          (a)      Subject to the provisions of Section 10, below, the maximum aggregate number of Shares
which may be issued pursuant to all Awards (including Incentive Stock Options) is 650,000 Shares,
increased by (i) any Shares available for future Awards under the Company’s 1996 Flexible Stock
Incentive Plan as of the Registration Date, (ii) any Shares that are represented by Awards under
the Company’s 1996 Flexible Stock Incentive Plan which are forfeited, expire or are cancelled
without delivery of Shares or which result in the forfeiture of Shares back to the Company on or

Company’s fiscal year beginning in 2000 equal to five percent (5%) of the number of Shares
outstanding as of such date or a lesser number of Shares determined by the Administrator.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the provisions of Section 10, below, of the number of
Shares specified above, the maximum aggregate number of Shares available for grant of Incentive
Stock Options shall be 650,000 Shares, plus an annual increase to be added on the first day of the

          (b)      Any Shares covered by an Award (or portion of an Award) which is forfeited or canceled,
expires or is settled in cash, shall be deemed not to have been issued for purposes of determining
the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan. If any unissued Shares
are retained by the Company upon exercise of an Award in order to satisfy the exercise price for
such Award or any withholding taxes due with respect to such Award, such retained Shares subject to
such Award shall become available for future issuance under the Plan (unless the Plan has
terminated). Shares that actually have been issued under the Plan pursuant to an Award shall not
be returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future issuance under the Plan, except
that if unvested Shares are forfeited, or repurchased by the Company at their original purchase
price, such Shares shall become available for future grant under the Plan.

     4.      Administration of the Plan.

          (a)      Plan Administrator.

               (i)      Administration with Respect to Directors and Officers. With respect to grants of
Awards to Directors or Employees who are also Officers or Directors of the Company, the Plan shall
be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee designated by the Board, which Committee shall
be constituted in such a manner as to satisfy the Applicable Laws and to permit such grants and
related transactions under the Plan to be exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act in
accordance with Rule 16b-3. Once appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its
designated capacity until otherwise directed by the Board.

               (ii)      Administration With Respect to Consultants and Other Employees.  With
respect to grants of Awards to Employees or Consultants who are neither Directors nor Officers of
the Company, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee designated by the
Board, which Committee shall be constituted in such a manner as to satisfy the Applicable Laws.
Once appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise
directed by the Board. Subject to Applicable Laws, the Board may authorize one or more Officers to
grant such Awards and may limit such authority as the Board determines from time to time.

               (iii)      Administration Errors. In the event an Award is granted in a manner
inconsistent with the provisions of this subsection (a), such Award shall be presumptively valid as
of its grant date to the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws.

          (b)      Powers of the Administrator. Subject to Applicable Laws and the provisions of the
Plan (including any other powers given to the Administrator hereunder), and except as otherwise
provided by the Board, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion:

               (i)      to select the Employees, Directors and Consultants to whom Awards may be granted from time
to time hereunder;

               (ii)      to determine whether and to what extent Awards are granted hereunder;

A-6

 

               (iii)      to determine the number of Shares or the amount of other consideration to be covered by
each Award granted hereunder;

               (iv)      to approve forms of Award Agreements for use under the Plan;

               (v)      to determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder;

               (vi)      to amend the terms of any outstanding Award granted under the Plan, provided that any
amendment that would adversely affect the Grantee’s rights under an outstanding Award shall not be
made without the Grantee’s written consent;

               (vii)      to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan,
including without limitation, any notice of Award or Award Agreement, granted pursuant to the Plan;

               (viii)      to establish additional terms, conditions, rules or procedures to accommodate the rules
or laws of applicable foreign jurisdictions and to afford Grantees favorable treatment under such
laws; provided, however, that no Award shall be granted under any such additional terms,
conditions, rules or procedures with terms or conditions which are inconsistent with the provisions
of the Plan; and

               (ix)      to take such other action, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the
Administrator deems appropriate.

          (c)      Effect of Administrator’s Decision. All decisions, determinations and
interpretations of the Administrator shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.

     5.      Eligibility. Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted to
Employees, Directors and Consultants. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees of
the Company, a Parent or a Subsidiary. An Employee, Director or Consultant who has been granted an
Award may, if otherwise eligible, be granted additional Awards. Awards may be granted to such
Employees, Directors or Consultants who are residing in foreign jurisdictions as the Administrator
may determine from time to time.

