Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Pursuant to his agreement, Mr. Anderson is entitled to an annual base salary of no
less than $500,000. If Mr. Anderson's employment is terminated by the Company without "Cause" at any time during the five-year period
following April 1, 1996, he will be entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to the sum of his annual base salary and target

difference between the applicable "change in control price" and the exercise price. The Director Plan provides that upon a "change in control"
of the Company, all unvested options held by non-employee directors will automatically become fully vested and exercisable and will be
cashed out at an amount equal to the difference between the applicable "change in control price" and the exercise price of the options. A
"change in control" under these plans is generally defined as (i) the acquisition by any person of 50% or more of the combined voting power of
the Company's outstanding securities or (ii) the occurrence of a transaction requiring shareholder approval and involving the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company or the merger of the Company with or into another corporation.
In addition, options granted to Fred D. Anderson, Timothy D. Cook, Nancy R. Heinen, Mitchell Mandich, Sina Tamaddon, Jonathan
Rubinstein and Avadis Tevanian provide that in the event there is a "change in control", as defined in the Company's stock option plans, and if
in connection with or following such "change in control", their employment is terminated without "Cause" or if they should resign for "Good
Reason", those options outstanding that are not yet vested and exercisable as of the date of such "change in control" shall become fully vested
and exercisable. Generally, "Cause" is defined to include a felony conviction, willful disclosure of confidential information or willful and
continued failure to perform his or her employment duties. "Good Reason" includes resignation of employment as a result of a substantial
diminution in position or duties, or an adverse change in title or reduction in annual base salary.
