Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and the Registrant’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Charter”), provide for indemnification of the Registrant’s directors and officers for liabilities and expenses that they may incur in such capacities. In general, directors and officers are indemnified with respect to actions taken in good faith in a manner reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, actions that the director or officer had no reasonable cause to believe were unlawful.

Section 145 of the DGCL makes provision for the indemnification of officers and directors of corporations in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify the officers and directors of the Registrant under certain circumstances from liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director of the corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for a breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) in respect of certain unlawful dividend payments or stock redemptions or repurchases, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

As permitted by the DGCL, the Charter provides that no director of the Registrant shall be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability, except to the extent provided by applicable law in the situations described in clauses (i)—(iv), inclusive, set forth in the preceding paragraph. The effect of this provision of the Charter is to eliminate the rights of the Registrant and its stockholders (through stockholders’ derivative suits on behalf of the Registrant) to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of fiduciary duty as a director thereof, except in limited circumstances proscribed by law. This provision will not alter the liability of directors under federal securities laws.

The Charter also provides that the Registrant shall indemnify each person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Registrant), by reason of the fact that he is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Registrant, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Registrant, as a director, officer or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; provided, that the Registrant shall not indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding initiated by such person unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board of Directors of the Registrant or unless the corporation otherwise determines that such person is entitled to indemnification following such person’s written request therefor. The Charter further provides that the Registrant shall similarly indemnify such persons made party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Registrant to procure a judgment in its favor, against such expenses, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Registrant unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery of Delaware or such other court shall deem proper.

The Charter also provides that, if the Registrant does not assume the defense of any claim of which the Registrant receives notice by a person seeking indemnification (each, an “Indemnitee”), any expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, proceeding or investigation or any appeal therefrom shall be paid by the Registrant in advance of the final disposition of such matter; provided, that the payment of such expenses shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant as authorized by the Charter.

 

3


The Charter also provides that the indemnification and advancement of expenses described above shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law, agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding office for the Registrant, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and administrators of the Indemnitee. In addition, the Charter specifically authorizes the Registrant to enter into agreements with officers and directors providing indemnification rights and procedures different from those set forth in the Charter and, to the extent authorized from time to time by its Board of Directors, grant indemnification rights to other employees or agents of the Registrant or other persons serving the Registrant.

The Registrant has also entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. The indemnification agreements provide, among other matters, that the Registrant indemnify the directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by law, advance to the directors and executive officers all related expenses (subject to reimbursement if it is subsequently determined that indemnification is not permitted), and reimburse the directors and executive officers for expenses as a witness or in connection with a subpoena for a proceeding in which such director or executive officer is not a party.

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

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;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the 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 the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities 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.

(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 offering.

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the 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 Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re: Securities Being Registered under Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the Zenprise Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to you in connection with your filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on or about the date hereof relating to 285,817 shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Citrix Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) that may be issued pursuant to the Zenprise Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the “Plan”).

We have reviewed such documents and made such examination of law as we have deemed appropriate to give the opinions set forth below. We have relied, without independent verification, on certificates of public officials and, as to matters of fact material to the opinion set forth below, on certificates of officers of the Company.

The opinion set forth below is limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law (which includes reported judicial decisions interpreting the Delaware General Corporation Law). For purposes of the opinion set forth below, we have assumed that a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s Common Stock will be available for issuance when the Shares are issued.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, upon issuance and delivery against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

We hereby consent to the inclusion of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. In giving our consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

 

Very truly yours,
/s/ G OODWIN P ROCTER LLP

thereof. Awards granted pursuant to the Plan within that period shall not expire solely by reason of the termination of the Plan. Awards of Incentive Options granted prior to stockholder approval of the Plan are expressly conditioned upon such approval, but in the event of the failure of the stockholder to approve the Plan shall thereafter and for all purposes be deemed to constitute Nonstatutory Options.

SECTION 4. ADMINISTRATION .

