then such committee shall consist of two or more members of the Board, each of
whom shall each qualify as a "non-employee director" within the meaning of Rule
16b-3 of the Exchange Act and also qualify as an "outside director" within the
meaning of Section l62(m) of the Code and regulations pursuant thereto. For

provisions of the Plan and to decide all questions of fact arising in its
application. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, the Committee
shall have authority to select the persons to whom Awards shall be made under
the Plan; to determine whether and to what extent Awards shall be made under the
Plan; to determine the types of Award to be made and the amount, size, terms and

adopt, alter and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices

other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration and
interpretation of the Plan. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the
contrary, in the event that the Committee determines that it is advisable to
grant Awards which shall not qualify for the exception for performance-based
compensation from the tax deductibility limitations of Section 162(m) of the
Code, the Committee may make such grants or Awards, or may amend the Plan to
provide for such grants or Awards, without satisfying the requirements of
Section 162(m) of the Code.





                                      -3-




        Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee also
shall have authority in its sole discretion to vary the terms of the Plan to the
extent necessary to comply with foreign, federal, state or local law or to meet
the objectives of the Plan. The Committee may, where appropriate, establish one
or more sub-plans for this purpose.

        All decisions made by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan
shall be final and binding on all persons who participate in the Plan.

        All expenses and liabilities incurred by the Committee in the
administration and interpretation of the Plan shall be borne by the Company. The
Committee may employ attorneys, consultants, accountants or other persons in
connection with the administration and interpretation of the Plan. The Company,
and its officers and directors, shall be entitled to rely upon the advice,
opinions or valuations of any such persons.

        Section 4. Common Stock Subject to the Plan.

        4.1 Share Reserve. Subject to the following provisions of this Section 4
and to such adjustment as may be made pursuant to Section 22, the maximum number
of shares available for issuance under the Plan shall be equal to 2,000,000
shares of Common Stock.; provided that, if the number of issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock of the Company is increased to more than 20,000,000
shares after the effective date of this Plan, the maximum number of shares of
Stock for which Awards may be granted under the Plan shall be increased by ten
percent (10%) of the amount by which such issued and outstanding shares of
Common Stock of the Company exceeds 20,000,000. During the terms of the Awards
under the Plan, the Company shall keep available at all times the number of
shares of Common Stock required to satisfy such Awards.

        4.2 Source of Shares. Such shares may consist in whole or in part of
authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares or any combination thereof as
the Committee may determine. Except as otherwise provided herein, any shares
subject to an option or right granted or awarded under the Plan which for any
reason expires or is terminated unexercised, becomes unexercisable, or is
forfeited or otherwise terminated, surrendered or cancelled as to any shares, or
if any shares are not delivered because an Award under the Plan is settled in
cash or the shares are used to satisfy the applicable tax withholding
obligation, such shares shall not be deemed to have been delivered for purposes
of determining the maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for
issuance under the Plan and shall again become eligible for issuance under the
Plan. If the exercise price of any Stock Option granted under the Plan is
satisfied by tendering shares of Common Stock to the Company (whether by actual
delivery or by attestation and whether or not such surrendered shares were
acquired pursuant to any Award granted under the Plan), only the number of
shares of Common Stock issued net of the shares of Common Stock tendered shall
be deemed delivered for purposes of determining the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan. No Awards may be granted
following the end of the Term of the Plan.

        4.3 Code Section 162(m) Limitation. The total number of shares of Common
Stock for which Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted to
any employee during any 12 month period shall not exceed 1,000,000 shares in the




                                      -4-



aggregate (as adjusted pursuant to Section 22). The total number of shares of
Common Stock for which Restricted Stock Awards, Deferred Stock Awards, Stock
Bonus Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards that are subject to the attainment of
performance criteria in order to protect against the loss of deductibility under
Section 162(m) of the Code may be granted to any employee during any twelve
month period shall not exceed 1,000,000 shares in the aggregate, subject to
adjustment pursuant to Section 22. This Section 4.3 shall not apply prior to the
Listing Date.

        Section 5. Eligibility to Receive Awards. An Award may be granted to any
employee, director, or officer of, or key adviser or consultant to, the Company
or any Subsidiary, who is responsible for or contributes to the management,
growth or success of the Company or any Subsidiary, provided that bona fide
services shall be rendered by consultants or advisers to the Company or its
Subsidiaries and, unless otherwise approved by the Committee, such services must
not be in connection with the offer and sale of securities in a capital-raising
transaction and must not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for
the Company's securities. Subject to the preceding sentence and Section 6.9, the
Committee shall have the sole authority to select the persons to whom an Award
is to be granted hereunder and to determine what type of Award is to be granted
to each such person. No person shall have any right to participate in the Plan.
Any person selected by the Committee for participation during any one period
will not by virtue of such participation have the right to be selected as a
Participant for any other period.

