Method of Exercise of This Option. To the extent vested, this Option may be exercised by giving written notice to the Company, as hereinafter provided, specifying the number of Option Shares to be purchased. The notice of exercise of this Option shall be in the form prescribed by the Committee and directed to the address set forth in Section 11 below. The date of exercise is the date on which such notice is received by the Company. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Option Shares to be purchased upon such exercise. Payment shall be made (i) by certified or bank check or such other instrument as the Company may accept, (ii) by tendering previously acquired Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the aggregate Exercise Price, (iii) by instructing the Company to withhold a number of Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value (based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise) equal to the product of (A) the Exercise Price and (B) the number of Option Shares in respect of which this Option shall have been exercised, or (iv) by a combination of (i) and (ii) and (iii). Promptly after such payment, subject to Section 4 below, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Optionee or other person exercising this Option a certificate or certificates representing the Shares so purchased, registered in the name of the Optionee (or such other person), or, upon request, in the name of the Optionee (or such other person) and in the name of another in such form of joint ownership as requested by the Optionee (or such other person) pursuant to applicable state law. In lieu of issuing a certificate or certificates representing the Shares so purchased, the Company may cause such Shares to be credited to a book entry account maintained by the Company (or its transfer agent or other designee) for the benefit of the Optionee or other person exercising this Option, including any joint owner as provided in the immediately preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, a fractional Share shall not be issuable hereunder, and when any provision hereof may entitle the Optionee to a fractional share, such fraction shall (unless the Committee determines otherwise) be disregarded.

(b) One-third (1/3) of the Shares hereby optioned at any time two years from the date hereof, and
(c) the balance of the Shares hereby optioned at any time after three (3) years from the date hereof, provided that 100 Shares, or the total number of Shares remaining unpurchased hereunder, if less than 100 Shares, is the minimum number which may be purchased hereunder at any one time. This Option shall not be exercisable prior to the expiration of one year from the date of grant, except as otherwise specified in the Plan. All purchases hereunder must be completed within the time periods prescribed herein for the exercise thereof.
