 VAROLII CORPORATION 
 2007 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 
 As Adopted
                    , 2007 
  

	 	1.	Establishment of Plan. 

 Varolii Corporation (the
“Company”) proposes to grant options for purchase of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) to eligible employees of the Company and its Participating Subsidiaries (as hereinafter
defined) pursuant to this 2007 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (this “Plan”). For the purposes of this Plan, “Parent Corporation” and “Subsidiary” shall have the same meanings as “parent
corporation” and “subsidiary corporation” in Sections 424(e) and 424(f), respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). “Participating Subsidiaries” are Parent
Corporations or Subsidiaries that the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) designates from time to time as corporations that shall participate in this Plan. The Company intends this Plan to qualify as an
“employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code (including any amendments to or replacements of such Section), although the Company makes no undertaking or representation to maintain such qualification. Any term not
expressly defined in this Plan but defined for purposes of Section 423 of the Code shall have the same definition herein. 
  

	 	2.	Number of Shares. 

 The total number of shares of
Common Stock initially reserved and available for issuance pursuant to this Plan shall be 2,500,000 (on a pre-split basis) (the “Share Limit”), subject to adjustments effected in accordance with Section 15 of this Plan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to Section 15, the Share Limit shall automatically increase on January 1, 2009 and January 1 of each year thereafter until and including January 1, 2017 (unless the Plan is terminated
earlier in accordance with the provisions hereof) by the “Annual Increase” which shall consist of a number of shares equal to the lesser of (i) one percent (1 %) of the number of shares of all classes of common stock of
the Company outstanding on that date, or (ii) a lesser number determined by the Committee, (as hereinafter defined) prior to such January 1, provided, however, that the total number of shares available for issuance under the Plan shall not
exceed 16,000,000 (on a pre-split basis). Shares issued under this Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares reacquired in private transactions or open market purchases, but all shares issued under
this Plan shall be counted against the Share Limit. 
  

	 	3.	Purpose. 

 The purpose of this Plan is to provide
eligible employees of the Company and Participating Subsidiaries with a convenient means of acquiring an equity interest in the Company through payroll deductions, to enhance such employees’ sense of participation in the affairs of the Company
and Participating Subsidiaries, and to provide an incentive for continued 








 
employment. For the purposes of this Plan, “employee” shall mean any individual who is an employee of the Company or a Participating Subsidiary.
Whether an individual qualifies as an employee shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. The Committee shall be guided by the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-7 and Section 3401(c) of the Code and the
Treasury Regulations thereunder, with the intent that the Plan cover all “employees” within the meaning of those provisions other than those who are not eligible to participate in the Plan, provided, however, that any determinations
regarding whether an individual is an “employee” shall be prospective only, unless otherwise determined by the Committee (as hereinafter defined). Unless the Committee makes a contrary determination, the employees of the Company shall, for
all purposes of this Plan, be those individuals who are carried as employees of the Company or a Participating Subsidiary for regular payroll purposes or are on a leave of absence for not more than 90 days. Any inquiries regarding eligibility to
participate in the Plan shall be directed to the Committee, whose decision shall be final. 
  

	 	4.	Administration. 

 This Plan shall be administered by
the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”). The Committee may further delegate its responsibilities to any employee of the Company or any Participating Subsidiary. Subject to the provisions of this Plan
and the limitations of Section 423 of the Code or any successor provision in the Code, all questions of interpretation or application of this Plan shall be determined by the Committee and its decisions shall be final and binding upon all
participants. Members of the Committee shall receive no compensation for their services in connection with the administration of this Plan, other than standard fees as established from time to time by the Board for services rendered by Board members
serving on Board committees. All expenses incurred in connection with the administration of this Plan shall be paid by the Company. 
  

