                              TERMS AND CONDITIONS

         References herein to "you" or "your" shall refer to Optionee.

         1. Options. The Company hereby grants to Optionee the right and option
to purchase up to the number of shares of Common Stock specified above, at the
Exercise Price specified above, subject to the conditions and limitations set
forth herein (the "Options").

         2. Vesting Dates. The Options shall not be exercisable until on or
after their respective Vesting Dates. The Options shall partially vest in
periodic installments on the Vesting Dates; provided, as a condition of vesting,
that the Optionee shall have been in the Continuous Service of the Company at
all times after the Date of Grant through and including each such Vesting Date.

         3. Number of Shares and Exercise Price. The number of shares, which
Optionee may purchase upon exercise of the Option (the "Option Shares"), and the
Exercise Price may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization Adjustments.

         4. Method of Payment. Payment of the Exercise Price is due in full upon
exercise of all or any part of the Options. Optionee may elect to make payment
of the Exercise Price in cash or by check or in any other manner permitted by
the Company. As soon as practicable after receipt by the Company of such notice
and of payment in full of the option price of all the shares of Common Stock
with respect to which the Option has been exercised, a certificate or
certificates representing such shares of Common Stock having been paid for shall
be issued in the name of the Optionee, or, if the Optionee shall so request in
the notice exercising the Option, in the name of the Optionee and another person
jointly, with right of survivorship, and shall be delivered to the Optionee. If
this Option is not exercised with respect to all shares of Common Stock subject
hereto, Optionee shall be entitled to receive a similar Option of like tenor
covering the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which this Option
shall not have been exercised.

         5. Whole Shares. The Options may only be exercised for whole shares of
Common Stock. Fractional shares of Common Stock shall not be issued.

         6. Securities Law Compliance; Limitation of Exercise; Extension of
Exercise Period. If the Board of Directors of the Company, in its sole
discretion, shall determine that it is necessary or desirable to list, register,
or qualify the Option Shares under any state or federal law, these Options may
not be exercised, in whole or part, until such listing, registration, or
qualification shall have been obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to
the Board of Directors. If no registration statement is effective on the date of
exercise of these Options, the Option Shares will not be issued unless and until
there is evidence available to the Company, including representations from the
Optionee that such shares are being acquired for investment and not for resale,
on which the Company may reasonably rely as to the availability of an exemption
from registration in issuing such shares. The Company shall utilize its best
efforts to comply with the requirements of each regulatory commission or agency
having jurisdiction in order to issue and sell the shares to satisfy these
Options. Such compliance will be a condition precedent to the right to exercise
these Options. The inability of the Company to effect such compliance with any
such regulatory commission or agency that counsel for the Company deems
necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of the shares to satisfy these
Options shall relieve the Company from any liability for failure to issue and
sell the shares to satisfy these Options for such time as such compliance is not
effectuated.

                                       2
<PAGE>

         If at any time you deliver a Notice of Exercise in accordance with
paragraph 8 below and the Options are not exercisable solely because of the
condition set forth in this paragraph 6, the Exercise Period (as defined in
paragraph 7) shall be correspondingly extended until the Company determines that
the Options can be exercised in compliance with this paragraph 6, at which point
the Optionee shall have the remainder of the applicable Exercise Period, as
delineated in paragraph 7, within which to exercise such Options.

         If the issuance of the Option Shares is not covered by an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act, in order to enforce the
restrictions imposed upon the Option Shares, the Company shall cause a legend or
legends to be placed upon any certificates representing such Option Shares,
which legend or legends shall be substantially as follows:

         The shares represented hereby have not been registered under the
         Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), nor under any
         applicable state securities laws and may not be transferred without
         registration under the Act and under such state securities laws, or
         pursuant to an available exemption from the Act and such laws.

         7. Exercise Period. The vested portions of Options shall be exercisable
during the period (the "Exercise Period") commencing upon their respective
Vesting Dates and terminating upon the earliest of the following dates:

                  (a) on the date of the termination of your Continuous Service
         at any time "for cause" as defined in your separate written employment
         agreement, if any, or in the absence of a written employment agreement,
         by a good faith determination by the Board of Directors that you (i)
         have been grossly negligent in the performance of your duties; (ii)
         have engaged in material willful or gross misconduct in the performance
         of your duties; (iii) have committed an act of personal dishonesty or
         breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit in connection with
         your employment by the Company; or (iv) have committed, as determined
         by the Board of Directors of the Company, or have been convicted of
         fraud, embezzlement, theft, or dishonesty or other criminal conduct,
         unless the board waives the provisions of this subparagraph;

                  (b) three months after the termination of your Continuous
         Service for any other reason;

                  (c) twelve months after the termination of your Continuous
         Service due to disability;

                  (d) eighteen months after your death if you die either during
         your Continuous Service or within three months after your Continuous
         Service terminates; or

                  (e) the Expiration Date.

