Exhibit 10.1 

INTERWOVEN, INC.



2008
EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
As Adopted April 17, 2008



     1. PURPOSE. The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentives to attract, retain and
motivate eligible persons whose present and potential contributions are important to the success of
the Company, and any Parents and Subsidiaries that exist now or in the future, by offering them an
opportunity to participate in the Company’s future performance through the grant of Awards.
Capitalized terms not defined elsewhere in the text are defined in Section 27.



     2. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.



          2.1 Number of Shares Available. Subject to Sections 2.5 and 21 and any other
applicable provisions hereof, the total number of Shares reserved and available for grant and
issuance pursuant to this Plan is (i) 2,500,000 Shares plus (ii) any Shares remaining available for
grant under the Company’s 1999 Equity Incentive Plan and its 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Prior
Plans”) and any Shares subject to awards granted under the Prior Plans that are cancelled,
forfeited, settled in cash or that expire by their terms, including Shares subject to awards
granted under the Prior Plans that are outstanding on the Effective Date. The Company may issue
Shares that are authorized but unissued shares pursuant to the Awards granted under the Plan. The
Company will reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Shares to satisfy the requirements
of all outstanding Awards granted under the Plan.




          2.2 Lapsed, Returned Awards. Shares subject to Awards, and Shares issued upon
exercise of Awards, will again be available for grant and issuance in connection with subsequent
Awards under this Plan to the extent such Shares: (i) are subject to issuance upon exercise of an
Option or SAR granted under this Plan but which cease to be subject to the Option or SAR for any
reason other than exercise of the Option or SAR; (ii) are subject to Awards granted under this Plan
that are forfeited or are repurchased by the Company at the original issue price; (iii) are subject
to Awards granted under this Plan that otherwise terminate without such Shares being issued; or
(iv) are surrendered pursuant to an Exchange Program. Shares used to pay the exercise price of an
Award or to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to an Award will become available for
future grant or sale under the Plan. To the extent an Award under the Plan is paid out in cash
rather than Shares, such cash payment will not result in reducing the number of Shares available
for issuance under the Plan.




          2.3 Minimum Share Reserve. At all times the Company shall reserve and keep available
a sufficient number of Shares as shall be required to satisfy the requirements of all outstanding
Awards granted under this Plan and all other outstanding but unvested Awards granted under this
Plan.




          2.4 Limitations. No more than 35,000,000 Shares shall be issued pursuant to the
exercise of ISOs.




          2.5 Adjustment of Shares. If the number of outstanding Shares is changed by a stock
dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination,
reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, without consideration,
then (a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance and future grant under the Plan set forth in
Section 2.1, (b) the Exercise Prices of and number of Shares subject to outstanding Options and
SARs, (c) the number of Shares subject to other outstanding Awards, (d) the maximum number of
shares that may be issued as ISOs set forth in Section 2.4, and (e) the maximum number of Shares
that may be issued to an individual or to a new Employee in any one calendar year set forth in
Section 3, shall be proportionately adjusted, subject to




 









 




any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the Company and in compliance with
applicable securities laws; provided that fractions of a Share will not be issued.




     3. ELIGIBILITY. ISOs may be granted only to Employees. All other Awards may be
granted to Employees, Consultants, Directors and Outside Directors of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary of the Company; provided such Consultants, Directors and Outside Directors
render bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of securities in a
capital-raising transaction. No Participant will be eligible to receive more than 1,000,000 Shares
in any calendar year under this Plan pursuant to the grant of Awards except that new Employees of
the Company or of a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company (including new Employees who are also
officers and directors of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company) are eligible to
receive up to a maximum of 1,500,000 Shares in the calendar year in which they commence their
employment.



     4. ADMINISTRATION.



          4.1 Committee Composition; Authority. This Plan will be administered by the Committee
or by the Board acting as the Committee. Subject to the general purposes, terms and conditions of
this Plan, and to the direction of the Board, the Committee will have full power to implement and
carry out this Plan. The Committee will have the authority to:




               (a) construe and interpret this Plan, any Award Agreement and any other agreement or document
executed pursuant to this Plan;



               (b) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to this Plan or any Award;



               (c) select persons to receive Awards;



               (d) determine the form and terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan,
of any Award granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the
exercise price, the time or times when Awards may be exercised (which may be based on performance
criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or
limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based in each case on such factors
as the Committee will determine;



               (e) determine the number of Shares or other consideration subject to Awards;



               (f) determine the Fair Market Value in good faith, if necessary;



               (g) determine whether Awards will be granted singly, in combination with, in tandem with, in
replacement of, or as alternatives to, other Awards under this Plan or any other incentive or
compensation plan of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company;



               (h) grant waivers of Plan or Award conditions;



               (i) determine the vesting, exercisability and payment of Awards;



               (j) correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan, any
Award or any Award Agreement;



2









 





               (k) determine whether an Award has been earned;



               (l) determine the terms and conditions of any, and to institute any Exchange Program;



               (m) reduce or waive any criteria with respect to Performance Factors;



               (n) adjust Performance Factors to take into account changes in law and accounting or tax rules
as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual
items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships provided that such adjustments are
consistent with the regulations promulgated under Section 162(m) of the Code with respect to
persons whose compensation is subject to Section 162(m) of the Code; and



               (o) make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan.



          4.2 Committee Interpretation and Discretion. Any determination made by the Committee
with respect to any Award shall be made in its sole discretion at the time of grant of the Award
or, unless in contravention of any express term of the Plan or Award, at any later time, and such
determination shall be final and binding on the Company and all persons having an interest in any
Award under the Plan. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of the Plan or any Award Agreement
shall be submitted by the Participant or Company to the Committee for review. The resolution of
such a dispute by the Committee shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant. The
Committee may delegate to one or more executive officers the authority to review and resolve
disputes with respect to Awards held by Participants who are not Insiders, and such resolution
shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant.




          4.3 Section 162(m) of the Code and Section 16 of the Exchange Act. When necessary or
desirable for an Award to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the
Code the Committee shall include at least two persons who are “outside directors” (as defined under
Section 162(m) of the Code) and at least two (or a majority if more than two then serve on the
Committee) such “outside directors” shall approve the grant of such Award and timely determine (as
applicable) the Performance Period and any Performance Factors upon which vesting or settlement of
any portion of such Award is to be subject. When required by Section 162(m) of the Code, prior to
settlement of any such Award at least two (or a majority if more than two then serve on the
Committee) such “outside directors” then serving on the Committee shall determine and certify in
writing the extent to which such Performance Factors have been timely achieved and the extent to
which the Shares subject to such Award have thereby been earned. Awards granted to Insiders must be
approved by two or more “non-employee directors” (as defined in the regulations promulgated under
Section 16 of the Exchange Act).




     5. OPTIONS. The Committee may grant Options to Participants and will determine
whether such Options will be Incentive Stock Options within the meaning of the Code (“ISOs”) or
Nonqualified Stock Options (“NQSOs”), the number of Shares subject to the Option, the Exercise
Price of the Option, the period during which the Option may be exercised, and all other terms and
conditions of the Option, subject to the following:



          5.1 Option Grant. Each Option granted under this Plan will identify the Option as an
ISO or an NQSO. An Option may be, but need not be, awarded upon satisfaction of such Performance
Factors during any Performance Period as are set out in advance in the Participant’s individual
Award Agreement. If the Option is being earned upon the satisfaction of Performance Factors, then
the




3









 







Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period
for each Option; and (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the
performance, if any. Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate
simultaneously with respect to Options that are subject to different performance goals and other
criteria.




          5.2 Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option will be the date on which the
Committee makes the determination to grant such Option, or a specified future date. The Award
Agreement and a copy of this Plan will be delivered to the Participant within a reasonable time
after the granting of the Option.




          5.3 Exercise Period. Options may be exercisable within the times or upon the
conditions as set forth in the Award Agreement governing such Option; provided,
however, that no Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the
date the Option is granted; and provided further that no ISO granted to a person who, at
the time the ISO is granted, directly or by attribution owns more than ten percent (10%) of the
total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary
of the Company (“Ten Percent Stockholder”) will be exercisable after the expiration of five (5)
years from the date the ISO is granted. The Committee also may provide for Options to become
exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise, in such number of Shares
or percentage of Shares as the Committee determines.




          5.4 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an Option will be determined by the
Committee when the Option is granted; provided that: (i) the Exercise Price of an ISO will be not
less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant
and (ii) the Exercise Price of any ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder will not be less than
one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant.
Payment for the Shares purchased may be made in accordance with Section 11. The Exercise Price of
a NQSO may not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the
date of grant.




