subject to
the terms and conditions of this agreement (the "AGREEMENT")
and the
Company's 2008 Incentive Plan effective May 7, 2008 (the

which is
hereby incorporated herein in its entirety by reference. The
Shares,
when issued to the Optionee upon the exercise of the Option,
shall

Shares may
be purchased at any time after they become vested, in whole or

shall be cumulative so that if the Option is not exercised to

notice to
the attention of the Chief Financial Officer of the Company at

OF PAYMENT. The Option Price upon exercise of the Option shall
be
payable to
the Company in full either: (i) in cash or its equivalent, or

subject to prior approval by the Committee in its discretion,
by
tendering
previously acquired Shares having an aggregate Fair Market
Value
(as
defined in the Plan) at the time of exercise equal to the total
Option
Price
(provided that the Shares must have been held by the Optionee for
at
least six
(6) months prior to their tender to satisfy the Option Price),
or (iii)
subject to prior approval by the Board of Directors or
Compensation Committee in its discretion, by withholding Shares
which

Value at
the time of exercise equal to the total Option Price (as
determined
pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Plan), or (iv) subject to prior
approval
by the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee in its

Common Stock shall be effected by the delivery of such shares
to
the Chief
Financial Officer of the Company, duly endorsed in blank or
accompanied by stock powers duly executed in blank, together with
any
other
documents as the Chief Financial Officer may require. If the
payment
of the
Option Price is remitted partly in Shares, the balance of the
payment of
the Option Price shall be paid in either cash, certified check,
bank
cashiers' check, or by wire transfer.
The Board
of Directors or Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may
allow (i)
a "cashless exercise" as permitted under Federal Reserve
Board's
Regulation
T, 12 CFR Part 220 (or its successor), and subject to
applicable
securities law restrictions and tax withholdings, or (ii) any
other
means of exercise which the Board of Directors or Compensation
Committee,
in its discretion, determines to be consistent with the Plan's
purpose
and applicable law.

practicable after receipt of a written notification of exercise
and full
payment, the Company shall deliver to or on behalf of the
Optionee,
in the name of the Optionee or other appropriate recipient,
Share
certificates for the number of Shares purchased under the
Option.
Such
delivery shall be effected for all purposes when a stock
transfer
agent of
the Company shall have deposited such certificates in the
United
States
mail, addressed to Optionee or other appropriate recipient.
8.
RESTRICTIONS ON EXERCISE. The Option may not be exercised if the
issuance
of such
Shares or the method of payment of the consideration for such
Shares
would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state
securities
or other laws or regulations, including any such laws or
regulations or Company policies respecting blackout periods, or any
rules
or
regulations of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock may
be
listed.
