shareholders in attracting and retaining key employees, directors, advisors and consultants of
outstanding ability for itself and any Parent (as defined in Section 1.2(r)) or Subsidiary (as
defined in Section 1.2(t)) by making it possible to offer them an increased incentive to join or
continue in the service of the Company and/or any Parent or Subsidiary and to increase their
efforts for its welfare by participating in the ownership, long-term growth, profitability and
financial success of the Company.

Company and their respective affiliates and related parties, acquiring or otherwise becoming
entitled to vote more than seventy percent (70%) of the voting power of the shares of Common Stock

1.3 Administration of the Plan.




     Until otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, the Plan shall be administered by the

“Committee”). The Board of Directors may, at any time and from time to time, appoint a special
committee of Directors to serve as the Committee. The Committee, if appointed, shall have at least

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or any successor to the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. Subject to the control of the Board of Directors, and without limiting the control over
decisions described in Section 1.6, the Committee shall have the power to interpret and apply the
Plan and to make regulations for carrying out its purpose. More particularly, the Committee shall
determine which Service Providers shall be granted Options under the Plan, the number of shares
subject to each Option, the price per share under each Option, the Term of each Option, and any
restrictions on the exercise of each Option. When granting Options, the Committee shall designate
the Option as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option; provided, however,
that only Employees may be granted Incentive Stock Options. Determinations by the Committee under
the Plan (including, without limitation, determinations of the person to receive Options, the form,
amount and timing of such Options, and the Terms and provisions of such Options and the Option
Agreements evidencing same) need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively among persons who
receive, or are eligible to receive, Options under the Plan, whether or not such persons are
similarly situated.



1.4 Shares Subject to the Plan.




     The total number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased pursuant to Options under the
Plan shall not exceed two million one hundred thousand (2,100,000) shares. Shares of Common Stock
subject to the Options which terminate or expire prior to exercise shall be available for future
Options. Shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Plan may be either unissued shares of
Common Stock or reacquired shares of Common Stock held in treasury.



1.5 Terms and Conditions of Options.

approve from time to time, subject to the provisions of Article II or Article III of the Plan, as
appropriate, and the following provisions:



3









 





          (a) Exercise and Vesting. All Options granted under the Plan become exercisable at such times
and in such installments (which may be cumulative) as the Committee shall provide in the terms of
each individual Option Agreement. All vested Options and Options that have become exercisable from
time to time may be exercised in whole or in part in accordance with the terms of the applicable
Option Agreement; provided, however, that the Committee shall be authorized to require that any
partial exercise be with respect to a minimum number of shares of Common Stock.




          (b) Forfeiture of Option; Recapture of Gains or Repurchase Rights. If an Optionee ceases to
be a Service Provider, all options shall be forfeited, or be exercised, as follows:




               (i) If an Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider for a reason other than Disability or
death, such Optionee may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in
the Option Agreement in no event later than the expiration of the (Term of the Option as set forth
in the Option Agreement) to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination. In
the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for
three (3) months following the Optionee’s termination. If, on the date of termination, the
Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the shares of Common Stock covered by the
unvested portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does
not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Option Agreement, the Option shall
terminate and the shares of Common Stock covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan. In
addition, the Committee shall be authorized to impose other restrictions as to the forfeiture of
any Option gains, recapture and repayment of such gains, or to require that the Service Provider
sell to the Company any shares of Common Stock that have been purchased at the exercise price paid
for such shares of Common Stock in the event the Service Provider breaches the terms of the
applicable Option Agreement.



               (ii) If an Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the Optionee’s Disability,
the Optionee may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the
Option Agreement to the extent the Option is vested on the date of termination (in no event later
than the expiration of the (Term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the
absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve
(12) months following the Optionee’s termination. If, on the date of termination, the Optionee is
not vested as to his or her entire Option, the shares of Common Stock covered by the unvested
portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does not
exercise his or her Option within the time specified, the Option shall terminate and the shares of
Common Stock covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.



               (iii) If an Optionee dies while a Service Provider, the Option may be exercised within such
period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement (in no event later than the expiration of
the (Term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), by the personal representative,
executor or administrator of the Optionee’s estate or, if none, by the person(s) entitled to
exercise the Option under the Optionee’s will or the laws of descent or distribution, but only to
the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death. In the absence of a specified time in
the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the
Optionee’s death. If, at the time of death, the Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire
Option, the shares of Common Stock covered by the unvested portion of the



4









 







Option shall immediately revert to the Plan. If the Option is not so exercised within the
time specified the Option shall terminate and the shares of Common Stock covered by such Option
shall revert to the Plan.



