                          ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

     3.1 ELIGIBILITY. Each Employee who is an Employee regularly scheduled to
work at least twenty (20) hours each week and at least five (5) months each
calendar year shall be eligible to participate in the Plan as of the later of:

     (A) the Offering Date immediately following the Employee's last date of
hire by an Employer; or

     (B) the Effective Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Employee shall be granted a Purchase Right for
an Offering Period if, immediately after the grant, the Employee would own
stock, and/or hold outstanding options to purchase stock, possessing five (5%)
percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of
stock of the Corporation or any Subsidiary. For purposes of this Section, the

ownership

                                      -3-
<PAGE>   4

of any Employee.

     3.2 LEAVE OF ABSENCE. For purposes of Section 3.1, an individual on a leave
of absence from an Employer shall be deemed to be an Employee for the first one
hundred eighty (180) days of such leave. Such individual's employment with the
Employer shall be deemed to terminate at the close of business on the 180th day
of the leave, unless the individual has returned to regular employment with an
Employer before the close of business on such 180th day. Termination of any
individual's leave of absence by an Employer, other than on account of a return
to employment with an Employer, shall be deemed to terminate an individual's
employment with the Employer for all purposes of the Plan.

     3.3 INITIAL PARTICIPATION. An Employee eligible to participate in the Plan
under Section 3.1 may submit a Request Form to the Administrator for an Offering
Period. The Request Form shall authorize a regular payroll deduction from the
Employee's Compensation for the Offering Period, subject to the limits and
procedures described in Section 6.1. A Participant's Request Form authorizing a
regular payroll deduction shall remain effective from Offering Period to
Offering Period until amended or canceled under Section 6.3.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                 STOCK AVAILABLE

     4.1 IN GENERAL. Subject to the adjustments in Sections 4.2 and 4.3, an
aggregate of two hundred thousand (200,000) shares of Common Stock shall be
available for purchase by Participants pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.
These shares may be authorized and unissued shares or may be shares issued and
subsequently acquired by the Corporation. If a Purchase Right under the Plan
expires or terminates for any reason without having been exercised in whole or
part, the shares subject to such Purchase Right that are not purchased shall
again be available for subsequent Purchase Right grants under the Plan. If the
total number of shares of Common Stock for which Purchase Rights are exercised
on any Purchase Date exceeds the maximum number of shares then available under
the Plan, the Committee shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares available
in as nearly a uniform manner as shall be practicable and as it shall determine
to be equitable, and the balance of the cash credited to Participants' accounts
shall be distributed to the Participants as soon as practicable.

     4.2 ADJUSTMENT IN EVENT OF CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION. In the event of a
stock dividend, stock split or combination of shares, recapitalization or other
change in the Corporation's capitalization or other distribution with respect to
holders of the Corporation's Common Stock other than normal cash dividends, an
automatic adjustment shall be made in the number and kind of shares as to which
outstanding Purchase Rights or portions thereof then unexercised shall be
exercisable and in the available shares set forth in Section 4.1, so that the
proportionate interest of the Participants shall be maintained as before the
occurrence of such event. This adjustment in outstanding Purchase Rights shall
be made without change in the total price applicable to the unexercised portion
of such Purchase Rights and with a corresponding adjustment in the Purchase
Price per share; provided, however, that in no event shall any

                                      -4-
<PAGE>   5

adjustment be made that would cause any Purchase Right to fail to qualify as an
option pursuant to an employee stock purchase plan within the meaning of Section
423 of the Code.

     4.3 DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION, OR MERGER. Upon the dissolution or
liquidation of the Corporation, or upon a reorganization, merger, or
consolidation of the Corporation with one or more corporations in which the
Corporation is not the surviving corporation, or upon a sale of substantially
all of the property or stock of the Corporation to another corporation, the
holder of each Purchase Right then outstanding under the Plan shall be entitled
to receive at the next Purchase Date upon the exercise of such Purchase Right
for each share as to which such Purchase Right shall be exercised, as nearly as
reasonably may be determined, the cash, securities, or property which a holder
of one (1) share of the Common Stock was entitled to receive upon and at the
time of such transaction. The Board shall take such steps in connection with
these transactions as the Board deems necessary or appropriate to assure that
the provisions of this Section shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as
reasonably may be determined, in relation to the cash, securities, or property
which the holder of the Purchase Right may thereafter be entitled to receive. In
lieu of the foregoing, the Committee may terminate the Plan in accordance with
Section 8.2.

                                    ARTICLE V

                            PURCHASE RIGHT PROVISIONS

     5.1 PURCHASE PRICE. The Purchase Price of a share of Common Stock purchased
for a Participant pursuant to each exercise of a Purchase Right shall be the
lesser of:

     (A) Eighty-five (85%) percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common
Stock on the Offering Date (or if such date is not a regular business day, then
on the first business day following the Offering Date); or

     (B) Eighty-five (85%) percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common
Stock on the Purchase Date (or if such date is not a regular business day, then
on the first business day preceding the Purchase Date).

     5.2 CALENDAR YEAR $25,000 LIMIT. Notwithstanding anything else contained
herein, no Employee may be granted a Purchase Right which permits such Employee
rights to purchase Common Stock under this Plan and any other qualified employee
stock purchase plan (within the meaning of Code Section 423) of the Corporation
and its Subsidiaries to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of the Fair
Market Value of such Common Stock for each calendar year in which a Purchase
Right is outstanding at any time. For purposes of this Section, Fair Market
Value shall be determined as of the Offering Date.

     5.3 LIMITS FOR FIRST FOUR OFFERING PERIODS. Notwithstanding anything else
contained herein, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that a
participant shall be eligible to purchase with respect to each of the first four
(4) Offering Periods under the Plan is 1,250 shares per Offering Period.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                             PURCHASING COMMON STOCK

     6.1 PARTICIPANT'S ACCOUNT. The Administrator shall establish a book account
in the name of each Participant. As discussed in Section 6.2 below, a
Participant's payroll deductions shall be credited to the Participant's account,
without interest, until such cash is withdrawn, distributed, or used to purchase
Common Stock as described below.

     During such time, if any, as the Corporation participates in a Direct
Registration System, shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of a Purchase
Right shall be directly registered in the name of the Participant. If the
Corporation does not participate in a Direct Registration System, then until
distribution is requested by a Participant pursuant to Article VII, stock
certificates evidencing the Participant's shares of Common Stock acquired upon
exercise of a Purchase Right shall be held by the Administrator as the nominee
for the Participant. These shares shall be credited to the Participant's
account. Certificates shall be held by the Administrator as nominee for
Participants solely as a matter of convenience. A Participant shall have all
ownership rights as to the shares credited to his or her account, and neither
the Administrator nor the Corporation shall have any ownership or other rights
of any kind with respect to any such certificates or the shares represented
thereby.

     All cash received or held by the Corporation under the Plan may be used by
the Corporation for any corporate purpose. The Corporation shall not be
obligated to segregate any assets held under the Plan.

     6.2 PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS; DIVIDENDS.

     (A) Payroll Deductions. By submitting a Request Form at any time during an
Offering Period (or in the case of the first Offering Period, on or after 1
August 1998 for payroll deductions beginning on or after 1 October 1998) in
accordance with rules adopted by the Committee, an Employee eligible to
participate in the Plan under Section 3.1 may authorize a payroll deduction to
purchase Common Stock under the Plan for the Offering Period. The payroll
deduction shall be effective on the first pay period commencing at least thirty
(30) days after receipt of the Request Form by the Administrator. The payroll
deduction shall be in any whole percentage up to a maximum of ten percent (10%)
of such Employee's Compensation payable each pay period, and at any other time
an element of Compensation is payable. A Participant's payroll deduction shall
not be less than one (1%) percent of such Employee's Compensation payable each
payroll period.

     (B) Dividends. Dividends paid on Common Stock which are credited to a
Participant's account as of the dividend payment date shall be paid to the
Participant as soon as practicable.

     6.3 DEDUCTION CHANGES AND DISCONTINUANCE. A Participant may increase,
decrease

                                      -6-

<PAGE>   7

or completely discontinue his or her payroll deductions by filing a new Request
Form with the Administrator. This increase, decrease or discontinuance shall be
effective on the first pay period commencing at least thirty (30) days after
receipt of the Request Form by the Administrator. A Participant who discontinues
his or her payroll deductions may not resume participation in the Plan until the
following Offering Period.

     Any amount held in the Participant's account after the effective date of
the discontinuance of his or her payroll deductions will either be refunded or
used to purchase Common Stock in accordance with Section 7.1.

     6.4 LEAVE OF ABSENCE; TRANSFER TO INELIGIBLE STATUS. If a Participant
either begins a leave of absence, is transferred to employment with a Subsidiary
not participating in the Plan, or remains employed with an Employer but is no
longer eligible to participate in the Plan, the Participant shall cease to be
eligible for payroll deductions to his or her account pursuant to Section 6.2.
The cash standing to the credit of the Participant's account shall become
subject to the provisions of Section 7.1.

     If the Participant returns from the leave of absence before being deemed to
have ceased employment with the Employer under Section 3.2, or again becomes
eligible to participate in the Plan, the Request Form, if any, in effect
immediately before the leave of absence or disqualifying change in employment
status shall be deemed void and the Participant must again complete a new
Request Form to resume participation in the Plan.

