     The Plan shall be administered in accordance with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code (but only to the extent necessary and desirable to maintain qualification of awards under the Plan under Section 162(m) of the Code) and, to the extent applicable, Rule 16b-3, by the Board or, at the Board’s sole discretion, by the Committee, which shall be appointed by the Board, and which shall serve at the pleasure of the Board.

     Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the Administrator shall have the power and authority to grant Stock Options to Eligible Recipients pursuant to the terms of the Plan. The Administrator may delegate to officers of the Company the authority to grant Stock Options under this Plan to Eligible Recipients who are not officers or directors of the Company whose transactions in the Company’s Common Stock are subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.

     Additionally, subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, the Administrator’s powers shall include, without limitation, the authority to:

     (1) select those Eligible Recipients who shall be Optionees;

     (2) determine whether and to what extent Stock Options are to be granted hereunder to Optionees including whether a Stock Option is to be an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option;

     (3) determine the number of Shares to be covered by each such Stock Option granted hereunder, the exercise price of a Stock Option and the period during which the Stock Option may be exercised;

     (4) determine other terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of each Stock Option granted hereunder;

     (5) determine whether an Optionee has ceased to be employed or retained by the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company and the effective date on which such employment terminated and whether an Optionee who is a director, consultant, independent contractor or advisor is employed or retained by the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company;

     (6) adopt, alter and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices governing the Plan as it shall from time to time deem advisable;

     (7) interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan and any award issued under the Plan (and any agreements relating thereto); and

     (8) otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan.

     All decisions and interpretations made by the Administrator pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Company and all persons having an interest in any Stock Option or any Shares purchased pursuant to a Stock Option.

Section 3. Stock Subject to Plan.

     The total number of Shares reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be 1,700,000 (after giving effect to the one-for-five stock split). Such Shares may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares. No one Optionee shall be eligible to receive more than 100,000 Shares (after giving effect to the one-for-five stock split) during any single calendar year during the term of this Plan pursuant to the grant of Stock Options hereunder. Upon shareholder approval of the Plan, (1) the Company’s 1995 Stock Option Plan (the “1995 Plan”) shall be merged and incorporated into the Plan, effective immediately prior to the 2001 annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company, (2) all outstanding options under the 1995 Plan shall be treated as outstanding under the Plan; provided however, that each outstanding option so incorporated shall be governed solely by the express terms and conditions of the 1995 Plan and all other instruments evidencing the grant of such options, and (3) all available shares for grant under the 1995 Plan as of such date shall be available for grant hereunder, and any and all shares that would otherwise be returned to the 1995 Plan by reason of expiration of its term or cancellation upon termination of employment or service shall be available again for grant hereunder as of such date of cancellation or termination. Effective immediately prior to the 2001 annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company, and subject to shareholder approval of the Plan at such meeting, the 1995 Plan shall terminate and no further option grants shall be made therefrom.

     Consistent with the provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code, as from time to time applicable, to the extent that a Stock Option expires or is otherwise terminated without being exercised, such Shares shall again be available for issuance in connection with future awards granted under the Plan. If any Shares have been pledged as collateral for indebtedness incurred by an Optionee in connection with the exercise of a Stock Option and such Shares are returned to the Company in satisfaction of such indebtedness, such Shares shall again be available for issuance in connection with future awards granted under the Plan.

     In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, combination or other change in the capital structure of the Company, as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion and subject to any required action by the Board or shareholders of the Company and compliance with applicable securities laws, a substitution or adjustment shall be made in (i) the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan and (ii) the kind, number and option price of Shares subject to outstanding Stock Options granted under the Plan; provided, however, that the number of shares subject to any award shall always be a whole number; and provided further, that the exercise price may not be decreased to below the par value, if any, for the Shares. Such other substitutions or adjustments shall be made as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. In connection with any event described in this paragraph, the Administrator may provide, in its sole discretion, for the cancellation of any outstanding awards and payment in cash or other property therefor.

Section 4. Eligibility.

     Non-Qualified Stock Options may be granted to employees, directors, consultants, officers, independent contractors and advisors (provided such consultants, independent contractors and advisors render bona fide services not in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction) of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees (including officers and directors who are also employees) of the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company.

Section 5. Stock Options.

     The Stock Options granted under the Plan may be of two types: (i) Incentive Stock Options and (ii) Non-Qualified Stock Options. The Administrator shall have the authority to grant to any Eligible Recipient Incentive Stock Options, Non-Qualified Stock Options, or both types of Stock Options. To the extent that any Stock Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, it shall constitute a separate Non-Qualified Stock Option. More than one Stock Option may be granted to the same Optionee and be outstanding concurrently hereunder.

