4.1       Total Number of Shares.

(a)       The total number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan shall be 2,210,000. Such shares may be either authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares, and shall be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3 of the Plan.

If there is a lapse, forfeiture, expiration, termination or cancellation of any Award for any reason, or if Shares are issued under such Award and thereafter are reacquired by the Company pursuant to rights reserved by the Company upon issuance thereof, the Shares subject to such Award or reacquired by the Company shall again be available for issuance pursuant to subsequent Awards, and shall not count towards the aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan.

In the event of any reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock distribution, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, subdivision, consolidation or exchange of shares, any change in the capital structure of the Company or any similar corporate transaction, the Board shall make such adjustments as it deems appropriate, in its sole discretion, to preserve the benefits or intended benefits of the Plan and Awards granted under the Plan. Such adjustments may include: (a) adjustment in the number and kind of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan; (b) adjustment in the number and kind of shares covered by outstanding Awards; (c) adjustment in the exercise price of outstanding Awards under the Plan; (d) adjustments to any of the shares limitations set forth in Section 4.1 or 4.2 of the Plan; and (e) any other changes that the Board determines to be equitable under the circumstances.

The grant of each Stock Option shall be evidenced by a written Stock Option Agreement specifying the type of Stock Option granted, the exercise period, the exercise price, the terms for payment of the exercise price, the expiration date of the Stock Option, the number of Shares to be subject to each Stock Option and such other terms and conditions established by the Board, in its sole discretion, not inconsistent with the Plan; provided, however, that no Stock Option shall be credited with any amounts equal to dividends and other distributions that a Participant would have received had he held the Shares subject to an unexercised Stock Option.

5.3       Exercise Price and Exercise Period.

With respect to each Stock Option granted to a Participant:

(a)       The exercise price, if any, shall be determined by the Board, consistent with the provisions of Section 3 hereof.

(b)       Each Stock Option shall become exercisable as provided in the Stock Option Agreement; provided that the Board shall have the discretion to accelerate the date as of which any Stock Option shall become exercisable in the event of the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company, or service on the Board, without cause (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion).

(c)       Each Stock Option shall expire, and all rights to purchase Shares thereunder shall expire, on the date ten years after the date of grant.

(a)       The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined with respect to each ISO at the time such Option is granted) of the Shares with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Key Employee during any calendar year (under all incentive stock option plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall not exceed $100,000. If the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of the Shares subject to an ISO which first becomes exercisable in any calendar year exceeds the limitation of this Section 5.4(a), so much of the ISO that does not exceed the applicable dollar limit shall be an ISO and the remainder shall be a NSO; but in all other respects, the original Stock Option Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

(b)       Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an ISO is granted to a Key Employee who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company (or its parent or subsidiaries within the meaning of Section 422(b)(6) of the Code): (i) the purchase price of each Share subject to the ISO shall be not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the ISO is granted; and (ii) the ISO shall expire, and all rights to purchase Shares thereunder shall expire, no later than the fifth anniversary of the date the ISO was granted.

(c)       No ISOs shall be granted under the Plan after ten years from the earlier of the date the Plan is adopted or approved by shareholders of the Company.

5.5       Exercise of Stock Options.

(a)       A Participant entitled to exercise a Stock Option may do so by delivering written notice to that effect specifying the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Option is being exercised and any other information the Board may prescribe. All notices or requests provided for herein shall be delivered to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company.

(b)       The Board in its sole discretion may make available one or more of the following alternatives for the payment of the Stock Option exercise price:

(i)       in cash;

(ii)      in cash received from a broker-dealer to whom the Participant has submitted an exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sales proceeds from the sale of the shares subject to the Stock Option to pay the exercise price;

(iii)     by directing the Company to withhold such number of Shares otherwise issuable in connection with the exercise of the Stock Option having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the exercise price;

(iv)     by delivering previously acquired Shares that are acceptable to the Board and that have an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the Stock Option exercise price; or

6

(v)      by certifying to ownership by attestation of such previously acquired Shares.

