EXHIBIT
A
TERMS
AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT
1. Grant.
The
Company hereby grants to the Participant named in the Notice of
Grant attached
as Part I of this Award Agreement
(the “Participant”) under the Plan an Award of Restricted Stock Units, subject
to all of the terms and conditions in this Award Agreement
and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. Subject to Section
19(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions
of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement,
the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail.
2. Company’s
Obligation to Pay.
Each
Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive a Share on the date it
vests. Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units will have vested in the
manner set forth in Section 3, Participant will have no right to payment of
any such Restricted Stock Units. Prior to actual payment of any vested
Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Unit will represent an unsecured
obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets
of
the Company. Any Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance with Sections
3
or 4 will be paid to Participant (or in the event of Participant’s death, to his
or her estate) in whole Shares, subject to Participant satisfying any applicable
tax withholding obligations as set forth in Section 7. Subject to the provisions
of Section 4, such vested Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares
as
soon
as practicable after vesting, but in each such case within the period ending
no
later than the date that is two and one-half (2½) months from the end of the
Company’s tax year that includes the vesting date.
3. Vesting
Schedule.
Except
as provided in Section 4, and subject to Section 5, the Restricted Stock Units
awarded by this Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting
provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant attached as Part I of this Award
Agreement. Restricted Stock Units scheduled
to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will
not
vest in Participant in accordance with any of the provisions of this
Award Agreement,
unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the
Date
of Grant until the date such vesting occurs.
4. Administrator
Discretion.
The
Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance,
or
some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Restricted Stock Units
at
any time, subject to the terms of the Plan. If so accelerated, such Restricted
Stock Units will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by
the
Administrator.
Notwithstanding
anything in the Plan or this Award Agreement to the contrary, if the
vesting
of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock
Units is accelerated in connection with Participant’s termination as
a Service Provider (provided
that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of
Section 409A, as determined by the Company),
other
than due to death,
and
if
(x) Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at
the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (y) the payment of such
accelerated Restricted Stock Units will result in the imposition of additional
tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month
period following Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, then the
payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will not be made until the
date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s
termination as a Service Provider,
unless the Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service
Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares
to
the Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or her
death.
It
is the
intent of this Award
Agreement
to comply with the requirements of Section 409A
so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under this Award Agreement
or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed
under Section 409A,
and any
ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply.
For
purposes of this Award
Agreement,
“Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code, and any
proposed, temporary or final Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service
guidance thereunder,
as each
may be amended from time to time.
-3-
5. Forfeiture
upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, the balance
of
the Restricted Stock Units that have not vested as of the time of Participant’s
termination as a Service Provider for any or no reason and Participant’s right
to acquire any Shares hereunder will immediately terminate.
6. Death
of Participant.
Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award
Agreement
will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated
beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or
executor of Participant’s estate. Any such transferee must furnish the Company
with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and
(b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the
transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said
transfer.
7. Withholding
of Taxes.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement,
no certificate representing the Shares will be issued to Participant, unless
and
until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have
been made by Participant with respect to the payment of income, employment
and
other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such
Shares. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such
procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit Participant to
satisfy such tax withholding obligation, in whole or in part (without
limitation) by (a) paying cash, (b) electing to have the Company
withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the
minimum amount required to be withheld, (c) delivering to the Company
already vested and owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount
required to be withheld, or (d) selling a sufficient number of such Shares
otherwise deliverable to Participant through such means as the Company may
determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal
to the amount required to be withheld. To
the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it will
have
the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any tax withholding obligations
by
reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant. If
Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any
required tax withholding obligations hereunder at the time any applicable
Restricted Stock Units otherwise are scheduled to vest pursuant to Sections
3 or
4, Participant will permanently forfeit such Restricted Stock Units and any
right to receive Shares thereunder and the Restricted Stock Units will be
returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.
8. Rights
as Stockholder.
Neither
Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have
any
of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any
Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such
Shares will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its
transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant. After such
issuance, recordation and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of
a
stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of
dividends and distributions on such Shares.

9. No
Guarantee of Continued Service.
PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK
UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING
AS A
SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (OR THE PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY
EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT) AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED,
BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS OR ACQUIRING SHARES
HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AWARD
AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE
SET
FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED
ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR
AT
ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF
THE COMPANY (OR THE PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT)
TO
TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR
WITHOUT CAUSE.
10. Address
for Notices.
Any
notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Award Agreement will
be addressed to the Company, in care of its Legal Services at SourceForge,
Inc.,
000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, 00000, or at such
other
address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing.
11. Grant
is Not Transferable.
Except
to the limited extent provided in Section 6, this grant and the rights and
privileges conferred hereby will not be transferred, assigned, pledged or
hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will
not
be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any
attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this
grant, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale
under any execution, attachment or similar process, this grant and the rights
and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and
void.
12. Binding
Agreement.
Subject
to the limitation on the transferability of this grant contained herein, this
Award Agreement
will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal
representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
13. Additional
Conditions to Issuance of Stock.
If at
any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing,
registration or qualification of the Shares upon any securities exchange or
under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental
regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance
of
Shares to Participant (or his or her estate), such issuance will not occur
unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval
will have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to
the
Company. Where
the Company determines that the delivery of the payment of any Shares will
violate federal securities laws or other applicable laws, the Company will
defer
delivery until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates
that the delivery of Shares will no longer cause such violation. The
Company will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any such
state or federal law or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent
or
approval of any such governmental authority.

and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application
of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such
rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any
Restricted Stock Units have vested). All actions taken and all interpretations
and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and
binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons. No
member of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action,

or
this Award Agreement.
16. Electronic
