    AGREEMENT:

     

    In
consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein and other
good and valuable consideration paid by the Grantee to the Company, the Grantee
and the Company agree as follows:

     

    
      	
            	
              Section 1.

            	
              Incorporation of
      Plan

            


    

     

    All
provisions of this Award Agreement and the rights of the Grantee hereunder are
subject in all respects to the provisions of the Plan and the powers of the
Board therein provided.  Capitalized terms used in this Award
Agreement but not defined shall have the meaning set forth in the
Plan.

     

    
      	
            	
              Section 2.

            	
              Grant of Performance
      Shares

            


    

     

    As of the
Date of Grant identified above, the Company grants to you, subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, the opportunity to receive that
number of unrestricted Shares identified opposite the heading "Number of
Performance Shares Granted" (the "Performance Shares") on the Notice of
Grant.  All Performance Shares are forfeitable until such time as they
become nonforfeitable as provided herein.  Provided (1) that
performance condition above identified opposite the heading "Performance
Condition Required for Grantee To Receive Award" on the Notice of Grant is
satisfied and (2) you are employed (and at all times since the Date of Grant
have been employed) by the Company on a Full-Time Basis (which, for purposes of
this Award Agreement, means regularly scheduled to work 30 hours or more per
week) and, unless your right to receive the Performance Shares has been
forfeited pursuant to Section 3 below, your Performance Shares will become
nonforeitable and you will be paid a number of unrestricted Shares equal to the
aggregate number of Performance Shares on the date above identified opposite the
heading "Date Payable" on the Notice of Grant.1  For purposes of this Agreement,
except where the Board otherwise determines, a Grantee who, immediately before
taking a Company-approved leave of absence, was employed on a Full-Time Basis
will be considered employed on a Full-Time Basis during the period of such
Company-approved leave.

     

    
      	
            	
              Section 3.

            	
              Effect of Termination
      of Affiliation or Cessation as Full-Time
  Employee

            


    

     

    If you
have a Termination of Affiliation or cease to be employed on a Full-Time Basis
for any reason, including termination by the Company with or without Cause,
voluntary resignation, change in employment status from full-time to part-time,
death, or Disability, the effect of such Termination of Affiliation or ceasing
to be employed on a Full-Time Basis on all or any portion of the Performance
Shares is as provided below.

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (a)

            	
              If
      at the end of the applicable Performance Period, the Performance Condition
      set forth on the Notice of Grant is achieved but you incurred a
      Termination of Affiliation on account of death or Disability, the
      Performance Shares shall thereupon become nonforfeitable and the Company
      shall, promptly settle all Performance Shares by delivery to you (or,
      after your death, to your personal representative or designated
      beneficiary) a number of unrestricted Shares equal to the number of your
      Performance Shares.

            


    

     

    
      
        

      

      1 If on
the Date Payable, the Company has not had sufficient time to make a
determination of whether the applicable performance condition has been
satisfied, the Date Payable may be extended by the Company for up to 90-days
after the original Date Payable.

              (b)

            	
              If
      you have a Termination of Affiliation during the period ("Change of
      Control Period") commencing on a Change of Control and ending on the first
      anniversary of the Change of Control, which Termination of Affiliation is
      initiated by the Company or a Subsidiary other than for Cause, or
      initiated by the Grantee for Good Reason, then your Performance Shares
      that were forfeitable shall thereupon become nonforfeitable and the
      Company shall immediately settle all Performance Shares by delivery to you
      a number of unrestricted Shares equal to the number of your Performance
      Shares.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (c)

            	
              If
      you have a Termination of Affiliation for Cause or for any reason other
      than for death or Disability, or under the circumstances described
      immediately above in Section 3(b), your Performance Shares, to the extent
      forfeitable immediately before such Termination of Affiliation, shall
      thereupon automatically be forfeited and you shall have no further rights
      under this Award Agreement.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (d)

            	
              If
      you cease to be employed on a Full-Time Basis for any reason other than
      for death or Disability, your Performance Shares, to the extent
      forfeitable immediately before such cessation of employment on a Full-Time
      Basis, shall thereupon automatically be forfeited and you shall have no
      further rights under this Award
Agreement.

