                    FORM OF OPTION AGREEMENT RELATED TO 2000
                    NONEMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK OPTION PROGRAM

                           CONSOLIDATED PRODUCTS, INC.
                   NONEMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT, made this _____ day _____ of , 20 ___ by and between
CONSOLIDATED PRODUCTS, INC., an Indiana corporation with its principal office
at 36 South Pennsylvania Street, Indianapolis, Indiana (hereinafter called
"Company") and __________________________________________, (hereinafter
called "Grantee") pursuant to the terms, conditions and limitations contained
in the Company's Nonemployee Director Stock Option Plan (hereinafter called
the "Plan").

                                WITNESSETH THAT:

WHEREAS, in the interests of affording an incentive to the Grantee to give his
best efforts to the Company as a director, the Company wishes to provide that
the Grantee shall have an option to buy shares of the common stock, without par
value, ("Common Stock") of the Company:

NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby mutually agreed as follows:

     1.  The Company hereby grants to the Grantee the right and option to
purchase, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, all or any part
of an aggregate of      shares (hereinafter called "Subject Shares") of the
presently authorized, but unissued, or treasury Common Stock of the Company
at a purchase price of $     per share, exercisable in whole or in part from
time to time subject to the limitation that no option may be exercised with
respect to fewer than one hundred (100) shares unless there are fewer than
one hundred (100) shares then subject to purchase hereunder, in which event
any exercise must be as to all such shares and subject to the further
limitation that the options represented by this Agreement shall be
exercisable only at such times and in such amounts as are set forth on
Schedule I, attached hereto and made a part hereof. The option shall expire
as to all Subject Shares on the FIFTH anniversary date of this Agreement if
not exercised on or before such date.

     2.  This option may not be exercised until all applicable federal and state
securities requirements pertaining to the offer and sale of the securities
issued pursuant to the Plan have been met and the Company has been advised by
counsel that all applicable requirements have been met.

     3.  Subject to the limitation specified in Section 2 and Schedule I hereof,
the Grantee may from time to time exercise this option by delivering a written
notice of exercise and subscription agreement to the Secretary of the Company
specifying the number of whole shares to be purchased, accompanied by payment in
cash, of the aggregate option price of such number of shares; provided, however,
that the Grantee may make payment in the form of delivery to the Company of
Common Stock of the Company owned by the Grantee, the fair market value of which
equals the aggregate option price, or by payment partially in cash and partially
in Common Stock of the aggregate option price. For this purpose, any shares so
tendered by the Grantee shall be deemed to have a fair market value equal to the
average of the closing sales price for the shares on any national securities
exchange on which such shares are listed (or, if listed on more than one such
exchange, then on the one located in New York City), or, if not so listed, the
average of the high and low prices reported on the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc., Automated Quotations System (NASDAQ), for the five
trading days preceding the date of the exercise of the option. Such exercise
shall be effective upon receipt by the Secretary of such written notice,
subscription agreement and payment of the purchase price. Only the Grantee may
exercise the option during the lifetime of the Grantee. No fractional shares may
be purchased at any time hereunder.

     4.  If the Grantee ceases to be a director of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries for any reason other than permanent and total disability or death,
this option shall forthwith terminate. A leave of absence approved by the Board
of Directors shall not be considered a termination of directorship. If the
Grantee ceases to be a director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
because of permanent or total


                                       24

<PAGE>

disability, the Grantee may exercise this option in whole or in part at any time
within one year after such termination of directorship by reason of such
disability, but not later than the date upon which this option would otherwise
expire. The foregoing exercise provisions apply whether or not this option was
otherwise exercisable at the date of the Grantee's termination of directorship
because of permanent and total disability.

     5.  If the Grantee dies while a director of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, within one year after the termination of his directorship because
of permanent or total disability, this option may be exercised in whole or in
part by the executor, administrator, or estate beneficiaries of the Grantee at
any time after the date of the Grantee's death but not later than the date upon
which this option would otherwise expire. The foregoing exercise provisions
apply whether or not this option was otherwise exercisable at the date of the
Grantee's death.

     6.  Upon the effective exercise of the option, or any part thereof,
certificates representing the shares so purchased, marked fully paid and
non-assessable shall be delivered to the person who exercised the option. Until
certificates representing such shares shall have been issued and delivered, the
Grantee shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a shareholder of the
Company in respect of any of such shares.

     7.  In the event that prior to the delivery by the Company of all the
Subject Shares, there shall be an increase or reduction in the number of shares
of Common Stock of the Company issued and outstanding by reason of any
subdivision or consolidation of the Common Stock or any other capital
adjustment, the number of shares then subject to this option and the option
price shall be increased or decreased as provided in Section 8 of the Plan.

     8.  The option and the rights and privileges conferred by this Option
Agreement shall not be assigned or transferred by the Grantee in any manner
except by will or under the laws of descent and distribution. In the event of
any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of this Section 8, the option,
rights and privileges conferred by this Stock Option Agreement shall become null
and void.

     9.  By executing this Stock Option Agreement, the Grantee thereby
represents that this option is being acquired by him in good faith for
investment purposes and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any
distribution thereof, and that any shares the Grantee or his legal
representatives acquire pursuant to this option will be acquired in good faith
for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with,
any distribution thereof unless such shares are registered under the applicable
federal and state securities laws.

     10. Certificates evidencing shares issued upon exercise of this option may
bear a legend setting forth among other things, such restrictions on the
disposition or transfer with the above representation or as appropriate to
comply with federal and state securities laws.

     11. Any notices to be given or served under the terms of this Option
Agreement shall be addressed to the Secretary of the Company at 36 South
Pennsylvania Street, Indianapolis, Indiana, 46204, and to the Grantee at such
address or addresses as either party may hereafter designate in writing to the
other. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been duly given or served, if and
when enclosed in a properly sealed envelope addressed as aforesaid, postage
prepaid, and deposited in the United States mail.

     12. The interpretation by the Board of Directors of any provisions of the
Plan or of this Stock Option Agreement shall be final and binding on the
Grantee.

     13. This option is subject to all the terms, provisions and conditions of
the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference and to such regulations as
may from time to time be adopted by the Board of Directors. A copy of the Plan
has been furnished to the Grantee and an additional copy may be obtained from
the Company. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Plan and
the provisions of this Stock Option Agreement, the terms, conditions and
provisions of the Plan shall control, and this Stock Option Agreement shall be
deemed to be modified accordingly.
