    shares under the Individual Stock Option Agreement, the price is based upon
    the exercise price set forth in the Individual Stock Option Agreement.

               INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

        General Magic, Inc. (the "Company") hereby incorporates by reference in
this registration statement the following documents:

        (a) The Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K filed pursuant to
Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), containing audited financial statements for the Company's
latest fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 31, 1999.

        (b) All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act since the end of the fiscal year covered by the registrant document
referred to in (a) above.

        (c) The description of the Company's Common Stock contained in the
Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed under the Exchange Act,
including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such
description.

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

Item 4.  Description of Securities

the Exchange Act.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

        Inapplicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

        Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a
corporation to include in its charter documents and in agreements with its
directors and officers provisions expanding the scope of indemnification beyond
that specifically provided by the Delaware law. The Company's Bylaws provide
that the Company shall indemnify to the full extent authorized by law any person
made or threatened to be made a party to an action or a proceeding, whether
criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he
or she, his or her testator or intestate was or is a director, officer or
employee of the Company or any predecessor of the Company or serves or served
any other enterprise as a director, officer or employee at the request of the
Company or a predecessor of the Company. The Company's Bylaws also provide that
the Company may enter into one or more agreements with any person which provides
for


                                       3
<PAGE>   4

indemnification greater or different than that provided in such Bylaws. The
Company has entered into such indemnification agreements with its directors and
officers.

        The Company maintains insurance on behalf of any person who is a
director or officer against any loss arising from any claim asserted against him
or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, subject to certain
exclusions.

        See also the undertakings set forth in response to Item 9 herein.

Item 7.  Exemption From Registration Claimed

        Inapplicable.

Item 8.  Exhibits

        See Exhibit Index.

Item 9.  Undertakings

        The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

        (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the Securities Act of 1933;

                (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration
statement; and

                (iii) To include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (l)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

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

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


                                       4
<PAGE>   5

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

        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

        of the Company (the "Series G Preferred"), par value $0.001 per
        share, which shall have the following powers, rights,
        preferences and privileges:

1. DIVIDEND RIGHTS.

        a. Holders of Series G Preferred, in preference to the holders of the
Company's common stock, par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock") or any other
capital stock of the Company of any class junior in rank to the Series G
Preferred in respect of the preferences as to the distributions and payments on
the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company ("Junior Stock") and
on a pari passu basis with the holders of the Company's Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock, the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, the
Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock
and any other classes or series of preferred stock of the Company that are of
equal rank to the Series G Preferred in respect of the preferences as to the
distributions and payments on the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company (the "Pari Passu Stock"), shall be entitled to receive, when, if and as
declared by the Board of Directors, cash dividends at the rate of seven percent
(7%) of $10,000 per annum on each outstanding share of Series G Preferred (as
adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and
the like with respect to such shares). Dividends shall be declared and set aside
out of funds or assets of the Company legally available therefor. Such dividends
shall be payable only upon resolution of the Board of Directors and shall be
noncumulative.

        b. So long as any shares of Series G Preferred shall be outstanding, no
dividend, whether in cash or property, shall be paid or declared, nor shall any
other distribution be made, on any Junior Stock, nor shall any shares of any
Junior Stock of the Company be purchased, redeemed, or otherwise acquired for
value by the Company (except for acquisitions of Common Stock by the Company
pursuant to a repurchase plan approved


<PAGE>   2


by the Board of Directors or pursuant to agreements which permit the Company to
repurchase such shares upon termination of services to the Company or in
exercise of the Company's right of first refusal upon a proposed transfer) until
all dividends (set forth in Section 1(a) above) on the Series G Preferred shall
have been paid or declared and set apart. In the event dividends are paid on any
share of Common Stock, an additional dividend shall be paid with respect to all
outstanding shares of Series G Preferred in an amount equal per share (on an
as-if-converted to Common Stock basis) to the amount paid or set aside for each
share of Common Stock. The provisions of this Section 1(b) shall not, however,
apply to (i) a dividend payable in Common Stock, (ii) the acquisition of shares
of any Junior Stock in exchange for shares of any other Junior Stock, or (iii)
any repurchase of any outstanding securities of the Company that is unanimously
approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

2. VOTING RIGHTS. The holders of shares of Series G Preferred shall vote
together with the Common Stock as though part of that class and shall be
entitled to vote on all matters and shall be entitled to that number of votes
equal to the largest number of whole shares of Common Stock into which such
holder's shares of Series G Preferred could be converted under Section 4 hereof
at the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote on
such matter or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is
taken or any written consent of stockholders is solicited. The holders of shares
of Series G Preferred shall be entitled to vote as a separate class on any
matter as to which such class would be entitled to vote under applicable law,
and as provided in Section 5 below.

3. LIQUIDATION RIGHTS.

        a. Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company,
whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series G Preferred shall be
entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company before any distribution or
payment shall be made to the holders of any Junior Stock and on a pari passu
basis with the Pari Passu Stock, an amount per share of Series G Preferred equal
to $10,000 (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits,
recapitalizations and the like with respect to such shares), plus any declared
and unpaid dividends, for each share of Series G Preferred held by them. If,
upon any such liquidation, distribution, or winding up, the assets of the
Company shall be insufficient to make payment in full to all holders of Series G
Preferred and the Pari Passu Stock of the liquidation preference set forth in
this Section 3(a), then such assets shall be distributed among the holders of
Series G Preferred and the Pari Passu Stock at the time outstanding, ratably in
proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively
entitled.

        b. The following events shall be considered a liquidation under this
Section:

                i. any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any
        other corporation or other entity or person, or any other corporate
        reorganization, in which the stockholders of the Company immediately
        prior to such consolidation, merger or reorganization, own less than a
        majority of the Company's voting


                                       2
<PAGE>   3

        power immediately after such consolidation, merger or reorganization (an
        "Acquisition"); or

                ii. a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
        Company (an "Asset Transfer").

4. CONVERSION RIGHTS. The holders of the Series G Preferred shall have the
following rights with respect to the conversion of the Series G Preferred into
shares of Common Stock (the "Conversion Rights"):

        a. OPTIONAL CONVERSION. Subject to and in compliance with the provisions
of this Section 4, any shares of Series G Preferred may, at the option of the
holder, be converted at any time into fully-paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock to which a holder of Series G
Preferred shall be entitled upon conversion shall be the product obtained by
multiplying the "Series G Preferred Conversion Rate" then in effect (determined
as provided in Section 4(c)) by the number of shares of Series G Preferred being
converted.

        b. MANDATORY CONVERSION. All outstanding shares of Series G Preferred
shall be converted automatically into the number of shares of Common Stock into
which such shares of Series G Preferred are convertible pursuant to Section 4(a)
hereof upon the consent of the holders of at least fifty percent (50%) of the
Series G Preferred then outstanding, without any further action by the holders
of such shares.

        c. SERIES G PREFERRED CONVERSION RATE. The conversion rate in effect at
any time for conversion of the Series G Preferred (the "Series G Preferred
Conversion Rate") shall be the quotient obtained by dividing $10,000 by the
"Series G Preferred Conversion Price," calculated as provided in Section 4(d).

        d. SERIES G PREFERRED CONVERSION PRICE. The conversion price for the
Series G Preferred shall initially be $1.684 (the "Series G Preferred Conversion
Price"). Such initial Series G Preferred Conversion Price shall be adjusted from
time to time in accordance with this Section 4. All references to the Series G
Preferred Conversion Price herein shall mean the Series G Preferred Conversion
Price as so adjusted.

        e. MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. Each holder of Series G Preferred who
desires to convert the same into shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section
4 shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at
the office of the Company or any transfer agent for the Series G Preferred, and
shall give written notice to the Company at such office that such holder elects
to convert the same. Such notice shall state the number of shares of Series G
Preferred being converted. As promptly as practicable after the Series G
Preferred Conversion Date (as defined below), the Company shall issue and shall
deliver to the holder of shares of Series G Preferred being converted, such
certificate or certificates as it may request for the number of whole shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such Series G Preferred in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 4. Such conversion shall be
deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the
Series G Preferred Conversion


                                       3
<PAGE>   4

Date. At such time, the rights of the holder as holder of the converted shares
of Series G Preferred shall cease and the person or persons in whose name or
names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be
issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or
holders of record of the shares of Common Stock represented thereby.

        "Series G Conversion Date" means: (i) the date when such written notice
required by Section 4(e) is received by the Company, together with the
certificate or certificates representing the shares of Series G Preferred being
converted, or (ii) the date on which any event occurs causing a mandatory
conversion of the shares of Series G Preferred pursuant to Section 4(b).

        f. ADJUSTMENT FOR STOCK SPLITS AND COMBINATIONS. If the Company shall at
any time or from time to time after the date that the first share of Series G
Preferred is issued (the "Original Issue Date") effect a subdivision of the
outstanding Common Stock without a corresponding subdivision of the Series G
Preferred, the Series G Preferred Conversion Price in effect immediately before
that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. Conversely, if the Company
shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares without a
corresponding combination of the Series G Preferred, the Series G Preferred
Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination shall be
proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 4(f) shall become
effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination
becomes effective.

        g. ADJUSTMENT FOR COMMON STOCK DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. If the
Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date makes, or
fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to
receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common
Stock, in each such event the Series G Preferred Conversion Price that is then
in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event
such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by
multiplying the Series G Preferred Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction
(i) the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of
business on such record date, and (ii) the denominator of which is the total
number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or
distribution; provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such
dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date
fixed therefor, the Series G Preferred Conversion Price shall be recomputed
accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the
Series G Preferred Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section
4(g) to reflect the actual payment of such dividend or distribution.

        h. ADJUSTMENT FOR RECLASSIFICATION, EXCHANGE AND SUBSTITUTION. If at any
time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, the Common Stock
issuable upon


                                       4
<PAGE>   5

the conversion of the Series G Preferred is changed into the same or a different
number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization,
reclassification or otherwise (other than an Acquisition or Asset Transfer as
defined in Section 3(b) or a subdivision or combination of shares or stock
dividend or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided
for elsewhere in this Section 4), in any such event each holder of Series G
Preferred shall have the right thereafter to convert such stock into the kind
and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such
recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series G Preferred
could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization,
reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein
or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof.

        i. REORGANIZATIONS, MERGERS, CONSOLIDATIONS OR SALES OF ASSETS. If at
any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, there is a capital
reorganization of the Common Stock (other than an Acquisition or Asset Transfer
as defined in Section 3(b) or a recapitalization, subdivision, combination,
reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares provided for elsewhere in
this Section 4), as a part of such capital reorganization, provision shall be
made so that the holders of the Series G Preferred shall thereafter be entitled
to receive upon conversion of the Series G Preferred the number of shares of
stock or other securities or property of the Company to which a holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been
entitled on such capital reorganization, subject to adjustment in respect of
such stock or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate
adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 4
with respect to the rights of the holders of Series G Preferred after the
capital reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section 4
(including adjustment of the Series G Preferred Conversion Price then in effect
and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Series G Preferred)
shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.

        j. CERTIFICATE OF ADJUSTMENT. In each case of an adjustment or
readjustment of the Series G Preferred Conversion Price for the number of shares
of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion of the Series G
Preferred, if the Series G Preferred is then convertible pursuant to this
Section 4, the Company, at its expense, shall compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the provisions hereof and prepare a certificate
showing such adjustment or readjustment, and shall mail such certificate, by
first class mail, postage prepaid, to each registered holder of Series G
Preferred at the holder's address as shown in the Company's books. The
certificate shall set forth such adjustment or readjustment, showing in detail
the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a
statement of (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Series G Preferred
Conversion Price at the time in effect and (iii) the type and amount, if any, of
other property which at the time would be received upon conversion of the Series
G Preferred.

        k. NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. Upon (i) any taking by the Company of a
record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining
the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other
distribution, or (ii) any Acquisition (as


                                       5
<PAGE>   6

defined in Section 3(b)) or other capital reorganization of the Company, any
reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company, any
merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation, or
any Asset Transfer (as defined in Section 3(b)), or any voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, the Company shall mail to
each holder of Series G Preferred at least ten (10) days prior to the record
date specified therein (or such shorter period approved by a majority of the
outstanding Series G Preferred), a notice specifying (A) the date on which any
such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution and
a description of such dividend or distribution, (B) the date on which any such
Acquisition, reorganization, reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger,
Asset Transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become
effective, and (C) the date, if any, that is to be fixed as to when the holders
of record of Common Stock (or other securities) shall be entitled to exchange
their shares of Common Stock (or other securities) for securities or other
property deliverable upon such Acquisition, reorganization, reclassification,
transfer, consolidation, merger, Asset Transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up.

        l. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be
issued upon conversion of Series G Preferred, and the number of shares of Common
Stock to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share. All shares
of Common Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable upon conversion of more
than one share of Series G Preferred by a holder thereof shall be aggregated for
purposes of determining whether the conversion would result in the issuance of
any fractional share.

        m. RESERVATION OF STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION. The Company shall at
all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares
of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the
shares of the Series G Preferred, such number of its shares of Common Stock as
shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all
outstanding shares of the Series G Preferred. If at any time the number of
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect
the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series G Preferred, the
Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel,
be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to
such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

        n. NOTICES. Any notice required by the provisions of this Section 4
shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (i) upon personal
delivery to the party to be notified, (ii) when sent by confirmed telex or
facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient; if not, then on
the next business day, (iii) five (5) days after having been sent by registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (iv) one (1)
day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying
next day delivery, with written verification of receipt. All notices shall be
addressed to each holder of record at the address of such holder appearing on
the books of the Company.

5. PROTECTIVE PROVISIONS. The approval of the holders of a majority of the then
outstanding Series G Preferred shall be required for (a) any change to this
Certificate of


                                       6
<PAGE>   7

Designations or the Company's Certificate of Incorporation if such action would
adversely alter or change the preferences, rights, privileges or powers of, or
the restrictions provided for the benefit of, the holders of the Series G
Preferred, unless all series of preferred stock are so altered or changed; and
(b) any increase or decrease in the number of authorized shares of Series G
Preferred.

6. NO REISSUANCE OF SERIES G PREFERRED. No share or shares of Series G Preferred
acquired by the Company by reason of redemption, purchase, conversion or
otherwise shall be reissued.

7. ELECTION OF DIRECTOR. The holders of the Series G Preferred, voting as a
separate class, shall have the right to elect one (1) member of the Company's
Board of Directors until the earlier of (i) the date upon which less than 600
shares (as adjusted for stock splits, recombinations, reclassifications and the
like) of Series G Preferred are outstanding, (ii) the date upon which General
Motors Corporation and its Affiliates own less than a majority of the
outstanding shares of Series G Preferred (as adjusted for stock splits,
recombinations, reclassifications and the like), and (iii) the date of
consummation of an Acquisition or Asset Transfer. For purposes hereof, the term
"Affiliates" with respect to General Motors Corporation shall mean Saab
Automobile AB and any entity controlled directly or indirectly by General Motors
Corporation, where "control" means the ownership of more than fifty percent
(50%) of the outstanding voting securities or voting interests of the entity in
question.

                1.2 PURPOSE. The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests
of Company and its stockholders by providing an incentive to attract, retain and
reward Eligible Employees of the Participating Company Group and by motivating
such persons to contribute to the growth and profitability of the Participating

acquire a proprietary interest in the Company through the purchase of Stock. The
Company intends that the Plan qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under
Section 423 of the Code (including any amendments or replacements of such
section), and the Plan shall be so construed.

                1.3 TERM OF PLAN. The Plan shall continue in effect until the
earlier of its termination by the Board or the date on which all of the shares
of Stock available for issuance under the Plan have been issued.

