Based on the above-mentioned review and discussions with management and our current and former independent registered public accounting firms, the Committee and Board of Directors approved that Big Sky Energy Corporation’s audited financial statements be included in its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2004, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Subsequent to this filing, an error was discovered in such financial statements and on September 19, 2005, the Audit Committee caused the Company to file a Form 8-K giving notice that such financials could not be relied upon.  On November 18, 2005, an amendment to Form 10-KSB for December 31, 2004, containing amended and restated financial statements was filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Committee and Board of Directors also approved the appointment, subject to shareholder approval, of BDO Kazakhstanaudit LLP, as our current independent registered public accounting firm.

Prior to December 31, 2004, we did not pay our directors any cash or stock compensation. Independent directors received stock options as compensation for their services to the Corporation. In 2005, we have begun to pay independent directors a cash amount of $5,000 per calendar year. Directors who are executive officers do not receive this cash payment. In addition, independent directors receive stock options for their service to the Corporation. The Corporation made this change in recognition that qualified independent directors are a valuable, scarce resource to the Corporation. We wish to remain competitive in our ability to attract qualified independent directors.

12

Effective May 10, 2005, the Board of Directors of Big Sky voted to start paying independent directors a stipend of US$4,000 per calendar quarter.  Such payments commenced June 30, 2005.  Directors who are executive officers do not receive this cash payment. Prior to May 10, 2005, we solely reimbursed directors for out-of-pocket expenses for attending board and committee meetings and we did not provide additional compensation for committee participation or special assignments of the board of directors.

On May 10, 2005, the Board approved the following fee and payment schedule:

•

a stipend of $5,000 per year for independent directors only;

•

an attendance fee for each Board meeting of $5,000 per meeting;  

•

where a director attends the meeting via remote communication, the fee is $3,000 for the first such meeting and $1,000 for any subsequent remote attendance;  

•

attendance fee for each Board committee meeting shall be $1,500.  Most committee meetings may be conducted by phone;

•

additional work performed by a member as per Chairman’s request will be compensated with $1,500 per event; and  

•

for being Chairman of a committee, $5,000 per year.

Our independent directors have also been granted stock options to purchase shares of our common stock.  The terms of stock option grants made to independent directors are determined by the board of directors.  See “Option Grants”.   Directors will be compensated for actual expenses related to the meetings attended.

The report of Deloitte & Touche accompanying the audit for our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2004, as included in Form 10-KSB/A, was not qualified or qualified as to audit scope or accounting principles. However, such report did contain a modification with regards to substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

During our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2004, preceding the date of resignation there were no disagreements between us and Deloitte & Touche on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statements disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.

PROPOSAL 3 – APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO THE

BIG SKY ENERGY CORPORATION STOCK AWARD PLAN

General

The Board of Directors and the Shareholders approved the China Broadband Corp. 2000 Stock Plan (the "2000 Stock Option Plan") on April 13, 2000 and June 29, 2001, respectively.  The 2000 Stock Option Plan was then amended at the Company’s last annual meeting of shareholders held on December 3, 2004. The purpose of the 2000 Stock Option Plan is to enable us to attract and retain the services of eligible employees and consultants and to provide them with increased incentive to exert their best efforts on our behalf by increasing their personal stake in Big Sky Energy Corporation. The Nominating & Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has amended the 2000 Stock Option Plan in the following manner, pending shareholder approval:

1)

The 2000 Stock Option Plan will henceforth be referred to as the “Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan”.

2)

The number of shares of our common stock authorized for issuance will increase from 15,000,000 to no less than 15% of the issued and outstanding shares at any given time.  The shares underlying the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan have not been registered.

3)

The shareholders will authorize the Board of Directors, in cases that the Board deems are necessary and reasonable, to grant options with automatic and full vesting. Under the previously amended 2000 Stock Option Plan, all options vested over a period of four (4) years, with the first vesting to occur not until one (1) year from the grant date. Under the proposed amendment to the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan, the Board would empower the Plan Administrator to determine a vesting schedule appropriate to the grant being awarded so as to permit the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan to support staffing and consultancy opportunities that the Board believes is in the Company’s best interests.

