NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the
Exercise Price directly to the Company; (h) provided that a public market for
the Common Stock exists, a "margin" commitment from the Optionee and an NASD

"incentive stock option" treatment under Section 422 of the Code, the aggregate
Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the Common Stock shall

Company in the manner set forth in Section 6.3 hereof and by executing and

Agreement shall be in such form, and shall set forth the Purchase Price and such

6.2 hereof, an Offeree shall have the rights of a stockholder with respect to
the Restricted Stock purchased pursuant to the Right to Purchase, including
voting and dividend rights, subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions as

Stock Purchase Agreement.

     6.5  Restrictions. Shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold, assigned,

death or disability), the Stock Purchase Agreement may provide, in the
discretion of the Administrator, that the Company shall have the right,
exercisable at the discretion of the Administrator, to repurchase (i) at the
original Purchase Price, any shares of Restricted Stock which have not vested as
of the date of termination, and (ii) at Fair Market Value, any shares of
Restricted Stock which have vested as of such date, on such terms as may be

determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan, but

action, decision, interpretation or determination made in good faith by the
Administrator in the exercise of its authority conferred upon it under the Plan
shall be final and binding on the Company and all Participants.

     7.3  Limitation on Liability. No employee of the Company or member of the
Board or Committee shall be subject to any liability with respect to duties
under the Plan unless the person acts fraudulently or in bad faith. To the

                                CHANGE IN CONTROL

     8.1  Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control of the Company,
the Administrator in its discretion may, at any time an Option or Right to
Purchase is granted, or at any time thereafter, take one or more of the
following actions: (A) provide for the purchase of each Option or Right to
Purchase for an amount of cash or other property that could have been received
upon the exercise of the Option or Right to Purchase had the Option been
currently exercisable, (B) adjust the terms of the Options and Rights to
Purchase in a manner determined by the Administrator to reflect the Change in
Control, (C) cause the Options and Rights to Purchase to be continued or
assumed, or new rights substituted therefor, by the surviving or another entity,
through the continuance of the Plan and the continuation or assumption of
outstanding Options and Rights to Purchase, or the substitution for such Options
and Rights to Purchase of new options and new rights to purchase of comparable
value covering shares of a successor corporation, with appropriate adjustments
as to the number and kind of shares and Exercise Prices, in which event the Plan
and such Options and Rights to Purchase, or the new options and rights to
purchase substituted therefor, shall continue in the manner and under the terms
so provided or (D) make such other provision as the Administrator may consider
equitable. If the Administrator does not take any of the forgoing actions, all
Options and Rights to Purchase shall terminate upon the consummation of the
Change in Control and the Administrator shall cause written notice of the
proposed transaction to be given to all Participants not less than fifteen (15)
days prior to the anticipated effective date of the proposed transaction.
Whether or not provision is made for continuance of the Plan and the
continuance, assumption or substitution of outstanding Options or Rights to
Purchase, concurrent with the effective date of the Change of Control all
Options, Rights of Purchase and Restricted Stock shall be accelerated and
concurrent with such date the holders of such Options and Rights to Purchase
shall have the right to exercise such Options and Rights of Purchase in respect
to any or all shares subject thereto.

     9.1  Amendments. The Board may from time to time alter, amend, suspend or
terminate the Plan in such respects as the Board may deem advisable. No such
alteration, amendment, suspension or termination shall be made which shall
substantially affect or impair the rights of any Participant under an
outstanding Option Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreement without such
Participant's consent. The Board may alter or amend the Plan to comply with
requirements under the Code relating to Incentive Options or other types of
options which give Optionee more favorable tax treatment than that applicable to
Options granted under this Plan as of the date of its adoption. Upon any such
alteration or amendment, any outstanding Option granted hereunder may, if the
Administrator so determines and if permitted by applicable law, be subject to
the more favorable tax treatment afforded to an Optionee pursuant to such terms
and conditions.

     9.2  Plan Termination. Unless the Plan shall theretofore have been
terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the
Effective Date and no Options or Rights to Purchase may be granted under the
Plan thereafter, but Option Agreements, Stock Purchase Agreements and Rights to
Purchase then outstanding shall continue in effect in accordance with their
respective terms.
