Code or 1986, as amended, shall also be amended to permit you to exercise such stock options for a period of 90 days after the effective date of your termination. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the total payments and benefits to be paid to you or for your benefit under this Agreement would cause any portion of those payments and benefits to be “parachute payments” as defined in section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor provision, the total payments and benefits to be paid to you or for your benefit under this Agreement shall be reduced to an amount that would not cause any portion of those payments and benefits to
constitute “parachute payments.” 
 Termination of your employment for “Cause” shall mean termination upon (a) willful and
continued failure by you to perform substantially your reasonably assigned duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from your incapacity due to physical or mental illness) after a demand for substantial performance is delivered

(b) willful engaging in illegal conduct which is materially and demonstrably injurious to the Company, (c) engaging in fraudulent conduct, as evidenced by a determination in a binding and final judgment, order or decree of a court or

negligence in the performance of your duties or responsibilities (unless significantly changed without your consent, as established through written evidence), or (d) a significant violation of the Company’s material, written policies and
procedures. No act, or failure to act, on your part shall be considered “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done without reasonable belief that your action or omission was in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
Company. Any act, or failure to act, specifically based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by you in the best interests of the
Company. 
 A Change of Control shall mean that one of the following events has taken place: 

 

	(a)	The shareholders of the Company approve one of the following: 

 (i) Any merger or statutory plan of exchange involving the Company (“Merger”) in which the Company is not the continuing or surviving corporation or pursuant to which Common Stock would be converted
into cash, securities or other property, other than a Merger involving the Company in which the holders of Common Stock immediately prior to the Merger continue to represent more than 50 percent of the voting securities of the surviving corporation
after the Merger; or 
 (ii) Any sale, lease, exchange, or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. 
  

	(b)	A tender or exchange offer, other than one made by the Company, is made for Common Stock (or securities convertible into Common Stock) and such offer results in a portion of
those securities being purchased and the offer or after the consummation of the offer is the beneficial owner (as determined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), directly
or indirectly, of securities representing more than 50 percent of the voting power of outstanding securities of the Company.

	(c)	The Company receives a report on Schedule 13D of the Exchange Act reporting the beneficial ownership by any person of securities representing more than 50 percent of the voting
power of outstanding securities of the Company, except that if such receipt shall occur during a tender offer or exchange offer described in (b) above, a Change of Control shall not take place until the conclusion of such offer.

 Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, no Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this
Agreement by virtue of any transaction which results you, or a group of persons which includes you, acquiring, directly or indirectly, securities representing 20 percent or more of the voting power of outstanding securities of the Company.
