The Plan is intended to aid the Company in maintaining and developing a management team, attracting qualified officers and employees capable of assisting in the future success of the Company, and rewarding those individuals who have contributed to the success of the Company.

The above aims will be effectuated through the granting of options ("Options") to purchase shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the "Stock"), or the granting of awards of bonus stock ("Stock Awards"), all subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan.

16. ASSIGNMENT.

At the time of grant of an Option or Stock Award, the Board or duly authorized Committee. in its sole discretion, may impose restrictions on the transferability of such Option or Stock Award and provide that such Option shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in the Code and that, except as permitted by the foregoing, such Options or Stock Awards, granted under the Plan and the rights and privileges thereby conferred shall not be transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), and shall not be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process. On any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of the Option or Stock Award, or of any right or privilege conferred thereby, contrary to the provisions thereof, or on the levy of any attachment or similar process on such rights and privileges, the Option or Stock Award and such rights and privileges shall immediately become null and void.

17. ADDITIONAL TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF AWARDS

The Board or duly authorized committee shall have the right to impose additional limitations on individual awards under the Plan. For example, and without limiting the authority of the Board or a duly authorized committee, an individual award may be conditioned on continued employment for a specified period or may be voided based on the award holder's gross negligence in the performance of his or her duties, substantial failure to meet written standards established by the Company for the performance of his or her duties, criminal misconduct, or willful or gross misconduct in the performance of his or her duties. In addition, the Board or a duly authorized committee may establish additional rights in the holders of individual awards at the time of grant. For example, and without limiting the authority of the Board or a duly authorized committee, an individual award may include the right to immediate payment of the value inherent in the award on the occurrence of certain events such as a change in control of the Company, all on the terms and conditions set forth in the award at the time of grant. The Board or a duly authorized committee may. at the time of the grant of the Option or Stock Award, establish any other terms, restrictions, or provisions on the exercise of an Option or the holding of Stock subject to the Stock Award as it deems appropriate. All such terms, restrictions, and provisions must be set forth in writing at the time of grant in order to be effective.

18. DILUTION OR OTHER ADJUSTMENT

In the event that the number of shares of Stock of the Company from time to time issued and outstanding is increased pursuant to a stock split or a stock dividend, the number of shares of Stock then covered by each outstanding Option granted hereunder shall be increased proportionately, with no increase in the total purchase price of the shares then so covered, and the number of shares of Stock subject to the Plan shall be increased by the same proportion. Shares awarded under the terms of a Stock Award shall be entitled to the same rights as other issued and outstanding shares of Stock, whether or not then subject to Forfeiture Restrictions, although any additional shares of Stock issued to the holder of a Stock Award shall be subject to the same Forfeiture Restrictions as the Stock Award. In the event that the number of shares of Stock of the Company from time to time issued and outstanding is reduced by a combination or consolidation of shares, the number of shares of Stock then covered by each outstanding Option granted hereunder shall be reduced proportionately, with no reduction in the total purchase price of the shares then so covered, and the number of shares of Stock subject to the Plan shall be reduced by the same proportion. Shares awarded under a Stock Award shall be treated as other issued and outstanding shares of Stock, whether or not then subject to Forfeiture Restrictions. In the event that the Company should transfer assets to another corporation and distribute the stock of such other corporation without the surrender of Stock of the Company, and if such distribution is not taxable as a dividend and no gain or loss is recognized by reason of section 355 of the Code or any amendment or successor statute of like tenor, then the total purchase price of the Stock then covered by each outstanding Option shall be reduced by an amount that bears the same ratio to the total purchase price then in effect as the market value of the stock distributed in respect of a share of the Stock of the Company, immediately following the distribution, bears to the aggregate of the market value at such time of a share of the Stock of the Company plus the stock distributed in respect thereof. Shares issued under a Stock Award shall be treated as issued and outstanding whether or not subject to Forfeiture Restrictions, although any stock of the other corporation to be distributed with respect to the shares awarded under the Stock Award shall be subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions then applicable to such shares and may be held by the Company or otherwise subject to restrictions on transfer until the expiration of the Forfeiture Restrictions. In the event that the Company distributes the stock of a subsidiary to its shareholders, makes a distribution of a major portion of its assets, or otherwise distributes a significant portion of the value of its issued and outstanding Stock to its shareholders, the number of shares then subject to each outstanding Option and the Plan, or the exercise price of each outstanding Option, may be adjusted in the reasonable discretion of the Board or a duly authorized committee. Shares awarded under a Stock Award shall be treated as issued and outstanding, whether or not subject to Forfeiture Restrictions, although any Stock, assets, or other rights distributed shall be subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions governing the shares awarded under the Stock Award and, at the discretion of the Board or a duly authorized committee, may be held by the Company or otherwise subject to restrictions on transfer by the Company until the expiration of such Forfeiture Restrictions. All such adjustments shall be made by the Board or duly authorized committee, whose determination upon the same, absent demonstrable error, shall be final and binding on all participants under the Plan. No fractional shares shall be issued, and any fractional shares resulting from the computations pursuant to this section shall be eliminated from the respective Option or Stock Award. No adjustment shall be made for cash dividends, for the issuance of additional shares of Stock for consideration approved by the Board, or for the issuance to stockholders of rights to subscribe for additional Stock or other securities.

