      2.3   Interpretation of Plan.

            (a) Committee Authority. Subject to Sections 4.2(iv) and 10, below,
the Committee shall have the authority to adopt, alter and repeal such
administrative rules, guidelines and practices governing the Plan as it shall,
from time to time, deem advisable, to interpret the terms and provisions of the
Plan and any award issued under the Plan (and to determine the form and
substance of all Agreements relating thereto), and to otherwise supervise the
administration of the Plan. Subject to Section 10, below, all decisions made by
the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be made in the
Committee's sole discretion and shall be final and binding upon all persons,
including the Company, its Subsidiaries and Holders.

            (b) Incentive Stock Options. Anything in the Plan to the contrary
notwithstanding, no term or provision of the Plan relating to Incentive Stock
Options (including but not limited to Stock Reload Options granted in
conjunction with an Incentive Stock Option) or any Agreement providing for
Incentive Stock Options shall be interpreted, amended or altered, nor shall any
discretion or authority granted under the Plan be so exercised, so as to
disqualify the Plan under Section 422 of the Code, without the consent of the
Holder(s) affected, to disqualify any Incentive Stock Option under such Section
422.

SECTION 3.        STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN.

      3.1 Number of Shares. The total number of shares of Common Stock reserved
and available for distribution under the Plan shall be 2,704,670 shares. Shares
of Stock under the Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and
unissued shares or treasury shares. If any shares of Stock that have been
granted pursuant to a Stock Option cease to be subject to a Stock Option, or if
any shares of Stock that are subject to any Restricted Stock, Reload Stock
Option or Other Stock-Based Award granted hereunder are forfeited or any such
award otherwise terminates without a payment being made to the Holder in the
form or Stock, such shares shall again be available for distribution in
connection with future grants and awards under the Plan. Only net shares issued
upon a stock-for-stock exercise (including stock used for withholding taxes)
shall be counted against the number of shares available under the Plan.

      3.2 Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization, Etc. In the event of any
merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, dividend (other than a
cash dividend), stock split, reverse stock split, or other change in corporate
structure affecting the Stock, such substitution or adjustment shall be made in
the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, in the
number and exercise price of shares subject to outstanding Options, and in the
number of shares subject to, and in the related terms of, other outstanding
awards (including but not limited to awards of Restricted Stock, Stock Reload
Options and Other Stock-Based Awards) granted under the Plan as may be
determined to be appropriate by the Committee in order to prevent dilution or
enlargement of rights, provided that the number of shares subject to any award
shall always be a whole number.

SECTION 4.        ELIGIBILITY.

      4.1 General. Awards may be made or granted to key employees, officers,
directors and consultants who are deemed to have rendered or to be able to
render significant services to the Company or its Subsidiaries and who are
deemed to have contributed or to have the potential to contribute to the success
of the Company. No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any person who is
not an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary at the time of grant.

      4.2   Directors' Awards.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary:

                  (i) The only awards to be granted to a director of the Company
hereunder (even if such person also acts in other capacities for the Company in
addition to being a director) shall be Stock Options with the terms set forth
below and in Section 6, below. If there is an inconsistency between the
provisions of Sections 4 and 6, the provisions of Section 4 shall control;

                  (ii) Any person who shall become a non-employee director of
the Company shall be awarded, on the date of becoming a director (or the
Effective Date if later), a stock option to purchase 30,000 shares of Common
Stock at the Fair Market Value thereof on the date of grant, which option shall
vest quarterly in equal amounts over three years, and shall have a term of ten
years; and

                  (iii) On the annual anniversary date of the appointment to
the Board of each non-employee director of the Company (or the next business day
thereafter if such day is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday) during the term
of the Plan, assuming there are enough shares then available for grant
hereunder, each such director shall be awarded an Incentive Stock Option to
purchase 5,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (to be adjusted in
accordance with Section 3.2, above) at the Fair Market Value thereof, which
option shall vest quarterly in equal amounts over three years, and shall have a
term of ten years; and

                  (iv) This Section 4.2 shall not be amended more than once
every six months, other than to comport with any changes in the Code or the
Employment Retirement Income Security Act, or the rules and regulations
promulgated under either of those statutes.

