4. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

Either the Board of Directors or the Committee shall be responsible for the

Subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Committee shall have full
authority to interpret this Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and
regulations relating to it, and to make all other determinations which it
believes to be necessary or advisable in administering this Plan. The
determinations of the Committee on the matters referred to in this section shall

shall be liable for any act or omission in connection with the administration of
this Plan unless it resulted from the member's willful misconduct.

members can hear each other. Any decision or determination by written consent of

by a vote of a majority of the members who participate in a meeting.

6. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

The maximum number of shares of Common Stock as to which Options may be granted
pursuant to this Plan is 20,000 shares. The maximum number of shares of such
Common Stock shall be reduced each year by the grant of Options as provided
herein. If any Option expires or is canceled without being exercised in full,
the number of shares as to which the Option is not exercised will once again
become shares as to which new Options may be granted. The Common Stock that is
issued on exercise of Options may be authorized but unissued shares or shares
that have been issued and reacquired by the Company.

7. PERSONS ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE OPTIONS

Options may be granted only to Employees, as defined in Section 2(i) above.

8. GRANTS OF OPTIONS

         a) IN GENERAL. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Committee shall
have complete discretion to determine when and to which Employees Options are to
be granted, the number of shares of Common Stock as to which Options granted to
each Employee will relate, whether Options granted to an Employee will be
Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Options or partly Incentive Stock
Options and partly Non-Qualified Options and, subject to the limitations in
Sections 9 and 10 below, the Exercise Price and the term of Options granted to
an Employee. Any Options that are not designated as Incentive Stock Options when
they are granted shall be Non-Qualified Options. No grant of an Incentive Stock
Option may be conditioned upon a Non-Qualified Option's having yet been
exercised in whole or in part, and no grant of a Non-Qualified Option may be
conditioned upon an Incentive Stock Option's having not been exercised in whole
or in part.

9. OPTION PROVISIONS

         a) EXERCISE PRICE. The Exercise Price of each Option shall be as
determined by the Committee; provided, however, that in the case of Incentive
Stock Options, the Exercise Price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market
Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant of the Option.

         b) TERM. The term of each Option shall be as determined by the
Committee, but in no event shall the term of an Option (whether or not an
Incentive Stock Option) be longer than ten (10) years from the Date of Grant.

         c) MANNER OF EXERCISE. An Option that has vested pursuant to the terms
of this Plan may be exercised in whole or in part, in increments of a minimum of
100 shares, at any time, or from time to time, during its term. To exercise an
Option, the Employee exercising the Option must deliver to the Company, at its
principal office:

                  i) a written notice of exercise of the Option, which states
the extent to which the Option is being exercised and which is executed by the
Employee;

                  ii) a check in an amount, or Common Stock with a Fair Market
Value, equal to the Exercise Price of the Option times the number of shares
being exercised, or a combination of the foregoing; and

                  iii) a check equal to any withholding taxes the Company is
required to pay as a result of the exercise of the Option by the Employee. If
permitted by the Board of Directors or the Committee, either at the time of the
grant of the Option or the time of

                                       3
<PAGE>

exercise, the Employee may elect, at such time and in such manner as the Board
of Directors or the Committee may prescribe, to satisfy such withholding
obligation by (A) delivering to the Company Common Stock (which in the case of
Common Stock acquired from the Company shall have been owned by the Employee for
at least six months prior to the delivery date) having a fair market value equal
to such withholding obligation, or (B) requesting that the Company withhold from
the shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon the exercise a number of shares
of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to such withholding obligation.

The day on which the Company receives all of the items specified in this
subsection shall be the date on which the Option is exercised to the extent
described in the notice of exercise.

         d) DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES. As promptly as practicable after an
Option is exercised, the Company shall cause the transfer agent to deliver to
the Employee who exercises the Option certificates, registered in that person's
name, representing the number of shares of Common Stock that were purchased by
the exercise of the Option. Unless the Common Stock was issued in a transaction
that was registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), each certificate may bear a legend to indicate that if the
Common Stock represented by the certificate was issued in a transaction that was
not registered pursuant to the Securities Act, and may only be sold or
transferred in a transaction that is registered pursuant to the Securities Act
or is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

         e) VESTING OF OPTIONS. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, the
Options granted hereunder to Employees shall be subject to such conditions as to
vesting as shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, at the Date of Grant of the Option, and the terms of such vesting
shall be clearly set forth in the instrument granting the Option. Upon exercise
of an Option and the delivery the stock certificates as provided herein, the
Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the Option shall not be subject to
forfeiture by the Employee for any reason whatsoever.

