(a) Any portion of the Option that has become exercisable may be exercised by delivery of a duly executed written notice of exercise to the Corporation at its principal business office using such form(s) as may be required from time to time by the Corporation.

(b) No Option Shares shall be delivered pursuant to any exercise of the Option until payment in full of the Exercise Price therefor is received by the Corporation in accordance with Section 5.5 of the Plan and Participant has paid to the Corporation an amount equal to any federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and employment taxes required to be withheld in accordance with Section 8.5 of the Plan. In addition, the Corporation will permit Participant (or his permitted transferee pursuant to Section 5.7 of the Plan, guardian or legal representative, if applicable) to exercise all or any portion of his then-exercisable Option through cashless exercise (as permitted under the Management Investor Rights Agreement (as defined below), if applicable) or, with the consent of the Administrator, a reduction in the number of Option Shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to the Option (to satisfy the exercise price but not any applicable withholding taxes, unless (i) Participant’s employment or service terminates due to his death or Disability or is terminated by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries without Cause or by Participant for Good Reason or as a result of a Non-Renewal Termination or (ii) Participant’s Performance-Based Option becomes exercisable by virtue of the operation of Section 4(b), in which case Participant may use cashless exercise (as permitted under the Management Investor Rights Agreement, if applicable) or, with the consent of the Administrator, a reduction in the number of Option Shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to the Option, to satisfy the minimum amount of withholding taxes due on exercise), but only to the extent such right or the utilization of such right would not cause the Option to be subject to Section 409A of the Code.

(c) Subject to Section 8.1 of the Plan, upon the exercise of the Option and, prior to the occurrence of an Initial Public Offering (as defined below), no Option Shares shall be issued to or recorded in the name of Participant until Participant agrees to be bound by and executes the Management Investor Rights Agreement.

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, “Initial Public Offering” shall be deemed to occur on the effective date of the first registration statement (other than (i) a registration relating to an employee benefit plan or employee stock plan, a dividend reinvestment plan, or a merger or a consolidation (including without limitation a registration relating to an employee investment or rollover opportunity or participation in this Plan), (ii) a registration incidental to an issuance of securities under Rule 144A, (iii) a registration on Form S-4 or any successor form, or (iv) a

5

registration on Form S-8 or any successor form) filed to register at least 10% of the total then-outstanding equity interests in the Corporation under the Securities Act. The fact that the Corporation has a class of equity securities registered under the Exchange Act shall not constitute an Initial Public Offering.

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Management Investor Rights Agreement” shall mean the Amended and Restated Management Investor Rights Agreement, among the Corporation and certain of its stockholders, as may be amended from time to time, or such other stockholders’ agreement as may be entered into between the Corporation and any participant in the Plan.

6. Rights as a Stockholder. Participant shall not be deemed for any purpose to be the owner of any shares subject to this Option unless, until and to the extent that (a) the Corporation shall have issued and delivered to Participant the Option Shares, (b) Participant’s name shall have been entered as a stockholder of record with respect to such Option Shares on the books of the Corporation, and (c) prior to the occurrence of an Initial Public Offering, Participant agrees to be bound by and executes the Management Investor Rights Agreement.

7.         Compliance with Legal Requirements.

(a) Generally. The granting, vesting and exercising of the Option, delivery of Option Shares upon such exercise, and any other obligations of the Corporation under this Agreement, shall be subject to all applicable federal, provincial, state, local and foreign laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required. The Administrator shall have the right to impose such restrictions on the Option as it deems necessary or advisable under applicable federal securities laws, the rules and regulations of any stock exchange or market upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed or traded, and/or any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such shares. Participant agrees to take all steps the Administrator or the Corporation determines are necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of federal and state securities law in exercising his rights under this Agreement.

(b) Tax Withholding. The exercise of the Option (or any portion thereof) shall be subject to Participant satisfying any applicable federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations. The Corporation shall have the power and the right to require Participant to remit to the Corporation or deduct or withhold from all amounts payable to Participant in connection with the Option or otherwise, an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable taxes required by law. Further, the Corporation may permit or require Participant to satisfy, in whole or in part, the tax obligations by withholding shares of Common Stock that otherwise would be received upon exercise of the Option.

8.         Miscellaneous.

(a) Transferability.

be unreasonably withheld, and compliance with all applicable tax, securities and other laws, any trust or custodianship created by Participant for estate planning purposes, the beneficiaries of which may include only Participant or Participant’s family members (as defined in Form S-8), or (iv) as otherwise permitted under Section 5.7.2 or 5.7.3 of the Plan.

(b) Waiver. Any right of the Corporation contained in this Agreement may be waived in writing by the Administrator. No waiver of any right hereunder by any party shall operate as a waiver of any other right, or as a waiver of the same right with respect to any subsequent occasion for its exercise, or as a waiver of any right to damages. No waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other breach or a waiver of the continuation of the same breach.

(c) Section 409A. The Option is not intended to be subject to Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of the Plan or this Agreement, if any provision of the Plan or this Agreement contravenes Section 409A of the Code or could cause Participant to incur any tax, interest or penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion and without Participant’s consent, modify such provision to (i) comply with, or avoid being subject to, Section 409A of the Code, or to avoid the incurrence of taxes, interest and penalties under Section 409A of the Code, and/or (ii) maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent and economic benefit to Participant of the applicable provision without materially increasing the cost to the Corporation or contravening the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Section 8(c) does not create an obligation on the part of the Corporation to modify the Plan or this Agreement and does not guarantee that the Option or the Option Shares will not be subject to interest and penalties under Section 409A.

(d) Notices. Any written notices provided for in this Agreement or the Plan shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficiently given if either hand delivered or if sent by fax, pdf/email or overnight courier, or by postage paid first class mail. Notices sent by mail shall be deemed received three business days after mailing but in no event later than the date of actual receipt. Notices shall be directed, if to Participant, at Participant’s address indicated by the Corporation’s records, or if to the Corporation, to the Corporation’s principal business office.

(e) Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, and each other provision of this Agreement shall be severable and enforceable to the extent permitted by law.

(f) No Rights to Employment or Service. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as giving Participant any right to be retained, in any position, as an employee or consultant of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the right of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, which is hereby expressly reserved, to remove, terminate or discharge Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever.

(g) No Rights to Award. The grant to Participant of the Option pursuant to this Agreement shall not give Participant any claim or rights to be granted any future award or additional awards under the Plan, subject to any express contractual rights (set forth in a document other than the Plan and this Agreement) to the contrary.

7

(h) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares shall be delivered under this Agreement. In lieu of issuing a fraction of a share in settlement of the exercised Option, the Corporation shall be entitled to pay to Participant an amount in cash equal to the fair market value (as defined in the Plan) of such fractional share.

(i) Beneficiary. Participant may file with the Administrator a written designation of a beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Administrator and may, from time to time, amend or revoke such designation. If no validly designated beneficiary survives Participant, Participant’s estate shall be deemed to be Participant’s beneficiary.

(j) Bound by Plan. By signing this Agreement, Participant acknowledges that Participant has received a copy of the Plan and has had an opportunity to review the Plan and agrees to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Plan.

(k) Successors. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Corporation and its successors and assigns, and of Participant and the beneficiaries, executors, administrators, heirs and successors of Participant.

(m) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of law thereof, or principles of conflicts of laws of any other jurisdiction that could cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.
