EXHIBIT 99.25

                            2000 STOCK OPTION PLAN
                                      OF
                         COMMAND SECURITY CORPORATION

               1. Purpose. The purpose of this Stock Option Plan is to
 advance the interests of Command Security Corporation (the "Corporation") by
 encouraging and enabling the acquisition of a larger personal proprietary
 interest in the Corporation by Eligible Recipients upon whose judgment and
 keen interest the Corporation and its Subsidiaries are largely dependent for
 the successful conduct of their operations. It is anticipated that the
 acquisition of such proprietary interest in the Corporation will stimulate
 the efforts of such Eligible Recipients on behalf of the Corporation and its
 Subsidiaries and strengthen their desire to remain with the Corporation and
 its Subsidiaries. It is also expected that the opportunity to acquire such a
 proprietary interest will enable the Corporation and its Subsidiaries to
 attract desirable personnel.

               2. Definitions. When used in this Plan, unless that context
otherwise requires:

                        (a) "Board of Directors" or "Board" shall mean the

               one Share is reported to have traded in the OTC Bulletin Board
               Service, as reported on the National Association of Securities
               Dealers Automated Quotation System, or the closing price for a
               Share on the stock exchange, if any, on which Shares are
               primarily traded, but if no Shares were traded on such date,
               then on the last previous date on which a Share was so traded,
               or, if none of the above is applicable, the value of a Share

               pursuant to this Plan.

                        (i) "Plan" shall mean this 2000 Stock Option Plan of
               Command Security Corporation as adopted by the Board of

               Internal Revenue Code.

               3. Administration of the Plan. The Board of Directors shall
 appoint a Committee of at least three (3) members of the Board of Directors,
 each of whom shall be a "disinterested person" within the meaning of Rule
 16b-3(b)(3) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which
 shall have the authority to administer the Plan as provided herein. Each
 member of the Committee shall hold office until the next regular annual
 meeting of the Board of Directors following his designation and until his
 successor is designated as a member of the Committee. Any vacancy in the
 Committee may be filled by a resolution adopted by a majority of the full
 Board of Directors. Any member of the Committee may be removed at any time,
 with or without cause, by resolution adopted by a majority of the full Board
 of Directors. A member of the Committee may resign from the committee at any
 time by giving written notice to the President or Secretary of the
 Corporation, and unless otherwise specified therein, such resignation shall
 take effect upon receipt thereof. The acceptance of such resignation shall
 not be necessary to make it effective. The Committee shall establish such
 rules and procedures as are necessary or advisable to administer the Plan.

               4. Participants. Except as hereinafter provided, the class of
 individuals who are potential recipients of options to be granted under this
 Plan consists of those individuals who are Eligible Recipients, as
 determined by the Committee. The Eligible Recipients to whom Options are
 granted under this Plan and the number of Shares subject to each such option
 shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, in accordance
 with the terms and conditions of this Plan.

               5. Shares; Grant of Options. The Committee may, but shall not
 be required to, grant, in accordance with this Plan, Options to purchase an
 aggregate of up to 500,000 Shares, which may be either Treasury Shares or
 authorized but unissued Shares.

               Options granted under this Plan may be either "incentive
 stock options" (within the meaning of Section 422A of the Internal Revenue
 Code) or non-qualified stock options. An Option granted under this Plan
 shall be deemed to be an incentive stock option (within the meaning of
 section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code), unless the Committee, in its
 sole discretion, designates otherwise. Options which are designated not to
 be incentive stock options shall not be treated as such for purposes of this
 Plan and the Internal Revenue Code.

               If any Option shall expire, be cancelled or terminate for any
 reason without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased Shares subject
 thereto may again be made subject to Options under the Plan.

               Nothing herein contained shall be construed to prohibit the
 grant of Options at different times to the same Eligible Recipient.

               The form of Option shall be determined from time to time by
 the Committee. The terms and provisions of the Option shall be set forth in
 writing in a certificate or agreement (the "Option Certificate") signed by
 the Option holder and on behalf of the Corporation by the Chairman of the
 Board of Directors or the President or a Vice President of the Corporation.
 The Option Certificate shall state whether or not the Option is an incentive
 stock option. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, at the time an
 Option is granted, establish one or more conditions to the exercise of an
 Option, provided that, if such Option is designated as an incentive stock
 option, then such condition or conditions shall not be inconsistent with
 Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code.

<PAGE>

               6. Price. The exercise price per share of the Shares to be
 purchased pursuant to any option shall be fixed by the Committee at the time
 an option is granted, but in no event shall it be less than the Fair Market
 Value of a Share on the day on which the option is granted.

               7. Duration of Options. The duration of any Option granted
 under this Plan shall be for a period fixed by the Committee but not more
 than ten (10) years from the date upon which the Option is granted.

               8. Limitations Regarding Ten Percent Stockholders. No option
 which is intended to qualify as an incentive stock option may be granted
 under this Plan to any Eligible Recipient who, at the time the Option is
 granted, owns, or is considered as owning, within the meaning of Section
 422A of the Internal Revenue Code, shares possessing more than ten percent
 (10%) of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of
 the Corporation or a Subsidiary, unless the exercise price under such Option
 is at least 110 percent (110%) of the Fair Market value of a Share on the
 date such Option is granted and the duration of such Option is no mere than
 five (5) years.

               9. Option Holder Not a Stockholder. An Option holder shall not
 be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a stockholder
 with respect to, any Shares subject to such Option unless and until the
 Option shall have been exercised pursuant to the terms thereof, the
 Corporation shall have issued and delivered Shares to the Option holder, and
 said holder's name shall have been entered as a stockholder of record an the
 books of the Corporation. Thereupon, said holder shall have full voting,
 dividend and other ownership rights with respect to such Shares.

             10. Consideration for Options. As consideration for the grant of
 an Option, the Corporation may, in its discretion, obtain in each case: (a)
 from any Eligible Recipient who is an employee of the Corporation or a
 Subsidiary and who, at the time the Option is granted, shall not have been
 under a contract of employment, an option to have the services of such
 Eligible Recipient for such period, up to one (1) year, as the Corporation
 shall determine; or (b) from any Eligible Recipient who is under an
 employment contract at the time the Option is granted, an option to extend
 the term of his contract for a period of up to one (1) year upon such terms
 and conditions as the Corporation and the Eligible Recipient may agree, but
 if they are unable to agree, then upon the same terms and conditions of such
 contract; or (c) from either an Eligible Recipient who is or is not under an
 employment contract at the time the Option is granted, such other
 consideration as the Committee, in its discretion, shall request.

             11. Non-transferability of Options. Options and all rights
 thereunder shall be non-transferable and non-assignable by the holder
 thereof, except to the extent that the representative of the estate or the
 heirs of a deceased option holder may be permitted to exercise them, and
 during the holder's lifetime shall be exercisable only by the holder.

             12. Exercise of Options. Except as otherwise provided herein, an
 Option, after the grant thereof, shall be exercisable by the holder at such
 rate and times as may be fixed by the Committee at the time the Option is
 granted.

               Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the
 contrary, any option granted under the Plan which is an incentive stock
 option shall not be exercisable to the extent that the Fair Market Value of
 the Shares (determined as of the date of grant) with respect to which such
 option (and any other incentive stock option granted to the holder under
 this Plan or any other stock option plan maintained by the Corporation or
 any Subsidiary) first becomes exercisable in any calendar year exceeds
 $100,000.

<PAGE>

               All or any part of any remaining unexercized Options granted
 to any person may be exercised in full, whether or not then exercisable,
 upon the occurrence of such special circumstance or event as in the sole
 discretion of the Committee merits special consideration.

               An Option shall be exercised by the delivery of a written
 notice duly signed by the Option holder thereof (or the representative of
 the estate or the heirs of a deceased Option holder) to such effect,
 together with the Option Certificate and either cash, a certified check
 payable to the order of the Corporation or Shares duly endorsed over to the
 Corporation (which Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as of
 the date preceding the day of such exercise) or any combination of such
 methods of payment, which together amount to the full exercise price of the
 Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Option, to the Chairman of
 the Board, the President or an officer of the Corporation who has been
 designated for the purpose of receiving the same; provided, however, that a
 holder may not use any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option
 granted under this Plan or any other stock option plan maintained by the
 Corporation or any Subsidiary unless the holder has beneficially owned such
 Shares for at least six months. No Option may be granted pursuant to the
 Plan or exercised at any time when such Option, or the granting or exercise
 thereof, may result in the violation of any law or governmental order or
 regulation.

