NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

NOTE 1. OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Trimble Navigation Limited (“we,” “Trimble” or the “Company”), incorporated in California in 1981, provides positioning product solutions to commercial and government users in a large number of markets. These markets include surveying, construction, agriculture, urban and resource management, military, transportation and telecommunications.

Trimble has a 52-53 week fiscal year, ending on the Friday nearest to December 31, which for fiscal 2005 was December 30. The second fiscal quarters of 2006 and 2005 ended on June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005, respectively. Fiscal 2006 and 2005 are 52-week years. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to its fiscal year and fiscal periods.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of Trimble and its subsidiaries. Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

The accompanying financial data as of June 30, 2006 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005 has been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Trimble’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of June 30, 2006, results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005, as applicable, have been made. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in its condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the company in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates. Trimble’s critical accounting policies are those that affect its financial statements materially and involve difficult, subjective or complex judgments by management. In the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company changed its critical accounting policy related to stock-based compensation. See Note 2 to the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. For more information on the Company’s significant accounting principles, refer to Trimble’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 applies to all tax positions related to income taxes subject to FASB Statement 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  Under FIN 48 a company would recognize the benefit from a tax position only if it is more-likely-than-not that the position would be sustained upon audit based solely on the technical merits of the tax position. FIN 48 clarifies how a company would measure the income tax benefits from the tax positions that are recognized, provides guidance as to the timing of the derecognition of previously recognized tax benefits and describes the methods for classifying and disclosing the liabilities within the financial statements for any unrecognized tax benefits.    FIN 48 also addresses when a company should record interest and penalties related to tax positions and how the interest and penalties may be classified within the income statement and presented in the balance sheet.  FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  For Trimble, FIN 48 will be effective for our 2007 fiscal year.  Differences between the amounts recognized in the statements of operations prior to and after the adoption of FIN 48 would be accounted for as a cumulative effect adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings.    The Company is currently evaluating FIN 48 and its possible impacts on the Company’s financial statements.   Upon adoption, there is a possibility that the cumulative effect would result in a charge or benefit to the beginning balance of retained earnings.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Standard of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) requires employee stock options and rights to purchase shares under stock participation plans to be accounted for under the fair value method, and eliminates the ability to account for these instruments under the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25, and allowed under the original provisions of SFAS 123.

Trimble has adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective method which requires the adoption of the accounting standard for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. As a result, the Company’s financial statements for fiscal periods after December 30, 2005 include stock-based compensation expenses that are not comparable to financial statements of fiscal periods prior to December 30, 2005. SFAS 123(R) requires stock-based compensation to be estimated using the fair value on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is expected to vest is recognized as expense over the related employees’ requisite service periods in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based compensation to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25 as allowed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”). Under the intrinsic value method, no stock-based compensation expense had been recognized in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income because the exercise price of the Company’s stock options granted to employees and directors equaled the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant.

 
See Note 3 to the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

NOTE 3. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (“SFAS 123”), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" and “Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148” (“SFAS 148”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure,” Trimble applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (“APB 25”) and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans and stock purchase plan prior to fiscal 2006. Accordingly, Trimble did not recognize compensation cost for stock-based compensation prior to fiscal 2006. For periods subsequent to fiscal 2005, Trimble recognized expense related to stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS 123(R)

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense, net of tax, related to employee stock-based compensation included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in accordance with SFAS 123(R) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005.

(2) Includes compensation expense for employee stock purchase plan for the three and six months ended July 1, 2005 and reduction of tax benefits for stock-based compensation other than non-qualified stock options which were not included in the pro forma disclosure of Trimble’s second quarter of fiscal 2005 Form 10-Q. Tax benefit relates to non-qualified options only as allowed by the applicable tax requirements using the statutory tax rate as of the second quarter of fiscal 2005.


OPTIONS

Stock option expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is expected to vest during the period. Stock option expense recognized in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 included compensation expense for stock options granted prior to, but not yet vested as of December 30, 2005 based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and compensation expense for the stock options granted subsequent to December 30, 2005 based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). In conjunction with the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company changed its method of attributing the value of stock option to expense from the accelerated multiple-option approach to the straight-line single option method. Compensation expense for all stock options granted on or prior to December 30, 2005 will continue to be recognized using the accelerated multiple-option approach while compensation expense for all stock options granted subsequent to December 30, 2005 is recognized using the straight-line single-option method. SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. In the Company’s pro forma information required under SFAS 123 for the periods prior to fiscal 2006, the Company accounted for forfeitures as they occurred.

Stock Option Plans

Trimble issues new shares upon exercises of stock options related to the following plans.

2002 Stock Plan

In 2002, Trimble’s Board of Directors adopted the 2002 Stock Plan (“2002 Plan”). The 2002 Plan, as amended to date and approved by shareholders, provides for the granting of incentive and non-statutory stock options for up to 6,000,000 shares plus any shares currently reserved but unissued to employees, consultants, and directors of Trimble. Incentive stock options may be granted at exercise prices that are not less than 100% of the fair market value of Common Stock on the date of grant. Employee stock options granted under the 2002 Plan have 120-month terms, and vest at a rate of 20% at the first anniversary of grant, and monthly thereafter at an annual rate of 20%, with full vesting occurring at the fifth anniversary of the grant. The exercise price of non-statutory stock options issued under the 2002 Plan must be at least 85% of the fair market value of Common Stock on the date of grant.

1993 Stock Option Plan

In 1992, Trimble's Board of Directors adopted the 1993 Stock Option Plan (“1993 Plan”). The 1993 Plan, as amended to date and approved by shareholders, provided for the granting of incentive and non-statutory stock options for up to 9,562,500 shares of Common Stock to employees, consultants, and directors of Trimble. Incentive stock options may be granted at exercise prices that are not less than 100% of the fair market value of Common Stock on the date of grant. Employee stock options granted under the 1993 Plan have 120-month terms, and vest at a rate of 20% at the first anniversary of grant, and monthly thereafter at an annual rate of 20%, with full vesting occurring at the fifth anniversary of grant. The exercise price of non-statutory stock options issued under the 1993 Plan must be at least 85% of the fair market value of Common Stock on the date of grant.

1992 Management Discount Stock Option Plan

Valuation Assumptions

For options granted prior to October 1, 2005, the fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. For stock options granted on or after October 1, 2005, the fair value of each award is estimated on the date of grant using a binomial valuation model. Similar to the Black-Scholes model, the binomial model takes into account variables such as volatility, dividend yield rate, and risk free interest rate. In addition, the binomial model incorporates actual option-pricing behavior and changes in volatility over the option’s contractual term. For these reasons, the Company believes that the binomial model provides a fair value that is more representative of actual experience and future expected experience than the value calculated using the Black-Scholes model.

Under the binomial models and Black-Scholes, the estimated values of each employee stock option granted during the second quarter of fiscal 2006 and 2005 were $17.93 and $17.67, respectively. The value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the binomial model for options granted during the second quarter of fiscal 2006 and the Black-Scholes option pricing model for options granted during the second quarter of fiscal 2005 and with the following assumptions:

Expected Dividend Yield - The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts.

Expected Stock Price Volatility - The Company’s computation of expected volatility is based on a combination of implied volatilities from traded options on the Company’s stock and historical volatility. The Company used implied and historical volatility as the combination was more representative of future stock price trends than historical volatility alone.


Expected Risk Free Interest Rate - The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the option.

Expected Life Of Option - The Company’s expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock options are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on historical experience of similar stock options with consideration to the contractual terms of the stock options, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior.
 
EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

Stock-based compensation expense related to the Company’s employee stock purchase plan is recognized during the purchase vesting period which is generally six months.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Purchase Plan”) under which an aggregate of 5,775,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for sale to eligible employees as approved by the shareholders to date. The plan permits full-time employees to purchase Common Stock through payroll deductions at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the beginning or at the end of each six-month offering period. The Purchase Plan terminates on September 8, 2008.

Valuation Assumptions

The fair value of rights granted under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following weighted-average assumptions were used at June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005:

Expected Dividend Yield - The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts.

Expected Stock Price Volatility - The Company’s computation of expected volatility is based on implied volatilities from traded options on the Company’s stock. The Company used implied volatility because it is representative of future stock price trends during the six month purchase period.

Expected Risk Free Interest Rate - The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the purchase period.

Expected Life Of Purchase - The Company’s expected life of the purchase is based on the 6 month offering period of the purchase plan.
 
NOTE 4. JOINT VENTURES:

Caterpillar Trimble Control Technologies Joint Venture

On April 1, 2002, Caterpillar Trimble Control Technologies LLC (“CTCT”), a joint venture formed by Trimble and Caterpillar began operations. The joint venture is 50% owned by Trimble and 50% owned by Caterpillar, with equal voting rights. The joint venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, Trimble’s share of profits and losses are included in expenses for affiliated operations, net in the non-operating income (expense), net section of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. CTCT develops advanced electronic guidance and control products for earth moving machines in the construction and mining industries.

Trimble acts as a contract manufacturer for CTCT. Products are manufactured based on orders received from CTCT and are sold at cost plus a mark up to CTCT. CTCT resells products to both Caterpillar and Trimble for sales through their respective distribution channels. Generally, Trimble sells products to its after market dealer channel, and Caterpillar sells products for factory and dealer installation. CTCT does not hold inventory in that the resale of products to Caterpillar and Trimble occur simultaneously when the products are purchased from Trimble.


Beginning in the first fiscal quarter of 2006, Trimble included the impact of certain transactions with CTCT in revenue and cost of sales. Revenue and cost of sales were recorded for the manufacturing of products that are sold to CTCT and then sold through the Caterpillar distribution channel. Cost of sales transactions also include the purchasing of products from CTCT at a higher price than Trimble's original manufacturing costs for products sold through the Trimble distribution channel. Prior to the first fiscal quarter of 2006, these transactions were included in expenses for affiliated operations, net in the non-operating income (expense), net section of the Consolidated Statements of Income. The change in presentation resulted from the Company’s assessment of CTCT’s advancement and ability to function as a stand-alone company. In addition, the Company’s exclusive manufacturing agreement with CTCT ended during fiscal 2005. As a result, during the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company deemed transactions between CTCT and Trimble to be arms-length and concluded they should be presented similarly to other vendor and customer relationships. The impact of this change in presentation was a $5.1 million decrease and $10.4 million decrease in gross margins for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006. There was no impact on net income.

Trimble received reimbursement of employee-related costs from CTCT for Trimble employees dedicated to CTCT or performing work for CTCT totaling $3.5 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005, respectively, and $6.9 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005, respectively. The reimbursements were offset against operating expenses.

The net outstanding balance due from CTCT was $0.2 million at June 30, 2006 and at December 30, 2005 and is included in account receivables, net. As of June 30, 2006, dividend receivable from CTCT was $3.4 million and was included in other receivables.

Nikon-Trimble Joint Venture

On March 28, 2003, Trimble and Nikon Corporation entered into an agreement to form a joint venture in Japan, Nikon-Trimble Co., Ltd., as described in Trimble’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Nikon-Trimble began operations in July, 2003 and is equally owned by Trimble and Nikon, with equal voting rights.
 
Nikon-Trimble is the distributor in Japan for Nikon and Trimble products. Trimble is the exclusive distributor outside of Japan for Nikon branded survey products. For products sold from Trimble to the Nikon-Trimble, revenue is recognized by Trimble on a sell-through basis from Nikon-Trimble to the end customer. Profits from these inter-company sales are eliminated.

The terms and conditions of the sales of products from Trimble to Nikon-Trimble are comparable with those of the standard distribution agreements which Trimble maintains with its dealer channel and margins earned are similar to those from third party dealers. Similarly, the purchases of product by Trimble from the Nikon-Trimble are made on terms comparable with the arrangements which Nikon maintained with its international distribution channel prior to the formation of the joint venture with Trimble.

Trimble has adopted the equity method of accounting for its investment in Nikon-Trimble, with 50% share of profit or loss from this joint venture to be reported by Trimble in the Non-operating section of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income under the heading of “Expenses for affiliated operations, net.” For the three months ended June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005, Trimble reported a profit of $0.2 million and a loss of $0.3 million, respectively, and a profit of approximately $0.2 million and a loss of $0.5 million for the six months ending June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005, as its proportionate share of the results of the joint venture.  In the second quarter of fiscal 2006, Trimble began recording its proportionate share of profit or loss in the joint venture one month in arrears.  The impact is not considered to be material. At June 30, 2006, the net receivable from Nikon-Trimble to Trimble, related to the purchase and sale of products from and to Nikon-Trimble, is $1.7 million and was recorded within accounts receivable, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.  At December 30, 2005, the net payable by Trimble to Nikon-Trimble is $2.0 million and was recorded within accounts payable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The carrying amount of the investment in Nikon Trimble was approximately $13.2 million at June 30, 2006 and $12.9 million at December 30, 2005 and is recorded in other long-term assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 7. THE COMPANY AND SEGMENT INFORMATION:

Trimble is a designer and distributor of positioning products and applications enabled by GPS, optical, laser, and wireless communications technology. The Company provides products for diverse applications in its targeted markets.

To achieve distribution, marketing, production, and technology advantages, the Company manages its operations in the following four segments:

 
·
Engineering and Construction — Consists of products currently used by survey and construction professionals in the field for positioning, data collection, field computing, data management, and machine guidance and control. The applications served include surveying, road, runway, construction, site preparation and building construction.

 
·
Field Solutions — Consists of products that provide solutions in a variety of agriculture and geographic information systems (GIS) applications. In agriculture these include precise land leveling and machine guidance systems. In GIS they include handheld devices and software that enable the collection of data on assets for a variety of governmental and private entities.

 
·
Mobile Solutions — Consists of products that enable end users to monitor and manage their mobile assets by communicating location and activity-relevant information from the field to the office. Trimble offers a range of products that address a number of sectors of this market including truck fleets, security, and public safety vehicles.

 
·
Advanced Devices — The various operations that comprise this segment were aggregated on the basis that no single operation accounted for more than 10% of Trimble’s total revenue, operating income and assets. This segment is comprised of the Component Technologies, Military and Advanced Systems, Applanix and Trimble Outdoors businesses.

Trimble evaluates each of its segment's performance and allocates resources based on segment operating income from operations before income taxes, and some corporate allocations. Trimble and each of its segments employ the same accounting policies.

In the first quarter of 2006, Trimble combined the operating results of the former Components Technologies and Portfolio Technologies segments and included the combined operating results in the Advanced Devices segment. The change in presentation was made in recognition of the small size of each of the businesses relative to the total company. The presentation of prior period’s segment operating results has been changed to conform to the Company’s current segment presentation.

The following table presents revenues, operating income (loss), and identifiable assets for the four segments. Operating income (loss) is net revenue less operating expenses, excluding general corporate expenses, amortization, restructuring charges, non-operating income (expense), and income taxes. The identifiable assets that Trimble's Chief Operating Decision Maker views by segment are accounts receivable and inventory.

NOTE 8. LONG TERM DEBT

Credit Facilities

On July 28, 2005, Trimble entered into a $200 million unsecured revolving credit agreement (“2005 Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of 10 banks with The Bank of Nova Scotia as the administrative agent. The 2005 Credit Facility replaced the Company’s $175 million secured 2003 Credit Facility. The funds available under the new 2005 Credit Facility may be used by the Company for general corporate purposes and up to $25 million of the 2005 Credit Facility may be used for letters of credit.

The Company may borrow funds under the 2005 Credit Facility in U.S. Dollars or in certain other currencies, and will bear interest, at the Company's option, at either: (i) a base rate, based on the administrative agent's prime rate, plus a margin of between 0% and 0.125%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of its most recently ended fiscal quarter, or (ii) a reserve-adjusted rate based on LIBOR, EURIBOR, STIBOR or other agreed-upon rate, depending on the currency borrowed, plus a margin of between 0.625% and 1.125%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. The Company's obligations under the 2005 Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.

The 2005 Credit Facility contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants including, among other requirements, negative covenants that restrict the Company's ability to dispose of assets, create liens, incur indebtedness, repurchase stock, pay dividends, make acquisitions, make investments, enter into mergers and consolidations and make capital expenditures, and financial covenants that require the maintenance of leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. The 2005 Credit Facility contains events of default that include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, breach of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross defaults to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, and events constituting a change of control. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, interest on the obligations will accrue at an increased rate and the lenders may accelerate the Company's obligations under the 2005 Credit Facility, however that acceleration will be automatic in the case of bankruptcy and insolvency events of default. Trimble incurs a commitment fee if the 2005 Credit Facility is not used. The commitment fee is not material to the Company’s results during all periods presented.
At June 30, 2006, the Company had a zero balance outstanding under the 2005 Credit Facility and was in compliance with all financial covenants.

Notes Payable

As of June 30, 2006, the Company had other notes payable totaling approximately $0.9 million consisting of government loans to foreign subsidiaries and loans assumed from acquisitions.

NOTE 9. PRODUCT WARRANTIES:

The Company accrues for warranty costs as part of its cost of sales based on associated material product costs, technical support labor costs, and costs incurred by third parties performing work on Trimble's behalf. The products sold are generally covered by a warranty for periods ranging from 90 days to three years, and in some instances up to 5.5 years.

While the Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage, and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates, material usage, or service delivery costs differ from the estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty accrual and related costs may be required.


Changes in the Company’s product warranty liability during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005 are as follows:

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to product returns, doubtful accounts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, restructuring costs, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the amount and timing of revenue and expenses and the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. See the discussion of our critical accounting policies under the heading Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for fiscal 2005.

Revenue

In the three months ended June 30, 2006, total revenue increased by $41.1 million or 20%, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to stronger performances in our Engineering and Construction and Mobile Solutions segments. The Engineering and Construction and Mobile Solutions segments increased $26.9 million and $8.4 million, respectively, compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2005. Revenue growth within these segments was primarily driven by new product introductions and increased penetration of existing markets. Both segments also benefited from acquisitions.

In the six months ended June 30, 2006, total revenue increased by $71.6 million or 18%, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to stronger performances in our Engineering and Construction and Mobile Solutions segments. The Engineering and Construction and Mobile Solutions segments increased $53.5 million and $13.6 million, respectively, compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2005. Revenue growth within these segments was primarily driven by new product introductions and increased penetration of existing markets, as well as the impact of acquisitions for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 that were not applicable in the comparable period in 2005.

During the second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2006, sales to customers in the United States represented 55%, Europe represented 25%, Asia Pacific represented 11% and other regions represented 9% of our total revenues. During the same corresponding period in fiscal 2005, sales to customers in the United States represented 54%, Europe represented 25%, Asia Pacific represented 11% and other regions represented 10% of our total revenues.

 
Gross Margin

Gross margin varies due to a number of factors including product mix, pricing, distribution channel used, the effects of production volumes, new product start-up costs, and foreign currency translations. Gross margin as a percentage of total revenues was 49.6% and 48.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, compared to 50.1% for the three and six months ended July 1, 2005. Gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2006 decreased primarily due to the impact of CTCT transactions of $5.1 million previously recorded in non-operating expenses, amortization of software-related purchased intangibles of $1.3 million and stock-based compensation expense of $0.3 million that were not included in gross margin during the second quarter of fiscal 2005, for a total impact of 2.7%. Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2006 decreased primarily due to the impact of CTCT transactions of $10.4 million previously recorded in non-operating expenses, amortization of software-related purchased intangibles of $2.2 million and stock-based compensation expense of $0.6 million that were not included in gross margin during the same period in fiscal 2005, for a total impact of 2.8%. Underlying margins increased due to stronger sales of our new, higher margin products, and higher revenue.

