                         SANTA CLARA, CALIFORNIA 95054

This agreement dated August 4, 1998 is entered into by and among Ramp Networks,

Master Lease dated February 24, 1998, entered into by Ramp Networks, Inc. and
Oxford Park Associates.  A copy of said Master Lease is attached hereto,
designated Exhibit A, and incorporated herein by this reference.

1.   Premises

1.1  Sublessor hereby leases to Sublessee and Sublessee hereby hires from
     Sublessor, on and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set
     forth, the following described premises (hereinafter referred to as
     "Subleased Premises"), the entire rentable space on the first floor of 3100
     De La Cruz Boulevard, situated in the City of Santa Clara, County of Santa
     Clara, State of California (hereinafter the "Building") comprising
     approximately 13,500 rentable square feet of space.

1.2  In addition Sublessee shall have non-exclusive access to the public areas
     of the building and surrounding area including, but not limited to, the
     showers on the second floor and parking spaces in the parking lot.
     Sublessee's access to the parking spaces shall not be less than that of
     sublessor or any other tenant of the facility at 3100 De La Cruz Blvd.

2.   Term

2.1  The term of this Sublease (hereinafter "Term") shall be for a period of 18
     months from the date of general occupancy unless sooner terminated pursuant
     to any provision hereof, or of the Master Lease. Occupancy shall commence
     on October 15, 1998 or such other date as mutually agreed by Sublessor and
     Sublessee.

2.2  In the event occupancy is delayed due to the construction schedule for the
     Subleased Premises, the Sublessor shall bear no liability for any expenses,
     costs or penalties of the Sublessee. In the event of such a delay,
     occupancy shall commence on the earliest date, agreed by the Sublessor and
     Sublessee, when the Subleased Premises are suitable for general occupancy.
     In the event that the construction work is completed and the premises are
     suitable for general occupancy, but the Sublessee not prepared to take
     occupancy, then the occupancy date will be deemed to commence on such date
     as the premises first were available for Sublessee's occupancy and the
     related rent shall commence. The Sublessee may terminate this Sublease if
     the Subleased Premises are not ready for occupancy by November 15, 1998.

2.3  Notwithstanding the above, Sublessor and Master Lessor will allow Sublessee
     to have access to the building as soon as is reasonably practical, but not
     later than October 1, 1998, to install telephone lines, network wiring and
     other Sublessee provided infrastructure as agreed by the parties.  Any
     Sublessee contractors will coordinate with Sublessor's contractors and
     Master Lessor's General Contractor for any and all Sublessee work prior to
     occupancy.

2.4  Upon expiration of the Term or upon early termination of the Sublease,
     Sublessee shall immediately surrender the Subleased Premises in good
     condition to the Sublessor, normal wear and tear excepted. In addition,
     upon surrender of the Subleased Premises, Sublessee shall remove any of its
     trade fixtures and all its personal property from the Subleased Premises.

2.5  If the Subleased Premises remain in the possession of the Sublessee with
     the consent of the Sublessor after the Term has expired, the Sublessee
     shall be deemed to be occupying the Subleased Premises on a month to month
     basis with a monthly rent equal to the last Rent amount in effect. Such
     month to month occupancy 

 
     shall be subject to the terms of this Sublease, and be subject to
     termination upon 30 days' written notice by either party.

2.6  If the Subleased Premises remain in the Sublessee's possession after the
     expiration of the Term without the consent of the Sublessor, or after early
     termination of the Sublease, the Sublessee's occupancy shall be deemed
     tenancy at sufferance and Sublessee shall be liable for monthly rent in the
     amount of two times the last Rent in effect.

2.7  At the end of the Sublease Term, Sublessor shall determine whether
     Sublessor requires the Subleased Premises for its own use. If the Sublessor
     decides to sublease the Subleased Premises, the Sublessor shall negotiate
     in good faith with the Sublessee to extend the sublease term, provided the
     Sublessee has not defaulted under the Sublease and such default remains
     uncured.

