4. Administration of the Plan.
(a) Procedure.
(i) Multiple Administrative Bodies. Different Committees with respect to different groups of Service Providers may administer the Plan.
(ii) Section 162(m). To the extent that the Administrator determines it to be desirable to qualify Awards or Options granted hereunder as "performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Plan shall be administered by a Committee of two or more "outside directors" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.
-4-
(iii) Rule 16b-3. To the extent desirable to qualify transactions hereunder as exempt under Rule 16b-3, the transactions contemplated hereunder shall be structured to satisfy the requirements for exemption under Rule 16b-3.
(iv) Other Administration. Other than as provided above, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee, which committee shall be constituted to satisfy Applicable Laws.
(b) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, and in the case of a Committee, subject to the specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion:
(i) to select the Service Providers to whom Awards or Options may be granted hereunder;
(ii) to determine the number of shares of Common Stock, units of Restricted Stock Units or other amounts to be covered by each Award or Option granted hereunder, and in the case of Restricted Stock Units, to determine the amount, if any, of cash payment to be made to the Awardee;
(iii) to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan;
(iv) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award or Option granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Options may be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), the time or times when Awards vest (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or Option or the shares of Common Stock relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;
(v) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan;
(vi) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established for the purpose of satisfying applicable foreign laws;
(vii) to modify or amend each Award or Option (subject to Section 15(c) of the Plan), including the discretionary authority to extend the post-termination exercisability period of Options longer than is otherwise provided for in the Plan; provided, however, that the Administrator shall not reduce the exercise price of Options or cancel any outstanding Option and replace it with a new Option with a lower exercise price, where the economic effect would be the same as reducing the exercise price of the cancelled Option, without the approval of the Company’s shareholders;
-5-
(viii) to allow Awardees or Optionees to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option or vesting of an Award that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by an Awardee or Optionee to have Shares withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable;
(ix) to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award or Option previously granted by the Administrator; and
(x) to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Plan.
(c) Effect of Administrator's Decision. The Administrator's decisions, determinations and interpretations shall be final and binding on all Awardees and Optionees and any other holders of Awards or Options.
5. Eligibility. Nonstatutory Stock Options and Awards may be granted to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees.
6. Limitations.
(a) Each Option shall be designated in the Option Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 6(a), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.
(b) Neither the Plan nor any Award or Option shall confer upon an Awardee or Optionee any right with respect to continuing that individual’s relationship as a Service Provider with the Company, nor shall they interfere in any way with the Awardee’s or Optionee's right or the Company's right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause.
(c) The following limitations shall apply to grants of Awards and Options:
(i) No Service Provider shall be granted, in any fiscal year of the Company, Options and Awards covering more than 600,000 Shares.
(ii) In connection with his or her initial service, a Service Provider may be granted Options and Awards covering an additional 900,000 Shares, which shall not count against the limit set forth in subsection (i) above.
(iii) The foregoing limitations shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company's capitalization as described in Section 13.
(iv) If an Award or Option is cancelled in the same fiscal year of the Company in which it was granted (other than in connection with a transaction described in Section 13), the cancelled Option or Award will be counted against the limits set forth in subsections (i) and (ii) above.
-6-
7. Awards. All Awards shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement, to the extent consistent with the terms of the Plan. Awards may be granted either alone or in addition to Options granted under the Plan. Upon each vesting date of a Restricted Stock Award, provided that the Awardee is then a Service Provider, the Awardee shall be entitled to receive the number of Shares vested without payment of any consideration to the Company, unless otherwise required by applicable law or determined by the Administrator. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, Awardees of Restricted Stock will have full voting rights and be entitled to regular cash dividends with respect to the Shares subject to their Awards. A Restricted Stock Award Agreement may provide that certain restrictions will apply to any such dividends. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, upon each vesting date of a Restricted Stock Unit Award, provided the Awardee is then a Service Provider, the Awardee shall be entitled to receive, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Administrator, and without consideration to the Company (unless otherwise required by applicable law or determined by the Administrator), (a) a number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on such vesting date, (b) a cash payment equal to the product of the number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on such vesting date and the Fair Market Value of one Share on such vesting date or (c) a combination of the foregoing.