         8. Exercise.


                  (a) You may exercise the vested portion of the Options during
         their Exercise Period by delivering a Notice of Exercise (in a form
         designated by the Company), together with the Exercise Price to the
         Secretary of the Company, or to such other person as the Company may
         designate, during regular business hours, together with such additional
         documents as the Company may then require.

                  (b) By exercising the Options you agree that, as a condition
         to any exercise of the Options, the Company may require you to enter an
         arrangement providing for the payment by

                                       3
<PAGE>

         you to the Company of any tax withholding obligation of the Company
         arising by reason of: (i) the exercise of the Options; (ii) the lapse
         of any substantial risk of forfeiture to which the Option Shares are
         subject at the time of exercise; or (iii) the disposition of Option
         Shares acquired upon such exercise.

                  (c) By exercising the Options you (and any other person or
         entity to which any Option Shares are transferred or assigned) agree
         that the Company (or a representative of the underwriters) may, in
         connection with the first underwritten registration of the offering of
         any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, require that
         you not sell, dispose of, transfer, make any short sale of, grant any
         option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar
         transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any shares of
         Common Stock or other securities of the Company, including Option
         Shares or other securities held by you, for a period of time specified
         by the underwriter(s) (not to exceed one hundred eighty days) following
         the effective date of the registration statement of the Company filed
         under the Securities Act. The Option Shares shall be subject to the
         foregoing restrictions and any assignee, transferee, or other holder of
         the Option Shares shall be bound by the foregoing provisions. You
         further agree to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be
         reasonably requested by the Company and/or the underwriter(s) which are
         consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further
         effect thereto. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company
         may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to your Option
         Shares or other securities until the end of such period. Further, you
         hereby constitute and appoint the Company and any of its officers as
         your agent and attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to act
         in your place and in your stead, and to make, execute, and deliver any
         agreements or instruments consistent with the foregoing. The foregoing
         power of attorney is, and shall be, irrevocable, and you agree that the
         foregoing power of attorney is coupled with the Company's interest in
         and to the Option Shares.

                  (d) The Option Shares may not be sold, transferred or
         assigned, pledged or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, except in
         compliance with this Agreement, including paragraph 10 below.

                  (e) In order to enforce the restrictions imposed upon the
         Option Shares, the Company shall cause a legend or legends to be placed
         upon any certificates representing such Option Shares, which legend or
         legends shall be substantially as follows:

                  The shares represented hereby are subject to restrictions on
                  transferability and related repurchase rights under the
                  applicable Stock Option Agreements or other agreements
                  executed in connection therewith, copies of which are
                  available at the principal business offices of the Company.

                  (f) Upon issuance, the Option Shares shall be considered to be
         fully-paid, non-assessable, issued, and outstanding shares of the
         Company, and Optionee shall be entitled to vote the Option Shares and
         receive all cash dividends and other distributions with respect
         thereto.

         9. Transferability. Options are exercisable only (a) by you during your
life, (b) by the executors, administrators, or beneficiaries of your estate, (c)
by a family member (as defined herein) who receives the Options as a gift or
pursuant to a domestic relations order, or (d) by a transferee for value. For
purposes of this paragraph, a family member includes any child, stepchild,
grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling,
niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law,
brother-in-law, sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person
sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which these
persons have more than

                                       4
<PAGE>

50% of the beneficial interests, a foundation in which these persons (or the
Optionee) control the management of assets, and other entity in which these
persons (or the employee) own more than 50% of the voting interests. In the
event of any alienation, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, or other transfer of
this Option or any right hereunder in violation of the terms hereof or in the
event of any levy, attachment, execution, or similar process, this Option and
all rights granted hereunder shall be immediately null and void.

         10. Right of First Refusal. The Company shall have a Right of First
Refusal, prior to the Listing Date, as to all or any part of the Option Shares
on the following terms and conditions:

                  (a) Should you propose to sell or transfer any Option Shares
         in one or more related transactions, you shall promptly deliver a
         written notice (the "Transfer Notice") to the Company prior to the
         closing of such sale or transfer. The Transfer Notice shall describe in
         reasonable detail the proposed sale or transfer including, without
         limitation, the number of shares to be sold or transferred, the nature
         of such sale or transfer, the consideration to be paid, and the name
         and address of each prospective purchaser or transferee. Upon the
         request of the Company, you shall promptly furnish to the Company such
         other information as may be reasonably requested to establish that the
         offer and prospective purchaser or transferee is bona fide.

