                      ----------------------------------
authorized to construe and interpret the Plan and to promulgate, amend and
rescind rules and regulations relating to the implementation, administration and
maintenance of the Plan. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the
Committee shall make all determinations necessary or advisable for the
implementation, administration and maintenance of the Plan including, without
limitation, (a) selecting the Plan's Participants, (b) making awards in such
amounts and form as the Committee shall determine, (c) imposing such
restrictions, terms and conditions upon such awards as the Committee shall deem

under such conditions and limitations as it may prescribe, except that the
Committee shall not delegate its authority with regard to the selection for
participation in the Plan and/or the granting of any awards to Participants. The
Committee's determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made
selectively among Participants, whether or not such Participants are similarly
situated. Any determination, decision or action of the Committee in connection
with the construction, interpretation, administration, implementation or
maintenance of the Plan shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all
Participants and any person(s) claiming under or through any Participants. The
Company shall effect the granting of awards under the Plan, in accordance with

and/or other instruments in such form as is approved by the Committee.

                  3.3 Liability Limitation. Neither the Board nor the Committee,

                  3.4 Pre-IPO Administration. Notwithstanding anything in the
                      ----------------------
Plan to the contrary and prior to the Closing (the "Pre-IPO Period"), the Plan
may also be administered by the Board. During the Pre-IPO Period (but not
beyond), the Board shall have all the authority, rights and powers set forth in
Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 of the Plan and may make any and all determinations,
and take any and all other actions, which may or could be made, or taken, by the
Committee under the Plan.

         4. Term of Plan/Common Stock Subject to Plan. The Plan shall terminate
            -----------------------------------------

date no further awards shall be granted under the Plan. The maximum number of
shares of Common Stock in respect of which awards may be granted or paid out
under the Plan, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 9.2 of the Plan,
shall not exceed 7,500,000 shares (which includes an adjustment for the stock
split implemented prior to the Closing). In the event of a change in the Common
Stock of the Company that is limited to a change in the designation thereof to
"Capital Stock" or other similar designation, or to a change in the par value
thereof, or from par value to no par value, without increase or decrease in the
number of issued shares, the shares resulting from any such change shall be
deemed to be the Common Stock for purposes of the Plan. Common Stock which may
be issued under the Plan may be either authorized and unissued shares or issued
shares which have been reacquired by the Company (in the open-market or in
private transactions) and which are being held as treasury shares. No fractional
shares of Common Stock shall be issued under the Plan.

         5. Eligibility. Individuals eligible for awards under the Plan shall
            -----------
consist of all employees, non-employee directors, consultants and other
individuals or entities, or those who will become employees, non-employee
directors, or consultants of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, who are
responsible for the management, growth and protection of the business of the
Company and/or its Subsidiaries or whose performance or contribution, in the
sole discretion of the Committee, benefits or will benefit the Company.

         6.       Stock Options.
                  -------------

                  6.1 Terms and Conditions. Awards of stock options granted
                      --------------------
under the Plan shall be in respect of Common Stock and may be in the form of
Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options (sometimes referred to
collectively herein as the "Stock Option(s))". Such Stock Options shall be
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 6 and any
additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the express terms and
provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall set forth in the relevant Award
Agreement.

                  6.2 Grant. Stock Options may be granted under the Plan in such
                      -----
form as the Committee may from time to time approve. Special provisions shall
apply to Incentive Stock Options granted to any employee who owns (within the
meaning of Section 422(b)(6) of the Code) more than ten percent (10%) of the
total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or its parent
corporation or any subsidiary of the Company, within the meaning of Sections
424(e) and (f) of the Code (a "10% Shareholder").

                  6.3 Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common
                      --------------
Stock subject to a Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee; provided,
                                                                      --------
however, that the exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option shall not be less
--------
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on
the date of the grant of such Incentive Stock Option; provided, further,
                                                      --------  -------
however, that, in the case of a 10%
--------
<PAGE>
                                     -5-

Shareholder, the exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option shall not be less
than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
on the date of grant.

                  6.4 Term. The term of each Stock Option shall be such period
                      ----
of time as is fixed by the Committee; provided, however, that the term of any
Incentive Stock Option shall not exceed ten (10) years (five (5) years, in the
case of a 10% Shareholder) after the date immediately preceding the date on
which the Incentive Stock Option is granted.