        Section 6. Stock Options. A Stock Option may be an Incentive Stock Option
or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Only employees of the Company or any Parent
Company or Subsidiary of the Company are eligible to receive Incentive Stock
Options. To the extent that any Stock Option does not qualify as an Incentive
Stock Option, it shall constitute a separate Non-Qualified Stock Option. Stock
Options may be granted alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the
Plan. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 6.9, the terms and
conditions of each Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be specified by the
Committee, in its sole discretion, and shall be set forth in a written Stock
Option agreement between the Company and the Participant in such form as the
Committee shall approve from time to time or as may be reasonably required in
view of the terms and conditions approved by the Committee from time to time. No
person shall have any rights under any Stock Option granted under the Plan
unless and until the Company and the person to whom such Stock Option shall have
been granted shall have executed and delivered an agreement expressly granting
the Stock Option to such person and containing provisions setting forth the
terms and conditions of the Stock Option. The Committee shall issue separate
Stock Option agreements for each Non-Qualified Stock Option and Incentive Stock
Option. The terms and conditions of each Incentive Stock Option shall be such
that each Incentive Stock Option issued hereunder shall constitute and shall be
treated as an "incentive stock option" as defined in Section 422 of the Code.
The terms and conditions of each Non-Qualified Stock Option will be such that
each Non-Qualified Stock Option issued hereunder shall not constitute nor be
treated as an "incentive stock option" as defined in Section 422 of the Code or
an option described in Section 423(b) of the Code and will be a "non-qualified
stock option" for federal income tax purposes. The terms and conditions of any
Stock Option granted hereunder need not be identical to those of any other Stock
Option granted hereunder. The Stock Option agreements shall contain in substance
the following terms and conditions and may contain such additional terms and
conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall
deem desirable.





                                      -5-




        6.1 Type of Option. Each Stock Option agreement shall identify the Stock
Option represented thereby as an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock
Option, as the case may be.

        6.2 Option Price. The Incentive Stock Option exercise price shall be fixed
by the Committee but shall in no event be less than 100% (or 110% in the case of
an employee referred to in Section 6.8(ii) below) of the Fair Market Value of
the shares of Common Stock subject to the Incentive Stock Option on the date the
Incentive Stock Option is granted. The Non-Qualified Stock Option exercise price
shall be fixed by the Committee and may be equal to, more than or less than 100%
of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject to the
Non-Qualified Stock Option at the time the Stock Option is granted, but in no
event less than the par value of the Common Stock.

        6.3 Exercise Term. Each Stock Option agreement shall state the period or
periods of time within which the Stock Option may be exercised, in whole or in
part, which shall be such period or periods of time as may be determined by the
Committee, provided that no Stock Option shall be exercisable after ten years
from the date of grant thereof (or, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option
granted to an employee referred to in Section 6.8(ii) below, such term shall in
no event exceed five years from the date on which such Incentive Stock Option is
granted). The Committee shall have the power to permit an acceleration of
previously established exercise upon such circumstances and subject to such
terms and conditions as the Committee deems appropriate.

        6.4 Payment for Shares. A Stock Option shall be deemed to be exercised when
written notice of such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with
the terms of the Stock Option agreement by the Participant entitled to exercise
the Stock Option and full payment for the shares of Common Stock with respect to
which the Stock Option is exercised has been received by the Company. The
Committee, in its sole discretion, may permit all or part of the payment of the
exercise price to be made, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and
regulations, either: (i) in cash, by check or wire transfer, or (ii) in any
other form of legal consideration as provided for under the terms of the Stock
Option. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued to any Participant upon
exercise of a Stock Option until the Company receives full payment therefor as
described above. Upon the receipt of notice of exercise and full payment for the
shares of Common Stock, the shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been
issued and the Participant shall be entitled to receive such shares of Common
Stock and shall be a stockholder with respect to such shares, and the shares of
Common Stock shall be considered fully paid and nonassessable. However,
Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder prior to such time at which
certificates representing such Common Stock have been delivered to the
Participant. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which
the record date is prior to the date on which the Common Stock is issued, except
as provided in Section 22 of the Plan. Each exercise of a Stock Option shall
reduce, by an equal number, the total number of shares of Common Stock that may
thereafter be purchased under such Stock Option.

        6.5 Rights upon Termination. Except as otherwise set forth in the
Participant's Stock Option agreement, in the event that a Participant's service
with the Company or any Subsidiary, whether as an employee, officer, director,




                                      -6-



adviser or consultant, terminates for any reason, other than death or
Disability, any rights of the Participant under any Stock Option shall
immediately terminate; provided, however, that the Participant (or any successor
or legal representative) shall have the right to exercise the Stock Option to
the extent that the Stock Option was exercisable at the time of termination,
until the earlier of (i) the date that is three months after the effective date
of such termination, or such other date as determined by the Committee in its
sole discretion, or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Stock Option.

