The Board of Directors shall also determine the exercise price and the number of Shares subject to each of such

 



 



 







 



 

Options and shall authorize and cause the Company to grant Options in accordance with such determinations.

 

5.2      Grant. The date on which the Board of Directors completes all action constituting an offer of an Option to an individual, including the specification of the exercise price, vesting schedule,
and the number of Shares to be subject to the Option, shall be the date on which the Option covered by an Agreement is granted, even though certain terms of the Agreement may not be at such time determined and even though the Agreement may not be executed until a later time.
In no event, however, shall an Optionee gain any rights in addition to those specified by the Board of Directors in its grant, regardless of the time that may pass between the grant of the Option and the actual execution of the Agreement by the Company and the Optionee.



Each Option granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Agreement, executed by the Company and the Eligible Individual to whom the Option is granted, incorporating such terms as the Administrator shall deem necessary or desirable. More than one Option may be granted to the same Eligible Individual and be outstanding concurrently.
In the event an Eligible Individual is granted more than one Option, such grants shall be evidenced by separate Agreements.



 

5.3      Forfeiture and Transferability Restrictions. Each Agreement may contain or otherwise provide for conditions giving rise to the forfeiture of the
Shares acquired pursuant to an Option granted under the Plan and for such restrictions on the transferability of Shares acquired pursuant to an Option as the Board of Directors or Administrator, in their sole and absolute discretion, shall deem proper or advisable.
Such conditions giving rise to forfeiture may include, but need not be limited to, the requirement that the Optionee render substantial services to the Company for a specified period of time. Such restrictions on transferability may include, but need not be limited
to, options and rights of first refusal in favor of the Company and members of the Company.

 

PARAGRAPH 6. Terms and Conditions of Options.

 

All Options granted under the Plan shall comply with, be deemed to include, and shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

6.1. Number of Shares. Each Agreement shall state the number of Shares to which it relates.

 

6.2. Exercise Price. Each Agreement shall state the exercise price per Share. Subject to the adjustments provided in Paragraph
6.5. hereof, the exercise price per Share subject to any Option shall be determined by the Board of Directors as provided in Paragraph 5.1. hereof

 

6.3. Medium and Time of Payment, Method of Exercise, and Withholding Taxes. The exercise price of an Option shall be payable
upon the exercise of the Option

 

(a) in cash, or

 

(b) by certified or cashier's check payable to the order of the Company.

 



 



 







 



 

Exercise of an Option shall not be effective until the Company has received written notice of exercise. Such notice must specify the number of whole Shares to be purchased and be accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate exercise price of the number of shares purchased. The Company shall not in any case be required to sell, issue, or
deliver a fractional Share with respect to any Option.





 

The Administrator may, in its discretion, require an Optionee to pay to the Company at the time of exercise of an Option (or portion of an Option) the amount that the Company deems necessary to satisfy its obligation to withhold federal, state, or local income or other taxes incurred by reason of the exercise. If the exercise of an
Option does not give rise to an obligation to withhold federal income or other taxes on the date of exercise, the Administrator may, in its discretion, require an Optionee to place Shares purchased under the Option in escrow for the benefit of the Company until such time as federal income or other tax withholding is no longer required with respect to such Shares or until such withholding is required on amounts included in the gross income of the Optionee as a result of the exercise of an Option or the disposition
of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise. At such later time, the Administrator, in its discretion, may require an Optionee to pay to the Company the amount that the Company deems necessary to satisfy its obligation to withhold federal, state, or local income or other taxes incurred by reason of the exercise of the Option or the disposition of Shares. Upon receipt of such payment by the Company, such Shares shall be released from escrow to the Optionee.





6.4.    Term, Time of Exercise, and Transferability of Options, hi addition to such other terms and conditions as may be included in a particular Agreement granting an Option, an Option shall be exercisable during an Optionee's lifetime only by the
Optionee or by the Optionee's guardian or legal representative.

 

The Administrator shall have the authority to prescribe in any Agreement a vesting schedule that governs when the Option becomes exercisable, except that all Options shall become fully vested and exercisable immediately upon the occurrence of a Change in Control as defined in Paragraph 6.5. The Optionee's Voting Stock Option Agreement shall prescribe a vesting and exercise
schedule.

