(a) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion:

(i) to determine the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock;

(ii) to select the persons to whom Awards may be granted hereunder prior to the consummation of the Merger with the grant of such Award effective upon consummation of the Merger and subject to such person commencing employment with the Company or its Subsidiary;

(iii) to determine whether and to what extent Awards are granted hereunder;

(iv) to determine the number of Shares to be covered by each Award granted hereunder;

(v) to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan;

(vi) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Options may be exercised, any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the shares of Common Stock relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;

(vii) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards;

(viii) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established for the purpose of qualifying for preferred tax treatment under foreign tax laws;

(ix) to modify or amend each Award (subject to Section 8(c) and Section 14(b) of the Plan), including the discretionary authority to extend the post-termination exercisability period of Options longer than is otherwise provided for in the Plan;

- 4 -

(x) to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award previously granted by the Administrator;

(xi) to allow Participants to satisfy all or part of their withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company or its Subsidiary, as the case may be, withhold from the Shares or cash to be issued upon exercise of an Award that number of Shares or cash having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld (but no more). The Fair Market Value of any Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by a Participant to have Shares or cash withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable;

(xii) to determine the terms and restrictions applicable to Awards;

(xiii) to determine whether Awards (other than Options) will be adjusted for Dividend Equivalents;

(xiv) to 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 Shares issued as a result of or under an Award, including without limitation, (A) restrictions under an insider trading policy, and (B) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers; and

(xv) to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Plan.

(b) Effect of Administrator’s Decision. The Administrator’s decisions, determinations and interpretations shall be final and binding on all Participants and any other holders of Awards.

5. Eligibility. Awards may be granted only to persons who are employees of CCPU or one of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Merger and shall be granted as an inducement material to such individual’s entering into employment with the Company or its Subsidiary upon consummation of the Merger. Awards shall not become effective until consummation of the Merger and the Participant’s commencement of employment with the Company or its Subsidiary. No Award shall be granted hereunder after consummation of the Merger, and no Award shall be granted hereunder to any person who is an Employee of, or who is rendering services to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Merger.

6. No Employment Rights. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon a Participant any right with respect to commencing or continuing the Participant’s employment with CCPU or its Subsidiaries or with the Company or its Subsidiaries or to require the consummation of the Merger, nor shall they interfere in any way with the Participant’s right, CCPU’s or its Subsidiaries’ right or the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ right, as the case may be, to terminate such employment at any time, with or without cause or notice.

- 5 -

7. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective on the Effective Date. The Plan shall continue in effect for a term of 10 years after the Effective Date.

8. Stock Options.

(a) Term. The term of each Option shall be stated in the Notice of Grant; provided, however, that the term shall be no longer than 7 years from the date of grant.

(b) Option Exercise Price. The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be determined by the Administrator and shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(c) No Repricing. Subject to Section 12, the exercise price for an Option may not be reduced. This shall include, without limitation, a repricing of the Option as well as an Option exchange program whereby the Participant agrees to cancel an existing Option in exchange for an Option.

(d) Waiting Period and Exercise Dates. At the time an Option is granted, the Administrator shall fix the period within which the Option may be exercised and shall determine any conditions which must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised. In so doing, the Administrator may specify that an Option may not be exercised until the completion of a service period or until performance milestones are satisfied.

(e) Form of Consideration. The Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. Subject to Applicable Laws, such consideration may consist entirely of:

(i) cash;

(ii) check;

(iii) other Shares which (A) in the case of Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option, have been owned by the Participant for more than six months on the date of surrender, and (B) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised;

(iv) delivery of a properly executed exercise notice together with such other documentation as the Administrator and the broker, if applicable, shall require to effect an exercise of the Option and delivery to the Company of the sale proceeds required to pay the exercise price;

(v) subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code, a reduction in the amount of any Company liability to the Participant;

- 6 -

(vi) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or

(vii) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws; provided, however, that in no case will loans be permitted as consideration for exercising an Option hereunder.

(f) Exercise of Option; Rights as a Stockholder. Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Option Agreement.

An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

An Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Option Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Option Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be issued in the name of the Participant. Until the stock certificate evidencing such Shares is issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the optioned stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan.

Exercising an Option in any manner shall decrease the number of Shares thereafter available for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.

(g) Termination of Employment Relationship. If a Participant’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries terminates, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for three months following the Participant’s termination. If, on the date of termination, the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

- 7 -

(h) Disability. If a Participant’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries terminates as a result of the Participant’s Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option for 12 months following the Participant’s termination (but in no event may the Option be exercised later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). If, on the date of termination, the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

(i) Death of Participant. If a Participant dies while an Employee, the Option may be exercised for 12 months following the Participant’s death (but in no event may the Option be exercised later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement) by the personal representative of the Participant’s estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

9. Restricted Stock.

(a) Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Restricted Stock may be granted to eligible persons at any time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine (i) the number of Shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award granted to any Participant, and (ii) the conditions that must be satisfied, which typically will be based principally or solely on continued provision of services but may include a performance-based component, upon which is conditioned the grant, vesting or issuance of Restricted Stock. Restricted Stock may be granted in the form of restricted stock units that are not issued until the vesting conditions are satisfied. Until the Shares are issued, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the units to acquire Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, Awards of restricted stock units will be settled no later than two and one-half months after the end of the calendar year in which such Award vests.