Summary of the Plan

Under the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan, the Board of Directors or a committee thereof shall administer the plan.  The administrator may grant incentive or non-qualified options and restricted stock to our directors, officers, employees and consultants.  As of November 18, 2005, our Board has granted options exercisable to acquire 15,160,000 shares of common stock.

The plan is intended to retain the services of our valued key employees and consultants and others that the plan administrator may select to:

encourage our employees and consultants to acquire a greater proprietary interest in Big Sky Energy Corporation;

•

serve as an aid and inducement in the hiring of new employees; and

•

provide an equity incentive to consultants and others selected by the Board of Directors and the plan administrator.

The primary difference between "incentive stock options" and non-qualified options is the tax treatment of the option holder.  If a holder complies with Internal Revenue Service rules regarding incentive stock options, a holder of an incentive stock can defer recognition of income for tax purposes until the shares underlying the options are sold.  A holder of a non-qualified option generally recognizes income on the date of exercise.  Incentive stock options may be granted to any individual who, at the time the option is granted, is an employee of Big Sky Energy Corporation or any related corporation.  Non-qualified stock options may be granted to employees and to others at the discretion of the plan administrator.  Participants in the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan are obligated to pay to the Company an amount required to be withheld under applicable tax laws.

The plan administrator fixes the exercise price for options in the exercise of its sole discretion, except that the exercise price for an incentive stock option must be at least the fair market value per share of the common stock at the date of grant (as determined by the plan administrator in good faith), or in the case of greater-than ten percent shareholders, at least one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the fair market value per share.  The exercise price may be paid in cash or, with the approval of the plan administrator, by other means, including withholding of option shares, delivery of previously held shares, a promissory note or cancellation of indebtedness by the Company to the optionee.  

The closing bid price of Big Sky’s common stock, as quote on the Over-the-Counter/Bulletin Board, under the symbol “BSKO”, as of November 18, 2005, was $1.17.

17

Options granted and restricted stock awards under the plan vest, unless otherwise determined by the plan administrator, over a three-year period, with one-third becoming exercisable at the end of one year of continuous status as an employee or consultant and the remaining two-thirds vesting pro rata annually over the balance of the term, unless otherwise determined  by the plan administrator.  The plan administrator may accelerate the vesting of options in its sole discretion.  Any unexercised portion of an option which expires or becomes unexercisable for any reason becomes available for future grant under the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan.  Any shares of restricted stock awarded under the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan which rights have not vested shall be returned to the Company and may be used for future awards under the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan. Options are non-transferable except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or subject to a qualified domestic relations order.  With some exceptions, vested but unexercised options terminate upon the earlier of:

•

the expiration of the option term specified by the plan administrator at the date of grant;

•

the expiration of 1 years  from the date of an optionee's termination of services with us or any related corporation; or

•

the expiration of one year from the date of death or disability (as defined in the plan) of the optionee.

If an optionee's services are terminated by death, any option held by the optionee is exercisable only by the person or persons to whom such optionee's rights under the option pass by the optionee's will or by the laws of descent and distribution of the state or county of the optionee's domicile at the time of death.  Unless accelerated in accordance with the plan, unvested options terminate immediately upon termination of services of the optionee by us for any reason, including death or disability.  The plan administrator may amend or modify the plan, except that no amendment with respect to an outstanding option may be made over the objection of the holder of the option (other than those provisions triggering acceleration of vesting of outstanding options).

In the event of a proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the plan administrator must notify the participants as least fifteen (15) days prior to such proposed transaction and to the extent not previously exercised, awards will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such action.

In the event of a Change of Control, as defined in the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan, each option that is outstanding shall automatically accelerate so that each option shall become 100% vested immediately prior to the specified effective date for the Change of Control unless it is determined that:

a)

it would render unavailable “pooling of interest” accounting for a transaction that would otherwise qualify for such accounting treatment; or

b)

such option is to be assumed by the successor corporation or replaced with a comparable award for the purchase of shares of the stock of the successor corporation.

If such award is assumed or replaced in the Change of Control, vesting of all of the unvested shares subject to such award shall be accelerated in the event the participant’s services should subsequently terminate within six months following the Change of Control, unless the services are terminate by the Company for Good Reason, as defined in the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan.