     6.      Terms and Conditions of Awards.

          (a)      Type of Awards. The Administrator is authorized under the Plan to award any type
of arrangement to an Employee, Director or Consultant that is not inconsistent with the provisions
of the Plan and that by its terms involves or might involve the issuance of (i) Shares, (ii) an
Option, a SAR or similar right with a fixed or variable price related to the Fair Market Value of
the Shares and with an exercise or conversion privilege related to the passage of time, the
occurrence of one or more events, or the satisfaction of performance criteria or other conditions,
or (iii) any other security with the value derived from the value of the Shares. Such awards
include, without limitation, Options, SARs, sales or bonuses of Restricted Stock, Dividend
Equivalent Rights, Performance Units or Performance Shares, and an Award may consist of one such
security or benefit, or two (2) or more of them in any combination or alternative.

A-7

 

          (b)      Designation of Award. Each Award shall be designated in the Award Agreement. In
the case of an Option, the Option shall be designated as either an Incentive Stock Option or a
Non-Qualified Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the
aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares subject to Options designated as Incentive Stock Options
which become exercisable for the first time by a Grantee during any calendar year (under all plans
of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options, to the extent of
the Shares covered thereby in excess of the foregoing limitation, shall be treated as
Non-Qualified Stock Options. For this purpose, Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account
in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be
determined as of the date the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.

          (c)      Conditions of Award. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Administrator shall
determine the provisions, terms, and conditions of each Award including, but not limited to, the
Award vesting schedule, repurchase provisions, rights of first refusal, forfeiture provisions, form
of payment (cash, Shares, or other consideration) upon settlement of the Award, payment
contingencies, and satisfaction of any performance criteria. The performance criteria established
by the Administrator may be based on any one of, or combination of, increase in share price,
earnings per share, total stockholder return, return on equity, return on assets, return on
investment, net operating income, cash flow, revenue, economic value added, personal management
objectives, or other measure of performance selected by the Administrator. Partial achievement of
the specified criteria may result in a payment or vesting corresponding to the degree of
achievement as specified in the Award Agreement.

          (d)      Acquisitions and Other Transactions. The Administrator may issue Awards under the
Plan in settlement, assumption or substitution for, outstanding awards or obligations to grant
future awards in connection with the Company or a Related Entity acquiring another entity, an
interest in another entity or an additional interest in a Related Entity whether by merger, stock
purchase, asset purchase or other form of transaction.

          (e)      Deferral of Award Payment. The Administrator may establish one or more programs
under the Plan to permit selected Grantees the opportunity to elect to defer receipt of
consideration upon exercise of an Award, satisfaction of performance criteria, or other event that
absent the election would entitle the Grantee to payment or receipt of Shares or other
consideration under an Award. The Administrator may establish the election procedures, the timing
of such elections, the mechanisms for payments of, and accrual of interest or other earnings, if
any, on amounts, Shares or other consideration so deferred, and such other terms, conditions, rules
and procedures that the Administrator deems advisable for the administration of any such deferral
program.

          (f)      Award Exchange Programs. The Administrator may establish one or more programs
under the Plan to permit selected Grantees to exchange an Award under the Plan for one or more
other types of Awards under the Plan on such terms and conditions as determined by the
Administrator from time to time.

          (g)      Separate Programs. The Administrator may establish one or more separate programs
under the Plan for the purpose of issuing particular forms of Awards to one or

A-8

 

more classes of Grantees on such terms and conditions as determined by the Administrator from
time to time.

          (h)      Early Exercise. The Award Agreement may, but need not, include a provision
whereby the Grantee may elect at any time while an Employee, Director or Consultant to exercise any
part or all of the Award prior to full vesting of the Award. Any unvested Shares received pursuant
to such exercise may be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or a Related Entity
or to any other restriction the Administrator determines to be appropriate.

          (i)      Term of Award. The term of each Award shall be the term stated in the Award
Agreement, provided, however, that the term of an Incentive Stock Option shall be no more than ten
(10) years from the date of grant thereof. However, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option
granted to a Grantee who, at the time the Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten
percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant
thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement.

          (j)      Transferability of Awards. Incentive Stock Options may not be sold, pledged,
assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws
of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Grantee, only by the
Grantee; provided, however, that the Grantee may designate a beneficiary of the Grantee’s Incentive
Stock Option in the event of the Grantee’s death on a beneficiary designation form provided by the
Administrator. Other Awards shall be transferable to the extent provided in the Award Agreement.

          (k)      Time of Granting Awards. The date of grant of an Award shall for all purposes be
the date on which the Administrator makes the determination to grant such Award, or such other date
as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the grant determination shall be given to each
Employee, Director or Consultant to whom an Award is so granted within a reasonable time after the
date of such grant.

