5

The Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan or in any Award in the manner and to the extent the Committee deems necessary or desirable to further the purposes of this Plan.  Any decision of the Committee in the interpretation and administration of this Plan shall lie within its sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties concerned.  The Board shall have the same powers as the Committee with respect to Awards to Directors.

(b)Indemnity.  No member of the Board or the Committee or officer of the Company to whom the Committee has delegated authority in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 of this Plan shall be liable for anything done or omitted to be done by him or her, by any member of the Board or the Committee or by any officer of the Company in connection with the performance of any duties under this Plan, except for his or her own willful misconduct or as expressly provided by statute.

(c)Prohibition on Repricing of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights.  Except in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Company (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, or exchange of shares), the terms of outstanding Options and SARs may not be amended to (i) reduce the exercise price of outstanding Options or SARs or (ii) cancel outstanding Options or SARs in exchange for cash, other Awards or Options or SARs with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original Options or SARs without stockholder approval.

8.Awards.  The Committee shall determine the type or types of Awards to be made under this Plan to Employees and shall designate from time to time the Participants who are to be the recipients of such Awards.  Each Award shall be embodied in an Award Agreement in such form as the Committee determines, which shall contain such terms, conditions and limitations as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, including any treatment upon a Change of Control, and shall be issued for and on behalf of the Company.  Awards may consist of those listed in this Section 8 and may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem.  Awards may also be made in combination or in tandem with, in replacement of, or as alternatives to, grants or rights under this Plan or any other plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including this Plan of any acquired entity; provided that, except as contemplated in Section 15 hereof, no Option or SAR may be issued in exchange for the cancellation of an Option or SAR, respectively, with a higher exercise price nor may the exercise price of any Option or SAR be reduced.  All or part of an Award may be subject to conditions established by the Committee, which may include, but are not limited to, continuous service with the Company and its Subsidiaries, achievement of specific business objectives, increases in specified indices, attainment of specified growth rates and other measurements of performance.  Upon the termination of employment by a Participant who is an

6

Employee, any unexercised, deferred, unvested or unpaid Awards shall be treated as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

(a)Option.  An Award may be in the form of an Option.  An Option awarded pursuant to this Plan may consist of an Incentive Option or a Nonqualified Option.  The price at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased upon the exercise of an Option shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant.  The term of an Option shall not exceed ten years from the date of grant.  Subject to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Options awarded pursuant to this Plan, including the term of any Options and the date or dates upon which such Options become exercisable, shall be determined by the Committee.

(b)Stock Appreciation Right.  An Award may be in the form of a SAR.  The strike price for a SAR shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date on which the SAR is granted.  The term of a SAR shall not exceed ten years from the date of grant.  Subject to the foregoing limitations, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any SARs awarded pursuant to this Plan, including the term of any SARs and the date or dates upon which such SARs become exercisable, shall be determined by the Committee.  As of the date of grant of a SAR, the Committee may specifically designate that the Award will be paid (i) only in cash, (ii) only in Common Stock, or (iii) in such other form or combination of forms as the Committee may elect or permit at the time of exercise.

(e)Performance Award.  Without limiting the type or number of Awards that may be made under the other provisions of this Plan, an Award may be in the form of a Performance Award.  The amount of cash or shares of Common Stock payable or issuable or vested pursuant to Performance Awards may be adjusted upward or downward, either on a formula or discretionary basis or any combination, as the Committee determines in its discretion.  Subject to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Performance Awards made pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Committee.

(f)Minimum Vesting.  Any Award (other than a Cash Award) shall have a minimum vesting period or Restriction Period, as applicable, of one year from the date of grant, provided that (i) the Committee may provide for earlier vesting or termination of the Restriction Period following a Change of Control or upon termination of a Participant’s employment or service by reason of death, disability or retirement and (ii) Awards with respect to up to 5% of the shares of Common Stock authorized for grant pursuant to this Plan may have a vesting period or Restriction Period, as applicable, of less than one year.

7

9.Awards to Directors.  The Board may grant a Director of the Company one or more Awards, other than in the form of Incentive Options, and establish the terms thereof in accordance with Section 8 and consistent with the provisions therein for the granting of Awards to Employees by the Committee.  Any such Award shall be subject to the applicable terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.  Upon the termination of service by a Participant who is a Director, any unexercised, deferred, unvested or unpaid Awards shall be treated as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

10.Award Payment; Dividends and Dividend Equivalents.

(a)General.  As specified in the applicable Award Agreements, payment of Awards may be made in the form of cash or Common Stock, or a combination thereof, and may include such restrictions as the Committee shall determine, including, in the case of Common Stock, restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions.  If payment of an Award is made in the form of Restricted Stock, the right to receive such shares shall be evidenced by book-entry registration or in such other manner as the Committee may determine from time to time.  Any statement of ownership evidencing such Restricted Stock shall contain appropriate legends and restrictions that describe the terms and conditions of the restrictions applicable thereto.

