                         DELTA WOODSIDE INDUSTRIES, INC.
                             2000 STOCK OPTION PLAN
                             ----------------------

1.  PURPOSE.
    --------

     The  purpose  of the Delta Woodside Industries, Inc. 2000 Stock Option Plan
(the  "Plan")  is  to  promote  the  growth  and profitability of Delta Woodside
Industries,  Inc.  (the  "Company")  and  its  subsidiaries  from  time  to time
("Subsidiaries")  by  increasing  the  personal  participation of key and middle
level  executives  in  the continued growth and financial success of the Company
and  the  Subsidiaries,  by enabling the Company and the Subsidiaries to attract
and retain executives of outstanding competence and by providing such executives
with an equity opportunity in the Company. This purpose will be achieved through
the  grant  of options ("Options") to purchase shares of the common stock of the
Company  ("Shares").

2.  ADMINISTRATION.
    ---------------

     The  Plan  shall  be  administered by the Company's Board of Directors (the
"Board");  provided, however, that in its discretion, the Board may delegate its
authority  under the Plan to a committee of the Board (the "Committee") composed
solely  of  two  or  more  "Non-Employee  Directors"  ( as defined in Rule 16b-3
promulgated  under  the  Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934, as amended, or any
applicable  successor  rule  or  regulation  (the  "Exchange  Act")).
     The  Board  (or  Committee,  as  applicable)  shall have complete and final
authority  to:  (i)  interpret all terms and provisions of the Plan; (ii) select
from the group of key and middle level executives eligible to participate in the
Plan  the executives to whom Options will be granted; (iii) subject to the terms
of  the  Plan,  establish  the  terms  and  conditions of each Option, including
without  limitation  the number of Shares subject to the Option, the term of the
Option,  and  any schedule for or conditions of the exercise of the Option; (iv)
prescribe  the  form of instrument(s) evidencing Options granted under the Plan;
(v)  determine  the  time  or  times at which Options will be granted; (vi) make
special  grants  of  Options  as  the  Board  (or  Committee, as applicable) may
determine  to  be appropriate; (vii) determine the method of exercise of Options
granted  under  the  Plan;  (viii)  adopt, amend and rescind general and special
rules  for the Plan's administration; and (ix) make all other determinations and
take  all  other  actions  necessary  or advisable for the administration of the
Plan.
     Unless  the  bylaws  or  a  resolution of the Board provides otherwise, any
action that the Board (or Committee, as applicable) is authorized to take may be
taken  without  a  meeting  if  all  the  member  of the Board (or Committee, as
applicable)  sign  a  written  document  authorizing  such  action.
     The  Board  (or  Committee,  as  applicable)  may  designate selected Board
members  or  certain employees of the Company to assist the Board (or Committee,
as applicable) in the administration of the Plan and may grant authority to such
persons  to  execute  documents,  including  Options, on behalf of the Board (or
Committee,  as  applicable).
     No  member  of  the  Board  shall  be  liable  for  any  action  taken  or
determination  made  in  good  faith  in  connection  with  the  Plan.

<PAGE>
3.  ELIGIBILITY  AND  FACTORS  TO  BE  CONSIDERED  IN  GRANTING  OPTIONS.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

     Key  or  middle level executives, whether or not officers or members of the
Board,  of  the Company and its Subsidiaries who have the greatest impact on the
Company's  long-term  performance shall be eligible to receive Options under the
Plan.  In  determining the key and middle level executives to which Options will
be  granted  and  the  number  of  shares  subject to each Option, the Board (or
Committee,  as  applicable) shall take into account the level and responsibility
of the executive's position, the executive's performance, the assessed potential
of  the  executive  and  such  other  factors  as  the  Board  (or Committee, as
applicable) may deem relevant to the accomplishment of the purposes of the Plan.
Options  may  be  granted  under  the  Plan  only  for reasons connected with an
executive's  employment  with  the  Company  or  a  Subsidiary.
     Directors  of  the  Company or any Subsidiary who are not also employees of
the  Company  or  any of its Subsidiaries are not eligible to participate in the
Plan.

