authorized pool of Shares, regardless of its vested status.

              (b) The grant of an Option or Restricted Stock shall reduce the
Shares available for grant under the Plan by the number of Shares subject to
such Award.

              (c) The grant of a Tandem SAR shall reduce the number of Shares
available for grant by the number of Shares subject to the related Option (i.e.,
there is no double counting of Options and their related Tandem SARs); PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that, upon the exercise of such Tandem SAR, the authorized Share pool
shall be credited with the appropriate number of Shares representing the number
of shares reserved for such Tandem SAR less the number of Shares actually
delivered upon exercise thereof or the number of Shares having a Fair Market
Value equal to the cash payment made upon such exercise.

              (d) The grant of an Affiliated SAR shall reduce the number of
Shares available for grant by the number of Shares subject to the SAR, in
addition to the number of Shares subject to the related Option; provided,
however, that, upon the exercise of such Affiliated SAR, the authorized Share
pool shall be credited with the appropriate number of Shares representing the
number of shares reserved for such Affiliated SAR less the number of Shares
actually delivered upon exercise thereof or the number of Shares having a Fair
Market Value equal to the cash payment made upon such exercise.

              (e) The grant of a Freestanding SAR shall reduce the number of
Shares available for grant by the number of Freestanding SARs granted; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that, upon the exercise of such Freestanding SAR, the authorized Share
pool shall be credited with the appropriate number of Shares representing the
number of shares reserved for such Freestanding SAR less the number of Shares
actually delivered upon exercise thereof or the number of Shares having a Fair
Market Value equal to the cash payment made upon such exercise.

              (f) The Committee shall in each case determine the appropriate
number of Shares to deduct from the authorized pool in connection with the grant
of Performance Units and/or Performance Shares.

              (g) To the extent that an Award is settled in cash rather than in
Shares, the authorized Share pool shall be credited with the appropriate number
of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the cash settlement of the Award.

         4.3 LAPSED AWARDS. If an Award is cancelled, terminates, expires, or
lapses for any reason (with the exception of the termination of a Tandem SAR
upon exercise of the related Option, or the termination of a related Option upon
exercise of the corresponding Tandem SAR), any Shares subject to such Award
again shall be available to be the subject of an Award.

         6.7 PAYMENT OF SAR AMOUNT. Upon exercise of an SAR, a Participant shall
be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by
multiplying:

              (a) The difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the
date of exercise over the grant price; times

              (b) The number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is
exercised.

              At the discretion of the Committee, the payment upon SAR exercise
may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof.

         6.8 NONTRANSFERABILITY OF SARS. No SAR granted under the Plan may be
sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated,
other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or as permitted under
Section 9. An SAR granted to a Participant shall be exercisable during the
Participant's lifetime only by such Participant.

                                   SECTION 7
                                RESTRICTED STOCK

         7.1 GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK. Subject to the terms and provisions of
the Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of
Restricted Stock to Employees, Consultants or Directors in such amounts as the
Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

         7.2 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT. Each Award of Restricted Stock shall be
evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the Period of Restriction,
the number of Shares granted, and such other terms and conditions as the
Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine. Unless the Committee
determines otherwise, shares of Restricted Stock shall be held by the Company as
escrow agent until the restrictions on such Shares have lapsed.

         7.3 TRANSFERABILITY. Except as provided in this Section 7, Shares of
Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise
alienated or hypothecated until the end of the applicable Period of Restriction.
All rights with respect to the Restricted Stock granted to a Participant under
the Plan shall be available during his or her lifetime only to such Participant.

         7.4 OTHER RESTRICTIONS. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may
impose such other restrictions on any Shares of Restricted Stock as it may deem
advisable including, without limitation, restrictions based upon the achievement
of specific performance goals (Company-wide, divisional, and/or individual),
and/or restrictions under applicable Federal or state securities laws; and may
legend the certificates representing Restricted Stock to give appropriate notice
of such restrictions. For example, the Committee may determine that some or all
certificates representing Shares of Restricted Stock shall bear the following
legend:

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

          "The sale or other transfer of the shares of stock represented by this
          certificate, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law,
          is subject to certain restrictions on transfer as set forth in the
          Universal Detection Technology 2008 - Equity Incentive Plan III, and
          in a Restricted Stock Agreement. A copy of the Plan and such
          Restricted Stock Agreement may be obtained from the Secretary of
          Universal Detection Technology."