          5.5 Method of Exercise. Any Option granted hereunder will be exercisable according to
the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Committee
and set forth in the Award Agreement. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. An
Option will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) notice of exercise (in such form as
the Committee may specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and
(ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised (together with
applicable withholding taxes). Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment
authorized by the Committee and permitted by the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon
exercise of an Option will be issued in the name of the Participant. Until the Shares are issued
(as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer
agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder
will exist with respect to the Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company will
issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment
will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the
Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 2.5 of the Plan. Exercising an Option in any
manner will decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and
for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.




          5.6 Termination. The exercise of an Option will be subject to the following (except
as may be otherwise provided in an Award Agreement):




               (a) If the Participant is Terminated for any reason except for the Participant’s death or
Disability, then the Participant may exercise such Participant’s Options only to the



4









 




extent that such Options would have been exercisable by the Participant on the Termination
Date no later than three (3) months after the Termination Date (or such shorter time period or
longer time period not exceeding five (5) years as may be determined by the Committee, with any
exercise beyond three (3) months after the Termination Date deemed to be an NQSO), but in any event
no later than the expiration date of the Options.




               (b) If the Participant is Terminated because of the Participant’s death (or the Participant
dies within three (3) months after a Termination), then the Participant’s Options may be exercised
only to the extent that such Options would have been exercisable by the Participant on the
Termination Date and must be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative, or authorized
assignee, no later than twelve (12) months after the Termination Date (or such shorter time period
or longer time period not exceeding five (5) years as may be determined by the Committee), but in
any event no later than the expiration date of the Options.



               (c) If the Participant is Terminated because of the Participant’s Disability, then the
Participant’s Options may be exercised only to the extent that such Options would have been
exercisable by the Participant on the Termination Date and must be exercised by the Participant (or
the Participant’s legal representative or authorized assignee) no later than twelve (12) months
after the Termination Date (with any exercise beyond (a) three (3) months after the Termination
Date when the Termination is for a Disability that is not a “permanent and total
disability” as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, or (b) twelve (12) months after the
Termination Date when the Termination is for a Disability that is a “permanent and total
disability” as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, deemed to be exercise of an NQSO), but in
any event no later than the expiration date of the Options.



          5.7 Limitations on Exercise. The Committee may specify a minimum number of Shares
that may be purchased on any exercise of an Option, provided that such minimum number will not
prevent any Participant from exercising the Option for the full number of Shares for which it is
then exercisable.




          5.8 Limitations on ISOs. With respect to Awards granted as ISOs, to the extent that
the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which such ISOs are exercisable for
the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any
Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), such Options will be treated
as NQSOs. For purposes of this Section 5.8, ISOs will be taken into account in the order in which
they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of the time the Option
with respect to such Shares is granted. In the event that the Code or the regulations promulgated
thereunder are amended after the Effective Date to provide for a different limit on the Fair Market
Value of Shares permitted to be subject to ISOs, such different limit will be automatically
incorporated herein and will apply to any Options granted after the effective date of such
amendment.




          5.9 Modification, Extension or Renewal. The Committee may modify, extend or renew
outstanding Options and authorize the grant of new Options in substitution therefor, provided that
any such action may not, without the written consent of a Participant, impair any of such
Participant’s rights under any Option previously granted. Any outstanding ISO that is modified,
extended, renewed or otherwise altered will be treated in accordance with Section 424(h) of the
Code. Subject to Section 18 of this Plan, by written notice to affected Participants, the
Committee may reduce the Exercise Price of outstanding Options without the consent of such
Participants; provided, however, that the Exercise Price may not be reduced below
the Fair Market Value on the date the action is taken to reduce the Exercise Price.




5









 





          5.10 No Disqualification. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, no term
of this Plan relating to ISOs will be interpreted, amended or altered, nor will any discretion or
authority granted under this Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify this Plan under Section 422 of
the Code or, without the consent of the Participant affected, to disqualify any ISO under Section
422 of the Code




          5.11 Termination of Participant. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s
Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such Participant’s Termination Date (unless determined otherwise
by the Committee).




     6. RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS.



          6.1 Awards of Restricted Stock. A Restricted Stock Award is an offer by the Company
to sell to a Participant Shares that are subject to restrictions (“Restricted Stock”). The
Committee will determine to whom an offer will be made, the number of Shares the Participant may
purchase, the Purchase Price, the restrictions under which the Shares will be subject and all other
terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Award, subject to the Plan.




