      -----------
have performed or who are about to perform services for the Company and who are

under this Plan.  Said designated person shall hereinafter be referred to as
"Participant".

  6.  Allotment of Shares.  The grant of an option to an eligible person under
      -------------------
this Plan shall not be deemed either to entitle such person to, or to disqualify
such person from, participation in any other grant of options under this Plan or
under any other plan of the Company.

      ------------

      -------------
during the period (the "Option Period") which begins upon the date the option is
granted (or at such other time as may be determined by the Board or Committee,
as set forth in the resolutions evidencing the grant of the option) and which
ends no later than ten (10) years after the date the option is granted or such
lesser time as may be determined by the Board or the Committee as set forth in

legatees or distributees of his estate shall have the right, for a period of one
(1) year after the date of his death to exercise the unexercised and unexpired
portion, if any, of such option, in whole or in part, to the same extent that
the Participant could have exercised such option at the expiration of such one
(1) year  period had the Participant lived.

  11.  Payment and Notice of Exercise.      Full payment of the purchase price
       ------------------------------
for shares purchased upon the exercise, in whole or in part, of an option
granted under this Plan shall be made at the time of such exercise.  The
purchase price must be paid for with cash.  No such shares shall be issued or
transferred to a Participant until full payment therefor has been made and the
Participant has delivered his written Notice of Exercise of the respective
options to the Company at its principal office, and a Participant who is not
already a stockholder at the time of the issue shall have none of the rights of
a stockholder until shares are issued or transferred to him.

  12.  Exercise of Option.  As directed by the Board or Committee, options
       ------------------
granted hereunder may be exercisable by a Participant pursuant to a vesting
formula which will set forth the dates and the number of options which are then
available to the Participant.  Options granted under this Plan shall be
exercisable during the Option Period at such times, in such amounts, in
accordance with such terms and conditions, and subject to such restrictions as
may be determined by the Board or Committee, and as are set forth in the
resolutions and the Notice of Grant evidencing the grant of such options as well
as the Notice of Exercise evidencing a Participant's exercise of such options.
In no event shall an option be exercised or shares be issued pursuant to an
option if any applicable laws shall not have been conformed with or if any
requisite approval or consent of any governmental authority having jurisdiction
over the exercise of the options or the issue and sale of the Common Stock shall
not have been secured, unless in the opinion of counsel for the Company the
exercise or issuance is exempt from the obligation to obtain approval or
consent.  Each Participant shall agree not to offer, sell, pledge, hypothecate
or otherwise transfer any shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the
exercise of an option granted under this Plan unless the shares have been
registered under applicable federal and state securities laws or unless the
proposed transaction is exempt from such registration in the opinion of Counsel
for the Company.  Each Participant shall, at the time of purchase of shares of
Common Stock upon the exercise of an option, if requested by the Company upon
advice of its counsel that the same is necessary or desirable, deliver to the
Company his written representation that he is purchasing the shares for his own
account for investment and not with a view to public distribution or with any
present intention of reselling any of such shares, and deliver such other
written representations as may be reasonably requested by the Company to assure
compliance with applicable laws.  If a Participant so requests, shares purchased
upon the exercise of an option may be issued in or transferred into the name of
the Participant and other person jointly with the right of survivorship.

  13.  Changes in Capital Structures, etc.  In the event of the payment of any
       ----------------------------------
dividend payable in, or the making of any distribution of, Common Stock of the
Company to holders of record of Common Stock of the Company, which increases the
outstanding Common Stock of the Company by more than twenty-five (25%) percent
during the period any option granted under this Plan is outstanding or in the
event of any stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or other
similar change in the authorized capital stock of the Company during such period
or in the event of the merger or consolidation of the Company into or with any
other corporation or the reorganization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up
of the Company during such period, Participants shall be entitled, upon the
exercise of any unexercised option held by them, to receive such new, additional
or other shares of stock of any class, or other property (including cash), as

                                       3
<PAGE>

they would have been entitled to receive as a matter of law in connection with
such payment, distribution, stock split, combination, recapitalization, change,
merger, consolidation, reorganization, dissolution or liquidation, as the case
may be, had they held the shares of the Common Stock being purchased upon
exercise of such option on the record date set for the such payment or
distribution or on the date of such stock split, combination, recapitalization,
change, merger, consolidation, reorganization, dissolution or liquidation, and
the option price under any such option shall be appropriately adjusted.  In case
any such event shall occur during the term of this Plan, the number of shares
that my be optioned and sold under this Plan as provided in Section 4. shall be
appropriately adjusted.  The decision of the Board or the Committee, with
respect to all such adjustments shall be conclusive.

  14.  Nontransferability.  Options granted under this Plan shall not be
       ------------------
transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and
shall be exercisable only by the Participant or by Participant's heirs or
personal representatives as provided in Section 10. of this Plan.

  15.  Other Provisions.  Options granted under this Plan shall contain such
       ----------------
other provisions, including, without limitation, restrictions upon the exercise
of the option, as the Board or Committee shall deem advisable by written notice
to Participant.

  16.  Re-Issuance of Shares.  Any shares of Common Stock which, by reason of
       ---------------------
the expiration of an option or otherwise, are no longer subject to purchase
pursuant to an option granted under this Plan shall be available for re-issuance
under this Plan.

  17.  Interpretation.    The Board shall interpret this Plan and prescribe,
       --------------
amend or rescind rules and regulations relating to it and make any and all other
determinations necessary or advisable for its administration.

  18.  Term of Plan, Amendment, Discontinuance.     Upon approval by the Board
       ---------------------------------------
of Directors, the Plan shall be deemed effective and adopted as of such date.
This Plan, unless sooner terminated or discontinued by the Board pursuant to
this Section 18, shall expire on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date
(except to the extent necessary for administration of options exercisable but
unexercised on that date), and no options shall be granted under this Plan after
that date.  The Board may terminate or discontinue this Plan at any time and may
suspend this Plan or amend or modify this Plan in any respect at any time or
from time to time, without the approval of the stockholders, except that the
number of shares of Common Stock that may be optioned and sold under this Plan,
as provided in Section 4., above, may not be changed (except pursuant to Section
13., above) and the class of eligible persons to whom options may be granted, as
provided in Section 5., above, may not be modified without the approval of the

                                       4
<PAGE>

Board or the Committee.  No action of the Board, the Committee or stockholders
may alter or impair the rights of a Participant under any option theretofore
granted to him without his consent to such action.

  19.  Effect of the Plan, etc.  Neither the adoption of this Plan, nor any
       -----------------------
action of the Board or Committee, shall be deemed to give any person any right
to be granted an option to purchase Common Stock of the Company or any other
rights hereunder unless and until the Board or Committee shall have adopted a
resolution granting such person an option, and then only to the extent and on
such terms and conditions as may be set forth in such resolution; the terms and
conditions of options granted under this Plan may differ from one another as the
Board or Committee shall at its discretion determine, as long as all options
granted under the Plan satisfy the requirements in this Plan.