3.   Base Rent

3.1  Payment of rent shall be due and payable on the date of general occupancy.
     Rent shall be at the rate of $2.60 per rentable square foot. Sublessee
     shall pay to Sublessor without deduction, setoff, prior notice or demand,
     as rent for the Subleased Premises, equal monthly payments as shown below
     (hereinafter "Rent"):

     10/15/98 to 10/14/99     $35,100 per month

     10/15/99 to 4/14/2000    $37,908 per month

     in advance on the first day of each month of the Term hereof. In the event
     the payment of Rent is not received by the Sublessor by the first day of
     each month, the Sublessor shall send written notice of non-receipt of the
     payment. Sublessee shall have a grace period of five (5) days after receipt
     of the written notice to pay the Rent. If Sublessee does not pay the Rent
     within five days after receipt of the written notice, Sublessee shall have
     defaulted under this Sublease and be subject to the provisions of section 7
     of this Sublease.

     The above rent is based on an estimated rentable space of 13,500 square
     feet. Upon completion of the construction, the rentable square feet shall
     be measured and adjusted. Such measurement shall be agreed by the parties
     and the rent adjusted accordingly, based on the revised rentable space, and
     an amendment shall signed by the parties and incorporated into this
     agreement. Notwithstanding the above, the rentable square sheet shall not
     exceed 13,500 square feet.

     If the date of general occupancy is not the first day of the month, or if
     the termination date is not the last day of the month, a pro rata portion
     of the monthly Rent shall be paid to the Sublessor at the then current rate
     for the fractional month during which the Sublease commences and/or
     terminates based on a 30-day month. Sublessee shall pay Sublessor on or
     before the occupancy date hereof the prorated sum due for the initial
     fractional month plus the sum due for the first full month of rent.

3.2  Services to the Subleased Premises shall be provided by the Master Lessor
     as per Article 6.00 of the Master Lease Agreement.  Such services shall
     include heat, ventilation, cooling, janitorial services, electric power for
     normal lighting and small business office equipment, running water, and
     maintenance, repair and replacement as defined in the referenced Article of
     the Master Lease.  Master Lessor covenants to furnish all those services to
     the Subleased Premises and to the Building agreed by Master Lessor to be
     provided pursuant to Article 6.0 of the Master Lease.

4.   Security Deposit

     Sublessee shall deposit with Sublessor upon execution of this Sublease
     hereof the sum of $70,200 as security for Sublessee's faithful performance
     of Sublessee's obligations hereunder. If Sublessee fails to pay Rent or
     other charges due hereunder, or otherwise defaults with respect to any
     provision of this Sublease, and fails to commence a cure of such default
     within the time provided therefor in this Sublease, Sublessor may use,
     apply

                                      -2-

 
     or retain all or any portion of said deposit for the payment of any Rent or
     other charge in default or for the payment of any other sum which Sublessor
     may become obligated by reason of Sublessee's default, or to compensate
     Sublessor for any loss or damage which Sublessor may suffer thereby. If
     Sublessor so uses or applies all or any portion of said deposit, Sublessee
     shall within ten (10) days after written demand therefore, deposit cash
     with Sublessor in an amount sufficient to restore said deposit to the full
     amount herein above stated, and Sublessee's failure to do so shall be a
     default under this Sublease, and Sublessor may at its option terminate this
     Sublease. Sublessor shall not be required to keep said deposit separate
     from its general accounts. If Sublessee performs all of Sublessee's
     obligations hereunder, said deposit, or so much thereof as has not
     theretofore been applied by Sublessor, shall be returned without payment of
     interest for its use to Sublessee within ten (10) days after the expiration
     of the Term hereof, or after Sublessee has vacated the Subleased Premises,
     whichever is later.

     Sublessee's Security deposit shall not bear interest unless the Master
     Lessor pays interest under the Master Lease to the Sublessor for
     Sublessor's security deposit, in which case Sublessee's security deposit
     with the Sublessor shall bear interest at the same rate under this Sublease
     as Sublessor's Security Deposit bears interest under the Master Lease.

5.   Use

5.1  The Subleased Premises shall be used and occupied for general office and
     R&D purposes, including light assembly and prototyping, and for no other
     purpose without prior written consent of Sublessor.

5.2  Master Lessor warrants to Sublessee that the Subleased Premises, in its
     intended state, but without regard for Sublessee's stated use, does not
     violate any applicable statute, law, deed restrictions, building code,
     regulation or ordinance, including the Americans With Disabilities Act (42
     USC Sec. 12111 et. Seq.), at the time that this Sublease is executed.  If
     this warranty hereafter is found not to be true, Sublessor shall work with
     the Master Lessor to bring the Subleased Premises into compliance.

     Sublessee shall, at Sublessee's expense, comply promptly with all
     applicable statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, restrictions
     of record, and requirements in effect during the Term hereof regulating the
     use of the Subleased Premises, provided, however, that Sublessee shall not
     be required to expend any of its funds for capital improvements or changes
     related to the Americans with Disabilities Act.

5.3  Except for latent and undisclosed defects, Sublessee hereby accepts the
     Subleased Premises in their condition existing as of the commencement date
     of the Term hereof, subject to all applicable zoning, municipal, county and
     state laws, ordinances and regulations governing and regulating the use of
     the Subleased Premises, and accepts this Sublease subject thereto.

     made any representation or warranty as to the suitability of the Subleased
     Premises for the conduct of the Sublessee's business.

     not be unreasonably withheld; and (e) Sublessee shall be responsible for
     obtaining any required approvals from the City of Santa Clara.

5.7  Sublessee shall keep the Subleased Premises in good condition.  In the
     event the Sublessee fails to maintain the Subleased Premises, the Sublessor
     may, following no less than 48 hours' prior notice, enter the Subleased
     Premises, perform any needed repairs or maintenance, and charge the
     Sublessee for the cost incurred plus a

                                      -3-

 
     20% administrative fee. Any such entry into the Subleased Premises by the
     Sublessor, except in case of emergency, shall be as accompanied by an
     employee or designated representative of the Sublessee.
     
5.8  Sublessee shall obtain prior approval from the Sublessor for any

     condition of the Master Lease.

6.2  Sublessee shall hold Sublessor harmless of and from all liability,
     judgements, costs, damages, claims or demands, including reasonable
     attorney's fees, arising out of Sublessee's failure to comply with or

     payment within 15 days after its due date, then the Sublessee shall owe
     interest on the amount due at an interest rate that is the lesser of one
     and one-half percent (1.5%) per month, or the maximum rate allowed by law,

     Sublessee fails to perform any act on its part to be performed hereunder,
     and such failure shall continue for 10 days after notice thereof from
     Sublessor, Sublessor may perform such act (but shall not be obligated to do
     so) without waiving or releasing Sublessee from any of its obligations
     relative thereto. All reasonable sums paid or costs incurred by Sublessor
     in so performing such acts together with interest thereon at the rate set
     in paragraph 7.1 herein from the date payment was made or each cost
     incurred by the Sublessor shall be payable by Sublessee to Sublessor on

     (b) Sublessee becomes insolvent or commits an act of bankruptcy or becomes
         bankrupt or takes benefit of any statute that may be in force for
         bankrupt or insolvent debtors or becomes involved in involuntary or
         involuntary winding-up proceedings or if a receiver is appointed for
         the business, property, affairs or revenues of Sublessee, or
     (c) Sublessee ceases to conduct business from the Subleased Premises, or
     (d) Sublessee fails to observe, perform, and keep each and every material
         covenant, agreement, provision, stipulation and condition herein
         contained to be observed, performed, and kept by Sublessee, or
     (e) If a writ of execution is issued against Sublessee.  Sublessee may cure
         any default under this Sublease at any time within 10 days after
         written notice is received by Sublessee from Sublessor.

7.4  Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Sublessee, Sublessor shall
     have, in addition to other remedies available to Sublessor at law or in
     equity, the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies
     (each and all of which shall be cumulative and non-exclusive) without any
     notice or demand whatsoever:

     (a) Terminate this Sublease, in which case Sublessee shall immediately
         surrender the Subleased Premises to Sublessor, and if Sublessee fails
         to do so, Sublessor may enter and take possession of the Subleased
         Premises and expel or remove the Sublessee and any other person who may
         be occupying the Subleased Premises or any part thereof, without being
         liable for prosecution or any claim or damages therefore; and Sublessor
         may recover from Sublessee the following:

          (i)   the worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent which has been
                earned at the time of termination, plus
          (ii)  the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
                Rent which would have been earned after termination until the
                time of award exceeds the amount of such loss of Rent that
                Sublessee proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
          (iii) the worth at the time of award by which the unpaid Rent for the
                balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount
                of such loss of rent that Sublessee proves could have been
                reasonably avoided; plus
          (iv)  any other amount necessary to compensate Sublessor for all the
                detriment proximately caused by Sublessee's failure to perform
                its obligations under this Sublease; and
          (v)   at Sublessor's election, such other amounts in addition to or in
                lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by
                applicable law.

