Stock Option Agreement Each grant of an Option under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement between the Optionee and the Company. Such Option shall be subject to all applicable terms of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms that are not inconsistent with the Plan. The Stock Option Agreement shall specify whether the Option is an ISO or an NSO. The provisions of the various Stock Option Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical. Options may be granted in consideration of a reduction in the Optionee’s other compensation.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of paragraph 3 of this Agreement, in the event the Company shall not be the surviving corporation in any merger, consolidation, or reorganization, or in the event of the acquisition by another corporation of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and if such surviving, continuing, successor or purchasing corporation does not agree to assume or replace the Option granted hereunder in accordance with paragraph 8 of this Agreement, or in the event of the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Option granted hereunder shall become immediately exercisable to the extent of all of the aggregate number of shares subject to this Option for a period commencing thirty (30) days immediately prior to and ending on the day immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, reorganization or acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of paragraph 3 of this Agreement, in the event of a Change of Control of the Company, the Option granted hereunder shall become immediately exercisable to the extent of all of the aggregate number of shares subject to this Option. In the event of a Change of Control, the Company shall notify the Optionee as soon as practicable of the Optionee's rights hereunder. For purposes of this subparagraph (c), a "Change of Control" shall have the meaning set forth in Section 2.7 of the Plan.
(d) The Option shall be exercisable in the manner set forth above, during the lifetime of the Optionee only by him or her and may not be exercisable by Optionee unless at the time of exercise he or she is a full-time employee or Consultant of the Company or of one of its subsidiary corporations and shall have been continuously so employed or engaged as a Consultant since the Granting Date, or, if the Optionee's employment and/or engagement with the Company or any of its subsidiary corporations shall have terminated the Option shall be exercisable only if exercised prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date of such termination or prior to ten (10) years after the Granting Date, whichever shall first occur, and (except as otherwise provided by subparagraph (b) and subparagraph (c) of this paragraph 3) only to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option prior to the date of such termination.
(e) The Option shall be exercisable after the death of the Optionee only if the Optionee shall at the time of his or her death have been an employee and/or a Consultant of the Company and shall have been continuously employed and/or engaged as a Consultant since the Granting Date, and then (i) only by or on behalf of such person or persons to whom the Optionee's rights under the Option shall have been passed by the Optionee's will or by the laws of descent and distribution, (ii) (except as otherwise provided by subparagraph (b) and subparagraph (c) of this paragraph 3) only to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise said Option prior to the date of his or her death, and (iii) only if said Option is exercised prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date of the Optionee's death or prior to ten (10) years after the Granting Date, whichever shall first occur.

Amendment of Option This Agreement and the terms of the Option may be amended by the Board or the Committee at any time (i) if the Board or the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that amendment is necessary or advisable due to any addition to or change in the Code or in the regulations issued thereunder, or any federal or state securities law or other law or regulation, which change occurs after the Date of Grant and by its terms applies to the Option; or (ii) other than in the circumstances described in clause (i), with the consent of WGNB and the Grantee.
