Exercise of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights.  Any Option or Stock Appreciation Right granted hereunder will be exercisable as set forth in Section 5 hereof; provided, however, that no Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable until shareholder approval of the Plan in accordance with Section 25 hereof has been obtained.  An Option or Stock Appreciation Right may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

An Option or Stock Appreciation Right will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) notice of exercise (in such form as the Administrator specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option or Stock Appreciation Right is exercised (together with applicable tax withholdings).  Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized under the Plan and Applicable Law.  Shares issued upon exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right will be issued in the name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse.  Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder will exist with respect to the Shares subject to an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable.  The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable is exercised.  No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued.

Exercising an Option or Stock Appreciation Right in any manner will decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, by the number of Shares as to which the Option or Stock Appreciation Right is exercised.
