	(b)		The Registrant’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended August 2, 2009, as amended on Form 10-Q/A, and the Registrant’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended November 1, 2009, filed with the Commission on September 11, 2009, October 7, 2009 and December 10, 2009, respectively;

	(d)		The Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with the Commission on November 8, 1999 pursuant to Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act, in which there is described the terms, rights and provisions applicable to the Registrant’s Common Stock; and

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Section 102(b) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware authorizes a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to a corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach or alleged breach of the director’s “duty of care.” While this statute does not change a director’s duty of care, it enables corporations to limit available relief to equitable remedies such as injunction or rescission. The statute has no effect on a director’s duty of loyalty or liability for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, illegal payment of dividends or stock redemptions or repurchases, or for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit. As permitted by the statute, the Registrant has adopted provisions in its Certificate of Incorporation which eliminate to the fullest extent permissible under Delaware law the personal liability of its directors to the Registrant and its stockholders for monetary damages for breach or alleged breach of their duty of care.

Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware permits indemnification of officers, directors and other corporate agents under certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations. The Registrant’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents to the full extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under such law. In addition, with the approval of the Board of Directors and the stockholders, the Registrant has entered into separate indemnification agreements with its directors, officers and certain employees which require the Registrant, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities which may arise by reason of their status or service (other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature) and to obtain directors’ and officers’ insurance, if available on reasonable terms.

Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides for indemnification in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify such individuals, under certain circumstances, for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act.

The Registrant has obtained liability insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed

Item 9. Undertakings

A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement and (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those clauses is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement; (2) that for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the Registrant’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan and 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6 or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

We consent to your filing this letter as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. In giving the opinion set forth in this letter, we do not hereby admit that we are acting within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.

This opinion letter is rendered as of the date first written above and we disclaim any obligation to advise you of facts, circumstances, events or developments which hereafter may be brought to our attention and which may alter, affect or modify the opinion expressed herein. Our opinion is expressly limited to the matters set forth above and we render no opinion, whether by implication or otherwise, as to any other matters relating to the Company, the Plans or the shares registered on this S-8 registration statement.

Very truly yours,

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 twenty-one million (21,000,000), cumulatively increased on May 1, 2001 and each May 1 thereafter by a number of shares (the “ Annual Increase ” ) equal to five percent (5%) of the number of shares of Stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding April 30, and shall consist of authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Stock or any combination thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as adjusted pursuant to Section 4.2, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options (the “ ISO Share Limit ” ) shall not exceed twenty-one million (21,000,000), cumulatively increased on May 1, 2001 and each May 1 thereafter until and including May 1, 2008 by that portion of the Annual Increase effective on such date which does not exceed 7,500,000 shares . Shares of Stock subject to outstanding Awards made under the Plan shall be available for subsequent issuance under the Plan to the extent (i) those Awards expire or terminate for any reason prior to the issuance of the shares of Stock subject to those Awards or (ii) the awards are cancelled in accordance with the cancellation-regrant provisions of Section 8. Unvested shares issued under the Plan and subsequently cancelled or repurchased by the Company at the original exercise or issue price paid per share pursuant to the Company’s repurchase rights under the Plan shall be added back to the number of shares of Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan and shall accordingly be available for subsequent reissuance under the Plan. In addition, should the exercise price of an Option under the Plan be paid with shares of Stock, the authorized reserve of Stock under the Plan shall be reduced only by the net number of shares issued under the exercised Option. Should shares of Stock otherwise issuable under the Plan be withheld by the Company in satisfaction of the withholding taxes incurred in connection with the exercise of an Option or stock appreciation right or the issuance of fully-vested shares, the number of shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced only by the net number of shares issued under the exercised Option or stock appreciation right or the net number of fully-vested shares issued under the Plan. Such withholding shall in effect constitute a cash bonus under the Plan, payable directly to the applicable taxing authorities on behalf of the individual concerned, in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the withheld shares, and shall not be treated as an issuance and immediate repurchase of those shares.

4.2 Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure . In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, appropriate adjustments shall be (i) the maximum number and/or class of securities issuable under the Plan, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of securities which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options, (iii) the maximum number and/or class of securities for which any one person may be granted Options, stand-alone stock appreciation rights, direct stock issuances and other stock-based awards under the Plan per fiscal year, (iv) the number and/or class of securities and the exercise or base price per share in effect under each outstanding Option or stock appreciation right under the Plan and (v) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding

restricted stock unit or other stock-based award under the Plan and the consideration (if any) payable per share thereunder. If a majority of the shares which are of the same class as the shares that are subject to outstanding Awards are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event, as defined in Section 10.1) shares of another corporation (the “ New Shares ” ), the Board may unilaterally amend the outstanding Awards to provide that New Shares will be issued upon the exercise or vesting of the Awards. In the event of any such amendment, the number of shares subject to, and the purchase price per share of, the outstanding Awards 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.

4.3 Section 162(m) Grant Limit. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2, no Employee shall be granted within any fiscal year of the Company one or more Options, stand-alone stock appreciation rights, direct stock issuances (whether vested or unvested) and other stock-based awards which in the aggregate are for more than twelve million (12,000,000) shares.

5. Eligibility .

Persons Eligible for Awards . Awards may be granted only to Employees, Consultants, and Directors. Eligible persons may be granted more than one (1) Award.

6. Terms and Conditions of Options .

Options shall be evidenced by Option Agreements specifying the number of shares of Stock covered thereby, in such form as the Board shall from time to time establish . 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 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.

6.2 Exercise Price . The exercise price for each Option shall be established in the discretion of the Board; 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 (whether an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option) may be granted with an exercise price lower than the minimum exercise price set

forth above if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner qualifying under the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code.

6.3 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 Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years after the effective date of grant of such Option and (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. 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.

6.4 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 (as determined by the Company without regard to any restrictions on transferability applicable to such stock by reason of federal or state securities laws or agreements with an underwriter for the Company) on the Option exercise date 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) by such other consideration as may be approved by the Board from time to time to the extent permitted by applicable law, or (v) 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 6.9, 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 (or such other period necessary to award a charge to the Company’s earnings for financial reporting purposes) 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.

6.5 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), the portions of such options which exceed such amount shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. To the extent the Optionee holds two (2) or more options designated as Incentive Stock Options which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, then for purposes of this Section 6.5, such options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted except to the extent otherwise provided under applicable law or regulation, 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 6.5, 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 6.5, 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.

6.6 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.

6.7 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 6.7 and thereafter shall terminate:

(i) Disability. If the Optionee’s Service with the Participating Company Group 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 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 with the Participating Company Group 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 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 thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time as determined by the Board, in its discretion) after the Optionee’s termination of Service.

(iii) Termination After Change in Control. The Board may, in its discretion, provide in any Option Agreement that if the Optionee’s Service with the Participating Company Group ceases as a result of “Termination After Change in Control” (as defined in such Option Agreement), then (1) 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 six (6) 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, and (2) the exercisability and vesting of the Option and any shares acquired upon the exercise thereof shall be accelerated effective as of the date on which the Optionee’s Service terminated to such extent, if any, as shall have been determined by the Board, in its discretion, and set forth in the Option Agreement

(iv) Other Termination of Service. If the Optionee’s Service with the Participating Company Group terminates for any reason, except Disability, death or Termination After Change in Control, 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 sixty (60) days (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, if the exercise of an Option within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 6.7(a) is prevented by the provisions of Section 12 below, the Option shall remain exercisable until thirty (30) days (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 6.7(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.

6.8 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 the applicable limitations, if any, described in the General Instructions to the Form S-8 Registration Statement under the Securities Act.

6.9 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 appropriate form of Option Agreement approved by the Board concurrently with its adoption of the Plan and as amended from time to time.

6.10 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 Section 6.9 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.

7. Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights.

7.1 Types . Two types of stock appreciation rights shall be authorized for issuance under this Section 7: (i) tandem stock appreciation rights (“Tandem Rights”) and (ii) stand-alone stock appreciation rights (“Stand-alone Rights”).

7.2 . Tandem Rights . The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and exercise of Tandem Rights:

(a) One or more Optionees may be granted a Tandem Right, exercisable upon such terms and conditions as the Board may establish, to elect between the exercise of the underlying stock option for shares of Stock or the surrender of that option in exchange for a distribution from the Company in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value (on the option surrender date) of the number of shares in which the Optionee is at the time vested under the surrendered option (or surrendered portion thereof) over (ii) the aggregate exercise price payable for such vested shares.

(b) No such option surrender shall be effective unless it is approved by the Board, either at the time of the actual option surrender or at any earlier time. If the surrender

is so approved, then the distribution to which the Optionee shall accordingly become entitled under this Section 7.2 may be made in shares of Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the option surrender date, in cash, or partly in shares and partly in cash, as the Board shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate.

(c) If the surrender of an option is not approved by the Plan Administrator, then the Optionee shall retain whatever rights the Optionee had under the surrendered option (or surrendered portion thereof) on the option surrender date and may exercise such rights at any time prior to the later of (i) five (5) business days after the receipt of the rejection notice or (ii) the last day on which the option is otherwise exercisable in accordance with the terms of the instrument evidencing such option, but in no event may such rights be exercised more than ten (10) years after the date of the option grant.

