     4.01 Duties of the Committee. The Plan shall be administered and
interpreted by the Committee, as appointed from time to time by the Board
pursuant to Section 4.02. The Committee shall have the authority in its absolute
discretion to adopt, amend and rescind such rules, regulations and procedures
as, in its opinion, may be advisable in the administration of the Plan,
including, without limitation, rules, regulations and procedures which (i) deal
with satisfaction of an Employee's tax withholding obligation pursuant to

ability to borrow funds for payment of the exercise or purchase price of an

being acquired. The interpretation and construction by the Committee of any
provisions of the Plan, any rule, regulation or procedure adopted by it pursuant
thereto or of any Award shall be final and binding in the absence of action by
the Board of Directors.

Committee shall be appointed by, and will serve at the pleasure of, the Board.

in Rule 16b-3(b)(3)(i) of the Exchange Act or any successor thereto. The

no event less than one time per calendar year.

thereof, to the extent not yet vested, or any Stock Appreciation Right, to the

<PAGE>

extent not yet exercised, previously granted or awarded under this Plan to an
Employee who is discharged from the employ of the Company or a Subsidiary
Company for cause, which, for purposes hereof, shall mean termination for: (1)
conviction of a felony involving the misappropriation of the Company's or any
Subsidiary's assets or a conviction of a felony which results in a substantial,
demonstrable threat to the Company's or any Subsidiary's reputation, or (ii)
gross and willful failure to perform a substantial portion of employee's duties
and responsibilities as an employee, which failure continues for more than
thirty (30) days after written notice given to employee pursuant to a two-thirds
vote of all of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company or any
Subsidiary, as the case may be, then in office, such vote to set forth in
reasonable detail the nature of such failure.

     4.04 Limitation on Liability. Neither the members of the Board nor any

or the Committee is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of anything done or not
done by him in such capacity under or with respect to the Plan, the Company
shall indemnify such member against expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the
Company and its Subsidiary Companies and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

     4.05 Compliance with Law and Regulations. All Awards granted hereunder
shall be subject to all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations
and to such approvals by any government or regulatory agency as may be required.
The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates for
shares of Common Stock prior to the completion of any registration or
qualification of or obtaining of consents or approvals with respect to such
shares under any federal or state law or any rule or regulation of any
government body, which the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to
be necessary or advisable. Moreover, no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may
be exercised if such exercise would be contrary to applicable laws and
regulations.

     4.06 Restrictions on Transfer. The Company may place a legend upon any
certificate representing shares acquired pursuant to an Award granted hereunder
noting that the transfer of such shares may be restricted by applicable laws and
regulations.

                                   ELIGIBILITY

Subsidiary Companies as may be designated from time to time by the Board or the
Committee.

                        COMMON STOCK COVERED BY THE PLAN

     6.01 Option Shares. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which
may be issued pursuant to this Plan, subject to adjustment as provided in
Article IX, shall be 553,312. None of such shares shall be the subject of more
than one Award at any time, but if an Option as to any shares is surrendered
before exercise (including surrender in connection with exercise of a Stock
Appreciation Right), or expires or terminates for any reason without having been
exercised in full, or for any other reason ceases to be exercisable, the number
of shares covered thereby shall again become available for grant under the Plan
as if no Awards had been previously granted with respect to such shares.

     6.02 Source of Shares. The shares of Common Stock issued under the Plan may
be authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares or shares purchased by the
Company on the open market or from private sources for use under the Plan.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                                DETERMINATION OF
                         AWARDS, NUMBER OF SHARES, ETC.

     The Board or the Committee shall, in its discretion, determine from time to
time which Employees will be granted Awards under the Plan, the number of shares
of Common Stock subject to each Award, whether each Option will be an Incentive
Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Option, and the exercise price of an Option. In
making all such determinations there shall be taken into account the duties,
responsibilities and performance of each respective individual, his present and
potential contributions to the growth and success of the Company, his salary and
such other factors as the Board or the Committee shall deem relevant to
accomplishing the purposes of the Plan.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                      OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

     Each Option granted hereunder shall be on the following terms and
conditions:

     8.01 Stock Option Agreement. The proper Officers of the Company and each
Optionee shall execute a Stock Option Agreement which shall set forth the total
number of shares of Common Stock to which it pertains, the exercise price,
whether it is a Non-Qualified Option or an Incentive Stock Option, and such
other terms, conditions, restrictions and privileges as the Committee in each
instance shall deem appropriate, provided they are not inconsistent with the
terms, conditions and provisions of this Plan. Each Optionee shall receive a
copy of his executed Stock Option Agreement.

