                 2001 MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN

                   RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT


The Plan and The text of the Plan is incorporated in the
Other        Restricted Stock Agreement (this "Agreement") by
Agreements   this reference.  You and the Company agree to
             execute such further instruments and to take such
             further action as may reasonably be necessary to
             carry out the intent of this Agreement.  Unless
             otherwise defined in this Agreement, certain
             capitalized terms used in this Agreement are
             defined in the Plan.

             This Agreement, the attached Exhibits and the Plan
             constitute the entire understanding between you and
             the Company regarding this Award of Restricted
             Stock.  Any prior agreements, commitments or
             negotiations relating to this Agreement are
             superseded.

Award of     The Company awards you the number of shares of
Restricted   Restricted Stock shown on the cover sheet of this
Stock        Agreement.  The Award is subject to the terms and
             conditions of this Agreement and the Plan.

Vesting      Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, so
             long as you are continuously employed as an
             Employee (as such term is defined in the Plan and
             where "Employee" includes being employed by a
             Subsidiary of the Company), you will become vested
             as to one-fifth (1/5) of the total number of shares
             of Restricted Stock awarded, as shown above on the
             cover sheet, on the Vesting Start Date of this
             Agreement.  Thereafter, so long as you are
             continuously employed as an Employee, the
             Restricted Stock vests at the rate of one-fifth
             (1/5) on each anniversary of the Vesting Start Date
             of this Agreement until fully vested.  The
             resulting aggregate number of vested shares will be
             rounded down to the nearest whole number.  However,
             if your continuous employment as an Employee is
             terminated either by (i) the Company (or Parent or
             Subsidiary) without Cause, (ii) Death, (iii)
             Disability, (iv) Retirement (where, for purposes of
             this Agreement, "Retirement" shall mean an
             Employee's termination of employment with the
             Company for any reason (other than due to Death,
             Disability or by the Company for Cause) on or after
             attainment of the age of sixty-two), or (v) you for
             Good Reason, or if there is a Sale of Company (as
             defined below), then any unvested Restricted Stock
             shall be vested in full upon such event.

             Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, in
             the event that your continuous employment as an
             Employee ceases prior to the fifth anniversary of
             the Vesting Start Date, you will forfeit to the
             Company all of the shares of Restricted Stock
             subject to this Award that have not yet vested as
             of the date your continuous employment terminates
             as an Employee.

             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
             Agreement, the Board of Directors, in its sole
             discretion, may at any time accelerate the date
             upon which any or all of this Restricted Stock
             grant is vested.

Escrow       The certificates for the Restricted Stock shall be
             deposited in escrow with the Secretary of the
             Company (or his designee) to be held in accordance
             with the provisions of this paragraph.  Each
             deposited certificate shall be accompanied by a
             duly executed Assignment Separate from Certificate
             in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.  The
             deposited certificates, shall remain in escrow
             until such time as the certificates are to be
             released or otherwise surrendered for cancellation
             as discussed below.  Upon delivery of the
             certificates to the Company, you shall be issued an
             instrument of deposit acknowledging the number of
             shares of Restricted Stock delivered in escrow to
             the Secretary of the Company.

             All regular cash dividends, if any, on the
             Restricted Stock shall be paid directly to you and
             shall not be held in escrow.

             be subject to the following terms and conditions
             relating to their release from escrow or their
             surrender to the Company, provided, however, that
             the minimum number of shares released to you in any
             individual release of share certificates must be at
             least twenty-five (25) shares (unless the release
             represents your final release of share certificates
             from escrow):

                *    When your interest in the Restricted Stock
                  vests, the certificates for such vested Restricted
                  Stock shall be released from escrow and delivered
                  to you, at your request, in accordance with
                  Schedule A attached hereto.

                *    The release of any vested Restricted Stock
                  from escrow shall be effected within thirty (30)

                  shares pursuant to this Agreement.

                  by Death, Disability or Retirement, or if there is
                  a Sale of Company, any unvested Restricted Stock
                  shall become vested and released from escrow within
                  thirty (30) days of the applicable event.  Upon
                  termination of your continuous employment as an
                  Employee for any other reason, any unvested

                (a)    You have engaged in an act or acts of
                  gross misconduct or negligence that have
                  materially harmed or materially damaged the
                  Company.  You will be notified in writing of
                  such misconduct or negligence and such notice
                  will specifically reference potential
                  termination of employment;

                (b)    Your repeated failure to follow the
                  lawful instructions of the Company following
                  written notice.  Such written notice will
                  specifically reference potential termination

                  of your job which has been memorialized in the
                  Company's records and has resulted in material
                  harm or material damage to the Company.

