Proxy Statement
 
Annual Meeting of Shareholders
To Be Held May 18, 2007
 
INFORMATION CONCERNING SOLICITATION AND VOTING
Shareholders Meeting
     This Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card (“Proxy”) are furnished on behalf of the Board of Directors of Manhattan Associates, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the “Company,” “our” or “we”), to solicit proxies for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on Friday, May 18, 2007, at 9:00 a.m., Atlanta, Georgia time (the “Annual Meeting”), or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, for the purposes set forth herein and in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting will be held at 2300 Windy Ridge Parkway, Atlanta, Georgia 30339. The Company intends to mail this Proxy Statement and the accompanying Proxy on or about April 18, 2007, to all shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.
Shareholders Entitled to Vote
     Only holders of record of the Company’s $.01 par value per share common stock (the “Common Stock”) at the close of business on March 30, 2007 will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on March 30, 2007, the Company had outstanding and entitled to vote 26,862,737 shares of Common Stock. Each holder of record of Common Stock on such date will be entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting. Any shareholder who signs and returns a Proxy has the power to revoke it at any time before it is voted at the Annual Meeting by providing written notice of revocation to the Secretary of the Company, by filing with the Secretary of the Company a Proxy bearing a later date, or by voting through the Internet or in person at the Annual Meeting. The holders of a majority of the total shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date, whether present at the Annual Meeting in person, voting though the Internet or represented by Proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. The shares held by each shareholder who signs and returns the enclosed Proxy will be counted for the purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the meeting, whether or not the shareholder abstains on all or any matter to be acted on at the meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes both will be counted toward fulfillment of quorum requirements. A broker non-vote occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that proposal and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.
Counting of Votes
     The purpose of the Annual Meeting is to consider and act upon the matters that are listed in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and set forth in this Proxy Statement. The enclosed Proxy provides a means for a shareholder to vote upon each of the matters listed in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and described in the Proxy Statement, including a means for a shareholder to vote for all of the nominees for Director listed thereon or to withhold authority to vote for one or more of such nominees. The Company’s Bylaws provide that Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast. Plurality means that the nominees who receive the most votes for the available directorships will be elected as Directors. Accordingly, the withholding of authority by a

 


Table of Contents

shareholder will not be counted in computing a plurality and thus will have no effect on the results of the election of such nominees.
     The accompanying Proxy also provides a means for a shareholder to vote for, against or abstain from voting on the other matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. Each Proxy will be voted in accordance with the shareholder’s directions. Approval of our 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007 and approval of any other matters as may properly come before the meeting will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present in person or represented by a Proxy and entitled to vote at the meeting and voting on the proposal. Accordingly, abstentions with respect to such proposals will have no effect on the results of the vote with respect to the proposals. With respect to broker non-votes, the shares will not be considered to be voting with respect to the proposal to which authority was withheld. Consequently, broker non-votes will not be counted with regard to such proposals, but they will have the effect of reducing the number of affirmative votes required to approve the proposals, because they reduce the number of shares voting from which a majority is calculated.
Proxies
     When the enclosed Proxy is properly signed and returned, the shares that it represents will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions noted thereon. In the absence of such instructions, the shares represented by a signed Proxy will be voted in favor of the nominees for election to the Board of Directors and in favor of approval of our 2007 Stock Incentive Plan and the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm.
Proxy Solicitation Costs
     The Company will bear the entire cost of soliciting proxies to be voted at the Annual Meeting, including the preparation, printing and mailing of proxy materials. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, solicitation may be made by certain directors, officers and other employees of the Company by personal interview, telephone, telegram or facsimile. No additional compensation will be paid to such persons for such solicitation. We have also hired Georgeson, Inc. to distribute and solicit proxies. We will pay Georgeson, Inc. $7,500, plus reasonable expenses, for these services. The Company will reimburse brokers, banks and other nominees for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding the proxy materials to their customers who are beneficial owners.

Non-employee members of the Board of Directors receive an annual retainer of $35,000 payable in quarterly installments on the first business day of each quarter. All non-employee members of the Board of Directors received $1,500 for each board meeting attended in 2006 and $1,500 for each committee meeting held independently of a board meeting. In 2006, we granted to each non-employee director stock options to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock at the beginning of each quarter during which they served as a director. All of these options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant, are exercisable immediately and have a term of seven years. Any non-employee director who joins the Board of Directors in the future will be entitled to a one time grant of $30,000 of restricted stock, vesting in equal installments over the remainder of the director’s initial elected term.
     The following table sets forth, for the year ended December 31, 2006, the total compensation earned for our non-employee members of the Board of Directors. The Company does not have any non-equity incentive, pension, or nonqualified deferred compensation plans and has therefore omitted the corresponding columns.

     Beginning in 2007, in lieu of granting to each non-employee director stock options to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock at the beginning of each quarter during which they served as a director, we have granted to each non-employee director stock options to purchase 2,500 shares of Common Stock and 833 restricted shares of Common Stock at the beginning of each quarter during which they served as a director. The options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant, are exercisable immediately and have a term of seven years, and the restricted shares vest immediately upon grant.
Board of Directors Committees
     The Board of Directors has established three permanent committees that have certain responsibilities for our governance and management. They include the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nomination and Governance Committee. Charters for the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nomination and Governance Committee can be found in the Investor Relations section of our web site at www.manh.com.
     Audit Committee. During 2006, the Audit Committee consisted of Messrs. Huntz, Goodwin and Noonan. Mr. Huntz serves as Chairman of the Audit Committee. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee meets the independence and experience requirements applicable to members of the Audit Committee of a NASDAQ-traded company, as well as the Audit Committee independence standards established by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Further, the Board has determined that Messrs. Huntz, Goodwin and Noonan are “audit committee financial experts,” as defined by the rules of the Commission. The Audit Committee recommends the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm, reviews the scope of the audit to be conducted by them, as well as the results of their audit, reviews the scope of our internal system of controls, appraises our financial reporting activities (including our proxy statement and annual report) and the accounting standards and principles followed. The Audit Committee also reviews and discusses with management and our independent registered public accounting firm various topics and events that may have significant financial impact on the Company, and reviews and discusses with management major financial risk exposure and steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposure. Additionally, the Audit Committee reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of our internal controls, internal audit procedures, and disclosure controls and procedures, and management reports thereon. The Chairman of the Audit Committee is to be contacted by the Chief Financial Officer or the independent registered public accounting firm to review items of a sensitive nature that can impact the accuracy of financial reporting, and to discuss significant issues relative to overall Board responsibility that have been communicated to management, but may warrant follow up to the Audit Committee. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, the Audit Committee met four times.
     Compensation Committee. During 2006, the Compensation Committee consisted of Messrs. Noonan, Huntz and Cassidy. Mr. Noonan serves as Chairman of the Compensation Committee. The Board of Directors has determined that all members of the Compensation Committee meet the independence requirements of the NASDAQ corporate governance rules. The Compensation Committee approves the compensation and benefits of all of our executive officers, reviews general policies relating to compensation and benefits of our employees and makes recommendations concerning certain of these matters to the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee also administers our stock option plans and establishes the terms and conditions of all stock options granted under these plans. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, the Compensation Committee met four times.
     Nominating and Governance Committee. Established on July 17, 2003, our Nominating and Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”) consists of Messrs. Goodwin, Cassidy and Huntz. Mr. Goodwin serves as Chairman of the Nominating Committee. The Board of Directors has determined that all members of the Nominating Committee meet the independence requirements of the NASDAQ corporate governance rules. The Nominating Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors to identify and assist in recruiting outstanding individuals who qualify to serve as Board members and to recommend that the Board select a slate of director nominees for election by our shareholders at each annual meeting of our shareholders in accordance with our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and Georgia law; to recommend directors for appointment to each Board committee; to review the performance of the Board and its committees and make appropriate recommendations; and to oversee our corporate governance guidelines and periodically re-evaluate such corporate governance guidelines for the purpose of suggesting changes if appropriate.

Table of Contents

     As appropriate, the Nominating Committee actively seeks, interviews and evaluates individuals qualified to become Board members for recommendation to the Board of Directors, has the power to hire legal, accounting, financial or other advisors as it may deem necessary in its judgment, has the sole authority to retain and terminate any search firm to be used to identify director candidates and has sole authority to approve the search firm’s fees and other retention terms. In addition, the Nominating Committee periodically reviews the independence of each director, as such term is interpreted under the applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the applicable rules of The Nasdaq National Market, Inc. periodically reviews and assesses the performance of the Board and its committees and reports such assessment, including any recommendations for proposed changes, to the Board, periodically reviews and reassesses the adequacy of our corporate governance guidelines and recommends any proposed changes to the Board, periodically makes reports to the Board regarding the committee’s evaluation of the Board members, its committees and members thereof and the corporate governance guidelines, and periodically reviews and reassesses the adequacy of the Nominating Committee Charter and recommends any proposed changes to the Board of Directors. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, the Nominating Committee met four times.
     In accordance with the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, shareholders may directly nominate prospective director candidates by delivering to our Corporate Secretary certain information about the nominee (reflecting the disclosure requirements of the SEC’s proxy rules concerning nominees for directorships) no less than 90 days and no more than 120 days in advance of the first anniversary of the prior year’s annual meeting. The Nominating Committee has not adopted a formal policy with regard to consideration of any director candidate nominated by shareholders. The Nominating Committee believes that such a policy is not necessary or appropriate because of the shareholders’ ability to directly nominate director candidates for the Board.
     In identifying qualified individuals to become members of the Board of Directors, the Nominating Committee selects candidates whose attributes it believes would be most beneficial to the Company. The Nominating Committee evaluates each individual’s experience, integrity, competence, diversity, skills and dedication in the context of the needs of the Board of Directors. The Committee generally identifies director nominees through the personal, business and organizational contacts of existing directors and management. However, the Committee may use a variety of sources to identify director nominees, including third-party search firms, counsel, advisors and shareholder recommendations.
Code of Ethics
     Our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that is applicable to all members of our Board of Directors, our executive officers and our employees. We have posted the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics policy in the Investor Relations section of our web site at www.manh.com. If, in the future, we amend, modify or waive a provision in the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, we may, rather than filing a Form 8-K, satisfy the disclosure requirement under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K by posting such information on our web site as necessary.

