WHEREAS, as a consequence of the Reverse Stock Split and pursuant to the term of the Plan, the total number of shares available for future distribution under the Plan and covered by each outstanding award under the Plan was automatically adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split, and such adjustment effectively reduced the aggregate number of shares that could be awarded under the Plan from 500,000,000 to 1,538,461 on a post Reverse Stock Split basis;

“Subject to the provisions of Section 11 below, the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan (as adjusted for the Company’s 325-to 1 reverse stock split effected on September 1, 2016) is 58,985,260 Shares, all of which may be issued pursuant to Non-Statutory Stock Options, Restricted Stock, or as Stock Grants.”

 

All other aspects of the Plan remain unchanged and are hereby confirmed.
