EXHIBIT 99.3

NET 1 UEPS TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
FOR NON-U.S. EMPLOYEES

     Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) has granted to the Employee named below (the “Employee”), effective as of the Date of Grant specified below, an option (the “Option”) to purchase certain shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Shares”) upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Stock Option Agreement (the “Agreement”) and the Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan of Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc. (the “Plan”), the provisions of which are incorporated into the Agreement. By signing this Agreement, the Employee: (a) acknowledges he/she has read this Agreement; (b) accepts the Option subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (c) agrees to accept as binding, conclusive, and final all decisions or interpretations of the Company upon any questions arising under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, actions and determinations to be made by the Company may be made by the Board of Directors of the Company or by such committee or delegate as may be appointed by the Board of Directors from time to time.

  Name of Employee:  
  Date of Grant: August 24, 2006
  Number of Option Shares:  
  Exercise Price: US$22.51 per Share
  Option Expiration Date: August 24, 2016

     For clarity, as used in this Agreement, the term “exercise” means to acquire ownership of Shares which are the subject of the Option in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Except as provided in Section 6 below, the aggregate number of whole Shares for which this Option may be exercised as of any date is determined by multiplying the number of Option Shares listed above by the following percentage, and reducing that result by the number of Shares previously acquired upon exercise of the Option:

  Exercise Date Percentage
  Prior to May 8, 2007 0%
  On or after May 8, 2007 and prior to May 8, 2008 20%
  On or after May 8, 2008 and prior to May 8, 2009 40%
  On or after May 8, 2009 and prior to May 8, 2010 60%
  On or after May 8, 2010 and prior to May 8, 2011 80%
  On or after May 8, 2011 100%

     The Option shall not become exercisable for any additional Option Shares after the date the Employee’s employment or other service with the Company and its affiliates terminates for any reason.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, the grant of the Option is contingent upon shareholder approval of the Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan of Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc. The failure of the Company to obtain such shareholder approval prior to May 8, 2007, will render the Option null and void from its inception and it shall terminate unexercisable.

1. DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION.

     Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement, capitalized terms have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. The captions and titles contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and do not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

2. TAX CONSEQUENCES.

     This Option is intended to be a nonstatutory stock option and shall not be treated as an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422(b) of the Code. This Option will be subject to the tax laws of the country or jurisdiction in which the Employee is a tax resident or is otherwise subject to taxation.

3. EXERCISE OF THE OPTION.

     3.1 Automatic Exercise. On each date on which this Option first becomes exercisable for any fraction of the number of Option Shares stated above, this Option will be exercised automatically for all of the Shares for which this Option is then exercisable and not previously exercised, and the Option recipient shall become the owner of such Shares with all of the rights, liabilities, and obligations that come with ownership. Payment for such automatic exercise shall be effected by delivery to the Company, on or before the exercise date, of any of the forms of authorized consideration specified in Section 3.3 below, as determined in the discretion of the Option recipient; provided, however, that if the Option recipient shall fail to deliver the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company by the close of business on the exercise date, then the Exercise Price shall be paid, by default, by means of the Company withholding from the Option Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise that number of Option Shares, rounded up to the nearest whole share, the Fair Market Value of which equals the aggregate Exercise Price due. Shares withheld in payment of the Exercise Price will be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date that the exercise occurs. This automatic exercise will not occur, however, in the following circumstances:

     (a) The Option recipient, on the applicable exercise date, is a member of the Board or an executive officer of the Company or otherwise has a relationship with the Company that would render the automatic exercise provision prohibited with respect to the Option recipient by applicable law; or

- 2 -

     (b) Within 15 days before the applicable exercise date, the Option recipient delivers to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer electronic or written notice (the “Waiver Notice”), in a form authorized by the Company which states that the Option recipient wishes to waive the automatic exercise that is scheduled to occur on the exercise date. Any such waiver will apply to all of the Option Shares for which the Option is exercisable on that exercise date; or

     (c) The Fair Market Value on the date that the exercise would otherwise occur does not at least equal or exceed the Exercise Price; or

     (d) If the Company is advised by its South African tax advisors that, under applicable law, the Option becoming exercisable, in and of itself, does not result in a taxable event to the Employee in the absence of exercising of the Option.

     3.2 Discretionary Exercise. The Option shall be exercisable in the discretion of the Employee on or after May 8, 2007 and prior to termination of the Option in an amount not to exceed the number of Shares for which the Option is then exercisable less the number of Shares previously acquired upon exercise of the Option. Exercise of the Option shall be by means of electronic or written notice (the “Exercise Notice”) in a form authorized by the Company which states the Employee’s election to exercise the Option, the number of whole Shares for which the Option is being exercised, and such other representations and agreements as to the Employee’s investment intent with respect to such Shares as may be required pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Plan, or by applicable law. Further, each Exercise Notice must be (a) signed or otherwise authenticated by the Employee in a manner acceptable to the Company; (b) received by the Company or the Company’s authorized representative, in a manner acceptable to the Company, prior to the termination of the Option as set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement; and (c) accompanied by full payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased. The Option exercise will be effective upon receipt by the Company or the Company’s authorized representative of such electronic or written Exercise Notice and the aggregate Exercise Price.

     3.3 Payment of Exercise Price.

     (a) Forms of Consideration Authorized. Except as otherwise provided below, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares for which the Option is being exercised may be made (i) in cash (U.S. dollars) or cash equivalent acceptable to the Company (including offset against U.S. dollars, if any, owed by the Company to the Employee as of the date of exercise); (ii) if permitted by the Company, by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of whole Shares owned by the Employee, including Shares deliverable upon exercise of the Option; (iii) by means of a Cashless Exercise, as defined in Section 3.3(c) of this Agreement; (iv) if permitted by the Company, with a promissory note in such form as the Company may specify that bears a market rate of interest and is fully recourse; (v) by any other means acceptable to the Company; or (vi) by any combination of the foregoing as may be permitted by the Company, in its sole discretion. Shares tendered in payment of the Exercise Price will be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date that the exercise occurs.

- 3 -

       (b) Limitations on Forms of Consideration.

            (i) Tender of Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of Shares to the extent such tender or attestation would violate any law, regulation, or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company’s stock.

            (ii) Cashless Exercise. A “Cashless Exercise” means the delivery of a properly executed Exercise Notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker in a form acceptable to the Company providing for the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of a sale or loan with respect to some or all of the Shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option pursuant to a program or procedure approved by the Company. The Company reserves the sole and absolute right to establish, decline, suspend, or terminate any such program or procedure, including with respect to the Employee notwithstanding that such program or procedures may be available to others.

     3.4 Company-Assisted Sales of Shares; Grant of Power of Attorney for Sale of Shares. The Employee acknowledges that he or she has been advised that it may be impracticable for the Employee on his or her own to sell, or to arrange for a sale through a broker or otherwise of the Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option. Therefore, the Company expects to assist the Employee in this regard by facilitating the sale of Shares obtained through the exercise of the Option, with the method and timing of such sales to be determined by the Executive Committee of the Company, although the Company has no obligation to do so. However, in the event that the Company does attempt to facilitate any such Share sale, the Company does not represent to the Employee that such sale will be completed, or if it is completed, that Shares will be sold at any particular price or require any particular level of brokerage commissions. The Employee hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Dr. Serge C.P. Belamant and ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, each with full power and authority to act together or alone in any matter hereunder and with full power of substitution, the true and lawful attorneys-in-fact of the Employee (individually an “Attorney” and collectively the “Attorneys”), with full power and authority in the name of, for and on behalf of, the Employee with respect to all matters arising in connection with the sale of the Shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option, including, but not limited to, the power and authority on behalf of the Employee to take any and all of the following actions: (i) to sell such Shares (to be represented by stock option exercise forms executed by the Attorneys) through a broker, including a transaction in which the broker will act as a principal, at a purchase price per Share as determined by negotiation between the Company, the Attorneys, and the broker and to complete, execute, and deliver a stock power in relation to the sale of the Shares; (ii) to execute and deliver any document that may be required in connection with the exercise of the Option and deliver the aggregate Exercise Price and applicable withholding taxes to the Company on behalf of the Employee; (iii) on behalf of the Employee, to make representations and warranties and enter into appropriate agreements to effect the sale of such Shares; (iv) to instruct the Company’s transfer agent as the Attorneys shall determine on all matters pertaining to the delivery and custody of certificates for such Shares; (v) to incur or authorize the incurrence of any necessary or appropriate expense in connection with the sale of such Shares; (vi) if necessary, to endorse (in blank or otherwise) on behalf of the Employee the certificate(s) representing such Shares and a stock power or powers attached to such

- 4 -

certificate(s); and (vii) to sign such other certificates, documents, and agreements and take any and all other actions as the Attorneys may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the power of attorney granted under this Section 3.4. Each Attorney may act alone in exercising the rights and powers conferred on the Attorneys. Each Attorney is hereby empowered to determine in his sole discretion the time or times when, the purpose for and the manner in which any power herein conferred upon him shall be exercised, and the conditions, provisions, or covenants of any instrument or document which may be executed by him pursuant hereto. The power of attorney granted under this Section 3.4 is an agency coupled with an interest and all authority conferred hereby shall be irrevocable, and shall not be terminated by any act of the Employee or by operation of law, whether by the death, disability, or incapacity of the Employee or by the occurrence of any other event or events. It is understood that the Attorneys assume no responsibility or liability for any aspect of offering or selling any Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option and shall not be liable for any error of judgment or for any act done or omitted or for any mistake of fact or law except for the Attorneys’ own gross negligence, willful misconduct, or bad faith. It is understood that the Attorneys, in acting pursuant to this power of attorney, are not acting in a fiduciary capacity on behalf of the Employee and are not required to, nor will they necessarily, obtain the best available price or the lowest possible fee or commission when negotiating or otherwise facilitating any sale of Shares pursuant to this power of attorney. The power of attorney granted under this Section 3.4 shall be binding upon the Employee and the Employee’s heirs, legal representatives, distributees, successors, and assigns.

     3.5 Tax and/or Social Insurance Withholding. At the time any withholding is required by applicable law, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the Employee hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Employee, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for (including by means of a Cashless Exercise to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local, and foreign tax and social insurance withholding obligations of the Company or its affiliate, if any, which arise in connection with the Option. The Company shall have no obligation to deliver Shares until the tax and social insurance withholding obligations of the Company or its affiliate have been satisfied by the Employee. The Company may, in its sole discretion, permit the Employee to satisfy, in whole or in part, any tax and social insurance withholding obligation which may arise in connection with the Option either by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise that number of Shares, or by electing to deliver to the Company already-owned Shares, in either case having a Fair Market Value (as defined below) equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the statutory minimum withholding amount due. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) if the Shares are registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and listed for trading on a national exchange or market, “Fair Market Value” means, as applicable, (a) the closing price on the relevant date, the average of the high and low sale price on the relevant date, or the average of the closing price over a period of up to thirty consecutive days immediately prior to or including the relevant date, as determined in the Company’s discretion, as quoted on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, or the Nasdaq Global Market; (b) the last sale price on the relevant date or the average of the last sale price over a period of up to thirty consecutive days immediately prior to or including the relevant date, as determined in the Committee’s discretion, as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market; (c) the average of the high

- 5 -

bid and low asked prices on the relevant date quoted on the Nasdaq OTC Bulletin Board Service or by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. or a comparable service as determined in the Company’s discretion; or (d) if the Shares are not quoted by any of the above, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on the relevant date furnished by a professional market maker for the Shares, or by such other source, selected by the Company; provided, however, that if an average of prices over a period of days is not applicable and no public trading of the Shares occurs on the relevant date but the Shares are so listed, then Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the earliest preceding date on which trading of the Shares does occur; and (ii) if the Shares on the relevant date are not listed for trading on a national exchange or market, then Fair Market Value shall be the value established by the Company in good faith.

     3.6 Certificate Registration. Physical possession or custody of such stock certificates shall be retained by the Company until such time as the shares are transferable without restriction and, thereafter, the Company shall either issue and deliver to the Employee one or more certificates in the name of the Employee for that number of Shares purchased by the Employee or provide for uncertificated, book entry issuance of those Shares.

     3.7 Restrictions on Issuance of Shares. The issuance of Shares upon exercise are subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of U.S. federal, state, local, or foreign law with respect to such securities. The Option may not be exercised if the issuance of Shares upon exercise would violate any applicable laws or regulations, or any requirement of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Shares may then be listed. In addition, the Option may not be exercised unless (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (ii) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. THE EMPLOYEE IS CAUTIONED THAT THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED. ACCORDINGLY, THE EMPLOYEE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS THEN EXERCISABLE. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares subject to the Option shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the exercise of the Option, the Company may require the Employee to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.

     3.8 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the exercise of the Option.

4. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF THE OPTION.

     During the lifetime of the Employee, the Option shall be exercisable only by the Employee or the Employee’s guardian, legal representative, or attorney-in-fact. The Option shall

- 6 -

not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Employee or the Employee’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Following the death of the Employee, to the extent provided in Section 6 of this Agreement, the Option may be exercised by the Employee’s legal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Employee’s will or under the then-applicable laws of descent and distribution.

5. TERMINATION OF THE OPTION.

     The Option shall terminate and may no longer be exercised after the first to occur of (a) the close of business at the Company’s principal executive office on the Option Expiration Date, (b) the date specified in Section 6 of this Agreement in the event of the termination of the Employee’s employment or other service with the Company (such employment or other service with the Company referred to hereafter as “Service”), or (c) the occurrence of an event described in Section 9.2 of this Agreement to the extent determined by the Company.

6. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE.

     6.1 Option Exercisability. The Option shall terminate immediately upon the Employee’s termination of Service with the Company and its affiliates to the extent that it is not exercisable on the date such Service terminates. To the extent the Option is exercisable on the date such Service terminates, whether or not such portion of the Option shall continue to be exercisable after such termination shall be determined in accordance with the remaining provisions of this Section 6.

            (a) Disability. If the Employee’s Service terminates because of the Employee’s Disability (as defined below), (i) the portion of the Option that is not then exercisable shall terminate immediately, and (ii) the portion of the Option that is then exercisable shall remain exercisable during the six-month period following such termination of Service, but in no event beyond the Expiration Date of the Option. Unless sooner terminated, any remaining unexercised portion of the Option shall terminate upon the expiration of such six-month period For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means the inability of the Employee to perform in all material respects the Employee’s duties and responsibilities to the Company, or any affiliate of the Company, by reason of a physical or mental disability or infirmity which inability is reasonably expected to be permanent and has continued (i) for a period of six consecutive months or (ii) such shorter period as the Company may reasonably determine in good faith. The Disability determination shall be in the sole discretion of the Company and the Employee (or the Employee’s representative) shall furnish the Company with medical evidence documenting the Employee’s disability or infirmity which is satisfactory to the Company.

            (b) Death. If the Employee’s Service terminates because of the death of the Employee, (i) the portion of the Option that is not then exercisable shall terminate immediately, and (ii) the portion of the Option that is then exercisable shall remain exercisable, by the Employee’s legal representative or other person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by reason of the Employee’s death, during the six-month period following such termination of Service, but in no event beyond the Expiration Date of the Option. Unless sooner

- 7 -

terminated, any remaining unexercised portion of the Option shall terminate upon the expiration of such six-month period.

            (c) No-Fault Termination. If the Employee’s Service terminates because of a No-Fault Termination, (i) the portion of the Option that is not then exercisable shall terminate immediately, and (ii) the portion of the Option that is then exercisable shall remain exercisable during the 30-day period following such termination of Service, but in no event beyond the Expiration Date of the Option. Unless sooner terminated, any remaining unexercised portion of the Option shall terminate upon the expiration of such 30-day period. “No-Fault Termination” means the termination of the Employee’s Service for any reason (other than Disability or death) based on (i) the constructive dismissal of the Employee, (ii) the early or compulsory retirement of the Employee in terms of the rules of any relevant Company or affiliate retirement fund, (iii) the operational requirements of the Company or its affiliate, or (iv) termination by mutual agreement. No-Fault Termination shall not include any voluntary termination of Service by the Employee other than for the reasons described in clauses (i) through (iv) of the preceding sentence or any termination of the Employee’s Service due to the Employee’s misconduct or other misdemeanor.

     6.2 Other Termination of Service. If the Employee’s Service terminates for any reason, except Disability, death, or No-Fault Termination, the Option shall terminate on the date the Employee’s Service terminates.

7. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE, OR CONSULTANT.

     The Employee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by the Option until the date of the issuance of the Shares for which the Option has been exercised (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions, or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued. The Employee understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between the Company or an affiliate and the Employee, the Employee’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified term. Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan shall confer upon the Employee any right to continue in the Service of the Company or an affiliate or interfere in any way with any right of the Company or an affiliate to terminate the Employee’s Service as a director, an employee, or consultant, as the case may be, at any time.

8. LEGENDS.

     The Company may at any time place legends referencing any restrictions on transfer and any applicable U.S. federal, state, or foreign securities law restrictions on all certificates representing Shares subject to the provisions of this Agreement. The Employee shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing Shares acquired pursuant to the Option in the possession of the Employee in order to carry out the provisions of this Section.

9. ADJUSTMENTS FOR CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER EVENTS.

     9.1 Stock Dividend, Stock Split, and Reverse Stock Split. In the event of a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the common stock of the Company, the number of shares covered by and the exercise price and other terms of the Option, shall, without further action of the Board of Directors of the Company, be adjusted to reflect such event. The Company shall make appropriate adjustments, in its discretion, to address the treatment of fractional shares and fractional cents that arise with respect to adjustment of the Option as a result of the stock dividend, stock split, or reverse stock split.

     9.2 Significant Corporate Transaction. In the event of a significant corporate transaction such as a sale of voting stock, merger, sale of substantial assets, or other similar corporate event involving the Company, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to (A) cancel the Option for fair value (as determined in the sole discretion of the Company) which may, but need not be, equal to the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration to be paid in such corporate transaction to holders of the same number of Shares subject to the unexercised Option (or, if no consideration is paid in any such transaction, the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Option) over the aggregate exercise price of the Option or (B) provide for the issuance of substitute options that will substantially preserve the otherwise applicable terms of the Option as determined by the Company in its sole discretion or (C) provide that for a period of at least 15 days prior to the consummation of such corporate transaction, the Option shall be exercisable as to all shares subject thereto and that upon the consummation of such corporate transaction, the Option shall terminate and be of no further force and effect. The Company may treat the portion of the Option that is exercisable as of the date of the corporate transaction differently than the unexercisable portion and, in this regard, may cause the unexercisable portion of the Option to be canceled without consideration as of or immediately before the effective time of the transaction in its sole discretion.

     9.3 Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The Company is authorized to make, in its discretion and without the Employee’s consent, adjustments in the terms and conditions of the Option in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Company determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Agreement.

10. INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS.

The Employee represents, warrants, and covenants that:

            (a) Any Shares purchased upon exercise of this Option shall be acquired for the Employee’s account for investment only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution of the Shares in violation of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation under the Securities Act, and that the Employee will not distribute the same in violation of any state or federal law or regulation.

            (d) The Employee understands that (i) the Shares that may be acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Option are not currently registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act; (ii) such Shares cannot be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act, and such registration or qualification as may be necessary under the securities laws of any state, or an exemption from registration is then available; and (iii) the Company has no obligation to register any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Option under the Securities Act.

     11.8 No Future Entitlement.

Neither this Agreement nor any provision thereunder shall be construed so as to grant the Employee any right to remain in the Service of the Company.

     11.9 Personal Data. For the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing the Option, the Employee, by execution of this Agreement, consents to the collection, receipt, use, retention, and transfer, in electronic or other form, of his or her personal data by and among the Company and its third party vendors. The Employee understands that personal data (including but not limited to, name, home address, telephone number, employee number, employment status, social security number, tax identification number, job, and payroll location, data for tax withholding purposes, and Shares awarded, cancelled, exercised, vested, and unvested) may be transferred to third parties assisting in the implementation, administration, and management of the Option and the Employee expressly authorizes such transfer as well as the retention, use, and the subsequent transfer of the data by the recipient(s). The Employee understands that these recipients may be located in the Employee’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Employee’s country. The Employee understands that data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Option. The Employee understands that he or she may, at any time, request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the personal data, view data, request additional information about the storage and processing of data, require any necessary amendments to data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Company’s legal department representative. The Employee understands, however, that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect his or her ability to accept an Option.

     11.10 The Company’s Rights. The existence of the Option shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company's capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Shares or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company's assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
