2. Manner of Exercise.
(a) The Optionee may exercise this Stock Option only in the following manner: from time to
time on or prior to the Expiration Date of this Stock Option, the Optionee may give written notice
to the Administrator of his or her election to purchase some or all of the Option Shares
purchasable at the time of such notice. This notice shall specify the number of Option Shares to be
purchased.
Payment of the purchase price for the Option Shares may be made by one or more of the
following methods: (i) in cash, by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to the
Administrator; (ii) through the delivery (or attestation to the ownership) of shares of Stock that
have been purchased by the Optionee on the open market or that are beneficially owned by the
Optionee and are not then subject to any restrictions under any Company plan and that otherwise
satisfy any holding periods as may be required by the Administrator; (iii) by the Optionee
delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable
instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable
to the Company to pay the option purchase price, provided that in the event the Optionee chooses to
pay the option purchase price as so provided, the Optionee and the broker shall comply with such
procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Administrator
shall prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure; or (iv) a combination of (i), (ii) and
(iii) above. Payment instruments will be received subject to collection.
The transfer to the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the transfer agent of the
Option Shares will be contingent upon the Company’s receipt from the Optionee of full payment for
the Option Shares, as set forth above and any agreement, statement or other evidence that the
Company may require to satisfy itself that the issuance of Stock to be purchased pursuant to the
exercise of Stock Options under the Plan and any subsequent resale of the shares of Stock will be
in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In the event the Optionee chooses to pay the
purchase price by previously-owned shares of Stock through the attestation method, the number of
shares of Stock transferred to the Optionee upon the exercise of the Stock Option shall be net of
the shares attested to.
(b) The shares of Stock purchased upon exercise of this Stock Option shall be transferred to
the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the transfer agent upon compliance to the
satisfaction of the Administrator with all requirements under applicable laws or regulations in
connection with such issuance and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan. The determination
of the Administrator as to such compliance shall be final and binding on the Optionee. The Optionee
shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to,
any shares of Stock subject to this Stock Option unless and until this Stock Option shall have been
exercised pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company or the transfer agent shall have transferred
the shares to the Optionee, and the Optionee’s name shall have been entered as the stockholder of
record on the books of the Company. Thereupon, the Optionee shall have full voting, dividend and
other ownership rights with respect to such shares of Stock.
(c) The minimum number of shares with respect to which this Stock Option may be exercised at
any one time shall be 100 shares, unless the number of shares with respect to
athenahealth — form of incentive stock option agreement for employees
2
which this Stock Option is being exercised is the total number of shares subject to exercise under
this Stock Option at the time.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Plan, no portion of this Stock Option
shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date hereof.
3. Termination of Employment; Employment Status Change. If the Optionee’s employment by the
Company or a Subsidiary (as defined in the Plan) is terminated, the period within which to exercise
the Stock Option may be subject to earlier termination as set forth below.
(a) Termination Due to Death. If the Optionee’s employment terminates by reason of the
Optionee’s death, any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date may thereafter be
exercised, to the extent exercisable on such date, by the Optionee’s legal representative or
legatee for a period of 180 days from the date of death or until the Expiration Date, if earlier.
(b) Termination Due to Disability. If the Optionee’s employment terminates by reason of the
Optionee’s disability (as determined by the Administrator), any portion of this Stock Option
outstanding on such date may thereafter be exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of
termination, by the Optionee for a period of 180 days from the date of termination or until the
Expiration Date, if earlier. The death of the Optionee during the 180-day period provided in this
Section 3(b) shall extend such period for another 180-days from the date of death or until the
Expiration Date, if earlier.
(c) Termination for Cause. If the Optionee’s employment terminates for Cause, any portion of
this Stock Option outstanding on such date shall terminate immediately and be of no further force
and effect. For purposes hereof, “Cause” means any of the following: (i) dishonesty, embezzlement,
misappropriation of assets or property of the Company; (ii) gross negligence, misconduct, neglect
of duties, theft, fraud, or breach of fiduciary duty to the Company; (iii) violation of federal or
state securities laws; (iv) breach of an employment, consulting or other agreement with the
Company; or (v) the conviction of a felony, or any crime involving moral turpitude, including a
plea of guilty or nolo contendre.
(d) Other Termination. If the Optionee’s employment terminates for any reason other than the
Optionee’s death, the Optionee’s disability, or Cause, and unless otherwise determined by the
Administrator, any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date may be exercised, to the
extent exercisable on the date of termination, for a period of three months from the date of
termination or until the Expiration Date, if earlier. Any portion of this Stock Option that is not
exercisable on the date of termination shall terminate immediately and be of no further force or
effect.
(e) Employment Status Change. The exercisability of this Stock Option reflects Athena’s policy
that stock option awards accrue over time, and that such accruals are in consideration for
providing continued service to the Company during substantially all of each work week. Therefore,
this Stock Option will continue to vest under the above Exercisability s Schedule only if the
Optionee devotes at least eighty percent (80%) of the Optionee’s work schedule to service to the
Company. If at any time the Optionee’s employment status is changed
athenahealth — form of incentive stock option agreement for employees
3
to less than 80% time, then any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date may be
exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of change in employment status, for a period of
three months from the date of change in employment status or until the Expiration Date, if earlier.
Any portion of this Stock Option that is not exercisable on the date of change in employment status
shall terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect.
The Administrator’s determination of the reason for termination of the Optionee’s employment
shall be conclusive and binding on the Optionee and his or her representatives or legatees.
4. Incorporation of Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this
Stock Option shall be subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the Plan,
including the powers of the Administrator set forth in Section 2(b) of the Plan. Capitalized terms
in this Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless a different meaning is
specified herein.
5. Transferability. This Agreement is personal to the Optionee, is non-assignable and is not
transferable in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution. This Stock Option is exercisable, during the Optionee’s lifetime, only by
the Optionee, and thereafter, only by the Optionee’s legal representative or legatee.
6. Status of the Stock Option. This Stock Option is intended to qualify as an
“incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), but the Company does not represent or warrant that this Stock Option qualifies as such.
The Optionee should consult with his or her own tax advisors regarding the tax effects of this
Stock Option and the requirements necessary to obtain favorable income tax treatment under Section
422 of the Code, including, but not limited to, holding period requirements. To the extent any
portion of this Stock Option does not so qualify as an “incentive stock option,” such portion shall
be deemed to be a non-qualified stock option. If the Optionee intends to dispose or does dispose
(whether by sale, gift, transfer or otherwise) of any Option Shares within the one-year period
beginning on the date after the transfer of such shares to him or her, or within the two-year
period beginning on the day after the grant of this Stock Option, he or she will so notify the
Company within 30 days after such disposition.
7. Tax Withholding. The Optionee shall, not later than the date as of which the exercise of
this Stock Option becomes a taxable event for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company or
make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of any Federal, state, and local
taxes required by law to be withheld on account of such taxable event. The Optionee may elect to
have the minimum required tax withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or in part, by authorizing
the Company to withhold from shares of Stock to be issued.
8.
No Obligation to Continue Employment. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is obligated by or as a result of the Plan or this Agreement to continue the Optionee in
employment and neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall interfere in any way with the right of the
Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of the Optionee at any time.
