The Board of Directors has divided the stock options 2021A and 2021B into Matching and Performance options. The Board of Directors has decided to remove the vesting criteria for the Match 2021A and Match 2021B options.

The amendments are made to preserve the purpose of the stock option plan which is to engage option holders in the growth of the company’s share value.
