The Proxy Statement, form of proxy our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2010, are available at

This Proxy Statement, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and the enclosed proxy card are being first sent or given to shareholders on or about November 24, 2011. The enclosed proxy card is solicited by the Company on behalf of our Board of Directors and will be voted at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders and any adjournments thereof.

Shareholders as of the close of business on November 4, 2011, the record date, may vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, 74,256,895 shares of common stock were outstanding and entitled to vote. Shareholders have one vote, non-cumulative, for each share of common stock held on the record date, including shares held directly in their name as “shareholder of record” and shares held in an account with a broker, bank or other nominee (shares held in “street name”). Street name holders generally cannot vote their shares directly and must instead instruct the brokerage firm, bank or nominee how to vote their shares.

This solicitation is being made by mail and may also be made in person or by fax, telephone or Internet by the Company’s officers, directors or employees. The Company will pay all expenses incurred in this solicitation. The Company will request banks, brokerage houses and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward the soliciting material to beneficial owners and to obtain authorization for the execution of proxies. The Company will, upon request, reimburse these parties for their reasonable expenses in forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.

Proposals for Shareholder Action

The matters proposed for consideration at the meeting are:

• the election of four Class I directors;

• approval of an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s capital stock from 105,000,000 shares to 115,000,000 shares, and to increase the number of shares designated as common stock from 100,000,000 shares ($.001 par value) to 110,000,000 shares ($.001 par value);

• approval of an amendment to the Company’s Assumed 2006 Stock Incentive Plan;

• ratification of the appointment of Cherry, Bekaert & Holland L.L.P. as our independent registered public accounting firm for the current fiscal year; and

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the director nominees and the other proposals.

Voting

Shareholders of record may vote:

• By Mail —To vote by mail using the enclosed proxy card, shareholders will need to complete, sign and date the proxy card and return it promptly in the envelope provided or mail it to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717. When the proxy card is properly executed, dated, and timely returned, the shares it represents will be voted in accordance with its instructions.

• By Internet —Shareholders may vote over the Internet, by going to “www.proxyvote.com.” Shareholders will need to type in the Company Number and the Account Number indicated on the proxy card and follow the instructions.

• By Telephone —Shareholders may vote over the telephone, by dialing 1-800-690-6903 in the United States or Canada from any touch-tone telephone and following the instructions. Shareholders will need the Company Number and the Account Number indicated on the proxy card.

• By Attending the Meeting in Person —Shareholders may vote by attending the meeting in person and voting. Please contact Leana Moss at 678-384-6733 or lmoss@mimedx.com in order to obtain directions to the Annual Meeting.

Internet and telephone voting facilities will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on December 13, 2011.

In addition, a large number of banks and brokerage firms participate in online programs that provide eligible beneficial owners who hold their shares in “street name” rather than as a shareholder of record, with the opportunity to vote over the Internet or by telephone. “Street name” shareholders who elected to access the proxy materials electronically over the Internet through an arrangement with their brokerage firm, bank or other nominee should receive instructions from their brokerage firm, bank or other nominee on how to access the shareholder information and voting instructions. If shareholders hold shares in “street name” and the voting instruction form received from the brokerage firm, bank or other nominee does not reference Internet or telephone information, or if you prefer to vote by mail, please complete and return the paper voting instruction form. In order to vote shares held in “street name” in person at the Annual Meeting, a proxy issued in the owner’s name must be obtained from the record holder (typically your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee) and presented at the Annual Meeting.

Shareholders of record and “street name” shareholders who vote over the Internet or by telephone need not return a proxy card or voting instruction form by mail, but may incur costs, such as usage charges, from telephone companies or Internet service providers, for which the shareholder is responsible.

If no instructions are indicated, your proxy will be voted “FOR” the election of the director nominees and the other proposals.

Other Matters

It is not anticipated that any other matters will be considered at the Annual Meeting. If, however, any other matter properly comes before the Annual Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the persons named in the proxy will vote the proxy in accordance with their best judgment on any such matter.

Revocation of Proxies

Each shareholder sending a proxy will have the power to revoke it at any time before it is exercised. The proxy may be changed or revoked before it is exercised by sending a written revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date to us at our principal offices at 60 Chastain Center Blvd., Suite 60, Kennesaw, Georgia 30144, Attention: Corporate Secretary. The proxy may also be revoked by attending the meeting and voting in person.

2

Quorum and Vote Required

The presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting and at any adjournments thereof. Directions to withhold authority to vote for directors, abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining if a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. If a quorum is not present or represented at the Annual Meeting, the chairman of the meeting or the shareholders holding a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, have the power to adjourn the meeting from time to time without notice, other than an announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present or represented. Directors, officers and employees of the Company may solicit proxies for the reconvened meeting in person or by mail, telephone or telegram. At any such reconvened meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally scheduled.

Directors are elected by the affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the shares of our capital stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock present in person or represented in proxy and entitled to vote is required to approve the other proposals.

Votes cast in person or by proxy, abstentions and broker non-votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election and will be considered in the determination of whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. The inspector of election will treat shares represented by executed proxies that abstain as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the approval of such matter and will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. If, with respect to any shares, a broker or other nominee submits a proxy card with a broker non-vote on one or more proposals, those shares will not be treated as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the approval of any such proposal.

No Appraisal Rights

No appraisal rights are available under Florida law or our Charter or bylaws if you dissent from or vote against any of the proposals presented for consideration, and we do not plan to independently provide any such right to shareholders.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

(PROPOSAL 1)

Our bylaws provide that our Board may set the number of directors at no less than three. Our Board currently consists of ten directors who are divided into three classes. At each Annual Meeting the terms of one class of directors expire and persons are elected to that class for terms of three years or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal. Our current Board members, the classes in which they serve and the expiration of their terms as directors are as set forth in the table below:

Class Designation	Directors	Term Expiration
Class I	Kurt M. Eichler Charles E. Koob Andrew K. Rooke, Jr. William C. Taylor	2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders
Class II	Joseph G. Bleser Steven Gorlin Bruce L. Hack	2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders
Class III	J. Terry Dewberry Larry W. Papasan Parker H. Petit	2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders

3

Based on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, the Board has nominated Kurt M. Eichler, Charles E. Koob, Andrew K. Rooke, Jr., and William C. Taylor for election as Class I Directors of the Company at the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The Class I Directors’ next term expires at the 2014 Annual Meeting or upon their respective successors being elected and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation, removal or termination. Mr. Taylor has agreed to resign his position if he ceases to be an officer of the Company. All nominees have consented to serve as directors if elected.

With respect to the election of directors, you may (i) vote “for” all of the nominees, or (ii) “withhold” with respect to some or all nominees. Directors are elected by the affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the shares of our capital stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. As a result, the four director nominees that receive the most votes will be elected. Broker non-votes will not be counted as votes for or against any nominee or director. In the event that any nominee should become unable or unwilling to serve as a director, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote for the election of such substitute nominee for the office of director as the Board of Directors may recommend. It is not anticipated that any nominee will become unable or unwilling to serve as a director.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF
THE NOMINEES TO SERVE AS DIRECTORS.

Set forth below is certain information regarding our director nominees and other directors who will continue serving on the Board after the Annual Meeting, including certain individual qualifications and skills of our directors that contribute to the effectiveness of our Board.

Board of Directors Leadership Structure

Our Board of Directors has carefully considered the benefits and risks in combining the role of Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer and has determined that Mr. Petit is the most qualified and appropriate individual to lead our Board of Directors as its Chairman. The Board of Directors believes there are efficiencies of having the Chief Executive Officer also serve in the role of Chairman of the Board of Directors. As our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Petit is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the Company and for the implementation of the Company’s strategy. Mr. Petit serves as a bridge between management and our Board of Directors, ensuring that both groups act with a common purpose. Our Board of Directors further noted that the combined role of Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer facilitates centralized leadership in one person so that there is no ambiguity about accountability. Our Board of Directors also considered Mr. Petit’s knowledge regarding our operations and the industries and markets in which we compete and his ability to promote communication, to synchronize activities between our Board of Directors and our senior management and to provide consistent leadership to both our Board of Directors and our Company.

In determining whether to combine the roles of Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, our Board of Directors closely considered our current system for ensuring significant independent oversight of management, including the following: (1) only three members of our Board of Directors, Mr. Petit, Mr. Taylor and Mr. Gorlin, also serve as employees; (2) each director serving on our Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is independent and (3) the Compensation Committee annually evaluates the Chief Executive Officer’s performance and has the authority to retain independent compensation advisors.

The Board of Directors has not designated a lead independent director.

Director Independence

We are not a “listed company” under SEC rules and are therefore not required to comply with the director independence requirements of any securities exchange. However, in determining whether our directors are independent, we apply the standards set forth in the rules of the NYSE Amex. The Company qualifies as a “smaller reporting company” as that term is defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K because its public float as of the last business day of the Company’s most recent second fiscal quarter was less than $75.0 million. As a result, the rules of the NYSE Amex require that at least 50% of the members of our Board of Directors be independent, which means that they are not officers of the Company and are free of any relationship that would interfere with the exercise of their independent judgment. The Board of Directors has determined that six of its ten directors, Larry W. Papasan, Kurt M. Eichler, J. Terry Dewberry, Joseph Bleser, Andrew K. “Kreamer” Rooke, Jr. and Bruce L. Hack are “independent,” as defined by the listing standards of the NYSE Amex, Section 10A(m)(3) of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Board of Directors Risk Oversight

The Board as a whole is responsible for overseeing the Company’s risk exposure as part of determining a business strategy that generates long-term shareholder value. Each of the Board’s standing committees focuses on risk areas associated with its area of responsibility.

Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

During the year ended December 31, 2010, there were 11 meetings of the Board of Directors, 8 of which were telephonic meetings. Each incumbent director attended at least 75% of the aggregate total number of the meetings of the Board of Directors during the year ended December 31, 2010, and the meetings of the Board of Directors committees on which he served during that fiscal year.

8

In addition to other single purpose committees established from time to time to assist the Board of Directors with particular tasks, the Company’s Board of Directors has the following standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and a Compensation Committee.

We strongly encourage each of our directors to attend in person each annual meeting of shareholders whenever attendance does not unreasonably conflict with the director’s other business and personal commitments six of our nine then-current directors attended our Annual meeting of Shareholders.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

We are not a “listed company” under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors. However, our goal is to comply with the rules of the NYSE Amex, which require that as a “smaller reporting company,” as that term is defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors be comprised of at least two members, all of whom qualify as “independent” under the criteria set forth in Rule 10 A-3 of the Exchange Act.

We established an Audit Committee comprised of three independent members of our Board of Directors in April 2008. We currently have three members on our Audit Committee; J. Terry Dewberry (Chairman), Joseph G. Bleser, and Larry W. Papasan, each of whom satisfies the independence standards of the NYSE Amex rules. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Dewberry is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-K. The current charter for the Audit Committee is posted on our website atwww.mimedx.com.

