</TABLE>

This Option will vest on those dates only if you have been an Employee
continuously since the Date of Grant through the vesting date. You may
exercise your Option for vested portions at any time before the time the
Option terminates. The termination time is described in paragraph 4 hereof.

         3. METHOD OF EXERCISE. You may exercise your Option only by written
or recorded electronic notice (the "EXERCISE NOTICE") delivered to the
Company's Human Resources Department or designee, in accordance with
instructions generally applicable to all option holders, during the term of
the Option. The notice must:

             (a) State the number of shares of Stock being purchased (which
must be a whole number of shares);

             (b) Be signed or otherwise given by you (or by the person
authorized by you in case of your death or Disability);

             (c) Be accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price for all
shares of Stock being purchased (unless you have provided for payment through
a brokerage firm or other means pursuant to this Agreement); and

             (d) Be accompanied by payment of the amount that the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries is required to withhold for federal income or other
tax purposes (unless you have provided for payment of those taxes to the
Company in another manner permitted under this Agreement).

                                       5
<PAGE>

The Option will not be deemed to have been exercised unless all of these
requirements are satisfied.

         4. DURATION. The Option will terminate on the date ten years from
the Date of Grant unless it terminates earlier according to any of the
provisions this Agreement.

         5. PAYMENT PROVISIONS.

             (a) MEDIUM OF PAYMENT. Payment for the Exercise Price for all
shares of Stock being purchased must be made in either (1) cash or an
equivalent means acceptable to the Company, or (2) on the Company's prior
consent, with shares of Stock owned by you (including shares received upon
exercise of the Option or restricted shares, if any, already held by you) and
having a Fair Market Value at least equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for
the shares of Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised, or
(3) by any combination of clauses (1) and (2). If the Company chooses to
accept shares of Stock in payment of all or any portion of the Exercise Price,
then (for purposes of payment of the Exercise Price) those shares of Stock
shall be deemed to have a cash value equal to their aggregate Fair Market
Value determined as of the date of the delivery of the Exercise Notice. If the
Company elects to accept shares of restricted Stock in payment of all or any
portion of the Exercise Price, then an equal number of shares issued pursuant
to the exercise shall be restricted on the same terms and for the restriction
period remaining on the shares used for payment.

             (b) PAYMENT WITH SALE PROCEEDS. In addition, at your request and
to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company may (but shall not be
required to) approve arrangements with a brokerage firm under which that
brokerage firm, on your behalf, shall pay to the Company the Exercise Price of
the Option being exercised (either as a loan to you or from the proceeds of
the sale of Stock issued pursuant to that exercise of the Option), and the
Company shall promptly cause the exercised shares to be delivered to the
brokerage firm. Such transactions shall be effected in accordance with the
procedures that the Company may establish from time to time.

         6. MODIFICATION, EXTENSION AND RENEWAL OF OPTIONS. Subject to any
consent required by the last two sentences of this Paragraph 6, the Company
may (a) modify, extend or renew the Option, (b) accept the surrender of all or
any portion of the Option (to the extent not previously exercised) and
authorize the granting of new options in substitution for the outstanding
Option (to the extent not previously exercised). Nevertheless, without your
consent or unless otherwise contemplated in this Agreement, the Company may
not modify the Option so as to specify a higher Exercise Price. In addition,
without your consent or unless otherwise contemplated in this Agreement, no
modification of the Option shall materially alter or impair any of your rights
under this Agreement or materially increase your obligations hereunder. Unless
otherwise determined by the Company, if any such modification is effected by
amendment, the effective date of such amendment shall be the Date of Grant.

         7. ADJUSTMENT PROVISIONS.

             (a) ADJUSTMENT OF AWARD. The number of shares of Stock that may
be acquired under the Option shall be subject to adjustment, from time to
time, in accordance with the following provisions:

                 (i) If at any time or from time to time, the Company shall
subdivide as a whole (by reclassification, by a Stock split, by the issuance
of a distribution on Stock payable in Stock or otherwise) the number of shares
of Stock then outstanding into a greater number of shares of Stock, then (a)
the number of shares that may be acquired under the Option shall be increased
proportionately, and (b) the Exercise Price for each share of Stock subject to
the Option shall be reduced proportionately, without changing the aggregate
purchase price or value as to which the Option remains exercisable.

                 (ii) If at any time or from time to time, the Company shall
consolidate as a whole (by reclassification, reverse Stock split, or
otherwise) the number of shares of Stock then outstanding into a lesser number
of shares of Stock, then (a) the number of shares that may be acquired under
the Option shall be decreased proportionately, and (b) the Exercise Price for
each share of Stock subject to the Option shall be increased proportionately,
without changing the aggregate purchase price or value as to which the Option
remains exercisable.

