    As used in the Plan, the following definitions shall apply to
    the capitalized terms indicated below:



 



    (a) “Affiliate” means (i) any
    corporation (other than the Company) in an unbroken chain of
    corporations ending with the Company, provided each corporation
    in the unbroken chain (other than the Company) owns, at the time
    of the determination, stock possessing fifty percent (50%) or
    more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock
    in one of the other corporations in such chain, and
    (ii) any corporation (other than the Company) in an
    unbroken chain of corporations beginning with the Company,
    provided each corporation (other than the last corporation) in
    the unbroken chain owns, at the time of the determination, stock
    possessing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined
    voting power of all classes of stock in one of the other
    corporations in such chain. The Board shall have the authority
    to determine (i) the time or times at which the ownership
    tests are applied, and (ii) whether “Affiliate”
    includes entities other than corporations within the foregoing
    definition.



 



    (b) “Board” means the Board of Directors
    of the Company.



 



    (c) “Capitalization Adjustment” has the
    meaning ascribed to that term in Section 10(a).

    occurrence, in a single transaction or in a series of related
    transactions, of any one or more of the following events:



 



    (i) any Exchange Act Person becomes the Owner, directly or
    indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than
    fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the
    Company’s then outstanding securities other than by virtue
    of a merger, consolidation or similar transaction.
    Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be
    deemed to occur (A) on account of the acquisition of
    securities of the Company by an investor, any affiliate thereof
    or any other Exchange Act Person from the Company in a
    transaction or series of related transactions the primary
    purpose of which is to obtain financing for the Company through
    the issuance of equity securities or (B) solely because the
    level of Ownership held by any Exchange Act Person (the
    “Subject Person”) exceeds the designated
    percentage threshold of the outstanding voting securities as a
    result of a repurchase or other acquisition of voting securities
    by the Company reducing the number of shares outstanding,
    provided that if a Change in Control would occur (but for the
    operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of
    voting securities by the Company, and after such share
    acquisition, the Subject Person becomes the Owner of any
    additional voting securities that, assuming the repurchase or
    other acquisition had not occurred, increases the percentage of
    the then outstanding voting securities Owned by the Subject
    Person over the designated percentage threshold, then a Change
    in Control shall be deemed to occur;





    

    1








 







    (ii) there is consummated a merger, consolidation or
    similar transaction involving (directly or indirectly) the
    Company and, immediately after the consummation of such merger,
    consolidation or similar transaction, the stockholders of the
    Company immediately prior thereto do not Own, directly or
    indirectly, either (A) outstanding voting securities
    representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined
    outstanding voting power of the surviving Entity in such merger,
    consolidation or similar transaction or (B) more than fifty
    percent (50%) of the combined outstanding voting power of the
    parent of the surviving Entity in such merger, consolidation or
    similar transaction, in each case in substantially the same
    proportions as their Ownership of the outstanding voting
    securities of the Company immediately prior to such transaction;



 



    (iii) the stockholders of the Company approve or the Board
    approves a plan of complete dissolution or liquidation of the
    Company, or a complete dissolution or liquidation of the Company
    shall otherwise occur;



 



    (iv) there is consummated a sale, lease, exclusive license
    or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
    consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, other
    than a sale, lease, license or other disposition of all or
    substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and
    its Subsidiaries to an Entity, more than fifty percent (50%) of
    the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are
    Owned by stockholders of the Company in substantially the same
    proportions as their Ownership of the outstanding voting
    securities of the Company immediately prior to such sale, lease,
    license or other disposition; or



 



    (v) individuals who, on the date this Plan is adopted by
    the Board, are members of the Board (the “Incumbent
    Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least
    a majority of the members of the Board; provided, however,
    that if the appointment or election (or nomination for
    election) of any new Board member was approved or recommended by
    a majority vote of the members of the Incumbent Board then still
    in office, such new member shall, for purposes of this Plan, be
    considered as a member of the Incumbent Board.



 



    The term Change in Control shall not include a sale of assets,
    merger or other transaction effected exclusively for the purpose
    of changing the domicile of the Company.



 



    Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this
    Plan, the definition of Change in Control (or any analogous
    term) in an individual written agreement between the Company or
    any Affiliate and the Participant shall supersede the foregoing
    definition with respect to Stock Awards subject to such
    agreement; provided, however, that if no definition of
    Change in Control or any analogous term is set forth in such an
    individual written agreement, the foregoing definition shall
    apply.



 



    (e) “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code
    of 1986, as amended.

    such services. However, service solely as a Director, or payment

    considered a “Consultant” for purposes of the Plan.



 



    (j) “Continuous Service” means that the
    Participant’s service with the Company or an Affiliate,
    whether as an Employee, Director or Consultant, is not
    interrupted or terminated. A change in the capacity in which the

    Employee, Consultant or Director or a change in the entity for
    which the Participant renders such service, provided that there
    is no interruption or termination of the Participant’s
    service with the Company or an Affiliate, shall not terminate a
    Participant’s Continuous Service;






    

    2








 







    provided, however, if the corporation for which a
    Participant is rendering service ceases to qualify as an
    Affiliate, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion,
    such Participant’s Continuous Service shall be considered
    to have terminated on the date such corporation ceases to
    qualify as an Affiliate. For example, a change in status from an
    employee of the Company to a consultant of an Affiliate or to a
    Director shall not constitute an interruption of Continuous
    Service. To the extent permitted by law, the Board or the chief
    executive officer of the Company, in that party’s sole
    discretion, may determine whether Continuous Service shall be
    considered interrupted in the case of any leave of absence
    approved by that party, including sick leave, military leave or
    any other personal leave. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a leave
    of absence shall be treated as Continuous Service for purposes
    of vesting in a Stock Award only to such extent as may be
    provided in the Company’s leave of absence policy or in the
    written terms of the Participant’s leave of absence.

    outstanding securities of the Company;



 



    (iii) the consummation of a merger, consolidation or
    similar transaction following which the Company is not the
    surviving corporation; or



 



    (iv) the consummation of a merger, consolidation or similar
    transaction following which the Company is the surviving
    corporation but the shares of Common Stock outstanding
    immediately preceding the merger, consolidation or similar

    the Plan; (2) the cancellation of any outstanding Option
    under the Plan and the grant in substitution therefor of
    (a) a new Option under the Plan or another equity plan of
    the Company covering the same or a different number of shares of
    Common Stock, (b) a Stock Purchase Award, (c) a Stock
    Bonus Award, (d) a Stock Appreciation Right, (e) a
    Stock Unit Award, (f) an Other Stock Award, (g) cash,
    and/or
    (h) other valuable consideration (as determined by the
    Board, in its sole discretion); or (3) any other action
    that is treated as a repricing under generally accepted
    accounting principles.



