2011 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS 
1.Grant of Restricted Stock Unit.  The Company hereby grants to the Participant an award of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”), as set forth in the Notice of Grant, subject to the terms and conditions in this agreement (the “Agreement”) and in the Company's 2001 Stock Plan (the “Plan”).
2.Company's Obligation.  Each RSU represents the right to receive a Share on the vesting date.  Unless and until the RSUs vest, the Participant will have no right to receive Shares under such RSUs.  Prior to actual distribution of Shares pursuant to any vested RSUs, such RSUs will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company.
3.Vesting Schedule.  The RSUs awarded by this Agreement will vest in the Participant according to the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Grant.
4.Forfeiture upon Termination as Service Provider.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement or the Notice of Grant, if the Participant terminates as a Service Provider for any or no reason prior to vesting, the unvested RSUs awarded by this Agreement will thereupon be forfeited at no cost to the Company.
5.Payment after Vesting.  Any RSUs that vest in accordance with paragraph 3 will be paid to the Participant (or in the event of the Participant's death, to his or her estate) in Shares, provided that to the extent determined appropriate by the Company, the minimum statutorily required federal, state and local withholding taxes with respect to such RSUs will be paid by reducing the number of vested RSUs actually paid to the Participant.
6.Payments after Death.  Any distribution or delivery to be made to the Participant under this Agreement will, if the Participant is then deceased, be made to the administrator or executor of the Participant's estate.  Any such administrator or executor must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.
7.Rights as Stockholder.  Neither the Participant nor any person claiming under or through the Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Participant or Participant's broker.
8.Grant is Not Transferable.  Except to the limited extent provided in paragraph 6, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby will not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process.  Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this grant, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void.
9.Binding Agreement.  Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this grant contained herein, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
10.Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock.  If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance of Shares to the Participant (or his or her estate), such 

issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval will have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company.  The Company will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any such state or federal law or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental authority.  
11.Plan Governs.  This Agreement and the Notice of Grant are subject to all terms and provisions of the Plan.  In the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of this Agreement or the Notice of Grant and one or more provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will govern.
By your signature and the signature of the Company's representative below, you and the Company agree that this Award is granted under and governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement.  Participant has reviewed the Plan and this Agreement in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Agreement and fully understands all provisions of the Plan and this Agreement.  Participant hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions relating to the Plan and this Agreement.

	5.
	Tax Consequences.  

Some of the federal tax consequences relating to this Option, as of the date of this Option, are set forth below.

(a)     Exercising the Option.  The Optionee may incur regular federal income tax liability upon exercise of a Nonstatutory Stock Option.  The Optionee will be treated as having received compensation income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the exercised shares on the date of exercise over their aggregate Exercise Price.
(b)    Disposition of Shares.  If the Optionee holds NSO Shares for at least one year, any gain 

realized on disposition of the Shares will be treated as long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes.

This agreement is governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of California.

By your signature and the signature of the Company's representative below, you and the Company agree that this Option is granted under and governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option Agreement.  Optionee has reviewed the Plan and this Option Agreement in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Agreement and fully understands all provisions of the Plan and this Option Agreement.
