INDEMNIFICATION.
|
7.1 Indemnification.
Each of
the Major Buyer Shareholders agrees to indemnify and hold Target and its
officers, directors, and affiliates, including but not limited to Buyer and the
Surviving Corporation (the “Indemnitees”) harmless
against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, deficiencies, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses of investigation
(hereinafter individually a “Loss” and collectively “Losses”) incurred by Target,
its officers, directors, or affiliates (including Buyer and the Surviving
Corporation) directly or indirectly as a result of (i) any inaccuracy or breach
of a representation or warranty of such Major Buyer Shareholder contained in
this Agreement, (ii) any failure of such Major Buyer Shareholder to perform or
comply with any covenant contained in this Agreement, or (iii) any failure of
Buyer or any of the Major Buyer Shareholders to comply with all Legal
Requirements in connection with Buyer's private offerings of securities prior to
the Closing Date. The
representations, warranties and covenants made by each Major Buyer Shareholder
in this Agreement shall survive for a period expiring on the date that is
twenty-four (24) months following the Closing (the "Survival Date") and any
action for a breach of a Major Buyer Shareholder's representations or
warranties, the failure of a Major Buyer Shareholder to comply with a covenant
hereunder or any Loss under this Section 7.1 must be made and
filed by the Survival Date. Any claim for a breach of a Major Buyer
Shareholder's representations or warranties, the failure of a Major Buyer
Shareholder to comply with a covenant hereunder or any Loss under this Section 7.1 which is not made
and filed by an Indemnitee prior to the Survival Date shall, from and after the
Survival Date, be deemed to have been waived by such Indemnitee and rendered
null and void and of no further force and effect.
7.2 Warranty
of No Claims.
Buyer and
Major Buyer Shareholders hereby represent and warrant, that to the best of their
knowledge and belief, there is no known past condition or set of facts relating
to the executive officers and directors of Buyer which will give rise to any
claims, demands, obligations, actions or causes of action, of any nature
whatsoever, which a party may now have, or which may hereafter accrue or
otherwise be acquired, arising out of tort, contract, securities, or other
theories of liability related to the duties and obligations imposed upon the
executive officers and directors of Buyer.
7.3 Indemnity
Procedure.
Within 15
days after service upon an indemnified party of a summons or other first legal
process in connection with the commencement of any action, such indemnified
party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying
party under this Section
7, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof;
the omission to notify the indemnifying party will relieve it from any liability
which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section (but not
otherwise) if the indemnifying party proves that it has been materially
prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action is brought
against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in
and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party,
similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this
Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
costs of investigation.
7.4 Payment.
Each Loss
that the Major Buyer Shareholders are liable to indemnify for pursuant to this
Section 7 shall be paid
by reducing the amount then owed by Target to the Major Buyer Shareholders under
the Stock Purchase Agreement attached as Exhibit C dollar for dollar
for each Loss. In the event that the no amounts are then owed to
Major Buyer Shareholders under the Stock Purchase Agreement, or in the event
that the amount of a Loss is in excess of the amounts then owed to Major Buyer
Shareholders under the Stock Purchase Agreement, the amount of the Loss shall be
paid in cash to the indemnified party by the Major Buyer
Shareholders.

Corporation, the officers of the respective Constituent Companies shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver such instruments and do such acts as may be necessary or
required. For such purposes, the existence of the Constituent
Companies and the authority of their respective officers and directors are
continued, notwithstanding the merger.

ARTICLE
V.
CONVERSION
OR CANCELLATION OF CHARMED
COMMON
STOCK ON MERGER
A. As
of the Effective Date, by virtue of the merger of the Constituent
Companies:
(1) Without
any action on the part of the holder thereof, each share of common stock, $0.001
par value, of Charmed ("Charmed Common Stock") which is issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Date shall thereupon be converted into and
become 1 fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, $0.001 par value,
of Iveda ("Iveda Common Stock"). Notwithstanding any other provisions
of this Agreement, any shares of Charmed Common Stock which are unissued by
Charmed immediately prior to the Effective Date shall not be converted but shall
be canceled.