     8.02 Option Exercise Price.

     (a) Incentive Stock Options. The per share price at which the subject
Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option shall
be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share
of Common Stock at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted, except as
provided in Section 8.09(b).

     (b) Non-Qualified Options. The per share price at which the subject Common
Stock may be purchased upon exercise of a Non-Qualified Option shall be no less
than the greater of (i) the par value or (ii) eight-five percent (85%) of the
Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock at the time such Non-Qualified
Option is granted.

     8.03 Vesting and Exercise of Options.

     (a) General Rules. Incentive Stock Options and Non-Qualified Options shall
become vested and exercisable at the rate, to the extent and subject to such
limitations as may be specified by the Board or the Committee. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no vesting shall occur on or after an Optionee's employment with
the Company and all Subsidiary Companies is terminated for any reason other than
his death, Disability or Retirement. In determining the number of shares of
Common Stock with respect to which Options are vested and/or exercisable,
fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole number if the fraction
is 0.5 or higher, and down if it is less.

     (b) Accelerated Vesting Upon Death, Disability or Retirement. Unless the
Board or the Committee shall specifically state otherwise at the time an Option
is granted, all Options granted under this Plan shall become vested and
exercisable in full on the date an Optionee terminates his employment with the
Company or a Subsidiary Company because of his death, Disability or Retirement.

     (c) Accelerated Vesting for Changes in Control. Notwithstanding the general
rule described in Section 8.03(a), all outstanding Options shall become
immediately vested and exercisable in the event there is an actual or threatened
change in control of the Company.


          (1) Change in Control. A "change in control of the Company" shall mean
     a change in control of a nature that would be required to be reported 

                                       28
     <PAGE> 

     in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A promulgated
     under the Exchange Act, whether or not the Company in fact is required to
     comply with Regulation 14A thereunder; provided that, without limitation,
     such a change in control shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) any
     "person" (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange
     Act), other than the Company, is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as
     defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
     securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the combined voting
     power of the Company's then outstanding securities, or (ii) during any
     period of twenty-four consecutive months during the term of an Option,
     individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board of the
     Company cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof,
     unless the election, or the nomination for election by the Company's
     stockholders, of each director who was not a director at the date of grant
     has been approved in advance by directors representing at least two-thirds
     of the directors then in office who were directors at the beginning of the
     period.

          (2) Threatened Change in Control. A "threatened change in control of
     the Company" shall mean any set of circumstances which in the opinion of
     the Board, as expressed through a resolution, poses a real, substantial and
     immediate possibility of leading to a change in control of the Company as
     defined in clause (1) above.

     8.04 Duration of Options.

     (a) General. Except as provided in Sections 8.04(c) and 8.09, each Option
or portion thereof shall be exercisable at any time on or after it vests and
becomes exercisable until the earlier of (i) ten (10) years after its date of
grant or (ii) three (3) months after the date on which the Optionee ceases to be
employed by the Company and all Subsidiary Companies, unless the Board or the
Committee in its discretion decides at the time of grant or thereafter to extend
such period of exercise from three (3) months to a period not exceeding five (5)
years. However, failure to exercise Incentive Stock Options within three months
after the date on which the Optionee's employment terminates may result in
adverse tax consequences to the Optionee.

     (b) Exception for Termination Due to Death, Disability or Retirement. If an
Optionee dies while in the employ of the Company or a Subsidiary Company or
terminates employment with the Company or a Subsidiary Company as a result of
Disability or Retirement without having fully exercised his Options, the
Optionee or the executors, administrators, legatees or distributees of his
estate shall have the right, during the twelve-month period following the
earlier of his death, Disability or Retirement, to exercise such Options to the
extent vested on the date of such death, Disability or Retirement. In no event,
however, shall any Option be exercisable more than ten (10) years from the date
it was granted.

