employment  of any  employee or retention of any  non-employee
director or consultant.  Nothing  contained in the Plans shall be deemed to give
any employee or any non-employee director or consultant the right to be retained
or  employed  by the  Company or to  interfere  with the right of the Company to
discharge or retire any employee or  non-employee  director or consultant of the
Company at any time. No employee or  non-employee  director or consultant  shall
have any right to or interest in Options authorized under the Plans prior to the
grant of an Option to him,  and upon such a grant he shall have only such rights
and interests as are expressly provided in the Plans,  subject,  however, to all
applicable  provisions of the Company's  Articles of Incorporation,  as the same
may be amended from time to time.

                                  ARTICLE XVIII
                    Legends on Options and Stock Certificates
         Unless an appropriate  registration  statement is filed pursuant to the
Federal Securities Act of 1933 as amended,  with respect to the shares of Common
Stock  issuable under these Plans,  each  certificate  representing  such Common
Stock shall be endorsed with the following legend or its equivalent:

                  NEITHER THE OPTION PURSUANT TO WHICH THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY
                  THIS   CERTIFICATE  ARE  ISSUED  NOR  SAID  SHARES  HAVE  BEEN
                  REGISTERED  UNDER  THE  FEDERAL  SECURITIES  ACT OF  1933,  AS
                  AMENDED (THE "ACT").  TRANSFER OR SALE OF SUCH  SECURITIES  OR
                  ANY INTEREST THEREIN IS UNLAWFUL EXCEPT AFTER REGISTRATION, OR
                  PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE  REGISTRATION  REQUIREMENTS,
                  AS PROVIDED IN THE ACT AND THE REGULATIONS THEREUNDER.

         In addition to the  foregoing  legend each Stock Option  Agreement  and
each certificate  representing shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise
of an Option shall be endorsed with all legends,  if any, required by applicable
state  securities  laws to be placed on the Stock  Option  Agreement  and/or the
certificate.

                                   ARTICLE XIX
                              Availability of Plans
         A copy of  these  Plans  shall be  delivered  to the  Secretary  of the
Company  and  shall be shown by the  Secretary  to any  eligible  person  making
reasonable inquiry concerning the Plans.

                                   ARTICLE XX
                                 Applicable Law
         These Plans shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of Washington.
         IN WITNESS WHEREOF,  pursuant to the due  authorization and adoption of
these Plans by the Board and Shareholders in the case of Plan A, the Company has
caused  these  Plans  to be  duly  executed  by its  duly  authorized  officers,
effective as of February 10, 1998.

         MIDISOFT CORPORATION

         1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN


                                    Article 1
                            PURPOSE AND EFFECTIVENESS

         1.1 Purpose.  The purpose of the 1999 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") is
to  provide a method  by which  selected  individuals  performing  services  for
Midisoft Corporation,  a Washington  corporation (the "Company"),  or any of its
Affiliates,  may be offered  an  opportunity  to invest in capital  stock of the
Company, thereby increasing their personal interest in the growth and success of
the Company and its Affiliates.

         1.2 Effective Date; Shareholder Approval Requirement. The Plan shall be
effective at the time  specified in the  resolutions  of the Board  adopting the
Plan (the "Effective  Date").  Issuance of Incentive Stock Options within twelve
(12) months  after the  Effective  Date shall be subject to the  approval of the
Plan by the  shareholders  of the Company at a duly held meeting of shareholders
at  which  a  majority  of  all  outstanding  voting  stock  of the  Company  is
represented in person or by proxy. The approval  required shall be a majority of
the votes cast on the  proposal to approve the Plan.  Such  approval may also be
provided  pursuant to a written  consent in lieu of such  meeting.  No Incentive
Stock Option  shall be  exercisable  until this  approval  requirement  has been
satisfied.  If this requirement is not satisfied within twelve (12) months after
the  Effective  Date,  then (a) no Incentive  Stock  Options may  thereafter  be
granted,  and (b) each  Incentive  Stock  Option  granted  prior  thereto  shall
automatically be deemed to be a Nonqualified  Stock Option (except to the extent
its Option Agreement expressly provides otherwise).

