shares as to which the Optionee desires to exercise the Option and the date on
which the Optionee desires to complete the transaction, which shall not be more

for the Company such a representation is not required in order to comply with

the Optionee&#146;s present intention to acquire the shares for investment and not
with a view to distribution.&#160; On or
before the date specified for completion of the purchase of shares pursuant to
the Option, the Optionee must have paid the Company the full purchase price of
such shares in cash, or in shares of Common Stock of the Company previously
acquired and held by the optionee for at least six months and valued at fair
market value of the Common Stock of the Company on the date of exercise, or in

shareholder until a certificate for shares is issued to the Optionee.&#160; The Optionee shall, upon notification of the
amount due, if any, and prior to or concurrently with delivery of the
certificates representing the shares with respect to which the Option was
exercised, pay to the Company amounts necessary to satisfy any applicable
federal, state and local withholding tax requirements.&#160; If additional withholding becomes required
beyond any amount deposited before delivery of the certificates, the Optionee
shall pay such amount to the Company on demand.</p>
