Treatment of Options and Convertible Securities In case the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall issue, sell, grant or assume any Options or Convertible Securities (both as defined below), then, and in each such case, the maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, without regard to any provisions contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number the purpose of which is to protect against dilution) at any time issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue, sale, grant or assumption; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such Additional Shares of Common Stock shall not be deemed to have been issued unless the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 3.e hereof) of such shares would be less than the greater of the Current Market Price or the Warrant Price in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issue, sale, grant or assumption, as the case may be; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that in any such case in which Additional Shares of Common Stock are deemed to be issued:
Treatment of Options (a) At the Effective Time of the Merger, each outstanding option to purchase Company Common Stock (a "Company Stock Option") issued pursuant to the Company's Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Director Plan") or the Company's Stock Option and Restricted Stock Purchase Plan (the "Option Plan" and, collectively with the Director Plan, the "Company Stock Plans"), whether vested or unvested, shall be deemed to constitute an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Company Stock Option, those shares of Parent Common Stock and CVPs which the holder of such Company Stock Option would have been entitled to receive pursuant to the Merger if such holder had exercised such option in full immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (utilizing the Exchange Ratio as set forth in Section 2.01 of this Agreement), at a price per share equal to (y) the aggregate exercise price for the shares of Company Common Stock purchasable pursuant to such Company Stock Option divided by (z) the number of full shares of Parent Common Stock deemed purchasable pursuant to such Company Stock Option (a "Converted Option"); provided, however, that in the case of any option to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its qualification under Section 422 of the Code ("incentive stock options"), the option price, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock purchasable pursuant to such option and the terms and conditions of exercise of such option shall be determined in order to comply with Section 424(a) of the Code. If the relevant Company Stock Option is not exercised prior to the Maturity Date (as defined in Exhibit A), any CVPs due pursuant thereto shall terminate and become null and void. If the relevant Company Stock Option is exercised, in whole or in part prior to the Maturity Date (as defined in Exhibit A), upon the sale of any shares of Parent Common Stock received upon the exercise of the relevant Company Stock Option, the CVPs due pursuant to such shares sold shall terminate and become null and void.
Term of Options Unless the Options terminate earlier pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the Plan, the Options shall expire on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Grant Date (“Option Expiration Date”).

Transferability of Options During the lifetime of an Optionee, only such Optionee (or, in the event of legal incapacity or incompetency, the Optionee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise the Option.
