N.A., as administrative agent for itself and the other Lenders (in such
capacity, the "Administrative Agent").

                                    RECITALS

         A. Avnet, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are parties to that

         B. Avnet has requested that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders

         C. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders are willing to amend the
Credit Agreement subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment.

         NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of
which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

         1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms
used herein shall have the meanings, if any, assigned to such terms in the
Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

         2. Amendments to Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement shall be
amended, effective as of the Effective Date, at Section 1.01 by amending and
restating the following defined term in its entirety:

                           "Trigger Event" means the occurrence of any of the
                  following on or after the Second Amendment Date: (i) (A) the
                  failure, for whatever reason, to consummate a Permitted
                  Capital Markets Transaction on or before February 14, 2003; or
                  (B) any Borrower submits a Request for Credit Extension, other
                  than on a one-time basis a Letter of Credit Application
                  relating to the issuance of a single Letter of Credit in the
                  amount of $50,000,000 for the benefit of IBM, at any time on
                  or after December 13, 2002, and prior to the date of
                  consummation of a Permitted Capital Markets Transaction; (ii)

                  or by S&P of BB+ or lower or either such rating agency shall
                  withdraw its Debt Rating; or (iii) the day immediately

<PAGE>

                  following the occurrence of an Unwind (other than an Unwind in
                  connection with which Avnet simultaneously consummates and
                  enters into a Permitted Securitization Refinancing) arrives.

         3. Representations and Warranties. Avnet hereby represents and warrants
to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as follows:

                  (a) No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, either immediately prior to or after giving effect to this
Amendment.

                  (b) The execution, delivery and performance by Avnet of this
Amendment have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and other action
and do not and will not require any registration with, consent or approval of,
notice to or action by, any Person (including any Governmental Authority) in
order to be effective and enforceable. The Credit Agreement as amended by this
Amendment constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of Avnet,
enforceable against it in accordance with its respective terms, without defense,
counterclaim or offset.

                  (c) All representations and warranties of Avnet contained in
Article V of the Credit Agreement as amended hereby are true and correct as of
the Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and
warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true
and correct as of such earlier date.

                  (d) Avnet is entering into this Amendment on the basis of its
own investigation and for its own reasons, without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person.

                  (e) As of the Effective Date, there are no Designated
Borrowers under the Credit Agreement.

         4. Effective Date. This Amendment will become effective as of the date
shown first above, provided each of the following conditions precedent has been
satisfied (the "Effective Date"):

                  (a) The Administrative Agent shall have received from each of
Avnet and the Required Lenders a duly executed original (or, if elected by the
Administrative Agent, an executed facsimile copy) counterpart to this Amendment.

                  (b) The Administrative Agent shall have received from the
secretary or assistant secretary of Avnet a certificate providing satisfactory
evidence of the authorization of the execution, delivery and performance by
Avnet of this Amendment and any other documents contemplated hereby.

                  (c) The Administrative Agent shall have received from Avnet a
certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of Avnet, dated as of the
Effective Date and certifying that (i) all representations and warranties
contained herein are true and correct on and as of the Effective Date as though
made on and as of such date and (ii) on and as of the Effective Date, no event
has occurred which has or would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse
effect on the business, assets, liabilities (actual or contingent), operations,
condition (financial or otherwise) or

                                       2
<PAGE>

prospects of Avnet or of Avnet and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or on the
facts and information regarding Avnet and its Subsidiaries as represented as of
the date hereof.

                  (d) The Administrative Agent shall have received from Avnet
payment of all fees required to be paid as of the closing hereof, including, for
the ratable account of each Lender that has executed this Amendment before 3:00
p.m. (Pacific time) on December 13, 2002, an amendment fee of 0.15% (15 b.p.)
times such Lender's total Commitment; such fees shall be fully-earned on the
date so paid and shall be nonrefundable.

                  (e) The Administrative Agent shall have received satisfactory
evidence that Avnet has paid (i) all Attorney Costs of the Administrative Agent
to the extent invoiced prior to the Effective Date (including any previously
invoiced and outstanding Attorney Costs that relate to services previously
provided), plus such additional amounts of Attorney Costs as shall constitute
the Administrative Agent's reasonable estimate of Attorney Costs incurred or to
be incurred by it through the Effective Date (provided that such estimate shall
not thereafter preclude a final settling of accounts between Avnet and the
Administrative Agent) and (ii) all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation,
preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment and any other documents to
be delivered in connection herewith.

