otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as in the Plan.
The Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its

on the terms set forth therein as an inducement to enter into or remain in the employment of the
Company or one of its Affiliates, to enable the Optionee to participate in the long-term growth and
financial success of the Company and as an increased incentive to contribute to the Company’s
future success and prosperity.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties
hereto agree as follows:
1. Grant of the Option. The Company hereby grants to the Optionee the right and
option to purchase, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, [___] Shares (the
“Option”). The purchase price of the Shares subject to this Option shall be $[___] per Share (the
“Exercise Price”). The Option is not intended to be treated as an option that complies with
Section 422 of the Code or any successor provision thereto.
2. Option Term. The term of the Option shall begin immediately and continue until the
tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant, subject to earlier termination as hereinafter provided.
(a) If the Optionee ceases to be an officer or employee of the Company or any Affiliate by
reason of the Optionee’s discharge for cause, all rights of the Optionee to exercise the Option
shall terminate, lapse and be forfeited immediately at the time of the Optionee’s discharge for
cause.
(b) If the Optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company or any Affiliate by reason of
death, the personal representatives, heirs, legatees or distributees of the
Optionee, as appropriate, shall have the right to exercise the Option up to the earlier of (i)
six months from the Optionee’s death or (ii) the remaining term of the Option.
(c) If the Optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company or any Affiliate by reason of the
Optionee’s resignation, Retirement, Disability or for any reason other than the Optionee’s death or
discharge for cause, all rights of the Optionee to exercise the Option shall terminate, lapse, and
be forfeited upon the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the Optionee’s termination of
employment by reason of such employee’s resignation, Retirement, Disability or such other reason or
(ii) the remaining term of the Option, except that in case the Optionee shall die within six months
after the date of termination of employment by reason of such employee’s resignation, Retirement,
Disability or such other reason, the personal representatives, heirs, legatees or distributees of
the Optionee, as appropriate, shall have the right up to an additional three months from the date
of the Optionee’s death to exercise the Option.

below in paragraphs (b), (c), (d) or (e) below, no additional Options shall vest after:
(i) termination of Optionee’s employment with the Company or any Affiliate for any
reason (including voluntary and involuntary discharge, Disability or Retirement), in which
case the Optionee shall, at the time of termination, forfeit all right, title and interest
in and to any Options not then vested;
(ii) an Optionee working full-time at the Date of Grant reduces his/her scheduled

appropriate, shall become fully vested in the Option effective on the date of the Optionee’s death
and shall have the immediate right to exercise the Option to the extent not previously exercised.
(c) In the event of the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Option shall terminate

notice of the date so fixed shall be given to the Optionee and the Optionee shall be fully vested
in and shall have the right during such period to exercise the Option even though the Option would

unexercised portion of the Option shall terminate and be of no further effect.
(d) In the event of a Reorganization:
(1) If there is no plan or agreement respecting the Reorganization or if such plan or
agreement does not specifically provide for the change, conversion or exchange of the
Shares under the unexercised portion of the Option for other securities, then the
provisions of the above paragraph (c) of this Section 3 shall apply as if the Company had
dissolved or been liquidated on the effective date of the Reorganization; or
(2) If there is a plan or agreement respecting the Reorganization and if such plan or
agreement specifically provides for the change, conversion or exchange of the Shares under
the unexercised portion of the Option for securities of another corporation, then the Board
shall adjust the Shares under the unexercised portion of the Option in a manner not
inconsistent with the provisions of such plan or agreement for the adjustment, change,
conversion or exchange of such Shares and the Option.
(e) In the event of a Change in Control of the Company, the Option shall become fully vested
and immediately exercisable.
4. Exercise of the Option.
(a) This Option may be exercised as to Shares only in amounts and at intervals of time
specified in this Agreement. Each exercise of the Option, or any part thereof, shall be evidenced
by a notice in writing to the Company. The Exercise Price of the Shares as to which the Option
shall be exercised shall be paid in full at the time of exercise, and may be paid to the Company
either:
(1) in cash (including check, bank draft or money order); or
(2) by the delivery of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate
Exercise Price; provided, however, that such Shares, if acquired by the
3
exercise of an Option shall have been owned by the Optionee for more than six months
prior to exercise; or
(3) by a combination of cash and Shares as described above; or
(4) by arrangement with a broker acceptable to the Committee in which payment of the
Exercise Price is made pursuant to an irrevocable direction from the Optionee to the broker
to deliver the Company proceeds from the sale of the option Shares in an amount equal to
the exercise price of the Shares.
(b) The amount, as determined by the Committee, of any federal, state or local tax required to
be withheld by the Company due to the exercise of the Option granted hereunder shall be satisfied
either (i) by payment by the Optionee to the Company of the amount of such withholding obligation
in cash or (ii) through either the retention by the Company of a number of shares out of the Shares
being acquired through the exercise of the Option granted hereunder or the delivery of already
owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of the withholding obligation. The
cash payment or the amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares so withheld, as the case
may be, shall be remitted by the Company to the appropriate taxing authorities.
(c) The Optionee shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect
to the Shares covered by this Agreement except to the extent that one or more certificates of such
Shares shall have been delivered to the Optionee, or the Optionee has been determined to be a
stockholder of record by the Company’s Transfer Agent, upon due exercise of the Option granted
hereunder.
5. No Right to Continued Employment. This Agreement shall not confer on the Optionee
any right to continue serving as an employee of the Company nor shall this Agreement limit in any
way the Company’s right to terminate or change the terms of the Optionee’s employment.
6. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization or Reorganization. The number of Shares
subject to the Option shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(a) Subject to any required action by stockholders, the number of Shares subject to the option
granted hereunder, and the Exercise Price, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or
decrease in the number of issued Shares of the Company resulting from a subdivision or
consolidation of Shares or the payment of a stock dividend (but only in Shares) or any other
increase or decrease in the number of Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the
Company.
(b) Subject to any required action by stockholders, if the Company shall be the surviving
corporation in any Reorganization, merger or consolidation, the Option granted hereunder shall
pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of the number of Shares subject to the
Option granted hereunder would have been entitled, and if a plan or agreement reflecting any such
event is in effect that specifically provides for the change,
4
conversion or exchange of Shares, then any adjustment to Shares subject to the Option granted
hereunder shall not be inconsistent with the terms of any such plan or agreement.
(c) In the event of a change in the Shares of the Company as presently constituted, which is
limited to a change of par value into the same number of Shares with a different par value or
without par value, the Shares resulting from any such change shall be deemed to be the Shares
within the meaning of the Plan.
To the extent that the foregoing adjustments relate to stock or securities of the Company,
such adjustments shall be made by the Board, whose determination shall be final, binding and
conclusive.
Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the Optionee shall have no rights
by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of stock of any class or the payment of any stock
dividend or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or by
reason of any dissolution, liquidation, reorganization, merger or consolidation or spin-off of
assets or stock of another corporation, and any issued by the Company of shares of stock of any
class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall not affect, and no
adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or Exercise Price of Shares
subject to the Option granted hereunder.
7. Non-Transferability of the Option. This Agreement, and the Option granted
hereunder, shall not be transferable otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution
and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee; provided, however,
that this Agreement, and the Option granted hereunder, may be transferred to one or more members of
the immediate family of the Optionee or to a trust for the benefit of such person or as directed
under a qualified domestic relations order. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge,
hypothecation or other disposition of this Agreement and the Option granted hereunder contrary to
the provisions hereof, or the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process upon this
Agreement, and the Option granted hereunder, shall be null and void and without effect.
8. Compliance with Securities and other Laws. In no event shall the Company be
required to issue Shares under the Option granted hereunder, if the issuance thereof would
constitute a violation of applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations or a violation
of any other law or regulation of any governmental or regulatory agency or authority or any
national securities exchange. As a condition to any issuance of Shares, the Company may place
legends on shares, issue stop transfer orders and require such agreements or undertakings as the
Company may deem necessary or advisable to assure compliance with any such laws or regulations,
including, if the Company or its counsel deems it appropriate, representations from the Optionee
that the Optionee is acquiring the Shares solely for investment and not with a view to distribution
and that no distribution of the Shares will be made unless such shares are registered pursuant to
applicable federal and state securities laws, or in the opinion of counsel of the Company, such
registration is unnecessary.
5
9. Issuance of Shares. Upon the Company’s determination that the Option granted
hereunder has been validly exercised as to any of the Shares, the Committee shall, at its sole
discretion, cause the Secretary of the Company to issue certificates in the Optionee’s name for
such Shares. The Company shall not be liable to the Optionee for damages relating to any delays in
issuing the certificates, if any, to the Optionee, any loss of the certificates, or any mistakes or
errors in the issuance of the certificates or in the certificates themselves.
10. Alternative Award for Cancellation of the Option. For purposes of this Agreement,
the payment to the Optionee of an alternative award or an amount in cash pursuant to the terms of
Section 16 of the Plan in consideration of the cancellation of the Option granted hereunder shall
extinguish any rights of the Optionee in connection with this Agreement.
11. Notices. Any notice necessary under this Agreement shall be in writing, signed by
the party giving or making the same, and addressed (a) to the Company in the care of its President
or Secretary at the principal executive office of the Company in Dallas, Texas, (b) to the Optionee
at the address appearing in the personnel records of the Company for such Optionee or (c) to either
party at such other address as either party hereto may hereafter designate in writing to the other.
Except as otherwise provided herein, any such notice shall be deemed effective upon receipt
thereof by the addressee.
12. Choice of Law. THE INTERPRETATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND.
13. Option Subject to Plan. The Option is subject to the Plan. The terms and
provisions of the Plan as it may be amended from time to time are hereby incorporated herein by
reference. In the event of a conflict between any term or provision contained herein and a term or
provision of the Plan, the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan will govern and prevail.
14. Amendment of Agreement. This Agreement may be amended, altered, suspended,
discontinued or terminated by the Committee; provided that no such amendment, alteration,
suspension or termination shall materially impair the rights of the Optionee hereunder without the
consent of the Optionee.
15. Administration of Plan and Agreement. Any determinations or decisions made or
actions taken arising out of or in connection with the interpretation and administration of the
Plan and this Agreement by the Committee shall be final and conclusive.
16. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each

dissolution, liquidation, merger or consolidation or spin-off of assets or stock of another
corporation; any issuance by the Company of Shares of any class, or securities convertible into
Shares of any class, shall not affect the Award, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made
with respect to the number or price of the Company’s Shares subject to the Award. An Award of
Restricted Stock shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments,
reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge or
to consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or
assets.
