ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Under Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person's conduct was unlawful. Although Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to indemnify any person referred to above against expenses (including attorney fees) that are actually and reasonably incurred by such person ("Expenses"), in connection with the defense or settlement of an action by or in the right of the corporation, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests, if such person has been judged liable to the corporation, indemnification is for such expenses only permitted to the extent that the Court of Chancery, or the court in which the action or suit was brought, determines that, despite the adjudication of liability, such person is entitled to indemnity for such Expenses as the Court of Chancery, or such other court, deems proper. The determination, with respect to a person who is a director of officer at the time of such determination, as to whether a person seeking indemnification has met the required standard of conduct is to be made (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iv) by the stockholders. Delaware General Corporation Law also provides that to the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise defense of any action, suit or proceeding covered by the statute, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith. In addition, Delaware General Corporation Law provides for the general authorization of advancement of a director's or officer's litigation expenses, subject to an undertaking by such person to repay any such advancements if such person is ultimately found not to have been entitled to reimbursement for such expenses and that indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by the statute shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. TeleTech's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that TeleTech shall indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law. TeleTech also is authorized to secure insurance on behalf of any person it is required or permitted to indemnify. Pursuant to this provision, TeleTech maintains liability insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers. The registrant maintains liability insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers. ITEM 8. EXHIBITS Exhibit No. Description - ------- ----------- 5.1 Opinion of James B.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS. (a) The Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"); (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; and (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement. PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than for the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. -4-

For purposes of this Paragraph 4, the term "employment" shall be interpreted in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-7(h) (or any successor thereto). 5. ELECTION TO PARTICIPATE. (a) SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENTS. Each Eligible Employee may become a Participant by executing and submitting a Subscription Agreement to the Company at least seven (7) days prior to the beginning of the Offering Period in which payroll deductions will be made, authorizing specified regular payroll deductions. Subscription Agreements may not be retroactive. Subject to the limits of Paragraph 5(b), payroll deductions may be in any whole dollar amount, but not less than a rate of $50 per month, and shall be made on an after-tax basis. All payroll deductions shall be recorded in the Accounts. All funds recorded in Accounts may be used by the Company and its Affiliates for any corporate purpose, subject to the Participant's right to withdraw at any time an amount equal to the entire cash balance accumulated in his or her Account as described in Paragraph 8.

Funds credited to Accounts shall not be required to be segregated from the general funds of the Company or any Affiliate. (b) CONTRIBUTION LIMIT.

The change will become effective as soon as practicable following the receipt of such new Subscription Agreement by the Committee or its delegatee. 7. LIMIT ON PURCHASE OF SHARES. (a) No Eligible Employee may be granted a right to purchase Shares under the Plan to the extent that, immediately following such grant, such Eligible Employee would have rights to purchase equity securities of the Company, under all plans of the Company and Affiliates that are intended to meet the requirements of section 423 of the Code, that -4-

accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of Fair Market Value (determined at the time the rights are granted) for each calendar year in which such rights to purchase equity securities of the Company are outstanding at any time. For purposes of this Paragraph 7: (i) The right to purchase Shares accrues when the right (or any portion thereof) first becomes exercisable during the calendar year; (ii) A right to purchase Shares that has accrued under one grant of rights under the Plan may not be carried over to any other grant of rights under the Plan or any other plan; and (iii) The limits of this Paragraph 7 shall be interpreted by the Committee in accordance with applicable rules and regulations issued under section 423 of the Code. (b) No Eligible Employee may be granted a right to purchase Shares under the Plan if, immediately following such grant, such Eligible Employee would own stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or an Affiliate. In determining stock ownership for purposes of the preceding sentence, the rules of section 425(d) of the Code shall apply and stock that the Eligible Employee may purchase under outstanding options, including rights to purchase stock under the Plan, shall be treated as stock owned by the Participant. 8. WITHDRAWAL OF FUNDS. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, a Participant may at any time prior to a Purchase Date and for any reason withdraw from participation in the Plan for an Offering Period, in which case the entire cash balance accumulated in his or her Account shall be paid to such Participant as soon as practicable thereafter. Partial withdrawals shall not be permitted. Any such withdrawing Participant may again commence participation in the Plan in a subsequent Offering Period by executing and submitting to the Company a Subscription Agreement at least seven (7) business days prior to the beginning of such Offering Period. 9. METHOD OF PURCHASE AND INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS. (a) EXERCISE OF OPTION FOR SHARES. Each Participant having funds credited to an Account on a Purchase Date shall be deemed, without any further action, to have exercised on such Purchase Date the option to purchase from the Company the number of whole Shares that the funds in such Account would purchase at the Purchase Price, subject to the limit: (i) on the aggregate number of Shares that may be made available for purchase to all Participants under the Plan; and -5-

(ii) on the number of Shares that may be made available for purchase to any individual Participant, as set forth in Paragraphs 5(b) and 7. Such option shall be deemed exercised if the Participant does not withdraw such funds before the Purchase Date. All Shares so purchased shall be credited to a separate Investment Account established by the Agent for each Participant. The Agent shall hold in its name or the name of its nominee all certificates for Shares purchased until such Shares are withdrawn by a Participant pursuant to Paragraph 11. Fractional Shares may not be purchased under the Plan. Any funds remaining in the Account of a Participant after a Purchase Date shall be retained in the Account for the purchase of additional Shares in subsequent Offering Periods. (b) DIVIDENDS ON SHARES HELD IN INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS. All cash dividends, if any, paid with respect to the Shares credited to a Participant's Investment Account shall, unless otherwise directed by the Committee, be credited to his or her Account and used, in the same manner as other funds credited to Accounts, to purchase additional Shares under the Plan on the next Purchase Date, subject to Participants' withdrawal rights against Accounts and the other limits of the Plan. (c) ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES ON APPLICATION OF AGGREGATE LIMITS. If the total number of Shares that would he purchased pursuant to Paragraph 9(a) but for the limits described in Paragraph 9(a)(i) or Paragraph 10 exceeds the number of Shares available for purchase under the Plan for a particular Offering Period, then the number of available Shares shall be allocated among the Investment Accounts of Participants in the ratio that the amount credited to a Participant's Account as of the Purchase Date bears to the total amount credited to all Participants' Accounts as of the Purchase Date. The cash balance not applied to the purchase of Shares shall be held in Participants' Accounts subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. 10. STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN. The maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the Plan is 400,000, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 19. The Shares delivered pursuant to the Plan may, at the option of the Company, be Shares purchased specifically for purposes of the Plan, shares otherwise held in treasury or Shares originally issued by the Company for such purposes. In addition, the Committee may impose such limitations as it deems appropriate on the number of Shares that shall be made available for purchase under the Plan during any Offering Period. 11. WITHDRAWAL OF CERTIFICATES. A Participant shall have the right at any time to receive a certificate or certificates for all or a portion of the Shares credited to his or her Investment Account by giving written notice to the Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such request may be made more frequently than once per Offering Period. -6-

12. REGISTRATION OF CERTIFICATES. Each certificate for Shares withdrawn by a Participant may be registered only in the name of the Participant, or, if the Participant has so indicated in the manner designated by the Committee, in the Participant's name jointly with a member of the Participant's family, with right of survivorship. A Participant who is a resident of a jurisdiction which does not recognize such a joint tenancy may have certificates registered in the Participant's name as tenant in common or as community property with a member of the Participant's family without right of survivorship. 13. VOTING. The Agent shall vote all Shares held in an Investment Account in accordance with the Participant's instructions. 14. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Any Participant (a) whose employment by the Company and all Affiliates is terminated for any reason (except death) or (b) who shall cease to be an Eligible Employee, in either case during an Offering Period, shall cease being a Participant as of the date of such termination of employment or cessation of eligibility. Upon such event, the entire cash balance in such Participant's Account shall be refunded as soon as practicable. 15. DEATH OF A PARTICIPANT. If a Participant shall die during an Offering Period, no further payroll deductions shall be taken on behalf of the deceased Participant. The executor or administrator of the deceased Participant's estate may elect to withdraw the balance in said Participant's Account by notifying the Company in writing prior to the Purchase Date in respect of such Offering Period.

