Vesting Schedule:

Subject to the Grantee’s continued status as a Service
Provider and other limitations set forth in this Notice, the Agreement and the
Plan, the Shares will “vest” in accordance with the following schedule:

[to be determined]

For the purposes of this Vesting Schedule, “Non-GAAP
EPS” shall mean the diluted earnings per share of the Company using United
States generally accepted accounting principles, excluding acquisition-related
adjustments, but after taking into account any cash bonuses paid to the
executive officers of the Company under that certain 2007 Annual Cash Incentive
Plan for Executive Officers and any shares issued under the Plan subject to
performance-based vesting which shares have vested.

The Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of
Directors shall have the authority to make appropriate adjustments in the
revenue and Non-GAAP EPS performance goal specified above (the “performance
goals”) to reflect the impact of any changes in accounting standards or treatments
that may be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board after the Date
of Award.  Notwithstanding the foregoing
vesting terms, the Shares shall not vest unless and until the Compensation
Committee of the Board has certified in writing that the performance goals have
been achieved.  Immediately after the
Compensation Committee determines the

 1
 

degree to which the performance goals have been met,
if at all, the remaining Restricted Shares shall be forfeited and deemed
reconveyed to the Company and the Company shall thereafter be the legal and
beneficial owner of the Restricted Shares and shall have all rights and
interest in or related thereto without further action by the Grantee.  Notwithstanding anything herein, the
Compensation Committee retains the right to reduce or eliminate any vesting of
the Award for any reason.

For purposes of this Notice and the Agreement, the
term “vest” shall mean, with respect to any Shares, that such Shares are no
longer subject to forfeiture to the Company. 
Shares that have not vested are deemed “Restricted Shares.”  If the Grantee would become vested in a
fraction of a Restricted Share, such Restricted Share shall not vest until the
Grantee becomes vested in the entire Share.

Vesting shall cease upon the date the Grantee ceases
to be Service Provider for any reason, including Disability.  Except as provided below, in the event the
Grantee ceases to be a Service Provider for any reason, including Disability,
any Restricted Shares held by the Grantee immediately following such
termination of the Grantee’s status as a Service Provider shall be deemed
reconveyed to the Company and the Company shall thereafter be the legal and
beneficial owner of the Restricted Shares and shall have all rights and
interest in or related thereto without further action by the Grantee.  The foregoing forfeiture provisions set forth
in this Notice as to Restricted Shares shall apply to the new capital stock or
other property (including cash paid other than as a regular cash dividend) received
in exchange for the Shares in consummation of any transaction described in
Section 14 of the Plan and such stock or property shall be deemed
Additional Securities (as defined in the Agreement) for purposes of the
Agreement, but only to the extent the Shares are at the time covered by such
forfeiture provisions.  The Award shall
be subject to the provisions of Section 14 of the Plan in the event of a
merger or asset sale of the Company.

 2
 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the Grantee have
executed this Notice and agree that the Award is to be governed by the terms
and conditions of this Notice, the Plan and the Agreement.

BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER).  THE GRANTEE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
THAT NOTHING IN THIS NOTICE, THE AGREEMENT, NOR IN THE PLAN, SHALL CONFER UPON

THE COMPANY’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE THE GRANTEE’S STATUS AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT
ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE, AND WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE.  THE GRANTEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT UNLESS THE
GRANTEE HAS A WRITTEN EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT WITH THE COMPANY TO THE CONTRARY, THE
GRANTEE’S STATUS IS AT WILL.

As a condition to receiving the Shares, the Grantee
agrees to refrain from making an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the
Code with respect to the Shares.

all questions of interpretation and administration relating to this Notice, the
Plan and the Agreement shall be resolved by the Administrator in accordance

SYMYX TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 1997 STOCK PLAN

RESTRICTED STOCK BONUS AWARD AGREEMENT

1.                                       Issuance
of Shares.  Symyx Technologies, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby issues to the Grantee (the
“Grantee”) named in the Notice of Restricted Stock Bonus Award (the “Notice”),
the Total Number of Shares of Common Stock Awarded set forth in the Notice (the
“Shares”), subject to the Notice, this Restricted Stock Bonus Award Agreement
(the “Agreement”) and the terms and provisions of the Company’s 1997  Stock Plan (the “Plan”), as amended from time to time,
which are incorporated herein by reference. 
Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall
have the same defined meanings in this Agreement.  All Shares issued hereunder will be deemed
issued to the Grantee as fully paid and nonassessable shares, and the Grantee
will have the right to vote the Shares at meetings of the Company’s
stockholders.  The Company shall pay any
applicable stock transfer taxes imposed upon the issuance of the Shares to the
Grantee hereunder.

