                   AMENDED AND RESTATED DEFERRED DELIVERY PLAN

 

 

                             Article I. Introduction

 

         This Concord Camera Corp. Amended and Restated Deferred Delivery Plan,

as amended through June 30, 2004 (the "Plan") provides Participants with the

opportunity to defer the delivery of shares of common stock of Concord Camera

Corp. (the "Company") that would otherwise be received by the Participants upon

their exercise of stock options granted to them under the Concord Camera Corp.

1993 Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") or any other stock option plan or

arrangement of the Company. The Plan is intended to provide Participants with

added incentives and induce them to remain employed with the Company. The Plan

creates an unfunded, nonqualified plan maintained for the purposes of providing

deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated

employees as described in Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the

Employee Income Retirement Security Act of 1974, and shall be construed and

administered accordingly.

                     Article IV. Deferred Delivery Elections

 

         (a) A Participant may elect to defer receipt of the Deferred Shares

to the Participant under the Incentive Plan or any other stock option plan or

arrangement of the Company by completing and submitting a Deferral Election Form

to the Company by a date which is at least six (6) months in advance of the date

of exercise of the stock option; provided, however, that in the case of a stock

option that will expire within six months of the effective date of this Plan,

the Participant may complete and submit a Deferral Election Form by a date which

is at least five (5) months in advance of the date of exercise of the stock

option. A Participant may submit a superceding Deferral Election Form if the

superceding form provides for a Deferral Period which is both permitted under

paragraph (b) of Article VI and longer than the Deferral Period described in the

superceded Deferral Election Form; provided, however, that the revised form

shall be ineffective and shall not supercede the prior form if it is not

completed and submitted to the Company at least six (6) months in advance of the

date of exercise of the stock option.

 

         Provided the Deferral Period is permitted under paragraph (b) of

Article VI, after the date of the stock option exercise, a Participant: (i) may

elect to extend the Deferral Period by no less than two years per extension by

completing and submitting a Deferral Extension Form to the Company by a date

which is at least one year prior to the end of the Deferral Period, as the same

was scheduled, on the day before the date of the relevant extension election, to

end; and (ii) may make additional extension elections meeting the foregoing

requirements as often as once every twelve (12) months.

 

         The stock option exercise must occur on or prior to the expiration date

of the stock option and must be accomplished by delivering (actual delivery or

by attestation), on or prior to the exercise date, shares of Mature Stock having

a Fair Market Value equal to the exercise price.

 

         (b) At the time of each deferral election, the Participant shall be

required to make appropriate arrangements with the Company to pay any taxes

required to be withheld upon exercise of the stock option. The Company, in its

discretion, may permit the Participant to use shares subject to the then
