3.       Shares of Common Stock Subject to the Plan


         3.1. Number of Shares. Subject to the following provisions of this Section 3, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to all Awards under the Plan is 2,200,000 shares of Common Stock, 1,700,000 shares of which are reserved for issuance pursuant to the exercise of Options, and 500,000 shares of which are reserved for Restricted Stock Awards.

The Board shall also have discretionary authority to interpret the Plan, to make all factual determinations under the Plan, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for Plan administration. The Board may prescribe, amend, and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan. All interpretations, determinations, and actions by the Board shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon all parties.


5.       Eligibility and Awards


         All Eligible Persons are eligible to be designated by the Board to receive an Award under the Plan. The Board has authority, in its sole discretion, to determine and designate from time to time those Eligible Persons who are to be granted Awards, the types of Awards to be granted and the number of shares subject to the Awards that are granted under the Plan. To the extent not documented in a separate agreement, each Award will be evidenced by an Award Agreement between the Corporation and the Participant that shall include such terms and conditions (consistent with the Plan) as the Board may determine; provided, however, that failure to issue an Award Agreement shall not invalidate an Award.


6.

Stock Options




6.1.      Grant of Options. An Eligible Participant may be granted one or more Options. Options granted under the Plan will be Non-Statutory Options.

6.2.      Option Agreements. Each Option granted under the Plan will be evidenced by a written Option Agreement in the form of Exhibit I hereto that will be entered into by the Company and the Eligible Participant to whom the Option is granted (the “Option Holder”), and will be deemed to contain the following terms and conditions, unless other terms and conditions inconsistent therewith have been entered into the Option Agreement. In the event of inconsistency between the provisions of the Plan and any Option Agreement entered into, the provisions of the Option Agreement will be considered to have been determined to be exceptional from the below and such Option Agreement shall govern where not inconsistent with law. However, the provisions of the Plan will govern where the Option Agreement omits to provide for a matter governed by the Plan and the Option Agreement will not be incomplete nor unenforceable if it fails to provide for a matter provided by the terms of this Plan as such shall be incorporated by reference:

(a) Number of Shares. Each Option Agreement will state that it covers a specified number of Shares, as determined by the Board and the Option Agreement. If the Option Agreement fails to state the number then it shall be the number set forth in the minutes of the Board.

(b) Price. The price (“Option Price”) at which each Share covered by an Option may be purchased will be determined by the Board and set forth in the Option Agreement. Where the price shall be omitted the price shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date set forth at the beginning of the Option Agreement.

(c) Vesting Period. Each Option will state the time and the amount of the Shares of the Option which vest, and are exercisable thereafter, at specified times during the Option Period.

(d) Duration of Options. Each Option Agreement will state the period of time within which the Option may be exercised by the Option Holder (the “Option Period”). The Option Period shall expire not more than five years from the date an Option is granted. Unless otherwise stated, director and senior officer Options shall be the lesser of five years or the term of their office plus 30 days, Employee Options the lesser of five years or the term of their employment plus 30 days, and other Option Holders the lesser of five years or the term of the engagement agreement plus 30 days.

(e) Termination of Employment, Death, Disability Etc. Except as otherwise determined by the Board, each Option Agreement will provide as follows with respect to the exercise of the Option upon termination of the employment or the death of the Option Holder:

(i)      Termination. If the Option Holder’s employment or office with the Company is terminated within the Option Period for cause, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, or if the Option Holder resigns without appropriate or agreed notice and agreed termination terms, the Option will be void for all purposes immediately upon notice of termination or resignation, as the case may be, unless otherwise agreed solely at the discretion of the Company. Unless specified in an engagement agreement, “cause” means a material violation, as determined by the Company, of the Company’s established policies and procedures and the terms of engagement and a failure to rectify within 15 days of notice. If the Option Holder is terminated for another reason, not provided for below or in the engagement agreement or the Option agreement, then the Option shall be exercisable, as to the vested portion only on the date of termination, for a period of 30 days after termination, except as otherwise permitted by the sole discretion of the Board but not to exceed the Option Period. The effect of this Section will be limited to determining the consequences of a termination and nothing in this Section will restrict or otherwise interfere with the Company’s discretion with respect to the termination of any Employee.

