Section 3.  Shares and Options.

(a)           The Company may grant to Eligible Persons from time to time
Options (including, without limitation, Incentive Stock Options) and Stock
Purchase Rights to purchase an aggregate of up to 550,000 Shares from Shares
held in the Company’s treasury or from authorized and unissued Shares. If any
Option or Stock Purchase Right granted under the Plan terminates, expires, or is
canceled or surrendered as to any Shares, or if Shares are repurchased by the
Company pursuant to repurchase rights associated with a Stock Purchase Right,
new Options or Stock Purchase Rights may thereafter be granted covering such
Shares. An Option granted hereunder shall be either an Incentive Stock Option or
a Nonqualified Stock Option as determined by the Committee at the Date of Grant
of such Option and shall clearly state whether it is an Incentive Stock Option
or a Nonqualified Stock Option. Incentive Stock Options may only be granted to
persons who are Employees.

(b)           The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the Date of Grant
of the Option) of the Shares with respect to which any Incentive Stock Option is
exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year under the
Plan and all such plans of the Company and any parent and subsidiary of the
Company (as defined in Section 424 of the Internal Revenue Code) shall not
exceed $100,000. Each Option will be designated in the option agreement as
either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option. However,
notwithstanding such designations, if the Shares subject to an Optionee’s
Incentive Stock Options (granted under all plans of the Company or any parent or
Subsidiary) which become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year
have a fair market value in excess of $100,000, the Options accounting for this
excess will be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options. For purposes of this
Section 3(b), Incentive Stock Options will be taken into account in the order in
which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares will be
determined as of the time of grant.

(c)           Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may grant
Options to such Eligible Persons as the Committee in its sole discretion
determines are eligible to receive such grants in accordance with Section 4
hereof. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, there shall be no
grant of Options exercisable into in excess of 300,000 Shares to any one
individual in any one year.

Section 4.  Conditions for Grant of Options.

(a)           Each Option shall be evidenced by an option agreement that may
contain any term deemed necessary or desirable by the Committee, provided such
terms are not inconsistent with this Plan or any applicable law. Optionees shall
be those persons selected from Eligible Persons. The Committee shall determine
which Eligible Persons, other than Directors, shall be granted Options from time
to time. The Disinterested Committee shall determine which Directors and which
individuals covered by Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code or Section
16(b) of the Act shall be granted Options from time to time. References to the
Committee throughout the remainder of this Section 4 shall mean the Committee or
the Disinterested Committee, as appropriate. Notwithstanding any provision to
the contrary, an Option shall be void if the Optionee is not an Eligible Person
at the time of the grant.

(b)           In granting Options, the Committee shall take into consideration
the contribution the person has made or may make to the success of the Company
or its Subsidiaries and such other factors as the Board shall determine. The
Committee shall also determine the number of shares subject to each of the
Options and shall authorize and cause the Company to grant Options in accordance
with those determinations. The Committee shall also have the authority to
consult with and receive recommendations from officers and other personnel of
the Company and its Subsidiaries with regard to these matters. The Committee may
from time to time in granting Options under the Plan prescribe such other terms
and conditions concerning such Options as it deems appropriate, including,
without limitation, relating an Option to achievement of specific goals
established by the Committee or the continued employment of the Optionee for a
specified period of time, provided that such terms and conditions are not more
favorable to an Optionee than those expressly permitted herein.

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

 

 

 
(c)           The Committee in its sole discretion may delegate to the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company any or all of its powers under this Plan with
regard to the granting and administration of Options to Eligible Persons,
provided that the Disinterested Committee may not delegate its duties with
respect to granting Options to, or otherwise with respect to Options granted to,
Eligible Persons who are subject to Section 16(b) of the Act or Section 162(m)
of the Internal Revenue Code.

Section 5.  Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share (“Exercise Price”)
shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant and shall not be less
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Date
of Grant.

Section 6.  Exercise of Options.

