                                  ARTICLE III.
                                  PARTICIPATION

                           PAYMENT OF DIRECTOR'S FEES

         4.1. General. The Director's Retainer Fee Payment shall be paid to each
Non-Employee Director, as of each Payment Date, as set forth in the Plan and
subject to such other payment policies and procedures as the Board may establish
from time to time. If, for the applicable Compensation Year, a Non-Employee
Director has not made an election pursuant to Section 4.2 to receive Stock
Options or Common Stock in lieu of at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the
Director's Retainer Fee Payment, then seventy-five percent (75%) of such
Director's Retainer Fee Payment shall be paid in cash and twenty-five percent
(25%) of the Director's Retainer Fee Payment shall be paid in the form of Common
Stock.

         4.2. Non-Employee Director Notice. A Non-Employee Director may file
with the Secretary of the Company or other designee of the Board of Directors
prior to the commencement of a Compensation Year a Non-Employee Director Notice
making an election to receive either twenty-five percent (25%), fifty percent
(50%), seventy-five percent (75%) or one hundred (100%) of his or her Director's
Retainer Fee Payment in the form of Stock Options and/or Common Stock with the
balance to be paid in cash. If a Director does not timely file an election, he
or she shall receive twenty-five percent (25%) of the Director's Retainer Fee
Payment in Common Stock and seventy-five percent (75%) in cash. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, elections to receive Common Stock or Stock Options may be made at
any time during a Compensation Year so long as such elections are made
irrevocably in advance of receiving the corresponding Common Stock or Stock
Options and approved in accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.

         4.3 Conversion of Retainer Fee Payment to Shares. Each Non-Employee
Director who pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2 is to receive Common Stock as all or
part of his or her Director's Retainer Fee Payment with respect to a
Compensation Year and who is elected or reelected or is a continuing
Non-Employee Director as of the date of commencement of such Compensation Year
as of the applicable Payment Date, shall receive as of each Payment Date during
such Compensation Year a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing (i) the amount of the Director's Retainer Fee Payment to be
paid in the form of Common Stock by (ii) the Fair Market Value of the Common
Stock per share on such Payment Date. Cash shall be paid in lieu of any
fractional shares.

         4.4 Stock Options

         (a) Annual Option Grants. An Annual Option covering 2,000 shares of
Common Stock shall be granted to each Non-Employee Director on the Effective
Date, subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company. Thereafter, an
Annual Option covering 2,000 shares of Common Stock will be granted to each
Non-Employee Director automatically at the conclusion of each Company Annual
Meeting. If, after the Effective Date, a director first becomes a Non-Employee
Director on a date other than an Annual Meeting date, an Annual Option covering
2,000 shares of Common Stock will be granted to such director on his or her
first date of Board service. The purchase price of the Common Stock covered by
each Annual Option will be the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as
of the date of grant of the Annual Option.

         (b) Retainer Fees Options. Retainer Fee Options will be granted on the
Payment Dates of each Compensation Year. The number of shares of Common Stock to
be subject to a Retainer Fee Option shall be equal to the nearest number of
whole shares determined by multiplying the Fair Market Value of a share of
Company Common Stock on the date of grant by 0.3333 and dividing the result into
the applicable portion of the Director's Retainer Fee Payment elected to be
received as Stock Options by the Non-Employee Director for the Compensation
Year. The purchase price of each share covered by each Retainer Fee Option shall
be equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of
grant of the Retainer Fee Option multiplied by 0.6666.

         (c) Duration and Exercise of Stock Options. Subject to Section 4.4(f)
below, Annual Options and Retainer Fee Options become exercisable on the first
anniversary of the date on which they were granted. Stock Options shall
terminate upon the expiration of ten years from the date of grant. No Stock
Option may be exercised for a fraction of a share and no partial exercise of any
Stock Option may be for less than one hundred (100) shares.

         (d) Purchase Price. The purchase price for the shares shall be paid in
full at the time of exercise (i) in cash or by check payable to the order of the
Company, (ii) by delivery of shares of Common Stock of the Company already owned
by, and in the possession of Stock Option holder, or (iii) by delivering a
properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a
broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to
pay the Stock Option price (in which case the exercise will be effective upon
receipt of such proceeds by the Company). Shares of Common Stock used to satisfy
the exercise price of a Stock Option shall be valued at their Fair Market Value
on the date of exercise.

         (e) Transferability. Stock Options granted hereunder shall not be
transferable, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and
shall be exercisable during a Stock Option holder's lifetime only by the Stock
Option holder or by his or her guardian or legal representative, except to the
extent transfer is permitted by Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act
and approved by the Board or its designee.  Subject



                                       5
<PAGE>   6
to the foregoing, Stock Options shall not be assigned, pledged or otherwise
encumbered by the holder thereof, either voluntarily or by operation of law.

         (f) Termination of Directorship. If a director ceases to be a director
of the Company for any reason other than death or removal by the Board of
Directors or the stockholders, the director's Stock Options shall continue to
vest as provided in Section 4.4 (c) above and the right of the Optionee to
exercise such Stock Options shall continue until the options expire in
accordance with Section 4.4(c). In no event may a Stock Option be exercised
after the expiration of the period specified in Section 4.4(c). In the event of
death of a director or former director who holds an outstanding Stock Option,
all unvested Stock Options shall automatically become fully vested as of the
date of death and the right of his or her estate or beneficiary to exercise the
Stock Options shall terminate upon the expiration of twelve months from the date
of death, but in no event may a Stock Option be exercised after the expiration
of the Option Period. In the event of removal of a director from the Board of
Directors, all rights of such director in a Stock Option that the director was
entitled to exercise on the date of removal shall terminate on the 30th day (or,
if such day is not a business day, on the next business day) after the date of
removal, but in no event may such Stock Options be exercised after the
expiration of the Option Period.

                                   ARTICLE V.
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         5.1. Adjustments Upon Changes in Common Stock. The number and kind of
shares available for issuance under the Plan, and the number and kind of shares
subject to, and the exercise price of, outstanding Stock Options, shall be
appropriately adjusted to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights by reason of
any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares,
recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other change in capitalization with a
similar substantive effect upon the Plan or the shares issuable under the Plan.

         5.2. Amendment and Termination. The Board shall have complete power and
authority to amend the Plan at any time; provided, however, that the Board shall
not, without the affirmative approval of the shareholders of the Company, make
any amendment which requires shareholder approval under any applicable law or
regulation of a national stock exchange on which the Common Stock is traded. The
Board shall have the right and the power to terminate the Plan at any time. No
amendment or termination of the Plan may, without the consent of the
Non-Employee Director, adversely affect the right of such Non-Employee Director
with respect to any Stock Options then outstanding.

         5.3. Requirements of Law. The issuance of Common Stock under the Plan
shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such
approval by governmental agencies as may be required.

         5.4. No Guarantee of Membership. Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon
a



                                       6
<PAGE>   7

Non-Employee Director any right to continue to serve as a Director.

         5.5 Construction. Words of any gender used in the Plan shall be
construed to include any other gender, unless the context requires otherwise.

         5.6 Governing Law. This Plan shall be governed by, construed and
interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard
to its principles of conflict of law, as to all matters, including matters of
validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies.
