of stock options under the Plan and the amount and nature of the awards to be
granted shall be automatic in accordance with Section 5. However, all questions
of interpretation of the Plan or of any options issued under it shall be
determined by the Board of Directors and such determination shall be final and
binding upon all persons having an interest in the Plan.

     5.   Terms, Conditions and Form of Options
          -------------------------------------

          Each option granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written
agreement in such form as the Board of Directors shall from time to time
approve, which agreements shall comply with and be subject to the following
terms and conditions:

          (a)  Option Grant Dates.
               ------------------

               (i)  Upon the closing of the initial public offering of Common
Stock of the Company, and on the date of each annual meeting of stockholders of
the Company, and on the date of each annual meeting of stockholders of the
Company thereafter, the Company shall grant to each eligible director an option
for 3,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Annual Option").

               (ii) Upon the initial election of any eligible director as a
director of the Company, the Company shall grant to such director an option for
15,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Initial Option"), provided that no person
                                                      --------
serving as a director upon the adoption of this Plan shall receive such an
option.

          (b)  Option Exercise Price.  The option exercise price per share for
               ---------------------
each option granted under the Plan shall equal (i) the last reported sales price
per share of the Company's Common Stock on the NASDAQ National Market System
(or, if the Company is traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange on
the date of grant, the reported closing sales price per share of the Company's
Common Stock by such exchange) on the date of grant (or if no such price is
reported on such date such price as reported on the nearest preceding day) or
(ii) if the Common Stock is not traded on NASDAQ or an exchange, the fair market
value per share on the date of grant as determined by the Board of Directors.

          (c)  Options Non-Transferable.  Each option granted under the Plan by
               ------------------------
its terms shall not be transferable by the optionee otherwise than by will, or
by the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercised during the
lifetime of the optionee only by him. No option or interest therein may be
transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the optionee during his
lifetime, whether by operation of law or otherwise, or be made subject to
execution, attachment or similar process.

          (d)  Exercise Period.  Each Initial Option shall become exercisable on
               ---------------
a cumulative basis as to one-fourth of the shares subject to the option on each
of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant of
such option. Each

<PAGE>

Annual Option shall become exercisable 12 months after the date of grant of such
option (or, if earlier, the day prior to the first Annual Meeting of
Stockholders of the Company following the date of grant). In the event an
optionee ceases to serve as a director, each such option may be exercised by the
optionee (or, in the event of his death, by his administrator, executor or
heirs), at any time within 12 months after the optionee ceases to serve as a
director, to the extent such option was exercisable at the time of such
cessation of service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no option shall be
exercisable after the expiration of ten years from the date of grant.

          (e)  Exercise Procedure.  Options may be exercised only by written
               ------------------
notice to the Company at its principal office accompanied by (i) payment in cash
of the full consideration for the shares as to which they are exercised or (ii)
an irrevocable undertaking by a broker to deliver promptly to the Company
sufficient funds to pay the exercise price or delivery of irrevocable
instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company cash or a check
sufficient to pay the exercise price.

     6.   Assignments
          -----------

          The rights and benefits of participants under the Plan may not be
assigned, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, except as provided in
Section 5(d).

     7.   Effective Date
          --------------

          The Plan shall become effective immediately upon its adoption by the
Board of Directors, but all grants of options shall be conditional upon the
approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company within 12 months after
adoption of the Plan by the Board of Directors.

     8.   Limitation of Rights
          --------------------

          (a)  No Right to Continue as a Director.  Neither the Plan, nor the
               ----------------------------------
granting of an option nor any other action taken pursuant to the Plan, shall
constitute or be evidence of any agreement or understanding, express or implied,
that the Company will retain a director for any period of time.

          (b)  No Stockholders' Rights for Options.  An optionee shall have no
               -----------------------------------
rights as a stockholder with respect to the shares covered by his options until
the date of the issuance to him of a

                                       2
<PAGE>

stock certificate therefor, and no adjustment will be made for dividends or
other rights (except as provided in Section 9) for which the record date is
prior to the date such certificate is issued.

     9.   Changes in Common Stock
          -----------------------

          (a)  If the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased,
decreased or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other
securities, or if additional shares or new or different shares or other
securities are distributed with respect to such shares of Common Stock or other
securities, through merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Company, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification,
stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other distribution with
respect to such shares of Common Stock, or other securities, an appropriate and
proportionate adjustment will be made in (i) the maximum number and kind of
shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, (ii) the number and kind of shares
or other securities subject to then outstanding options under the Plan and (iii)
the price for each share subject to any then outstanding options under the Plan,
without changing the aggregate purchase price as to which such options remain
exercisable. No fractional shares will be issued under the Plan on account of
any such adjustments.

          (b)  In the event that the Company is merged or consolidated into or
with another corporation (in which consolidation or merger the stockholders of
the Company receive distributions of cash or securities of another issuer as a
result thereof), or in the event that all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company are acquired by any other person or entity, or in the event of a
reorganization or liquidation of the Company, the Board of Directors of the
Company, or the board of directors of any corporation assuming the obligations
of the Company, shall, as to outstanding options, either (i) provide that such
options shall be assumed, or equivalent options shall be substituted, by the
acquiring or successor corporation (or an affiliate thereof), or (ii) upon
written notice to the optionees, provide that all unexercised options will
terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such merger, consolidation,
acquisition, reorganization or liquidations unless exercised by the optionee
within a specified number of days following the date of such notice.
