                                                EXERCISE OF OPTION

Section 4.1 - Person Eligible to Exercise

         During the  lifetime of the  Optionee,  only he or she may exercise the
Option or any portion thereof.  After the death of the Optionee, any exercisable
portion  of  the  Option  may,  prior  to  the  time  when  the  Option  becomes
unexercisable,  be  exercised by his or her  personal  representative  or by any
person empowered to do so under the Optionee's will or under the then applicable
laws of descent and distribution.

Section 4.2 - Partial Exercise

         Any  exercisable  portion of the Option or the entire  Option,  if then
wholly  exercisable,  may be  exercised in whole or in part at any time prior to
the time when the  Option or portion  thereof  becomes  unexercisable  under the
Plan; provided,  however,  that each partial exercise shall be for not less than
one hundred (100) Shares (or minimum  installment set forth in Section 3.1, if a

         The Option, or any exercisable portion thereof, may be exercised solely
by delivery to the Secretary or the  Secretary's  office of all of the following
prior to the time when the Option or such portion  becomes  unexercisable  under
the Plan:

         (a) Notice in writing  signed by the  Optionee or the other person then
entitled to exercise the Option or portion  thereof,  stating that the Option or
portion thereof is thereby exercised,  such notice complying with all applicable
rules established by the Committee; and

         (b)  (i) Full payment (in cash or by check) for the Shares with respect
 to which such Option or portion
         is exercised; or

             (ii)  Shares  of any  class  of the  Company's  stock  owned by the
         Optionee  duly  endorsed for transfer to the Company with a fair market
         value on the date of delivery  equal to the  aggregate  Option price of
         the Shares  with  respect  to which  such  Option or portion is thereby
         exercised; or

            (iii) With the consent of the Committee,  a full recourse promissory
         note bearing  interest  (at least such rate as shall then  preclude the
         imputation of interest  under the Code or any successor  provision) and
         payable  upon such terms as may be  prescribed  by the  Committee.  The
         Committee may also  prescribe the form of such note and the security to
         be given for such  note.  No  Option  may,  however,  be  exercised  by
         delivery of a  promissory  note or by a loan from the  Company  when or
         where such loan or other extension of credit is prohibited by law; or

             (iv) Any combination of the consideration provided in the foregoing
subsections (i), (ii), and (iii); and

         (c)      Full payment to the Company of all amounts which, under 
federal, state or local law, it is required
to withhold upon exercise of the Option; and

         (d) In the  event the  Option or  portion  thereof  shall be  exercised
pursuant  to  Section  4.1 by any person or  persons  other  than the  Optionee,
appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option.
