Advanced Medical Optics, Inc.

 

NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION GRANT

 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

As of May 2005

 

1. Definitions . Capitalized terms used in this Grant but not otherwise defined shall have the same meanings as in the Advanced Medical Optics, Inc. 2005 Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended (the “Plan”).

 

2. The Option . You may, at your discretion and on the terms and conditions set forth herein, purchase all or any part of an aggregate of the shares of Common Stock at the price per share set forth in the Grant Summary (the “Summary”).

 

3. Terms of Exercise .

 

(a) Subject to the provisions of Sections 4, 5, 6, and 7 below, as applicable, the Option shall vest and be exercisable at the option exercise price per share (the “Option Price” or “Exercise Price”) and as to the specified number of shares (the “Vesting Amount”) on and after the dates set forth under Vesting Schedule and on or before the “Expiration Date” as set forth in the Summary. You have no right to exercise the Option with respect to any installment until such installment vests as provided in the Summary. The Option granted hereunder shall expire and be no longer exercisable as provided in the Plan and this Grant.

 

(b) The Option may be exercised as to all or any portion of the “Options Granted” covered by an installment of the Option that has vested and that has not yet expired and become unexercisable as provided in the Plan or this Grant (“Vested Installment”). Vested Installments may be exercised, in whole or in part, by giving notice of exercise to AMO’s stock plan administrator, which notice shall specify the number of Options Granted to be purchased and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price in cash or: (i) in whole or in part, through the delivery of shares of Common Stock duly endorsed for transfer to AMO with a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or exercised portion thereof; provided, however, that if such shares of Common Stock were issued to you directly from the Company, such shares must have been owned by you for at least six months; or (ii) through a combination of cash and the consideration provided in the foregoing subparagraph (i). Payment of cash may be by personal check, cashier’s check or money market draft on your own account payable to the order of AMO or such other means as the Committee (or with respect to an Option granted to an Independent Director, the Board) shall determine. An exercise is effective only upon receipt of both the written notice and the payment in full of the purchase price.


4. Change in Control . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Grant, in the event of a Change in Control the Option shall, as of the date of such Change in Control, immediately become vested and exercisable with respect to the full number of Options Granted.

 

5. Termination of Employment . This Section 5 shall apply solely to Options granted to Employees.

 

(a) Except as otherwise provided in a written agreement between you and the Company, in the event of termination of your employment with the Company for Cause, the Option shall become unexercisable as of the date of such termination and you shall thereafter have no further rights to purchase any of the Optioned Shares.

 

(b) Except as otherwise provided in a written agreement between you and the Company, in the event of your termination of employment with the Company and its subsidiaries for:

 

(i) Any reason other than for Cause, death, Total Disability, Normal Retirement, or Job Elimination, the Options shall become unexercisable as of the earlier of (A) the date the Vested Installments expire in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(a) above or (B) three calendar months after the date of termination.

 

(ii) Death or Total Disability, the Option shall vest in its entirety as of your last date of employment and shall expire and become unexercisable one calendar year after the date of your termination.

 

(iii) Normal Retirement, the Option shall expire and become unexercisable as of the earlier of (A) the date the Vested Installments expire in accordance with the provisio
