The written notice must be signed by the Optionee and is not effective until it is delivered in person or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to the President or CEO of the Company

prior to the termination of the Option as set forth in paragraph 6 below, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price for the number of shares being purchased.

(c) Form of Payment of Exercise Price. Such payment shall be made in cash, by check, cash equivalent, or pursuant to a “cashless exercise” in which the appropriate number of shares being purchased are retained by the Company in satisfaction of payment of such obligations.

(d) Withholding.

(e) Certificate Registration. The certificate or certificates for the shares as to which the Option shall be exercised shall be registered in the name of the Optionee, or, if applicable. the heirs of the Optionee and promptly delivered to such shareholder following satisfaction of the various requirements hereunder.

The issuance of the shares upon exercise of the Option shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. The Option may not be exercised if the issuance of shares upon such exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations. In addition, the Option may not be exercised unless (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (ii) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The Optionee is cautioned that the Option may not be exercisable unless the foregoing conditions are satisfied. Accordingly, the Optionee may not be able to exercise the Option when desired even though the Option is vested. Questions concerning this restriction should be directed to the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company. As a condition to the exercise of the Option, the Company may require the Optionee to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.

Following the death of the Optionee, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable by the Optionee on the date of death, may be exercised by the Optionee’s legal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Optionee’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution.

(iii) Other Termination. If the Optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company for any reason, except death, disability within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code or “termination for cause,” as defined in paragraph 7(a)(i) above, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable by the Optionee on the date on which the Optionee ceased to be an employee, may be exercised by the Optionee within ninety (90) days after the date on which the Optionee’s employment terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Termination Date.

The repurchase price shall be the fair market value of such shares as of the repurchase date as determined by the Company in good faith at its discretion and shall be paid at its option in cash in whole or in part, with up to one-half of the repurchase price being payable in the

form of an unsecured promissory note which shall be due and payable in full, with interest at a rate equal to the applicable federal rate as determined under section 1274 of the Internal Revenue Code, no later than one year after the date on which the note is issued. This right shall be in addition to the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement.

8. Vesting upon Ownership Change. Qualified Public Offering. In the event of an Ownership Change or a Qualified Public Offering, 100% of the Option shall become fully vested (to the extent it is neither assumed or substituted for in connection with the Ownership Change as provided in Section 13 of the Plan). A “Qualified Public Offering” shall have the same meaning as it is defined in the Shareholders Agreement. An “Ownership Change” shall be deemed to have occurred upon the occurrence of any of the following with respect to the Company:

(a) the direct or indirect sale or exchange by the shareholders of the Company of all or substantially all of the stock of the Company where shareholders of the Company before such sale or exchange do not retain, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the beneficial interest in the voting stock of the Company after such sale or exchange;

Appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number, exercise price and class of shares of stock subject to the Option in the event of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, or like change in the capital structure of the Company. In the event a majority of the shares which are of the same class as the shares that are subject to the Option are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become shares of another corporation (the “New Shares”), the Company may unilaterally amend the Option to provide that the Option is exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the number of shares and the exercise price shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner.

10. Rights as a Shareholder or Employee. The Optionee shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares covered by the Option until the date of the issuance of a certificate or certificates for the shares for which the Option has been exercised. No adjustment shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such certificate or certificates are issued, except as provided in paragraph 9 above. Nothing in the Option shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Company to terminate the Optionee’s employment at any time.

11. Shareholders Agreement. The Optionee may not exercise the Option, or any part thereof, unless such Optionee has first executed and delivered to the Company the Shareholders Agreement agreeing to be bound by the terms thereof, provided, however, that this provision shall not apply in the event the Shareholders Agreement is no longer in effect or is amended to eliminate the requirement that an option holder must become bound by such agreement.

12. Stock Dividends Subject to Option Agreement. If, from time to time, there is any stock dividend, stock split or other change in the character or amount of any of the outstanding stock of the corporation the stock of which is subject to the provisions of this Option Agreement, then in such event any and all new substituted or additional securities to which the Optionee is entitled by reason of the Optionee’s ownership of the shares acquired upon exercise of the Option shall be immediately subject to the Right to Repurchase with the same force and effect as the shares subject to the Right to Repurchase immediately before such event.