(1)   During the fourth quarter of 2005, the Board of Directors approved an Option Acceleration Agreement that accelerated the vesting of unvested stock options held by our employees with an exercise price of $22.09 or higher. The accelerated vesting affected options for approximately 765 option holders, representing 1.9 million shares of our common stock. In order to prevent unintended personal benefits to individuals resulting from the accelerated vesting of options, we imposed sales restrictions on shares acquired upon exercise of these options that parallel the vesting requirements of the original options. These sales restrictions on the shares acquired continue following termination of employment until the original vesting dates are reached.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
General
     The Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) has furnished the following report on Executive Compensation in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. This report outlines the duties of the Committee with respect to executive compensation, the various components of the Company’s compensation program for executive officers and other key employees, and the basis on which the 2006 compensation was determined for the executive officers of the Company, with particular detail given to the 2006 compensation for the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.
Compensation of Executive Officers Generally
     The Committee is responsible for establishing compensation levels for the executive officers of the Company, including the annual bonus plan for executive officers and for administering the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan. The Committee is currently comprised of three non-employee directors: Messrs. Noonan (Chairman), Huntz and Cassidy. The Committee’s overall objective is to establish a compensation policy that will (i) attract, retain and reward executives who contribute to achieving the Company’s business objectives; (ii) motivate executives to obtain these objectives; and (iii) align the interests of executives with those of the Company’s long-term investors. The Company compensates executive officers with a combination of salary and incentives designed to focus their efforts on maximizing both the near-term and long-term financial performance of the Company. In addition, the Company’s compensation program rewards individual performance that furthers Company goals. The executive compensation program includes the following: (i) base salary; (ii) incentive bonuses; (iii) long-term equity incentive awards in the form of stock option grants; and (iv) other benefits. Each executive officer’s compensation package is designed to provide an appropriately weighted mix of these elements, which cumulatively provide a level of compensation roughly equivalent to that paid by companies of similar size and complexity.
     Base Salary. Base Salary levels for each of the Company’s executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer, are generally set within a range of base salaries that the Committee believes are paid to similar executive officers at companies deemed comparable based on the similarity in revenue level, industry segment and competitive employment market to the Company. In addition, the Committee generally takes into account the Company’s past financial performance and future expectations, the performance of the executives, changes in the executives’ responsibilities, and cost-of-living and other local and geographic considerations.
     Incentive Bonuses. The Committee recommends the payment of bonuses to provide an incentive to executive officers to be productive over the course of each fiscal year. These bonuses are awarded based on a combination of the Company achieving certain corporate performance objectives and individual goals for each respective executive officer.
     Equity Incentives. Stock options are used by the Company for payment of long-term compensation to provide a stock-based incentive to improve the Company’s financial performance and to assist in the recruitment, retention and motivation of professional, managerial and other personnel. Generally, stock options are granted to executive officers from time to time based primarily upon the individual’s actual and/or potential contributions to the Company and the Company’s financial performance. Stock options are designed to align the interests of the Company’s executive officers with those of its shareholders by encouraging executive officers to enhance the value of the Company, the price of the Common Stock, and hence, the shareholder’s return. In addition, the vesting of stock options over a period of time is designed to create an incentive for the individual to remain with the Company. The Company has granted options to the executives on an ongoing basis to provide continuing incentives to the executives to meet future performance goals and to remain with the Company. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, options to purchase an aggregate 210,000 shares of Common Stock were granted to the Company’s Named Executive Officers.
     Other Benefits. Benefits offered to the Company’s executive officers are provided to serve as a safety net of protection against the financial catastrophes that can result from illness, disability or death. Benefits offered to

Table of Contents

the Company’s executive officers are substantially the same as those offered to all of the Company’s regular employees. In 1995, the Company established a tax-qualified deferred compensation 401(k) Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) covering all of the Company’s eligible full-time employees. Under the 401(k) Plan, participants may elect to contribute, through salary reductions, up to 60% of their annual compensation subject to a statutory maximum of $14,000. On January 1, 2006, the eligible compensation limitation was increased to $15,000. The Company provides additional matching contributions in the amount of 50% up to the first 6% contributed under the 401(k) Plan. The 401(k) Plan is designed to qualify under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code so that the contributions by employees or by the Company to the 401(k) Plan, and income earned on plan contributions, are not taxable to employees until withdrawn from the 401(k) Plan, and so that contributions by the Company will be deductible by the Company when made.
Compensation Process
     The Compensation Committee met periodically prior to and during 2006 to set compensation for the Company’s executive officers. The Compensation Committee drew upon compensation information with respect to the Company’s executive officers as well as publicly available compensation information for the Company’s peers and other compensation information available to members of the committee.
Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer
     The Committee annually reviews the performance and compensation of the Chief Executive Officer based on the assessment of his past performance and its expectation of his future contributions to the Company’s performance.
     For the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, Mr. Sinisgalli’s compensation included a salary of $425,000 and a bonus of $360,188 based on certain financial criteria of the Company. The Committee believes the compensation paid to Mr. Sinisgalli was reasonable.

Policy with Respect to Qualifying Compensation for Deductibility
     Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code imposes a limit on tax deductions for annual compensation (other than performance-based compensation) in excess of one million dollars paid by a corporation to its Chief Executive Officer and its other four most highly compensated executive officers. The Company has not established a policy with regard to Section 162(m) of the Code, because the Company does not currently anticipate paying cash compensation in excess of one million dollars per annum to any employee. The Board of Directors will continue to assess the impact of Section 162(m) on its compensation practices and determine what further action, if any, is appropriate.
Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
     The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide that the liability of the directors to the shareholders for monetary damages shall be limited to the fullest extent permissible under Georgia law. This limitation of liability does not affect the availability of injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.
     The Company’s Bylaws provide that the Company will indemnify each of its officers, directors, employees and agents to the extent that he or she is or was a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative because he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, against reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with such action, suit or proceeding; provided, however, that no indemnification shall be made for:
    any appropriation, in violation of his or her duties, of any business opportunity of the Company;
 
    acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
 
    any liability under Section 14-2-832 of the Georgia Business Corporation Code, which relates to unlawful payments of dividends and unlawful stock repurchases and redemptions; or
 
    any transaction from which he or she derived an improper personal benefit.
The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with certain executive officers and directors providing indemnification similar to that provided in the Bylaws.
STOCK PERFORMANCE GRAPH
     The following line-graph provides a comparison of the cumulative total shareholder return on the Common Stock for the period from December 31, 2001 through December 31, 2006, against the cumulative shareholder return during such period achieved by The Nasdaq Stock Market (U.S. Companies) (“NASDAQ Composite”), the Index for Nasdaq Listed Supply Chain Solution Provider Stocks pre-2006 (the “Old Peer Group”) and the Index for Nasdaq Listed Supply Chain Solution Provider Stocks for 2006 (the “New Peer Group”). The graph assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 2001 in the Common Stock and in each of the comparison indices and assumes reinvestment of dividends. In the past, the Company’s Old Peer Group consisted of the following companies: Lawson Software Inc., Manugistics Group, Inc., JDA Software Group Inc., Oracle Corporation, SAP AG, SSA Global Technologies Inc. and i2 Technologies Inc. Since two of the seven companies in the Old Peer Group have been acquired by or merged with other companies, the Company has adopted a New Peer Group to be used for future comparisons. The New Peer Group consists of the following companies: JDA Software Group Inc., Oracle Corporation, SAP AG, i2 Technologies Inc., Descartes Systems Group, Inc., Ariba Inc. and Aspen Technology, Inc. The performance of the Old Peer Group and the New Peer Group over the past five years is almost identical.