                  6.5 Method of Exercise. A Stock Option may be exercised, in
                      ------------------
whole or in part, by giving written notice of exercise to the Secretary of the
Company, or the Secretary's designee, specifying the number of shares to be
purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the exercise
price in cash, by certified check, bank draft or money order payable to the
order of the Company or, if permitted by the Committee (in its sole discretion)
and applicable law, by delivery of, alone or in conjunction with a partial cash
or acceptable instrument payment, (a) a fully-secured promissory note or notes,
(b) shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant for at least six (6)
months, or (c) some other form of payment acceptable to the Committee. The
Committee may also permit Participants (either on a selective or group basis) to
utilize a broker other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to
simultaneously exercise Stock Options and sell or surrender the shares of Common
Stock thereby acquired, pursuant to a "cashless exercise" arrangement or program
maintained by such broker, selected by and approved of in all respects in
advance by the Committee. Payment instruments shall be received by the Company
subject to collection. The proceeds received by the Company upon exercise of any
Stock Option may be used by the Company for general corporate purposes. Any
portion of a Stock Option that is exercised may not be exercised again.

                  6.6 Exercisability. In respect of any Stock Option granted
                      --------------
under the Plan, unless otherwise (a) determined by the Committee (in its sole
discretion) at any time and from time to time in respect of any such Stock
Option, or (b) provided in the Award Agreement or in the Participant's
employment agreement (if any) in respect of any such Stock Option, such Stock
Option shall become exercisable as to the aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock underlying such Stock Option, as determined on the date of grant, as
follows:

     o    25% on the first anniversary of the date of grant of the Stock Option,
          provided the Participant is then employed by the Company and/or one of
          its Subsidiaries;

     o    50 %, on the second anniversary of the date of grant of the Stock
          Option, provided the Participant is then
<PAGE>
                                      -6-

          employed by the Company and/or one of its Subsidiaries;

     o    75%, on the third anniversary of the date of grant of the Stock
          Option, provided the Participant is then employed by the Company
          and/or one of its Subsidiaries;

     o    100%, on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant of the Stock
          Option, provided the Participant is then employed by the Company
          and/or one of its Subsidiaries.

In no event shall any Stock Option become exercisable as to more than 100% of
the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Stock Option.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.6, a Stock
Option shall become one hundred percent (100%) exercisable as to the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Stock Option upon the death,
Disability or Retirement of the Participant.

         7. Termination of Employment or Provision of Services. Except as
            --------------------------------------------------
provided in an Award Agreement and subject to any determination of the Committee
pursuant to Section 6.6 of the Plan, if a Participant's employment with, or
provision of services to, the Company terminates for any reason, any of the then
unexercisable Stock Options shall be forfeited and canceled by the Company.
Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7 or in any Award Agreement, if a
Participant's employment with, or provision of services to, the Company and its
Subsidiaries terminates for any reason, such Participant's rights, if any, to
exercise any then exercisable Stock Options, if any, shall terminate thirty (30)
days after the date of such termination (but not beyond the stated term of any
such Stock Option as determined under Sections 6.4) and thereafter such Stock
Options shall be forfeited and canceled by the Company. The Committee, in its
sole discretion, may determine that any such Participant's Stock Options, if
any, to the extent exercisable immediately prior to any termination of
employment or the provision of services (other than a termination due to death,
Retirement or Disability), may remain exercisable for an additional specified
time period after such thirty (30) day period expires (subject to any other
applicable terms and provisions of the Plan and the relevant Award Agreement),
but not beyond the stated term of any such Stock Option. Except as provided in
any Award Agreement, if any termination of employment or the provision of
services is due to death, Retirement or Disability, a Participant (and such
Participant's estate, designated beneficiary or other legal representative, as
the case may be and as determined by the Committee) shall have the right, to the
extent exercisable as of the date of any such termination, to exercise such
Stock Options, if any, at any time within the ninety (90) day period following
such termination due to
<PAGE>
                                      -7-

death, Retirement or Disability (but not beyond the term of any such Stock
Option as determined under Sections 6.4).