(2) The
holders of certificates representing shares of Charmed Common Stock shall cease
to have any rights as shareholders of Charmed and the sole and indivisible right
of such holders shall be the right to receive (i) the number of whole shares of
Iveda Common Stock into which their shares of Charmed Common Stock shall have
been converted by the merger as provided above, and (ii) the corresponding right
to receive the cash value of any fraction of a share of Iveda Common Stock as
provided below.
3
(3) No
certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Iveda Common Stock shall
be issued upon the surrender or exchange of Charmed certificates, no dividend or
other distribution of Iveda shall relate to any fractional Iveda shares, and
such fractional Iveda share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to
vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Iveda. In lieu of any
fractional share of Iveda Common Stock which a stockholder of Charmed would
otherwise be entitled to receive, the Exchange Agent hereafter prescribed shall,
upon surrender of a Charmed Common Stock certificate, pay to the holder of Iveda
Common Stock certificates issued in exchange therefor, an amount of cash
(without interest) determined by multiplying (i) the price of Iveda Common Stock
which shall be $1.00, times (ii) the fractional Iveda Common Stock share
interest to which such shareholder would otherwise be entitled.
B. By
virtue of the merger of the Constituent Companies:
(1) As
soon as practicable after the Effective Date, Iveda shall make available for
exchange and conversion in accordance with this Article V, by making available
to the Exchange Agent (as hereafter prescribed) for the benefit of the
shareholders of Charmed, such number of shares of Iveda Common Stock as shall be
issuable in exchange for outstanding shares of Charmed Common Stock (net of the
aggregate number of fractional shares of Iveda in lieu of which cash will be
paid). In addition, Iveda will make available to the Exchange Agent,
from time to time upon request of the Exchange Agent, such cash as may be
necessary to make the cash payments with respect to fractional shares of Iveda
Common Stock as provided above.
(2) As
soon as practicable after the Effective Date, Iveda or its designee, acting as
Exchange Agent to effect the exchange of certificates (the "Exchange Agent"),
shall mail to each holder of record a certificate or certificates which
immediately prior to the Effective Date represented outstanding shares of
Charmed Common Stock (the "Certificates"), (i) a form of letter of transmittal
(which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title
to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the
Exchange Agent), and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the
Certificates in exchange for certificates representing Iveda Common Stock, and
the cash payment in lieu of fractional shares of Iveda Common Stock as set forth
above.
(3) After
the Effective Date, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the
books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Charmed Common Stock that
were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date. If, after
the Effective Date, certificates representing such shares or interests are
presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be canceled and exchanged for
certificates representing shares of Iveda Common Stock and for cash as provided
in this Article V.
C. The
conversion ratio for converting the shares of Charmed Common Stock into shares
of Iveda Common Stock shall be proportionately adjusted in the event of any
stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, exchange, readjustment or
combination of shares or similar actions involving the Iveda Common Stock and
Charmed Common Stock having a record date occurring between the date of
execution of the Merger Plan and the Effective Date.

action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which
they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to
act under or in connection with the Plan, or any right granted hereunder, and
against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement
is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the Company) or paid by
them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding,
except in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged in such action,
suit or proceeding that such person is liable for gross negligence, bad faith or
intentional misconduct in duties; provided, however, that within sixty (60) days
after the institution of such action, suit or proceeding, such person shall
offer to the Company, in writing, the opportunity at its own expense to handle
and defend the same.
4. Shares Subject to
Plan.
4.1 Maximum Number of Shares
Issuable. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2, the
maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan
shall be One Million Five Hundred Thousand (1,500,000) and shall consist of
authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Stock or any combination
thereof. If an outstanding Option for any reason expires or is
terminated or canceled or if shares of Stock are acquired upon the exercise of
an Option subject to a Company repurchase option and are repurchased by the
Company at the Optionee’s exercise price, the shares of Stock allocable to the
unexercised portion of such Option or such repurchased shares of Stock shall
again be available for issuance under the Plan.
4.2 Adjustments for Changes in Capital
Structure. Subject
to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, in the event of any
change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company,
whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation,
recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock
split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares,
or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of
payment of a dividend or distribution to the shareholders of the Company in a
form other than Stock (excepting normal cash dividends) that has a material
effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, appropriate and
proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number and class of shares
subject to the Plan and to any outstanding Options, in the ISO Share Issuance
Limit set forth in Section 4.1, and
in the exercise price per share of any outstanding Options. If a
majority of the shares which are of the same class as the shares that are
subject to outstanding Options are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise
become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event, as defined in
Section 8.1)
shares of another corporation (the “New
Shares”),
the Board may unilaterally amend the outstanding Options to provide that such
Options are exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such
amendment, the number of shares subject to, and the exercise price per share of,
the outstanding Options shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner as
determined by the Board, in its discretion. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this
Section 4.2
shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and in no event may the
exercise price of any Option be decreased to an amount less than the par value,
if any, of the stock subject to the Option. The adjustments
determined by the Board pursuant to this Section 4.2
shall be final, binding and conclusive.
5. Eligibility and Option
Limitations.
5.1 Persons Eligible for
Options. Options
may be granted only to Employees, Consultants, and Directors, except for Options
granted in exchange for options issued under the IntelaSight, Inc. 2008 Stock
Option Plan, which may be issued to any person who, at the time of the initial
grant by IntelaSight, Inc., was eligible for the grant of an option under the
IntelaSight, Inc. 2008 Stock Option Plan. For purposes of the
foregoing sentence, “Employees,” “Consultants” and “Directors” shall include
prospective Employees, prospective Consultants and prospective Directors to whom
Options are granted in connection with written offers of an employment or other
service relationship with the Participating Company Group. Eligible
persons may be granted more than one (1) Option. However, eligibility
in accordance with this Section shall not entitle any person to be granted an
Option, or, having been granted an Option, to be granted an additional
Option.
5.2 Option Grant Restrictions. Any
person who is not an Employee on the effective date of the grant of an Option to
such person may be granted only a Nonstatutory Stock Option. An
Incentive Stock Option granted to a prospective Employee upon the condition that
such person become an Employee shall be deemed granted effective on the date
such person commences Service with a Participating Company, with an exercise
price determined as of such date in accordance with Section 6.1.
5.3 Fair Market Value
Limitation. To
the extent that options designated as Incentive Stock Options (granted under all
stock option plans of the Participating Company Group, including the Plan)
become exercisable by an Optionee for the first time during any calendar year
for stock having a Fair Market Value greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000.00), the portions of such options which exceed such amount shall be
treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 5.3,
options designated as Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the
order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of stock shall be
determined as of the time the option with respect to such stock is
granted. If the Code is amended to provide for a different limitation
from that set forth in this Section 5.3,
such different limitation shall be deemed incorporated herein effective as of
the date and with respect to such Options as required or permitted by such
amendment to the Code. If an Option is treated as an Incentive Stock
Option in part and as a Nonstatutory Stock Option in part by reason of the
limitation set forth in this Section 5.3, the
Optionee may designate which portion of such Option the Optionee is
exercising. In the absence of such designation, the Optionee shall be
deemed to have exercised the Incentive Stock Option portion of the Option
first. Separate certificates representing each such portion shall be
issued upon the exercise of the Option.
6. Terms and Conditions of
Options.