(c) OTHER OPTION PROVISIONS. The form of ISO authorized by the Plan may contain such other provisions as the Committee may, from time to time, determine; provided, however, that such other provisions may not be inconsistent with any requirements imposed on qualified stock options under Section 422 of the Code.

The Committee may, in its discretion, grant a SAR to any Participant under the Plan. Each SAR shall be evidenced by an agreement between the Company and the Participant, in a form approved by the Committee, and may be a Naked SAR or a Tandem SAR. Unless the Committee, in its discretion, determines otherwise, each SAR awarded to Participants under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and to such other terms and conditions as the Committee may deem appropriate: (a) TANDEM SARS. Tandem SARs shall terminate on the same date as the related ISO or NSO. A Tandem SAR shall be exercisable only if the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of surrender exceeds the Option Price for the related Option, and then shall be exercisable to the extent, and only to the extent, that the related Option is exercisable. A Tandem SAR shall entitle the Participant to whom it is granted the right to elect, so long as such Tandem SAR is exercisable and subject to such limitations as the Committee shall have imposed, to surrender any then exercisable portion of his related Option, in whole or in part, and receive from the Company in exchange, without any payment of cash (except for applicable employee withholding taxes), that number of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the product of (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of surrender over the per share Option Price, and (ii) the number of shares of Common

Stock subject to such Option or portion thereof which is surrendered. Any Option or portion thereof which is surrendered shall no longer be exercisable. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may allow the Company to settle all or part of the Company's obligation arising out of the exercise of a Tandem SAR by the payment of cash equal to the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock which the Company would otherwise be obligated to deliver. (b) NAKED SARS. Naked SARs shall terminate as provided in the Participant's SAR agreement. The Committee may at the time of granting any Naked SAR add such conditions and limitations to the Naked SAR as it shall deem advisable, including but not limited to, limitations on the period within which the Naked SAR shall be exercisable and the maximum amount of appreciation to be recognized with regard to such Naked SAR. (c) OTHER CONDITIONS. If a Participant is subject to Section 16(a) and Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Committee may at any time add such additional conditions and limitations to such SAR which the Committee, in its discretion, deems necessary or desirable in order to comply with Section 16(a) or Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations issued thereunder, or in order to obtain any exemption therefrom. 9. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS. The Committee, in its discretion, may grant Restricted Stock to any Participant under the Plan. Each grant of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by an agreement between the Company and the Participant in a form approved by the Committee. Unless the Committee, in its discretion, determines otherwise, all shares of Common Stock awarded to Participants under the Plan as Restricted Stock shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and to such other terms and conditions as the Committee may deem appropriate: (a) RESTRICTED PERIOD. Shares of Restricted Stock awarded to Participants may not be sold, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered before they vest. Subject to the provisions of subparagraphs (b) and (c) below and any other restrictions imposed by law, certificates evidencing shares of Restricted Stock that vest will be transferred to the Participant or, in the event of his death, to the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by writing filed by the Participant with the Committee for such purpose or, if none, to his estate. (b) FORFEITURES. A Participant shall forfeit all unpaid accumulated dividends and all shares of Restricted Stock which have not vested prior to the date that his employment with the Company is terminated for any reason. (c) CERTIFICATES DEPOSITED WITH COMPANY. Each certificate issued in respect of shares of Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan shall be registered in the name of the Participant and deposited with the Company. Each such certificate shall bear the following (or a similar) legend:

"The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) relating to Restricted Stock contained in the TeleTech Holdings, Inc. 1999 Stock Option and Incentive Plan and an agreement entered into between the registered owner and TeleTech Holdings, Inc. Copies of such Plan and agreement are on file at the principal office of TeleTech Holdings, Inc." (d) STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. Subject to the foregoing restrictions, each Participant shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to his shares of Restricted Stock including, but not limited to, the right to vote such shares. (e) DIVIDENDS. On each Common Stock dividend payment date, each Participant shall receive an amount equal to the dividend paid on that date on a share of Common Stock, multiplied by his number of shares of Restricted Stock. 10. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PHANTOM STOCK. The Committee may, in its discretion, award Phantom Stock to any Participant under the Plan. Each award of Phantom Stock shall be evidenced by an agreement between the Company and the Participant. The Committee may at the time of awarding any Phantom Stock add such additional conditions and limitations to the Phantom Stock as it shall deem advisable, including, but not limited to, the right for Participants to receive dividends equivalent to those paid on Common Stock, limitations on the period or periods within which the Phantom Stock may be surrendered, and the maximum amount of appreciation to be recognized with regard to such Phantom Stock. An award of Phantom Stock shall entitle the Participant to whom it is awarded the right to elect, so long as such Phantom Stock is vested and subject to such limitations as the Committee shall have imposed, to surrender any then vested portion of the Phantom Stock, in whole or in part, and receive from the Company in exchange therefor the Fair Market Value on the date of surrender of the Common Stock to which the surrendered Phantom Stock relates in cash or in shares of Common Stock as the Committee may determine. If a Participant is subject to Section 16(a) and Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Committee may at any time add such additional conditions and limitations to such Phantom Stock which, in its discretion, the Committee deems necessary or desirable in order to comply with Section 16(a) or Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or in order to obtain any exemption therefrom. 11. MANNER OF EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. To exercise an Option in whole or in part, a Participant, any permitted transferee of a Participant or, after a Participant's death, a Participant's executor or administrator, must give written notice to the Committee, stating the number of shares to which he intends to exercise the Option. The Company will issue the shares with respect to which the Option is exercised upon payment in full of the Option Price. The Option Price may be paid (i) in cash, (ii) in shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value, as determined on the date

of delivery, equal to the Option Price, or (iii) by delivery of irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds necessary to pay for all Common Stock acquired through such exercise and any tax withholding obligations resulting from such exercise. The Option Price may be paid in shares of Common Stock which were received by the Participant upon the exercise of one or more Options. The Option Price may be paid in shares of Common Stock which were received by the Participant as an award of Restricted Stock under the Plan. The Option Price may be paid by surrender of Tandem SARs equal to the Option Price. 12. VESTING. (a) A Participant may not exercise an Option, surrender a SAR or Phantom Stock or transfer, pledge or dispose of any Restricted Stock until it has become vested. The portion of an Option, SAR or Phantom Stock award or Restricted Stock that is vested depends upon the period that has elapsed since the Option Date. Unless the Committee establishes a different vesting schedule at the time an Option is granted or the Restricted Stock, SAR or Phantom Stock is awarded, all Options granted under this Plan, Restricted Stock, SARs and Phantom Stock awarded under this Plan shall vest according to the following schedule: PERIOD ELAPSED CUMULATIVE VESTED PERCENTAGE - -------------- ----------------- First Anniversary of Option Date ............ 20% Second Anniversary of Option Date ........... 40% Third Anniversary of Option Date ............ 60% Fourth Anniversary of Option Date ........... 80% Fifth Anniversary of Option Date ............ 100% Except as provided below, if a Participant's employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries is terminated, for any reason, such Participant automatically forfeits any Options, Restricted Stock, SARs and/or Phantom Stock that are not yet vested. A transfer of employment from the Company to a Subsidiary or affiliate, or vice versa, is not a termination of employment for purposes of this Plan. Unless the Committee in its sole discretion specifically waives the application of this sentence, then notwithstanding the vesting schedule contained herein or in the Participant's agreement, if the Participant's employment, or if a Director, his membership on the Board, is terminated for Cause, all Options, SARs, Restricted Stock and/or Phantom Stock granted or awarded to the Participant will be immediately cancelled and forfeited by the Participant upon delivery to him of notice of such termination. (b) If it determines that special circumstances exist, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the time in which an award under the Plan vests, even if, under its existing terms, such award would not then be exercisable.

