     1.1. PURPOSE AND HISTORY OF THE PLAN. The Directors' Stock Option Plan of
Chromcraft Revington, Inc. was originally adopted effective as of January 1,
2002. Effective as of December 1, 2005, the Plan is amended and restated
principally to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the
Plan from Seventy-Five Thousand (75,000) to One Hundred Fifty Thousand (150,000)
shares and to extend the duration of the Plan from December 31, 2011 to December
1, 2014. The Plan is designed to promote the interests of Chromcraft Revington,
Inc. and its stockholders through the granting of Options to the non-employee
members of the Company's Board of Directors, thereby encouraging their focus on
the growth and profitability of the Company.

     1.2. EFFECTIVE DATE AND DURATION. The Effective Date of the Plan, as
amended and restated, is December 1, 2005. Options may be granted hereunder for
a period of ten (10) years commencing December 1, 2005. However, no Options may
be exercised until the Plan has been approved by a majority of the shares of the
Company represented at the stockholders' meeting at which approval of the Plan
is considered. No Options will be granted after December 1, 2014. On that date,
the Plan will expire, except as to outstanding Options, which Options will
remain in effect until they have been exercised, terminated or have expired.

                                 ADMINISTRATION

     4.1. THE COMMITTEE. The Plan will be administered by the Committee. The
decision or action of a majority of the actual number of members of the
Committee will constitute the decision or action of the Committee. The Committee
will consist of not less than three (3) Directors. The members of the Committee
will be appointed from time to time by, and will serve at the pleasure of, the
Board of Directors. It is intended that the Committee be comprised solely of
Directors who are "non-employee directors" under Rule 16b-3. Failure of the
Committee to be so comprised will not result in the cancellation, termination,
expiration, or lapse of any Award.

     4.2. AUTHORITY OF THE COMMITTEE. Except as limited by law or by the
Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company, and subject to the
provisions of the Plan, the Committee will have full power and discretion to
construe and interpret the Plan, all Award Agreements and any other agreements
or instruments entered into under the Plan; establish, amend or waive rules and
regulations for the Plan's administration; and amend the terms and conditions of
any outstanding Option and applicable Award Agreement to the extent such terms
and conditions are within the discretion of the Committee as provided in the
Plan. Further, the Committee will make all other determinations which may be
necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. Each Option will be
evidenced by a written Award Agreement between the Company and the Director and
will contain such terms and conditions established by the Committee consistent
with the provisions of the Plan. Any notice or document required to be given to
or filed with the Committee will be properly given or filed if hand delivered
(and a delivery receipt is received) or mailed by certified mail, return receipt
requested, postage paid, to the Committee at 1100 North Washington Street,
Delphi, Indiana 46923.

     4.3. DELEGATION BY THE COMMITTEE. The Committee, in its sole discretion and
on such terms and conditions as it may provide, may delegate all or any part of
its authority and powers under the Plan to one or more Directors or officers of
the Company; provided, however, that the Committee may not delegate its
authority and powers (a) with respect to grants to Section 16 Persons, or (b) in
any way which would jeopardize the Plan's qualification under Rule 16b-3.

     4.4. DECISIONS BINDING. All determinations and decisions made by the
Committee, the Board and any delegate of the Committee pursuant to Section 4.3
will be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company and
Directors. No such determinations will be subject to de novo review if
challenged in court.

     4.5. ADMINISTRATIVE DISCRETION. Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Plan, unless set forth or otherwise contemplated herein, the Committee will have
no authority to (i) grant Options; (ii) determine the option period; (iii)
determine the time or times at which Options will be granted; (iv) determine the
time or times when an Option becomes exercisable; or (v) determine other
conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of an Option.

                                    SECTION 5

                           SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

     5.1. NUMBER OF SHARES. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.5,
the maximum number of Shares cumulatively available for issuance under the Plan
will not exceed One Hundred Fifty Thousand (150,000) Shares less the total
number of Shares previously issued under the Plan. Shares issued under the Plan
may be either authorized but unissued Shares, treasury Shares or reacquired
Shares (including Shares purchased in the open market), or any combination
thereof, as the Committee may from time to time determine in its sole
discretion.

     Shares covered by an Option that remain unpurchased or undistributed upon
termination or expiration of any such Option may be made the subject of further
Options to the same or other Directors. If the exercise price of any Option is
satisfied by tendering Shares (by either actual delivery or attestation), only
the number of Shares actually issued, net of the Shares tendered, will be deemed
issued for purposes of determining the number of Shares available for grants
under the Plan.

     5.2. RELEASE OF SHARES. Subject to the limitations set forth in the Plan,
the Committee will have full authority to include (without limitation) as
available for distribution any Shares that have ceased to be subject to an
Option; any Shares under an Option that otherwise terminates without the
issuance of Shares being made to a Director; any Shares that are received by the
Company in connection with the exercise of an Option, including the satisfaction
of any tax liability or tax withholding obligation; or any Shares repurchased by
the Company in the open market or otherwise, having an aggregate repurchase
price no greater than the amount of cash proceeds received by the Company from
the exercise of Options granted under the Plan. Any Shares that are available
immediately prior to the termination of the Plan, or any Shares returned to the
Company for any reason subsequent to the termination of the Plan, may be
transferred to a successor plan.

     5.3. RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will
be subject to the terms and conditions specified herein and to such other terms,
conditions and restrictions as the Committee in its sole discretion may
determine or provide in the Award Agreement. The Company will not be required to
issue or deliver any certificates for Shares, cash or other property prior to
(a) the listing of such Shares on any stock exchange (or other public market) on
which the Shares may then be listed (or regularly traded), and (b) the
completion of any registration or qualification of such shares under federal,
state, local or other law, or any ruling or regulation of any government body
which the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable. The Company may
cause any certificate for any Shares to be delivered hereunder to be properly
marked with a legend or other notation reflecting the limitations on transfer of
such Shares as provided in the Plan or as the Committee may otherwise require.
Directors, or any other persons entitled to benefits under the Plan, must
furnish to the Committee such documents, evidence, data or other information as
the Committee considers necessary or desirable for the purpose of administering
the Plan. The benefits under the Plan for each Director, and each other person


                                       5

<PAGE>

who is entitled to benefits hereunder, are to be provided on the condition that
he furnish full, true and complete data, evidence or other information, and that
he will promptly sign any document reasonably related to the administration of
the Plan requested by the Committee. No fractional Shares will be issued under
the Plan; rather, fractional shares will be aggregated and then rounded to the
next lower whole Share.

     5.4. STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. No person will have any rights of a stockholder
(including, but not limited to, voting and dividend rights) as to Shares subject
to an Option until, after proper exercise of the Option or other action as may
be required by the Committee in its sole discretion, such Shares will have been
recorded on the Company's official stockholder records (or the records of its
transfer agents or registrars) as having been issued and transferred to the
Director. Upon exercise of the Option or any portion thereof, the Company will
have a reasonable period in which to issue and transfer the Shares to the
Director, and the Director will not be treated as a stockholder for any purpose
whatsoever prior to such issuance and transfer. No payment or adjustment will be
made for cash dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to
the date such Shares are recorded as issued and transferred in the Company'
official stockholder records (or the records of its transfer agents or
registrars), except as provided herein or in an Award Agreement.

     5.5. CHANGES IN STOCK.

          5.5.1. SUBSTITUTION OF STOCK AND ASSUMPTION OF PLAN. In the event of
     any change in the Shares by virtue of any stock dividends, stock splits,
     recapitalizations or reclassifications or in the event that other
     securities will be substituted for the Shares as the result of any merger,
     consolidation, share exchange or reorganization or any similar transaction
     which constitutes a Change in Control of the Company, the Committee will
     correspondingly adjust (a) the number, kind and class of Shares which may
     be delivered under the Plan; (b) the number, kind, class and price of
     Shares subject to outstanding Awards (except for mergers or other
     combinations in which the Company is the surviving entity); and (c) the
     numerical limits of Sections 5.1 and 6.1 all in such manner as the
     Committee in its sole discretion determines to be advisable or appropriate
     to prevent the dilution or diminution of such Options.

