2004 STOCK OPTION PLAN
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
(NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION)
Pursuant to your Stock Option Grant Notice ("Grant Notice") and this Stock
Option Agreement, Zyray Wireless Inc. (the "Company") has granted you an option
under its 2004 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") to purchase the number of shares
of the Company's Common Stock indicated in your Grant Notice at the exercise
price indicated in your Grant Notice. Defined terms not explicitly defined in
this Stock Option Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the same
definitions as in the Plan.
The details of your option are as follows:
1. VESTING. Subject to the limitations contained herein, your option
will vest as provided in your Grant Notice, provided that vesting will cease
upon the termination of your Continuous Service.
2. NUMBER OF SHARES AND EXERCISE PRICE. The number of shares of Common
Stock subject to your option and your exercise price per share referenced in
your Grant Notice may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization
Adjustments, as provided in the Plan.
3. METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the exercise price is due in full upon
exercise of all or any part of your option. You may elect to make payment of the
exercise price in cash or by check or in any other manner PERMITTED BY YOUR
GRANT NOTICE, which may include, in the Company's sole discretion at the time
your option is exercised and provided that at the time of exercise the Common
Stock is publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal,
pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal
Reserve Board that, prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the
receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable
instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales
proceeds.
4. WHOLE SHARES. You may exercise your option only for whole shares of
Common Stock.
5. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, you may not exercise your option unless the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such exercise are then registered under the Securities Act
or, as applicable, any securities regulation of any other domestic or foreign
body or entity or, if such shares of Common Stock are not then so registered,
the Company has determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act or, as applicable, any
securities regulation of any other domestic or foreign body or entity. The
exercise of your option must also comply with other applicable federal, state,
local and foreign laws and regulations governing your option, and you may not
exercise your option if the Company determines that such exercise would not be
in material compliance with such laws and regulations.
1.
6. TERM. You may not exercise your option before the commencement of
its term or after its term expires. The term of your option commences on the
Date of Grant and expires upon the EARLIEST of the following:
(a) as of the date of the termination of your Continuous Service
if such termination is for Cause;
(b) three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service for any reason other than Cause or your Disability or death, provided
that if during any part of such three- (3-) month period your option is not
exercisable solely because of the condition set forth in the preceding paragraph
relating to "Securities Law Compliance," your option shall not expire until the
earlier of the Expiration Date or until it shall have been exercisable for an
aggregate period of three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service;
(c) twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service due to your Disability;
(d) eighteen (18) months after your death if you die either during
your Continuous Service or within three (3) months after your Continuous Service
terminates;
(e) the Expiration Date indicated in your Grant Notice; or
(f) the day before the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Date of
Xxxxx.
7. EXERCISE.
(a) You may exercise the vested portion of your option during its
term by delivering a Notice of Exercise (in a form designated by the Company)
together with the exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to such
other person as the Company may designate, during regular business hours,
together with such additional documents as the Company may then require.
(b) By exercising your option you agree that, as a condition to
any exercise of your option, the Company may require you to enter into an
arrangement providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax
withholding obligation of the Company arising by reason of (1) the exercise of
your option, (2) the lapse of any substantial risk of forfeiture to which the
shares of Common Stock are subject at the time of exercise, or (3) the
disposition of shares of Common Stock acquired upon such exercise.
(c) By exercising your option you agree that the Company (or a
representative of the underwriter(s)) may, in connection with the first
underwritten registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under
the Securities Act, require that you not sell, dispose of, transfer, make any
short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging
or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any shares of
Common Stock or other securities of the Company held by you, for a period of
time specified by the underwriter(s) (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180)
days) following the effective date of the registration statement of the Company
filed under the Securities Act. You further agree to execute and deliver such
other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company and/or the
2.
underwriter(s) that are consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary to
give further effect thereto. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the
Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to your shares of
Common Stock until the end of such period. The underwriters of the Company's
stock are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 8(d) and shall have
the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they
were a party hereto.
8. TRANSFERABILITY. Your option is not transferable, except by will or
by the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during your life
only by you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the
Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third party
who, in the event of your death, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise your
option.
9. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Shares of Common Stock that you acquire upon
exercise of your option are subject to any right of first refusal that may be
described in the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws in effect at such time
the Company elects to exercise its right.
10. RIGHT OF REPURCHASE. To the extent provided in the Company's Amended
and Restated Bylaws as amended from time to time, the Company shall have the
right to repurchase all or any part of the shares of Common Stock you acquire
pursuant to the exercise of your option.
11. OPTION NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. Your option is not an employment or
service contract, and nothing in your option shall be deemed to create in any
way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ of the
Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your
employment. In addition, nothing in your option shall obligate the Company or an
Affiliate, their respective shareholders, Boards of Directors, Officers or
Employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a Director or
Consultant for the Company or an Affiliate.
12. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.
(a) At the time you exercise your option, in whole or in part, or
at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize
withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you, and otherwise
agree to make adequate provision for (including by means of a "cashless
exercise" pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by
the Federal Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums
required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding
obligations of the Company or an Affiliate, if any, which arise in connection
with your option.
(b) Upon your request and subject to approval by the Company, in
its sole discretion, and compliance with any applicable conditions or
restrictions of law, the Company may withhold from fully vested shares of Common
Stock otherwise issuable to you upon the exercise of your option a number of
whole shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value, determined by the
Company as of the date of exercise, not in excess of the minimum amount of tax
required to be withheld by law. If the date of determination of any tax
withholding
3.
obligation is deferred to a date later than the date of exercise of your option,
share withholding pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not be permitted
unless you make a proper and timely election under Section 83(b) of the Code,
covering the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock acquired upon such
exercise with respect to which such determination is otherwise deferred, to
accelerate the determination of such tax withholding obligation to the date of
exercise of your option. Notwithstanding the filing of such election, shares of
Common Stock shall be withheld solely from fully vested shares of Common Stock
determined as of the date of exercise of your option that are otherwise issuable
to you upon such exercise. Any adverse consequences to you arising in connection
with such share withholding procedure shall be your sole responsibility.
(c) You may not exercise your option unless the tax withholding
obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied. Accordingly, you
may not be able to exercise your option when desired even though your option is
vested, and the Company shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such
shares of Common Stock or release such shares of Common Stock from any escrow
provided for herein.
13. NOTICES. Any notices provided for in your option or the Plan shall
be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in
the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days after
deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last
address you provided to the Company.
14. GOVERNING PLAN DOCUMENT. Your option is subject to all the
provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of your
option, and is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and
regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to
the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of your option and
those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.