Definition   For purposes of this Agreement, termination of your
of "Good     continuous employment as an Employee by you for
Reason"      "Good Reason" shall mean your resignation as an
             Employee within thirty (30) days after the
             occurrence (without your written consent) of any of
             the following:

                (a)    Any reduction (in the aggregate) in your
                  base salary by more than 25%, unless all
                  similarly situated executives incur the same
                  proportionate reduction in base salary; or

                (b)    A material diminishment in your position,
                  job duties and/or responsibilities.

Code Section You represent and warrant that you understand the
83(b)        Federal, state and local income tax consequences of
Election     the granting of this Restricted Stock.  Under
             Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
             amended (the "Code"), the Fair Market Value of the
             Restricted Stock on the date any forfeiture
             restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock
             lapse will be reportable as ordinary income at that
             time.  For this purpose, "forfeiture restrictions"
             include surrender to the Company of unvested
             Restricted Stock as described above.  You may elect
             to be taxed at the time the Restricted Stock is
             acquired to the extent that the Fair Market Value
             of the Restricted Stock exceeds the amount of
             consideration paid by you (if any) for such
             Restricted Stock at that time rather than when such
             Restricted Stock ceases to be subject to such
             forfeiture restrictions, by filing an election
             under Section 83(b) of the Code with the Internal
             Revenue Service within thirty (30) days after the
             Date of Award.  The form for making this election
             is attached as Exhibit B hereto.  Failure to make
             this filing within the thirty (30) day period will
             result in the recognition of ordinary income by you
             (in the event the Fair Market Value of the
             Restricted Stock increases after the date of
             purchase) as the forfeiture restrictions lapse
             unless you make a valid deferral as described
             below.  YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT IS YOUR SOLE
             RESPONSIBILITY, AND NOT THE COMPANY'S, TO FILE A
             TIMELY ELECTION UNDER CODE SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF
             YOU REQUEST THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO
             MAKE THIS FILING ON YOUR BEHALF.  YOU ARE RELYING
             SOLELY ON YOUR OWN ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE
             DECISION AS TO WHETHER OR NOT TO FILE A CODE
             SECTION 83(b) ELECTION.

Election to  Provided you do not make a Code Section 83(b)
Defer/Stock  election, you may, with Company consent, elect to
Units        convert your right to receive vested shares into an
             unfunded deferred compensation account (the
             "Account").  You must affirmatively elect to make
             such a conversion and you must submit your
             irrevocable election to the Company sufficiently
             prior to the vesting of the shares that you wish to
             convert in accordance with rules and procedures
             that will be prescribed by the Company.  If the
             Company approves your request, then upon the future
             scheduled vesting date of the Shares to be
             converted, such shares shall be surrendered to the
             Company and your Account shall be credited with a
             number of units (the "Stock Units") equal to the
             number of shares that you have requested be
             converted.  You shall be a general unsecured
             creditor with respect to any balance in the
             Account.  The Company shall maintain the accounting
             for the Stock Units in your Account.  The
             accounting value of each Stock Unit shall equal the
             Fair Market Value of a Company common share.  In
             the event that there is any adjustment to the
             Company's Common Stock as provided under Section 8
             in the Plan, then an appropriate and similar
             adjustment shall be made to your Stock Units.  Any
             dividends paid to Company stockholders shall result
             in an appropriate credit to your Account or you
             will receive a cash payment in the amount of the
             dividend.  Your Account shall be paid out in full
             in Shares to you after your continuous employment
             as an Employee is terminated pursuant to the terms
             and conditions of your deferral election.

Leaves of    For purposes of this Agreement, while you are a
Absence      common-law employee, your continuous employment as
             an Employee does not terminate when you go on a
             bona fide leave of absence that was approved by the
             Company (or its Parent or Subsidiary) in writing,
             if the terms of the leave provide for continued
             service crediting, or when continued service
             crediting is required by applicable law.  Your
             continuous employment as an Employee terminates in
             any event when the approved leave ends, unless you
             immediately return to active work.

