                              NBC ACQUISITION CORP.
                       2003 PERFORMANCE STOCK OPTION PLAN

SECTION 1.   PURPOSE.

         The purpose of this Plan is to promote the interests of NBC Acquisition
Corp. (the "Company") and its Affiliates, by (a) attracting, motivating and
retaining executive personnel of outstanding ability; (b) focusing the attention
of executive management on achievement of sustained long term results; (c)
fostering management's attention on overall corporate performance and thereby
promoting cooperation and teamwork among management of the operating units; and
(d) providing executives with a direct economic interest in the attainment of
demanding long term business objectives.

SECTION 2.    ADMINISTRATION.

        2.1 The Plan shall be administered by a committee (the "Committee")
appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), which
Committee shall consist of two or more directors. It is intended that each
director appointed to serve on the Committee shall be a "non-employee director"
(within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the "Act") or a person meeting any similar requirement under any
successor rule or regulation and an "outside director" (within the meaning of
section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and
the treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) to the extent Rule 16b and Code
section 162(m), respectively, are applicable; however, the mere fact that a
Committee member shall fail to qualify under either of the foregoing
requirements shall not invalidate any award made by the Committee which award is
otherwise validly made under the Plan. The members of the Committee may be
changed at any time and from time to time in the discretion of, the Board.

        2.2 The Committee shall have the authority (a) to exercise all of the
powers granted to it under the Plan, (b) to construe, interpret and implement
the Plan and any option agreements executed pursuant to the Plan, (c) to
prescribe, amend and rescind rules relating to the Plan, (d) to make any
determination necessary or advisable in administering the Plan, (e) to correct
any defect, supply any omission and reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan, (f)
to determine and to adjust performance targets (as described in Section 5) and
option allocations as it deems appropriate in general and to reflect
acquisitions, divestitures and other corporate transactions occurring during a
Fiscal Year, (g) to establish, amend, suspend, or waive such rules and
regulations and appoint such agents as it shall deem appropriate for the proper
administration of the Plan and (h) generally, to make any and all determinations
or adjustments and take any other action specified under the Plan or that the
Committee deems appropriate, necessary, or desirable to reflect the intent and
purposes of the Plan.

        2.3 Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, all designations,
determinations, interpretations, and other decisions under or with respect to
the Plan or any option or any option agreement pursuant to the Plan shall be
within the sole discretion of the Committee, may be made at any time and shall
be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties, including, without
limitation, the Company, any of its Affiliates, any grantee, any holder or
beneficiary of any option, and any shareholder.

        2.4 No member of the Committee shall be liable for any action or
determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any option granted
hereunder.

        2.5 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (a) until
the Board shall appoint the members of the Committee, the Plan shall be
administered by the Board, and (b) the Board may, in its sole discretion, at any
time and from time to time, resolve to administer the Plan. In either of the
foregoing events, the term Committee as used herein shall mean the Board.

SECTION 3.   ELIGIBILITY.

        Options under the Plan may be granted to such members of senior
management (including employees, officers and employee directors) of the Company
and its Affiliates ("Eligible Employees") as the Committee shall from time to
time in its sole discretion select. The Committee may, but shall not be required
to, consult with such executives of the Company and its Affiliates as it deems
appropriate prior to making such grants.

SECTION 4.    SHARES OF STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.

        4.1 Reserved Shares. Subject to Section 11 (relating to adjustments upon
changes in capitalization), the aggregate number of shares of Stock (as defined
in Section 6) that may be acquired under the Plan by any one Eligible Employee
and by all Eligible Employees pursuant to options granted hereunder shall not
exceed 43,000 shares. Shares of Stock covered by options granted under the Plan,
which options expire, terminate or are canceled for any reason (other than an
option, or part thereof, that is canceled by the Committee and for which cash is
paid in respect thereof) shall again become available for award under the Plan.

        4.2 Type of Shares. Shares of Stock that shall be subject to issuance
pursuant to the Plan shall be authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares.

SECTION 5.   STOCK OPTIONS.

