(e) Amended Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On March 25, 2010, at the 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Synopsys, Inc. (“Synopsys”), Synopsys stockholders approved the amended Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Amended Purchase Plan”), which the Synopsys Compensation Committee and Board of Directors had previously approved, subject to such stockholder approval. Synopsys executive officers are permitted to participate in the Amended Purchase Plan.

The Amended Purchase Plan amends our prior Employee Stock Purchase Plan and International Employee Stock Purchase Plan to (i) increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance by 5,000,000 shares, (ii) conform the plan document and offering documents to recent regulations related to Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 423”) including, without limitation, providing for a single plan document that sets forth the applicable maximum number of shares that may be issued under the plan and the maximum limitations on the terms of plan offerings, (iii) permit flexibility to have multiple offering documents such as a U.S. offering document and an international offering document, and for each separate offering document to set forth the specific terms of such offering, (iv) permit flexibility to approve offerings with varying terms, subject to the maximum limitations of Section 423, (v) permit flexibility to approve offerings with terms that are not intended to comply with the requirements of Section 423, including, without limitation, for our eligible employees who are not subject to U.S. tax laws, and (vi) provide for other clarifying changes to the plan and offering documents, consistent with Section 423.

A summary of the Amended Purchase Plan is set forth in our proxy statement for the 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 5, 2010 (the “Proxy Statement”). That summary and the above description of the Amended Purchase Plan do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Amended Purchase Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.21 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Employee means any person who is employed for purposes of Section 423(b)(4) of the Code by the Company or a Corporate Affiliate. However, service solely as a director, or payment of a fee for such services, shall not cause a director to be considered an “Employee” for purposes of the Plan.

Fair Market Value means fair market value per share of Common Stock, as determined on any relevant date in accordance with the following procedures:

(i) If the Common Stock is listed on any established stock exchange or traded on any established market, the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock shall be the closing sales price for such stock as quoted on such exchange or market (or the exchange or market with the greatest volume of trading in the Common Stock) on the date of determination, as reported in such source as the Board deems reliable. Unless otherwise provided by the Board, if there is no closing sales price for the Common Stock on the date of determination, then the Fair Market Value shall be the closing selling price (or closing bid if no sales were reported) on the last preceding date for which such quotation exists.

1

(ii) In the absence of such markets for the Common Stock, then the Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock on such date shall be determined by the Board, after taking into account such factors as the Board deems appropriate.

III. ADMINISTRATION

A. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or its designee (each such designee is a “Plan Administrator”). As of the Effective Date, the Board has designated the Compensation Committee of the Board as the Plan Administrator. The Board or its Compensation Committee may from time to time select another committee or persons to be responsible as Plan Administrator for any Plan transactions not subject to Rule 16b-3, which Plan Administrator shall be subject to the overall supervision of the Compensation Committee or the Board, as applicable. Unless otherwise specified herein, the Plan Administrator shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board that have been delegated to the Plan Administrator, including the power to delegate to a Committee or other persons any of the administrative powers the Plan Administrator is authorized to exercise (and except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all references to the Board in this Plan or in any Offering Document shall thereafter be deemed references to the

2

Plan Administrator or its designee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. The Board retains the authority to concurrently administer the Plan with the Plan Administrator and may, at any time, revest in the Board some or all of the powers previously delegated to the Plan Administrator.

B. The Board may administer, interpret and amend the Plan in any manner it believes to be desirable (including amendments to outstanding Purchase Rights and the designation of a brokerage firm at which accounts for the holding of shares purchased under the Plan must be established by each Eligible Employee desiring to participate in the Plan), and any such interpretation shall be final and binding on all parties who have an interest in the Plan.

C. Any Plan Administrator that is not a Committee may not, without the approval of the Board, or without stockholder approval to the extent required under Section X: (i) increase the number of shares issuable under the Plan, except that the Plan Administrator shall have the authority, exercisable without such approval, to effect adjustments to the extent necessary to reflect changes in the Company’s capital structure pursuant to Section VI.B; (ii) alter the purchase price formula so as to reduce the purchase price payable for the shares issuable under the Plan; or (iii) materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan or materially modify the requirements for eligibility to participate in the Plan.

