otherwise provided by the Board in an Option Agreement, Options will have a
term of ten (10) years from the Date of Grant, subject to Article VII hereof.

Option Agreement, if an Optionee's employment or other service with the Company
shall be terminated as a result of his or her permanent and total disability

power to make all determinations regarding the termination of any participant's
employment, including, but not limited to, the effective time thereof for the

acquired by an Optionee under the Plan shall, for so long as such securities are
not Publicly Traded, be subject to a "Call Option" of the Company, its successor
or its designee as described in the Option Agreement. The Call Option shall

the Company or its successor and shall relate to all shares of Common Stock
owned by the Optionee at the time of such termination, as well as all shares
acquired by the Optionee following termination, that have been issued pursuant
to an Option under the Plan. The Call Option shall be exercisable by the Company
or its designee at the time and in the manner set forth in the Option Agreement
and, upon the exercise thereof, shall require the Optionee to transfer the
subject Common Stock to the Company, its successor or its designee upon payment

the Optionee to any third party.

     8.4 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. In the event of a Sale of the Company in which
the Options are assumed or substituted in accordance with Section 5.3 hereof
into a stock option to purchase shares of the Company or a successor corporation
(or any parent or subsidiary thereof) that are not Publicly Traded, all such
shares acquired by an Optionee under the Plan shall, for so long as such
securities are not Publicly Traded, be subject to a "Right of First Refusal" of
the Company, its successor or its designee as described in the Option Agreement.

Company or its successor exercises the Right of First Refusal, the Optionee
shall be obligated to transfer the shares to the Company or its successor at the
price and on the other terms and conditions set forth in the Right of First
Refusal. The Right of First Refusal shall survive the transfer of any shares
subject to the Right by the Optionee to any third party.

right to continue in the capacity in which he or she is employed by or otherwise
provides services to the Company or any affiliated company.

issuance to the Optionee of a stock certificate evidencing such shares.

     (b) Nothing in this Agreement or the Option shall confer upon the Optionee
any right to continue in employment with the Company or to interfere in any way
with the right of the Company to terminate the employment of the Optionee at any
time.

and/or the Option Price of such Option Shares shall be adjusted in accordance
with the provisions of the Plan.

transferred, pledged, assigned, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of in any way
by the Optionee, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In

Article II of the Plan), for so long as such shares are not Publicly Traded, any
shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired by the Optionee pursuant to
this Agreement that have been held by the Optionee for a period of at least six

Market Value (as determined pursuant to the Plan) of the shares on the date of
such termination of employment. To exercise the Put Option, the Optionee shall

Article II of the Plan), for so long as such shares are not Publicly Traded, all
shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired by the Optionee pursuant to

only upon the termination of the Optionee's employment with the Company, and
shall require the Optionee to transfer shares of Common Stock or other
securities to the Company or its designee upon payment by the Company or such
designee of a call price per share equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined
pursuant to the Plan) at the time of Transfer. To exercise the Call Option, the
Company or its designee shall notify the Optionee in writing of the company's
decision to exercise the Call Option and the number of Option Shares for which
the Call Option is being exercised and may require that the Optionee provide the
Company with any other information as it shall request. The Call Option shall
survive the transfer or any shares

into a stock option to purchase shares of the Company or a successor corporation
(or any parent or subsidiary thereof) that are not Publicly Traded (as defined
in Article II of the Plan), for so long as such shares are not Publicly Traded,

the Optionee shall be obligated to transfer the shares to the Company or its
successor at a price per share equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined
pursuant to the Plan) at the time of transfer. The Right of First Refusal shall
survive the transfer of any shares subject to the Right by the Optionee to any
third Party.

     (d) LEGENDS. In addition to any legend required under Section 8(c) hereof,
the certificates representing the Option Shares shall bear a legend (which
legend shall be removed upon assumption or substitution of the Option in
accordance with Section 5.3 of the Plan into an option to acquire shares that
are Publicly Traded) to the following effect:
