in the Plan and stop payroll deductions at any time by filing a notice
of cessation of participation on such form and at such time in advance

                       Stock Purchase and Resale

Sec. 3.01  Reservation of Shares.  There shall be 750,000 shares of
Stock reserved for issuance or transfer under the Plan, subject to
adjustment in accordance with Section 4.02.  Except as provided in
Section 4.02, the aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be
purchased under the Plan shall not exceed the number of shares of Stock
reserved under the Plan.

Sec. 3.02  Limitation on Shares Available.

      (a) The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be purchased
for each Participant on a Purchase Date is the lesser of (a) the number
of whole shares of Stock that can be purchased by applying the full
balance of the Participant's withheld funds to the purchase of shares
of Stock at the Purchase Price, or (b) the Participant's proportionate
part of the maximum number of shares of Stock available under the Plan,
as stated in Section 3.01.

      (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any person entitled to
purchase shares pursuant to any offering under the Plan would be deemed
for purposes of section 423(b)(3) of the Code to own stock (including
any number of shares of Stock that such person would be entitled to
purchase under the Plan) possessing five percent or more of the total
combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of Company, the
maximum number of shares of Stock that such person shall be entitled to
purchase pursuant to the Plan shall be reduced to that number which,
when added to the number of shares of stock that such person is deemed
to own (excluding any number of shares of Stock that such person would
be entitled to purchase under the Plan), is one less than such five
percent.  Any amounts withheld from a Participant's compensation that
cannot be applied to the purchase of Stock by reason of the foregoing
limitation shall be returned to the Participant as soon as practicable.

      (c) A Participant may not purchase shares of Stock having an
aggregate Market Value of more than $25,000, determined at the
beginning of each Purchase Period, for any calendar year in which one
or more offerings under this Plan are outstanding at any time, and a
Participant may not purchase a share of Stock under any offering after
the expiration of the Purchase Period for the offering.

Sec. 3.03  Purchase Price of Shares.

      (a) Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the Purchase Price
per share of the Stock to be sold to Participants under the Plan shall
be the lower of:

          (i) 85% of the Market Value of such share on the first day of
the Purchase Period, or

          (ii) 85% of the Market Value of such share on the Purchase
Date.

      (b) The Committee may determine that the Purchase Price shall be
the Market Value, or a percentage of the Market Value, on either of the
first day of the Purchase Period or the Purchase Date, or the lower of
such values, so long as the percentage shall not be lower than 85% of
such Market Value.

Sec. 3.04  Exercise of Purchase Privilege.

      (a) As of the first day of each Purchase Period, each Participant
shall be granted an option to purchase shares of Stock at the Purchase
Price specified in Section 3.03.  The option shall continue in effect
through the Purchase Date for the Purchase Period.  Subject to the
provisions of Section 3.02 above, on each Purchase Date, the
Participant shall automatically be deemed to have exercised his or her
option to purchase shares of Stock, unless he or she notifies the
Committee, in such manner and at such time in advance of the Purchase
Date as the Committee shall prescribe, of his or her desire not to make
such purchase.

      (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.02, there shall be
purchased for the Participant on each Purchase Date, at the Purchase
Price for the Purchase Period, the largest number of whole shares of
Stock as can be purchased with the amounts withheld from the
Participant's Compensation during the Purchase Period.  Each such
purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the Purchase Date
occurring at the close of the Purchase Period for which the purchase
was made.  Any amounts that are withheld from a Participant's
Compensation in a Purchase Period and that remain after the purchase of
whole shares of Stock on a Purchase Date will be held in the
Participant's account, without interest, and applied on the
Participant's behalf to purchase Stock on the next Purchase Date.

Sec. 3.05  Payroll Deductions.  Each Participant shall authorize
payroll deductions from his or her Compensation for the purpose of
funding the purchase of Stock pursuant to his or her Purchase
Agreement.  In the Purchase Agreement, each Participant shall authorize
an after-tax payroll deduction from each payment of Compensation during
the Purchase Period of an amount not less than $25 per paycheck ($50
for any Participant on a monthly payroll period) and not more than 10%
of such Participant's Compensation.  A Participant may change the
deduction to any permissible level effective as of any Election Date.
A change shall be made by filing with the Committee a notice in such
form and at such time in advance of the Election Date on which the
change is to be effective as the Committee shall prescribe.

Sec. 3.06  Payment for Stock.  The Purchase Price for all shares of
Stock purchased by a Participant under the Plan shall be paid out of
the Participant's authorized payroll deductions.  All funds received or
held by the Company under the Plan are general assets of the Company,
shall be held free of any trust or other restriction, and may be used
for any corporate purpose.

Sec. 3.07  Share Ownership; Issuance of Certificates.

      (a) The shares of Stock purchased by a Participant on a Purchase
Date shall, for all purposes, be deemed to have been issued or sold at
the close of business on the Purchase Date.  Prior to that time, none
of the rights or privileges of a shareholder of the Company shall inure
to the Participant with respect to such shares of Stock.  All the
shares of Stock purchased under the Plan shall be delivered by the
Company in a manner as determined by the Committee.