4.1 General Rule . The Plan shall be administered by the Committee; provided, however , that at any time and on any one or more occasions the Board may itself exercise any of the powers and responsibilities assigned the Committee under the Plan and when so acting shall have the benefit of all of the provisions of the Plan pertaining to the Committee’s exercise of its authorities hereunder; and provided further, however , that the Committee may delegate to an executive officer or officers the authority to grant Awards hereunder to Service Providers, in accordance with such guidelines as the Committee shall set forth at any time or from time to time. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have complete authority, in its discretion, to make or to select the manner of making all determinations with respect to each Award to be granted by the Company under the Plan including the Service Provider to receive the Award and the form of Award. In making such determinations, the Committee may take into account the nature of the services rendered by such Service Provider, his or her present and potential contributions to the success of the Company and its Affiliates, and such other factors as the Committee in its discretion shall deem relevant. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall also have complete authority to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to it, to determine the terms and provisions of the respective Award Agreements (which need not be identical), and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The Committee’s determinations made in good faith on matters referred to in the Plan shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons having or claiming any interest under the Plan or an Award made pursuant hereto.

SECTION 5. ELIGIBILITY .

5.1 Persons Eligible . The Committee may grant from time to time and at any time prior to the termination of the Plan one or more Awards, either alone or in combination with any other Awards, to any Service Provider; however, only employees of the Company, shall be eligible for the grant of an Incentive Option ; provided, however , that from and after the Closing (as defined in the Merger Agreement), no further Awards shall be granted under the Plan .

SECTION 6. AUTHORIZATION OF GRANTS .

6.1 General Terms of Awards . Each grant of an Award shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan (including but not limited to any specific terms and conditions applicable to that type of Award set out in the following Sections), and such other terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee may prescribe. Any additional terms of an Award shall be set forth in an agreement evidencing the Award by and between the Company and the Participant.

 

4


6.2 Effect of Termination of Service, Etc . Unless the Committee, in its sole discretion shall at any time determine otherwise with respect to any Award, and, except as otherwise provided in any Award Agreement, if the Participant’s Service or other association with the Company and its Affiliates ends for any reason, including because of the Participant’s employer ceasing to be an Affiliate, (a) any outstanding Option of the Participant shall cease to be exercisable in any respect not later than three (3) months following that event and, for the period it remains exercisable following that event, shall be exercisable only to the extent exercisable at the date of that event, and (b) any other outstanding Award of the Participant shall be forfeited or otherwise subject to return to or repurchase by the Company on the terms specified in the applicable Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Award Agreement shall provide the Participant with the right to exercise an Option following the Participant’s termination of Service during the Option term, to the extent the Option was exercisable for vested shares upon termination of service, for at least thirty (30) days if termination of service is due to any reason other than cause, death or Disability, and for at least six (6) months after termination of service if due to death or Disability (but in no event later than the expiration of the Option term). If the Participant’s Service is terminated for cause, the Award Agreement may provide that the Participant’s right to exercise the Option terminates immediately on the effective date of the Participant’s termination.

6.3 Non-Transferability of Awards . Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.3, Awards shall not be transferable, and no Award or interest therein may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All of a Participant’s rights in any Award may be exercised during the life of the Participant only by the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative. However, the Committee may, at or after the grant of an Award of a Nonstatutory Option, or shares of Restricted Stock, provide that such Award may be transferred by the recipient to a family member; provided, however , that any such transfer is without payment of any consideration whatsoever and that no transfer shall be valid unless first approved by the Committee, acting in its sole discretion. For this purpose, “family member” means any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the employee’s household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which the foregoing persons have more than 50% of the beneficial interests, a foundation in which the foregoing persons (or the Participant) control the management of assets, and any other entity in which these persons (or the Participant) own more than 50% of the voting interests. Military or sick leave or other bona fide leave shall not be deemed a termination of Service, provided that it does not exceed the longer of ninety (90) days or the period during which the absent Participant’s reemployment rights, if any, are guaranteed by statute or contract.