7.3 Stand-Alone Rights . The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and exercise of Stand-alone Rights:

(a) One or more individuals eligible to participate in the Plan may be granted a Stand-alone Right not tied to any underlying Option. The Stand-alone Right shall relate to a specified number of shares of Stock and shall be exercisable upon such terms and conditions as the Board may establish. In no event, however, may the Stand-alone Right have a maximum term in excess of ten (10) years measured from the grant date. Upon exercise of the Stand-alone Right, the holder shall be entitled to receive a distribution from the Company in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (on the exercise date) of the shares of Stock underlying the exercised right over (ii) the aggregate base price in effect for those shares.

(b) The number of shares of Stock underlying each Stand-alone Right and the base price in effect for those shares shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion at the time the Stand-alone Right is granted.

(d) The distribution with respect to an exercised Stand-alone Right may be made in shares of Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the exercise date, in cash, or partly in shares and partly in cash, as the Board shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate.

(e) The holder of a Stand-alone Right shall have no shareholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the Stand-alone Right unless and until such person shall have exercised the Stand-alone Right and become a holder of record of shares of Stock issued upon the exercise of such Stand-alone Right.

7.4 Post-Service Exercise . The provisions governing the exercise of Tandem and Stand-alone Rights following the cessation of the recipient’s Service shall be substantially the same as those set forth in Section 6.7 for the Options granted under the Plan.

8. Exchange/Repricing Programs .

(a) The Board shall have the authority to effect, at any time and from time to time, with the consent of the affected holders, the cancellation of any or all outstanding Options or stock appreciation rights under the Plan and to grant in exchange one or more of the following: (i) new options or stock appreciation rights covering the same or a different number of shares of Stock but with an exercise or base price per share based on the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the new grant date or (ii) cash or shares of Stock, whether vested or unvested, equal in value to the value of the cancelled options or stock appreciation rights.

(b) The Board shall also have the authority, exercisable at any time and from time to time, with the consent of the affected holders, to reduce the exercise or base price of one or more outstanding stock options or stock appreciation rights or issue new stock options or stock appreciation rights with a lower exercise or base price in immediate cancellation of outstanding stock options or stock appreciation rights with a higher exercise or base price.

9. Terms and Conditions of Stock Issuances .

9.1 Issuances . Shares of Stock may be issued under the Plan through direct and immediate issuances without any intervening option grants. Shares of Stock may also be issued under the Plan pursuant to share right awards or restricted stock units that entitle the recipients to receive the shares underlying those awards or units upon the attainment of designated performance goals or the satisfaction of specified Service requirements or upon the expiration of a designated time period following the vesting of those awards or units. Each such stock issuance, share right award or restricted stock unit shall be evidenced by a Stock Issuance Agreement that complies with the terms specified below.

9.2 Consideration .

(a) Shares of Stock may be issued under this Section 9 for any of the following items of consideration that the Board may deem appropriate in each individual instance:

(i) cash or check made payable to the Company;

(ii) past services rendered to a Participating Company; or

(iii) any other valid form of consideration permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law at the time such shares are issued.

9.3 Vesting Provisions .

(a) Shares of Stock issued under this Section 9 may, in the discretion of the Board, be fully and immediately vested upon issuance or may vest in one or more installments over the Participant’s period of Service or upon attainment of specified performance objectives. Shares of Stock may also be issued under this Section 9 pursuant to share right

awards or restricted stock units that entitle the recipients to receive the shares underlying those awards or units upon the attainment of designated performance goals or the satisfaction of specified Service requirements or upon the expiration of a designated time period following the vesting of those awards or units, including (without limitation) a deferred distribution date following the termination of the Participant’s Service. The elements of the vesting schedule applicable to any unvested shares of Stock issued hereunder or share right award or restricted stock units granted hereunder shall be determined by the Board and incorporated into the Stock Issuance Agreement.

(b) Any new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including money paid other than as a regular cash dividend) that the Participant may have the right to receive with respect to the Participant’s unvested shares of Stock by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change affecting the outstanding Stock as a class without the Company’s receipt of consideration shall be issued subject to (i) the same vesting requirements applicable to the Participant’s unvested shares of Stock and (ii) such escrow arrangements as the Board shall deem appropriate.

(c) The Participant shall have full shareholder rights with respect to any shares of Stock issued to the Participant under this Section 9, whether or not the Participant’s interest in those shares is vested. Accordingly, the Participant shall have the right to vote such shares and to receive any regular cash dividends paid on such shares. The Participant shall not have any shareholder rights with respect to the shares of Stock subject to a restricted stock unit or share right award until that award vests and the shares of Stock are actually issued thereunder. However, dividend-equivalent units may be paid or credited, either in cash or in actual or phantom shares of Stock, on outstanding restricted stock unit or share right awards, subject to such terms and conditions as the Board may deem appropriate.

(d) Should the Participant cease to remain in Service while holding one or more unvested shares of Stock issued under this Section 9 or should the performance objectives not be attained with respect to one or more such unvested shares of Stock, then those shares shall be immediately surrendered to the Company for cancellation, and the Participant shall have no further shareholder rights with respect to those shares. To the extent the surrendered shares were previously issued to the Participant for consideration paid in cash, cash equivalent or otherwise, the Company shall repay to the Participant the same form of consideration as the Participant paid for the surrendered shares.

(e) The Board may in its discretion waive the surrender and cancellation of one or more unvested shares of Stock that would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the Participant’s Service or the non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to those shares. Any such waiver shall result in the immediate vesting of the Participant’s interest in the shares of Stock as to which the waiver applies. Such waiver may be effected at any time, whether before or after the Participant’s cessation of Service or the attainment or non-attainment of the applicable performance objectives.

(f) Outstanding share right awards or restricted stock units under this Section 9 shall automatically terminate, and no shares of Stock shall actually be issued in

satisfaction of those awards or units, if the performance goals or Service requirements established for such awards or units are not attained or satisfied. The Board, however, shall have the discretionary authority to issue vested shares of Stock under one or more outstanding share right awards or restricted stock units as to which the designated performance goals or Service requirements have not been attained or satisfied.

10. Change in Control .

10.1 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 stockholders 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 stockholders 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 stock of the Company or the corporation or corporations to which the assets of the Company were transferred (the “ Transferee Corporation(s) ” ), 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 stock of one or more corporations which, as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the Transferee Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine whether multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or multiple Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

10.2 Effect of Change in Control on Options and Stock Appreciation Rights . In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the “ Acquiring Corporation ” ), may either assume the Company’s rights and obligations under outstanding Options and stock appreciation rights or substitute for outstanding Options and stock appreciation rights substantially equivalent options or stock appreciation rights for the Acquiring Corporation’s stock. In the event the Acquiring Corporation elects not to assume or substitute for outstanding Options and stock appreciation rights in connection with a Change in Control, any unexercisable or unvested portions of outstanding Options and stock appreciation rights (and any shares acquired upon the exercise thereof) granted to persons whose Service has not terminated prior to such date shall be immediately exercisable and vested in full as of the date ten (10) days prior to the date of the Change in Control. The exercise or vesting of any Option or stock appreciation right and any shares acquired upon the exercise thereof that was permissible solely by reason of

this Section 10.2 shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Change in Control. Any Options or stock appreciation rights which are neither assumed or substituted for by the Acquiring Corporation 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares acquired upon exercise of an Option or stock appreciation right 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 Award Agreement evidencing such Option or stock appreciation right except as otherwise provided in such Award Agreement. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the corporation the stock of which is subject to the outstanding Options and stock appreciation rights immediately prior to an Ownership Change Event described in Section 10.1(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 and stock appreciation rights shall not terminate unless the Board otherwise provides in its discretion.

10.3 Effect of Change in Control on Stock Issuances, Restricted Stock Units and Share Rights Awards.

(a) All of the Company’s outstanding repurchase rights under Section 9 shall terminate automatically, and all the shares of Stock subject to those terminated rights shall immediately vest in full, in the event of any Change in Control, except to the extent those repurchase rights are to be assigned to the Acquiring Corporation or otherwise continued in full force and effect.

(b) In the event the Acquiring Corporation assumes the Company’s rights and obligations with respect to outstanding restricted stock units or share right awards assumed in connection with a Change in Control, then such units and awards shall be adjusted immediately after the consummation of that Change in Control to apply to the number and class of securities into which the shares of Stock subject to the unit or award immediately prior to the Change in Control would have been converted in consummation of such Change in Control had those shares actually been outstanding at that time, and appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the consideration (if any) payable per share thereunder, provided the aggregate amount of such consideration shall remain the same. If any such restricted stock unit or share right award is not so assumed or substituted with a substantially equivalent award for the Acquiring Corporation’s stock, then such unit or award shall vest, and the shares of Stock subject to that unit or award shall be issued as fully-vested shares, immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control.

(c) The Board shall have the discretionary authority to structure one or more unvested stock issuances or one or more restricted stock unit or other share right awards so that the shares of Stock subject to those issuances or awards shall automatically vest (or vest and become issuable) in whole or in part immediately upon the occurrence of a Change in Control or

upon the subsequent Termination after Change in Control (as defined in Stock Issuance Agreement).

