1995 STOCK PLAN
(MAY 1999 AMENDMENT)

 

 1.  Purposes of the Plan.  The purposes of this 1995 Stock Plan are to attract
and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial
responsibility, to provide additional incentive to Employees and Consultants of
the Company and its Subsidiaries and to promote the success of the Company's
business.  Options granted under the Plan may be incentive stock options (as
defined under Section 422 of the Code) or nonstatutory stock options, as
determined by the Administrator at the time of grant of an option and subject to
the applicable provisions of Section 422 of the Code, as amended, and the
regulations promulgated thereunder.  Stock purchase rights may also be granted
under the Plan.

appointed pursuant to Section 4 of the Plan.

Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be optioned and sold under
the Plan is 126,000,000 shares of Common Stock.  The Shares may be authorized,
but unissued, or reacquired Common Stock.  If an Option should expire or become
unexercisable for any reason without having been exercised in full, the
unpurchased Shares that were subject thereto shall, unless the Plan shall have
been terminated, become available for future grant under the Plan. In addition,
any Shares of Common Stock which are retained by the Company upon exercise of an
Option or Stock Purchase Right in order to satisfy the exercise or purchase
price for such Option or Stock Purchase Right or any withholding taxes due with
respect to such exercise shall be treated as not issued and shall continue to be
available under the Plan.

 4.  Administration of the Plan. 

          (a)  Multiple Administrative Bodies.  If permitted by Rule 16b–3 and
by the legal requirements relating to the administration of incentive stock
option plans, if any, of applicable securities laws and the Code (collectively
the "Applicable Laws"), grants under the Plan may be made by different bodies
with respect to Directors, Officers who are not Directors and Employees or
Consultants who are not Reporting Persons.

          (b)  Administration With Respect to Reporting Persons.  With respect
to grants of Options or Stock Purchase Rights to Employees or Consultants who
are Reporting Persons, grants under the Plan shall be made by (A) the Board, if
the Board may make grants under the Plan in compliance with Rule 16b–3, or (B) a
Committee designated by the Board to make grants under the Plan, which committee
shall be constituted in such a manner as to permit grants under the Plan to
comply with Rule 16b–3, to qualify grants of Options to Named Executives as
performance–based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code and otherwise so
as to satisfy the Applicable Laws.

          (c)  Administration With Respect to Other Persons.  With respect to
grants of Options or Stock Purchase Rights to Employees or Consultants who are
not Reporting Persons, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a
Committee designated by the Board, which committee shall be constituted in such
a manner as to satisfy the Applicable Laws.

          (d)  General.  If a Committee has been appointed pursuant to
subsection (ii) or (iii) of this Section 4(a), such Committee shall continue to
serve in its designated capacity until otherwise directed by the Board.  From
time to time the Board may increase the size of the Committee and appoint
additional members thereof, remove members (with or without cause) and appoint
new members in substitution therefor, fill vacancies, however caused, and remove
all members of the Committee and thereafter directly administer the Plan, all to
the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws, and, in the case of a Committee
appointed under subsection (ii), to the extent permitted by Rule 16b–3, and to
the extent required under Section 162(m) of the Code to qualify grants of
Options to Named Executives as performance–based compensation.

          (e)  Powers of the Administrator.  Subject to the provisions of the
Plan and in the case of a Committee, the specific duties delegated by the Board
to such Committee, and subject to the approval of any relevant authorities,
including the approval, if required, of any Stock Exchange, the Administrator
shall have the authority, in its discretion:

          (i)       to determine the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock, in
accordance with Section 2(m) of the Plan;

          (ii)      to select the Consultants and Employees to whom Options and
Stock Purchase Rights may from time to time be granted hereunder;

          (iii)     to determine whether and to what extent Options and Stock
Purchase Rights or any combination thereof are granted hereunder;

          (iv)     to determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be
covered by each such award granted hereunder;

          (v)      to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan;

          (vi)     to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with
the terms of the Plan, of any award granted hereunder, including, but not
limited to, the share price and any restriction or limitation, the vesting of
any Option or the acceleration of vesting or waiver of a forfeiture restructure,
based in each case on such factors as the Administrator shall determine, in its
sole discretion;

          (vii)    to determine whether and under what circumstances an Option
may be settled in cash under Section 10(g) instead of Common Stock;

          (viii)    to reduce the exercise price of any Option to the then
current Fair Market Value if the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock covered
by such Option shall have declined since the date the Option was granted;

          (ix)     to determine the terms and restrictions applicable to Stock
Purchase Rights and the Restricted Stock purchased by exercising such Stock
Purchase Rights; and

          (x)      to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and awards
granted pursuant to the Plan;

          (xi)     in order to fulfill the purposes of the Plan and without
amending the Plan, to modify grants of Options or Stock Purchase Rights to
participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside of the United States
in order to recognize differences in local law, tax policies or customs.

