providing certain Employees and Consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries
who have substantial responsibility for its management and growth with a
significant additional incentive to promote the financial success of the Company
and (ii) to provide an incentive which may be used to induce able persons to
enter into, or remain in, the service of the Company, its divisions or
Subsidiaries.

ARTICLE II.

 

DEFINITIONS

For purposes of this Incentive Plan, the following terms shall have the meanings
set forth below:

“Adjusted Aggregate Plan Amount” means an amount equal to the Aggregate Plan
Amount minus the aggregate of all amounts distributable or otherwise payable as
proceeds in a Liquidation (after deduction for the Adjusted Aggregate Plan
Amount payable under this Incentive Plan) to individuals who are either (i)
Employees as of the date immediately prior to the effective time of such
Liquidation or (ii) Consultants as of the date immediately prior to the
effective time of such Liquidation who are Participants under this Incentive
Plan, with respect to (A) all shares of Common Stock held by them, directly or
indirectly (including without limitation shares held by their respective family
members or in trust for their benefit or for the benefit of any of their
respective family members), measured as of the effective time of a Liquidation,
which are not subject to repurchase by the Company in the event of such Employee
or

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

Consultant’s termination of employment from the Company or its Subsidiaries
(including all shares of Common Stock for which the Employee or Consultant
receives Liquidation Consideration proceeds which are not subject to forfeiture
to the Company or any successor entity (other than as a result of any escrow,
earn-out or similar arrangement as provided for in Section 5.3 below) and all
shares of Common Stock for which the repurchase right lapses as a result of the
Liquidation), (B) vested options, warrants or other rights to acquire Common
Stock held by them, directly or indirectly (including without limitation vested
options, warrants or other rights held by their respective family members or in
trust for their benefit or for the benefit of any of their respective family
members), measured as of the effective time of a Liquidation (including such
options, warrants or other rights which become vested as a result of the
Liquidation), and (C) all vested Common Stock, options, warrants and other
rights held by the direct or indirect transferees of such Employees and
Consultants (including the Persons listed in (A) and (B) above) (the amounts
distributable or otherwise payable or deemed to be payable to Employees and
Consultants pursuant to (A), (B) and (C) above shall be referred to herein as
the “Aggregate Employee Value”). For purposes of determining the Aggregate
Employee Value, shares of Common Stock that are not subject to repurchase by the
Company and options, warrants or other rights to acquire Common Stock that have
vested shall include without limitation Common Stock and options, warrants or
other rights to acquire Common Stock that are subject to (i) acceleration of
vesting on such Liquidation, or (ii) acceleration of vesting on termination of
employment or consultant relationship if such termination occurs at or prior to
the effective time of such Liquidation. With respect to warrants, options or
other rights to acquire Common Stock, the “amounts distributable or otherwise
payable as proceeds in such Liquidation” shall be equal to the amounts
distributable or otherwise payable in such Liquidation with respect to the
shares of Common Stock underlying such vested options, warrants or other rights
to acquire Common Stock, including the fair market value (determined in
accordance with Article IV, Section (B)2(c)(ii) of the Certificate) of any
options or other securities issued in exchange for such vested options, warrants
or other rights in such Liquidation, minus the aggregate exercise or purchase
price thereof that has not been paid as of the effective time of Liquidation.
The Aggregate Employee Value and the “amounts distributable or otherwise payable
as proceeds in a Liquidation” to the Persons in (A), (B) and (C) above shall
take into account the reduction of the amount of Liquidation Consideration as a
result of amounts payable under this Incentive Plan. Since the determination of
the Aggregate Employee Value is dependent on the amounts payable under this
Incentive Plan and the Adjusted Aggregate Plan Amount is dependent on the
Aggregate Employee Value, the calculation of each shall be made by iterating
each dependent formula until each is solved without requiring further iteration.
If the Aggregate Employee Value is equal to or greater than the Aggregate Plan
Amount then the Adjusted Aggregate Plan Amount shall be equal to $0 and there
shall be no distributions to Participants under this Incentive Plan.

