(iii) For any reference to Fair Market Value in the Plan used to establish the price at which the Company shall sell Ordinary Shares to a Participant under the terms and conditions of a Share Award (such as a Share Award of Options, Restricted Share Purchase Rights or Share Appreciation Rights), the date as of which this definition shall be applied shall be the grant date of such Share Award.

VI. OPTION PROVISIONS.

Each Option shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. All Options shall be separately designated Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Share Options at the time of grant.

Subject to the provisions of Section 5.2 of the Plan regarding Ten Percent Shareholders, the exercise price of each Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option on the date the Option is granted.

6.3 Exercise Price of a Nonstatutory Share Option.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Nonstatutory Share Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code.

6.4 Consideration. The purchase price of Ordinary Shares acquired pursuant to an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations, either (i) in cash or by check at the time the Option is exercised or (ii) at the discretion of the Board at the time of the grant of the Option (or subsequently in the case of a Nonstatutory Share Option): (1) by delivery to the Company of other Shares, (2) according to a deferred payment or other similar arrangement with the

Optionholder, including use of a promissory note, (3) pursuant to a “same day sale” program, or (4) by some combination of the foregoing. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Option Agreement, the purchase price of Ordinary Shares acquired pursuant to an Option that is paid by delivery to the Company of other Shares acquired, directly or indirectly from the Company, shall be paid only by Shares that have been held for more than six (6) months (or such longer or shorter period of time required to avoid a charge to earnings for financial accounting purposes).

In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, interest shall be compounded at least annually and shall be charged at the market rate of interest and contain such other terms and conditions necessary to avoid a charge to earnings for financial accounting purposes as a result of the use of such deferred payment arrangement.

An Incentive Stock Option shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if provided in the Option Agreement, the Optionholder may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

6.6 Transferability of a Nonstatutory Share Option. A Nonstatutory Share Option shall be transferable to the extent provided in the Option Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if provided in the Option Agreement, the Optionholder may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

6.7 Vesting Generally. Options granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time and upon such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Board. The vesting provisions of individual Options may vary.

If, after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified in the Option Agreement, the Option shall terminate.

6.9 Extension of Termination Date. An Optionholder’s Option Agreement may also provide that if the exercise of the Option following the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service (other than upon the Optionholder’s death or Disability) would be prohibited at any time

solely because the issuance of Shares would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act or other applicable securities law, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of the term of the Option set forth in the Option Agreement or (ii) the expiration of a period of three (3) months after the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service during which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such registration requirements or other applicable securities law.

6.10 Disability of Optionholder. In the event that an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder’s Disability, the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of termination), but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date twelve (12) months following such termination (or such longer or shorter period specified in the Option Agreement) or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

6.11 Death of Optionholder. In the event (i) an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder’s death or (ii) the Optionholder dies within the period (if any) specified in the Option Agreement after the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service for a reason other than death, then the Option may be exercised (to the extent the Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of death) by the Optionholder’s estate, by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance or by a person designated to exercise the Option upon the Optionholder’s death pursuant to Section 6.5 or 6.6 of the Plan, but only within the period ending on the earlier of (1) the date twelve (12) months following the date of death (or such longer or shorter period specified in the Option Agreement) or (2) the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after death, the Option is not exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

6.12 Early Exercise. The Option Agreement may, but need not, include a provision whereby the Optionholder may elect at any time before the Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates to exercise the Option as to any part or all of the Shares subject to the Option prior to the full vesting of the Option. Any unvested Shares so purchased may be subject to a repurchase option in favor of the Company or to any other restriction the Board determines to be appropriate.

In addition to any other Share Awards that Eligible Directors may be granted on a discretionary basis under the Plan, each Eligible Director of the Company shall be automatically granted without the necessity of action by the Board, the following Share Award grants:

7.1 Initial Share Award Grant.

(i) Form of Initial Share Award. On the date that a Director commences service on the Board and satisfies the definition of an Eligible Director, an initial grant of Nonstatutory Share Options and/or Full-Value Share Awards shall automatically be made to that Eligible Director

(collectively, the “Initial Grant”). The existing independent members of the Board shall determine which portion of each Initial Grant will be granted in the form of a Nonstatutory Share Option, if any, and which portion of each Initial Grant will be granted in the form of a Full-Value Share Award, if any.

