or (iv) Deferred Stock awards.

 

In particular, the Committee shall have the authority:

 

  (i) to select the officers and other key employees of the Company and its
Subsidiaries and other eligible persons to whom Stock Options, Stock
Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock and Deferred Stock awards may from time to
time be granted hereunder;

  (iv) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of
the Plan, of any award granted hereunder (including, but not limited to, any
restriction on any Stock Option or other award and/or the shares of Stock
relating thereto); provided, however, that in the event of a merger or asset
sale or other form of change of control, the applicable provisions of Sections
5(c) and 7(c) of the Plan shall govern the acceleration of the vesting of any
Stock option or awards;

 

  (v) to determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances Stock
and other amounts payable with respect to an award under this Plan shall be
deferred either automatically or at the election of the participant.

 

The Committee shall have the authority to adopt, alter and repeal such
administrative rules, guidelines and practices governing the Plan as it shall,
from time to time, deem advisable; to interpret the terms and provisions of the
Plan and any award issued under the Plan (and any agreements relating thereto);
and to otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. The Committee may
delegate to executive officers of the Company the authority to exercise the
powers specified in (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above with respect to persons
who are not executive officers of the Company.

 

All decisions made by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall
be final and binding on all persons, including the Company and Plan
participants.

 

SECTION 3. Stock Subject to Plan.

 

The total number of shares of Stock reserved and available for distribution
under the Plan shall be 4,450,9101. Such shares may consist, in whole or in
part, of authorized and unissued shares.

 

 

1 History: This Plan originally reserved 970,912 shares for issuance. The Board
of Directors approved an increase from 970,912 shares to 1,250,912 on
January 19, 1994, and an increase from 1,250,912 shares to 1,601,820 shares on
August 19, 1994. The shareholders approved the increase to 1,601,820 shares at a
special meeting on December 21, 1994. The Board of Directors approved an
increase from 1,601,820 shares to 2,101,820 shares on July 26, 1995, which was
approved by the Shareholders at a special meeting on November 27, 1995. The
number of shares reserved under the Plan was again increased from 2,101,820 to
3,101,820 by the Board of Directors on April 3, 1996 and such increase was
approved by the Shareholders at a special meeting on April 30, 1996.
Simultaneously on April 30, 1996, the Company effected a 1-for-2 Reverse Stock
Split, thereby converting the number of shares reserved to 1,550,910 as of
April 30, 1996. Following the Reverse Stock Split, the Board of Directors
increased the number of shares reserved to 1,950,910 on September 17, 1997 and
the increase was approved by the shareholders on November 19, 1997. On
November 17, 1998, the Board of Directors authorized an increase in the number
of shares reserved to 2,450,910, which increase was approved by the shareholders
on January 14, 1999. On September 12, 2000 the Board of Directors authorized an
increase in the number of shares reserved to 2, 950,910, which increase was
approved by the shareholders on November 14, 2000. On September 11, 2001 the
Board of Directors authorized an increase in the number of shares reserved to
3,450,910, which increase was approved by the shareholders on November 6, 2001.
On July 19, 2004 the Board of Directors authorized an increase in the number of
shares reserved to 4,450,910, which increase was approved by the shareholders on
November 9, 2004.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Subject to paragraph (b)(iv) of Section 6 below, if any shares that have been
optioned cease to be subject to Stock Options, or if any shares subject to any
Restricted Stock or Deferred Stock award granted hereunder are forfeited or such
award otherwise terminates without a payment being made to the participant, such
shares shall again be available for distribution in connection with future
awards under the Plan.

 

In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization,
stock dividend, other change in corporate structure affecting the Stock, or
spin-off or other distribution of assets to shareholders, such substitution or
adjustment shall be made in the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance
under the Plan, in the number and option price of shares subject to outstanding
options granted under the Plan, and in the number of shares subject to
Restricted Stock or Deferred Stock awards granted under the Plan as may be
determined to be appropriate by the Committee, in its sole discretion, provided
that the number of shares subject to any award shall always be a whole number.
Such adjusted option price shall also be used to determine the amount payable by
the Company upon the exercise of any Stock Appreciation Right associated with
any Option.

 

SECTION 4. Eligibility.

