AML COMMUNICATIONS, INC.

 

INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (OW)

 

THIS AGREEMENT is made as of February 19, 2008, between AML Communications, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Steven Ow (the “Optionee”).

 

The Board of Directors has granted to the Optionee as a matter of separate inducement in connection with his engagement with the Company, and not in lieu of any salary or other compensation for his services, an option (the “Option”) to purchase shares of the Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) on the terms and conditions set forth herein under the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (“Plan”).  This Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”).

 

This Option Agreement is entered into pursuant to Section 6.4 of the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among the Company, Mica-Tech, Inc., a California corporation, the Optionee and other shareholders of Mica-Tech, Inc.

 

The Board of Directors has approved the grant of options to purchase common stock to Optionee.  However, the optionee understands that the Company intends to increase in the number of shares of common stock issuable under the Plan by approximately 1.3 million.  In furtherance of this objective, the Board of Directors has approved such increase and will submit this increase in authorized shares under the Plan for a vote at the next scheduled meeting of stockholders currently scheduled for September 2008 and has recommended to its stockholders that they vote in favor of such increase.

 

Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meaning as in the Plan.