Operating Income

Operating income as a percentage of total revenue was 15.8% and 19.0% for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively and 15.2% and 17.3% for the first six months of fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. The decrease in operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the corresponding period last year is driven by the impact of CTCT transactions of $5.1 million and stock-based compensation expense of $3.3 million that were not included in operating income during the second quarter of fiscal 2005. In addition, expenses related to acquisitions, namely amortization of purchased intangibles and purchased in-process research and development expenses, increased by $2.6 million versus the same period last year. The decrease in operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 is driven by the impact of CTCT transactions of $10.4 million and stock-based compensation expense of $6.5 million that were not included in operating income during the same period last year. In addition, expenses related to acquisitions, namely amortization of purchased intangibles and purchased in-process research and development expenses, increased by $2.6 million versus the same period last year. The fluctuations for both three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 were partially offset by an increase in revenue and an increase in the underlying gross margins.

Results by Segment

To achieve distribution, marketing, production, and technology advantages in our targeted markets, we manage our operations in the following four segments: Engineering and Construction, Field Solutions, Mobile Solutions, and Advanced Devices. Operating income (loss) equals net revenue less cost of sales and operating expenses, excluding general corporate expenses, amortization of purchased intangibles, restructuring charges, non-operating income (expense), and income taxes.

In the first fiscal quarter of 2006, we combined the operating results of the former Components Technologies and Portfolio Technologies segments and included the combined operating results in the Advanced Devices segment. The change in presentation was made in recognition of the small size of each of the businesses relative to the total company. The presentation of prior period’s segment operating results has been changed to conform to our current segment presentation.

Engineering and Construction

Engineering and Construction revenues increased by $26.9 million or 19% and $53.5 million or 20% while segment operating income increased $1.6 million or 4% and $6.5 million or 11% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same corresponding periods in fiscal 2005.

The revenue growth for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was driven by a steady market, strong sales of new products and aggressive marketing programs. In addition, for the three months ended June 30, 2006 segment operating income increased as a result of higher revenues and increased sales of higher margin products, partially offset by $4.9 million in expenses related to CTCT transactions and $1.1 million in stock-based compensation expense that were not present in the corresponding period of fiscal 2005, as well as higher costs incurred due to meeting the requirements of a European lead free initiative (known as RoHS). For the six months ended June 30, 2006 segment operating income increased as a result of higher revenues and increased sales of higher margin products, partially offset by $9.7 million in expenses related to CTCT transactions and $2.1 million in stock-based compensation expense that were not present in the corresponding period of fiscal 2005.

Field Solutions 

Field Solutions revenues increased by $4.1 million or 13% and $1.7 million or 2% while segment operating income increased $3.3 million or 40% and $1.6 million or 7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same corresponding periods in fiscal 2005.

Revenues increased for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006 compared to the corresponding period of fiscal 2005 due to double digit growth in both our agricultural and GIS businesses. In GIS, growth was due to new products and a continuing shift to a higher value, differentiated distribution channel. In agriculture, growth was driven by higher demand for both automated and manual guidance products as farmers increasingly utilized technology to increase yields and improve productivity. Operating income increased primarily due to higher revenue and stronger operating leverage.

Revenue growth for the first six months of 2006 was relatively flat to fiscal 2005 due to the strong revenue generated by new products introduced, primarily in agriculture, in the prior year. Operating income was up, driven by the timing of expenses related to new product introduction.

Mobile Solutions

Mobile Solutions revenues increased by $8.4 million or 131% and $13.6 million or 98% while segment operating income increased $2.3 million or 120% and $3.1 million or 124% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same corresponding periods in fiscal 2005.

Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 2005 grew due to increased subscriber growth, an increase in recurring revenues, the benefit of acquisitions not in the prior period, and our entry into new vertical markets. Operating income for three and six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 2005 increased primarily due to higher subscription revenue and gross margins.


Advanced Devices

Advanced Devices revenues increased by $1.6 million or 7% and $2.7 million or 6% while operating income decreased by $2.3 million or 51% and $3.2 million or 42% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2005.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal 2005, the increase in revenue was primarily due to stronger performance in our Applanix airborne business and sales of components to our non-automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEM’s”). Operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same period in fiscal 2005 decreased primarily due to a reduction in revenue in our automotive and timing businesses and relatively flat sales in our Military and Advanced Systems product line. Operating income year over year also declined due to development costs related to the introduction of the TrimTrac® GSM version, costs incurred due to meeting the requirements of the European lead free initiative, and product mix.

Overall, R&D, S&M, and G&A expense increased by approximately $18.1 million and $25.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same corresponding periods in fiscal 2005. Included in the increase were approximately $2.9 million and $5.9 million of stock-based compensation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, not included in the prior year periods.

The increase in R&D expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 as compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2005 was primarily due to the inclusion of expenses of $1.6 million from acquisitions not applicable in the prior fiscal quarter, $1.5 million increase in compensation related expenses, $0.7 million in stock-based compensation expense which was not present in the second quarter of fiscal 2005, $0.5 million increase in consulting fees, and $3.0 million increase in R&D outside services and parts expenses which was primarily due to compliance with the European lead free initiative.
 
The increase in R&D expenses in the first six months of fiscal 2006 as compared with the corresponding period in fiscal 2005 was primarily due to the to the inclusion of expenses of $2.6 million from acquisitions not applicable in the prior corresponding period, $1.1 million increase in compensation related expenses, $1.3 million in stock-based compensation expense which was not present in the six months ended July 1, 2005, and $3.0 million increase in R&D outside services and parts expenses which was primarily due to compliance with the European lead free initiative.

All of our R&D costs have been expensed as incurred. Cost of software developed for external sale subsequent to reaching technical feasibility were not considered material and were expensed as incurred.

* We believe that the development and introduction of new products are critical to our future success and we expect to continue active development of new products.


The increase in S&M expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 as compared with the corresponding period of fiscal 2005 was primarily due the inclusion of expenses from acquisitions not applicable in the prior period in the amount of $2.1 million, $3.0 million increase in compensation related expenses, $0.7 million in stock-based compensation expense which was not present in the second quarter of fiscal 2005, and $0.6 million increase in tradeshow related expenses. The increase in S&M expenses in the first six months of fiscal 2006 as compared with the corresponding period of fiscal 2005 was primarily due the inclusion of expenses from acquisitions not applicable in the prior period in the amount of $2.7 million, $3.4 million increase in compensation related expenses, $1.5 million in stock-based compensation expense which was not present in the six months ended July 1, 2005, $1.8 million increase in tradeshow related expenses, and $0.7 million increase in travel expenses.

* Our future growth will depend in part on the timely development and continued viability of the markets in which we currently compete as well as our ability to continue to identify and develop new markets for our products.

The increase in G&A expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 as compared with the corresponding period in fiscal 2005 was primarily due the inclusion of expenses from acquisitions not applicable in the prior year in the amount of $0.4 million, $1.3 million increase in compensation related expenses, $1.6 million in stock-based compensation expense which was not present in the second quarter of fiscal 2005, and $0.7 increase in bad debt expense, partially offset by $0.3 million decrease in G&A equipment and material related expenses. The increase in G&A expenses in the first six months of fiscal 2006 compared with the corresponding period in fiscal 2005 was primarily due the inclusion of expenses from acquisitions not applicable in the prior year in the amount of $1.8 million, $2.2 million increase in compensation related expenses, $3.1 million in stock-based compensation expense which was not present in the second quarter of fiscal 2005, and $1.1 million increase in facilities expenses, partially offset by $0.3 million decrease in G&A equipment and material related expenses and $0.7 million decrease in consulting expenses.

Amortization of Purchased Intangible Assets

Amortization of purchased intangible assets was $3.7 million, of which $1.3 million was recorded in cost of sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2006, compared with $2.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005. The increase was due to several acquisitions made by the Company since the last fiscal year. Amortization of purchased intangible assets was $6.1 million, of which $2.2 was recorded in cost of revenue, in the first six months of fiscal 2006, compared with $4.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of certain technology and patent intangibles as a result of acquisitions not applicable in the comparable period of fiscal 2005, partially offset by Spectra-related intangible assets that were fully amortized in June 2005.

In-Process Research and Development

We recorded In-process research and development (IPR&D) expense of $1.0 million related to acquisitions during the three and six month period ended June 30, 2006. We did not record any IPR&D expense during the same corresponding periods in fiscal 2005. At the date of each acquisition, the projects associated with the IPR&D efforts had not yet reached technological feasibility and the research and development in process had no alternative future uses. The value of the IPR&D was determined using a discounted cash flow model similar to the income approach, focusing on the income producing capabilities of the in-process technologies. Accordingly, the value assigned to these IPR&D amounts were charged to expense on the respective acquisition date of each of the acquired companies.

Restructuring Charges

We did not record any restructuring charges during the second quarter of fiscal 2006 and 2005. During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $0.3 million associated with the closure of one of our sales offices as a result of integration efforts of a previous acquisition. There were no restructuring charges recorded during the first quarter of 2006. Payments of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, and $0.2 million and $0.3 million, were made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2005, respectively, relating to previous restructuring plans.  As of June 30, 2006, the remaining restructuring accrual balance is $0.2 million which is related to the office closure expected to be paid over the next several years. The restructuring accrual is included on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under the heading of “Accrued Liabilities.”

Non-operating income, net increased $5.1 million or 196% for second quarter of fiscal 2006 compared with the corresponding period in fiscal 2005 primarily due to a $4.1 million increase in income from affiliated operations, resulting from a $1.1 million increase in profits from our joint ventures and the absence of $3.0 million in transfer pricing expense with CTCT that were included in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 but now included in operating income in fiscal 2006. In addition, non-operating income increased due to an increase in net interest income of $1.0 million as a result of interest expense incurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 on debt subsequently repaid and higher interest income earned on the investment of cash balances.

