Company's then outstanding voting securities;


(ii) Individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute
the Board of Directors (the "Incumbent Board"), cease for any

that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date
hereof whose election, or nomination for election by the
Company's stockholders, is approved by a vote of at least a
majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board

initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or
threatened election contest relating to the election of the
directors of the Company, as such terms are used Rule 14a-11 of

(iii) The stockholders of the Company approve a merger
or consolidation with any other corporation, other than

in the voting securities of the Company outstanding

the Company or such other entity outstanding immediately
after such merger or consolidation, and

complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale
or other disposition by the Company of all or substantially all
of the Company's assets.


Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Paragraph (c), a Change in Control shall not be deemed to have occurred (1) if the "person" described in the preceding provisions of this Paragraph, is an underwriter or underwriting syndicate that has acquired the ownership of 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding voting securities solely in connection with a public offering of the Company's securities or (2) if the "person" described in the preceding provisions of this Paragraph is an employee stock ownership plan or other employee benefit plan maintained by the Company (or any of its affiliated companies) that is qualified under the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

(c) If, on or before termination of the Plan, any shares of Common Stock subject to an Award shall not be issued or transferred and shall cease to be issuable or transferable for any reason, or if such shares shall have been reacquired by the Company pursuant to restrictions imposed on such shares under the Plan, the shares not so issued or transferred and the shares so reacquired shall not longer be charged against the limitation provided for in Paragraph (a) of this Section 1.3 and may be again made the subject of Awards under this plan.
