(b) Legends. The Grantee acknowledges that, unless a registration statement shall then be in effect covering the resale of the Exercise Shares, any certificate representing the Exercise Shares shall bear the following legend:

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF (EACH, A “TRANSFER”) UNLESS AND UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS SUCH TRANSFER IS (A) EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION OR IS OTHERWISE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND SUCH LAWS IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE SHAREHOLDER, WHICH COUNSEL MUST BE, AND THE FORM AND SUBSTANCE OF WHICH OPINION ARE, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER AND (B) IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE COMPANY’S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND ANY AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS THERETO.”

(c) Ability to bear risk.

(d) Restriction on sale upon Public Offering. The Grantee agrees that, in the event the Company files a registration statement in connection with a Public Offering, the Grantee will not, without the prior written consent of the Company, effect any public sale or distribution of any of the Exercise Shares (other than as part of such Public Offering), including but not limited to, pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities Act, for the duration (not to exceed 20 days prior to and the 180 days after the effective date of such registration statement) specified by and to the extent requested by the Company and an underwriter of

9. Change in capital structure; effect of excess dilution; most favored nations provision.

(a) The Committee shall equitably adjust the number and type of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the options evidenced hereby, as well as the Option Price, to reflect any increase or decrease in the number or change in the character of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock-split, reverse stock-split, stock dividend, extraordinary dividend (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion) whether such dividend is payable in cash, other property or a combination of both, combination, recapitalization or reclassification of the shares of Common Stock, merger, consolidation, change in organization form, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt or payment of consideration by the Company.

- 10 -

options evidenced hereby such alternative consideration (including cash or securities of any surviving entity) as it may in good faith determine to be equitable under the circumstances and may require in connection therewith the surrender of the option evidenced hereby. In any case, such substitution of cash or securities shall not require the consent of the Grantee. Except as expressly provided herein, if the Company issues for consideration shares of equity securities of any class or securities convertible into shares of equity securities of any class, the issuance shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be required to be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of options evidenced hereby.

(b) In the event that the Company, at any time prior to the earlier of the closing of a Public Offering and December 31, 2016, adopts one or more equity compensation plans for directors, officers or employees of the Company that, when combined with options granted to Xxxxx Xxxx and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx (without double counting), provides for the grant of options or awards covering more than 176,471 shares of Common Stock or their equivalent, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the options evidenced hereby shall be increased by a factor equal to the ratio of:

(B) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to option agreements between the Company and Xxxxx Xxxx and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, and

the Option Price shall be decreased by a factor that is the reciprocal of the foregoing factor.

(c) In the event that the Company, at any time prior to the earlier of the closing of a Public Offering and December 31, 2016, adopts a stock option plan for employees of the Company that provides for the grant of options to purchase shares of Common Stock on terms more favorable to the holders of such options than the terms of this agreement are to the Grantee (other than Option Price, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of options evidenced hereby, the Grant Date or the Stated Expiration Date), the Company shall offer to amend this agreement to change the terms of this agreement so as to make the terms of this agreement correspond to the terms of options granted under such stock option plan.

- 11 -

10. Relationship to other benefits. Neither the grant of the options evidenced hereby nor any value received by the Grantee pursuant to this agreement shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

11. No shareholder rights. Neither the Grantee nor any transferee or beneficiary of the Grantee shall have any rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of options evidenced hereby until the effective date (as set forth in Section 6(d) hereof) of the exercise by the Grantee or such transferee, or beneficiary in accordance with the terms of this agreement. Prior to such effective date, the Grantee shall not have the right to vote or to receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of options evidenced hereby.