         f) NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. During the lifetime of a person to
whom an Option is granted pursuant to this Plan, the Option may be exercised
only by that person or by his or her guardian or legal representative, except to
the extent the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee shall otherwise
determine, whether at the time the option is granted or thereafter, and then
only for estate planning purposes to a trust wherein the option holder is the
trustee, and except to the extent the Board of Directors or the Committee shall
otherwise determine, whether at the time Option is granted or thereafter. An
Option may not be assigned, transferred, sold, pledged or hypothecated in any
way; shall not be subject to levy or execution or disposition under the
Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended, or any other state or federal law granting
relief to creditors, whether now or hereafter in effect; and shall not be
transferable otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The
Company will not recognize any attempt to assign, transfer, sell, pledge,
hypothecate or otherwise dispose of an Option contrary to the provisions of this
Plan, or to levy any attachment, execution or similar process upon any Option
and, except as expressly stated in this Plan, the Company shall not be required
to, and shall not, issue Common Stock on the exercise of an Option to anyone who
claims to have acquired that Option from the person to whom it was granted in
violation of this subsection.

         g) RETIREMENT OF HOLDER OF OPTION. If there is a Termination of
Employment of an Employee to whom an Option has been granted due to Retirement,
each Stock Option held by the retired Employee, whether or not then vested, may
be exercised until the earlier

                                       4
<PAGE>

of: (x) the end of the twenty-four (24) month period immediately following the
date of such Termination of Employment; or (y) the expiration of the term
specified in the Option.

         h) TOTAL DISABILITY OF HOLDER OF OPTION. If there is a Termination of
Employment of an Employee to whom an Option has been granted by reason of his or
her Total Disability, each Option held by the Employee, whether or not then
vested, may be exercised until the earlier of: (x) the end of the twenty-four
(24) month period immediately following the date of such Termination of
Employment; or (y) the expiration of the term specified in the Option.

         i) DEATH OF HOLDER OF OPTION. If there is a Termination of Employment
of an Employee to whom an Option has been granted by reason of (i) his or her
death, or (ii) the death of a former Employee within twenty-four (24) months
following the date of his or her Retirement, or (iii) the death of a former
Employee within twenty-four (24) months following the date of his or her
Termination of Employment by reason of Total Disability, then each Option held
by the person at the time of his or her death, whether or not then vested, may
be exercised by the person or persons to whom the Option shall pass by will or
by the laws of descent and distribution (but by no other persons) until the
earlier of: (x) the end of the twenty-four (24) month period immediately
following the date of death (or such longer period as is permitted by the
Committee); and (y) the expiration of the term specified in the Option,
provided, however, that in no event is the term of the Option to be deemed to
expire prior to the end of three (3) months from the date of death of the
Employee.

         j) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OTHER THAN FOR RETIREMENT, DEATH OR
DISABILITY. Unless the Committee or the Board of Directors states otherwise with
respect to a specific Option, if there is a Termination of Employment of an
Employee to whom an Option has been granted pursuant to this Plan for any reason
other than the Retirement, death or Total Disability of the Employee, then all
Options held by such Employee which are then vested may be exercised until the
earlier of: (x) the twenty-four (24) month period immediately following the date
of such Termination of Employment; or (y) the expiration of the term specified
in the Option.

         k) STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT. As promptly as practicable after an Employee
is granted an Option pursuant to this Plan, the Committee shall send the
Employee a document setting forth the terms and conditions of the grant. The
form of grant document shall be substantially as set forth in Exhibit "A"
attached hereto. Each Option granted pursuant to this Plan must be clearly
identified as to whether it is or is not an Incentive Stock Option and shall set
forth all other terms and conditions relating to the exercise thereof. In the
case of an Incentive Stock Option, the document shall include all terms and
provisions that the Committee determines to be necessary or desirable in order
to qualify the Option as an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of Section
422 of the Code. If an Employee is granted an Incentive Stock Option and a
Non-Qualified Option at the same time, the Committee shall send the Employee a
separate document relating to each of the Incentive Stock Option and the
Non-Qualified Option.

         l) REGISTRATION OF PLAN. The Company shall have no obligations to
register the Plan unless directed to do so by the Board of the Company based on
the Company's best interests.

10. SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS

No Incentive Stock Option may be granted pursuant to this Plan after ten (10)
years from the first to occur of: (i) the date this Plan is adopted by the Board
of Directors; or (ii) the date this Plan is approved by the stockholders of the
Company. No Incentive Stock Option may

                                       5
<PAGE>

be exercised after the expiration of ten (10) years from the Date of Grant or
such shorter period as is provided herein. Notwithstanding Section 8(b) hereof,
Incentive Stock Options may not be granted to an Employee who, at the time the
Option is granted, owns more than ten (10%) percent of the total combined voting
power of the stock of the Company, unless: (i) the purchase price of the Common
Stock pursuant to the Incentive Stock Option is at least 110 percent of the Fair
Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant; and (ii) the Incentive
Stock Option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5)
years from the Date of Grant. The Committee is authorized, pursuant to the last
sentence of Section 422(b) of the Code, to provide at the time an Option is
granted, pursuant to the terms of such Option, that such Option shall not be
treated as an Incentive Stock Option even though it would otherwise qualify as
an Incentive Stock Option. The terms of any Incentive Stock Option granted
hereunder shall, in the hands of any individual grantee thereof, be subject to
the dollar limitations set forth in Section 422(d) of the Code (pertaining to
the $100,000 per year limitation).

