If you choose to retain this Option Agreement beyond that date, then you accept the terms of these options and agree and consent to all amendments to the Plan and the Company’s 1995 Stock Option Plan and 2004 Incentive Stock Plan through the Grant Date as they apply to these options and any prior awards to you under such plans.

Exhibit 10.4

Exhibit A to Option Agreement

If you cease to be employed by the Company by reason of Retirement (as defined in the Company’s 2009 Incentive Stock Plan), then, effective immediately prior to the time of cessation of employment, options to purchase all shares that were not previously vested will become fully vested except where Cause (as defined below) existed prior to the time of cessation of employment. The exercisability and termination of such options following Retirement will remain subject to Section 7(g)(ii) of the Company’s 2009 Incentive Stock Plan.

“Cause” shall mean (1) your conviction of a felony or a plea by you of no contest to a felony, (2) willful misconduct on your part that is materially and demonstrably detrimental to the Company, (3) your willful refusal to perform requested duties consistent with your office, position or status with the Company (other than as a result of your physical or mental disability) or (4) other conduct or inaction that the Committee determines in its discretion constitutes Cause. With respect to clauses (2), (3) and (4) of this paragraph, Cause shall be determined by a majority of the Committee (as defined in the Company’s 2009 Incentive Stock Plan) at a meeting held after reasonable notice to you and including an opportunity for you and your counsel to be heard. The Committee shall not have the right to determine that Cause exists pursuant to clause (4) of this paragraph following the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Company’s 2009 Incentive Stock Plan). All determinations of the Committee hereunder shall be final.