SECTION 5.        REQUIRED SIX-MONTH HOLDING PERIOD.

      5.1 Any equity security issued under this Plan must be held for at least
six months from the date of the grant of the related award.

SECTION 6.        STOCK OPTIONS.

      6.1 Grant and Exercise. Stock Options granted under the Plan may be of two
types: (i) Incentive Stock Options and (ii) Stock Options. Any Stock Option
granted under the Plan shall contain such terms, not inconsistent with this
Plan, or with respect to Incentive Stock Options, not inconsistent with the
Code, as the Committee may from time to time approve. The Committee shall

                                  Page 5 of 12
<PAGE>   6
have the authority to grant Incentive Stock Options, Non-Qualified Stock
Options, or both types of Stock Options and which may be granted alone or in
addition to other awards granted under the Plan. To the extent that any Stock
Option intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option does not so qualify, it
shall constitute a separate Nonqualified Stock Option. An Incentive Stock Option
may be granted only within the ten-year period commencing from the Effective
Date and may only be exercised within ten years of the date of grant (or five
years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an optionee ("10%
Stockholder") who, at the time of grant, owns Stock possessing more than 10% of
the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company.

      6.2 Terms and Conditions. Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be
subject to the following terms and conditions:

            (a) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Stock
purchasable under a Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee at the
time of grant and may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the
Stock as defined above; provided, however, that the exercise price of an
Incentive Stock Option granted to a 10% Stockholder shall not be less than 110%
of the Fair Market Value of the Stock.

            (b) Option Term. Subject to the limitations in Section 6.1, above,
the term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee.

            (c) Exercisability. Stock Options shall be exercisable at such time
or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the
Committee and as set forth in Section 9, below. If the Committee provides, in
its discretion, that any Stock Option is exercisable only in installments, i.e.,
that it vests over time, the Committee may waive such installment exercise
provisions at any time at or after the time of grant in whole or in part, based
upon such factors as the Committee shall determine.

            (d) Method of Exercise. Subject to whatever installment, exercise
and waiting period provisions are applicable in a particular case, Stock Options
may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the term of the Option,
by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of
shares of Stock to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in
full of the purchase price, which shall be in cash or, unless otherwise provided
in the Agreement, in shares of Stock (including Restricted Stock and other
contingent awards under this Plan) or, partly in cash and partly in such Stock,
or such other means which the Committee determines are consistent with the
Plan's purpose and applicable law. Cash payments shall be made by wire transfer,
certified or bank check or personal check, in each case payable to the order of
the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to
deliver certificates for shares of Stock with respect to which an Option is
exercised until the Company has confirmed the receipt of good and available
funds in payment of the purchase price thereof. Payments in the form of Stock
shall be valued at the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date prior
to the date of exercise. Such payments shall be made by delivery of stock
certificates in negotiable form which are effective to transfer good and valid
title thereto to the Company, free of any liens or encumbrances. A Holder shall
have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares

                                  Page 6 of 12
<PAGE>   7
 subject to the Option until such shares shall be transferred to the Holder upon
the exercise of the Option.

            (e) Transferability. Except as may be set forth in the Agreement, no
Stock Option shall be transferable by the Holder other than by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution, and all Stock Options shall be exercisable,
during the Holder's lifetime, only by the Holder.

            (f) Termination by Reason of Death. If a Holder's employment by the
Company or a Subsidiary terminates by reason of death, any Stock Option held by
such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant
and set forth in the Agreement, shall be fully vested and may thereafter be
exercised by the legal representative of the estate or by the legatee of the
Holder under the will of the Holder, for a period of one year (or such other
greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify at grant) from the date of
such death or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option,
whichever period is the shorter.