“Aggregate Plan Amount” means an amount equal to the product of (A) the
Liquidation Consideration, multiplied by (B) the Liquidation Percentage (as
defined below).

“Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company.

“Certificate” means the Company’s Seventh Amended and Restated Certificate of

ARTICLE IV.

PARTICIPATION

ARTICLE V.

 

GRANTS OF PARTICIPANT SHARES

5.1        Power to Grant Participant Shares. The Committee shall have the right
and the power to grant Participant Shares (expressed as a percentage) at any
time to any eligible person, but in no event shall the aggregate number of
Participant Shares granted to all Participants exceed 100.00% of the Adjusted
Aggregate Plan Amount; provided, however, if a Participant forfeits his or her
Participant Shares prior to a Liquidation as set forth in Section 6.2 below, the
forfeited Participant Shares shall be available for future grant by the
Committee. Participant Shares shall not entitle the holders thereof to any
rights in, or to own any, shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the
Company, including without limitation any voting rights. The date on which any
Participant Share is granted to any Participant shall be the “Grant Date” with
respect to such Participant Share.

5.2        Payment of Adjusted Aggregate Plan Amount upon Liquidation. Subject
to Sections 5.3 and 6.3, upon a Liquidation of the Company in which any
Liquidation Consideration is distributable or payable to the holders of capital
stock, options, warrants and other rights to purchase capital stock of the
Company, the Company shall pay to the Participants who hold Participant Shares
the amounts, in cash, represented by such Participant Shares, in an aggregate
amount not to exceed the Adjusted Aggregate Plan Amount; provided that no such
payments shall be made to any Participants prior to the payment in full of all
amounts payable to holders of Series C-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to Article IV,
Section (B)2(a)(i) of the Certificate as a result of the Liquidation. Upon
payment of all such amounts to such Participants, such Participants shall have
no right to further payment under this Incentive Plan. In the event that some or
all of the Liquidation Consideration is in a form other than cash, the Company
shall make good faith efforts to enable the amounts to be paid by the Company to
the Participants hereunder to be paid in the form of cash; provided that in no
event shall the inability of the Company to pay the amounts due to the
Participants under this Incentive Plan in cash or any other obligation of the
Company pursuant to this Incentive Plan limit the Company’s ability to
consummate a Liquidation transaction.

5.3        Escrow and Other Contingent Amounts. In the event the proceeds of a
Liquidation are subject to any escrow, earn-out or similar arrangements pursuant
to the terms and conditions of the transaction agreements relating to the
Liquidation, a proportional amount of such escrow, earn-out or similar
arrangements shall be payable to the Participants (pro rata

 

-6-

 
 
 
 

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

 

 

 

according to their Participant Shares) at the same time that the amounts payable
under such escrow, earn-out or similar arrangements are determined and paid to
stockholders of the Company pursuant to such transaction agreements. Such
proportional amounts shall not be earned by and paid to Participants except to
the extent the Company’s stockholders become under the terms and conditions of
the Liquidation entitled to receive payments related to such escrow, earn-out or
similar arrangements. In no event shall the aggregate of all payments under this
Incentive Plan exceed the amount which the Adjusted Aggregate Plan Amount would
have been had all such contingent payments been determined and received as of
the initial closing of the transactions relating to the Liquidation.

5.4        Public Offering. In the event of a Public Offering, this Incentive
Plan shall terminate in its entirety and no Participant shall have any right
thereafter to receive any payment or other amount under this Incentive Plan
(except for any amounts payable under Section 5.3 with respect to Liquidations
consummated prior to the Public Offering).

5.5        Determination of Amounts. In connection with any Liquidation, the
Liquidation Consideration, Aggregate Plan Amount, Aggregate Employee Value,
Adjusted Aggregate Plan Amount and all other calculations required under this
Incentive Plan, including without limitation, the value of any non-cash
consideration payable to Participants under this Incentive Plan, shall be
determined in good faith by the Committee, whose determination shall be final
and binding on all Participants.