        In the event that a Participant's service terminates because such
Participant dies or suffers a Disability prior to the expiration of the Stock
Option and without the Participant's having fully exercised the Stock Option,
the Participant or his or her successor or legal representative shall be fully
vested in the Stock Option and shall have the right to exercise the Stock Option
within the next 12 months following such event, or such other period as
determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, but not later than the
expiration of the term of the Stock Option.

        6.6 Exercise of Unvested Options. The Stock Option agreement may, but need
not, include a provision whereby the Participant may elect at any time before
the Participant's termination to exercise the Stock Option as to any part or all
of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Option prior to the full
vesting of the Stock Option. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Committee may provide that if the Stock Option is exercised prior to having
fully vested, shares issued upon such exercise shall remain subject to vesting
at the same rate as under the Stock Option so exercised and shall be subject to
a right, but not an obligation, of repurchase by the Company with respect to all
unvested Shares (including any securities issued with respect to such shares in
accordance with Section 22 of the Plan) or to any other restriction the
Committee determines to be appropriate. For purposes of facilitating the
enforcement of any such right of repurchase, at the request of the Committee,
the Participant shall enter into joint escrow instructions with the Company and
deliver each certificate for his or her unvested shares of Common Stock with a
stock power, duly endorsed in blank. The Company's rights under this Section 6.6
shall be freely assignable, in whole or in part.

        6.7 Re-load Options. Without in any way limiting the authority of the
Committee to make or not to make grants of Stock Options hereunder, the
Committee shall have the authority (but not an obligation) to include as part of
any Stock Option a provision entitling the Participant to a further Stock Option
(a "Re-Load Option") in the event the Participant exercises the original Stock
Option, in whole or in part, by surrendering other shares of Common Stock in
accordance with this Plan and the terms and conditions of the Stock Option. Any
such Re-Load Option shall (i) provide for a number of shares of Common Stock
equal to the number of shares of Common Stock surrendered as part or all of the
exercise price of such Stock Option; (ii) have an expiration date which is the
same as the expiration date of the Stock Option the exercise of which gave rise
to such Re-Load Option; (iii) have an exercise price which is equal to 100% of
the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the Re-Load Option on the
date of exercise of the original Stock Option and (iii) be fully vested, unless
otherwise set forth in the Re-Load Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a
Re-Load Option shall be subject to the same exercise price and term provisions
heretofore described for Stock Options under the Plan.

        Any such Re-Load Option may be an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified
Stock Option, as the Committee may designate at the time of the grant of the
original Stock Option; provided, however, the designation of any Re-Load Option





                                      -7-



as an Incentive Stock Option shall be subject to the maximum annual limitation
on the exercisability of Incentive Stock Options described in Section 422(d) of
the Code (which amount is $100,000 as of the Effective Date). There shall be no
Re-Load Options on a Re-Load Option. Any such Re-Load Option shall be subject to
the availability of sufficient shares of Common Stock under Section 4.1 and the
limitation on the grants of Stock Options under Section 4.3 and shall be subject
to such other terms and conditions as the Committee may determine which are not
inconsistent with the express provisions of the Plan regarding the terms of
Stock Options.

        6.8 Special Incentive Stock Option Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
the case of an Incentive Stock Option, each Stock Option agreement shall contain
such other terms, conditions and provisions as the Committee determines
necessary or desirable in order to qualify such Stock Option as an Incentive
Stock Option under the Code including, without limitation, the following:

        (i) To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of
the time the Stock Option is granted) of the Common Stock, with respect to which
Incentive Stock Options granted under this Plan (and all other plans of the
Company and its Subsidiaries and Parent Company) become exercisable for the
first time by any person in any calendar year, exceeds maximum annual limitation
described in Section 422(d) of the Code (which amount is $100,000 as of the
Effective Date), such Stock Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock
Options.

        (ii) No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any employee if, at the
time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, the employee (by reason of the
attribution rules applicable under Section 424(d) of the Code) owns more than
10% of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any
Parent Company or Subsidiary unless at the time such Incentive Stock Option is
granted the Stock Option exercise price is at least 110% of the Fair Market
Value (determined as of the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the
shares of Common Stock subject to the Incentive Stock Option and such Incentive
Stock Option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five years
from the date of grant.

If an Incentive Stock Option is exercised after the expiration of the exercise
periods that apply for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, such Stock Option
shall thereafter be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

        Section 7. Stock Appreciation Rights. Stock Appreciation Rights entitle
Participants to increases in the Fair Market Value of shares of Common Stock.
The terms and conditions of each Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan
shall be specified by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and shall be set
forth in a written agreement between the Company and the Participant in such
form as the Committee shall approve from time to time or as may be reasonably
required in view of the terms and conditions approved by the Committee from time
to time. The agreements shall contain in substance the following terms and
conditions and may contain such additional terms and conditions, not
inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable.

