ADMINISTRATION.







 


4.01 Administration by the Committee.  For purposes of the power to grant Awards to Company directors, the Committee shall consist of the entire Board.  For other Plan purposes, the Plan shall be administered by a committee designated by the Board to administer the Plan and shall be the Officer Nomination and Compensation Committee of the Board.  The Committee shall be constituted to permit the Plan to comply with the provisions of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or any successor rule, and Section 162(m) of the Code.  A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum.  The approval of such a quorum, expressed by a vote at a meeting held either in person or by conference telephone call, or the unanimous consent of all members in writing without a meeting, shall constitute the action of the Committee and shall be valid and effective for all purposes of the Plan.


 


4.02 Committee Powers.  The Committee is empowered to adopt such rules, regulations and procedures and take such other action as it shall deem necessary or proper for the administration of the Plan.  The Committee shall also have authority to interpret the Plan, and the decision of the Committee on any questions concerning the interpretation of the Plan shall be final and conclusive.  The Committee may consult with counsel, who may be counsel for the Company, and shall not incur any liability for any action taken in good faith in reliance upon the advice of counsel.  Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have full and final authority to:

impose such limitations, restrictions and conditions upon any such Award as the Committee shall deem appropriate;

STOCK OPTIONS.







 


5.01 Granting of Stock Options.  Options may be granted to non-employee directors of the Company, officers and key employees of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries, and to appropriate third parties who can provide valuable services to the Company.  In selecting the individuals to whom Options shall be granted, as well as in determining the number of Options granted, the Committee shall take into consideration such factors as it deems relevant pursuant to accomplishing the purposes of the Plan.  A Grantee may, if he or she is otherwise eligible, be granted an additional Option or Options if the Committee shall so determine.

5.02 Type of Option.  At the time each Option is granted, the Committee shall designate the Option as an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Any Option designated as an Incentive Stock Option shall comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, including the requirement that the Plan be approved by the Company's shareholders.  If required by applicable tax rules regarding a particular grant, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date an Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the shares with respect to which an Incentive Stock Option grant under this Plan (when aggregated, if appropriate, with shares subject to other Incentive Stock Option grants made before said grant under this Plan or another plan maintained by the Company or any ISO Group member) is exercisable for the first time by an optionee during any calendar year exceeds $100,000 (or such other limit as is prescribed by the Code), such option grant shall be treated as a grant of Non-Qualified Stock Options pursuant to Code Section 422(d).


 


5.03 Option Terms.  Each option grant Award Agreement shall specify the number of Options being granted; one option shall be deemed granted for each share of stock.  In addition, each option grant Award Agreement shall specify the exercisability and/or vesting schedule of such options, if any.  No Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable in whole or in part more than ten years from the date it is granted.


 


5.04 Purchase Price.  The purchase price for a share subject to Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the share on the date the Option is granted, provided, however, the purchase price of an Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of such share on the date the Option is granted if the Grantee then owns (after the application of the family and other attribution rules of Section 424(d) or any successor rule of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company.


 


5.05 Method of Exercise.  An Option that has become exercisable may be exercised from time to time by written notice to the Company stating the number of shares being purchased and accompanied by the payment in full of the Option price for such shares.  The purchase price may be paid (a) in cash, (b) by check, (c) with the approval of the Committee, or if the applicable Agreement so provides, by delivering shares of Common Stock (“Delivered Stock”), (d) by surrendering to the Corporation shares of Common Stock otherwise receivable upon exercise of the Stock Option (a “Net Exercise”), or (e) any combination of the foregoing.  For purposes of the foregoing, Delivered Stock shall be valued at its Fair Market Value determined as of the business day immediately preceding the date of exercise of the Stock Option and shares of Common Stock used in a Net Exercise shall be valued at their Fair Market Value determined as of the date of exercise of the Stock Option. No Participant shall be under any obligation to exercise any Stock Option hereunder.

6.03 Method of Exercise.  An SAR that has become exercisable may be exercised by written notice to the Company stating the number of SARs being exercised.


