Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Agreement, the Option shall vest and become exercisable as to portions of the Shares pursuant to the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Grant, provided that Optionee has continuously provided services to the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, at all times during the relevant month.
2.2 Vesting of Options. Shares that are vested pursuant to the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice of Grant are Vested Shares. Shares that are not vested pursuant to the schedule set forth in the Notice of Grant are Unvested Shares.

4. Manner of Exercise.
4.1 Stock Option Exercise Agreement. To exercise the Option, Optionee (or in the case of exercise after Optionees death, Optionees executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must deliver to the Company an executed stock option exercise agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, or in such other form as may be approved by the Company from time to time (the Exercise Agreement), which shall set forth, inter alia, Optionees election to exercise the Option, the number of shares being purchased, any restrictions imposed on the Shares and any representations, warranties and agreements regarding Optionees investment intent and access to information as may be required by the Company to comply with applicable securities laws. If someone other than Optionee exercises the Option, then such person must submit documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company that such person has the right to exercise the Option.

shares); or (2) were obtained by Optionee in the open public market; and (3) are clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests;
(c) | by waiver of compensation due or accrued to Optionee for services rendered; | ||
(d) | provided that a public market for the Companys stock exists: (1) through a same day sale commitment from Optionee and a broker-dealer that is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (an NASD Dealer) whereby Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise this 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; or (2) through a margin commitment from Optionee and an NASD Dealer whereby Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise this 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; or | ||
(e) | by any combination of the foregoing. |
4.4 Tax Withholding. Prior to the issuance of the Shares upon exercise of the Option, Optionee must pay or provide for any applicable federal or state withholding obligations of the Company. If the Committee permits, Optionee may provide for payment of withholding taxes upon exercise of the Option by requesting that the Company retain Shares with a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld. In such case, the Company shall issue the net number of Shares to the Optionee by deducting the Shares retained from the Shares issuable upon exercise.
4.5 Issuance of Shares. Provided that the Exercise Agreement and payment are in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Company, the Company shall issue the Shares registered in the name of Optionee, Optionees authorized assignee, or Optionees legal representative, and shall deliver certificates representing the Shares with the appropriate legends affixed thereto.
5. Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO Shares. To the extent the Option is an ISO, if Optionee sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the later of (a) the date two (2) years after the date of grant, and (b) the date one (1) year after transfer of such Shares to Optionee upon exercise of the Option, then Optionee shall immediately notify the Company in writing of such disposition.

7. Nontransferability of Option. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 11 of the Plan, the Option may not be transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by Optionee. The terms of the Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, successors and assigns of Optionee.
8. Tax Consequences. Set forth below is a brief summary as of the date the Board adopted the Plan of some of the federal tax consequences of exercise of the Option and disposition of the Shares. THIS SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISOR BEFORE EXERCISING THE OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES.
8.1 Exercise of Incentive Stock Option. To the extent the Option qualifies as an ISO, there will be no regular federal income tax liability upon the exercise of the Option, although the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price will be treated as a tax preference item for federal income tax purposes and may subject the Optionee to the alternative minimum tax in the year of exercise.
8.2 Exercise of Nonqualified Stock Option. To the extent the Option does not qualify as an ISO, there may be a regular federal income tax liability upon the exercise of the Option. Optionee will be treated as having received compensation income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price. The Company may be required to withhold from Optionees compensation or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this compensation income at the time of exercise.
8.3 Disposition of Shares. The following tax consequences may apply upon disposition of the Shares.
a. Incentive Stock Options. If the Shares are held for more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer of the Shares pursuant to the exercise of an ISO and are disposed of more than two (2) years after the date of grant, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will be treated as capital gain for federal income tax purposes. If Shares purchased under an ISO are disposed of within the applicable one (1) year or two (2) year period, any gain realized on such disposition will be treated as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income rates) to the extent of the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price.
b. Nonqualified Stock Options. If the Shares are held for more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer of the Shares pursuant to the exercise of an NQSO, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will be treated as long-term capital gain.
c. Withholding. The Company may be required to withhold from Participants compensation or collect from the Participant and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of the compensation income.

Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan.
2. Vesting; Exercise Period.
2.1 Vesting of Shares. The Option shall be exercisable as it vests, unless otherwise indicated in the Notice of Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Agreement, the Option shall vest and become exercisable as to portions of the Shares pursuant to the vesting schedule specified in the Notice of Grant, provided that Optionee has continuously provided services to the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, at all times during the relevant month. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, however, if there is a Sale of the Company and Participants employment is terminated by the Company or its successor without Cause in connection with the Sale of the Company, then upon such termination the Option will become vested as to an additional number of Unvested Shares equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Shares that were Unvested Shares at the closing of the Sale of the Company.
For purposes of this vesting acceleration provisions, Cause means (i) willfully engaging in gross misconduct that is materially and demonstrably injurious to the Company; (ii) willful act or acts of dishonesty undertaken by Participant and intended to result in substantial gain or personal enrichment for Participant at the expense of the Company; or (iii) willful and continued failure to substantially perform Participants duties with the Company or its successor (other than incapacity due to physical or mental illness); provided that the action or conduct described in clause (iii) above will constitute Cause only if such failure continues after the Board of Directors has provided Participant with a written demand for substantial performance setting forth in detail the specify respects in which it believes Participant has willfully and not substantially performed his duties thereof and a reasonable opportunity (to be not less than 30
days) to cure the same. For such purpose, a termination by the Company without Cause includes a termination of employment by Participant within 30 days following any of the following events: (x) the assignment of any duties to Participant inconsistent with, or reflecting a materially adverse change in, Participants position, duties or responsibilities with the Company (or any successor) without Participants concurrence; or (y) the relocation of the Companys principal executive offices, or relocating Participants principal place of business, in excess of fifty (50) miles from the Companys current executive offices located in Sunnyvale, California. For purposes of the vesting acceleration provisions of paragraph (b), the term Sale of the Company means (i) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (ii) the acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of consolidation, corporate reorganization or merger, or other transaction or series of related transactions in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting power of the Company is transferred.

3. Termination.
3.1 Termination for Any Reason Except Death, Disability or Cause. If Optionee is Terminated for any reason except Optionees death, Disability or Cause, then the Option, to the extent (and only to the extent) that it is vested in accordance with the schedule set forth in the Notice of Grant on the Termination Date, may be exercised by Optionee no later than three (3) months after the Termination Date, but in any event no later than the expiration date.
3.2 Termination Because of Death or Disability. If Optionee is Terminated because of death or Disability of Optionee (or the Optionee dies within three (3) months after Termination other than for Cause or because of Disability), then the Option, to the extent that it is vested in accordance with the schedule in the Notice of Grant on the Termination Date, may be exercised by Optionee (or Optionees legal representative or authorized assignee) no later than twelve (12) months after the Termination Date, but in any event no later than the expiration date. Any exercise after three months after the Termination Date when the Termination is for any reason other than Optionees death or disability, within the meaning of Code Section 22(e)(3), shall be deemed to be the exercise of a nonqualified stock option.
3.3 Termination for Cause. If Optionee is Terminated for Cause, the Option will expire on the Optionees date of Termination.
3.4 No Obligation to Employ. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer on Optionee any right to continue in the employ of, or other relationship with, the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, or limit in any way the right of the
Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company to terminate Optionees employment or other relationship at any time, with or without Cause.

(e) | by any combination of the foregoing. |
4.4 Tax Withholding. Prior to the issuance of the Shares upon exercise of the Option, Optionee must pay or provide for any applicable federal or state withholding obligations of the Company. If the Committee permits, Optionee may provide for payment of withholding taxes upon exercise of the Option by requesting that the Company retain Shares with a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld.
