Pursue FDA Approval for Iluvien.
In the fourth
quarter of 2009 we will receive a month 24 readout from the FAME
Study. Based on an analysis of this readout we plan to pursue an
NDA filing with the FDA in the second quarter of 2010, followed
by registration filings in certain European countries and Canada.
Maximize the Commercial Success of Iluvien.
If
approved by the FDA, we intend to market and sell Iluvien to the
approximately 1,600 retinal specialists practicing in the
approximately 900 retina centers in the United States and Canada
and to seek a commercialization partner for sales and marketing
activities outside North America.
Assess the Effectiveness of Iluvien for Additional Retinal
Diseases.
Iluvien is being studied in three
Phase 2 clinical trials with retinal specialists to assess
its safety and efficacy in the treatment of dry AMD, wet AMD and
RVO.
Develop Our Existing Ophthalmic Product
Pipeline.
We have acquired exclusive, worldwide
licenses of rights under patent applications for two classes of
NADPH oxidase inhibitors from Emory University and are
evaluating the use of these compounds in the treatment of dry
AMD. We plan to evaluate the use of NADPH oxidase inhibitors in
the treatment of other diseases of the eye, including wet AMD
and diabetic retinopathy.
Expand Our Ophthalmic Product Pipeline.
We
believe there are further unmet needs in the treatment of
ophthalmic diseases. Toward that end, we intend to leverage
managements expertise and its broad network of
relationships in continuing to evaluate in-licensing and
acquisition opportunities for compounds and technologies with
applications in diseases affecting the eye.

Table of Contents
We are dependent on the success of our product candidates and
specifically on the success of Iluvien, our only product
candidate currently in clinical development;
We face heavy government regulation, and approval of Iluvien and
our other product candidates from the FDA and from similar
entities in other countries is uncertain;
Iluvien utilizes FA, a non-proprietary corticosteroid that has
demonstrated undesirable side effects in the eye, and the
success of Iluvien will depend on our ability to achieve an
appropriate relationship between the benefits of FAs
efficacy and the risk of side-effects;
We are dependent upon our ability, and the ability of our
licensors, to obtain and maintain protection for the
intellectual property incorporated into our products and the
value of our technology and products will be adversely affected
if we or our licensors are unable to obtain or maintain such
protection; and
We do not expect to generate revenues from our product
candidates until the first quarter of 2011 and although we
anticipate that the proceeds from this offering will fund our
operations through the projected commercialization of Iluvien as
early as the first quarter of 2011, we cannot be sure that this
offering will be completed, that Iluvien will be approved by the
FDA in the fourth quarter of 2010 or that, if approved, future
sales of Iluvien will generate revenues sufficient to fund our
operations beyond the first quarter of 2011, or ever.

our collaboration agreements are expected to be for fixed terms
and subject to termination under various circumstances,
including, in many cases, on short notice without cause;
we expect to be required in our collaboration agreements not to
conduct specified types of research and development in the field
that is the subject of the collaboration. These agreements may
have the effect of limiting the areas of research and
development that we may pursue, either alone or in cooperation
with third-parties;
our collaborators may develop and commercialize, either alone or
with others, products and services that are similar to or
competitive with our products which are the subject of their
collaboration with us; and
our collaborators may change the focus of their development and
commercialization efforts. In recent years there have been a
significant number of mergers and consolidations in the
pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, some of which have
resulted in the participant companies reevaluating and shifting
the focus of their business following the completion of these
transactions. The ability of our products to reach their
potential could be limited if any of our future collaborators
decreases or fails to increase spending relating to such
products.

On March 14, 2008, we completed the modification of our
agreement with pSivida that resulted in our acquisition of
rights to an incremental 30% of the future profits of Iluvien,
increasing our total ownership to 80% of the future profits;
On March 17, 2008, we entered into a Series C
preferred stock purchase agreement with certain investors. Under
the agreement, the investors agreed to purchase up to
19,744,246 shares of our Series C preferred stock at a
purchase price of $1.52 per share. The agreement contemplated
the purchase of such shares in two tranches. The first sale of
shares was completed on March 17, 2008 when we issued
18,715,461 shares. We completed the second sale of the
remaining 1,028,785 shares on April 23, 2008. The
proceeds of this offering have been and will be used primarily
to fund the initial payments associated with our amended and
restated agreement with pSivida and our incremental development
costs associated with our assumption of all financial
responsibility for the remaining development of Iluvien.
On April 25, 2008, we had an organizational meeting with a
selected group of investment bankers to initiate a process for
the initial public offering of our common stock. We filed a
registration statement with respect to this offering on
July 1, 2008, and subsequently amended that registration
statement on August 19, 2008.
In the fall of 2008 the volatility of the public capital markets
increased significantly and limited our ability to complete the
initial public offering of our common stock contemplated in our
July 1, 2008 registration filing, raise additional private
capital or complete a sale of our company. We ceased efforts
towards an initial public offering in the fourth quarter of 2008.

On August 25, 2009, we entered into a
Series C-1
preferred stock and warrant purchase agreement with certain
investors. Under the agreement, the investors agreed to purchase
up to 3,290,708 shares of our
Series C-1
preferred stock at a purchase price of $1.52 per share and
warrants to purchase up to an additional 6,581,416 shares
of our
Series C-1
preferred stock at an exercise price per share of $1.52. The
sale of the shares of
Series C-1
preferred stock was completed on August 25, 2009. The
proceeds of this offering will be used primarily to fund the
continuation of our FAME Study and prepare for filing an NDA for
Iluvien.
In June 2008, September 2008 and September 2009, we received
interim readouts from our open-label Phase 2 human
pharmacokinetic clinical trial (PK Study) that we believe
support that the sub-microgram levels of FA delivered by Iluvien
will provide visual acuity improvements while reducing the risk
of ocular side effects commonly associated with the use of
corticosteroids. See Business
Iluvien Iluvien is Positioned to Reduce Side
Effects for additional information on ocular side effects
commonly associated with the use of corticosteroids.
On September 30, 2009, we had an organizational meeting
with a selected group of investment bankers to reinitiate a
process for the initial public offering of our common stock.
The month 24 readout from our FAME Study in advance of this
offering that we believe will further reduce the perceived
development and regulatory risk associated with Iluvien for a
potential investor. In discussions with our underwriters related
to the initial public offering of our common stock they have
indicated that a higher valuation of our common stock will
result if the month 24 readout from our FAME Study is
favorable.

Pursue FDA Approval for Iluvien.
We are
currently conducting the FAME Study involving 956 patients in
sites across the United States, Canada, Europe and India to
assess the efficacy and safety of Iluvien in the treatment of
DME. We will receive a month 24 readout from the FAME Study in
the fourth quarter of 2009 and this readout will form the basis
of our NDA submission with the FDA in the second quarter of
2010, followed by registration filings in certain European
countries and Canada.
Maximize the Commercial Success of Iluvien.
If
approved by the FDA, we intend to capitalize on our
managements past experience and expertise in marketing
eye-care products including the launch and management of
Visudyne (Novartis Ophthalmics) by marketing and selling Iluvien
to the approximately 1,600 retinal specialists practicing
in the approximately 900 retina centers in the United
States and Canada. We intend to seek a commercialization partner
for sales and marketing activities outside North America.
Assess the Effectiveness of Iluvien for Additional Retinal
Diseases.
We believe that Iluvien has the
potential to address additional retinal diseases including,
among others, dry AMD, wet AMD and RVO. Iluvien is being studied
in three Phase 2 clinical trials with retinal specialists
to assess the safety and efficacy of Iluvien for the treatment
of these diseases of the eye.
Develop Our Existing Ophthalmic Product
Pipeline.
We have acquired exclusive, worldwide
licenses of rights under patent applications for two classes of
NADPH oxidase inhibitors from Emory University. We believe that
the management of oxidative stress is an important strategy in
managing the development and progression of diseases of the eye,
and we believe that NADPH oxidase inhibitors have the potential
to manage oxidative stress. Our initial focus is on the use of
NADPH oxidase inhibitors in the treatment of dry AMD. We plan to
evaluate the use of NADPH oxidase inhibitors in the treatment of
other diseases of the eye, including wet AMD and diabetic
retinopathy.
Expand Our Ophthalmic Product Pipeline.
We
believe there are further unmet needs in the treatment of
ophthalmic diseases. Toward that end, we intend to leverage
managements expertise and its broad network of
relationships in continuing to evaluate in-licensing and
acquisition opportunities for compounds and technologies with
applications in diseases affecting the eye.

