(b) if there is no public trading market for the Common Stock, the fair market value of such Shares on the date of grant as reasonably determined in good faith by the Committee after taking into consideration all factors which it deems appropriate.

(ii) if an Optionee resigns more than 30 days following an Initial Public Offering (as defined in the Stockholders’ Agreement) or an Optionee’s employment or service with the Company terminates for any reason other than for Cause, death or Disability of the Optionee, or as otherwise specified in this Article VII(a), the thirtieth (30th) day following the date of such resignation or termination;

(vi) the termination date specified in any Option Agreement evidencing such Option.
(b) Unless Company policy or the Committee otherwise provides, an Optionee’s employment or service relationship with the Company shall not be considered terminated solely due to any sick leave, military leave or any other leave of absence authorized in writing by the Company or the Committee; provided that , unless re-employment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or law, such leave is for a period of not more than 90 days. In the case of any Optionee on an approved leave of absence, continued vesting of the Options while on leave from the employ of or service with the Company will be suspended until the Optionee returns to service, unless the Committee otherwise provides or applicable law otherwise requires. In no event shall an Option be exercised after the expiration of the term of the Option set forth in the Option Agreement.
(c) Any Shares that are not acquired as a result of an Option expiring without being fully exercised shall be available for award by the Committee to another eligible Person.

LIMITATIONS ON ISOs; NOTICE TO OPTIONEES GRANTED ISOs
In accordance with Section 422(d) of the Code, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of all stock with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by such Optionee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries) exceeds $100,000 (measured as of the time the Option with respect to such stock was granted), such ISOs shall be treated as NSOs.

ARTICLE IX
PROCEDURE FOR EXERCISE
9.1Payment.
Payment upon exercise of an Option shall be made in cash or personal or certified check payable to the Company in an amount equal to the aggregate Option Price of the Common Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised or in such other manner as the Committee may from time to time permit.
9.2Notice.
(a) An Optionee (or other Person, as provided in Section 12.2) may exercise an Option granted under the Plan in whole or in part (but for the purchase of whole Shares only), as provided in the Option Agreement evidencing his or her Option, by delivering a written notice (the “Notice”) to the Secretary of the Company.

Neither the Optionee nor any Person exercising an Option in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.2 shall have any privileges as a shareholder of the Company with respect to any Shares of stock subject to an Option granted under the Plan until the date of issuance of stock certificates pursuant to this Section 9.3.

ARTICLE X
ADJUSTMENTS
10.1Changes in Capital Structure.
If the Common Stock is changed by reason of a stock split, reverse stock split or stock combination, stock dividend or distribution, or converted into or exchanged for other Securities as a result of a merger, consolidation, recapitalization or reorganization, the Board shall make such adjustments in the number and class of shares of capital stock available under the Plan as it shall deem necessary or appropriate to preserve to an Optionee rights substantially proportionate to his or her rights existing immediately prior to such transaction or event (but subject to the limitations and restrictions on such rights), including, without limitation, a corresponding adjustment changing the number and class of shares allocated to, and the Option Price of, each Option or portion thereof outstanding at the time of such change. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, in the case of ISOs, no adjustment under this Section 10.1 shall be appropriate if such adjustment (a) would constitute a modification, extension or renewal of such ISOs within the meaning of Sections 422 and 424 of the Code, and the regulations promulgated by the Treasury Department thereunder or (b) would, under Section 422 of the Code and the regulations promulgated by the Treasury Department thereunder, be considered as the adoption of a new plan requiring shareholder approval. The Company will not, in any event, permit the exercise price of any Option to be less than the par value of the Common Stock. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion and such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all Optionees and their beneficiaries.
10.2Sale of the Company.
The following rules shall apply in connection with a Sale of the Company:
(a) each holder of an Option outstanding at such time shall be given (i) written notice of such Sale of the Company at least ten (10) days prior to its proposed effective date (as specified in such notice) and (ii), an opportunity, prior to the commencement of the five-day period specified in subsection (a)(5) of Article VII hereof, to exercise the Option to the full extent to which such Option would have been exercisable by the Optionee at the expiration of such ten (10) day period; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of a Sale of the Company, all Options granted under the Plan and not so exercised shall automatically terminate; and
(b) notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, Section 10.2(a)(i) shall not be applicable if provision shall be made in connection with such Sale of the Company, in the sole discretion of the Committee, (i) for the assumption of outstanding Options by, or the substitution for such Options of new options covering the capital stock of, the surviving, successor or purchasing corporation, or a parent or Subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number, kind and option prices of Securities subject to such options; provided, however, that in the case of ISOs, the Board shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the best interests of the Company or its Subsidiaries (as determined in good faith by the Board in its sole discretion), use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that
12
any such assumption or substitution will not constitute a modification, extension or renewal of the ISOs within the meaning of Section 424(h) of the Code and the regulations promulgated by the Treasury Department thereunder or (ii) for the payment of consideration (including cash) in respect of such Options in an amount equal to the consideration payable in respect of common stock in connection with such Sale of the Company minus the Option Price thereof.
10.3Special Rules.
The following rules shall apply in connection with Sections 10.1 and 10.2 above:
(a) no adjustment shall be made for cash dividends or the issuance to shareholders of rights to subscribe for additional Shares or other Securities;
(b) any adjustments referred to in Section 10.1 and 10.2 shall be made by the Committee in its sole discretion and shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Persons holding any Options granted under the Plan; and
(c) no fractional shares shall be issued as a result of any such adjustment, and any fractional shares resulting from the computations pursuant to Section 10.1 and 10.2 shall be eliminated without consideration from the respective Options.
ARTICLE XI
ACCELERATION
(a) Power to Accelerate. The Committee shall have the power to accelerate the vesting of any Option granted under this Plan at any time following the grant of such Option.
(b) Golden Parachute Limitations. Unless otherwise specified in an Option Agreement or otherwise authorized by the Committee in the specific case, no vesting of or lapse of restrictions imposed on an Option or other Restricted Security will be accelerated under this Plan to an extent or in a manner that would result in payments that are not fully deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes because of Section 280G of the Code. If an Optionee would be entitled to benefits or payments hereunder and under any other plan or program that would constitute “parachute payments” as defined in Section 280G of the Code, then the Optionee may by written notice to the Company designate the order in which such parachute payments will be reduced or modified so that the Company is not denied any federal income tax deductions for any “parachute payments” because of Section 280G of the Code.
(c) Possible Rescission of Acceleration. If the vesting of an Option or other Restricted Security has been accelerated in anticipation of an event or upon Stockholder approval of an event and the Committee later determines that the event will not occur or following such acceleration it becomes clear that the Optionee would be treated as receiving “excess parachute payments” as defined in Section 280G of the Code in connection with such acceleration then the Committee, in its sole discretion, may rescind the effect of the acceleration as to any then outstanding and unexercised or otherwise unvested Options or other Restricted Securities.

