Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this option may be exercised in whole or in part nine years and nine months after the date of grant, <U>provided</U> that this option may be exercised one year after the date of grant if the Optionee has attended during such year at least 75% of the aggregate of the number of meetings of the Board of Directors and the number of meetings held by all committees of the Board of Directors on which he or she then served.  If this option is not exercised in full, it shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, with respect to all shares not so purchased at any time prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below) or the earlier termination of this option.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)   <U>Exercisable Procedure</U>.  Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, this option may only be exercised by the Optionee'&nbsp;s delivery of written notice of exercise to the Treasurer of the Company at its principal office, specifying the number of shares to be purchased and the purchase price to be paid therefor and accompanied by (i) payment in cash of the full consideration for the shares as to which it is exercised or (ii) an irrevocable undertaking by a broker to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price or delivery of irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company cash or a check sufficient to pay the exercise price.  Such exercise shall be effective upon receipt by the Treasurer of the Company of such written notice together with the required payment, undertaking, or instructions.  The Optionee may purchase fewer than the total number of shares covered hereby, provided that no partial exercise of this option may be for any fractional share or for fewer than ten whole shares.</P>

<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)   <U>Listing, Qualification, Etc</U>.
