1.           Grant Under 2006 Stock Option Plan.  This option (the “Option”) is granted pursuant to and is governed by the Company’s Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) and, unless the context otherwise requires, terms used herein shall have the same meaning as in the Plan.  Determinations made in connection with this Option pursuant to the Plan shall be governed by the Plan as it exists on this date.

2.           Grant as Non-Qualified Option; Other Options.  This Option is intended to be a Non-Qualified Option (rather than an incentive stock option).  This Option is in addition to any other options heretofore or hereafter granted to the Optionee by the Company, but a duplicate original of this instrument shall not effect the grant of another option.

3.           Extent of Option if Business Relationship Continues.  If the Optionee has continued to serve the Company (or any affiliated corporation) in the capacity of an employee, officer, director, agent, advisor, or consultant (such service is described herein as maintaining or being involved in a “Business Relationship” with the Company) on the following dates, this Option may be exercised for the number of shares set opposite the applicable date, subject to the provisions of Section 14(b) hereof:

-

	
an additional 25% of the total Option Shares

-

	
an additional 25% of the total Option Shares

-

	
an additional 25% of the total Option Shares

The foregoing rights are cumulative and, while the Optionee continues maintain a Business Relationship withthe Company, may be exercised up to and including the date which is ten (10) years from the date this Option is granted.  All of the foregoing rights are subject to Sections 4, 5 and 16, as appropriate, if the Optionee ceases to maintain a Business Relationship with the Company or dies or becomes disabled or undergoes dissolution while involved in a Business Relationship with the Company.

4.           Termination of Business Relationship.  If the Optionee ceases to maintain a Business Relationship with the Company (or any affiliated corporation), other than by reason of death or disability as defined in Section 5, no further installments of this Option shall become exercisable and this Option shall terminate after the passage of ninety (90) days from the date the Business Relationship ceases, but in no event later than the scheduled expiration date.  In such a case, the Optionee’s only rights hereunder shall be those which are properly exercised before the termination of this Option.

  

  

  

 

5.           Death; Disability.  If the Optionee dies while involved in a Business relationship with the Company (or any affiliated corporation), this Option may be exercised, to the extent of the number of Option Shares with respect to which the Optionee could have exercised it on the date of his or her death, by his or her estate, personal representative or beneficiary who has acquired the Option by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, at any time within 180 days after the date of death, but not later than the scheduled expiration date.  If the Optionee ceases to be involved in a Business Relationship with the Company by reason of his or her disability (as defined in the Plan), this Option may be exercised, to the extent of the number of Option Shares with respect to which he or she could have exercised it on the date of the termination of his or her Business Relationship, at any time within 180 days after such termination, but not later than the scheduled expiration date.  At the expiration of such 180-day period or the scheduled expiration date, whichever is the earlier, this Option shall terminate and the only rights hereunder shall be those as to which the Option was properly exercised before such termination.

6.           Partial Exercise.  Exercise of this Option up to the extent above stated may be made in part at any time and from time to time within the above limits, except that this Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share unless such exercise is with respect to the final installment of Option Shares subject to this Option and a fractional share (or cash in lieu thereof) must be issued to permit the Optionee to exercise completely such final installment.  Any fractional share with respect to which an installment of this Option cannot be exercised because of the limitation contained in the preceding sentence shall remain subject to this Option and shall be available for later purchase by the Optionee in accordance with the terms hereof.

7.           Payment of Price.  The Option price is payable in United States dollars only and must be paid:

 

   (a)         in cash or by personal check, or any combination of the foregoing, equal in amount to the Option price; or

 

   (b)        in the discretion of the Board of Directors, in cash, by personal check, by delivery of shares of the Company’s Common Stock having an aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) equal to the Option price as of the date of exercise, by delivery of a personal recourse promissory note, through the delivery of an assignment to the Company of a sufficient amount of the proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the Option and an authorization to the broker or selling agent to pay that amount to the Company, which sale shall be at the Optionee’s direction at the time of exercise, or by any combination of the foregoing, equal in amount to the Option price.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Optionee may not pay any part of the exercise price for the Option by transferring shares of Common Stock to the Company if such Common Stock is both subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture and not transferable within the meaning of Section 83 of the Code.

