                           WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 414(q) OF THE CODE.]

SECTION 4. OFFERING DATES.

         The right to purchase stock hereunder shall be made available by a
series of three month offerings (the "Offering" or "Offerings") to
Employees eligible in accordance with Section 3 hereof. The Committee will, in
its discretion, determine the applicable date of commencement ("Offering
Commencement Date") and termination date ("Offering Termination Date") for each
Offering and the number of Offerings to be made available under the Plan.
Participation in any one or more of the Offerings under the Plan shall neither
limit, nor require, participation in any other Offering.

SECTION 5. PARTICIPATION.

deduction authorization form provided by the Company and filing it with the
office of the plan administrator appointed by the Committee (the "Plan
Administrator") at least 20 days prior to an applicable Offering Commencement
Date. A participant who purchases shares of Common

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Stock in one Offering will be deemed to have elected to participate in each
subsequent Offering, provided such participant is eligible to participate during
each such subsequent Offering and provided that such participant has not
specifically elected not to participate in such subsequent Offering. Such
participant will also be deemed to have authorized the same rate of payroll
deductions under Section 6 hereof for each such subsequent Offering as in the
immediately preceding Offering; provided however, that, at least 20 days prior
to the Offering Commencement Date for each new Offering, the participant may
elect to change such participant's payroll deductions by submitting a new
payroll deduction authorization form or elect not to participate in the new
Offering.

SECTION 6. PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS.

         (a)      At the time a participant files his or her authorization for a
                  payroll deduction, he or she shall elect to have deductions
                  made from his or her pay on each payday during any Offering in
                  which he or she is a participant at a specified percentage of
                  his or her Compensation; said percentage shall be in
                  increments of one percent up to a maximum percentage of ten
                  percent.

         (b)      Payroll deductions for a participant shall commence on the
                  applicable Offering Commencement Date when his or her
                  authorization for a payroll deduction becomes effective and
                  subject to the last sentence of Section 5 shall end on the
                  Offering Termination Date of the Offering to which such
                  authorization is applicable unless sooner terminated by the
                  participant as provided in Section 10.

         (c)      All payroll deductions made for a participant shall be
                  credited to his or her account under the Plan. A participant
                  may not make any separate cash payment into such account.

         (d)      A participant may withdraw from the Plan at any time during
                  the applicable Offering period.

SECTION 7. GRANTING OF OPTION.

         (a)      Except as provided in clause (ii) of Section 3(b), on the
                  Offering Commencement Date of each Offering, a participating
                  Employee shall be deemed to have been granted an option to
                  purchase a maximum number of shares of the Common Stock equal
                  to two times an amount determined as follows: (i) an amount
                  equal to 85% of the market value per share of the Common Stock
                  on the applicable Offering Commencement Date shall be divided
                  into (ii) an amount equal to (A) the percentage of the
                  Employee's Compensation which he or she has elected to have
                  withheld (but no more than 10%) multiplied by (B) the
                  aggregate amount of the Compensation payable to the Employee
                  over the Offering period. Such market value per share of the
                  Common Stock shall be determined as provided in clause (i) of
                  Section 7(b).

         (b)      The option price of the Common Stock purchased with payroll
                  deductions made during each such Offering for the account of a
                  participating Employee shall be 85% of the lower of:

                  (i)      the closing price per share as reported by a
                           nationally recognized stock exchange, or, if the
                           Common Stock is not listed on such an exchange, as
                           reported by the National Association of Securities
                           Dealers Automated Quotation System ("Nasdaq")
                           National Market System or, if the Common Stock is not
                           listed on the Nasdaq National Market System but is
                           otherwise publicly traded over-the-counter, 85% of
                           the mean of the bid and asked prices per share on the
                           Offering Commencement Date or, if the Common Stock is
                           not traded over-the-counter, 85% of the fair market
                           value as determined by the Committee (collectively,
                           the "Market Value"), determined as of the Offering
                           Commencement Date; and

                  (ii)     the Market Value determined as of the Offering
                           Termination Date.

SECTION 8. EXERCISE OF OPTION.

