ARTICLE I
INTRODUCTION
      1.1 Establishment . On January 19, 1993, McAfee, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the predecessor to McAfee, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with any successor corporation thereto, the “Company”), established the McAfee, Inc. Stock Option Plan for Outside Directors (the “Initial Plan”) for certain members of its Board (as defined in Section 2.1(d)) who are not employees of the Company or any Affiliated Corporation (as defined in Section 2.1(b)) and who are eligible to participate in the Plan based upon the definition of an Outside Director set forth in Section 2.1(i). The Initial Plan was amended and restated in its entirety in April 1995 by the Board of Directors of the Company and ratified by the Company’s stockholders in June 1995 as the Amended and Restated McAfee, Inc. Stock Option Plan for Outside Directors (the “Plan”).
      1.2 Purposes . The purpose of the Plan is to provide certain directors of the Company who are not also employees of the Company or an Affiliated Corporation (as defined in Section 2.1(b)) added incentive to continue in the service of the Company and a more direct interest in the future success of the operations of the Company.
      1.3 Effective Date . The effective date of the Plan shall be January 1, 1993 (the “Effective Date”), subject to approval by the affirmative votes of the holders of a majority of the shares of the Company present or represented and entitled to vote at a meeting duly held (in person or through written consent) in accordance with governing law within one year following the Effective Date. If the stockholders of the Company do not approve the Plan as specified above, Options granted under the Plan shall be deemed to be rescinded without any further action by the Board or the Company, and the Plan shall automatically terminate, notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan to the contrary.