6.4 Other Stock Based Awards . In the Committee’s discretion, other Awards of shares of Stock, rights to purchase restricted stock, and other Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on, shares of Stock or other property, may be granted hereunder to Participants (“Other Stock-Based Awards”), including without limitation stock appreciation rights and Awards entitling recipients to receive shares of Stock to be delivered in the future. Such Other Stock-Based Awards shall also be available as a form of payment in the settlement of other Awards granted under the Plan or as payment in lieu of compensation to which a Participant is otherwise entitled. Other Stock-Based Awards may be paid in shares of Stock or cash, as the Committee shall determine. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall determine the conditions of each Other Stock-Based Award, including any purchase price applicable thereto.

7.1 Prohibition on Repricing and Reload Grants .

(a) No Repricing . Other than in connection with a change in the Company’s capitalization (as described in Section 12 of the Plan), without stockholder approval (i) the exercise price of an Option may not be reduced, and (ii) no Option may be amended or cancelled for the purpose of repricing, replacing or regranting such Option with an exercise price that is less than the original exercise price of such Option.

(b) No Reload Grants . Options shall not be granted under the Plan in consideration for and shall not be conditioned upon the delivery of Stock to the Company in payment of the exercise price and/or tax withholding obligation under any Option.

The Committee may modify the terms of any Award under the Plan granted to a Participant who is, at the time of grant or during the term of the Award, resident or primarily employed outside of the United States in any manner deemed by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate in order that the Award shall conform to laws, regulations, and customs of the country in which the Participant is then resident or primarily employed, or so that the value and other benefits of the Award to the Participant, as affected by foreign tax laws and other restrictions applicable as a result of the Participant’s residence or employment abroad, shall be comparable to the value of such an Award to a Participant who is resident or primarily employed in the United States. The Committee may establish supplements to, or amendments, restatements, or alternative versions of the Plan for the purpose of granting and administering any such modified Award. No such modification, supplement, amendment, restatement or alternative version may increase the share limit of Section 8.

SECTION 8. STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN .

8.1 Share Limit . Subject to Sections 8.2 and 12, the aggregate number of shares of Stock which may be issued under the Plan shall not exceed 144,997,947 shares.

Beginning on the date, if any, that the Company becomes subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, no more than 144,997,947 Options shall be granted to any Participant in any calendar year period.

8.2 Additional Shares . For purposes of applying the foregoing limitation if any Option or stock appreciation right expires, terminates, or is cancelled for any reason without having been exercised in full, or if any other Award is forfeited by the recipient, the shares not purchased by the Optionee or which are forfeited by the recipient shall again be available for Awards to be granted under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) shares of Stock that are exchanged by a Participant or withheld by the Company as full or partial payment in connection with any Award under the Plan, as well as any shares of Stock exchanged by a Participant or withheld by the Company to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any Award under the Plan, shall not be available for subsequent Awards under the Plan and (b) shares of Stock not

Shares of Stock issued pursuant to the Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares or shares held by the Company in its treasury.

SECTION 9. RESTRICTED STOCK (the “Stock Issuance Program”) .

9.1 Restricted Share Agreement . Each Restricted Stock Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement between the Participant and the Company. Such award or sale shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions imposed by the Board, as set forth in the Award Agreement, that are not inconsistent with the Plan. The provisions of the various Award Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

9.2 Repurchase Rights and Transfer Restrictions . Each Restricted Stock Award shall be subject to such forfeiture conditions, rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal and other transfer restrictions as the Board may determine.

9.4 Restrictions and Restriction Period . During the Restriction Period applicable to shares of Restricted Stock, such shares shall be subject to limitations on transferability and a Risk of Forfeiture arising on the basis of such conditions related to the performance of services, Company or Affiliate performance or otherwise as the Committee may determine and provide for in the applicable Award Agreement. Any such Risk of Forfeiture may be waived or terminated, or the Restriction Period shortened, at any time by the Committee on such basis as it deems appropriate.