Stock Option Agreement Summary

In addition to the terms in the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan, our standard stock option agreement and exercise notice include the following additional terms and conditions:

18

a)

If requested by the Company or any representative of underwriters (the “Managing Underwriter”) in connection with any registration of an offering of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, the optionee agrees not sell or transfer any shares or other securities of the Company during the 180-day period (or such other period as may be requested in writing by the Managing Underwriter and agreed to in writing by the Company) following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act.  Such restriction shall apply only to the first registration statement of the Company to become effective under the Securities Act that includes securities to be sold on behalf of the Company to the public in an underwritten public offering under the Securities Act.

b)

Before any shares held by the optionee may be sold, the Company has a right of first refusal to purchase the shares. This Right of First Refusal shall terminate upon the completion of a proposed transfer of the shares obtained by exercising of an option to an unrelated third party.

5.2

Type of Award.  Each Award shall be designated in the Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option, or as Restricted Stock.  If not so designated, the Award will be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option.  Notwithstanding any such designations, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Options designated as Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any Optionee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options.  For purposes of this requirement, Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to an Incentive Stock Option shall be determined as of the date of the grant of such Option.

SECTION 6.  AWARDS OF OPTIONS

6.1

Term of Option.  The term of each Option shall be the term stated in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that the term shall be no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement.  However, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement.

6.2

Option Exercise Price.  The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator, except that (i) in the case of an Incentive Stock Option that is granted to an Employee who, at the time of the grant of such Incentive Stock Option, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant, and (ii) in the case of an Incentive Stock Option that is granted to any other Employee, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

6.3

Consideration.  The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall be determined at the time of grant) and may consist entirely of (i) cash or check, (ii) cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to Optionee, (iii) promissory note (subject to approval by the Company), (iv) surrender of other Shares that (A) have been owned by Optionee for more than six months on the date of surrender or such other period as may be required to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings, and (B) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of Shares to be purchased by Optionee as to which such Option shall be exercised, (v) if there is a public market for the Shares and they are registered under the Securities Act, delivery of a properly executed exercise notice together with such other documentation as the Administrator and the broker, if applicable, shall require to effect an exercise of the Option and delivery to the Company of the sale or loan proceeds required to pay the aggregate exercise price and any applicable income or employment taxes, (vi) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment, or (vii) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted under Applicable Laws.  In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Administrator shall consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit the Company or result in the recognition of compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) for financial reporting purposes.

6.4

Vesting of Options

(a)

Vesting Schedule.  No Option will be exercisable until it has vested.  The Administrator will specify the vesting schedule for each Option at the time of grant of the Option, prior to the provision of services with respect to which such Option is granted; provided that if no vesting schedule is specified at the time of grant, the following vesting schedule shall apply:  

The Option shall vest in full over the course of four years from date of grant as follows:  twenty five percent (25%) of the total number of Shares granted under the Option shall vest after one (1) year of Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant; and the remaining seventy-five percent (75%) of the Shares granted under the Option shall vest pro rata monthly, on the same date of the month as the date of grant of the option, over the following thirty-six (36) months of Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant.  The Administrator may specify a vesting schedule for all or any portion of an Option based on the achievement of performance objectives with respect to the Company, a Parent or Subsidiary, and/or Optionee, and as shall be permissible under the terms of the Plan.

(b)

Acceleration of Vesting.  The Administrator may accelerate the vesting of one or more outstanding Options at such times and in such amounts as it determines in its sole discretion.  The vesting of Options may also be accelerated in connection with a corporate transaction, as described below.

6.5

Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder. An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Option by the person entitled to exercise the Option and the Company has received full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.  Full payment may, as authorized by the Administrator, consist of any consideration and method of payment as described above.  Until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) of the stock certificate evidencing such Shares, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option.  The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly upon exercise of the Option.  No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 9 of the Plan.  Exercise of an Option in any manner shall result in a decrease in the number of Shares that thereafter may be available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.

6.6 Exercises After Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship

(a)

Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship.  Except as otherwise provided herein, in the event of termination of a Participant’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant with the Company, such Participant may exercise his or her Option to the extent that Participant was entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination, but only within three (3) months after the date of such termination, or such other longer period of time as is determined by the Administrator, provided that no Option which is exercised after such three month period will be treated as an Incentive Stock Option, and that in no event may an Option be exercised later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement.  To the extent that Participant was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date of such termination, or if Participant does not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Option should terminate.  No termination shall be deemed to occur and this paragraph shall not apply if (i) Participant is a Consultant who becomes an Employee; or (ii) Participant is an Employee who becomes a Consultant; or (iii) Participant transfers employment among the company and its subsidiaries.

