        1.    Purposes of the Plan.    The purposes of this Stock Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel
for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentive to Employees and Consultants of the Company and any Subsidiaries and to promote the success of the Company's business.
Options granted under the Plan may be Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options, as determined by the Administrator at the time of grant of an Option and subject to the applicable
provisions of Section 422 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. Stock Purchase Rights may also be granted under the Plan.

        (h)   "Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant" means that the employment or consulting relationship with the Company,

sick leave, military leave, or any other personal leave approved by an authorized representative of the Company. For purposes of Incentive Stock Options, no such leave may exceed 90 days,
unless reemployment upon expiration of such leave is guaranteed by statute or contract, including Company policies. If reemployment upon expiration of a leave of absence approved by the Company is not
so guaranteed, on the 91st day of such leave any Incentive Stock Option held by the Optionee shall cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall be treated for tax purposes as a
Nonstatutory Stock Option.

        If
an Option or Stock Purchase Right expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, or is surrendered pursuant to an Option Exchange Program, the unpurchased
Shares which were subject thereto shall become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). However, Shares that have actually been issued under the Plan, upon
exercise of either an Option or Stock Purchase Right, shall not be returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future distribution under the Plan, except that if Shares of Restricted Stock
are repurchased by the Company at their original purchase price, and the original purchaser of such Shares did not receive any benefits of ownership of such Shares, such Shares shall become available
for future grant under the Plan. For purposes of the preceding sentence, voting rights shall not be considered a benefit of Share ownership. 

        4.    Administration of the Plan.    

        (a)   Initial Plan Procedure.    Prior to the date, if any, upon which the Company becomes subject to the Exchange
Act, the Plan shall be administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the Board. 

        (b)   Plan Procedure After the Date, if any, upon Which the Company becomes Subject to the Exchange Act. 

        (i)    Multiple Administrative Bodies.    If permitted by Rule 16b-3, the Plan may be administered
by different bodies with respect to Directors, Officers and Employees who are neither Directors nor Officers. 

        (ii)   Administration With Respect to Directors and Officers.    With respect to grants of Options and Stock Purchase
Rights to Employees who are also Officers or Directors of the Company, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board if the Board may administer the Plan in compliance with
Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act or any successor thereto ("Rule 16b-3") with respect to a plan intended to qualify thereunder as a discretionary
plan, or (B) a Committee designated by the Board to administer the Plan, which Committee shall be constituted in such a manner as to permit the Plan to comply with Rule 16b-3
with respect to a plan intended to qualify thereunder as a discretionary plan. Once appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise directed by the Board.
From time to time the Board may increase the size of the Committee and appoint additional members thereof, remove members (with or without cause) and appoint new members in substitution therefor, fill
vacancies, however caused, and remove all members of the Committee and thereafter directly administer the Plan, all to the extent permitted by Rule 16b-3 with respect to a plan
intended to qualify thereunder as a discretionary plan. 

        (iii)  Administration With Respect to Other Employees and Consultants.    With respect to grants of Options and
Stock Purchase Rights 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 legal requirements relating to the administration of incentive stock option plans, if any, of California corporate
and securities laws, of the Code, and of any applicable stock exchange (the "Applicable Laws"). Once appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise
directed by the Board. From time to time the Board may increase the size of the Committee and appoint additional members thereof, remove members (with or without cause) and appoint new members in
substitution therefor, fill vacancies, however caused, and remove all members of the Committee and thereafter directly administer the Plan, all to the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws. 

        (c)   Powers of the Administrator.    Subject to the provisions of the Plan and, in the case of a Committee, the
specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee, and subject to the approval of any relevant authorities, including the approval, if required, of any stock exchange 

3

 

upon
which the Common Stock is listed, the Administrator shall have the authority in its discretion: 

        (i)    to
determine the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock, in accordance with Section 2(l) of the Plan; 

        (ii)   to
select the Consultants and Employees to whom Options and Stock Purchase Rights may from time to time be granted hereunder; 

        (iii)  to
determine whether and to what extent Options and Stock Purchase Rights or any combination thereof are granted hereunder; 

        (iv)  to
determine the number of Shares to be covered by each such award granted hereunder; 

        (v)   to
approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan; 

        (vi)  to
determine the terms and conditions of any award granted hereunder; 

        (vii) to
determine whether and under what circumstances an Option may be settled in cash under subsection 9(f) instead of Common Stock; 

        (viii) to
reduce the exercise price of any Option to the then current Fair Market Value if the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock covered by such Option has declined
since the date the Option was granted; and 

        (ix)  to
construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and awards granted pursuant to the Plan. 