PROPOSAL 2
APPROVAL OF MANHATTAN ASSOCIATES, INC. 2007 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
     On April 4, 2007, our Board of Directors adopted the Manhattan Associates, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to promote our long-term success and increase shareholder value by:
    attracting and retaining key employees and directors of outstanding ability;
 
    encouraging key employees and directors to focus on long-range objectives; and
 
    further aligning the interests of key employees and directors with the economic interests of the shareholders.
     The Board of Directors adopted the Plan subject to approval by the shareholders at this Annual Meeting. A summary of the Plan is set forth below. This summary is, however, qualified in its entirety by and subject to the more complete information set forth in the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex A.
Maximum Aggregate Shares Issuable under the Plan
     The total number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan shall not exceed 2,300,000 shares, subject to certain adjustments in the event of a change in the capitalization of the Company. Not more than 600,000 shares may be issued under the Plan as restricted stock awards or restricted stock units. To the extent any shares covered by a stock incentive remains unissued after the award is canceled, exchanged or expires unexercised, then such shares of Common Stock may again be available for use under the Plan. Upon approval of the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, no further awards will be made under our 1998 Stock Incentive Plan.
     In order to facilitate the approval of this proposal and alleviate any shareholder concerns regarding the number of awards we intend to grant in a given year, subject to approval of the Plan, our Board of Directors commits to our shareholders that for fiscal years 2007, 2008 and 2009, we will not grant a number of shares subject to options or other equity awards to employees under the Plan such that the average number of shares granted during such three fiscal years is greater than 5.82% of the average number of shares of our common stock that were outstanding at the end of each of the three fiscal years. For purposes of calculating the number of shares granted in a year, restricted stock will count as the equivalent of two option shares. This limitation will apply to awards that can result in the delivery of shares under the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, but excludes awards under plans assumed in future acquisitions occurring prior to such acquisition, qualified employee stock purchase plans, and certain other tax-qualified plans.
Term of the Plan
     The Plan became effective when adopted by the Board of Directors on April 4, 2007, provided that our shareholders must approve the Plan within 12 months after such effective date. Unless the Plan is earlier terminated in accordance with its provisions, no stock incentives will be granted under the Plan after the earlier of April 4, 2017, or the date on which all of the shares reserved for the Plan have been issued or are no longer available for use under the Plan. However, the Plan will continue in effect until all outstanding stock incentives have been exercised in full or are no longer exercisable.
Administration of the Plan
     The Plan will be administered by the Board of Directors or a committee appointed and delegated by the Board. The Board of Directors will have full power to interpret the Plan and any agreement or instrument entered into thereunder, determine the terms and conditions of any outstanding stock incentives as allowed under the Plan and make all other determinations or take such other actions as may be necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

Table of Contents

Types of Stock Incentives
     The Board of Directors may grant the following stock incentives under the Plan (each individually, a “Stock Incentive”):
    stock options to purchase shares of Common Stock, including options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (“incentive stock options”) and options not intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (“non-qualified stock options”);
 
    restricted stock awards;
 
    restricted stock units; and
 
    stock appreciation rights.
     Each of the above Stock Incentives will be evidenced by a stock incentive agreement executed by the Company and the eligible recipient, in such form and with such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may, pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, determine in its discretion from time to time.
Eligible Recipients
     Awards of Stock Incentives under the Plan may be made to employees and non-employee directors of, and consultants or advisors that provide services to, the Company or its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Participants”). Only employees are eligible to receive a grant of incentive stock options.
Provisions Applicable to Stock Options
     Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of each stock option will not be less than the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the grant date. With respect to each grant of an incentive stock option to a recipient who is a shareholder holding more than 10% of the Company’s total voting stock, the exercise price will not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the shares. The Board of Directors may not adjust the exercise price of a stock option to a lower price without first receiving the approval of our shareholders.
     Option Term. Stock options may not be exercised after the seventh anniversary of the grant date, except that any incentive stock option granted to a ten-percent shareholder may not be exercised after the fifth anniversary of the grant date.
     Transferability Restrictions. A stock option issued under the Plan may not be transferable or assignable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and may be exercisable only by the Participant during the Participant’s lifetime, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Plan. However, a non-qualified stock option may be transferred by the Participant as a bona fide gift to his or her spouse, lineal descendant or ascendant, siblings and children by adoption.
     Payment. Payment for shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of a stock option may be made in cash only. In addition, the stock option may be exercised through a brokerage transaction as permitted under the provisions of Regulation T applicable to cashless exercises promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, unless prohibited by Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, payment must be made at the time that the stock option or any part thereof is exercised, and no shares shall be issued or delivered upon exercise of an option until full payment has been made by the Participant. Other methods of payment may also be used if approved by the Board of Directors in its sole and absolute discretion and provided for under the related stock incentive agreement.

Provisions Applicable to Stock Appreciation Rights
     Terms, Conditions and Restrictions. A stock appreciation right is a contractual right whereby the Participant, without payment to the Company (except for any applicable withholding or other taxes), receives cash, shares, a combination thereof, or such other consideration as the Board of Directors may determine, in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value per share on the exercise date over the exercise price per share for that stock appreciation right. The exercise price per share for the stock appreciation right will not be less than the fair market value of a share of our common stock at the grant date. The Board of Directors may not adjust the exercise price of a stock appreciation right to a lower price without first receiving the approval of our shareholders.
     Transferability Restrictions. No stock appreciation right granted under the Plan may be transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and may be exercisable only by the Participant. However, a stock appreciation right may also be transferred by the Participant as a bona fide gift to his or her spouse, lineal descendant or ascendant, siblings and children by adoption.
Provisions Applicable to Restricted Stock Awards
     Terms, Conditions and Restrictions. The Board of Directors may determine the terms, conditions, restrictions and other provisions of each restricted stock award. Restricted stock awards issued under the Plan may have restrictions that lapse based upon the service of a Participant, or based upon the attainment of performance goals established pursuant to the business criteria listed in the Plan, or based upon any other criteria that the Board of Directors may determine appropriate. The Board of Directors may require a cash payment from the Participant in exchange for the grant of a restricted stock award or may grant a restricted stock award without the requirement of a cash payment.
     Transferability Restrictions. A restricted stock award may not be transferred by the Participant, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
     Voting, Dividends and Other Rights. Unless the related stock incentive agreement provides otherwise, recipients of restricted stock awards are entitled to vote and to receive dividends during the periods of restriction.
Provisions Applicable to Restricted Stock Units
     Terms, Conditions and Restrictions. A restricted stock unit entitles the Participant to receive one share of Common Stock at such future time and upon such terms as specified by the Board of Directors in the applicable stock incentive agreement. Restricted stock units issued under the Plan may have restrictions that lapse based upon the service of a Participant, or based upon other criteria that the Board of Directors may determine appropriate. The Board of Directors may require a cash payment from the recipient in exchange for the grant of a restricted stock unit or may grant a restricted stock unit without the requirement of a cash payment.
     Transferability Restrictions. A restricted stock unit may not be transferred by the recipient, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
     Voting, Dividends and Other Rights. Unless the related stock incentive agreement provides otherwise, recipients of restricted stock units are not entitled to vote and to receive dividends until they become owners of the shares pursuant to their restricted stock units.
Change of Control
     Upon the occurrence of a “change in control” (as defined in the Plan), with respect to any Stock Incentive granted under the Plan that is not so assumed or substituted (a “Non-Assumed Stock Incentive”), the Board of Directors may, at its discretion, (i) accelerate the vesting and/or exercisability of such Non-Assumed Stock Incentive; (ii) cancel any such Non-Assumed Stock Incentive that has not vested nor become exercisable as of the effective date of the change in control; (iii) cancel such Non-Assumed Stock Incentive in exchange for its in-the-money value, if any, as determined in the Plan; (iv) cancel such Non-Assumed Stock Incentive after providing the

22


Table of Contents

opportunity to exercise such Stock Incentive prior to the change of control; or (v) cancel any Non-Assumed Stock Incentive that does not have any in-the-money value.
Amendment and Termination
     The Board of Directors may suspend, terminate or amend the Plan from time to time; except that certain amendments as specified in the Plan may not be made without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, including an amendment to increase the number of shares reserved and issuable under the Plan, to extend the term of the Plan, or to decrease the minimum exercise price of any Stock Incentive. The Board of Directors may also modify, amend or cancel any Stock Incentive granted under the Plan; provided, however, that without the consent of the Participant affected, no such modification, amendment or cancellation may diminish the rights of such Participant under the Stock Incentive previously granted under the Plan.
Federal Income Tax Consequences
     The following is a brief outline of the federal income tax consequences to Participants of the receipt or exercise of Options. It does not discuss all the possible tax consequences of exercising options, which depend on each employee’s own individual tax and financial situation.
     Incentive Stock Options. A Participant who receives an incentive stock option generally recognizes no income for federal income tax purposes at the time of the grant or exercise of the option. However, the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the underlying Shares on the date of exercise (referred to as the “spread”) generally will constitute an item of alternative minimum tax adjustment for purposes of the alternative minimum tax for the year in which the option is exercised, and thus may increase the federal income tax liability of the option holder as a result of the exercise of an incentive stock option under the alternative minimum tax rules of the Internal Revenue Code. The Participant generally will be entitled to long-term capital gain treatment upon the sale of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options, if the Shares have been held for more than two years from the date of grant of the option and for more than one year after exercise.
     If the Participant disposes of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock option before the expiration of either of these holding periods (a “disqualifying disposition”), generally the gain realized on disposition will be ordinary compensation income to the extent of the spread (or, if less, the amount realized on such disposition). However, if the option holder is subject to suit under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the short swing profits rule), the option holder will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between the exercise price and the lesser of (i) the fair market value of the Shares as of a later date (such later date being the earlier of (1) the expiration of 6 months from the date of exercise, or (2) the first day on which the disposition of such property would not subject such option holder to suit under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, unless the option holder makes a timely Internal Revenue Code § 83(b) election, in which event the fair market of the Shares will be determined on the date of exercise) and (ii) the price at which the Shares are sold. This amount will be taxed at ordinary income rates. If the sale price of the Shares is greater than the fair market value on the date of exercise, the difference will be recognized as gain by the option holder and taxed at the applicable capital gains rate. If the sale price of the Shares is less than the option exercise price, the option holder will recognize a capital loss equal to the excess of the option exercise price over the sale price. Such capital gain or loss will be treated as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss depending upon whether the holding period applicable to the long-term capital assets is satisfied.
     For these purposes, the use of Shares acquired upon exercise of an incentive stock option to pay the option exercise price of another option (whether or not it is an incentive stock option) will be considered a disposition of the Shares. If this disposition occurs before the expiration of the requisite holding periods, the option holder will have the same tax consequences as are described above in the preceding paragraph. If the option holder transfers any such Shares after holding them for the requisite holding periods or transfers Shares acquired pursuant to exercise of a nonqualified stock option or on the open market, he generally will not recognize any income upon the exercise. Whether or not the transferred Shares were acquired pursuant to an incentive stock option and regardless of how long the option holder has held such Shares, the basis of the new Shares received pursuant to the exercise will be computed in two steps. In the first step, a number of new Shares equal to the number of older Shares tendered (in payment of the option’s exercise) is considered exchanged under Internal Revenue Code §1036 and the rulings

