12. Adjustments and Other Rights. The Exercise Price and Option Shares subject to this Option shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided that if more than one subsection of this Section 12 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment, no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 12 so as to result in duplication and for the avoidance of doubt, no increase to the Exercise Price or decrease in the number of Option Shares subject to this Option shall be made pursuant to this Section 12.

(i) Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time (a) declare, order, pay or make a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (b) split, subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or (c) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of Option Shares subject to this Option at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Optionholder immediately after such record date or effective date, as the case may be, shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Common Stock subject to this Option after such date had this Option been exercised in full immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be. In the event of such adjustment, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be immediately adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Option Shares subject to this Option in full before the adjustment determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record or effective date, as the case may be, for the dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, combination or reclassification giving rise to such adjustment by (y) the new number of Option Shares subject to this Option in full determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(ii) Distributions. If the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a dividend or other distribution (by spin-off or otherwise) on shares of Common Stock, whether in cash, Equity Interests of the Company, other securities of the Company, evidences of indebtedness of the Company or any other Person or any other property (including Equity Interests, other securities or evidences of indebtedness of a subsidiary), or any combination thereof, excluding (x) dividends or distributions subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 12(i) or (y) dividends or distributions of rights in connection with the adoption of a stockholder rights plan in customary form (including with respect to the receipt of such rights in respect of shares of Common Stock issued subsequent to the initial dividend or distribution of such rights), then (a) in the case of any such cash dividend or distribution, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such record date shall be reduced by the gross amount of such cash dividend or distribution without giving effect to any withholding or deduction of taxes at the source by or on behalf of any applicable authority having power to tax in respect of such cash dividend or distribution and (b) in each such other case, in addition to the number of Option Shares subject to this Option, the Optionholder shall be entitled to receive such Equity Interests of the Company, other securities of the Company, evidences of indebtedness of the Company or any other Person or any other property (including Equity Interests, other securities or evidences of indebtedness of a subsidiary), or any combination thereof, that a holder of such number of shares of Common Stock on such record date would have been entitled to receive as a result of such dividend or other distribution. For purposes of the foregoing, in the event that such dividend or distribution in question is ultimately not so made, the Exercise Price and the number of Option Shares subject to this Option then in effect shall be readjusted, effective as of the date when the Board of Directors determines not to make such dividend or distribution, to the Exercise Price that would then be in effect and the number of Option

-7-

Shares that would then be subject this Option if such record date had not been fixed. The provisions of this Section 12 shall apply in respect of any Equity Interests that the Optionholder may become entitled to receive by operation of this Section 12(ii).

(iii) Merger Event. In case of any Merger Event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (a) the Exercise Price shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of cash, if any, forming part of the merger consideration per share of Common Stock (assuming for this purpose that any election to receive cash in respect of shares of Common Stock is made for the maximum amount of cash that may be delivered) and (b) the Optionholder’s right to receive Option Shares upon exercise of this Option shall be converted, effective upon the occurrence of such Merger Event, into the right to exercise this Option to acquire the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) that the Common Stock subject to (at the time of such Merger Event) this Option immediately prior to such Merger Event would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Merger Event (assuming for this purpose that any election to receive cash in respect of shares of Common Stock is made for the maximum amount of cash that may be delivered).

(iv) Calculation of Certain Option Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that any Equity Interests, other securities of the Company or any other Person or any other property that the Optionholder may become entitled to receive by operation of this Section 12 (individually and collectively, “Option Property”) shall, by its terms, in whole or in part, (x) mature or expire prior to the Expiration Time, or (y) require the giving of any notice or the taking of any action the failure of either of which could result in (1) the forfeiture of rights or value to which the holder thereof would otherwise be entitled prior to the Expiration Time or (2) the maturation or expiration of such Option Property prior to the Expiration Time, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced by the fair market value of such Option Property determined in accordance with this Section 12(iv). The fair market value of Option Property that is listed or traded on an exchange or the prices for which are available on a quotation system shall be the last sale price for such Option Property on such exchange or quotation system. If such Option Property is not listed or traded an exchange or quotation system, the Registrar shall determine the fair market value of such Option Property based on prices for such Option Property obtained from several leading dealers in the market for such Option Property, or if such prices are not available to the Registrar notwithstanding its commercially reasonable efforts so to procure, the fair market value of such Option Property shall be determined by a nationally recognized investment banking, accounting or valuation firm mutually agreed by the Registrar and the Optionholder.

(v) Statement Regarding Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Option Shares subject to this Option shall be adjusted as provided in this Section 12, the Registrar shall determine the amount and form of any such adjustment in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner and shall prepare a statement showing in reasonable detail the basis for such determination (including any quotations, market data or information from internal or external sources, and any assumptions, used in making such determination) and cause a copy of such statement to be delivered to the Optionholder as promptly as practicable and in no event later than 5 Business Days following its determination regarding such adjustment.

(vi) Notice of Adjustment Event. In the event that the Company takes any action of the type described in this Section 12 (but only if the action of the type described in this Section 12 would result in an adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Option Shares subject to this Option or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Option), the Registrar shall provide written notice to the Optionholder, which notice shall set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the proposed effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which upon the delivery of such shares or other securities or property to a holder of Common Stock, is expected to be deliverable to the Optionholder upon exercise of this Option and show in reasonable detail the basis for such determination (including any quotations, market data or information from internal or external sources, and any assumptions, used in making such determination).