                                    Article 2

purchases  any Common  Stock (or  securities  convertible  into  Common  Stock),
pursuant  to a tender  offer or a request or  invitation  for  tenders (as those

                                 ADMINISTRATION

         3.1 Committee.  The Plan shall be  administered by the Board unless the
Board appoints a separate committee of the Board to administer the Plan pursuant
to Section 3.2 (the Board, or such committee,  if it is administering  the Plan,
will be referred to as the  "Committee").  The Committee shall select one of its
members as its  chairman and shall hold its meetings at such times and places as
it shall deem advisable. A majority of its members shall constitute a quorum and
all determinations shall be made by a majority of that quorum. Any determination
reduced to writing and signed by all of the members of the Committee shall be as
effective as if it had been made by a majority vote at a meeting duly called and
held.

         3.2  Appointment  of  Committee.  The  Board may  appoint  a  committee
consisting of two or more of its members to administer the Plan. Once appointed,
the committee  shall  continue to serve until  otherwise  directed by the Board.
From time to time the Board may increase the size of the  committee  and appoint
additional  members,  remove  members  (with or without  cause) and  appoint new
members in their place, fill vacancies however caused, and/or remove all members
of the committee and thereafter directly administer the Plan.

         3.3  Powers;  Regulations.  The  Committee  shall  have full  power and
authority,  subject  only to the  provisions  of the Plan (a) to  administer  or
supervise the administration of the Plan; (b) to interpret the provisions of the
Plan  and  the  Option  Agreements;  (c)  to  correct  any  defect,  supply  any
information and reconcile any inconsistency in such manner and to such extent as
it determines to be necessary or advisable to carry out the purpose of the Plan;
and (d) to take such other actions in connection  with the Plan as it determines
to be necessary or advisable.  The  Committee is authorized to adopt,  amend and
rescind  such  rules,  regulations  and  procedures  not  inconsistent  with the
provisions  of the Plan as it  determines  to be necessary or advisable  for the
proper  administration of the Plan, and each Option shall be subject to all such
rules,  regulations  and  procedures  (whether the Option was granted  before or
after promulgation thereof).  Without limiting the authority of the Committee to
interpret  the  provisions of the Plan,  the  Committee  shall have the right to
determine  that a  transaction  (or  series of  related  transactions)  is not a
Control Purchase,  even though literally  included within the definition of that
term, if the Committee  determines  that the  transaction  (or series of related
transactions) does not have the effect of significantly  changing or influencing
the control of the Company on a permanent basis.

         3.4 Limits on  Authority.  Exercise by the  Committee of its  authority
shall be  consistent  (a) with the intent that all  Incentive  Stock  Options be
qualified  under the terms of Section  422 of the Code,  and (b) with the intent
that the Plan be administered in a manner so that, to the extent  possible,  the
grant of Options and all other transactions with respect to the Plan, to Options
and to any Common Stock acquired upon exercise of Options,  shall be exempt from
the operation of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.

         3.5 Exercise of Authority.  Each action and determination made or taken
by the Committee,  including but not limited to any  interpretation  of the Plan
and the  Option  Agreements,  shall be final,  conclusive  and  binding  for all
purposes and upon all persons.  No member of the  Committee  shall be liable for
any action or determination made or taken by the member or the Committee in good
faith.

                                    Article 4
                           SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

         4.1 Number of Shares.  Subject to the provisions of this Article 4, the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which Options may be granted during
the term of the Plan shall be one million (1,000,000).  In addition, the maximum
number of  shares of Common  Stock  for  which  Options  may be  granted  to any
Eligible  Person  during  any  calendar  year  shall  be five  hundred  thousand
(500,000)  (such  maximum  number of shares  will be  referred to as the "Annual
Grant Limit"). Shares of Common Stock will be made available from the authorized
but unissued shares of the Company or from shares reacquired by the Company.  If
an Option  terminates  for any reason without having been exercised in full, the
shares of Common Stock for which the Option has not been  exercised  shall again
be available for purposes of the Plan.

         4.2 Adjustments.  If the Company  subdivides its outstanding  shares of
Common Stock into a greater  number of shares (by stock  dividend,  stock split,
reclassification  or  otherwise)  or combines its  outstanding  shares of Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares (by reverse stock split,  reclassification
or  otherwise),  or  if  the  Committee  determines  that  any  stock  dividend,
extraordinary cash dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization,
split-up, spin-off,  combination,  exchange of shares, rights offering, or other
transaction  or event that is not an Approved  Transaction  or Control  Purchase
affects  the  Common  Stock  such that an  adjustment  is  required  in order to
preserve the benefits or potential  benefits intended to be made available under
the Plan,  then the  Committee  shall,  in such  manner as it  determines  to be
equitable  and  appropriate,  adjust  any or all of (a) the  number of shares of
Common Stock (or number and kind of other securities or property) for which, and
the time or times when, outstanding Options may thereafter be exercised; (b) the
purchase  price  for  the  shares  (or  other   securities  or  property)  under
outstanding  Options;  (c) the  number of shares of Common  Stock (or number and
kind of other  securities  or  property)  for which  Options may  thereafter  be
granted,  and (d) the  number of shares of Common  Stock (or  number and kind of
other  securities or property) that will thereafter  constitute the Annual Grant
Limit.  In connection with any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.2, the
Committee may, if deemed equitable and  appropriate,  provide for a cash payment
to be made to the Holder of an Option,  in cancellation  of the Option,  of such
amount as the Committee  determines  represents  the value the Option would then
have if it were exercisable for all of the shares under the Option.

                                    Article 5
                                   ELIGIBILITY

The  persons  eligible  to  participate  in  the  Plan  and to  receive  Options
("Eligible  Persons")  shall be persons who are performing or have been hired to
perform Service for the Company or any of its Affiliates.

                                    Article 6
                                  STOCK OPTIONS

         6.1 Grant of Options.  The Committee  shall from time to time determine
(a) the Eligible  Persons to whom  Options are to be granted;  (b) the number of
shares of Common  Stock for which the Options are  exercisable  and the purchase
price of such shares;  (c) whether the Options are  Incentive  Stock  Options or
Nonqualified  Stock Option; and (d) all of the other terms and conditions (which
need  not be  identical)  of the  Options;  provided,  however,  that  all  such
determinations shall be subject to the express limitations of the Plan.

         6.2  Purchase  Price.  The price at which shares of Common Stock may be
purchased upon exercise of an Option may be more than, less than or equal to the
Fair  Market  Value of the shares on the date the Option is  granted;  provided,
however,  that  the  purchase  price  of each  share of  Common  Stock  under an
Incentive  Stock  Option  shall be (a) at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of
such  share  on the  date of  grant of the  Option,  if it is  granted  to a 10%
Shareholder, and (b) at least 100% of the Fair Market Value of such share on the
date of grant of the Option, if it is granted to any other Eligible Person.

         6.3      Limitations on Incentive Stock Options.

                  (a) Grants Only to Employees. Incentive Stock Options may only
be granted to Eligible  Persons who are employees of the Company or an Affiliate
that constitutes a "parent corporation" or a "subsidiary corporation" within the
meaning of Section 424 of the Code.

                  (b)  Limitation on Shares.  The aggregate Fair Market Value of
the shares of Common  Stock for which,  during any  calendar  year,  one or more
Incentive  Stock  Options  under the Plan (and/or one or more options  under any
other plan  maintained by the Company or any of its  Affiliates for the granting
of options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Code) become exercisable
for the first  time by a Holder  shall not  exceed  $100,000  (said  value to be
determined  as of the  respective  dates on which the options are granted to the
Holder).  If an Option that would otherwise qualify as an Incentive Stock Option
becomes exercisable for the first time in any calendar year for shares of Common
Stock that would cause such aggregate Fair Market Value to exceed $100,000, then
the  portion of the Option in  respect  of such  shares  shall be deemed to be a
Nonqualified Stock Option.

         6.4 Term of Options. Subject to the provisions of the Plan with respect
to  termination  of  Options  upon  or  following  death,  Disability  or  other
termination of Service,  the Committee  shall determine the term of each Option,
which  term  shall not be more than (a) five (5) years from the date of grant in
the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a 10% Shareholder,  and (b) ten
(10)  years  from the date of grant  in the case of any  other  Incentive  Stock
Option.

         6.5 Option  Agreement.  Each Option  shall be evidenced by an agreement
(the "Option  Agreement")  containing  the terms and conditions of the Option as
determined  by the  Committee.  Each  grantee  of an  Option  shall be  notified
promptly of the grant,  an Option  Agreement  shall be executed and delivered by
the Company to the grantee  within sixty (60) days after the date the  Committee
approves the grant,  and the  Committee  may  terminate  the grant if the Option
Agreement is not signed by the grantee and delivered to the Company within sixty
(60) days after it is delivered to the grantee.  An Option Agreement may contain
(but  shall  not be  required  to  contain)  such  terms and  conditions  as the
Committee  determines to be necessary or  appropriate to ensure that the penalty
provisions  of Section 4999 of the Code will not apply to any stock  received by
the Holder from the  Company.  An Option  Agreement  may be amended from time to
time pursuant to Section 7.6(c).

