By accepting an Incentive Award, a Participant thereby agrees that the award shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. 7. OPTIONS. (a) Identification of Options. Each Option shall be clearly identified in the applicable Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. (b) Exercise Price.

F-5 347 (2) An Option may be exercised for all or any portion of the shares as to which it is exercisable, provided, that no partial exercise of an Option shall be for an aggregate exercise price of less than $1,000. The partial exercise of an Option shall not cause the expiration, termination or cancellation of the remaining portion thereof. (3) An Option shall be exercised by delivering notice to the Company's principal office, to the attention of its Secretary, no less than one business day in advance of the effective date of the proposed exercise. Such notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised and the effective date of the proposed exercise and shall be signed by the Participant or other person then having the right to exercise the Option.

(d) Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. (1) To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of shares of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year under the Plan and any other stock option plan of the Company (or any Subsidiary of the Company) shall exceed $100,000, or such higher value as may be permitted under Section 422 of the Code, such Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. Such Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the date on which each such Incentive Stock Option is granted. (2) No Incentive Stock Option may be granted to an individual if, at the time of the grant, such individual owns stock possessing more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company unless (i) the exercise price per share of such Incentive Stock Option is at least 110 percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted and (ii) such Incentive Stock Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted.

(1) Unless the applicable Award Agreement provides otherwise, in the event that the employment of a Participant with the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall terminate for any reason other than death, Disability or Cause, (i) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they are exercisable at the time of such termination, shall remain exercisable until the date that is ninety (90) days after such termination, on which date they shall expire, and (ii) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were not exercisable at the time of such termination, shall expire at the close of business on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of its term.

The Committee may grant in connection with any Option granted hereunder one or more Tandem SARs relating to a number of shares of Common Stock less than or equal to the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the related Option. A Tandem SAR may be granted at the same time as, or, in the case of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, subsequent to the time that, its related Option is granted. (a) Benefit Upon Exercise.

The exercise of an Option, or the cancellation, termination or expiration of an Option (other than pursuant to this Section 8(b)(2)), with respect to a number of shares of Common Stock shall cause the automatic and immediate cancellation of any related Tandem SARs to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock remaining subject to such Option is less than the number of shares then subject to such Tandem SAR. Such Tandem SARs shall be canceled in the order in which they become exercisable. (3) A Tandem SAR may be exercised for all or any portion of the shares as to which the related Option is exercisable; provided, that no partial exercise of a Tandem SAR shall be for less than a number of shares having an aggregate option exercise price of less than $1,000.

(a) Benefit Upon Exercise.

