The date of grant of this Option is              , 200    (the “Grant Date”). The Optionee acknowledges and agrees that this Option is a substitution for the Americsource Option and that effective as of the Grant Date, the Optionee shall have no rights under the Americsource Option.

The Optionee’s right, if any, to continue to be employed by the Company will not be enlarged or otherwise affected by the receipt of this Option, and the receipt of this Option will not in any way restrict the right of the Company to terminate the Optionee’s employment at any time.

2. Price . The purchase price (the “Option Price”) for the shares of Stock subject to the Option granted by this Agreement is $              per share.

 


3. Vesting of the Option . The Option granted pursuant to this Agreement shall vest and become exercisable in accordance with the following provisions:
