attracting, retaining, motivating and rewarding officers and key employees of
the Company or its Subsidiaries to promote the creation of long-term value for
shareholders by closely aligning the interests of Participants with those of
shareholders. To achieve these objectives, the Plan provides for the granting of
Incentive Stock Options and Nonqualified Stock Options.

2. Definitions. In addition to the terms defined in Section 1 above and
elsewhere in the Plan, the following capitalized terms used in the Plan have the

entitled by will or the laws of descent and distribution to receive the benefits

the extent authorized by the Committee, a Participant may be permitted to
designate a Beneficiary, in which case the "Beneficiary" instead will be the
person, persons, trust or trusts (if any are then surviving) which have been
designated by the Participant in his or her most recent written beneficiary
designation filed with the Committee to receive the benefits specified under the
Participant's Award upon such Participant's death, except that a Participant's

perform his duties with the Company or with any Subsidiary, or (ii)

divisions, from the Company to a Subsidiary, from a Subsidiary to the Company,
or from one Subsidiary to another shall not be considered a termination of
employment; nor shall it be considered a termination of employment if an
Eligible Employee is placed on military or sick leave or such other leave of

in its sole and absolute discretion as continuing intact the employment
relationship.

which remains outstanding, including a person who is no longer an Eligible

3. Administration.

(a) Authority of the Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee,
which shall have full and final authority, in each case subject to and
consistent with the provisions of the Plan, to select Eligible Employees to
become Participants; to grant Awards; to determine the type and number of
Awards; to establish the terms, conditions, restrictions and other provisions of
Awards; to cancel or suspend Awards; to prescribe documents evidencing or
setting terms of Awards (such Award documents need not be identical for each
Participant), amendments thereto, and rules and regulations for the
administration of the Plan and amendments thereto; to construe and interpret the
Plan and Award documents and correct defects, supply omissions or reconcile
inconsistencies therein; and to make all other decisions and determinations as
the Committee may deem necessary or advisable for the administration of the
Plan. Decisions of the Committee with respect to the administration and
interpretation of the Plan shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon all
persons interested in the Plan, including Participants, Beneficiaries, and other
persons claiming rights from or through a Participant, and shareholders of the
Company.

(b) Manner of Exercise of Committee Authority. The Committee may delegate to
officers or managers of the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate, or
committees thereof, the authority, subject to such terms as the Committee shall
determine, to perform such functions, including administrative functions, as the
Committee may determine, to the extent that such delegation will not (i) result
in the loss of an exemption under Rule 16b-3(d) for Awards granted to
Participants subject to Section 16 of the Act in respect of the Company, (ii)
cause Awards intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" under
Section 162(m) of the Code to fail to so qualify, and (iii) violate the
independence requirements of the Market on which the Stock is then listed for
trading.

(c) Limitation of Liability. The Committee and each member thereof, and any
person acting pursuant to authority delegated by the Committee, shall be
entitled, in good faith, to rely or act upon any report or other information
furnished by any executive officer, other officer or employee of the Company or
a Subsidiary or affiliate, the Company's independent auditors, consultants or
any other agents assisting in the administration of the Plan. Members of the
Committee, any person acting pursuant to authority delegated by the Committee,
and any officer or employee of the Company or a Subsidiary or affiliate acting
at the direction or on behalf of the Committee or a delegee shall not be
personally liable for any action or determination taken or made in good faith
with respect to the Plan, and shall, to the extent permitted by law, be fully
indemnified and protected by the Company with respect to any such action or
determination.

4. Stock Subject to the Plan.

(a) Overall Number of Shares Available for Delivery. Subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 10(c), the total number of shares of Stock reserved and
available for delivery in connection with Awards under the Plan shall be 300,000
shares; provided, however, that the total number of shares which may be issued
and delivered in connection with Awards that are granted as ISOs is limited to
300,000 shares, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 10(c). Any shares
of Stock delivered under the Plan shall consist of authorized and unissued
shares or treasury shares, or partly out of each, as shall be determined by the
Board.

