2004 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLANAs Adopted by the Board on July 20, 2004
and as amended thereafter
1. Purpose. The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentives to attract, retain and motivate eligible persons whose present and potential contributions are important to the success of the Company, its Parent, Subsidiaries and Affiliates, by offering them an opportunity to participate in the Company153s future performance through awards of Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock Units, and Restricted Stock Awards. Capitalized terms not defined in the text are defined in Section 25. 2. Shares Subject to the Plan. 2.1 Number of Shares Available. Subject to Sections 2.2 and 18, the total number of Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to this Plan will be one hundred and sixty-three million (163,000,000) Shares plus up to forty-five million one hundred thousand (45,100,000) shares subject to awards granted under the Company153s 1996 Equity Incentive Plan that cancel, forfeit (e.g., upon the Participant153s Termination) or otherwise expire by their terms on or following the adoption of this Plan. Any award other than an Option or a SAR shall reduce the number of Shares available for issuance under this Plan by two Shares for every Share issued. Subject to Sections 2.2 and 18, Shares that: (a) are subject to issuance upon exercise of an Option but cease to be subject to such Option for any reason other than exercise of such Option; (b) are subject to an Award granted hereunder but are forfeited or are repurchased by the Company at the original issue price; or (c) are subject to an Award that otherwise terminates without Shares being issued will again be available for grant and issuance in connection with future Awards under this Plan. The following Shares may not again be made available for future grant and issuance as Awards under the Plan: (i) Shares that are withheld to pay the exercise or purchase price of an Award or to satisfy any tax withholding obligations in connection with an Award, (ii) Shares not issued or delivered as a result of the net settlement of an outstanding Option or SAR or (iii) shares of the Company153s Common Stock repurchased on the open market with the proceeds of an Option exercise price. At all times the Company shall reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Shares as shall be required to satisfy the requirements of all outstanding Awards granted under this Plan. 2.2 Adjustment of Shares. In the event that the number of outstanding Shares is changed by a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company without consideration or there is a change in the corporate structure (including, without limitation, a spin-off), then (a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan, (b) the Exercise Prices of and number of Shares subject to outstanding Options, (c) the number of Shares that may be granted pursuant to Section 3 below, and (d) the Purchase Price and number of Shares subject to other outstanding Awards, including Restricted Stock Awards, will be proportionately adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the Company and compliance with applicable securities laws; provided, however, that fractions of a Share will not be issued but will be rounded down to the nearest whole Share, and may be replaced by a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value of such fraction of a Share, as determined by the Committee. 3. Eligibility. ISOs (as defined in Section 5 below) may be granted only to employees (including officers and directors who are also employees) of the Company or of a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. All other Awards may be granted to employees, officers, directors, consultants, independent contractors and advisors of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company; provided such consultants, contractors and advisors render bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction. No person will be eligible to receive more than 2,000,000 Shares in any calendar year under this Plan, pursuant to the grant of Awards hereunder, of which no more than 400,000 Shares shall be covered by Awards of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units, other than new employees of the Company or of a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company (including new employees who are also officers and directors of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company), who are eligible to receive up to a maximum of 3,000,000 Shares in the calendar year in which they commence their employment, of which no more than 600,000 Shares shall be covered by Awards of
Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. For purposes of these limits only, each Restricted Stock Unit settled in Shares (but not those settled in cash), shall be deemed to cover one Share. A person may be granted more than one Award under this Plan. 4. Administration. 4.1 Committee Authority. This Plan will be administered by the Committee or by the Board acting as the Committee. Subject to the general purposes, terms and conditions of this Plan, and to the direction of the Board, the Committee will have full power to implement and carry out this Plan. Without limitation, the Committee will have the authority to: (a) construe and interpret this Plan, any Award Agreement and any other agreement or document executed pursuant to this Plan; (b) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to this Plan or any Award; (c) select persons to receive Awards; (d) determine the form and terms of Awards; (e) determine the number of Shares or other consideration subject to Awards; (f) determine whether Awards will be granted singly, in combination with, in tandem with, in replacement of, or as alternatives to, other Awards under this Plan or any other incentive or compensation plan of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company; (g) grant waivers of Plan or Award conditions; (h) determine the vesting, exercisability and payment of Awards; (i) correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement; (j) amend any Award Agreements executed in connection with this Plan; (k) determine whether an Award has been earned; and (l) make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan. 4.2 Committee Discretion. Any determination made by the Committee with respect to any Award will be made in its sole discretion at the time of grant of the Award or, unless in contravention of any express term of this Plan or Award, at any later time, and such determination will be final and binding on the Company and on all persons having an interest in any Award under this Plan. To the extent permitted by applicable laws, the Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant an Award under this Plan to Participants who are not Insiders of the Company. 4.3 Section 162(m), Rule 16b-3 and Stock Exchange Requirements. If two or more members of the Board are Outside Directors, the Committee will be comprised of at least two (2) members of the Board, at least two (2) of whom are Outside Directors. To the extent desirable to qualify transactions hereunder as exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act ("Rule 16b-3"), Awards to officers and directors shall be made by the entire Board or a Committee of two or more "non-employee directors" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3. In addition, the Plan will be administered in a manner that complies with any applicable Nasdaq Global Select Market or stock exchange listing requirements.
2
5. Options. The Committee may grant Options to eligible persons and will determine whether such Options will be Incentive Stock Options within the meaning of the Code ("ISOs") or Nonqualified Stock Options ("NQSOs"), the number of Shares subject to the Option, the Exercise Price of the Option (subject to Section 5.4 below), the circumstances upon and the period during which the Option may be exercised, and all other terms and conditions of the Option, subject to the following: 5.1 Form of Option Grant. Each Option granted under this Plan will be evidenced by an Award Agreement which will expressly identify the Option as an ISO or an NQSO ("Stock Option Agreement"), and will be in such form and contain such provisions (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee may from time to time approve, and which will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. To the extent that any Option designated as an ISO in the Award Agreement fails to qualify as such under applicable law, it shall be treated instead as a NQSO. 5.2 Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option will be the date on which the Committee makes the determination to grant such Option, unless a later date is otherwise specified by the Committee at the time it acts to approve the grant. The Stock Option Agreement and a copy of this Plan will be delivered to the Participant within a reasonable time after the granting of the Option. 5.3 Exercise Period. Options will be exercisable within the times or upon the events determined by the Committee as set forth in the Stock Option Agreement governing such Option; provided, however, that no Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted; and provided further that no ISO granted to a person who directly or by attribution owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company ("Ten Percent Stockholder") will be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date the ISO is granted. The Committee also may provide for the exercise of Options to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise (including, without limitation, the attainment during a Performance Period of performance goals based on Performance Factors), in such number of Shares or percentage of Shares as the Committee determines. 5.4 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an Option will be determined by the Committee when the Option is granted and may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant; provided that the Exercise Price of any ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder will not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant. Payment for the Shares purchased may be made in accordance with Section 10 of this Plan. 5.5 Method of Exercise. Options may be exercised only by delivery to the Company of a written or electronic notice or agreement of stock option exercise (the "Exercise Agreement") in a form approved by the Committee (which need not be the same for each Participant), stating the number of Shares being purchased, the restrictions imposed on the Shares purchased under such Exercise Agreement, if any, and such representations and agreements regarding Participant153s investment intent and access to information and other matters, if any, as may be required or desirable 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 and all applicable withholding taxes. 5.6 Termination. Notwithstanding the exercise periods set forth in the Stock Option Agreement, exercise of an Option will always be subject to the following: (a) If the Participant is Terminated for any reason except death or Disability, then the Participant may exercise such Participant153s Options only to the extent that such Options are vested and exercisable upon the Termination Date no later than three (3) months after the Termination Date (or such shorter or longer time period not exceeding five (5) years as may be determined by the Committee, with any exercise beyond three (3) months after the Termination Date deemed to be an NQSO), but in any event, no later than the expiration date of the Options. (b) If the Participant is Terminated because of Participant153s death or Disability (or the Participant dies within three (3) months after a Termination other than because of Participant153s death or disability), then Participant153s Options may be exercised only to the extent that such Options are vested and
3
exercisable by Participant on the Termination Date and must be exercised by Participant (or Participant153s legal representative or authorized assignee) no later than twelve (12) months after the Termination Date (or such shorter or longer time period not exceeding five (5) years as may be determined by the Committee, with any such exercise beyond (a) three (3) months after the Termination Date when the Termination is for any reason other than the Participant153s death or Disability, or (b) twelve (12) months after the Termination Date when the Termination is for Participant153s death or Disability, deemed to be an NQSO), but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Options. 5.7 Limitations on Exercise. The Committee may specify a reasonable minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of an Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent Participant from exercising the Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then exercisable. 5.8 Limitations on ISOs. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant) of Shares with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under this Plan or under any other incentive stock option plan of the Company or any Affiliate, Parent or Subsidiary of the Company) will not exceed $100,000. If the Fair Market Value of Shares on the date of grant with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, then the Options for the first $100,000 worth of Shares to become exercisable in such calendar year will be ISOs and the Options for the amount in excess of $100,000 that become exercisable in that calendar year will be NQSOs. 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 ISOs, such different limit will be automatically incorporated herein and will apply to any Options granted after the effective date of such amendment. 5.9 Modification, Extension or Renewal. The Committee may modify, extend or renew outstanding Options and authorize the grant of new Options in substitution therefor, provided that (a) any such action may not, without the written consent of a Participant, impair any of such Participant153s rights under any Option previously granted; (b) any outstanding ISO that is modified, extended, renewed or otherwise altered will be treated in accordance with Section 424(h) of the Code; and (c) notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in the Plan, the Company is subject to Section 21.2 below with respect to any proposal to reprice outstanding Options. 5.10 No Disqualification. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, no term of this Plan relating to ISOs will be interpreted, amended or altered, nor will any discretion or authority granted under this Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify this Plan under Section 422 of the Code or, without the consent of the Participant affected, to disqualify any ISO under Section 422 of the Code. 6. Non-Employee Director Equity Awards. 6.1 Types of Awards. All Awards other than ISOs may be granted to non-employee directors under this Plan. Awards granted pursuant to this Section 6 may be automatically made pursuant to a policy adopted by the Board (as such policy may be amended from time to time by the Board) or made from time to time as determined in the discretion of the Board, or, if the authority to grant Awards to non-employee directors has been delegated by the Board, the Committee. 6.2 Eligibility. Awards granted pursuant to this Section 6 shall be granted only to non-employee directors. Any non-employee director, including without limitation any non-employee director who is appointed as a member to the Board, will be eligible to receive an Award under this Section 6. 6.3 Vesting, Exercisability and Settlement. Except as set forth in Section 18, Awards granted pursuant to Section 6 shall vest, become exercisable and be settled as determined by the Board or, if the authority to make such determinations has been delegated by the Board, the Committee. With respect to Options and SARs, the exercise price of such Award granted to non-employee directors shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares at the time such Award is granted.

7. Restricted Stock Awards. A Restricted Stock Award is an offer by the Company to issue to an eligible person Shares that are subject to restrictions. The Committee will determine to whom an offer will be made, the number of Shares the person may be issued or purchase, the Purchase Price (if any), the restrictions to which the Shares will be subject, and all other terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Award, subject to the following: 7.1 Restricted Stock Agreement. All purchases under a Restricted Stock Award will be evidenced by a written agreement (the "Restricted Stock Agreement"), which will be in substantially a form (which need not be the same for each Participant) that the Committee shall from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. A Participant can accept a Restricted Stock Award only by signing and delivering to the Company the Restricted Stock Agreement, and full payment of the Purchase Price (if any) and all applicable withholding taxes, at such time and on such terms as required by the Committee. If the Participant does not accept the Restricted Stock Award at such time and on such terms as required by the Committee, then the offer of the Restricted Stock Award will terminate, unless the Committee determines otherwise. 7.2 Purchase Price. The Purchase Price (if any) for a Restricted Stock Award will be determined by the Committee, and may be less than Fair Market Value on the date the Restricted Stock Award is granted. Payment of the Purchase Price must be made in accordance with Section 10 of this Plan and as permitted in the Restricted Stock Agreement, and in accordance with any procedures established by the Company. 7.3 Terms of Restricted Stock Awards. Restricted Stock Awards will be subject to all restrictions, if any, that the Committee may impose. These restrictions may be based on completion of a specified period of service with the Company and/or upon completion of the performance goals as set out in advance in the Restricted Stock Agreement, which shall be in such form and contain such provisions (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee shall from time to time approve, and which will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. Prior to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, the Committee shall: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the Restricted Stock Award; (b) select performance criteria, including if the Award is intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" under Code Section 162(m) from among the Performance Factors, to be used to measure performance goals, if any; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the Participant. For Restricted Stock Awards intended to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code, the performance goals will be determined at a time when the achievement of the performance goals remains substantially uncertain and shall otherwise be administered in a manner that complies with the requirements under that statute. Performance Periods may overlap and a Participant may participate simultaneously with respect to Restricted Stock Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and having different performance goals and other criteria. 7.4 Termination During Vesting or Performance Period. Restricted Stock Awards shall cease to vest immediately if a Participant is Terminated during the vesting period or Performance Period applicable to the Award for any reason, unless the Committee determines otherwise, and any unvested Shares subject to such Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to the Company153s right to repurchase such Shares or otherwise to any forfeiture condition applicable to the Award, as described in Section 14 of this Plan, if and as set forth in the applicable Restricted Stock Agreement. 8. Restricted Stock Units. A Restricted Stock Unit (or RSU) is an award covering a number of Shares that may be settled in cash, or by issuance of those Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock). A RSU may be awarded for past services already rendered to the Company, or any Affiliate, Parent or Subsidiary of the Company pursuant to an Award Agreement (the "RSU Agreement") that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the following: 8.1 Terms of RSUs. RSUs may vary from Participant to Participant and between groups of Participants, and may be based upon the achievement of the Company, Affiliate, Parent or Subsidiary and/or individual performance factors or upon such other criteria as the Committee may determine. The Committee will determine all terms of each RSU including, without limitation: the number of Shares subject to each RSU, the time or times during which each RSU shall vest and the RSU be settled, the consideration to be distributed on such settlement, and the effect on each RSU of its holder153s Termination. A RSU may be awarded upon satisfaction of such performance goals as are set out in advance in the Participant153s individual Award Agreement (the
5
"Performance RSU Agreement") that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. If the RSU is being earned upon the satisfaction of performance goals pursuant to a Performance RSU Agreement, then the Committee will: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for each RSU; (b) select performance criteria, including if the Award is intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" under Code Section 162(m) from among the Performance Factors, to be used to measure performance goals, if any; and (c) determine the number of Shares deemed subject to the RSU. For RSUs intended to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code, the performance goals will be determined at a time when the achievement of the performance goals remains substantially uncertain and shall otherwise be administered in a manner that complies with the requirements under that statute. Prior to settlement of any RSU earned upon the satisfaction of performance goals pursuant to a Performance RSU Agreement, the Committee shall determine the extent to which such RSU has been earned. Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to RSUs that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance goals and other criteria. The number of Shares may be fixed or may vary in accordance with such performance goals and criteria as may be determined by the Committee. The Committee may adjust the performance goals applicable to the RSUs to take into account changes in law and accounting or tax rules and to make such adjustments as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships. 8.2 Form and Timing of Exercise. The portion of a RSU being settled may be paid currently or on a deferred basis with such interest or dividend equivalent, if any, as the Committee may determine. Payment may be made in the form of cash or whole Shares or a combination thereof, either in a lump sum payment or in installments, all as the Committee will determine. 9. Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right (or SAR) is an award that may be exercised for cash or Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock), having a value equal to the value determined by multiplying the difference between the Fair Market Value on the date of settlement over the Exercise Price and the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is being settled. A SAR may be awarded for past services already rendered to the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company pursuant to an Award Agreement (the "SAR Agreement") that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the following: 9.1 Terms of SARs. SARs may vary from Participant to Participant and between groups of Participants, and may be based upon the achievement of the Company, Parent or Subsidiary and/or individual performance factors or upon such other criteria as the Committee may determine. The Committee will determine all terms of each SAR including, without limitation: the number of Shares deemed subject to each SAR, the time or times during which each SAR may be settled, the consideration to be distributed on settlement, and the effect on each SAR of its holder153s Termination. The Exercise Price of a SAR will be determined by the Committee when the SAR is granted and may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant. A SAR may be awarded upon satisfaction of such performance goals as are set out in advance in the Participant153s individual Award Agreement (the "Performance SAR Agreement") that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. If the SAR is being earned upon the satisfaction of performance goals pursuant to a Performance SAR Agreement, then the Committee will: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for each SAR; (b) select performance criteria, including if the Award is intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" under Code Section 162(m) from among the Performance Factors, to be used to measure performance goals, if any; and (c) determine the number of Shares deemed subject to the SAR. Prior to exercise of any SAR earned upon the satisfaction of performance goals pursuant to a Performance SAR Agreement, the Committee shall determine the extent to which such SAR has been earned. Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to SARs that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance goals and other criteria. The number of Shares may be fixed or may vary in accordance with such performance goals and criteria as may be determined by the Committee. The Committee may adjust the performance goals applicable to the SARs to take into account changes in law and accounting or tax rules and to make such adjustments as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in the Plan, the Company is subject to Section 21.2 below with respect to any proposal to
6
reprice outstanding SARs. The term of a SAR shall be ten (10) years from the date the SAR is awarded or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. 9.2 Form and Timing of Settlement. The portion of a SAR being settled may be paid currently or on a deferred basis with such interest or dividend equivalent, if any, as the Committee may determine. Payment may be made in the form of cash or whole Shares or a combination thereof, either in a lump sum payment or in installments, all as the Committee will determine. 10. Payment for Share Purchases. Payment for Shares purchased pursuant to this Plan may be made in cash, by check or by wire transfer or, where expressly approved for the Participant by the Committee and where permitted by law: (a) by cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the Participant; (b) by surrender of shares that either: (1) have been owned by Participant for more than six (6) months and 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 (2) were obtained by Participant in the public market; (c) cashless "net exercise" arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of Shares issued upon exercise by the largest whole number of Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price; provided that the Company shall accept a cash or other payment from the Participant to the extent of any remaining balance of the exercise price not satisfied by such reduction in the number of whole Shares to be issued; (d) by waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Participant for services rendered; (e) with respect only to purchases upon exercise of an Option, and provided that a public market for the Company153s stock exists, through a "same day sale" commitment from the Participant and a broker-dealer that is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (a "FINRA Dealer") whereby the Participant irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased to pay for the Exercise Price and any applicable withholding obligations, and whereby the FINRA Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; (f) by such other consideration and method of payment as permitted by the Committee and applicable law; or (g) by any combination of the foregoing. 11. Withholding Taxes. 11.1 Withholding Generally. It shall be a condition to the grant of an Award under this Plan that the Participant satisfy any tax withholding or similar obligations applicable to the Award that may be legally imposed upon the Participant. Whenever Awards are to be granted or Shares are to be issued in satisfaction of Awards granted under this Plan, the Participant shall make such arrangements as the Company may require to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local, or foreign withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery of any Award Agreement or certificate or certificates for Award Shares. Whenever, under this Plan, payments in satisfaction of Awards are to be made in cash, such payment will be net of an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local withholding tax requirements. 11.2 Stock Withholding. When, under applicable tax laws, a Participant incurs tax liability in connection with the grant, exercise or vesting of any Award that is subject to tax withholding and the Participant is obligated to pay the Company the amount required to be withheld, the Committee may allow the Participant to satisfy the minimum withholding tax obligation by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld,
7
determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined (the "Tax Date"). All elections by a Participant to have Shares withheld for this purpose will be made in writing in a form and during a period acceptable to the Committee. 12. Privileges of Stock Ownership; Voting and Dividends. Except to the extent that the Committee grants an RSU that entitles the Participant to credit for dividends paid on Award Shares prior to the date such Shares are issued to the Participant (as reflected in the RSU Agreement), no Participant will have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any Shares until the Shares are issued to the Participant. After Shares are issued to the Participant, the Participant will be a stockholder and have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote and receive all dividends or other distributions made or paid with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such Shares are restricted stock, then any new, additional or different securities the Participant may become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by virtue of a stock dividend, stock split or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the restricted stock; provided, further, that the Participant will have no right to retain such stock dividends or stock distributions with respect to Shares that are repurchased at the Participant153s original Purchase Price or otherwise forfeited to the Company. 13. Transferability. Awards granted under this Plan, and any interest therein, will not be transferable or assignable by Participant, and may not be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process, otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or as consistent with the specific Plan and Award Agreement provisions relating thereto. All Awards shall be exercisable: (i) during the Participant153s lifetime, only by (A) the Participant, or (B) the Participant153s guardian or legal representative; and (ii) after Participant153s death, by the legal representative of the Participant153s heirs or legatees. 14. Restrictions on Shares. At the discretion of the Committee, the Company may reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) in the Award Agreement a right to repurchase a portion of or all Shares that are not vested held by a Participant following such Participant153s Termination at any time specified after the Participant153s Termination Date, for cash and/or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness, at the Participant153s original Exercise Price or Purchase Price, as the case may be. Alternatively, at the discretion of the Committee, Award Shares issued to the Participant for which the Participant did not pay any Exercise or Purchase Price may be forfeited to the Company on such terms and conditions as may be specified in the Award Agreement. All certificates for Shares or other securities delivered under this Plan will be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends and other restrictions as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable, including restrictions under any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may be listed or quoted. 15. Escrow; Pledge of Shares. To enforce any restrictions on a Participant153s Shares, the Committee may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Committee, appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificates. 16. Exchange and Buyout of Awards. The Committee may, at any time or from time to time, authorize the Company, with the consent of the respective Participants, to issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any or all outstanding Awards. This Section shall not be construed to defeat the requirements of Section 21.2 with respect to any proposed repricing of Options or SARs. 17. Securities Law and Other Regulatory Compliance. An Award will not be effective unless such Award is in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations of any governmental body, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, as they are in effect on the date of grant of the Award and also on the date of exercise or other issuance. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no obligation, and no liability for failure, to issue Shares or deliver certificates for Shares under this Plan prior to: (a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and/or (b) completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable. The Company will be under no
8
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 automated quotation system, and the Company will have no liability for any inability or failure to do so. 18. Corporate Transactions. 18.1 Assumption or Replacement of Awards by Successor. In the event of (a) a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (b) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation (other than a merger or consolidation with a wholly-owned subsidiary, a reincorporation of the Company in a different jurisdiction, or other transaction in which there is no substantial change in the stockholders of the Company or their relative stock holdings and the Awards granted under this Plan are assumed, converted or replaced by the successor corporation, which assumption will be binding on all Participants), (c) a merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but after which the stockholders of the Company (other than any stockholder which merges (or which owns or controls another corporation which merges) with the Company in such merger) cease to own their shares or other equity interests in the Company, (d) the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (e) any other transaction which qualifies as a "corporate transaction" under Section 424(a) of the Code wherein the stockholders of the Company give up all of their equity interest in the Company (except for the acquisition, sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the outstanding shares of the Company from or by the stockholders of the Company), any or all outstanding Awards may be assumed, converted or replaced by the successor corporation (if any), which assumption, conversion or replacement will be binding on all Participants, or the successor corporation may substitute equivalent awards or provide substantially similar consideration to Participants as was provided to stockholders (after taking into account the existing provisions of the Awards); provided that[, unless otherwise determined by the Board,] all Awards granted pursuant to Section 6 shall accelerate and be fully vested upon such merger, consolidation or corporate transaction. In the event such successor corporation (if any) fails to assume or substitute Awards pursuant to a transaction described in this Subsection 18.1, all such Awards will expire on such transaction at such time and on such conditions as the Board shall determine. 18.2 Other Treatment of Awards. Subject to any greater rights granted to Participants under the foregoing provisions of this Section 18, in the event of the occurrence of any transaction described in Section 18.1, any outstanding Awards will be treated as provided in the applicable agreement or plan of merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation, sale of assets or other "corporate transaction." 18.3 Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another company, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other company or otherwise, by either; (a) granting an Award under this Plan in substitution of such other company153s award; or (b) assuming such award as if it had been granted under this Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Award granted under this Plan. Such substitution or assumption will be permissible if the holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be granted an Award under this Plan if the other company had applied the rules of this Plan to such grant. In the event the Company assumes an award granted by another company, the terms and conditions of such award will remain unchanged (except that the exercise price and the number and nature of Shares issuable upon exercise of any such option will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code). In the event the Company elects to grant a new Option rather than assuming an existing option, such new Option may be granted with a similarly adjusted Exercise Price. 19. No Obligation to Employ; Accelerated Expiration of Award for Harmful Act. Nothing in this Plan or any Award granted under this Plan will confer or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any 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 Participant153s employment or other relationship at any time, with or without cause. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Participant is Terminated because of such Participant153s actual or alleged commitment of a criminal act or an intentional tort and the Company (or an employee of the Company) is the victim or object of such criminal act or intentional tort or such criminal act or intentional tort results, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, in liability, loss, damage or injury to the Company, then, at the Company153s election, Participant153s Awards shall not be exercisable or settleable and shall terminate and expire upon the Participant153s Termination Date. Termination by the Company based on a Participant153s alleged commitment of a criminal act or an intentional tort shall be based on a reasonable investigation of the facts and a determination by the Company that a
9
preponderance of the evidence discovered in such investigation indicates that such Participant is guilty of such criminal act or intentional tort. 20. Compliance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that the Committee determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Code Section 409A and unless otherwise specified in the applicable Award Agreement, the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions necessary for such Award to avoid the consequences described in Code Section 409A(a)(1), and to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law (and unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement), the Plan and the Award Agreements shall be interpreted in a manner that results in their conforming to the requirements of Code Section 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) and any Department of Treasury or Internal Revenue Service regulations or other interpretive guidance issued under Section 409A (whenever issued, the "Guidance"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan (and unless the Award Agreement provides otherwise, with specific reference to this sentence), to the extent that a Participant holding an Award that constitutes "deferred compensation" under Section 409A and the Guidance is a "specified employee" at the time of his or her "separation from service" (as each is defined under Section 409A and applicable Guidance), no distribution or payment of any amount shall be made before a date that is six (6) months following the date of such Participant153s separation from service or, if earlier, the date of the Participant153s death within such six (6) month period. 21. Certain Stockholder Approval Matters. 21.1 Plan Effectiveness; Increasing Plan Shares. This Plan became effective on July 20, 2004 (the "Effective Date"). Any amendment to this Plan increasing the number of Shares available for issuance hereunder shall be approved by the stockholders of the Company, consistent with applicable laws, within twelve (12) months before or after the effective date of such amendment ("Amendment Effective Date"). Upon the Amendment Effective Date, the Board may grant Awards covering such additional Shares pursuant to this Plan; provided, however, that: (a) no Option granted pursuant to such increase in the number of Shares subject to this Plan approved by the Board may be exercised prior to the time such increase has been approved by the stockholders of the Company; and (b) in the event that stockholder approval of any such amendment increasing the number of Shares subject to this Plan is not obtained, all Awards covering such additional Shares granted hereunder will be canceled, any Shares issued pursuant to any Award will be canceled, and any purchase of Shares hereunder will be rescinded. 21.2 Repricing Matters. Except in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Company (including without limitation any stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off or exchange of shares), the terms of outstanding Awards may not without stockholder approval be amended to reduce the exercise price of outstanding Options or SARs, or to cancel outstanding Options or SARs in exchange either for (a) cash, or (b) new Options, SARS or other Awards with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original (cancelled) Options or SARs. 22. Term of Plan. Unless earlier terminated as provided herein, this Plan will terminate on July 20, 2014. 23. Amendment or Termination of Plan. The Board may at any time terminate or amend this Plan in any respect, including without limitation amendment of Section 6 of this Plan; provided, however, that the Board will not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, amend this Plan to increase the number of shares that may be issued under this Plan, change the designation of employees or class of employees eligible for participation in this Plan, take any action in conflict with Section 21.2 above, or otherwise materially modify a provision of the Plan if such modification requires stockholder approval under the applicable rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Market. 24. Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of this Plan by the Board, the submission of this Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval, nor any provision of this Plan will be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such additional compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options and bonuses otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.
