                ADVANCED INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS, INC.

                                STOCK OPTION PLAN

         1. PURPOSES. Advanced Information Management Solutions, Inc. (the
"Company") has adopted this Plan to enhance the interest and concern of the
Company's employees, officers, directors and consultants in the success of the
Company by giving them an ownership interest in the Company, and to give them an
incentive to continue their service to the Company.

         2. STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN. The Company shall reserve 1,000,000 shares of
its no par value Common Stock (the "Shares") to be issued upon exercise of
options which may be granted from time to time under this Plan. As it may from
time to time determine, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") may
authorize that the Shares may be comprised, in whole or in part, of authorized
but unissued shares of the Company's Common Stock or of issued shares which have
been reacquired. If options granted under this Plan terminate or expire before
being exercised in whole or in part, the Shares subject to those options which
have not been issued may be subjected to options subsequently granted under the
Plan.

         3. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN. The Board shall appoint a Stock Option
Committee (the "Committee") which shall consist of not fewer than two (2)
members of the Board, or, at the election of the Board or if the Board consists
of fewer than two directors, may consist of the entire Board, to administer this
Plan. Subject to the express provisions of this Plan and guidelines which may be
adopted from time to time by the Board, the Committee shall have plenary
authority in its discretion (a) to determine the individuals to whom, and the
times at which, options are granted, and the number and purchase price of the
Shares subject to each option; (b) to determine whether the options granted
shall be "incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), or non-statutory stock options, or
both; (c) to interpret the Plan and prescribe, amend and rescind rules and
regulations relating to it; (d) to determine the terms and provisions (and
amendments thereof) of the respective option agreements subject to Section 6 of
the Plan, which need not be identical, including, if the Committee shall
determine that a particular option is to be an incentive stock option, such
terms and provisions (and amendments thereof) as the Committee deems necessary
to provide for an incentive stock option or to conform to any change in any law,
regulation, ruling or interpretation applicable to incentive stock options; and
(e) to make any and all determinations which the Committee deems necessary or
advisable in administering the Plan. The Committee's determination on the
foregoing matters shall be conclusive. The Committee may delegate any of the
foregoing authority to the President with respect to options granted to or which
are held by non-officers and non-directors.

         4. PERSONS ELIGIBLE. Employees of the Company or its subsidiaries
(including officers) may be granted either incentive or non-statutory options.
Consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries (including directors) may be
granted only non-statutory options, except directors who are also employees, who
may be granted either incentive or non-statutory options. For this purpose,
"employee" shall conform to the requirements of Section 422A of the Code, and
"subsidiary" means subsidiary corporations as defined in Section 424 of the
Code.

                                                                     Page 1 of 6
<PAGE>

                  The aggregate fair market value (determined as of the time the
option is granted) of the Shares with respect to which incentive stock options
are exercisable for the first time by an optionee during any calendar year
(under all incentive stock option plans of the Company or its parent or
subsidiaries) shall not exceed $100,000.

         5.       CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.

                  (a) EFFECT ON THE PLAN. In the event of changes in the
outstanding capital stock of the Company by reason of any stock dividend, stock
split or reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization, merger or
consolidation, acquisition of 80 percent or more of its gross assets or stock,
reorganization or liquidation, the Committee and/or the Board shall make such
adjustments in the aggregate number and class of shares available under the Plan
as it deems appropriate, and such determination shall be final, binding and
conclusive.

                  (b)      EFFECT ON OUTSTANDING OPTIONS.

                           (i)      STOCK SPLITS AND LIKE EVENTS.  Should a
stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or reclassification occur,
then the Committee and/or the Board shall make such adjustments in (A) the
number and class of shares to which optionees will thereafter be entitled upon
exercise of their outstanding options and (B) the price which optionees shall be
required to pay upon such exercise, as it in its sole discretion in good faith
deems appropriate, and such determination shall be final, binding and
conclusive. Such adjustments shall have the effect that the aggregate exercise
price paid by, and number and class of shares received by, an optionee who
exercises an option subsequent to such occurrence shall be the same as if such
optionee had exercised the option immediately prior to such occurrence.

