                                      (i)          GENERAL. The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a Committee or Committees of one or more members of the Board, and the term “Committee” shall apply to any person or persons to whom such authority has been delegated. If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board, including the power to delegate to a subcommittee any of the administrative powers the Committee is authorized to exercise (and references in this Plan to the Board shall thereafter be to the Committee or subcommittee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent

of recognition of income resulting from such Stock Award or (2) not persons with respect to whom the Company wishes to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code and/or) (ii) delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board who are not Non-Employee Directors the authority to grant Stock Awards to eligible persons who are not then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

          4.          SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.

5

                       (b)          REVERSION OF SHARES TO THE SHARE RESERVE. If any Stock Award shall for any reason expire or otherwise terminate, in whole or in part, without having been exercised in full (or vested in the case of Restricted Stock), the stock not acquired under such Stock Award shall revert to and again become available for issuance under the Plan. If any Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall for any reason be repurchased by the Company under an unvested share repurchase option provided under the Plan, the stock repurchased by the Company under such repurchase option shall not revert to and again become available for issuance under the Plan. 

                       (c)          SOURCE OF SHARES. The stock subject to the Plan may be unissued shares or reacquired shares, bought on the market or otherwise. 

          5.          ELIGIBILITY.

                       (a)          ELIGIBILITY FOR SPECIFIC STOCK AWARDS. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. Stock Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted to Employees, Directors and Consultants. 

                       (b)          TEN PERCENT SHAREHOLDERS. No Ten Percent Shareholder shall be eligible for the grant of an Incentive Stock Option unless the exercise price of such Option is at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the date of grant and the Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant. 

          Prior to the Listing Date, no Ten Percent Shareholder shall be eligible for the grant of a Nonstatutory Stock Option unless the exercise price of such Option is at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the date of grant.

          Prior to the Listing Date, no Ten Percent Shareholder shall be eligible for a restricted stock award unless the purchase price of the restricted stock is at least one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the date of grant.

                       (c)          SECTION 162(m) LIMITATION. Subject to the provisions of Section 11 relating to adjustments upon changes in stock, no employee shall be eligible to be granted Options covering more than 100,000 shares of the Common Stock during any calendar year. This subsection 5(c) shall not apply prior to the Listing Date and, following the Listing Date, this subsection 5(c) shall not apply until 

                                      (i)          the earliest of: (1) the first material modification of the Plan (including any increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan in accordance with Section 4); (2) the issuance of all of the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan; (3) the expiration of the Plan; or (4) the first meeting of shareholders at which Directors of the Company are to be elected that occurs after the close of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which occurred the first registration of an equity security under Section 12 of the Exchange Act; or 

6

                                      (ii)          such other date required by Section 162(m) of the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 

          6.          OPTION PROVISIONS.

          Each Option shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. All Options shall be separately designated Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options at the time of grant, and a separate certificate or certificates will be issued for shares purchased on exercise of each type of Option. The provisions of separate Options need not be identical, but each Option shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the Option or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:

                       (a)          TERM. Subject to the provisions of subsection 5(b) regarding Ten Percent Shareholders, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it was granted. 

                       (b)          EXERCISE PRICE OF AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. Subject to the provisions of subsection 5(b) regarding Ten Percent Shareholders, the exercise price of each Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the stock subject to the Option on the date the Option is granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Incentive Stock Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code. 

                       (c)          EXERCISE PRICE OF A NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION.  Subject to the provisions of subsection 5(b) regarding Ten Percent Shareholders, the exercise price of each Nonstatutory Stock Option granted prior to the Listing Date shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the stock subject to the Option on the date the Option is granted.  The exercise price of each Nonstatutory Stock Option granted on or after the Listing Date shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the stock subject to the Option on the date the Option is granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Nonstatutory Stock Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if
such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code.

                       (d)          CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations, either (i) in cash at the time the Option is exercised or (ii) at the discretion of the Board at the time of the grant of the Option (or subsequently in the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option) by (1) delivery to the Company of other Common Stock, (2) according to a deferred payment or other arrangement (which may include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of other Common Stock) with the Participant or (3) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board; provided, however, that at any time that the Company is incorporated in Delaware,
payment of the Common Stock’s “par value,” as defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law, shall not be made by deferred payment.

7

          In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest shall be compounded at least annually and shall be charged at the minimum rate of interest necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable provisions of the Code, of any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest under the deferred payment arrangement.

