Stock Option Agreement

1. Grant of Option . The Company hereby grants Optionee an Option to purchase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock (“Shares”) under the McAfee, Inc. 1997 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), as set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “Notice”). The terms of this Option are set forth in the Plan, the Notice and this Stock Option Agreement including the Appendix (the “Agreement”). In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the Notice, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan or the Notice as applicable.

2. Exercise of Option .

     (a)  Right to Exercise . This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the vesting schedule and restrictions on exercisability set forth in the Notice and the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement.

     (b)  Method of Exercise .

          (i) This Option may be exercised through the Company’s designated broker. The Optionee shall specify the number of Shares being purchased, and the exercise shall be effective when the online exercise is complete or hard copy exercise notice is provided to the Company (if permitted) and the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased, and any Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section 11 below), is received by the Company.

          (ii) No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option (and no exercise will be permitted) unless such issuance and such exercise complies with all relevant applicable provisions of law, whether foreign or domestic, and the requirements of any stock exchange or interdealer quotation system upon which the Shares may then be listed or traded.

          (iii) If this Option is being exercised by the representative of the Optionee, the representative must prove the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled to do so.

3. Method of Payment .

     (a) Unless provided otherwise in the Appendix, payment of the Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Optionee: (i) cash in U.S. dollars, (ii) check payable in U.S. dollars, (iii) irrevocable directions to a designated broker appointed by the Company to sell all or a portion of the Shares subject to the exercised Option, and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the Exercise Price and any Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section 11 below). The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to Optionee in cash if all Shares were directed to be sold, or in Shares if only a portion of the Shares were directed to be sold to cover the Exercise Price and Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section 11 below). Regardless of the method of payment of the Exercise Price, the exercise instructions must be received in a form approved by the Company and Optionee must provide any other documentation required by the Company at the time of exercise.

     (b) Neither the Optionee nor the Optionee’s representative shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares subject to this Option until the Optionee or the Optionee’s representative becomes entitled to receive such Shares by completing an exercise as described in Section 2 above and paying the aggregate Exercise Price pursuant to Section 2 and Section 3(a).

8. Adjustment. The number of Shares subject to the Option shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Article 10 of the Plan.

9. Data Privacy . Optionee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of his or her personal data as described in this Agreement by and among, as applicable, the employer (“the Employer”), the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing his or her participation in the Plan.
