3

4.                                       EXERCISE OF THE OPTION.

4.1                                 Right to Exercise.  Except as otherwise provided herein, the Option shall be exercisable on and after the Initial Vesting Date and prior to the termination of the Option (as provided in Section 7) in an amount not to exceed the number of Vested Shares less the number of shares previously acquired upon exercise of the Option.  In no event shall the Option be exercisable for more shares than the Number of Option Shares.

4.2                                 Method of Exercise.  Exercise of the Option shall be by means of electronic notice in a form authorized by the Company, which shall be digitally signed or authenticated by the Participant in such manner as required by the notice and transmitted to the Equity Compensation Department of the Company or other authorized representative of the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company).  In the event that the Participant is not authorized or is unable to provide electronic notice of exercise, the Option shall be exercised by written notice to the Company, which shall be signed by the Participant and delivered in person, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, by confirmed facsimile transmission, or by such other means as the Company may permit, to the Equity Compensation Department of the Company, or other authorized representative of the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company).  Each such notice, whether electronic or written, must state the Participant’s election to exercise the Option, the number of whole shares of Stock for which the Option is being exercised and such other representations and agreements as to the Participant’s investment intent with respect to such shares as may be required pursuant to the provisions of this Option Agreement.  Further, each such notice must be received by the Company prior to the termination of the Option as set forth in Section 7 and must be accompanied by full payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock being purchased.  The Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such electronic or written notice and the aggregate Exercise Price.

4.3                                 Payment of Exercise Price.

(a)                                  Forms of Consideration Authorized.  Except as otherwise provided below, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock for which the Option is being exercised shall be made (i) in cash, by check or by cash equivalent or (ii) by means of a Cashless Exercise, as defined in Section 4.3(b).

(b)                                 Cashless Exercise.  A “Cashless Exercise” means the delivery of a properly executed notice of exercise together with irrevocable instructions to a broker in a form acceptable to the Company 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 pursuant to a program or procedure approved by the Company (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).  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 such program or procedure, including with respect to the Participant notwithstanding that such program or procedures may be available to others.

4.4                                 Tax Withholding.  Regardless of any action taken by the Participating Company Group with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and that the Participating Company Group (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Option, including the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of shares acquired pursuant to such exercise, or the receipt of any dividends and (ii) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any other aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items.  At the time of exercise of the Option, the Participant shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Participating Company Group to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group.  In this regard, at the time the Option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the Participant hereby authorizes withholding of all applicable Tax-Related Items from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Participant, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for withholding of all applicable Tax Related Items by the Participating Company Group, if any, which arise in connection with the Option.  Alternatively, or in addition, if permissible under applicable law, the Participating Company Group may (i) sell or arrange for the sale of shares acquired by the Participant to meet the withholding obligation of Tax-Related

4

Items and/or (ii) withhold in shares, provided that only the amount of shares necessary to satisfy the minimum withholding amount are withheld.  Finally, the Participant shall pay to the Participating Company Group any amount of the Tax-Related Items that the Participating Company Group may be required to withhold as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.  The Company shall have no obligation to process the exercise of the Option or to deliver shares of Stock until the obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section have been satisfied by the Participant.

4.5                                 Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration.  The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the exercise of the Option.  Except as provided by the preceding sentence, a certificate for the shares as to which the Option is exercised shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.

4.6                                 Restrictions on Grant of the Option and Issuance of Shares.  The grant of the Option and the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise of the Option shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities.  The Option 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 regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed.  In addition, the Option may not be exercised unless (i) 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 (ii) 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 PARTICIPANT IS CAUTIONED THAT THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED.  ACCORDINGLY, THE PARTICIPANT MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS VESTED.  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 subject to the Option 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 the Option, the Company may require the Participant 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.

4.7                                 Fractional Shares.  The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the exercise of the Option.

5.                                       NONTRANSFERABILITY OF THE OPTION.

The Option may be exercised during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative and may not be assigned or transferred in any manner except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  Following the death of the Participant, the Option, to the extent provided in Section 8, may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Participant’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution.

