<PAGE>


                  If an Option should expire or become unexercisable for any
reason without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased Shares which were
subject thereto shall, unless the Plan shall have been terminated, become
available for issuance on exercise of future options granted under the Plan. If
Shares which were acquired upon exercise of an Option are subsequently
repurchased by the Company, such Shares shall not in any event be returned to
the Plan and shall not become available for future grant under the Plan.

         4. ADMINISTRATION OF AND GRANTS OF OPTIONS UNDER THE PLAN.

         4.01 Administrator. Except as otherwise required herein, the Plan shall
be administered by the Board.

         4.02 Procedure for Grants. All grants of Options hereunder shall be
automatic and nondiscretionary and shall be made strictly in accordance with the
following provisions:

                  (a) No person shall have any discretion to select which
         Outside Directors shall be granted Options or to determine the number
         of Shares to be covered by Options granted to Outside Directors.

                  (b) Each Outside Director shall be automatically granted an
         Option (an "Initial Grant") to purchase 12,000 Shares on the date on
         which such person first becomes a Director, whether through election by
         the shareholders of the Company or appointment by the Board of
         Directors to fill a vacancy. Options granted under this Section 4.02(b)
         shall become vested and thereby exercisable with respect to 331/3% of
         such Initial Grant six months after the date of such Initial Grant,
         with respect to an additional 331/3% of the initial Grant twelve (12)
         months after the date of the Initial Grant and with respect to the
         remaining 331/3% of the Initial Grant twenty-four (24) months after the
         date of the Grant; provided, however, any unvested portion of an
         Initial Grant shall vest only if the Outside Director remains a
         Director on the date such portion vests.

                  (c) Each Outside Director shall automatically receive, on the
         date of each Annual Meeting of Shareholders, an Option to purchase
         3,000 Shares of the Company's Common Stock, such Option to become
         exercisable six (6) months subsequent to the date of grant; provided
         however, that such Option shall only be granted to Outside Directors
         who have served since the date of the last Annual Meeting of
         Shareholders and will continue to serve after the date of grant of such
         Option.

                  (d) The terms of an Option granted hereunder shall be as
         follows:

                           (i) the term of the Option shall be ten (10) years
                  from the date the Option is granted.

                           (ii) the Option shall be exercisable only while the
                  Outside Director remains a Director of the Company, except as
                  set forth in Section 7 hereof.

                           (iii) the exercise price per Share shall be 100 % of
                  the fair market value per Share on the date of grant of the
                  Option.

         4.03 Powers of the Board. Subject to the provisions and restrictions of
the Plan, the Board shall have the authority, in its discretion: (i) to
determine, upon review of relevant information and in accordance with Section
6.02 of the Plan, the fair market value of the Common Stock; (ii) to determine
the exercise price per share of Options to be granted, which exercise price
shall be determined in accordance with Section 6.01 of the Plan; (iii) to
interpret the Plan; (iv) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations
relating to the Plan; (v) to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the
Company any instrument required to effectuate the grant of an Option previously
granted hereunder; and (vi) to make all other determinations deemed necessary or
advisable for the administration of the Plan.

         4.04 Effect of Board's Decision. All decisions, determinations and
interpretations of the Board shall be final and binding on all Optionees and any
other holders of any Options granted under the Plan.


                                       2

         5. ELIGIBILITY. Options may be granted only to Outside Directors. All
Options shall be automatically granted in accordance with the terms set forth in
Section 4.02 hereof.

                  The Plan does not confer upon any Optionee any right with
respect to continuation of service as a Director or nomination to serve as a
Director, nor shall it interfere in any way with any rights which a Director of
the Company may have to terminate his or her directorship at any time.

         6. EXERCISE PRICE AND CONSIDERATION.

         6.01. Exercise Price. The per Share exercise price for the Shares to be
issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be 100% of the fair market value
per Share on the date of grant of the Option.

         6.02. Determination of Fair Market Value. If, at any time fair market
value of Common Stock is to be determined, the Company's Common Stock is
publicly traded, then "fair market value" shall, for purposes of this Plan,
mean:

                  (a) the average (on that date) of the high and low prices of
         the Common Stock on the principal national securities exchange on which
         the Common Stock is traded, if the Common Stock is then traded on a
         national securities exchange; or

                  (b) the last reported sale price (on that date) of the Common
         Stock on the NASDAQ National Market List, if the Common Stock is not
         then traded on a national securities exchange; or

                  (c) the closing bid price (or average of bid prices) of the
         Common Stock last quoted (on that date) by an established quotation
         service for over-the-counter securities, if the Common Stock is not
         then traded on a national securities exchange or reported on the NASDAQ
         National Market List.

However, if the Common Stock is not publicly traded at the time fair market
value of Common Stock is to be determined, "fair market value" shall be deemed
to be the fair value of the Common Stock as determined by the Committee after
taking into consideration all factors in good faith it deems appropriate,
including, without limitation, recent sale and offer prices of the Common Stock
in private transactions negotiated at arm's length.

