Non-Statutory Stock Option. This option is not intended to qualify as an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code. 3. Exercise and Termination of Option. (a) Vesting Schedule and Expiration. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, this option vests and becomes exercisable in installments as set forth in the Grant (each, an "INSTALLMENT") and expires on the earlier of: (1) the seventh anniversary of the date on which the option was granted (the "EXPIRATION DATE"); or (2) the termination of the option under any other provision of this Agreement. (b) Exercise Procedure; No Fractional Shares. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, you must follow the instructions posted on the Plan Administrator's web site in order to exercise this option. If you have questions about the exercise process, then you can contact the Plan Administrator at the phone number posted on the Plan Administrator's web site. You may purchase fewer than the full number of shares covered by this option, but you may not exercise this option for any fractional share. (c) Continuous Relationship with the Company Required. Except as otherwise specified in this Section 3, you may not exercise this option unless you are at the time of exercise, and have been at all times since the date of grant of this option, an employee, officer, director, consultant or advisor of the Company (an "ELIGIBLE OPTIONEE"). (d) Termination of Relationship with the Company. If you cease to be an Eligible Optionee for any reason, then, except as specified in paragraphs (e), (f) and (g) below, this option will terminate on the earlier of the Expiration Date or three months after you cease to be an Eligible Optionee. However, except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, no further Installments will vest after the date on which you cease to be an Eligible Optionee, and this option will be exercisable only to the extent that you were entitled to exercise the option on the date of such cessation. (e) Exercise Period and Acceleration Upon Death. If you die before the Expiration Date while you are an Eligible Optionee, or if you die within three months after you cease to be an Eligible Optionee (other than as the result of the Company's termination of your relationship with it for "cause" as specified in paragraph (g) below), then: (1) Upon the date of your death, the vesting of this option will fully accelerate, and this option will be exercisable as to the full number of shares covered by the option (to the extent not already exercised); and (2) The person to whom this option is transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution may exercise this option until the first anniversary of the date of your death (whether or not the exercise occurs before the Expiration Date). Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term "YOU," as used in this Agreement, includes your estate or any person who acquires the right to exercise this option by bequest, inheritance or otherwise by reason of your death. (f) Exercise Period Upon Disability. If you become disabled (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) before the Expiration Date while you are an Eligible Optionee, then this option will be exercisable until the first anniversary of the date of your disability (whether or not the exercise occurs before the Expiration Date). However, except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, no further Installments will vest after the date of your disability, and this option will be exercisable only to the extent that this option was exercisable by you on the date of your disability. (g) Discharge for Cause. If the Company discharges you for Cause, then this option will terminate immediately upon the effective date of your discharge. "CAUSE" means your willful misconduct or willful failure to perform your responsibilities in the best interests of the Company (including, without limitation, your breach of any provision of any employment, consulting, advisory, nondisclosure, non-competition or other similar agreement between you and the Company), as determined by the Company, which determination is conclusive. You will be considered to have been discharged for cause if the Company determines, within 30 days after your discharge, that discharge for cause was warranted. 2 4. Payment of Purchase Price.

The Company will not accept fractional shares of Common Stock in payment to exercise this option.

Upon payment of the full purchase price for the number of vested and exercisable shares purchased, the Company shall promptly deliver the purchased shares to you.

In such a case, you may not exercise this option, in whole or in part, unless the listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval, disclosure or satisfaction has been effected or obtained on terms acceptable to the Company's Board of Directors. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to require the Company to apply for, effect or obtain such listing, registration, qualification or disclosure, or to satisfy such other condition. 6.
