Amendment of the Plan. The Board may at any time and from time to time amend the Plan in any respect, except that without the approval within 12 months of such Board action by the stockholders, no amendment shall be made increasing the number of shares approved for the Plan or making any other change that would require stockholder approval in order for the Plan, as amended, to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423(b) of the U.S. Code.

AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time, or from time to time, amend this Plan in any respect, except that, without the approval of a majority of the shares of Stock of the Company then issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, no amendment shall be made # increasing the number of shares approved for this Plan (other than as provided in Section 4), # decreasing the Purchase Price per share, # withdrawing the administration of this Plan from the Committee, # changing the designation of the class of employees eligible to receive options under the Plan, or # which would render options granted under the Plan unqualified for special tax treatment under the Code.

Amendment and Termination. Subject to the requirements of [subsection (c)], the Board may at any time wholly or partially amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan. However, without approval of the Company’s stockholders given within twelve (12) months before or after the action by the Board, no action of the Board may, except as provided in Section 13 hereof, increase the limits imposed in Section 3 hereof on the maximum number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan or extend the term of the Plan under Section 7 hereof.

Amendment of the Plan. The Board may at any time, and from time to time, amend or suspend this Plan or any portion thereof, except that # if the approval of any such amendment by the shareholders of the Company is required by Section 423 of the Code, such amendment shall not be effected without such approval, and # in no event may any amendment be made that would cause the Plan to fail to comply with Section 423 of the Code.

Section # Amendment. The Board may amend the Plan from time to time as it deems desirable or necessary by any applicable rules and regulations, and such amendments shall include the ability of the Board to amend the Plan and, with shareholder approval, to increase the number of Shares subject to the Plan. Any amendment to the Plan shall not apply to Awards granted to Participants that have vested prior to the effective date of the amendment unless it has been otherwise agreed to, in writing, by the Committee and the affected Participant.

The Board may at any time, and from time to time, modify or amend in any respect or terminate the Plan. If shareholder approval is not obtained within twelve months after any amendment increasing the number of shares authorized under the Plan or changing the class of persons eligible to receive Options under the Plan, no Options granted pursuant to such amendments shall be deemed to be Incentive Stock Options and no Incentive Stock Options shall be issued pursuant to such amendments thereafter.

Amendment and Termination. The Board may amend, alter or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that no amendment which would amend or modify the Plan in a manner requiring stockholder approval under Code Section 423 or the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Shares are traded shall be effective unless, within one year after it is adopted by the Board, it is approved by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Company's outstanding shares. In addition, the Committee (if appointed under Section 3.1) may amend the Plan as provided in [Section 3.3], subject to the conditions set forth therein and in this [Section 11.7].
