<PAGE>

have occurred if another corporation shall own, directly or indirectly, more
than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate voting power of all outstanding equity
securities of the Company); or (c) a sale of all or substantially all of the
Company's assets.

         3.       Administration.

                  (a)      The Plan shall be administered by the Board of
Directors or by a Committee appointed by the Board and consisting of not less
than two Board members. (For purposes of this Plan document, the term "Board"
shall mean the Committee to the extent that the Board's powers have been
delegated to the Committee.)

                  (b)      The Board shall have sole authority in its absolute
discretion (i) to determine which Employees, Directors and Consultants shall
receive Options, (ii) subject to the express provisions of the Plan, to
determine the time when Options shall be granted, the number of Shares subject
to the Options, the exercise prices, and the terms and conditions of Options
other than those terms and conditions fixed under the Plan, and (iii) to
interpret the provisions of the Plan and any Option granted under the Plan. The
Board shall adopt by resolution such rules and regulations as may be required to
carry out the purposes of the Plan and shall have authority to do everything
necessary or appropriate to administer the Plan. All decisions, determinations
and interpretations of the Board shall be final and binding on all Optionees.
The Board may from time to time remove members from, or add members to, the
Committee, and vacancies on the Committee shall be filled by the Board.
Furthermore, the Board at any time by resolution may abolish the Committee and
revest in the Board the administration of the Plan.

                  (c)      With respect to Options granted to a member of the
Board, the Board shall take action by a vote sufficient without counting the
vote of such member of the Board, although such member of the Board may be
counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board which
authorizes the granting of Options to such member of the Board.

         4.       Eligibility.

                  (a)      Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to
Employees who render services which contribute to the success of the Company.
Nonstatutory Stock Options may be granted only to Employees, Directors or
Consultants who render services which contribute to the success of the Company.

                  (b)      The Plan shall not confer upon any Optionee any right
to continue as an Employee, Director or Consultant of the Company, nor shall it
interfere in any way with his right or the Company's right to terminate his
employment or relationship as a Director or Consultant at any time, with or
without cause.

                  (c)      The determination as to whether an Employee, Director
or Consultant is eligible to receive Options hereunder shall be made by the
Board in its sole discretion, and the decision of the Board shall be binding and
final.

                                       3

         5.       Number of Shares. The maximum aggregate number of Shares which
may be optioned and sold under this Plan is two hundred fifty thousand (250,000)
Shares of authorized but unissued Common Stock of the Company. In the event that
Options granted under the Plan shall terminate or expire without being
exercised, in whole or in part, the Shares subject to such unexercised Options
may again be optioned and sold under this Plan.

         6.       Term of the Plan. The Plan shall be effective as of May 9,
1996, and shall continue in effect until the tenth anniversary of such date,
unless terminated earlier.

         7.       Exercise Price and Consideration.

                  (a)      The per Share exercise price for the Shares to be
issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by
the Board in its sole discretion, but, in the case of Incentive Stock Options
only, shall be subject to the following:

                           (i)      for an Incentive Stock Option granted to a
Restricted Shareholder, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110%
of the fair market value per Share on the date of grant; and

                           (ii)     for an Incentive Stock Option granted to any
Employee (other than a Restricted Shareholder), the per Share exercise price
shall be no less than 100% of the fair market value per Share on the date of
grant.

                  (b)      The fair market value shall be determined by the
Board in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith.

                  (c)      The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be
issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be
determined by the Board and may consist entirely of cash or cash equivalents or,
with the consent of the Board, promissory note, other shares of Common Stock
having a fair market value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate
exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised, any
combination of such methods of payment, or such other legal consideration that
may be acceptable to the Board.

         8.       Exercise of Options.

                  (a)      Vesting of Options. Any Option granted hereunder
shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by
the Board, including performance criteria with respect to the Company and/or the
Optionee, and as shall be permissible under the terms of the Plan.

