     1. Grant of Option. The administrator of the Plan (the “Administrator”) has granted
to the Optionee an Option to purchase the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant, at the
Exercise Price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant, and subject to the terms and

 

 

conditions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. In the event of a conflict
between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option Agreement, the terms and conditions of
the Plan shall prevail.

     If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this Option is
intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code.
Nevertheless, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d), or to the
extent any other requirement of section 422 is not met, this Option shall be treated as a
Nonqualified Stock Option (“NSO”).

     2. Exercise of Option.

          (a) Right to Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable during its term in accordance
with the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Option Agreement.

          (b) Method of Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable by delivery of an Exercise
Notice in the form attached as Exhibit A which shall state the election to exercise the
Option, the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised, and such other
representations and agreements as may be required by the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be
accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all exercised Shares and, where
required, by applicable withholding taxes. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon
receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate Exercise
Price.

          No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless such issuance and such
exercise comply with Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares
shall be considered transferred to the Optionee on the date on which the Option is exercised with
respect to such Shares.

     3. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be by any of the
following, or a combination thereof, at the election of the Optionee:

          (a) cash or check;

          (b) consideration received by the Company under a formal cashless exercise program adopted by
the Company in connection with the Plan;

          (c) surrender of other Shares which, (i) in the case of Shares acquired upon exercise of an
option, have been owned by the Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and
(ii) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the
exercised Shares; or

          (d) such other method as the Administrator permits.

     4. Restrictions on Exercise. This Option may not be exercised until such time as the
Plan has been approved by the shareholders of the Company, or if the issuance of such Shares upon
such exercise or the method of payment of consideration for such shares would constitute a
violation of any Applicable Law.

2

 

     5. Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be transferred in any manner
otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the
lifetime of Optionee only by Optionee. The terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement shall be
binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Optionee.

     6. Term of Option. This Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the
Notice of Grant, and may be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the
terms of this Option.

     7. Optionee’s Representations. In the event the Shares have not been registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, at the time this Option is exercised, the Optionee shall,
if required by the Company, concurrently with the exercise of all or any portion of this Option,
deliver to the Company his or her Investment Representation Statement in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit B.

     8. Lock-Up Period. Optionee hereby agrees that, if so requested by the Company or any
representative of the underwriters (the “Managing Underwriter”) in connection with any registration
of the offering of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act or applicable law of any
other jurisdiction in which an offering is being made by the Company, Optionee shall not sell or
otherwise transfer any Shares or other securities of the Company during the 180-day period (or such
other period as may be requested in writing by the Managing Underwriter and agreed to in writing by
the Company) (the “Market Standoff Period”) following the effective date of a registration
statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act. Such restriction shall apply only to the
first registration statement of the Company to become effective under the Securities Act that
includes securities to be sold on behalf of the Company to the public in an underwritten public
offering under the Securities Act. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect
to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of such Market Standoff Period.

     9. Tax Consequences. Set forth below is a brief summary as of the date of this
Agreement of some of the federal tax consequences of exercise of this Option and disposition of the
Shares. THIS SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO
CHANGE. THE OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF
THE SHARES.

          (a) Exercise of NSO. There may be a regular federal income tax liability, at ordinary
income tax rates, and employment taxes (FICA and FUTA) upon the exercise of an NSO, If Optionee is
an Employee or a former Employee, the Company will be required to withhold from Optionee’s
compensation or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount in
cash equal to the required withholdings at the time of exercise, and may refuse to honor the
exercise and refuse to deliver Shares if such withholding amounts are not delivered at the time of
exercise.

          (b) Exercise of ISO. If this Option qualifies as an ISO, there will be no regular
federal income tax liability upon the exercise of the Option, although the Optionee may be subject
to the alternative minimum tax in the year of exercise. In addition, the Internal

3

 

Revenue Service has proposed rules that would impose employment taxes in some situations on
exercise.

          (c) Disposition of Shares. The disposition of Shares is generally a taxable event.
The tax treatment will depend on whether the Option is an ISO or an NSO, and on the length of time
for which the Shares have been held by Optionee.