                           (ii)     RECAPITALIZATIONS.  In the event of (A) a
dissolution, liquidation, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company, or (B) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the
surviving entity, or (C) a merger in which the Company is the surviving entity
but the shares of the Company's common stock outstanding immediately preceding
the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other securities, cash, or
other property, then, at the sole discretion of the Board and to the extent
permitted by applicable law, options granted under this Plan:

         (1) shall terminate upon such event and may be exercised prior thereto
         only to the extent such options are then exercisable; or

         (2) shall terminate upon such event, or such date prior to the
         consummation of the event as the Board may determine, but shall become
         fully exercisable as to all shares upon the consummation of such event
         or on such date determined by the Board; or

         (3) shall continue in full force and effect and, if applicable, the
         surviving entity shall assume such options and/or shall substitute
         similar options for such options; or

         (4) shall be treated as provided in the applicable agreement or plan of
         merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation, sale of assets or
         other similar agreement.

                                                                     Page 2 of 6
<PAGE>

Notwithstanding the above, upon the occurrence of any such event, each optionee
shall have such greater rights as may be provided in such optionee's stock
option agreement, which at the discretion of the Board and/or Committee, may
include any one or more of the above provisions.

                  (c) SUBSTITUTION OR ASSUMPTION OF OPTIONS BY THE COMPANY. The
Company, from time to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards
granted by another company, whether in connection with an acquisition of such
other company or otherwise, by either (A) granting an option under the Plan in
substitution of such other company's award, or (B) assuming such award as if it
had been granted under the Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be
applied to an option granted under the Plan. Such substitution or assumption
shall be permissible if the holder of the substituted or assumed option would
have been eligible to be granted an option under the Plan if the other company
had applied the rules of the Plan to such grant. In the event the Company
assumes an award granted by another company, the terms and conditions of such
award shall remain unchanged (except that the exercise price and the number and
nature of shares issuable upon exercise of any such option will be adjusted
appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code). In the event the Company
elects to grant a new option rather than assuming an existing option, such new
option may be granted with a similarly adjusted exercise price.

         6. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS. Each option granted under this Plan
shall be evidenced by a stock option agreement (hereinafter called "Agreement")
which is not inconsistent with this Plan, and the form of which the Committee
and/or Board may from time to time determine, provided that the Agreement shall
contain the substance of the following:

                  (a) OPTION PRICE. The option price shall be not less than 100%
of the fair market value of the Shares at the time the option is granted, which
shall be the date the Committee and/or Board, or its delegate, awards the grant,
except in the case of non-statutory stock options granted to employees, in which
case the option price shall be not less than 85% of the fair market value of the
Shares at the time the option is granted. If the optionee, at the time the
option is granted, owns stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the
total combined voting power of all the classes of stock of the Company or of its
parent or subsidiaries (a "Principal Shareholder"), the option price of either
incentive or non-statutory stock options shall be not less than 110% of the fair
market value of the Shares at the time the option is granted. The fair market
value of the Shares shall be determined and the option price of the Shares set
by the Committee and/or Board in accordance with the valuation methods described
in Section 20.2031-2 of the Treasury Regulations.

                  (b) METHOD OF EXERCISE. At the time of purchase, Shares
purchased under options shall be paid for in full either (i) in cash, (ii) at
the discretion of the Board, with a promissory note secured by the Shares
purchased, (iii) at the discretion of the Committee and/or Board, with
outstanding stock of the Company at such value as the Board shall determine in
its sole discretion to be the fair market value of such stock, or (iv) a
combination of promissory note (if permitted pursuant to (ii) above), stock (if
permitted pursuant to (iii) above), and/or cash. To the extent that the right to
purchase Shares has accrued under an option, the optionee may exercise said
option from time to time by giving written notice to the Company stating the
number of Shares with respect to which the optionee is exercising the option,
and submitting

