Right to Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable during its Term in accordance with the vesting schedule set out in the Notice of Option Grant and with the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Option Agreement.

4.2.
Continuous Engagement Required. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3 or 4 of the Notice of Option Grant, this Option may not be exercised unless the Optionee, at the time he exercises this Option is, and has been at all times since the Date of Grant set out in the Notice of Option Grant engaged by the Company or any Affiliate thereof.

Method of Exercise. This Option shall be exercised by delivery of a signed notice of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Notice of Exercise"), which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised, and shall be accompanied with such other representations and agreements, as may be required by the Company and/or any applicable laws. The Notice of Exercise shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares to be purchased. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Notice of Exercise and settlement of payment of the aggregate Exercise Price in such form satisfactory to the Company. The Optionee may purchase less than the number of Shares covered by the Option, provided that no partial exercise of this Option may be for a fraction of a Share. If any fractional interest in a Share would be deliverable upon exercise, including but not limited to, as result of adjustments as provided in Section 13 of the Plan, such fraction shall be rounded up one-half or less, or otherwise rounded down, to the nearest whole number of Shares.

Cash;

(b)
Check or wire transfer;

(c)
At the discretion of the Committee, consideration received by the Company under a broker-assisted sale and remittance program acceptable to the Committee; or

(d)
Any combination of the foregoing methods of payment or another form of payment approved by the Committee.

5.
Restrictions on Exercise. This Option may not be exercised and no Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise, unless such exercise, the issuance of the Shares and the method of payment of the Exercise Price comply with all applicable laws. This Option shall be subject to the requirement that if, at any time, counsel to the Company shall determine that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares subject hereto upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental or regulatory body, or that the disclosure of non-public information or the satisfaction of any other condition is necessary as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance or purchase of Shares hereunder, this Option may not be exercised, in whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval, disclosure or satisfaction of such other condition shall have been effected or obtained on terms acceptable to the Committee. The Optionee agrees to cooperate with the Company to ensure compliance with any such condition; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Company to apply for, effect or obtain such listing, registration, qualification, approval, disclosure, or to satisfy such other condition.

The Optionee agrees to cooperate with the Company to ensure compliance with any such restrictions, conditions or limitations.

The Company or its Affiliate that engages the Optionee (if applicable) shall withhold taxes according to the requirements under applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including withholding taxes at source.

11.
Acknowledgment and Waiver.

11.1.

11.2.
In the event that a duly authorized legal body or other authorized forum, orders the Company or any Affiliate thereof to grant the Optionee the rights and privileges of a salaried employee, no income or gain which the Optionee may be credited with or which purports to be credited to the Optionee as a result of the grant or exercise of the Option, the issuance of the Shares, the sale thereof, or any other event or act hereunder, shall in any manner be taken into account in the calculation of the basis for the Optionee's entitlements from the Company or any Affiliate thereof or in the calculation of any social welfare right or other rights or benefits arising out of the engagement by the Company or any Affiliate thereof, including without limitation, social security, manager's insurance, educational fund, pension funds, severance pay, holiday pay, etc. In the event that the Company or any Affiliate thereof shall be required, pursuant to any law, to take into account for purposes of calculating any such benefits, any of the aforesaid elements of income or gain actually or theoretically credited to the Optionee, the Optionee shall promptly indemnify the Company and/or any Affiliate thereof against any expense caused to it in this regard, and any such amount shall be deemed a debt of the Optionee to the Company and/or any Affiliate thereof, which may be deducted or set off from any amounts payable to the Optionee.