 



    (vi) To amend the Plan or a Stock Award as provided in
    Section 11.



 



    (vii) To terminate or suspend the Plan as provided in
    Section 12.



 



    (viii) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform
    such acts as the Board deems necessary or appropriate to promote
    the best interests of the Company which are not in conflict with
    the provisions of the Plan.



 



    (ix) To adopt such procedures and
    sub-plans as
    are necessary or appropriate to permit participation in the Plan
    by Employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside the
    United States.



 



    (c) Delegation to Committee.



 



    (i) General.  The Board may delegate some
    or all of the administration of the Plan to a Committee or
    Committees. If administration is delegated to a Committee, the
    Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of
    the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board that
    have been delegated to the Committee, including the power to
    delegate to a subcommittee any of the administrative powers the
    Committee is authorized to exercise (and references in this Plan
    to the Board shall thereafter be to the Committee or
    subcommittee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not
    inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted
    from time to time by the Board. The Board may retain the
    authority to concurrently administer the Plan with the Committee
    and may, at any time, revest in the Board some or all of the
    powers previously delegated.



 



    (ii) Section 162(m) and
    Rule 16b-3
    Compliance.  In the sole discretion of the Board,
    the Committee may consist solely of two (2) or more Outside
    Directors, in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code,
    and/or
    solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors, in accordance with
    Rule 16b-3.
    In addition, the Board or the Committee, in its sole discretion,
    may (1) delegate to a committee of one or more members of
    the Board who need not be Outside Directors the authority to
    grant Stock Awards to eligible persons who are either
    (a) not then Covered Employees and are not expected to be
    Covered Employees at the time of recognition of income resulting
    from such Stock Award, or (b) not persons with respect to
    whom the Company wishes to comply with Section 162(m) of
    the Code,
    and/or
    (2) delegate to a committee of one or more members of the
    Board who need not be Non-Employee Directors the authority to
    grant Stock Awards to eligible persons who are not then subject
    to Section 16 of the Exchange Act.



 



    (d) Delegation to an Officer.  The Board
    may delegate to one or more Officers of the Company the
    authority to do one or both of the following (i) designate
    Officers and Employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
    to be recipients of Stock Awards and the terms thereof, and
    (ii) determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be
    subject to such Stock Awards granted to such Officers and
    Employees; provided, however, that the Board resolutions
    regarding such delegation shall specify the total number of
    shares of Common Stock that may be subject to the Stock Awards
    granted by such Officer and that such Officer may not grant a
    Stock Award to himself or herself. Notwithstanding anything to
    the contrary in this Section 3(d), the Board may not
    delegate to an Officer authority to determine the Fair Market
    Value of the Common Stock pursuant to Section 2(s)(ii)
    above.





    

    7








 







    (e) Effect of Board’s Decision.  All
    determinations, interpretations and constructions made by the
    Board in good faith shall not be subject to review by any person
    and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons.



 


		
	
    4.  
	
    Shares Subject
    to the Plan.




 



    (a) Share Reserve.  Subject to the
    provisions of Section 10(a) relating to Capitalization
    Adjustments, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be
    issued pursuant to Stock Awards shall not exceed, in the
    aggregate, fifteen million seven hundred forty-seven eight
    hundred and forty-seven (15,747,847) shares of Common Stock,
    which number includes any shares of Common Stock that
    (i) are issuable pursuant to stock awards outstanding under
    the Company’s Prior Plans as of the effective date of the
    Plan (as set forth in Section 13), and (ii) but for
    the amendment and restatement of the Prior Plans as of the
    effective date of this Plan, would otherwise have reverted to
    the share reserves of the Prior Plans. In addition, the number
    of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan
    shall automatically increase on January 1st of each
    year commencing in 2012 and ending on (and including)
    January 1, 2015, in an amount equal to the lesser of
    (i) two percent (2.0%) of the total number of shares of
    Common Stock outstanding on December 31st of the
    preceding calendar year, or (ii) one million (1,000,000)
    shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board
    may act prior to the first day of any calendar year, to provide
    that there shall be no increase in the share reserve for such
    calendar year or that the increase in the share reserve for such
    calendar year shall be a lesser number of shares of Common Stock
    than would otherwise occur pursuant to the preceding sentence.



 



    (b) Reversion of Shares to the Share
    Reserve.  If any Stock Award shall for any reason
    expire or otherwise terminate, in whole or in part, without
    having been exercised in full, if any shares of Common Stock
    issued to a Participant pursuant to a Stock Award are forfeited
    to or repurchased by the Company, including, but not limited to,
    any repurchase or forfeiture caused by the failure to meet a
    contingency or condition required for the vesting of such
    shares, or if any shares of Common Stock are cancelled in
    accordance with the cancellation and regrant provisions of
    Section 3(b)(v), then the shares of Common Stock not issued
    under such Stock Award, or forfeited to or repurchased by the
    Company, shall revert to and again become available for issuance
    under the Plan. If any shares subject to a Stock Award are not
    delivered to a Participant because such shares are withheld for
    the payment of taxes or the Stock Award is exercised through a
    reduction of shares subject to the Stock Award (i.e.,
    “net exercised”), the number of shares that are not
    delivered to the Participant shall remain available for issuance
    under the Plan. If the exercise price of any Stock Award is
    satisfied by tendering shares of Common Stock held by the
    Participant (either by actual delivery or attestation), then the
    number of shares so tendered shall remain available for issuance
    under the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
    Section 4(b), subject to the provisions of
    Section 10(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments the
    aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be
    issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options shall
    be fifteen million seven hundred forty-seven eight hundred and
    forty-seven (15,747,847) shares of Common Stock plus the amount
    of any increase in the number of shares that may be available
    for issuance pursuant to Stock Awards pursuant to
    Section 4(a).



 



    (c) Source of Shares.  The stock issuable
    under the Plan shall be shares of authorized but unissued or
    reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the
    Company on the open market.



 


		
	
    5.  
	
    Eligibility.




 



    (a) Eligibility for Specific Stock
    Awards.  Incentive Stock Options may be granted
    only to Employees. Stock Awards other than Incentive Stock
    Options may be granted to Employees, Directors and Consultants.



 



    (b) Ten Percent Stockholders.  A Ten
    Percent Stockholder shall not be granted an Incentive Stock
    Option unless the exercise price of such Option is at least one
    hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the
    Common Stock on the date of grant and the Option is not
    exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the
    date of grant.



 



    (c) Section 162(m) Limitation on Annual
    Grants.  Subject to the provisions of
    Section 10(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments, at
    such time as the Company may be subject to the applicable
    provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code, no Employee shall
    be eligible to be granted Stock Awards whose value is determined
    by reference to an increase over an exercise or strike price of
    at least one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market






    

    8








 







    Value of the Common Stock on the date the Stock Award is granted
    covering more than five hundred thousand (500,000) shares of
    Common Stock during any calendar year.



 



    (d) Consultants.  A Consultant shall not
    be eligible for the grant of a Stock Award if, at the time of
    grant, a
    Form S-8
    Registration Statement under the Securities Act
    (“Form S-8”)
    is not available to register either the offer or the sale of the
    Company’s securities to such Consultant because of the
    nature of the services that the Consultant is providing to the
    Company, because the Consultant is not a natural person, or
    because of any other rule governing the use of
    Form S-8.



 


		
	
    6.  
	
    Option
    Provisions.




 



    Each Option shall be in such form and shall contain such terms
    and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. All Options
    shall be separately designated Incentive Stock Options or
    Nonstatutory Stock Options at the time of grant, and, if
    certificates are issued, a separate certificate or certificates
    shall be issued for shares of Common Stock purchased on exercise
    of each type of Option. The provisions of separate Options need
    not be identical; provided, however, that each Option
    Agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions
    hereof by reference in the Option or otherwise) the substance of
    each of the following provisions:



 



    (a) Term.  The Board shall determine the
    term of an Option; provided, however, that subject to the
    provisions of Section 5(b) regarding Ten Percent
    Stockholders, no Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable
    after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date of
    grant.



 



    (b) Exercise Price of an Incentive Stock
    Option.  Subject to the provisions of
    Section 5(b) regarding Ten Percent Stockholders, the
    exercise price of each Incentive Stock Option shall be not less
    than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the
    Common Stock subject to the Option on the date the Option is
    granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Incentive Stock
    Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that set
    forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is granted
    pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in
    a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 424(a)
    of the Code.



 



    (c) Exercise Price of a Nonstatutory Stock
    Option.  The exercise price of each Nonstatutory
    Stock Option shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%)
    of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the
    Option on the date the Option is granted. Notwithstanding the
    foregoing, a Nonstatutory Stock Option may be granted with an
    exercise price lower than that set forth in the preceding
    sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or
    substitution for another option in a manner consistent with the
    provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code.



 



    (d) Consideration.  The purchase price of
    Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option
    shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable law and as
    determined by the Board in its sole discretion, by any
    combination of the methods of payment set forth below. The Board
    shall have the authority to grant Options that do not permit all
    of the following methods of payment (or otherwise restrict the
    ability to use certain methods) and to grant Options that
    require the consent of the Company to utilize a particular
    method of payment. The methods of payment permitted by this
    Section 6(d) are:



 



    (i) by cash or check;



 



    (ii) pursuant to a program developed under
    Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board
    that, prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either
    the receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of
    irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to
    the Company from the sales proceeds; provided, however,
    that such program is not in violation of the prohibition on
    the extension of credit to the Company’s executive officers
    and Directors under Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
    of 2002, in the opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company;



 



    (iii) by delivery to the Company (either by actual delivery
    or attestation) of shares of Common Stock;



 



    (iv) by a “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to
    which the Company will reduce the number of shares of Common
    Stock issued upon exercise by the largest whole number of shares
    with a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate
    exercise price; provided, however, the Company shall
    accept a






    

    9








 







    cash or other payment from the Participant to the extent of any
    remaining balance of the aggregate exercise price not satisfied
    by such reduction in the number of whole shares to be issued;
    provided, however, shares of Common Stock will no longer
    be outstanding under an Option and will not be exercisable
    thereafter to the extent that (i) shares are used to pay
    the exercise price pursuant to the “net exercise,”
    (ii) shares are delivered to the Participant as a result of
    such exercise, and (iii) shares are withheld to satisfy tax
    withholding obligations; or



 



    (v) in any other form of legal consideration that may be
    acceptable to the Board.



 



    (e) Transferability of Options.  The Board
    may, in its sole discretion, impose such limitations on the
    transferability of Options as the Board shall determine. In the
    absence of such a determination by the Board to the contrary,
    the following restrictions on the transferability of Options
    shall apply:



 



    (i) Restrictions on Transfer.  An Option
    shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of
    descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the
    lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder.



 



    (ii) Domestic Relations
    Orders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option
    may be transferred pursuant to a domestic relations order.



 



    (iii) Beneficiary
    Designation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
    Optionholder may, by delivering written notice to the Company,
    in a form provided by or otherwise satisfactory to the Company,
    designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the
    Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the
    Option.



