The Plan permits the grant of Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Deferred Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance-Based Awards, and Other Stock-Based Awards.  The maximum number of shares that
may be issued under the Plan is 2,000,000, plus shares remaining available for new grants under the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan and the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Prior Plans") and shares recaptured from outstanding awards under the Prior Plans that cease for any reason to be subject to such awards (such as lapse, expiration, termination or cancellation of any award prior to the issuance of the shares thereunder).