     Any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be in such form as the Administrator may from time to time approve, and the provisions of Stock Option awards need not be the same with respect to each Optionee. Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable:

      (1) Form of Stock Option Grant. Optionees who are granted Stock Options shall enter into a stock option agreement with the Company, in such form (which need not be the same for each Optionee) as the Administrator shall from time to time approve, which stock option agreement shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan.

      (2) Date of Grant. The date of grant of a Stock Option shall be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination to grant such Stock Option unless otherwise specified by the Administrator. The stock option agreement representing the Stock Option will be delivered to the Optionee with a copy of this Plan within a reasonable time after the granting of the Stock Option.

      (3) Exercise Price. The option price per Share purchasable under a Stock Option shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, on the date the Stock Option is granted; provided that (i) the exercise price of a Non-Qualified Stock Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the Stock Option is granted; (ii) the exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the Stock Option is granted; and (iii) if an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder, the exercise price of such Incentive Stock Option, to the extent required at the time of grant by the Code, shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted.

      (4) Exercise Period. Subject to this Section 5 and Section 10 herein, Stock Options shall be exercisable within the times or upon the events determined by the Administrator as set forth in the respective stock option agreement; provided, however, that no Stock Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Stock Option is granted and provided, further, that no Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder shall be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date the Stock Option is granted; provided further, that so long as the Stock Options and Common Stock issued under the Plan must be qualified under Section 25111 of the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, as amended, Stock Options granted subsequent to October 13, 2005 shall include the right to exercise the Stock Options at the rate of at least 20% per year over the five years following the grant date of such Stock Options.

      (5) Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year (under this Plan or under any other incentive stock option plan of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary) shall not exceed $100,000. If the Fair Market Value of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, the Stock Options for the first $100,000 worth of Shares to become exercisable in such year shall be Incentive Stock Options and the Stock Options for the amount in excess of $100,000 that become exercisable in that year shall be Non-Qualified Stock Options. In the event that the Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder are amended after the effective date of this Plan to provide for a different limit on the Fair Market Value of Shares permitted to be subject to Incentive Stock Options, such different limit shall be incorporated herein and shall apply to any Stock Options granted after the effective date of such amendment.

      (6) Stock Options Non-Transferable. Stock Options granted under this Plan, and any interest therein, shall not be transferable or assignable by an Optionee, and may not be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process, otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionee only by such Optionee; provided, however, that Non-Qualified Stock Options may be transferred to such family members, trusts and charitable institutions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall approve at the time of the grant of such Stock Option.

      (7) Assumed Stock Options. In the event the Company assumes a stock option granted by another company unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the terms and conditions of such option shall remain unchanged (except the exercise price and the number and nature of shares issuable upon exercise, which will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code). In the event the Company elects to grant a new stock option rather than assuming an existing option, such new option may be granted with a similarly adjusted exercise price.

     (8) Exercise of Stock Options.

      (a) Notice. Stock Options may be exercised only by delivery (including electronic delivery or other delivery method approved by the Administrator) to the Company of a written stock option exercise agreement in a form approved by the Administrator (which need not be the same for each Optionee), stating the number of Shares being purchased, the

restrictions imposed on the Shares, if any, and such representations and agreements regarding the Optionee’s investment intent and access to information, if any, as may be required by the Company to comply with applicable securities laws, together with payment in full of the exercise price for the number of Shares being purchased.

      (b) Payment. Payment for the Shares may be made in cash (by check) or, where approved by the Administrator in its sole discretion at the time of grant and where permitted by law: (i) by cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the Optionee; (ii) by surrender of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the applicable exercise price of the Stock Options that have been owned by the Optionee for more than six (6) months (and which have been paid for within the meaning of SEC Rule 144 and, if such Shares were purchased from the Company by use of a promissory note, such note has been fully paid with respect to such shares), or were obtained by the Optionee in the open public market; (iii) by waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Optionee for services rendered; (iv) provided that a public market for the Company’s stock exists, through a “same day sale” commitment from the Optionee and a broker-dealer that is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (an “NASD Dealer”) whereby the Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise the Stock Option and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased to pay for the exercise price and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the exercise price directly to the Company; (v) provided that a public market for the Company’s stock exists, through a “margin” commitment from the Optionee and an NASD Dealer whereby the Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise the Stock Option and to pledge the Shares so purchased to the NASD Dealer in a margin account as security for a loan from the NASD Dealer in the amount of the exercise price, and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the exercise price directly to the Company; (vi) by any combination of the foregoing; or (vii) by any other method approved by the Administrator.

      (c) Withholding Taxes. Prior to issuance of the Shares upon exercise of a Stock Option, the Optionee shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator regarding payment of, any Federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such Stock Option. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on the making of such payments or arrangements, and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Optionee.