         (a)      Unless a participant gives written notice to the Plan
                  Administrator prior to the Offering Termination Date as
                  hereinafter provided, his or her option for the purchase of
                  Common Stock with payroll deductions made during any Offering
                  will automatically be deemed to have been exercised on the
                  Offering Termination Date applicable to such Offering for the
                  purchase of the number of full shares of Common Stock which
                  the accumulated payroll deductions in his or her account at
                  that time will purchase at the applicable option price (but
                  not in excess of the number of shares for which options have
                  been granted the Employee pursuant to Section 7(a)), and any
                  excess in his or her account at that time, other than amounts
                  representing fractional shares, will be returned to him or
                  her.

         (b)      Fractional shares will not be issued under the Plan and any
                  accumulated payroll deductions which would have been used to
                  purchase fractional shares shall be automatically carried
                  forward to the next Offering unless the participant elects, by
                  written notice to the Plan Administrator, to have the excess
                  cash returned to him or her.

SECTION 9. DELIVERY OF SHARES.

         The Company shall deliver to each participant (as promptly as possible
after the appropriate Offering Termination Date), a certificate representing the
Common Stock purchased upon exercise of his or her option.

SECTION 10. WITHDRAWAL AND TERMINATION.

         (a)      Prior to the Offering Termination Date for an Offering, any
                  participant may withdraw the payroll deductions credited to
                  his or her account under the Plan for such Offering by giving
                  written notice to the Plan Administrator. All of the

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

                  participant's payroll deductions credited to such account will
                  be paid to him or her promptly after receipt of notice of
                  withdrawal, without interest, and no future payroll deductions
                  will be made from his or her pay during such Offering. The
                  Company will treat any attempt to borrow by a participant on
                  the security of accumulated payroll deductions as an election
                  to withdraw such deductions.

         (b)      A participant's election not to participate in, or withdrawal
                  from, any Offering will not have any effect upon his or her
                  eligibility to participate in any succeeding Offering or in
                  any similar plan which may hereafter be adopted by the
                  Company.

         (c)      Upon termination of the participant's employment for any
                  reason, including retirement but excluding death, the payroll
                  deductions credited to his or her account will be returned to
                  him or her, or, in the case of death, to the person or persons
                  entitled thereto under Section 14.

         (d)      Upon termination of the participant's employment because of
                  death, his or her beneficiary (as defined in Section 14) shall
                  have the right to elect, by written notice given to the Plan
                  Administrator prior to the expiration of a period of 90 days
                  commencing with the date of the death of the participant, but
                  not beyond the Offering Termination Date next following the
                  date of death, either:

                  (i)      to withdraw all of the payroll deductions credited to
                           the participant's account under the Plan; or

                  (ii)     to exercise the participant's option for the purchase
                           of stock on the Offering Termination Date next
                           following the date of the participant's death for the
                           purchase of the number of full shares which the
                           accumulated payroll deductions in the participant's
                           account at the date of the participant's death will
                           purchase at the applicable option price (subject to
                           the limitation contained in Section 7(a)), and any
                           excess in such account will be returned to said
                           beneficiary. In the event that no such written notice
                           of election shall be duly received by the office of
                           the Plan Administrator, the beneficiary shall
                           automatically be deemed to have elected to withdraw
                           the payroll deductions credited to the participant's
                           account at the date of the participant's death and
                           the same will be paid promptly to said beneficiary.

         No interest will be paid or allowed on any money paid into the Plan or
credited to the account of any participating Employee.

SECTION 12. STOCK.

         (a)      The maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for
                  issuance and purchase by Employees under the Plan, subject to
                  adjustment upon changes in capitalization of the Company as
                  provided in Section 17, shall be

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
                  150,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of
                  the Company, which number shall increase on each of the First
                  Five (5) anniversaries of the effective date of this Plan by
                  an amount, if any, equal to the lesser of: (i) 50,000 shares
                  or (ii) an amount determined by the Board. Notwithstanding
                  the foregoing, the maximum cumulative number of shares of
                  Stock available for issuance and purchase by Employees under
                  the Plan is 400,000, subject to adjustment upon changes in
                  capitalization of the Company as provided in Section 17. If
                  the total number of shares for which options are exercised on
                  any Offering Termination Date in accordance with Section 8
                  exceeds the maximum number of shares for the applicable
                  Offering, the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the
                  shares available for delivery and distribution in an equitable
                  manner, and the balances of payroll deductions credited to the
                  account of each participant under the Plan shall be returned
                  to the participant.

