TO
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
The following provisions are hereby incorporated into, and are hereby
made a part of, that certain Stock Option Agreement dated 2-- (the "Option
Agreement") by and between FaxSav Incorporated (the "Corporation") and 1--
("Optionee") evidencing the stock option granted on such date to Optionee under
the terms of the Corporation's 1996 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan, and such

Addendum, to the extent not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Option Agreement.
INVOLUNTARY TERMINATION FOLLOWING
CHANGE IN CONTROL
1. The exercisability of the option shall not accelerate upon the
occurrence of a Change in Control, and the option shall, over Optionee's
continued period of Service after the Change in Control, continue to become
exercisable for the Option Shares in accordance with the provisions of the
Option Agreement. However, immediately upon an Involuntary Termination of
Optionee's Service within eighteen (18) months following the Change in Control,
the exercisability of this option, to the extent the option is at the time
outstanding but not otherwise fully exercisable, shall automatically accelerate
so that the option shall immediately become fully exercisable for all the Option
Shares at the time subject to the option and may be exercised for any or all of
those shares as fully vested shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the
EARLIER of (i) the Expiration Date or (ii) the expiration of the one (1)-year
period measured from the date of the Involuntary Termination.
2. For purposes of this Addendum, a CHANGE IN CONTROL shall be
deemed to occur in the event of a change in ownership or control of the
Corporation effected through either of the following transactions:
(i) the acquisition, directly or indirectly, by any person
or related group of persons (other than the Corporation or a person
that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under
common control with, the Corporation) of beneficial ownership (within
the meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended) of securities possessing more than fifty percent (50%) of the
total combined voting power of the Corporation's outstanding
securities pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made directly to the
Corporation's stockholders which the Board does not recommend such
stockholders to accept, or
(ii) a change in the composition of the Board over a period
of thirty-six (36) consecutive months or less such that a majority of
the Board members ceases by reason of one or more contested elections
for Board membership, to be comprised of individuals who either (A)
have been Board members continuously since the beginning of such
period or (B) have been elected or nominated for election as Board
members during such period by at least a majority of the Board members
described in clause (A) who were still in office at the time such
election or nomination was approved by the Board.
3. The provisions of Paragraph 1 of this Addendum shall govern the
period for which the option is to remain exercisable following the Involuntary
Termination of Optionee's Service within eighteen (18) months after the Change
in Control and shall supersede any provisions to the contrary in the Option
Agreement.
