Article V

Terms of Options

Section 5.1            Grant of Options.  The Board may grant Options to Participants at such time or times as it shall determine.  Options granted pursuant to the Plan will not be “incentive stock options” as defined in the Code.  Each Option granted to a Participant shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement that shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased pursuant to such Option, the exercise price at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased pursuant to such Option, the duration of such Option (not to exceed the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date), and such other terms as the Board shall determine.

Section 5.2            Exercise Price.  The exercise price per share of Common Stock to be purchased upon exercise of an Option shall not be less than the Fair Market Value on the Grant Date.

Section 5.3            Vesting and Exercise of Options.  Options shall become vested or exercisable in accordance with the vesting schedule or upon the attainment of such performance criteria as shall be specified by the Board on or before the Grant Date.  The Board may accelerate the vesting or exercisability of any Option, all Options or any class of Options at any time and from time to time.

Section 5.4            Payment.  The Board shall establish procedures governing the exercise of Options, which procedures shall generally require that prior written notice of exercise be given and that the exercise price (together with any required withholding taxes or other similar taxes, charges or fees) be paid in full in cash, cash equivalents or other readily available funds at the time of exercise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, on such terms as the Board may establish from time to time following a Public Offering (i) the Board may permit a Participant to tender any Common Stock such Participant has owned for at least six months and one day for all or a portion of the applicable exercise price or minimum required withholding taxes, and (ii) the Board may authorize the Company to establish a broker-assisted exercise program.  In connection with any Option exercise, the Company may require the Participant to furnish or execute such other documents as it shall reasonably deem necessary to (a) evidence such exercise, (b) determine whether registration is then required under the U.S. federal securities laws or similar non-U.S. laws, or (c) comply with or satisfy the requirements of the U.S. federal securities laws, applicable state or non-U.S. securities laws or any other law.  As a condition to the exercise of any Option before a Public Offering, a Participant shall enter into a Subscription Agreement.

Article VI

Termination of Employment

Section 6.1            Expiration of Options Following Termination of Employment.  Unless otherwise determined by the Board on or before the Grant Date, if a Participant’s employment with the Company terminates, such Participant’s Options shall be treated as follows:

(a)           any unvested Options shall terminate effective as of such termination of employment (determined without regard to any statutory or deemed or express contractual notice period); provided that if the Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated in a Special Termination (i.e., by reason of the Employee’s death or Disability), any unvested Options held by the Employee that by their terms would vest solely based on continued employment shall immediately vest as of the effective date of such Special Termination;

(b)           except in the case of a termination for Cause, vested Options shall remain exercisable through the earliest of (i) the normal expiration date, (ii) the three-month anniversary of the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment (determined without regard to any statutory or deemed or express contractual notice period), (iii) the one-year anniversary in the case of a Special Termination or a retirement at normal retirement age or later), and (iv) any cancellation pursuant to Section 7.1; and

(c)           in the case of a termination for Cause, any and all Options held by such Participant (whether or not then vested or exercisable) shall terminate immediately upon such termination of employment.

Section 6.2            Certain Rights upon Termination of Employment Prior to a Public Offering.  Each Subscription Agreement shall provide that the Company and one or more of the Investors shall have successive rights prior to a Public Offering to purchase all or any portion of a Participant’s Common Stock upon any termination of employment (determined without regard to any statutory or deemed or express contractual notice period), at such time and at a purchase price per share equal to the Fair Market Value as of the date specified in the Subscription Agreement (or, if the Participant’s employment termination qualifies as a termination for Cause, for a purchase price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value as of the date specified in the Subscription Agreement and (ii) such Participant’s per share purchase price).  The Board may provide in a Subscription Agreement that following a Participant’s Special Termination,

4

retirement at or after normal retirement age or termination of employment by the Company without Cause in each case prior to a Public Offering, such Participant may require the Company to repurchase all (but not less than all) of such Participant’s Common Stock (but excluding any shares acquired on exercise of an Option), at such time and at a purchase price per share equal to the Fair Market Value as of the date specified in the Subscription Agreement, subject to the Company having the ability to do so under the terms of its financing agreements.

