Under the Company’s 200[5][6] Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), to which Committee authority has been delegated by the Board in accordance with Section 3(b) of the Plan, has authorized the grant of the award evidenced by this Agreement (the “Award”) pursuant to Section 7 of the Plan.

AWARD

In accordance with the Plan, the Company has made this Award, effective as of the Grant Date and upon the following terms and conditions:

1. Additional Defined Terms. The following terms as used in this Award shall have the following meanings:

“Common Stock” shall mean the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share.

“Change in Control” shall mean any of the following events:

(i) the acquisition by any person (as such term is defined in Section 13(c) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”)), other than (i) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities of the Company under an employee benefit plan of the Company or (ii) an entity in which the Company directly or indirectly beneficially owns 50% or more of the voting securities of such entity (an “Affiliate”), of any securities of the Company, immediately after which such Person has beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the 0000 Xxx) of more than fifty percent (50%) of (i) the outstanding shares of Common Stock or (ii) the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;

(ii) the Company is a party to a merger or consolidation with a person other than an Affiliate which results in the holders of voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately before such merger or consolidation failing to continue to represent (either by remaining outstanding or being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation;

(iii) all or substantially all of the assets of the Company are, in any transaction or series of transactions, sold or otherwise disposed of (other than to an Affiliate); or

(iv) the following individuals cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the number of directors then serving: individuals who, on the date of this Agreement, constitute the Board and any new director (other than a director whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest, including but not limited to a consent solicitation, relating to the election of directors of the Company) whose appointment or election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved or recommended by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were directors on the date of this Agreement or whose appointment, election or nomination for election was previously so approved or recommended;

provided, however, that in no event shall a “Change in Control” be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Agreement solely because the Company engages in an internal reorganization, which may include a transfer of assets to, or a merger or consolidation with, one or more Affiliates.

“Exercise Date” shall mean any date on which this Award is exercised, in whole or in part, in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement.

“Fair Market Value” shall mean the fair market value of a share of Common Stock, determined as follows:

(a) If the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq Global Market or another nationally recognized trading system as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the closing price per share of Common Stock thereon on (i) in the case of the Grant Date, the Grant Date, and (ii) in the case of the Exercise Date, the trading day immediately preceding the Exercise Date (provided that if no such price is reported on such day, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be determined pursuant to clause (b), below).

(b) If the Common Stock is not listed on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq Global Market or another nationally recognized trading system as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the amount most recently determined by the Board or the Committee to represent the fair market value per share of the Common Stock (including without limitation a determination for purposes of granting Common Stock options or issuing Common Stock under any plan, agreement or arrangement with employees of the Company).

“Final Exercise Date” shall mean the day immediately prior to the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date.

“Initial Value” shall mean ____ Dollars ($____) per Stock Appreciation Right, which is equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Grant Date.

2

“SAR Value” shall mean an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value on the applicable Exercise Date over the Initial Value, multiplied by the number of Stock Appreciation Rights in respect of which this Award is being exercised.

“Stock Appreciation Right” shall mean a unit of value equal to the increase, if any, in the Fair Market Value of one (1) share of Common Stock over the Initial Value. Stock Appreciation Rights are not shares of Common Stock and do not represent the right to purchase shares of Common Stock.

2. Number of Stock Appreciation Rights. The number of Stock Appreciation Rights subject to this Award is _________ (____).

3. Vesting, Exercise and Payment of Award.

(a) Vesting. This Award shall become exercisable (“vest”) as follows:

4. Conditions Applicable to Award.

(b) Continuous Relationship with the Company Required. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4, this Award may not be exercised unless the Participant, at the time he or she exercises this Award, is, and has been at all times since the Grant Date, an employee or officer of, or consultant or advisor to, the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company as defined in Section 424(e) or (f) of the Code (an “Eligible Participant”).

(c) Termination of Relationship with the Company. If the Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant for any reason, then, except as provided in paragraphs (c) and (d) below, the right to exercise this Award shall terminate three months after such cessation (but in no event after the Final Exercise Date), provided that this Award shall be exercisable only to the extent that the Participant was entitled to exercise this Award on the date of such cessation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant, prior to the Final Exercise Date, violates the non-competition or confidentiality provisions of any employment contract, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement or other agreement between the Participant and the Company, the right to exercise this Award shall terminate immediately upon such violation.

(d) Exercise Period Upon Death or Disability.

The Participant shall be considered to have been discharged for “Cause” if the Company determines, within 30 days after the Participant’s resignation, that discharge for cause was warranted.

5. Tax Withholding. Any payment, whether in cash or in shares of Common Stock, pursuant to any exercise of this Award, will be net of, any federal, state or local withholding taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of this Award. If all or any portion of any

4

payment is made in shares of Common Stock, the Company may elect to withhold from such payment shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to such taxes required to be withheld, or may, as a condition to making any such payment, require the Participant to pays to the Company, or makes provision satisfactory to the Company for payment of, any such taxes.

6. No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant the right to continue as an employee of, or consultant or advisor to, the Company.
