(e)                                  Shareholder Approval of an Amendment to the Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. 2004 Stock Option Plan

 

At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. (the “Company”) held on June 7, 2010 (the “Annual Meeting”), the shareholders of the Company approved an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. 2004 Stock Option Plan (the “Option Plan”).  The Amendment to the Option Plan increases the total number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock available for issuance under the Option Plan by an additional 2,500,000 shares, such that the Option Plan will provide for a total of 5,000,000 shares available for issuance to eligible individuals, including key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliated companies and the members of the Board of Directors of the Company.  Additionally, the Amendment adds provisions to the Option Plan to ensure that stock options granted under the Option Plan are not subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; however, these changes are not material and do not affect benefits available under the Option Plan or the manner in which the Option Plan is administered.

 

A copy of the Option Plan, as amended by the Amendment, is attached as Exhibit A to the Company’s 2010 Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 30, 2010.  A copy of the Option Plan, as amended by the Amendment, is also included with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1.