(a)           Each Option shall specify the period over which vesting shall
occur; provided, however, that:

(i)             subject to Section 9(b) hereof, if the Optionee is an Eligible
Person on the date that a Change in Control occurs, unless such vesting would
subject the Optionee to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal
Revenue Code, all Options held by the Optionee shall become fully vested and
immediately exercisable on the day before the date of such Change in Control;

(ii)            if the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person by reason of the
death or Disability of the Optionee, any Options held by the Optionee shall
become fully vested and immediately exercisable on the date such Optionee ceases
to be an Eligible Person, and the termination provisions of Section 7 hereof
shall apply; and

(iii)           Unless the Committee provides otherwise, vesting of Options
granted to officers and Directors shall be suspended during any unpaid leave of
absence; provided that, for purposes of Incentive Stock Options, any such leave
may not exceed 90 days, unless reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is
guaranteed by contract (including certain Company policies) or statute.

(b)           An Option shall be deemed exercised when (i) the Company has
received written notice of such exercise in accordance with the terms of the
Option, (ii) full payment of the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to
which the Option is exercised has been made, and (iii) arrangements that are
satisfactory to the Committee in its sole discretion have been made for the
Optionee’s payment to the Company of the amount, if any, that the Committee
determines to be necessary for the Company or a Subsidiary to withhold in
accordance with applicable federal or state income or employment tax withholding
requirements.

(c)           The Committee will determine the acceptable form of consideration
for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. Such consideration
may consist partially or entirely of:

(i)             cash;

(ii)            certified or cashier’s check payable to the order of the
Company;

(iii)           a promissory note made by the Optionee in favor of the Company;

(iv)           other Shares (which the Committee may, in its discretion, require
to have been held by the Optionee for a specified period of time) which have a
Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price
of the Shares as to which an Option will be exercised; or

(v)            any other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of
Shares to the extent permitted by applicable laws.

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

 

 

Section 7.  Termination of Option Period.

(a)           Unless otherwise provided herein or in any Option or as determined
by the Committee upon the occurrence of the stated event, the unvested portion
of an Option shall automatically and without notice terminate, and the then
exercisable but unexercised portion of an Option shall automatically and without
notice terminate and become null and void, after the earliest to occur of the
following:

(i)             six (6) months following the death or Disability of the
Optionee;

(ii)            thirty (30) days following the date on which the Optionee ceases
to be an Eligible Person for any reason other than death, Disability, or
termination for Cause; or

(iii)           immediately upon the termination of an Optionee as an Eligible
Person for Cause.

In no event, however, shall the periods described in this Section 7(a) extend
beyond the exercise period stated on the Option or beyond the expiration of ten
(10) years from the Date of Grant, and neither the Board nor the Committee shall
have any authority to amend, modify, revise or extend any exercise period in a
manner that would permit exercise beyond the expiration of ten (10) years from
the Date of Grant.

(b)           In the event of the death of the Optionee, Options held by such
Optionee may be exercised by the Optionee’s legal representative(s), but only to
the extent that such Options would otherwise have been exercisable by the
Optionee.

(c)           For purposes of the Plan, the transfer of an Employee’s employment
between the Company and any Subsidiary or between Subsidiaries shall not be
deemed to be a termination of the Employee’s employment. An authorized leave of
absence shall not be deemed to have terminated the Employee’s employment,
provided that, for purposes of Incentive Stock Options, any such leave may not
exceed 90 days, unless reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is
guaranteed by contract (including certain Company policies) or statute.

Section 8.  Stock Purchase Rights.

(a)           Stock Purchase Rights may be issued either alone, in addition to,
or in tandem with other awards granted under this Plan and/or cash awards made
outside of the Plan. After the Committee determines that it will offer Stock
Purchase Rights under the Plan, it shall advise the offeree in writing or
electronically of the terms, conditions and restrictions related to the offer,
including the number of Shares that the offeree shall be entitled to purchase,
the price to be paid, and the time within which the offeree must accept the
offer. The offer shall be accepted by execution of a Restricted Stock Purchase
Agreement in the form determined by the Committee.

(b)           Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the Restricted Stock
Purchase Agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase option exercisable
within ninety (90) days of the voluntary or involuntary termination of the
purchaser’s service with the Company for any reason (including death or
disability). The purchase price for Shares repurchased pursuant to the
Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement shall be the original price paid by the
purchaser and may be paid by cancellation of any indebtedness of the purchaser
to the Company. The repurchase option shall lapse at such rate as the Committee
may determine.

(c)           The Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement shall contain such other
terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be
determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

(d)           Once the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, the purchaser shall
have rights equivalent to those of a stockholder and shall be a stockholder when
his or her purchase is entered upon the records of the duly authorized transfer
agent of the Company.

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

 

 
 
 
(e)           If any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of
cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock
split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up,
spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of
the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting
the Shares occurs, the Committee may (in its sole discretion), in order to
prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended
to be made available by the grant of an outstanding Stock Purchase Right, adjust
the number and class of Shares covered by such outstanding Stock Purchase Right.

(f)           Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, Stock Purchase
Rights may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or
disposed of in any manner other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, and may be exercised during the lifetime of the recipient, only by
the recipient. If the Committee in its sole discretion makes a Stock Purchase
Right transferable, such Stock Purchase Right may only be transferred (i) by
will, (ii) by the laws of descent and distribution, or (iii) to family members
(within the meaning of Rule 701 under the Securities Act of 1933) through gifts
or domestic relations orders, as permitted by Rule 701 under the Securities Act
of 1933.

Section 9.  Adjustment of Shares.

(a)           If at any time while the Plan is in effect or unexercised Options
are outstanding, there shall be any increase or decrease in the number of issued
and outstanding Shares through any change in the corporate structure of the
Company, including the declaration of a stock dividend or through any
recapitalization resulting in a stock split, reverse stock split,
reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination,
repurchase or exchange of Shares, or an extraordinary dividend or distribution,
then and in such event:

(i)           appropriate adjustment shall be made in the maximum number of
Shares then subject to being optioned under the Plan (as set forth in Section
3(a)), so that the same proportion of the Company’s issued and outstanding
Shares shall continue to be subject to being so optioned;

(ii)          appropriate adjustment shall be made in the maximum number of
Shares issuable to any Eligible Person under Options granted in any one year (as
set forth in Section 3(c)), so that the same proportion of the Company’s issued
and outstanding Shares shall continue to be subject to being so optioned in any
one year; and

(iii)         appropriate adjustment shall be made in the number of Shares and
the Exercise Price thereof then subject to outstanding Options, so that the same
proportion of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares shall remain subject
to purchase at the same aggregate Exercise Price, provided that adjustment will
be made in accordance with applicable law, including Section 424(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code, if applicable.

(b)           Upon the happening of a Change in Control, the Committee may, in
its sole discretion, do one or more of the following: (i) shorten the period
during which Options are exercisable (provided they remain exercisable for at
least thirty (30) days after the date notice of such shortening is given to the
Optionees), (ii) arrange to have the surviving or successor entity or any parent
entity thereof assume the Options or grant replacement options with appropriate
adjustments in the option prices and adjustments in the number and kind of
securities issuable upon exercise or adjustments so that the Options or their
replacements represent the right to purchase the shares of stock, securities or
other property (including cash) as may be issuable or payable as a result of
such transaction with respect to or in exchange for the number of Shares of
Common Stock purchasable and receivable upon exercise of the Options had such
exercise occurred in full prior to such transaction or (iii) cancel Options upon
payment to the Optionees in cash, with respect to each Option to the extent then
exercisable, of an amount that is the equivalent of the excess of the Fair
Market Value of the Common Stock (at the effective time of the merger,
reorganization, sale or other event) over the exercise price of the Option. The
Committee may also provide for one or more of the foregoing alternatives in any
particular option agreement.

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

 
 
 

 
(c)           Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the issuance by the
Company of shares of its capital stock of any class, or securities convertible
into shares of capital stock of any class, either in connection with direct sale
or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon
conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares
or other securities, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall
be made with respect to the number of Shares reserved for issuance under the
Plan or the number of or exercise price of Shares then subject to outstanding
Options granted under the Plan.

(d)           Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the existence of
outstanding Options granted under the Plan shall not affect in any manner the
right or power of the Company to make, authorize or consummate (i) any or all
adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the
Company’s capital structure or its business; (ii) any merger or consolidation of
the Company; (iii) any issue by the Company of debt securities, or preferred or
preference stock that would rank above the Shares subject to outstanding
Options; (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; (v) any sale,
transfer or assignment of all or any part of the assets or business of the
Company; or (vi) any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar
character or otherwise.