8.           Agreement to Purchase for Investment.  By acceptance of this Option, the Optionee agrees that a purchase of Option Shares under this Option will not be made with a view to their distribution, as that term is used in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), unless in the opinion of counsel to the Company such distribution is in compliance with or exempt from the registration and prospectus requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and the Optionee agrees to sign a certificate to such effect at the time of exercising this Option and agrees that the certificate for the Option Shares so purchased may be inscribed with a legend to ensure compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.  This section shall not apply in the event the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Option have been registered on a registration statement on Form S-8 which is effective and current under the Securities Act.

9.           Method of Exercising Option.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, this Option may be exercised by written notice to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, at its Horsham, Pennsylvania office, or to such transfer agent as the Company shall designate.  Such notice shall state the election to exercise this Option and the number of Option Shares in respect of which it is being exercised and shall be signed by the person or persons so exercising this Option.  Such notice shall be accompanied by payment of the full purchase price of such Option Shares, and the Company or its transfer agent shall deliver a certificate or certificates representing such Option Shares as soon as practicable after the notice shall be received.  The certificate or certificates for the Option Shares as to which this Option shall have been so exercised shall be registered in the name of the person or persons so exercising this Option (or, if this Option shall be exercised by the Optionee and if the Optionee shall so request in the notice exercising this Option, shall be registered in the name of the Optionee and another person jointly, with right of survivorship) and shall be delivered as provided above to or upon the written order of the person or persons exercising this Option.  In the event this Option shall be exercised, pursuant to Section 5 hereof, by any person or persons other than the Optionee, such notice shall be accompanied by appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise this Option.  All Option Shares that shall be purchased upon the exercise of this Option as provided herein shall be fully paid and non-assessable.

  

  

  

10.           Option Not Transferable.  This Option is not transferable or assignable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

11.           No Obligation to Exercise Option.  The grant and acceptance of this Option imposes no obligation on the Optionee to exercise it.

12.           No Obligation to Continue Business Relationship. The Company and any affiliated corporations are not by the Plan or this Option obligated in any manner to continue to maintain a Business Relationship with the Optionee.

13.           No Rights as Stockholder until Exercise.  The Optionee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to Option Shares subject to this Agreement until a stock certificate therefor has been issued to the Optionee and is fully paid for by the Optionee.  Except as is expressly provided in the Plan with respect to certain changes in the capitalization of the Company, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or similar rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued.

14.           Capital Changes and Business Successions.  (a)  It is the purpose of this Option to encourage the Optionee to work for the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.  Because, for example, that might require the issuance of a stock dividend or stock split, or a merger with another corporation, the purpose of this Option would not be served if such a stock dividend, stock split, merger or similar occurrence would cause the Optionee’s rights hereunder to be diluted or terminated and thus be contrary to the Optionee’s interest.  The Plan contains extensive provisions designed to preserve options at full value in a number of contingencies.  Therefore, provisions in the Plan for adjustment with respect to stock subject to options and the related provisions with respect to successors to the business of the Company are hereby made applicable hereunder and are incorporated herein by reference.  In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company, this Option and the Option price shall be equitably adjusted and, in lieu of issuing fractional shares upon exercise thereof, this Option (and the corresponding Option Shares) shall be rounded upward or downward to the nearest whole share (rounding upward for all amounts equal to or in excess of .51).  In particular, without affecting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood that for the purposes of Sections 3 through 5 hereof, both inclusive, Business Relationship by the Company includes Business Relationship by any affiliated corporation.

(b)           In anticipation of and contingent upon an Acquisition (as defined below), all outstanding Options shall become immediately vested and exercisable with respect to one-half of the shares subject to the Option that were not otherwise vested and exercisable as of the date of such Acquisition (the "Unvested Shares").  The remaining Unvested Shares subject to any Option outstanding as of the date of the Acquisition will become vested and exercisable on the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which the Option would otherwise have become vested and exercisable with respect to the Unvested Shares, (ii) the first anniversary of the Acquisition, provided the Optionee holding the Option remains continuously employed or engaged by the Company or a Related Corporation (or the successor of either) through that anniversary, and (iii) the date, within the twelve (12) month period following the Acquisition, on which the Optionee’s Business Relationship or other service is terminated without Cause by the Company or a Related Corporation (or the successor of either); provided that in no event shall the offer to a Optionee of a new position within the Company or a Related Corporation (or the successor of either) be considered a termination of Business Relationship or other service by the Company or a Related Corporation (or the successor of either) for purposes of this paragraph 14 so long as the offered position is substantially similar to the position held by the Optionee immediately prior to the Acquisition as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.