      (d) Limitations on Exercise. The exercisability of a Stock Option shall be subject to the following:

      (i) The Administrator may specify a reasonable minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of a Stock Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent an Optionee from exercising the full number of Shares as to which the Stock Option is then exercisable.

      (ii) A Stock Option shall not be exercisable unless such exercise is in compliance with the Securities Act, all applicable state securities laws and the

requirements of any stock exchange or national market system upon which the Shares may then be listed, as they are in effect on the date of exercise. The Company shall be under no obligation to register the Shares with the SEC or to effect compliance with the registration, qualification or listing requirements of any state securities laws, stock exchange or national market system, and the Company shall have no liability for any inability or failure to do so.

      (9) Termination of Employment or Service Other Than Due to Death or Disability. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable stock option agreement, if an Optionee ceases to be employed or retained by the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company for any reason except death or Disability, the Optionee may exercise such Optionee’s Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options, to the extent that they are exercisable on the date of termination, within three (3) months after the date of termination or such other time period as may be specified in the applicable stock option agreement (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Stock Option as set forth in Section 5(4) above). To the extent an Optionee was not entitled to exercise a Stock Option at the date of termination, or if an Optionee does not exercise such Stock Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Stock Option shall terminate unless as otherwise provided in the applicable stock option agreement.

      (10) Termination of Employment or Service Due to Death or Disability. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable stock option agreement, if an Optionee’s employment or retention with the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company is terminated because of the Optionee’s death or Disability, the Optionee may exercise such Optionee’s Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options, to the extent that they are exercisable on the date of termination, by the Optionee (or the Optionee’s legal representative) within twelve (12) months after the date of termination or such other time period as may be specified in the applicable stock option agreement (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Stock Option as set forth in Section 5(4) above). To the extent an Optionee was not entitled to exercise a Stock Option at the date of termination, or if an Optionee does not exercise such Stock Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Stock Option shall terminate unless as otherwise provided in the applicable stock option agreement.

Meeting of Shareholders, each such director will be granted an additional Stock Option to purchase 3,000 Shares (after giving effect to the one-for-five stock split).

If the Optionee ceases to be a director because of death, the Optionee’s legal representative may exercise his or her Stock Options to the extent (and only to the extent) that they are exercisable on the date of termination, within twelve (12) months after the date of termination, but not after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Stock Options are granted. To the extent an Optionee or an Optionee’s legal representative was not entitled to exercise a Stock Option at the date of termination, or if an Optionee or an Optionee’s legal representative does not exercise such Stock Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein, the Stock Option shall terminate unless as otherwise provided in the applicable stock option agreement.

Section 7. Modification, Extension and Renewal of Stock Options

     The Administrator shall have the power to modify, extend or renew outstanding Stock Options and to authorize the grant of new Stock Options in substitution therefor, provided that any such action may not, without the written consent of an Optionee, impair any rights under any Stock Option previously granted except as provided in Section 3 hereof.

The Administrator shall not have the power to reduce the exercise price of outstanding Stock Options.

Section 8. Privileges of Stock Ownership

Upon written request, the Company shall provide to each Optionee a copy of the annual financial statements of the Company at such time after the close of each fiscal year of the Company as such statements are released by the Company to its common shareholders generally.

Section 9. No Obligation to Employ

     Nothing in this Plan nor any Stock Option granted under this Plan shall confer on any Optionee any right to continue in the employ of, as a director of, or other relationship with, the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company to terminate Optionee’s employment or other relationship at any time, with or without cause.

Section 10. Change in Control; Assumption of Stock Options by Successors

     In the event of a Change in Control, any or all outstanding Stock Options shall, unless otherwise provided in an applicable stock option agreement or other agreement, accelerate and become exercisable in full upon the occurrence of the Change in Control and shall expire immediately following the occurrence of the Change in Control. To the extent required by applicable law, the aggregate Fair Market Value of Incentive Stock Options which first become exercisable in the year of such Change in Control cannot exceed $100,000, and any remaining accelerated options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options.

Upon the Effective Date, the Board may grant Stock Options pursuant to this Plan; provided that, in the event that shareholder approval is not obtained within the time period provided herein, all Stock Options granted hereunder shall terminate. No Stock Option that is issued as a result of any increase in the number of shares authorized to be issued under this Plan shall be exercised prior to the time such increase has been approved by the shareholders of the Company and all such Stock Options granted pursuant to such increase shall similarly terminate if such shareholder approval is not obtained.

Section 12. Term of Plan

     Stock Options may be granted pursuant to this Plan from time to time within a period of ten (10) years from the Effective Date.