IV. OFFERINGS

A. The Board may from time to time grant Purchase Rights to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Plan to Eligible Employees in an Offering (consisting of one or more Periods of Participation) on an Offering Date or Offering Dates selected by the Board and as specified in an Offering Document. Each Offering Document shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem appropriate, which shall comply with the terms of the Plan, and which shall designate the Participating Companies for such Offering. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Offering Document, with respect to each Offering in effect under the Offering Document each Participating Company shall be considered for purposes of the Plan to have its own separate Offering for the Eligible Employees employed by such Participating Company, so that no two Participating Companies shall participate in the same Offering.

B. The terms and conditions of an Offering shall be set forth in an Offering Document that is incorporated by reference into the Plan and treated as part of the Plan. The provisions of separate Offerings under the Plan need not be identical, but each Offering Document shall include (through incorporation of the provisions of this Plan by reference in the Offering Document) the Offering Period, which period shall not exceed twenty-seven (27) months beginning with the Offering Date, and the substance of the provisions contained in Sections IV through VII, inclusive.

C. If a Participant has more than one Purchase Right outstanding under the Plan, unless he or she otherwise indicates in agreements or notices delivered hereunder: (i) each agreement or notice delivered by that Participant shall be deemed to apply to all of his or her Purchase Rights under the Plan, and (ii) a Purchase Right with a lower exercise price (or an earlier-granted Purchase Right, if different Purchase Rights have identical exercise prices) shall be exercised to the fullest possible extent before a Purchase Right with a higher exercise price (or a later-granted Purchase Right if different Purchase Rights have identical exercise prices) shall be exercised.

D. The Board shall have the discretion to structure an Offering so that if the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the first day of a new Purchase Period within that Offering is less than or equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Offering Date, then (i) that Offering shall terminate immediately, and (ii) the Participants in such terminated Offering shall be automatically enrolled in a new Offering beginning on the first day of such new Purchase Period.

3

V. ELIGIBILITY

A. Purchase Rights may be granted only to employees of the Company or, as the Board may designate, to employees of a Corporate Affiliate. Except as provided in Section V.B, an Employee shall not be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights under the Plan unless, on the Offering Date, such Employee has been in the employ of the Company or a Corporate Affiliate, as the case may be, for such continuous period preceding such Offering Date as the Board may require pursuant to the Offering Document, but in no event shall Offerings intended to qualify under Code Section 423 require that the period of continuous employment be greater than two (2) years. In addition, the Board may provide in the Offering Document that no employee shall be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights under the Plan unless, on the Offering Date, such employee’s customary employment with the Company or the Corporate Affiliate is for more than twenty (20) hours per week (or such lesser number of hours per week as the Board may approve for an Offering) and more than five (5) months per calendar year (or such lesser number of months per calendar year as the Board may approve for the Offering).

B. The Board may provide in an Offering Document that each person who, during the course of an Offering, first becomes an Eligible Employee shall, on a date or dates specified in the Offering Document which coincides with the day on which such person becomes an Eligible Employee or that occurs thereafter, receive a Purchase Right under that Offering, which Purchase Right shall thereafter be deemed to be a part of that Offering. Such Purchase Right shall have the same characteristics as any Purchase Rights originally granted under that Offering, as described herein, except that:

(i) the date on which such Purchase Right is granted shall be the “Offering Date” of such Purchase Right for all purposes, including determination of the exercise price of such Purchase Right;

(ii) the period of the Offering with respect to such Purchase Right shall begin on its Offering Date and end coincident with the end of such Offering; and

(iii) the Board may provide that if such person first becomes an Eligible Employee within a specified period of time before the end of the Offering, he or she shall not receive any Purchase Right under that Offering.

C. No Employee shall be eligible for the grant of any Purchase Rights under the Plan if, immediately after any such Purchase Rights are granted, such Employee owns 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 Corporate Affiliate. For purposes of this Section V.C., the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in determining the stock ownership of any Employee, and stock that such Employee may purchase under all outstanding Purchase Rights shall be treated as stock owned by such Employee.

D. As specified by Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, an Eligible Employee may be granted Purchase Rights under the Plan only if such Purchase Rights, together with any other rights granted under all employee stock purchase plans of the Company and any Corporate Affiliates, do not permit such Eligible Employee’s rights to purchase stock of the Company or any Corporate Affiliate to accrue at a rate that exceeds twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000) of Fair Market Value of such stock (determined at the time such rights are granted and, with respect to the Plan, as of their respective Offering Dates) for each calendar year in which such rights are outstanding at any time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such limitation shall not apply to Eligible Employees participating in an Offering that is not intended to qualify as a qualified employee stock purchase plan offering under Code Section 423, unless otherwise provided in the Offering Document.

E. Officers of the Company and any designated Corporate Affiliate, if they are otherwise Eligible Employees, shall be eligible to participate in Offerings under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may provide in an Offering that Employees who are highly compensated Employees within the meaning of Section 423(b)(4)(D) of the Code shall not be eligible to participate.

4

VI. STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN

A. The Common Stock purchasable by Participants under the Plan shall, solely in the discretion of the Board, be made available from either authorized but unissued shares of the Common Stock or from shares of Common Stock reacquired by the Company, including shares of Common Stock purchased on the open market. The total number of shares that may be issued under the Plan shall not exceed 30,700,000 shares. If any Purchase Right granted under the Plan shall for any reason terminate without having been exercised, the shares of Common Stock not purchased under such Purchase Right shall again become available for issuance under the Plan.

B. In the event any change is made to the Company’s outstanding Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares or other change affecting such outstanding Common Stock as a class without receipt of consideration, then appropriate adjustments shall be made by the Board to (i) the class and maximum number of shares issuable over the term of the Plan, (ii) any share limitations in an Offering on the maximum number of shares purchasable under the Offering; and (iii) the class and number of shares and the price per share of the Common Stock subject to each Purchase Right at the time outstanding under the Plan. Such adjustments shall be designed to preclude the dilution or enlargement of rights and benefits under the Plan.

VII. PURCHASE RIGHTS; PURCHASE PRICE

A. Maximum Payroll Deductions. The maximum payroll deduction authorized by the Participant for purposes of acquiring shares of Common Stock under the Plan will be designated by the Board in the Offering Document for the Offering and may not exceed a maximum of fifteen percent (15%) of the Participant’s Earnings (as defined by the Board in such Offering Document) paid to the Participant for payroll periods that are applicable to the Offering Period, as established by the Board for such Offering.

B. Enrollment Agreement. An Employee who participates in the Plan for a particular Offering must complete and submit to the Company an enrollment agreement in the form and in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the Board (which may include electronic enrollment). Each such enrollment agreement shall authorize an amount of payroll deductions expressed as a percentage of the submitting Participant’s Earnings (as defined in each Offering Document) for payroll periods that are applicable to the Offering Period (not to exceed the maximum percentage specified by the Board in the Offering Document). To the extent provided in the Offering Document, a Participant may thereafter reduce (including to zero) or increase his or her payroll deductions.

C. Purchase Price. Common Stock shall be issuable on any Purchase Date at a purchase price equal to 85 percent of the lower of (i) the Fair Market Value per share on the Offering Date or (ii) the Fair Market Value per share on the Purchase Date.

D. Number of Purchasable Shares. The number of shares purchasable per Participant on each Purchase Date within an Offering shall be the number of whole shares obtained by dividing the amount collected from the Participant through payroll deductions applicable to the Offering Period (after conversion into U.S. Dollars, if necessary) by the purchase price in effect on the Purchase Date. In connection with each Offering made under the Plan, the Board may specify (i) a maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by any Participant on any Purchase Date during such Offering, and (ii) a maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by all Participants pursuant to such Offering. In addition, in connection with each Offering that contains more than one Purchase Date: (i) the Board may specify a maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by all Participants on any Purchase Date under the Offering, and (ii) if the aggregate purchase of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Purchase Rights granted under the Offering would exceed any such maximum aggregate number, then, in the absence of any Board action otherwise, a pro rata allocation of the shares of Common Stock available shall be made in as nearly a uniform manner as shall be practicable and equitable.