(b) Share Counting Rules. Shares of Stock subject to an Award under the Plan
that is canceled, expired, forfeited, settled in cash or otherwise terminated
without a delivery of shares to the Participant will again be available for
Awards. If any unissued shares of Stock are retained by the Company upon
exercise of an Award in order to satisfy the exercise price for such Award or
any withholding or other taxes due with respect to such Award, such retained
shares of Stock subject to such Award shall become available for future issuance
under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). Shares of Stock that actually
have been issued under the Plan pursuant to an Award shall not be returned to
the Plan and shall not become available for future issuance under the Plan. This
Section 4(b) shall apply to the number of shares of Stock reserved and available
for ISOs only to the extent consistent with applicable regulations relating to
ISOs under the Code.

5. Participants.

(a) Eligibility. Participation in the Plan shall be open to all Eligible
Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries. No officer or employee of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall have a claim to be granted any Award
under the Plan. Nothing in the Plan or in any Award shall confer any right on a
Participant to continue as an officer or employee of the Company or shall
interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate such employment
or officer service or to reduce the compensation or responsibilities of a
Participant at any time. By accepting any Award under the Plan, each Participant
and each person claiming under or through him or her shall be conclusively
deemed to have indicated his or her acceptance and ratification of, and consent
to, any action taken under the Plan by the Company, its Subsidiaries, the
Committee, or the Board, as the case may be.

Determinations made by the Committee, or the Board, as the case may be, under
the Plan need not be uniform and may be made selectively among eligible
individuals under the Plan, whether or not such individuals are similarly
situated. An Award of any type made hereunder in any one year to an Eligible
Employee shall neither guarantee nor preclude a further grant of that or any
other type to such Eligible Employee in that year or subsequent years.

(b) Per-Person Award Limitations. In each calendar year during any part of which
the Plan is in effect, an Eligible Employee may be granted Awards intended to
qualify as "performance-based compensation" under Section 162(m) of the Code
under Section 6 up to his or her Annual Limit. Subject to Section 4(a), a
Participant's Annual Limit, in any year during any part of which the Participant
is then eligible under the Plan, shall equal 30,000 shares.

6. Specific Terms of Awards.

(a) General. Awards may be granted on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Section 6. In addition, the Committee may impose on any Award or the exercise
thereof, at the date of grant or thereafter (subject to Section 10(f)), such
additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the
Plan, as the Committee shall determine, including terms requiring forfeiture of
Awards in the event of termination of employment or service by the Participant
and terms permitting a Participant to make elections relating to his or her
Award. The Committee shall retain full power and discretion with respect to any
term or condition of an Award that is not mandatory under the Plan. The
Committee shall require the payment of lawful consideration for an Award to the
extent necessary to satisfy applicable law, and may otherwise require payment of
consideration for an Award except as limited by the Plan. In any and all events,
it is intended that all Awards granted hereunder will be compliant with (or
exempt from) the terms and conditions of Section 409A of the Code, to the extent
applicable, and the Awards shall be interpreted and administered accordingly.

(b) Options. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants on the
following terms and conditions:

(i) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Stock purchasable under an
Option (including both ISOs and NQSOs) shall be determined by the Committee;
provided, however, that such exercise price with respect to all Options shall in
no event be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of
grant of such Option.

(ii) Option Term; Time and Method of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the
term of each Option, provided that in no event shall the term of any Option
exceed a period of ten years from the date of grant. The Committee shall
determine the time or times at which or the circumstances under which an Option
may be exercised in whole or in part, the methods by which such exercise price
may be paid or deemed to be paid and the form of such payment, including,
without limitation, cash, Stock, or other Awards granted under other plans of
the Company or any Subsidiary, and the methods by or forms in which Stock will
be delivered or deemed to be delivered in satisfaction of Options to
Participants. The Award shall specify the manner and terms of exercise. To the
extent the Option exercise price may be paid in Stock as provided above, Stock
delivered by the Participant may be (i) Stock which was received by the
Participant upon exercise of one or more ISOs, but only if such Stock has been
held by the Participant for at least the greater of (a) two years from the date
the ISOs were granted or (b) one year after the transfer of Stock to the
Participant, or (ii) Stock which was received by the Participant upon exercise
of one or more NQSOs, but only if such Stock has been held by the Participant
for at least six months.

(iii) ISOs. The terms of any ISO granted under the Plan shall comply in all
respects with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code, including but not
limited to the requirement that no ISO shall be granted more than ten years
after the Effective Date. Each Participant may be granted ISOs only to the
extent that, in the aggregate under the Plan and all incentive stock option
plans of the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate, such ISOs (absent
acceleration of exercisability) do not become exercisable for the first time by
such Participant during any calendar year in a manner which would entitle the
Participant to purchase more than $100,000 in Fair Market Value of Stock in that
year (with such Fair Market Value determined as of the time of grant of the
ISO). Any Options granted to a Participant in excess of such amount will be
granted as NQSOs. Any ISOs granted to a Participant who is a 10% owner of the
Company must have an exercise price of at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of
the Stock at the date of grant, and must expire no later than five years from
the date of grant.

(iv) Termination of Employment. At such time as a Participant ceases to be an
employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any reason, all
outstanding, unexercised, Stock Options granted to such Participant shall
terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation Committee may provide
in its discretion, either at the time an Stock Option is granted or thereafter,
that the Stock Option may be exercised after the periods provided for in this
Section 6(b)(iv), but in no event beyond the term of the Stock Option.

(v) Substitution and Modification. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the
Committee may modify outstanding Options or accept the surrender of outstanding
Options (to the extent not exercised) and grant new Options in substitution for
them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no modification of an Option shall alter or
impair any rights or obligations under the Option without the Participant's
consent, except as provided for in this Plan or any Award agreement. In
addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment or modification of an
Option shall cause an Option issued under the Plan to be repriced or to lower
the exercise price of a previously granted Option.

7. Exemptions from Section 16(b) Liability. With respect to a Participant who is
then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Act in
respect of the Company, the Committee shall implement transactions under the
Plan and administer the Plan in a manner that will ensure that each transaction
with respect to such a Participant is exempt from liability under Rule 16b-3 or
otherwise not subject to liability under Section 16(b), except that this
provision shall not limit sales by such a Participant, and such a Participant
may engage in other non-exempt transactions under the Plan. The Committee may
authorize the Company to repurchase any Award or shares of Stock deliverable or
delivered in connection with any Award in order to avoid a Participant who is
subject to Section 16 of the Act incurring liability under Section 16(b). Unless
otherwise specified by the Participant, securities acquired under the Plan which
are disposed of by a Participant shall be deemed to be disposed of in the order
acquired by the Participant.

8. Change in Control.

(a) Effect of Change in Control on Awards. Unless otherwise provided by the
Committee in the Award document, in the event of a Change in Control all
non-forfeited Options carrying a right to exercise that was not previously
exercisable and vested shall become fully exercisable and vested as of the time
of the Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in
this Plan, at or immediately prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control, the
Company may give a Participant written notice thereof requiring such Participant
either (i) to exercise some or all of his or her Options on or prior to the date
of the Change in Control, including all installments, or (ii) to surrender some
or all of such Options in return for a cash payment equal to the excess, if any,
of the Fair Market Value of the shares subject to the Option surrendered over
the aggregate exercise price for such shares under the Option. Any Options which
the Company requires to be exercised and which shall not have been exercised in
accordance with the provisions of the Plan by such date shall automatically
lapse irrevocably and the Participant shall have no further rights with respect
to such Options.

(b) Definition of Change in Control. Unless otherwise determined by the Board,
the term Change in Control shall mean any of the following events occurring
after the Effective Date:

(i) if any "person" or "group" as those terms are used in Sections 13(d) and
14(d) of the Act or any successors thereto, other than an Exempt Person, is or
becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act or any
successor thereto), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company
representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then
outstanding securities; or

(ii) during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the
beginning of such period constitute the Board and any new directors whose
election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders
was approved by at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who
either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election was
previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof;
or

(iii) consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other
corporation, other than a merger or consolidation (A) which would result in all
or a portion of the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately
prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by
being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 50% of
the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such
surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation or
(B) by which the corporate existence of the Company is not affected and
following which the Company's chief executive officer and directors retain their
positions with the Company (and constitute at least a majority of the Board); or

(iv) consummation of a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or a sale or
disposition by the Company of all or substantially all the Company's assets,
other than a sale to an Exempt Person.

(v) for purposes of this Section 8, "Exempt Person" means (i) Mariano
Costamagna, (ii) any person, entity or group under the control of Mr.
Costamagna, or (iii) any employee benefit plan of the Company or a trustee or
other administrator or fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit
plan of the Company.