Iluvien delivers FA.
The active pharmaceutical
ingredient in Iluvien is FA. In two multi-center, randomized
clinical studies using another FA delivery system, the results
of which have been presented at major scientific meetings, FA
has demonstrated statistically significant improvement in visual
acuity in the treatment of DME compared to laser
photocoagulation, the current standard of care.
Iluvien delivers sustained sub-microgram levels of a steroid
to the eye.
In our clinical trials we are
studying two doses of Iluvien (a high-dose with an initial
release of approximately 0.45µg per day and a low-dose with
an initial release of approximately 0.23µg per day) to
determine the lowest dose possible that will provide efficacy
for the treatment of DME. We believe that the dosage levels of
Iluvien will provide lower exposure to corticosteroids than
other intraocular dosage forms currently available.
Iluvien is expected to deliver a therapeutic effect for up to
36 months.
In vitro release kinetics have
shown that Iluvien provides sustained delivery of sub-microgram
levels of FA over time. Based on these release kinetics, we
expect that the high dose of Iluvien will provide sustained
therapy for up to 24 months and the low dose of Iluvien
will provide sustained therapy for up to 36 months, with
actual therapeutic effect to be determined in clinical trials.
Iluviens placement utilizes the eyes natural
fluid dynamics.
There are two natural currents of
fluid within the eye; one to the front of the eye and the other
to the back of the eye, or retina. We believe that
Iluviens delivery of sustained sub-microgram levels of FA
and insertion into the back of the eye, a position that we
believe optimizes delivery of FA to the retina by utilizing
these natural currents, will maximize efficacy and minimize
possible side effects.
Iluvien is inserted using a 25-gauge
needle.
Needle gauge determines the size of the
wound that is created. Iluvien is inserted into the eye using a
25-gauge needle, which results in a wound that is small enough
to seal itself after the needle is removed thus eliminating the
need for additional intervention. Using a larger needle would
require a more complicated insertion procedure to create a
self-sealing wound.

Dry AMD.
Dry AMD patients account for 90% of
AMD patients, with the greatest unmet need among these patients
being a treatment for geographic atrophy (GA) for which there
are currently no treatments available. Pre-clinical studies in
two established rat models of retinal degeneration reported at
the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology
meetings in 2006, 2007 and 2008, described the efficacious
effects of a miniaturized version of Iluvien in two animal
models of retinal degeneration. Based on these results, we began
enrollment of a pilot study in December 2008 to assess the
safety and efficacy of Iluvien in patients with bilateral GA
secondary to AMD. Our Phase 2 study (the MAP GA Trial) is
comparing the two doses of Iluvien to a sham injection in
patients with bilateral GA secondary to AMD. The change from
baseline in size of GA will be assessed over time.
Wet AMD.
The size of the wet AMD market was
$2 billion in 2008 according to visiongain, an independent
competitive intelligence organization. We believe Iluvien will
be synergistic with the market leading anti-VEGF therapies in
the treatment of wet AMD. Anti-VEGFs require persistent dosing
to maintain a therapeutic effect which is a burden on both the
patient and the physician. Given that corticosteroids have been
shown to suppress the production of VEGF, a Phase 2 investigator
sponsored study (the MAP Trial) is assessing the safety and
efficacy of Iluvien in conjunction with Lucentis in patients
with wet AMD. Given that corticosteroids have been shown to
suppress the production of VEGF, a Phase 2 investigator
sponsored study (the MAP Trial) is assessing the safety and
efficacy of Iluvien in conjunction with Lucentis in patients
with wet AMD. Patients will be enrolled who have been treated
with Lucentis for at least six months and whose visual
acuity has plateaued. At baseline, subjects will receive either
the high-dose or the low-dose of Iluvien and an injection of
Lucentis. Subjects will receive additional Lucentis injections
during the study only if subretinal or intraretinal fluid
persists. Outcome measures will include the change from baseline
visual acuity at six months, and mean number of injections of
Lucentis over the six-month study period versus the six months
prior to study entry.
Macular edema associated with non-ischemic
RVO.
Over one million people suffer from RVO
in the United States and there were no approved products until
September 2009 when Allergan introduced the Ozurdex (a three to
five month dexamethasone intravitreal implant) for macular edema
following branch or central retinal vein occlusion. Retinal
specialists have been using intravitreal injections of the
corticosteroid triamcinolone acetonide on an off-label basis to
treat non-ischemic RVO. The FDA approval of Ozurdex provides
additional evidence that lower levels of a steroid work
effectively for RVO. In September 2009, we began enrollment for
a Phase 2 study (the FAVOR Study) to assess the safety and
efficacy of Iluvien in patients with macular edema secondary to
RVO. The FAVOR Study is comparing the two doses of Iluvien in
patients with macular edema secondary to RVO.

