Treatment of Options. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each option to purchase Shares (each, a “Company Option”) under any stock option or other equity or equity-based plan of the Company, including the 2007 Equity and Incentive Plan, as amended and restated effective as of June 11, 2013 (the “Company Equity Plans”), that is unexpired and unexercised and vested immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Vested Company Option”) (or portion thereof), shall be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each former holder of any such cancelled Vested Company Option shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such Vested Company Option and in settlement therefor, a payment in cash (subject to any applicable withholding or other Taxes required by applicable Law) of an amount equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares subject to such Vested Company Option immediately prior to such cancellation and (ii) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per Share subject to such Vested Company Option immediately prior to such cancellation (such amounts payable hereunder being referred to as the “Option Payments”). No holder of a Vested Company Option that, as of immediately prior to such cancellation, has an exercise price per Share that is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to any payment with respect to such cancelled Vested Company Option. From and after the Effective Time, each Vested Company Option shall no longer be exercisable by the former holder thereof, but shall only entitle such holder to the payment of the Option Payment, if any.

Treatment of Options. (A) If upon termination of his employment pursuant to Section 6(f)(1) Executive holds any options (the “Options”) with respect to the common stock (the “Common Stock”) of the Company, which are not then exercisable, said Options shall immediately vest upon termination. All such Options shall remain outstanding and exercisable for the remainder of the full term thereof (i.e. the term of said Option shall not be shortened as a result of any change in control provisions or other adjustment provisions contained in the Option agreement or the plan under which the Options were issued).
(B) If Executive holds Options and (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of the Options, Executive shall have the right to receive, for each share of Common Stock underlying the Option that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Option is exercisable immediately prior to such event. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then Executive shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of the Option following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to Executive a new option consistent with the foregoing provisions a...

(c) Immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cause each outstanding Company Option, whether or not then fully vested or exercisable, to be deemed fully vested and exercisable, and to be terminated and converted into the right to receive from the Surviving Corporation an amount of cash equal to the product of (i) the number of Common Shares subject to the Company Option (which shall have been deemed to be fully vested and exercisable) and (ii) the excess, if any, of the Cash Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of such Company Option (the "Option Consideration"), with no payment being required when the difference is not a positive number. The Surviving Corporation shall pay each holder of the Company Options, promptly following the Effective Time, the Option Consideration for all Company Options held by such holder. The Board or any committee thereof responsible for the administration of the Company's Amended and Restated 1993 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Stock Incentive Plan") shall take any and all action necessary to effectuate the matters described in this Section 1.10 on or before the Effective Time.

Treatment of Options. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) shall adopt appropriate resolutions and take all other actions necessary and appropriate to provide that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, (i) the vesting and exercisability of each then unexpired and unexercised option or similar rights to purchase Company Common Stock (the “Company Options”), granted under any stock option plan of the Company, including the Clarient, Inc. 2007 Incentive Award Plan, the Chromavision Medical Systems, Inc. 1996 Equity Compensation Plan, as amended from time to time, or any other plan, agreement or arrangement (collectively, the “Company Stock Plans”), held by any Person who is, to the extent required by the terms of the applicable Company Stock Plan or award agreement, then performing services as an employee, director or consultant of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be fully accelerated, (ii) each Company Option with an exercise price per share of Company Common Stock that is greater than or equal to the Common Offer Price, without regard to the identity of the holder, shall be cancelled and terminated, and (iii) each Company Option with an exercise price per share of Company Common Stock that is less than the Common Offer Price, without regard to the identity of the holder, shall be deemed exercised and, at the Effective Time, shall be terminated and converted into the right to receive an amount (subject to any applicable withholding or other Taxes required by applicable Law to be withheld in accordance with Section 2.2(e)) equal to the product of (A) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock deemed to be issued upon the deemed exercise of such Company Option and (B) the excess, if any, of the Common Consideration over the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock previously subject to such Company Option (such amounts payable hereunder being referred to as the “Option Payments”). From and after the Effective Time, any such deemed exercised Company Option shall only entitle such holder to the payment of the Option Payments. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall take all necessary action under the Company Stock Plans and the stock option agreements evidencing the Company Options (including, to the extent necessary, obtaining consent of the holders of the Company Options) to effectuate the actions contemplated by this Section 2.4(a).

(b) At the Closing, the following events shall occur:
(i) the Company shall pay a portion of the Net Proceeds, if any, to the Option Holders in the amounts set forth on Schedule 2.3 hereto under the heading “Closing Date Payments” through its normal payroll processing procedures and subject to all applicable payroll and withholding taxes required by applicable Tax Law to be withheld; and
