The form of the release will be provided to the Eligible Employee not later than five (5) days following the Severance Date.

Such persons shall exercise no discretionary authority or discretionary control respecting the management of the Plan. All reasonable expenses thereof shall be borne by the Company.

The Plan may be terminated or amended by the Board at any time; provided, however, that during the one year period following a Change in Control, (a) the Plan may not be terminated and (b) the Plan may not be amended if such amendment would in any manner be adverse to the interests of any Eligible Employee. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) any action taken by the Company or the Plan Administrator to cause an Eligible Employee to no longer be designated as an Eligible Employee or to

Page 6 of 10

decrease the benefits under the Plan for which an Eligible Employee is eligible, and (b) any amendment to this Section 4 following the occurrence of a Change in Control shall be treated as an amendment to the Plan which is adverse to the interests of any Eligible Employee.

SECTION 5. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

5.1Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, no right or interest of any Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise, including without limitation by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge or in any manner; no attempted assignment or transfer thereof shall be effective; and no right or interest of any Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be liable for, or subject to, any obligation or liability of such Eligible Employee. When a payment is due under this Plan to a severed employee who is unable to care for his or her affairs, payment may be made directly to his or her legal guardian or personal representative.

5.2If the Company or any subsidiary thereof is obligated by law to pay severance pay, a termination indemnity, notice pay, or the like, or if the Company or any subsidiary thereof is obligated by law to provide advance notice of separation (“Notice Period”), then any severance pay hereunder shall be reduced (including to zero) by the amount of any such severance pay, termination indemnity, notice pay or the like, as applicable, and by the amount of any compensation received during any Notice Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the severance pay hereunder shall not be duplicative of severance pay, termination indemnity, notice pay, compensation received during any Notice Period or the like, as applicable, payable under applicable law.

5.3Neither the establishment of the Plan, nor any modification thereof, nor the creation of any fund, trust or account, nor the payment of any benefits shall be construed as giving any Eligible Employee, or any person whomsoever, the right to be retained in the service of the Company or any subsidiary thereof, and all Eligible Employees shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Plan had never been adopted. Nothing in this Plan will prevent or limit an Eligible Employee’s continuing or future participation in any plan, contract, agreement, practice, policy or program provided by the Company or any Affiliate thereof for which the Eligible Employee may qualify (an “Other Arrangement”), nor will anything in this Plan limit or otherwise affect any rights the Eligible Employee may have under any Other Arrangement with the Company or any Affiliate thereof, provided that the benefits received under this Plan and an Other Arrangement shall not be duplicative.

5.4If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included.

5.5This Plan shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the parties, including each Eligible Employee, present and future, and any successor to the Company. If a severed employee

Page 7 of 10

shall die while any amount would still be payable to such severed employee hereunder if the severed employee had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Plan to the executor, personal representative or administrators of the severed employee’s estate.

5.6The headings and captions herein are provided for reference and convenience only, shall not be considered part of the Plan, and shall not be employed in the construction of the Plan.

5.7The Plan shall not be required to be funded unless such funding is authorized by the Board. Regardless of whether the Plan is funded, no Eligible Employee shall have any right to, or interest in, any assets of any Company which may be applied by the Company to the payment of benefits or other rights under this Plan.

5.8Any notice or other communication required or permitted pursuant to the terms hereof shall be provided in writing and shall have been duly given when delivered or mailed by United States Mail, first class, postage prepaid, addressed to the intended recipient at his, her or its last known address.

5.9This Plan shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Delaware to the extent not preempted by federal law, which shall otherwise control.

5.10The Company and any of its Affiliates may deduct and withhold from any amounts payable under this Plan such federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes as are required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. All benefits hereunder shall be reduced by applicable withholding and shall be subject to applicable tax reporting, as determined by the Plan Administrator.

5.11 The Plan, as a “severance pay arrangement” within the meaning of Section 3(2)(B)(i) of ERISA, is intended to be excepted from the definitions of “employee pension benefit plan” and “pension plan” set forth under section 3(2) of ERISA, and is intended to meet the descriptive requirements of a plan constituting a “severance pay plan” within the meaning of regulations published by the Secretary of Labor at Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations §2510.3-2(b).

