PART I
Item 1. Business
General
Urban Outfitters, Inc. ("Urban Outfitters" or the "Company") is an
innovative specialty retailer and wholesaler which offers a variety of lifestyle
merchandise to highly defined customer niches. The Company's unique concept
forms the basis for its two retail divisions ("Urban Retail" and
"Anthropologie"), each of which sells a broad array of fashion apparel,
accessories and household and gift merchandise in an exciting and dynamic retail
environment. The Company's wholesale subsidiary ("Wholesale") designs and
markets young women's casual wear which it provides to the Company's retail
operations and sells to over 2,000 better specialty stores worldwide.
Founded and originally operated by a predecessor partnership, the Company
opened its first store in 1970 near the University of Pennsylvania campus in
Philadelphia. The Company was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1976, and opened
its second store in Harvard Square, Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1980. The
Company has since expanded to 25 Urban Retail stores in 18 metropolitan areas
throughout the United States and Canada. The Company has opened eight
Anthropologie stores in eight metropolitan areas most of which overlap the Urban
Retail areas. The Company is in the process of identifying new retail locations,
negotiating new leases and planning to accelerate its rate of new store openings
in the coming years.
Urban Retail: Urban Retail has established a strong reputation among
urban, style-conscious young adults aged 18 to 30. Urban Retail stores, which
average approximately 10,000 net selling square feet and carry 50,000 to 60,000
SKUs, are typically located near large universities or other youth enclaves. The
Company's lifestyle merchandise offerings include women's and men's fashion
apparel, footwear and accessories and apartment wares and gifts. Urban Retail
accounted for approximately 69.3% and 76.8% of the Company's net sales in fiscal
1997 and in fiscal 1996, respectively.
Anthropologie: Anthropologie, the Company's second retail format,
mirrors Urban Retail but tailors its merchandise and shopping environment to
appeal to an older, more established suburban customer, typically women aged 25
to 45. The Company opened its first Anthropologie store in a suburb of
Philadelphia in October 1992. Anthropologie stores average approximately 9,000
net selling square feet and carry 20,000 to 25,000 SKUs with a greater emphasis
on home. The stores are typically located in affluent suburban locations. A few
very special urban locations, such as Soho in New York City, will be part of the
mix. Product offerings include women's casual apparel and accessories, home
furnishings and an eclectic array of gifts and decorative accessories for the
home, garden, bed and bath. Anthropologie accounted for approximately 6.9% and
12.6% of the Company's net sales in fiscal 1996 and in fiscal 1997,
respectively. Anthropologie has a totally separate senior management group,
buying staff, visual merchandising group and operation management. It shares,
with the other companies, distribution, MIS, inventory management, sales audit,
control/accounting and administration.
3
<PAGE>
Wholesale: Wholesale was established in 1984 to develop, side by side
with Urban Retail, apparel lines of young women's casual wear that could be
effectively sold in the Urban Retail stores at attractive pricing to the retail
customers. In order to provide the "attractive" prices, minimum production lots
are necessary. In order to reach these production minimums Wholesale sells to
other retailers throughout the United States. The Wholesale design and
production staffs have expanded their involvement by designing and producing
private label merchandise categories such as apartment wares, gifts, accessories
and shoes.
While continuing its role with Urban Retail and Anthropologie, Wholesale
also sells its products to over 2,000 better specialty stores worldwide under
five labels: Free People, Ecote, Anthropologie, Co-Operative and Bulldog.
Wholesale accounted for approximately 16.3% and 18.1% of the Company's net sales
in fiscal 1996 and in fiscal 1997, respectively. Like Anthropologie and Urban
Retail, Wholesale has its own senior and creative management while sharing those
previously identified support services.
The Company's home offices occupy about 18,000 square feet at 1809 Walnut
Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, adjacent to the Urban Retail store at 1801
Walnut Street.
Retail Strategy
The Company's overall retailing strategy is to concentrate on its target
customers and offer a wide assortment of distinctive products in a compelling
shopping environment. By executing this strategy, the Company believes that it
has successfully captured and developed unique market niches. Elements of this
strategy include:
o Locating Stores in Destination Areas
o Creating Highly Differentiated Store Environments
o Offering a Broad Merchandise Selection
o Emphasizing Dynamic Visual Merchandising
Store Expansion Strategy
The Company strategy is to open three to four new stores each year for both
retail concepts. In fiscal 1997, Urban Retail opened two new stores while
Anthropologie opened five.
4
<PAGE>
In selecting new Urban Retail store sites, the Company typically looks for
locations in metropolitan areas with high concentrations of its target
customers. The Company anticipates that the majority of new Urban Retail stores
will continue to be located near large universities or other youth enclaves with
high levels of foot traffic. The majority of new Anthropologie stores are
expected to be located in the affluent suburban areas in which its target
customers live.
Company Operations
Purchasing: The Company purchases its retail merchandise from numerous
domestic and foreign vendors. During fiscal 1997, the Company's ten largest
retail suppliers, excluding wholesale and in-house private label products,
accounted for approximately 16% of its purchases. The spread of the ten
suppliers is from 0.9% to 3.4% with a mode of 1.1%. The Company may be the
largest customer for many of its smaller, niche vendor sources.
Distribution: In October 1996, the Company completed construction and
occupied its new 100,000-square-foot distribution center. The majority of
merchandise purchased by Urban Retail, Anthropologie, and Wholesale is shipped
directly to this facility. The facility has an advanced computerized materials
handling system, is expandable within its current "footprint" and can be doubled
in size as future needs arise. The 100,000-square-foot structure is expected to
provide distribution capability through the year 2002. The facility is owned by
the Company and is approximately 60 miles from the home office in Philadelphia.
Due to its proximity to the former distribution center, most of the original
work force retained their positions when the move was executed. After a brief
shakedown period, in which a few minor problems were experienced, productivity
grew significantly and continues to do so.
As the Company grows on the West Coast, it will likely add a small
distribution facility in the California/Nevada area. The Company currently uses
third-party distribution in Canada and in Europe.
Management Information Systems: Very early in the Company's growth,
management recognized the need for high-quality information in order to manage
the merchandise planning/buying, inventory management and control functions. The
Company invested in a retail software package that it believes continues to be
one of the best available. The Company is one of the smallest retailers to have
implemented this package. The Company utilizes Point of Sale ("POS") register
and polling systems which provide for register efficiencies, improved customer
checkout and overnight polling.
To manage its separate needs, Wholesale uses a software system for customer
service, order entry and allocations, production planning and inventory
management.
Inventory and Shrinkage Control: The Company's inventory management system
enables it to efficiently manage its inventory position. This system provides
management with accurate and timely information about inventory, pricing,
costing, markdowns, markups, transfers, damages, sales and perpetual inventory
levels. The system allows these items to be monitored by SKU, by location and
by day.
5
<PAGE>
The Company believes its shrinkage levels are below the industry average
despite many store locations in typically higher theft areas. Merchandise
shrinkage control begins at the distribution center with the Company's
information systems, internal employee procedures and self-auditing controls.
The Company educates and incentivizes store employees to actively participate in
loss prevention, and believes that its store employees are the most effective
deterrent to both internal and external theft.
Competition
The specialty retail and wholesale apparel businesses are highly
competitive. Retail competitive factors include store location; merchandise
breadth, quality, style, and availability; level of customer service; and price.
The Company's retail stores compete against a wide variety of smaller,
independent specialty stores as well as department stores and national specialty
chains. Wholesale competes with numerous companies, many of whose products have
wider distribution than the Company's. Certain of Urban Outfitters' retail and
wholesale competitors have greater name recognition and financial and other
resources than the Company.
Trademarks and Service Marks
The Company is the registered owner in the United States of the service
marks "Urban Outfitters" and "Anthropologie," and the trademarks
"Anthropologie," "Ecote," "Co-Operative," "Urban Renewal," "Free People,"
"R.V.," "Slant," "Big Smokey," "Fink," "Lisa L.," "Lip Gloss," and "Shag." U.S.
service marks have a term of 20 years, whereas trademarks have a term of
10 years.
Each mark is renewable indefinitely, contingent upon continued use at the
time of renewal. Accordingly, unless renewed, the marks will expire as follows:
Urban Outfitters(sm) 2005 R.V.(TM) 2005
Anthropologie(sm) 2013 Slant(TM) 2005
Anthropologie(TM) 2000 Big Smokey(TM) 2006
Ecote(TM) 2000 Fink(TM) 2006
Co-Operative(TM) 2002 Lisa L.(TM) 2006
Urban Renewal(TM) 2003 Lip Gloss(TM) 2007
Free People(TM) 2004 Shag(TM) 2007