available to the underwriters;
the history of and the prospects for the industry in which we
compete;
the ability of our management;
the prospects for our future earnings;
the present state of our development and our current financial
condition;
the recent market prices of, and the demand for, publicly traded
common stock of generally comparable companies; and
the general condition of the securities markets at the time of
the offering.
Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying
security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a
specified maximum.
Over-allotment involves sales by the underwriters of shares in
excess of the number of shares the underwriters are obligated to
purchase, which creates a syndicate short position. The short
position may be either a covered short position or a naked short
position. In a covered short position, the number of shares
over-allotted by the underwriters is not greater than the number
of shares that they may purchase in the over-allotment option.
In a naked short position, the number of shares involved is
greater than the number of shares in the over-allotment option.
The underwriters may close out any covered short position by
either exercising their over-allotment option
and/or
purchasing shares in the open market.
Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the common
stock in the open market after the distribution has been
completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. In
determining the source of shares to close out the short
position, the underwriters will consider, among other things,
the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as
compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through
the over-allotment option. If the underwriters sell more shares
than could be covered by the over-allotment option, a naked
short position, the position can only be closed out by buying
shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely
to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there could
be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open
market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who
purchase in the offering.

Table of Contents
Penalty bids permit the representatives to reclaim a selling
concession from a syndicate member when the common stock
originally sold by the syndicate member is purchased in a
stabilizing or syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate
short positions.
In passive market making, market makers in the common stock who
are underwriters or prospective underwriters may, subject to
limitations, make bids for or purchases of our common stock
until the time, if any, at which a stabilizing bid is made.

PREFERRED
STOCK

Table of Contents
Holders of the preferred stock are entitled to the number of
votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which
such shares of preferred stock could then be converted and have
voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers
of the common stock. In addition, the holders of the preferred
stock have the right, voting separately from common
stockholders, to elect five out of seven members of the
Companys Board of Directors. The remaining two members are
elected by both the common and preferred stockholders.
Dividends are cumulative and accrue on a daily basis at the rate
of 8% per annum beginning on the date of issuance and based on
the original issue price, $1.19 per share for the Series A
preferred stock, $1.31 per share for the Series B preferred
stock, and $1.52 per share for the Series C and
Series C-1 preferred stock, as adjusted for any stock
dividend, stock split, combination, or other event involving the
preferred stock. Dividends will accrue, whether or not declared,
annually and will be due and payable when and if declared by the
Board of Directors, upon a liquidating event, as defined, upon
redemption of the preferred stock, as defined, or on the date
that the preferred stock is otherwise acquired by the Company.
Accumulated, accrued, and unpaid dividends were:

Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company,
the preferred stockholders are entitled to a liquidation
preference payment equal to (i) the sum of the liquidation
value ($1.19 per share for the Series A preferred stock,
$1.31 per share for the Series B preferred stock and $1.52
per share for the Series C and
Series C-1
preferred stock) plus all accumulated, accrued, and unpaid
dividends and (ii) the pro rata share of any remaining
amounts such holder would have been entitled to receive had such
holders