        2. DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION.

                2.1 DEFINITIONS. Any term not expressly defined in the Plan but
defined for purposes of Section 423 of the Code shall have the same definition

day on which the Stock was so traded prior to the relevant date, or such other
appropriate day as determined by the Board, in its discretion. If, on the

Participating Companies.

Section 8, which the Participant may or may not exercise during the Offering
Period in which such option is outstanding. Such option arises from the right of
a Participant to withdraw any accumulated payroll deductions of the Participant
not previously applied to the purchase of Stock under the Plan and to terminate
participation in the Plan at any time during an Offering Period.

provision of the Plan. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the
singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular. Use

requires otherwise.

        3. ADMINISTRATION.

                3.1 ADMINISTRATION BY THE BOARD. The Plan shall be administered
by the Board. All questions of interpretation of the Plan, of any form of
agreement or other document employed by the Company in the administration of the
Plan, or of any Purchase Right shall be determined by the Board and shall be
final and binding upon all persons having an interest in the Plan or the
Purchase Right. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Board shall determine
all of the relevant terms and conditions of Purchase Rights; provided, however,
that all Participants granted Purchase Rights shall have the same rights and
privileges within the meaning of Section 423(b)(5) of the Code. All expenses
incurred in connection with the administration of the Plan shall be paid by the
Company.

                3.2 AUTHORITY OF OFFICERS. Any officer of the Company shall have
the authority to act on behalf of the Company with respect to any matter, right,
obligation, determination or election that is the responsibility of or that is
allocated to the Company herein, provided that the officer has apparent
authority with respect to such matter, right, obligation, determination or
election.

                3.3 POLICIES AND PROCEDURES ESTABLISHED BY THE COMPANY. The
Company may, from time to time, consistent with the Plan and the requirements of
Section 423 of the Code, establish, change or terminate such rules, guidelines,
policies, procedures, limitations, or adjustments as deemed advisable by the
Company, in its discretion, for the proper administration of the Plan,
including, without limitation, (a) a minimum payroll deduction amount required
for participation in an Offering, (b) a limitation on the frequency or number of
changes permitted in the rate of payroll deduction during an Offering, (c) an
exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in a currency other than United
States dollars, (d) a payroll deduction greater than or


                                        4
<PAGE>   5

less than the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for the
Company's delay or mistake in processing a Subscription Agreement or in
otherwise effecting a Participant's election under the Plan or as advisable to
comply with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, and (e) determination
of the date and manner by which the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock is
determined for purposes of administration of the Plan.

        4. SHARES SUBJECT TO PLAN.

                4.1 MAXIMUM NUMBER OF SHARES ISSUABLE. Subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 4.2, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that
may be issued under the Plan shall be one million five thousand (1,005,000) and
shall consist of authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Stock, or any
combination thereof. If an outstanding Purchase Right for any reason expires or
is terminated or canceled, the shares of Stock allocable to the unexercised
portion of that Purchase Right shall again be available for issuance under the
Plan.

                4.2 ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. In the event
of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization,
combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the
Company, or in the event of any merger (including a merger effected for the
purpose of changing the Company's domicile), sale of assets or other
reorganization in which the Company is a party, appropriate adjustments shall be
made in the number and class of shares subject to the Plan and each Purchase
Right and in the Purchase Price. If a majority of the shares of the same class
as the shares subject to outstanding Purchase Rights are exchanged for,
converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership
Change Event) shares of another corporation (the "NEW SHARES"), the Board may
unilaterally amend the outstanding Purchase Rights to provide that such Purchase
Rights are exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the
number of shares subject to, and the Purchase Price of, the outstanding Purchase
Rights shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner, as determined by the
Board, in its discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any fractional share
resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be rounded down
to the nearest whole number, and in no event may the Purchase Price be decreased
to an amount less than the par value, if any, of the stock subject to the
Purchase Right. The adjustments determined by the Board pursuant to this Section
4.2 shall be final, binding and conclusive.

        5. ELIGIBILITY.

                5.1 EMPLOYEES ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE. Each Employee of a
Participating Company is eligible to participate in the Plan and shall be deemed
an Eligible Employee, except the following:

                        (a) Any Employee who is customarily employed by the
Participating Company Group for less than twenty (20) hours per week; or

                        (b) Any Employee who is customarily employed by the
Participating Company Group for not more than five (5) months in any calendar
year; or

                                        5
<PAGE>   6

                        (c) Any Employee who is a highly compensated employee
within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code and who holds the office of
vice president or any higher office, including, but not limited to, the office
of chief executive officer and chief operating officer.

                5.2 EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS. Notwithstanding any
provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Employee shall be granted a Purchase
Right under the Plan if, immediately after such grant, the Employee would own or
hold options to purchase stock of the Company or of any Parent Corporation or
Subsidiary Corporation possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total
combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of such corporation, as
determined in accordance with Section 423(b)(3) of the Code. For purposes of
this Section 5.2, the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall
apply in determining the stock ownership of such Employee.

        6. OFFERINGS.

                6.1 OFFERING PERIODS. The Plan shall be implemented on and after
the Effective Date by two series of Offerings: (a) a series of sequential
Offerings of approximately twelve (12) months duration or such other duration as
the Board shall determine (an "ANNUAL OFFERING PERIOD") and (b) a series of
Offerings of approximately six (6) months duration or such other duration as the
Board shall determine (a "HALF-YEAR OFFERING PERIOD"). Annual Offering Periods
shall commence on or about February 1 of each year and end on or about January
31 of the following year. Half-Year Offering Periods shall commence on or about
August 1 of each year and end on or about January 31 of the following year.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may establish a different duration
effective for one or more future Offering Periods or different commencing or
ending dates for such Offering Periods; provided, however, that no Offering
Period may have a duration exceeding twenty-seven (27) months. If the first or
last day of an Offering Period is not a day on which the national securities
exchanges or Nasdaq Stock Market are open for trading, the Company shall specify
the trading day that will be deemed the first or last day, as the case may be,
of the Offering Period.

                6.2 PURCHASE PERIODS. Each Annual Offering Period shall consist
of two (2) consecutive Purchase Periods of approximately six (6) months
duration, or such other number or duration as the Board shall determine. A
Purchase Period commencing on or about February 1 shall end on or about the next
July 31. A Purchase Period commencing on or about August 1 shall end on or about
the next January 31. Each Half-Year Offering Period shall consist of a single
Purchase Period of approximately six (6) months duration coterminous with such
Offering Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may establish a
different duration effective for one or more future Purchase Periods or
different commencing or ending dates for such Purchase Periods. If the first or
last day of a Purchase Period is not a day on which the national securities
exchanges or Nasdaq Stock Market are open for trading, the Company shall specify
the trading day that will be deemed the first or last day, as the case may be,
of the Purchase Period.

<PAGE>   7

        7. PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN.

                7.1 INITIAL PARTICIPATION. An Eligible Employee may become a
Participant in an Offering Period by delivering a properly completed
Subscription Agreement to the office designated by the Company not later than
the close of business for such office on the Subscription Date established by
the Company for such Offering Period. An Eligible Employee who does not deliver
a properly completed Subscription Agreement to the Company's designated office
on or before the Subscription Date for an Offering Period shall not participate
in the Plan for that Offering Period or for any subsequent Offering Period
unless the Eligible Employee subsequently delivers a properly completed
Subscription Agreement to the appropriate office of the Company on or before the
Subscription Date for such subsequent Offering Period. An Employee who becomes
an Eligible Employee after the Offering Date of an Offering Period shall not be
eligible to participate in that Offering Period but may participate in any
subsequent Offering Period provided the Employee is still an Eligible Employee
as of the Offering Date of such subsequent Offering Period.