         (b)      The participant will have no interest in stock covered by his
                  or her option until such option has been exercised.

SECTION 13. ADMINISTRATION.

         The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The interpretation and
construction of any provision of the Plan and adoption of rules and regulations
for administering the Plan shall be made by the Committee. Determinations made
by the Committee with respect to any matter or provision contained in the Plan
shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Company and upon all
participants, their heirs or legal representatives. Any rule or regulation
adopted by the Committee shall remain in full force and effect unless and until
altered, amended, or repealed by the Committee.

SECTION 14. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY.

         A participant shall file with the Plan Administrator a written
designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any Common Stock and/or cash
under the Plan. Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the
participant at any time by written notice. Upon the death of a participant and
upon receipt by the Company of proof of the identity and existence at the
participant's death of a beneficiary validly designated by him or her under the
Plan, the Company shall deliver such Common Stock and/or cash to such
beneficiary. In the event of the death of a participant and in the absence of a
beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such
participant's death, the Company shall deliver such Common Stock and/or cash to
the executor or administrator of the estate of the participant. No beneficiary
shall prior to the death of the participant by whom he or she has been
designated, acquire any interest in the Common Stock and/or cash credited to the
participant under the Plan.

SECTION 15. TRANSFERABILITY.

         Neither payroll deductions credited to a participant's account nor any
rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive Common Stock under
the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged, or otherwise disposed of in any
way by the participant other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution. Any such attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, or other
disposition shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act
as an election to withdraw funds in accordance with Section 10.

SECTION 16. USE OF FUNDS.

         All payroll deductions received or held by the Company under this Plan
may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not
be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions.

SECTION 17. EFFECT OF CHANGES OF COMMON STOCK.

         If the Company shall subdivide or reclassify the Common Stock which has
been or may be subject to options under this Plan, or shall declare thereon any
dividend payable in shares of such Common Stock, or shall take any other action
of a similar nature affecting such Common Stock, then the number and class of
shares of Common Stock which may thereafter be subject to options under the Plan
(in the aggregate and to any participant) shall be adjusted accordingly and in
the case of each option outstanding at the time of any such action, the number
and class of shares which may thereafter be purchased pursuant to such option
and the option price per share shall be adjusted to such extent as may be
determined by the Committee, with the approval of independent public accountants
and counsel, to be necessary to preserve the rights of the holder of such
option.

SECTION 18. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION.

         The Board may at any time terminate or amend the Plan. Except as
provided in Section 20, no such termination shall affect options previously
granted, nor may an amendment make any change in any option theretofore granted

the Plan without the consent of such participant.

favorable federal income tax treatment afforded employee stock purchase plans
under Section 423 of the Code.

the Board (the "Committee") consisting of not less than two (2) persons each of
whom qualifies as an Independent Director, an Outside Director and a
Non-Employee Director, but the authority and validity of any act taken or not
taken by the Committee shall not be affected if any person administering the

Director. Except as specifically reserved to the Board under the terms of the
Plan, the Committee shall have full and final authority to operate, manage and
administer the Plan on behalf of the Company.

         (b)      Powers of Committee. The Committee shall have the power and
authority to grant and modify Awards consistent with the terms of the Plan,
including the power and authority:

                  (i)      to select the persons to whom Awards may from time to
time be granted;

                  (ii)     to determine the time or times of grant, and the
extent, if any, of Incentive Stock Options, Non-Statutory Stock Options,
Restricted Stock and Unrestricted Stock, or any combination of the foregoing,
granted to any one or more participants;

                  (iii)    to determine the number of shares to be covered by
any Award;

                  (iv)     to determine and modify the terms and conditions,
including restrictions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any
Award, which terms and conditions may differ among individual Awards and
participants, and to approve the form of written instruments evidencing the
Awards; provided, however, that no such action shall adversely affect rights
under any outstanding Award without the participant's consent;

                  (v)      to accelerate the exercisability or vesting of all or
any portion of any Award;

                  (vi)     to extend the period in which any outstanding Stock
Option may be exercised; and

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

                  (vii)    to adopt, alter and repeal such rules, guidelines and
practices for administration of the Plan and for its own acts and proceedings as
it shall deem advisable; to interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan and
any Award (including related written instruments); to make all determinations it
deems advisable for the administration of the Plan; to decide all disputes
arising in connection with the Plan; and to otherwise supervise the
administration of the Plan.

