GRANT OF SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, SARs may be granted to Participants at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee may grant Freestanding SARs, Tandem SARs, or any combination of these forms of SAR.

Grant of SARs. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may grant rights to receive any excess in value of shares of Common Stock over the exercise price (“Stock Appreciation Rights” or “SARs”). The Committee shall determine at the time of grant or thereafter whether SARs are settled in cash, Common Stock or other securities of the Company, Awards or other property, and may define the manner of determining the excess in value of the shares of Common Stock.

Grant of SARs. Each Option granted under the Plan may include a SAR. The maximum number of SARs that may be awarded to any participant Participant in any year shall be 1,265,625 (subject to adjustment in accordance with Article 10). Such SAR shall entitle the Optionee (or any person having the right to exercise the Option after the Optionee’s death) to surrender to the Company, unexercised, all or any part of that portion of the Option which then is exercisable and to receive from the Company Common Shares or cash, or a combination of Common Shares and cash, as the Committee shall determine. If a SAR is exercised, the number of Common Shares remaining subject to the related Option shall be reduced accordingly, and vice versa. The amount of cash and/or the Fair Market Value of Common Shares received upon exercise of a SAR shall, in the aggregate, be equal to the amount by which the Fair Market Value (on the date of surrender) of the Common Shares subject to the surrendered portion of the Option exceeds the Exercise Price. In no event shall any SAR be exercised if such Fair Market Value does not exceed the Exercise Price. A SAR may be included in an ISO only at the time of grant but may be included in a NSO at the time of grant or at any subsequent time.

Grant of SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a SAR may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine the number of SARs granted to any Service Provider. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions of SARs granted under the Plan, including the sole discretion to accelerate exercisability at any time.

SARs. The maximum number of Shares that may be granted in the form of Stock Appreciation Rights, pursuant to all Awards of such type granted in any one Plan Year to any one Participant shall be five hundred thousand (500,000), plus the amount of the Participant’s unused applicable Annual Award Limit for SARs as of the close of the previous Plan Year.

The Committee shall have the right, without stockholder approval, to # cancel or amend outstanding Options or SARs for the purpose of repricing, replacing or regranting such Options or SARs with Options or SARs that have a purchase or grant price that is less than the purchase or grant price for the original Options or SARs except in connection with adjustments provided in Section 15, or # issue an Option or amend an outstanding Option to provide for the grant or issuance of a new Option on exercise of the original Option.

Vesting Dates. Except as otherwise provided in the Terms and Conditions, while you are an active full-time employee, one-third (1/3) of the SARs will vest and become exercisable on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the Grant Date. Once SARs become vested and exercisable, you may exercise those SARs at any time prior to the Expiration Date, except as otherwise provided in the Terms and Conditions. Scheduled vesting dates and amounts for this award are viewable by clicking on the Grant Date hyperlink on your Stock Appreciation Rights Grant Information page on the Stock Incentive Plan Administrator’s web site.

Modification, Extension or Assumption of SARs. Within the limitations of the Plan (including but not limited to Section 3(e)), the Committee may modify, extend or assume outstanding SARs or may accept the cancellation of outstanding SARs (whether granted by the Company or by another issuer) in return for the grant of new SARs for the same or a different number of Shares and at the same or a different Exercise Price, or in return for the grant of a different Award for the same or a different number of Shares, without stockholder approval. The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of a SAR shall, without the consent of the holder, materially impair such holder’s rights or obligations under such SAR.

Unless otherwise designated by the Committee at the time of grant, the grant price of a Freestanding SAR shall equal the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of the SAR. The grant price of Tandem SARs shall equal the Option Price of the related Option.

Exercise of SARs. Unless the Award Agreement otherwise provides, an SAR related to an Option will be exercisable at such time or times, and to the extent, that the related Option will be exercisable; provided that the Award Agreement shall not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, provide for a vesting period for the exercise of the SAR that is more favorable to the Participant than the exercise period for the related Option. An SAR may not have a term exceeding eight years from its Grant Date. An SAR granted independently of any other Award will be exercisable pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement. Whether an SAR is related to an Option or is granted independently, the SAR may only be exercised when the Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying the SAR exceeds the exercise price of the SAR.