        (d)   Effect of Administrator's Decision.    All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator
shall be final and binding on all Optionees and any other holders of any Options or Stock Purchase Rights. 

        5.    Eligibility.    

        (a)   Nonstatutory
Stock Options and Stock Purchase Rights may be granted to Employees and Consultants. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. An Employee
or Consultant who has been granted an Option or Stock Purchase Right may, if otherwise eligible, be granted additional Options or Stock Purchase Rights. 

        (b)   Each
Option shall be designated in the written option agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such
designations, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares subject to an Optionee's Incentive Stock Options granted by the Company, any Parent or Subsidiary, which become exercisable
for the first time during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For
purposes of this Section 5(b), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the
time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted. 

        (c)   Neither
the Plan nor any Option or Stock Purchase Right shall confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to continuation of his or her employment or consulting
relationship with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the Company's right to terminate his or her employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or without
cause. 

        (d)   Upon
the Company or a successor corporation issuing any class of common equity securities required to be registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or upon
the Plan being assumed by a corporation having a class of common equity securities required to be registered 

4

 

under
Section 12 of the Exchange Act, the following limitations shall apply to grants of Options and Stock Purchase Rights to Employees: 

        (i)    No
Employee shall be granted, in any fiscal year of the Company, Options and Stock Purchase Rights to purchase more than 1,000,000 Shares. 

        (ii)   The
foregoing limitation shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company's capitalization as described in Section 12. 

        (iii)  If
an Option or Stock Purchase Right is canceled in the same fiscal year of the Company in which it was granted (other than in connection with a transaction described
in Section 12), the canceled Option shall be counted against the limit set forth in Section 5(d)(i). For this purpose, if the exercise price of an Option is reduced, such reduction will
be treated as a cancellation of the Option and the grant of a new Option. 

        6.    Term of Plan.    The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of its adoption by the Board of
Directors or its approval by the shareholders of the Company, as described in Section 18 of the Plan. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated
under Section 14 of the Plan. 

        7.    Term of Option.    The term of each Option shall be the term stated in the Option Agreement; provided, however,
that the term shall be no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Optionee 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 Option shall be five (5) years from the
date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement. 

        8.    Option Exercise Price and Consideration.    

        (a)   The
per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator, but shall be subject to
the following: 

        (i)    In
the case of an Incentive Stock Option 

        (A)  granted
to an Employee who, at the time of grant of such 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 no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

        (B)  granted
to any other Employee, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

        (ii)   In
the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option 

        (A)  granted
to a person who, at the time of grant of such 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 no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of the grant. 

        (B)  granted
to any other person, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 85% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

        (b)   The
consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, 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). Such consideration may consist of (1) cash, (2) check, (3) promissory note, (4) other
Shares which (x) in the case of Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option, have been owned by the Optionee for more than six months on the date of surrender, and (y) have a Fair Market
Value on the date of surrender equal to the 

5

 

aggregate
exercise price of the Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised, (5) delivery of a properly executed exercise notice together with such other documentation as the
Administrator and a broker, if applicable, shall require to effect an exercise of the Option and delivery to the Company of the sale or loan proceeds required to pay the exercise price, or
(6) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Administrator shall consider if acceptance of such
consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit the Company. 

        9.    Exercise of Option.    

        (a)   Procedure for Exercise: Rights as a Shareholder.    Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such
times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator, including performance criteria with respect to the Company and/or the Optionee, and as shall be permissible under the terms of the
Plan, but in no case at a rate of less than 20% per year over five (5) years from the date the Option is granted. 

        An
Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 

        An
Option 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 Option by the person entitled to exercise
the Option and full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised has been received by the Company. Full payment may, as authorized by the Administrator, consist of any
consideration and
method of payment allowable under Section 8(b) hereof. 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, receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the
exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly upon exercise of the Option. No adjustment shall be made for dividend or other right for which
the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 12 hereof. 

        Exercise
of an Option in any manner shall result in a decrease in the number of Shares which thereafter may be available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by
the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised. 

        (b)   Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship.    In the event of termination of an Optionee's
Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant (but not in the event of an Optionee's change of status from Employee to Consultant (in which case an Employee's Incentive Stock Option shall
automatically covert [sic] to a Nonstatutory Stock Option on the ninety-first (91st) day following such change of status) or from Consultant to Employee), such Optionee may,
but only within such period of time as is determined by the Administrator (which period shall not be less than thirty (30) days), with such determination in the case of an Incentive Stock
Option not exceeding three (3) months after the date of such termination (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement),
exercise his or her Option to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination. To the extent that the Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option at the
date of such termination, or if the Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate. 