Article VII

Change in Control

Section 7.1            Accelerated Vesting and Payment.  Except as otherwise provided in this Article VII, and unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, upon a Change in Control, (a) each Award that by its terms would otherwise vest based solely on continued employment shall vest in full in connection with such Change in Control and each other Award shall, to the extent it has not or will not by its terms vest before or in connection with such Change in Control, be canceled, and (b) the holder of any vested Award (including any Award that vests in connection with such Change in Control) shall be entitled to receive, in complete satisfaction of such Award, a payment in cash or readily marketable securities in an amount or with a value equal to the number of shares of Common Stock covered by such vested Award times the excess, if any, of the Change in Control Price over any applicable exercise price or reference price, if any, for such Award.

Section 7.2            Alternative Award.  No cancellation, acceleration or other payment shall occur with respect to any Award or class or type of Award if the Board reasonably determines in good faith, prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control, that such Award shall be honored or assumed, or new rights substituted therefor following the Change in Control (such honored, assumed or substituted award, an “Alternative Award”); provided that any Alternative Award must:

(a)           give the Participant who held such Award rights and entitlements substantially equivalent to or better than the rights and terms applicable under such Award, including, but not limited to, an identical or better exercise and vesting schedule, identical or better timing and methods of payment and, if the Alternative Award or the securities underlying it are not publicly-traded, identical or better rights following a termination of employment to require the Company or the acquiror in such Change in

5

Control to repurchase the Alternative Award or securities underlying such Alternative Award; and

(b)           have terms such that if, within two years following a Change in Control, a Participant’s employment is involuntarily or constructively terminated (other than for Cause), such Alternative Award shall immediately vest in full and such Participant shall receive a cash payment equal to the excess (if any) of the fair market value of the stock subject to the Alternative Award on the date of surrender over the price that such Participant would be required to pay to exercise such Alternative Award or shall have an immediate right to exercise such Alternative Award and receive shares that are then publicly traded.

Section 7.3            Limitation of Benefits.  If, whether as a result of accelerated vesting, the grant of an Alternative Award or otherwise, a Participant would receive any payment, deemed payment or other benefit as a result of the operation of Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 that, together with any other payment, deemed payment or other benefit a Participant may receive under any other plan, program, policy or arrangement, would constitute an “excess parachute payment” under section 280G of the Code, then, notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the payments, deemed payments or other benefits such Participant would otherwise receive under Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 shall be reduced to the extent necessary to eliminate any such excess parachute payment and such Participant shall have no further rights or claims with respect thereto.  If the preceding sentence would result in a reduction of the payments, deemed payments or other benefits a Participant would otherwise receive in more than an immaterial amount, the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to seek the approval of the Company’s shareholders in the manner provided for in section 280G(b)(5) of the Code and the regulations thereunder with respect to such reduced payments or other benefits (if the Company is eligible to do so), so that such payments would not be treated as “parachute payments” for these purposes (and therefore would cease to be subject to reduction pursuant to this Section 7.3), and, if seeking such approval, the Company shall submit all Participants for whom such approval is sought as a single slate to the shareholders and not individually.  This Section 7.3 shall cease to apply if the stock of the Company or any direct or indirect parent or subsidiary of the Company becomes readily tradable on an established securities market or otherwise within the meaning of 26 CFR 1.280G-1, Q/A-6.

Article VIII

Deferred Share Units

The Board may provide for the grant of Deferred Share Units to Participants at such time or times and subject to such conditions as it shall determine.  No shares of Common Stock will be issued at the time an award of Deferred Share Units is made and the Company shall not be required to set aside a fund for the payment of any such award.

Article IX

Director Share Awards

Director Share Awards may have such terms as the Board shall determine from time to time, and may be granted as part of the retainer or other fees payable to an Eligible Director or as part of an arrangement that permits the deferral of payment of such fees, on a mandatory or elective basis, into the right to receive Common Stock and distributions thereon in the future (or a cash payment measured by reference to the value thereof).