     6.5 AUTOMATIC EXERCISE. Unless the cash credited to a Participant's account
is withdrawn or distributed as provided in Article VII, his or her Purchase
Right shall be deemed to have been exercised automatically on each Purchase
Date, for the purchase of the number of full shares of Common Stock which the
cash credited to his or her account at that time will purchase at the Purchase
Price. The cash balance, if any, remaining in the Participant's account at the
end of an Offering Period shall be carried over to the next Offering Period,
without interest. The amount of cash that may be used to purchase shares of
Common Stock may not exceed the Compensation restrictions set forth in Section
6.2.

     If the cash credited to a Participant's account on the Purchase Date
exceeds the applicable Compensation restrictions of Section 6.2 or exceeds the
amount necessary to purchase the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
available during the Offering Period, such excess cash shall be refunded to the
Participant. The excess cash may not be used to purchase shares of Common Stock
under the Plan nor retained in the Participant's account for a future Offering
Period.

     Each Participant shall receive a statement on at least an annual basis
indicating the number of shares credited to his or her account under the Plan.

     6.6 LISTING, REGISTRATION, AND QUALIFICATION OF SHARES. The granting of
Purchase Rights for, and the sale and delivery of, Common Stock under the Plan
shall be subject to the effecting by the Corporation of any listing,
registration, or qualification of the shares subject to that Purchase Right upon
any securities exchange or under any federal or state law, or the

                                      -7-
<PAGE>   8

obtaining of the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body deemed
necessary or desirable for the issuance or purchase of the shares covered.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                           WITHDRAWALS; DISTRIBUTIONS

     7.1 DISCONTINUANCE OF DEDUCTIONS; LEAVE OF ABSENCE; TRANSFER TO INELIGIBLE
STATUS. In the event of a Participant's complete discontinuance of payroll
deductions under Section 6.3 or a Participant's leave of absence or transfer to
an ineligible status under Section 6.4, the cash balance then standing to the
credit of the Participant's account shall be:

     (A) returned to the Participant, in cash, without interest, as soon as
practicable, upon the Participant's written request received by the
Administrator at least thirty (30) days before the next Purchase Date; or

     (B) held under the Plan and used to purchase Common Stock for the
Participant under the automatic exercise provisions of Section 6.5.

     7.2 IN-SERVICE WITHDRAWALS. During such time, if any, as the Corporation
participates in a Direct Registration System, shares of Common Stock acquired
upon exercise of a Purchase Right shall be directly registered in the name of
the Participant and the Participant may withdraw certificates in accordance with
the applicable terms and conditions of such Direct Registration System. If the
Corporation does not participate in a Direct Registration System, (i) a
Participant may, while an Employee of the Corporation or any Subsidiary,
withdraw certificates for some or all of the shares of Common Stock credited to
his or her account at any time, upon thirty (30) days' written notice to the
Administrator, and (ii) each Participant shall be permitted only one withdrawal
under this Section each calendar quarter. If a Participant requests a
distribution of only a portion of the shares of Common Stock credited to his or
her account, the Administrator will distribute the oldest securities held in the
Participant's Account first, using a first in-first out methodology.

     7.3 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT FOR REASONS OTHER THAN DEATH. If a
Participant terminates employment with the Corporation and the Subsidiaries for
reasons other than death, the cash balance in the Participant's account shall be
returned to the Participant in cash, without interest, as soon as practicable.
Certificates for the shares of Common Stock credited to his or her account shall
be distributed to the Participant as soon as practicable, unless the Corporation
then participates in a Direct Registration System, in which case, the
Participant shall be entitled to evidence of ownership of such shares in such
form as the terms and conditions of such Direct Registration System permit.

     7.4 DEATH. In the event a Participant dies, the cash balance in his or her
account shall be distributed to the Participant's beneficiary, in cash, without
interest, as soon as practicable. Certificates for the shares of Common Stock
credited to the Participant's account shall be distributed to the beneficiary as
soon as practicable, unless the Corporation then

                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9

participates in a Direct Registration System, in which case, the beneficiary
shall be entitled to evidence of ownership of such shares in such form as the
terms and conditions of such Direct Registration System permit.

     In the event of the Participant's death, the Participant's beneficiary
shall be the person or entity identified on the Participant's employee data
record maintained by the Corporation or on such other form as determined by the
Administrator. This designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant
in accordance with procedures established by the Administrator.

