Exhibit 10.9

                                 LEARNCOM, INC.
                           2000 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

       This  LearnCom,   Inc.  2000  Equity   Incentive  Plan  (the  "PLAN")  is
established by LearnCom,  Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "COMPANY"),  effective
as of May 19,  2000 (the  "EFFECTIVE  DATE"),  subject  to the  approval  of the
shareholders  of the Company within twelve (12) months  thereafter.  Capitalized
terms not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in Section 25.

       1.     PURPOSE.  The Plan is  intended  to provide  qualifying  Employees
(including officers and Directors),  Independent  Directors and Consultants with
equity ownership in the Company,  thereby  strengthening their commitment to the
success  of the  Company,  promoting  the  identity  of  interests  between  the
Company's shareholders and such Employees, Independent Directors and Consultants
and  stimulating  their  efforts  on behalf of the  Company,  and to assist  the
Company in attracting and retaining talented personnel.

       2.     SCOPE OF THE  PLAN.  Subject  to  adjustment  in  accordance  with
Section 20, the total  number of Shares for which grants under the Plan shall be
available is 102,000,000.  If any Shares subject to any Award granted  hereunder
are forfeited or such Award  otherwise  terminates  without the issuance of such
Shares or for other  consideration in lieu of such Shares, the Shares subject to
such Award, to the extent of any such forfeiture or termination,  shall again be
available  for  grant  under  the  Plan.  Shares  awarded  under the Plan may be
treasury shares or newly-issued shares.

       3.     ADMINISTRATION.

              (a)    The Plan shall be  administered  by a Committee which shall
consist of at least two or more  members of the Board,  all of whom,  so long as
the Company remains a Public Company, shall qualify as "non-employee  directors"
under  Section  (b)(3)(i) of Rule 16b-3.  The number of members of the Committee
may from time to time be  increased  or  decreased,  and so long as the  Company
remains a Public  Company,  shall be  subject to such  conditions,  as the Board
deems  appropriate  to permit  transactions  in Shares  pursuant  to the Plan to
satisfy such conditions of Rule 16b-3 as then in effect.

              (b)    Subject  to  the  express   provisions  of  the  Plan,  the
Committee has full and final authority and discretion as follows:

          (i) to  determine  when and to whom  Awards  should be granted and the
     terms,  conditions and  restrictions  applicable to each Award,  including,
     without limitation,  (A) the exercise price of the Award, (B) the method of
     payment for Shares purchased upon the exercise of the Award, (C) the method
     of  satisfaction of any tax  withholding  obligation  arising in connection
     with the Award, (D) the timing,  terms and conditions of the exercisability
     of the  Award or the  vesting  of any  Shares  acquired  upon the  exercise
     thereof,  (E) the  time of the  expiration  of the  vesting  of any  Shares
     acquired  upon  the  exercise  thereof,  (F) the  effect  of the  Grantee's
     termination  of  employment  or  service  with  the  Company  on any of the
     foregoing,  (G) all other terms,  conditions and restrictions

<PAGE>

     applicable to the Award or such Shares not  inconsistent  with the terms of
     the Plan, (H) the benefit payable under any SAR or Performance  Share,  and
     (I) whether or not specific  Awards shall be identified with other specific
     Awards,  and if so whether they shall be exercisable  cumulatively with, or
     alternatively to, such other specific Awards;

          (ii) to determine  the amount,  if any,  that a Grantee  shall pay for
     Restricted  Shares,  whether  to  permit or  require  the  payment  of cash
     dividends  thereon  to be  deferred  and the terms  related  thereto,  when
     Restricted Shares  (including  Restricted Shares acquired upon the exercise
     of any Award) shall be  forfeited  and whether such Shares shall be held in
     escrow;

          (iii) to interpret the Plan and to make all  determinations  necessary
     or advisable for the administration of the Plan;

          (iv) to  make,  amend  and  rescind  rules,  guidelines  and  policies
     relating to the Plan, or to adopt  supplements to, or alternative  versions
     of, the Plan,  including,  without  limitation,  rules with  respect to the
     exercisability  and  forfeitability  of  Awards  upon  the  termination  of
     employment or service of a Grantee;

          (v) to determine the terms,  conditions and  restrictions of all Award
     Agreements  (which  need not be  identical)  and,  with the  consent of the
     Grantee, to amend any such Award Agreement at any time, among other things,
     to permit  transfers  of such Awards to the extent  permitted  by the Plan,
     except  that the  consent  of the  Grantee  shall not be  required  for any
     amendment which (A) does not adversely  affect the rights of the Grantee or
     (B) is necessary or advisable (as determined by the Committee) to carry out
     the purpose of the Award as a result of any change in applicable law;

          (vi) to cancel,  with the consent of the Grantee,  outstanding  Awards
     and to grant new Awards in substitution therefor;

          (vii) to accelerate the  exercisability of, and to accelerate or waive
     any or all of the terms,  conditions  and  restrictions  applicable to, any
     Award or any group of Awards for any reason and at any time,  including  in
     connection with a termination of employment (other than for Cause);

          (viii)  subject to Section  6(c),  to extend the time during which any
     Award or group of Awards may be exercised;

          (ix) to make such  adjustments or  modifications to Awards to Grantees
     working  outside the United States as are advisable to fulfill the purposes
     of the Plan;

          (x) to impose such additional terms,  conditions and restrictions upon
     the grant,  exercise or retention of Awards as the Committee may, before or
     concurrent with the grant thereof, deem appropriate; and

          (xi) to take any other action with respect to any matters  relating to
     the Plan for which it is responsible.