         6.6      Exercise of Options.

                  (a) Time  Exercisable.  An  Option  shall  become  and  remain
exercisable  to the extent  provided  in its Option  Agreement  and in the Plan.
However,  if an Option is granted  prior to the date its Holder  first  performs
Service  for the  Company  or any of its  Affiliates,  the  Option  shall not be
exercisable  prior to the date the Holder first  performs  such  Service.  If an
Option is scheduled to become  exercisable on one or more dates specified in its
Option  Agreement,  and its Holder has a leave of absence without pay, such date
or dates  shall be  postponed  for a period  equal to the  duration of the leave
unless the Committee determines otherwise.

                  (b)  Manner of  Exercise.  An  Option  shall be  exercised  by
written notice to the Company in compliance with the terms and conditions of its
Option  Agreement and such  procedures  for exercise of Options as the Committee
may adopt from time to time.  The  method or methods of payment of the  purchase
price of the  shares to be  purchased  upon  exercise  of the  Option and of any
amounts  required by Section 7.8 shall be  determined  by the  Committee and set
forth in the Option Agreement for the Option. Such method or methods may consist
of (i) check,  (ii) promissory  note, (iii) whole shares of Common Stock already
owned by the Holder,  (iv) the  withholding  of shares of Common Stock  issuable
upon exercise of the Option, (v) the delivery, together with a properly executed
exercise notice, of irrevocable  instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to
the Company  the amount of sale or loan  proceeds  required to pay the  purchase
price, (vi) any combination of the foregoing  methods of payment,  or (vii) such
other  consideration  and method of payment as may be permitted for the issuance
of shares under applicable  securities and other laws. The Committee may specify
a  minimum  number of  shares  of  Common  Stock  for  which an  Option  must be
exercised, but such minimum shall not prevent exercise of an Option for the full
number of shares for which it is exercisable.

                  (c)  Value of  Shares.  Shares of Common  Stock  delivered  in
payment of all or any part of the amounts  payable  upon  exercise of an Option,
and shares of Common Stock  withheld for such payment,  shall be valued at their
Fair Market Value on the exercise date of the Option.

                  (d) Issuance of Shares.  The Company shall issue the shares of
Common Stock purchased  under an Option as soon as practicable  after the Option
has been duly exercised;  provided,  however, that no fractional shares shall be
issuable  under the Plan,  and any  fractional  shares that would  otherwise  be
issuable shall be disregarded.  Following exercise of an Incentive Stock Option,
the Committee shall cause the information  statement required by Section 6039 of
the Code to be  furnished  to the  Holder  within  the  time  and in the  manner
prescribed by law.

         6.7  Legends.  Each  certificate  representing  shares of Common  Stock
issued  upon  exercise  of an  Option  shall,  unless  the  Committee  otherwise
determines,  contain  on its face  the  notice  "SEE  TRANSFER  RESTRICTIONS  ON
REVERSE" and on its reverse a legend in form substantially as follows,  together
with any other  legends that are required by the  provisions of the Plan or that
the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate:

                  NOTICE:  TRANSFER AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS

                           THE SECURITIES  REPRESENTED BY THIS  CERTIFICATE HAVE
                  NOT BEEN  REGISTERED  UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, OR ANY
                  STATE  SECURITIES   LAWS,  AND  MAY  NOT  BE  OFFERED,   SOLD,
                  TRANSFERRED,  ENCUMBERED, OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT UPON
                  SATISFACTION  OF CERTAIN  CONDITIONS.  INFORMATION  CONCERNING
                  THESE  RESTRICTIONS MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE CORPORATION.  ANY
                  OFFER OR DISPOSITION OF THESE SECURITIES WITHOUT  SATISFACTION
                  OF SAID  CONDITIONS  WILL BE WRONGFUL AND WILL NOT ENTITLE THE
                  TRANSFEREE TO REGISTER  OWNERSHIP OF THE  SECURITIES  WITH THE
                  CORPORATION.