        (c)   Disability of Optionee.    In the event of termination of an Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee or
Consultant as a result of his or her disability, the Optionee may, but only within twelve (12) months from the date of such termination (and in no event later than the expiration date of the
term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise the Option to the extent otherwise entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination. If such disability is not a "disability"
as such term is defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option such Incentive Stock Option shall automatically cease to be treated as an Incentive 

6

 

Stock
Option and shall be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option on the day three (3) months and one day following such termination. To the extent that the Optionee was not
entitled to exercise the Option at the date of termination, or if the Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and
the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan. 

        (d)   Death of 0ptionee.    In the event of the death of an Optionee, the Option may be exercised at any time within
twelve (12) months following the date of death (but in no event later than the expiration of the
term of such Option as set forth in the Notice of Grant) by the Optionee's estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent that
the Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option on the date of death. If, at the time of death, the Optionee was not entitled to exercise his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the
unexercisable portion of the Option shall immediately revert to the Plan. If, after the Optionee's death, the Optionee's estate or a person who acquires the right to exercise the Option by bequest or
inheritance does not exercise the Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan. 

        (e)   Rule 16b-3.    Options granted to persons subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange
Act must comply with Rule 16b-3 and shall contain such additional conditions or restrictions as may be required thereunder to qualify for the maximum exemption from
Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to Plan transactions. 

        (f)    Buyout Provisions.    The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares, an
Option previously granted, based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Optionee at the time that such offer is made. 

        10.    Non-Transferability of Options and Stock Purchase Rights.    Options and Stock Purchase Rights 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
Optionee, only by the Optionee. 

        11.    Stock Purchase Rights.    

        (a)   Rights to Purchase.    Stock Purchase Rights may be issued either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with
other awards granted under the Plan and/or cash awards made outside of the Plan. After the Administrator determines that it will offer Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan, it shall advise the offeree
in writing of the terms, conditions and restrictions related to the offer, including the number of Shares that such person shall be entitled to purchase, the price to be paid, and the time within
which such person must accept such Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase option exercisable upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the purchaser's
employment with the Company for any reason (including death or Disability). The purchase price for Shares repurchased pursuant to the Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall be the original price
paid by the purchaser and may be paid by cancellation of any indebtedness of the purchaser to the Company. The repurchase option shall lapse at such rate as the Administrator may determine, but in no
case at a rate of less than 20% per year over five years from the date of purchase. 

        (b)   Other Provisions.    The Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and
conditions not inconsistent with the plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. In addition, the provisions of Restricted Stock purchase agreements need not be the same
with respeption [sic] shall lapse at such rate as the Administrator may determine, but in no case at a rate of less than 20% per year over five years from the date of purchase. 

7

 

        (c)   Other Provisions.    The Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and
conditions not inconsistent with the plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. In addition, the provisions of Restricted Stock purchase agreements need not be the same
with respect to each purchaser. 

        (d)   Rights as a Shareholder.    Once the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, the purchaser shall have rights
equivalent to those of a shareholder and shall be a shareholder when his or her purchase is entered upon the records of the duly authorized transfer agent of the Company. No adjustment shall be made
for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan. 

        12.    Adjustments Upon Changes in-Capitalization or Merger.    

        (a)   Changes in Capitalization.    Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of
shares of Common Stock covered by each outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right, and the number of Shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no
Options or Stock Purchase Rights have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Option or Stock Purchase Right, as well as the price per share of
Common Stock covered by each such outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting
from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected
without receipt of consideration by the Company. The 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 Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, 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 thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock
subject to an Option or Stock Purchase Right. 

        (b)   Dissolution or Liquidation.    In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the
Administrator shall notify the Optionee at least fifteen (15) days prior to such proposed action. To
the extent it has not been previously exercised, the Option or Stock Purchase Right shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action. 

        (c)   Merger.    In the event of a merger of the Company with or into another corporation, each outstanding Option or
Stock Purchase Right shall be assumed or an equivalent option or right shall be substituted by such successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation. If, in such event, an
Option or Stock Purchase Right is not assumed or substituted, the Option or Stock Purchase Right shall terminate as of the date of the closing of the merger. For the purposes of this paragraph, the
Option or Stock Purchase Right shall be considered assumed if, following the merger, the Option or Stock Purchase Right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Optioned Stock
subject to the Option or Stock Purchase Right immediately prior to the merger the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger by holders of Common Stock
for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if the holders are offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding
Shares). If such consideration received in the merger is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation,
provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option or Stock Purchase Right, for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option or Stock Purchase Right, to be solely
common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger. 

8

 

        13.    Time of Granting Options and Stock Purchase Rights.    The date of grant of an Option or Stock Purchase Right
shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the administrator makes the determination granting such Option or Stock Purchase Right, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice
of the determination shall be given to each Employee or Consultant to whom an Option or Stock Purchase Right is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such grant. 

        14.    Amendment and Termination of the Plan.    

        (a)   Amendment and Termination.    The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or discontinue the Plan, but no
amendment, alteration, suspension or discontinuation shall be made which would impair the rights of any Optionee under any grant theretofore made, without his or her consent. In addition, to the
extent necessary and desirable to comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or with Section 422 of the Code (or any other applicable law or regulation, including the
requirements of the NASD or an established stock exchange), the Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required. 

        (b)   Effect of Amendment or Termination.    Any such amendment or termination of the Plan shall not affect Options
or Stock Purchase Rights already granted, and such Options and Stock Purchase Rights shall remain in full force and effect as if this Plan had not been amended or terminated, unless mutually
agreed otherwise between the Optionee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Optionee and the Company. 

        15.    Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.    Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option or
Stock Purchase Right unless the exercise of such Option or Stock Purchase Right and the issuance and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law,
including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the
Shares may then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. 

        As
a condition to the exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right, the Company may require the person exercising such Option or Stock Purchase Right 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 of the aforementioned relevant provisions of law. 

        16.    Reservation of Shares.    The Company, during the term of this Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep
available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 

        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. 

        17.    Agreements.    Options and Stock Purchase Rights shall be evidenced by written agreements in such form as the
Administrator shall approve from time to time. 

        18.    Shareholder Approval.    Continuance of the Plan shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of the
Company within twelve (12) months before or after the date the plan is adopted. Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner required under applicable state and federal
law and the rules of any stock exchange upon which the Common Stock is listed. 

        19.    Information to Optionees and Purchasers.    The Company shall provide to each Optionee and to each individual
who acquires Shares pursuant to the Plan, not less frequently than annually during the period such Optionee or purchaser has one or more Options or Stock Purchase Rights outstanding, and, in the case
of an individual who acquires Shares pursuant to the Plan, during the period such individual owns such Shares, copies of annual financial statements. The Company shall not be required to provide such
statements to key employees whose duties in connection with the Company ensure their access to equivalent information.

        3.4   Administration with Respect to Insiders.    With respect to participation by Insiders in the Plan, at any time
that any class of equity security of the Company is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, the Plan shall be administered in compliance with the requirements, if any, of
Rule 16b-3. 

        3.5   Indemnification.    In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as members of the
Board or officers or employees of the Participating Company Group, members of the Board and any officers or employees of the Participating Company Group to whom authority to act for the Board or the
Company is delegated shall be indemnified by the Company against all reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily incurred in connection with the defense of any action,
suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan, or any
right granted hereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the Company) or paid by them in
satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding that such person is liable for
gross negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct in duties; provided, however, that within sixty (60) days after the institution of such action, suit or proceeding, such person shall offer
to the Company, in writing, the opportunity at its own expense to handle and defend the same. 

        4.    SHARES SUBJECT TO PLAN.

        4.1   Maximum Number of Shares Issuable.    Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2, the maximum
aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan shall be three million five hundred thousand (3,500,000) and shall consist of authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of
Stock or any combination thereof. If an outstanding Option for any reason expires or is terminated or canceled or if shares of Stock are acquired upon the exercise of an Option subject to a Company
repurchase option and are repurchased by the Company at the Optionee's exercise price, the shares of Stock allocable to the unexercised portion of such Option or such repurchased shares of Stock shall
again be available for issuance under the Plan. However, except as adjusted pursuant to Section 4.2, in
no event shall more than three million five hundred thousand (3,500,000) shares of Stock be available for issuance pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options (the  "ISO Share Issuance
Limit"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any such time as the offer and sale of
securities pursuant to the Plan is subject to compliance with Section 260.140.45 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations
("Section 260.140.45"), the total number of shares of Stock issuable upon the exercise of all
outstanding Options (together with options outstanding under any other stock option plan of the Company) and the total number of shares provided for under any stock bonus or similar plan of the
Company shall not exceed thirty percent (30%) (or such other higher percentage limitation as may be approved by the shareholders of the Company pursuant to Section 260.140.45) of the then
outstanding shares of the Company as calculated in accordance with the conditions and exclusions of Section 260.140.45. 