	 	5.	Eligibility. 

 Any employee of the Company or the
Participating Subsidiaries is eligible to participate in an Offering Period (as hereinafter defined) under this Plan except the following: 
 (a) employees who are not employed by the Company or a Participating Subsidiary prior to the beginning of such Offering Period or prior to such other time period as specified by the Committee, except that employees who are employed on the
effective date of the registration statement on Form 10 filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”) registering the initial public offering of the Company’s Common Stock shall be eligible to participate in the first Offering Period under the Plan; 
 (b) employees who are customarily employed for twenty (20) hours or less per week; 
 (c) employees who are customarily employed for five (5) months or less in a calendar year; 
 (d) employees who, together with any other person whose stock would be attributed to such employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code, own stock
or hold options to 

  

 2 








 
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 any of its
Participating Subsidiaries or who, as a result of being granted an option under this Plan with respect to such Offering Period, would own stock or hold 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 any of its Participating Subsidiaries; 
 (e) individuals who provide services to
the Company or any of its Participating Subsidiaries as independent contractors who are reclassified as common law employees for any reason except for federal income and employment tax purposes; and 
 (f) employees who reside in countries for whom such employees’ participation in the Plan would result in a violation under any corporate or
securities laws of such country of residence. 
  

	 	6.	Offering Dates. 

 The offering periods of this Plan
(each, an “Offering Period”) shall be of six (6) months duration commencing on February 1 and August 1 of each year and ending on July 31 and January 31 of each year; provided, however, that the first
such Offering Period shall commence on the first business day on which price quotations for the Company’s Common Stock are available on the Nasdaq Global Market or Nasdaq Global Select Market (the “First Offering Date”)
and shall end on July 31, 2008 (the “First Offering Period”). The First Offering Period may be greater or less than six (6) months as determined by the Committee. The first business day of each Offering Period is
referred to as the “Offering Date.” The last business day of each Offering Period is referred to as the “Purchase Date.” The Committee shall have the power to change the Offering Dates, the Purchase
Dates and the duration of Offering Periods without stockholder approval if such change is announced prior to the relevant Offering Period or prior to such other time period as specified by the Committee. 
  

	 	7.	Participation in this Plan. 

 Eligible employees may
become participants in an Offering Period under this Plan on the Offering Date, after satisfying the eligibility requirements, by delivering a subscription agreement to the Company prior to such Offering Date, or such other time period as specified
by the Committee, provided, however, that all eligible employees employed on or before the First Offering Date shall be automatically enrolled in the First Offering Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) an eligible employee may elect to
decrease the number of shares of Common Stock that such employee would otherwise be permitted to purchase pursuant to Section 8 below for the First Offering Period and/or purchase shares of Common Stock for the First Offering Period through
payroll deductions by delivering a subscription agreement to the Company within thirty (30) days following the First Offering Date after the effective date of a registration statement on Form 10, and (ii) the Committee may set a later time
for filing the subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions for all eligible employees with respect to a given Offering Period. Except as provided above with respect to the First Offering Period, an eligible employee who does not deliver a
subscription agreement to the Company after becoming eligible to participate in an Offering Period shall not participate in that Offering Period or any subsequent Offering 

  

 3 








 
Period unless such employee enrolls in this Plan by filing a subscription agreement with the Company prior to such Offering Period, or such other time period
as specified by the Committee. Once an employee becomes a participant in an Offering Period by filing a subscription agreement, such employee shall automatically participate in the Offering Period commencing immediately following the last day of the
prior Offering Period unless the employee withdraws or is deemed to withdraw from this Plan or terminates further participation in the Offering Period as set forth in Section 12 below. Such participant is not required to file any additional
subscription agreement in order to continue participation in this Plan. 
  