         8.  Non-transferability of Awards.
             -----------------------------

                  8.1 Stock Options. Unless otherwise provided in the Award
                      -------------
Agreement, no Stock Option under the Plan or any Award Agreement, and no rights
or interests herein or therein, shall or may be assigned, transferred, sold,
exchanged, encumbered, pledged, or otherwise hypothecated or disposed of by a
Participant or any beneficiary(ies) of any Participant, except by testamentary
disposition by the Participant or the laws of intestate succession. No such
interest shall be subject to execution, attachment or similar legal process,
including, without limitation, seizure for the payment of the Participant's
debts, judgements, alimony, or separate maintenance. Unless otherwise provided
in the Award Agreement, during the lifetime of a Participant, Stock Options are
exercisable only by the Participant.

                  8.2 Option Shares. No voluntary or involuntary transfer or
                      -------------
pledge of shares of the Company after issuance thereof to the Participant (or of
any shares subsequently issued in relation to such shares, whether as a stock
dividend or otherwise) may be made or suffered by the Participant except
pursuant to the terms of Stock Option Plan Stockholders Agreement (the
"Stockholders Agreement"), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "A." The
Participant shall execute and deliver to the Company a counterpart to the
Stockholders Agreement at the time of and in connection with the grant of any
Stock Option to such Participant, unless the Participant has previously executed
the Stockholders Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the
contrary, the Company shall be entitled to treat any Stock Option as void unless
and until the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company a
counterpart to the Stockholders Agreement.

         9. Changes in Capitalization and Other Matters.
            -------------------------------------------

                  9.1 No Corporate Action Restriction. The existence of the
                      -------------------------------
Plan, any Award Agreement and/or the awards granted hereunder shall not limit,
affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Board or the
shareholders of the Company to make or authorize (a) any adjustment,
recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company's or any
Subsidiary's capital structure or its business, (b) any merger, consolidation or
change in the ownership of the Company or any Subsidiary, (c) any issue of
bonds, debentures, capital, preferred or prior preference stocks ahead of or
affecting the Company's or any Subsidiary's capital stock or the rights thereof,
(d) any dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Subsidiary, (e) any
sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company's or any Subsidiary's assets
or business, or (f) any other corporate act or proceeding by the Company or any
Subsidiary. No Participant, beneficiary or any other person shall have any claim
against any member of the Board or the Committee, the Company or any Subsidiary,
or any employees, officers or agents of the Company or any subsidiary, as a
result of any such action.

                                      -8-

                  9.2 Recapitalization Adjustments. In the event of any change
                      ----------------------------
in capitalization affecting the Common Stock of the Company, including, without
limitation, a stock dividend or other distribution, stock split, reverse stock
split, recapitalization, consolidation, subdivision, split-up, spin-off,
split-off, combination or exchange of shares or other form of reorganization or
recapitalization, or any other change affecting the Common Stock, the Board
shall authorize and make such proportionate adjustments, if any, as the Board
deems appropriate to reflect such change, including, without limitation, with
respect to the aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock for which Stock
Options in respect thereof may be granted under the Plan, the maximum number of
shares of the Common Stock which may be granted or awarded to any Participant,
the number of shares of the Common Stock covered by each outstanding Stock
Options, and the exercise price per share of Common Stock in respect of
outstanding Stock Options.

                  9.3  Certain Mergers.
                       ---------------

                           9.3.1 If the Company effects any merger,
         reorganization or other business combination with any person or entity
         (such merger, reorganization or other business combination to be
         referred to herein as a "Merger Event") and as a result of any such
         Merger Event the Company will be or is the surviving corporation, a
         Participant shall be entitled, as of the date of the Merger Event (the
         "Execution Date") and with respect to both exercisable and
         unexercisable Stock Options (but only to the extent not previously
         exercised), to receive substitute stock options in respect of the
         shares of the surviving corporation on such terms and conditions, as to
         the number of shares, pricing and otherwise, which shall substantially
         preserve the value, rights and benefits of any affected Stock Options
         granted hereunder as of the date of the consummation of the Merger
         Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.3, if
         any Merger Event occurs, the Company shall have the right, but not the
         obligation, to pay to each affected Participant an amount in cash or
         check equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
         underlying any affected unexercised Stock Options as of the Execution
         Date (whether then exercisable or not) over the aggregate exercise
         price of such unexercised Stock Options, and upon any such payment by
         the Company, such affected Stock Options shall be immediately
         cancelled.

