Exhibit 4

                      NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

         THIS NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is between
Mark Neuhaus (the  "Grantee") and the other party named on the signature page to
this  Agreement  (the  "Company").  Each of the Grantee and the Company are also
referred to in this agreement as the "Parties."

         WHEREAS,  the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company  (the  "Board  of
Directors") has authorized the grant to the Grantee, for services to be rendered
by the  Grantee  as a  consultant  to the  Company  pursuant  to the  terms of a
Consulting and Marketing License Agreement (the "Consulting  Agreement") between
the Company and the Grantee,  of a non-qualified  stock option (the "Option") to
purchase the number of shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock")
specified in paragraph 1 of this Agreement,  at the price specified in paragraph
1 of this Agreement.

         NOW THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of the premises and mutual covenants
set forth in this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

         1. Number of Shares;  Exercise  Price.  Pursuant to action taken by the
Board of Directors,  the Company hereby grants to the Grantee,  in consideration
of consulting  services to be performed for the benefit of the Company  pursuant
to the  Consulting  Agreement,  an option  ("Option")  to purchase the number of
common shares ("Option Shares") of Common Stock set forth below, at the exercise
price set forth below:

         Number of Shares or Total Dollar amount:  2,758,620

         Exercise Price or Percentage per Share (in US$):  $0.725 per share

         2.       Term.  The Option  and this  Agreement  shall  expire ten (10)
years from the date of this

Agreement.

         3.       Shares  Subject To Exercise.  The Option shall be  immediately
exercisable  and shall  remain  exercisable  for the entire  Term  specified  in
paragraph 2 of this Agreement.

         4. Method and Time of Exercise. The Option may be exercised in whole or
from time to time in part by written notice delivered to the Company stating the
number  of  Option  Shares  with  respect  to which  the  Option  is then  being
exercised,  together  with a check or wire to the Company in the amount equal to
the Exercise  Price  multiplied by the number of Option Shares then being issued
pursuant  to the written  notice of  exercise.  Not less than one hundred  (100)
Option  Shares  may be  purchased  upon  exercise  of the Option at any one time
unless the number of Option  Shares  for which  exercise  of the Option is being
made is all of the Option Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Option. Only
whole shares shall be issued upon exercise of the Option.

         5.       Tax  Withholding.  As a  condition  to exercise of the options
Grantee shall be liable to pay to all applicable federal, state and local taxes.

         6.       Exercise Following  Termination of Consulting  Agreement.  The
Option shall not terminate as a result of the termination of Grantee's  services
as a consultant to the Company pursuant to the Consulting Agreement.

         7.       Transferability.  The  Option  and this  Agreement  may not be
assigned  or  transferred  except  by  will  or  by  the  laws  of  descent  and
distribution, and with consent of the Company.

         8.       Grantee Not a Shareholder. The Grantee shall have no rights as
a  shareholder  with respect to the Option  Shares issued from time to time upon
exercise of the Option until the earlier of: (1) the date of issuance of a stock
certificate or stock certificates to the Grantee applicable to the Option Shares
then  issuable  to the Grantee  upon  exercise of the Option and (2) the date on
which the Grantee or his  nominee is recorded as owner of such Option  Shares on
the Company's stock ledger by the Company's  registrar and transfer agent, which
may be the Company.  Except as set forth in paragraph 13 of this  Agreement,  no
adjustment  will be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date
is prior to the earlier of the events  described  in clauses (1) and (2) of this
paragraph.

         9.       Restrictions  on Transfer.  The Grantee  represents and agrees
that,  upon the  Grantee's  exercise  of the Option in whole or in part,  unless
there is in effect at that time under the  Securities Act of 1933 a registration
statement  relating to the Option  Shares,  the Grantee  will acquire the Option
Shares for the  purpose  of  investment  and not with a view to their  resale or
further  distribution,  and that upon such  exercise  hereof,  the Grantee  will
furnish to the Company a written  statement to such effect,  satisfactory to the
Company in form and substance.

         10.      Shares  Qualified  for Listing.  Company  represents  that its
Common  Stock is qualified  for trading or quotation on a nationally  recognized
securities  exchange or stock quotation system,  including,  without limitation,
the NASDAQ  Bulletin  Board,  and for trading with the California  Department of
Corporations or such other applicable jurisdictions.

         11.      Registration Rights. Upon signing this Agreement,  the Company
shall immediately,  at the Company's expense,  use its best efforts to file with
the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  ("SEC"),  a  registration  statement
("Registration Statement") on Form S-8 or other comparable form, or if such form
is not then available, such other form of registration statement then available,
in such form as to comply with applicable federal and state laws for the purpose
of registering or qualifying the Option Shares for public resale by the Grantee,
and  prepare  and  file  with  the  appropriate   state  securities   regulatory
authorities the documents reasonably necessary to register or qualify the Option
Shares,  subject to the ability of the Company to register or qualify the Option
Shares under applicable state law.

         12.      Notices.  All notices to the Company shall be addressed to the
Company at the  principal  office of the Company at the  address  and  facsimile
number set forth on the signature page of this Agreement, and all notices to the
Grantee shall be addressed to the Grantee at the address and facsimile number of
the Grantee set forth on the signature  page of this Agreement or, if different,
the last address and facsimile number on file with the Company, or to such other
address and facsimile number as either may designate to the other in writing.  A
notice  shall be  deemed to be duly  given if and when  enclosed  in a  properly
addressed sealed envelope  deposited,  postage prepaid and followed by facsimile
to the addressee. In lieu of giving notice by mail as aforesaid, written notices
under this Agreement may be given by personal  delivery to the Grantee or to the
Company  (as the case may be) by  nationally  recognized  courier  or  overnight
delivery service.

                                        2

         13.      Adjustments.  If there is any change in the  capitalization of
the Company after the date of this Agreement  affecting in any manner the number
of kind of outstanding  shares of Common Stock of the Company,  whether by stock
dividend,  stock split,  reclassification  or recapitalization of such stock, or
because  the  Company  has  merged  or  consolidated  with  one  or  more  other
corporations  (and  provided the Option does not thereby  terminate  pursuant to
paragraph 14 of this Agreement), then the number and kind of shares then subject
to the Option and the exercise  price to be paid for the Option  Shares shall be
appropriately  adjusted by the Board of Directors;  provided however, that in no
event shall any such adjustment  result in the Company being required to sell or
issue any fractional shares. Any such adjustment shall be made without change in
the  aggregate  exercise  price  applicable  to the  unexercised  portion of the
Option, but with an appropriate  adjustment to the exercise price of each Option
Share or other unit of security then covered by the Option and this Agreement.

         14.      Cessation of Corporate  Existence.  Notwithstanding  any other
provision  of this  Agreement,  in the  event of the  reorganization,  merger or
consolidation of the Company with one or more  corporations as a result of which
the Company is not the surviving  corporation,  or the sale of substantially all
the  assets of the  Company  or of more  than  fifty  percent  (50%) of the then
outstanding  stock of the Company to another  corporation  or other  entity in a
single  transaction,  the Option  grated  hereunder  shall  terminate,  provided
however,  that not later than five (5) days  before the  effective  date of such
merger  or  consolidation  or sale of assets  in which  the  Company  is not the
surviving  corporation,  the  surviving  corporation  may,  but  shall not be so
obligated  to, tender to the Grantee an option to purchase a number of shares of
capital stock of the surviving  corporation equal to the number of Option Shares
then issuable  upon  exercise of the Option,  and such new option or options for
shares of the surviving  corporation  shall contain such terms,  conditions  and
provisions  as shall be  required  substantially  to  preserve  the  rights  and
benefits of the Option and this Agreement.

         15.      Miscellaneous.
                  -------------

(a)      Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and the Consulting  Agreement contain
         the  entire  agreement  between  the  Parties,  and may not be  waived,
         amended, modified or supplemented except by agreement in writing signed
         by  the  Party  against  whom  enforcement  of any  waiver,  amendment,
         modification or supplement is sought.  Waiver of or failure to exercise
         any rights  provided by this Agreement and the Consulting  Agreement in
         any  respect  shall  not be deemed a waiver  of any  further  or future
         rights.

(b)      Governing  Law. This  Agreement  shall be construed  under the internal
         laws of the  State  of  California,  and the  Parties  agree  that  the
         exclusive  jurisdiction for any litigation or arbitration  arising from
         this  Agreement  shall be in Los Angeles,  California or New York City,
         New York to be mutually agreed upon by both parties.

                                        3

(c)      Counterpart.   This   Agreement   may  be   executed  in  two  or  more
         counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but which when
         taken together shall constitute one agreement.