9. Additional Award Forfeiture Provisions. In addition to any forfeiture or
reimbursement conditions the Committee may impose upon an Award, a Participant
may be required to forfeit an Award, or reimburse the Company for the value of a
prior Award, by virtue of the requirement of Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 (or by virtue of any other applicable statutory or regulatory
requirement or a policy adopted by the Company pursuant to The Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated
thereunder prior to the issuance of the Award), but only to the extent that such
forfeiture or reimbursement is required by such statutory or regulatory
provision or Company policy. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in
the event of a forfeiture of an Award with respect to which a Participant paid
cash consideration, the Participant shall be repaid the amount of such cash
consideration.

10. General Provisions.

(a) Compliance with Legal and Other Requirements. The Company may, to the extent
deemed necessary or advisable by the Committee, postpone the issuance or
delivery of Stock until completion of such registration or qualification of such
Stock or other required action under any federal or state law, rule or
regulation, listing or other required action with respect to any stock exchange
or automated quotation system upon which the Stock or other securities of the
Company are listed or quoted, or compliance with any other obligation of the
Company, as the Committee may consider appropriate, and may require any
Participant to make such representations, furnish such information and comply
with or be subject to such other conditions as it may consider appropriate in
connection with the issuance or delivery of Stock or payment of other benefits
in compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations, listing
requirements, or other obligations.

(b) Beneficiaries. No Award of a Participant under the Plan shall be pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or subject to any lien, obligation or
liability of such Participant to any party (other than the Company or a
Subsidiary or affiliate thereof), or assigned or transferred by such Participant
otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or to a
Beneficiary upon the death of a Participant, and such Awards that may be
exercisable shall be exercised during the lifetime of the Participant only by
the Participant or his or her guardian or legal representative. A Beneficiary,
or other person claiming any rights under the Plan from or through any
Participant shall be subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any
Award document applicable to such Participant, except as otherwise determined by
the Committee, and to any additional terms and conditions deemed necessary or
appropriate by the Committee.

(c) Adjustments. In the event that any large, special and non-recurring dividend
or other distribution (whether in the form of cash or property other than
Stock), recapitalization, forward or reverse split, stock dividend,
reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, share
exchange, liquidation, dissolution or other similar corporate transaction or
event affects the Stock such that an adjustment is determined by the Committee
to be appropriate under the Plan, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it
may deem equitable, adjust any or all of (i) the number and kind of shares of
Stock which may be delivered in connection with Awards granted thereafter, (ii)
the number and kind of shares of Stock by which annual per-person Award
limitations are measured under Section 5, (iii) the number and kind of shares of
Stock subject to or deliverable in respect of outstanding Awards and (iv) the
exercise price relating to any Award or, if deemed appropriate, the Committee
may make provision for a payment of cash to the holder of an outstanding Option.

(d) Tax Provisions.

(i) Withholding. The Company and any Subsidiary are authorized to withhold from
any Award granted, any payment relating to an Award under the Plan, including
from a distribution of Stock, or any payroll or other payment to a Participant,
amounts of withholding and other taxes due or potentially payable in connection
with any transaction involving an Award, and to take such other action as the
Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company and Participants to satisfy
obligations for the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations
relating to any Award. This authority shall include authority to withhold or
receive Stock or other property and to make cash payments in respect thereof in
satisfaction of a Participant's withholding obligations, either on a mandatory
or elective basis in the discretion of the Committee. Other provisions of the
Plan notwithstanding, only the minimum amount of Stock deliverable in connection
with an Award necessary to satisfy statutory withholding requirements will be
withheld.

(ii) Requirement of Notification Upon Disqualifying Disposition Under Section
421(b) of the Code. If any Participant shall make any disposition of shares of
Stock delivered pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options under the
circumstances described in Section 421(b) of the Code (relating to certain
disqualifying dispositions), such Participant shall notify the Company of such
disposition within ten days thereof.

