                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

      THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is entered into as of the
26th day of September, 2005, by and among Gales Industries Incorporated, a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Air Industries Machining, Corp., a New
York corporation (the "Subsidiary"), and Dario Peragallo, a resident of the
State of New York ("Executive"). The Company and the Subsidiary are sometimes
referred to herein jointly as the "Employer".

      WHEREAS, the Employer wishes to employ Executive on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement, and Executive wishes to be retained and
employed by the Employer on such terms and conditions.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the respective
undertakings of the Employer and Executive set forth below, the Employer and
Executive hereby agree as follows:

      1. Employment. The Employer hereby employs Executive, and Executive hereby
accepts such employment and agrees to perform services for the Employer, for the
period and on the other terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement.

      2. Term. Unless terminated at an earlier date in accordance with the
provisions of Section 6 of this Agreement, the initial term of Executive's
employment hereunder shall be a period of five (5) years commencing on the
effective date (the "Effective Date") of the Company's acquisition of the shares
of the Subsidiary (the "Initial Term"). This Agreement shall be automatically
extended for successive three (3) one year periods (each, a "Renewal Term", and
together with the Initial Term, the "Term") unless (i) any party objects to such
extension by no less than ninety (90) days' prior written notice to the other
parties at any time prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or a Renewal
Term, as the case may be, or (ii) this Agreement is terminated at an earlier

      3. Position and Duties.

            3.01 Service with the Employer. The Employer hereby employs
Executive in an executive capacity during the Term with the title of Executive
Vice President of Manufacturing and Production of the Subsidiary, and Executive
hereby accepts such employment and undertakes and agrees to serve in such
capacities during the Term. In addition, the Company agrees to use its best
efforts to cause Executive to be elected as a member of the Boards of Directors
of both the Company and the Subsidiary. In such capacities, Executive shall have
such powers, perform such duties and fulfill such responsibilities typically
associated with such positions in other publicly held companies.

            3.02 Performance of Duties. Executive agrees to serve Employer to
the best of his ability and to devote his full time, attention and efforts to
the business and affairs of the Employer during the Term. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Executive shall not be precluded from accepting service as a director
of other businesses or community organizations or from the management of his
investments, provided, however, that any such business shall not be competitive
with the Company and such service shall not detract from Executive's performance
or time commitment hereunder. Executive shall report directly to the Executive
Chairman and the Board of Directors of the Company and to the Board of Directors
of the Subsidiary, as the case may be.

            3.03 Key-man Life Insurance. Should the Company determine to obtain
key-man life insurance payable to the Company in the event of the death of
Executive, Executive agrees to cooperate with such effort.

      4. Compensation.

            4.01 Base Salary. As base compensation for all services to be
rendered by Executive under this Agreement, the Company shall pay to Executive
an annual base salary, which annual base salary shall be $230,000 per year for
the initial twelve-month period of the Term (as adjusted pursuant to this
Section 4.01, the "Base Salary"), which Base Salary shall be paid on a weekly
basis in accordance with the Company's normal payroll procedures and policies,
subject to applicable deductions as required by law. The amount of the
Executive's Base Salary (a) shall be reviewed annually by the Board of Directors
of the Company, (b) shall be increased annually from the amount of the Base
Salary paid to Executive during the prior twelve-month period (each, a "Prior
Period") of the Term on the basis, inter alia, of the profitability and
performance of the Company, on a consolidated basis, during such Prior Period
(as compared to the profitability and performance of the Company, on a
consolidated basis, during the twelve-month period prior to such Prior Period),
which increase shall in no event be less than five percent (5%) of the amount of
the Base Salary paid to Executive during such Prior Period, provided that
Operating Profits during such Prior Period are at least five percent (5%)
greater than the Operating Profits during the twelve-month period prior to such
Prior Period and (c) shall under no circumstance be reduced from the amount of
the Base Salary paid to Executive during the applicable Prior Period. "Operating
Profits" means the consolidated net income during the applicable period, as
reported on the Company's consolidated financial statements, plus current
interest expense, noncash expenses related to any employee stock ownership plan
established by the Company, provisions for taxes based on income, any
extraordinary losses for such period, minus any extraordinary gains for such
period, but without adjustment for any noncash income or noncash charges which
are classified as such under generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States (other than noncash expenses related to any employee stock
ownership plan established by the Company).