          (d) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO Shares. If the Option granted to
Optionee herein is an ISO, and if Optionee sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Shares
acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the later of (l) the date two years after the Date of
Grant, or (2) the date one year after the date of exercise, the Optionee shall immediately notify
the Company in writing of such disposition. Optionee agrees that Optionee may be subject to income
tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized by the Optionee.

     10. Entire Agreement, Governing Law. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference.
The Plan and this Option Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of
the Company and Optionee with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified
adversely to the Optionee’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and
Optionee. This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York.

     11. No Guarantee of Continued Service. OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS
AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS AN EMPLOYEE FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE
IN ANY WAY WITH OPTIONEE’S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE OPTIONEE’S RELATIONSHIP AS AN
EMPLOYEE AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY, OR NO, REASON EXCEPT AS MAY BE PROVIDED UNDER OTHER AGREEMENTS.

     Optionee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that he or she is familiar
with the terms and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts this Option subject to all of the terms
and provisions thereof. Optionee has reviewed the Plan and this Option in their entirety, has had
an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Option and fully understands
all provisions of the Option. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final
all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions arising under the Plan or
this Option. Optionee further agrees to notify the Company upon any change in the residence
address indicated below.

issuance except as provided under the terms of the Plan.

     5. Company’s Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Optionee or any
transferee (either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) may be sold or otherwise
transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall

Section (the “Right of First Refusal”).

otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee

to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more
of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with subsection (c)
below.

          (c) Purchase Price. The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Shares purchased by

          (e) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be
transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s)
as provided in this Section, then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that
Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other
transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date of the Notice, that any such sale or other
transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable securities laws and that the Proposed
Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to the
Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not

Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal
before any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred.

EXHIBIT B

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT

	 	 	 	 	 
	OPTIONEE:
	 	 	 	 
	COMPANY:

	 	 	 	GlobalSecure Holdings Ltd. SECURITY:
	AMOUNT:
	 	 	 	 
	DATE:
	 	 	 	 

     In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, the undersigned Optionee
represents to the Company the following:

          (a) Optionee is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has
acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision
to acquire the Securities. Optionee is acquiring these Securities for investment for Optionee’s
own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution”
thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

          (b) Optionee acknowledges and understands that the Securities constitute “restricted
securities” under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act in
reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the
bona fide nature of Optionee’s investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, Optionee
understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the statutory basis for
such exemption may be unavailable if Optionee’s representation was predicated solely upon a present
intention to hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax
statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the market price of the
Securities, or for a period of one year or any other fixed period in the future. Optionee further
understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered
under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Optionee further
acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities.
Optionee understands that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted with a legend
which prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless they are registered or such registration is
not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, and any other legend required
under applicable state securities laws.

          (c) Optionee is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144, each promulgated under
the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of “restricted securities”
acquired, directly or indirectly from the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions- Rule 701 provides that if the issuer qualifies under Rule 701
at the time of the grant of the Option to the Optionee, the exercise will be exempt from
registration under the Securities Act. In the event the Company becomes subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, 90 days
thereafter (or such longer period as any market stand-off agreement may require) the Securities
exempt under Rule

9

 

701 may be resold, subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions specified by Rule
144, including: (1) the resale being made through a broker in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction”
or in transactions directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended); and, in the case of an affiliate, (2) the availability of
certain public information about the Company, (3) the amount of Securities being sold during any
three-month period not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely
filing of a Form 144, if applicable. In the event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701
at the time of grant of the Option, then the Securities may be resold in certain limited
circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which requires the resale to occur not less
than one year after the later of the date the Securities were sold by the Company or the date the
Securities were sold by an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and, in the
case of acquisition of the Securities by an affiliate, or by a non-affiliate who subsequently holds
the Securities less than two years, the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in sections (1),
(2), (3) and (4) of the paragraph immediately above.

          (d) Optionee further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule
701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A,
or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that
Rules 144 and 70.1 are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has
expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a
registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 or 701 will have a substantial burden
of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales,
and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at
their own risk. Optionee understands that no assurances can be given that any such other
registration exemption will be available in such event.