                  (b)      Procedure for Exercise. An Option may be exercised at
any time as to all or any portions of the Shares as to which it is then
exercisable, except that an Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a
Share and shall be subject to any provision in the option agreement

                                       4

<PAGE>

governing the minimum number of Shares as to which the Option may be exercised.
An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such exercise
has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Option by the
person entitled to exercise the Option and full payment for the Shares with
respect to which the Option is exercised has been received by the Company. Full
payment may, as authorized by the Board, consist of any consideration and method
of payment allowable under Section 7(c) of the Plan.

                  (c)      Termination of Options. All installments of an Option
shall expire and terminate on such date(s) as the Board shall determine, but in
no event later than ten (10) years from the date such Option was granted (except
that an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Restricted Shareholder shall by its
terms not be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date
such Option was granted).

                  (d)      Death or Termination of Service of Optionee. The
following provisions shall govern the exercise period applicable to any Options
held by an Optionee at the time of his or her death or termination of service
with the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company:

                           (i)      Termination of Continuous Status as an
Employee, Director or Consultant. In the event of termination of an Optionee's
Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant (as the case may be)
for any reason other than the Optionee's death or Disability, such Optionee may
only exercise the Option within three (3) months (or such shorter period as
specified in the written option agreement) after the date of such termination.

                           (ii)     Disability of Optionee. In the event of
termination of an Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or
Consultant as a result of the Optionee's Disability, the Optionee may only
exercise the Option within twelve (12) months (or such shorter period as is
specified in the written option agreement) from the date of such termination.

                           (iii)    Death of Optionee. In the event of
termination of an Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or
Consultant as a result of the Optionee's death, the Option may only be exercised
any time within twelve (12) months (or such shorter period as is specified in
the written option agreement) following the date of death by the Optionee's
estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest
or inheritance.

                           (iv)     Limitations. Each Option shall, during the
limited exercise period under this Section 8(d), be exercisable only as to the
shares for which the Option is exercisable on the date of the Optionee's death
or termination of service with the Company. Under no circumstances shall any
Option become exercisable under this Section 8(d) after the Option Termination
Date. Upon the earlier of the expiration of such limited exercise period or the
Option Termination Date, the Option shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.

                           (v)      Immediate Termination. Should (A) the
Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant be
terminated for misconduct (including, but not limited to, any act of dishonesty,
willful misconduct, fraud or embezzlement) or (B) the Optionee

                                       5

<PAGE>

make any unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information or trade
secrets of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, then in any such event all
outstanding Options granted to the Optionee under this Plan shall terminate
immediately and cease to be exercisable.

                           (vi)     Board Discretion to Accelerate. The Board
shall have complete discretion, exercisable either at the time the Option is
granted or at any time the Option remains outstanding, to permit one or more
Options granted under this Plan to be exercised during the limited exercise
period applicable under this Section 8(d), not only for the number of Shares for
which each such Option is exercisable at the time of the Optionee's death or
termination of service but also for one or more subsequent installments of
Shares for which the Option would otherwise have become exercisable had such
death or termination of service not occurred.

                  (e)      Extensions. Notwithstanding the provisions covering
the exercisability of Options following death or termination of service, as
described in Section 8(d), the Board may, in its sole discretion, with the
consent of the Optionee or the Optionee's estate (in the case of the death of
Optionee), extend the period of time during which the Option shall remain
exercisable, provided that in no event shall such extension go beyond the Option
Termination Date. In the case of Incentive Stock Options, extensions under this
Section 8(e) may result in loss of the favorable treatment accorded to incentive
stock options under the Code.

         9.       Restrictions on Grants of Options and Issuance of Shares.

                  (a)      Regulatory Approvals. No Shares shall be issued or
delivered upon exercise of an Option unless and until there shall have been
compliance with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, (the "1933 Act"), and any other requirement of law or of any regulatory
body having jurisdiction over such issuance and delivery. The inability of the
Company to obtain any required permits, authorizations, or approvals necessary
for the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder on terms deemed
reasonable by the Board shall relieve the Company, the Board, and any Committee
of any liability in respect of the non-issuance or sale of such Shares as to
which such requisite permits, authorizations, or approvals shall not have been
obtained.

