     3.  Termination  of Option Upon  Termination  of  Employment.  The right of

any unvested  portion of this Option shall  terminate when his  directorship  or
other employment with the Company or any Subsidiary is terminated for any reason
except as provided in subsections 3(a) and 3(b) below.
              (a) Exercise  following  Death. In the event  Participant dies
         while he is a director or is  otherwise  employed by the Company or any
         Subsidiary  or  within  three  months  following   termination  of  his

         shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and  distribution) may
         exercise  this  Option  at any  time  within  one year  next  following

         In the event of  termination  of  Participant's  directorship  or other
         employment by the Company or any  Subsidiary  for any reason other than
         death,  including  retirement  or  termination  approved by the Company
         because of  disability,  before  exercise in full or expiration of this
         Option,  Participant may exercise the vested and exercisable portion of
         this  Option  at any time  within  three  months  next  following  such
         termination  of  directorship  or other  employment  (but in any  event
         before  the  expiration  date of the Option  period)  for the number of
         shares remaining subject to the vested and exercisable  portion of this
         Option.

<PAGE>

     For  the  purposes  of  this  Section  3,  it  shall  not be  considered  a
termination  of  employment  if  Participant  is  placed by the  Company  or any
Subsidiary on military or sick leave or such other type of leave of absence that
the Committee  considers as continuing the employment  relationship  intact. For
the  purposes of this Section 3, only a  termination  of  directorship  or other
employment on or after the  Participant has reached age 65 shall be considered a
retirement, unless the Committee designates that an earlier termination shall be
considered a  retirement.  At the time of any  exercise of any Option  exercised
pursuant to this  Section 3, the Option  Price shall be paid in full as provided
in Section 2.
     Notwithstanding  subsections  3(a) and  3(b)  above,  in no event  may this
Option be exercised after the Expiration Date.
     4. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State
of Delaware.
     5.  Conflicts.  In the event of any conflict  between the provisions of the
Plan as in effect on the date of grant and the provisions of this Agreement, the
provisions of the Plan shall  govern.  All  references  herein to the Plan shall
mean the Plan as in effect on the date  hereof.  Terms  defined  in the Plan are
used herein as so defined.
     6. Participant Bound by Plan. In consideration of the grant of this Option,
Participant agrees he will comply with such conditions as the Board of Directors
and the Committee may impose on the exercise of the Option.

     7. Binding Effect. Subject to the limitations stated above and in the Plan,
this  Agreement  shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the legatees,
distributees and personal  representatives  of Participant and the successors of
the Company.
     8.  Change in  Capital  Stock  Structure.  In the event of  changes  in the
capital stock structure of the Company, appropriate adjustments in the number of
shares for which the Option  shall be  exercisable,  or the exercise  price,  or
both,  shall be made,  and  appropriate  adjustments  in the required  values of
Common  Stock  under  Section 3 shall be made,  as provided in Section 11 of the
Plan.
     9. Tax Obligations Upon Exercise.  The difference  between the "Fair Market
Value" of Company  Common Stock  purchased  when the Option is exercised and the
Option Price is  compensation  taxable to the Participant as ordinary income and
subject to applicable federal and state taxes which the Company may be obligated
to withhold. The Participant agrees to make arrangements suitable to the Company
for the  payment  of all  applicable  withholding  taxes,  if any.  By a  timely
election (to the extent  permitted by Rule 16b-3 under the  Securities  Exchange
Act of 1934),  the  Participant  may  elect to have the  Company  withhold  upon
exercise a number of shares of Company  Stock having a "Fair Market Value" equal
to the minimum applicable  withholding taxes. Any such election shall be subject
to approval by the Committee.

     10. Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding on the Company
and shall be enforceable against its successors and assigns.
     11. Notice  Provisions.  Any notice or election required or permitted under
this Option  shall be delivered  in writing to the  Treasurer  at the  Company's
principal offices in Parsippany, New Jersey.
     12.  Transfer of Shares of Company Stock.  Upon the exercise of the Option,
the Participant  shall not transfer,  encumber or dispose of the Common Stock so
purchased unless: (a) an effective  registration  statement covering such shares
is filed  pursuant to the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  and  applicable
state law, or (b) an opinion  letter of the  Participant's  counsel is obtained,
satisfactory  to the  Company  and its  counsel,  that such  transfer  is not in
violation of any applicable federal or state laws or regulations.
     13. Amendment of this Option Agreement.  The Board may modify or amend this
Option if it so determines, in its sole discretion,  that amendment is necessary
or advisable.  No amendment of this Option, however, may, without the consent of
the Participant, make any changes which would adversely affect the rights of the
Participant.
                                       8

     14. No Guaranteed  Right to  Employment.  If Participant is employed by the
Company, nothing contained herein shall confer upon the Participant any right to
be continued in the  employment  of the Company or interfere in any way with the
right of the Company to terminate his employment at any time for any cause.
     With this Option,  you will  receive a number of documents  relating to the
Company and a receipt for those documents.  You should sign the receipt for this

         while he is employed by the Company or any  Subsidiary  or within three
         months  following  termination  of his  employment due to retirement or
         disability  and  before  the  exercise  in full or  expiration  of this
         Option,  Participant's  estate  (or the  person or  persons to whom the

         rights  under  this  Option  shall  have  passed by will or the laws of
         descent and  distribution)  may exercise this Option at any time within
         one year next  following  Participant's  death (but in any event before
         the  expiration  date of the Option  period)  for the entire  number of
         shares remaining subject to this Option.