  

  

  

(c)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Plan, upon or in anticipation of any Acquisition, the Board may, in its sole and absolute discretion and without the need for the consent of any Optionee, take one or more of the following actions contingent upon the occurrence of that Acquisition: (i) cause any or all outstanding Options held by Optionees affected by the Acquisition to become vested and immediately exercisable, in whole or in part; (ii) cause any or all outstanding grants of Awards or authorizations of Purchases to Optionees affected by the Acquisition to become non-forfeitable, in whole or in part; (iii) redeem any share held by a Optionee acquired through an Award or Purchase, which is affected by the Acquisition, for cash and/or other substitute consideration with a value equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of the Acquisition; or (iv) cancel any Option held by a Optionee affected by the Acquisition in exchange for cash and/or other substitute consideration with a value equal to (A) the number of shares subject to that Option, multiplied by (B) the amount, if any, by which the fair market value per share on the date of the Acquisition exceeds the exercise price of that Option; provided, that if the fair market value per share on the date of the Acquisition does not exceed the exercise price of any such Option, the Board may cancel that Option without any payment of consideration therefor.

(d)           For purposes of the Plan, an "Acquisition" shall mean any merger, consolidation, sale of all (or substantially all) of the assets of the Company, or other business combination involving the sale or transfer of all (or substantially all) of the capital stock or assets of the Company, in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or, if it is the surviving entity, does not survive as an operating going concern in substantially the same line of business; provided, however, that the term "Acquisition" shall not include any reincorporation of the Company in a different state pursuant to a migratory merger.

15.           Withholding Taxes.  The Optionee hereby agrees that the Company may withhold from the Optionee’s wages the appropriate amount of federal, state and local withholding taxes attributable to the Optionee’s exercise of any installment of this option.  At the Company’s discretion, the amount required to be withheld may be withheld in cash from such wages, or in kind from the Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the Optionee on exercise of this Option.  The Optionee further agrees that, if the Company does not withhold an amount from the Optionee sufficient to satisfy the Company’s withholding obligation, the Optionee will reimburse the Company on demand, in cash, for the amount underwithheld.

16.           No Exercise of Option if Business Relationship Terminated for Cause.  If the Business Relationship of the Optionee is terminated for “Cause,” all Options and Awards held by such Optionee shall be forfeited and shall terminate on the date of such termination, and no Option held by the Optionee shall thereupon be exercisable to any extent whatsoever. "Cause" is conduct, as determined by the Board of Directors, involving one or more of the following:  (i) gross misconduct by the Optionee which is materially injurious to the Company; or (ii) the commission by the Optionee of an act of embezzlement, fraud or deliberate disregard of the rules or policies of the Company which results in material economic loss, damage or injury to the Company; or (iii) the unauthorized disclosure by the Optionee of any trade secret or confidential information of the Company or any third party who has a business relationship with the Company or the violation by the Optionee of any noncompetition covenant or assignment of inventions obligation with the Company; or (iv) the commission by the Optionee of an act which induces any customer or prospective customer of the Company to break a contract with the Company or to decline to do business with the Company; or (v) the conviction of the Optionee of a felony involving any financial impropriety or which would materially interfere with the Optionee’s ability to perform his or her services or otherwise be injurious to the Company; or (vi) the failure of the Optionee to perform in a material respect his or her employment or engagement obligations without proper cause.  In making such determination, the Board of Directors shall act fairly and in utmost good faith.  For the purposes of this paragraph 16, termination of the Business Relationship shall be deemed to occur when the Optionee receives notice that the Business Relationship  is terminated, and "Company" means the Company and all Related Corporations.

17.           Conditions On Issuance of Shares.  The Company's obligation to sell and deliver shares of the Common Stock under this Plan is subject to the approval of any governmental authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary for the lawful authorization, issuance or sale of such shares.  Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option and the issuance and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.  The Company may postpone the issuance and delivery of the certificate(s) representing the Shares for which an Option has been exercised for such period as may be required by the Company to comply with any applicable listing requirement of any securities exchange or any law or regulation applicable to the issuance or delivery of such Shares.  As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the person exercising such Option may be required to execute an agreement with and/or make any representation and/or warranty to the Company as may be, in the judgment of counsel to the Company, necessary or appropriate under applicable laws or regulations.  Such representations and warranties may include, but not be limited to, a representation and warranty that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares.

  

  

  

 

18.           Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Company and the Optionee have caused this instrument to be executed, and the Optionee whose signature appears below acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and acceptance of an original copy of this Agreement.
