Stock Option Grant

In 2007, the directors received a stock option award on the first business day of the fiscal year. The number of options granted was calculated by dividing $50,000 by the average of the high and low prices of a share of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant. The per-share exercise price of each stock option granted was equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. The options fully vest one year following the date of grant. Vested options may be exercised for ten years from the date of grant; however, no option may be exercised more than one year following the termination of a person’s service as a director.

In fiscal 2008, the directors received a grant of 3,704 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) instead of a stock option grant. The number of RSUs granted was calculated by dividing $50,000 by the closing price of a share of our stock on the date of grant. The RSUs will vest in February 2009. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock on the vesting date.