If the grantee is employed by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company on an Issue Date (which may be the date of grant), the specified number of shares of Restricted Stock shall be issued in accordance with the provisions of Section 10(e) of the Plan. Provided that all conditions to the vesting of a share of Restricted Stock imposed pursuant to Section 10(b) of the plan are satisfied, and except as provided in Section 10(g) of the Plan, upon the occurrence of the Vesting Date with respect to a share of Restricted Stock, such share shall vest and the restrictions of Section 10(c) of the Plan shall lapse. (b) Conditions to Vesting. At the time of the grant of shares of Restricted Stock, the Committee may impose such restrictions or conditions to the vesting of such shares as it, in its absolute discretion, deems appropriate. (c) Restrictions on Transfer Prior to Vesting. Prior to the vesting of a share of Restricted Stock, no transfer of a Participant's rights with respect to such share, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall be permitted. Immediately upon any attempt to transfer such rights, such share, and all of the rights related thereto, shall be forfeited by the Participant. (d) Dividends on Restricted Stock. The Committee in its discretion may require that any dividends paid on shares of Restricted Stock shall be held in escrow until all restrictions on such shares have lapsed. (e) Issuance of Certificates. (1) Reasonably promptly after the Issue Date with respect to shares of Restricted Stock, the Company shall cause to be issued a stock certificate, registered in the name of the Participant to whom such shares were granted, evidencing such shares; provided, that the Company shall not cause such a stock certificate to be issued unless it has received a stock power duly endorsed in blank with respect to such shares. Each such stock certificate shall bear the following legend: The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions (including forfeiture provisions and restrictions against transfer) contained in the 1999 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan of Caldera Systems, Inc. and an Award Agreement entered into between the registered owner of such shares and Caldera Systems, Inc. A copy of such Plan and Award Agreement is on file in the office of the Secretary of Caldera Systems, Inc., 240 West Center Street, Orem, Utah 84057. Such legend shall not be removed until such shares vest pursuant to the terms of the applicable Award Agreement. (2) Each certificate issued pursuant to this Section 10(e), together with the stock powers relating to the shares of Restricted Stock evidenced by such certificate, shall be held by the Company unless the Committee determines otherwise. (f) Consequences of Vesting. Upon the vesting of a share of Restricted Stock pursuant to the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, the restrictions of Section 10(c) of the Plan shall lapse, except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement. Reasonably promptly after a share of Restricted Stock vests, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Participant to whom such shares were granted, a certificate evidencing such share, free of the legend set forth in Section 10(e) of the Plan. (g) Effect of Termination of Employment. (1) Subject to such other provision as the Committee may set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, and to the Committee's amendment authority pursuant to Section 4 of the Plan, upon the termination of a Participant's employment by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for any reason other than Cause, any and all shares to which restrictions on transferability apply shall be immediately forfeited by the Participant and transferred to the Company, provided that if the F-9 351 Committee, in its sole discretion and within thirty (30) days after such termination of employment notifies the Participant in writing of its decision not to terminate the Participant's rights in such shares, then the Participant shall continue to be the owner of such shares subject to such continuing restrictions as the Committee may prescribe in such notice. If shares of Restricted Stock are forfeited in accordance with the provision of this Section 10, the Company shall also have the right to require the return of all dividends paid on such shares, whether by termination of any escrow arrangement under which such dividends are held or otherwise. (2) In the event of the termination of a Participant's employment for Cause, all shares of Restricted Stock granted to such Participant which have not vested as of the date of such termination shall immediately be returned to the Company, together with any dividends paid on such shares. (h) Effect of Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, all restrictions on outstanding vested shares shall immediately lapse and all outstanding shares of Restricted Stock which have not theretofore vested shall immediately expire and be cancelled. (i) Special Provisions Regarding Restricted Stock Awards. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Restricted Stock granted pursuant to this Section 10 shall be based on the attainment by the Company (or a Subsidiary or division of the Company if applicable) of performance goals pre-established by the Committee, based on one or more of the following criteria: (i) the attainment of a specified percentage return on total stockholder equity of the Company; (ii) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in earnings per share of Common Stock; (iii) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in net income of the Company; and (iv) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in profit before taxation of the Company (or a Subsidiary or division of the Company if applicable).

