 INPHI CORPORATION 

2010 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 (as amended and restated on February 22, 2011) 
 SECTION 1. ESTABLISHMENT AND PURPOSE.

 The Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors on June 7, 2010, and shall be effective immediately prior to the
closing of the initial offering of Stock to the public pursuant to a registration statement filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Effective Date”). The Plan was amended and restated on February 22, 2011.
The purpose of the Plan is to promote the long-term success of the Company and the creation of stockholder value by (a) encouraging Employees, Outside Directors and Consultants to focus on critical long-range objectives, (b) encouraging
the attraction and retention of Employees, Outside Directors and Consultants with exceptional qualifications and (c) linking Employees, Outside Directors and Consultants directly to stockholder interests through increased stock ownership. The
Plan seeks to achieve this purpose by providing for Awards in the form of restricted shares, stock units, options (which may constitute incentive stock options or nonstatutory stock options) or stock appreciation rights. 

SECTION 2. DEFINITIONS. 

(a) “Affiliate” shall mean any entity other than a Subsidiary, if the Company and/or one or more Subsidiaries own not
less than 50% of such entity. 
 (b) “Award” shall mean any award of an Option, a SAR, a Restricted Share or a
Stock Unit under the Plan. 
 (c) “Board of Directors” shall mean the Board of Directors of the Company, as
constituted from time to time. 
 (d) “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following
events: 
  

	 	(i)	A change in the composition of the Board of Directors occurs, as a result of which fewer than one-half of the incumbent directors are directors who either:


 (A) Had been directors of the Company on the “look-back date” (as defined below) (the
“original directors”); or 
 (B) Were elected, or nominated for election, to the Board of Directors
with the affirmative votes of at least a majority of the aggregate of the original directors who were still in office at the time of the election or nomination and the directors whose election or nomination was previously so approved (the
“continuing directors”); or 
  

	 	(ii)	 Any “person” (as defined below) who by the acquisition or aggregation of securities, is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as
defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the 



  
 - 1 -










	 	 
Company representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities ordinarily (and apart from rights accruing under special circumstances) having the
right to vote at elections of directors (the “Base Capital Stock”); except that any change in the relative beneficial ownership of the Company’s securities by any person resulting solely from a reduction in the aggregate number of
outstanding shares of Base Capital Stock, and any decrease thereafter in such person’s ownership of securities, shall be disregarded until such person increases in any manner, directly or indirectly, such person’s beneficial ownership of
any securities of the Company; or 


  

	 	(iii)	The consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or any other corporate reorganization, if persons who were not stockholders of
the Company immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or other reorganization own immediately after such merger, consolidation or other reorganization 50% or more of the voting power of the outstanding securities of each of (A) the
continuing or surviving entity and (B) any direct or indirect parent corporation of such continuing or surviving entity; or 

  

	 	(iv)	The sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. 


For purposes of subsection (d)(i) above, the term “look-back” date shall mean the later of (1) the Effective Date or
(2) the date 24 months prior to the date of the event that may constitute a Change in Control. 
 For purposes of
subsection (d)(ii)) above, the term “person” shall have the same meaning as when used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act but shall exclude (1) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan
maintained by the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary and (2) a corporation owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Stock. 

Any other provision of this Section 2(d) notwithstanding, a transaction shall not constitute a Change in Control if its sole purpose
is to change the state of the Company’s incorporation or to create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction, and a
Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur if the Company files a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for the initial offering of Stock to the public. 

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

(f) “Committee” shall mean the Compensation Committee as designated by the Board of Directors, which is authorized to

is not an Employee. 
 (i) “Employee” shall mean any individual who is a common-law employee of the
Company, a Parent, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate. 
 (j) “Exchange Act” shall mean the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 
 (k) “Exercise Price” shall mean, in the case of an Option, the
amount for which one Share may be purchased upon exercise of such Option, as specified in the applicable Stock Option Agreement. “Exercise Price,” in the case of a SAR, shall mean an amount, as specified in the applicable SAR Agreement,
which is subtracted from the Fair Market Value of one Share in determining the amount payable upon exercise of such SAR. 

(l) “Fair Market Value” with respect to a Share, shall mean the market price of one Share, determined by the
Committee as follows: 
  

	 	(i)	If the Stock was traded over-the-counter on the date in question, then the Fair Market Value shall be equal to the last transaction price quoted for such date by the
OTC Bulletin Board or, if not so quoted, shall be equal to the mean between the last reported representative bid and asked prices quoted for such date by the principal automated inter-dealer quotation system on which the Stock is quoted or, if the
Stock is not quoted on any such system, by the Pink Quote system; 

  

	 	(ii)	If the Stock was traded on any established stock exchange (such as the New York Stock Exchange, The Nasdaq Global Market or The Nasdaq Global Select Market) or national
market system on the date in question, then the Fair Market Value shall be equal to the closing price reported for such date by the applicable exchange or system; and 


 

	 	(iii)	If none of the foregoing provisions is applicable, then the Fair Market Value shall be determined by the Committee in good faith on such basis as it deems appropriate.


 In all cases, the determination of Fair Market Value by the Committee shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.

 (n) “Nonstatutory Option” or “NSO” shall mean an employee stock option that is not an ISO.

 (q) “Optionee” shall mean an individual or estate who
holds an Option or SAR. 
 (r) “Outside Director” shall mean a member of the Board of Directors who is not a
common-law employee of, or paid consultant to, the Company, a Parent or a Subsidiary. 
 (s) “Parent” shall
mean any corporation (other than the Company) in an unbroken chain of corporations ending with the Company, if each of the corporations other than the Company owns stock possessing 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of
stock in one of the other corporations in such chain. A corporation that attains the status of a Parent on a date after the adoption of the Plan shall be a Parent commencing as of such date.

and restrictions pertaining to his or her SAR. 
 (aa) “Service” shall mean service as an Employee, Consultant
or Outside Director, subject to such further limitations as may be set forth in the Plan or the applicable Stock Option Agreement, SAR Agreement, Restricted Share Agreement or Stock Unit Agreement. Service does not terminate when an Employee goes on
a bona fide 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, for purposes of determining
whether an Option is entitled to ISO status, an Employee’s employment will be treated as terminating three months after such Employee went on leave, unless such Employee’s right to return to active work is guaranteed by law or by a
contract. Service terminates in any event when the approved leave ends, unless such Employee immediately returns to active work. The Company determines which leaves of absence count toward Service, and when Service terminates for all purposes under
the Plan. 
 (bb) “Share” shall mean one share of Stock, as adjusted in accordance with Section 11 (if
applicable).

Unit. 
 (gg) “Subsidiary” shall mean any corporation, if the Company and/or one or more other Subsidiaries own

as of such date. 
 (hh) “Total and Permanent Disability” shall mean any permanent and total disability as
defined by section 22(e)(3) of the Code. 
 SECTION 3. ADMINISTRATION. 