5

E. Condition to Exercise of Purchase Rights. No Purchase Rights may be exercised to any extent unless the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such exercise under the Plan are covered by an effective registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) and the Plan is in material compliance with all applicable federal, state, foreign and other securities and other laws applicable to the Plan. If on a Purchase Date during any Offering the shares of Common Stock are not so registered or the Plan is not in such compliance, no Purchase Rights of any Offering shall be exercised on such Purchase Date, and the Purchase Date shall be delayed until the shares of Common Stock are subject to such an effective registration statement and the Plan is in such compliance, except that the Purchase Date shall not be delayed more than twelve (12) months and the Purchase Date shall in no event be more than twenty-seven (27) months from the Offering Date for the Offering. If, on the Purchase Date under any Offering, as delayed to the maximum extent permissible, the shares of Common Stock are not registered and the Plan is not in such compliance, no Purchase Rights of any outstanding Offering shall be exercised and all contributed payroll deductions that accumulated during the Offering (reduced to the extent, if any, such contributions have been used to acquire shares of Common Stock) shall be distributed to the Participants without interest. The Company shall seek to obtain from each federal, state, foreign or other regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to issue and sell shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Purchase Rights. If, after commercially reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority that counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell Common Stock upon exercise of such Purchase Rights unless and until such authority is obtained.

F. Payment. Payment for the Common Stock purchased under the Plan shall be effected by means of the Participant’s authorized payroll deductions (after conversion into U.S. Dollars, if necessary) accumulated for the Period of Participation. The amounts so collected shall be credited to the Participant’s bookkeeping account under the Plan, but no interest shall be paid on the balance outstanding in such account. The amounts collected from a Participant may be commingled with the general assets of the Company and may be used for general corporate purposes. To the extent specifically provided in the Offering Document, in addition to making contributions by payroll deductions, a Participant may make contributions through the payment by cash or check prior to each Purchase Date of the Offering.

G. Termination of Purchase Right. Unless otherwise provided in the Offering Document, the following provisions shall govern the termination of outstanding Purchase Rights in effect under the Offering:

(i) A Participant may, at any time prior to the last five (5) business days of the Period of Participation, terminate his /her outstanding Purchase Right under the Plan by filing the prescribed notification form with the Board. No further payroll deductions shall be collected from the Participant with respect to the terminated Purchase Right, and any payroll deductions collected for the Period of Participation in which such termination occurs shall be refunded without interest.

(ii) The termination of such Purchase Right shall be irrevocable, and the Participant may not subsequently rejoin the Offering for which such terminated Purchase Right was granted. In order to resume participation in any subsequent Offering, such individual must re-enroll in the Plan.

H. Stock Purchase. Shares of Common Stock shall automatically be purchased on behalf of each Participant (other than Participants whose payroll deductions have previously been refunded or set aside for refund in accordance with the “Termination of Purchase Right” provisions above) on each Purchase Date (after conversion into U.S. Dollars, if necessary). The purchase shall be effected by applying each Participant’s payroll deductions accumulated for the Period of Participation ending on such Purchase Date to the purchase of whole shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitation on the maximum number of purchasable shares set forth above) at the purchase price in effect on such Purchase Date. Any payroll deductions not applied to such purchase (a) because insufficient to purchase a whole share or (b) by reason of the limitation on the maximum number of shares purchasable by the Participant on such Purchase Date shall be promptly refunded to the Participant without interest. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of Purchase Rights.

6

I. Rights as Stockholder. A Participant shall have no stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to his/her outstanding Purchase Right until the shares are actually purchased on the Participant’s behalf in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Plan. No adjustments shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date of such purchase.

J. Assignability. No Purchase Right granted under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution following the participant’s death, and during the Participant’s lifetime the Purchase Right shall be exercisable only by the Participant.