                       (e)          TRANSFERABILITY OF AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. An Incentive Stock Option shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 6(e), the Optionholder may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

                       (f)          TRANSFERABILITY OF A NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION.  A Nonstatutory Stock Option granted prior to the Listing Date shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder.  A Nonstatutory Stock Option granted on or after the Listing Date shall be transferable to the extent provided in the Option Agreement.  If the Nonstatutory Stock Option does not provide for transferability, then the Nonstatutory Stock Option shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
subsection 6(f), the Optionholder may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

                       (g)          VESTING GENERALLY. The total number of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option may, but need not, vest and therefore become exercisable in periodic installments which may, but need not, be equal. The Option may be subject to such other terms and conditions on the time or times when it may be exercised (which may be based on performance or other criteria) as the Board may deem appropriate. The vesting provisions of individual Options may vary. The provisions of this subsection 6(g) are subject to any Option provisions governing the minimum number of shares as to which an Option may be exercised.

                       (h)          MINIMUM VESTING PRIOR TO THE LISTING DATE. Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection 6(g), Options granted prior to the Listing Date shall provide for vesting of the total number of shares at a rate of at least twenty percent (20%) per year over five (5) years from the date the Option was granted, subject to reasonable conditions such as continued employment. However, in the case of such Options granted to Officers, Directors or Consultants, the Option may become fully exercisable, subject to reasonable conditions such as continued employment, at any time or during any period established by the Company; for example, the vesting provision of the Option may provide for vesting of less than twenty percent (20%) per year of the total number of shares
subject to the Option.

                       (i)          TERMINATION OF CONTINUOUS SERVICE. In the event an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates (other than upon the Optionholder’s death or Disability), the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise it as of the date of termination) but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date three (3) months following the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service (or such longer or shorter period specified in the Option Agreement, which, for Options granted prior to the Listing Date, shall not be less than thirty (30) days, unless such termination is for cause), or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option
Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified in the Option Agreement, the Option shall terminate.

8

                       (j)          EXTENSION OF TERMINATION DATE. An Optionholder’s Option Agreement may also provide that if the exercise of the Option following the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service (other than upon the Optionholder’s death or Disability) would be prohibited at any time solely because the issuance of shares would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of the term of the Option set forth in subsection 6(a) or (ii) the expiration of a period of three (3) months after the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service during which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such registration requirements. 

                       (k)          DISABILITY OF OPTIONHOLDER. In the event an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder’s Disability, the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise it as of the date of termination), but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of 

                                      (i)          the date twelve (12) months following such termination (or such longer or shorter period specified in the Option Agreement, which, for Options granted prior to the Listing Date, shall not be less than six (6) months) or 

                                      (ii)          the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement.  If, after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

                       (l)          DEATH OF OPTIONHOLDER.  In the event (i) an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder’s death or (ii) the Optionholder dies within the period (if any) specified in the Option Agreement after the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service for a reason other than death, then the Option may be exercised (to the extent the Optionholder was entitled to exercise the Option as of the date of death) by the Optionholder’s estate, by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance or by a person designated to exercise the option upon the Optionholder’s death pursuant to subsection 6(e) or 6(f), but only within the period ending on the earlier of
(1) the date eighteen (18) months following the date of death (or such longer or shorter period specified in the Option Agreement, which, for Options granted prior to the Listing Date, shall not be less than six (6) months) or (2) the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement.  If, after death, the Option is not exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

          7.          PROVISIONS OF STOCK AWARDS OTHER THAN OPTIONS.

                       (a)          STOCK BONUS AWARDS. Each stock bonus agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate.  The terms and conditions of stock bonus agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate stock bonus agreements need not be identical, but each stock bonus agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions: 

                                      (i)          CONSIDERATION. A stock bonus shall be awarded in consideration for past services actually rendered to the Company for its benefit.

                                      (ii)          VESTING.  Shares of Common Stock awarded under the stock bonus agreement may, but need not, be subject to a share repurchase option in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board. 

                                      (iii)          TERMINATION OF PARTICIPANT’S CONTINUOUS SERVICE.  Subject to the “Repurchase Limitation” in subsection 10(h), in the event a Participant’s Continuous Service terminates, the Company may reacquire any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by the Participant which have not vested as of the date of termination under the terms of the stock bonus agreement.

                                      (iv)          TRANSFERABILITY. For a stock bonus award made before the Listing Date, rights to acquire shares under the stock bonus agreement shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant.  For a stock bonus award made on or after the Listing Date, rights to acquire shares under the stock bonus agreement shall be transferable by the Participant only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the stock bonus agreement, as the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long as stock awarded under the stock bonus agreement remains subject to the terms of
the stock bonus agreement.