                  (b) For thirty days following the receipt of the Transfer
         Notice, the Company shall have the option to purchase all or any
         portion of the shares specified in the Transfer Notice at the price and
         upon the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice. In the event the
         Company does not elect to acquire the shares proposed for sale in the
         Transfer Notice, the Secretary of the Company shall give written notice
         thereof to you (the "Refusal Notice"). If the Company fails or refuses
         to furnish a Refusal Notice within such thirty-day period, the Company
         shall be deemed to have refused its right and option to purchase the
         shares specified in the Transfer Notice.

                  (c) In the event the Company elects to acquire the shares as
         specified in the Transfer Notice, the Secretary of the Company shall so
         notify you (the "Acceptance Notice"), and settlement thereof shall be
         made in cash within thirty days from the date of the Acceptance Notice.
         At such time, you shall deliver to the Company the certificates
         representing the shares to be purchased, each certificate to be
         properly endorsed for transfer.

                  (d) Should the purchase price specified in the Transfer Notice
         be payable in property other than cash or evidence of indebtedness, the
         Company shall have the right to pay the purchase price in the form of
         cash equal in amount to the value of such property. If you and the
         Company cannot agree on such cash value within ten days after your
         receipt of the Acceptance Notice, the valuation shall be made by an
         appraiser of recognized standing selected by you and the Company (or
         its assignees) or, if you cannot agree on an appraiser within twenty
         days after your receipt of the Acceptance Notice, each shall select an
         appraiser of recognized standing and the two appraisers shall designate
         a third appraiser of recognized standing, whose appraisal shall be
         determinative of such value. You and the Company shall equally share
         the cost of such appraisal. The closing shall then be held on the fifth
         business day after such cash valuation has been made.

                  (e) The exercise or non-exercise of the rights of the Company
         hereunder to elect to exercise the Right of First Refusal in one or
         more sales or transfers of the shares shall not adversely affect the
         Company's rights to exercise the Right of First Refusal in subsequent
         sales or transfers of Option Shares.

                                       5
<PAGE>

                  (f) The Company's Right of First Refusal shall terminate upon
         the effective date of a registration statement pertaining to the
         Company's initial registered firm commitment underwritten public
         offering.

                  (g) If, from time to time, there is any change in the
         character or amount of any of the outstanding shares of the Common
         Stock of the Company, then in such event any and all new, substituted,
         or additional shares to which you are entitled by reason of your
         ownership of the Option Shares shall be immediately subject to the
         Right of First Refusal with the same force and effect as the Option
         Shares subject to the Right of First Refusal immediately before such
         event.

         11. Right of Repurchase. To the extent provided in the Company's
bylaws, as amended from time to time, or as noted in paragraph 10 above, the
Company shall have the right to repurchase all or any part of the Option Shares.

         12. Change in Control. Following a "Change in Control" (as defined
herein), if the Optionee's Continuous Service is terminated for any reason other
than "for cause" as defined in subparagraph 7(a) above, the Optionee shall have
the right to demand payment after the date of the termination of Optionee's
Continuous Service. Such demand shall be in writing to the Company within ninety
days after the occurrence of such termination, in which case the Company shall
pay, within ten days after receipt of such notice, the Optionee the full amount
due against cancellation of the Options. The amount due shall be defined as a
cash amount equal to the number of shares of Common Stock, excluding any portion
of these Options previously exercised, terminated, canceled, or expired, but
disregarding whether such Options are then exercisable pursuant to paragraph 2
or any other provision respecting any vesting schedule, times the amount by
which the "Fair Market Value" (as defined herein) exceeds the Exercise Price of
such Options.

                  (a) A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if
         (i) the Company shall be merged or consolidated into another
         corporation and as a result of such merger or consolidation less than
         seventy-five percent (75%) of the outstanding voting securities of the
         surviving or resulting corporation shall be owned in the aggregate by
         the former shareholders of the Company as the same shall have existed
         prior to such merger or consolidation, (ii) the Company shall sell,
         lease, exchange, or otherwise transfer (in one transaction or a series
         of transactions) all or substantially all of the assets of the Company
         to an entity that is not a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company or to
         a group of associated purchasers, (iii) a person, within the meaning of
         Section 3(a)(9) or Section 13(d)(3) (as in effect on the date hereof)
         of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
         Act"), shall become the beneficial owner (within the meaning of rule
         13d-3 of the Exchange Act as in effect on the date hereof) of fifty
         percent (50%) or more of the outstanding voting securities of the
         Company, or (iv) if as a result of a merger, consolidation, sale of all
         or substantially all of the Company's assets, a contested election, or
         any combination of the foregoing, the persons who were directors of the
         Company immediately prior thereto shall cease to constitute a majority
         of the Board of Directors of the Company or any successor to the
         Company.

