in full of the exercise price of the Shares then being acquired and any applicable income or
employment taxes, and (iii) execution of an Investment Representation Statement substantially in
the form reasonably required by the Company if the Company’s stock has not been registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, at the time of the exercise. The Company shall have the
right to delay the issue or delivery of any shares to be delivered hereunder until (i) the
completion of such registration or qualification of the Shares under federal, state or foreign law,
ruling or regulation as the Company shall deem to be necessary or advisable, and (ii) receipt from
the Participant of such documents and information as the Company may deem necessary or
appropriate in connection with such registration or qualification or the issuance of shares
hereunder.
4. Expiration Date. Upon a Change of Control of the Company, any portion of this
Option that would be a parachute payment shall expire on the date that is 90 days after the date of
the Change of Control unless you agree to submit the relevant portion of the Option for approval by
more than 75% of the Company’s stockholders (determined as required by the relevant guidelines
under Section 280G of the Code). The italicized words in the preceding sentence shall have the
same meaning as in the relevant guidelines under Section 280G of the Code. Upon your death or
Disability or other termination of employment in accordance with and upon the terms and conditions
as set forth in the Plan. In all other events, and notwithstanding anything herein contained to
the contrary, this Option shall expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of the award of the
Option.
5. Resale Limitations. The Company’s Common Stock issued upon the exercise of an
Option are deemed to be restricted securities as defined in Section 144 of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Act”). Resales of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of an
Option must be in compliance with the registration requirements of the Act or an exemption from
those requirements.
6. Antidilution Adjustments. In the event of any merger, reorganization,
consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, issuance or repurchase of stock or
securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of the Company’s common stock, grants of
options, warrants or rights to purchase the Common Stock (other than under the Plan), extraordinary
distribution with respect to the common stock, or other change in corporate structure affecting the
common stock after the date of this Award Agreement, then the Committee may (i) make such
substitutions or adjustments in the number of shares and/or the exercise price specified in
paragraph 1 above, (ii) make such other substitutions or adjustments in the consideration
receivable by the Company upon exercise of the Option, or (iii) take such other action as the
Committee may determine to be appropriate in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the
number of shares subject to the Option shall always be a whole number. This Award Agreement has
taken into account and made appropriate adjustments for the merger of Planet Beach Franchising
Corporation, a Nevada corporation, into the Company.
7. Plan and Award Amendments. You agree that the Plan may be amended at any time,
one or more times, with the written approval of the Company and holders of two-thirds of the
Options then outstanding under the Plan, whether or not fully vested and that any such amendment
shall be binding upon you, your successors and assigns whether or not you have approved the
amendment and whether or not it supersedes any contrary provisions of this Agreement (other than
