Award of Stock Appreciation Rights. The Administrator may grant Stock Appreciation Rights under the Plan. A Stock Appreciation Right is an Award entitling the recipient to receive shares of Stock having a value equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise over the exercise price of the Stock Appreciation Right multiplied by the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right shall have been exercised.

Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each SAR, including but not limited to: # whether the SAR is granted independently of an Option or in tandem with an Option; # the grant date, which may not be any day prior to the date that the Administrator approves the grant; # the number of Shares to which the SAR relates; # the grant price, which may never be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the SAR as determined on the date of grant; # the terms and conditions of exercise or maturity, including vesting; # the term, provided that an SAR must terminate no later than ten (10) years after the date of grant; and # whether the SAR will be settled in cash, Shares or a combination thereof.

Stock Appreciation Rights. A SAR represents the right to receive a payment in cash, Common Stock, or a combination thereof, in an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a specified number of shares of Common Stock at the time the SAR is exercised over the exercise price of such SAR, which shall be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the same number of shares at the time the SAR was granted. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7(b), SARs shall be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, from time to time. A SAR may only be granted to an Eligible Recipient to whom an Option could be granted under the Plan.

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights to any Eligible Person (a “Freestanding Stock Appreciation Right”), upon such terms and conditions as the Committee may establish in its sole discretion, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, including the following:

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee is authorized to grant SARs to Participants on the following terms and conditions:

STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. The Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights to Employees, Consultants or Non-Employee Directors. The terms and conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights, including the vesting and exercise provisions, shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted # if unrelated to an Option, at any time, or # if related to an Option, either at the time of grant or at any time thereafter during the term of the Option. The exercise price of any Stock Appreciation Right shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the grant date of the Award.

Stock Appreciation Rights. Each Stock Appreciation Right Agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted as stand-alone Stock Awards or in tandem with other Stock Awards. The terms and conditions of Stock Appreciation Right Agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate Stock Appreciation Right Agreements need not be identical; provided, however, that each Stock Appreciation Right Agreement shall include (through incorporation of the provisions hereof by reference in the Agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:

Stock Appreciation Rights.
