KEY EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

          THIS AGREEMENT,  made and entered into as of the ____ day of ________,
____,  by  and  between  Oshkosh  Truck  Corporation,  a  Wisconsin  corporation
(hereinafter  referred  to  as  the  "Company"),  and   ________________________
(hereinafter referred to as the "Executive").

                              W I T N E S S E T H :

          WHEREAS,  the Executive is employed by the Company and/or a subsidiary
of the Company in a key executive  capacity,  and the  Executive's  services are
valuable to the conduct of the business of the Company;

          WHEREAS,   the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company  (the  "Board")
recognizes  that  circumstances  may arise in which a change in  control  of the
Company occurs,  through  acquisition or otherwise,  thereby causing uncertainty
about  the  Executive's  future  employment  with the  Company  and/or  any such
subsidiary without regard to the Executive's  competence or past  contributions,
which  uncertainty may result in the loss of valuable  services of the Executive
to the  detriment of the Company and its  shareholders,  and the Company and the
Executive wish to provide  reasonable  security to the Executive against changes
in the Executive's relationship with the Company in the event of any such change
in control;

          WHEREAS,  the Company and the Executive are desirous that any proposal
for a change in control or  acquisition of the Company will be considered by the
Executive  objectively  and with  reference  only to the best  interests  of the
Company and its shareholders; and

          WHEREAS,  the Executive  will be in a better  position to consider the
Company's best interests if the Executive is afforded  reasonable  security,  as
provided in this Agreement,  against altered conditions of employment that could
result from any such change in control or acquisition.

          NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual
covenants and agreements  hereinafter  set forth,  the parties  hereto  mutually
covenant and agree as follows:

          1.  Definitions.  The  following  terms are used in this  Agreement as

          2.  Termination  or  Cancellation  Prior to the  Effective  Date.  The
Company  and the  Executive  shall  each  retain  the  right  to  terminate  the
employment  of the  Executive at any time prior to the  Effective  Date.  If the
Executive's  employment is terminated  prior to the  Effective  Date,  then this
Agreement  shall be terminated  and cancelled and of no further force or effect,
and any and all rights and obligations of the parties  hereunder shall cease. In
addition,  this Agreement  shall  terminate upon the Executive  ceasing to be an
officer of the Company and its  Affiliates  prior to a Change in Control  unless
the Executive can  reasonably  demonstrate  that such change in status  occurred
under  circumstances  described  in clause  (iii)(B)(1)  or  (iii)(B)(2)  of the
definition of "Effective Date" in Exhibit A.

          3.  Employment Period. If the Executive is employed by the Employer on
the  Effective  Date,  then the Company  will,  or will cause the  Employer  to,
continue  thereafter to employ the Executive  during the  Employment  Period (as
hereinafter  defined),  and the  Executive  will  remain  in the  employ  of the
Employer,  in  accordance  with and subject to the terms and  provisions of this
Agreement.  For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Employment Period" means a
period (i)  commencing  on the  Effective  Date,  and (ii)  ending at 11:59 p.m.
Oshkosh  Time on the  earlier  of the  third  anniversary  of  such  date or the
Executive's Normal Retirement Date.

          4.  Duties.  During the Employment Period, the Executive shall, in the
most  significant  capacities  and  positions  held by the Executive at any time
during  the  180-day  period  preceding  the  Effective  Date or in  such  other
capacities and positions as may be agreed to by the Company and the Executive in
writing, devote the Executive's best efforts and all of the Executive's business
time,  attention and skill to the business and affairs of the Employer,  as such
business and affairs now exist and as they may hereafter be conducted.

          5.  Compensation. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be
compensated as follows:

              (a)  The Executive shall receive, at reasonable intervals (but not
less often than monthly) and in accordance with such standard policies as may be
in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date, an annual base salary in cash
equivalent of not less than twelve times the  Executive's  highest  monthly base
salary for the twelve-month period immediately  preceding the month in which the
Effective  Date  occurs or, if higher,  annual base salary at the rate in effect
immediately  prior to the  Effective  Date  (which  base  salary  shall,  unless
otherwise agreed in writing by the Executive, include the current receipt by the
Executive of any amounts that,  prior to the Effective  Date,  the Executive had
elected to defer,  whether such compensation is deferred under Section 401(k) of
the Code or  otherwise),  subject to upward  adjustment as provided in Section 6
(such salary amount as adjusted  upward from time to time is hereafter  referred
to as the "Annual Base Salary").

              (b)  The Executive shall receive fringe benefits at least equal in
value to those  provided for the Executive at any time during the 180-day period
immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive,
those provided  generally at any time after the Effective Date to any executives
of the Company  and its  Affiliates  of  comparable  status and  position to the
Executive.  The  Executive  shall  be  reimbursed,  at  such  intervals  and  in
accordance with such standard  policies that are most favorable to the Executive
that were in effect at any time during the 180-day period immediately  preceding
the  Effective  Date or, if more  favorable  to the  Executive,  those  provided
generally at any time after the Effective  Date to any executives of the Company
and its Affiliates of comparable  status and position to the Executive,  for any
and all monies  advanced  in  connection  with the  Executive's  employment  for
reasonable  and  necessary  expenses  incurred by the Executive on behalf of the
Company, including travel expenses.

              (c)  The Executive and/or the Executive's family,  as the case may
be, shall be included,  to the extent  eligible  thereunder  (which  eligibility
shall  not be  conditioned  on the  Executive's  salary  grade  or on any  other
requirement  that  excludes  executives  of the  Company and its  Affiliates  of
comparable  status and position to the  Executive  unless such  exclusion was in
effect  for such plan or an  equivalent  plan on the date 180 days  prior to the
Effective Date), in any and all welfare benefit plans,  practices,  policies and
programs  providing benefits for the Company's salaried employees in general or,
if more  favorable to the  Executive,  to any  executives of the Company and its
Affiliates of comparable status and position to the Executive, including but not
limited to group life  insurance,  hospitalization,  medical  and dental  plans;
provided, that, (i) in no event shall the aggregate level of benefits under such
plans,  practices,  policies and programs in which the  Executive is included be
less than the aggregate level of benefits under plans,  practices,  policies and
programs of the type referred to in this Section 5(c) in which the Executive was
participating  at any time during the 180-day period  immediately  preceding the
Effective Date and (ii) in no event shall the aggregate  level of benefits under
such plans, practices, policies and programs be less than the aggregate level of
benefits under plans,  practices,  policies and programs of the type referred to
in this  Section  5(c)  provided  at any time  after the  Effective  Date to any
executive of the Company and its Affiliates of comparable status and position to
the Executive.

              (d)  The Executive shall annually be entitled to not less than the
amount of paid  vacation and not fewer than the number of paid holidays to which
the  Executive  was  entitled  annually at any time  during the  180-day  period
immediately preceding the Effective Date or such greater amount of paid vacation
and number of paid holidays as may be made  available  annually to the Executive
or any other  executive of the Company and its  Affiliates of comparable  status
and position to the Executive at any time after the Effective Date.

              (e)  The  Executive  shall  be  included  in all  plans  providing
additional  benefits to any  executives  of the Company  and its  Affiliates  of
comparable  status and position to the  Executive,  including but not limited to
deferred  compensation,  split-dollar life insurance,  retirement,  supplemental
retirement,  stock  option,  stock  appreciation,  stock  bonus and  similar  or
comparable plans;  provided,  that, (i) in no event shall the aggregate level of
benefits  under such plans be less than the  aggregate  level of benefits  under
plans of the type  referred to in this

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

Section 5(e) in which the  Executive  was  participating  at any time during the
180-day period immediately  preceding the Effective Date; (ii) in no event shall
the  aggregate  level of  benefits  under such plans be less than the  aggregate
level of benefits  under  plans of the type  referred  to in this  Section  5(c)
provided at any time after the Effective  Date to the Executive or any executive
of the Company  and its  Affiliates  of  comparable  status and  position to the
Executive;  and (iii) the Company's obligation to include the Executive in bonus
or incentive compensation plans shall be determined by Section 5(f).

