Manner of Option Exercise This Option may be exercised by Xxxxx in whole or in part from time to time, subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, by delivery, in person, by facsimile or electronic transmission or through the mail, to Xxxxxx at his principal executive office, of a written Notice of Exercise, with a copy to RDO at its principal executive office. Such notice will identify this Option, will specify the number of Option Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised, and will be signed by the person so exercising the Option. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the total purchase price of the Option Shares purchased. In the event that the Option is being exercised by any person or persons other than Xxxxx, the Notice will be accompanied by appropriate proof of right of such person or persons to exercise the Option. As soon as practicable after the effective exercise of the Option, Xxxxxx will deliver to the person exercising this Option one or more duly issued stock certificates evidencing such ownership, together with an assignment separate from the certificate duly endorsed by him evidencing the transfer of the Option Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised. Upon receipt of the foregoing, RDO will deliver to the transferee one or more duly issued stock certificates bearing such transfer restrictions as may then be appropriate based upon advice of RDO's legal counsel.
Method of Option Exercise The Option may be exercised in whole or in part by filing a written notice with, and which must be received by, the Secretary of the Company at its corporate headquarters prior to the Expiration Date. Such notice shall (a) specify the number of shares of Stock which the Participant elects to purchase; provided, however, that not less than one hundred (100) shares of Stock may be purchased at any one time unless the number purchased is the total number of shares available for purchase at that time under the Option, and (b) be accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price for such shares of Stock indicated by the Participant’s election. Payment shall be by cash or by check payable to the Company, or, at the discretion of the Committee at any time: (a) all or a portion of the Exercise Price may be paid by the Participant by delivery of shares of Stock acceptable to the Committee (including, if the Committee so approves, the withholding of shares otherwise issuable upon exercise of the Option) and having an aggregate Fair Market Value (valued as of the date of exercise) that is equal to the amount of cash that would otherwise be required; and (b) the Participant may pay the Exercise Price by authorizing a third party to sell shares of Stock (or a sufficient portion of the shares) acquired upon exercise of the Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of the sale proceeds to pay the entire Exercise Price and any tax withholding resulting from such exercise.
Expiration of Option The Option may not be exercised to any extent by anyone after the first to occur of the following events:

Subject to Section 15(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Option Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option ("ISO"), this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. However, if this Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d) it shall be treated as a Nonstatutory Stock Option ("NSO").

Upon receipt of any such notice and accompanying payment, and subject to the terms hereof, the Company agrees to issue to the Optionee or the Optionee's administrators, executors or personal representatives, as the case may be, stock certificates for the number of shares specified in such notice registered in the name of the person exercising this Option.
Option Exercisability The Option shall terminate immediately upon the Participant’s termination of Service to the extent that it is then unvested and shall be exercisable after the Participant’s termination of Service to the extent it is then vested only during the applicable time period as determined below and thereafter shall terminate.

Taxation upon Exercise of Option Optionee understands that, upon exercise of this Option, Optionee will recognize income, for Federal and state income tax purposes, in an amount equal to the amount by which the fair market value of the Shares, determined as of the date of exercise, exceeds the Exercise Price. The acceptance of the Shares by Optionee shall constitute an agreement by Optionee to report such income in accordance with then applicable law and to cooperate with Company in establishing the amount of such income and corresponding deduction to the Company for its income tax purposes. Withholding for federal or state income and employment tax purposes will be made, if and as required by law, from Optionee’s then current compensation, or, if such current compensation is insufficient to satisfy withholding tax liability, the Company may require Optionee to make a cash payment to cover such liability as a condition of the exercise of this Option.