(b) The Committee in its discretion may, as a condition to the exercise of any Option granted under the Plan, require an Optionee (i) to represent in writing that the Shares received upon exercise of an Option are being acquired for investment and not with a view to distribution, (ii) to make such other representations and warranties as are deemed appropriate by the Company and (iii) to become a party to the Stockholders’ Agreement or any other agreement to which other shareholders of the Company are a party. Stock certificates representing Shares acquired upon the exercise of Options that have not been registered under the Securities Act shall, if required by the Committee, bear the following legend or any substantially similar legend:
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”). THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO DISTRIBUTION OR RESALE, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND CERTAIN OTHER AGREEMENTS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED BY THE HOLDER HEREOF AT THE COMPANY’S PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS WITHOUT CHARGE.”
12.2Non-Transferability of Options.
No Option granted under this Plan shall be assignable or otherwise Transferable by the Optionee, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. An Option may be exercised during the lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee. If an Optionee dies, his or her Options shall thereafter be exercisable, during the period specified in Article VII or the
14
applicable Option Agreement (as the case may be), by his or her executors or administrators to the full extent (but only to such extent) to which such Options were exercisable by the Optionee at the time of his or her death.
12.3Transfer of Restricted Securities; Repurchase Rights.
(a) The provisions set forth in the Stockholders’ Agreement regarding the Transfer of Restricted Securities received upon exercise of an Option shall apply to each Optionee and govern the Transfer of the Restricted Securities held by such Optionee.
(b) Unless otherwise explicitly provided in an Option Agreement, and notwithstanding the terms of the Stockholders’ Agreement, in the event that an Optionee’s employment with the Company and/or its Subsidiaries is terminated for any reason, the Company or its designees shall have the right (but not the obligation) at any time, upon delivery of a Repurchase Notice to such Optionee, to repurchase all or any portion of the Restricted Securities acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option and held by such Optionee or his, her or its Affiliates and/or permitted transferees at such time. The price per share of Restricted Security to be paid by the Company or its designees shall be the Fair Market Value of such Restricted Security (determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.2) as of the date that such Optionee’s employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries is terminated. The purchase price to be paid by the Company or its designees shall be paid, at the election of the Company, in cash or other property. The Persons purchasing the Restricted Securities pursuant to this Section 12.3(b) will be entitled to require such Optionee, his, her or its Affiliates and/or permitted transferees to provide representations and warranties regarding (i) such Person’s power, authority and legal capacity to enter into such Transfer; (ii) such Person’s valid right, title and interest in such Restricted Securities and such Person’s ownership of such Restricted Securities; (iii) the absence of any liens, pledges, and other encumbrances on such Restricted Securities; and (iv) the absence of any violation, default, or acceleration of any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such Person or the assets of such Person are bound as the result of such sale. The Company or its designees shall have the right to revoke the Repurchase Notice at any time. Should the Company or any of its designees elect to exercise the repurchase rights pursuant to this Section 12.3(b) and such Optionee, his, her or its Affiliates and/or permitted transferees fails to deliver all of such Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms hereof, the Company may, at its option, in addition to all other remedies it may have, deposit the repurchase price in an escrow account administered by an independent third party (to be held for the benefit of and payment over to such Person in accordance herewith), whereupon the Company shall by written notice to such Person (i) cancel on its books the certificates(s) representing such Restricted Securities registered in the name of the Person and (ii) issue to the purchaser, in lieu thereof, new certificate(s) representing such Restricted Securities registered in the purchaser’s name (or if the Company is the purchaser, cancel such Restricted Securities), and all of such Person’s right, title, and interest in and to such Restricted Securities shall terminate in all respects.