                                                                     Page 3 of 6
<PAGE>

with said notice payment of the full purchase price of said Shares either in
cash or, at the discretion of the Board and/or Committee as described above,
with a promissory note, outstanding stock of the Company, or a combination of
cash, promissory note, and/or such stock. As soon as practicable after
receiving such notice and payment, the Company shall issue, without transfer
or issue tax to the optionee (or other person entitled to exercise the
option), and at the main office of the Company or such other place as shall
be mutually acceptable, a certificate or certificates representing such
Shares out of authorized but unissued Shares or reacquired Shares of its
capital stock, as the Board and/or Committee, or its delegate, may elect, for
the number of Shares to be delivered. The time of such delivery may be
postponed by the Company for such period as may be required for it with
reasonable diligence to comply with such procedures as may, in the opinion of
counsel to the Company, be desirable in view of federal and state laws,
including corporate securities laws and revenue and taxation laws. If the
optionee (or other person entitled to exercise the option) fails to accept
delivery of any or all of the number of Shares specified in such notice upon
tender of delivery of the certificates representing them, the right to
exercise the option with respect to such undelivered Shares may be terminated.

                  (c) OPTION TERM. The Committee and/or Board may grant options
for any term, but shall not grant any options for a term longer than ten (10)
years from the date the option is granted (except in the case of an incentive or
non-statutory option granted to a Principal Shareholder in which case the term
shall be no longer than five (5) years from the date the option is granted).
Each option shall be subject to earlier termination as provided in this section
6 of this Plan.

                  (d) EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. Each option granted under this Plan
shall be exercisable on such date or dates, upon or after the occurrence of
certain events, or upon or after the achievement of certain performance
milestones (which dates may be advanced or which occurrences or achievements may
be waived in whole or in part or extended at the discretion of the Committee
and/or Board) and during such period and for such number of Shares as shall be
determined by the Committee and/or Board. An incentive option granted to a
non-officer may not be exercised at any time unless the optionee shall have
continuously served, to the extent determined by the Committee and/or Board, as
an employee of the Company or its subsidiary throughout a period commencing on
the date an option is granted and ending at a specified time no more than three
(3) months and no fewer than thirty (30) days before an attempted exercise of
the option, and, if applicable, unless the Committee and/or Board shall
determine and notify the optionee in writing that certain events have occurred
or certain performance milestones have been achieved.

                  (e) NONASSIGNABILITY OF OPTION RIGHTS. No option shall be
assignable or transferable by the optionee except by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution. During the life of an optionee, the option shall be
exercisable only by the optionee.

                  (f) EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR DEATH OR
DISABILITY. In the event the optionee's employment with the Company and its
subsidiaries ceases, as determined by the Committee, during the optionee's life
for any reason (except disability or death), including retirement, any incentive
option or unexercised portion thereof granted to a non-officer optionee which is
otherwise exercisable shall terminate unless exercised within a specified period
not to

                                                                     Page 4 of 6
<PAGE>

exceed three (3) months nor to be fewer than thirty (30) days from the date
on which such employment ceased but not later than the date of expiration of
the option period. In the event of the death or disability of the optionee
while employed or within a specified period not to exceed three (3) months
nor to be fewer than thirty (30) days from the date on which such employment
ceases, any option or unexercised portion thereof granted to the optionee, if
otherwise exercisable by the optionee at the date of death or disability, may
be exercised by the optionee (or by the optionee's personal representatives,
heirs or legatees) at any time prior to the expiration of one year from the
date of death or disability of the optionee but not later than the date of
expiration of the option period. For purposes of this Plan, "disability"
shall be defined as those conditions described in Code Section 22(e)(3), and
such other conditions as the Committee may reasonably determine constitute a
disability.