4.  SHARES  SUBJECT  TO  THE  PLAN.
    -------------------------------

     Subject  to  the  provisions  of Section 14, the aggregate number of Shares
with  respect  to  which  Options may be granted under the Plan shall not exceed
1,667,000  Shares.  If  an  Option expires, terminates or is surrendered without
having  been  fully  exercised, any Shares subject to the Option with respect to
which the Option was not exercised shall again be available for purposes of this
Plan. The Board (or Committee, as applicable) shall maintain records showing the
cumulative  total  of  all  Shares  subject  to  outstanding  Options.

5.  DESIGNATION  OF  OPTIONS;  NUMBER  OF  SHARES.
    ----------------------------------------------

     Subject  to  the terms of the Plan, the Board (or Committee, as applicable)
may, in its  sole  discretion,  grant  Options  to  eligible  participants.
     In  granting Options, the Board (or Committee, as applicable) shall clearly
indicate  as  to  each  Option  whether  the Option is an incentive stock option
("ISO")  or  a  non-qualified  stock option ("NQO"). The Board (or Committee, as
applicable)  may  grant  both ISOs and NQOs to the same executive, provided that
the  ISOs  and  NQOs  are  granted  separately.  The  Board  (or  Committee,  as
applicable)  shall  not  designate  an  Option as an ISO unless the terms of the
Option  comply  with  all  of  the  requirements  of Section 422 of the Internal
Revenue  Code  of  1986,  as  amended  (the  "Code").
     Subject  to  Section  4., the Board (or Committee, as applicable) may grant
Options  to  eligible  participants with respect to such number of Shares as the
Board  (or  Committee,  as  applicable),  in its sole discretion, may determine;
provided,  that  no  participant may be awarded Options during any calendar year
with  respect  to  an  aggregate  of  more than 1,250,000 shares of common stock
(subject  to  adjustment  under  Section  14).
     With respect to Options designated as ISOs, the aggregate fair market value
(determined at the Options' respective dates of grant in accordance with Section
422(c)(7)  of  the  Code)  of  the Shares with respect to which such Options are
exercisable  for the first time by a participant during any calendar year (under
all  plans  taken into account pursuant to Section 422(d) of the Code) shall not
exceed  $100,000.

<PAGE>
6.  EXERCISE  PRICE.
    ----------------

     The  price  per  Share  at  which each Option may be exercised shall be the
price determined by the Board (or Committee, as applicable) at the time of grant
based  on  such  criteria  as  may  be  adopted  by  the Board (or Committee, as
applicable) in good faith, but in no event shall the exercise price per share of
an Option be less than the par value of a Share or less than fifty percent (50%)
                                                --
of  the  fair  market  value  of a Share at the time such Option is granted.  In
addition,  (i)  the  exercise price per share for any ISO shall be not less than
the  fair  market  value  of  a  Share  (determined  in  accordance with Section
422(c)(7)  of  the  Code)  at the time such Option is granted; (ii) the exercise
price per share for any ISO shall be not less than 110% of the fair market value
of  a Share (determined in accordance with Section 422(c)(7) of the Code) at the
time  such Option is granted if immediately prior to the grant, the recipient is
a person who beneficially owns (determined in accordance with Section 424 of the
Code)  stock  having  more  than  ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting
                      ----
power  of  all  classes  of  stock  of  the  Company or any parent or subsidiary
corporation  of the Company (determined in accordance with Section 424(d) of the
Code)  (a "10% Owner"); and (iii) the exercise price per share shall be not less
than  the fair market value of a Share at the time the Option is granted for any
grant  that  is  intended  to  qualify as "performance-based compensation" under
Section  162(m)(4)(C)  of  the  Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

7.  TERM.
    -----

     The term of each Option shall be established by the Board (or Committee, as
applicable)  but  shall  not exceed ten (10) years from the date that the Option
vests.  In  addition, no ISO shall have a term exceeding ten (10) years from the
date of grant, and no ISO granted to a participant who is a 10% Owner shall have
a  term  exceeding  five  (5)  years  from  the  date  of  grant.

