Notwithstanding the foregoing, no action of the Board may increase (other than as provided in Section 9.01 hereof) the maximum number of Plan Shares permitted to be awarded under the Plan as specified at Section 5.03, materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan or materially modify the requirements for eligibility for participation in the Plan unless such action of the Board shall be subject to ratification by the stockholders of the Parent.