     (b) If Sub lessor does not elect to terminate this Sublease on account of
         any default by Sublessee, Sublessor may, from time to time, without
         terminating this Sublease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under
         this Sublease, including the right to recover all Rent as it becomes
         due.
     (c) If the Sublessee defaults under this agreement, Sublessor shall have
         the right to terminate any and all sub leases, licenses, concessions or
         other arrangements for possession entered into by Sublessee and
         affecting the Subleased Premises or may, in Sublessor's sole
         discretion, succeed to Sublessee's interest in such subleases,
         licenses, concessions or arrangements.  In the event of Sublessor's
         election to succeed to Sublessee's interest in any such subleases,
         licenses, concessions or arrangements, Sublessee shall, as of the date
         of notice by Sublessor of such election, have no further right to or
         interest in the rent or other consideration receivable thereunder.

8.0  Liability and Damages

     Sublessee shall maintain at its own expense liability and fire insurance
covering the Subleased Premises and its improvements and personal property
residing there in an amount not less than acceptable to a prudent owner.
Sublessee's liability insurance shall include Sublessor and Master Lessor as
insured parties, and cover death, personal injury and property damage in the
amount of $1 million per occurrence and $3 million cumulative.

     If the Subleased Premises become unusable due to damage by fire or other
casualty, then Article 16.00 of the Master Lease shall apply to the relationship
between the Sublessor and Sublessee as well.

9.0  Arbitration of Disputes

        MEDIATION OF DISPUTES. Sublessee and Sublessor hereby agree to and shall
     mediate any dispute or claim between them arising out of this Sublease or
     any resulting transaction. The mediation shall be held prior to any court
     action or arbitration. The mediation shall be confidential and in
     accordance with California Evidence Code # 1152.5. If the parties are
     unable to agree on a mediator within thirty (30) days of written notice by
     one party to the other of said party's desire to seek mediation, the
     Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of Santa Clara County shall have
     jurisdiction to appoint a mediator. If the mediator determines that
     additional mediation sessions are warranted, such mediation sessions shall
     be conducted in accordance with this Article. Should either party attempt
     an arbitration or a court action before attempting to mediate, said party
     shall not be entitled to attorney's fees that might otherwise be payable to
     said party in a court action or arbitration, and such party may, in
     addition, be subject to sanctions by the arbitrator or judge who determines
     that said party has resisted mediation. Mediation fees, if any, shall be
     divided equally by the parties.

        ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES.  Subject to the foregoing Paragraph, Sublessee
     and Sublessor agree that any dispute relating to this Sublease shall be
     subject to neutral, binding arbitration and not by court action, unless
     this Sublease expressly states that such dispute is not subject to
     arbitration or the parties subsequently agree not to submit the dispute to
     arbitration.

        The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of
     either the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") or Judicial Arbitration
     and Mediation Services, Inc./Endispute ("JAMS/Endispute"). The selection
     shall be made by the party first filing for arbitration. The parties to an
     arbitration may agree in writing to use different rules and/or arbitrators.
     In all other respects, the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance
     with Part III, Title 9 (beginning with Section 1280) of the California Code
     of Civil Procedure. The arbitration shall be held in San Mateo County,
     California. Subject to the provisions of this Lease, an award of the
     arbitrator selected by the parties or by the court shall be final and
     binding upon the parties hereto and judgment may be entered upon it in a
     court having jurisdiction pursuant to Section 36.E. hereof. The expenses of
     such arbitration shall be borne equally by Sublessor and Sublessee. In any
     arbitration under this Lease the parties shall be entitled to discovery in
     like manner as if the matter were a California Superior Court trial.