5.6        Examples. The examples set forth on Exhibit A illustrate calculation
of the Adjusted Aggregate Plan Amount and an individual Participant’s
Participant Share and are intended to clarify the Company’s intent with regard
to definitions and provisions of this Plan. The assumptions set forth on Exhibit
A are for purposes of these examples only and are not intended as a
representation, estimate, prediction or guarantee of future outcomes.

Participant shall be embodied in a written agreement (a “Participant Share
Agreement”) which shall be signed by the Participant and by the Chief Executive

shall contain provisions setting forth the terms and conditions of such
Participant Share and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this

as part of an employment or consulting agreement among the Participant, the
Company and, if applicable, one or more of the Company’s Subsidiaries.

6.2        Limitations on Transferability; Termination. Participant Shares held
by a Participant may not be transferred by such Participant. Participant Shares
shall terminate upon the termination of the employment of such Participant by

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

 

 

 

cause or the death of such Participant) or the termination of the consulting
relationship between the Company and its Subsidiaries and such Participant for
any reason, as applicable; except that Participant Shares shall not terminate
upon the termination of employment or consulting relationship (except for a
termination for cause or due to the death of such Participant) if such
termination occurs at or after the time of the Liquidation.

6.3        Withholding; Offset. The Company shall be entitled, if the Committee
deems it necessary or desirable, to withhold from any Participant (or secure
payment from the Participant in lieu of withholding) the amount of any
withholding or other tax due with respect to any payment due with respect to any
Participant Share and to offset against any payments due with respect to a
Participant’s Participant Share any payments owed by the Participant to the
Company.

6.4        Rights of Participants. Nothing in this Incentive Plan shall
interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or its Subsidiaries
to terminate any Participant’s employment or consulting relationship at any time
(with or without cause), nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue
in the employ or service of the Company or its Subsidiaries for any period of
time or to continue his present (or any other) rate of compensation. No Employee
or Consultant shall have a right to be selected as a Participant under this
Incentive Plan or, having been so selected, to be selected again as a
Participant under this Incentive Plan.

6.5        Amendment, Suspension and Termination of this Plan. The Committee may
suspend, terminate, amend or modify this Incentive Plan: (a) prior to the grant
of any Participant Shares under this Incentive Plan, with the written consent of

options, warrants and other rights to acquire Common Stock held by Employees and
Consultants, and (b) after the grant of any Participant Shares under this
Incentive Plan, with the written consent of Participants holding at least a
majority of the Participant Shares granted under this Incentive Plan. No
Participant Shares shall be granted hereunder after the tenth anniversary of the
adoption of this Incentive Plan.

6.6        Amendment and Modification of Participant Shares. The Committee may
not amend or modify the terms of any outstanding Participant Share Agreement
unless the Committee has obtained the prior written consent of the Participant
that is a party to such Participant Share Agreement; provided however, if such
amendment or modification does not materially and adversely affect the
Participant or if such amendment or modification does materially and adversely
affect the Participant but not in a manner different than other Participants,
then the Committee may amend or modify the terms of all outstanding Participant
Share Agreements so affected upon the prior written consent of Participants
holding at least a majority of the Participant Shares represented by such
Participant Share Agreements that are so affected.

as they may have as members of the Committee, the members of the Committee shall
be indemnified by the Company and its Subsidiaries against all costs and

taken or failure to act under or in connection with this Incentive Plan or any

Participant Share granted or Participant Share Agreement entered into hereunder,
and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such
settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the Company) or
paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit or
proceeding; provided that any such Committee member shall be entitled to the
indemnification rights set forth in this Section 6.7 only if such member has
acted in good faith and in a manner that such member reasonably believed to be
in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that such
conduct was unlawful; further provided that it shall be assumed that such
Committee member has acted in good faith and in or not opposed to the best
interests of the Company and lawfully, as applicable, unless the Company
otherwise demonstrates; and further provided that upon the institution of any
such action, suit or proceeding a Committee member shall give the Company
written notice thereof and an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and
defend the same before such Committee member undertakes to handle and defend it
on his own behalf

Incentive Plan shall be governed by and interpreted, construed and enforced in
