                    AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and
entered into by and between FTP Software, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the
"Company"), and Dennis Leibl ("Employee"), as of June 13th, 1998.

WHEREAS, NetManage, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("NetManage"), Amanda
Acquisition Corp., a Massachusetts corporation ("Merger Sub"), and the Company
intend to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the
"Reorganization Agreement") pursuant to which Merger Sub will be merged with and
into the Company, with the Company surviving such merger as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of NetManage (the "Merger"); and

WHEREAS, the Company and Employee are parties to an Employment Agreement dated
as of December 12, 1997 (the "Existing Employment Agreement"); and

WHEREAS, the Reorganization Agreement provides that it is a condition to the
Merger that Employee have entered into this Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises, terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and as an inducement to NetManage to
enter into the Reorganization Agreement, the parties hereto hereby agree that
the Existing Employment Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety,
effective as of the Effective Time (as defined in the Reorganization Agreement)
of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), as follows:

1.   EMPLOYMENT. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, the Company hereby offers and Employee hereby accepts employment.

2.   TERM. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 5, the term of
Employee's employment hereunder shall be one year ending on December 12, 1998;
PROVIDED, that unless written notice pursuant to Sections 5.c, d, e, f or g to
the contrary is given by either party hereto to the other at least thirty (30)
days prior to the expiration of the original or any renewal term (in which case
this Agreement shall terminate as of the last day of such term or, if earlier,
the date such notice becomes effective in accordance with such Section, in each
case with the effect provided in such Section), the term of Employee's
employment hereunder shall automatically renew for successive terms of one year
each; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that if a Change of Control (as defined in Section 5)
occurs, the then-current term shall be automatically extended so that the
remainder of the term is not less than twelve (12) full calendar months from the
date of the Change of Control. The term of this Agreement, as from time to time
renewed or extended, is referred to herein as the "Term."

3.   DUTIES; CONFLICTING INTERESTS. During the Term, Employee agrees to serve
the Company as its Senior Vice President/General Manager, VIP Network
Applications Business Unit, or in such other executive position as the Board of
Directors of the Company (the "Board") or the President of the Company (the
"President") may designate from time to time with Employee's consent. In
addition, and without further compensation, Employee shall serve as a director
and/or officer of one or more of the Company's Affiliates (as hereafter defined)
if so elected or appointed from time to time. Employee shall, on a full-time
basis, perform such duties and responsibilities for the Company and its
Affiliates as are intrinsic to Employee's position and status with the Company
or as may otherwise reasonably be designated from time to time by the Board or
by the President or any designees of the President. Employee shall devote his
best efforts, business judgment, skill and knowledge exclusively to the
advancement of the business and interests of the Company and its Affiliates.
Employee shall not engage in any other business activity (whether or not such
business activity is pursued for gain, profit or other pecuniary advantage) or
serve on any other board of directors or in any industry, trade, professional,
governmental or academic position during the term of this Agreement, except as
may be expressly approved in advance in writing by the Board or the President,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.


   2

     For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "Affiliates" shall mean all
persons and entities directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under
common control with the Company, where control may be by either management
authority or equity interest.

4.   COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS.

     a.   BASE SALARY. During the Term, the Company shall pay Employee a base
salary at the rate of Two Hundred and Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($225,000)
per annum, payable in accordance with the payroll practices of the Company and
subject to adjustment from time to time by the Board in its sole discretion.
Such base salary, as adjusted from time to time, is referred to as the "Base
Salary."

     b.   CASH INCENTIVE AND BONUS COMPENSATION. If a cash incentive or bonus
compensation plan is made available to executives of the Company generally and
Employee is not then covered by any other cash incentive or bonus compensation
plan, Employee shall be entitled during the Term to participate in such plan (if
any) in accordance with the plan's then current terms. Any compensation paid to
Employee under any incentive or bonus compensation plan (hereafter, "Bonus")
shall be in addition to the Base Salary. Except as otherwise provided under the
terms of such incentive or bonus compensation plan or this Agreement, any Bonus
payable to Employee shall be pro-rated during Employee's first and last year of
service as an executive officer of the Company, provided, in each case, that
Employee has been employed for at least three (3) months of the twelve (12)
month period on which the cash incentive or bonus compensation plan is based.

