determination (or, if no closing sales price or closing bid was reported on that date, as applicable, on the last trading date such closing sales price or closing bid was reported), as reported in The Wall Street Journal or such other source as the
Administrator deems reliable; 
 (2) If the Common Stock is regularly quoted on an automated quotation system (including the OTC Bulletin
Board) or by a recognized securities dealer, but selling prices are not reported, the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock shall be the mean between the high bid and low asked prices for the Common Stock on the date of determination (or, if

outstanding option. 
 (y) “Subsidiary” means a “subsidiary corporation,” whether now or hereafter existing, as
defined in Section 424(f) of the Code. 
 3. Eligibility. 

(a) General. Any individual who is an Employee on a given Enrollment Date shall be eligible to participate in the Plan for the Offer
Period commencing with such Enrollment Date. No individual who is not an Employee shall be eligible to participate in the Plan. 
 (b)
Limitations on Grant and Accrual. Any provisions of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no Employee shall be granted an option under the Plan (i) if, immediately after the grant, such Employee (taking into account stock owned by
any other person whose stock would be attributed to such Employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) would own stock and/or hold outstanding options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting
power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, or (ii) which permits the Employee’s rights to purchase stock under all employee stock purchase plans of the Company and its Parents or
Subsidiaries to accrue at a rate which exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) worth of stock (determined at the Fair Market Value of the shares at the time such option is granted) for each calendar year in which such option is outstanding at
any time. The determination of the accrual of the right to purchase stock shall be made in accordance with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and the regulations thereunder. In the event that an Employee may not be granted an option under the Plan
because of the foregoing restrictions, the Employee shall be granted an option to purchase the maximum number of shares that would not violate the foregoing restrictions. 

(c) Other Limits on Eligibility. Notwithstanding Subsection (a), above, the following Employees shall not be eligible to
participate in the Plan for any relevant Offer Period: (i) Employees whose customary employment is less than 20 hours per week; (ii) Employees whose 

  
 -4- 








 
customary employment is for not more than 5 months in any calendar year; and (iii) Employees who are subject to rules or laws of a foreign jurisdiction that prohibit or make impractical the
participation of such Employees in the Plan. 
 4. Offer Periods. 

(a) The Plan shall be implemented through overlapping or consecutive Offer Periods until such time as (i) the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall have been purchased or (ii) the Plan shall have been sooner amended or terminated in accordance with Section 19 hereof. The maximum duration of an Offer Period shall be twenty-seven
(27) months. Initially, the Plan shall be implemented through overlapping Offer Periods of twenty-four (24) months’ duration commencing each February 1 and August 1 following the Effective Date (except that the initial Offer
Period shall commence on the Effective Date and shall end on a date determined by the Administrator that shall be no later than twenty-seven (27) months after the Effective Date). 

(b) A Participant shall be granted a separate option for each Offer Period in which he or she participates. The option shall be granted on the
Enrollment Date and shall be automatically exercised in successive installments on the Exercise Dates ending within the Offer Period. 
 (c)
If on the first day of any Purchase Period in an Offer Period in which an Employee is a Participant, the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock is less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Enrollment Date of the Offer Period (after
taking into account any adjustment during the Offer Period pursuant to Section 18(a)), the Offer Period shall be terminated automatically and the Participant shall be enrolled automatically in the new Offer Period which has its first Purchase
Period commencing on that date, provided the Employee is eligible to participate in the Plan on that date and has not elected to terminate participation in the Plan. 

(d) Except as specifically provided herein, the acquisition of Common Stock through participation in the Plan for any Offer Period shall
neither limit nor require the acquisition of Common Stock by a Participant in any subsequent Offer Period. 
 5. Participation. 

(a) An eligible Employee may become a Participant in the Plan by completing a subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions in the
form of Exhibit A to this Plan (or such other form or method (including electronic forms) as the Administrator may designate from time to time) and filing it with the designated payroll office of the Company at least five (5) business days
prior to the Enrollment Date for the Offer Period in which such participation will commence, unless a later time for filing the subscription agreement is set by the Administrator for all eligible Employees with respect to a given Offer Period. 

