Company. Payment of such price shall be made at the option of the Holder hereof

This Option is subject to the terms and conditions of the Company's 2005 Stock
Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), the terms of which are hereby incorporated herein

of this Option, the Holder receives shares that are subject to a "substantial
risk of forfeiture" and are not "transferable" as those terms are defined for
purposes of Section 83(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, then such Holder may
elect under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code to include in the
Holder's gross income, for the Holder's taxable year in which the shares are
transferred to the Holder, the excess of the fair market value of such shares at
the time of transfer (determined without regard to any restriction other than
one that by its terms will never lapse), over the amount paid for the shares. If

Section 9. Compliance with the Act; Transferability.

9.1. Compliance with the Act. The Holder acknowledges that neither this Option
nor the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Option have been
registered under the Act or the securities laws of any state and agrees that
this Option and all shares purchased upon exercise hereof shall be disposed of
only in accordance with the Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder and applicable state securities
laws. Except as provided herein, the Holder further agrees not to offer, sell,
transfer or otherwise dispose of this Option or any shares issuable upon
exercise of this Option to any other person unless a registration statement
covering the sale, transfer or other disposition shall then be effective under
the Act and except in compliance with any applicable state securities laws, or
there shall have been delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Company to the effect that such offer, sale, transfer or other
disposition may be effected without compliance with the registration and
prospectus delivery requirements of the Act and any applicable state securities
laws. Each certificate evidencing shares purchased upon exercise of this Option
shall bear a legend to the foregoing effect, and the Holder and any other Person
to whom a certificate for shares or a new warrant is to be delivered shall be
required, at or before receipt of such certificate or warrant, to execute and
deliver to the Company a letter to the effect that it is acquiring the shares
evidenced by such certificate or such warrant for its own account and not with a
view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof.

9.2. Transferability of Options. This Option shall be transferable only on the
books of the Company maintained at the principal office of the Company. The

Exercise Price, the Company will give written notice thereof to the Holder.

10.2. Dividend Distributions, etc. The Company will give written notice to the
Holder at least ten calendar days prior to the date on which the Company closes
its books or takes a record (i) with respect to any dividend or distribution
upon the Common Stock, and (ii) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer
to holders of Common Stock (although the Company shall have no obligation to
cause to occur any of the events set forth in the foregoing subparagraphs (i) or
(ii)).

10.3. Other Events. The Company will give written notice to the Holder at least
ten (10) calendar days prior to the date on which any dissolution, liquidation,
capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger (in which the
Company is not the surviving corporation) or sale of all or substantially all of
the Company's assets will take place.

Section 11. Company Repurchase Rights.

(a) In the event a Holder ceases to be employed by the Company or its
subsidiaries (the "Termination"), the Earned Option granted to such Holder and
the Shares of Common Stock (or other securities received upon exercise of this
Option received upon the exercise of Earned Options (whether held by the Holder
or otherwise) shall be subject to repurchase by the Company on or after the
Holder's Termination date pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Section 11 (the "Repurchase Option"). The Company shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to purchase all, but not less than all, the Earned Option
granted or issued to the Holder for the Option Repurchase Price (as defined
below) multiplied by the number of Shares of Common Stock represented by the
Option(s) to be repurchased. The Company shall concurrently therewith also have
the right, but not the obligation, to purchase all, but not less than all, of
the Conversion Shares for the Stock Repurchase Price (as defined below)
multiplied by the number of Conversion Shares to be repurchased.

(b) When and as permitted under paragraph (a) above, the Company may elect to
purchase all of the Earned Options and Conversion Shares by delivering written
notice (the "Repurchase Notice") to the Holder. The Repurchase Notice will set
forth the number of Options and the Conversion Shares to be acquired from such
Holder, the aggregate consideration to be paid for such securities and the time
and place for the closing of the transaction.

(c) The closing of the purchase of the Options and Conversion Shares pursuant to
the Repurchase Option shall take place on the date designated by the Company in
the Repurchase Notice, which date shall not be more than forty-five (45) days
nor less than two (2) business days after the delivery of the Repurchase Notice.
The Company will pay for the Earned Option and Conversion Shares to be purchased
pursuant to the Repurchase Option by delivery of (i) a check or wire transfer of
funds, (ii) a subordinated promissory note payable prior to the six (6) month
anniversary of the closing of such purchase and bearing interest (payable
quarterly) at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate of interest as announced
by Citibank, N.A. plus 1% or (iii) both (i) and (ii), in the aggregate amount of
the Option Repurchase Price and/or Stock Repurchase Price for such Earned Option
or Conversion Shares. Any promissory note issued by the Company pursuant to this
Section 11(c) shall be subject to any restrictive covenants under any credit
agreements to which the Company is subject at the time of such purchase. The
Company will be entitled to receive customary representations and warranties as
to title from the sellers regarding such sale and to require all sellers'
signatures be guaranteed. The Company may elect to assign its right to purchase
hereunder to the shareholders of the Company (which right to purchase shall be
distributed pro rata to all shareholders (other than the Holder), based upon the
number of votes held by such shareholders). The other shareholders (other than
the Holder) shall have the same rights and shall be subject to the same
obligations as the Company to purchase the Earned Option or the Conversion
Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Notice.

(d) The Option Repurchase Price and the Stock Repurchase Price shall be equal to
the fair market value of the Earned Options or Conversion Shares, as the case
may be, as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in its sole and
absolute discretion.

referred to in this Option will be in writing and will be delivered personally,
mailed by registered or certified first class mail, return receipt requested,
postage prepaid or transmitted by telegram, telecopy or telex, and will be
deemed to have been given when so delivered, mailed or transmitted (a) to the
Company, at its principal executive offices and (b) to the Holder of this
Option, at such Holder's address as it appears in the records of the Company.

Section 14. Other. The Holder hereof may be treated by the Company and all other
persons dealing with this Option as the absolute owner hereof for any purpose
and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented hereby, or to the
transfer hereof on the books of the Company any notice to the contrary
notwithstanding, and until such transfer on such books, the Company may treat
the Holder hereof as the owner for all purposes.