8.  TIME  OF  GRANT.
    ----------------

     The  date of grant of an Option for all purposes shall be the date on which
the Board (or Committee, as applicable) approves the grant of the Option. Notice
of the grant shall be given to each Option recipient (each a "Grantee") within a
reasonable  time  after  the  date  of  grant.

9.  TRANSFER.
    ---------

     An  Option  shall  not be transferable by the Grantee except by will or the
laws  of  descent and distribution. During the Grantee's lifetime, an Option may
only  be  exercised  by  the  Grantee.

10.  EXERCISE.
     ---------

     Subject to the terms of the Plan, an Option may be exercisable at such time
or  times after the date of grant and upon such conditions and according to such
schedule  as may be determined by the Board (or Committee, as applicable) at the
time of grant. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, in no event may
an  Option  be  exercised  after  the  expiration  of  its  stated  term.

<PAGE>
     Upon  any  Change  of  Control,  all outstanding Options, to the extent not
vested  and/or  exercisable,  shall become immediately vested and exercisable in
their  entirety.  "Change of Control"shall mean the occurrence of any one of the
following: (a) the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other
than  by  way  of  merger  or  consolidation),  in  one  or  a series of related
transactions,  of  all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its
Subsidiaries  taken  as  a whole to any  "person" (within the meaning of Section
13(d)  of  the Exchange Act) other than one or more wholly-owned Subsidiaries of
the  Company;  (b)  the  adoption  of  a  plan  relating  to  the liquidation or
dissolution of the Company; (c) the first day on which a majority of the members
of  the  Board  are  not  Continuing  Directors;  or (d) the consummation of any
transaction  (including  without  limitation  any  merger,  share  exchange  or
consolidation)  the  result  of  which  is that any "person" (as defined above),
other  than an Exempt Person or Exempt Persons, becomes, directly or indirectly,
the  "beneficial  owner" (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange
Act,  except  that  an  entity  or  person  shall  be deemed to have "beneficial
ownership"  of  all  shares  that  any  such  entity  or person has the right to
acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage
of  time)  of  more  than  30%  of  the outstanding common stock of the Company;
provided  that the transactions covered by this clause (d) shall not include the
      --
acquisition  by the Company of its common stock; provided further, however, that
                                                 --------------------------
if  (x)  any  "person"  (as  defined above) becomes, directly or indirectly, the
"beneficial owner" (as defined above) of more than 30% of the outstanding common
stock  of  the  Company solely as a result of acquisition by the Company  of its
common  stock,  (y)  such  "person" thereafter acquires any additional shares of
common  stock  of  the  Company  and (z) immediately after such acquisition such
"person"  is,  directly or indirectly, the "beneficial owner" (as defined above)
of  30%  or  more  of  the  outstanding  common  stock of the Company, then such
additional  acquisition  shall  constitute  a  Change  of  Control.
     "Exempt Person" shall mean (a) the Company, (b) any wholly-owned Subsidiary
of  the Company, (c) any individual who immediately before the transaction is an
executive  officer  of the Company, (d) any employee benefit plan of the Company
or  any  of  its  wholly-owned  Subsidiaries or (e) any entity or person holding
shares  of  common  stock  for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan if such
entity  or  person  is  not  a  beneficiary  of  or  participant  in  such plan.
     "Continuing  Directors" shall mean, as of any date, any member of the Board
who (i) was a member of the Board on the date this Plan was adopted by the Board
or  (ii) was nominated for election or elected to the Board with the approval of
a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of the Board at the time
of  such  nomination  or  election.

11.  METHOD  OF  EXERCISE.
     ---------------------

     An  Option  shall be deemed exercised when (i) the Company receives written
notice  of the holder's decision to exercise the Option; (ii) the holder tenders
to  the  Company  payment  in  full  in  cash (or if the Board (or Committee, as
applicable)  so  determines  at  the  time  of  grant,  in Shares) the aggregate
exercise  price  for  the  Shares  with  respect  to  which  the Option is to be
exercised;  (iii)  the holder tenders to the Company payment in full in cash the
amount of all federal and state withholding or other employment taxes applicable
to  the taxable income, if any, of the holder resulting from the exercise of the
Option;  and (iv) the holder complies with such other reasonable requirements as
the  Board  (or  Committee,  as  applicable)  may  establish.