     c.   STOCK OPTIONS. Upon a "Change of Control," as hereafter defined, any
and all stock options granted to Employee by the Company and not yet exercised,
expired, surrendered or canceled shall automatically vest and become exercisable
in full, but shall remain exercisable only in accordance with the terms of any
applicable stock option plan, certificate or agreement.

     d.   OTHER BENEFITS. During the Term, Employee shall be entitled to
participate in any and all employee benefit plans from time to time in effect
for employees of the Company generally, except to the extent such plans are in a
category of benefit otherwise provided to Employee. Such participation shall be
subject to the terms of the applicable plan documents and generally applicable
Company policies.

5.   TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND SEVERANCE BENEFITS. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 2, Employee's employment hereunder shall terminate under
the following circumstances.

     a.   DEATH. In the event of Employee's death, Employee's employment
hereunder shall immediately and automatically terminate and the Company shall
pay to Employee's designated beneficiary or, if none, to Employee's estate, a
sum equal to three (3) months' Base Salary plus any Bonus due Employee,
pro-rated through the date of Employee's death.

     b.   DISABILITY.

          i.   The Company may terminate Employee's employment hereunder, upon
written notice to Employee, if Employee becomes disabled (whether physically or
mentally) and, as a result, is unable to perform substantially all of his duties
and responsibilities hereunder for any 180 (whether or not consecutive) days
during any period of 365 consecutive calendar days.

          ii.  Notwithstanding that someone else may be performing Employee's
tasks while Employee is disabled, Employee shall continue to receive the Base
Salary in accordance with Section 4.a and benefits in accordance with Section
4.d to the extent permitted by the then-current terms of the applicable benefit
plans, until Employee becomes eligible for disability income benefits under the
Company's disability income plan or until the termination of Employee's
employment, whichever occurs first. While receiving disability income payments
under the Company's disability income plan, Employee shall not be entitled to
receive any Base Salary under Section 4.a, but shall continue to participate in
Company benefit plans in accordance with Section 4.d (to the extent permitted by
the then-current terms of such plans) until the termination of Employee's
employment.


                                       2



   3

          iii. If any question arises as to whether during any period Employee
is disabled so as to be unable to perform substantially all of his duties and
responsibilities hereunder, Employee, at the request of the Company, shall
submit to a medical examination by a physician reasonably selected by the
Company to determine whether Employee is so disabled and such determination
shall for the purposes of this Agreement be conclusive of the issue. If such
question arises and Employee fails to submit to such medical examination, the
Company's determination of the issue shall be binding on Employee.

     c.   BY THE COMPANY FOR CAUSE. The Company may terminate Employee's
employment hereunder for Cause at any time upon written notice to Employee
setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of such Cause. The following, as
determined by the Board, shall constitute Cause for termination by the Company:

          i.   Employee's willful failure to perform (other than by reason of
disability), or gross negligence in the performance of, Employee's duties and
responsibilities to the Company or any of its Affiliates; or

          ii.  Material breach by Employee of any provision of this Agreement or
the Employee Confidentiality and Inventions Agreement dated as of June 17, 1997
between the Company and Employee (the "Confidentiality and Inventions
Agreement"); or

          iii. Fraud, embezzlement or other material dishonesty on the part of
Employee with respect to the Company or any of its Affiliates or conviction of
or plea of nolo contendere by Employee to a felony or any crime involving moral
turpitude.

Upon the giving of notice of termination of Employee's employment hereunder for
Cause, the Company shall have no further obligation or liability to Employee,
other than for Base Salary earned and unpaid at the date of termination.

     For purposes of this Agreement, no act, or failure to act, on Employee's
part shall be considered "willful" unless such act, or failure to act, was not
in good faith and was without reasonable belief that Employee's action or
omission was in the best interest of the Company.

     d.   BY THE COMPANY OTHER THAN FOR CAUSE. The Company may terminate
Employee's employment hereunder other than for Cause at any time upon written
notice to Employee. If such termination occurs either before or after a Change
of Control Period (as defined in Section 5.g) and provided that Employee
executes a release of claims in the form attached hereto and marked "A" (the
"Employee Release") and does not revoke the same within the period stated in
Employee Release, then the Company shall (i) pay Employee, within ten (10)
business days after such termination, a lump sum payment equal to twelve (12)
months' Base Salary at the rate in effect on the date of termination and (ii)
shall pay the full cost of Employee's continued participation in the Company's
group health and dental insurance plans for so long as Employee remains entitled
to continue such participation under the federal law known as "COBRA" or any
successor law and the applicable plan terms.