(b)

 Disability of Participant.  Notwithstanding the provisions set forth above, in the event of termination of a Participant’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant as a result of his or her Disability, Participant may, but only within twelve (12) months (or, with respect to a Nonqualified Stock Option, such other longer period of time, if any, as is determined by the Administrator) after the date of such termination (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise the Option to the extent he or she is otherwise entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination.  To the extent that Participant was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date of termination, or if Participant does not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Option should terminate.

(c)

Death of Participant.  In the event of the death of a Participant during the period of Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant, or within thirty (30) days following the termination of Participant’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant, the Option may be exercised, at any time within twelve (12) months (or, with respect to a Nonqualified Stock Option, such other longer period of time, if any, as is determined by the Administrator) after the date of death (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), by Participant’s estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent Participant was entitled to exercise the Option at the date of death or, if earlier, the date of termination of the Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant.  To the extent that Participant was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date of death or termination, as the case may be, or if Participant or the Participant’s estate (or, as applicable, heirs, personal representative, executor or administrator) does not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

6.7

Rule 16b-3.  Options granted to Reporting Persons shall comply with Rule 16b-3 and shall contain such additional conditions or restrictions as may be required hereunder to qualify for the maximum exemption for Plan transactions.

6.8

Buyout Provisions.  The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares, an Option previously granted, based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to Optionee at the time that such offer is made.

SECTION 7.  RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

7.1

Grant of Restricted Stock Awards.  Each Restricted Stock Award (i) shall be for a number of Shares determined by the Administrator, and (ii) shall require the Restricted Stock Holder to maintain Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant for a restricted period determined by the Administrator in order for the restrictions related to such Shares to lapse.  The restrictions and the duration of the restricted period will be set forth in the Restricted Stock Agreement.  The restricted period need not be the same for all Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Award.  For vesting purposes, credit for service as an Employee or Consultant prior to the actual grant of the Restricted Stock Award may be given as part of the Restricted Stock Award.  

7.2

Consideration for Restricted Stock Awards.  Restricted Stock may be sold or awarded under the Plan for such consideration as the Administrator may determine, including (without limitation) cash, cash equivalents, full-recourse promissory notes (subject to approval by the Plan Administrator), past services and future services.

7.3

Rights of a Restricted Stock Holder.  Except for such restrictions, and subject to provisions under the Plan relating to adjustments to Awards, conditions on issuance of shares, and termination of the Participant’s relationship with the Company, a Restricted Stock Holder shall have all the rights of a shareholder, including but not limited to the right to receive all cash dividends paid on such Restricted Stock and the right to vote such Restricted Stock.  Dividends paid in securities or other property or stock received in connection with a stock split or other distribution with respect to the Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock.

7.4

Vesting of Restricted Stock.  The restrictions imposed herein shall lapse, and the Participant’s rights in the Restricted Stock shall vest, in accordance with the schedule provided in the Restricted Stock Agreement.  If not so specified in such Restricted Stock Agreement, the restrictions shall lapse according to the following schedule:  restrictions on 25% of the Shares shall lapse after one year of Continuous Service as an Employee or Consultant; the remaining 75% of Shares shall vest pro rata monthly on the last day of each calendar month over the following 36 months of Continuous Service as an Employee or Consultant.  Upon the vesting of the Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan, the Restricted Stock Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate representing the number of shares of Restricted Stock, as to which restrictions no longer apply, with the remaining shares of Restricted Stock subject to the foregoing restrictions.  The Restricted Stock Holder shall execute a new stock power with respect to any remaining Shares, which are restricted.  The Restricted Stock Holder shall be entitled to receive certificates for any Restricted Stock as to which the Restricted Stock Holder's interest has become vested as provided herein, and the Company shall issue the Restricted Stock Holder such certificates.  

7.5

Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship.  If a Restricted Stock Holder ceases to maintain his or her Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant for any reason (other than death or Disability), Restricted Stock theretofore awarded to such Restricted Stock Holder and which at the time of such termination of his or her Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant is subject to the restrictions imposed by this Section shall, upon such termination of his or her Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant, be forfeited and returned to the Company and the Restricted Stock Holder shall have no further claim to or interest in such Restricted Stock.  If a Restricted Stock Holder ceases to maintain his or her Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant by reason of death or Disability, such Restricted Stock awarded to such Restricted Stock Holder which, at the time of such termination of his or her Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant, is subject to the restrictions imposed by this Section, shall be free of restrictions and shall not be forfeited.

7.6

Issuance of Restricted Stock.  Where shares of common stock are issued, the Administrator shall request of the Company that each certificate in respect of Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan be registered in the name of the Restricted Stock Holder.  The Restricted Stock Holder shall provide a stock power endorsed in blank to the Company and any certificate representing the Restricted Stock shall bear the following (or a similar) legend:

“The transferability of this certificate and the securities represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) contained in the Big Sky Energy Corporation Stock Award Plan and any and all amendments thereto.  Copies of such Plan are on file in the offices of Big Sky Energy Corporation”

7.7

Adjustments to Restricted Stock Awards.  The Administrator may, in anticipation of a Change in Control, make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of outstanding Restricted Stock, as the Administrator in its sole discretion determines are equitably warranted under the circumstances, including declaring that any Restricted Stock Award not vested shall become fully vested.  The Administrator in its discretion shall have the right to accelerate the time at which the Restricted Stock shall become vested and may do so as to one or more Restricted Stock Holders.

7.8

Restricted Stock Agreement.  At the time of a Restricted Stock Award, the Participant shall enter into a Restricted Stock Agreement with the Company agreeing to the terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Award and such other matters, as the Company shall in its sole discretion determine.

7.9

Return of Unvested Restricted Stock.  Any Shares of Restricted Stock as to which rights have not vested in accordance with this Plan and as to which a Restricted Stock Holder no longer has any rights under this Plan shall be returned to the Company which thereafter shall have all rights of ownership and which may use such shares for further Awards under this Plan.

SECTION 8.  STOCK WITHHOLDING TO SATISFY

WITHHOLDING TAX OBLIGATIONS

8.1

Withholding Tax.  At the discretion of the Administrator, Participants may satisfy withholding obligations as provided in this paragraph.  When a Participant incurs tax liability in connection with an Award, which tax liability is subject to tax withholding under applicable tax laws (including, without limitation, income and payroll withholding taxes), and Participant is obligated to pay the Company an amount required to be withheld under applicable tax laws, Participant may satisfy the withholding tax obligation by one or some combination of the following methods: (a) by cash payment, (b) out of Participant’s current compensation, (c) if permitted by the Administrator, in its discretion, by surrendering to the Company Shares that (i) have been owned by Participant for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender or such other period as may be required to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings, and (ii) have a fair market value on the date of surrender equal to (or less than, if other consideration is paid to the Company to satisfy the withholding obligation) Participant’s marginal tax rate times the ordinary income recognized, plus an amount equal to the Participant’s share of any applicable payroll withholding taxes, or (d) if permitted by the Administrator, in its discretion, by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Award, if any, that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.  For this purpose, the Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined (the “Tax Date”).  In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Administrator shall consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit the Company or result in the recognition of compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) for financial reporting purposes.

8.2

Reporting Persons.  Any surrender by a Reporting Person of previously owned Shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations arising upon exercise of this Award must comply with the applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3 and shall be subject to such additional conditions or restrictions as may be required hereunder to qualify for the maximum exemption from Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to Plan transactions.

8.3

Form of Election.  All elections by a Participant to have Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations shall be made in writing in a form acceptable to the Administrator and shall be subject to the following additional restrictions:

(a) the election must be made on or prior to the applicable Tax Date;

(b) once made, the election shall be irrevocable as to the particular Shares of the Award as to which the election is made;

(c) if Participant is a Reporting Person, the election must comply with the applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3 and shall be subject to such additional conditions or restrictions as may be required hereunder to qualify for the maximum exemption from Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to Plan transactions; and

(d) all elections shall be subject to the consent or disapproval of the Administrator.

8.4

Deferral of Tax Date.  In the event the election to have Shares withheld is made by a Participant and the Tax Date is deferred under Section 83 of the Code because no election is filed under Section 83(b) of the Code, Participant shall receive the full number of Shares with respect to which the Award is exercised but such Participant shall be unconditionally obligated to tender back to the Company the proper number of Shares on the Tax Date.

