2000 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
ARTICLE ONE
GENERAL PROVISIONS
I. PURPOSE OF THE PLAN
This 2000 Stock Incentive Plan is intended to promote the
interests of WebManage Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, by providing
eligible persons with the opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest, or
otherwise increase their proprietary interest, in the Corporation as an
incentive for them to remain in the service of the Corporation.
Capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms
in the attached Appendix.
II. STRUCTURE OF THE PLAN
A. The Plan shall consist of the Discretionary Option Grant
Program under which eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan
Administrator, be granted options to purchase shares of Common Stock.
B. The provisions of Articles One and Three shall apply to the
equity program under the Plan and shall accordingly govern the interests of all
persons under the Plan.
III. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
A. Administration of the Discretionary Option Grant with respect
to all persons eligible to participate in those programs may, at the Board's
discretion, be vested in the Primary Committee or a Secondary Committee, or the
Board may retain the power to administer those programs with respect to all such
persons.
B. Members of the Primary Committee or any Secondary Committee
shall serve for such period of time as the Board may determine and may be
removed by the Board at any time. The Board may also at any time terminate the
functions of any Secondary Committee and reassume all powers and authority
previously delegated to such committee.
C. Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its
administrative functions under the Plan, have full power and authority to
establish such rules and regulations as it may deem appropriate for proper
administration of the Discretionary Option Grant and to make such determinations
under, and issue such interpretations of, the provisions of such program and any
outstanding options or stock issuances thereunder as it may deem necessary or
advisable. Decisions of the Plan Administrator within the scope of its
administrative functions under the Plan shall be final and binding on all
parties who have an interest in the Discretionary Option Grant under its
jurisdiction or any stock option or stock issuance thereunder.
2
D. Service on the Primary Committee or the Secondary Committee
shall constitute service as a Board member, and members of each such committee
shall accordingly be entitled to full indemnification and reimbursement as Board
members for their service on such committee. No member of the Primary Committee
or the Secondary Committee shall be liable for any act or omission made in good
faith with respect to the Plan or any option grants or stock issuances under the
Plan.
IV. ELIGIBILITY
A. The persons eligible to participate in the Discretionary
Option Grant are as follows:
(i) Employees,
(ii) non-employee members of the Board or the board of
directors of any Parent or Subsidiary, and
(iii) consultants and other independent advisors who
provide services to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).
B. Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its
administrative jurisdiction under the Plan, have full authority (subject to the
provisions of the Plan) to determine, with respect to the option grants under
the Discretionary Option Grant Program, which eligible persons are to receive
option grants, the time or times when such option grants are to be made, the
number of shares to be covered by each such grant, the status of the granted
option as either an Incentive Option or a Non-Statutory Option, the time or
times when each option is to become exercisable, and the vesting schedule (if
any) applicable to the option shares and the maximum term for which the option
is to remain outstanding.
V. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
A. The stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of
authorized but unissued or reacquired Common Stock. The maximum number of shares
of Common Stock which may be issued over the term of the Plan shall not exceed
5,000,000 shares.
B. No one person participating in the Plan may receive options
and direct stock issuances for more than 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock in the
aggregate per calendar year, beginning with the 2000 calendar year.
C. Shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding options shall
be available for subsequent issuance under the Plan to the extent (i) the
options expire or terminate for any reason prior to exercise in full or (ii) the
options are cancelled in accordance with the cancellation-regrant provisions of
Article Two. In addition, any unvested shares issued under the Plan and
subsequently repurchased by the Corporation, at the option exercise or direct
issue price paid per share, pursuant to the Corporation's repurchase rights
under the Plan shall be added back to the number of shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance under the Plan and shall
2
3
accordingly be available for reissuance through one or more subsequent option
grants. Should the exercise price of an option under the Plan be paid with
shares of Common Stock or should shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under
the Plan be withheld by the Corporation in satisfaction of the withholding taxes
incurred in connection with the exercise of an option or the vesting of a stock
issuance under the Plan, then the number of shares of Common Stock available for
issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by the gross number of shares for which
the option is exercised or which vest under the stock issuance, and not by the
net number of shares of Common Stock issued to the holder of such option or
stock issuance.
D. Should any change be made to the Common Stock by reason of
any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares,
exchange of shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a
class without the Corporation's receipt of consideration, appropriate
adjustments shall be made to (i) the maximum number and/or class of securities
issuable under the Plan, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of securities for
which any one person may be granted options and direct stock issuances per
calendar year, and (iii) the number and/or class of securities and the exercise
price per share in effect under each outstanding option in order to prevent the
dilution or enlargement of benefits thereunder. The adjustments determined by
the Plan Administrator shall be final, binding and conclusive.

