Exhibit 10.1
BIOCLINICA, INC.
2002 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
AS AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE MAY 11, 2005
AND AS SUBSEQUENTLY AMENDED AND RESTATED MAY 14, 2008 AND
JANUARY 20, 2010
ARTICLE ONE
GENERAL PROVISIONS
     I. PURPOSE OF THE PLAN
          The 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “Plan”),
is intended to promote the interests of BioClinica, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, by providing eligible persons in the Corporation’s service with the
opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest, or otherwise increase their
proprietary interest, in the Corporation as an incentive for them to remain in
such service.
          The Plan was amended and restated in its entirety in (i) 2005 and
approved by the Corporation’s stockholders at the 2005 Annual Meeting held on
May 11, 2005 (the “2005 Restatement”) and (ii) 2008 and approved by the
Corporation’s stockholders at the 2008 Annual Meeting held on May 14, 2008 (the
“2008 Restatement”). The purpose of this 2010 Amendment and Restatement (the
“2010 Restatement”) is to effect the following changes to the 2008 Restatement,
which do not require stockholder approval:
          (i) change the name of the Corporation from Bio-Imaging Technologies,
Inc. to BioClinica, Inc.; and
          (ii) exempt grants of options to new Employees of the Corporation as
inducement for their employment from the limitation on the maximum number of
shares for which options may be granted in the aggregate under the Plan in any
fiscal year pursuant to Article One, Section V.B. under the 2008 Restatement.
          Capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in
the attached Appendix.
     II. STRUCTURE OF THE PLAN
          The Plan shall consist of a Discretionary Grant Program under which
eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be granted
options to purchase shares of

 

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

 

Common Stock or be issued such shares pursuant to restricted stock or restricted
stock unit awards.
     III. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
          A. The Compensation Committee shall have sole and exclusive authority
to administer the Discretionary Grant Program with respect to Section 16
Insiders. Administration of the Discretionary Grant Program with respect to all
other persons eligible to participate in that program may, at the Board’s
discretion, be vested in the Compensation Committee or a Secondary Board
Committee, or the Board may retain the power to administer the program with
respect to all such persons. However, any discretionary option grants or other
awards for members of the Compensation Committee must be authorized by a
disinterested majority of the Board.
          B. Members of the Compensation Committee or any Secondary Board
Committee shall serve for such period of time as the Board may determine and may
be removed by the Board at any time. The Board may also at any time terminate
the functions of any Secondary Board Committee and reassume all powers and
authority previously delegated to such committee.
          C. Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its
administrative functions under the Plan, have full power and authority (subject
to the provisions of the Plan) to establish such rules and regulations as it may
deem appropriate for proper administration of the Discretionary Grant Program
and to make such determinations under, and issue such interpretations of, the
provisions of that program and any outstanding options or other awards
thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable. Decisions of the Plan
Administrator within the scope of its administrative functions under the Plan
shall be final and binding on all parties who have an interest in the
Discretionary Grant Program under its jurisdiction or any stock option or other
award thereunder.
          D. Service as a Plan Administrator by the members of the Compensation
Committee or the Secondary Board Committee shall constitute service as Board
members, and the members of each such committee shall accordingly be entitled to
full indemnification and reimbursement as Board members for their service on
such committee. No member of the Compensation Committee or the Secondary Board
Committee shall be liable for any act or omission made in good faith with
respect to the Plan or any option grant or other award thereunder.
     IV. ELIGIBILITY
          A. The persons eligible to participate in the Discretionary Grant
Program are as follows:
               (i) Employees,

2

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

 

               (ii) non-employee members of the Board or the board of directors
of any Parent or Subsidiary, and
               (iii) consultants and other independent advisors who provide
services to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).
          B. The Plan Administrator shall have full authority to determine, with
respect to the grant of options or other awards under the Discretionary Grant
Program, which eligible persons are to receive such grants or awards, the time
or times when those grants or awards are to be made, the number of shares to be
covered by each such grant or award, the time or times when any granted option
is to become exercisable, the vesting schedule (if any) applicable to each grant
or award, the maximum term for which a granted option is to remain outstanding
and the status of that option as either an Incentive Option or a Non-Statutory
Option.
          C. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board may delegate
to one or more executive officers of the Corporation the power to grant stock
options under the Plan to one or more Employees and to exercise such other
powers under the Plan as the Board may determine; provided, however, that, the
Board shall fix the terms of the option grants to be made by such executive
officers (including the exercise price of any awarded stock options, which may
include a formula by which such exercise price is to be determined, the
applicable vesting schedules and the maximum option term) and the maximum number
of shares for which stock options may be granted by such executive officers. In
no event, however, shall any executive officer be authorized to make option
grants to any Section 16 Insider.
     V. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
          A. The stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of authorized but
unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the
Corporation on the open market. The number of shares of Common Stock reserved
for issuance over the remaining term of the Plan shall be limited to two million
six hundred thirty eight thousand two hundred and eight (2,638,208) shares. Such
share reserve is comprised of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock which
remained available for issuance under the Plan on the May 11, 2005 effective
date of the 2005 Restatement, including the portion of those shares subject to
options outstanding under the Plan on that date, plus (ii) an additional
1,000,000-share increase which was approved by the Corporation’s stockholders at
the 2008 Annual Meeting. All options or other awards outstanding under the Plan
on the 2010 Restatement Effective Date shall continue in full force and effect
in accordance with their terms, and no provision of this 2010 Restatement shall
be deemed to affect or otherwise modify the rights or obligations of the holders
of those options or awards with respect to their acquisition of shares of Common
Stock thereunder.
          B. The maximum number of shares for which options may be granted in
the aggregate in any fiscal year of the Corporation shall be limited to three
percent (3%) of (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock actually
outstanding at the start of that fiscal year plus (ii) any additional shares of
Common Stock newly issued in that year as a result of new equity investments in
the Corporation (including exercises of outstanding options under the Plan) or
the

3

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

 

Corporation’s acquisitions of other companies or enterprises for consideration
payable in Common Stock; provided, however, any grants made by the Corporation
to new Employees as inducement for their employment shall not be considered in
calculating the number of shares remaining for which options may be granted by
the Corporation for that fiscal year.
          C. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which any one
person may be granted restricted stock or restricted unit awards under the Plan
in any calendar year shall be limited to fifty thousand (50,000) shares. Such
restricted stock or restricted stock unit awards shall vest upon the attainment
of designated performance goals or the satisfaction of specified Service
requirements.
          D. No one person may receive stock options or other awards under the
Plan for more than two hundred thousand (200,000) shares of Common Stock in the
aggregate per calendar year.
          E. Shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding options or other
awards made under the Plan shall be available for subsequent grant under the
Plan to the extent those options or awards expire or terminate for any reason
prior to the issuance of the shares of Common Stock subject to those options or
awards. Unvested shares issued under the Plan and subsequently forfeited or
repurchased by the Corporation, at a price per share not greater than the
original issue price paid per share, pursuant to the Corporation’s repurchase
rights under the Plan shall be added back to the number of shares of Common
Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan and shall accordingly be available
for subsequent reissuance. Should the exercise price of an option under the Plan
be paid with shares of Common Stock, then the authorized reserve of Common Stock
under the Plan shall be reduced by the gross number of shares for which that
option is exercised, and not by the net number of shares issued under the
exercised stock option. If shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under the
Plan are withheld by the Corporation in satisfaction of the withholding taxes
incurred in connection with the exercise of an option or the vesting or issuance
of shares under Plan, then the number of shares of Common Stock available for
issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by the gross number of shares issuable
under the exercised stock option or the total number of shares vesting or
issued, calculated in each instance prior to any such share withholding.
          F. If any change is made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock
split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of
shares, spin-off transaction or other change affecting the outstanding Common
Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt of consideration, or should
the value of outstanding shares of Common Stock be substantially reduced as a
result of a spin-off transaction or an extraordinary dividend or distribution,
then the Compensation Committee shall make equitable adjustments to: (i) the
maximum number and/or class of securities issuable under the Plan; (ii) the
maximum number and/or class of securities for which any one person may be
granted stock options or other awards in the aggregate under the Plan per
calendar year, (iii) the maximum number and/or class of securities for which any
one person be awarded restricted stock or restricted stock units under the Plan
per calendar year, (iv) the number and/or class of securities and the exercise
price per share

