<B>PROPOSAL NO. 3 &ndash; AMENDMENT OF 2006 LONG-TERM EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Board of Directors proposes that the
shareholders approve an amendment (the &quot;Amendment&quot;) to the Company's 2006 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the &quot;Plan&quot;).&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Amendment would increase the maximum number of shares issuable under the Plan by 5,000,000 shares, and would increase the maximum
number of shares that may subject to awards granted to any one individual over the life of the Plan from 3,000,000 to 3,750,000.
A copy of the Plan as amended is attached as Appendix&nbsp;A.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Board believes that stock options are
essential to attract and retain the most talented personnel available for positions of substantial responsibility, to encourage
ownership of the Common Stock by employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, and to promote the Company's success by providing
both rewards for exceptional performance and long-term incentives for future contributions.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board of Directors believes
that the number of shares currently available for issuance will be insufficient to achieve the purposes of the Plan unless additional
shares are authorized.&nbsp;&nbsp;In April 2015 the Board and its Compensation Committee acted to amend the Plan (the &quot;Amendment&quot;)
by increasing by 5,000,000 the total number of shares available for issuance under the Plan, and directed that the Amendment be
submitted to the shareholders for approval. The Board recommends that the shareholders approve the Amendment, in order to allow
the Company to continue to offer stock options to key employees and directors as part of its overall compensation package. The
Amendment will not take effect unless approved by the shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">It should be noted that the Company previously
maintained a 1991 Stock Option Plan (the &quot;1991 Plan&quot;), under which a total of 2,657,870 shares were issued to directors,
officers and other employees, and a 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the &quot;1997 Plan&quot;), under which a total of 4,622,159
shares were issued to directors, officers and other employees.&nbsp;&nbsp;An aggregate of 383,661 shares may be issued in the future
upon exercise of options outstanding under the 1997 Plan.&nbsp;&nbsp;The 1991 Plan and 1997 Plan (together, the &ldquo;Prior Plans&rdquo;)
have expired, and therefore no new grants can be made under either of the Prior Plans. No grants under the 1991 Plan remain eligible
for exercise.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The number of shares of Common Stock reserved
for issuance under the Plan prior to the proposed Amendment is 12,200,000, plus such number of shares as were authorized for issuance
under the Prior Plans but become unavailable for issuance due to expiration or other termination of the Prior Plans or of grants
thereunder, in all events&nbsp;<I>without</I>&nbsp;issuance of shares. Giving effect to such adjustments, the total number of shares
issuable under the Plan prior to the Amendment, and measured as of the date of this proxy statement, is 14,094,180 shares. Of the
shares authorized for issuance under the Plan, approximately 9,754,345 are the subject of outstanding valid options as of April
22, 2015, and 2,231,454 shares have been issued pursuant to exercise of options granted under the Plan.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The number of shares remaining available
for future awards under the Plan, after giving effect to all outstanding grants and prior exercises, is 2,108,381 as of April 22,
2015. The Amendment would increase the number of shares issuable under the Plan by 5,000,000, to a total maximum of 19,094,180
shares, of which 7,108,381 would be available for future grants. To the extent that outstanding grants under the 1997 Plan expire
unexercised, any or all of the 383,661 shares issuable upon exercise of options that are now outstanding under the 1997 Plan would
be added to the total number of shares authorized for issuance under the Plan, and removed from the shares authorized for issuance
under the 1997 Plan. Because any such adjustment is share-for-share, the total number of shares issuable under the Plan and the
Prior Plans would be unaffected by such adjustments. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Plan provides for the grant of incentive
stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights and stock awards (as those terms are described below) to employees
and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company has 899 employees and five non-employee directors, all
of whom are eligible to participate in the Plan; however, based on past practice and present policy, it would be reasonable to
expect that it will be the Company&rsquo;s managerial and officer employees (47 individuals) and its five non-employee directors
who will receive awards under the Plan. From the inception of the Plan in 2006 to the present, no awards other than stock options
have been granted under the Plan. There are no current plans to issue any awards other than stock options; however, the Board and
the Compensation Committee have examined the possibility of granting awards of restricted stock, and may do so in the future.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Board or a Committee of the Board
consisting of two or more non-employee directors may administer the Plan.&nbsp;&nbsp;Currently, the Compensation Committee of
the Board administers the Plan.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board or the Committee has authority to administer and interpret the Plan and to
determine the form and substance of agreements, instruments and guidelines for the administration of the Plan.&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Board or the Committee has authority to determine the employees and directors to be granted stock options under the Plan and to
determine the size, type and applicable terms and conditions of such grants.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Because the employees and directors who may receive
stock option grants and the amount of such grants are determined by the Board or the Committee from time to time, it is not possible
to state the names or positions of, or the number of options that may be granted to, such employees and directors of the Company
and its subsidiaries.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, it can reasonably be anticipated that each person nominated for election as a director
at the Annual Meeting, and each executive officer of the Company, may at some time in the future receive grants under the Plan.
