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;
(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;
(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) do
not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 and the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, 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 of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
3
<PAGE> 4
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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 of 1933 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 Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the 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 Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(i) to correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any
inconsistency in the Plan or any Option Agreement and to make all other
determinations and take such other actions with respect to the Plan or any
Option as the Board may deem advisable to the extent consistent with the Plan
and applicable law.
3.4 COMMITTEE COMPLYING WITH SECTION 162(m). If a Participating Company
is a "publicly held corporation" within the meaning of Section 162(m), the Board
may establish a Committee of "outside directors" within the meaning of Section
162(m) to approve the grant of any Option which might reasonably be anticipated
to result in the payment of employee remuneration that would otherwise exceed
the limit on employee remuneration deductible for income tax purposes pursuant
to Section 162(m).
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 the sum of (a) Eight Hundred Ninety Thousand
(890,000) shares, (b) the number of shares of Stock, as of the Effective Date,
subject to outstanding options granted pursuant to the Company's Fourth Amended
and Restated 1983 Stock Option Plan and 1993 Stock Option Plan (collectively,
the "PRIOR PLANS"), which amount is One Million Six Hundred Seventy-Seven
Thousand Six Hundred Fifty-Four (1,677,654) shares (the "PRIOR PLAN OPTIONS"),
and (c) the number of shares of Stock available for future grant under the Prior
Plans as of the Effective Date, which amount is Two Hundred Forty-Five Thousand
Six Hundred Twenty-Four (245,624) (the "PRIOR PLAN AVAILABLE SHARES"), resulting
in an aggregate total of Two Million Eight Hundred Thirteen Thousand Two Hundred
Seventy-Eight (2,813,278) shares (the "SHARE RESERVE") and shall consist of
authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Stock or any combination
thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Share Reserve, determined at any
time, shall be reduced by (a) the number of shares remaining subject to
outstanding Prior Plan Options, (b) the number of shares issued upon the
exercise of Prior Plan Options, and (c) the number of shares, if any, of the
Prior Plan Available Shares which are issued upon the exercise of options
granted under the Prior Plans subsequent to the Effective Date. If an
outstanding Option for any reason expires or is terminated or canceled, or if
shares of Stock acquired, subject to repurchase, upon the exercise of an Option
are repurchased by the Company, the shares of Stock allocable to the unexercised
portion of such Option or such repurchased shares of Stock 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,
appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number and class of shares subject
to the Plan and to any outstanding Options, in the Section 162(m) Grant Limit
set forth in Section 5.4, and in the exercise price per share of any
5
<PAGE> 6
outstanding Options. If a majority of the shares which are of the same class as
the shares that are subject to outstanding Options are exchanged for, converted
into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event,
as defined in Section 8.1) shares of another corporation (the "New Shares"), the
Board may unilaterally amend the outstanding Options to provide that such
Options are exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the
number of shares subject to, and the exercise price per share of, the
outstanding Options shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner as
determined by the Board, in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.2
shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number, as determined by the
Board, 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.
5. ELIGIBILITY AND OPTION LIMITATIONS.
5.1 PERSONS ELIGIBLE FOR OPTIONS. Options may be granted only to
Employees, Consultants, and Directors. For purposes of the foregoing sentence,
"Employees," "Consultants" and "Directors" shall include prospective Employees,
prospective Consultants and prospective Directors to whom Options are granted in
connection with written offers of employment or other service relationship with
the Participating Company Group. Eligible persons may be granted more than one
(1) Option.
5.2 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. An Incentive Stock Option granted to a prospective
Employee upon the condition that such person become an Employee shall be deemed
granted effective on the date such person commences service with a Participating
Company, with an exercise price determined as of such date in accordance with
Section 6.1.
