All Director Options under this Policy shall be made under and pursuant to the Plan (as defined below). The Options shall not become vested until the first anniversary of the Option Grant Date (the "Annual Award Vesting Date"). If a Director ceases to serve as a Director before the Annual Award Vesting Date due to the Director's death, or if there is a Change of Control prior to the Annual Award Vesting Date, then the Options shall become fully vested as of the date of such death or Change of Control, as applicable. If a Director ceases to serve as a Director at any time for any reason other than death before the earlier of the Annual Award Vesting Date or a Change of Control, then the annual equity grant shall become vested pro rata (based on the number of days between the Option Grant Date and the date of cessation of services divided by 365), and to the extent the Options are not thereby vested they shall be forfeited as of the date of such cessation of services.

Any Options issued in accordance with the terms of this Policy shall be made under and pursuant to the Plan. The Board, in its sole discretion and in recognition for meritorious service, may elect to vest up to 100% of a Director's unvested equity awards upon retirement.

The compensation described in this Policy is in addition to reimbursement of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Directors in attending meetings of the Board.