(d)      Severability.  If one or more  provisions of this Agreement are held to
         be  unenforceable  under  applicable  law, such  provision(s)  shall be
         excluded from this Agreement and the balance of this Agreement shall be
         interpreted as if such provision were excluded and shall be enforceable
         in accordance with its terms.

                             ARTICLE II - PURPOSES
                             ---------------------

     The Plan is intended to assist the Company and its Affiliates in recruiting
and retaining individuals with ability and initiative by enabling such persons
to participate in the future success

<PAGE>

of the Company and its Affiliates, and to associate their interests with those
of the Company and its shareholders.

         The Plan is intended to permit the grant of Options which do not
qualify under Section 422 of the Code as incentive stock options. The Plan is
also intended to permit the grant of Share Awards, Restricted Unit Awards,
Deferred Unit Awards and Dividend Equivalent Rights. The proceeds received by
the Company from the sale of shares of Stock pursuant to this Plan shall be used
for general corporate purposes. Except as provided in Articles VIII and XII,
each Option or other Award may be exercised, terminated, canceled, forfeited,
transferred or otherwise disposed of only in units consisting of shares of
Stock.

                          ARTICLE III - ADMINISTRATION
                          ----------------------------

         The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall
have authority to grant any Awards upon such terms (not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Plan) as the Committee may consider appropriate. Such terms
may include conditions (in addition to those contained in this Plan) on the
exercisability of all or any part of an Option or on the transferability or
forfeitability of any Award. The Committee may, in connection with the death,
disability or other termination of employment of a Participant or a Change in
Control of the Company, accelerate the time at which any Option may be exercised
or the time at which a Restricted Unit Award may become transferable or
nonforfeitable. In addition, the Committee shall have complete authority to
interpret all provisions of this Plan; to prescribe the form of Agreements; to
adopt, amend, and rescind rules and regulations pertaining to the administration
of the Plan; and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the
administration of this Plan. The express grant in the Plan of any specific power
to the Committee shall not be construed as limiting any power or authority of
the Committee. Any decision made, or action

                                       4

<PAGE>

taken, by the Committee or in connection with the administration of this Plan
shall be final and conclusive. No member of the Committee shall be liable for
any act done in good faith with respect to this Plan or any Agreement or Award.
All expenses of administering this Plan shall be borne by the Company.

         The Committee, in its discretion, may delegate to one or more officers
of the Company all or part of the Committee's authority and duties with respect
to grants and awards to individuals who are not "covered employees" within the
meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code or subject to the reporting and other
provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Any such delegation by the
Committee shall include a limitation as to the amount of Awards that may be
granted during the period of the delegation and shall contain guidelines as to
the determination of the exercise price of any Option, the conversion ratio or
price of other Awards and the vesting criteria. The Committee may revoke or
amend the terms of a delegation at any time but such action shall not invalidate
any prior actions of the Committee's delegate or delegates that were consistent
with the terms of the Plan.

                            ARTICLE IV - ELIGIBILITY
                            ------------------------

         Any employee of the Company or an Affiliate (including a corporation or
other entity that becomes an Affiliate after the adoption of this Plan) or a
person whose efforts contribute to the performance or success of the Company or
an Affiliate (including a corporation or other entity that becomes an Affiliate
after the adoption of this Plan), including a consultant, is eligible to
participate in this Plan if the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines
that such person has contributed significantly or can be expected to contribute
significantly to the profits or growth of the Company or an Affiliate.
Independent Directors of the Company are also eligible to participate in this
Plan.