            (g) Termination by Reason of Disability. If a Holder's employment by
the Company or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of Disability, any Stock
Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the
time of grant and set forth in the Agreement, shall be fully vested and may
thereafter be exercised by the Holder for a period of one year (or such other
greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify at the time of the grant)
from the date of such termination of employment or until the expiration of the
stated term of such Stock Option, whichever period is the shorter.

            (h) Other Termination. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.3,
below, and unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant and
set forth in the Agreement, if a Holder is an employee of the Company or a
Subsidiary at the time of grant and if such Holder's employment by the Company
or any Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than death or Disability, the
Stock Option shall thereupon automatically terminate, except that if the
Holder's employment is terminated by the Company or a Subsidiary without cause
or due to Normal Retirement, then the portion of such Stock Option which has
vested on the date of termination of employment may be exercised for the lesser
of three months after termination of employment or the balance of such Stock
Option's term.

            (i) Additional Incentive Stock Option Limitation. In the case of an
Incentive Stock Option, the aggregate Fair Market Value of Stock (determined at
the time of grant of the Option) with respect to which Incentive Stock Options
become exercisable by a Holder during any calendar year (under all such plans of
the Company and its Parent Subsidiary) shall not exceed $100,000. Any Incentive
Stock Options granted in excess of this limitation shall not be void but shall
be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options.

            (j) Buyout and Settlement Provisions. The Committee may at any time,
in its sole discretion, offer to buy out a Stock Option previously granted,
based upon such terms and conditions as the Committee shall establish and
communicate to the Holder at the time that such

                                  Page 7 of 12
<PAGE>   8
offer is made.

            (k) Stock Option Agreement. Each grant of a Stock Option shall be
confirmed by, and shall be subject to the terms of, the Agreement executed by
the Company and the Holder.

      6.3 Stock Reload Option. The Committee may also grant to the Holder
(concurrently with the grant of an Incentive Stock Option and at or after the
time of grant in the case of a Nonqualified Stock Option) a Stock Reload Option
up to the amount of shares of Stock held by the Holder for at least six months
and used to pay all or part of the exercise price of an Option and, if any,
withheld by the Company as payment for withholding taxes. Such Stock Reload
Option shall have an exercise price equal to the Fair Market Value as of the
date of the Stock Reload Option grant. Unless the Committee determines
otherwise, a Stock Reload Option may be exercised commencing one year after it
is granted and shall expire on the date of expiration of the Option to which the
Reload Option is related.

SECTION 7.        RESTRICTED STOCK.

      7.1 Grant. Shares of Restricted Stock may be awarded either alone or in
addition to other awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall determine
the eligible persons to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of
Restricted Stock will be awarded, the number of shares to be awarded, the price
(if any) to be paid by the Holder, the time or times within which such awards
may be subject to forfeiture (the "Restricted Period"), the vesting schedule and
rights to acceleration thereof, and all other terms and conditions of the
awards.

      7.2 Terms and Conditions. Each Restricted Stock award shall be subject to
the following terms and conditions:

            (a) Certificates. Restricted Stock, when issued, will be represented
by a stock certificate or certificates registered in the name of the Holder to
whom such Restricted Stock shall have been awarded. During the Restriction
Period, certificates representing the Restricted Stock and any securities
constituting Retained Distributions (as defined below) shall bear a legend to
the effect that ownership of the Restricted Stock (and such Retained
Distributions), and the enjoyment of all rights appurtenant thereto, are subject
to the restrictions, terms and conditions provided in the Plan and the
Agreement. Such certificates shall be deposited by the Holder with the Company,
together with stock powers or other instruments of assignment, each endorsed in
blank, which will permit transfer to the Company of all or any portion of the
Restricted Stock and any securities constituting Retained Distributions that
shall be forfeited or that shall not become vested in accordance with the Plan
and the Agreement.

            (b) Rights of Holder. Restricted Stock shall constitute issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock for all corporate purposes. The Holder will
have the right to vote such Restricted Stock, to receive and retain all regular
cash dividends and other cash equivalent distributions as the Board may in its
sole discretion designate, pay or distribute on such Restricted Stock and to
exercise all other rights, powers and privileges of a holder of Common Stock
with

                                  Page 8 of 12
<PAGE>   9
respect to such Restricted Stock, with the exceptions that (i) the Holder will
not be entitled to delivery of the stock certificate or certificates
representing such Restricted Stock until the Restriction Period shall have
expired and unless all other vesting requirements with respect thereto shall
have been fulfilled; (ii) the Company will retain custody of the stock
certificate or certificates representing the Restricted Stock during the
Restriction Period; (iii) other than regular cash dividends and other cash
equivalent distributions as the Board may in its sole discretion designate, pay
or distribute, the Company will retain custody of all distributions ("Retained
Distributions") made or declared with respect to the Restricted Stock (and such
Retained Distributions will be subject to the same restrictions, terms and
conditions as are applicable to the Restricted Stock) until such time, if ever,
as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such Retained Distributions shall
have been made, paid or declared shall have become vested and with respect to
which the Restriction Period shall have expired; (iv) a breach of any of the
restrictions, terms or conditions contained in this Plan or the Agreement or
otherwise established by the Committee with respect to any Restricted Stock or
Retained Distributions will cause a forfeiture of such Restricted Stock and any
Retained Distributions with respect thereto.

            (c) Vesting; Forfeiture. Upon the expiration of the Restriction
Period with respect to each award of Restricted Stock and the satisfaction of
any other applicable restrictions, terms and conditions (i) all or part of such
Restricted Stock shall become vested in accordance with the terms of the
Agreement, subject to Section 9, below, and (ii) any Retained Distributions with
respect to such Restricted Stock shall become vested to the extent that the
Restricted Stock related thereto shall have become vested, subject to Section 9,
below. Any such Restricted Stock and Retained Distributions that do not vest
shall be forfeited to the Company and the Holder shall not thereafter have any
rights with respect to such Restricted Stock and Retained Distributions that
shall have been so forfeited.

SECTION 8.  OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS.

      8.1 Grant and Exercise. Other Stock-Based Awards may be awarded, subject
to limitations under applicable law, that are denominated or payable in, valued
in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to,
shares of Common Stock, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the
purposes of the Plan, including, without limitation, purchase rights, shares of
Common Stock awarded which are not subject to any restrictions or conditions,
convertible or exchangeable debentures, or other rights convertible into shares
of Common Stock and awards valued by reference to the value of securities of or
the performance of specified Subsidiaries. Other Stock-Based Awards may be
awarded either alone or in addition to or in tandem with any other awards under
this Plan or any other plan of the Company.

      8.2 Eligibility for Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee shall
determine the eligible persons to whom and the time or times at which grants of
such other stock-based awards shall be made, the number of shares of Common
Stock to be awarded pursuant to such awards, and all other terms and conditions
of the awards.

                                  Page 9 of 12
<PAGE>   10
      8.3 Terms and Conditions. Each Other Stock-Based Award shall be subject to
such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee and to Section
9, below.

SECTION 9.  ACCELERATED VESTING AND EXERCISABILITY.

      If (i) any person or entity other than the Company and/or any officer,
director or principal stockholder (i.e., a holder (beneficially or of record) of
more than ten percent of the Company's voting stock) of the Company as of the
Effective Date acquire securities of the Company (in one or more transactions)
having 25% or more of the total voting power of all the Company's securities
then outstanding and (ii) the Board of Directors of the Company does not
authorize or otherwise approve such acquisition, then, the vesting periods of
any and all Options and other awards granted and outstanding under the Plan
shall be accelerated and all such Options and awards will immediately and
entirely vest, and the respective holders thereof will have the immediate right
to purchase and/or receive any and all Stock subject to such Options and awards
on the terms set forth in this Plan and the respective agreements respecting
such Options and awards.