                  (g) RIGHTS OF OPTIONEE. The optionees shall have no rights as
a stockholder with respect to any Shares subject to an option until the date of
issuance of a stock certificate to the optionee for such Shares. No adjustment
shall be made for dividends or other rights of which the record date is prior to
the date such stock certificate is issued. Neither this Plan, nor any action or
agreement thereunder, shall confer any rights of employment, any rights to
election or retention as an officer or director, or any rights to serve as a
consultant.

         7. USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds from the sale of stock pursuant to
options granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company.

         8. AMENDMENT OF PLAN. The Board of Directors may at any time amend the
Plan, provided that no amendment may affect any then outstanding options or any
unexercised portions thereof. In addition, any amendment to the Plan increasing
the number of Shares reserved under the Plan, altering the employees or class of
employee eligible to be granted incentive stock options under the Plan, causing
options granted to employees and intended to be incentive options under the Plan
not to qualify as "incentive stock options" under Section 422A of the Code, or
amending this Section 8 shall be subject to shareholder approval as shall any
amendment which would cause the Plan not to satisfy the conditions of Rule 16b-3
once the Company registers a class of equity securities pursuant to Section 12
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

         9. FINANCIAL INFORMATION. Whenever the Company provides financial
statements, whether audited or unaudited, to all of its shareholders as a group,
the Company shall concurrently provide each optionee with a copy of such
financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall provide
each optionee at the end of its fiscal year with a copy of its financial
statements, either audited or unaudited, for such fiscal year, within ninety
(90) days after the end of such fiscal year if such person is then an optionee.
In connection with such provision, the Company may require the optionee to enter
into a nondisclosure agreement; provided, however, that such nondisclosure
agreement may not contain provisions which are more stringent than those the
Company imposes on its shareholders which are also receiving the financial
statements.

         10. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION OF PLAN. This Plan was adopted by
the Board of Directors on January 1, 1998, and approved by the shareholders on
January 1, 1998. The Board

                                                                     Page 5 of 6
<PAGE>

may terminate this Plan at any time. If not earlier terminated, the Plan
shall terminate on January 1, 2008. Termination of the Plan will not affect
rights and obligations theretofore granted and then in effect.

                  This Plan, the granting of any option hereunder, and the
issuance of stock upon the exercise of any option, shall be subject to such
approval or other conditions as may be required or imposed by any regulatory
authority having jurisdiction to issue regulations or rules with respect
thereto, including the securities laws of various governmental entities.

                                                                     Page 6 of 6<PAGE>

         shall no longer be exercisable).

TERMS OF AGREEMENT

         This Non-Statutory Stock Option Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and
entered into, as of the Date of Grant indicated above, between Advanced
Information Management Solutions, Inc., a California corporation (the
"Company"), and the Consultant indicated above, pursuant to the Company's Stock
Option Plan (the "Plan"), which reserves for issuance to persons serving the
Company and its Subsidiaries as employees and consultants certain shares of the
Company's no par value Common Stock (hereinafter called the "Common Stock"). As
used in this Agreement, the term "Subsidiary" shall mean any present or future
corporation which would be a "subsidiary corporation" of the Company, as that
term is defined in Sections 425(f) and (g) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
(the "Code").

         The Company desires to carry out the purposes of the Plan by affording
the Consultant, who is a consultant to the Company, an opportunity to purchase
shares of Common Stock by means of the grant of a non-statutory stock option,
under the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Accordingly, the Company and
the Consultant agree as follows:

         1. GRANT OF OPTION. The Company hereby grants to the Consultant,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the right and option
(hereinafter called the "Option") to purchase all or any part of the Total
Number of Option Shares indicated in the General Option Information above (such
number being subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 of this Agreement
and referred to in this Agreement as the "Option Shares").

         2. PURCHASE PRICE. The purchase price of the Option Shares shall be the
Option Exercise Price indicated in the General Option Information above, which
price has been determined by the Stock Option Committee (the "Committee")
appointed by the Board of Directors to be not less than the fair market value of
said shares as of the Date of Grant.

