IX.    TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF GRANT

       The number of Attendance Shares which shall be granted to a Non-Employee
Director, with respect to each Attendance Fee during the Election Period, shall
equal the Attendance Fee multiplied by the Election Percentage divided by the
Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock at the close of business on the
date such Attendance Fee shall be earned.

       The number of Mandatory Retainer Shares which shall be granted to a
Non-Employee Director as of each Date of Grant, shall equal 50% of the
annualized Retainer Fee divided by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common
Stock as of the Date of Grant. The number of Optional Retainer Shares which
shall be granted to a Non-Employee Director as of each Date of Grant, shall
equal the Optional Retainer Fee multiplied by the applicable Election Percentage
divided by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the Date of
Grant.

       Mandatory and Optional Retainer Shares granted as of each Date of Grant
shall vest ratably in twelve installments as of each monthly anniversary of the
Date of Grant. In the event a Non-Employee Director's service as such terminates
prior to the end of any Board term, any unvested portion of his Mandatory or
Optional Retainer Shares shall be forfeited.

       Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, a Non-Employee
Director shall have no right to transfer his Mandatory or Optional Retainer
Shares until the first annual anniversary of the Date of Grant of such Mandatory
or Optional Retainer Shares.

       The Company may impose such restrictions on any Plan Shares acquired
under this Director Plan as may be advisable in its judgment to ensure
compliance with applicable federal or state securities laws and may legend the
certificates representing such Plan Shares as an appropriate notice of such
restrictions.

X.     DISCONTINUANCE AND AMENDMENT

       The Board of Directors may, from time to time, amend, suspend or
discontinue this Director Plan, provided that any amendment that would (1)
increase the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which may be granted
under the Plan, (2) materially increase the benefits accruing to Non-Employee
Directors under this Director Plan, (3) materially modify the requirements as to
eligibility for participation in this Director Plan, or (4) extend the
expiration date of this Director Plan beyond that set forth in Section VII
hereof, shall be subject to the requisite approval of the Company's
stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall this Director
Plan be modified more often than once every six months, other than to comport
with changes in the Internal Revenue Code, the Employee Retirement income
Security Act, or the rules thereunder, or the Rules promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

       The Board of Directors, without further approval of the stockholders,
may terminate or suspend this Director Plan. Any such termination or suspension
of the Director Plan shall not affect Plan Shares already granted.
