The Corporation may, upon advice of counsel to the Corporation, place legends on stock certificates issued upon exercise of this Option as such counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to comply with applicable securities laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting the transfer of the stock.

8.              State Securities Laws. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Option, the Corporation may, in its reasonable discretion, determine that the registration or qualification of the shares of Common Stock covered by this Option is necessary or desirable as a condition of or in connection with the exercise of this Option.  If the Corporation makes such a determination, this Option may not be exercised in whole or in part unless and until such registration or qualification shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Corporation, in its reasonable discretion.  The Corporation shall use good faith reasonable efforts to obtain or effect such registration or qualification, but is not required to obtain or effect such registration or qualification.

 

9.              Notices. Any notices provided for in this Option or the Plan shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by the Corporation to you, five days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the address specified below or at such other address as you hereafter designate by written notice to the Secretary of the Corporation.

11.2. You understand that if, among other things, you dispose of shares of Common Stock granted to you pursuant to this Option within two years of the granting of this Option to you or within one year of the transfer of such shares to you, or you exercise this Option more than three months after termination of employment, then such shares will not qualify for the beneficial treatment which you might otherwise receive under Code §§ 421 and 422.

 

11.3. You further understand that upon exercise of this Option you may be subject to alternative minimum tax as a result of such exercise.

 

11.4. You and your transferees have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by this Option until the date of the issuance of a stock certificate for such shares.

 

11.5. The Corporation is not providing you with advice, warranties or representations regarding any of the legal or tax effects to you with respect to this grant.

 

11.6. You acknowledge that you are familiar with the terms of the grant made to you under this Option and the Plan, that you have been encouraged by the Corporation to discuss the grant and the Plan with your own legal and tax advisers, and that you agree to be bound by the terms of the grant and the Plan.

11.8. If the shares underlying the Option are not registered, you understand that the option and the shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws by reason of a specific exemption therefrom and that the option and the shares must be held indefinitely, unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or you obtain an opinion of counsel (in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation and its counsel) that registration is not required.

 

11.9. You acknowledge that the Corporation is under no obligation to register the option or the shares subject to the Option.

 

11.10.

These conditions include (without limitation) that certain current public information about the issuer is available and that the resale occurs only after the holding period required by Rule 144 has been satisfied. I understand that the conditions for resale set forth in Rule 144 have not been satisfied and that the Corporation has no plans to satisfy these conditions in the foreseeable future.

If the Corporation determines, in its sole discretion, that withholding is required, you agree that such withholding may be accomplished with respect to the cash compensation (if any) due to you from the Corporation.  If withholding pursuant to the foregoing sentence is insufficient (in the sole judgment of the Corporation) to satisfy the full withholding obligation, you agree that you will pay over to the Corporation the amount of cash or, if acceptable to the Corporation in its sole discretion, property with a value necessary to satisfy such remaining withholding obligation on the date this Option is exercised or at a time thereafter specified in writing by the Corporation.

 

13.            Entire Agreement.  This Option and the Plan constitute the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter contained herein and they supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, and understandings of the parties.