 

An Option shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

 

The provisions of the remainder of this Paragraph shall apply to the extent an Optionee's Agreement does not expressly provide otherwise. If an Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Individual for any reason other than death or Disability, the Option shall terminate ninety (90) days after such Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Individual. If an Optionee ceases to be an Eligible
Individual by reason of Disability, the Optionee shall have the right for six (6) months after the date of Disability to exercise an Option to the extent such Option is exercisable on the date of his Disability. If an Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Individual by reason of death, Optionee's designated beneficiary shall have the right for six (6) months after the date of death to exercise the Option, to the extent such Option is exercisable on the date of death. At the end of such ninety (90) day or six (6)
month period, as applicable, the Option shall terminate and cease to be exercisable. Each Optionee shall have the right to designate a beneficiary on the form provided by the Administrator. If no beneficiary is designated, Optionee's estate shall have the rights of a beneficiary. No Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from

 



 



 







 



 

the date it is vested (the "Maximum Term"). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or in any Agreement, all Options shall become fully vested and exercisable in accord with the schedule prescribed in the Optionee's Voting Stock Option Agreement.

 

The portion of the Option that is not exercisable on the date the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Individual shall terminate and be forfeited to the Company on the date of such cessation. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, if the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Individual by reason of death, any Options held by such Optionee shall be exercisable in full on the date such Optionee ceases
to be an Eligible Individual, and no portion of an Option held by such deceased Optionee shall terminate or forfeit on the date such Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Individual.

 

The Administrator shall have the authority to prescribe in any Agreement that the Option evidenced by the Agreement may be exercised in full or in part as to any number of Shares subject to the Option at any time or from time to time during the term of the Option, or in such installments at such times during said term as the Administrator may prescribe. Except as provided
above and unless otherwise provided in any Agreement, the vested portion of an Option may be exercised at any time or from time to time during the term of the Option. Such exercise maybe as to any or all whole (but no fractional) Shares which have become purchasable under the Option.

 

Within a reasonable time (or such time as may be permitted by law) after the Company receives written notice that the Optionee has elected to exercise all or a portion of an Option, such notice to be accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Option exercise price of the number of Shares purchased, the Company shall issue and deliver a certificate representing the
Shares acquired in consequence of the exercise and any other amounts payable in consequence of such exercise. The number of Shares transferable due to an exercise of an Option under this Plan shall not be increased due to the passage of time, except as may be provided in an Agreement; provided, however, the number of such Shares which are transferable may increase due to the occurrence of certain events which are fully described in Paragraph 6.5. hereof.

Nothing in the Plan or in any Option granted under the Plan shall require the Company to issue any Shares upon exercise of any Option if such issuance would, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrator based upon the advice of counsel for the Company, constitute a violation of the Securities Act, or any other applicable statute or regulation, as then in effect. At
the time of any exercise of an Option, the Company may, as a condition precedent to the exercise of such Option, require from the Optionee (or in the event of his death, his legal representatives, heirs, legatees, or distributees) such written representations, if any, concerning his intentions with regard to the retention or disposition of the Shares being acquired by exercise of such Option and such written covenants and agreements, if any, as to the manner of disposal of such shares as, in the opinion of counsel
to the Company, maybe necessary to ensure that any disposition by such Optionee (or in the event of his death, his legal representatives, heirs, legatees, or distributees), will not involve a violation of the Securities Act or any other applicable state or federal statute or regulation, as then in effect. Certificates for Shares, when issued, may have the following or similar legend, or statements of other applicable restrictions, endorsed on them, and may not be immediately transferable:

 



 



 







 


 

The Shares evidenced by this certificate have been issued to the registered owner in reliance upon written representations that these Shares have been purchased for investment. These Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any applicable state securities laws, in reliance upon an exemption from registration. Without such registration, these Shares may not be sold, transferred, assigned or
otherwise disposed of unless, in the opinion of the Company and its legal counsel, such sale, transfer, assignment, or disposition will not be in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and any applicable state securities laws.


