Option on the date on which the Stock Option is granted.

Common Stock with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Key Employee during any calendar year (under all
incentive stock option plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall not exceed $100,000. If the aggregate Fair Market Value
(determined at the time of grant) of the Common Stock subject to an ISO which first becomes exercisable in any calendar year exceeds
the limitation of this Section 5.4(a), so much of the ISO that does not exceed the applicable dollar limit shall be an ISO and

arising out of the exercise of an SAR by the payment of cash in lieu of all or part of the shares it would otherwise be obligated
to deliver in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such shares on the date of exercise. Cash shall be delivered in lieu
of any fractional shares. The terms and conditions of any such Award shall be determined at the time of grant.

SAR is granted.


 


(c)           
Each SAR shall expire and all rights thereunder shall cease on the date fixed by the Committee in the related SAR Agreement,
which shall not be later than the ten years after the date of grant; provided however, if a Participant is unable to exercise an
SAR because trading in the Common Stock is prohibited by law or the Company’s insider-trading policy, the SAR exercise date
shall be extended to the date that is 30 days after the expiration of the trading prohibition.


 


(d)           
Each SAR shall become exercisable as provided in the related SAR Agreement; provided that notwithstanding any other Plan
provision, the Committee shall have the discretion to accelerate the date as of which any SAR shall become exercisable in the event
of the Participant’s termination of employment, or service on the Board, without cause (as determined by the Committee in
its sole discretion).

No dividends or dividend equivalents shall be paid with respect to any SAR prior to the exercise of the SAR.


 


(f)            
A person entitled to exercise an SAR may do so by delivery of a written notice in accordance with procedures established
by the Committee specifying the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the SAR is being exercised and any other
information the Committee may prescribe. As soon as reasonably practicable after the exercise of an SAR, the Company shall (i)
issue the total number of full shares of Common Stock to which the Participant is entitled and cash in an amount equal to the Fair
Market Value, as of the date of exercise, of any resulting fractional share, and (ii) if the Committee causes the Company to elect
to settle all or part of its obligations arising out of the exercise of the SAR in cash, deliver to the Participant an amount in
cash equal to the Fair Market Value, as of the date of exercise, of the shares it would otherwise be obligated to deliver.

in the election of directors immediately prior to such transaction, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately
prior to such transaction, of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;


 


(c)           
the election to the Board, without the recommendation or approval of two-thirds of the incumbent Board, of the lesser of:
(i) three Directors; or (ii) Directors constituting a majority of the number of Directors of the Company then in office; provided,
however, that Directors whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest, including
but not limited to a consent solicitation, relating to the election of Directors of the Company will not be considered as incumbent
members of the Board for purposes of this Section; or


 


(d)          
there is a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or the Company sells all or substantially all of its business
and/or assets to another corporation or other Person unless, following such sale, more than 50% of the combined voting power of
the outstanding securities of the acquiring corporation or Person or its parent entity entitled to vote generally in the election
of directors (or Persons performing similar functions) is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially
all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors immediately prior to such sale, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership,
immediately prior to such sale, of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors.


 


In no event, however,
shall a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred, with respect to a Participant, if that Participant is part of a purchasing
group which consummates the Change in Control transaction. A Participant shall be deemed “part of a purchasing group”
for purposes of the preceding sentence if the Participant is an equity participant or has agreed to become an equity participant
in the purchasing company or group (except for (a) passive ownership of less than 3% of the shares of the purchasing company; or
(b) ownership of equity participation in the purchasing company or group which is otherwise not deemed to be significant, as determined
prior to the Change in Control by a majority of the disinterested Directors).

Payment of Taxes.



 


(a)           
In connection with any Award, and as a condition to the issuance or delivery of any shares of Common Stock to the Participant
in connection therewith, the Company shall require the Participant to pay the Company the minimum amount of federal, state, local
or foreign taxes required to be withheld, and in the Company’s sole discretion, the Company may permit the Participant to
pay the Company up to the maximum individual statutory rate of applicable withholding.


 


(b)          
The Company in its sole discretion may make available one or more of the following alternatives for the payment of such
taxes: (i) in cash; (ii) in cash received from a broker-dealer to whom the Participant has submitted notice together with irrevocable
instructions to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sales proceeds from the sale of the shares subject to the Award to
pay the withholding taxes; (iii) by directing the Company to withhold such number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable
in connection with the Award having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld;
(iv) by delivering previously acquired shares of Common Stock of the Company that are acceptable to the Board that have an aggregate
Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld; or (v) by certifying to ownership by attestation of such previously
acquired shares of Common Stock.


