The Option shall constitute and be treated at all times by you and the Company as a “non-qualified stock option” for
Federal income tax purposes and shall not constitute and shall not be treated as an “incentive stock option” as defined
under Section 422(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

 

You are granted an Option to purchase [__________]
shares of Common Stock of the Company at the price of $[_____] per share which represents the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock

[Describe vesting requirements].

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Include if applicable: Notwithstanding
the above schedule, in the event your termination of employment is due to your death or disability, the unvested portion of your
Option shall become one hundred percent (100%) vested on the date of your death or disability.]

 

2.          Duration
of Option. Except as otherwise provided herein, this option may be exercised for three (3) months after you terminate employment
with the Company, provided, however in the event your termination of employment is due to your death or disability, the Option
may be exercised for one year following such event. In no case, however, may the Option be exercised after [__________. 20__].

 

3.          Exercise
of Option.

to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in Section 1.

 

(b)          Method

Notice"), which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of shares of Common Stock in respect of which
the Option is being exercised (the "Exercised Shares"), and such other representations and agreements as may be required
by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be completed by you and delivered to the Corporate
Secretary. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate exercise price as to all Exercised Shares. This
Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by such aggregate
exercise price.

 

No shares of Common Stock shall be issued
pursuant to the exercise of this Option unless such issuance and exercise comply with applicable laws. Assuming such compliance,
for income tax purposes the Exercised Shares shall be considered transferred to you on the date the Option is exercised with respect
to such Exercised Shares.

 

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

of other shares of Common Stock which (i) in the case of shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of an option, have been
owned by you 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.

 

5.          Non-Assignability
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 your lifetime only by you except in the case of your disability, this Option may be exercised by your
representative. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be binding upon your executors, administrators, heirs, successors
and assigns.

not be modified adversely to your interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and you. This Agreement is governed
