Agreement.

per share of Common Stock of the Company, is below the value per share at which all of the options would be exercisable and is not equal to a value per share at which a specific part of the option becomes exercisable (each such values are
hereinafter referred to as 'price targets'), a part of the option shall become exercisable equal to the number of additional Shares which would have become exercisable had the sales price been at the next highest price target multiplied by a
fraction the numerator of which shall equal the amount by which the sales price in the Change in Control transaction exceeds the next lower price target and the denominator of which shall equal the amount by which the next highest price target
exceeds the next lower price target.