        5.1 Grant and Type of Stock Options.

                (a) General. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee may
grant options to purchase shares of Stock in such amounts and subject to such
terms and conditions as the Committee shall from time to time in its sole
discretion determine.

                (b) If the Company attains the targets established by the
Committee in fiscal Year 2003, 2004, 2005 and/or 2006 (each a "level 1 target"),
following each such Fiscal Year the Committee will grant to Eligible Employees
collectively options to purchase 25% of the total number shares of Stock
available under the Plan, rounded down to the nearest whole share, to be
allocated among such Eligible Employees in such manner as the Committee, in its
discretion, determines.

<PAGE>
                                                                              3

                (c) If the Company does not attain the level 1 target but
attains lower targets established by the Committee in Fiscal Year 2003, 2004,
2005 and/or 2006 (each a "level 2 target") as of the commencement of Fiscal Year
2004, 2005, 2006 and/or 2007, as the case may be, the Committee will grant to
Eligible Employees options to purchase only a portion (to be determined by the
Committee) of the number of shares of Stock described in Section 5.1(c), to be
allocated among Eligible Employees in such manner as the Committee, in its
discretion, determines.

                (d) Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, if the
Company attains less than its level 2 targets in Fiscal Year 2003, 2004, 2005
and/or 2006, no options will be granted in respect of such Fiscal Year (i.e., in
Fiscal Year 2004, 2005, 2006 and/or 2007, as the case may be).

                (e) Subject to Section 4.1, the Committee, in its sole
discretion, may allocate additional options to Eligible Employees in respect of
any of Fiscal Years 2003, 2004, 2005 and/or 2006 if the Company attains more
than 100% of the level 1 target for the Fiscal Year immediately proceeding such
Fiscal Year.

                (f) Types of Options Under Plan.

                        (i) Options granted under the Plan may be either (A)
"nonqualified" stock options subject to the provisions of Code section 83, or
(B) options intended to qualify for incentive stock option treatment described
in section 422 of the Code; provided, however, that incentive stock options may
only be granted to employees of the Company or its "Parent Corporation" or
"Subsidiary Corporation" as those terms are defined in Code section 424.

                        (ii) All options when granted are intended to be
nonqualified stock options, unless the applicable option agreement explicitly
states that the option is intended to be an incentive stock option. If an option
is intended to be an incentive stock option, and if for any reason such option
(or any portion thereof) shall not qualify as an incentive stock option, then,
to the extent of such nonqualification, such option (or portion) shall be
regarded as a nonqualified stock option appropriately granted under the Plan;
provided that such option (or portion) otherwise meets the Plan's requirements
relating to nonqualified stock options.

        5.2 Agreements Evidencing Options.

                (a) General. Options granted under the Plan shall be evidenced
by written agreements, which shall (i) contain such provisions, not inconsistent
with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee may in its sole discretion deem
necessary or desirable and (ii) be referred to herein as "option agreements." If
the grantee is party to an employment or consulting agreement, the terms of
which relate to stock options and which are inconsistent with the terms of any
such option agreement, the terms of such option agreement shall govern.

<PAGE>
                                                                               4

                (b) Certain Terms. Each option agreement shall set forth the
number of shares of Stock subject to the option granted thereby and the amount
(the "option exercise price") payable by the grantee to the Company in
connection with the exercise of the option evidenced thereby. The exercise price
per share shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on
the date the option is granted. Each option agreement shall set forth conditions
subject to which the option evidenced thereby shall become exercisable.

        5.3 Exercisability of Options.

                (a) Standard Exercise Provisions. Subject to Section 5.5 and the
other terms of the Plan or as otherwise determined by the Committee:

                        (i) Each option shall become exercisable (A) with
respect to 25% of the shares of Stock subject thereto, rounded down to the next
lower full share, on the date of grant; and (B) with respect to an additional
25% on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant such that 100%
of the shares of Stock originally subject thereto are exercisable on the third
anniversary of the date of grant;

                        (ii) Each option shall become exercisable with respect
of 100% of the shares of Stock subject thereto in the event of grantee's
employment terminates by reason of death or disability;

                        (iii) In the Committee's sole discretion, each option or
portion thereof may become exercisable with respect to all or a portion of the
shares of Stock subject thereto in the event of a Change of Control (as defined
in Section 6);

                        (iv) Each option shall terminate and cease to be
exercisable on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant thereof; and

                        (v) Each option, once exercisable may be exercised from
time to time as to all or part of the full number of shares as to which such
option shall then be exercisable.

