Repricing. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Plan or an Award to the contrary, unless such action is approved by the Company's stockholders in accordance with applicable law: # no outstanding Stock Option, Outside Director Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan may be amended to provide an exercise Price that is lower than the then-current exercise price of such outstanding Award (other than adjustments to the exercise price pursuant to [Section 3]); # the Administrator may not cancel any outstanding Stock Option, Outside Director Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right and grant in substitution therefore new Awards under the Plan covering the same or a different number of shares of Stock and having an exercise price lower than the then-current exercise price of the cancelled Awards (other than adjustments to the exercise Price pursuant to [Sections 3]); and # the Administrator may not authorize the repurchase of an outstanding Stock Option, Outside Director Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right which has an exercise price that is higher than the then-current fair market value of the Stock (other than adjustments to the exercise price pursuant to [Section 3]).