The Board shall have the sole discretion to establish the terms and conditions applicable to any alternative made available for payment of the Stock Option exercise price.

(c)       The Company shall issue, in the name of the Participant, stock certificates representing the total number of Shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of any Stock Option as soon as reasonably practicable after such exercise; provided that any Shares purchased by a Participant through a broker-dealer pursuant to Section 5.5(b)(ii) shall be delivered to such broker-dealer in accordance with 12 C.F.R. §220.3(e)(4) or other applicable provision of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in lieu of issuing stock certificates, may reflect the issuance of Shares to a Participant on a non–certificated basis, with the ownership of such shares by the Participant evidenced solely by book entry in the records of the Company’s transfer agent; provided however, that the Company, upon written request of the Participant, shall issue, in the name of the Participant, stock certificates representing such shares.

Section 6. Stock Awards.

6.1       Grant.

The Board may, in its discretion, (a) grant Shares under the Plan to any Participant without consideration from such Participant or (b) sell Shares under the Plan to any Participant for such amount of cash, Shares or other consideration as the Board deems appropriate.

6.2       Stock Award Agreement.

Each Share granted or sold hereunder shall be subject to such restrictions, conditions and other terms as the Board may determine at the time of grant or sale, the general provisions of the Plan, the restrictions, terms and conditions of the related Stock Award Agreement, and the following specific rules:

(b)       The restrictions to which the Shares awarded hereunder are subject shall lapse as provided in Stock Award Agreement; provided that the Board shall have the discretion to accelerate the date as of which the restrictions lapse with respect to any Award held by a Participant in the event of the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company, or service on the Board, without cause (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion).

(c)       Except as provided in this subsection (c) and unless otherwise set forth in the related Stock Award Agreement, the Participant receiving a grant of or purchasing Shares shall thereupon be a shareholder with respect to such shares and shall have the rights of a shareholder with respect to such shares, including the right to vote such shares and to receive dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such shares; provided that (i) in the case of a performance-based Stock Award as described in Section 3.3, any dividends or other distributions payable with respect to the Stock Award shall be accumulated and held by the Company and paid to the Participant only upon, and to the extent, the performance-based restrictions lapse in accordance with the terms of the applicable Stock Award Agreement and (ii) in the case of all other Stock Awards, the Board shall have the discretion to have the Company accumulate and hold such dividends or distributions. In either case, any such dividends or other distributions held by the Company attributable to the portion of a Stock Award that is forfeited shall also be forfeited.

7

(d)       The Company shall issue, in the name of the Participant, stock certificates representing the total number of Shares granted or sold to the Participant, as soon as may be reasonably practicable after such grant or sale, which shall be held by the Secretary of the Company until such time as the Shares are forfeited, resold to the Company, or the restrictions lapse. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in lieu of issuing stock certificates, may reflect the issuance of Shares to a Participant on a non–certificated basis, with the ownership of such shares by the Participant evidenced solely by book entry in the records of the Company’s transfer agent; provided, however that following the lapse of all restrictions with respect to the shares granted or sold to a Participant, the Company, upon the written request of the Participant, shall issue, in the name of the Participant, stock certificates representing such shares.

(e)       Shares granted to the Participant pursuant to this Section shall be effective and exercisable as of the Company’s completion of an initial public offering of its securities (the “IPO”) and other terms, restrictions and qualifications that may be set forth in the individual agreement.

Section 7. Stock Bonus Awards.

A Stock Bonus Award is an award to an eligible Key Employee or Director of Shares for services to be rendered or for past services already rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary. All Stock Bonus Awards shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement. No payment from the Participant will be required for Shares awarded pursuant to a Stock Bonus Award.

7.1.     Terms of Stock Bonus Awards. The Committee will determine the number of Shares to be awarded to the Participant under a Stock Bonus Award and any restrictions thereon. These restrictions may be based upon completion of a specified number of years of service with the Company or upon satisfaction of performance goals based on performance factors during any performance period as set out in advance in the Participant’s Stock Bonus Agreement. Prior to the grant of any Stock Bonus Award the Committee shall: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any performance period for the Stock Bonus Award; (b) select from among the performance factors to be used to measure performance goals; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the Participant. Performance periods may overlap and a Participant may participate simultaneously with respect to Stock Bonus Awards that are subject to different performance periods and different performance goals and other criteria.