K. Change in Ownership. Should the Company or its stockholders enter into an agreement to dispose of all or substantially all of the assets or outstanding capital stock of the Company by means of:

(i) a sale, merger or other reorganization in which the Company will not be the surviving corporation (other than a reorganization effected primarily to change the State in which the Company is incorporated), or

(ii) a reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s outstanding voting stock is transferred to holders different from those who held the stock immediately prior to the reverse merger,

then all outstanding Purchase Rights under the Plan shall automatically be exercised immediately prior to the consummation of such sale, merger, reorganization or reverse merger by applying the accumulated payroll deductions of each Participant (after conversion into U.S. Dollars, if necessary) for the Period of Participation in which the transaction occurs to the purchase of whole shares of Common Stock at eighty-five percent (85%) of the lower of (i) the Fair Market Value per share on the Offering Date for the Offering in which such transaction occurs or (ii) the Fair Market Value per share immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction. However, the applicable share limitations of Section V and any share purchase limitations set forth in the Offering Document shall continue to apply to any such purchase. The Company shall use its best efforts to provide at least ten (10) days’ advance written notice of the occurrence of any such sale, merger, reorganization or reverse merger, and Participants shall, following the receipt of such notice, have the right to terminate their outstanding Purchase Rights in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Section VII.

VIII. STATUS OF PLAN UNDER FEDERAL TAX LAWS

The Plan is designed to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan under Code Section 423, so that Offerings under the Plan may qualify as qualified employee stock purchase plan offerings under Code Section 423, and all shares reserved for issuance under the Plan may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Purchase Rights that qualify as qualified employee stock purchase rights under Code Section 423. However, the Board may in its sole discretion determine to approve Offerings under the Plan that are not intended to meet the requirements of Code Section 423, including, without limitation, Offerings in which Eligible Employees who are not subject to U.S. tax laws may participate.

IX. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

A. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan at any time, including amendments to outstanding Purchase Rights. Subject to the requirements of Section III, the Plan Administrator may amend the Plan and outstanding Purchase Rights. However, stockholder approval shall be required for any amendment of the Plan that:

(i) increase the number of shares issuable under the Plan, except that the Board shall have the authority, exercisable without such stockholder approval, to effect adjustments to the extent necessary to reflect changes in the Company’s capital structure pursuant to Section VI.B;

(ii) alter the purchase price formula so as to reduce the purchase price payable for the shares issuable under the Plan; or

7

(iii) materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan or materially modify the requirements for eligibility to participate in the Plan;

but in each of (i) through (iii) above only to the extent stockholder approval is required by applicable law or listing requirements.

B. The Board may elect to terminate any or all outstanding Purchase Rights at any time. In the event the Plan is terminated, the Board may also elect to terminate outstanding Purchase Rights either immediately or upon completion of the purchase of shares on the next Purchase Date, or may elect to permit Purchase Rights to expire in accordance with their terms (and participation to continue through such expiration dates). If Purchase Rights are terminated prior to expiration, all funds contributed to the Plan that have not been used to purchase shares shall be returned to the Participants as soon as administratively feasible.

X. GENERAL PROVISIONS

A. The Plan originally become effective on the Original Effective Date. This amended and restated Plan document became effective on the Effective Date, subject to stockholder approval at the 2010 annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders.

B. All costs and expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan shall be paid by the Company.

C. Neither the action of the Company in establishing the Plan, nor any action taken under the Plan by the Board, nor any provision of the Plan itself shall be construed so as to grant any person the right to remain in the employ of the Company or any of its Corporate Affiliates for any period of specific duration.

D. The provisions of the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without resort to that State’s conflict-of-laws rules.

E. If the Board in its discretion so elects, it may retain a brokerage firm, bank, or other financial institution to assist in the purchase of shares, delivery of reports, or other administrative aspects of the Plan. If the Board so elects, each Participant shall (unless prohibited by the laws of the nation of his or her employment or residence) be deemed upon enrollment in the Plan to have authorized the establishment of an account on his or her behalf at such institution. If the Board in its discretion so elects, shares purchased by a Participant under the Plan shall be held in the account in the name in which the share certificate would otherwise be issued pursuant to Section VII until such shares are sold.

III. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms and conditions of each Award (including the timing and pricing of option grants) shall be determined by the express terms and conditions of the Plan. To the extent not inconsistent with the foregoing, the Board shall have the power to construe and interpret the Plan and Awards granted under it, and to establish, amend, and revoke rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan. All such interpretations and constructions made by the Board shall be final and binding on all parties who have an interest in the Plan. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may (i) correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan or in any Stock Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Agreement, in a manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective, (ii) to amend the Plan or an Award as provided in Section VIII, or (iii) to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as the Board deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board shall not have the power to approve a program whereby outstanding Awards are surrendered in exchange for Awards with a lower exercise price, without first obtaining stockholder approval of such program other than changes to outstanding awards pursuant to Section IV.C.