SECTION 9.  ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES

IN CAPITALIZATION; CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS

9.1

Changes in Capitalization.  Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Option, and the number of Shares that have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or that have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Award, as well as the price per Share covered by each such outstanding Award, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.”  The Administrator, whose determination, shall make such adjustment in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive.  Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an Award.

9.2

Dissolution or Liquidation.  In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify Participants at least fifteen (15) days prior to such proposed action.  To the extent not previously exercised, Awards will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

9.3

Change in Control Transactions.  Except as otherwise provided in the instrument that evidences the Option, in the event of any Change in Control, each Option that is at the time outstanding shall automatically accelerate so that each such Option shall, immediately prior to the specified effective date for the Change in Control, become 100% vested.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, vesting of shares subject to such Option shall not so accelerate if and to the extent that (i) in the opinion of the Company’s accountants, it would render unavailable “pooling of interest” accounting for a transaction that would otherwise qualify for such accounting treatment; or (ii) such Option is, in connection with the Change in Control, either to be assumed by the successor corporation or parent thereof or to be replaced with a comparable award for the purchase of shares of the capital stock of the successor corporation or its parent corporation.  If the Administrator determines that such an assumption or replacement will be made, the Administrator shall give notice of such determination to the Participants and of the provisions of such assumption or replacement, and any adjustments made (i) to the number and kind of shares subject to the outstanding Awards (or to the options in substitution therefore), (ii) to the exercise prices, and/or (iii) to the terms and conditions of the stock options.  Any such determination shall be made in the sole discretion of the Administrator and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all Participants.  If such Award is assumed or replaced in the Change in Control and is not otherwise accelerated at that time, vesting of all of the unvested shares subject to such Award shall be accelerated in the event the Participant’s employment or services should subsequently terminate within six months following such Change in Control, unless such employment or services are terminated by the Company for Cause or by the Participant voluntarily without Good Reason.  All unexercised Awards shall terminate and cease to remain outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation or an affiliate thereof.

9.4

Certain Distributions.  In the event of any distribution to the Company’s shareholders of securities of any other entity or other assets (other than dividends payable in cash or stock of the Company) without receipt of consideration by the Company, the Administrator may, in its discretion, appropriately adjust the price per share of Common Stock covered by each outstanding Option to reflect the effect of such distribution.

SECTION 10.  GENERAL

10.1

Non-Transferability Of Options.  Unless otherwise provided under the Option Agreement, Options may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution, and may be exercised or purchased during the lifetime of Optionee, only by Optionee.

10.2

Time Of Granting Options.  The date of grant of an Award shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award, or the Administrator determines such later date as.  Notice of the determination shall be given to each Employee or Consultant to whom an Award is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

10.3

Conditions Upon Issuance Of Shares.  Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option and the issuance and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated there under, and the requirements of any Stock Exchange.  As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Company may require the person exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by law.

10.4

Amendment and Termination.  The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration, suspension or discontinuation shall be made that would impair the rights of any Participant under any grant theretofore made, unless mutually agreed otherwise, which agreement must be in writing and signed by Participant and the Company.  In addition, to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Rule 16b-3 or with Section 422 of the Code (or any other applicable law or regulation, including the requirements of any Stock Exchange), the Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required.

10.5

Reservation Of Shares.  The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.  The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

10.6

Information To Optionees.  At the time of issuance of any securities under the Plan, the Company shall provide to Optionee a copy of the Plan and a copy of any agreement(s) pursuant to which securities granted under the Plan are issued.

10.7

Employment Relationship.  The Plan shall not confer upon any Participant any right with respect to continuation of employment or consulting relationship with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with such Participant’s right or the Company’s right to terminate his or her employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or without cause.

10.8

Term Of Plan.  The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of its adoption by the Board of Directors or its approval by the shareholders of the Company.  It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated as permitted herein.

10.9

Shareholder Approval.  Continuance of the Plan shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is adopted.  Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner required under applicable state and federal law and the rules of any Stock Exchange upon which the Common Stock is listed and in accordance with the Company’s bylaws.  In the event such approval is not obtained in a timely manner, no Option granted hereunder shall be treated as an Incentive Stock Option.
