(vi)    approve forms of Award Agreements for use under this Plan;

(vii)    determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, of any Award granted under this Plan, including but not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Awards may be exercised (which may be based on Performance Goals), any acceleration of vesting or waiver of forfeiture or repurchase restrictions (subject to the provisions of Section 6), and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;

(viii)    construe and interpret the terms of this Plan, Award Agreements and Awards granted pursuant to this Plan;

(ix)    prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to this Plan, including rules and regulations relating to the creation and administration of sub-plans;

(x)    amend the terms of any outstanding Award Agreement or Award, including the discretionary authority to extend the post‑termination exercise period of Awards and accelerate the satisfaction of any vesting criteria or waiver of forfeiture or repurchase restrictions, provided that any amendment that would adversely affect the Participant’s rights under an outstanding Award shall not be made without the Participant’s written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an amendment shall not be treated as adversely affecting the rights of the Participant if the amendment causes an Incentive Stock Option to become a Non-Qualified Option or if the amendment is made to the minimum extent necessary to avoid the adverse tax consequences of Section 409A of the Code;

(xi)    allow Participants to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares or cash to be issued upon exercise or vesting of an Award up to the number of Shares or cash having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld based on any amount up to the minimum supplemental income tax rate in the applicable jurisdiction. The Fair Market Value of any Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined, and all elections by a Participant to have Shares or cash withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable;

(xii)    authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award previously granted by the Administrator;

(xiii)    allow a Participant to defer the receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares that would otherwise be due to the Participant under an Award;

(xiv)    determine whether Awards shall be settled in Shares, cash or in a combination thereof;

(xv)    determine whether Awards shall be adjusted for dividends or Dividend Equivalents, provided, however, that to the extent an Award is to be settled in Shares, any dividends or Dividend Equivalents shall not be issued or granted with respect to unvested Awards, and instead shall be held (or, in the case of Dividend Equivalents, credited to a notional bookkeeping account for the benefit of the Participant) by the Company and delivered to the Participant, if at all, only upon such Award becoming vested or settled, as applicable;

(xvi)    create Other Stock-Based Awards for issuance under this Plan;

(xvii)    impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by a Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any Shares issued as a result of or under an Award, including without limitation, (A)    restrictions under an insider trading policy, and (B) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers;

(xviii)    establish one or more programs under this Plan to permit selected Participants the opportunity to elect to defer receipt of consideration upon exercise of an Award, satisfaction of Performance Goals, or other event that absent the election, would entitle the Participant to payment or receipt of Shares or other consideration under an Award;

(xix)    to interpret, administer, reconcile any inconsistency in, correct any defect in and/or supply any omission in this Plan, any Award Agreement and any other instrument or agreement relating to an Award; and

(xx)    make all other determinations that the Administrator deems necessary or advisable for administering this Plan.

The express grant in this Plan of any specific power to the Administrator shall not be construed as limiting any power or authority of the Administrator. However, the Administrator may not exercise any right or power reserved to the Board. To the extent the Compensation Committee serves as the Administrator with respect to grants of Awards, no member of the Compensation Committee shall vote or act upon any matter relating solely to himself/herself; grants of Awards to members of the Compensation Committee must be ratified by the Board.

(c)    Prohibition on Repricing of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, no repricing of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be effectuated without the prior approval of the Company’s stockholders; provided, however, that the foregoing prohibition shall not apply to the extent an adjustment is required under Section 15. The exercise price of Options may not be reduced and Options may not be cancelled in exchange for other awards, or cancelled in exchange for Options having a lower exercise price, or cancelled in exchange for cash, without stockholder approval.

(d)    Effect of Administrator’s Decision. The Administrator’s decisions, determinations, actions and interpretations shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons having an interest in this Plan.

(e)    Indemnification. The Company shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, defend and indemnify members of the Board, each Committee, the Administrator, officers and Employees of the Company or of an Affiliate thereof to whom authority to act for the Board, each Committee, the Administrator or the Company is delegated (“Indemnitees”) against (i) all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the defense of any claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein (collectively, a “Claim”), to which any of them is a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act in connection with this Plan, or in connection with any Award granted under this Plan; and (ii) all amounts required to be paid by them in settlement of a Claim (provided the settlement is approved by the Company) or required to be paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any Claim. However, no person shall be entitled to indemnification to the extent it is determined in such Claim that such person did not in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company (or in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reason to believe that the conduct complained of was unlawful). In addition, to be entitled to indemnification, the Indemnitee must, within 30 days after written notice of the Claim, offer the Company, in writing, the opportunity, at the Company’s expense, to defend the Claim. The right to indemnification shall be in addition to all other rights of indemnification available to the Indemnitee.

