Non-qualified Stock Option Terms and Conditions

 

1. Plan Incorporated by Reference. This Option is issued pursuant to the terms
of the Plan and may be amended as provided in the Plan. Capitalized terms used
and not otherwise defined in this certificate have the meanings given to them in
the Plan. This certificate does not set forth all of the terms and conditions of
the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference. The Committee administers
the Plan and its determinations regarding the operation of the Plan are final
and binding. Copies of the Plan may be obtained upon written request without
charge from the Company.

 

2. Option Price. The price to be paid for each share of Common Stock issued upon
exercise of the whole or any part of this Option is the Option Price set forth
on the face of this certificate.

 

3. Exercisability Schedule. This Option may be exercised at any time and from
time to time for the number of shares and in accordance with the exercisability
schedule set forth on the face of this certificate, but only for the purchase of
whole shares. This Option may not be exercised as to any shares after the
Expiration Date. This Option may be terminated by the Company before the
Expiration Date as permitted by the Plan.

 

4. Method of Exercise. To exercise this Option, the Optionholder shall deliver
written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares with
respect to which the Option is being exercised accompanied by payment of the
Option Price for such shares in cash, by certified check or in such other form,
including, to the extent then permitted by the Committee, shares of Common Stock
of the Company valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of delivery or a
payment commitment of a financial or brokerage institution, as the Committee may
approve. Promptly following such notice, the Company will deliver to the
Optionholder a certificate representing the number of shares with respect to
which the Option is being exercised.

 

5. No Right To Employment. No person shall have any claim or right to be granted
an Option. Neither the adoption, maintenance, nor operation of the Plan nor any
Option thereunder shall confer upon any employee of the Company or of any
Affiliate any right with respect to the continuance of his/her employment by the
Company or any such Affiliate.

 

6. Effect of Grant. Optionholder shall not earn any Options granted hereunder
until such time as all the conditions set forth herein and in the Plan which are
required to be met in order to exercise the Option have been fully satisfied.

 

7. Change of Control. In order to preserve the Optionholder’s rights under the
Option in the event of a change in control of the Company (as defined by the
Committee), the Committee in its discretion may at any time take one or more of
the following actions: (i) provide for the acceleration of any time period
relating to the exercise of the Option, (ii) provide for payment to the
Optionholder of cash or other property with a Fair Market Value equal to the
amount that would have been received upon the exercise or payment of the Option
had the Option been exercised or paid upon the change in control, (iii) adjust
the terms of the Option in a manner determined by the Committee to reflect the
change in control, (iv) cause the Option to

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

be assumed, or new rights substituted therefor, by another entity, or (v) make
such other provision as the Committee may consider equitable to Optionholder and
in the best interests of the Company.

 

8. Option Not Transferable. Unless otherwise approved by the Committee, this
Option is not transferable by the Optionholder other than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution, and is exercisable, during the Optionholder’s
lifetime, only by the Optionholder. The naming of a Designated Beneficiary does
not constitute a transfer.

 

9. Termination of Employment or Engagement. If the Optionholder’s status as an
Employee Participant or a Non-Employee Participant of (a) the Company, (b) an
Affiliate, or (c) a corporation (or parent or subsidiary corporation of such
corporation) issuing or assuming a stock option in a transaction to which
section 424(a) of the Code applies, is terminated for any reason (voluntary or
involuntary), (i) this Option shall not thereafter become exercisable as to any
additional shares and (ii) if the period of exercisability for this Option
following such termination has not been specified by the Board, the vested
portion of this Option shall remain exercisable (to the extent not previously
exercised) for three (3) months after the day on which the Optionholder’s
employment or engagement is terminated, whereupon this Option shall terminate;
except that -

 

(a) If the Optionholder is on military, sick leave or other leave of absence
approved by the Company, his or her employment or engagement with the Company
will be treated as continuing intact if the period of such leave does not exceed
ninety (90) days, or, if longer, so long as the Optionholder’s right to
reemployment or the survival of his or her service arrangement with the Company
is guaranteed either by statute or by contract; otherwise, the Optionholder’s
employment or engagement will be deemed to have terminated on the 91st day of
such leave.

 

(b) If the Optionholder’s employment or engagement is terminated by reason of
his or her retirement from the Company at normal retirement age, each Option
then held by the Optionholder, to the extent exercisable at retirement, may be
exercised by the Optionholder at any time within three (3) months after such
retirement unless terminated earlier by its terms.

 

(c) If the Optionholder’s employment or engagement is terminated by reason of
his or her death, each Option then held by the Optionholder, to the extent
exercisable at the date of death, may be exercised at any time within one year
after that date (unless terminated earlier by its terms) by the person(s) to
whom the Optionholder’s option rights pass by will or by the applicable laws of
descent and distribution.

 

(d) If the Optionholder’s employment or engagement is terminated by reason of
his or her becoming permanently and totally disabled, each Option then held by
the Optionholder, to the extent exercisable upon the occurrence of permanent and
total disability, may be exercised by the Optionholder at any time within one
(1) year after such occurrence unless terminated earlier by its terms. For
purposes hereof, an individual shall be deemed to be “permanently and totally
disabled” if he or she is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity
by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can
be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last
for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months. Any determination
of permanent and total disability shall be made in good faith by the Company on
the basis of a report signed by a qualified physician.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10. Compliance with Securities Laws. It shall be a condition to the
Optionholder’s right to purchase shares of Common Stock hereunder that the
Company may, in its discretion, require (a) that the shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance upon the exercise of this Option shall have been duly
listed, upon official notice of issuance, upon any national securities exchange
or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock may then be
listed or quoted, (b) that either (i) a registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the shares shall be in effect, or (ii) in
the opinion of counsel for the Company, the proposed purchase shall be exempt
from registration under that Act and the Optionholder shall have made such
undertakings and agreements with the Company as the Company may reasonably
require, and (c) that such other steps, if any, as counsel for the Company shall
consider necessary to comply with any law applicable to the issue of such shares
by the Company shall have been taken by the Company or the Optionholder, or
both. The certificates representing the shares purchased under this Option may
contain such legends as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to
comply with any applicable law.

 

11. Payment of Taxes. The Optionholder acknowledges that upon exercise of the
Option the Optionholder will be deemed to have taxable income measured by the
difference between the then fair market value of the Shares received upon
exercise and the price paid for such Shares pursuant to this Agreement. The
Optionholder acknowledges that any income or other taxes due from him or her
with respect to this Option or the Shares issuable pursuant to this Option shall
be the Optionholder’s responsibility. The Optionholder shall pay to the Company,
or make provision satisfactory to the Committee for payment of, any taxes
required by law to be withheld with respect to the exercise of the Option no
later than the date of the event creating the tax liability. The Company and its
Affiliates may, to the extent permitted by law, deduct any such tax obligations
from any payment of any kind due to the Optionholder. In the Committee’s
discretion, the minimum tax obligations required by law to be withheld with
respect to the exercise of the Option may be paid in whole or in part in shares
of Common Stock, including shares retained from the exercise of the Option,
valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of retention.