4

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

 

in effect under each outstanding option and (v) the number and/or class of
securities subject to each outstanding restricted stock unit or other
stock-based award under the Plan and the cash consideration (if any) payable per
share. Such adjustments shall be made by the Compensation Committee in such
manner as it deems appropriate, and the adjustments shall be final, binding and
conclusive upon each person holding an option or other award under the Plan. The
foregoing adjustment provisions shall govern all options and awards outstanding
under the Plan on the 2010 Restatement Effective Date and all options and awards
granted under the Plan thereafter; provided, however, that each Incentive Option
outstanding under the Plan on the 2010 Restatement Plan Effective Date shall
continue to be governed by the capital adjustment provisions of this Section V.F
of Article One as in effect at the time that Incentive Option was granted.
          G. Outstanding options or other awards granted pursuant to the Plan
shall in no way affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify,
reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge,
consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its
business or assets.

ARTICLE TWO
DISCRETIONARY GRANT PROGRAM
     I. OPTION TERMS
          Each option shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form
approved by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that each such document
shall comply with the terms specified below. Each document evidencing an
Incentive Option shall, in addition, be subject to the provisions of the Plan
applicable to such options.
          A. Exercise Price.
               1. The exercise price per share shall be fixed by the Plan
Administrator; provided, however, that such exercise price shall not be less
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock on the grant date.
               2. The exercise price shall become immediately due upon exercise
of the option and shall, subject to the provisions of the documents evidencing
the option, be payable in one or more of the forms specified below:
               (i) cash or check made payable to the Corporation,
               (ii) shares of Common Stock held for the requisite period (if
any) necessary to avoid any resulting charge to the Corporation’s earnings for
financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise
Date, or
               (iii) to the extent the option is exercised for vested shares,
through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee
shall concurrently provide instructions to (a) a brokerage firm (reasonably
satisfactory to the Corporation for purposes of administering such procedure in
compliance with the Corporation’s pre-clearance/pre-notification policies) to
effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Corporation,
out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to
cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased shares plus all
applicable income and employment taxes required to be withheld by the
Corporation by reason of such exercise and (b) the Corporation to deliver the
certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm on such
settlement date in order to complete the sale.
          Except to the extent such sale and remittance procedure is utilized,
payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on the
Exercise Date.

6

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

 

          B. Exercise and Term of Options. Each option shall be exercisable at
such time or times, during such period and for such number of shares as shall be
determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the documents evidencing
the option. However, no option granted under the 2005 Restatement shall have a
term in excess of seven (7) years measured from the option grant date.
          C. Effect of Termination of Service.
               1. The following provisions shall govern the exercise of any
options granted pursuant to the Discretionary Grant Program that are outstanding
at the time of the Optionee’s cessation of Service or death:
               (i) Any option outstanding at the time of the Optionee’s
cessation of Service for any reason shall remain exercisable for such period of
time thereafter as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth
in the documents evidencing the option, but no such option shall be exercisable
after the expiration of the option term.
               (ii) Any option held by the Optionee at the time of the
Optionee’s death may, to the extent vested and exercisable at that time, be
subsequently exercised by the personal representative of the Optionee’s estate
or by the person or persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant to the
Optionee’s will or the laws of inheritance or by the Optionee’s designated
beneficiary or beneficiaries of that option.
               (iii) Should the Optionee’s Service be terminated for Misconduct
or should the Optionee otherwise engage in Misconduct while holding one or more
outstanding options granted under this Article Two, then all of those options
shall terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding.
               (iv) During the applicable post-Service exercise period, the
option may not be exercised for more than the number of vested shares for which
the option is at the time exercisable. No additional shares shall vest under the
option following the Optionee’s cessation of Service, except to the extent (if
any) specifically authorized by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion
pursuant to an express written agreement with the Optionee. Upon the expiration
of the applicable exercise period or (if earlier) upon the expiration of the
option term, the option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any
shares for which the option has not been exercised.
               2. The Plan Administrator shall have complete discretion,
exercisable either at the time an option is granted or at any time while the
option remains outstanding, to:

7

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

 

               (i) extend the period of time for which the option is to remain
exercisable following the Optionee’s cessation of Service from the limited
exercise period otherwise in effect for that option to such greater period of
time as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate, but in no event beyond
the expiration of the option term,
               (ii) include an automatic extension provision whereby the
specified post-Service exercise period in effect for any option granted under
this Article Two shall automatically be extended by an additional period of time
equal in duration to any interval within the specified post-Service exercise
period during which the exercise of that option or the immediate sale of the
shares acquired under such option could not be effected in compliance with
applicable federal and state securities laws, but in no event shall such an
extension result in the continuation of such option beyond the expiration date
of the term of that option, and/or
               (iii) permit the option to be exercised, during the applicable
post-Service exercise period, not only with respect to the number of vested
shares of Common Stock for which such option is exercisable at the time of the
Optionee’s cessation of Service but also with respect to one or more additional
installments in which the Optionee would have vested had the Optionee continued
in Service.
          D. Stockholder Rights. The holder of an option shall have no
stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the option until such
person shall have exercised the option, paid the exercise price and become a
holder of record of the purchased shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event the outstanding shares of Common Stock are split by means of a stock
dividend and the exercise price of and the number of shares subject to
outstanding options under the Plan are to be adjusted as of the date of the
distribution of the dividend (rather than as of the record date for such
dividend), then an Optionee who exercises such an option between the record date
and the distribution date for that stock dividend shall be entitled to receive,
on the distribution date, the stock dividend with respect to the shares of
Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of such Option, notwithstanding the fact
that such shares were not outstanding as of the close of business on the record
date for such stock dividend.
          E. Repurchase Rights. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretion
to grant options which are exercisable for unvested shares of Common Stock.
Should the Optionee cease Service while such shares are unvested, the
Corporation shall have the right to repurchase any or all of those unvested
shares at a price per share equal to the lower of (i) the exercise price paid
per share or (ii) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock at the time of
repurchase. The terms upon which such repurchase right shall be exercisable
(including the

8

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

 

period and procedure for exercise and the appropriate vesting schedule for the
purchased shares) shall be established by the Plan Administrator and set forth
in the document evidencing such repurchase right.
          F. Transferability of Options. The transferability of options granted
under the Plan shall be governed by the following provisions:
               (i) Incentive Options: During the lifetime of the Optionee,
Incentive Options shall be exercisable only by the Optionee and shall not be
assignable or transferable other than by will or the laws of inheritance
following the Optionee’s death.
               (ii) Non-Statutory Options. Non-Statutory Options shall be
subject to the same limitation on transfer as Incentive Options, except that the
Plan Administrator may structure one or more Non-Statutory Options so that the
option may be assigned in whole or in part during the Optionee’s lifetime, by
gift or pursuant to a domestic relations order, to one or more Family Members of
the Optionee or to a trust established exclusively for one or more such Family
Members. The assigned portion may only be exercised by the person or persons who
acquire a proprietary interest in the option pursuant to the assignment. The
terms applicable to the assigned portion shall be the same as those in effect
for the option immediately prior to such assignment and shall be set forth in
such documents issued to the assignee as the Plan Administrator may deem
appropriate.
               (iii) Beneficiary Designations. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Optionee may designate one or more persons as the beneficiary or
beneficiaries of his or her outstanding options under this Article Two (whether
Incentive Options or Non-Statutory Options), and those options shall, in
accordance with such designation, automatically be transferred to such
beneficiary or beneficiaries upon the Optionee’s death while holding those
options. Such beneficiary or beneficiaries shall take the transferred options
subject to all the terms and conditions of the applicable agreement evidencing
each such transferred option, including (without limitation) the limited time
period during which the option may be exercised following the Optionee’s death.
     II. INCENTIVE OPTIONS
          The terms specified below shall be applicable to all Incentive
Options. Except as modified by the provisions of this Section II, all the
provisions of Articles One, Two and Five shall be applicable to Incentive
Options. Options which are specifically designated as Non-Statutory Options when
issued under the Plan shall not be subject to the terms of this Section II.
          A. Eligibility. Incentive Options may only be granted to Employees.
          B. Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of
Common Stock (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) for which
one or more options granted to any Employee under the Plan (or any other option
plan of the Corporation or