11. Tax Withholding .

The Company’s obligation to deliver shares of Stock upon the exercise of Options or stock appreciation rights or the issuance or vesting of shares under the Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable federal, state, local and foreign tax and other withholding requirements (“Withholding Taxes”). 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 stock appreciation right or upon the issuance of fully-vested shares, or to accept from the holder of he Award 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 Withholding Taxes. Alternatively or in addition, in its discretion, the Company shall have the right to require the holder of the Award, through payroll withholding, cash payment or otherwise, including by means of a Cashless Exercise, to make adequate provision for any such Withholding Taxes. 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 any Award until the Participating Company Group’s tax withholding obligations have been satisfied.

12. Compliance with Securities Law .

The grant of Awards and the issuance of shares of Stock thereunder shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state and foreign law with respect to such securities. Options and stock appreciation rights may not be exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon such 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 shares of Stock may be issued under the Plan unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act shall be in effect at the time of such issuances with respect to shares issuable under the Plan or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable under the Plan 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 issuance of shares pursuant to any Award, the Company may require the holder 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.

13. Termination or Amendment of Plan .

The Board may terminate or amend the Plan at any time. However, subject to changes in applicable law, regulations or rules that would permit otherwise, stockholder approval will be required for any amendment to the Plan that (i) materially increases the number of shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan, (ii) materially expands the class of individuals eligible to receive option grants or other awards under the Plan, (iii) materially increases the benefits accruing to the participants under the Plan or materially reduces the price at which shares of Stock may be issued or purchased under the Plan, (iv) materially extends the term of the Plan or (v) expands the types of awards available for issuance under the Plan. No termination or amendment of the Plan shall affect any then outstanding Award unless expressly provided by the Board. In any event, no termination or amendment of the Plan may adversely affect any then outstanding Award without the consent of the holder, 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.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Secretary of the Company certifies that the foregoing sets forth the Finisar Corporation 2005 Stock Incentive Plan as duly adopted by the Board on April 20, 1999 and amended and restated through September 8, 2005.

1.2 Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of Company and its stockholders by providing an incentive to attract, retain and reward Eligible Employees of the Participating Company Group and by motivating such persons to contribute to the growth and profitability of the Participating Company Group. The Plan provides such Eligible Employees with an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company through the purchase of Stock.

If an outstanding Purchase Right for any reason expires or is terminated or canceled, the shares of Stock allocable to the unexercised portion of that Purchase Right shall again be available for issuance under the Plan.

4.2 Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of any merger (including a merger effected for the purpose of changing the Company’s domicile), sale of assets or other reorganization in which the Company is a party, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number and class of shares subject to the Plan, the Annual Increase and each Purchase Right, and in the Purchase Price. If a majority of the shares of the same class as the shares subject to outstanding Purchase Rights are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) shares of another corporation (the “New Shares” ), the Board may unilaterally amend the outstanding Purchase Rights to provide that such Purchase Rights are exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the number of shares subject to, and the Purchase Price of, the outstanding Purchase Rights 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 Purchase Price be decreased to an amount less than the par value, if any, of the stock subject to the Purchase Right. The adjustments determined by the Board pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be final, binding and conclusive.

5. Eligibility.

6. Offerings.

6.1 Offering Periods. Except as otherwise set forth below, the Plan shall be implemented by two series of Offerings. One series shall be of sequential Offerings of approximately twelve (12) months duration or such other duration as the Board shall determine (an “Annual Offering Period” ). The second series shall be of Offerings of approximately six (6) months duration or such other duration as the Board shall determine (a “Half-Year Offering Period” ). Prior to December 2004, Annual Offering Periods shall commence on or about December 1 of each year and end on or about the first November 30 occurring thereafter, and Half-Year Offering Periods shall commence on or about June 1 of each year and end on or about the first November 30 occurring thereafter. However, an initial Offering (the “Initial Offering Period” ) shall commence on the Effective Date and end on or about November 30, 2000. Commencing in December 2004, Annual Offering Periods shall commence on or about December 16 of each year and end on or about the first December 15 occurring thereafter, and Half-Year Offering Periods shall commence on or about June 16 of each year and end on or about the first December 15 occurring thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may establish a different duration for one or more Offering Periods or different commencing or ending dates for such Offering Periods; provided, however, that no Offering Period may have a duration exceeding twenty-seven (27) months. If the first or last day of an Offering Period is not a day on which the national securities exchanges or Nasdaq Stock Market are open for trading, the Company shall specify the trading day that will be deemed the first or last day, as the case may be, of the Offering Period.

6.2 Purchase Periods. Each Annual Offering Period shall consist of two (2) consecutive Purchase Periods of approximately six (6) months duration, or such other number or duration as the Board determines. Prior to December 2004, (a) a Purchase Period commencing on or about December 1 shall end on or about the next May 31, and a Purchase Period commencing on or about June 1 shall end on or about the next November 30; and (b) each Half-Year Offering Period shall consist of a single Purchase Period of approximately six (6) months duration coterminous with such Offering Period. However, the Initial Offering Period shall consist of two (2) consecutive Purchase Periods ending on or about May 31, 2000 and November 30, 2000, respectively. Commencing in December 2004, (a) a Purchase Period commencing on or about December 16 shall end on or about the next June 15, and a Purchase Period commencing on or about June 16 shall end on or about the next December 15; and (b) each Half-Year Offering Period shall consist of a single Purchase Period of approximately six (6) months duration coterminous with such Offering Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may establish a different duration for one or more Purchase Periods or different commencing or ending dates for such Purchase Periods. If the first or last day of a Purchase Period is not a day on which the national securities exchanges or Nasdaq Stock Market are open for trading, the Company shall specify the trading day that will be deemed the first or last day, as the case may be, of the Purchase Period.

7. Participation in the Plan.

7.1 Initial Participation. An Eligible Employee may become a Participant in an Offering Period by delivering a properly completed Subscription Agreement to the office designated by the Company not later than the close of business for such office on the Subscription Date established by the Company for that Offering Period. An Eligible Employee who does not deliver a properly completed Subscription Agreement to the Company’s designated office on or before the Subscription Date for an Offering Period shall not participate in the Plan for that Offering Period or for any subsequent Offering Period unless the Eligible Employee subsequently delivers a properly completed Subscription Agreement to the appropriate office of the Company on or before the Subscription Date for such subsequent Offering Period. An Employee who becomes an Eligible Employee after the Offering Date of an Offering Period shall not be eligible to participate in that Offering Period but may participate in any subsequent Offering Period provided the Employee is still an Eligible Employee as of the Offering Date of such subsequent Offering Period.

A-5

not either (a) withdrawn from the Plan pursuant to Section 12.1 or (b) terminated employment as provided in Section 13. A Participant who may automatically participate in a subsequent Offering Period, as provided in this Section, is not required to deliver any additional Subscription Agreement for the subsequent Offering Period in order to continue participation in the Plan. However, a Participant may deliver a new Subscription Agreement for a subsequent Offering Period in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.1 if the Participant desires to change any of the elections contained in the Participant’s then effective Subscription Agreement.

8. Right to Purchase Shares.

8.1 Grant of Purchase Right. Except as set forth below, on the Offering Date of each Offering Period, each Participant in that Offering Period shall be granted automatically a Purchase Right determined as follows:

(a) Annual Offering Period. Each Purchase Right granted on the Offering Date of an Annual Offering Period shall consist of an option to purchase that number of whole shares of Stock determined by dividing Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date.

(b) Half-Year Offering Period. Each Purchase Right granted on the Offering Date of a Half-Year Offering Period shall consist of an option to purchase that number of whole shares of Stock determined by dividing Twelve Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($12,500) by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date.

8.2 Pro Rata Adjustment of Purchase Right. If the Board establishes an Offering Period of any duration other than twelve months or six months, then the number of shares of Stock subject to each Purchase Right granted on the Offering Date of such Offering Period shall be determined as provided in Section 8.1, except that the applicable dollar amount shall be determined by multiplying $2,083.33 by the number of months (rounded to the nearest whole month) in the Offering Period and rounding to the nearest whole dollar.

8.3 Calendar Year Purchase Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant shall be granted a Purchase Right which permits his or her right to purchase shares of Stock under the Plan to accrue at a rate which, when aggregated with such Participant’s rights to purchase shares under all other employee stock purchase plans of a Participating Company intended to meet the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) in Fair Market Value (or such other limit, if any, as may be imposed by the Code) for each calendar year in which such Purchase Right is outstanding at any time. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the Fair Market Value of shares purchased during a given Offering Period shall be determined as of the Offering Date for such Offering Period. The limitation described in this Section shall be applied in conformance with applicable regulations under Section 423(b)(8) of the Code.

9. Purchase Price.

The Purchase Price at which each share of Stock may be acquired in an Offering Period upon the exercise of all or any portion of a Purchase Right shall be established by the Board; provided, however, that the Purchase Price on each Purchase Date shall not be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the lesser of (a) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date of the Offering Period or (b) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Purchase Date. Unless otherwise provided by the Board prior to the commencement of an Offering Period, the Purchase Price on each Purchase Date during that Offering Period shall be eighty-five percent (85%) of the lesser of (a) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date of the Offering Period, or (b) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Purchase Date.

10. Accumulation of Purchase Price through Payroll Deduction.

Shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of all or any portion of a Purchase Right may be paid for only by means of payroll deductions from the Participant’s Compensation accumulated during the Offering Period for which such Purchase Right was granted, subject to the following:

A-6

Participant’s Compensation to be deducted on each payday during an Offering Period in whole percentages of not less than one percent (1%) (except as a result of an election pursuant to Section 10.3 to stop payroll deductions) or more than twenty percent (20%); provided, however, that in no event may a Participant’s payroll deductions on any payday for the purchase of shares under the Plan and all other employee stock purchase plans of a Participating Company intended to meet the requirements of Section 423 of the Code exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Participant’s Compensation on such payday. The Board may change the foregoing limits on payroll deductions effective as of any Offering Date.

10.2 Commencement of Payroll Deductions. Payroll deductions shall commence on the first payday following the Offering Date and shall continue to the end of the Offering Period unless sooner altered or terminated as provided herein.

10.3 Election to Change or Stop Payroll Deductions. During an Offering Period, a Participant may elect to increase or decrease the rate of or to stop deductions from his or her Compensation by delivering to the Company’s designated office an amended Subscription Agreement authorizing such change on or before the Change Notice Date, as defined below. A Participant who elects, effective following the first payday of an Offering Period, to decrease the rate of his or her payroll deductions to zero percent (0%) shall nevertheless remain a Participant in the current Offering Period unless such Participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 12.1. The “Change Notice Date” shall be the day immediately prior to the beginning of the first pay period for which such election is to be effective, unless a different date is established by the Company and announced to the Participants.

10.4 Administrative Suspension of Payroll Deductions. The Company may, in its sole discretion, suspend a Participant’s payroll deductions under the Plan as the Company deems advisable to avoid accumulating payroll deductions in excess of the amount that could reasonably be anticipated to purchase the maximum number of shares of Stock permitted (a) under the Participant’s Purchase Right or (b) during a calendar year under the limit set forth in Section 8.3. Payroll deductions shall be resumed at the rate specified in the Participant’s then effective Subscription Agreement at the beginning, respectively, of (a) the next Offering Period, provided that the individual is a Participant in such Offering Period or (b) the next Purchase Period the Purchase Date of which falls in the following calendar year, unless the Participant has either withdrawn from the Plan as provided in Section 12.1 or has ceased to be an Eligible Employee.

10.5 Participant Accounts. Individual bookkeeping accounts shall be maintained for each Participant. All payroll deductions from a Participant’s Compensation shall be credited to such Participant’s Plan account and shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose.

10.6 No Interest Paid. Interest shall not be paid on sums deducted from a Participant’s Compensation pursuant to the Plan.

10.7 Voluntary Withdrawal from Plan Account. A Participant may withdraw all or any portion of the payroll deductions credited to his or her Plan account and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock by delivering to the Company’s designated office a written notice on a form provided by the Company for such purpose. A Participant who withdraws the entire remaining balance credited to his or her Plan account shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Plan in accordance with Section 12.1. Amounts withdrawn shall be returned to the Participant as soon as practicable after the Company’s receipt of the notice of withdrawal and may not be applied to the purchase of shares in any Offering under the Plan. The Company may from time to time establish or change limitations on the frequency of withdrawals permitted under this Section, establish a minimum dollar amount that must be retained in the Participant’s Plan account, or terminate the withdrawal right provided by this Section.

11. Purchase of Shares.

A-7

accumulated in the Participant’s Plan account during the Offering Period and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock by (b) the Purchase Price. However, in no event shall the number of shares purchased by the Participant during an Offering Period exceed the number of shares subject to the Participant’s Purchase Right. No shares of Stock shall be purchased on a Purchase Date on behalf of a Participant whose participation in the Offering or the Plan has terminated before such Purchase Date.

11.2 Pro Rata Allocation of Shares. If the number of shares of Stock which might be purchased by all Participants in the Plan on a Purchase Date exceeds the number of shares of Stock available in the Plan as provided in Section 4.1, the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as practicable and as the Company determines to be equitable. Any fractional share resulting from such pro rata allocation to any Participant shall be disregarded.

11.3 Delivery of Certificates. As soon as practicable after each Purchase Date, the Company shall arrange the delivery to each Participant of a certificate representing the shares acquired by the Participant on such Purchase Date; provided that the Company may deliver such shares to a broker designated by the Company that will hold such shares for the benefit of the Participant. Shares to be delivered to a Participant under the Plan shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.

11.4 Return of Cash Balance. Any cash balance remaining in a Participant’s Plan account following any Purchase Date shall be refunded to the Participant as soon as practicable after such Purchase Date. However, if the cash balance to be returned to a Participant pursuant to the preceding sentence is less than the amount that would have been necessary to purchase an additional whole share of Stock on such Purchase Date, the Company may retain the cash balance in the Participant’s Plan account to be applied toward the purchase of shares of Stock in the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be.

11.5 Tax Withholding. At the time a Participant’s Purchase Right is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time a Participant disposes of some or all of the shares of Stock he or she acquires under the Plan, the Participant shall make adequate provision for the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations, if any, of the Participating Company Group which arise upon exercise of the Purchase Right or upon such disposition of shares, respectively. The Participating Company Group may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation the amount necessary to meet such withholding obligations.

11.6 Expiration of Purchase Right. Any portion of a Participant’s Purchase Right remaining unexercised after the end of the Offering Period to which the Purchase Right relates shall expire immediately upon the end of the Offering Period.

11.7 Provision of Reports and Stockholder Information to Participants. Each Participant who has exercised all or part of his or her Purchase Right shall receive, as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date, a report of such Participant’s Plan account setting forth the total payroll deductions accumulated prior to such exercise, the number of shares of Stock purchased, the Purchase Price for such shares, the date of purchase and the cash balance, if any, remaining immediately after such purchase that is to be refunded or retained in the Participant’s Plan account pursuant to Section 11.4. The report required by this Section may be delivered in such form and by such means, including by electronic transmission, as the Company may determine. In addition, each Participant shall be provided information concerning the Company equivalent to that information provided generally to the Company’s common stockholders.

12. Withdrawal from Offering or Plan.

12.1 Voluntary Withdrawal. A Participant may withdraw from the Plan or any Offering by signing and delivering to the Company’s designated office a written notice of withdrawal on a form provided by the Company for this purpose. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of an Offering Period; provided, however, that if a Participant withdraws from the Plan or an Offering after a Purchase Date, the withdrawal shall not affect shares of Stock acquired by the Participant on such Purchase Date. A Participant who voluntarily withdraws from the Plan or an Offering is prohibited from resuming participation in the Plan in the same Offering from which he or she withdrew, but may participate in any subsequent Offering by again satisfying the requirements of

A-8

Sections 5 and 7.1. The Company may impose, from time to time, a requirement that the notice of withdrawal be on file with the Company’s designated office for a reasonable period prior to the effectiveness of the Participant’s withdrawal.

12.2 Return of Payroll Deductions. Upon a Participant’s voluntary withdrawal from the Plan or an Offering pursuant to Section 12.1, the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions which have not been applied toward the purchase of shares shall be refunded to the Participant as soon as practicable after the withdrawal, without the payment of any interest, and the Participant’s interest in the Plan or the Offering, as applicable, shall terminate. Such accumulated payroll deductions to be refunded in accordance with this Section may not be applied to any other Offering under the Plan.

13. Termination of Employment or Eligibility.

Upon a Participant’s ceasing, prior to a Purchase Date, to be an Employee of the Participating Company Group for any reason, including retirement, disability or death, or upon the failure of a Participant to remain an Eligible Employee, the Participant’s participation in the Plan shall terminate immediately. In such event, the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions which have not been applied toward the purchase of shares shall, as soon as practicable, be returned to the Participant or, in the case of the Participant’s death, to the Participant’s beneficiary designated in accordance with Section 20, if any, or legal representative, and all of the Participant’s rights under the Plan shall terminate. Interest shall not be paid on sums returned pursuant to this Section 13. A Participant whose participation has been so terminated may again become eligible to participate in the Plan by satisfying the requirements of Sections 5 and 7.1.

14. Change in Control.

14.1 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 stockholders 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, the “Transaction” ) wherein the stockholders 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 stock of the Company or the corporation or corporations to which the assets of the Company were transferred (the “Transferee Corporation(s)” ), 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 stock of one or more corporations which, as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the Transferee Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine whether multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or multiple Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

14.2 Effect of Change in Control on Purchase Rights. In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiring Corporation” ), may assume the Company’s rights and obligations under the Plan. If the Acquiring Corporation elects not to assume the Company’s rights and obligations under outstanding Purchase Rights, the Purchase Date of the then current Purchase Period shall be accelerated to a date before the date of the Change in Control specified by the Board, but the number of shares of Stock subject to outstanding Purchase Rights shall not be adjusted. All Purchase Rights which are neither assumed by the Acquiring Corporation 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.

A-9

15. Nontransferability of Purchase Rights.

Neither payroll deductions credited to a Participant’s Plan account nor a Participant’s Purchase Right may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any manner other than as provided by the Plan or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. (A beneficiary designation pursuant to Section 20 shall not be treated as a disposition for this purpose.) Any such attempted assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw from the Plan as provided in Section 12.1. A Purchase Right shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant.

16. Compliance with Securities Law.

The issuance of shares under the Plan shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state and foreign law with respect to such securities. A Purchase Right may not be exercised if the issuance of shares upon such exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any securities exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, no Purchase Right may be exercised unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, shall at the time of exercise of the Purchase Right be in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Right, or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Right may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of said 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 under the Plan 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 a Purchase Right, the Company may require the Participant 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.

17. Rights as a Stockholder and Employee.

A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder by virtue of the Participant’s participation in the Plan until the date of the issuance of a certificate for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 4.2. Nothing herein shall confer upon a Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Participating Company Group or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.

18. Legends.

The Company may at any time place legends or other identifying symbols referencing any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions or any provision convenient in the administration of the Plan on some or all of the certificates representing shares of Stock issued under the Plan. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to a Purchase Right in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section. Unless otherwise specified by the Company, legends placed on such certificates may include but shall not be limited to the following:

“THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED BY THE CORPORATION TO THE REGISTERED HOLDER UPON THE PURCHASE OF SHARES UNDER AN EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN AS DEFINED IN SECTION 423 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED. THE TRANSFER AGENT FOR THE SHARES EVIDENCED HEREBY SHALL NOTIFY THE CORPORATION IMMEDIATELY OF ANY TRANSFER OF THE SHARES BY THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF. THE REGISTERED HOLDER SHALL HOLD ALL SHARES PURCHASED UNDER THE PLAN IN THE REGISTERED HOLDER’S NAME (AND NOT IN THE NAME OF ANY NOMINEE).”

A-10

19. Notification of Disposition of Shares.

The Company may require the Participant to give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares acquired by exercise of a Purchase Right. The Company may require that until such time as a Participant disposes of shares acquired upon exercise of a Purchase Right, the Participant shall hold all such shares in the Participant’s name (or, if elected by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse but not in the name of any nominee) until the later of two years after the date of grant of such Purchase Right or one year after the date of exercise of such Purchase Right. The Company may direct that the certificates evidencing shares acquired by exercise of a Purchase Right refer to such requirement to give prompt notice of disposition.

20. Designation of Beneficiary.

20.1 Designation Procedure. A Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive (a) shares and cash, if any, from the Participant’s Plan account if the Participant dies subsequent to a Purchase Date but prior to delivery to the Participant of such shares and cash or (b) cash, if any, from the Participant’s Plan account if the Participant dies prior to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right. If a married Participant designates a beneficiary other than the Participant’s spouse, the effectiveness of such designation shall be subject to the consent of the Participant’s spouse. A Participant may change his or her beneficiary designation at any time by written notice to the Company.

20.2 Absence of Beneficiary Designation. If a Participant dies without an effective designation pursuant to Section 20.1 of a beneficiary who is living at the time of the Participant’s death, the Company shall deliver any shares or cash credited to the Participant’s Plan account to the Participant’s legal representative.

21. Notices.

All notices or other communications by a Participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

22. Amendment or Termination of the Plan.

The Board may at any time amend or terminate the Plan, except that (a) no such amendment or termination shall affect Purchase Rights previously granted under the Plan unless expressly provided by the Board and (b) no such amendment or termination may adversely affect a Purchase Right previously granted under the Plan without the consent of the Participant, except to the extent permitted by the Plan or as may be necessary to qualify the Plan as an employee stock purchase plan pursuant to Section 423 of the Code or to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any purchase right granted on or after March 2, 2005 may be amended or terminated immediately upon Board action, should the financial accounting rules applicable to the Plan as of March 2, 2005 be subsequently revised so as to require the Company to recognize compensation cost in connection with the shares of Stock offered for purchase under the such right. Any amendment to the Plan that would authorize the sale of more shares than are then authorized for issuance under the Plan or would change the definition of the corporations that may be designated by the Board as Participating Companies must be approved by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months of the adoption of such amendment.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Secretary of the Company certifies that the foregoing sets forth the Finisar Corporation 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended and restated through March 2, 2005, subject to the approval of the stockholders at the 2004 Annual Meeting.

Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan and the International Plan shall be twenty million (20,000,000), cumulatively increased on May 1 of each year commencing on May 1, 2010 and ending May 1, 2015 by one million (1,000,000) shares (the “Annual Increase” ), and shall consist of authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Stock, or any combination thereof. Any shares issued under the Plan shall reduce on a share-for-share basis the number of shares of Stock available for subsequent issuance under the International Plan. If an outstanding Purchase Right for any reason expires or is terminated or canceled, the shares of Stock allocable to the unexercised portion of that Purchase Right shall again be available for issuance under the Plan.

4.2 Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of any merger (including a merger effected for the purpose of changing the Company’s domicile), sale of assets or other reorganization in which the Company is a party, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number and class of shares available for issuance in the aggregate under the Plan and the International Plan, the Annual Increase and each Purchase Right, and in the Purchase Price. If a majority of the shares of the same class as the shares subject to outstanding Purchase Rights are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) shares of another corporation (the “New Shares” ), the Board may unilaterally amend the outstanding Purchase Rights to provide that such Purchase Rights are exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the number of shares subject to, and the Purchase Price of, the outstanding Purchase Rights 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 Purchase Price be decreased to an amount less than the par value, if any, of the stock subject to the Purchase Right. The adjustments determined by the Board pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be made in such a manner to prevent the dilution or enlargement of benefits under the Plan and the outstanding Purchase Rights thereunder, and such adjustments shall be final, binding and conclusive.

5. Eligibility.

5.2 Exclusion of Certain Stockholders. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Employee shall be granted a Purchase Right under the Plan if, immediately after such grant, the Employee would own or hold options to purchase stock of the Company or of any Parent Corporation or Subsidiary Corporation possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of such corporation, as determined in accordance with Section 423(b)(3) of the Code. For purposes of this Section 5.2, the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in determining the stock ownership of such Employee.

6. Offerings.

duration as the Board shall determine (an “Annual Offering Period” ). The second series shall be of Offerings of approximately six (6) months duration or such other duration as the Board shall determine (a “Half-Year Offering Period” ). Annual Offering Periods shall commence on or about December 16 of each year and end on or about the first December 15 occurring thereafter. The first Annual Offering Period shall commence on December 16, 2009 and end on December 15, 2010. Half-Year Offering Periods shall commence on or about June 16 of each year and end on or about the first December 15 occurring thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may establish a different duration for one or more Offering Periods or different commencing or ending dates for such Offering Periods; provided, however, that no Offering Period may have a duration exceeding twenty-seven (27) months. If the first or last day of an Offering Period is not a day on which the national securities exchanges or Nasdaq Stock Market are open for trading, the Company shall specify the trading day that will be deemed the first or last day, as the case may be, of the Offering Period.

7. Participation in the Plan.

7.2 Continued Participation. A Participant shall automatically participate in the next Offering Period commencing immediately after the final Purchase Date of each Offering Period in which the Participant participates provided that the Participant remains an Eligible Employee on the Offering Date of the new Offering Period and has not either (a) withdrawn from the Plan pursuant to Section 13.1 or (b) terminated employment as provided in Section 14. A Participant who may automatically participate in a subsequent Offering Period, as provided in this Section, is not required to deliver any additional Subscription Agreement for the subsequent Offering Period in order to continue participation in the Plan. However, a Participant may deliver a new Subscription Agreement for a subsequent Offering Period in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.1 if the Participant desires to change any of the elections contained in the Participant’s then effective Subscription Agreement.

8. Right to Purchase Shares.

B-5

8.4 Maximum Number of Shares Purchasable by All Participants. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the maximum number of shares purchasable in total by all Participants in this Plan and the International Plan on any one Purchase Date shall not exceed one-half of one percent (0.5%) of that number of shares of Stock outstanding on the immediately preceding May 1 of the calendar year in which such Purchase Date occurs. However, the Board shall have the discretionary authority, exercisable prior to the start of any Offering Period, to increase or decrease the limitation to be in effect for the number of shares purchasable in total by all Participants on each Purchase Date during that Offering Period.

9. Purchase Price.

10. Accumulation of Purchase Price through Payroll Deduction.

10.1 Amount of Payroll Deductions. Except as otherwise provided herein, the amount to be deducted under the Plan from a Participant’s Compensation on each payday during an Offering Period shall be determined by the Participant’s Subscription Agreement. The Subscription Agreement shall set forth the percentage of the Participant’s Compensation to be deducted on each payday during an Offering Period in whole percentages of not less than one percent (1%) (except as a result of an election pursuant to Section 10.3 to stop payroll deductions) or more than twenty percent (20%); provided, however, that in no event may a Participant’s payroll deductions on any payday for the purchase of shares under the Plan and all other employee stock purchase plans of a Participating Company intended to meet the requirements of Section 423 of the Code exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Participant’s Compensation on such payday. The Board may change the foregoing limits on payroll deductions effective as of any Offering Date.

B-6

10.3 Election to Change or Stop Payroll Deductions. During an Offering Period, a Participant may elect to increase or decrease the rate of or to stop deductions from his or her Compensation by delivering to the Company’s designated office an amended Subscription Agreement authorizing such change on or before the Change Notice Date, as defined below. A Participant who elects, effective following the first payday of an Offering Period, to decrease the rate of his or her payroll deductions to zero percent (0%) shall nevertheless remain a Participant in the current Offering Period unless such Participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 13.1. The “Change Notice Date” shall be the day immediately prior to the beginning of the first pay period for which such election is to be effective, unless a different date is established by the Company and announced to the Participants.