 

Officers, other key employees of the Company and Subsidiaries, members of the
Board of Directors, and Consultants who are responsible for or contribute to the
management, growth and profitability of the business of the Company and its
Subsidiaries are eligible to be granted Stock Options, Stock Appreciation
Rights, Restricted Stock or Deferred Stock awards under the Plan. The optionees
and participants under the Plan shall be selected from time to time by the
Committee, in its sole discretion, from among those eligible, and the Committee
shall determine, in its sole discretion, the number of shares covered by each
award.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no person may, during any fiscal year of the
Company, receive grants of Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights under
this Plan which, in the aggregate, exceed 500,000 shares.

 

SECTION 5. Stock Options.

 

Any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be in such form as the Committee
may from time to time approve.

 

The Stock Options granted under the Plan may be of two types: (i) Incentive
Stock Options and (ii) Non-Qualified Stock Options. No Incentive Stock Options
shall be granted under the Plan after August 1, 2011.

 

The Committee shall have the authority to grant any optionee Incentive Stock
Options, Non-Qualified Stock Options, or both types of options (in each case
with or without Stock Appreciation Rights). To the extent that any option does
not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, it shall constitute a separate
Non-Qualified Stock Option.

 

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no term of this Plan
relating to Incentive Stock Options shall be interpreted, amended or altered,
nor shall any discretion or authority granted under the Plan be so exercised, so
as to disqualify either the Plan or any Incentive Stock Option under Section 422
of the Code. The preceding sentence shall not preclude any modification or
amendment to an outstanding Incentive Stock Option, whether or not such
modification or amendment results in disqualification of such Option as an
Incentive Stock Option, provided the optionee consents in writing to the
modification or amendment.

 

No changes that result from the restatement of this Plan shall effect any change
in any outstanding incentive stock option that would cause such option to be
modified, extended or renewed to the extent that such change will constitute the
grant of a new option as specified in Section 424(h) of the Code.

 

Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and
conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not
inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable.

 

(a) Option Price. The option price per share of Stock purchasable under a Stock
Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant. In no event
shall the option price per share of Stock purchasable under an Incentive Stock
Option be less than 100% of such Fair Market Value. If an employee owns or is
deemed to own (by reason of the attribution rules applicable under
Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the combined voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company or any Parent Corporation or Subsidiary and an
Incentive Stock Option is granted to such employee, the option price shall be no
less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date the option is
granted.

 

(b) Option Term. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee,
but no Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable more than ten years after the
date the option is granted. If an employee owns or is deemed to own (by reason
of the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the
combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent
Corporation or Subsidiary and an Incentive Stock Option is granted to such
employee, the term of such option shall be no more than five years from the date
of grant.

 

(c) Exercisability. Stock Options shall be exercisable at such time or times as
determined by the Committee at or after grant. If the Committee provides, in its
discretion, that any option is exercisable only in installments, the Committee
may waive such installment exercise provisions at any time. Notwithstanding
anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may, in its
discretion, extend or vary the term of any Stock Option or any installment
thereof, whether or not the optionee is then employed by the Company, if such
action is deemed to be in the best interests of the Company; provided, however,
that in the event of a merger or sale of assets, or of a Change of Control, the
provisions of this section 5(c) shall govern vesting acceleration.

 

  (i)

In the event of a merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or the
sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, each outstanding Option
shall be assumed or an equivalent option or right shall be substituted by the
successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In
the event that

 

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the successor corporation does not agree to assume the Option or to substitute
an equivalent option or right, the Committee shall, in lieu of such assumption
or substitution, provide for the Optionee to have the right to exercise the
Option as to all of the Optioned Stock, including shares as to which it would
not otherwise be exercisable. If the Committee makes an Option fully exercisable
in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or sale of
assets, the Committee shall notify the Optionee that the Option shall be fully
exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and
the Option will terminate upon the expiration of such period. For the purposes
of this paragraph, the Option shall be considered assumed if, following the
merger or sale of assets, the option or right confers the right to purchase, for
each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option immediately prior to the
merger or sale of assets, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other
securities or property) received in the merger or sale of assets by holders of
Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and
if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration
chose by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided,
however, that if such consideration received in the merger or sale of assets was
not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the
Committee may, with consent of the successor corporation and the participant,
provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option,
for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option, to be solely common
stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in Fair Market Value to
the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or
sale of assets.

