                  (i) The Board may appoint a Committee consisting of not less
than two members of the Board to administer the Plan on behalf of the Board,
subject to such terms and conditions as the Board may prescribe. Once appointed,
the Committee shall continue to serve until otherwise directed by the Board.
Members of the Board who are either eligible for Options or have been granted
Options may vote on any matters affecting the administration of the Plan or the
grant of any Options pursuant to the Plan, except that no such member shall act
upon the granting of an Option to himself, but any such member may be counted in
determining the existence of a quorum at any meeting of the Board during which
action is taken with respect to the granting of Options to him.

                  (ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing subparagraph (i), if and in
any event the Company registers any class of any equity security pursuant to
Section 12 of the Exchange Act, any grants of Options to officers or directors
shall only be made by the Board, if each member of the Board is a Disinterested
Person; provided, however, if each member of the Board is not a Disinterested
Person, then grants of Options to officers or directors shall only be made by a
Committee of two or more directors, each of whom is a Disinterested Person.

                  (iii) Subject to the foregoing subparagraphs (i) and (ii),
from time to time the Board may increase the size of the Committee and appoint
additional members thereof, remove members (with or without cause) and appoint
new members in substitution therefor, fill vacancies however caused, or remove
all members of the Committee and thereafter directly administer the Plan.

            (b) Powers of the Committee. Subject to the provisions of the Plan,
the Committee shall have the authority, in its discretion: (i) to grant
Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options except to officers of the
Corporation; (ii) to recommend to the Board grants of Incentive Stock Options or
Nonstatutory Stock Options to officers of the Corporation; (iii) to recommend to
the Board, upon review of relevant information and in accordance with Section
8(b) of the Plan, the fair market value of the Common Stock; (iv) to recommend
to the Board the exercise price per share of Options to be granted, which
exercise price shall be determined in accordance with Section 8(a) of the Plan;
(v) to determine the Employees or Consultants to whom, and the time or times at
which, Options shall be granted and the number of shares to be represented by
each Option; (vi) to interpret the Plan; (vii) to prescribe, amend and rescind
rules and regulations relating to the Plan; (viii) to determine the terms and
provisions of each Option granted (which need not be identical) and, with the
consent of the holder thereof, modify or amend each Option; (ix) to defer (with
the consent of the Optionee) the exercise date of any Option, consistent with
the provisions of Section 5 of the Plan; (x) to authorize any person to execute
on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effectuate the grant of an
Option previously granted by the Board; and (xi) to make all other
determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

            (c) Effect of Committee's Decision. All decisions, determinations
and interpretations of the Committee, with the exception of recommendations to
the Board, shall be final and binding on all Optionees and any other holders of
any Options granted under the Plan.

      5. Eligibility.

            (a) Nonstatutory Stock Options may be granted only to Employees and
Consultants. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. An
Employee or Consultant who has been granted an Option may, if he is otherwise
eligible, be granted an additional Option or Options.

            (b) In the event that stock options designated as Incentive Stock
Options have been granted to an Employee which, when aggregated with all other
incentive stock options granted to such Employee by the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary, would result in Shares having an aggregate fair market value
(determined for each Share as of the date of grant of the Option covering such
Share) in excess of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) becoming first
available for purchase upon exercise of one or more incentive stock options
during any calendar year any options in excess of that amount shall be treated
for all purposes as Nonstatutory Stock Options.

            (c) Section 5(b) of the Plan shall apply only to an Incentive Stock
Option evidenced by an "Incentive Stock Option Agreement" which sets forth the
intention of the Company and the Optionee that such Option shall qualify as an
Incentive Stock Option. Section 5(b) of the Plan shall not apply to any Option
evidenced by a "Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement" which sets forth the
intention of the Company and the Optionee that such Option shall be a
Nonstatutory Stock Option.

            (d) The Plan shall not confer upon any Optionee any right with
respect to continuation of employment or consulting relationship with the
Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with his right or the Company's right
to terminate his employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or
without cause.

      6. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur
of its adoption by the Board or its approval by the stockholders of the Company
as described in Section 17 of the Plan. It shall continue in effect for a term
of 10 years unless sooner terminated under Section 13 of the Plan. Termination
of the Plan shall not affect the obligations of the Company or the rights of
Optionees pursuant to Options outstanding on the date of termination.

      7. Term of Option. The term of each Incentive Stock Option shall be 10
years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in
the Incentive Stock Option Agreement. The term of each Nonstatutory Stock Option
shall be 10 years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be
provided in the Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement. However,