                       ARTICLE V - SHARES SUBJECT TO PLAN
                       ----------------------------------

     5.01 Shares Issued. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12.01, the
          -------------
aggregate number of shares of Stock available from time to time for all Awards
under this Plan shall be such aggregate number of shares as does not exceed 10%
of the shares of Stock actually outstanding, which figure shall be calculated on
a "fully diluted basis." For purposes of this Section 5.01, "fully diluted
basis" shall mean the assumed conversion into shares of Stock of all outstanding
shares of the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock, the assumed exercise of all outstanding options to
acquire shares of Stock and the assumed conversion into shares of Stock of all
units of partnership interest in Patriot American Hospitality Partnership, L.P.
and Wyndham International Operating Partnership, L.P. that are subject to
redemption. For purposes of this limitation, if any portion of an Award is
forfeited, canceled, reacquired by the Company, satisfied without the issuance
of Stock or otherwise terminated, the shares of Stock underlying such portion of
the Award shall be added back to the shares of Stock available for issuance
under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no reduction in the number of
shares of Stock actually outstanding (as calculated on a fully diluted basis)
shall affect the validity of any Awards previously granted under this Plan or
affect the validity of or restrict the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to
Awards previously granted under this Plan Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
maximum number of shares of Stock for which Restricted Unit Awards, Share Awards
and Deferred Unit Awards may be granted under this Plan during the term of the
Plan shall not exceed forty percent (40%) of the shares of Stock issuable under
the Plan, and the maximum number of shares of Stock with respect to which Awards
may be granted during any calendar year period to any Participant shall not
exceed 1,500,000 shares, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12.01.

                                        6

<PAGE>

     Shares of Stock to be delivered under the Plan shall be made available by
the Company from authorized and unissued shares of Stock issued by the Company
directly to the holder.

     5.02 Substitute Awards. The Committee may grant Awards under the Plan in
          -----------------
substitute for stock and stock-based awards held by employees of another
employer who become employees of the Company or an Affiliate as the result of a
merger or consolidation of the employer with the Company or an Affiliate, or the
acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of property or stock of the employer.
The Administrator may direct that the substitute awards be granted on such terms
and conditions as the Administrator consider appropriate in the circumstances
whether or not specifically authorized under the Plan. Unless otherwise provided
by the Administrator, any grants of shares of Stock under this Section 5.02
shall not count against the shares of Stock available for issuance under the
Plan under Section 5.01.

                              ARTICLE VI - OPTIONS
                              --------------------

     6.01 Award. In accordance with the provisions of Article IV, the Committee
          -----
will designate each individual to whom an Option is to be granted and will
specify the number of shares of Stock covered by such awards.

     6.02 Option Price. The price per share of Stock purchased on the exercise
          ------------
of an Option shall be determined by the Committee on the date of grant;
provided, however, that the price per share of Stock purchased on the exercise
of any Option shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair
Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant of such Option. Except as
provided in Section 12.01, the Option price may not be reduced after the date of
grant. The foregoing sentence is not intended to, and shall not be interpreted
to, prohibit the Committee from authorizing the exchange of outstanding Options
for new Options for fewer shares at a

                                        7

<PAGE>

reduced exercise price so long as the exchange is made on a comparable value
basis (as determined under a generally recognizable option pricing model).

     6.03 Stock Options Granted to Independent Directors. The Committee, in its
          ----------------------------------------------
discretion, may grant Options to Independent Directors. Any such grant may vary
among individual Independent Directors. The exercise price per share of Stock
covered by an Option granted under this Section 6.03 shall be equal to the Fair
Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant. Unless otherwise
determined by the Committee, an Option granted under Section 6.03 shall be
exercisable in full as of the grant date.

     6.04 Maximum Option Period. The maximum period in which an Option may be
          ---------------------
exercised shall be determined by the Committee on the date of grant and may not
exceed ten years from the date such Option was granted.

     6.05 Nontransferability. Except as provided in Section 6.06, each Option
          ------------------
granted under this Plan shall be nontransferable except by will or by the laws
of descent and distribution. During the lifetime of the Participant to whom the
Option is granted, the Option may be exercised only by the Participant. No right
or interest of a Participant in any Option shall be liable for, or subject to,
any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant.

     6.06 Transferable Options. Section 6.05 to the contrary notwithstanding,
          --------------------
the Committee may provide in an Agreement regarding a given Option that an
Option that is not an incentive stock option may be transferred by a Participant
to the Participant's children, grandchildren, spouse, one or more trusts for the
benefit of the Participant and/or such family members or a partnership in which
each partner is either the Participant or one of such family members; provided,
however, that the Participant may not receive any consideration for the
transfer. The holder of an Option transferred pursuant to this section shall be
bound by the same

                                        8

<PAGE>

terms and conditions that governed the Option during the period that it was held
by the Participant.

     6.07 Employee Status. In the event that the terms of any Option provide
          ---------------
that it may be exercised only during employment or within a specified period of
time after termination of employment, the Committee may decide to what extent
leaves of absence for governmental or military service, illness, temporary
disability, or other reasons shall not be deemed interruptions of continuous
employment.