        7.1 Award. Stock Appreciation Rights shall entitle the Participant, subject
to such terms and conditions determined by the Committee, to receive upon
exercise thereof an Award equal to all or a portion of the excess of: (i) the





                                      -8-




Fair Market Value of a specified number of shares of Common Stock at the time of
exercise over (ii) a specified price which shall not be less than 100% of the
Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the time the right is granted or, if
connected with a previously issued Stock Option, not less than 100% of the Fair
Market Value of the Common Stock at the time such Stock Option was granted. Such
amount may be paid by the Company in cash, Common Stock (valued at its then Fair
Market Value) or any combination thereof, as the Committee may determine. Stock
Appreciation Rights may be, but are not required to be, granted in connection
with a previously or contemporaneously granted Stock Option. In the event of the
exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right that is fully or partially settled in
shares of Common Stock, the number of shares reserved for issuance under this
Plan shall be reduced by the number of shares issued upon exercise of the Stock
Appreciation Right.

        7.2 Term. Each agreement shall state the period or periods of time within
which the Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised, in whole or in part,
subject to such terms and conditions prescribed for such purpose by the
Committee, provided that no Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable after
ten years from the date of grant thereof. The Committee shall have the power to
permit an acceleration of previously established exercise terms upon such
circumstances and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee deems
appropriate.

        7.3 Rights upon Termination. Except as otherwise set forth in the
Participant's Stock Appreciation Rights agreement, in the event that a
Participant's service with the Company or any Subsidiary, whether as an
employee, officer, director, adviser or consultant terminates for any reason,
other than death or Disability, any rights of the Participant under any Stock
Appreciation Right shall immediately terminate; provided, however, the
Participant (or any successor or legal representative) shall have the right to
exercise the Stock Appreciation Right to the extent that the Stock Appreciation
Right was exercisable at the time of termination, until the earlier of (i) the
date that is three months after the effective date of such termination, or such
other date as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, or (ii) the
expiration of the term of the Stock Appreciation Right.

        In the event that a Participant's service terminates because such
Participant dies or suffers a Disability prior to the expiration of his or her
Stock Appreciation Right and without having fully exercised his or her Stock
Appreciation Right, the Participant or his or her successor or legal
representative shall be fully vested in the Stock Appreciation Right and shall
have the right to exercise any Stock Appreciation Right within the next 12
months following such event, or such other period as determined by the Committee
in its sole discretion, but not later than the expiration of the Stock
Appreciation Right.

        Section 8. Restricted Stock Awards. Restricted Stock Awards shall consist
of shares of Common Stock restricted against transfer ("Restricted Stock") and
subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. The terms and conditions of each
Restricted Stock Award granted under the Plan shall be specified by the
Committee, in its sole discretion, and shall be set forth in a written agreement
between the Company and the Participant in such form as the Committee shall
approve from time to time or as may be reasonably required in view of the terms
and conditions approved by the Committee from time to time. The agreements shall
contain in substance the following terms and conditions and may contain such
additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as
the Committee shall deem desirable.






                                      -9-




        8.1 Vesting Period. Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to the
restrictions described in the preceding paragraph over such vesting period as
the Committee determines. To the extent the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate to protect against loss of deductibility pursuant to Section 162(m)
of the Code, Restricted Stock Awards to any Participant may also be subject to
certain conditions with respect to attainment of one or more preestablished
performance objectives which shall relate to corporate, subsidiary, division,
group or unit performance in terms of growth in gross revenue, earnings per
share or ratios of earnings to equity or assets, net profits, stock price,
market share, sales or costs. In order to take into account unforeseen events or
changes in circumstances, such objectives may be adjusted by the Committee in
its sole discretion; provided, to the extent the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate to protect against loss of deductibility pursuant to Section 162(m)
of the Code, such objectives may not be adjusted by the Committee to increase an
Award but only to reduce or eliminate an Award.

        8.2 Restriction upon Transfer. Shares awarded, and the right to vote such
shares and to receive dividends thereon, may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
exchanged, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered, except as herein
provided or as provided in any agreement entered into between the Company and a
Participant in connection with the Plan, during the vesting period applicable to
such shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except as otherwise provided in
the Plan, the Participant shall have all the other rights of a stockholder
including, but not limited to, the right to receive dividends and the right to
vote such shares, until such time as the Participant disposes of the shares or
forfeits the shares pursuant to the agreement relating to the Restricted Stock
Award.

        8.3 Certificates. Any stock certificate issued in respect of shares awarded
to a Participant shall be registered in the name of the Participant and
deposited with the Company, or its designee, and shall bear the following
legend:

                "The shares of stock represented by this certificate are
                subject to the terms and conditions contained in the
                NEOGENOMICS, Inc. 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended,
                and a Restricted Stock Award Agreement entered into between
                the registered owner and NEOGENOMICS, INC. Release from such
                terms and conditions shall be obtained only in accordance
                with the provisions of the Plan and Agreement, a copy of
                each of which is on file in the office of the Secretary of
                NEOGENOMICS, INC."

