No portion of this Option, which is not exercisable on the date of your termination of employment with the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates will become exercisable after such termination.

Subject to your continued employment through such date, shares that become exercisable will remain available for purchase until the expiration date of [DATE]. However, except as specified below, this Option will terminate immediately if you cease to be employed by the Company, including its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, for any reason.

This Option shall terminate in full to the extent not exercised within such sixty-day period. Termination for Cause will result in the immediate cancellation of all unexercised options awarded.
