Plan.

The details of this Option are as follows:

1. VESTING. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, this option will
vest as provided in the Grant Notice.

2. EXERCISE OF THE OPTION.

2.1 METHOD OF EXERCISE. You may exercise the vested portion of

notice of exercise in such form as may be designated by the Company from time to
time together with the exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to
such other person as the Company may designate, during regular business hours
and prior to the expiration of the Option, together with such additional
documents as the Company may then require pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

2.2 METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the exercise price may be by
cash (or check), or pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as

results in either the receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt

aggregate exercise price to the Company, or a combination of the above methods,
as the Company may designate from time to time.

2.3 TAX WITHHOLDING. By exercising this Option you agree that as
a condition to any exercise of this Option, the Company may withhold from your
