        1.1.  Purposes of the Plan. The purposes of this Stock Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for
positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentives to Employees, Directors and Consultants and to promote the success of the Company's business. Options granted under the Plan
may be Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options, as determined by the Administrator at the time of grant. Stock Purchase Rights also may be granted under the Plan. 


        1.2.  Adoption and Term. The Plan was approved by the Board and shareholders on February 5, 2001 (the "Effective Date")
and shall remain in effect until terminated as provided in Section 14; provided, however, that no Option or Stock Purchase Right may be granted hereunder after the tenth anniversary of the

        4.     Administration of the Plan. 



        4.1.  Administrator. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the Board. 


        4.2.  Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and, in the case of a Committee, the specific duties
delegated by the Board to such Committee, the Administrator shall have the authority in its discretion: 



        (a)   to
determine the Fair Market Value; 


        (b)   to
select the Service Providers to whom Options and Stock Purchase Rights may from time to time be granted hereunder; 



        (c)   to
determine the number of Shares to be covered by each such award granted hereunder; 


        (d)   to
approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan; 


        (e)   to
determine the terms and conditions, of any Option or Stock Purchase Right granted hereunder, including, but not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when
Options or Stock Purchase
Rights 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 Option or Stock
Purchase Right or the Common Stock relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine; 


        (f)    to
determine the consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment pursuant to Section 8.2; 


        (g)   to
prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established for the purpose
of qualifying for preferred tax treatment under foreign tax laws; and 


        (h)   to
construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and awards granted pursuant to the Plan and to make factual determinations. 




        4.3.  Effect of Administrator's Decision. The Administrator's actions with respect to the Plan need not be uniform and may be
made selectively among Service Providers or Optionees, whether or not similarly situated. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final, conclusive and binding
on all Service Providers and Optionees. No person serving as the Administrator shall be liable for any such action taken or decision made provided such action or decision was made in good faith. 


        4.4   Indemnification. In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as directors or as members of the
Committee, the members of the Board (or the Committee, if applicable) shall be indemnified by the Company against the reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily incurred
in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act
under or in connection with the Plan or any award granted thereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by legal counsel selected by the
Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding except in relation to matters as of which it shall be adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding that
such Board (or Committee, if applicable) member is liable for gross negligence or gross misconduct in the performance of his duties; provided that within thirty days after institution of any such
action, suit or proceeding such 



4







 




Board
(or committee, if applicable) member shall in writing offer the Company the opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same. 




        5.     Eligibility. 



        5.1.  Nonstatutory
Stock Options and Stock Purchase Rights may be granted to Service Providers and Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees all as the
Administrator may determine from time to time in its sole discretion. 



        5.2.  Each
Option shall be designated in the Option Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. In the absence of a designation, Options
granted under the Plan shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory Stock Options. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that Options intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options fail to
qualify as such for any reason (including without limitation as a result of the acceleration of vesting of any Options), such Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options automatically, on
the date on which such Options fail to qualify as Incentive Stock Options without further action by the Administrator. For purposes of this Section 5.2, Incentive Stock Options shall be taken
into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted. 


        5.3.  Neither
the Plan nor any Option or Stock Purchase Right shall confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to continuing the Optionee's relationship as a Service
Provider with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the Company's right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause. 




        6.     Incentive Stock Option Limitation. No Employee may be granted Incentive Stock Options under the Plan (or any other plan of
the Company) which would result in Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value (measured on the date of grant) of more than $100,000 first becoming exercisable in any one calendar year. 


        7.     Term of Option. The term of each Option shall be stated in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that the term shall be
no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten
percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company ("Ten Percent Shareholder"), the term of the Option shall be no more than five (5) years from the date of grant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (but shall not be obligated to), at any time prior to the expiration or termination of any Option, extend the term of any
such Option for such additional period as the Administrator in its sole discretion may determine; provided,  however, that in no event shall the aggregate
option period with respect to any Option, including the initial term of such Option and any extensions
thereof, exceed ten (10) years (or five (5) years in the case of a Ten Percent Shareholder). 


        8.     Option Exercise Price and Consideration. 



        8.1.  The
per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator, provided, however, that
in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant; provided further, however, that the exercise
price of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder shall be no less than 110% of Fair Market Value on the date of grant. 