                           9.3.2 If, in the case of a Merger Event in which the
         Company will not be, or is not, the surviving corporation, and the
         Company determines not to make the cash or check payment described in
         Section 9.3.1 of the Plan, the Company shall compel and obligate, as a
         condition of the consummation of the Merger Event, the surviving or
         resulting corporation and/or the other party to the Merger Event, as
         necessary, or any parent, subsidiary or acquiring corporation thereof,
         to grant, with respect to both exercisable and unexercisable Stock
         Options (but only to the extent not previously exercised), substitute
         stock options
<PAGE>
                                      -9-

          in respect of the shares of common or other capital stock of such
          surviving or resulting corporation on such terms and conditions, as to
          the number of shares, pricing and otherwise, which shall substantially
          preserve the value, rights and benefits of any affected Stock Options
          previously granted hereunder as of the date of the consummation of the
          Merger Event.

                           9.3.3 Upon receipt by any affected Participant of any
         such cash, check, or substitute stock options or stock appreciation
         rights as a result of any such Merger Event, such Participant's
         affected Stock Options for which such cash, check or substitute awards
         was received shall be thereupon canceled without the need for obtaining
         the consent of any such affected Participant.

                           9.3.4  The foregoing adjustments and the manner of
application of the foregoing provisions, including, without limitation, the
issuance of any substitute stock options, shall be determined in good faith by
the Committee in its sole discretion. Any such adjustment may provide for the
elimination of fractional shares.

         10.  [RESERVED]

         11. Amendment, Suspension and Termination. The Board may suspend or
             -------------------------------------
terminate the Plan (or any portion thereof) at any time and may amend the Plan
at any time and from time to time in such respects as the Board may deem
advisable to insure that any and all Stock Option awards conform to or otherwise
reflect any change in applicable laws or regulations, or to permit the Company
or the Participants to benefit from any change in applicable laws or
regulations, or in any other respect the Board may deem to be in the best
interests of the Company or any Subsidiary. No such amendment, suspension or
termination shall materially adversely effect the rights of any Participant
under any outstanding Stock Options, without the consent of such Participant.
The Committee may (in its sole discretion) amend or modify at any time and from
time to time the terms and provisions of any outstanding Stock Options, in any
manner to the extent that the Committee under the Plan or any Award Agreement
could have initially determined the restrictions, terms and provisions of such
Stock Options, including, without limitation, changing or accelerating the date
or dates as of which such Stock Options shall become exercisable. No such
amendment or modification shall, however, materially adversely affect the rights
of any Participant under any such award without the consent of such Participant.

         12.      Miscellaneous.
                  -------------

                  12.1 Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to
                       ---------------
deduct from any payment or settlement under the Plan, including, without
limitation, the exercise of any Stock Option, any federal, state, local or other
taxes of any kind which the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary
to be withheld to comply with the
<PAGE>
                                     -10-

Code and/or any other applicable law, rule or regulation. If the Committee, in
its sole discretion, permits shares of Common Stock to be used to satisfy any
such tax withholding, such Common Stock shall be valued based on the Fair Market
Value of such stock as of the date the tax withholding is required to be made,
such date to be determined by the Committee. The Committee may establish rules
limiting the use of Common Stock to meet withholding requirements by
Participants who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, the
Company shall have the right to require payment from a Participant to cover any
applicable withholding or other employment taxes due upon any payment or
settlement under the Plan.

                  12.2 No Right to Employment. Neither the adoption of the Plan,
                       ----------------------
the granting of any award, nor the execution of any Award Agreement, shall
confer upon any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary any right to continued
employment with the Company or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, nor shall it
interfere in any way with the right, if any, of the Company or any Subsidiary to
terminate the employment of any employee at any time for any reason.

                  12.3 Other Company Benefit and Compensation Programs. Payments
                       -----------------------------------------------
and other benefits received by a Participant under an award made pursuant to the
Plan shall not be deemed a part of a Participant's compensation for purposes of
the determination of benefits under any other employee welfare or benefit plans
or arrangements, if any, provided by the Company or any Subsidiary unless
expressly provided in such other plans or arrangements, or except where the
Board expressly determines in writing that inclusion of an award or portion of
an award should be included to accurately reflect competitive compensation
practices or to recognize that an award has been made in lieu of a portion of
competitive annual base salary or other cash compensation.