(b)Dividends, Dividend Equivalents and Interest.  Rights to dividends or Dividend Equivalents may be extended to and made part of any Stock Award, subject to such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee may establish.  Unless otherwise provided in the Participant’s Award Agreement, any dividends or Dividend Equivalents payable in connection with any Stock Award (as provided in the applicable Award Agreement) shall be paid at the same time and in the same manner as dividends are paid to stockholders of record.  The Committee may also establish rules and procedures for the crediting of interest on deferred cash payments, dividends or Dividend Equivalents.  Dividends and/or Dividend Equivalents shall not be made part of any Options or SARs.

11.Stock Option Exercise.  The price at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased under an Option shall be paid in full at the time of exercise in cash or, if set forth in the Award Agreement and elected by the Participant, the Participant may purchase such shares by means of the Company withholding shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable on exercise of the Award or tendering Common Stock or surrendering another Award, including Restricted Stock, valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, or any combination thereof.  The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine acceptable methods for Participants to tender Common Stock or other Awards.  The Committee may provide for procedures to permit the exercise or purchase of such Awards by use of the proceeds to be received from the sale of Common Stock issuable pursuant to an Award (including cashless exercise procedures approved by the Committee involving a broker or dealer approved by the Committee).  Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event shares of Restricted Stock are tendered as consideration for the exercise of an Option, a number of the shares issued upon the exercise of the Option, equal to the number of shares of Restricted Stock used as consideration therefore, shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock so submitted as well as any additional restrictions that may be imposed by the Committee.  The Committee may adopt additional rules

8

and procedures regarding the exercise of Options from time to time, provided that such rules and procedures are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 11.

12.Taxes.  The Company shall have the right to deduct applicable taxes from any Award payment and withhold an appropriate amount of cash or number of shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof for payment of taxes required by law or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes.  The Committee may also permit withholding to be satisfied by (i) the transfer to the Company of shares of Common Stock theretofore owned by the holder of the Award or (ii) withholding from the shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable under the Award, in either case with respect to which withholding is required, up to the maximum tax rate applicable to the Participant, as determined by the Committee and subject to applicable law.  If shares of Common Stock are used to satisfy tax withholding, such shares shall be valued based on the Fair Market Value when the tax withholding is required to be made.

13.Amendment, Modification, Suspension or Termination.  The Board may amend, modify, suspend or terminate this Plan (and the Committee may amend or modify an Award Agreement) for the purpose of meeting or addressing any changes in legal requirements or for any other purpose permitted by applicable law, except that (i) no amendment or alteration that would materially adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any Award previously granted to such Participant shall be made without the consent of such Participant and (ii) no amendment or alteration shall be effective prior to its approval by the  stockholders of the Company to the extent stockholder approval is otherwise required by applicable legal requirements or the requirements of the securities exchange on which the Company’s stock is listed, including any amendment that expands the types of Awards available under this Plan, materially increases the number of shares of Common Stock available for Awards under this Plan, materially expands the classes of persons eligible for Awards under this Plan, materially extends the term of this Plan, materially changes the method of determining the Exercise Price of Options or strike price of SARs, deletes or limits any provisions of this Plan that prohibit the repricing of Options or SARs.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, this Plan shall not be amended or terminated in such manner that would cause this Plan or any amounts or benefits payable hereunder to fail to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A, and any such amendment or termination that may reasonably be expected to result in such failure shall be of no force or effect.

14.Assignability.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee (or the Board, in the case of Awards to Directors) and provided in the Award Agreement, no Award may be assigned or otherwise transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order in a form acceptable to the plan administrator.  Any attempted assignment of an Award or any other benefit under this Plan in violation of this Section 14 shall be null and void.

15.Adjustments.

(a)The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect in any manner the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the capital stock of the Company or its business or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds,

9

debentures, preferred or prior preference stock (whether or not such issue is prior to, on a parity with or junior to the Common Stock) or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding of any kind, whether or not of a character similar to that of the acts or proceedings enumerated above.

(b)In the event of any subdivision or consolidation of outstanding shares of Common Stock, declaration of a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or other stock split, then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock reserved under this Plan, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock available under this Plan for Incentive Options and Stock Awards, (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by outstanding Awards in the form of Common Stock or units denominated in Common Stock, (iv) the exercise or other price in respect of such Awards, and (v) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price determinations for such Awards shall each be proportionately adjusted by the Committee to reflect such transaction.  In the event of any other recapitalization or capital reorganization of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation or entity, the adoption by the Company of any plan of exchange affecting the Common Stock or any distribution to holders of Common Stock of securities or property (other than normal cash dividends or dividends payable in Common Stock), the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments to (1) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by Awards in the form of Common Stock or units denominated in Common Stock, (2) the exercise or other price in respect of such Awards, (3) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price determinations for such Awards, and (4) the number of shares of Common Stock available under this Plan for Incentive Options and Stock Awards; provided that such adjustments shall only be such as are necessary to maintain the proportionate interest of the holders of the Awards and preserve, without exceeding, the value of such Awards.