6.    Minimum Vesting Requirement. Except as permitted under the Carve-Out Exception (defined below), all Awards shall be subject to a minimum vesting requirement of at least one year from the date the Award was granted, and no portion of any such Award may vest or become exercisable earlier than the first anniversary of the date such Award was granted; provided, however, that for purposes of Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors, “one year” may mean the approximately one-year period from one regular annual stockholder meeting to the immediately following regular annual stockholder meeting, as long as the period is not less than 50 weeks. The foregoing minimum vesting requirement shall not apply:

(i) with respect to 5% of the Share reserve as initially set forth in Section 3(a) (such 5% being referred to herein as the “Carve-Out Exception”) or (ii) to the vesting of an Award that is accelerated as a result of a Change of Control or termination of the Participant due to his or her death or Disability, in all cases under terms consistent with this Plan. To the extent Section 3(a) is amended to increase the number of Shares reserved therein, then 5% of the Shares subject to such increase shall be added to, and increase, the number of Shares subject to the Carve-Out Exception.

(a)    Grant of Options. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Options to Service Providers in such amounts as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

Each Award of an Option shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the exercise price, the term of the Option, the number of Shares subject to the Option, the exercise restrictions (if any) applicable to the Option, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

(c)    Term of Option. The term of each Option shall be stated in the Award Agreement. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the maximum term shall be 10 years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. Moreover, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Affiliate, the maximum term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be five years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. Unless set forth otherwise in the Award Agreement, a Non-Qualified Option shall have a maximum term of 10 years. In no event shall a Non-Qualified Option have a maximum term longer than 10 years.

(d)    $100,000 Limitation for Incentive Stock Options. Each Option shall be designated in the Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Affiliate) exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Options. For purposes of this Section 7(d), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Options with respect to such Shares are granted.

(e)    Option Exercise Price and Consideration.

(i)    Exercise Price. The per Share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be determined by the Administrator, subject to the following:

(1)    In the case of an Incentive Stock Option:

(A)    granted to an Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Affiliate, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(B)    granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in paragraph (A) immediately above, the per Share exercise price shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(2)    In the case of a Non-Qualified Option, the per Share exercise price shall be determined by the Administrator, but shall not be less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(3)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code.

(ii)    Waiting Period and Exercise Dates. At the time an Option is granted, the Administrator shall fix the period within which the Option may be exercised and shall determine any conditions that must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised. Subject to the provisions of Section 6, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the satisfaction of such conditions at any time.

(f)    Form of Consideration. The Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Consideration, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, for exercising an Option may consist entirely of:

(i)    cash;

(ii)    check acceptable to the Company;

(iii)    in the discretion of the Administrator, other Shares which meet the conditions established by the Administrator to avoid adverse accounting consequences;

(iv)    in the discretion of the Administrator, consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise or net exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with this Plan;

(v)    in the discretion of the Administrator, any combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or

(vi)    in the discretion of the Administrator, any other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares permitted by Applicable Laws.

(g)    Exercise of Option.

(i)    Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder. Any Option granted under this Plan shall be exercisable according to the terms of this Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. An Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (x) written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Award Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (y) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised (including provision for any applicable tax withholding). Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the

Award Agreement and this Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be issued in the name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the Awarded Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 15 of this Plan or the applicable Award Agreement. Exercising an Option in any manner shall decrease the number of Shares thereafter available for sale under the Option by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.

(ii)    Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider (Other Than Death or Disability). If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, other than upon the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant may exercise the vested portion of his or her Option within the time period specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event later than the expiration of the maximum term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). If the Award Agreement does not specify a time period within which the vested portion of such Option must be exercised following a Participant ceasing to be a Service Provider, the vested portion of such Option shall be exercisable for 3 months following his or her ceasing to be a Service Provider (other than upon the Participant’s death or Disability) (but in no event later than the expiration of the maximum term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option on the date he or she ceases to be a Service Provider (other than upon the Participant’s death or Disability), then immediately thereafter, the Participant shall immediately forfeit the unvested portion or his or her Option and the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall again be available for grant under this Plan as set forth in Section 3. Additionally, if the Participant does not exercise his or her Option as to all of the vested Shares within the applicable time period, then immediately thereafter, the Option shall automatically terminate and the Shares covered by the unexercised portion of the Option shall again be available for grant under this Plan as set forth in Section 3.