 

6.5.    Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Merger, Etc. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan to the contrary, in the event of any change in the number of outstanding Shares:

 

(a) effected without receipt of consideration by the Company by reason of a Share dividend, split, combination, exchange of Shares or other ownership interests, merger, or other
recapitalization, in which the Company is the surviving entity, or

 

(b) by reason of a spin-off of a part of the Company into a separate entity, or assumptions and conversions of outstanding grants due to an acquisition by the Company of a separate
entity,

 

(1) the aggregate number of the reserved Shares, (2) the number of Shares subject to each outstanding Option, and (3) the exercise price of each outstanding Option, shall be automatically adjusted to accurately and equitably reflect the effect of such change. In the event of a dispute concerning such adjustment, the Administrator has
full discretion to determine the resolution of the dispute. Such determination shall be final, binding, and conclusive. Furthermore, the number of reserved Shares or the number of Shares subject to any outstanding Option shall be automatically reduced to the extent necessary to eliminate any fractional shares.

 

The following provisions of this Paragraph shall apply unless an Optionee's Agreement provides otherwise. In the event of:

 

(a) a change in the ownership of the common stockholders of the Company where an entity, person, or group acting in concert (a "Person") as described in Section 14(d)(2) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), holds or acquires, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of such portion of Common Stockholders of the Company as constitutes fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding common stockholders then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors,

 

(b) a change in the Board of Directors such that the persons who were members of the Board of Directors of the Company immediately prior to a tender offer, exchange offer, contested
election, or any combination of the foregoing, cease to constitute a majority of the Board of Directors,

 



 



 







 


 

(c) the adoption by the Board of Directors of the Company of a merger, consolidation, or reorganization plan involving the Company in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. For purposes of this Plan, a
sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company shall be deemed to occur if any Person acquires (or during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such Person, has acquired) gross assets of the Company that have an aggregate fair market value equal to fifty percent (50%) of the fair market value of all of the gross assets of the Company immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions,


 

(d) a tender offer or exchange offer made by any Person which, if successfully completed, would result in such Person beneficially owning (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated
under the Exchange Act) either fifty percent (50%) or more of the Company's outstanding shares of common stockholders or shares of common stockholders' having fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding common stockholders (other than an offer made by the Company), and sufficient shares are acquired under the offer to cause such person to own fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting power, or

 

(e) any other transactions or series of related transactions occurring which have substantially the same effect as the transactions specified in any of the preceding clauses of this
Paragraph,

 

(a "Change in Control"), all options shall fully vest and the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may, as of the effective time of such transaction, either (1) change the Shares subject to the Options to another kind of common stockholders (including substitution of shares or shares of another entity) and exercise price in
the manner it deems appropriate, or (2) purchase the Options from each Optionee by tendering cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares represented by the Options less the exercise price of the Option specified in each Agreement, without regard to the determination as to the periods and installments of exercisability made pursuant to an Optionee's Agreement, if (and only if) such Options have not at that time expired or been terminated.

 

6.6. Rights as a Stockholder. An Optionee shall have no right as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered
by his Option until a certificate representing such Shares is issued to him. Upon issuance of one or more certificates representing any such Shares upon exercise of an Option, the Optionee shall become a stockholder but shall only be vested with the limited rights accorded to a shareholder pursuant to the current Bylaws of the Company. No adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash or other property), distributions, or other rights for which the record date is prior to the
date such certificate is issued, except as provided in Paragraph 6.5. hereof.

 

6.7. Modification, Extension, and Renewal of Options. Subject to the terms and conditions of, and within the limitations
of, the Plan, the Administrator may modify, extend, or renew outstanding Options granted under the Plan or accept the surrender of Options outstanding under the Plan (to the extent not previously exercised) and authorize the granting of substitute

 



 



 







 



 

Options (to the extent not previously exercised). The Administrator may not, however, without the consent of the Optionee, modify any outstanding Options so as to specify a higher or lower exercise price or number of Shares. In addition, no modification of an Option granted under the Plan shall, without the consent of the Optionee,
alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Option previously granted under the Plan to such Optionee under the Plan.

 

6.8. Furnish Information. Each Optionee shall furnish to the Company all information requested by the Company to
enable it to comply with any reporting or other requirement imposed upon the Company by or under any applicable statute or regulation.