                7.2 CONTINUED PARTICIPATION. A Participant shall automatically
participate in the next Offering Period commencing immediately after the final
Purchase Date of each Offering Period in which the Participant participates
provided that the Participant remains an Eligible Employee on the Offering Date
of the new Offering Period and has not either (a) withdrawn from the Plan
pursuant to Section 12.1 or (b) terminated employment as provided in Section 13.
A Participant who may automatically participate in a subsequent Offering Period,
as provided in this Section, is not required to deliver any additional
Subscription Agreement for the subsequent Offering Period in order to continue
participation in the Plan. However, a Participant may deliver a new Subscription
Agreement for a subsequent Offering Period in accordance with the procedures set
forth in Section 7.1 if the Participant desires to change any of the elections
contained in the Participant's then effective Subscription Agreement. Eligible
Employees may not participate simultaneously in more than one Offering.
Accordingly, a Participant in an Annual Offering Period may not participate
simultaneously in the Half-Year Offering Period commencing during the term of an
Annual Offering Period.

        8. RIGHT TO PURCHASE SHARES.

                8.1 GRANT OF PURCHASE RIGHT. Except as set forth below, on the
Offering Date of each Annual Offering Period, each Participant in that Annual
Offering Period shall be granted automatically a Purchase Right consisting of an
option to purchase the lesser of (a) that number of whole shares of Stock
determined by dividing Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) by the Fair Market
Value of a share of Stock on such Offering Date or (b) the Participant's Maximum
Purchase Right, as defined below. Except as set forth below, on the Offering
Date of each Half-Year Offering Period, each Participant in that Half-Year
Offering Period shall be granted automatically a Purchase Right consisting of an
option to purchase the lesser of (a) that number of whole shares of Stock
determined by dividing Twelve Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($12,500) by the
Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such Offering Date or (b) the
Participant's Maximum Purchase Right, as defined below. No Purchase Right shall
be


                                        7
<PAGE>   8

granted on an Offering Date to any person who is not, on such Offering Date, an
Eligible Employee.

                8.2 MAXIMUM PURCHASE RIGHT. A Participant's "MAXIMUM PURCHASE
RIGHT" with respect to any Offering Period means that number of whole shares of
Stock determined by dividing ten percent (10%) of the Participant's anticipated
Compensation for that Offering Period by $8.40 (which is an amount equal to
sixty percent (60%) of the offering price as set forth in the Company's final
prospectus incorporated in its Form S-1 Registration Statement filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission for its initial public offering of Common
Stock). For purposes of this limitation, a Participant's anticipated
Compensation shall be his or her Compensation for the first payday following the
Offering Date of the Offering Period multiplied by the number of paydays in such
Offering Period.

                8.3 PRO RATA ADJUSTMENT OF PURCHASE RIGHT. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 8.1, if the Board establishes an Offering Period of any
duration other than twelve months or six months, then the applicable dollar
amount in Section 8.1 shall be determined by multiplying $2,083.33 by the number
of months (rounded to the nearest whole month) in the Offering Period and
rounding to the nearest whole dollar.

                8.4 CALENDAR YEAR PURCHASE LIMITATION. Notwithstanding any
provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant shall be granted a
Purchase Right which permits his or her right to purchase shares of Stock under
the Plan to accrue at a rate which, when aggregated with such Participant's
rights to purchase shares under all other employee stock purchase plans of a
Participating Company intended to meet the requirements of Section 423 of the
Code, exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) in Fair Market Value (or
such other limit, if any, as may be imposed by the Code) for each calendar year
in which such Purchase Right is outstanding at any time. For purposes of the
preceding sentence, the Fair Market Value of shares purchased during a given
Offering Period shall be determined as of the Offering Date for such Offering
Period. The limitation described in this Section shall be applied in conformance
with applicable regulations under Section 423(b)(8) of the Code.

        9. PURCHASE PRICE.

                The Purchase Price at which each share of Stock may be acquired
in an Offering Period upon the exercise of all or any portion of a Purchase
Right shall be established by the Board; provided, however, that the Purchase
Price shall not be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the lesser of (a) the
Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date of the Offering
Period or (b) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Purchase Date.
Unless otherwise provided by the Board prior to the commencement of an Offering
Period, the Purchase Price for that Offering Period shall be eighty-five percent
(85%) of the lesser of (a) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the
Offering Date of the Offering Period, or (b) the Fair Market Value of a share of
Stock on the Purchase Date.


                                        8

        10. ACCUMULATION OF PURCHASE PRICE THROUGH PAYROLL DEDUCTION.

                Shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of all or any
portion of a Purchase Right may be paid for only by means of payroll deductions
from the Participant's Compensation accumulated during the Offering Period for
which such Purchase Right was granted, subject to the following:

                10.1 AMOUNT OF PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS. Except as otherwise provided
herein, the amount to be deducted under the Plan from a Participant's
Compensation on each payday during an Offering Period shall be determined by the
Participant's Subscription Agreement. The Subscription Agreement shall set forth
the percentage of the Participant's Compensation to be deducted on each payday
during an Offering Period in whole percentages of not less than one percent (1%)
(except as a result of an election pursuant to Section 10.3 to stop payroll
deductions effective following the first payday during an Offering) or more than
ten percent (10%). The Board may change the foregoing limits on payroll
deductions effective as of any future Offering Date. Amounts deducted shall be
reduced by any amounts contributed by the Participant and applied to the
purchase of Company stock pursuant to any other employee stock purchase plan
qualifying under Section 423 of the Code.

                10.2 COMMENCEMENT OF PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS. Payroll deductions
shall commence on the first payday following the Offering Date and shall
continue to the end of the Offering Period unless sooner altered or terminated
as provided herein.

                10.3 ELECTION TO CHANGE OR STOP PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS. During an
Offering Period, a Participant may elect to increase or decrease the rate of or
to stop deductions from his or her Compensation by delivering to the Company's
designated office an amended Subscription Agreement authorizing such change on
or before the Change Notice Date, as defined below. A Participant who elects,
effective following the first payday of an Offering Period, to decrease the rate
of his or her payroll deductions to zero percent (0%) shall nevertheless remain
a Participant in the current Offering Period unless such Participant withdraws
from the Plan as provided in Section 12.1. The "CHANGE NOTICE DATE" shall be a
date prior to the beginning of the first pay period for which such election is
to be effective as established by the Company from time to time and announced to
the Participants. Unless otherwise established by the Company, the Change Notice
Date shall be the seventh (7th) day prior to the end of the first pay period for
which such election is to be effective.

                10.4 ADMINISTRATIVE SUSPENSION OF PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS. The
Company may, in its sole discretion, suspend a Participant's payroll deductions
under the Plan as the Company deems advisable to avoid accumulating payroll
deductions in excess of the amount that could reasonably be anticipated to
purchase the maximum number of shares of Stock permitted (a) under the
Participant's Purchase Right or (b) during a calendar year under the limit set
forth in Section 8.4. Payroll deductions shall be resumed at the rate specified
in the Participant's then effective Subscription Agreement at the beginning,
respectively, of (a) the next Offering Period, provided that the individual is a
Participant in such Offering Period or (b) the next Purchase Period the Purchase
Date of which falls in the following calendar year.

                                        9
<PAGE>   10

                10.5 PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS. Individual bookkeeping accounts shall
be maintained for each Participant. All payroll deductions from a Participant's
Compensation shall be credited to such Participant's Plan account and shall be
deposited with the general funds of the Company. All payroll deductions received
or held by the Company may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose.

                10.6 NO INTEREST PAID. Interest shall not be paid on sums
deducted from a Participant's Compensation pursuant to the Plan, unless the
Board elects to make such payments to all Participants on a non-discriminatory
basis.

                10.7 VOLUNTARY WITHDRAWAL FROM PLAN ACCOUNT. A Participant may
withdraw all or any portion of the payroll deductions credited to his or her
Plan account and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock by
delivering to the Company's designated office a written notice on a form
provided by the Company for such purpose. A Participant who withdraws the entire
remaining balance credited to his or her Plan account shall be deemed to have
withdrawn from the Plan in accordance with Section 12.1. Amounts withdrawn shall
be returned to the Participant as soon as practicable after the withdrawal and
may not be applied to the purchase of shares in any Offering under the Plan. The
Company may from time to time establish or change limitations on the frequency
of withdrawals permitted under this Section, establish a minimum dollar amount
that must be retained in the Participant's Plan account, or terminate the
withdrawal right provided by this Section.

