Subject to any antidilution adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2 hereof, the maximum number of shares of Stock which may be issued and sold hereunder shall not exceed 1,400,000 shares of Stock. Shares of Stock subject to an Option may be either authorized and unissued shares or shares issued and later acquired by the Company; provided however, the shares of Stock with respect to which an Option has been exercised shall not again be available for Option hereunder. If outstanding Options granted hereunder shall terminate or expire for any reason without being wholly exercised prior to the end of the period during which Options may be granted hereunder, new Options may be granted hereunder covering such unexercised shares.

          4.2 Antidilution. In the event that the outstanding shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company or of another corporation by reason of merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination of shares, stock splitup or stock dividend:

     (a) The rights under outstanding Options granted hereunder, both as to the number of subject shares and the Option price, shall be adjusted appropriately; and

     (b) Where dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any merger or combination in which the Company is not a surviving corporation is involved, each outstanding Option granted hereunder shall terminate, but the Optionee shall have the right, immediately prior to such dissolution, liquidation, merger or combination, to exercise his Option, in whole or in part, to the extent that it shall not have been exercised, without regard to the date on which such Option would otherwise have become exercisable pursuant to Sections 5.4 and 5.5.

          The foregoing adjustments and the manner of application thereof shall be determined solely by the Board, and any such adjustment may provide for the elimination of fractional share interests. The adjustments required under this Article shall apply to any successor or successors of the Company and shall be made regardless of the number or type of successive events requiring adjustments hereunder.

ARTICLE V

OPTIONS

          5.1 Option Grant, Number of Shares and Agreement.

     (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 5.1(b) hereof, each Eligible Director shall automatically be granted an Option to purchase Ten Thousand (10,000) shares of Stock on each Date of Grant. Each Option so granted shall be evidenced by a written Stock Option Agreement, dated as of the Date of Grant and executed by the Company and the Optionee, stating the Option’s duration, time of exercise, and exercise price. The terms and conditions of the Option shall be consistent with the Plan.

     (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.1(a) hereof, an Eligible Director shall not be entitled to receive a grant of an Option on any Date of Grant unless the Deemed Value of all shares of Stock owned by such Eligible Director on such Date of Grant shall be no less than three hundred percent (300%) of (i) such Director’s Compensation during the preceding fiscal year of the Company or (ii) if such Director has not previously served, or served for less than a full fiscal year, the average of all Eligible Directors’ Compensation during the preceding fiscal year of the Company, as determined by the Board and provided to such Director in writing at least 10 days prior to the relevant Date of Grant; provided that if an Eligible Director has satisfied the condition set forth above as of a Date of Grant (the “Qualifying Date”), such Eligible Director shall not be required to satisfy such condition on each subsequent Date of Grant so long as he or she owns on such subsequent date at least that number of shares of Stock as he or she owned on the Qualifying Date (as adjusted for stock splits, combinations, dividends and similar events). An Eligible Director, who shall not be entitled to receive a grant of an Option on any particular Date of Grant as a result of the limitation set forth in this Section 5.1(b), shall not be precluded from receiving a grant of an option pursuant to Section 5.1(a) hereof on any subsequent Dates of Grant on which the limitation set forth herein shall be satisfied.

          5.2 Option Price. The Option Price of the Stock subject to each Option shall be the Fair Market Value of the Stock on its Date of Grant.

          5.3 Exercise Period. The period for the exercise of each Option shall expire on the tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant.

          5.4 Option Exercise.

     (a) Any Option granted under the Plan shall only become exercisable in full on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant, provided that the Eligible Director has not voluntarily resigned, or been removed “for cause”, as a member of the Board of Directors on or prior to the first anniversary of the Date of Grant. An Option shall remain exercisable after its exercise date at all times during the Exercise Period, regardless of whether the Optionee thereafter continues to serve as a member of the Board.

     (b) An Option may be exercised at any time or from time to time during the term of the Option as to any or all full shares which have become exercisable in accordance with this Section, but not as to less than 25 shares of Stock unless the remaining shares of Stock that are so exercisable are less than 25 shares of Stock. The Option price is to be paid in full in cash upon the exercise of the Option. The holder of an Option shall not have any of the rights of a Stockholder with respect to the shares of Stock subject to the Option until such shares of Stock have been issued or transferred to him upon the exercise of his Option.

     (c) An Option shall be exercised by written notice of exercise of the Option, with respect to a specified number of shares of Stock, delivered to the Company at its principal office, and by cash payment to the Company at said office of the full amount of the Option price for such number of shares. In addition to, and prior to the issuance of a certificate for shares pursuant to any Option exercise, the Optionee shall pay to the Company in cash the full amount of any federal and state withholding or other employment taxes applicable to the taxable income of such Optionee resulting from such exercise.

          5.5 Nontransferability of Option. Unless otherwise provided in the relevant Stock Option Agreement, options may not be transferred by an Optionee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Unless otherwise provided in the relevant Stock Option Agreement, during the lifetime of an Optionee, his Option may be exercised only by him (or by his guardian or legal representative, should one be appointed). In the event of the death of an Optionee, any Option held by him may be exercised by his legatee(s) or other distributee(s) or by his personal representative.

ARTICLE VI

STOCK CERTIFICATES

          The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for shares of Stock purchased upon the exercise of any Option granted hereunder or any portion thereof unless, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, there has been compliance with all applicable legal requirements. An Option granted under the Plan may provide that the Company’s obligation to deliver shares of Stock upon the exercise thereof may be conditioned upon the receipt by the Company of a representation as to the investment intention of the holder thereof in such form as the Company shall determine to be necessary or advisable solely to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any other federal, state or local securities laws.