5.3 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 an
aggregate Fair Market Value greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000), the portion of such options which exceeds such amount shall be
treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 5.3, options
designated as Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order
in which they were granted, 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 5.3, 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 5.3, 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
<PAGE> 7
5.4 SECTION 162(m) GRANT LIMIT. Subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 4.2, at any such time as a Participating Company is a "publicly held
corporation" within the meaning of Section 162(m), no Employee shall be granted
one or more Options within any fiscal year of the Company which in the aggregate
are for the purchase of more than Two Hundred Thousand (200,000) shares;
provided, however, that the Company may make grant any newly-hired Employee an
Option for the purchase of up to Three Hundred Thousand (300,000) shares (the
"SECTION 162(m) GRANT LIMIT"). An Option which is canceled in the same fiscal
year of the Company in which it was granted shall continue to be counted against
the Section 162(m) Grant Limit for such period.
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. 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 EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price for each Option shall be
established in the sole discretion of the Board; provided, however, that (a) the
exercise price per share for an Option shall be not less than the Fair Marked
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.
6.2 EXERCISE PERIOD. 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
Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10)
years after the effective date of grant of such Option, (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,
and (c) no Option granted to a prospective Employee, prospective Consultant or
prospective Director may become exercisable prior to the date on which such
person commences service with a Participating Company.
6.3 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 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) not less than the exercise price, (iii) by the assignment of the
proceeds of a sale or
7
<PAGE> 8
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 the
Optionee's promissory note in a form approved by the Company, (v) by such other
consideration as may be approved by the Board from time to time to the extent
permitted by applicable law, or (vi) by any combination thereof. The Board may
at any time or from time to time, by adoption of or by amendment to the standard
forms of Option Agreement described in Section 7, 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) TENDER OF STOCK. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option may
not be exercised by tender to the Company of shares of Stock to the extent such
tender of Stock 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 of shares of Stock unless such shares either have been owned by
the Optionee for more than six (6) months or were not acquired, directly or
indirectly, from the Company.
(c) 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.
(d) PAYMENT BY PROMISSORY NOTE. No promissory note shall be
permitted if the exercise of an Option using a promissory note would be a
violation of any law. Any permitted promissory note shall be on such terms as
the Board shall determine at the time the Option is granted. The Board shall
have the authority to permit or require the Optionee to secure any promissory
note used to exercise an Option with the shares of Stock acquired upon the
exercise of the Option or with other collateral acceptable to the Company.
Unless otherwise provided by the Board, if the Company at any time is subject to
the regulations promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System or any other governmental entity affecting the extension of credit in
connection with the Company's securities, any promissory note shall comply with
such applicable regulations, and the Optionee shall pay the unpaid principal and
accrued interest, if any, to the extent necessary to comply with such applicable
regulations.
6.4 TAX WITHHOLDING. 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 to accept from the Optionee 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 federal, state, local and foreign taxes, if any, required by
law to be withheld by the Participating Company Group with respect to such
Option or the shares acquired upon the exercise thereof. Alternatively or in
addition, in its sole discretion, the Company shall have the right to require
the Optionee, through payroll withholding, cash payment or otherwise, including
by means of a Cashless Exercise, to make adequate provision for any such tax
withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group arising in connection
with the Option or the shares acquired upon the exercise thereof.
8
<PAGE> 9
The Company shall have no obligation to deliver shares of Stock or to release
shares of Stock from an escrow established pursuant to the Option Agreement
until the Participating Company Group's tax withholding obligations have been
satisfied by the Optionee.
7. STANDARDS FORMS OF OPTION AGREEMENT.
7.1 INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. Unless otherwise provided by the Board at
the time the Option is granted, an Option designated as an "Incentive Stock
Option" shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in the appropriate form of Incentive Stock Option Agreement adopted by the Board
concurrently with its adoption of the Plan and as amended from time to time.
7.2 NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS. Unless otherwise provided by the Board
at the time the Option is granted, an Option designated as a "Nonstatutory Stock
Option" shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in the appropriate form of Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement adopted by the
Board concurrently with its adoption of the Plan and as amended from time to
time.
7.3 STANDARD TERM OF OPTIONS. Except as otherwise provided in Section
6.2 or by the Board in the grant of an Option, any Option granted hereunder
shall have a term of ten (10) years from the effective date of grant of the
Option.