         3. TERMS OF OPTION. The Option shall expire on the Option Expiration
Date, and shall not be exercisable on or after that date,

                                                                            -2-
<PAGE>

(subject to earlier expiration of the Option in stages pursuant to the
Exercise Window in the General Option Information above). Subject to the
provisions of Section 8, the Option shall become exercisable as indicated in
the Exercise Schedule in the General Option Information section above.
Fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. Any Option
Shares with respect to which the Option becomes exercisable must be purchased
by the Consultant prior to the expiration of such Option Shares under the
Exercise Window provisions in the General Option Information above. If the
Option is not exercised during the Exercise Window with respect to Option
Shares which become exercisable, the Option shall expire as to such Option
Shares, and they shall not thereafter be exercisable. Notwithstanding the
above, the limitation imposed by the Exercise Window shall not reduce the
time periods specified in Sections 5 or 6 below for exercise of the Option in
the event of the Consultant's termination, death, or disability. If the
Option is exercised as to fewer than all of the Option Shares which are
available for exercise at the time, the Option cannot be exercised for less
than twenty percent (20%) of the Option Shares which are available for
exercise. The purchase price of the shares as to which the Option shall be
exercised shall be paid in full at time of exercise as provided in Section 8.
The Consultant shall not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect
to the Option Shares as to which there has been no exercise of the Option.

         4. NONTRANSFERABILITY. The Option shall not be transferable otherwise
than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and the Option may be
exercised, during the lifetime of the Consultant, only by the Consultant. More
particularly (but without limiting the generality of the foregoing), the Option
may not be assigned, transferred (except as provided above), pledged or
hypothecated in any way, shall not be assignable by operation of law and shall
not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempted
assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Option
contrary to the provisions hereof, and the levy of any execution, attachment or
similar process upon the Option, shall be null and void and without effect.

         5. TERMINATION OF CONSULTING. The effect of termination of the
Consultant's service to the Company (except for reasons specified in Section 6
below) shall be as specified in the General Option Information above. Nothing in
this Agreement shall confer upon the Consultant any right to continue to be
retained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or interfere in any way with
the right of the Company or any such Subsidiary to terminate the Consultant's
service at any time.

         6. DEATH OR DISABILITY OF CONSULTANT. If, prior to the Option
Expiration Date, the Consultant shall die or become disabled, the Option shall
remain exercisable following such event as to the number of Option Shares which
had become exercisable as of the date of such event under the Exercise Schedule
in the General Option Information above, but no

                                                                            -3-
<PAGE>

additional Option Shares shall become exercisable under the Option after the
date of such event. If such an event occurs, the Option may be exercised by
the Consultant (or by the Consultant's personal representatives, heirs or
legatees). Upon any such event, however, Option Shares which remain
exercisable as provided above shall cease to be exercisable in stages as
provided in the Exercise Window in the General Option Information above,
except that in no event shall any Option Shares which were exercisable as of
the date of such event expire within six (6) months after the date of such
event (except on the Option Expiration Date, on which date the Option shall
terminate and shall no longer be exercisable). For purposes of this
Agreement, "disability" shall be defined as those conditions described in
Code Section 22(e)(3), and such other conditions as the Committee may
reasonably determine constitute a disability.

         7. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.

                  (a) STOCK SPLITS AND LIKE EVENTS. If a stock dividend, stock
split or reverse stock split, or reclassification were to occur, then the
aggregate number and/or class of shares subject to this Option and the exercise
price prior to such occurrence shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee
in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and such adjustment shall be
conclusive. Such adjustment shall have the result that if the Consultant were to
exercise a portion of the Option subsequent to such occurrence, then Consultant
shall pay the same aggregate exercise price to exercise such portion of the
Option and shall then hold the same class and aggregate number of shares as if
the Consultant had exercised such portion of the Option immediately prior to
such occurrence.

