The “Pro Rated Amount” shall mean the product of $200,000 and a ratio, the numerator of which is twelve (12) minus the number of full months that have elapsed between the date the immediately prior Annual Grants were made to the Company’s current Directors (including such date) and the Service Effective Date (but excluding such date), based on a month of 30 days and with the 15th day being rounded up, and the denominator of which is twelve (12).

The Annual Grant will vest in full in one installment on the earlier to occur of (i) the first anniversary of the grant date, and (ii) immediately prior to the Company’s next succeeding Annual Meeting, subject to the Director’s continued service through such vesting date.  Any director receiving an RSU grant in the Pro Rated Amount as set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, shall not be eligible to receive an Annual Grant on the date of the next succeeding Annual Meeting after the date they first become a Director, but shall be eligible to receive an Annual Grant on the date of each successive Annual Meeting thereafter (provided they remain in service as a Director).
