     WHEREAS, the Company adopted, effective as of December 7, 1999, the Wright Acquisition Holdings, Inc. 1999 Equity Incentive Plan (the “1999 EIP”), which allows for the grant of equity-based awards in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and other incentive compensation arrangements to employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries in order to provide them with incentives and align their interests with those of the stockholders of the Company;

     WHEREAS, Paragraph 15 of the Plan provides that the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may at any time, or from time to time, amend the Plan in whole or in part; and
     WHEREAS, it is now desired to amend the Plan to reflect amendments to the Plan that have been approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
     NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the authority granted by Plan to the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, the Plan is hereby amended, effective as of October 23, 2008, as follows:

Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(5)(iv)(B)(2), as elected by the Committee.
     2. Except to the extent amended by this amendment, the Plan shall remain in full force and effect.