                  (b) RECAPITALIZATION. In the event of (A) a dissolution,
liquidation, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company,
or (B) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving
entity, or (C) a merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the
shares of the Company's common stock outstanding immediately preceding the
merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other securities, cash, or
other property, then, at the sole discretion of the Board and to the extent
permitted by applicable law, the Option:

         (1) shall terminate upon such event and may be exercised prior thereto
         only to the extent the Option was then exercisable, provided the
         Consultant has been given at lease fifteen (15) days advance notice of
         the closing of such transaction; or

         (2) shall terminate upon such event, or such date prior to the
         consummation of the event as the Board may determine, but shall become
         fully exercisable as to all shares upon the consummation of such event
         or on such date determined by the Board; or

                                                                            -4-
<PAGE>

         (3) shall continue in full force and effect and, if applicable, the
         surviving entity shall assume the Option and/or shall substitute a
         similar option for the Option; or

         (4) shall be treated as provided in the applicable agreement or plan of
         merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation, sale of assets or
         other similar agreement.

         8. METHOD OF EXERCISING OPTION; INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION. Subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Option may be exercised by
written notice to the Company at its main office. Such notice shall be in a form
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and shall state the election to exercise
the Option and the number of shares in respect of which it is being exercised
and shall be signed by the person or persons so exercising the Option. Such
notice shall be accompanied by payment of the full purchase price of such shares
in cash or by check. The Company shall deliver a certificate or certificates
representing such shares as soon as practicable after the notice shall be
received. The certificate or certificates for the shares as to which the Option
shall have been so exercised shall be registered in the name of the Consultant
and shall be delivered as provided above to or upon the written order of the
person or persons exercising the Option. In the event the Option shall be
exercised pursuant to Section 6 hereof after the death of the Consultant, such
notice shall be accompanied by appropriate proof of the right of such person or
persons to exercise the Option. All shares purchased upon the exercise of the
Option as provided herein shall be fully paid and nonassessable.

                  The shares purchasable upon the exercise of options granted
under the Plan have not been registered under the Federal Securities Act of 1933
(the "Act"), or qualified under the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968
(the "Law"). Therefore, unless the Option Shares are so registered and qualified
prior to Consultant acquiring them by exercising the Option, the Option Shares
shall be subject to the following restrictions and all certificates representing
the Option Shares shall bear conspicuous legends containing said restrictions:

                  THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
                  REGISTERED UNDER THE FEDERAL SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
                  AMENDED (THE "ACT") IN RELIANCE IN PART ON THE EXEMPTION
                  PROVIDED BY RULE 701, OR QUALIFIED UNDER THE CALIFORNIA
                  CORPORATE SECURITIES LAW OF 1968 (THE "LAW"). THE SHARES HAVE
                  BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND CONSTITUTE RESTRICTED
                  SECURITIES FOR PURPOSES OF RULE 144. NEITHER SAID SHARES NOR
                  ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OFFERED FOR
                  SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR
                  THE SHARES UNDER THE ACT

                                                                            -5-
<PAGE>

                  AND QUALIFICATION UNDER THE LAW, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
                  SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION AND
                  QUALIFICATION ARE NOT REQUIRED AS TO SAID TRANSFER, SALE OR
                  OFFER.

                  Until registration of the Option Shares under the Act and
qualification under the Law, the notice of exercise shall require the Consultant
to represent that the Consultant is acquiring the Option Shares for the
Consultant's own account, for investment, and not for purposes of resale or
distribution and each subsequent purchaser shall be required to so represent
until such registration. The Company may prohibit any sale or transfer of any
interest in the Option Shares by a person so representing for one year (or such
longer time as the Company reasonably deems appropriate) if such person cannot
demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Company that such sale or transfer was
occasioned by circumstances which had changed from the date such person made
such representation and that such representation was therefore truthful when
made.

         9. DELIVERY OF PLAN. The Consultant acknowledges that the Consultant
has received from the Company a copy of the Plan pursuant to which this
Agreement is made and entered into.

         10. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.