                       (b)          RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS.  Each restricted stock purchase agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate.  The terms and conditions of the restricted stock purchase agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate restricted stock purchase agreements need not be identical, but each restricted stock purchase agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions: 

                                      (i)          PURCHASE PRICE. Subject to the provisions of subsection 5(b) regarding Ten Percent Shareholders, the purchase price under each restricted stock purchase agreement shall be such amount as the Board shall determine and designate in such restricted stock purchase agreement.  For restricted stock awards made prior to the Listing Date, the purchase price shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the stock’s Fair Market Value on the date such award is made or at the time the purchase is consummated. For restricted stock awards made on or after the Listing Date, the purchase price shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the stock’s
Fair Market Value on the date such award is made or at the time the purchase is consummated. 

10

                                      (ii)          CONSIDERATION. The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to the restricted stock purchase agreement shall be paid either: (i) in cash at the time of purchase; (ii) at the discretion of the Board, according to a deferred payment or other arrangement with the Participant; or (iii) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board in its discretion; provided, however, that at any time that the Company is incorporated in Delaware, then payment of the Common Stock’s “par value,” as defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law, shall not be made by deferred payment.

                                      (iii)          VESTING. Subject to the “Repurchase Limitation” in subsection 10(h), shares of Common Stock acquired under the restricted stock purchase agreement may, but need not, be subject to a share repurchase option in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board.

                                      (iv)          TERMINATION OF PARTICIPANT’S CONTINUOUS SERVICE. Subject to the “Repurchase Limitation” in subsection 10(h), in the event a Participant’s Continuous Service terminates, the Company may repurchase or otherwise reacquire any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by the Participant which have not vested as of the date of termination under the terms of the restricted stock purchase agreement.

                                      (v)          TRANSFERABILITY. For a restricted stock award made before the Listing Date, rights to acquire shares under the restricted stock purchase agreement shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant.  For a restricted stock award made on or after the Listing Date, rights to acquire shares under the restricted stock purchase agreement shall be transferable by the Participant only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the restricted stock purchase agreement, as the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long as stock awarded under the
restricted stock purchase agreement remains subject to the terms of the restricted stock purchase agreement.

          8.          COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

                       (a)          AVAILABILITY OF SHARES.  During the terms of the Stock Awards, the Company shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common Stock required to satisfy such Stock Awards.

                       (b)          SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. The Company shall seek to obtain from each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to grant Stock Awards and to issue and sell shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Stock Awards; provided, however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act the Plan, any Stock Award or any stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such Stock Award.  If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of stock under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and
sell stock upon exercise of such Stock Awards unless and until such authority is obtained.

11

          9.          USE OF PROCEEDS FROM STOCK.  Proceeds from the sale of stock pursuant to Stock Awards shall constitute general funds of the Company. 

          10.         MISCELLANEOUS.

                       (a)          ACCELERATION OF EXERCISABILITY AND VESTING.  The Board shall have the power to accelerate the time at which a Stock Award may first be exercised or the time during which a Stock Award or any part thereof will vest in accordance with the Plan, notwithstanding the provisions in the Stock Award stating the time at which it may first be exercised or the time during which it will vest. 

                       (b)          SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS.  No Participant shall be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares subject to such Stock Award unless and until such Participant has satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Stock Award pursuant to its terms. 

                       (c)          NO EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER SERVICE RIGHTS. Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed or Stock Award granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Participant or other holder of Stock Awards any right to continue to serve the Company or an Affiliate in the capacity in effect at the time the Stock Award was granted or shall affect the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate (i) the employment of an Employee with or without notice and with or without cause, (ii) the service of a Consultant pursuant to the terms of such Consultant’s agreement with the Company or an Affiliate or (iii) the service of a Director pursuant to the Bylaws of the Company or an Affiliate, and any applicable provisions of the corporate law of the state in which the
Company or the Affiliate is incorporated, as the case may be. 

                       (d)          INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION $100,000 LIMITATION.  To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any Optionholder during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its Affiliates) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), the Options or portions thereof which exceed such limit (according to the order in which they were granted) shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options.

                       (e)          INVESTMENT ASSURANCES. The Company may require a Participant, as a condition of exercising or acquiring stock under any Stock Award, (i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the Participant’s knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who is knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business matters and that he or she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Stock Award; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that the Participant is acquiring the stock subject to the Stock Award for the Participant’s own account
and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the stock.  The foregoing requirements, and any assurances 

12

given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if (iii) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise or acquisition of stock under the Stock Award has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (iv) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities laws. The Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place legends on stock certificates issued under the Plan as such counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to comply with applicable securities laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting the transfer of the stock. 

                       (f)          WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS. To the extent provided by the terms of a Stock Award Agreement, the Participant may satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or acquisition of stock under a Stock Award by any of the following means (in addition to the Company’s right to withhold from any compensation paid to the Participant by the Company) or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold shares from the shares of the Common Stock otherwise issuable to the participant as a result of the exercise or acquisition of stock under the Stock Award; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered shares of the Common Stock.

                       (g)          INFORMATION OBLIGATION. Prior to the Listing Date, to the extent required by Section 260.140.46 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations, the Company shall deliver financial statements to Participants at least annually. This subsection 10(g) shall not apply to key Employees whose duties in connection with the Company assure them access to equivalent information.

                       (h)          REPURCHASE LIMITATION. The terms of any repurchase option shall be specified in the Stock Award and may be either at Fair Market Value at the time of repurchase or at not less than the original purchase price. To the extent required by Section 260.140.41 and Section 260.140.42 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations, any repurchase option contained in a Stock Award granted prior to the Listing Date to a person who is not an Officer, Director or Consultant shall be upon the terms described below:

                                      (i)          FAIR MARKET VALUE. If the repurchase option gives the Company the right to repurchase the shares upon termination of employment at not less than the Fair Market Value of the shares to be purchased on the date of termination of Continuous Service, then (i) the right to repurchase shall be exercised for cash or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness for the shares within ninety (90) days of termination of Continuous Service (or in the case of shares issued upon exercise of Stock Awards after such date of termination, within ninety (90) days after the date of the exercise) or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Company and the Participant (for example,
for purposes of satisfying the requirements of Section 1202(c)(3) of the Code regarding “qualified small business stock”) and (ii) the right terminates when the shares become publicly traded.

                                      (ii)          ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE. If the repurchase option gives the Company the right to repurchase the shares upon termination of Continuous Service at the original purchase price, then (i) the right to repurchase at the original purchase price shall lapse at the rate of at least twenty percent (20%) of the shares per year over five (5) years from the date 

13

the Stock Award is granted (without respect to the date the Stock Award was exercised or became exercisable) and (ii) the right to repurchase shall be exercised for cash or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness for the shares within ninety (90) days of termination of Continuous Service (or in the case of shares issued upon exercise of Options after such date of termination, within ninety (90) days after the date of the exercise) or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Company and the Participant (for example, for purposes of satisfying the requirements of Section 1202(c)(3) of the Code regarding “qualified small business stock”).

          11.         ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK.

                       (a)          CAPITALIZATION ADJUSTMENTS.  If any change is made in the stock subject to the Plan, or subject to any Stock Award, without the receipt of consideration by the Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of securities subject to the Plan pursuant to subsection 4(a) and the maximum number of securities subject to award to any person pursuant to subsection 5(c), and the outstanding Stock Awards
will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and number of securities and price per share of stock subject to such outstanding Stock Awards. The Board, the determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive, shall make such adjustments.  (The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a transaction “without receipt of consideration” by the Company.)

                       (b)          DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION. In the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company other than in an Acquisition (as defined below), then such Stock Awards shall be terminated if not exercised (if applicable) prior to such event, unless such outstanding Stock Awards are assumed by a subsequent purchaser.

                       (c)          CHANGE IN CONTROL.

                                     (i)          For the purposes of this Section 11, “Acquisition” shall mean (1) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity or person in which the shareholders of the Company prior to such consolidation or merger own less than fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s voting power immediately after such consolidation or merger, excluding any consolidation or merger effected exclusively to change the domicile of the Company; or (2) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

                                     (ii)          In the event the Company undergoes an Acquisition then any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation shall assume any Stock Awards outstanding under the Plan or shall substitute similar stock awards (including an award to acquire the same consideration paid to the shareholders in the transaction described in this subsection 11(c)) for those outstanding under the Plan.

                                     (iii)          In the event any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation in an Acquisition refuses to assume such Stock Awards or to substitute similar stock awards for those outstanding under the Plan, then with respect to (1) Stock Awards which (i) are held by 

14

Participants whose Continuous Service has not terminated prior to such event, and (ii) would otherwise vest and become exercisable within one (1) year of the closing of the Acquisition, the vesting of such Stock Awards (and, if applicable, the time during which such Stock Awards may be exercised) shall be accelerated and made fully exercisable at least thirty (30) days prior to the closing of the Acquisition (and the Stock Awards terminated if not exercised prior to the closing of such  Acquisition), and (2) any other Stock Awards outstanding under the Plan, such Stock Awards shall be terminated if not exercised prior to the closing of the Acquisition.. 

                                     (iv)          In the event the Company undergoes an Acquisition and the surviving corporation or acquiring corporation does assume such Stock Awards (or substitutes similar stock awards for those outstanding under the Plan), then, with respect to each Stock Award held by persons then performing services as Employees or Directors, the vesting of each such Stock Award (and, if applicable, the time during which such Stock Award may be exercised) shall be accelerated and such Stock Award shall become fully vested and exercisable, if any of the following events occurs within one (1) month before or eighteen (18) months after the effective date of the Acquisition: (1) the service to the
Company or an Affiliate of the Employee or Director holding such Stock Award is terminated without Cause (as defined below); (2) the Employee holding such Stock Award terminates his or her service to the Company or an Affiliate due to the fact that the principal place of the performance of the responsibilities and duties of the Employee is changed to a location more than fifty (50) miles from such Employee’s existing work location without the Employee’s express consent (not applicable to Directors); or (3) the Employee holding such Stock Award terminates his or her service to the Company or Affiliate due to the fact that there is a material reduction in such Employee’s responsibilities and duties without the Employee’s express consent (not applicable to Directors).

                                     (v)          For the purposes of this Section 11(c), “Cause” means an individual’s misconduct, including but not limited to: (1) conviction of any felony or any crime involving moral turpitude or dishonesty, (2) participation in a fraud or act of dishonesty against the Company, (3) conduct that, based upon a good faith and reasonable factual investigation and determination by the Board, demonstrates your gross unfitness to serve, or (4) intentional, material violation of any contract with the Company or any statutory duty to the Company that is not corrected within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof. Physical or mental disability shall not
constitute “Cause.”

                                     (vi)          The acceleration of vesting provided for under this Section 11(c) may be limited in certain circumstances as follows:  If any such acceleration (the “Benefit”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for such acceleration, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then such Benefit shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Benefit would be subject to such excise tax, as determined in good faith by the Company; provided, however, that if, in the absence of any such reduction (or after such reduction), such Employee believes
that the Benefit or any portion thereof (as reduced, if applicable) would be subject to such excise tax, the Benefit shall be reduced (or further reduced) to the extent determined by such Employee in his or her discretion so that the excise tax would not apply.  If, notwithstanding any such reduction (or in the absence of such reduction), the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) determines that such Employee is liable for the excise tax as a result of the Benefit, then such Employee 

15

shall be obligated to return to the Company, within thirty (30) days of such determination by the IRS, a portion of the Benefit sufficient such that none of the Benefit retained by such Employee constitutes a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code that is subject to the excise tax. 

          12.         AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND STOCK AWARDS.

                       (a)          AMENDMENT OF PLAN. The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the Plan. However, except as provided in Section 11 relating to adjustments upon changes in stock, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the shareholders of the Company to the extent shareholder approval is necessary to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, Rule 16b-3 or any NASDAQ or securities exchange listing requirements.

                       (b)          SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. The Board may, in its sole discretion, submit any other amendment to the Plan for shareholder approval, including, but not limited to, amendments to the Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder regarding the exclusion of performance-based compensation from the limit on corporate deductibility of compensation paid to certain executive officers.

                       (c)          CONTEMPLATED AMENDMENTS.  It is expressly contemplated that the Board may amend the Plan in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable to provide eligible Employees with the maximum benefits provided or to be provided under the provisions of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder relating to Incentive Stock Options and/or to bring the Plan and/or Incentive Stock Options granted under it into compliance therewith.

                       (d)          NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS. Rights under any Stock Award granted before amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the Participant and (ii) the Participant consents in writing.

                       (e)          AMENDMENT OF STOCK AWARDS. The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the terms of any one or more Stock Awards; provided, however, that the rights under any Stock Award shall not be impaired by any such amendment unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the Participant and (ii) the Participant consents in writing.

          13.         TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.

                       (a)          PLAN TERM. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. Unless sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the day before the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or approved by the shareholders of the Company, whichever is earlier.  No Stock Awards may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.

                       (b)          NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS. Suspension or termination of the Plan shall not impair rights and obligations under any Stock Award granted while the Plan is in effect except with the written consent of the Participant.

16

          14.         EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.

          The Plan shall become effective as determined by the Board, but no Stock Award shall be exercised (or, in the case of a stock bonus, shall be granted) unless and until the Plan has been approved by the shareholders of the Company, which approval shall be within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board.