        4.2   Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure.    In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock
split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number and class of shares subject to the
Plan and to any outstanding Options, in the ISO Share Issuance Limit set forth in Section 4.1, and in the exercise price per share of any outstanding Options. If a majority of the shares which
are of the same class as the shares that are subject to outstanding Options are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event, as defined in
Section 8.1) shares of another corporation (the "New Shares"), the Board may unilaterally amend
the outstanding Options to provide that such Options are exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the number of shares subject to, 

5

 

and
the exercise price per share of, the outstanding Options shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner as determined by the Board, in its discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and in no event may the exercise price of any Option be decreased
to an amount less than the par value, if any, of the stock subject to the Option. The adjustments determined by the Board pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be final, binding and conclusive. 

        5.    ELIGIBILITY AND OPTION LIMITATIONS.

        5.1   Persons Eligible for Options.    Options may be granted only to Employees, Consultants, and Directors. For
purposes of the foregoing sentence, "Employees," "Consultants" and "Directors" shall include prospective Employees, prospective Consultants and prospective Directors to whom Options are granted in
connection with written offers of an employment or other service relationship with the Participating Company Group. Eligible persons may be granted more than one (1) Option. However,
eligibility in accordance with this Section shall not entitle any person to be granted an Option, or, having been granted an Option, to be granted an additional Option. 

        5.2   Option Grant Restrictions.    Any person who is not an Employee on the effective date of the grant of an Option
to such person may be granted only a Nonstatutory Stock Option. An Incentive Stock Option granted to a prospective Employee upon the condition that such person become an Employee
shall be deemed granted effective on the date such person commences Service with a Participating Company, with an exercise price determined as of such date in accordance with Section 6.1. 

        5.3   Fair Market Value Limitation.    To the extent that options designated as Incentive Stock Options (granted
under all stock option plans of the Participating Company Group, including the Plan) become exercisable by an Optionee for the first time during any calendar year for stock having a Fair Market Value
greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), the portions of such options which exceed such amount shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 5.3,
options designated as Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of stock shall be determined as of the time the option with
respect to such stock is granted. If the Code is amended to provide for a different limitation from that set forth in this Section 5.3, such different limitation shall be deemed incorporated
herein effective as of the date and with respect to such Options as required or permitted by such amendment to the Code. If an Option is treated as an Incentive Stock Option in part and as a
Nonstatutory Stock Option in part by reason of the limitation set forth in this Section 5.3, the Optionee may designate which portion of such Option the Optionee is exercising. In the absence
of such designation, the Optionee shall be deemed to have exercised the Incentive Stock Option portion of the Option first. Separate certificates representing each such portion shall be issued upon
the exercise of the Option. 

        6.    TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS.

        Options
shall be evidenced by Option Agreements specifying the number of shares of Stock covered thereby, in such form as the Board shall from time to time establish. No Option or
purported Option shall be a valid and binding obligation of the Company unless evidenced by a fully executed Option Agreement. Option Agreements may incorporate all or any of the terms of the Plan by
reference and shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions: 

        6.1   Exercise Price.    The exercise price for each Option shall be established in the discretion of the Board;
provided, however, that (a) the exercise price per share for an Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the effective date of grant of the
Option, (b) the exercise price per share for a Nonstatutory Stock Option shall be not less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the
effective date of grant of the Option, and (c) no Option granted to a Ten Percent Owner Optionee shall 

6

 

have
an exercise price per share less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the effective date of grant of the Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an
Option (whether an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option) may be granted with an exercise price lower than the minimum exercise price set forth above if such Option is granted pursuant
to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner qualifying under the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code. 

        6.2   Exercisability and Term of Options.    Options shall be exercisable at such time or times, or upon such event
or events, and subject to such terms, conditions, performance criteria and restrictions as shall be determined by the Board and set forth in the Option Agreement evidencing such Option; provided,
however, that (a) no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years after the effective date of grant of such Option, (b) no Incentive Stock Option granted to
a Ten Percent Owner Optionee shall be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years after the effective date of grant of such Option, (c) no Option granted to a prospective
Employee, prospective Consultant or prospective Director may become exercisable prior to the date on which such person commences Service with a Participating Company, and (d) with the exception
of an Option granted to an Officer, a Director or a Consultant, no Option shall become exercisable at a rate less than twenty percent (20%) per year over a period of five (5) years from the
effective date of grant of such Option, subject to the Optionee's continued Service. Subject to the foregoing, unless otherwise specified by the Board in the grant of an Option, any Option granted
hereunder shall terminate ten (10) years after the effective date of grant of the Option, unless earlier terminated in accordance with its provisions. 