23


Table of Contents

thereunder. Accordingly these new Shares receive the same holding period and the same basis the option holder had in the old tendered Shares, if any, plus the amount included in income from the deemed sale of the old Shares and the amount of cash or other non-stock consideration paid for the new Shares, if any. In the second step, the number of new shares received by the option holder in excess of the old tendered Shares receives a basis of zero, and the option holder’s holding period with respect to such Shares commences upon exercise.
     An option holder may have tax consequences upon exercise of an incentive stock option if the aggregate fair market value of Shares of the Common Stock subject to incentive stock options which first become exercisable by an option holder in any one calendar year exceeds $100,000. If this occurs, the excess Shares will be treated as though they are subject to a nonqualified stock option instead of an incentive stock option. Upon exercise of an option with respect to these Shares, the option holder will have the tax consequences described below with respect to the exercise of nonqualified stock options.
     There will be no tax consequences to the Company upon issuance or, generally, upon exercise of an incentive stock option. However, to the extent that an option holder recognizes ordinary income upon exercise, as described above, the Company generally will have a deduction in the same amount, provided the Company satisfies applicable federal income tax reporting requirements or the option holder actually reports such income on his or her federal income tax return.
     Nonqualified Stock Options. A Participant generally does not recognize income for federal income tax purposes upon the date of grant of a nonqualified stock option, unless the nonqualified stock option itself has a readily ascertainable fair market value (usually meaning that the option itself is traded). However, the holder of a nonqualified stock option must recognize ordinary income upon exercise in the amount of the spread. If the option holder is subject to suit under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the short swing profits rule), the option holder recognizes ordinary income in the amount by which the fair market value of the Shares determined as of a later date exceeds the exercise price for such Shares, with such later date being the earlier of (i) the expiration of 6 months from the date of exercise, or (ii) the first day on which the disposition of such property would not subject such option holder to suit under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, unless the option holder makes a timely Internal Revenue Code §83(b) election, in which event the fair market value of the Shares will be determined on the date of exercise. The Company generally will have a deduction in the same amount as the ordinary income recognized by the option holder in the Company’s tax year during which the option holder recognizes ordinary income, provided the Company satisfies applicable federal income tax reporting requirements or the option holder actually reports such income on his or her federal income tax return.
     Upon the sale of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of Nonqualified Stock Options, the Participant will recognize capital gain (or loss) to the extent that the amount realized from the sale exceeds (or in the case of a loss, is less than) the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise (or, if the option holder was subject to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and did not make a timely Internal Revenue Code §83(b) election, the fair market value on the delayed determination date, if applicable). This gain will be long-term capital gain (or loss, as the case may be) if the Shares have been held for more than one year after exercise.
     Special rules apply to a Participant who exercises a nonqualified stock option by paying the exercise price, in whole or in part, by the transfer of Shares to the Company. If an option holder exercises a nonqualified stock option by paying the option exercise price with previously acquired Shares, the option holder will generally recognize income (relative to the new shares he is receiving) in two steps. In the first step, a number of new Shares equivalent to the number of older Shares tendered (in payment of the nonqualified stock option exercised) is considered to have been exchanged in accordance with Internal Revenue Code §1036 and the rulings thereunder. Accordingly, no gain or loss is recognized upon the exchange, and the new Shares received in the exchange obtain the same holding period and the same basis the option holder had in the old tendered Shares. In the second step, with respect to the number of new Shares acquired in excess of the number of old Shares tendered, the option holder will recognize income on those new Shares equal to their fair market value less any non-stock consideration tendered. The excess new Shares received will have a basis equal to the amount of income recognized by the option holder by exercise, increased by any non-stock consideration tendered. Their holding period for the excess new Shares will commence upon the exercise of the Option.

     Stock Appreciation Rights. At the time a stock appreciation right is granted, a stock appreciation right holder will recognize no taxable income, and there are no tax consequences to the Company. The stock appreciation right holder will recognize taxable income at the time the stock appreciation right is exercised in an amount equal to the amount of cash and the fair market value of the shares of the Common Stock received upon such exercise. However, if the stock appreciation right holder is subject to suit under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (the short swing profits rule), the stock appreciation right holder will recognize taxable income at the time the stock appreciation right is exercised in an amount equal to the amount of cash received upon exercise and the fair market value (determined as of the earlier of (i) the expiration of 6 months from the date of exercise, or (ii) the first day on which the disposition of such property would not subject such stock appreciation right holder to suit under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act, unless the stock appreciation right holder makes a timely Internal Revenue Code §83(b) election) of the Common Stock received upon such exercise. The income recognized on exercise of a stock appreciation right will be taxable at ordinary income tax rates. The Company generally will be entitled to a deduction with respect to the exercise of a stock appreciation right in an amount equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the stock appreciation right holder upon such exercise, provided the Company satisfies applicable federal income tax reporting requirements or the stock appreciation right holder actually reports such income on his or her federal income tax returns. Any gain or loss upon the disposition of the Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of a stock appreciation right will qualify as short-term or long-term capital gain or loss depending on how long the stock appreciation right holder holds the Common Stock before such disposition.
     Restricted Stock Awards. A holder of a restricted stock award will generally recognize income upon its receipt, but only to the extent that it is not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. If the restricted stock award is subject to restrictions that lapse in increments over a period of time, so that the holder becomes vested in a portion of the Shares as the restrictions lapse, the holder will recognize income in any tax year only with respect to the Shares that become non-forfeitable during that year. If a holder of a restricted stock award cannot sell the Shares without being subject to suit under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (the short swing profits rule), the Shares will be treated as subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. The income recognized will be equal to the fair market value of those Shares, determined as of the time that the restrictions on those Shares lapse, less any purchase price paid. That income generally will be taxable at ordinary income tax rates. The Company generally will be entitled to a deduction in an amount equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the holder of the restricted stock award, provided the Company satisfies applicable federal income tax reporting requirements or the holder of the restricted stock award actually reports such income on his or her federal income tax return.
     Alternatively, a holder of a restricted stock award may make a timely Internal Revenue Code §83(b) election to recognize ordinary income for the taxable year in which he receives a restricted stock award in an amount equal to the fair market value of all Shares awarded to him (even if the Shares are subject to forfeiture). That income will be taxable at ordinary income tax rates. At the time of disposition of the Shares, a holder who has made such an election will recognize gain in an amount equal to the difference between the purchase price, if any, and the amount received on the disposition of the Shares. Such gain will be taxable at the applicable capital gains rate. A timely Internal Revenue Code §83(b) election must be made within 30 days after the transfer of the restricted stock award to the holder. The Company will generally be entitled to a deduction in an amount equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the holder at the time of his election, provided the Company satisfies applicable federal income tax reporting requirements or the employee actually reports such income on his or her federal income tax returns.
     Cash dividends paid to a holder of a restricted stock award prior to the date the underlying Shares are no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture or are forfeited are treated as ordinary income of the holder of the Shares in the year received. Depending upon the period Shares are held after receipt by a holder of a restricted stock award, the sale or other taxable disposition of such Shares will result in short-term or long-term capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on such disposition and the fair market value of such Shares generally (i) when the Shares are no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, or (ii) upon receipt if a timely Internal Revenue Code §83(b) election was made with respect to the Shares.
     Limitation on Company Deductions. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions, generally no federal income tax deduction is allowed for compensation paid to a “covered employee” in any taxable year of the Company, to the extent that such compensation exceeds $1,000,000 and the Company is a publicly held corporation. For this purpose, “covered employees” are generally the chief executive officer of the Company and the four highest

25


Table of Contents

compensated officers of the Company, and the term “compensation” generally includes amounts includable in gross income as a result of the exercise of stock options or stock appreciation rights, or the receipt of restricted stock. This deduction limitation does not apply to compensation that is commission based compensation, performance based compensation, compensation which would not be includable in an employee’s gross income, and compensation payable under a written binding contract in existence on February 17, 1993, and not materially modified thereafter.
     Regulations indicate that compensation attributable to a stock option or a stock appreciation right will generally satisfy the limitation exception for performance based compensation if the grant or award is made by a “compensation committee” (a committee composed of “outside” directors), the plan under which the option or right is granted states the maximum number of shares with respect to which the options or rights may be granted during a specified period to any employee, and, under the terms of the option or right, the amount of compensation the employee could receive is based solely on an increase in the value of the stock after the date of the grant or award. Options, stock appreciation rights and other awards granted under the Plan may possibly satisfy these requirements, depending upon the specific terms, provisions, restrictions and limitations of such options or rights.
     Restricted Stock Units. Generally, if a restricted stock unit is designed so as to be paid on or shortly after the restricted stock unit becomes vested and no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, then the cash or the fair market value of the Shares paid upon the vesting of the restricted stock unit will be ordinary income to the restricted stock unit recipient and the Company will be entitled to an income tax deduction for such amount as compensation paid. However, if a restricted stock unit is not so designed, the restricted stock unit may be deemed a nonqualified deferred compensation plan under Internal Revenue Code §409A, in which case, unless the restricted stock unit is designed to meet the requirements of Internal Revenue Code §409A, the restricted stock unit recipient would be subject to immediate taxation upon receipt of the restricted stock unit as ordinary income, along with an additional twenty-percent (20%) tax, and further tax could be imposed each following year. If the restricted stock unit may be deemed a nonqualified deferred compensation plan under Internal Revenue Code §409A and is designed to meet the requirements of Internal Revenue Code §409A, then the case or the fair market value of the Shares paid under the restricted stock unit would be ordinary income to the restricted stock unit recipient at the time of payment, and the Company will be entitled to an income tax deduction for such amount as compensation paid during the year of actual payment. The requirements of Internal Revenue Code §409A that must be met by a restricted stock unit to avoid immediate taxation generally are that the timing and form of payment must be specified at the time of grant of the restricted stock unit, that the restricted stock unit may only provide for payment at certain times, and that no payments under the restricted stock unit may be accelerated. Other requirements may also apply as well.
     Golden Parachute Payments. The terms of Stock Incentive Agreement evidencing awards under the Plan may provide for accelerated vesting of a Stock Incentive in connection with a change in ownership or control of the Company. In such event, certain amounts with respect to such Stock Incentives may be characterized as “parachute payments” under the golden parachute provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, no federal income tax deduction is allowed to a corporation for “excess parachute payments” made to “disqualified individuals,” and receipt of such payments subject the recipient to a 20% excise tax under Internal Revenue Code §4999. For this purpose, “disqualified individuals” are generally officers, shareholders or highly compensated individuals performing services for a corporation, and the term “excess parachute payments” includes payments in the nature of compensation which are contingent on a change in ownership or effective control of a corporation, to the extent that such payments (in present value) exceed three times the payee’s average annual taxable compensation from the corporation for the previous five years. Certain payments with respect to non-publicly traded corporations, payments for reasonable compensation for services rendered after a Change of Control and payments from qualified plans are generally not included in determining “excess parachute payments.” If payments or accelerations may occur with respect to Stock Incentives granted under the Plan, certain amounts in connection with such awards may possibly constitute “parachute payments” and be subject to these “golden parachute” tax provisions.
     The Plan is not a qualified deferred compensation plan under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and is not intended to be an employee benefit plan within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

