This option award and that announced in September represents the director and management incentive awards for the next 12 months or so.

It is further noted that the respective Incentive Shares will vest and become awarded vested Incentive Shares once the Board has determined that the relevant Performance Conditions have been met.

Performance Conditions 1 through 5 have a 24-month vesting period and Performance Condition 6 has a 36-month vesting period.

In addition, it is noted that an eligible employee shall have no right to compensation for any loss in respect of awards under the Plan in the event, inter alia, their employment ends with the Company.

Should there be a change of control in regards to either IOCA or the Company, the shares will vest immediately.
