McAfee, Inc.
1997 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended
Stock Option Agreement
1. Grant of Option. The Company hereby grants Optionee an Option to purchase the
number of shares of the Company’s common stock (“Shares”) under the McAfee, Inc.
1997 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), as set forth in the Notice
of Grant (the “Notice”). The terms of this Option are set forth in the Plan, the
Notice and this Stock Option Agreement including the Appendix (the “Agreement”).
In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the
terms and conditions of this Agreement or the Notice, the terms and conditions
of the Plan shall prevail. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement without
definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan or the
Notice as applicable.
2. Exercise of Option.
     (a) Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in
accordance with the vesting schedule and restrictions on exercisability set
forth in the Notice and the applicable provisions of the Plan and this
Agreement.
     (b) Method of Exercise.
          (i) This Option may be exercised through the Company’s designated
broker. The Optionee shall specify the number of Shares being purchased, and the
exercise shall be effective when the online exercise is complete or hard copy
exercise notice is provided to the Company (if permitted) and the aggregate
Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased, and any Tax-Related
Items (as defined in Section 11 below), is received by the Company.
          (ii) No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option
(and no exercise will be permitted) unless such issuance and such exercise
complies with all relevant applicable provisions of law, whether foreign or
domestic, and the requirements of any stock exchange or interdealer quotation
system upon which the Shares may then be listed or traded.
          (iii) If this Option is being exercised by the representative of the
Optionee, the representative must prove the Company’s satisfaction that he or
she is entitled to do so.
3. Method of Payment.
     (a) Unless provided otherwise in the Appendix, payment of the Exercise

Company to sell all or a portion of the Shares subject to the exercised Option,
and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay
the Exercise Price and any Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section 11 below).
The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to Optionee in cash
if all Shares were directed to be sold, or in Shares if only a portion of the
Shares were directed to be sold to cover the Exercise Price and Tax-Related
Items (as defined in Section 11 below). Regardless of the method of payment of
the Exercise Price, the exercise instructions must be received in a form
approved by the Company and Optionee must provide any other documentation
required by the Company at the time of exercise.
     (b) Neither the Optionee nor the Optionee’s representative shall have any
rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares subject to this Option until
the Optionee or the Optionee’s representative becomes entitled to receive such
Shares by completing an exercise as described in Section 2 above and paying the
aggregate Exercise Price pursuant to Section 2 and Section 3(a).
4. Termination of Relationship for Any Reason except Death or Disability. In the
event an Optionee’s active service as an Employee or Consultant terminates for
any reason except Disability (as defined below) or death, Optionee may, to the
extent this Option was vested at the Termination Date (as defined below),
exercise this Option at any time during the 90-day period immediately following
the Termination Date. To the extent that Optionee was

 

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

 

not vested in this Option at the Termination Date, or if Optionee does not
exercise this Option within the time specified herein, this Option shall
terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Option be
exercisable later than the Expiration Date as provided in the Notice.
“Termination Date” shall be defined as the date an Optionee’s active service as
an Employee or Consultant terminates, as determined by the Company in its sole
discretion. For the purposes of this Agreement, the Termination Date will not be
extended to include any notice period mandated under local law.
5. Termination of Relationship in Event of Death or Disability of Optionee. In
the event an Optionee’s active service as an Employee or Consultant terminates
as a result of his or her death or Disability, Optionee (or his or her estate or
legal representative in the event of death) may, to the extent this Option was
vested at the Termination Date, exercise this Option at any time during the
12-month period immediately following the Termination Date. To the extent that
Optionee was not vested in this Option at the Termination Date, or if Optionee
(or his or her estate or legal representative in the event of death) does not
exercise this Option within the time specified herein, this Option shall
terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Option be
exercisable later than the Expiration Date as provided in the Notice. For the
purposes of receiving treatment under this Section 5, “Disability” shall be
defined as an inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason
of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected

shall determine in its sole discretion whether Optionee’s active service
terminated due to death or Disability.

Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors
and assigns of the Optionee.

accordance with the terms of the Notice, the Plan and this Agreement.
8. Adjustment. The number of Shares subject to the Option shall be subject to
adjustment as provided in Article 10 of the Plan.

10. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant, Optionee acknowledges that:
     (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in
nature, and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at
any time;
     (b) the grant of the Option is voluntary and occasional and does not create
any contractual or other right to receive future grants of options, or benefits
in lieu of options, even if options have been granted repeatedly in the past;
     (c) all decisions with respect to future option grants, if any, will be at
the sole discretion of the Company;
     (d) Optionee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;
     (e) Optionee’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to
further employment with the Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of
the Employer to terminate Optionee’s employment or service relationship (if any)
at any time;
     (f) Optionee is voluntarily participating in the Plan;
     (g) the Option and any Shares purchased under the Plan are extraordinary
items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind
rendered to the Employer, the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, and that
are outside the scope of Optionee’s employment or service contract, if any;
     (h) the Option and any Shares purchased under the Plan are not intended to
replace any pension rights or compensation;
     (i) the Option and any Shares purchased under the Plan are not part of
normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not
limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy,
end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or
welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as
compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Employer, the
Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate;
     (j) in the event that Optionee is not a direct employee of Company, the
Option grant will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or
relationship with Company and furthermore, the Option grant will not be
interpreted to form an employment contract with Optionee’s Employer or any
Subsidiary or Affiliate;
     (k) the future value of the Shares underlying the Option is unknown and
cannot be predicted with certainty;
     (l) if the underlying Shares do not increase in value, the Option will have
no value;
     (m) if Optionee exercises the Option and purchases Shares, the value of
such Shares may increase or decrease in value, even below the Exercise Price;
     (n) in consideration of the grant of the Option, no claim or entitlement to
compensation or damages shall arise from termination of the vesting of the
Option or cancellation of the Option following termination of Optionee’s active
service as an Employee or Consultant (for any reason whatsoever and whether or
not in breach of

3

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

 

local labor laws) and Optionee irrevocably releases the Employer, the Company
and any Subsidiary or Affiliate from any such claim that may arise; if,
notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by signing the Notice, Optionee shall be
deemed irrevocably to have waived his or her entitlement to pursue such claim;
     (o) notwithstanding any terms or conditions of the Plan to the contrary, in
the event of voluntary or involuntary termination of Optionee’s active service
as an Employee or Consultant,(i) Optionee’s right to receive Options and vest in
Options under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the Termination
Date, and (ii) Optionee’s right to exercise the Options after termination of
active service as an Employee or Consultant, if any, will be measured by the
Termination Date;
     (p) the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is
the Company making any recommendations regarding Optionee’s participation in the
Plan or Optionee’s purchase or sale of Shares; and
     (q) Optionee is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax,
legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking
any action related to the Plan; and the Option and the benefits under the Plan,
if any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a
merger, take-over or transfer of liability.
11. Responsibility for Taxes.
     (a) Regardless of any action the Company and/or the Employer takes with
respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on
account or other tax-related items arising out of Optionee’s participation in
the Plan and legally applicable to Optionee (“Tax-Related Items”), Optionee
acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and
remains Optionee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by
the Company and/or the Employer. Optionee further acknowledges that the Company
and/or the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the
treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Option
grant, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of the
Option, the subsequent sale of Shares purchased pursuant to such exercise and
the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do not commit and are under no obligation
to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or
eliminate Optionee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular
tax result. Further, if Optionee has become subject to tax in more than one
jurisdiction between the grant date and the date of any relevant taxable event,
Optionee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer,
as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in
more than one jurisdiction.
     (b) Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable,
Optionee shall pay or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the
Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Optionee authorizes
the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their
discretion, to satisfy the Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the
following: (i) withholding from Optionee’s wages or other cash compensation paid
to Optionee by the Company, the Employer and any Subsidiary or Affiliate; or
(ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired at exercise of the
Option either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by
the Company (on Optionee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or
(iii) withholding in Shares to be issued at exercise of the Option.
     (c) To avoid any negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or
account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory
withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for
Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes,
Optionee is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the
exercised Options, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back
solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any
aspect of Optionee’s participation in the Plan.
     (d) Optionee shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of
Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold
or account for as a result of Optionee’s participation in the Plan that cannot
be satisfied by the means previously described in this section. The Company may
refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds from the sale of Shares,
if Optionee fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the
Tax-Related Items as described in this section.

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

 

TO CHANGE. OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION
OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES.
     (a) Exercise of Nonstatutory Stock Option. There may be a regular federal
income tax liability upon the exercise of a nonstatutory stock option. Optionee
will be treated as having received compensation income (taxable at ordinary
income tax rates) equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the
Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price. If Optionee is an
Employee or a former Employee, the Company will be required to withhold for U.S.
federal taxes and FICA from Optionee’s compensation or proceeds from exercise or
otherwise collect these amounts from Optionee.
     (b) Disposition of Shares. In the case of a nonstatutory stock option, if
Shares are held for at least one year, any gain realized on disposition of the
Shares (i.e., the sales price of the Shares less the Fair Market Value of the
Shares at exercise) will be treated as long-term capital gain for federal tax
purposes.
20. Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose
other requirements on the Option and the Shares purchased upon exercise of the
Option, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in
order to comply with local laws or facilitate the administration of the Plan,
and to require Optionee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that
may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.
Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions
or interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions relating to the
Notice, the Plan and this Agreement.

conditions of the Notice, the Plan and this Agreement.