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

NITCHES, INC. 2006 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

(INCENTIVE AND NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS)

          Pursuant to the Stock Option Grant Notice (“Grant Notice”) and this Stock Option Agreement, Nitches, Inc.. (the “Company”) has granted you an option under its 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock indicated in the Grant Notice at the exercise price indicated in the Grant Notice. Defined terms not explicitly defined in this Stock Option Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the same definitions as in the Plan.

          The details of your option are as follows:

          1.          VESTING. Subject to the limitations contained herein, your option will vest as provided in the Grant Notice, provided that vesting will cease upon the termination of your Continuous Service.

          2.          NUMBER OF SHARES AND EXERCISE PRICE. The number of shares subject to your option and your exercise price per share referenced in the Grant Notice may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization Adjustments, as provided in the Plan.

          3.          METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the exercise price is due in full upon exercise of all or any part of your option. You may elect to make payment of the exercise price in cash or by check or in any other manner PERMITTED BY THE GRANT NOTICE, which may include one or more of the following:

                       (a)          In the Company’s sole discretion at the time your option is exercised and provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board which, prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.

                       (b)          Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, by delivery of already-owned shares of Common Stock that either have been held for the period required to avoid a charge to the Company’s reported earnings (generally six months) or were not acquired, directly or indirectly from the Company, that are owned free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests, and that are valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise. “Delivery” for these purposes, in the sole discretion of the Company at the time your option is exercised, shall include delivery to the Company of your attestation of ownership of such shares of Common Stock in a form approved by the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, your option may not be exercised by tender to the Company of Common Stock to the extent such tender would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company’s stock.

1

          4.          WHOLE SHARES.  Your option may only be exercised for whole shares.

          5.          SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, your option may not be exercised unless the shares issuable upon exercise of your option are then registered under the Securities Act or, if such shares are not then so registered, the Company has determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.  The exercise of your option must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing the option, and the option may not be exercised if the Company determines that the exercise would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.

          6.          TERM. The term of your option commences on the Date of Grant and expires upon the EARLIEST of the following:

                       (a)          three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous Service for any reason other than Disability or death, provided that if during any part of such three (3) month period the option is not exercisable solely because of the condition set forth in paragraph 6, the option shall not expire until the earlier of the Expiration Date or until it shall have been exercisable for an aggregate period of three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous Service;

                       (b)          twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous Service due to Disability;

                       (c)          eighteen (18) months after your death if you die either during your Continuous Service or within three (3) months after your Continuous Service terminates;

                       (d)          the Expiration Date indicated in the Grant Notice; or

                       (e)          the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Date of Grant.

          If your option is an incentive stock option, note that, to obtain the federal income tax advantages associated with an “incentive stock option,” the Code requires that at all times beginning on the date of grant of the option and ending on the day three (3) months before the date of the option’s exercise, you must be an employee of the Company or an Affiliate, except in the event of your death or your Disability.  The Company has provided for extended exercisability of your option under certain circumstances for your benefit, but cannot guarantee that your option will necessarily be treated as an “incentive stock option” if you provide services to the Company or an Affiliate as a Consultant or Director or if you exercise your option more than three (3) months after the date your employment with the Company or an Affiliate terminates.

2

          7.          EXERCISE.

                       (a)          You may exercise the vested portion of your option (and the unvested portion of your option if the Grant Notice so permits) during its term by delivering a Notice of Exercise (in a form designated by the Company) together with the exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to such other person as the Company may designate, during regular business hours, together with such additional documents as the Company may then require.

                       (b)          By exercising your option you agree that, as a condition to any exercise of your option, the Company may require you to enter an arrangement providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax withholding obligation of the Company arising by reason of (1) the exercise of your option, (2) the lapse of any substantial risk of forfeiture to which the shares are subject at the time of exercise, or (3) the disposition of shares acquired upon such exercise.

                       (c)          If your option is an incentive stock option, by exercising your option you agree that you will notify the Company in writing within fifteen (15) days after the date of any disposition of any of the shares of the Common Stock issued upon exercise of your option that occurs within two (2) years after the date of your option grant or within one (1)year after such shares of Common Stock are transferred upon exercise of your option.

                       (d)          By exercising your option you agree that the Company (or a representative of the underwriters) may, in connection with the first underwritten registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, require that you not sell, dispose of, transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company held by you, for a period of time specified by the underwriter(s) (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) following the effective date of the registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act. You further agree to execute and deliver such other
agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company and/or the underwriter(s) which are consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to your Common Stock until the end of such period.