7.2.     Form of Payment to Participant. Payment may be made in the form of cash, whole Shares, or a combination thereof as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares earned under a Stock Bonus Award on the date of payment.

7.3.     Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date Participant’s service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee).

Section 8. Stock Appreciation Right Awards.

A Stock Appreciation Right (“SAR”) is an award to an eligible Key Employee or Director that may be settled in cash, or Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock), having a value equal to (a) the difference between the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise over the exercise price multiplied by (b) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is being settled (subject to any maximum number of Shares that may be issuable as specified in an Award Agreement). All SARs shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement.

8

8.1.      Terms of SARs. The Committee will determine the terms of each SAR including, without limitation: (a) the number of Shares subject to the SAR; (b) the Exercise Price and the time or times during which the SAR may be settled; (c) the consideration to be distributed on settlement of the SAR; and (d) the effect of the Participant’s termination of service on each SAR. The Exercise Price of the SAR will be determined by the Committee when the SAR is granted, and may not be less than Fair Market Value. A SAR may be awarded upon satisfaction of performance factors, if any, during any performance period as are set out in advance in the Participant’s individual Award Agreement. If the SAR is being earned upon the satisfaction of performance factors, then the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for each SAR; and (y) select from among the performance factors to be used to measure the performance, if any. Performance periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to SARs that are subject to different performance factors and other criteria.

8.2.     Exercise Period and Expiration Date. A SAR will be exercisable within the times or upon the occurrence of events determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement governing such SAR. The SAR Agreement shall set forth the expiration date; provided that no SAR will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the SAR is granted. The Committee may also provide for SARs to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise (including, without limitation, upon the attainment during a performance period of performance goals based on performance factors), in such number of Shares or percentage of the Shares subject to the SAR as the Committee determines. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on the date Participant’s service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee).

8.3.     Form of Settlement. Upon exercise of a SAR, a Participant will be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying (a) the difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price; times (b) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. At the discretion of the Committee, the payment from the Company for the SAR exercise may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof. The portion of a SAR being settled may be paid currently or on a deferred basis with such interest or dividend equivalent, if any, as the Committee determines, provided that the terms of the SAR and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

8.4.     Termination of Service. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such date Participant’s service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee).

Section 9. Stock Unit Awards.

9.1       Grant.

The Board may, in its discretion, grant Stock Unit Awards to any Participant. Each Stock Unit subject to the Award shall entitle the Participant to receive, on the date or the occurrence of an event (including the attainment of performance goals) as described in the Stock Unit Award Agreement, a Share or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of such event as provided in the Stock Unit Award Agreement.

9

9.2       Stock Unit Agreement.

Each Stock Unit Award shall be subject to such restrictions, conditions and other terms as the Board may determine at the time of grant, the general provisions of the Plan, the restrictions, terms and conditions of the related Stock Unit Award Agreement and the following specific rules:

(a)       Shares issued to a Participant under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Unit Agreement, which shall specify such provisions, not inconsistent with the terms and conditions of the Plan, as the Board shall determine.

(b)       The restrictions to which the shares of Stock Units awarded hereunder are subject shall lapse as provided in Stock Unit Agreement; provided that the Board shall have the discretion to accelerate the date as of which the restrictions lapse with respect to any Award held by a Participant in the event of the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company, or service on the Board, without cause (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion).

