It is intended that, to the extent permitted by law, the Option constitute an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and that any remaining portion of the Option constitutes a “non-qualified” stock option. Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have their respective meanings set forth in the Plan.

      2.  Period of Option . The term of the Option and of this Option Agreement shall commence on the date hereof (the “Date of Grant”) and shall terminate upon the expiration of ten (10) years from the Date of Grant. Upon the termination of the Option, all rights of the Optionee hereunder shall cease.

      3.  Conditions of Exercise . (a) The Option shall become exercisable as to ___ percent (___%) of the Option Shares on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant and as to an additional ___percent (___%) on each of the ___, ___and ___anniversaries of such date (each such exercise date, a “Vesting Date”); provided that on a Vesting Date the Optionee is, and has continuously since the Date of Grant of the Option, remained in the employ of the Company.

          (b) Except as otherwise provided herein, Options may not be exercised unless the Optionee is then in the employ of the Company, and unless the Optionee has remained continuously so employed since the Date of Grant of the Option.

          (c) If the employment of the Optionee terminates for any reason (other than by reason of death, disability or retirement), all Options theretofore granted to and then exercisable by such Optionee (except those that have previously terminated) may be exercised by the Optionee within three months after the date of such termination, and will thereafter be forfeited.

          (d) If the Optionee dies while in the employ of the Company or dies within three months after termination of employment (other than termination for Cause, as defined in

 


 

          Section 5 prior to the occurrence of a change in control, as defined in Section 5), or if the employment of the Optionee terminates by reason of disability or retirement, all Options theretofore granted to and then exercisable by such Optionee (except those that have previously terminated) may be exercised by the Optionee or any person or persons to whom the Optionee’s rights pass by reason of death or disability, within one year after the earlier to occur of the Optionee’s death or disability, and will thereafter be forfeited.

          (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the employment of the Optionee is terminated for Cause (as defined in Section 5), prior to the occurrence of a change in control, all Options then held by such Optionee to the extent not theretofore exercised, shall terminate on the date of such termination.

          (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that, within a period of twelve (12) months following a Change in Control, the Optionee’s employment with the Company shall be terminated (i) by the Company for any reason or (ii) by the Optionee for Good Reason (as defined in Section 5), the Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to 100% of the Option Shares immediately upon such termination of employment.

      4.  Adjustment of Option . The number and class of shares subject to the Option and the Option Price shall be subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of changes in the capital stock of the Company by reason of stock dividends, split-ups or combinations of shares, reclassification, mergers, consolidations, reorganizations, liquidations or other corporate events, as provided in the Plan.

      5.  Definitions

          (a) For the purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if:
