|Death              |  | If your Service terminates because of your death, then your option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date twelve (12) months after the date of death. During that twelve month period, your estate or heirs may exercise
the vested portion of your option.

|                   |  | In addition, if you die during the 90-day period described in connection with a regular termination (i.e., a termination of your Service not on account of your death, Disability or Cause), and a vested portion of your option has not yet been
exercised, then your option will instead expire on the date twelve (12) months after your termination date. In such a case, during the period following your death up to the date twelve (12) months after your termination date, your estate or heirs may
exercise the vested portion of your option.                                                    
|Disability         |  | If your Service terminates because of your Disability, then your option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date twelve (12) months after your termination date.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
|Leaves of Absence  |  | For purposes of this option, your Service does not terminate when you go on abona fideemployee leave of absence that was approved by the Company in writing, if the terms of the leave provide for
continued Service crediting, or when continued Service crediting is required by applicable law. However, your Service will be treated as terminating 90 days after you went on employee leave, unless your right to return to active work is guaranteed by
law or by a contract. Your Service terminates in any event when the approved leave ends unless you immediately return to active employee work.
|                   |  | The Company determines, in its sole discretion, which leaves count for this purpose, and when your Service terminates for all purposes under the Plan.

generally). Your notice must also specify how your shares of Stock should be registered (in your name only or in your and your spouse's names as joint tenants with right of survivorship). The notice will be effective when it is received by the
Company.                                                                                          
|                   |  | If someone else wants to exercise this option after your death, that person must prove to the Company's satisfaction that he or she is entitled to do so.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
|Form of Payment    |  | When you submit your notice of exercise, you must include payment of the option price for the shares you are purchasing. Payment may be made in one (or a combination) of the following forms:

|                   |  |  By delivery (on a form prescribed by the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a licensed securities broker acceptable to the Company to sell Stock and to deliver all or part of the sale proceeds to the Company in payment of the aggregate
option price and any withholding taxes (if approved in advance by the Compensation Committee of the Board if you are either an executive officer or a director of the Company).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
|------------------ |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Withholding Taxes  |  | You will not be allowed to exercise this option unless you make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of the option exercise or sale of Stock acquired under this option. In the event that the
Company determines that any federal, state, local or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to the exercise or sale of shares arising from this grant, the Company shall have the right to require such payments from you, or withhold
such amounts from other payments due to you from the Company or any Affiliate.                                                                                                                                                               
|Transfer of Option |  | During your lifetime, only you (or, in the event of your legal incapacity or incompetency, your guardian or legal representative) may exercise the option. You cannot transfer or assign this option. For instance, you may not sell this option or use it
as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this option will immediately become invalid. You may, however, dispose of this option in your will or it may be transferred upon your death by the laws of descent and distribution.
Regardless of any marital property settlement agreement, the Company is not obligated to honor a notice of exercise from your spouse, nor is the Company obligated to recognize your spouse's interest in your option in any other way.
|Retention Rights   |  | Neither your option nor this Agreement gives you the right to be retained by the Company (or any parent, Subsidiaries or Affiliates) in any capacity. The Company (and any parent, Subsidiaries or Affiliates) reserves the right to terminate your
Service at any time and for any reason.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              
|Shareholder Rights |  | You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a shareholder of the Company until a certificate for your option's shares has been issued (or an appropriate book entry has been made). No adjustments are made for dividends or other rights if the
applicable record date occurs before your stock certificate is issued (or an appropriate book entry has been made), except as described in the Plan.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
|Adjustments        |  | In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in the Stock, the number of shares covered by this option and the option price per share shall be adjusted (and rounded down to the nearest whole number) if required pursuant to the
Plan. Your option shall be subject to the terms of the agreement of merger, liquidation or reorganization in the event the Company is subject to such corporate activity.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
|Applicable Law     |  | This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of California other than any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law
of another jurisdiction.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
|                   |  | Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, in no event may any Option be exercised, in whole or in part, prior to the date the Plan is registered as required by law and in accordance with all applicable laws.
