This Option Agreement is attached to and part of the Agreement ("Agreement") between Kane Reid Securities Group, Inc. d/b/a TradeKing ("TradeKing"), Legent Clearing LLC ("Legent") (collectively "You" and/or "Your") and the undersigned ("I", "My" & "Me"). In consideration of Your acceptance of My account ("Account") under the Option Agreement, I agree to the following supplemental terms and provisions.

Acknowledgment. I acknowledge that I have received and read the booklet entitled "Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options" issued by the Options Clearing Corporation ("OCC"), and I am familiar with and understand the risks, duties and responsibilities associated with options trading. In the event that I request Level 4, Level 5, or Level 6 Option Trading, I further acknowledge having received written disclosure describing the additional risks associated with uncovered options trading entitled "Special Statement for Uncovered Option Writers." I further acknowledge that any options trading activity engaged in pursuant to this Option Agreement will be governed by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"), the OCC and the several exchanges. I further agree not to take any action, either alone or in concert with others, to violate the position or exercise limits that the exchanges or marketplaces may establish from time to time as set forth in the booklet, "Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options."

Purchase and Sale of Options. In the event that I purchase or write any option position, I agree:
a. to pay a commission upon the opening of an option position and to pay a second commission upon the exercise or closing of that option position;
b. to deliver the securities subject to an option at such time as Legent or TradeKing determine and, in the event that I do not deliver the underlying securities, I authorize Legent and TradeKing to act as My agent to purchase replacement securities at the then-current market price in order that delivery to the exercising holder of My call option is effectuated;
c. with respect to the purchase of an option position, to be solely responsible for providing notice to Legent and/or TradeKing of My intention to exercise the right of purchase or sale no later than 3 p.m. Central Time on the business day preceding the date of expiration of such option, and that Legent and TradeKing are not obligated to exercise an option on My behalf, but may do so; and
d. in the event it becomes necessary to allocate between two (or more) persons who have established an option position as seller, Legent and TradeKing shall have sole discretion to determine which seller actually shall receive notice of such allocation, and that I am bound by this "random selection" system of allocation.

Remedies. In the event I fail to satisfy any cash or collateral call, Legent and TradeKing may, in its discretion and without notice to Me, take any steps necessary to protect Legent's position, including and without limitation, i) buying and/or selling short, or short exempt, for My account and at My risk, all or any portion of the shares or instruments represented by options endorsed by Legent for My account, and ii) engaging in any other lawful transaction reasonably calculated to protect Legent's and TradeKing's position.

Uncovered Sale of Options. I specifically acknowledge that the sale of any call option without depositing the underlying securities may subject Me to a significant loss.