<PAGE>
     An  Option  may  be exercised for any lesser number of Shares than the full
number for which it could have been exercised. Such a partial exercise shall not
affect  the  right  to exercise the Option from time to time with respect to the
remaining  Shares  subject  to  the  Option.

<PAGE>
12.  CANCELLATION  AND  REPLACEMENT  OF  OPTIONS.
     --------------------------------------------

     The  Board  (or  Committee,  as applicable) may at any time or from time to
time  permit  a  Grantee to voluntarily surrender  any outstanding Options where
such  surrender  is  conditioned upon the granting to the Grantee of new Options
for  such  number  of  Shares  as  the  Board  (or Committee, as applicable) may
determine.  The  Board  (or  Committee,  as applicable) may require a Grantee to
surrender  outstanding  Options  as  a  condition  precedent to the grant of new
Options  to  such  Grantee.
     Subject  to  the terms of the Plan, the Board (or Committee, as applicable)
shall  determine  the  terms  and  conditions  of any new Options, including the
prices  at  and  periods  during  which  they may be exercised, all of which may
differ  from  the  terms and conditions of the Options surrendered. Any such new
Options  shall  be  subject  to the Plan. The grant of new Options in connection
with  the  surrender of outstanding Options shall be considered, for purposes of
the  Plan,  as  the  grant of new Options and not as an alteration, amendment or
modification  of  the  Plan  or  the  Options  surrendered.
     The  Shares  subject  to any Options surrendered shall no longer be charged
against  the  aggregate  Share limit set forth in Section 4.  and shall again be
available  for  grants  of  Options  under  the  Plan.

13.  TERMINATION  OF  OPTIONS.
     -------------------------

     An  Option shall be considered terminated in whole or in part to the extent
that,  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  the  Plan, it can no longer be
exercised  with  respect  to Shares subject to the Option. The Shares subject to
any  Option,  or  portion  thereof,  that  terminates shall no longer be charged
against  the  aggregate  Share  limit set forth in Section 4. and shall again be
available  for  the  grant  of  Options  under  the  Plan.

14.  ADJUSTMENTS  UPON  CHANGES  IN  CAPITALIZATION.
     -----------------------------------------------

     In  the  event of any change in the characteristics of the Shares by reason
of  a  stock  dividend, recapitalization, merger, reorganization, consolidation,
stock  split, reverse stock split or any other similar event, the Shares subject
to  the  Plan  and  the  Shares  subject  to  each  outstanding  Option shall be
correspondingly  increased,  reduced  or  changed,  such that by exercise of any
outstanding  Option,  a  Grantee  will  receive, without change in the aggregate
purchase  price,  securities, as so increased, reduced or changed, comparable to
the  securities the Grantee would have received if the Grantee had exercised the
Option  prior to such event. In the case of an ISO, the foregoing sentence shall
apply in the event of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock,
separation,  reorganization  or liquidation, if the excess of the aggregate fair
market  value  of  the Shares subject to the Option immediately after such event
over  the aggregate exercise price of such Shares is not more than the excess of
the  aggregate fair market value of all Shares subject to the Option immediately
prior  to  such  event  over  the  aggregate  exercise  price  of  such  Shares.
     Adjustments under this Section shall be made by the Board (or Committee, as
applicable),  whose determination as to the nature and extent of any adjustments
shall  be  binding  and  final.

<PAGE>
15.  COMPLIANCE  WITH SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS.
     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     No certificates for Shares shall be executed and delivered upon exercise of
any  Option unless and until the Company is able to take such action, if any, as
is  then  required  to  comply  with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; the
Exchange  Act;  the South Carolina Uniform Securities Act, as amended; any other
applicable  state  securities laws and the requirements of any exchange on which
the  Shares  may  be  listed.
     In  the  case  of the exercise of an Option by a person or estate acquiring
the  right  to  exercise  the  Option  by  bequest of inheritance, the Board (or
Committee, as applicable) may require reasonable evidence as to the ownership of
the Option and may require such consent and releases of taxing authorities as it
may  deem  advisable.