	 	8.	Grant of Option on Enrollment. 

 Enrollment by an
eligible employee in this Plan with respect to an Offering Period shall constitute the grant (as of the Offering Date) by the Company to such employee of an option to purchase on the Purchase Date up to that number of shares of Common Stock
determined by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount accumulated in such employee’s payroll deduction account during such Offering Period and the denominator of which is the lower of (i) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair
market value of a share of the Company’s Common Stock on the Offering Date (but in no event less than the par value of a share Common Stock), or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the
Purchase Date (but in no event less than the par value of a share of the Company’s Common Stock), provided, however, that for the First Offering Period the numerator shall be twenty percent (20%) of the eligible employee’s
compensation for such Offering Period, unless the employee otherwise elects to decrease the percentage of such employee’s compensation, and provided, further, that the number of shares of Common Stock subject to any option granted pursuant to
this Plan shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the maximum number of shares set by the Committee pursuant to Section 10(c) below with respect to the applicable Purchase Date, or (y) the maximum number of shares which may be purchased
pursuant to Section 10(b) below with respect to the applicable Purchase Date. The fair market value of a share of the Company’s Common Stock shall be determined as provided in Section 9 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event of a change in generally accepted accounting principles which would adversely affect the accounting treatment applicable to any current Offering Period, the Committee may make such changes to the number of Shares purchased at the end of the
Offering Period or the purchase price paid as are allowable under generally accepted accounting principles and as it deems necessary in the sole discretion of the Committee to avoid or minimize adverse accounting consequences. 
  

	 	9.	Purchase Price. 

 The purchase price per share at
which a share of Common Stock shall be sold in any Offering Period shall be eighty-five percent (85%) of the lesser of: 
 (a) the fair
market value on the Offering Date; or 
 (b) the fair market value on the Purchase Date. 
 For the purposes of this Plan, the term “fair market value” means, as of any date, the value of a share of the Company’s
Common Stock determined as follows: 
  

 4 








 (x) if such Common Stock is publicly traded and is then listed on a national securities exchange, its
closing price on the date of determination on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading as reported in The Wall Street Journal or a similar publication; or 
 (y) if such Common Stock is publicly traded but is not listed or admitted to trading on a national securities exchange, the average of the closing bid
and asked prices on the date of determination as reported in The Wall Street Journal or a similar publication. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, for purposes of the First Offering Date, fair market value shall be the price per share at which shares of the Company’s Common Stock are initially offered for sale to the public by the Company’s underwriters in the initial
public offering of the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act. 
  

	 	10.	Payment Of Purchase Price; Changes In Payroll Deductions; Issuance Of Shares. 

 (a) The purchase price of the shares is accumulated by regular payroll deductions made during each Offering Period, provided, however, that for the First Offering Period, the purchase price of the shares shall be paid
by the eligible employee in cash on the Purchase Date for the First Offering Period unless the eligible employee elects to purchase such shares through payroll deductions, after the filing of an effective Form 10 registration statement pursuant to
the second sentence of Section 7 above, within thirty (30) days following the First Offering Period. The deductions are made as a percentage of the participant’s compensation in one percent (1%) increments, not less than one
percent (1%), nor greater than twenty percent (20%), or such lower limit set by the Committee. Compensation shall mean base salary, provided that for purposes of determining a participant’s eligible compensation any election by such participant
to reduce his or her base salary under Sections 125 or 401(k) of the Code shall be treated as if the participant did not make such election. Payroll deductions shall commence on the first payday of the Offering Period and shall continue to the end
of the Offering Period unless sooner altered or terminated as provided in this Plan. 
 (b) A participant may change the rate of payroll
deductions during an Offering Period by filing with the Company a new authorization for payroll deductions, in which case the new rate shall become effective for the next payroll period commencing after the Company’s receipt of the
authorization and shall continue for the remainder of the Offering Period unless changed as described below. Such change in the rate of payroll deductions may be made at any time during an Offering Period, but not more than one (1) change may
be made effective during any Offering Period. A participant may increase or decrease the rate of payroll deductions for any subsequent Offering Period by filing with the Company a new authorization for payroll deductions prior to the beginning of
such Offering Period, or such other time period as specified by the Committee. 
 (c) A participant may reduce his or her payroll deduction
percentage to zero during an Offering Period by filing with the Company a request for cessation of payroll deductions. Such reduction shall be effective beginning with the next payroll period after the 

  