(c)In the event of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the Committee may make such adjustments to Awards or other provisions for the disposition of Awards as it deems equitable, and shall be authorized, in its discretion, to (i) provide for the substitution of a new Award or other arrangement (which, if applicable, may be exercisable for such property or stock as the Committee determines) for an Award or the assumption of the Award (and for awards not granted under this Plan), regardless of whether in a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code applies, (ii) provide, prior to the transaction, for the acceleration of the vesting and exercisability of, or lapse of restrictions with respect to, the Award and, if the transaction is a cash merger, provide for the termination of any portion of the Award that remains unexercised at the time of such transaction, (iii) provide for the acceleration of the vesting and exercisability of an Award and the cancellation thereof in exchange for such payment as the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines is a reasonable approximation of the value thereof, (iv) cancel any Awards and direct the Company to deliver to the Participants who are the holders of such Awards cash in an amount that the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion is equal to the Fair Market Value of such Awards as of the date of such event, which, in the case of any Option, shall be the amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share as of such date over the per-share exercise price for such Option (for the avoidance of doubt, if such Fair Market Value is less than such exercise price, the Option may be canceled for no consideration), or (v) cancel Awards that

10

are Options and give the Participants who are the holders of such Awards notice and opportunity to exercise prior to such cancellation.

(d)No adjustment authorized by this Section 15 shall be made in such manner that would result in this Plan or any amounts or benefits payable hereunder to fail to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A, and any such adjustment that may reasonably be expected to result in such failure shall be of no force or effect.

16.Restrictions.  No Common Stock or other form of payment shall be issued or made with respect to any Award unless the Company shall be satisfied based on the advice of its counsel that such issuance or other payment will be in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.  Certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock delivered under this Plan (to the extent that such shares are so evidenced) may be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any securities exchange or transaction reporting system upon which the Common Stock is then listed or to which it is admitted for quotation and any applicable federal or state securities law.  The Committee may cause a legend or legends to be placed upon such certificates (if any) to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

17.Unfunded Plan.  This Plan is unfunded.  Although bookkeeping (notional) accounts may be established with respect to Participants who are entitled to cash, Common Stock or rights thereto under this Plan, any such accounts shall be used merely as a bookkeeping convenience.  The Company shall not be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by cash, Common Stock or rights thereto, nor shall this Plan be construed as providing for such segregation, nor shall the Company, the Board or the Committee be deemed to be a trustee of any cash, Common Stock or rights thereto to be granted under this Plan.  Any liability or obligation of the Company to any Participant with respect to an Award of cash, Common Stock or rights thereto under this Plan shall be based solely upon any contractual obligations that may be created by this Plan and any Award Agreement, and no such liability or obligation of the Company shall be deemed to be secured by any pledge or other encumbrance on any property of the Company.  All amounts provided under this Plan shall be paid from the general assets of the Company and no separate fund shall be established to secure payment.  To the extent that a Participant or other person acquires a right to receive payment from the Company under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

18.Section 409A.

(a)The Company intends that this Plan and Awards comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the accompanying regulations and guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service and shall be operated and interpreted consistent with that intent.  Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, if any Plan provision or Award under this Plan would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A, that Plan provision or Award will be reformed to avoid imposition of the additional tax, including that any Award subject to Section 409A held by a specified employee that is settled upon termination of employment (for reasons other than death) shall be delayed in payment until the expiration of six months, and no action taken to

11

comply with Section 409A shall be deemed to adversely affect the Participant’s rights under an Award.  No payment, benefit or consideration shall be substituted for an Award if such action would result in the imposition of taxes under Section 409A

(b)Unless the Committee provides otherwise in an Award Agreement, each Award of Restricted Stock Units or Cash Award (or portion thereof if the Award is subject to a vesting schedule) shall be settled no later than the 15th day of the third month after the end of the first calendar year in which the Award (or such portion thereof) is no longer subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” within the meaning of Section 409A.  If the Committee determines that an Award of Restricted Stock Units or a Cash Award is intended to be subject to Section 409A, the applicable Award Agreement shall include terms that are designed to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A.

(c)If the Participant is identified by the Company as a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code on the date on which the Participant has a “separation from service” (other than due to death) within the meaning of Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(h), any Award payable or settled on account of a separation from service that is deferred compensation subject to Section 409A shall be paid or settled on the earliest of (1) the first business day following the expiration of six months from the Participant’s separation from service, (2) the date of the Participant’s death, or (3) such earlier date as complies with the requirements of Section 409A.

19.Governing Law.  This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by mandatory provisions of the Code or the securities laws of the United States, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.

20.Right to Continued Service or Employment.  Nothing in this Plan or an Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate any Participant’s employment or other service relationship with the Company or its Subsidiaries at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the capacity in which he is employed or otherwise serves the Company or its Subsidiaries.

21.Usage.  Words used in this Plan in the singular shall include the plural and vice versa, and words of one gender shall be construed to include the other gender and the neuter, in each case as the context requires.

22.Headings.  The headings in this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Plan.