                 (iii) Whenever the number of shares of Stock subject to the
Option is required to be adjusted as provided in this Paragraph 7(a), the
Company shall, within thirty (30) days following such adjustment,

                                       6
<PAGE>

prepare and give to you a written notice setting forth, in reasonable detail,
the event requiring adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by
which such adjustment was calculated, and the change in price and the number of
shares of Stock, other securities, cash or property purchasable subject to the
Option after giving effect to the adjustment.

                 (iv) Adjustments under Paragraph 7(a)(i) and (ii) shall be
made by the Company, and its determination as to what adjustments shall be
made and the extent thereof shall be final, binding and conclusive. No
fractional interest shall be issued on account of any such adjustments.

             (b) CHANGE IN CONTROL. Upon the occurrence of a Change in
Control, but only if approved by the Company in its sole and absolute
discretion, the Option shall immediately become fully vested and exercisable
in full, including that portion of the Option that pursuant to the terms and
provisions of this Agreement had not yet become exercisable (the total number
of shares of Stock as to which the Option is exercisable upon the occurrence
of a Change in Control is referred to herein as the "TOTAL SHARES"). If a
Change in Control involves a Restructure or occurs in connection with a series
of related transactions involving a Restructure and if such Restructure is in
the form of a Non-Surviving Event and as a part of such Restructure shares of
stock, other securities, cash or property shall be issuable or deliverable in
exchange for Stock, then you shall be entitled to purchase (in lieu of the
Total Shares that you would otherwise be entitled to purchase) the number of
shares of stock, other securities, cash or property to which that number of
Total Shares would have been entitled in connection with such Restructure at
an aggregate exercise price equal to the Exercise Price that would have been
payable if that number of Total Shares had been purchased on the exercise of
the Option immediately before the consummation of the Restructure.

             (c) RESTRUCTURE AND NO CHANGE IN CONTROL. In the event a
Restructure should occur at any time prior to the vesting of the Option as
described in Paragraph 2 hereunder and that Restructure does not occur in
connection with a Change in Control or in connection with a series of related
transactions involving a Change in Control, then the outstanding Option shall
not immediately become fully vested and exercisable in full merely because of
the occurrence of the Restructure.

         8. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

             (a) TERMINATION AFTER CHANGE IN CONTROL. Notwithstanding the
terms and provisions set forth in Paragraphs 7(b) or 8(b) of the Agreement, if
your employment relationship with the Company and its subsidiaries is
terminated after, but within one year from, the occurrence of a Change in
Control and such termination is by the Company and is for any reason other
than Cause, then this Option will immediately become fully vested and
exercisable in full, including that portion, if any, of the Option that
pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement had not yet become
exercisable, and this Option shall survive the termination of your employment
and shall be exercisable for a period of the lesser of (1) the remainder of
the original term of this Option or (2) one year following the date of such
termination.

             (b) OTHER TERMINATION. Subject to Paragraph 8(a), if your
employment relationship with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated
for any reason other than for your Retirement, death or Disability, then the
following provisions shall apply to this Option:

                 (i) if the termination is by the Company then the following
provisions shall apply: (x) if the termination is for Cause, then that
portion, if any, of the Option that pursuant to the terms and provisions of
this Agreement had not yet become exercisable as of the date of termination
shall become null and void as of the date of termination; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that the portion, if any, of the Option that is exercisable as of the date of
such termination shall survive such termination and shall be exercisable for a
period of the lesser of (1) the remainder of the term of the Option, as
described in Paragraph 4, or (2) three (3) days following the date of such
termination, and (ii) if the termination is not for Cause, then that portion,
if any, of the Option that pursuant to the terms and provisions of this
Agreement had not yet become exercisable as of the date of the termination
shall become null and void as of the date of the termination; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the portion, if any, of the Option that is exercisable as of the
date of such termination shall survive such termination and shall be
exercisable for a period of the lesser of (1) the remainder of the term of the
Option, as described in Paragraph 4, or (B) 180 days following the date of
such termination; and

                 (ii) if such termination is by you, then unless otherwise
agreed by the Company, this Option, whether or not then exercisable, shall
become null and void as of the date of the termination.

distributees for a period of the lesser of (a) the remainder of the term of
this Option, as described in Paragraph 4, or (b) one year following the date
of your death. Any portion of the Option not exercised upon expiration of the
periods specified in (a) or (b) shall be null and void. Except as expressly
set forth in this Paragraph 9, the Option shall not be exercisable after your
death.

         10. RETIREMENT. If your employment relationship is terminated by
reason of your Retirement, then that portion, if any, of the Option that

exercisable shall immediately become fully vested and exercisable in full by
you, your guardians or legal representatives for a period of the lesser of (a)
the remainder of the term of the Option, as described in Paragraph 4, or (b)
one year following the date on which your employment is terminated due to your
Disability.