As part of its duties, the Audit Committee:

• Oversees the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company and the audits of the Company’s financial statements;

• Reviews the Company’s financial statements with management and the Company’s outside auditors, and recommends to the Board of Directors whether the audited financial statements should be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K;

• Establishes policies and procedures to take, or recommends that the full Board of Directors take, appropriate action to oversee the independence of the outside auditors;

• Establishes policies and procedures for the engagement of the outside auditors to provide permitted non-audit services;

• Takes responsibility for the appointment, compensation, retention, and oversight of the work of the Company’s outside auditors and recommends their selection and engagement;

• Ensures that the outside auditors report directly to the Audit Committee;

• Reviews the performance of the outside auditors and takes direct responsibility for hiring and, if appropriate, replacing any outside auditor failing to perform satisfactorily;

• Provides, as part of any proxy filed pursuant to SEC regulations, the report required by SEC regulations; and

• Establishes procedures for handling complaints received by the Company regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters.

9

The Audit Committee held seven meetings during the year ended December 31, 2010.

Compensation Committee

We established our Compensation Committee in April 2008. Currently, its membership consists of Mr. Eichler, who serves as the Committee Chairman, Messrs. Papasan and Bleser. The Compensation Committee held four  meetings during the year ended December 31, 2010. All members of the Compensation Committee meet the independence standards of the NYSE Amex rules. Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing the Company’s overall compensation philosophy and programs and exercising the authority of the Board of Directors in the administration of all compensation plans and programs. The Compensation Committee also is charged with reviewing the performance of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, reviewing and approving compensation arrangements for and contractual arrangements with the Company’s executive officers, and reviewing and recommending to the full Board of Directors for approval contractual incentive and equity-based compensation plans and directors’ compensation. The Compensation Committee is authorized to delegate responsibilities to sub-committies of the Compensation Committee as necessary or appropriate. The current charter for the Compensation Committee is posted on our website atwww.mimedx.com. The Committee establishes compensation for executive officers and directors based on peer data, the Company’s resources and, with respect to executive officers, the qualifications and experience of the executive. With respect to compensation of executive officers other than the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the Committee considers recommendations of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; Procedures by which Security Holders May Recommend Nominees to the BoardofDirectors

We established our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in April 2008. Its membership currently consists of Mr. Papasan, who serves as the Committee Chairman, Messrs. Eichler, Dewberry and Bleser. The charter for this Committee requires that it annually present to the Board of Directors a list of individuals, who meet the criteria for Board of Directors membership, recommended for nomination for election to the Board of Directors at the annual meeting of shareholders and also consider suggestions received from shareholders regarding director nominees in accordance with any procedures adopted from time to time by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. All of the Committee members meet the independence requirements of the NYSE Amex rules. The charter for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is posted on our website atwww.mimedx.com. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held one meeting during the year ended December 31, 2010.

No material changes have been made to the procedures by which our shareholders may recommend nominees to our Board of Directors since we last described these procedures in the Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on July 29, 2008. However our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee adopted a formal policy consistent with those procedures and our bylaws in March 2010.

Evaluation of Director Candidates

In evaluating and recommending director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee takes into consideration such factors as it deems appropriate based on current needs. These factors may include leadership skills, business judgment, relevant expertise and experience, whether the candidate has a general understanding of marketing, finance, and other disciplines relevant to the success of a publicly-traded company in today’s business environment, relevant regulatory experience, decision-making ability, interpersonal skills, community activities and relationships, and the interrelationship between the candidate’s experience and business background and other Board members’ experience and business background, as well as the candidate’s ability to devote the required time and effort to serving on the Board of Directors.

To date, nominees for appointment and election to our Board of Directors have been selected pursuant to an informal process. Each person selected has been personally known to one or more members of the Board of Directors or to our executive team, and has been nominated based upon a recommendation made to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or the Board of Directors (prior to formation of that Committee). The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has not established a policy for consideration of diversity in its nominating process.

10

In accordance with our bylaws, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider for nomination candidates recommended by shareholders if the shareholders comply with the following requirements. If a shareholder wishes to recommend a director candidate to the Board of Directors for consideration as a nominee to the Board of Directors, such shareholder must submit in writing to the Secretary of the Company:

• the name, age and address of each proposed nominee;

• the principal occupation of each proposed nominee;

• the nominee’s qualifications to serve as a director;

• such other information relating to such nominee as required to be disclosed in solicitation of proxies for the election of directors pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC;

• the name and residence address of the notifying shareholder; and

• the number of shares owned by the notifying shareholder, and

• the nominee’s written consent to being named a nominee and serving as a director if elected.

This information must be delivered or mailed to the Secretary of the Company: (a) in the case of an annual meeting of shareholders that is called for a date that is within 30 days before or after the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of shareholders, not less than 120 days prior to such anniversary date; and (b) in the case of an annual meeting of shareholders that is called for a date that is not within 30 days before or after the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of shareholders, or in the case of a special meeting of shareholders, not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which the notice of meeting is mailed or public disclosure of the date of the meeting is made, whichever occurs first.

A shareholder making any proposal shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act.

Candidates properly submitted for consideration by shareholders will receive the same consideration as candidates presented by other persons. Nominations or proposals not made in accordance herewith may be disregarded by the chairman of the meeting in his discretion, and upon his instructions all votes cast for each such nominee or for such proposal may be disregarded.

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table

We have no employment agreements with any of our Named Executive Officers. On November 11, 2011, the Company entered into Change in Control Agreements with each of the Named Executive Officers that provide for certain severance benefits payable to the executives in the event of termination of their employment under certain circumstances following a change in control of the Company. For a more detailed discussion of these agreements, see “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” below. The Named Executive Officers also are eligible for awards under the MiMedx Group, Inc. Assumed Stock Incentive Plan, which is described in more detail below under the heading “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End.”

The material terms of our compensation arrangements with each of our Named Executive Officers are described below:

Assumed 2006 Stock Incentive Plan.” The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. See “Approval of Amendment of Assumed 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (Proposal 2)” below for additional information regarding the Plan.

Assumption of the SpineMedica Corp. Stock Option Plans

Each stock option to purchase shares of SpineMedica Corp.’s common stock (each a “SpineMedica Stock Option”) that was outstanding immediately prior to the acquisition of SpineMedica Corp., whether or not then vested or exercisable (each, an “Assumed Option”), as adjusted, was assumed by MiMedx, Inc. when it acquired SpineMedica Corp., by Alynx, Co. upon consummation of the Merger, and thereafter by MiMedx Group, Inc.

MiMedx, Inc. 2005 Assumed Stock Plan (formerly the SpineMedica Corp. 2005 Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Plan)

MiMedx, Inc. assumed the SpineMedica Corp. 2005 Employee, Director, and Consultant Stock Plan (the “2005 Assumed Plan”) in connection with its acquisition of SpineMedica Corp. in July 2007. Following MiMedx, Inc.’s acquisition of SpineMedica Corp., the Board of Directors of MiMedx, Inc. declared that no awards (as defined in the 2005 Assumed Plan) would be issued under the 2005 Assumed Plan. The 2005 Assumed Plan was assumed by Alynx, Co. in the Merger and thereafter by MiMedx Group, Inc. The 2005 Assumed Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. All share amounts in this section represent numbers of shares of MiMedx Group, Inc. common stock. As of December 31, 2010, options to acquire 841,250 shares are outstanding under the 2005 Assumed Plan.

MiMedx, Inc. Assumed 2007 Stock Plan (formerly the SpineMedica Corp. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan)

As of December 31, 2010, options to acquire 95,000 shares are outstanding under the 2007 Assumed Plan.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

The Company has entered into change-in-control severance agreements with each of the Named Executive Officers. The agreements provide for compensation to the executive in the event the executive’s employment with the Company is terminated following the consummation of a “change-in-control” for reasons other than the executive’s death, disability or for “Cause” (as defined in the respective agreements), or if the executive voluntarily terminates employment for “Good Reason” (as defined in the respective agreements). The compensation payable under the agreements is a lump sum severance payment equal to a multiple of the executive’s annual base salary and targeted base bonus as of the date of the change-in-control. The multiple applicable to Mr. Petit is three. The multiple applicable to Mr. Taylor is one and a half and the multiple applicable to Mr. Senken is one. In addition, following termination of employment, the executives are entitled to receive for a period of three years in the case of Mr. Petit, 18 months in the case of Mr. Taylor and one year in the case of Mr. Senken life, health insurance coverage (subject to a COBRA election), and certain other fringe benefits equivalent to those in effect at the date of termination and will be entitled to receive additional amounts, if any, relating to any excise taxes imposed on the executive as a result of Section 280G of the Code. The agreements require the executive to comply with certain covenants that preclude the executive from competing with the Company or soliciting customers or employees of the Company for a period following termination of employment equal to the period for which fringe benefits are continued under the applicable agreement. The agreements expire three years after a change in control of the Company or any successor to the Company.

16

Upon a “change in control,” as defined in the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan and subject to any requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the (“Code”), all outstanding awards vest and become exercisable.

Upon a Corporate Transaction (as defined in the 2005 Assumed Plan) and subject to any Code Section 409A requirements, with respect to outstanding options the administrator (currently the Compensation Committee) shall (i) make appropriate provision for the continuation of such options by substituting on an equitable basis for the shares then subject to such options either the consideration payable with respect to the outstanding shares of common stock in connection with the Corporate Transaction or securities of any successor or acquiring entity, or (ii) upon written notice to the participants, provide that all options must be exercised, within a specified number of days of the date of such notice, at the end of which period the options shall terminate, or (iii) terminate all options in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares subject to such options over the exercise price thereof. With respect to outstanding stock grants, the administrator shall either (i) make appropriate provisions for the continuation of such stock grants by substituting on an equitable basis for the shares then subject to such stock grants either the consideration payable with respect to the outstanding shares of common stock in connection with the Corporate Transaction or securities of any successor or acquiring entity, or (ii) upon written notice to the participants, provide that all stock grants must be accepted (to the extent then subject to acceptance) within a specified number of days of the date of such notice, at the end of which period the offer of the stock grants shall terminate, or (iii) terminate all stock grants in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares subject to such stock grants over the purchase price thereof, if any. In addition, in the event of a Corporate Transaction, the administrator may waive any or all Company repurchase rights with respect to outstanding stock grants.

Upon a “change in control,” as defined in the 2007 Assumed Plan and subject to any Code Section 409A requirements, all options and SARs outstanding as of the date of such change in control shall become fully exercisable, whether or not then otherwise exercisable. Any restrictions, performance criteria and/or vesting conditions applicable to any restricted award shall be deemed to have been met, and such awards shall become fully vested, earned and payable to the fullest extent of the original grant of the applicable award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a merger, share exchange, reorganization, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the administrator (currently the Compensation Committee) may, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine that any or all awards granted pursuant to the 2007 Assumed Plan shall not vest or become exercisable on an accelerated basis, if the Company or the surviving or acquiring corporation shall have taken such action, including but not limited to the assumption of awards granted under the 2007 Assumed Plan or the grant of substitute awards, as the administrator determines appropriate to protect the rights and interest of participants under the 2007 Assumed Plan.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Policies and Procedures for Approval of Related Party Transactions

Under its charter, our Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving all transactions or arrangements between the Company and any of our directors, officers, principal shareholders or any of their respective affiliates, associates or related parties. In determining whether to approve or ratify a related party transaction, the Audit Committee considers all relevant facts and circumstances available to it, such as:

• whether the terms of the transaction are fair to the Company and at least as favorable to the Company as would apply if the transaction did not involve a related party;

• whether there are demonstrable business reasons for the Company to enter into the transaction;

• whether the transaction would impair the independence of an outside director; and

• whether the transaction would present an improper conflict of interest for any director or executive officer, taking into account the size of the transaction, the direct or indirect nature of the related party’s interest in the transaction and the ongoing nature of any proposed relationship, and any other factors the Audit Committee deems relevant.