                  (b)      Representations and Warranties. As a condition to the
granting or exercise of any Option, the Board may require the person receiving
or exercising such Option to make any representation and/or warranty to the
Company as may be required (or deemed appropriate by the Board, in its
discretion) under any applicable law or regulation, including but not limited to
a representation that the Option and/or Shares are being acquired only for
investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Option
and/or Shares, if such a representation is required under the 1933 Act or any
other applicable law, rule, or regulation.

                  (c)      Shareholder Approval. The exercise of Options under
the Plan also is conditioned on approval of the Plan by the vote or written
consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's
Common Stock, and no Option shall be exercisable hereunder unless and until the
Plan has been so approved.

                                       6

<PAGE>

         10.      Option Adjustments.

                  (a)      Change in Capitalization. If the outstanding shares
of Common Stock of the Company are increased, decreased, changed into or
exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of the Company through
reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split
or reverse stock split, upon authorization by the Board an appropriate and
proportionate adjustment shall be made in the number or kind of shares, and the
per-share option price thereof, which may be issued in the aggregate and to any
individual Optionees under the Plan upon exercise of Options granted under the
Plan; provided, however, that no such adjustment need be made if, upon the
advice of counsel, the Board determines that such adjustment may result in the
receipt of federally taxable income to holders of Options granted under the Plan
or the holders of Common Stock or other classes of the Company's securities.

                  (b)      Corporate Reorganizations. Upon the occurrence of a
Terminating Transaction, as of the effective date of such Terminating
Transaction, the Plan and any then outstanding Options (whether or not vested)
shall terminate unless (i) provision be made in writing in connection with such
transaction for the continuance of the Plan and for the assumption of such
Options, or for the substitution for such Options of new options covering the
securities of a successor corporation or an affiliate thereof, with appropriate
adjustments as to the number and kind of securities and exercise prices, in
which event the Plan and such outstanding Options shall continue or be replaced,
as the case may be, in the manner and under the terms so provided; or (ii) the
Board otherwise shall provide in writing for such adjustments as it deems
appropriate in the terms and conditions of the then-outstanding Options (whether
or not vested), including without limitation (A) accelerating the vesting of
outstanding Options, and/or (B) providing for the cancellation of Options and
their automatic conversion into the right to receive the securities or other
properties which a holder of the Shares underlying such Options would have been
entitled to receive upon such Terminating Transaction had such Shares been
issued and outstanding (net of the appropriate option exercise prices). If,
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (b), the Plan and the
Options shall terminate by reason of the occurrence of a Terminating Transaction
without provision for any of the action(s) described in clause (i) or (ii)
hereof, then any Optionee holding outstanding Options shall have the right, at
such time immediately prior to the consummation of the Terminating Transaction
as the Board shall designate, to exercise his or her Options to the full extent
not theretofore exercised, including any portion which has not yet become
exercisable.

         11.      Option Agreement. The terms and conditions of Options granted
under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written option agreement executed by the
Company and the person to whom the Option is granted. Each option agreement
shall incorporate the Plan by reference and shall include such provisions as are
determined to be necessary or appropriate by the Board.

         12.      Restricted Stock. As a condition to the granting of any Option
hereunder and the subsequent exercise of any such Option, the Board may include
in the option agreement for that

                                       7

<PAGE>

Option provisions limiting the sale or other transfer of ownership of Shares
acquired by the Optionee under that Option.

         13.      Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. In the event that the
aggregate fair market value of Shares (determined as of the date of grant of the
Option covering such Shares) with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are
exercisable for the first time by an Employee during any calendar year under
this Plan and any other plan of the Company exceeds $100,000, Options with
respect to and to the extent of such excess shall be treated as Nonstatutory
Stock Options. This Section 13 shall be applied by taking Options which are
intended to be Incentive Stock Options into account in the order in which they
were granted.