Option
Agreements specifying the number of shares of Stock covered thereby, in such
form as the Board shall from time to time establish shall evidence
Options. No Option or purported Option shall be a valid and binding
obligation of the Company unless evidenced by a fully executed Option
Agreement. Option Agreements may incorporate all or any of the terms
of the Plan by reference and shall comply with and be subject to the following
terms and conditions:
6.1 Exercise Price. The
exercise price for each Option shall be established in the discretion of the
Board, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code; provided, however,
that (a) the exercise price per share for an Incentive Stock Option shall
be not less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the effective date
of grant of the Option and (b) no Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten
Percent Owner Optionee shall have an exercise price per share less than one
hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the
effective date of grant of the Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
an Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than the Fair Market Value
of a share of stock on the effective date of the grant if the option is a
Nonstatutory Stock Option, and options granted in exchange for options issued
under the Intelasight, Inc. 2008 Stock Option Plan shall have the exercise price
specified on the options being exchanged.
6.2 Exercisability and Term of
Options. Options
shall be exercisable at such time or times, or upon such event or events, and
subject to such terms, conditions, performance criteria and restrictions as
shall be determined by the Board and set forth in the Option Agreement
evidencing such Option; provided, however, that (a) no Incentive Stock
Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years after the
effective date of grant of such Option, (b) no Incentive Stock Option
granted to a Ten Percent Owner Optionee shall be exercisable after the
expiration of five (5) years after the effective date of grant of such Option,
and (c) no Option granted to a prospective Employee, prospective Consultant
or prospective Director may become exercisable prior to the date on which such
person commences Service with a Participating Company. Subject to the
foregoing, unless otherwise specified by the Board in the grant of an Option,
any Option granted hereunder shall terminate ten (10) years after the effective
date of grant of the Option, unless earlier terminated in accordance with its
provisions.
6.3 Payment of Exercise
Price.
(a) Forms of
Consideration Authorized. Except as otherwise provided below,
payment of the exercise price for the number of shares of Stock being purchased
pursuant to any Option shall be made (i) in cash, by check or cash
equivalent, (ii) by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership,
of shares of Stock owned by the Optionee having a Fair Market Value not less
than the exercise price, (iii) by delivery of a properly executed notice
together with irrevocable instructions to a broker providing for the assignment
to the Company of the proceeds of a sale or loan with respect to some or all of
the shares being acquired upon the exercise of the Option (including, without
limitation, through an exercise complying with the provisions of
Regulation T as promulgated from time to time by the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System) (a “Cashless
Exercise”),
(iv) provided that the Optionee is an Employee (unless otherwise not
prohibited by law, including, without limitation, any regulation promulgated by
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and in the Company’s sole
discretion at the time the Option is exercised, by delivery of the Optionee’s
promissory note in a form approved by the Company for the aggregate exercise
price, provided that, if the Company is incorporated in the State of Delaware,
the Optionee shall pay in cash that portion of the aggregate exercise price not
less than the par value of the shares being acquired, (v) by such other
consideration as may be approved by the Board from time to time to the extent
permitted by applicable law, or (vi) by any combination
thereof. The Board may at any time or from time to time, by approval
of or by amendment to the standard forms of Option Agreement described in Section 7, or by
other means, grant Options which do not permit all of the foregoing forms of
consideration to be used in payment of the exercise price or which otherwise
restrict one or more forms of consideration.
(b) Limitations on
Forms of Consideration.
(i) Tender of
Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option may not be
exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of shares
of Stock to the extent such tender or attestation would constitute a violation
of the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption
of the Company’s stock. Unless otherwise provided by the Board, an
Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the
ownership, of shares of Stock unless such shares either have been owned by the
Optionee for more than six (6) months (and not used for another Option exercise
by attestation during such period) or were not acquired, directly or indirectly,
from the Company.
(ii) Cashless
Exercise. The Company reserves, at any and all times, the
right, in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, to establish, decline to
approve or terminate any program or procedures for the exercise of Options by
means of a Cashless Exercise.