        6.3   Payment of Exercise Price.

        (a)   Forms of Consideration Authorized.    Except as otherwise provided below, payment of the exercise price for the
number of shares of Stock being purchased pursuant to any Option shall be made (i) in cash, by check or cash equivalent, (ii) by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership,
of shares of Stock owned by the Optionee having a Fair Market Value not less than the exercise price, (iii) by delivery of a properly executed notice together with irrevocable instructions to a
broker providing for the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of a sale or loan with respect to some or all of the shares being acquired upon the exercise of the Option (including, without
limitation, through an exercise complying with the provisions of Regulation T as promulgated from time to time by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) (a  "Cashless
Exercise"), (iv) provided that the Optionee is an Employee (unless otherwise not
prohibited by law, including, without limitation, any regulation promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and in the Company's sole discretion at the time the Option is
exercised, by delivery of the Optionee's promissory note in a form approved by the Company for the aggregate exercise price, provided that, if the Company is incorporated in the State of Delaware, the
Optionee shall pay in cash that portion of the aggregate exercise price not less than the par value of the shares being acquired, (v) by such other consideration as may be approved by the Board
from time to time to the extent permitted by applicable law, or (vi) by any combination thereof. The Board may at any time or from time to time, by approval of or by amendment to the standard
forms of Option Agreement described in Section 7, or by other means, grant Options which do not permit all of the foregoing forms of consideration to be used in payment of the exercise price or
which otherwise restrict one or more forms of consideration. 

        (b)   Limitation on Forms of Consideration.

        (i)    Tender of Stock.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or
attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock to the extent such tender or attestation would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption
of the Company's stock. Unless 

7

 

otherwise
provided by the Board, an Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock unless such shares either have been owned by the Optionee
for more than six (6) months (and not used for another Option exercise by attestation during such period) or were not acquired, directly or indirectly, from the Company. 

        (ii)   Cashless Exercise.    The Company reserves, at any and all times, the right, in the Company's sole and
absolute discretion, to establish, decline to approve or terminate any program or procedures for the exercise of Options by means of a Cashless Exercise. 

        (iii)  Payment by Promissory Note.    No promissory note shall be permitted if the exercise of an Option using a
promissory note would be a violation of any law. Any permitted promissory note shall be on such terms as the Board shall determine. The Board shall have the authority to permit or require the Optionee
to secure any promissory note used to exercise an Option with the shares of Stock acquired upon the exercise of the Option or with other collateral acceptable to the Company. Unless otherwise provided
by the Board, if the Company at any time is subject to the regulations promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other governmental entity affecting the extension of
credit in connection with the Company's securities, any promissory note shall comply with such applicable regulations, and the Optionee shall pay the unpaid principal and accrued interest, if any, to
the extent necessary to comply with such applicable regulations. 

        6.4   Tax Withholding.    The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deduct from the shares of
Stock issuable upon the exercise of an Option, or to accept from the Optionee the tender of, a number of whole shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value, as determined by the Company, equal to all or
any part of the federal, state, local and foreign taxes, if any, required by law to be withheld by the Participating Company Group with respect to such Option or the shares acquired upon the exercise
thereof. Alternatively or in addition, in its discretion, the Company shall have the right to require the Optionee, through payroll withholding, cash payment or otherwise, including by means of a
Cashless Exercise, to make adequate provision for any such tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group arising in connection with the Option or the shares acquired upon the exercise
thereof. The Fair Market Value of any shares of Stock withheld or tendered to satisfy any such tax withholding obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum statutory
withholding rates. The Company shall have no obligation to deliver shares of Stock or to release shares of Stock from an escrow established pursuant to the Option Agreement until the Participating
Company Group's tax withholding obligations have been satisfied by the Optionee. 

        6.5   Repurchase Rights.    Shares issued under the Plan may be subject to a right of first refusal, one or more
repurchase options, or other conditions and restrictions as determined by the Board in its
discretion at the time the Option is granted. The Company shall have the right to assign at any time any repurchase right it may have, whether or not such right is then exercisable, to one or more
persons as may be selected by the Company. Upon request by the Company, each Optionee shall execute any agreement evidencing such transfer restrictions prior to the receipt of shares of Stock
hereunder and shall promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares of Stock acquired hereunder for the placement on such certificates of appropriate legends evidencing
any such transfer restrictions. 

        6.6   Effect of Termination of Service.

        (a)   Option Exercisability.    Subject to earlier termination of the Option as otherwise
provided herein and unless otherwise provided by the Board in the grant of an Option and set forth in the Option Agreement, an Option shall be exercisable after an Optionee's termination 

8

 

of
Service only during the applicable time period determined in accordance with this Section 6.6 and thereafter shall terminate: 

        (i)    Disability.    If the Optionee's Service terminates because of the Disability of the Optionee, the Option, to
the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee (or the Optionee's guardian or legal representative) at any time prior
to the expiration of twelve (12) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board, in its discretion) after the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, but in any event
no later than the date of expiration of the Option's term as set forth in the Option Agreement evidencing such Option (the "Option Expiration
Date"). 