13. ADJUSTMENTS TO REFLECT CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. If there is any change in the corporate structure or shares of the Company, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, make any adjustments necessary to prevent accretion, or to protect against dilution, in the number and kind of shares authorized by the Plan and, with respect to outstanding Options, Restricted Stock, Phantom Stock and/or SARs, in the number and kind of shares covered thereby and in the applicable Option Price; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no adjustment will be made for the issuance of preferred stock or the conversion of convertible preferred stock. For the purpose of this Section 13, a change in the corporate structure or shares of the Company includes, without limitation, any change resulting from a recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, consolidation, rights offering, spin-off, reorganization, or liquidation and any transaction in which shares of Common Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of stock or other securities of the Company or another corporation. 14. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS, SARS AND PHANTOM STOCK. The Options and SARs granted or Phantom Stock awarded under the Plan are not transferable, voluntarily or involuntarily, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or to the extent permissible under Section 422 of the Code, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may permit Options to be transferrable by a Participant to members of such Participant's immediate family or to family trusts, partnerships and other entities comprised solely of the Participant or members of the Participant's immediate family. 15. RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER. No Common Stock may be delivered upon the exercise of any Option until full payment of the Option Price has been made and all income tax withholding requirements thereon have been satisfied. A Participant has no rights whatsoever as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by an Option until the date of the issuance of a stock certificate for the shares. A Participant who has been granted SARs or Phantom Stock shall have no rights whatsoever as a stockholder with respect to such SARs or Phantom Stock. 16. WITHHOLDING TAX. The Company shall have the right to withhold or to require a Participant to remit to the Company, in cash or shares of Common Stock, with respect to any payments made to Participants under the Plan, any taxes required by law to be withheld because of such payments. Subject to the consent of the Committee with respect to (a) the exercise of an NSO, (b) the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock, (c) a "disqualifying disposition" of an ISO, as determined pursuant to the Code, or (d) the issuance of any other stock award under the Plan, a Participant may make an irrevocable election (an "ELECTION") to (i) have shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable withheld, or (ii) tender back to the Company shares of Common Stock received pursuant to (a), (b), or (d), or (iii) deliver back to the Company

pursuant to (a), (b), or (d) previously acquired shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value sufficient to satisfy all or part of the Participant's estimated tax obligations. Such Election must be made by a Participant prior to the date on which the relevant tax obligation arises. The Committee may disapprove of any Election, may suspend or terminate the right to make Elections, or may provide with respect to any award under this Plan that the right to make Elections shall not apply to such award. 17. NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT. Participation in the Plan will not give any Participant a right to be retained as an employee of the Company or any subsidiary, or any right or claim to any benefit under the Plan, unless the right or claim has specifically accrued under the Plan. 18. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. The Committee may from time to time amend or revise the terms of this Plan in whole or in part and may without limitation, adopt any amendment deemed necessary, subject only to applicable laws, regulations and the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Exchange or any national stock exchange upon which the Common Stock may be listed; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (a) except as provided in Section 4(h), no change in any award previously granted to a Participant may be made that would impair the rights of the Participant without the Participant's consent, or (b) no amendment may extend the period during which a Participant may exercise an ISO beyond the period set forth in Section 6(a)(ii) or 6(e). Any approval required or desired from the Company's stockholders to any amendment shall require a vote of the majority of the shares of the Company's Common Stock and preferred stock voting together as one class, present in person or by proxy at a duly held stockholders meeting or by written consent. All amendments shall be in writing and consented to by a majority of the members of the Committee. 19. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES. An Option shall not be exercisable, a share of Common Stock shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option, and Restricted Stock shall not be awarded until such time as the Plan has been approved by the Stockholders of the Company and unless the award of Restricted Stock, exercise of such Option and the issuance and delivery of such share pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the shares of Common stock may then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Company may require the person exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Common Stock is being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of the aforementioned relevant provisions of law.

20. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION OF PLAN. (a) EFFECTIVE DATE. This Plan is effective as of the later of the date of its adoption by the Board or, if approval of the Company's stockholders is sought, the date the Plan is approved by the stockholders of the Company. (b) TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. The Committee may terminate the Plan at any time with respect to any shares that are not then subject to Options or Restricted Stock. Termination of the Plan will not affect the rights and obligations of any Participant with respect to Options, SARs, Phantom Stock or Restricted Stock awarded before termination. 21. ANNUAL OPTION GRANTS TO OUTSIDE DIRECTORS. On the date of each annual meeting of stockholders, each Outside Director who does not own, directly or indirectly, over 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock shall be granted an Option to purchase 15,000 shares of Common Stock and, for each committee on which such director has been appointed to serve, such committee member shall be granted an option to purchase 8,000 shares of Common Stock.