                  (a) INITIATION OF RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Until a public
offering of the Company's Common Stock has occurred with proceeds to the Company
of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) and a per share price valuing the
Company's total outstanding Common Stock at at least Forty-Five Million Dollars
($45,000,000), the Consultant (which for purposes of this Section 10 shall
include the Consultant's heirs, executors, administrators and transferees, and
shall be referred to as the "Shareholder") shall not sell pledge, assign, or
otherwise transfer any of the Shareholder's interest in any of the Option Shares
acquired upon exercise of the Option without first offering to the Company or
its designees the right and option to purchase said shares as provided
hereinafter in this Section 10 (the "Right of First Refusal"). Notwithstanding
the above, the Consultant may sell or transfer any interest in any of said
Option Shares to the Consultant's spouse or children, or to a trustee or
custodian for the benefit of the Consultant or Consultant's spouse or children
(collectively, "Permitted Transferees") without first offering said Option
Shares to the Company or its designees, provided such buyer or transferee agrees
in writing to be bound by the restrictions set forth in this Section 10 and
Section 8 of this Agreement.

                  In the event of a pledge or other hypothecation of the Option
Shares, or the granting of any option or other right to purchase the Option
Shares, then the Right of First Refusal shall come into existence

                                                                            -6-
<PAGE>

at the time of any sale or transfer of ownership of the Option Shares
pursuant to the foreclosure under such pledge or hypothecation or exercise of
such option or right, as the case may be; provided, however, that Consultant
may not pledge or hypothecate the Option Shares or grant an option or right
to purchase the Option Shares unless the pledge holder or option or right
holder, as the case may be, agrees in writing at the time of the pledge or
grant of the option or right to be bound by the Right of First Refusal as
contained in this Section 10 and to cause any proposed assignee or transferee
of such pledge or right or option to execute and deliver to the Company a
similar writing prior to such assignment or transfer.

                  (b) MECHANICS. Any Shareholder desiring to sell any or all of
the Option Shares during such time period shall give written notice to the
Company of the Shareholder's bona fide intention to sell the Option Shares
pursuant to a bona fide written offer of a third party other than the Company
(the "Proposed Purchaser"). The notice shall include a photocopy of such written
offer which shall specify the identity of the Proposed Purchaser, the number of
such Option Shares proposed to be sold (hereinafter the "Offered Shares"), and
the price and payment terms of the proposed offer to buy the Offered Shares. The
payment terms of the Proposed Purchaser to the Shareholder (and of the
Shareholder to the Company) must be cash, cash equivalent (a certificate of
deposit, shares of stock in a publicly traded company, and the like), or a
promissory note of the Proposed Purchaser payable on date(s) specified by
passage of time. The Company or its designees shall have the right and option to
purchase the Offered Shares, at the price and on the payment terms specified in
the Shareholder's notice, for a period of sixty (60) days from receipt of said
notice from the Shareholder. That is, such notice by the Shareholder constitutes
an irrevocable offer by the Shareholder to sell the Offered Shares to the
Company or its designees at the price and payment terms specified in such notice
for sixty (60) days from the Company's receipt of such notice.

                  The Company shall exercise its option by giving written notice
(the "Original Notice") to the Shareholder stating that it is exercising its
option. The Company may not exercise the option as to fewer than all of the
Offered Shares. The Shareholder shall deliver certificates representing the
Offered Shares purchased by the Company or its designees against payment for the
account of the Shareholder of the purchase price in compliance with the terms of
the bona fide offer within thirty (30) days of the option exercise notice.

                  In the event both the Company and its designees fail to
exercise their option as provided in this section, the Offered Shares may be
sold by the Shareholder to the Proposed Purchaser within a period of sixty (60)
days following the end of the Company's sixty (60)-day option period specified
above, provided that (1) such sale is made at a price and on terms no more
favorable to the Proposed Purchaser than those made

                                                                            -7-
<PAGE>

available to the Company and its designees under this section, (2) the
Proposed Purchaser delivers a written undertaking to the Company to be bound
by the restrictions on the Option Shares set forth in this Section 10 and
Section 8 of this Agreement, and (3) the Company receives an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to it that the sale to the Proposed Purchaser
complies with applicable federal and state corporate securities laws.