(ii)      Death or Disability. If the Option Holder’s employment with the Company is terminated within the Option Period because of the Option Holder’s death or disability, the Option will remain exercisable, to the extent that it was vested and exercisable on the date of the Option Holder’s death or disability, for a period of one year after such date; provided, however, that in no event may the Option be exercised after the expiration of the Option Period.



 

(iii)      Non-Employees or non-Office Holders. For all purposes under this Section, an Eligible Person who is not an Employee or office holder of the Company will be considered to have a termination at the conclusion of the relevant contract or upon notice by the Company of termination for default or breach of agreement. If the contract is terminated for breach or default then the Option shall terminate immediately. Otherwise the Option shall terminate in accordance with its terms or Section 6.2(d) above.

(f) Transferability of Option. Each Option Agreement will provide that the Option and exercise rights granted therein are not transferable or subject to assignment or lien for security purposes by the Option Holder except to the Option Holder’s legal representative, his estate, a family corporation or personal holding corporation, a bona fide lender or in such other circumstance as the Board may approve in its sole discretion, which may be exercised contrary without reason. Each assignment of an interest in an Option must be approved before such will be enforceable.

(g) Exercise, Payments, Etc. Unless otherwise provided by the Option Agreement the method for exercising the Option granted will be by delivery to the office of the Company of written notice specifying the particular Option (or portion thereof) that is being exercised and the number of Shares with respect to which such Option is exercised, together with payment of the Option Price. The exercise of the Option will be deemed effective upon actual receipt of such notice and payment to the Company of the Option Price in a form satisfactory to the Company, acting reasonably. The purchase of such Stock will take place at the principal offices of the Company upon delivery of such notice. A properly executed certificate or certificates representing the Stock will be issued by the Company and delivered to the Option Holder with reasonable dispatch. Unless restricted by the Option Agreement, the exercise price shall be paid by any of the following methods or any combination of the following methods:

(i)      in cash;

(ii)      by cashier’s check, certified cheque, or other acceptable banker’s note payable to the order of the Company;

(iii)      by delivery to the Company of a properly executed notice of exercise together with irrevocable instructions (referred to in the industry as ‘delivery against payment’) to a broker to deliver to the Company promptly the amount of the proceeds of the sale of all or a portion of the Stock or of a loan from the broker to the Option Holder necessary to pay the exercise price; or

(iv)      such other method as the Option Holder and the Board may determine as adequate including delivery of acceptable securities (including securities of the Company), set-off for wages or invoices due, property, or other adequate value.

(h) Date of Grant. An Option will be considered as having been granted on the date specified in the grant resolution of the Board of Directors.

(i) Stockholder Privileges. Prior to the exercise of the Option and the transfer of Shares to the Option Holder, an Option Holder will have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares subject to any Option granted to such person under this Plan and, until the Option Holder becomes the holder of the record of such Shares, no adjustments, other than those described in Section 3, will be made for dividends or other distributions or other rights to which there is a record date preceding the date such Option Holder becomes the holder of record of such Stock.

(j) Employment. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Option will confer upon any Eligible Person any right with respect to the continuation of employment by the Company, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company, subject to the terms of any separate employment agreement to the contrary, at any time to terminate such employment or to increase or decrease the compensation of such Eligible Person from the rate in existence at the time of the grant of an Option.


7.       Restricted Stock Awards


         7.1. Grant of Restricted Stock Awards. A Restricted Stock Award to a Participant represents shares of Common Stock that are issued subject to such restrictions on transfer and other incidents of ownership and



such forfeiture conditions as the Board may determine ("Restricted Shares"). In connection with issuance of any Restricted Shares, the Board may (but shall not be obligated to) require the payment of a specified purchase price (which price may be less than Fair Market Value).


         7.2. Vesting Requirements. The restrictions imposed on Restricted Shares issued under a Restricted Stock Award shall lapse in accordance with the vesting requirements specified by the Board in the Award Agreement, any other agreement covering the Restricted Stock Award or the Board resolution authorizing the Restricted Stock award.


         7.3. Restrictions. Restricted Shares may not be transferred or assigned (except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution), or subject to any encumbrance, pledge or charge until all applicable restrictions are removed or have expired, unless otherwise allowed by the Board. The Board may require the Participant to enter into an escrow agreement providing that the certificates representing the Restricted Shares will remain in the physical custody of an escrow holder until all restrictions are removed or have expired.  