        (ii)   Death.    If the Optionee's Service terminates because of the death of the Optionee, the Option, to the extent
unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee's legal representative or other person who acquired the right to exercise the
Option by reason of the Optionee's death at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board, in its discretion) after the date
on which the Optionee's Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date. The Optionee's Service shall be deemed to have terminated on account of death if the Optionee
dies within three (3) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board, in its discretion) after the Optionee's termination of Service. 

        (iii)  Termination After Change in Control.    The Board may, in its discretion, provide in any Option Agreement
that if the Optionee's Service ceases as a result of "Termination After Change in Control" (as defined in such Option Agreement), then (1) the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable
on the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee (or the Optionee's guardian or legal representative) at any time prior to the expiration of six
(6) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board, in its discretion) after the date on which the
Optionee's Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date, and (2) the exercisability and vesting of the Option and any shares acquired upon the exercise thereof
shall be accelerated effective as of the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated to such extent, if any, as shall have been determined by the Board, in its discretion, and set forth in the
Option Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company and the other party to the transaction constituting a Change in Control agree to treat such transaction as a
"pooling-of-interests" for accounting purposes and it is determined that the provisions or operation of this Section 6.6(a)(iii) would preclude treatment of such
transaction as a "pooling-of-interests" and provided further that in the absence of the preceding sentence such transaction would be treated as a
"pooling-of-interests," then this Section 6.6(a)(iii) shall be without force or effect, and the vesting and exercisability of the Option shall be determined under
any other applicable provision of the Plan or the Option Agreement evidencing such Option. 

        (iv)  Other Termination of Service.    If the Optionee's Service terminates for any reason, except Disability, death
or Termination After Change in Control, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable by the Optionee on the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee
at any time prior to the expiration of three (3) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board, in its discretion) after the date on which the Optionee's Service terminated,
but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date. 

9

 

        (b)   Extension if Exercise Prevented by Law.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
exercise of an Option within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 6.6(a) is prevented by the provisions of Section 10 below, the Option shall remain exercisable until three
(3) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board, in its discretion) after the date the Optionee is notified by the Company that the Option is exercisable, but in any event
no later than the Option Expiration Date. 

        (c)   Extension if Optionee Subject to Section 16(b).    Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if a sale within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 6.6(a) of shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option would subject the Optionee to suit under
Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Option shall remain exercisable until the earliest to occur of (i) the tenth (10th) day following the date on which a sale of such shares by the
Optionee would no longer be subject to such suit, (ii) the one hundred and ninetieth (190th) day after the Optionee's termination of Service, or (iii) the Option Expiration Date. 

        6.7   Transferability of Options.    During the lifetime of the Optionee, an Option shall be exercisable only by the
Optionee or the Optionee's guardian or legal representative. No Option shall be assignable or transferable by the Optionee, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, to the extent permitted by the Board, in its discretion, and set forth in the Option Agreement evidencing such Option, a Nonstatutory Stock Option shall be assignable or transferable
subject to the applicable limitations, if any, described in Section 260.140.41 of Title 10 of the California
Code of Regulations, Rule 701 under the Securities Act, and the General Instructions to Form S-8 Registration Statement under the Securities Act. 

        7.    STANDARD FORMS OF OPTION AGREEMENT.

        7.1   Option Agreement.    Unless otherwise provided by the Board at the time the Option is granted, an Option shall
comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the form of Option Agreement approved by the Board concurrently with its adoption of the Plan and as amended from time to time. 

        7.2   Authority to Vary Terms.    The Board shall have the authority from time to time to vary the terms of any
standard form of Option Agreement described in this Section 7 either in connection with the grant or amendment of an individual Option or in connection with the authorization of a new standard
form or forms; provided, however, that the terms and conditions of any such new, revised or amended standard form or forms of Option Agreement are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan. 