                                       2
<PAGE>

                     The  determination of the Committee on all matters relating
       to the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be final.

       4.     INDEMNIFICATION  AND  REIMBURSEMENT.  Service  as a member  of the
Committee or any other duly appointed subcommittee shall constitute service as a
Board  member,   and  such  members  shall   accordingly  be  entitled  to  full
indemnification  and reimbursement as Board members for their service as members
of the Committee or any other duly appointed subcommittee. No Committee or other
duly appointed  subcommittee member shall be liable for any act or omission made
in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan.

       5.     ELIGIBILITY. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant Awards to
any Eligible Person,  whether or not he or she has previously received an Award,
except in the case of an ISO,  which can only be granted to an  Employee  of the
Company or any Subsidiary.

       6.     CONDITIONS TO GRANTS.

              (a)    GENERAL  CONDITIONS.  Awards  shall be evidenced by written
Award Agreements  specifying the number of Shares covered thereby,  in such form
as the  Committee  shall  from  time to time  establish.  Award  Agreements  may
incorporate  all or any of the terms of the Plan by  reference  and shall comply
with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:

          (i) The  Grant  Date of an  Award  shall  be the  date  on  which  the
     Committee  grants the Award or such later date as  specified  in advance by
     the Committee;

          (ii) In the case of an Award of  options,  the Option Term shall under
     no  circumstances  extend more than ten (10) years after the Grant Date and
     shall be subject to earlier termination as herein provided; and

          (iii) Any terms and  conditions  of an Award not set forth in the Plan
     shall be set forth in the Award Agreement related to that Award.

              (b)    GRANT OF  OPTIONS.  No later  than  the  Grant  Date of any
option,  the Committee shall determine the Option Price of such option.  Subject
to Section 6(c), the Option Price of an option may be the Fair Market Value of a
Share on the Grant Date or may be less than or more than that Fair Market Value.
An  option  shall be  exercisable  for  unrestricted  Shares,  unless  the Award
Agreement provides that it is exercisable for Restricted Shares.

              (c)    GRANT OF ISOS. At the time of the grant of any option,  the
Committee  may, in its  discretion,  designate  that such  option  shall be made
subject  to  additional  restrictions  to permit  the  option to  qualify  as an
"incentive  stock option" under the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. Any
option designated as an ISO:

                     (i)    shall have an Option Price that is not less than the
       Fair  Market  Value of a Share on the Grant Date and, if granted to a Ten
       Percent Owner, have an

                                       3
<PAGE>

       Option  Price  that is not less than 110% of the Fair  Market  Value of a
       Share on the Grant Date;

                     (ii)   shall  be for a  period  of not  more  than ten (10)
       years  and,  if granted to a Ten  Percent  Owner,  not more than five (5)
       years, from the Grant Date and shall be subject to earlier termination as
       provided herein or in the applicable Award Agreement;

                     (iii)  shall  meet  the  limitations  of this  subparagraph
       6(c)(iii).  If the aggregate  Fair Market Value of Shares with respect to
       which ISOs first become  exercisable  by a Grantee in any  calendar  year
       exceeds the limit determined in accordance with the provisions of Section
       422 of the Code (the "LIMIT")  taking into account  Shares subject to all
       ISOs granted by the Company that are held by the Grantee, the excess will
       be treated as  nonqualified  options.  To determine  whether the Limit is
       exceeded,  the Fair Market  Value of Shares  subject to options  shall be
       determined  as of the Grant Dates of the options.  In reducing the number
       of options treated as ISOs to meet the Limit,  the most recently  granted
       options will be reduced first. If a reduction of  simultaneously  granted
       options is necessary to meet the Limit, the Committee may designate which
       Shares are to be treated as Shares acquired pursuant to an ISO;

                     (iv)   shall be  granted  within  ten (10)  years  from the
       Effective Date;

                     (v)    shall require the Grantee to notify the Committee of
       any  disposition  of any Shares issued upon the exercise of the ISO under
       the  circumstances  described in Section  421(b) of the Code (relating to
       certain  disqualifying  dispositions,  a  "DISQUALIFYING   DISPOSITION"),
       within ten (10) business days after such Disqualifying Disposition; and

                     (vi)   unless otherwise permitted by the Code, shall by its
       terms not be assignable or transferable other than by will or the laws of
       descent  and  distribution  and may be  exercised,  during the  Grantee's
       lifetime, only by the Grantee, except that the Grantee may, in accordance
       with Section 7, designate in writing a beneficiary to exercise his or her
       ISOs after the Grantee's death.