         7.4. Rights as a Stockholder. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 7, the Participant will have all rights of a stockholder with respect to Restricted Shares held by him, including the right to vote the shares and receive all dividends and other distributions paid or made with respect thereto.



8.       General Provisions


         8.1. Securities Laws. No shares of Common Stock will be issued or transferred pursuant to an Award unless and until all then applicable requirements imposed by any federal, provincial and state securities and other laws, rules and regulations and by any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and by any stock exchanges upon which the Common Stock may be listed, have been fully met. As a condition precedent to the issuance of shares pursuant to an Award, the Corporation may require the Participant to take any reasonable action to meet such requirements. The Board may impose such conditions on any shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under the requirements of any stock exchange upon which such shares of the same class are then listed, and under any blue sky or other securities laws applicable to such shares.


         8.2. Tax Withholding. The Participant shall be responsible for payment of any taxes or similar charges required by law to be withheld from an Award or an amount paid in satisfaction of an Award, which shall be paid by the Participant on or prior to the payment or other event that results in taxable income in respect of an Award. The Award Agreement shall specify the manner in which the withholding obligation shall be satisfied with respect to the particular type of Award.



         8.3. Plan Binding on Transferees. The Plan shall be binding upon the Corporation, its transferees and assigns, and the Participant, his executor, administrator and permitted transferees and beneficiaries.


         8.4. Construction and Interpretation. Whenever used herein, unless the context requires otherwise, nouns in the singular shall include the plural, and the masculine pronoun shall include the feminine gender. Headings of Sections and paragraphs hereof are inserted for convenience and reference and constitute no part of the Plan.


        8.5. Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction.


         8.6. Governing Law. The validity and construction of this Plan and of the Award Agreements shall be governed by the laws of the British Virgin Islands.




9.      Effective Date, Termination and Amendment


         9.1. Effective Date. The Plan shall become effective on the date of its adoption by the Board.


         9.2. Termination. The Plan shall terminate on the date immediately preceding the tenth anniversary of the date the Plan is adopted by the Board.  The Board may, in its sole discretion and at any earlier date, terminate the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no termination of the Plan shall adversely affect any Award theretofore granted without the consent of the Participant or the permitted transferee of the Award.


         9.3. Amendment. The Board may at any time and from time to time and in any respect, amend or modify the Plan. No amendment or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect any Award theretofore granted without the consent of the Participant or the permitted transferee of the Award.

Witnesseth:


WHEREAS, Optionee has rendered to the Company certain services and it is expected that Optionee will continue to render services to the Company; and


WHEREAS, The Company wishes to compensate Optionee for such services by the grant of an option to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued pursuant to the Company’s 2009 Restricted Stock/Option Plan.


NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants herein set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the Company and the Optionee, the parties hereto agree as follows:


1.  Grant of Option.  The Company hereby irrevocably grants to the Optionee, for the term and upon the conditions hereinafter provided, the right and option (the “Option”) to purchase ________________ shares of the Company’s Common Stock, no par value  per share (the “Stock”).  The Optionee is limited in the amount of this Option it may exercise.  In no event shall the Optionee be entitled to exercise any amount of this Option in excess of that amount upon exercise of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned (as such term is defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”) by the Optionee,  and (2) the number of shares of Stock issuable upon the exercise of any Options then owned by Optionee, would result in beneficial ownership by the Optionee of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, as determined in accordance with Rule13d-1(j) under the 1934 Act.  Furthermore, the Company shall not process any exercise that would result in beneficial ownership by the Optionee of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.

3.

The Option shall become exercisable on the following basis:

Amount of Option Exercisable




4.  Optionee’s Right As Stockholder.  The Optionee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Stock covered by the Option until the date of the exercise of the Option and the issuance of the shares of Stock granted pursuant to the Option and then only to the extent that there has been issued one or more certificates for such shares of Stock to said Optionee upon the due exercise in whole or in part of the Option. No adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary,  whether in cash, securities or



other property) or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate or certificates are issued.


5.  Non-transferability and Representations of Optionee.  This Option shall not be transferable, and the Option may be exercised only by the Optionee.  Furthermore, the Option (a) may not be assigned or transferred, pledged, or hypothecated in any way, (b) shall not be assignable or transferable by operation of law, and (c) shall not be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process.  Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, or other disposition of the Option contrary to the provisions hereof, and the levy of any execution, attachment, or similar process upon the Option, shall be null and void and without force or effect.


