the Optionee.

 

      1.2 Number of Shares. The number of Shares that the Optionee can purchase

      1.5 Type of Option. The Option is intended to qualify as a Non-Qualified

consistent with, and subject to, the provisions of the Plan (the provisions of

which are incorporated herein by reference) and, except as otherwise expressly

set forth herein, the capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the

same definitions as set forth in the Plan. Where the provisions of this

Agreement and the Plan conflict, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

 

      1.7 Condition. The Option is conditioned on the Optionee's execution of

this Agreement. If this Agreement is not executed by the Optionee it may be

canceled by the Committee.

 

2.     Duration.

 

      The Option shall be exercisable to the extent and in the manner provided

herein during the Exercise Period, which is set forth above; provided, however,

that the Option may be earlier terminated as provided in the Plan or in Section

last day of the fifteenth calendar month following the month in which the death

of the Optionee occurs, whereafter, the remaining unexercised portion of such

Option shall terminate Under these circumstances, any unexercised and vested

portion of the Option will be exercisable at any time prior to such termination

by the Optionee's estate, or by such person or persons who have acquired the

right to exercise the Option by bequest or by inheritance or by reason of the

death of the Optionee.

exercised by the Optionee on or before the last day of the fifteenth calendar

month following the month in which the Date of Disability occurred, whereafter,

discretion; (iii) materia