Each Participant, as a condition of any Restricted Stock Award, shall have
delivered a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Common Stock covered
by such Award.

        Section 9. Stock Bonus Awards. Stock Bonus Awards shall consist of awards
of shares of Common Stock. To the extent the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate to protect against the loss of deductibility pursuant to Section
162(m) of the Code, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, grant a Stock
Bonus Award based upon corporate, division, subsidiary, group or unit





                                      -10-




performance in terms of growth in gross revenue, earnings per share or ratios of
earnings to equity or assets, net profits, stock price, market share, sales or
costs or, with respect to Participants not subject to Section 162(m) of the
Code, such other measures or standards determined by the Committee in its
discretion. In order to take into account unforeseen events or changes in
circumstances, such performance objectives may be adjusted; provided, to the
extent the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to protect against loss of
deductibility pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code, such performance
objectives may not be adjusted by the Committee to increase an Award but only to
reduce or eliminate an Award.

The terms and conditions of each Stock Bonus Award granted under the Plan
shall be specified by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and shall be set
forth in a written agreement between the Company and the Participant in such
form as the Committee shall approve from time to time or as may be reasonably
required in view of the terms and conditions approved by the Committee from time
to time. In addition to any applicable performance goals, shares of Common Stock
subject to a Stock Bonus Award may be: (i) subject to additional restrictions
(including, without limitation, restrictions on transfer) or (ii) granted
directly to a person free of any restrictions, not inconsistent with the terms
of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable.

        Section 10. Deferred Stock Awards. Deferred Stock Awards under the Plan
shall entitle Participants to future payments of shares of Common Stock upon the
expiration of a specified period of time ("Deferral Period") and upon the
satisfaction of certain conditions during the Deferral Period. The terms and
conditions of each Deferred Stock Award granted under the Plan shall be
specified by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and shall be set forth in a
written agreement between the Company and the Participant in such form as the
Committee shall approve from time to time or as may be reasonably required in
view of the terms and conditions approved by the Committee from time to time.
The agreements shall contain in substance the following terms and conditions and
may contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the
terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable.

        10.1 Vesting Period. Upon the expiration of the Deferral Period (or the
Additional Deferral Period referred to in Section 10.2 below, where applicable)
with respect to each Deferred Stock Award and the satisfaction of any other
applicable limitations, terms or conditions, such Deferred Stock Award shall
become vested in accordance with the terms of the agreement relating to the
Deferred Stock Award. To the extent the Committee deems necessary or appropriate
to protect against loss of deductibility pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code,
Deferred Stock Awards to any Participant may also be subject to certain
conditions with respect to attainment of one or more preestablished performance
objectives which shall relate to corporate, subsidiary, division, group or unit
performance in terms of growth in gross revenue, earnings per share or ratios of
earnings to equity or assets, net profits, stock price, market share, sales or
costs. In order to take into account unforeseen events or changes in
circumstances, such performance objectives may be adjusted by the Committee in
its sole discretion; provided, to the extent the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate to protect against loss of deductibility pursuant to Section 162(m)
of the Code, such performance objectives may not be adjusted by the Committee to
increase an Award but only to reduce or eliminate an Award. The Participant
shall not be a stockholder with respect to any shares subject to a Deferred





                                      -11-



Stock Award until such shares vest and are issued to the Participant in
accordance with the terms of the Deferred Stock Award agreement.

        10.2 Additional Deferral Period. A Participant may request to defer (and,
based thereon, the Committee may at any time defer) the receipt of all or any
part of a Deferred Stock Award for an additional specified period or until a
specified event ("Additional Deferral Period"). Except as otherwise agreed to by
the Committee, such request must be made at least one year prior to the
expiration of the Deferral Period for such Deferred Stock Award or part thereof.

        Section 11. Other Stock-Based Awards. Other Stock-Based Awards may be
awarded, subject to limitations under applicable law and this Plan, that are
denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or
otherwise based on, or related to, shares of Common Stock, as deemed by the
Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan, including, without
limitation, purchase rights, convertible or exchangeable debentures, or other
rights convertible into shares of Common Stock and Awards valued by reference to
the value of securities of or the performance of specified Subsidiaries. Other
Stock-Based Awards may be awarded either alone or in addition to or in tandem
with any other Awards under the Plan or any other plan of the Company. The terms
and conditions of each Other Stock-Based Award granted under the Plan shall be
specified by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and shall be set forth in a
written agreement between the Company and the Participant in such form as the
Committee shall approve from time to time or as may be reasonably required in
view of the terms and conditions approved by the Committee from time to time.

