power of the Company or its shareholders to make or authorize any or all
adjustments, dividends, stock dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations or
other changes in the Company's capital structure or its business, or any merger
or consolidation of the Company, or any issue bonds, debentures, preferred or

         5.    Rights as Stockholder. An Optionee shall have no rights as a
stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares underlying the Option
until the day of the issuance of a stock certificate to him or her for those
shares upon payment of the exercise price in accordance with the terms and
provisions hereof. Subject to paragraph 7, below, no adjustments shall be made
for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or other
property) or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to
the date such stock certificate is issued.

or her Option with respect to any of the Option Shares in accordance with the
provisions of paragraph 3, above, the Optionee shall pay to the Company upon

withholding or other employment tax that may be due upon such exercise. The
determination of the amount of any such federal, state or local tax withholding
or other employment tax due in such event shall be made by the Company and shall
be binding upon the Optionee.

         7.    Recapitalization; Reorganization. The shares underlying this
Option are shares of Common Stock as constituted on the date of this Agreement,
but if, during the Option Period and prior to the delivery by the Company of all
of the shares of Common Stock with respect to which this Option is granted, the
Company shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of shares or other capital
readjustment, the payment of a stock dividend or some other increase or decrease
in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, without receiving
compensation therefor in money, services or property, then, (a) in the event of
any increase in the number of such shares outstanding, the number of shares of
Common Stock then remaining subject to the Option shall be proportionately
increased (except that any fraction of a share resulting from any such
adjustment shall be excluded from the operation of this Option Agreement), and
the exercise price per share shall be proportionately reduced, and, (b) in the
event of a reduction in the number of such shares outstanding, the number of
shares of Common Stock then remaining subject to this Option shall be
proportionately reduced (except that any fractional share resulting from any
such adjustment shall be excluded from the operation of this Option Agreement),
and the exercise price per share shall be proportionately increased.

         In the event of a merger of one or more corporations into the Company
with respect to which the Company shall be the surviving or resulting
corporation, the Optionee shall, at no additional cost, be entitled upon any
exercise of this Option to receive (subject to any required action by
shareholders), in lieu of the number of shares as to which this Option shall
then be so exercised , the number and class of shares of stock or other
securities to which the Optionee would have been entitled pursuant to the terms
of the agreement of merger if, immediately prior to such merger, the Optionee
had been the holder of record of a number of shares of Common Stock of the
Company equal to the number of shares as to which such Option shall be so
exercised; provided, however, that, anything herein contained to the contrary
           --------  -------
notwithstanding, upon the occurrence of any event described in Section 5(g) of
the Plan, this Option shall be subject to acceleration as provided in such
Section 5(g).

         In the event of a change in the Common Stock as presently constituted,
which change is limited to a change of all the authorized shares with par value
into the same number of shares with a different par value or without par value,
the shares resulting from any such change shall be deemed to be the Common Stock
within the meaning of the Plan.

         The existence of this Option shall not affect in any way the right or
power of the Company or its shareholders to make or authorize any or all
adjustments, dividends, stock dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations or
other changes in the Company's capital structure or its business, or any merger
or consolidation of the Company, or any issue bonds, debentures, preferred or
other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise
affecting, the Common Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its
assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a
similar character or otherwise.

         8.    No Registration Rights. Anything in this Option Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, if, at any time specified herein for the issuance of
Option Shares, any law, regulation or requirements of any governmental authority
having jurisdiction in the premises shall require either the Company or the
Optionee, in the opinion of the Company's counsel, to take any action in
connection with the shares then to be issued, the issue of such shares shall be
deferred until such action shall have been taken. Nothing in this Option
Agreement shall be

                                        4

<PAGE>

construed to obligate the Company at any time to file or maintain the
effectiveness of a registration statement under the Act, or under the securities
laws of any state or other jurisdiction, or to take or cause to be taken any
action which may be necessary in order to provide an exemption from the
registration requirements of the Act under Rule 144 or any other exemption with
respect to the Option Shares or otherwise for resale or other transfer by the
Optionee (or by the executor or administrator of such Optionee's estate or a
person who acquired the Option or any Option Shares or other rights by bequest
or inheritance or by reason of the death of the Optionee) as a result of the
exercise of an Option granted pursuant to this Option Agreement.

         9.    Resolution of Disputes. Any disputes or disagreement that arises
under, or as a result of, or pursuant to, this Option Agreement shall be
determined by the Committee in its absolute and uncontrolled discretion, and any
such determination or other determination by the Committee under or pursuant to
this Option Agreement, and any interpretation by the Committee of the terms of
this Option Agreement, shall be final, binding and conclusive on all parties
affected thereby.

         10.   Compliance with the Act. Notwithstanding any provision herein to
the contrary or in the Plan, the Company shall be under no obligation to issue
any shares of Common Stock to the Optionee upon exercise of the Option granted
hereby unless and until the Company has determined that such issuance is either
exempt from registration, or is registered, under the Act and is either exempt
from registration and qualification, or is registered or qualified, as
applicable, under all applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws.