 



    (f) Vesting Generally.  The total number
    of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option may vest and
    therefore become exercisable in periodic installments that may
    or may not be equal. The Option may be subject to such other
    terms and conditions on the time or times when it may or may not
    be exercised (which may be based on performance or other
    criteria) as the Board may deem appropriate. The vesting
    provisions of individual Options may vary. The provisions of
    this Section 6(f) are subject to any Option provisions
    governing the minimum number of shares of Common Stock as to
    which an Option may be exercised.



 



    (g) Termination of Continuous Service.  In
    the event that an Optionholder’s Continuous Service
    terminates (other than upon the Optionholder’s death or
    Disability), the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to
    the extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise such
    Option as of the date of termination of Continuous Service) but
    only within such period of time ending on the earlier of
    (i) the date three (3) months following the
    termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service (or
    such longer or shorter period specified in the Option
    Agreement), or (ii) the expiration of the term of the
    Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after
    termination of Continuous Service, the Optionholder does not
    exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein or
    in the Option Agreement (as applicable), the Option shall
    terminate.



 



    (h) Extension of Termination Date.  An
    Optionholder’s Option Agreement may provide that if the
    exercise of the Option following the termination of the
    Optionholder’s Continuous Service (other than upon the
    Optionholder’s death or Disability or upon a Change in
    Control) would be prohibited at any time solely because the
    issuance of shares of Common Stock would violate the
    registration requirements under the Securities Act, then the
    Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration
    of a period of three (3) months after the termination of
    the Optionholder’s Continuous Service during which the
    exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such
    registration requirements, or (ii) the expiration of the
    term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement.



 



    (i) Disability of Optionholder.  In the
    event that an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates
    as a result of the Optionholder’s Disability, the
    Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that
    the Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the
    date of termination of Continuous Service), but only within such
    period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date twelve
    (12) months following such termination of Continuous
    Service (or such longer or shorter period specified in the
    Option Agreement), or (ii) the expiration of the term of
    the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after
    termination of






    

    10








 







    Continuous Service, the Optionholder does not exercise his or
    her Option within the time specified herein or in the Option
    Agreement (as applicable), the Option shall terminate.



 



    (j) Death of Optionholder.  In the event
    that (i) an Optionholder’s Continuous Service
    terminates as a result of the Optionholder’s death, or
    (ii) the Optionholder dies within the period (if any)
    specified in the Option Agreement after the termination of the
    Optionholder’s Continuous Service for a reason other than
    death, then the Option may be exercised (to the extent the
    Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date
    of death) by the Optionholder’s estate, by a person who
    acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or
    inheritance or by a person designated to exercise the option
    upon the Optionholder’s death, but only within the period
    ending on the earlier of (i) the date eighteen
    (18) months following the date of death (or such longer or
    shorter period specified in the Option Agreement), or
    (ii) the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth
    in the Option Agreement. If, after the Optionholder’s
    death, the Option is not exercised within the time specified
    herein or in the Option Agreement (as applicable), the Option
    shall terminate.



 



    (k) Early Exercise.  The Option may
    include a provision whereby the Optionholder may elect at any
    time before the Optionholder’s Continuous Service
    terminates to exercise the Option as to any part or all of the
    shares of Common Stock subject to the Option prior to the full
    vesting of the Option. Any unvested shares of Common Stock so
    purchased may be subject to a repurchase option in favor of the
    Company or to any other restriction the Board determines to be
    appropriate. The Company shall not be required to exercise its
    repurchase option until at least six (6) months (or such
    longer or shorter period of time necessary to avoid a charge to
    earnings for financial accounting purposes) have elapsed
    following exercise of the Option unless the Board otherwise
    specifically provides in the Option.



 


		
	
    7.  
	
    Provisions
    of Stock Awards other than Options.




 



    (a) Stock Purchase Awards.  Each Stock
    Purchase Award Agreement shall be in such form and shall contain
    such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate.
    At the Board’s election, shares of Common Stock may be
    (i) held in book entry form subject to the Company’s
    instructions until any restrictions relating to the Stock
    Purchase Award lapse; or (ii) evidenced by a certificate,
    which certificate shall be held in such form and manner as
    determined by the Board. The terms and conditions of Stock
    Purchase Award Agreements may change from time to time, and the
    terms and conditions of separate Stock Purchase Award Agreements
    need not be identical; provided, however, that each Stock
    Purchase Award Agreement shall include (through incorporation of
    the provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or
    otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:



 



    (i) Purchase Price.  At the time of the
    grant of a Stock Purchase Award, the Board will determine the
    price to be paid by the Participant for each share subject to
    the Stock Purchase Award. To the extent required by applicable
    law, the price to be paid by the Participant for each share of
    the Stock Purchase Award will not be less than the par value of
    a share of Common Stock.



 



    (ii) Consideration.  At the time of the
    grant of a Stock Purchase Award, the Board will determine the
    consideration permissible for the payment of the purchase price
    of the Stock Purchase Award. The purchase price of Common Stock
    acquired pursuant to the Stock Purchase Award shall be paid
    either: (i) in cash or by check at the time of purchase,
    (ii) at the discretion of the Board, according to a
    deferred payment or other similar arrangement with the
    Participant, (iii) by past or future services rendered to
    the Company or an Affiliate, or (iv) in any other form of
    legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board in its
    sole discretion and permissible under applicable law.



 



    (iii) Vesting.  Shares of Common Stock
    acquired under a Stock Purchase Award may be subject to a share
    repurchase right or option in favor of the Company in accordance
    with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board.



 



    (iv) Termination of Participant’s Continuous
    Service.  In the event that a Participant’s
    Continuous Service terminates, the Company shall have the right,
    but not the obligation, to repurchase or otherwise reacquire,
    any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by the Participant
    that have not vested as of the date of termination under the
    terms of the Stock Purchase Award Agreement. At the Board’s
    election, the price paid for all shares of Common Stock so
    repurchased or reacquired by the Company may be at the lesser
    of: (i) the






    

    11








 







    Fair Market Value on the relevant date, or (ii) the
    Participant’s original cost for such shares. The Company
    shall not be required to exercise its repurchase or
    reacquisition option until at least six (6) months (or such
    longer or shorter period of time necessary to avoid a charge to
    earnings for financial accounting purposes) have elapsed
    following the Participant’s purchase of the shares of stock
    acquired pursuant to the Stock Purchase Award unless otherwise
    determined by the Board or provided in the Stock Purchase Award
    Agreement.



