shall, in exchange for the cancellation of such unexercised Options and to the
extent permissible under applicable law, issue to the Optionee a number of
shares of Common Stock equal to fifty percent (50%) of (i) the product of (1) the

No Options shall be exercisable after such payment is made.]


 


Section 2.03                   Manner of Exercise.  To the extent vested, Optionee may exercise

at such time as established by the Administrator, payment of the exercise price
and payment of any applicable withholding or employment taxes.  The date the Company receives the required
written notice of an exercise hereunder accompanied by payment will be
considered as the date this NQO was exercised. 
Promptly after receipt of the applicable exercise price, the required
income and employment tax withholding, if any and any other documents required
to be executed by the Administrator, the Company shall, issue to the Optionee
or other person entitled to exercise the NQO, the requisite number of NQO Shares
acquired upon exercise of the Option, which such shares may be evidenced in
book form or by a certificate in the discretion of the Administrator.  The Optionee or transferee of the Optionee

agrees to enter into at the request of the Company upon exercise of the Option.


 


Section 3.02                   Legality of Issuance.  The Company shall not be obligated to sell or
issue any NQO Shares pursuant to this Agreement if such sale or issuance, in
the opinion of the Company and the Company’s counsel, might constitute a
violation by the Company of any provision of law, including without limitation
the provisions of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Section 3.04                   Restriction on Transfer.  Regardless whether the sale of the NQO Shares
has been registered under the Securities Act or has been registered or
qualified under the securities laws of any state, the Company may impose
restrictions upon the sale, pledge or other transfer of NQO Shares (including
the placement of appropriate legends on stock certificates) if, in the judgment
of the Company and the Company’s counsel, such restrictions are necessary or
desirable in order to achieve compliance with the provisions of the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act, the securities laws of any state or any other law.


 


Section 3.05                   Stock Certificate Restrictive Legends.  Stock certificates evidencing NQO Shares may

THE TRANSFER, SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR
OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SHARES OF STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS

THE SHARES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, HAVE
BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT FOR RESALE OR DISTRIBUTION, AND MAY NOT
BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNLESS IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY SUCH

Article IV.                              Miscellaneous


 


Section 4.01                   Taxes.  Optionee acknowledges and agrees that
Optionee will be responsible for any taxes arising from exercise of this Option
and that the Company may withhold the amount of such taxes or require the
remittance of such taxes to the Company.


 


Section 4.02                   Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Acknowledgments of Optionee
Upon Exercise of NQO.  Optionee hereby agrees that in the event that
the Company and the Company’s counsel deem it necessary or advisable in the
exercise of their discretion, the issuance of NQO Shares may be conditioned
upon certain representations, warranties and acknowledgments by the person
exercising the NQO (the “Purchaser”), including, without limitation, those set
forth in Sections 4.02 (a) through (h) hereof:


 


(a)   Investment.  Purchaser is acquiring the NQO Shares for
Purchaser’s own account and not for the account of any other person.  Purchaser is acquiring the NQO Shares for
investment and not with a view to distribution or resale thereof except in
compliance with applicable laws regulating securities.


 


(b)   Business Experience.  Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of Purchaser’s investment in the Company evidenced by purchase of the
NQO Shares.


 


(c)   Relation to Company.  Purchaser is presently an officer, director
or employee of, or a consultant to, the Company and in such capacity has become
personally familiar with the business, affairs, financial condition and results
of operations of the Company.


 


(d)   Access to Information.  Purchaser has had the opportunity to ask
questions of, and to receive answers from, appropriate executive officers of
the Company with respect to the terms and conditions of the transaction
contemplated hereby and with respect to the business, affairs, financial
condition and results of operations of the Company.  Purchaser has had access to such financial
and other information as is necessary in order for Purchaser to make a
fully-informed decision as to investment in the Company by way of purchase of
the NQO Shares and has had the opportunity to obtain any additional information
necessary to verify any of such information to which Purchaser has had access.


 


5

















 


(e)   Speculative Investment.  Purchaser’s investment in the Company
represented by the NQO Shares is highly speculative in nature and is subject to
a high degree of risk of loss in whole or in part.  The amount of such investment is within
Purchaser’s risk capital means and is not so great in relation to Purchaser’s
total financial resources as would jeopardize the personal financial needs of
Purchaser or Purchaser’s family in the event such investment were lost in whole
or in part.


 


(f)    Registration.  Purchaser must bear the economic risk of
investment for an indefinite period of time because the sale to Purchaser of
the NQO Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act and the NQO
Shares cannot be transferred by Purchaser unless such transfer is registered
under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is
available.  The Company has made no
agreements, covenants or undertakings whatsoever to register the transfer of
any of the NQO Shares under the Securities Act. 
The Company has made no representations, warranties or covenants
whatsoever as to whether any exemption from the Securities Act, including
without limitation any exemption for limited sales in routine brokers’
transactions pursuant to Rule 144, will be available; if the exemption
under Rule 144 is available at all, it may not be available until at least
two years after payment of cash for the NQO Shares and not then unless: (i) a
public trading market then exists in the Company’s common stock; (ii) adequate
information as to the Company’s financial and other affairs and operations is
then available to the public; and (iii) all other terms and conditions of Rule 144
have been satisfied.


 


(g)   Public Trading.  None of the Company’s securities is presently
publicly traded, and the Company has made no representation, covenant or
agreement as to whether there will be a public market for any of its
securities.


 


(h)   Tax Advice.  The Company has made no warranties or
representations to Purchaser with respect to the income tax consequences of the
transactions contemplated by the option agreement pursuant to which the NQO
Shares will be purchased, and Purchaser is in no manner relying on the Company
or the Company’s representatives for an assessment of such tax consequences.


 


Section 4.03           Assignment; Binding Effect.  Subject to the limitations set forth in this
Agreement, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
executors, administrators, heirs, legal representatives and successors of the
parties hereto; provided, however, that Optionee may not assign any of Optionee’s
rights under this Agreement.


 


Section 4.04           Damages.  Optionee shall be liable to the Company for
all costs and damages, including incidental and consequential damages,
resulting from a disposition of shares which is not in conformity with the
provisions of this Agreement.


 


6

















 


Section 4.05           Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.


 


Section 4.06           Notices.  All notices and other communications under
this Agreement shall be in writing. 
Unless and until the Optionee is notified in writing to the contrary,
all notices, communications and documents directed to the Company at its
corporate headquarters. Unless and until the Company is notified in writing to
the contrary, all notices, communications and documents intended for the
Optionee and related to this Agreement, if not delivered by hand, shall be