Transactions

2011

On March 31, 2011, the Company and Mr. Petit, its Chairman of the Board and CEO, entered into a Subscription Agreement for a 5% Convertible Senior Secured Promissory Note and, in connection therewith, the Company agreed to issue a 5% Convertible Senior Secured Promissory Note (“Line of Credit Note���) in the amount borrowed by the Company, and certain contingent warrants to purchase common stock per the terms described below. The Line of Credit Note was issued pursuant to a Revolving Secured Line of Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) pursuant to which Mr. Petit committed to lend the Company up to $3,600,000 to fund its working capital needs. Per the agreement, the commitment was reduced based on the amount of cash on the Company’s balance sheet as of March 31, 2011, and the amount of funds raised through other financing activities beginning on April 1, 2011. The first borrowing in the amount of $800,000 was on March 31, 2011, resulting in the issuance of 400,000 contingent warrants at an exercise price of $0.01 per warrant. Additional borrowings in the amount of $500,000 were drawn during the three months ended June 30, 2011, resulting in the issuance of 250,000 contingent warrants at an exercise price of $0.01 per warrant.

Since April 1, 2011, the Company raised approximately $2,545,000 through a private placement. Based upon the amount borrowed under the Credit Agreement and the amount raised through the private placement, there is no additional credit available under the Credit Agreement. The Company may repay and reborrow the funds advanced under the Line of Credit Note, provided there is no event of default. The initial termination date of the Credit Agreement is December 31, 2012, and the Company may elect to extend the termination date until December 31, 2013, upon payment of an extension fee. Each borrowing bears interest on the outstanding principal at a rate per annum equal to 5%. Collateral for the Credit Agreement includes (i) all of the Company’s intellectual property with the exception of intellectual property owned by Surgical Biologics, LLC, and (ii) all accessions to, substitutions for and replacements, products and proceeds thereof, as more particularly set forth in the Security and Intercreditor Agreement.

At the option of the holder, the Note is convertible into the number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to the quotient of the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest of the Note as of the date of such election divided by $1.00 per share.

With each advance under the Line of Credit Note, the Company was obligated to issue contingent warrants as follows:

First Contingent Warrant — upon borrowing under the Line of Credit Note, the Company was required to issue to Mr. Petit a warrant to purchase 25% of the shares of common ctock that would be issuable upon conversion of the outstanding principal balance of the Line of Credit Note immediately after borrowing, less the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock subject to all first contingent warrants previously issued to Mr. Petit, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share;

Second Contingent Warrant — upon borrowing under the Line of Credit Note, the Company was required to issue to Mr. Petit an additional warrant to purchase 25% of the shares of common stock that would be issuable upon conversion of the outstanding principal balance of the Line of Credit Note immediately after borrowing, less the aggregate number of shares of common stock subject to all second contingent warrants previously issued Mr. Petit, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share;

As of September 30, 2011, the Company has issued 650,000 warrants under the Credit Agreement based on borrowings of $1,300,000 under the agreement. The issuance of the aforementioned securities was not registered in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The contingencies applicable to the exercise of the warrants are the same as for the contingent warrants issued in the October 2010 Private Placement as described below.

On October 25, 2011, the Company’s Chairman and CEO signed a loan commitment whereby the CEO will provide the Company a line of credit of up to $1,500,000 less any amounts subscribed for by any other lenders. The terms of the line of credit will be substantially the same as the terms applicable to the Line of Credit Notes referenced above except that the Company’s stock price will not affect the exercisability of the first contingent warrants and the collateral for the line of credit will include the intellectual property owned by Surgical Biologics, LLC, when the current lien on those assets is released. The terms of the line of credit are subject to additional changes as may be approved by the Board of Directors or certain officers designated by the Board in order to attract investors. On October 26 and November 1, 2011, Mr. Petit advanced the Company $100,000 and $200,000, respectively, towards the commitment. Warrants have not yet issued, pending finalization of the terms.

2010

On March 31, 2010, the Company elected to exercise its right to convert the outstanding note payable amount from its 3% Convertible Senior Secured Promissory Notes (the “Senior Notes”), including accrued interest of $3,532,361, into common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.50 per share, resulting in the issuance of 7,064,721 shares of common stock. As a result of the Company’s election to convert the Senior Notes, Parker H. Petit, our Chairman of the Board of Directors and CEO, received 514,703 shares of MiMedx common stock resulting from the conversion of a $250,000 note payable and $7,352 in accrued interest, Charles E. Koob, a Company Director, received 308,821 shares of MiMedx common stock resulting from the conversion of a $150,000 note payable and $4,411 in accrued interest and Roberta L McCaw, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, received 205,174 shares of MiMedx common stock resulting from the conversion of a $100,000 note payable and $2,587 in accrued interest, representing the amount of their original investment plus accrued interest divided by the conversion rate of $.50 per share.

In October 2010, the Company commenced a private placement (the “October 2010 Private Placement”) to sell common stock and warrants. From October 30, 2010 to December 31, 2010, the Company sold 2,405,000 shares of common stock at a price of $1.00 per share and issued 1,168,510 warrants and received net proceeds of approximately $2,337,020. From January 1, 2011 to September 30, 2011, the Company sold an additional 3,778,321 shares of Common Stock and received net cash proceeds of approximately $3,744,000. Under the terms of the offering, for every two shares of common stock purchased, the holder received a five year callable warrant to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The callable warrant is callable by the Company at any time if the closing sale price of the common stock exceeds $1.75 for 15 or more consecutive trading days. Upon written notice, the Company may redeem the callable warrant at a price of $0.01 per share.

22

Contingent warrants also were issued to each investor in the October 2010 Private Placement. The first contingent warrant to purchase 25% of the number of shares of common stock purchased in the offering, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, is only exercisable if the Company’s Gross Revenues as reported in the Company’s Audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, do not equal or exceed $11,500,000 and further provided that the Warrant is null and void in the event that prior to issuance of such Audited Financial Statements the closing trading price of the common stock is at least $1.50 per share for ten or more consecutive trading days.

The second contingent warrant to purchase 25% of the number of shares of common stock purchased in the offering, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, is only exercisable if the Company’s Gross Revenues as reported in the Company’s Audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, do not equal or exceed $31,150,000 and further provided that such Warrant is null and void in the event that prior to issuance of such Audited Financial Statements the closing trading price of the common stock is at least $1.75 per share for ten or more consecutive trading days.

Through September 30, 2011, Mr. Petit purchased 600,000 shares of our common stock and received 300,000 warrants for total consideration of $600,000 under the terms of the October 2010 Private Placement.

In October 2010, the following related parties provided bridge financing pending the closing of sales of securities in the October 2010 Private Placement, Mr. Petit, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, advanced the Company $150,000, Mr. Koob, a Company director, advanced the Company $50,000 and Kurt M. Eichler, a Company director, advanced the Company $50,000 through Subscription Agreements for 5% Convertible Promissory Note (“Subscription Agreement”) and, in connection therewith, were issued 5% Convertible Promissory Notes (“Notes”) and a Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (“Warrant”), which expires three years from the date of issuance. The Notes were convertible into common stock and warrants on the same terms as was offered to investors in the October 2010 Private Placement. In November 2010, Mr. Petit advanced an additional $250,000 under the same terms.

In connection with the Subscription Agreements and the Notes, the Company issued one Warrant for the number of shares of common stock of the Company computed by dividing the aggregate amount of the advances by the conversion price, resulting in the issuance of 500,000 Warrants to purchase MiMedx common stock at an exercise price of $1.00. As a result of these advances Mr. Petit received a total of 400,000 Warrants, which resulted in an additional interest charge recorded by the Company of $228,675, representing the intrinsic value of the conversion option allocated to the Warrants issued, Mr. Koob received a total of 50,000 Warrants, which resulted in an additional interest charge recorded by the Company of $28,413, representing the intrinsic value of the conversion option allocated to the Warrants issued and Mr. Eichler received 50,000 Warrants, which resulted in an additional interest charge recorded by the Company of $30,358.

On December 31, 2010, Messrs. Koob and Eichler elected to convert their Notes into securities of the Company on the terms of the October 2010 Private Placement. Mr. Koob received 50,486 shares of MiMedx common stock resulting from the conversion of $50,000 of principal and $486 in accrued interest and Mr. Eichler received 50,493 shares of MiMedx common stock resulting from the conversion of $50,000 of principal and $493 in accrued interest. By virtue of this conversion, Mr. Koob also received 25,243 callable warrants and 25,243 contingent warrants. Mr. Eichler received 25,247 callable warrants and 25,247 contingent warrants. Mr. Petit agreed to extend the term of his Notes until February 28, 2011, at which time he exercised the conversion option. As a result of the election, Mr. Petit received 406,664 shares of MiMedx common stock resulting from the conversion of two Notes with a total face value of $400,000 and accrued interest of $6,664, 203,332 callable warrants and 203,332 contingent warrants.

2009

In April 2009, the Company commenced a private placement to sell 3% Convertible Senior Secured Promissory Notes (the “Senior Notes”) to accredited investors. The Company completed the offering on June 17, 2009, and received aggregate proceeds of $3,472,000, representing the face value of the Senior Notes. The aggregate proceeds include $250,000 of Senior Notes sold to Parker H. Petit, our Chairman of the Board of Directors, and CEO, $150,000 of Senior Notes sold to Charles E. Koob, one of our directors, and $100,000 of Senior Notes to Roberta L. McCaw, who later became our General Counsel and Corporate Secretary.

The Senior Notes were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $.50 per share (a) at any time upon the election of the holder of the Senior Notes; (b) automatically immediately prior to the closing of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets or more than 50% of the equity securities of the Company by way of a merger transaction or otherwise which would yield a price per share of not less than $.50; or (c) at the election of the Company, at such time as the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock (as reported by the OTCBB or on any national securities exchange on which the Company’s shares may be listed) is not less than $1.50 for at least 20 consecutive trading days in any period prior to the maturity date. The Senior Notes matured in three years and earned interest at 3% per annum on the outstanding principal amount payable in cash on the maturity date or convertible into shares of common stock of the Company as provided for above. The Senior Notes were secured by a first priority lien on all of the assets, including intellectual property, of MiMedx, Inc., excluding, however, the membership interests in SpineMedica, LLC. The Senior Notes were junior in payment and lien priority to any bank debt subsequently incurred by the Company in an amount not to exceed $5,000,000. As of December 31, 2009, no Senior Notes had been converted, no principal payments had been made, no interest had been paid, and aggregate accrued interest payable to our executives related to their investments approximated $10,500. As noted above, Senior Notes were converted in March 2010.

On June 4, 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors agreed to issue additional shares of its common stock to investors who had purchased shares of its common stock in conjunction with its September 2008 Private Placement, its November 2008 Private Placement and its February 2009 Private Placement in order to bring the cost of the acquired shares to $.50 per share. The Board of Directors approved the issuance of the additional shares to be fair to the investors who had invested in the Company when it was most in need of funding and to enable the Company’s future fundraising efforts. The issuance was approved by all of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors. As a condition to the receipt of the additional shares, the investors were required to waive registration rights otherwise available with respect to the shares issued in the private placements. The Company issued 2,490,000 additional shares as a result of this action and recorded additional expense of $1,305,100, based on the fair value of the Company’s stock price on the date each respective waiver was executed. Of this amount Mr. Petit received 1,755,000 additional shares and Mr. Koob received 100,000 additional shares.

In October 2009, Mr. Petit completed an advance of $500,000 to fund the Company’s working capital evidenced by a 5% Convertible Promissory Note (the “Bridge Note”). The Bridge Note was due and payable in full on December 20, 2009, and, at the option of the holder, was convertible into the number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest on the Bridge Note divided by $.60 per share. Additionally, under the terms of the Bridge Note, the Company issued 1,666,666 warrants to Mr. Petit with an exercise price of $.60 per share and a fair value of $975,833 on the date of repayment. The warrants expire in September 2012. The outstanding principal and accrued interest of approximately $505,000 was repaid in December 2009.

In October 2009, the Company commenced a private placement to sell common stock and warrants. From October 30, 2009, through December 31, 2009, the Company sold 7,697,865 shares of common stock at a price of $.60 per share and received proceeds of $4,618,720. Under the terms of the offering, for every two shares of common stock purchased, the investor received a 5-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock for $1.50. Through December 31, 2009, the Company issued a total of 3,848,933 warrants. Mr. Petit, purchased 1,666,666 shares of our common stock and received 833,333 warrants for total consideration of $1,000,000. Additionally two entities in which Mr. Petit has a beneficial interest each purchased 100,000 shares of our common stock and received 50,000 warrants for total consideration of $60,000.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s executive officers and directors, and any beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file reports (Forms 3, 4 and 5) of stock ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and beneficial owners of more than ten percent of the common stock are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all such forms that they file.

Based solely on the Company’s review of the copies of Forms 3, 4, and 5 the Company believes that during the year ended December 31, 2010, all filing requirements were complied with by its executive officers, directors and beneficial owners of more than ten percent of the common stock, with the exception that Mr. Gorlin may be late in filing a Form 4 for shares that were transferred in connection with the settlement of a dispute.

AMENDMENT OF THE COMPANY’S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK

(PROPOSAL 2)

Shareholders are being asked to approve an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s capital stock from 105,000,000 shares to 115,000,000 shares, and to increase the number of shares designated as common stock from 100,000,000 shares ($.001 par value) to 110,000,000 shares ($.001 par value). By Unanimous Consent dated as of November 10, 2011, the Board of Directors approved this amendment, subject to shareholder approval, and directed that this amendment be submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The Board has determined that this amendment is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and recommends approval by the shareholders.

The Articles currently authorize the issuance of up to 105,000,000 shares of capital stock of which 100,000,000 shares are designated as common stock ($.001 par value) and 5,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock ($.001 par value). As of the close of business on November 10, 2011, 74,256,895 shares of common stock were outstanding. In addition, as of the close of business on November 10, 2011, the Company had 13,416,250 shares of common stock subject to outstanding stock options, 140,000 shares reserved for issuance pursuant to future grants under the Company’s current stock incentive plans, and 12,091,899 shares of common stock subject to outstanding warrants. No preferred stock has been issued or is outstanding. The proposed amendment will not increase or otherwise affect the Company’s authorized preferred stock.

The additional common stock to be authorized by adoption of the proposed amendment would have rights identical to the currently outstanding common stock of the Company. Adoption of the proposed amendment and issuance of the additional common stock would not affect the rights of the holders of currently outstanding common stock of the Company, except for effects incidental to increasing the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding, such as dilution of the voting rights of current holders of common stock. If the amendment is adopted, it will become effective upon filing of a Certificate of Amendment of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida.

Purpose of Amendment

The Board believes it is in the best interest of the Company to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock in order to give the Company greater flexibility in considering and planning for future potential business needs. The additional shares may be used for various purposes without further stockholder approval, subject to applicable laws and applicable listing requirements that may require stockholder approval for certain issuances of additional shares.

The Company has no current plan, commitment, arrangement, understanding or agreement regarding the issuance of the additional authorized shares of common stock resulting from the increase proposed herein. The additional shares of common stock will be available for issuance by the Board for various corporate purposes, including but not limited to, financings, potential strategic transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, divestitures, and business combinations, stock splits, stock dividends, grants under employee stock incentive plans, as well as other general corporate transactions..

Having this additional authorized common stock available for future use will allow the Company to issue additional shares of common stock without the expense and delay of arranging a special meeting of shareholders.

Possible Effects of the Amendment and Additional Anti-takeover Consideration

The additional shares of common stock that would become available for issuance if the proposal is adopted could also be used by the Company to oppose a hostile takeover attempt or to delay or prevent changes in control or management of the Company. For example, without further stockholder approval, the Board of Directors could strategically sell shares of common stock in a private transaction to purchasers who would oppose a takeover or favor the current Board of Directors. Although this proposal to increase the authorized common stock has been prompted by business and financial considerations and not by the threat of any hostile takeover attempt (nor is the Board of Directors currently aware of any such attempts directed at the Company), stockholders should be aware that approval of the proposal could facilitate future efforts by the Company to deter or prevent changes in control of the Company, including transactions in which the stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current market prices.  

If the Company’s shareholders approve the Proposal, the Board will have authority to file with the Secretary of State of Florida an amendment to the Company’s Articles to authorize an additional 10,000,000 shares of capital stock, all of which shall be designated as common stock ($.001 par value). Upon approval and following such filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida, the amendment will become effective on the date it is filed. The amendment proposed by the Company to the Articles (assuming approval of this Proposal 2) is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A.

Neither Florida law, the Company’s Articles, nor the Company’s amended and restated bylaws provides for appraisal or other similar rights for dissenting shareholders in connection with this proposal. Accordingly, the Company’s shareholders will have no right to dissent and obtain payment for their shares.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTEFORTHE
AMENDMENT OF THE COMPANY’S ARTICLES
TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO ASSUMED 2006 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

(PROPOSAL 3)

The Board of Directors has approved and recommends that the shareholders of the Company ratify and approve the amendment of the Company’s Assumed 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock that may be issued under the Plan from 8,500,000 to 12,500,000 shares. A copy of the Plan, as amended, is attached as Appendix B. Approval of the amendment of the Plan by the shareholders is intended, among other things, to qualify options, stock grants and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) granted under the plan as “performance-based compensation,” which is not subject to the limits on deductibility of Section 162(m) of the Code, described further below, and to enable the Company to grant incentive stock options (“ISOs”) under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The Plan was adopted by a predecessor organization effective November 27, 2006. The purpose of the Plan is to encourage and enable selected employees, directors, and independent contractors of the Company and its affiliates to acquire or increase their holdings of common stock and other equity-based interests in the Company in order to promote a closer identification of their interests with ours, thereby stimulating their efforts to enhance our efficiency, soundness, profitability, growth and shareholder value. Persons eligible to participate in the Plan are such employees, officers, directors, independent contractors and consultants of the Company or one of its subsidiaries (or future parent companies) as the administrator of the Plan in its discretion, shall designate from time to time. As of October 15, 2011, the Company employed approximately 49 full-time personnel.

Summary of the Plan

Shares Available for Issuance under the Plan

Of the 8,500,000 shares previously authorized by the shareholders to be issued under the Plan, as of December 31, 2010, 8,257,650 shares were subject to outstanding options, and 242,350 shares remained available for future issuance. On March 31, 2011, the Board amended the Plan to provide that an additional 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued pursuant to the Plan and on August 3, 2011, further amended the Plan to provide that an additional 3, 000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued pursuant to the Plan. The aggregate 4,000,000 additional shares represent approximately 5 % of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2011.

25

Of the shares available for issuance under the Plan, the maximum that we may issue pursuant to incentive stock options is 12,500,000. In addition, if and to the extent that Section 162(m) of the Code is applicable:

• we may not grant to any participant options or SARs that are not related to an option for more than 1,000,000 shares of common stock in any calendar year;

• we may not grant to any participant awards for more than1,000,000 shares of common stock in any calendar year; and

• participants may not be paid more than $2,000,000 with respect to any cash-settled award granted in any calendar year, subject in each case to adjustments as provided in the Plan.

The following will not be included in calculating the share limitations set forth above:

• dividends;

• awards which by their terms are settled in cash rather than the issuance of shares;

• shares subject to an award that are repurchased or reacquired by us; and

• any shares a participant surrenders or we withhold to pay the option or purchase price for an award or use to satisfy any tax withholding requirement in connection with the exercise, vesting, or earning of an award.

We will further adjust the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan and the terms of awards in the event of an adjustment to the capital stock structure of the Company or one of our affiliates due to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, stock split, stock dividend or similar event.

Administration, Amendment and Termination

Currently, our Compensation Committee administers the Plan. In this discussion, we refer to our Compensation Committee as the “administrator.” Subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Plan, the administrator has full and final authority to take actions and make determinations with respect to the Plan.

Subject to certain terms and conditions, the administrator may delegate to one or more of our officers the authority to grant awards, and to make determinations otherwise reserved for the administrator with respect to such awards.

Our Board of Directors may amend, alter, or terminate the Plan at any time, subject to certain exceptions and restrictions set forth in the Plan. Our Board of Directors may also amend, alter, or terminate any award, although participant consent may be required.

The administrator may amend the Plan and any award, without participant consent and, except where required by applicable laws, without shareholder approval, in order to comply with applicable laws. In addition, the administrator may make adjustments to awards upon the occurrence of certain unusual or nonrecurring events. The administrator may (subject to certain Plan limitations) cause any award or any portion thereof to be cancelled in consideration of an alternative award or cash payment of an equivalent cash value. The administrator also may determine that a participant’s rights, payments, and/or benefits with respect to an award will be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture, or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events. Except to the extent otherwise required under Code Section 409A, the administrator also may modify or extend the terms and conditions for exercise, vesting, or earning of an award and/or accelerate the date that any award may become exercisable, vested, or earned, without any obligation to accelerate any other award.

26

Options

The Plan authorizes the grant of both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options. The administrator will determine the option price at which a participant may exercise an option. The option price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant (or 110% of the fair market value with respect to incentive stock options granted to a 10% or more shareholder) and also may not be less than the par value per share (subject to certain exceptions in the case of substitute or assumed options).

Unless an individual award agreement provides otherwise, a participant may pay the option price in cash or, to the extent permitted by the administrator and applicable laws, by tendering shares of common stock, by the withholding of shares upon exercise, by such other consideration as the administrator may deem appropriate, or a combination of the foregoing.

At the time of option grant, the administrator will determine the terms and conditions of an option, the period or periods during which an option is exercisable, and the option term (which, in the case of incentive stock options, may not exceed ten years, or five years with respect to a 10% or more shareholder). Options are also subject to certain restrictions on exercise if the participant terminates employment or service.

Stock Appreciation Rights

Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the administrator may in its sole discretion grant SARs to such eligible individuals, in such numbers, upon such terms and at such times as the administrator shall determine. SARs may be granted to the holder of an option (a “related option”) with respect to all or a portion of the shares of common stock subject to the related option (a “related SAR”) or may be granted separately to an eligible individual (a “freestanding SAR”). The consideration to be received by the holder of an SAR may be paid in cash, shares of common stock (valued at fair market value on the date of the SAR exercise), or a combination thereof, as determined by the administrator. Upon the exercise of an SAR, the holder of an SAR is entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying (i) the difference between the fair market value per share of common stock on the date of exercise over the base price per share of such SAR by (ii) the number of shares of common stock with respect to which the SAR is being exercised. The base price may be no less than 100% of the fair market value per share of common stock on the date the SAR is granted (except in the case of certain substituted or assumed SARs in a merger or similar transaction).

SARs are exercisable according to the terms established by the administrator and stated in the applicable award agreement. Upon the exercise of a related SAR, the related option is deemed to be canceled to the extent of the number of shares of common stock for which the related SAR is exercised. No SAR may be exercised more than 10 years after it was granted, or such shorter period as may apply to with respect to a particular SAR. Each award agreement will state the extent to which a holder may have the right to exercise an SAR following termination of the holder’s employment or service with the Company or an affiliate, as determined by the administrator.

Restricted Awards

Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the administrator may grant restricted awards to such individuals in such numbers, upon such terms, and at such times as the administrator shall determine. Restricted awards may be in the form of restricted stock awards and/or restricted stock units that are subject to certain conditions which must be met for the restricted award to vest and be earned, in whole or in part, and be no longer subject to forfeiture. Restricted stock awards may be payable in common stock. Restricted stock units may be payable in cash or common stock, or a combination thereof.

27

Subject to certain limitations in the Plan, the administrator will determine the restriction period during which a participant may earn a restricted award and the conditions to be met in order for it to be granted or to vest or be earned. These conditions may include:

• payment of a stipulated purchase price;

• attainment of performance objectives;

• continued service or employment for a certain period of time;

• retirement;

• displacement;

• disability;

• death; or

• any combination of these conditions.

Subject to the terms of the Plan and Code Section 409A requirements, the administrator determines whether and to what degree restricted awards have vested and been earned and are payable. If a participant’s employment or service is terminated for any reason and all or any part of a restricted award has not vested or been earned pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the individual award, the participant will forfeit the award and related benefits unless the administrator determines otherwise.

Dividend and Dividend Equivalent

The administrator may provide that awards earn dividends or dividend equivalents, subject to restrictions set forth in the Plan. Such dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid currently or may be credited to a participant’s account, subject to such restrictions and conditions as the administrator may establish.

Change in Control

Upon a “change in control,” as defined in the Plan and subject to any Code Section 409A requirements, awards vest and become immediately exercizable in full.

Transfer and Other Restrictions

Awards generally are not transferable other than by will or the laws of intestate succession or as may otherwise be permitted by the administrator, and participants may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber shares subject to such awards until the restriction period and/or performance period has expired and until all conditions to vesting the award have been met. As a condition to the issuance or transfer of common stock or the grant of any other Plan benefit, we may require a participant or other person to become a party to an agreement imposing such conditions or restrictions as we may require.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following generally describes the principal federal (and not state and local) income tax consequences of awards granted under the Plan as of this time. The summary is general in nature and is not intended to cover all tax consequences that may apply to a particular participant or to the Company. The provisions of the Code and related regulations and other guidance are complicated and their impact in any one case may depend upon the particular circumstances.

Incentive Options

The grant and exercise of an incentive stock option generally will not result in taxable income to the participant if the participant does not dispose of shares received upon exercise of such option less than one year after the date of exercise and two years after the date of grant, and if the participant has continuously been an employee of the Company from the date of grant to three months before the date of exercise (or 12 months in the event of disability). However, the excess of the fair market value of the shares received upon exercise of the option over the option price generally will constitute an item of adjustment in computing the participant’s alternative minimum taxable income for the year of exercise. Thus, certain participants may incur federal income tax liability as a result of the exercise of an incentive option under the alternative minimum tax rules of the Code.

28

The Company generally is not entitled to a deduction upon the exercise of an incentive option. Upon the disposition of shares acquired upon exercise of an incentive option, the participant will be taxed on the amount by which the amount realized exceeds the option price. This amount will be treated as capital gain or loss.

If the holding period requirements described above are not met, the participant will have ordinary income in the year of disposition to the extent of the lesser of: (i) the fair market value of the stock on the date of exercise minus the option price or (ii) the amount realized on disposition of the stock minus the option price. The Company generally is entitled to deduct as compensation the amount of ordinary income realized by the participant.

Pursuant to the Code and the terms of the Plan, in no event can there first become exercisable by a participant in any one calendar year incentive stock options granted by the Company with respect to shares having an aggregate fair market value (determined at the time an option is granted) greater than $100,000. To the extent an incentive option granted under the Plan exceeds this limitation; it will be treated as a nonqualified option.

Nonqualified Options

If a participant receives a nonqualified option, the difference between the fair market value of the stock on the date of exercise and the option price will constitute taxable ordinary income to the participant on the date of exercise. The Company generally will be entitled to a deduction in the same year in an amount equal to the income taxable to the participant.

Stock Appreciation Rights

The grant of an SAR will not result in taxable income to a participant or a tax deduction to the Company. Upon exercise of the SAR, the amount of cash and fair market value of shares received by the participant (determined at the time of delivery to the participant), less cash or other consideration paid (if any), is taxed to the participant as ordinary income and the Company generally will be entitled to receive a corresponding tax deduction.

Restricted Stock Awards

The grant of restricted stock awards will not result in taxable income to the participant or a tax deduction to the Company, unless the restrictions on the stock do not present a substantial risk of forfeiture or the award is transferable. In the year that the restricted stock is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture or the award is transferable, the fair market value of such shares at such date and any cash amount awarded, less cash or other consideration paid (if any), will be taxed to the participant as ordinary income, except that, in the case of restricted stock issued at the beginning of the restriction period, the participant may elect to include in his ordinary income at the time the restricted stock is awarded, the fair market value of such shares at such time, less any amount paid for the shares. The Company generally will be entitled to a corresponding tax deduction.

Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents

The federal income tax consequences of the award of restricted stock units or dividend equivalents will depend on the conditions of the award. Generally, the grant of one of these awards does not result in taxable income to the participant or a tax deduction to the Company. However, the participant will recognize ordinary compensation income at settlement of the award equal to any cash and the fair market value of any common stock received (determined as of the date that the award is not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture or transferable). The Company generally is entitled to a deduction upon the participant’s recognition of income in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the participant.

29

Section 409A of the Code

Section 409A of the Code imposes certain requirements on deferred compensation. The Company intends for the Plan to comply in good faith with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code including related regulations and guidance, where applicable and to the extent practicable. If, however, Section 409A of the Code is deemed to apply to an award, and the Plan and award do not satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code during a taxable year, the participant will have ordinary income in the year of non-compliance in the amount of all deferrals subject to Section 409A of the Code to the extent that the award is not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. The participant will be subject to an additional tax of 20% on all amounts includible in income and may also be subject to interest charges under Section 409A of the Code. The Company generally will be entitled to an income tax deduction with respect to the amount of compensation includible as income to the participant. The Company undertakes no responsibility to take, or to refrain from taking, any actions in order to achieve a certain tax result for any participant.

Accounting Treatment

Stock Option grants or stock issuances made to employees or directors under the Plan are accounted for under the provisions of ASC topic 718 “Compensation — Stock compensation” which requires the use of the fair-value based method to determine compensation for all arrangements under which employees and others receive shares of stock or equity instruments (options and warrants). Under the fair value based method, total compensation expense related to such stock options or stock issuances is determined using the fair value of the stock options or stock issuances on the date of grant. Total compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the applicable stock option or stock grant.

Description of the Changes to the Plan

Increase in Number of Shares.The amendment that the shareholders are being asked to approve includes an increase in the number of shares of Company common stock available for issuance from 8,500,000 to 12,500,000. As of October 15, 2011, 10,355,000 shares of common stock have been issued under the Plan and are included in the number of shares outstanding. In addition, no shares remain available for issuance under the Plan as previously approved by shareholders at March 30, 2010. Awards under the Plan are determined on a case-by-case basis, including among other things, the Executive’s performance, overall compensation and the performance of the Company. Accordingly, future awards (“new plan benefits”) under the Plan are not determinable at this time. Reference is made to the sections captioned “Executive Compensation” and “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End” of this Proxy Statement for detailed information on stock incentive awards and exercises of such awards by certain executive officers under former and existing stock incentive plans.

Plan Benefits

During the period January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, the Compensation Committee granted options as follows: Messrs. Petit and Taylor and Senken were granted 325,000, 350,000 and 275,000 options, respectively; all other executives as a group were granted a total of 170,400 options; and all other employees and consultants as a group were granted a total of 1,265,000 options, for a total aggregate amount of 2,385,400 stock options. The Compensation Committee also authorized on February 23, 2010, an aggregate of 200,000 options to be granted to certain consultants, subject to entering into final agreements with such consultants. Of these 200,000 authorized options, 60,000 options have been granted as of December 31, 2010 and are included in the total aggregate stock options granted in 2010.

Other than those grants, the selection of individuals who will receive awards of the newly authorized shares under the Plan and the amount of any such awards are subject to Compensation Committee discretion and are not yet determinable. Therefore, it is not possible to predict the benefits or amounts that will be received by, or allocated to, particular individuals or groups of employees in fiscal 2011. The number of shares of common stock subject to awards granted in fiscal 2010 to the Company’s Named Executive Officers is set forth in this Proxy Statement in the “Summary Compensation Table” and the “Grant of Plan-Based Awards Table.”

30

Market Price of the Common Stock

The closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the OTCBB was $1.05 per share on October 31, 2011. As of such date, the aggregate market value of the 13,416,250 shares of common stock issuable under the Plan was $15,428,688.

The preceding summary of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Plan set forth in Appendix B to this proxy statement.

In addition to action by meeting in accordance with Applicable Laws, any action of the Administrator with respect to the Plan may be taken by a written instrument signed by all of the members of the Board or Committee, as appropriate, and any such action so taken by written consent shall be as fully effective as if it had been taken by a majority of the members at a meeting duly held and called. No member of the Board or Committee, as applicable, shall be liable while acting as Administrator for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan, an Award or an Award Agreement. The members of the Board or Committee, as applicable, shall be entitled to indemnification and reimbursement in the manner provided in the Corporation’s articles of incorporation and bylaws and/or under Applicable Laws.

(c) Notwithstanding the other provisions of Section 3, the Administrator may delegate to one or more officers of the Corporation the authority to grant Awards, and to make any or all of the determinations reserved for the Administrator in the Plan and summarized in Section 3(b) with respect to such Awards (subject to any restrictions imposed by Applicable Laws, and such terms and conditions as may be established by the Administrator); provided, however, that, if and to the extent required by Section 16 of the Exchange Act or Section 162(m) of the Code, the Participant, at the time of said grant or other determination, (i) is not deemed to be an officer or director of the Corporation within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act; and (ii) is not deemed to be a Covered Employee as defined under Section 162(m) of the Code and related regulations. To the extent that the Administrator has delegated authority to grant Awards pursuant to this Section 3(c) to one or more officers of the Corporation, references to the Administrator shall include references to such officer or officers, subject, however, to the requirements of the Plan, Rule 16b-3, Section 162(m) of the Code and other Applicable Laws.

(c)Shares Not Subject to Limitations: The following will not be applied to the share limitations of Section 5(a) above: (i) dividends, including dividends paid in shares, or dividend equivalents paid in cash in connection with outstanding Awards; (ii) Awards which by their terms are settled in cash rather than the issuance of shares; (iii) any shares subject to an Award under the Plan which Award is forfeited, cancelled, terminated, expires or lapses for any reason or any shares subject to an Award which shares are repurchased or reacquired by the Corporation; and (iv) any shares surrendered by a Participant or withheld by the Corporation to pay the Option Price or purchase price for an Award or shares used to satisfy any tax withholding requirement in connection with the exercise, vesting or earning of an Award if, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, a Participant pays such Option Price or purchase price or satisfies such tax withholding by either tendering previously owned shares or having the Corporation withhold shares.

(d)Adjustments: If there is any change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock because of a merger, consolidation or reorganization involving the Corporation or an Affiliate, or if the Board of Directors of the Corporation declares a stock dividend, stock split distributable in shares of Common Stock, reverse stock split, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or if there is a similar change in the capital stock structure of the Corporation or an Affiliate affecting the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be correspondingly adjusted, and the Administrator shall make such adjustments to Awards and to any provisions of this Plan as the Administrator deems equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of Awards or as may be otherwise advisable.

6. Eligibility

An Award may be granted only to an individual who satisfies all of the following eligibility requirements on the date the Award is granted:

(a) The individual is either (i) an Employee, (ii) a Director, or (iii) an Independent Contractor.

(b) With respect to the grant of Incentive Options, the individual is otherwise eligible to participate under Section 6, is an Employee of the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary and does not own, immediately before the time that the Incentive Option is granted, stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Employee who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary may be granted an Incentive Option if the Option Price is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock, and the Option Period does not exceed five years. For this purpose, an individual will be deemed to own stock which is attributable to him under Section 424(d) of the Code.

(c) With respect to the grant of substitute awards or assumption of awards in connection with a merger, consolidation, acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Corporation or an Affiliate, the recipient is otherwise eligible to receive the Award and the terms of the award are consistent with the Plan and Applicable Laws (including, to the extent necessary, the federal securities laws registration provisions and Section 409A and Section 424(a) of the Code and related regulations or other guidance).

(d) The individual, being otherwise eligible under this Section 6, is selected by the Administrator as an individual to whom an Award shall be granted (as defined above, a “Participant”).

7. Options

(a)Grant of Options: Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the Administrator may in its sole and absolute discretion grant Options to such eligible individuals in such numbers, subject to such terms and conditions, and at such times as the Administrator shall determine. Both Incentive Options and Nonqualified Options may be granted under the Plan, as determined by the Administrator; provided, however, that Incentive Options may only be granted to Employees of the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary. To the extent that an Option is designated as an Incentive Option but does not qualify as such under Section 422 of the Code, the Option (or portion thereof) shall be treated as a Nonqualified Option. An Option may be granted with or without a Related SAR.

(b)Option Price: The Option Price shall be established by the Administrator and stated in the Award Agreement evidencing the grant of the Option; provided, that (i) the Option Price of an Option shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock as determined on the date the Option is granted (or 110% of the Fair Market Value with respect to Incentive Options granted to an Employee who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary, as provided in Section 6(b)); and (ii) in no event shall the Option Price per share of any Option be less than the par value per share (if any) of the Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may in its discretion authorize the grant of substitute or assumed options of an acquired entity with an Option Price not equal to at least 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant, if such options are assumed or substituted in accordance with Reg. Section 1.424-1 (or any successor provision thereto) and if the option price of any such assumed or substituted option was at least equal to 100% of the fair market value of the underlying stock on the original date of grant, or if the terms of such assumed or substituted option otherwise comply with Code Section 409A, related regulations and other guidance. The preceding sentence shall also apply to SARs that are assumed or substituted in a corporate transaction, to the extent required under Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance.

(c)Date of Grant: An Incentive Option shall be considered to be granted on the date that the Administrator acts to grant the Option, or on any later date specified by the Administrator as the effective date of the Option. A Nonqualified Option shall be considered to be granted on the date the Administrator acts to grant the Option or any other date specified by the Administrator as the date of grant of the Option.

(d)Option Period and Limitations on the Right to Exercise Options:

(i) The Option Period shall be determined by the Administrator at the time the Option is granted and shall be stated in the Award Agreement. With respect to Incentive Options, the Option Period shall not extend more than 10 years from the date on which the Option is granted (or five years with respect to Incentive Options granted to an Employee who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary, as provided in Section 6(b)). Any Option or portion thereof not exercised before expiration of the Option Period shall terminate. The period or periods during which, and conditions pursuant to which, an Option may become exercisable shall be determined by the Administrator in its discretion, subject to the terms of the Plan.

(ii) An Option may be exercised by giving written notice to the Corporation in form acceptable to the Administrator at such place and subject to such conditions as may be established by the Administrator or its designee. Such notice shall specify the number of shares to be purchased pursuant to an Option and the aggregate purchase price to be paid therefore and shall be accompanied by payment of such purchase price. Unless an Award Agreement provides otherwise, such payment shall be in the form of cash or cash equivalent; provided that, where permitted by the Administrator and Applicable Laws (and subject to such terms and conditions as may be established by the Administrator), payment may also be made:

(A) By delivery (by either actual delivery or attestation) of shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant for a time period, if any, determined by the Administrator and otherwise acceptable to the Administrator;

10

(B) With respect only to purchases upon exercise of an Option after a public market for the Common Stock exists, by delivery of written notice of exercise to the Corporation and delivery to a broker of written notice of exercise and irrevocable instructions to promptly deliver to the Corporation the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the Option Price;

(C) By cash bonuses, loans or such other payment methods as may be approved by the Administrator (and subject to such terms as may be established by the Administrator), and which methods are acceptable under Applicable Laws; or

(D) By any combination of the foregoing methods.

Shares tendered or withheld in payment on the exercise of an Option shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, as determined by the Administrator. For the purposes of the Plan, a “public market” for the Common Stock shall be deemed to exist (i) upon consummation of a firm commitment underwritten public offering of the Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) if the Administrator otherwise determines that there is an established public market for the Common Stock.

(iii) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, no Option granted to a Participant who was an Employee at the time of grant shall be exercised unless the Participant is, at the time of exercise, an Employee, and has been an Employee continuously since the date the Option was granted, subject to the following:

(A) The employment relationship of a Participant shall be treated as continuing intact for any period that the Participant is on military or sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence, provided that the period of such leave does not exceed three months, or, if longer, as long as the Participant’s right to reemployment is guaranteed either by statute or by contract. The employment relationship of a Participant shall also be treated as continuing intact while the Participant is not in active service because of Disability. The Administrator shall have sole authority to determine whether a Participant is disabled and, if applicable, the Participant’s Termination Date.

(B) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, if the employment of a Participant is terminated because of Disability or death, the Option may be exercised only to the extent exercisable on the Participant’s Termination Date, except that the Administrator may in its sole discretion accelerate the date for exercising all or any part of the Option which was not otherwise exercisable on the Termination Date. The Option must be exercised, if at all, prior to the first to occur of the following, whichever shall be applicable: (X) the close of the one-year period following the Termination Date (or such other period stated in the Award Agreement); or (Y) the close of the Option Period. In the event of the Participant’s death, such Option shall be exercisable by such person or persons as shall have acquired the right to exercise the Option by will or by the laws of intestate succession.

11

(C) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, if the employment of the Participant is terminated for any reason other than Disability, death or for “Cause,” his Option may be exercised to the extent exercisable on his Termination Date, except that the Administrator may in its sole discretion accelerate the date for exercising all or any part of the Option which was not otherwise exercisable on the Termination Date. The Option must be exercised, if at all, prior to the first to occur of the following, whichever shall be applicable: (X) the close of the period of three months next succeeding the Termination Date (or such other period stated in the Award Agreement); or (Y) the close of the Option Period. If the Participant dies following such termination of employment and prior to the earlier of the dates specified in (X) or (Y) of this subparagraph (C), the Participant shall be treated as having died while employed under subparagraph (B) (treating for this purpose the Participant’s date of termination of employment as the Termination Date). In the event of the Participant’s death, such Option shall be exercisable by such person or persons as shall have acquired the right to exercise the Option by will or by the laws of intestate succession.

(D) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, if the employment of the Participant is terminated for “Cause,” his Option shall lapse and no longer be exercisable as of his Termination Date, as determined by the Administrator.

(E) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion (subject to any requirements imposed under Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance), accelerate the date for exercising all or any part of an Option which was not otherwise exercisable on the Termination Date, extend the period during which an Option may be exercised, modify the terms and conditions to exercise, or any combination of the foregoing.

(iv) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, an Option granted to a Participant who was a Director but who was not an Employee at the time of grant may be exercised only to the extent exercisable on the Participant’s Termination Date (unless the termination was for Cause), and must be exercised, if at all, prior to the first to occur of the following, as applicable: (X) the close of the period of three months next succeeding the Termination Date (or such other period stated in the Award Agreement); or (Y) the close of the Option Period. If the services of a Participant are terminated for Cause, his Option shall lapse and no longer be exercisable as of his Termination Date, as determined by the Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (subject to any requirements imposed under Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance) accelerate the date for exercising all or any part of an Option which was not otherwise exercisable on the Termination Date, extend the period during which an Option may be exercised, modify the other terms and conditions to exercise, or any combination of the foregoing.