9

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

 

any Parent or Subsidiary) may for the first time become exercisable as Incentive
Options during any one calendar year shall not exceed the sum of One Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($100,000).
               To the extent the Employee holds two (2) or more such options
which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, then for
purposes of the foregoing limitations on the exercisability of those options as
Incentive Options, such options shall be deemed to become first exercisable in
that calendar year on the basis of the chronological order in which they were
granted, except to the extent otherwise provided under applicable law or
regulation.
          C. 10% Stockholder. If any Employee to whom an Incentive Option is
granted is a 10% Stockholder, then the exercise price per share shall not be
less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock on the option grant date, and the option term shall not exceed five
(5) years measured from the option grant date.
     III. CHANGE IN CONTROL
          A. In the event of a Change in Control, each outstanding option under
the Discretionary Grant Program shall automatically accelerate so that each such
option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of that Change in Control,
become exercisable as to all the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to
such option and may be exercised as to any or all of those shares as fully
vested shares of Common Stock. However, an outstanding option shall not become
exercisable on such an accelerated basis if and to the extent: (i) such option
is to be assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or is
otherwise to continue in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the
Change in Control transaction or (ii) such option is to be replaced with a cash
retention program of the successor corporation which preserves the spread
existing at the time of the Change in Control on any shares as to which the
option is not otherwise at that time exercisable and provides for subsequent
vesting and payout of that spread in accordance with the same exercise/vesting
schedule applicable to those shares or (iii) the acceleration of such option is
subject to other limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator.
          B. All outstanding repurchase rights under the Discretionary Grant
Program shall automatically terminate, and the shares of Common Stock subject to
those terminated rights shall immediately vest in full, in the event of a Change
in Control, except to the extent: (i) those repurchase rights are to be assigned
to the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are otherwise to continue in
full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction
or (ii) such accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed by
the Plan Administrator.
          C. Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control,
all outstanding options under the Discretionary Grant Program shall terminate
and cease to be outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor
corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise continued in full force and effect
pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction.

10

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

 

          D. Each option which is assumed in connection with a Change in Control
or otherwise continued in effect shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately
after such Change in Control, to apply to the number and class of securities
which would have been issuable to the Optionee in consummation of such Change in
Control had the option been exercised immediately prior to such Change in
Control. Appropriate adjustments to reflect such Change in Control shall also be
made to (i) the exercise price payable per share under each outstanding option,
provided the aggregate exercise price payable for such securities shall remain
the same, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of securities available for
issuance over the remaining term of the Plan, (iii) the maximum number and/or
class of securities for which any one person may be granted stock options and
other awards in the aggregate under the Plan per calendar year and (iv) the
maximum number and/or class of securities for which any one person be awarded
restricted stock or restricted stock units under the Plan per calendar year. To
the extent the actual holders of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock
receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change
in Control, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption or
continuation of the outstanding options under the Discretionary Grant Program,
substitute one or more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value
equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such
Change in Control transaction.
          E. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to
structure one or more outstanding options under the Discretionary Grant Program
so that those options shall, immediately prior to the effective date of a Change
in Control, become exercisable as to all the shares of Common Stock at the time
subject to those options and may be exercised as to any or all of those shares
as fully vested shares of Common Stock, whether or not those options are to be
assumed in the Change in Control transaction or otherwise continued in effect.
In addition, the Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to
structure one or more of the Corporation’s repurchase rights under the
Discretionary Grant Program so that those rights shall immediately terminate
upon the consummation of the Change in Control transaction, and the shares
subject to those terminated rights shall thereupon vest in full.
          F. The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority to
structure one or more outstanding options under the Discretionary Grant Program
so that those options shall become exercisable as to all the shares of Common
Stock at the time subject to those options in the event the Optionee’s Service
is subsequently terminated by reason of an Involuntary Termination within a
designated period following the effective date of any Change in Control
transaction in which those options do not otherwise fully accelerate. In
addition, the Plan Administrator may structure one or more of the Corporation’s
repurchase rights so that those rights shall immediately terminate with respect
to any shares held by the Optionee at the time of such Involuntary Termination,
and the shares subject to those terminated repurchase rights shall accordingly
vest in full at that time.
          G. The portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in connection with
a Change in Control shall remain exercisable as an Incentive Option only to the
extent the applicable One Hundred Thousand Dollar ($100,000) limitation is not
exceeded. To the extent