19. OPTIONS OR STOCK AWARDS TO FOREIGN NATIONALS

The Board or a duly authorized committee may, in order to fulfill the purposes of this Plan and without amending the Plan, grant Options or Stock Awards to foreign nationals or individuals residing in foreign countries that contain provisions, restrictions, and limitations different from those set forth in this Plan and the Options or Stock Awards made to United States residents in order to recognize differences among the countries in law, tax policy, and custom. Such grants shall be made in an attempt to provide such individuals with essentially the same benefits as contemplated by a grant to United States residents under the terms of this Plan.

20. LISTING AND REGISTRATION OF SHARES.

Unless otherwise expressly provided on the granting of an award under this Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to register any securities issued pursuant to this Plan or issuable on the exercise of Options granted hereunder. Each award shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time the Board or a duly authorized committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary or desirable to list, register, or qualify the shares covered thereby on any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or obtain the consent or approval of any governmental agency or regulatory body as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such award or the issuance or purchase of shares thereunder, such award may not be made or exercised in whole or in part unless and until such listing. registration, consent, or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board or a duly authorized committee.

21. EXPIRATION AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

The Plan may be abandoned or terminated at any time by the Board or a duly authorized committee except with respect to any Options or Stock Awards then outstanding under the Plan. The Plan shall otherwise terminate on the earlier of the date that is: (i) ten years after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board; or (ii) ten years after the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Company.

22. FORM OF AWARDS

Awards granted under the Plan shall be represented by a written agreement which shall be executed by the Company and which shall contain such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Board or a duly authorized committee and permitted under the terms of this Plan. Option agreements evidencing Incentive Options shall contain such terms and conditions, among others, as may be necessary in the opinion of the Board or a duly authorized committee to qualify them as incentive stock options under section 422 of the Code or any amendment or successor statute of like tenor.

23. NO RIGHT OF EMPLOYMENT

Nothing contained in this Plan or any Option or Stock Award shall be construed as conferring on a director, officer, or employee any right to continue or remain as a director, officer, or employee of the Company or its subsidiaries.

24. LEAVES OF ABSENCE

The Board or duly authorized committee shall be entitled to make such rules, regulations, and determinations as the Board or duly authorized committee deems appropriate under the Plan in respect of any leave of absence taken by the recipient of any Option or Stock Award. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Board or duly authorized committee shall be entitled to determine (a) whether or not any such leave of absence shall constitute a termination of employment within the meaning of the Plan, and (b) the impact, if any, of any such leave of absence on any Option or Stock Award under the Plan theretofore made to any recipient who takes such leave of absence.

