(d) Treatment of Company Equity Incentives. From and after the Effective Date, the provisions of the applicable award agreements evidencing the options to purchase common shares of the Company owned by the undersigned (the “Options”) that require that the Options be exercised within specified periods of time following the undersigned’s termination of employment or services (the “Post Termination Exercise Provisions”) shall no longer apply, such that the Options may be exercised as provided in the award agreements until the normal expiration dates applicable thereto.

Notwithstanding the preceding two sentences, the benefit of the immediately preceding two sentences is conditioned on the undersigned not engaging in an action that would constitute “Cause” under the Employment Agreement and ongoing compliance with this Agreement.
