The Company’s 2015 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) provides for the grant of nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (“Company Stock”).  The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) has decided to make a nonqualified stock option grant to encourage the Grantee to contribute materially to the growth of the Company, thereby benefiting the Company’s stockholders, and aligning the economic interests of the Grantee with those of the stockholders.  A copy of the Plan is attached to this Agreement.  All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

2.         Exercisability of Option.  The Option shall become exercisable on the following dates (each, a “Vesting Date”):_____________________________________, provided the Grantee is still employed by the Company on the respective Vesting Date.


3.         Option Term.


(a)       The Option shall have a term of ten (10) years from the Date of Grant and shall terminate at the expiration of that period, unless it is terminated at an earlier date pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the Plan.

(c)       If the Grantee’s Service to the Company is terminated by the Company for cause (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion), the Option shall expire on the date of such termination, and no portion shall be exercisable after the date of such termination.

4.         Exercise Procedures.


(a)       Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 2 and 3 above, the Grantee may exercise part or all of the exercisable Option by giving the Company written notice to exercise in the manner provided in this Agreement, specifying the number of Shares as to which the Option is to be exercised and tendering payment for such Shares.  The Grantee shall pay an amount equal to the Strike Price multiplied by the number of Shares as to which the Option is to be exercised (the “Exercise Price”) (i) by certified or official bank check (or the equivalent thereof acceptable to the Company); or (ii) by delivery of shares of Common Stock acquired at least six months prior to the option exercise date and having a fair market value (as defined in the Plan and determined as of the exercise date) equal to all or part of the Exercise Price and a certified or official bank check (or the equivalent thereof acceptable to the Company) for any remaining portion of the Exercise Price; or (iii) by “net exercise”, as a result of which the Grantee will receive (X) the number of Shares as to which the Option is to be exercised less (Y) such number of shares of Common Stock as is equal to (I) the aggregate Exercise Price for the portion of the Option being exercised divided by (II) the fair market value (as defined in the Plan) on the date of exercise.


(b)       The Company’s obligation to deliver Shares upon exercise of the Option shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and also to such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed appropriate by the Committee, including such actions as Company counsel shall deem necessary or appropriate to comply with relevant securities laws and regulations.  The Company may require that the Grantee (or other person having the right to exercise the Option) represent that the Grantee (or such other person) is purchasing Shares for his/her own account and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution of the Shares, or such other representation as the Committee deems appropriate.


(c)       All obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be subject to the rights of the Company as set forth in the Plan to withhold amounts required to be withheld for any taxes, if applicable.  Subject to Committee approval, the Grantee may elect to satisfy any tax withholding obligation of the Company with respect to the Option by having Shares withheld from delivery having a value equal to the amount of the tax withheld.  The election must be in a form and manner prescribed by the Committee and shall be subject to the prior approval of the Committee.

(a)       The Grantee agrees that he or she shall not sell, transfer, pledge, donate, assign, mortgage, hypothecate or otherwise encumber the Shares underlying the Option unless the Shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Company is given an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company that such registration is not required under the Securities Act.


(b)       As a condition to receive any Shares upon the exercise of the Option, the Grantee agrees to be bound by the Company’s policies regarding the limitations on the transfer of such Shares, and understands that the Grantee will be prohibited from selling, transferring, pledging, donating, assigning, mortgaging, hypothecating or otherwise encumbering the Shares.


8.         No Employment or Other Rights.  The grant of the Option shall not confer upon the Grantee any right to be retained by or in the service of the Company and shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the Grantee’s service at any time.  The right of the Company to terminate at will the Grantee’s service at any time for any reason is specifically reserved.
