      approval of the Committee, you may exercise the Option by (i) tendering to
      the

      transfer, or (ii) surrendering a sufficient portion of the vested Option based
      on the difference between the exercise price of the Option and the Fair Market
      Value at the time of exercise of the Shares subject to the Option, or (iii)

      combination of (i) and/or (ii) and cash, together having a Fair Market Value
      equal to the exercise price of the Shares with respect to which the Option
      is
      exercised. For this purpose, any Shares so tendered or withheld shall be deemed
      to have a Fair Market Value as determined under the Plan.</font></div>

      provided in SECTIONS 3 and 4 or as may be provided in the Plan. Except as
      otherwise provided below in SECTIONS 3 or 4 which provide for accelerated
      vesting under certain circumstances, the Option shall become exercisable with
      respect to 33-1/3 percent of the total number of Shares covered by the Option

      to time, in whole or in part, until the Option Term expires, subject to the
      terms of this Agreement and the Plan.</font></div>
