An Option may be exercised only by the Option Holder or the Personal Representative of any Option Holder.

With respect to the exercise of part of an Option, the Board may at any time and from time to time fix a minimum or maximum number of Shares in respect of which an Option Holder may exercise part of any Option held by such Option Holder.
4.2 Company Purchase of Options
Upon the receipt by the Company, from time to time, of an Exercise Notice with respect to a Class B Option or any part thereof in accordance with Section 4.1, the Company may, notwithstanding such purported exercise, offer to purchase from the exercising Option Holder all but not less than all of the Class B Options or part thereof such Option Holder is purporting to exercise on payment by the Company of an amount (the Option Purchase Price) equal to the Fair Market Value of that portion of the Option which was purportedly exercised, which payment may be satisfied in full by the Company causing to be delivered to such exercising Option Holder such number of Lululemon Shares as have an equivalent Fair Market Value. In the event such exercising Option Holder accepts such offer, such exercising Option Holder shall be obligated to sell all Options or portions thereof which it is purportedly exercising to the Company on payment by the Company to the holder of the Option Purchase Price with respect thereto, and thereafter the Company shall have no obligation to issue Shares in connection with such purported exercise. Any such Lululemon Shares will no longer be subject to the provisions hereof with respect to which such Option is purportedly exercised, as set forth in the Exercise Notice.
4.3 Issue of Share Certificates
As soon as practicable following the receipt of the Exercise Notice, the Company shall cause to be delivered (a) to the Trustee a certificate for the Options so purchased, registered in the name of the Trustee in trust for the Holder, or (b) if the Company has exercised the Call Right, to the Option Holder a certificate for the Lululemon Shares transferred to the Holder in satisfaction of the Call Purchase Price, registered in the name of the Holder. If the number of Shares with respect to which such Option is purportedly exercised, as set forth in the Exercise Notice, is less than the number of Shares subject to the Option Certificate surrendered, the Company shall forward a new Option Certificate representing the balance of Shares available under the Option to the Option Holder concurrently with delivery of the aforesaid share certificate.
4.4 Condition of Issue
The issue of Shares by the Company pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the transfer of Lululemon Shares in satisfaction of the Call Purchase Price is subject to this Plan and compliance with the laws, rules and regulations of all regulatory bodies applicable to the issuance and distribution of such Shares. The Option Holder agrees to comply with all such laws, rules and regulations and agrees to furnish to the
-6-
Company any information, report and/or undertakings required to comply with and to fully co-operate with the Company in complying with such laws, rules and regulations.
4.5 Forfeiture of Shares
(a) | Upon the occurrence of one of the events described in Sections 3.4(a), (b) or (c) with respect to a Shareholder who has exercised some or all of his Options then the Trustee shall tender all Shares which it holds on behalf of such Shareholder to the Company for purchase and the Company shall, within 15 days of the occurrence of such event, purchase such Shares for an amount equal to an amount equal to (i) in the case of Shares (other than Forfeitable Shares) an amount equal to the Fair Market Value thereof, which payment may be satisfied in full by the Company causing to be delivered such number of Lululemon Shares as have an equivalent Fair Market Value; and (ii) in the case of Forfeitable Shares cash in an amount equal to the price paid for such Shares upon issuance thereof. | ||
(b) | The Company may, from time to time, assign its right to purchase Shares pursuant to this Section 4.5 to any other person without prior notice to the Holders. Any such purchase shall be made by such assignee upon and subject to the same conditions set forth in this Plan. | ||
(c) | Immediately following the payment of the purchase price referred to in Section 4.5(a) the Trustee shall distribute such funds or securities to the Shareholder in accordance with its holding of Shares immediately prior to such purchase. |
4.6 Voluntary Tender of Non-Forfeitable Shares for Repurchase
At any time after the Shareholder has obtained Shares on exercise of some or all of his Options, such Shareholder may by delivery of notice in writing require the Trustee to tender any such Shares which are not Forfeitable Shares to the Company for repurchase from time to time for a price equal to the Fair Market Value thereof, which purchase price may be satisfied by the Company delivering, in its sole discretion, Lululemon Shares registered in the name of such Shareholder (or otherwise at the direction of such Shareholder) with an equivalent Fair Market Value. In the event the Company agrees to repurchase such Shares, any such Lululemon Shares will no longer be subject to the provisions hereof. For greater certainty, in no event will the Company be obliged in any circumstances to repurchase any such Shares.
4.7 Transfer of Shares
Except as provided in Sections 4.2 and 4.5:
(a) | no right or interest of any Shareholder in any of the Shares purchased on his behalf under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise in any manner except by devolution by death or mental incompetence; | ||
(b) | no attempted assignment or transfer thereof shall be effective; and | ||

The Company is hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of, at such times and at such prices as it determines, in its sole discretion, such portion of the Lululemon Shares otherwise payable to such holder as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to the Company to enable it to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement, and shall notify the holder thereof and remit to such holder any unapplied balance of the net proceeds of such sale or disposition (after deducting applicable sale commissions and any other reasonable expenses relating thereto) in lieu of the Lululemon Shares so sold or disposed of. To the extent that Lululemon Shares are so sold or disposed of such withheld amounts, or shares so sold or disposed of, shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the holder of the shares in respect of which such deduction, withholding, sale or disposition was made, provided that the net proceeds of such sale or disposition are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority.