  

12

  

 

25. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

The Board or a duly authorized committee may modify and amend the Plan in any respect; provided, however, that to the extent such amendment or modification would cause the Plan to no longer comply with the applicable provisions of the Code with respect to Incentive Options, such amendment or modification shall also be approved by the shareholders of the Company. Subject to the foregoing and, if the Company is subject to the provisions of 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the limitations of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act or any amendment or successor rule of like tenor, the Plan shall be deemed to be automatically amended as is necessary (i) with respect to the issuance of Incentive Options, to maintain the Plan in compliance with the provisions of section 422 of the Code, and regulations promulgated thereunder from time to time, or any amendment or successor statute thereto, and (ii) with respect to Options or Stock Awards granted to officers and directors of the Company, to maintain the awards made under the Plan in compliance with the provisions of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act or any amendment or successor rule of like tenor.

The Plan is intended to aid the Company in maintaining and developing a management team, attracting qualified officers and employees capable of assisting in the future success of the Company, and rewarding those individuals who have contributed to the success of the Company.

If at any time the governing provisions are amended to permit an Option to be granted or exercised or Stock Award to be granted pursuant to Rule 16b-3 or any amendment or successor rule of like tenor without one or more of the foregoing restrictions or limitations, or the terms of such restrictions or limitations are modified, the Board or a duly authorized committee may award Options or Stock Awards to directors and of dicers, and may modify outstanding Options or Stock Awards, in accordance with such changes, all to the extent that such action by the Board or a duly authorized committee does not disqualify the Options or Stock Awards from exemption under the provisions of Rule 16b-3 or any amendment or successor rule of similar tenor.

15. STOCK AWARDS

The Board or a duly authorized committee may grant Stock Awards to individuals eligible to participate in this Plan, in the amount, and subject to the provisions determined by the Board or a duly authorized committee. The Board or a duly authorized committee shall notify in writing each person selected to receive a Stock Award hereunder as soon as practicable after he or she has been so selected and shall inform such person of the number of shares he or she is entitled to receive, the approximate date on which such shares will be issued, and the Forfeiture Restrictions applicable to such shares. (For purposes hereof, the term "Forfeiture Restrictions" shall mean any prohibitions against sale or other transfer of shares of Stock granted under the Plan and the obligation of the holder to forfeit his or her ownership of or right to such shares and to surrender such shares to the Company on the occurrence of certain conditions.) The Board or a duly authorized committee may, at its discretion, require the payment in cash to the Company by the award recipient of the par value of the Stock. The shares of Stock issued pursuant to a Stock Award shall not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of during such period or periods of time which the Board or a duly authorized committee shall establish at the time of the grant of the Stock Award. If a Stock Award is made to an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries, the employee shall be obligated for no consideration other than the amount, if any, of the par value paid in cash for such shares, to forfeit and surrender such shares as he or shall have received under the Plan which are then subject to Forfeiture Restrictions to the Company if he or she is no longer an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries for any reason; provided that, in the event of termination of the employee's employment by reason of death or total and permanent disability, the Board or duly authorized committee, in its sole discretion, may cancel the Forfeiture Restrictions. Certificates representing shares subject to Forfeiture Restrictions shall be appropriately legend as determined by the Board or a duly authorized committee to reflect the Forfeiture Restrictions, and the Forfeiture Restrictions shall be binding on any transferee of the shares.

16. ASSIGNMENT.

At the time of grant of an Option or Stock Award, the Board or duly authorized Committee. in its sole discretion, may impose restrictions on the transferability of such Option or Stock Award and provide that such Option shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in the Code and that, except as permitted by the foregoing, such Options or Stock Awards, granted under the Plan and the rights and privileges thereby conferred shall not be transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), and shall not be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process. On any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of the Option or Stock Award, or of any right or privilege conferred thereby, contrary to the provisions thereof, or on the levy of any attachment or similar process on such rights and privileges, the Option or Stock Award and such rights and privileges shall immediately become null and void.

17. ADDITIONAL TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF AWARDS

The Board or duly authorized committee shall have the right to impose additional limitations on individual awards under the Plan. For example, and without limiting the authority of the Board or a duly authorized committee, an individual award may be conditioned on continued employment for a specified period or may be voided based on the award holder's gross negligence in the performance of his or her duties, substantial failure to meet written standards established by the Company for the performance of his or her duties, criminal misconduct, or willful or gross misconduct in the performance of his or her duties. In addition, the Board or a duly authorized committee may establish additional rights in the holders of individual awards at the time of grant. For example, and without limiting the authority of the Board or a duly authorized committee, an individual award may include the right to immediate payment of the value inherent in the award on the occurrence of certain events such as a change in control of the Company, all on the terms and conditions set forth in the award at the time of grant. The Board or a duly authorized committee may. at the time of the grant of the Option or Stock Award, establish any other terms, restrictions, or provisions on the exercise of an Option or the holding of Stock subject to the Stock Award as it deems appropriate. All such terms, restrictions, and provisions must be set forth in writing at the time of grant in order to be effective.

18. DILUTION OR OTHER ADJUSTMENT

In the event that the number of shares of Stock of the Company from time to time issued and outstanding is increased pursuant to a stock split or a stock dividend, the number of shares of Stock then covered by each outstanding Option granted hereunder shall be increased proportionately, with no increase in the total purchase price of the shares then so covered, and the number of shares of Stock subject to the Plan shall be increased by the same proportion. Shares awarded under the terms of a Stock Award shall be entitled to the same rights as other issued and outstanding shares of Stock, whether or not then subject to Forfeiture Restrictions, although any additional shares of Stock issued to the holder of a Stock Award shall be subject to the same Forfeiture Restrictions as the Stock Award. In the event that the number of shares of Stock of the Company from time to time issued and outstanding is reduced by a combination or consolidation of shares, the number of shares of Stock then covered by each outstanding Option granted hereunder shall be reduced proportionately, with no reduction in the total purchase price of the shares then so covered, and the number of shares of Stock subject to the Plan shall be reduced by the same proportion. Shares awarded under a Stock Award shall be treated as other issued and outstanding shares of Stock, whether or not then subject to Forfeiture Restrictions. In the event that the Company should transfer assets to another corporation and distribute the stock of such other corporation without the surrender of Stock of the Company, and if such distribution is not taxable as a dividend and no gain or loss is recognized by reason of section 355 of the Code or any amendment or successor statute of like tenor, then the total purchase price of the Stock then covered by each outstanding Option shall be reduced by an amount that bears the same ratio to the total purchase price then in effect as the market value of the stock distributed in respect of a share of the Stock of the Company, immediately following the distribution, bears to the aggregate of the market value at such time of a share of the Stock of the Company plus the stock distributed in respect thereof. Shares issued under a Stock Award shall be treated as issued and outstanding whether or not subject to Forfeiture Restrictions, although any stock of the other corporation to be distributed with respect to the shares awarded under the Stock Award shall be subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions then applicable to such shares and may be held by the Company or otherwise subject to restrictions on transfer until the expiration of the Forfeiture Restrictions. In the event that the Company distributes the stock of a subsidiary to its shareholders, makes a distribution of a major portion of its assets, or otherwise distributes a significant portion of the value of its issued and outstanding Stock to its shareholders, the number of shares then subject to each outstanding Option and the Plan, or the exercise price of each outstanding Option, may be adjusted in the reasonable discretion of the Board or a duly authorized committee. Shares awarded under a Stock Award shall be treated as issued and outstanding, whether or not subject to Forfeiture Restrictions, although any Stock, assets, or other rights distributed shall be subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions governing the shares awarded under the Stock Award and, at the discretion of the Board or a duly authorized committee, may be held by the Company or otherwise subject to restrictions on transfer by the Company until the expiration of such Forfeiture Restrictions. All such adjustments shall be made by the Board or duly authorized committee, whose determination upon the same, absent demonstrable error, shall be final and binding on all participants under the Plan. No fractional shares shall be issued, and any fractional shares resulting from the computations pursuant to this section shall be eliminated from the respective Option or Stock Award. No adjustment shall be made for cash dividends, for the issuance of additional shares of Stock for consideration approved by the Board, or for the issuance to stockholders of rights to subscribe for additional Stock or other securities.

19. OPTIONS OR STOCK AWARDS TO FOREIGN NATIONALS

The Board or a duly authorized committee may, in order to fulfill the purposes of this Plan and without amending the Plan, grant Options or Stock Awards to foreign nationals or individuals residing in foreign countries that contain provisions, restrictions, and limitations different from those set forth in this Plan and the Options or Stock Awards made to United States residents in order to recognize differences among the countries in law, tax policy, and custom. Such grants shall be made in an attempt to provide such individuals with essentially the same benefits as contemplated by a grant to United States residents under the terms of this Plan.

20. LISTING AND REGISTRATION OF SHARES.

Unless otherwise expressly provided on the granting of an award under this Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to register any securities issued pursuant to this Plan or issuable on the exercise of Options granted hereunder. Each award shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time the Board or a duly authorized committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary or desirable to list, register, or qualify the shares covered thereby on any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or obtain the consent or approval of any governmental agency or regulatory body as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such award or the issuance or purchase of shares thereunder, such award may not be made or exercised in whole or in part unless and until such listing. registration, consent, or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board or a duly authorized committee.

21. EXPIRATION AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

The Plan may be abandoned or terminated at any time by the Board or a duly authorized committee except with respect to any Options or Stock Awards then outstanding under the Plan. The Plan shall otherwise terminate on the earlier of the date that is: (i) ten years after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board; or (ii) ten years after the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Company.

22. FORM OF AWARDS

Awards granted under the Plan shall be represented by a written agreement which shall be executed by the Company and which shall contain such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Board or a duly authorized committee and permitted under the terms of this Plan. Option agreements evidencing Incentive Options shall contain such terms and conditions, among others, as may be necessary in the opinion of the Board or a duly authorized committee to qualify them as incentive stock options under section 422 of the Code or any amendment or successor statute of like tenor.

23. NO RIGHT OF EMPLOYMENT

Nothing contained in this Plan or any Option or Stock Award shall be construed as conferring on a director, officer, or employee any right to continue or remain as a director, officer, or employee of the Company or its subsidiaries.

24. LEAVES OF ABSENCE

The Board or duly authorized committee shall be entitled to make such rules, regulations, and determinations as the Board or duly authorized committee deems appropriate under the Plan in respect of any leave of absence taken by the recipient of any Option or Stock Award. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Board or duly authorized committee shall be entitled to determine (a) whether or not any such leave of absence shall constitute a termination of employment within the meaning of the Plan, and (b) the impact, if any, of any such leave of absence on any Option or Stock Award under the Plan theretofore made to any recipient who takes such leave of absence.

25. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

The Board or a duly authorized committee may modify and amend the Plan in any respect; provided, however, that to the extent such amendment or modification would cause the Plan to no longer comply with the applicable provisions of the Code with respect to Incentive Options, such amendment or modification shall also be approved by the shareholders of the Company. Subject to the foregoing and, if the Company is subject to the provisions of 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the limitations of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act or any amendment or successor rule of like tenor, the Plan shall be deemed to be automatically amended as is necessary (i) with respect to the issuance of Incentive Options, to maintain the Plan in compliance with the provisions of section 422 of the Code, and regulations promulgated thereunder from time to time, or any amendment or successor statute thereto, and (ii) with respect to Options or Stock Awards granted to officers and directors of the Company, to maintain the awards made under the Plan in compliance with the provisions of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act or any amendment or successor rule of like tenor.
