1.Initial Grants: For each Eligible Director who is first elected or appointed to the Board following the Effective Date, on the date of such Eligible Director’s initial election or appointment to the Board (or, if such date is not a market trading day, the first market trading day thereafter), the Eligible Director will automatically, and without further action by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board, be granted a stock option to purchase 99,600 shares of Common Stock (the “Initial Grant”). The shares subject to each Initial Grant will vest over a three-year period, with 1/36th of the shares subject to the Initial Grant vesting in equal monthly installments following the date of grant, such that the option is fully vested on the third anniversary of the date of grant, subject to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Service (as defined in the Plan) through each such vesting date, and will vest in full upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), subject to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Service through such date.
2.Annual Grants: On the date of each annual stockholder meeting of the Company held after the Effective Date, each Eligible Director who continues to serve as a non-employee member of the Board following such stockholder meeting (excluding any Eligible Director who is first appointed or elected by the Board at such meeting) will automatically, and without further action by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board, be granted a stock option to purchase 49,800 shares of Common Stock (the “Annual Grant”). The shares subject to the Annual Grant will vest in full on the first anniversary of the date of grant, subject to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Service through such vesting date; provided, that the Annual Grant will in any case be fully vested on the date of Company’s next annual stockholder meeting, subject to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Service through such vesting date; provided, further, that the Annual Grant will vest in full upon a Change in Control, subject to the Eligible Director’s Continuous Service through such date. With respect to an Eligible Director who, following the Effective Date, was first elected or appointed to the Board on a date other than the date of the Company’s annual stockholder meeting, upon the Company’s first annual stockholder meeting following such Eligible Director’s first joining the Board, such Eligible Director’s first Annual Grant will be pro-rated to reflect the time between such Eligible Director’s election or appointment date and the date of such first annual stockholder meeting.