(vii) Adjustment Rules. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 12 shall be made (a) successively whenever an event referred to herein shall occur and (b) in a manner consistent with the adjustments made to the “Option Shares” or “Exercise Price” (in each case as defined in the Matching Option Instrument), as the case may be, pursuant to Section 12 of the Matching Option Instrument. If an adjustment in the Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Exercise Price to an amount below par value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in the Exercise Price made hereunder shall reduce the Exercise Price to the par value of the Common Stock.

(b) Neither the execution and delivery of this Option nor the incurrence or performance of the obligations of such party hereunder will conflict with or result in a breach of (1) the certificate of incorporation or by laws (or any equivalent documents) of the Grantor or (2) any agreement or instrument to which the Grantor is a party or by which it is bound or to which it is subject, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien under, any such agreement or instrument, except, in the case of clause (2), to the extent that such conflict, breach, default or lien would not have a material adverse effect on the Grantor, this Option or the Optionholder’s rights or obligations relating to this Option, or the power or ability of the Grantor to execute and deliver this Option or perform its obligations hereunder.

(iii) The Registrar represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Grantor and the Optionholder that:

(b) Neither the execution and delivery of this Option nor the incurrence or performance of the obligations of such party hereunder will conflict with or result in a breach of (1) the certificate of incorporation or by laws (or any equivalent documents) of the Grantor or (2) any agreement or instrument to which the Grantor is a party or by which it is bound or to which it is subject, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien under, any such agreement or instrument, except, in the case of clause (2), to the extent that such conflict, breach, default or lien would not have a material adverse effect on the Registrar, this Option or the Registrar’s rights or obligations relating to this Option, or the power or ability of the Registrar to execute and deliver this Option or perform its obligations hereunder.

14. Tax Matters.

-9-

(i) The parties agree that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, this Option and the Matching Option Instrument shall be treated as a single call option that SBGC issued to DT with respect to the shares of Common Stock covered thereby that, together with the Floating Option Instrument, is granted as consideration for DT’s delivery of the consent under the Proxy Agreement. The parties shall not take, and shall cause their affiliates not to take, any position inconsistent with this Section 14(i) for U.S. federal income tax filing or reporting purposes, unless otherwise required by a Final Determination.

(ii) The Grantor represents and warrants to the Optionholder that it is a Delaware limited liability company that is treated as disregarded as separate from a United States person (as that term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(iii) Upon the reasonable request of the Optionholder, the Grantor agrees to deliver to the Optionholder, as applicable, a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor thereto), and the Optionholder agrees to deliver to the Grantor, as applicable, a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or Form W-9 (or successor thereto) and any other tax forms or documentation requested by the Grantor that Optionholder is eligible to deliver.

(iv) Each party and any of its affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount payable pursuant to this Option such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under applicable tax law. To the extent amounts are so withheld and paid over to or deposited with the relevant taxing authority, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Option as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. In addition, to the extent that amounts are withheld and paid over to or deposited with the relevant taxing authority by the Matching Option Grantor with respect to the Matching Option Instrument, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Option as having been paid to the Optionholder. The parties shall, and shall cause their representatives and affiliates to, reasonably cooperate to reduce or eliminate any amount required to be deducted and withheld pursuant to this Section 14(iv).

15. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Forum; Waiver of Trial by Jury.

(i) THIS OPTION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE LAWS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GOVERN UNDER ANY APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THEREOF. In any action between the parties arising out of or relating to this Option, each of the parties (a) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in and for New Castle County, Delaware, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from such court, and (c) agrees that it will not bring any such action in any court other than the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware in and for New Castle County, Delaware, or, if (and only if) such court finds it lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware, and appellate courts thereof, or, if (and only if) each of such Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware and such federal court finds it lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any state court within the State of Delaware. Service of process, summons, notice or document to any party’s address and in the manner set forth in Section 18 shall be effective service of process for any such action.

(ii) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS OPTION IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS OPTION OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS OPTION BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 15(ii).

Any waiver shall constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter described in such written agreement and shall in no way impair the rights of any party granting any waiver in any other respect or at any other time. The waiver by any of the parties of a breach of, or a default under, any of the provisions hereof, or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder, shall not be construed as a waiver of any other breach or default of a similar nature, or as a waiver of any of such provisions, rights or privileges hereunder. Except as expressly provided in this Option, the rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and none is exclusive of any other, or of any rights or remedies that any party may otherwise have at law or in equity.

18. Notices. Unless otherwise provided in this Option, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be dated and in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (i) when delivered, if delivered personally, or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, provided that such delivery is completed during normal business hours of the recipient, failing which such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the next Business Day, (ii) on the next Business Day if sent by overnight courier and delivered on such Business Day within ordinary business hours and, if not, the next Business Day following delivery; and (iii) when received, if received during normal business hours and, if not, the next Business Day after receipt, if delivered by e-mail or any means other than those specified above; provided that all notices to Grantor hereunder shall be sent (1) by email to the email address(es) of the Grantor specified below and (2) by one additional method specified in clause (i) or (ii) above. Such notices shall be delivered to the address set forth below, or to such other address as a party shall have furnished to the other party in accordance with this Section 18.