9.5 Rights Pending Lapse of Risk of Forfeiture or Forfeiture of Award . Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, at all times prior to lapse of any Risk of Forfeiture applicable to, or forfeiture of, an Award of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote, and the right to receive any dividends with respect to, the shares of Restricted Stock. The Committee, as determined at the time of Award, may permit or require the payment of cash dividends to be deferred and, if the Committee so determines, reinvested in additional Restricted Stock to the extent shares are available under Section 8.

9.6 Lapse of Restrictions . If and when the Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the Restricted Stock, the certificates for such shares shall be delivered to the Participant promptly if not theretofore so delivered.

9.7 Purchase Price . Shares of Restricted Stock shall be issued under the Plan for such consideration, in cash, other property or services, or any combination thereof, as is determined by the Committee.

SECTION 10. STOCK OPTIONS (the “Option Grant Program”) .

10.1 Date of Grant . The granting of an Option shall take place at the time specified in the Award Agreement.

10.2 Pricing .

(a) Exercise Price of Incentive Options . The price at which shares of Stock may be acquired under each Incentive Option shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of Stock on the Grant Date, or not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of Stock on the Grant Date if the Optionee is a Ten Percent Owner.

(b) Exercise Price of Nonstatutory Options . The price at which shares of Stock may be acquired under each Nonstatutory Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of Stock on the Grant Date.

10.3 Option Period. No Option may be exercised on or after the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date, or, with respect to Incentive Options, on or after the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date if the Optionee is a Ten Percent Owner.

10.4 Exercisability . An Option may be immediately exercisable or become exercisable in such installments, cumulative or non-cumulative, as the Committee may determine. In the case of an Option not otherwise immediately exercisable in full, the Committee may Accelerate such Option in whole or in part at any time.

10.5 Method of Exercise . An Option may be exercised by the Optionee giving written notice, in the manner provided in Section 19, specifying the number of shares with respect to which the Option is then being exercised. The notice shall be accompanied by payment in the form of cash or check payable to the order of the Company in an amount equal to the exercise price of the shares to be purchased or, subject in each instance to the Committee’s approval, acting in its sole discretion, and to such conditions, if any, as the Committee may deem necessary to avoid adverse accounting effects to the Company, by delivery to the Company of

 

8


shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the exercise price of the shares to be purchased. If the Stock is traded on an established market, payment of any exercise price may also be made through and under the terms and conditions of any formal cashless exercise program authorized by the Company entailing the sale of the Stock subject to an Option in a brokered transaction (other than to the Company). Receipt by the Company of such notice and payment in any authorized or combination of authorized means shall constitute the exercise of the Option. Within 30 days thereafter but subject to the remaining provisions of the Plan, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Optionee or his agent a certificate or certificates for the number of shares then being purchased. Such shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable.

10.6 Limit on Incentive Option Characterization . An Incentive Option shall be considered to be an Incentive Option only to the extent that the number of shares of Stock for which the Option first becomes exercisable in a calendar year do not have an aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date of the grant of the Option) in excess of the “current limit”. The current limit for any Optionee for any calendar year shall be $100,000 minus the aggregate Fair Market Value at the date of grant of the number of shares of Stock available for purchase for the first time in the same year under each other Incentive Option previously granted to the Optionee under the Plan, and under each other incentive stock option previously granted to the Optionee under any other incentive stock option plan of the Company and its Affiliates. Any shares of Stock which would cause the foregoing limit to be violated shall be deemed to have been granted under a separate Nonstatutory Option, otherwise identical in its terms to those of the Incentive Option.

10.7 Notification of Disposition . Each person exercising any Incentive Option granted under the Plan shall be deemed to have covenanted with the Company to report to the Company any disposition of such shares prior to the expiration of the holding periods specified by Section 422(a)(1) of the Code and, if and to the extent that the realization of income in such a disposition imposes upon the Company federal, state, local or other withholding tax requirements, or any such withholding is required to secure for the Company an otherwise available tax deduction, to remit to the Company an amount in cash sufficient to satisfy those requirements.

10.8 Repurchase Rights and Transfer Restrictions . Shares of Stock purchased on exercise of Options shall be subject to such forfeiture conditions, rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal and other transfer restrictions as the Board may determine. Such restrictions shall be set forth in the applicable Stock Option Agreement and shall apply in addition to any restrictions otherwise applicable to holders of shares of Stock generally.

10.9 No Rights as a Stockholder . An Optionee, or a transferee of an Optionee, shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Stock covered by the Option until such person becomes entitled to receive such shares by filing a notice of exercise and paying the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of the Option. No adjustments shall be made, except as provided by Section 12.

SECTION 11. SETTLEMENT OF AWARDS .

11.1 In General . Awards shall be settled in accordance with their terms.

 

9


11.2 Violation of Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or the relevant Award Agreement, if, at any time, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, the issuance of shares of Stock covered by an Award may constitute a violation of law, then the Company may delay such issuance and the delivery of a certificate for such shares until (i) approval shall have been obtained from such governmental agencies, other than the Commission, as may be required under any applicable law, rule, or regulation and (ii) in the case where such issuance would constitute a violation of a law administered by or a regulation of the Commission, one of the following conditions shall have been satisfied:

(a) the shares are at the time of the issue of such shares effectively registered under the Securities Act; or

(b) the Company shall have determined, on such basis as it deems appropriate (including an opinion of counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Company) that the sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other disposition of such shares or such beneficial interest, as the case may be, does not require registration under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws.

The Company shall make all reasonable efforts to bring about the occurrence of said events.

11.3 Corporate Restrictions on Rights in Stock . Any Stock to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to all restrictions upon the transfer thereof which may be now or hereafter imposed by the charter, certificate or articles, by-laws, or stockholders agreement of the Company. In addition, either at the time an Award is granted or by subsequent action, the Committee may, but need not, impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by a Participant or other subsequent transfers by a Participant of any Stock issued under an Award, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by the Participant or Participants, and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

11.4 Investment Representations . The Company shall be under no obligation to issue any shares covered by any Award unless the shares to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan have been effectively registered under the Securities Act or the Participant shall have made such written representations to the Company (upon which the Company believes it may reasonably rely) as the Company may deem necessary or appropriate for purposes of confirming that the issuance of such shares will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws and otherwise in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including but not limited to that the Participant is acquiring the shares for his or her own account for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of any such shares.

11.5 Placement of Legends; Stop Orders; Etc . Each share of Stock to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan may bear a reference to the investment representation made in accordance with Section 11.4 in addition to any other applicable restriction under the Plan, the terms of the Award and to the fact that no registration statement has been filed with the Commission in respect to such shares of Stock. All certificates for shares of Stock or other securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stock transfer orders and other

 

10


restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Stock is then listed, and any applicable federal or state securities law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

11.6 Tax Withholding . Whenever shares of Stock are issued or to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan, the Company shall have the right to require the recipient to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local or other withholding tax requirements if, when, and to the extent required by law (whether so required to secure for the Company an otherwise available tax deduction or otherwise) prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such shares. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on satisfaction of all such withholding obligations and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the recipient of an Award.

SECTION 12. ADJUSTMENT PROVISIONS .

12.1 Adjustment for Corporate Actions . All of the share numbers set forth in the Plan reflect the capital structure of the Company as of December 3, 2012. Subject to Section 12, if subsequent to that date the outstanding shares of Stock (or any other securities covered by the Plan by reason of the prior application of this Section) are increased, decreased, or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities, or if additional shares or new or different shares or other securities are distributed with respect to shares of Stock, through merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the property of the Company, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or other similar distribution with respect to such shares of Stock, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment will be made in (i) the maximum numbers and kinds of shares provided in Section 8, (ii) the numbers and kinds of shares or other securities subject to the then outstanding Awards, (iii) the exercise price for each share or other unit of any other securities subject to then outstanding Options (without change in the aggregate purchase price as to which such Options remain exercisable), and (iv) the repurchase price of each share of Restricted Stock then subject to a Risk of Forfeiture in the form of a Company repurchase right.

12.2 Dissolution or Liquidation . Upon dissolution or liquidation of the Company, other than as part of an Acquisition or similar transaction, each outstanding Option shall terminate, but the Optionee shall have the right, immediately prior to the dissolution or liquidation, to exercise the Option to the extent exercisable on the date of dissolution or liquidation.

12.3 Adjustment of Awards Upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or Nonrecurring Events . In the event of any corporate action not specifically covered by the preceding Sections, including but not limited to an extraordinary cash distribution on Stock, a corporate separation or other reorganization or liquidation, the Committee may make such adjustment of outstanding Awards and their terms, if any, as it, in its sole discretion, may deem equitable and appropriate in the circumstances. The Committee may make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, the events described in this Section) affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting

 

11


principles, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.

12.4 Related Matters . Any adjustment in Awards made pursuant to this Section 12 shall be determined and made, if at all, by the Committee and shall include any correlative modification of terms, including of Option exercise prices, rates of vesting or exercisability, Risks of Forfeiture, applicable repurchase prices for Restricted Stock and other financial objectives which the Committee may deem necessary or appropriate so as to ensure the rights of the Participants in their respective Awards are not substantially diminished nor enlarged as a result of the adjustment and corporate action other than as expressly contemplated in this Section 12. No fraction of a share shall be purchasable or deliverable upon exercise, but in the event any adjustment hereunder of the number of shares covered by an Award shall cause such number to include a fraction of a share, such number of shares shall be adjusted to the nearest smaller whole number of shares.

SECTION 13. CONSEQUENCES OF ACQUISITION .

13.1 Options .

(a) In the case of and subject to the consummation of an Acquisition, the Plan and all Options issued hereunder shall terminate upon the effective time of any such Acquisition unless provision is made in connection with the Acquisition for the assumption or continuation of Options theretofore granted by the successor entity, or the substitution of such Options with new Options of the successor entity or parent thereof, with an equitable or proportionate adjustment as to the number and kind of shares and, if appropriate, the per share exercise prices, as such parties shall agree (after taking into account any Acceleration hereunder and/or pursuant to the terms of any Award Agreement). In addition to, and in no way limiting the foregoing sentence, in the case of and subject to the consummation of an Acquisition, this Plan and all unvested Options hereunder may be assumed and all vested Options hereunder may be cancelled in return for a cash payment as set forth in Section 13.1(c).

(b) In the event of the termination of the Plan and all Options issued hereunder pursuant to this Section 13.1, each holder of Options shall be permitted, within a specified period of time prior to the consummation of the Acquisition as determined by the Committee, to exercise all such Options which are then exercisable or will become exercisable as of the effective time of the Acquisition; provided, however , that the exercise of Options not exercisable prior to the Acquisition shall be subject to the consummation of the Acquisition.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13.1(a), in the event of an Acquisition, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make or provide for a cash payment to the grantees holding Options in exchange for the cancellation thereof, in an amount equal to the difference between (A) the value as determined by the Committee of the consideration payable per share of Stock pursuant to the Acquisition (the “ Sale Price ”) times the number of shares of Stock subject to outstanding Options (to the extent then vested and exercisable, including by reason of acceleration in connection with such Acquisition, at prices not in excess of the Sale Price) and (B) the aggregate exercise price of all such outstanding vested Options.

 

12


13.2 Restricted Stock .

(a) In the case of and subject to the consummation of an Acquisition, all Restricted Stock Awards issued hereunder shall be forfeited immediately prior to the effective time of any such Acquisition unless provision is made in connection with the Acquisition for the assumption or continuation of such Awards by the successor entity, or the substitution of such Awards with new Awards of the successor entity or parent thereof, with an equitable or proportionate adjustment as to the number and kind of shares subject to such Awards as such parties shall agree (after taking into account any acceleration hereunder and/or pursuant to the terms of any Award Agreement).