                  (b) "Fair Market Value" shall be the closing price for such
         stock on the close of business on the day last preceding the occurrence
         of the Change of Control as quoted on a registered national securities
         exchange or, if not listed on such an exchange, the Nasdaq Stock Market
         or, if not listed on such an exchange or included on the Nasdaq Stock
         Market, the closing price (or, if no closing price is available from
         sources deemed reliable by the Company, the closing bid quotation) for
         such stock as determined by the Company through any other reliable
         means of determination available on the close of business on the day
         last preceding the date of such Change of Control.

                                       6

         13. Options Not a Service Contract. The Options are not an employment,
service, or consulting contract, and nothing in the Options shall be deemed to
create in any way whatsoever any right or obligation on your part to continue in
the employ of the Company or an affiliate, or of the Company or an affiliate to
continue your employment. In addition, nothing in the Options shall obligate the
Company or an affiliate, their respective shareholders, boards of directors,
officers, or employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a
director or consultant for the Company or an affiliate.

         14. Withholding Obligations.

                  (a) At the time the Options are exercised, in whole or in
         part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby
         authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to
         you, and otherwise agree to make adequate provision for (including by
         means of a "cashless exercise" pursuant to a program developed under
         Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board to the extent
         permitted by the Company), any sums required to satisfy the federal,
         state, local, and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or
         an affiliate, if any, which arise in connection with the Options.

                  (b) Upon your request and subject to approval by the Company,
         in its sole discretion, and compliance with any applicable conditions
         or restrictions of law, the Company may withhold from fully vested
         shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to you upon the exercise of
         the Options a number of whole shares having a Fair Market Value,
         determined by the Company as of the date of exercise, not in excess of
         the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law. If the date
         of determination of any tax withholding obligation is deferred to a
         date later than the date of exercise of the Options, share withholding
         pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not be permitted unless you
         make a proper and timely election under Section 83(b) of the Internal
         Revenue Code covering the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
         acquired upon such exercise with respect to which such determination is
         otherwise deferred, to accelerate the determination of such tax
         withholding obligation to the date of exercise of the Options.
         Notwithstanding the filing of such election, shares shall be withheld
         solely from fully vested shares of Common Stock determined as of the
         date of exercise of the Options that are otherwise issuable to you upon
         such exercise. Any adverse consequences to you arising in connection
         with such share withholding procedure shall be your sole
         responsibility.

                  (c) The Options are not exercisable unless the tax withholding
         obligations of the Company and/or any affiliate are satisfied.
         Accordingly, you may not be able to exercise the Options when desired
         even though the Options are vested, and the Company shall have no
         obligation to issue a certificate for such shares or release such
         shares from any escrow provided for herein.

         15. Notices. Any notices provided for in the Options shall be given in
writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of
notices delivered by the Company to you, five days after deposit in the United
States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided
to the Company.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has made, executed, and delivered this
Stock Option Agreement to and for the benefit of the Optionee, the same having
been duly authorized and approved by the Board.

         By this exercise, I agree (i) to provide such additional documents as
you may require, (ii) to provide for the payment by me to you (in the manner

         I hereby make the following certifications and representations with
respect to the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company listed above (the

stock option as set forth above:

         I acknowledge that the Shares have not been registered under the

constitute "restricted securities" under Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act. I warrant and represent to the Company that I have no present
intention of distributing or selling said Shares, except as permitted under the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

         I further acknowledge that I will not be able to resell the Shares for

subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) under Rule 701 and that more restrictive conditions that

         I further acknowledge that all certificates representing any of the
Shares subject to the provisions of the option shall have endorsed thereon
appropriate legends reflecting the foregoing limitations, as well as any legends
reflecting restrictions pursuant to the Company's Articles of Incorporation,
Bylaws, and/or applicable securities laws.

         I further agree that, if required by the Company (or a representative
of the underwriters) in connection with the first underwritten registration of
the offering of securities of the Company under the Securities Act, I will not
sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Shares or other securities of the
Company held by me as provided by the terms of my Stock Option Agreement.

                                                Very truly yours,

                                                _______________________________