 

6.9. Obligation to Exercise; Termination of Employment. The granting of an Option under the Plan shall impose no
obligation upon the Optionee to exercise it or any part of it. In the event of an Optionee's termination of employment with the Company or an Affiliate, the unexercised portion of an Option granted under the Plan shall terminate in accordance with Paragraph 6.4.hereof.

 

6.10. Agreement Provisions. The Agreements authorized under the Plan shall contain such provisions in addition to
those required by the Plan (including, without limitation, restrictions or the removal of restrictions upon the exercise of the Option and the retention or transfer of shares thereby acquired) as the Administrator shall deem advisable.

 

PARAGRAPH 7. Remedies and Specific Performance.

 

7.1. Remedies. The Company shall be entitled to recover from an Optionee reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection
with the enforcement of the terms and provisions of the Plan and any Agreement, whether by an action to enforce specific performance, or an action for damages for its breach or otherwise.

used for general Company purposes.

 

10.2. Right of the Company and Affiliates to Terminate Employment. Nothing contained in the Plan, or in any agreement,

10.3. Liability of the Company. Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, or employees,
nor any member of the Administrator, shall be liable for any act, omission, or determination taken or made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Option granted under it, and members of the Board of Directors and the Administrator shall be entitled to indemnification and reimbursement by the Company in respect of any claim, loss, damage, or expense (including attorneys' fees, the costs of settling any suit (provided such settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the Company), and
amounts paid in satisfaction of a judgment, except a judgment based on a finding of bad faith) arising from such claim, loss, etc. to the full extent permitted by law and under any directors' and officers' liability or similar insurance coverage that may from time to time be in effect.

 

10.4. Information Confidential. As partial consideration for the granting of each Option under the Plan, the Agreement
may, in the Administrator's sole and absolute discretion, provide that the Optionee shall agree with the Company that he will keep confidential all information and knowledge that he has relating to the manner and amount of his participation in the Plan; provided, however, that such information may be disclosed as required by law and may be given in confidence to the Optionee's spouse, tax and financial advisors, or to a financial institution to the extent that such information is necessary to secure a loan. In
the event any breach of this promise comes to the attention of the Administrator, it shall take into consideration such breach, in determining whether to recommend the grant of any future Option to such Optionee, as a factor militating against the advisability of granting any such future Option to such individual.

 

10.5. Other Benefits. Participation in the Plan shall not preclude the Optionee from eligibility in any other common
stockholders option or stock option plan of the Company or any Affiliate or any old age benefit, insurance, pension, profit sharing, retirement, bonus, or other extra compensation plans which the Company or any Affiliate has adopted, or may, at any time, adopt for the benefit of its employees.

The Administrator may require any Optionee, legal representative, heir, legatee, or distributee, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a release and receipt for such payment in such form as it shall determine.

 

10.7. No Guarantee of Shares. Neither the Administrator nor the Company guarantees the Shares from loss or depreciation.
In that regard, each Optionee hereby acknowledges that the

 



 



 







 



 

value of the Shares are extremely speculative and no guarantee whatsoever concerning the financial prospects of the Company can be made. Each Optionee should consult his advisors concerning the financial and other aspects of the Plan.

 

10.8. Payment of Expenses. All expenses incident to the administration, termination, or protection of the Plan, including,
but not limited to, legal and accounting fees, shall be paid by the Company or its Affiliates; provided, however, the Company or an Affiliate may recover any and all damages, fees, expenses, and costs arising out of any actions taken by the Company or an Affiliate to enforce its rights under the Plan.

of Directors or by a person authorized to act by resolution of the Board of Directors.

 

10.12. Severability. If any provision of this Plan is held to be illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality
or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions of the Plan, but such provision shall be fully severable, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had never been included in the Plan.

 

10.13. Notices. Whenever any notice is required or permitted under the Plan, such notice must be in writing and personally
delivered, telecopied (if confirmed), or sent by mail or by a nationally recognized courier service.

The Company or an Optionee may change, at any time and from time to time, by written notice to the other, the address which it or he had previously specified for receiving notices.