Each share is convertible, at the option of the holder, into one
share of common stock (subject to adjustments for events of
dilution). In addition, all shares of preferred stock are
automatically converted upon the completion of a public offering
of common shares yielding proceeds of at least $50,000,000 and a
price of at least five times the original issue price of the
Series A preferred stock of $1.19 per share (subject to
adjustments for events of dilution).
At any time subsequent to March 17, 2013, the holders of a
majority of the preferred stock may require the Company to
redeem all or any portion of the preferred stock. If the
preferred stock is redeemed, the redemption will occur in equal
installments over a three-year period. The price paid by the
Company to redeem the shares would be the greater of
(i) the original issue price, plus all accumulated,
accrued, and unpaid dividends, and (ii) the fair market
value of the preferred stock being redeemed at the time of the
redemption.
The holders of the preferred stock have the right but not the
obligation to participate proportionately in certain types of
future financings.

The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the
short-term maturities of the cash and cash equivalents.

Table of Contents
(2)
The fair value of the beneficial conversion feature of preferred
stock (see note 9) is established using a probability
weighted expected return method (PWERM) and Black Scholes
valuation model. Significant inputs to the valuation include:
probability of various scenarios occurring, including the
potential for an initial public offering, sale of the Company or
its assets, decision to remain a private company or liquidation
of the Company;
fair value of common stock as determined under each of the
scenarios under the PWERM, adjusted for a lack of control and
lack of marketability discount;
volatility estimated as an average of volatilities of publicly
traded companies deemed similar to the Company in terms of
product composition, stage of lifecycle, capitalization, and
scope of operations;
exercise price and weighted-average expected life estimated
based on the underlying and the expected remaining life of the
underlying instrument;
risk-free interest rate estimated as the daily treasury yield
for the period that most closely approximates the
weighted-average expected life as the valuation date as
published by the United States Department of Treasury.
The method described above may produce a fair value calculation
that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective
of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes
its valuation methods are appropriate, the use of different
methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of
certain financial instruments could result in a different fair
value measurement at the reporting date.

(a) | the date which includes the closing of the transaction which makes a Change in Control effective if the Change in Control is made effective through a transaction which has a closing or | ||
(b) | the date on which there is a Change in Control of a nature that would be required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A for a proxy statement filed under the 1934 Act if the 1934 Act were applicable |
and if the Change in Control is made effective other than through a transaction which has a closing. |
(a) | any person (as that term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the 1934 Act), is or becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act) directly or indirectly, of securities representing 20% or more of the combined voting power for election of directors of the then outstanding securities of the Company or any successor to the Company; | ||
(b) | during any period of two consecutive years or less, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board cease, for any reason, to constitute at least a majority of the Board, unless the election or nomination for election of each new director was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who were directors at the beginning of the period; | ||
(c) | the shareholders of the Company approve any reorganization, merger, consolidation or share exchange as a result of which the common stock of the Company shall be changed, converted or exchanged into or for securities of another corporation (other than a merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) or any dissolution or liquidation of the |