Table of Contents

Shares, whether under this Plan or otherwise, may be granted one or more additional Options. If the Board grants an ISO and a NQSO to an Eligible Recipient on the same date, the right of the Eligible Recipient to exercise one such Option shall not be conditioned on his or her failure to exercise the other such Option.
     (c) Exercise Price. Subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 9 and the other provisions of this Section, the Exercise Price shall be as set forth in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement. With respect to each grant of an Option, the Exercise Price shall not be less than (1) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted, (2) the minimum price required by applicable state law, (3) the minimum price required by the Company’s governing instrument, or (4) $0.01, whichever price is greater. With respect to each grant of an ISO to a Participant who is a Ten Percent Shareholder, the Exercise Price shall not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the ISO is granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Exercise Price of an Option granted in substitution of an existing option pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.424-1(a) and/or Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D) (or the corresponding provisions of future guidance) may be established under the requirements of those provisions without regard to the foregoing (see subsection (h) below)..
     (d) Option Term. Each Option granted under this Plan shall be exercisable in whole or in part at such time or times as set forth in the related Stock Incentive Agreement, but no Stock Incentive Agreement shall:
  (1)   make an Option exercisable before the date such Option is granted; or
 
  (2)   make an Option exercisable after the earlier of:
     (i) the date such Option is exercised in full, or
     (ii) the date that is the seventh (7th) anniversary of the date such Option is granted, if such Option is a NQSO or an ISO granted to a non-Ten Percent Shareholder, or the date that is the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date such Option is granted, if such Option is an ISO granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder.
A Stock Incentive Agreement may provide for the exercise of an Option after the employment of an Employee has terminated for any reason whatsoever, including death or disability. The Employee’s rights, if any, upon termination of employment will be set forth in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement.
     (e) Payment. Options shall be exercised by the delivery of a written notice of exercise to the Company, setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is to be exercised accompanied by full payment for the Shares. Payment for shares of Stock purchased pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be made in cash or, unless the Stock Incentive Agreement provides otherwise, by delivery to the Company of a number of Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount to be tendered (including a “cashless” or “net share” exercise), or a combination thereof. In addition, unless the Stock Incentive Agreement provides otherwise, the Option may be exercised through a brokerage transaction following registration of the Company’s equity securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act as permitted under the provisions of Regulation T applicable to cashless exercises promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board, unless prohibited by Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Option recipient who is an Insider, a tender of shares or a cashless exercise must (1) have met the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (2) be a subsequent transaction the terms of which were provided for in a transaction initially meeting the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Unless the Stock Incentive Agreement provides otherwise, the foregoing exercise payment methods shall be subsequent transactions approved by the original grant of an Option. Except as provided in subparagraph (f) below, payment shall be made at the time that the Option or any part thereof is exercised, and no Shares shall be issued or delivered upon exercise of an Option until full payment has been made by the Participant. The holder of an Option, as such, shall have none of the rights of a shareholder. Other methods of payment may also be used if approved by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion and provided for under the Stock Incentive Agreement.
     (f) Conditions to Exercise of an Option. Each Option granted under the Plan shall vest and shall be exercisable at such time or times, or upon the occurrence of such event or events, and in such amounts, as the Board shall specify in the Stock Incentive Agreement; provided, however, that subsequent

A-9


Table of Contents

to the grant of an Option, the Board, at any time before complete termination of such Option, may accelerate the time or times at which such Option may vest or be exercised in whole or in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option intended to meet the FLSA Exclusion shall not be exercisable for at least six (6) months following the date it is granted, except by reason of death, disability, retirement, a change in corporate ownership or other circumstances permitted under regulations promulgated under the FLSA Exclusion. Furthermore, if the recipient of an Option receives a hardship distribution from a Code §401(k) plan of the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary, the Option may not be exercised during the six (6) month period following the hardship distribution, unless the Company determines that such exercise would not jeopardize the tax-qualification of the Code §401(k) plan. The Board may impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, vesting or performance-based restrictions, voting restrictions, investment intent restrictions, restrictions on transfer, restrictions or limitations or other provisions that would be applied to shareholders under any applicable agreement among the shareholders, and restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed and/or traded, and/or under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.
     (g) Transferability of Options. An Option shall not be transferable or assignable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant; provided, however, that in the event the Participant is incapacitated and unable to exercise his or her Option, if such Option is a NQSO, such Option may be exercised by such Participant’s legal guardian, legal representative, or other representative whom the Board deems appropriate based on applicable facts and circumstances. The determination of incapacity of a Participant and the determination of the appropriate representative of the Participant who shall be able to exercise the Option if the Participant is incapacitated shall be determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise provided in the Stock Incentive Agreement, a NQSO may also be transferred by a Participant as a bona fide gift (i) to his spouse, lineal descendant or lineal ascendant, siblings and children by adoption, (ii) to a trust for the benefit of one or more individuals described in clause (i) and no other persons, or (iii) to a partnership of which the only partners are one or more individuals described in clause (i), in which case the transferee shall be subject to all provisions of the Plan, the Stock Incentive Agreement and other agreements with the Participant in connection with the exercise of the Option and purchase of Shares. In the event of such a gift, the Participant shall promptly notify the Board of such transfer and deliver to the Board such written documentation as the Board may in its discretion request, including, without limitation, the written acknowledgment of the donee that the donee is subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Stock Incentive Agreement and other agreements with the Participant.
     (h) Special Provisions for Certain Substitute Options. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, any Option in substitution for a stock option previously issued by another entity, which substitution occurs in connection with a transaction to which Code §424(a) and/or Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D) is applicable, may provide for an exercise price computed in accordance with Code §424(a) and/or Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D) and the regulations thereunder and may contain such other terms and conditions as the Board may prescribe to cause such substitute Option to contain as nearly as possible the same terms and conditions (including the applicable vesting and termination provisions) as those contained in the previously issued stock option being replaced thereby.
     (i) ISO Tax Treatment Requirements. With respect to any Option that purports to be an ISO, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant of such Option) of stock with respect to which such Option is exercisable for the first time by any individual during any calendar year exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000.00), such Option shall not be treated as an ISO in accordance with Code §422(d). The rule of the preceding sentence is applied in the order in which Options are granted. Also, with respect to any Option that purports to be an ISO, such Option shall not be treated as an ISO if the Participant disposes of shares acquired thereunder within two (2) years from the date of the granting of the Option or within one (1) year of the exercise of the Option, or if the Participant has not met the requirements of Code §422(a)(2).
     (j) Potential Repricing of Stock Options. With respect to any one or more Options granted pursuant to, and under, this Plan, the Board may determine that the repricing of all or any portion of such