          5.5.2. CONVERSION OF SHARES. In the event of a Change in Control of
     the Company pursuant to which another person or entity acquires control of
     the Company (such other person or entity being the "Successor"), the kind
     of shares of stock which will be subject to the Plan and to each
     outstanding Option will, automatically by virtue of such Change in Control,
     be converted into and replaced by securities of the Successor having full
     voting, dividend, distribution, preference, and liquidation rights, and the
     number of shares subject to an Option, the calculation of an Option's
     value, and the purchase price per share upon exercise of the Option will be
     correspondingly adjusted so that, by virtue of such Change in Control of
     the Company, each Director will have the right to purchase (a) that number
     of shares of stock of the Successor which have a Fair Market Value, as of
     the date of such Change in Control of the Company, equal to the Fair Market
     Value, as of the date of such Change in Control of the Company, of the
     Shares of the Company theretofore subject to each Option; and (b) for a
     purchase price per share which, when multiplied by the number of shares of
     stock of the Successor subject to each Option, will equal the aggregate
     exercise price at which the Director could have acquired all of the Shares
     of the Company previously optioned to the Director.

                                    SECTION 6

                                  STOCK OPTIONS

     6.1. OPTION GRANTS. For each year during the term of the Plan, effective on
the day after each annual meeting of the Company's stockholders and commencing
with the 2006 annual meeting, each Director will receive an Option to purchase
Two Thousand Five Hundred (2,500) Shares; provided, however, that each
individual who is appointed or elected to serve as a Director for the first time
and who is eligible under Section 3.1 will receive an Option to purchase Ten
Thousand (10,000) Shares. Thereafter, such Director will be eligible to receive
Options as specified in the first sentence of this Section 6.1.

     6.2. AWARD AGREEMENT. Each Option will be evidenced by an Award Agreement
that will specify the Exercise Price, the number of Shares to which the Option
pertains, the Option Period, any conditions to exercise of the Option and such
other terms and conditions as the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines
within the limitations prescribed by the Plan.

     6.3. EXERCISE PRICE. The Exercise Price for each Option will be not be less
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares to which
the Option relates determined as of the Grant Date.

     6.4. METHOD OF EXERCISE. Subject to the provisions of this Section 6 and
the applicable Award Agreement, a Director may exercise an Option, in whole or
in part, at any time during the Option Period by giving written notice to the
Company of exercise on a form provided by the Committee (if available). Such
notice will specify the number of Shares subject to the Option to be purchased
and will be accompanied by payment in full of the total Exercise Price by cash
or check or such other form of payment as the Company may accept. If permitted
by the Committee or the applicable Award Agreement, payment in full or in part
may also be made by:

     (a)  Delivering Shares already owned by the Director for more than six (6)
          months and having a total Fair Market Value on the date of such
          delivery equal to the total Exercise Price;

     (b)  The delivery of cash by a broker-dealer as a Cashless Exercise;

     (c)  The certification of ownership of Shares owned by the Director to the
          satisfaction of the Committee for later delivery to the Company as
          specified by the Committee; or

     (d)  Any combination of the foregoing.

     No Shares will be issued until full payment therefor has been made. A
Director will have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company holding the
class of Shares subject to such Option (including, if applicable, the right to
vote the shares and the right to receive dividends) when the Director has given
written notice of exercise, has paid the total Exercise Price and such Shares
have been recorded on the Company's official stockholder records (or the records
of its transfer agents or registrars) as having been issued and transferred to
the Director.


                                       7

<PAGE>

     6.5. RESTRICTIONS ON SHARE TRANSFERABILITY. In addition to the restrictions
imposed by Section 9.5, the Committee may impose such restrictions on any Shares
acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option as it may deem advisable or
appropriate in its sole discretion, including, but not limited to, restrictions
related to applicable Federal and state securities laws and the requirements of
any national securities exchange or market on which Shares are then listed or
regularly traded.

     6.6. EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. All rights to exercise an Option will terminate
ninety (90) days following the date on which the Director ceases to be a
Director, unless the termination of his status is on account of (i) Disability,
or (ii) death, but not later than the date the Option expires pursuant to its
terms. In the case of Disability or death, the Option may be exercised within
one (1) year from the date his status as a Director ceases due to Disability or
death, but not later than the date the Option expires pursuant to its terms.
Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 6.6, the Committee
shall cancel all outstanding Options of a Director who is removed from the
Board.