(a) | Exercise Period . 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 Option Certificate, but no Option Certificate shall make an Option exercisable on or after the earlier of |
(1) | the date which is the fifth anniversary of the date the Option is granted, if the Option is an ISO and the Eligible Employee is a Ten Percent Shareholder on the date the Option is granted, or |
-10-
(2) | the date which is the tenth anniversary of the date the Option is granted, if the Option is (a) a Non-ISO or (b) an ISO which is granted to an Eligible Employee who is not a Ten Percent Shareholder on the date the Option is granted. |
(b) | Termination of Status as Eligible Employee or Director . Subject to § 7.5(a), an Option Certificate may provide for the exercise of an Option after an Eligible Employees or a Directors status as such has terminated for any reason whatsoever, including death or disability. |
(a) | Stock Appreciation Right Certificate . If a Stock Appreciation Right is granted independent of an Option, such Stock Appreciation Right shall be evidenced by a Stock Appreciation Right Certificate, and such certificate shall set forth the number of shares of Stock on which the Eligible Employees or Directors right to appreciation shall be based and the SAR |
-11-
Value of each share of Stock. Such SAR Value shall be no less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date that the Stock Appreciation Right is granted. The Stock Appreciation Right Certificate shall set forth such other terms and conditions for the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right as the Committee deems appropriate under the circumstances, but no Stock Appreciation Right Certificate shall make a Stock Appreciation Right exercisable on or after the date which is the tenth anniversary of the date such Stock Appreciation Right is granted. | |||
(b) | Option Certificate . If a Stock Appreciation Right is granted together with an Option, such Stock Appreciation Right shall be evidenced by an Option Certificate, the number of shares of Stock on which the Eligible Employees or Directors right to appreciation shall be based shall be the same as the number of shares of Stock subject to the related Option, and the SAR Value for each such share of Stock shall be no less than the Option Price under the related Option. Each such Option Certificate shall provide that the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right with respect to any share of Stock shall cancel the Eligible Employees or Directors right to exercise his or her Option with respect to such share and, conversely, that the exercise of the Option with respect to any share of Stock shall cancel the Eligible Employees or Directors right to exercise his or her Stock Appreciation Right with respect to such share. A Stock Appreciation Right which is granted as part of an Option shall be exercisable only while the related Option is exercisable. The Option |
-12-
Certificate shall set forth such other terms and conditions for the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right as the Committee deems appropriate under the circumstances. |
-13-
(a) | Conditions to Issuance of Stock . The Committee acting in its absolute discretion may make the issuance of Stock under a Stock Grant subject to the satisfaction of one, or more than one, condition which the Committee deems appropriate under the circumstances for Eligible Employees or Directors generally or for an Eligible Employee or a Director in particular, and the related Stock Grant Certificate shall set forth each such condition and the deadline for satisfying each such condition. Stock subject to a Stock Grant shall be issued in the name of an Eligible Employee or Director only after each such condition, if any, has been timely satisfied, and any Stock which is so issued shall be held by the Company pending the satisfaction of the forfeiture conditions, if any, under § 9.2(b) for the related Stock Grant. | ||
(b) | Conditions on Forfeiture of Stock or Cash Payment . The Committee acting in its absolute discretion may make any cash payment due under a Stock Unit Grant or Stock issued in the name of an Eligible Employee or Director under a Stock Grant non-forfeitable subject to the satisfaction of one, or more than one, objective employment, performance or other condition that the Committee acting in its absolute discretion deems appropriate under the circumstances for Eligible Employees or Directors generally or for an Eligible Employee or a Director in particular, and the related Stock Grant Certificate shall set forth each such condition, if any, and the deadline, if any, for satisfying each such condition. An Eligible |
-14-
Employees or a Directors non-forfeitable interest in the shares of Stock underlying a Stock Grant or the cash payable under a Stock Unit Grant shall depend on the extent to which he or she timely satisfies each such condition. Each share of Stock underlying a Stock Grant shall not be available under § 3 after such grant is effective until such time, if any, as such share thereafter is forfeited as a result of a failure to timely satisfy a forfeiture condition, in which event such share of Stock shall again become available under § 3 as of the date of such forfeiture. Finally, the Company shall have the right to require an Eligible Employee or Director to sign an irrevocable stock power in favor of the Company with respect to forfeitable shares of Stock issued under this § 9.2(b) in order for the Company to effect a forfeiture in accordance with this § 9.2(b). |
(a) | Cash Dividends . Except as otherwise set forth in a Stock Grant, if a dividend is paid in cash on a share of Stock after such Stock has been issued under a Stock Grant but before the first date that an Eligible Employees or a Directors interest in such Stock (1) is forfeited completely or (2) becomes completely non-forfeitable, the Company shall pay such cash dividend directly to such Eligible Employee or Director. | ||
(b) | Stock Dividends . If a dividend is paid on a share of Stock in Stock after such Stock has been issued under a Stock Grant but before the first date that an Eligible Employees or a Directors interest in such Stock (1) is forfeited completely or (2) becomes completely non-forfeitable, the |
-15-
Company shall hold such dividend Stock subject to the same conditions under § 9.2(b) as the related Stock Grant. | |||
(c) | Other . If a dividend (other than a dividend described in § 9.3(a) or § 9.3(b)) is paid with respect to a share of Stock after such Stock has been issued under a Stock Grant but before the first date that an Eligible Employees or a Directors interest in such Stock (1) is forfeited completely or (2) becomes completely non-forfeitable, the Company shall distribute or hold such dividend in accordance with such rules as the Committee shall adopt with respect to each such dividend. | ||
(d) | Voting . Except as otherwise set forth in a Stock Grant, an Eligible Employee or a Director shall have the right to vote the Stock issued under his or her Stock Grant during the period which comes after such Stock has been issued under a Stock Grant but before the first date that an Eligible Employees or Directors interest in such Stock (1) is forfeited completely or (2) becomes completely non-forfeitable. | ||
(e) | General Creditor Status . An Eligible Employee and a Director to whom a Stock Unit grant is made shall be no more than a general and unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to any cash payable under such Stock Unit Grant. |

(1) | the tenth anniversary of the effective date of this Plan (as determined under § 4), in which event this Plan otherwise thereafter shall continue in effect until all outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights have been exercised in full or no longer are exercisable and all Stock issued under any Stock Grants under this Plan have been forfeited or have become non-forfeitable, or | ||
(2) | the date on which all of the Stock reserved under § 3 has (as a result of the exercise of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan or the satisfaction of the forfeiture conditions, if any, on Stock Grants) been issued or no longer is |

1. | Initial stock option grant for pre-IPO directors : The Compensation Committee will grant to each non-employee director who first became a member of the Board of Directors before the IPO date, and who will continue serving thereafter, an option to purchase 7,500 shares of the Companys Common Stock. The grant will be made on, or as soon as reasonably practicable after, the IPO date. The exercise price per share will be equal to the fair market value per share of the Companys Common Stock on the date of grant. The option will become exercisable with respect to 25% of the shares after 12 months of continuous service as a director and with respect to an additional 6.25% of the shares after each additional three-month period of continuous service thereafter. The option will become fully exercisable in the event that the Company is subject to a change in control or in the event of the directors death. | ||
2. | Initial stock option grant for post-IPO directors : The Compensation Committee will grant to each non-employee director who first becomes a member of the Board of Directors on or after the IPO date an option to purchase 20,000 shares of the Companys Common Stock. The grant will be made on, or as soon as reasonably practicable, after the date of his or her election. The exercise price per share will be equal to the fair market value per share of the Companys Common Stock on the date of grant. The option will become exercisable with respect to 25% of the shares after 12 months of continuous service as a director and with respect to an additional 6.25% of the shares after each additional three-month period of continuous service thereafter. The option will become fully |
exercisable in the event that the Company is subject to a change in control or in the event of the directors death. | |||
3. | Annual stock option grants . In each year beginning in 2010, the Compensation Committee will grant to each non-employee director who will continue serving on the Board after the regular annual meeting of the Companys stockholders an option to purchase 7,500 shares of the Companys Common Stock. The grant will be made on, or as soon as reasonably practicable after, the date of the annual meeting. The exercise price per share will be equal to the fair market value per share of the Companys Common Stock on the date of grant. The option will be fully exercisable at any time after the date of grant. The foregoing notwithstanding, a new director who has received the 20,000-share grant under Paragraph 2 above will not in the same calendar year receive a 7,500-share grant under this Paragraph 3. | ||
4. | Adjustments . In the event of a subdivision of the outstanding shares, a declaration of a dividend payable in shares or a combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of shares, a corresponding adjustment will automatically be made in the share numbers described above. In the event of a declaration of an extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than shares in an amount that has a material effect on the price of shares, a recapitalization, a spin-off or a similar occurrence, the Compensation Committee will make such adjustments as it, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate in the share numbers described above. |
The reasonable expenses incurred by directors in connection with attendance at Board or committee meetings will be reimbursed upon submission of appropriate substantiation. |