Non-operating income, net increased by $11.7 million or 183% during the first six months of fiscal 2006 compared with the corresponding period in fiscal 2005 primarily due to a $8.7 million increase in income from affiliated operations, resulting from a $2.6 million increase in gains from our joint ventures and the absence of $6.1 million in transfer pricing expense with CTCT that were included in the first six months of fiscal 2005, but now included in operating income in fiscal 2006. In addition, non-operating income increased due to an increase in net interest income of $2.0 million as a result of interest expense incurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 on debt subsequently repaid and higher interest income earned on the investment of cash balances, as well as due to $0.9 million increase in foreign currency transaction gains.
 
Income Tax Provision

Our income tax provision reflects an effective tax rate of 31% and 30% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively. The effective tax rates for the comparable periods in fiscal 2005 were 34%. The 2006 year-to-date tax rate is lower than the 2005 tax rate due to the favorable outcomes of two foreign income tax audits which were partially offset by the impact of the accounting for stock based compensation in accordance with SFAS 123R.

* We expect the tax rate to normalize at 35% for the second half of fiscal 2006, for an estimated effective annual tax rate of approximately 32% for the balance of fiscal 2006. The effective tax rate could be affected by several factors including stock option activity, geographic mix of our pre-tax income, legislative changes, or changes to our existing valuation allowance or contingent tax liabilities.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
We believe that there have been no significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2006 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in our 2005 Form 10-K, except as noted below.

Stock-based Compensation

We have adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”) using the modified prospective method which requires the adoption of the accounting standard for fiscal years beginning June 15, 2005. As a result, our financial statements for fiscal periods after December 30, 2005 will include stock-based compensation expenses that are not comparable to financial statements of fiscal periods prior to December 30, 2005. SFAS 123(R) requires stock-based compensation to be estimated using the fair value on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods of the related employees’ in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based compensation to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25 as allowed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”). Under the intrinsic value method, no stock-based compensation expense had been recognized in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income because the exercise price of the Company’s stock options granted to employees and directors equaled the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant.

For options granted prior to October 1, 2005, the fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. For stock options granted on or after October 1, 2005, the fair value of each award is estimated on the date of grant using a binomial valuation model. Similar to the Black-Scholes model, the binomial model takes into account variables such as volatility, dividend yield rate, and risk free interest rate. In addition, the binomial model incorporates actual option-pricing behavior and changes in volatility over the option’s contractual term. For these reasons, we believe that the binomial model provides a fair value for stock options that is more representative of actual experience and future expected experience than the value calculated using the Black-Scholes model. The fair value of rights granted under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

For the three and six months ended 2006, we recognized $3.0 million and $5.9 million in net stock-based compensation expense, respectively. This is compared to the three and six months ended 2005 pro forma net stock-based compensation expense of $2.7 million and $5.8, respectively. As of June 30, 2006, the total unamortized stock option expense is $16.1 million with a weighted-average recognition period of 1.5 years.

 
See Note 3 to the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCINGS AND LIABILITIES

Other than lease commitments incurred in the normal course of business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, or any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, we do not have any interest in, or relationship with, any special purpose entities.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our financial condition further strengthened at June 30, 2006. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $107.7 million compared to $73.9 million at December 30, 2005. We essentially have no debt at June 30, 2006.

* For the first six months of fiscal 2006, cash provided by operating activities was $59.4 million, compared to $36.6 million in cash provided by operating activities during the first six months of fiscal 2005. This increase of $22.8 million was primarily driven by a $13.1 million increase in net income and a $7.7 million increase in deferred revenue. Our ability to continue to generate cash from operations will depend in large part on profitability, the rate of collections of accounts receivable, our inventory turns, and our ability to manage other areas of working capital. Our accounts receivable days for sales outstanding improved to 55 days at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2006, from 66 days at the end of fiscal 2005. The decrease is due to increased collection efforts and improvement in monitoring of outstanding receivables. Our inventory turns were unchanged at four for the first six months of fiscal 2006 and at fiscal year end 2005.

We used $49.1 million in net cash for investing activities during the first six months of 2006, compared to $27.6 million in the first six months of 2005. The $21.5 million increase in spending was primarily due to an increase of $17.9 million in cash used for acquisitions and an increase of $3.2 million in investment in Enterprise Resource Planning systems.

* We expect fiscal 2006 capital expenditures to be approximately $15 million to $20 million, primarily for computer equipment, software, manufacturing tools and test equipment, and leasehold improvements associated with business expansion. Decisions related to how much cash is used for investing are influenced by the expected amount of cash to be provided by operations.

We generated $21.2 million in net cash from financing activities in the first six months of 2006, compared to $22.5 million in cash used during the first six months of 2005. The $43.7 million improvement was primarily due to a $38.3 million decrease in repayment of net debt, $4.8 million in excess tax benefits relating to stock-based compensation which was not present in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 and a $1.7 million increase in proceeds received from issuance of common stock.

* We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, together with our credit facilities ($200 million as of June 30, 2006), will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs for at least the next twelve months.
 
Debt

At June 30, 2006, our total debt was approximately $0.9 million compared to $0.6 million at the end of fiscal 2005. This relates to government loans to foreign subsidiaries and loans assumed from acquisitions.


On July 28, 2005, we entered into a $200 million unsecured revolving credit agreement (“2005 Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of 10 banks with The Bank of Nova Scotia as the administrative agent. The 2005 Credit Facility replaces our $175 million secured 2003 Credit Facility. The funds available under the new 2005 Credit Facility may be used for our general corporate purposes and up to $25 million of the 2005 Credit Facility may be used for letters of credit. We incur a commitment fee if the 2005 Credit Facility is not used. The commitment fee is not material to our results during all periods presented. As of June 30, 2006, the Company had a zero balance outstanding under the 2005 Credit Facility and was in compliance with all financial covenants.
 
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We use certain derivative financial instruments to manage these risks. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. All financial instruments are used in accordance with policies approved by our board of directors.

Market Interest Rate Risk

There has been no change to our market interest rate risk assessment. Refer to our 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to minimize the short-term impact of foreign currency fluctuations on certain trade and inter-company receivables and payables, primarily denominated in Australian, Canadian, Japanese, New Zealand, and Swedish currencies, the Euro, and the British pound. These contracts reduce the exposure to fluctuations in exchange rate movements as the gains and losses associated with foreign currency balances are generally offset with the gains and losses on the forward contracts. These instruments are marked to market through earnings every period and generally range from one to three months in original maturity. We do not enter into foreign exchange forward contract for trading purposes.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act.

(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, the Company is involved in litigation arising out of the ordinary course of its business. There are no known claims or pending litigation expected to have a material effect on the Company’s overall financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

ITEM 1A.
RISKS FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risk factors, in addition to the other information contained in this Form 10-Q and in any other documents to which we refer you in this Form 10-Q, before purchasing our securities. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face.
Our Inability to Accurately Predict Orders and Shipments May Affect Our Revenue, Expenses and Earnings per Share.

We have not been able in the past to consistently predict when our customers will place orders and request shipments so that we cannot always accurately plan our manufacturing requirements. As a result, if orders and shipments differ from what we predict, we may incur additional expenses and build excess inventory, which may require additional reserves and allowances. Any significant change in our customers’ purchasing patterns could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and reported earnings per share for a particular quarter.

Our Operating Results in Each Quarter May Be Affected by Special Conditions, Such As Seasonality, Late Quarter Purchases, Weather, and Other Potential Issues.

Due in part to the buying patterns of our customers, a significant portion of our quarterly revenues occurs from orders received and immediately shipped to customers in the last few weeks and days of each quarter, although our operating expenses tend to remain fairly predictable. Engineering and construction purchases tend to occur in early spring, and governmental agencies tend to utilize funds available at the end of the government’s fiscal year for additional purchases at the end of our third fiscal quarter in September of each year. Concentrations of orders sometimes also occur at the end of our other two fiscal quarters. Additionally, a majority of our sales force earns commissions on a quarterly basis which may cause concentrations of orders at the end of any fiscal quarter. If for any reason expected sales are deferred, orders are not received, or shipments are delayed a few days at the end of a quarter, our operating results and reported earnings per share for that quarter could be significantly impacted.

We Are Dependent on a Specific Manufacturer and Assembler for Many of Our Products and on Specific Suppliers of Critical Parts for Our Products.

We are substantially dependent upon Solectron Corporation in California, China and Mexico as our preferred manufacturing partner for many of our GPS products previously manufactured out of our Sunnyvale facilities. Under the agreement with Solectron, we provide to Solectron a twelve-month product forecast and place purchase orders with Solectron at least thirty calendar days in advance of the scheduled delivery of products to our customers depending on production lead time. Although purchase orders placed with Solectron are cancelable, the terms of the agreement would require us to purchase from Solectron all inventory not returnable or usable by other Solectron customers. Accordingly, if we inaccurately forecast demand for our products, we may be unable to obtain adequate manufacturing capacity from Solectron to meet customers’ delivery requirements or we may accumulate excess inventories, if such inventories are not usable by other Solectron customers. Our current contract with Solectron continues in effect until either party gives the other ninety days written notice.

In addition, we rely on specific suppliers for a number of our critical components. We have experienced shortages of components in the past. Our current reliance on specific or a limited group of suppliers involves several risks, including a potential inability to obtain an adequate supply of required components and reduced control over pricing. Any inability to obtain adequate deliveries or any other circumstance that would require us to seek alternative sources of supply or to manufacture such components internally could significantly delay our ability to ship our products, which could damage relationships with current and prospective customers and could harm our reputation and brand, and could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our Annual and Quarterly Performance May Fluctuate.

Our operating results have fluctuated and can be expected to continue to fluctuate in the future on a quarterly and annual basis as a result of a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. Results in any period could be affected by:

·  
changes in market demand,
·  
competitive market conditions,
·  
market acceptance of existing or new products,
·  
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates,
·  
the cost and availability of components,
·  
our ability to manufacture and ship products,
·  
the mix of our customer base and sales channels,
·  
the mix of products sold,
·  
our ability to expand our sales and marketing organization effectively,
·  
our ability to attract and retain key technical and managerial employees,
·  
the timing of shipments of products under contracts and
·  
general global economic conditions.
 