     7.      Award Exercise or Purchase Price, Consideration and Taxes.

          (a)      Exercise or Purchase Price. The exercise or purchase price, if any, for an Award
shall be as follows:

               (i)      In the case of an Incentive Stock Option:

                    (A)      granted to an Employee who, at the time of the grant of such Incentive Stock Option owns
stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the
Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be not less than one
hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant; or

                    (B)      granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in the preceding paragraph, the
per Share exercise price shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value
per Share on the date of grant.

A-9

 

               (ii)      In the case of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, the per Share exercise price shall be not
less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant unless
otherwise determined by the Administrator.

               (iii)      In the case of other Awards, such price as is determined by the Administrator.

               (iv)      Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(a), in the case of an Award
issued pursuant to Section 6(d), above, the exercise or purchase price for the Award shall be
determined in accordance with the principles of Section 424(a) of the Code.

          (b)      Consideration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the consideration to be paid for the
Shares to be issued upon exercise or purchase of an Award including the method of payment, shall be
determined by the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall be determined
at the time of grant). In addition to any other types of consideration the Administrator may
determine, the Administrator is authorized to accept as consideration for Shares issued under the
Plan the following, provided that the portion of the consideration equal to the par value of the
Shares must be paid in cash or other legal consideration permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law:

               (i)      cash;

               (ii)      check;

               (iii)      delivery of Grantee’s promissory note with such recourse, interest, security, and
redemption provisions as the Administrator determines as appropriate;

               (iv)      if the exercise or purchase occurs on or after the Registration Date, surrender of Shares
or delivery of a properly executed form of attestation of ownership of Shares as the Administrator
may require (including withholding of Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of the Award)
which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation equal to the aggregate
exercise price of the Shares as to which said Award shall be exercised (but only to the extent that
such exercise of the Award would not result in an accounting compensation charge with respect to
the Shares used to pay the exercise price unless otherwise determined by the Administrator);

               (v)      with respect to Options, if the exercise occurs on or after the Registration Date, payment
through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Grantee (A) shall
provide written instructions to a Company designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of
some or all of the purchased Shares and remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds available on
the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the
purchased Shares and (B) shall provide written directives to the Company to deliver the
certificates for the purchased Shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale
transaction; or

               (vi)      any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

          (c)      Taxes. No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Grantee or other person
until such Grantee or other person has made arrangements acceptable to the Administrator for the
satisfaction of any foreign, federal, state, or local income and employment tax withholding
obligations, including, without limitation, obligations incident to the receipt of Shares or the
disqualifying disposition of Shares received on exercise of an Incentive Stock Option. Upon
exercise of an Award, the Company shall withhold or collect from Grantee an amount sufficient to
satisfy such tax obligations.

     8.      Exercise of Award.

          (a)      Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder.

               (i)      Any Award granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions
as determined by the Administrator under the terms of the Plan and specified in the Award
Agreement.

               (ii)      An Award shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such exercise has been
given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Award by the person entitled to exercise
the Award and full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Award is exercised, including,
to the extent selected, use of the broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure to pay the purchase
price as provided in Section 7(b)(v). Until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on
the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) of the stock
certificate evidencing such Shares, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a
stockholder shall exist with respect to Shares subject to an Award, notwithstanding the exercise of
an Option or other Award. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate
promptly upon exercise of the Award. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for
which the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in
the Award Agreement or Section 10, below.

          (b)      Exercise of Award Following Termination of Continuous Service.

               (i)      An Award may not be exercised after the termination date of such Award set forth in the
Award Agreement and may be exercised following the termination of a Grantee’s Continuous Service
only to the extent provided in the Award Agreement.

               (ii)      Where the Award Agreement permits a Grantee to exercise an Award following the
termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Service for a specified period, the Award shall terminate
to the extent not exercised on the last day of the specified period or the last day of the original
term of the Award, whichever occurs first.

               (iii)      Any Award designated as an Incentive Stock Option to the extent not exercised within the
time permitted by law for the exercise of Incentive Stock Options following the termination of a
Grantee’s Continuous Service shall convert automatically to a Non-Qualified Stock Option and
thereafter shall be exercisable as such to the extent exercisable by its terms for the period
specified in the Award Agreement.

          (c)      Buyout Provisions. The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a
payment in cash or Shares, an Award previously granted, based on such terms and

A-11

 

conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Grantee at the time
that such offer is made.