        To the extent the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to protect
against loss of deductibility pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code, Other
Stock-Based Awards to any Participant may also be subject to certain conditions
with respect to attainment of one or more preestablished performance objectives
which shall relate to corporate, subsidiary, division, group or unit performance
in terms of growth in gross revenue, earnings per share or ratio of earnings to
equity or assets, net profits, stock price, market share, sales or costs. In
order to take into account unforeseen events or changes in circumstances, such
performance objectives may be adjusted; provided, to the extent the Committee
deems necessary or appropriate to protect against loss of deductibility pursuant
to Section 162(m) of the Code, such performance objectives may not be adjusted
by the Committee to increase an Award but only to reduce or eliminate an Award.

        Section 12. Loans. The Committee may, in its sole discretion and to further
the purpose of the Plan, provide for loans to persons in connection with all or
any part of an Award under the Plan. Any loan made pursuant to this Section 12
shall be evidenced by a loan agreement, promissory note or other instrument in
such form and which shall contain such terms and conditions (including without
limitation, provisions for interest, payment, schedules, collateral,
forgiveness, acceleration of such loans or parts thereof or acceleration in the
event of termination) as the Committee shall prescribe from time to time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each loan shall comply with all applicable laws,
regulations and rules of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
and any other governmental agency having jurisdiction.




                                      -12-



        Section 13. Securities Law Requirements. No shares of Common Stock shall be
issued upon the exercise or payment of any Award unless and until:

        (i) The shares of Common Stock underlying the Award have been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or the Company has
determined that an exemption from the registration requirements under the Act is
available or the registration requirements of the Act do not apply to such
exercise or payment;

        (ii) The Company has determined that all applicable listing requirements of
any stock exchange or quotation system on which the shares of Common Stock are
listed have been satisfied; and

        (iii) The Company has determined that any other applicable provision of
state or Federal law, including without limitation applicable state securities
laws, has been satisfied.

        Section 14. Restrictions on Transfer; Representations of Participant;
Legends. The Committee in its sole discretion may restrict the transferability
of shares until the Common Stock is listed on any United States securities
exchange or traded on NASDAQ or an over-the-counter quotation system in the
United States.

        Regardless of whether the offering and sale of shares of Common Stock has
been registered under the Act or has 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 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 provisions of the Act, the securities laws of any state, or
any other law. As a condition to the Participant's receipt of shares, the
Company may require the Participant to represent that such shares are being
acquired for investment, and not with a view to the sale or distribution
thereof, except in compliance with the Act, and to make such other
representations as are deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company and its
counsel. Stock certificates evidencing shares acquired pursuant to an
unregistered transaction to which the Act applies shall bear a restrictive
legend substantially in the following form and such other restrictive legends as
are required or deemed advisable under the Plan or the provisions of any
applicable law:

                "The shares represented by this certificate have not been
                registered under the Securities Act of 1993, as amended (the
                "Act"), or qualified under the securities laws of any state.
                These shares have been acquired for investment and not with
                a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution
                thereof, and may not be sold, mortgaged, pledged,
                hypothecated or otherwise transferred without an effective
                registration under the Act and qualification under any
                applicable state securities laws, or without an opinion of
                counsel acceptable to the Company and its counsel that such
                registration or qualification is not required."




                                      -13-



Any determination by the Company and its counsel in connection with any of the
matters set forth in this Section 14 shall be conclusive and binding on all
persons.

        The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, register or qualify the
sale of shares under the Act or any other applicable law.

        Section 15. Single or Multiple Agreements. Multiple forms of Awards or
combinations thereof may be evidenced by a single agreement or multiple
agreements, as determined by the Committee.

        Section 16. Rights of a Stockholder. The recipient of any Award under the
Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided by the Plan, shall have no rights as a
stockholder with respect thereto unless and until shares of Common Stock are
issued to him.

        Section 17. No Right to Continue Employment or Service. Nothing in the Plan
or any instrument executed or Award granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon
any Participant any right to continue to serve the Company, Parent Company or
any Subsidiary in the capacity in effect at the time the Award was granted or
shall affect the right of the Company, Parent Company or any Subsidiary to
terminate (i) the employment of an employee with or without notice and with or
without cause, (ii) the service of a consultant or adviser pursuant to the terms
of such consultant's or adviser's agreement with the Company, Parent Company or
any Subsidiary, if any or (iii) the service of a director pursuant to the Bylaws
of the Company, Parent Company or any Subsidiary and any applicable provisions
of the corporate law of the state in which the Company, Parent Company or any
Subsidiary is incorporated, as the case may be.

        Section 18. Withholding. The Company's obligations hereunder in connection
with any Award shall be subject to applicable foreign, federal, state and local
withholding tax requirements. Foreign, federal, state and local withholding tax
due under the terms of the Plan may be paid in cash or shares of Common Stock
(either through the surrender of already-owned shares of Common Stock that the
Participant has held for the period required to avoid a charge to the Company's
reported earnings or the withholding of shares of Common Stock otherwise
issuable upon the exercise or payment of such Award) having a Fair Market Value
equal to the required withholding and upon such other terms and conditions as
the Committee shall determine; provided, however, the Committee, in its sole
discretion, may require that such taxes be paid in cash; and provided, further,
any election by a Participant subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act to
pay his or her withholding tax in shares of Common Stock shall be subject to and
must comply with Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.

