Extension of Stock Option Exercise Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event any extended exercise period provided for in this Agreement shall result in a portion of a stock option becoming subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, the extended exercise period of such portion of such stock option shall be automatically shortened to the minimum extent necessary to prevent such portion of such option from becoming subject to Section 409A of the Code. In further limitation of any provisions providing for an extended exercise period, the following provisions shall apply: (i) If the stock option was granted pursuant to the 1997 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the “1997 Plan”) and pursuant to a Change in Control (as defined in the 1997 Plan) substantially all of the stock options outstanding pursuant to the 1997 Plan will be terminated at the effective date of such Change in Control, any provisions in this Agreement providing for an extended exercise period shall not apply to such stock option. (ii) If the stock option was granted pursuant to the 1998 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan (the “1998 Plan”) and pursuant to a Change in Control (as defined in the 1998 Plan) substantially all of the stock options outstanding pursuant to the 1998 Plan will be terminated at the effective date of such Change in Control, any provisions in this Agreement providing for an extended exercise period shall not apply to such stock option. (iii) If the stock option was granted pursuant to an equity incentive plan adopted after the date hereof (a “Future Plan”) and, pursuant to the provisions of the Future Plan, substantially all of the stock options outstanding pursuant to the Future Plan will be terminated at the effective date of an event or transaction, any provisions in this Agreement providing for an extended exercise period shall not apply to such stock option.

Extension of Stock Option Exercise Period. You acknowledge that you have requested the Company to extend the Post-Termination Exercise Period of your vested incentive stock options, and understand the tax consequence of such request. In return for your promises in this Agreement, and provided that you sign and return this Agreement and do not revoke it, the Company shall extend the exercise period for any vested employee stock option(s) as of your Separation Date for (12) months for your option grant priced at $5.02, and eighteen (18) months for your option grant priced at $7.89. Because your employment is terminating on the Separation Date, none of your unvested shares can ever vest. Except for the extension to your exercise period as set forth in this Section 3.c. your rights concerning any and all vested options will continue to be governed by the Stock Option Agreements in place between you and Company. I UNDERSTAND THAT TO THE EXTENT ANY OF MY VESTED OPTIONS QUALIFIED AS “INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS,” THE EXTENSION OF THE POSTTERMINATION EXERCISE PERIOD THEREOF (AS DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION 3.c), WILL BE A MODICATION OF SUCH INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS, WILL DISQUALIFY THE OPTIONS AS INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS AND SHALL RESULT IN MY HAVING NON-STATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS. I ALSO AGREE AND UNDERSTAND THAT THIS MEANS THAT WHEN I EXERCISE MY VESTED OPTIONS THAT THE SPREAD BETWEEN THE THEN FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE UNDERLYING SHARES AND THE EXERCISE PRICE OF MY VESTED OPTIONS WILL BE ORDINARY INCOME THAT WILL BE REPORTED TO ME AS WAGES ON MY W-2 FOR THE YEAR IN WHICH THE EXERCISE OCCURS AND THAT I MUST MAKE ARRANGEMENTS SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY FOR THE COLLECTION OF ANY TAX WITHHOLDING AS A RESULT OF THE EXERCISE AND AS A CONDITION TO THE COMPANY HAVING TO RESPECT THE EXERCISE AND DELIVER SHARES TO ME. I UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE COMPANY WILL DETERMINE IN GOOD FAITH WHAT THE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE UNDERLYING SHARES IS AT THE TIME OF EXERCISE AND I AGREE TO ACCEPT THE COMPANY’S DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE AT THAT TIME WITH RESPECT TO THE AMOUNT OF TAX WITHHOLDING THAT IS DUE IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXERCISE.