     e.   BY EMPLOYEE FOR GOOD REASON. Employee may terminate employment
hereunder for Good Reason at any time upon written notice to the Company setting
forth in reasonable detail the nature of such Good Reason. The following shall
constitute Good Reason for termination by Employee:

          i.   Failure of the Company to continue Employee in the position of
Senior Vice President/General Manager, VIP Network Applications Business Unit,
of the Company or in such other position to which Employee may subsequently be
assigned with Employee's consent; or

          ii.  Material diminution in the nature or scope of Employee's
responsibilities, duties or authority; provided, however, that the Company's
failure to continue Employee in the position of director or officer of any of
its Affiliates and any diminution of the business of the Company or any of its
Affiliates, 



                                       3


   4

including without limitation the sale or transfer of any or all of the assets of
the Company or any of its Affiliates, shall not constitute "Good Reason"; or

          iii. Permanent transfer of Employee, without Employee's consent, to a
work site located such that Employee's commute to and from work is more than
fifty (50) miles each way; or

          iv.  A decrease in the Base Salary of more than fifteen percent (15%)
or the material failure of the Company to provide Employee benefits in
accordance with the terms of Section 4.b or 4.d hereof.

In the event of termination in accordance with this Section 5.e, the Company
shall provide Employee pay and benefits in accordance with Section 5.d, provided
that Employee executes the Employee Release and does not revoke the same within
the period stated in the Employee Release.

     f.   BY EMPLOYEE OTHER THAN FOR GOOD REASON. Employee may terminate
employment hereunder at any time upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to
the Company.

     g.   UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL.

          i.   If a Change of Control (as defined below and including, without
limitation, the Merger) occurs and if on the date of, or within one year
following, such Change of Control (a "Change of Control Period"), the Company
terminates Employee's employment with the Company other than for Cause or
Employee terminates his employment with the Company for any reason and, in
either event, Employee executes the Employee Release and does not revoke the
same within the period stated in the Employee Release, then the Company: (A)
shall pay Employee, within ten (10) business days after such termination, in
cash and one lump sum, an amount (the "Change of Control Payment") equal to 1.5
times the greater of (1) the sum of the Base Salary and the amount of any Bonus
paid or payable during the twelve (12) months following the date on which such
termination occurs or (2) the sum of the Base Salary and the amount of any Bonus
paid or payable to Employee during the twelve (12) months preceding the date on
which such termination occurs, payable as provided below; and (B) shall pay the
full cost of Employee's continued participation in the Company's group health
and dental insurance plans for so long as Employee remains entitled to continue
such participation under COBRA or any successor law and the applicable plan
terms. Any decrease in Employee's Bonus and any decrease in Employee's Base
Salary that occurs after the date a Change of Control occurs shall be
disregarded for purposes of the calculation set forth in the preceding clause
(A). The Change of Control Payment shall be in lieu of any payments to or on
behalf of Employee that may otherwise be required pursuant to Sections 5.d or
5.e.

          ii.  A Change of Control shall be deemed to take place if after the
Effective Time: (A) within twenty-four (24) months after the commencement of a
tender offer or exchange offer for voting securities of the Company (other than
by the Company or any of its Affiliates), the individuals who were directors of
the Company immediately prior to the commencement of such offer shall cease to
constitute a majority of the Board; or (B) the stockholders of the Company
approve a merger or consolidation of the Company with any Person, other than a
merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the
Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by
remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the
surviving entity) more than seventy-five percent (75%) of the combined voting
power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity
outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or (C) there occurs
a closing of a sale or other disposition by the Company of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company other than to any of its Affiliates or any
trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of
the Company or any of its Affiliates.

          iii. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payments and benefits to which
Employee would be entitled pursuant to Section 5.g.i as a result of a Change of
Control shall be reduced to the maximum amount for which the Company will not be
limited in its deduction pursuant to Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code
or any successor provision.