     7.5 REGISTRATION. Whether represented in certificate form or by direct
registration pursuant to a Direct Registration System, shares of Common Stock
acquired upon exercise of a Purchase Right shall be directly registered in the
name of the Participant or, if the Participant so indicates on the Request Form,
(a) in the Participant's name jointly with a member of the Participant's family,
with the right of survivorship, (b) in the name of a custodian for the
Participant (in the event the Participant is under a legal disability to have
stock issued in the Participant's name), or (c) in a manner giving effect to the
status of such shares as community property. No other names may be included in
the Common Stock registration. The Corporation shall pay all issue or transfer
taxes with respect to the issuance or transfer of shares of such Common Stock,
as well as all fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Corporation in
connection with such issuance or transfer.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                            AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

     8.1 AMENDMENT. The Committee shall have the right to amend or modify the
Plan, in full or in part, at any time and from time to time; provided, however,
that no amendment or modification shall:

     (A) affect any right or obligation with respect to any grant previously
made, unless required by law, or

     (B) unless previously approved by the stockholders of the Corporation,
where such approval is necessary to satisfy federal securities laws, the Code,
or rules of any stock exchange on which the Corporation's Common Stock is
listed:

          (1) in any manner materially affect the eligibility requirements set
     forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2, or change the definition of Employer as set
     forth in Section 2.11,

          (2) increase the number of shares of Common Stock subject to any
     options issued to Participants (except as provided in Sections 4.2 and
     4.3), or

          (3) materially increase the benefits to Participants under the Plan.

     8.2 TERMINATION. The Committee may terminate the Plan at any time in its
sole and

                                      -9-

<PAGE>   10

absolute discretion. The Plan shall be terminated by the Committee if at any
time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for purposes of the Plan is
not sufficient to meet all purchase requirements, except as specified in Section
4.1.

     Upon termination of the Plan, the Administrator shall give notice thereof
to Participants and shall terminate all payroll deductions. Cash balances then
credited to Participants' accounts shall be distributed as soon as practicable,
without interest.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

stockholders of the Corporation, not later than twelve (12) months after
adoption of the Plan by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, pursuant to
Treasury regulation Section 1.423-2(c). If for any reason such approval is not
given by such date, the Plan shall be null and void, all payroll deductions to
the Plan shall cease, the cash balances and Common Stock credited to
Participants' accounts shall be promptly distributed to them, and any Common
Stock certificates issued and delivered to Participants prior to such date shall
remain the property of the Participants.

     9.2 EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS. Neither the establishment of the Plan, nor the grant
of any Purchase Rights thereunder, nor the exercise thereof shall be deemed to
give to any Employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Corporation
or any Subsidiary or to interfere with the right of the Corporation or any
Subsidiary to discharge any Employee or otherwise modify the employment
relationship at any time.

     9.3 TAX WITHHOLDING. The Administrator may make appropriate provisions for
withholding of federal, state, and local income taxes, and any other taxes, from
a Participant's Compensation to the extent the Administrator deems such
withholding to be legally required.

     9.4 RIGHTS NOT TRANSFERABLE. Rights and Purchase Rights granted under this
Plan are not transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws
of descent and distribution and are exercisable only by the Participant during
his or her lifetime.

obligation to repurchase from any Participant any shares of Common Stock
acquired under the Plan.

     9.6 GOVERNING LAW. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware except to the extent such laws
are preempted by the laws of the United States.

no Offering Period may begin until a Registration Statement under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, covering the shares to be issued under the Plan, has

                                     PURPOSE

     The purpose of this Medirisk, Inc. 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the
"Plan") is to promote the success, and enhance the value, of Medirisk, Inc. (the
"Corporation"), by linking the personal interests of its employees, officers and
directors to those of Corporation stockholders and by providing its employees,
officers and directors with an incentive for outstanding performance. The Plan
is further intended to provide flexibility to the Corporation in its ability to
motivate, attract, and retain the services of employees, officers and directors
upon whose judgment, interest, and special effort the successful conduct of the
Corporation's operation is largely dependent. Accordingly, the Plan permits the
grant of incentive awards from time to time to selected employees, officers and
directors

                                   ARTICLE II

                                 EFFECTIVE DATE

     The Plan shall be effective as of the date upon which it shall be approved
by the Board. However, the Plan shall be submitted to the stockholders of the
Corporation for approval within twelve (12) months of the Board's approval
thereof. No Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan may be exercised
prior to approval of the Plan by the stockholders, and if the stockholders fail
to approve the Plan within twelve months of the Board's approval hereof, any
Incentive Stock Options previously granted hereunder shall be automatically
converted to Nonqualified Stock Options without any further act. In the
discretion of the Committee, Awards may be made to Covered Employees which are
intended to constitute qualified performance-based compensation under Code
Section 162(m). Any such Awards shall be contingent upon the stockholders having
approved the Plan.

                                  STOCK OPTIONS

     7.1 GENERAL. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants
on the following terms and conditions:

     (A) EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price per share of Stock under an Option
shall be determined by the Committee.

     (B) TIME AND CONDITIONS OF EXERCISE. The Committee shall determine the time
or times at which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part. The Committee
also shall determine the performance or other conditions, if any, that must be
satisfied before all or part of an Option may be exercised. The Committee may
waive any exercise provisions at any time in whole or in part based upon factors
as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion so that the Option becomes
exercisable at an earlier date.

