form of Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement.  The forms of these award
agreements are filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2, Exhibit 10.3 and Exhibit 10.4

the officer is employed by the Company on each such date (subject to certain

Amended and Restated 1999 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan and a copy of the

that Mr. Davies is employed by the Company on each such date (subject to
certain exceptions).  In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the

period will end, unless the award is either assumed or equitable substitution
is made therefor.  A copy of Mr. Davies' form of Restricted Stock Award