ARTICLE TWO
DISCRETIONARY OPTION GRANT PROGRAM
I. OPTION TERMS
Each option shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the
form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that each such
document shall comply with the terms specified below. Each document evidencing
an Incentive Option shall, in addition, be subject to the provisions of the Plan
applicable to such options.
A. Exercise Price.
1. The exercise price per share shall be fixed by the
Plan Administrator but shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the
Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date.
2. The exercise price shall become immediately due upon
exercise of the option and shall be payable in one or more of the forms
specified below:
(i) cash or check made payable to the
Corporation,
(ii) shares of Common Stock held for the
requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Corporation's
earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market
Value on the Exercise Date, or
(iii) to the extent the option is exercised for
vested shares, through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant
to which the Optionee shall concurrently provide irrevocable
instructions to (a) the Corporation to effect the immediate sale of the
purchased shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds
available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the
aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased shares plus all
applicable Federal, state and local income and employment taxes required
to be withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (b) the
Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares
directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale
transaction.
Except to the extent such sale and remittance procedure is
utilized, payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on
the Exercise Date.
B. Exercise and Term of Options. Each option shall be
exercisable at such time or times, during such period and for such number of
shares as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the
documents evidencing the option. However, no option shall have a term in excess
of ten (10) years measured from the option grant date.
4
5
C. Effect of Termination of Service.
1. The following provisions shall govern the
exercise of any options held by the Optionee at the time of cessation of
Service or death:
(i) Any option outstanding at the time of the
Optionee's cessation of Service for any reason shall remain exercisable
for such period of time thereafter as shall be determined by the Plan
Administrator and set forth in the documents evidencing the option, but
no such option shall be exercisable after the expiration of the option
term.
(ii) Any option exercisable in whole or in part
by the Optionee at the time of death may be exercised subsequently by
the personal representative of the Optionee's estate or by the person or
persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee's
will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution.
(iii) During the applicable post-Service
exercise period, the option may not be exercised in the aggregate for
more than the number of vested shares for which the option is
exercisable on the date of the Optionee's cessation of Service. Upon the
expiration of the applicable exercise period or (if earlier) upon the
expiration of the option term, the option shall terminate and cease to
be outstanding for any vested shares for which the option has not been
exercised. However, the option shall, immediately upon the Optionee's
cessation of Service, terminate and cease to be outstanding to the
extent the option is not otherwise at that time exercisable for vested
shares.
(iv) Should the Optionee's Service be terminated
for Misconduct, then all outstanding options held by the Optionee shall
terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding.
2. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretion,
exercisable either at the time an option is granted or at any time while the
option remains outstanding, to:
(i) extend the period of time for which the
option is to remain exercisable following the Optionee's cessation of
Service from the period otherwise in effect for that option to such
greater period of time as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate,
but in no event beyond the expiration of the option term, and/or
(ii) permit the option to be exercised, during
the applicable post-Service exercise period, not only with respect to
the number of vested shares of Common Stock for which such option is
exercisable at the time of the Optionee's cessation of Service but also
with respect to one or more additional installments in which the
Optionee would have vested under the option had the Optionee continued
in Service.
5
6
D. Stockholder Rights. The holder of an option shall have no
stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the option until such
person shall have exercised the option, paid the exercise price and become a
holder of record of the purchased shares.
E. Repurchase Rights. The Plan Administrator shall have the
discretion to grant options which are exercisable for unvested shares of Common
Stock. Should the Optionee cease Service while holding such unvested shares, the
Corporation shall have the right to repurchase, at the exercise price paid per
share, any or all of those unvested shares. The terms upon which such repurchase
right shall be exercisable (including the period and procedure for exercise and
the appropriate vesting schedule for the purchased shares) shall be established
by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the document evidencing such
repurchase right.
F. Limited Transferability of Options. During the lifetime of
the Optionee, Incentive Options shall be exercisable only by the Optionee and
shall not be assignable or transferable other than by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution following the Optionee's death. Non-Statutory Options
shall be subject to the same limitation, except that a Non-Statutory Option may,
in connection with the Optionee's estate plan, be assigned in whole or in part
during the Optionee's lifetime to one or more members of the Optionee's
immediate family or to a trust established exclusively for one or more such
family members. The assigned portion may only be exercised by the person or
persons who acquire a proprietary interest in the option pursuant to the
assignment. The terms applicable to the assigned portion shall be the same as
those in effect for the option immediately prior to such assignment and shall be
set forth in such documents issued to the assignee as the Plan Administrator may
deem appropriate.
II. INCENTIVE OPTIONS
The terms specified below shall be applicable to all Incentive
Options. Except as modified by the provisions of this Section II, all the
provisions of Articles One, Two and Three shall be applicable to Incentive
Options. Options which are specifically designated as Non-Statutory Options when
issued under the Plan shall not be subject to the terms of this Section II.
A. Eligibility. Incentive Options may only be granted to
Employees.
B. Exercise Price. The exercise price per share shall not be
less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock on the option grant date.
C. Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value of the
shares of Common Stock (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant)
for which one or more options granted to any Employee under the Plan (or any
other option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) may for the
first time become exercisable as Incentive Options during any one (1) calendar
year shall not exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). To the
extent the Employee holds two (2) or more such options which become exercisable
for the first time in the same calendar year, the foregoing limitation on the
exercisability of such options as Incentive Options shall be applied on the
basis of the order in which such options are granted.
6
7
D. 10% Stockholder. If any Employee to whom an Incentive Option
is granted is a 10% Stockholder, then the exercise price per share shall not be
less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock on the option grant date, and the option term shall not exceed five
(5) years measured from the option grant date.
III. CORPORATE TRANSACTION/CHANGE IN CONTROL
A. In the event of any Corporate Transaction, each outstanding
option shall automatically accelerate so that each such option shall,
immediately prior to the effective date of the Corporate Transaction, become
fully exercisable with respect to the total number of shares of Common Stock at
the time subject to such option and may be exercised for any or all of those
shares as fully-vested shares of Common Stock. However, an outstanding option
shall not so accelerate if and to the extent: (i) such option is, in connection
with the Corporate Transaction, either to be assumed by the successor
corporation (or parent thereof) or to be replaced with a comparable option to
purchase shares of the capital stock of the successor corporation (or parent
thereof), (ii) such option is to be replaced with a cash incentive program of
the successor corporation which preserves the spread existing on the unvested
option shares at the time of the Corporate Transaction and provides for
subsequent payout in accordance with the same vesting schedule applicable to
such option or (iii) the acceleration of such option is subject to other
limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator at the time of the option grant.
The determination of option comparability under clause (i) above shall be made
by the Plan Administrator, and its determination shall be final, binding and
conclusive.
B. All outstanding repurchase rights shall also terminate
automatically, and the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights
shall immediately vest in full, in the event of any Corporate Transaction,
except to the extent: (i) those repurchase rights are to be assigned to the
successor corporation (or parent thereof) in connection with such Corporate
Transaction or (ii) such accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations
imposed by the Plan Administrator at the time the repurchase right is issued.
C. Immediately following the consummation of the Corporate
Transaction, all outstanding options shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or
parent thereof).
D. Each option which is assumed in connection with a Corporate
Transaction shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Corporate
Transaction, to apply to the number and class of securities which would have
been issuable to the Optionee in consummation of such Corporate Transaction had
the option been exercised immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction.
Appropriate adjustments to reflect such Corporate Transaction shall also be made
to (i) the exercise price payable per share under each outstanding option,
provided the aggregate exercise price payable for such securities shall remain
the same, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of securities available for
issuance over the remaining term of the Plan and (iii) the maximum number and/or
class of securities for which any one person may be granted stock options and
direct stock issuances under the Plan per calendar year.
7
8
E. The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority to
grant options under the Discretionary Option Grant Program which will
automatically accelerate in whole or in part in the event the Optionee's Service
subsequently terminates by reason of an Involuntary Termination within a
designated period (not to exceed twelve (12) months) following the effective
date of any Corporate Transaction in which those options are assumed or replaced
and do not otherwise accelerate. Any options so accelerated shall remain
exercisable for fully-vested shares until the earlier of (i) the expiration of
the option term or (ii) the expiration of the one (1)-year period measured from
the effective date of the Involuntary Termination. In addition, the Plan
Administrator may provide that one or more of the Corporation's outstanding
repurchase rights with respect to shares held by the Optionee at the time of
such Involuntary Termination shall immediately terminate in whole or in part,
and the shares subject to those terminated rights shall accordingly vest.
F. The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority to
grant options under the Discretionary Option Grant Program which will
automatically accelerate in whole or in part in the event the Optionee's Service
subsequently terminates by reason of an Involuntary Termination within a
designated period (not to exceed twelve (12) months) following the effective
date of any Change in Control. Each option so accelerated shall remain
exercisable for fully-vested shares until the earlier of (i) the expiration of
the option term or (ii) the expiration of the one (1)-year period measured from
the effective date of the Involuntary Termination. In addition, the Plan
Administrator may provide that one or more of the Corporation's outstanding
repurchase rights with respect to shares held by the Optionee at the time of
such Involuntary Termination shall immediately terminate in whole or in part,
and the shares subject to those terminated rights shall accordingly vest.
G. The portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in connection
with a Corporate Transaction or Change in Control shall remain exercisable as an
Incentive Option only to the extent the applicable One Hundred Thousand Dollar
limitation is not exceeded. To the extent such dollar limitation is exceeded,
the accelerated portion of such option shall be exercisable as a Non-Qualified
Option under the Federal tax laws.
H. The outstanding options shall in no way affect the right of
the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its
capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or
sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
IV. CANCELLATION AND REGRANT OF OPTIONS
The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to effect, at
any time and from time to time, with the consent of the affected option holders,
the cancellation of any or all outstanding options under the Discretionary
Option Grant Program and to grant in substitution new options covering the same
or different number of shares of Common Stock but with an exercise price per
share based on the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the new grant
date.

MISCELLANEOUS
I. TAX WITHHOLDING
A. The Corporation's obligation to deliver shares of Common
Stock upon the exercise of stock options or the issuance or vesting of such
shares under the Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable
Federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding requirements.
B. The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, provide any or

connection with the exercise of their options or the vesting of their shares.
Such right may be provided to any such holder in either or both of the following

Corporation withhold, from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable
upon the exercise of such Non-Statutory Option or the vesting of such

equal to the percentage of the Withholding Taxes (not to exceed one
hundred percent (100%)) designated by the holder.
(ii) Stock Delivery: The election to deliver to
the Corporation, at the time the Non-Statutory Option is exercised or
the shares vest, one or more shares of Common Stock previously acquired

exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the holder.

III. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN
A. The Board shall have complete and exclusive power and
authority to amend or modify the Plan in any or all respects. However, no such
amendment or modification shall adversely affect any rights and obligations with
respect to options or unvested stock issuances at the time outstanding under the
Plan unless the Optionee or the Participant consents to such amendment or
modification. In addition, certain amendments may require stockholder approval
pursuant to applicable laws or regulations. Subject to the foregoing
limitations, the Plan Administrator may make option grants and direct stock
issuances under the Plan at any time before the date fixed herein for the
termination of the Plan.
B. Options to purchase shares of Common Stock may be granted
under the Discretionary Option Grant that are in each instance in excess of the
number of shares then available for issuance under the Plan, provided any excess
shares actually issued under those programs are held in escrow until there is
obtained stockholder approval of an amendment sufficiently increasing the number
of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan. If such
stockholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months after the date
the first such excess grants or issuances are made, then (i) any unexercised
options granted on the basis of such excess shares shall terminate and cease to
be outstanding and (ii) the Corporation shall promptly refund to the Optionees
and the Participants the exercise or purchase price paid for any excess shares
issued under the Plan and held in escrow, together with interest (at the
applicable Short Term Federal Rate) for the period the shares were held in
escrow, and such shares shall thereupon be automatically cancelled and cease to
be outstanding.

shares of Common Stock under the Plan shall be used for general corporate
purposes.

Participant any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration
or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation
(or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining such
10
11
person) or of the Optionee or the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly
