Kasmoch, Bohmer and McHugh, which are immediately exercisable for shares of the Company's common stock.  The grants were made pursuant to both the 2004 Plan and the 2010 Plan.  The following table sets forth information about the stock option grants:     <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="625" style='width:469.1pt;margin-left:4.65pt;border-collapse:collapse'> <tr style='height:19.9pt'> <td width="96" valign="bottom" style='width:1.0in;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;height:19.9pt'></td> <td width="192" colspan="3" valign="bottom" style='width:2.0in;border:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;height:19.9pt'> 2004 Plan </td> <td width="15" valign="bottom" style='width:11.1pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;height:19.9pt'></td> <td width="261" colspan="4" valign="bottom" style='width:196.0pt;border:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;height:19.9pt'> 2010 Plan </td> <td width="61" valign="bottom" style='width:46.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;height:19.9pt'></td> </tr> <tr style='height:33.75pt'> <td width="96" valign="bottom" style='width:1.0in;border:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;height:33.75pt'> Officer </td> <td width="64" valign="bottom" style='width:48.0pt;border:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;height:33.75pt'> Grants returned </td> <td width="64" valign="bottom" style='width:48.0pt;border:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;height:33.75pt'> Grants received -
