    Award of Options    
  

        5.1    Options.    The
Committee may grant Options to Participants in accordance with this Article V. Participation in the Plan
shall be limited to individuals who were Service Providers as of December 31, 2000. By accepting any award under the Plan, each participant and each person claiming under or through him or her
shall be conclusively deemed to have indicated his or her acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, any action taken under the Plan by the Company, the Board or the Committee. Subject to the
foregoing limitation, Nonqualified Stock Options may be granted to such persons and for such number of shares of Common Stock as the Committee shall determine (such individuals to whom grants are made
being sometimes herein called "optionees" or "grantees," as the case may be). Determinations made by the Committee under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made selectively among eligible
individuals under the Plan, whether or not such individuals are similarly situated. A grant of any type made hereunder in any one year to an eligible participant shall neither guarantee nor preclude a
further grant of that or any other type to such participant in that year or subsequent years. 

        5.2    Nature
of Options.    The Options granted shall take such form as the Committee shall determine, subject to the following terms
and conditions. 

        It
is the Company's intent that Stock Options granted under the Plan not be classified as Incentive Stock Options. 

        5.3    Exercise
Price.    The price per share deliverable upon the exercise of each Option ("exercise price") shall be established by the
Committee, except that the exercise price of any Option may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date of grant of the Option. 

        5.4    Written
Agreement.    Each Option granted hereunder to a Participant shall be embodied in a written agreement (an
"Option Agreement"), which shall be signed by the Participant and by the chief executive officer or President of the Company (or another officer of the Company authorized
for such purpose by the Committee or the Board) for and in the name and on behalf of the Company, and any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of such Option shall be subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and to such terms and conditions as are prescribed in the Option Agreement (which in the Committee's discretion may include, but are not limited to,
(i) the right of the Company and such other Persons as the Board shall designate ("Designees") to repurchase from each
Participant, and such Participant's transferees, all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to such Participant upon the exercise of an Option in the event such Participant ceases to be a Service
Provider, (ii) restrictions on the Participant's ability to transfer such shares, (iii) provisions that in the event of a sale of the issuer of the Common Stock such Participant, and its
transferees, shall vote in favor of such sale and shall (if such sale is structured as a sale of stock) be required to sell its shares in connection with such sale of the issuer, (iv) holdback
and other registration right restrictions in the event of a public registration of any equity securities of the Issuer, and (v) any other terms and conditions which the Committee shall deem
necessary and desirable). 

        5.5    Term
of Options.    The term during which each Option may be exercised shall be determined by the Committee, but, except as
otherwise provided herein, in no event shall an Option be exercisable 

3

 

in whole or in part, more than ten years from the date it is granted. All rights to purchase Common Stock pursuant to an Option shall, unless sooner terminated, expire at the date designated by the
Committee. The Committee shall determine the date on which each Option shall become exercisable and may provide that an Option shall become exercisable in installments. The Common Stock constituting
each installment may be purchased in whole or in part at any time after such installment becomes exercisable, subject to such minimum exercise requirements as may be designated by the Committee.
Unless otherwise provided herein or in the terms of the related grant, an optionee may exercise an Option only if he or she is, and has continuously since the date the Option was granted, been a
director, officer or employee of the Company, a subsidiary or an Affiliate. Prior to the exercise of an Option and delivery of the Common Stock represented thereby, the optionee shall have no rights
as a stockholder with respect to any Common Stock covered by such outstanding Option (including any dividend or voting rights). 

 
 

ARTICLE 6    
    
    Exercise of Options    
  

        6.1    Conditions
and Limitations on Exercisability.    Options granted hereunder shall be exercisable according to the terms hereof at
such time or times at or subsequent to grant as shall be determined by the Committee in its discretion and set forth in the Option Agreement. Options may be made exercisable in one or more
installments, upon the happening of certain events, upon the passage of time, upon the fulfillment of certain requirements, upon the achievement by the Company of certain performance goals, or subject
to such other limitations or conditions, in each case as shall be determined by the Committee in its discretion at the time of grant and set forth in the Option Agreement. 

        6.2    Expiration
of Options.    

(a)    Normal
Expiration.    In no event shall any portion of any Option be exercisable after the date of expiration of the term thereof, as determined
by the Committee pursuant to Section 5.5 above (the "Expiration Date"). 

(b)    Early
Expiration upon Termination of Service Provider Relationship.    Except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the Option Agreement,
any portion of any of a Participant's Options that are not vested and exercisable on the date such Participant ceases to be a Service Provider (the "Termination Date")
shall expire and be forfeited as of such date, and any portion of any of a Participant's Options that are vested and exercisable on the Termination Date shall expire and be forfeited 60 days
after the Termination Date, but in no event after the Expiration Date. 

 
 

ARTICLE 7    
    
    General Provisions    
  

        7.1    Adjustments.    Subject
to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
each Option, and the price per share thereof in each such Option shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock of the Company resulting
from a stock split (whether by subdivision or consolidation of shares) or the payment of a share dividend (but only on the Common Stock). In the event of any merger, consolidation (other than a
consolidation of shares covered by previous sentence), reorganization, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure, or other change in the shares of
Common Stock, the Committee may in its discretion make such adjustments in the number and type of shares authorized by the Plan, the number and type of shares covered by outstanding Options and the
option exercise prices specified therein as it determines to be appropriate and equitable (and such adjustment shall in no event be considered an amendment 

4

 

or modification of the Plan or any Options hereunder). The issuance by the Issuer of shares of stock of any class, or options or securities exercisable or convertible into shares of stock of any
class, for cash or property, or for labor or services either upon direct sale, or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon exercise or conversion of other securities,
shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock then subject to any Options or authorized under the Plan. 

        7.2    Listing,
Registration and Compliance with Laws and Regulations.    Options shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time
the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares subject to the Options upon any securities exchange or under
any state or federal securities or other law or regulation, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition to or in connection with the
granting of the Options or the issuance or purchase of shares thereunder, no Options may be granted or exercised, in whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or
approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee. The holders of such Options shall supply the Company with such certificates, representations and
information as the Company shall request and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company in obtaining such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval. In the case of officers and other
Persons subject to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Committee may at any time impose any limitations upon the exercise of an Option that, in the Board's
discretion, are necessary or desirable in order to comply with such Section 16(b) and the rules and regulations thereunder. If the Company, as part of an offering of securities or otherwise,
finds it desirable because of federal or state regulatory requirements to reduce the period during which any Options may be exercised, the Committee, may, in its discretion and without the
Participant's consent, so reduce such period on not less than 15 days written notice to the holders thereof. 

        7.3    Nontransferability.    Options
may not be transferred other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and, during the
lifetime of the Participant, may be exercised only by such Participant (or his legal guardian or legal representative). In the event of the death of a Participant, exercise of Options granted
hereunder shall be made only: 

        (i)
by the executor or administrator of the estate of the deceased Participant or the Person or Persons to whom the deceased Participant's rights under the Option shall pass by will or
the laws of descent and distribution; and 

        (ii)
to the extent that the deceased Participant was entitled thereto at the date of his death, unless otherwise provided by the Board in such Participant's Option Agreement. 

        7.4    Retention
of Company's Rights.    The Company's adoption of this Plan and its issuance of Options to the Participants hereunder
shall not interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate any Participant's employment or other Service Provider relationship at any time and for any reason, nor confer upon
any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or other Service Provider relationship with, the Company for any period of time or to continue his present (or any other) rate of compensation.
No Service Provider shall have a right to be selected as a Participant or, having been so selected, to be selected again as a Participant. 

        7.5    Amendment,
Suspension and Termination of Plan.    The date of commencement of the Plan shall be January 26, 2001. Unless
previously terminated upon the adoption of a resolution of the Board terminating the Plan, the Plan shall terminate at the close of business on December 31, 2010; provided that the Board may,
prior to such termination, extend the term of the Plan for up to five years. No termination of the Plan shall materially and adversely affect any of the rights or obligations of any person, without
his or her consent, under any grant of Options under the Plan. 

5

 

        7.6    Amendment,
Modification and Cancellation of Outstanding Options.    The Board may amend or modify any Option in any manner to the
extent that the Board would have had the authority under the Plan initially to grant such Option; provided that no such amendment or modification shall impair the rights
of any Participant under any Option without the consent of a majority (based on the number of Option Shares (as defined in the Option Agreements) held) of the Participants whose Options are so
amended. With the Participant's consent, the Committee may cancel any Option and issue a new Option to such Participant.

ARTICLE 4    
    
    Stock Subject to the Plan

Stock with respect to which Options may be granted under the Plan and which may be issued upon the exercise thereof shall not exceed, in the aggregate,  300,000 shares; provided that the type and

to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.1 below. 

        4.2    Reversion
of Unused Shares to the Plan.    In the event any Options expire unexercised or are canceled, terminated or forfeited in
any manner without the issuance of Common Stock thereunder, the shares of Common Stock which were subject to such Options shall be returned to the Plan and shall again be available for future

hereunder; provided that if shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of Options are repurchased by the Company at the original exercise price paid for such shares, such
shares shall revert to the Plan and shall be available for future issuance hereunder. 

        4.3    Source
of Shares for Plan.    The 300,000 shares of Common Stock available under
the Plan may be either authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares or a combination thereof, as the Committee shall determine. 

 
 

ARTICLE 5    
    
    Award of Options    
  

        5.1    Options.    The
Committee may grant Options to Participants in accordance with this Article V. Participation in the Plan
shall be limited to employees of the Company Group selected by the Committee who qualify as Participants. By accepting any award under the Plan, each Participant and each person claiming under or
through him or her shall be conclusively deemed to have indicated his or her acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, any action taken under the Plan by the Company,
the Board or the Committee. Incentive Stock Options or Nonqualified Stock Options may be granted to such persons and for such number of shares of Common Stock as the Committee shall determine (such
individuals to whom grants are made being sometimes herein called "optionees" or "grantees," as the case may be). Determinations with respect to grants under the plan shall be made by the Committee
under the Plan based upon milestones established by the Committee relating to Participant's time of service as an employee of one or more members of the Company Group. The Committee may amend
applicable requirements with respect to time of service of Participants from 

3

 

time to time, and may discontinue or suspend the award of Options pursuant to the Plan at any time. The Committee is specifically authorized to take into account time of service of Participants prior
to adoption or commencement of this Plan, and to take into account time of service of Participants with an employer prior to the time that such employer becomes a member of the Company Group. A grant
of any type made hereunder in any one year to an eligible participant shall neither guarantee nor preclude a further grant of that or any other type to such participant in that year or subsequent
years. 

        5.2    Nature
of Options.    The Committee may from time to time grant to eligible participants Incentive Stock Options or Nonqualified
Stock Options; provided that the Committee may grant Incentive Stock Options only to eligible employees of the Company or its subsidiaries (as defined for this purpose in Section 424(f) of the
Code). The Options granted shall take such form as the Committee shall determine, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. It is the Company's intent that Nonqualified Stock Options
granted under the Plan not be classified as Incentive Stock Options, that Incentive Stock Options be consistent with and contain or be deemed to contain all provisions required under
Section 422 of the Code and any successor thereto, and that any ambiguities in construction be interpreted in order to effectuate such intent. If an Incentive Stock Option granted under the
Plan does not qualify as such for any reason, then to the extent of such nonqualification, the Option represented thereby shall be regarded as a Nonqualified Stock Option duly granted under the Plan,
provided that such Option otherwise meets the Plan's requirements for Nonqualified Stock Options. 

        5.3    Exercise
Price.    The price per share deliverable upon the exercise of each Option ("exercise price") shall be established by the
Committee, except that the exercise price of any Option may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date of grant of the Option, and in the case of the
grant of any Incentive Stock Option to an employee who, at the time of the grant, owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, the exercise price may not be less that 110% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date of grant of the Option, in each case unless otherwise permitted by
Section 422 of the Code. 

        5.4    Written
Agreement.    Each Option granted hereunder to a Participant shall be embodied in a written agreement (an
"Option Agreement"), which shall be signed by the Participant and by the chief executive officer of the Company (or another officer of the Company authorized for such
purpose by the Committee or the Board) for and in the name and on behalf of the Company, and any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of such Option shall be subject to the terms
and conditions set forth in the Plan and to such terms and conditions as are prescribed in the Option Agreement which shall include the number of Options granted, the exercise price, the option term,
vesting and forfeiture provisions, nonassignability provisions, restrictions on exercise, together with appropriate representations and warranties and tax provisions, as applicable. The Committee may
include such other provisions in the Option Agreement as it shall deem advisable, including, but not limited to holdback and other registration right restrictions in the event of a public registration
of any equity securities of the Company. 

        5.5    Term
of Options.    The term of each Option to its date of expiration shall be determined by the Committee, but, except as
otherwise provided herein, in no event shall an Option be exercisable in whole or in part, in the case of a Nonqualified Stock Option or an Incentive Stock Option (other than as described below), more
than ten years from the date it is granted or, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who at the time of the grant owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, if required by the Code, more than five years from the date it is granted. All rights to purchase Common Stock pursuant to an Option shall,
unless sooner terminated, expire at the date designated by the Committee.

        Unless
otherwise provided herein or in the terms of the related grant, an optionee may exercise an Option only if he or she is, and has continuously since the date the Option was
granted, been an employee of one or more members of the Company Group. Prior to the exercise of an Option and delivery of the Common Stock represented thereby, the optionee shall have no rights as a
stockholder with respect to any Common Stock covered by such outstanding Option (including any dividend or voting rights), and until such time as the Option has been exercised and shares of common
stock have been issued pursuant thereto, the optionee shall not be listed on the books of the Company as the owner of any shares of common stock with respect to such Option. 

        5.6    Limitations
on Grants.    If required by the Code, the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the grant date) of shares for
which an Incentive Stock Option is exercisable by an employee for the first time during any calendar year under all equity incentive plans of the Company and its subsidiaries (as defined in
Section 422 of the Code) may not exceed $100,000. 

 
 

ARTICLE 6    
    
    Exercise of Options    
  

        6.1    Conditions
and Limitations on Exercisability.    Options granted hereunder shall not be exerciseable in any event prior to the
occurrence of a Triggering Event. Subject to the foregoing, Options granted hereunder shall otherwise vest at such time or times at or subsequent to grant as shall be determined by the Committee in
its discretion and set forth in the Option Agreement. Options may be made to
vest in one or more installments, upon the happening of certain events, upon the passage of time, upon the fulfillment of certain requirements, upon the achievement by the Company of certain
performance goals, or subject to such other limitations or conditions, in each case as shall be determined by the Committee in its discretion at the time of grant and set forth in the Option
Agreement. 

        6.2    Expiration
and Termination of Options.    

(a)    Normal
Expiration.    In no event shall any portion of any Option be exercisable after the date of expiration of the term thereof, as determined
pursuant to Section 5.5 above (the "Expiration Date"). 

(b)    Early
Termination upon Termination of Employment Relationship.    Options issued hereunder shall immediately terminate and shall not be
exerciseable in the event that the Participant to which the Option has been granted shall no longer be employed by a member of the Company Group at any time prior to the occurrence of a Triggering
Event. Following the occurrence of a Triggering Event, except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the Option Agreement, any portion of any of a Participant's Options that are not vested and
exercisable on the date such Participant ceases to be so employed (the "Termination Date") shall expire and be forfeited as of such date, and except as otherwise provided
herein or in the Option Agreement, any portion of any of a Participant's Options that are vested and exercisable on the Termination Date shall expire and be forfeited 60 days after the
Termination Date, but in no event after the Expiration Date. 

(c)    Termination
upon Change in Control of the Company.    In the event of a Triggering Event that is a Change in Control of the Company, each
outstanding Option issued hereunder shall be canceled in exchange for (a) a payment for each vested Option equal to the excess of the per share acquisition price over the exercise price of such
vested Option payable in cash or in such other form of non-cash consideration as received by the holders of shares of common stock in the transaction, as determined by the Board, or
(b) if determined by the committee, an equivalent option with respect to the common stock of the acquiror. 

(d)    Termination
in the case of a Qualifying Termination.    If, prior to a Triggering Event, a grantee ceases to be an employee of the Company Group
by reason of a Qualifying Termination, all of the grantee's Options shall terminate immediately and in lieu thereof the grantee shall be entitled to 

5

 

receive a cash payment from the Company (the "Option Cash Payment") for each such canceled Option equal to the excess of the most recent board valuation of a share of common stock over the exercise
price of the canceled Option. 

(e)    Termination
Upon Termination of Employment Other than a Qualifying Termination.    If, prior to a Triggering Event, a grantee ceases to be an
employee of the Company Group by reason other than a Qualifying Termination, all of the grantee's Options shall terminate immediately and in lieu thereof the
grantee shall (if so provided in the applicable Option Agreement and provided further that such employee's employment was not terminated by a member of the Company Group for cause) be entitled to
receive an Option Cash Payment for each vested option which has been canceled equal to the excess of the most recent board valuation of a share of common stock over the exercise price of the canceled
Option. 

(f)    Manner
of Making Option Cash Payments.    Option Cash Payments may be: (i) made at the time of termination; (ii) deferred by the
Company until the occurrence of a Triggering Event; or (iii) paid in equal cash installments, with the first installment payable on the first anniversary of the effective date of termination of
the Option, and the remaining installments payable on the corresponding date in each of the next two years. Payments pursuant to (ii) and (iii) above shall include interest on the unpaid
principal computed at the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal for the first business day of the calendar quarter in which the termination of the Option occurs. 

(g)    Termination
at the election of the Company.    The Company may terminate any Option issued hereunder, effective on the seventh anniversary of
the date of grant of the Option, and before the Option becomes exerciseable, by giving notice to the option holder and making payment to the option holder in an amount equal to the number of shares
covered by the Option multiplied by the difference between the Fair Market Value per share, determined as of a date within three months prior to the effective date of the termination, and the exercise
price per share specified in the Option. 

 
 

ARTICLE 7    
    
    General Provisions    
  

        7.1    Adjustments.    Subject
to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
each Option, and the price per share thereof in each such Option shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock of the Company resulting
from a stock split (whether by subdivision or consolidation of shares) or the payment of a share dividend (but only on the Common Stock). In the event of any merger, consolidation (other than a
consolidation of shares covered by previous sentence), reorganization, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure, or other change in the shares of
Common Stock, the Committee may in its discretion make such adjustments in the number and type of shares authorized by the Plan, the number and type of shares covered by outstanding Options and the
option exercise prices specified therein as it determines to be appropriate and equitable (and such adjustment shall in no event be considered an amendment or modification of the Plan or any Options
hereunder). The issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or options or securities exercisable or convertible into shares of stock of any class, for cash or property, or for labor or
services either upon direct sale, or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon exercise or conversion of other securities, shall not affect, and
no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock then subject to any Options or authorized under the Plan. 

        7.2    Listing,
Registration and Compliance with Laws and Regulations.    Options shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time
the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares subject to the Options upon any securities exchange or under any state, federal, or
foreign securities or other law or regulation, or the consent or approval of any 

6

 

governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition to or in connection with the granting of the Options or the issuance or purchase of shares thereunder, no Options may be granted
or exercised, in whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee.
The holders of such Options shall supply the Company with such certificates, representations and information as the Company shall request and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company in obtaining
such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval. In the case of officers and other Persons subject to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the
Committee may at any time impose any limitations upon the exercise of an Option that, in the Board's discretion, are necessary or desirable in order to comply with such Section 16(b) and the
rules and regulations thereunder. If the Company, as part of an offering of securities or otherwise, finds it desirable because of federal, state, or foreign regulatory requirements to reduce the
period during which any Options may be exercised, the Committee, may, in its discretion and without the Participant's consent, so reduce such period on not less than 15 days written notice to
the holders thereof. 

        Subject
to the foregoing, if neither a Public Offering nor a Change of Control nor termination of the Options occurs on or before the seventh anniversary of the first date upon which a
Stock Option is issued then the Triggering Event will occur as to that Option on that date and grantee will receive that number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Options (subject to proper
exercise by the grantee and payment of the applicable exercise price), with delivery to be made by the Company as soon as reasonably practicable after the effective date of a registration statement
filed by the Company on Form S-1 or, if available, Form S-8 (or any successor form) with respect to such shares of Common Stock. The Company, under such
circumstances, shall file the applicable Securities Act registration form on or before the occurrence of the Triggering Event upon an Applicable Anniversary Date. 

        7.3    Nontransferability.    Options
are not negotiable, and may not be sold, given, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise
hypothecated by the grantee thereof. Any attempted transfer of an Option in violation of these prohibitions shall be void ab initio. Options may be
exercised only by the Participant (or his legal guardian or legal representative); provided that Incentive Stock Options may be exercised by such guardian or legal representative only if permitted by
the Code and any regulations promulgated thereunder. 

        7.4    Retention
of Company's Rights.    The Company's adoption of this Plan and its issuance of Options to the Participants hereunder
shall not interfere with or limit in any way the right of any member of the Company Group to terminate any Participant's employment at any time and for any reason, nor confer upon any Participant any
right to continue in the employ of any member of the Company Group for
any period of time or to continue his present (or any other) rate of compensation. No employee shall have a right to be selected as a Participant or, having been so selected, to be selected again as a
Participant. 

        7.5    Amendment,
Suspension and Termination of Plan.    The date of commencement of the Plan shall be March 1, 2001, subject to
approval by the shareholders of the Company. Unless previously terminated upon the adoption of a resolution of the Board terminating the Plan, the Plan shall terminate at the close of business on
February 28, 2011. No termination of the Plan shall materially and adversely affect any of the rights or obligations of any person, without his or her consent, under any grant of Options under
the Plan. 

        7.6    Amendment,
Modification and Cancellation of Outstanding Options.    The Board may amend or modify any Option in any manner to the
extent that the Board would have had the authority under the Plan initially to grant such Option; provided that no such amendment or modification shall impair the rights
of any Participant under any Option without the consent of a majority (based on the number of Option Shares (as defined in the Option Agreements) held) of the Participants whose Options are so
amended. With the Participant's consent, the Committee may cancel any Option and issue a new Option to such Participant.