            4.02 Annual Bonus. In addition to Base Salary, the Company shall pay
to Executive an annual bonus. The amount of the annual bonus to be paid to
Executive with respect to any twelve-month period during the Term shall be
determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, provided,
however, that the amount of such annual bonus shall be reasonably predicated on
Executive's performance and the achievement by the Company of its operating
targets as set forth in the applicable budget adopted by the Board of Directors
of the Company in consultation with Executive. In addition, Executive shall
participate in all other bonus programs that Employer may adopt from time to
time in which senior employees are entitled to participate.

            4.03 Participation in Benefit Plans. (a) The Company will either
pay, or reimburse Executive, for the amount of the premiums due for a long-term
disability policy providing benefits of no less than one-half of Executive's
salary until age 65 with respect to Executive and a life insurance policy on the
life of Executive. Such life insurance policy will pay Executive's designated
beneficiary or beneficiaries no less than two times the amount of the Base
Salary that was being paid to Executive at the time of his death. In addition,
Executive shall also be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans or
programs offered to senior employees of Employer (to the extent that Executive
meets the requirements for each such plan or program), including without
limitation participation in any health, disability, dental, eye care, 401(k),
deferred compensation and other similar plans (together with the life insurance
and disability policies, "Benefits"), as such plans and programs may be or have
been adopted from time to time.


                                       4
<PAGE>

            (b) Employer intends to implement a plan relating to future
acquisitions of other businesses, pursuant to which a portion of a corporate
overhead charge implemented in connection with each acquisition will be
allocated in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors to compensation for
executive-level employees of the Company. Upon adoption of such plan, it shall
provide that Executive will be entitled to no less than 15% of the portion of
the corporate overhead charged allocated to executive-level compensation with
respect to each such acquisition consummated at any time during the period from
the date of adoption of such plan until the date on which the Employer's
obligations to pay Benefits has terminated pursuant to Section 6.02.

            4.04 Automobile and Other Expenses. The Company will pay to
Executive no less than $700 per month (adjusted annually for inflation, as
determined by the Company's Board of Directors) during the Term as reimbursement
for business-related operating expenses for an automobile to be used by
Executive, including without limitation automobile lease payments, insurance,
service and repairs in the ordinary course. In addition, the Company shall pay
or reimburse Executive for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by him
in the performance of his duties under this Agreement, subject to the
presentment and approval of appropriate itemized expense statements, receipts,
vouchers or other supporting documentation in accordance with the Company's
normal policies.

            4.05 Vacation. Executive shall be entitled to no less paid vacation
than other senior employees of the Company receive pursuant to the Company's
standard vacation policies, provided, however, that Executive shall be entitled
to no less than three (3) weeks of paid vacation during each twelve (12) month
period during the Term.

            4.06 Stock Options and Other Incentive Compensation. To further the
attainment of the Company's long-term profit and growth objectives, the Company
hereby grants Executive, contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement,
options to purchase such number of shares of common stock of the Company as will
convert into 1,200,000 shares of common stock (the "Common Stock") of the public
entity with which the Company merges upon acquisition of the Subsidiary. The
exercise price of 150,000 of such options shall be twenty-two cents and the
exercise price of the remaining options shall be determined in accordance with
the provisions of the Option Agreement being delivered simultaneously herewith.
In addition, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all other stock
option, revenue sharing, profit sharing, long-term accumulation and/or stock
based plans or programs that the Company or the Subsidiary may adopt from time
to time. For purposes of any Common Stock options or other similar programs to
be granted hereunder, such Common Stock and rights shall be defined to include
the Common Stock of any successor corporation or other entity into which the
Company is merged, or which acquires substantially all the assets of the
Company.

      5. Additional Covenants.

            5.01 Acknowledgments and Stipulations. Executive acknowledges that
he is agreeing to the covenants set forth in this Section 5 (a) in consideration
of the substantial economic benefits derived by Executive under the terms of
this Agreement, (b) in recognition that the services rendered by Executive to
Employer will be unique, as are Executive's abilities, skills and experience,
(c) in recognition that, as a result of his employment, Executive will acquire
and participate in the creation of knowledge and information of a confidential
and/or proprietary nature relating to the business of the Company and its
affiliates, which is valuable to the Company because the Company will expend
substantial time, effort and money to develop such knowledge and information,
(d) to induce Employer to employ Executive and disclose certain of such
information to Executive, and (e) to induce Employer to enter into this
Agreement.