         12. LEAVE OF ABSENCE. With respect to the Option, the Company may, in
its sole discretion, determine that if you are on leave of absence for any
reason you will be considered to still be in the employ of the Company,
provided that rights to the Option during a leave of absence will be limited
to the extent to which those rights were earned or vested when the leave of
absence began.

         13. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF AWARD. The Option shall be exercisable
during your lifetime only by you or your guardian or legal representative. You
may not, without the Company's prior written consent, or other than by will or
the laws of descent and distribution, assign this Option or any of your rights
hereunder to any other person, and any attempted or purported assignment
without such prior written consent shall be void.

         14. DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES OF STOCK. After the exercise of the
Option and subject to Paragraph 15, the Company shall promptly issue and
deliver a certificate representing the number of shares of Stock as to which
the Option has been exercised after the Company receives (a) an Exercise
Notice, (b) the Exercise Price, and (c) any tax withholding as may be
requested. The value of the shares of Stock shall not bear any interest owing
to the passage of time.

         15. CONDITIONS TO DELIVERY OF STOCK. Nothing herein shall require the
Company to issue any shares with respect to the Option if that issuance would,
in the opinion of counsel for the Company, constitute a violation of the
Securities Act of 1933 or any similar or superseding statute or statutes, any
other applicable statute or regulation, or the rules of any applicable
securities exchange or securities association, as then in effect. In addition,
at the time of any exercise of the Option or any part thereof, the Company
may, as a condition precedent to the exercise of such Option require from you
(or, in the event of your death or disability, your legal representatives,
heirs, legatees, or distributees) such written representations, if any,
concerning your intentions with regard to the retention or disposition of the
shares of Stock being acquired pursuant to the Option and such written
covenants and agreements, if any, as to the manner of disposal of such shares
as, in the opinion of Counsel to the Company, may be necessary to ensure that
any disposition will not involve a violation of the Securities Act or any
similar or superseding statute or statutes, any other applicable federal or
state statute or regulation, or any rule of any applicable securities exchange
or securities association, as then in effect.

         16. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. You shall have no right as a stockholder
with respect to any shares covered by the Option unless and until a
certificate representing those shares is issued in your name. No adjustment
shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash or
other property) or distributions or other rights for which the record date is
before the date that certificate is issued, except as contemplated by
Paragraph 7.

         17. FURNISH INFORMATION. You shall furnish to the Company all
information requested by the Company to enable it to comply with any reporting
or other requirement imposed upon the Company by or under any applicable
statute or regulation.

         18. OBLIGATION TO EXERCISE. The granting of the Option through this
Agreement shall impose no obligation upon you to exercise the same or any part
thereof.

         19. REMEDIES. The Company shall be entitled to recover from you
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the enforcement of the
terms and provisions of this Agreement whether by an action to enforce
specific performance or for damages for its breach or otherwise.

         20. INFORMATION CONFIDENTIAL. As partial consideration for the
granting of the Option, you hereby agree with the Company that you will keep
confidential all information and knowledge that you have relating to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such information may
be disclosed as required by law and may be given in confidence to your spouse,
tax and financial advisors, or to a financial institution to the extent that
such information is necessary to secure a loan. In the event any breach of
this promise comes to the attention of the Company, it shall take into
consideration that breach in determining whether to recommend the grant of any
future similar award to you, as a factor militating against the advisability
of granting any such future award to you.

         21. CONSIDERATION. The Option shall not be exercisable unless and
until you have performed services for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
that the Company believes is equal to or greater in value than the par value
of the Stock subject to the Option.

         22. PAYMENT OF TAXES. The Company may from time to time, in its
discretion, require you to pay to the Company (or the Company's Subsidiary if
you are an employee of a Subsidiary of the Company), at the time of exercise
of the Option, the amount that the Company deems necessary to satisfy the
Company's or its Subsidiary's current or future obligation to withhold
federal, state or local income or other taxes that you incur as a result of
the Option. With respect to any such required tax withholding, you may (a)
direct the Company to withhold from the shares of Stock to be issued to you
the number of shares necessary to satisfy the Company's obligation to withhold
taxes, that determination to be based on the shares' Fair Market Value at the
time as of which such determination is made; (b) deliver to the Company
sufficient shares of Stock to satisfy the Company's tax withholding
obligations, based on the shares' Fair Market Value at the time as of which
such determination is made; or (c) deliver sufficient cash to the Company to
satisfy its tax withholding obligations. If you elect to use such a stock
withholding feature, you must make the election at the time and in the manner
that the Company prescribes. The Company may, at its sole option, deny your
request to satisfy withholding obligations through Stock instead of cash. In
the event the Company subsequently determines that the aggregate Fair Market
Value (as determined above) of any shares of Stock withheld as payment of any
tax withholding obligation is insufficient to discharge that tax withholding
obligation, then you shall pay to the Company, immediately upon the Company's
request, the amount of that deficiency.

         23. RIGHT OF THE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES TO TERMINATE EMPLOYMENT.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall confer upon you the right to
continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary, or interfere in any
way with the rights of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate your
employment at any time.

         24. NO LIABILITY FOR GOOD FAITH DETERMINATIONS. The Company and the
members of the Board of Directors shall not be liable for any act, omission or
determination taken or made in good faith with respect to this Agreement or
the Option granted hereunder.

         25. EXCLUSION FROM PENSION AND PROFIT-SHARING COMPENSATION. You
hereby agree that the Option is special incentive compensation that will not
be taken into account in any manner as salary, compensation or bonus in
determining the amount of any payment under any pension, retirement or other
employee benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary. In addition, you
hereby agree that in the event of your death, each of your beneficiaries shall
be deemed to have agreed that the Option will not affect the amount of any
life insurance coverage, if any, provided by the Company or a Subsidiary on
your life that is payable to the beneficiary under any life insurance plan
covering employees of the Company or any Subsidiary.

         26. EXECUTION OF RECEIPTS AND RELEASES. Any payment of cash or any
issuance or transfer of shares of Stock or other property to you, or to your
legal representative, heir, legatee or distributee, in accordance with the
provisions hereof, shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of
all claims of such persons hereunder. The Company may require you or your
legal representative, heir, legatee or distributee, as a condition precedent

form as it shall determine.

regarding your period of employment, termination of employment and the reason

incorrect.

         29. COMPANY ACTION. Any action required of the Company shall be by
resolution of its Board of Directors or by a person authorized to act by

         30. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not
affect the remaining provisions hereof, but such provision shall be fully
severable and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal
or invalid provision had never been included herein.

theretofore specified by written notice delivered in accordance herewith.

         The Company and you agree that any notices shall be given to the

other, the address which it or he had previously specified for receiving

WHEREAS:

    A.  By a lease commencing the 1st day of February, 1997 (the "Lease")

        (the "Term") subject to the Tenant's Covenants therein contained.

        Subtenant from June 1, 2000 to January 30, 2002.

                                      -2-

NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSES that in consideration of the premises and
the sum of $1.00 and other valuable consideration now paid by the Subtenant to
the Tenant (the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged), the Tenant hereby
subleases to the Subtenant all of the Tenant's interest in the Leased Premises
from June 1, 2000 to January 30, 2002. During this period, the Tenant shall
continue to pay rent for the Leased Premises to the Landlord as it falls due.

The Tenant covenants with the Subtenant that notwithstanding any act of the
Tenant, the Lease is a good, valid and subsisting Lease, and that the rents (and
additional rent as determined in the Lease) hereby reserved have been and will
be duly paid up until the commencement of the Sublease and that the Tenant now
has good right to sublet the Leased Premises in the manner aforesaid.

Subject to the payment to the Tenant of rent and the performance by the
Subtenant of the Tenant's Covenants in the Lease, the Tenant covenants with the
Subtenant that the Subtenant may peaceably and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy
the Leased Premises hereby sublet until the expiration of the Sublease without
any interruption by the Tenant or any person claiming under it.

The Subtenant covenants with the Tenant and the Subtenant will observe and
perform the Tenant's Covenants and conditions in the Lease, reserved and
contained, and indemnify and save harmless the Tenant from all losses and
expenses in respect of the non-observance or non-performance of the said
covenants and conditions or any of them.

Notwithstanding any other remedies that are available to the Landlord under the
Lease, as amended from time to time, or hereunder, the Tenant assigns to the
Landlord, as security for its obligations under the Lease, the rents and all
benefits and advantages to be derived from the sublease provided that until a
default occurs under the Lease the Tenant may collect the rents and all benefits
and advantages to be derived from the sublease as the same fall due and payable
and, except for the last month's rent, not in advance. In the case of default
under the Lease the Landlord may give notice to the Subtenant requiring it to
make payments directly to the Landlord and the Landlord shall apply all monies
received to the obligations of the Tenant under the Lease.

THIS AGREEMENT FURTHER WITNESSES that the Landlord consents to the within
sublease to the Subtenant pursuant to the terms of the Lease.

This Consent shall in no manner release the Tenant from any covenant under the
Lease to be observed or performed by the Tenant, AND FURTHER PROVIDED THAT the
Landlord reserves its right to consent to further assignments, subletting or
licenses granted in respect of the Leased Premises or the Lease.

In further consideration of the Landlord consenting to sublease, the Subtenant
covenants with the Landlord to perform and observe all covenants, agreements and
conditions in the Lease to be performed and observed by the Tenant, including
the covenant to pay rent.
