NOTE 10—STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">1999 Stock Option Plan

Our 1999 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) reserves 1.0 million shares of
our common stock for issuance upon exercise of options granted under the Plan. At December 31, 2008, 532,000 options were available for grant and reserved for issuance related to the Plan. The Plan provides for the grant of incentive
stock options and nonqualified stock options. Activity under the Plan in 2008 was as follows:

We estimate the fair value of stock
options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This valuation model takes into account the exercise price of the award, as well as a variety of significant assumptions. We believe that the valuation technique and the approach utilized to
develop the underlying assumptions are appropriate in calculating the fair values of our stock options. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by persons who receive equity awards.

Our options are fully vested upon the date of grant. Accordingly, we recognize the related stock-based compensation expense at that time. There were no
stock options granted during 2008 or 2007. Therefore, we did not have any stock-based compensation expense in either year. Shares to be issued upon the exercise of stock options will come from newly issued shares.