6.                                       NATURE OF OPTION.

In accepting the Option, the Participant acknowledges that:

6.1                                 the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company; it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Option Agreement;

6.2                                 the grant of the Option is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Options, or benefits in lieu of Options, even if Options have been granted repeatedly in the past;

5

6.3                                 all decisions with respect to future Option grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

6.4                                 the Participant’s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further employment with the Participating Company Group and shall not interfere with any ability of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s employment relationship at any time with or without cause;

6.5                                 the Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan;

6.6                                 the Option is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments;

6.7                                 the future value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

6.8                                 if the underlying shares do not increase in value, the Option will have no value;

6.9                                 if the Participant exercises the Option and obtains shares, the value of those shares acquired upon exercise may increase or decrease in value, even below the Option price; and

6.10                           no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Option or diminution in value of the Option or shares purchased through exercise of the Option resulting from termination of the Participant’s Service with the Participating Company Group (for any reason whether or not in breach of applicable labor laws) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Participating Company Group from any such claim that may arise.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen then, by signing this Option Agreement, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived your entitlement to pursue such a claim.

7.                                       TERMINATION OF THE OPTION.

The Option shall terminate and may no longer be exercised after the first to occur of (a) the Option Expiration Date, (b) the last date for exercising the Option following termination of the Participant’s Service as described in Section 8, or (c) a Change in Control to the extent provided in Section 9.

(c)                                  Disability.  If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Disability of the Participant, then (i) the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant (or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative) at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date, and (ii) solely for the purpose of computing the Vested Percentage, the Participant will be given credit for an additional twelve (12) months of continuous Service; provided, however, that in no event shall the Vested Percentage exceed 100%.

8.2                                 Extension if Exercise Prevented by Law.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the exercise of the Option within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 8.1 is prevented by the provisions of Section 4.6, the Option shall remain exercisable until three (3) months after the date the Participant is notified by the Company that the Option is exercisable, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.

8.3                                 Extension if Participant Subject to Section 16(b).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a sale within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 8.1 of shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option would subject the Participant 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 Participant would no longer be subject to such suit, (ii) the one hundred and ninetieth (190th) day after the Participant’s termination of Service, or (iii) the Option Expiration Date.

9.                                       CHANGE IN CONTROL.

9.1                                 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 by the stockholders of the Company of all or substantially all 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 (other than a sale, exchange or transfer to one or more subsidiaries of the Company); or (iv) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

(b)                                 A “Change in Control” shall mean an Ownership Change Event or series of related Ownership Change Events (collectively, a “Transaction”) in which the stockholders of the Company immediately before the Transaction do not retain immediately after 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 an Ownership Change Event described in Section 9.1(a)(iii), the entity to which the assets of the Company were transferred.

9.2                                 Effect of Change in Control on Option.  In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing entity or parent thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiror”), may, without the consent of Participant, either assume the Company’s rights and obligations under outstanding the Option or substitute for the Option a substantially equivalent option for the Acquiror’s stock.  In the event the Acquiror elects not to assume or substitute for the Option in connection with a Change in Control, the Committee shall provide that any unexercised and/or unvested portions of the Option shall be immediately exercisable and vested in full as of the date thirty (30) days prior to the date of the Change in Control.  Any exercise of the Option that was permissible solely by reason of this Section 9.2 shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Change in Control.  The Option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the time of consummation of the Change in Control to the extent that the Option is neither assumed by the Acquiror in connection with the Change in Control nor exercised as of the time of consummation of the Change in Control.

10.                                 ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.

In the event of any change in the Stock through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (excepting normal cash dividends) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number, Exercise Price and class of shares subject to the Option.  If a majority of the shares which are of the same class as the shares that are subject to the Option are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) shares of another corporation (the “New Shares”), the Committee may unilaterally amend the Option to provide that the Option is exercisable for New Shares.  In the event of any such amendment, the Number of Option Shares and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner, as determined by the Committee, in its discretion.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 10 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and in no event may the Exercise Price be decreased to an amount less than the par value, if any, of the stock subject to the Option. The adjustments determined by the Committee pursuant to this Section 10 shall be final, binding and conclusive.

11.                                 RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER OR EMPLOYEE.

The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by the Option until the date of the issuance of the shares for which the Option has been exercised (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company).  No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are issued, except as provided in Section 10.  The Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participant’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified term.  Nothing in this Option

Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s Service as an Employee at any time.

