|
1.
|
ISO Award. The Company grants to Option Holder ISOs to purchase [Number] Shares at an Exercise Price of $[Number] per Share
on the date noted above (the “Grant Date”). These ISOs are subject to forfeiture and to limits on transferability until they vest, as provided in Sections 5 and 6 of this Agreement and in Article V of the Plan.
|
|
2.
|
Vesting Dates. The ISOs shall vest (become exercisable) as follows, subject to earlier vesting in the event of a termination of Service as
provided in Section 6 or a Change in Control as provided in Section 7:
|
| Vesting Date |
ISOs for
Number of Shares Vesting
|
| Retirement Age (Optional – Default age 65): The Retirement Age shall be age ____. |
|
|
3.
|
Exercise. The Option Holder (or in the case of the death of the Option Holder, the designated legal representative or heir of the Option
Holder) may exercise the ISOs during the Exercise Period by giving written notice to the President of the Company in the form required by the Committee (“Exercise Notice”). The Exercise Notice must specify the number of Shares to be
purchased, which shall be at least 100 unless fewer Shares remain unexercised. The exercise date is the date the Exercise Notice is received by the Company. The Exercise Period commences on the vesting date referenced in Section 2
(“Vesting Date”) and expires at 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on the date ten years after the Grant Date, such later time and date being hereinafter referred to as the “Expiration Date,” subject to earlier expiration in the event of a
termination of Service as provided in Section 6. Any ISOs not exercised as of the close of business on the last day of the Exercise Period shall be cancelled without consideration at that time.
|
|
4.
|
Related Awards. These ISOs are not related to any other Award under the Plan.
|
|
5.
|
Transferability. The Option Holder may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber any ISOs, except in the event of the
Option Holder’s death, by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a Domestic Relations Order, except that the Option may be transferred to a trust if, under Section 671 of the Code and applicable state law, the Option
Holder is considered the sole beneficial owner of the Option while it is held by the trust.
|
|
6.
|
Termination of Service. If the Option Holder terminates Service for any reason other
than in connection with a Change in Control or the death or Disability of the Option Holder, any ISOs that have not vested as of the date of that termination shall be forfeited to the Company, and the Exercise Period of any vested ISOs
shall expire three months after that termination of Service (but in no event after the Expiration Date), except where that termination of Service is due to Retirement, in which case the Exercise Period of any vested ISOs shall expire one
year after that termination of Service (but in no event after the Expiration Date), or in the case of a Termination for Cause, in which case all ISOs held by the Option Holder shall expire immediately. If the Option Holder’s Service
terminates on account of the Option Holder’s death or Disability, the Vesting Date for all ISOs that have not vested or been forfeited shall be accelerated to the date of that termination of Service, and the Exercise Period of all ISOs
shall expire one year after that termination of Service (but in no event after the Expiration Date). Note that if the option is not exercised within 3 months
following termination of Service, then the option will be treated as an NQSO and not an ISO.
|
|
7.
|
Effect of Change in Control. If a Change in Control occurs prior to the Vesting Date of an ISO that is outstanding on the date of the
Change in Control, and the Option Holder experiences an Involuntary Separation from Service other than a Termination for Cause during the 365-day period following the date of such Change in Control, then the Vesting Date for any non-vested
ISO shall be accelerated to the date of the Option Holder’s Involuntary Separation from Service. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if at the effective time of the Change in Control the successor to the Company’s business and/or
assets does not either assume the outstanding ISO or replace the outstanding ISO with an award that is determined by the Committee to be at least equivalent in value to such outstanding ISO on the date of the Change in Control, then the
Vesting Date of such outstanding ISO shall be accelerated to the earliest date of the Change in Control.
|
|
8.
|
Option Holder’s Rights. The ISOs awarded hereby do not entitle the Option Holder to any rights of a shareholder of the Company.
|
|
9.
|
Delivery of Shares to Option Holder. Promptly after receipt of an Exercise Notice and full payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares
being acquired, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Option Holder (or other person validly exercising the ISO) a certificate or certificates representing the Shares being purchased, or evidence of the issuance of such Shares in
book-entry form, registered in the name of the Option Holder (or such other person), or, upon request, in the name of the Option Holder (or such other person) and in the name of another person in such form of joint ownership as requested by
the Option Holder (or such other person) pursuant to applicable state law. The Company’s obligation to deliver a stock certificate or evidence of the issuance of Shares in book-entry form for Shares purchased upon the exercise of an ISO
can be
|
|
|
conditioned upon the receipt of a representation of investment intent from the Option Holder (or the Option Holder’s Beneficiary) in such form as the Committee requires. The Company
shall not be required to deliver stock certificates or evidence of the issuance of Shares in book-entry form for Shares purchased prior to: (a) the listing of those Shares on Nasdaq; or (b) the completion of any registration or
qualification of those Shares required under applicable law.
|
|
10.
|
Notice of Sale of Shares. The Option Holder (or other person who received Shares from the exercise of
the ISOs) shall give written notice to the Company promptly in the event of the sale or other disposition of Shares received from the exercise of the ISOs within either: (a) two years from the Grant Date; or (b) one year from the exercise
date for the ISOs exercised.
|
|
11.
|
Adjustments in Shares. In the event of any recapitalization, forward or reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation,
spin-off, combination, exchange of Shares or other securities, stock dividend, special or recurring dividend or distribution, liquidation, dissolution or other similar corporate transaction or event, the Committee, in its sole discretion,
shall adjust the number of Shares or class of securities of the Company covered by the ISOs or the Exercise Price of the ISOs. The Option Holder agrees to execute any documents required by the Committee in connection with an adjustment
under this Section 11.
|
|
12.
|
Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to require the Option Holder to pay to the Company the amount of any tax that the
Company is required to withhold with respect to such Shares, or in lieu thereof, to retain or sell without notice, a sufficient number of Shares to cover the amount to be withheld. The Company shall have the right to deduct from all
dividends paid with respect to the Shares the amount of any taxes that the Company is required to withhold with respect to such dividend payments.
|
|
13.
|
Plan and Committee Decisions are Controlling. This Agreement, the award of ISOs to the Option Holder and the issuance of Shares upon the
exercise of the ISOs are subject in all respects to the provisions of the Plan, which are controlling. Capitalized terms herein not defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan. All decisions,
determinations and interpretations by the Committee respecting the Plan, this Agreement, the award of ISOs or the issuance of Shares upon the exercise of the ISOs shall be binding and conclusive upon the Option Holder, any Beneficiary of
the Option Holder or the legal representative thereof. The Option Holder acknowledges and agrees that this Award and receipt of any Shares hereunder by any person is subject to (a) Plan Section 9.10, including possible reduction,
cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment (clawback), and (b) any policies which the Company may adopt in furtherance of any regulatory requirements (including, but not limited to, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act)
or otherwise.
|
|
14.
|
Option Holder’s Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate the
Option Holder’s Service as an Employee, or otherwise impose upon the Company or any of its Affiliates any obligation to employ or accept the services or employment of the Option Holder.
|
|
15.
|
Amendment. The Committee may waive any conditions of or rights of the Company or modify or amend the terms of this Agreement; provided,
however, that the Committee may not amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any provision of this Agreement if such action may adversely affect the Option Holder without the Option Holder’s written consent. To the extent permitted
by applicable laws and regulations and the terms of the Plan, the Committee shall have the authority, in its sole discretion but with the permission of the Option Holder, to accelerate
|
|
|
the vesting of the Shares or remove any other restrictions imposed on the Option Holder with respect to the Shares, whenever the Committee may determine that such action is
appropriate.
|
|
16.
|
Loss of ISO Status. If any of the ISOs fail, for any reason, to qualify for the special tax treatment afforded the ISOs, they shall be
treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options under the Plan. The ISOs will lose ISO status: (a) if the Option Holder is not an employee of the Company or its Affiliates from the Grant Date through the date three months before the exercise date;
or (b) if the Shares acquired upon the exercise of the ISO are sold or disposed of within one of the time periods described in Section 10 of this Agreement.
|
|
17.
|
Option Holder Acceptance. The Option Holder shall signify acceptance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and acknowledge receipt
of a copy of the Plan by signing in the space provided below and returning the signed copy to the Company.

|
|
6.
|
Termination of Service. If the Option Holder
terminates Service for any reason other than in connection with a Change in Control or the death or Disability of the Option Holder, any NQSOs that have not vested as of the date of that termination shall be forfeited to the Company, and

|
Restricted Stock Award. The Company makes this award of Restricted Stock of [Number] Shares to the Grantee on the date noted above (the “Grant Date”). These Shares are subject to forfeiture and to limits on transferability until they vest, as provided in Sections 2, 3 and 4 of this
Agreement and in Article VI of the Plan.
|
|
2.
|
Period of Restriction: The Shares are subject to a Period of Restriction, during which the Grantee shall not receive the Shares, be able
to transfer the Shares, or otherwise have rights with respect to the Shares, subject to earlier vesting in the event of a termination of Service as provided in Section 4 or a Change in Control as provided in Section 5. After the Period of
Restriction ends with respect to a Share, such Share shall be considered vested, except as provided in this Agreement or the Plan. The Period of Restriction ends with respect to the Shares in accordance with the following schedule:
|
|
Date Period of
Restriction Ends
("Vesting Date")
|
With Respect to the Following
Number of Shares
|
|
3.
|
Transferability. The Grantee may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber any Shares that have not vested, except in the
event of the Grantee’s death, by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a Domestic Relations Order. The Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may allow the Grantee to transfer all or any portion of this
Restricted Stock Award to the Grantee’s Family Members, as provided for in the Plan.
|
|
4.
|
Termination of Service. If the Grantee terminates Service for any reason other than
on account of a Change in Control as provided for in Section 5 below, or due to the death or Disability of the Grantee, any Shares that have not vested as of the date of that termination shall be forfeited to the Company. The Shares shall
never vest in the event of a Termination for Cause. If the Grantee’s Service terminates on account of the Grantee’s death or Disability, the Period of Restriction for all Shares that have not previously vested shall end on the date of that
termination of Service and the Grantee shall then be vested in the Shares (and with respect to any performance-based vesting conditions, it shall be assumed that all such conditions were met at 100% of the performance target).
|
|
5.
|
Effect of Change in Control. If a Change in Control occurs prior to the end of a Period of Restriction for Restricted Stock Awards, and
the Grantee experiences an Involuntary Separation from Service other than a Termination for Cause during the 365-day period following the date of such Change in Control, then the Period of Restriction for any non-vested Restricted Stock
Awards shall end on the date of the Grantee’s Involuntary Separation from Service and the Grantee shall then be vested in the Shares related to such Restricted Stock Awards (and with respect to any performance-based vesting conditions, it
shall be assumed that all such conditions were met at 100% of the performance target). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if at the effective time of the Change in Control the successor to the Company’s business and/or assets does not
either assume the non-vested Restricted Stock Awards or replace the non-vested Restricted Stock Awards with an award that is determined by the Committee to be at least equivalent in value to such non-vested Restricted Stock Awards on the
date of the Change in Control, then the Period of Restriction for such non-vested Restricted Stock Awards shall end on the earliest date of the Change in Control, and the Grantee shall then be vested in the Shares related to such Restricted
Stock Awards.
|
|
6.
|
Stock Power. The Grantee agrees to execute a stock power with respect to each stock certificate reflecting the Shares, or other evidence
of book-entry stock ownership, in favor of the Company. The Shares shall not be issued by the Company to the Grantee until the required stock powers are delivered by the Grantee to the Company.
|
|
7.
|
Delivery of Shares. The Company shall issue stock certificates or evidence of the issuance of such Shares in book-entry form, in the name
of the Grantee reflecting the Shares vesting on each Vesting Date in Section 2. The Company shall retain these certificates or evidence of the issuance of Shares in book-entry form until the Shares represented thereby become vested. Prior
to vesting, the Shares shall be subject to the following restriction, communicated in writing to the Company’s stock transfer agent:
|
|
8.
|
Grantee’s Rights Re Dividends and Voting. As the owner of all Shares that have not vested, the Grantee shall be paid dividends by the
Company with respect to those Shares when and as provided for in Section 6.3 of the Plan. The Grantee may exercise all voting rights appurtenant to the Shares.
|
|
9.
|
Delivery of Unrestricted Shares to Grantee. Upon the vesting of any Shares, the restrictions in Sections 3 and 4 shall terminate, and the
Company shall deliver only to the Grantee (or, if applicable, the Grantee’s Beneficiary, estate or Family Member) a certificate (without the legend referenced in Section 7) or evidence of the issuance of Shares in book-entry form, and the
related stock power in respect of the vesting Shares. The Company’s obligation to deliver a stock certificate for vested Shares, or evidence of the issuance of vested Shares in book-entry form, can be conditioned upon the receipt of a
representation of investment intent from the Grantee (or the Grantee’s Beneficiary, estate or Family Member) in such form as the Committee requires. The Company shall not be required to deliver stock certificates for vested Shares, or
evidence of the issuance of vested Shares in book-entry form, prior to: (a) the listing of those Shares on Nasdaq;
|
|
or (b) the completion of any registration or qualification of those Shares required under applicable law.

Plan, this Agreement or the award of Shares shall be binding and conclusive upon the Grantee, any Beneficiary of the Grantee or the legal representative thereof. The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that this Award and receipt of any
Shares hereunder by any person is subject to (a) Plan Section 9.10, including possible reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment (clawback), and (b) any policies which the Company may adopt in furtherance of any regulatory