(c) Any Transfer in violation of Article XII shall be null and void. Any permitted transferee of Restricted Securities (other than the Company or its designee) shall, as a condition to such Transfer, agree to be bound by all of the provisions of this Section 12.3.
15
(d) The restrictions set forth in Section 12.3 shall expire and be of no further force or effect on the date the Common Stock is Publicly Traded.
ARTICLE XIII
EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN
This Plan shall become effective on the date of its adoption by the Board (the “Effective Date”); provided, however, that no ISO shall be exercisable by an Optionee unless and until the Plan shall have been approved by the shareholders of the Company in accordance with the provisions of its Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, which approval shall be obtained by a simple majority vote of shareholders, voting either in Person or by proxy, at a duly held shareholders’ meeting, or by written consent, within twelve (12) months before or after the adoption of the Plan by the Board. This Plan was adopted by the Board on June 2, 2006.
No Options may be granted after the Termination Date. Any unexercised Option outstanding as of the Termination Date shall terminate on such date.
ARTICLE XIV
AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN
The Plan may be modified or amended in any respect at any time by the Committee with the prior approval of the Board; provided, however, that the approval of the holders of a majority of the votes that may be cast by all of the holders of Common Stock (on an as-converted-basis) of the Company entitled to vote (voting together as a single class, with each such holder entitled to cast one vote per share held by such holder) shall be obtained prior to any such amendment becoming effective if such approval is required by law or is necessary to comply with regulations promulgated by the Commission under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or with Section 422 of the Code or the regulations promulgated by the Treasury Department thereunder.
ARTICLE XV
DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITIONS
If Shares acquired by exercise of an ISO granted under this Plan are disposed of within two (2) years following the date of grant of the ISO or one (1) year following the issuance of the Shares to the Optionee (or any situation in which an ISO will be taxed as a NSO) (a “Disqualifying Disposition”), the holder of such Shares shall, immediately prior to such Disqualifying Disposition, notify the Company in writing of the date and terms of such Disqualifying Disposition and provide such other information regarding the Disqualifying Disposition as the Company may reasonably require.
ARTICLE XVI
WITHHOLDING TAXES
16
Whenever, under the Plan, Shares are to be delivered to an Optionee upon exercise of an NSO (or an exercise of an ISO that will be taxed as an NSO), such Optionee shall remit or, in appropriate circumstances, agree to remit when due, an amount sufficient to satisfy all current or estimated future federal, state, local and foreign withholding tax and employment tax requirements relating thereto. The Company shall be entitled to require as a condition of delivery of Shares under the Plan that the Optionee remit or, in appropriate cases, agree to remit when due, an amount sufficient to satisfy all current or estimated future federal, state, local and foreign withholding tax and employment tax requirements relating thereto. At the time of a Disqualifying Disposition, the Optionee shall remit to the Company in cash the amount of any applicable federal, state, local and foreign withholding taxes and employment taxes.
ARTICLE XVII
FUNDING
Options issuable under this Plan will be exercisable into Shares and no special or separate reserve, fund or deposit will be established in connection herewith. No Optionee, beneficiary or other Person will have any right, title or interest in any fund or in any specific asset (including Shares) of the Company by reason of any award hereunder. Neither the provisions of this Plan (or of any related documents), nor the creation or adoption of this Plan, nor any action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Plan will create, or be construed to create, a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Optionee, beneficiary or other Person. To the extent that an Optionee, beneficiary or other Person acquires a right to receive payment pursuant to any award hereunder, such right will be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
ARTICLE XVIII
OTHER PROVISIONS
Each Option granted under the Plan may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.
ARTICLE XIX
GOVERNING LAW
All questions concerning the construction, interpretation and validity of this Plan and the instruments evidencing the Options granted hereunder shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the domestic laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will control the interpretation and construction of this Plan, even if under such jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily apply.