 


The Committee shall have
the sole discretion to establish the terms and conditions applicable to any alternative made available for payment of the required
withholding taxes.

		Section	11.          
Postponement.



 


The Committee may postpone
any grant or settlement of an Award or exercise of a Stock Option or SAR for such time as the Board in its sole discretion may
deem necessary in order to permit the Company:


 


(a)           
to effect, amend or maintain any necessary registration of the Plan or the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to an
Award, including upon the exercise of a Stock Option or SAR, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws
of any applicable jurisdiction;


 


(b)           
to permit any action to be taken in order to (i) list such shares of Common Stock on a stock exchange if shares of Common
Stock are then listed on such exchange or (ii) comply with restrictions or regulations incident to the maintenance of a public
market for its shares of Common Stock, including any rules or regulations of any stock exchange on which the shares of Common Stock
are listed; or


 


(c)           
to determine that such shares of Common Stock and the Plan are exempt from such registration or that no action of the kind
referred to in (b)(ii) above needs to be taken; and the Company shall not be obligated by virtue of any terms and conditions of
any Award or any provision of the Plan to sell or issue shares of Common Stock in violation of the Securities Act of 1933 or the
law of any government having jurisdiction thereof.


 


Any such postponement
shall not extend the term of an Award and neither the Company nor its Directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability
to a Participant, the Participant’s successor or any other person with respect to any shares of Common Stock as to which
the Award shall lapse because of such postponement.


 


		Section	12.          
Nontransferability.



 


Awards granted under
the Plan, and any rights and privileges pertaining thereto, may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any manner,
or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process, by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or by the laws
of descent and distribution.


 


		Section	13.          
Delivery of Shares.



 


Shares of Common Stock
issued pursuant to a Stock Award, the exercise of a Stock or SAR or the settlement of a Stock Unit Award shall be represented by
stock certificates or on a non-certificated basis, with the ownership of such shares by the Participant evidenced solely by book
entry in the records of the Company’s transfer agent; provided, however, that upon the written request of the Participant,
the Company shall issue, in the name of the Participant, stock certificates representing such shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, shares granted pursuant to a Stock Award shall be held by the Secretary of the Company until such time as the shares
are forfeited or settled.


 


		Section	14.          
Termination or Amendment of Plan and Award Agreements.



 


14.1         
Termination or Amendment of Plan.


 


(a)           
Except as described in Section 14.3 below, the Board may terminate, suspend, or amend the Plan, in whole or in part, from
time to time, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, unless such approval is required by applicable law, regulation
or rule of any stock exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are listed. No amendment or termination of the Plan shall adversely
affect the right of any Participant under any outstanding Award in any material way without the written consent of the Participant,
unless such amendment or termination is required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any stock exchange on which the shares
of Common Stock are listed. Subject to the foregoing, the Committee may correct any defect or supply an omission or reconcile any
inconsistency in the Plan or in any Award granted hereunder in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable, in its sole
discretion, to effectuate the Plan.

(b)

regulation or accounting rules in order to permit Participants who are located outside of the United States to participate in the
Plan.


 


14.2         
Amendment of Award Agreements.


 


The Committee shall
have the authority to amend any Award Agreement at any time; provided however, that no such amendment shall adversely affect the
right of any Participant under any outstanding Award Agreement in any material way without the written consent of the Participant,
unless such amendment is required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any stock exchange on which the shares of Common Stock
are listed.


 


14.3         
No Repricing of Stock Options.


 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing, and except as described in Section 4.3, there shall be no amendment to the Plan or any outstanding Stock Option Agreement
or SAR Agreement that results in the repricing of Stock Options or SARs without stockholder approval. For this purpose, repricing
includes (i) a reduction in the exercise price of the Stock Option or SARs or (ii) the cancellation of a Stock Option in exchange
for cash, Stock Options or SARs with an exercise price less than the exercise price of the cancelled Options or SARs, other Awards
or any other consideration provided by the Company, but does not include any adjustment described in Section 4.3.


 


		Section	15.          
No Contract of Employment.



 


Neither the adoption
of the Plan nor the grant of any Award under the Plan shall be deemed to obligate the Company or any Subsidiary to continue the
employment of any Participant for any particular period, nor shall the granting of an Award constitute a request or consent to
postpone the retirement date of any Participant.


 


		Section	16.          
Applicable Law.



 


All questions pertaining
to the validity, construction and administration of the Plan and all Awards granted under the Plan shall be determined in conformity
with the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to the conflict of law provisions of any state, and, in the case of Incentive
Stock Options, Section 422 of the Code and regulations issued thereunder.