(iii) Compliance with Section 162(m) of the Code. It is the intent of the
Company that Options granted to Covered Employees shall constitute qualified
"performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the
Code and regulations thereunder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee at
the time of allocation of an Award. Accordingly, the definition of Covered
Employee shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with Section 162(m) of the
Code and regulations thereunder. The foregoing notwithstanding, because the
Committee cannot determine with certainty whether a given Participant will be a
Covered Employee with respect to a fiscal year that has not yet been completed,
the term Covered Employee as used herein shall mean only a person designated by
the Committee as likely to be a Covered Employee with respect to a specified
fiscal year.

(iv) Section 409A Compliance. The Plan is intended to be administered and
interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements, where applicable, of
Section 409A of the Code. Where reasonably possible and practicable, the Plan
shall be administered in a manner to avoid the imposition on Participants of
immediate tax recognition and additional taxes pursuant to such Section 409A.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor the Committee shall have
any liability to any person in the event such Section 409A applies to any such
Award in a manner that results in adverse tax consequences for the Participant
or any of his or her beneficiaries or transferees.

(e) Plan Effective Date and Termination. The Plan shall become effective if, and
at such time as, the shareholders of the Company have approved it by the
affirmative votes of the holders of a majority of the voting securities of the
Company cast in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the subject matter at
a duly held meeting of shareholders at which a quorum is present. Unless earlier
terminated by action of the Board of Directors, the Plan will remain in effect
for a term of ten (10) years from the date of adoption or until the Company has
no further rights or obligations under the Plan with respect to outstanding
Awards under the Plan, except that no ISOs may be granted hereunder more than
ten years following the date of its adoption or approval by the shareholders of
the Company, whichever occurs first. Subject to applicable law, Awards may be
granted under the Plan after this Plan is adopted by the Board but prior to the
Effective Date provided that all such Awards shall be null and void of this Plan
is not approved by the requisite shareholder vote at the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders occuring following adoption of the Plan by the Board.

(f) Changes to the Plan. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or
the Committee's authority to grant Awards under the Plan without the consent of
shareholders or Participants; provided, however, that any amendment to the Plan
shall be submitted to the Company's shareholders for approval not later than the
earliest annual meeting for which the record date is after the date of such
Board action if such shareholder approval is required by any federal or state
law or regulation or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation
system on which the Stock may then be listed or quoted, and the Board may
otherwise, in its discretion, determine to submit other amendments to the Plan
to shareholders for approval and provided further, that, without the consent of
an affected Participant, no such Board action may materially and adversely
affect the rights of such Participant under any outstanding Award, unless such
action is deemed necessary in order to achieve compliance with tax or securities
laws or regulations.

(g) Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board
nor its submission to the shareholders of the Company for approval shall be
construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board or a committee
thereof to adopt such other incentive arrangements, apart from the Plan, as it
may deem desirable, including incentive arrangements and awards which do not
qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code, and such other arrangements may be
either applicable generally or only in specific cases.

(h) Governing Law. The validity, construction, and effect of the Plan, any rules
and regulations relating to the Plan and any Award document shall be determined
in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of laws, and applicable provisions of federal law.

(i) Limitation on Rights Conferred under the Plan. Neither the Plan nor any
action taken hereunder shall be construed as (i) giving any Eligible Employee or
Participant the right to continue as an Eligible Employee or Participant or in
the employ or service of the Company or a Subsidiary or affiliate, (ii)
interfering in any way with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary or
affiliate to terminate any Eligible Employee 's or Participant's employment or
service at any time, (iii) giving an Eligible Employee or Participant any claim
to be granted any Award under the Plan or to be treated uniformly with other
Participants and employees, or (iv) conferring on a Participant any of the
rights of a shareholder of the Company unless and until an Option is duly
exercised. Except as expressly provided in the Plan and an Award document,
neither the Plan nor any Award document shall confer on any person other than
the Company and the Participant any rights or remedies thereunder.

(j) Severability; Entire Agreement. If any of the provisions of this Plan or any
Award document is finally held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable (whether
in whole or in part), such provision shall be deemed modified to the extent, but
only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, and the
remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby; provided, however, if any of
such provisions is finally held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable because
it exceeds the maximum scope determined to be acceptable to permit such
provision to be enforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be modified to
the minimum extent necessary to modify such scope in order to make such
provision enforceable hereunder. The Plan and any Award documents contain the
entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and
supersede all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements,
communications, representations and warranties between them, whether written or
oral with respect to the subject matter thereof.