<PAGE>
In addition, the Company currently has pending registration applications
with the Trademark Office covering the trademarks "Bulldog Guaranteed Tough,"
"Cultural Studies," "365 Days," "Gert's," and "Stappleford." The Company is also
the owner of several international service marks and trademarks which have been
registered in Argentina, Australia, Benelux, Brazil, Canada, Chile, the Czech
Republic, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, Taiwan and the UK. Applications for trademarks have been filed in
several other countries as well.
In the opinion of management, the Company's service marks and trademarks
are important to its business due to their name recognition with the Company's
customers. Accordingly, the Company intends to maintain and preserve its marks
and the related registrations and to vigorously seek to protect them from
infringement. The Company is not aware of any claims of infringement or other
challenges to the Company's right to use any of its marks in the United States.
There can be no assurance, however, that the Company's trademarks do not or will
not violate the proprietary rights of others, that they would be upheld if
challenged or that the Company would, in such an event, not be prevented from
using its trademarks, any of which could have an adverse effect on the Company.
Employees
The Company employs approximately 1,281 persons, 741 (58%) of whom are
full-time employees and 540 (42%) of whom are part-time employees. Of the
Company's total employees, 981 (77%) work at Urban Retail, 243 (19%) work at
Anthropologie and 57 (4%) work at Wholesale. The number of part-time employees
fluctuates depending on seasonal needs. None of the Company's employees are
covered by collective bargaining agreements and management believes that the
Company's relations with its employees are excellent.
I
tem 2. Properties
The Company's home offices are located at 1809 Walnut Street, immediately
adjacent to the retail store at 1801 Walnut Street in Philadelphia.
All of the Urban Retail and Anthropologie stores are leased. The Company's
retail stores are typically leased for a term of ten years with renewal options
for an additional five to ten years. The following table shows the location,
date opened and net selling square feet of each of the Company's existing retail
stores. Net selling square feet can sometimes change due to floor moves, use of
staircases, cash register configuration, etc.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The following discussion of the Company's historical results of operations
and of its liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with
the selected financial data and the consolidated financial statements of the
Company and related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
General
The Company is composed of two retail subsidiaries, Urban Retail and
Anthropologie, and a Wholesale subsidiary. Urban Retail is the largest of the
three, has the highest gross profit margins and generates most of the Company's
revenues and profits. Urban Retail had 25 stores opened at January 31, 1997 and
23 at January 31, 1996. The Company's first Anthropologie store opened in
October 1992. Two Anthropologie stores were added in fiscal 1995. Due to
protracted lease negotiations, no new stores were opened in fiscal 1996, while
five Anthropologie stores were opened in fiscal 1997. Negotiations for
additional leases continue. The Wholesale company's growth is from both the
domestic and international markets.
Fiscal 1997 and 1996 continued as very profitable years for Urban
Outfitters with earnings to net sales of 8.5% and 9.3%, respectively, as well as
return on shareholders' equity of 17.5% and 20.7%, respectively. The slight
contraction of earning to net sales in fiscal 1997 and the direction of return
on shareholders' equity in that year resulted primarily from a slowdown in
retail sales growth in both fiscal 1997 and 1996. A combination of lower
comparable store sales growth in the two years and planned new stores either not
opened (fiscal 1996) or opened late (fiscal 1997) caused the slowdown in sales
growth. The Wholesale company has, by contrast, continued to record exceptional
sales growth throughout the two fiscal years.
The Company's fiscal year ends on January 31. All references in this
discussion to fiscal years of the Company refer to the fiscal years ended on
January 31 in those years. For example, the Company's 1997 fiscal year is its
fiscal year ended January 31, 1997. The comparable store net sales data
presented in this discussion are calculated based on the net sales of all stores
open at least twelve full months at the beginning of the period for which such
data is presented.
Results of Operations
The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, the percentage
of the Company's net sales represented by certain income statement data and the
growth of certain of such income statement data from period to period.

Fiscal 1997 Compared to Fiscal 1996
Net sales in fiscal 1997 increased to $156.4 million from $133.0 million in
the prior fiscal year, a 17.6% increase. The $23.4 million increase was
attributable to comparable store net sales increases of $2.2 million, net sales
of $14.5 million from stores opened or enlarged during fiscal 1996 and fiscal
1997 and net sales increases of $6.7 million from the Wholesale company. The
comparable store sales increase of 2.1% or $2.2 million in fiscal 1997 over 1996
results from the inverse relationship of higher average selling prices and fewer
pieces sold. The higher average selling prices representing approximately $12.1
million and the fewer pieces sold approximately $9.9 million leaving the $2.2
million in comparable store sales. New and enlarged stores included four stores
opened in fiscal 1996 and seven opened in fiscal 1997. The Company believes
increased net sales from the Wholesale subsidiary during fiscal 1997 were
attributable to increased orders and order size due to the popularity of its
product lines as well as growth in number of orders and size of orders from
international customers.
14
<PAGE>
The Company's gross profit margin declined from 50.8% in fiscal 1996 to
50.2% in fiscal 1997. The primary contributors to the decline were higher
markdowns in the retail companies, high growth of a new, lower margin product
line in the Wholesale company, and a mix swing to higher sales in the lower
gross profit margin companies -- Anthropologie and Wholesale. Markdowns were
triggered by lower than plan comparable store sales and by late openings of two
Urban Retail stores. The new Wholesale product line did not have production
economies of scale enjoyed by its larger and more established product lines.
Selling, general and administrative expenses grew to $57.1 million in
fiscal 1997 from $47.7 million in the prior fiscal year, a 19.8% increase. As a
percentage of net sales, the expenses increased to 36.5% in fiscal 1997 from
35.9% in the prior fiscal year. The increase in percentage was attributable to
Urban Retail due to lower comparable store sales. Conversely, both Anthropologie
and Wholesale experienced selling, general and administrative expense leveraging
on significant sales growth.
Net income increased to $13.3 million in fiscal 1997 from $12.3 million in
the prior fiscal year, a 7.7% increase. This increase was principally achieved
through increases in net sales.
Fiscal 1996 Compared to Fiscal 1995
Net sales in fiscal 1996 increased to $133.0 million from $110.1 million in
the prior fiscal year, a 20.8% increase. The $22.9 million increase was
attributable to comparable store net sales increases of $2.3 million, net sales
of $19.0 million from stores opened or enlarged during fiscal 1995 and fiscal
1996 and net sales increases of $1.6 million from Wholesale. The comparable
store sales increase of 3.3% over fiscal 1995 levels was created by an inverse
relationship between a decline in the average selling price and a greater
increase in the pieces sold. The average selling price decline of 3.5% was a
combination of lower initial selling prices from a mix of lower priced
merchandise (not lower markups) and higher markdowns in fiscal 1996 when
compared to fiscal 1995. Pieces sold, on the other hand, increased by 7.1%. The
increases from new and enlarged store sales growth in fiscal 1996 were
attributed to three Urban Retail stores and two Anthropologie stores opened in
the second half of fiscal 1995 and four Urban Retail stores opened in fiscal
1996. The Company believes increased net sales from the Wholesale subsidiary
during fiscal 1996 were attributable to increased orders and order size due to
the popularity of its product lines.
The Company's gross profit margin declined from 52.1% in fiscal 1995 to
50.8% in fiscal 1996. The primary contributors to the decline were higher
markdowns across all three companies in fiscal 1996. Contrary to the markdown
trend, initial markups were higher in each company than in the prior year.
Anthropologie stores opened prior to the beginning of fiscal 1996 sold well
against their sales plan, but had bought inventory for expected store openings
that did not take place in fiscal 1996. This added to the markdowns.
Anthropologie sales grew at a faster rate than Urban Retail but, at the same
time, had a lower gross profit margin thus contributing to the overall decline.
Freight rates on a growing group of West Coast and Southwest stores contributed
slightly.

<PAGE>
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $47.7 million in
fiscal 1996 from $39.8 million in the prior fiscal year, a 20.0% increase. As a
percentage of net sales, the expenses decreased to 35.9% in fiscal 1996 from
36.1% in the prior fiscal year. All three companies contributed to the decrease.
The companies were subject to expense control programs initiated when it became
apparent, early in the year, that sales were not going to meet planned levels
during the first half. The year-to-year aggregate dollar increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses was almost entirely attributable to rent and
other costs of operating new stores.
Net income increased to $12.3 million in fiscal 1996 from $10.8 million in
the prior fiscal year, a 13.8% increase. This increase was principally achieved
through increases in net sales, a small percentage reduction in selling, general
and administrative expenses, higher net interest income and lower nonoperating
expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the last three years the Company has satisfied its cash requirements
through cash flow from operations. The Company's primary uses of cash have been
to open new stores, build a new distribution center and purchase inventories. In
addition to cash generated from operations, sources of cash have included the
net proceeds from the exercise of certain warrants and employee stock options in
each of fiscal 1995, 1996 and 1997. Over the next few years, the Company expects
to incur capital expenditures in support of its expansion program. Accumulated
cash and future cash from operations are expected to fund such expansion-related
uses of cash.
Although the Company has not borrowed short-term or long-term funds during
the last five fiscal years, it maintains a line of credit of $10.0 million, of
which all is available for cash borrowings or for the issuance of letters of
credit. The line is unsecured and any cash borrowings under the line would
accrue interest at the LIBOR rate plus 1/2 of one percent. The Company uses
letters of credit primarily to purchase private label and Wholesale merchandise
from offshore suppliers. Outstanding balances of letters of credit at January
31, 1996 and 1997 were $5.3 million and $4.3 million, respectively. There were
no short-term or long-term debts outstanding at January 31, 1996 or at January
31, 1997.
The Company expects that accumulated cash and cash from operations will be
sufficient to meet the Company's cash needs for at least the next three years.

<PAGE>
Seasonality and Quarterly Results
While Urban Outfitters has been profitable in each of its last 28 operating
quarters, its operating results are subject to seasonal fluctuations. The
Company's highest sales levels have historically occurred during the five-month
period from August 1 to December 31 of each year (the "Back-to-School" and
Holiday periods). Sales generated during these periods have traditionally had a
significant impact on the Company's results of operations. Any decreases in
sales for these periods or in the availability of working capital needed in the
months preceding these periods could have a material, adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations. The Company's results of operations in any one
fiscal quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that
can be expected for any other fiscal quarter or for the full fiscal year.
The Company's results of operations may also fluctuate from quarter to
quarter as a result of the amount and timing of expenses incurred in connection
with, and sales contributed by, new stores, store expansions and the integration
of new stores into the operations of the Company, as well as other factors. The
addition of a large number of new stores can therefore significantly affect
results of operations on a quarter-to-quarter basis.
The following tables, which are unaudited, set forth the Company's net
sales, gross profit, net income and earnings per share for each quarter during
the last two fiscal years and the amount of such net sales and net income,
respectively, as a percentage of annual net sales and annual net income.

Report of Independent Accountants
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Urban Outfitters, Inc.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index
appearing under Item 14 (a)(1) and (2) on page 22 present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Urban Outfitters, Inc. and its
subsidiaries at January 31, 1996 and 1997, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31,
1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

Urban Outfitters, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(In thousands, except share and per share data)
January 31, 1996 and 1997
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Urban
Outfitters, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The principal business
activity of the Company is the operation of general consumer product retail
stores and the wholesale distribution of apparel to over 2,000 better specialty
stores worldwide.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
defines cash and cash equivalents as cash and highly liquid investments with
original maturities of less than three months. They are carried at amortized
cost, which approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these
instruments.
Investments
The Company's debt and equity securities are classified as either
held-to-maturity or available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity securities represent
those securities that the Company has both the positive intent and ability to
hold to maturity and are carried at amortized cost. Interest on these securities
as well as amortization is included in interest income. Available-for-sale
securities represent those securities that do not meet the classification of
held-to-maturity, are not actively traded and are carried at fair value.
Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are excluded from earnings and
are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of applicable
taxes, until realized. Gross unrealized gains and losses net of the related
deferred taxes have not been material.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents and
investments. The Company manages the credit risk associated with cash
equivalents and investments by investing with high-quality institutions and, by
policy, limiting the amount of credit exposure to any one institution.