              (f)  To assure that the Executive will have an opportunity to earn
incentive compensation after the Effective Date, the Executive shall be included
in a bonus plan of the Company that shall satisfy the standards  described below
(the "Bonus  Plan").  Bonuses under the Bonus Plan shall be payable with respect
to achieving such financial or other goals reasonably related to the business of
the  Company,  including  the  Employer,  as the Company  shall  establish  (the
"Goals"),  all of  which  Goals  shall  be  attainable,  prior to the end of the
Employment  Period,  with  approximately  the same degree of  probability as the
goals under the Company's  bonus plan or plans in the form most favorable to the
Executive  that was in effect at any time during the 180-day period prior to the
Effective Date (the "Existing  Plan") and in view of the Company's  existing and
projected  financial  and business  circumstances  applicable  at the time.  The
amount of the bonus (the "Bonus  Amount") that the Executive is eligible to earn
under the Bonus Plan shall be no less than the amount of the Executive's highest
maximum  potential  award under the Existing Plan at any time during the 180-day
period prior to the Effective Date or, if higher,  any maximum  potential  award
under the Bonus Plan or any other bonus or incentive compensation plan in effect
after the  Effective  Date for the Executive or for any executive of the Company
and its  Affiliates  of comparable  status and position to the  Executive  (such
bonus amount herein  referred to as the "Maximum  Bonus"),  and if the Goals are
not achieved (and, therefore, the entire Maximum Bonus is not payable), then the
Bonus Plan shall provide for a payment of a Bonus Amount not less than a portion
of the Maximum Bonus  reasonably  related to that portion of the Goals that were
achieved.  Payment of the Bonus  Amount (i) shall be in cash,  unless  otherwise
agreed by the  Executive,  and (ii) shall not be  affected  by any  circumstance
occurring subsequent to the end of the Employment Period,  including termination
of the Executive's employment.

          6.  Annual Compensation Adjustments. During the Employment Period, the
Board of Directors of the Company (or an  appropriate  committee  thereof)  will
consider and appraise, at least annually,  the contributions of the Executive to
the  Company,  and in  accordance  with  the  Company's  practice  prior  to the
Effective Date, due  consideration  shall be given,  at least  annually,  to the
upward  adjustment of the Executive's  Annual Base Salary (i) commensurate  with
increases  generally given to other executives of the Company and its Affiliates
of comparable status and position to the Executive, and (ii) as the scope of the
Company's operations or the Executive's duties expand.

          7.  Termination During Employment Period.

              (a)  Right to Terminate.  During the  Employment  Period,  (i) the
Company shall be entitled to terminate the Executive's employment (A) for Cause,
(B) by reason of the

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

Executive's  disability pursuant to Section 11, or (C) for any other reason, and
(ii) the Executive shall be entitled to terminate the Executive's employment for
any reason. Any such termination shall be subject to the procedures set forth in
Section 12 and shall be  subject to any  consequences  of such  termination  set
forth in this Agreement.  Any termination of the Executive's  employment  during
the  Employment  Period by the  Employer  shall be deemed a  termination  by the
Company for purposes of this Agreement.

              (b)  Termination  for Cause or Without Good Reason.  If there is a
Covered Termination for Cause or due to the Executive's  voluntarily terminating
the Executive's  employment other than for Good Reason, then the Executive shall
be entitled to receive only Accrued Benefits.

              (c)  Termination Giving Rise to a Termination Payment. If there is
a Covered  Termination by the Executive for Good Reason, or by the Company other
than by reason of (i) death,  (ii)  disability  pursuant to Section 11, or (iii)
Cause,  then the Executive  shall be entitled to receive,  and the Company shall
promptly pay,  Accrued  Benefits and, in lieu of further base salary for periods
following the Termination  Date, as liquidated  damages and severance pay and in
consideration  of the covenant of the Executive set forth in Section 13(a),  the
Termination Payment pursuant to Section 8(a).

          8.  Payments Upon Termination.

              (a)  Termination Payment.

                   (i)   For  purposes  of   this  Agreement,  the  "Termination
     Payment"  shall  be  an  amount  equal  to  the  Annual  Cash  Compensation
     multiplied by the number of years or fractional  portion thereof  remaining
     in the Employment Period determined as of the Termination Date, except that
     the  Termination  Payment  shall not be less than the amount of Annual Cash
     Compensation.  The  Termination  Payment  shall be paid to the Executive in
     cash  equivalent  not later than ten  business  days after the  Termination
     Date.  The  Executive  shall not be required to mitigate  the amount of the
     Termination  Payment by securing  other  employment or otherwise,  nor will
     such  Termination  Payment be reduced by reason of the  Executive  securing
     other employment or for any other reason. The Termination  Payment shall be
     in lieu of any other severance  payments to which the Executive is entitled
     under the  severance  policies  and  practices  of the  Company  and/or any
     subsidiary of the Company.

                   (ii)  Notwithstanding  any other provision of this Agreement,
     if any portion of the  Termination  Payment or any other payment under this
     Agreement,  or under any other agreement with or plan of the Company or the
     Employer, including, without limitation, the Oshkosh Truck Corporation 1990
     Incentive  Stock  Plan (the  "Incentive  Stock  Plan") or any stock  option
     agreement  (the  "Stock  Option  Agreements")  between  the Company and the
     Executive  entered  into  pursuant  to the  Incentive  Stock  Plan  (in the
     aggregate  "Total   Payments"),   would  constitute  an  "excess  parachute
     payment,"  then the Company shall pay the  Executive an  additional  amount
     (the "Gross-Up Payment") such that the net amount retained by the Executive
     after

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

     deduction  of any  excise tax  imposed by Section  4999 of the Code (or any
     successor  provision),  and any interest charges or penalties in respect of
     the  imposition  of such  excise tax (but not any  federal,  state or local
     income tax, or  employment  tax) on the Total  Payments,  and any  federal,
     state or local  income  tax,  or  employment  tax,  and excise tax upon the
     payment  provided for by this Section  8(a)(ii) shall be equal to the Total
     Payments.  Any  provisions of the Incentive  Stock Plan or the Stock Option
     Agreements  that  provide  for a reduction  in  payments  to the  Executive
     relating  to  acceleration  of vesting of stock  options  upon a "Change of
     Control"  (as such term is defined  in the  Incentive  Stock  Plan) if such
     payments  would  result in the payment by the  Executive  of any excise tax
     provided for in Section 280G and Section 4999 of the Code are null and void
     and of no  further  force and effect as they  apply to the  Executive.  For
     purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up  Payment,  the Executive
     shall be deemed  to pay  federal  income  tax and  employment  taxes at the
     highest  marginal  rate of federal  income and  employment  taxation in the
     calendar  year in which the  Gross-Up  Payment  is to be made and state and
     local  income taxes at the highest  marginal  rate of taxation in the state
     and  locality of the  Executive's  domicile  for income tax purposes on the
     date the Gross-Up Payment is made, net of the maximum  reduction in federal
     income  taxes that may be  obtained  from the  deduction  of such state and
     local taxes.