(ii) Number of Shares Subject to Initial Share Award Grant. Subject to the provisions of Section 14 of the Plan, the number of Shares covered by the Initial Grant shall be determined by the existing independent members of the Board, and shall in no event exceed one hundred thousand (100,000) Shares (“Initial Grant Limit”); provided that (a) the number of Shares subject to that portion, if any, of the Initial Grant awarded in the form of a Nonstatutory Share Option shall be counted against the Initial Grant Limit on a one-for-one basis and (b) the number of Shares subject to that portion, if any, of the Initial Grant awarded in the form of a Full-Value Share Award shall be counted against the Initial Grant Limit as three Shares for every one Share subject to such Full-Value Share Award.

(iii) Other Terms. The exercise price of any Nonstatutory Share Options granted as part of an Initial Grant shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the option on the date the option is granted. The maximum term of any Nonstatutory Share Options granted as part of an Initial Grant shall be seven (7) years. Nonstatutory Share Options and/or Full-Value Share Awards granted as part of an Initial Grant shall generally vest and become exercisable over a period of four (4) years in equal annual installments provided that the Director remains in Continuous Service during that period. In all other respects, Share Awards granted pursuant to an Initial Grant shall contain in substance the same terms and conditions either as set forth in Section 6 with respect to Options, or as set forth in Section 8 with respect to Full-Value Share Awards, as applicable. If at the time a Director commences service on the Board, the Director does not satisfy the definition of an Eligible Director, such Director shall not be entitled to an Initial Grant at any time, even if such Director subsequently becomes an Eligible Director.

7.2 Annual Share Award Grant.

(i) Form of Annual Share Award. An annual grant of Nonstatutory Share Options and/or Full-Value Share Awards (collectively, the “Annual Grant”) shall automatically be made to each Director who (1) is re-elected to the Board, (2) is an Eligible Director on the relevant grant date, and (3) has served as a Director for a period of at least six (6) months. The existing independent members of the Board shall determine which portion of each Annual Grant will be granted in the form of a Nonstatutory Share Option, if any, and which portion of each Annual Grant will be granted in the form of a Full-Value Share Award, if any.

(ii) Number of Shares Subject to Annual Share Award Grant. Subject to the provisions of Section 14 of the Plan, the number of Shares covered by the Annual Grant shall be determined by the existing independent members of the Board, and shall in no event exceed twenty five thousand (25,000) Shares (“Annual Grant Limit”); provided that (a) the number of Shares subject to that portion, if any, of the Annual Grant awarded in the form of a Nonstatutory Share Option shall be counted against the Annual Grant Limit on a one-for-one basis and (b) the number of Shares subject to that portion, if any, of the Annual Grant awarded in the form of a Full-Value Share

Award shall be counted against the Annual Grant Limit as three Shares for every one Share subject to such Full-Value Share Award.

(iii) Other Terms. The exercise price of any Nonstatutory Share Options granted as part of an Annual Grant shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the option on the date the option is granted. The maximum term of any Nonstatutory Share Options granted as part of an Annual Grant shall be seven (7) years. Nonstatutory Share Options and/or Full-Value Share Awards granted as part of an Annual Grant shall generally vest and become exercisable over a period of four (4) years in equal annual installments provided that the Director remains in Continuous Service during that period. In all other respects, Share Awards granted pursuant to an Annual Grant shall contain in substance the same terms and conditions either as set forth in Section 6 with respect to Options, or as set forth in Section 8 with respect to Full-Value Share Awards, as applicable. If at the time a Director commences service on the Board, the Director does not satisfy the definition of an Eligible Director, such Director shall not be entitled to an Annual Grant at any time, even if such Director subsequently becomes an Eligible Director.

VIII. PROVISIONS OF SHARE AWARDS OTHER THAN OPTIONS.

8.1 Restricted Share Bonus Awards. Each Restricted Share Bonus agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. Restricted Share Bonuses shall be paid by the Company in Ordinary Shares. Should Shares be issued pursuant to a Restricted Share Bonus award in circumstances where they are not otherwise fully paid up, the Board may require the Participant to pay the aggregate Nominal Value of the Shares on the basis that such Shares underlying the Restricted Share Bonus award shall then be allotted as fully paid to the Participant. The terms and conditions of Restricted Share Bonus agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate Restricted Share Bonus agreements need not be identical, but each Restricted Share Bonus agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:

(i) Vesting. Vesting shall generally be based on the Participant’s Continuous Service. Shares awarded under the Restricted Share Bonus agreement shall be subject to a share reacquisition right in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board.

(ii) Termination of Participant’s Continuous Service. In the event a Participant’s Continuous Service terminates, the Company shall reacquire any or all of the Shares held by the Participant that have not vested as of the date of termination under the terms of the Restricted Share Bonus agreement.

(iii) Transferability. Rights to acquire Shares under the Restricted Share Bonus agreement shall be transferable by the Participant only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the Restricted Share Bonus agreement, as the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long

as Ordinary Shares awarded under the Restricted Share Bonus agreement remain subject to the terms of the Restricted Share Bonus agreement.

8.2 Restricted Share Purchase Awards. Each Restricted Share Purchase agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. The terms and conditions of the Restricted Share Purchase agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate Restricted Share Purchase agreements need not be identical, but each Restricted Share Purchase agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:

(i) Purchase Price. The purchase price under each Restricted Share Purchase agreement shall be such amount as the Board shall determine and designate in such Restricted Share Purchase agreement. The purchase price shall not be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date such award is made or at the time the purchase is consummated.

(ii) Consideration. The purchase price of the Shares acquired pursuant to the Restricted Share Purchase agreement shall be paid either: (A) in cash or by check at the time of purchase; (B) at the discretion of the Board, according to a deferred payment or other similar arrangement with the Participant, including use of a promissory note; or (C) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board in its discretion.

(iii) Vesting. The Board shall determine the criteria under which Shares under the Restricted Share Purchase agreement may vest; the criteria may or may not include performance criteria or Continuous Service. Shares acquired under the Restricted Share Purchase agreement may, but need not, be subject to a share repurchase option in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board.

(iv) Termination of Participant’s Continuous Service. In the event a Participant’s Continuous Service terminates, the Company may repurchase any or all of the Shares held by the Participant that have not vested as of the date of termination under the terms of the Restricted Share Purchase agreement.

(v) Transferability. Rights to acquire Shares under the Restricted Share Purchase agreement shall be transferable by the Participant only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the Restricted Share Purchase agreement, as the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long as Shares awarded under the Restricted Share Purchase agreement remain subject to the terms of the Restricted Share Purchase agreement.

8.3 Share Appreciation Rights. Two types of Share Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) shall be authorized for issuance under the Plan: (1) stand-alone SARs and (2) stapled SARs.

(i) Stand-Alone SARs. The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and redeemability of stand-alone SARs:

(A) The stand-alone SAR shall cover a specified number of underlying Shares and shall be redeemable upon such terms and conditions as the Board may establish. Upon redemption of the stand-alone SAR, the holder shall be entitled to receive a distribution from the Company in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (on the redemption date) of the Shares underlying the redeemed right over (ii) the aggregate base price in effect for those Shares.

(B) The number of Shares underlying each stand-alone SAR and the base price in effect for those Shares shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion at the time the stand-alone SAR is granted. In no event, however, may the base price per Share be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value per underlying Share on the grant date.

(C) The distribution with respect to any redeemed stand-alone SAR may be made in Shares valued at Fair Market Value on the redemption date, in cash, or partly in Shares and partly in cash, as the Board shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate.

(ii) Stapled SARs. The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and redemption of stapled SARs:

(A) Stapled SARs may only be granted concurrently with an Option to acquire the same number of Shares as the number of such Shares underlying the stapled SARs.

(B) Stapled SARs shall be redeemable upon such terms and conditions as the Board may establish and shall grant a holder the right to elect among (i) the exercise of the concurrently granted Option for Shares, whereupon the number of Shares subject to the stapled SARs shall be reduced by an equivalent number, (ii) the redemption of such stapled SARs in exchange for a distribution from the Company in an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value (on the redemption date) of the number of vested Shares which the holder redeems over the aggregate base price for such vested Shares, whereupon the number of Shares subject to the concurrently granted Option shall be reduced by any equivalent number, or (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii).

(C) The distribution to which the holder of stapled SARs shall become entitled under this Section 8 upon the redemption of stapled SARs as described in Section 8.3(ii)(B) above may be made in Shares valued at Fair Market Value on the redemption date, in cash, or partly in Shares and partly in cash, as the Board shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate.

8.4 Phantom Share Units. The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and redeemability of Phantom Share Units:

(i) Phantom Share Unit awards shall be redeemable by the Participant to the Company upon such terms and conditions as the Board may establish. The value of a single Phantom Share Unit shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share, unless the Board otherwise provides in the terms of the Share Award Agreement.

(ii) The distribution with respect to any exercised Phantom Share Unit award may be made in Shares valued at Fair Market Value on the redemption date, in cash, or partly in Shares and partly in cash, as the Board shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate. Should Shares be issued pursuant to a Phantom Share Unit award in circumstances where they are not otherwise fully paid up, the Board may require the Participant to pay the aggregate Nominal Value of the Shares on the basis that such Shares underlying the Phantom Share Unit award shall then be allotted as fully paid to the Participant.

8.5 Restricted Share Units. The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and redeemability of Restricted Share Units:

A Restricted Share Unit is the right to receive the value of one (1) Ordinary Share at the time the Restricted Share Unit vests. Should Shares be issued pursuant to a Restricted Share Unit award in circumstances where they are not otherwise fully paid up, the Board may require the Participant to pay the aggregate Nominal Value of the Shares on the basis that such Shares underlying the Restricted Share Unit award shall then be allotted as fully paid to the Participant.

To the extent permitted by the Committee in the terms of his or her Share Award Agreement, a Participant may elect to defer receipt of the value of the Shares otherwise deliverable upon the vesting of an award of Restricted Share Units, so long as such deferral election complies with applicable law, including to the extent applicable, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). An election to defer such delivery shall be irrevocable and shall be made in writing on a form acceptable to the Company. The election form shall be filed prior to the vesting date of such Restricted Share Units in a manner determined by the Board. When the Participant vests in such Restricted Share Units, the Participant will be credited with a number of Restricted Share Units equal to the number of Shares for which delivery is deferred. Restricted Share Units may be paid by the Company by delivery of Shares, in cash, or a combination thereof, as the Board shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate, in accordance with the timing and manner of payment elected by the Participant on his or her election form, or if no deferral election is made, as soon as administratively practicable following the vesting of the Restricted Share Unit.

Each Restricted Share Unit agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. The terms and conditions of Restricted Share Unit agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate Restricted Share Unit agreements need not be identical, but each Restricted Share Unit agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:

(i) Vesting. Vesting shall generally be based on the Participant’s Continuous Service. Shares awarded under the Restricted Share Unit agreement shall be subject to a Share reacquisition right in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board.

(ii) Termination of Participant’s Continuous Service. In the event a Participant’s Continuous Service terminates, the Company shall reacquire any or all of the Shares held by the

Participant that have not vested as of the date of termination under the terms of the Restricted Share Unit agreement.

(iii) Transferability. Rights to acquire the value of Shares under the Restricted Share Unit agreement shall be transferable by the Participant only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the Restricted Share Unit agreement, as the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long as any Ordinary Shares awarded under the Restricted Share Unit agreement remain subject to the terms of the Restricted Share Unit agreement.

8.6 Performance Share Bonus Awards. Each Performance Share Bonus agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. Performance Share Bonuses shall be paid by the Company in Ordinary Shares. Should Shares be issued pursuant to a Performance Share Bonus award in circumstances where they are not otherwise fully paid up, the Board may require the Participant to pay the aggregate Nominal Value of the Shares on the basis that such Shares underlying the Performance Share Bonus award shall then be allotted as fully paid to the Participant. The terms and conditions of Performance Share Bonus agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate Performance Share Bonus agreements need not be identical, but each Performance Share Bonus agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:

(i) Vesting. Vesting shall be based on the achievement of certain performance criteria, whether financial, transactional or otherwise, as determined by the Board. Vesting shall be subject to the Performance Share Bonus agreement. Upon failure to meet performance criteria, Shares awarded under the Performance Share Bonus agreement shall be subject to a share reacquisition right in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board.

(iii) Transferability. Rights to acquire Shares under the Performance Share Bonus agreement shall be transferable by the Participant only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the Performance Share Bonus agreement, as the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long as Ordinary Shares awarded under the Performance Share Bonus agreement remain subject to the terms of the Performance Share Bonus agreement.

(iv) Discretionary Adjustments and Limits. Subject to the limits imposed under Section 162(m) of the Code for Share Awards that are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation,” notwithstanding the satisfaction of any performance goals, the number of Shares granted, issued, retainable and/or vested under a Performance Share Bonus may, to the extent specified in the Share Award Agreement, be reduced, but not increased, by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee shall determine

8.7 Performance Share Units. The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and redeemability of Performance Share Units:

A Performance Share Unit is the right to receive the value of one (1) Ordinary Share at the time the Performance Share Unit vests. Should Shares be issued pursuant to a Performance Share Unit award in circumstances where they are not otherwise fully paid up, the Board may require the Participant to pay the aggregate Nominal Value of the Shares on the basis that such Shares underlying the Performance Share Unit award shall then be allotted as fully paid to the Participant.

To the extent permitted by the Committee in the terms of his or her Share Award Agreement, a Participant may elect to defer receipt of the value of Shares otherwise deliverable upon the vesting of an award of Performance Share Units, so long as such deferral election complies with applicable law. An election to defer such delivery shall be irrevocable and shall be made in writing on a form acceptable to the Company. The election form shall be filed prior to the vesting date of such Performance Share Units in a manner determined by the Board. When the Participant vests in such Performance Share Units, the Participant will be credited with a number of Performance Share Units equal to the number of Shares for which delivery is deferred. Performance Share Units may be paid by the Company by delivery of Shares, in cash, or a combination thereof, as the Board shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate, in accordance with the timing and manner of payment elected by the Participant on his or her election form, or if no deferral election is made, as soon as administratively practicable following the vesting of the Performance Share Unit.

Each Performance Share Unit agreement shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate. The terms and conditions of Performance Share Unit agreements may change from time to time, and the terms and conditions of separate Performance Share Unit agreements need not be identical, but each Performance Share Unit agreement shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the agreement or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:

(i) Vesting. Vesting shall be based on the achievement of certain performance criteria, whether financial, transactional or otherwise, as determined by the Board. Vesting shall be subject to the Performance Share Unit agreement. Upon failure to meet performance criteria, Shares awarded under the Performance Share Unit agreement shall be subject to a Share reacquisition right in favor of the Company in accordance with a vesting schedule to be determined by the Board.

(iii) Transferability. Rights to acquire the value of Shares under the Performance Share Unit agreement shall be transferable by the Participant only upon such terms and conditions as are set forth in the Performance Share Unit agreement, as the Board shall determine in its discretion, so long as Ordinary Shares awarded under the Performance Share Unit agreement remain subject to the terms of the Performance Share Unit agreement.

(iv) Discretionary Adjustments and Limits. Subject to the limits imposed under Section 162(m) of the Code for Share Awards that are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation,” notwithstanding the satisfaction of any performance goals, the number of Shares granted, issued, retainable and/or vested under a Performance Share Unit may, to the extent specified in the Share Award Agreement, be reduced, but not increased, by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee shall determine.

IX. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

9.1 Availability of Shares. During the terms of the Share Awards, the Company shall keep available at all times the number of Ordinary Shares required to satisfy such Share Awards.

9.2 Securities Law Compliance. The Company shall seek to obtain from each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to grant Share Awards and to issue and sell Ordinary Shares upon exercise, redemption or satisfaction of the Share Awards; provided, however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act the Plan, any Share Award or any Ordinary Shares issued or issuable pursuant to any such Share Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Ordinary Shares under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell Ordinary Shares related to such Share Awards unless and until such authority is obtained.

X. QUALIFYING PERFORMANCE-BASED COMPENSATION

10.1 General. The Committee may establish performance criteria and the level of achievement versus such criteria that shall determine the number of Shares to be granted, retained, vested, issued or issuable under or in settlement of or the amount payable pursuant to a Share Award (including a, Restricted Share Bonus, Restricted Share Purchase Right, Restricted Share Unit, Performance Share Bonus or Performance Share Unit award), which criteria may be based on Qualifying Performance Criteria or other standards of financial performance and/or personal performance evaluations. In addition, the Committee may specify that a Share Award or a portion of a Share Award is intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, provided that the performance criteria for such Award or portion of a Share Award that is intended by the Committee to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code shall be a measure based on one or more Qualifying Performance Criteria selected by the Committee and specified at the time the Award is granted, or within the time prescribed by Section 162(m) and shall otherwise be in compliance with Section 162(m). The Committee shall certify the extent to which any Qualifying Performance Criteria has been satisfied, and the amount payable as a result thereof, prior to payment, settlement or vesting of any Award that is intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding satisfaction of any performance goals, the number of Shares issued under or the amount paid under an award may, to the extent specified in the Share Award Agreement, be reduced, but not increased, by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine.

10.2 Adjustments. To the extent consistent with Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee (a) shall appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under a Qualifying Performance Criteria to eliminate the effects of charges for restructurings, discontinued operations, extraordinary items and all items of gain, loss or expense determined to be extraordinary or unusual in nature or related to the disposal of a segment of a business or related to a change in accounting principle all as determined in accordance with standards established by opinion No. 30 of the Accounting Principles Board (APA Opinion No. 30) or other applicable or successor accounting provisions, as well as the cumulative effect of accounting changes, in each case as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or identified in the Company’s financial statements or notes to the financial statements, and (b) may appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under a Qualifying Performance Criteria to exclude any of the following events that occurs during a performance period: (i) asset write-downs, (ii) litigation, claims, judgments or settlements, (iii) the effect of changes in tax law or other such laws or provisions affecting reported results, (iv) accruals for reorganization and restructuring programs and (v) accruals of any amounts for payment under this Plan or any other compensation arrangement maintained by the Company.

XI. USE OF PROCEEDS FROM SHARES.

Proceeds from the sale of Ordinary Shares pursuant to Share Awards shall constitute general funds of the Company.

XII. CANCELLATION AND RE-GRANT OF OPTIONS.

12.1 The Board shall have the authority to effect, at any time and from time to time, (i) the repricing of any outstanding Options under the Plan and/or (ii) with the consent of the affected Optionholders, the cancellation of any outstanding Options under the Plan and the grant in substitution therefor of new Options under the Plan covering the same or different number of Shares, but having an exercise price per Share not less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value (one hundred percent (100%) of Fair Market Value in the case of an Incentive Stock Option or, in the case of a Ten Percent Shareholder (as described in Section 5.2 of the Plan), not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value) per Share on the new grant date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may grant an Option with an exercise price lower than that set forth above if such Option is granted as part of a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code applies. Prior to the implementation of any such repricing or cancellation of one or more outstanding Options, the Board shall obtain the approval of the shareholders of the Company to the extent required by any New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq or other securities exchange listing requirements, or applicable law.

12.2 Shares subject to an Option canceled under this Section 12 shall continue to be counted against the maximum award of Options permitted to be granted pursuant to Section 5.3 of the Plan. The repricing of an Option under this Section 12, resulting in a reduction of the exercise price, shall be deemed to be a cancellation of the original Option and the grant of a substitute Option; in the event of such repricing, both the original and the substituted Options shall be counted against the maximum awards of Options permitted to be granted pursuant to Section 5.3 of the Plan.

The provisions of this Section 12.2 shall be applicable only to the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code.

XIII. MISCELLANEOUS.

13.1 Acceleration of Exercisability and Vesting. The Board (or Committee, if so authorized by the Board) shall have the power to accelerate exercisability and/or vesting when it deems fit, such as upon a Change of Control. The Board or Committee shall have the power to accelerate the time at which a Share Award may first be exercised or the time during which a Share Award or any part thereof will vest in accordance with the Plan, notwithstanding the provisions in the Award Agreement stating the time at which it may first be exercised or the time during which it will vest.

13.2 Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any Shares subject to a Share Award except to the extent that the Company has issued the Shares relating to such Share Award.

13.3 No Employment or other Service Rights. Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed or Share Award granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Participant any right to continue to serve the Company or an Affiliate in the capacity in effect at the time the Share Award was granted or shall affect the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate (i) the employment of an Employee with or without notice and with or without cause, (ii) the service of a Consultant pursuant to the terms of such Consultant’s agreement with the Company or an Affiliate or (iii) the service of a Director pursuant to the Bylaws of the Company, and any applicable provisions of the corporate law of the state or other jurisdiction in which the Company is domiciled, as the case may be.

13.4 Incentive Stock Option $100,000 Limitation. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of the Ordinary Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any Optionholder during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its Affiliates) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), the Options or portions thereof which exceed such limit (according to the order in which they were granted) shall be treated as Nonstatutory Share Options.

13.5 Investment Assurances. The Company may require a Participant, as a condition of exercising or redeeming a Share Award or acquiring Shares under any Share Award, (i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the Participant’s knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who is knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business matters and that he or she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser representative, the merits and risks of acquiring the Shares; (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that the Participant is acquiring the Shares subject to the Share Award for the Participant’s own account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the Shares; and (iii) to give such other written assurances as the Company may determine are reasonable in order to comply with applicable law. The foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such

requirements, shall be inoperative if (1) the issuance of the Shares under the Share Award has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (2) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities laws, and in either case otherwise complies with applicable law. The Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place legends on Share certificates issued under the Plan as such counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to comply with applicable laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting the transfer of the Shares.

13.6 Withholding Obligations. To the extent provided by the terms of a Share Award Agreement, the Participant may satisfy any federal, state, local, or foreign tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or redemption of a Share Award or the acquisition, vesting, distribution or transfer of Ordinary Shares under a Share Award by any of the following means (in addition to the Company’s right to withhold from any compensation paid to the Participant by the Company) or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold Shares from the Shares otherwise issuable to the Participant, provided, however, that no Shares are withheld with a value exceeding the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered Shares. The Participant may also satisfy such tax withholding obligation by any other means set forth in the applicable Share Award Agreement.

XIV. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN SHARES.

14.1 Capitalization Adjustments. If any change is made in the Ordinary Shares subject to the Plan, or subject to any Share Award, without the receipt of consideration by the Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reincorporation, share dividend, spinoff, dividend in property other than cash, share split, liquidating dividend, extraordinary dividends or distributions, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan may be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of securities subject to the Plan or to grants of Full-Value Share Awards pursuant to Section 4.1 above, the maximum number of securities subject to award to any person pursuant to Sections 5.3 or 5.4 above, and the number of securities subject to the option grants to Eligible Directors under Section 7 of the Plan, and the outstanding Share Awards may be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and number of securities and price per share of the securities subject to such outstanding Share Awards. The Board may make such adjustments in its sole discretion, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a transaction “without receipt of consideration” by the Company.)

An adjustment under this provision may have the effect of reducing the price at which Ordinary Shares may be acquired to less than their Nominal Value (the “Shortfall”), but only if and to the extent that the Board shall be authorized to capitalize from the reserves of the Company a sum equal to the Shortfall and to apply that sum in paying up that amount on the Ordinary Shares.

14.2 Adjustments Upon a Change of Control.

(i) In the event of a Change of Control as defined in 2.4(i) through 2.4(iv), such as an asset sale, merger, or change in ownership of voting power, then any surviving entity or acquiring entity shall assume or continue any Share Awards outstanding under the Plan or shall substitute similar share awards (including an award to acquire substantially the same consideration paid to the shareholders in the transaction by which the Change of Control occurs) for those outstanding under the Plan. In the event any surviving entity or acquiring entity refuses to assume or continue such Share Awards or to substitute similar share awards for those outstanding under the Plan, then with respect to Share Awards held by Participants whose Continuous Service has not terminated, the Board in its sole discretion and without liability to any person may (1) provide for the payment of a cash amount in exchange for the cancellation of a Share Award equal to the product of (x) the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value per Share at such time over the exercise or redemption price, if any, times (y) the total number of Shares then subject to such Share Award, (2) continue the Share Awards, or (3) notify Participants holding an Option, Share Appreciation Right, or Phantom Share Unit that they must exercise or redeem any portion of such Share Award (including, at the discretion of the Board, any unvested portion of such Share Award) at or prior to the closing, of the transaction by which the Change of Control occurs and that the Share Awards shall terminate if not so exercised or redeemed at or prior to the closing of the transaction by which the Change of Control occurs. With respect to any other Share Awards outstanding under the Plan, such Share Awards shall terminate if not exercised or redeemed prior to the closing of the transaction by which the Change of Control occurs. The Board shall not be obligated to treat all Share Awards, even those that are of the same type, in the same manner.

(ii) In the event of a Change of Control as defined in 2.4(v), such as a dissolution of the Company, all outstanding Share Awards shall terminate immediately prior to such event.

XV. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND SHARE AWARDS.

15.1 Amendment of Plan. The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the Plan. However, except as provided in Section 14 of the Plan relating to adjustments upon changes in the Ordinary Shares, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the shareholders of the Company to the extent shareholder approval is necessary to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, any New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq or other securities exchange listing requirements, or other applicable law or regulation.

15.2 Shareholder Approval.
