If the Optionee exercises the Incentive Options within 10 calendar days from the date of the Public Announcement, the Optionee shall be deemed a record holder of the shares underlying the Incentive Options as of the record date of the Change of Control.

7. 激勵期權的狀態。 These Incentive Options are intended to qualify as 「incentive stock options」 under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the 「Code」), but the Company does not represent or warrant that these Incentive Options qualify as such. The Optionee should consult with his or her own tax advisors regarding the tax effects of these Incentive Options and the requirements necessary to obtain favorable income tax treatment under Section 422 of the Code, including, but not limited to, holding period requirements. To the extent any portion of these Incentive Options does not so qualify as an 「incentive stock option,」 such portion shall be deemed to be a non-qualified stock option. If the Optionee intends to dispose or does dispose (whether by sale, gift, transfer or otherwise) of any these Incentive Options within the one-year period beginning on the date after the transfer of such shares to him or her, or within the two-year period beginning on the day after the grant of these Incentive Options, he or she will so notify the Company within 30 days after such disposition.

8. 行使方法. The Incentive Options shall be exercisable by a written notice which shall:

(d) 需附上全額支付行使價格的證明，向公司支付等於行使價格乘以購買的基礎股票數量的金額，支付方式可以是現金、電匯或由銀行出具的認證支票，支付給公司的指定賬戶，或根據相關規定無現金行使。 附圖 1；並且

(e) 需附上公司自行判斷爲遵守任何聯邦、州或地方稅務和就業稅目的預扣要求所需的任何金額的支付。如果選項持有人未能及時支付上述金額，公司可以：(i) 拒絕允許行使激勵期權，或(ii) 從選項持有人應得的薪酬和其他應付款項中扣除所需的支付金額。該預扣可以由公司自行決定以激勵期權的基礎股票進行。

(f) 行使激勵期權的普通股股票證書應登記在行使激勵期權的個人或多個人的名下。

9.反稀釋條款。 在此授予的激勵期權將享有計劃中規定的反稀釋權利。

10. 成爲記錄持有人的必要性。 無論是期權持有人、期權持有人的遺產，還是任何受讓人，均不得在成爲該股份的記錄持有者之前，享有與激勵期權所涉及的股份相關的股東權利。如果記錄日期在該人成爲該股份記錄持有者之前，則不應向該持有者提供現金分紅或現金分配，無論是普通分紅還是非常規分紅。

11. 保留終止關係的權利。 本協議中的任何內容均不限制公司在任何時候有或沒有理由終止期權持有人的關係。公司終止期權持有人關係的原因無論是什麼，均應按照本協議的規定產生相應的結果。

12. 激勵期權的行使條件爲了使公司遵守1933年證券法（「證券法」）及相關州法律，公司可能要求期權持有人、期權持有人的遺產或任何受讓人在行使激勵期權時，提供公司滿意的書面保證，證明激勵期權所涉及的股份是爲了其個人賬戶而購入，僅用於投資，沒有轉讓意圖，並且任何後續的股份轉售要麼應根據已經生效且當前的證券法和適用州法的註冊聲明進行，要麼根據證券法和適用州法的註冊豁免進行。

激勵期權受到以下要求的限制：如果董事會在其自由裁量權下判斷，激勵期權下普通股的上市、註冊或資格認證在任何證券交易所或根據任何州或聯邦法律，或者任何政府監管機構的同意或批准，是激勵期權所涉及的股份發行或購買的條件，則在未實現該上市、註冊、資格認證、同意或批准之前，激勵期權不得全部或部分行使。

13.轉讓。 除非公司收到書面通知以及遺囑執行信或董事會認爲必要的其他證據以證明遺產的權威和受讓人或受讓人接受激勵期權的條款和條件，否則任何受讓人通過遺囑或繼承和分配法律轉讓激勵期權的行爲對公司無效。

附圖 1

無現金行使. 受益人可以通過交出在行使激勵期權時獲得的普通股股份數量來行使激勵期權，這些股份的總公平市場價值（如下定義）等於要行使的期權數量乘以行使價格，如以下段落所述（「無現金行使」）。

如果受益人選擇進行無現金行使，公司應向受益人交付代表普通股股份數量的證書，使用以下公式計算：

X =

Y(A-B)

       A

地點：

X = 將要發放給期權持有人的普通股票數量；

Y = 期權持有人在計算時行使的激勵期權部分（以普通股票的數量計算）；

A = 一股普通股票的公平市場價值（如下定義）；

和

B = 行使價格（已調整至上述計算日期）。

對於激勵期權，公允市場價值應指： (i) 如果該證券的主要交易市場是國家證券交易所、OTCQX或OTCQB（或當時使用的類似系統），則在該主要市場上，在到期日前五個交易日內最後五個報告銷售價格的平均值；或者 (ii) 如果 (i) 不適用，並且如果主要交易市場報告了普通股的買盤和賣盤價格，則在到期日前一天的交易日內所報告的高買盤和低賣盤價格的平均值。儘管如此，如果在相關日期沒有最後報告的銷售價格或買盤和賣盤價格，則應以截至該日期的最新日期作爲參考，進行判斷；只要該證券在相關日之前的30天內未在交易所或場外市場進行交易，則公允市場價值應由公司董事會的正式決議以誠信方式判斷並反映。