          (c) Payment. Payment for Common Stock as to which an Option is exercised shall be made in
such manner and at such time or times as shall be provided in the Option Agreement, and may include
payment by cash, Common Stock of the Company which was previously acquired by the Optionee, or any
combination thereof.




          (d) Nontransferability. No Option granted under the Plan shall be transferable other than by
the Optionee’s will or by the laws of descent and distribution. During the lifetime of the
Optionee, an Option shall be exercisable only by the Optionee.




          (e) Additional Provisions. Each Option Agreement may contain such other terms and conditions
not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan as the Committee may deem appropriate from time to
time.




1.6 Stock Adjustments; Mergers.




     Notwithstanding Section 1.4, in the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased
or decreased or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of Common Stock or other
securities of the Company or of any other corporation by reason of any merger, sale of stock,
consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split up, combination of
Common Stock, or stock dividend, the total number of shares of Common Stock set forth in Section
1.4 shall be proportionately and appropriately adjusted by the Committee.



          (a) Company Continues in Existence. If the Company continues in existence, the number and
kind of shares of Common Stock that are subject to any Option and the Option price per share shall
be proportionately and appropriately adjusted without any change in the aggregate price to be paid
therefor upon exercise of the Option.




          (b) Company Does Not Continue. If the Company will not remain in existence or substantially
all of its Common Stock will be purchased by a single purchaser or group of purchasers acting
together, then the Committee may:



(i) declare that all Options shall terminate thirty (30) days after the Committee gives written
notice to all Optionees of their immediate right to exercise all Options then outstanding (without
regard to limitations on exercise otherwise contained in the Options), or



(ii) notify all Optionees that all Options granted under the Plan shall apply with appropriate
adjustments as determined by the Committee to the securities of the successor corporation to which
holders of the numbers of shares of Common Stock subject to such Options would have been entitled,
or



(iii) some combination of aspects of (i) and (ii).



The determination by the Committee as to the terms of any of the foregoing adjustments shall be
conclusive and binding.




5









 








          (c) Fractional Shares. Any fractional shares of Common Stock resulting from any of the
foregoing adjustments under this section shall be disregarded and eliminated.




1.7 Change in Control.




     If a Change in Control occurs in the opinion of the Board of Directors, based on circumstances
known to it, the Board of Directors may declare, or direct the Committee to declare, that all
Options granted under the Plan shall become exercisable immediately, notwithstanding the provisions
of the respective Option Agreements regarding exercisability.



1.8 Notification of Exercise.




     Options shall be exercised by written notice directed to the President of the Company at the
principal executive offices of the Company. Such written notice shall be accompanied by any
payment required pursuant to Section 1.5(c). Exercise by an Optionee’s heir or the representative
of his or her estate shall be accompanied by evidence of his or her authority to so act in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Company.



ARTICLE II

INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS




2.1 Terms of Incentive Stock Options.




     Each Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be exercisable only during a Term
fixed by the Committee; provided, however, that the Term shall end no later than ten (10) years
after the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only
to Employees.



2.2 Limitation on Options.




     The aggregate Fair Market Value of Common Stock (determined at the time the Incentive Stock
Option is granted) subject to Incentive Stock Options granted to an Employee under all plans of the
Employee’s employer corporation and its Parent or Subsidiary corporations and that become
exercisable for the first time by such Employee during any calendar year may not exceed
$100,000.00. To the extent an Incentive Stock Option exceeds this $100,000.00 limit, the portion
of the Option in excess of such limit shall be deemed a Nonqualified Stock Option.



2.3 Continued Employment.




     Whether military, government or other service or other leave of absence shall constitute a
termination of employment shall be determined in each case by the Committee, in its sole
discretion, and any determination by the Committee shall be final and conclusive. A termination of
employment shall not occur where the Optionee transfers between the Company, its Parent, any
Subsidiary or any successor.



2.4 Special Rule for Ten Percent Shareholder.




     If at the time an Incentive Stock Option is granted, an Employee owns stock possessing



6









 







more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of his
or her employer corporation or of its Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, as determined using the
attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code, then the terms of the Incentive Stock Option shall
specify that the option price shall be at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the stock subject
to the Incentive Stock Option and such Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the
expiration of five (5) years from the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted.



2.5 Interpretation.




     In interpreting this Article II of the Plan and the provisions of individual Option
Agreements, the Committee shall be governed by the principles and requirements of Sections 421, 422
and 424 of the Code, and applicable Treasury Regulations.