(a) Committee Composition. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the Board. The Committee shall
consist of two or more directors of the Company. In addition, to the extent required by the Board, the composition of the Committee shall satisfy (i) such requirements as the Securities and Exchange Commission may establish for administrators
acting under plans intended to qualify for exemption under Rule 16b-3 (or its successor) under the Exchange Act; and (ii) such requirements as the Internal Revenue Service may establish for outside directors acting under plans intended to
qualify for exemption under Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code. 
 (b) Committee for Non-Officer Grants. The Board may
also appoint one or more separate committees of the Board, each composed of one or more directors of the Company who need not satisfy the requirements of Section 3(a), who may administer the Plan with respect to Employees who are not considered

to the Committee shall include such committee or committees appointed pursuant to the preceding sentence. To the extent permitted by applicable laws, the Board of Directors may also authorize one or more officers of the Company to designate
Employees, other than officers under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, to receive Awards and/or to determine the number of such Awards to be received by such persons; provided, however, that the Board of Directors shall specify the total number
of Awards that such officers may so award. 
 (c) Committee Procedures. The Board of Directors shall designate one of the
members of the Committee as chairman. The Committee may hold meetings at such times and

Committee members, shall be valid acts of the Committee.

the Plan, the Committee shall have full authority and discretion to take the following actions:

as it may deem appropriate, except that the Committee may not delegate its authority with regard to the selection for participation of or the granting of Options or other rights under the Plan to persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange
Act. All decisions, interpretations and other actions of the Committee shall be final and binding on all Offerees, all Optionees, and all persons deriving their rights from an Offeree or Optionee. No member of the Committee shall be liable for any
action that he has taken or has failed to take in good faith with respect to the Plan, any Option, or any right to acquire Shares under the Plan. 
 SECTION 4. ELIGIBILITY. 
 (a) General Rule. Only common-law employees
of the Company, a Parent or a Subsidiary shall be eligible for the grant of ISOs. Only Employees, Consultants and Outside Directors shall be eligible for the grant of Restricted Shares, Stock Units, Nonstatutory Options or SARs. 

(b) Automatic Grants to Outside Directors 
  

	 	(i)	Each Outside Director who first joins the Board of Directors on or after the Effective Date, and who was not previously an Employee, shall receive a grant of Stock

shall vest annually over a 4-year period beginning on the day which is one year after the date of grant, at an annual rate of 25% of the total number of Stock Units subject to such Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each such Option shall become

continue serving as a member of the Board of Directors thereafter shall receive a grant of Stock Units with respect to a number of Shares having an aggregate fair market value equal to $80,000
calculated on the date of grant, provided that such Outside Director has served on the Board of Directors for at least six months. Each Stock Unit granted under this Section 4(b)(ii) shall become fully vested on the first anniversary of the
date of grant; provided, however, that each such Option shall become exercisable in full immediately prior to the next regular annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders following such date of grant in the event such meeting occurs prior to
such first anniversary date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Stock Unit granted under this Section 4(b)(ii) shall become vested if a Change in Control occurs with respect to the Company during such Outside Director’s Service.



 (c) Ten-Percent Stockholders. An Employee who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power
of all classes of outstanding stock of the Company, a Parent or Subsidiary shall not be eligible for the grant of an ISO unless such grant satisfies the requirements of Section 422(c)(5) of the Code. 

(d) Attribution Rules. For purposes of Section 4(c) above, in determining stock ownership, an Employee shall be deemed to own
the stock owned, directly or indirectly, by or for such Employee’s brothers, sisters, spouse, ancestors and lineal descendants. Stock owned, directly or indirectly, by or for a corporation, partnership, estate or trust shall be deemed to be
owned proportionately by or for its stockholders, partners or beneficiaries. 
 (e) Outstanding Stock. For purposes of
Section 4(c) above, “outstanding stock” shall include all stock actually issued and outstanding immediately after the grant. “Outstanding stock” shall not include shares authorized for issuance under outstanding options held
by the Employee or by any other person.

 SECTION 5. STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN. 

(a) Basic Limitation. Shares offered under the Plan shall be authorized but unissued Shares or treasury Shares. The aggregate
number of Shares authorized for issuance as Awards under the Plan shall not exceed 2,000,000 Shares, plus (x) any Shares subject to outstanding options or forfeiture restrictions under the Company’s 2000 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan
(the “Predecessor Plan”) on the effective date of this Plan that are subsequently forfeited or terminated for any reason before being exercised and any reserved shares not issued or subject to outstanding grants under the Predecessor Plan
on the effective date of this Plan, such number of additional Shares not to exceed an aggregate of 1,000,000 Shares, and (y) an annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in 2011 and ending in 2020, in an amount equal to the
lesser of (i) 3,000,000 Shares, (ii) 5% of the outstanding Shares on the last day of the immediately preceding year or (iii) an amount determined by the Board. No more than 10,000,000 Shares may be delivered in the aggregate pursuant
to the exercise of ISOs granted under the Plan plus, to the extent allowable under Section 422 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, any Shares that become available for issuance under the Plan pursuant to
Section 5(c). The limitations of this Section 5(a) shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 11. The number of Shares that are subject to Options or other Awards outstanding at any time under the Plan shall not exceed the
number of Shares which then remain available for issuance under the Plan. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available sufficient Shares to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 

(b) Section 162(m) Award Limitation. Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of the Plan, and subject to the provisions of
Section 11, no Participant may receive Options, SARs, Restricted Shares or Stock Units under the Plan in any calendar year that relate to an aggregate of more than 3,000,000 Shares, and no more than two times this amount in the first year of
employment, and the maximum aggregate amount of cash that may be paid to any Participant during any calendar year with respect to Awards payable in cash shall be $2,000,000. 
 (c) Additional Shares. If Restricted Shares or Shares issued upon the exercise of Options are forfeited, then such Shares shall again become available for Awards under the Plan. If Stock Units,
Options or SARs are forfeited or terminate for any reason before being exercised or settled, or an Award is settled in cash without the delivery of Shares to the holder, then any Shares subject to the Award shall again become available for Awards
under the Plan. Only the number of Shares (if any) actually issued in settlement of Awards shall reduce the number available in Section 5(a) and the balance shall again become available for Awards under the Plan. Any Shares withheld to satisfy
the grant or exercise price or tax withholding obligation pursuant to any Award shall again become available for Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(c), Shares that have actually been issued shall
not again become available for Awards under the Plan, except for Shares that are forfeited and do not become vested. 
 SECTION 6. RESTRICTED
SHARES. 
 (a) Restricted Stock Agreement. Each grant of Restricted Shares under the Plan shall be evidenced by a
Restricted Stock Agreement between the recipient and the Company. Such Restricted Shares shall be subject to all applicable terms of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms that are not inconsistent with the Plan. The provisions of the
various Restricted Stock Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical. 