     6.8. OPTION PERIOD. The option period for each Option will be ten (10)
years from the Grant Date.

                                    SECTION 7

                                    AMENDMENT

     The Board may supplement, amend, alter or discontinue the Plan in its sole
discretion at any time and from time to time, but no supplement, amendment,
alteration or discontinuation will be made which would impair the rights of a
Director under an Option that has been granted without the Director's consent,
except that any supplement, amendment, alteration or discontinuation may be made
to (a) avoid a material charge or expense to the Company or an Affiliate, (b)
cause the Plan to comply with applicable law, or (c) permit the Company or an
Affiliate to claim a tax deduction under applicable law. In addition, subject to
the provisions of this Section 7, the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion
at any time and from time to time, may supplement, amend, alter or discontinue
the Plan without the approval of the Company's stockholders (a) to the extent
such approval is not required by applicable law or the terms of a written
agreement, and (b) so long as any such amendment or alteration does not (i)
increase the number of Shares subject to the Plan (other than pursuant to
Section 5.5), (ii) increase the maximum number of Options the Committee may
award to an individual Director (other than pursuant to Section 5.5), (iii)
decrease the Exercise Price (other than pursuant to Section 5.5), (iv) extend
the term of the Plan or any Option Period, (v) change the restrictions on
transferability of Options, (vi) change the manner of determining the Exercise
Price, (vii) change the class of individuals eligible for Options, or (viii)
withdraw administration of the Plan from the Committee or Board. The Committee
may supplement, amend, alter or discontinue the terms of any Option theretofore
granted, prospectively or retroactively, on the same conditions and limitations
(and exceptions to limitations) as apply to the Board under the foregoing
provisions of this Section 7, and further subject to any approval or limitations
the Board may impose.

liable for any action, failure to act, decision or determination made in good
faith in connection with the Plan. By participating in the Plan, each Director
agrees to release and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates (and their
respective directors, officers and employees) and the Committee from and against
any tax liability, including, but not limited to, interest and penalties,
incurred by the Director in connection with his receipt of Options under the
Plan and the payment and exercise thereof. Each person who is or has been a
member of the Committee, or of the Board, will be indemnified and held harmless
by the Company against and from (a) any loss, cost, liability or expense
(including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees) that may be imposed upon or
reasonably incurred by him in connection with or resulting from any claim,
action, suit or proceeding to which he may be a party or in which he may be
involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan or any
Award Agreement; and (b) any and all amounts paid by him in settlement thereof,
with the Company's prior written approval, or paid by him in satisfaction of any
judgment in any such claim, action, suit or proceeding against him; provided,
however, that he will give the Company an opportunity, at the Company's expense,
to handle and defend such claim, action, suit or proceeding before he undertakes
to handle and defend the same on his own behalf. The foregoing right of
indemnification will not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to
which such persons may be entitled under the Company's Articles of Incorporation
or By-Laws, by contract, as a matter of law or otherwise, or under any power
that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

     9.3. SUCCESSORS AND CHANGE IN CONTROL. All obligations of the Company under
the Plan, with respect to Options granted hereunder, will be binding on any
successor to the Company, whether or not the existence of such successor is the
result of a Change in Control of the Company. The Company will not, and will not
permit its Affiliates to, recommend, facilitate, or agree or consent to a
transaction or series of transactions which would result in a Change in Control
of the Company unless and until the person or persons or entity or entities
acquiring control of the Company as a result of such Change in Control agree(s)
to be bound by the terms of the Plan insofar as it pertains to Awards
theretofore granted and agrees to assume and perform the obligations of the
Company and its Successor (as defined in subsection 5.5.2) hereunder.

     For purposes of this Section 9.3, a "Change in Control" shall mean a
transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which (a) a majority
of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, on a fully diluted
basis, shall be owned by any person (as hereinafter defined) or group of persons
who, as of March 15, 2002, own (together with their affiliates) an aggregate of
less than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding shares of common stock of the
Company on a fully diluted basis; (b) the Company consolidates with, merges into
or with or effects any plan of share exchange with any unaffiliated or unrelated
entity and, after giving effect to such consolidation, merger or share exchange,
a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, on a fully
diluted basis, shall be owned by any person or group of persons who, as of March
15, 2002, own (together with their affiliates) an aggregate of less than fifty
percent (50%) of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company on a
fully diluted basis; (c) the Company disposes of all or substantially


                                       10

<PAGE>

all of its assets; or (d) the Company is liquidated or dissolved or adopts a
plan of liquidation or dissolution.

     For purposes of the definition of "Change in Control," (i) a person or
group of persons shall not include the Chromcraft Revington, Inc. Employee Stock
Ownership Plan Trust which forms a part of the Chromcraft Revington, Inc.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP"), or any other employee benefit plan,
subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, and (ii) the outstanding shares of
common stock of the Company, on a fully diluted basis, shall include all shares
owned by the ESOP, whether allocated or unallocated to the accounts of
participants thereunder.