(iii) Payment by Promissory
Note. No promissory note shall be permitted if the exercise of
an Option using a promissory note would be a violation of any
law. Any permitted promissory note shall be on such terms as the
Board shall determine. The Board shall have the authority to permit
or require the Optionee to secure any promissory note used to exercise an Option
with the shares of Stock acquired upon the exercise of the Option or with other
collateral acceptable to the Company. Unless otherwise provided by
the Board, if the Company at any time is subject to the regulations promulgated
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other
governmental entity affecting the extension of credit in connection with the
Company’s securities, any promissory note shall comply with such applicable
regulations, and the Optionee shall pay the unpaid principal and accrued
interest, if any, to the extent necessary to comply with such applicable
regulations.
6.4 Tax Withholding. The
Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deduct from the shares
of Stock issuable upon the exercise of an Option, or to accept from the Optionee
the tender of, a number of whole shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value, as
determined by the Company, equal to all or any part of the federal, state, local
and foreign taxes, if any, required by law to be withheld by the Participating
Company Group with respect to such Option or the shares acquired upon the
exercise thereof. Alternatively or in addition, in its discretion,
the Company shall have the right to require the Optionee, through payroll
withholding, cash payment or otherwise, including by means of a Cashless
Exercise, to make adequate provision for any such tax withholding obligations of
the Participating Company Group arising in connection with the Option or the
shares acquired upon the exercise thereof. The Fair Market Value of
any shares of Stock withheld or tendered to satisfy any such tax withholding
obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum
statutory withholding rates. The Company shall have no obligation to
deliver shares of Stock or to release shares of Stock from an escrow established
pursuant to the Option Agreement until the Optionee has satisfied the
Participating Company Group’s tax withholding obligations.
6.5 Repurchase Rights. Shares
issued under the Plan may be subject to a right of first refusal, one or more
repurchase options, or other conditions and restrictions as determined by the
Board in its discretion at the time the Option is granted. The
Company shall have the right to assign at any time any repurchase right it may
have, whether or not such right is then exercisable, to one or more persons as
may be selected by the Company. Upon request by the Company, each
Optionee shall execute any agreement evidencing such transfer restrictions prior
to the receipt of shares of Stock hereunder and shall promptly present to the
Company any and all certificates representing shares of Stock acquired hereunder
for the placement on such certificates of appropriate legends evidencing any
such transfer restrictions.
6.6 Effect of Termination of
Service.
(a) Option
Exercisability. Subject to
earlier termination of the Option as otherwise provided herein and unless
otherwise provided by the Board in the grant of an Option and set forth in the
Option Agreement, an Option shall be exercisable after an Optionee’s termination
of Service only during the applicable time period determined in accordance with
this Section 6.6 and thereafter shall terminate:
(i) Disability. If the
Optionee’s Service terminates because of the Disability of the Optionee, the
Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the
Optionee’s Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee (or the
Optionee’s guardian or legal representative) at any time prior to the expiration
of twelve (12) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board,
in its discretion) after the date on which the Optionee’s Service terminated,
but in any event no later than the date of expiration of the Option’s term as
set forth in the Option Agreement evidencing such Option (the “Option Expiration
Date”).
(ii) Death. If the
Optionee’s Service terminates because of the death of the Optionee, the Option,
to the extent unexercised and exercisable on the date on which the Optionee’s
Service terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee’s legal representative or
other person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by reason of the
Optionee’s death at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months (or
such longer period of time as determined by the Board, in its discretion) after
the date on which the Optionee’s Service terminated, but in any event no later
than the Option Expiration Date. The Optionee’s Service shall be
deemed to have terminated on account of death if the Optionee dies within three
(3) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board, in its
discretion) after the Optionee’s termination of Service.