          (f)  Effect of Administrator's Decision.  All decisions,
determinations and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final and
binding on all holders of Options or Stock Purchase Rights.

 5.  Eligibility. 

          (a)  Recipients of Grants.  Nonstatutory Stock Options and Stock
Purchase Rights may be granted to Employees and Consultants; provided, however,
that no person subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16 of the
Exchange Act may receive an option or stock purchase right unless such person is
employed by or a consultant to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary.
Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees, provided, however,
that Employees of an Affiliate shall be not be eligible to receive Incentive
Stock Options.  An Employee or Consultant who has been granted an Option or
Stock Purchase Right may, if he or she is otherwise eligible, be granted
additional Options or Stock Purchase Rights.

          (b)  Type of Option.  Each Option shall be designated in the written
option agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock
Option.  However, notwithstanding such designations, to the extent that the
aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares with respect to which Options designated
as Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any Optionee
during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options shall be treated as
Nonstatutory Stock Options.  For purposes of this Section 5(b), Incentive Stock
Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and
the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to an Incentive Stock Option shall
be determined as of the date of the grant of such Option.

          (c)  No Employment Rights.  The Plan shall not confer upon any
Optionee any right with respect to continuation of employment or consulting
relationship with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with such
Optionee's right or the Company's right to terminate his or her employment or
consulting relationship at any time, with or without cause.

 6.  Term of Plan.  The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of
its adoption by the Board of Directors or its approval by the shareholders of
the Company as described in Section 20 of the Plan.  It shall continue in effect
for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated under Section 16 of the
Plan.

 7.  Term of Option.  The term of each Option shall be the term stated in the
Option Agreement; provided, however, that the term shall be no more than ten
(10) years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be
provided in the Option Agreement and provided further that, in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Option is
granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power
of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of
the Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant thereof or such
shorter term as may be provided in the written option agreement.

 8.  Limitation on Grants to Employees.  Subject to adjustment as provided in
this Plan, the maximum number of Shares which may be subject to Options granted
to any one Employee under this Plan for any fiscal year of the Company shall be
6,000,000.

 9.  Option Exercise Price and Consideration. 

          (a)  Exercise Price.  The per share exercise price for the Shares to
be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined
by the Board and set forth in the applicable agreement, but shall be subject to
the following:

        (i)       In the case of an Incentive Stock Option that is:

          (A)     granted to an Employee who, at the time of the grant of such
Incentive Stock Option, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of
the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair
Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

          (B)     granted to any other Employee, the per Share exercise price
shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of
grant.

        (ii)      In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option that is:

          (A)     granted to a person who, at the time of grant of such Option,
is a Named Executive of the Company, the per Share exercise price shall be no
less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant; and

          (B)     granted to any person other than a Named Executive, the per
Share exercise price shall be no less than 85% of the Fair Market Value per
Share on the date of grant.

          (b)  Permissible Consideration.  The consideration to be paid for the
Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment,
shall be determined by the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock
Option, shall be determined at the time of grant) and may consist entirely of
(1) cash, (2) check, (3) promissory note, (4) other Shares that (x) in the case
of Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option, have been owned by the Optionee
for more than six months on the date of surrender or such other period as may be
required to avoid a charge to the Company's earnings, and (y) have a Fair Market
Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the
Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised, (5) authorization for the
Company to retain from the total number of Shares as to which the Option is
exercised that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of
exercise equal to the exercise price for the total number of Shares as to which
the Option is exercised, (6) delivery of a properly executed exercise notice
together with such other documentation as the Administrator and the broker, if
applicable, shall require to effect an exercise of the Option and delivery to
the Company of the sale or loan proceeds required to pay the exercise price and
any applicable income or employment taxes, (7) any combination of the foregoing
methods of payment, or (9) such other consideration and method of payment for
the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted under Applicable Laws.  In making
its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Administrator
shall consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to
benefit the Company.

 10.  Exercise of Option. 

          (a)  Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder.  Any Option
granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions
as determined by the Administrator, and reflected in the written option
agreement, which may include vesting requirements and/or performance criteria
with respect to the Company and/or the Optionee.