(iii)    Disability of Participant. If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of his or her Disability, the Participant may exercise the vested portion of his or her Option within the time period specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event later than the expiration of the maximum term of the Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). If the Award Agreement does not specify a time period within which the vested portion of such Option must be exercised following a Participant ceasing to be a Service Provider as a result of his or her Disability, the vested portion of such Option shall be exercisable for 12 months following the Participant ceasing to be a Service Provider as a result of his or her Disability (but in no event later than the expiration of the maximum term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option on the date he or she ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of his or her Disability, then immediately thereafter, the Participant shall immediately forfeit the unvested portion or his or her Option and the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall again be available for grant under this Plan as set forth in Section 3. Additionally, if the Participant does not exercise his or her Option as to all of the vested Shares within the applicable time period, then immediately thereafter, the Option shall automatically terminate and the Shares

covered by the unexercised portion of the Option shall again be available for grant under this Plan as set forth in Section 3.

(iv)    Death of Participant. If a Participant dies while a Service Provider, the vested portion of the Option may be exercised within the time period specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Award Agreement), by the beneficiary designated by the Participant prior to his or her death; provided that such designation must be in a form acceptable to and accepted by the Administrator. If the Participant designates his or her spouse as the beneficiary for purposes of this Section 7(g)(iv) and the Participant ceases to be married to such individual, then such beneficiary designation shall be deemed revoked and of no force or effect as of the date of the termination of such marriage. If no beneficiary has been designated by the Participant (or no proper beneficiary designation is in place), then the vested portion of the Option may be exercised, as applicable, by the personal representative of the Participant’s estate or by the persons to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. If the Award Agreement does not specify a time period within which the vested portion of such Option must be exercised following a Participant’s death, the vested portion of such Option shall be exercisable for 12 months following his or her death (but in no event later than the expiration of the maximum term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option on the date he or she ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of his or her death, then immediately thereafter, the Participant shall immediately forfeit the unvested portion or his or her Option and the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall again be available for grant under this Plan as set forth in Section 3. Additionally, if the Participant’s beneficiary, personal representative or permitted transferee does not exercise the Option as to all of the vested Shares within the applicable time period, then immediately thereafter, the Option shall automatically terminate and the Shares covered by the unexercised portion of the Option shall again be available for grant under this Plan as set forth in Section 3.

(h)    Notification of Disqualifying Disposition. Any Employee who receives an Incentive Stock Option shall be required to notify the Administrator in writing, within ten days of a Disqualifying Disposition, of such Disqualifying Disposition of any Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Incentive Stock Option.

8.    Restricted Stock.

(a)    Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of Restricted Stock to Service Providers in such amounts as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

(b)    Restricted Stock Agreement. Each Award of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the number of Shares granted, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

(c)    Removal of Restrictions. Subject to the provisions of Section 6, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the time at which any restrictions shall lapse or be removed.

(d)    Voting Rights. Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock may exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares, unless the Administrator determines otherwise.

(e)    Dividends and Other Distributions. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares. All such dividends and distributions shall be held back by the Company and shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability, vesting and forfeitability as the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid.

(f)    Return of Restricted Stock to Company. If Shares of Restricted Stock do not vest in accordance with the Plan and the Award Agreement, then such Restricted Stock shall automatically be forfeited by the Participant and shall again be available for grant under this Plan as set forth in Section 3.

9.    Stock Appreciation Rights.

(a)    Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan, a Stock Appreciation Right may be granted to a Service Provider at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine the number of Stock Appreciation Rights granted to any Service Provider. Subject to the provisions of Section 6, the Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan, including the sole discretion to accelerate exercisability at any time, provided, however, that the per Share strike price that will determine the amount of the payment the Company receives upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right shall not be less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(b)    Stock Appreciation Right Agreement. Each Stock Appreciation Right grant shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the strike price, the term, the conditions of exercise, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

(c)    Expiration of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right granted under this Plan shall expire upon the date determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, as set forth in the Award Agreement; provided, however, no Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable later than 10 years after the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rules of Sections 7(g)(i), to the extent applicable, 7(g)(ii), 7(g)(iii) and 7(g)(iv) shall also apply to Stock Appreciation Rights.

(d)    Payment of Stock Appreciation Right Amount. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, a Participant shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying:

(i)    The excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the strike price; times

(ii)    The number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised.

At the sole discretion of the Administrator, the payment upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof.