11

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

 

such dollar limitation is exceeded, the accelerated portion of such option shall
be exercisable as a Non-statutory Option under the Federal tax laws.
     IV. PROHIBITION ON REPRICING PROGRAMS
          The Plan Administrator shall not (i) implement any
cancellation/regrant program pursuant to which outstanding options under the
Plan are cancelled and new options are granted in replacement with a lower
exercise price per share, (ii) cancel outstanding options under the Plan with
exercise prices per share in excess of the then current Fair Market Value per
share of Common Stock for consideration payable in equity securities of the
Corporation or (iii) otherwise directly reduce the exercise price in effect for
outstanding options under the Plan, without in each such instance obtaining
stockholder approval.
     V. STOCK ISSUANCE TERMS
          A. Shares of Common Stock may also be issued under the Discretionary
Grant Program, either as vested or unvested shares, through direct and immediate
issuances without any intervening option grants and without cash consideration
payable for the shares. Each such stock issuance shall be evidenced by a Stock
Issuance Agreement which complies with the terms specified below. Shares of
Common Stock may also be issued pursuant to share right awards or restricted
stock units which entitle the recipients to receive the shares underlying those
awards or units upon the attainment of designated performance goals or the
satisfaction of specified Service requirements or upon the expiration of a
designated time period following the vesting of those awards or units. However,
the maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which any one person may be
granted restricted stock or restricted unit awards under the Plan in any
calendar year shall be limited to fifty thousand (50,000) shares, subject to
adjustment from time to time in accordance with Section V.F. of Article One. The
terms and conditions of each such award or restricted stock unit, (including,
without limitation, the applicable vesting schedule and vesting acceleration
provisions) shall be determined by the Plan Administrator.
          B. The Plan Administrator shall also have the discretionary authority,
consistent with Code Section 162(m), to structure one or more restricted stock
issuances or restricted stock unit awards so that the shares of Common Stock
subject to those issuances or awards shall vest (or vest and become issuable)
upon the achievement of certain pre-established corporate performance goals
based on one or more of the following criteria: (1) return on total stockholder
equity; (2) earnings per share of Common Stock; (3) net income or operating
income (before or after taxes); (4) earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization; (5) earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, amortization and charges for stock-based compensation, (6) sales
or revenue targets; (7) return on assets, capital or investment; (8) cash flow;
(9) market share; (10) cost reduction goals; (11) budget comparisons;
(12) measures of customer satisfaction; (13) any combination of, or a specified
increase in, any of the foregoing; (14) new product development or successful
completion of research and development projects; and (15) the formation of joint
ventures, research or development collaborations, or the completion of other
corporate transactions intended to enhance the Corporation’s revenue or

12

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

 

profitability or enhance its customer base. In addition, such performance goals
may be based upon the attainment of specified levels of the Corporation’s
performance under one or more of the measures described above relative to the
performance of other entities and may also be based on the performance of any of
the Corporation’s business units or divisions or any Parent or Subsidiary.
Performance goals may include a minimum threshold level of performance below
which no award will be earned, levels of performance at which specified portions
of an award will be earned and a maximum level of performance at which an award
will be fully earned.
          C. The recipient shall have full stockholder rights with respect to
any shares of Common Stock issued to him or her under the Plan, whether or not
the recipient’s interest in those shares is vested. Accordingly, such individual
shall have the right to vote such shares and to receive any dividends paid on
such shares, subject to any applicable vesting requirements. The recipient shall
not have any stockholder rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock
subject to a restricted stock unit until that unit vests and the shares of
Common Stock are actually issued thereunder. However, dividend-equivalent units

such terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate.