         7.5 REMOVAL OF RESTRICTIONS. Except as otherwise provided in this
Section 7, Shares of Restricted Stock covered by each Restricted Stock grant
made under the Plan shall be released from escrow as soon as practicable after
the last day of the Period of Restriction. The Committee, in its discretion, may
accelerate the time at which any restrictions shall lapse, and/or remove any
restrictions. After the restrictions have lapsed, the Participant shall be
entitled to have any legend or legends under Section 7.4 removed from his or her
Share certificate, and the Shares shall be freely transferable by the
Participant.

         7.6 VOTING RIGHTS. During the Period of Restriction, Participants
holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may exercise full voting
rights with respect to those Shares, unless the Committee determines otherwise.

         7.7 DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. During the Period of
Restriction, Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock shall be entitled
to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such
Shares, unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement. If any such dividends
or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares shall be subject to the same
restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Shares of Restricted
Stock with respect to which they were paid.

         7.8 RETURN OF RESTRICTED STOCK TO COMPANY. Subject to the applicable
Award Agreement and Section 7.5, upon the earlier of (a) the Participant's
Termination of Employment, or (b) the date set forth in the Award Agreement, the
Restricted Stock for which restrictions have not lapsed shall revert to the
Company and, subject to Section 4.3, again shall become available for grant
under the Plan.

         7.9 REPURCHASE OPTION. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the
Award Agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase option exercisable upon the
voluntary or involuntary termination of the Participant's service with the
Company for any reason (including death or Disability). The purchase price for
Shares repurchased pursuant to the Award Agreement shall be the original price
paid by the Participant and may be paid by cancellation of any indebtedness of
the Participant to the Company. The repurchase option shall lapse at a rate
determined by the Committee.

         7.10 UNRESTRICTED SHARES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Section 7, and subject to Applicable Laws, the Committee may issue Shares
of Restricted Stock without any applicable restrictions, including Period of
Restriction.

                                   SECTION 8
                    PERFORMANCE UNITS AND PERFORMANCE SHARES

         8.1 GRANT OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Performance Units and
Performance Shares may be granted to Employees, Consultants or Directors at any
time and from time to time, as shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole
discretion. The Committee shall have complete discretion in determining the
number of Performance Units and Performance Shares granted to each Participant.

         8.2 VALUE OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Each Performance Unit shall have
an initial value that is established by the Committee at the time of grant. Each
Performance Share shall have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of
a Share on the date of grant. The Committee shall set performance goals in its
discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine
the number and/or value of Performance Units/Shares that will be paid out to the
Participants. The time period during which the performance goals must be met
shall be called the "PERFORMANCE PERIOD".

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

         8.3 EARNING OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. After the applicable
Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Units/Shares shall be
entitled to receive a payout of the number of Performance Units/Shares earned by
the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of
the extent to which the corresponding performance goals have been achieved.
After the grant of a Performance Unit/Share, the Committee, in its sole
discretion, may adjust and/or waive the achievement of any performance goals for
such Performance Unit/Share.

         8.4 FORM AND TIMING OF PAYMENT OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Payment of
earned Performance Units/Shares shall be made as soon as practicable after the
expiration of the applicable Performance Period. The Committee, in its sole
discretion, may pay earned Performance Units/Shares in the form of cash, in
Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the
earned Performance Units/Shares at the close of the applicable Performance
Period) or in a combination thereof.

         8.5 CANCELLATION OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Subject to the applicable
Award Agreement, upon the earlier of (a) the Participant's Termination of
Employment, or (b) the date set forth in the Award Agreement, all remaining
Performance Units/Shares shall be forfeited by the Participant to the Company,
and subject to Section 4.3, the Shares subject thereto shall again be available
for grant under the Plan.