         14.      Amendment or Termination of the Plans.

                  (a)      Board Authority. The Board may amend, suspend, alter,
or terminate the Plan at any time. To the extent necessary or desirable to
comply with Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, the Code or any other applicable law
or regulation, the Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any amendment to
the Plan only in such a manner and to such a degree as required under applicable
law.

                  (b)      Limitation on Board Authority. Furthermore, the Plan
may not, without the approval of the shareholders, be amended in any manner that
would cause Incentive Stock Options issued hereunder to fail to qualify as
Incentive Stock Options as defined in Section 422(b) of the Code.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, suspension or termination of the
Plan shall adversely affect Options granted on or prior to the date thereof, as
evidenced by the execution of an option agreement by both the Company and the
Optionee, without the consent of such Optionee.

                  (c)      Contingent Grants Based on Amendments. Options may be
granted in reliance on and consistent with any amendment adopted by the Board
and which is necessary to enable such Options to be granted under the Plan, even
though such amendment requires future shareholder approval; provided, however,
that any such contingent Option by its terms may not be exercised prior to
shareholder approval of such amendment, and provided further, that in the event
shareholder approval is not obtained within twelve months of the date of grant
of such contingent Option, then such contingent Option shall be deemed cancelled
and no longer outstanding.

         15.      Options Not Transferable. Options granted under this Plan may
not be sold, pledged, hypothecated, assigned, encumbered, gifted or otherwise
transferred or alienated in any manner, either voluntarily or involuntarily by
operation of law, other than by will or the laws of descent or distribution, and
may be exercised during the lifetime of an Optionee only by such Optionee.

         16.      No Rights in Shares Before Issuance and Delivery. Neither the
Optionee, his or her estate nor his or her transferees by will or the laws of
descent and distribution shall be, or have any rights or privileges of, a
shareholder of the Company with respect to any Shares issuable upon exercise of
the Option unless and until certificates representing such Shares shall have
been issued

                                       8

<PAGE>

and delivered notwithstanding exercise of the Option. No adjustment will be made
for a dividend or other rights where the record date is prior to the date such
stock certificates are issued, except as provided in Section 10.

         17.      Taxes. The Board shall make such provisions and take such
steps as it deems necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any federal,
state, local and other tax required by law to be withheld with respect to the
grant or exercise of an Option under the Plan, including, without limitation,
the deduction of the amount of any such withholding tax from any compensation or
other amounts payable to an Optionee by the Company, or requiring an Optionee
(or the Optionee's beneficiary or legal representative) as a condition of
granting or exercising an Option to pay to the Company any amount required to be
withheld, or to execute such other documents as the Board deems necessary or
desirable in connection with the satisfaction of any applicable withholding
obligation. In the discretion of the Board, upon exercise of a Nonstatutory
Stock Option, the Optionee may request the Company to withhold from the Shares
to be issued upon such exercise that number of Shares (based on the fair market
value of the Shares as of the day immediately preceding the day notice of
exercise is received by the Company) that would satisfy any tax withholding
requirement.

         18.      Legends on Options and Stock Certificates. Each option
agreement and each certificate representing Shares acquired upon exercise of an
Option shall be endorsed with all legends, if any, required by applicable
federal and state securities laws to be placed on the option agreement and/or
the certificate. The determination of which legends, if any, shall be placed
upon option agreements and/or the certificates representing Shares shall be made
by the Board in its sole discretion and such decision shall be final and
binding.

         19.      Availability of Plan. A copy of this Plan shall be delivered
to the Secretary of the Company and shall be shown by the Secretary to any
eligible person making reasonable inquiry concerning the Plan.

         20.      Applicable Law. This Plan shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

Date Plan approved by Board:  May 9, 1996

Date Plan approved by Shareholders:  November 13, 1996

                          CENTERGISTIC SOLUTIONS, INC.