 



    (v) Transferability.  Rights to purchase
    or receive shares of Common Stock granted under a Stock Purchase
    Award shall be transferable by the Participant only upon such
    terms and conditions as are set forth in the Stock Purchase
    Award Agreement, as the Board shall determine in its sole
    discretion, and so long as Common Stock awarded under the Stock
    Purchase Award remains subject to the terms of the Stock
    Purchase Award Agreement.



 



    (b) Stock Bonus Awards.  Each Stock Bonus
    Award Agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such
    terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. At the
    Board’s election, shares of Common Stock may be
    (i) held in book entry form subject to the Company’s
    instructions until any restrictions relating to the Stock Bonus
    Award lapse; or (ii) evidenced by a certificate, which
    certificate shall be held in such form and manner as determined
    by the Board. The terms and conditions of Stock Bonus Award
    Agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and
    conditions of separate Stock Bonus Award Agreements need not be
    identical, provided, however, that each Stock Bonus Award
    Agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions
    hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance
    of each of the following provisions:



 



    (i) Consideration.  A Stock Bonus Award
    may be awarded in consideration for (i) past or future
    services rendered to the Company or an Affiliate, or
    (ii) any other form of legal consideration that may be
    acceptable to the Board in its sole discretion and permissible
    under applicable law.



 



    (ii) Vesting.  Shares of Common Stock
    awarded under the Stock Bonus Award Agreement may be subject to
    forfeiture to the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule
    to be determined by the Board.



 



    (iii) Termination of Participant’s Continuous
    Service.  In the event a Participant’s
    Continuous Service terminates, the Company may receive via a
    forfeiture condition, any or all of the shares of Common Stock
    held by the Participant which have not vested as of the date of
    termination of Continuous Service under the terms of the Stock
    Bonus Award Agreement.



 



    (iv) Transferability.  Rights to acquire
    shares of Common Stock under the Stock Bonus Award Agreement
    shall be transferable by the Participant only upon such terms
    and conditions as are set forth in the Stock Bonus Award
    Agreement, as the Board shall determine in its sole discretion,
    so long as Common Stock awarded under the Stock Bonus Award
    Agreement remains subject to the terms of the Stock Bonus Award
    Agreement.



 



    (c) Stock Unit Awards.  Each Stock Unit
    Award Agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such
    terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. The
    terms and conditions of Stock Unit Award Agreements may change
    from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate
    Stock Unit Award Agreements need not be identical, provided,
    however, that each Stock Unit Award Agreement shall include
    (through incorporation of the provisions hereof by reference in
    the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the
    following provisions:



 



    (i) Consideration.  At the time of grant
    of a Stock Unit Award, the Board will determine the
    consideration, if any, to be paid by the Participant upon
    delivery of each share of Common Stock subject to the Stock Unit
    Award. The consideration to be paid (if any) by the Participant
    for each share of Common Stock subject to a Stock Unit Award may
    be paid in any form of legal consideration that may be
    acceptable to the Board in its sole discretion and permissible
    under applicable law.



 



    (ii) Vesting.  At the time of the grant of
    a Stock Unit Award, the Board may impose such restrictions or
    conditions to the vesting of the Stock Unit Award as it, in its
    sole discretion, deems appropriate.



 



    (iii) Payment.  A Stock Unit Award may be
    settled by the delivery of shares of Common Stock, their cash
    equivalent, any combination thereof or in any other form of
    consideration, as determined by the Board and contained in the
    Stock Unit Award Agreement.





    

    12








 







    (iv) Additional Restrictions.  At the time
    of the grant of a Stock Unit Award, the Board, as it deems
    appropriate, may impose such restrictions or conditions that
    delay the delivery of the shares of Common Stock (or their cash
    equivalent) subject to a Stock Unit Award after the vesting of
    such Stock Unit Award.



 



    (v) Dividend Equivalents.  Dividend
    equivalents may be credited in respect of shares of Common Stock
    covered by a Stock Unit Award, as determined by the Board and
    contained in the Stock Unit Award Agreement. At the sole
    discretion of the Board, such dividend equivalents may be
    converted into additional shares of Common Stock covered by the
    Stock Unit Award in such manner as determined by the Board. Any
    additional shares covered by the Stock Unit Award credited by
    reason of such dividend equivalents will be subject to all the
    terms and conditions of the underlying Stock Unit Award
    Agreement to which they relate.



 



    (vi) Termination of Participant’s Continuous
    Service.  Except as otherwise provided in the
    applicable Stock Unit Award Agreement, such portion of the Stock
    Unit Award that has not vested will be forfeited upon the
    Participant’s termination of Continuous Service.



 



    (d) Stock Appreciation Rights.  Each Stock
    Appreciation Right Agreement shall be in such form and shall
    contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem
    appropriate. The terms and conditions of Stock Appreciation
    Right Agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and
    conditions of separate Stock Appreciation Right Agreements need
    not be identical; provided, however, that each Stock
    Appreciation Right Agreement shall include (through
    incorporation of the provisions hereof by reference in the
    agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following
    provisions:



 



    (i) Strike Price and Calculation of
    Appreciation.  Each Stock Appreciation Right will
    be denominated in shares of Common Stock equivalents. The
    appreciation distribution payable on the exercise of a Stock
    Appreciation Right will be not greater than an amount equal to
    the excess of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (on the
    date of the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right) of a
    number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of share of
    Common Stock equivalents in which the Participant is vested
    under such Stock Appreciation Right, and with respect to which
    the Participant is exercising the Stock Appreciation Right on
    such date, over (ii) an amount (the strike price) that will
    be determined by the Board at the time of grant of the Stock
    Appreciation Right.