 

  (ii) Upon a Change of Control, each outstanding Stock Option shall become
exercisable in full as to all of the shares covered thereby without regard to
any installment exercise or vesting provisions. In the event that at any time
prior to August 13, 1999, a Change of Control or other business combination of
the Company occurs as to which the Company desires that pooling accounting
treatment be utilized, the Board may, in its sole discretion, declare that the
provisions of this Section 5(c)(ii), and the related provisions of all then
outstanding Stock Options shall be of no force and effect whatsoever and the
treatment of any Stock Options outstanding at that time shall then instead be
governed solely by the provisions of Section 5(c)(i). After August 13, 1999, the
provisions of Section 5(c)(i) shall be of no further force or effect. This
Section 5(c)(ii) will apply to all Stock Options which are outstanding on
August 13, 1997, as well as all Stock Options which are granted on or after that
date. For purposes of this Section 5(c), the term “Change of Control” means any
of the following:

 

  (A) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the
Exchange Act) becomes a “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the
Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing
50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding
securities and is required to file a Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act; or

 

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  (B) the Incumbent Directors cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board of Directors. The term, “Incumbent Directors,” shall mean
those individuals who are members of the Board of Directors on August 13, 1997
and any individual who subsequently becomes a member of the Board of Directors
whose election or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders was
approved by a vote of at least a majority of the then Incumbent Directors; or

 

  (C) all or substantially all of the assets of the Company are sold, leased,
exchanged or otherwise transferred and immediately thereafter, there is no
substantial continuity of ownership with respect to the Company and the entity
to which such assets have been transferred.

 

  (iii) The grant of an option pursuant to the Plan shall not limit in any way
the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications,
reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge,
exchange or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any
part of its business or assets.

 

(d) Method of Exercise. Stock Options may be exercised in whole or in part at
any time during the option period by giving written notice of exercise to the
Company specifying the number of shares to be purchased. Such notice shall be
accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price, either by check, or by any
other form of legal consideration deemed sufficient by the Committee and
consistent with the Plan’s purpose and applicable law, including promissory
notes or a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable
instructions to a broker acceptable to the Company to promptly deliver to the
Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the exercise price. As
determined by the Committee at the time of grant or exercise, in its sole
discretion, payment in full or in part may also be made in the form of Stock
already owned by the optionee (which in the case of Stock acquired upon exercise
of an option have been owned for more than six months on the date of surrender)
or, in the case of the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, by delivery of
Restricted Stock or Deferred Stock subject to an award hereunder (based, in each
case, on the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date the option is exercised,
as determined by the Committee), provided, however, that, in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option, the right to make a payment in the form of already owned
shares may be authorized only at the time the option is granted, and provided
further that in the event payment is made in the form of shares of Restricted
Stock or a Deferred Stock award, the optionee will receive a portion of the
option shares in the form of, and in an amount equal to, the Restricted Stock or
Deferred Stock award tendered as payment by the optionee. If the terms of an
option so permit, an optionee may elect to pay all or part of the option
exercise price by having the Company withhold from the shares of Stock that
would otherwise be issued upon exercise that number of shares of Stock having a
Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate option exercise price for the shares
with respect to which such election is made. No shares of Stock shall be issued
until full payment therefor has been made. An optionee shall generally have the
rights to dividends and other rights of a shareholder with respect to shares
subject to the option when the optionee has given written notice of exercise,
has paid in full for such shares, and, if requested, has given the
representation described in paragraph (a) of Section 12.

 

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(e) Non-transferability of Options. No Stock Option shall be transferable by the
optionee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and
all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the optionee’s lifetime, only by
the optionee.

 

(f) Termination by Death. If an optionee’s employment by the Company and any
Subsidiary or Parent Corporation terminates by reason of death, the Stock Option
may thereafter be immediately exercised, to the extent then exercisable, by the
legal representative of the estate or by the legatee of the optionee under the
will of the optionee, for a period of twelve months from the date of such death
or until the expiration of the stated term of the option, whichever period is
shorter.