                   (iii) For  purposes  of this  Agreement,  the  terms  "excess
     parachute  payment"  and  "parachute  payments"  shall  have  the  meanings
     assigned to them in Section 280G of the Code (or any successor  provision),
     and such "parachute payments" shall be valued as provided therein.  Present
     value for purposes of this Agreement shall be calculated in accordance with
     Section  1274(b)(2)  of the Code  (or any  successor  provision).  Promptly
     following a Covered  Termination  or notice by the Company to the Executive
     of its belief  that there is a payment or benefit  due the  Executive  that
     will result in an excess  parachute  payment as defined in Section  280G of
     the Code (or any successor  provision),  the Executive and the Company,  at
     the  Company's  expense,  shall  obtain  the  opinion  (which  need  not be
     unqualified)  of  nationally  recognized  tax counsel  (the  "National  Tax
     Counsel") selected by the Company's  independent auditors and acceptable to
     the Executive in the Executive's sole discretion,  which opinion sets forth
     (A) the amount of the Base Period Income,  (B) the amount and present value
     of Total Payments, (C) the amount and present value of any excess parachute
     payments  and (D)  the  amount  of any  Gross-Up  Payment.  As used in this
     Section  8(a)(iii),  the term "Base Period Income" means an amount equal to
     the Executive's "annualized includible compensation for the base period" as
     defined in Section 280G(d)(1) of the Code (or any successor provision). For
     purposes of such opinion, the value of any noncash benefits or any deferred
     payment  or  benefit  shall  be  determined  by the  Company's  independent
     auditors in accordance  with the principles of Sections  280G(d)(3) and (4)
     of the Code (or any successor  provisions),  which  determination  shall be
     evidenced in a certificate  of such  auditors  addressed to the Company and
     the Executive. The opinion of the National Tax Counsel shall be dated as of
     the  Termination  Date and  addressed to the Company and the  Executive and
     shall be binding  upon the Company and the  Executive.  If the National Tax
     Counsel  so  requests  in  connection  with the  opinion  required  by this

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

     Section,  the  Executive  and the Company  shall  obtain,  at the Company's
     expense, and the National Tax Counsel may rely on in providing the opinion,
     the advice of a firm of recognized executive compensation consultants as to
     the  reasonableness  of any  item of  compensation  to be  received  by the
     Executive.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  the provisions of this Section
     8(a), including the calculations, notices and opinions provided for herein,
     shall be based  upon the  conclusive  presumption  that the  following  are
     reasonable: (1) the compensation and benefits provided for in Section 5 and
     (2) any  other  compensation,  including  but not  limited  to the  Accrued
     Benefits, earned prior to the Termination Date by the Executive pursuant to
     the Company's  compensation  programs if such payments would have been made
     in the future in any  event,  even  though  the  timing of such  payment is
     triggered  by the Change in Control or the  Termination  Date.  Within five
     days after the  National Tax  Counsel's  opinion is received by the Company
     and  the  Executive,  the  Company  shall  pay (or  cause  to be  paid)  or
     distribute  (or  cause  to be  distributed)  to or for the  benefit  of the
     Executive such amounts as are then due to Executive under this Agreement.

                   (iv)  In the  event that,  upon  any  audit  by the  Internal
     Revenue  Service,  or by a state or local  taxing  authority,  of the Total
     Payments or Gross-Up Payment, a change is finally determined to be required
     in the amount of taxes paid by the Executive, appropriate adjustments shall
     be made under this  Agreement  such that the net amount  that is payable to
     the Executive  after taking into account the  provisions of Section 4999 of
     the Code shall  reflect  the intent of the  parties  as  expressed  in this
     Section 8(a), in the manner determined by the National Tax Counsel.

                   (v)   The Company  will  bear all costs  associated  with the
     National Tax Counsel and will  indemnify and hold harmless the National Tax
     Counsel of and from any and all claims,  damages,  and  expenses  resulting
     from or relating to the National Tax Counsel's  determinations  pursuant to
     this Section 8(a),  except for claims,  damages or expenses  resulting from
     the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such firm.

              (b)  Additional Benefits.  If there  is  a Covered Termination and
the Executive is entitled to Accrued Benefits and the Termination Payment,  then
the Executive shall be entitled to the following additional benefits:

                   (i)   The Executive will be entitled  to pension  benefits in
     addition to the most favorable  benefits  provided for the Executive  under
     any  version  of  the  Oshkosh  Truck  Corporation  Salaried  and  Clerical
     Employees Retirement Plan and any supplemental executive retirement plan of
     the Employer  providing  benefits for the Executive  (or any  successors to
     such plans) in effect at any time during the  180-day  period  prior to the
     Effective Date (the "Retirement  Plans").  The amount of additional pension
     benefits will be equal to the  difference  between the amount the Executive
     (or in the event of the Executive's death, the Executive's surviving spouse
     or other beneficiary) would be actually entitled to receive upon retirement
     under the terms and conditions of the  Retirement  Plans and the amount the
     Executive  (or such  surviving  spouse  or  beneficiary)  would  have  been
     entitled  to receive  under such terms and

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

     conditions if the Executive's  benefits under the Retirement Plans had been
     fully vested on the  Termination  Date and the  Executive  had continued to
     work until the earlier of the  Executive's  65th birthday or the end of the
     Employment  Period at a salary  rate equal to the  Executive's  Annual Base
     Salary;  provided,  however,  that in no event will the  assumed  period of
     continued  employment  extend beyond the date on which the Executive elects
     to begin receiving the additional pension benefits.  The Executive shall be
     entitled to elect to receive the Executive's additional pension benefits in
     any form (e.g.  joint and survivor)  that would have been  available to ---
     the Executive  under the terms and conditions of the  Retirement  Plans and
     (subject  to  reduction,  if any,  under such  terms) at any time after the
     Executive has attained the age at which early  retirement is permitted.  In
     addition,  if the Executive  starts to receive the  Executive's  additional
     pension  benefits  before  the  earliest  date on which  the  Executive  is
     eligible for unreduced  Social Security  benefits,  then the Executive will
     receive an amount equal to the difference between the Executive's estimated
     unreduced  Social  Security  benefit  and the  actual  benefit to which the
     Executive  is  entitled  until  the  Executive  attains  the age  when  the
     Executive is eligible for unreduced benefits.

                   (ii)  Until the  earlier of  the end of the Employment Period
     or such time as the Executive has obtained new employment and is covered by
     benefits that in the aggregate are at least equal in value to the following
     benefits, the Executive shall continue to be covered, at the expense of the
     Company, by the most favorable life insurance, hospitalization, medical and
     dental  coverage and other welfare  benefits  provided to the Executive and
     the Executive's family during the 180-day period immediately  preceding the
     Effective  Date or at any time  thereafter  or,  if more  favorable  to the
     Executive, coverage as was required hereunder with respect to the Executive
     immediately prior to the date Notice of Termination is given.

                   (iii) The  Executive  shall  receive,  at the  expense of the
     Company,  outplacement  services,  on an individualized basis at a level of
     service  commensurate  with the  Executive's  most  senior  status with the
     Company  during the  180-day  period  prior to the  Effective  Date (or, if
     higher,  at any time after the  Effective  Date),  provided by a nationally
     recognized  executive  placement  firm  selected  by the  Company  with the
     consent of the Executive,  which consent will not be unreasonably withheld;
     provided that the cost to the Company of such services shall not exceed 15%
     of the Executive's Annual Base Salary.

                   (iv)  The Company  shall bear  up to $10,000 in the aggregate
     of fees and expenses of  consultants  and/or legal or  accounting  advisors
     (other than the National Tax  Counsel)  engaged by the  Executive to advise
     the Executive as to matters relating to the computation of benefits due and
     payable under this Section 8.

              (c)  Rabbi  Trust.  Prior to or  simultaneously  with a Change  of
Control over which the Company has control or within three  business days of any
other Change of Control,  the Company  shall  establish an  irrevocable  grantor
trust (also known as a "rabbi trust") for the benefit of the Executive and other
executives of the Company who are parties to agreements

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

with the Company  similar to this  Agreement for the sole purpose of (i) holding
assets equal in value to the present value at any time after a Change of Control
of the maximum  amount of benefits to which the Executive may be entitled  under
Section 8(a) and Section 8(b) and to which such other executives may be entitled
under similar  provisions of their respective  agreements and (ii)  distributing
such assets as their  payment  becomes due.  Prior to or  simultaneously  with a
Change of Control  over which the Company has control or within  three  business
days of any other Change of Control, the Company shall fund such trust with cash
or marketable  securities  having the value described in clause (i). The Company
shall  reasonably  calculate the value described in clause (i) assuming that the
date on which such calculation is made is the Termination Date applicable to the
Executive and the corresponding date applicable to such other executives.

          9.  Death.

              (a)  Except as provided in Section 9(b), in the event of a Covered
Termination due to the Executive's  death,  the  Executive's  estate,  heirs and
beneficiaries  shall receive all the Executive's  Accrued  Benefits  through the
Termination Date.

              (b)  If the Executive dies after a Notice of  Termination is given
(i)  by the  Company  or  (ii)  by the  Executive  for  Good  Reason,  then  the
Executive's  estate,  heirs and beneficiaries  shall be entitled to the benefits
described in Section 9(a) and,  subject to the provisions of this Agreement,  to
such Termination Payment to which the Executive would have been entitled had the
Executive  lived.  In such  event,  the  Termination  Date shall be thirty  days
following the giving of the Notice of Termination, subject to extension pursuant
to the definition of "Termination Date" in Exhibit A.

          10. Retirement.  If, during  the Employment  Period, the Executive and
the Company shall execute an agreement providing for the early retirement of the
Executive from the Company,  or the Executive  shall  otherwise give notice that
the Executive is voluntarily choosing to retire early from the Company, then the
Executive shall receive Accrued Benefits through the Termination Date; provided,
that if the  Executive's  employment  is  terminated  by the  Executive for Good
Reason or by the Company other than by reason of death,  disability or Cause and
the Executive also, in connection with such termination,  elects voluntary early
retirement,  then the Executive  shall also be entitled to receive a Termination
Payment pursuant to Section 8(a).

          11. Termination for Disability. If, during the Employment Period, as a
result of the Executive's disability due to physical or mental illness or injury
(regardless  of whether such illness or injury is  job-related),  the  Executive
shall have been  absent from the  Executive's  duties  hereunder  on a full-time
basis for a period of six  consecutive  months and, within thirty days after the
Company  notifies the  Executive  in writing  that it intends to  terminate  the
Executive's  employment  (which  notice  shall  not  constitute  the  Notice  of
Termination  contemplated  below),  the Executive shall not have returned to the
performance of the Executive's  duties hereunder on a full-time basis,  then the
Company may terminate the Executive's  employment for purposes of this Agreement
pursuant to a Notice of Termination.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

If the  Executive's  employment  is  terminated  on account  of the  Executive's
disability in accordance  with this  Section,  then the Executive  shall receive
Accrued  Benefits in accordance  with Section 8(a) and shall remain eligible for
all  benefits  provided by any long term  disability  programs of the Company in
effect at the time the Company  sends  notice to the  Executive of its intent to
terminate pursuant to this Section.

          12. Termination Notice and Procedure.

              (a)  Any termination  of the  Executive's  employment  during  the
Employment  Period by the Company or the Executive  (other than a termination of
the Executive's  employment  referenced in the second sentence of the definition
of "Effective  Date" in Exhibit A) shall be  communicated  by written  Notice of
Termination to the Executive, if such Notice is given by the Company, and to the
Company,  if such Notice is given by the Executive,  all in accordance  with the
following procedures and those set forth in Section 22:

                   (i)   If such termination is for  disability,  Cause  or Good
     Reason,  then the Notice of Termination shall indicate in reasonable detail
     the  facts  and   circumstances   alleged  to  provide  a  basis  for  such
     termination.

                   (ii)  Any Notice of  Termination  by the  Company  shall have
     been  approved,  prior  to  the  giving  thereof  to  the  Executive,  by a
     resolution  duly adopted by a majority of the  directors of the Company (or
     any successor  corporation) then in office, a copy of which shall accompany
     the Notice.

                   (iii) If  the  Notice  is  given  by the  Executive  for Good
     Reason,  then the Executive may cease  performing  the  Executive's  duties
     hereunder  on or after  the date 15 days  after the  delivery  of Notice of
     Termination (unless the Notice of Termination is based upon clause (vii) of
     the  definition  of "Good Reason" in Exhibit A, in which case the Executive
     may cease  performing his duties at the time the Executive's  employment is
     terminated)  and shall in any event  cease  employment  on the  Termination
     Date,  if any,  arising from the delivery of such Notice.  If the Notice is
     given  by  the  Company,  then  the  Executive  may  cease  performing  the
     Executive's  duties  hereunder  on the date of  receipt  of the  Notice  of
     Termination, subject to the Executive's rights hereunder.

                   (iv)  The  recipient  of  any  Notice  of  Termination  shall
     personally  deliver or mail in accordance with Section 22 written notice of
     any dispute relating to such Notice of Termination to the party giving such
     Notice within fifteen days after receipt  thereof.  After the expiration of
     such fifteen days, the contents of the Notice of  Termination  shall become
     final and not subject to dispute.

Notwithstanding the foregoing,  (A) if the Executive  terminates the Executive's
employment  after a Change in Control  without  complying  with this Section 12,
then the Executive will be deemed to have voluntarily terminated the Executive's
employment  other than for Good  Reason and deemed to have  delivered  a written
Notice  of  Termination  to that  effect to the  Company  as of the date of such
termination  and (B) if the Company or the Employer  terminates the  Executive's
employment  after a Change in Control  without  complying  with this

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

Section 12, then the Company will be deemed to have  terminated the  Executive's
employment  other than by reason of death,  disability  or Cause and the Company
will be deemed to have  delivered a written Notice of Termination to that effect
to the  Executive  as of the  date  of  such  termination.  Under  circumstances
described in clause (B) above, the Executive may, but shall not be obligated to,
also deliver a Notice of  Termination  based upon clause (vii) of the definition
of "Good  Reason" in  Exhibit A for the  purpose of  subjecting  such  Notice to
Section 12(a)(iv).

              (b)  If a Change in Control occurs and the Executive's  employment
with  the  Employer  terminates  (whether  by  the  Company,  the  Executive  or
otherwise)  within 180 days prior to the Change in Control,  then the  Executive
may assert that such  termination is a Covered  Termination by sending a written
Notice of Termination to the Company at any time prior to the first  anniversary
of the Change in Control in  accordance  with the  procedures  set forth in this
Section 12(b) and those set forth in Section 22. If the  Executive  asserts that
the Executive terminated the Executive's  employment for Good Reason or that the
Company  terminated  the  Executive's  employment  other than for  disability or
Cause,  then the Notice of Termination  shall indicate in reasonable  detail the
facts and  circumstances  alleged  to provide a basis for such  assertions.  The
Company shall  personally  deliver or mail in accordance with Section 22 written
notice of any dispute  relating to such Notice of  Termination  to the Executive
within 15 days after receipt thereof.  After the expiration of such 15 days, the
contents  of the Notice of  Termination  shall  become  final and not subject to
dispute.

          13. Further Obligations of the Executive.

              (a)  Competition.  The Executive  agrees that, in the event of any
Covered  Termination  where the Executive is entitled to (and receives)  Accrued
Benefits and the Termination  Payment,  the Executive shall not, for a period of
18 months after the Termination Date,  without the prior written approval of the
Company's Board of Directors, engage in any Competitive Activity.

              (b)  Confidentiality.  During the  Executive's  employment  by the
Employer and for a period of 18 months after the Termination Date, the Executive
will keep  confidential and protect all Confidential  Information known to or in
the possession of the Executive,  will not disclose any Confidential Information
to any other person and will not use any  Confidential  Information,  except for
use or disclosure of Confidential  Information for the exclusive  benefit of the
Company as it may direct or as necessary to fulfill the  Executive's  continuing
duties as an employee of the  Employer  and except to the extent  authorized  in
writing by the Board of  Directors  of the  Company or  required by any court or
administrative  agency.  This Section 13(b) shall not, however,  be construed to
prohibit  competition  by  the  Executive  for a  longer  time  or in a  broader
territory than that specified in Section 13(a).

              (c)  Trade Secrets. In addition to the obligations that applicable
law imposes on the Executive in respect of Trade Secrets, during the Executive's
employment by the Employer and thereafter in respect of information  for so long
as it remains a Trade Secret,  the Executive will keep  confidential and protect
all Trade  Secrets  known to or in the  possession  of

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

the Executive,  will not disclose any Trade Secrets to any other person and will
not use any Trade Secrets, except for use or disclosure of Trade Secrets for the
exclusive benefit of the Company as it may direct or as necessary to fulfill the
Executive's  continuing  duties as an employee of the Employer and except to the
extent  authorized  in  writing  by the Board of  Directors  of the  Company  or
required by any court or administrative agency.

              (d)  Return of Property.  All memoranda, notes,  records,  papers,
tapes,  disks,  programs or other documents or forms of documents and all copies
thereof  relating  to the  operations  or  business of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries  that contain  Confidential  Information or Trade Secrets,  some of
which may be prepared by the Executive,  and all objects associated therewith in
any way  obtained by him shall be the  property of the  Company.  The  Executive
shall not, except for the use of the Company or any of its subsidiaries,  use or
duplicate any such  documents or objects,  nor remove them from  facilities  and
premises of the  Company or any  subsidiary,  at any time.  The  Executive  will
deliver to the Company all of the aforementioned  documents and objects, if any,
that may be in his  possession at any time at the request of the Company  during
the Executive's employment and in any event upon termination of employment.  The
Executive agrees to attend an exit interview upon such termination for purposes,
among others, of determining the Executive's compliance with this Section 13(d).

          14. Expenses and Interest. If, after the Effective Date, (i) a dispute
arises with  respect to the  enforcement  of the  Executive's  rights under this
Agreement  or (ii) any  legal or  arbitration  proceeding  shall be  brought  to
enforce or interpret any provision  contained  herein or to recover  damages for
breach  hereof,  in either  case so long as the  Executive  is not acting in bad
faith,  then the  Company  shall  reimburse  the  Executive  for any  reasonable
attorneys'  fees and necessary costs and  disbursements  incurred as a result of
such  dispute,  legal or  arbitration  proceeding  or tax  audit  or  proceeding
("Expenses"),  and  prejudgment  interest on any money  judgment or  arbitration
award obtained by the Executive  calculated at the rate of interest announced by
Firstar Bank, N. A., Milwaukee,  Wisconsin, or its successors, from time to time
as its prime or base lending rate from the date that  payments to the  Executive
should  have  been  made  under  this  Agreement.  Within  ten  days  after  the
Executive's written request therefor, the Company shall pay to the Executive, or
such other  person or entity as the  Executive  may  designate in writing to the
Company, the Executive's reasonable Expenses in advance of the final disposition
or conclusion of any such dispute, legal or arbitration proceeding.

          15. Payment Obligations Absolute.  The Company's obligation during and
after the  Employment  Period to pay the  Executive  the amounts and to make the
benefit  and  other   arrangements   provided   herein  shall  be  absolute  and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without
limitation, any setoff,  counterclaim,  recoupment,  defense or other right that
the Company may have against the Executive or anyone else. Except as provided in
Section 14, all amounts  payable by the Company  hereunder shall be paid without
notice or demand.  Each and every payment made hereunder by the Company shall be
final,  and the Company will not seek to recover all or any part of such payment
from the Executive,  or from whomsoever may be entitled thereto,  for any reason
whatsoever.

                                      -12-

          16. Successors.

              (a)  If  the  Company   sells,   assigns  or   transfers   all  or
substantially  all of its  business  and assets to any Person or if the  Company
merges into or  consolidates  or otherwise  combines (where the Company does not
survive  such  combination)  with  any  Person  (any  such  event,  a  "Sale  of
Business"),  then the Company shall assign all of its right,  title and interest
in this  Agreement as of the date of such event to such Person,  and the Company
shall cause such Person, by written  agreement in form and substance  reasonably
satisfactory to the Executive, to expressly assume and agree to perform from and
after the date of such  assignment  all of the terms,  conditions and provisions
imposed by this  Agreement  upon the  Company.  Failure of the Company to obtain
such  agreement  prior to the effective date of such Sale of Business shall be a
breach of this Agreement  constituting "Good Reason" hereunder,  except that for
purposes  of  implementing  the  foregoing,  the date  upon  which  such Sale of
Business becomes effective shall be deemed the Termination Date. In case of such
assignment  by the Company and of assumption  and  agreement by such Person,  as
used in this  Agreement,  "Company"  shall  thereafter  mean  such  Person  that
executes  and  delivers  the  agreement  provided for in this Section 16 or that
otherwise  becomes bound by all the terms and  provisions  of this  Agreement by
operation  of law,  and this  Agreement  shall  inure to the  benefit of, and be
enforceable by, such Person. The Executive shall, in the Executive's discretion,
be  entitled  to proceed  against  any or all of such  Persons,  any Person that
theretofore  was such a  successor  to the  Company  (as  defined  in the  first
paragraph  of this  Agreement)  and the Company (as so defined) in any action to
enforce  any  rights of the  Executive  hereunder.  Except as  provided  in this
Subsection,  this  Agreement  shall  not  be  assignable  by the  Company.  This
Agreement shall not be terminated by the voluntary or involuntary dissolution of
the Company.

              (b)  This Agreement and all rights of the Executive shall inure to
the  benefit  of and  be  enforceable  by  the  Executive's  personal  or  legal
representatives, executors, administrators, heirs and beneficiaries. All amounts
payable to the Executive  under Sections 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 14 if the Executive
had  lived  shall  be  paid,  in the  event  of the  Executive's  death,  to the
Executive's  estate,  heirs and  representatives;  provided,  however,  that the
foregoing  shall not be construed to modify any terms of any benefit plan of the
Company,  as such  terms are in effect on the  Effective  Date,  that  expressly
govern benefits under such plan in the event of the Executive's death.

          17. Severability.  The provisions of  this Agreement shall be regarded
as  divisible,  and if any of said  provisions  or any part hereof are  declared
invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the validity
and  enforceability  of the remainder of such provisions or parts hereof and the
applicability thereof shall not be affected thereby.

          18. Amendment.  This  Agreement may not be  amended or modified at any
time except by written instrument executed by the Company and the Executive.

          19. Withholding.  The Company  shall  be  entitled  to  withhold  from
amounts  to be paid to the  Executive  hereunder  any  federal,  state  or local
withholding  or other taxes or charges which it is from time to time required to
withhold;  provided,  that the amount so

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

withheld shall not exceed the minimum amount required to be withheld by law. The
Company  shall be entitled to rely on an opinion of the  National Tax Counsel if
any  question  as to the amount or  requirement  of any such  withholding  shall
arise.

          20. Certain  Rules  of  Construction.  No party shall be considered as
being responsible for the drafting of this Agreement for the purpose of applying
any rule construing  ambiguities  against the drafter or otherwise.  No draft of
this Agreement  shall be taken into account in construing  this  Agreement.  Any
provision of this  Agreement  that  requires an  agreement  in writing  shall be
deemed to require that the writing in question be signed by the Executive and an
authorized representative of the Company.

          21. Governing Law; Resolution of Disputes.

              (a)  This Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder shall
be governed by and construed in  accordance  with the internal laws of the State
of Wisconsin  (excluding any choice of law rules that may direct the application
of the  laws of  another  jurisdiction)  except  that  Section  21(b)  shall  be
construed in  accordance  with the Federal  Arbitration  Act if  arbitration  is
chosen by the Executive as the method of dispute resolution.

              (b)  Any dispute  arising  out of  this  Agreement  shall,  at the
Executive's  election,  be  determined  by  arbitration  under  the rules of the
American Arbitration  Association then in effect (but subject to any evidentiary
standards  set forth in this  Agreement),  in which case both  parties  shall be
bound by the arbitration  award, or by litigation.  Whether the dispute is to be
settled  by  arbitration  or  litigation,  the  venue  for  the  arbitration  or
litigation shall be Oshkosh,  Wisconsin or, at the Executive's  election, if the
Executive  is no longer  residing or working in the Oshkosh,  Wisconsin,  in the
judicial  district  encompassing  the  city  in  which  the  Executive  resides;
provided, that, if the Executive is not then residing in the United States, then
the  election  of the  Executive  with  respect  to such  venue  shall be either
Oshkosh,  Wisconsin or in the judicial  district  encompassing  that city in the
United  States  among the  thirty  cities  having  the  largest  population  (as
determined  by the most  recent  United  States  Census  data  available  at the
Termination  Date) that is closest to the  Executive's  residence.  The  parties
consent to  personal  jurisdiction  in each trial  court in the  selected  venue
having subject matter jurisdiction notwithstanding their residence or situs, and
each party  irrevocably  consents  to service of process in the manner  provided
hereunder for the giving of notices.

          22. Notice.  Notices  given  pursuant  to this  Agreement  shall be in
writing and, except as otherwise provided by Section 12(a)(iii), shall be deemed
given when  actually  received  by the  Executive  or  actually  received by the
Company's  Secretary or any officer of the Company other than the Executive.  If
mailed,  such notices shall be mailed by United  States  registered or certified
mail,  return receipt  requested,  addressee only,  postage  prepaid,  if to the
Company,  to  Oshkosh  Truck  Corporation,  Attention:  Secretary  (or,  if  the
Executive  is then  Secretary,  to the Chief  Executive  Officer),  2307  Oregon
Street, P.O. Box 2566, Oshkosh,  WI 54903-2566,  or if to the Executive,  at the
address set forth below the Executive's signature to this Agreement,  or to such
other address as the party to be notified  shall have  theretofore  given to the
other party in writing.

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

          23. No Waiver. The Executive's or the Company's failure to insist upon
strict  compliance with any provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert
any right the Executive or the Company may have  hereunder,  including,  without
limitation,  the right of the Executive to terminate employment for Good Reason,
shall  not be  deemed  to be a waiver  of such  provision  or right or any other
provision or right of this Agreement.

          24. Headings. The headings herein contained are for reference only and
shall  not  affect  the  meaning  or  interpretation  of any  provision  of this
Agreement.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the

                              CERTAIN DEFINED TERMS

          For purposes of this Agreement,

          (a)  Act. The term "Act" means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.

          (b)  Accrued Benefits.  The term "Accrued  Benefits" shall include the
following amounts, payable as described herein: (i) all base salary for the time

monies advanced in connection with the Executive's employment for reasonable and
necessary  expenses  incurred by the  Executive on behalf of the Company for the

Agreement:

               (i)   (A)  the  Executive   has   committed  any  act  of  fraud,
     embezzlement  or theft in  connection  with the  Executive's  duties  as an
     Executive  or in the  course of  employment  with the  Company  and/or  its
     subsidiaries;  (B) the Executive has  willfully and  continually  failed to
     perform substantially the Executive's duties with the Company or any of its
     Affiliates  (other than any such failure  resulting from  incapacity due to
     physical or mental illness or injury, regardless of whether such illness or
     injury is job-related) for an appropriate  period,  which shall not be less
     than 30 days, after the Chief Executive  Officer of the Company (or, if the
     Executive  is then Chief  Executive  Officer,  the Board) has  delivered  a
     written  demand  for   performance  to  the  Executive  that   specifically
     identifies the manner in which the Chief  Executive  Officer (or the Board,
     as the case may be) believes the Executive has not substantially  performed
     the Executive's  duties; (C) the Executive has willfully engaged in illegal
     conduct or gross misconduct that is materially and  demonstrably  injurious
     to the Company;  (D) the Executive has willfully and  wrongfully  disclosed
     any Trade Secrets or Confidential  Information of the Company or any of its
     Affiliates;  or (E) the Executive has engaged in any Competitive  Activity;
     and in any such case the act or omission shall have been  determined by the
     Board to have been materially  harmful to the Company and its  subsidiaries
     taken as a whole.

               For purposes of this  provision,  (1) no act or failure to act on
     the part of the Executive shall be considered  "willful" unless it is done,
     or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without  reasonable
     belief that the Executive's action or omission was in the best interests of
     the Company and (2) any act, or failure to act, based upon authority  given
     pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or upon the instructions
     of the Chief Executive  Officer or a senior officer of the Company or based
     upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be  conclusively  presumed
     to be done,  or omitted to be done,  by the  Executive in good faith and in
     the best interests of the Company.

               (ii)  (A)  The Company  terminates the Executive's  employment by
     delivering a Notice of Termination to the Executive,  (B) prior to the time
     the Company has terminated the Executive's  employment pursuant to a Notice
     of  Termination,  the

                                       A-2
<PAGE>

     Board, by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters (3/4) of the
     entire  membership of the Board, has adopted a resolution  finding that the
     Executive was guilty of conduct set forth in this definition of Cause,  and
     specifying  the  particulars  thereof in detail,  at a meeting of the Board
     called and held for the  purpose of  considering  such  termination  (after
     reasonable  notice to the Executive and an  opportunity  for the Executive,
     together with the  Executive's  counsel,  to be heard before the Board) and
     (C) the Company  delivers a copy of such  resolution to the Executive  with
     the  Notice  of  Termination  at the time  the  Executive's  employment  is
     terminated.

In the event of a dispute regarding whether the Executive's  employment has been
terminated  for Cause,  no claim by the Company that the Company has  terminated
the Executive's  employment for Cause in accordance with this Agreement shall be
given effect unless the Company  establishes  by clear and  convincing  evidence
that the  Company  has  complied  with the  requirements  of this  Agreement  to
terminate the Executive's employment for Cause.

     directly or indirectly,  of securities of the Company (not including in the
     securities  beneficially  owned  by such  Person  any  securities  acquired
     directly  from the  Company  or its  Affiliates  after  January  31,  2000,
     pursuant  to  express  authorization  by the  Board  that  refers  to  this
     exception) representing 25% or more of (1) the combined voting power of the
     Company's then  outstanding  voting  securities or (2) the then outstanding
     shares of common  stock of the  Company or (C) a merger,  consolidation  or

     Excluded  Persons  will  continue  to  beneficially  own a majority  of the
     outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company; or

               (iv)  the shareholders  of the Company approve a plan of complete
     liquidation  or  dissolution of the Company or an agreement for the sale or

any such  termination  of employment by the Employer (1) was at the request of a
third  party who has taken  steps  reasonably  calculated  to effect a Change in

<PAGE>

terminated by reason of voluntary early retirement,  as agreed in writing by the
Company and the Executive,  the date of such early  retirement that is set forth

                     (A)  If the Executive  shall in good faith give a Notice of
          Termination  for Good Reason and the Company  notifies  the  Executive
          that a dispute exists  concerning the  termination  within the fifteen
          day period following receipt thereof,  then the Executive may elect to
          continue  the  Executive's  employment  during  such  dispute  and the
          Termination  Date shall be  determined  under this  paragraph.  If the
          Executive so elects and it is thereafter determined that the Executive
          terminated  the  Executive's  employment for Good Reason in accordance
          with this Agreement, then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of
          (1) the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either (x) by
          mutual  written  agreement  of the parties or (y) in  accordance  with
          Section 21 or (2) the date of the Executive's  death. If the Executive
          so elects and it is thereafter  determined  that the Executive did not
          terminate  the  Executive's  employment  for Good Reason in accordance
          with this  Agreement,  then the employment of the Executive  hereunder
          shall  continue after such  determination  as if the Executive had not
          delivered the Notice of  Termination  asserting  Good Reason and there
          shall be no  Termination  Date arising out of such  Notice.  In either
          case, this Agreement continues, until the Termination Date, if any, as
          if the Executive had not  delivered the Notice of  Termination  except
          that, if it is finally  determined  that the Executive  terminated the
          Executive's  employment  for  Good  Reason  in  accordance  with  this
          Agreement,  then the Executive shall in no case be denied the benefits
          described  in Section 8  (including a  Termination  Payment)  based on
          events occurring after the Executive  delivered the Executive's Notice
          of Termination.

                     (B)  Except as  provided  in  paragraph  (A) above,  if the
          party  receiving  the Notice of  Termination  notifies the other party
          that a dispute exists  concerning the  termination  within the fifteen
          day period following receipt thereof and it is finally determined that
          termination of the  Executive's  employment for the reason asserted in
          such Notice of Termination  was not in accordance with this Agreement,
          then (1) if such  Notice  was  delivered  by the  Executive,  then the
          Executive   will  be  deemed  to  have   voluntarily   terminated  the
          Executive's  employment  other  than for Good  Reason by means of such

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

                    (i)  if the Optionee ceases to be employed by the Company
for any reason or no reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, with or
without Cause, including by reason of death or disability (any such cessation of
employment being hereinafter referred to as a "Cessation"). The Purchase Option
of the Company, if exercised, must be exercised within ninety (90) days after
the Cessation; provided, however, that if the Option Price has not yet been
determined at the time of Cessation, the Option may be exercised within ninety
(90) days after such determination; or

                    (ii) at any other time subsequent to the Optionee's exercise
of the Option, if the Optionee and the Company mutually agree to effect a
Purchase Option under the terms of this Section 10.

               (b)  Option Price.  The Option Price shall be the Fair Market
                    ------------
Value of the Option Stock. In connection with such valuation, the Optionee
acknowledges and agrees that in determining the Fair Market Value, the Option
Stock shall be valued by applying (and therefore the Option Price shall reflect)
a discount for the fact that the Shares being appraised (including, without
limitation, the Option Stock) represents a minority interest in the Company for
which there is no established trading market.

               (c)  Exercise of Purchase Option.  The Purchase Option shall be
                    ---------------------------
exercised by the Company giving written notice to the Optionee in accordance
with the provisions for giving notices in this Agreement. The purchase price
payable for the Option Stock shall be the Option Price multiplied by the total
number of Shares subject to the Repurchase Option (the "Aggregate Option
Price"). The Aggregate Option Price shall be payable (a) first, by cancellation
of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Optionee to the
Company, and (b) second, to the extent not satisfied by such cancellation, by
delivery of a Company check or promissory note, with such terms as are mutually
agreed upon by the Optionee and the Company, in the amount of the remainder due.
The Aggregate Option Price shall be payable at a closing to be held at the
headquarters office of the Company (the "Closing") within ten days after the
Option Price is established in accordance with Section 10(b); provided, however,
that if the period during which the Purchase Option may be exercised has been
extended in accordance with Section 10(a), there shall be a corresponding
extension of the date of the Closing. At the Closing, the Company shall deliver
the Aggregate Option Price, calculated as provided in the second preceding
sentence, and the Optionee shall deliver to the Company the certificate or
certificates representing the Option Stock, either duly endorsed in favor of the
Company or accompanied by an assignment separate from certificate duly executed
by the Optionee.

               (d)  Termination of Purchase Option.  Any other provision of this
                    ------------------------------
Section 10 notwithstanding, the Purchase Option shall terminate upon the earlier
to occur of (i) the closing of the Company's firmly committed underwritten
initial public

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

offering of its Shares, or (ii) the date that the Shares are listed on an
established stock exchange or quoted on NASDAQ.

          11.  Time of Cessation of Service.  For the purposes of this
               ----------------------------
Agreement, the Optionee's employment or service shall be deemed to have ceased
on the earlier of (a) the date when the Optionee's employment or service in fact
ceased or (b) except in the case of Retirement, the date when the Optionee gave
or received written notice that his or her employment or service is to cease.

          12.  Nontransferability.  The Option shall be exercisable during the
               ------------------
Optionee's lifetime only by the Optionee or by the Optionee's guardian or legal
representative and shall be nontransferable, except that the Optionee may
transfer all or any part of the Option by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution. Except as otherwise provided herein, any attempted alienation,
assignment, pledge, hypothecation, attachment, execution or similar process,
whether voluntary or involuntary, with respect to all or any part of the Option
or any right thereunder shall be null and void and, at the Company's option,
shall cause all of the Optionee's rights under this Agreement to terminate.

          13.  Company's Right of First Refusal.
               --------------------------------

               (a) Before any Shares (which term, for purposes of this Section
13 and the remainder of this Agreement, shall include all securities received by
Optionee as a stock dividend, stock split or other recapitalization or similar
distribution on or in respect of the Shares) issued upon exercise of an Option,
or any beneficial interest therein, may be sold, transferred or assigned
(including a transfer by operation of law), such Shares shall first be offered
for sale to the Company as set forth in this Section 13. Any certificate
representing the Shares so issued shall bear a legend reflecting the
restrictions set forth in this Section 13.

               (b) The Optionee shall deliver a notice (the "Notice") to the
Company stating (i) his or her bona fide intention to sell, transfer or assign
such shares, (ii) the number of Shares proposed to be sold, transferred or
assigned (the "Noticed Shares"), (iii) the price for which it is proposed to
sell, transfer or assign the Noticed Shares (in the case of a transfer not
involving a sale, such price shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value of the
Noticed Shares) and the terms of payment of that price and other terms and
conditions of sale, and (iv) the name and address of the proposed purchaser,
transferee or assignee. The Optionee shall not effect any sale or other transfer
for value of any Noticed Shares other than for money or an obligation to pay
money. For a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company
or its assignee(s) may exercise its right to purchase all or any portion of the
Noticed Shares by giving written notice of exercise to the Optionee. The price
per Share of the Noticed Shares purchased by the Company pursuant to this
Section 13 shall be, in the case of a sale, the price per Share as set forth in
the Notice and, in the case of a transfer not involving a sale, the Fair Market

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

Value of such Shares and the purchase shall be on the same terms and subject to
the same conditions as those set forth in the Notice.