               Within a reasonable time after exercise of an Option, the
 Corporation shall cause to be delivered to the person entitled thereto a
 certificate for the Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Option.
 If the Option shall have been exercised with respect to less than all of the
 Shares subject to the Option, the Corporation shall also cause to be
 delivered to the person entitled thereto a new Option Certificate in
 replacement of the Option Certificate surrendered at the time of the
 exercise of the option, indicating the number of Shares with respect to
 which the option remains available for exercise, or the original option
 Certificate shall be endorsed to give effect to the partial exercise
 thereof.

              13. Termination of Services. All or any part of any Option,
 to the extent unexercised, shall terminate immediately if the Option holder
 ceases to be an employee of the corporation or a Subsidiary, except that the
 Option holder shall have until the end of the tenth (10th) business day
 following the date he ceases to be an employee of the corporation, or a
 Subsidiary, and no longer, to exercise any unexercised Option that he could
 have exercised on the day on which such employment or position terminated;
 provided, that such exercise must be accomplished prior to the expiration of
 the term of such Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an individual
 ceases to be an employee of the corporation or a subsidiary due to
 retirement on or after attaining the, age of sixty-five (65) years (or such
 earlier date as such person shall be permitted to retire under the
 Corporation's retirement plan, if any), or to disability (as such term is
 defined in Section 422A(c)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code, the existence of
 which disability shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole
 discretion, which determination shall be conclusive) or to death, the Option
 holder, or the representative of the estate or the heirs of a deceased
 Option holder, shall have the privilege of exercising the options which are
 unexercisad at the time of such retirement, disability or death, but only to
 the extent that such Options are then exercisable: (a) within three (3)
 months of the option holder's retirement; (b) within one year of the Option
 holders, disability, or (c) within one year of the Option holder's death, as
 the case may be; Provided, however, that such exercise must be accomplished
 prior to the expiration of the term of such Option. If an Option holder
 ceases to be an employee of the Corporation or a Subsidiary because of the
 Option holder's violation of his duties to the Corporation and its
 Subsidiaries as he may from time to time have, the existence of which
 violation shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion

<PAGE>

 (which determination by the Committee shall be conclusive), whether before
 or after the Option holder's termination, all unexercised Options of such
 Option holder shall terminate immediately upon such termination and such
 Option holder shall have no right after such termination to exercise any
 unexercised Option he might have exercised prior to the date he ceased to be
 an employee of the Corporation or a Subsidiary.

               Nothing contained herein or in the Option Certificate shall
 be construed to confer on any Eligible Recipient any right to continue in
 the employ of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries or as a director of the
 Corporation or its Subsidiaries or derogate from any right of the
 Corporation or its Subsidiaries to retire, request the resignation of or
 discharge such Eligible Recipient, at any time, with or without cause.

              14. Adjustment of Shares. If prior to the complete exercise
 of any option there shall be declared and paid a stock dividend upon the
 common stock of the corporation or if the common stock of the Corporation
 shall be split-up, converted, exchanged, reclassified, or in any way
 substituted for, the option, to the extent that it has not been exercised,
 shall entitle the holder thereof upon the future exercise of the Option to
 such number and kind of securities or cash or other property, subject to the
 terms of the Option, to which he would have been entitled had he actually
 owned the Shares subject to the unexercised portion of the Option at the
 time of the occurrence of such stock dividend, split-up, conversion,
 exchange, reclassification or substitution; and the aggregate exercise price
 upon the future exercise of the option shall be the same as if the
 originally optioned Shares were being purchased thereunder. If prior to the
 complete exercise of any Option there shall be a spin-off transaction
 pursuant: to the reorganization of the Corporation, the Option to the extent
 that it has not been exercised, shall be adjusted by adjusting the exercise
 price of the Option and adjusting the number of shares subject thereto, in
 order to reflect the decrease, if any, in the fair market value of the
 Shares, resulting from the spin-off transaction; in any such case, the
 option as adjusted, shall entitle the holder thereof, upon the future
 exercise of the Option, to the number of Shares which have a fair market
 value immediately after the occurrence of the spin-off transaction equal to
 the fair market value of the Shares subject to the Option on the day before
 the occurrence of such spin-off transaction, and the aggregate exercise
 price upon the future exercise of the Option shall be the same as the
 aggregate exercise price of the Shares subject to the option on the day
 before the occurrence of such spin-off transaction. Any fractional shares or
 other securities payable upon the exercise of the Option as a result of such
 adjustment due to the occurrence of such stock dividend, split-up,
 conversion, exchange, reclassification, substitution or spin-off shall be
 payable in Cash based upon the Fair market Value of such shares or
 securities at the time of such exercise. If any such event should occur, the
 number of Shares with respect to which Options remain to be issued, or with
 respect to which Options may be reissued, shall be adjusted in a similar
 manner.

               Upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation, or
 upon a reorganization, merger or consolidation in which the Corporation is
 not the surviving corporation, or in which the Corporation becomes a
 subsidiary of another corporation, or upon the sale of substantially all of
 the property of the Corporation to another corporation, the Plan and the
 Options issued thereunder shall terminate, unless provision is made in
 connection with such transaction for the assumption of Options theretofore
 granted, or the substitution for such Options of new options of the
 successor employer corporation or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with
 appropriate adjustments as to the number and kinds of shares and the per
 share exercise prices.

              15. Issuance of Shares and Compliance with Securities Laws.
 Before issuing and delivering any Shares to an option holder, the

<PAGE>

 Corporation may: (i) require the holder to give satisfactory assurances that
 the Shares are being purchased for investment and not with a view to resale
 or distribution, and will not be transferred in violation of applicable
 securities laws; (ii) restrict the transferability of such Shares and
 require a legend to be endorsed on the certificates representing the Shares;
 and (iii) condition the exercise of an Option or the issuance and delivery
 of Shares upon the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares
 covered by such Option upon a securities exchange or under applicable
 securities laws.

               The Plan is intended to comply with Rule 16b-3 under the
 Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any provision inconsistent with
 such Rule shall be inoperative and shall not affect the validity of the
 Plan.

              16. Income Tax Withholding. If the Corporation or a
 Subsidiary shall be required to withhold any amounts by reason of any
 federal, state or local tax rules or regulations in respect of the issuance
 of Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Option, the Corporation or such
 Subsidiary shall be entitled to deduct and withhold such amount from any
 cash payments to be made to the Option holder. In any event, the holder
 shall make available to the Corporation or such Subsidiary, promptly when
 requested by the Corporation or such Subsidiary, sufficient funds to meet
 the requirements of such withholding, and the Corporation or such Subsidiary
 shall be entitled to take and authorize such steps as it may deem advisable
 in order to have such funds made available to the Corporation or such
 Subsidiary cut of any funds or property due or to become due to the holder.

              17. Administration and Amendment of the Plan. Except as
 hereinafter provided, the Board of Directors and the Committee, if any, may
 at any time withdraw or from time to time amend the Plan as it relates to,
 and the terms and conditions of, any Options not theretofore granted, and
 the Board of Directors and the Committee, if any, with the consent of each
 adversely affected Option holder, may at any time cancel any outstanding
 Option or withdraw or from time to time amend the Plan as it relates to, and
 the terms and conditions of, any outstanding Option. Notwithstanding the
 foregoing, any amendment which would increase the number of Shares issuable
 under Options or change the class of employees to whom options may be
 granted must be adopted by the Board of Directors and shall be subject to
 the approval of the stockholders of the Corporation within one (1) year of
 such amendment.

               Determinations of the Committee as to any question which may
 arise with respect to the interpretation of the provisions of the Plan and
 options shall be final. The Committee may authorize and establish such
 rules, regulations and revisions thereof, not inconsistent with the
 provisions of the Plan, as it may deem advisable to make the Plan and
 Options effective or provide for their administration, and may take such
 other action with regard to the Plan and Options as it shall deem desirable
 to effectuate their purpose.

              18. Indemnification of Committee. In addition to such other
 rights of indemnification as they may have as members of the Board of
 Directors or as members of the Committee, the Corporation shall indemnify
 the members of the Committee against all costs and expenses reasonably
 incurred by them in connection with any action suit or proceeding to which
 they or any of them may be party by reason or any action taken or failure to
 act under or in connection with the Plan or any award made under the Plan,
 and against all amounts paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any
 such action, suit or proceeding, except a judgment based upon a finding of
 bad faith. Upon the institution of any such action, suit or proceeding, a
 Committee member shall notify the Corporation in writing, giving the
 Corporation an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the
 same before such Committee member undertakes to handle it on his own behalf.

<PAGE>

              19. Effective Date. This Plan shall be effective as of
 November 13, 2000, the date on-which the Plan was adopted by the Board of
 Directors of the Company and approved by the holders of a majority of the
 outstanding Shares of the Company at a duly held Stockholders' meeting.

              20. Final Issuance Date. No Option shall be granted under the
Plan after 2010.