 

(g) Termination by Reason of Disability. If an optionee’s employment by the
Company and any Subsidiary or Parent Corporation terminates by reason of
Disability, any Stock Option held by such optionee may thereafter be exercised,
to the extent it was exercisable at the time of termination due to Disability,
but may not be exercised after twelve months from the date of such termination
of employment or the expiration of the stated term of the option, whichever
period is the shorter. In the event of termination of employment by reason of
Disability, if an Incentive Stock Option is exercised after the expiration of
the exercise periods that apply for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, the
option will thereafter be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

 

(h) Termination by Reason of Retirement. If an optionee’s employment by the
Company and any Subsidiary or Parent Corporation terminates by reason of
Retirement and the terms of the Stock Option so provide, any Stock Option held
by such optionee may thereafter be exercised to the extent it was exercisable at
the time of such Retirement, but may not be exercised after twelve months from
the date of such termination of employment or the expiration of the stated term
of the option, whichever period is the shorter. In the event of termination of
employment by reason of Retirement, if an Incentive Stock Option is exercised
after the expiration of the exercise periods that apply for purposes of
Section 422 of the Code, the option will thereafter be treated as a
Non-Qualified Stock Option.

 

(i) Other Termination. In the event an Optionee’s continuous status as an
Employee or Consultant terminates (other than upon the Optionee’s death or
Disability), the Optionee may exercise his or her Option, but only within such
period of time as is determined by the Committee, and only to the extent that
the Optionee was entitled to exercise it at the date of termination (but in no
event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the
Notice of Grant). In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Committee shall
determine such period of time (in no event to exceed ninety (90) days from the
date of termination) when the Option is granted.

 

(j) Annual Limit on Incentive Stock Options. The aggregate Fair Market Value
(determined as of the time the Stock Option is granted) of the Common Stock with
respect to which an Incentive Stock Option under this Plan or any other plan of
the Company and any Subsidiary or Parent Corporation is exercisable for the
first time by an optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000.

 

9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(k) Directors Who Are Not Employees. Each year on the date of the annual meeting
of shareholders, each person who is not an employee of the Company, any Parent
Corporation or Subsidiary and is serving as a member of the Board of Directors
of the Company immediately following such annual meeting, will automatically,
without any Committee action, be granted a Non-Qualified Stock Option to
purchase 10,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an option price per
share equal to 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such date.
All such Options shall be designated as Non-Qualified Stock Options and shall be
subject to the same terms and provisions as are then in effect with respect to
the grant of Non-Qualified Stock Options to employees of the Company, except
that (i) the term of each such Option shall be equal to ten years; and (ii) the
Option shall immediately become exercisable in full at the time of grant. Upon
termination of a person’s service as a Director of the Company, such Director
will be allowed to exercise such Option for a period of one year after the date
on which such person ceased to be a Director, after which date the Option, if
not exercised, shall terminate. The Committee may elect to grant a similar
Non-Qualified Stock Option, consisting of such number of shares as the Committee
deems appropriate under the circumstances, to any person who is elected to the
Board of Directors between annual meetings of shareholders. Subject to the
foregoing, all provisions of this Plan not inconsistent with the foregoing shall
apply to Options granted pursuant to this Section 5(k).

 

SECTION 6. Stock Appreciation Rights.

 

(a) Grant and Exercise. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted in conjunction
with all or part of any Stock Option granted under the Plan. In the case of a
Non-Qualified Stock Option, such rights may be granted either at or after the
time of the grant of such Option. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, such
rights may be granted only at the time of the grant of the option.

 

A Stock Appreciation Right or applicable portion thereof granted with respect to
a given Stock Option shall terminate and no longer be exercisable upon the
termination or exercise of the related Stock Option, except that a Stock
Appreciation Right granted with respect to less than the full number of shares
covered by a related stock Option shall not be reduced until the exercise or
termination of the related Stock Option exceeds the number of shares not covered
by the Stock Appreciation Right.

 

A Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised by an optionee, in accordance with
paragraph (b) of this Section 6, by surrendering the applicable portion of the
related Stock Option. Upon such exercise and surrender, the optionee shall be
entitled to receive an amount determined in the manner prescribed in paragraph
(b) of this Section 6. Stock Options which have been so surrendered, in whole or
in part, shall no longer be exercisable to the extent the related Stock
Appreciation Rights have been exercised.

 

(b) Terms and Conditions. Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to such
terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as shall
be determined from time to time by the Committee, including the following:

 

10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(i) Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable only at such time or times
and to the extent that the Stock Options to which they relate shall be
exercisable in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 and this Section 6 of
the Plan.

