covers certain liabilities of our directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors
or officers and a policy of directors&#8217; and officers&#8217; liability insurance that covers certain liabilities arising under the
Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or
persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.</P>

us and our stockholders.</P>

rate as shall then preclude the imputation of interest under the Code, (c)&nbsp;shares of Stock (including, in the case of payment of
the exercise price of an Award, shares of Stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of the Award) held for such period of time as may be
required by the Committee in order to avoid adverse accounting consequences and having a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal

respect to shares of Stock then issuable upon exercise or vesting of an Award, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient
portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the aggregate payments required, <I>provided,</I> that payment
of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale, or (e)&nbsp;other property acceptable to the Committee. The
Committee shall also determine the methods by which shares of Stock shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants. Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant who is a member of the Board or an &#8220;executive officer&#8221; of
the Company within the meaning of Section&nbsp;13(k)&nbsp;of the Exchange Act shall be permitted to pay the exercise price of an Option

The Company or any Subsidiary shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company,
an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including the Participant&#8217;s FICA or employment tax obligation)
required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning a Participant arising as a result of this Plan. </FONT>The
Company may deduct an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations based on the applicable statutory withholding rates (or such other
rate as may be determined by the Company after considering any accounting consequences or costs) from any payment of any kind otherwise
due to a Participant. In the absence of a contrary determination by the Company (or, with respect to withholding pursuant to clause (ii)&nbsp;below
with respect to Awards held by individuals subject to Section&nbsp;16 of the Exchange Act, a contrary determination by the Committee),
all tax withholding obligations will be calculated based on the minimum applicable statutory withholding rates. Subject to any Company
insider trading policy (including blackout periods), Participants may satisfy such tax obligations (a)&nbsp;in&nbsp;cash, provided that
the Company may limit the use of cash if one or more of the payment forms below is permitted, (b)&nbsp;to the extent permitted by the
Committee, in&nbsp;shares of Stock (including, in the case of payment of the exercise price of an Award, shares of Stock issuable pursuant
to the exercise of the Award) held for such period of time as may be required by the Committee in order to avoid adverse accounting consequences
and having a fair market value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate payments required, (c)&nbsp;unless the Committee determines
otherwise, delivery of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to shares of Stock then
issuable upon exercise or vesting of an Award, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of
the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the aggregate payments required, <I>provided,</I> that payment of such proceeds is then made
to the Company upon settlement of such sale, or (d)&nbsp;other property acceptable to the Committee. Notwithstanding any other provision
of the Plan, the number of shares of Stock which may be withheld or surrendered pursuant to clause (b)&nbsp;of the immediately preceding
sentence with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award shall be limited to the number of shares of Stock which
have a fair market value on the date of withholding or surrender equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum
statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental
taxable income (or such higher tax rates as may be approved by the Committee, which rates shall in no event exceed the maximum individual
statutory tax rate in the applicable jurisdiction at the time of such withholding (or such other rate as may be required to avoid the
liability classification of the applicable award under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America)); provided,
that the number of shares of Stock withheld delivered or returned shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share sufficient to cover the
applicable tax withholding obligation to the extent rounding up to the nearest whole share does not result in the liability classification
of the applicable Award under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Committee shall determine
the fair market value of the Stock, consistent with applicable provisions of the Code, for tax withholding obligations due in connection
with a broker-assisted cashless Option or Stock Appreciation Right exercise involving the sale of shares to pay the Option or Stock Appreciation
Right exercise price or any tax withholding obligation.</P>

as practicable; (ii) such Shares may be sold as part of a block trade with other participants in the Plan in which all participants receive
an average price; (iii) the Participant will be responsible for all broker&rsquo;s fees and other costs of sale, and the Participant agrees
to indemnify and hold the Company and its Subsidiaries harmless from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses relating to any such sale;
(iv) to the extent the proceeds of such sale exceed the applicable tax withholding obligation, the Company agrees to pay such excess in
cash to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable; (v) the Participant acknowledges that the Company or its designee is under
no obligation to arrange for such sale at any particular price, and that the proceeds of any such sale may not be sufficient to satisfy
the applicable tax withholding obligation; and (vi) in the event the proceeds of such sale are insufficient to satisfy the applicable
tax withholding obligation, the Participant agrees to pay immediately upon demand to the Company or its Subsidiaries with respect to which
the withholding obligation arises, an amount sufficient to satisfy any remaining portion of the Company&rsquo;s or the applicable Subsidiary&rsquo;s
withholding obligation.</P>