        11. PURCHASE OF SHARES.

                11.1 EXERCISE OF PURCHASE RIGHT. On each Purchase Date of an
Offering Period, each Participant who has not withdrawn from the Plan and whose
participation in the Offering has not terminated before such Purchase Date shall
automatically acquire pursuant to the exercise of the Participant's Purchase
Right the number of whole shares of Stock determined by dividing (a) the total
amount of the Participant's payroll deductions accumulated in the Participant's
Plan account during the Offering Period and not previously applied toward the
purchase of Stock by (b) the Purchase Price. However, in no event shall the
number of shares purchased by the Participant during an Offering Period exceed
the number of shares subject to the Participant's Purchase Right. No shares of
Stock shall be purchased on a Purchase Date on behalf of a Participant whose
participation in the Offering or the Plan has terminated before such Purchase
Date.

                11.2 PRO RATA ALLOCATION OF SHARES. If the number of shares of
Stock which might be purchased by all Participants in the Plan on a Purchase
Date exceeds the number of shares of Stock available in the Plan as provided in
Section 4.1, the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the remaining
shares in as uniform a manner as practicable and as the Company determines to be
equitable. Any fractional share resulting from such pro rata allocation to any
Participant shall be disregarded.


                                       10
<PAGE>   11

                11.3 DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES. As soon as practicable after each
Purchase Date, the Company shall arrange the delivery to each Participant of a
certificate representing the shares acquired by the Participant on such Purchase
Date; provided that the Company may deliver such shares to a broker that holds
such shares in street name for the benefit of the Participant. Shares to be
delivered to a Participant under the Plan shall be registered in the name of the
Participant, or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant
and his or her spouse, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the
Participant.

                11.4 RETURN OF CASH BALANCE. Any cash balance remaining in a
Participant's Plan account following any Purchase Date shall be refunded to the
Participant as soon as practicable after such Purchase Date. However, if the
cash balance to be returned to a Participant pursuant to the preceding sentence
is less than the amount that would have been necessary to purchase an additional
whole share of Stock on such Purchase Date, the Company may retain the cash
balance in the Participant's Plan account to be applied toward the purchase of
shares in the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be.

                11.5 TAX WITHHOLDING. At the time a Participant's Purchase Right
is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time a Participant disposes of some
or all of the shares he or she acquires under the Plan, the Participant shall
make adequate provision for the federal, state, local and foreign tax
withholding obligations, if any, of the Participating Company Group which arise
upon exercise of the Purchase Right or upon such disposition of shares,
respectively. The Participating Company Group may, but shall not be obligated
to, withhold from the Participant's compensation the amount necessary to meet
such withholding obligations.

                11.6 EXPIRATION OF PURCHASE RIGHT. Any portion of a
Participant's Purchase Right remaining unexercised after the end of the Offering
Period to which the Purchase Right relates shall expire immediately upon the end
of the Offering Period.

                11.7 REPORTS AND STOCKHOLDER INFORMATION TO PARTICIPANTS. Each
Participant who has exercised all or part of his or her Purchase Right shall
receive, as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date, a report of such
Participant's Plan account setting forth the total payroll deductions
accumulated prior to such exercise, the number of shares purchased, the Purchase
Price for such shares, the date of purchase and the cash balance, if any,
remaining immediately after such purchase that is to be refunded or retained in
the Participant's Plan account pursuant to Section 11.4. The report required by
this Section may be delivered in such form and by such means, including by
electronic transmission, as the Company may determine. In addition, each
Participant shall be provided information concerning the Company equivalent to
that information generally made available to the Company's common stockholders.

        12. WITHDRAWAL FROM OFFERING OR PLAN.

                12.1 VOLUNTARY WITHDRAWAL FROM THE PLAN. A Participant may
withdraw from the Plan by signing and delivering to the Company's designated
office a written notice of withdrawal on a form provided by the Company for this
purpose. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of an
Offering Period; provided, however, that if a Participant


                                       11
<PAGE>   12

withdraws from the Plan after the Purchase Date of a Purchase Period, the
withdrawal shall not affect shares acquired by the Participant on such Purchase
Date. A Participant who voluntarily withdraws from the Plan is prohibited from
resuming participation in the Plan in the same Offering from which he or she
withdrew, but may participate in any subsequent Offering by again satisfying the
requirements of Sections 5 and 7.1. The Company may impose, from time to time, a
requirement that the notice of withdrawal from the Plan be on file with the
Company's designated office for a reasonable period prior to the effectiveness
of the Participant's withdrawal.

                12.2 AUTOMATIC WITHDRAWAL FROM AN OFFERING. If the Fair Market
Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date of the Half-Year Offering Period
commencing immediately following the first Purchase Date of the concurrent
Annual Offering Period is less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on
the Offering Date of such concurrent Annual Offering Period, then every
Participant in such concurrent Annual Offering Period automatically shall be (a)
withdrawn from the concurrent Annual Offering Period after the acquisition of
shares on the Purchase Date and (b) enrolled in the Half-Year Offering Period
effective on its Offering Date. A Participant may elect not to be automatically
withdrawn from an Annual Offering Period pursuant to this Section 12.2 by
delivering to the Company's designated office not later than the close of
business on Offering Date of the Half-Year Offering Period a written notice
indicating such election.

                12.3 RETURN OF PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS. Upon a Participant's
voluntary withdrawal from the Plan pursuant to Sections 12.1 or automatic
withdrawal from an Offering pursuant to Section 12.2, the Participant's
accumulated payroll deductions which have not been applied toward the purchase
of shares (except, in the case of an automatic withdrawal pursuant to Section
12.2, for an amount necessary to purchase an additional whole share as provided
in Section 11.4) shall be refunded to the Participant as soon as practicable
after the withdrawal, without the payment of any interest (unless otherwise
provided pursuant to Section 10.6), and the Participant's interest in the Plan
or the Offering, as applicable, shall terminate. Such accumulated payroll
deductions to be refunded in accordance with this Section may not be applied to
any other Offering under the Plan.

        13. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR ELIGIBILITY.

                Upon a Participant's ceasing, prior to a Purchase Date, to be an
Employee of the Participating Company Group for any reason, including
retirement, disability or death, or upon the failure of a Participant to remain
an Eligible Employee, the Participant's participation in the Plan shall
terminate immediately. In such event, the payroll deductions credited to the
Participant's Plan account since the last Purchase Date shall, as soon as
practicable, be returned to the Participant or, in the case of the Participant's
death, to the Participant's legal representative, and all of the Participant's
rights under the Plan shall terminate. Interest shall not be paid on sums
returned pursuant to this Section 13 unless otherwise provided pursuant to
Section 10.6. A Participant whose participation has been so terminated may again
become eligible to participate in the Plan by satisfying the requirements of
Sections 5 and 7.1.

        14. CHANGE IN CONTROL.

                14.1 DEFINITIONS.

                        (a) An "OWNERSHIP CHANGE EVENT" shall be deemed to have
occurred if any of the following occurs with respect to the Company: (i) the
direct or indirect sale or exchange in a single or series of related
transactions by the stockholders of the Company of more than fifty percent (50%)
of the voting stock of the Company; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which the
Company is a party; (iii) the sale, exchange, or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) a liquidation or
dissolution of the Company.

                        (b) A "CHANGE IN CONTROL" shall mean an Ownership Change
Event or a series of related Ownership Change Events (collectively, the
"TRANSACTION") wherein the stockholders of the Company immediately before the
Transaction do not retain immediately after the Transaction, in substantially
the same proportions as their ownership of shares of the Company's voting stock
immediately before the Transaction, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of
more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the
outstanding voting stock of the Company or the corporation or corporations to
which the assets of the Company were transferred (the "TRANSFEREE
CORPORATION(s)"), as the case may be. For purposes of the preceding sentence,
indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest
resulting from ownership of the voting stock of one or more corporations which,
as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the Transferee
Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or more
subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine whether
multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or multiple
Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final,
binding and conclusive.

