office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for
election was previously so approved (collectively, the “Continuing Directors”), cease for any
reason to constitute a majority of the Board,

     (c) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other

two people as the Board may appoint to administer the Plan. Unless the Board is acting as the
Committee or the Board specifically determines otherwise, each member of the Committee shall, at
the time he takes any action with respect to an Option under the Plan, be an Eligible Director;
provided that the mere fact a Committee member shall fail to qualify as an Eligible Director shall

Stock were made on said exchange or so quoted on that date, the average of the high and low prices
of the Common Stock on the next preceding day on which sales were made on such exchange or

discretion, by the Committee.

               (a) Power and Authority of the Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee,
which shall have full power and authority, subject to the express provisions hereof, (i) to select
Participants from the Eligible Individuals, (ii) to make Awards in accordance with the Plan, (iii)
to determine the number of Shares subject to each Award or the cash amount payable in connection
with an Award, (iv) to determine the terms and conditions of each Award, including, without
limitation, those related to vesting, forfeiture, payment and exercisability, and the effect, if
any, of a Participant’s termination of employment with the Company or, subject to Section 16
hereof, of a Change in Control on the outstanding Awards granted to such Participant, and including

connection with their Awards, (vi) to construe and interpret any Award Agreement delivered under

administration of the Plan.

3

 

               (b) Plan Construction and Interpretation. The Committee shall have full power and authority,
subject to the express provisions hereof, to construe and interpret the Plan.

               (c) Determinations of Committee Final and Binding. All determinations by the Committee in
carrying out and administering the Plan and in construing and interpreting the Plan shall be final,
binding and conclusive for all purposes and upon all persons interested herein.

               (d) Delegation of Authority. The Committee may, but need not, from time to time delegate some
or all of its authority under the Plan to an Administrator consisting of one or more members of the
Committee or of one or more officers of the Company; provided, however, that the Committee may not
delegate its authority (i) to make Awards to Eligible Individuals (A) who are Section 162(m)
Participants or (B) who are officers of the Company who are delegated authority by the Committee
hereunder, or (ii) under Sections 3(b) and 17 of the Plan. Any delegation hereunder shall be
subject to the restrictions and limits that the Committee specifies at the time of such delegation
or thereafter. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed as obligating the Committee to delegate
authority to an Administrator, and the Committee may at any time rescind the authority delegated to
an Administrator appointed hereunder or appoint a new Administrator. At all times, the
Administrator appointed under this Section 3(d) shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the
Committee. Any action undertaken by the Administrator in accordance with the Committee’s delegation
of authority shall have the same force and effect as if undertaken directly by the Committee, and
any reference in the Plan to the Committee shall, to the extent consistent with the terms and
limitations of such delegation, be deemed to include a reference to the Administrator.

               (e) Liability of Committee. No member of the Committee shall be liable for such person’s own
willful misconduct. Under no circumstances shall any member of the Committee be liable for any act
or omission of any other member of the Committee. In the performance of its functions with respect
to the Plan, the Committee shall be entitled to rely upon information and advice furnished by the
Company’s officers, the Company’s accountants, the Company’s counsel and any other party the
Committee deems necessary, and no member of the Committee shall be liable for any action taken or
not taken in reliance upon any such advice.

               Section 4. Duration of Plan. The Plan shall remain in effect until terminated by
the Board of Directors and thereafter until all Awards granted under the Plan are satisfied by the
issuance of shares of Common Stock or the payment of cash or are terminated under the terms of the
Plan or under the Award Agreement entered into in connection with the grant thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Awards may be granted under the Plan after the tenth anniversary
of the Effective Date (as defined in Section 18(k)).