Section 10.  Transferability of Options. Each Incentive Stock Option shall
provide that such Incentive Stock Option shall not be transferable by the
Optionee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and that
so long as an Optionee lives, only such Optionee or his guardian or legal
representative shall have the right to exercise such Incentive Stock Option. The
Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide in the agreement governing any
Nonqualified Stock Option that such Nonqualified Stock Option shall be
transferable to the Optionee’s spouse or children, to a trust solely for the
benefit of the transferor, his spouse, or children, or pursuant to the terms of
a qualified domestic relation order (as defined in Section 414(p)(1)(A) of the
Internal Revenue Code).

Section 11.  Issuance of Shares. No person shall be, or have any of the rights
or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any of the Shares
subject to an Option unless and until certificates representing such Shares
shall have been issued and delivered to such person. As a condition of any
transfer of the certificate for Shares, the Committee may obtain such agreements
or undertakings, if any, as it may deem necessary or advisable to assure
compliance with any provision of the Plan, the agreement evidencing the Option
or any law or regulation including, but not limited to, the following:

(a)           A representation, warranty or agreement by the Optionee to the
Company at the time any Option is exercised that he or she is acquiring the
Shares to be issued to him or her for investment and not with a view to, or for
sale in connection with, the distribution of any such Shares; and

(b)           A representation, warranty or agreement to be bound by any legends
that are, in the opinion of the Committee, necessary or appropriate to comply
with the provisions of any securities laws deemed by the Committee to be
applicable to the issuance of the Shares and are endorsed upon the Share
certificates.

Section 12.  Options for 10% Stockholder. Notwithstanding any other provisions
of the Plan to the contrary, an Incentive Stock Option shall not be granted to
any person owning directly (or indirectly through attribution under Section
424(d) of the Internal Revenue Code) at the Date of Grant, stock possessing more
than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the
Company (or of its parent or subsidiary (as defined in Section 424 of the
Internal Revenue Code) at the Date of Grant) unless the exercise price of such
Incentive Stock Option is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares
subject to such Incentive Stock Option on the Date of Grant, and the period
during which the Incentive Stock Option may be exercised does not exceed five
(5) years from the Date of Grant.

Section 13.  Nonqualified Stock Options. Nonqualified Stock Options may be
granted hereunder and shall be subject to all terms and provisions hereof except
that each such Nonqualified Stock Option (i) must be clearly designated as a
Nonqualified Stock Option; (ii) may be granted for Shares in excess of the
limits contained in Section 3(b) hereof; and (iii) shall not be subject to
Section 12 hereof. If both Incentive Stock Options and Nonqualified Stock
Options are granted to an Optionee, the right to exercise, to the full extent
thereof, Options of either type shall not be contingent in whole or in part upon
the exercise of, or failure to exercise, Options of the other type.

Section 14.  Administration of the Plan.

(a)           The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of
the Board or other committee thereof as appointed by the Board (the
“Committee”); provided that the Board may also act as the Committee at any time
or from time to time. In addition, if the Committee does not consist entirely of
Outside Directors, a “Disinterested Committee” shall be appointed by the Board
and shall be composed entirely of Outside Directors. In the event the Committee
consists entirely of Outside Directors, the Committee shall also serve as the
“Disinterested Committee” hereunder. The Disinterested Committee shall
administer the Plan with respect to all Eligible Persons who are “covered
employees” under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) or are subject to Rule
16b-3, and all members of the Board who participate in the Plan, if any. The
number of persons that shall constitute the Committee and the Disinterested
Committee shall be determined from time to time by a majority of all the members
of the Board and, unless that majority of the Board determines otherwise or Rule
16b-3 is amended to require otherwise, shall be no less than two persons. To the
extent that Rule 16b-3 requires a system of administration that is different
from this Section 14, this Section 14 shall automatically be deemed amended to
the extent necessary to cause it to be in compliance with Rule 16b-3.

(b)           The Committee, from time to time, may adopt rules and regulations
for carrying out the purposes of the Plan. The determinations and the
interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan by the Committee
shall be final and conclusive.

on the third Business Day after it is deposited in the United States mail,
certified or registered, postage prepaid, addressed to the person who is to
