2.             Exercisability.   This option shall be exercisable as to 20 percent of the shares granted pursuant to this Agreement on each of the first, second, third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date of this Agreement. This option shall remain exercisable as to all of such shares until _________________(but not later than ten years from the date this option is granted) unless this option has expired or terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions hereof.  Shares as to which this option becomes exercisable pursuant to the foregoing provision may be purchased at any time prior to expiration of this option.
 
3.             Exercise of Option .  This option shall be exercised by written notice delivered to the Company stating the number of shares with respect to which this option is being exercised.  Payment of the exercise price shall be made either (i) in cash (including check, bank draft or money order), or (ii) with the consent of the Company's Board of Directors, by delivering shares of common stock already owned by Optionee valued at fair market value as of the closing date, or (iii) by a combination of these forms of payment; provided, however, that no common stock already owned by Optionee which is "statutory option stock" as defined in Section 424(c)(3) of the Code may be delivered in payment of the exercise price if the applicable holding period requirements for such common stock under Section 422(a)(1) or 423(a)(1) of the Code have not been met at the time of exercise.  Not less than 10 shares may be purchased at any one time unless the number purchased is the total number which may be purchased under this option and in no event may the option be exercised with respect to fractional shares.