  
 - 9 -









 (b) Payment for Awards. Restricted Shares may be sold or awarded under the Plan for
such consideration as the Committee may determine, including (without limitation) cash, cash equivalents, full-recourse promissory notes, past services and future services. 
 (c) Vesting. Each Award of Restricted Shares may or may not be subject to vesting. Vesting shall occur, in full or in installments, upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in the Restricted
Stock Agreement. A Restricted Stock Agreement may provide for accelerated vesting in the event of the Participant’s death, disability or retirement or other events. The Committee may determine, at the time of granting Restricted Shares of
thereafter, that all or part of such Restricted Shares shall become vested in the event that a Change in Control occurs with respect to the Company. 
 (d) Voting and Dividend Rights. The holders of Restricted Shares awarded under the Plan shall have the same voting, dividend and other rights as the Company’s other stockholders. A Restricted
Stock Agreement, however, may require that the holders of Restricted Shares invest any cash dividends received in additional Restricted Shares. Such additional Restricted Shares shall be subject to the same conditions and restrictions as the Award
with respect to which the dividends were paid. 
 (e) Restrictions on Transfer of Shares. Restricted Shares shall be
subject to such rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal or other restrictions as the Committee may determine. Such restrictions shall be set forth in the applicable Restricted Stock Agreement and shall apply in addition to any general
restrictions that may apply to all holders of Shares. 
 SECTION 7. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS. 

(a) Stock Option Agreement. Each grant of an Option under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement between the
Optionee and the Company. Such Option shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which are not inconsistent with the Plan and which the Committee deems appropriate for
inclusion in a Stock Option Agreement. The Stock Option Agreement shall specify whether the Option is an ISO or an NSO. The provisions of the various Stock Option Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical. 

(b) Number of Shares. Each Stock Option Agreement shall specify the number of Shares that are subject to the Option and shall
provide for the adjustment of such number in accordance with Section 11. 
 (c) Exercise Price. Each Stock Option
Agreement shall specify the Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an ISO shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant, except as otherwise provided in 4(c), and the Exercise Price of an NSO shall not be less
100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with an Exercise Price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a transaction described
in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code. Subject to the foregoing in this Section 7(c), the Exercise Price under any Option shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The Exercise Price shall be
payable in one of the forms described in Section 8. 

  
 - 10 -









 (d) Withholding Taxes. As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the
Optionee shall make such arrangements as the Committee may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with such exercise. The Optionee shall also make such
arrangements as the Committee may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the disposition of Shares acquired by exercising an Option. 

(e) Exercisability and Term. Each Stock Option Agreement shall specify the date when all or any installment of the Option
is to become exercisable. The Stock Option Agreement shall also specify the term of the Option; provided that the term of an ISO shall in no event exceed 10 years from the date of grant (five years for ISOs granted to Employees described in
Section 4(c)). A Stock Option Agreement may provide for accelerated exercisability in the event of the Optionee’s death, disability, or retirement or other events and may provide for expiration prior to the end of its term in the event of
the termination of the Optionee’s Service. Options may be awarded in combination with SARs, and such an Award may provide that the Options will not be exercisable unless the related SARs are forfeited. Subject to the foregoing in this
Section 7(e), the Committee at its sole discretion shall determine when all or any installment of an Option is to become exercisable and when an Option is to expire. 
 (f) Exercise of Options. Each Stock Option Agreement shall set forth the extent to which the Optionee shall have the right to exercise the Option following termination of the Optionee’s
Service with the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the right to exercise the Option of any executors or administrators of the Optionee’s estate or any person who has acquired such Option(s) directly from the Optionee by bequest or inheritance.
Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, need not be uniform among all Options issued pursuant to the Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination of Service. 

(g) Effect of Change in Control. The Committee may determine, at the time of granting an Option or thereafter, that such
Option shall become exercisable as to all or part of the Shares subject to such Option in the event that a Change in Control occurs with respect to the Company. 
 (h) No Rights as a Stockholder. An Optionee, or a transferee of an Optionee, shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by his Option until the date of the
issuance of a stock certificate for such Shares. No adjustments shall be made, except as provided in Section 11. 

(i) Modification, Extension and Renewal of Options. Within the limitations of the Plan, the Committee may modify, extend or
renew outstanding options or may accept the cancellation of outstanding options (to the extent not previously exercised), whether or not granted hereunder, in return for the grant of new Options for the same or a different number of Shares and at
the same or a different Exercise Price, or in return for the grant of a different Award for the same or a different number of Shares. The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of an Option shall, without the consent of the Optionee, materially
impair his or her rights or obligations under such Option. 

  
 - 11 -









 (j) Restrictions on Transfer of Shares. Any Shares issued upon exercise of an
Option shall be subject to such special forfeiture conditions, rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal and other transfer restrictions as the Committee may determine. Such restrictions shall be set forth in the applicable Stock Option
Agreement and shall apply in addition to any general restrictions that may apply to all holders of Shares. 
 (k)
Buyout Provisions. The Committee may at any time (a) offer to buy out for a payment in cash or cash equivalents an Option previously granted or (b) authorize an Optionee to elect to cash out an Option previously granted, in either
case at such time and based upon such terms and conditions as the Committee shall establish. 
 SECTION 8. PAYMENT FOR SHARES.

 (a) General Rule. The entire Exercise Price or Purchase Price of Shares issued under the Plan shall be
payable in lawful money of the United States of America at the time when such Shares are purchased, except as provided in Section 8(b) through Section 8(g) below. 
 (b) Surrender of Stock. To the extent that a Stock Option Agreement so provides, payment may be made all or in part by surrendering, or attesting to the ownership of, Shares which have
already been owned by the Optionee or his representative. Such Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date when the new Shares are purchased under the Plan. The Optionee shall not surrender, or attest to the ownership of, Shares in
payment of the Exercise Price if such action would cause the Company to recognize compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to the Option for financial reporting purposes. 

(c) Services Rendered. At the discretion of the Committee, Shares may be awarded under the Plan in consideration of
services rendered to the Company or a Subsidiary. If Shares are awarded without the payment of a Purchase Price in cash, the Committee shall make a determination (at the time of the Award) of the value of the services rendered by the Offeree and the
sufficiency of the consideration to meet the requirements of Section 6(b). 
 (d) Cashless Exercise. To the
extent that a Stock Option Agreement so provides, payment may be made all or in part by delivery (on a form prescribed by the Committee) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker to sell Shares and to deliver all or part of the sale
proceeds to the Company in payment of the aggregate Exercise Price. 
 (e) Exercise/Pledge. To the extent that a
Stock Option Agreement so provides, payment may be made all or in part by delivery (on a form prescribed by the Committee) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker or lender to pledge Shares, as security for a loan, and to deliver all or
part of the loan proceeds to the Company in payment of the aggregate Exercise Price. 
 (f) Promissory Note. To
the extent that a Stock Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Agreement so provides, payment may be made all or in part by delivering (on a form prescribed by the Company) a full-recourse promissory note. 

  
 - 12 -









 (g) Other Forms of Payment. To the extent that a Stock Option Agreement or
Restricted Stock Agreement so provides, payment may be made in any other form that is consistent with applicable laws, regulations and rules. 
 (h) Limitations under Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein or in a Stock Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Agreement to the contrary, payment may not be made in any form that
is unlawful, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. 
 SECTION 9. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. 