10.6 No Interest Paid. Interest shall not be paid on sums deducted from a Participant’s Compensation pursuant to the Plan.

10.7 Voluntary Withdrawal from Plan Account. A Participant may withdraw all or any portion of the payroll deductions credited to his or her Plan account and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock by delivering to the Company’s designated office a written notice on a form provided by the Company for such purpose. A Participant who withdraws the entire remaining balance credited to his or her Plan account shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Plan in accordance with Section 13.1. Amounts withdrawn shall be returned to the Participant as soon as practicable after the Company’s receipt of the notice of withdrawal and may not be applied to the purchase of shares in any Offering under the Plan. The Company may from time to time establish or change limitations on the frequency of withdrawals permitted under this Section, establish a minimum dollar amount that must be retained in the Participant’s Plan account, or terminate the withdrawal right provided by this Section.

11. Purchase of Shares.

11.1 Exercise of Purchase Right. On each Purchase Date of an Offering Period, each Participant who has not withdrawn from the Plan and whose participation in the Offering has not otherwise terminated before such Purchase Date shall automatically acquire pursuant to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right the number of whole shares of Stock determined by dividing (a) the total amount of the Participant’s payroll deductions accumulated in the Participant’s Plan account during the Offering Period and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock by (b) the Purchase Price. However, in no event shall the number of shares purchased by the Participant during an Offering Period exceed the number of shares subject to the Participant’s Purchase Right. No shares of Stock shall be purchased on a Purchase Date on behalf of a Participant whose participation in the Offering or the Plan has terminated before such Purchase Date.

B-7

in Section 4.1 or the maximum number of shares purchasable in total by all Participants in the Plan and the International Plan on any one Purchase Date as provided in Section 8.4, the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as practicable and as the Company determines to be equitable. Any fractional share resulting from such pro rata allocation to any Participant shall be disregarded.

12. ESPP Brokerage Account.

12.1 The Company may require that the shares purchased on behalf of each Participant shall be deposited directly into a brokerage account which the Company shall establish for the Participant at a Company-designated brokerage firm. The account will be known as the ESPP Brokerage Account. The following policies and procedures shall be in place for any shares deposited into the Participant’s ESPP Broker Account until those shares have been held for the requisite period necessary to avoid a disqualifying disposition under the federal tax laws. Accordingly, the shares must be held in the ESPP Brokerage Account until the later of the following two periods: (i) the end of the two (2)-year period measured from the start date of the Offering Period in which the shares were purchased and (ii) the end of the one (1)-year measured from the actual Purchase Date of those shares.

12.2 The deposited shares shall not be transferable (either electronically or in certificate form) from the ESPP Brokerage Account until the required holding period for those shares is satisfied. Such limitation shall apply both to transfers to different accounts with the same ESPP broker and to transfers to other brokerage firms. Any shares held for the required holding period may be transferred (either electronically or in certificate form) to other accounts or to other brokerage firms.

B-8

12.3 The foregoing procedures shall not in any way limit when the Participant may sell his or her shares. Those procedures are designed solely to assure that any sale of shares prior to the satisfaction of the required holding period is made through the ESPP Brokerage Account. In addition, the Participant may request a stock certificate or share transfer from his or her ESPP Brokerage Account prior to the satisfaction of the required holding period should the Participant wish to make a gift of any shares held in that account. However, shares may not be transferred (either electronically or in certificate form) from the ESPP Brokerage Account for use as collateral for a loan, unless those shares have been held for the required holding period.

12.4 To the extent the Board requires that shares be deposited in the ESPP Brokerage Account, the foregoing procedures shall apply to all shares purchased by the Participant under the Plan, whether or not the Participant continues to be an Employee.

13. Withdrawal from Offering or Plan.

13.1 Voluntary Withdrawal. A Participant may withdraw from the Plan or any Offering by signing and delivering to the Company’s designated office a written notice of withdrawal on a form provided by the Company for this purpose. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of an Offering Period; provided, however, that if a Participant withdraws from the Plan or an Offering after a Purchase Date, the withdrawal shall not affect shares of Stock acquired by the Participant on such Purchase Date. A Participant who voluntarily withdraws from the Plan or an Offering is prohibited from resuming participation in the Plan in the same Offering from which he or she withdrew, but may participate in any subsequent Offering by again satisfying the requirements of Sections 5 and 7.1. The Company may impose, from time to time, a requirement that the notice of withdrawal be on file with the Company’s designated office for a reasonable period prior to the effectiveness of the Participant’s withdrawal.

13.2 Return of Payroll Deductions. Upon a Participant’s voluntary withdrawal from the Plan or an Offering pursuant to Section 13.1, the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions which have not been applied toward the purchase of shares shall be refunded to the Participant as soon as practicable after the withdrawal, without the payment of any interest, and the Participant’s interest in the Plan or the Offering, as applicable, shall terminate. Such accumulated payroll deductions to be refunded in accordance with this Section may not be applied to any other Offering under the Plan.

14. Termination of Employment or Eligibility.

Upon a Participant’s ceasing, prior to a Purchase Date, to be an Employee of the Participating Company Group for any reason, including retirement, disability or death, or upon the failure of a Participant to remain an Eligible Employee, the Participant’s participation in the Plan shall terminate immediately. In such event, the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions which have not been applied toward the purchase of shares shall, as soon as practicable, be returned to the Participant or, in the case of the Participant’s death, to the Participant’s beneficiary designated in accordance with Section 21, if any, or legal representative, and all of the Participant’s rights under the Plan shall terminate. Interest shall not be paid on sums returned pursuant to this Section 14. A Participant whose participation has been so terminated may again become eligible to participate in the Plan by satisfying the requirements of Sections 5 and 7.1.

15. Change in Control.

15.1 Definitions.

B-9

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 stock of the Company or the corporation or corporations to which the assets of the Company were transferred (the “Transferee Corporation(s)” ), 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 stock of one or more corporations which, as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the Transferee Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine whether multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or multiple Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

15.2 Effect of Change in Control on Purchase Rights. In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiring Corporation” ), may assume the Company’s rights and obligations under the Plan. If the Acquiring Corporation elects not to assume the Company’s rights and obligations under outstanding Purchase Rights, the Purchase Date of the then current Purchase Period shall be accelerated to a date before the date of the Change in Control specified by the Board, but the number of shares of Stock subject to outstanding Purchase Rights shall not be adjusted. All Purchase Rights which are neither assumed by the Acquiring Corporation 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.

16. Nontransferability of Purchase Rights.

Neither payroll deductions credited to a Participant’s Plan account nor a Participant’s Purchase Right may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any manner other than as provided by the Plan or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. (A beneficiary designation pursuant to Section 21 shall not be treated as a disposition for this purpose.) Any such attempted assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw from the Plan as provided in Section 13.1. A Purchase Right shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant.

17. Compliance with Securities Law.

18. Rights as a Stockholder and Employee.

B-10

prior to the date such certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 4.2. Nothing herein shall confer upon a Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Participating Company Group or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.

19. Legends.

20. Notification of Disposition of Shares.

To the extent the Company does not require that shares be deposited into an ESPP Brokerage Account pursuant to Section 12, the Company may require the Participant to give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares acquired by exercise of a Purchase Right. The Company may require that until such time as a Participant disposes of shares acquired upon exercise of a Purchase Right, the Participant shall hold all such shares in the Participant’s name (or, if elected by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse but not in the name of any nominee) until the later of two years after the date of grant of such Purchase Right or one year after the date of exercise of such Purchase Right. The Company may direct that the certificates evidencing shares acquired by exercise of a Purchase Right refer to such requirement to give prompt notice of disposition.

21. Designation of Beneficiary.

21.1 Designation Procedure. A Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive (a) shares and cash, if any, from the Participant’s Plan account if the Participant dies subsequent to a Purchase Date but prior to delivery to the Participant of such shares and cash or (b) cash, if any, from the Participant’s Plan account if the Participant dies prior to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right. If a married Participant designates a beneficiary other than the Participant’s spouse, the effectiveness of such designation shall be subject to the consent of the Participant’s spouse. A Participant may change his or her beneficiary designation at any time by written notice to the Company.

21.2 Absence of Beneficiary Designation. If a Participant dies without an effective designation pursuant to Section 21.1 of a beneficiary who is living at the time of the Participant’s death, the Company shall deliver any shares or cash credited to the Participant’s Plan account to the Participant’s legal representative.

22. Notices.

B-11

23. Amendment or Termination of the Plan.

23.1 The Board may at any time amend or terminate the Plan, except that (a) no such amendment or termination shall affect Purchase Rights previously granted under the Plan unless expressly provided by the Board and (b) no such amendment or termination may adversely affect a Purchase Right previously granted under the Plan without the consent of the Participant, except to the extent permitted by the Plan or as may be necessary to qualify the Plan as an employee stock purchase plan pursuant to Section 423 of the Code or to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule. Any amendment to the Plan that would authorize the sale of more shares than are then authorized for issuance under the Plan or would change the definition of the corporations that may be designated by the Board as Participating Companies must be approved by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months of the adoption of such amendment.

