Restated Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). The maximum number of shares which may be sold upon the exercise of such options granted under the Plan is subject to adjustment in accordance with certain anti-dilution and other provisions of the Plan. Accordingly, pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), this Registration Statement covers, in addition to the number of shares stated above, an indeterminable number of shares which may be subject to grant or otherwise issuable after the operation of any such anti-dilution and other provisions. (2) Consists of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which may be sold upon the exercise of options which previously have been granted under the Plan. (3) Consists of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which may be sold upon the exercise of options which may hereafter be granted under the Plan. (4) This calculation is made solely for the purpose of determining the registration fee pursuant to the provisions of Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act as follows: (i) in the case of shares of Common Stock which may be purchased upon exercise of outstanding options, the fee is calculated on the basis of the price at which the options may be exercised; and (ii) in the case of shares of Common Stock for which options have not yet been granted and the option price of which is therefore unknown, the fee is calculated on the basis of the average high and low sales prices per share of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market System as of a date January 3,2001. EXPLANATORY NOTE This Registration Statement relates to the registration of 1,325,000 additional shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan. In accordance with the instructional Note to Part I of Form S-8 as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the information specified by Part I of Form S-8 has been omitted from this Registration Statement on Form S-8 for offers of Common Stock pursuant to the Plan. The prospectuses filed as a part of the Company's registration statements No. 33-41534 and No. 33-73544 may no longer be used for reofferings and resales of Common stock because the information in such prospectuses is no longer accurate. 2

UNDERTAKINGS. - -------------------- (a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of Regulation C under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (ii) shall not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. (2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been 4
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. 5

less prior to the date of the grant of the Option; b.

Purposes of the Plan The Plan is intended to encourage ownership of Shares by Key Employees, non-employee directors and certain consultants of the Company in order to attract such people, to induce them to work for the benefit of the Company or of an Affiliate and to provide additional incentive for them to promote the success of the Company or of an Affiliate. The Plan provides for the issuance of ISOs and Non-Qualified Options. The Plan shall be treated as an amendment to and restatement of the Company's 1986 Incentive Stock Option Plan.

2. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. The number of Shares subject to this Plan as to which Options may be granted from time to time shall be 4,850,000, or the equivalent of such number of Shares after the Administrator, in its sole discretion, has interpreted the effect of any stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization or similar transaction effected after such date. If an Option ceases to be "outstanding," in whole or in part, the Shares which were subject to such Option shall be available for the granting of other Options under the Plan. Any Option shall be treated as "outstanding" until such Option is exercised in full, or terminates or expires under the provisions of the Plan, or by agreement of the parties to the pertinent Option Agreement. 3. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN. The Administrator of the Plan will be the Board of Directors, except to the extent the Board of Directors delegates its authority to a Committee of the Board of Directors. The Plan is intended to comply with Rule 16b-3 or its successors, promulgated pursuant to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), with respect to Participants who are subject to Section 16 of the 1934 Act, and any provision in this Plan with respect to such persons contrary to Rule 16b-3 shall be deemed null and void to the extent permissible by law and deemed appropriate by the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator is authorized to: a. interpret the provisions of the Plan or of any Option or Option Agreement and to make all rules and determinations which it deems necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan; b. determine which employees of the Company or of an Affiliate shall be designated as Key Employees and which of the Key Employees, directors and consultants shall be granted Options; c. determine the number of Shares for which an Option or Options shall be granted; and d. specify the terms and conditions upon which an 4
Option or Options may be granted; provided, however, that all such interpretations, rules, determinations, terms and conditions shall be made and prescribed in the context of preserving the tax status under Code Section 422 of those Options which are designated as ISOs. Subject to the foregoing, the interpretation and construction by the Administrator of any provisions of the Plan or of any Option granted under it shall be final, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, if the Administrator is other than the Board of Directors. 4. ELIGIBILITY FOR PARTICIPATION. The Administrator will, in its sole discretion, name the Participants in the Plan, provided, however, that each Participant must be a Key Employee, director or consultant of the Company or of an Affiliate at the time an Option is granted. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions, the Administrator may authorize the grant of an Option to a person not then an employee, director or consultant of the Company or of an Affiliate. The actual grant of such Option, however, shall be conditioned upon such person becoming eligible to become a Participant at or prior to the time of the execution of the Option Agreement evidencing such Option. ISOs may be granted only to Key Employees. Non-Qualified Options may be granted to any Key Employee, director or consultant of the Company or an Affiliate. Granting of any Option to any individual shall neither entitle that individual to, nor disqualify him or her from, participation in any other grant of Options. 5. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS. Each Option shall be set forth in an Option Agreement, duly executed by the Company and by the Participant. The Option Agreements, which may be changed in the Administrator's discretion for any particular Participant (provided that any change in the Incentive Stock Option Agreement is not inconsistent with Code Section 422), shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: Non-Qualified Options: Each Option intended to be a Non-Qualified Option shall be subject to the terms and conditions which the Administrator determines to be appropriate and in the best interest of the Company, subject to the following minimum 5
standards for any such Non-Qualified Option: a. The Option Agreement shall be in writing in the form approved by the Administrator, with such modifications to such form as the Administrator shall approve; b. Option Price: The option price (per share) of the Shares covered by each Option shall be determined by the Administrator but shall not be less than the par value per share of the Shares on the date of the grant of the Option. c. Each Option Agreement shall state the number of Shares to which it pertains; and d. Each Option Agreement shall state the date on which it first is exercisable and the date after which it may no longer be exercised. Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, each Option granted hereunder shall become cumulatively exercisable in four (4) equal annual installments of twenty-five percent (25%) each, commencing on the first anniversary date of the Option Agreement executed by the Company and the Participant with respect to such Option, and continuing on each of the next three (3) anniversary dates. e. Each Option shall terminate not more than 10 (ten) years from the date of grant thereof or at such earlier time as the Option Agreement may provide. f. Directors' Options: Each director of the Company who is not an employee of the Company or any Affiliate, upon first being elected or appointed to the Board of Directors after July 9, 1992, and upon every fourth anniversary thereof provided that on such dates such director has been in the continued and uninterrupted service of the Company as a director since his or her election or appointment and is a director and is not an employee of the Company at such times, shall be granted a Non-Qualified Option to purchase 10,000 Shares. Any non-employee director serving in office on July 9, 1992, who has been a member of 6
the Board of Directors prior to such date shall be granted on such date and upon every fourth anniversary thereof, a Non-Qualified Option to purchase 10,000 Shares, provided that on such date such director has been in the continued and uninterrupted service of the Company as a director since July 9, 1992, and is a director and is not an employee of the Company at such time. Each such Option shall (i) have an exercise price equal to the Fair Market Value (per share) of the Shares on the date of grant of the Option, (ii) have a term of ten (10) years, and (iii) shall become cumulatively exercisable in four (4) equal annual installments of twenty-five percent (25%) each, upon completion of one full year of service on the Board of Directors after the date of grant, and continuing on each of the next three (3) full years of service thereafter. Each director of the Company who is not an employee of the Company or any Affiliate, upon first being elected or appointed to the Board of Directors after July 29, 1998, shall be granted, in addition to the Non-Qualified Option to purchase 10,000 Shares as previously described in this subparagraph (f), a Non-Qualified Option to purchase 50,000 Shares. Such Option shall (i) have an exercise price equal to the Fair Market Value (per share) of the Shares on the date of grant of the Option, (ii) have a term of ten (10) years, and (iii) shall become cumulatively exercisable in three (3) equal annual installments of one-third each, upon completion of one full year of service on the Board of Directors after the date of grant, and continuing on each of the next two (2) full years of service thereafter. Any director entitled to receive an Option grant under this subparagraph (f) may elect to decline the Option. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 23 concerning amendment of the Plan, the provisions of this subparagraph (f) shall not be amended more than once every six months, other than to comport with changes in the Code, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, or the rules thereunder. The provisions of Articles 9, 10, 11 and 12 below shall not apply to Options granted pursuant to this subparagraph (f). 7
ISOs: Each Option intended to be an ISO shall be issued only to a Key Employee and be subject to at least the following terms and conditions, with such additional restrictions or changes as the Administrator determines are appropriate but not in conflict with Code Section 422 and relevant regulations and rulings of the Internal Revenue Service: a. Minimum standards: The ISO shall meet the minimum standards for Non-Qualified Options, as described above, except clauses (a), (b) and (e) thereunder. b. Option Agreement: The Option Agreement for an ISO shall be in writing in substantially the form as approved by the Administrator, with such changes to such form as the Administrator shall approve, provided any changes are not inconsistent with Code Section 422. c. Option Price: Immediately before the Option is granted, if the Participant owns, directly or by reason of the applicable attribution rules in Code Section 424(d): i. Ten percent (10%) or less of the total combined voting power of all classes of share capital of the Company or an Affiliate, the Option price per share of the Shares covered by each Option shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of the Shares on the date of the grant of the Option; ii. More than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of share capital of the Company or an Affiliate, the Option price per share of the Shares covered by each Option shall be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the said Fair Market Value on the date of grant. d. Term of Option: For Participants who own: i. Ten percent (10%) or less of the 8
total combined voting power of all classes of share capital of the Company or an Affiliate, each Option shall terminate not more than ten (10) years from the date of the grant or at such earlier time as the Option Agreement may provide; ii. More than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of share capital of the Company or an Affiliate, each Option shall terminate not more than five (5) years from the date of the grant or at such earlier time as the Option Agreement may provide. e. Limitation on Yearly Exercise: The Option Agreements shall restrict the amount of Options which may be exercisable in any calendar year (under this or any other ISO plan of the Company or an Affiliate) so that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time each ISO is granted) of the stock with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by the Participant in any calendar year does not exceed one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), provided that this subparagraph (e) shall have no force or effect if its inclusion in the Plan is not necessary for Options issued as ISOs to qualify as ISOs pursuant to Section 422(d) of the Code. f. Limitation on Grant of ISOs: No ISOs shall be granted after the expiration of the earlier of ten (10) years from the date of the adoption of the Plan by the Company or the approval of the Plan by the shareholders of the Company. 6. EXERCISE OF OPTION AND ISSUANCE OF SHARES. An Option (or any part or installment thereof) shall be exercised by giving written notice to the Company at its principal office address, together with provision for payment of the full purchase price in accordance with this paragraph for the shares as to which such Option is being exercised, and upon compliance with any other condition(s) set forth in the Option Agreement. Such written notice shall be signed by the person 9
exercising the Option, shall state the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised and shall contain any representation required by the Plan or the Option Agreement. Payment of the purchase price for the shares as to which such Option is being exercised shall be made (a) in United States dollars in cash or by check, or (b) at the discretion of the Administrator, through delivery of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal as of the date of the exercise to the cash exercise price of the Option, determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, (c) at the discretion of the Administrator, by delivery of the grantee's personal recourse note bearing interest payable not less than annually at no less than 100% of the applicable Federal rate, as defined in Section 1274(d) of the Code, (d) at the discretion of the Administrator, in accordance with a cashless exercise program established with a securities brokerage firm, and approved by the Administrator, or (e) at the discretion of the Administrator, by any combination of (a), (b), (c) and (d) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator shall accept only such payment on exercise of an ISO as is permitted by Section 422 of the Code. The Company shall then reasonably promptly deliver the Shares as to which such Option was exercised to the Participant (or to the Participant's Survivors, as the case may be). In determining what constitutes "reasonably promptly," it is expressly understood that the delivery of the Shares may be delayed by the Company in order to comply with any law or regulation which requires the Company to take any action with respect to the Shares prior to their issuance. The Shares shall, upon delivery, be evidenced by an appropriate certificate or certificates for paid-up, non-assessable Shares. The Administrator shall have the right to accelerate the date of exercise of any installment of any Option, provided that the Administrator shall not accelerate the exercise date of any installment of any Option granted to any Key Employee as an ISO (and not previously converted into a Non-Qualified Option pursuant to Article 18) if such acceleration would violate the annual vesting limitation contained in Section 422(d) of the Code, as described in paragraph 6(e). 7. RIGHTS AS A SHAREHOLDER. No Participant to whom an Option has been granted shall have rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares covered by such Option, except after due exercise of the Option and 10
provision for payment of the full purchase price for the Shares being purchased pursuant to such exercise. 8. ASSIGNABILITY AND TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. By its terms, an Option granted to a Participant shall not be transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act or the rules thereunder, and shall be exercisable, during the Participant's lifetime, only by such Participant (or by his or her legal representative). Such Option shall not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempted transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of any Option or of any rights granted thereunder contrary to the provisions of this Plan, or the levy of any attachment or similar process upon an Option, shall be null and void. 9. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE OTHER THAN "FOR CAUSE". Except as otherwise provided in the pertinent Option Agreement, in the event of a termination of service (whether as an employee or consultant) before the Participant has exercised all Options, the following rules apply: a. A Participant who ceases to be an employee or consultant of the Company or of an Affiliate (for any reason other than termination "for cause," Disability, or death for which events there are special rules in Articles 10, 11, and 12, respectively), may exercise any Option granted to him or her to the extent that the right to purchase Shares has accrued on the date of such termination of service, but only within such term as the Administrator has designated in the pertinent Option Agreement. b. In no event may an Option Agreement provide, if the Option is intended to be an ISO, that the time for exercise be later than three (3) months after the Participant's termination of employment. c. The provisions of this paragraph, and not the 11
provisions of Article 11 or 12, shall apply to a Participant who subsequently becomes disabled or dies after the termination of employment or consultancy, provided, however, in the case of a Participant's death, the Participant's survivors may exercise the Option within six (6) months after the date of the Participant's death, but in no event after the date of expiration of the term of the Option. d. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if subsequent to a Participant's termination of employment or consultancy, but prior to the exercise of an Option, the Board of Directors determines that, either prior or subsequent to the Participant's termination, the Participant engaged in conduct which would constitute "cause," then such Participant shall forthwith cease to have any right to exercise any Option. e. A Participant to whom an Option has been granted under the Plan who is absent from work with the Company or with an Affiliate because of temporary disability (any disability other than a permanent and total Disability as defined in Article 1 hereof), or who is on leave of absence for any purpose, shall not, during the period of any such absence, be deemed, by virtue of such absence alone, to have terminated such Participant's employment or consultancy with the Company or with an Affiliate, except as the Administrator may otherwise expressly provide. f. Options granted under the Plan shall not be affected by any change of employment or other service within or among the Company and any Affiliates so long as the Participant continues to be an employee or consultant of the Company or any Affiliate, provided, however, if a Participant's employment by either the Company or an Affiliate should cease (other than to become an employee of an Affiliate or the Company), such termination shall affect the Participant's rights under any Option granted to such Participant in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the pertinent Option Agreement. 12
10. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE "FOR CAUSE". Except as otherwise provided in the pertinent Option Agreement, the following rules apply if the Participant's service (whether as an employee or consultant) is terminated "for cause" prior to the time that all of his or her outstanding Options have been exercised: a. All outstanding and unexercised Options as of the date the Participant is notified his or her service is terminated "for cause" will immediately be forfeited, unless the Option Agreement provides otherwise. b. For purposes of this Article, "cause" shall include (and is not limited to) dishonesty with respect to the employer, insubordination, substantial malfeasance or nonfeasance of duty, unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, and conduct substantially prejudicial to the business of the Company or any Affiliate. The determination of the Administrator as to the existence of cause will be conclusive on the Participant and the Company. c. "Cause" is not limited to events which have occurred prior to a Participant's termination of service, nor is it necessary that the Administrator's finding of "cause" occur prior to termination. If the Administrator determines, subsequent to a Participant's termination of service but prior to the exercise of an Option, that either prior or subsequent to the Participant's termination the Participant engaged in conduct which would constitute "cause," then the right to exercise any Option is forfeited. d. Any definition in an agreement between the Participant and the Company or an Affiliate which contains a conflicting definition of "cause" for termination and which is in effect at the time of such termination shall supersede the definition in this Plan with respect to such Participant. 11. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE FOR DISABILITY. Except as otherwise provided in the pertinent Option 13
Agreement, a Participant who ceases to be an employee of or consultant to the Company or of an Affiliate by reason of Disability may exercise any Option granted to such Participant: a. to the extent that the right to purchase Shares has accrued on the date of his Disability; and b. in the event rights to exercise the Option accrue periodically, to the extent of a pro rata portion of any additional rights as would have accrued had the Participant not become Disabled prior to the end of the accrual period which next ends following the date of Disability. The proration shall be based upon the number of days of such accrual period prior to the date of Disability. A Disabled Participant may exercise such rights only within a period of not more than one (1) year after the date that the Participant became Disabled or, if earlier, within the originally prescribed term of the Option. The Administrator shall make the determination both of whether Disability has occurred and the date of its occurrence (unless a procedure for such determination is set forth in another agreement between the Company and such Participant, in which case such procedure shall be used for such determination). If requested, the Participant shall be examined by a physician selected or approved by the Administrator, the cost of which examination shall be paid for by the Company. 12. EFFECT OF DEATH WHILE AN EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT. Except as otherwise provided in the pertinent Option Agreement, in the event of the death of a Participant to whom an Option has been granted while the Participant is an employee or consultant of the Company or of an Affiliate, such Option may be exercised by the Participant's Survivors: a. to the extent exercisable but not exercised on the date of death; and b. in the case of an Option, in the event rights to exercise the Option accrue periodically, to the extent of a pro rata portion of such rights based upon the number of days prior to the Participant's death and during the accrual period which next ends following the date of death. 14
If the Participant's Survivors wish to exercise the Option, they must take all necessary steps to exercise the Option within one (1) year after the date of death of such Participant, notwithstanding that the decedent might have been able to exercise the Option as to some or all of the Shares on a later date if he or she had not died and had continued to be an employee or consultant or, if earlier, within the originally prescribed term of the Option. 13. TERMINATION OF DIRECTORS' OPTION RIGHTS. Except as otherwise provided in the pertinent Option Agreement, if a director who receives Options pursuant to Article 5, subparagraph (f): a. ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors of the Company for any reason other than death or Disability, any then unexercised Options granted to such Director may be exercised by the director within a period of ninety (90) days after the date the director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors, but only to the extent of the number of shares with respect to which the Options are exercisable on the date the director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors, and in no event later than the expiration date of the Option; or b. ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors of the Company by reason of his or her death or Disability, any then unexercised Options granted to such Director may be exercised by the director (or by the director's personal representative, heir or legatee, in the event of death) within a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after the date the director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors, but only to the extent of the number of Shares with respect to which the Options are exercisable on the date the director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors, and in no event later than the expiration date of the Option. 14. PURCHASE FOR INVESTMENT. Unless the offering and sale of the Shares to be issued 15
upon the particular exercise of an Option shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as now in force or hereafter amended (the "Act"), the Company shall be under no obligation to issue the Shares covered by such exercise unless and until the following conditions have been fulfilled: a. The person(s) who exercise such Option shall warrant to the Company, prior to receipt of the Shares, that such person(s) are acquiring such Shares for their own respective accounts, for investment, and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of any such Shares, in which event the person(s) acquiring such Shares shall be bound by the provisions of the following legend which shall be endorsed upon the certificate(s) evidencing their Shares issued pursuant to such exercise or such grant: "The shares represented by this certificate have been taken for investment and they may not be sold or otherwise transferred by any person, including a pledgee, in the absence of an effective registration statement of the shares under the Securities Act of 1933 or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that an exemption from registration is then available." b. The Company shall have received an opinion of its counsel that the Shares may be issued upon such particular exercise in compliance with the Act without registration thereunder. The Company may delay issuance of the Shares until completion of any action or obtaining of any consent which the Company deems necessary under any applicable law (including, without limitation, state securities or "blue sky"laws). 15. DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION OF THE COMPANY. Upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, all Options granted under this Plan which as of such date shall not have been exercised will terminate and become null and void; provided, however, that if the rights of a Participant or a Participant's Survivors have not otherwise terminated and expired, the Participant or the Participant's Survivors will have the right immediately prior to such dissolution or liquidation to exercise any Option to the extent that the right 16
to purchase Shares has accrued under the Plan as of the date immediately prior to such dissolution or liquidation. 16. ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events, a Participant's rights with respect to any Option granted to him or her hereunder which have not previously been exercised in full shall be adjusted as hereinafter provided, unless otherwise specifically provided in the written agreement between the optionee and the Company relating to such Option: a. Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares or if the Company shall issue any shares of Common Stock as a stock dividend on its outstanding Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon the exercise of such Option shall be appropriately increased or decreased proportionately, and appropriate adjustments shall be made in the purchase price per share to reflect such subdivision, combination or stock dividend. b. Consolidations or Mergers. If the Company is to be consolidated with or acquired by another entity in a merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or any similar transaction or transaction having the same effect (an "Acquisition"), the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, prior to consummation of such Acquisition shall, as to outstanding Options, either (i) make appropriate provisions, if necessary, for the continuation of such Options by substituting on an equitable basis for the shares then subject to such Options (A) the securities of any successor or acquiring entity, or (B) other consideration payable with respect to the outstanding shares of Common Stock in connection with the Acquisition; or (ii) upon written notice to the optionees, provide that all Options must be exercised (all Options being made fully exercisable for purposes of this subsection) within one year of the date of such notice, at the end of which period the Options shall terminate; or (iii) terminate all Options 17
in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares subject to such Options (all Options being made fully exercisable for purposes of this subsection) over the exercise price thereof. c. Recapitalization or Reorganization. In the event of a recapitalization or reorganization of the Company (other than a transaction described in subparagraph B above) pursuant to which securities of the Company or of another corporation are issued with respect to the outstanding shares of Common Stock, an optionee upon exercising an Option shall be entitled to receive for the purchase price paid upon such exercise the securities he or she would have received if he or she had exercised such Option prior to such recapitalization or reorganization. d. Modification of ISOs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustments made pursuant to subparagraphs A, B or C with respect to ISOs shall be made only after the Administrator, after consulting with counsel for the Company, determines whether such adjustment would constitute a "modification" of such ISOs (as that term is defined in Section 424(h) of the Code) or would cause any adverse tax consequences for the holders of such ISOs. If the Administrator determines that such adjustments made with respect to ISOs would constitute a modification of such ISOs, it may refrain from making such adjustments, unless the holder of an ISO specifically requests in writing that such adjustment be made and such writing indicates that the holder has full knowledge of the consequences of such "modification" on his or her income tax treatment with respect to the ISO. 17. ISSUANCES OF SECURITIES. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares subject to Options. Except as expressly provided herein, no adjustments shall be made for 18
dividends paid in cash or in property (including without limitation, securities) of the Company. 18. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional share shall be issued under the Plan and the person exercising such right shall receive from the Company cash in lieu of such fractional share equal to the Fair Market Value thereof. 19. CONVERSION OF ISOS INTO NON-QUALIFIED OPTIONS: TERMINATION OF ISOS. The Administrator, at the written request of any optionee, may in its discretion take such actions as may be necessary to convert such optionee's ISOs (or any installments or portions of installments thereof) that have not been exercised on the date of conversion into Non-Qualified Options at any time prior to the expiration of such ISOs, regardless of whether the optionee is an employee of the Company or an Affiliate at the time of such conversion. Such actions may include, but not be limited to, extending the exercise period or reducing the exercise price of the appropriate installments of such Options. At the time of such conversion, the Administrator (with the consent of the optionee) may impose such conditions on the exercise of the resulting Non-Qualified Options as the Administrator in its discretion may determine, provided that such conditions shall not be inconsistent with this Plan. Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to give any optionee the right to have such optionee's ISO's converted into Non-Qualified Options, and no such conversion shall occur until and unless the Administrator takes appropriate action. The Administrator, with the consent of the optionee, may also terminate any portion of any ISO that has not been exercised at the time of such termination. 20. WITHHOLDING. Upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Option for less than its fair market value, the making of a Disqualifying Disposition (as defined in paragraph 21) or the vesting of restricted Common Stock acquired on the exercise of an Option hereunder, the Company may withhold from the optionee's wages, if any, or other remuneration, or may require the optionee to pay additional federal, state, and local income tax withholding and employee contributions to employment taxes in respect of the amount that is considered compensation includible in such person's gross income. The Administrator in its discretion may condition 19
the exercise of an Option for less than its fair market value or the vesting of restricted Common Stock acquired by exercising an Option on the grantee's payment of such additional income tax withholding and employee contributions to employment taxes. 21. NOTICE TO COMPANY OF DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION. Each Key Employee who receives an ISO must agree to notify the Company in writing immediately after the Key Employee makes a Disqualifying Disposition of any shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO. A Disqualifying Disposition is any disposition (including any sale) of such shares before the later of (a) two years after the date the Key Employee was granted the ISO, or (b) one year after the date the Key Employee acquired shares by exercising the ISO. If the Key Employee has died before such stock is sold, these holding period requirements do not apply and no Disqualifying Disposition can occur thereafter. 22. TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. Except as provided in the following sentence, the Plan will terminate on November 12, 2007. The Plan may be terminated at an earlier date by vote of the stockholders of the Company provided, however, that any such earlier termination will not affect any Options granted or Option Agreements executed prior to the effective date of such termination. 23. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. The Plan may be amended by the stockholders of the Company. The Plan may also be amended by the Administrator, including, without limitation, to the extent necessary to qualify any or all outstanding ISOs granted under the Plan or ISOs to be granted under the Plan for favorable federal income tax treatment (including deferral of taxation upon exercise) as may be afforded incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code, to the extent necessary to ensure the compliance of the Plan with Rule 16b-3 under the 1934 Act, and to the extent necessary to qualify the shares issuable upon exercise of any outstanding options granted, or options to be granted, under the Plan for listing on any national securities exchange or quotation in any national automated quotation system of securities dealers. Any amendment approved by the Administrator which is of a scope that requires stockholder approval in order to ensure favorable federal income tax treatment for any incentive stock options or requires stockholder approval in order to ensure the qualification of the Plan under Rule 16b-3 20
shall be subject to obtaining such stockholder approval. Any modification or amendment of the Plan shall not, without the consent of an optionee, adversely affect his or her rights under an option previously granted to him or her. With the consent of the optionee affected, the Administrator may amend outstanding option agreements in a manner not inconsistent with the Plan. 24. EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER RELATIONSHIP. Nothing in this plan or any Option Agreement shall be deemed to prevent the Company or an Affiliate from terminating the employment, consultancy or director status of a Participant, nor to prevent a Participant from terminating his or her own employment, consultancy or director status or to give any Participant a right to be retained in employment or other service by the Company or any Affiliate for any period of time. 25. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. 21