               Section 5. Shares of Stock Subject to the Plan. Subject to adjustment as provided
in Section 15(b) hereof, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan
pursuant to Awards shall not exceed, in the aggregate, 3,301,058 shares (the “Section 5
Limit”), of which the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan
pursuant to Incentive Stock Options may not exceed, in the aggregate, 3,252,058 shares. For
purposes of determining the number of shares that remain available for issuance under the Plan, the
following rules shall apply:

               (a) the number of Shares subject to outstanding Awards shall be charged against the Section 5
Limit; and

               (b) the Section 5 Limit shall be increased by:

     (i) the number of shares subject to an Award (or portion thereof) which lapses, expires
or is otherwise terminated without the issuance of such shares or is settled by, the
delivery of consideration other than shares,

     (ii) the number of shares tendered to pay the exercise price of a Stock Option or other
Award, and

     (iii) the number of shares withheld from any Award to satisfy a Participant’s tax
withholding obligations or, if applicable, to pay the exercise price of a Stock Option or
other Award.

4

 

In addition, any shares underlying Substitute Awards shall not be counted against the Section 5
Limit set forth in the first sentence of this Section 5.

               Section 6. Eligible Individuals.

               (a) Eligibility Criteria. Awards may be granted by the Committee to individuals (“Eligible
Individuals”) who are officers or other key employees or consultants (including non-employee
directors) of the Company or a Subsidiary with the potential to contribute to the future success of
the Company or its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that no Incentive Stock Options
shall be granted to any Eligible Individual who is not an employee of the Company or a “parent” or
“subsidiary” of the Company, as such terms are used in Section 422(a)(s) of the Code. An
individual’s status as an Administrator or a member of the Committee will not affect his or her
eligibility to participate in the Plan.

               (b) Maximum Number of Shares Per Eligible Individual. In accordance with the requirements
under Section 162(m) of the Code, no Eligible Individual shall receive grants of Awards with
respect to an aggregate of more than 500,000 shares of Common Stock in respect of any fiscal year
of the Company. For purposes of the preceding sentence, any Award that is made as bonus
compensation, or is made in lieu of compensation that otherwise would be payable to an Eligible
Individual, shall be considered made in respect of the fiscal year to which such bonus or other
compensation relates or otherwise was earned.

               Section 7. Awards Generally. Awards under the Plan may consist of Stock Options,
Stock Appreciation Rights, Stock Awards, Performance Share Awards, Section 162(m) Awards or other
awards determined by the Committee. The terms and provisions of an Award shall be set forth in a
written Award Agreement approved by the Committee and delivered or made available to the
Participant as soon as practicable following the date of the award. The vesting, exercisability,
payment and other restrictions applicable to an Award (which may include, without limitation,
restrictions on transferability or provision for mandatory resale to the Company) shall be
determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Committee may accelerate (i) the vesting or payment of any Award, (ii) the lapse of
restrictions on any Award or (iii) the date on which any Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right
first becomes exercisable. The date of a Participant’s termination of employment for any reason
shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. The Committee shall also have full
authority to determine and specify in the applicable Award Agreement the effect, if any, that a
Participant’s termination of employment for any reason will have on the vesting, exercisability,
payment or lapse of restrictions applicable to an outstanding Award.

               Section 8. Stock Options.

               (a) Terms of Stock Options Generally. Subject to the terms of the Plan and the applicable
Award Agreement, each Stock Option shall entitle the Participant to whom such Stock Option was
granted to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock specified in the applicable Award
Agreement and shall be subject to the terms and conditions established by the Committee in
connection with the Award and specified in the applicable Award Agreement. Upon satisfaction of the
conditions to exercisability specified in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant shall be
entitled to exercise the Stock Option in whole or in part and to receive, upon satisfaction or
payment of the exercise price or an irrevocable notice of exercise in the manner contemplated by
Section 8(d) below, the number of shares of Common Stock in respect of which the Stock Option shall
have been exercised. Stock Options may be either Nonqualified Stock Options or Incentive Stock
Options.

               (b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock purchasable under a Stock
Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant and set forth in the Award
Agreement, provided, that the exercise price per share shall be no less than 100% of the Fair
Market Value per share on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exercise price per
share of a Stock Option that is a Substitute Award may be less than the Fair Market Value per share
on the date of award, provided that the excess of:

     (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date such Substitute Award is granted)
of the shares subject to the Substitute Award, over

5

 

     (ii) the aggregate exercise price thereof, does not exceed the excess of:

     (iii) the aggregate fair market value (as of the time immediately preceding the
transaction giving rise to the Substitute Award, such fair market value to be determined by
the Committee) of the shares of the predecessor entity that were subject to the award
assumed or substituted for by the Company, over

     (iv) the aggregate exercise price of such shares.

