INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
--------------------------------
THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, XXXXXXX X. XXXXXX
(the "Optionee"), is entitled to purchase from ENSEC INTERNATIONAL, INC., a
Florida corporation (the "Company"), twenty five thousand (25,000) shares of the
Company's common stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), subject
to adjustment pursuant to Section 9 hereof, at the price of $3.00 per share (the
"Exercise Price").
1. Grant Under 1996 Stock Option Plan. This option is granted
----------------------------------
pursuant to and is governed by the Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan")
and, unless the context otherwise requires, terms used herein shall have the
same meaning as in the Plan. Determinations made in connection with this option
pursuant to the Plan shall be governed by the Plan as it exists on this date.
In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and the Plan, or if any
issue is not addressed by this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall
govern.
2. Grant as Incentive Stock Option; Other Options. This option is
----------------------------------------------
intended to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). This option is in
addition to any other options heretofore or hereafter granted to the Optionee by
the Company.
3. Vesting. Subject to the provisions of Section 12 hereunder, the
-------
option granted under this Agreement shall vest and become exercisable in three
installments of eight thousand three hundred thirty three and one-third
(8,333-1/3) shares each, with the first installment to occur upon the
consummation of the Company's initial public offering, and the next two
installments to occur upon the first two anniversaries of such consummation,
provided that the Optionee is still employed by the Company on such anniversary
dates. The options may be exercised up to and including the date which is ten
(10) years from the date the options are granted.
4. Partial Exercise. Exercise of this option up to the extent above
----------------
stated may be made in part at any time and from time to time within the above
limits, except that this option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share.
Any fractional share with respect to which an installment of this option cannot
be exercised because of the limitation contained in the preceding sentence shall
remain subject to this option and shall be available for later purchase by the
Optionee in accordance with the terms hereof.
5. Payment of Price. The option price is payable (i) in cash, (ii)
----------------
by certified check or bank cashier's check payable to the order of the Company
in the amount of such purchase price, (iii) by delivery to the Company of Common
Stock having a fair market value equal to such purchase price, provided that
such Common Stock has been owned by the Optionee for such period
as the Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Company's Board of
Directors may determine as necessary to avoid adverse accounting treatment by
the Company, (iv) by irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to
the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds necessary to pay such purchase
price and to sell the Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the option and
deliver the cash proceeds less commissions and brokerage fees to the Optionee or
to deliver the remaining shares of Common Stock to the Optionee, or (v) by any
combination of the methods of payment described in (i) through (iv) above.
6. Agreement to Purchase for Investment. By acceptance of this
------------------------------------
option, the Optionee agrees that a purchase of shares under this option will not
be made with a view to their distribution, as that term is used in the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), unless in the opinion of counsel
to the Company such distribution is in compliance with or exempt from the
registration and prospectus requirements of the Act, or a registration statement
is in effect pursuant to the Act with respect to the shares, and the Optionee
agrees to sign a certificate to such effect at the time of exercising this
option and agrees that the certificate for the shares so purchased may be
inscribed with a legend to ensure compliance with the Act.
7. Method of Exercising Option. Subject to the terms and conditions
---------------------------
of this Agreement, this option may be exercised by written notice to the
Company, at the principal executive office of the Company, or to such transfer
agent as the Company shall designate. Such notice shall state the election to
exercise an option and the number of shares in respect of which it is being
exercised and shall be signed by the person or persons so exercising this
option. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment of the full purchase price
of such shares, and the Company shall deliver a certificate or certificates
representing such shares as soon as practicable after such payment shall be
received. The certificate or certificates for the shares as to which this
option shall have been so exercised shall be registered in the name of the
person or persons so exercising this option (or, if this option shall be
exercised by the Optionee and if the Optionee shall so request in the notice
exercising this option, shall be registered in the name of the Optionee and
another person jointly, with right of survivorship) and shall be delivered as
provided above to or upon the written order of the person or persons exercising
this option. In the event this option shall be exercised by any person or
persons other than the Optionee (if in compliance with the Plan), such notice
shall be accompanied by appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons
to exercise this option. All shares that shall be purchased upon the exercise
of this option as provided herein shall be fully paid and non-assessable.
8. No Obligation to Exercise Option. The grant and acceptance of
--------------------------------
this option imposes no obligation on the Optionee to exercise the option.
9. Capital Changes and Business Successions. The Plan contains
----------------------------------------
provisions covering this treatment of options in a number of contingencies such
as stock splits and mergers. Provisions in the Plan for adjustment with respect
to stock subject to options and the related provisions with respect to
successors to the business of the Company are hereby made applicable hereunder
and are incorporated herein by reference.

10. Reservation of Common Stock. The Company will at all times
---------------------------
reserve and keep available for issuance upon the exercise of this Agreement such
number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be
sufficient to permit the exercise in full hereof, and upon such issuance such
shares of Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable.
11. No Shareholder Rights or Obligation. This Agreement will not
-----------------------------------
entitle the Optionee (or subsequent holder of this Agreement) hereof to any
voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company. No provision of
this Agreement will give rise to any obligation of the Optionee for the Exercise
Price of Common Stock acquirable by exercise hereof or as a shareholder of the
Company.