                  (f) The Administrative Agent shall have received, in form and
substance satisfactory to it, such additional approvals, consents, opinions,
documents and other information as the Administrative Agent may request.

                  (g) The Fifth Amendment shall have become effective.

                  (h) The Effective Date shall have occurred no later than
December 13, 2002.

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this
Section 4, each Lender that has executed this Amendment and delivered it to the
Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted,
or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent, or made
available for inspection, by the Administrative Agent to such Lender for
consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be
consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Lender.

         5. Reservation of Rights. Avnet acknowledges and agrees that the
execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders of
this Amendment shall not (a) be deemed to create a course of dealing or
otherwise obligate the Administrative Agent or any Lender to execute similar
amendments under the same or similar circumstances in the future or (b) be
deemed to create any implied waiver of any right or remedy of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender with respect to any term or provision of any Loan Document.

         6. Miscellaneous.

                  (a) Except as herein expressly amended, all terms, covenants
and provisions of the Credit Agreement are and shall remain in full force and
effect and all references therein to such Credit Agreement shall henceforth
refer to the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment. This Amendment shall
be deemed incorporated into, and a part of, the Credit Agreement. The Credit
Agreement, as amended hereby, is hereby ratified by Avnet.

                  (b) This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and thereto and their respective successors and
assigns. No third party beneficiaries are intended in connection with this
Amendment.

                  (c) THIS AMENDMENT IS SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTIONS
9.19 AND 9.20 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE PROVISIONS OF WHICH ARE BY THIS
REFERENCE HEREBY INCORPORATED HEREIN IN FULL.

                  (d) This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all such
counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Each of
the parties hereto understands and agrees that this document (and any other
document required herein) may be delivered by any party thereto either in the
form of an executed original or an executed original sent by facsimile
transmission to be followed promptly by mailing of a hard copy original, and
that receipt by the Administrative Agent of a facsimile transmitted document
purportedly bearing the signature of a Lender or Avnet shall bind such Lender or
Avnet, respectively, with the same force and effect as the delivery of a hard
copy original. Any failure by the Administrative Agent to receive the hard copy
executed original of such document shall not diminish the binding effect of
receipt of the facsimile transmitted executed original of such document of the
party whose hard copy page was not received by the Administrative Agent.

                  (e) This Amendment, together with the Credit Agreement,
contains the entire and exclusive agreement of the parties hereto with reference
to the matters discussed herein and therein. This Amendment supersedes all prior
drafts and communications with respect thereto. This Amendment may not be
amended except in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.01 of the Credit
Agreement.

                  (f) If any term or provision of this Amendment shall be deemed
prohibited by or invalid under any applicable law, such provision shall be
invalidated without affecting the remaining provisions of this Amendment or the
Credit Agreement, respectively.

                  (g) Avnet covenants to pay to or reimburse the Administrative
Agent, upon demand, for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in
connection with the development, preparation, negotiation, execution and
delivery of this Amendment and the other documents contemplated hereby.

                  (h) This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document.

 Exhibit 10.1 
  

CARDIMA, INC. 
  
 1993 STOCK OPTION PLAN

  
 (AS AMENDED AND RESTATED JULY 2002) 
  
 I.    PURPOSES OF THE PLAN 
  
 This Amended and Restated 1993 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) is intended to promote the interests of Cardima, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), by providing a method whereby eligible
individuals who provide valuable services to the Corporation (or its parent or subsidiary corporations) may be offered incentives and rewards which will encourage them to acquire a proprietary interest, or otherwise increase their proprietary
interest, in the Corporation and continue to render services to the Corporation (or its parent or subsidiary corporations). 
  
 For purposes of the Plan, the following provisions shall be applicable in determining the parent and subsidiary corporations of the Corporation: 
  
 (i)    Any corporation (other than the Corporation) in an unbroken chain of corporations ending with the Corporation shall be considered
to be a Parent corporation of the Corporation, provided each such corporation in the unbroken chain (other than the Corporation) owns, at the time of the determination, stock possessing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in such chain. 
  