7.4 AUTHORITY TO VARY TERMS. The Board shall have the authority from
time to time to vary the terms of any of the standard forms of Option Agreement
described in this Section 7 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. Such authority shall include, but not
by way of limitation, the authority to grant Options which are immediately
exercisable subject to the Company's right to repurchase any unvested shares of
Stock acquired by an Optionee upon the exercise of an Option in the event such
Optionee's employment or service with the Participating Company Group is
terminated for any reason, with or without cause.
8. TRANSFER OF CONTROL.
8.1 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
9
<PAGE> 10
(iv) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
(b) A "TRANSFER OF 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.
8.2 EFFECT OF TRANSFER OF CONTROL ON OPTIONS. In the event of a
Transfer of 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 or substitute for outstanding Options substantially
equivalent options for the Acquiring Corporation's stock. For purposes of this
Section 8.2, an Option shall be deemed assumed if, following the Transfer of
Control, the Option confers the right to purchase, for each share of Stock
subject to the Option immediately prior to the Transfer of Control, the
consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property) to which a
holder of a share of Stock on the effective date of the Transfer of Control was
entitled. In the event the Acquiring Corporation assumes or substitutes for an
outstanding Option in connection with a Transfer of Control, no acceleration of
exercisability or vesting shall occur, unless otherwise provided in the Option
Agreement evidencing such Option or a change of control agreement between the
Company and the Optionee, if any. In the event the Acquiring Corporation elects
not to assume or substitute for outstanding Options in connection with a
Transfer of Control, any unexercisable or unvested portion of the outstanding
Options shall be immediately exercisable and vested in full as of the date ten
(10) days prior to the date of the Transfer of Control. The exercise or vesting
of any Option that was permissible solely by reason of this Section 8.2 shall be
conditioned upon the consummation of the Transfer of Control. Any Options which
are neither assumed or substituted for by the Acquiring Corporation in
connection with the Transfer of Control nor exercised as of the date of the
Transfer of Control shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of
the date of the Transfer of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares
acquired upon exercise of an Option prior to the Transfer of Control and any
consideration received pursuant to the Transfer of Control with respect to such
shares shall continue to be subject to all applicable provisions of the Option
Agreement evidencing such Option except as otherwise provided in such Option
Agreement. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the corporation the
stock of which is subject to the outstanding Options immediately prior to an
Ownership Change Event described in Section 8.1(a)(i) constituting a Transfer of
Control is the surviving or continuing corporation and immediately after such
Ownership Change Event less than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined
voting
10
<PAGE> 11
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 shall not terminate unless the Board
otherwise provides in its sole discretion.
9. PROVISION OF INFORMATION. Each Optionee shall be given access to
information concerning the Company equivalent to that information generally made
available to the Company's common stockholders.
10. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF INCENTIVE STOCK 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, a Nonstatutory Stock Option shall
be assignable or transferable to the extent permitted by the Board and set forth
in the Option Agreement evidencing such Option.
11. INDEMNIFICATION. In addition to such other rights of indemnification
as they may have as members of the Board or officers or employees of the
Participating Company Group, members of the Board and any of officers or
employees of the Participating Company Group to whom authority to act for the
Board or the Company is delegated shall be indemnified by the Company against
all reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily
incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in
connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a party
by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the
Plan, or any right granted hereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in
settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by independent legal
counsel selected by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment
in any such action, suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to
which it shall be adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding that such person
is liable for gross negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct in duties;
provided, however, that within 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.
12. 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, without the approval of the Company's
stockholders, there shall be (a) no increase in the maximum aggregate number of
shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan (except by operation of the
provisions of Section 4.2), (b) no change in the class of persons eligible to
receive Incentive Stock Options, and (c) no other amendment of the Plan that
would require approval of the Company's stockholders under any applicable law,
regulation or rule. In any event, no termination or amendment of the Plan may
adversely affect any then outstanding Option or any unexercised portion thereof,
without the consent of the Optionee, 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.

CONSILIUM, INC.
AMENDED AND RESTATED
1990 OUTSIDE DIRECTORS STOCK OPTION PLAN
1. Purpose. The Consilium, Inc. 1990 Outside Directors Stock Option
Plan (the "Prior Plan") was established effective as of January 17, 1990 (the
"Effective Date") to create additional incentive for the outside directors of
Consilium, Inc. and any successor corporation thereto (collectively referred to
as the "Company") to promote the financial success and progress of the Company.