      (b) The Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine that
shares of Stock shall be delivered by (i) issuing and delivering to the
Participant a certificate for the number of shares of Stock purchased
by the Participant, (ii) issuing and delivering certificates for the
number of shares of Stock purchased to a firm which is a member of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, as selected by the
Committee from time to time, which shares shall be maintained by such
firm in a separate brokerage account for each Participant, or (iii)
issuing and delivering certificates for the number of shares of Stock
purchased by Participants to a bank or trust company or affiliate
thereof, as selected by the Committee from time to time, which shares
may be held by such bank or trust company or affiliate in street name,
but with a separate account maintained by such entity for each
Participant reflecting such Participant's share interests in the Stock.
Each certificate or account, as the case may be, may be in the name of
the Participant or, if he or she so designates on the Participant's
Purchase Agreement, in the Participant's name jointly with the
Participant's spouse, with right of survivorship, or in such other form
as the Committee may permit.

      (c) The Committee, in its sole discretion, may impose such
restrictions or limitations as it shall determine on the resale of
Stock, the issuance of individual stock certificates or the withdrawal
from any shareholder accounts established for a Participant.

      (d) If, under Section 3.07(b), certificates for Stock are held
for the benefit of the Participant, any dividends payable with respect
to shares of Stock credited to a shareholder account of a Participant
will, at the Participant's election, either be (i) reinvested in shares
of Stock and credited to the Participant's account or (ii) paid
directly to the Participant.  If dividends are reinvested in shares of
Stock, such reinvestment shall be made based on the Market Value of the
Stock at the date of the reinvestment, with no discount from Market
Value.

Sec. 3.08  Distribution of Shares or Resale of Stock.

      (a) A Participant may request a distribution of shares of Stock
purchased for the Participant under the Plan or order the sale of such
shares at any time by making a request in such form and at such time as
the Committee shall prescribe.

      (b) If a Participant terminates his or her employment with the
Employer or otherwise ceases to be an Eligible Employee, the
Participant shall receive a distribution of his or her shares of Stock
held in any shareholder account established pursuant to Section
3.07(b), unless the Participant elects to have the shares of Stock sold
in accordance with such procedures as the Committee shall prescribe.

      (c) If a Participant is to receive a distribution of shares of
Stock, or if shares are to be sold, the distribution or sale shall be
made in whole shares of Stock.  Any brokerage commissions resulting
from a sale of Stock shall be deducted from amounts payable to the
Participant.

                         Special Adjustments

Sec. 4.01  Shares Unavailable.  If, on any Purchase Date, the aggregate
funds available for the purchase of Stock would purchase a number of
shares in excess of the number of shares of Stock then available for
purchase under the Plan, the following events shall occur:

      (a) The number of shares of Stock that would otherwise be
purchased by each Participant shall be proportionately reduced on the
Purchase Date in order to eliminate such excess; and

      (b) The Plan shall automatically terminate immediately after the
Purchase Date as of which the supply of available shares is exhausted.

Sec. 4.02  Anti-Dilution Provisions.  The aggregate number of shares of
Stock reserved for purchase under the Plan, as provided in Section
3.01, the maximum number of shares that may be purchased by a
Participant as provided in Section 3.02(b), and the calculation of the
Purchase Price per share may be appropriately adjusted by the Committee
to reflect any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of
Stock resulting from a subdivision or consolidation of shares or other
capital adjustment, or the payment of a stock dividend, or other
increase or decrease in such shares, if effected without receipt of
consideration by the Company.

Sec. 4.03  Effect of Certain Transactions.  Subject to any required
action by the shareholders, if the Company shall be the surviving
corporation in any merger or consolidation, any offering hereunder

or of a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the
surviving corporation, the Plan and any offering hereunder shall
terminate upon the effective date of such dissolution, liquidation,
merger or consolidation, unless the Board determines otherwise, and the
balance of any amounts withheld from a Participant's Compensation which
have not by such time been applied to the purchase of Stock shall be
returned to the Participant.

Participant.  If a Participant dies, unless the executor, administrator
or other personal representative of the deceased Participant directs
otherwise, any amounts previously withheld from the Participant's
Compensation during the Purchase Period in which the Participant dies
shall be used to purchase Stock on the Purchase Date for the Purchase

      (a) All acquisitions and sales of Stock under the Plan shall be

applied to the purchase of Stock shall be refunded to the Participant.

Sec. 5.08  No Employment Rights.  Participation in the Plan shall not

that the Participant acquires under the Plan.

of the Plan shall be deemed severable.  In the event any such provision
is determined to be unlawful or unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction or by reason of a change in an applicable statute, the
Plan shall continue to exist as though such provision had never been
included therein (or, in the case of a change in an applicable statute,
had been deleted as of the date of such change).  The Plan shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Maryland to the extent such laws
are not in conflict with, or superseded by, federal law.