               (c) Option Term. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee and set forth
in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that a Stock Option shall not be
exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years after the date the Stock Option is granted.

               (d) Method of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award Agreement, the
exercise price of a Stock Option may be paid in cash or previously owned shares or a combination
thereof. In accordance with the rules and procedures established by the Committee for this purpose
and only to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Stock Option may also be exercised through
a “cashless exercise” procedure approved by the Committee involving a broker or dealer approved by
the Committee, that affords Participants the opportunity to sell immediately some or all of the
shares underlying the exercised portion of the Stock Option in order to generate sufficient cash to
pay the Stock Option exercise price and/or to satisfy withholding tax obligations related to the
Stock Option. When payment of the exercise price for a Stock Option consists of shares of the
Company’s capital stock, such shares will not be accepted as payment unless the Participant has
held such shares for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings for
financial reporting purposes.

               (e) (i) Incentive Stock Option. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, if an
Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Participant who owns stock representing more than ten
percent of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, the Option Period shall not
exceed five years from the Date of Grant of such Option and the Option Price shall be at least 110
percent of the Fair Market Value (on the Date of Grant) of the Stock subject to the Option.

     (ii) $100,000 Per Year Limitation for Incentive Stock Options. To the extent the
aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of Stock for which
Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any
calendar year (under all plans of the Company) exceeds $100,000, such excess Incentive Stock
Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options.

               Section 9. Stock Appreciation Rights. Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to
the terms and conditions established by the Committee in connection with the Award thereof and
specified in the applicable Award Agreement. Upon satisfaction of the conditions to the payment
specified in the applicable Award Agreement, each Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle a
Participant to an amount, if any, equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the
date of exercise over the Stock Appreciation Right exercise price specified in the applicable Award
Agreement. At the discretion of the Committee, payments to a Participant upon exercise of a Stock
Appreciation Right may be made in Shares, cash or a combination thereof. A Stock Appreciation Right
may be granted alone or in addition to other Awards, or in tandem with a Stock Option. If granted
in tandem with a Stock Option, a Stock Appreciation Right shall cover the same number of shares of
Common Stock as covered by the Stock Option (or such lesser number of shares as the Committee may
determine) and shall be exercisable only at such time or times and to the extent the related Stock
Option shall be exercisable, and shall have the same term and exercise price as the related Stock
Option. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right granted in tandem with a Stock Option, the
related Stock Option shall be cancelled automatically to the extent of the number of shares covered
by such exercise; conversely, if the related Stock Option is exercised as to some or all of the
shares covered by the tandem grant, the tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall be cancelled
automatically to the extent of the number of shares covered by the Stock Option exercised.

               Section 10. Stock Awards. Stock Awards shall consist of one or more shares of
Common Stock granted or offered for sale to an Eligible Individual, and shall be subject to the
terms and conditions established by the Committee in connection with the Award and specified in the
applicable Award Agreement. The shares of

6

 

Common Stock subject to a Stock Award may, among other things, be subject to vesting
requirements or restrictions on transferability.

               Section 11. Performance Share Awards. Performance Share Awards shall be evidenced
by an Award Agreement in such form and containing such terms and conditions as the Committee deems
appropriate and which are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan. Each Award Agreement shall
set forth the number of shares of Common Stock to be earned by a Participant upon satisfaction of
certain specified performance criteria and subject to such other terms and conditions as the
Committee deems appropriate. Payment in settlement of a Performance Share Award shall be made as
soon as practicable following the conclusion of the applicable performance period, or at such other
time as the Committee shall determine, in shares of Common Stock, in an equivalent amount of cash
or in a combination of Common Stock and cash, as the Committee shall determine.

