The details of your option are as follows:
1.VESTING. Subject to the limitations contained herein, your option will vest as provided in your Grant Notice, provided that vesting will cease upon the termination of your provision of all personal services, whether as a common law employee, an independent contractor, or a director (“Continuous Service”), to the Company (including for this purpose service to an Affiliate of the Company). An “Affiliate” of the Company is any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation, whether now or hereafter existing, as those terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and (f) respectively, of the Code.
2.NUMBEROF SHARESAND EXERCISE PRICE. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to your option and your exercise price per share referenced in your Grant Notice may be adjusted from time to time for capitalization adjustments.

(a) a partial exercise of your option shall be deemed to cover first vested shares of Common Stock and then the earliest vesting installment of unvested shares of Common Stock;
(b) any shares of Common Stock so purchased from installments that have not vested as of the date of exercise shall be subject to the purchase option in favor of the Company as described in the Company’s form of Early Exercise Stock Purchase Agreement; and
(c) you shall enter into the Company’s form of Early Exercise Stock Purchase Agreement with a vesting schedule that will result in the same vesting as if no early exercise had occurred.
4.METHODOF PAYMENT. Payment of the exercise price is due in full upon exercise of all or any part of your option. You may elect to make payment of the exercise price
3
in cash or by check or in any other mannerpermitted by your Grant Notice,which may include one or more of the following:
(a) In the Company’s sole discretion at the time your option is exercised and provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is publicly traded and quoted regularly inThe Wall Street Journal,pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board that, prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.
(b) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is publicly traded and quoted regularly inThe Wall Street Journal,by delivery of already-owned shares of Common Stock either that you have held for the period required to avoid a charge to the Company’s reported earnings (generally six months) or that you did not acquire, directly or indirectly from the Company, that are owned free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests, and that are valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise. “Delivery” for these purposes, in the sole discretion of the Company at the time you exercise your option, shall include delivery to the Company of your attestation of ownership of such shares of Common Stock in a form approved by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not exercise your option by tender to the Company of Common Stock to the extent such tender would violate the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company’s stock.

You further agree to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company and/or the underwriter(s) that are consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary to give further effect

Such adjustments shall be made by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), the determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive.

In the event of: (l)a dissolution, liquidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (2) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation; (3) a reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise; (4) after the first date upon which any security of the Company is listed (or approved for listing) upon notice of issuance on any securities exchange, or designated (or approved for designation) upon notice of issuance as a national market security on an interdealer quotation system if such securities exchange or interdealer quotation system has been certified in accordance with the provisions of Section 25100(o) of the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968 (the “Listing Date”), the acquisition by any person, entity or group within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), or any comparable successor provisions (excluding any employee benefit plan, or related trust, sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company) of the beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or comparable successor rule) of securities of the
6
Company representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote in the election of directors; or (5) at the time individuals who, as of the first date on which the Company has a class of equity securities which are actively traded on any established stock exchange or a national market system (including that of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.), constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to such date, whose election or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board (other than an election or nomination of an individual whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of Directors of the Company, as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) shall be considered as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board, then: (i) any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation shall assume your option or shall substitute a similar option for your option; or (ii) if any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation refuses to assume your option or to substitute a similar option for your option, then (A) if your Continuous Service has not terminated as of immediately prior to such event, then the vesting of the Shares subject to your option shall be accelerated prior to such event and your option shall terminate to the extent not exercised after such acceleration and at or prior to such event, and (B) if your Continuous Service has terminated as of immediately prior to such event, then no acceleration of vesting shall occur and your option shall terminate to the extent not exercised prior to such event.
14.PURCHASEFOR INVESTMENT; RIGHTSOF HOLDERON SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATION. Unless the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an option granted under the Grant Notice and this Stock Option Agreement have been effectively registered under the Securities Act, the Company shall be under no obligation to issue any Shares covered by any option unless the person who exercises such option, whether such exercise is in whole or in part, shall give a written representation and undertaking to the Company which is satisfactory in form and scope to counsel for the Company and upon which, in the opinion of such counsel, the Company may reasonably rely, that he or she is acquiring the Shares issued to him or her pursuant to such exercise of the option for his or her own account as an investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of any such Shares, and that he or she will make no transfer of the same except in compliance with any rules and regulations in force at the time of such transfer under the Securities Act, or any other applicable law, and that if Shares are issued without such registration a legend to this effect may be endorsed on the securities so issued. In the event that the Company shall, nevertheless, deem it necessary or desirable to register under the Securities Act or other applicable statutes any Shares with respect to which an option shall have been exercised, or to qualify any such Shares for exemption from the Securities Act or other applicable statutes, then the Company shall take such action at its own expense and may require from each participant such information in writing for use in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus or offering circular as is reasonably necessary for such purpose and may require reasonable indemnity to the Company and its officers and directors from such holder against all losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising from such use of the information so furnished and caused by any untrue statement of any material fact
7
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.
15.OPTIONNOTA SERVICE CONTRACT. Your option is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in your option shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ of the Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your employment. In addition, nothing in your option shall obligate the Company or an Affiliate, their respective stockholders, Boards of Directors, officers or employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a director or consultant for the Company or an Affiliate.
16. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.
(a) At the time you exercise your option, in whole or in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you, and otherwise agree to make adequate provision for (including by means of a “cashless exercise” pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or an Affiliate, if any, which arise in connection with your option.
(b) Upon your request and subject to approval by the Company, in its sole discretion, and compliance with any applicable conditions or restrictions of law, the Company may withhold from vested shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to you upon the exercise of your option a number of whole shares of Common Stock having a fair market value, determined by the Company as of the date of exercise, not in excess of the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law. If the date of determination of any tax withholding obligation is deferred to a date later than the date of exercise of your option, share withholding pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not be permitted unless you make a proper and timely election under Section 83(b) of the Code, covering the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock acquired upon such exercise with respect to which such determination is otherwise deferred, to accelerate the determination of such tax withholding obligation to the date of exercise of your option. Notwithstanding the filing of such election, shares of Common Stock shall be withheld solely from fully vested shares of Common Stock determined as of the date of exercise of your option that are otherwise issuable to you upon such exercise. Any adverse consequences to you arising in connection with such share withholding procedure shall be your sole responsibility.
(c) You may not exercise your option unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied. Accordingly, you may not be able to exercise your option when desired even though your option is vested, and the Company shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares of Common Stock or release such shares of Common Stock from any escrow provided for herein.
17.NOTICES. Any notices provided for in this option shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by mail by the
8
Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company.
18. CHOICEOF LAW. This option shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, as such laws are applied to contracts entered into and performed in such State.
19. GOVERNING AUTHORITY. This option is subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted by the Company. This authority shall be exercised by the Board, or by a committee of one or more members of the Board in the event that the Board delegates its authority to a committee. The Board, in the exercise of this authority, may correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in this option in a manner and to the extent the Board shall deem necessary or desirable to make this option folly effective. References to the Board also include any committee appointed by the Board to administer and interpret this option. Any interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations promulgated by the Board shall be final and binding upon the Company and its successors in interest as well as you and your heirs, assigns, and other successors in interest.