     9.      Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

          (a)      Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of
such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all
Applicable Laws, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with
respect to such compliance.

          (b)      As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising
such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being
purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares
if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any Applicable
Laws.

     10.      Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the
shareholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Award, and the number
of Shares which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet
been granted or which have been returned to the Plan, the exercise or purchase price of each such
outstanding Award, as well as any other terms that the Administrator determines require adjustment
shall be proportionately adjusted for (i) any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares
resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification
of the Shares, or similar transaction affecting the Shares, (ii) any other increase or decrease in
the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, or (iii) as
the Administrator may determine in its discretion, any other transaction with respect to Common
Stock to which Section 424(a) of the Code applies or a similar transaction; provided, however that
conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected
without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator and its
determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as the Administrator determines, no
issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of
stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason hereof shall be made with respect to,
the number or price of Shares subject to an Award.

     11.      Corporate Transactions/Related Entity Dispositions/Buyout. Except as may be
provided in an Award Agreement:

          (a)      Effective upon the consummation of a Corporate Transaction, all outstanding Awards under
the Plan shall terminate. However, all such Awards shall not terminate if they are, in connection
with the Corporate Transaction, assumed by the successor corporation or Parent thereof.

          (b)      Effective upon the consummation of a Related Entity Disposition, for purposes of the Plan
and all Awards, the Continuous Service of each Grantee who is at the time engaged primarily in
service to the Related Entity involved in such Related Entity Disposition shall be deemed to
terminate and each Award of such Grantee which is at the time outstanding

A-12

 

under the Plan shall be exercisable in accordance with the terms of the Award Agreement
evidencing such Award. However, such Continuous Service shall be not to deemed to terminate if
such Award is, in connection with the Related Entity Disposition, assumed by the successor entity
or its parent.

     12.      Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier
to occur of its adoption by the Board or its approval by the stockholders of the Company. It shall
continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated. Subject to Section 17,
below, and Applicable Laws, Awards may be granted under the Plan upon its becoming effective.

     13.      Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan.

          (a)      The Board may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan. To the extent necessary to
comply with Applicable Laws, the Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment in
such a manner and to such a degree as required.

          (b)      No Award may be granted during any suspension of the Plan or after termination of the
Plan.

          (c)      Any amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan (including termination of the Plan
under Section 12, above) shall not affect Awards already granted, and such Awards shall remain in
full force and effect as if the Plan had not been amended, suspended or terminated, unless mutually
agreed otherwise between the Grantee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and
signed by the Grantee and the Company.

     14.      Reservation of Shares.

          (a)      The Company, during the term of the Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available
such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

          (b)      The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having
jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful
issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of
the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been
obtained.

     15.      No Effect on Terms of Employment/Consulting Relationship. The Plan shall not
confer upon any Grantee any right with respect to the Grantee’s Continuous Service, nor shall it
interfere in any way with his or her right or the Company’s right to terminate the Grantee’s
Continuous Service at any time, with or without cause.

     16.      No Effect on Retirement and Other Benefit Plans. Except as specifically provided
in a retirement or other benefit plan of the Company or a Related Entity, Awards shall not be
deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits or contributions under any retirement plan
of the Company or a Related Entity, and shall not affect any benefits under any other benefit plan
of any kind or any benefit plan subsequently instituted under which the availability or

A-13

 

amount of benefits is related to level of compensation. The Plan is not a “Retirement Plan”
or “Welfare Plan” under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

     17.      Stockholder Approval. The grant of Incentive Stock Options under the Plan shall
be subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after
the date the Plan is adopted excluding Incentive Stock Options issued in substitution for
outstanding Incentive Stock Options pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code. Such stockholder
approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner required under Applicable Laws. The
Administrator may grant Incentive Stock Options under the Plan prior to approval by the
stockholders, but until such approval is obtained, no such Incentive Stock Option shall be
exercisable. In the event that stockholder approval is not obtained within the twelve (12) month
period provided above, all Incentive Stock Options previously granted under the Plan shall be
exercisable as Non-Qualified Stock Options.

     18.      Rules Particular to Specific Countries. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the terms and conditions of the Plan may be amended with respect to eligible persons who
are tax residents of a particular country by means of an addendum to the Plan in the form of an
Appendix. To the extent that the terms and conditions set forth in an Appendix conflict with any
provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Appendix shall govern. Terms and conditions set forth
in the Appendix shall apply only to eligible persons who are tax residents of the specific country
that is the subject matter of the Appendix. The adoption of any such Appendix shall be pursuant to
Section 13 above