Provided that all conditions to the vesting of a share of Phantom Stock imposed pursuant to Section 11(c) of the Plan are satisfied, and except as provided in Section 11(d) of the Plan, upon the occurrence of the Vesting Date with respect to a share of Phantom Stock, such share shall vest. (b) Benefit Upon Vesting. Upon the vesting of a share of Phantom Stock, the Participant shall be entitled to receive in cash, within 30 days of the date on which such share vests, an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date on which such share of Phantom Stock vests and (ii) the aggregate amount of cash dividends paid with respect to a share of Common Stock during the period commencing on the date on which the share of Phantom Stock was granted and terminating on the date on which such share vests. (c) Conditions to Vesting. At the time of the grant of shares of Phantom Stock, the Committee may impose such restrictions or conditions to the vesting of such shares as it, in its absolute discretion, deems appropriate. (d) Effect of Termination of Employment. (1) Subject to such other provisions as the Committee may set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, and to the Committee's amendment authority pursuant to Section 4 of the Plan, shares of Phantom Stock that have not vested, together with any dividends credited on such shares, shall be forfeited upon the Participant's termination of employment for any reason other than Cause. F-10 352 (2) In the event of the termination of a Participant's employment for Cause, all shares of Phantom Stock granted to such Participant which have not vested as of the date of such termination shall immediately be forfeited, together with any dividends credited on such shares. (e) Effect of Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, all outstanding shares of Phantom Stock which have not theretofore vested shall immediately expire and be cancelled. (f) Special Provisions Regarding Phantom Stock Awards. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Phantom Stock granted pursuant to this Section 11 to Executive Officers shall be based on the attainment by the Company (or a Subsidiary or division of the Company if applicable) of performance goals pre-established by the Committee, based on one or more of the following criteria: (i) the attainment of a specified percentage return on total stockholder equity of the Company; (ii) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in earnings per share of Common Stock from continuing operations; (iii) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in net income of the Company; and (iv) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in profit before taxation of the Company (or a Subsidiary or division of the Company if applicable). Attainment of any such performance criteria shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as in effect from time to time. No cash payment in respect of any Phantom Stock award will be paid to an Executive Officer until the attainment of the respective performance measures have been certified by the Committee. 12. STOCK BONUSES. In the event that the Committee grants a Stock Bonus, a certificate for the shares of Common Stock comprising such Stock Bonus shall be issued in the name of the Participant to whom such grant was made and delivered to such Participant as soon as practicable after the date on which such Stock Bonus is payable. 13. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. No person shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by or relating to any Incentive Award until the date of issuance of a stock certificate with respect to such shares. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 3(c) of the Plan, no adjustment to any Incentive Award shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date occurs prior to the date such stock certificate is issued. 14. NO SPECIAL EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS; NO RIGHT TO INCENTIVE AWARD. Nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall confer upon any Participant any right with respect to the continuation of employment by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, subject to the terms of any separate employment agreement to the contrary, at any time to terminate such employment or to increase or decrease the compensation of the Participant. No person shall have any claim or right to receive an Incentive Award hereunder. The Committee's granting of an Incentive Award to a Participant at any time shall neither require the Committee to grant any other Incentive Award to such Participant or other person at any time or preclude the Committee from making subsequent grants to such Participant or any other person. 15. SECURITIES MATTERS. (a) The Company shall be under no obligation to effect the registration pursuant to the Securities Act of any interests in the Plan or any shares of Common Stock to be issued hereunder or to effect similar compliance under any state laws. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to cause to be issued or delivered any certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Plan unless and until the Company is advised by its counsel that the issuance and delivery of such certificates is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authority and the F-11 353 requirements of any securities exchange on which shares of Common Stock are traded. The Committee may require, as a condition of the issuance and delivery of certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof and of the applicable Award Agreement, that the recipient of such shares make such covenants, agreements and representations, and that such certificates bear such legends, as the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable. (b) The transfer of any shares of Common Stock hereunder shall be effective only at such time as counsel to the Company shall have determined that the issuance and delivery of such shares is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authority and the requirements of any securities exchange on which shares of Common Stock are traded. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, defer the effectiveness of any transfer of shares of Common Stock hereunder in order to allow the issuance of such shares to be made pursuant to registration or an exemption from registration or other methods for compliance available under federal or state securities laws. The Committee shall inform the Participant in writing of its decision to defer the effectiveness of a transfer. During the period of such deferral in connection with the exercise of an Option, the Participant may, by written notice, withdraw such exercise and obtain the refund of any amount paid with respect thereto. 16. WITHHOLDING TAXES. Whenever cash is to be paid pursuant to an Incentive Award, the Company shall have the right to deduct therefrom an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto. Whenever shares of Common Stock are to be delivered pursuant to an Incentive Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant to remit to the Company in cash an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto. With the approval of the Committee, a Participant may satisfy the foregoing requirement by electing to have the Company withhold from delivery shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the amount of tax to be withheld. Such shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date on which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined (the "Tax Date"). Fractional share amounts shall be settled in cash. Such a withholding election may be made with respect to all or any portion of the shares to be delivered pursuant to an Incentive Award. 