        8.2.  The
consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator. Such
consideration may consist of (1) cash, (2) check, (3) full recourse promissory note, (4) other Shares which (x) in the case of Shares acquired upon exercise of an
Option, have been owned by the Optionee for 



5







 




more
than six months on the date of surrender, and (y) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which such Option shall be
exercised, (5) consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan, or (6) any combination of the foregoing
methods of payment. In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Administrator shall consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit
the Company. 




        9.     Exercise and Vesting of Options. 



        9.1.  Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder. Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable according to the
terms hereof at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Option Agreement. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Options granted
hereunder shall be tolled during any unpaid leave of absence. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. An Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives:
(i) written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Option Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to
which the Option is exercised, and (iii) execution of such other agreements, including any stockholders or restricted stock agreement as the Administrator may determine. Full payment may
consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Option Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be issued in the
name of the Optionee. 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 shall exist with respect to the Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. 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 12 of the Plan. 


        9.2.  Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider. Unless otherwise provided in an Option Agreement or determined by the
Administrator in its sole discretion, if a Service Provider's employment with or service as a director of or independent contractor, consultant or sales representative to the Company or
any Parent or Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than Cause, Voluntary Resignation, death or Disability of such Service Provider, any Options granted to the Service Provider which have vested
as of the date upon which such termination occurs shall be exercisable for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days after such termination, or, if earlier, the termination of the Option pursuant
to Section 7 above. Upon such termination, the Service Provider's unvested Options shall expire and the Service Provider shall have no further right to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant
to such unvested Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2, the Administrator may provide, in its discretion, that following such date of termination, a Service
Provider may exercise an Option, in whole or in part, at any time subsequent to such termination of employment or service and prior to termination of the Option pursuant to Section 7 above,
either subject to or without regard to any vesting or other limitation on exercise imposed pursuant to the Plan. The determination of when and whether an Optionee has ceased to be a Service Provider
shall be made by the Administrator in its sole discretion and such determination shall be final, conclusive and binding. 


        9.3.  Termination for Cause and Voluntary Resignation. Unless otherwise provided in an Option Agreement or determined by the
Administrator in its sole discretion and notwithstanding any provisions set forth in this Plan, if the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary terminates a Service Provider's employment with or service as
a director of or independent contractor, consultant or sales representative to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary for Cause, or the Service Provider terminates his employment or service by
Voluntary Resignation, all Options granted to such Service Provider pursuant to the Plan shall terminate immediately and such Service Provider shall 



6







 




have
no further right to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.3, the Administrator may provide, in its
discretion, that following such date of termination, a Service Provider may exercise an Option, in whole or in part, at any time subsequent to such termination of employment or service and prior to
termination of the Option pursuant to Section 7 above, either subject to or without regard to any vesting or other limitation on exercise imposed pursuant to the Plan. 


        9.4.  Disability of Service Provider. Unless otherwise provided in an Option Agreement or determined by the Administrator in
its sole discretion, if a Service Provider's employment with or service as a director of or independent contractor, consultant or sales representative to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary is
terminated by reason of a Disability of such Service Provider, then all vested Options exercisable on the date of the termination of the Service Provider's employment or service shall remain
exercisable by the Service Provider at any time within one (1) year after such termination of employment or service, or if earlier, the date specified in the Option Agreement pursuant to
Section 7 above, to exercise such Options in whole or in part. Any unvested portion of the Option shall terminate upon the Service Provider's termination of employment or service with the
Company or any Parent or Subsidiary by reason of a Disability, unless the Administrator shall, in its discretion, provide on a case by case basis that any unvested portion of the Option shall not
terminate upon the Disability of the Service Provider. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.4, the Administrator may provide, in its discretion, that following such date
of termination, a Service Provider may exercise an Option, in whole or in part, at any time subsequent to such termination of employment or service and prior to termination of the Option pursuant to
Section 7 above, either subject to or without regard to any vesting or other limitation on exercise imposed pursuant to the Plan. 



        9.5.  Death of Service Provider. Unless otherwise provided in an Option Agreement or determined by the Administrator in its
sole discretion, if a Service Provider dies while serving as an employee or director of or independent contractor, consultant or sales representative to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, all
vested Options exercisable on the date of the Service Provider's death shall remain exercisable by the executors or administrators or legatees or distributees of such Service Provider's estate at any
time within one (1) year after the date of such Service Provider's death, or if earlier, the date specified in the Option Agreement pursuant to Section 7 above, to exercise such Options
in whole or in part. Any unvested portion of the Option shall terminate upon the Service Provider's death, unless the Administrator shall, in its discretion, provide on a case by case basis that any
unvested portion of the Option shall not terminate upon the Service Provider's death. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.5, the Administrator may provide, in its
discretion, that following such date of termination, a Service Provider may exercise an Option, in whole or in part, at any time subsequent to such termination of employment or service and prior to
termination of the Option pursuant to Section 7 above, either subject to or without regard to any vesting or other limitation on exercise imposed pursuant to the Plan. 