     6.08 Exercise. Subject to the provisions of this Plan and the applicable
          --------
Agreement, an Option may be exercised in whole at any time or in part from time
to time at such times and in compliance with such requirements as the Committee
shall determine. An Option granted under this Plan may be exercised with respect
to any number of whole shares less than the full number for which the Option
could be exercised. A partial exercise of an Option shall not affect the right
to exercise the Option from time to time in accordance with this Plan and the
applicable Agreement with respect to the remaining shares subject to the Option.

     6.09 Payment. Unless otherwise provided by the Agreement, payment of the
          -------
Option price shall be made in cash or a cash equivalent acceptable to the
Committee. If the Agreement provides, payment of all or part of the option price
may be made by surrendering to the Company previously owned whole shares of
Stock (which the Participant has held for at least six months prior to the
delivery of such shares of Stock or which the Participant purchased on the open
market and for which the Participant has good title, free and clear of all liens
and encumbrances). If shares of Stock are used to pay all or part of the Option
price, the sum of the cash, cash equivalent, and the Fair Market Value
(determined as of the day preceding the date of exercise) of the shares of Stock
surrendered must not be less than the option price of the shares of Stock

                                        9

<PAGE>

for which the Option is being exercised. If the Agreement provides, payment of
all or part of the option price may be made by the Participant delivering to the
Company a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable
instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check
payable and acceptable to the Company to pay the purchase price; provided that
in the event the Participant chooses to pay the purchase price as so provided,
the Participant and the broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into
such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Committee shall
prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure. If the Agreement provides
and if the Board has authorized the loan of funds to the Participant for the
purpose of enabling or assisting the Participant to exercise his Option, payment
of the option price may be made by the Participant with a promissory note,
provided that at least so much of the exercise price as represents the par value
of the shares of Stock shall be paid other than with a promissory note.

     6.10 Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall have any rights as a
          ------------------
shareholder with respect to shares of Stock subject to his Option until the date
of exercise of such Option.

                           ARTICLE VII - SHARE AWARDS
                           --------------------------

     In accordance with the provisions of Article IV, the Committee will
designate each individual to whom a Share Award is to be made and will specify
the number of shares of Stock covered by such award. A Share Award shall be
granted as incentive compensation or in lieu of current cash compensation
otherwise payable to a Participant and shall be free of any vesting
restrictions. The Company shall issue or cause to be issued shares of Stock to a
Participant who receives a Share Award.

                     ARTICLE VIII - RESTRICTED UNIT AWARDS
                     -------------------------------------

     8.01 Award. In accordance with the provisions of Article IV, the Committee
          -----
will designate each individual to whom a Restricted Unit Award is to be made and
will specify the number of shares of Stock covered by such award. Such an award
shall entitle the Participant to receive a payment of shares of Stock upon the
satisfaction of the vesting restriction period or satisfaction of performance
objectives; provided, however, that the Committee may permit a Participant to
elect, pursuant to an advance written election delivered to the Company no later
than the date prescribed to the Committee, to defer receipt of some or all of
the shares of Stock. The Committee may provide in the Agreement that following a
Change in Control in which the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for
a different kind of stock or other securities or cash or other property, the
unvested portion of a Restricted Unit Award shall thereafter upon vesting be
settled in stock, other securities, cash or other property upon such terms and
subject to such conditions as the Committee may determine.

     8.02 Vesting. The Committee, on the date of the award, shall prescribe that
          -------
a Participant's rights in the Restricted Unit Award shall be forfeitable or
otherwise restricted for a period of time or subject to such conditions as may
be set forth in the Agreement. The period of restriction shall be at least three
years; provided, however, that the minimum period of restriction shall be at
least one year in the case of a Restricted Unit Award that will become
transferable and nonforfeitable on account of the satisfaction of performance
objectives prescribed by the Committee. During the restriction period, the
Committee may provide that the Participant's Restricted Unit Award be credited
with Dividend Equivalent Rights.

     8.03 Performance Objectives. In accordance with Section 8.02, the Committee
          ----------------------
may prescribe that Restricted Unit Awards will become vested, transferable, or
both, based on

                                       11

<PAGE>

objectives stated with respect to the Company's, an Affiliate's, or an operating
unit's return on equity, funds from operations, cash available for distribution,
earnings per share, total earnings, earnings growth, return on capital, return
on assets, or Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock. If the Committee, on the
date of the award, prescribes that a Restricted Unit Award shall become
nonforfeitable and transferable only upon the attainment of performance
objectives stated with respect to one or more of the foregoing criteria, the
shares of Stock subject to such Restricted Unit Award shall become
nonforfeitable and transferable only to the extent that the Committee certifies
that such objectives have been achieved.