     (C) PAYMENT. The Committee shall determine the methods by which the
exercise price of an Option may be paid, the form of payment, including, without
limitation, cash, shares of Stock, or other property (including "cashless
exercise" arrangements), and the methods by which shares of Stock shall be
delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants; provided, however, that if
shares of Stock are used to pay the exercise price of an Option, such shares
must have been held by the Participant for at least six (6) months. Without
limiting the power and discretion conferred on the Committee pursuant to the
preceding sentence, the Committee may, in the exercise of its discretion, but
need not, allow a

                                       S 6
<PAGE>   7

Participant to pay the Option price by directing the Corporation to withhold
from the shares of Stock that would otherwise be issued upon exercise of the
Option that number of shares having a Fair Market Value on the exercise date
equal to the Option price, all as determined pursuant to rules and procedures
established by the Committee.

     (D) EVIDENCE OF GRANT. All Options shall be evidenced by a written Award
Agreement between the Corporation and the Participant. The Award Agreement shall
include such provisions, not inconsistent with the Plan, as may be specified by
the Committee.

     7.2 INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. The terms of any Incentive Stock Options
granted under the Plan must comply with the following additional rules:

     (A) EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price per share of Stock shall be set by
the Committee, provided that the exercise price for any Incentive Stock Option
shall not be less than the Fair Market Value as of the date of the grant.

     (B) EXERCISE. In no event may any Incentive Stock Option be exercisable for
more than ten (10) years from the date of its grant.

     (C) LAPSE OF OPTION. An Incentive Stock Option shall lapse under the
earliest of the following circumstances; provided, however, that the Committee
may, prior to the lapse of the Incentive Stock Option under the circumstances
described in paragraphs (3), (4) and (5) below, provide in writing that the
Option will extend until a later date, but if Option is exercised after the
dates specified in paragraphs (3), (4) and (5) below, it will automatically
become a Nonqualified Stock Option:

          (1) The Incentive Stock Option shall lapse as of the option expiration
     date set forth in the Award Agreement.

          (2) The Incentive Stock Option shall lapse ten (10) years after it is
     granted, unless an earlier time is set in the Award Agreement.

          (3) If the Participant terminates employment for any reason other than
     as provided in paragraph (4) or (5) below, the Incentive Stock Option shall
     lapse, unless it is previously exercised, three months after the
     Participant's termination of employment; provided, however, that if the
     Participant's employment is terminated by the Corporation for cause or by
     the Participant without the consent of the Corporation, the Incentive Stock
     Option shall (to the extent not previously exercised) lapse immediately.

          (4) If the Participant terminates employment by reason of his
     Disability, the Incentive Stock Option shall lapse, unless it is previously
     exercised, one year after the Participant's termination of employment.

          (5) If the Participant dies while employed, or during the three-month
     period described in paragraph (3) or during the one-year period described
     in paragraph (4) and before the Option otherwise lapses, the Option shall
     lapse one (1) year after the Participant's death. Upon the Participant's
     death, any exercisable Incentive Stock Options may be exercised by the
     Participant's beneficiary, determined in accordance with Section 13.6.

     Unless the exercisability of the Incentive Stock Option is accelerated as
provided in Article XIII, if a Participant exercises an Option after termination
of employment, the Option may be exercised only with respect to the shares that
were otherwise vested on the Participant's termination of employment.

     (D) INDIVIDUAL DOLLAR LIMITATION. The aggregate Fair Market Value
(determined as of the time an Award is made) of all shares of Stock with respect
to which Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in any
calendar year may not exceed One Hundred Thousand and No/100 ($100,000.00)
Dollars.

     (E) TEN PERCENT OWNERS. No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any
individual who, at the date of grant, owns stock possessing more than ten (10%)
percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the
Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary unless the exercise price per share of
such Option is at least one hundred ten (110%) percent of the Fair Market Value
per share of Stock at the date of grant and the Option expires no later than
five

                                       S 7

Option may be made pursuant to the Plan after the day immediately prior to the
tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date.

     (G) RIGHT TO EXERCISE. During a Participant's lifetime, an Incentive Stock
Option may be exercised only by the Participant or, in the case of the
Participant's Disability, by the Participant's guardian or legal representative.

     (H) DIRECTORS. The Committee may not grant an Incentive Stock Option to a
non-employee director. The Committee may grant an Incentive Stock Option to a
director who is also an employee of the Corporation or Parent or Subsidiary but
only in that individual's position as an employee and not as a director.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

part, as the Committee shall establish at grant or thereafter. The Committee
shall set performance goals and other terms or conditions to payment of the

they are met, will determine the number and value of Performance Shares that
will be paid to the Participant.