                                       6

            5.02 Nonsolicitation of Customers and Executives. At all times
during the term of Executive's employment with the Employer and for a period of
twelve (12) months following the termination of such employment pursuant to
Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(f) hereto, (a) Executive shall not, directly or
indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person,
solicit or attempt to solicit the business or patronage of, or interfere with
the business relationship of the Employer with any customer of the Employer, and
(b) Executive shall not directly or indirectly cause any other person to employ,
solicit, disturb, entice away, or in any other manner persuade any employee of
the Employer or its affiliates to discontinue or alter his or her relationship
with the Employer.

            5.03 Noncompetition. At all times during the term of Executive's
employment with the Employer and for a period of twelve (12) months following
the termination of such employment for any reason other than a termination of
this Agreement by the Company without cause, Executive whether individually, as
a director, manager, member, stockholder, partner, owner, employee, consultant
or agent of any business, or in any other capacity, shall not engage, directly
or indirectly through any other person, in any business, enterprise or
employment which competes with the business of the Employer. Executive
acknowledges and agrees that the business of the Employer is of a worldwide
nature and that any geographic limitation on the foregoing covenant would be
ineffective to adequately protect the interests of the Employer. Executive
further acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing covenant is an integral part
of his agreement to be employed hereunder, is fair and reasonable in light of
all of the facts and circumstances of the relationship between Executive and the
Employer. In the event any court of competent jurisdiction determines that,
notwithstanding the foregoing acknowledgments, the scope of the restricted
activities of the foregoing covenant is excessive or not enforceable, or that


                                       7
<PAGE>

the foregoing covenant is not enforceable unless it is subject to a geographic
limitation, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to reflect the maximum
restrictions on activities and geographic scope allowable pursuant to such
court's determination. Nothing contained in this Section 5.03 shall be construed
as limiting the scope of this Section 5.

            5.04 Limitation on Covenant not to Compete. Ownership by Executive,
as a passive investment, of less than two percent (2.00%) of the outstanding
shares of capital stock of any corporation, with a cost basis to Executive of
less than $250,000, listed on a national securities exchange or publicly traded
in the over-the-counter market shall not constitute a breach of this Section 5.

            5.05 Confidential Information. Executive agrees that during and
after the period of his employment, he will not, without the authorization of
the Company, divulge, disclose or otherwise communicate to any person, other
than as necessary or desirable for the business of the Employer pursuant to his
responsibilities to the Employer during the Term, any information of a
confidential nature pertaining in any way to the Employer's business, products,
practices, techniques, customers, suppliers, functions or operations (the
"Confidential Information"), except to the extent that such Confidential
Information (a) was disclosed to Executive by a third party who did not obtain
the same directly or indirectly from the Company or one of its affiliates, (b)
was known by Executive prior to disclosure by the Employer, (c) at or after the
time of disclosure, is or becomes generally available to the public (other than
as a result of its disclosure by Executive), (d) is required to be disclosed by
Executive pursuant to applicable law or an order of a governing authority
applicable to Executive.

any of the following events at any time during such Initial Term or Renewal
Term:

                  (a) The effective date of Executive's voluntary resignation,
for which Executive agrees to give at least 30 days' prior written notice to the

any portion of Executive's compensation then due and payable; or (5) any failure
by Employer to comply with the material provisions of this Agreement. The Notice
of Good Reason shall indicate the specific provision above that Executive is

<PAGE>

                  (f) Executive's termination by Employer for Cause. For the
purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" means, as determined by the Board (or its
designee), with respect to conduct during the Executive's employment or service
relationship with the Company or its affiliates, whether or not committed during
the Term, (i) commission of a felony by Executive; (ii) acts of dishonesty by
Executive resulting or intending to result in personal gain or enrichment at the
expense of the Company or its subsidiaries; (iii) conduct by Executive in
connection with his duties hereunder that is fraudulent, unlawful or grossly

in personal conduct by Executive (including but not limited to employee
harassment or discrimination, the use or possession at work of any illegal
controlled substance) which seriously discredits or damages the Company or its
subsidiaries; and (v) breach of the Executive's covenants set forth in Section 5
before termination of employment; provided, that, the Executive shall have
fifteen (15) days after notice from the Company to cure the deficiency leading
to the Cause determination (except with respect to (i) above), if curable. A
termination for "Cause" shall be effective immediately or on such later date set
forth by the Company in the notice of termination.

            6.02 Severance. If Executive's employment is terminated:

            (a) as a result of Sections 6.01(b) and (f), then the Company shall
pay to Executive his full Base Salary, bonuses for the calendar year (or
employment period) prior to the year (or employment period) in which such
termination occurs and Benefits prorated through the effective date of such
termination, and Executive shall be reimbursed for any expenses incurred by him
pursuant to Section 4.04 through the termination date; or

            (b) as a result of Section 6.01(c), 6.01(d) or 6.01(e), then the
Company shall pay to Executive or Executive's estate (1) his full Base Salary,
bonuses for the calendar year (or employment period) prior to the year (or
employment period) in which such termination occurs, pro-rated bonuses for the


                                       10
<PAGE>

current year (or period) and Benefits prorated through the effective date of
such termination and (2) additional Base Salary, payable in monthly
installments, plus additional Benefits, for the period from the effective date
of such termination until the later of (i) one year after the effective date of
such termination and (ii) the date on which the then-current Initial Term or
Renewal Term, as the case may be, would have expired (provided, however, if
participation by Executive in any Benefit plan or program after the termination
of his employment is not permitted under such plan or program, then the Company
will provide him with the equivalent benefits); Executive shall be reimbursed
for any expenses incurred by him pursuant to Section 4.04 through the effective
date of such termination; Executive shall be paid $700 per month (or a prorated
portion thereof) for the automobile to be used by Executive from the effective
date of such termination until the later of (i) one year after the effective
date of such termination and (ii) the date on which the then-current Initial
Term or Renewal Term, as the case may be, would have expired; and all stock
options granted to Executive shall immediately vest and be exercisable as of,
and for a period of twelve months after, the effective date of such termination.

            6.03 "Disability" Defined. As used in this Agreement, the term
"Disability" means any mental or physical condition that results in the
Executive becoming unable to perform the essential functions of his position,
with reasonable accommodation, for a period of at least ninety (90) days. The
Executive shall be deemed to have a Disability at the end of such ninety (90)
day period.

            6.04 Surrender of Records and Property. Upon termination of
Executive's employment by Executive or by the Company, for any reason or for no
reason, Executive shall deliver promptly to the Company all records, manuals,
books, blank forms, documents, letters, memoranda, notes, notebooks, reports,
data, tables, and calculations, and copies thereof, in whatever medium, which


                                       11
<PAGE>

are the property of Employer or which relate in any way to the business,
products, practices, techniques, customers, suppliers, functions or operations
of Employer, and all other property and Confidential Information of Employer,
including, but not limited to, all documents which in whole or in part contain
any Confidential Information of Employer, which in any of these cases are in his
possession or under his control.

            6.05 Resignation. If the Executive's employment is terminated for
any reason under the terms of this Agreement, he shall be deemed to resign (i)
if a member, from the Board of Directors of the Company and any subsidiary of
the Company or any other board to which he has been appointed or nominated by or
on behalf of the Company and (ii) from any position with the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company, including, but not limited to, as an officer of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries.

            6.05 Successor. The Company, or any Person which controls the
Company, shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business
or assets of the Company by written agreement expressly to assume and agree to
perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company
and the Subsidiary would be required to perform if no such succession had
occurred. Failure of the Company or a controlling entity to obtain such written
agreement prior to the effective date of any such succession followed by the
failure of the successor to honor this Agreement shall be a breach of this
Agreement and shall entitle Executive to the rights and benefits hereunder as
though he had terminated his employment with Employer for Good Reason, whether
or not he terminates his employment with Employer.