        Section 19. Indemnification. No member of the Board or the Committee, nor
any officer or employee of the Company or a Subsidiary or Parent Company acting
on behalf of the Board or the Committee, shall be personally liable for any
action, determination or interpretation taken or made in good faith with respect
to the Plan, and all members of the Board or the Committee and each and any
officer or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary or Parent Company acting on




                                      -14-




their behalf shall, to the extent permitted by law, be fully indemnified and
protected by the Company in respect of any such action, determination or
interpretation.

        Section 20. Non-Assignability. No right or benefit hereunder shall in any
manner be subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities or torts of the person
entitled to such right or benefit. No Award under the Plan shall be assignable
or transferable by the Participant except by will, by the laws of descent and
distribution and by such other means as the Committee may approve from time to
time, and all Awards shall be exercisable, during the Participant's lifetime,
only by the Participant.

        However, the Participant, with the approval of the Committee, may transfer
a Non-Qualified Stock Option for no consideration to or for the benefit of the
Participant's Immediate Family (including, without limitation, to a trust for
the benefit of the Participant's Immediate Family or to a partnership or limited
liability company for one or more members of the Participant's Immediate
Family), subject to such limits as the Committee may establish, and the
transferee shall remain subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to
the Non-Qualified Stock Option prior to such transfer. The foregoing right to
transfer a Non-Qualified Stock Option shall apply to the right to consent to
amendments to the Stock Option agreement and, in the discretion of the
Committee, shall also apply to the right to transfer ancillary rights associated
with the Non-Qualified Stock Option. The term "Immediate Family" shall mean the
Participant's spouse, parents, children, stepchildren, adoptive relationships,
sisters, brothers and grandchildren (and, for this purpose, shall also include
the Participant).

        At the request of the Participant and subject to the approval of the
Committee, Common Stock purchased upon exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option
may be issued or transferred into the name of the Participant and his or her
spouse jointly with rights of survivorship.

        Except as set forth above or in a Stock Option agreement, any attempted
assignment, sale, transfer, pledge, mortgage, encumbrance, hypothecation, or
other disposition of an Award under the Plan contrary to the provisions hereof,
or the levy of any execution, attachment, or similar process upon an Award under
the Plan shall be null and void and without effect.

        Section 21. Nonuniform Determinations. The Committee's determinations under
the Plan (including without limitation determinations of the persons to receive
Awards, the form, amount and timing of such Awards, the terms and provisions of
such Awards and the agreements evidencing same, and the establishment of values
and performance targets) need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively
among persons who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards under the Plan,
whether or not such persons are similarly situated.

        Section 22. Adjustments. In the event of any change in the outstanding
shares of Common Stock, without the receipt of consideration by the Company, by
reason of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or distribution,
recapitalization, merger, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
split-up, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change in
corporate structure affecting the Common Stock and not involving the receipt of
consideration by the Company, the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments
in (a) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (i) available for issuance
under the Plan, (ii) for which grants or Awards may be made to any Participant




                                      -15-



or to any group of Participants (e.g., Outside Directors), (iii) which are
available for issuance under Incentive Stock Options, (iv) covered by
outstanding unexercised Awards and grants denominated in shares or units of
Common Stock, (b) the exercise or other applicable price related to outstanding
Awards or grants and (c) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price
determinations relevant to outstanding Awards or grants and shall make such
other adjustments as may be appropriate under the circumstances; provided, that
the number of shares subject to any Award or grant always shall be a whole
number.

        Section 23. Termination and Amendment. The Board may terminate or amend the
Plan or any portion thereof at any time and the Committee may amend the Plan to
the extent provided in Section 3, without approval of the stockholders of the
Company, unless stockholder approval is required by Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange
Act, applicable stock exchange or NASDAQ or other quotation system rules,
applicable Code provisions, or other applicable laws or regulations. No
amendment, termination or modification of the Plan shall affect any Award
theretofore granted in any material adverse way without the consent of the
recipient.

        Section 24. Severability. If any of the terms or provisions of this Plan,
or Awards made under this Plan, conflict with the requirements of Section 162(m)
or Section 422 of the Code with respect to Awards subject to or governed by
Section 162(m) or Section 422 of the Code, then such terms or provisions shall
be deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with the requirements of
Section 162(m) or Section 422 of the Code. With respect to an Incentive Stock
Option, if this Plan does not contain any provision required to be included
herein under Section 422 of the Code (as the same shall be amended from time to
time), such provision shall be deemed to be incorporated herein with the same
force and effect as if such provision had been set out herein. If any provision
of the Plan is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under
any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction,
and the Plan shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction so
as to best give effect to the intent of the Company under the Plan.