A-10


Table of Contents

existing outstanding Options is appropriate, but only with, and upon securing, the approval of the Shareholders of the Company. For this purpose, “repricing” of Options shall include, but not be limited to, any of the following actions (or any similar action): (1) lowering the Exercise Price of an existing Option; (2) any action which would be treated as a “repricing” under generally accepted accounting principles; or (3) canceling of an existing Option at a time when its Exercise Price exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying stock subject to such Option, in exchange for another Option, a Restricted Stock Award, or other equity in the Company.
     7.3 Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights.
     (a) Grants of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted in connection with all or any portion of a previously or contemporaneously granted Option or not in connection with an Option. A Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle the Participant to receive upon exercise or payment the excess of the Fair Market Value of a specified number of Shares at the time of exercise, over a SAR Exercise Price that shall be not less than the Exercise Price for that number of Shares in the case of a Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with a previously or contemporaneously granted Option, or in the case of any other Stock Appreciation Right, not less than the Fair Market Value of that number of Shares at the time the Stock Appreciation Right was granted. The exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right shall result in a pro rata surrender of the related Option to the extent the Stock Appreciation Right has been exercised.
     (b) SAR Term. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted under this Plan shall be exercisable in whole or in part at such time or times as set forth in the related Stock Incentive Agreement, but no Stock Incentive Agreement shall:
     (1) make a Stock Appreciation Right exercisable before the date such Stock Appreciation Right is granted; or
     (2) make a Stock Appreciation Right exercisable after the earlier of:
     (i) the date such Stock Appreciation Right is exercised in full, or
     (ii) the date that is the seventh (7th) anniversary of the date such Stock Appreciation Right is granted.
A Stock Incentive Agreement may provide for the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right after the employment of an Employee has terminated for any reason whatsoever, including death or disability. The Employee’s rights, if any, upon termination of employment will be set forth in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement.
     (c) Payment. Upon exercise or payment of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Company shall pay to the Participant the appreciation in cash or Shares (at the aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of payment or exercise) as provided in the Stock Incentive Agreement or, in the absence of such provision, as the Board may determine. To the extent that a Stock Appreciation Right is paid in cash, it shall nonetheless be deemed paid in Shares for purposes of Section 3 hereof.
     (d) Conditions to Exercise. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time or times, or upon the occurrence of such event or events, and in such amounts, as the Board shall specify in the Stock Incentive Agreement; provided, however, that subsequent to the grant of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Board, at any time before complete termination of such Stock Appreciation Right, may accelerate the time or times at which such Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised in whole or in part. Furthermore, if the recipient of a Stock Appreciation Right receives a hardship distribution from a Code §401(k) plan of the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary, the Stock Appreciation Right may not be exercised during the six (6) month period following the hardship distribution, unless the Company determines that such exercise would not jeopardize the tax-qualification of the Code §401(k) plan.
     (e) Restrictions on Shares Awarded. Shares awarded pursuant to Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to such restrictions as determined by the Board for periods determined by the Board. The Board may impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to a Stock Appreciation Right as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, vesting or performance-based restrictions, voting

A-11


Table of Contents

restrictions, investment intent restrictions, restrictions on transfer, restrictions or limitations or other provisions that would be applied to Share holders under any applicable agreement among the Share holders, and restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed and/or traded, and/or under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.
     (f) Transferability of Stock Appreciation Rights. No Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Further, except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Stock Incentive Agreement, all Stock Appreciation Rights granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant, except that in the event the Participant is incapacitated and unable to exercise his or her Stock Appreciation Right, such Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised by such Participant’s legal guardian, legal representative, or other representative whom the Board deems appropriate based on applicable facts and circumstances. The determination of incapacity of a Participant and the determination of the appropriate representative of the Participant shall be determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise provided in the Stock Incentive Agreement, (A) a Stock Appreciation Right which is granted in connection with the grant of a NQSO may be transferred, but only with the NQSO, and (B) a Stock Appreciation Right which is not granted in connection with the grant of a NQSO, may be transferred by the Participant as a bona fide gift (i) to his spouse, lineal descendant or lineal ascendant, siblings and children by adoption, (ii) to a trust for the benefit of one or more individuals described in clause (i), or (iii) to a partnership of which the only partners are one or more individuals described in clause (i), in which case the transferee shall be subject to all provisions of the Plan, the Stock Incentive Agreement and other agreements with the Participant in connection with the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right. In the event of such a gift, the Participant shall promptly notify the Board of such transfer and deliver to the Board such written documentation as the Board may in its discretion request, including, without limitation, the written acknowledgment of the donee that the donee is subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Stock Incentive Agreement and other agreements with the Participant in connection with the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right.
     (g) Special Provisions for Tandem SAR’s. A Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with an Option may only be exercised to the extent that the related Option has not been exercised. A Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with an ISO (1) will expire no later than the expiration of the underlying ISO, (2) may be for no more than the difference between the exercise price of the underlying ISO and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the underlying ISO at the time the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, (3) may be transferable only when, and under the same conditions as, the underlying ISO is transferable, and (4) may be exercised only (i) when the underlying ISO could be exercised and (ii) when the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the ISO exceeds the exercise price of the ISO.
     (h) Potential Repricing of SARs. With respect to any one or more Stock Appreciation Rights granted pursuant to, and under, this Plan, the Board may determine that the repricing of all or any portion of such existing outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights is appropriate, but only with, and upon securing, the approval of the Shareholders of the Company. For this purpose, “repricing” of Stock Appreciation Rights shall include, but not be limited to, any of the following actions (or any similar action): (1) lowering the Exercise Price of an existing Stock Appreciation Right; (2) any action which would be treated as a “repricing” under generally accepted accounting principles; or (3) canceling of an existing Stock Appreciation Right at a time when its Exercise Price exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying stock subject to such Stock Appreciation Right, in exchange for another Stock Appreciation Right, a Restricted Stock Award, or other equity in the Company.
     7.4 Terms & Conditions of Restricted Stock Awards.
     (a) Grants of Restricted Stock Awards. Shares awarded pursuant to Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to such restrictions (if any) as determined by the Board for periods determined by the Board. Restricted Stock Awards issued under the Plan may have restrictions which lapse based upon the service of a Participant, or based upon the attainment (as determined by the Board) of performance goals established pursuant to the business criteria listed in Section 13, or based upon any other criteria that the

A-12


Table of Contents

Board may determine appropriate. Any Restricted Stock Award with restrictions that lapse based on the attainment of performance goals must be granted by a Committee, must have its performance goals determined by such a Committee based upon one or more of the business criteria listed in Section 13, and must have the attainment of such performance goals certified in writing by such a Committee in order to meet the Performance-Based Exception.         . Shares awarded pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award may be forfeited to the extent that a Participant fails to satisfy the applicable conditions or restrictions during the period of restriction. The Company may retain the certificates representing Shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award in the Company’s possession until such time as all conditions and/or restrictions applicable to such Shares have been satisfied. The Board may require a cash payment from the Participant in exchange for the grant of a Restricted Stock Award or may grant a Restricted Stock Award without the requirement of a cash payment; provided, however, if the recipient of a Restricted Stock Award receives a hardship distribution from a Code §401(k) plan of the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary, the recipient may not pay any amount for such Restricted Stock Award during the six (6) month period following the hardship distribution, unless the Company determines that such payment would not jeopardize the tax-qualification of the Code §401(k) plan.
     (b) Acceleration of Award. The Board shall have the power to permit, in its discretion, an acceleration of the expiration of the applicable restrictions or the applicable period of such restrictions with respect to any part or all of the Shares awarded to a Participant.
     (c) Necessity of Stock Incentive Agreement. Each grant of a Restricted Stock Award shall be evidenced by a Stock Incentive Agreement that shall specify the terms, conditions and restrictions regarding the Shares awarded to a Participant, and shall incorporate such other terms and conditions as the Board, acting in its absolute discretion, deems consistent with the terms of this Plan. The Board shall have complete discretion to modify the terms and provisions of Restricted Stock Awards in accordance with Section 12 of this Plan.
     (d) Restrictions on Shares Awarded. Shares awarded pursuant to Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to such restrictions as determined by the Board for periods determined by the Board. The Board may impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, vesting or performance-based restrictions, voting restrictions, investment intent restrictions, restrictions on transfer, restrictions or limitations or other provisions that would be applied to shareholders under any applicable agreement among the shareholders, and restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed and/or traded, and/or under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.
     (e) Transferability of Restricted Stock Awards. A Restricted Stock Award may not be transferred by the holder Participant, except (A) upon the death of the holder Participant, a Restricted Stock Award may be transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, (B) a Restricted Stock Award may, unless the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement provides otherwise, be transferred at any time provided that the transferee is bound by all terms and provisions of the underlying Restricted Stock Award, and (C) a Restricted Stock Award may be transferred at any time following the lapse of all restrictions on transferability of the Restricted Stock Award.
     (f) Voting, Dividend & Other Rights. Unless the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement expressly provides otherwise, holders of Restricted Stock Awards shall, with respect to the Shares subject to such Stock Incentive Agreement, be entitled (1) to vote such Shares, and (2) to receive any dividends declared upon such Shares, during any period of restriction imposed by the Stock Incentive Agreement, but shall not be entitled (1) to vote such Shares, or (2) to receive any dividends declared upon such Shares, on or after the date on which Shares are forfeited pursuant to such Stock Incentive Agreement.
     7.5 Terms & Conditions of Restricted Stock Units.
     (a) Grants of Restricted Stock Units. A Restricted Stock Unit shall entitle the Participant to receive one Share at such future time and upon such terms as specified by the Board in the Stock Incentive Agreement evidencing such award. Restricted Stock Units issued under the Plan may have restrictions which lapse based upon the service of a Participant, or based upon other criteria that the Board may determine appropriate. The Board may require a cash payment from the Participant in exchange for the