                           THE SECURITIES  REPRESENTED BY THIS  CERTIFICATE  ARE
                  ALSO SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS  ON TRANSFER,  AND MAY BE SUBJECT
                  TO  REPURCHASE  BY  THE  CORPORATION  OR ONE  OR  MORE  OF ITS
                  SHAREHOLDERS,   OR   RIGHTS   OF   FIRST   REFUSAL   OR  OTHER
                  RESTRICTIONS,  PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE CORPORATION'S
                  1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN AND/OR AN AGREEMENT  BETWEEN THE HOLDER
                  AND THE CORPORATION AND/OR AN AGREEMENT AMONG THE SHAREHOLDERS
                  OF THE CORPORATION.  INFORMATION CONCERNING THESE RESTRICTIONS
                  MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE CORPORATION.

The Company may cause the  transfer  agent for the Common  Stock to place a stop
transfer order with respect to such shares.

         6.8  Transferability.  Except to the extent the  Committee  limits this
Section 6.8 at the time an Option is granted,  the original Holder of the Option
may transfer the Option to any Permitted Transferee,  so long as the transfer is
without  value,  and the Permitted  Transferee  may transfer the Option  without
value to any other Permitted  Transferee of the original  Holder.  Neither (a) a
transfer  under a domestic  relations  order in settlement  of marital  property
rights,  nor (b) a transfer to an entity in which more than fifty  percent (50%)
of the voting  interests  are owned by  Permitted  Transferees  (or the original
Holder) in exchange for an interest in that entity,  will  constitute a transfer
for value. Except as expressly permitted by this Section 6.8, an Option will not
be  transferable  by its Holder other than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution,  will not be involuntarily alienable by legal process or otherwise
by operation of law, and will be exercisable  during the Holder's  lifetime only
by the Holder.  If the Holder of an Option dies prior to its full exercise,  the
Option may be  exercised,  to the extent it does not thereby  terminate,  by the
person or persons to whom the rights of the holder under the Option pass by will
or by applicable laws of descent and distribution..

         6.9 Market  Stand-Off  Agreement.  By accepting  an Option,  the Holder
shall be deemed to have agreed  that,  for a period of one hundred  eighty (180)
days  after the  effective  date of any  Registration  Statement  filed with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission pursuant to the Securities Act in connection
with a firm commitment  underwritten offering covering the offer and sale to the
public of Common Stock for the account of the  Company,  the Holder will not, if
the Holder is in the  Service of the  Company or any of its  Affiliates  on such
effective  date  and any  managing  underwriter  in the  offering  so  requests,
directly or indirectly  (through any put, short sale, collar or other derivative
security or financial  instrument) sell or offer to sell or otherwise dispose of
any shares of Common Stock, or any securities  convertible  into or exchangeable
for, or any rights to purchase  or  acquire,  Common  Stock owned by the Holder,
whether owned on such effective date or thereafter  acquired,  without the prior
written consent of each managing underwriter in the offering,  which consent may
be withheld at the sole discretion of any managing underwriter.

         6.10 Delegation to Executive Officer of Authority to Grant Options. The
Board may delegate to an Executive  Officer the authority to determine from time
to time (a) the  Eligible  Persons to whom  Options are to be  granted;  (b) the
number of shares of Common Stock for which the Options are  exercisable  and the
purchase  price of such  shares;  (c) whether the  Options are  Incentive  Stock
Options  or  Nonqualified  Stock  Options;  and (d) all of the  other  terms and
conditions (which need not be identical) of the Options; provided, however, that
(i) the  authority  delegated to the  Executive  Officer under this Section 6.10
shall not exceed that of the Committee  under the  foregoing  provisions of this
Article  6 and  shall be  subject  to such  limitations,  in  addition  to those
specified in this Section  6.10, as may be specified by the Board at the time of
delegation; (ii) the Executive Officer may not be delegated authority under this
Section 6.10 to grant any Option to any person who is an Executive  Officer or a
director of the Company at the time of the grant;  (iii) the  purchase  price of
each share of Common Stock under an Option granted under this Section 6.10 shall
not be less than the Fair Market Value of such share on the date of grant of the
Option;  and (iv) the Executive  Officer shall promptly  provide a report to the
Committee of each person to whom an Option has been  granted  under this Section
6.10 and the material terms and conditions of the Option.