(iii) Termination for
Cause. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Option
Agreement, if the Optionee’s Service is terminated for Cause, the Option shall
terminate and cease to be exercisable on the effective date of such termination
of Service. Unless otherwise defined in a contract of employment or
service between the Optionee and a Participating Company, for purposes of this
Option Agreement “Cause” shall mean any of the
following: (1) the Optionee’s theft, dishonesty, willful misconduct, breach
of fiduciary duty for personal profit, or falsification of any Participating
Company documents or records; (2) the Optionee’s material failure to abide
by a Participating Company’s code of conduct or other policies (including,
without limitation, policies relating to confidentiality and reasonable
workplace conduct); (3) the Optionee’s unauthorized use, misappropriation,
destruction, or diversion of any tangible or intangible asset or corporate
opportunity of a Participating Company (including, without limitation, the
Optionee’s improper use or disclosure of a Participating Company’s confidential
or proprietary information); (4) any intentional act by the Optionee which
has a material detrimental effect on a Participating Company’s reputation or
business; (5) the Optionee’s failure or inability to perform any reasonable
assigned duties after written notice from a Participating Company of, and a
reasonable opportunity to cure, such failure or inability; (6) any material
breach by the Optionee of any employment or service agreement between the
Optionee and a Participating Company, which breach is not cured pursuant to the
terms of such agreement; or (7) the Optionee’s conviction (including any
plea of guilty or nolo contendere) of any criminal act involving fraud,
dishonesty, misappropriation, or moral turpitude, or which impairs the
Optionee’s ability to perform his or her duties with a Participating
Company.
(iv) Other Termination of
Service. If the Optionee’s Service terminates for any reason,
except Disability, death or Cause, the Option, to the extent unexercised and
exercisable by the Optionee on the date on which the Optionee’s Service
terminated, may be exercised by the Optionee at any time prior to the expiration
of three (3) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board,
in its discretion) after the date on which the Optionee’s Service terminated,
but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.
(b) Extension if
Exercise Prevented by Law. Notwithstanding
the foregoing (except Termination for Cause), if the exercise of an Option
within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 6.6(a) is prevented
by the provisions of Section 9 below, the Option shall remain exercisable
until three (3) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the
Board, in its discretion) after the date the Optionee is notified by the Company
that the Option is exercisable, but in any event no later than the Option
Expiration Date.
(c) Extension if
Optionee Subject to Section 16(b). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if a sale within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 6.6(a)
of shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option would subject the Optionee to
suit under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Option shall remain
exercisable until the earliest to occur of (i) the tenth (10th) day
following the date on which a sale of such shares by the Optionee would no
longer be subject to such suit, (ii) the one hundred and ninetieth (190th)
day after the Optionee’s termination of Service, or (iii) the Option
Expiration Date.
6.7 Transferability of
Options. During the lifetime of the Optionee, an Option shall
be exercisable only by the Optionee or the Optionee’s guardian or legal
representative. No Option shall be assignable or transferable by the
Optionee, except by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted
by the Board, in its discretion, and set forth in the Option Agreement
evidencing such Option, a Nonstatutory Stock Option shall be assignable or
transferable subject to Rule 701 under the Securities Act and the General
Instructions to Form S-8 Registration Statement under the Securities
Act.
7. Standard Forms of Option
Agreement.
7.1 Option Agreement. Unless
otherwise provided by the Board at the time the Option is granted, an Option
shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the
form of Option Agreement approved by the Board concurrently with its adoption of
the Plan and as amended from time to time.
7.2 Authority to Vary Terms. The
Board shall have the authority from time to time to vary the terms of any
standard form of Option Agreement described in this Section 7 either
in connection with the grant or amendment of an individual Option or in
connection with the authorization of a new standard form or forms; provided,
however, that the terms and conditions of any such new, revised or amended
standard form or forms of Option Agreement are not inconsistent with the terms
of the Plan.
8. Change in
Control.