         The 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Plan") of Centergistic Solutions,

               1. The first sentence of Section 5 is hereby amended to read as

                               STOCK OPTION PLAN

         AAC Corporation, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of
California (the "Company"), hereby adopts this AAC Corporation 1998 Nonemployee
Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). The purpose of this Plan is to
advance the interests of the Company by enhancing its ability to retain
qualified persons who are neither employees nor officers of the Company to serve
as members of the Company's Board of Directors. This Plan provides such persons
with the opportunity to become owners of capital stock of the Company by the
grant of Options to purchase Shares. Options granted hereunder shall be
"nonstatutory options," and shall not include "incentive stock options" intended
to qualify for treatment under Sections 421 and 422A of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended.

         Section 1. Definitions. As used herein, the following definitions shall
apply:

                 (a)      "Administrator" shall mean the entity, whether the
Board or the Committee, responsible for administering this Plan, as provided in
Section 2.

                 (b)      "Board" shall mean the Board of Directors of the
Company.

question: (i) the closing price of a Share on the principal exchange on which
Shares of the Company's stock are then trading, if any, on the day previous to
such date, or, if shares were not traded on the day previous to such date, then
on the next preceding trading day during which a sale occurred; or (ii) if such
stock is not traded on an exchange but is quoted on NASDAQ or a successor
quotation system, (1) the last sales price (if the stock is then listed as a
National Market Issue under the NASD National Market System) or (2) the mean

successor quotation system; or (iii) if such stock is not publicly

previous to such date, as determined in good faith by the Committee; or (iv)

constitute employment for purposes of this definition.

                 (j)      "Option" shall mean a stock option granted pursuant
to this Plan. Each Option shall be a nonstatutory option not intended to qualify
as an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422A of the Code.

exercise or termination of Options pursuant to the terms of this Plan, and (iii)
the interpretation of the provisions of this Plan and any Option granted under
this Plan. The Board shall adopt by resolution such rules and regulations as may

                 (b)      The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to
a Committee of no less than two directors appointed by the Board. The Board may
from time to time remove members from, or add members to, the Committee, and
vacancies on the Committee shall be filled by the Board. Furthermore, the Board
at any time by resolution may abolish the Committee and revest in the Board the
administration of this Plan. (For purposes of this Plan document, the term
"Administrator" shall mean the Board or, to the extent that the Board's powers
have been delegated to the Committee, the Committee.)

                 (c)      All decisions, interpretations and other actions of
the Administrator shall be final and binding on all persons. No member of the
Committee or Board shall be liable for any action that he or she has taken or
failed to take in good faith with respect to this Plan or any Option.

         Section 3. Eligibility and Consideration. Only Nonemployee Directors
may receive Options under this Plan. In consideration of the granting of the

adjustments upon changes in Shares), the Shares which may be issued upon
exercise of Options shall not exceed in the aggregate 100,000 Shares. Shares
issued under this Plan may be unissued Shares or reacquired Shares. The Company,
during the term of the Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep available
sufficient Shares to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

                 (b)      No Rights as a Stockholder. An Optionee shall have
no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by his or her
Option until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of
the Company or its duly authorized transfer agent) of a stock certificate
evidencing such Shares. Subject to Section 7, no adjustment shall be made for
dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or other
property), distributions, or other rights for which the record date is prior to
the date the certificate is issued.

         Section 5. Grant of Options.

time to time, by written notice from the Optionee to the Company stating the

for the Shares, and other applicable amounts, as provided in Section 6.

                  (g)      Expiration of Options. No Option may be exercised to
any extent by anyone after the first to occur of the following events:

                           (i)      The expiration of ten years from the date
                           the Option was granted;

                           (ii)     Except in the case of any Optionee who is
                           disabled (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of
                           the Code), the expiration of three months from the

                           death unless the Optionee dies within said one-year
                           period; or

                           (iv)     The expiration of one year from the date of

under this Plan shall be paid in full at the time an Option is exercised.

