3. Exercisability. The Option is immediately exercisable.

4. Expiration. The Option shall expire on the earlier of (i) June 12, 2012, (ii) the thirtieth (30th) calendar day after the Termination Date if the Optionee resigns from the Company without Good Reason or if the Optionee is terminated for Cause by the Company, (iii) one (1) year after the Termination Date if the Optionee’s employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability and (iv) the ninetieth (90th) calendar day after the Termination Date if the Optionee resigns for Good Reason or is terminated by the Company without Cause.

6. Adjustments; Effect of Approved Sale.

(a) If the shares of Series A Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities as the result of any one or more reorganizations, recapitalizations, stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, stock distributions or similar events, an appropriate adjustment shall be made in the number and kind of shares subject to the

Option, and in the Exercise Price for each share subject to the Option. No fractional interests shall be issued on account of any such adjustment unless the Committee specifically determines to the contrary, and the Committee may provide for such customary cash-in-lieu of fractional interests provisions as it deems appropriate.

(b) In the event of an Approved Sale, the Option will be subject to one of the following, as applicable: (i) in the event of an Approved Sale in which the holders of shares of Series A Stock are receiving predominantly cash proceeds, if the definitive agreement governing such Approved Sale so provides, effective as of the consummation of such Approved Sale, the Option shall be automatically cancelled and the Optionee shall be entitled to receive in cash the per share consideration payable to such holders in such Approved Sale less any applicable tax withholding obligations; (ii) in the event of an Approved Sale structured as a stock-for-stock merger, exchange or similar transaction, if the definitive agreement governing such Approved Sale so provides, effective as of the consummation of such Approved Sale, the Option shall automatically be converted into an option to purchase the type of securities into which the shares of Series A Stock are being converted in such Approved Sale, with appropriate adjustments to the per share Exercise Price and number of shares covered thereby based on the exchange ratio in such transaction as determined by the Committee in its discretion (subject to customary provisions for cash-in-lieu of fractional shares as and if determined appropriate by the Committee); or (iii) if neither clause (i) nor clause (ii) of this Section 6(b) is applicable, the Option shall automatically terminate as of the consummation of such Approved Sale provided that the Company has given written notice to the Optionee at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the consummation of such Approved Sale and afforded the Optionee the opportunity to exercise the Option (conditioned on the actual consummation of such Approved Sale) through the close of business on the day immediately preceding the scheduled date of such consummation.

7. Exercise of the Option. Prior to the expiration or termination thereof, the Optionee may exercise the Option from time to time in whole or in part. Upon electing to exercise the Option, the Optionee shall deliver to the Secretary of the Company a written and signed notice of such election setting forth the number of Option Shares the Optionee has elected to purchase and shall at the time of delivery of such notice tender cash or a cashier’s or certified bank check to the order of the Company for the full Exercise Price of such Option Shares and any amount required pursuant to Section 17 hereof; provided that the Optionee may satisfy any amount required pursuant to Section 17 hereof by having the Company withhold an equivalent amount of Option Shares upon exercise. The Committee may, in its discretion, permit payment of the Exercise Price in such other form or in such other manner as may be permissible under the Plan and under any applicable law.

8. Restrictions on Transfers of Shares Issuable Upon Exercise. Subject to Section 9 hereof, prior to the earlier of (A) one hundred eighty (180) days following an Initial Public Offering or (B) an Approved Sale, the Option Shares shall not be transferable or transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) except that the Optionee may transfer the Option Shares (i) to a Permitted Transferee, as defined in Section 5, or (ii) as provided for in Sections 4 and 5 of the Certificate of Incorporation. This Agreement shall be binding on and enforceable against any person who is a Permitted Transferee of the Option Shares except a person who acquires the Option Shares pursuant to Section 4 or 5

of the Certificate of Incorporation or as part of the Initial Public Offering. The stock certificates issued to evidence Option Shares upon exercise of the Option hereunder shall bear a legend referring to this Agreement and the restrictions contained herein.

9. Repurchase of Option Shares.

(a) In the event that Optionee ceases to be employed by the Company for any reason prior to an Initial Public Offering or Approved Sale, the Company, during the sixty (60) calendar days following the Termination Date (the “Repurchase Period”), shall, subject to Section 9(d), have the right to purchase all or any portion of the Option Shares (the “Repurchase Right”). The purchase price for each Option Share purchased under this Section 9(a) shall equal Fair Market Value. If the Company elects to purchase some or all of the Option Shares, it shall notify Optionee, and any Permitted Transferee thereof that then holds Option Shares, at or before the end of the Repurchase Period of such election and the purchase price shall for the Option Shares to be purchased shall be paid in cash to the Optionee, and/or his or her Permitted Transferee or Permitted Transferees, as the case may be, at a time set by the Company within thirty (30) calendar days after the end of the Repurchase Period, provided that Optionee, and any Permitted Transferee thereof that then holds Option Shares, has presented to the Company a stock certificate or certificates evidencing the Option Shares to be purchased (or an affidavit of loss with respect thereto) duly endorsed for transfer. If Optionee fails to deliver such stock certificate or certificates (or an affidavit of loss with respect thereto) duly endorsed for transfer, the Option Shares represented thereby shall be deemed to have been purchased upon (i) the payment by the Company of the purchase price for the purchased Option Shares to Optionee or his or her Permitted Transferee or Permitted Transferees or (ii) notice to Optionee or such Permitted Transferee or Permitted Transferees that the Company is holding the purchase price for the purchased Option Shares for the account of Optionee, and/or his Permitted Transferee or Permitted Transferees, as the case may be, and upon such payment or notice, Optionee, and/or his or her Permitted Transferee or Permitted Transferees, as the case may be, will have no further rights in or to such Option Shares. The Company may assign its rights under this Section 9(a) to ATDH or an affiliate of the Company. If Option Shares have been transferred by Optionee to a Permitted Transferee, any Option Shares purchased under this Section 9(a) shall be purchased from Optionee and any such Permitted Transferee on a pro rata basis. If, after Optionee’s termination, the Option Shares are not purchased pursuant to this Section 9(a), the restrictions on transfer thereof contained in this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect.

(b) The Fair Market Value of Option Shares to be purchased hereunder by the Company, ATDH or an affiliate of the Company, as the case may be, shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors as of the Termination Date, unless and to the extent Section 9(d) applies, in which case the determination will be as of the date of exercise of the Repurchase Right. The Fair Market Value shall be based on an assumed sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company (without reduction for minority interest, lack of voting rights or lack of liquidity of the Option Shares) and derived from reasonable and customary valuation methodology. If such determination of the Fair Market Value is challenged by the Optionee, a mutually acceptable investment banker or appraiser shall establish the Fair Market Value as of the date of valuation referenced by the Board of Directors. The investment banker’s or appraiser’s determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Optionee. Upon request by the Optionee, the Company shall make available to the Optionee a description

of the methodology employed by the investment banker or appraiser in making the determination of Fair Market Value, which description shall include, to the extent relevant, a listing of companies used in comparing market and transaction valuations, the range of multiples applied, and the terminal valuation, discount factor and multiples used in any discounted cash flow analysis. The Company shall bear all costs incurred in connection with the services of such investment banker or appraiser unless (i) the Fair Market Value established by such investment banker or appraiser is less than or equal to 120% but more than 110% of the determination challenged by the Optionee, in which case the Optionee shall promptly pay or reimburse the Company fifty percent (50%) for such costs, or (ii) the Fair Market Value established by such investment banker or appraiser is equal to or less than 110% of the determination challenged by the Optionee, in which case the Optionee shall promptly pay or reimburse the Company for one hundred percent (100%) of such costs. If the Optionee and the Company cannot agree upon an investment banker or appraiser, they shall each choose an investment banker or appraiser and the two shall choose a third investment banker or appraiser who shall establish the Fair Market Value.

(c) The Optionee shall not be considered to have ceased to be employed by the Company for purposes of this Agreement if the Optionee continues to be employed by the Company or an affiliate thereof.

(d) In the event that (i) on the Termination Date, Optionee owns Option Shares that have not been owned by the Optionee for a period of at least six (6) months, and/or (ii) following the Termination Date, the Optionee exercises any then outstanding Option pursuant to this Agreement, with respect to all such Option Shares, the Repurchase Period will not commence on the Termination Date but rather will commence on the first date on which all such Option Shares have been owned by Optionee for six (6) months and a day.

10. Lock-Up Arrangements. If requested in writing by the underwriters for an underwritten public offering of common stock of the Company, each Optionee who is a party to this Agreement shall agree not to sell or transfer any Option Shares (other than Option Shares being registered in such offering) without the consent of such underwriters for a period of at least (a) one hundred eighty (180) calendar days following the effective date of the registration statement relating to the Initial Public Offering, and (b) ninety (90) calendar days following the effective date of the registration statement relating to any other underwritten public offering.

11. Compliance with Legal Requirements.

(a) No Option Shares shall be issued or transferred pursuant to this Agreement unless and until all legal requirements applicable to such issuance or transfer have, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, been satisfied. Such requirements may include, but are not limited to, registering or qualifying such Option Shares under any state or federal law, satisfying any applicable law relating to the transfer of unregistered securities or demonstrating the availability of an exemption from applicable laws, placing a legend on the Option Shares to the effect that they were issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and may not be transferred other than in reliance upon Rule 144 or Rule 701 promulgated under the Act, if available, or upon another exemption from the Act, or obtaining the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body.

(b) The Optionee understands that the Company intends for the offering and sale of Option Shares to be effected in reliance upon Rule 701 or another available exemption from registration under the Act, and that the Company is under no obligation to register for resale the Option Shares issued upon exercise of the Option. In connection with any issuance or transfer of Option Shares, the person acquiring the Option Shares shall, if requested by the Company, provide information and assurances satisfactory to counsel to the Company with respect to such matters as the Company reasonably may deem desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal requirements.

12. Subject to Certificate of Incorporation. The Optionee acknowledges that the Option Shares are subject to the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation.

13. No Interest in Shares Subject to Option. Neither the Optionee nor any beneficiary or other person claiming under or through the Optionee shall have any right, title, interest or privilege in or to any shares of stock allocated or reserved pursuant to the Plan or subject to this Agreement except as to such Option Shares, if any, as shall have been issued to such person upon a valid exercise of an Option or any part thereof.

14. Plan Controls. The Option hereby granted is subject to, and the Company and the Optionee agree to be bound by, all of the terms and conditions of the Plan as the same may be amended from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof; provided that, no such amendment shall be effective as to the Option without the Optionee’s consent insofar as it adversely affects the Optionee’s material rights under this Agreement, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld by the Optionee; and provided further that, the Participant Committee shall not have the authority to approve any amendment to this Agreement or waive any provision hereof without the Optionee’s consent.

15. Not an Employment Contract. Nothing in the Plan, this Agreement or any other instrument executed pursuant hereto or thereto shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or shall affect the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of the Optionee with or without Cause.

16. Governing Law. All terms of and rights under this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

17. Taxes. The Committee may, in its discretion, make such provisions and take such steps as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of all federal, state, local and other taxes required to be withheld with respect to the issuance or exercise of the Option including, but not limited to, deducting the amount of any such withholding taxes from any other amount then or thereafter payable to the Optionee, requiring the Optionee to pay to the Company the amount required to be withheld or to execute such documents as the Committee deems necessary or desirable to enable it to satisfy the Company’s withholding obligations, or by any other means provided in the Plan.