 



    (ii) Vesting.  At the time of the grant of
    a Stock Appreciation Right, the Board may impose such
    restrictions or conditions to the vesting of such Stock
    Appreciation Right as it, in its sole discretion, deems
    appropriate.



 



    (iii) Exercise.  To exercise any
    outstanding Stock Appreciation Right, the Participant must
    provide written notice of exercise to the Company in compliance
    with the provisions of the Stock Appreciation Right Agreement
    evidencing such Stock Appreciation Right.



 



    (iv) Payment.  The appreciation
    distribution in respect to a Stock Appreciation Right may be
    paid by the delivery of shares of Common Stock, in cash, any
    combination thereof or in any other form of consideration, as
    determined by the Board and contained in the Stock Appreciation
    Right Agreement evidencing such Stock Appreciation Right.



 



    (v) Termination of Continuous Service.  In
    the event that a Participant’s Continuous Service
    terminates, the Participant may exercise his or her Stock
    Appreciation Right (to the extent that the Participant was
    entitled to exercise such Stock Appreciation Right as of the
    date of termination) but only within such period of time ending
    on the earlier of (i) the date three (3) months
    following the termination of the Participant’s Continuous
    Service (or such longer or shorter period specified in the Stock
    Appreciation Right Agreement), or (ii) the expiration of
    the term of the Stock Appreciation Right as set forth in the
    Stock Appreciation Right Agreement. If, after termination, the
    Participant does not exercise his or her Stock Appreciation
    Right within the time specified herein or in the Stock
    Appreciation Right Agreement (as applicable), the Stock
    Appreciation Right shall terminate.



 



    (e) Performance Stock Awards.  A
    Performance Stock Award is any Stock Award that may be granted,
    may vest, or may be exercised based upon service conditions,
    upon the attainment during a Performance Period of certain
    Performance Goals, or both. The length of any Performance
    Period, the Performance Goals to be achieved






    

    13








 







    during the Performance Period, and the measure of whether and to
    what degree such Performance Goals have been attained shall be
    conclusively determined by the Board in its sole discretion. The
    maximum benefit to be received by any individual in any calendar
    year attributable to Performance Stock Awards shall not exceed
    the value of five hundred thousand (500,000) shares of Common
    Stock.



 



    (f) Other Stock Awards.  Other forms of
    Stock Awards valued in whole or in part by reference to, or
    otherwise based on, Common Stock may be granted either alone or
    in addition to Stock Awards provided for under Section 6
    and the preceding provisions of this Section 7. Subject to
    the provisions of the Plan, the Board shall have sole and
    complete authority to determine the persons to whom and the time
    or times at which such Other Stock Awards will be granted, the
    number of shares of Common Stock (or the cash equivalent
    thereof) to be granted pursuant to such Other Stock Awards and
    all other terms and conditions of such Other Stock Awards.



 


		
	
    8.  
	
    Covenants
    of the Company.




 



    (a) Availability of Shares.  During the
    terms of the Stock Awards, the Company shall keep available at
    all times the number of shares of Common Stock required to
    satisfy such Stock Awards.



 



    (b) Securities Law Compliance.  The
    Company shall seek to obtain from each regulatory commission or
    agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may
    be required to grant Stock Awards and to issue and sell shares
    of Common Stock upon exercise of the Stock Awards; provided,
    however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company
    to register under the Securities Act the Plan, any Stock Award
    or any Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such
    Stock Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable
    to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the
    authority that counsel for the Company deems necessary for the
    lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock under the Plan, the
    Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to
    issue and sell Common Stock upon exercise of such Stock Awards
    unless and until such authority is obtained.



 


		
	
    9.  
	
    Miscellaneous.




 



    (a) Use of Proceeds.  Proceeds from the
    sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Stock Awards shall
    constitute general funds of the Company.



 



    (b) Stockholder Rights.  No Participant
    shall be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the
    rights of a holder with respect to, any shares of Common Stock
    subject to such Stock Award unless and until such Participant
    has satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Stock Award
    pursuant to its terms.



 



    (c) No Employment or Other Service
    Rights.  Nothing in the Plan, any Stock Award
    Agreement or other instrument executed thereunder or any Stock
    Award granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Participant
    any right to continue to serve the Company or an Affiliate in
    the capacity in effect at the time the Stock Award was granted
    or shall affect the right of the Company or an Affiliate to
    terminate (i) the employment of an Employee with or without
    notice and with or without cause, (ii) the service of a
    Consultant pursuant to the terms of such Consultant’s
    agreement with the Company or an Affiliate, or (iii) the
    service of a Director pursuant to the Bylaws of the Company or
    an Affiliate, and any applicable provisions of the corporate law
    of the state in which the Company or the Affiliate is
    incorporated, as the case may be.



 



    (d) Incentive Stock Option $100,000
    Limitation.  To the extent that the aggregate Fair
    Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of Common Stock
    with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable
    for the first time by any Optionholder during any calendar year
    (under all plans of the Company and any Affiliates) exceeds one
    hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), the Options or portions
    thereof that exceed such limit (according to the order in which
    they were granted) shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock
    Options, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the
    applicable Option Agreement(s).



 



    (e) Investment Assurances.  The Company
    may require a Participant, as a condition of exercising or
    acquiring Common Stock under any Stock Award, (i) to give
    written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the
    Participant’s knowledge and experience in financial and
    business matters
    and/or to
    employ a purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the
    Company who is knowledgeable and experienced in financial and
    business matters and that he or she is capable of evaluating,
    alone or together with the purchaser representative, the merits
    and risks of exercising the Stock Award; and (ii) to give
    written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that the
    Participant is acquiring Common Stock subject to the Stock Award
    for the Participant’s own account






    

    14








 







    and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise
    distributing the Common Stock. The foregoing requirements, and
    any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be
    inoperative if (i) the issuance of the shares upon the
    exercise or acquisition of Common Stock under the Stock Award
    has been registered under a then currently effective
    registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) as
    to any particular requirement, a determination is made by
    counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in
    the circumstances under the then applicable securities laws. The
    Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place
    legends on stock certificates issued under the Plan as such
    counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to comply with
    applicable securities laws, including, but not limited to,
    legends restricting the transfer of the Common Stock.