                (b) Notice of Exercise; Exercise Date.

                        (i) An option shall be exercisable by the filing of a
written notice of exercise with the Company, on such form and in such manner as
the Committee shall in its sole discretion prescribe, and by payment in
accordance with Section 5.4.

                        (ii) For purposes of the Plan, the "option exercise
date" shall be deemed to be the first business day immediately following the
date written notice of exercise is received by the Company.

<PAGE>

                                                                               5

        5.4 Payment of Option Price.

                (a) Tender Due Upon Notice of Exercise. Unless the applicable
option agreement otherwise provides or the Committee in its sole discretion
otherwise determines, (i) any written notice of exercise of an option shall be
accompanied by payment of the full purchase price for the shares being purchased
and (ii) the grantee shall have no right to receive shares of Stock with respect
to an option exercise prior to the option exercise date.

                (b) Manner of Payment. Payment of the option exercise price
shall be made in accordance with any of the following methods:

                        (i) by certified or official bank check payable to the
Company (or the equivalent thereof acceptable to the Committee);

                        (ii) with the consent of the Committee in its sole
discretion, by personal check (subject to collection);

                        (iii) if and to the extent provided in the applicable
option agreement, by delivery of previously acquired shares of Stock owned by
the grantee for at least six months having a Fair Market Value (determined as of
the option exercise date) equal to the portion of the option exercise price
being paid thereby, provided that the Committee may require the grantee to
furnish an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Committee to the effect that
such delivery would not result in the grantee incurring any liability under
Section 16(b) of the Act and does not require any Consent (as defined in Section
8.2);

                        (iv) any combination of (i), (ii) and (iii); and

                        (v) in any other manner permitted by law, as approved by
the Committee in its sole discretion.

                (c) Issuance of Shares. As soon as practicable after receipt of
full payment, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 8, deliver
to the grantee one or more certificates for the shares of Stock so purchased,
which certificates may bear such legends as the Company may deem appropriate
concerning restrictions on the disposition of the shares in accordance with
applicable securities laws, rules and regulations or otherwise.

        5.5 Termination of Employment.

                (a) General Rule. All options granted to a grantee shall
terminate and no longer be exercisable upon such grantee's termination of
employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates for any reason, except to
the extent post-employment exercise of the exercisable portion of an option (as
determined under Section 5.3) is permitted in accordance with this Section 5.5.

<PAGE>
                                                                               6

                (b) Cause. All options granted to a grantee shall terminate and
expire on the day the grantee's employment with the Company or any of its
Affiliates is terminated for Cause. For purposes of the Plan, a grantee's
employment shall be deemed to be terminated for "Cause" if (i) the grantee
neglects his duties, is convicted of any felony or gross misdemeanor (except
traffic related), is guilty of gross misconduct in connection with the
performance of his duties, or materially breaches affirmative or negative
covenants or undertakings under any employment or other agreement with the
Company or an Affiliate, or (ii) such grantee terminates his employment with the
Company or any of its Affiliates and the Committee determines, within 90 days
after the grantee's termination date, that such grantee's employment could have
been terminated for Cause pursuant to clause (i).

                (c) Death and Disability. If a grantee's employment with the
Company or any of its Affiliates is terminated by reason of death or
"disability" (as defined in section 2.2(e)(3) of the Code), all of the grantee's
options shall be exercisable by such grantee or, as the case may be, by such
grantee's court-appointed legal representative or, in the case of the grantee's
death, by the person or persons to whom such options pass under the grantee's
will (or, if applicable, pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution) until
the earlier of (i) one year after the grantee's termination by reason of death
or disability, and (ii) the date on which such options terminate or expire in
accordance with the other provisions of the Plan and the option agreement, not
to exceed ten years, as may be determined by the Committee.

