 Vesting Date: December 31, 2013 
 Number of Options vested on December 31, 2013: Up to 25,000 options per year based on achievement of performance targets set forth below.

 Stock price base (at January 1, 2010): $1.26 per share 
 EBITDA base (2009): $24.0 million 
 Performance Targets (50/50 weighting):

	 December 31, 2013
	  	$	2.15	  	$	6.40	  	$	3.2 million	  	$	35.1 million

 If the performance targets (annual per share increase in stock price and annual
organic EBITDA increase (excluding acquisitions)) are met at the end of any year, the 25,000 options for that year shall be earned for that year and vest on the Vesting Date. If the performance targets are not met in a given year, then the 25,000
options for that year shall be earned pro rata for that year based on the percentage achievement of performance targets for that year. For example, if on December 31, 2010, the stock price has increased $0.40 per share and the EBITDA has
increased 8% or $1.92 million, then 17,813 options shall be earned, calculated by 12,500 ($0.40/$0.64) + 12,500 (8%/10%), meaning 7,813 options shall be earned based on the stock price increase and 10,000 options shall be earned based on the EBITDA
increase. 
 To the extent any options are unearned in a given year because the targeted annual per share increase in stock
price for such year was not met, and at the end of any subsequent year, the price per share of the common stock of the Company exceeds the cumulative stock price per share target as of such date, then any options unearned in any prior year because
the targeted annual per share increase in stock price for such year was not met will be considered earned at the end of such subsequent year. 
 To the extent any options are unearned in a given year because the targeted annual organic EBITDA increase for such year was not met, and at the end of any subsequent year, the actual organic EBITDA
target level is met for such year, then any options unearned in any prior year because the targeted annual organic EBITDA increase for such year was not met will be considered earned at the end of such subsequent year.Stock Option Agreement for the Grant of Non-Qualified Stock Options
