provided shall be subject to the following express conditions precedent:

except that (i) in the event of the death of the Optionee after the
Granting Date and while a Director of the Corporation, or within
three months after the termination of his services as a Director
either as a result of a vote of stockholders or otherwise, the
Option may be exercised (to the extent that the Optionee was entitled
to do so at the date of his death) at any time within one year after
his death by the executors or administrators of the Optionee or by
any person who shall have acquired the Option from the Optionee by
bequest of inheritance, and (ii) in the event of the termination
(otherwise than by reason of death) after the Granting Date of the

as a Director) at any time within three months after such termination
but not thereafter; provided, however, that in no event may the
Option be exercised after the expiration of the term of the Option.

kind of shares of the Company through reorganization, recapitalization,
reclassification, stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock split, upon
proper authorization of the Board of Directors, an appropriate and
proportionate adjustment shall be made in the number and type of Optional
Shares.
6. Investment Covenant. The Optionee represents, covenants and
agrees that, unless the Optioned Shares shall have been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or other Federal or state statutes in
effect at the time of purchase, such Optioned Shares will be acquired by the
Optionee for investment for his own account and not with a view to
distribution and agrees to execute such other and further instruments as may
be required to evidence such investment intent.
7. Right of Cancellation. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
of this Agreement, this Option may be canceled by the Board of Directors at
any time prior to the exercise thereof if the Board determines that the
Optionee has at any time prior to, or after, the date hereof intentionally
committed an act materially inimical to the interests of the Corporation or
