shares, the shares immediately shall be forfeited to the Company.

contained in this Agreement, nor the granting of the Restricted Stock Award
hereunder, shall be construed as giving the Participant or any other person
any

officer, employee or agent thereof, except for those rights as are herein
provided. Under no circumstances shall this Agreement be construed as an express
or implied contract of continuing employment for the Participant, nor shall

or
any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, to continue the employment of the
Participant.
