      absolute discretion select, to take up an Option pursuant to which such
      Participant may, during the Option Period, subscribe for such number of
      Shares as the Board may determine at the Subscription Price. The Offer
      shall specify the terms on which the Option is to be granted. Such terms
      may at the discretion of the Board, be imposed (or not imposed) either on
      a case by case basis or generally. There are no minimum periods for which
      an Option granted must be held and/or minimum performance targets that
      must be reached before the Option can be exercised in whole or in part,

Price shall be the same, as if such rights of cancellation had been exercise