(a) SAR Agreement. Each grant of a SAR under the Plan shall be evidenced by a SAR Agreement between the Optionee and the
Company. Such SAR shall be subject to all applicable terms of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms that are not inconsistent with the Plan. The provisions of the various SAR Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

 (b) Number of Shares. Each SAR Agreement shall specify the number of Shares to which the SAR pertains and shall
provide for the adjustment of such number in accordance with Section 11. 
 (c) Exercise Price. Each SAR
Agreement shall specify the Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of a SAR shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SARs may be granted with an Exercise Price of less than 100%
of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code. Subject to the foregoing in this Section 9(c), the Exercise Price under any SAR
shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. 
 (d) Exercisability and Term. Each SAR Agreement
shall specify the date when all or any installment of the SAR is to become exercisable. The SAR Agreement shall also specify the term of the SAR. A SAR Agreement may provide for accelerated exercisability in the event of the Optionee’s death,
disability or retirement or other events and may provide for expiration prior to the end of its term in the event of the termination of the Optionee’s service. SARs may be awarded in combination with Options, and such an Award may provide that
the SARs will not be exercisable unless the related Options are forfeited. A SAR may be included in an ISO only at the time of grant but may be included in an NSO at the time of grant or thereafter. A SAR granted under the Plan may provide that it
will be exercisable only in the event of a Change in Control. 
 (e) Effect of Change in Control. The Committee
may determine, at the time of granting a SAR or thereafter, that such SAR shall become fully exercisable as to all Common Shares subject to such SAR in the event that a Change in Control occurs with respect to the Company. 

(f) Exercise of SARs. Upon exercise of a SAR, the Optionee (or any person having the right to exercise the SAR after his or
her death) shall receive from the Company (a) Shares, (b) cash or (c) a combination of Shares and cash, as the Committee shall determine. The amount of cash and/or the Fair Market Value of Shares received upon exercise of SARs shall,
in the 
 aggregate, be equal to the amount by which the Fair Market Value (on the date of surrender) of the Shares subject to the SARs exceeds
the Exercise Price. 

  
 - 13 -









 (g) Modification or Assumption of SARs. Within the limitations of the Plan,
the Committee may modify, extend or assume outstanding SARs or may accept the cancellation of outstanding SARs (whether granted by the Company or by another issuer) in return for the grant of new SARs for the same or a different number of shares and
at the same or a different exercise price, or in return for the grant of a different Award for the same or a different number of Shares. The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of a SAR shall, without the consent of the holder, materially
impair his or her rights or obligations under such SAR. 
 (h) Buyout Provisions. The Committee may at any time
(a) offer to buy out for a payment in cash or cash equivalents a SAR previously granted, or (b) authorize an Optionee to elect to cash out a SAR previously granted, in either case at such time and based upon such terms and conditions as
the Committee shall establish. 
 SECTION 10. STOCK UNITS. 
 (a) Stock Unit Agreement. Each grant of Stock Units under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Unit Agreement between the recipient and the Company. Such Stock Units shall be subject to
all applicable terms of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms that are not inconsistent with the Plan. The provisions of the various Stock Unit Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical. 

(b) Payment for Awards. To the extent that an Award is granted in the form of Stock Units, no cash consideration shall be
required of the Award recipients. 
 (c) Vesting Conditions. Each Award of Stock Units may or may not be subject
to vesting. Vesting shall occur, in full or in installments, upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in the Stock Unit Agreement. A Stock Unit Agreement may provide for accelerated vesting in the event of the Participant’s death,
disability or retirement or other events. The Committee may determine, at the time of granting Stock Units or thereafter, that all or part of such Stock Units shall become vested in the event that a Change in Control occurs with respect to the
Company. 
 (d) Voting and Dividend Rights. The holders of Stock Units shall have no voting rights. Prior to
settlement or forfeiture, any Stock Unit awarded under the Plan may, at the Committee’s discretion, carry with it a right to dividend equivalents. Such right entitles the holder to be credited with an amount equal to all cash dividends paid on
one Share while the Stock Unit is outstanding. Dividend equivalents may be converted into additional Stock Units. Settlement of dividend equivalents may be made in the form of cash, in the form of Shares, or in a combination of both. Prior to
distribution, any dividend equivalents which are not paid shall be subject to the same conditions and restrictions (including without limitation, any forfeiture conditions) as the Stock Units to which they attach. 

(e) Form and Time of Settlement of Stock Units. Settlement of vested Stock Units may be made in the form of (a) cash,
(b) Shares or (c) any combination of both, as determined by 

  
 - 14 -









 
the Committee. The actual number of Stock Units eligible for settlement may be larger or smaller than the number included in the original Award, based on predetermined performance factors.
Methods of converting Stock Units into cash may include (without limitation) a method based on the average Fair Market Value of Shares over a series of trading days. A Stock Unit Agreement may provide that vested Stock Units may be settled in a lump
sum or in installments. A Stock Unit Agreement may provide that the distribution may occur or commence when all vesting conditions applicable to the Stock Units have been satisfied or have lapsed, or it may be deferred to any later date. The amount
of a deferred distribution may be increased by an interest factor or by dividend equivalents. Until an Award of Stock Units is settled, the number of such Stock Units shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 11. 

(f) Death of Recipient. Any Stock Units Award that becomes payable after the recipient’s death shall be distributed to
the recipient’s beneficiary or beneficiaries. Each recipient of a Stock Units Award under the Plan shall designate one or more beneficiaries for this purpose by filing the prescribed form with the Company. A beneficiary designation may be
changed by filing the prescribed form with the Company at any time before the Award recipient’s death. If no beneficiary was designated or if no designated beneficiary survives the Award recipient, then any Stock Units Award that becomes
payable after the recipient’s death shall be distributed to the recipient’s estate. 
 (g) Creditors’
Rights. A holder of Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company. Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Stock
Unit Agreement. 
 SECTION 11. ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES. 
 (a) Adjustments. In the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Stock, a declaration of a dividend payable in Shares, a declaration of a dividend payable in a form other than Shares in an
amount that has a material effect on the price of Shares, a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Stock (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of Shares, a recapitalization, a spin-off or a similar occurrence, the
Committee shall make appropriate and equitable adjustments in: 
  

	 	(i)	The number of Options, SARs, Restricted Shares and Stock Units available for future Awards under Section 5; 


 

	 	(ii)	The limitations set forth in Sections 5(a) and (b); 

  

	 	(iii)	The number of Shares covered by each outstanding Option and SAR; 

  

	 	(iv)	The Exercise Price under each outstanding Option and SAR; and 

  

	 	(v)	The number of Stock Units included in any prior Award which has not yet been settled. 


(b) Dissolution or Liquidation. To the extent not previously exercised or settled, Options, SARs and Stock Units shall
terminate immediately prior to the dissolution or liquidation of the Company. 

  
 - 15 -









 (c) Reorganizations. In the event that the Company is a party to a merger or
other reorganization, outstanding Awards shall be subject to the agreement of merger or reorganization. Subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code, such agreement shall provide for: 

 

	 	(i)	The continuation of the outstanding Awards by the Company, if the Company is a surviving corporation; 


 

	 	(ii)	The assumption of the outstanding Awards by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary; 


 

	 	(iii)	The substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary of its own awards for the outstanding Awards; 


 

	 	(iv)	Full exercisability or vesting and accelerated expiration of the outstanding Awards; or 


 

	 	(v)	Settlement of the intrinsic value of the outstanding Awards in cash or cash equivalents followed by cancellation of such Awards. 


(d) Reservation of Rights. Except as provided in this Section 11, a Participant shall have no rights by reason of any
subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class. Any issue by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities
convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or Exercise Price of Shares subject to an Award. The grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan shall not
affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, to merge or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its
business or assets. In the event of any change affecting the Shares or the Exercise Price of Shares subject to an Award, including a merger or other reorganization, for reasons of administrative convenience, the Company in its sole discretion may
refuse to permit the exercise of any Award during a period of up to thirty (30) days prior to the occurrence of such event. 
 SECTION
12. DEFERRAL OF AWARDS. 
 (a) Committee Powers. Subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the
Committee (in its sole discretion) may permit or require a Participant to: 
  

	 	(i)	Have cash that otherwise would be paid to such Participant as a result of the exercise of a SAR or the settlement of Stock Units credited to a deferred compensation
account established for such Participant by the Committee as an entry on the Company’s books; 

  

	 	(ii)	Have Shares that otherwise would be delivered to such Participant as a result of the exercise of an Option or SAR converted into an equal number of Stock Units; or



  
 - 16 -










	 	(iii)	Have Shares that otherwise would be delivered to such Participant as a result of the exercise of an Option or SAR or the settlement of Stock Units converted into
amounts credited to a deferred compensation account established for such Participant by the Committee as an entry on the Company’s books. Such amounts shall be determined by reference to the Fair Market Value of such Shares as of the date when
they otherwise would have been delivered to such Participant. 

 (b) General Rules. A deferred compensation
account established under this Section 12 may be credited with interest or other forms of investment return, as determined by the Committee. A Participant for whom such an account is established shall have no rights other than those of a
general creditor of the Company. Such an account shall represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable agreement between such Participant and the Company. If the
deferral or conversion of Awards is permitted or required, the Committee (in its sole discretion) may establish rules, procedures and forms pertaining to such Awards, including (without limitation) the settlement of deferred compensation accounts
established under this Section 12. 
 SECTION 13. AWARDS UNDER OTHER PLANS. 

The Company may grant awards under other plans or programs. Such awards may be settled in the form of Shares issued under this Plan. Such
Shares shall be treated for all purposes under the Plan like Shares issued in settlement of Stock Units and shall, when issued, reduce the number of Shares available under Section 5. 
 SECTION 14. PAYMENT OF DIRECTOR’S FEES IN SECURITIES. 
 (a)
Effective Date. No provision of this Section 14 shall be effective unless and until the Board has determined to implement such provision. 
 (b) Elections to Receive NSOs, Restricted Shares or Stock Units. An Outside Director may elect to receive his or her annual retainer payments and/or meeting fees from the Company in the form of
cash, NSOs, Restricted Shares or Stock Units, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Board. Such NSOs, Restricted Shares and Stock Units shall be issued under the Plan. An election under this Section 14 shall be filed with the Company
on the prescribed form. 
 (c) Number and Terms of NSOs, Restricted Shares or Stock Units. The number of NSOs, Restricted
Shares or Stock Units to be granted to Outside Directors in lieu of annual retainers and meeting fees that would otherwise be paid in cash shall be calculated in a manner determined by the Board. The terms of such NSOs, Restricted Shares or Stock
Units shall also be determined by the Board. 
 SECTION 15. LEGAL AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS. 

Shares shall not be issued under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of such Shares complies with (or is exempt from) all applicable
requirements of law, including (without 

  
 - 17 -









 
limitation) the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities laws and regulations and the regulations of any stock exchange on which the
Company’s securities may then be listed, and the Company has obtained the approval or favorable ruling from any governmental agency which the Company determines is necessary or advisable. The Company shall not be liable to a Participant or
other persons as to: (a) the non-issuance or sale of Shares as to which the Company has not obtained from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale
of any Shares under the Plan; and (b) any tax consequences expected, but not realized, by any Participant or other person due to the receipt, exercise or settlement of any Award granted under the Plan. 

SECTION 16. WITHHOLDING TAXES. 
 (a) General. To the extent required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign law, a Participant or his or her successor shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the
satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise in connection with the Plan. The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares or make any cash payment under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied. 

(b) Share Withholding. The Committee may permit a Participant to satisfy all or part of his or her withholding or income tax
obligations by having the Company withhold all or a portion of any Shares that otherwise would be issued to him or her or by surrendering all or a portion of any Shares that he or she previously acquired. Such Shares shall be valued at their Fair
Market Value on the date when taxes otherwise would be withheld in cash. In no event may a Participant have Shares withheld that would otherwise be issued to him or her in excess of the number necessary to satisfy the minimum legally required tax
withholding. 
 SECTION 17. OTHER PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS. 

(a) Transferability. Unless the agreement evidencing an Award (or an amendment thereto authorized by the Committee) expressly
provides otherwise, no Award granted under this Plan, nor any interest in such Award, may be sold, assigned, conveyed, gifted, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred in any manner (prior to the vesting and lapse of any and all restrictions
applicable to Shares issued under such Award), other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; provided, however, that an ISO may be transferred or assigned only to the extent consistent with Section 422 of the Code. Any purported
assignment, transfer or encumbrance in violation of this Section 17(a) shall be void and unenforceable against the Company. 
 (b) Substitution and Assumption of Awards. The Committee may make Awards under the Plan by assumption, substitution or replacement of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock units or
similar awards granted by another entity (including a Parent or Subsidiary), if such assumption, substitution or replacement is in connection with an asset acquisition, stock acquisition, merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving the
Company (and/or its Parent or Subsidiary) and such other entity (and/or its affiliate). Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan (other than the maximum number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan), the terms of such assumed, substituted or
replaced Awards shall be as the Committee, in its discretion, determines is appropriate. 

  
 - 18 -

any combination, applied to either the Company as a whole or to a business unit or Subsidiary, either individually, alternatively or in any combination, and measured either annually or cumulatively over a period of years, on an absolute basis or
relative to a pre-established target, to previous years’ results or to a designated comparison group or index, in each case as specified by the Committee in the Award; 

(ii) The Committee may appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under a Qualifying Performance Criteria to

and

 INPHI CORPORATION 

2010 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
  

			
	Tax Treatment	  	This Option is intended to be an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code or a nonstatutory option, as provided in the Notice of Stock Option Grant.
Even if this Option is designated as an incentive stock option, it shall be deemed to be a nonstatutory option to the extent required by the $100,000 annual limitation under Section 422(d) of the Internal Revenue Code.
		
	Vesting	  	This Option becomes exercisable in installments, as shown in the Notice of Stock Option Grant. This Option will in no event become exercisable for additional Shares after your
Service as an Employee or a Consultant has terminated for any reason.
		
	Term	  	This Option expires in any event at the close of business at Company headquarters on the day before the 10th anniversary of the Grant Date, as shown on the Notice of Stock Option
Grant (fifth anniversary for a more than 10% stockholder as provided under the Plan if this is an incentive stock option). This Option may expire earlier if your Service terminates, as described below.
		
	 Regular

Termination
	  	If your Service terminates for any reason except death or “Total and Permanent Disability” (as defined in the Plan), then this Option will expire at the close of
business at Company headquarters on the date three (3) months after the date your Service terminates (or, if earlier, the Expiration Date). The Company determines when your Service terminates for this purpose and all purposes under the Plan and its
determinations are conclusive and binding on all persons.
		
	Death	  	If your Service terminates because of death, then this Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date 12 months after the date your Service
terminates (or, if earlier, the Expiration Date). During that period of up to 12 months, your estate or heirs may exercise the Option.
		
	Disability	  	 If your Service terminates because of your Total and Permanent Disability, then this Option will expire at the close of business at
Company headquarters on the date 12 months after the date your Service terminates (or, if earlier, the Expiration Date).

		
	Leaves of Absence	  	 For purposes of this Option, your Service does not terminate when you go on a military leave, a sick leave or another bona fide leave
of absence, if the leave was approved by the Company in writing and if continued crediting of Service is required by the terms of the leave or by applicable law. But your Service terminates when the approved leave ends, unless you immediately return
to active work.



  
 - 1 -










					
		
		  	If you go on a leave of absence, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Stock Option Grant may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s leave
of absence policy or the terms of your leave. If you commence working on a part-time basis, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Stock Option Grant may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s part-time work policy or the
terms of an agreement between you and the Company pertaining to your part-time schedule.
		
	Restrictions on Exercise	  	The Company will not permit you to exercise this Option if the issuance of Shares at that time would violate any law or regulation. The inability of the Company to
obtain approval from any regulatory body having authority deemed by the Company to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of the Company stock pursuant to this Option shall relieve the Company of any liability with respect to the non-issuance
or sale of the Company stock as to which such approval shall not have been obtained.
		
	Notice of Exercise	  	When you wish to exercise this Option you must provide a notice of exercise form in accordance with such procedures as are established by the Company and communicated
to you from time to time. Any notice of exercise must specify how many Shares you wish to purchase and how your Shares should be registered. The notice of exercise 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 exercise price for the Shares you are purchasing. Payment may be made in the following
form(s):
			
		  	•	  	Your personal check, a cashier’s check or a money order.
			
		  	•	  	Certificates for Shares that you own, along with any forms needed to effect a transfer of those Shares to the Company. The value of the Shares, determined as of the effective
date of the Option exercise, will be applied to the Option exercise price. Instead of surrendering Shares, you may attest to the ownership of those Shares on a form provided by the Company and have the same number of Shares subtracted from the
Shares issued to you upon exercise of the Option. However, you may not surrender or attest to the ownership of Shares in payment of the exercise price if your action would cause the Company to recognize a compensation expense (or additional
compensation expense) with respect to this Option for financial reporting purposes.
			
		  	•	  	By delivery on a form approved by the Company of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell all or part of the Shares that are issued to you
when you exercise this Option and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount


  
 - 2 -










					
		  		  	sufficient to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to you. The directions must be given by
providing a notice of exercise form approved by the Company.
			
		  	•	  	By delivery on a form approved by the Company of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker or lender approved by the Company to pledge Shares that are issued to you when
you exercise this Option as security for a loan and to deliver to the Company from the loan proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The directions must be given by providing a notice of exercise form
approved by the Company.
			
		  	•	  	Any other form permitted by the Committee in its sole discretion.
		
		  	Notwithstanding the foregoing, payment may not be made in any form that is unlawful, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
		
	 Withholding

Taxes and Stock

Withholding
	  	You will not be allowed to exercise this Option unless you make arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of
this Award or the Option exercise. These arrangements, at the sole discretion of the Company, may include (a) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale
arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), (b) having the Company withhold Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this Option having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount necessary to satisfy
the minimum statutory withholding amount, or (c) any other arrangement approved by the Company. The Fair Market Value of any Shares withheld, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied as a credit against the
withholding taxes. You also authorize the Company, or your actual employer, to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company or your actual employer with respect to this Award from your wages or other cash compensation payable to you by the
Company or your actual employer.
		
	 Restrictions on

Resale
	  	You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This
restriction will apply as long as your Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your Service as the Company may specify.
		
	 Transfer of Option
	  	In general, only you can exercise this Option prior to your death. You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of this Option, other than as
designated by you by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, except as provided below. For instance, you may not use this Option as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this Option will immediately become invalid.
You may in any event dispose of this Option in your will. Regardless of any marital property settlement


  
 - 3 -










			
		 	 agreement, the Company is not obligated to honor a notice of exercise from your former spouse, nor is the Company obligated to
recognize your former spouse’s interest in your Option in any other way.

		
		 	However, if this Option is designated as a nonstatutory stock option in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, then the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer
this Option as a gift to one or more family members. For purposes of this Agreement, “family member” means a child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law,
father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law (including adoptive relationships), any individual sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which one or more of these individuals have more
than 50% of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which you or one or more of these persons control the management of assets, and any entity in which you or one or more of these persons own more than 50% of the voting interest.
		
		 	In addition, if this Option is designated as a nonstatutory stock option in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, then the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to
transfer this option to your spouse or former spouse pursuant to a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights.
		
		 	The Committee will allow you to transfer this Option only if both you and the transferee(s) execute the forms prescribed by the Committee, which include the consent of the
transferee(s) to be bound by this Agreement.
		
	Retention Rights	 	Neither your Option nor this Agreement gives you the right to be employed or retained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company in any capacity. The Company and its
subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time, with or without cause.
		
	 Stockholder

Rights
	 	Your Options carry neither voting rights nor rights to dividends. You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until you have exercised
this Option by giving the required notice to the Company and paying the exercise price. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before you exercise this Option, except as described in the
Plan.
		
	Adjustments	 	In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company Shares, the number of Shares covered by this Option and the exercise price per Share shall be
adjusted pursuant to the Plan.
		
	 Successors and

Assigns
	 	Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Agreement, every term of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors, transferees and assigns.
		
	Notice	 	Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon the earliest of personal

		  	delivery, receipt or the third full day following mailing with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party hereto at the address last known in the Company’s
records or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days’ advance written notice to the other party hereto.
		
	Applicable Law	  	This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to their choice-of-law provisions).
		
	The Plan and Other Agreements	  	The text of the Plan is incorporated in this Agreement by reference. All capitalized terms in the Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Plan. This Agreement
and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Option. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this Option are superseded. This Agreement may be amended by the Committee without your
consent; however, if any such amendment would materially impair your rights or obligations under the Agreement, this Agreement may be amended only by another written agreement, signed by you and the Company.

 INPHI CORPORATION 

2010 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT 
  

			
	Payment For Shares	  	No cash payment is required for the Shares you receive. You are receiving the Shares in consideration for Services rendered by you.
		
	Vesting	  	The Shares that you are receiving will vest in installments, as shown in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award.
		
		  	No additional Shares vest after your Service as an Employee or a Consultant has terminated for any reason.
		
	Shares Restricted	  	Unvested Shares will be considered “Restricted Shares.” Except to the extent permitted by the Committee, you may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose
of Restricted Shares.
		
	Forfeiture	  	If your Service terminates for any reason, then your Shares will be forfeited to the extent that they have not vested before the termination date and do not vest as a result of
termination. This means that the Restricted Shares will immediately revert to the Company. You receive no payment for Restricted Shares that are forfeited. The Company determines when your Service terminates for this purpose and all purposes under
the Plan and its determinations are conclusive and binding on all persons.
		
	Leaves Of Absence	  	For purposes of this Award, your Service does not terminate when you go on a military leave, a sick leave or another bona fide leave of absence, if the leave was approved
by the Company in writing and if continued crediting of Service is required by the terms of the leave or by applicable law. But your Service terminates when the approved leave ends, unless you immediately return to active work.
		
		  	If you go on a leave of absence, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s leave of
absence policy or the terms of your leave. If you commence working on a part-time basis, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award may be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s part-time work policy or the
terms of an agreement between you and the Company pertaining to your part-time schedule.
		
	Stock Certificates	  	The certificates for the Restricted Shares have stamped on them a special legend referring to the forfeiture restrictions. In addition to or in lieu of imposing the legend, the
Company may hold the certificates in escrow. As your vested percentage increases, you may request (at reasonable intervals) that the Company release to you a non-legended certificate for your vested Shares.

	Stockholder Rights	  	During the period of time between the date of grant and the date the Restricted Shares become vested, you shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the
Restricted Shares except for the right to transfer the Restricted Shares, as set forth above. Accordingly, you shall have the right to vote the Restricted Shares and to receive any cash dividends paid with respect to the Restricted
Shares.
		
	Withholding Taxes	  	No Shares will be released to you unless you have made arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay withholding taxes that may be due as a result of this Award or the vesting of
the Shares. These arrangements, at the sole discretion of the Company, may include (a) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company
(on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), (b) having the Company withhold Shares that otherwise would be released to you when they vest having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding
amount, or (c) any other arrangement approved by the Company. The Fair Market Value of any Shares withheld, determined as of the date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes.
You also authorize the Company, or your actual employer, to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company or your actual employer with respect to this Award from your wages or other cash compensation payable to you by the Company or your actual
employer.
		
	Restrictions On Resale	  	You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction will
apply as long as your Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your Service as the Company may specify.
		
	No Retention Rights	  	Neither your Award nor this Agreement gives you the right to be employed or retained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company in any capacity. The Company and its
subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time, with or without cause.
		
	Adjustments	  	In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company Shares, or a merger or a reorganization of the Company, the forfeiture provisions described above
will apply to all new, substitute or additional securities or other assets to which you are entitled by reason of your ownership of the Shares.

	Successors and Assigns	  	Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Agreement, every term of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective

	Notice	  	Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon the earliest of personal delivery, receipt or the third
full day following mailing with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party hereto at the address last known in the Company’s records or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days’ advance written notice

	  	No cash payment is required for the Stock Units you receive. You are receiving the Stock Units in consideration for Services rendered by you.
		
	 Vesting
	  	 The Stock Units that you are receiving will vest in installments, as shown in the Notice of Stock Unit Award.

No additional Stock Units vest after your Service as an Employee or a Consultant has terminated for any reason.

		
	 Forfeiture
	  	 If your Service terminates for any reason, then your Award expires immediately as to the number of Stock Units that have not vested
before the termination date and do not vest as a result of termination.
  

This means that the unvested Stock Units will immediately be cancelled. You receive no payment for Stock Units that are forfeited.

 
 The Company determines when your Service terminates for this purpose and all purposes
under the Plan and its determinations are conclusive and binding on all persons.

		
	 Leaves of Absence
	  	 For purposes of this Award, your Service does not terminate when you go on a military leave, a sick leave or another bona fide
leave of absence, if the leave of absence was approved by the Company in writing and if continued crediting of Service is required by the terms of the leave or by applicable law. But your Service terminates when the approved leave ends, unless you
immediately return to active work.
 If you go on a leave of absence, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Stock Unit Award may
be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s leave of absence policy or the terms of your leave. If you commence working on a part-time basis, then the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Stock Unit Award may be adjusted in accordance
with the Company’s part-time work policy or the terms of an agreement between you and the Company pertaining to your part-time schedule.

		
	 Nature of Stock Units
	  	Your Stock Units are mere bookkeeping entries. They represent only the Company’s unfunded and unsecured promise to issue Shares on a future date. As a holder of Stock Units,
you have no rights other than the rights of a general creditor of the Company.


  
 -1-










			
		
	No Voting Rights or Dividends	  	Your Stock Units carry neither voting rights nor rights to dividends. You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until your Stock
Units are settled by issuing Shares. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before your Shares are issued, except as described in the Plan.
		
	Stock Units Nontransferable	  	You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Stock Units. For instance, you may not use your Stock Units as security for a loan. If you attempt to do
any of these things, your Stock Units will immediately become invalid.
		
	Settlement of Stock Units	  	 Each of your vested Stock Units will be settled when it vests.

 
 At the time of settlement, you will receive one Share for each vested Stock Unit;
provided, however, that no fractional Shares will be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or this Agreement, and the Committee will determine whether cash will be paid in lieu of any fractional Share or whether such fractional Share and any
rights thereto will be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated. In addition, the Shares are issued to you subject to the condition that the issuance of the Shares not violate any law or regulation.

		
	Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding	  	No Shares will be distributed to you unless you have made arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay withholding taxes that may be due as a result of this Award or the
settlement of the Stock Units. These arrangements, at the sole discretion of the Company, may include (a) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale
arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), (b) having the Company withhold Shares that otherwise would be distributed to you when the Stock Units are settled having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount necessary to
satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, or (c) any other arrangement approved by the Company. The Fair Market Value of any Shares withheld, determined as of the date when taxes otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as
a credit against the withholding taxes. You also authorize the Company, or your actual employer, to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company or your actual employer with respect to this Award from your wages or other cash compensation
payable to you by the Company or your actual employer.


  
 -2-










			
	Restrictions on Resale	  	You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction will
apply as long as your Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your Service as the Company may specify.
		
	No Retention Rights	  	Neither your Award nor this Agreement gives you the right to be employed or retained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company in any capacity. The Company and its
subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time, with or without cause.
		
	Adjustments	  	In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company Shares, the number of Stock Units covered by this Award shall be adjusted pursuant to the
Plan.
		
	Successors and Assigns	  	Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Agreement, every term of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors, transferees and assigns.
		
	Notice	  	Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon the earliest of personal delivery, receipt or the third
full day following mailing with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party hereto at the address last known in the Company’s records or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days’ advance written notice
to the other party hereto.
		
	Applicable Law	  	This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to their choice-of-law provisions).
		