and cancellation of one or more unvested shares of Common Stock or restricted
stock units which would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the recipient’s
Service or the non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to those

recipient’s interest in the shares of Common Stock or restricted stock units as
to which the waiver applies. Such waiver may be effected at any time, whether
before or after the recipient’s cessation of Service or the attainment or
non-attainment of the applicable performance objectives. However, no vesting
requirements tied to the attainment of performance objectives may be waived with
respect to shares or units which were intended at the time of issuance to
qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), except in
connection with a Change in Control or, with respect to awards made prior to
January 1, 2009, in the event of the recipient’s Involuntary Termination.
          E. The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority to
structure one or more restricted stock or restricted stock unit awards under the
Plan so that those awards shall vest, and all the underlying shares shall become
immediately issuable, upon the effecitve date of a Change in Control transaction
or in the event the individual’s Service is terminated by reason of an
Involuntary Termination within a designated period following the effective date
of the Change in Control transaction.

withholding requirements.
          B. The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, provide one or more
participants in the Plan with the right to use shares of Common Stock in

may become subject in connection with the exercise of their options or the
vesting or issuance of any shares acquired by them under the Plan. Such right
may be provided to any such participant in either or both of the following
formats:
               Stock Withholding: The election to have the Corporation withhold,
from the vested shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon the exercise of
such Non-Statutory Option or upon the vesting or issuance of shares under the
Plan, a portion of those shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the
percentage of the Withholding Taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent (100%))
designated by such person.
               Stock Delivery: The election to deliver to the Corporation, at
the time the Non-Statutory Option is exercised for vested shares or at the time
any shares vest or are issued under the Plan vest, one or more shares of Common
Stock previously acquired by such person (other than in connection with the
option exercise or share vesting or issuance triggering the Withholding Taxes)
with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the Withholding
Taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by such person.
     II. SHARE ESCROW/LEGENDS

          B. Each option or other award outstanding under the Plan immediately
prior to the 2010 Restatement Effective Date shall continue to be governed
solely by the terms of the documents evidencing such option or award, and no
provision of the 2010 Restatement shall be deemed to affect or otherwise modify
the rights or obligations of the holders of such options or awards with respect
to their acquisition of shares of Common Stock thereunder. However, one or more
provisions of the 2010 Restatement may, in the Plan Administrator’s discretion,
be extended to one or more of those options or awards that do not otherwise
contain such provisions.
          C. The Plan as hereby amended and restated shall terminate upon the
earliest to occur of (i) January 13, 2012, (ii) the date on which all shares

documents evidencing such grants or awards.
     IV. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN
          A. The Board shall have complete and exclusive power and authority to
amend or modify the Plan in any or all respects, except with regard to
Article II, Section IV hereof. However, no such amendment or modification shall
adversely affect the rights and obligations with respect to stock options or
other awards at the time outstanding under the Plan unless the Optionee or other
Plan participant consents to such amendment or modification. In addition,
amendments to the Plan will be subject to stockholder approval to the extent
required under applicable law or regulation or pursuant to the listing standards
of the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is at the time primarily traded.
          B. Options may be granted under the Discretionary Grant Program that
in involve shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares then
available for issuance under the Plan, provided no shares shall actually be
issued pursuant to those grants until the number of shares of Common Stock
available for issuance under the Plan is sufficiently increased by stockholder
approval of an amendment of the Plan authorizing such increase. If stockholder
approval is required and is not obtained within twelve (12) months after the
date the first excess grant made against such contingent increase, then any
options granted on the basis of such excess shares shall terminate and cease to
be outstanding.
     V. USE OF PROCEEDS
          Any cash proceeds received by the Corporation from the sale of shares
of Common Stock under the Plan shall be used for general corporate purposes.

required by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Plan, the stock
options or other awards granted under it and the shares of Common Stock issued
pursuant to it.

delivered under the Plan unless and until there shall have been compliance with
all applicable requirements of applicable securities laws, including the filing

Common Stock issuable under the Plan, and all applicable listing requirements of
any Stock Exchange on which Common Stock is then listed for trading.
     VII. NO EMPLOYMENT/SERVICE RIGHTS

or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation
