          "10.  AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN. The Board of Directors of the
     Company may at any time  suspend,  amend or terminate  the Plan;  provided,
     however,  that except as  permitted  in Section 13 hereof,  no amendment or
     modification of the Plan which would:

                    (a)  increase the maximum  aggregate  number of shares as to
     which options may be granted  hereunder  (except as contemplated in Section
     5); or





                    (b)  reduce  the  option  price  or  change  the  method  of
     determining the option price; or

                    (c)  increase the time for exercise of options to be granted
     or those which are outstanding beyond a term of ten (10) years; or

                    (d)  change the  designation  of the  employees  or class of
     employees eligible to receive options under this Plan; or

                    (e)   otherwise   materially   increase   the   benefits  to
     participants  under this Plan,  may be adopted  unless with the approval of

     of a holder of an option,  terminate  such option or adversely  affect such
     holder's rights with respect to such option in any material respect."

otherwise amended herein,  the Plan shall remain unchanged and in full force and
effect.

          IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the  Company has caused  this  instrument  to be
executed by its duly authorized officer this 24th day of August, 2002.