     8.04 Employee Status. In the event that the terms of any Restricted Unit
          ---------------
Award provide that shares of Stock may become transferable and nonforfeitable
thereunder only after completion of a specified period of employment, the
Committee may decide in each case to what extent leaves of absence for
governmental or military service, illness, temporary disability, or other
reasons shall not be deemed interruptions of continuous employment.

     8.05 Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall, as a result of receiving a
          ------------------
Restricted Unit Award, have any rights as a shareholder until and to the extent
that the Restricted Unit Award is settled by the issuance of shares of Stock.
After the Restricted Unit Award is settled in shares of Stock, a Participant
will have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to such shares of Stock.
The Company shall issue, or cause to be issued, shares of Stock to the
Participant.

     8.06 Nontransferability. A Restricted Unit Award shall be nontransferable
          ------------------
except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. No right or interest
of a Participant in any Restricted Unit Award shall be liable for, or subject
to, any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant.

                       ARTICLE IX - DEFERRED UNIT AWARDS
                       ---------------------------------

     9.01 Elections to Receive Deferred Unit Awards in Lieu of Compensation. The
          -----------------------------------------------------------------
Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit a Participant to elect, pursuant
to an advance written election delivered to the Company no later than the date
specified by the Committee, to defer receipt of all or a portion of the cash
compensation otherwise due to such Participant. The amount of the deferred
compensation shall be converted to a Deferred Unit Award using the Fair Market
Value of the shares of Stock on the date immediately prior to the date the cash
compensation would otherwise be paid.

     9.02 Terms and Conditions. At the time the Participant makes a deferred
          --------------------
compensation election, the Committee shall direct the Company to enter into an
Agreement with the Participant which sets forth the terms and conditions of
deferral, including the timing of payment and any vesting schedule. During the
term of deferral, the Participant's Deferred Unit Award will be credited with
Dividend Equivalent Rights.

     9.03 Form of Payment. Deferred Unit Award shall be settled in shares of
          ---------------
Stock, in a single installment or installments. A fractional share of a Deferred
Unit shall be settled in cash. The Company shall issue, or cause to be issued,
shares of Stock to the Participant.

     9.04 Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall, as a result of receiving a
          ------------------
Deferred Unit Award, have any rights as a shareholder until and to the extent
that the Deferred Unit Award is settled by the issuance of shares of Stock.
After the Deferred Unit Award is settled in shares of Stock, a Participant will
have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to such shares of Stock.

     9.05 Nontransferability. A Deferred Unit Award shall be nontransferable
          ------------------
except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. No right or interest
of a Participant in any

                                       13

<PAGE>

Deferred Unit Award shall be liable for, or subject to, any lien, obligation, or
liability of such Participant.

                     ARTICLE X - DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT RIGHTS
                     --------------------------------------

     10.01 Awards. In accordance with the provisions of Article IV, the
           ------
Committee will designate each individual to whom an award of Dividend Equivalent
Rights is to be made. An award of Dividend Equivalent Rights entitles the
recipient to receive credits based on cash dividends that would have been paid
on the shares of Stock specified in the award of Dividend Equivalent Rights (or
other award to which it relates) if such shares had been issued to and held by
the recipient. An award of Dividend Equivalent Right may be granted hereunder to
any Participant as a component of another award or as a freestanding award. The
terms and conditions of Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be specified in the
Agreement. Dividend equivalents credited to the holder of a Dividend Equivalent
Rights may be paid currently or may be deemed to be reinvested in additional
shares of Stock, which may thereafter accrue additional equivalents. Any such
reinvestment shall be at Fair Market Value on the date of reinvestment or such
other price as may then apply under a dividend reinvestment plan sponsored by
the Company, if any. Dividend Equivalent Rights granted as a component of
another award may provide that such Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be settled
upon exercise, settlement, or payment of, or lapse of restrictions on, such
other award, and that such Dividend Equivalent Rights shall expire or be
forfeited or annulled under the same conditions as such other award. Dividend
Equivalent Rights granted as a component of another award may also contain terms
and conditions different from such other award.