 


6.04 Payment upon Exercise.  Upon the exercise of SARs, the Grantee shall be entitled to receive an amount determined by multiplying (a) the difference obtained by subtracting the grant price from the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise, by (b) the number of SARs exercised.  At the discretion of the Committee, the payment upon the exercise of the SARs may be in cash, in shares of Common Stock of equivalent value (valued at the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise), or in some combination thereof.  The number of available shares under Section 3.01 shall not be affected by any cash payments.

EFFECT OF CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.

(a)  

	
Appropriate provision may be made for the protection of such Award by the substitution on an equitable basis of appropriate shares of the surviving or related corporation, provided that the excess of the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares subject to such Award immediately before such substitution over the exercise price thereof is not more than the excess of the aggregate fair market value of the substituted shares made subject to Award immediately after such substitution over the exercise price thereof; or







 



	
(b)  

	
The Committee may cancel such Award.  In the event any Option or SAR is canceled, the Company, or the corporation assuming the obligations of the Company hereunder, shall pay the Grantee an amount of cash (less normal withholding taxes) equal to the excess of (i) the value, as determined by the Committee, of the property (including cash) received by the holder of a share of Company Stock as a result of such event over (ii) the exercise price of such option or the grant price of the SAR, multiplied by the number of shares subject to such Award.  In the event any other Award is canceled, the Company, or the corporation assuming the obligations of the Company hereunder, shall pay the Grantee an amount of cash or stock, as determined by the Committee, based upon the value, as determined by the Committee, of the property (including cash) received by the holder of a share of Company Stock as a result of such event. No payment shall be made to a Grantee for any Option or SAR if the purchase or grant price for such Option or SAR exceeds the value, as determined by the Committee, of the property (including cash) received by the holder of a share of Company Stock as a result of such event.

10.02 Change in Control.

Further, the Committee shall have the right to cancel such Awards and pay the Grantee an amount determined under Section 10.01(b) above.


 



	
XI.  

	
MISCELLANEOUS.







 


11.01 Withholding.  The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Grantee to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, state, and local taxes (including the Grantee’s FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Plan. With respect to withholding required upon the exercise of Options or SARs, upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock or the payment of Performance Stock, Grantees may elect to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold shares having a Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that could be imposed on the transaction.


 


11.02 No Employment or Retention Agreement Intended.  Neither the establishment of, nor the awarding of Awards under this Plan shall be construed to create a contract of employment or service between any Grantee and the Company or its Subsidiaries; it does not give any Grantee the right to continued service in any capacity with the Company or its Subsidiaries or limit in any way the right of the Company or its Subsidiaries to discharge any Grantee at any time and without notice, with or without cause, or to any benefits not specifically provided by this Plan, or in any manner modify the Company’s right to establish, modify, amend or terminate any profit sharing or retirement plans.


 


11.03 Non-transferability of Awards.  Any Award granted hereunder shall, by its terms, be non-transferable by a Grantee other than by will or the laws of descent and shall be exercisable during the Grantee’s lifetime solely by the Grantee or the Grantee’s duly appointed guardian or personal representative.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may permit a Grantee to transfer a Non-Qualified Stock Option or SAR to a family member or a trust or partnership for the benefit of a family member, in accordance with rules established by the Committee.


 


11.04 Securities Laws.  No shares of Common Stock will be issued or transferred pursuant to an Award unless and until all then applicable requirements imposed by Federal and state securities and other laws, rules and regulations and by any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and by any exchanges upon which the shares of Common Stock may be listed, have been fully met. The Committee may impose such conditions on any shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under the requirements of any exchange upon which such shares of the same class are then listed, and under any blue sky or other securities laws applicable to such shares. The Committee may also require the Grantee to represent and warrant at the time of issuance or transfer that the shares of Common Stock are being acquired only for investment purposes and without any current intention to sell or distribute such shares.

11.06 Dissolution or Liquidation.  Upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, any outstanding Awards theretofore granted under this Plan shall be deemed canceled.


 


11.07 Controlling Law.  The law of the State of Colorado, except its law with respect to choice of law, shall be controlling in all matters relating to the Plan.
