However, at the discretion of the Committee appointed to administer the Plan, the Grantee may pay the exercise price in part or in full by transferring Shares to the Company unrestricted Shares owned by the Grantee having a Fair Market Value on the day preceding the date of exercise equal to the cash amount for which such Shares are substituted. In addition, the Option may be exercised through a broker-dealer pursuant to such cashless exercise procedures that are, from time to time, deemed acceptable by the Committee in its sole discretion. 5.3 5.3. Upon receipt of notice of exercise and full payment for the Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised, the Company shall, subject to Section 17 of this Agreement and the Plan, take such action as may be necessary to effect the transfer to the Optionee Grantee of the number of Shares as to which such exercise was effective. 5.4 5.4.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the grant of the Option and the issuance of Shares will be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state, and foreign securities laws and with the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Shares may then be listed. The Option may not be exercised if the issuance of Shares upon exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state, or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Shares may then be listed. In addition, the Option may not be exercised unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act is at the time of exercise of the Option in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. THE GRANTEE IS CAUTIONED THAT THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED. ACCORDINGLY, THE GRANTEE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS VESTED. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares subject to the Option will relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority has not been obtained. As a condition to the exercise of the Option, the Company may require the Grantee to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect to such compliance as may be requested by the Company.

The Company makes no representation as to the tax consequences of any such delayed exercise. The Grantee should consult with his own tax advisor as to the tax consequences of any such delayed exercise. 5.6. The terms and provisions of any Employment Agreement that relates to or affects the Option are incorporated herein by reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5 or Section 6 or 7, in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Section 5 or Section 6 or 7 and the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement, if any, the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement shall be controlling.

Manner of Exercise and Payment. 5.1 6.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, the Option may be exercised by delivery of written notice to the Company, Company at its principal executive office. Such notice shall state that the Optionee is electing to exercise the Option and the number of Shares shares of Stock in respect of which the Option is being exercised and shall be signed by the person or persons exercising the Option. If requested by the Committee, such person or persons shall (i) deliver this Agreement to the Secretary of the Company who shall endorse thereon a notation of such exercise and (ii) provide satisfactory proof as to the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option. 5.2 6.2 The notice notice, of exercise described in Section 5.1 6.1 shall be accompanied by the full purchase price for the Shares shares of Stock in respect of which the Option is being exercisedexercised and by the Withholding Taxes, in cash, by check or or, in the discretion of the Committee, by transferring Shares shares of Stock to the Company held by the Optionee for more than six months and having a Fair Market Value on the day preceding the date day of exercise equal to the cash amount for which such Shares shares of Stock are substituted. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the parties agree that, to the extent permitted by law, and to the extent it would not, in the Company's judgment, result in any adverse legal, financial or tax implications for the Company, it is their intention that Optionee be able to effect a simultaneous exercise of this Option and sale of shares of Stock issuable upon such exercise in the over-the-counter market or any securities exchange on which the Stock is then listed, without Optionee bearing any commission or brokerage expense (a "concurrent transaction"). To this end, the Company and Optionee shall jointly agree upon a securities broker to be used in such transactions and further to adopt such additional procedures as may be necessary or advisable to accomplish concurrent transactions. In any concurrent transaction, the Company shall not be required to deliver a share certificate upon exercise of this Option unless it receives concurrent payment of the exercise price and Withholding Taxes. The Company shall bear all commission and brokerage expense associated with concurrent transactions, which shall be treated as an adjustment in the purchase price of shares subject to this Option. 5.3 6.3 Upon receipt of notice of exercise and full payment for the Shares shares of Stock in respect of which the Option is being exercisedexercised and of the Withholding Taxes, the Company shall, subject to Section 17 14 of the Plan, promptly take such action as may be necessary to effect the transfer to the Optionee of the number of Shares shares of Stock as to which such exercise was effective, including issuing and delivering such shares of Stock and entering the Optionee's name as a stockholder of record on the books of the Company provided, that full payment of the exercise price and Withholding Taxes may be made concurrently with such transfer and delivery in the case of a concurrent transaction provided for in Section 6.2. 5.4 6.4 The Optionee shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect respect, to any Shares shares of Stock subject to the Option option until (i) the Option shall have been exercised pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Optionee shall have paid the full purchase price for the number of Shares shares of Stock in respect of which the Option was exercised, (ii) the Company shall have issued and delivered the Shares shares of Stock to the Optionee, and (iii) the Optionee's name shall have been entered as a stockholder of record on the books of the Company, whereupon the Optionee shall have full voting and other ownership rights with respect to such Sharesshares. 6.5 If and when requested by Optionee, the Company shall file a registration statement (on Form S-8 or any successor form) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") covering the shares of Stock subject to this Option and shall use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and in addition shall register or qualify such shares under all applicable State securities laws (including in connection with a concurrent transaction). In addition, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to permit such shares to be registered in a "piggy back" registration in connection with a registration of shares of stock to be issued by the Company pursuant to Form X-0, X-0, X-0 or S-8 under the Act, on such customary terms and conditions as the Company shall reasonably specify. Upon the Optionee's written request, if he desires to sell shares of Stock that cannot be resold by him for any reason without registration under the Act, the Company will (i) promptly cause a registration statement to be filed under the Act covering the resale of such shares and use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective as promptly as practicable (the Company being under no obligation to effect more than one such registration) or (ii) repurchase such shares and, to the extent requested by the Optionee, the number of such vested shares subject to this Option from Optionee at their market value. The Optionee shall, in a manner customary for such a registration, cooperate with the Company, as reasonably requested by it, in connection with such registration and resale. The Company shall, by written notice to the Optionee within 10 days after receipt of such request, elect whether the Company will effect such registration or repurchase Optionee's shares of Stock. For this purpose, "market value" of (i) outstanding shares shall mean the product of the number of shares to be repurchased multiplied by the arithmetic average of the closing prices of the Stock, as reported by Nasdaq or the principal exchange on which the Stock is listed, during the five trading days immediately prior to the Optionee giving a written request to the Company to register the shares, and (ii) vested shares subject to this Option shall mean the value of the number of such vested shares, determined in accordance with the preceding clause (i) as if they were outstanding, reduced by the aggregate exercise price of the number of vested shares to be repurchased. To the extent the Company provides registration rights to effective officers pursuant to benefit or stock plans of the Company, Optionee will be provided with similar rights as are provided to other executive officers.
