Options (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) below with respect to the Company's 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (the "Company ESPP"), at the Effective Time, each then outstanding and unexercised option (the "Company Options") exercisable for shares of Company Stock shall become fully vested and exercisable (by virtue of their terms) and Purchaser shall cause each holder of a Company Option to receive, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, options exercisable for shares of Purchaser Stock ("Purchaser Replacement Options") having the same terms and conditions as the Company Options (including such terms and conditions as may be incorporated by reference into the agreements evidencing the Company Options pursuant to the plans or arrangements pursuant to which such Company Options were granted) except that the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise shall be divided and multiplied, respectively, by the Conversion Fraction, and rounded to the nearest whole cent or number, respectively. Purchaser shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that any Company Options that qualified as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") prior to the Effective Time continue to so qualify after the Effective Time. Purchaser shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Purchaser Stock for delivery upon the exercise of Purchaser Replacement Options after the Effective Time. Promptly after the Effective Time, Purchaser shall file or cause to be filed all registration statements on Form S-8 or other appropriate form as may be necessary in connection with the purchase and sale of Purchaser Stock contemplated by such Purchaser Replacement Options subsequent to the Effective Time, and shall maintain the effectiveness of such registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as any of the Purchaser Replacement Options registered thereunder remain outstanding. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Purchaser shall qualify under applicable state securities laws the issuance of such shares of Purchaser Stock issuable upon exercise of Purchaser Replacement Options. Purchaser's Board of Directors shall take all actions necessary on the part of Purchaser to enable the acquisition of Purchaser Stock, Purchaser Replacement Options and subsequent transactions in Purchaser Stock after the Effective Time pursuant to Purchaser Replacement Options by persons subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act (as defined below) to be exempt from the application of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act, to the extent permitted thereunder.
(b) The current offerings in process as of the date of this Agreement under the Company ESPP shall continue, and Company Shares shall be issued to participants thereunder on the next currently scheduled purchase dates thereunder occurring after the date hereof as provided under, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Company ESPP. The Company may, consistent with past practice, commence new offering periods under the Company ESPP on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time at an exercise price for each such offering not less than as is required under the Company ESPP. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, pursuant to the Company ESPP, all offerings under the Company ESPP shall be terminated, and each participant shall be deemed to have purchased immediately prior to the Effective Time, to the extent of payroll deductions accumulated by such participant as of such offering period end, the number of whole shares of Company Stock at a per share price determined pursuant to the provisions of the Company ESPP, and each participant shall receive a cash payment equal to the balance, if any, of such accumulated payroll deductions remaining after such purchase of such shares. As of the Effective Time, each participant shall receive, by virtue of the Merger, the number of whole shares of Purchaser Stock or cash into which the shares of Company Stock such participant has so purchased under the Company ESPP have been converted pursuant to the Merger as provided in Section 1.3(a) hereof, plus the cash value of any fraction of a share of Purchaser Common Stock as provided in Section 1.5(h) hereof, plus any dividends or distributions as provided in Section 1.
Futures and Options If, pursuant to an Instruction, the Custodian shall become a party to an agreement with the Fund and a futures commission merchant regarding margin (Tri-Party Agreement), the Custodian shall (a) receive and retain, to the extent the same are provided to the Custodian, confirmations or other documents evidencing the purchase or sale by the Fund of exchange-traded futures contracts and commodity options, (b) when required by such Tri-Party Agreement, deposit and maintain in an account opened pursuant to such Agreement (Margin Account), segregated either physically or by book-entry in a Securities Depository for the benefit of any futures commission merchant, such Investments as the Fund shall have designated as initial, maintenance or variation "margin" deposits or other collateral intended to secure the Fund's performance of its obligations under the terms of any exchange-traded futures contracts and commodity options; and (c) thereafter pay, release or transfer Investments into or out of the Margin Account in accordance with the provisions of the such Agreement. Alternatively, the Custodian may deliver Investments, in accordance with an Instruction, to a futures commission merchant for purposes of margin requirements in accordance with Rule 17f-6. The Custodian shall in no event be responsible for but shall give prompt notice to the Fund in the event it becomes aware of the acts and omissions of any futures commission merchant to whom Investments are delivered pursuant to this Section; for the sufficiency of Investments held in any Margin Account; or, for the performance of any terms of any exchange-traded futures contracts and commodity options.

Multiple Options In the event that Lessee has any multiple Options to extend or renew this Lease, a later Option cannot be exercised unless the prior Options have been validly exercised.
Company Stock Options At the Effective Time, each Company Stock --------------------- Option shall be deemed to have been assumed by Evergreen, without further action by Evergreen, and shall thereafter be deemed an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Company Stock Option, that number of shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock that would have been received in respect of such Company Stock Option if it had been exercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (such Company Stock Options assumed by Evergreen, the "Assumed Chancellor Stock Options"); provided, however, that, for -------- ------- each optionholder, (i) the aggregate fair market value of Surviving Corporation Common Stock subject to Assumed Chancellor Stock Options immediately after the Effective Time shall not exceed the aggregate exercise price thereof by more than the excess of the aggregate fair market value of Company Common Stock subject to Company Stock Options immediately before the Effective Time over the aggregate exercise price thereof and (ii) on a share-by-share comparison, the ratio of the exercise price of the Assumed Chancellor Stock Option to the fair market value of the Surviving Corporation Common Stock immediately after the Effective Time is no more favorable to the optionholder than the ratio of the exercise price of the Company Stock Option to the fair market value of the Company Common Stock immediately before the Effective Time; and provided, -------- further, that no fractional shares shall be issued on the exercise of such ------- Assumed Chancellor Stock Option and, in lieu thereof, the holder of such Assumed Chancellor Stock Option shall only be entitled to a cash payment in the amount of such fraction multiplied by the closing price per share of Surviving Corporation Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market on the business day immediately prior to the date of such exercise.