IV. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

A. Shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock shall be available for issuance under the Plan and shall be drawn from either the Corporation’s authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock or from reacquired shares

2

of Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the Corporation on the open market. The number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance over the term of the Plan shall initially be fixed at 750,000 shares.

B. Should one or more outstanding options under this Plan expire or terminate for any reason prior to exercise in full, then the shares subject to the portion of each option not so exercised shall be available for issuance under the Plan. Unvested shares of Restricted Stock that revert to the Corporation shall also be available for reissuance under the Plan. In addition, should the exercise price of an outstanding option under the Plan be paid with shares of Common Stock that were not acquired from the Corporation, then the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by the gross number of shares for which the option is exercised, and not by the net number of shares of Common Stock actually issued to the holder of such option.

C. Should any change be made to the Common Stock issuable under the Plan by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt of consideration, then appropriate adjustments shall be made to (i) the maximum number and/or class of securities issuable under the Plan, (ii) the number and/or class of securities for which Awards are to be subsequently made to each newly-elected or continuing non-employee Board member under the Plan, and (iii) the number and/or class of securities and price per share in effect under each Award outstanding under the Plan. The adjustments to the outstanding Awards shall be made by the Board in a manner which shall preclude the enlargement or dilution of rights and benefits under such Awards and shall be final, binding and conclusive.

V. ELIGIBILITY

A. Eligible Directors. The individuals eligible to receive Awards pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall be limited to (i) those individuals who are first elected or appointed as non-employee Board members after the Effective Date, whether through appointment by the Board or election by the Corporation’s stockholders, and (ii) those individuals who are re-elected as non-employee Board members at one or more Annual Meetings held after the Effective Date whether or not such individual is serving as a non-employee director on the Effective Date. Each non-employee Board member eligible to participate in the Plan pursuant to the foregoing criteria is hereby designated an Eligible Director.

B. Limitation. Except for the grants to be made pursuant to this Plan, non-employee Board members shall not be eligible to receive any stock options, stock appreciation rights, direct stock issuances or other stock awards under this Plan or any other stock plan of the Corporation or any parent or subsidiary.

VI. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AUTOMATIC AWARDS

A. Award Amounts and Dates. Awards shall be granted in the amounts and on the dates specified below:

(1) Initial Awards. Each individual who first becomes an Eligible Director after the Effective Date, whether through election by the Corporation’s stockholders or appointment by the Board, shall automatically be granted, at the time of such initial election or appointment, a non-statutory option to purchase thirty thousand (30,000) shares of Common Stock. The terms and conditions of any such option shall be as set forth in Section VI.B.

(2) Annual Awards. On the date of each Annual Meeting during the term of this Plan, each Eligible Director who is re-elected to the Board at that Annual Meeting shall automatically be granted, on the date of such Annual Meeting (the “Award Annual Meeting”), an annual Award (an “Annual Award”) in the form described below, with a value equal to the Annual Award Value, as defined below. There shall be no limit on the number of Annual Awards any one Eligible Director may receive over his or her period of continued Board service during the term of this Plan. On or before the December 31st of the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year in which the Award Annual Meeting occurs, the Board shall determine the

3

portion of the Annual Award that shall be in the form of a stock option in the form described in Section VI.A(2)(i) below and/or the portion that shall be in the form of Restricted Stock described in Section VI.A(2)(ii) below. In the event that no such determination is made by such December 31st, the last determination made by the Board as to the applicable form or forms of Annual Award to be received, and respective portions thereof, shall continue with respect to the Annual Awards issuable at the Award Annual Meeting.

(i) If the Annual Award is in the form of a stock option, the Annual Award shall be a non-statutory option to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock (an “Annual Option Grant”) equal to the number of shares which will result in the Annual Option Grant having a value as determined under the generally accepted accounting principles employed by the Corporation for the purposes of preparing its financial statements equal to the Annual Award Value. The Annual Option Grant shall have the terms and conditions set forth in Section VI.B.