        Section 25. Effect on Other Plans. Participation in this Plan shall not
affect an employee's eligibility to participate in any other benefit or
incentive plan of the Company or any Subsidiary and any Awards made pursuant to
this Plan shall not be used in determining the benefits provided under any other
plan of the Company or any Subsidiary unless specifically provided.

        Section 26. Effective Date of the Plan. The Plan shall become effective on
October 14, 2003 (the "Effective Date"), subject to approval of the stockholders
of the Company to the extent required by applicable Code provisions or other
applicable law.

        Section 27. Governing Law. This Plan and all agreements executed in
connection with the Plan shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to its conflicts of law
doctrine.

        Section 28. Gender and Number. Words denoting the masculine gender shall
include the feminine gender, and words denoting the feminine gender shall
include the masculine gender. Words in the plural shall include the singular,
and the singular shall include the plural.




                                      -16-




        Section 29. Acceleration of Exercisability and Vesting. The Committee shall
have the power to accelerate the time at which an Award may first be exercised
or the time during which an Award or any part thereof will vest in accordance
with the Plan, notwithstanding the provisions in the Award stating the time at
which it may first be exercised or the time during which it will vest.

        Section 30. Modification of Awards. Within the limitations of the Plan and
subject to Sections 22 and 35, the Committee may modify outstanding Awards or
accept the cancellation of outstanding Awards for the granting of new Awards in
substitution therefor. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except for any
adjustment described in Section 22 or 35, no modification of an Award shall,
without the consent of the Participant, alter or impair any rights or
obligations under any Award previously granted under the Plan in any material
adverse way without the affected Participant's consent. For purposes of the
preceding sentence, any modification to any of the following terms or conditions
of an outstanding unexercised Award or grant shall be deemed to be a material
modification: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by such Award or
grant, (ii) the exercise or other applicable price or Fair Market Value
determination related to such Award or grant, (iii) the period of time within
which the Award or grant vests and is exercisable and the terms and conditions
of such vesting and exercise, (iv) the type of Award or Stock Option, and (v)
the restrictions on transferability of the Award or grant and of any shares of
Common Stock issued in connection with such Award or grant (including the
Company's right of repurchase, if any).

        Section 31. No Strict Construction. No rule of strict construction shall be
applied against the Company, the Committee, or any other person in the
interpretation of any of the terms of the Plan, any agreement executed in
connection with the Plan, any Award granted under the Plan, or any rule,
regulation or procedure established by the Committee.

        Section 32. Successors. This Plan is binding on and will inure to the
benefit of any successor to the Company, whether by way of merger,
consolidation, purchase, or otherwise.

        Section 33. Plan Provisions Control. The terms of the Plan govern all
Awards granted under the Plan, and in no event will the Committee have the power
to grant any Award under the Plan which is contrary to any of the provisions of
the Plan. In the event any provision of any Award granted under the Plan shall
conflict with any term in the Plan, the term in the Plan shall control.

        Section 34. Headings. The headings used in the Plan are for convenience
only, do not constitute a part of the Plan, and shall not be deemed to limit,
characterize, or affect in any way any provisions of the Plan, and all
provisions of the Plan shall be construed as if no captions had been used in the
Plan.

        Section 35. Merger or Asset Sale. In the event of a merger of the Company
with or into another corporation, or the sale of substantially all of the assets
of the Company, any surviving or acquiring entity shall, subject to the approval
of the Board, assume any Awards outstanding under the Plan or substitute
equivalent Awards (including an Award to acquire the same consideration paid to
the stockholders in the Change in Control transaction for those Awards
outstanding under the Plan). In the event any surviving or acquiring entity





                                      -17-




refuses, prior to the completion of such merger or sale, or fails as of the date
of such event to assume such Awards or to substitute equivalent Awards for those
outstanding under the Plan, or if the Board does not approve such assumption or
substitution, then, with respect to all outstanding Awards held by Participants
as of the date of completion of the merger or sale, and notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in the Plan or any Award agreement, (i) the vesting and
exercisability of such Awards shall be accelerated in full (provided such Awards
have not already terminated or expired), and (ii) Participants will be permitted
to surrender for cancellation within sixty (60) days after such merger or sale
any Stock Option or portion of a Stock Option to the extent not yet exercised,
and the Participant will be entitled to receive a cash payment in an amount
equal to the excess, in any, of (x) the greater of the Fair Market Value, on the
date of surrender, of the shares subject to the Option or portion thereof
surrendered over (y) the aggregate exercise price for such shares under the
Option; provided however, that in the case of an Option granted within six (6)
months prior to the date of such merger or sale to any Participant who may be
subject to liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, such Participant
shall be entitled to surrender for cancellation such Participant's Option during
the sixty (60) day period commencing upon the expiration of six (6) months from
the date of grant of any such Stock Option.
