 appreciation rights will not result in income taxable to the employee or non-employee director. However, the exercise of a nonqualified stock option or stock appreciation right results in taxable income to the holder. At the time of the exercise of a nonqualified stock option, the participant will be taxed at ordinary income tax rates on the excess of the fair market value of the shares purchased over the option’s exercise price. At the time of the exercise of a stock appreciation right, the participant will be taxed at ordinary income tax rates on the amount of the cash, or the fair market value of the shares, received by the employee upon exercise. The grant of an incentive stock option will not result in income taxable to the employee. The holder will not recognize income when the incentive stock option is exercised but the holder must treat the excess of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price as an item of adjustment for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. If the holder disposes of the underlying shares after he or she has held the shares for at least two years after the incentive stock option was granted and one year after the incentive stock option was exercised, the amount the holder receives upon the disposition over the exercise price is treated as long-term capital gain for the holder. If the holder makes a “disqualifying disposition” of the underlying shares by disposing of the shares before they have been held for at least two years after the date the incentive stock option was granted and one year after the date the incentive stock option was exercised, the holder will recognize compensation income equal to the excess of (i) the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date the incentive stock option was exercised or, if less, the amount received on the disposition over (ii) the exercise price. Restricted Stock Awards A participant in the 2024 Equity Plan who is granted a restricted stock award will not be taxed upon the acquisition of such shares so long as the interest in such shares is subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” within the meaning of Code Section 83. Upon lapse or release of the restrictions, the recipient will be taxed at ordinary income tax rates on an amount equal to the then current fair market value of the shares. Any such awards that are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture will be taxed at the time of grant. The basis of restricted shares held after lapse or termination of restrictions will be equal to their fair market value on the date of lapse or termination of restrictions, and upon subsequent disposition any further gain or loss will be
