termination, or within such longer period as the Board may fix, exercise
the Option to the extent such Option was exercisable by the Participant
on the date of termination of his employment or service, or to the extent
otherwise specified by the Board (which may so specify after the date of
the termination but before expiration of the Option) provided the date of
exercise is in no event after the expiration of the term of the Option.
(4) EVENTS NOT DEEMED TERMINATIONS: Unless otherwise provided in a
Participant's employment agreement, the service relationship shall not be
considered interrupted in the case of (i) a Participant who intends to
continue to provide services as a director, employee, consultant or advisor
to the Company or an Affiliate; (ii) sick leave; (iii) military leave; (iv)
any other leave of absence approved by the Board, provided such leave is
--------
for a period of not more than 90 days, unless reemployment upon the
expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute, or unless
provided otherwise pursuant to formal policy adopted from time to time by
the Company and issued and promulgated to employees in writing; or (v) in
the case of transfer between locations of the Company or between the
Company or its Affiliates. In the case of any employee on an approved
leave of absence, the Board may make such provisions respecting suspension
of vesting of the Option while on leave from the employ of the Company or
an Affiliate as it may deem appropriate, except that in no event shall an
Option be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in the
Option.
(e) Unless otherwise provided in a Participant's employment agreement, if
any Participant's employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other
than for Misconduct or, if applicable, by Constructive Termination, within one
year after a Change of Control has occurred, then all Options held by such
Participant shall become fully vested for exercise upon the date of termination,
irrespective of the vesting provisions of the Participant's Option agreement.
For purposes of this subsection (e), the term "Change of Control" shall have the
meaning assigned by this Plan, unless a different meaning is defined in an
individual Participant's Option agreement or employment agreement.
(f) Options may also contain such other provisions, which shall not be
inconsistent with any of the foregoing terms, as the Board or its delegate shall
deem appropriate.
(g) The Board may modify, extend or renew outstanding Options and
authorize the grant of new Options in substitution therefor; provided that any
--------
such action may not, without the written consent of a Participant, impair any
such Participant's rights under any Option previously granted.