                  12.4 Listing, Registration and Other Legal Compliance. No
                       ------------------------------------------------
awards or shares of the Common Stock shall be required to be issued or granted
under the Plan unless legal counsel for the Company shall be satisfied that such
issuance or grant will be in compliance with all applicable federal and state
securities laws and regulations and any other applicable laws or regulations.
The Committee may require, as a condition of any payment or share issuance, that
certain agreements, undertakings, representations, certificates, and/or
information, as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable, be executed or
provided to the Company to assure compliance with all such applicable laws or
regulations. Certificates for shares of the Common Stock delivered under the
Plan may be subject to such stock-transfer orders and such other restrictions as
the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, or other
requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon
which the Common Stock is then listed, and any applicable federal or state
securities law. In addition, if, at any time specified herein (or in any Award
Agreement or otherwise) for (a) the making of any award, or the making of any
determination, (b) the issuance or other distribution of Common Stock, or (c)
the payment of amounts to or through a Participant with respect to any award,
any law, rule, regulation or other
<PAGE>
                                     -11-

requirement of any governmental authority or agency shall require either the
Company, any Subsidiary or any Participant (or any estate, designated
beneficiary or other legal representative thereof) to take any action in
connection with any such determination, any such shares to be issued or
distributed, any such payment, or the making of any such determination, as the
case may be, shall be deferred until such required action is taken.

                  12.5 Designation of Beneficiary. Each Participant to whom an
                       --------------------------
award has been made under the Plan may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries
to exercise any option or to receive any payment which under the terms of the
Plan and the relevant Award Agreement may become exercisable or payable on or
after the Participant's death. At any time, and from time to time, any such
designation may be changed or canceled by the Participant without the consent of
any such beneficiary. Any such designation, change or cancellation must be on a
form provided for that purpose by the Committee and shall not be effective until
received by the Committee. If no beneficiary has been designated by a deceased
Participant, or if the designated beneficiaries have predeceased the
Participant, the beneficiary shall be the Participant's estate. If the
Participant designates more than one beneficiary, any payments under the Plan to
such beneficiaries shall be made in equal shares unless the Participant has
expressly designated otherwise, in which case the payments shall be made in the
shares designated by the Participant.

                  12.6 Governing Law. The Plan and all actions taken thereunder
                       -------------
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Delaware, without reference to the principles of conflict of laws thereof. Any
titles and headings herein are for reference purposes only, and shall in no way
limit, define or otherwise affect the meaning, construction or interpretation of
any provisions of the Plan.

                  12.7 Effective Date. The Plan as amended and restated shall be
                       --------------
effective upon its approval by the Board and adoption by the Company, subject to
the approval of the Plan by the Company's shareholders in accordance with
Section 422 of the Code.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Plan is adopted by the Company as of
the 30th day of JUNE, 1999 and amended on February 4, 2000 and October 27, 2000.

         Rights Agreement to the contrary, no Distribution Date, Shares
         Acquisition Date, Section 11(a)(ii) Event or Section 13 Event shall be
         deemed to have occurred, neither Green Valley nor any Affiliate or
         Associate of Green Valley shall be deemed to have become an Acquiring
         Person and no holder of Rights shall be entitled to exercise such
         Rights under or be entitled to any rights pursuant to Section 7(a),
         11(a) or 13(a) of this Rights Agreement solely by reason of (x) the
         approval, execution, delivery or effectiveness of the Merger Agreement
         or (y) the consummation of the transactions contemplated under the
         Merger Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof (including,
         without limitation, the consummation of the merger of the Company with
         and into Green Valley (the "Merger")). Furthermore, upon the
         consummation of the Merger, this Rights Agreement shall automatically
         terminate."

         4. Upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated under the
Merger Agreement, the Company shall provide the Rights Agent with written notice

Agreement shall remain unchanged and shall remain in full force and effect.

         6. This Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws
of Delaware and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of such State applicable to contracts to be made and
performed entirely within such State, provided, however, that all provisions
regarding the rights, duties and obligations of the Rights Agent shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York
applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State.

         7. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one