SECTION 10. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION.

      Subject to Section 4.2 (iv) hereof, the Board may at any time, and from
time to time, amend alter, suspend or discontinue any of the provisions of the
Plan, but no amendment, alteration, suspension or discontinuance shall be made
which would impair the rights of a Holder under any Agreement theretofore
entered into hereunder, without the Holder's consent.

SECTION 11. TERM OF PLAN.

      11.1 Effective Date. The Plan shall be effective as of September 18, 1998
("Effective Date"). Any awards granted under the Plan prior to such approval
shall be effective when made (unless otherwise specified by the Committee at the
time of grant), but shall be conditioned upon, and subject to, such approval of
the Plan and no awards shall vest or otherwise become free of restrictions prior
to such approval.

      11.2 Termination Date. Unless terminated by the Board, this Plan shall
continue to remain effective until such time no further awards may be granted
and all awards granted under the Plan are no longer outstanding. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, grants of Incentive Stock Options may only be made during the ten
year period following the Effective Date.

SECTION 12. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

      12.1 Written Agreements. Each award granted under the Plan shall be
confirmed by, and shall be subject to the terms of the Agreement executed by the
Company and the Holder. The Committee may terminate any award made under the
Plan if the Agreement relating thereto is not executed and returned to the
Company within 10 days after the Agreement has been delivered to the Holder for
his or her execution.

      12.2 Unfunded Status of Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an
"unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any
payments not yet made to a Holder by the Company, nothing contained herein shall
give any such Holder any rights that are greater than those of a general
creditor of the Company.

      12.3  Employees.

            (a) Violations of the "Employment, Confidential Information and
Invention Assignment Agreement" With the Company. In the event a Holder's
employment with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated for any reason
whatsoever, and such Holder violates the terms of any Employment,
Confidentiality and/or Invention Assignment Agreement with the Company in the
applicable time periods referenced in such agreements, the Committee, in its
sole discretion, may require such Holder to return to the Company the economic
value of any award which was realized or obtained by such Holder at any time
during the period beginning on that date which is six months prior to the date
of such Holder's termination of employment with the Company.

            (b) No Right of Employment. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any
award hereunder shall be deemed to confer upon any Holder who is an employee of
the Company or any Subsidiary any right to continued employment with the Company
or any Subsidiary, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the
Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any Holder who is an
employee at any time.

      12.4 Investment Representations. The Committee may require each person
acquiring shares of Stock pursuant to a Stock Option or other award under the
Plan to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that the Holder is
acquiring the shares for investment without a view to distribution thereof.

      12.5 Additional Incentive Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan
shall prevent the Board from adopting such other or additional incentive
arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the
granting of Stock Options and the awarding of stock and cash otherwise than
under the Plan; and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or
applicable only in specific cases.

      12.6 Withholding, Taxes. Not later than the date as of which an amount
must first be included in the gross income of the Holder for Federal income tax
purposes with respect to any option or other award under the Plan, the Holder
shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee
regarding the payment of, any Federal, state and local taxes of any kind
required by law to be withheld or paid with respect to such amount. If permitted
by the Committee, tax withholding or payment obligations may be settled with
Common Stock, including Common Stock that is part of the award that gives rise
to the withholding requirement. The obligations of the Company under the Plan
shall be conditioned upon such payment or arrangements and the Company or the
Holder's employer (if not the Company) 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 Holder from the Company or any Subsidiary.

      12.7 Governing Law. The Plan and all awards made and actions taken
thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Arizona (without regard to choice of law provisions).

