Nonstatutory Stock Option Terms And Conditions
1. Plan Incorporated by Reference. This Option is issued pursuant to the
------------------------------
terms of the Plan and may be amended as provided in the Plan. Capitalized terms
used and not otherwise defined in this certificate have the meanings given to
them in the Plan. This certificate does not set forth all of the terms and
conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference. The
Committee administers the Plan and its determinations regarding the operation of
the Plan are final and binding. Copies of the Plan may be obtained upon written
request without charge from the Corporate Counsel of the Company.
2. Option Price. The price to be paid for each share of Common Stock
------------
issued upon exercise of the whole or any part of this Option is the Option Price
set forth on the face of this certificate.
3. Exercisability Schedule. This Option may be exercised at any time and
-----------------------
from time to time for the number of shares and in accordance with the
exercisability schedule set forth on the face of this certificate, but only for
the purchase of whole shares. This Option may not be exercised as to any shares
after the Expiration Date.
4. Method of Exercise. To exercise this Option, the Optionholder shall
------------------
deliver written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of
shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised accompanied by
payment of the Option Price for such shares in cash, by certified check or in
such other form, including shares of Common Stock of the Company valued at their
Fair Market Value on the date of delivery or a payment commitment of a financial
or brokerage institution, as the Committee may approve. Promptly following such
notice, the Company will deliver to the Optionholder a certificate representing
the number of shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised.
5. No Right To Employment. No person shall have any claim or right to be
----------------------
granted an Option. Each employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates is an
employee-at-will (that is to say that either the Participant or the Company or
any Affiliate may terminate the employment relationship at any time for any
reason or no reason at all) unless, and only to the extent, provided in a
written employment agreement for a specified term executed by the chief
executive officer of the Company or his duly authorized designee or the
authorized signatory of any Affiliate. Neither the adoption, maintenance, nor
operation of the Plan nor any Option hereunder shall confer upon any employee of
the Company or of any Affiliate any right with respect to the continuance of
his/her employment by the Company or any such Affiliate nor shall they interfere
with the right of the Company (or Affiliate) to terminate any employee at any
time or otherwise change the terms of employment, including, without limitation,
the right to promote, demote or otherwise re-assign any employee from one
position to another within the Company or any Affiliate.
6. Effect of Grant. Participant shall not earn any Options granted
---------------
hereunder until such time as all the conditions put forth herein and in the Plan
which are required to be met in order to exercise the Option have been fully
satisfied.
7. Recapitalization, Mergers, Etc. As provided in the Plan, in the event
------------------------------
of corporate transactions affecting the Company's outstanding Common Stock, the
number and kind of shares subject to this Option and the exercise price
hereunder shall be equitably adjusted. If such transaction involves a
consolidation or merger of the Company with another entity, the sale or exchange
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or a reorganization or
liquidation of the Company, then in lieu of the foregoing, the Committee may
upon written notice to the Optionholder provide that this Option shall terminate
on a date not less than 20 days after the date of such notice unless theretofore
exercised. In connection with such notice, the Committee may in its discretion
accelerate or waive any deferred exercise period.
8. Option Not Transferable. This Option is not transferable by the
-----------------------
Optionholder otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and
is exercisable, during the Optionholder's lifetime, only by the Optionholder.
The naming of a Designated Beneficiary does not constitute a transfer.
9. Termination of Employment or Engagement. If the Optionholder's status
---------------------------------------
as an employee or consultant of (a) the Company, (b) an Affiliate, or (c) a
corporation (or parent or subsidiary corporation of such corporation) issuing or
assuming a stock option in a transaction to which section 424(a) of the Code
applies, is terminated for any reason (voluntary or involuntary) and the period
of exercisability for a particular Option following such termination has not
been specified by the Board, each such Option then held by that Participant
shall expire to the extent not previously exercised ten (10) calendar days after
such Participant's employment or engagement is terminated, except that -
------ ----
(a) If the Participant is on military, sick leave or other bona fide
---- ----
leave of absence (such as temporary employment by the federal government), his
or her employment or engagement with the Company will be treated as continuing
intact if the period of such leave does not exceed ninety (90) days, or, if
longer, so long as the Participant's right to reemployment or the survival of
his or her service arrangement with the Company is guaranteed either by statute
or by contract; otherwise, the Participant's employment or engagement will be
deemed to have terminated on the 91st day of such leave.
(b) If the Participant's employment is terminated by reason of his
or her retirement from the Company at normal retirement age, each Option then
held by the Participant, to the extent exercisable at retirement, may be
exercised by the Participant at any time within three (3) months after such
retirement unless terminated earlier by its terms.
(c) If the Participant's employment or engagement is terminated by
reason of his or her death, each Option then held by the Participant, to the
extent exercisable at the date of death, may be exercised at any time within one
year after that date (unless terminated earlier by its terms) by the person(s)
to whom the Participant's option rights pass by will or by the applicable laws
of descent and distribution.
(d) If the Participant's employment or engagement is terminated by
reason of his or her becoming permanently and totally disabled, each Option then
held by the Participant, to the extent exercisable upon the occurrence of
permanent and total disability, may be exercised by the Participant at any time
within one (1) year after such occurrence unless terminated earlier by its
terms. For purposes hereof, an individual shall be deemed to be "permanently and
totally disabled" if he or she is unable to engage in any substantial gainful
activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment
which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected
to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months. Any
determination of permanent and total disability shall be made in good faith by
the Company on the basis of a report signed by a qualified physician.
10. Compliance with Securities Laws. It shall be a condition to the
-------------------------------
Optionholder's right to purchase shares of Common Stock hereunder that the
Company may, in its discretion, require (a) that the shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance upon the exercise of this Option shall have been duly
listed, upon official notice of issuance, upon any national securities exchange
or automated quotation system on which the Company's Common Stock may then be
listed or quoted, (b) that either (i) a registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the shares shall be in effect, or (ii) in
the opinion of counsel for the Company, the proposed purchase shall be exempt
from registration under that Act and the Optionholder shall have made such
undertakings and agreements with the Company as the Company may reasonably
require, and (c) that such other steps, if any, as counsel for the Company shall
consider necessary to comply with any law applicable to the issue of such shares
by the Company shall have been taken by the Company or the Optionholder, or
both. The certificates representing the shares purchased under this Option may
contain such legends as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to
comply with any applicable law.
11. Payment of Taxes. The Optionholder shall pay to the Company, or
----------------
make provision satisfactory to the Company for payment of, any taxes required by
law to be withheld with respect to the exercise of this Option. The Committee
may, in its discretion, require any other Federal or state taxes imposed on the
sale of the shares to be paid by the Optionholder. In the Committee's
discretion, such tax obligations may be paid in whole or in part in shares of
Common Stock, including shares retained from the exercise of this Option, valued
at their Fair Market Value on the date of delivery. The Company and its
Affiliates may, to the extent permitted by law, deduct any such tax obligations
from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Optionholder.
