      TERMS
AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK OPTION AWARD

    

     

    1.            
Grant of
Option.  The Option granted to the Optionee and described in
the Notice of Grant is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which is
incorporated by reference in its entirety into these Terms and Conditions of
Stock Option Award.

     

    The Board
of Directors of the Company has authorized and approved the 2009 Omnibus
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which has been approved by the stockholders of the
Company.  The Committee has approved an award to the Optionee of a
number of shares of the Company’s common stock, conditioned upon the
Participant’s acceptance of the provisions set forth in the Notice and these
Terms and Conditions within 60 days after the Notice and these Terms and
Conditions are presented to the Optionee for review.  For purposes of
the Notice and these Terms and Conditions, any reference to the Company shall
include a reference to any Affiliate.

     

    If
designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this
Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section
422 of the Code.  Nevertheless, to the extent that the Option fails to
meet the requirements of an ISO under Section 422 of the Code, this Option shall
be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option (“NSO”).

     

    The
Company intends that this Option not be considered to provide for the deferral
of compensation under Section 409A of the Code and that this Agreement shall be
so administered and construed.  Further, the Company may modify the
Plan and this Award to the extent necessary to fulfill this intent.

     

    2.           Exercise of
Option.

     

    (a)           Right to
Exercise.  This Option shall be exercisable, in whole or in
part, during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the
Notice of Grant and with the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Option
Agreement.  No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of an
Option unless the issuance and exercise comply with applicable
laws.  Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares
shall be considered transferred to the Optionee on the date on which the Option
is exercised with respect to such Shares.  The Committee may, in its
discretion, (i) accelerate vesting of the Option, or (ii) extend the applicable
exercise period to the extent permitted under Section 6.03 of the
Plan.

     

    (b)           Method of
Exercise.  The Optionee may exercise the Option by delivering
an exercise notice in a form approved by the Company (the “Exercise Notice”)
which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares with
respect to which the Option is being exercised, and such other representations
and agreements as may be required by the Company.  The Exercise Notice
shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Shares
exercised.  This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt
by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the
aggregate Exercise Price.

     

    (c)           Acceleration of Vesting on
Change in Control.  Unless otherwise specified in the Notice of
Grant, in the event of a Change in Control, no accelerated vesting of any
Options outstanding on the date of such Change in Control shall
occur.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    3.           Method of
Payment.  If the Optionee elects to exercise the Option by
submitting an Exercise Notice under Section 2(b) of this Agreement, the
aggregate Exercise Price (as well as any applicable withholding or other taxes)
shall be paid by cash or check; provided, however, that the
Committee may consent, in its discretion, to payment in any of the following
forms, or a combination of them:

     

    (a)           cash
or check;

     

    (b)           a
“net exercise” (as described in the Plan or such other consideration received by
the Company under a cashless exercise program approved by the Company in
connection with the Plan;

     

    (c)           surrender
of other Shares owned by the Optionee which have a Fair Market Value on the date
of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Exercised Shares and
any applicable withholding; or

     

    (d)           any
other consideration that the Committee deems appropriate and in compliance with
applicable law.

     

    4.           Restrictions on
Exercise.  This Option may not be exercised until such time as
the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the Company, or if the
issuance of the Shares upon exercise or the method of payment of consideration
for those shares would constitute a violation of any applicable law or
regulation.

     

    5.           Non-Transferability of
Option.  This Option may not be transferred in any manner
otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be
exercised during the lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee [IF THE OPTION IS A NSO, THE
FOLLOWING LANGUAGE MAY BE INCLUDED PERMITTING LIMITED TRANSFER OF THE OPTION] [;
provided, however, that the Optionee may transfer the Options (i) pursuant to a
qualified domestic relations order (as defined by the Code or the rules
thereunder) or (ii) to any member of the Optionee’s Immediate Family or to a
trust, limited liability company, family limited partnership or other equivalent
vehicle, established for the exclusive benefit of one or more members of his
Immediate Family by delivering to the Company a Notice of Assignment in a form
acceptable to the Company.  No transfer or assignment of the Option to
or on behalf of an Immediate Family member under this Section 5 shall be
effective until the Company has acknowledged such transfer or assignment in
writing.  “Immediate Family” means the Optionee’s parents, spouse,
children, siblings, and grandchildren.  Following transfer, the
Options shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were
applicable immediately prior to transfer.  In the event an Option is
transferred as contemplated in this Section 5, such Option may not be
subsequently transferred by the transferee except by will or the laws of descent
and distribution.]  The terms of the Plan and this Option
Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors
and assigns of the Optionee.

     

    6.           Term of
Option.  This Option may be exercised only within the term set
out in the Notice of Grant, and may be exercised during such term only in
accordance with the Plan and the terms of this Option Agreement.

    7.           Withholding.

     

    (a)           The
Committee shall determine the amount of any withholding or other tax required by
law to be withheld or paid by the Company with respect to any income recognized
by the Optionee with respect to the Option Award.

     

    (b)           The
Optionee shall be required to meet any applicable tax withholding obligation in
accordance with the provisions of Section 11.05 of the Plan.

     

    (c)           Subject
to any rules prescribed by the Committee, the Optionee shall have the right to
elect to meet any withholding requirement (i) by having withheld from this Award
at the appropriate time that number of whole shares of common stock whose fair
market value is equal to the amount of any taxes required to be withheld with
respect to such Award, (ii) by direct payment to the Company in cash of the
amount of any taxes required to be withheld with respect to such Award or (iii)
by a combination of shares and cash.

     

    8.           Defined
Terms.  Capitalized terms used but not defined in the Notice
and these Terms and Conditions shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan,
unless such term is defined in any Employment Agreement between the Optionee and
the Company or an Affiliate.  Any terms used in the Notice and these
Terms and Conditions, but defined in the Optionee’s Employment Agreement are
incorporated herein by reference and shall be effective for purposes of the
Notice and these Terms and Conditions without regard to the continued
effectiveness of the Employment Agreement.

advisors with respect to the tax consequences of this stock option
award.

     

    10.           Regulatory Limitations on
Exercises.  Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Option
Agreement, no option exercise or issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to
this Option Agreement shall be effective if (i) the shares reserved under the
Plan are not subject to an effective registration statement at the time of such
exercise or issuance, or otherwise eligible for an exemption from registration,
or (ii) the Company determines in good faith that such exercise or issuance
would violate any applicable securities or other law or regulation.
