2.             Section 7 shall be deleted and replaced with the following:

7.             Withholding of Tax.

Anything in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, all option grants
required to be made by the Company hereunder shall be subject to the withholding
of such amounts as the Company reasonably may determine that it is required to
withhold pursuant to applicable federal, state, local or foreign law or
regulation.

3.             Section 9 shall be deleted and replaced with the following:

9.             Limitation of Company’s Liability.

Neither the Company, subject to its obligation to grant options as provided for
hereunder, nor any person acting on behalf of the Company shall be liable for
any act performed or the failure to perform any act with respect to this Plan,
except in the event and to the extent that there has been a judicial
determination of willful misconduct on the part of the Company or such person
with respect to this Plan.  No Participant, or his beneficiary or beneficiaries,
shall have any right, other than the right of an unsecured general creditor,
against the Company in respect of the benefits to be paid hereunder.

4.             The following Section shall be added immediately after Section 14
of the Plan:

15.           Terms of Performance Bonus Options.

Performance Bonus Options automatically granted hereunder shall:  (i) be in the
form of the form of non-qualified stock option agreement most recently approved
by the administrator of the 2001 Stock Option Plan for use thereunder; (ii) have
a grant date of the last day of the 30 consecutive trading day period for which
the applicable 30-Day Average exceeded the applicable Target Price per Share
(the “Grant Date”); (iii) have an expiration date that is 10 years from the
Grant Date; (iv) have an initial exercise price per share of Common Stock equal
to the closing price of one share of Common Stock on the Grant Date; and (v) be

If any Performance Bonus Option is granted to a Participant for achievement of a
30-Day Average in excess of a Target Price per Share set forth in Schedule I or
Schedule II, no additional Performance Bonus Option shall be made under the
applicable Schedule with respect to such Target Price per Share to such
Participant.