     8.05 Nonassignability. Options shall not be transferable by an Optionee
except by will or the laws of descent or distribution, and during an Optionee's
lifetime shall be exercisable only by such Optionee or the Optionee's guardian
or legal representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any other provision
of this Plan, an Optionee who holds Non-Qualified Options may transfer such
Options to his or her spouse, lineal ascendants, lineal descendants, or to a
duly established trust for the benefit of one or more of these individuals.
Options so transferred may thereafter be transferred only to the Optionee who
originally received the grant or to an individual or trust to whom the Optionee
could have initially transferred the Option pursuant to this Section 8.05.
Options which are transferred pursuant to this Section 8.05 shall be exercisable
by the transferee according to the same terms and conditions as applied to the
Optionee.

     8.06 Manner of Exercise. Options may be exercised in part or in whole and
at one time or from time to time. The procedures for exercise shall be set forth
in the written Stock Option Agreement provided for in Section 8.01 above.


                                       29
<PAGE>


     8.07 Payment for Shares. Payment in full of the purchase price for shares
of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of any Option shall be made
to the Company upon exercise of the Option. All shares sold under the Plan shall
be fully paid and nonassessable. Payment for shares may be made by the Optionee
in cash or, at the discretion of the Board or the Committee, by delivering
shares of Common Stock (including shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an
Option) or other property equal in Fair Market Value to the purchase price of
the shares to be acquired pursuant to the Option, by withholding some of the
shares of Common Stock which are being purchased upon exercise of an Option, or
any combination of the foregoing.

     8.08 Voting and Dividend Rights. No Optionee shall have any voting or
dividend rights or other rights of a stockholder in respect of any shares of
Common Stock covered by an Option prior to the time that his name is recorded on
the Company's stockholder ledger as the holder of record of such shares acquired
pursuant to an exercise of an Option.

     8.09 Additional Terms Applicable to Incentive Stock Options. All Options
issued under the Plan as Incentive Stock Options will be subject, in addition to
the terms detailed in Sections 8.01 to 8.08 above, to those contained in this
Section 8.09.

     (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provisions contained elsewhere in this
Plan and as long as required by Section 422 of the Code, the aggregate Fair
Market Value, determined as of the time an Incentive Stock Option is granted, of
the Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable
for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year, under this Plan and
stock options that satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Code under any
other stock option plan or plans maintained by the Company (or any parent or
Subsidiary Company), shall not exceed $100,000.

     (b) Limitation on Ten Percent Stockholders. The price at which shares of
Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option granted
to an individual who, at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns,
directly or indirectly, more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock issued to stockholders of the Company or any
Subsidiary Company, shall be no less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of
the Fair Market Value of a share of the Common Stock of the Company at the time
of grant, and such Incentive Stock Option shall by its terms not be exercisable
after the earlier of the date determined under Section 8.03 or the expiration of
five (5) years from the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted.

     (c) Notice of Disposition; Withholding; Escrow. An Optionee shall
immediately notify the Company in writing of any sale, transfer, assignment or
other disposition (or action constituting a disqualifying disposition within the
meaning of Section 421 of the Code) of any shares of Common Stock acquired
through exercise of an Incentive Stock Option, within two (2) years after the
grant of such Incentive Stock Option or within one (1) year after the
acquisition of such shares, setting forth the date and manner of disposition,
the number of shares disposed of and the price at which such shares were
disposed of. The Company shall be entitled to withhold from any compensation or
other payments then or thereafter due to the Optionee such amounts as may be
necessary to satisfy any withholding requirements of federal or state law or
regulation and, further, to collect from the Optionee any additional amounts
which may be required for such purpose. The Committee may, in its discretion,
require shares of Common Stock acquired by an Optionee upon exercise of an
Incentive Stock Option to be held in an escrow arrangement for the purpose of
enabling compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.09(c).

     8.10 Stock Appreciation Rights.

     (a) General Terms and Conditions. The Board or the Committee may, but shall
not be obligated to, authorize the Company, on such terms and conditions as it
deems appropriate in each case, to grant rights to Optionees to surrender an
exercisable Option, or any portion thereof, in consideration for the payment by
the Company of an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the
shares of Common Stock subject to the Option, or portion thereof, surrendered
over the exercise price of the Option with respect to such shares (any such
authorized surrender and payment being hereinafter referred to as a "Stock
Appreciation Right"). Such payment, at the discretion of the Board or the
Committee, may be made in shares of Common Stock valued at the then Fair Market
Value thereof, or in cash, or partly in cash and partly in shares of Common
Stock.

     The terms and conditions set with respect to a Stock Appreciation Right may
include (without limitation), subject to other provisions of this Section 8.10
and the Plan, the period during which, date by which or event upon which the
Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised; the method for valuing shares of
Common Stock for purposes of this Section 8.10; a ceiling on the amount of
consideration which the Company may pay in connection with exercise and
cancellation of the Stock Appreciation Right; and arrangements for income tax
withholding. The Board or the Committee shall have complete discretion to
determine whether, when and to whom Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted.

                                       30
<PAGE>

         (b) Time Limitations. If a holder of a Stock Appreciation Right
terminates service with the Company as an Officer or Employee, the Stock
Appreciation Right may be exercised only within the period, if any, within which
the Option to which it relates may be exercised.

         (c) Effects of Exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights or Options. Upon
the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the number of shares of Common Stock
available under the Option to which it relates shall decrease by a number equal
to the number of shares for which the Stock Appreciation Right was exercised.
Upon the exercise of an Option, any related Stock Appreciation Right shall
terminate as to any number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock
Appreciation Right that exceeds the total number of shares for which the Option
remains unexercised.

         (d) Time of Grant. A Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection
with an Incentive Stock Option must be granted concurrently with the Option to
which it relates while a Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with a
Non-Qualified Option may be granted concurrently with the Option to which it
relates or at any time thereafter prior to the exercise or expiration of such
Option.

         (e) Non-Transferable. The holder of a Stock Appreciation Right may not
transfer or assign the Stock Appreciation Right otherwise than by will or in
accordance with the laws of descent and distribution, and during a holder's
lifetime a Stock Appreciation Right may be exercisable only by the holder.


                                   ARTICLE IX
                         ADJUSTMENTS FOR CAPITAL CHANGES

     The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under
this Plan, the number of shares to which any Award relates and the exercise
price per share of Common Stock under any Option shall be proportionately
adjusted for any increase or decrease in the total number of outstanding shares
of Common Stock issued subsequent to the Effective Date of this Plan resulting
from a split, subdivision or consolidation of shares or any other capital
adjustment, the payment of a stock dividend, or other increase or decrease in
such shares effected without receipt or payment of consideration by the Company.
If, upon a merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation, recapitalization
or the like of the Company, the shares of the Company's Common Stock shall be
exchanged for other securities of the Company or of another corporation, each
recipient of an Award shall be entitled, subject to the conditions herein
stated, to purchase or acquire such number of shares of Common Stock or amount
of other securities of the Company or such other corporation as were
exchangeable for the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company which such
optionees would have been entitled to purchase or acquire except for such
action, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the per share exercise
price of outstanding Options.

                                    ARTICLE X
                      AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

     The Board may, by resolution, at any time terminate or amend the Plan with
respect to any shares of Common Stock as to which Awards have not been granted,
subject to any applicable regulatory requirements and any required stockholder
approval or any stockholder approval which the Board may deem to be advisable
for any reason, such as for the purpose of obtaining or retaining any statutory
or regulatory benefits under tax, securities or other laws or satisfying any
applicable stock exchange listing requirements. The Board may not, without the
consent of the holder of an Award, alter or impair any Award previously granted
or awarded under this Plan as specifically authorized herein.

                                   ARTICLE XI
                               CONTINUATION RIGHTS

     Neither the Plan nor the grant of any Awards hereunder nor any action taken
by the Committee or the Board in connection with the Plan shall create any right
on the part of any Employee of the Company or a Subsidiary Company to continue