(v) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, an Option granted to a Participant who was an Independent Contractor at the time of grant (and who does not thereafter become an Employee, in which case he shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7(d)(iii)) may be exercised only to the extent exercisable on the Participant’s Termination Date (unless the termination was for Cause), and must be exercised, if at all, prior to the first to occur of the following, as applicable: (X) the close of the period of three months next succeeding the Termination Date (or such other period stated in the Award Agreement); or (Y) the close of the Option Period. If the services of a Participant are terminated for Cause, his Option shall lapse and no longer be exercisable as of his Termination Date, as determined by the Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (subject to any requirements imposed under Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance) accelerate the date for exercising all or any part of an Option which was not otherwise exercisable on the Termination Date, extend the period during which an Option may be exercised, modify the other terms and conditions to exercise, or any combination of the foregoing.

(e)Notice of Disposition: If shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of an Incentive Option are disposed of within two years following the date of grant or one year following the transfer of such shares to a Participant upon exercise, the Participant shall, promptly following such disposition, notify the Corporation in writing of the date and terms of such disposition and provide such other information regarding the disposition as the Administrator may reasonably require.

12

(f)Limitation on Incentive Options: In no event shall there first become exercisable by an Employee in any one calendar year Incentive Options granted by the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary with respect to shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time an Incentive Option is granted) greater than $100,000. To the extent that any Incentive Options are first exercisable by a Participant in excess of such limitation, the excess shall be considered a Nonqualified Option.

(g)Nontransferability: Incentive Options shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of intestate succession or, in the Administrator’s discretion, as may otherwise be permitted in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.421-1(b)(2) or any successor provision thereto. Nonqualified Options shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of intestate succession, except for such transfers to immediate family members or related entities as may be permitted by the Administrator in a manner consistent with the registration provisions of the Securities Act. Except as may be permitted by the preceding sentence, an Option shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by him or by his guardian or legal representative. The designation of a beneficiary in accordance with the Plan does not constitute a transfer.

13

8. Stock Appreciation Rights

(a)Grant of SARs: Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the Administrator may in its sole and absolute discretion grant SARs to such eligible individuals, in such numbers, upon such terms and at such times as the Administrator shall determine. SARs may be granted to the holder of an Option (a “Related Option”) with respect to all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Related Option (a “Related SAR”) or may be granted separately to an eligible individual (a “Freestanding SAR”). The base price per share of an SAR shall be no less than 100% the Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock on the date the SAR is granted (except as may be otherwise permitted in the case of substituted or assumed SARs in accordance with Section 7(b)).

(b)Related SARs: A Related SAR may be granted either concurrently with the grant of the Related Option or (if the Related Option is a Nonqualified Option) at any time thereafter prior to the complete exercise, termination, expiration or cancellation of such Related Option; provided, however, that Related SARs must be granted in accordance with Code Section 409A, related regulations and other guidance. The base price of a Related SAR shall be equal to the Option Price of the Related Option. Related SARs shall be exercisable only at the time and to the extent that the Related Option is exercisable (and may be subject to such additional limitations on exercisability as the Administrator may provide in the Award Agreement), and in no event after the complete termination or full exercise of the Related Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Related SAR that is related to an Incentive Option may be exercised only to the extent that the Related Option is exercisable and only when the Fair Market Value exceeds the Option Price of the Related Option. Upon the exercise of a Related SAR granted in connection with a Related Option, the Option shall be canceled to the extent of the number of shares as to which the Related SAR is exercised, and upon the exercise of a Related Option, the Related SAR shall be canceled to the extent of the number of shares as to which the Related Option is exercised or surrendered.

(c)Freestanding SARs: An SAR may be granted without relationship to an Option (as defined above, a “Freestanding SAR”) and, in such case, will be exercisable upon such terms and subject to such conditions as may be determined by the Administrator, subject to the terms of the Plan.

(d)Exercise of SARs:

(i) Subject to the terms of the Plan, SARs shall be exercisable in whole or in part upon such terms and conditions as may be established by the Administrator and stated in the applicable Award Agreement. The period during which an SAR may be exercisable shall not exceed 10 years from the date of grant or, in the case of Related SARs, such shorter Option Period as may apply to the Related Option. Any SAR or portion thereof not exercised before expiration of the period established by the Administrator shall terminate.

14

(ii) SARs may be exercised by giving written notice to the Corporation in form acceptable to the Administrator at such place and subject to such terms and conditions as may be established by the Administrator or its designee. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the date of exercise of an SAR shall mean the date on which the Corporation shall have received proper notice from the Participant of the exercise of such SAR.

(iii) Each Participant’s Award Agreement shall set forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to exercise an SAR following termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Corporation. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator, need not be uniform among all SARs issued pursuant to this Section 8, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination of employment or service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Administrator determines otherwise, no SAR may be exercised unless the Participant is, at the time of exercise, an eligible Participant, as described in Section 6, and has been a Participant continuously since the date the SAR was granted, subject to the provisions of Sections 7(d)(iii), (iv) and (v).

(e)Payment Upon Exercise: Subject to the limitations of the Plan, upon the exercise of an SAR, a Participant shall be entitled to receive payment from the Corporation in an amount determined by multiplying (i) the difference between the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise of the SAR over the base price of the SAR by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the SAR is being exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator in its discretion may limit in any manner the amount payable with respect to an SAR. The consideration payable upon exercise of an SAR shall be paid in cash, shares of Common Stock (valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of the SAR) or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as determined by the Administrator.

(f)Nontransferability: Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, (i) SARs shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of intestate succession, and (ii) SARs may be exercised during the Participant’s lifetime only by him or by his guardian or legal representative. The designation of a beneficiary in accordance with the Plan does not constitute a transfer.

9. Restricted Awards

(a)Grant of Restricted Awards: Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the Administrator may in its sole and absolute discretion grant Restricted Awards to such individuals in such numbers, upon such terms and at such times as the Administrator shall determine. Such Restricted Awards may be in the form of Restricted Stock Awards and/or Restricted Stock Units that are subject to certain conditions, which conditions must be met in order for the Restricted Award to vest and be earned (in whole or in part) and no longer subject to forfeiture. Restricted Stock Awards shall be payable in shares of Common Stock. Restricted Stock Units shall be payable in cash or shares of Common Stock, or partly in cash and partly in shares of Common Stock, in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the discretion of the Administrator. The Administrator shall determine the nature, length and starting date of the period, if any, during which a Restricted Award may be earned (the “Restriction Period”), and shall determine the conditions which must be met in order for a Restricted Award to be granted or to vest or be earned (in whole or in part), which conditions may include, but are not limited to, payment of a stipulated purchase price, attainment of performance objectives, continued service or employment for a certain period of time (or a combination of attainment of performance objectives and continued service), Retirement, Displacement, Disability, death or any combination of such conditions. In the case of Restricted Awards based upon performance criteria, or a combination of performance criteria and continued service, the Administrator shall determine the Performance Measures applicable to such Restricted Awards (subject to Section 1(ee)).

15

(b)Vesting of Restricted Awards: Subject to the terms of the Plan and Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance, the Administrator shall have sole authority to determine whether and to what degree Restricted Awards have vested and been earned and are payable and to establish and interpret the terms and conditions of Restricted Awards. The Administrator may (subject to any restrictions imposed under Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance) accelerate the date that any Restricted Award granted to a Participant shall be deemed to be vested or earned in whole or in part, without any obligation to accelerate such date with respect to other Restricted Awards granted to any Participant.

(c)Forfeiture of Restricted Awards: Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, if the employment or service of a Participant shall be terminated for any reason and all or any part of a Restricted Award has not vested or been earned pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the individual Award, such Award, to the extent not then vested or earned, shall be forfeited immediately upon such termination and the Participant shall have no further rights with respect to the Award or any shares of Common Stock, cash or other benefits related to the Award.

(d)Shareholder Rights; Share Certificates: The Administrator shall have sole discretion to determine whether a Participant shall have dividend rights, voting rights or other rights as a shareholder with respect to shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award which has not yet vested or been earned. If the Administrator so determines, a certificate or certificates for whole shares of Common Stock subject to a Restricted Stock Award may be issued in the name of the Participant as soon as practicable after the Award has been granted; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator or its designee shall have the right to retain custody of certificates evidencing the shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award and to require the Participant to deliver to the Corporation a stock power, endorsed in blank, with respect to such Award, until such time as the Restricted Stock Award vests (or is forfeited) and is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture.

(e)Nontransferability: Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, Restricted Awards that have not vested shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of intestate succession, and the recipient of a Restricted Award shall not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber shares subject to the Award until the Restriction Period has expired and until all conditions to vesting have been met. The designation of a beneficiary in accordance with the Plan does not constitute a transfer.

10. Dividends and Dividend Equivalents

Awards granted under the Plan shall, to the extent vested, earn dividends or dividend equivalents. Such dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid currently or may be credited to a Participant’s account. Any crediting of dividends or dividend equivalents may be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Administrator may establish, including reinvestment in additional shares of Common Stock or share equivalents. Notwithstanding the other provisions herein, any dividends or dividend equivalent rights related to an Award shall be structured in a manner so as to avoid causing the Award to be subject to Code Section 409A or shall otherwise be structured so that the Award and dividends or dividend equivalents are in compliance with Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance.

11. No Right or Obligation of Continued Employment or Service

Neither the Plan, the grant of an Award nor any other action related to the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the service of the Corporation or an Affiliate as an Employee, Director or Independent Contractor or to interfere in any way with the right of the Corporation or an Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, an Award Agreement or as may be determined by the Administrator, all rights of a Participant with respect to an Award shall terminate upon the termination of the Participant’s employment or service.

16

12. Amendment and Termination of the Plan

(a)Amendment and Termination: The Plan may be amended, altered and/or terminated at any time by the Administrator; provided, however, that approval of an amendment to the Plan by the shareholders of the Corporation shall be required to the extent, if any, that shareholder approval of such amendment is required by Applicable Laws. Any Award may be amended, altered and/or terminated at any time by the Administrator; provided, however, that any such amendment, alteration or termination of an Award shall not, without the consent of the recipient of an outstanding Award, materially adversely affect the rights of the recipient with respect to the Award.

(b)Unilateral Authority of Administrator to Modify Plan and Awards: Notwithstanding Section 12(a) herein, the following provisions shall apply:

(i) The Administrator shall have unilateral authority to amend the Plan and any Award (without Participant consent and without shareholder approval, unless such shareholder approval is required by Applicable Laws) to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws or changes to Applicable Laws (including but not limited to Code Section 409A and Code Section 422, related regulations or other guidance and federal securities laws).

(ii) The Administrator shall have unilateral authority to make adjustments to the terms and conditions of Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Corporation or any Affiliate, or the financial statements of the Corporation or any Affiliate, or of changes in accounting principles, if the Administrator determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable accounting principles.

(c)Cash Settlement: Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, an Award or an Award Agreement to the contrary, the Administrator shall have discretion (subject to (i) any requirements imposed under Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance and (ii) consideration of such accounting principles as the Administrator deems relevant) to cause any Award (or portion thereof) granted under the Plan to be canceled in consideration of an alternative award or cash payment of an equivalent cash value, as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, made to the holder of such canceled Award.