(c)       Except as provided in this subsection (c) and unless otherwise set forth in the Stock Unit Agreement, the Participant receiving a Stock Unit Award shall have no rights of a shareholder, including voting or dividends or other distributions rights, with respect to any Stock Units prior to the date they are settled in Shares; provided that a Stock Unit Award Agreement may provide that until the Stock Units are settled in shares or cash, the Participant shall receive on each dividend or distribution payment date applicable to the Shares an amount equal to the dividends or other distributions that the Participant would have received had the Stock Units held by the Participant as of the related record date been actual Shares. In the case of a performance-based Stock Unit Award as described in Section 3.3 above, such amounts shall be accumulated and held by the Company and paid to the Participant only upon, and to the extent, the performance-based restrictions lapse in accordance with the terms of the applicable Stock Unit Award Agreement and in the case of all other Stock Unit Awards, the Board shall have the discretion to have the Company accumulate and hold such amounts. In either case, such amounts held by the Company attributable to the portion of the Stock Unit Award that is forfeited shall also be forfeited.

(d)       Upon settlement of Stock Units into Shares, the Company shall issue, in the name of the Participant, stock certificates representing a number of Shares equal to the number of Stock Units being settled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in lieu of issuing stock certificates, may reflect the issuance of Shares to a Participant on a non-certificated basis, with the ownership of such shares by the Participant evidenced solely by book entry in the records of the Company’s transfer agent; provided, however that the Company, upon the written request of the Participant, shall issue in the name of the Participant, stock certificates representing such shares.

Section 10. Change in Control.

10.1       Effect of a Change in Control.

(a)       Notwithstanding any of the provisions of the Plan or any outstanding Award Agreement, upon a Change in Control of the Company, the Board is authorized and has sole discretion to provide that (i) all outstanding Awards shall become fully exercisable, (ii) all restrictions applicable to all Awards shall terminate or lapse and (iii) performance goals applicable to any Awards shall be deemed satisfied at the highest target level, as applicable, in order that Participants may fully realize the benefits thereunder.

10

(b)       In addition to the Board’s authority set forth in Section 3, upon such Change in Control of the Company, the Board is authorized and has sole discretion as to any Award, either at the time such Award is granted hereunder or any time thereafter, to take any one or more of the following actions: (i) provide for the purchase of any outstanding Stock Option, for an amount of cash equal to the difference between the exercise price and the then Fair Market Value of the Shares covered thereby had such Stock Option been currently exercisable; (ii) make such adjustment to any such Award then outstanding as the Board deems appropriate to reflect such Change in Control; and (iii) cause any such Award then outstanding to be assumed by the acquiring or surviving corporation after such Change in Control.

10.2       Definition of Change in Control.

“Change in Control” of the Company shall be deemed to have occurred if at any time during the term of an Award granted under the Plan any of the following events occurs:

(a)       any Person (other than the Company, a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company, or a corporation owned directly or indirectly by the shareholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of Shares of the Company) is or becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 30% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (“Person” and “Beneficial Owner” being defined in Rule 13d-3 of the General Rules and Regulations of the Exchange Act);

(b)       the Company is party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization or other similar transaction with another corporation or other Person unless, following such transaction, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the outstanding securities of the surviving, resulting or acquiring corporation or Person or its parent entity entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or Persons performing similar functions) is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors immediately prior to such transaction, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such transaction, of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;

(c)       the election to the Board, without the recommendation or approval of two-thirds of the incumbent Board, of the lesser of: (i) three Directors; or (ii) Directors constituting a majority of the number of Directors of the Company then in office; provided, however, that Directors whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest, including but not limited to a consent solicitation, relating to the election of Directors of the Company will not be considered as incumbent members of the Board for purposes of this Section; or

(d)       there is a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or the Company sells all or substantially all of its business and/or assets to another corporation or other Person unless, following such sale, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the outstanding securities of the acquiring corporation or Person or its parent entity entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or Persons performing similar functions) is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors immediately prior to such sale, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such sale, of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors.

In no event, however, shall a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred, with respect to a Participant, if that Participant is part of a purchasing group which consummates the Change in Control transaction. A Participant shall be deemed “part of a purchasing group” for purposes of the preceding sentence if the Participant is an equity participant or has agreed to become an equity participant in the purchasing company or group (except for (a) passive ownership of less than 3% of the shares of the purchasing company; or (b) ownership of equity participation in the purchasing company or group which is otherwise not deemed to be significant, as determined prior to the Change in Control by a majority of the disinterested Directors).