                                       4


   5

          iv.  The Company shall promptly reimburse Employee for the amount of
all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by Employee in seeking to
obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided Employee under this Section 5.g.

6.   EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. The provisions of this Section 6 shall
apply to any termination of employment hereunder:

     a.   Payment by the Company of any Base Salary, pro-rated Bonus or
contributions to the cost of Employee's continued participation in the Company's
group health and dental plans or other amounts that may be due Employee in each
case as expressly provided for under the applicable termination provision of
Section 5 hereof shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company to
Employee. Employee shall promptly give the Company notice of all facts necessary
for the Company to determine the amount and duration of its obligations in
connection with any termination pursuant to Section 5.d, 5.e or 5.g.

     b.   Except for medical and dental plan coverage continued pursuant to
Section 5.d, 5.e or 5.g, benefits shall terminate pursuant to the term of the
applicable benefit plans based on the date of termination of Employee's
employment without regard to any continuation of Base Salary or other payment to
Employee following such date of termination, except as otherwise provided in
Section 5.g.

     c.   The obligations of Employee set forth in Sections 7 and 10 and in the
Confidentiality and Inventions Agreement shall survive the termination of
Employee's employment hereunder. Employee recognizes that, except as expressly
provided in Section 5.d, 5.e or 5.g, as applicable, no compensation is earned
after termination of employment.

7.   RESTRICTED ACTIVITIES. In consideration of the terms of this Agreement,
Employee agrees that some restrictions on Employee's activities during and after
employment are necessary to protect the goodwill, confidential information and
other legitimate interests of the Company, NetManage and their respective
Affiliates:

     a.   Employee hereby acknowledges that the activities carried on by the
Company, NetManage and their respective Affiliates have worldwide business and
commercial implications for the Company, NetManage and their respective
Affiliates, without geographic limit. In consideration of the payments set forth
herein, Employee agrees that during the Non-Compete Period (as defined below) he
shall not, other than on behalf of NetManage or the Company, directly or
indirectly, without the prior written consent of NetManage: (i) engage in,
anywhere in the jurisdictions in which the Company, NetManage and their
respective Affiliates and resellers conduct business (the "Restricted Area"),
whether as an employee, agent, consultant, advisor, independent contractor,
proprietor, partner, officer, director or otherwise, or have any ownership
interest in (except for ownership of one percent (1%) or less of any
publicly-held entity), or participate in or facilitate the financing, operation,
management or control of, any firm, partnership, corporation, entity or business
that engages or participates in a Competing Business Purpose (as defined below);
or (ii) interfere with the business of the Company or NetManage or approach,
contact or solicit the Company's or NetManage's customers in connection with a
Competing Business Purpose. "Competing Business Purpose" means the design,
development, marketing, sale or support of software products for connecting
personal computers to corporate mainframe, midrange and UNIX computers.
"Noncompete Period" means the period of employment of Employee by the Company or
NetManage and continuing for a period of 18 months thereafter.

     b.   Employee agrees that during the Non-Compete Period he shall not,
directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of NetManage, solicit,
encourage or take any other action which is intended to induce any employee of
NetManage or the Company to terminate his or her employment with NetManage or
the Company.

8.   ENFORCEMENT OF COVENANTS. Employee acknowledges and agrees that, were
Employee to breach any of the covenants contained in Section 7 or in the
Confidentiality and Inventions Agreement, the damage to the Company and its
Affiliates would be irreparable, that the damage would be extremely difficult to
ascertain, and that money damages alone would not be an adequate remedy.
Accordingly, Employee agrees that the Company and its Affiliates and their
successors and assigns, in addition to any other remedies available to them,
shall be entitled to 



                                       5


   6

preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against any breach or threatened
breach by Employee of any of said covenants, without having to post bond. The
parties further agree that, if any provision of Section 7 or of the
Confidentiality and Inventions Agreement shall be determined by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended over
too great a time, too large a geographic area or too great a range of
activities, such provision shall be deemed to be modified to permit its
enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

9.   CONFLICTING AGREEMENTS. Employee hereby represents and warrants that the
execution of this Agreement and the performance of Employee's obligations
hereunder will not breach or be in conflict with any other agreement to which
Employee is a party or is bound and that Employee is not now subject to any
covenants against competition, covenants of confidentiality or similar covenants
with any person or entity other than the Company that would affect the
performance of Employee's obligations hereunder. Employee shall not disclose to
or use on behalf of the Company any proprietary information of any third party
without such party's consent.

