There will be reserved for issuance upon the exercise of Options 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock, which will be authorized and unissued Common Stock. If an Option expires or terminates for any reason without being exercised in full, the shares subject thereto which have not been purchased will again be available for purposes of the Plan. The number of shares as to which Options may be granted under the Plan will be proportionately adjusted, to the nearest whole share, in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, share combination or similar recapitalization involving the Common Stock or any spin-off, spin-out or other significant distribution of assets of stockholders for which the Corporation receives no consideration.