 (ii)    Each corporation (other than the Corporation) in an unbroken chain of corporations beginning with the Corporation shall be considered to be a Subsidiary of the Corporation, provided each such
corporation (other than the last corporation) in the unbroken chain owns, at the time of the determination, stock possessing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in
such chain. 
  
 II.    ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN 
  
 A.    A Committee comprised of non-employee members of the Board who satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”) as it is then in effect to exempt stock awards made hereunder from the short-swing profit recovery rules of Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act (the “Primary Committee”) and who satisfy
the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code shall have sole and exclusive authority to administer the Plan with respect to Section 16 Insiders. 
  
 B.    Administration of the Plan with respect to all other persons eligible to participate in the Plan may, at the Board’s discretion, be vested in
the Primary Committee or a second committee comprised of one or more Board members (the “Secondary Committee”), or the Board may retain the power to administer the Plan with respect to all such persons. The members of the Secondary
Committee may be individuals who are Employees eligible to receive option grants under the Plan or any stock option, stock appreciation, stock bonus or other stock plan of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary) or who have any other business
relationship with the Corporation outside their roles as members of the Board. 
  
 C.    Members
of the Primary Committee or any Secondary Committee shall serve for such period of time as the Board may determine and may be removed by the Board at any time. The Board may also at any time terminate the functions of any Secondary Committee and
reassume all powers and authority previously delegated to such committee. 

 
 1 

  
 D.    Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its
administrative functions under the Plan, have full power and authority (subject to the provisions of the Plan) to establish such rules and regulations as it may deem appropriate for proper administration of the Plan and to make such determinations
under, and issue such interpretations of, the provisions of the Plan and any outstanding options thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable. Decisions of the Plan Administrator within the scope of its administrative functions under the Plan
shall be final and binding on all parties who have an interest in the Plan under its jurisdiction or any option thereunder. 
  
 E.    Service on the Primary Committee or the Secondary Committee shall constitute service as a Board member, and members of each such committee shall accordingly be entitled to full indemnification and
reimbursement as Board members for their service on such committee. No member of the Primary Committee or the Secondary Committee shall be liable for any act or omission made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any grants under the Plan.

  
 III.    ELIGIBILITY FOR OPTION GRANTS 
  
 The persons eligible to receive option grants under the Plan are as follows: 
  
 (i)    key employees (including officers and directors) of the Corporation (or its parent or subsidiary corporations); 

 
 (ii)    the non-employee members of the Board or the non-employee members of the board of
directors of any parent or subsidiary corporation; and 
  
 (iii)    those
consultants who provide valuable services to the Corporation (or its parent or subsidiary corporations). 
  
 The Plan
Administrator shall have full authority to determine which eligible individuals are to receive option grants under the Plan, the number of shares to be covered by each such grant, whether the granted option is to be an incentive stock option
(“Incentive Option”) which satisfies the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code or a non-statutory option not intended to meet such requirements, the time or times at which each such option is to become exercisable, and
the maximum term for which the option is to remain outstanding. 
  
 IV.    STOCK SUBJECT TO
THE PLAN 
  
 A.    The stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of the
Corporation’s authorized but unissued or reacquired Common Stock. The aggregate number of shares which may be issued over the term of the Plan shall not exceed 7,650,690 shares (on a post-split basis). The total number of shares issuable under
the Plan shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Section IV. 
  
 B.    The number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall automatically increase on the first trading day of the 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002 calendar years by an amount equal to
three percent (3%) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding, on December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year; but in no event shall any such annual increase exceed 300,000 shares (on a post-split basis). For purposes of this provision,
the determination of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding shall include securities which are exercisable or convertible into shares of Common Stock, including without limitation all outstanding stock options and warrants. 

 
 C.    No one person participating in the Plan may receive options for more than 500,000 shares of Common
Stock per calendar year, beginning with the 1996 calendar year. 
  
 D.    Shares subject to
outstanding options shall be available for subsequent option grants under the Plan to the extent (i) options expire or terminate for any reason prior to exercise in full and (ii) options are cancelled in accordance with the cancellation-regrant
provisions of Section VIII of the Plan. Shares subject to outstanding options shall not be available for subsequent option grants under the Plan to the extent options are surrendered in accordance with the limited cash-out rights provisions
of Section IX of the Plan. Shares repurchased by the Corporation pursuant to its repurchase rights under the Plan shall not be available for subsequent option grants. 

