期权行权。

根据本文档和计划中规定的限制,本期权可以通过向公司发出通知来行使,具体规定如第5条所载。根据期权购买的股票支付行使价格应当采取以下方式之一:(a) 现金、支票或等值现金支付;(b) 转交给公司,或者证明期权持有人拥有的普通股的公允市值(由公司确定,不考虑针对该普通股的可转让性限制,因为联邦或州证券法律或与公司承销商达成的协议)不低于行权价格;(c) 交付正确填写的通知,并提供不可撤销的指示,要求经纪人将部分或全部行使期权所购买的股票的销售或贷款收益分配给公司,(包括但不限于通过符合美联储理事会从时间到时间制定的Regulation t条文的行使);(d) 通过保留与行使期权的股票相等的数量的期权股,乘以行使时的公平市值,然后将其除以行使的期权数,最后四舍五入为最接近的整数;(e) 通过董事会不时批准的其他方式支付。

在适用法律规定的范围内,或者(f)由任何组合的几种方式。 尽管前述情况,如果期权未行使部分的行使价格低于在期权根据第3(a)条款提供的到期日当天普通股的公允市场价值,则该期权将在到期前立即按照上述条款(d)自动行使。

如果受权人希望通过证明的方式支付期权股票的购买价格,受权人可以在委员会可能采纳的任何条件并遵守任何程序的情况下,通过证明拥有普通股权的相应价值来执行此操作,在这种情况下,公司应在此次行权后向受权人发行或交付一定数量的期权股票,其数量等于将(a)普通股权总数中受期权约束的普通股的市场公允价值与支付该行权的购买价格的差额除以(b)受期权约束的普通股的每股市场公允价值得到的结果,受权人可以保留证明拥有权益的普通股。

尽管本文件中可能内容相反,期权持有人同意不会行使根据此文件授予的期权,公司将无义务根据此期权协议发行任何期权股份,如果期权的行使或此类股份的发行,将构成期权持有人或公司违反任何政府机构的法律或法规,或任何股票交易所或交易报价系统的规定。 期权持有人同意,除非根据1933年修订版《证券法案》(「法案」)登记了计划涵盖的期权和股份,公司可以视情决定,要求期权持有人以书面方式向公司提供满足公司要求的形式和内容的陈述,证明他是在自己的账户中为投资而取得此类股份,并非出于意图,或者与之相关连地出售此类股份或其任何部分。