                                    Article 7
                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

    The  provisions  of this  Article 7 shall  apply to all  Options, except
to the extent that one or more Option Agreementsexpressly provide otherwise.

         7.1      Termination of Service.

                  (a) General.  If a Holder's Service  terminates  without Cause
prior to the full  exercise of an Option,  then the Option shall  thereafter  be
exercisable, to the extent the Holder was entitled to exercise the Option on the
date of such  termination,  for a period  of three  (3)  months  following  such
termination  (but not later than the end of the term of the  Option);  provided,
however,  that,  if the  Holder's  Service  terminates  by  reason  of  death or
Disability,  the  Option  shall  be  exercisable  for a  period  of one (1) year
following  such  termination  (but  not  later  than  the end of the term of the
Option). At the end of such period, the Option shall terminate.

                  (b) Termination for Cause. If a Holder's Service is terminated
for Cause,  then all Options  held by the Holder  shall  immediately  terminate.
Following  termination of a Holder's  Service,  if the Holder engages in any act
that would have  constituted  Cause if the Holder had remained in the Service of
the Company or any of its  Affiliates,  then the Committee  shall be entitled to
terminate any Options held by the Holder.

                  (c) Miscellaneous. The Committee may determine whether a leave
of  absence of a Holder  constitutes  a  termination  of the  Holder's  Service;
provided,  however,  that  neither (i) a leave of absence,  duly  authorized  in
writing  by the  Company  or  any of its  Affiliates  for  military  service  or
sickness,  or for  any  other  purpose  approved  by the  Company  or any of its
Affiliates,  if the period of the leave does not exceed  ninety  (90) days,  nor
(ii) a leave of  absence  in excess of ninety  (90)  days,  duly  authorized  in
writing by the Company or any of its Affiliates,  provided the Holder's right to
return to Service  with the Company or the  Affiliate  is  guaranteed  either by
statute or by contract,  shall be deemed a termination of the Holder's  Service.
An Option shall not be affected by any change in the Holder's Service so long as
the  Holder  continues  to be in  the  Service  of  the  Company  or  any of its
Affiliates.  If a Holder is in the Service of an  Affiliate  of the Company that
ceases to be an Affiliate,  such event shall, for purposes of any Option held by
the Holder,  be deemed to constitute a termination of the Holder's Service for a
reason other than death or Disability.

         7.2      Certain Events.

                  (a) Control Purchase.  Effective upon a Control  Purchase,  if
the  Holder  of an  Option  is in  the  Service  of  the  Company  or any of its
Affiliates at that time, the Option shall  automatically  become exercisable for
all of the shares under the Option.

                  (b) Approved Transaction. The following provisions shall apply
if an Approved Transaction occurs:

                           (i)   The Company  shall  provide  each  Holder  with
notice of the pendency of the Approved  Transaction  at least  fifteen (15) days
before the expected date of consummation thereof (the date on which the Approved
Transaction is consummated will be referred to as the "Transaction Date").

                           (ii)  Effective  immediately  before the  Transaction
Date,  if the Holder of an Option is in the Service of the Company or any of its
Affiliates  on the  Transaction  Date,  the Option  shall  automatically  become
exercisable for all of the shares under the Option.

                           (iii) Following  notice of the Approved  Transaction,
any exercise of an Option may be contingent  upon  consummation  of the Approved
Transaction, if so elected by the Holder in the notice of exercise, and shall be
contingent upon such consummation with respect to any portion of the Option that
will only become exercisable immediately before the Transaction Date.

                           (iv)  Subject to Section 7.2(b)(v), upon consummation
of the Approved Transaction, all Options shall terminate.

                           (v)  If an Approved Transaction is an Equity-Based
Approved Transaction, then Section 7.2(b)(iv) shall not apply and the following
provisions shall apply instead:

                                    (A)     The Company shall,  or  shall  cause
another party to the Approved Transaction to, either --

                                            (1)   make appropriate provision for
continuation of the Option, or for replacement of the Option with a new award on
terms  that are,  as nearly as  practicable,  the  financial  equivalent  of the
Option,  taking  into  account in either  event any  automatic  acceleration  of
exercisability provided for in Section 7.2(b)(ii) (the Option as so continued or
replaced shall be referred to as a "ContinuingOption"); or

                                            (2)   deliver to the  Holder  equity
securities  of the Company or another  party to the  Approved  Transaction  (the
"Replacement Securities") having a value equal to the value of the Option on the
Transaction   Date,   taking  into  account  any   automatic   acceleration   of
exercisability provided for in Section 7.2(b)(ii).