11. RECAPITALIZATION

         a) IN GENERAL. If the Company increases the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock through a stock dividend or a stock split, or reduces the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock through a combination of shares or
similar recapitalization then, immediately after the record date for the change:
(i) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of each
outstanding Option granted pursuant to this Plan (whether or not then vested)
shall be increased in the case of a stock dividend or a stock split, or
decreased in the case of a combination or similar recapitalization that reduces
the number of outstanding shares, by a percentage equal to the percentage change
in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as a result of the stock
dividend, stock split, combination or similar recapitalization; (ii) the
Exercise Price of each outstanding Option granted pursuant to this Plan (whether
or not then vested) shall be adjusted so that the total amount to be paid upon
exercise of the Option in full will not change; and (iii) the number of shares
of Common Stock that may be issued on exercise of Options granted pursuant to
this Plan (whether or not then vested) and that are outstanding or remain
available for grant shall be increased or decreased by a percentage equal to the
percentage change in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock. Any
fractional shares will be rounded up to whole shares.

12. RIGHTS OF OPTION HOLDER

         a) STOCKHOLDER. The holder of an Option (whether or not then vested)
shall not have any rights as a stockholder by reason of holding that Option.
Upon exercise of an Option granted pursuant to this Plan, the holder shall be
deemed to acquire the rights of a stockholder when, but not before, the issuance
of Common Stock as a result of the exercise is recorded in the stock transfer
records of the Company.

         b) EMPLOYMENT. Nothing in this Plan or in the grant of an Option shall
confer upon any Employee the right to continue in the employ of the Company or
shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company to
discharge any Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without
cause.

13. LAWS AND REGULATIONS

The obligation of the Company to sell and deliver shares of Common Stock on
vesting and exercise of Options granted pursuant to this Plan shall be subject
to the condition that counsel for the Company be satisfied that the sale and
delivery thereof will not violate the Securities Act or any other applicable
laws, rules or regulations. In addition, the Company

                                       6
<PAGE>

may, as a condition to such sale and delivery, require the Employee to represent
and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the shares are being purchased
only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such
shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is
required pursuant to such securities laws.

14. WITHHOLDING OF TAXES

         a) IN GENERAL. In addition to the requirement set forth in Section 9(c)
above that, in order to exercise an Option granted pursuant to this Plan a
person must make a payment to the Company or authorize withholding in order to
enable the Company to pay any withholding taxes due as a result of the exercise
of that Option, if an Employee who exercised an Incentive Stock Option disposes
of shares of Common Stock acquired through exercise of that Incentive Stock
Option either (x) within two years after the Date of Grant of the Incentive
Stock Option or (y) within one year after the issuance of the shares on exercise
of the Incentive Stock Option then, promptly thereafter, the Employee shall
notify the Company of the occurrence of the event and the amount realized upon
the disposition of such Common Stock by the Employee, and pay any federal, state
and other taxes due as a result thereof.

         b) WITHHOLDING OF TAXES. If, whether because of a disposition of Common
Stock acquired on exercise of an Incentive Stock Option, the exercise of a
Non-Qualified Option or otherwise, the Company becomes required to pay
withholding taxes to any federal, state or other taxing authority and the
Employee fails to provide the Company with the funds with which to pay that
withholding tax, then the Company may withhold, subject to applicable state law,
up to 50% of each payment of salary or bonus to the Employee (which will be in
addition to any other required or permitted withholding), until the Company has
been reimbursed for the entire withholding tax it was required to pay.

15. RESERVATION OF SHARES

The Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance on exercise of Options
granted pursuant to this Plan a number of authorized but unissued or reacquired
shares of Common Stock equal to the maximum number of shares the Company may be
required to issue on exercise of outstanding Options (whether or not then
vested) granted pursuant to this Plan.

16. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

The Board of Directors may, at any time and from time to time, modify or amend
this Plan in any respect effective at any date the Board of Directors
determines; provided, however, that, without the approval of the stockholders of
the Company the Board of Directors may not increase the maximum number of
Incentive Stock Options that may be granted under the Plan. No modification or
amendment of this Plan shall, without the consent of the holder of an
outstanding Option (whether nor not then vested), adversely affect the holder's
rights pursuant to that Option.

17. TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

The Board of Directors may suspend or terminate this Plan at any time or from
time to time, but no such action shall adversely affect the rights of a person
holding an outstanding Option, whether or not then vested, granted pursuant to
this Plan prior to that date.

                                       7
