Restrictions on Disposition of Stock. Except in the case of Stock which is Readily Tradable on an Established Securities Market, a Participant who receives Stock pursuant to Section 10.1, and any person who has received Stock from the Plan or from such a Participant by reason of the Participant’s death or incompetence, by reason of divorce or separation from the Participant, or by reason of a rollover contribution described in Section 402(a)(5) of the Code, shall, prior to any sale or other transfer of the Stock to any other person, first offer the Stock to the issuing Employer and to the Plan at the greater of # its current fair market value, or # the purchase price offered in good faith by an independent third party purchaser. This restriction shall apply to any transfer, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, and whether for consideration or gratuitous. Either the Employer or the Trustee may accept the offer within 14 days after it is delivered. Any Stock distributed by the Plan shall bear a conspicuous legend describing the right of first refusal under this Section 10.7, as well as any other restrictions upon the transfer of the Stock imposed by federal and state securities laws and regulations.

Disposition of Warrant or Shares. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this Warrant or any shares of Applicable Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, the Holder agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner

Use and Disposition of Collateral. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor may, in any lawful manner not prohibited by the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, use, control and manage the Collateral in the operation of its business, and receive and use the income, revenue and profits arising therefrom and the Proceeds thereof, in the same manner and with the same effect as if this Agreement had not been made; provided, however, that no Grantor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge, grant any Lien with respect to or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein, except for the security interest created in favor of the Administrative Agent hereunder and except as may be otherwise expressly permitted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (including any applicable provisions therein regarding delivery of Proceeds of Dispositions to the Administrative Agent) or as required by applicable Law.

Incentive Stock Option; Disqualifying Disposition. Although this Option is intended to qualify as an incentive stock option under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), the Company makes no representation as to the tax treatment upon exercise of this Option or sale or other disposition of the shares covered by this Option, and the Holder is advised to consult a personal tax advisor. Upon a Disqualifying Disposition of shares received upon exercise of this Option, the Holder will forfeit the favorable income tax treatment otherwise available with respect to the exercise of this Option. A “Disqualifying Disposition” shall have the meaning specified in Section 421(b) of the Code; as of the date of grant of this Option a Disqualifying Disposition is any disposition (including any sale) of such shares before the later of # the second anniversary of the date of grant of this Option and # the first anniversary of the date on which the Holder acquired such shares by exercising this Option, provided that such holding period requirements terminate upon the death of the Holder. The Holder shall notify the Company in writing immediately upon making a Disqualifying Disposition of any shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the exercise of this Option, and shall provide the Company with any information that the Company shall request concerning any such Disqualifying Disposition.

Substitute Awards. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 5 to the contrary, in the case of an Option that is a Substitute Award, the price per Share of the Shares subject to such Option may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant; provided, however, that the exercise price of any Substitute Award shall be determined in accordance with the applicable requirements of Sections 424 and 409A of the Code.

The Administrator is authorized to grant Performance Awards to any Eligible Individual. The value of Performance Awards may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific criteria determined by the Administrator, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator.

Equity Awards. The Market Capital Milestones set forth in [Exhibit A] to the Agreement, and the Stock Compensation set forth in [Exhibit B] to the Agreement as the same relate to annual awards based on 50% of the Executive’s base salary, are deleted in their entirety. The Financial Milestones set forth in [Exhibit A] shall remain in full force and effect. The parties agree and acknowledge that, as a result of the foregoing, the equity compensation owed, owing or to be issued to the Executive as a result of the achievement of the Market Capitalization Milestones, or annual awards based on 50% of the Executive’s base salary, are void, and shall terminate and be of no force and effect.

Replacement Awards. Subject to Applicable Laws (including any associated stockholder approval requirements), the Committee may, in its sole discretion and upon such terms as it deems appropriate, require as a condition of the grant of an Award to a Participant that the Participant surrender for cancellation some or all of the Awards that have previously been granted to the Participant under this Plan or otherwise. An Award that is conditioned upon such surrender may or may not be the same type of Award, may cover the same (or a lesser or greater) number of Shares as such surrendered Award, may have other terms that are determined without regard to the terms or conditions of such surrendered Award, and may contain any other terms that the Committee deems appropriate. In the case of Options, these other terms may not include an exercise price that is lower than the exercise price of the surrendered Option unless the Company’s stockholders approve the Option grant itself or the program under which the Option grant is made pursuant to the Plan.

Lapsed Awards. If any Award is: # forfeited or otherwise expires, terminates or is canceled without the delivery of all Shares (or is forfeited by repurchase of Shares) subject to it or # settled other than by delivery of Shares (including cash settlement), then the number of Shares subject to such Awards that were not issued shall again become available to be delivered pursuant to future Awards under the Plan. For purposes of determining the number of Shares that may be delivered pursuant to lapsed Awards, the term “Award” shall include any lapsed awards granted under the 2008 Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, only Shares which are actually issued in respect of Awards will cease to be available under the Plan; provided, however, that # Shares delivered (by actual delivery, attestation, or net exercise) to the Company by a Participant to purchase Shares upon the exercise of an Award or to satisfy tax withholding obligations (including shares retained from the Award creating the tax obligation) shall not be added back to the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan and # Shares repurchased by the Company on the open market using the proceeds from the exercise of an Award shall not increase the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan.

Substitute Awards. In connection with a merger or consolidation of an entity with the Company or the acquisition by the Company of property or stock of an entity, the Board may grant Awards in substitution for any options or other stock or stock-based awards granted by such entity or an affiliate thereof. Substitute Awards may be granted on such terms as the Board deems appropriate in the circumstances, notwithstanding any limitations on Awards contained in the Plan. Substitute Awards shall not count against the overall share limit set forth in Section 4(a), except as may be required by reason of [Section 422] and related provisions of the Code.