     9.3 OTHER TERMS. Performance Shares may be payable in cash, Stock, or other
property, and have such other terms and conditions as determined by the

Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall determine. If
certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock are registered in the name
of the Participant, certificates must bear an appropriate legend referring to
the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                              DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS

     The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to Participants
subject to such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Committee.
Dividend Equivalents shall entitle the Participant to receive payments equal to
dividends with respect to all or a portion of the number of shares of Stock
subject to an Award, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may provide
that Dividend Equivalents be paid or distributed when accrued or be deemed to
have been reinvested in additional shares of Stock, or otherwise reinvested.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                            OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS

     The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law,
to grant to Participants such other Awards that are payable in, valued in whole
or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to shares of Stock,
as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan,
including without limitation shares of Stock awarded purely as a "bonus" and not
subject to any restrictions or conditions, convertible or exchangeable debt
securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of Stock, and
Awards valued by reference to book value of shares of Stock or the value of
securities of or the performance of specified Parents or Subsidiaries. The
Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                         PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS

                                       S 9
<PAGE>   10

     13.1 STAND-ALONE, TANDEM AND SUBSTITUTE AWARDS. Awards granted under the
Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in
addition to, in tandem with, or in substitution for, any other Award granted
under the Plan. If an Award is granted in substitution for another Award, the
Committee may require the surrender of such other Award in consideration of the
grant of the new Award. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other
Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the
grant of such other Awards.

     13.2 EXCHANGE PROVISIONS. The Committee may at any time offer to exchange
or buy out any previously granted Award for a payment in cash, Stock, or another
Award (subject to Article XIV), based on the terms and conditions the Committee
determines and communicates to the Participant at the time the offer is made.

     13.3 TERM OF AWARD. The term of each Award shall be for the period as
determined by the Committee, provided that in no event shall the term of any
Incentive Stock Option or a Stock Appreciation Right granted in tandem with the
Incentive Stock Option exceed a period of ten (10) years from the date of its
grant (or, if Section 7.2(e) applies, five (5) years from the date of its
grant).

     13.4 FORM OF PAYMENT FOR AWARDS. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any
applicable law or Award Agreement, payments or transfers to be made by the
Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary on the grant or exercise of an Award may
be made in such form as the Committee determines at or after the time of grant,
including without limitation, cash, Stock, other Awards, or other property, or
any combination, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in
installments, or on a deferred basis, in each case determined in accordance with
rules adopted by, and at the discretion of, the Committee.

     13.5 LIMITS ON TRANSFER. No right or interest of a Participant in any
unexercised or restricted Award may be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to
or in favor of any party other than the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary,
or shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to
any other party other than the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary. No
unexercised or restricted Award shall be assignable or transferable by a
Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or,
except in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, pursuant to a domestic
relations order that would satisfy Section 414(p)(1)(A) of the Code if such
Section applied to an Award under the Plan; provided, however, that the
Committee may (but need not) permit other transfers where the Committee
concludes that such transferability (i) does not result in accelerated taxation,
(ii) does not cause any Option intended to be an incentive stock option to fail
to be described in Code Section 422(b), and (iii) is otherwise appropriate and
desirable, taking into account any factors deemed relevant, including without
limitation, state or federal tax or securities laws applicable to transferable
Awards.

     13.6 BENEFICIARIES. Notwithstanding Section 13.5, a Participant may, in the
manner determined by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the
rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any
Award upon the Participant's death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal
representative, or other person claiming any rights under the Plan is subject to
all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to the
Participant, except to the extent the Plan and Award Agreement otherwise
provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by
the Committee. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the
Participant, payment shall be made to the Participant's estate. Subject to the
foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant
at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Committee.

     13.7 STOCK CERTIFICATES. All Stock certificates delivered under the Plan
are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee
deems necessary or advisable to comply with federal or state securities laws,
rules and regulations and the rules of any national securities exchange or
automated quotation system on which the Stock is listed, quoted, or traded. The
Committee may place legends on any Stock certificate to reference restrictions
applicable to the Stock.

     13.8 ACCELERATION UPON DEATH OR DISABILITY. Notwithstanding any other
provision in the Plan or any Participant's Award Agreement to the contrary, upon
the Participant's death or Disability during his employment or service as a
director, all outstanding Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, and other Awards
in the nature of rights that

                                      S 10
<PAGE>   11

may be exercised shall become fully exercisable and all restrictions on
outstanding Awards shall lapse. Any Option or Stock Appreciation Rights Awards
shall thereafter continue or lapse in accordance with the other provisions of
the Plan and the Award Agreement. To the extent that this provision causes
Incentive Stock Options to exceed the dollar limitation set forth in Section
7.2(d), the excess Options shall be deemed to be Nonqualified Stock Options.

