1998 Stock Option Plan. Xxxxxxxxx.xxx's 1998 Stock Option Plan (the 1998 Option Plan) was adopted in December 1998 and amended in September 1999. Xxxxxxxxx.xxx has reserved 1,500,000 shares under the 1998 Option Plan. The 1998 Option Plan provides for the granting to employees of incentive stock options within the meaning of the Code, and for the granting to employees of nonstatutory stock options. The exercise price of non-statutory options granted under the 1998 Option Plan cannot be lower than 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of all incentive stock options granted cannot be lower than the fair market value on the grant date.