 
 2 

  
 E.    In the event any change is made to the Common Stock
issuable under the Plan by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without receipt of consideration, appropriate adjustments shall be made
to (I) the aggregate number and/or class of shares issuable under the Plan and (II) the aggregate number and/or class of shares and the option price per share in effect under each outstanding option in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of
benefits thereunder. The adjustments determined by the Plan Administrator shall be final, binding and conclusive. 
  
 F.    To the extent required by Section 260.140.45 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations, the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all outstanding options and the total
number of shares of Common Stock provided for under any stock bonus or similar plan of the Corporation shall not exceed the applicable percentage as calculated in accordance with the conditions and exclusions of Section 260.140.45 of Title 10 of the
California Code of Regulations, based on the shares of Common Stock of the Corporation that are outstanding at the time the calculations is made.(1) 
  
 V.    TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF
OPTIONS 
  
 A.    Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be authorized by action of the
Plan Administrator and may, at the Plan Administrator’s discretion, be either Incentive Options or non-statutory options. Individuals who are not Employees (as defined in subsection 3.C below) may only be granted non-statutory options. Each
granted option shall be evidenced by one or more instruments in the form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that each such instrument shall comply with and incorporate the terms and conditions specified below. Each
instrument evidencing an Incentive Option shall, in addition, be subject to the applicable provisions of Section VI. 
  
 B.    Option Price. 
  
 1.    The option price per
share shall be fixed by the Plan Administrator. In no event, however, shall the option price per share be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of the option grant or, in the case of an
option granted to the owner of stock (as determined under Section 424(d) of the Internal Revenue Code) possessing ten percent (10%) or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation or any one of its parent or
subsidiary corporations (such person to be herein referred to as a 10% Stockholder), the option price per share shall not be less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the grant date.

  
 2.    The option price shall become immediately due upon exercise of the option and shall,
subject to the provisions of Section X and the instrument evidencing the grant, be payable in one or more of the forms specified below: 
  
 (i)    cash or check drawn to the Corporation’s order; 
  
 (ii)    in shares of Common Stock held by the optionee for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Corporation’s earnings for financial reporting purposes and
valued at fair market value on the Exercise Date; or 
 
 

	(1)
	 
	Section 260.140.45 generally provides that the total number of shares issuable upon exercise of all outstanding options (exclusive of certain rights) and the
total number of shares called for under any stock bonus or similar plan shall not exceed a number of shares which is equal to 30% of the then outstanding shares of the issuer (convertible preferred or convertible senior common shares counted on an
as if converted basis), exclusive of shares subject to promotional waivers under Section 260.141, unless a percentage higher than 30% is approved by at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. 
 

 
 3 

  
 (iii)    to the extent the option is
exercised for vested shares, through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the optionee is to provide irrevocable written instructions (I) to a Corporation-designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of the purchased
shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, an amount sufficient to cover the aggregate option price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable Federal and State income and employment
taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation by reason of such purchase and (II) concurrently to the Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to effect the sale transaction.

  
 For purposes of this subparagraph B, the Exercise Date shall be the first date on which there shall have been
delivered to the Corporation both written notice of the exercise of the option and, except to the extent such sale and remittance procedure is utilized, payment of the option price for the purchased shares. 
  
 3.    The fair market value of a share of Common Stock on any relevant date under subparagraph 1 above (and for all
other valuation purposes under the Plan) shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions: 
  
 (i)    If the Common Stock is not at the time listed or admitted to trading on any stock exchange but is traded on the Nasdaq National Market System, the fair market value shall be the closing selling price of one
share of Common Stock on the date in question, as such price is reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers through its Nasdaq system or any successor system. If there is no closing selling price for the Common Stock on the date in
question, then the closing selling price on the last preceding date for which such quotation exists shall be determinative of fair market value. 
  
 (ii)    If the Common Stock is at the time listed or admitted to trading on any stock exchange, then the fair market value shall be the closing selling price per share of Common
Stock on the date in question on the stock exchange determined by the Plan Administrator to be the primary market for the Common Stock, as such price is officially quoted in the composite tape of transactions on such exchange. If there is no
reported sale of Common Stock on such exchange on the date in question, then the fair market value shall be the closing selling price on the exchange on the last preceding date for which such quotation exists. 
  
