An Administrator's actions shall be binding on the Company, on each affected Employee, and on each other person directly or indirectly affected by such actions.

SECTION 7. TERMS OF OPTIONS 7.1 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ALL OPTIONS. (a) An Administrator, in its absolute discretion, shall grant Options under this Plan from time to time and shall have the right to grant new Options in exchange for outstanding Options. Options shall be granted to Employees selected by an Administrator, and an Administrator shall be under no obligation whatsoever to grant Options to all Employees or to grant all Options subject to the same terms and conditions. Each grant of a Stock Option shall be evidenced by a Stock Incentive Agreement. (b) The number of Shares as to which a Stock Option shall be granted, and whether and to what extent such Shares shall possess voting rights, shall be determined by an Administrator in its sole discretion, subject to the provisions of Section 3 as to the total number of shares available for grants under the Plan. (c) Each Stock Option shall be evidenced by a Stock Incentive Agreement executed by the Company and the Participant, which shall be in such form and contain such terms and conditions as an Administrator in its discretion may, subject to the provisions of the Plan, from time to time determine. (d) The date a Stock Option is granted shall be the date on which an Administrator has approved the terms and conditions of the Stock Incentive Agreement and has determined the recipient of the Stock Option and the number of Shares covered by the Stock Option and has taken all such other action necessary to complete the grant of the Stock Option. 7.2 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS. Each grant of an Option shall be evidenced by a Stock Incentive Agreement which shall: (i) specify that the Option is a non-qualified incentive stock option; and (ii) incorporate such other terms and conditions as an Administrator, acting in its absolute discretion, deems consistent with the terms of this Plan, including (without limitation) a restriction on the number of Shares subject to the Option which first become exercisable or subject to surrender during any calendar year. In determining Employee(s) to whom an Option shall be granted and the number of Shares to be covered by such Option, an Administrator may take into account the recommendations of the President of the Company and its other officers, the duties of the Employee, the present and potential contributions of the Employee to the success of the Company, the anticipated number of years of service remaining before the attainment by the Employee of retirement age, and other factors deemed relevant by an Administrator, in its sole discretion, in connection with accomplishing the purpose of this Plan; provided, however, that the Board may limit the discretion of an Administrator in making such decisions if it so chooses. An Employee who has been granted an Option to purchase Shares, whether under this Plan or otherwise, may be granted one or more additional Options. (a) Exercise Price. Subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 12 and the other provisions of this Section, the Exercise Price shall be determined by the Administrator authorizing such grant and shall be set forth in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement. The Exercise Price for each Share of an Option shall be no less than the minimum price required by applicable state law, or by the Company's governing instrument, or $0.01, whichever price is greater. (b) Option Term. Each Option granted under this Plan shall be exercisable in whole or in part at such time or times as set forth in the related Stock Incentive Agreement, but no Stock Incentive Agreement shall: (i) make an Option exercisable before the date such Option is granted; or (ii) make an Option exercisable after the earlier of the: (A) the date such Option is exercised in full, or (B) the date which is the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date such Option is granted. A Stock Incentive Agreement may provide for the exercise of an Option after the employment of an Employee has terminated for any reason whatsoever, including death or disability. (c) Payment. Payment for all shares of Stock purchased pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be made in cash or, if the Stock Incentive Agreement provides, by delivery to the Company of a number of Shares which have been owned by the holder for at least six (6) months prior to the date of exercise having an aggregate Fair Market Value of not less than the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Shares the Participant intends to purchase upon exercise of the Option on the date of delivery. In addition, the Stock Incentive Agreement may provide for cashless exercise through a brokerage transaction following registration of the Company's equity securities under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Except as provided in subparagraph (f) below, payment shall be made at the time that the Option or any part thereof is exercised, and no Shares shall be issued or delivered upon exercise of an Option until full payment has been made by the Participant. The holder of an Option, as such, shall have none of the rights of a stockholder. Notwithstanding the above, and in the sole discretion of an Administrator, an Option may be exercised as to a portion or all (as determined by an Administrator) of the number of Shares specified in the Stock Incentive Agreement by delivery to the Company of a promissory note, such promissory note to be executed by the Participant and which shall include, with such other terms and conditions as an Administrator shall determine, provisions in a form approved by an Administrator under which: (i) the balance of the aggregate purchase price shall be payable in equal installments over such period and shall bear interest at such rate (which shall not be less than the prime bank loan rate as determined by an Administrator) as an Administrator shall approve, and (ii) the Participant shall be personally liable for payment of the unpaid principal balance and all accrued but unpaid interest. (d) Conditions to Exercise of an Option. Each Option granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time or times, or upon the occurrence of such event or events, and in such amounts, as an Administrator shall specify in the Stock Incentive Agreement; provided, however, that subsequent to the grant of an Option, an Administrator, at any time before complete termination of such Option, may accelerate the time or times at which such Option may be exercised in whole or in part. (e) Special Provisions for Certain Substitute Options. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, any Option in substitution for a stock option previously issued by another entity, which substitution occurs in connection with a transaction to which Code Section 424(a) is applicable, may provide for an exercise price computed in accordance with such Code Section and the regulations thereunder and may contain such other terms and conditions as an Administrator may prescribe to cause such substitute Option to contain as nearly as possible the same terms and conditions (including the applicable vesting and termination provisions) as those contained in the previously issued stock option being replaced thereby. 7.3 [Reserved] 7.4 [Reserved] SECTION 8. NON-TRANSFERABILITY Unless determined otherwise by an Administrator, a Stock Option 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 Optionee, only by the Optionee. An Administrator shall have the authority and discretion to make a Stock Option grant assignable by a Participant to such Participant's family members, a trust for such Participant's benefit or a trust for the benefit of such Participant's family members. Provided, however, that no unvested portion of a Stock Option shall be assignable in whole or in part. If an Administrator makes a Stock Option assignable, such a Stock Option shall contain such additional terms and limitations as the Administrator deems appropriate. SECTION 9. SURRENDER OF OPTIONS 9.1 GENERAL RULE. An Administrator, acting in its absolute discretion, may incorporate a provision in a Stock Incentive Agreement to allow an Employee to surrender his or her Option in whole or in part in lieu of the exercise in whole or in part of that Option on any date that: (a) the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Option exceeds the Exercise Price for such Shares, and (b) the Option to purchase such Shares is otherwise exercisable. 9.2 PROCEDURE. The surrender of an Option in whole or in part shall be effected by the delivery of the Stock Incentive Agreement to an Administrator, together with a statement signed by the Participant which specifies the number of Shares ("Surrendered Shares") as to which the Participant surrenders his or her Option and how he or she desires payment be made for such Surrendered Shares. 9.3 PAYMENT. A Participant in exchange for his or her Surrendered Shares shall receive a payment in cash or in Shares, or in a combination of cash and Shares, equal in amount on the date such surrender is effected to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Surrendered Shares on such date over the Exercise Price for the Surrendered Shares. An Administrator, acting in its absolute discretion, can approve or disapprove a Participant's request for payment in whole or in part in cash and can make that payment in cash or in such combination of cash and Shares as an Administrator deems appropriate. A request for payment only in Shares shall be approved and made in Shares to the extent payment can be made in whole shares of Shares and (at an Administrator's discretion) in cash in lieu of any fractional Shares. 9.4 RESTRICTIONS. Any Stock Incentive Agreement which incorporates a provision to allow a Participant to surrender his or her Option in whole or in part also shall incorporate such additional restrictions on the exercise or surrender of such Option as an Administrator deems necessary to satisfy the conditions to the exemption under Rule 16b-3 (or any successor exemption) to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. SECTION 10. SECURITIES REGULATION Each Stock Incentive Agreement may provide that, upon the receipt of Shares as a result of the surrender or exercise of a Stock Option, the Participant shall, if so requested by the Company, hold such Shares for investment and not with a view to resell or distribute to the public and, if so requested by the Company, shall deliver to the Company a written statement satisfactory to the Company to that effect. Each Stock Incentive Agreement may also provide that, if so requested by the Company, the Participant shall make a written representation to the Company that he or she will not sell or offer to sell any of such Shares unless a registration statement shall be in effect with respect to such Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("1933 Act"), and any applicable state securities law or, unless he or she shall have furnished to the Company an opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, of legal counsel acceptable to the Company, that such registration is not required. Certificates representing the Shares transferred upon the exercise or surrender of a Stock Option granted under this Plan may at the discretion of the Company bear a legend to the effect that such Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities law and that such Shares may not be sold or offered for sale in the absence of an effective registration statement as to such Shares under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities law or an opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, of legal counsel acceptable to the Company, that such registration is not required. SECTION 11. LIFE OF PLAN No Stock Option shall be granted under this Plan on or after the earlier of: (a) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the effective date of this Plan (as determined under Section 4 of this Plan), in which event this Plan otherwise thereafter shall continue in effect until all outstanding Options have been surrendered or exercised in full or no longer are exercisable, or (b) the date on which all of the Shares reserved under Section 3 of this Plan have (as a result of the surrender or exercise of Options granted under this Plan) been issued or no longer are available for use under this Plan, in which event this Plan also shall terminate on such date. SECTION 12. ADJUSTMENT The number of Shares reserved under Section 3 of this Plan, and the number of Shares subject to Options granted under this Plan, and the Exercise Price of any Options, shall be adjusted by an Administrator in an equitable manner to reflect any change in the capitalization of the Company, including, but not limited to, such changes as stock dividends or stock splits. Furthermore, an Administrator shall have the right to adjust (in a manner which satisfies the requirements of Code Section 424(a)) the number of Shares reserved under Section 3, and the number of Shares subject to Options granted under this Plan, and the Exercise Price of any Options in the event of any corporate transaction described