              Investment
      Intent

            


    

     

    The
Grantee agrees that the Shares acquired pursuant to the vesting of one or more
tranches of Performance Shares shall be acquired for his/her own account for
investment only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
distribution or public offering thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "1933 Act") or other applicable securities laws. If the Board so
determines, any share certificates issued pursuant to this Award Agreement shall
bear a legend to the effect that the Shares have been so
acquired.  The Company may, but in no event shall be required to, bear
any expenses of complying with the 1933 Act, other applicable securities laws or
the rules and regulations of any national securities exchange or other
regulatory authority in connection with the registration, qualification, or
transfer, as the case may be, of this Award Agreement or any Shares acquired
hereunder. The foregoing restrictions on the transfer of the Shares shall be
inoperative if (a) the Company previously shall have been furnished with an
opinion of counsel, satisfactory to it, to the effect that such transfer will
not involve any violation of the 1933 Act and other applicable securities laws
or (b) the Shares shall have been duly registered in compliance with the 1933
Act and other applicable state or federal securities laws. If this Award
Agreement, or the Shares subject to this Award Agreement, are so registered
under the 1933 Act, the Grantee agrees that he will not make a public offering
of the said Shares except on a national securities exchange on which the common
shares of the Company are then listed.

     

    
      	
            	
              Section 5.

            	
              Nontransferability of
      Performance Shares

            


    

     

    No rights
under this Award Agreement relating to the Performance Shares may be sold,
transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated,
including, unless specifically approved by the Company, any purported transfer
to a current spouse or former spouse in connection with a legal separation or
divorce proceeding. All rights with respect to the Performance Shares granted to
the Grantee shall be available during his or her lifetime only to the
Grantee.

              Restrictive
      Covenants

            


    

     

    As a
condition of this Award Agreement, the Grantee's right to the Performance
Shares, and in addition to any restrictive agreements the Grantee may have
entered into with the Company, the Grantee accepts and agrees to be bound as
follows:

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (a)

            	
              Nondisclosure
      of Award Agreement Terms.  The Grantee
      agrees not to disclose or cause to be disclosed at any time, nor authorize
      anyone to disclose any information concerning this Award Agreement except
      (i) as required by law, or (ii) to the Grantee's legal and financial
      advisors who agree to be bound by this Paragraph
  6(a).

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (b)

            	
              Noncompetition.  During
      the Grantee's employment and until one year after the Grantee ceases being
      employed by or acting as a consultant or independent contractor to the
      Company or any Subsidiary, the Grantee will not perform services as an
      employee, director, officer, consultant, independent contractor or
      advisor, or invest in, whether in the form of equity or debt, or otherwise
      have an ownership interest in any company, entity or person that directly
      competes anywhere in the United States, the United Kingdom, Taiwan, or in
      any other location outside the United States, the United Kingdom or Taiwan
      where the Company or a Subsidiary conducts or (to the Grantee's knowledge)
      plans to conduct business.  Nothing in this Section 6(b) shall,
      however, restrict the Grantee from making an investment in and owning up
      to one-percent (1%) of the common stock of any company whose stock is
      listed on a national securities exchange or actively traded in an
      over-the-counter market; provided that such investment does not give the
      Grantee the right or ability to control or influence the policy decisions
      of any direct competitor of the Company or a
  Subsidiary.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (c)

            	
              Noninterference.  During
      the Grantee's employment and until one year after the Grantee ceases being
      employed by or acting as a consultant or independent contractor to the
      Company or any Subsidiary, the Grantee will not, either directly or
      indirectly through another business or person, solicit, entice away, or
      otherwise interfere with any employee, customer, prospective customer,
      vendor, prospective vendor, supplier or other similar business relation or
      (to the Grantee's knowledge) prospective business relation of the Company
      or any Subsidiary.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (d)

            	
              Nonsolicitation.  During
      the Grantee's employment and until one year after the Grantee ceases being
      employed by or acting as a consultant or independent contractor to the
      Company or any Subsidiary, the Grantee will not, either directly or
      indirectly through another business or person, hire, recruit, employ, or
      attempt to hire, recruit or employ, or facilitate any such acts by others,
      any person then currently employed by the Company or any
      Subsidiary.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (e)

            	
              Confidentiality.  The
      Grantee acknowledges that it is the policy of the Company and its
      subsidiaries to maintain as secret and confidential all valuable and
      unique information and techniques acquired, developed or used by the
      Company and its subsidiaries relating to their businesses, operations,
      employees and customers ("Confidential Information").  The
      Grantee recognizes that the Confidential Information is the sole and
      exclusive property of the Company and its subsidiaries, and that
      disclosure of Confidential Information would cause damage to the Company
      and its subsidiaries.  The Grantee shall not at any time
      disclose or authorize anyone else to disclose any Confidential Information
      or proprietary information that (A) is disclosed to or known by the
      Grantee as a result or as a consequence of or through the Grantee's
      performance of services for the Company or any Subsidiary, (B) is not
      publicly or generally known outside the Company and (C) relates in any
      manner to the Company's business.  This obligation will continue
      even though the Grantee's employment with the Company or a Subsidiary may
      have terminated.  This paragraph 6(e) shall apply in addition
      to, and not in derogation of any other confidentiality agreements that may
      exist, now or in the future, between the Grantee and the Company or any
      Subsidiary.