      12.8 Other Benefit Plans. Any award granted under the Plan shall not be
deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits under any retirement plan
of the Company or any Subsidiary and shall not affect any benefits under any
other benefit plan now or subsequently in effect under which the availability or
amount of benefits is related to the level of compensation (unless required by
specific reference in any such other plan to awards under this Plan).

      12.9 Non-Transferability. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the
Plan or the Agreement, no right or benefit under the Plan may be alienated,
sold, assigned, hypothecated, pledged, exchanged, transferred, encumbranced or
charged, and any attempt to alienate, sell, assign, hypothecate, pledge,
exchange, transfer, encumber or charge the same shall be void.

      12.10 Applicable Laws. The obligations of the Company with respect to all
Stock Options and awards under the Plan shall be subject to (i) all applicable
laws, rules and regulations and such approvals by any governmental agencies as
may be required, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and (ii) the rules and regulations of any securities exchange on which
the Stock may be listed.

      12.11 Conflicts. If any of the terms or provisions of the Plan or an
Agreement (with respect to Incentive Stock Options) conflict with the
requirements of Section 422 of the Code, then such terms or provisions shall be
deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with the requirements of said
Section 422 of the Code. Additionally, if this Plan or any Agreement does not
contain any provision required to be included herein under Section 422 of the
Code, such provision shall be deemed to be incorporated herein and therein with
the same force and effect as if such provision had been set out at length herein
and therein. If any of the terms or provisions of any Agreement conflict with
any terms or provision of the Plan, then such terms or provisions shall be
deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with the requirements of the
Plan. Additionally, if any Agreement does not contain any provision required to
be included therein under the Plan, such provision shall be deemed to be
incorporated therein with the same force and effect as if such provision had
been set out at length therein.

      12.12 Non-Registered Stock. The shares of Stock to be distributed under
this Plan have not been, as of the Effective Date, registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any applicable state or foreign
securities laws and the Company has no obligation to any Holder to register the
Stock or to assist the Holder in obtaining an exemption from the various
registration requirements, or to list the Stock on a national securities
exchange.

                         IX. PARTICIPANTS' ERISA RIGHTS

         9.01 A Participant is entitled to certain rights and protections under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). ERISA provides that
Participants shall be entitled to:

              (a) Examine, without charge, at the Plan Administrator's office,
all Plan documents, and copies of all documents filed by the Plan with U.S.
Dept. of Labor, such as detailed annual reports and Plan descriptions; and

              (b) Obtain copies of all documents and other information directly
relating to the Plan upon written request to the Plan Administrator which may
charge a reasonable amount for the copies.

         9.02 In addition to creating rights for participants in the Plan, ERISA
also imposes responsibilities upon the people who are responsible for the
operation of the Plan.

              (a) The people who operate the Plan, called "fiduciaries" of the
         Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of a
         Participant.

              (b) No one, including Employer, or any person, may discharge a
         Participant or otherwise discriminate against a Participant in any way
         to prevent him or her from obtaining a benefit or exercising his or her
         rights under ERISA.

              (c) If a Participant's claim for a benefit is denied in whole or
         in part, he or she must receive a written explanation of the reason for
         the denial.

              (d) A Participant has the right to have the Plan Administrator
         review and reconsider his or her claim.

         9.03 Under ERISA, there are steps a Participant can take to enforce the
above rights.

              (a) For instance, if a Participant requests materials from the
         Plan and if he or she does not receive them within 30 days, a
         Participant may file suit in federal court. In such a case, the court
         may require the Plan Administrator to provide the materials and pay the
         Participant up to $100 a day until he or she receives the materials,
         unless the materials were not sent to the Participant for reasons
         beyond the control of the Plan Administrator.
<PAGE>   8
              (b) If a Participant has a claim for benefits which is denied or
         ignored, in whole or in part, he or she may file suit in a state or
         federal court.