(b) In the event of the forfeiture of shares of Restricted Stock issued hereunder pursuant to Section 13.2(a), such shares of Restricted Stock shall be repurchased from the holder thereof at a price per share equal to the lower of the original per share purchase price paid by the recipient (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12) or the current Fair Market Value of such shares, determined immediately prior to the effective time of the Acquisition.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12.2(a) in the event of an Acquisition, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make or provide for a cash payment to the grantees holding Restricted Stock in exchange for the cancellation thereof, in an amount equal to the Sale Price times the number of shares of Stock subject to such Awards, to be paid at the time of such Acquisition or upon the later vesting of such Awards.

SECTION 14. SECURITIES LAW REQUIREMENTS .

14.1 General . Shares of Stock shall not be issued under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of such shares complies with (or is exempt from) all applicable requirements of law, including (without limitation) the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities laws and regulations, and the regulations of any stock exchange or other securities market on which the Company’s securities may then be listed.

14.2 Dividend Rights . An Award Agreement for Restricted Stock may require that the holders of shares invest any cash dividends received in additional shares. Such additional shares shall be subject to the same conditions and restrictions as the award with respect to which the dividends were paid.

SECTION 15. LIMITATION OF RIGHTS IN STOCK; NO SPECIAL SERVICE RIGHTS .

A Participant shall not be deemed for any purpose to be a stockholder of the Company with respect to any of the shares of Stock subject to an Award, unless and until a certificate shall have been issued therefor and delivered to the Participant or his agent. Any Stock to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to all restrictions upon the transfer thereof which may be now or hereafter imposed by the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-laws of the Company. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Award Agreement shall confer upon any recipient of an Award any right with respect to the continuation of his or her employment or other association with the Company (or any Affiliate), or interfere in any way with the right of the Company (or any Affiliate), subject to the terms of any separate employment, advisory or consulting agreement or provision of law or corporate articles or by-laws to the contrary, at any time to terminate such employment, advisory or consulting agreement or to increase or decrease, or otherwise adjust, the other terms and conditions of the recipient’s employment or other association with the Company and its Affiliates.

SECTION 16. UNFUNDED STATUS OF PLAN .

The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation, and the Plan is not intended to constitute a plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company. In its sole discretion, the Committee may authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to deliver Stock or payments with respect to Options and other Awards hereunder, provided, however , that the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the unfunded status of the Plan.

SECTION 17. NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF THE PLAN .

Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including without limitation, the granting of stock options and restricted stock other than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either applicable generally or only in specific cases.

SECTION 18. TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN .

The Board may at any time terminate the Plan or make such modifications or amendments of the Plan as it shall deem advisable. Unless the Board otherwise expressly provides, no amendment of the Plan shall affect the terms of any Award outstanding on the date of such amendment. In any case, no termination or amendment of the Plan may, without the consent of any recipient of an Award granted hereunder, adversely affect the rights of the recipient under such Award. To the extent that any terms or conditions of this Plan, as amended and restated, adversely affect the rights of a Participant pursuant to an Award outstanding prior to the effective date of the amendment and restatement, the terms of such existing Awards shall apply, unless the Participant has provided consent to such changes. In addition, the Board may not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company obtained within 12 months before or after the Board adopts a resolution authorizing any of the following actions, amend the Plan to modify the provisions of Section 7.1 regarding the prohibitions on repricing and reload grants.

The Committee may amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, provided that the Award as amended is consistent with the terms of the Plan, but no such amendment shall impair the rights of the recipient of such Award without his or her consent.

SECTION 19. NOTICES AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS .

Any notice, demand, request or other communication hereunder to any party shall be deemed to be sufficient if contained in a written instrument delivered in person or duly sent by first class registered, certified or overnight mail, postage prepaid, or telecopied with a confirmation copy by regular, certified or overnight mail, addressed or telecopied, as the case