A-13


Table of Contents

grant of Restricted Stock Units or may grant Restricted Stock Units without the requirement of a cash payment; provided, however, if the recipient of a Restricted Stock Unit receives a hardship distribution from a Code §401(k) plan of the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary, no payment for the Restricted Stock Unit may be made by the recipient during the six (6) month period following the hardship distribution, unless the Company determines that such payment would not jeopardize the tax-qualification of the Code §401(k) plan.
     (b) Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. The Board may establish a vesting schedule applicable to a Restricted Stock Unit and may specify the times, vesting and performance goal requirements that may be applicable to a Restricted Stock Unit. Until the end of the period(s) of time specified in any such vesting schedule and/or the satisfaction of any such performance criteria, the Restricted Stock Units subject to such Stock Incentive Agreement shall remain subject to forfeiture.
     (c) Acceleration of Award. The Board shall have the power to permit, in its sole discretion, an acceleration of the applicable restrictions or the applicable period of such restrictions with respect to any part or all of the Restricted Stock Units awarded to a Participant.
     (d) Necessity of Stock Incentive Agreement. Each grant of Restricted Stock Unit(s) shall be evidenced by a Stock Incentive Agreement that shall specify the terms, conditions and restrictions regarding the Participant’s right to receive Share(s) in the future, and shall incorporate such other terms and conditions as the Board, acting in its sole discretion, deems consistent with the terms of this Plan. The Board shall have sole discretion to modify the terms and provisions of Restricted Stock Unit(s) in accordance with Section 12 of this Plan.
     (e) Transferability of Restricted Stock Units. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Restricted Stock Unit Award, no Restricted Stock Unit granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated by the holder Participant, except upon the death of the holder Participant by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
     (f) Voting, Dividend & Other Rights. Unless the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement provides otherwise, holders of Restricted Stock Units shall not be entitled to vote or to receive dividends until they become owners of the Shares pursuant to their Restricted Stock Units.
     (g) Code §409A Requirements. A Restricted Stock Unit must meet certain restrictions contained in Code §409A if it is to avoid taxation under Code §409A as a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan.” Grants of Restricted Stock Units under this Plan should be made with consideration of the impact of Code §409A with respect to such grant upon both the Company and the recipient of the Restricted Stock Unit.
     (h) No ERISA Employee Benefit Plan Created. Except to the extent that the Board expressly determines otherwise in resolutions, a Restricted Stock Unit must contain terms and provisions designed to ensure that the Restricted Stock Unit will not be considered an “employee benefit plan” as defined in ERISA §3(3).
     (i) Restrictions on Shares Awarded. Shares awarded pursuant to Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to such restrictions as determined by the Board for periods determined by the Board. The Board may impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to a Restricted Stock Unit as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, vesting or performance-based restrictions, voting restrictions, investment intent restrictions, restrictions on transfer, restrictions or limitations or other provisions that would be applied to Share holders under any applicable agreement among the Share holders, and restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed and/or traded, and/or under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.
8 Securities Regulation
     Each Stock Incentive Agreement may provide that, upon the receipt of Shares as a result of the exercise of a Stock Incentive or otherwise, the Participant shall, if so requested by the Company, hold such Shares for investment and not with a view of resale or distribution to the public and, if so requested by the Company, shall deliver to the Company a written statement satisfactory to the Company to that effect. Each Stock Incentive

A-14


Table of Contents

Agreement may also provide that, if so requested by the Company, the Participant shall make a written representation to the Company that he or she will not sell or offer to sell any of such Shares unless a registration statement shall be in effect with respect to such Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”), and any applicable state securities law or, unless he or she shall have furnished to the Company an opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, of legal counsel acceptable to the Company, that such registration is not required. Certificates representing the Shares transferred upon the exercise of a Stock Incentive granted under this Plan may at the discretion of the Company bear a legend to the effect that such Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities law and that such Shares may not be sold or offered for sale in the absence of an effective registration statement as to such Shares under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities law or an opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, of legal counsel acceptable to the Company, that such registration is not required.
9 Life of Plan
     No Stock Incentive shall be granted under this Plan on or after the earlier of:
     9.1 The tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date of this Plan (or the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Amendment Date of any subsequent amendment to this Plan if such amendment would require the approval of the shareholders pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.422-2(b)(2) and such approval was obtained), or
     9.2 The date on which all of the Shares available for issuance under Section 3 of this Plan have (as a result of the exercise of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan, lapse of all restrictions under Restricted Stock Awards granted under this Plan, or vesting and payment of all Restricted Stock Units granted under this Plan) been issued or no longer are available for use under this Plan.
     After such date, this Plan shall continue in effect with respect to any then-outstanding Stock Incentives until (1) all then-outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights have been exercised in full or are no longer exercisable, (2) all Restricted Stock Awards have vested or been forfeited, and (3) all Restricted Stock Units have vested and been paid or been forfeited.
10 Adjustment
     Notwithstanding anything in Section 12 to the contrary, the number of Shares reserved under Section 3 of this Plan, the limit on the number of Shares that may be granted during a calendar year to any individual under Section 3 of this Plan, the number and type of Shares subject to Stock Incentives granted under this Plan, and the Exercise Price of any Options and the SAR Exercise Price of any Stock Appreciation Rights, may be adjusted by the Board in its sole discretion in an equitable manner to reflect any change in the capitalization of the Company, including, but not limited to, such changes as stock dividends or stock splits; provided, however, that the Board shall be required to make such adjustments if such change in the capitalization of the Company constitutes an “equity restructuring” as defined in FAS 123R. Furthermore, the Board shall have the right to, and may in its sole discretion, adjust (in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Code §424(a)) the number of Shares reserved under Section 3, and the number of Shares subject to Stock Incentives granted under this Plan, and the Exercise Price of any Options and the SAR Exercise Price of any Stock Appreciation Rights in the event of any corporate transaction described in Code §424(a) that provides for the substitution or assumption of such Stock Incentives; provided, however, that the Board shall be required to make such adjustments if such corporate transaction constitutes an “equity restructuring” as defined in FAS 123R. If any adjustment under this Section creates a fractional Share or a right to acquire a fractional Share, such fractional Share shall be disregarded, and the number of Shares reserved under this Plan and the number subject to any Stock Incentives granted under this Plan shall be the next lower number of Shares, rounding all fractions downward. An adjustment made under this Section by the Board shall be conclusive and binding on all affected persons and, further, shall not constitute an increase in the number of Shares reserved under Section 3.
11 Change of Control of Company
     11.1 General Rule for Options. Except as otherwise provided in a Stock Incentive Agreement, if a Change of Control occurs, and if the agreements effectuating the Change of Control do not provide for the assumption or substitution of all Options granted under this Plan, with respect to any Option granted under this Plan that is not so assumed or substituted (a “Non-Assumed Option”), the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may, with respect to any or all of such Non-Assumed Options, take any or all of the following actions to be effective

A-15


Table of Contents

as of the date of the Change of Control (or as of any other date fixed by the Committee occurring within the thirty (30) day period ending on the date of the Change of Control, but only if such action remains contingent upon the effectuation of the Change of Control) (such date referred to as the “Action Effective Date”):
     (a) Accelerate the vesting and/or exercisability of any such Non-Assumed Option; and/or
     (b) Unilaterally cancel any such Non-Assumed Option which has not vested and/or which has not become exercisable as of the Action Effective Date; and/or
     (c) Unilaterally cancel any such Non-Assumed Option in exchange for:
     (1) whole and/or fractional Shares (or for whole Shares and cash in lieu of any fractional Share) that, in the aggregate, are equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares that could be purchased subject to such Non-Assumed Option determined as of the Action Effective Date (taking into account vesting and/or exercisability) over the aggregate Exercise Price for such Shares; or
     (2) cash or other property equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares that could be purchased subject to such Non-Assumed Option determined as of the Action Effective Date (taking into account vesting and/or exercisability) over the aggregate Exercise Price for such Shares; and/or
     (d) Unilaterally cancel any such Non-Assumed Option after providing the holder of such Option with (1) an opportunity to exercise such Non-Assumed Option to the extent vested and/or exercisable (taking into account vesting and/or exercisability as of the date of the Change of Control) within a specified period prior to the date of the Change of Control, and (2) notice of such opportunity to exercise prior to the commencement of such specified period; and/or
     (e) Unilaterally cancel any such Non-Assumed Option and notify the holder of such Option of such action, but only if the Fair Market Value of the Shares that could be purchased subject to such Non-Assumed Option determined as of the Action Effective Date (taking into account vesting and/or exercisability) does not exceed the aggregate Exercise Price for such Shares.
However, notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the recipient of a Non-Assumed Option is an Insider, payment of cash in lieu of whole or fractional Shares or shares of a successor may only be made to the extent that such payment (1) has met the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (2) is a subsequent transaction the terms of which were provided for in a transaction initially meeting the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Unless a Stock Incentive Agreement provides otherwise, the payment of cash in lieu of whole or fractional Shares or in lieu of whole or fractional shares of a successor shall be considered a subsequent transaction approved by the original grant of an Option.
     11.2 General Rule for SARs. Except as otherwise provided in a Stock Incentive Agreement, if a Change of Control occurs, and if the agreements effectuating the Change of Control do not provide for the assumption or substitution of all Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan, with respect to any Stock Appreciation Right granted under this Plan that is not so assumed or substituted (a “Non-Assumed SAR”), the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may, with respect to any or all of such Non-Assumed SARs, take either or both of the following actions to be effective as of the date of the Change of Control (or as of any other date fixed by the Committee occurring within the thirty (30) day period ending on the date of the Change of Control, but only if such action remains contingent upon the effectuation of the Change of Control) (such date referred to as the “Action Effective Date”):
     (a) Accelerate the vesting and/or exercisability of such Non-Assumed SAR; and/or
     (b) Unilaterally cancel any such Non-Assumed SAR which has not vested or which has not become exercisable as of the Action Effective Date; and/or
     (c) Unilaterally cancel such Non-Assumed SAR in exchange for:
     (1) whole and/or fractional Shares (or for whole Shares and cash in lieu of any fractional Share) that, in the aggregate, are equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Non-Assumed SAR determined as of the Action Effective Date (taking

