         WHEREAS, the Board believes that it is in the best interest of the
Corporation that it amend the Option Agreement so that it is vested in full on
the date this Amendment was approved by the Board.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties
hereto hereby agree as follows:

         1. Section 3 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following section:

                  3. Right to Exercise. This Option may be exercised in whole or
         in part at any time after the Grant Date.

         2. Except as expressly provided herein, the Option Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect.

         3. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts and
delivered via facsimile, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but
all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

         4. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to the laws that
might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof,
except to the extent that the Indiana Business Corporation Law shall apply to
the internal corporate governance of the Corporation.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation and Holder have caused this
Amendment to be signed all as of the date first written above.