                14.2 EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL ON PURCHASE RIGHTS. In the
event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or
purchasing corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the
"ACQUIRING CORPORATION"), may assume the Company's rights and obligations under
the Plan. If the Acquiring Corporation elects not to assume the Company's rights
and obligations under outstanding Purchase Rights, the Purchase Date of the then
current Purchase Period shall be accelerated to a date before the date of the
Change in Control specified by the Board, but the number of shares of Stock
subject to outstanding Purchase Rights shall not be adjusted. All Purchase
Rights which are neither assumed by the Acquiring Corporation in connection with
the Change in Control nor exercised as of the date of the Change in Control
shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the date of the
Change in Control.

        15. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF PURCHASE RIGHTS.

                A Purchase Right may not be transferred in any manner otherwise
than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable
during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant.

        16. COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAW.

                The issuance of shares under the Plan shall be subject to
compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state and foreign law
with respect to such securities. A Purchase Right may not be exercised if the
issuance of shares upon such exercise would constitute a violation of any
applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations
or the requirements of any securities exchange or market system upon which the
Stock may then be listed. In addition, no Purchase Right may be exercised unless
(a) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, shall
at the time of exercise of the Purchase Right be in effect with respect to the
shares issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Right, or (b) in the opinion of
legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Purchase
Right may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from
the registration requirements of said Act. The inability of the Company to
obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any,
deemed by the Company's legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and
sale of any shares under the Plan shall relieve the Company of any liability in
respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite
authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the exercise of a
Purchase Right, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any
qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with
any applicable law or regulation, and to make any representation or warranty
with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.

        17. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER AND EMPLOYEE.

                A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder by virtue of
the Participant's participation in the Plan until the date of the issuance of a
certificate for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the
Participant's Purchase Right (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books
of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No
adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which
the record date is prior to the date such certificate is issued, except as
provided in Section 4.2. Nothing herein shall confer upon a Participant any
right to continue in the employ of the Participating Company Group or interfere
in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the
Participant's employment at any time.

        18. LEGENDS.

                The Company may at any time place legends or other identifying
symbols referencing any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law
restrictions or any provision convenient in the administration of the Plan on
some or all of the certificates representing shares issued under the Plan. The
Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the
Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to a
Purchase Right in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the
provisions of this Section. Unless otherwise specified by the Company, legends
placed on such certificates may include but shall not be limited to the
following:


                                       14
<PAGE>   15

                "THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED BY THE
CORPORATION TO THE REGISTERED HOLDER UPON THE PURCHASE OF SHARES UNDER AN
EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN AS DEFINED IN SECTION 423 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE
CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED. THE TRANSFER AGENT FOR THE SHARES EVIDENCED HEREBY
SHALL NOTIFY THE CORPORATION IMMEDIATELY OF ANY TRANSFER OF THE SHARES BY THE
REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF. THE REGISTERED HOLDER SHALL HOLD ALL SHARES PURCHASED
UNDER THE PLAN IN THE REGISTERED HOLDER'S NAME (AND NOT IN THE NAME OF ANY
NOMINEE)."

        19. NOTIFICATION OF SALE OF SHARES.

                The Company may require the Participant to give the Company
prompt notice of any disposition of shares acquired by exercise of a Purchase
Right within two years from the date of granting such Purchase Right or one year
from the date of exercise of such Purchase Right. The Company may require that
until such time as a Participant disposes of shares acquired upon exercise of a
Purchase Right, the Participant shall hold all such shares in the Participant's
name (or, if elected by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his
or her spouse but not in the name of any nominee) until the lapse of the time
periods with respect to such Purchase Right referred to in the preceding
sentence. The Company may direct that the certificates evidencing shares
acquired by exercise of a Purchase Right refer to such requirement to give
prompt notice of disposition.

        20. NOTICES.

                All notices or other communications by a Participant to the
Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly
given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by
the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

        21. INDEMNIFICATION.

                In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may
have as members of the Board or officers or employees of the Participating
Company Group, members of the Board and any officers or employees of the
Participating Company Group to whom authority to act for the Board or the
Company is delegated shall be indemnified by the Company against all reasonable
expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily incurred in
connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in connection
with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason
of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan, or
any right granted hereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement
thereof (provided such settlement is approved by independent legal counsel
selected by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any
such action, suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it
shall be adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding that such person is liable
for gross negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct in duties; provided,
however, that within sixty (60) days after the institution of such action, suit
or


                                       15
<PAGE>   16

proceeding, such person shall offer to the Company, in writing, the opportunity
at its own expense to handle and defend the same.

        22. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.

                The Board may at any time amend or terminate the Plan, except
that (a) such termination shall not affect Purchase Rights previously granted
under the Plan, except as permitted under the Plan, and (b) no amendment may
adversely affect a Purchase Right previously granted under the Plan (except to
the extent permitted by the Plan or as may be necessary to qualify the Plan as
an employee stock purchase plan pursuant to Section 423 of the Code or to obtain
qualification or registration of the shares of Stock under applicable federal,
state or foreign securities laws). In addition, an amendment to the Plan must be
approved by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months of the
adoption of such amendment if such amendment would authorize the sale of more
shares than are authorized for issuance under the Plan or would change the
definition of the corporations that may be designated by the Board as
Participating Companies.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Secretary of the Company
certifies that the foregoing sets forth the General Magic, Inc. Amended and
Restated 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan as duly adopted by the Board of
Directors of the Company on March 25, 1999.

NAME (Please print):
                    ------------------------------------------------------------
                      (Last)                (First)                  (Middle)

Original Application for the Offering Period beginning (date):
                                                              ------------------

Change in Payroll Deduction rate effective with the pay period ending
(date):
       -------------------------------------------------------------------------

        I elect to participate in the 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
"PLAN") of General Magic, Inc. (the "COMPANY") and to subscribe to purchase
shares of the Company's Common Stock in accordance with this Subscription
Agreement and the Plan.

        I authorize payroll deductions of __________ percent (in whole
percentages not less than 1%, unless an election to stop deductions is being
made) or more than 10%) of my "COMPENSATION" on each payday throughout the
"OFFERING PERIOD" in accordance with the Plan. I understand that these payroll
deductions will be accumulated for the purchase of shares of Common Stock at the
applicable purchase price determined in accordance with the Plan. Except as
otherwise provided by the Plan, I will automatically purchase shares on each
"PURCHASE DATE" unless I withdraw from the Plan by giving written notice on a
form provided by the Company or unless my employment terminates.

        I understand that I will automatically participate in each subsequent
Offering that commences immediately after the last day of an Offering in which I
am participating until I withdraw from the Plan by giving written notice on a
form provided by the Company or my employment terminates.

        Shares I purchase under the Plan should be issued in the name(s) set
forth below. (Shares may be issued in the participant's name alone or together
with the participant's spouse as community property or in joint tenancy.)

        NAME(S):
                ----------------------------------------------------------------

        ADDRESS:
                ----------------------------------------------------------------

        MY SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER:
                                  ----------------------------------------------

        I agree to make adequate provision for the federal, state, local and
foreign tax withholding obligations, if any, which arise upon my purchase of
shares under the Plan and/or my disposition of shares. The Company may withhold
from my compensation the amount necessary to meet such withholding obligations.

        I agree that, unless otherwise permitted by the Company, until I dispose
of my shares, I will hold the shares I purchase under the Plan in the name(s)
entered above (and not in the name of any nominee) during a period of at least
two years from the first day of the Offering Period in which, and at least one
year from the Purchase Date on which, I acquired such shares.

