Any Shares subject to Awards granted with an exercise price less than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant of such Awards will be counted against the numerical limits of this Section 3 as 1.5 Shares for every one Share subject thereto.  Further, if Shares acquired pursuant to any such Award are forfeited or repurchased by the Company and would otherwise return to the Plan pursuant to Section 3(c), 1.5 times the number of Shares so forfeited or repurchased will return to the Plan and will again become available for issuance.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;text-indent:96px;"><font style="text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;padding-right:48px;">(c)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;text-decoration:underline;">Lapsed Awards</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">.  If an Award expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, or, with respect to Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares or Performance Units, is forfeited to or repurchased by the Company, the unpurchased Shares (or for Awards other than Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, the forfeited or repurchased Shares) which were subject thereto will become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated).  With respect to Stock Appreciation Rights, all of the Shares covered by the Award (that is, Shares actually issued pursuant to a Stock Appreciation Right, as well as the Shares that represent payment of the exercise price) shall cease to be available under the Plan.  However, Shares that have actually been issued under the Plan under any Award will not be returned to the Plan and will not become available for future distribution under the Plan; provided, however, that if unvested Shares of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares or Performance Units are repurchased by the Company or are forfeited to the Company, such Shares will become available for future grant under the Plan.  Shares used to pay the tax and exercise price of an Award will not become available for future grant or sale under the Plan.  To the extent an Award under the Plan is paid out in cash rather than Shares, such cash payment will not result in reducing the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing and, subject to adjustment provided in Section&#160;15, the maximum number of Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options shall equal the aggregate Share number stated in Section&#160;3(a), plus, to the extent allowable under Section&#160;422 of the Code, any Shares that become available for issuance under the Plan under this Section&#160;3(c).</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;text-indent:96px;"><font style="text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;padding-right:48px;">(d)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;text-decoration:underline;">Share Reserve</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">.

Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, in connection with a Participant&#8217;s initial service as an Employee, an Employee may be granted Options covering up to an additional 1,000,000 Shares.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;text-indent:96px;"><font style="text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;padding-right:48px;">(c)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;text-decoration:underline;">Term of Option</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">.

Moreover, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Incentive Stock Option will be five (5) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;text-indent:96px;"><font style="text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;padding-right:48px;">(d)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;text-decoration:underline;">Option Exercise Price and Consideration</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;text-indent:168px;"><font style="text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;padding-right:24px;">(i)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;text-decoration:underline;">Exercise Price</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">.

In addition, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price will be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.  The exercise price for an Option may not be reduced without the consent of the Company&#8217;s stockholders.  This will include, without limitation, a repricing of the Option as well as an Option exchange program whereby the Participant agrees to cancel an existing Option in exchange for an Option, Stock Appreciation Right or other Award.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-left:0px;text-align:justify;text-indent:168px;"><font style="text-align:justify;font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;padding-right:24px;">(ii)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;text-decoration:underline;">Waiting Period and Exercise Dates</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">.