               Section 12. Other Awards. The Committee shall have the authority to specify the
terms and provisions of other forms of equity-based or equity-related Awards not described above
which the Committee determines to be consistent with the purpose of the Plan and the interests of
the Company, which Awards may provide for cash payments based in whole or in part on the value or
future value of Common Stock, for the acquisition or future acquisition of Common Stock, or any
combination thereof. Other Awards shall also include cash payments (including the cash payment of
dividend equivalents) under the Plan which may be based on one or more criteria determined by the
Committee which are unrelated to the value of Common Stock and which may be granted in tandem with,
or independent of, other Awards under the Plan.

               Section 13. Section 162(m) Awards.

               (a) Terms of Section 162(m) Awards Generally. In addition to any other Awards under the Plan,
the Company may make Awards that are intended to qualify as “qualified performance-based
compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code (“Section 162(m) Awards”). Section 162(m)
Awards may consist of Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Stock Awards, Performance Share
Awards or Other Awards the vesting, exercisability and/or payment of which is conditioned upon the
attainment for the applicable Performance Period of specified performance targets related to
designated performance goals for such period selected by the Committee from among the performance
goals specified in Section 13(b) below. Section 162(m) Awards will be made in accordance with the
procedures specified in applicable treasury regulations for compensation intended to be “qualified
performance-based compensation.”

               (b) Performance Goals. For purposes of this Section 13, performance goals shall be limited to
one or more of the following: (i) net revenue, (ii) net earnings, (iii) operating earnings or
income, (iv) absolute and/or relative return on equity or assets, (v) earnings per share, (vi) cash
flow, (vii) pretax profits, (viii) earnings growth, (ix) revenue growth, (x) book value per share,
(xi) stock price and (xii) performance relative to peer companies, each of which may be established
on a corporate-wide basis or established with respect to one or more operating units, divisions,
acquired businesses, minority investments, partnerships or joint ventures.

               (c) Other Performance-Based Compensation. The Committee’s decision to make, or not to make,
Section 162(m) Awards within the meaning of this Section 13 shall not in any way prejudice the
qualification of any other Awards as performance based compensation under Section 162(m). In
particular, Awards of Stock Options may, pursuant to applicable regulations promulgated under
Section 162(m), be qualified as performance-based compensation for Section 162(m) purposes without
regard to this Section 13.

               Section 14. Non-Transferability. No Award granted under the Plan or any rights or
interests therein shall be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed
of except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a “qualified domestic
relations order” (“QDRO”) as defined in the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder; provided,
however, that the Committee may, subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall
specify, permit the transfer of an Award to a Participant’s family members or to one or more trusts
established in whole or in part for the benefit of one or more of such family members; provided,
however, that the restrictions in this sentence shall not apply to the shares received in
connection with an Award after the date that the restrictions on transferability of such shares set
forth in the applicable Award Agreement have lapsed. During the lifetime of a Participant, a Stock
Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable only by, and payments in settlement of

7

 

Awards shall be payable only to, the Participant or, if applicable, the “alternate payee”
under a QDRO or the family member or trust to whom such Stock Option, Stock Appreciation Right or
other Award has been transferred in accordance with the previous sentence.

               Section 15. Recapitalization or Reorganization.

               (a) Authority of the Company and Shareholders. The existence of the Plan, the Award
Agreements and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or
power of the Company or the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment,
recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its
business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of stock or of options, warrants or
rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights
are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or
transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding,
whether of a similar character or otherwise.

               (b) Change in Capitalization . Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or any
Award Agreement, in the event of any change in the outstanding Common Stock by reason of a stock
dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, stock split, combination or
exchange of shares or any other significant corporate event affecting the Common Stock, the
Committee shall make proportionate adjustments to prevent diminution or enlargement of the rights
of Participants under the Plan with respect to the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock for
which Awards in respect thereof may be granted under the Plan, the number of shares of Common Stock
covered by each outstanding Award, and the exercise or Award prices in respect thereof.

