Stock Available for Awards. 4.1 Subject to adjustment under Section 6, Awards may be made under the Plan for up to such number of ordinary shares in the capital of the Company (“Shares”) which, subject to waiver by the shareholders of the Company, equate to 14.6 percent of the Fully Diluted Share Capital (the “Aggregate Share Limit”). “Fully Diluted Share Capital” shall mean the ordinary share capital of the Company on an “as converted” basis being the number of Shares in issue if all outstanding options, warrants and other rights to subscribe for or to convert into Shares at the relevant date had been exercised in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Aggregate Share Limit shall immediately and automatically and without any further action by the Company’s shareholders or the Board, revert to 14.6 percent of the Fully Diluted Share Capital on such date or event as may be established by the Company’s shareholders in any waiver. Subject to adjustment under Section 6, no more than 7,000,000 Shares may be used for Incentive Stock Options (as defined at Section 5.2(a) below). If any Award expires or is terminated, surrendered or cancelled without having been fully exercised or is forfeited in whole or in part (including as the result of shares in the capital of the Company being repurchased by the Company at the original issuance price pursuant to a contractual repurchase right) or results in any such shares not being issued, the unused shares covered by such an Award shall again be available for the grant of Awards under the Plan. Further, shares in the capital of the Company tendered to the Company by a Participant to exercise an Award shall be added to the number of shares available for the grant of Awards under the Plan. However, in the case of Incentive Stock Options (as hereinafter defined), the foregoing provisions shall be subject to any limitations under the Code. Shares issued under the Plan may consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares.
