Form of Option Agreement under the Automatic Option Grant Program

 Exhibit 10.18 
  
 BORLAND SOFTWARE CORPORATION 
  

AUTOMATIC STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
  
 RECITALS 
  
 A. The Corporation has implemented an automatic option grant program under the Plan pursuant to which eligible non-employee members of the Board will
automatically receive special option grants at periodic intervals over their period of Board service in order to provide such individuals with a meaningful incentive to continue to serve as members of the Board. 
  
 B. Optionee is an eligible non-employee Board member, and this Agreement is
executed pursuant to, and is intended to carry out the purposes of, the Plan in connection with the automatic grant of an option to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Plan. 
  
 C. All capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning assigned to them in the attached Appendix. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed as follows: 
  
 1. Grant of Option. The Corporation hereby grants to Optionee,
as of the Grant Date, a Non-Statutory Option to purchase up to the number of Option Shares specified in the Grant Notice. The Option Shares shall be purchasable from time to time during the option term specified in Paragraph 2 at the Exercise Price.

  
 2. Option Term. This option shall have a term of
ten (10) years measured from the Grant Date and shall accordingly expire at the close of business on the Expiration Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with Paragraph 5 or 6. 
  
 3. Limited Transferability. 
  
 (a) This option may be assigned in whole or in part during Optionee’s lifetime to one or more members of
Optionee’s family or to a trust established for the exclusive benefit of one or more such family members or to Optionee’s former spouse, to the extent such assignment is in connection with the Optionee’s estate plan or pursuant to a
domestic relations order. The assigned portion shall be exercisable only by the person or persons who acquire a proprietary interest in the option pursuant to such assignment. The terms applicable to the assigned portion shall be the same as those
in effect for this option immediately prior to such assignment. 
  
 (b) Should the Optionee die while holding this option, then this option shall be transferred in accordance with Optionee’s will or the laws of inheritance. However, Optionee may designate one or more persons as the beneficiary or
beneficiaries of this option, and this option shall, in accordance with such designation, automatically be transferred to such beneficiary or beneficiaries upon the Optionee’s death while holding this option. Such 

  

 1 

 
beneficiary or beneficiaries shall take the transferred option subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including (without limitation) the
limited time period during which this option may, pursuant to Paragraph 5, be exercised following Optionee’s death. 
  
 4. Exercisability/Vesting. 
  
 (a) This option shall be immediately exercisable for any or all of the Option Shares, whether or not the Option Shares are at the time vested in
accordance with the Vesting Schedule, and shall remain so exercisable until the Expiration Date or sooner termination of the option term under Paragraph 5 or 6. 
  

(b) Optionee shall, in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Grant Notice, vest in the Option Shares in a series of installments over
his or her period of Board service. The Option Shares shall, however, be subject to accelerated vesting pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 5, 6 or 7, but in no event shall any additional Option Shares vest following Optionee’s cessation of
service as a Board member. 
  
 5. Cessation of Board
Service. Should Optionee’s service as a Board member cease while this option remains outstanding, then the option term specified in Paragraph 2 shall terminate (and this option shall cease to be outstanding) prior to the Expiration Date
in accordance with the following provisions: 
  
 (a) Should
Optionee cease to serve as a Board member for any reason (other than death or Permanent Disability) while this option is outstanding, then the period during which this option may be exercised shall be reduced to a twelve (12)-month period measured
from the date of such cessation of Board service, but in no event shall this option be exercisable at any time after the Expiration Date. During such limited period of exercisability, Optionee (or the person or persons to whom this option is
transferred pursuant to a permitted transfer under Paragraph 3) may not exercise this option in the aggregate for more than the number of Option Shares (if any) in which Optionee is vested on the date of his or her cessation of Board service. Upon
the earlier of (i) the expiration of such twelve (12)-month period or (ii) the specified Expiration Date, the option shall terminate and cease to be exercisable with respect to any vested Option Shares for which the option has not been
exercised. 
  
 (b) Should Optionee die during the twelve
(12)-month period following his or her cessation of Board service but while this option is outstanding, then (i) the personal representative of Optionee’s estate or (ii) the person or persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant to
Optionee’s will or the laws of inheritance following Optionee’s death or to whom the option is transferred during Optionee’s lifetime pursuant to a permitted transfer under Paragraph 3 or (iii) the designated beneficiary or
beneficiaries of this option (as the case may be) shall have the right to exercise this option for any or all of the Option Shares in which Optionee is vested at the time of Optionee’s cessation of Board service (less any Option Shares
purchased by Optionee after such cessation of Board service but prior to death). Any such right 

  

 2 

 
to exercise this option shall terminate, and this option shall accordingly cease to be exercisable for such vested Option Shares, upon the earlier of
(i) the expiration of the twelve (12)-month period measured from the date of Optionee’s cessation of Board service or (ii) the specified Expiration Date. 
  

(c) Should Optionee cease service as a Board member by reason of death or Permanent Disability, then any Option Shares at the time subject to this
option but not otherwise vested shall vest in full so that this option may be exercised for any or all of the Option Shares as fully vested shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the twelve (12)-month
period measured from the date of Optionee’s cessation of Board service or (ii) the specified Expiration Date, whereupon this option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding. 
  
 (d) Upon Optionee’s cessation of Board service for any reason other than death or Permanent Disability, this option
shall immediately terminate and cease to be outstanding with respect to any and all Option Shares in which Optionee is not otherwise at that time vested in accordance with the normal Vesting Schedule or the special vesting acceleration provisions of
Paragraphs 6 and 7 below. 
  
 6. Change in Control.

  
 (a) In the event of a Change in Control effected during
Optionee’s period of Board service, any Option Shares at the time subject to this option but not otherwise vested shall automatically vest so that this option shall, immediately prior to the specified effective date for that Change in Control,
become exercisable for all of the Option Shares as fully vested shares of Common Stock and may be exercised for any or all of those vested shares. Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control, this option shall terminate and cease
to be outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation or its parent company or otherwise continued in effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction. 
  
 (b) If this option is assumed in connection with a Change in Control or
otherwise continued in effect, then this option shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change in Control, to apply to the number and class of securities which would have been issuable to Optionee in consummation of such Change in
Control had the option been exercised immediately prior to such Change in Control, and appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the Exercise Price, provided the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same. To the extent the actual
holders of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change in Control transaction, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption of this option,
substitute one or more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such Corporate Transaction. 
  

 3 

 7. Hostile Take-Over. 
  
 (a) In the event of a Hostile Take-Over effected during Optionee’s period of Board service, any Option Shares at the
time subject to this option but not otherwise vested shall automatically vest so that this option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of that Hostile Take-Over, become exercisable for all of the Option Shares as fully vested shares of
Common Stock and may be exercised for any or all of those vested shares. 
  
 (b) This option shall remain exercisable for such fully vested Option Shares until the earlier of (i) the specified Expiration Date or (ii) the sooner termination of this option in accordance with Paragraph 5
or 6. 
  
 8. Adjustment in Option Shares. Should any
change be made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt of
consideration, appropriate adjustments shall be made to (i) the total number and/or class of securities subject to this option and (ii) the Exercise Price in order to reflect such change and thereby preclude a dilution or enlargement of benefits
hereunder. 
  
 9. Stockholder Rights. The holder of
this option shall not have any stockholder rights with respect to the Option Shares until such person shall have exercised the option, paid the Exercise Price and become a holder of record of the purchased shares. 
  
 10. Manner of Exercising Option. 
  
 (a) In order to exercise this option with respect to all or any part of the
Option Shares for which this option is at the time exercisable, Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) must take the following actions: 
  
 (i) To the extent the option is exercised for vested Option Shares, execute and deliver to the Corporation
a Notice of Exercise for the Option Shares for which the option is exercised. To the extent this option is exercised for unvested Option Shares, execute and deliver to the Corporation a Purchase Agreement for those unvested Option Shares.

  
 (ii) Pay the aggregate Exercise Price for
the purchased shares in one or more of the following forms: 
  
 (A) cash or check made payable to the Corporation, shares of Common Stock held by Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the
Corporation’s earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date, or through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option)
shall 

  

 4 

 
concurrently provide irrevocable instructions (i) to a brokerage firm (reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation for purposes of administering such
procedure) to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchased shares plus all
applicable income and employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (ii) to the Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm on the settlement date in
order to complete the sale. 
  
 (iii) Furnish to
the Corporation appropriate documentation that the person or persons exercising the option (if other than Optionee) have the right to exercise this option. 
  
 (b) Except to the extent the sale and remittance procedure is utilized in connection with the option exercise, payment of the Exercise Price must
accompany the Notice of Exercise (or the Purchase Agreement) delivered to the Corporation in connection with the option exercise. 
  
 (c) As soon after the Exercise Date as practical, the Corporation shall direct its transfer agent to issue to or on behalf of Optionee (or any other
person or persons exercising this option) a certificate for the purchased Option Shares, with the appropriate legends affixed thereto. To the extent any such Option Shares are unvested, the certificates for those Option Shares shall be endorsed with
an appropriate legend evidencing the Corporation’s repurchase rights and may be held in escrow with the Corporation until such shares vest. 
  
 (d) In no event may this option be exercised for any fractional shares. 
  
 11. No Impairment of Rights. This Agreement shall not in any way affect the right of the Corporation to
adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise make changes in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. In addition, this Agreement shall not in any
way be construed or interpreted so as to affect adversely or otherwise impair the right of the Corporation or the stockholders to remove Optionee from the Board at any time in accordance with the provisions of applicable law. 
  
 12. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. 
  
 (a) The exercise of this option and the issuance of the Option Shares upon
such exercise shall be subject to compliance by the Corporation and Optionee with all applicable requirements of law relating thereto and with all applicable regulations of any stock exchange (or the Nasdaq National Market, if applicable) on which
the Common Stock may be listed for trading at the time of such exercise and issuance. 
  

 5 

 (b) The inability of the Corporation to obtain approval from any regulatory body having authority deemed
by the Corporation to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Common Stock pursuant to this option shall relieve the Corporation of any liability with respect to the non-issuance or sale of the Common Stock as to which such approval
shall not have been obtained. The Corporation, however, shall use reasonable efforts to obtain all such approvals. 
  
 13. Successors and Assigns. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Paragraph 3 or 6, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of, and be binding upon, the Corporation and its successors and assigns and Optionee, Optionee’s assigns, the legal representatives, heirs and legatees of Optionee’s estate and any beneficiaries of this option designated by
Optionee. 
  
 14. Notices. Any notice required to be
given or delivered to the Corporation under the terms of this Agreement shall be in either written or electronic format and delivered to the Stock Administrator of the Corporation at its principal corporate offices. Any notice required to be given
or delivered to Optionee shall be in writing and addressed to Optionee at the address indicated below Optionee’s signature line on the Grant Notice. All notices shall be deemed effective upon personal or electronic delivery or upon deposit in
the U.S. mail, postage prepaid and properly addressed to the party to be notified. 
  
 15. Construction. This Agreement and the option evidenced hereby are made and granted pursuant to the Plan and are in all respects limited by and subject to the terms of the Plan. 
  
 16. Governing Law. The interpretation, performance and
enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to the conflict-of-laws rules thereof or of any other jurisdiction.

 Exhibit 10.19

 ADDENDUM 
 TO 
 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

  
 The following provisions are hereby incorporated into, and
are hereby made a part of, that certain Stock Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) by and between Borland Software Corporation (the “Corporation”) and
[                ] (“Optionee”) evidencing the stock option (the “Option”) granted to Optionee under the terms of the Corporation’s 2002
Stock Incentive Plan, and such provisions are effective immediately. All capitalized terms in this Addendum, to the extent not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Option Agreement. 
  
 SPECIAL ACCELERATION 
  
 1. To the extent the Option is assumed in connection with a Change in Control
or otherwise continued in effect or replaced with a substitute option, the Option (or such substitute option) shall not accelerate to any extent upon the occurrence of that Change in Control, and the Option (or such substitute option) shall
accordingly continue, over Optionee’s period of Service after the Change in Control, to become exercisable for the Option Shares in one or more installments in accordance with the provisions of the Option Agreement. However, upon termination of
Optionee’s status as an Employee of the Corporation for any reason other than for [Misconduct/Cause] as such term is defined in Optionee’s offer letter dated
[                        ] (the “Offer Letter”) or upon Optionee’s [Involuntary Termination/Constructive
Termination] (as such term is defined in the Offer Letter) within twelve (12) months following such a Change in Control, then the Option (or such substitute option), to the extent outstanding at the time but not otherwise fully exercisable, shall
automatically accelerate so that the Optionee shall be credited with an additional twelve (12) months of Service for purposes of the Vesting Schedule and such Option (or substitute option) may be exercised for any or all of those accelerated Option
Shares (or other securities) as fully-vested shares, together with any other Option Shares (or other securities) for which the Option has already become vested and exercisable in accordance with the normal Vesting Schedule. 
  
 2. In the event of any conflict, ambiguity, or inconsistency between the
provisions of the Option Agreement and the provisions of this Addendum, to the extent possible such provisions will be interpreted so as to resolve any such conflict, ambiguity, or inconsistency, and if that is not possible, the provisions of the
this Addendum will prevail. 
  
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borland
Software Corporation has caused this Addendum to be executed by its duly authorized officer as of the Effective Date specified below.