The Prior Plan was amended and restated effective as of April 29, 1992 to
provide for annual grants of immediately exercisable options; and was amended
and restated again as of February 9, 1993 in the form set forth herein (the
"Plan").
2. Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the Board of
Directors of the Company (the "Board") and/or by a duly appointed committee of
the Board having such powers as shall be specified by the Board. Any subsequent
references to the Board shall also mean the committee if such committee has been
appointed and, unless the powers of the committee have been specifically
limited, the committee shall have all of the powers of the Board granted herein,
including, without limitation, the power to terminate or amend the Plan at any
time, subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable limitations imposed by
law. All questions of interpretation of the Plan or of any options granted under
the Plan (an "Option") shall be determined by the Board, and such determinations
shall be final and binding upon all persons having an interest in the Plan
and/or any Option. All Options shall be nonqualified stock options. Any officer
of the Company shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Company with
respect to any matter, right, obligation, or election which is the
responsibility of or which is allocated to the Company herein, provided the
officer has apparent authority with respect to such matter, right, obligation,

3. Eligibility and Type of Option. The Options may be granted only to
directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company or any present or
future parent and/or subsidiary corporations of the Company. Options granted to
eligible directors of the Company ("Outside Directors") shall be nonqualified
stock options; that is, options which are not treated as having been granted
under section 422(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"). For purposes of the Plan, a parent corporation and a subsidiary
corporation shall be as defined in sections 424(e) and 424(f) of the Code.

purchase of the authorized but unissued common stock of the Company (the

number of shares of Stock which may be issued under the Plan shall be 150,000
shares. In the event that any outstanding Option for any reason expires or is
terminated and/or shares of Stock subject to repurchase are repurchased by the
Company, the shares allocable to the unexercised portion of such Option, or such
repurchased shares, may again be subjected to an Option. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any such shares shall be made subject to a new Option only if the
grant of such new Option and the issuance of such shares pursuant to such new
Option would not cause the Plan or any Option granted under
1
<PAGE> 2
the Plan to contravene Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and as amended from time to time or any successor rule or regulation
("Rule 16b-3").
5. Time for Granting Options. All Options shall be granted, if at
all, within ten (10) years from the Effective Date.
6. Terms, Conditions and Forms of Options. Options granted pursuant
to the Plan shall be evidenced by written agreements specifying the number of
shares of Stock covered thereby, in substantially the two forms attached hereto
as Exhibit A and Exhibit B, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference
(the "Option Agreements"), and shall comply with and be subject to the following
terms and conditions:
(a) Automatic Grant of Options. Subject to execution by each Outside
Director of the appropriate Option Agreement:
(i) Each Outside Director who first serves on the Board after
the Effective Date shall be granted an Option to purchase fifteen thousand
(15,000) shares of Stock upon the first date of service.
(ii) In addition to any other grant made to an Outside Director
under the Plan, an Outside Director shall be granted an immediately exercisable
Option to purchase shares of Stock in an amount equal to two thousand five
hundred (2,500) times the number of full years of service of such Outside
Director during the period from October 31, 1990 through the date of the 1993
Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
(iii) In addition to any other grant made to an Outside Director
under the Plan, an Outside Director shall be granted an immediately exercisable
Option to purchase two thousand five hundred (2,500) shares of Stock on the date
of the first meeting of the Board of Directors in each successive fiscal year
commencing in fiscal 1994, provided that if an Outside Director has served less
than one full year at the date of grant, such director's grant will be pro-rated
to the number of shares (rounded to the nearest hundred shares) equal to 2,500
divided by twelve and multiplied by the number of full months of service by such
director on the date of grant.
(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Outside Director may
elect not to receive an Option granted pursuant to this paragraph 6(a) by
delivering written notice of such election to the Board (1) in the case of an
initial Option grant, no later than the date upon which such Outside Director
commences service on the Board, or (2) in the case of an Option grant pursuant
to paragraph 6(a)(iii), no later than six (6) months prior to the date of such
first meeting of the fiscal year.
(b) Option Price. The option price per share for an Option shall be
the fair market value, as determined by the average of the high and low prices
of a sale of a share of Stock on the National Association of Securities Dealers
Automated Quotations system (the "NASDAQ System") or other national securities
exchange, on the date of the granting of the Option. If the date of the granting
of the Option does not fall on a day on which the Company's Stock is trading on
the NASDAQ System or other national securities exchange, the date on which the
option price per share shall be established shall be the last day on which the
2
<PAGE> 3
Company's Stock was so traded prior to the date of the granting of the Option.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, an 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 with the provisions of section 424(a) of the Code.
(c) Exercise Period of Options. Any Option granted hereunder shall
be exercisable for a term of ten (10) years.
(d) Payment of Option Price. Payment of the option price for the
number of shares of Stock being purchased pursuant to any Option shall be made
in cash, by check or in cash equivalent.
(e) Shareholder Approval. Any Option granted pursuant to the Plan
under section 6(a)(ii) or (iii) shall be subject to obtaining shareholder
approval of the Plan at the first annual meeting of shareholders after the
adoption of such provision.
7. Authority to Vary Terms. The Board shall have the authority from
time to time to vary the terms of the Option Agreements, either in connection
with the grant 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 such revised or amended form or forms of stock option agreement
shall be in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Such authority shall include,
but not by way of limitation, the authority to grant Options which are
immediately exercisable subject to the Company's right to repurchase any
unvested shares of Stock acquired by the Optionee on exercise of an Option in
the event such Optionee's service as a director of the Company is terminated for
any reason.
8. Effect of Change in Stock Subject to Plan. Appropriate adjustments
shall be made in the number and class of Stock subject to the Plan and to any
outstanding Options and in the option price of any outstanding Options in the
event of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination,
reclassification, or like change in the capital structure of the Company.
9. Transfer of Control. A "Transfer of Control" shall be deemed to have
occurred in the event any of the following occurs with respect to the Company.
(a) the sale or exchange by the shareholders of the Company of more
than fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Company where the
shareholders of the Company before such sale or exchange do not retain, directly
or indirectly, at least a majority of the beneficial interest in the voting
stock of the Company;
(b) a merger in which the Company is not the surviving corporation;
or
(c) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets
(other than a sale or transfer to a subsidiary of the Company). In the event of
a Transfer of Control, any unexercisable and/or unvested portion of the
outstanding Options shall be immediately exercisable and vested as of a date
prior to the Transfer of Control, as the Board so determines. The exercise
and/or vesting of any Option that was permissible solely by reason of this
paragraph 9 shall be conditioned upon the
3
<PAGE> 4
consummation of the Transfer of Control. Any Options which are not exercised as
of the date of the Transfer of Control shall terminate effective as of the date
of the Transfer of Control.
10. Options Non-Transferable. During the lifetime of the Optionee,
the Option shall be exercisable only by the Optionee. No Option shall be
assignable or transferable by the Optionee, except by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution.
11. Termination or Amendment of Plan. The Board, including any duly
appointed committee of the Board, may terminate or amend the Plan at any time;
provided, however, that without the approval of the stockholders of the Company,
there shall be (a) no increase in the total number of shares of Stock covered by
the Plan (except by operation of the provisions of paragraph 8 above) and (b) no
expansion in the class of persons eligible to receive Options; and provided
further, that the provisions of the Plan addressing eligibility to participate
in the Plan and the amount, price and timing of grants of Options shall not be
amended more than once every six (6) months, other than to comport to changes in
the Code, or the rules thereunder. In addition to the foregoing, the approval of
the Company's stockholders shall be sought for any amendment to the Plan for
which the Board deems stockholder approval necessary in order to comply with
Rule 16b-3. In any event, no termination or amendment may adversely affect any
then outstanding Option or any unexercised portion thereof, without the consent
of the Optionee.
12. Options Granted Under the Prior Plan. Any Option previously
granted by the Company under the Prior Plan shall continue to be governed under
the terms of the Prior Plan and the terms of the agreement documenting that
Option.
