4.             EXERCISE PROCEDURES

a.             The Optionee may exercise this option in whole or in part only with respect to any shares for which the right to exercise shall have accrued pursuant to paragraph 2 and only so long as paragraph 3 does not prohibit such exercise.

b.             This option may be exercised by delivering a written notice of option exercise to the Company’s Human Resources Department at Manitowoc, Wisconsin, accompanied by payment of the purchase price and such additional amount (if any) determined by the Human Resources Department as necessary to satisfy the Company’s tax withholding obligations, and such other documents or representations as the Company may reasonably request to comply with securities, tax or other laws then applicable to the exercise of the option.  Delivery may be made in person, by nationally-recognized delivery service that guarantees overnight delivery, or by facsimile. A notice of option exercise that is received by the Human Resources Department after 11:59 P.M. (Central Time) on the date of termination (as provided in paragraph 3) shall be null and void.

c.             No Option Shares shall be issued until full payment of the purchase price therefor has been made.  The Optionee may pay the purchase price in one or more of the following forms:

i.              a check payable to the order of the Company for the purchase price of the shares being purchased; or

ii.             delivery of shares of Common Stock (including by attestation) that the Optionee has owned for at least six (6) months and that have a Fair Market Value (determined on the date of delivery) equal to the purchase price of the shares being purchased; or

iii.            delivery (including by facsimile) to the Human Resources Department of the Company at Manitowoc, Wisconsin, of an executed irrevocable option exercise form together with irrevocable instructions, in a form acceptable to the Company, to a broker-dealer to sell or margin a sufficient portion of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this option and deliver the sale or margin loan proceeds directly to the Company to pay for the exercise price.

d.             The Optionee may satisfy any tax withholding obligation of the Company arising from the exercise of this option, in whole or in part, by paying such tax obligation in cash or by check made payable to the Company, or by electing to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the amount required to be withheld, subject to such rules as the Committee may adopt.  In any event, the Company reserves the right to withhold from any compensation otherwise payable to the Optionee such amount as the Company determines is necessary

to satisfy the Company’s tax withholding obligations arising from the exercise of this option.

5.             DEFINITIONS

a.             “Cause” means termination of employment as a result of (i) the failure of the Optionee to perform or observe any of the material terms or provisions of any written employment agreement between the Optionee and the Company or its subsidiaries or, if no written agreement exists, the gross dereliction of the Optionee’s duties with respect to the Company; (ii) the failure of the Optionee to comply fully with the lawful directives of the Board of Directors of the Company or its subsidiaries, as applicable, or the officers or supervisory employees to whom the Optionee is reporting; (iii) the Optionee’s dishonesty, misconduct, misappropriation of funds, or disloyalty or disparagement of the Company, any of its subsidiaries, or its management or employees; (iv) or (v) other proper cause determined in good faith by the Committee.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Optionee is subject to a written agreement with the Company or its subsidiaries that contains a definition of “Cause” that is different than the definition provided herein, the definition of “Cause” in such other agreement shall apply in lieu of the definition provided herein.

c.             Following any transfer (whether voluntarily or pursuant to will or the law of descent and distribution) under this paragraph 7, this option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to such transfer, provided that for purposes of this Agreement, the term “Optionee” as used in paragraphs 6, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 shall be deemed to refer to the transferee. The Company disclaims any obligation to provide notice to any person who has the right to exercise this option of circumstances triggering termination of this option.