16.  NO  RIGHT  TO  EMPLOYMENT.
     --------------------------

     Neither  the  adoption  of  the  Plan  nor  its operation, nor any document
describing  or referring to the Plan, or any part thereof, shall confer upon any
participant  under  this Plan any right to continue in the employ of the Company
or any Subsidiary, or shall in any way affect the right and power of the Company
or  any  Subsidiary  to  terminate the employment of any participant at any time
with  or  without  cause,  to the same extent as the Company or Subsidiary might
have  done  if  the  Plan  had  not  been  adopted.

17.  NO  RIGHTS  AS  SHAREHOLDER.
     ----------------------------

     No  person,  estate  or other entity shall have any rights as a shareholder
with  respect  to  the  Shares obtained as a result of the exercise of an Option
until  a  certificate  or  certificates  for  the  Shares  have  been  received.

18.  AMENDMENT  AND  TERMINATION.
     ----------------------------

     The  Board may at any time suspend, amend or terminate this Plan. The Board
(or  Committee,  as  applicable)  may  make  such modifications to the terms and
conditions  of any Option as it shall deem advisable. No Option shall be granted
during  any  suspension  or  after  termination of the Plan. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section, no amendment, suspension or termination of
the  Plan  and  no  modification of any Option shall, without the consent of the
holder  of an Option, alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Option
granted  prior to the effective date of the amendment, suspension or termination
of  the  Plan  or  of  the  modification  to  the  Option.
     In  addition to Board approval of an amendment to the Plan, the Board shall
obtain  such consent by the holders of the capital stock of the Company, if any,
as  may  be  required by applicable law, including without limitation Rule 16b-3
promulgated  under  the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934, as amended, Sections
162(m)  and  421  through  424  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code.

<PAGE>
19.  USE  OF  PROCEEDS.
     ------------------

     The  proceeds  received  by the Company from the sale of Shares pursuant to
the  exercise  of  Options  shall  be  used  for  general  corporate purposes as
determined  by  the  Board.
20.  INDEMNIFICATION  OF  BOARD.
     ---------------------------

     In  addition  to  such  other rights of indemnification as they may have as
members  of  the  Board,  the  members  of  the  Board  (and  the  Committee, as
applicable) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be indemnified by the
Company  against  the  reasonable  expenses, including attorneys' fees and legal
costs,  actually  and necessarily incurred in connection with the defense of any
action,  suit  or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which
they  or  any  of  them  may  be  a party by reason of any action or omission in
connection  with the Plan or any Option, and against all amounts paid by them in
settlement  thereof  (provided  such settlement is approved by independent legal
counsel  selected  by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment
in  any  such  action,  suit  or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to
which it has been adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding that such Board or
Committee member is liable for gross negligence or misconduct in the performance
of  such  member's duties; provided that within 60 days after institution of any
such  action,  suit or proceeding the Board or Committee member shall in writing
offer  the  Company the opportunity, at the Company's own expense, to handle and
defend  the  same.

21.  EFFECTIVE  DATE  OF  THE  PLAN.
     -------------------------------

     This  Plan  shall  be  effective  August  24,  2000,  subject to subsequent
approval by the requisite shareholder vote no later than the next annual meeting
of  the  shareholders  of  the  Company.  Any  Options  granted  prior  to  such
shareholder  approval shall also be subject to shareholder approval of the Plan.
If  the  Plan is not approved by the shareholders of the Company, the Plan shall
terminate  and  any  Options  granted  under  the  Plan  shall  expire.

22.  DURATION  OF  THE  PLAN.
     ------------------------

     Unless previously terminated by the Board, this Plan shall terminate at the
close  of  business  on  August 24, 2010, and no Option may be granted under the
Plan  thereafter, but such termination shall not affect any Option granted prior
to  termination  of  the  Plan.

23.  GOVERNING  LAW.
     ---------------

     This  Plan  shall  be governed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with
the  laws  of  South  Carolina  without  regard  to  choice  of  law principles.