        9.6.  Vesting. Subject to the provisions of this Plan, each Option Agreement shall specify the vesting schedule applicable to
Options. The Administrator may in its discretion (but shall not be obligated to) provide that any vesting requirement or other such limitation on the exercise of an Option may be rescinded, modified
or waived by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time after the date of grant of such Option, so as to accelerate the time at which the Option may be exercised. 


        9.7.  Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined below), the Administrator may, in its sole discretion
(but shall not be obligated to), take any of the following actions on a case by case basis with respect to some or all of the Options issued pursuant to an Option Agreement (i) immediately
prior to the effective date of the transactions giving rise to a 



7







 




Change
in Control, the vesting of some or all of the outstanding Options issued pursuant to an Option Agreement may be accelerated so that each such Option shall become exercisable without regard to
any limitation on exercise imposed pursuant to the Option Agreement or this Plan, (ii) in connection with the transactions giving rise to the Change in Control, cancel some or all of the
outstanding Options issued pursuant to an Option Agreement, to the extent not previously exercised or assumed by the successor corporation or its parent company, and such Options shall thereafter
terminate and cease to be outstanding, provided, however, that each Optionee shall have the right for a reasonable period of time (which shall not be
less than ten (10) days) as the Administrator in its sole discretion shall determine and designate, to exercise any vested Option in whole or in part, and/or (iii) in connection with the
transactions giving rise to the Change in Control, cancel some or all of the outstanding Options issued pursuant to an Option Agreement in exchange for consideration in cash or in kind, which
consideration shall be equal in value to the value of those shares of stock or other securities the Optionee would have received had the Option been exercised (to the extent then exercisable) and no
disposition of the shares acquired upon such exercise been made prior to the Change in Control, less the exercise price therefor, and such Options shall thereafter terminate and cease to be
outstanding. If the Administrator shall elect to cancel the Options under Section 9.7(iii) above, the value of the stock or other securities the Optionee would have received if the
Options had been exercised shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. For purposes of the Plan, a "Change in Control" shall mean (i) a reorganization, merger,
consolidation or other form of corporate transaction or series of transactions, in each case, with respect to which persons who were the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such
reorganization, merger or consolidation or other transaction do not, immediately thereafter, own more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election
of directors of the reorganized, merged or consolidated company's then outstanding voting securities, (ii) the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company, or (iii) any tender offer for or acquisition by any person, or any two or more persons acting as a group, and all affiliates of such person or persons, who prior to such
time owned less than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, of additional voting power in one or more transactions, or series of
transactions, such that following such transaction or transactions, such person or group and affiliates beneficially own fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors. For purposes of the Plan, a "person" shall mean any person, corporation, partnership, joint venture or other entity or any group (as such term is defined for
purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) and "beneficial ownership" shall be determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. 




        10.   Non-Transferability of Options and Stock Purchase Rights. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator in
its sole and absolute discretion, the Options and Stock Purchase Rights 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 and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee. To the extent that the Administrator permits the transfer of an Incentive Stock Option, such
Option will be deemed a Non-Statutory Stock Option. 


        11.   Stock Purchase Rights. 



        11.1. Rights to Purchase. Stock Purchase Rights may be issued either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with Options granted
under the Plan and/or cash awards made outside of the Plan. After the Administrator 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 such person shall be entitled to purchase, the price to be paid, and the time within
which such person must accept such offer. The offer shall be accepted by execution of a Restricted Stock purchase agreement in the form determined by the 



8







 

Administrator.
The Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole
discretion. 


        11.2. Rights as a Stockholder. 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. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend
or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan. 




        12.   Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization; Merger or Asset Sale. 



        12.1. Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of shares of
Common Stock covered by each outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right, and the number of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Options or
Stock Purchase Rights have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Option or Stock Purchase Right, as well as the price per share of Common Stock
covered by each such outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock
split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator, whose determination in that respect shall be final,
binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and
no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option or Stock Purchase Right. 


