WHEREAS, the Company has previously entered in a nonqualified stock option
agreement under the Company's Performance Stock Option Plan, dated November 19,
1999 as amended effective as of December 13, 2000 (the "Agreement");
WHEREAS, the Company desires to amend the Agreement to change the accounting

WHEREAS, the Optionee desires to amend the Agreement to secure the benefits of
the Amendment;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and the Optionee agree as follows:
The following amendments to the Agreement shall be effective as of the

an underwritten public offering of such Common Stock that is consummated on or
before December 31, 2001 (the "IPO").
1. Section 2 of the Agreement is amended to read in its entirety as
follows:
"Section 2. Vesting and Exercisability
(a) Vesting. Following the 2000 Fiscal Year of the
Company, there shall be no performance targets for
the vesting of the option and, subject to the
provisions of Section 9, the remaining unvested and
unexercisable portion of the option shall become
fully vested solely upon consummation of the IPO.
Notwithstanding the vesting of the option in
accordance with this Section 2(a), the option shall
not become exercisable other than in accordance with
the provisions of Section 2(b) and 2(c) hereof.
(b) Exercisability. Upon the occurrence of the IPO, the
option shall become exercisable in accordance with the
following schedule:
7,809.6 shares upon the expiration of the underwriters'

7,809.6 shares on December 31, 2001, or if later, upon
expiration of the Lock-Up Period;
7,809.6 shares on December 31, 2002;
7,809.5 shares on December 31, 2003;
Each of the foregoing dates shall hereinafter be referred to as
an "Exercisability Date".
(c) Change of Control Acceleration. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary, the option shall become fully
vested and exercisable on the date on which HWH Capital
Partners, L.P. and its affiliates (collectively, "HWP")
have disposed of 75% or more of its ownership position.
(d) Expiration of Option. The option shall terminate and
cease to be exercisable on the tenth anniversary of the
date of grant thereof.
2. Section 4 of the Agreement is amended in its entirety to read
as follows:
"Section 4. Termination of Employment
Exercisability. If a grantee's employment with the Company
terminates for any reason, other than by reason of the
grantee's death or disability, the Exercisability Dates
under Section 2(b) shall be of no further force or effect
and the then-vested and non-exercisable portion of the
option shall instead become exercisable at a rate of 25%
for four years following the expiration of such grantee's
"Hiatus Lock-Up Period", beginning on the first
anniversary of the expiration of such period, and ending
on the fourth anniversary of such period; provided,
however, that the option shall become fully exercisable by
December 1, 2009. Upon termination of a grantee's
employment by reason of death or disability, the
provisions of this Section 4 shall be inapplicable, and
such grantee's option shall continue to become exercisable
in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(b).
For purposes of this Section 4, "Hiatus Lock-Up Period" shall
mean, in the case of an employee terminating employment more than one year after
the IPO, the two-year period immediately following his termination, and, in the
case of an employee terminating employment within one year after the IPO, the
three-year period immediately following his termination.