 (iii)    If the Common Stock at the time is neither listed nor admitted to trading on any stock
exchange nor traded in the over-the-counter market, or if the Plan Administrator determines that the value determined pursuant to subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above does not accurately reflect the fair market value of the Common Stock, then such
fair market value shall be determined by the Plan Administrator after taking into account such factors as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate, including one or more independent professional appraisals. 
  
 C.    Term and Exercise of Options. 
  
 Each option granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time or times, during such period, and for such number of shares as shall be determined by the Plan
Administrator and set forth in the instrument evidencing such option, subject to the minimum vesting requirements of Rule 260.140.41(f) of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations, as applicable. No such option, however, shall have a maximum
term in excess of ten (10) years from the grant date and no Incentive Option granted to a 10% Stockholder shall have a maximum term in excess of five (5) years from the grant date. During the lifetime of the optionee, the option shall be exercisable
only by the optionee and shall not be assignable or transferable by the optionee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. 
  
 D.    Effect of Termination of Employment. 
  
 1.    Except to the extent otherwise provided pursuant to subparagraph 3.D below, the following provisions shall govern the exercise period applicable to any options held by the optionee at the time of cessation
of Service or death: 

 
 4 

  
 (i)    Should the optionee cease to remain in
Service for any reason other than death or Disability, then the period during which each outstanding option held by such optionee is to remain exercisable shall be limited to the three (3)-month period following the date of such cessation of
Service. 
  
 (ii)    In the event such Service terminates by reason of
Disability, then the period during which each outstanding option held by the optionee is to remain exercisable shall be limited to the six (6)-month period following the date of such cessation of Service. However, should such Disability be deemed to
constitute Permanent Disability, then the period during which each outstanding option held by the optionee is to remain exercisable shall be extended by an additional six (6) months so that the exercise period shall be limited to the twelve
(12)-month period following the date of the optionee’s cessation of Service by reason of such Permanent Disability. For all purposes under the Plan, Disability shall mean the inability of an individual to engage in any substantial
gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment and shall be determined by the Plan Administrator on the basis of such medical evidence as the Plan Administrator deems warranted under the circumstances.
Disability shall be deemed to constitute Permanent Disability in the event that such Disability is expected to result in death or has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months.

  
 (iii)    Should the optionee die while holding one or more outstanding
options, then the period during which each such option is to remain exercisable shall be limited to the twelve (12)-month period following the date of the optionee’s death. During such limited period, the option may be exercised by the personal
representative of the optionee’s estate or by the person or persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant to the optionee’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. 
  
 (iv)    Each such option shall, during such limited exercise period, be exercisable for any or all of
the shares for which the option is exercisable on the date of the optionee’s cessation of Service. Upon the expiration of such limited exercise period or (if earlier) upon the expiration of the option term, the option shall terminate and cease
to be exercisable. 
  
 2.    Under no circumstances shall any option be exercisable after the
specified expiration date of the option term. 
  
 3.    For all purposes under the Plan, unless
specifically provided otherwise in the option agreement evidencing the option grant and/or the purchase agreement evidencing the purchased shares, the optionee shall be deemed to remain in Service for so long as such individual renders
services on a periodic basis to the Corporation or any parent or subsidiary corporation in the capacity of an Employee, a non-employee member of the board of directors or a consultant. The optionee shall be considered to be an Employee for so
long as such individual remains in the employ of the Corporation or one or more of its parent or subsidiary corporations, subject to the control and direction of the employer entity as to both the work to be performed and the manner and method of
performance. 
  
 4.    The Board shall have full power and authority to extend the period of time
for which the option is to remain exercisable following the optionee’s termination of Service from the three (3)-month (six (6) months in the case of Disability and twelve (12) months in the case of death or Permanent Disability) or shorter
period set forth in the option agreement to such greater period of time as the Board shall deem appropriate; provided, that in no event shall such option be exercisable after the specified expiration date of the option term. 

 
 E.    Stockholder Rights.    An optionee shall have none of the rights of a
stockholder with respect to the shares subject to the option until such individual shall have exercised the option and paid the option price. 
  
