3. Additional Terms and Conditions .

 


a. Exercise of Option; Payments for Shares . An Option may be exercised from time to time with respect to all or any portion of the number of Shares with respect to which the Option has become exercisable, in whole or in part, by written notice to the Company at the Company's then principal office, to the attention of the Administrative Committee for the 2009 Legacy Wine & Spirits International Ltd. Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "Committee"), substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Option may be exercised prior to the date on which the Plan is approved by the Company's shareholders. Any notice of exercise of the Option shall be accompanied by payment of the full Exercise Price for the Shares being purchased by certified or bank check payable to the order of Legacy Wine & Spirits International Ltd. or, as may be allowed by the Committee, by delivery to the Company of a number of Shares already owned by Optionee having a fair market value equal to such Exercise Price. In addition, with the consent of the Committee, the Company may cooperate with Optionee in arranging a "cashless exercise" of the Option through a broker approved by the Committee. The Option shall not be exercised for any fractional Shares and no fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered. The date of actual receipt by the Company of the notice of exercise shall be treated as the date of exercise of the Option for the Shares being purchased. To enforce any restrictions on a Participant’s Shares, the Board may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Board appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated, and the Board may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificates. Any Participant who is permitted to execute a promissory note as partial or full consideration for the purchase of Shares under this Plan will be required to pledge and deposit with the Company all or part of the Shares so purchased as collateral to secure the payment of Participant’s obligation to the Company under the promissory note; provided, however, that the Board may require or accept other or additional forms of collateral to secure the payment of such obligation and, in any event, the Company will have full recourse against the Participant under the promissory note notwithstanding any pledge of the Participant’s Shares or other collateral. In connection with any pledge of the Shares, Participant will be required to execute and deliver a written pledge agreement in such form as the Board will from time to time approve. The Shares purchased with the promissory note may be released from the pledge on a pro rata basis as the promissory note is paid.

 

b. Termination of Option . If Optionee's employment with the Company or any Subsidiary terminates, the Option shall continue to be exercisable, to the extent it is exercisable on the date such employment terminated, for three (3) months after such termination, but in no event after the date the Option otherwise terminates. However, if Optionee's employment terminates because of Optionee's death or disability, the Option shall continue to be exercisable, to the extent it is exercisable on the date such employment terminated, for twelve (12) months after such termination, but in no event after the date the Option otherwise terminates.
