(1)             In addition, we provide reimbursement to directors for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors and other Company business.

Upon re-election at our annual meetings of stockholders, each non-employee director shall automatically be granted an option to purchase 12,000 shares of our common stock, with the exception of Mr. Daverman who shall be granted an option to purchase 18,000 shares of our common stock, at an exercise price per share equal to the then current fair market value per share. All such options shall become exercisable in four equal annual installments commencing one year after the date of grant, provided that the optionee then remains a director.

Each new non-employee director is automatically granted an option to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price per share equal to the then current fair market value per share. All such options shall become exercisable in five equal annual installments commencing one year after the date of grant, provided that the optionee then remains a director. The right to exercise annual installments of options will be reduced proportionately based on the optionee’s actual attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors if the optionee fails to attend at least 75% of the meetings of the Board of Directors held in any calendar year.