     9.4. BENEFICIARY DESIGNATIONS. A Director may designate, on such forms as
may be provided by the Committee for such purpose, a Beneficiary to whom any
benefits hereunder will be paid in the event of the Director's death. Each such
designation will revoke all prior designations by the Director and will be
effective only if given in a form and manner acceptable to the Committee. In the
absence of any such designation, any benefits remaining unpaid at the Director's
death will be paid to the Director's estate and, subject to the terms of the
Plan and of the applicable Award Agreement, any unexercised Option may be
exercised by the administrator or executor of the Director's estate.

     9.5. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF AWARDS. Except as provided in Sections 9.5.1 and
9.5.2, no Option can be sold, transferred, assigned, margined, encumbered,
bequeathed, gifted, alienated, hypothecated, pledged or otherwise disposed of,
whether by operation of law, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or otherwise,
other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In addition, no
Option will be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any
attempted or purported transfer of an Option in contravention of the Plan or an
Award Agreement will be null and void ab initio and of no force or effect
whatsoever. All rights with respect to an Option will be exercisable during the
Director's lifetime only by the Director.

          9.5.1. LIMITED TRANSFERS OF OPTIONS. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
     the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit the transfer of Options
     by a Director to (a) the Director's spouse, any children or lineal
     descendants of the Director or the Director's spouse, or the spouse(s) of
     any such children or lineal descendants ("Immediate Family Members"), (b) a
     trust or trusts for the exclusive benefit of Immediate Family Members, or
     (c) a partnership or limited liability company in which the Director and/or
     the Immediate Family Members are the only equity owners, (collectively,
     "Eligible Transferees"); provided, however, that, in the event the
     Committee permits the transferability of Options granted to the Director,
     the Committee may subsequently, in its sole discretion, amend, modify,
     revoke, or restrict, without the prior consent, authorization, or agreement
     of the Eligible Transferee, the ability of the Director to transfer Options
     that have not been already transferred to an Eligible Transferee. An Option
     that is transferred to an Immediate Family Member will not be transferable
     by such Immediate Family Member, except for any transfer by such Immediate
     Family Member's will or by the laws of descent and distribution upon the
     death of such Immediate Family Member.

          9.5.2. EXERCISE BY ELIGIBLE TRANSFEREES. In the event the Committee,
     in its sole discretion, permits the transfer of Options by a Director to an
     Eligible Transferee under Section 9.5.1, the Options transferred to the
     Eligible Transferee must be exercised by


                                       11

<PAGE>

     such Eligible Transferee and, in the event of the death of such Eligible
     Transferee, by such Eligible Transferee's heirs and legatees under his will
     or his executor or administrator, as the case may be, only in the same
     manner, to the same extent, and under the same circumstances (including,
     but not limited to, the time period within which the Options must be
     exercised) as the Director could have exercised such Options. The Director,
     or in the event of his death, the Director's estate, will remain liable for
     all federal, state, local, and other taxes applicable upon the exercise of
     an Option by an Eligible Transferee.

     9.6. NO RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER. No Director (or any Beneficiary) will have
any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company with respect to
any Shares issuable pursuant to an Option (or the exercise thereof), unless and
until certificates representing such Shares have been recorded on the Company's
official stockholder records (or the records of its transfer agents or
registrars) as having been issued and transferred to the Director (or his
Beneficiary).

     9.7. FUNDING. Shares to be distributed under the Plan will be issued
directly by the Company from its authorized but unissued Shares or acquired by
the Company on the open market or a combination thereof. Neither the Company nor
any of its Affiliates will be required to segregate on its books or otherwise
establish any funding procedure for any amount to be used for the payment of
benefits under the Plan. The Company or any of its Affiliates may, however, in
its sole discretion, set funds aside in investments to meet any anticipated
obligations under the Plan. Any such action or set-aside will not be deemed to
create a trust of any kind between the Company or any of its Affiliates and any
Director or other person entitled to benefits under the Plan or to constitute
the funding of any Plan benefits. Consequently, any person entitled to a payment
under the Plan will have no rights greater than the rights of any other
unsecured general creditor of the Company or its Affiliates.

     9.8. USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of
Shares pursuant to the Plan will be used for general corporate purposes.