In addition, demand for our products in any quarter or year may vary due to the seasonal buying patterns of our customers in the agricultural and engineering and construction industries. Due to the foregoing factors, our operating results in one or more future periods are expected to be subject to significant fluctuations. The price of our common stock could decline substantially in the event such fluctuations result in our financial performance being below the expectations of public market analysts and investors, which are based primarily on historical models that are not necessarily accurate representations of the future.

Our Gross Margin Is Subject to Fluctuation.

Our gross margin is affected by a number of factors, including product mix, product pricing, cost of components, foreign currency exchange rates and manufacturing costs. For example, sales of Nikon-branded products generally have lower gross margins as compared to our GPS survey products. Absent other factors, a shift in sales towards Nikon-branded products would lead to a reduction in our overall gross margins. A decline in gross margin could potentially negatively impact our earnings per share.

Failure to maintain effective internal controls in compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have an adverse effect on our business and stock price.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires us to include an internal control report of management in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. For fiscal 2004 and 2005 we satisfied the requirements of Section 404, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and a report by our independent auditors addressing these assessments.

A system of controls, however well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of a control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of the inherent limitations of control systems, there is only reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their stated goals under all potential future conditions.

We Are Dependent on New Products.

Our future revenue stream depends to a large degree on our ability to bring new products to market on a timely basis. We must continue to make significant investments in research and development in order to continue to develop new products, enhance existing products and achieve market acceptance of such products. We may incur problems in the future in innovating and introducing new products. Our development stage products may not be successfully completed or, if developed, may not achieve significant customer acceptance. If we were unable to successfully define, develop and introduce competitive new products, and enhance existing products, our future results of operations would be adversely affected. Development and manufacturing schedules for technology products are difficult to predict, and we might not achieve timely initial customer shipments of new products. The timely availability of these products in volume and their acceptance by customers are important to our future success. A delay in new product introductions could have a significant impact on our results of operations.

We Are Dependent on Proprietary Technology.

Our future success and competitive position is dependent upon our proprietary technology, and we rely on patent, trade secret, trademark and copyright law to protect our intellectual property. The patents owned or licensed by us may be invalidated, circumvented, and challenged. The rights granted under these patents may not provide competitive advantages to us. Any of our pending or future patent applications may not be issued within the scope of the claims sought by us, if at all.

Others may develop technologies that are similar or superior to our technology, duplicate our technology or design around the patents owned by us. In addition, effective copyright, patent and trade secret protection may be unavailable, limited or not applied for in certain countries. The steps taken by us to protect our technology might not prevent the misappropriation of such technology.

The value of our products relies substantially on our technical innovation in fields in which there are many current patent filings. We recognize that as new patents are issued or are brought to our attention by the holders of such patents, it may be necessary for us to withdraw products from the market, take a license from such patent holders, or redesign our products. We do not believe any of our products currently infringe patents or other proprietary rights of third parties, but we cannot be certain they do not do so. In addition, the legal costs and engineering time required to safeguard intellectual property or to defend against litigation could become a significant expense of operations. Such events could have a material adverse effect on our revenues or profitability.


Our products may contain errors or defects, which could result in damage to our reputation, lost revenues, diverted development resources and increased service costs, warranty claims and litigation.

Our devices are complex and must meet stringent requirements. We warrant that our products will be free of defect for various periods of time, depending on the product. In addition, certain of our contracts include epidemic failure clauses. If invoked, these clauses may entitle the customer to return or obtain credits for products and inventory, or to cancel outstanding purchase orders even if the products themselves are not defective.

We must develop our products quickly to keep pace with the rapidly changing market, and we have a history of frequently introducing new products. Products and services as sophisticated as ours could contain undetected errors or defects, especially when first introduced or when new models or versions are released. In general, our products may not be free from errors or defects after commercial shipments have begun, which could result in damage to our reputation, lost revenues, diverted development resources, increased customer service and support costs and warranty claims and litigation which could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We Are Dependent on the Availability of Allocated Bands within the Radio Frequency Spectrum.

Our GPS technology is dependent on the use of the Standard Positioning Service (“SPS”) provided by the US Government’s GPS. The GPS SPS operates in radio frequency bands that are globally allocated for radio navigation satellite services. International allocations of radio frequency are made by the International Telecommunications Union (“ITU”), a specialized technical agency of the United Nations. These allocations are further governed by radio regulations that have treaty status and which may be subject to modification every two to three years by the World Radio Communication Conference.

Any ITU reallocation of radio frequency bands, including frequency band segmentation or sharing of spectrum, may materially and adversely affect the utility and reliability of our products. Many of our products use other radio frequency bands, together with the GPS signal, to provide enhanced GPS capabilities, such as real-time kinematic precision. The continuing availability of these non-GPS radio frequencies is essential to provide enhanced GPS products to our precision survey and construction machine controls markets. Any regulatory changes in spectrum allocation or in allowable operating conditions may cause a material adverse effect on our operating results.

In addition, unwanted emissions from mobile satellite services and other equipment operating in adjacent frequency bands or in-band from licensed and unlicensed devices may materially and adversely affect the utility and reliability of our products. The FCC continually receives proposals for novel technologies and services, such as ultra-wideband technologies, which may seek to operate in, or across, the radio frequency bands currently used by the GPS SPS and other public safety services. Adverse decisions by the FCC that result in harmful interference to the delivery of the GPS SPS and other radio frequency spectrum also used in our products may result in a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Many of Our Products Rely on the GPS Satellite System.

The GPS satellites and their ground support systems are complex electronic systems subject to electronic and mechanical failures and possible sabotage. The satellites currently in orbit were originally designed to have lives of 7.5 years and are subject to damage by the hostile space environment in which they operate. However, of the current deployment of 29 satellites in place, some have already been in operation for 12 years. To repair damaged or malfunctioning satellites is currently not economically feasible. If a significant number of satellites were to become inoperable, there could be a substantial delay before they are replaced with new satellites. A reduction in the number of operating satellites may impair the current utility of the GPS system and the growth of current and additional market opportunities.

In 2004, a Presidential policy affirmed a 1996 Presidential Decision Directive that marked the first time in the evolution of GPS that access for civilian use free of direct user fees. In addition, Presidential policy has been complemented by corresponding legislation, that was signed into law. However, there can be no assurance that the US Government will remain committed to the operation and maintenance of GPS satellites over a long period, or that the policies of the US Government for the use of GPS without charge will remain unchanged. Because of ever-increasing commercial applications of GPS, other US Government agencies may become involved in the administration or the regulation of the use of GPS signals. Any of the foregoing factors could affect the willingness of buyers of our products to select GPS-based systems instead of products based on competing technologies.

Many of our products also use signals from systems that augment GPS, such as the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) and National Differential GPS System (NDGPS). Many of these augmentation systems are operated by the federal government and rely on continued funding and maintenance of these systems. In addition, some of our products also use satellite signals from the Russian Glonass System. Any curtailment of the operating capability of these systems could result in decreased user capability thereby impacting our markets.

The European governments have begun development of an independent satellite navigation system, known as Galileo. We have access to the preliminary signal design, which is subject to change. Although an operational Galileo system is several years away, if we are unable to timely develop a commercial product, it may have a materially adverse effect on our business and operating results.


We may be Materially Affected by New Regulatory Requirements.

We are subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations that govern our operations, including the handling and disposal of non-hazardous and hazardous wastes, and emissions and discharges into the environment. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations could result in costs for corrective action, penalties, or the imposition of other liabilities.

In particular, under certain of these laws and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of property may be liable for the costs of remediating hazardous substances or petroleum products on or from its property, without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or caused, the contamination, as well as incur liability to third parties impacted by such contamination. In addition, we face increasing complexity in our product design and procurement operations as we adjust to new and upcoming requirements relating to the materials composition of many of our products. The European Union (“EU”) has adopted new directives to facilitate the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment sold in the EU. One of these is the Restriction on the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“RoHS”) directive. The RoHS directive restricts the use of lead, mercury and certain other substances in electrical and electronic products placed on the market in the European Union after July 1, 2006.

Similar laws and regulations have been or may be enacted in other regions, including in the United States, China and Japan. Other environmental regulations may require us to reengineer our products to utilize components which are more environmentally compatible and such reengineering and component substitution may result in additional costs to us. Although we do not anticipate any material adverse effects based on the nature of our operations and the effect of such laws, there is no assurance that such existing laws or future laws will not have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our Business is Subject to Disruptions and Uncertainties Caused by War or Terrorism.

Acts of war or acts of terrorism could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results, and financial condition. The threat of terrorism and war and heightened security and military response to this threat, or any future acts of terrorism, may cause further disruption to our economy and create further uncertainties. To the extent that such disruptions or uncertainties result in delays or cancellations of orders, or the manufacture or shipment of our products, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
 
We Are Exposed to Fluctuations in Currency Exchange Rates.

A significant portion of our business is conducted outside the US, and as such, we face exposure to movements in non-US currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could have a material adverse impact on our financial results and cash flows. Fluctuation in currency impacts our operating results.

Currently, we hedge only those currency exposures associated with certain assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. The hedging activities undertaken by us are intended to offset the impact of currency fluctuations on certain non-functional currency assets and liabilities. Our attempts to hedge against these risks may not be successful resulting in an adverse impact on our net income.

We Face Risks in Investing in and Integrating New Acquisitions.

We have recently acquired several companies and may in the future acquire other companies. Acquisitions of companies, divisions of companies, or products entail numerous risks, including:

·  
potential inability to successfully integrate acquired operations and products or to realize cost savings or other anticipated benefits from integration;
·  
diversion of management’s attention;
·  
loss of key employees of acquired operations;
·  
the difficulty of assimilating geographically dispersed operations and personnel of the acquired companies;
·  
the potential disruption of our ongoing business;
·  
unanticipated expenses related to such integration;
·  
the correct assessment of the relative percentages of in-process research and development expense that can be immediately written off as compared to the amount which must be amortized over the appropriate life of the asset;
·  
the impairment of relationships with employees and customers of either an acquired company or our own business;
·  
the potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired business; and
·  
inability to recover strategic investments in development stage entities.