          6.2 Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement. All purchases under a Restricted Stock Award
will be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Except as may otherwise be provided in an Award
Agreement, a Participant accepts a Restricted Stock Award by signing and delivering to the Company
an Award Agreement with full payment of the Purchase Price, within thirty (30) days from the date
the Award Agreement was delivered to the Participant. If the Participant does not accept such
Award within thirty (30) days, then the offer of such Restricted Stock Award will terminate, unless
the Committee determines otherwise.




          6.3 Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for a Restricted Stock Award will be
determined by the Committee and may be less than Fair Market Value on the date the Restricted Stock
Award is granted. Payment of the Purchase Price must be made in accordance with Section 11 of the
Plan, and the Award Agreement.




          6.4 Terms of Restricted Stock Awards. Restricted Stock Awards will be subject to such
restrictions as the Committee may impose or are required by law. These restrictions may be based
on completion of a specified number of years of service with the Company or upon completion of
Performance Factors, if any, during any Performance Period as set out in advance in the
Participant’s Award Agreement. Prior to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, the Committee
shall: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the
Restricted Stock Award; (b) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure
performance goals, if any; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the
Participant. Performance Periods may overlap and a Participant may participate simultaneously with
respect to Restricted Stock Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and having
different performance goals and other criteria.




          6.5 Termination of Participant. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award
Agreement, vesting ceases on such Participant’s Termination Date (unless determined otherwise by
the Committee).




     7. STOCK BONUS AWARDS.



          7.1 Awards of Stock Bonuses. A Stock Bonus Award is an award to an eligible person of
Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units) for services to be




6









 







rendered or for past services already rendered to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary.
All Stock Bonus Awards shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement. No payment from the
Participant will be required for Shares awarded pursuant to a Stock Bonus Award.




          7.2 Terms of Stock Bonus Awards. The Committee will determine the number of Shares to
be awarded to the Participant under a Stock Bonus Award and any restrictions thereon. These
restrictions may be based upon completion of a specified number of years of service with the
Company or upon satisfaction of performance goals based on Performance Factors during any
Performance Period as set out in advance in the Participant’s Stock Bonus Agreement. Prior to the
grant of any Stock Bonus Award the Committee shall: (a) determine the nature, length and starting
date of any Performance Period for the Stock Bonus Award; (b) select from among the Performance
Factors to be used to measure performance goals; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be
awarded to the Participant. Performance Periods may overlap and a Participant may participate
simultaneously with respect to Stock Bonus Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods
and different performance goals and other criteria.




          7.3 Form of Payment to Participant. Payment may be made in the form of cash, whole
Shares, or a combination thereof, based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares earned under a Stock
Bonus Award on the date of payment, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee.




          7.4 Termination of Participation. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s
Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such Participant’s Termination Date (unless determined otherwise
by the Committee).




     8. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS.



          8.1 Awards of SARs. A Stock Appreciation Right (“SAR”) is an award to a Participant
that may be settled in cash, or Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock), having a value
equal to (a) the difference between the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise over the Exercise
Price multiplied by (b) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is being settled
(subject to any maximum number of Shares that may be issuable as specified in an Award Agreement).
All SARs shall be made pursuant to an Award Agreement.




          8.2 Terms of SARs. The Committee will determine the terms of each SAR including,
without limitation: (a) the number of Shares subject to the SAR; (b) the Exercise Price and the
time or times during which the SAR may be settled; (c) the consideration to be distributed on
settlement of the SAR; and (d) the effect of the Participant’s Termination on each SAR. The
Exercise Price of the SAR will be determined by the Committee when the SAR is granted, and may not
be less than Fair Market Value. A SAR may be awarded upon satisfaction of Performance Factors, if
any, during any Performance Period as are set out in advance in the Participant’s individual Award
Agreement. If the SAR is being earned upon the satisfaction of Performance Factors, then the
Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for
each SAR; and (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the performance,
if any. Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with
respect to SARs that are subject to different Performance Factors and other criteria.