6.  Changes in Capital Structure.  The number of shares of Stock covered by the Option, and the price per share thereof as set forth in this Agreement, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company resulting from a subdivision or consolidation of shares or the payment of a stock dividend (but only on the Common Stock of the Company) or any other increase or decrease in the number of the shares of Common Stock of the Company effected without receipt of consideration by the Company.  If the Company shall be the surviving corporation in any merger of consolidation, the Option shall pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to the Option would have been entitled.  A dissolution or liquidation of the Company or a merger of consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation shall cause the Option to terminate, provided that the Optionee shall, in such event, have the right during the twenty-one (21) day period immediately prior to such dissolution or liquidation, or merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, as the case may be, to exercise this Option in whole or in part.  The Company shall provide at least thirty (30) days’ notice to the Optionee of any such pending dissolution, liquidation, or merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, and shall inform the Optionee of the right to exercise the Option within the specified twenty-one (21) day period.

In the event of a change in the Common Stock of the Company as presently constituted, which is limited to a change of all of its authorized shares with par value into the same number of shares with a different par value, such change shall be deemed to be the Stock within the meaning of the Option.

To the extent that the foregoing adjustments relate to stock or securities of the Company, such adjustments shall be made by the Board of Directors in their sole and absolute discretion and the Board of Directors’ determination in the respect shall be final, binding and conclusive.

Except as expressly provided above in this paragraph 6, the Optionee shall have no rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class or the payment of any stock dividend or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or by reason of any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation or spin-off of assets or stock of another corporation, and any issue by the Company of shares of stock of any class, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Stock subject to the Option.  The grant of the Option to the Optionee pursuant to the Agreement shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of the Company’s capital or business structure or to merge or to consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate or sell, or transfer all or any part of the Company’s business or assets.

No adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or property) or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date a certificate or certificates is or are issued to the Optionee with respect to the Optionee’s exercise of this Option, except as expressly provided in this paragraph 6.

Any fractional shares of any class of stock or securities resulting from any adjustments provided for in this paragraph 6 shall be disregarded; under no circumstances shall the Company (or any other corporation) be required to issue or transfer any fractional shares of any class of stock or securities of the Company (or of any other corporation) as a result of any adjustments provided for in this paragraph 6 or to pay for, or otherwise compensate the holder of the Option for, any such fractional shares not so issued or transferred.


7.  Method of Exercising Option.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Option shall be exercised by the Optionee by the delivery of written notice to the Treasurer of the Company at the Company’s principal office within the time period as specified in paragraph 3 hereof (or within the time



periods specified in other applicable paragraphs hereof referred to in paragraph 3).  Such notice shall (a) state the election to exercise the Option, (b) specify the number of shares to which the election applies, and (c) specify the address to which the certificate or certificates for such shares of Stock is or are to be mailed and all other pertinent information.  Such notice shall be accompanied by payment of the full purchase price of such shares of Stock.  Payment of the purchase price shall be made in United States currency and may be paid in cash or by check payable to the order of the Company.  The certificate or certificates for the shares of Stock as to which the Option shall have been so exercised shall be registered in the name of the Optionee and shall be delivered as provided in the aforesaid notice.


8.  General.

(a) The Company shall (1) at all times during the terms of the Option reserve and keep available such number of shares of Stock as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this Agreement, (2) shall pay all original issue and transfer taxes with respect to the issue and transfer of shares of Stock pursuant to this Option and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Company in connection therewith, and (3) shall from time to time use its best efforts to comply with all laws and regulations which, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, shall be applicable thereto.

(b) The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of the Stock under this Option Agreement if the sale or issuance of such shares of Stock would constitute a violation by Optionee or the Company of any provisions of any federal or state law, rule or regulation, or of any provisions of any rule or regulation of any governmental authority (including, without limitation, any federal or state securities laws, rules and regulations).  The Company shall not be obligated to take any other affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of the Option, or the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant thereto, to comply with any such, law rule or regulation.

(c)  The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of the Stock under this Option Agreement if the delivery by Optionee of the notice specified in paragraph 7 hereof is either 31 days after the date of termination of Optionee’s employment or other engagement by the Company, or 31 days after the date of Optionee’s resignation from employment or other engagement by the Company.  