         8.6 NONTRANSFERABILITY. Performance Units/Shares may not be sold,
transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other
than by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or as permitted under
Section 9. A Participant's rights under the Plan shall be exercisable during the
Participant's lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant's legal
representative.

                                   SECTION 9
                             BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION


         If permitted by the Committee, a Participant may name a beneficiary or
beneficiaries to whom any unpaid vested Award shall be paid in event of the
Participant's death. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations
by the same Participant and shall be effective only if given in a form and
manner acceptable to the Committee. In the absence of any such designation,
benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant's death shall be paid to the
Participant's estate and, subject to the terms of the Plan, any unexercised
vested Award may be exercised by the Committee or executor of the Participant's
estate.

                                   SECTION 10
                                    DEFERRALS


         The Committee, in its sole discretion, may permit a Participant to
defer receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares that would
otherwise be due to such Participant under an Award. Any such deferral elections
shall be subject to such rules and procedures as shall be determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion.

                                   SECTION 11
                       RIGHTS OF EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS

         11.1 NO EFFECT ON EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE. Nothing in the Plan shall
interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate any
Participant's employment or service at any time, with or without cause.

                                      -11-

         11.2 PARTICIPATION. No Employee, Consultant or Director shall have the
right to be selected to receive an Award under this Plan, or, having been so
selected, to be selected to receive a future Award.

                                   SECTION 12
                      AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION, OR TERMINATION

         The Board, in its sole discretion, may alter, amend or terminate the
Plan, or any part thereof, at any time and for any reason. However, as required
by Applicable Laws, no alteration or amendment shall be effective without
further stockholder approval. Neither the amendment, suspension, nor termination
of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Participant, alter or impair any
rights or obligations under any Award theretofore granted. No Award may be
granted during any period of suspension nor after termination of the Plan.

                                   SECTION 13
                                 TAX WITHHOLDING

         13.1 WITHHOLDING REQUIREMENTS. Prior to the delivery of any Shares or
cash pursuant to an Award, the Company shall have the power and the right to
deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount
sufficient to satisfy Federal, state, and local taxes required to be withheld
with respect to such Award.

         13.2 SHARES WITHHOLDING. The Committee, in its sole discretion and
pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit a
Participant to satisfy the minimum statutory tax withholding obligation, in
whole or in part, by delivering to the Company Shares already owned for more
than six (6) months having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld.
The value of the Shares to be delivered will be based on their Fair Market Value
on the date of delivery.

                                   SECTION 14
                                 INDEMNIFICATION

         Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or of
the Board, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and
from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or
reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any
claim, notion, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which
he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under
the Plan or any Award Agreement and against and from any and all amounts paid by
him or her in settlement thereof, with the Company's approval, or paid by him or
her in settlement thereof, with the Company's approval, or paid by him or her in
satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding against him
or her, provided he or she shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own
expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and
defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall
not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons
may be entitled under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a
matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify
them or hold them harmless.

                                   SECTION 15
  ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION, DISSOLUTION, MERGER OR ASSET SALE

         15.1 CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION; NO AWARD REPRICING. Subject to any
required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered
by each outstanding Award, and the number of Shares which have been authorized
for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or
which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an
Award, as well as the price per Share covered by each such outstanding Award,


                                      -12-
<PAGE>

shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of
issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend,
combination or reclassification of the Shares, or any other increase or decrease
in the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the
Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that conversion of any convertible securities of the
Company shall not be deemed to have been "effected without receipt of
consideration." Such adjustment shall be made by the Board, whose determination
in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly
provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or
securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no
adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price
of Shares subject to an Award. Further, except for the adjustments provided
herein, no Award may be amended to reduce its initial exercise price, and no
Award may be cancelled and replaced with an Award with a lower price.