	The Plan and Other Agreements	  	The text of the Plan is incorporated in this Agreement by reference. All capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Plan. This Agreement
and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Award. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this Award are superseded. This Agreement may be amended by the Committee without your
consent; however, if any such amendment would materially impair your rights or obligations under the Agreement, this Agreement may be amended only by another written agreement, signed by you and the Company.

 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
  

					
	 Tax Treatment
	  	This Option is not intended to be an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.
		
	Vesting	  	This Option becomes exercisable in installments, as shown in the Notice of Stock Option Grant. This Option will in no event become exercisable for additional Shares
after your Service as an Outside Director has terminated for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, vesting of this Option is subject to acceleration as shown in the Notice of Stock Option Grant
		
	Term	  	This Option expires as shown on the Notice of Stock Option Grant.
		
	Restrictions on Exercise	  	The Company will not permit you to exercise this Option if the issuance of Shares at that time would violate any law or regulation. The inability of the Company to
obtain approval from any regulatory body having authority deemed by the Company to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of the Company stock pursuant to this Option shall relieve the Company of any liability with respect to the non-issuance
or sale of the Company stock as to which such approval shall not have been obtained.
		
	Notice of Exercise	  	When you wish to exercise this Option you must provide a notice of exercise form in accordance with such procedures as are established by the Company and communicated to
you from time to time. Any notice of exercise must specify how many Shares you wish to purchase and how your Shares should be registered. The notice of exercise 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 exercise price for the Shares you are purchasing. Payment may be made in the following
form(s):
			
		  	•	  	Your personal check, a cashier’s check or a money order.
			
		  	•	  	Certificates for Shares that you own, along with any forms needed to effect a transfer of those Shares to the Company. The value of the Shares, determined as of the effective date
of the Option exercise, will be applied to the Option exercise price. Instead of surrendering Shares, you may attest to the ownership of those Shares on a form provided by the Company and have the same number of Shares subtracted from the Shares
issued to you upon exercise of the Option. However, you may not surrender or attest to the ownership of Shares in payment of the exercise price if your action would cause the Company to recognize
a

		  		  	compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to this Option for financial reporting purposes.
			
		  	•	  	By delivery on a form approved by the Company of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell all or part of the Shares that are issued to you
when you exercise this Option and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to you. The directions
must be given by providing a notice of exercise form approved by the Company.
		
		  	Notwithstanding the foregoing, payment may not be made in any form that is unlawful, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
		
	Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding	  	You will not be allowed to exercise this Option unless you make arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of this
Award or the Option exercise. These arrangements, at the sole discretion of the Company, may include (a) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale
arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), (b) having the Company withhold Shares that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this Option having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount necessary to satisfy
the minimum statutory withholding amount, or (c) any other arrangement approved by the Company. The Fair Market Value of any Shares withheld, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied as a credit against the
withholding taxes. You also authorize the Company, or your actual employer, to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company or your actual employer with respect to this Award from your wages or other cash compensation payable to you by the
Company or your actual employer.
		
	Restrictions on Resale	  	You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This
restriction will apply as long as your Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your Service as the Company may specify.
		
	Transfer of Option	  	In general, only you can exercise this Option prior to your death. You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of this Option, other than as
designated by you by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, except as provided below. For instance, you may not use this Option as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this Option will immediately become invalid.
You may in any event dispose of this Option in your will. Regardless of any marital property settlement agreement, the Company is not obligated to honor a notice of exercise from your former spouse, nor is the Company obligated to recognize
your

		  	former spouse’s interest in your Option in any other way.
		
		  	However, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this Option as a gift to one or more family members. For purposes of this Agreement, “family
member” means a child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law (including adoptive
relationships), any individual sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which one or more of these individuals have more than 50% of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which you or one or more of these persons
control the management of assets, and any entity in which you or one or more of these persons own more than 50% of the voting interest.
		
		  	In addition, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow you to transfer this option to your spouse or former spouse pursuant to a domestic relations order in settlement of
marital property rights.
		
		  	The Committee will allow you to transfer this Option only if both you and the transferee(s) execute the forms prescribed by the Committee, which include the consent of the
transferee(s) to be bound by this Agreement.
		
	Retention Rights	  	Neither your Option nor this Agreement gives you the right to be employed or retained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company in any capacity. The Company and its subsidiaries
reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time, with or without cause.
		
	Stockholder Rights	  	Your Options carry neither voting rights nor rights to dividends. You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until you have exercised
this Option by giving the required notice to the Company and paying the exercise price. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before you exercise this Option, except as described in the
Plan.
		
	Adjustments	  	In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company Shares, the number of Shares covered by this Option and the exercise price per Share shall be adjusted
pursuant to the Plan.
		
	Successors and Assigns	  	Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Agreement, every term of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors, transferees and assigns.

full day following mailing with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party hereto at the address last known in the Company’s records or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days’ advance written notice

the Plan and its determinations are conclusive and binding on all persons.
		
	Stock Certificates	  	The certificates for the Restricted Shares have stamped on them a special legend referring to the forfeiture restrictions. In addition to or in lieu of imposing the legend, the
Company may hold the certificates in escrow. As your vested percentage increases, you may request (at reasonable intervals) that the Company release to you a non-legended certificate for your vested Shares.
		
	Stockholder Rights	  	During the period of time between the date of grant and the date the Restricted Shares become vested, you shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Restricted
Shares except for the right to transfer the Restricted Shares, as set forth above. Accordingly, you shall have the right to vote the Restricted Shares and to receive any cash dividends paid with respect to the Restricted Shares.
	Withholding Taxes	  	No Shares will be released to you unless you have made arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay withholding taxes that may be due as a result of this Award or the vesting of
the Shares. These arrangements, at the sole discretion of the Company, may include (a) having the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through
a

		  	mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization), (b) having the Company withhold Shares that otherwise would be released to you when they vest
having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, or (c) any other arrangement approved by the Company. The Fair Market Value of any Shares withheld, determined as of the date when taxes
otherwise would have been withheld in cash, will be applied as a credit against the withholding taxes. You also authorize the Company, or your actual employer, to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company or your actual employer with
respect to this Award from your wages or other cash compensation payable to you by the Company or your actual employer.
		
	Restrictions On Resale	  	You agree not to sell any Shares at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction will
apply as long as your Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your Service as the Company may specify.
		
	No Retention Rights	  	Neither your Award nor this Agreement gives you the right to be employed or retained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company in any capacity. The Company and its subsidiaries
reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time, with or without cause.
		
	Adjustments	  	In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company Shares, or a merger or a reorganization of the Company, the forfeiture provisions described above will
apply to all new, substitute or additional securities or other assets to which you are entitled by reason of your ownership of the Shares.
		
	Successors and Assigns	  	Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Agreement, every term of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors, transferees and assigns.
		
	Notice	  	Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon the earliest of personal delivery, receipt or the third
full day following mailing with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party hereto at the address last known in the Company’s records or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days’ advance written notice
to the other party hereto.
		
	Applicable Law	  	This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to their