8. Term of Plan. Subject to Section 19 of the Plan, the Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless terminated earlier under Section 15 of the Plan.
9. Term of Award or Option. The term of each Option (and, to the extent applicable, the term of each Award) shall be ten (10) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement or Option Agreement. However, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement.
10. Option Exercise Price and Consideration.
(a) Exercise Price. The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be determined by the Administrator, subject to the following:
(i) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option
(A) granted to an Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
(B) granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in paragraph (A) immediately above, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
-7-
(ii) In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a merger or consolidation of or by the Company with or into another corporation, the purchase or acquisition of property or stock by the Company of another corporation, any spin-off or other distribution of stock or property by the Company or another corporation, any reorganization of the Company, or any partial or complete liquidation of the Company, if such action by the Company or other corporation results in a significant number of Employees or employees being transferred to a new employer or discharged, or in the creation or severance of the Parent-Subsidiary relationship.
(b) Waiting Period and Exercise Dates. At the time an Option is granted, the Administrator shall fix the period within which the Option may be exercised and shall determine any conditions that must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised.
(c) Form of Consideration. The Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Such consideration may consist entirely of:
(i) cash;
(ii) check;
(iii) promissory note;
(iv) other Shares which, in the case of Shares acquired directly or indirectly from the Company, (A) have been owned by the Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and (B) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised;
(v) consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise program approved by the Company;
(vi) a reduction in the amount of any Company liability to the Optionee, including any liability attributable to the Optionee's participation in any Company-sponsored deferred compensation program or arrangement;
(vii) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or
(viii) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws.
11. Exercise of Option; Termination as Service Provider.
-8-
(a) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder. Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Option Agreement. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Awards and Options granted hereunder shall be suspended during any unpaid leave of absence. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.
An Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Option Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the Option or such person’s authorized agent, and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Option Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be issued in the name of the Optionee. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Sections 7 and 13 of the Plan.
Exercising an Option in any manner shall decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for delivery under the Award or Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.
(b) Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider. If an Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider, other than upon the Optionee's death or Disability, the Optionee may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for three (3) months following the Optionee's termination. If an Awardee ceases to be a Service Provider, for any reason, all unvested Shares covered by his or her Award, and all unvested Restricted Stock Units, shall be forfeited. If, on the date of termination, the Optionee or Awardee is not vested as to his or her entire Option or Award, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option or Award shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.
(c) Disability of Optionee. If an Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the Optionee's Disability, the Optionee may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Optionee's termination. If, on the date of termination, the Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.
-9-
(d) Death of Optionee. If an Optionee dies while a Service Provider or within thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time not exceeding three (3) months as is determined by the Administrator), the Option may be exercised following the Optionee's death within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death (but in no event may the option be exercised later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), by the personal representative of the Optionee's estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee's will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following Optionee's death. If, at the time of death, Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall immediately revert to the Plan. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.
12. Transferability of Awards and Options. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award or Option may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee. If the Administrator makes an Award or Option transferable, such Award or Option shall contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.
13. Adjustments; Dissolution; Merger or Change in Control.
(a) Adjustments. In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, may (in its sole discretion) adjust the number and class of Shares that may be delivered under the Plan and/or the number, class, and price of Shares covered by each outstanding Award and Option and the numerical limits of Section 6.
(b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify each Awardee and Optionee as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for an Optionee to have the right to exercise his or her Option until ten (10) days prior to such transaction as to all of the Optioned Stock covered thereby, including Shares as to which the Option would not otherwise be exercisable. The Administrator in its discretion may provide that the vesting of an Award accelerate at any time prior to such transaction. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Option will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, and unvested Shares and Restricted Stock Units subject to an Award will be forfeited immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.
-10-
(c) Merger or Change in Control. In the event of a merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or a Change in Control, each outstanding Award and Option shall be assumed or an equivalent award, option or right substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event the successor corporation does not agree to assume the Award or Option, or substitute an equivalent option or right, the Administrator shall, in lieu of such assumption or substitution, provide for the Awardee or Optionee to have the right to vest in and exercise the Option as to all of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which the Option would not otherwise be vested or exercisable, and in the case of an Award, to vest in the entire Award. If the Administrator makes an Option fully vested and exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or Change in Control, the Administrator shall notify the Optionee that the Option shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and the Option will terminate upon the expiration of such period. If, in such a merger or Change in Control, the Award or Option is assumed or an equivalent award or option or right is substituted by such successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of such successor corporation, and if during a one-year period after the effective date of such merger or Change in Control, the Awardee’s or Optionee's status as a Service Provider is terminated for any reason other than the Awardee’s or Optionee's voluntary termination of such relationship, then (i) in the case of an Option, the Optionee shall have the right within three (3) months thereafter to exercise the Option as to all of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which the Option would not be otherwise exercisable, effective as of the date of such termination and (ii) in the case of an Award, the Award shall be fully vested on the date of such termination.
For the purposes of this subsection (c), the Award or Option shall be considered assumed if, following the merger or Change in Control, the option or right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Awarded Stock and each Restricted Stock Unit subject to the Award, or each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option, in each case immediately prior to the merger or Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger or Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option, for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option, and upon the vesting of an Award, for each Share of Awarded Stock and each Restricted Stock Unit to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or Change in Control.
14. Date of Grant. Except for Options granted to Outside Directors under Section 15 hereof, the date of grant of an Award or Option shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award or Option, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be provided to each Awardee and Optionee within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.
15. Option Grants to Outside Directors. All grants of Options to Outside Directors shall be automatic and non-discretionary and shall be made strictly in accordance with the following provisions:
-11-
(i) No person shall have any discretion to select which Outside Directors shall be granted Options or to determine the number of Shares to be covered by Options granted to Outside Directors.
(ii) Each Outside Director shall be automatically granted an Option to purchase 15,000 Shares (the "First Option") upon the date on which such person first becomes a Director, whether through election by the shareholders of the Company or appointment by the Board of Directors to fill a vacancy.
(iii) After a First Option has been granted to any Outside Director, each Outside Director shall thereafter be automatically granted an Option to purchase 10,000 Shares (a "Subsequent Option") on the day of each subsequent annual shareholders meeting at which such Outside Director is reelected to an additional term; provided, however, that no Subsequent Option shall be granted for the first annual shareholders meeting following the grant of a First Option to any director.
(iv) In the event that the number of Shares remaining available for grant under the Plan is less than the number of Shares required for an automatic grant pursuant to either subsection (ii) or (iii) hereof, then each such automatic grant shall be for that number of Shares determined by dividing the total number of Shares remaining available for grant by the number of Outside Directors on the automatic grant date. Any further automatic grants shall then be deferred until such time, if any, as additional Shares become available for grant under the Plan through action to increase the number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan or through cancellation or expiration of Options previously granted under the Plan.
(v) The terms of an Option granted hereunder shall be consistent with the requirements set forth elsewhere in this plan, except that the Option shall become exercisable in installments cumulatively with respect to 1/36 of the Shares for each complete calendar month after the date of grant of such Option.
(vi) The number of Shares granted pursuant to subsections (ii) and (iii) hereof shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company's capitalization as described in Section 13.
16. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.
(a) Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan. The Board may not materially alter the Plan without shareholder approval, including by increasing the benefits accrued to participants under the Plan; increasing the number of securities which may be issued under the Plan; modifying the requirements for participation in the Plan; or including a provision allowing the Board to lapse or waive restrictions at its discretion.
(b) Shareholder Approval. The Company shall obtain shareholder approval of this Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws and paragraph (c) below.
-12-
(c) Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan or any Award or Option shall (i) impair the rights of any Awardee or Optionee, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Awardee or Optionee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Awardee or Optionee and the Company or (ii) permit the reduction of the exercise price of an Option after it has been granted (except for adjustments made pursuant to Section 13), unless approved by the Company’s shareholders. Neither may the Administrator, without the approval of the Company’s shareholders, cancel any outstanding Option and replace it with a new Option with a lower exercise price, where the economic effect would be the same as reducing the exercise price of the cancelled Option. Termination of the Plan shall not affect the Administrator's ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards and Options granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination. Any increase in the number of shares subject to the Plan, other than pursuant to Section 13 hereof, shall be approved by the Company’s shareholders.
17. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares; Deferred Compensation Legislation.
(a) Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the vesting of an Award unless the exercise of such Option and the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.