 5 








 
Company’s receipt of the request and no further payroll deductions shall be made for the duration of the Offering Period. Payroll deductions credited to
the participant’s account prior to the effective date of the request shall be used to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company in accordance with Section (e) below. A participant may not resume making payroll deductions during the
Offering Period in which he or she reduced his or her payroll deductions to zero. 
 (d) All payroll deductions made for a participant are
credited to his or her account under this Plan and are deposited with the general funds of the Company. No interest accrues on the payroll deductions. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company may be used by the Company for any
corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions. 
 (e) On each Purchase Date, for so long as
this Plan remains in effect and provided that the participant has not submitted a signed and completed withdrawal form before that date, which notifies the Company that the participant wishes to withdraw from that Offering Period under this Plan and
have all payroll deductions accumulated in the account maintained on behalf of the participant, as of that date returned to the participant, the Company shall apply the funds then in the participant’s account to the purchase of whole shares of
Common Stock reserved under the option granted to such participant with respect to the Offering Period to the extent that such option is exercisable on the Purchase Date. The purchase price per share shall be as specified in Section 9 of this
Plan. Any cash remaining in a participant’s account after such purchase of shares shall be refunded to such participant in cash, without interest, provided, however, that any amount remaining in such participant’s account on a Purchase
Date which is less than the amount necessary to purchase a full share of Common Stock shall be carried forward, without interest, into the next Offering Period. In the event that this Plan has been oversubscribed, all funds not used to purchase
shares on the Purchase Date shall be returned to the participant, without interest. No Common Stock shall be purchased on a Purchase Date on behalf of any employee whose participation in this Plan has terminated prior to such Purchase Date.

 (f) As soon as practicable after the Purchase Date, the Company shall issue shares for the participant’s benefit representing the
shares purchased upon exercise of his or her option. 
 (g) During a participant’s lifetime, his or her option to purchase shares
hereunder is exercisable only by him or her. The participant shall have no interest or voting rights in shares covered by his or her option until such option has been exercised and shares have been issued to the participant. 
  

	 	11.	Limitations on Shares to be Purchased. 

 (a) No
participant shall be entitled to purchase stock under this Plan at a rate which, when aggregated with his or her rights to purchase stock under all other employee stock purchase plans of the Company or any Subsidiary, exceeds $25,000 in fair market
value, determined as of the Offering Date (or such other limit as may be imposed by the Code) for each calendar year in which the employee participates in this Plan. The Company shall have the authority to take all necessary action, including but
not limited to, suspending the payroll deductions of any participant, in order to ensure compliance with this Section. 
  

 6 








 (b) No participant shall be entitled to purchase more than the Maximum Share Amount (as defined below) on
any single Purchase Date. Prior to the commencement of any Offering Period or prior to such time period as specified by the Committee, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, set a maximum number of shares which may be purchased by any employee
at any single Purchase Date (hereinafter the “Maximum Share Amount”). The Maximum Share Amount shall be 25,000 shares (on a pre-split basis). If a new Maximum Share Amount is set, then all participants must be notified of
such Maximum Share Amount prior to the commencement of the next Offering Period. The Maximum Share Amount shall continue to apply with respect to all succeeding Purchase Dates and Offering Periods unless revised by the Committee as set forth above.

 (c) If the number of shares to be purchased on a Purchase Date by all employees participating in this Plan exceeds the number of shares
then available for issuance under this Plan, then the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as shall be reasonably practicable and as the Committee shall determine to be equitable. In such event, the
Company shall give written notice of such reduction of the number of shares to be purchased under a participant’s option to each participant affected. 
 (d) Any payroll deductions accumulated in a participant’s account which are not used to purchase stock due to the limitations in this Section 11 shall be returned to the participant as soon as practicable
after the end of the applicable Offering Period, without interest. 
  