         15.2 DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION. In the event of the proposed
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Committee shall notify each
Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed
transaction. The Committee in its discretion may provide for a Participant to
have the right to exercise his or her Award until ten (10) days prior to such
transaction as to all of the Shares covered thereby, including Shares as to
which the Award would not otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the Committee
may provide that any Company repurchase option applicable to any Shares
purchased upon exercise of an Award shall lapse as to all such Shares, provided
the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the
manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an
Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed
action.

         15.3 MERGER OR ASSET SALE. In the event of a merger of the Company with
or into another corporation, or the sale of substantially all of the assets of
the Company, each outstanding Award shall be assumed or an equivalent option or
right substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the
successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to
assume or substitute for the Award, the Participant shall fully vest in and have
the right to exercise the Award as to all of the Shares as to which it would not
otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Award becomes fully vested and
exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or
sale of assets, the Committee shall notify the Participant in writing or
electronically that the Award shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period
of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and the Award shall terminate
upon the expiration of such period. For the purposes of this paragraph, the
Award shall be considered assumed if, following the merger or sale of assets,
the option or right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share
subject to the Award immediately prior to the merger or sale of assets, the
consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in
the merger or sale of assets by holders of Shares for each Share held on the
effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of
consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of
the outstanding Shares); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such consideration received
in the merger or sale of assets is not solely common stock of the successor
corporation or its Parent, the Committee may, with the consent of the successor
corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of
the Award, for each Share subject to the Award, to be solely common stock of the
successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share
consideration received by holders of Shares in the merger or sale of assets.

         15.4 CHANGE IN CONTROL. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined
below), except as otherwise determined by the Board, the Participant shall fully
vest in and have the right to exercise the Awards as to all of the Shares,
including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested or exercisable. If
an Award becomes fully vested and exercisable as the result of a Change of
Control, the Committee shall notify the Participant in writing or electronically


                                      -13-
<PAGE>

prior to the Change of Control that the Award shall be fully vested and
exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and
the Award shall terminate upon the expiration of such period. For purposes of
this Agreement, a "Change of Control" means the happening of any of the
following events: (a) When any "person," as such term is used in Sections 13(d)
and 14(d) of the Exchange Act (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or a Company
employee benefit plan, including any trustee of such plan acting as trustee) is
or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange
Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty
percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then
outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;
or

         (b) The stockholders of the Company approve a merger or consolidation
of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation
which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding
immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining
outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving
entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by
the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding
immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the stockholders of the
Company approve an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all
or substantially all the Company's assets; or

         (c) A change in the composition of the Board of Directors of the
Company, as a result of which fewer than a majority of the directors are
Incumbent Directors. "INCUMBENT DIRECTORS" shall mean directors who either (A)
are directors of the Company as of the date the Plan is approved by the
stockholders, or (B) are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board of
Directors of the Company with the affirmative votes of at least a majority of
the Incumbent Directors at the time of such election or nomination (but shall
not include an individual whose election or nomination is in connection with an
actual or threatened proxy contest relating to the election of directors to the
Company).

                                   SECTION 16
                       CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES

         16.1 LEGAL COMPLIANCE. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the
exercise of an Award unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and
delivery of Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further
subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such
compliance.

         16.2 INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS. As a condition to the exercise of an
Award, the Company may require the Participant exercising such Award to
represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being
purchased 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.

         16.3 NO RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER . No Participant will have any of the
rights of a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock until the
Shares are issued to the said Participant. After Shares are issued to the
Participant, the Participant will be a stockholder and will have all the rights
of a stockholder with respect to such shares of Common Stock, including the
right to vote and receive all dividends or other distributions made or paid with
respect to such shares.

                                   SECTION 17
                          INABILITY TO OBTAIN AUTHORITY

         The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory
body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company's counsel to
be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall
relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell
such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

                                      -14-

requirements of the Plan.

         19.3 REQUIREMENTS OF LAW. The granting of Awards and the issuance of
Shares under the Plan shall be subject to all Applicable Laws.

         19.4 GOVERNING LAW. The Plan and all Award Agreements shall be

California.

         19.5 CAPTIONS. Captions are provided herein for convenience only, and