17. NOTIFICATION OF ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(B) OF THE CODE. If any Participant shall, in connection with the acquisition of shares of Common Stock under the Plan, make the election permitted under Section 83(b) of the Code (i.e., an election to include in gross income in the year of transfer the amounts specified in Section 83(b)), such Participant shall notify the Company of such election within 10 days of filing notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service, in addition to any filing and a notification required pursuant to regulation issued under the authority of Code Section 83(b). 18. NOTIFICATION UPON DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION UNDER SECTION 421(B) OF THE CODE. Each Award Agreement with respect to an Incentive Stock Option shall require the Participant to notify the Company of any disposition of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of such Option under the circumstances described in Section 421(b) of the Code (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions), within 10 days of such disposition. 19. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. The Board of Directors may, at any time, suspend or terminate the Plan or revise or amend it in any respect whatsoever; provided, however, that stockholder approval shall be required if and to the extent the Board of Directors determines that such approval is appropriate for purposes of satisfying Section 162(m) or 422 of the Code or to the extent such approval is required by the rules of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed. Nothing herein shall restrict the Committee's ability to exercise its discretionary authority pursuant to Section 4 of the Plan, which discretion may be exercised without F-12 354 amendment to the Plan. No action hereunder may, without the consent of a Participant, reduce the Participant's rights under any outstanding Incentive Award. 20. TRANSFERS UPON DEATH; NON-ASSIGNABILITY. Upon the death of a Participant, outstanding Incentive Awards granted to such Participant may be exercised only by the executor or administrator of the Participant's estate or by a person who shall have acquired the right to such exercise by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. No transfer of an Incentive Award by will or the laws of descent and distribution shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Committee shall have been furnished with (a) written notice thereof and with a copy of the will and/or such evidence as the Committee may deem necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and (b) an agreement by the transferee to comply with all the terms and conditions of the Incentive Award that are or would have been applicable to the Participant and to be bound by the acknowledgments made by the Participant in connection with the grant of the Incentive Award. During a Participant's lifetime, the Committee may permit the transfer, assignment or other encumbrance of an outstanding Option or outstanding shares of Restricted Stock unless such Option is an Incentive Stock Option and the Committee and the Participant intend that it shall retain such status. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to any conditions as the Committee may prescribe, a Participant may, upon providing written notice to the Secretary of the Company, elect to transfer any or all Options granted to such Participant pursuant to the Plan to members of his or her immediate family, including, but not limited to, children, grandchildren and spouse or to trusts for the benefit of such immediate family members or to partnerships in which such family members are the only partners; provided, however, that no such transfer by any Participant may be made in exchange for consideration. 21. EXPENSES AND RECEIPTS. The expenses of the Plan shall be paid by the Company. Any proceeds received by the Company in connection with any Incentive Award will be used for general corporate purposes. 22. FAILURE TO COMPLY. In addition to the remedies of the Company elsewhere provided for herein, failure by a Participant (or beneficiary or transferee) to comply with any of the terms and conditions of the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, unless such failure is remedied by such Participant (or beneficiary or transferee) within ten days after notice of such failure by the Committee, shall be grounds for the cancellation and forfeiture of such Incentive Award, in whole or in part, as the Committee, in its absolute discretion, may determine. 23. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF PLAN. The Plan became effective on the Effective Date, but the Plan (and any grants of Incentive Awards made prior to stockholder approval of the Plan) shall be subject to the requisite approval of the stockholders of the Company. In the absence of such approval, such Incentive Awards shall be null and void. Unless earlier terminated by the Board of Directors, the right to grant Incentive Awards under the Plan will terminate on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. Incentive Awards outstanding at Plan termination will remain in effect according to their terms and the provisions of the Plan. 24. APPLICABLE LAW. Except to the extent preempted by any applicable federal law, the Plan will be construed and administered in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, without reference to the principles of conflicts of law. F-13 355 25. PARTICIPANT RIGHTS. No Participant shall have any claim to be granted any Incentive Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment for Participants. Except as provided specifically herein, a Participant or a transferee of an Incentive Award shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by any award until the date of the issuance of a Common Stock certificate to him for such shares. 26. UNFUNDED STATUS OF AWARDS. The Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Incentive Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company. 27. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan. The Committee shall determine whether cash, other Incentive Awards, or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated. 28. BENEFICIARY. A Participant may file with the Committee a written designation of a beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Committee and may, from time to time, amend or revoke such designation. If no designated beneficiary survives the Participant, the executor or administrator of the Participant's estate shall be deemed to be the Participant's beneficiary. 29. INTERPRETATION. The Plan is designed and intended to comply with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act and, with Section 162(m) of the Code, and all provisions hereof shall be construed in a manner to so comply.