23.2 Unless sooner terminated by the Board, the Plan shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) December 15, 2019, (ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance in the aggregate under the Plan and the International Plan shall have been sold pursuant to purchase rights exercised under the Plan and the International Plan or (iii) the date on which all Purchase Rights are exercised in connection with a Change in Control. No further purchase rights shall be granted or exercised, and no further payroll deductions shall be collected, under the Plan following such termination.

Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan and the U.S. Plan shall be twenty million (20,000,000), cumulatively increased on May 1 of each year commencing on May 1, 2010 and ending May 1, 2015 by one million (1,000,000) shares (the “ Annual Increase ” ), and shall consist of authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Stock, or any combination thereof. Any shares issued under the Plan shall reduce on a share-for-share basis the number of shares of Stock available for subsequent issuance under the U.S. Plan.

If a majority of the shares of the same class as the shares subject to outstanding Purchase Rights are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) shares of another corporation (the “ New Shares ” ), the Board may unilaterally amend the outstanding Purchase Rights to provide that such Purchase Rights are exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the number of shares subject to, and the Purchase Price of, the outstanding Purchase Rights 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 Purchase Price be decreased to an amount less than the

par value, if any, of the stock subject to the Purchase Right. The adjustments determined by the Board pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be made in such a manner to prevent the dilution or enlargement of benefits under the Plan and the outstanding Purchase Rights thereunder, and such adjustments shall be final, binding and conclusive.

shall end on or about the next December 15. Each Half-Year Offering Period shall consist of a single Purchase Period of approximately six (6) months duration coterminous with such Offering Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may establish a different duration for one or more Purchase Periods or different commencing or ending dates for such Purchase Periods. If the first or last day of a Purchase Period is not a day on which the national securities exchanges of the United States or the Nasdaq Stock Market are open for trading, the Company shall specify the trading day that will be deemed the first or last day, as the case may be, of the Purchase Period.

whole shares of Stock determined by dividing Twenty-Five Thousand U.S. Dollars (US$25,000) by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date.

(b) Half-Year Offering Period. Each Purchase Right granted on the Offering Date of a Half-Year Offering Period shall consist of an option to purchase that number of whole shares of Stock determined by dividing Twelve Thousand Five Hundred U.S. Dollars (US$12,500) by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date.

8.2 Pro Rata Adjustment of Purchase Right. If the Board establishes an Offering Period of any duration other than twelve months or six months, then the number of shares of Stock subject to each Purchase Right granted on the Offering Date of such Offering Period shall be determined as provided in Section 8.1, except that the applicable dollar amount shall be determined by multiplying US$2,083.33 by the number of months (rounded to the nearest whole month) in the Offering Period and rounding to the nearest whole dollar.

8.3 Calendar Year Purchase Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant shall be granted a Purchase Right which permits his or her right to purchase shares of Stock under the Plan to accrue at a rate which, when aggregated with such Participant’s rights to purchase shares under all other employee stock purchase plans of the Company and the Participating Company Group, exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand U.S. Dollars (US$25,000) in Fair Market Value (or such other comparable limit, if any, as may be established under Section 423 of the Code) for each calendar year in which such Purchase Right is outstanding at any time. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the Fair Market Value of shares purchased during a given Offering Period shall be determined as of the Offering Date for such Offering Period. The limitation described in this Section shall be applied in conformance with the regulations under Section 423(b)(8) of the Code.

8.4 Maximum Number of Shares Purchasable by All Participants . Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the maximum number of shares purchasable in total by all Participants in this Plan and the U.S. Plan on any one Purchase Date shall not exceed one-half of one percent (0.5%) of that number of shares of Stock outstanding on the immediately preceding May 1 of the calendar year in which such Purchase Date occurs. However, the Board shall have the discretionary authority, exercisable prior to the start of any Offering Period, to increase or decrease the limitation to be in effect for the number of shares purchasable in total by all Participants on each Purchase Date during that Offering Period.

9. Purchase Price .

Offering Date of the Offering Period, or (b) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Purchase Date.

10. Accumulation of Purchase Price through Payroll Deduction .

Unless otherwise approved by the Board in its sole discretion, shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of all or any portion of a Purchase Right may be paid for only by means of payroll deductions from the Participant’s Compensation accumulated during the Offering Period for which such Purchase Right was granted, subject to the following:

10.1 Amount of Payroll Deductions. Except as otherwise provided herein, the amount to be deducted under the Plan from a Participant’s Compensation on each payday during an Offering Period shall be determined by the Participant’s Subscription Agreement. The Subscription Agreement shall set forth the percentage of the Participant’s Compensation to be deducted on each payday during an Offering Period in whole percentages of not less than one percent (1%) (except as a result of an election pursuant to Section 10.3 to stop payroll deductions) or more than twenty percent (20%); provided, however, that in no event may a Participant’s payroll deductions on any payday for the purchase of shares under the Plan and all other employee stock purchase plans of the Company or a Participating Company exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Participant’s Compensation on such payday. The Board may change the foregoing limits on payroll deductions effective as of any Offering Date.

10.3 Election to Change or Stop Payroll Deductions. During an Offering Period, a Participant may elect to increase or decrease the rate of or to stop deductions from his or her Compensation by delivering to the Company’s designated office an amended Subscription Agreement authorizing such change on or before the Change Notice Date, as defined below. A Participant who elects, effective following the first payday of an Offering Period, to decrease the rate of his or her payroll deductions to zero percent (0%) shall nevertheless remain a Participant in the current Offering Period unless such Participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 13.1. The “ Change Notice Date ” shall be the day immediately prior to the beginning of the first pay period for which such election is to be effective, unless a different date is established by the Company and announced to the Participants.

either withdrawn from the Plan as provided in Section 13.1 or has ceased to be an Eligible Employee.

10.5 Participant Accounts. Individual bookkeeping accounts shall be maintained for each Participant. All payroll deductions from a Participant’s Compensation shall initially be credited to such Participant’s Plan account in the currency in which paid by the Participating Company until converted into U.S. dollars. Except as otherwise required by law, all payroll deductions may be deposited with the general funds of the Company or the Participating Company and may be used for any corporate purpose.

10.6 Conversion into U.S. Dollars . For purposes of determining the number of shares purchasable by a Participant, the payroll deductions credited to each Participant’s bookkeeping account during each Purchase Period shall be converted into U.S. dollars on the Purchase Date for that Purchase Period on the basis of the exchange rate in effect on such date. The Board shall have the absolute discretion to determine the applicable exchange rate to be in effect for each Purchase Date by any reasonable method (including, without limitation, the exchange rate actually used by the Company for its intra-Company financial transactions for the month of such transfer). Any changes or fluctuations in the exchange rate at which the payroll deductions collected on the Participant’s behalf are converted into U.S. dollars on each Purchase Date shall be borne solely by the Participant.

10.7 No Interest Paid. Interest shall not be paid on sums deducted from a Participant’s Compensation pursuant to the Plan.

10.8 Voluntary Withdrawal from Plan Account. A Participant may withdraw all or any portion of the payroll deductions credited to his or her Plan account and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock by delivering to the Company’s designated office a written notice on a form provided by the Company for such purpose. A Participant who withdraws the entire remaining balance credited to his or her Plan account shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Plan in accordance with Section 13.1. Amounts withdrawn shall be returned to the Participant as soon as practicable after the Company’s receipt of the notice of withdrawal and may not be applied to the purchase of shares in any Offering under the Plan. The Company may from time to time establish or change limitations on the frequency of withdrawals permitted under this Section, establish a minimum amount that must be retained in the Participant’s Plan account, or terminate the withdrawal right provided by this Section.

11. Purchase of Shares .

11.1 Exercise of Purchase Right. On each Purchase Date of an Offering Period, each Participant who has not withdrawn from the Plan and whose participation in the Offering has not otherwise terminated before such Purchase Date shall automatically acquire pursuant to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right the number of whole shares of Stock determined by dividing (a) the total amount of the Participant’s payroll deductions, as converted into U.S. dollars, accumulated in the Participant’s Plan account during the Offering Period and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock by (b) the Purchase Price. However, in no event shall the number of shares purchased by the Participant during an Offering Period exceed

the number of shares subject to the Participant’s Purchase Right. No shares of Stock shall be purchased on a Purchase Date on behalf of a Participant whose participation in the Offering or the Plan has terminated before such Purchase Date.

11.2 Pro Rata Allocation of Shares. If the aggregate number of shares of Stock to be purchased by all Participants in the Plan and the U.S. Plan on a Purchase Date exceeds the number of shares of Stock available in the Plan as provided in Section 4.1 or the maximum number of shares purchasable in total by all Participants in the Plan and the U.S. Plan on any one Purchase Date as provided in Section 8.4, the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as practicable and as the Company determines to be equitable. Any fractional share resulting from such pro rata allocation to any Participant shall be disregarded.