          8.          TRANSFERABILITY. Your option is not transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during your life only by you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third party who, in the event of your death, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise your option.

          9.          OPTION NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT.  Your option is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in your option shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ of the Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your employment. In addition, nothing in your option shall obligate the Company or an Affiliate, their respective shareholders, Boards of Directors, Officers or Employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a Director or Consultant for the Company or an Affiliate.

3

          10.         WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.

                       (a)          At the time your option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you, and otherwise agree to make adequate provision for (including by means of a “cashless exercise” pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or an Affiliate, if any, which arise in connection with your option.

                       (b)          Upon your request and subject to approval by the Company, in its sole discretion, and compliance with any applicable conditions or restrictions of law, the Company may withhold from fully vested shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to you upon the exercise of your option a number of whole shares having a Fair Market Value, determined by the Company as of the date of exercise, not in excess of the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law.  If the date of determination of any tax withholding obligation is deferred to a date later than the date of exercise of your option, share withholding pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not be permitted unless you make a proper and timely election under Section 83(b) of the Code, covering the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock acquired upon such exercise with respect to which such determination is otherwise deferred, to accelerate the determination of such tax withholding obligation to the date of exercise of your option. Notwithstanding the filing of such election, shares shall be withheld solely from fully vested shares of Common Stock determined as of the date of exercise of your option that are otherwise issuable to you upon such exercise. Any adverse consequences to you arising in connection with such share withholding procedure shall be your sole responsibility.

                       (c)          Your option is not exercisable unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied. Accordingly, you may not be able to exercise your option when desired even though your option is vested, and the Company shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares or release such shares from any escrow provided for herein.

          11.         NOTICES. Any notices provided for in your option or the Plan shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company.

          12.         GOVERNING PLAN DOCUMENT.  Your option is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of your option, and is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of your option and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

          (1)          Shares must meet the public trading requirements set forth in the option.

          I hereby make the following certifications and representations with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company listed above (the “Shares”), which are being acquired by me for my own account upon exercise of the Option as set forth above:

          I acknowledge that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and are deemed to constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 701 and “control securities” under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.  I warrant and represent to the Company that I have no present intention of distributing or selling said Shares, except as permitted under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

          I further acknowledge that I will not be able to resell the Shares for at least ninety days (90) after the stock of the Company becomes publicly traded (i.e., subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) under Rule 701 and that more restrictive conditions apply to affiliates of the Company under Rule 144.

           I further acknowledge that all certificates representing any of the Shares subject to the provisions of the Option shall have endorsed thereon appropriate legends reflecting the foregoing limitations, as well as any legends reflecting restrictions pursuant to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and/or applicable securities laws.

          I further agree that, if required by the Company (or a representative of the underwriters) in connection with the first underwritten registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, I will not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company during such period (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) following the effective date of the registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act as may be requested by the Company or the representative of the underwriters. I further agree that the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of such period.

3Exhibit 10.40

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT is made by and between Nitches, Inc., a California corporation (“Company”), and Paul M. Wyandt (“Executive”), an individual residing in the State of California, with reference to the following:

WHEREAS, Executive is currently employed by the Company in the capacity as its President and Chief Operating Officer, and Executive’s background, expertise, and efforts have contributed to the success and financial strength of the Company; and

WHEREAS, the relative rights and obligations of employers and employees in California may be, in the absence of agreement or policy, subject to the uncertainties of future changes in California law and judicial decisions; and

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to define their respective rights and obligations as provided herein; and

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to assure itself of the continued opportunity to benefit from Executive’s services for the period provided in this Agreement, and Executive is willing to serve in the employ of the Company on a full-time basis in accordance with the terms hereof for said period; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that the best interests of the Company would be served by Executive’s continued employment under the terms of this Agreement by the Company and its Affiliates in Executive’s current capacity or such capacities as the Board may delegate to him from time to time during the term of this Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereby agree as follows:

	
  1.
  	
  
 
  	
  
Definitions.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(a)
  	
  
“Affiliate”   shall mean any Person that controls or is controlled by or under common   control with the Company, whether now or hereafter formed.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(b)
  	
  
“Agreement”   means this Employment Agreement and any amendments hereto complying with   Section 15(f) hereof.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(c)
  	
  
“Board”   means the Board of Directors of the Company unless the context otherwise   requires.
  