(b) Payroll deductions for a Participant shall commence with the first partial or full payroll period beginning on the Enrollment Date and
shall end on the last complete payroll period during the Offer Period, unless sooner terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 10. 

  
 -5- 








 6. Payroll Deductions. 

(a) At the time a Participant files a subscription agreement, the Participant shall elect to have payroll deductions made during the Offer
Period in amounts equal to or greater than one percent (1%) but not exceeding ten percent (10%) of the Compensation which the Participant receives during the Offer Period. Prior to April 1, 2006, a Participant could elect to have
payroll deductions made during the Offer Period in amounts up to twenty percent (20%) of the Compensation which the Participant receives during the Offer Period. Such payroll deductions shall be in whole percentages only. 

(b) All payroll deductions made for a Participant shall be credited to the Participant’s account under the Plan and will be withheld in
whole percentages only. A Participant may not make any additional payments into such account. 
 (c) A Participant may discontinue
participation in the Plan as provided in Section 10, or may increase or decrease the rate of payroll deductions during the Offer Period by completing and filing with the Company a change of status notice in the form of Exhibit B to this
Plan (or such other form or method (including electronic forms) as the Administrator may designate from time to time) authorizing an increase or decrease in the payroll deduction rate. Any increase or decrease in the rate of a Participant’s
payroll deductions shall be effective with the first full payroll period commencing five (5) business days after the Company’s receipt of the change of status notice unless the Company elects to process a given change in participation more
quickly. A Participant’s subscription agreement (as modified by any change of status notice) shall remain in effect for successive Offer Periods unless terminated as provided in Section 10. The Administrator shall be authorized to limit
the number of payroll deduction rate changes during any Offer Period. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to
comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(b) herein, a Participant’s payroll deductions shall be decreased to 0%. Payroll deductions shall recommence at the rate provided in such Participant’s subscription
agreement, as amended, at the time when permitted under Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(b) herein, unless such participation is sooner terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 10. 

(e) At the time the option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time any of the Company’s Common Stock issued under the Plan is
disposed of, the participant must make adequate provision for the Company’s federal, state, or other tax withholding obligations, if any, which arise upon the exercise of the option or the disposition of the Common Stock. At any time, the
Company may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the participant’s compensation the amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company any
tax deductions or benefits attributable to sale or other disposition of Common Stock by the Employee. 
 7. Grant of Option. On the
Enrollment Date of each Offer Period, each Participant shall be granted an option to purchase (at the applicable Purchase Price) up to a whole number of shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) determined by dividing $50,000 by the
Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Enrollment Date (subject to any adjustment pursuant to 

  
 -6- 








 
Section 18), and provided that such purchase shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3(b), 6 and 12 hereof. The option shall be exercisable as to 25% of the Option
Shares on each Exercise Date during the Offer Period. Exercise of the option shall occur as provided in Section 8, unless the Participant has withdrawn pursuant to Section 10, and the option, to the extent not exercised, shall expire on
the last day of the Offer Period with respect to which such option was granted. 
 8. Exercise of Option. Unless a Participant
withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 10, below, the Participant’s option for the purchase of shares of Common Stock will be exercised automatically on each Exercise Date, by applying the accumulated payroll deductions in the
Participant’s account to purchase the number of full shares subject to the option by dividing such Participant’s payroll deductions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the Participant’s account as of the Exercise
Date by the applicable Purchase Price. No fractional shares will be purchased; any payroll deductions accumulated in a Participant’s account which are not sufficient to purchase a full share shall be carried over to the next Purchase Period or
Offer Period, whichever applies, or returned to the Participant, if the Participant withdraws from the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amount remaining in a Participant’s account following the purchase of shares on the Exercise Date
due to the application of Section 423(b)(8) of the Code or Section 7, above, shall be returned to the Participant and shall not be carried over to the next Offer Period or Purchase Period. During a Participant’s lifetime, a
Participant’s option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by the Participant. 
 9. Delivery. Upon receipt of a
request from a Participant after each Exercise Date on which a purchase of shares occurs, the Company shall arrange the delivery to such Participant, as promptly as practicable, of a certificate representing the shares purchased upon exercise of the
Participant’s option. The Company may, in its sole discretion, and in compliance with applicable laws, authorize the book entry registration of shares in lieu of issuing certificates. 

10. Withdrawal; Termination of Employment. 

(a) A Participant may either (i) withdraw all but not less than all the payroll deductions credited to the Participant’s account and
not yet used to exercise the Participant’s option under the Plan or (ii) terminate future payroll deductions, but allow accumulated payroll deductions to be used to exercise the Participant’s option under the Plan at any time by
giving written notice to the Company in the form of Exhibit B to this Plan (or such other form or method (including electronic forms) as the Administrator may designate from time to time). If the Participant elects withdrawal alternative
(i) described above, all of the Participant’s payroll deductions credited to the Participant’s account will be paid to such Participant as promptly as practicable after receipt of notice of withdrawal, such Participant’s option
for the Offer Period will be automatically terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of shares will be made during the Offer Period. If the Participant elects withdrawal alternative (ii) described above, no further payroll
deductions for the purchase of shares will be made during the Offer Period, all of the Participant’s payroll deductions credited to the Participant’s account will be applied to the exercise of the Participant’s option on the next
Exercise Date (subject to Sections 3(b), 6, 7 and 12), and after such Exercise Date, such Participant’s option for the Offer Period will be automatically terminated and all remaining accumulated payroll deduction amounts shall be returned
to the Participant. If a Participant 

  
 -7- 








 
withdraws from an Offer Period, payroll deductions will not resume at the beginning of the succeeding Offer Period unless the Participant delivers to the Company a new subscription agreement. A
Participant’s withdrawal from an Offer Period shall not have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan that may be hereafter adopted by the Company or in succeeding Offer Periods. 

(b) With respect to the termination of employment of a Participant whose new Offer Period does not begin until either August 1, 2007 or
February 1, 2008, upon termination of such Participant’s employment relationship (as described in Section 2(k)) at a time more than three (3) months from July 31, 2007 or January 31, 2008, as the case may be, the
payroll deductions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offer Period ending on July 31, 2007 or January 31, 2008, as the case may be, but not yet used to exercise the option will be returned to such Participant or, in the
case of his/her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section 14, and such Participant’s option will be automatically terminated without exercise of any portion of such option. With respect to the termination of employment
of a Participant whose new Offer Period does not begin until either August 1, 2007 or February 1, 2008, upon termination of such Participant’s employment relationship (as described in Section 2(k)) within three (3) months of
July 31, 2007 or January 31, 2008, as the case may be, the payroll deductions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offer Period ending on July 31, 2007 or January 31, 2008, as the case may be, but not yet used
to exercise the option will be applied to the purchase of Common Stock on July 31, 2007 or January 31, 2008, as the case may be, unless the Participant (or in the case of the Participant’s death, the person or persons entitled to the
Participant’s account balance under Section 14) withdraws from the Plan by submitting a change of status notice in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 10. In such a case, no further payroll deductions will be credited
to the Participant’s account following the Participant’s termination of employment and the Participant’s option under the Plan will be automatically terminated after the purchase of Common Stock on July 31, 2007 or
January 31, 2008, as the case may be. If, prior to July 31, 2007 or January 31, 2008, as the case may be, the Designated Parent or Subsidiary by which the Employee is employed shall cease to be a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company,
or if the Employee is transferred to a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Designated Parent or Subsidiary, the Employee shall be deemed to have been terminated for purposes of the Plan. 

(c) With respect to the termination of employment of a Participant whose new Offering Period begins on or after August 1, 2006, upon
termination of such Participant’s employment relationship (as described in Section 2(k)), the payroll deductions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offer Period but not yet used to exercise the option will be returned
to such Participant or, in the case of his/her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section 14, and such Participant’s option will be automatically terminated without exercise of any portion of such option. If, prior to
the last day of the Offer Period, the Designated Parent or Subsidiary by which the Employee is employed shall cease to be a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, or if the Employee is transferred to a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company that is not a
Designated Parent or Subsidiary, the Employee shall be deemed to have been terminated for purposes of the Plan. 
 11. Interest. No
interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions credited to a Participant’s account under the Plan. 