         All decisions and interpretations of the Committee shall be binding on
all persons, including the Company and Plan participants. No member or former
member of the Committee or the Board shall be liable for any action or
determination made in good faith with respect to this Plan.

SECTION 3. SHARES ISSUABLE UNDER THE PLAN; MERGERS; SUBSTITUTION.

         (a)      Shares Issuable. The maximum number of shares of Stock which
may be issued in respect of Awards granted under the Plan, subject to adjustment
upon changes in capitalization of the Company as provided in this Section 3,
shall be 1,000,000 shares which number shall increase on each of the first five
(5) anniversaries of the effective date of this Plan by an amount, if any, equal
to the lesser of: (i) 150,000 shares of Stock or (ii) an amount determined by
the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum cumulative number of
shares of Stock with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan is
1,750,000 shares subject to adjustment upon changes in capitalization of the
Company as provided in this Section 3. For purposes of this limitation, the
shares of Stock underlying any Awards which are forfeited, cancelled, reacquired
by the Company or otherwise terminated (other than by exercise), shares that are
tendered in payment of the exercise price of any Award and shares that are
tendered or withheld for tax withholding obligations shall be added back to the
shares of Stock with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan.
Shares issued under the Plan may be authorized but unissued shares or shares
reacquired by the Company.

         (b)      Limitation on Awards. In no event may any Plan participant be
granted Awards with respect to more than 500,000 shares of Stock in any calendar
year. The number of shares of Stock relating to an Award granted to a Plan
participant in a calendar year that is subsequently forfeited, cancelled or
otherwise terminated shall continue to count toward the foregoing limitation in
such calendar year. In addition, if the exercise price of an Award is
subsequently reduced, the transaction shall be deemed a cancellation of the
original Award and the grant of a new one so that both transactions shall count
toward the maximum shares issuable in the calendar year of each respective
transaction.

         (c)      Stock Dividends, Mergers, etc. In the event that after
approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company in accordance with
Section 15, the Company effects a stock dividend, stock split or similar change
in capitalization affecting the Stock, the Committee shall make appropriate
adjustments in (i) the number and kind of shares of stock or securities with
respect to which Awards may thereafter be granted (including without limitation
the limitations set forth in Sections 3(a) and (b) above), (ii) the number and
kind of shares remaining subject to outstanding Awards, and (iii) the option or
purchase price in respect of such shares. In the event

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

of any merger, consolidation, dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the
Committee in its sole discretion may, as to any outstanding Awards, make such
substitution or adjustment in the aggregate number of shares reserved for
issuance under the Plan and in the number and purchase price (if any) of shares
subject to such Awards as it may determine and as may be permitted by the terms
of such transaction, or accelerate, amend or terminate such Awards upon such
terms and conditions as it shall provide (which, in the case of the termination
of the vested portion of any Award, shall require payment or other consideration
which the Committee deems equitable in the circumstances), subject, however, to
the provisions of Section 13.

         (d)      Substitute Awards. The Committee may grant Awards under the
Plan in substitution for stock and stock based awards held by employees of
another corporation who concurrently become employees of the Company or an
Affiliate as the result of a merger or consolidation of the employing
corporation with the Company or an Affiliate or the acquisition by the Company
or an Affiliate of property or stock of the employing corporation. The Committee
may direct that the substitute awards be granted on such terms and conditions as
the Committee considers appropriate in the circumstances.

SECTION 4. ELIGIBILITY.

         Awards may be granted to officers, directors and employees of, and
consultants and advisers to, the Company or its Affiliates ("Eligible Persons").

SECTION 5. STOCK OPTIONS.

         The Committee may grant to Eligible Persons options to purchase stock.

         Any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be in such form as the
Committee may from time to time approve.

         Stock Options granted under the Plan may be either Incentive Stock
Options (subject to compliance with applicable law) or Non-Statutory Stock
Options. Unless otherwise so designated, an Option shall be a Non-Statutory
Stock Option. To the extent that any option does not qualify as an Incentive
Stock Option, it shall constitute a Non-Statutory Stock Option.

         No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted under the Plan after the
tenth anniversary of the date of adoption of the Plan by the Board.

         The Committee in its discretion may determine the effective date of
Stock Options, provided, however, that grants of Incentive Stock Options shall
be made only to persons who are, on the effective date of the grant, employees
of the Company or an Affiliate. Stock Options granted pursuant to this Section 5
shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the
terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable.

         (a)      Exercise Price. The exercise price per share for the Stock
covered by a Stock Option granted pursuant to this Section 5 shall be determined
by the Committee at the time of grant but shall be, in the case of incentive
stock options, not less than one hundred percent (100%) of Fair Market Value on
the date of grant. If an employee owns or is deemed to own (by reason of the
attribution rules applicable under Section 424(d) of the Code) more than ten

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

percent (10%) of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the
Company or any subsidiary or parent corporation and an Incentive Stock Option is
granted to such employee, the option price shall be not less than one hundred
ten percent (110%) of Fair Market Value on the date of grant.

         (b)      Option Term. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by
the Committee, but no Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable more than ten
(10) years after the date the option is granted. If an employee owns or is
deemed to own (by reason of the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code)
more than ten percent (10%) of the combined voting power of all classes of stock
of the Company or any subsidiary or parent corporation and an Incentive Stock
Option is granted to such employee, the term of such option shall be no more
than five (5) years from the date of grant.

         (c)      Exercisability; Rights of a Shareholder. Stock Options shall
become vested and exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in
installments, as shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee may at any
time accelerate the exercisability of all or any portion of any Stock Option. An
optionee shall have the rights of a shareholder only as to shares acquired upon
the exercise of a Stock Option and not as to unexercised Stock Options.

         (d)      Method of Exercise. Stock Options may be exercised in whole or
in part, by delivering written notice of exercise to the Company, specifying the
number of shares to be purchased. Payment of the purchase price may be made by
delivery of cash or bank check or other instrument acceptable to the Committee
in an amount equal to the exercise price of such Options, or, to the extent
provided in the applicable Option Agreement, by one or more of the following
methods:

                  (i)      by delivery to the Company of shares of Common Stock
of the Company that either have been purchased by the optionee on the open
market, or have been beneficially owned by the optionee for a period of at least
six months and are not then subject to restriction under any Company plan
("mature shares"); such surrendered shares shall have a fair market value equal
in amount to the exercise price of the Options being exercised; or

                  (ii)     a personal recourse note issued by the optionee to
the Company in a principal amount equal to such aggregate exercise price and
with such other terms, including interest rate and maturity, as the Company may
determine in its discretion; provided, however, that the interest rate borne by
such note shall not be less than the lowest applicable federal rate, as defined
in Section 1274(d) of the Code; or

                  (iii)    if the class of Common Stock is registered under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 at such time, by delivery to the Company of a
properly executed exercise notice along with irrevocable instructions to a
broker to deliver promptly to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable
to the Company for the purchase price; provided that in the event that the
optionee chooses to pay the purchase price as so provided, the optionee and the
broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of
indemnity and other agreements as the Committee shall prescribe as a condition
of such payment procedure (including, in the case of an optionee who is an
executive officer of the Company, such procedures and agreements as the
Committee deems appropriate in order to avoid any extension

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

of credit in the form of a personal loan to such officer). The Company need not
act upon such exercise notice until the Company receives full payment of the
exercise price; or

                  (iv)     by reducing the number of Option shares otherwise
issuable to the optionee upon exercise of the Option by a number of shares of
Common Stock having a fair market value equal to such aggregate exercise price;
provided, however, that the optionee otherwise holds an equal number of mature
shares; or

                  (v)      by any combination of such methods of payment.

         The delivery of certificates representing shares of Stock to be
purchased pursuant to the exercise of a Stock Option will be contingent upon
receipt from the Optionee (or a purchaser acting in his stead in accordance with
the provisions of the Stock Option) by the Company of the full purchase price
for such shares and the fulfillment of any other requirements contained in the
Stock Option or imposed by applicable law.