	
   
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(d)
  	
  
“Cause”   means (1) Executive’s conviction of any criminal act constituting fraud with   respect to or embezzlement or theft of funds or property from the Company, or   conviction of a felony involving dishonesty or moral turpitude; or (2) bad   faith by Executive in the performance of his duties, consisting of a course   of conduct evidencing gross negligence or gross incompetence (which is   intended to be far beyond failure to meet performance goals) provided, with   respect to this clause(2), if the effect of each such act or omission   resulting from such course of conduct is curable that the Board shall have   given written notice to Executive with respect to such course of conduct, and   Executive shall have failed to terminate such course of conduct and cure the   effects of each such act or omission within 30 days of the receipt by   Executive of such written notice.
  

1

	
  
 
  	
  
(e)
  	
  
“Change in   Control” means any of the following events:
  

	
  
 
  	
  
(i)
  	
  
An   acquisition (other than directly from the Company) of any voting securities   of the Company (“Voting Securities”) by any “Person” (as the term person is   used for purposes of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of   1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”)), immediately after which such Person has   “Beneficial Ownership” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under   the 1934 Act) of 50.1% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s   then outstanding Voting Securities; provided, however, that in determining   whether a Change in Control has occurred, Voting Securities which are   acquired in a “Non-Control Acquisition” (as hereinafter defined) shall not   constitute an acquisition which would cause a Change in Control.  A “Non-Control Acquisition” shall mean an   acquisition by (i) an employee benefit plan (or a trust forming a part   thereof) maintained by
(x) the Company and/or its affiliates (collectively,   the “Company”) or (y) any corporation or other Person of which a majority of   its voting power or its equity securities or equity interest is owned   directly or indirectly by the Company (a “Subsidiary”), (ii) the Company or   any Subsidiary or (iii) any Person in connection with a “Non-Control   Transaction” (as hereinafter defined).
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
   
  	
  
(ii)
  	
  
Approval by   the Company’s shareholders of:
  

	
  
 
  	
  
(1)
  	
  
A merger,   consolidation or reorganization involving the Company, if the shareholders of   the Company, immediately before such merger, consolidation or reorganization,   fail to own, directly or indirectly, immediately following such merger,   consolidation or reorganization, at least 50.1% of the combined voting power   of the outstanding Voting Securities of the entity resulting from such merger   or consolidation or reorganization (“Surviving Corporation”) in substantially   the same proportion as their ownership of the Voting Securities immediately   before such merger, consolidation or reorganization.  (A merger, consolidation or reorganization   involving the Company that fails to satisfy the these conditions shall herein   be referred to as a “Non-Control Transaction.”);
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(2)
  	
  
A complete   liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or
  
	
   
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(3)
  	
  
An agreement   for the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets   of the Company to any Person (other than to an entity of which the Company   directly or indirectly owns at least 50.1% of the voting shares).
  

2

	
  
 
  	
  
Notwithstanding   the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely   because any Person (“Subject Person”) acquired Beneficial Ownership of more   than the permitted amount of the outstanding Voting Securities as a result of   the Company’s acquisition of Voting Securities which, by reducing the number   of Voting Securities outstanding, increases the proportional number of shares   Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, provided that if a Change in   Control would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of   the Company’s acquisition of Voting Securities, and after such Company share   acquisition, the Subject Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of any   additional Voting Securities which increases the percentage of the then   outstanding Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, then   a Change in Control shall occur.
  

	
  
 
  	
  
(f)
  	
  
“Compensation   Committee” is the committee of the Board appointed as such to act on behalf   of the full Board in matters of executive compensation and benefits.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(g)
  	
  
“Control”   shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or   cause the direction of the management or policies of the Company, as   applicable, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract   or otherwise.
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(h)
  	
  
“Disability”   means physical or mental illness resulting in Executive’s absence on a   full-time basis from Executive’s duties with the Company or its Affiliates   for one hundred twenty (120) consecutive calendar days, as determined by the   written medical opinion of an independent physician acceptable to Executive   and the Company, subject to the procedure referenced in Section 9(a). If the   Company and Executive cannot agree as to such an independent physician, each   shall appoint one physician and those two physicians shall appoint a third   physician who shall make such determination. In no event shall Executive be   considered disabled for the purposes of this Agreement unless Executive is   deemed disabled pursuant to any disability insurance coverage applicable to   him.
  
	
   
  	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
(i)
  	
  
“Expiration”   means the termination of this Agreement, including Executive’s employment   hereunder, and of any further obligations of the parties, except as specified   in the Agreement, upon completion of the Term.

The arbitration shall take place in the City of San Diego, CA.
