the Company at its principal place of business, stating the number of shares for
which the option is being exercised. The notice must be accompanied by a check
or other methods of payment acceptable to the Plan Administrator for the amount
of the purchase price, and comply with all the requirements of the Company’s
2010 Stock Incentive Plan dated December 7, 2009, a copy of which has been
provided to the Optionee. 

4.          
Capital Adjustments 

The existence of this option shall not affect in any way the

or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the
Company's capital structure or its business; (2) enter into any merger or
consolidation; (3) issue any bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference

merger, reorganization, or consolidation of the Company with any other
corporation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, or the
Company becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of another corporation, any
unexercised options granted under this Agreement shall be deemed cancelled
unless the surviving corporation in any such merger, reorganization, or
consolidation elects to assume the options under this Agreement or to issue
substitute options in place thereof; provided, however, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, if such options would be cancelled in accordance with the foregoing,
the Optionee shall have the right exercisable during a ten-day period ending on