Inventories
Inventories, which consist of general consumer merchandise held for sale,
are valued at the lower of cost or market. The cost is determined on the
first-in, first-out method.
Depreciation and Amortization
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization
are computed using the straight-line method over three to five years for
furniture and equipment, or the lease life for leasehold improvements.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes.
Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the
expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying
amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities.
Net Income Per Share
Net income per share is computed using the weighted number of common shares
and common share equivalents outstanding.
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and
disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period.
Differences from those estimates, if any, are recorded in the period they become
known.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" (SFAS 123). SFAS 123 defines a fair value-based method of
accounting for employee stock options or other similar equity instruments.
Companies must either adopt the new method or disclose the pro forma income
statement effects in their financial statements. The Company has chosen to
disclose the pro forma income statement effects of SFAS 123 only.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of prior years' data have been made to conform to
1997 classifications.

6. Line of Credit
The Company has available a $10,000 revolving line of credit to facilitate
letter of credit transactions and cash advances. Interest on outstanding
balances is payable monthly based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR)
plus 1/2%. No principal amounts were outstanding under this line at January 31,
1996 and 1997. Outstanding letters of credit totaled $5,308 and $4,263 as of
January 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. These letters of credit, which have
terms from one month to one year, collateralize the Company's obligation to

credit is estimated to be the same as the contract values.

The Company has a profit-sharing plan that covers all employees who are at
least 18 years of age and have completed at least one thousand hours of service.
Plan contributions are at the discretion of management but may not exceed 15% of

10. Stock Option Plans
The Company's three fixed option plans are a) an Incentive Stock Option
plan for which 2,333,332 common shares were reserved for grants to certain key
officers and employees of the Company, b) a Non-qualified Stock Option plan
permitting 1,333,332 common shares to be granted at exercise prices determined
by the Company's Compensation Committee, and c) a Non-qualified Stock Option
plan for Directors with 200,000 shares reserved for directors who are not
employees of the Company. The vesting period for these plans range from one to
five years.
The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the
stock option plans. Had compensation cost for the Company's three stock option
plans been determined based on the fair value provisions of SFAS 123 at the
grant date for awards during fiscal 1996 and 1997, the Company's net earnings
and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts
indicated below:
For the year ended January 31,
------------------------------
1996 1997
------- -------
Net earnings - as reported ............... $12,308 $13,260
Net earnings - pro forma ................. $11,930 $12,649
Earnings per share - as reported ......... $ .70 $ .75
Earnings per share - pro forma ........... $ .68 $ .72
The pro forma results may not be representative of the effects on reported
operations for future years.
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions:
1996 1997

The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. Each member of the

The Committee shall have full authority, subject to the terms of the
Plan, to select the Key Employees to be granted ISOs and/or NQSOs under the

Options on behalf of the Company and to set the date of grant and the other

and reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan and in any Option granted hereunder
in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable. The Committee also
shall have the authority to establish such rules and regulations, not
inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, for the proper administration of
the Plan, and to amend, modify or rescind any such rules and regulations, and to
make such determinations and interpretations under, or in connection with, the
Plan, as it deems necessary or advisable. All such rules, regulations,
determinations and interpretations shall be binding and conclusive upon the
Company, its shareholders and all employees, and upon their respective legal
representatives, beneficiaries, successors and assigns and upon all other
persons claiming under or through any of them.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms and conditions of grants of
NQSOs to Non-Employee Directors are intended to be fixed in advance.
Consequently, the grants of NQSOs to Non-Employee Directors shall be as set
forth in Section 7 and neither the Committee nor the Board shall have any
discretionary authority with respect thereto.
No member of the Board or the Committee shall be liable for any action
or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Option
granted under it.
SECTION 3 - Eligibility