 F.    Repurchase Rights.    The shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of options granted under the Plan may be subject to one or more
repurchase rights of the Corporation in accordance with the following provisions: 

 
 5 

  
 1.    The Plan Administrator may in its discretion determine
that it shall be a term and condition of one or more options exercised under the Plan that the Corporation (or its assignees) shall have the right, exercisable upon the optionee’s cessation of Service, to repurchase at the option price all or
(at the discretion of the Corporation and with the consent of the optionee) part of the unvested shares of Common Stock at the time held by the optionee. Any such repurchase right shall be exercisable by the Corporation (or its assignees) upon such
terms and conditions (including the establishment of the appropriate vesting schedule and other provision for the expiration of such right in one or more installments over the optionee’s period of Service) as the Plan Administrator may specify
in the instrument evidencing such right and shall be subject, to the extent required by Rule 260.140.41(f), to the minimum vesting terms provided in such rule. 
  
 2.    All of the Corporation’s outstanding repurchase rights shall automatically terminate upon the occurrence of any Corporate Transaction under Section VII. 

 
 VI.    INCENTIVE OPTIONS 
  
 The terms and conditions specified below shall be applicable to all Incentive Options granted under the Plan. Incentive Options may only be granted to individuals who are
Employees of the Corporation. Options which are specifically designated as “non-statutory” options when issued under the Plan shall not be subject to such terms and conditions. 
  
 A.    Option Price.    The option price per share of the Common Stock subject to an Incentive Option shall in no event be
less than one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. If the individual to whom the option is granted is a 10% Stockholder, then the option price per share shall not be less than one hundred
and ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the grant date. 
  
 B.    Dollar Limitation.    The aggregate fair market value (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the Common Stock for which one or more options granted to any
Employee under this Plan (or any other option plan of the Corporation or its parent or subsidiary corporations) may for the first time become exercisable as incentive stock options under the Federal tax laws during any one calendar year shall not
exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). To the extent the Employee holds two or more such options which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, the foregoing limitation on the exercisability thereof as
incentive stock options under the Federal tax laws shall be applied on the basis of the order in which such options are granted. 
  
 Except as modified by the preceding provisions of this Section VI, all the provisions of the Plan shall be applicable to the Incentive Options granted hereunder. 
  
 VII.    CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS 
  
 A.    In the event of one or more of the following transactions (a “Corporate Transaction”): 
  
 (i)    a merger or consolidation in which the Corporation is not the surviving entity, except for a transaction the principal purpose of
which is to change the State of the Corporation’s incorporation, 
  
 (ii)    the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation in complete liquidation or dissolution of the Corporation, or 
  
 (iii)    any reverse merger in which the Corporation is the surviving entity but in which all of the
Corporation’s outstanding voting stock is transferred to the acquiring entity or its wholly-owned subsidiary, 
  
 then each option
outstanding under the Plan shall automatically accelerate so that each such option shall, immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction, become fully exercisable for all of the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to such option and may be
exercised for any or all of those shares or fully vested shares of Common Stock. 

 
 6 

  
 B.    Immediately following the consummation of the Corporate
Transaction, all outstanding options shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor Corporation (or parent thereof). 
  
 C.    Each outstanding option which is assumed in connection with the Corporate Transaction or is otherwise to continue in effect shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after
such Corporate Transaction, to apply and pertain to the number and class of securities which would be issuable, in consummation of such Corporate Transaction, to an actual holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock as are subject to such
option immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction, and appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the option price payable per share, provided the aggregate option price payable for such securities shall remain the same. Appropriate
adjustments shall also be made to the class and number of securities available for issuance under the Plan following the consummation of such Corporate Transaction. 
  
 D.    The portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in connection with a Corporate Transaction shall remain exercisable as an Incentive Option only to
the extent the applicable One Hundred Thousand Dollar limitation is not exceeded. To the extent such dollar limitation is exceeded, the accelerated portion of such option shall be exercisable as a Non-Statutory Option under the Federal tax laws.

  
 E.    The grant of options under this Plan shall in no way affect the right of the
Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. 
  
 VIII.    CANCELLATION AND REGRANT OF OPTIONS 
  
 The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to effect, at any time and from time to time, with the consent of the affected optionees, the cancellation of any or all
outstanding options under the Plan and to grant in substitution therefor new options under the Plan covering the same or different numbers of shares of Common Stock but having an option price per share not less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the
fair market value of the Common Stock on the new grant date (or one hundred percent (100%)) of such fair market value in the case of an Incentive Option or, in the case of a 10% Stockholder, not less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of such
fair market value). 
  