BACKGROUND A. The Company has adopted the Caldera Systems, Inc. 1999 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "1999 Plan") pursuant to which the Company may grant Options and other Incentive Awards to employees, directors and certain consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment but not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the 1999 Plan. B. The Company desires to amend the 1999 Plan in order to certain changes and administrative clarifications to the 1999 Plan. AMENDMENT NOW, THEREFORE, the 1999 Plan is hereby amended as follows: 1. Allow Grant of Non-Qualified Options with Exercise Price Below FMV. The second sentence of Section 7(b) of the 1999 Plan is amended to read as follows: The Option exercise price per share shall be set by the Committee in its discretion on a case by case basis, but in the case of an Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. 2. Allow Exercise of Non-Qualified Options Up to 120 Days After Termination of Service. Clause (i) of Section 7(e)(1) of the 1999 Plan is amended to read as follows: (i) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent they are exercisable at the time of such termination, shall remain exercisable until the date which is 90 days (or 120 days in the case of a "Non-Qualified Stock Option")after the date of such termination, on which date they shall expire, and ... 3. Allow Exercise of Options Up to 30 Days After Termination for Cause. Section 7(e)(3) of the 1999 Plan is amended to read as follows: (3) Unless an applicable Award Agreement issued after the date hereof provides otherwise, if a Participant's employment with the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is terminated for Cause, Options granted to the Participant, to the extent they are then exercisable, shall remain exercisable for 30 days following the date of termination of employment, on which date they shall expire. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option shall be exercisable after expiration of its term. 4. Allow Cash Out, Conversion or Other Disposition of Vested Options and SARS Upon Change in Control. (a) Section 7(f) of the 1999 Plan is amended to add the following sentences at the end thereof: Any vested, exercisable Options outstanding at the time of a Change in Control shall be cashed out, converted to options of the acquiring entity, assumed by the acquiring entity or otherwise disposed of in the manner provided in any shareholder-approved agreement or plan governing or providing for such Change in Control ("Change in Control Agreement"); J-1 362 provided that any such cash-out, conversion, assumption or disposition of the Options shall not deprive the Option holder of the inherent value of his Options, measured solely by the excess of the Fair Market Value of the underlying Option shares immediately prior to the Change in Control over the Option exercise price, without the holder's consent. In the absence of such governing provisions in a Change in Control Agreement, the Committee in its sole discretion may on a case by case basis require any vested, exercisable Options that remain outstanding upon a Change in Control to be cashed out and terminated in exchange for a lump sum cash payment, shares of the acquiring entity or a combination thereof equal in value to the fair market value of the Option, measured in the manner described above, immediately prior to the Change in Control. Any non-vested Options shall terminate upon a Change in Control unless: (i) otherwise provided in the Change in Control Agreement or in a written agreement , such as a severance agreement, between the Company and the Participant; or (ii) the Committee in its sole discretion on a case by case basis elects in writing to waive termination (b) Section 9(d) of the 1999 Plan is amended to add the following sentence at the end thereof: Any vested, exercisable Non-Tandem SARs shall, upon a Change in Control, be cashed out, converted, assumed or otherwise disposed of in the same manner as applies to Options under Section 7(f). 5.

(a) Section 10(i) of the 1999 Plan is amended to read as follows: The Committee may designate on a case-by-case basis whether Restricted Stock Awards are intended to be "performance based compensation" within the meaning of Code Section 162(m). The grant of Restricted Stock so designated shall be based on the attainment by the Company (or a Subsidiary or division of the Company if applicable) of performance goals pre-established by the Committee, based on one or more of the following criteria: (i) the attainment of a specified percentage return on total stockholder equity of the Company; (ii) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in earnings per share of Common Stock; (iii) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in net income of the Company; and (iv) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in profit before taxation of the Company (or a Subsidiary or division of the Company if applicable).
