5.  Stock Options:  The Company shall award Mr. Asher 30,000 stock options to be
    100%  vested as of the date of Board  approval,  September  10,  2009 at the
    market price on the approval  date,  of $3.21 per share.  The option must be
    exercised within five (5) years of vesting or it expires and:

         The Company  shall award Mr. Asher  130,000  shares of PHAZAR
         CORP  stock at the  closing  price on the  start  date of his
         employment,  September 9, 2008, to be vested on the following

                  May 31, 2014              25,000 shares

         Vesting is  contingent  upon the Company  reaching  annual sales levels
         while maintaining  designated pre-tax profit requirements as determined
         by a  Performance  Plan  for  Garland  Asher  adopted  by the  Board of
         Directors on January 14, 2009. Said  Performance Plan may be amended by

              options  which  would have been vested in the fiscal year in which

              (May 31).

         b.   Severance:  In the event of  severance,  Asher must  exercise  any

              you will  receive  accelerated  vesting of your options due within
              the next year.  "Cause" for termination of your  employment  shall
              exist  if Asher  willfully  fails to  substantially  perform  your
              duties  and  responsibilities  to the  Company,  commit any act of

                                EXHIBIT 10. b - 1

              trade  secrets of the Company (or other parties to whom you owe an
              obligation  of  confidentiality  as a result of your  relationship
              with the Company),  or willfully breach your obligations under any
              agreement  with the  Company.  "Cause" is also not defined as your
              willfully separating from the Company.

         6.   At-will  employment:  Notwithstanding  the  Company's  obligation,
              Asher's employment with the Company will be on an "at-will" basis,
              meaning  that  either  Asher or the  Company  may  terminate  your
              employment at any time for any reason or no reason without further
              obligation or liability.

         7.   Indemnification:  Asher  will  be  covered  by the  directors  and

              and officers.

              exclusive property of the Company. Upon request,  Asher shall sign
              all  documents  necessary  to  confirm or  perfect  the  exclusive
              ownership  of Client to the Work  Product.  Asher shall also treat

              publish  the Work  Product.  The  provisions  of this  section are
              enforceable  by  specific  performance  and  any  other  available

Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the
powers possessed by the Board, subject, however, to such resolutions, not
inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as may be adopted from time to

    (b) Code
§ 162(m).  To the extent that the Administrator determines

    3.2 Powers of the
Administrator.  Subject to the
provisions of the Plan, and in the case of a Committee, subject to the specific

exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration
or waiver of forfeiture or repurchase restrictions, and any restriction or
limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based in each
case on such factors as the Administrator will determine in its sole
discretion.

Fair Market Value of the Common Stock covered by such Award shall have declined
since the date the Award was granted.

Participants to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the
Corporation withhold from the Shares or cash to be issued upon exercise or
vesting of an Award that number of Shares or cash having a Fair Market Value
equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld.  The Fair Market
Value of any Shares to be withheld will be determined on the date that the
amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined.  All elections by a
Participant to have Shares or cash withheld for this purpose will be made in
such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or
advisable.

     

    (l) To
authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Corporation any instrument
required to affect the grant of an Award previously granted by the

trading policy, and (ii) restrictions as to the use of a specified
brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.  AND

    4.1 Stock Subject to the
Plan.  Subject to the
provisions of this Article 4 and Article 13 of the Plan, the maximum
aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan is 500,000, of
which the maximum number of Shares that may be delivered pursuant to Incentive
Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be 500,000.  The Shares may
be authorized and unissued, or reacquired Common Stock.  Shares shall
not be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the Plan with respect to any
portion of an Award that is paid in cash.  Upon payment in Shares
pursuant to the exercise of an Award, the number of Shares available for
issuance under the Plan shall be reduced only by the number of Shares actually
issued in such payment.  If a Participant pays the exercise price (or
purchase price, if applicable) of an Award through the tender of Shares, or if
Shares are tendered or withheld to satisfy any Corporation withholding
obligations, the number of Shares so tendered or withheld shall again be
available for issuance pursuant to future Awards under the Plan.

    4.2 Lapsed
Awards.  If any
outstanding Award expires or is terminated or canceled without having been
exercised or settled in full, or if Shares acquired pursuant to an Award subject
to forfeiture or repurchase are forfeited or repurchased by the Corporation, the
Shares allocable to the terminated portion of such Award or such forfeited or
repurchased Shares shall again be available for grant under the
Plan.

     

    4.3 Adjustments for Changes in
Capitalization and Similar Events.  In the event that
any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other
securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock
split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination,
change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of
consideration by the Company, then the Administrator shall:

     

    (a) appropriately
adjust any or all of (i) the number of Shares or other securities of the
Company (or number and kind of other securities or property) with respect to
which Awards may be granted, including (1) the aggregate number of Shares
that may be delivered pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan, and the maximum
number of Shares that may be delivered pursuant to Incentive Stock Options
granted under the Plan, as provided in Section 4.1 of the Plan, and
(2) the maximum number of Shares or other securities of the Company (or
number and kind of other securities or property) with respect to which Awards
may be granted to any Participant in any fiscal year of the Company, and
(ii) the terms of any outstanding Award, including (1) the number of
Shares or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other
securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards or to which outstanding
Awards relate, and (2) the exercise price with respect to outstanding
Awards; OR

     

    (b) if
required under the terms of an Award, make provision for a cash payment to the
holder of an outstanding Award in consideration for the cancellation of such
Award, including, in the case of an outstanding Option or SAR, a cash payment to
the holder of such Option or SAR in consideration for the cancellation of such
Option or SAR in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value
(as of a date specified by the Administrator) of the Shares subject to such
Option or SAR over the aggregate exercise price of such Option or SAR (it being
understood that, in such event, any Option or SAR having a per Share exercise
price equal to, or in excess of, the Fair Market Value of a Share subject to
such Option or SAR may be cancelled and terminated without any payment or
consideration therefore).

     

    Such
adjustments made by the Administrator shall be final, binding and
conclusive.  Any Shares issuable as a result of any such adjustment
shall be rounded to the next lower whole Share; no fractional Shares shall be
issued.  At all times the conversion of any convertible securities of
the Company shall not be treated as a “transaction not involving the receipt of
consideration by the Company.”

Awards.  Awards may, in
the discretion of the Administrator, be granted under the Plan in assumption of,
or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by the Corporation
and any Affiliate or a company acquired by the Corporation or with which the
Corporation combines (“Substitute Awards”).  The number of Shares
underlying any Substitute Awards shall be counted against the aggregate number
of Shares available for Awards under the Plan; provided, however, that
Substitute Awards issued in connection with the assumption of, or in
substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by an entity that is
acquired by the Corporation or its Affiliate through a merger or acquisition
shall not be counted against the aggregate number of Shares available for Awards
under the Plan; provided further, however, that Substitute Awards issued in
connection with the assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding stock
options intended to qualify for special tax treatment under Code §§ 421 and
422 that were previously granted by an entity that is acquired by the
Corporation or an Affiliate through a merger or acquisition shall be counted
against the aggregate number of Shares available for Incentive Stock Options
under the Plan.

    5.1 Eligibility.  Any Director,
Employee or Consultant (including any prospective Director, Employee or
Consultant) of the Corporation and any Affiliate shall be eligible to be
designated a Participant in the Plan for purposes of receiving
Awards.  However, Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to
Employees.

     

    5.2 Termination of
Participation.  If a Participant
is no longer a Service Provider due to a termination for “Cause,” then all
Awards granted to the Participant shall expire upon the earlier of: (i) the
date of the occurrence giving rise to such termination, or (ii) the natural
expiration of the Award according to its underlying
terms.  Thereafter, the Participant shall have no rights with respect
to any Awards under the Plan.

    STOCK
OPTIONS

     

    6.1 Option
Grant.  Subject to the
provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall have sole and plenary authority
to determine the Participants to whom Options shall be granted, the number of
Shares to be covered by each Option, whether the Option will be an Incentive
Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option and the conditions and limitations
applicable to the vesting and exercise of the Option.  However, no
Participant shall be granted more than 50,000 Options in any calendar
year.  In the case of Incentive Stock Options, the terms and
conditions of such grants shall be subject to and comply with such rules as may
be prescribed by Code § 422 and any regulations related thereto, as may be
amended from time to time.  All Options granted under the Plan shall
be Non-Qualified Stock Options unless the applicable Award Agreement expressly
states that the Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock
Option.  If an Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option, and
if for any reason such Option (or any portion thereof) shall not qualify as an
Incentive Stock Option, then, to the extent of such non-qualification, such
Option (or portion thereof) shall be regarded as a Non-Qualified Stock Option
appropriately granted under the Plan, provided that such Option (or portion
thereof) otherwise complies with the Plan’s requirements relating to
Non-Qualified Stock Options.

    (a) Term of
Option.  The term of each Option will be stated in the Award
Agreement. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the term will be 10 years
from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award
Agreement. Moreover, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a
Participant who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock
representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of
stock of the Corporation or any Affiliate, the term of the Incentive Stock
Option will be five years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be
provided in the Award Agreement.

     

    (b) $100,000 Limitation for Incentive
Stock Options.  Each Option will be designated in the Award
Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock
Option.  However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent the
aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock
Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any
calendar year (under all plans of the Corporation and any Affiliate) exceeds
$100,000, such Options will be treated as Non-Qualified Stock
Options.  For purposes of this Section 6.1(b), Incentive Stock
Options will be taken into account in the order in which they were
granted.  The Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of
the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.

     

    6.2 Exercise
Price.  Except as
otherwise established by the Administrator at the time an Option is granted and
set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, the exercise price of each Share
covered by an Option shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of
such Share (determined as of the date the Option is granted); provided, however,
that in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Employee who, at the
time of the grant of such Option, owns stock representing more than 10% of the
voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation and any Affiliate, the
per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per
Share on the date of the grant.  Options are intended to qualify as
“qualified performance-based compensation” under Code
§ 162(m).

     

    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 if such Option is granted pursuant to an
assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the
provisions of Code § 424(a) (involving a corporate
reorganization).

     

    6.3 Waiting Period and Exercise
Dates.  At the time an
Option is granted, the Administrator will fix the period within which the Option
may be exercised and will determine any conditions that must be satisfied before
the Option may be exercised.

     

    6.4 Exercise of
Option.

     

    (a) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a
Shareholder.  Any Option granted hereunder will be exercisable
according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions
as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award
Agreement.  An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a
Share.

    An Option
will be deemed exercised when the Corporation receives: (i) written or
electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Award Agreement) from the
person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for the
Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised.  Full payment
may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the
Administrator and permitted by the Award Agreement and the
Plan.  Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the
name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the
Participant and his or her spouse.  Until the Shares are issued (as
evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Corporation or of a duly
authorized transfer agent of the Corporation), no right to vote or receive
dividends or any other rights as a shareholder will exist with respect to the
Awarded Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option.  The
Corporation will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the
Option is exercised.  No adjustment will be made for a dividend or
other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are
issued, except as provided in Articles 4 and 13 of the Plan or the
applicable Award Agreement.

     

    Exercising
an Option in any manner will decrease the number of Shares thereafter available
for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is
exercised.

     

    (b) Termination of Relationship as
Service Provider.  If a Participant ceases to be a Service
Provider, other than upon the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant
may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the
Award Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of
termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such
Option as set forth in the Award Agreement).  In the absence of a
specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for
three months following the Participant’s termination.

     

    (c) Disability of
Participant.  If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider
as a result of the Participant’s Disability, the Participant may exercise his or
her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to
the extent the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event
later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award
Agreement).  In the absence of a specified time in the Award
Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for 12 months following the
Participant’s termination.

     

    (d) Death of
Participant.  If a Participant dies while a Service Provider,
the Option may be exercised following the Participant’s death within such period
of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Option is
vested on the date of death (but in no event may the option be exercised later
than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award
Agreement), by the Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided such
beneficiary has been designated prior to Participant’s death in a form
acceptable to the Administrator.  If no such beneficiary has been
designated by the Participant, then such Option may be exercised by the personal
representative of the Participant’s estate or by the person(s) to whom the
Option is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with
the laws of descent and distribution.  In the absence of a specified
time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for 12 months
following Participant’s death.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        11

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (e) Buyout
Provisions.  The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out
for a payment in cash or Shares an Option previously granted based on such terms
and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the
Participant at the time that such offer is made.

     

    (f) Reversion to
Plan.  Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on
the date of termination, Disability or death as provided in
Sections 6.4(b), (c), and (d) of the Plan, Participant is not vested
as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of
the Option will immediately revert to the Plan following the Participant’s
termination, Disability or death.  If the Option is not so exercised
within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares
covered by such Option will revert to the Plan.

     

    6.5 Form of
Consideration.  The Administrator
will determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option,
including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the
Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of
grant.  To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, consideration may
consist entirely of:

     

    (a) cash;

     

    (b) check;

     

    (c) promissory
note (subject to Section 6.6);

     

    (d) other
Shares which meet the conditions established by the Administrator to avoid
adverse accounting consequences (as determined by the
Administrator);

     

    (e) consideration
received by the Corporation under a cashless exercise program implemented by the
Corporation in connection with the Plan;

     

    (f) a
reduction in the amount of any Corporation liability to the Participant,
including any liability attributable to the Participant’s participation in any
Corporation-sponsored deferred compensation program or arrangement;

     

    (g) any
combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or

     

    (h) such
other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the
extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

     

    6.6 Promissory
Note.  Where applicable
and subject to the requirements of Applicable Law, payment of all or part of the
purchase price of an Award may be made by delivery of a full recourse promissory
note (“Promissory Note”).  The Promissory Note shall be executed by
the Participant, made payable to the Corporation and bear interest at such rate
as the Administrator shall determine, but in no case less than the minimum rate
which will not cause under the Code: (i) imputed interest,
(ii) original issue discount, or (iii) any other similar
result.  Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, interest on
the Promissory Note shall be payable in quarterly installments on March 31,
June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each calendar
year.  A Promissory Note shall contain such other terms and conditions
as may be determined by the Administrator; provided, however, that the full
principal amount of the Promissory Note and all unpaid interest accrued thereon
shall be due not later than five years from the date of exercise.  The
Corporation may obtain from the Participant a security interest in all Awards
issued to the Participant under the Plan for the purpose of securing payment
under the Promissory Note and may retain possession of, where applicable, the
Share certificates in order to perfect its security interest.

to time, may grant Shares of Restricted Stock to Service Providers in such
amounts as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will
determine.

     

    7.2 Restricted Stock
Agreement.  Each Award of
Restricted Stock will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the
Period of Restriction, the number of Shares granted, and such other terms and
conditions as the Administrator will determine in its sole
discretion.  Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, Shares of
Restricted Stock will be held by the Corporation as escrow agent until the
restrictions on such Shares have lapsed.

provided in this Article 7, Shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold,

hereunder may exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares, unless

Distributions.  During the Period
of Restriction, Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock will be
entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to
such Shares unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement.  If any
such dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares will be subject
to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Shares of
Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid.

     

    7.8 Return of Restricted Stock
to Corporation.  On the date set
forth in the Award Agreement, the Restricted Stock for which restrictions have
not lapsed will revert to the Corporation and again will become available for

any time and from time to time as will be determined by the Administrator, in
its sole discretion.

     

    9.2 Number of
Shares.  The Administrator
will have sole discretion to determine the number of SARs granted to any Service
Provider.

     

    9.3 Exercise Price and Other

to determine the terms and conditions of SARs granted under the

the term of the SAR, the conditions of exercise, and such other terms and
conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will
determine.

     

    9.5 Expiration of
SARs.  A SAR granted
under the Plan will expire upon the date determined by the Administrator, in its
sole discretion, and as set forth in the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the rules of Sections 6.4(b), (c) and (d) will also
apply to SARs.

     

    9.6 Payment of SAR
Amount.  Upon exercise of
a SAR, a Participant will be entitled to receive payment from the Corporation an
amount determined by multiplying: (i) the difference between the Fair
Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the exercise price; times
(ii) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is
exercised.  At the discretion of the Administrator, the payment upon
SAR exercise may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, other securities,
other Awards, other property or a combination of any of the
foregoing.

     

    9.7 Buyout

    PERFORMANCE
UNITS AND PERFORMANCE SHARES

     

    10.1 Grant of Performance
Units/Shares.  Subject to the
terms and conditions of the Plan, Performance Units and Performance Shares may
be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time, as will be
determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion.  The
Administrator will have complete discretion in determining the number of
Performance Units and Performance Shares granted to each
Participant.

    10.2 Value of Performance
Units/Shares.  Each Performance
Unit will have an initial value that is established by the Administrator on or
before the date of grant.  Each Performance Share will have an initial
value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of
grant.

     

    10.3 Performance Objectives and
Other Terms.  The Administrator
will set performance objectives in its discretion which, depending on the extent
to which they are met, will determine the number or value of Performance
Units/Shares that will be paid out to the Service Providers.  The time
period during which the performance objectives must be met will be called the
“Performance Period.”  Each Award of Performance Units/Shares will be
evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the “Performance Period,” and
such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion,
will determine.  The Administrator may set performance objectives
based upon the achievement of Corporation-wide, divisional, or individual goals,
applicable federal or state securities laws, or any other basis determined by
the Administrator in its discretion.

     

    10.4 Earning of Performance
Units/Shares.  After the
applicable “Performance Period” has ended, the holder of Performance
Units/Shares will be entitled to receive a payout of the number of Performance
Units/Shares earned by the Participant over the “Performance Period,” to be
determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding performance
objectives have been achieved.  After the grant of a Performance
Unit/Share, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any
performance objectives for such Performance Unit/Share.

     

    10.5 Form and Timing for Payment
of Performance Units/Shares.  Payment of earned
Performance Units/Shares will be made as soon after the expiration of the
applicable Performance Period at the time determined by the
Administrator.  The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay
earned Performance Units/Shares in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an
aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Performance
Units/Shares at the close of the applicable Performance Period) or in a
combination thereof.

     

    10.6 Cancellation of Performance
Units/Shares.  On the date set
forth in the Award Agreement, all unearned or unvested Performance Units/Shares
will be forfeited to the Corporation, and again will be available for grant

    DISSOLUTION
OR LIQUIDATION; OR CHANGE IN CONTROL

     

    13.1 Dissolution or
Liquidation.  In the event of
the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation, the Administrator
will notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date
of such proposed transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide
for a Participant to have the right to exercise his or her Award, to the extent
applicable, until 10 days prior to such transaction as to all of the Awarded
Stock covered thereby, including Shares as to which the Award would not
otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the Administrator may provide that any
Corporation repurchase option or forfeiture rights applicable to any Award shall
lapse 100%, and that any Award vesting shall accelerate 100%, provided the
proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner
contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised or vested, an
Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed
action.

     

    13.2 Change in
Control.

     

    (a) Options and
SARs.  In the event of a Change in Control, each outstanding
Option and SAR shall be assumed or an equivalent option or SAR substituted by
the successor corporation or Affiliate of the successor corporation. With
respect to Options and SARs granted to an Outside Director that are assumed or
substituted for, if immediately prior to or after the Change in Control the
Participant’s status as a Director or a director of the successor corporation,
as applicable, is terminated other than upon a voluntary resignation by the
Participant, then the Participant shall fully vest in and have the right to
exercise such Options and SARs as to all of the Awarded Stock, including Shares
as to which it would not otherwise be vested or exercisable. Unless otherwise
determined by the Administrator, in the event that the successor corporation
refuses to assume or substitute for the Option or SAR, the Participant shall
fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option or SAR as to all of the
Awarded Stock, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested or
exercisable. If an Option or SAR is not assumed or substituted in the event of a
Change in Control, the Administrator shall notify the Participant in writing or
electronically that the Option or SAR shall be exercisable for a period of up to
15 days from the date of such notice, and the Option or SAR shall terminate upon
the expiration of such period. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Option or
SAR shall be considered assumed if, following the Change in Control, the option
or stock appreciation right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each
Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Option or SAR immediately prior to the
Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities
or property) received in the Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for
each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were
offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the
holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if
such consideration received in the Change in Control is not solely common stock
of the successor corporation or its Affiliate, the Administrator may, with the
consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be
received upon the exercise of the Option or SAR, for each Share of Awarded Stock
subject to the Option or SAR, to be solely common stock of the successor
corporation or its Affiliate equal in fair market value to the per share
consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Change in Control.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an Award that vests, is earned
or paid-out upon the satisfaction of one or more performance goals will not be
considered assumed if the Corporation or its successor modifies any of such
performance goals without the Participant’s consent; provided, however, a
modification to such performance goals only to reflect the successor
corporation’s post-Change in Control corporate structure will not be deemed to
invalidate an otherwise valid Award assumption.

    (b) Restricted Stock, Unrestricted
Stock, Performance Shares, Performance Units, Restricted Stock Units, and Other
Stock Based Awards.  In the event of a Change in Control, each
outstanding Restricted Stock, Unrestricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance
Unit, Other Stock Based Award and Restricted Stock Unit awards shall be assumed
or an equivalent Restricted Stock, Unrestricted Stock, Performance Share,
Performance Unit, Other Stock Based Award and Restricted Stock Unit award
substituted by the successor corporation or an Affiliate of the successor
corporation.  With respect to Awards granted to an Outside Director
that are assumed or substituted for, if immediately prior to or after the Change
in Control the Participant’s status as a Director or a director of the successor
corporation, as applicable, is terminated other than upon a voluntary
resignation by the Participant, then the Participant shall fully vest in such
Awards, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be
vested.  Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, in the
event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the
Restricted Stock, Unrestricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit, Other
Stock Based Award or Restricted Stock Unit award, the Participant shall fully
vest in the Restricted Stock, Unrestricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance
Unit, Other Stock Based Award or Restricted Stock Unit including as to Shares
which would not otherwise be vested. For the purposes of this paragraph, a
Restricted Stock, Unrestricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit, Other
Stock Based Award and Restricted Stock Unit award shall be considered assumed if
following the Change in Control, the award confers the right to purchase or
receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the Change in
Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or
property) received in the Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each
Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered
a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a
majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such
consideration received in the Change in Control is not solely common stock of
the successor corporation or its Affiliate, the Administrator may, with the
consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be
received, for each Share and each unit/right to acquire a Share subject to the
Award, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Affiliate
equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of
Common Stock in the Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, an Award that vests, is earned or paid-out upon the satisfaction of
one or more performance goals will not be considered assumed if the Corporation
or its successor modifies any of such performance goals without the
Participant’s consent; provided, however, a modification to such performance
goals only to reflect the successor corporation’s post-Change in Control
corporate structure will not be deemed to invalidate an otherwise valid Award
assumption.

    MISCELLANEOUS
PROVISIONS

     

    14.1 No Uniform Rights to
Awards.  The Corporation
has no obligation to uniformly treat Participants or holders or beneficiaries of
Awards.  The terms and conditions of Awards and the Administrator’s
determinations and interpretations with respect thereto need not be the same
with respect to each Participant and may be made selectively among Participants,
whether or not such Participants are similarly situated.

     

    14.2 Share
Certificates.  All certificates
for Shares or other securities of the Corporation or Affiliate delivered under
the Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise thereof shall be subject to such
stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Administrator may deem
advisable under the Plan, the applicable Award Agreement or the rules,
regulations and other requirements of the SEC, the NYSE or any other stock
exchange or quotation system upon which such Shares or other securities are then
listed or reported and any applicable Federal or state laws, and the
Administrator may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates
to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

     

    14.3 No Rights as a Service
Provider.  Neither the Plan
nor any Award shall confer upon a Participant any right with respect to
continuing his or her relationship as a Service Provider, nor shall they
interfere in any way with the right of the Participant or the right of the
Corporation or its Affiliate to terminate such relationship at any time, with or
without cause.

     

    14.4 No Rights as
Shareholder.  No Participant or
holder or beneficiary of any Award shall have any rights as a shareholder with
respect to any Shares to be distributed under the Plan until he or she has
become the holder of such Shares.  In connection with each grant of
Restricted Stock, except as provided in the applicable Award Agreement, the
Participant shall not be entitled to the rights of a shareholder in respect of
such Restricted Shares.  Except as otherwise provided in
Section 4.3 or the applicable Award Agreement, no adjustments shall be made
for dividends or distributions on (whether ordinary or extraordinary, and
whether in cash, Shares, other securities or other property), or other events
relating to, Shares subject to an Award for which the record date is prior to
the date such Shares are delivered.

     

    14.5 No Trust or Fund
Created.  Neither the Plan
nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of
any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Corporation or Affiliate, on
one hand, and a Participant or any other person, on the other.  To the
extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Corporation
or Affiliate pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right
of any unsecured general creditor of the Corporation or Affiliate.

     

    14.6 No Fractional
Shares.  No fractional
Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the
Administrator shall determine whether cash, other securities or other property
shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares or whether such
fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be cancelled, terminated or
otherwise eliminated.

    14.7 Requirement of Consent and
Notification of Election Under Code § 83(b) or Similar
Provision.  No election under
Code § 83(b) (to include in gross income in the year of transfer the
amounts specified in Code § 83(b)) or under a similar provision of law may
be made unless expressly permitted by the terms of the applicable Award
Agreement or by action of the Administrator in writing prior to the making of
such election.  If an Award recipient, in connection with the
acquisition of Shares under the Plan or otherwise, is expressly permitted under
the terms of the applicable Award Agreement or by such Administrator action to
make such an election and the Participant makes the election, the Participant
shall notify the Administrator of such election within 10 days of filing notice
of the election with the IRS or other governmental authority, in addition to any
filing and notification required pursuant to regulations issued under Code
§ 83(b) or other applicable provision.

     

    14.8 Requirement of Notification
Upon Disqualifying Disposition Under Code § 421(b).  If any
Participant shall make any disposition of Shares delivered pursuant to the
exercise of an Incentive Stock Option under the circumstances described in Code
§ 421(b) (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions) or any
successor provision of the Code, such Participant shall notify the Corporation
of such disposition within 10 days of such disposition.

     

    14.9 Leaves of
Absence.  Unless the
Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Awards granted hereunder will be
suspended during any unpaid leave of absence and will resume on the date the
Participant returns to work on a regular schedule as determined by the
Corporation; provided, however, that no vesting credit will be awarded for the
time vesting has been suspended during such leave of absence.  A
Service Provider will not cease to be an Employee in the case of (i) any
leave of absence approved by the Corporation or (ii) transfers between
locations of the Corporation or between the Corporation or its
Affiliate.  For purposes of Incentive Stock Options, no such leave may
exceed 3 months, unless reemployment upon expiration of such leave is guaranteed
by statute or contract.  If reemployment upon expiration of a leave of
absence approved by the Corporation is not so guaranteed, then 6 months from the
first day of such leave any Incentive Stock Option held by the Participant will
cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and will be treated for tax
purposes as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

     

    14.10 Notices.  Any written
notice to the Corporation required by any provisions of the Plan shall be
addressed to the Secretary of the Corporation and shall be effective when
received.

     

    14.11 Non-Transferability of
Awards.  Other than
pursuant to a domestic relations order (within the meaning of Rule 16a-12
promulgated under the Exchange Act) and unless determined otherwise by the
Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of
descent or distribution, and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the
Participant, only by the Participant. If the Administrator makes an Award
transferable, such Award will contain such additional terms and conditions as
the Administrator deems appropriate.

     

    14.12 Date of
Grant.  The date of grant
of an Award will be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes
the determination granting such Award, or such other later date as is determined
by the Administrator. Notice of the determination will be provided to each
Participant within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

     

    14.13 Amendment and Termination of
Plan.

     

    (a) Amendment and
Termination.  The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend
or terminate the Plan.  Unless sooner terminated, this Plan shall
terminate on February 23, 2017, the date that is 10 years from the date the Plan
was originally adopted by the Board or approved by the shareholders of the
Corporation, whichever was earlier.

    (b) Shareholder
Approval.  The Corporation will obtain shareholder approval of
any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with
Applicable Laws.

     

    (c) Effect of Amendment or
Termination.  Subject to Section 14.15 of the Plan, no
amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan will impair the
rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed upon between the Participant
and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the
Participant and the Corporation. Termination of the Plan will not affect the
Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with
respect to Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such
termination.

     

    14.14 Conditions Upon Issuance of
Shares.

     

    (a) Legal
Compliance.  Shares will not be issued pursuant to the exercise
of an Award unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and delivery of
such Shares will comply with Applicable Laws and will be further subject to the
approval of counsel for the Corporation with respect to such
compliance.

     

    (b) Investment
Representations.  As a condition to the exercise or receipt of
an Award, the Corporation may require the person exercising or receiving such
Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise or receipt 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 Corporation, such a representation is required.

     

    14.15 Severability.  Notwithstanding
any contrary provision of the Plan or an Award to the contrary, if any one or
more of the provisions (or any part thereof) of this Plan or the Awards shall be
held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be
modified so as to make it valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions (or any part thereof) of
the Plan or Award, as applicable, shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby.

     

    14.16 Inability to Obtain
Authority.  The inability of
the Corporation to obtain authority from any regulatory body having
jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Corporation’s counsel to be
necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, will relieve
the Corporation of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such
Shares as to which such requisite authority will not have been
obtained.

     

    14.17 Shareholder
Approval.  The Plan will be
subject to approval by the shareholders of the Corporation within 12 months
after the date the Plan is adopted. Such shareholder approval will be obtained
in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws, and is effective
as of the Effective Date.

     

    14.18 Governing
Law.  The validity,
construction and effect of the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to
the Plan and any Award Agreement shall be determined in accordance with the laws
of the State of California, without giving effect to the conflict of laws
provisions thereof.