      7. Injunctive Relief; Arbitration.


                                       12
<PAGE>

            7.01 Injunctive Relief. Executive agrees that (i) any breach or
threatened breach of Sections 5 or 6.04 shall be a material breach of this
Agreement, (ii) such breach will cause substantial harm to Employer and/or its
customers, the amount of which will be difficult to determine and compute, (iii)
the remedies of Employer at law for such breach would be inadequate to fully
compensate Employer for the harm caused thereby and (iv) in addition to, but not
to the exclusion of any other available remedy, Employer shall have the right to
enforce the provisions of Sections 5 and 6.04 by applying for and obtaining
temporary and permanent restraining orders, injunctions, decrees of specific
performance and other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction
without the necessity of filing a bond therefor or proving irreparable harm.

            7.02 Arbitration. Except as set forth in Section 7.01, any claim or
dispute of any nature between the parties to this Agreement arising directly or
indirectly from the relationship created by this Agreement shall be resolved
exclusively by arbitration in New York, New York, in accordance with the
applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association. The fees of the

incurred by the parties in connection with such arbitration shall be paid by the
party which is unsuccessful in such arbitration. The decision of the
arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding upon all parties. Judgment of the award
rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. If any dispute is submitted to arbitration, each party shall, not later
than 30 days before the date set for hearing, provide to the other parties and
to the arbitrator(s) a copy of all exhibits upon which the party intends to rely
at the hearing and a list of all Persons each party intends to call at the

                          GALES INDUSTRIES INCORPORATED

                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

      THIS AGREEMENT, made as of this ___ day of __________, 2005, by Gales
Industries Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the
"Company"), with Dario Peragallo (hereinafter call the "Holder"):

      The Company has adopted a 2005 Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). Said Plan, as
it may hereafter be amended and continued, is incorporated herein by reference
and made part of this Agreement. Terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan.

      The Board, which in the absence of a Committee is charged with the
administration of the Plan pursuant to Section 4 of the Plan, has determined
that it would be to the advantage and interest of the Company to grant the
option provided for herein to the Holder as an inducement to remain in the
service of the Company or one of its subsidiaries, and as an incentive for
increased efforts during such service.

      NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the
Holder as of the date hereof an option (the "Option") to purchase all or any
part of 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value $.0001 per
share, upon the following terms and conditions:

1. The Option shall continue in force through _____________, 2015 (the
"Expiration Date"), unless sooner terminated as provided herein and in the Plan.
Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the right to exercise the Options shall
vest as indicated below and the exercise price per share of the Options vesting
as of any date shall be greater of twenty-two ($.22) cents per share and the
amount indicated below:

       Date         # of Shares Which Vest             Exercise Price
       ----         ----------------------             --------------

For purposes hereof, FMV refers to the Fair Market Value of the shares as of the
date indicated.

      (a) Except as provided hereinbelow, the Option may not be exercised unless
the Holder is then an employee (including officers and directors who are
employees), non-employee director, consultant, advisor, agent or independent
representative of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or any
combination thereof and unless the Holder has remained in the continuous employ
or service thereof from the date of grant.

      (b) No installment under this option shall qualify for favorable tax
treatment as an Incentive Stock Option if (and to the extent) the aggregate Fair
Market Value of the Common Stock for which such installment first becomes
exercisable hereunder would, when added to the aggregate value of the Common
Stock or other securities for which this option or any other Incentive Stock
Options granted to Holder prior to the date hereof (whether under the Plan or
any other option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) first
become exercisable during the same calendar year, exceed One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000) in the aggregate. Should such One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000) limitation be exceeded in any calendar year, this option shall
nevertheless become exercisable for the excess shares in such calendar year as a
Non-Qualified Stock Option.

2. In the event that the employment or service of the Holder shall be terminated
prior to the Expiration Date (otherwise than by reason of death or disability),
the Option may, subject to the provisions of the Plan, be exercised (to the
extent that the Holder was entitled to do so at the termination of this
employment or service) at any time within three months after such termination,
but not after the Expiration Date, provided, however, that if such termination
shall have been for cause or voluntarily by the Holder and without the consent
of the Company or any subsidiary corporation thereof, as the case may be (which
consent shall be presumed in the case of normal retirement) or voluntarily by
the Holder and Holder accepts employment with a competitor of the Company, the
Option and all rights of the Holder hereunder, to the extent not theretofore
exercised, shall forthwith terminate immediately upon such termination. Nothing
in this Agreement shall confer upon the Holder any right to continue in the
employ or service of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or affect the
right of the Company or any subsidiary to terminate his employment or service at
any time.