 



    (f) Withholding Obligations.  To the
    extent provided by the terms of a Stock Award Agreement, the
    Company may, in its sole discretion, satisfy any federal, state
    or local tax withholding obligation relating to a Stock Award by
    any of the following means (in addition to the Company’s
    right to withhold from any compensation paid to the Participant
    by the Company) or by a combination of such means:
    (i) causing the Participant to tender a cash payment;
    (ii) withholding shares of Common Stock from the shares of
    Common Stock issued or otherwise issuable to the Participant in
    connection with the Stock Award; provided, however, that
    no shares of Common Stock are withheld with a value exceeding
    the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law (or
    such lower amount as may be necessary to avoid variable award
    accounting); or (iii) by such other method as may be set
    forth in the Stock Award Agreement.



 



    (g) Electronic Delivery.  Any reference
    herein to a “written” agreement or document shall
    include any agreement or document delivered electronically or
    posted on the Company’s intranet.



 


		
	
    10.  
	
    Adjustments
    upon Changes in Common Stock; Corporate Transactions.




 



    (a) Capitalization Adjustments.  If any
    change is made in, or other events occur with respect to, the
    Common Stock subject to the Plan or subject to any Stock Award
    after the effective date of the Plan set forth in
    Section 13 without the receipt of consideration by the
    Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization,
    recapitalization, reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in
    property other than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend,
    combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate
    structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of
    consideration by the Company (each a “Capitalization
    Adjustment”)), the Board shall appropriately
    adjust: (i) the class(es) and maximum number of securities
    subject to the Plan pursuant to Section 4(a), (ii) the
    class(es) and maximum number of securities by which the share
    reserve is to increase automatically each year pursuant to
    Section 4(a), (iii) the class(es) and number of
    securities subject to each outstanding stock award under the
    Prior Plans that are added from time to time to the share
    reserve under the Plan pursuant to Section 4(a),
    (iv) the class(es) and maximum number of securities that
    may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock
    Options pursuant to Section 4(b), (v) the class(es)
    and maximum number of securities that may be awarded to any
    person pursuant to Sections 5(c) and 7(e), and
    (vi) the class(es) and number of securities and price per
    share of stock subject to outstanding Stock Awards. The Board
    shall make such adjustments, and its determination shall be
    final, binding and conclusive. (Notwithstanding the foregoing,
    the conversion of any convertible securities of the Company
    shall not be treated as a transaction “without receipt of
    consideration” by the Company.)



 



    (b) Dissolution or Liquidation.  In the
    event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, all
    outstanding Stock Awards (other than Stock Awards consisting of
    vested and outstanding shares of Common Stock not subject to the
    Company’s right of repurchase) shall terminate immediately
    prior to the completion of such dissolution or liquidation, and
    the shares of Common Stock subject to the Company’s
    repurchase option may be repurchased by the Company
    notwithstanding the fact that the holder of such Stock Award is
    providing Continuous Service, provided, however, that the
    Board may, in its sole discretion, cause some or all Stock
    Awards to become fully vested, exercisable
    and/or no
    longer subject to repurchase or forfeiture (to the extent such
    Stock Awards have not previously expired or terminated) before
    the dissolution or liquidation is completed but contingent on
    its completion.



 



    (c) Corporate Transaction.  The following
    provisions shall apply to Stock Awards in the event of a
    Corporate Transaction unless otherwise provided in a written
    agreement between the Company or any Affiliate and the holder of
    the Stock Award:



 



    (i) Stock Awards May Be Assumed.  In the
    event of a Corporate Transaction, any surviving corporation or
    acquiring corporation (or the surviving or acquiring
    corporation’s parent company) may assume or continue any or
    all Stock Awards outstanding under the Plan or may substitute
    similar stock awards for Stock Awards






    

    15








 







    outstanding under the Plan (including but not limited to, awards
    to acquire the same consideration paid to the stockholders of
    the Company pursuant to the Corporate Transaction), and any
    reacquisition or repurchase rights held by the Company in
    respect of Common Stock issued pursuant to Stock Awards may be
    assigned by the Company to the successor of the Company (or the
    successor’s parent company, if any), in connection with
    such Corporate Transaction. A surviving corporation or acquiring
    corporation may choose to assume or continue only a portion of a
    Stock Award or substitute a similar stock award for only a
    portion of a Stock Award. The terms of any assumption,
    continuation or substitution shall be set by the Board in
    accordance with the provisions of Section 3(b).



 



    (ii) Stock Awards Held by Current
    Participants.  In the event of a Corporate
    Transaction in which the surviving corporation or acquiring
    corporation (or its parent company) does not assume or continue
    such outstanding Stock Awards or substitute similar stock awards
    for such outstanding Stock Awards, then with respect to Stock
    Awards that have not been assumed, continued or substituted and
    that are held by Participants whose Continuous Service has not
    terminated prior to the effective time of the Corporate
    Transaction (referred to as the “Current
    Participants”), the vesting of such Stock Awards
    (and, if applicable, the time at which such Stock Awards may be
    exercised) shall (contingent upon the effectiveness of the
    Corporate Transaction) be accelerated in full to a date prior to
    the effective time of such Corporate Transaction as the Board
    shall determine (or, if the Board shall not determine such a
    date, to the date that is five (5) days prior to the
    effective time of the Corporate Transaction), and such Stock
    Awards shall terminate if not exercised (if applicable) at or
    prior to the effective time of the Corporate Transaction, and
    any reacquisition or repurchase rights held by the Company with
    respect to such Stock Awards shall lapse (contingent upon the
    effectiveness of the Corporate Transaction). No vested Stock
    Unit Award shall terminate pursuant to this
    Section 10(c)(ii) without being settled by delivery of
    shares of Common Stock, their cash equivalent, any combination
    thereof, or in any other form of consideration, as determined by
    the Board, prior to the effective time of the Corporate
    Transaction.