               Section 16. Change in Control. (a) The following provisions of this Section 16(a)
shall apply to Awards granted prior to April 8, 2004, and shall not apply to any Awards granted
after such date unless the holder of such an Award has agreed that the Award shall be governed by
the provisions of Section 16(b): In the event of a Change in Control, (i) all Stock Options or
Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding shall become fully exercisable as of the date of the
Change in Control, whether or not then exercisable, (ii) all restrictions and conditions of all
Stock Awards then outstanding shall lapse as of the date of the Change in Control, (iii) all
Performance Share Awards shall be deemed to have been fully earned as of the date of the Change in
Control, and (iv) in the case of a Change in Control involving a merger of, or consolidation
involving, the Company in which the Company is (A) not the surviving corporation (the “Surviving
Entity”) or (B) becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of the Surviving Entity or any Parent thereof,
each outstanding Stock Option granted under the Plan and not exercised (a “Predecessor Option”)
will be converted into an option (a “Substitute Option”) to acquire common stock of the Surviving
Entity or its Parent, which Substitute Option will have substantially the same terms and conditions
as the Predecessor Option, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and
exercise prices.

               (b) The following provisions of this Section 16(b) shall apply to Awards granted on or after
April 8, 2004, and shall not apply to any Awards granted prior to such date unless the holder of
such Award granted prior to such date has agreed that the Award will be governed by this Section
16(b): Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control,
(i) all Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding shall become fully exercisable
as of the date of the Change in Control, whether or not then exercisable, (ii) all restrictions and
conditions of all Stock Awards then outstanding shall lapse as of the date of the Change in
Control, and (iii) all Performance Share Awards shall be deemed to have been fully earned as of the
date of the Change in Control. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement with respect to
an Award, in the case of a Change of Control involving a merger of, or consolidation involving, the
Company in which the Company is (A) not the Surviving Entity or (B) becomes a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Surviving Entity or any Parent thereof, each outstanding Award granted under the
Plan and not exercised (a “Predecessor Award”) may, if the definitive agreement governing the terms
of the Change of Control transaction so provides, be converted into, or otherwise assumed or
substituted for, an Award (a “Substitute Award”) issued by the Surviving Entity or its Parent,
which Substitute Award will have substantially the same terms and conditions as the Predecessor
Award, with appropriate

8

 

adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and exercise prices and to reflect the
accelerated vesting. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement with respect to an Award,
in the case of a Change of Control involving a merger of, or consolidation involving, the Company
in which the Company is (A) not the Surviving Entity or (B) becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of
the Surviving Entity or any Parent thereof and in which a Predecessor Award is not converted into a
Substitute Award or otherwise assumed or substituted by the Surviving Entity or any Parent of the
Surviving Entity in the Change of Control transaction pursuant to the definitive agreement
governing the Change of Control transaction (a “Non-Assumed Award”), the Committee, in its sole and
absolute discretion, may, with respect to any or all of such Non-Assumed Awards, take any or all of
the following actions to be effective as of the date of the Change of Control (or as of any other
date fixed by the Committee occurring within the thirty (30) day period immediately preceding the
date of the Change of Control, but only if such action remains contingent upon the effectuation of
the Change of Control) (such date is referred to as the “Action Effective Date”), unilaterally
cancel such Non-Assumed Award in exchange for:

     (i) whole and/or fractional shares of Common Stock (or for whole shares of Common Stock
and cash in lieu of any fractional share) or whole and/or fractional shares of capital stock
of a successor (or for whole shares of capital stock of a successor and cash in lieu of any
fractional share) that, in the aggregate, are equal in value to the excess of the Fair
Market Value of the shares of Common Stock then subject to such Non-Assumed Award determined
as of the Action Effective Date (taking into account the accelerated vesting), less the
value of any consideration payable on exercise of such Non-Assumed Award; or

     (ii) cash or other property equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of
the shares of Common Stock then subject to such Non-Assumed Award determined as of the
Action Effective Date (taking into account the accelerated vesting), less the value of any
consideration payable on exercise of such Non-Assumed Awards.

     If a Change of Control occurs, then, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Award
Agreement pertaining to a particular Award or as otherwise provided in this Plan, each Award shall
be governed by applicable law and the documents effectuating the Change of Control.