  
 -8- 








 12. Stock. 

(a) The maximum number of shares of Common Stock which shall be made available for sale under the Plan shall be two million five hundred
thousand (2,500,000) shares, subject to adjustment upon changes in capitalization of the Company as provided in Section 18. With respect to any amendment to increase the total number of shares of Common Stock under the Plan, the
Administrator shall have discretion to disallow the purchase of any increased shares of Common Stock for Offer Periods in existence prior to such increase. If the Administrator determines that on a given Exercise Date the number of shares with
respect to which options are to be exercised may exceed (x) the number of shares then available for sale under the Plan or (y) the number of shares available for sale under the Plan on the Enrollment Date(s) of one or more of the Offer
Periods in which such Exercise Date is to occur, the Administrator may make a pro rata allocation of the shares remaining available for purchase on such Enrollment Dates or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable
and as it shall determine to be equitable, and shall either continue all Offer Periods then in effect or terminate any one or more Offer Periods then in effect pursuant to Section 19, below. Any amount remaining in a Participant’s payroll
account following such pro rata allocation shall be returned to the Participant and shall not be carried over to any future Purchase Period or Offer Period, as determined by the Administrator. 

(b) A Participant will have no interest or voting right in shares covered by the Participant’s option until such shares are actually
purchased on the Participant’s behalf in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Plan. No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date of such purchase. 

(c) Shares to be delivered to a Participant under the Plan will be registered in the name of the Participant or in the name of the Participant
and his or her spouse as designated in the Participant’s subscription agreement. 
 13. Administration. The Plan shall be
administered by the Administrator which shall have full and exclusive discretionary authority to construe, interpret and apply the terms of the Plan, to determine eligibility and to adjudicate all disputed claims filed under the Plan. Every finding,
decision and determination made by the Administrator shall, to the full extent permitted by Applicable Law, be final and binding upon all persons. 

14. Designation of Beneficiary. 

(a) Each Participant will file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the
Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death. If a Participant is married and the designated beneficiary is not the spouse, spousal consent shall be required for such designation to be effective. 

(b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant (and the Participant’s spouse, if any) at any time by written
notice. In the event of the death of a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living (or in existence) at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company shall deliver such shares and/or cash
to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has 

  
 -9- 








 
been appointed (to the knowledge of the Administrator), the Administrator shall deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse (or domestic partner, as determined by the Administrator) of the
Participant, or if no spouse (or domestic partner) is known to the Administrator, then to the issue of the Participant, such distribution to be made per stirpes (by right of representation), or if no issue are known to the Administrator, then to the
heirs at law of the Participant determined in accordance with Section 27. 
 15. Transferability. No payroll deductions credited
to a Participant’s account, options granted hereunder, or any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive shares under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the
laws of descent and distribution, or as provided in Section 14 hereof) by the Participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect, except that the Administrator may, in its sole discretion,
treat such act as an election to withdraw funds from an Offer Period in accordance with Section 10. 
 16. Use of Funds. All
payroll deductions received or held by the Company under the Plan may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions or hold them exclusively for the benefit of
Participants. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company are subject to the claims of the Company’s general creditors, and no Participant shall have rights greater than those of any unsecured creditor of the Company. 

17. Reports. Individual accounts will be maintained for each Participant in the Plan. Statements of account will be given to
Participants at least annually, which statements will set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the Purchase Price, the number of shares purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any. 

18. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization; Corporate Transactions. 

(a) Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the Reserves, the
Purchase Price, the maximum number of shares that may be purchased in any Offer Period or Purchase Period, as well as any other terms that the Administrator determines require adjustment shall be proportionately adjusted for (i) any increase or
decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, (ii) any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares
of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, or (iii) as the Administrator may determine in its discretion, any other transaction with respect to Common Stock to which Section 424(a) of the Code applies;
provided, however that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator and its determination shall be
final, binding and conclusive. Except as the Administrator determines, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason hereof shall be
made with respect to, the Reserves and the Purchase Price. 