 

(ii) Upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, an optionee shall be
entitled to receive up to, but not more than, an amount in cash or shares of
Stock equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of one share of
Stock over the option price per share specified in the related option multiplied
by the number of shares in respect of which the Stock Appreciation Right shall
have been exercised, with the Committee having the right to determine the form
of payment.

 

(iii) Stock Appreciation Rights shall be transferable only when and to the
extent that the underlying Stock Option would be transferable under Section 5 of
the Plan.

 

(iv) Upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Stock Option or part
thereof to which such Stock Appreciation Right is related shall be deemed to
have been exercised for the purpose of the limitation set forth in Section 3 of
the Plan on the number of shares of Stock to be issued under the Plan, but only
to the extent of the number of shares issued or issuable under the Stock
Appreciation Right at the time of exercise based on the value of the Stock
Appreciation Right at such time.

 

(v) A Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with an Incentive Stock
Option may be exercised only if and when the market price of the Stock subject
to the Incentive Stock Option exceeds the exercise price of such Option.

 

SECTION 7. Restricted Stock.

 

(a) Administration. Shares of Restricted Stock may be issued either alone or in
addition to other awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall determine
the officers, key employees and Consultants of the Company and Subsidiaries to
whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Restricted Stock will be made,
the number of shares to be awarded, the time or times within which such awards
may be subject to forfeiture, and all other conditions of the awards. The
Committee may also condition the grant of Restricted Stock upon the attainment
of specified performance goals. The provisions of Restricted Stock awards need
not be the same with respect to each recipient.

 

(b) Awards and Certificates. The prospective recipient of an award of shares of
Restricted Stock shall not have any rights with respect to such award, unless
and until such recipient has executed an agreement evidencing the award and has
delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, and has otherwise
complied with the then applicable terms and conditions.

 

(i) Each participant shall be issued a stock certificate in respect of shares of
Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan. Such certificate shall be registered in
the name of the participant, and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to
the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such award, substantially
in the following form:

 

11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented
hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) of the
Amended and Restated Urologix, Inc. 1991 Stock Plan and an Agreement entered
into between the registered owner and Urologix, Inc. Copies of such Plan and
Agreement are on file in the offices of Urologix, Inc., 14405 21st Avenue North,
Minneapolis, MN 55447.”

 

(ii) The Committee shall require that the stock certificates evidencing such
shares be held in custody by the Company until the restrictions thereon shall
have lapsed, and that, as a condition of any Restricted Stock award, the
participant shall have delivered a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to
the Stock covered by such award.

 

(c) Restrictions and Conditions. The shares of Restricted Stock awarded pursuant
to the Plan shall be subject to the following restrictions and conditions:

 

(i) Subject to the provisions of this Plan and the award agreement, during a
period set by the Committee commencing with the date of such award (the
“Restriction Period”), the participant shall not be permitted to sell, transfer,
pledge or assign shares of Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan. The
Committee may provide for the lapse of such restrictions in installments where
deemed appropriate.

 

(ii) Except as provided in paragraph (c)(i) of this Section 7, the participant
shall have, with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, all of the rights of
a shareholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares and the
right to receive any cash dividends. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may
permit or require the payment of cash dividends to be deferred and, if the
Committee so determines, reinvested in additional shares of Restricted Stock (to
the extent shares are available under Section 3 and subject to paragraph (f) of
Section 12). Certificates for shares of unrestricted Stock shall be delivered to
the grantee promptly after, and only after, the period of forfeiture shall have
expired without forfeiture in respect of such shares of Restricted Stock.

 

(iii) Subject to the provisions of the award agreement and paragraph (c)(iv) of
this Section 7, upon termination of employment for any reason during the
Restriction Period, all shares still subject to restriction shall be forfeited
by the participant.

 

(iv) In the event of special hardship circumstances of a participant whose
employment is terminated (other than for Cause), including death, Disability or
Retirement, or in the event of an unforeseeable emergency of a participant still
in service, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, when it finds that a
waiver would be in the best interest of the Company, waive in whole or in part
any or all remaining restrictions with respect to such participant’s shares of
Restricted Stock.