3. If the Holder shall (a) die while he is employed by or serving the Company or
a corporation which is a subsidiary thereof or within three months after the
termination of such position (other than termination for cause, or voluntarily
on his part and without the Consent of the Company or subsidiary corporation
thereof, as the case may be, which consent shall be presumed in the case of
normal retirement or voluntarily by the Holder and Holder accepts employment
with a competitor of the Company), or (b) become permanently and totally
disabled within the meaning of Section 22 (e) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), while employed by or serving any such company,
and if the Option was otherwise exercisable, immediately prior to the occurrence
of such event, then such Option may be exercised as set forth herein by the
Holder or by the person or persons to whom the Holder's rights under the Option
pass by will or applicable law, or if no such person has such right, by his
executors or administrators, at any time within one year after the date of death
of the original Holder, or one year after the date of permanent or total
disability, but in either case, not later than the Expiration Date.


                                       21

4. (a) The Holder may exercise the Option with respect to all or any part of the
shares then purchasable hereunder by giving the Company written notice in the
form annexed, as provided in paragraph 8 hereof, of such exercise. Such notice
shall specify the number of shares as to which the Option is being exercised and
shall be accompanied by payment in full in cash of an amount equal to the
exercise price of such shares multiplied by the number of shares as to which the
Option is being exercised; provided that, if permitted by the Board, the
purchase price may be paid, in whole or in part, by surrender or delivery to the
Company of securities of the Company having a fair market value on the date of
the exercise equal to the portion of the purchase price being so paid. In such
event fair market value should be determined pursuant to the Plan.

      (b) The Holder shall, upon notification of the amount due, pay promptly
any amount necessary to satisfy applicable federal, state or local tax
requirements. In the event such amount is not paid promptly, the Company shall
have the right to apply from the purchase price paid any taxes required by law
to be withheld by the Company with respect to such payment and the number of
shares to be issued by the Company will be reduced accordingly.

5. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event of a change in
the outstanding shares of the Company by reason of a stock dividend, split-up,
split-down, reverse split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination
or exchange of shares, spin-off, reorganization, liquidation or the like, then
the aggregate number of shares and price per unit subject to the Option shall be
appropriately adjusted by the Board, whose determination shall be conclusive.

6. This Option shall be nontransferable and shall no be assignable, alienable,
saleable or otherwise transferable by the Holder other than by will or the laws
of descent and distribution except pursuant to a domestic relations order
entered by a court of competent jurisdiction. During the life of the Holder,
this Option shall be exercisable only by him. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to
the extent the Option is deemed a Non-Qualified Stock Option, the Holder shall
be permitted to transfer such Option to family members or family trusts
established by the Holder. Except as otherwise provided for herein, in the event
that the Holder terminates employment with the Company to assume a position with
a governmental, charitable, educational or similar non-profit institution, the
Holder may nominate a third party, including but not limited to a "blind" trust,
to act on behalf or and for the benefit of the Holder with respect to the
Option. In addition, the Holder may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to
exercise the rights of the Holder and receive any distributions upon the death
of the Holder.

7. Neither the Holder nor in the event of his death, any person entitled to
exercise his rights, shall have any of the rights of a member with respect to
the shares subject to the Option until shares have been registered in the name
of the Holder or his estate, as the case may be.

8. Any notice to the Company provided for in this Agreement shall be addressed
to the Company in care of its Chairman, Michael Gales, and any notice to the


                                       22
<PAGE>

Holder shall be addressed to him at his address now on file with the Company, or
to such other address as either may last have designated to the other by notice
as provided herein. Any notice so addressed shall be deemed to be given on the
second business day after mailing, by registered or certified mail, at a post
office or branch post office within the United States.

9. In the event that any question or controversy shall arise with respect to the
nature, scope or extent of any one or more rights conferred by this Option, the
determination by the Board, or if one had been appointed, the Committee (as
constituted at the time of such determination) of the rights of the Holder shall
be conclusive, final and binding upon the Holder and upon any other person who
shall assert any right pursuant to this Option.
