other property, or in the event that the Corporation is a party to a
reorganization, then upon exercise of the Options granted hereunder, the

the Option granted hereby shall be exercisable by the Optionee at any time
within six months after the date of such termination, to the extent the Option

after the expiration of the term of the Option. If the Option is not exercised
as provided in this paragraph (d), it shall expire and shall not thereafter be
exercisable.
(e) If the Optionee's service as a director of the Corporation shall
terminate as a result of the employment of such Optionee by the Corporation or
the Optionee's retirement after age 65, such Optionee shall retain the right to
exercise the installments of his or her Option in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, whether or not such installments were exercisable as of the date
the Optionee became an employee or retired.
(f) If the Optionee's service on the Board of Directors of the Corporation
shall terminate by reason of the Optionee's death, the Option granted hereby
shall be exercisable by the Optionee's estate or the persons who acquired the
right to exercise such Option by bequest or inheritance, at any time within one
year after the date of such death to the extent the Option was exercisable by
the Optionee on the date of death; provided, however, that in no event shall any
Option be exercisable after the expiration of its term. If the Option is not
exercised as provided in this paragraph (f), it shall expire and shall not
thereafter be exercisable.
5. Notice of Exercise of Option and Payment for Shares. The Optionee
---------------------------------------------------
shall deliver to the Corporation written notice of his or her election to
exercise all or part of the Option granted hereby, which notice shall specify
the number of shares in respect to which the Option is to be exercised.
The Optionee shall pay the exercise price of the shares of Stock being
purchased (a) in cash or its equivalent; (b) in Stock previously acquired by the
Optionee, provided that if such Stock was acquired through exercise of an ISO,
such Stock has been held by the Optionee for a period of not less than the
holding period described in section 422(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code"), on the date of exercise, or if such Stock was
acquired through exercise of an NQSO or of an option under a similar plan, such
Stock has been held by the Optionee for a period of more than one year on the
date of exercise, and further provided that the Optionee shall not have tendered
Stock in payment of the exercise price of any other Option under this Agreement
or any other stock option plan of the Corporation within six calendar months of
the date of exercise; (c) in any combination of (a) and (b) above; or (d) by
delivering a properly executed notice of exercise of the Option to the
Corporation and a broker, with irrevocable instructions to the broker to deliver
to the Corporation on the settlement date the amount of sale proceeds necessary
to pay the exercise price of the Option. In the event the Option price is paid,
in whole or in part, with Stock, the portion of the Option price so paid shall
be equal to the "fair market value" on the date of tender of the Stock so
tendered in payment of such Option price.
Unless the Corporation has theretofore notified the Optionee that a
registration statement covering the shares to be acquired upon the exercise of
the Option has become effective under the 1933 Act and the Corporation has not
thereafter notified the Optionee that such registration is no longer effective,
it shall be a condition to any exercise of this Option that the Optionee
represent to the Corporation in writing at the time the Optionee exercises the
Option granted hereby that the Optionee (a) is acquiring the Option Shares for
the purpose of investment and not with a view to distribution and will not
dispose of such shares in any manner that would involve a violation of
applicable securities laws, (b) has been advised and understands that the Option
Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, are
"restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Act, are
subject to restrictions on transfer and that the Corporation is under no
obligation to register the Option Shares under the Act or to take any action
which would make available to the Optionee any exemption from such registration,
and (c) understands that the certificates for such Option Shares shall bear an
appropriate legend restricting transfer in accordance with applicable securities
laws. This representation need not be made if the shares of the Common Stock
acquired through the exercise of the Option have been registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission prior to the date of exercise.