  
 -10- 








 (b) Corporate Transactions. In the event of a proposed Corporate Transaction, each option
under the Plan shall be assumed by such successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation, unless the Administrator, in the exercise of its sole discretion and in lieu of such assumption, determines to shorten the Offer
Period then in progress by setting a new Exercise Date (the “New Exercise Date”). If the Administrator shortens the Offer Period then in progress in lieu of assumption in the event of a Corporate Transaction, the Administrator shall notify
each Participant in writing at least ten (10) business days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that either: 

(1) the Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has
withdrawn from the Offer Period as provided in Section 10; or 
 (2) the Company shall pay to the Participant on the New Exercise Date
an amount in cash, cash equivalents, or property as determined by the Administrator that is equal to the difference in the Fair Market Value of the shares subject to the option and the Purchase Price due had the Participant’s option been
exercised automatically under Subsection (b)(i) above. 
 For purposes of this Subsection, an option granted under the Plan shall be
deemed to be assumed if, in connection with the Corporate Transaction, the option is replaced with a comparable option with respect to shares of capital stock of the successor corporation or Parent thereof. The determination of option comparability
shall be made by the Administrator prior to the Corporate Transaction and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons. 

19. Amendment or Termination. 

(a) The Administrator may at any time and for any reason terminate or amend the Plan. Except as provided in Section 18, no such
termination can affect options previously granted, provided that the Plan or any one or more Offer Periods may be terminated by the Administrator on any Exercise Date or by the Administrator establishing a new Exercise Date with respect to any Offer
Period and/or any Purchase Period then in progress if the Administrator determines that the termination of the Plan or such one or more Offer Periods is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Except as provided in Section 18
and this Section 19, no amendment may make any change in any option theretofore granted which adversely affects the rights of any Participant without the consent of affected Participants. To the extent necessary to comply with Section 423
of the Code (or any successor rule or provision or any other Applicable Law), the Company shall obtain stockholder approval in such a manner and to such a degree as required. 

(b) Without stockholder consent and without regard to whether any Participant rights may be considered to have been “adversely
affected,” the Administrator shall be entitled to limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during Offer Periods, change the length of Purchase Periods within any Offer Period, determine the length of any future Offer
Period, determine whether future Offer Periods shall be consecutive or overlapping, establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars, establish additional terms, conditions, rules or procedures to
accommodate the rules or laws of applicable foreign jurisdictions, permit payroll withholding in excess of the amount designated by a Participant 

  
 -11- 








 
in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company’s processing of properly completed withholding elections, establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and
crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each Participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the Participant’s Compensation, and establish such other limitations or procedures as
the Administrator determines in its sole discretion advisable and which are consistent with the Plan. 
 20. Notices. All notices or
other communications by a Participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Administrator at the location, or by the person, designated by the
Administrator for the receipt thereof. 
 21. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Shares shall not be issued with respect to an
option unless the exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. As
a condition to the exercise of an option, the Company may require the Participant to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or
distribute such shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of the aforementioned Applicable Laws. 

22. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of its adoption by the Board or its approval by the
stockholders of the Company. It shall continue in effect for a term of twenty (20) years unless sooner terminated under Section 19. 

23. Stockholder Approval. The Plan is effective as of the date it is adopted by the Board. The Plan shall be submitted to the
stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is adopted for approval to obtain the benefits of Section 423 of the Code. However, the Plan shall not be conditioned upon such approval. 