                 (b)      Form of Consideration. Optionees may make all or any
portion of any payment due to the Company upon exercise of an Option by delivery
of cash or any Shares or other securities of the Company, so long as such Shares
or other securities constitute valid consideration for the stock under
applicable law and are surrendered in good form for transfer; provided, however,
that Options may not be exercised by the delivery of Shares or other securities
of the Company if they have not been held for the requisite period necessary to
avoid a charge to the Company's earnings for financial reporting purposes.
Shares or other securities delivered upon exercise shall be valued at their Fair
Market Value on the delivery date.

                 (c)      Taxes. Irrespective of the form of payment made for
exercise of an Option, exercise shall be conditioned upon payment in cash to the
Company by the Optionee of all local, state and federal withholding taxes
applicable, in the Administrator's judgment, to the exercise of the Option.

         Section 7. Adjustment of Shares.

                 (a)      Changes in Capital Structure. Subject to Section
7(b), if the outstanding Shares are changed into or exchanged for a different
number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company or of another
corporation, by reason of a reorganization, merger, consolidation,
recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, combination of securities or
stock dividend, the total number and/or kind of securities for the purchase of
which Options may be granted under this Plan, and the number and/or kind of
securities as to which Options (or portions thereof) are outstanding, shall be
adjusted proportionately by the Administrator. Any adjustment in an outstanding
Option shall be made without change in the total exercise price applicable to
the unexercised portion of such Option and with a corresponding adjustment in
the exercise price per Share. Any adjustment under this Section 7(a) shall be
subject to the provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as
amended, and applicable law. Any such adjustment shall be final and binding
upon all Optionees, the Company and all other interested persons.

                 (b)      Reorganization and Other Transactions. In its
absolute discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate,
the Administrator may provide by the terms of any Option that such Option cannot
be exercised after the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into
another corporation, the acquisition by another corporation or person of all or
substantially all of the Company's assets or 80% or more of the Company's then
outstanding voting stock or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company; and
if the Administrator so provides, it may, in its absolute discretion and on such
terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, also provide, either by the terms
of such Option or by a resolution adopted prior to the occurrence of such
merger, consolidation, acquisition, liquidation or dissolution, that, for some
period of time prior to such event, such Option shall be exercisable as to all
shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.

         Section 8. No Right to Directorship. Neither, this Plan nor any Option
granted hereunder shall confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to
continuation of the Optionee's membership on the Board or shall interfere in any
way with provisions in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
relating to the election, appointment, terms of office, and removal of members
of the Board.

         Section 9. Legal Requirements. The Company shall not be obligated to
offer or sell any Shares upon exercise of any Option unless the Shares are at
that time effectively registered or exempt from registration under the federal
securities laws and the offer and sale of the Shares are otherwise in compliance
with all applicable securities laws and the regulations of any stock exchange on
which the Company's securities may then be listed. The Company shall have no
obligation to register the securities covered by this Plan under the federal
securities laws or take any other steps as may be necessary to enable the
securities covered by this Plan to be offered and sold under federal or other
securities laws. Upon exercising all or any portion of an Option, an Optionee
may be required to furnish representations or undertakings deemed appropriate by
the Company to enable the offer and sale of the Shares or subsequent transfers
of any interest in the Shares to comply with applicable securities laws.
Certificates evidencing Shares acquired upon exercise of Options shall bear any
legend required by, or useful for purposes of compliance with, applicable
securities laws, this Plan or the Option Agreements.

         Section 10. Duration and Amendments.

                 (a)      Duration. This Plan shall become effective on
January 7, 1998. This Plan and any Options granted hereunder shall be null and
void if such approval is not obtained. This Plan shall terminate automatically

Section 10(b).

                 (b)      Amendment; Termination. The Plan may be wholly or
partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or
from time to time by the Board or the Committee, Neither the amendment,
suspension nor termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the holder
of the Option, alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Option
theretofore granted.

                 (c)      Effect of Amendment or Termination. No Shares shall
be issued or sold under this Plan after the termination hereof, except upon
exercise of an Option granted before termination. Termination or amendment of
this Plan shall not affect any Shares previously issued and sold or any Option
previously granted under this Plan.