A-16


Table of Contents

into account vesting and/or exercisability) over the SAR Exercise Price for such Non-Assumed SAR; or
     (2) cash or other property equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Non-Assumed SAR determined as of the Action Effective Date (taking into account vesting and/or exercisability) over the SAR Exercise Price for such Non-Assumed SAR; and/or
     (d) Unilaterally cancel such Non-Assumed SAR after providing the holder of such SAR with (1) an opportunity to exercise such Non-Assumed SAR to the extent vested and/or exercisable (taking into account vesting and/or exercisability as of the date of the Change of Control) within a specified period prior to the date of the Change of Control, and (2) notice of such opportunity to exercise prior to the commencement of such specified period; and/or
     (e) Unilaterally cancel such Non-Assumed SAR and notify the holder of such SAR of such action, but only if the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Non-Assumed SAR determined as of the Action Effective Date (taking into account vesting and/or exercisability) does not exceed the SAR Exercise Price for such Non-Assumed SAR.
However, notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the recipient of a Non-Assumed SAR is an Insider, payment of cash in lieu of whole or fractional Shares or shares of a successor may only be made to the extent that such payment (1) has met the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (2) is a subsequent transaction the terms of which were provided for in a transaction initially meeting the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Unless a Stock Incentive Agreement provides otherwise, the payment of cash in lieu of whole or fractional Shares or in lieu of whole or fractional shares of a successor shall be considered a subsequent transaction approved by the original grant of a SAR.
     11.3 General Rule for Restricted Stock Units. Except as otherwise provided in a Stock Incentive Agreement, if a Change of Control occurs, and if the agreements effectuating the Change of Control do not provide for the assumption or substitution of all Restricted Stock Units granted under this Plan, with respect to any Restricted Stock Unit granted under this Plan that is not so assumed or substituted (a “Non-Assumed RSU”), the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may, with respect to any or all of such Non-Assumed RSUs, take either or both of the following actions to be effective as of the date of the Change of Control (or as of any other date fixed by the Committee occurring within the thirty (30) day period ending on the date of the Change of Control, but only if such action remains contingent upon the effectuation of the Change of Control) (such date referred to as the “Action Effective Date”):
     (a) Accelerate the vesting of such Non-Assumed RSU; and/or
     (b) Unilaterally cancel any such Non-Assumed RSU which has not vested as of the Action Effective Date; and/or
     (c) Unilaterally cancel such Non-Assumed RSU in exchange for:
     (1) whole and/or fractional Shares (or for whole Shares and cash in lieu of any fractional Share) that are equal to the number of Shares subject to such Non-Assumed RSU determined as of the Action Effective Date (taking into account vesting); or
     (2) cash or other property equal in value to the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Non-Assumed RSU determined as of the Action Effective Date (taking into account vesting); and/or
     (d) Unilaterally cancel such Non-Assumed RSU and notify the holder of such RSU of such action, but only if the Fair Market Value of the Shares that were subject to such Non-Assumed RSU determined as of the Action Effective Date (taking into account vesting) is zero.
However, notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the recipient of a Non-Assumed RSU is an Insider, payment of cash in lieu of whole or fractional Shares or shares of a successor may only be made to the extent that such payment (1) has met the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (2) is a subsequent transaction the terms of which were provided for in a transaction initially meeting the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Unless a Stock Incentive

Agreement provides otherwise, the payment of cash in lieu of whole or fractional Shares or in lieu of whole or fractional shares of a successor shall be considered a subsequent transaction approved by the original grant of an RSU.
     11.4 General Rule for Other Stock Incentive Agreements. If a Change of Control occurs, then, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Stock Incentive Agreement pertaining to a particular Stock Incentive or as otherwise provided in this Plan, each Stock Incentive shall be governed by applicable law and the documents effectuating the Change of Control.
12 Amendment or Termination
     This Plan may be amended by the Board from time to time to the extent that the Board deems necessary or appropriate; provided, however, no such amendment shall be made absent the approval of the shareholders of the Company (a) to increase the number of Shares reserved under Section 3, except as set forth in Section 9, (b) to extend the maximum life of the Plan under Section 9 or the maximum exercise period under Section 7, (c) to decrease the minimum Exercise Price under Section 7, or (d) to change the designation of Eligible Recipients eligible for Stock Incentives under Section 6. Shareholder approval of other material amendments (such as an expansion of the types of awards available under the Plan, an extension of the term of the Plan, a change to the method of determining the Exercise Price of Options issued under the Plan, or a change to the provisions of Section 7.2(j)) may also be required pursuant to rules promulgated by an established stock exchange or a national market system for the Plan to continue to be able to issue Stock Incentives which meet the Performance-Based Exception. The Board also may suspend the granting of Stock Incentives under this Plan at any time and may terminate this Plan at any time. The Company shall have the right to modify, amend or cancel any Stock Incentive after it has been granted if (a) the modification, amendment or cancellation does not diminish the rights or benefits of the Stock Incentive recipient under the Stock Incentive (provided, however, that a modification, amendment or cancellation that results solely in a change in the tax consequences with respect to a Stock Incentive shall not be deemed as a diminishment of rights or benefits of such Stock Incentive), (b) the Participant consents in writing to such modification, amendment or cancellation, (c) there is a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (d) this Plan and/or the Stock Incentive Agreement expressly provides for such modification, amendment or cancellation, or (e) the Company would otherwise have the right to make such modification, amendment or cancellation by applicable law. (See also Section 4 for a special provision providing for automatic termination of this Plan in certain circumstances.)
13 Performance Criteria for Performance-Based Exception
     13.1 Performance Goal Business Criteria. The following performance measure(s) must be used by a Committee composed of solely two (2) or more Outside Directors to determine the degree of payout and/or vesting with respect to a Stock Incentive granted pursuant to this Plan in order for such Stock Incentive to qualify for the Performance-Based Exception:
     (a) Earnings per share;
     (b) Net income (before or after taxes);
     (c) Return measures (including, but not limited to, return on assets, equity or sales);
     (d) Cash flow return on investments which equals net cash flows divided by owners equity;
     (e) Earnings before or after taxes, depreciation and/or amortization;
     (f) Gross revenues;
     (g) Operating income (before or after taxes);
     (h) Total shareholder returns;
     (i) Corporate performance indicators (indices based on the level of certain services provided to customers);
     (j) Achievement of sales targets;
     (k) Completion of acquisitions;

     (l) Cash generation, profit and/or revenue targets;
     (m) Growth measures, including revenue growth, as compared with a peer group or other benchmark;
     (n) Share price (including, but not limited to, growth measures and total shareholder return); and/or
     (o) Pre-tax profits.
The Board may propose for shareholder vote and shareholder approval a change in these general performance measures set forth in this Section at any time.
     13.2 Performance Periods. The Board shall have the discretion to determine the period during which any performance goal must be attained with respect to a Stock Incentive. Such period may be of any length, and must be established prior to the start of such period or within the first ninety (90) days of such period (provided that the performance criteria is not in any event set after 25% or more of such period has elapsed).
     13.3 Modifications to Performance Goal Business Criteria. In the event that the Board determines that it is advisable to grant Stock Incentives that shall not qualify for the Performance-Based Exception, the Board may make such grants without satisfying the requirements of Code §162(m) and without regard to the provisions of this Section 13; otherwise, a Committee composed exclusively of two (2) of more Outside Directors must make such grants.
14 Miscellaneous
     14.1 Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder of the Company as a result of the grant of a Stock Incentive to him or to her under this Plan or his or her exercise of such Stock Incentive pending the actual delivery of Shares subject to such Stock Incentive to such Participant.
     14.2 No Guarantee of Continued Relationship. The grant of a Stock Incentive to a Participant under this Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment and shall not confer on a Participant any rights upon his or her termination of employment or relationship with the Company in addition to those rights, if any, expressly set forth in the Stock Incentive Agreement that evidences his or her Stock Incentive.
     14.3 Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company as a condition precedent for the fulfillment of any Stock Incentive, an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, state and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Plan and/or any action taken by a Participant with respect to a Stock Incentive. Whenever Shares are to be issued to a Participant upon exercise of an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right, or satisfaction of conditions under a Restricted Stock Unit, or grant of or substantial vesting of a Restricted Stock Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant to remit to the Company, as a condition of exercise of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or as a condition to the fulfillment of the Restricted Stock Unit, or as a condition to the grant or substantial vesting of the Restricted Stock Award, an amount in cash (or, unless the Stock Incentive Agreement provides otherwise, in Shares) sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local withholding tax requirements at the time of such exercise, satisfaction of conditions, or grant or substantial vesting. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a Participant is an Insider, satisfaction of withholding requirements by having the Company withhold Shares may only be made to the extent that such withholding of Shares (1) has met the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (2) is a subsequent transaction the terms of which were provided for in a transaction initially meeting the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Unless the Stock Incentive Agreement provides otherwise, the withholding of shares to satisfy federal, state and local withholding tax requirements shall be a subsequent transaction approved by the original grant of a Stock Incentive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall payment of withholding taxes be made by a retention of Shares by the Company unless the Company retains only Shares with a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld.
     14.4 Notification of Disqualifying Dispositions of ISO Options. If a Participant sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to an Option that is an ISO on or before the later of (1) the date two (2) years after the date of grant of such Option, or (2) the date one (1) year after the exercise of such Option, then the Participant shall immediately notify the Company in writing of such sale or disposition and shall cooperate with the Company in providing sufficient information to the Company for the Company to properly report such sale or

disposition to the Internal Revenue Service. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that he may be subject to federal, state and/or local tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized by Participant from any such early disposition, and agrees that he shall include the compensation from such early disposition in his gross income for federal tax purposes. Participant also acknowledges that the Company may condition the exercise of any Option that is an ISO on the Participant’s express written agreement with these provisions of this Plan.
     14.5 Transfer. The transfer of an Employee between or among the Company, a Subsidiary or a Parent shall not be treated as a termination of his or her employment under this Plan.
     14.6 Governing Law. The laws of the State of Georgia shall govern this Plan and any Stock Incentive Agreement issued hereunder. If Georgia’s conflict of law rules would apply another state’s laws, the laws of the State of Georgia shall still govern.