                                    (B)     At the  time  the  Holder  is  given
notice of the pendency of the Approved Transaction under Section 7.2(b)(i) or in
a separate notice given before the Transaction  Date, the Committee shall inform
the Holder of the  provision to be made for a Continuing  Option or for delivery
of Replacement  Securities.  Effective  automatically  upon  consummation of the
Approved  Transaction  and without any action by the  Holder,  the Option  shall
represent the Continuing  Option (if provision is made for a Continuing  Option)
or terminate (if Replacement Securities are to be delivered).

         7.3 Right to Terminate Service. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any
Option  Agreement,  and no action of the Company or the  Committee  with respect
thereto,  shall confer on any Holder any right to continue in the Service of the
Company or any of its  Affiliates  or interfere in any way with the right of the
Company or any of its  Affiliates,  subject to the terms and  conditions  of any
agreement  between  the Holder  and the  Company  or any of its  Affiliates,  to
terminate at any time, with or without Cause, the Service of the Holder.

         7.4 Nonalienation of Benefits.  Except as permitted pursuant to Section
6.8,  no right or benefit  under the Plan or any Option  shall be (a) subject to
anticipation,  alienation,  sale, assignment,  hypothecation,  pledge, exchange,
transfer, encumbrance or charge (and any attempt to anticipate,  alienate, sell,
assign,  hypothecate,  pledge, exchange,  transfer,  encumber or charge the same
shall  be  void);  or  (b)  liable  for or  subject  to  the  debts,  contracts,
liabilities or torts of the person entitled to the right or benefit.

         7.5 Shareholders  Agreement. If requested by the Company, the Holder of
an Option shall be required,  as a condition to issuance of the shares of Common
Stock that the Holder  acquires  upon  exercise  of the  Option,  to execute and
deliver to the Company a shareholders  agreement in such form as may be required
by the Company at the time of such exercise, or a counterpart thereof,  together
with,  unless the Holder is  unmarried,  a spousal  consent in the form required
thereby,  unless the Holder has previously executed and delivered such documents
and they are in effect at the time of  exercise  and apply by their terms to the
shares to be issued.

         7.6      Termination and Amendment.

                  (a) Termination.  The Plan shall terminate on the tenth (10th)
anniversary  of the Effective  Date;  provided,  however,  that the Board or the
Committee  may terminate the Plan at any earlier time. No Options may be granted
following termination of the Plan, but the provisions of the Plan shall continue
in effect until all Options terminate or are exercised in full and all rights of
all persons with any interest in the Plan expire.

                  (b)  Amendment of Plan.  The Board or the  Committee  may from
time to time amend the Plan, whether before of after termination of the Plan, in
such  respects  as it shall deem  advisable;  provided,  however,  that any such
amendment (i) shall comply with all applicable  laws and stock exchange  listing
requirements,  and (ii) with respect to Incentive Stock Options granted or to be
granted under the Plan,  shall be subject to any approval by shareholders of the
Company  required under the Code. No amendment of the Plan may adversely  affect
the  rights of the  Holder of an Option in any  material  way  unless the Holder
consents thereto.

                  (c)  Amendment of Options.  The Committee may amend the Option
Agreement for an Option in such respects as it shall deem  advisable,  including
but not  limited to any  amendment  that would  accelerate  the time or times at
which the Option may be exercised or extend the  scheduled  termination  date of
the Option;  provided,  however,  that (i) no amendment may adversely affect the
rights of the  Holder of the  Option  in any  material  way  unless  the  Holder
consents thereto, and (ii) the Option Agreement,  as amended,  shall satisfy all
of the  requirements  of the Plan at the time of the amendment.  Nothing in this
Section 7.6 shall prevent the Committee  from  adopting,  amending or rescinding
rules, regulations and procedures pursuant to Section 3.3.

         7.7      Government and Other Regulations.

                  (a) The  obligation of the Company with respect to Options and
the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise  thereof  shall be subject to all
applicable  laws,  rules and regulations and such approvals by any  governmental
agencies as may be required,  including but not limited to the  effectiveness of
any registration  statement required under the Securities Act, and the rules and
regulations of any securities exchange or  over-the-counter  market on which the
Common Stock may be listed or quoted.  The Company  shall have no  obligation to
register  shares of Common Stock  issuable  upon  exercise of Options  under the
Securities Act or to register, qualify or list such shares under the laws of any
state  or  other  jurisdiction  or the  rules  of  any  securities  exchange  or
over-the-counter market.