                           (c)      A bona fide written representation and
         agreement, in a form satisfactory to the Administrator, signed by the
         Director or other person then entitled to exercise such Option or
         portion thereof, stating that the Shares of stock are being

                                       3

         acquired for his or her own account, for investment and without any
         present intention of distributing or reselling said Shares or any of
         them except as may be permitted under the Securities Act of 1933, as
         amended (the "Securities Act"), and then applicable rules and
         regulations thereunder, and that the Director or other person then
         entitled to exercise such Option or portion thereof will indemnify the
         Company against and hold it free and harmless from any loss, damage,
         expense or liability resulting to the Company if any sale or
         distribution of the Shares by such person is contrary to the
         representation and agreement referred to above. The Administrator may,
         in its absolute discretion, take whatever additional actions it deems
         appropriate to insure the observance and performance of such
         representation and agreement and to effect compliance with the
         Securities Act and any other federal or state securities laws or
         regulations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
         Administrator may require an opinion of counsel acceptable to it to the
         effect that any subsequent transfer of Shares acquired on an Option
         exercise does not violate the Securities Act, and may issue
         stop-transfer orders covering such shares. Share certificates
         evidencing stock issued on exercise of this Option shall bear an
         appropriate legend referring to the provisions of this subsection (c)
         and the agreements herein. The written representation and agreement
         referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (c) shall,
         however, not be required if the Shares to be issued pursuant to such
         exercise have been registered under the Securities Act, and such
         registration is then effective in respect of such Shares; and

                           (d)      Full payment to the Company of all amounts
         which it is required to withhold under federal, state or local law upon
         exercise of the Option; and

                           (e)      In the event the Option or portion shall be
         exercised pursuant to Section 4.1 by any person or persons other than
         the Director, appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons
         to exercise the Option or portion thereof.

Section 4.4 - Conditions to Issuance of Stock Certificates

                  The Shares deliverable upon the exercise of the Option, or
any portion thereof, may be either previously authorized but unissued shares or
issued shares which have then been reacquired by the Company. Such Shares shall
be fully paid and nonassessable. The Company shall not be required to issue or
deliver any certificate or certificates for Shares purchased upon the exercise
of the Option or portion thereof prior to fulfillment of all of the following
conditions:

                           (a)      The admission of such Shares to listing on
         all stock exchanges, if any, on which such class of stock is then
         listed;

                           (b)      The completion of any registration or other
         qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or under
         the rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or
         any other governmental regulatory body, which the Administrator shall,
         in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable;

                                       4

<PAGE>

                           (c)      The obtaining of any approval or other
         clearance from any state or federal governmental agency which the
         Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be
         necessary or advisable;

                           (d)      The payment to the Company of all amounts
         which it is required to withhold under federal, state or local law upon
         exercise of the Option; and

                           (e)      The lapse of such reasonable period of time
         following the exercise of the Option as the Administrator may from time
         to time establish for reasons of administrative convenience.

Section 4.5 - Rights as Shareholder

                  The holder of the Option shall not be, nor shall such holder
have any of the rights of privileges of, a stockholder of the Company in respect
of any Shares purchasable upon the exercise of any part of the Option unless and
until a certificate or certificates representing such Shares shall have been
issued by the Company to such holder.

                                    ARTICLE V

                  The Administrator shall have the power to interpret the Plan
and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration,
interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to
interpret, amend or revoke any such rules. All actions taken and all
interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith shall
be final and binding upon the Director, the Company and all other interested
persons.

Section 5.2 - Option Not Transferable

                  Neither the Option nor any interest or right therein or part
thereof shall be subject to or liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of
the Director or his successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by
transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other
means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of
law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable
proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall
be null and void and of no effect; provided, however, that this Section 5.2
shall not prevent transfers by will or by the applicable laws of descent and
distribution.

the Director is then deceased, be given to the Director's personal
representative if such representative has previously informed the Company of his
status and address by written notice under this Section 5.4. Any notice shall be
deemed duly given when enclosed in a properly sealed envelope or wrapper