             The Company determines which leaves count for this
             purpose, and when your continuous employment as an
             Employee terminates for all purposes under this
             Agreement.

             in escrow, including the right to vote and to

             you will not be entitled to any rights and
             privileges of a stockholder for any Stock Units
             other than the right to receive dividends (if any)
             or any other right expressly provided herein.

             outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock
             are increased or decreased or changed into or

             another corporation through reorganization, merger,
             consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification,
             stock split, split-up, combination or exchange of
             shares or declaration of any dividends payable in
             Common Stock, the Board of Directors shall
             appropriately adjust the number of shares of Common
             Stock subject to this Award of Restricted Stock (to
             the nearest whole number) and such adjustments
             shall be effective and binding for all purposes of
             this Award.

             and not to disclose, at any time, all confidential
             matters, proprietary information which relate to
             the Company or any Parent or any Subsidiary or
             affiliate thereof including, without limitation,
             customer lists, trade secrets, internal memoranda,
             policies of the Company and other confidential
             business affairs of the Company and its Parents and
             its Subsidiaries or affiliates thereof and agrees
             not to disclose any of the foregoing information,
             at any time, without the prior written consent of a
             duly authorized officer of the Company.

             You further agree that, for 120 days from the date
             that your employment as an Employee of the Company
             or any Parent or any Subsidiary or affiliate
             thereof ends; (1) You shall not, either directly or
             indirectly, solicit business from any existing or
             prospective customer(s) of the Company or any
             Parent or any Subsidiary or affiliate thereof and
             (2) You shall not, either directly or indirectly,
             agree to hire, solicit or recruit on behalf of your
             new employer, or through your new employer, any
             employee of the Company or any Parent or any
             Subsidiary or affiliate thereof for any job,
             employment or consulting, in the Company's or any
             Parent's or any Subsidiary's or affiliate's
             industry or with any company which competes with
             the Company or any Parent or any Subsidiary or
             affiliate thereof.  For purposes of this paragraph,
             a "prospective customer" includes but is not
             limited to, a person, corporation, partnership or
             other business entity with whom one or more
             financing and/or leasing transactions has been
             discussed within the twelve months prior to
             termination of your employment with the Company, or
             any Parent or any Subsidiary or affiliate thereof.
             The provisions of this representations section
             shall survive any expiration or termination of this
             Agreement.

             The Company may enforce any violation of these
             provisions to the fullest extent permitted under
             law or equity.  You acknowledge that upon a
             material breach of any of these provisions, the
             Company would sustain irreparable harm from such
             breach, and, therefore, you agree that in addition
             to any other remedies which the Company may have
             for any material breach of this Agreement or
             otherwise, the Company shall be entitled to obtain
             equitable relief including specific performance,
             injunctions and restraining you from committing or
             continuing any such violation of this Agreement.
             The Company may apply to any court of competent
             jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order,
             preliminary injunction, or other interim or
             conservatory relief as necessary.

Applicable   This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced
Law          under the laws of the State of New York and
             construed accordingly, including any conflicts or
             choice of law rule or principle that might
             otherwise refer construction or interpretation of
             this Agreement to the substantive law of another
             jurisdiction.  This Agreement may not be amended,
             altered, waived or modified unless it is in writing
             and signed by you and the Chief Financial Officer
             and Secretary.  This Agreement represents the final
             agreement between the parties and may not be
             contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous
             or subsequent oral agreements between the parties.
             The rights and remedies of the Company, its
             Parents, its Subsidiaries and affiliates hereunder
             shall be cumulative and not alternative.  No delay
             or failure on the part of the Company, its Parents
             or its Subsidiaries or its affiliates in exercising
             any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of
             such or of any other rights.  If any term,
             provision, covenant or restriction of this
             Agreement is held by a court of competent
             jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or
             unenforceable, the remainder of the terms,
             provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth
             herein shall remain in full force and effect and
             shall in no way be affected, impaired or
             invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their
             best efforts to find and employ an alternative
             means to achieve the same or substantially the same
             result as that contemplated by such term,
             provision, covenant or restriction.  It is hereby
             stipulated and declared to be the intention of the
             parties that they would have executed the remaining
             terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions
             without including any of such that may be hereafter
             declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
             YOU HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY
             IN ANY LITIGATION, ACTION, CAUSE OF ACTION,
             COUNTERCLAIM, CASE, ARBITRATION OR PROCEEDING
             BETWEEN YOU AND THE COMPANY, ITS PARENTS OR ITS
             SUBSIDIARIES OR AFFILIATES.
