For valuable consideration, receipt of which is acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.Purchase of Shares. The Company shall issue and sell to the Participant and the Participant shall purchase from the Company, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Company’s 2001 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), an aggregate of 450,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) of the Company at a price of $0.15 per share (the “Option Price”), purchasable as set forth in and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan.

Upon receipt of payment by the Company for the Shares, the Company shall issue to the Participant one or more certificates in the name of the Participant for that number of Shares purchased by the Participant. The Participant agrees that the Shares shall be subject to the Purchase Option set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement and the restrictions on transfer set forth in Sections 4 and 5 of this Agreement.
2.Purchase Option.
(a) Subject to sections 2(b) through 2(d) below, In the event that the Participant ceases to be employed by the Company for any reason or no reason, prior to December 31, 2005, the Company shall have the right and option (the “Purchase Option”) to purchase from the Participant, for a sum equal to the Option Price per share, any shares then subject to the Purchase Option. All of the Shares shall be subject to the Purchase Option prior to January 1, 2003. On January 1, 2003, 75,000 Shares will no longer be subject to the Purchase Option and at the end of each full month thereafter, an additional 10,416.667 of such Shares shall no longer be subject to the Purchase Option until such time as all of such Shares are no longer subject to the Purchase Option. The Shares that are subject to the Purchase Option are referred to hereon as the “Unvested Shares” and the Shares that are no longer subject to the Purchase Option are referred to hereby as the “Vested Shares.”
(b) Notwithstanding the above, in the event that the Participant’s employment is terminated:
(i) by the Company without Cause (as defined below),
(ii) by the Participant due to a material diminution in the Participant’s job responsibilities or title, or
(iii) by the Participant as a result of the Company materially breaching its obligations as provided in the Participant’s offer letter, dated February 6, 2002 (the “Offer Letter”),

(d) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Event (as hereinafter defined), the Purchase Option shall immediately lapse as to all remaining Unvested Shares, thereby rendering all Shares Vested Shares. For purposes of this subsection (d), a “Change of Control Event” shall mean:
(i) the acquisition by an individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership of any capital stock of the Company if, after such acquisition, such Person beneficially owns (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) 75% or more of either (x) the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (y) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”);provided,however, that for purposes of this subsection (i), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control Event: (A) any acquisition directly from the Company (excluding an acquisition pursuant to the exercise, conversion or exchange of any security exercisable for, convertible into or exchangeable for common stock or voting securities of the Company, unless the Person exercising, converting or exchanging such security acquired such security directly from the Company or an underwriter or agent of the Company), (B) any acquisition by any Participant benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, or (C) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a Business Combination (as defined below) which complies with clauses (x) and (y) of subsection (ii) of this definition; or
