                  (c)      Restrictions on Exercise.  This Option may not be
exercised for a fraction of a Share.

                  (d)      Effect of Exercise.  Exercise of this Option in any
manner shall result in a decrease in the number of Shares  which  thereafter
may be  available  for sale under this Option by the number of Shares as to
which this Option is exercised.

         6.       No Rights  as  Stockholder.  Until  this  Option  is  properly
exercised in whole or in part in accordance  with the terms of Section 5 hereof,
no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall
exist with  respect to the Optioned  Stock.  No  adjustment  shall be made for a
dividend  or other  right for which  the  record  date is prior to the date this
Option is exercised, except as provided in Section 10 hereof.

         7.       Delivery of Share  Certificates.  As soon as practicable after
any proper exercise of this Option, the Company shall, without transfer or issue
tax to the Optionee,  deliver to the Optionee at the principal  executive office
of the Company or such other place as shall be mutually  agreed upon between the
Company and the Optionee, a certificate or certificates  representing the Shares
for which  this  Option  shall have been  exercised.  The time of  issuance  and
delivery  of the  certificate(s)  representing  the Shares for which this Option
shall have been exercised may be postponed by the Company for such period as may
be  required  by the  Company,  with  reasonable  diligence,  to comply with any
applicable listing  requirements of any national or regional securities exchange
or any law or regulation applicable to the issuance or delivery of such Shares.

         8.       Termination of Option. To the extent that the Optionee was not
entitled to exercise  this Option at the date of  termination,  or to the extent
this Option is not exercised within the time specified herein, this Option shall
terminate.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  this Option shall not be exercisable
after the expiration of the term set forth in Section 3 hereof.

         9.       Nontransferability  of  Option.  This  Option may not be sold,
pledged,  assigned,  hypothecated,  gifted,  transferred  or  disposed of in any
manner either  voluntarily or  involuntarily  by operation of law, other than by
will or by the laws of descent or distribution,  and may be exercised during the
lifetime of the Optionee only by the  Optionee.  Subject to the  foregoing,  the
terms of this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs,
successors and assigns of the Optionee.

         10.      Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization.

                  (a)      Subject to any required action by the stockholders of
the Company, the number of Shares covered by this Option, as well as the
exercise price per Share of the Shares  covered  by this  Option,  shall  be
proportionately  adjusted  for any increase or decrease in the number of issued
shares of Common  Stock  resulting from a stock split or  combination  or the
payment of a stock dividend (but only on the Common  Stock) or any other
increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected
without receipt of consideration by the Company (other than stock bonuses to
employees or directors); provided, however, that the conversion of any
convertible securities of the

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

Company shall not be deemed to have been effected without the receipt of
consideration.  Such adjustment shall be made by the Board, whose determination
in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive.  Except as expressly
provided herein, no issuances by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or
securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no
adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price
of Shares subject to this Option.

                  (b)      In the event of the proposed dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, or in the event of a proposed  sale of all or
substantially  all of the assets of the Company  (other  than in the  ordinary
course of  business),  or the  merger or consolidation  of the Company  with or
into another  corporation  as a result of which the Company is not the surviving
and  controlling  corporation,  the Board shall (i) make  provision  for the
assumption  of this Option by the  successor corporation or (ii) declare that
this Option shall  terminate as of a date fixed by the Board which is at least
30 days after the notice  thereof to the Optionee and shall give the Optionee
the right to exercise  this Option as to all or any part of the Optioned  Stock,
including  Shares as to which the Option would not otherwise be  exercisable,
provided such  exercise  does not violate  Section 5 hereof.

                  (c)      No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be
issuable on account of any action  aforesaid,  and the  aggregate  number of
shares into which  Shares then covered by this  Option,  when  changed as the
result of such  action,  shall be reduced shall be the largest number of whole
shares  resulting from such action, unless  the  Board,  in its sole
discretion,  shall  determine  to issue  scrip certificates in respect to any
fractional shares,  which scrip certificates,  in such event,  shall be in a
form and have such terms and  conditions as the Board in its discretion shall
prescribe.

         11.      Reservation of Shares.  The Company  covenants and agrees that
during the term of this Option the Company will at all times have authorized and
reserved for the purpose of the issue upon  exercise of this Option at least the
maximum  number of shares of Common  Stock  issuable  upon the  exercise of this
Option.

         12.      Continuation of Employment.  This Option shall not confer upon
the Optionee any right to be employed by or continue in the employment of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

         13.      Withholding.  The Company  reserves the right to withhold,
in accordance with any applicable laws, from any consideration  payable to
Optionee any taxes required to be withheld by federal,  state or local law as a
result of the grant or  exercise of this  Option or the sale or other
disposition  of the Shares issued upon exercise of this Option.  If the amount
of any  consideration payable to the Optionee is insufficient to pay such taxes
or if no consideration is payable to the Optionee,  upon the request of the
Company, the Optionee shall pay to the Company an amount  sufficient for the
Company to satisfy any federal, state or local  tax  withholding  requirements
it may  incur as a result of the grant or exercise of this Option or the sale or
other  disposition of the Shares issued upon the exercise of this Option.

         14.      Common Stock Subject to Registration Rights.  All Eligible
Common Stock will cease to be Eligible Common Stock when (i) a Registration
Statement covering such Eligible Common Stock has been  declared  effective by
the SEC and such  Eligible  Common Stock has been

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

disposed of pursuant to such effective  Registration  Statement, (ii) it is
distributed  to the  public pursuant  to Rule  144 (or any  similar provision
then in force) under the Securities Act or (iii) it has otherwise been
transferred  and  it  may  be resold  by  such  transferee  without  subsequent
registration under the Securities Act and without restriction under Rule 144.

         15.      Registration Rights.

                  (a)      At any time after the Optionee shall have exercised
his right to acquire Optioned  Stock  as  provided  in  Section  5 and up  until
and  including  the Termination  Date,  the Optionee  shall have the right to
make written  requests (each a "Demand") on the Company to cause the Company to
use its best reasonable efforts to effect the filing of a  Registration
Statement  with  respect to the Eligible  Common  Stock.  Each  Demand  shall
set forth the  number of shares of Eligible Common Stock proposed to be sold by
the Optionee.

                  (b)      At any time on or after the first anniversary of the
Grant Date up until and including the  Termination  Date, if the Company shall
have filed a Registration Statement  covering any of its Common  Stock,  and
such  Registration  Statement shall be effective  under the  Securities  Act,
the Company  shall use its best reasonable  efforts to effect the  registration
of the Eligible Common Stock by including such Eligible Common Stock in such
Registration Statement.

                  (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation at its
own initiative may cause a  Registration  Statement  on Form S-8 to be filed
with the SEC with respect to the Optioned Stock.

         16.      Registration  Procedures.  In  connection  with the  Company's
registration obligations pursuant to Section 15 hereof, the Company will use its
best reasonable  efforts to effect the registration of the Eligible Common Stock
in accordance with the intended method or methods or distribution  thereof,  and
pursuant thereto to the Company shall:

                  (a)      prepare and file with SEC, as soon as practicable
after receipt of a Demand, a Registration  Statement  relating to the  Eligible
Common Stock with respect to which a Demand has been  received  in  accordance
with the  intended  method or methods of distribution  thereof and shall include
all financial  statements and other  information  required by the SEC to be
filed therewith,  and use its best reasonable efforts to cause such Registration
Statement to become effective;

                  (b)      prepare and file with the SEC such amendments to the
Registration Statement as may be  necessary  to keep the  Registration
Statement  effective  until the distribution  of the Eligible Common Stock under
the  Registration  Statement is complete;  cause the Prospectus to be
supplemented  by any required  prospectus supplement; and comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
securities covered by such Registration Statement;

                  (c)      notify the Optionee promptly (i) when the
Registration Statement has become effective and when any  post-effective
amendment or supplement  thereto becomes effective and (ii) of the issuance by
the SEC of any stop order  suspending  the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement;  (iii) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect
to the suspension of

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

the  qualification of the Eligible Common Stock for sale in
any  jurisdiction  or the  initiation or  threatening of any proceeding for such
purpose and (iv) of the happening of any event which makes any statement made in
the Registration Statement untrue or which requires the making of any changes in
the  Registration  Statement  or the  Prospectus  or any  document  incorporated
therein by reference to make the statements therein not misleading;

                  (d)      make reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of
any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement at the
earliest possible time:

                  (e)      deliver to the Optionee as many copies of the
Prospectus and any amendment or  supplement  thereto as the  Optionee  may
reasonably  request;  the Company consents to the use of the Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement  thereto by the Optionee in  connection  with the
offering and sale of the Eligible  Common Stock covered by the Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto;

                  (f)      prior to any public offering of Eligible Common
Stock, make reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate  with the
Optionee,  in connection  with the registration or  qualification  of such
Eligible Common Stock for offer and sale under the  securities  or blue sky laws
of such  jurisdictions  as the  Optionee reasonably requests in writing and do
any and all other acts or things necessary or  advisable  to enable the
Optionee to  consummate  the  disposition  in such jurisdictions   of  the
Eligible  Common  Stock  covered  by  the  Registration Statement;  provided
that the  Company  will  not be  required  to (i)  qualify generally to do
business in any jurisdiction  where it is not then so qualified; (ii)  subject
itself to  taxation in any such  jurisdiction;  or (iii) take any action  which
would  subject  it to  general  service  of  process  in any such jurisdiction
where it is not then so subject;

                  (g)      cooperate with the Optionee and the managing
underwriters, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates
representing the Eligible Common Stock to be sold and not  bearing  any
restrictive  legends;  and  enable  such Eligible Common Stock to be in such
denominations  and registered in such names as the Optionee may request at least
two business  days prior to any sale of the Eligible Common Stock;

                  (h)      as promptly as practicable following the occurrence
of any event contemplated by Section 16(c)(iv) hereof,  make reasonable efforts
to prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration
Statement or the related Prospectus or any document  incorporated  therein by
reference or file any other  required document so that,  as  thereafter
delivered to the  purchasers  of the Eligible Common Stock,  the Prospectus will
not contain an untrue statement or a material fact or omit to state  any
material  fact  required  to be  stated  therein  or necessary  to make the
statements  therein,  in the light of the  circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading; and

                  (i)      make reasonable efforts to cause all the Eligible
Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement to be listed on each
securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, on which similar
securities issued by the Company are then listed if requested by the Optionee.

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

The Company may require the Optionee to furnish to the Company such  information
regarding the  distribution of the Eligible Common Stock as the Company may from
time to time reasonably request in writing.

The  Optionee  agrees  that,  upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event of the kind described in Section  16(c)(iv)  hereof,  the
Optionee will  forthwith  discontinue  the offering and  disposition of Eligible
Common Stock until the Optionee's  receipt of the copies of the  supplemented or
amended Prospectus  contemplated by Section 16(h) hereof, or until it is advised
in writing (the  "Advice") by the Company that the use of the  Prospectus may be
resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which
are  incorporated  by  reference in the  Prospectus,  and, if so directed by the
Company, the Optionee will deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all
copies, other than permanent file copies then in the Optionee's  possession,  of
the  Prospectus  covering  such  Eligible  Common  Stock  current at the time of
receipt of such notice.

         17.      Registration  Expenses. All expenses incident to the Company's
performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including SEC registration and
filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with state securities, or blue sky,
laws and the fees and expenses  incurred in  connection  with the listing of the
securities  to be  registered  on each  securities  exchange  on  which  similar
securities  issued by the Company are then listed in connection  with the Demand
Registration will be borne by the Company.

         18.      Action by the Company.  The existence of this Option shall not
affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its  stockholders to make
or authorize any or all adjustments, 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 of bonds,  debentures,  preferred or
prior  preference  stocks ahead of or  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.

         19.      Interpretation. As a condition to the granting of this Option,
the Optionee and each person who succeeds to the  Optionee's  rights  hereunder,
agrees that any dispute or  disagreement  which shall arise under or as a result
of or pursuant to this Option shall be determined by the Board in its good faith
sole discretion,  and that any such determination or interpretation of the terms
of this Option by the Board shall be final, binding and conclusive.

this Option shall be addressed to the Company in care of its Corporate Secretary

Option is found to be invalid or otherwise  unenforceable  under any  applicable
law, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not be construed as rendering any
other provisions  contained  therein as invalid or  unenforceable,  and all such
other  provisions  shall be given full  force and  effect to the same  extent as
though the invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.
