such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the CEO shall deem appropriate. A separate certificate or certificates will be issued for shares purchased on exercise of an NSO. The provisions of separate NSO’s need not be identical, but each NSO shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the Stock Option Award Agreement or otherwise) the substance of subsections 7.2 through 7.14.

7.2 Term. The provisions of subsections 7.8, 7.9 and 7.10 notwithstanding, an NSO must be exercised within ten (10) years from the Grant Date stated in the Stock Option Award Agreement. In the event of any partial exercise of the NSO, the portion of the NSO exercised shall be for the shares subject to the NSO which became exercisable at the earliest date. To the extent not previously exercised or terminated, an NSO shall terminate and the Shares covered thereby shall revert to and become available for issuance under the Plan immediately following the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date.

7.3 Price. The exercise price per share of Company Stock purchasable under an NSO shall be determined by the CEO, provided however, that the exercise price shall not be less than one hundred (100%) percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Company Stock at the time that the NSO is granted, but in no event less than the par value of the share of Company Stock.

7.4 Time of Exercise. An NSO to purchase a share of Company Stock may not be exercised until after the date on which the NSO was granted and the date on which the share of Company Stock is vested. Except as provided in the Stock Option Award Agreement, an NSO may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during its term. No NSO may be exercised for a fractional share of Company Stock.

7.5 Consideration. An Optionee must pay the Company at the time of exercise of a Stock Award the sum of (i) the exercise price of the Company Stock to be acquired pursuant to the exercise and (ii) the Withholding Obligation. Such payment shall be made pursuant to the terms of the applicable Stock Option Award Agreement and payment options may include: (i) directing the Company to reduce the number of shares of Company Stock delivered to the Optionee, or (ii) payment in cash or by surrendering previously acquired shares of Company Stock having a Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the payment obligation.

7.6 Transferability. An NSO shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order, and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the person to whom the NSO is granted only by such person or by any transferee pursuant to a domestic relations order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the person to whom the NSO is granted may, by delivering written notice to the CEO as provided in subsection 7.10 below, in a form satisfactory to the CEO, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionee, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the NSO.

7.7 Vesting. The total number of shares of Company Stock subject to an NSO shall vest and become exercisable as provided in the Stock Option Award Agreement. Vesting based on service shall count all Continuous Service provided by an Eligible Associate. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the shares of Company Stock subject to an NSO shall be one hundred (100%) percent vested upon the occurrence of a Change in Control.

7.8 Termination of Continuous Service. If an Optionee’s Continuous Service terminates for any reason other than Disability or Death, then if the Optionee has not exercised his or her NSO within ninety (90) days after the date of such termination or within the time specified in the Stock Option Award Agreement, the NSO shall terminate and the shares covered by such NSO such revert to and again become available for issuance under the Plan.

7.9 Disability of Optionee. If an Optionee holding an NSO which has not expired or terminated becomes Disabled and his or her Continuous Service to the Company and its Affiliates ceases by reason thereof, then the NSO held by such Optionee may be exercised at any time within the six (6) month period following such cessation of Continuous Service by virtue of the Disability (to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise the NSO of the date of termination, provided however that a Stock Option Award Agreement may provide for the acceleration of exercisability in the event of Disability). If, at the date of cessation of Continuous Service, the Optionee is not entitled to exercise the entire NSO, the shares covered by the unexercisable portion of the NSO shall revert to and again become available for issuance under the Plan no later than thirty (30) days following the date of termination. If, after cessation of Continuous Service, the Optionee does not exercise his or her NSO within the time specified herein, the NSO shall terminate, and the shares covered by such NSO shall revert to and again become available for issuance under the Plan.

7.10 Death of Optionee. If an Optionee holding an NSO which has not expired or terminated shall die, then the estate of such deceased Optionee, the person or persons to whom the Optionee’s rights under the NSO were transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or the beneficiary designated by the Optionee in a written designation signed by the Optionee and filed with and approved by the Board prior to the Optionee’s death may, at any time within one (1) year after the date of such death (whether or not the six (6) month period specified above in the event of Disability, if applicable, had commenced to run on the date of his or her death) exercise all such NSO’s to the extent such Optionee was entitled to exercise such NSO’s as of the date of the Optionee’s death, provided however, that a Stock Option Award Agreement may provide for the acceleration of exercisability in the event of death. Any such exercise shall be affected by written notice to the Company from the person entitled to exercise the NSO and the person or persons giving the same shall furnish to the Company such other documents or papers as the Company may reasonably require, including without limitation evidence of the authority of such person or persons to exercise the NSO and evidence satisfactory to the Company that any death taxes payable with respect to such shares have been paid or provided for. If, at the time of death, the Optionee was not entitled to exercise the entire NSO, the shares covered by the unexercisable portion of the NSO shall revert to and again become available for issuance under the Plan no later than thirty (30) days following the date of termination. If, after death, the NSO is not exercised within the time specified herein, the NSO shall terminate, and the shares covered by such NSO shall revert to and again become available for issuance under the Plan.

7.11 Right to Cash Out NSOs. In the event an NSO is exercised following the date the Optionee’s Continuous Service terminates, in lieu of delivering option shares to the Optionee following such exercise, the Company may, in its sole discretion, fully discharge its obligations

under the NSO with respect to such exercise by making a cash payment to the Optionee in an amount equal to the excess of the aggregate Fair Market Value of the option shares on the date of exercise over the sum of the exercise price for such shares and the Withholding Obligation.

7.12 Rights Prior To Exercise of NSO. An Optionee shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, including but not limited to rights to dividends, with respect to the shares of Company Stock subject to an NSO until payment of the exercise price and delivery to the Optionee of such shares as provided herein.

7.13 Investors Rights Agreement. The right of an Optionee to receive shares of Company Stock upon exercise of an NSO shall be expressly conditioned on such Optionee agreeing to and actually becoming a party to and bound by the Investors Rights Agreement then in effect by and among the Company and its stockholders.

For a period of ninety (90) days following the termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Service for any reason, Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to redeem all, or any portion, of the shares of Company Stock received by Optionee upon the exercise of the Option and still owned by the Optionee on the date of such termination. The redemption price shall be payable in a lump sum in cash payment and shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares of Company Stock being redeemed on such termination date. Company shall give written notice of its intent to redeem Company Stock to the Optionee within such ninety (90) day period. The actual redemption shall occur on such date as Company may specify and may occur after the end of such ninety (90) day period. The Committee may adopt, from time to time, rules or procedures governing such redemption transactions which shall be binding on Optionee.

7.15 Stock Option Award Agreements. NSO’s granted pursuant to this Plan shall be evidenced by Stock Option Award Agreements in such form as the Board shall from time to time provide. Such Stock Option Award Agreements shall contain the terms and conditions set forth in this Plan for such agreements, including but not limited to the following: (i) time and method of payment; (ii) number of shares of Company Stock to which the agreement pertains; and (iii) NSO Term.

SECTION 8. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

Upon the effectiveness of such Registration, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Optionee must comply with all securities laws that apply to such Optionees and any stock received upon exercise of any NSOs. At such time, the Board may also amend this Plan in order to comply with any securities laws or regulations, including, without limitation, Section 16 of the Exchange Act, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, combine this Plan with another plan that complies with such laws and regulations.

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

The foregoing requirements, and assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if (i) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise or acquisition of stock under the Stock Award has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then applicable security laws. The Company may require the Stock Award holder to provide such other representations, written

assurances or information which the Company shall determine is necessary, desirable or appropriate to comply with applicable securities and other laws as a condition of granting a Stock Award to such Stock Award holder or permitting the Stock Award holder to exercise such Stock Award. The Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place legends on stock certificates issued under the Plan as such counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to comply with applicable securities laws, including but not limited to legends restricting the transfer of the stock.

12.5 Non-Transferable. No Stock Award, or any portion of any Stock Award, granted pursuant to this Plan shall be assignable or transferable by the Recipient of the Stock Award, otherwise than by the will or the laws of descent and distribution, provided however that a Recipient may designate a beneficiary to exercise an NSO after the Recipient’s death pursuant to a written designation of beneficiary filed with and approved by the CEO prior to the Recipient’s death.

12.6 Conditions To Delivery of Stock. No shares of Company Stock shall be delivered pursuant to any Stock Award, including but not limited to the exercise of any NSO, in whole or in part, until (i) there shall have been such compliance as the CEO may deem necessary or advisable with respect to any and all federal and state laws, rules and regulations relating to the authorization, issuance, registration, qualification or sale of securities and (ii) in the case of the exercise of an NSO, payment in full of the exercise price for the exercise of the NSO is received by the Company as permitted in the Stock Option Award Agreement.

12.8 Stock Certificates. All certificates for shares of Company Stock delivered in accordance with any Stock Award issued under the Plan shall be subject to such stock-transfer orders and other restrictions as the CEO may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. with respect to its Automated Quotation System, any stock exchange upon which Company Stock is then listed, and any applicable Federal or state securities law, and the Company may cause a legend or legends to be placed on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

12.9 No Liability. It is the intent of the Company that all NSOs be exempt from the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, or, alternatively, comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Such intent notwithstanding, however, the Company shall in no event have any liability to any Participant, or obligation to make any additional payment to any Participant, with respect to any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on a Participant under Section 409A of the Code.

SECTION 13. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK

13.1 Adjustments Upon Change. If any change is made in the stock subject to the Plan, or subject to any Stock Award, without the receipt of consideration by the Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of shares subject to the Plan pursuant to Section 4, and the outstanding Stock Awards will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and number of shares and price per share of stock subject to such outstanding Stock Awards. Such adjustments shall be made by the Board, the determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive. Such adjustments shall be made such that the adjustment does not result in the grant of a new option for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a “transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company”.)

13.2 Effect Upon Shares of Change. Upon the occurrence of any change subject to subsection 13.1, the excess of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Company Stock subject to an NSO immediately after the change shall not be more than the excess of the Fair Market Value of all shares subject to the NSO immediately before such change. The new NSO or assumption of the old NSO shall not give an Optionee additional rights which the Optionee did not have under the old NSO, or deprive the Optionee of any benefits which the Optionee had under the old NSO. Such change shall in all events be made such that the change does not result in the grant of a new option for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

13.3 Substitution of Assumption of Stock Awards. In the event of a Change of Control any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation shall assume any Stock Awards outstanding under the Plan or shall substitute similar stock awards (including an award to acquire the same consideration paid to the stockholders in the transaction described in this subsection) for those outstanding under the Plan. In the event any surviving or acquiring corporation refuses to assume such Stock Awards or to substitute similar stock awards for those outstanding under the Plan, then (i) with respect to Stock Awards held by persons whose Continuous Service has not terminated prior to such Control Change, the vesting (and if applicable, the exercisability) of Stock Awards held by such persons shall be accelerated immediately prior to such event, and the Stock Awards terminated if not exercised at or prior to such event, and (ii) any Company reacquisition right with respect to shares acquired by such persons under a Stock Award shall lapse immediately prior to such event and the shares held by such persons shall be fully vested. With respect to any other Stock Awards outstanding under the Plan, such Stock Awards shall terminate if not exercised prior to such event.

13.4 Dissolution or Liquidation of Company. In the event of the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, any Stock Awards outstanding under the Plan shall terminate if not exercised prior to such event.

SECTION 14. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND STOCK AWARDS

14.1 Amendment of Plan. The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend, alter, or suspend the Plan. However, except as provided in Section 13 relating to adjustments upon changes in stock, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the stockholders of the Company to the extent stockholder approval is necessary for the Plan to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or any NASDAQ or securities exchange listing requirements, or to the extent that the amendment increases the number of shares of Company Stock to be issued under the Plan.

14.2 Stockholder Approval of Amendment. No amendment, alteration or suspension of the Plan shall be made without the approval of the Company’s stockholders that would, except as provided in Section 13, materially increase the total number of shares of Company Stock available under the Plan or would materially increase benefits accruing under the Plan or materially modify the requirements for participation in the Plan. The CEO may, in the s sole discretion, submit any other amendment to the Plan for stockholder approval, including but not limited to, amendments to the Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder regarding the exclusion of performance-based compensation from the limit on corporate deductibility of compensation paid to certain executive officers.

14.3 Non-Impairment of Rights. Rights and obligations under any Stock Award granted before amendment, alteration or suspension of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan unless (i) the Board requests the consent of the person to whom the Stock Award was granted and (ii) such person consents in writing.

14.4 Amendment of Stock Awards. The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the terms of any one or more Stock Awards previously granted under the Plan, including without limitation previously granted NSOs having higher exercise prices, provided however that the rights of any person under any Stock Award shall not be impaired by any such amendment unless (i) the Board requests the consent of the person to whom the Stock Award was granted and (ii) such person consents in writing and provided that such amendment does not constitute a grant of a new option for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. The Board may correct any defect, supply an omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Stock Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry it into effect. In the event the Company shall assume outstanding Stock Awards or the right or obligation to make future awards of Stock Awards in connection with the acquisition of another corporation or business entity, the Committee may, in its discretion, make such adjustments in the terms of Stock Awards under the Plan as it shall deem appropriate, provided that such adjustment does not result in the grant of a new option for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

SECTION 15. TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN

15.1 Termination of Plan. The Board may terminate the Plan at any time. No Stock Awards may be granted under the Plan after it is terminated.

15.2 Non-Impairment of Rights. Rights and obligations under any Stock Award granted while the Plan is in effect shall not be impaired by termination of the Plan, except with the written consent of the person to whom the Stock Award was granted.

SECTION 16. EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN

The Plan shall become effective as of the Effective Date.

SECTION 17. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of this Plan or any Stock Option Award Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any Participant, or would disqualify the Plan or any Stock Award or any part of any Stock Award under any law deemed applicable by the CEO, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the CEO, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Stock Option Award Agreement, it shall be stricken and the remainder of the Plan or any such agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 18. WITHHOLDING

In the event that any portion of a Stock Award becomes taxable at any time, the Company’s obligation to deliver any shares of Company Stock shall be subject to the Participant’s satisfaction of all applicable federal, state and local tax withholding requirements, if any, as well as the withholding requirements of any foreign jurisdictions arising in connection with or under such Stock Award. In that regard, the Participant shall pay the amount of taxes, if any, required by the law of the United States or any applicable foreign jurisdiction to be withheld as a result of or under such Stock Award, as determined by the Company: (a) by withholding from the amount of shares due the Participant; (b) by allowing the Participant to deliver to the Company shares of Company Stock having a fair market value on the date of payment equal to the amount of such required withholding taxes; or (c) by making payment to the Company in the manner specified by the company, including but not limited to, a deduction from any payments of any kind otherwise due to the Participant from the Company or an Affiliate.

SECTION 19. CHOICE OF LAW

The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and rules and regulations relating to the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and applicable Federal law.