                (d) Regular Termination; Leaves of Absence. If the grantee's
employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates is terminated for reasons
other than as provided in Section 5.5(b) or (c), the portion, if any, of options
granted to such grantee that were exercisable (as determined under Section 5.3)
immediately prior to such termination of employment may be exercised until the
earlier of (i) 90 days after the grantee's date of termination, and (ii) the
date on which such options terminate or expire in accordance with the other
provisions of the Plan and the option agreement, not to exceed ten years, as may
be determined by the Committee. The Committee may in its discretion determine
(x) whether any leave of absence (including short-term or long-term disability
or medical leave) shall constitute a termination of employment for purposes of
the Plan and (y) the impact, if any, of any such leave on outstanding awards
under the Plan.

        5.6 Special Incentive Stock Option Requirements.

                (a) Term. No incentive stock option may have a term in excess of
ten years.

                (b) 10% Owner. If an option granted under the Plan is intended
to be an incentive stock option and if the grantee, at the time of grant, owns
stock possessing 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes
of stock of the grantee's employer corporation or of its parent or subsidiary
corporation, then (a) the option exercise price per share shall in no event be
less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of such grant
and (b) such option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five years
after the date such option is granted.

<PAGE>
                                                                               7

                (c) $100,000 Per Year Limitation for Incentive Stock Options. To
the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant)
of Stock for which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by
any grantee during any calendar year (under all equity plans of the Company)
exceeds $100,000, such excess incentive stock options shall be treated as
nonqualified stock options.

SECTION 6.    CERTAIN DEFINITIONS.

        6.1 "Affiliate" shall mean, any person or entity which, at the time of
reference, directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls,
is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Company.

        6.2  "Change  of  Control" shall mean, with  respect to the  Company,  a

Wheat & Partners,  L.P. and its Affiliates,  acquires the collective  ability to
designate,  directly  or  indirectly,  a  majority  of the  members of the Board
(whether by contract or otherwise).

        6.3 "Effective Date" shall mean July 1, 2003.

        6.4 "Fair Market Value" shall mean as of any date in respect of any
share of Stock traded on a national securities exchange or on the National
Market System of the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated
Quotation System (the "Nasdaq"), the closing price of a share of Stock as
reported on the exchange on which such shares primarily trade or the Nasdaq, as
applicable, on such date. If Stock is not traded on any such exchange or the
Nasdaq on such date, Fair Market Value shall be determined by the Committee in
its sole discretion.

        6.5 "Fiscal Year" shall mean the fiscal year ending March 31, whether or
not such period is the fiscal year of the Company.

        6.6 "Plan" shall mean the NBC Acquisition Corp. 2003 Performance Stock
Option Plan.

        6.7 "Stock" shall mean common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the

such common stock shall thereafter be changed by reason of a recapitalization,
merger, consolidation, split-up, combination, exchange of shares or the like.

SECTION 7.    AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN; MODIFICATION OF OPTIONS.

        7.1 Plan Amendments. The Board may at any time and from time to time
alter, suspend, discontinue, amend or terminate the Plan in any respect
whatsoever, except that (i) no such amendment, termination or action shall
materially and adversely impair any rights under any option theretofore granted
under the Plan without either providing fair consideration to the grantee of

<PAGE>
                                                                               8

such option or obtaining the consent of the grantee of such option and (ii) no
such amendment, termination or action for which shareholder approval would be
required under any law, (including Code section 162(m) and Rule 16b-3, to the
extent applicable) or the rules of any securities exchange or other regulatory
organization shall be effective without such shareholder approval.

        7.2 Option Modifications. With the consent of the grantee and subject to
the terms and conditions of the Plan (including Section 7.1), the Committee may
amend outstanding option agreements with such grantee, including, without
limitation, any amendment that would (i) accelerate the time or times at which
an option may become exercisable and/or (ii) extend the scheduled termination or
expiration date of the option.

SECTION 8.    RESTRICTIONS.