      An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

          An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such
exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the
Option by the person entitled to exercise the Option and the Company has
received full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is
exercised.  Full payment may, as authorized by the Board, consist of any
consideration and method of payment allowable under Section 9(b) of the Plan.
Until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the
Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) of the stock
certificate evidencing such Shares, no right to vote or receive dividends or any
other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock,
not withstanding the exercise of the Option.  The Company shall issue (or cause
to be issued) such stock certificate promptly upon exercise of the Option.  No
adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date
is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in
Section 13 of the Plan.

          Exercise of an Option in any manner shall result in a decrease in the
number of Shares that thereafter may be available, both for purposes of the Plan
and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is
exercised.

 (b)  Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship.  Subject to
Section 10(c), in the event of termination of an Optionee's Continuous Status as
an Employee or Consultant with the Company, such Optionee may, but only within
three (3) months (or such other period of time not less than thirty (30) days
and not more than twelve (12) months as is determined by the Administrator, with
such determination in the case of an Incentive Stock Option being made at the
time of grant of the Option and not exceeding three (3) months) after the date
of such termination (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term
of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise his or her Option
to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise it at the date of such
termination.  To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the
Option at the date of such termination, or if Optionee does not exercise such
Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Option
shall terminate.  No termination shall be deemed to occur and this Section
10(b) shall not apply if (I) the Optionee is a Consultant who becomes an
Employee; or (ii) the Optionee is an Employee who becomes a Consultant.

 (c)  Disability of Optionee.  Notwithstanding Section 10(b) above, in the event
of termination of an Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant
as a result of his or her total and permanent disability (within the meaning of
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may, but only within twelve (12) months
from the date of such termination (but in no event later than the expiration
date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise
the Option to the extent otherwise entitled to exercise it at the date of such
termination.  To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the
Option at the date of termination, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option
to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Option shall
terminate.

 (d)  Death of Optionee.  In the event of the death of an Optionee during the
period of Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant, or within thirty (30)
days following the termination of the Optionee's Continuous Status as an
Employee or Consultant, the Option may be exercised, at any time within twelve
(12) months following the date of death (but in no event later than the
expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option
Agreement), by the Optionee's estate or by a person who acquired the right to
exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent the
Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option at the date of death or, if
earlier, the date of termination of the Continuous Status as an Employee or
Consultant.  To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option
at the date of death or termination, as the case may be, or if Optionee does not
exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein,
the Option shall terminate.

 (e)  Extension of Exercise Period.  Notwithstanding the limitations set forth
in Sections 10(b), (c) and (d) above, the Administrator has full power and
authority to extend the period of time for which any Option granted under the
Plan is to remain exercisable following termination of an Optionee's Continuous
Status as an Employee or Consultant from the limited period set forth in the
written option agreement to such greater period of time as the Administrator
shall deem appropriate; provided, however, that in no event shall such Option be
exercisable after the specified expiration date of the Option term.

 (f)  Rule 16b–3.  Options granted to Reporting Persons shall comply with
Rule 16b–3 and shall contain such additional conditions or restrictions as may
be required thereunder to qualify for the maximum exemption for Plan
transactions.

 (g)  Buyout Provisions.  The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for
a payment in cash or Shares, an Option previously granted, based on such terms
and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the
Optionee at the time that such offer is made.

 11.  Stock Purchase Rights. 

 (a)  Rights to Purchase.  Stock Purchase Rights may be issued either alone, in
addition to, or in tandem with other awards granted under the Plan and/or cash
awards made outside of the Plan.  After the Administrator determines that it
will offer Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan, it shall advise the offeree in
writing of the terms, conditions and restrictions related to the offer,
including the number of Shares that such person shall be entitled to purchase,
the price to be paid (which price shall not be less than 85% of the Fair Market
Value of the Shares as of the date of the offer), and the time within which such
person must accept such offer, which shall in no event exceed thirty (30) days
from the date upon which the Administrator made the determination to grant the
Stock Purchase Right.  The offer shall be accepted by execution of a Restricted
Stock purchase agreement in the form determined by the Administrator.  Shares
purchased pursuant to the grant of a Stock Purchase Right shall be referred to
herein as "Restricted Stock."

 (b)  Repurchase Option.  Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the
Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase option
exercisable upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the purchaser's
employment with the Company for any reason (including death or disability).  The
purchase price for Shares repurchased pursuant to the Restricted Stock purchase
agreement shall be the original purchase price paid the purchaser and may be
paid by cancellation of any indebtedness of the Purchaser to the Company.  The
repurchase option shall lapse at such rate as the Administrator may determine.