                                       14

<PAGE>

     10.02 Payment. In the discretion of the Committee and as provided in the
           -------
Agreement, Dividend Equivalent Rights may be settled in cash, shares of Stock,
or a combination thereof, in a single installment or installments.

     10.03 Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall, as a result of receiving an
           ------------------
award of Dividend Equivalent Rights, have any rights as a shareholder until and
to the extent that the award of Dividend Equivalent Rights is earned and settled
by the issuance of shares of Stock. After an award of Dividend Equivalent Rights
is earned, if settled completely or partially in shares of Stock, a Participant
will have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to such shares of Stock.
The Company shall issue, or cause to be issued, shares of Stock to the
Participant.

     10.04 Nontransferability. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement,
           ------------------
Dividend Equivalent Rights granted under this Plan shall be nontransferable
except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. No right or interest
of a Participant in any Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be liable for, or
subject to, any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant.

     12.01 Adjustments. The maximum number of shares of Stock as to which awards
           -----------
may be granted under this Plan, the terms of outstanding awards and the per
individual limitations on the number of shares of Stock for which Options or
other Awards may be granted, shall be adjusted as the Committee shall determine
to be equitably required in the event that (a) the Company (i) effects one or
more stock dividends, stock split-ups, subdivisions or consolidations of shares
or (ii) engages in a transaction to which Section 424 of the Code applies or (b)
there occurs any other event which, in the judgment of the Committee,
necessitates such action. Any determination made under this Article XII by the
Committee shall be final and conclusive.

     12.02 Mergers or Other Corporate Transactions. Upon consummation of a
           ---------------------------------------
consolidation, merger, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company in which outstanding shares of Stock are exchanged for securities, cash,
or other property of an unrelated corporation or business entity, or in the
event of a liquidation of the Company (in each case, a "Transaction"), the
Board, or the board of directors of any corporation assuming the obligations of
the Company, may, in its discretion, take any one or more of the following
actions, as to outstanding Awards: (i) provide that such Awards shall be assumed
or equivalent awards shall be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding
corporation (or an affiliate thereof), (ii) upon written notice to the
Participants, provide that all Awards will terminate immediately prior to the
consummation of the Transaction. In the event that, pursuant to clause (ii)
above, Awards will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of the
Transaction, all Awards, other than Options, shall be fully settled in cash or
in kind at such appropriate consideration as determined by the Committee in its
sole discretion after taking into account the consideration payable per share of
Stock pursuant to the business combination (the "Merger Price") and all Options
shall be fully settled, in cash or in kind, in an amount equal to the difference
between (A) the Merger Price times the number of shares of Stock subject to such
outstanding Options (to the extent then exercisable at prices not in excess of
the Merger Price) and (B) the aggregate exercise price of all such outstanding
Options; provided, however, that each Participant shall be permitted, within a
specified period determined by the Committee prior to the consummation of the
Transaction, to exercise all outstanding Options, including those that are not
then exercisable, subject to the consummation of the Transaction.

                          APPROVAL OF REGULATORY BODIES
                          -----------------------------

        No Option shall be exercisable, no shares of Stock shall be issued, no
certificates for shares of Stock shall be delivered, and no payment shall be
made under this Plan except in compliance with all applicable federal and state
laws and regulations (including, without limitation, withholding tax
requirements), any listing agreement to which the Company is a party, and the
rules of all domestic stock exchanges on which the Stock may be listed. The
Company shall have the right to rely on an opinion of its counsel as to such
compliance. Any share certificate issued to evidence a share of Stock when a
Share Award is granted, or for which an Option is exercised or a Restricted Unit
Award or Deferred Unit Award settled, may bear such legends and statements as
the Committee may deem advisable to assure compliance with federal and state
laws and regulations. No Option shall be exercisable, no Share Award shall be
granted, no share of Stock shall be issued, no certificate for shares of Stock
shall be delivered, and no payment shall be made under this Plan until the
Company has obtained such consent or approval as the Committee may deem
advisable from regulatory bodies having jurisdiction over such matters.

              --------------------------------
Plan, its operation, nor any documents describing or referring to this Plan (or
any part thereof) shall confer upon any individual any right to continue in the
employ or service of the Company or an Affiliate or in any way affect any right
and power of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate the employment or service
of any individual at any time with or without assigning a reason therefor.