        8.1 Consent Requirements. If the Committee shall at any time determine
that any Consent (as hereinafter defined) is necessary or desirable as a
condition of, or in connection with, the granting of any option under the Plan,
the acquisition, issuance or purchase of shares or other rights hereunder or the
taking of any other action hereunder (each such action, a "Plan Action"), then
such Plan Action shall not be taken, in whole or in part, unless and until such
Consent shall have been effected or obtained to the full satisfaction of the
Committee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if (i) the Company
may make any payment under the Plan in cash, Stock or both and (ii) the
Committee determines that a Consent is necessary or desirable as a condition of,
or in connection with, payment in any one or more of such forms, then the
Committee shall be entitled to determine not to make any payment whatsoever
until such Consent has been obtained.

        8.2 Consent Defined. The term "Consent" as used herein with respect to
any Plan Action means (a) any and all listings, registrations or qualifications
in respect thereof upon any securities exchange to other regulatory organization
or under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation, (b) the
expiration, elimination or satisfaction of any prohibitions, restrictions or
limitations under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation or the
rules of any securities exchange or other regulatory organization, (c) any and
all written agreements and representations by the grantee with respect to the
disposition of shares, or with respect to any other matter which the Committee
shall deem necessary or desirable to comply with the terms of any such listing,
registration or qualification or to obtain an exemption from the requirement
that any such listing, qualification or registration be made, and (d) any and
all consents, waivers, clearances and approvals in respect of a Plan Action by
any governmental or other regulatory bodies or any parties to any loan
agreements or other contractual obligations of the Company or any of its
Affiliates.

SECTION 9.   NONTRANSFERABILITY.

        During the lifetime of the grantee, all rights with respect to any
option granted to the grantee shall be exercisable only by the grantee or the
grantee's court-appointed legal representative. No option may be assigned,

<PAGE>

                                                                               9

alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a
grantee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and
any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or
encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or its
Affiliates; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute
an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may provide in an applicable option
agreement that a nonqualified stock option may be transferred, without
consideration, for estate planning purposes, to a family trust or family
partnership for the benefit of immediate members of the grantee's family.

SECTION 10.   WITHHOLDING TAXES.

        10.1 General. Whenever under the Plan shares of Stock are to be
delivered pursuant to the exercise of an option, the Committee may require as a
condition of delivery that the grantee remit an amount sufficient to satisfy all
federal, state and other governmental withholding tax requirements related
thereto. Whenever cash is to be paid under the Plan, the Company may, as a
condition of its payment, deduct therefrom, or from any salary or other payments
due to the grantee, an amount sufficient to satisfy all federal, state and other
governmental withholding tax requirements related thereto or to the delivery of
any shares of Stock under the Plan.

        10.2 Use of Shares. Subject to the Committee's consent, a grantee may
elect to satisfy all or part of the foregoing withholding requirements (a) by
delivery of unrestricted shares of Stock owned by the grantee for at least six
months (or such other period as the Committee may determine) having a Fair
Market Value (determined as of the date of such delivery by the grantee) equal
to all or part of the amount to be so withheld; provided that the Committee may
require, as a condition of accepting any such delivery, the grantee to furnish
an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Committee to the effect that such
delivery would not result in the grantee incurring any liability under Section
16(b) of the Act or any other federal or state securities laws, rules or
regulations, or (b) by having the Company withhold from the number of shares of
Stock otherwise issuable pursuant to the exercise or settlement of an option a
number of shares of Stock with a Fair Market Value equal to such withholding
liability.

SECTION 11.   ADJUSTMENTS.

        11.1 Upon Changes in Capitalization. To the extent specified by the
Committee, the number of shares of Stock that may be issued pursuant to options
under the Plan, the number of shares of Stock subject to options, the exercise
price of options theretofore granted under the Plan and the amount payable by a
grantee in respect of an option shall be appropriately adjusted (as the
Committee may determine) for any change in the number of issued shares of Stock
resulting from the subdivision or combination of shares of Stock or other
capital adjustments, or the payment of a stock dividend after the Effective
Date, or other change in such shares of Stock effected without receipt of
consideration by the Company; provided that any options covering fractional
shares of Stock resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated.
Adjustments under this Section 11 shall be made by the Committee, whose
determination as to what adjustments shall be made, and the extent thereof,
shall be final, binding and conclusive.

