All retainers are to be paid in quarterly installments at the end of each calendar quarter. In the event that a director attends more than 6 board meetings or more than 6 meetings of any committee upon which they serve in one fiscal year, an additional per meeting fee of $1,000 for in person meetings or $500 for telephone meetings will be paid. If any such “excess” committee meeting is held on the same date as a board meeting, only the board meeting will be considered compensable.
Upon their initial election or appointment to the Board, each director will receive an award of 15,000 options. Upon their re-election to the Board each director will receive an award of 10,000 options. All such equity awards will be made as of the date of such election or appointment and in accordance with the terms of the Company’s applicable option plan.
