If there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall govern. All capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Plan.
4. Exercise Price. The exercise price of each share underlying the Option hereby granted is $ .
5. Vesting Date.
(a) The Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares underlying the Option on each of the first four anniversaries of the Grant Date (each such anniversary, a “Vesting Date”) subject to the Participant continuing to actively and without interruption remain Employed through each such Vesting Date.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any portion of the Option that is not vested and exercisable as of immediately prior to a Change in Control and that has not expired shall immediately vest and become exercisable as of such Change in Control.
6. Expiration Date; Net Exercise. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Option or any portion thereof which has not become exercisable pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement (taking into account any acceleration of exercisability as provided therein) shall expire on the earlier of (i) the date the Participant’s Employment is terminated for any reason or (ii) the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, with respect to any Option or any portion thereof which has become exercisable, the Option (or portion thereof) shall expire on the earlier of: (i) one year after the Date of Termination of the Participant’s Employment on account of death or Disability, by the Participant for Good Reason or by the Company without Cause or as a result of the Company’s election not to extend the term of the Participant’s effective employment agreement, if any, (ii) the commencement of business on the date the Participant’s Employment is, or is deemed to have been, terminated for Cause; (iii) 90 days after the date the Participant’s Employment is terminated by the Participant without Good Reason or as a result of the non-renewal of the term by the Participant of the Participant’s effective employment agreement, if any; or (iv) the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date. During the one-year period described in clause (i) above, the Participant shall be permitted to exercise the Option on a net basis (e.g., by satisfying the exercise price and minimum statutory withholding tax obligations by having withheld a number of Option shares that have a fair market value equal to such obligations).
7. Construction of Agreement. Any provision of this Agreement (or portion thereof) which is deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction and subject to this section, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining provisions thereof in such jurisdiction or rendering that or any other provisions of this Agreement invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction. If any covenant should be deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable because its scope is considered excessive, such covenant shall be modified so that the scope of the covenant is reduced only to the minimum extent necessary to render the modified covenant valid, legal and enforceable. No waiver of any provision or violation of this Agreement by the Company shall be implied by the Company’s forbearance or failure to take action.
8. Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party hereto upon any breach or default of any party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party or any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, shall be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.
9. Limitation on Transfer. During the lifetime of the Participant, the Option shall be exercisable only by the Participant.