Section 11. Payment of Taxes.

In connection with any Award, and as a condition to the issuance or delivery of any Shares to the Participant in connection therewith, the Company may require the Participant to pay the Company an amount equal to the minimum amount of the tax the Company or any Subsidiary may be required to withhold to obtain a deduction for federal, state or local income tax purposes as a result of such Award or to comply with applicable law. The Board in its sole discretion may make available one or more of the following alternatives for the payment of such taxes:

(a)       in cash;

(b)       in cash received from a broker-dealer to whom the Participant has submitted notice together with irrevocable instructions to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sales proceeds from the sale of the shares subject to the Award to pay the withholding taxes;

(c)       by directing the Company to withhold such number of Shares otherwise issuable in connection with the Award having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld;

(d)       by delivering previously acquired Shares of the Company that are acceptable to the Board that have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld; or

(e)       by certifying to ownership by attestation of such previously acquired Shares.

The Board shall have the sole discretion to establish the terms and conditions applicable to any alternative made available for payment of the required withholding taxes.

Section 12. Postponement.

The Board may postpone any grant or settlement of an Award or exercise of a Stock Option for such time as the Board in its sole discretion may deem necessary in order to permit the Company:

(a)       to effect, amend or maintain any necessary registration of the Plan or the Shares issuable pursuant to an Award, including upon the exercise of an Option, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction;

(b)       to permit any action to be taken in order to (i) list such Shares on a stock exchange if Shares are then listed on such exchange or (ii) comply with restrictions or regulations incident to the maintenance of a public market for its Shares, including any rules or regulations of any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed; or

(c)       to determine that such Shares and the Plan are exempt from such registration or that no action of the kind referred to in (b)(ii) above needs to be taken; and the Company shall not be obligated by virtue of any terms and conditions of any Award or any provision of the Plan to sell or issue Shares in violation of the Securities Act of 1933 or the law of any government having jurisdiction thereof.

12

Any such postponement shall not extend the term of an Award and neither the Company nor its Directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability to a Participant, the Participant’s successor or any other person with respect to any Shares as to which the Award shall lapse because of such postponement.

Section 13. Non-transferability.

Awards granted under the Plan, and any rights and privileges pertaining thereto, may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any manner, or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process, by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

Section 14. Termination or Amendment of Plan and Award Agreements.

14.1     Termination or Amendment of Plan.

(a)       Except as described below, the Board may terminate, suspend, or amend the Plan, in whole or in part, from time to time, without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, unless such approval is required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. No amendment or termination of the Plan shall adversely affect the right of any Participant under any outstanding Award in any material way without the written consent of the Participant, unless such amendment or termination is required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. Subject to the foregoing, the Board may correct any defect or supply an omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Award granted hereunder in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable, in its sole discretion, to effectuate the Plan.

(b)       The Board shall have the authority to amend the Plan to the extent necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable law, regulation or accounting rules in order to permit Participants who are located outside of the United States to participate in the Plan.

14.2     Amendment of Award Agreements.

The Board shall have the authority to amend any Award Agreement at any time; provided however, that no such amendment shall adversely affect the right of any Participant under any outstanding Award Agreement in any material way without the written consent of the Participant, unless such amendment is required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any stock exchange on which the Shares are listed.

Section 15. No Contract of Employment.

Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the grant of any Award under the Plan shall be deemed to obligate the Company or any Subsidiary to continue the employment of any Participant for any particular period, nor shall the granting of an Award constitute a request or consent to postpone the retirement date of any Participant.

Section 16. Applicable Law.

All questions pertaining to the validity, construction and administration of the Plan and all Awards granted under the Plan shall be determined in conformity with the laws of Hong Kong, without regard to the conflict of law provisions of any state, and, in the case of Incentive Stock Options, Section 422 of the Code and regulations issued thereunder.