2.                                       Transfer
Restrictions.  The Shares issued to
the Grantee hereunder may not be sold, transferred by gift, pledged,
hypothecated, or otherwise transferred or disposed of by the Grantee prior to
the date when the Shares become vested pursuant to the Vesting Schedule set
forth in the Notice.  Any attempt to
transfer Restricted Shares in violation of this Section 2 will be null and
void and will be disregarded.

3.                                       Escrow
of Stock.  For purposes of
facilitating the enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement, the Grantee
agrees, immediately upon receipt of the certificate(s) for the Restricted
Shares, to deliver such certificate(s), together with an Assignment Separate
from Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, executed
in blank by the Grantee with respect to each such stock certificate, to the
Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company, or their designee, to hold in
escrow for so long as such Restricted Shares have not vested pursuant to the
Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice, with the authority to take all such
actions and to effectuate all such transfers and/or releases as may be
necessary or appropriate to accomplish the objectives of this Agreement in
accordance with the terms hereof.  The
Grantee hereby acknowledges that the appointment of the Secretary or Assistant
Secretary of the Company (or their designee) as the escrow holder hereunder
with the stated authorities is a material inducement to the Company to make
this Agreement and that such appointment is coupled with an interest and is
accordingly irrevocable.  The Grantee
agrees that the Restricted Shares may be held electronically in a book entry
system maintained by the Company’s transfer agent or other third party and that
all the terms and conditions of this Section 3 applicable to certificated
Restricted Shares will apply with the same force and effect to such electronic
method for holding the Restricted Shares. 
The Grantee agrees that such escrow holder shall not be liable to any
party hereto (or to any other party) for any actions or omissions unless such
escrow holder is grossly negligent relative thereto.  The escrow holder may rely upon any letter, notice
or other document executed by any signature purported to be genuine and may
resign at any time.  Upon the vesting of
Restricted Shares, the escrow holder will, without further order or
instruction, transmit to the Grantee the certificate evidencing such Shares; provided, however,
that no

 1
 

transmittal of certificates evidencing the Shares will
occur unless and until the Grantee has satisfied all Tax Withholding
Obligations (as defined in Section 5(c) below).

4.                                       Additional
Securities and Distributions.

(a)                                  Any
securities or cash received (other than a regular cash dividend) as the result
of ownership of the Restricted Shares (the “Additional Securities”), including,
but not by way of limitation, warrants, options and securities received as a
stock dividend or stock split, or as a result of a recapitalization or
reorganization or other similar change in the Company’s capital structure,
shall be retained in escrow in the same manner and subject to the same
conditions and restrictions as the Restricted Shares with respect to which they
were issued, including, without limitation, the Vesting Schedule set forth in
the Notice.  The Grantee shall be
entitled to direct the Company to exercise any warrant or option received as
Additional Securities upon supplying the funds necessary to do so, in which event
the securities so purchased shall constitute Additional Securities, but the
Grantee may not direct the Company to sell any such warrant or option.  If Additional Securities consist of a
convertible security, the Grantee may exercise any conversion right, and any
securities so acquired shall constitute Additional Securities.  In the event of any change in certificates
evidencing the Shares or the Additional Securities by reason of any
recapitalization, reorganization or other transaction that results in the
creation of Additional Securities, the escrow holder is authorized to deliver
to the issuer the certificates evidencing the Shares or the Additional
Securities in exchange for the certificates of the replacement securities.

(b)                                 The
Company shall disburse to the Grantee all regular cash dividends with respect
to the Shares and Additional Securities (whether vested or not), less any
applicable withholding obligations.

5.                                       Taxes.

(a)                                  No
Section 83(b) Election.  As a
condition to receiving the Shares, the Grantee agrees to refrain from making an
election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to the Shares.