        12.2. Options to Purchase Shares of Stock of Acquired Companies. After any merger, consolidation or reorganization in which
the Company shall be a surviving corporation, the Administrator may grant substituted options under the provisions of the Plan, pursuant to Section 424 of the Code, replacing old
options granted under a plan of another party to the transaction whose shares or stock subject to the old options may no longer be issued following the transaction. The foregoing adjustments and
manner of application of the foregoing provisions shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. Any such adjustments may provide for the elimination of any fractional shares which
might otherwise become subject to any Options. 


        12.3. Initial Public Offering. As a condition of participation under this Plan, each Optionee shall be obligated to cooperate
with the Company and the underwriters in connection with any public offering of the Company's securities and any transactions relating thereto and shall execute and deliver such agreements and
documents, including without limitation, a lock-up agreement, as may be requested by the Company or the underwriters. The Optionee's obligations under this Section 12.3 shall apply
to any shares of Common Stock issued under the Plan as well as to any and all other securities of the Company or its successor for which such Common Stock may be exchanged or into which such Common
Stock may be converted. 


        12.4. Applicability of Stockholders' Agreement. In the event that the Optionee shall desire to exercise all or any portion of
an Option or Stock Purchase Right prior to the date on which the Company shall have completed an Initial Public Offering, the Optionee shall, as a condition precedent to such Optionee's right to
exercise an Option, execute and deliver a copy of an option/stock purchase right exercise agreement containing such terms and conditions as may be specified by the Administrator from time to time in
its sole and absolute discretion, which may provide, among other things, for restrictions on transfer and voting the shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon exercise of an Option and
provisions governing the management and control of the Company. No certificates evidencing such Common Stock shall be delivered until

the
owner thereof shall have signed such option/stock purchase right agreement. Certificates representing such shares shall be endorsed with appropriate notice of applicability of such option/stock
purchase right agreement. 


        12.5. Change in Status of Subsidiary. Unless otherwise provided in an Option Agreement, in the event that a Subsidiary ceases
to be a Parent or Subsidiary, the Administrator may, in its sole and absolute discretion, (i) provide on a case by case basis that all or some Options or Stock Purchase Rights held by an
Optionee employed by or performing services for such Subsidiary may become immediately exercisable or vested, without regard to any limitation imposed pursuant to this Plan and/or (ii) treat
the employment or service of the Optionee employed by, or providing service to, such Parent or Subsidiary as terminated if such Optionee is not employed by the Company or any Subsidiary immediately
after such event. 




        13.   Time of Granting Options and Stock Purchase Rights. The date of grant of an Option or Stock Purchase Right shall, for all
purposes, be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Option or Stock Purchase Right, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the
determination shall be given to each Service Provider to whom an Option or Stock Purchase Right is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such grant. 


        14.   Amendment and Termination of the Plan. 



        14.1. Amendment and Termination. The Administrator may at any time and for any reason amend, alter, suspend or terminate the
Plan. 


        14.2. Stockholder Approval. The Board shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and
desirable to comply with Applicable Laws. 


        14.3. Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan shall impair the
rights of any Optionee, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Optionee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Optionee and the Company. Termination of the
Plan shall not affect the Administrator's ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Options and Stock Purchase Rights granted under the Plan prior to the date of such
termination. 




        15.   Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. 



        15.1. Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option
and the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. 


        15.2. Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Administrator may require the person
exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such
Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required. 


        15.3. Withholding. The Administrator may make such provisions and take such steps as it may deem necessary or appropriate for
the withholding of any taxes that the Company is required by any law or regulation of any governmental authority, whether federal, state or local, domestic or foreign, to withhold in connection with
the exercise of any Option or Stock Purchase Right, including, but not limited to: (i) the withholding of delivery of shares of Common Stock until the holder reimburses the Company for the
amount the Company is required to withhold with respect to such taxes, (ii) the canceling of any number of shares of Common Stock issuable in an amount sufficient to reimburse the Company for
the amount it is required to so withhold, (iii) withholding the amount due from any such person's wages or compensation due to such person, or (iv) 



10







 




requiring
the Optionee to pay the Company cash in the amount the Company is required to withhold with respect to such taxes. 