Non-Employee Director or Consultant under the Plan.
-4-
<PAGE>
SECTION 4 - Stock
Options may be granted under the Plan to purchase up to a maximum of
one million two hundred and fifty thousand (1,250,000) shares of Common Stock
subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided; provided, however, that no Key
Employee shall receive Options for more than four hundred thousand (400,000)
shares of Common Stock over the life of the Plan. Shares issuable under the Plan
may be authorized but unissued shares or reacquired shares, and the Company may
purchase shares required for this purpose, from time to time, if it deems such
purchase to be advisable.
If any Option granted under the Plan expires or otherwise terminates
for any reason whatever (including, without limitation, the Key Employee's, Non-
Employee Director's or Consultant's surrender thereof) without having been
exercised, the shares subject to the unexercised portion of such Option shall
continue to be available for the granting of Options under the Plan as fully as
if such shares had never been subject to an Option; provided, however, that (a)
if an Option is cancelled, the cancelled Option is counted against the maximum
number of shares for which Options may be granted to a Key Employee, and (b) if
the Option price is reduced after the date of grant, the transaction is treated
as a cancellation of an Option and the grant of a new Option for purposes of
counting the maximum number of shares for which Options may be granted to a Key
Employee.
SECTION 5 - Granting of Options
From time to time until the expiration or earlier suspension or
discontinuance of the Plan, the Committee may, on behalf of the Company, grant
to Key Employees and Consultants under the Plan such Options as it determines
are warranted; provided, however, that grants of ISOs and NQSOs shall be
separate and not in tandem; and further provided that Consultants shall not be
eligible to receive grants of ISOs. The granting of an Option under the Plan
shall not be deemed either to entitle the Key Employee or Consultant to, or to
disqualify the Key Employee or Consultant from, any participation in any other
grant of Options under the Plan. In making any determination as to whether a Key
Employee or Consultant shall be granted an Option and as to the number of shares
to be covered by such Option, the Committee shall take into account the duties
of the Key Employee or Consultant, his or her present and potential
contributions to the success of the Company or a Related Corporation, and such
other factors as the Committee shall deem relevant in accomplishing the purposes
of the Plan. Moreover, the Committee may provide in a Key Employee's or
Consultant's Option Agreement that said Option may be exercised only if certain
conditions, as determined by the Committee, are fulfilled.
-5-
<PAGE>
The Committee shall grant NQSOs to Non-Employee Directors in accordance
with Section 7.
SECTION 6 - Annual Limit
(a) ISOs. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date
the ISO is granted) of the Common Stock with respect to which ISOs are
exercisable for the first time by a Key Employee during any calendar
year (under this Plan and any other ISO plan of the Company or a
Related Corporation) shall not exceed one hundred thousand dollars
($100,000).
(b) NQSOs. The annual limit set forth above for ISOs shall not apply
to NQSOs.
SECTION 7 - Options for Non-Employee Directors
(a) Granting of NQSOs to Non-Employee Directors
(1) Initial Grant. An NQSO to purchase 10,000 shares of Common
Stock (as adjusted pursuant to Section 10) automatically shall be
granted to a Non-Employee Director, who was not a Non-Employee
Director prior to the Company's 1998 annual shareholders' meeting,
on the date he or she becomes a Non-Employee Director, whether by
reason of his or her election by shareholders or appointment by the
Board to be a director, or, if applicable, the expiration of the
12-month period specified in Section 1(b)(10)(B) with respect to a
present or future director who had previously been an employee of
the Company or any Related Corporation; provided, that if a
Non-Employee Director who previously received an NQSO grant under
Section 5(a) of the Urban Outfitters, Inc. 1993 Non-Employee
Directors' Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan or Section 7(a)(1) of
this Plan terminates service as a director and is subsequently
elected or appointed to the Board again, such director shall not be
eligible to receive an NQSO grant under this Section 7(a)(1).
(2) Subsequent Grants. In addition to the initial grant, pursuant
to Section 5(a) of the Urban Outfitters, Inc. 1993 Non-Employee
Directors' Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan or Section 7(a)(1) of
this Plan, on the first business day immediately following each of
the dates on which an incumbent Non-Employee Director is elected or
re-elected to the Board by shareholders subsequent to the 1997
annual shareholders' meeting, he or she shall automatically be
granted an NQSO
-6-
<PAGE>
to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted pursuant to
Section 10), except that in the case of the first election or
re-election following the date of the Non-Employee Director's
initial election or appointment to the Board, no grant shall be
made on account of such first election or re-election unless at
least six months have elapsed since such initial election or
appointment.
(b) Terms and Conditions of Options. Options granted to Non-
Employee Directors shall expressly specify that they are NQSOs. In addition,
such NQSOs shall include expressly or by reference the following terms and
conditions, as well as such other provisions not inconsistent with the
provisions of the Plan:
(1) Number of Shares. A statement of the number of shares of
Common Stock to which the NQSO pertains.
(2) Price. A statement of the NQSO exercise price, which shall be
the higher of one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value
per share of the Common Stock, or the par value thereof, on the date
the NQSO is granted.
(3) Term. Subject to earlier termination as provided in Section
7(b)(5), (6), and (7) and Section 10 below, the term of each NQSO
granted under this Section 7 shall be ten (10) years from the date
of grant.
(4) Exercise. NQSOs granted under this Section 7 shall be
exercisable on the business day immediately preceding the annual
meeting of shareholders next succeeding the date of grant of such
NQSOs. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 7(b)(5), (6) and (7)
below, NQSOs shall only be exercisable by a Non-Employee Director
while he or she remains a director of the Company. Any NQSO shares,
the right to the purchase of which has accrued, may be purchased at
any time up to the expiration or termination of the NQSO.
Exercisable NQSOs may be exercised, in whole or in part, from time
to time by giving written notice of exercise to the Company at its
principal office, specifying the number of shares to be purchased
and accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate price for such
shares. Only full shares shall be issued under the Plan, and any
fractional share which might otherwise be issuable upon exercise of
an NQSO granted hereunder shall be forfeited.
The NQSO exercise price shall be payable:
-7-
<PAGE>
(A) In cash or its equivalent; or
(B) Unless in the opinion of counsel to the Company to do so
may result in a possible loss of an exemption from short-swing
profit liability, in whole or in part through the transfer of
Common Stock newly acquired upon exercise of the NQSO or Common
Stock previously acquired by the Non-Employee Director, provided
the previously acquired Common Stock so transferred has been held
by the Non-Employee Director for more than six (6) months on the
date of exercise.
In the event such NQSO exercise price is paid, in whole or in
part, with Common Stock, the portion of the NQSO exercise price so
paid shall equal the Fair Market Value of Common Stock so
surrendered (determined in accordance with Section 1(b)(7), but on
the date of exercise rather than on the date of grant).
(5) Expiration of Term or Removal as Director. If a Non-Employee
Director's service as a director of the Company terminates prior to
the expiration date fixed for his or her NQSO under this Section 7
for any reason (such as, without limitation, failure to be
re-elected by the Company's shareholders) other than by disability
or death, such NQSO may be exercised, to the extent of the number of
shares of Common Stock with respect to which he or she could have
exercised it on the date of such termination, by the Non-Employee
Director at any time prior to the earlier of:
(A) The expiration date specified in such NQSO; or
(B) One (1) year after the date of such termination of service
as a director.
(6) Exercise upon Disability of Non-Employee Director. If a
Non-Employee Director shall become disabled (within the meaning of
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) during his or her term as a director
of the Company and, prior to the expiration date fixed for his or
her NQSO, his or her term as a director is terminated as a
consequence of such disability, such NQSO may be exercised, to the
extent of the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which
the Non-Employee Director could have exercised it on the date of
such termination, by the Non-Employee Director at any time prior to
the earlier of:
-8-
<PAGE>
(A) The expiration date of such NQSO; or