                  Upon receipt of a writing from Shareholder and Proposed
Purchaser that the foregoing conditions have been satisfied and the purchase
price paid to the Shareholder by the Proposed Purchasers, the Company shall
transfer the ownership of record to the Proposed Purchaser (and reissue the
certificate).

                  If within this sixty (60)-day period the Shareholder does not
enter into an agreement for such a sale of Offered Shares to the Proposed
Purchaser which is consummated within thirty (30) days of the execution thereof,
the Right of First Refusal shall be revived as to the Offered Shares which shall
not be sold or transferred unless the Shareholder first offers the Company the
right and option to repurchase all such Option Shares in accordance with this
Section.

                  Any transfer or purported transfer of the Option Shares or any
interest therein shall be null and void unless the terms and conditions of this
Section 10 are strictly observed and followed, or such terms and conditions are
waived by the Company's Board of Directors.

                  In addition to the other legends described in this Agreement,
all certificates representing the Option Shares shall bear the following legend:

                  THESE SHARES ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO CERTAIN TRANSFER
                  RESTRICTIONS, INCLUDING A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL, AS SET FORTH
                  IN A NON-STATUTORY STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT ON FILE WITH THE
                  SECRETARY.

         11. NOTICES. Any notice required to be given pursuant to this Agreement
shall be deemed effectively given (i) to the Company upon personal delivery to
the Company's President, or three (3) days after it is deposited in the U.S.
mail, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the
Company at it principal executive office, Attention: President, and (ii) to the
Consultant upon personal delivery or three (3) days after it is deposited in the
U.S. mail, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the
Consultant at his address appearing in the General Option Information section of
this Agreement. Either party may designate another address for purposes of
receiving notices under this Agreement by giving written notice to the other
party of such new address in accordance with this section.

                                                                            -8-
<PAGE>

         12. INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES AND ADVICE. It is intended that the
exercise of this Option will be taxed as a non-statutory stock option. Upon
exercise of a non-statutory option, an optionee realizes income for tax purposes
equal to the difference between the then fair market value of the shares
purchased and the exercise price, and the Corporation is entitled to a
compensation expense deduction in the same amount. The Consultant represents
that he has not relied upon any tax advice from the Corporation or its counsel,
however, in making the decision to enter into this Agreement.

         13. CONFIDENTIALITY AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION.

                  (a) CONFIDENTIALITY. The Company has a general policy of
maintaining the confidentiality of certain corporate records. The Consultant
shall be subject to such policy and all certificates representing the Option
Shares shall bear the following legend:

                  THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF THESE SHARES, AND SUCH HOLDER'S AGENTS
                  AND ATTORNEYS, MAY BE REQUIRED TO EXECUTE NONDISCLOSURE
                  STATEMENTS PRIOR TO BEING PERMITTED TO INSPECT CERTAIN RECORDS
                  OF THE COMPANY.

                  (b) FINANCIAL INFORMATION. Whenever the Company provides
financial statements, whether audited or unaudited, to all of its shareholders
as a group, the Company shall concurrently provide the Consultant with a copy of
such financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall
provide the Consultant at the end of its fiscal year with a copy of its
financial statements, either audited or unaudited, for such fiscal year, within
ninety (90) days after the end of such fiscal year, if this Option is then still
in effect.

                  The Consultant acknowledges that such financial statements are
confidential information of the Company and are being provided solely in order
to assist Consultant in the decision of whether and when to exercise the Option.
The Consultant agrees (1) to maintain the confidentiality of all such financial
statements and not to disclose the contents of such financial statements to any
third party without the prior written consent of an officer of the Company and
(2) not to use such financial statements for any other purpose.