         (e)      Non-transferability of Options. Except as the Committee may
provide with respect to a Non-Statutory Stock Option, no Stock Option shall be
transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and
all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the optionee's lifetime, only by
the optionee.

         (f)      Annual Limit on Incentive Stock Options. To the extent
required for "incentive stock option" treatment under Section 422 of the Code,
the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the
Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under this Plan and
any other plan of the Company or its Affiliates become exercisable for the first
time by an optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000.

         (g)      Lockup Agreement. Each Option shall provide that the optionee
shall agree for a period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective
date of any registration of securities of the Company (upon request of the
Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company's
securities) not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the
purchase of, or otherwise dispose of, any shares issued pursuant to the exercise
of such Option, without the prior written consent of the Company or such
underwriters, as the case may be.

SECTION 6. RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS.

         (a)      Nature of Restricted Stock Award. The Committee in its
discretion may grant Restricted Stock Awards to any Eligible Person, entitling
the recipient to acquire, for such purchase price, if any, as may be determined
by the Committee, shares of Stock subject to such restrictions and conditions as
the Committee may determine at the time of grant ("Restricted Stock"), including
continued employment and/or achievement of pre-established performance goals and
objectives.

         (b)      Acceptance of Award. A participant who is granted a Restricted
Stock Award shall have no rights with respect to such Award unless the
participant shall have accepted the Award within sixty (60) days (or such
shorter date as the Committee may specify) following the award date by making
payment to the Company of the specified purchase price, if any, of the

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

shares covered by the Award and by executing and delivering to the Company a
written instrument that sets forth the terms and conditions applicable to the
Restricted Stock in such form as the Committee shall determine.

         (c)      Rights as a Shareholder. Upon complying with Section 6(b)
above, a participant shall have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to
the Restricted Stock, including voting and dividend rights, subject to
non-transferability restrictions and Company repurchase or forfeiture rights
described in this Section 6 and subject to such other conditions contained in
the written instrument evidencing the Restricted Award. Unless the Committee
shall otherwise determine, certificates evidencing shares of Restricted Stock
shall remain in the possession of the Company until such shares are vested as
provided in Section 6(e) below.

         (d)      Restrictions. Shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold,
assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of except as
specifically provided herein. In the event of termination of employment by the
Company and its Affiliates for any reason (including death, Disability, Normal
Retirement and for Cause), the Company shall have the right, at the discretion
of the Committee, to repurchase shares of Restricted Stock which have not then
vested at their purchase price, or to require forfeiture of such shares to the
Company if acquired at no cost, from the participant or the participant's legal
representative. The Company must exercise such right of repurchase or forfeiture
within ninety (90) days following such termination of employment (unless
otherwise specified in the written instrument evidencing the Restricted Stock
Award).

         (e)      Vesting of Restricted Stock. The Committee at the time of
grant shall specify the date or dates and/or the attainment of pre-established
performance goals, objectives and other conditions on which the
non-transferability of the Restricted Stock and the Company's right of
repurchase or forfeiture shall lapse. Subsequent to such date or dates and/or
the attainment of such pre-established performance goals, objectives and other
conditions, the shares on which all restrictions have lapsed shall no longer be
Restricted Stock and shall be deemed "vested." The Committee at any time may
accelerate such date or dates and otherwise waive or, subject to Section 11,
amend any conditions of the Award.

         (f)      Waiver, Deferral and Reinvestment of Dividends. The written
instrument evidencing the Restricted Stock Award may require or permit the
immediate payment, waiver, deferral or investment of dividends paid on the
Restricted Stock.

SECTION 7. UNRESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS.

         (a)      Grant or Sale of Unrestricted Stock. The Committee in its
discretion may grant or sell to any Eligible Person shares of Stock free of any
restrictions under the Plan ("Unrestricted Stock") at a purchase price
determined by the Committee. Shares of Unrestricted Stock may be granted or sold
as described in the preceding sentence in respect of past services or other
valid consideration.

         (b)      Restrictions on Transfers. The right to receive unrestricted
Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered,
other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

SECTION 8. TERMINATION OF STOCK OPTIONS.