                  (b) Exercise following Termination,  Disability or Retirement.
         In the event of termination of Participant's  employment by the Company
         or any Subsidiary for any reason other than death, including retirement
         or termination  approved by the Company  because of disability,  before
         exercise in full or expiration of this Option, Participant may exercise
         the vested and  exercisable  portion of this  Option at any time within
         three months next following such  termination of employment (but in any
         event before the  expiration  date of the Option period) for the number
         of shares  remaining  subject to the vested and exercisable  portion of
         this  Option.

     For  the  purposes  of  this  Section  3,  it  shall  not be  considered  a
termination  of  employment  if  Participant  is  placed by the  Company  or any
Subsidiary on military or sick leave or such other type of leave of absence that
the Committee  considers as continuing the employment  relationship  intact. For
the purposes of this Section 3, only a termination of employment on or after the
Participant  has reached age 65 shall be  considered  a  retirement,  unless the
Committee   designates  that  an  earlier  termination  shall  be  considered  a
retirement. At the time of any exercise of any Option exercised pursuant to this
Section 3, the Option Price shall be paid in full as provided in Section 2.

     Notwithstanding  subsections  3(a) and  3(b)  above,  in no event  may this
Option be exercised after the Expiration Date.

this  Agreement  shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the legatees,
distributees and personal  representatives  of Participant and the successors of
the Company.
     8.  Change in  Capital  Stock  Structure.  In the event of  changes  in the
capital stock structure of the Company, appropriate adjustments in the number of
shares for which the Option  shall be  exercisable,  or the exercise  price,  or

Stock acquired upon  exercising the Option (i) within two years from the date on
which the Option was  granted or (ii) within one year from the date on which the
Company Common Stock was  transferred to  Participant.  If Participant  fails to
give the  Company  prompt  written  notice,  Participant  will be  liable to the
Company for any loss of deduction,  any penalty imposed, and any other financial
loss  incurred by the Company as a result of the  Participant's  failure to give
prompt notice.
     10. Tax Obligations Upon Exercise of Nonqualified Portion of Option. To the
extent  an  Option  is  treated  as a  nonqualified  stock  option  pursuant  to
subsection  2(d)(ii),  the difference between the "Fair Market Value" of Company
Common  Stock  purchased  when the Option is  exercised  and the Option Price is
compensation  taxable to the  Participant  as  ordinary  income  and  subject to
applicable  federal and state taxes which the Company is  obligated to withhold.
The  Participant  agrees to make  arrangements  suitable  to the Company for the
payment of all applicable withholding taxes. By a timely election (to the extent
permitted  by Rule  16b-3  under  the  Securities  Exchange  Act of  1934),  the
Participant  may elect to have the Company  withhold  upon  exercise a number of
Company  Shares  having a "Fair Market  Value"  equal to the minimum  applicable
withholding  taxes.  Any such  election  shall be  subject  to  approval  by the
Committee.
     11. Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding on the Company
and shall be enforceable against its successors and assigns.
     12. Notice  Provisions.  Any notice or election required or permitted under
this Option  shall be delivered  in writing to the  Treasurer  at the  Company's
principal offices in Parsippany, New Jersey.
     13.  Transfer of Shares of Company Stock.  Upon the exercise of the Option,
the Participant  shall not transfer,  encumber or dispose of the Common Stock so
purchased unless: (a) an effective  registration  statement covering such shares
is filed  pursuant to the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  and  applicable
state law, or (b) an opinion  letter of the  Participant's  counsel is obtained,
satisfactory  to the  Company  and its  counsel,  that such  transfer  is not in
violation of any applicable federal or state laws or regulations.
     14. Amendment of this Option Agreement.  The Board may modify or amend this
Option if it so determines, in its sole discretion,  that amendment is necessary
or advisable.  No amendment of this Option, however, may, without the consent of
the Participant, make any changes which would adversely affect the rights of the
Participant,  except  the Board may  unilaterally  amend the Plan and  Incentive
Awards as it deems  appropriate  to cause  Incentive  Stock  Options to meet the
requirements of the Code and regulations thereunder.
     15. No Guaranteed  Right to  Employment.  If Participant is employed by the
Company, nothing contained herein shall confer upon the Participant any right to
be continued in the  employment  of the Company or interfere in any way with the
right of the Company to terminate his employment at any time for any cause.
     With this Option,  you will  receive a number of documents  relating to the
Company and a receipt for those documents.  You should sign the receipt for this