(b) Other Terms. The Administrator, subject to the provisions of the Plan, shall have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions of Restricted Stock granted under the Plan. Restricted Stock grants shall be subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions determined by the Administrator at the time the stock or the restricted stock unit is awarded. The Administrator may require the recipient to sign a Restricted Stock Award agreement as a condition of the Award. Any certificates representing the Shares of Restricted Stock awarded shall bear such legends as shall be determined by the Administrator.

- 8 -

(c) Restricted Stock Award Agreement. Each Restricted Stock grant shall be evidenced by an agreement that shall specify the purchase price (if any) and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine; provided, however, if the Restricted Stock grant has a purchase price, such purchase price must be paid no more than 10 years following the date of grant

10. Leaves of Absence. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise or except as otherwise required by Applicable Laws, vesting of Awards granted hereunder shall continue during a medical, family or military leave of absence, whether paid or unpaid, and vesting of Awards shall be suspended during any other unpaid leave of absence.

11. Non-Transferability of Awards. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the recipient, only by the recipient. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, such Award shall contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate; provided, however, no Option shall in any event be transferable for value.

12. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization.

(a) Adjustments. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each outstanding Award, the number of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation, forfeiture, repurchase or expiration of an Award, as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each such outstanding Award shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an Award.

(b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for a Participant to have the right to exercise his or her Option until 10 calendar days prior to such transaction as to all of the Awarded Stock covered thereby, including Shares as to which the Award would not otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the Administrator may provide that any Company repurchase option or forfeiture rights applicable to any Award shall lapse 100%, and that any Award vesting shall accelerate 100%, provided the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

- 9 -

(c) Mergers, Reorganizations, Etc. In the event of a merger, consolidation, plan of exchange, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation to which the Company or its Subsidiary is a party following the Merger or a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets following the Merger (each, a “Transaction”), the Committee shall, in its sole discretion and to the extent possible under the structure of the Transaction, select one of the following alternatives for treating outstanding Awards under the Plan:

(i) Outstanding Awards shall remain in effect in accordance with their terms.

(ii) Each outstanding Award shall be assumed or an equivalent Award shall be substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. The amount, type of securities subject thereto and, if applicable, exercise price of the assumed or substituted Awards shall be determined by the Committee, taking into account the relative values of the companies involved in the Transaction and the exchange ratio, if any, used in determining shares of the successor corporation, or Parent or Subsidiary thereof, to be issued to holders of Shares. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the assumed or substituted Awards shall be vested only to the extent that the vesting requirements relating to Awards granted hereunder have been satisfied.

(iii) The Committee shall provide a 30 calendar-day period prior to the consummation of the Transaction during which outstanding Options may be exercised to the extent then exercisable, and upon the expiration of such 30 calendar-day period, all unexercised Options shall immediately terminate. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the exercisability of Options so that they are exercisable in full during such 30 calendar-day period. The Committee may also, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of Restricted Stock Awards.

13. Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Award shall be the date, upon consummation of the Merger, when the Participant commences employment with the Company or its Subsidiary and with respect to an Option Award, its exercise price is set, consistent with Applicable Laws and applicable financial accounting rules. Notice of the determination shall be provided to each Participant within a reasonable time after the date of grant. Promptly following the date of grant of any Award hereunder, the Company shall disclose in a press release in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4) the material terms of the Awards, the number of Employees and the number of Shares involved.

- 10 -

14. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

(a) Amendment and Termination. The Board or the Committee may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan; provided, however, the Board or the Committee may not make any amendment that would require approval by the Company’s stockholders under Applicable Laws. With respect to any Participant who is resident outside of the United States, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, amend or vary the terms of the Plan in order to conform such terms with the requirements of local law, to meet the goals and objectives of the Plan, and may, in its sole discretion, establish administrative rules, regulations and procedures to facilitate the operation of the Plan in such non-U.S. jurisdictions. The Administrator may, where it deems appropriate in its sole discretion, establish one or more sub-plans of the Plan for these purposes.

(b) Effect of Amendment or Termination. Except as otherwise provided in Section 19, no amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan shall impair the rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing (or electronic format) and signed by the Participant and the Company.

15. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

(a) Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to an Award unless the exercise of the Award or the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

(b) Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise or receipt of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising or receiving such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise or receipt that the Shares are being purchased or held only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.

16. Liability of Company.

(a) Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

(b) Grants Exceeding Allocated Shares or Not in Compliance with Nasdaq Rules. If the Awarded Stock covered by an Award exceeds, as of the date of grant, the number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan or such grant was not made in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4), such Award shall be void with respect to such excess Awarded Stock.

17. Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

- 11 -

18. Governing Law. The Plan and all Award Agreements entered into under the Plan shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions.

19. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Awards granted under the Plan are intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that the Administrator determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A of the Code, it is the intent of the parties to the applicable Award Agreement that the Plan incorporate the terms and conditions necessary to avoid the consequences specified in Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code and that such Award Agreement and the terms of the Plan as applicable to such Award be interpreted and construed in compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to assume any increased economic burden in connection therewith. Although the Company and the Administrator intend to administer the Plan so that it will comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, neither the Company nor the Administrator represents or warrants that the Plan will comply with Section 409A of the Code or any other provision of federal, state, local, or non-United States law. Neither the Company, its Subsidiaries, nor their respective directors, officers, employees or advisers shall be liable to any Participant (or any other individual claiming a benefit through any Participant) for any tax, interest, or penalties the Participant may owe as a result of compensation paid under the Plan, and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall have no obligation to indemnify or otherwise protect the Participant from the obligation to pay any taxes pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.