              (f)

            	
              No
      Detrimental Communications.  The Grantee agrees not to
      disclose or cause to be disclosed at any time any untrue, negative,
      adverse or derogatory comments or information about the Company or any
      Subsidiary, about any product or service provided by the Company or any
      Subsidiary, or about prospects for the future of the Company or any
      Subsidiary.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (g)

            	
              Remedy.  The
      Grantee acknowledges the consideration provided herein (absent the
      Grantee's agreement to this Section 6) is more than the Company is
      obligated to pay, and the Grantee further acknowledges that irreparable
      harm would result from any breach of this Section and monetary damages
      would not provide adequate relief or remedy. Accordingly, the Grantee
      specifically agrees that, if the Grantee breaches any of the Grantee's
      obligations under this Section 6, the Company and any Subsidiary shall be
      entitled to injunctive relief therefor, and in particular, without
      limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Company nor any
      Subsidiary shall be precluded from pursuing any and all remedies they may
      have at law or in equity for breach of such obligations.  In
      addition, this Award Agreement and all of Grantee's right hereunder shall
      terminate immediately the first date on which the Grantee engages in such
      activity and the Board shall be entitled on or after the first date on
      which the Grantee engages in such activity to require the Grantee to
      return any Shares obtained by the Grantee's upon vesting of any
      Performance Shares to the Company and to require the Grantee to repay any
      proceeds received at any time from the sale of Shares obtained by the
      Grantee pursuant to the vesting of any Performance Shares (plus interest
      on such amount from the date received at a rate equal to the prime lending
      rate as announced from time to time in The Wall Street
      Journal) and to recover all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses
      incurred in terminating this Award Agreement and recovering such Shares
      and proceeds.

            


    

     

    
      	
            	
              Section 7.

            	
              Status of the
      Grantee

            


    

     

    The
Grantee shall not be deemed a shareholder of the Company with respect to any of
the Shares subject to this Award Agreement until such time as the underlying

    This

recapitalize or otherwise change its capital or debt structure or to merge,
consolidate, convey any or all of its assets, dissolve, liquidate, windup, or
otherwise reorganize.

              Adjustments

            


    

     

    Notwithstanding
any provision herein to the contrary, in the event of any change in the number
of outstanding Shares effected without receipt of consideration therefor by the
Company, by reason of a merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization,
separation, liquidation, stock dividend, stock split, share combination or other
change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares, the
aggregate number and class of Shares subject to this Award Agreement shall be
automatically adjusted to accurately and equitably reflect the effect thereon of
such change; provided, however, that any fractional share resulting from such
adjustment shall be eliminated. In the event of a dispute concerning such
adjustment, the decision of the Board shall be conclusive.

Grantee which specifically states that it is amending this Award Agreement;
provided that this Award Agreement is subject to the power of the Board to amend

Plan, no such amendment shall materially adversely affect the Grantee's rights
under this Award Agreement without the Grantee's consent.

              Withholding

            


    

     

    At the
time the Performance Shares are delivered to you pursuant to this Award
Agreement, the Company will be obligated to pay withholding taxes on your
behalf.  Accordingly, the Company shall have the power to withhold, or
require you to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any such
federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax requirements.  At the
Company's discretion, withholding may be taken from other compensation payable
to you or may be satisfied by reducing the number of Performance Shares
deliverable to you.

    If any
part of this Award Agreement is declared by any court or governmental authority
to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not serve to
invalidate any part of this Award Agreement not declared to be unlawful or
invalid.  Any part so declared unlawful or invalid shall, if possible,
be construed in a manner which gives effect to the terms of such part to the
fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and
valid.  Additionally, if any of the covenants in Section 6 are
determined by a court to be unenforceable in whole or in part because of such
covenant's duration or geographical or other scope, such court shall have the
power to modify the duration or scope of such provision as the case may be, so
as to cause such covenant, as so modified, to be enforceable.