              (d)    GRANT OF SARS.

                     (i)    When granted,  SARs may, but need not, be identified
       with  a  specific  option,   specific   Restricted  Shares,  or  specific
       Performance  Shares of the  Grantee  (including  any  option,  Restricted
       Shares, or Performance  Shares granted on or before the Grant Date of the
       SARs)  in a number  equal to or  different  from  the  number  of SARs so
       granted.  If SARs are identified  with Shares subject to an option,  with
       Restricted  Shares,  or with Performance  Shares,  then, unless otherwise
       provided in the applicable Award Agreement, the Grantee's associated SARs
       shall  terminate upon (A) the  expiration,  termination,  forfeiture,  or
       cancellation of such option, Restricted Shares or Performance Shares, (B)
       the exercise of such option or Performance  Shares,  or (C) the date such
       Restricted Shares become nonforfeitable.

                                       4
<PAGE>

                     (ii)   The  strike  price (the  "STRIKE  PRICE") of any SAR
       shall equal,  for any SAR that is identified  with an option,  the Option
       Price of such option, or for any other SAR, one hundred percent (100%) of
       the Fair  Market  Value of a Share on the Grant Date of such SAR,  except
       that the  Committee  may (A) specify a higher  Strike  Price in the Award
       Agreement  or (B) provide that the benefit  payable upon  exercise of any
       SAR shall not exceed such  percentage of the Fair Market Value of a Share
       on such Grant Date as the Committee shall specify.

              (e)    GRANT OF PERFORMANCE SHARES.

                     (i)    Before  the  grant  of   Performance   Shares,   the
       Committee shall:

                            (A)    determine objective  performance goals, which

              may  consist  of any  one or more of the  following  goals  deemed
              appropriate by the Committee: earnings (either in the aggregate or
              on a  per  share  basis),  operating  income,  cash  flow,  EBITDA
              (earnings before interest,  taxes, depreciation and amortization),
              return on equity,  indices  related to EVA (economic value added),
              per  share  rate  of  return  on  the  Common   Stock   (including
              dividends), general indices relative to levels of general customer
              service     satisfaction,     as    measured    through    various
              randomly-generated  customer service surveys, market share (in one
              or more markets),  customer  retention rates,  market  penetration
              rates,  revenues,  reductions in expense levels, the attainment by
              the  Common  Stock of a  specified  market  value for a  specified
              period  of time,  and any other  object  performance  goal  deemed
              appropriate by the Committee,  in each case where applicable to be
              determined either on a company-wide basis,  individual basis or in
              respect  of any one or more  business  units,  and the  amount  of
              compensation under the goals applicable to such grant;

                            (B)    designate a period for the measurement of the
              extent to which  performance  goals are attained,  which may begin
              simultaneously  with,  prior to or  following  the Grant Date (the
              "PERFORMANCE PERIOD"); and

                            (C)    assign a performance percentage to each level
              of attainment of performance goals during the Performance  Period,
              with the percentage  applicable to minimum  attainment  being zero
              percent and the percentage  applicable to maximum attainment to be
              determined  by the Committee  from time to time (the  "PERFORMANCE
              PERCENTAGE").

                     (ii)   If a Grantee is promoted, demoted, or transferred to
       a different  business unit of the Company  during a  Performance  Period,
       then,  to the  extent  the  Committee  determines  any one or more of the
       performance goals,  Performance  Period or Performance  Percentage are no
       longer  appropriate,  the  Committee  may make any changes  thereto as it
       deems appropriate in order to make them appropriate.

                     (iii)  When granted,  Performance Shares may, but need not,
       be  identified  with  Shares  subject  to  a  specific  option,  specific
       Restricted  Shares or specific SARs of the Grantee granted under the Plan
       in a number  equal to or  different  from the

                                       5
<PAGE>

       number of the Performance Shares so granted. If Performance Shares are so
       identified,  then,  unless  otherwise  provided in the  applicable  Award
       Agreement,  the Grantee's  associated  Performance Shares shall terminate
       upon (A) the expiration,  termination,  forfeiture or cancellation of the
       option,  Restricted Shares or SARs with which the Performance  Shares are
       identified,  (B) the  exercise  of such  option or SARs,  or (C) the date
       Restricted Shares become nonforfeitable.

              (f)    GRANT OF RESTRICTED SHARES.

                     (i)    The Committee  shall  determine the amount,  if any,
       that a Grantee shall pay for Restricted Shares,  subject to the following
       sentence.  The  Committee  shall  require the Grantee to pay at least the
       Minimum  Consideration  for each Restricted  Share. Such payment shall be
       made in full by the Grantee  before the delivery of the shares and in any
       event no later than ten (10)  business  days after the Grant Date. In the
       discretion of the Committee and to the extent  permitted by law,  payment
       may also be made in accordance with Section 9.