 

(v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the sale by the Company of
substantially all of its assets and the consequent discontinuance of its
business, or in the event of a merger, exchange, consolidation or liquidation of
the Company, the Board shall, in its

 

12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sole discretion, in connection with the Board’s adoption of the plan for sale,
merger, exchange, consolidation or liquidation, provide for one or more of the
following with respect to Restricted Stock Awards that are, on such date, still
subject to a Restriction Period: (i) the removal of the restrictions on any or
all outstanding Restricted Stock Awards; (ii) the complete termination of this
Plan and forfeiture of outstanding Restricted Stock Awards prior to a date
specified by the Board; and (iii) the continuance of the Plan with respect to
the Restricted Stock Award which were outstanding as of the date of adoption by
the Board of such plan for sale, merger, exchange, consolidation or liquidation
and provide to participants holding Restricted Stock Awards the right to an
equivalent number of restricted shares of stock of the corporation succeeding
the Company by reason of such sale, merger, exchange, consolidation or
liquidation. The grant of a Restricted Stock Award pursuant to the Plan shall
not limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments,
reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business
structure or to merge, exchange or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate, sell
or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

 

SECTION 8. Deferred Stock Awards.

 

(a) Administration. Deferred Stock may be awarded either alone or in addition to
other awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the officers,
key employees, members of the Board of Directors and Consultants of the Company
and Subsidiaries to whom and the time or times at which Deferred Stock shall be
awarded, the number of Shares of Deferred Stock to be awarded to any participant
or group of participants, the duration of the period (the “Deferral Period”)
during which, and the conditions under which, receipt of the Stock will be
deferred, and the terms and conditions of the award in addition to those
contained in paragraph (b) of this Section 8. The Committee may also condition
the grant of Deferred Stock upon the attainment of specified performance goals.
The provisions of Deferred Stock awards need not be the same with respect to
each recipient.

 

(b) Terms and Conditions.

 

(i) Subject to the provisions of this Plan and the award agreement, Deferred
Stock awards may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise
encumbered during the Deferral Period. At the expiration of the Deferral Period
(or Elective Deferral Period, where applicable), share certificates shall be
delivered to the participant, or his legal representative, in a number equal to
the shares covered by the Deferred Stock award.

 

(ii) Amounts equal to any dividends declared during the Deferral Period with
respect to the number of shares covered by a Deferred Stock award will be paid
to the participant currently or deferred and deemed to be reinvested in
additional Deferred Stock or otherwise reinvested, all as determined at the time
of the award by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

 

13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(iii) Subject to the provisions of the award agreement and paragraph (b)(iv) of
this Section 8, upon termination of employment for any reason during the
Deferral Period for a given award, the Deferred Stock in question shall be
forfeited by the participant.

 

(iv) In the event of special hardship circumstances of a participant whose
employment is terminated (other than for Cause) including death, Disability or
Retirement, or in the event of an unforeseeable emergency of a participant still
in service, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, when it finds that a
waiver would be in the best interest of the Company, waive in whole or in part
any or all of the remaining deferral limitations imposed hereunder with respect
to any or all of the participant’s Deferred Stock.

 

(v) A participant may elect to further defer receipt of the award for a
specified period or until a specified event (the “Elective Deferral Period”),
subject in each case to the Committee’s approval and to such terms as are
determined by the Committee, all in its sole discretion. Subject to any
exceptions adopted by the Committee, such election must generally be made prior
to completion of one half of the Deferral Period for a Deferred Stock award (or
for an installment of such an award).

 

(vi) Each award shall be confirmed by, and subject to the terms of, a Deferred
Stock agreement executed by the Company and the participant.

 

SECTION 9. Transfer, Leave of Absence, etc.

 

For purposes of the Plan, the following events shall not be deemed a termination
of employment:

 

(a) a transfer of an employee from the Company to a Parent Corporation or
Subsidiary, or from a Parent Corporation or Subsidiary to the Company, or from
one Subsidiary to another;

 

(b) a leave of absence, approved in writing by the Committee, for military
service or sickness, or for any other purpose approved by the Company if the
period of such leave does not exceed ninety (90) days (or such longer period as
the Committee may approve, in its sole discretion); and

 

(c) a leave of absence in excess of ninety (90) days, approved in writing by the
Committee, but only if the employee’s right to reemployment is guaranteed either
by a statute or by contract, and provided that, in the case of any leave of
absence, the employee returns to work within 30 days after the end of such
leave.

