Stock Option Plan The Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Company's Stock Option Plan in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof.
Incentive Stock Options If the Shares are held for more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer of the Shares pursuant to the exercise of an ISO and are disposed of more than two (2) years after the Date of Grant, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will be treated as long term capital gain for federal and California income tax purposes. If Shares purchased under an ISO are disposed of within the applicable one (1) year or two (2) year period, any gain realized on such disposition will be treated as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income rates) to the extent of the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price.
Company Stock Options (a) At the Effective Time, Parent shall assume, by virtue of this Agreement and without any further action on the part of the Company, all of the Company's obligations with respect to each outstanding Company Stock Option, whether vested or unvested. Unless otherwise elected by Parent prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall make such assumption in such manner that Parent (i) is a corporation "assuming a stock option in a transaction to which Section 424(a) applies" within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code or (ii) to the extent that Section 424 of the Code does not apply to such Company Stock Option, would be such a corporation were Section 424 of the Code applicable to such Company Stock Option; and, if not so otherwise elected, after the Effective Time, all references to the Company in the Company Stock Plans and the applicable Company Stock Option agreements shall be deemed to refer to Parent, which shall have assumed the Company Stock Plans as of the Effective Time by virtue of this Agreement and without any further action on the part of the Company or Parent. Each Company Stock Option so assumed by Parent under this Agreement shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Company Stock Plan and the applicable Company Stock Option as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except as otherwise provided in Section 3.05. Parent shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that Company Stock Options intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code prior to the Effective Time continue to so qualify after the Effective Time. (b) With respect to the Company Stock Plans, Parent shall take all corporate action necessary or appropriate to, as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, file a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate form) with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to such plan to the extent such registration statement is required under applicable law in order for such shares of Parent Common Stock to be sold without restriction, and Parent shall use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectuses contained therein) for so long as such benefits and grants remain payable and such options under such plans remain outstanding.

Restricted Stock Awards (i) The restricted shares of common stock of the Company awarded under this paragraph (c) (collectively, the “Restricted Shares”) shall be awarded pursuant to and, to the extent not expressly inconsistent herewith, governed by the Company stock option and incentive compensation plan as in effect as the effective date of the respective award (the “Stock Plan”). All grants described in this paragraph (c) shall be conditioned upon the approval of the shareholders of the Company at the annual shareholders’ meeting in 2008 of (A) an increase in the maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to awards under the Stock Plan, or (B) a new or amended plan authorizing grants of restricted shares of the Company. The number of Restricted Shares shall be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Stock Plan for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like. Until and only to the extent the Restricted Shares shall vest as provided herein, all stock certificates evidencing the Restricted Shares owned by Employee shall be held by the Company for the benefit of Employee. As and to the extent any Restricted Shares shall vest as provided herein, the Company will promptly deliver certificates representing such vested shares to Employee. (ii) Provided Employee shall continue to be employed hereunder, effective on July 15, 2008, the Company shall award to Employee 5,000 restricted shares of common stock of the Company. The restricted shares awarded as provided in the preceding sentence shall be referred to as the “Fixed Restricted Shares.” The Fixed Restricted Shares shall be subject to vesting as provided below. Provided Employee shall continue to be employed hereunder, one-fourth (1/4) of the Fixed Restricted Shares shall vest on June 1, 2009, an additional one-fourth (1/4) of the Fixed Restricted Shares shall vest on June 1, 2010, an additional one-fourth (1/4) of the Fixed Restricted Shares shall vest on June 1, 2011, and the final one-fourth (1/4) of the Fixed Restricted Shares shall vest on June 1, 2012. (iii) Provided Employee shall continue to be employed hereunder, and further provided that the applicable Annual Performance Award Test (as defined below) has been satisfied, on the Performance Award Date (as defined below) each year during the Term, commencing in 2009, the Company shall award to Employee that number of shares of common stock of the Company as is equal to $100,000 divided by the Performance Award Price (as defined below), with any fractional share resulting therefrom being rounded up to one whole share if 0.5 or more and eliminated if less than 0.5. For each year, the “Performance Award Date” shall be that date the Company files its Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the immediately preceding calendar year. Satisfaction of the “Annual Performance Award Test” shall be determined as of each Performance Award Date and measured based upon the Company Net Income for the immediately preceding calendar year. The Annual Performance Award Test shall be satisfied for a calendar year if (A) the Annual Net Income Target for the calendar year being measured is at least ten percent (10%) higher than the actual Company Net Income for the immediately preceding calendar year, and (B) the actual Company Net Income for the calendar year being measured equals or exceeds ninety-five percent (95%) of the Annual Net Income Target for the calendar year being measured. The “Performance Award Price” shall be equal to the closing sale price of Company common stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market on the respective Performance Award Date (or if the respective Performance Award Date is not a trading date for the Company common stock, on the immediately preceding trading date). Any Restricted Shares awarded pursuant to this subparagraph (iii) shall be immediately vested in full on the respective date such shares are awarded. (iv) Notwithstanding any provision in this paragraph (c) to the contrary, all of the Restricted Shares that have not been previously vested shall immediately vest if Employee shall continue to be employed hereunder and (A) Employee shall die, (B) Employee shall be subject to a “permanent disability” as described in Section 4(b) hereof, or (C) a Change of Control (as defined below) has occurred with respect to the Company. A “Change of Control” for purposes of this subparagraph (iv) shall have the same meaning as that term is given in the Stock Plan.
