     2. EXERCISE PERIOD.


          a. VESTING SCHEDULE. The Option shall become exercisable upon the

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no option shall be exercisable until such date as

          b. EXPIRATION. The Option shall expire on the earlier of: (a) the

     3. TERMINATION.


          a. TERMINATION FOR ANY REASON EXCEPT DEATH OR DISABILITY. If
Participant is Terminated for any reason, except death or Disability, the
Option, to the extent (and only to the extent) that it would have been
exercisable by Participant on the date of Termination, may be exercised by
Participant no later than ninety (90) days after the date of Termination, but in
any event no later than the Expiration Date.

          b. TERMINATION BECAUSE OF DEATH OR DISABILITY. If Participant is
Terminated because of death or Disability of Participant, any Option that is an
ISO, to the extent that it is exercisable by Participant on the date of
Termination, may be exercised by Participant (or Participant's legal
representative) no later than one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date
of Termination, but in any event no later than the Expiration Date.

          c. NO OBLIGATION TO EMPLOY. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement

relationship with, the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, or
limit in any way the right of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the
Company to terminate Participant's employment or other relationship at any time,
with or without cause.

     4. MANNER OF EXERCISE.

          a. STOCK OPTION EXERCISE AGREEMENT. To exercise this Option,
Participant (or in the case of exercise after Participant's death, Participant's
executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must deliver to
the Company an executed stock Option exercise Agreement in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit A, or in such other form as may be approved by the Company
from time to time (the "Exercise Agreement"), which shall set forth, inter alia,
Participant's election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares being
purchased, any restrictions imposed on the Shares and any representations,
warranties and Agreements regarding Participant's investment intent and access
to information as may be required by the Company to comply with applicable
securities laws. If someone other than Participant exercises the Option, then
such person must submit documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company that
such person has the right to exercise the Option.

          b. LIMITATIONS ON EXERCISE. The Option may not be exercised unless
such exercise is in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities
laws, as they are in effect on the date of exercise. The Option may not be
exercised as to fewer than One Hundred (100) Shares unless it is exercised as to
all Shares as to which the Option is then exercisable.

payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares being purchased in cash (by check),

               iv. provided that a public market for the Company's stock exists
          and subject to the ability of the Participant to sell Shares in
          compliance with applicable securities laws:

                    (1) through a "same day sale" commitment from the
               Participant and a broker-dealer that is a member of the National
               Association of Securities Dealers (an "NASD Dealer") whereby the
               Participant irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to sell
               a portion of the Shares so purchased in order to pay the Exercise
               Price, and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon
               receipt of such Shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to
               the Company; or

                    (2) through a "margin" commitment from the Participant and
               an NASD Dealer whereby Participant irrevocably elects to exercise
               the Option and to pledge the Shares so purchased to the NASD
               Dealer in a margin account as security for a loan from the NASD
               Dealer in the amount of the Exercise Price, and whereby the NASD
               Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward
               the Exercise Price directly to the Company; or

               v. by any combination of the foregoing.

          d. TAX WITHHOLDING. Prior to the issuance of the Shares upon exercise
