Options and SAR’s. Each Option and SAR held by the Participant shall, to the extent rights to purchase shares under such Option and/or SAR have vested at the date of such Termination of Service shall not have been fully exercised, be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time and within a period of three (3) months following Termination of Service, subject to prior expiration of the term of such Option and/or SAR.

Options and SAR’s. Each Option and SAR held by the Participant for a period of less than twelve (12) consecutive months after the Award Date shall be deemed vested by multiplying the number of shares subject to the Award by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full calendar months of employment or service subsequent to the date of the Award, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). Conditioned upon Participant’s compliance with the noncompete covenant set forth in the Award Agreement, each Option and SAR held by the Participant for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months or greater after the Award Date shall continue to vest in accordance with the stated vesting period, provided that such period not exceed five (5) years from the Participant’s Termination of Service. Conditioned upon Participant’s compliance with the noncompete covenant set forth in the Award Agreement, the Participant shall have the right to exercise such Option and/or SAR, to the extent vested, following the expiration of the noncompete covenant and prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Participant’s Termination of Service, subject, however, to prior expiration according to its terms and other limitations imposed by the Plan. If the Participant dies after such Retirement, the Participant’s Options and/or SAR’s shall be exercisable in accordance with [Section 11.4] below.

Options. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each Option, including but not limited to: # whether the Option is an “incentive stock option” which meets the requirements of Code Section 422, or a “nonqualified stock option” which does not meet the requirements of Code Section 422; # the grant date, which may not be any day prior to the date that the Administrator approves the grant; # the number of Shares subject to the Option; # the exercise price, which may not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option as determined on the date of grant; # the terms and conditions of vesting and exercise; and # the term, except that an Option must terminate no later than ten (10) years after the date of grant. In all other respects, the terms of any incentive stock option should comply with the provisions of Code Section 422 except to the extent the Administrator determines otherwise. Except to the extent Administrator determines otherwise, a Participant may exercise an Option in whole or part after the right to exercise the Option has accrued, provided that any partial exercise must be for one hundred (100) Shares or multiples thereof. If an Option that is intended to be an incentive stock option fails to meet the requirements thereof, the Option shall automatically be treated as a nonqualified stock option to the extent of such failure.

Options. We will recommend to the Board of Directors of the Company that you be granted the opportunity to purchase up to seven hundred and fifty thousand (750,000) shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Option”) under our 2006 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) at the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock, as determined by the Board of Directors on the date the Board approves such grant. The shares you will be given the opportunity to purchase will vest at the rate of 25% percent at the end of your first anniversary with the Company, and an additional 2.08333% percent per month thereafter, so long as you remain continuously employed by the Company. However, the grant of such options by the Company is subject to the Board’s approval and this promise to recommend such approval is not a promise of compensation and is not intended to create any obligation on the part of the Company. Further details on the Plan and any specific option grant to you will be provided upon approval of such grant by the Company’s Board of Directors.

Options. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to any Eligible Person on the following terms and conditions:

Options. Options may be granted alone or in addition to other Awards granted under this Plan. Each Option granted under this Plan shall be either an Incentive Stock Option (ISO) or a Nonqualified Stock Option (NQSO).

Options. The maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be granted in the form of Options, 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 Options as of the close of the previous Plan Year.

Options. All Non-Qualified Stock Options granted under the Plan shall have: # a per share exercise price equal to the closing price of the Common Stock on the day on which such options are granted; and # vesting, expiration and such other terms as provided in the Company’s form of Non-Employee Director Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement attached hereto as [Exhibit B].

Subsequent Options. Each Subsequent Option shall vest and become exercisable on the earlier of the first anniversary of the date of grant or the day immediately prior to the date of the next annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders occurring after the date of grant, in either case, subject to the Non-Employee Director continuing in service as a Non-Employee Director through such vesting date.

Elective Options. Each Elective Option shall vest and become exercisable as to 25% of the Shares subject to the Elective Option (each, a “Tranche”) upon the Non-Employee Director completing three months of continuous service as a Non-Employee Director, or in the applicable position, following the Issue Date, provided that the fourth and final Tranche of each Elective Option will vest and become exercisable on the earlier of the first anniversary of the Issue Date or the day immediately prior to the date of the next annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders occurring after the Issue Date. By way of example, if, during a given Service Year, a Non-Employee Director ceases to serve on a committee of the Board for which such Non-Employee Director was granted a Committee Member Retainer Elective Option but continues to serve on the Board as a Non-Employee Director, such Non-Employee Director’s Base Retainer Elective Option will continue to vest and become exercisable while such Non-Employee Director continues to serve as a Non-Employee Director and any portion of such Non-Employee Director’s Committee Member Retainer Elective Option that has not become vested and exercisable on or prior to the date such Non-Employee Director ceases to serve on such committee shall be immediately forfeited on the date such Non-Employee Director ceases to serve on such committee.