(B) One (1) year after the date of such termination of service
as a director.
In the event of the Non-Employee Director's legal disability,
such NQSO may be so exercised by his or her legal representative.
(7) Exercise upon Death of Non-Employee Director. If a Non-
Employee Director shall die during his or her term as a director of
the Company and prior to the expiration date fixed for his or her
NQSO, or if a Non-Employee Director whose term as a director has
been terminated for any reason shall die following his or her
termination as a director, but prior to the earlier of:
(A) The expiration date fixed for his or her NQSO; or
(B) The expiration of the period determined under Section
7(b)(5) and (6) above;
such NQSO may be exercised, to the extent of the number of shares
with respect to which the Non-Employee Director could have exercised
it on the date of his or her death, by the Non-Employee Director's
estate, personal representative or beneficiary who acquired the
right to exercise such NQSO by bequest or inheritance or by reason
of the death of the Non-Employee Director, at any time prior to the
earlier of:
(i) The expiration date specified in such NQSO (which
may be the expiration date determined under Section 7(b)(5)
and (6) above); or
(ii) One (1) year after the date of death.
(c) Transferability. A Non-Employee Director may transfer an NQSO
granted pursuant to this Section 7 to (1) a member of his or her immediate
family, (2) a partnership of which the only partners are members of his or her
immediate family, or (3) a trust established solely for the benefit of his or
her immediate family members. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, or
by will or the laws of descent and distribution, NQSOs granted pursuant to this
Section 7 shall not be assignable or transferable by the Non-Employee Director,
and during the lifetime of the Non-Employee Director, the NQSO shall be
exercisable only by him or her or by his or her guardian or legal
representative. Any NQSO transferred by a Non-Employee Director shall not be
assignable or
-9-
<PAGE>
transferable by the transferee. If the Non-Employee Director is married at the
time of exercise and if the Non-Employee Director so requests at the time of
exercise, the certificate or certificates shall be registered in the name of the
Non-Employee Director and the Non-Employee Director's spouse, jointly, with
right of survivorship.
SECTION 8 - Terms and Conditions of Options for Key Employees and Consultants
The Options granted to Key Employees pursuant to the Plan shall
expressly specify whether they are ISOs or NQSOs; however, if the Option is not
designated in the Option Agreement as an ISO or NQSO, the Option shall
constitute an ISO if it complies with the terms of Section 422 of the Code, and
otherwise, it shall constitute an NQSO. The Options granted to Consultants
pursuant to the Plan shall expressly state that they are NQSOs. In addition, the
Options granted to Key Employees and Consultants pursuant to the Plan shall
include expressly or by reference the following terms and conditions, as well as
such other provisions not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan and, for
ISOs granted under this Plan, the provisions of Section 422(b) of the Code, as
the Committee shall deem desirable:
(a) Number of Shares. A statement of the number of shares to
which the Option pertains.
(b) Price. A statement of the Option price which shall be
determined and fixed by the Committee in its discretion but shall
not be less than the higher of one hundred percent (100%) (one
hundred ten percent (110%) in the case of an ISO granted to a Key
Employee who is a more than ten percent (10%) shareholder as
discussed in (i) below) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock, or the par value thereof, on the date the Option is granted.
(c) Term. Subject to earlier termination as provided in
Subsections (e), (f) and (g) below and in Section 10 hereof, the
term of each Option shall be not more than ten (10) years (five (5)
years in the case of an ISO granted to a Key Employee who is a more
than ten percent (10%) shareholder as discussed in (i) below) from
the date of grant.
(d) Exercise.
(1) General. Options shall be exercisable in such installments
and on such dates, not less than six (6) months from the date of
grant, and not more than seven (7) years from the date of grant,
as the Committee may specify, provided that:
-10-
<PAGE>
(A) In the case of new Options granted in replacement for
Options (whether granted under the Plan or otherwise) held by
the Key Employee or Consultant, the new Options may be made
exercisable, if so determined by the Committee, in its
discretion, at the earliest date the replaced Options were
exercisable, but not earlier than three (3) months from the
date of grant of the new Options; and
(B) The Committee may accelerate the exercise date of any
outstanding Options (including, without limitation, the three
(3) month exercise date referred to in (A) above), in its
discretion, if it deems such acceleration to be desirable.
Any Option shares, the right to the purchase of which has
accrued, may be purchased at any time up to the expiration or
termination of the Option. Exercisable Options may be exercised,
in whole or in part, from time to time by giving written notice
of exercise to the Company at its principal office, specifying
the number of shares to be purchased and accompanied by payment
in full of the aggregate Option price for such shares. Only full
shares shall be issued under the Plan, and any fractional share
which might otherwise be issuable upon exercise of an Option
granted hereunder shall be forfeited.
(2) Manner of Payment. The Option price shall be payable:
(A) In cash or its equivalent;
(B) If the Committee, in its discretion, so provides in the
Option Agreement or, in the case of Options which are not
ISOs, if the Committee, in its discretion, so determines at or
prior to the time of exercise, in whole or in part, in Common
Stock previously acquired by the Optionee, provided that if
such shares of Common Stock were acquired through the exercise
of an ISO and are used to pay the Option price of an ISO, such
shares have been held by the Key Employee for a period of not
less than the holding period described in Section 422(a)(1) of
the Code on the date of exercise, or if such shares of Common
Stock were acquired through exercise of an NQSO or of an
Option under a similar plan or through exercise of an ISO and
are used to pay the Option price of an NQSO, such shares have
been held by the Optionee for a period of more than six (6)
months on the date of exercise;
-11-
<PAGE>
(C) If the Committee, in its discretion, so provides in the
Option Agreement or, in the case of Options which are not
ISOs, if the Committee, in its discretion, so determines at or
prior to the time of exercise, in whole or in part, in Common
Stock newly acquired by the Optionee upon exercise of such
Option (which shall constitute a disqualifying disposition in
the case of an Option which is an ISO);
(D) If the Committee, in its discretion, so provides in the
Option Agreement or, in the case of Options which are not
ISOs, if the Committee, in its discretion, so determines at or
prior to the time of exercise, in any combination of (A), (B)
and (C) above; or
(E) If the Committee, in its discretion, so provides in the
Option Agreement or, in the case of Options which are not
ISOs, if the Committee, in its discretion, so determines at or
prior to the time of exercise, by permitting the Optionee to
deliver a properly executed notice of exercise of the Option
to the Company and a broker, with irrevocable instructions to
the broker promptly to deliver to the Company the amount of
sale or loan proceeds necessary to pay the exercise price of
the Option.
In the event such Option price is paid, in whole or in part,
with shares of Common Stock, the portion of the Option price so
paid shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of Common Stock so
surrendered (determined in accordance with Section 1(b)(7), but
on the date of exercise rather than on the date of grant).
(e) Termination of Employment. If a Key Employee's employment by,
or a Consultant's consulting arrangement with, the Company (and
Related Corporations) is terminated by either party prior to the
expiration date fixed for his or her Option for any reason other
than death or disability, such Option may be exercised, to the
extent of the number of shares with respect to which the Optionee
could have exercised it on the date of such termination, or to any
greater extent permitted by the Committee, by the Optionee at any
time prior to the earlier of:
(1) The expiration date specified in such Option; or
-12-
<PAGE>
(2) An accelerated termination date determined by the
Committee, in its discretion, except that, subject to Section 10
hereof, such accelerated termination date shall not be earlier
than the date of the Optionee's termination of employment or
consultancy, and such termination date shall not be later than
thirty (30) days after the date of such termination of employment
or consultancy.
(f) Exercise upon Disability. If a Key Employee or Consultant
shall become disabled (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the
Code) during his or her employment or consultancy and, prior to the
expiration date fixed for his or her Option, his or her employment
or consultancy is terminated as a consequence of such disability,
such Option may be exercised, to the extent of the number of shares
with respect to which the Optionee could have exercised it on the
date of such termination, or to any greater extent permitted by the
Committee, by the Optionee at any time prior to the earlier of:
(1) The expiration date specified in such Option; or
(2) An accelerated termination date determined by the
Committee, in its discretion, except that, subject to Section 10
hereof, such accelerated termination date shall not be earlier
than the date of the Optionee's termination of employment or
consultancy by reason of disability, and such date shall not be
later than six (6) months after the date of such termination of
employment or consultancy. In the event of the Optionee's legal
disability, such Option may be so exercised by the Optionee's
legal representative.
(g) Exercise upon Death. If a Key Employee or Consultant shall
die during his or her employment or consultancy, and prior to the
expiration date fixed for his or her Option, or if an Optionee whose
employment or consultancy is terminated for any reason, shall die
following his or her termination of employment or consultancy but
prior to the earliest of:
(1) The expiration date fixed for his or her Option;
(2) The expiration of the period determined under Subsections
(e) and (f) above; or
(3) In the case of an ISO, three (3) months following
termination of employment,
-13-
<PAGE>
such Option may be exercised, to the extent of the number of shares
with respect to which the Optionee could have exercised it on the date
of his or her death, or to any greater extent permitted by the
Committee, by the Optionee's estate, personal representative or
beneficiary who acquired the right to exercise such Option by bequest
or inheritance or by reason of the death of the Optionee, at any time
prior to the earlier of:
(A) The expiration date specified in such Option; or
(B) An accelerated termination date determined by the
Committee, in its discretion except that, subject to Section
10 hereof, such accelerated termination date shall not be
later than six (6) months after the date of death.
(h) Transferability.
(1) ISOs. No ISO shall be assignable or transferable by the
Key Employee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution, and during the lifetime of the Key Employee, the
ISO shall be exercisable only by him or her or by his or her
guardian or legal representative. If the Key Employee is married
at the time of exercise and if the Key Employee so requests at
the time of exercise, the certificate or certificates shall be
registered in the name of the Key Employee and the Key Employee's
spouse, jointly, with right of survivorship.
(2) NQSOs. Except as otherwise provided in any Option
Agreement, no NQSO shall be assignable or transferable by the Key
Employee or Consultant otherwise than by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution, and during the lifetime of the
Optionee, the NQSO shall be exercisable only by him or her or by
his or her guardian or legal representative. If an Optionee's
Option Agreement provides that the NQSO is transferrable, such
Option Agreement shall set forth any limitations on the transfer
of the NQSO. If the Optionee is married at the time of exercise
and if the Optionee so requests at the time of exercise, the
certificate or certificates shall be registered in the name of
the Optionee and the Optionee's spouse, jointly, with right of
survivorship.
(i) Ten Percent Shareholder. If the Key Employee owns more
than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all
shares of stock of the Company or of a Related Corporation at the
time an ISO is granted to such Key Employee, the Option price for
the ISO shall be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the
-14-
<PAGE>
Fair Market Value of the optioned shares of Common Stock on the date
the ISO is granted, and such ISO, by its terms, shall not be
exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date the
ISO is granted. The conditions set forth in this Subsection (i)
shall not apply to NQSOs.
(j) Withholding and Use of Shares to Satisfy Tax Obligations.
The obligation of the Company to deliver shares of Common Stock upon
the exercise of any Option shall be subject to applicable federal,
state and local tax withholding requirements.
If the exercise of any Option is subject to the withholding
requirements of applicable federal, state and/or local tax laws, the
Committee, in its discretion (and subject to such withholding rules
("Withholding Rules") as shall be adopted by the Committee), may
permit the Key Employee to satisfy the minimum required federal,
state and/or local withholding tax, in whole or in part, by electing
to have the Company withhold (or by returning to the Company) shares
of Common Stock, which shares shall be valued, for this purpose, at
their Fair Market Value (determined in accordance with Section
1(b)(7), but on the date of exercise (rather that the date of
grant), or if later, the date on which the Optionee recognizes
ordinary income with respect to such exercise) (the "Determination
Date"). An election to use shares of Common Stock to satisfy tax
withholding requirements must be made in compliance with and subject
to the Withholding Rules. The Committee may not withhold shares in
excess of the number necessary to satisfy the minimum federal, state
and/or local income tax withholding requirements. In the event
shares of Common Stock acquired under the exercise of an ISO are
used to satisfy such withholding requirement, such shares of Common
Stock must have been held by the Key Employee for a period of not
less than the holding period described in Section 422(a)(1) of the
Code on the Determination Date.
SECTION 9 - Option Agreements - Other Provisions
Options granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by Option Agreements
in such form as the Committee shall, from time to time, approve, which Option
Agreements shall contain such provisions, not inconsistent with the provisions
of the Plan for NQSOs granted pursuant to the Plan, and such conditions, not
inconsistent with Section 422(b) of the Code or the provisions of the Plan for
ISOs granted pursuant to the Plan, as the Committee shall deem advisable, and
which Option Agreements shall specify whether the Option is an ISO or NQSO;
provided, however, if an Option granted to a Key Employee is not designated in
the Option Agreement as an ISO or NQSO, the Option shall constitute an ISO if it
-15-
<PAGE>
complies with the terms of Section 422 of the Code, and otherwise, it shall
constitute an NQSO. Each Key Employee, Non-Employee Director and Consultant
shall enter into, and be bound by, such Option Agreement.
SECTION 10 - Capital Adjustments
The number of shares which may be issued under the Plan, and the
maximum number of shares with respect to which Options may be granted during a
specified period to any Key Employee under the Plan, both as stated in Section 4
hereof, the number of shares with respect to which NQSOs are granted to Non-
Employee Directors under Section 7(a), and the number of shares issuable upon
exercise of outstanding Options under the Plan (as well as the Option price per
share under such outstanding Options), shall, subject to the provisions of
Section 424(a) of the Code, be adjusted proportionately, to reflect any stock
dividend, stock split, share combination, or similar change in the
capitalization of the Company.
In the event of a corporate transaction (as that term is described in
Section 424(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder as,
for example, a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock,
separation, reorganization, or liquidation), each outstanding Option shall be
assumed by the surviving or successor corporation; provided, however, that, in
the event of a proposed corporate transaction, the Committee may terminate all
or a portion of the outstanding Options issued to Key Employees and Consultants
if it determines that such termination is in the best interests of the Company.
If the Committee decides to terminate outstanding Options issued to Key
Employees and Consultants, the Committee shall give each Key Employee and
Consultant holding an Option to be terminated not less than seven (7) days'
notice prior to any such termination by reason of such a corporate transaction,
and any such Option which is to be so terminated may be exercised (if and only
to the extent that it is then exercisable) up to, and including the date
immediately preceding such termination. Further, as provided in Section 8(d)
hereof the Committee, in its discretion, may accelerate, in whole or in part,
the date on which any or all Options issued to Key Employees and Consultants
become exercisable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a corporate transaction
(as described above) in which holders of Common Stock are to receive cash,
securities or other property, and provision is not made for the continuance and
assumption of NQSOs granted to Non-Employee Directors, all such outstanding
NQSOs shall terminate as of the last business day immediately preceding the
closing date of such corporate transaction and the Company shall pay to each
Non-Employee Director an amount in cash with respect to each share to which a
terminated NQSO pertains equal to the difference between the NQSO exercise price
and the value of the consideration to be received by the holders of Common Stock
in connection with such transaction.

