ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS


1.Method of Payment. Payment of the exercise price per share is
due in full upon exercise of all or any part of this option. You may make payment of the exercise
price under one or a combination of the following alternatives:


a.Payment of the exercise price per share in cash or check at the time of
exercise;

b.Payment with an executed promissory note in the amount of the exercise
price per share, if so determined by the officers of the Company. All amounts due under the note
will be payable no later than three (3) years following the time of exercise, or upon your earlier
termination of service with the Company and its parent and subsidiary corporations (as defined in
Section 424 of the Code and hereinafter referred to as an "Affiliate"). The note will bear interest
at the minimum rate established by the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") necessary to avoid the
treatment as interest under any applicable provisions of the Code of any portion of any amounts
other than amounts stated to be interest under the note. The note will be secured by a pledge of the
Company's common stock ("Common Stock") purchased with the note. The forms to be used for the
promissory note and the pledge of shares and any additional documentation shall be determined by and
be satisfactory to the Company;

c.If at the time of exercise the Common Stock is publicly traded and
quoted regularly in the Wall Street Journal, payment with shares of Common Stock you already own.
The shares of Common Stock (i) will be valued at its fair market value on the date of exercise, (ii)
if originally acquired from the Company, must have been held for the period required to avoid a
charge to the Company's reported earnings, and (iii) must be owned free and clear of any liens,
claims, encumbrances or security interests;

d.This option may also be exercised as part of a program developed under
Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which results in the receipt of cash (or a
check) by the Company before Common Stock is issued or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to
pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds before Common Stock is
issued; or

e.Payment by a combination of the methods of payment listed in
subparagraph 1.a. through 1.d. above.




2.No Exercise of Unvested Shares. This option does not permit
exercise with respect to any unvested shares.

3.Whole Shares. You may exercise this option only for whole shares
and the Company shall be under no obligation to issue any fractional shares of Common Stock to
you.

4.Securities Law Compliance. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this option, this option may not be exercised unless the shares issuable upon
exercise of this option are then registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act") or, if the shares are not registered at that time, the Company has determined that
the exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act.

5.Term of Option. The term of this option begins on the date you
were granted this option and terminates on the Expiration Date set forth in the Agreement, unless it
terminates sooner for reasons described below. You may not, under any circumstances, exercise this
option after the Expiration Date. By delivering written notice to the Company, in a form
satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third party who, in the event of your death, shall
thereafter be entitled to exercise this option.

This option will terminate prior to the end of its term if your Continuous
Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant with the Company or any Affiliate is terminated for
any reason or for no reason. Your option will then terminate three (3) months after the date on
which you are no longer providing services to the Company or any Affiliate unless one of the
following circumstances exists:


a.Your termination of service is due to your permanent and
total disability (within the meaning of Section 422(c)(6) of the Code). This option will then
terminate on the earlier of the Expiration Date or twelve (12) months following the termination of
your Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant.

b.Your termination of service is due to your death. This
option will then terminate on the earlier of the Expiration Date or twelve (12) months after your
death.

c.If during any part of the three (3)-month period described
above you may not exercise your option solely because of the condition described in paragraph 4
above, then your option will not terminate until the earlier of the Expiration Date or until this
option shall become exercisable for a period of three (3) months after the termination of your
Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant.

d.If your exercise of the option within three (3) months after
termination of your Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant with the Company and
any Affiliate will result in liability under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, then your option will terminate on the earlier of (i) the Expiration Date, (ii) the
tenth (10th) day after the last date on which your exercise would result in such liability or (iii)
six (6) months and ten (10) days after the termination of your Continuous Status as an Employee,
Director or Consultant with the Company and any Affiliate.

exercised during your lifetime only by you or any transferee pursuant to a qualified domestic