<PAGE>
                                                                              10

        11.2 Other. In the event of any acquisition, divestiture or any other
corporate transaction of any kind involving the Company or its Affiliates which
the Committee, in its discretion, determines to be of such a kind or nature as
to make appropriate an amendment or adjustment to the Plan in order to
effectuate the intent and purposes of the Plan, the Committee, in its
discretion, may make such amendment or adjustment. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Committee, in its discretion, may, in
connection with any such corporate transaction, (a) reduce or increase the
performance targets established under Section 2, and/or (b) amend any other
terms or provisions of the Plan, all as it deems appropriate to effectuate the
intent and purposes of the Plan.

SECTION 12.    RIGHT OF DISCHARGE RESERVED.

        Nothing in the Plan or in any option agreement shall confer upon any
person the right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate or
affect or restrict any right which the Company or any Affiliate may have to
terminate the employment of such person.

SECTION 13.    NO RIGHTS TO AWARDS; NO RIGHTS AS A SHAREHOLDER.

                (a) No employee, officer or employee director of the Company or
any of its Affiliates or other person shall have any claim or right to be
granted an option under the Plan or, having been selected the grant of an
option, to be selected for a grant of any other option.

<PAGE>

                (b) No grantee or other person shall have any of the rights of a
shareholder of the Company with respect to shares of Stock subject to an option
until the issuance of a stock certificate to such grantee for such shares of
Stock. Except as otherwise provided in Section 11, no adjustment shall be made
for dividends, distributions or other rights (whether ordinary or extraordinary,
and whether in cash, securities or other property) for which the record date is
prior to the date such stock certificate is issued.

SECTION 14.    NATURE OF PAYMENTS.

        14.1 Consideration. All options, shares or payments hereunder shall be
granted, issued, delivered or paid, as the case may be, in consideration of
services performed for the Company or for its Affiliates by the grantee.

        14.2 Other Plans. No options, shares or payments hereunder shall, unless
otherwise determined by the Committee, be taken into account in computing the
grantee's salary or compensation for the purposes of determining any benefits
under (a) any pension, retirement, life insurance or other benefit plan of the
Company or any Affiliate or (b) any agreement between the Company or any
Affiliate and the grantee.

        14.3 Waiver. By accepting an option under the Plan, the grantee thereby
waives any claim to the continued exercisability of an option or to damages or
severance entitlement related to non-continuation of the option beyond the
period provided herein or in the applicable option agreement, notwithstanding
any contrary provision in any written employment contract with the grantee,
whether any such contract is executed before or after the grant date of the
option.

SECTION 15.    NON-UNIFORM DETERMINATIONS.

        The Committee's determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and
may be made by it selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible to
receive, options under the Plan (whether or not such persons are similarly
situated). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall
be entitled, among other things, to make non-uniform and selective
determinations, and to enter into non-uniform and selective option agreements,
as to (a) the persons to receive options under the Plan, (b) the terms and
provisions of options under the Plan and (c) the treatment of leaves of absence
pursuant to Section 5.5(d).

SECTION 16.   NON EXCLUSIVITY OF THE PLAN; OTHER PAYMENTS OR OPTIONS.

        Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed in any way to limit or
restrict the Company, any Affiliate or the Committee from making any option,
award or payment to any person under any other plan, arrangement or
understanding, whether now existing or hereafter in effect; provided, however,
that the option agreement may contain (but shall not be required to contain)
such provisions as the Committee deems appropriate to insure that the penalty
provisions of Code section 4999 will not apply with respect to any option
granted under the Plan.

SECTION 17.   REORGANIZATION.

