2. The term of this option commences on the date hereof and terminates 10 years
hereafter on June 1, 2015. This option is not transferable, except at death by

represented thereby, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or

Company notice in writing, designating the number of shares as to which you are
exercising your option, accompanied by payment in full for such number of

form of a certificate or certificates representing stock of the Company at its
then value.
c. Following receipt of such notice and required payment and compliance
by the Optionee or other person entitled to exercise the option with any
limitations and conditions imposed by this grant, the Company shall thereafter
cause its transfer agent and registrar to issue and deliver to the Optionee (or
other person entitled to exercise the option) as soon as practically possible a
certificate or certificates for such number of shares registered in the name of
the Optionee or such other person entitled to exercise the option, as the case
may be.

shall be exercisable in said manner during the 10 day period following the
occurrence of any of the events described in subparagraph 10.3 of the Plan.

to all interpretations, rules and regulations which may from time to time be
promulgated and adopted pursuant to such Plan.
6. The Company is under no obligation to register the shares of Common Stock
purchased upon exercise of this option under the Securities Act of 1933.
7. Any dispute or disagreement which shall arise under, or as a result of, or
pursuant to, this Agreement shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the
Company in its absolute and uncontrolled discretion, and any such determination
or any other determination by the Board of Directors under or pursuant to this
Agreement and any interpretation by the Board of Directors of the terms of this
Agreement, shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons affected
thereby.