                  (b) As long as the Common  Stock is not  registered  under the
Exchange  Act,  the  Company  intends  that all offers and sales of Options  and
shares of Common Stock  issuable  upon  exercise of Options shall be exempt from
registration  under the provisions of Section 5 of the  Securities  Act, and the
Plan shall be  administered  in a manner so as to preserve such  exemption.  The
Company  also  intends  that the Plan shall  constitute  a written  compensatory
benefit plan, within the meaning of Rule 701(b) promulgated under the Securities
Act,  and that  each  Option  granted  at a time  when the  Common  Stock is not
registered  under the  Exchange  Act shall,  unless  otherwise  specified by the
Committee  at the time the  Option  is  granted  or at any time  thereafter,  be
granted in reliance  on the  exemption  from the  registration  requirements  of
Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by Rule 701.

         7.8 Withholding.  By accepting an Option, the Holder shall be deemed to
have agreed to pay,  or make  arrangements  satisfactory  to the  Committee  for
payment to the Company  of, all taxes  required to be withheld by the Company in
connection  with the  exercise  of the  Option  or any sale,  transfer  or other
disposition  of any shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the Option.
If the  Holder  shall  fail to pay,  or make  arrangements  satisfactory  to the
Committee  for the payment  of, all such  taxes,  then the Company or any of its
Affiliates  shall, to the extent not prohibited by law, have the right to deduct
from any payment of any kind  otherwise due to the Holder an amount equal to any
taxes  of  any  kind  required  to be  withheld  by  the  Company  or any of its
Affiliates with respect to the Option.

         7.9      Severability; Incentive Stock Option Provisions.

                  (a) If any provision of this Plan or any Option Agreement,  on
its  face  or  as  applied  to  any  person  or  circumstance,   is  or  becomes
unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Plan or the Option Agreement,
as the case may be, and the  application  of the  provision to any other person,
circumstance  or  extent,  shall not be  affected,  and this Plan and the Option
Agreement shall continue in force.

                  (b) With respect to Incentive Stock Options,  if the Plan does
not contain any  provision  required to be included  herein under Section 422 of
the Code, such provision shall be deemed to be incorporated herein with the same
force and effect as if such provision had been set out in full herein; provided,
however,  that to the  extent  any  Option  that is  intended  to  qualify as an
Incentive Stock Option cannot so qualify,  the Option, to that extent,  shall be
deemed to be a Nonqualified Stock Option for all purposes of the Plan.

         7.10 Plan Not Exclusive.  Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board
nor any submission of the Plan to the  shareholders  of the Company for approval
shall be  construed  as creating  any  limitations  on the power of the Board to
adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable,  including but
not limited to the granting of stock  options and the awarding of stock and cash
outside of the Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or
applicable only in specific cases.

         7.11  Exclusion  from  Pension  and  Profit-Sharing   Computation.   By
accepting  an Option,  the Holder shall be deemed to have agreed that the Option
is special incentive  compensation  that will not be taken into account,  in any
manner,  as  salary,  compensation  or bonus in  determining  the  amount of any
payment or other benefit under any pension, retirement or other employee benefit
plan, program or policy of the Company or any of its Affiliates.

         7.12 No  Shareholder  Rights.  No Holder or other person shall have any
voting or other shareholder  rights with respect to shares of Common Stock under
an Option until the Option has been duly exercised, full payment of the purchase
price has been made, all conditions under the Option and the Plan to issuance of
the  shares  have been  satisfied,  and a  certificate  for the  shares has been
issued. No adjustment shall be made for cash or other dividends or distributions
to shareholders for which the record date is before the date of such issuance.

         7.13 Governing  Law. The Plan and all Options shall be governed by, and
interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Washington.

         7.14 Company's Rights. The grant of Options shall not affect in any way
the right or power of the Company to make reclassifications,  reorganizations or
other  changes  of or  to  its  capital  or  business  structure  or  to  merge,
consolidate,  liquidate,  sell or  otherwise  dispose  of all or any part of its
business or assets.