The undersigned Secretary of the Company hereby certifies that the
foregoing is the Amended and Restated Consilium, Inc. 1990 Outside Directors
Stock Option Plan as adopted by the Board on February 9, 1993 and amended by the
Board through December 16, 1997.

3
<PAGE> 4
Company shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Company with respect to
any matter, right, obligation, or election which is the responsibility of or
which is allocated to the Company herein, provided the officer has apparent
authority with respect to such matter, right, obligation, or election.
4. EXERCISE OF THE OPTION.
4.1 RIGHT TO EXERCISE. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Option
shall be exercisable on and after the Initial Vesting Date and prior to the
termination of the Option (as provided in Section 6) in an amount not to exceed
the Number of Option Shares multiplied by the Vested Ratio less the number of
shares previously acquired upon exercise of the Option. In no event shall the
Option be exercisable for more shares than the Number of Option Shares.
4.2 METHOD OF EXERCISE. Exercise of the Option shall be by written
notice to the Company which must state the election to exercise the Option, the
number of whole shares of Stock for which the Option is being exercised and such
other representations and agreements as to the Optionee's investment intent with
respect to such shares as may be required pursuant to the provisions of this
Option Agreement. The written notice must be signed by the Optionee and must be
delivered in person, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested,
by confirmed facsimile transmission, or by such other means as the Company may
permit, to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, or other authorized
representative of the Participating Company Group, prior to the termination of
the Option as set forth in Section 6, accompanied by full payment of the
aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock being purchased. The
Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such
written notice and the aggregate Exercise Price.
4.3 PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE.
(a) FORMS OF CONSIDERATION AUTHORIZED. Except as otherwise provided
below, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock
for which the Option is being exercised shall be made (i) in cash, by check, or
cash equivalent, (ii) by tender to the Company of whole 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) not less than the aggregate Exercise Price, (iii) by means of a
Cashless Exercise, as defined in Section 4.3(c), or (iv) by any combination of
the foregoing.
(b) TENDER OF STOCK. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Option may
not be exercised by tender to the Company of shares of Stock to the extent such
tender of Stock would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law,
regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company's stock. The
Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company of shares of Stock unless
such shares either have been owned by the Optionee for more than six (6) months
or were not acquired, directly or indirectly, from the Company.
(c) CASHLESS EXERCISE. A "CASHLESS EXERCISE" means the assignment in
a form acceptable to the Company of the proceeds of a sale or loan with respect
to some or all of the shares of Stock acquired upon the exercise of the Option
pursuant to a program or
4
<PAGE> 5
procedure approved by the Company (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). The Company
reserves, at any and all times, the right, in the Company's sole and absolute
discretion, to decline to approve or terminate any such program or procedure.
4.4 TAX WITHHOLDING. At the time the Option is exercised, in whole or
in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the Optionee
hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the
Optionee, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for (including by
means of a Cashless Exercise to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums
required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding
obligations of the Participating Company Group, if any, which arise in
connection with the Option, including, without limitation, obligations arising
upon (i) the exercise, in whole or in part, of the Option, (ii) the transfer, in
whole or in part, of any shares acquired upon exercise of the Option, (iii) the
operation of any law or regulation providing for the imputation of interest, or
(iv) the lapsing of any restriction with respect to any shares acquired upon
exercise of the Option. The Optionee is cautioned that the Option is not
exercisable unless the tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company
Group are satisfied. Accordingly, the Optionee may not be able to exercise the
Option when desired even though the Option is vested, and the Company shall have
no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares or release such shares from
any escrow provided for herein.
4.5 CERTIFICATE REGISTRATION. Except in the event the Exercise Price is
paid by means of a Cashless Exercise, the certificate for the shares as to which
the Option is exercised shall be registered in the name of the Optionee, or, if
applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Optionee.
4.6 RESTRICTIONS ON GRANT OF THE OPTION AND ISSUANCE OF SHARES. The
grant of the Option and the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise of the
Option shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of
federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. The Option may
not be exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon 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, the Option
may not be exercised unless (i) a registration statement under the Securities
Act shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the
shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (ii) in the opinion of legal
counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be
issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. THE OPTIONEE IS CAUTIONED THAT
THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED.