24. No Employment Rights. The Plan does not, directly or indirectly, create any right for the benefit of any employee or class of
employees to purchase any shares under the Plan, or create in any employee or class of employees any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Company or a Designated Parent or Subsidiary, and it shall not be deemed to interfere in any
way with such employer’s right to terminate, or otherwise modify, an employee’s employment at any time. 
 25. No Effect on
Retirement and Other Benefit Plans. Except as specifically provided in a retirement or other benefit plan of the Company or a Designated Parent or Subsidiary, participation in the Plan shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of computing
benefits or contributions under any retirement plan of the Company or a Designated Parent or Subsidiary, and shall not affect any benefits under any other benefit plan of any kind or any benefit plan subsequently instituted under which the
availability or amount of benefits is related to level of compensation. The Plan is not a “Retirement Plan” or “Welfare Plan” under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

 26. Effect of Plan. The provisions of the Plan shall, in accordance with its terms, be
binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, all successors of each Participant, including, without limitation, such Participant’s estate and the executors, administrators or trustees thereof, heirs and legatees, and any receiver, trustee in
bankruptcy or representative of creditors of such Participant. 
 27. Governmental Regulations. The Company’s obligation to sell
and deliver Common Stock under this Plan is subject to listing on an established stock exchange or quotation on a national market system or an over the counter market (to the extent the Common Stock is then so listed or quoted) and the approval of
all governmental authorities required in connection with the authorization, issuance, or sale of such stock. 
 28. Source of Shares.
Shares may be issued upon exercise of an option from authorized but unissued Common Stock, from shares held in the treasury of the Company, or from any other proper source. 

29. Notification Upon Sale of Shares. Each employee agrees, by participating in the Plan, to promptly give notice to the Company of any
disposition of shares purchased under the Plan where such disposition occurs within two years after the date of the grant of the option pursuant to which such shares were purchased or within one year of the date of exercise of such option pursuant
to which such shares were purchased. 
 30. Governing Law. The Plan is to be construed in accordance with and governed by the
internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the internal laws of the State of Delaware to the rights and duties of the parties,
except to the extent the internal laws of the State of Delaware are superseded by the laws of the United States. Should any provision of the Plan be determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions shall nevertheless
remain effective and shall remain enforceable. 
 31. Dispute Resolution. The provisions of this Section 31 (and as restated in
the Subscription Agreement) shall be the exclusive means of resolving disputes arising out of or relating to the Plan. The Company and the Participant, or their respective successors (the “parties”), shall attempt in good faith to resolve
any disputes arising out of or relating to the Plan by negotiation between individuals who have authority to settle the controversy. Negotiations shall be commenced by either party by notice of a written statement of the party’s position and
the name and title of the individual who will represent the party. Within thirty (30) days of the written notification, the parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary,
to resolve the dispute. If the dispute has not been resolved by negotiation, the parties agree that any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Plan shall be brought in the United States District Court for the Northern District
of California (or should such court lack jurisdiction to hear such action, suit or proceeding, in a California state court in the County of San Francisco) and that the parties shall submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The parties irrevocably
waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection the party may have to the laying of venue for any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such court. THE PARTIES ALSO EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY HAVE OR MAY HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL OF
ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. If any one or more provisions of this Section 31 shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, it is the specific intent of the parties that such provisions shall be modified to the minimum extent
necessary to make it or its application valid and enforceable.

 32. Plan Approval. The Plan was initially approved by the Board and the stockholders of
the Company in 2002. Effective August 1, 2004, the Board approved an amendment and restatement of the Plan, which amendment and restatement was not subject to stockholder approval. On March 29, 2006, the Board approved an amendment and
restatement of the Plan to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan from 1,000,000 to 1,500,000 Shares, which amendment was subsequently approved by stockholders. Also on March 29, 2006, the Board approved the
following amendments: (a) for Offer Periods commencing on or after August 1, 2006, decrease the maximum payroll withholding from 20% to 10% of Compensation, and (b) make certain other administrative changes, which amendments were
not subject to stockholder approval. In March 2009, the Board approved an amendment and restatement of the Plan to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan from 1,500,000 to 2,150,000 Shares, which amendment was
subsequently approved by stockholders. In March 2015, the Board approved an amendment and restatement of the Plan to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan from 2,150,000 to 2,500,000 Shares, which amendment was
subsequently approved by stockholders.
