Neither the Plan or the issuance of any Common Stock under the Plan shall
confer upon any Employee any right with respect to continuing employment
with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right

that she/he is acquiring the shares for investment and not for resale or to
distribute the Shares to the public. Upon demand, delivery of such a

qualification of such shares under any federal or state law, or any ruling
or regulation of any governmental body which the Company shall, in its sole
discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable. Further, it is the
intention of the Company that the Plan complies in all respects with the