The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may subject to awards granted to any one individual over the life of the Plan
has been 3,000,000, and would be increased by the Amendment to 3,750,000.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Board or the Committee is authorized
to establish, at the time each grant is made, the time or times at which stock options may be exercised and whether all of the
stock options become exercisable at one time or in increments over time.&nbsp;&nbsp;The exercise price of stock options is set
by the Board or the Committee at the time of the granting of an option, and will not be less than the fair market value of such
shares at the time of grant. It is anticipated that awards will be granted in consideration of the recipients&rsquo; continued
service with the Company.&nbsp;&nbsp;In the event of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or similar capital adjustment,
the Plan provides for appropriate adjustments to the number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the exercise of stock options,
the number of stock options previously granted and the exercise price of stock options previously granted.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The closing price of the Company's Common
Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange LLC on April 22, 2015, was $6.80 per share, and the additional 5,000,000 shares to be authorized
for issuance under the Plan thus have an aggregate market value of $34,000,000.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The term of stock options granted under
the Plan may not be more than ten (10) years from the date of grant.&nbsp;&nbsp;Options expire upon the earliest to occur of (i)
three months following termination of employment, (ii) immediately upon the discharge of an optionee for misconduct that is willfully
or wantonly harmful to the Company or any subsidiary, (iii) twelve months after an optionee's death or disability that renders
the optionee incapable of continuing employment, (iv)&nbsp;upon the expiration date specified in the optionee's grant agreement,
or (v) ten years after the date of grant.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The aggregate exercise price of options
may be paid in cash or by cashier&rsquo;s check, or otherwise as provided in specific option agreements or with the consent of
the Committee.&nbsp;The Committee has consented in the past and may consent in the future to &ldquo;net exercise&rdquo; of options,
that is the payment of the exercise price by surrender to the Company of a portion of the shares acquired upon exercise, valued
at the current market price of such shares.&nbsp;Unless otherwise provided by the Board or the Committee administering the Plan,
awards granted under the Plan may not be transferred by the optionee or by operation of law other than (i) by will of or by the
laws of descent and distribution applicable to a deceased optionee, or (ii) pursuant to a domestic relations order.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Plan and all rules, guidelines and
regulations adopted with respect thereto may be terminated, suspended, modified or amended at any time by action of the Board or
the Committee, provided, however, that any increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to options granted under
the Plan must be approved by the shareholders of the Company.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board or the Committee may amend the terms and conditions
of outstanding stock options as long as such amendments do not (i) adversely affect the holders of such stock options without such
holders' consent, (ii) change the length of the term of such stock options or (iii) change the provisions of such stock options
so that they are not permitted under the Plan.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The federal income tax consequences of
an optionee's participation in the Plan are complex and subject to change.&nbsp;&nbsp;The following discussion is a summary of
the general rules applicable to stock options.&nbsp;&nbsp;Recipients of stock options under the Plan should consult their own tax
advisors because a taxpayer's particular situation may be such that some variation of the general rules would apply.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Incentive stock options qualify for favorable
tax treatment for the optionee under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the &quot;Code&quot;). Nonqualified
stock options are any stock options that do not qualify as &quot;incentive stock options&quot; and will not qualify for any special
tax benefits to the optionee.&nbsp;&nbsp;The federal income tax consequences of an employee's participation in the Plan are discussed
below.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Optionees will not recognize any income
upon either the grant or the exercise of incentive stock options and the Company may not take a deduction for federal tax purposes
