           3. Restrictions on Exercise:  The following additional provisions shall apply to the exercise of this Option:

(a)  Termination of Employment.  If the Grantee’s employment by the Company or any of its subsidiaries is terminated without cause for any reason, other than death only that portion of this Option exercisable at the time of such termination of employment may thereafter be exercised, and it may not be exercised more than one year after such
 
 
 
 

 
 
 termination nor after the Expiration Date of this Option, whichever date is sooner. In all other respects, this Option shall terminate upon such termination of employment.

  (b)  Death of Grantee.  If the Grantee shall die during the term of this Option, the Grantee’s legal representative or representatives, or the person or persons entitled to do so under the Grantee’s last will and testament or under applicable intestate laws, shall have the right to exercise this Option, but only for the number of shares as to which the Grantee was entitled to exercise this Option in accordance with Section 2 hereof on the date of her death, and such right shall expire and this Option shall terminate 15 months after the date of the Grantee’s death or on the Expiration Date of this Option, whichever date is sooner. In all other respects, this Option shall terminate upon such death.

(c) Continuity of Employment.  This Option shall not be exercisable by the Grantee in any part unless at all times beginning with the date of grant and ending no more than three months prior to the date of exercise, the Grantee has, except for military service leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence (such as temporary employment by the United States Government) been in the continuous service of the Company, except that such period of three months shall be one (1) year following any termination of the Grantee’s employment by reason of her permanent and total disability.

           (d) Should (i) the Grantee’s Service be terminated for misconduct (including, but not limited to, any act of dishonesty, willful misconduct, fraud or embezzlement) or (ii) the Grantee make any unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information or trade secrets of the Company or its Parent or Subsidiary, then in any such event all outstanding Options held by the Grantee under this Plan shall terminate immediately and cease to be exercisable.

4.  Non-Transferable.  The Grantee may not transfer this Option except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Option shall not be otherwise transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and shall be exercisable during the Grantee’s lifetime only by the Grantee or her guardian or legal representative.

5. Adjustments and Corporate Reorganization.  Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Option, and the number of Shares which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Options have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of any Option, as well as the price per Share covered by each such outstanding Option, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Committee, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive.  Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an Option.


In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Option will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Committee.  The Committee may, in the exercise of its sole discretion in such instances, declare that any Option shall terminate as of a date fixed by the Committee and
 
 
 
2

 
 
give each Grantee the right to exercise her Option as to all or any part of the Option, including Shares as to which the Option would not otherwise be exercisable.  In the event of the proposed sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the merger of the Company with or into another corporation in a transaction in which the Company is not the survivor, the Option shall be assumed or an equivalent option shall be substituted by such successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation, unless the Committee determines, in the exercise of its sole discretion and in lieu of such assumption or substitution, that the Grantee shall have the right to exercise the Option as to all of the optioned stock, including shares as to which the Option would not otherwise be exercisable.  If the Committee makes an Option fully exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of such a merger or sale of assets, the Committee shall notify the Grantee that the Option shall be fully exercisable for a period of 30 days from the date of such notice, and the Option will terminate upon the expiration of such period.

6.  Exercise, Payment For and Delivery of Stock: This Option may be exercised by the Grantee or other person then entitled to exercise it by giving four business days’ written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares to be purchased and the total purchase price. The exercise price shall become immediately due upon exercise of the Option and, subject to the instrument evidencing the grant, shall be payable in one of the following alternative forms specified below:

(a)           full payment in cash or check drawn to the Company’s order;

(b)           full payment in shares of Common Stock held for at least six (6) months and valued at fair market value on the Exercise Date (as such term is defined below);

(c)           full payment through a combination of shares of Common Stock held for at least six (6) months and valued at fair market value on the Exercise Date and cash or check; or

(d)           full payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure provided that sale of the optioned stock is permitted as a result of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and compliance with all applicable securities laws, pursuant to which the Grantee (i) shall provide irrevocable written instructions to a Company-designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate option price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable Federal and State income taxes required to be withheld by the Company in connection with such purchase and (ii) shall provide written directives to the Company to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction.

For purposes of this section 6, the Exercise Date shall be the date on which written notice of the option exercise is delivered to the Company.  Except to the extent the sale and remittance procedure is utilized in connection with the exercise of the Option, payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must accompany such notice.


The fair market value per share of Common Stock on any relevant date shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions:
 
 
 
3

 
 

 (i)           If the Common Stock is not at the time listed or admitted to trading on any national stock exchange but is traded on the NASDAQ National Market, the fair market value shall be the closing selling price per share of Common Stock on the date in question, as such price is reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers on the NASDAQ National Market or any successor system.  If there is no reported closing selling price for the Common Stock on the date in question, then the closing selling price on the last preceding date for which such quotation exists shall be determinative of fair market value.

 (ii)           If the Common Stock is at the time listed or admitted to trading on any national stock exchange, then the fair market value shall be the closing selling price per share of Common Stock on the date in question on the stock exchange determined by the Committee to be the primary market for the Common Stock, as such price is officially quoted in the composite tape of transactions on such exchange.  If there is no reported sale of Common Stock on such exchange on the date in question, then the fair market value shall be the closing selling price on the exchange on the last preceding date for which such quotation exists.

 (iii)           If the Common Stock is quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market, or any similar system of automated dissemination of quotations of securities process in common use, the fair market value shall be the mean between the closing bid and asked quotations for the Common Stock on such date.

 (iv)           If neither clause (i), (ii) or (iii) is applicable, then the fair market value shall be the mean between the closing bid and asked quotations for the Common Stock as reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc., if at least two securities dealers have inserted both bid and asked quotations for Common Stock on at least five of the ten preceding business days.

7.  Rights in Shares Before Issuance and Delivery.  No person shall be entitled to the privileges of stock ownership in respect of any shares issuable upon exercise of this Option, unless and until such shares have been issued to such person as fully paid shares.

8.  Requirements of Law and of Stock Exchanges. By accepting this Option, the Grantee represents and agrees for himself and her transferees by will or the laws of descent and distribution that, unless a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 is in effect as to shares purchased upon any exercise of this Option, (i) any and all shares so purchased shall be acquired for her personal account and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution, and (ii) each notice of the exercise of any portion of this Option shall be accompanied by a representation and warranty in writing, signed by the person entitled to exercise the same, that the shares are being so acquired in good faith for her personal account and not with view to or for sale in connection with any distribution.

No certificate or certificates for shares of stock purchased upon exercise of this Option shall be issued and delivered unless and until, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such securities may be issued and delivered without causing the Company to be in violation of or incur liability under any federal, state or other securities law, any requirement of any securities exchange listing agreement to which the Company may be a party, or any other requirement of law or of any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Company.

9.  Stock Option Plan.  This Option is subject to, and the Company and the Grantee agree to be bound by, all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, as the same shall have been amended from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, provided that no such amendment shall deprive the Grantee, without her consent, of this Option or any of her

Pursuant to the Plan, the Committee is vested with final authority to interpret and construe the Plan and this Option, and is authorized to adopt rules and regulations for carrying out the Plan. A copy of the Plan in its present form is available for inspection during business hours by the Grantee or other persons entitled to exercise this Option at the Company’s principal office.  The Plan, as amended from time to time, is hereby incorporated by reference.
