the option price and in the number or kind of shares of the Company's Common

inconsistent with this Stock Option Plan.

optionee, cancel any option granted under this Stock Option Plan. In the
event of any such cancellation, the Board of Directors may authorize the
granting of new options (which may or may not cover the same number of shares
which had been the subject of any prior option) in such manner, at such
option price and subject to the same terms, conditions and discretions as,
under this Stock Option Plan, would have been applicable had the cancelled
options not been granted.

Directors, which may from time to time delegate all or any part of its
authority under this Stock Option Plan to a committee appointed by the Board
of Directors. To the extent of such delegation, references in this Stock
Option Plan to the Board of Directors shall also refer to the committee. The
majority of the committee shall constitute a quorum, and the action of a
majority of the members of the committee present at any meeting at which a