ACCORDINGLY, THE OPTIONEE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED
EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS VESTED. Questions concerning this restriction should
be directed to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. 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 subject to the Option 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 the Option, the
5
<PAGE> 6
Company may require the Optionee 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.
4.7 FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to issue
fractional shares upon the exercise of the Option.
5. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF THE OPTION. The Option may be exercised during the
lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee or the Optionee's guardian or
legal representative and may not be assigned or transferred in any manner except
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Following the death of the
Optionee, the Option, to the extent provided in Section 7, may be exercised by
the Optionee's legal representative or by any person empowered to do so under
the deceased Optionee's will or under the then applicable laws of descent and
distribution.
6. TERMINATION OF THE OPTION. The Option shall terminate and may no longer
be exercised on the first to occur of (a) the Option Expiration Date, (b) the
last date for exercising the Option following termination of the Optionee's
Service as described in Section 7, or (c) a Transfer of Control to the extent
provided in Section 8.
7. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE.
7.1 OPTION EXERCISABILITY.
(a) DISABILITY. If the Optionee's Service with the Participating
Company Group is terminated 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 Option Expiration Date.
(b) DEATH. If the Optionee's Service with the Participating
Company Group is terminated 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 three (3) months
after the Optionee's termination of Service.
(c) OTHER TERMINATION OF SERVICE. If the Optionee's Service with
the Participating Company Group terminates for any reason, except Disability or
death, 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 within three (3) months (or such other longer period of time as
determined by the Board, in its sole discretion) after the date on which the
Optionee's Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option
Expiration Date.
6
<PAGE> 7
7.2 EXTENSION IF EXERCISE PREVENTED BY LAW. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the exercise of the Option within the applicable time periods set
forth in Section 7.1 is prevented by the provisions of Section 4.6, the Option
shall remain exercisable until three (3) months 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.
7.3 EXTENSION IF OPTIONEE SUBJECT TO SECTION 16(b). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if a sale within the applicable time periods set forth in Section
7.1 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.
7.4 LEAVE OF ABSENCE. For purposes of Section 7.1, the Optionee's
Service with the Participating Company Group shall not be deemed to terminate if
the Optionee takes any military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of
absence approved by the Company of ninety (90) days or less. In the event of a
leave of absence in excess of ninety (90) days, the Optionee's Service shall be
deemed to terminate on the ninety-first (91st) day of such leave unless the
Optionee's right to return to Service with the Participating Company Group
remains guaranteed by statute or contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless
otherwise designated by the Company (or required by law), a leave of absence
shall not be treated as Service for purposes of determining the Optionee's
Vested Ratio.
8. TRANSFER OF CONTROL.
8.1 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 "TRANSFER OF 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
7
<PAGE> 8
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.
8.2 EFFECT OF TRANSFER OF CONTROL ON OPTION.
(a) In the event of a Transfer of 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 the Option or substitute for the Option a substantially
equivalent option for the Acquiring Corporation's stock. For purposes of this
Section 8.2, an Option shall be deemed assumed if, following the Transfer of
Control, the Option confers the right to purchase, for each share of Stock
subject to the Option immediately prior to the Transfer of Control, the
consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property) to which a
holder of a share of Stock on the effective date of the Transfer of Control was
entitled. In the event the Acquiring Corporation elects not to assume the
Company's rights and obligations under the Option or substitute for the Option
in connection with the Transfer of Control, any unexercised portion of the
Option shall be immediately exercisable and vested in full as of the date ten
(10) days prior to the date of the Transfer of Control. Any exercise of the
Option that was permissible solely by reason of this Section 8.2 shall be
conditioned upon the consummation of the Transfer of Control. The Option shall
terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the date of the Transfer
of Control to the extent that the Option is neither assumed or substituted for
by the Acquiring Corporation in connection with the Transfer of Control nor
exercised as of the date of the Transfer of Control. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, shares acquired upon exercise of the Option prior to the Transfer of
Control and any consideration received pursuant to the Transfer of Control with
respect to such shares shall continue to be subject to all applicable provisions
of this Option Agreement except as otherwise provided herein. Furthermore,
notwithstanding the foregoing, if the corporation the stock of which is subject
to the Option immediately prior to an Ownership Change Event described in
Section 8.1(a)(i) constituting a Transfer of 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 Option shall not
terminate unless the Board otherwise provides in its sole discretion.