               Section 17. Amendment of the Plan. The Board or Committee may at any time and from
time to time terminate, modify, suspend or amend the Plan in whole or in part; provided, however,
that no such termination, modification, suspension or amendment shall be effective without
shareholder approval if such approval is required to comply with any applicable law or stock
exchange rule; and provided, however, that the Board or Committee may not, without shareholder
approval, increase the maximum number of shares issuable under the Plan. No termination,
modification, suspension or amendment of the Plan shall, without the consent of a Participant to
whom any Awards shall previously have been granted, adversely affect his or her rights under such
Awards. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Board or Committee shall have
broad authority to amend the Plan or any Stock Option to take into account changes in applicable
tax laws, securities laws, accounting rules and other applicable state and federal laws.

               Section 18. Miscellaneous.

               (a) Tax Withholding. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includable in
the gross income of the Participant for applicable income tax purposes with respect to any award
under the Plan, the Participant shall pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the
Committee regarding the payment of any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to
be withheld with respect to such amount. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in
accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee, the minimum required withholding
obligations may be settled with Common Stock, including Common Stock that is part of the award that
gives rise to the withholding requirement. The obligation of the Company under the Plan shall be
conditioned upon such payment or arrangements and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by
law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the
Participant.

               (b) No Right to Grants or Employment. No Eligible Individual or Participant shall have any
claim or right to receive grants of Awards under the Plan. Nothing in the Plan or in any Award or
Award Agreement shall confer upon any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary any right to
continued employment with the

9

 

Company or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, or interfere in any way with the right of the
Company or a Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any of its employees at any time, with or
without cause.

               (c) Unfunded Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded plan for incentive
compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant by the Company, nothing
contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a
general creditor of the Company. In its sole discretion, the Committee may authorize the creation
of trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to deliver Common
Stock or payments in lieu thereof with respect to awards hereunder.

               (d) Other Employee Benefit Plans. Payments received by a Participant under any Award made
pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall not be included in, nor have any effect on, the
determination of benefits under any other employee benefit plan or similar arrangement provided by
the Company.

               (e) Securities Law Restrictions. The Committee may require each Eligible Individual
purchasing or acquiring shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Stock Option or other Award under the
Plan to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such Eligible Individual is
acquiring the shares for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof. All
certificates for shares of Common Stock delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such
stock-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules,
regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the American Stock
Exchange or any other exchange upon which the Common Stock is then listed, and any applicable
federal or state securities law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any
such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. No shares of Common Stock
shall be issued hereunder unless the Company shall have determined that such issuance is in
compliance with, or pursuant to an exemption from, all applicable federal and state securities
laws.

               (f) Compliance With Applicable Law.

     (i) The Plan is intended to comply with applicable law, including, without limitation,
Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or its successors under the Exchange Act, and the
Committee shall interpret and administer the provisions of the Plan or any Award Agreement
in a manner consistent therewith. To the extent any provision of the Plan or Award Agreement
or any action by the Committee fails to so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the
extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee. Moreover, in the event the
Plan or an Award Agreement does not include a provision required by applicable law,
including, without limitation, Rule 16b-3 to be stated therein, such provision (other than
one relating to eligibility requirements, or the price and amount of Awards) shall be deemed
automatically to be incorporated by reference into the Plan or such Award Agreement.

     (ii) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement to the
contrary, if the consummation of any transaction under the Plan would result in the possible
imposition of liability on a Participant pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the
Committee shall have the right, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated, to defer
such transaction to the extent necessary to avoid such liability.

               (g) Award Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the Plan and any
Award Agreement, the Plan shall govern, and the Award Agreement shall be interpreted to minimize or
eliminate any such conflict or inconsistency.

               (h) Expenses. The costs and expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company.

               (i) Applicable Law. Except as to matters of federal law, the Plan and all actions taken
thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware
without giving effect to conflicts of law principles.

               (j) Reserved.

10

 

               (k) Effective Date. The Plan shall be effective as of November 25, 2002 (the “Effective
Date”).
