Each Plan Participant may name, from time to time, any beneficiary or beneficiaries (which may be named contingently or successively) as his or her beneficiary for purposes of this Program. Each designation shall be on a form prescribed by the Program Administrators, will be effective only when delivered to the Company, and when effective will revoke all prior designations by the Plan Participant. If a Plan Participant dies with no such beneficiary designation in effect, such person’s beneficiary shall be his or her estate and such person’s awards will be transferable by will or pursuant to laws of de scent and distribution applicable to such person.

              Article 15. Unfunded Program. The Program shall be unfunded and the Company shall not be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by awards under the Program. Neither the Company, its affiliates, the Program Administrators, nor the Board shall be deemed to be a trustee of any amounts to be paid under the Program nor shall anything contained in the Program or any action taken pursuant to its provisions create or be construed to create a fiduciary relationship between any such party and a Plan Participant or anyone claiming on his or her behalf. To the extent a Plan Participant or any other person acquires a right to receive payment pursuant to an award under the Program, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company.

Acceptance of an award shall be deemed to constitute consent to the jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Clark County, State of Nevada for all purposes in connection with any suit, action or other proceeding relating to such award, including the enforcement of any rights under the Program or any agreement or other document, and shall be deemed to constitute consent to any process or notice of motion in connection with such proceeding being served by certified or registered mail or personal service within or without the State of Nevada, provided a reasonable time for appearance is allowed.

              Article 17. Arbitration. Any disputes involving the Program will be resolved by arbitration in Clark County, Nevada before one (1) arbitrator in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

              Article 18. Program Administrators’ Right. Except as may be provided in an award agreement, the Program Administrators may, in their discretion, waive any restrictions or conditions applicable to, extend or modify any period (including any period in which an option or other exercisable award may be exercised, subject to the requirements of the Code) applicable to, or accelerate the vesting of, any award (other than the right to purchase shares pursuant to the Stock Purchase Plan).

              Article 19. Termination of Benefits Under Certain Conditions. The Program Administrators, in their sole and absolute discretion, may cancel any unexpired, unpaid or deferred award (other than a right to purchase shares pursuant to the Stock Purchase Plan) at any time if the Plan Participant is not in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Program or any award agreement or if the Plan Participant, whether or not he or she is currently employed by the Company or one of its subsidiaries, acts in a manner contrary to the best interests of the Company and its subsidiaries.

              Article 20. Conflicts in Program. In case of any conflict in the terms of the Program, or between the Program and an award agreement, the provisions in the Program which specifically grant such award shall control, and the provisions in the Program shall control over the provisions in any award agreement.

              Article 21. Information to Plan Participants. To the extent required by applicable law, the Company shall provide Plan Participants with the Company’s financial statements at least annually.

              Article 22. Company’s Right of Repurchase. In the event that a Plan Participant’s employment with or service to the Company is terminated for any reason or any of its subsidiaries, the Company shall have the right, unless waived by the Program Administrators at the time of any award or thereafter, to repurchase all, of the securities that such Plan Participant has purchased or has been awarded under the Program on the following terms:

                     (a) Upon a Plan Participant’s termination of employment with or service to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, the Company shall have the right for a period of ninety (90) days from the last day of

                     (b) The Company shall notify the Plan Participant within ninety (90) days of the last day of employment or service regarding the exercise of its right of repurchase.

                     (c) If the Company exercises its right of repurchase, the Company will purchase the securities within thirty (30) days of delivery of the notice of its election to purchase at the higher of (i) the Fair Market Value on the Plan Participant’s date of termination, or (ii) the Fair Market Value of such securities on the date of the Company’s notification of election to repurchase.

              Article 23. Lock-Up. To the extent requested by any managing underwriter to the Company, the Plan Participants shall enter into such market lock-up, escrow or other agreements as may be requested by such underwriter in connection with any public offering of the Company’s securities.

The terms and conditions of Deferral Options granted under the Deferral Option Plan may differ from one another as the Program Administrators shall, in their discretion, determine in each agreement (the “Deferral Option Agreement”). Unless any provision herein indicates to the contrary, this Deferral Option Plan shall be subject to the General Provisions of the Program, and terms used but not defined in this Deferral Option Plan shall have the meanings, if any, ascribed thereto in the General Provisions of the Program.

        Section 2. Duration of Deferral Options. Each Deferral Option and all rights thereunder granted pursuant to the terms of the Deferral Option Plan shall expire on the date determined by the Program Administrators as evidenced by the Deferral Option Agreement, but in no event shall any Deferral Option expire later than five (5) years from the date on which the Deferral Option is granted. In addition, each Deferral Option shall be subject to early termination as provided in the Deferral Option Plan.

        Section 3. Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Deferral Option Agreement, the Program Administrators may grant the right to receive a payment upon the exercise of a Deferral Option which reflects the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Deferral Option was granted to any person who is eligible to receive awards.

        Section 4. Payment at Exercise. Upon the settlement of a Deferral Option in accordance with the terms of the Deferral Option Agreement, the Plan Participant shall (subject to the terms and conditions of the Deferral Option Plan and Deferral Option Agreement) receive a payment equal to the Grant Price (as defined below) for the number of shares of the Deferral Option being exercised at that time.