                     (ii)   The Committee may, but need not, provide that all or
       any  portion of a  Grantee's  Restricted  Shares,  or  Restricted  Shares
       acquired upon exercise of an option, shall be forfeited:

                            (A)    except as otherwise  specified in the Plan or
              the Award Agreement,  upon the Grantee's termination of employment
              within a specified time period after the Grant Date; or

                            (B)    if  the  Company  or  the  Grantee  does  not
              achieve  specified  performance  goals (if any) within a specified
              time  period  after  the  Grant  Date  and  before  the  Grantee's
              termination of employment; or

                            (C)    upon failure to satisfy such other conditions
              as the Committee may specify in the Award Agreement.

                     (iii)  If  Restricted  Shares are forfeited and the Grantee
       was required to pay for such shares or acquired  such  Restricted  Shares
       upon the  exercise  of an  option,  the  Grantee  shall be deemed to have
       resold  such  Restricted  Shares to the  Company at a price  equal to the
       lesser of (A) the amount paid by the Grantee for such  Restricted  Shares
       or (B) the Fair  Market  Value of the  Restricted  Shares  on the date of
       forfeiture,  which  shall  be  paid  to the  Grantee  in  cash as soon as
       administratively  practicable.  Such Restricted  Shares shall cease to be
       outstanding  and shall no longer confer on the Grantee thereof any rights
       as a  shareholder  of the  Company,  from and after the date of the event
       causing the forfeiture,  whether or not the Grantee accepts the Company's
       tender of payment for such Restricted Shares.

                     (iv)   The Committee may provide that the  certificates for
       any  Restricted  Shares (A) shall be held  (together  with a stock  power
       executed  in blank by the  Grantee)  in  escrow by the  Secretary  of the
       Company  until  such  Restricted  Shares  become  nonforfeitable  or  are
       forfeited  or (B)  shall  bear  an  appropriate  legend  restricting  the

                                       6
<PAGE>

       transfer of such  Restricted  Shares.  If any  Restricted  Shares  become
       nonforfeitable,  the Company shall cause  certificates for such shares to
       be issued without such legend.

                     (v)    At the time of a grant  of  Restricted  Shares,  the
       Committee  may  require  the  payment  of cash  dividends  thereon  to be
       deferred  and, if the Committee so  determines,  reinvested in additional
       Restricted Shares. Stock dividends or deferred cash dividends issued with
       respect to  Restricted  Shares shall be subject to the same  restrictions
       and other terms as apply to the  Restricted  Shares with respect to which
       such dividends are issued.  The Committee may in its  discretion  provide
       for payment of interest on deferred cash dividends.

          (g) GRANT OF STOCK  BONUSES.  The  Committee may grant Bonus Shares to
     any Eligible Employee.

       7.     NON-TRANSFERABILITY.  An  Award  granted  hereunder  shall  not be
assignable  or  transferable  other  than  by will or the  laws of  descent  and
distribution  and may be exercised  during the  Grantee's  lifetime  only by the
Grantee or his or her guardian or legal representative,  except that, subject to
Section 6(c) in respect of ISOs,  a Grantee may, if permitted by the  Committee,
in its  discretion,  (a) designate in writing a beneficiary to exercise an Award
after his or her death (if that  designation  has been  received  by the Company
prior to the Grantee's  death) and (b) transfer the Award to one or more members
of the Grantee's Immediate Family or any other individuals or entities.

       8.     EXERCISE.

              (a)    EXERCISE OF OPTIONS.

                     (i)    Subject  to  Section  6, each  option  shall  become
       exercisable  at such time or times as may be specified  by the  Committee
       from time to time in the applicable Award Agreement.

                     (ii)   An option  shall be exercised by the delivery to the
       Company  during  the  Option  Term of (A) a  written  notice of intent to
       purchase a specific  number of Shares subject to the option in accordance
       with the terms of the  option by the  person  entitled  to  exercise  the
       option  and (B)  payment  in full of the  Option  Price of such  specific
       number of Shares in accordance with Section 8(a)(iii).

                     (iii)  Payment of the  Option  Price may be made by any one
       or more of the following means:

                            (A)    cash, check, or wire transfer;

                            (B)    with the  approval of the  Committee,  Mature
              Shares, valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise;

                                       7
<PAGE>

                            (C)    with   the   approval   of   the   Committee,
              Restricted  Shares held by the Grantee for at least six (6) months
              prior to the exercise of the option, each such share valued at the
              Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise;

                            (D)    so  long  as the  Company  remains  a  Public
              Company, in accordance with procedures  previously approved by the
              Company,  through  the sale of the Shares  acquired on exercise of
              the option through a bank or broker-dealer to whom the Grantee has
              submitted  an  irrevocable  notice  of  exercise  and  irrevocable
              instructions to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale
              or loan proceeds sufficient to pay for such Shares, together with,
              if requested by the Company,  the amount of federal,  state, local
              or foreign  withholding taxes payable by Grantee by reason of such
              exercise; or

                            (E)    in the discretion of the  Committee,  payment
              may also be made in accordance with Section 9.

                            (F)    with the  approval of the  Committee,  in any
              combination  of the  foregoing or such other manner  determined by
              the Committee.

The Committee may in its discretion  specify that, if any Restricted  Shares are
used to pay the Option Price ("TENDERED RESTRICTED SHARES"),  (A) all the Shares
acquired on exercise of the option shall be subject to the same  restrictions as
the Tendered  Restricted  Shares,  determined  as of the date of exercise of the
option or (B) a number of Shares acquired on exercise of the option equal to the
number of Tendered  Restricted  Shares shall be subject to the same restrictions
as the Tendered Restricted Shares,  determined as of the date of exercise of the
option.

              (b)    EXERCISE OF SARS.

                     (i)    Subject to Section 6(d), (A) each SAR not identified
       with any other Award shall  become  exercisable  at such time or times as
       may be specified  by the  Committee  from time to time in the  applicable
       Award  Agreement and (B) except as otherwise  provided in the  applicable
       Award Agreement,  each SAR which is identified with any other Award shall
       become  exercisable  as and to the extent  that the option or  Restricted
       Shares  with which such SAR is  identified  may be  exercised  or becomes
       nonforfeitable, as the case may be.

                     (ii)   SARs shall be  exercised  by delivery to the Company
       of written notice of intent to exercise a specific number of SARs. Unless
       otherwise  provided in the applicable  Award  Agreement,  the exercise of
       SARs that are  identified  with Shares subject to an option or Restricted
       Shares shall result in the  cancellation  or forfeiture of such option or
       Restricted Shares, as the case may be, to the extent of such exercise.

                     (iii)  The benefit for each SAR exercised shall be equal to
       (A) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of such exercise,  minus
       (B) the Strike Price specified in such SAR. Such benefit shall be payable
       in cash,  except that the  Committee  may provide in the Award  Agreement
       that benefits may be paid wholly or partly in Shares.

                                       8

              (c)    PAYMENT OF PERFORMANCE SHARES. Unless otherwise provided in
the Award  Agreement  with  respect to an Award of  Performance  Shares,  if the
minimum  performance  goals  applicable  to such  Performance  Shares  have been
achieved during the applicable Performance Period, then the Company shall pay to
the Grantee of such Award that number of Shares equal to the product of:

                     (i)    the  sum  of  (A)  number  of   Performance   Shares
       specified  in the  applicable  Award  Agreement  and  (B) the  number  of
       additional  Shares  that would  have been  issuable  if such  Performance
       Shares had been Shares outstanding  throughout the Performance Period and
       the stock dividends,  cash dividends (except as otherwise provided in the
       Award  Agreement),  and other property paid in respect of such Shares had
       been  reinvested in additional  Shares as of each dividend  payment date,
       multiplied by

                     (ii)   the  Performance  Percentage  achieved  during  such
       Performance Period.

The Committee  may, in its  discretion,  determine  that cash be paid in lieu of
some or all of such Shares.  The amount of cash payable in lieu of a Share shall
be determined by valuing such Share at its Fair Market Value on the business day
immediately  preceding  the date such cash is to be paid.  Payments  pursuant to
this Section 8 shall be made as soon as administratively practical after the end
of the applicable  Performance  Period.  Any Performance  Shares with respect to
which the  performance  goals  shall not have  been  achieved  by the end of the
applicable Performance Period shall expire.

       9.     LOANS.  The  Committee  may in its  discretion  allow a Grantee to
defer payment to the Company of all or any portion of (a) the Option Price of an
option, (b) the purchase price of Restricted Shares, or (c) any taxes associated
with the  exercise,  nonforfeitability  of, or payment of benefits in connection
with, an Award.  Any such payment deferral by the Company shall be on such terms
and conditions as the Committee may  determine,  except that a Grantee shall not
be entitled to defer the payment of such Option Price,  purchase  price,  or any
related taxes unless the Grantee (a) enters into a binding obligation to pay the
deferred  amount and (b) other than with respect to treasury  shares,  pays upon
exercise of an option or grant of Restricted Shares, as applicable, an amount at
least  equal  to  the  Minimum  Consideration  therefor.  If the  Committee  has
permitted  a  payment  deferral  in  accordance  with this  Section  9, then the
Committee  may require the immediate  payment of such  deferred  amount upon the
Grantee's  termination  of  employment  or if the  Grantee  sells  or  otherwise
transfers his or her Shares purchased  pursuant to such deferral.  The Committee
may at any time in its  discretion  forgive the  repayment  of any or all of the
principal of, or interest on, any such deferred payment obligation.

       10.    NOTIFICATION  UNDER SECTION 83(b).  If the Grantee,  in connection
with the  exercise of any option or the grant of  Restricted  Shares,  makes the
election  permitted under Section 83(b) of the Code to include in such Grantee's
gross income in the year of transfer the amounts  specified in Section  83(b) of
the Code,  then such  Grantee  shall  notify the  Company,  in writing,  of such
election  within ten (10) days after filing the notice of the election  with the
Internal  Revenue Service,  in addition to any filing and notification  required
pursuant to  regulations  issued under Section 83(b) of the Code.  The Committee
may,  in  connection  with the  grant  of an  Award  or at any time  thereafter,
prohibit a Grantee from making the election described in this Section 10.

       11.    MANDATORY TAX WITHHOLDING.

              (a)    Whenever  under the Plan,  Shares are to be delivered  upon
exercise   or  payment  of  an  Award  or  upon   Restricted   Shares   becoming
nonforfeitable,  or  any  other  event  with  respect  to  rights  and  benefits
hereunder,  the Company  shall be entitled to require (i) that the Grantee remit
an amount in cash,  or in the Company's  discretion,  Mature Shares or any other
form of  consideration,  sufficient to satisfy all federal,  state and local tax
withholding  requirements  related thereto  ("REQUIRED  WITHHOLDING"),  (ii) the
withholding of such Required Withholding from compensation  otherwise due to the
Grantee  or from any  Shares  due to the  Grantee  under the Plan,  or (iii) any
combination of the foregoing.

              (b)    Any Grantee  who makes a  Disqualifying  Disposition  or an
election  under  Section  83(b) of the Code shall remit to the Company an amount
sufficient to satisfy all resulting Required Withholding, except that in lieu of
or in addition to the  foregoing,  the Company  shall have the right to withhold
such Required Withholding from compensation otherwise due to the Grantee or from
any Shares or other payment due to the Grantee under the Plan.

              (c)    Any surrender by a Section 16 Grantee of  previously  owned
shares of Common Stock to satisfy tax  withholding  arising upon exercise of the
Award must comply with the applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3(e) under the 1934
Act.

       12.    ELECTIVE SHARE WITHHOLDING. At the Company's discretion, a Grantee
may,  with the prior  consent of the  Committee,  elect the  withholding  by the
Company of a portion of the Shares  otherwise  deliverable  to such Grantee upon
the  exercise  of an Award or upon  Restricted  Shares  becoming  nonforfeitable
(each, a "TAXABLE EVENT") having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount
necessary  to satisfy the Required  Withholding  liability  attributable  to the
Taxable Event.

       13.    TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

              (a)    FOR CAUSE. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee in
an Award Agreement,  if a Grantee's  employment is terminated for Cause, (i) the
Grantee's  Restricted  Shares (and any SARs identified  therewith) that are then
forfeitable  shall on the date of the  Grantee's  termination  of  employment be
forfeited on such date, subject to the provisions of Section 6(f)(iii) regarding
repayment of certain amounts to the Grantee;  and (ii) any  unexercised  option,
SAR or  Performance  Share  shall  terminate  effective  immediately  upon  such
termination of employment.

              (b)    ON ACCOUNT OF DEATH.  Except as  otherwise  provided by the
Committee  in the Award  Agreement,  if a  Grantee's  employment  terminates  on
account of death, then:

                     (i)    the  Grantee's   Restricted  Shares  (and  any  SARs
       identified  therewith) that are then forfeitable shall on the date of the
       Grantee's termination of employment be forfeited on such date;

                                       10
<PAGE>

                     (ii)   any  unexercised   option  or  SAR,  to  the  extent
       exercisable  on the  date  of  such  termination  of  employment,  may be
       exercised, in whole or in part, within the first twelve (12) months after
       such  termination  of employment  (but only during the Option Term) after
       the death of the Grantee by (A) his or her personal  representative or by
       the person to whom the option or SAR, as  applicable,  is  transferred by
       will  or the  applicable  laws  of  descent  and  distribution,  (B)  the
       Grantee's designated beneficiary, or (C) a Permitted Transferee; and

                     (iii)  any unexercised  Performance Shares may be exercised
       in  whole or in  part,  at any time  within  six (6)  months  after  such
       termination of employment on account of the death of the Grantee,  by (A)
       his  or  her  personal  representative  or by  the  person  to  whom  the
       Performance  Shares are  transferred  by will or the  applicable  laws of
       descent and distribution,  (B) the Grantee's designated  beneficiary,  or
       (C) a Permitted Transferee,  except that the benefit payable with respect
       to any Performance  Shares for which the Performance Period has not ended
       as of the date of such  termination  of  employment  on  account of death
       shall be equal to the  product of Fair Market  Value of such  Performance
       Shares multiplied successively by each of the following:

                            (A)    a  fraction,  the  numerator  of which is the
              number of months  (including  as a whole month any partial  month)
              that has elapsed  since the beginning of such  Performance  Period
              until  the  date  of  such   termination  of  employment  and  the
              denominator of which is the number of months (including as a whole
              month any partial month) in the Performance Period; and

                            (B)    a percentage  determined in the discretion of
              the  Committee  that  would  be  earned  under  the  terms  of the
              applicable  Award  Agreement  assuming  that the rate at which the
              performance  goals  have  been  achieved  as of the  date  of such
              termination  of  employment  would  continue  until the end of the
              Performance  Period,  or, if the  Committee  elects to compute the
              benefit after the end of the Performance  Period,  the Performance
              Percentage,  as determined by the Committee,  attained  during the
              Performance Period for such Performance Shares.

              (c)    ON ACCOUNT OF DISABILITY.  Except as otherwise  provided by
the Committee in the Award Agreement,  if a Grantee's  employment  terminates on
account of Disability, then:

                     (i)    the  Grantee's   Restricted  Shares  (and  any  SARs
       identified  therewith) that are then forfeitable shall on the date of the
       Grantee's termination of employment be forfeited on such date;

                     (ii)   any  unexercised   option  or  SAR,  to  the  extent
       exercisable  on the  date  of  such  termination  of  employment,  may be
       exercised in whole or in part,  within the first twelve (12) months after
       such  termination of employment  (but only during the Option Term) by the
       Grantee, or by (A) his or her personal representative or by the person to
       whom the option or SAR,  as  applicable,  is  transferred  by will or the
       applicable laws of descent and distribution, (B) the Grantee's designated
       beneficiary, or (C) a Permitted Transferee; and

                                       11
<PAGE>

                     (iii)  any unexercised  Performance Shares may be exercised
       in  whole or in  part,  at any time  within  six (6)  months  after  such
       termination of employment on account of Disability by the Grantee,  or by
       (A) his personal  representative or by the person to whom the Performance
       Shares are  transferred  by will or the  applicable  laws of descent  and
       distribution,   (B)  the  Grantee's  designated  beneficiary,  or  (C)  a
       Permitted Transferee, except that the benefit payable with respect to any
       Performance  Shares for which the Performance  Period has not ended as of
       the date of such termination of employment on account of Disability shall
       be  equal to the  product  of the Fair  Market  Value of the  Performance
       Shares multiplied successively by each of the following:

                            (A)    a  fraction,  the  numerator  of which is the
              number of months  (including  as a whole month any partial  month)
              that have elapsed since the beginning of such  Performance  Period
              until  the  date  of  such   termination  of  employment  and  the
              denominator of which is the number of months (including as a whole
              month any partial month) in the Performance Period; and

                            (B)    a percentage  determined in the discretion of
              the  Committee  that  would  be  earned  under  the  terms  of the
              applicable  Award  Agreement  assuming  that the rate at which the
              performance  goals  have  been  achieved  as of the  date  of such
              termination  of  employment  would  continue  until the end of the
              Performance  Period,  or, if the  Committee  elects to compute the
              benefit after the end of the Performance  Period,  the Performance
              Percentage,  as determined by the Committee,  attained  during the
              Performance Period for such Performance Shares.

              (d)    ANY  REASON  OTHER THAN FOR CAUSE OR ON ACCOUNT OF DEATH OR
DISABILITY.  Except  as  otherwise  provided  by  the  Committee  in  the  Award
Agreement,  if a Grantee's  employment  terminates for any reason other than for
Cause, or on account of death or Disability,  then:

                        (i)  the  Grantee's  Restricted  Shares  (and  any  SARs
            identified  therewith),  that are then forfeitable shall on the date
            of the  Grantee's  termination  of  employment  be forfeited on such
            date;

                        (ii) any  unexercised  option or SAR  (other  than a SAR
            identified  with a Restricted  Share or Performance  Share),  to the
            extent exercisable  immediately before the Grantee's  termination of
            employment,  may be  exercised  in whole or in part,  not later than
            three (3) months  after such  termination  of  employment  (but only
            during the Option Term); and

                        (iii) the  Grantee's  Performance  Shares  (and any SARs
            identified  therewith)  shall terminate  effective  immediately upon
            such termination of employment.

       14.    SUBSTITUTED  AWARDS.  If the Committee  cancels any Award (whether
granted  under the Plan or any plan of any entity  acquired  by the Company or a
Subsidiary),  the  Committee  may,  in its  discretion,  substitute  a new Award
therefor  upon  such  terms  and  conditions  consistent  with  the  Plan as the
Committee may determine, except that (a) the Option Price of any new option, and
the  Strike  Price of any new SAR,  shall not be less than one  hundred  percent
(100%) (one hundred ten percent (110%) in the case of an incentive  stock option
granted to a Ten Percent

                                       12
<PAGE>

Owner) of the Fair  Market  Value of a Share on the date of the grant of the new
Award;  and (b) the Grant Date of the new Award  shall be the date on which such
new Award is granted.

       15     SECURITIES LAW MATTERS.

              (a)    If  the  Committee  deems  necessary  to  comply  with  any
applicable securities law, the Committee may require a written investment intent
representation  by the  Grantee  and may require  that a  restrictive  legend be
affixed to certificates for Shares.  If, based upon the advice of counsel to the
Company, the Committee determines that the exercise or nonforfeitability  of, or
delivery  of  benefits  pursuant  to, any Award  would  violate  any  applicable
provision  of  (i)  federal  or  state  securities  laws  or  (ii)  the  listing
requirements  of any national  exchange or national  market  system on which are
listed any of the Company's equity  securities,  then the Committee may postpone
any such exercise, nonforfeitability or delivery, as applicable, but the Company
shall use all reasonable  efforts to cause such exercise,  nonforfeitability  or
delivery to comply with all such provisions at the earliest practicable date.

              (b)    Grants of options to Section 16 Grantees  shall comply with
Rule 16b-3 and shall contain such  additional  conditions or restrictions as may
be required  thereunder  for such grants to qualify for exemption from liability
under Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act.

       16.    NO EMPLOYMENT  RIGHTS.  Neither the  establishment of the Plan nor
the grant of any Award shall (a) give any  Grantee the right to remain  employed
by the Company or any Subsidiary or to any benefits not specifically provided by
the Plan or (b) modify the right of the  Company  or any  Subsidiary  to modify,
amend,  or terminate the Plan or any other  employee  benefit plan or employment
agreement.

       17.    NO RIGHTS AS A SHAREHOLDER. A Grantee shall not have any rights as
a shareholder  of the Company with respect to the Shares (other than  Restricted
Shares) which may be deliverable upon exercise or payment of an Award until such
Shares have been delivered to him or her.  Restricted Shares,  whether held by a
Grantee or in escrow by the Company, shall confer on the Grantee all rights of a
shareholder  of the  Company,  except  as  otherwise  provided  in the  Plan  or
applicable Award Agreement.

       18.    NATURE OF PAYMENTS.  Awards shall be special incentive payments to
the  Grantee  and shall not be taken  into  account in  computing  the amount of
salary or  compensation  of the Grantee for purposes of determining any pension,
retirement,   death  or  other  benefit  under  (a)  any  pension,   retirement,
profit-sharing,  bonus,  insurance or other employee benefit plan of the Company
or any Subsidiary or (b) any agreement between (i) the Company or any Subsidiary
and (ii) the Grantee, except as such plan or agreement shall otherwise expressly
provide.

       19.    NON-UNIFORM  DETERMINATIONS.  The Committee's determinations under
the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by the Committee  selectively among
persons who  receive,  or are eligible to receive,  Awards,  whether or not such
persons  are  similarly  situated.   Without  limiting  the  generality  of  the
foregoing,  the  Committee  shall be  entitled  to enter  into  non-uniform  and
selective Award Agreements as to (a) the identity of the Grantees, (b) the terms
and provisions of Awards, including,  without limitation,  vesting and manner of
payment of purchase price upon exercise,  and (c) the treatment of  terminations
of employment.

                                       13
<PAGE>

       20.    ADJUSTMENTS. The Committee shall make equitable adjustment of:

              (a)    the aggregate number of Shares available under the Plan for
Awards and the aggregate number of Shares for which Awards may be granted to any
individual  Grantee in any  calendar  year  pursuant  to the second  sentence of
Section 2;

              (b)    the number of Shares, SARs or Performance Shares covered by
an Award; and

              (c)    the Option Price of all outstanding  options and the Strike
Price of all outstanding SARs;

to  reflect  a  stock  dividend,   stock  split,   reverse  stock  split,  share
combination,   recapitalization,  merger,  consolidation,  spin-off,  split-off,
reorganization,  rights  offering,  liquidation  or  similar  event of or by the
Company.

       21.    AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. The Committee may from time to time, in its
discretion,  amend the Plan without the approval of the Company's  shareholders,
except  (a) as such  shareholder  approval  may be  required  under the  listing
requirements  of any securities  exchange or national market system on which are
listed  the  Company's  equity  securities  and (b) that the  Committee  may not
without the approval of the  Company's  shareholders  amend the Plan to increase
the total number of shares  reserved for the purposes of the Plan (other than in
accordance with Section 20).

       22.    TERMINATION  OF THE PLAN.  The Plan shall continue in effect until
the earlier of its  termination by the Committee or the date on which all of the
shares of Common Stock  available  for issuance  under the Plan have been issued
and all  restrictions  on such  shares  under  the  terms  of the  Plan  and the
agreements  evidencing Awards granted under the Plan have lapsed.  However,  all
Awards  shall be granted,  if at all,  within ten (10) years from the earlier of
the date  the  Plan is  adopted  by the  Committee  or the date the Plan is duly
approved by the shareholders of the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  if
the maximum number of shares of Common Stock  issuable  pursuant to the Plan has
been  increased at any time,  all Awards  shall be granted,  if at all, no later
than the last day preceding the ten (10) year  anniversary of the earlier of (a)
the date on which the latest such  increase  in the maximum  number of shares of
Common Stock  issuable  under the Plan was approved by the  shareholders  of the
Company  or (b) the  date  such  amendment  was  adopted  by the  Committee.  No
termination shall affect any Award then outstanding under the Plan.

       23.    NO ILLEGAL TRANSACTIONS.  The Plan and all Awards granted pursuant
to it are subject to all applicable laws and  regulations.  Notwithstanding  any
provision of the Plan or any Award,  Grantees shall not be entitled to exercise,