          8.3 Exercise Period and Expiration Date. A SAR will be exercisable within the times
or upon the occurrence of events determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement
governing such SAR. The SAR Agreement shall set forth the expiration date; provided that no SAR
will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the SAR is granted. The
Committee may also provide for SARs to become exercisable at one time or from time to time,
periodically or




7









 




otherwise (including, without limitation, upon the attainment during a Performance Period of
performance goals based on Performance Factors), in such number of Shares or percentage of the
Shares subject to the SAR as the Committee determines. Except as may be set forth in the
Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such Participant’s Termination Date (unless
determined otherwise by the Committee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rules of Section 5.6
also will apply to SARs.




          8.4 Form of Settlement. Upon exercise of a SAR, a Participant will be entitled to
receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying (i) the difference between
the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price; times (ii) the
number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. At the discretion of the Committee,
the payment from the Company for the SAR exercise may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or
in some combination thereof.




          8.5 Termination of Participation. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s
Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such Participant’s Termination Date (unless determined otherwise
by the Committee).




     9. RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS.



          9.1 Awards of Restricted Stock Units. A Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”) is an award to
a Participant covering a number of Shares that may be settled in cash, or by issuance of those
Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock). All RSUs shall be made pursuant to an Award
Agreement.




          9.2 Terms of RSUs. The Committee will determine the terms of an RSU including,
without limitation: (a) the number of Shares subject to the RSU; (b) the time or times during which
the RSU may be settled; and (c) the consideration to be distributed on settlement, and the effect
of the Participant’s Termination on each RSU. An RSU may be awarded upon satisfaction of such
Performance Factors (if any) during any Performance Period as are set out in advance in the
Participant’s Award Agreement. If the RSU is being earned upon satisfaction of Performance
Factors, then the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any
Performance Period for the RSU; (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure
the performance, if any; and (z) determine the number of Shares deemed subject to the RSU.
Performance Periods may overlap and participants may participate simultaneously with respect to
RSUs that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance goals and other
criteria.




          9.3 Form and Timing of Settlement. Payment of earned RSUs shall be made as soon as
practicable after the date(s) determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. The
Committee, in its sole discretion, may settle earned RSUs in cash, Shares, or a combination of
both.




          9.4 Termination of Participant. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award
Agreement, vesting ceases on such Participant’s Termination Date (unless determined otherwise by
the Committee).




     10. PERFORMANCE SHARES.



          10.1 Awards of Performance Shares. A Performance Share Award is an award to a
Participant denominated in Shares that may be settled in cash, or by issuance of those Shares
(which may consist of Restricted Stock). Grants of Performance Shares shall be made pursuant to an
Award Agreement.




8









 








          10.2 Terms of Performance Shares. The Committee will determine, and each Award
Agreement shall set forth, the terms of each award of Performance Shares including, without
limitation: (a) the number of Shares deemed subject to such Award; (b) the Performance Factors and
Performance Period that shall determine the time and extent to which each award of Performance
Shares shall be settled; (c) the consideration to be distributed on settlement, and the effect of
the Participant’s Termination on each award of Performance Shares. In establishing Performance
Factors and the Performance Period the Committee will: (x) determine the nature, length and
starting date of any Performance Period; (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used;
and (z) determine the number of Shares deemed subject to the award of Performance Shares. Prior to
settlement the Committee shall determine the extent to which Performance Shares have been earned.
Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to
Performance Shares that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance
goals and other criteria.




          10.3 Value, Earning and Timing of Performance Shares. Each Performance Share will
have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. After the
applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Shares will be entitled to
receive a payout of the number of Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance
Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding Performance Factors
or other vesting provisions have been achieved. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may pay
earned Performance Shares in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value
equal to the value of the earned Performance Shares at the close of the applicable Performance
Period) or in a combination thereof.




          10.4 Termination of Participant. Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s
Award Agreement, vesting ceases on such Participant’s Termination Date (unless determined otherwise
by the Committee).




     11. PAYMENT FOR SHARE PURCHASES.



          Payment from a Participant for Shares purchased pursuant to this Plan may be made in cash or
by check or, where expressly approved for the Participant by the Committee and where permitted by
law (and to the extent not otherwise set forth in the applicable Award Agreement):




               (a) by cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the Participant;



               (b) by surrender of shares of the Company held by the Participant that have a Fair Market
Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said
Award will be exercised or settled;



               (c) by waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Participant for services rendered or to be
rendered to the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company;



               (d) by consideration received by the Company pursuant to a broker-assisted and/or same day
sale (or other) cashless exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan;



               (e) by any combination of the foregoing; or



               (f) by any other method of payment as is permitted by applicable law.