12.                                 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

12.1                           Designation of Beneficiary.  Subject to local laws and procedures, the Participant may file with the Company a written designation of a beneficiary who, in the event of the death of the Participant, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option to the extent that it remains exercisable in accordance with this Option Agreement.  Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company, and shall be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant’s lifetime.  If the Participant is married and designates a beneficiary other than the Participant’s spouse, the effectiveness of such designation may be subject to the consent of the Participant’s spouse.  If the Participant dies without an effective designation of a beneficiary who is living at the time of the Participant’s death, the Option may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative to the extent that it remains exercisable in accordance with this Option Agreement.  If the designated beneficiary survives the Participant but dies before exercising the Option to the full extent that it remains exercisable in accordance with this Option Agreement, then the Option shall be exercisable by the legal representative of such deceased designated beneficiary to the extent that it remains exercisable in accordance with this Option Agreement.  The determination of the Company as to which person, if any, qualifies as a designated beneficiary shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons.

12.2                           Binding Effect.  This Option Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

12.3                           Termination or Amendment.  The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan or the Option at any time; provided, however, that except as provided in Section 9.2 in connection with a Change in Control, no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Option or any unexercised portion hereof without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with any applicable law or government regulation.  No amendment or addition to this Option Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.

12.4                           Delivery of Documents and Notices.  Any document relating to participating in the Plan and/or notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (except to the extent that this Option Agreement provides for effectiveness only upon actual receipt of such notice) upon personal delivery, electronic delivery, or upon deposit in the U.S. Post Office or foreign postal service, by registered or certified mail, with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party at the e-mail address, if any, provided for the Participant by a Participating Company or at the address shown below that party’s signature to this Option Agreement or at such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to time to the other party.

(a)                                  Description of Electronic Delivery.  The Plan documents, which may include but do not necessarily include: the Plan Prospectus, this Option Agreement and U.S. financial reports of the Company, may be delivered to the Participant electronically.  In addition, the Participant may deliver electronically the notice called for by Section 4.2 (the “Notice of Exercise”) to the Company or to such third party involved in administering the Plan as the Company may designate from time to time.  Such means of delivery may include but do not necessarily include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other delivery determined at the Committee’s discretion.

(b)                                 Consent to Electronic Delivery.  The Participant acknowledges that the Participant has read Section 12.4 of this Option Agreement and consents to the electronic delivery of the Plan documents and the delivery of the Notice of Exercise, as described in Section 12.4(a) of this Option Agreement.  The Participant acknowledges that he or she may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if the Participant contacts the Company by telephone, through a postal service or electronic mail at ***@***.  The Participant further acknowledges that the Participant will be provided with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails; similarly, the Participant understands that the Participant must provide the Company or any designated third party with a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically if electronic delivery fails.  Also, the Participant understands that the

10

Participant’s consent may be revoked or changed, including any change in the electronic mail address to which documents are delivered (if Participant has provided an electronic mail address), at any time by notifying the Company of such revised or revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail at ***@***.  Finally, the Participant understands that he or she is not required to consent to electronic delivery.

12.5                           Data Privacy Consent.  The Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Participant’s personal data as described in this document by and among the members of the Participating Company Group for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

The Participant understands that the Company and the Participating Company Group hold certain personal information about the Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Options or any other entitlement to shares of Stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“Data”).  The Participant understands that Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the Participant’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Participant’s country.  The Participant understands that he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting the Participant’s local human resources representative.  The Participant authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Participant may elect to deposit any shares of Stock acquired upon exercise of the Option.  The Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan.  The Participant understands that he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Participant’s local human resources representative.  The Participant understands, however, that refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan.  For more information on the consequences of the Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Participant understands that he or she may contact the Participant’s local human resources representative.

12.6                           Integrated Agreement.  This Option Agreement, together with the Superseding Agreement, if any, constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the Participant and the Participating Company Group with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes any prior agreements, understandings, restrictions, representations, or warranties among the Participant and the Participating Company Group with respect to such subject matter other than those as set forth or provided for herein.  To the extent contemplated herein, the provisions of this Option Agreement shall survive any exercise of the Option and shall remain in full force and effect.

12.7                           Applicable Law.  This Option Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California as such laws are applied to agreements between California residents entered into and to be performed entirely within the State of California.

11

12.8                           Counterparts.  This Option Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