5.12The provisions of the Plan shall apply to Eligible Employees outside the United States, provided, however, that the Plan Administrator may make such changes to the terms of the Plan (A) to the extent necessary to comply with applicable local law and (B) to reduce the amounts payable hereunder to the extent of any statutory or other severance due to the Eligible Employee in the applicable jurisdiction.

5.13Section 409A.

(a)  The payments and benefits under this Plan are intended to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Plan shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Plan Administrator

Page 8 of 10

determines that any amounts payable hereunder will be immediately taxable to any Eligible Employee under Section 409A, the Plan Administrator may (without any obligation to do so or to indemnify the Eligible Employee for failure to do so) (A) adopt such amendments to this Plan or adopt such other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect) that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided by this Plan or the economic benefits of this Plan and (B) take such other actions it determines to be necessary or appropriate to exempt the amounts payable hereunder from Section 409A or to comply with the requirements of Section 409A and thereby avoid the application of penalty taxes thereunder.

(b)  Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, any compensation or benefits payable under this Plan upon an Eligible Employee’s termination of employment shall be payable only upon the Eligible Employee’s “separation from service” with the Company within the meaning of Section 409A (a “Separation from Service”) and, except as provided below, any such compensation or benefits shall not be paid, or, in the case of installments, shall not commence payment, until the 60th day following the Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service (the “First Payment Date”). Any installment payments that would have been made to an Eligible Employee during the 60 day period immediately following the Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service but for the preceding sentence shall be paid to the Eligible Employee on the First Payment Date and the remaining payments shall be made as provided in this Plan.

(c)  Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, if an Eligible Employee is deemed by the Company at the time of the Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which the Eligible Employee is entitled under this Plan is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A, such portion of the Eligible Employee’s benefits will not be provided to the Eligible Employee prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service or (ii) the date of the Eligible Employee’s death. As promptly as possible following the expiration of the applicable Section 409A period, all payments and benefits deferred pursuant to the preceding sentence will be paid in a lump sum to an Eligible Employee (or the Eligible Employee’s estate), and any remaining payments due to the Eligible Employee under this Plan will be paid as otherwise provided herein.

(d)  An Eligible Employee’s right to receive any installment payments under this Plan shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each such installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment as permitted under Section 409A.

5.14Section 280G

(a)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Plan, in the event that any payment or benefit by the Company or otherwise to or for the benefit of an

Page 9 of 10

Eligible Employee, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Plan (all such payments and benefits, including the payments and benefits under Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 of the Plan, being hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”), would be subject (in whole or in part) to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Total Payments shall be reduced (in the order provided in subsection (b) below) to the minimum extent necessary to avoid the imposition of the Excise Tax on the Total Payments, but only if (i) the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income and employment taxes on such reduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced Total Payments), is greater than or equal to (ii) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income and employment taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of the Excise Tax to which the Eligible Employee would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments).

(b)  The Total Payments shall be reduced in the following order: (i) reduction on a pro-rata basis of any cash severance payments that are exempt from Section 409A, (ii) reduction on a pro-rata basis of any non-cash severance payments or benefits that are exempt from Section 409A, and (iii) reduction of any payments or benefits otherwise payable to the Eligible Employee on a pro-rata basis or such other manner that complies with Section 409A; provided, in case of clauses (ii) and (iii), that reduction of any payments attributable to the acceleration of vesting of Company equity awards shall be first applied to Company equity awards that would otherwise vest last in time.

(c)  All determinations regarding the application of this Section 5.13 shall be made by an accounting firm or consulting group with experience in performing calculations regarding the applicability of Section 280G of the Code and the Excise Tax selected by the Company (the “Independent Advisors”). For purposes of determinations, no portion of the Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of the Independent Advisors, (i) does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) or (ii) constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess of the “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) allocable to such reasonable compensation. The costs of obtaining such determination and all related fees and expenses (including related fees and expenses incurred in any later audit) shall be borne by the Company.

(d)  In the event it is later determined that a greater reduction in the Total Payments should have been made to implement the objective and intent of this Section 5.13, the excess amount shall be returned promptly by the Eligible Employee to the Company.
