The total number of Shares to be made available under this Plan is 607,500
authorized and unissued or treasury shares of Common Stock, or Shares
repurchased on the open market, subject to adjustments pursuant to Section
17. In the event that all of the Shares made available under this Plan are
subscribed prior to the expiration of this Plan, this Plan may be
terminated in accordance with Section 19.

5. OFFERING PERIODS

During the term of this Plan, the Corporation will offer Options to
purchase Shares to all Participants during each Offering Period. Each
Option shall become effective on the Grant Date. The term of each Option
shall be six months and shall end on the Exercise Date. The first Offering
Period shall commence on or after the Effective Date. Offering Periods
shall continue until this Plan is terminated in accordance with Section 18
or 19, or, if earlier, until no Shares remain available for Options
pursuant to Section 4.

6. PARTICIPATION

An Eligible Employee may become a participant in this Plan by completing a
Subscription Agreement on a form approved by and in a manner prescribed by
the Committee (or its delegate). To become effective, a Subscription
Agreement must be filed with the Corporation prior to the start of the
Offering Period with respect to which it is to become effective and must
set forth the percentage of the Eligible Employee's Compensation (which
shall be a whole percentage point not less than 1% and not more than 10%)
to be credited to the Participant's Account as Contributions each pay
period. Subscription Agreements shall contain the Eligible Employee's
authorization and consent to the Corporation's withholding from his or her
Compensation the amount of his or her Contributions. Subscription
Agreements shall remain valid for all Offering Periods until (i) an
Eligible Employee's participation terminates pursuant to the terms hereof,
or (ii) until a new Subscription Agreement becomes effective.

7. METHOD OF PAYMENT OF CONTRIBUTIONS

(a) The Corporation shall maintain on its books, or cause to be maintained
by a recordkeeper, an Account in the name of each Participant. The
percentage of Compensation elected to be applied as Contributions by a
Participant shall be deducted from such Participant's Compensation on each
payday during the period for payroll deductions set forth below and such
payroll deductions shall be credited to that Participant's Account as soon
as administratively practicable after such date. A Participant may not
make any additional payments to his or her Account. A Participant's
Account shall be reduced by any amounts used to pay the Option Price of
Shares acquired, or by any other amounts distributed pursuant to the terms
hereof.

(b) Payroll deductions with respect to an Offering Period shall commence
as of the first day of the payroll period which coincides with or
immediately follows the applicable Grant Date and shall end on the last
day of the payroll period which coincides with or immediately precedes the
applicable Exercise Date, unless sooner terminated by the

Participant as provided in this Section or until his or her participation
terminates pursuant to Section 11.

(c) A Participant may terminate his or her Contributions during an
Offering Period by completing and filing with the Corporation, in such
form and on such terms as the Committee (or its delegate) may prescribe, a
written withdrawal form which shall be signed by the Participant. Such
termination shall be effective as soon as administratively practicable
after its receipt by the Corporation.

(d) A Participant may discontinue or otherwise change the level of his or
her Contributions (within Plan limits) effective as of the next Grant Date
by completing and filing with the Corporation, on such terms as the
Committee (or its delegate) may prescribe, a new Subscription Agreement.

8. GRANT OF OPTION

(a) On each Grant Date, each Eligible Employee who is a participant during
that Offering Period shall be granted an Option to purchase a number of
Shares. The Option shall be exercised on the Exercise Date. The number of
Shares subject to the Option shall be determined by dividing the
Participant's Account balance as of the applicable Exercise Date by the
Option Price.

(b) The Option Price per Share of the Shares subject to an Option shall be
the lesser of: (i) 90% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the
applicable Grant Date; or (ii) 90% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on
the applicable Exercise Date.

(c) Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, a person who is
otherwise an Eligible Employee shall not be granted any Option or other
right to purchase Shares under this Plan to the extent (i) it would, if
exercised, cause the person to own "stock" (as such term is defined for
purposes of Section 423(b)(3) of the Code) possessing 5% or more of the
total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the
Corporation, or any Subsidiary, or (ii) such Option causes such individual
to have rights to purchase stock under this Plan and any other plan of the
Company qualified under Section 423 of the Code which accrue at a rate
which exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value of the stock of the
Corporation or of a Subsidiary (determined at the time the right to
purchase such Stock is granted) for each calendar year in which such right
is outstanding. For this purpose a right to purchase Shares accrues when
it first become exercisable during the calendar year. In determining
whether the stock ownership of an Eligible Employee equals or exceeds the
5% limit set forth above, the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code
(relating to attribution of stock ownership) shall apply.

9. EXERCISE OF OPTION

Unless a Participant's Plan participation is terminated as provided in
Section 11, his or her Option for the purchase of Shares shall be
exercised automatically on the Exercise Date for that Offering Period,
without any further action on the Participant's part, and the maximum
number of whole Shares subject to such Option shall be purchased at the
Option Price with the balance of such Participant's Account. If any amount
(which is not sufficient to purchase a whole Share) remains in a
Participant's Account after the

exercise of his or her Option on the Exercise Date: (i) such amount shall
be credited to such Participant's Account for the next Offering Period, if
he or she is then a Participant; or (ii) if such Participant is not a
Participant in the next Offering Period, or if the Committee so elects,
such amount shall be refunded to such Participant as soon as
administratively practicable after such date.

10. DELIVERY

As soon as administratively practicable after the Exercise Date, the
Corporation shall deliver to each Participant a certificate representing
the Shares purchased upon exercise of his or her Option. The Corporation
may make available an alternative arrangement for delivery of Shares to a
recordkeeping service. The Committee (or its delegate), in its discretion,
may either require or permit the Participant to elect that such
certificates be delivered to such recordkeeping service. In the event the
Corporation is required to obtain from any commission or agency authority
to issue any such certificate, the Corporation will seek to obtain such
authority. Inability of the Corporation to obtain from any such commission
or agency authority which counsel for the Corporation deems necessary for
the lawful issuance of any such certificate shall relieve the Corporation
from liability to any Participant except to return to the Participant the
amount of the balance in his or her Account.

11. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT; CHANGE IN ELIGIBLE STATUS

(a) Upon a Participant's termination from employment with the Company for
any reason or in the event that a Participant is no longer an Eligible
Employee or if the Participant elects to terminate Contributions pursuant
to Section 7(c), at any time prior to the last day of an Offering Period
in which he or she participates, such Participant's Account shall be paid
to him or her or in cash, or, in the event of such Participant's death,
paid to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section 13, and such
Participant's Option and participation in the Plan shall be automatically
terminated.

(b) A Participant's termination from Plan participation precludes the
Participant from again participating in this Plan during that Offering
Period. However, such termination shall not have any effect upon his or
her ability to participate in any succeeding Offering Period, provided
that the applicable eligibility and participation requirements are again
then met. A Participant's termination from Plan participation shall be
deemed to be a revocation of that Participant's Subscription Agreement and
such Participant must file a new Subscription Agreement to resume Plan
participation in any succeeding Offering Period.

12. ADMINISTRATION

(a) The Board shall appoint the Committee, which shall be composed of not
less than two members of the Board. Each member of the Committee, in
respect of any transaction at a time when an affected Participant may be
subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be a "non-employee
director" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section 16.
The Board may, at any time, increase or decrease the number of members of
the Committee, may remove from membership on the Committee all or any
portion of its members, and may appoint such person or persons as it
desires to fill any vacancy

existing on the Committee, whether caused by removal, resignation, or
otherwise. The Board may also, at any time, assume or change the
administration of this Plan.

(b) The Committee shall supervise and administer this Plan and shall have
full power and discretion to adopt, amend and rescind any rules deemed
desirable and appropriate for the administration of this Plan and not
inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, and to make all other
determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan.
The Committee shall act by majority vote or by unanimous written consent.
No member of the Committee shall be entitled to act on or decide any
matter relating solely to himself or herself or any of his or her rights
or benefits under this Plan. The Committee shall have full power and
discretionary authority to construe and interpret the terms and conditions
of this Plan, which construction or interpretation shall be final and
binding on all parties including the Corporation, Participants and
beneficiaries. The Committee may delegate ministerial non-discretionary
functions to third parties, including officers of the Corporation.

(c) Any action taken by, or inaction of, the Corporation, the Board or the
Committee relating to this Plan shall be within the absolute discretion of
that entity or body. No member of the Board or Committee, or officer of
the Corporation shall be liable for any such action or inaction.

13. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY

(a) A Participant may file, in a manner prescribed by the Committee (or
its delegate), a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive
any Shares or cash from such Participant's Account under this Plan in the
event of such Participant's death. If a Participant's death occurs
subsequent to the end of an Offering Period but prior to the delivery to
him or her of any Shares deliverable under the terms of this Plan, such
Shares and any remaining balance of such Participant's Account shall be
paid to such beneficiary (or such other person as set forth in Section
13(b)) as soon as administratively practicable after the Corporation
receives notice of such Participant's death and any outstanding
unexercised Option shall terminate. If a Participant's death occurs at any
other time, the balance of such Participant's Account shall be paid to
such beneficiary (or such other person as set forth in Section 13(b)) in
cash as soon as administratively practicable after the Corporation
receives notice of such Participant's death and such Participant's Option
shall terminate. If a Participant is married and the designated
beneficiary is not his or her spouse, spousal consent shall be required
for such designation to be effective.

(b) Beneficiary designations may be changed by the Participant (and his or
her spouse, if required) at any time on forms provided and in the manner
prescribed by the Committee (or its delegate). If a Participant dies with
no validly designated beneficiary under this Plan who is living at the
time of such Participant's death, the Corporation shall deliver all Shares
and/or cash payable pursuant to the terms hereof to the executor or
administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or
administrator has been appointed, the Corporation, in its discretion, may
deliver such Shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more
dependents or relatives of the Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or
relative is known to the Corporation, then to such other person as the
Corporation may designate.

14. TRANSFERABILITY

Neither Contributions credited to a Participant's Account nor any Options
or rights with respect to the exercise of Options or right to receive
Shares under this Plan may be anticipated, alienated, encumbered,
assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other
than by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or as provided in
Section 13) by the Participant. Any such attempt at anticipation,
alienation, encumbrance, assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition
shall be without effect and all amounts shall be paid and all shares shall
be delivered in accordance with the provisions of this Plan. Amounts
payable or Shares deliverable pursuant to this Plan shall be paid or
delivered only to the Participant or, in the event of the Participant's
death, to the Participant's beneficiary pursuant to Section 13.

15. USE OF FUNDS; INTEREST

All Contributions received or held by the Corporation under this Plan will
be included in the general assets of the Corporation and may be used for
any corporate purpose. No interest will be paid to any Participant or
credited to his or her Account under this Plan.

16. REPORTS

Statements shall be provided to Participants as soon as administratively
practicable following each Exercise Date. Each Participant's statement
shall set forth, as of such Exercise Date, that Participant's Account
balance immediately prior to the exercise of his or her Option, the Fair
Market Value of a Share, the Option Price, the number of whole Shares
purchased and his or her remaining Account balance, if any.

17. ADJUSTMENTS OF AND CHANGES IN THE STOCK

In the event that the Shares shall be changed into or exchanged for a
different number or kind of shares of stock or other securities of the
Corporation or of another corporation (whether by reason of merger,
consolidation, recapitalization, stock split, combination of shares, or
otherwise), or if the number of Shares shall be increased through a stock
split or the payment of a stock dividend, then there shall be substituted
for or added to each Share theretofore reserved for sale under this Plan,
the number and kind of shares of stock or other securities into which each
outstanding Share shall be so changed, or for which each such Share shall
be exchanged, or to which each such Share is entitled, as the case may be,
or the number or kind of securities which may be sold under this Plan and
the purchase price per Share shall be appropriately adjusted consistent
with such change in such manner as the Committee (or its delegate) may
deem equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of rights
granted to, or available for, Eligible Employees under this Plan.

18. POSSIBLE EARLY TERMINATION OF PLAN AND OPTIONS

Upon a dissolution of the Corporation, an event described in Section 17
that the Corporation does not survive, or the occurrence of a Change in
Control, the Plan and, if prior to the last day of an Offering Period, any
outstanding Option granted with respect to that Offering Period shall
terminate, subject to any provision that has been expressly

made by the Committee through a plan or reorganization approved by the
Board or otherwise for the survival, substitution, assumption, exchange or
other settlement of the Plan and Options. In the event a Participant's
Option is terminated pursuant to this Section 18, such Participant's
Account shall be paid to him or her in cash without interest.

19. TERM OF PLAN; AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION

(a) This Plan shall become effective as of the Effective Date. No new
Offering Periods shall commence on or after the tenth anniversary of the
Effective Date and this Plan shall terminate on such date unless sooner
terminated pursuant to Section 18 or this Section 19.

(b) The Board may amend, modify or terminate this Plan at any time without
notice. Shareholder approval for any amendment or modification shall not
be required, except to the extent required by Section 423 of the Code or
other applicable law, or deemed necessary or advisable by the Board. No
amendment, modification, or termination pursuant to this Section 18(b)
shall, without written consent of the Participant, affect in any manner
materially adverse to the Participant any rights or benefits of such
Participant or obligations of the Corporation under any Option granted
under this Plan prior to the effective date of such change. Changes
contemplated by Section 17 shall not be deemed to constitute changes or
amendments requiring Participant consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Committee shall have the right to designate from time to time the
Subsidiaries whose employees may be eligible to participate in this Plan
and such designation shall not constitute any amendment to this Plan
requiring shareholder approval.

20. NOTICES

All notices or other communications by a Participant to the Corporation
contemplated by this Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when
received in the form and manner specified by the Committee (or its
delegate) at the location, or by the person, designated by the Committee
(or its delegate) for that purpose.

21. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES

Shares shall not be issued with respect to an Option unless the exercise
of such Option and the issuance and delivery of such Shares complies with
all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including, without
limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, any
applicable state securities laws, the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the
Shares may then be listed.

As a condition precedent to the exercise of any Option, if, in the opinion
of counsel for the Corporation such a representation is required under
applicable law, the Corporation may require any person exercising such
Option to represent and warrant that the Shares subject thereto are being
acquired only for investment and without any present intention to sell or
distribute such Shares.

22. PLAN CONSTRUCTION

(a) It is the intent of the Corporation that transactions in and affecting
Options in the case of Participants who are or may be subject to the
prohibitions of Section 16 satisfy any then applicable requirements of
Rule 16b-3 so that such persons (unless they otherwise agree) will be
entitled to the exemptive relief of Rule 16b-3 in respect of those
transactions and will not be subject to avoidable liability thereunder.
Accordingly, this Plan shall be deemed to contain and the Shares issued
upon exercise thereof shall be subject to, such additional conditions and
restrictions as may be required by Rule 16b-3 to qualify for the maximum
exemption from Section 16 with respect to Plan transactions.

(b) This Plan and Options are intended to qualify under Section 423 of the
Code.

(c) If any provision of this Plan or of any Option would otherwise
frustrate or conflict with the intents expressed above, that provision to
the extent possible shall be interpreted so as to avoid such conflict. If
the conflict remains irreconcilable, the Committee may disregard the
provision if it concludes that to do so furthers the interest of the
Corporation and is consistent with the purposes of this Plan as to such
persons in the circumstances.

23. EMPLOYEES' RIGHTS

Nothing in this Plan (or in any agreement related to this Plan) shall
confer upon any Eligible Employee or Participant any right to continue in
the service or employ of the Company or constitute any contract or
agreement of service or employment, or interfere in any way with the right
of the Company to reduce such person's compensation or other benefits or
to terminate the services or employment or such Eligible Employee or
Participant, with or without cause, but nothing contained in this Plan or
any document related hereto shall affect any other contractual right of
any Eligible Employee or Participant. No Participant shall have any rights
as a shareholder until a certificate for Shares has been issued in the
Participant's name following exercise of his or her Option. No adjustment
will be made for dividends or other rights as a shareholder for which a
record date is prior to the issuance of such Share certificate. Nothing in
this Plan shall be deemed to create any fiduciary relationship between the
Corporation and any Participant.

24. MISCELLANEOUS

(a) This Plan and related documents shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of California. If any provision
shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid and
unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Plan shall continue to be
fully effective.

(b) Captions and headings are given to the sections of this Plan solely as
a convenience to facilitate reference. Such captions and headings shall
not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction of
interpretation of this Plan or any provision hereof.

(c) The adoption of this Plan shall not affect any other compensation or
incentive plans in effect for the Company. Nothing in this Plan shall be
construed to limit the right of the Company (i) to establish any other
forms of incentives or compensation for

employees of the Company, or (ii) to grant or assume options (outside the
scope of and in addition to those contemplated by this Plan) in connection
with any proper corporate purpose.

25. EFFECTIVE DATE

This Plan shall be effective on the Effective Date, subject, however, to
the approval of this Plan by the shareholders of the Company within twelve
months after the date on which the Board approved this Plan.
Notwithstanding anything else contained herein to the contrary, no Shares
shall be issued or delivered under this Plan until such shareholder
approval is obtained and, if such shareholder approval is not obtained
within such 12-month period of time, all Contributions credited to a
Participant's Account hereunder shall be refunded to such Participant
(without interest) as soon as practicable after the end of such 12-month
period.