<PAGE>
SECTION 11 - Amendment or Discontinuance of the Plan
(a) General. The Board from time to time may suspend or discontinue
the Plan or amend it in any respect whatsoever, except that the
following amendments shall require shareholder approval (given in the
manner set forth in Section 11(b) below):
(1) With respect to ISOs, any amendment which would:
(A) Change the class of employees eligible to participate in
the Plan;
(B) Except as permitted under Section 10 hereof, increase the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which
ISOs may be granted under the Plan; or
(C) Extend the duration of the Plan under Section 12 hereof
with respect to any ISOs granted hereunder;
(2) With respect to Options to be granted to Key Employees, any
amendment which would require shareholder approval pursuant to
Treas. Reg. (section) 1.162-27(e)(4)(vi) or any successor thereto;
and
(3) Any amendment for which shareholder approval is required
under the rules of an exchange or market on which Common Stock is
listed.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such suspension, discontinuance or
amendment shall materially impair the rights of any holder of an
outstanding Option without the consent of such holder.
(b) Shareholder Approval Requirements. Shareholder approval must
meet the following requirements:
(1) The approval of shareholders must be by a majority of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock present, or represented, and
entitled to vote at a meeting duly held in accordance with the
applicable laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania;
-17-
<PAGE>
(2) The approval of shareholders must be by a majority of the
votes cast on the issue (including abstentions to the extent
abstentions are counted as voting under applicable state law); and
(3) The approval of shareholders must comply with all applicable
provisions of the corporate charter, bylaws, and applicable state
law prescribing the method and degree of shareholder approval
required for the issuance of corporate stock or options. If the
applicable state law does not prescribe a method and degree of
shareholder approval in such case, the approval of shareholders must
be effected:
(A) By a method and in a degree that would be treated as
adequate under applicable state law in the case of an action
requiring shareholder approval (i.e., an action on which
shareholders would be entitled to vote if the action were taken
at a duly held shareholders' meeting); or
(B) By a majority of the votes cast at a duly held
shareholders' meeting at which a quorum representing a majority
of all outstanding voting stock is, either in person or by proxy,
present and voting on the Plan.
(c) Amendments Affecting Non-Employee Directors. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no amendment to any provision of the Plan that would affect
NQSOs to be awarded to Non-Employee Directors shall be made if such
amendment would cause the terms and conditions of grants made pursuant
to Section 7 of the Plan to fail to be fixed in advance, within the
meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission interpretations under
Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
SECTION 12 - Termination of Plan
Unless earlier terminated as provided in the Plan, the Plan and all
authority granted hereunder shall terminate absolutely at 12:00 midnight on
March 18, 2002, which date is five (5) years after the date the Plan was adopted
by the Board (or the date the Plan was approved by the shareholders of the
Company, whichever is earlier), and no Options hereunder shall be granted
thereafter. Nothing contained in this Section 12, however, shall terminate or
affect the continued existence of rights created under Options issued hereunder
and outstanding on March 18, 2002, which by their terms extend beyond such date.
-18-
<PAGE>
SECTION 13 - Shareholder Approval
This Plan shall become effective on March 19, 1997 (the date the Plan
was adopted by the Board); provided, however, that if the Plan is not approved
by the shareholders in the manner described in Section 11(b), within twelve (12)
months before or after said date, the Plan and all Options granted hereunder
shall be null and void.
SECTION 14 - Miscellaneous
(a) Governing Law. With respect to any ISOs granted pursuant to the
Plan and the Option Agreements thereunder, the Plan, such Option
Agreements and any ISOs granted pursuant thereto shall be governed by
the applicable Code provisions to the maximum extent possible.
Otherwise, the operation of, and the rights of Key Employees,
Non-Employee Directors and Consultants under, the Plan, the Option
Agreements and any Options granted thereunder shall be governed by
applicable federal law and otherwise by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.
(b) Rights. Neither the adoption of the Plan nor any action of the
Board or the Committee shall be deemed to give any individual any right
to be granted an Option, or any other right hereunder, unless and until
the Committee shall have granted such individual an Option, and then
his or her rights shall be only such as are provided by the Option
Agreement.
Any Option under the Plan shall not entitle the holder thereof to
any rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise of
such Option and the issuance of the shares pursuant thereto. Further,
notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan or the Option Agreement with
a Key Employee, the Company shall have the right, in its discretion, to
retire a Key Employee at any time pursuant to its retirement rules or
otherwise to terminate his or her employment at any time for any reason
whatsoever.
(c) Indemnification of Board and Committee. Without limiting any
other rights of indemnification which they may have from the Company
and any Related Corporation, the members of the Board and the members
of the Committee shall be indemnified by the Company against all costs
and expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with any claim,
action, suit, or proceeding to which they or any of them may be a party
by reason of any action taken or failure to act under, or in connection
with, the Plan, or any Option granted thereunder, and against all
-19-
<PAGE>
amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is
approved by legal counsel selected by the Company) or paid by them in
satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding,
except a judgment based upon a finding of willful misconduct or
recklessness on their part. Upon the making or institution of any such
claim, action, suit, or proceeding, the Board or Committee member shall
notify the Company in writing, giving the Company an opportunity, at
its own expense, to handle and defend the same before such Board or
Committee member undertakes to handle it on his or her own behalf.
(d) Application of Funds. The proceeds received by the Company from
the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Options granted under the Plan
shall be used for general corporate purposes. Any cash received in
payment for shares upon exercise of an Option to purchase Common Stock
shall be added to the general funds of the Company and shall be used
for its corporate purposes. Any Common Stock received in payment for
shares upon exercise of an Option to purchase Common Stock shall become
treasury stock.
(e) No Obligation to Exercise Option. The granting of an Option
shall impose no obligation upon a Key Employee, Non-Employee Director
or Consultant to exercise such Option.
(f) Listing and Registration of Shares. Each Option shall be subject
to the requirement that, if at any time the Committee shall determine,
in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of
the shares covered thereby upon any securities exchange or under any
state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental
regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in
connection with, the granting of such Option or the purchase of shares
thereunder, or that action by the Company, Key Employee, Non-Employee
Director or Consultant should be taken in order to obtain an exemption
from any such requirement, no such Option may be exercised, in whole or
in part, unless and until such listing, registration, qualification,
consent, approval, or action shall have been effected, obtained, or
taken under conditions acceptable to the Committee. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, each Key Employee, Non-Employee
Director or Consultant or his or her legal representative or
beneficiary may also be required to give satisfactory assurance that
shares purchased upon exercise of an Option are being purchased for
investment and not with a view to distribution, and certificates
representing such shares may be legended accordingly.
(g) Rights as a Shareholder. A Key Employee, Non-Employee Director,
or Consultant shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any
shares covered by his or her Option until the issuance of a stock
certificate to him or her for such shares.