 



    (iii) Stock Awards Held by Former
    Participants.  In the event of a Corporate
    Transaction in which the surviving corporation or acquiring
    corporation (or its parent company) does not assume or continue
    such outstanding Stock Awards or substitute similar stock awards
    for such outstanding Stock Awards, then with respect to Stock
    Awards that have not been assumed, continued or substituted and
    that are held by persons other than Current Participants, the
    vesting of such Stock Awards (and, if applicable, the time at
    which such Stock Award may be exercised) shall not be
    accelerated and such Stock Awards (other than a Stock Award
    consisting of vested and outstanding shares of Common Stock not
    subject to the Company’s right of repurchase) shall
    terminate if not exercised (if applicable) prior to the
    effective time of the Corporate Transaction; provided,
    however, that any reacquisition or repurchase rights held by
    the Company with respect to such Stock Awards shall not
    terminate and may continue to be exercised notwithstanding the
    Corporate Transaction. No vested Stock Unit Award shall
    terminate pursuant to this Section 10(c)(iii) without being
    settled by delivery of shares of Common Stock, their cash
    equivalent, any combination thereof, or in any other form of
    consideration, as determined by the Board, prior to the
    effective time of the Corporate Transaction.



 



    (iv) Payment for Stock Awards in Lieu of
    Exercise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
    event a Stock Award will terminate if not exercised prior to the
    effective time of a Corporate Transaction, the Board may
    provide, in its sole discretion, that the holder of such Stock
    Award may not exercise such Stock Award but will receive a
    payment, in such form as may be determined by the Board, equal
    in value to the excess, if any, of (i) the value of the
    property the holder of the Stock Award would have received upon
    the exercise of the Stock Award, over (ii) any exercise
    price payable by such holder in connection with such exercise.



 



    (d) Change in Control.  A Stock Award may
    be subject to additional acceleration of vesting and
    exercisability upon or after a Change in Control as may be
    provided in the Stock Award Agreement for such Stock Award or as
    may be provided in any other written agreement between the
    Company or any Affiliate and the Participant. A Stock Award may
    vest as to all or any portion of the shares subject to the Stock
    Award (i) immediately upon the occurrence of a Change in
    Control, whether or not such Stock Award is assumed, continued,
    or substituted by a surviving or acquiring entity in the Change
    in Control, or (ii) in the event a Participant’s
    Continuous Service is terminated, actually or constructively,
    within a designated period following the occurrence of a Change
    in Control. In the absence of such provisions, no such
    acceleration shall occur.

    11.  
	
    Amendment
    of the Plan and Stock Awards.




 



    (a) Amendment of Plan.  Subject to the
    limitations, if any, of applicable law, the Board at any time,
    and from time to time, may amend the Plan. However, except as
    provided in Section 10(a) relating to Capitalization
    Adjustments, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by
    the stockholders of the Company to the extent stockholder
    approval is necessary to satisfy applicable law.



 



    (b) Stockholder Approval.  The Board, in
    its sole discretion, may submit any other amendment to the Plan
    for stockholder approval, including, but not limited to,
    amendments to the Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of
    Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder
    regarding the exclusion of performance-based compensation from
    the limit on corporate deductibility of compensation paid to
    Covered Employees.



 



    (c) Contemplated Amendments.  It is
    expressly contemplated that the Board may amend the Plan in any
    respect the Board deems necessary or advisable to provide
    eligible Employees with the maximum benefits provided or to be
    provided under the provisions of the Code and the regulations
    promulgated thereunder relating to Incentive Stock Options
    and/or to
    bring the Plan
    and/or
    Incentive Stock Options granted under it into compliance
    therewith.



 



    (d) No Impairment of Rights.  Rights under
    any Stock Award granted before amendment of the Plan shall not
    be impaired by any amendment of the Plan unless (i) the
    Company requests the consent of the affected Participant, and
    (ii) such Participant consents in writing.



 



    (e) Amendment of Stock Awards.  The Board,
    at any time and from time to time, may amend the terms of any
    one or more Stock Awards, including, but not limited to,
    amendments to provide terms more favorable than previously
    provided in the Stock Award Agreement, subject to any specified
    limits in the Plan that are not subject to Board discretion;
    provided, however, that the rights under any Stock Award
    shall not be impaired by any such amendment unless (i) the
    Company requests the consent of the affected Participant, and
    (ii) such Participant consents in writing.



 


		
	
    12.  
	
    Termination
    or Suspension of the Plan.




 



    (a) Plan Term.  The Board may suspend or
    terminate the Plan at any time. Unless sooner terminated, the
    Plan shall terminate on the day before the tenth (10th)
    anniversary of the earlier of (i) the date the amended and
    restated Plan is adopted by the Board, or (ii) the date the
    Plan is approved by the stockholders of the Company. No Stock
    Awards may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended
    or after it is terminated.



 



    (b) No Impairment of Rights.  Suspension
    or termination of the Plan shall not impair rights and
    obligations under any Stock Award granted while the Plan is in
    effect except with the written consent of the affected
    Participant.



 


		
	
    13.  
	
    Effective

    The 2001 Equity Incentive Plan was effective as of July 20,
    2001 and the 2002 Equity Incentive Plan was effective as of
    May 30, 2002, and the Prior Plans shall continue in their
    amended and restated form as the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan,
    with such amendment and restatement effective as of the IPO
    Date, but no Stock Award shall be exercised (or, in the case of
    a Stock Purchase Award, Stock Bonus Award, Stock Unit Award, or
    Other Stock Award shall be granted) with respect to shares
    exceeding the number of shares reserved for issuance under the
    Prior Plans prior to the effective date of such amendment and
    restatement unless and until the Plan, as amended and restated,
    has been approved by the stockholders of the Company, which