1.  EXERCISE.
    ---------

     Subject  to  the terms of the Plan, an Option may be exercised from time to
time  during  the  Term  of  the  Option with respect to all or a portion of the
Shares with respect to which the Option has vested. A partial exercise shall not
affect  the  right  to exercise the Option from time to time with respect to the
remaining  Shares  subject to the Option. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this  Stock Option Agreement or the Plan, in no event may an Option be exercised
after  the  expiration  of  its  stated  term.

2.  METHOD  OF  EXERCISE.
    ---------------------

     An  Option  shall be deemed exercised when (i) the Company receives written
notice  of the holder's decision to exercise the Option; (ii) the holder tenders
to  the  Company payment in full in cash (or, if authorized by this Stock Option
Agreement,  Shares)  the aggregate exercise price for the Shares with respect to
which  the  Option  is  to be exercised; (iii) the holder tenders to the Company
payment in full in cash the amount of all federal and state withholding or other
employment  taxes  applicable  to  the  taxable  income,  if  any, of the holder
resulting  from  the  exercise  of the Option; and (iv) the holder complies with
such  other  reasonable  requirements as the Board (or Committee, as applicable)
may  establish.

3.  ADJUSTMENTS  UPON  CHANGES  IN  CAPITALIZATION.
    -----------------------------------------------

     In  the  event of any change in the characteristics of the Shares by reason
of  a  stock  dividend, recapitalization, merger, reorganization, consolidation,
stock  split, reverse stock split or any other similar event, the Shares subject
to  the  Plan  and  the  Shares  subject  to  each  outstanding  Option shall be
correspondingly  increased,  reduced  or  changed,  such that by exercise of any
outstanding  Option,  a  Grantee  will  receive, without change in the aggregate
purchase  price,  securities, as so increased, reduced or changed, comparable to
the  securities the Grantee would have received if the Grantee had exercised the
Option  prior to such event. In the case of an ISO, the foregoing sentence shall
apply in the event of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock,
separation,  reorganization  or liquidation, if the excess of the aggregate fair
market  value  of  the Shares subject to the Option immediately after such event
over  the aggregate exercise price of such Shares is not more than the excess of
the  aggregate fair market value of all Shares subject to the Option immediately
prior  to  such  event  over  the  aggregate  exercise  price  of  such  Shares.
     Adjustments under this Section shall be made by the Board (or Committee, as
applicable),  whose determination as to the nature and extent of any adjustments
shall  be  binding  and  final.

4.  TRANSFER.
    ---------

     An  Option  shall  not be transferable by the Grantee except by will or the
laws  of  descent and distribution. During the Grantee's lifetime, an Option may
only  be  exercised  by  the  Grantee.

<PAGE>
5.  COMPLIANCE  WITH  SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

     No certificates for Shares shall be executed and delivered upon exercise of
any  Option unless and until the Company is able to take such action, if any, as
is  then  required  to  comply  with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; the
Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934,  as  amended;  the  South  Carolina Uniform
Securities  Act,  as amended; any other applicable state securities laws and the
requirements  of  any  exchange  on  which  the  Shares  may  be  listed.
     In  the  case  of the exercise of an Option by a person or estate acquiring
the  right  to  exercise  the  Option  by  bequest of inheritance, the Board (or
Committee, as applicable) may require reasonable evidence as to the ownership of
the Option and may require such consent and releases of taxing authorities as it
may  deem  advisable.

6.  NO  RIGHT  TO  EMPLOYMENT.
    --------------------------

     Neither  the  adoption  of  the  Plan  nor  its operation, nor any document
describing  or referring to the Plan, or any part thereof, nor this Stock Option
Agreement shall confer upon any participant under the Plan any right to continue
in  the  employ of the Company or any Subsidiary, or shall in any way affect the
right  and power of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of
any  participant  at  any  time with or without cause, to the same extent as the
Company  or  Subsidiary  might  have  done  if  the  Plan  had not been adopted.

7.  NO  RIGHTS  AS  SHAREHOLDER.
    ----------------------------

     No  person,  estate  or other entity shall have any rights as a shareholder
with  respect  to  the  Shares obtained as a result of the exercise of an Option
until  a  certificate  or  certificates  for  the  Shares  have  been  received.

8.  AMENDMENT  AND  TERMINATION.
    ----------------------------

     The  Board  may at any time suspend, amend or terminate the Plan. The Board
(or  Committee,  as  applicable)  may  make  such modifications of the terms and
conditions  of  any  Option  as  it  shall  deem  advisable. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section, no amendment, suspension or termination of
the  Plan  and  no  modification of any Option shall, without the consent of the
holder  of an Option, alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Option
granted  prior to the effective date of the amendment, suspension or termination
of  the  Plan  or  of  the  modification  of  the  Option.
     In  addition to Board approval of an amendment to the Plan, the Board shall
obtain  such consent by the holders of the capital stock of the Company, if any,
as  may  be  required by applicable law, including without limitation Rule 16b-3
promulgated  under  the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934, as amended, Sections
162(m)  and  421  through  424  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code.

Sec.  5.4     FORFEITURE  OF  AN  AWARD  (OR  PORTION  THEREOF)

Incentive  Stock  Award  Agreement  when the Award (or relevant portion thereof)
shall  vest, and (ii) may include such additional circumstances as may be deemed
appropriate  by  the  Board  (or  Committee,  as  applicable).  The  forfeiture
circumstances  may  vary  among the shares covered by an Award.  In the event an
Award  (or  portion  thereof)  shall  be  forfeited pursuant to the terms of the

have  no  further  rights under such Award (or portion thereof) or in the shares
covered  thereby.

Sec.  5.5     VESTING  OF  AN  AWARD  (OR  PORTION  THEREOF)

     (a)     The  Incentive  Stock  Award  Agreement  shall  set  forth  the
circumstances  under  which the Award granted thereby (or portion thereof) shall
vest.  With respect to any Award (or portion of an Award) intended to qualify as
"performance-based  compensation" under Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code and the
regulations promulgated thereunder, (i) these circumstances shall consist of the
achievement of one or more performance-based goals established by the Committee,
and  such performance-based goals shall be based on one of, or a combination of,
the  following  factors,  as  the Committee deems appropriate: total stockholder
return;  revenues, sales, net income, EBIT, EBITDA, stock price, and/or earnings
per share; return on assets, net assets, and/or capital; return on stockholders'
equity;  debt/equity  ratio;  working  capital; quality; the Company's financial
performance  or  the  performance  of  the  Company's  stock  versus peers; cost
reduction;  productivity;  or  economic  value  added;  (ii) the Committee shall
establish  the  performance-related goals in writing no later than 90 days after
the commencement of the period of service to which the Award relates (and in all
events  before  25%  of  the period of service has elapsed); and (iii) the Award
shall  be  made  by  a  Committee,  which  shall  consist  solely of two or more
directors  who are "outside directors" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section  1.162-27(e)(3).  The  vesting  circumstances  may vary among the shares
covered  by  an  Award.

<PAGE>
     (b)     In  the  event an Award (or portion thereof) shall vest pursuant to
the  terms  of the applicable Incentive Stock Award Agreement, the Company shall
issue  and  deliver,  or cause to be issued and delivered, to the Participant or
his  or her legal representative, free from any legend and any other restriction
(other  than  those  required  by  federal or state securities laws or any other
applicable  law),  certificate(s) for the number of shares covered by the vested
portion  of  the  Award,  subject to receipt by the Company of the cash purchase
price  described  in  Section 5.3 above.  In addition, at or about such time the
Company  shall  pay the Participant in cash an amount that will be approximately
sufficient,  after the payment of all applicable federal and state income taxes,
to  pay  the  federal and state income taxes which the Participant will incur by
virtue  of  the  vesting of such Award (or portion thereof). With respect to any
Award  (or  portion  of  an  Award)  intended  to  qualify as "performance-based
compensation"  under  Section  162(m)(4)(C)  of  the  Code  and  the regulations
promulgated  thereunder,  no  issue  of  shares, delivery of any certificates or
payments shall occur, however, unless and until a Committee consisting solely of
two or more directors who are "outside directors" within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation  Section  1.162-27(e)(3) has previously certified in writing that the
relevant  performance-based  goal(s)  have  been  met.