     12. GRANTS TO OUTSIDE DIRECTORS.



          12.1 Types of Awards. Outside Directors are eligible to receive any type of Award
offered under this Plan except ISOs. Awards pursuant to this Section 12 may be automatically made
pursuant to policy adopted by the Board, or made from time to time as determined in the discretion
of the Board.




          12.2 Eligibility. Awards pursuant to this Section 12 shall be granted only to Outside
Directors. An Outside Director who is elected or re-elected as a member of the Board will be
eligible to receive an Award under this Section 12.




          12.3 Vesting, Exercisability and Settlement. Except as set forth in Section 21,
Awards shall vest, become exercisable and be settled as determined by the Board. With respect to
Options and SARs, the exercise price granted to Outside Directors shall not be less than the Fair
Market Value of the Shares at the time that such Option or SAR is granted.




     13. WITHHOLDING TAXES.



          13.1 Withholding Generally. Whenever Shares are to be issued in satisfaction of
Awards granted under this Plan, the Company may require the Participant to remit to the Company an
amount sufficient to satisfy applicable federal, state, local and international withholding tax
requirements prior to the delivery of Shares pursuant to exercise or settlement of any Award.
Whenever payments in satisfaction of Awards granted under this Plan are to be made in cash, such
payment will be net of an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable federal, state, local and
international withholding tax requirements.




          13.2 Stock Withholding. The Committee, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such
procedures as it may specify from time to time, may require or permit a Participant to satisfy such
tax withholding obligation, in whole or in part by (without limitation) (i) paying cash,
(ii) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable cash or Shares having a Fair
Market Value equal to the minimum statutory amount required to be withheld, or (iii) delivering to
the Company already-owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum statutory amount
required to be withheld. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered will be
determined as of the date that the taxes are required to be withheld.




     14. TRANSFERABILITY. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, an Award may not
be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by
will or by the laws of descent or distribution. If the Committee makes an Award transferable, such
Award will contain such additional terms and conditions as the Committee deems appropriate. All
Awards shall be exercisable: (i) during the Participant’s lifetime only by (A) the Participant, or
(B) the Participant’s guardian or legal representative; and (ii) after the Participant’s death, by
the legal representative of the Participant’s heirs or legatees



     15. PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP; RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES.



          15.1 Voting and Dividends. No Participant will have any of the rights of a
stockholder with respect to any Shares until the Shares are issued to the Participant. After
Shares are issued to the Participant, the Participant will be a stockholder and have all the rights
of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote and receive all dividends
or other distributions made or paid with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such
Shares are Restricted Stock, then any new, additional or different securities the Participant may
become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by virtue of a stock dividend, stock split
or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of




10









 







the Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock;
provided, further, that the Participant will have no right to retain such stock
dividends or stock distributions with respect to Shares that are repurchased at the Participant’s
Purchase Price or Exercise Price, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 15.2.




          15.2 Restrictions on Shares. At the discretion of the Committee, the Company may
reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) a right to repurchase (a “Right of Repurchase”) a portion
of any or all Unvested Shares held by a Participant following such Participant’s Termination at any
time within ninety (90) days after the later of the Participant’s Termination Date and the date the
Participant purchases Shares under this Plan, for cash and/or cancellation of purchase money
indebtedness, at the Participant’s Purchase Price or Exercise Price, as the case may be.




     16. CERTIFICATES. All certificates for Shares or other securities delivered under
this Plan will be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends and other restrictions as the
Committee may deem necessary or advisable, including restrictions under any applicable federal,
state or foreign securities law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any
stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may be listed or quoted.



     17. ESCROW; PLEDGE OF SHARES. To enforce any restrictions on a Participant’s Shares,
the Committee may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together
with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Committee, appropriately
endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow until
such restrictions have lapsed or terminated, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends
referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificates. Any Participant who is permitted
to execute a promissory note as partial or full consideration for the purchase of Shares under this
Plan will be required to pledge and deposit with the Company all or part of the Shares so purchased
as collateral to secure the payment of the Participant’s obligation to the Company under the
promissory note; provided, however, that the Committee may require or accept other
or additional forms of collateral to secure the payment of such obligation and, in any event, the
Company will have full recourse against the Participant under the promissory note notwithstanding
any pledge of the Participant’s Shares or other collateral. In connection with any pledge of the
Shares, the Participant will be required to execute and deliver a written pledge agreement in such
form as the Committee will from time to time approve. The Shares purchased with the promissory
note may be released from the pledge on a pro rata basis as the promissory note is paid.



