(30) days thereafter (the "Exercise Period").
SECTION 3. CLOSING. Except as provided in Section 4 or as otherwise
-------

------------------------------
Merger or Sale, (i) subject to the provisions of clause (ii) below, this Option
will terminate as of the effective date of any such Merger or Sale, provided
that (x) notice of such termination shall be given to Loeb and the Loeb

this Option to the extent that it is then exercisable, or would become
exercisable as a result of such Merger or Sale, during the 5-day period

consummation of such Merger or Sale and (ii) if the consideration payable in
respect of the Option
-3-
Shares pursuant to the terms of the Merger or Sale consists of stock or other
securities of another entity, Walker, with the approval of Loeb and the Loeb
Affiliates, may provide that after the effective date of such Merger or Sale
this Option shall survive and Loeb and the Loeb Affiliates shall be entitled,

of stock or other securities as Walker received with respect to the Option
Shares pursuant to the terms of the Merger or Sale.

----------------------
beneficially and of record the Option Shares and has good and valid title to
the Option Shares, free and clear of all Liens and (ii) has unrestricted power

payment therefor, Loeb and each Loeb Affiliate shall acquire good and valid
title to the Option Shares, free and clear of all Liens.

construction hereof.
SECTION 9. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The Loeb Affiliates shall be considered
----------------------