10.  LITIGATION ASSISTANCE. Employee covenants and agrees that he shall, upon
reasonable notice, during the Term and for three (3) full years after the
termination of this Agreement, furnish such information and assistance to the
Company as may be reasonably required by the Company in connection with any
litigation in which it or any of its Affiliates is, or may become, a party. The
Company shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by Employee in furnishing such information and assistance.

11.  INDEMNIFICATION. The Company shall indemnify and hold Employee harmless to
the extent provided in its then-current Articles of Organization or By Laws.
Employee agrees to promptly notify the Company of any actual or threatened claim
arising out of or as a result of Employee's employment with the Company.

12.  WITHHOLDING. All payments made by the Company under this Agreement shall be
reduced by any tax or other amounts required to be withheld by the Company under
applicable law.

13.  ASSIGNMENT. Neither the Company nor Employee may make any assignment of
this Agreement or any interest herein, by operation of law or otherwise, without
the prior written consent of the other; provided, however, that the Company may
assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the consent of
Employee if the Company shall hereafter effect a reorganization, consolidate
with or merge into any entity or transfer all or substantially all of its
properties or assets to any entity. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of
and be binding upon the Company and Employee, their respective successors,
executors, administrators, heirs and permitted assigns.

14.  SEVERABILITY. The terms of this Agreement are severable. If any portion or
provision of this Agreement shall to any extent be declared illegal or
unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this
Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances
other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall
not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall
be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

15.  NOTICES. Any and all notices, requests, demands and other communications
provided for by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be effective when
delivered in person or deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid,
registered or certified, or by recognized overnight courier and addressed to
Employee at Employee's last known address on the books of the Company or, in the
case of the Company, at its principal place of business, attention of the
Chairman, or to such other address as either party may specify by written notice
to the other actually received.

16.  ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. This Agreement and the
Confidentiality and Inventions Agreement, which is incorporated herein by
reference, constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all
prior communications, agreements and understandings, written or oral, with
respect to the terms and conditions of Employee's employment, including the
Existing Employment Agreement. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by
a written instrument signed by Employee and by an expressly authorized
representative of the Company. Employee and the Company agree that their
respective rights and remedies against 


                                       6


   7

the other are cumulative and that they may be exercised singularly or
collectively, successively or concurrently. A waiver of any violation or failure
to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any
rights under this Agreement with respect to any other or continued violation of
any provision of this Agreement. Any waiver shall be enforceable only if in
writing and signed by an expressly authorized representative of the Company and
by Employee.

17.  HEADINGS, REFERENCES AND COUNTERPARTS. The headings and captions in this
Agreement are for convenience only and in no way define or describe the scope or
content of any provision of this Agreement. References in this Agreement to
Sections are references to the specified Sections of this Agreement. This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an
original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

18.  GOVERNING LAW. This is a Massachusetts contract and shall be construed and
enforced under and be governed in all respects by the laws of the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts, USA, without regard to the conflict of laws principles
thereof. Employee and the Company consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, USA.

19.  TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall automatically terminate
and shall be void and of no further force or effect if the Reorganization
Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, effective as of such
termination. If this Agreement terminates as provided in the preceding sentence,
the Existing Employment Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE HAS CAREFULLY READ AND CONSIDERED ALL THE TERMS
AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE RESTRAINTS IMPOSED UPON EMPLOYEE
PURSUANT TO SECTION 7 AND PURSUANT TO THE CONFIDENTIALITY AND INVENTIONS
AGREEMENT. EMPLOYEE AGREES THAT SAID RESTRAINTS ARE NECESSARY FOR THE REASONABLE
AND PROPER PROTECTION OF THE COMPANY, NETMANAGE AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES
AND THAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THE RESTRAINTS IS REASONABLE IN RESPECT TO
SUBJECT MATTER, LENGTH OF TIME AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been executed as a sealed instrument by
the Company, by its duly authorized representative, and by Employee, as of the
date first above written.
