Unless provided otherwise below, the Incentive Stock Option shall expire on the earlier to occur of: (i) the 10th anniversary of the Grant Date or (ii) three months after the termination of your employment or other service relationship with the Company as described in the Plan. For purposes of the Incentive Stock Option, and as set forth in Section 14 of the Plan, you will continue to be deemed employed by the Company for so long as you (x) remain employed by the Company or any Subsidiary, regardless of any transfer between the Company or such Subsidiary or between Subsidiaries, or any transfer from one eligibility category under Section 4 of the Plan to another, or (y) are on an approved leave of absence from the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

In the event of the termination of your employment or other service relationship with the Company by reason of death or permanent disability, the Incentive Stock Option shall automatically vest and be exercisable in full effective upon such termination, and the period during which the Incentive Stock Option may be exercised (to the extent that it is exercisable on the date of such termination) shall be three years following the date of such termination, provided, however, that in no event shall such three-year period extend beyond the original term of the Incentive Stock Option. 

 

Notwithstanding anything in this Award Certificate to the contrary, (i) if you continue to provide services to the Company or any Subsidiary after your employment relationship terminates or if you otherwise exercise the Incentive Stock Option more than three months after the termination of such employment relationship, the Incentive Stock Option may not qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code, and (ii) for purposes of the foregoing clause (i), “employment relationship” means employment with the Company or any Subsidiary that is a “subsidiary corporation” (within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Code) and does not include any other type of service relationship.

 

The grant of the Incentive Stock Option does not infer any right to, or expectation of, the grant of any additional Options or other Awards on the same basis or at all, in any future year. Participation in the Plan shall in no way give you any rights to compensation for any claim of loss in relation to the Plan, including without limitation:
