The stock option grants were effective as of January 27, 2009 with an exercise price of $0.72, which was the higher of the closing price of the Company's Common Stock on April 3, 2008 (the date the grants were first discussed by the Board) and the date immediately preceding the date of the grant. The options shall vest and become exercisable in two (2) equal installments on March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2011 and the options shall expire seven (7) years from the date of grant, or January 26, 2016.