         (a)      Incentive Stock Options:

                  (i)      Termination by Death. If any participant's employment
by the Company and its Affiliates terminates by reason of death, any Incentive
Stock Option owned by such participant may thereafter be exercised to the extent
exercisable at the date of death, by the legal representative or legatee of the
participant, for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days (or such longer
period as the Committee shall specify at any time) from the date of death, or
until the expiration of the stated term of the Incentive Stock Option, if
earlier.

                  (ii)     Termination by Reason of Disability or Normal
Retirement.

                  (A)      Any Incentive Stock Option held by a participant
whose employment by the Company and its Affiliates has terminated by reason of
Disability may thereafter be exercised, to the extent it was exercisable at the
time of such termination, for a period of ninety (90) days (or such longer
period as the Committee shall specify at any time) from the date of such
termination of employment, or until the expiration of the stated term of the
Option, if earlier.

                  (B)      Any Incentive Stock Option held by a participant
whose employment by the Company and its Affiliates has terminated by reason of
Normal Retirement may thereafter be exercised, to the extent it was exercisable
at the time of such termination, for a period of ninety (90) days (or such
longer period as the Committee shall specify at any time) from the date of such
termination of employment, or until the expiration of the stated term of the
Option, if earlier.

                  (C)      The Committee shall have sole authority and
discretion to determine whether a participant's employment has been terminated
by reason of Disability or Normal Retirement.

                  (iii)    Termination for Cause. If any participant's
employment by the Company and its Affiliates has been terminated for Cause, any
Incentive Stock Option held by such participant shall immediately terminate and
be of no further force and effect; provided, however, that the Committee may, in
its sole discretion, provide that such Option can be exercised for a period of
up to thirty (30) days from the date of termination of employment or until the
expiration of the stated term of the Option, if earlier.

                  (iv)     Other Termination. Unless otherwise determined by the
Committee, if a participant's employment by the Company and its Affiliates
terminates for any reason other than death, Disability, Normal Retirement or for
Cause, any Incentive Stock Option held by such participant may thereafter be
exercised, to the extent it was exercisable on the date of termination of
employment, for thirty (30) days (or such other period as the Committee shall
specify) from the date of termination of employment or until the expiration of
the stated term of the Option, if earlier.

         (b)      Non-Statutory Stock Options. Any Non-Statutory Stock Option
granted under the Plan shall contain such terms and conditions with respect to
its termination as the Committee, in its discretion, may from time to time
determine.

SECTION 9. TAX WITHHOLDING.

         (a)      Payment by Participant. Each participant shall, no later than
the date as of which the value of an Award or of any Stock or other amounts
received thereunder first becomes includable in the gross income of the
participant for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make
arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of any Federal,
state, local and/or payroll taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld
with respect to such income. The Company and its Affiliates shall, to the extent
permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of
any kind otherwise due to the participant.

         (b)      Payment in Shares. A Participant may elect, with the consent
of the Committee, to have such tax withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or
in part, by (i) authorizing the Company to withhold from shares of Stock to be
issued pursuant to an Award a number of shares with an aggregate Fair Market
Value (as of the date the withholding is effected) that would satisfy the
minimum withholding amount due with respect to such Award, or (ii) delivering to
the Company a number of mature shares of Stock with an aggregate Fair Market
Value (as of the date the withholding is effected) that would satisfy the
minimum withholding amount due.

         (c)      Notice of Disqualifying Disposition. Each holder of an
Incentive Option shall agree to notify the Company in writing immediately after
making a disqualifying disposition (as defined in Section 421(b) of the Code) of
any Stock purchased upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option.

SECTION 10. TRANSFER AND LEAVE OF ABSENCE.

         For purposes of the Plan, the following events shall not be deemed a
termination of employment:

         (a)      a transfer to the employment of the Company from an Affiliate
or from the Company to an Affiliate, or from one Affiliate to another;

         (b)      an approved leave of absence for military service or sickness,
or for any other purpose approved by the Company, if the employee's right to
re-employment is guaranteed either by a statute or by contract or under the
policy pursuant to which the leave of absence was granted or if the Committee
otherwise so provides in writing.

SECTION 11. AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION.