(b) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in the event
of a Transfer of Control (other than a Transfer of Control in which any
unexercised portion of the Option shall be immediately exercisable and vested in
full pursuant to Section 8(a) above), the Vested Ratio determined pursuant to
Section 1.1(f) above shall be adjusted effective upon and following the date of
the Transfer of Control by adding to the Vested Ratio as otherwise
8
<PAGE> 9
determined pursuant to Section 1.1(f) the following fraction (provided that in
no event shall the Vested Ratio exceed l/l):
(i) twelve forty-eighths (12/48) if the consideration for each share
of Stock received by the stockholders of the Company has a fair market value of
less than fifteen dollars ($15); or
(ii) thirty forty-eighths (30/48) if the consideration for each share
of Stock received by the stockholders of the Company has a fair market value of
at least fifteen dollars ($15) but less than eighteen dollars ($18); or
(iii) thirty-six forty-eighths (36/48) if the consideration for each
share of Stock received by the stockholders of the Company has a fair market
value of at least eighteen dollars ($18).
9. 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 made in the number, Exercise Price and class of
shares of stock subject to the Option. If a majority of the shares which are of
the same class as the shares that are subject to the Option 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 Option to provide that the Option is exercisable for New
Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the Number of Option Shares and the
Exercise Price shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner, as determined
by the Board, in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 9 shall
be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number, as determined by the Board,
and in no event may the Exercise Price 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 9 shall be final, binding and
conclusive.
10. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT. The Optionee shall
have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by the Option
until the date of the issuance of a certificate for the shares for which the
Option has been exercised (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 9. Nothing in this Option Agreement shall confer upon the
Optionee any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or
interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to
terminate the Optionee's Service as an Employee or Consultant, as the case may
be, at any time.
11. LEGENDS. The Company may at any time place legends referencing any
applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions on all
certificates representing shares of stock subject to the provisions of this
Option Agreement. The Optionee shall, at the request of the Company, promptly
present to the Company any and all certificates representing
9
<PAGE> 10
shares acquired pursuant to the Option in the possession of the Optionee in
order to carry out the provisions of this Section.
12. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF SHARES. No shares acquired upon exercise of
the Option may be sold, exchanged, transferred (including, without limitation,
any transfer to a nominee or agent of the Optionee), assigned, pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, including by operation of law, in any
manner which violates any of the provisions of this Option Agreement, and any
such attempted disposition shall be void. The Company shall not be required (a)
to transfer on its books any shares which will have been transferred in
violation of any of the provisions set forth in this Option Agreement or (b) to
treat as owner of such shares or to accord the right to vote as such owner or to
pay dividends to any transferee to whom such shares will have been so
transferred.
13. BINDING EFFECT. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth
herein, this Option Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.
14. TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT. The Board may terminate or amend the Option
at any time; provided, however, that except as provided in Section 8.2 in
connection with a Transfer of Control, no such termination or amendment may
adversely affect the Option or any unexercised portion hereof without the
consent of the Optionee unless such termination or amendment is necessary to
comply with any applicable law or government regulation. No amendment or
addition to this Option Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.
15. INTEGRATED AGREEMENT. This Option Agreement constitutes the entire
understanding and agreement of the Optionee and the Participating Company Group
with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and there are no
agreements, understandings, restrictions, representations, or warranties among
the Optionee and the Participating Company Group with respect to such subject
matter other than those as set forth or provided for herein, except for the
provisions set forth in a change of control agreement between the Company and
the Optionee, if any. To the extent contemplated herein, the provisions of this
Option Agreement shall survive any exercise of the Option and shall remain in
full force and effect.
16. APPLICABLE LAW. This Option Agreement shall be governed by the laws of
the State of California as such laws are applied to agreements between
California residents entered into and to be performed entirely within the State
of California.