              (c) If it should happen that the Plan's fiduciaries misuse the
         Plan's money, or if a Participant is discriminated against for
         asserting his or her rights, he or she may seek assistance from the
         U.S. Dept. of Labor, or he or she may file a suit in Federal court. The
         court will decide who should pay court costs and fees. If the
         Participant loses, the court may order him or her to pay these costs
         and fees, for example, if it finds the Participant's claim is
         frivolous.

         9.04 If a Participant has any questions about the Plan, he or she
should contact Employer's Human Resources Department. If a Participant has any
questions about this Article IX or his or her rights under ERISA, he or she
should contact the nearest Area Office of the Pension and Welfare Benefits
Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, listed in the telephone directory as
the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Pension and Welfare Benefits
Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue N.W.,
Washington, D.C. 20210.

                        X. STATUS OF EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS

         The adoption and maintenance of the Plan shall not be deemed (a) to
give to any Eligible Employee the right to be retained in the employ of
Employer; (b) to affect the right of Employer to discipline or discharge any
Eligible Employee at any time; (c) to give Employer the right to require any
Eligible Employee to remain in its employ; or (d) to affect any Eligible
Employee's right to terminate his or her employment at any time.

                               XI. NO PLAN ASSETS

         All benefits under this Plan shall remain for all purposes solely a
general, unpledged, unrestricted asset and right of Employer (without being
restricted to the provision of Plan benefits) and no person other than Employer
shall, by virtue of the Plan's provisions, have any interest in such asset.
Title to and beneficial ownership of any Plan assets shall at all times remain
in Employer and Eligible Employees and Participants shall not have any property
interest whatsoever in any assets of Employer.

             XII. RESPONSIBILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF FIDUCIARIES

         12.01 The Plan Administrator and the Employer's Board of Directors
shall be free from all liability for their acts and conduct in the
administration of the Plan except for acts of willful misconduct; provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not relieve any of them from any
responsibility or liability for any responsibility, obligation, or duty that
they may have pursuant to ERISA.

         12.02 To the extent the Plan Administrator or Employer's Board of
Directors is not insured by any insurance company pursuant to provisions of any
applicable insurance policy, Employer
<PAGE>   9
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Plan Administrator and the Employer's
Board of Directors from any and all claims, losses, damages, expenses and
liabilities (including court costs and attorneys' fees) arising from any act of
commission or omission that may be brought by Employer's employees, Participants
or their beneficiaries or legal representatives, or by any other person,
corporation, entity, government or agency thereof, provided, however, that such
indemnification shall not apply to any such person for such person's acts of
gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with the Plan. For purposes
of this provision the Plan Administrator and Employer's Board of Directors shall
not be deemed covered by insurance if an insurance company asserts any right
against them by virtue of the insurance company's subrogation rights.

                              XIII. APPLICABLE LAW

         The Plan shall be construed, regulated, interpreted, and administered
under and in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona, except to the
extent such laws are preempted by ERISA.

                              XIV. ANTI-ALIENATION

         A Participant's rights to benefits under the Plan are not subject in
any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge,
encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors of a Participant or a
Participant's beneficiary.

                                  XV. HEADINGS

         The section and subsection headings are contained herein for
convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

                             XVI. UNFUNDED BENEFITS

         A Participant's rights to Plan benefits represent rights of only a
general unsecured creditor of Employer. The Plan constitutes a mere promise by
Employer to make benefit payments in the future if, and only if, an Eligible
Employee becomes a Participant. It is the intention of Employer that the Plan
and Trust be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

                                 XVII. PRONOUNS

         When necessary to the meaning hereof, either the masculine or the
neuter pronoun shall be deemed to include the masculine, the feminine, and the
neuter, and the singular shall be deemed to include the plural.

                           XVIII. INVALIDITY PROVISION

         The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision, or any part
thereof, of this Plan shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of
this Plan and this Plan shall be continued in all respects as if such invalid or
unenforceable provision were omitted.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Employer has caused this Plan to be executed this
28th day of September, 1998.
