Participant’s lifetime, this Option may be exercised only by Participant. 
 3. Expiration Date. This Option shall expire
ten years from the Grant Date (the “Expiration Date”). 
 4. Exercisability. Subject to Paragraph 7 and except
as provided in Paragraph 8 below, Participant’s interest in the Options shall become exercisable (“Vested”) with respect to one-third of the Options on each of
                    ,                     , and
                    . Once this Option, or any portions thereof, has become exercisable in accordance with the preceding sentence it shall continue
to be exercisable until the termination of Participant’s rights hereunder pursuant to Paragraph 5, 6, 7, or 8 or until the Option has expired pursuant to Paragraph 3. A partial exercise of this Option shall not affect

hereof and such cessation shall not operate to Vest the Options.

ceases to serve on the Board prior to the Expiration Date for reasons other than death, retirement or Permanent and Total Disability, his then Vested and unexercised Options shall be exercisable during the remainder of the period preceding the
Expiration Date. 
 7. Forfeiture. Subject to Paragraph 8 below, all Options that are not then Vested shall be forfeited
if Participant’s service on the Board terminates for any reason other than on account of Participant’s death, retirement, or Permanent and Total Disability. 
 8. Change in Control. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Participant’s Options shall be Vested in full to the extent not then Vested or exercised if Participant’s service on