13. Restrictions on Awards and Shares

(a)General: As a condition to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock hereunder, or the grant of any benefit pursuant to the Plan, the Corporation shall require a Participant or other person to become a party to an Award Agreement, the Shareholders Agreement, other agreement(s) restricting the transfer, purchase or repurchase of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation, voting agreement or such other agreements and any other employment agreements, consulting agreements, non-competition agreements, confidentiality agreements, non-solicitation agreements or other similar agreements imposing such restrictions as may be required by the Corporation. In addition, without in any way limiting the effect of the foregoing, each Participant or other holder of shares issued under the Plan shall be permitted to transfer such shares only if such transfer is in accordance with the terms of Section 13 herein, the Award Agreement, the Shareholders Agreement and any other applicable agreements. The acquisition of shares of Common Stock under the Plan by a Participant or any other holder of shares shall be subject to, and conditioned upon, the agreement of the Participant or other holder of such shares to the restrictions described in this Section 13, the Award Agreement, the Shareholders Agreement and any other applicable agreements.

17

(b)Compliance with Applicable Laws: The Corporation may impose such restrictions on Awards, shares and any other benefits underlying Awards hereunder as it may deem advisable, including without limitation restrictions under the federal securities laws, the requirements of any stock exchange or similar organization and any blue sky, state or foreign securities laws applicable to such securities. Notwithstanding any other Plan provision to the contrary, the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue, deliver or transfer shares of Common Stock under the Plan, make any other distribution of benefits under the Plan, or take any other action, unless such delivery, distribution or action is in compliance with Applicable Laws (including but not limited to the requirements of the Securities Act). The Corporation may cause a restrictive legend to be placed on any certificate issued pursuant to an Award hereunder in such form as may be prescribed from time to time by Applicable Laws or as may be advised by legal counsel.

14. Change in Control

In the event of a Change in Control, all Awards shall vest and become immediately exercisable in full.

15. Compliance with Code Section 409A

(a)General: Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan or an Award to the contrary, if and to the extent that Section 409A of the Code is deemed to apply to the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan, it is the general intention of the Corporation that the Plan and all such Awards shall comply with Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance, and the Plan and any such Award shall, to the extent practicable, be construed in accordance therewith. Deferrals of shares or any other benefit issuable pursuant to an Award otherwise exempt from Code Section 409A in a manner that would cause Code Section 409A to apply shall not be permitted unless such deferrals are in compliance with Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance. Without in any way limiting the effect of the foregoing, in the event that Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance require that any special terms, provisions or conditions be included in the Plan or any Award, then such terms, provisions and conditions shall, to the extent practicable, be deemed to be made a part of the Plan or Award, as applicable. Further, in the event that the Plan or any Award shall be deemed not to comply with Code Section 409A or any related regulations or other guidance, then neither the Corporation, the Administrator nor its or their designees or agents shall be liable to any Participant or other person for actions, decisions or determinations made in good faith.

(b)Special Code Section 409A Provisions for Nonqualified Options: Notwithstanding the other provisions of the Plan, unless otherwise permitted under Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance, (i) the Option Price for a Nonqualified Option may never be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant of the Option and the number of shares subject to the Option shall be fixed on the original grant date; (ii) the transfer or exercise of the Option shall be subject to taxation under Code Section 83 and related regulations; and (iii) the Nonqualified Option may not include any feature for the deferral of compensation other than the deferral of recognition of income until the later of exercise or disposition of the Option or the time the shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Option first became substantially vested.

18

(c)Special Code Section 409A Provisions for SARs: Notwithstanding the other provisions the Plan, unless otherwise permitted under Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance, (i) compensation payable under an SAR cannot be greater than the difference between the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the SAR grant date and the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the SAR exercise date; (ii) the SAR base price may never be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the SAR is granted; and (iii) the SAR may not include any feature for the deferral of compensation other than the deferral of recognition of income until the exercise of the SAR.

(d)Short-Term Deferrals: Except to the extent otherwise required or permitted under Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance, distributions pursuant to Restricted Stock Units or any Awards granted under the Plan that are subject to Code Section 409A must be made no later than the later of (A) the 15^th day of the third month following the Participant’s first taxable year in which the amount is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture; or (B) the 15^th day of the third month following the end of the Corporation’s first taxable year in which the amount is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and to the extent that the distribution of shares of Common Stock or any other benefit payable pursuant to an Award is deemed to involve the deferral of compensation that is not otherwise exempt from Code Section 409A, then (i) the distribution of such shares or benefit shall occur no later than the end of the calendar year in which the Award vests; and (ii) if the Participant is or may be a “specified employee” (as defined in Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance), a distribution due to separation from service may not be made before the date that is six months after the date of separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Participant), except as may be otherwise permitted pursuant to Code Section 409A, related regulations or other guidance.

16. General Provisions

(a)Shareholder Rights: Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator (and subject to the provisions of Section 9(d) regarding Restricted Stock Awards), a Participant and his legal representative, legatees or distributes shall not be deemed to be the holder of any shares subject to an Award and shall not have any rights of a shareholder unless and until certificates for such shares have been issued and delivered to him or them under the Plan. A certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of an Option or SAR shall be promptly issued in the name of the Participant (or his beneficiary) and distributed to the Participant (or his beneficiary) as soon as practicable following receipt of notice of exercise and, with respect to Options, payment of the Option Price (except as may otherwise be determined by the Corporation in the event of payment of the Option Price pursuant to Section 7(d)(ii)(C)). Except as otherwise provided in Section 9(d) regarding Restricted Stock Awards, a certificate for any shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to a Restricted Award shall be promptly issued in the name of the Participant (or his beneficiary) and distributed to the Participant (or his beneficiary) after the Award (or portion thereof) has vested or been earned and any other conditions to distribution have been met.

(b)Withholding:The Corporation shall withhold all required local, state, federal, foreign and other taxes and any other amount required to be withheld by any governmental authority or law from any amount payable in cash with respect to an Award. Prior to the delivery or transfer of any certificate for shares or any other benefit conferred under the Plan, the Corporation shall require any recipient of an Award to pay to the Corporation in cash the amount of any tax or other amount required by any governmental authority to be withheld and paid over by the Corporation to such authority for the account of such recipient. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may establish procedures to permit a recipient to satisfy such obligation in whole or in part, and any local, state, federal, foreign or other income tax obligations relating to such an Award, by electing (the “election”) to have the Corporation withhold shares of Common Stock from the shares to which the recipient is entitled. The number of shares to be withheld shall have a Fair Market Value as of the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined as nearly equal as possible to (but not exceeding) the amount of such obligations being satisfied. Each election must be made in writing to the Administrator in accordance with election procedures established by the Administrator.

(c)Section 16(b) Compliance: If and to the extent that any Participants in the Plan are subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, it is the general intention of the Corporation that transactions under the Plan by such persons shall comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act and that the Plan shall be construed in favor of such Plan transactions meeting the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or any successor rules thereto. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, may bifurcate the Plan so as to restrict, limit or condition the use of any provision of the Plan to Participants who are officers or directors subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act without so restricting, limiting or conditioning the Plan with respect to other Participants.

(d)CodeSection 162(m) Performance-Based Compensation. If and to the extent to which Section 162(m) of the Code is applicable, the Corporation intends that compensation paid under the Plan to Covered Employees will, to the extent practicable, constitute “qualified performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) and related regulations, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator. Accordingly, Awards granted to Covered Employees which are intended to qualify for the performance-based exception under Code Section 162(m) and related regulations shall be deemed to include any such additional terms, conditions, limitations and provisions as are necessary to comply with the performance-based compensation exemption of Section 162(m), unless the Administrator, in its discretion, determines otherwise.

(e)Unfunded Plan; No Effect on Other Plans:

(i) The Plan shall be unfunded, and the Corporation shall not be required to create a trust or segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by Awards under the Plan. The Plan shall not establish any fiduciary relationship between the Corporation and any Participant or other person. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall, by reason of the Plan, acquire any right in or title to any assets, funds or property of the Corporation or any Affiliate, including, without limitation, any specific funds, assets or other property which the Corporation or any Affiliate, in their discretion, may set aside in anticipation of a liability under the Plan. A Participant shall have only a contractual right to the Common Stock or other amounts, if any, payable under the Plan, unsecured by any assets of the Corporation or any Affiliate. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guarantee that the assets of such entities shall be sufficient to pay any benefits to any person.

(ii) The amount of any compensation deemed to be received by a Participant pursuant to an Award shall not constitute compensation with respect to which any other employee benefits of such Participant are determined, including, without limitation, benefits under any bonus, pension, profit sharing, life insurance or salary continuation plan, except as otherwise specifically provided by the terms of such plan or as may be determined by the Administrator.

(iii) The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other stock incentive or other compensation plans in effect for the Corporation or any Affiliate, nor shall the Plan preclude the Corporation from establishing any other forms of stock incentive or other compensation for employees or service providers of the Corporation or any Affiliate.

(f)Applicable Laws: The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to the conflict of laws provisions of any state, and in accordance with applicable federal laws of the United States.

20

(g)Beneficiary Designation: The Administrator may in its discretion permit a Participant to designate in writing a person or persons as beneficiary, which beneficiary shall be entitled to receive settlement of Awards (if any) to which the Participant is otherwise entitled in the event of death. In the absence of such designation by a Participant, and in the event of the Participant’s death, the estate of the Participant shall be treated as beneficiary for purposes of the Plan, unless the Administrator determines otherwise. The Administrator shall have sole discretion to approve and interpret the form or forms of such beneficiary designation. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to the Participant, except to the extent that the Plan and/or Award Agreement provide otherwise, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator.

(h)Gender and Number: Except where otherwise indicated by the context, words in any gender shall include any other gender, words in the singular shall include the plural and words in the plural shall include the singular.

(i)Severability: If any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

(j) Rules of Construction: Headings are given to the sections of this Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. The reference to any statute, regulation or other provision of law shall be construed to refer to any amendment to or successor of such provision of law.

(k)Successors and Assigns: The Plan shall be binding upon the Corporation, its successors and assigns, and Participants, their executors, administrators and permitted transferees and beneficiaries.

(l)Right of Offset: Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or an Award Agreement, the Corporation may reduce the amount of any payment or benefit otherwise payable to or on behalf of a Participant by the amount of any obligation of the Participant to or on behalf of the Corporation that is or becomes due and payable.

(m)Effect of Changes in Status: An Award shall not be affected by any change in the terms, conditions or status of the Participant’s employment or service, provided that the Participant continues to be an employee of, or in service to, the Corporation or an Affiliate.

(n)Shareholder Approval: The Plan is subject to approval by the shareholders of the Corporation, which approval must occur, if at all, within 12 months of the Effective Date of the Plan. Awards granted prior to such shareholder approval shall be conditioned upon and shall be effective only upon approval of the Plan by such shareholders on or before such date.

(o)Fractional Shares: Except as otherwise provided by an Award Agreement or the Administrator, (i) the total number of shares issuable pursuant to the exercise, vesting or earning of an Award shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (ii) no fractional shares shall be issued. The Administrator may, in its discretion, determine that a fractional share shall be settled in cash.