As a result of such acquisitions, we have significant assets that include goodwill and other purchased intangibles. The testing of these intangibles under established accounting guidelines for impairment requires significant use of judgment and assumptions. Changes in business conditions could require adjustments to the valuation of these assets. In addition, losses incurred by a company in which we have an investment may have a direct impact on our financial statements or could result in our having to write-down the value of such investment. Any such problems in integration or adjustments to the value of the assets acquired could harm our growth strategy and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and compliance with debt covenants.


We May Not Be Able to Enter Into or Maintain Important Alliances.

We believe that in certain business opportunities our success will depend on our ability to form and maintain alliances with industry participants, such as Caterpillar, Nikon, and CNH Global. Our failure to form and maintain such alliances, or the pre-emption of such alliances by actions of other competitors or us, will adversely affect our ability to penetrate emerging markets. No assurances can be given that we will not experience problems from current or future alliances or that we will realize value from any such strategic alliances.

We Face Competition in Our Markets.

Our markets are highly competitive and we expect that both direct and indirect competition will increase in the future. Our overall competitive position depends on a number of factors including the price, quality and performance of our products, the level of customer service, the development of new technology and our ability to participate in emerging markets. Within each of our markets, we encounter direct competition from other GPS, optical and laser suppliers and competition may intensify from various larger US and non-US competitors and new market entrants, some of which may be our current customers. The competition in the future may, in some cases, result in price reductions, reduced margins or loss of market share, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. We believe that our ability to compete successfully in the future against existing and additional competitors will depend largely on our ability to execute our strategy to provide systems and products with significantly differentiated features compared to currently available products. We may not be able to implement this strategy successfully, and our products may not be competitive with other technologies or products that may be developed by our competitors, many of whom have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing, sales and other resources than we do.

We Must Carefully Manage Our Future Growth.

Growth in our sales or continued expansion in the scope of our operations could strain our current management, financial, manufacturing and other resources, and may require us to implement and improve a variety of operating, financial and other systems, procedures, and controls. We have recently implemented a new enterprise resource planning software system and we may experience in our financial and order management processing as a result of new procedures. Problems associated with any improvement or expansion of these systems, procedures or controls may adversely affect our operations and these systems, procedures or controls may not be designed, implemented or improved in a cost-effective and timely manner. Any failure to implement, improve and expand such systems, procedures, and controls in a timely and efficient manner could harm our growth strategy and adversely affect our financial condition and ability to achieve our business objectives.

We Are Subject to the Impact of Governmental and Other Similar Certifications.

We market certain products that are subject to governmental and similar certifications before they can be sold. For example, CE certification for radiated emissions is required for most GPS receiver and data communications products sold in the European Union. An inability to obtain such certifications in a timely manner could have an adverse effect on our operating results. Also, some of our products that use integrated radio communication technology require an end user to obtain licensing from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for frequency-band usage. These are secondary licenses that are subject to certain restrictions. An inability or delay in obtaining such certifications or changes to the rules by the FCC could adversely affect our ability to bring our products to market which could harm our customer relationships and have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
We Are Subject to the Adverse Impact of Radio Frequency Congestion.

We have certain products, such as GPS RTK systems, and surveying and mapping systems that use integrated radio communication technology requiring access to available radio frequencies allocated by the FCC (or the NTIA in the case of federal government users of this equipment) for which the end user is required to obtain a license in order to operate their equipment. In addition, access to these frequencies by state agencies is under management by state radio communications coordinators. Some bands are experiencing congestion that excludes their availability for access by state agencies in some states. To reduce congestion, the FCC announced that it will require migration of radio technology from wideband to narrowband operations in these bands. The rules require migration of users to narrowband channels by 2011. In the meantime congestion could cause FCC coordinators to restrict or refuse licenses. An inability to obtain access to these radio frequencies by end users could have an adverse effect on our operating results.

The Volatility of Our Stock Price Could Adversely Affect Your Investment in Our Common Stock.

The market price of our common stock has been, and may continue to be, highly volatile. During the second fiscal quarter of 2006, our stock price ranged from $48.52 to $39.36. We believe that a variety of factors could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate, perhaps substantially, including:

·  
announcements and rumors of developments related to our business or the industry in which we compete;
·  
quarterly fluctuations in our actual or anticipated operating results and order levels;
·  
general conditions in the worldwide economy, including fluctuations in interest rates;
·  
announcements of technological innovations;
·  
new products or product enhancements by us or our competitors;
·  
developments in patents or other intellectual property rights and litigation;
·  
developments in our relationships with our customers and suppliers; and
·  
any significant acts of terrorism against the United States.
 

In addition, in recent years the stock market in general and the markets for shares of "high-tech" companies in particular, have experienced extreme price fluctuations which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of affected companies. Any such fluctuations in the future could adversely affect the market price of our common stock, and the market price of our common stock may decline.
 
Provisions in Our Charter Documents and Under California Law Could Prevent or Delay a Change of Control, which Could Reduce the Market Price of Our Common Stock.

Certain provisions of our articles of incorporation, as amended and restated, our bylaws, as amended and restated, and the California General Corporation Law may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and could discourage a third party from acquiring, or make it more difficult for a third party to acquire, control of us without approval of our board of directors. These provisions could also limit the price that certain investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. Certain provisions allow the board of directors to authorize the issuance of preferred stock with rights superior to those of the common stock.

We have adopted a Preferred Shares Rights Agreement, commonly known as a "poison pill." The provisions described above, our poison pill and provisions of the California General Corporation Law may discourage, delay or prevent a third party from acquiring us.

TRIMBLE NAVIGATION

1988 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
(as amended January 19, 2006)

The following constitute the provisions of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan of Trimble Navigation.

1.     Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to provide employees of the Company and its Designated Subsidiaries with an opportunity to purchase Common Stock of the Company through accumulated payroll deductions. It is the intention of the Company to have the Plan qualify as an "Employee Stock Purchase Plan" under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The provisions of the Plan shall, accordingly, be construed so as to extend and limit participation in a manner consistent with the requirements of that section of the Code.

2.     Definitions.

(a)   "Board" shall mean the Board of Directors of the Company.

(b)   "Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

(c)   "Common Stock" shall mean the Common Stock of the Company.

(d)   "Company" shall mean Trimble Navigation.

(e)   "Compensation" shall mean all regular straight time gross earnings, commissions, incentive bonuses, overtime, shift premium, lead pay and other similar compensation, but excluding automobile allowances, relocation and other non-cash compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee may elect to exclude bonuses from the calculation of compensation.

(f)   "Continuous Status as an Employee" shall mean the absence of any interruption or termination of service as an Employee. Continuous Status as an Employee shall not be considered interrupted in the case of a leave of absence agreed to in writing by the Company, provided that such leave is for a period of not more than 90 days or reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute.

(g)   "Designated Subsidiaries" shall mean the Subsidi-aries which have been designated by the Board from time to time in its sole discretion as eligible to participate in the Plan.

(h)   "Employee" shall mean any person, including an officer, whose customary employment with the Company is at least twenty (20) hours per week by the Company or one of its Designated Subsidiaries and more than five (5) months in any calendar year.

(i)   "Enrollment Date" shall mean the first day of each Offering Period.




(j)   "Exercise Date" shall mean the last day of each Offering Period.

(k)   "Offering Period" shall mean, except with respect to the first Offering Period as described herein, a period of six (6) months during which an option granted pursuant to the Plan may be exercised. The first Offering Period shall commence August 15, 1988, and end December 31, 1988.

(l)   "Plan" shall mean this Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

(m)         "Subsidiary" shall mean a corporation, domestic or foreign, of which not less than 50% of the voting shares are held by the Company or a Subsidiary, whether or not such corporation now exists or is hereafter organized or acquired by the Company or a Subsidiary.

3.     Eligibility.

(a)   Any Employee as defined in paragraph 2 who has been continuously employed by the Company for at least two (2) consecu-tive months and who shall be employed by the Company on a given Enrollment Date shall be eligible to participate in the Plan. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of the first Offering Period only, any Employee defined in paragraph 2 who was employed by the Company as of August 9, 1988 shall be eligible to participate in the Plan.

(b)   Any provisions of the Plan to the contrary notwith-standing, no Employee shall be granted an option under the Plan (i) if, immediately after the grant, such Employee (or any other person whose stock would be attributed to such Employee pursuant to Section 425(d) of the Code) would own stock and/or hold outstanding options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company, or (ii) which permits his or her rights to purchase stock under all employee stock purchase plans of the Company and its subsidiaries to accrue at a rate which exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) worth of stock (determined at the fair market value of the shares at the time such option is granted) for each calendar year in which such option is outstanding at any time.

4.     Offering Periods. The Plan shall be implemented by consecutive Offering Periods with a new Offering Period commencing on or about January 1 and July 1 of each year; provided, however, that the first Offering Period shall commence on or about August 15, 1988. The Plan shall continue thereafter until termi-nated in accordance with paragraph 19 hereof. Subject to the shareholder approval requirements of paragraph 19, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have the power to change the dura-tion of Offering Periods with respect to future offerings without shareholder approval if such change is announced at least fifteen (15) days prior to the scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period to be affected.

5.     Participation.

(a)   An eligible Employee may become a participant in the Plan by completing a subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions in the form of Exhibit A to this Plan and filing it with the Company's payroll office at least five (5) business days prior to the applicable Enrollment Date, unless a later time for filing the subscription agreement is set by the Board for all eligible Employees with respect to a given Offering Period.

- 2 -


(b)   Payroll deductions for a participant shall commence on the first payroll following the Enrollment Date and shall end on the last payroll in the Offering Period to which such authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the participant as provided in paragraph 10.