        15.4. Registration. At the time of any exercise of any Option, the Company may, if it shall determine it necessary or
desirable for any reason, require the Optionee (or his or her heirs, legatees or legal representative, as the case may be), as a condition to the exercise thereof, to deliver to the Company a written
representation of present intention to purchase the shares for his or her own account as an investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of such shares, except
in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws with respect thereto. In the event such representation is required to be delivered, an appropriate legend may be placed upon each
certificate delivered to the Optionee (or his or her heirs, legatees or legal representative, as the case may be) upon his or her exercise of all or any portion of the Option and a stop transfer order
may be placed with the transfer agent. Each Option shall also be subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Company determines, in the discretion of the Board, that the listing, registration
or qualification of the shares subject to the Option upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or
desirable as a condition of or in connection with, the issuance or purchase of the shares thereunder, the Option may not be exercised in whole or in part unless such listing, registration,
qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company in its sole discretion. The Company shall not be obligated to take any
affirmative action in order to cause the exercisability or vesting of an Option or to cause the exercise of an Option or the issuance of shares pursuant thereto to comply with any law or regulation of
any governmental authority. 




        16.   Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having
jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company's counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the
failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. 


        17.   Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep available such
number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 


        18.   Option Agreement. No person shall have any rights under any Option or Stock Purchase Right granted under the Plan unless
and until the Company and the Optionee to whom such Option or Stock Purchase Right shall have been granted shall have executed and delivered an Option Agreement or Restricted Stock purchase agreement
authorized by the Committee expressly granting the Option or Stock Purchase Right to such person and containing provisions setting forth the terms of the Option or Stock Purchase Right. 


        19.   Options Not Includable for Benefit Purposes. Common Stock received by an Optionee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan
shall not be included in the determination of benefits under any pension, group insurance or other benefit plan applicable to the Optionee which is maintained by the Company, except as may be provided
under the terms of such plans or determined by the Board. 


        20.   Effect of Becoming a Public Company. 



        20.1. Outside Director Committee. In the event that the Company becomes a Public Company, the Board shall appoint the Outside
Director Committee. 


        20.2. Covered Employees. In the event that the Company becomes a Public Company, (i) only the Outside Director
Committee may grant Options or Stock Purchase Rights to any Covered Employee, (ii) the maximum number of shares subject to any Options granted to a Covered Employee during a calendar year shall
not exceed 1,000,000 and (iii) no Option shall be granted to a Covered Employee after the first meeting of shareholders at which directors are elected that

occurs
after the close of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which an Initial Public Offering occurs, or if the Company becomes a Public Company without an initial public offering,
the first calendar year in which the Company becomes a Public Company, unless the Company satisfies the shareholder approval requirement as set forth in Regulation
Section 1.162-27(e)(4)(i) of the Code prior to such grant. 




        21.   Governing Law. All determinations made and actions taken pursuant to the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State
of Delaware and construed in accordance therewith. 


        22.   No Strict Construction. No rule of strict construction shall be implied against the Company, the Administrator, Board,
the Committee, or any other person in the interpretation of any of the terms of the Plan, any Option granted under the Plan or any rule or procedure established by the Administrator. 



        23.   Captions. The captions (i.e., all Section headings) used in the Plan are for convenience only, do not constitute a part
of the Plan, and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or affect in any way any provisions of the Plan, and all provisions of the Plan shall be construed as if no captions have been used in the
Plan. 


        24.   Severability. Whenever possible, each provision in the Plan and every Option at any time granted under the Plan shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of the Plan or any Option and Stock Purchase Right at any time granted under the Plan shall be held
to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, then (a) such provision shall be deemed amended to accomplish the objectives of the provision as originally written to the fullest extent
permitted by law and (b) all other provisions of the Plan and every other Option at any time granted under the Plan shall remain in full force and effect. 


        25.   Disclaimer of Rights. No provision in the Plan or in any Option granted or Option Agreement or other agreement relating
to any Stock Purchase Right entered into pursuant to the Plan shall be construed to confer upon any individual the right to remain an employee or director of or an independent contractor, consultant
or sales representative to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary or to interfere in any way with the right and authority of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary either to increase or decrease the
compensation of any individual, including any holder of the Option or Stock Purchase Right, at any time, or to terminate his employment with or service as a director of or independent contractor,
consultant or sales representative to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary or to terminate any other relationship between any individual and the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary. 


        26.   Non-Exclusivity of Plan. If any provision of the Plan or any Option Agreement shall be determined to be
illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions
shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction. 


        27.   Notices. Any communication or notice required or permitted to be given under the Plan shall be in writing, and mailed by
registered or certified mail or delivered by hand, if to the Company, to its principal place of business and addressed to the attention of the person designated by the Company from time to time as the
Stock Option Administrator, and if to the holder of an Option, to the address as appearing on the records of the Company.