10.    Performance Units and Performance Shares.

(a)    Grant of Performance Units and Performance Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan, Performance Units and Performance Shares may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time, as shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete discretion in determining the number of Performance Units and Performance Shares granted to each Service Provider.

(b)    Value of Performance Units and Performance Shares. Each Performance Unit and Performance Share shall have an initial value established by the Administrator on or before the date of grant. Each Performance Share shall have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant.

(c)    Performance Goals and Other Terms. The Administrator shall set Performance Goals in its sole discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, shall determine the number or value of Performance Units and Performance Shares that shall be paid out to the Participant. Each award of Performance Units or Performance Shares shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the Performance Period and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator in its sole discretion shall determine. The Administrator may set Performance Goals based upon the achievement of Company‑wide, divisional, or individual goals (including solely continued service) or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

(d)    Earning of Performance Units and Performance Shares. After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Units or Performance Shares shall be entitled to receive settlement or removal of restrictions, as applicable, with respect to the number of Performance Units or Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding Performance Goals have been achieved.

(e)    Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Units and Performance Shares. Payment or removal of restrictions, as applicable, of earned Performance Units and earned Performance Shares, if any, shall be made after the expiration of the applicable Performance Period at the time determined by the Administrator. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may

pay earned Performance Units in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Performance Units, as applicable, at the close of the applicable Performance Period) or in a combination of cash and Shares.

(f)    Cancellation of Performance Units or Performance Shares. If Performance Units or Performance Shares do not vest in accordance with the Plan and the Award Agreement, then such Performance Units or Performance Shares shall automatically be forfeited, and the Shares subject to such Awards shall again be available for grant under this Plan as set forth in Section 3.

11.    Restricted Stock Units.

(a)    Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan, Restricted Stock Units may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time, as shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

(b)    Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. Each Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the number of Restricted Stock Units granted, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

(c)    Holder’s Rights as Stockholder. The holder of a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall have no rights of a stockholder with respect to the Restricted Stock Unit Award. A holder shall have no voting rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Unit Award.

(d)    Form and Timing of Payment of Restricted Stock Units. Payment of earned Restricted Stock Units shall be made upon vesting (or as soon as practicable thereafter) or on the settlement date set forth in the Award Agreement, as applicable. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay earned

Restricted Stock Units in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Restricted Stock Units) or in a combination of cash and Shares.

(e)    Cancellation of Restricted Stock Units. If Restricted Stock Units do not vest in accordance with the Plan and the Award Agreement, then such Restricted Stock Units shall automatically be forfeited, and the Shares subject to such Awards shall again be available for grant under this Plan as set forth in Section 3.

12.    Other Stock-Based Awards. Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with, other Awards granted under this Plan and/or cash awards made outside of this Plan. The Administrator shall have authority to determine the Service Providers to whom and the time or times at which Other Stock-Based Awards shall be made, the amount of such Other Stock-Based Awards, and all other conditions of the Other Stock-Based Awards, including any dividend or voting rights and whether the Award shall be paid in cash.

13.    Leaves of Absence. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Awards granted under this Plan shall be suspended during any unpaid leave of absence and shall resume on the date the Participant returns to work on a regular schedule as determined by the Company; provided, however, that no vesting credit shall be awarded for the time vesting has been suspended during such leave of absence. A Service Provider shall not cease to be an Employee in the case of (i) any leave of absence approved by the Company or (ii) transfers between locations of the Company or between the Company or any Affiliate thereof. For purposes of Incentive Stock Options, no leave of absence may exceed 90 days, unless reemployment upon expiration of such leave is guaranteed by statute or contract. If reemployment upon expiration of a leave of absence approved by the Company is not guaranteed by statute or contract, then at the end of three months following the expiration of the leave of absence, any Incentive Stock Option held by the Participant shall cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall be treated for tax purposes as a Non-Qualified Option.

14.    Non-Transferability of Awards. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, such Award shall contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.

15.    Adjustments; Change of Control.

(a)    Adjustments. In the event of any change in the outstanding Shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend or other non‑recurring dividends or distributions, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin‑off, combination, repurchase or exchange of stock, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar corporate transaction that affects the Common Stock, an adjustment shall be made, as the Administrator deems necessary or appropriate, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan. Such adjustment may include an adjustment to the number and class of Shares which may be delivered under this Plan, the number, class and price of Shares subject to outstanding Awards, the number and class of Shares issuable pursuant to Options, and the numerical limits contained in Sections 3 and 6 of this Plan. Notwithstanding the preceding, the number of Shares subject to any Award always shall be a whole number.

(b)    Change of Control.

(i)    In General. Unless otherwise provided in the Award, in connection with a Change of Control, the Board shall have the authority in its sole discretion to take any one or more of the following actions with respect to the Awards:

(1)    the Board may accelerate vesting and the time at which all Options and Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding may be exercised so that those types of Awards may be exercised in full for a limited period of time on or before a specified date fixed by the Board, after which specified date all unexercised Options and Stock Appreciation Rights and all rights of Participants thereunder shall terminate, or the Board may accelerate vesting and the time at which Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised so that those types of Awards may be exercised in full for their then remaining term;

(2)    the Board may waive, alter, and/or amend the Performance Goals and other restrictions and conditions of Awards then outstanding, with the result that the affected Awards may be deemed vested, and the period during which the Award is subject to forfeiture and/or is not exercisable or other limitations on payment in full with respect thereto shall be deemed to have expired, as of the date of the Change of Control or such other date as may be determined by the Board;

(3)    the Board may cause the acquirer to assume the Plan and the Awards or exchange the Awards for awards for the acquiror’s stock;

(4)    the Board may terminate the Plan; and

(5)    the Board may terminate and cancel all outstanding unvested or unexercised Awards as of the date of the Change of Control on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate.

Notwithstanding the above provisions of this Section 15(b), the Board shall not be required to take any action described in the preceding provisions of this Section 15(b), and any decision made by the Board, in its sole discretion, not to take some or all of the actions described in the preceding provisions of this Section 15(b) shall be final, binding and conclusive with respect to the Company and all other interested persons.

(ii)    Right to Cash-Out. The Board shall, in connection with a Change of Control, have the right to require all, but not less than all, Participants to transfer and deliver to the Company all Awards previously granted to the Participants in exchange for an amount equal to the Cash Value of the Awards. Such right shall be exercised by written notice to all affected Participants. The amount payable to each Participant by the Company pursuant to this Section 15(b)(ii) shall be in cash or by certified check paid within five (5) days following the transfer and delivery of such Award (but in no event later than fifty (50) days following the date of the Change of Control) and shall be reduced by any taxes required to be withheld. If an Award is an Option or Stock Appreciation Right and no Cash Value exists with respect thereto, then such cash-out shall be effectuated with no cash (or other) payment to the Participant holding such Award.

(c)    Company Rights Regarding Transactions. The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its

business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference shares ahead of or affecting Shares or Share rights, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

16.    Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Award shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award, or a later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be provided to each Participant within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

17.    Board and Stockholder Approval; Term of Plan. The Board approved this Plan to be effective on the Effective Date, subject to the Company’s stockholders approving this Plan not more than one year after the date of this Plan’s adoption by the Board. This Plan shall continue in effect for a term of 10 years from the Effective Date unless terminated earlier under Section 19 of this Plan. No Award shall be granted under the Plan prior to the date on which the Plan is so approved by the Company’s stockholders, unless its grant, vesting and settlement are conditioned upon the approval of the Plan by the Company’s stockholders not more than one year after the date of this Plan’s adoption by the Board. If the Plan is not approved by the Company’s stockholders not more than one year after the date of this Plan’s adoption by the Board, all Awards, if any, granted under the Plan shall be immediately and automatically cancelled and terminated without any action required by the Company, the Board or the Administrator and without any payment or consideration with respect thereto. If the Plan is timely approved by the Company’s stockholders and becomes effective, neither Awards properly granted under the Plan nor the authority of the Board or the Administrator to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue, or terminate any such Award or to waive any conditions or rights under such Award, shall terminate by reason of the expiration of the term of the Plan.

18.    Term of Awards. The term of each Award shall be for such period as may be determined by the Administrator; provided, however, that in no event shall the term of any such Award exceed a period of ten years (or such shorter terms as may be required in respect of an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code).

19.    Amendment and Termination of this Plan; Amendment of Awards.

(a)    Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate this Plan.

(b)    Stockholder Approval. The Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws.

(c)    Effect of Amendment or Termination. Except as provided in Section 15(b), no amendment, alteration, suspension, or termination of this Plan shall materially or adversely impair the rights of any Participant (other than any amendment the Board deems necessary in order to permit Awards to meet the requirements of the Code, or other Applicable Laws, or to prevent adverse tax consequences to the participants), unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company. Termination of this Plan shall not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it under this Plan with respect to Awards granted under this Plan prior to the date of termination.

