transfer of the Option Units upon exercise of the Option being governed by Code Section 83 and the regulations thereunder. The effect of the grant and exercise of the Option, as well as the

4.
Non-Transferability. Neither the Option nor any portion thereof shall be transferred, sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,

counsel, such offer, sale or other disposition is exempt from registration or qualification thereunder. You agree that you shall not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any Option Units in any manner
which would: (a) require the Company to file any registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or any similar filing under state law) or to amend or supplement any such
filing or (b) violate or cause the Company to violate the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or any other state or federal law. Optionee shall hold Company and its

this Agreement, harmless from all expenses, liabilities and damages (including reasonable attorneys' fees) deriving from a disposition of the Option or Option Shares subject to this Agreement in a
manner in violation of the 1933 Securities Act, or of any applicable state securities law, or which may be suffered by any such person by reason of any breach of any of the representations contained
herein.
7.
Dissolution or Liquidation of the Company. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or in the event of a
proposed sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Options shall terminate as of a date to be fixed by the Board of Directors; provided,
however, that no fewer than 30 days written notice of the date so fixed shall be given to you, and you shall have the right during the period of 30 days preceding
such termination to exercise your Option as to all or any part of the Option Shares.
8.
No Agreement of Employment. Neither the grant of the Option nor this Agreement shall be deemed to create any agreement with, or
obligation by, Company to employ Optionee for any period of time, it being understood that Optionee's employment with the Company is strictly "at will" and Optionee's service may be terminated by the
Company at any time, with or without cause.
9.
Severability. If any condition, term or provision of this Agreement is determined by a court to be illegal or in conflict with any law,
State or Federal, the validity of the remaining portions or provisions shall not be affected, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced as if this Agreement did not
contain the particular condition, terms or provisions determined to be unenforceable.

the within subject matter, and there are no representations, agreements, arrangements or understandings, oral or written, between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter of this Agreement
