If Mr. Evans’s employment with the Company is terminated on account of his death or due to a Disability (as such term is defined in the Evans Option Agreement) suffered by Mr. Evans, then any unexercised part of the Option (to the extent otherwise exercisable) will be fully exercisable for a period of one year following such termination. If Mr. Evans’s employment is terminated during the period commencing on a Change of Control (as defined in the Evans Option Agreement) other than for cause, then any unexercised Option (to the extent otherwise exercisable) will continue to be fully exercisable for 90 days following such termination. If Mr. Evans’s employment is terminated for cause, then any unexercised portion of Option will terminate effective immediately upon such termination.