(d)    Amendment of Awards. The Administrator at any time, and from time to time, may amend the terms of any one or more Awards; provided that any amendment that would adversely affect

the Participant’s rights under an outstanding Award shall not be made without the Participant’s written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an amendment shall not be treated as adversely affecting the rights of the Participant if the amendment causes an Incentive Stock Option to become a Non-Qualified Option or if the amendment is made to the minimum extent necessary to avoid the adverse tax consequences of Section 409A of the Code.

(e)    Conflict Between Plan and Award Agreements. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms of the Plan and the terms of any Award Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control.

20.    Conditions upon Issuance of Shares.

(a)    Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of the Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws.

(b)    Tax Withholding. No Shares or other remuneration shall be delivered under this Plan to any Participant or other person until the Participant or other person has made arrangements acceptable to the Administrator for the satisfaction of all applicable non-U.S., U.S.-federal, U.S.-state, and local income and employment tax withholding obligations, including, without limitation, obligations incident to the receipt of Shares. Upon exercise, vesting or settlement, as applicable, of an Award, the Company shall withhold or collect from the Participant an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations, including, but not limited to, by surrender of up to the whole number of Shares covered by the Award sufficient to satisfy the withholding obligations incident to the exercise or vesting of an Award based on the minimum supplemental rate in the applicable jurisdiction.

21.    Severability. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Plan or an Award to the contrary, if any one or more of the provisions (or any part thereof) of this Plan or any Award Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be modified so as to make it valid, legal, and enforceable, and the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions (or any part thereof) of this Plan or Award Agreement, as applicable, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

22.    Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, 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.

23.    No Rights to Awards. No eligible Service Provider or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award pursuant to this Plan, and neither the Company nor the Administrator shall be obligated to treat Participants or any other person uniformly.

24.    No Stockholder Rights. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, a Participant shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to Shares covered by an Award until the Participant becomes the record owner of the Shares.

25.    Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued and the Administrator shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down as appropriate.

26.    Governing Law. This Plan, all Award Agreements, and all related matters, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to choice of law principles that direct the application of the laws of another state.

27.    No Effect on Terms of Employment, Directorship or Consulting Relationship. This Plan shall not confer upon any Participant any right as a Service Provider, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the right of the Company or any Affiliate thereof to terminate the Participant’s service at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice.

28.    Unfunded Obligation. This Section 28 shall only apply to Awards that are not settled in Shares. Participants shall have the status of general unsecured creditors of the Company. Any amounts payable to Participants pursuant to this Plan shall be unfunded and unsecured obligations for all purposes, including, without limitation, Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. Neither the Company nor any Affiliate thereof shall be required to segregate any monies from its general funds, or to create any trusts, or establish any special accounts with respect to such obligations. The Company shall retain at all times beneficial ownership of any investments, including trust investments, which the Company may make to fulfill its payment obligations under this Plan. Any investments or the creation or maintenance of any trust for any Participant account shall not create or constitute a trust or fiduciary relationship between the Administrator, the Company or any Affiliate thereof and the Participant, or otherwise create any vested or beneficial interest in any Participant or the Participant’s creditors in any assets of the Company or any Affiliate thereof. The Participants shall have no claim against the Company or any Affiliate thereof for any changes in the value of any assets that may be invested or reinvested by the Company with respect to this Plan.

29.    Section 409A. Awards under the Plan are intended either to provide compensation that is exempt from Section 409A of the Code, or that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the Plan and all Awards shall be construed and interpreted accordingly. If and to the extent any amount of compensation under an Award is determined by the Administrator to constitute deferred compensation that is not exempt from Section 409A of the Code and that is to be paid, settled or provided by reason of a Participant’s termination of employment, then (a) such compensation shall be paid, settled or provided by reason of a Participant’s termination of employment only if that termination also constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of that term under Section 409A of the Code, and (b) if the Participant is determined by the Administrator to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of Code, all payments or provisions compensation that would otherwise be paid, settled or provided before the first day of the seventh calendar month beginning after the date the Participant’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the Participant’s date of death) shall be withheld and accumulated and paid or provided without interest on or as soon as practicable after the first day of the seventh calendar month beginning after the date the Participant’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the Participant’s date of death). Each payment or provision of compensation under an Award shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. References to termination of employment and similar concepts in the Plan and Awards Agreements shall be interpreted and applied in accordance with the foregoing provisions. In the case of any Award intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code, if the time of distribution or settlement thereof is not otherwise specified in this Plan or Award Agreement or other governing document, the distribution or settlement shall be made no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such Award vested or the risk of forfeiture with respect thereto lapsed.