         6.03. Form of Consideration. Subject to compliance with applicable
provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, (or other applicable law), the
consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of any
Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Board and
may consist entirely of (i) cash, (ii) check, (iii) other Shares which have a
fair market value on the date of exercise equal to the aggregate exercise price
of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised, (iv) authorization for
the Company to retain from the total number of Shares as to which the Option is
exercised that number of Shares having a fair market value on the date of
exercise equal to the exercise price for the total number of Shares as to which
the Option is exercised, (v) delivery of a properly executed exercise notice
together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the
Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds required to pay the exercise price,
(vi) delivery of an irrevocable subscription agreement for the Shares which
irrevocably obligates the option holder to take and pay for the Shares not more
than twelve months after the date of delivery of the subscription agreement,
(vii) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment, or (viii) such other
consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares as may be
permitted under applicable laws.

         7. EXERCISE OF OPTION.

         7.01. Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder. Any Option
granted hereunder shall become exercisable at such times as set forth in Section
4.02 hereof.

                  An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

                  An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice
of such exercise has been give to the Company in accordance with the terms of
the Option by the person entitled to exercise the Option and full payment for
the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised has been received by
the


                                       3
<PAGE>


Company. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment
determined by the Board and allowable under Section 6.03 of the Plan.

                  Until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on
the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company)
of the stock certificate evidencing such Shares, no right to vote or receive
dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the
Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. A share certificate
for the number of Shares so acquired shall be issued to the Optionee as soon as
practicable after exercise of the Option. No adjustment will be made for a
dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the stock
certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 9 of the Plan.

                  Exercise of an Option in any manner shall result in a decrease
in the number of Shares which thereafter may be available, both for purposes of
the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the
Option is exercised.

         7.02. Termination of Status as a Director. If an Outside Director
ceases to serve as a Director, he or she may, but only within five (5) years
after the date he or she ceases to be a Director of the Company, exercise his or
her Option to the extent that he or she was entitled to exercise it on the last
day of his or her service as a Director; provided, however, that in no event may
an Option be exercised after the expiration of the term of the Option set forth
in Section 4.02(d)(i). To the extent that an Outside Director was not entitled
to exercise an Option on the date the Outside Director ceases to be a Director
of the Company, or if he or she does not exercise such option (which he or she
was entitled to exercise) within the time specified herein, the Option shall
terminate.

         8. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. The Option may not be sold, pledged,
assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by
will or by the laws of descent and distribution and may be exercised, during the
lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee.

         9. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION, DISSOLUTION OR MERGER.

         9.01. Changes in Capitalization. In the event that the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company is changed by a stock
dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination, reclassification or
similar change in the capital structure of the Company without consideration,
the number of Shares available under this Plan and the number of Shares subject
to outstanding Options and the exercise price per share of such Options shall be
proportionately adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or
shareholders of the Company and compliance with applicable securities laws;
provided however, that no certificate or scrip representing fractional shares
shall be issued upon exercise of any Option and any resulting fractions of a
Share shall be ignored. Such adjustment shall be made by the Board, whose
determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive.

         9.02. Dissolution or Merger. In the event of a dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, a merger in which the Company is not the surviving
corporation, a transaction or series of related transactions in which one
hundred percent (100%) of the then outstanding voting stock is sold or otherwise
transferred, or the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, any
or all outstanding Options shall, notwithstanding any contrary terms of the
written agreement governing such Option, accelerate and become exercisable in
full at least ten days prior to (and shall expire on) the consummation of such
dissolution, liquidation, merger or sale of stock or sale of assets on such
conditions as the Board shall determine unless the successor corporation assumes
the outstanding Options or substitutes substantially equivalent options.

         10. TIME OF GRANTING OPTIONS. The date of grant of an Option shall, for
all purposes be the date determined in accordance with Section 4.02 hereof.
Notice of the determination shall be given to each Outside Director to whom an
Option is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

         11. ADOPTION, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.

         11.01 Adoption. This Plan was adopted by the Board and approved by the
shareholders of the Company on March 6, 1997.


                                       4
<PAGE>


         11.02. Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend,
alter, suspend, or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration,
suspension, or discontinuance shall be made which would impair the rights of any
Optionee under any grant theretofore made, without his or her consent.

         11.03. Effect of Amendment and Termination. Any such amendment or
termination of the Plan shall not affect Options already granted and such
Options shall remain in full force and effect as if this Plan had not been
amended or, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Optionee and the Board,
which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Optionee and the Company.

         12. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES. Shares shall not be issued
pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option and the
issuance and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all
relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, state securities laws, and the requirements of any stock exchange
upon which the Shares may then be listed, and shall be further subject to the
approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

                  As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Company may
require the person exercising such Option 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 by any of
the aforementioned relevant provisions of law.

                  The inability of the Company, as determined by the Company's
counsel, to lawfully issue and sell any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the
Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares.

         13. RESERVATION OF SHARES. The Company, during the term of this Plan,
will at all times reserve and keep available such number of the Shares available
for issuance pursuant to this Plan as shall be sufficient to satisfy the
requirements of the Plan.

         14. OPTION AGREEMENT. Options shall be evidenced by written option
agreements in such form as the Board shall approve.