        In the event that the Company is merged or consolidated with another
corporation and, (whether or not the Company shall be the surviving
corporation), or in the event there shall be any change in the shares of Stock
by reason of such merger or consolidation, or in the event that all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company are acquired by another person,
or in the event of a Change of Control after the date of the adoption of this
Plan or in the event of a reorganization or liquidation of the Company (each
such event, a "Reorganization Event") or in the event that the Board shall
propose that the Company enter into a Reorganization Event, then the Committee
may, in its discretion, by written notice to a grantee, provide that such
grantee's options will be terminated unless exercised within 30 days (or such
longer period as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion) after the
date of such notice. The Committee also may, in its discretion, by written
notice to a grantee, provide that all or some of the restrictions on any of his
options may lapse in the event of a Reorganization Event upon such terms and
conditions as the Committee may determine. Whenever deemed appropriate by the
Committee, the actions referred to in this Section 17 may be made conditional
upon the consummation of the applicable Reorganization Event.

SECTION 18.    GOVERNING LAW.

        The Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without
regard to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof, or principles of
conflicts of laws of any other jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

SECTION 19.    MISCELLANEOUS.

                (a) Headings. The Section headings contained herein are for
convenience only and are not intended to define or limit the contents of said
Sections.

                (b) Reliance on Reports. Each member of the Committee and each
member of the Board shall be fully justified in relying, acting or failing to
act, and shall not be liable for having so relied, acted or failed to act in
good faith, upon any report made by the independent public accountant of the
Company and upon any other information furnished in connection with the Plan by
any person or persons other than himself.

                (c) Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be
borne by the Company and its Affiliates.

                (d) Pronouns. Masculine pronouns and other words of masculine
gender shall refer to both men and women.

                (e) Termination of Employment. Unless an applicable option
agreement provides otherwise, for purposes of the Plan a person who transfers
from employment with the Company to employment with an Affiliate or vice versa
shall not be deemed to have terminated employment with the Company or the
Affiliate, as the case may be.

                (f) Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any option
agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction or as to any person or option, or would disqualify the Plan or
any option under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision
shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws, or if it
cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the
Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the option, such
provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or option and the
remainder of the Plan and any such option shall remain in full force and effect.

                (g) Payments to Persons Other Than Grantees. If the Committee
shall find that any person to whom any amount is payable under the Plan is
unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, or is a minor, or
has died, then any payment due to such person or his estate (unless a prior
claim therefor has been made by a duly appointed legal representative) may, if
the Committee so directs the Company, be paid to his spouse, child, relative, an
institution maintaining or having custody of such person, or any other person
deemed by the Committee to be a proper recipient on behalf of such person
otherwise entitled to payment. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of
the liability of the Committee and the Company and its Affiliate therefor.

                (h) No Liability of Committee Members. No member of the
Committee shall be personally liable by reason of any contract or other
instrument executed by such member or on his behalf in his capacity as a member
of the Committee nor for any mistake of judgment made in good faith, and the
Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Committee and each
other employee, officer or employee director of the Company to whom any duty or
power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan may be
allocated or delegated, against any cost or expense (including counsel fees) or
liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim) arising out of any
act or omission to act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such
person's own fraud or willful bad faith; provided, however, that approval of the
Board shall be required for the payment of any amount in settlement of a claim
against any such person. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be
exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be
entitled under the Company's Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws, as a matter
of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them
or hold them harmless.

SECTION 20.    EFFECTIVE DATE; TERM.

        20.1 Effective Date. The Plan shall be deemed adopted and become
effective upon the Effective Date; provided that, notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan, no option granted under the Plan shall be exercisable
unless the Plan is approved, directly or indirectly, by the express consent of
shareholders holding at least a majority of the Company's voting stock voting in
person or by proxy at a duly held shareholders' meeting (or by written consent
in lieu of meeting) within 12 months before or after the date the Plan is
adopted.

        20.2 Term. The Plan shall terminate ten years after the earlier of the
Effective Date or is approved by shareholders, and no options shall thereafter
be granted under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all options granted
under the Plan prior to such termination date shall remain in effect and shall
be administered in accordance with the terms of the Plan until such options have
been exercised or terminated in accordance with the terms and provisions of the
Plan and the applicable option agreement.