Article X

Authority to Vary Terms or Establish Local Jurisdiction Plans

The Board may vary the terms of Awards to be granted under the Plan, or establish sub-plans under this Plan to authorize the grant of awards that have additional or different terms or features from those otherwise provided for in the Plan, if and to the extent the Board determines necessary or appropriate to permit the grant of awards that are best suited to further the purposes of the Plan and to comply with applicable securities laws in a particular jurisdiction or provide terms appropriately suited for Employees in such jurisdiction in light of the tax laws of such jurisdiction while being as consistent as otherwise possible with the terms of Awards under the Plan; provided that this Article X shall not be deemed to authorize any increase in the number of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan set forth in Section 3.1.

7

Article XI

Amendment, Modification, and Termination of the Plan

The Board may terminate or suspend the Plan at any time, and may amend or modify the Plan from time to time.  No amendment, modification, termination or suspension of the Plan shall in any manner adversely affect any Award theretofore granted under the Plan without the consent of the Participant holding such Award or the consent of a majority of Participants holding similar Awards (such majority to be determined based on the number of shares covered by such Awards).  Shareholder approval of any such amendment, modification, termination or suspension shall be obtained to the extent mandated by applicable law, or if otherwise deemed appropriate by the Board.

Section 13.2          Tax Withholding.  The Company or the Subsidiary employing a Participant shall have the power to withhold up to the minimum statutory requirement, or to require such Participant to remit to the Company or such Subsidiary, an amount sufficient to satisfy all U.S. federal, state, local and any non-U.S. withholding tax or other governmental tax, charge or fee requirements in respect of any Award granted under the Plan.

14

Section 13.3          Beneficiary Designation.  Pursuant to such rules and procedures as the Board may from time to time establish, a Participant may name a beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) by whom any right under the Plan is to be exercised in case of such Participant’s death.  Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form reasonably prescribed by the Board, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Board during his lifetime.

Section 13.4          No Guarantee of Employment or Participation.  Nothing in the Plan or in any agreement granted hereunder shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate any Participant’s employment or retention at any time, or confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ or retention of the Company or any Subsidiary.  No Employee or Eligible Director shall have a right to be selected as a Participant or, having been so selected, to receive any Awards.

Section 13.5          No Limitation on Compensation; No Impact on Benefits.  Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to establish other plans or to pay compensation to its Employees or Eligible Directors, in cash or property, in a manner that is not expressly authorized under the Plan.  Except as may otherwise be specifically and unequivocally stated under any employee benefit plan, policy or program, no amount payable in respect of any Award shall be treated as compensation for purposes of calculating a Participant’s rights under any such plan, policy or program.  The selection of an Employee as a Participant shall neither entitle such Employee to, nor disqualify such Employee from, participation in any other award or incentive plan.

Section 13.6          No Voting Rights.  Except as otherwise required by law, no Participant holding any Awards granted under the Plan shall have any right in respect of such Awards to vote on any matter submitted to the Company’s stockholders until such time as the shares of Common Stock underlying such Awards have been issued, and then, subject to the voting restrictions contained in the Subscription Agreement.

15

Section 13.8          Freedom of Action.  Nothing in the Plan or any Award Agreement evidencing an Award shall be construed as limiting or preventing the Company or any Subsidiary from taking any action that it deems appropriate or in its best interest (as determined in its sole and absolute discretion) and no Participant (or person claiming by or through a Participant) shall have any right relating to the diminishment in the value of any Award as a result of any such action.

Section 13.9          Unfunded Plan; Plan Not Subject to ERISA.  The Plan is an unfunded plan and Participants shall have the status of unsecured creditors of the Company.  The Plan is not intended to be subject to the Employee Retirement Income and Security Act of 1974, as amended.

Section 13.10       Term of Plan.  The Plan shall be effective as of November 20, 2007, (the “Effective Date”) and shall continue in effect, unless sooner terminated pursuant to Article XI, until the tenth anniversary of such date.  The provisions of the Plan shall continue thereafter to govern all outstanding Awards.

Section 13.11       Governing Law.  The Plan, and all agreements hereunder, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware regardless of the application of rules of conflict of law that would apply the laws of any other jurisdiction.