         The Board may at any time amend or discontinue the Plan and the
Committee may at any time amend or cancel any outstanding Award (or provide
substitute Awards at the same or reduced exercise or purchase price or with no
exercise or purchase price, but such price, if any, must satisfy the
requirements which would apply to the substitute or amended Award if it were
then initially granted under this Plan) for the purpose of satisfying changes in
law or for any

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

other lawful purpose, but no such action shall adversely affect rights under any
outstanding Award without the holder's consent.

         This Plan shall terminate as of the tenth anniversary of its effective
date. The Board may terminate this Plan at any earlier time for any reason. No
Award may be granted after the Plan has been terminated. No Award granted while
this Plan is in effect shall be altered or impaired by termination of this Plan,
except upon the consent of the holder of such Award. The power of the Committee
to construe and interpret this Plan and the Awards granted prior to the
termination of this Plan shall continue after such termination.

SECTION 12. STATUS OF PLAN.

         With respect to the portion of any Award which has not been exercised
and any payments in cash, Stock or other consideration not received by a
participant, a participant shall have no rights greater than those of a general
creditor of the Company unless the Committee shall otherwise expressly determine
in connection with any Award or Awards. In its sole discretion, the Committee
may authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the Company's
obligations to deliver Stock or make payments with respect to Awards hereunder,
provided that the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent
with the provision of the foregoing sentence.

SECTION 13. CHANGE OF CONTROL PROVISIONS.

after the effective date of such Change of Control, each holder of an
outstanding Stock Option or Restricted Stock Award shall be entitled, upon
exercise of such Award, to receive, in lieu of shares of Stock, shares of such
stock or other securities, cash or property (or consideration based upon shares
of such stock or other securities, cash or property) as the holders of shares of
Stock received in connection with the Change of Control;

                  (ii)     the Committee may accelerate, fully or in part, the
time for exercise of, and waive any or all conditions and restrictions on, each
unexercised and unexpired Stock Option and Restricted Stock Award, effective
upon a date prior or subsequent to the effective date of such Change of Control,
as specified by the Committee; or

                  (iii)    each outstanding Stock Option and Restricted Stock
Award may be cancelled by the Committee as of the effective date of any such
Change of Control provided that (x) prior written notice of such cancellation
shall be given to each holder of such an Award and (y) each holder of such an
Award shall have the right to exercise such Award to the extent that the same is
then exercisable or, in full, if the Committee shall have accelerated the time
for exercise of all such unexercised and unexpired Awards, during the thirty
(30) day period preceding the effective date of such Change of Control.

         (b)      "Change of Control" shall mean the occurrence of any one of
the following events:

                  (i)      any "person" (as such term is used in Sections 13(d)
and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) becomes, after the Effective Date of this
Plan, a "beneficial owner" (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated
under the Exchange Act) (other than the Company, any trustee or other fiduciary
holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company, or any
corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in
substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company),
directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty percent
(50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding
securities; or

                  (ii)     the stockholders of the Company approve a merger or
consolidation of the Company with any other corporation or other entity, other
than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of
the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent
(either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of
the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power
of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding
immediately after such merger or consolidation; or

                  (iii)    the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of
complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition
by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company's assets.

SECTION 14. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

         (a)      No Distribution; Compliance with Legal Requirements. The
Committee may require each person acquiring shares pursuant to an Award to
represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such person is acquiring
the shares without a view to distribution thereof.

         No shares of Stock shall be issued pursuant to an Award until all
applicable securities laws and other legal and stock exchange requirements have
been satisfied. The Committee may require the placing of such stop orders and
restrictive legends on certificates for Stock and Awards as it deems
appropriate.

         (b)      Delivery of Stock Certificates. Delivery of stock certificates
to participants under this Plan shall be deemed effected for all purposes when
the Company or a stock transfer agent of the Company shall have delivered such
certificates in the United States mail, addressed to the participant, at the
participant's last known address on file with the Company.

         (c)      Other Compensation Arrangements; No Employment Rights. Nothing
contained in this Plan shall prevent the Board from adopting other or additional
compensation arrangements, including trusts, subject to stockholder approval if
such approval is required; and such arrangements may be either generally
applicable or applicable only in specific cases. The adoption of the Plan or any
Award under the Plan does not confer upon any employee any right to continued
employment with the Company or any Affiliate.