        8.    CHANGE IN CONTROL.

        8.1   Definitions.

        (a)   An
"Ownership Change Event" shall be deemed to have occurred if any of
the following occurs with respect to the Company: (i) the direct or indirect sale or exchange in a single or series of related transactions by the shareholders of the Company of more than fifty
percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Company; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is a party; (iii) the sale, exchange, or transfer of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company; or (iv) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 

        (b)   A
"Change in Control" shall mean an Ownership Change Event or a series of
related Ownership Change Events (collectively, a "Transaction") wherein the shareholders of the Company
immediately before the Transaction do not retain immediately after the Transaction, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of the Company's voting stock immediately before
the Transaction, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company or, in the case of a
Transaction described in Section 8.1(a)(iii), the corporation 

10

 

or
other business entity to which the assets of the Company were transferred (the "Transferee"), as the
case may be. For purposes of the preceding sentence, indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest resulting from ownership of the voting securities of one or more
corporations or other business entities which own the Company or the Transferee, as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations or other business entities. The
Board shall have the right to determine whether multiple sales or exchanges of the voting securities of the Company or multiple Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be
final, binding and conclusive. 

        8.2   Effect of Change in Control on Options.    In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing,
successor, or purchasing corporation or other business entity or parent thereof, as the case may be (the "Acquiring
Corporation"), may, without the consent of any Optionee, either assume the Company's rights and obligations under outstanding Options or substitute for
outstanding Options substantially equivalent options for the Acquiring Corporation's stock. In the event the Acquiring Corporation elects not to assume or substitute for outstanding Options in
connection with a Change in Control, the exercisability and vesting of each such outstanding Option and any shares acquired upon the exercise thereof held by Optionees whose Service has not terminated
prior to such date shall be accelerated, effective as of the date ten (10) days prior to the date of the Change in Control, to such extent, if any, as shall have been determined by the Board,
in its discretion, and set forth in the Option Agreement evidencing such Option. The exercise or vesting of any Option and any shares acquired upon the exercise thereof that was permissible solely by
reason of this Section 8.2 and the provisions of such Option Agreement shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Change in Control. Any Options which are neither assumed or substituted
for by the Acquiring Corporation in connection with the Change in Control nor exercised as of the date of the Change in Control shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the date of
the Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares acquired upon exercise of an Option prior to the Change in Control and any consideration received pursuant to the Change in Control with
respect to such shares shall continue to be subject to all applicable provisions of the Option Agreement evidencing such Option except as otherwise provided in such Option Agreement. Furthermore,
notwithstanding the foregoing, if the corporation the stock of which is subject to the outstanding Options immediately prior to an Ownership Change Event described in
Section 8.1(a)(i) constituting a Change in Control is the surviving or continuing corporation and immediately after such Ownership Change Event less than fifty percent (50%) of the total
combined voting power of its voting stock is held by another corporation or by other corporations that are members of an affiliated group within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the Code
without regard to the provisions of Section 1504(b) of the Code, the outstanding Options shall not terminate unless the Board otherwise provides in its discretion. 

        9.    PROVISION OF INFORMATION.

        At
least annually, copies of the Company's balance sheet and income statement for the just completed fiscal year shall be made available to each Optionee and purchaser of shares of Stock
upon the exercise of an Option. The Company shall not be required to provide such information to key employees whose duties in connection with the Company assure them access to equivalent information.
Furthermore, the Company shall deliver to each Optionee such disclosures as are required in accordance with Rule 701 under the Securities Act. 

        10.    COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAW.

        The
grant of Options and the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise of Options shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state and foreign law with
respect to such securities. Options may not be exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or
other law or 

11

 

regulations
or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, no Option may be exercised unless (a) a registration statement under
the Securities Act shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the
Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The inability
of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company's legal 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. As a condition to the
exercise of any Option, the Company may require the Optionee to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to
make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company. 

        11.    TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT OF PLAN.

        The
Board may terminate or amend the Plan at any time. However, subject to changes in applicable law, regulations or rules that would permit otherwise, without the approval of the
Company's shareholders, there shall be (a) no increase in the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan (except by operation of the provisions of
Section 4.2), (b) no change in the class of persons eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options, and (c) no other amendment of the Plan that would require approval of the
Company's shareholders under any applicable law, regulation or rule. No termination or amendment of the Plan shall affect any then outstanding Option unless expressly provided by the Board. In any
event, no termination or amendment of the Plan may adversely
affect any then outstanding Option without the consent of the Optionee, unless such termination or amendment is required to enable an Option designated as an Incentive Stock Option to qualify as an
Incentive Stock Option or is necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule. 

        12.    SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL.

        The
Plan or any increase in the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock issuable thereunder as provided in Section 4.1 (the  "Authorized Shares") shall be approved by the shareholders of the Company within twelve
(12) months of the date of adoption thereof by the Board. Options granted prior to shareholder approval of the Plan or in excess of the Authorized Shares previously approved by the shareholders
shall become exercisable no earlier than the date of shareholder approval of the Plan or such increase in the Authorized Shares, as the case may be.