        I AGREE THAT I WILL NOTIFY THE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER OF THE COMPANY IN
WRITING WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER ANY SALE, GIFT, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF
ANY KIND PRIOR TO THE END OF THE PERIODS REFERRED TO IN THE PRECEDING PARAGRAPH
(A "DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION") OF ANY SHARES I PURCHASED UNDER THE PLAN. IF I
DO NOT RESPOND WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE OF A DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION SURVEY
DELIVERED TO ME BY CERTIFIED MAIL, THE COMPANY IS AUTHORIZED TO TREAT MY
NONRESPONSE AS MY NOTICE TO THE COMPANY OF A DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION AND TO
COMPUTE AND REPORT TO THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE THE ORDINARY INCOME I MUST
RECOGNIZE UPON SUCH DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION.

        I am familiar with the provisions of the Plan and agree to participate
in the Plan subject to all of its provisions. I understand that the Board of
Directors of the Company reserves the right to terminate the Plan or to amend
the Plan and my right to purchase stock under the Plan to the extent provided by
the Plan. I understand that the effectiveness of this Subscription Agreement is
dependent upon my eligibility to participate in the Plan.

        I hereby elect to withdraw from the Offering under the General Magic,
Inc. 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "PLAN") which began on (date)
___________________________ and in which I am currently participating (the
"CURRENT OFFERING").

        ELECT EITHER A OR B BELOW:

[ ]     A.     I elect to terminate immediately my participation in the Current
               Offering and in the Plan.

               I request that the Company cease all further payroll deductions
               from my Compensation under the Plan (provided that I have given
               sufficient notice prior to the next payday). I request that all
               payroll deductions credited to my account under the Plan (if any)
               not previously used to purchase shares under the Plan shall not
               be used to purchase shares on the next Purchase Date of the
               Current Offering. Instead, I request that all such amounts be
               paid to me as soon as practicable. I understand that this
               election immediately terminates my interest in the Current
               Offering and in the Plan.

[ ]     B.     I elect to terminate my participation in the Current Offering and
               in the Plan following my purchase of shares on next Purchase Date
               of the Current Offering.

               I request that the Company cease all further payroll deductions
               from my Compensation under the Plan (provided that I have given
               sufficient notice prior to the next payday). I request that all
               payroll deductions credited to my account under the Plan (if any)
               not previously used to purchase shares under the Plan shall be
               used to purchase shares on the next Purchase Date of the Current
               Offering to the extent permitted by the Plan. I understand that
               this election will terminate my interest in the Current Offering
               and in the Plan immediately following such purchase. I request
               that any cash balance remaining in my account under the Plan
               after my purchase of shares be paid to me as soon as practicable.

        I understand that by making this election I am terminating my interest
in the Plan and that no further payroll deductions will be made (provided that I
have given sufficient notice prior to the next payday) unless I elect in
accordance with the Plan to become a participant in another Offering under the
Plan by filing a new Subscription Agreement with the Company.

                All questions of interpretation concerning this Option Agreement
shall be determined by the Board. All determinations by the Board shall be final

written notice to the Company which must state the election to exercise the
Option, the number of whole shares of Stock for which the Option is being
exercised and such other representations and agreements as to the Optionee's
investment intent with respect to such shares as may be required pursuant to the
provisions of this Option Agreement. The written notice must be signed by the
Optionee and must be delivered in person, by certified or registered mail,
return receipt requested, by confirmed facsimile transmission, or by such other
means as the Company may permit, to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company,
or other authorized representative of the Participating Company Group, prior to
the termination of the Option as set forth in Section 6, accompanied by full
payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock being
purchased. The Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the
Company of such written notice and the aggregate Exercise Price.

        4.3 PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE.

                        (a) FORMS OF CONSIDERATION AUTHORIZED. Except as
otherwise provided below, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number
of shares of Stock for which the Option is being exercised shall be made (i) in
cash, by check, or cash equivalent, (ii) by tender to the Company, or
attestation to the ownership, of whole shares of Stock owned by the Optionee
having a Fair Market Value (as determined by the Company without regard to any
restrictions on transferability applicable to such stock by reason of federal or
state securities laws or agreements with an underwriter for the Company) not
less than the aggregate Exercise Price, (iii) by means of a Cashless Exercise,
as defined in Section 4.3(b), or (iv) by any combination of the foregoing.

                        (b) LIMITATIONS ON FORMS OF CONSIDERATION.

                                (i) TENDER OF STOCK. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or
attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock to the extent such tender or
attestation would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law,
regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company's stock. The
Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the
ownership, of shares of Stock unless such shares either have been owned by the
Optionee for more than six (6) months or were not acquired, directly or
indirectly, from the Company.

                                       4
<PAGE>   5

                                (ii) CASHLESS EXERCISE. A "CASHLESS EXERCISE"
means the assignment in a form acceptable to the Company of the proceeds of a
sale or loan with respect to some or all of the shares of Stock acquired upon
the exercise of the Option pursuant to a program or procedure approved by the
Company (including, without limitation, through an exercise complying with the
provisions of Regulation T as promulgated from time to time by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System). The Company reserves, at any and all
times, the right, in the Company's sole and absolute discretion, to decline to
approve or terminate any such program or procedure.

                4.4 TAX WITHHOLDING. At the time the Option is exercised, in
whole or in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the
Optionee hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts
payable to the Optionee, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for
(including by means of a Cashless Exercise to the extent permitted by the
Company), any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax
withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group, if any, which arise
in connection with the Option, including, without limitation, obligations
arising upon (i) the exercise, in whole or in part, of the Option, (ii) the
transfer, in whole or in part, of any shares acquired upon exercise of the
Option, (iii) the operation of any law or regulation providing for the
imputation of interest, or (iv) the lapsing of any restriction with respect to
any shares acquired upon exercise of the Option. The Optionee is cautioned that
the Option is not exercisable unless the tax withholding obligations of the
Participating Company Group are satisfied. Accordingly, the Optionee may not be
able to exercise the Option when desired even though the Option is vested, and
the Company shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares.

                4.5 CERTIFICATE REGISTRATION. Except in the event the Exercise
Price is paid by means of a Cashless Exercise, the certificate for the shares as
to which the Option is exercised shall be registered in the name of the
Optionee, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Optionee.

                4.6 RESTRICTIONS ON GRANT OF THE OPTION AND ISSUANCE OF SHARES.
The grant of the Option and the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise of the
Option shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of
federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. The Option may
not be exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise would
constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities
laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or
market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, the Option
may not be exercised unless (i) a registration statement under the Securities
Act shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the
shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (ii) in the opinion of legal
counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be
issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. THE OPTIONEE IS CAUTIONED THAT
THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED.
ACCORDINGLY, THE OPTIONEE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED
EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS VESTED. The inability of the Company to obtain from
any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the
Company's legal counsel


                                       5
<PAGE>   6

to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares subject to the
Option shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to
issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have
been obtained. As a condition to the exercise of the Option, the Company may
require the Optionee to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or
appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to
make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by
the Company.

                4.7 FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to
issue fractional shares upon the exercise of the Option.

        5. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF THE OPTION.

                The Option may be exercised during the lifetime of the Optionee
only by the Optionee or the Optionee's guardian or legal representative and may
not be assigned or transferred in any manner except by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution. Following the death of the Optionee, the Option, to
the extent provided in Section 7, may be exercised by the Optionee's legal
representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Optionee's
will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution.

        6. TERMINATION OF THE OPTION.

                The Option shall terminate and may no longer be exercised on the
first to occur of (a) the Option Expiration Date, (b) the last date for
exercising the Option following termination of the Optionee's Service as
described in Section 7, or (c) a Change in Control to the extent provided in
Section 8.

        7. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE.

                7.1 OPTION EXERCISABILITY.

                        (a) DISABILITY. If the Optionee's Service with the
Participating Company Group is terminated because of the Disability of the
Optionee, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on
which the Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee (or
the Optionee's guardian or legal representative) at any time prior to the
expiration of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Optionee's Service
terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.

