(a) Automatic Equity Grants.
(i) Initial Grant for New Directors. Without any further action of the Board, each person who, after the Effective Date, is elected or appointed for the first time to be a Non-Employee Director will automatically, upon the date of his or her initial election or appointment to be a Non-Employee Director, be granted (A) a Nonstatutory Stock Option to purchase a number of shares of common stock having an Option Value (as defined below) of $80,000 (the Initial Option Grant) and (B) restricted stock units (RSUs) with an RSU Value (as defined below) of $80,000 (the Initial RSU Grant and, together with the Initial Option Grant, the Initial Grants), multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that will elapse between the Non-Employee Directors date of initial appointment or election and the first anniversary of the date of grant of the Companys most recent Annual Grants (as defined below) and the denominator of which is 365. Each Initial Option Grant and Initial RSU Grant will vest on August 15th following the first anniversary of the date of grant of the Companys most recent Annual Grants, subject to the Non-Employee Directors Continuous Service (as defined in the Plan) through such date.
(ii) Annual Grant. Without any further action of the Board, at the close of business on the date of each Annual Meeting following the Effective Date, each person who is then a Non-Employee Director will automatically be granted (A) a Nonstatutory Stock Option to purchase a number of shares of common stock having an Option Value of $80,000 (the Annual Option Grant) and (B) RSUs with an RSU Value of $80,000 (the Annual RSU Grant and, together with the Annual Option Grant, the Annual Grants). Each Annual Grant will vest on August 15th of the calendar year following the year in which such Annual Grants are made, subject to the Non-Employee Directors Continuous Service through such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Non-Employee Director who served on the Board prior to the Effective Date, shall not be awarded any Annual Grants until the later of (A) the first Annual Meeting in calendar year 2016 and (B) the first Annual Meeting occurring at least three years following the date such Non-Employee Director commenced his or her service on the Board.
(b) Vesting; Change of Control. All vesting is subject to the Non-Employee Directors Continuous Service on each applicable vesting date. Notwithstanding the foregoing vesting schedules, for each Non-Employee Director who remains in Continuous Service with the Company until immediately prior to the closing of a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan), the shares subject to his or her then-outstanding equity awards that were granted pursuant to this policy will become fully vested immediately prior to the closing of such Change of Control.
(c) Calculation of Option Value and Value of a Restricted Stock Unit Award. The Option Value of a stock option to be granted under this policy will be determined using the same method the Company uses to calculate the grant-date fair value of stock options in its financial statements, except that no provision shall be made for estimated forfeitures related to service-based vesting. The RSU Value of an RSU award to be granted under this policy will be determined based on the Fair Market Value per share on the grant date.

(d) Remaining Terms. The remaining terms and conditions of each stock option or RSU, including transferability, will be as set forth in the Companys standard Option Agreement or form of RSU Award Agreement, as applicable, in each case in the form adopted from time to time by the Board.
Expenses
The Company will reimburse Non-Employee Director for ordinary, necessary and reasonable out-of-pocket travel expenses to cover in-person attendance at and participation in Board and committee meetings; provided, that the Non-Employee Director timely submit to the Company appropriate documentation substantiating such expenses in accordance with the Companys travel and expense policy, as in effect from time to time.
