 4 









	 	
sentence shall have an equivalent value, as determined on any reasonable basis by the Board, to the number of Options that would have been granted. Any such stock award shall be subject to
similar terms as would apply to options granted under paragraphs (b) and (c) with respect to vesting or forfeiture schedules, treatment on termination of status as director, and transfer restrictions. Subject to the foregoing limitations
and the provisions of the Plan, the terms and conditions of any such stock awards shall be set forth in the applicable award agreement as determined by the Board. 


 

	 	(e)	Limitations. 

  

	 	(i)	Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5(b) and 5(c) hereof, in the event that a sufficient number of Shares is not available under the Plan for the grant of
Awards, the remaining Shares shall be prorated based upon the number of Shares each Director was entitled to receive under this Plan. Any further grants shall then be deferred until such time, if any, as additional Shares become available for grant
under the Plan. Subject to the terms of Section 13 hereof, the Board shall have the authority at any time to make additional Shares available for grant under the Plan, subject to obtaining stockholder approval of such increase to the extent
required under Section 13(a) hereof.

Stock on each anniversary of the date of grant. 

  

	 	(d)	Term. The term of each Option shall be ten (10) years from the date of grant, unless (i) a shorter period is required to comply with any applicable
law, in which case such shorter period will apply or (ii) the Committee determines that a term of less than ten years shall apply.

 7. Eligibility. Awards hereunder may be granted only to Outside Directors. The Plan shall not confer
upon any Outside Director any right with respect to continuation of service as a Director or nomination to serve as a Director, nor shall it interfere in any way with any rights which the Director or the Company may have to terminate his or her
directorship at any time. 
 8. Payment Upon Exercise. Payment of the exercise price of any Award shall be made (i) by cash or
check; (ii) to the extent not prohibited by the Board or by applicable law, and provided that a public market for the Company’s stock exists, through a “same day sale” commitment from the Participant and a broker-dealer that is a
member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (an “NASD Dealer”) whereby Participant irrevocably elects to exercise the Award and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased to pay for the exercise price and whereby the NASD
Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the exercise price directly to the Company; or (iii) as otherwise determined by the Board and as permitted by applicable law or regulation. 

9. Withholding Taxes. Whenever, under the Plan, Shares are to be issued pursuant to any Award granted hereunder, the Company shall have the right
to require the recipient to remit to the Company an amount of cash sufficient to satisfy any applicable federal, state or local income and employment tax withholding requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such
Shares. 
  

	10.	Exercise of Options. 

  

	 	(a)	Procedure for Exercise. An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms
of the Option Agreement by the person entitled to exercise the Option and full payment for the Shares has been received by the Company in accordance with Section 8 hereof. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.


  

	 	(b)	Rights as a Stockholder. Notwithstanding the exercise of the Option, until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of a duly authorized
transfer agent of the Company) of the stock certificate evidencing such Shares, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock. A stock certificate for the number of Shares
so acquired shall be issued to the Optionee as soon as practicable after exercise of the Option. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right if the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued.


  

	 	(c)	 Termination of Status as Director. Except as set forth in Section 10(d) or (e), if an Outside Director ceases to serve as a Director, he or
she may, but only within three (3) months (or such other period of time not exceeding six (6) months as is determined by the Board) after the date he or she ceases to be a Director of the Company, exercise his or her Option to the extent
that he or she was entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may the Option be exercised after its term set forth in Section 6 has expired. To the extent that such Outside Director was
not entitled to exercise an Option at the date of termination, or if such Outside 



  
 6 









	 	
Director does not exercise such Option (which he or she was entitled to exercise) within the time specified, the Option shall terminate. 


 

	 	(d)	Disability of Director. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 10(c) above, in the event an Outside Director is unable to continue his or her service as
a Director with the Company as a result of his or her total and permanent disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), he or she may, within six months from the date of such termination, exercise his or her Option to the extent he
or she was entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may the Option be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in Section 6. To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to
exercise the Option at the date of termination, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option (which he or she was entitled to exercise) within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate. 


 

	 	(e)	Death of Optionee. In the event of the death of an Outside Director: 


 

	 	(i)	If the Outside Director dies during the term of the Option, is a Director at the time of his or her death and has been in Continuous Status as a Director since the date
of grant of the Option, the Option may be exercised at any time within six (6) months following the date of death by the Outside Director’s estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but
only to the extent the Outside Director was entitled to exercise the Option at the date of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may the Option be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in Section 6.



	 	(ii)	If the Outside Director dies within three (3) months after the termination of Continuous Status as a Director, the Option may be exercised at any time within six
(6) months following the date of death by the Optionee’s estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent the Outside Director was entitled to exercise the Option at the
date of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may the Option be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in Section 6. 

 11. Nontransferability of Awards. Awards granted under this Plan, and any interest therein, shall not be transferable or assignable by the Participant, and may not be made subject to execution,
attachment or similar process, otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant; provided, however; that Awards held by a Participant may be
transferred to such family members, trusts and charitable institutions as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall approve, unless otherwise restricted from such transfer under the terms of the Award. The designation of a beneficiary by a
Participant does not constitute a transfer. 
 12. Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization. 

 

	 	(a)	 Adjustment of Shares. In the event that the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company is changed by a stock dividend, stock
split, reverse stock split, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company 



  
 7 









	 	
without consideration, the number of Shares available under this Plan, the number of Shares deliverable in connection with any Award and, if applicable, the exercise price per Share thereof shall
be proportionately adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or stockholders of the Company and compliance with applicable securities laws; provided however, that no certificate or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued and
any resulting fractions of a share shall be ignored. 

  

	 	(b)	Change of Control. In the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, a merger in which the Company is not the surviving corporation (other than a
merger with a wholly owned subsidiary or where there is no substantial change in the stockholders of the Company and the obligations of the Company under this Plan are assumed by the successor corporation), the sale of substantially all of the
assets of the Company, or any other transaction described under Section 424(a) of the Code wherein the stockholders of the Company give up all of their equity interest in the Company (except for the acquisition of all or substantially all of
the outstanding shares of the Company), all outstanding Awards, notwithstanding any contrary terms of the Plan, shall accelerate and become vested and exercisable in full prior to and shall expire on the consummation of such dissolution,
liquidation, merger or sale of assets. 

  

	 	(c)	Acceleration Upon Unfriendly Takeover. Notwithstanding anything in Section 12(b) hereof to the contrary, if fifty percent (50%) or more of the
outstanding voting securities of the Company become beneficially owned (as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission) by a person (as defined in Section 2(2) of the Securities Act and in Section 13(d)(3)
of the Exchange Act) in a transaction or series of transactions expressly disapproved by the Board, then all outstanding Awards under this Plan shall become immediately vested and exercisable with no further act or action required by the Committee.


 13. Amendment and Termination of the Plan. 

 

	 	(a)	Amendment. The Board or the Committee may amend the Plan from time to time in such respects as the Board or the Committee, as the case may be, may deem
advisable; provided that, to the extent necessary to comply with any applicable law or regulation, the Company shall obtain approval of the Company’s stockholders to amend the Plan to the extent and in the manner required by such law or
regulation. 

  

	 	(b)	Termination or Suspension. Unless sooner terminated pursuant to this Section 13, the Plan shall terminate on the date that all shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance under the Plan have been issued. The Committee, without further approval of the stockholders, may at any time terminate or suspend the Plan. Except as otherwise provided herein, any such termination or suspension of the Plan
shall not affect Awards already granted hereunder and such Awards shall remain in full force and effect as if the Plan had not been terminated or suspended. 


 

	 	(c)	 Outstanding Awards. Except as otherwise provided herein, rights and obligations under any outstanding Award shall not be altered or impaired by
amendment, suspension 



  
 8 









	 	
or termination of the Plan, except with the consent of the person to whom the Award was granted. The Committee shall have the authority to modify, extend or renew outstanding Awards and to
authorize the grant of new Awards in substitution therefor; provided that the Committee shall not, without the approval of the Company’s stockholders, directly or indirectly reduce the exercise price of any outstanding Award.


 14. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to any Award hereunder unless the issuance
and delivery of such Shares shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities laws, and the requirements of any
stock exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. 
 As a condition to the issuance of Shares pursuant to any Award, the Company may require the Participant to represent and warrant that the Shares are being acquired only for investment and without any
present intention to sell or distribute such Shares, if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of the relevant provisions of the law. 
 Inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdictional authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares
hereunder shall relieve the Company of any liability for failure to issue or sell such Shares. 
 15. Reservation of Shares. The Company,
during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 
 16. Rule 16b-3. The grant of Awards hereunder to persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall comply with the applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3. The Company intends this Plan to
be a “formula plan” under Rule 16b-3 with respect to Awards granted hereunder.