ARTICLE III

NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS




3.1 Terms and Conditions of Options.




     In addition to the requirements of Section 1.5, Nonqualified Stock Options shall be subject to
the following provisions:



          (a) Term. Each Nonqualified Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be exercisable only
during a Term fixed by the Committee.




          (b) Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1.5(b) and 1.5(c),
the Committee in its sole discretion may provide, either upon the original grant of an Option or in
an amendment of such grant, that an Option may be exercisable during a Term that does not expire
upon the expiration of three (3) months following an Optionee’s termination of employment (one year
in the case of termination as a result of death or Disability), but in no event later than the Term
specified in Section 3.1(a) above.




          (c) Additional Terms. Pursuant to Section 1.5(e), the Committee may add additional terms and
conditions to a Nonqualified Stock Option, including, but not limited to, a cash award for any
federal tax liability suffered by the Optionee upon the grant and/or exercise of a Nonqualified
Stock Option.




3.2 Section 83(b) Election.




     The Company recognizes that certain persons who receive Nonqualified Stock Options may be
subject to restrictions regarding their right to trade Common Stock under applicable securities
laws. Such restrictions may cause Optionee’s exercising such Options not to be taxable under the
provisions of Section 83(c) of the Code. Accordingly, Optionees exercising such Nonqualified Stock
Options may consider making an election to be taxed upon exercise of the Option under Section 83(b)
of the Code, and shall file such election with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days
of exercise of the Option and otherwise in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations.

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS




4.1 Plan Approval.




     The Plan shall be effective upon its adoption by the Board of Directors and shareholders of
the Company.



4.2 Compliance with Other Laws and Regulations.




     The Plan, the grant and exercise of Options pursuant to the Plan, and the obligation of the
Company to sell and deliver shares of Common Stock under such Options, shall be subject to all
applicable federal and state laws, rules, and regulations and to such approvals by any government
or regulatory agency as may be required. No holder of any Option shall have any right to require
the Company to register or qualify any shares of Common Stock subject to any Options under any
federal or state law, rule or regulation.



4.3 Repurchase Obligation or Restrictions on Sale.




     In the sole discretion of the Committee, the Company shall be entitled to repurchase any
Common Stock issued pursuant to an Option in accordance with the terms of the applicable Option
Agreement, or require that an Optionee refrain from the sale of the shares of Common Stock, unless
such sale complies with the terms of the applicable Option Agreement.



4.4 Investment Purpose.




     Unless the Committee chooses to register or qualify Common Stock under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Act”), each Option is granted on the express condition that the purchase of
shares of Common Stock upon an exercise of the Option shall be made for investment purposes only,
and not with a view to resale or further distribution unless such shares, at the time of their
issuance and delivery, are registered under the Act, or, alternatively, at some time following such
issuance, their resale is determined by counsel for the Company to be exempt from the registration
requirements of the Act and of any other applicable law, regulation or ruling. Any shares of
Common Stock so registered shall be promptly listed with each securities exchange through which any
class of the Company’s capital stock or other securities are traded.



4.5 Compliance with the Act.




     With respect to executive officers or Directors that are subject to the Act, all transactions
under this Plan, including the exercise of Options and delivery of shares of Common Stock in
payment of such exercise prior to sale of the Company Stock purchased upon the exercise of such
Options, are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of the Act. The Committee shall be
authorized to monitor all such transactions by such insiders to ensure such compliance, and to the
extent any provision of the Plan or action by the Committee fails to so comply, it shall be deemed
null and void to the full extent permitted by law.

4.6 Amendments.




     The Board of Directors may discontinue the Plan at any time, and may amend it from time to

reduce the Option price for shares of Common Stock which may be purchased pursuant to Options under
Articles II and III of the Plan, (c) extend the period during which Options may be granted, or (d)
change the class of Employees to whom Options may be granted, except as provided in Section 1.6.
Other than as expressly permitted under the Plan, no outstanding Option may be revoked or altered
in a manner unfavorable to the Optionee without the consent of the Optionee.



4.7 No Rights As Shareholder.




     No Optionee shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any share subject to his or
her Option prior to the date of issuance to him or her of a certificate or certificates for such

amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state or local withholding tax liability prior to the
delivery of any certificate or certificates for such Common Stock. Whenever under the Plan
payments are to be made in cash, such payments shall be made net of an amount sufficient to satisfy
any federal, state, or local withholding tax liability.



4.9 Continued Employment Not Presumed.




     The Plan and any document describing the Plan and the grant of any stock Option or right
pursuant to the Plan shall not give any Optionee or other Employee a right to continued employment
by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary or affect the right of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any such person with or without cause.

continue to be governed by and interpreted consistent with the terms of the Plan.