                    (c) The Company's right of first refusal in this Section 13
shall be freely assignable in whole or in part. In the event the Notice provides
for payment for the Noticed Shares to be deferred, the Company shall have the
option of paying for the Noticed Shares with the discounted cash equivalent
(using an interest rate equal to the then prevailing prime rate or similar
interest rate of any bank selected by the Company for this purpose) of the
deferred payment or payments described in the Notice. Any other provision of
this Section 13 to the contrary notwithstanding, the amount of cash payable to
an Optionee pursuant to the exercise of the right of first refusal shall be
first reduced by the amount (if any) of accrued but unpaid interest and then by
the unpaid principal balance with respect to promissory notes or other
indebtedness of the Optionee to the Company. The interest and principal
obligations of the Optionee shall be cancelled to the extent of such reduction.

                    (d) If the Company or any assignee(s) of the Company does
not give notice of its election to purchase all of the Noticed Shares as
provided in this Section 13, then the Optionee may sell or transfer the Noticed
Shares which the Company and its assignees have elected not to purchase to any
purchaser or transferee named in the Notice at, in the case of a sale, the price
specified in the Notice or at a higher price, provided that such sale or
transfer is consummated within three (3) months of the date the Notice was given
to the Company. Any proposed sale, transfer or assignment to be consummated
after the expiration of such three (3) month period shall again be subject to
the right of first refusal set forth in this Section 13.

                    (e) If the Company does not exercise its right of first
refusal with respect to all the Noticed Shares and the Optionee sells, assigns
or transfers any such Noticed Shares to any person (other than an assignee of
the Company's right of first refusal), then such purchaser or transferee (either
being herein called a "Transferee") shall take the Noticed Shares subject to the
obligation not to effect any sale, transfer, assignment or pledge of the Noticed
Shares except in compliance with this Section 13. It shall be a condition to the
sale, transfer or assignment of Noticed Shares to a Transferee that such
Transferee shall enter into written agreement with the Company, which shall be
in form and content satisfactory to the Company, under which the Transferee
agrees to be bound by the terms of this Section 13 as if such sale Transferee
were the Optionee.

                    (f) The Optionee shall not pledge or grant a security
interest in any or all of the Shares unless prior thereto the pledgee or secured
party delivers to the Company a written agreement, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Company, acknowledging receipt of a copy of this Agreement
and unconditionally agreeing that any foreclosure of the pledge or security
interest shall be treated as a sale of the Shares by Optionee to which all
provisions of this Section 13 shall apply.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

               (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 13,
the Company shall not have any rights under this Section 13 at any time
subsequent to the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering of
Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the
Act.

               (h) The Optionee shall not sell, transfer, assign or pledge any
Shares still subject to the right of first refusal described in this Section 13
other than in the manner expressly permitted herein, and any such sale,
transfer, assignment or pledge of Shares in violation hereof shall be void. The
Company shall make a notation in its records of all restrictions on transfer of
the Shares. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any
Shares which shall have been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged in violation
of any of the provisions set forth in this Agreement, or (ii) to treat as owner
of such shares or to afford the right to vote as such owner or to pay dividends
to any transferee to whom such shares shall have been so transferred.

          14.  Exempt Transfers.  The provisions of Section 13 hereof shall not
               ----------------
apply to a transfer of any Shares by the Optionee, either during his or her
lifetime or on death by will or intestacy, to his or her ancestors, descendants
or spouse, or any custodian or trustee for the account or benefit of the
Optionee or the Optionee's ancestors, descendants or spouse; provided, however,
that the transferee shall receive and hold such Shares subject to the provisions
of Section 13 hereof and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares
except in accordance herewith; and provided further that the transferee shall
acknowledge and agree in a writing satisfactory to the Company to be bound by
the terms of this Agreement.

          15.  Effect of Exercise.  Upon exercise of all or any part of the
               ------------------
Option, the number of Shares subject to the Option under this Agreement shall be
reduced by the number of Shares with respect to which such exercise is made.

          16.  Exercise of Option.  The Option may be exercised by delivering to
               ------------------
the Company (a) a written notice of exercise in substantially the form

Exercise Price for each Share purchased under the Option, and (c) the executed
Agreement to be Bound by that certain Stock Purchase and Stockholders Agreement,

specify the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised and
shall be signed by the person exercising the Option.  If the Option is exercised
by a person other than the Optionee, such notice shall be accompanied by proof,
satisfactory to the Company, of such person's right to exercise the Option.  The
Exercise Price shall be payable in U.S. dollars in cash (by check), or, at the
option of the Administrator, by (i) by delivery of Shares registered in the name
of the Optionee having a Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the
amount of the Exercise Price, (ii) any combination of the payment of cash and
the delivery of Shares, or (iii) the surrender for cancellation of Options to
purchase a number of Shares, the Fair Market Value of the appreciation of which
is equivalent to the Exercise Price of the number of Shares being

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

purchased pursuant to the Option or (v) as otherwise approved by the
Administrator in its sole and absolute discretion.

          17.  Withholding Taxes.  The Company may require the Optionee to
               -----------------
deliver payment, upon exercise of the Option, of all Applicable Taxes (in
addition to the Exercise Price) with respect to the difference between the
Exercise Price and the Fair Market Value of the Shares acquired upon exercise,
which payment shall be made (a) in cash, (b) upon written approval from the
Administrator, by delivery of Shares registered in the name of the Optionee, or
by the Company not issuing such number of Shares subject to the Option, having a
Fair Market Value at the time of exercise in the amount to be withheld or (c)
upon written approval from the Administrator, any combination of (a) and (b)
above.

          18.  Issuance of Shares.  Subject to the foregoing conditions, the
               ------------------
Company, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of a proper notice of
exercise and without transfer or issue tax or other incidental expense to the
person exercising the Option, shall deliver to such person at the principal
office of the Company, or such other location as may be acceptable to the
Company and such person, one or more certificates for the Shares with respect to
which the Option is exercised.  Such shares shall be fully paid and
nonassessable and shall be issued in the name of such person.  However, at the
request of the Optionee, such shares may be issued in the names of the Optionee
and his or her spouse (a) as joint tenants with right of survivorship, (b) as
community property or (c) as tenants in common without right of survivorship.

          19.  Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization.  In the event of
               ------------------------------------------
changes in all of the outstanding Shares by reason of stock dividends, stock
splits, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, combinations, exchanges of
shares, separations, reorganizations or liquidations or similar events or in the
event of extraordinary cash or non-cash dividends being declared with respect to
outstanding Shares or other similar transactions, the number and class of Shares
available under the Option, applicable purchase prices, and all other applicable
provisions, shall be equitably adjusted by the Administrator.  The foregoing
adjustment and the manner of application of the foregoing provisions shall be
determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.  Any such adjustment may
provide for the elimination of any fractional Share which might otherwise become
subject to an Award.

          20.  Rights as Shareholder.  Neither the Optionee nor any other person
               ---------------------
entitled to exercise the Option shall have any rights as a shareholder of the
Company with respect to the Shares subject to the Option until a certificate for
such shares has been issued to him or her following the exercise of the Option.

          21.  No Rights as to Service.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be
               -----------------------
