3. Vesting. One third (1/3) of the Shares originally subject to this Option will vest and become exercisable on each anniversary of the date of grant [Date of Grant] if you have been an Employee of the Company continuously from the date of this Agreement shown above through the date when such portion of the Option vests. In addition, should you be terminated by the Company without cause as defined in your employment agreement, all outstanding options will become vested immediately.

(ii)

the expiration of one year from the date that you cease to be an Employee because of your death, disability, or retirement,

(iii)

90 days after your employment with Neoprobe or any subsidiary is terminated by Neoprobe or such Subsidiary without cause,

5. Taxation. This Option is a Nonqualified Option. You will have taxable income upon the exercise of this Option. At that time, you must pay to Neoprobe an amount equal to the required federal, state and local tax withholding less any withholding otherwise made from your salary or bonus. If, for any reason, Neoprobe is unable to withhold all or any portion of the amount required to be withheld, then you (or any person who may exercise this Option) agree to pay an amount equal to the withholding required to be made less the amount actually withheld by Neoprobe. You must satisfy any relevant withholding requirements before Neoprobe issues Shares to you.

6. Exercise. This Option may be exercised by the delivery of this Agreement with the notice of exercise attached hereto properly completed and signed by you to the Treasurer of the Company, together with the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares as to which the Option is being exercised, after the Option has become exercisable and before it has ceased to be exercisable. The Exercise Price must be paid in cash by (a) delivery of a certified or cashier's check payable to the order of Neoprobe in such amount, (b) wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by Neoprobe, or (c) reduction of a debt of Neoprobe to you. This Option may be exercised as to less than all of the Shares purchasable hereunder, but not for a fractional share, nor may it be exercised as to less than one hundred (100) Shares unless it is exercised as to all of the Shares then available hereunder. If this Option is exercised as to less than all of the Shares purchasable hereunder, a new duly executed Option Agreement reflecting the decreased number of Shares exercisable under such Option, but otherwise of the same tenor, will be returned to you.

7. No Transfer. This Option may not be sold, pledged nor otherwise transferred other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; and it may only be exercised during your lifetime by you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may transfer this Option either (a) to members of your immediate family (as defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), to one or more trusts for the benefit of such family members, or to partnerships or other entities in which such family members are the only partners or owners, provided that you do not receive any consideration for the transfer, or (b) with the prior written approval of the committee appointed by the Board of Directors to administer the Plan. Any option held by a transferee remains subject to the same terms and conditions that applied immediately prior to transfer based on the transferor’s continuing relationship with the Company. This Agreement is neither a negotiable instrument nor a security (as such term is defined in Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code).

8. Not An Employment Agreement. This Agreement is not an employment agreement and nothing contained herein gives you any right to continue to be employed by or provide services to Neoprobe or affects the right of Neoprobe to terminate your employment or other relationship with you.

9. Plan Controls. This Agreement is an Award Agreement (as such term is defined in the Plan) under Article 5 of the Plan. The terms of this Agreement are subject to, and controlled by, the terms of the Plan, as it is now in effect or may be amended from time to time hereafter, which are incorporated herein as if they were set forth in full. Any words or phrases defined in the Plan have the same meanings in this Agreement. A copy of the Plan is attached to this Agreement. You should read the entire Plan to familiarize yourself with its terms and conditions.

10. Miscellaneous. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and it supersedes and discharges all prior agreements (written or oral) and negotiations and all contemporaneous oral agreements concerning such subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended or terminated except by a writing signed by the party against whom any such amendment or termination is sought. If any one or more provisions of this Agreement shall be found to be illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.