in Code Section 424(a) which provides for the substitution or assumption of such Options. If any adjustment under this Section creates a fractional Share or a right to acquire a fractional Share, such fractional Share shall be disregarded, and the number of Shares reserved under this Plan and the number subject to any Options granted under this Plan shall be the next lower number of Shares, rounding all fractions downward. An adjustment made under this Section by an Administrator shall be conclusive and binding on all affected persons and, further, shall not constitute an increase in the number of Shares reserved under Section 3. SECTION 13. SALE OR MERGER 13.1 SALE OR MERGER. In the event that the Company agrees to sell substantially all of its assets for another security, cash or other property, or any combination of another security, cash or other property, or agrees to any merger, consolidation, reorganization, division or other transaction in which Shares are converted into another security, cash or other property or into the right to receive another security, cash or other property, then, at the sole and complete discretion of the Company, either of the following will occur: (1) the Company and the Successor in any Transaction may agree that the Successor or its Parent or Subsidiary will assume all Options outstanding hereunder, or substitute or exchange outstanding Options for an equivalent interest or right in the Successor or its Parent or Subsidiary; provided, however, that to the extent the Company and Successor provide for an assumption or exchange of outstanding Options, then (i) the agreement for assumption or exchange must provide that, for each Share subject to the Option, the holder of the Option shall be entitled to receive the consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property) payable upon closing of the Transaction to a holder of one Share held on the effective date of the Transaction (the "Transaction Closing Date"), (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); and (ii) the aggregate exercise price of the Option shall remain unchanged; or (2) the Company may unilaterally cancel and terminate each outstanding Option on the Transaction Closing Date in exchange for the cash or whole Shares which each Participant otherwise would receive if he or she had the right to surrender or exercise his or her outstanding Option (to the extent vested on the Transaction Closing Date) and he or she exercised that right on a date fixed by the Board which comes before the Transaction Closing Date; to the extent unvested, all outstanding Options shall immediately terminate on the Transaction Closing Date and be of no further force and effect unless (i) the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement provides for acceleration of vesting upon the occurrence of such an event, or (ii) the Board agrees (in its sole discretion) to accelerate the vesting of any unvested portion of the Option; provided, however, that the Successor shall have the contingent obligation set forth in Section 13.2 below. 13.2 CONTINGENT OBLIGATIONS OF A SUCCESSOR. Upon the occurrence of a Termination of Employment Without Cause of any optionee within twelve (12) months following a Change of Control, the portion of any and all Options (or any options exchanged therefor) held by such optionee that were unvested immediately prior to the Change of Control shall be deemed to have been accelerated, and immediately vested at the time of the Change of Control, and (i) to the extent such Option remains outstanding at the time of the Termination of Employment Without Cause, such Option shall be exercisable by the optionee for a period of 90 days following the Termination of Employment Without Cause; (ii) to the extent exchanged for a Successor option, the Successor option shall be exercisable for a period of 90 days following the Termination of Employment Without Cause; and (iii) to the extent the unvested portion of the Option was canceled unilaterally pursuant to Section 13.1 (b), the Option shall be deemed to have been redeemed by the Successor to the full extent of the unvested portion and the Successor shall immediately owe the optionee an amount equal to the termination price per share paid for the vested portion multiplied times the number of Shares included in the unvested portion that were accelerated hereby. SECTION 14. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION This Plan may be amended by the Board from time to time to the extent that the Board deems necessary or appropriate. The Board also may suspend the granting of Options under this Plan at any time and may terminate this Plan at any time; provided, however, the Company shall not have the right to modify, amend or cancel any Options granted before such suspension or termination unless: (i) the Participant consents in writing to such modification, amendment or cancellation, or (ii) there is a dissolution or liquidation of the Company or a transaction described in Section 12 or Section 13. The obligations of a Successor under Section 13 hereof shall survive the termination of this Plan pursuant to this Section 14. SECTION 15. MISCELLANEOUS 15.1 SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder of the Company as a result of the grant of a Stock Option to him or to her under this Plan or his or her exercise or surrender of such Stock Option pending the actual delivery of Shares subject to such Stock Option to such Participant. 15.2 NO GUARANTEE OF CONTINUED RELATIONSHIP. The grant of a Stock Option to a Participant under this Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment and shall not confer on a Participant any rights upon his or her termination of employment or relationship with the Company in addition to those rights, if any, expressly set forth in the Stock Incentive Agreement which evidences his or her Stock Option. 15.3 WITHHOLDING. The exercise or surrender of any Stock Option granted under this Plan shall constitute a Participant's full and complete consent to whatever action an Administrator directs to satisfy the federal and state tax withholding requirements, if any, which an Administrator in its discretion deems applicable to such exercise or surrender. 15.4 TRANSFER. The transfer of an Employee between or among the Company, a Subsidiary or a Parent shall not be treated as a termination of his or her employment under this Plan. 15.5 CONSTRUCTION. This Plan shall be construed under the laws of the State of Florida. SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE IMRGLOBAL CORP. 1999 EMPLOYEE STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN WHEREAS, CGI Group Inc.
