                                Statement of Work

                                  Introduction

Project Pluto is an improvement to the SoftRemote installation process that
allows user-based customization to be done. The installation can be adjusted
post build time (typically by the OEM or system administrator) to install
additional components. It can also be adjusted to present specific dialogs
and/or billboards to the end user. In addition, there will be a method in which
the client can be configured as a "managed client" with reduced functionality
available to the end user.

This Pluto SOW document defines the major documents comprising the overall
project and defines other project-related topics.

                                   Definitions

2.1 Pluto - refers only to the installation-related code and files built
in-and-around InstallShield.

2.2 The Product - refers to the Pluto installation software combined with
SoftRemote v7.0.x. (Version 7.0.1 is the current release of the client and it is
expected that the Product version number will be bumped to 7.0.2 when the Pluto
enhancements are made. No other functional changes, bug fixes or enhancements
will be made to the base SoftRemote client.

                                 Pluto Documents

3.1 Pluto Requirements - marketing requirements are specified, as negotiated
with NetScreen. Currently complete and available.

3.2 Pluto Functional Spec - design specification for technical behavior and
operation, as iterated and approved with NetScreen. Currently complete and
available.

3.3 Pluto Test Plan - document describing specific tests to be performed on the
product in SafeNet QA testing lab. To be delivered with the Product on-or-before
the final delivery milestone.

3.4 Pluto User Interface Reference Guide - document describing the ways that
NetScreen may configure, customize, invoke or otherwise control the Product. To
be delivered with the Product on-or-before the final delivery milestone.

3.5 Pluto Release Notes - HTML document describing specific release
functionality, limitations, possible workarounds, and a list of outstanding bugs
against this Product release. To be delivered with the Product on-or-before the
final delivery milestone.

                             Operational Limitations

By nature of the specific "co-branding" product build mechanism engaged for
NetScreen, only they will have the ability to use and take advantage of any/all
features defined in Pluto for the agreed upon one (1) year period. Others,
including SafeNet with its native

                                      -4-

version of the VPN client, will have no indication of additional installer
capabilities and mechanisms. Additionally, no "backdoors" will be placed into
the code to access underlying latent mechanisms.

                         Delivery Definition & Milestone

SafeNet is committed to deliver, by December 28, 2001, the following:

5.1 A fully tested, production-qualified co-branded binary version of SoftRemote
7.0.x containing the specified installer capabilities;

5.2 All Pluto related documents enumerated in Section 3.

                           NetScreen Responsibilities

6.1 By nature of the configurability offered by Pluto, it would be beneficial
for NetScreen to supply, in advance of the delivery date, their actual
components to be used in product integration. Otherwise, SafeNet will provide
trivial components (INI files, referenced applications, graphic components, GUI
banners, et a1) constituting a demonstrable system, and NetScreen will need to
substitute and integrate their actual target components in order to prepare the
product for final release.

6.2 Again by nature of the flexibility and configurability offered by Pluto,
NetScreen may find it necessary to modify the HTML cover page and/or the online
Help (CHM files) to properly reflect specific behavior and GUI differences from
the base SoftRemote product.

                         Product Support and Maintenance

SafeNet will support the Pluto component of the Product on v7.0.x and all later
versions of the SoftRemote client, much in the same manner as proscribed in the
company's normal product support and maintenance commitments for SoftRemote,
with all attendant response times, communications, etc.

                                  Fee Schedule

The Fee for the work performed per the SoW is ***** Dollars ($*****), a Fee
which is based on SafeNet's standard professional services rate of ***** Dollars
(US $*****) per day per engineer. This Fee is a flat fee for the delivery of a
final product conforming to the specifications as agreed upon by the Parties.
Pursuant to the SoW, if the final Product is not delivered on or before SafeNet
shall discount the fees associated with the services performed under this
amendment by a rate of ***** percent (*****%) per business day during the
duration of the delayed delivery.

The Fee is to be paid according to the following schedule:

100% upon delivery of the Deliverable(s) outlined in the SoW
