Type of Option Granted: 

Number of Shares of Common
Stock Covered by the Option: 

[●] 

This Agreement evidences an award of an Option exercisable for that number of shares of Common Stock set forth on the Cover Sheet of this Agreement and subject to the vesting and other conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan.

This Option is a Nonqualified Stock Option, this Option is not intended to be an incentive stock option under Code Section 422 and will be interpreted accordingly.

This Option is exercisable only before it expires and then only with respect to the vested portion of the Option.

The Option will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on the Cover Sheet to this Agreement, so long as you continue in Service on each applicable vesting date set forth on the Cover Sheet. Any resulting fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole share and shall be rounded up or down as necessary as of the last applicable vesting date; provided, in all cases, you cannot vest in more than the number of shares of Common Stock covered by this Option.

Notwithstanding your vesting schedule, the unvested portion of your Option will become one hundred percent (100%) vested upon your termination of Service due to your death or Disability.

No additional shares of Common Stock will vest after your Service has terminated for any reason.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) your Option will expire in any event at the close of business on the day before the tenth (10^th) anniversary of the Grant Date, as shown on the Cover Sheet; (ii) your Option may expire earlier if your Service terminates, as described below; and (iii) your Option may expire earlier in the event of a Change in Control.

In the event your Service terminates for any reason, you will automatically forfeit to the Company the portion of the Option that has not yet vested as of the date of your termination of Service (after taking into account any accelerated vesting triggered by such termination of Service pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other written agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary and you).

Regular Termination of Service

If your Service terminates for any reason other than death, Disability, or Cause, the vested, unexercised portion of your Option will expire at the close of business on the ninetieth (90^th) day following such termination of Service.

If your Service is terminated for Cause, you will immediately and automatically forfeit all rights to your Option (whether vested or unvested), and the Option will immediately and automatically expire. You will be prohibited from exercising the Option from and after the time of such termination of Service.

If your Service terminates because of your death, the vested, unexercised portion of your Option will expire at the close of business on the day before the first (1^st) anniversary of the date of your termination of Service. During such period, your estate or heirs may exercise the vested portion of your Option.

In addition, if you die during the ninety (90)-day period described in connection with a regular termination (i.e., a termination of your Service not on account of your death, Disability, or Cause), and the vested portion of your Option has not yet been exercised, then the vested, unexercised portion of your Option will instead expire at the close of business on the day before the first (1^st) anniversary of the date of your termination of Service. In such a case, during such period, your estate or heirs may exercise the vested portion of your Option.

If your Service terminates because of your Disability, the vested, unexercised portion of your Option will expire at the close of business on the day before the first (1^st) anniversary of the date of your termination of Service.

For purposes of this Agreement, your Service does not terminate when you go on a bona fide leave of absence that was approved by your employer in writing if the terms of the leave provide for continued Service crediting or when continued Service crediting is required by Applicable Laws. Your Service terminates in any event when the approved leave ends unless you immediately return to active employee work.

Your employer may determine, in its discretion, which leaves count for this purpose and when your Service terminates for all purposes under the Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board or the Committee may determine, in its discretion, that a leave counts for this purpose even if your employer does not agree.

The vested portion of your Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, by (i) giving written notice to the Company or its designee or agent, pursuant to a form designated by the Company, of your intent to exercise and (ii) delivering to the Company or its designee or agent full payment for the shares of Common Stock as to which the Option is to be exercised. Your notice must specify how many shares of Common Stock you wish to purchase. Your notice must also specify how your shares of Common Stock should be registered (in your name only or in your and your spouse’s names as joint tenants with right of survivorship). The notice will be effective when it is received by the Company or its designee or agent.

If someone else wants to exercise this Option after your death, that person must prove to the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled to do so.

When you exercise your Option, you must include payment of the Option Price indicated on the Cover Sheet for the shares of Common Stock you are purchasing. Payment may be made in one (or a combination) of the following forms:

●     Cash (or such other cash equivalent as the Company may accept); 

●    Shares of Common Stock that are owned by you and that are surrendered to the Company, where the Fair Market Value of such shares as of the effective date of the Option exercise will be applied to the Option Price, provided further that accepting such shares of Common Stock will not result in any adverse accounting consequences to the Company, as the Board or the Committee determines in its sole discretion; 

●     Payment may be made in the form of consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise program (whether through a broker or otherwise) implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan; 

●    If permitted by the Board or the Committee, by withholding shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable in an amount, determined based on the Fair Market Value of such shares as of the effective date of the Option exercise, equal to the Option Price; and/or 

●     If permitted by the Board or the Committee and Applicable Laws, by promissory note.

The ownership of the shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of your Option may be evidenced in such a manner as the Board or the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate, including, without limitation, by book-entry or direct registration or the issuance of one or more stock certificates.

You agree as a condition of this Option that you will make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of the exercise of the Option, the sale of Common Stock acquired under this Option, or as otherwise arising under this Option. In the event that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries determines that any federal, state, local, or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to the exercise of the Option, the sale of Common Stock acquired under this Option, or as otherwise arising under this Option, the Company or such Subsidiary shall have the right to (i) require you to tender a cash payment, (ii) deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to you, or (iii) withhold the delivery of vested shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable under this Agreement to meet such obligations, where the shares of Common Stock so withheld will have an aggregate Fair Market Value not exceeding the maximum amount of tax required to be withheld by Applicable Laws.

You agree that the Company or any Subsidiary shall be entitled to use whatever method it may deem appropriate to recover such taxes. You further agree that the Company or any Subsidiary may, as it reasonably considers necessary, amend or vary this Agreement to facilitate such recovery of taxes.

During your lifetime, only you (or, in the event of your legal incapacity or incompetency, your guardian or legal representative) may exercise the Option. The Option may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise encumbered, whether by operation of law or otherwise, nor may the Option be made subject to execution, attachment, or similar process. If you attempt to do any of these things, you will immediately forfeit the Option. You may, however, dispose of this Option in your will or it may be transferred upon your death by the laws of descent and distribution.

Regardless of any marital property settlement agreement, the Company is not obligated to honor a notice of exercise from your spouse, nor is the Company obligated to recognize your spouse’s interest in your Option in any other way.

This Agreement and the Option evidenced hereby do not give you the right to be retained by the Company or any Subsidiary in any capacity. Unless otherwise specified in an employment or other written agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary and you, the Company and any Subsidiary reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time and for any reason.

You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until you exercise all or a portion of the Option and a certificate for the shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Option has been issued (or an appropriate book entry has been made). Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, no adjustments are made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before your stock certificate is issued (or an appropriate book entry has been made).

Your Option shall be subject to the terms of any applicable agreement of merger, liquidation, or reorganization in the event the Company is subject to such corporate activity.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Board or the Committee determines that you have taken actions in violation or breach of or in conflict with any employment agreement, non-competition agreement, agreement prohibiting solicitation of employees or clients of the Company or any Affiliate, confidentiality obligation with respect to the Company or any Affiliate, Company or Affiliate policy or procedure, other agreement, or any other material obligation to the Company or any Affiliate, at any time while you are employed by, or providing services to, the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or after your termination of Service, this Option, to the extent outstanding, shall immediately terminate, and you shall automatically forfeit all shares underlying any exercised portion of this Option for which the Company has not yet delivered the share certificates, upon refund by the Company of the exercise price paid by you for such shares.

This Option and any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Option are subject to mandatory repayment by you to the Company to the extent you are or in the future become subject to any Company or any Subsidiary “clawback” or recoupment policy that requires the repayment by you to the Company or a Subsidiary of compensation paid by the Company or a Subsidiary to you.

This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware, other than any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.
