b. Exercise Procedure; Payment of Purchase Price. Subject to the
conditions set forth in this Agreement, this option may only be exercised by the
Optionee's delivery or written notice of exercise to the Treasurer of the
Company at its principal office specifying the number of shares to be purchased

Optionee may purchase fewer than the total number of shares covered hereby,
provided that no partial exercise of this option may be for any fractional share

the Optionee, at the time he or she exercises this option, is, and has been at
all times since the date of grant of this option, a director of the Company.
d. Termination of Relationship with the Company. If the Optionee
ceases to be a director of the Company for any reason, then the right to
exercise this option shall terminate one year after such cessation (but in no
event on or after the Expiration Date), provided that this option shall be

option on the date of such cessation.
e. Exercise Period Upon Death or Disability. If the Optionee dies or
becomes disabled (within the meaning of Section 22 (e) (3) of the Code or any
successor provision thereto) while he is a director, this option shall be
exercisable within the period of one year following the date of death or
disability of the Optionee (but in no event on or after the Expiration Date) by
the Optionee or by the person to whom this option is transferred by will, by the
laws of descent and distribution, or by written notice filed pursuant to Section
3 (f) of this Agreement, provided that this option shall be exercisable only to
the extent that this option was exercisable by the Optionee on the date of his
or her death or disability. Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the
term "Optionee", as used in this option, shall be deemed to include the estate
of the Optionee or any person who acquires the right to exercise this option by
bequest or inheritance or otherwise by reason of the death of the Optionee.

Company, may designate one or more persons (and from time to time change such
designation) including his legal representative, who, by reason or the
director's death, shall acquire the right to exercise all or a portion of this
option in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(e) of this Agreement.
4. Delivery of Shares; Compliance with Securities Laws, etc.
a. General. The Company shall, upon payment of the option price for
the number of shares purchased and paid for, make prompt delivery of such shares

take any action with respect to such shares before the issuance thereof, then
the date of delivery of such shares shall be extended for the period necessary
to complete such action.
b. Listing, Qualification, etc. This option shall be subject to the
requirements that if, at any time, counsel to the Company shall determine that
the listing, registration or qualification of the shares subject hereto upon any
securities exchange or under any state or
Page 2
federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental or regulatory body,
or that the disclosure of non-public information or the satisfaction of any
other condition is necessary as a condition of, or in connection with, the
issuance or purchase of shares hereunder, this option may not be exercised, in
whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or
approval, disclosure or satisfaction of such other condition shall have been
effected or obtained on terms acceptable to the Board of Directors. Nothing
herein shall be deemed to require the Company to apply for, effect or obtain
such listing, registration, qualification or disclosure, or to satisfy such
other condition.
5. Non transferability of Option. Except as provided in Sections 3(e)
and 3(f) of this Agreement, this option is personal and no rights or benefits
granted hereunder may be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any
way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) nor shall any such rights or
benefits be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any
attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this
option or of such rights or benefits contrary to the provisions hereof, or upon
the levy of any attachment or similar process upon this option or such rights
and benefits, this option and such rights or benefits shall, at the election of
the Company, become null and void.
6. Limitation of Rights.
(a) No Right to Continue as a Director. Neither this Agreement nor any
other action taken pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute or be evidence of
any agreement or understanding, express or implied, that the Company will retain
the Optionee for any period of time.
(b) No Stockholders' Rights for Options. The Optionee shall have no
rights as a stockholder with respect to the shares covered by this option
(including, without limitation, any rights to receive dividends or non-cash
distributions with respect to such shares) until the date of the issuance to him
of a stock certificate therefor. No adjustment shall be made for dividends or
other rights (except as provided in Section 7 of this Agreement) for which the
record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued.
7. Changes in Common Stock.
(a) If the outstanding shares of common stock are increased, decreased or
exchanged for a different kind or number of shares or other securities, or if
additional shares or new or different shares or other securities are distributed
with respect to such shares of Common Stock or other securities, through merger,
consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company,
reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split,
reverse stock split or other distribution with respect to such shares of Common
Stock, or other securities, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment will be
made in (i) the maximum number and kind of shares reserved for issuance under
the Plan, (ii) the number and kind of shares or other securities subject to then
outstanding options under the Plan and (iii) the price for each share subject to
any then outstanding options under the Plan, without changing the aggregate
Page 3
purchase price as to which such options remain exercisable. No fractional shares
will be issued under the Plan on account of any such adjustments.
(b) In the event that the Company is merged or consolidated into or with
another corporation (in which consolidation or merger, the stockholders of the
Company receive distributions of cash or securities of another issuer as a
result thereof), or in the event that all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company are acquired by any other person or entity, or in the event of a
reorganization or liquidation of the Company, the Board of Directors of the
Company, or the board of directors of any corporation assuming the obligations
of the Company, shall, as to outstanding options, either (i) provide that such
options shall be assumed, or equivalent options shall be substituted, by the
acquiring or successor corporation (or an affiliate thereof), or (ii) upon
written notice to the optionees, provide that all unexercised options will
terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such merger, consolidation,
acquisition, reorganization or liquidation unless exercised by the optionee
within a specified number of days following the date of such notice.
8. Withholding Taxes. The Company's obligation to deliver shares upon
the exercise of this option shall be subject to the Optionee's satisfaction of
all applicable federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding
requirements.
9. Miscellaneous.

otherwise modified unless evidenced in writing and signed by the Company and the
Optionee.

the parties at their respective addresses set forth beneath their names below or
at such other address as may be designated in writing by either of the parties
to one another.

laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