	 	12.	Withdrawal. 

 (a) Each participant may withdraw from
an Offering Period under this Plan by signing and delivering to the Company a written notice to that effect on a form provided for such purpose. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of an Offering Period, or such other time
period as specified by the Committee. 
 (b) Upon withdrawal from this Plan, the accumulated payroll deductions shall be returned to the
withdrawn participant, without interest, and his or her interest in this Plan shall terminate. In the event a participant voluntarily elects to withdraw from this Plan, he or she may not resume his or her participation in this Plan during the same
Offering Period, but he or she may participate in any Offering Period under this Plan which commences on a date subsequent to such withdrawal by filing a new authorization for payroll deductions in the same manner as set forth in Section 7
above for initial participation in this Plan. 
  

	 	13.	Termination of Employment. 

 Termination of a
participant’s employment for any reason, including retirement, death or the failure of a participant to remain an eligible employee of the Company or of a Participating Subsidiary, shall immediately terminate his or her participation in this
Plan. In such event, the payroll deductions credited to the participant’s account shall be returned to him or her or, in the case of his or her death, to his or her legal representative, without interest. For purposes of this Section 13,
an employee shall not be deemed to have terminated employment or failed to remain 

  

 7 








 
in the continuous employ of the Company or of a Participating Subsidiary in the case of sick leave, military leave, or any other leave of absence approved by
the Board, provided, however that such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days or reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute. 
  

	 	14.	Return of Payroll Deductions. 

 In the event a
participant’s interest in this Plan is terminated by withdrawal, termination of employment or otherwise, or in the event this Plan is terminated by the Board, the Company shall deliver to the participant all payroll deductions credited to such
participant’s account. No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions of a participant in this Plan. 
  

	 	15.	Capital Changes. 

 Subject to any required action by
the stockholders of the Company, the number and type of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under this Plan which has not yet been exercised and the number and type of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under
this Plan, including the Annual Increase, but have not yet been placed under option (collectively, the “Reserves”), as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each option under this Plan which has not yet been
exercised, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company resulting from a stock split or the payment of a stock dividend (but only on the Common Stock),
any other increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of any consideration by the Company or other change in the corporate structure or capitalization affecting the Company’s
present Common Stock, 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 Committee, whose
determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issue by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by
reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an option. 
 In the event of the
proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Offering Period shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Committee. The Committee may, in the exercise of its sole
discretion in such instances, declare that this Plan shall terminate as of a date fixed by the Committee and give each participant the right to purchase shares under this Plan prior to such termination. In the event of (i) a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation (other than a merger or consolidation with a wholly-owned subsidiary, a reincorporation of the Company in a different jurisdiction, or other transaction in which there is no
substantial change in the stockholders of the Company or their relative stock holdings and the options under this Plan are assumed, converted or replaced by the successor corporation, which assumption shall be binding on all participants),
(ii) a merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but after which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger (other than any stockholder that merges, or which owns or controls another corporation that merges,
with the Company in such merger) cease to own their shares or other equity interest in the Company, (iii)

  

 8 








 
the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (iv) the acquisition, sale, or transfer of more than 50% of the outstanding shares
of the Company by tender offer or similar transaction (a “Change of Control”), each outstanding option will be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the
successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the option, the Offering Period with respect to which such option relates will be shortened by setting a new Purchase Date (the “New
Purchase Date”) and will end on the New Purchase Date. The New Purchase Date will occur before the date of the Company’s proposed Change of Control. The Administrator will notify each participant in writing prior to the New
Purchase Date that the Purchase Date for the participant’s option has been changed to the New Purchase Date and that the participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Purchase Date, unless prior to such date the
Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 12 hereof. 
 The Committee may, if it so determines in the
exercise of its sole discretion, also make provision for adjusting the Reserves, as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each outstanding option, in the event that the Company effects one or more reorganizations, recapitalizations,
rights offerings or other increases or reductions of shares of its outstanding Common Stock, or in the event of the Company being consolidated with or merged into any other corporation. 
  

	 	16.	Nonassignability. 

 Neither payroll deductions
credited to a participant’s account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive shares under this Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by shall, the laws of descent
and distribution or as provided in Section 23 below) by the participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be void and without effect. 
  

	 	17.	Reports. 

 Individual accounts shall be maintained
for each participant in this Plan. Each participant shall receive, as soon as practicable after the end of each Offering Period, a report of his or her account setting forth the total payroll deductions accumulated, the number of shares purchased,
the per share price thereof and the remaining cash balance, if any, carried forward to the next Offering Period. 
  

	 	18.	Notice of Disposition. 

 Each participant shall
notify the Company in writing if the participant disposes of any of the shares purchased in any Offering Period pursuant to this Plan if such disposition occurs within two (2) years from the Offering Date or within one (1) year from the
Purchase Date on which such shares were purchased (the “Notice Period”). The Company may, at any time during the Notice Period, place a legend or legends on any certificate representing shares acquired pursuant to this Plan
requesting the Company’s transfer agent to notify the Company of any transfer of the shares. The obligation of the participant to provide such notice shall continue notwithstanding the placement of any such legend on the certificates.

  

 9 









	 	19.	No Rights to Continued Employment. 

 Neither this
Plan nor the grant of any option hereunder shall confer any right on any employee to remain in the employ of the Company or any Participating Subsidiary, or restrict the right of the Company or any Participating Subsidiary to terminate such
employee’s employment. 
  

	 	20.	Equal Rights And Privileges. 

 All eligible
employees shall have equal rights and privileges with respect to this Plan so that this Plan qualifies as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 or any successor provision of the Code and the related
regulations. Any provision of this Plan which is inconsistent with Section 423 or any successor provision of the Code shall, without further act or amendment by the Company, the Committee or the Board, be reformed to comply with the
requirements of Section 423. This Section 20 shall take precedence over all other provisions in this Plan. 
  

	 	21.	Notices. 

 All notices or other communications by a
participant to the Company under or in connection with this Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

  

	 	22.	Term; Stockholder Approval. 

 After this Plan is
adopted by the Board, this Plan shall become effective on the First Offering Date (as defined above). This Plan shall be approved by the stockholders of the Company, in any manner permitted by applicable corporate law, within twelve (12) months
before or after the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. No purchase of shares pursuant to this Plan shall occur prior to such stockholder approval. This Plan shall continue until the earlier to occur of (a) termination of this Plan by the
Board (which termination may be effected by the Board at any time), (b) issuance of all of the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under this Plan, or (c) ten (10) years from the adoption of this Plan by the Board.

  

	 	23.	Designation of Beneficiary. 

 (a) A participant may
file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant’s account under this Plan in the event of such participant’s death subsequent to the end of an Offering Period but prior to
delivery to him of such shares and cash. In addition, a participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the participant’s account under this Plan in the event of such participant’s death prior to
a Purchase Date. 
 (b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the participant 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 this Plan who is living at the time of such participant’s death, the Company shall deliver such shares or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of
the participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the 

  

 10 








 
Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the participant, or
if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate. 
  

	 	24.	Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares; Limitation on Sale 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 provisions of law, domestic or
foreign, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the shares may
then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. 
  

	 	25.	Applicable Law. 

 The Plan shall be governed by the
substantive laws (excluding the conflict of laws rules) of the State of Delaware. 
  

	 	26.	Amendment or Termination. 

 The Board may at any
time amend, terminate or extend the term of this Plan, except that any such termination cannot affect options previously granted under this Plan, nor may any amendment make any change in an option previously granted which would adversely affect the
right of any participant, nor may any amendment be made without approval of the stockholders of the Company obtained in accordance with Section 22 above within twelve (12) months of the adoption of such amendment (or earlier if required by
Section 22) if such amendment would: 
 (a) increase the number of shares that may be issued under this Plan; or 
 (b) change the designation of the employees (or class of employees) eligible for participation in this Plan. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may make such amendments to the Plan as the Board determines to be advisable, including changes with respect to
any current Offering Period, if the continuation of the Plan or any Offering Period would result in financial accounting treatment for the Plan that is different from the financial accounting treatment in effect on the date this Plan is adopted by
the Board.