(b)                                 Tax Liability. The Grantee is
ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed by the Grantee in
connection with the Award, regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary takes with respect
to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the
Award.  Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary makes any
representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in
connection with the grant or vesting of the Award or the subsequent sale of
Shares subject to the Award.  The Company
and its Subsidiaries do not
commit and are under no obligation to structure the Award to reduce or
eliminate the Grantee’s tax liability.

(c)                                  Payment of Withholding Taxes.
Prior to any event in connection with the Award (e.g., vesting) that the
Company determines may result in any tax withholding obligation, whether United
States federal, state, local or non-U.S., including any employment tax
obligation (the “Tax Withholding Obligation”), the Grantee must arrange for the
satisfaction of the minimum amount of such Tax Withholding Obligation in a
manner acceptable to the Company.

 2
 

(i)                                     By Share Withholding.  The
Grantee authorizes the Company to, upon the exercise of its sole discretion,
withhold from those Shares issuable to the Grantee the whole number of Shares
sufficient to satisfy the minimum applicable Tax Withholding Obligation.  The Grantee acknowledges that the withheld Shares
may not be sufficient to satisfy the Grantee’s minimum Tax Withholding
Obligation.  Accordingly, the Grantee
agrees to pay to the Company or any Subsidiary
as soon as practicable, including through additional payroll withholding, any
amount of the Tax Withholding Obligation that is not satisfied by the
withholding of Shares described above.

(ii)                                  By Sale of Shares.  Unless the Grantee determines to satisfy the
Tax Withholding Obligation by some other means in accordance with clause (iii)
below, the Grantee’s acceptance of this Award constitutes the Grantee’s
instruction and authorization to the Company and any brokerage firm determined
acceptable to the Company for such purpose to sell on the Grantee’s behalf a
whole number of Shares from those Shares issuable to the Grantee as the Company
determines to be appropriate to generate cash proceeds sufficient to satisfy
the minimum applicable Tax Withholding Obligation.  Such Shares will be sold on the day such Tax
Withholding Obligation arises (e.g., a vesting date) or as soon thereafter as
practicable.  The Grantee will be
responsible for all broker’s fees and other costs of sale, and the Grantee
agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any losses, costs, damages,
or expenses relating to any such sale. 
To the extent the proceeds of such sale exceed the Grantee’s minimum Tax
Withholding Obligation, the Company agrees to pay such excess in cash to the
Grantee.  The Grantee acknowledges that
the Company or its designee is under no obligation to arrange for such sale at
any particular price, and that the proceeds of any such sale may not be
sufficient to satisfy the Grantee’s minimum Tax Withholding Obligation.  Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to pay to the
Company or any Subsidiary as
soon as practicable, including through additional payroll withholding, any
amount of the Tax Withholding Obligation that is not satisfied by the sale of
Shares described above.

(iii)                               By Check, Wire Transfer or Other Means. At
any time not less than five (5) business days (or such fewer number of business
days as determined by the Administrator) before any Tax Withholding Obligation
arises (e.g., a vesting date), the Grantee may elect to satisfy the Grantee’s
Tax Withholding Obligation by delivering to the Company an amount that the
Company determines is sufficient to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation by
(x) wire transfer to such account as the Company may direct,
(y) delivery of a certified check payable to the Company, or (z) such
other means as specified from time to time by the Administrator.

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company also may satisfy any Tax Withholding Obligation by
offsetting any amounts (including, but not limited to, salary, bonus and
severance payments) due to the Grantee by the Company.

6.                                       Stop-Transfer
Notices.  In order to ensure
compliance with the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement, the
Notice or the Plan, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer”
instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and, if the Company transfers its
own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own
records.  The Company may issue a “stop
transfer” instruction if the Grantee fails to satisfy any Tax Withholding
Obligations.

 3
 

7.                                       Refusal
to Transfer.  The Company shall not
be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or
otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement
or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or
pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall
have been so transferred.

8.                                       Restrictive
Legends.  The Grantee understands and
agrees that the Company shall cause the legends set forth below or legends
substantially equivalent thereto, to be placed upon any certificate(s)
evidencing ownership of the Shares together with any other legends that may be
required by the Company or by state or federal securities laws:

THE SHARES
REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE RESTRICTED BY THE TERMS OF THAT CERTAIN
RESTRICTED STOCK BONUS AWARD AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE NAMED
STOCKHOLDER.  THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY
THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH AGREEMENT, A
COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

9.                                       Entire
Agreement: Governing Law.  The
Notice, the Plan and this Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their
entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Grantee
with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to
the Grantee’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and
the Grantee.  These agreements are to be
construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of
California without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the
application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the internal laws of the
State of California to the rights and duties of the parties.  Should any provision of the Notice or this
Agreement be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions
shall nevertheless remain effective and shall remain enforceable.

10.                                 Construction.  The captions used in the Notice and this
Agreement are inserted for convenience and shall not be deemed a part of the
Award for construction or interpretation. 
Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall
include the plural and the plural shall include the singular.  Use of the term “or” is not intended to be
exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

11.                                 Administration
and Interpretation.  Any question or
dispute regarding the administration or interpretation of the Notice, the Plan
or this Agreement shall be submitted by the Grantee or by the Company to the
Administrator.  The resolution of such
question or dispute by the Administrator shall be final and binding on all
persons.

12.                                 Venue.  The parties agree that any suit, action, or
proceeding arising out of or relating to the Notice, the Plan or this Agreement
shall be brought in the United States District Court for the Northern District
of California (or should such court lack jurisdiction to hear such

 4
 

action, suit or proceeding, in a California state
court in the County of Santa Clara) and that the parties shall submit to the
jurisdiction of such court.  The parties
irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection the
party may have to the laying of venue for any such suit, action or proceeding brought
in such court.  If any one or more
provisions of this Section 10 shall for any reason be held invalid or
unenforceable, it is the specific intent of the parties that such provisions
shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it or its application
valid and enforceable.

13.                                 Notices.  Any notice required or permitted hereunder
shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal
delivery, upon deposit for delivery by an internationally recognized express
mail courier service or upon deposit in the United States mail by certified
mail (if the parties are within the United States), with postage and fees
prepaid, addressed to the other party at its address as shown in these
instruments, or to such other address as such party may designate in writing
from time to time to the other party.

Summary
of Terms of Short-Term Incentive Compensation Program for Papa John’s
International, Inc. (the “Company”)

Short-term incentive
compensation. Our short-term incentive compensation plans are intended to drive
short-term (typically one year) operating and financial results deemed crucial
to our long-term success.  Awards under
the management incentive plan and the domestic operations incentive plan are
paid in cash based on the achievement of pre-determined performance metrics.
The actual amounts of the awards are based on actual performance measured at
the end of the fiscal year.  In 2006, the
primary performance metrics of the management incentive plan were corporate
operating income, comparable sales (average same-store, year-over-year sales),
an industry standard used to measure company growth, and comparable domestic
transactions.  The performance metrics
for the domestic operations incentive plan were the same except earnings for
the U.S. domestic business was used instead of corporate operating income.  If target performance were achieved for all
metrics, the plans would fund an award pool in an amount designated by the
Compensation Committee near the beginning of the incentive period.  If target performance exceeds all metrics,
the plans could fund an award pool in excess of the pre-established target pool
amount.  In 2006, there was no limit on
the size of the award pool.  For 2006,
these plans were uncapped, and achievement of performance levels in excess of
target would have resulted in a greater award for each individual.  Eighty percent of the award pool is allocated
to the participants based on individual pre-determined short-term incentive
targets, and the remaining twenty percent of this award pool is allocated to
the participants to reward relative individual performance.

For 2007, all plans other
than the domestic operations profit sharing plan described below are capped at
200% of target prior to any consideration of comparable transactions and
individual performance. In 2007, the primary performance metrics of the plans
are the same as the performance metrics for 2006.  For 2007, payouts may be adjusted upward or
downward based on a scale tied to comparable transactions.

Domestic operations
profit sharing plan. The Senior Vice President, Domestic Operations is eligible
to participate in the Company’s domestic operations profit sharing plan which
yields 3.33% of all profits from domestic operations in excess of budget to
plan participants. Under this plan, the Chief Executive Officer has the
latitude to reduce this payment based on a review of the market conditions
encountered and the resulting degree of difficulty associated with the achieved
performance.