with respect to such grant or exercise.&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon the sale of the shares of Common Stock obtained through the exercise of
incentive stock options by the optionee, the tax treatment to the optionee and the Company will depend primarily upon whether the
optionee has met certain holding period requirements at the time he or she sells the shares.&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, as discussed
below, the exercise of incentive stock options may subject the optionee to alternative minimum tax liability.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">If an optionee exercises incentive stock
options and does not dispose of the shares received within two&nbsp;years after the date of the grant of such stock options or
within one year after the issuance of the shares to him or her, any gain realized upon disposition will be characterized as long-term
capital gain. In such case, the Company will not be entitled to a federal tax deduction. If the optionee disposes of the shares
either within two years after the date that the options are granted or within one year after the issuance of the shares to him
or her, such disposition will be treated as a disqualifying disposition and an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the fair market
value of the shares on the date of exercise minus the exercise price, or (ii) the amount realized on the disposition minus the
exercise price, will be taxed as ordinary income to the optionee in the taxable year in which the disposition occurs.&nbsp;&nbsp;The
excess, if any, of the amount realized upon disposition over the fair market value at the time of the exercise of the stock options
will be treated as long-term capital gain if the shares have been held for more than one year following the exercise of the stock
options.&nbsp;&nbsp;In the event of a disqualifying disposition, the Company may withhold income taxes from the optionee's compensation
with respect to the ordinary income realized by the optionee as a result of the disqualifying disposition.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The exercise of incentive stock options
may subject an optionee to alternative minimum tax liability because the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time
incentive stock options are exercised over the exercise price of the stock options is included in income for purposes of the alternative
minimum tax, even though it is not included in the taxable income for purposes of determining the regular tax liability of an optionee.
Consequently, an optionee may be obligated to pay alternative minimum tax in the year he or she exercises incentive stock options.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In general, there will be no federal income
tax deductions allowed to the Company upon the grant, exercise, or termination of incentive stock options. However, in the event
an optionee sells or disposes of stock received upon the exercise of incentive stock options in a disqualifying disposition, the
Company is entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the ordinary income, if any, recognized
by the optionee upon disposition of the shares, provided that the deduction is not otherwise disallowed under the Code.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Nonqualified stock options granted under
the Plan do not qualify for any special tax benefits to the optionee.&nbsp;&nbsp;An optionee will not recognize any taxable income
at the time he or she is granted nonqualified stock options.&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon the exercise of nonqualified stock options, however,
the optionee will recognize ordinary income for federal tax purposes measured by the excess of the then fair market value of the
shares acquired over the aggregate option exercise price. The income realized by the optionee will be subject to income
tax withholding by the Company out of the current earnings paid to the optionee. If such earnings are insufficient to
pay the tax, the optionee will be required to make a direct payment to the Company for tax liability.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The optionee's basis for determination
of gain or loss upon the subsequent disposition of shares acquired upon the exercise of nonqualified stock options will be the
amount paid for such shares plus any ordinary income recognized as a result of the exercise of such stock options.&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon
a disposition of any shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of nonqualified stock options, the difference between the aggregate
sale price and the optionee's basis in the shares will be treated as a capital gain or loss and will be characterized as long-term
capital gain or loss if the shares have been held for more than one year at the date of their disposition.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In general, there will be no federal tax
consequences to the Company upon the grant or termination of nonqualified stock options or a sale or disposition of the shares
