Section 8 . Payment of Purchase Price; Changes in Payroll Deductions; Issuance of Shares. (a) Payroll deductions shall be made on each day that a Participant is paid during an Offering Period in respect of a payroll period with a payment date commencing after the Enrollment Date.

(b) A Participant may discontinue his or her participation in the Plan as provided in Section 9, or may change the rate of his or her payroll deductions during an Offering Period by completing and filing with the Company a new authorization for payroll deduction, subject to clause (a) above. The Committee may, in its discretion, limit the number of participation rate changes in any Offering Period.

Except to the extent provided by the Committee, a Participant may not make any separate cash payments into such Participant's Payroll Deduction Account, and payment for Shares purchased under the Plan may not be made in any form other than by payroll deduction. (d) On each Purchase Date, all funds then in the Participant's Payroll Deduction Account shall be applied to purchase Shares (or fractions thereof) pursuant to the automatic exercise of the Option granted on the Enrollment Date. The Committee may determine with respect to all Participants that any fractional shares shall be rounded down to the next lower whole share, in which event the resulting unused amount in any Participant's Payroll Deduction Account may be carried over into the next Offering Period. (e) Certificates representing the Shares purchased by a Participant under the Plan shall be issued to the Participant as soon as practicable following the end of each Offering Period, except that the Committee may determine that such Shares shall be held for each Participant's benefit by a broker designated by the Committee. (f) The Participant shall have no interest or voting right in the Shares covered by the Participant's Option until such Option is exercised and the covered Shares are registered in the name of the Participant. Section 9 . Withdrawal. Each Participant may withdraw from participation prior to the end of an Offering Period or from the Plan in accordance with procedures set forth by the Committee. Upon a Participant's withdrawal from participation in respect of any Offering Period or from the Plan, all accumulated payroll deductions in the Payroll Deduction Account shall be returned, without interest, to such Participant (except as otherwise required by law or as determined by the Committee), and such Participant shall not be entitled to any Shares on the Purchase Date or thereafter with respect to the Offering Period in effect at the time of such withdrawal. If a Participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions will not resume at the beginning of the succeeding Offering Period unless the Participant re-enrolls in the Plan in accordance with procedures set forth by the Committee prior to the applicable Enrollment Date. Section 10 . Termination of Employment. A Participant shall cease to participate in the Plan upon the Participant's termination of employment for any reason (including death), and all accumulated payroll 5 deductions in the Payroll Deduction Account shall be returned, without interest, to such Participant. For purposes of the Plan, transfers from the Company or a Participating Subsidiary to another Participating Subsidiary or to the Company, as the case may be, shall not be a termination of employment. Employment shall not be deemed to terminate when the Participant goes on a leave of absence approved by the Company in writing, unless otherwise required by the Code and the applicable regulations. Section 11 . Intentionally left blank. Section 12 . Adjustments Upon Certain Events. Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Plan to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to all Options granted under the Plan: (a) In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of (i) the number or type of Shares or other securities issued or reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan, (ii) the Purchase Price and/or (iii) any other affected terms hereunder. (b) In the event of a Corporate Transaction, unless each outstanding Option shall be continued or assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the Company or the successor corporation or a parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation, the Committee shall shorten any Offering Period then in progress by setting a New Purchase Date, which shall be before the date of the consummation of the Corporate Transaction. The Committee shall notify each Participant not less than 10 days prior to the New Purchase Date that (i) a New Purchase Date has been set and (ii) the Participant's Option will be exercised automatically on the New Purchase Date unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 9. Each Offering Period then in effect shall terminate on such New Purchase Date. Section 13 . Nontransferability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Options granted under the Plan shall not be transferable or assignable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Section 14 . Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued hereunder unless the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including the federal and state securities laws and the regulations of any stock exchange or other securities market on which the Company's securities are traded. 6 Section 15 . No Right to Employment. The granting of an Option under the Plan shall impose no obligation on the Company or any Subsidiary to continue the employment of a Participant and shall not lessen or affect the Company's or Subsidiary's right to terminate the employment of such Participant. Section 16 . Amendment or Termination of the Plan. (a) The Plan shall continue until the earliest to occur of the following: (i) termination of the Plan by the Board, (ii) issuance of all of the Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan or (iii) the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the Plan. (b) The Committee may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan or any portion thereof at any time, provided that no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made (x) without the approval of the stockholders of the Company if such amendment, alteration or discontinuation would (except as is provided in Section 12) increase the total number of Shares reserved for purposes of the Plan or as otherwise required by applicable laws or regulations, or (y) without the consent of a Participant, if such amendment, alteration or discontinuation would materially diminish any of the rights or obligations under any Option theretofore granted to such Participant under the Plan. (c) Notwithstanding clause (y) of Section 16(b), the Committee may amend or terminate the Plan, including with respect to any Offering Periods then in effect, without consent of the Participants in such manner as it deems necessary to permit the granting of Options meeting the requirements of the Code or other applicable laws or in the event the Board determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences for the Company. (d) Notwithstanding clause (y) of Section 16(b), the Committee shall have the power to change the duration and timing of Offering Periods (both before and after any Offering Period has commenced). In no event, however, will any such Offering Period be longer than 27 months. Section 17 . Taxes. At the time the Shares are purchased, or at the time some or all of the Shares issued under the Plan are disposed of, the Participant must make adequate provision for the Company's federal, state or other tax withholding obligations, if any, which arise. At any time, the Company, may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant's compensation the amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company any tax deductions or benefits attributable to sale or early disposition of Shares by the Participant. 7 Section 18 . Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflicts of laws. Section 19 . Effectiveness of the Plan.