 

SECTION 10. Amendments and Termination.

 

The Board may amend, alter, or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment,
alteration, or discontinuation shall be made (i) which would impair the rights
of an optionee or participant under a Stock Option, Restricted Stock or other
Stock-based award theretofore granted, without the optionee’s or participant’s
consent, or (ii) which without the approval of the stockholders of

 

14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the Company would cause the Plan to no longer comply with Rule 16b-3 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Section 422 of the Code or any other regulatory
requirements.

 

The Committee may amend the terms of any award or option theretofore granted,
prospectively or retroactively to the extent such amendment is consistent with
the terms of this Plan, but no such amendment shall impair the rights of any
holder without his or her consent except to the extent authorized under the
Plan. The Committee may also substitute new Stock Options for previously granted
options, including previously granted options having higher option prices.

 

SECTION 11. Unfunded Status of Plan.

 

The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred
compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a participant or
optionee by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such
participant or optionee any rights that are greater than those of a general
creditor of the Company. In its sole discretion, the Committee may authorize the
creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under
the Plan to deliver Stock or payments in lieu of or with respect to awards
hereunder, provided, however, that the existence of such trusts or other
arrangements is consistent with the unfunded status of the Plan.

 

SECTION 12. General Provisions.

 

(a) The Committee may require each person purchasing shares pursuant to a Stock
Option under the Plan to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that
the optionee is acquiring the shares without a view to distribution thereof. The
certificates for such shares may include any legend which the Committee deems
appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer.

 

All certificates for shares of Stock delivered under the Plan pursuant to any
Restricted Stock, Deferred Stock or other Stock-based awards shall be subject to
such stock-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem
advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Stock is then listed,
and any applicable Federal or state securities laws, and the Committee may cause
a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate
reference to such restrictions.

 

(b) Subject to paragraph (d) below, recipients of Restricted Stock, Deferred
Stock and other Stock-based awards under the Plan (other than Stock Options) are
not required to make any payment or provide consideration other than the
rendering of services.

 

(c) Nothing contained in this Plan shall prevent the Board of Directors from
adopting other or additional compensation arrangements, subject to stockholder
approval if such approval is required; and such arrangements may be either
generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. The adoption of the
Plan shall not confer upon any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary any
right to continued employment with the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case

 

15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

may be, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or a
Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any of its employees at any time.

 

(d) Each participant shall, no later than the date as of which any part of the
value of an award first becomes includible as compensation in the gross income
of the participant for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make
arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any Federal,
state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to
the award. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on
such payment or arrangements and the Company and Subsidiaries shall, to the
extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any
payment of any kind otherwise due to the participant. With respect to any award
under the Plan, if the terms of such award so permit, a participant may elect by
written notice to the Company to satisfy part or all of the withholding tax
requirements associated with the award by (i) authorizing the Company to retain
from the number of shares of Stock that would otherwise be deliverable to the
participant, or (ii) delivering to the Company from shares of Stock already
owned by the participant, that number of shares having an aggregate Fair Market
Value equal to part or all of the tax payable by the participant under this
Section 12(d). Any such election shall be in accordance with, and subject to,
applicable tax and securities laws, regulations and rulings.

 

(e) At the time of grant, the Committee may provide in connection with any grant
made under this Plan that the shares of Stock received as a result of such grant
shall be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company, pursuant to
which the participant shall be required to offer to the Company upon termination
of employment for any reason any shares that the participant acquired under the
Plan, with the price being the then Fair Market Value of the Stock or, in the
case of a termination for Cause, an amount equal to the cash consideration paid
for the Stock, subject to such other terms and conditions as the Committee may
specify at the time of grant. The Committee may, at the time of the grant of an
award under the Plan, provide the Company with the right to repurchase, or
require the forfeiture of, shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan by any
participant who, at any time within two years after termination of employment
with the Company, directly or indirectly competes with, or is employed by a
competitor of, the Company.

 

(f) The reinvestment of dividends in additional Restricted Stock (or in Deferred
Stock or other types of Plan awards) at the time of any dividend payment shall
only be permissible if the Committee (or the Company’s chief financial officer)
certifies in writing that under Section 3 sufficient shares are available for
such reinvestment (taking into account then outstanding Stock Options and other
Plan awards).