8.1 Definitions.
(a) An
“Ownership Change
Event”
shall be deemed to have occurred if any of the following occurs with respect to
the Company: (i) the direct or indirect sale or exchange in a single
or series of related transactions by the shareholders of the Company of more
than fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Company; (ii) a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is a party; (iii) the sale, exchange, or
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) a
liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
(b) A
“Change in
Control”
shall mean an Ownership Change Event or a series of related Ownership Change
Events (collectively, a “Transaction”)
wherein the shareholders of the Company immediately before the Transaction do
not retain immediately after the Transaction, in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership of shares of the Company’s voting stock
immediately before the Transaction, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of
more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the
outstanding voting securities of the Company or, in the case of a Transaction
described in Section 8.1(a)(iii), the corporation or other business entity to
which the assets of the Company were transferred (the “Transferee”),
as the case may be. For purposes of the preceding sentence, indirect
beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest resulting
from ownership of the voting securities of one or more corporations or other
business entities which own the Company or the Transferee, as the case may be,
either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations or other business
entities. The Board shall have the right to determine whether
multiple sales or exchanges of the voting securities of the Company or multiple
Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final,
binding and conclusive.
8.2 Effect of Change in Control on
Options.
(a) In
the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or
purchasing corporation or other business entity or parent thereof, as the case
may be (the “Acquiror”),
may, without the consent of the Optionee, either assume the Company’s rights and
obligations under outstanding Options or substitute for outstanding Options
substantially equivalent options for the Acquiror’s stock. Any
Options which are neither assumed or substituted for by the Acquiror in
connection with the Change in Control nor exercised as of the date of the Change
in Control shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the date
of the Change in Control, provided, that, notwithstanding
any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Board may, in its sole
discretion, provide in any Option Agreement or, in the event of a Change in
Control, may take such actions as it deems appropriate, to provide for the
acceleration of the exercisability and vesting in connection with such Change in
Control of any or all of the outstanding Options and any shares acquired upon
the exercise of such Options, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the
Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares acquired upon exercise of
an Option prior to the Change in Control and any consideration received pursuant
to the Change in Control with respect to such shares shall continue to be
subject to all applicable provisions of the Option Agreement evidencing such
Option except as otherwise provided in such Option
Agreement. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
corporation the stock of which is subject to the outstanding Options immediately
prior to an Ownership Change Event described in Section 8.1(a)(i)
constituting a Change in Control is the surviving or continuing corporation and
immediately after such Ownership Change Event less than fifty percent (50%) of
the total combined voting power of its voting stock is held by another
corporation or by other corporations that are members of an affiliated group
within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the Code without regard to the
provisions of Section 1504(b) of the Code, the outstanding Options shall
not terminate unless the Board otherwise provides in its
discretion.
(b) The
Board may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any Optionee,
determine that, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each or any Option
outstanding immediately prior to the Change in Control shall be canceled in
exchange for a payment with respect to each vested share of Stock subject to
such canceled Option in (i) cash, (ii) stock of the Company, the Acquiror or of
a corporation or other business entity a party to the Change in Control, or
(iii) other property which, in any such case, shall be in an amount having a
Fair Market Value equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the
consideration to be paid per share of Stock in the Change in Control over the
exercise price per share under the Option (the “Spread”). In
the event such determination is made by the Board, the Spread (reduced by
applicable withholding taxes, if any) shall be paid to Optionees in respect of
their canceled Options as soon as practicable following the date of the Change
in Control.
9. Compliance with Securities
Law.
The grant
of Options and the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise of Options shall be
subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state and
foreign law with respect to such securities. Options may not be
exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise would constitute a
violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other
law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system
upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, no Option may
be exercised unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act
shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the
shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (b) in the opinion of legal
counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be
issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. The inability of the
Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if
any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful
issuance and sale of any shares hereunder shall relieve the Company of any
liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which
such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition
to the exercise of any Option, the Company may require the Optionee to satisfy
any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance
with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty
with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
10. Termination or Amendment of
Plan.
The Board
may terminate or amend the Plan at any time. No termination or
amendment of the Plan shall affect any then outstanding Option unless expressly
provided by the Board. In any event, no termination or amendment of
the Plan may adversely affect any then outstanding Option without the consent of
the Optionee, unless such termination or amendment is required to enable an
Option designated as an Incentive Stock Option to qualify as an Incentive Stock
Option or is necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation or
rule.