11.4 Return of Cash Balance. Any cash balance remaining in a Participant’s Plan account following any Purchase Date shall be refunded, in the currency in which collected by the Participating Company, to the Participant as soon as practicable after such Purchase Date. However, if the cash balance to be returned to a Participant pursuant to the preceding sentence is less than the amount that would have been necessary to purchase an additional whole share of Stock on such Purchase Date, the Company may retain the cash balance in the Participant’s Plan account to be applied toward the purchase of shares of Stock in the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be.

11.5 Tax Withholding. At the time a Participant’s Purchase Right is granted or exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time a Participant disposes of some or all of the shares of Stock he or she acquires under the Plan, the Participant shall make adequate provision for the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations, if any, of the Participating Company Group which arise upon exercise of the Purchase Right or upon such disposition of shares, respectively. The Participating Company Group may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation the amount necessary to meet such withholding obligations.

purchased, the Purchase Price (in U.S. dollars) for such shares, the date of purchase and the cash balance, if any, remaining immediately after such purchase that is to be refunded or retained in the Participant’s Plan account pursuant to Section 11.4. The report required by this Section may be delivered in such form and by such means, including by electronic transmission, as the Company may determine. In addition, each Participant shall be provided information concerning the Company equivalent to that information provided generally to the Company’s common stockholders.

12. ESPP Brokerage Account

12.3 The foregoing procedures shall not in any way limit when the Participant may sell his or her shares . Those procedures are designed solely to assure that any sale of shares prior to the satisfaction of the required holding period is made through the ESPP Brokerage Account. In addition, the Participant may request a stock certificate or share transfer from his or her ESPP Brokerage Account prior to the satisfaction of the required holding period should the Participant wish to make a gift of any shares held in that account. However, shares may not be transferred (either electronically or in certificate form) from the ESPP Brokerage Account for use as collateral for a loan, unless those shares have been held for the required holding period.

13. Withdrawal from Offering or Plan .

13.1 Voluntary Withdrawal. A Participant may withdraw from the Plan or any Offering by signing and delivering to the Company’s designated office a written notice of

withdrawal on a form provided by the Company for this purpose. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of an Offering Period; provided, however, that if a Participant withdraws from the Plan or an Offering after a Purchase Date, the withdrawal shall not affect shares of Stock acquired by the Participant on such Purchase Date. A Participant who voluntarily withdraws from the Plan or an Offering is prohibited from resuming participation in the Plan in the same Offering from which he or she withdrew, but may participate in any subsequent Offering by again satisfying the requirements of Sections 5 and 7.1. The Company may impose, from time to time, a requirement that the notice of withdrawal be on file with the Company’s designated office for a reasonable period prior to the effectiveness of the Participant’s withdrawal.

13.2 Return of Payroll Deductions. Upon a Participant’s voluntary withdrawal from the Plan or an Offering pursuant to Section 13.1, the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions which have not been applied toward the purchase of shares shall be refunded, in the currency in which collected by the Participating Company, to the Participant as soon as practicable after the withdrawal, without the payment of any interest, and the Participant’s interest in the Plan or the Offering, as applicable, shall terminate. Such accumulated payroll deductions to be refunded in accordance with this Section may not be applied to any other Offering under the Plan.

14. termination of employment or eligibility/transfer of employment

14.1 Termination of Employment or Eligibility . Upon a Participant’s ceasing, prior to a Purchase Date, to be an Employee of the Participating Company Group for any reason, including retirement, disability or death, or upon the failure of a Participant to remain an Eligible Employee, the Participant’s participation in the Plan shall terminate immediately. In such event, the Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions which have not been applied toward the purchase of shares shall, as soon as practicable, be returned, in the currency in which collected by the Participating Company, to the Participant or, in the case of the Participant’s death, to the Participant’s beneficiary designated in accordance with Section 21, if any, or legal representative, and all of the Participant’s rights under the Plan shall terminate. Interest shall not be paid on sums returned pursuant to this Section 14.1. A Participant whose participation has been so terminated may again become eligible to participate in the Plan by satisfying the requirements of Sections 5 and 7.1.

14.2 Transfer of Employment . In the event that a Participant who is an Employee of a Participating Company is transferred and becomes an Employee of the Company during a purchase period under the Plan, such individual shall continue to remain a Participant in the Plan, and payroll deductions shall continue to be collected until the final Purchase Date of the ongoing Offering Period as if the Participant had remained an Employee of the Participating Company.

In the event that an Employee of the Company who is a participant in the U.S. Plan is transferred and becomes an Employee of a Participating Company during a purchase period in effect under the U.S. Plan, such individual shall automatically become a Participant under the Plan for the duration of the Offering Period in effect at that time under the Plan and the

balance in such individual’s book account maintained under the U.S. Plan shall be transferred as a balance to a book account opened for such individual under the Plan. Such balance, together with all other payroll deductions collected from such individual by the Participating Company for the remainder of the Purchase Period under the Plan (as converted into U.S. Dollars), shall be applied on the next Purchase Date to the purchase of Stock under the Plan.

15. Change in Control .

15.1 Definitions.

(b) A “ Change in Control ” shall mean an Ownership Change Event or a series of related Ownership Change Events (collectively, the “ Transaction ” ) wherein the stockholders 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 stock of the Company or the corporation or corporations to which the assets of the Company were transferred (the “ Transferee Corporation(s) ” ), 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 stock of one or more corporations which, as a result of the Transaction, own the Company or the Transferee Corporation(s), as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations. The Board shall have the right to determine whether multiple sales or exchanges of the voting stock of the Company or multiple Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

15.2 Effect of Change in Control on Purchase Rights. In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or parent corporation thereof, as the case may be (the “ Acquiring Corporation ” ), may assume the Company’s rights and obligations under the Plan. If the Acquiring Corporation elects not to assume the Company’s rights and obligations under outstanding Purchase Rights, the Purchase Date of the then current Purchase Period shall be accelerated to a date before the date of the Change in Control specified by the Board, but the number of shares of Stock subject to outstanding Purchase Rights shall not be adjusted. All Purchase Rights which are neither assumed by the Acquiring Corporation 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.

16. Nontransferability of Purchase Rights .

Neither payroll deductions credited to a Participant’s Plan account nor a Participant’s Purchase Right may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any manner other than as provided by the Plan or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. (A beneficiary designation pursuant to Section 21 shall not be treated as a disposition for this purpose.) Any such attempted assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw from the Plan as provided in Section 13.1. A Purchase Right shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant.

17. Compliance with Securities Law .

18. Rights as a Stockholder and Employee .

A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder by virtue of the Participant’s participation in the Plan until the date of the issuance of a certificate for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 4.2. Nothing herein shall confer upon a Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or the Participating Company Group or interfere in any way with any right of the Company or the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.

19. Legends .

“THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED BY THE CORPORATION TO THE REGISTERED HOLDER UPON THE PURCHASE OF SHARES UNDER AN EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN. THE TRANSFER AGENT FOR THE SHARES EVIDENCED HEREBY SHALL NOTIFY THE CORPORATION IMMEDIATELY OF ANY TRANSFER OF THE SHARES BY THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF. THE REGISTERED HOLDER SHALL HOLD ALL SHARES PURCHASED UNDER THE PLAN IN THE REGISTERED HOLDER’S NAME (AND NOT IN THE NAME OF ANY NOMINEE).”

20. Notification of Disposition of Shares .

21. Designation of Beneficiary .

21.1 Designation Procedure. If permitted by the Board, a Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive (a) shares and cash, if any, from the Participant’s Plan account if the Participant dies subsequent to a Purchase Date but prior to delivery to the Participant of such shares and cash or (b) cash, if any, from the Participant’s Plan account if the Participant dies prior to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right. If a married Participant designates a beneficiary other than the Participant’s spouse, the effectiveness of such designation shall be subject to the consent of the Participant’s spouse. A Participant may change his or her beneficiary designation at any time by written notice to the Company.

22. Notices .

23. Amendment or Termination of the Plan .

23.1 The Board may at any time amend or terminate the Plan, except that (a) no such amendment or termination shall affect Purchase Rights previously granted under the Plan unless expressly provided by the Board and (b) no such amendment or termination may adversely affect a Purchase Right previously granted under the Plan without the consent of the Participant, except to the extent permitted by the Plan or to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule. Any amendment to the Plan that would authorize the sale of more shares than are then authorized for issuance under the Plan or would change the definition of the corporations that may be designated by the Board as Participating Companies must be approved by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months of the adoption of such amendment.

23.2 Unless sooner terminated by the Board, the Plan shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) December 15, 2019, (ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance in the aggregate under the Plan and the U.S. Plan shall have been sold pursuant to purchase rights exercised under the Plan and the U.S. Plan or (iii) the date on which all Purchase Rights are exercised in connection with a Change in Control. No further purchase rights shall be granted or exercised, and no further payroll deductions shall be collected, under the Plan following such termination.

24. Miscellaneous .

Additional or different provisions for individual Participating Companies may be incorporated in one or more Addenda to the Plan. Such Addenda shall have full force and effect with respect to the Participating Company to which they apply. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of such an Addendum and one or more other provisions of the Plan, other than the provisions of Section 8, the provisions of the Addendum shall be controlling.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Secretary of the Company certifies that the foregoing Finisar Corporation 2009 International Employee Stock Purchase Plan was duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on September 9, 2009, subject to the approval of the stockholders at the 2009 Annual Meeting.