     18. REPRICING; EXCHANGE AND BUYOUT OF AWARDS. Except in connection with a (i)
Corporate Transaction or (ii) a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split,
subdivision, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the
Company without consideration, the terms of outstanding awards may not be amended to reduce the
exercise price of outstanding Options or SARs or cancel outstanding Options or SARS in exchange for
cash or other Awards (including Options or SARs) with an exercise price that is less than the
exercise price of the original Option or SAR without prior stockholder approval.



     19. SECURITIES LAW AND OTHER REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. An Award will not be effective
unless such Award is in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws, rules and
regulations of any governmental body, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated
quotation system upon which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, as they are in effect on the
date of grant of the Award and also on the date of exercise or other issuance. Notwithstanding any
other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates
for Shares under this Plan prior to: (a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that
the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and/or (b) completion of any registration or
other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or ruling of any governmental
body that the



11









 




Company determines to be necessary or advisable. The Company will be under no obligation to
register the Shares with the SEC or to effect compliance with the registration, qualification or
listing requirements of any state securities laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system,
and the Company will have no liability for any inability or failure to do so.




     20. NO OBLIGATION TO EMPLOY. Nothing in this Plan or any Award granted under this
Plan will confer or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of,
or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company
or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company to
terminate Participant’s employment or other relationship at any time.



     21. CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.



          21.1 Assumption or Replacement of Awards by Successor. In the event of a Corporate
Transaction any or all outstanding Awards may be assumed or replaced by the successor corporation,
which assumption or replacement shall be binding on all Participants. In the alternative, the
successor corporation may substitute equivalent Awards or provide substantially similar
consideration to Participants as was provided to stockholders (after taking into account the
existing provisions of the Awards). The successor corporation may also issue, in place of
outstanding Shares of the Company held by the Participant, substantially similar shares or other
property subject to repurchase restrictions no less favorable to the Participant. In the event
such successor or acquiring corporation (if any) refuses to assume, convert, replace or substitute
Awards, as provided above, pursuant to a Corporate Transaction, then notwithstanding any other
provision in this Plan to the contrary, such Awards will expire on such transaction at such time
and on such conditions as the Board will determine; the Board (or, the Committee, if so designated
by the Board) may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of such Awards in connection with
a Corporate Transaction. In addition, in the event such successor or acquiring corporation (if
any) refuses to assume, convert, replace or substitute Awards, as provided above, pursuant to a
Corporate Transaction, the Committee will notify the Participant in writing or electronically that
such Award will be exercisable for a period of time determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion, and such Award will terminate upon the expiration of such period. Awards need not be
treated similarly in a Corporate Transaction.




          21.2 Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time to time, also may
substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another company, whether in connection with an
acquisition of such other company or otherwise, by either; (a) granting an Award under this Plan in
substitution of such other company’s award; or (b) assuming such award as if it had been granted
under this Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Award granted under this
Plan. Such substitution or assumption will be permissible if the holder of the substituted or
assumed award would have been eligible to be granted an Award under this Plan if the other company
had applied the rules of this Plan to such grant. In the event the Company assumes an award
granted by another company, the terms and conditions of such award will remain unchanged
(except that the Purchase Price or the Exercise Price, as the case may be, and the number
and nature of Shares issuable upon exercise or settlement of any such Award will be adjusted
appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code).




          21.3 Outside Directors’ Awards. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein,
in the event of a Corporate Transaction, the vesting of all Awards granted to Outside Directors
shall accelerate and such Awards shall become exercisable (as applicable) in full prior to the
consummation of such event at such times and on such conditions as the Committee determines.

Board will not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, amend this Plan in any
manner that requires such stockholder approval; provided further, that a Participant’s
Award shall be governed by the version of this Plan then in effect at the time such Award was
granted.



     25. NONEXCLUSIVITY OF THE PLAN. Neither the adoption of this Plan by the Board, the
submission of this Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval, nor any provision of this
Plan will be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such
additional compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the
granting of stock awards and bonuses otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements may be
either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.