6.     Payroll Deductions.

(a)   At the time a participant files his or her subscrip-tion agreement, he or she shall elect to have payroll deductions made on each payday during the Offering Period in an amount not exceeding ten percent (10%) of the Compensation which he receives on each payday during the Offering Period, and the aggregate of such payroll deductions during the Offering Period shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the participant's aggregate Compensation during said Offering Period.

(b)   All payroll deductions made for a participant shall be credited to his or her account under the Plan. A participant may not make any additional payments into such account.

(c)   A participant may discontinue his or her participa-tion in the Plan as provided in paragraph 10, or may decrease, but not increase, the rate of his or her payroll deductions during the Offering Period (within the limitations of Section 6(a)) by com-pleting or filing with the Company a new subscription agreement authorizing a change in payroll deduction rate. The change in rate shall be effective with the first full payroll period following five (5) business days after the Company's receipt of the new subscription agreement. A participant's subscription agreement shall remain in effect for successive Offering Periods unless revised as provided herein or terminated as provided in paragraph 10.

(d)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent neces-sary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and para-graph 3(b) herein, a participant's payroll deductions may be decreased to 0% at such time during any Offering Period which is scheduled to end during the current calendar year (the "Current Offering Period") that the aggregate of all payroll deductions which were previously used to purchase stock under the Plan in a prior Offering Period which ended during that calendar year plus all payroll deductions accumulated with respect to the Current Offering Period equal $21,250. Payroll deductions shall recommence at the rate provided in such participant's subscription agreement at the beginning of the first Offering Period which is scheduled to end in the following calendar year, unless terminated by the participant as provided in paragraph 10.

7.     Grant of Option.

(a)   On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period, each eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period shall be granted an option to purchase on each Exercise Date during such Offering Period up to a number of shares of the Company's Common Stock determined by dividing such Employee's payroll deductions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the Partic-ipant's account as of the Exercise Date by the lower of (i) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Enrollment Date or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Exercise Date; provided that in no event shall an Employee be permitted to purchase during each Offering Period more than a number of shares determined by dividing $12,500 by the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Enrollment Date, and provided further that such purchase shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3(b) and 12 hereof. Exercise of the option shall occur as provided in Section 8, unless the participant has withdrawn pursuant to Section 10, and shall expire on the last day of the Offering Period. Fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock shall be determined as provided in Section 7(b) herein.

- 3 -


(b)   The option price per share of the shares offered in a given Offering Period shall be the lower of: (i) 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Common Stock of the Company on the Enrollment Date; or (ii) 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Common Stock of the Company on the Exercise Date. The fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on a given date shall be determined by the Board in its discretion; provided, however, that where there is a public market for the Common Stock, the fair market value per share shall be the closing price of the Common Stock for such date, as reported by the NASDAQ National Market System, or, in the event the Common Stock is listed on a stock exchange, the fair market value per share shall be the closing price on such exchange on such date, as reported in the Wall Street Journal.

8.     Exercise of Option. Unless a participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in paragraph 10 below, his or her option for the purchase of shares will be exercised automatically on the Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full shares subject to option shall be purchased for such participant at the applicable option price with the accumulated payroll deductions in his or her account. No fractional shares will be purchased and any payroll deductions accumulated in a participant's account which are not used to purchase shares shall remain in the participant's account for the subsequent Offering Period, subject to an earlier with-drawal as provided in paragraph 10. During a participant's life-time, a participant's option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her.

9.                 Delivery. Unless a participant makes an election to delay the issuance of Certificate representing purchased shares, as promptly as practicable after each Exercise Date on which a pur-chase of shares occurs, the Company shall arrange the delivery to each participant, as appropriate, of a certificate representing the shares purchased upon exercise of his or her option. A partic-ipant may make an election to delay the issuance of stock certifi-cates representing shares purchased under the Plan by giving written notice to the Company the form of Exhibit D to this Plan. Any such election shall remain in effect until it is revoked by the participant or, if earlier, upon the termination of the partic-ipant's Continuous Status as an Employee. The Company may limit the time or times during which participants may revoke such elec-tions, except that a participant shall automatically receive a certificate as soon as practicable following termination of his or her Continuous Status as an Employee and that participants shall be given the opportunity to revoke such elections at least once each calendar year.

- 4 -


10.               Withdrawal; Termination of Employment.

(a)   A participant may withdraw all but not less than all the payroll deductions credited to his or her account and not yet used to exercise his or her option under the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the Company in the form of Exhibit B to this Plan. All of the participant's payroll deductions credited to his or her account will be paid to such participant promptly after receipt of notice of withdrawal and such participant's option for the Offering Period will be automatically terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of shares will be made during the Offering Period. If a participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions will not resume at the begin-ning of the succeeding Offering Period unless the participant delivers to the Company a new subscription agreement.

(b)   Upon termination of the participant's Continuous Status as an Employee prior to the Exercise Date for any reason, including retirement or death, the payroll deductions credited to such participant's account during the Offering Period but not yet used to exercise the option will be returned to such participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under paragraph 14, and such participant's option will be automatically terminated.

(c)   In the event an Employee fails to remain in Contin-uous Status as an Employee of the Company for at least twenty (20) hours per week during an Offering Period in which the Employee is a participant, he or she will be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan and the payroll deductions credited to his or her account will be returned to such participant and such participant's option terminated.

(d)   A participant's withdrawal from an Offering Period will not have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan which may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in succeeding Offering Periods which commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the participant withdraws.

11.   Interest. No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions of a participant in the Plan.

12.   Stock.

(a)   The maximum number of shares of the Company's Common Stock which shall be made available for sale under the Plan shall be 5,775,000 shares, subject to adjustment upon changes in capitali-zation of the Company as provided in paragraph 18. If on a given Exercise Date the number of shares with respect to which options are to be exercised exceeds the number of shares then available under the Plan, the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares remaining available for purchase in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as it shall determine to be equitable.

(b)   The participant will have no interest or voting right in shares covered by his option until such option has been exercised.

(c)   Shares to be delivered to a participant under the Plan will be registered in the name of the participant or in the name of the participant and his or her spouse.

13.   Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the Board of the Company or a committee of members of the Board appointed by the Board. The administration, interpretation or application of the Plan by the Board or its committee shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all participants. Members of the Board who are eligible Employees are permitted to participate in the Plan.

- 5 -



14.   Designation of Beneficiary.

(a)   A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant's account under the Plan in the event of such partici-pant's death subsequent to an Exercise Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to such participant of such shares and cash. In addition, a participant may file a written designa-tion of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the partici-pant's account under the Plan in the event of such participant's death prior to exercise of the option.

(b)   Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the participant at any time by written notice. In the event of the death of a participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such partic-ipant's death, the Company shall deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.

15.   Transferability. Neither payroll deductions credited to a participant's account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive shares under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in paragraph 14 hereof) by the participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw funds from an Offering Period in accordance with paragraph 10.

16.   Use of Funds. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company under the Plan may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions.

17.   Reports. Individual accounts will be maintained for each participant in the Plan. Statements of account will be given to participating Employees semi-annually promptly following the Exercise Date, which statements will set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the per share purchase price, the number of shares purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any.

18.   Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan which has not yet been exercised and the number of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but have not yet been placed under option (collectively, the "Reserves"), as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan which has not yet been exercised, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclas-sification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock 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 Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issue 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 option.

- 6 -



In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Offering Period will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Board. In the event of a proposed sale of all or substan-tially all of the assets of the Company, or the merger of the Com-pany with or into another corporation, any Purchase Periods then in progress shall be shortened by setting a new Exercise Date (the "New Exercise Date") and any Offering Periods then in progress shall end on the New Exercise Date. The New Exercise Date shall be before the date of the Company's proposed sale or merger. The Board shall notify each participant in writing, at least ten (10) business days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the participant's option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the participant's option shall be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the participant has with-drawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.

19.   Amendment or Termination. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time and for any reason terminate or amend the Plan. Except as provided in paragraph 18, no such termination can affect options previously granted, provided that an Offering Period may be terminated by the Board of Directors on any Exercise Date if the Board determines that the termination of the Plan is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Except as provided in paragraph 18, no amendment may make any change in any option theretofore granted which adversely affects the rights of any participant. In addition, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 423 of the Code (or any successor rule or provision or any other applicable law or regula-tion), the Company shall obtain shareholder approval in such a manner and to such a degree as so required.

20.   Notices. All notices or other communications by a participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

21.   Shareholder Approval. Continuance of the Plan shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company within twelve months before or after the date the Plan is adopted. Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the manner and degree required under the applicable state and federal tax and securities laws.

22.   Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Shares shall not be issued with respect to an option unless the exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the shares may then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

- 7 -


As a condition to the exercise of an option, the Company may require the person exercising such option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the shares are being purchased 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 by any of the aforementioned applicable provisions of law.

23.         Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of its adoption by the Board of Directors or its approval by the shareholders of the Company as described in para-graph 21. It shall continue in effect for a term of twenty (20) years unless sooner terminated under paragraph 19.

(i)   to select the Service Providers to whom Awards or Options may be granted hereunder;

(ii)   to determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each Award or Option granted hereunder;

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

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

(vi)   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 satisfying applicable foreign laws;

(viii)   to allow Awardees or Optionees to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option or vesting of an Award that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld. The Fair Market Value of the 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 an Awardee or Optionee to have Shares withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable;

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

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

- 5 -


(c)   Effect of Administrator's Decision. The Administrator's decisions, determinations and interpretations shall be final and binding on all Awardees and Optionees and any other holders of Awards or Options.

5.   Eligibility. Nonstatutory Stock Options and Awards may be granted to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees.

6.   Limitations.

(a)   Each Option shall be designated in the Option Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 6(a), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.

(b)   Neither the Plan nor any Award or Option shall confer upon an Awardee or Optionee any right with respect to continuing that individual’s relationship as a Service Provider with the Company, nor shall they interfere in any way with the Awardee’s or Optionee's right or the Company's right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause.

(c)   The following limitations shall apply to grants of Awards and Options:

(i)   No Service Provider shall be granted, in any fiscal year of the Company, Options and Awards covering more than 300,000 Shares.

(ii)   In connection with his or her initial service, a Service Provider may be granted Options and Awards covering an additional 450,000 Shares, which shall not count against the limit set forth in subsection (i) above.

(iii)   The foregoing limitations shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company's capitalization as described in Section 13.

(iv)   If an Award or Option is cancelled in the same fiscal year of the Company in which it was granted (other than in connection with a transaction described in Section13), the cancelled Option or Award will be counted against the limits set forth in subsections (i) and (ii) above.

7.   Stock Awards. Awards may be granted either alone or in addition to Options granted under the Plan. Upon each vesting date, provided that the Awardee is then a Service Provider, the Awardee shall be entitled to receive the number of Shares vested without payment of any consideration to the Company, unless otherwise required by applicable law. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, Awardees will have full voting rights and be entitled to regular cash dividends with respect to the Shares subject to their Awards. An Award Agreement may provide that certain restrictions will apply to any such dividends.

- 6 -


8.   Term of Plan. Subject to Section 19 of the Plan, the Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless terminated earlier under Section 15 of the Plan.

9.   Term of Award or Option. The term of each Award or Option shall be ten (10) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement or Option Agreement. However, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement.

10.   Option Exercise Price and Consideration.

(a) 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, subject to the following:

(i)   In the case of an Incentive Stock Option

(A)   granted to an Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(B)   granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in paragraph (A) immediately above, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(ii)   In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(iii)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a merger or consolidation of or by the Company with or into another corporation, the purchase or acquisition of property or stock by the Company of another corporation, any spin-off or other distribution of stock or property by the Company or another corporation, any reorganization of the Company, or any partial or complete liquidation of the Company, if such action by the Company or other corporation results in a significant number of Employees or employees being transferred to a new employer or discharged, or in the creation or severance of the Parent-Subsidiary relationship.

(b)   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 con-ditions that must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised.

(c)   Form of Consideration. The Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Such consideration may consist entirely of:

- 7 -


(i)    cash;

(ii)   check;

(iii)   promissory note;

(iv)   other Shares which, in the case of Shares acquired directly or indirectly from the Company, (A) have been owned by the Optionee for more than six (6) 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;

(v)   consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan;

(vi)   a reduction in the amount of any Company liability to the Optionee, including any liability attributable to the Optionee's participation in any Company-sponsored deferred compensation program or arrangement;

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

(viii)   such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

11.   Exercise of Option; Vesting of Awards.

(a)   Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder. 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. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Awards and Options granted hereunder shall be suspended during any unpaid leave of absence. 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 or such person’s authorized agent, 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 Optionee. Until the Shares are 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 shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised or the vesting date of an Award. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Sections 7 and 13 of the Plan.

Exercising an Option in any manner shall decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for delivery under the Award or Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.

- 8 -


(b)   Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider. If an Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider, other than upon the Optionee's death or Disability, the Optionee 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 (3) months following the Optionee's termination. If an Awardee ceases to be a Service Provider, for any reason, all unvested Shares covered by his or her Award shall be forfeited. If, on the date of termination, the Optionee or Awardee is not vested as to his or her entire Option or Award, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option or Award shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee 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.

(c)   Disability of Optionee. If an Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the Optionee's Disability, the Optionee may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent 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 twelve (12) months following the Optionee's termination. If, on the date of termination, the Optionee 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 Optionee 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.

(d)   Death of Optionee. If an Optionee dies while a Service Provider or within thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time not exceeding three (3) months as is determined by the Administrator), the Option may be exercised following the Optionee's death within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of 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 Optionee's estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee's will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following Optionee's death. If, at the time of death, Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall immediately revert to the Plan. 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.

12.   Transferability of Awards and Options. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award or 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. If the Administrator makes an Award or Option transferable, suchAward or Option shall contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.

- 9 -



13.   Adjustments; Dissolution; Merger or Change in Control.

(a)   Adjustments. In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, may (in its sole discretion) adjust the number and class of Shares that may be delivered under the Plan and/or the number, class, and price of Shares covered by each outstanding Award and Option and the numerical limits of Section 6.

(b)   Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify each Awardee and Optionee as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for an Optionee to have the right to exercise his or her Option until ten (10) days prior to such transaction as to all of the Optioned Stock covered thereby, including Shares as to which the Option would not otherwise be exercisable. The Administrator in its discretion may provide that the vesting of an Award accelerate at any time prior to such transaction. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Option will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, and unvested Shares subject to an Award will be forfeited immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

(c)   Merger or Change in Control. In the event of a merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or a Change in Control, each outstanding Award and Option shall be assumed or an equivalent award, option or right substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event the successor corporation does not agree to assume the Award or Option, or substitute an equivalent option or right, the Administrator shall, in lieu of such assumption or substitution, provide for the Awardee or Optionee to have the right to vest in and exercise the Option as to all of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which the Option would not otherwise be vested or exercisable, and in the case of an Award, to accelerate the vesting of the Award. If the Administrator makes an Option fully vested and exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or Change in Control, the Administrator shall notify the Optionee that the Option shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and the Option will terminate upon the expiration of such period. If, in such a merger or Change in Control, the Award or Option is assumed or an equivalent award or option or right is substituted by such successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of such successor corporation, and if during a one-year period after the effective date of such merger or Change in Control, the awardee’s or Optionee's status as a Service Provider is terminated for any reason other than the Awardee’s or Optionee's voluntary termination of such relationship, then (i) in the case of an Option, the Optionee shall have the right within three (3) months thereafter to exercise the Option as to all of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which the Option would not be otherwise exercisable, effective as of the date of such termination and (ii) in the case of an Award, the Award shall be fully vested on the date of such termination.

- 10 -


For the purposes of this subsection (c), the Award or Option shall be considered assumed if, following the merger or Change in Control, the option or right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Award or Optioned Stock subject to the Option immediately prior to the merger or Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger or Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option, for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option, and upon the vesting of an Award, for each Share of Awarded Stock, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or Change in Control.

14.   Date of Grant. Except for Optionsgranted to Outside Directors under Section 15 hereof, the date of grant of an Award or Option shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award or Option, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be provided to each Awardee and Optionee within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

15.   Option Grants to Outside Directors. All grants of Options to Outside Directors shall be automatic and non-discretionary and shall be made strictly in accordance with the following provisions:

(i)   No person shall have any discretion to select which Outside Directors shall be granted Options or to determine the number of Shares to be covered by Options granted to Outside Directors.

(ii)   Each Outside Director shall be automatically granted an Option to purchase 15,000 Shares (the "First Option") upon the date on which such person first becomes a Director, whether through election by the shareholders of the Company or appointment by the Board of Directors to fill a vacancy.

(iii)   After a First Option has been granted to any Outside Director, each Outside Director shall thereafter be automatically granted an Option to purchase 7,500 Shares (a "Subsequent Option") on the day of each subsequent annual shareholders meeting at which such Outside Director is reelected to an additional term; provided, however, that no Subsequent Option shall be granted for the first annual shareholders meeting following the grant of a First Option to any director.

(iv)   In the event that the number of Shares remaining available for grant under the Plan is less than the number of Shares required for an automatic grant pursuant to either subsection (ii) or (iii) hereof, then each such automatic grant shall be for that number of Shares determined by dividing the total number of Shares remaining available for grant by the number of Outside Directors on the automatic grant date. Any further automatic grants shall then be deferred until such time, if any, as additional Shares become available for grant under the Plan through action to increase the number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan or through cancellation or expiration of Options previously granted under the Plan.

- 11 -


(v)   The terms of an Option granted hereunder shall be consistent with the requirements set forth elsewhere in this plan, except that the Option shall become exercisable in installments cumulatively with respect to 1/36 of the Shares for each complete calendar month after the date of grant of such Option.

(vi)   The number of Shares granted pursuant to subsections (ii) and (iii) hereof shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company's capitalization as described in Section 13.

16.   Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

(a)   Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan.

(b)   Shareholder Approval. The Company shall obtain shareholder approval of this Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws and paragraph (c) below.

(c)   Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan or any Award or Option shall (i) impair the rights of any Awardee or Optionee, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Awardee or Optionee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Awardee or Optionee and the Company or (ii) permit the reduction of the exercise price of an Option after it has been granted (except for adjustments made pursuant to Section 13), unless approved by the Company’s shareholders. Neither may the Administrator, without the approval of the Company’s shareholders, cancel any outstanding Option and replace it with a new Option with a lower exercise price, where the economic effect would be the same as reducing the exercise price of the cancelled Option. Termination of the Plan shall not affect the Administrator's ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards and Options granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination. Any increase in the number of shares subject to the Plan, other than pursuant to Section 13 hereof, shall be approved by the Company’s shareholders.

17.   Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares; Deferred Compensation Legislation.

(a)   Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the vesting of an Award unless the exercise of such Option and 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. The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and Awards and Options granted under the Plan may be amended for puposes of such compliance.

(b)   Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Company may require the person exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased 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.

- 12 -


18.   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.

19.   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.

20.    Shareholder Approval. The Plan shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan is adopted. Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws.

If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code.

B.    Exercise of Option.

(a)   Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice of Grant and the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Option Agreement.

The Exercise Notice shall be completed by the Optionee and delivered to the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Exercised Shares. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of the Exercise Price.

No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of this Option unless such issuance and exercise complies with Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Exercised Shares shall be considered transferred to the Optionee on the date the Option is exercised with respect to such Exercised Shares.

D.    Non-Transferability of Option.

This Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by the Optionee. The terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Optionee.

E.    Term of Option.

This Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the Notice of Grant, and may be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the terms of this Option Agreement.

If the Option granted to Optionee herein is an ISO, and if Optionee sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the later of (1) the date two years after the Date of Grant, or (2) the date one year after the date of exercise, the Optionee shall immediately notify the Company in writing of such disposition.
