In addition, you will receive a quarterly stock option grant equal to six-thousand (6,000) options per quarter in which you are a member of the Board on the last day of the quarter, which options (a) shall have an exercise price equal to the 20-day trailing average closing price of the stock (from the last day of the quarter) with respect to the quarter for which the grant relates; and (b) shall have the same vesting period and term as described above.