                        (b) DEATH. If the Optionee's Service with the
Participating Company Group is terminated because of the death of the Optionee,
the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the
Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee's legal
representative or other person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by
reason of the Optionee's death at any time prior to the expiration of twelve
(12) months after the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, but in
any event no later than the Option Expiration Date. The Optionee's Service shall
be deemed to have terminated on account of death if the Optionee dies within
three (3) months after the Optionee's termination of Service.


                                       6
<PAGE>   7

                        (c) OTHER TERMINATION OF SERVICE. If the Optionee's
Service with the Participating Company Group terminates for any reason, except
Disability or death, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable by
the Optionee on the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, may be
exercised by the Optionee within three (3) months (or such other longer period
of time as determined by the Board, in its discretion) after the date on which
the Optionee's Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option
Expiration Date.

                7.2 EXTENSION IF EXERCISE PREVENTED BY LAW. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the exercise of the Option within the applicable time periods set
forth in Section 7.1 is prevented by the provisions of Section 4.6, the Option
shall remain exercisable until three (3) months after the date the Optionee is
notified by the Company that the Option is exercisable, but in any event no
later than the Option Expiration Date.

                7.3 EXTENSION IF OPTIONEE SUBJECT TO SECTION 16(b).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a sale within the applicable time periods set
forth in Section 7.1 of shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option would
subject the Optionee to suit under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Option
shall remain exercisable until the earliest to occur of (i) the tenth (10th) day
following the date on which a sale of such shares by the Optionee would no
longer be subject to such suit, (ii) the one hundred and ninetieth (190th) day
after the Optionee's termination of Service, or (iii) the Option Expiration
Date.

        8. CHANGE IN CONTROL.

                8.1 DEFINITIONS.

                        (a) An "OWNERSHIP CHANGE EVENT" shall be deemed to have
occurred if any of the following occurs with respect to the Company: (i) the
direct or indirect sale or exchange in a single or series of related
transactions by the shareholders of the Company of more than fifty percent (50%)
of the voting stock of the Company; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which the
Company is a party; (iii) the sale, exchange, or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) a liquidation or
dissolution of the Company.

                        (b) A "CHANGE IN CONTROL" shall mean an Ownership Change
Event or a series of related Ownership Change Events (collectively, the
"TRANSACTION") wherein the shareholders of the Company immediately before the
Transaction do not retain immediately after the Transaction direct or indirect
beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined
voting power of the outstanding voting stock of the Company or the corporation
or corporations to which the assets of the Company were transferred (the
"TRANSFEREE CORPORATION(s)"), as the case may be. For purposes of the preceding
sentence, indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an
interest resulting from ownership of the voting stock of one or more
corporations which, as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the
Transferee Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or
more subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine
whether multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or
multiple Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be
final, binding and conclusive.


                                       7
<PAGE>   8

                8.2 EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL ON OPTION. In the event of a
Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing
corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the "ACQUIRING
CORPORATION"), may either assume the Company's rights and obligations under the
Option or substitute for the Option a substantially equivalent option for the
Acquiring Corporation's stock. The Option shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding effective as of the date of the Change in Control to the extent that
the Option is neither assumed or substituted for by the Acquiring Corporation in
connection with the Change in Control nor exercised as of the date of the Change
in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares acquired upon exercise of the
Option prior to the Change in Control and any consideration received pursuant to
the Change in Control with respect to such shares shall continue to be subject
to all applicable provisions of this Option Agreement except as otherwise
provided herein. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the corporation
the stock of which is subject to the Option immediately prior to an Ownership
Change Event described in Section 8.1(a)(i) constituting a Change in Control is
the surviving or continuing corporation and immediately after such Ownership
Change Event less than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of
its voting stock is held by another corporation or by other corporations that
are members of an affiliated group within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the
Code without regard to the provisions of Section 1504(b) of the Code, the Option
shall not terminate unless the Board otherwise provides in its discretion.

        9. ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.

                In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock
split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, or similar change in the
capital structure of the Company, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the
number, Exercise Price and class of shares of stock subject to the Option. If a
majority of the shares which are of the same class as the shares that are
subject to the Option are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become
(whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) shares of another
corporation (the "NEW SHARES"), the Board may unilaterally amend the Option to
provide that the Option is exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such
amendment, the Number of Option Shares and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted
in a fair and equitable manner, as determined by the Board, in its discretion.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any fractional share resulting from an adjustment
pursuant to this Section 9 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number,
and in no event may the Exercise Price be decreased to an amount less than the
par value, if any, of the stock subject to the Option. The adjustments
determined by the Board pursuant to this Section 9 shall be final, binding and
conclusive.

        10. RIGHTS AS A SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT.

                The Optionee shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect
to any shares covered by the Option until the date of the issuance of a
certificate for the shares for which the Option has been exercised (as evidenced
by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized
transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends,
distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date
such certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 9. If the Optionee is
an employee, the Optionee understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise
provided in a separate, written


                                       8
<PAGE>   9

employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Optionee, the
Optionee's employment is "at will" and is for no specified term. Nothing in this
Option Agreement shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in the
Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the
Participating Company Group to terminate the Optionee's Service as an employee
or consultant, as the case may be, at any time.

        11. LEGENDS.

                The Company may at any time place legends referencing any
applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions on all
certificates representing shares of stock subject to the provisions of this
Option Agreement. The Optionee shall, at the request of the Company, promptly
present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired
pursuant to the Option in the possession of the Optionee in order to carry out
the provisions of this Section.

        12. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

                12.1 BINDING EFFECT. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set
forth herein, this Option Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.

                12.2 TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT. The Board may terminate or amend
the Option at any time; provided, however, that except as provided in Section
8.2 in connection with a Change in Control, no such termination or amendment may
adversely affect the Option or any unexercised portion hereof without the
consent of the Optionee unless such termination or amendment is necessary to
comply with any applicable law or government regulation. No amendment or
addition to this Option Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.

                12.3 NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall
be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (except to the extent
that this Option Agreement provides for effectiveness only upon actual receipt
of such notice) upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the United States Post
Office, by registered or certified mail, with postage and fees prepaid,
addressed to the other party at the address shown below that party's signature
or at such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to
time to the other party.

                12.4 INTEGRATED AGREEMENT. This Option Agreement constitutes the
entire understanding and agreement of the Optionee and the Participating Company
Group with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes any
prior agreements, understandings, restrictions, representations, or warranties
among the Optionee and the Participating Company Group with respect to such
subject matter other than those as set forth or provided for herein. To the
extent contemplated herein, the provisions of this Option Agreement shall
survive any exercise of the Option and shall remain in full force and effect.

                12.5 APPLICABLE LAW. This Option Agreement shall be governed by
the laws of the State of California as such laws are applied to agreements
between California residents entered into and to be performed entirely within
the State of California.

               12.6 COUNTERPARTS. This Option Agreement may be executed
in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

As legal counsel for General Magic, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), we are rendering this opinion in connection with the registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of up to 525,000 shares of the
Common Stock, $0.001 par value, of the Company which may be issued pursuant to
the General Magic, Inc. Amended and Restated 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
(the "Plan") and an individual stock option agreement (the "Agreement").

We have examined all instruments, documents and records which we deemed relevant
and necessary for the basis of our opinion hereinafter expressed. In such
examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the
authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to
the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. We are admitted to
practice only in the State of California and we express no opinion concerning
any law other than the law of the State of California, the corporation laws of
the State of Delaware and the federal law of the United States. As to matters of
Delaware corporation law, we have based our opinion solely upon our examination
of such laws and the rules and regulations of the authorities administering such
laws, all as reported in standard, unofficial compilations. We have not obtained
opinions of counsel licensed to practice in jurisdictions other than the State
of California.

Based on such examination, we are of the opinion that the 525,000 shares of
Common Stock which may be issued under the Plan and the Agreement are duly
authorized shares of the Company's Common Stock, and, when issued against
receipt of the consideration therefor in accordance with the provisions of the
Plan and Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. We
hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement referred to above and the use of our name wherever it appears in said
Registration Statement.

Very truly yours,

GRAY CARY WARE & FREIDENRICH LLP