 IX.    CASH-OUT OF OPTIONS 
  
 A.    Once the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock is registered under Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act, one or
more optionees subject to the short-swing profit restrictions of the Federal securities laws may, in the Plan Administrator’s sole discretion, be granted limited cash-out rights to operate in tandem with their outstanding options under the
Plan. Any option with such a limited right in effect for at least six (6) months shall automatically be cancelled upon the acquisition of fifty percent (50%) or more of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock (excluding the Common Stock
holdings of officers and directors of the Corporation who participate in this Plan) pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by a person or group of related persons (other than the Corporation or a person that directly or indirectly controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with the Corporation) which the Board does not recommend the Corporation’s stockholders to accept. In return for the cancelled option, the optionee shall be entitled to a cash distribution from the
Corporation in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the Cash-Out Price of the shares of Common Stock in which the optionee is vested under the cancelled option over (ii) the aggregate exercise price payable for such vested shares. The cash
distribution payable upon such cancellation shall be made within five (5) days following the completion of such tender or exchange offer, and neither the approval of the Plan Administrator nor the consent of the Board shall be required in connection
with such cancellation and distribution. 
  
 B.    For purposes of calculating the cash
distribution, the Cash-Out Price per share of the vested Common Stock subject to the cancelled option shall be deemed to be equal to the greater of (i) the fair market value per share on the date of surrender, as determined in accordance with
the valuation provisions of subsection V.1.D, or (ii) the highest reported price per share paid in effecting the tender or exchange offer. However, if the cancelled option is an Incentive Option, then the Cash-Out Price shall not exceed the value
per share determined under clause (i) above. 

 
 7 

  
 C.    The shares of Common Stock subject to any option
cancelled for an appreciation distribution in accordance with this Section IX shall not be available for subsequent option grants under the Plan. 
  
 X.    TAX WITHHOLDING 
  
 A.    The Corporation’s obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of options or upon the vesting of such shares under the Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable
Federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding requirements. 
  
 B.    The Plan
Administrator may, in its discretion, provide any or all holders of Non-Statutory Options or unvested shares of Common Stock under the Plan with the right to use shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of all or part of the Taxes incurred by such
holders in connection with the exercise of their options. Such right may be provided to any such holder in either or both of the following formats: 
  
 (i)    Stock Withholding.    The election to have the Corporation withhold, from the shares of Common Stock
otherwise issuable upon the exercise of such Non-Statutory Option or the vesting of such shares, a portion of those shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated
by the holder. 
  
 (ii)    Stock Delivery.    The
election to deliver to the Corporation, at the time the Non-Statutory Option is exercised or the shares vest, one or more shares of Common Stock previously acquired by such holder (other than in connection with the option exercise or share vesting
triggering the taxes) with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the holder. 
  
 XI.    LOANS 
  
 A.    The Plan Administrator may assist any optionee (including an optionee who is an officer or director of the Corporation) in the exercise of one or more options granted to such optionee, including the
satisfaction of any Federal and State income and employment tax obligations arising therefrom, by (i) authorizing the extension of a loan from the Corporation to such optionee, or (ii) permitting the optionee to pay the option price for the
purchased Common Stock in installments over a period of years. 
  
 B.    The terms of any loan or
installment method of payment (including the interest rate and terms of repayment) shall be established by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion. Loans or installment payments may be granted with or without security or collateral. However,
any loan made to a consultant or other non-employee advisor must be secured by property other than the purchased shares of Common Stock. In all events, the maximum credit available to each optionee may not exceed the sum of (i) the aggregate
option price payable for the purchased shares (less the par value) plus (ii) any Federal and State income and employment tax liability incurred by the optionee in connection with such exercise. 
  

C.    The Plan Administrator may, in its absolute discretion, determine that one or more loans extended under the financial assistance program
shall be subject to forgiveness by the Corporation in whole or in part upon such terms and conditions as the Board in its discretion deems appropriate. 
  
 XII.    NO EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE RIGHTS 
  
 A.    Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon the optionee any right to continue in the service or employ of the Corporation (or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Corporation employing or retaining such
optionee) for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation (or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Corporation employing or retaining such optionee) or of the optionee,
