NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, it is agreed as follows:
1. GRANT OF OPTION.
(a) Option. On the terms and conditions stated below, the Company hereby grants to the Optionee the option to purchase «Number_Shares» («Number_Shares») Common Shares for the sum of «Exercise Price», per Common Share (the “Exercise Price”), which is agreed to be the closing price of a Common Share on the day of grant, January 20, 2005.

Subject to the conditions stated herein, this option shall become exercisable on January 1, 2008.

The Company shall cause such certificate or certificates to be delivered to or upon the order of the person exercising this option.
5. PAYMENT FOR COMMON SHARES.

Except as otherwise stated herein, the option granted hereunder may be exercised until the earliest to occur of the following dates to the extent so specified:
(a) In the event the Optionee’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, the option to the extent not yet exercised shall be immediately terminated and forfeited. “Cause” means (i) an act of embezzlement, fraud or theft, (ii) the deliberate disregard of the rules of the Company or a Subsidiary, (iii) any unauthorized disclosure of any of the secrets or confidential information of the Company or a Subsidiary, (iv) any conduct which constitutes unfair competition with the Company or a Subsidiary or (v) inducing any customers of the Company or a Subsidiary to breach any contracts with the Company or a Subsidiary.

2
month after the date of such termination, but only to the extent that the option is otherwise exercisable under the terms of the Plan on the date of such termination unless the Committee in its sole discretion determines that a shorter time frame is appropriate. Stock options which are not exercisable on the date of such termination will be forfeited.
(c) In the event the Optionee’s employment is terminated before age 65 by reason of retirement on or after the date that the Optionee becomes eligible for an Early Retirement Pension under the terms of a Company sponsored retirement plan, the option to the extent not yet exercised may be exercised for a period of twelve months after the date of such early retirement, but only to the extent that the option is otherwise exercisable under the Plan on the date of such termination. Stock options not exercisable on the date of Early Retirement will be forfeited as of the date of Early Retirement.

8. NO REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, register or qualify the sale of Common Shares under the Securities Act or any other applicable law.

9. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF SHARES.
(a) Restrictions. Regardless of whether the offering and sale of Common Shares under the Plan have been registered under the Securities Act or have been registered or qualified under the securities laws of any state, the Company may impose restrictions upon the sale, pledge or other transfer of such Common Shares (including the placement of appropriate legends on stock certificates) if, in the judgment of the Company and its counsel, such restrictions are necessary or desirable in order to achieve compliance with the Securities Act, the securities laws of any state or any other law or with restrictions imposed by the Company’s underwriters.
(b) Investment Intent at Exercise. In the event that the sale of Common Shares under the Plan is not registered under the Securities Act but an exemption is available which requires an investment representation or other representation, the Optionee shall represent and agree at the time of exercise that the Common Shares being acquired upon exercising this option are being acquired for investment, and not with a view to the sale or distribution thereof, and shall make such other representations as are deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company and its counsel.

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”
(d) Removal of Legends. If, in the opinion of the Company and its counsel, any legend placed on a stock certificate representing Common Shares sold under this Agreement is no longer required, the holder of such certificate shall be entitled to exchange such certificate for a certificate representing the same number of Common Shares but lacking such legend.

(e) Administration. Any determination by the Company and its counsel in connection with any of the matters set forth in this Section 9 shall be conclusive and binding on the Optionee and all other persons.
10. SHARES AND ADJUSTMENTS.
(a) General. In the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Common Shares, a declaration of a dividend payable in Common Shares, a declaration of a dividend payable in a form other than Common Shares in an amount that has a material effect on the price of Common Shares, a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of Common Shares, a recapitalization, a spinoff or a similar occurrence, the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments in one or both of (i) the number of Common Shares covered by this option or (ii) the Exercise Price.

Share withholding shall be available to the extent provided in Section 14.2 of the Plan.
(b) Rights as a Stockholder. Neither the Optionee nor the Optionee’s representative shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Common Shares subject