 (c)  Other Provisions.  The Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall contain
such other terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as
may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.  In addition, the
provisions of Restricted Stock purchase agreements need not be the same with
respect to each purchaser.

 (d)  Rights as a Shareholder.  Once the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, the
purchaser shall have the rights equivalent to those of a shareholder, and shall
be a shareholder when his or her purchase is entered upon the records of the
duly authorized transfer agent of the Company.  No adjustment will be made for a
dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Stock
Purchase Right is exercised, except as provided in Section 13 of the Plan.

 12.  Stock Withholding to Satisfy Withholding Tax Obligations.  At the
discretion of the Administrator, Optionees may satisfy withholding obligations
as provided in this paragraph.  When an Optionee incurs tax liability in
connection with an Option or Stock Purchase Right, which tax liability is
subject to tax withholding under applicable tax laws, and the Optionee is
obligated to pay the Company an amount required to be withheld under applicable
tax laws, the Optionee may satisfy the withholding tax obligation by one or some
combination of the following methods: (a) by cash payment, or (b) out of
Optionee's current compensation, (c) if permitted by the Administrator, in its
discretion, by surrendering to the Company Shares that (I) in the case of Shares
previously acquired from the Company, have been owned by the Optionee for more
than six months on the date of surrender, and (ii) have a fair market value on
the date of surrender equal to or less than Optionee's marginal tax rate times
the ordinary income recognized, or (d) by electing to have the Company withhold
from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option, or the Shares to be
issued in connection with the Stock Purchase Right, if any, that number of
Shares having a fair market value equal to the amount required to be withheld. 
For this purpose, the fair market value of the Shares to be withheld shall be
determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined
(the "Tax Date").

          Any surrender by a Reporting Person of previously owned Shares to
satisfy tax withholding obligations arising upon exercise of this Option must
comply with the applicable provisions of Rule 16b–3.

          All elections by an Optionee to have Shares withheld to satisfy tax
withholding obligations shall be made in writing in a form acceptable to the
Administrator and shall be subject to the following restrictions:

 

          (a)      the election must be made on or prior to the applicable Tax
Date;

          (b)      once made, the election shall be irrevocable as to the
particular Shares of the Option or Stock Purchase Right as to which the election
is made; and

          (c)      all elections shall be subject to the consent or disapproval
of the Administrator.

          In the event the election to have Shares withheld is made by an
Optionee and the Tax Date is deferred under Section 83 of the Code because no
election is filed under Section 83(b) of the Code, the Optionee shall receive
the full number of Shares with respect to which the Option or Stock Purchase
Right is exercised but such Optionee shall be unconditionally obligated to
tender back to the Company the proper number of Shares on the Tax Date.

 13.  Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Corporate Transactions. 

          (a)  Changes in Capitalization.  Subject to any required action by the
shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
each outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right, and the number of shares of
Common Stock that have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to
which no Options or Stock Purchase Rights have yet been granted or that have
been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Option or Stock
Purchase Right, the maximum number of Shares of Common Stock for which Options
may be granted to any Employee under Section 8 of the Plan and the price per
share of Common Stock covered by each such outstanding Option or Stock Purchase
Right, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the
number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse
stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization or reclassification
of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued
shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company;
provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company
shall not be deemed to have been "effected without receipt of consideration." 
Such adjustment shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect
shall be final, binding and conclusive.  Except as expressly provided herein, no
issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities
convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment
by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares
of Common Stock subject to an Option or Stock Purchase Right.

          (b)  Corporate Transactions.  In the event of the proposed dissolution
or liquidation of the Company, the Option will terminate immediately prior to
the consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the
Administrator.  The Administrator may, in the exercise of its sole discretion in
such instances, declare that any Option shall terminate as of a date fixed by
the Administrator and give each Optionee the right to exercise his or her Option
as to all or any part of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which the
Option would not otherwise be exercisable.  In the event of a proposed sale of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the merger of the
Company with or into another corporation, the Option shall be assumed or an
equivalent option shall be substituted by such successor corporation or a parent
or subsidiary of such successor corporation, unless the Administrator
determines, in the exercise of its sole discretion and in lieu of such
assumption or substitution, that the Optionee shall have the right to exercise
the Option as to some or all of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which
the Option would not otherwise be exercisable.  If the Administrator makes an
Option exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a
merger or sale of assets, the Administrator shall notify the Optionee that the
Option shall be exercisable for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of
such notice, and the Option will terminate upon the expiration of such period.

 14.  Non–transferability of Options and Stock Purchase Rights.  Options and
Stock Purchase Rights may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of
descent or distribution; provided, however, that the Administrator may in its
discretion grant transferable Nonstatutory Stock Options pursuant to option
agreements specifying (i) the manner in which such Nonstatutory Stock Options
are transferable and (ii) that any such transfer shall be subject to the
Applicable Laws.  Options and Stock Purchase Rights may be exercised or
purchased during the lifetime of the Optionee or Stock Purchase Rights Holder
only by the Optionee, Stock Purchase Rights Holder or a transferee permitted by
this Section 14.

 15.  Time of Granting Options and Stock Purchase Rights.  The date of grant of
an Option or Stock Purchase Right shall, for all purposes, be the date on which
the Administrator makes the determination granting such Option or Stock Purchase
Right, or such other date as is determined by the Board.  Notice of the
determination shall be given to each Employee or Consultant to whom an Option or
Stock Purchase Right is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of
such grant.

 16.  Amendment and Termination of the Plan. 

          (a)  Amendment and Termination.  The Board may amend or terminate the
Plan from time to time in such respects as the Board may deem advisable;
provided that, the following revisions or amendments shall require approval of
the shareholders of the Company in the manner described in Section 20 of the
Plan:

          (i)       any increase in the number of Shares subject to the Plan,
other than an adjustment under Section 14 of the Plan;

          (ii)      any change in the designation of the class of persons
eligible to be granted Options; or

          (iii)     any change in the limitation on grants to employees as
described in Section 8 of the Plan or other changes which would require
shareholder approval to qualify options granted hereunder as performance–based
compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code.

          (b)  Shareholder Approval.  If any amendment requiring shareholder
approval under Section 16(a) of the Plan is made subsequent to the first
registration of any class of equity securities by the Company under Section 12
of the Exchange Act, such shareholder approval shall be solicited as described
in Section 20 of the Plan.

          (c)  Effect of Amendment or Termination.  Any such amendment or
termination of the Plan shall not affect Options already granted and such
Options shall remain in full force and effect as if this Plan had not been
amended or terminated, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Optionee and
the Board, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Optionee and the
Company.

 17.  Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.  Shares shall not be issued pursuant
to the exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right unless the exercise of such
Option or Stock Purchase Right and the issuance and delivery of such Shares
pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including,
without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act,
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any
Stock Exchange.  As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Company may
require the person exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the time
of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and
without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the
opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by law.

 18.  Reservation of Shares.  The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at
all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be
sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.  The inability of the
Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which
authority is deemed by the Company's counsel to be necessary to the lawful
issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any
liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which
such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

 19.  Agreements.  Options and Stock Purchase Rights shall be evidenced by
written agreements in such form as the Administrator shall approve from time to
time.

 20.  Shareholder Approval. 

          (a)      Continuance of the Plan shall be subject to approval by the
shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the date
the Plan is adopted.  Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the manner
and to the degree required under applicable federal and state law and the rules
of any stock exchange upon which the Shares are listed.

          (b)      In the event that the Company registers any class of equity
securities pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, any required approval of
the shareholders of the Company obtained after such registration shall be
solicited substantially in accordance with Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

          (c)      If any required approval by the shareholders of the Plan
itself or of any amendment thereto is solicited at any time otherwise than in
the manner described in Section 20(b) hereof, then the Company shall, at or
prior to the first annual meeting of shareholders held subsequent to the later
of (1) the first registration of any class of equity securities of the Com– pany
under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or (2) the granting of an Option hereunder
to an officer or director after such registration, do the following:

          (i)       furnish in writing to the holders entitled to vote for the
Plan substantially the same information that would be required (if proxies to be
voted with respect to approval or disapproval of the Plan or amendment were then
being solicited) by the rules and regulations in effect under Section 14(a) of
the Exchange Act at the time such information is furnished; and

          (ii)      file with, or mail for filing to, the Securities and
Exchange Commission four copies of the written information referred to in
subsection (i) hereof not later than the date on which such information is first
sent or given to shareholders.

 21.  Information to Optionees.  The Company shall provide to each Optionee,
during the period for which such Optionee has one or more Options outstanding,
copies of all annual reports and other information which are provided to all
shareholders of the Company.