9.  Modification, Extension and Renewal of Option.  The Board of Directors of the Company may modify, extend, or renew the Option beyond the term specified in paragraph 3, or accept the surrender of the Option (to the extent not theretofore exercised).


10.  No Obligation to Exercise Option.  The granting of the Option shall impose no obligation upon the Optionee to exercise the Option.


11.  Construction.  This Option Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and shall be governed by, the laws of the British Virgin Islands.


12.  Waiver.  No waiver by any party hereto of any breach of any covenant, condition, or agreement hereof on the part of the parties hereto to be kept and performed shall be considered to constitute a waiver of any such covenant, condition or provision, or of any subsequent breach thereof.


13.  Severability.  In the event any court of competent jurisdiction shall declare any portion of this Option Agreement to be invalid, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be invalidated thereby, but shall remain in full force and effect.


14.  Notices.  Unless otherwise provided in this Option Agreement, no notice, request, consent, approval, acceptance, waiver or other communication which may be or is required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be effective unless the same is in writing and is either hand delivered or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, first-class postage prepaid, (1) if to the Optionee to _________________________________and (2) if to the Company, to Mossack Fonseca & Co., Akara Building, PO Box 3136, 24 De Castro Street, Wickhams Cay 1, Road Town, Tortola, BVI. or at any other address that may be given by one party to the other party by notice pursuant to this paragraph 14.  Unless otherwise provided in this Option Agreement, such notices, requests, consents, approvals, acceptances, waivers or other communications, if sent by registered or certified mail in accordance with this paragraph 14, shall be deemed to have been given at the time of mailing.




15.  Entire Agreement.  This Option Agreement incorporates the terms and conditions of the Plan and, together with such terms and conditions, contains all of the agreements and understandings between the parties hereto.  No oral agreements or written correspondence shall be held to affect the provisions hereof.  All subsequent changes and modifications, to be valid, shall be by written instrument executed by the Company and the Optionee.

1.4                        In the event of (a) the announcement of a takeover bid for some or all of the outstanding shares of the Company, or (b) a change of control (as defined herein) of the Company, then all of the Shares which have not been issued in accordance with Section 1.3 of this Agreement, shall immediately become issuable. For the purposes of this Section 1.4, a change of control shall have occurred when:

 

(a)

any person, corporation, company or other entity or combination of any such persons, corporations, companies or other entities acquires or becomes the beneficial owner of, directly or indirectly, whether through the acquisition of previously issued and outstanding voting securities or of voting securities which have not been previously issued, or any combination thereof or any other transaction having a similar effect, 20% or more of the voting securities of the Company; or


 

(b)

20% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company become subject to a voting trust.

1.5                        At such time as the Grantee's Business Relationship with the Company ceases for any reason, including death, then, in such event, any Shares that have not been issued in accordance with Section 1.3 hereof shall be automatically forfeited to the Company unless the Company otherwise notifies the Grantee.

1.6                        The issuance of the Shares shall not be construed as granting to the Grantee any right with respect to continuance of employment or any other Business Relationship by the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate at will the Grantee's employment or terminate a Business Relationship with the Grantee at any time (whether by dismissal, discharge or otherwise), with or without cause, is specifically reserved, subject to any other written employment or other agreement to which the Company and the Grantee may be a party.

1.7                        The Grantee understands that under Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the excess of the fair market value of the Shares on the date any forfeiture restrictions applicable to such Shares lapse over the purchase price paid for such Shares will be reportable as ordinary income at that time. The Grantee understands, however, that the Grantee may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are acquired hereunder, rather than when and as such Shares cease to be subject to such forfeiture restrictions, by filing an election  under Section 83(b) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement. THE GRANTEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE GRANTEE'S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY, AND NOT THE COMPANY’S, TO FILE A TIMELY ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF THE GRANTEE REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON THE GRANTEE’S BEHALF.

1.8                        The Company shall be entitled to withhold from the Grantee's compensation any amounts necessary to satisfy applicable tax withholding with respect to the grant and issuance of the Shares.

1.9                        The Grantee hereby agrees to take whatever additional actions and execute whatever additional documents the Company may in its reasonable judgment deem necessary or advisable in order to carry out or effect one or more of the obligations or restrictions imposed on the Grantee pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement.
