Dear Stephanie:
The Board of Directors of International Cosmetics Marketing, Inc. (the
"Corporation") is pleased to award you an Option pursuant to the provisions of
the 1997 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). This letter will describe the Option
granted to you. Attached to this letter is a copy of the Plan. The terms of the
Plan also set forth provisions governing the Option granted to you. Therefore,
in addition to reading this letter you should also read the Plan. Your signature
on this letter is an acknowledgment to us that you have read and under-stand the
Plan and that you agree to abide by its terms. All terms not defined in this
letter shall have the same meaning as in the Plan.
1. Type of Option. You are granted an ISO. Please see in particular
Section 11 of the Plan.
2. Rights and Privileges. Subject to the conditions hereinafter set
forth, we grant you the right to purchase 100,000 shares of Stock at $2.50 per
share, the current fair market value of a share of Stock.
3. Vesting and Time of Exercise. The options shall vest, subject to the
continued employment of Employee, as follows: (a) 50,000 options on August 19,
2001 and 50,000 Options on August 19, 2002. The Options shall be exercisable for

5. Termination of Option. To the extent not exercised, the Option shall
terminate upon the first to occur of the following dates:
(a) 50,000 Options on June 29, 2006 and 50,000 Options on June 29,
2007, being five (5) years from the date of vesting pursuant to the provisions
of Section 3 of this Agreement; or
(b) The expiration of thirty (30) days following the date your
employment terminates with the Corporation and any of its subsidiaries included
in the Plan for any reason, other than by reason of death or permanent
disability. As used herein, "permanent disability" means your inability to
engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically
determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in
death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of
not less than 12 months; or
(c) The expiration of 12 months following the date your employment
terminates with the Corporation and any of its subsidiaries included in the

6. Securities Laws. The Option and the shares of Stock underlying the
Option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Act"). The Corporation has no obligations to ever register the Option or
the shares of Stock underlying the Option. All shares of Stock acquired upon the
exercise of the Option shall be "restricted securities" as that term is defined
in Rule 144 promulgated under the Act. The certificate representing the shares
shall bear an appropriate legend restricting their transfer. Such shares cannot
be sold, transferred, assigned or otherwise hypothecated without registration
under the Act or unless a valid exemption from registration is then available
under applicable federal and state securities laws and the Corporation has been
furnished with an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and substance to the
Corporation that such registration is not required.
7. Binding Effect. The rights and obligations described in this letter
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon both of us, and our respective
heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