     13.9 ACCELERATION UPON A CHANGE-IN-CONTROL. Except as otherwise provided in
the Award Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Change-in-Control, all outstanding
Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, and other Awards in the nature of rights
that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable and all restrictions on
outstanding Awards shall lapse; provided, however, that such acceleration will
not occur if, in the opinion of the Company's accountants, such acceleration
would preclude the use of "pooling of interest" accounting treatment for a
Change-in-Control transaction that (a) would otherwise qualify for such
accounting treatment, and (b) is contingent upon qualifying for such accounting
treatment. To the extent that this provision causes Incentive Stock Options to
exceed the dollar limitation set forth in Section 7.2(d), the excess Options
shall be deemed to be Nonqualified Stock Options.

     13.10 ACCELERATION UPON CERTAIN EVENTS NOT CONSTITUTING A
CHANGE-IN-CONTROL. In the event of the occurrence of any circumstance,
transaction or event not constituting a Change-in-Control (as defined in Article
III) but which the Board of Directors deems to be, or to be reasonably likely to
lead to, an effective Change-in-Control of the Company of a nature that would be
required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of the 1934
Act, the Committee may in its sole discretion declare all outstanding Options,
Stock Appreciation Rights, and other Awards in the nature of rights that may be
exercised to be fully exercisable, and/or all restrictions on all outstanding
Awards to have lapsed, in each case, as of such date as the Committee may, in
its sole discretion, declare, which may be on or before the consummation of such
transaction or event. To the extent that this provision causes Incentive Stock
Options to exceed the dollar limitation set forth in Section 7.2(d), the excess
Options shall be deemed to be Nonqualified Stock Options.

     13.11 ACCELERATION FOR ANY OTHER REASON. Regardless of whether an event has
occurred as described in Section 13.9 or 13.10 above, the Committee may in its
sole discretion at any time determine that all or a portion of a Participant's
Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, and other Awards in the nature of rights
that may be exercised shall become fully or partially exercisable, and/or that
all or a part of the restrictions on all or a portion of the outstanding Awards
shall lapse, in each case, as of such date as the Committee may, in its sole
discretion, declare. The Committee may discriminate among Participants and among
Awards granted to a Participant in exercising its discretion pursuant to this
Section 13.11.

     13.12 EFFECT OF ACCELERATION. If an Award is accelerated under Section 13.9
or 13.10, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide (i) that the Award
will expire after a designated period of time after such acceleration to the
extent not then exercised, (ii) that the Award will be settled in cash rather
than Stock, (iii) that the Award will be assumed by another party to the
transaction giving rise to the acceleration or otherwise be equitably converted
in connection with such transaction, or (iv) any combination of the foregoing.
The Committee's determination need not be uniform and may be different for
different Participants whether or not such Participants are similarly situated.

     13.13 PERFORMANCE GOALS. The Committee may determine that any Award granted
pursuant to this Plan to a Participant (including, but not limited to,
Participants who are Covered Employees) shall be determined solely on the basis
of (a) the achievement by the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of a
specified target return, or target growth in return, on equity or assets, (b)
the Corporation's, Parent's or Subsidiary's stock price, (c) the achievement by
a business unit of the Corporation, Parent or Subsidiary of a specified target,
or target growth in, net income or earnings per share, or (d) any combination of
the goals set forth in (a) through (c) above. Furthermore, the Committee
reserves the right for any reason to reduce (but not increase) any Award,
notwithstanding the achievement of a specified goal. If an Award is made on such
basis, the Committee shall establish goals prior to the beginning of the period
for which such performance goal relates (or such later date as may be permitted
under Code Section 162(m) or the regulations thereunder). Any payment of an
Award granted with performance goals shall be conditioned on the written
certification of the Committee in each case that the performance goals and any
other material conditions were satisfied.

     13.14 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Whether military, government or other
service or other leave of absence shall constitute a termination of employment
shall be determined in each case by the Committee at its discretion, and any
determination by the Committee shall be final and conclusive. A termination of
employment shall not occur in a circumstance in which a Participant transfers
from the Corporation to one of its Parents or Subsidiaries, transfers from a

                                      S 11

<PAGE>   12

Parent or Subsidiary to the Corporation, or transfers from one Parent or
Subsidiary to another Parent or Subsidiary.

     13.15 LOAN PROVISIONS. With the consent of the Committee, the Corporation
may make, guarantee or arrange for a loan or loans to a Participant with respect
to the exercise of any Option granted under this Plan and/or with respect to the
payment of the purchase price, if any, of any Award granted hereunder and/or
with respect to the payment by the Participant of any or all federal and/or
state income taxes due on account of the granting or exercise of any Award
hereunder. The Committee shall have full authority to decide whether to make a
loan or loans hereunder and to determine the amount, terms and provisions of any
such loan or loans, including the interest rate to be charged in respect of any
such loan or loans, whether the loan or loans are to be made with or without
recourse against the borrower, the terms on which the loan is to be repaid and
the conditions, if any, under which the loan or loans may be forgiven.

                                   ARTICLE XIV

                          CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE

     In the event a stock dividend is declared upon the Stock, the shares of
Stock then subject to each Award shall be increased proportionately without any
change in the aggregate purchase price therefor. In the event the Stock shall be
changed into or exchanged for a different number or class of shares of stock or
securities of the Corporation or of another corporation, whether through
reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split-up, combination
of shares, merger or consolidation, there shall be substituted for each such
share of Stock then subject to each Award the number and class of shares into
which each outstanding share of Stock shall be so exchanged, all without any
change in the aggregate purchase price for the shares then subject to each
Award.

                                   ARTICLE XV

                     AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION

     15.1 AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION. The Board may, at any time
and from time to time, amend, modify or terminate the Plan without stockholder
approval; provided, however, that the Board or Committee may condition any
amendment or modification on the approval of stockholders of the Corporation if
such approval is necessary or deemed advisable with respect to tax, securities
or other applicable laws, policies or regulations.

     15.2 AWARDS PREVIOUSLY GRANTED. At any time and from time to time, the
Committee may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award without approval
of the Participant; provided, however, that such amendment, modification or
termination shall not, without the Participant's consent, reduce or diminish the
value of such Award determined as if the Award had been exercised, vested,
cashed in or otherwise settled on the date of such amendment or termination. No
termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect any
Award previously granted under the Plan, without the written consent of the
Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, absent prior approval of the
stockholders of the Corporation, no outstanding Award shall be (i) repriced by
lowering its exercise price, (ii) cancelled with subsequent replacement at a
lower exercise price, or (iii) regranted with a lower exercise price.

                                   ARTICLE XVI

                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

     16.1 NO RIGHTS TO AWARDS. No Participant or employee, officer or director
shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and neither the
Corporation nor the Committee is obligated to treat Participants and employees,
officers or directors uniformly.

     16.2 NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. No Award gives the Participant any of the
rights of a stockholder of the Corporation unless and until shares of Stock are
in fact issued to such person in connection with such Award.

                                      S 12

<PAGE>   13

     16.3 WITHHOLDING. The Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary shall have
the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to
remit to the Corporation, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and
local taxes (including the Participant's FICA obligation) required by law to be
withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of the Plan. With
respect to withholding required upon any taxable event under the Plan, the
Committee may, at the time the Award is granted or thereafter, require that any
such withholding requirement be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding
shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to
the amount to be withheld for tax purposes, all in accordance with such
procedures as the Committee establishes.

     16.4 NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT OR DIRECTORSHIP. Nothing in the Plan or any
Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the
Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary to terminate any Participant's
employment or status as an officer, director or consultant at any time, nor
confer upon any Participant any right to continue as an employee, officer,
director or consultant of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary.

     16.5 UNFUNDED STATUS OF AWARDS. The Plan is intended to be an "unfunded"
plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not
yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or
any Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights that are greater than
those of a general creditor of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary.

     16.6 RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER BENEFITS. No payment under the Plan shall be
taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement,
savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or benefit plan of the
Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary unless provided otherwise in such other
plan.

     16.7 EXPENSES. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the
Corporation and its Parents or Subsidiaries.

     16.8 TITLES AND HEADINGS. The titles and headings of the Sections in the
Plan are for convenience of reference only, and in the event of any conflict,
the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.

     16.9 GENDER AND NUMBER. Except where otherwise indicated by the context,
any masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine; the plural shall
include the singular and the singular shall include the plural.

     16.10 FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued and
the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in
lieu of fractional shares or whether such fractional shares shall be eliminated
by rounding up.

     16.11 GOVERNMENT AND OTHER REGULATIONS. The obligation of the Corporation
to make payment of awards in Stock or otherwise shall be subject to all
applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by government
agencies as may be required. The Corporation shall be under no obligation to
register under the 1933 Act, or any state securities act, any of the shares of
Stock paid under the Plan. The shares paid under the Plan may in certain
circumstances be exempt from registration under the 1933 Act, and the
Corporation may restrict the transfer of such shares in such manner as it deems
advisable to ensure the availability of any such exemption.

     16.12 GOVERNING LAW. To the extent not governed by federal law, the Plan
and all Award Agreements shall be construed in accordance with and governed by
the laws of the State of Delaware.

     16.13 ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS. Each Award Agreement may contain such other
terms and conditions as the Committee may determine, provided that such other
terms and conditions are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan.

     16.14 CODE SECTION 162(M). The deduction limits of Code Section 162(m) and
the regulations thereunder shall not apply to compensation payable under the
Plan until the expiration of the reliance period described in Treasury
Regulation 1.162-27(f) or any successor regulation.