     (c)     No  stock certificate shall be delivered to a Participant or his or
her  legal  representative  unless and until the Participant or his or her legal
representative  shall  have  paid  to the Company in cash the full amount of all
federal  and  state  withholding  or  other  employment  taxes applicable to the
taxable  income of such Participant resulting from the vesting of such Award (or
portion  thereof).

     (d)     (i)  Upon  any  Change  of  Control, all outstanding Awards, to the
extent  not  vested, shall become immediately vested in their entirety.  "Change
of Control" shall mean the occurrence of any one of the following: (a) the sale,
lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or
consolidation),  in  one  or  a  series  of  related  transactions,  of  all  or
substantially  all  of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a
whole  to any "person" (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act)
other  than  one  or  more  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  of  the Company; (b) the
adoption  of  a  plan relating to the liquidation or dissolution of the Company;
(c)  the  first  day  on  which  a  majority of the members of the Board are not
Continuing  Directors;  or  (d)  the  consummation of any transaction (including
without  limitation  any  merger, share exchange or consolidation) the result of
which  is  that  any "person" (as defined above), other than an Exempt Person or
Exempt  Persons,  becomes,  directly  or  indirectly, the "beneficial owner" (as
defined  in  Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that an entity
or  person shall be deemed to have "beneficial ownership" of all shares that any
such  entity  or  person  has  the  right  to  acquire,  whether  such  right is
exercisable  immediately  or only after the passage of time) of more than 30% of
the  outstanding  common  stock  of  the Company; provided that the transactions
                                                  --------
covered  by  this clause (d) shall not include the acquisition by the Company of
its  common  stock;  provided  further,  however,  that  if (x) any "person" (as
                     ----------------------------
defined  above)  becomes,  directly  or  indirectly,  the "beneficial owner" (as
defined  above)  of more than 30% of the outstanding common stock of the Company
solely  as a result of acquisition by the Company  of its common stock, (y) such
"person"  thereafter  acquires  any  additional  shares  of  common stock of the
Company and (z) immediately after such acquisition such "person" is, directly or
indirectly,  the  "beneficial  owner"  (as  defined above) of 30% or more of the
outstanding  common stock of the Company, then such additional acquisition shall
constitute  a  Change  of  Control.

<PAGE>
     (ii)  "Exempt  Person"  shall  mean  (a)  the Company, (b) any wholly-owned
subsidiary  of  the  Company,  (c)  any  individual  who  immediately before the
transaction  is  an  executive  officer of the Company, (d) any employee benefit
plan of the Company or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries or (e) any entity or
person  holding  shares of common stock for or pursuant to the terms of any such
plan  if  such  entity  or person is not a beneficiary of or participant in such
plan.

     (iii)  "Continuing Directors" shall mean, as of any date, any member of the
Board who (i) was a member of the Board on the date this Plan was adopted by the
Board  or  (ii)  was  nominated  for  election  or elected to the Board with the
approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of the Board
at  the  time  of  such  nomination  or  election.

Sec.  5.6     NO  RIGHTS  AS  SHAREHOLDER

     Until  the  issuance  and delivery to the Participant of certificate(s) for
such  shares  by  reason  of  the  vesting  of an Award (or portion thereof) and
payment  of  the applicable cash purchase price, the Participant shall have none
of  the  rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares covered by an Award.

all  of  the  following  conditions:

     (a)     the  admission  of  such  shares to listing on any over-the-counter

shares under any federal or state law or under the rulings or regulations of the
Securities  and  Exchange  Commission or any other governmental regulatory body,
that  the  Board  (or  Committee,  as  applicable)  in its sole discretion deems
necessary  or  advisable;

     (c)     the  obtaining  of any approval or other clearance from any federal
or state governmental agency which the Board (or Committee, as applicable) shall
in  its  sole  discretion  determine  to  be  necessary  or  advisable;  and

     (d)     the  lapse  of such reasonable period of time following the vesting
of an Award (or portion thereof) as the Board (or Committee, as applicable) from
time  to  time  may  establish  for  reasons  of  administrative  convenience.