(ii) If the Annual Award is in the form of Restricted Stock, the Annual Award shall be a grant of a number of unvested shares of Common Stock with a Fair Market Value equal to the Annual Award Value with any fractional share being eliminated. The terms and conditions of an Annual Award in the form of restricted stock shall be as set forth in Section VI.C. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board shall have the authority to provide that an Award in the form of Restricted Stock shall instead be in the form of a commitment to issue shares of Common Stock on the dates the Restricted Stock would have vested and otherwise with substantially the same provisions as set forth in this Plan for Awards of Restricted Stock. (Such a commitment is commonly referred to as an award of “Restricted Stock Units.”) If the Board has determined that Awards of Restricted Stock Units shall be made in lieu of Awards of Restricted Stock, references in this Plan to Restricted Stock shall be deemed references to Restricted Stock Units.

(3) Interim Awards. In the case of an Eligible Director who is appointed to the Board on a date (the “Interim Appointment Date”) that is neither (x) the date of an Annual Meeting nor (y) a date that is more than eleven (11) months since the most recent Annual Meeting that preceded the Interim Appointment Date, such Eligible Director shall automatically be granted, at the time of such appointment, an Award (an “Interim Award”) in the form of a non-statutory option to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock (an “Interim Option Grant”) equal to the number of shares which will result in the Interim Option Grant having a value as determined under the generally accepted accounting principles employed by the Corporation for the purposes of preparing its financial statements equal to the Interim Award Value, as defined below. The Interim Option Grant shall have the terms and conditions set forth in Section VI.B

(4) Definitions. The following definitions shall apply for the purposes of this Section VI:

(i) For the purposes of this Section VI.A, “Annual Award Value” shall mean a dollar amount equal to the annual cash retainer for service as a Director in effect at the time of the Award Annual Meeting for the period from the Award Annual Meeting until the first Annual Meeting following the Award Annual Meeting.

(ii) “Interim Award Value” shall mean a dollar amount equal to the product of (i) the Annual Award Value the Eligible Director would have received had the Eligible Director been appointed to the Board at the time of the most recent Annual Meeting that preceded the Interim Appointment Date multiplied by (ii) a fraction the numerator of which is twelve (12) minus the lesser of (x) the number of whole months from the most recent Annual Meeting that preceded the Interim Appointment Date until the Interim Appointment Date with any fraction of a month being rounded up to the next whole month or (y) twelve (12) and the denominator of which is twelve (12).

B. Terms and Conditions of Options. Any options granted pursuant to Section VI.A(1), Section VI.A(2)(i) or Section VI.A(3) shall have the following terms and conditions:

(1) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to such option shall be equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the grant date.

4

(2) Payment. Upon the exercise of the option in whole or in part, the exercise price for the portion being exercised shall become immediately due and shall be payable in one of the alternative forms specified below, or in a combination of such alternative forms, to the extent permitted by law and permitted in the form of Stock Option Agreement issued in connection with the option:

(i) full payment in cash or check made payable to the Corporation’s order; or

(ii) full payment in shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date (as such term is defined below); or

(iii) full payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the non-employee Board member (x) shall provide irrevocable written instructions to a brokerage firm acceptable to the Corporation to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased shares and (y) shall concurrently provide written directives to the Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction; or

(iv) a “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to which the Corporation will reduce the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the option by the largest whole number of shares with a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price; provided, however, that the Corporation shall accept a cash payment from the Eligible Director to the extent of any remaining balance of the aggregate exercise price not satisfied by such holding back of whole shares; provided further, however, that shares of Common Stock will no longer be outstanding under the option and will not be exercisable thereafter to the extent that (x) shares are used to pay the exercise price pursuant to the “net exercise” of the option and (y) shares are directly or indirectly delivered to the Eligible Director as a result of such exercise of the option.

For purposes of this Section VI.B(2), the Exercise Date shall be the date on which written notice of the option exercise is delivered to the Corporation. Except to the extent the sale and remittance procedure specified above is utilized in connection with the exercise of the option, payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must accompany the exercise notice.

(3) Exercisability/Vesting. Each stock option granted pursuant to this Plan shall be exercisable only if the option becomes vested in accordance with the terms of this Plan. Once a portion of an option becomes vested, such portion shall remain exercisable until either such portion is exercised or the option is terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Plan. In no event, however, shall any additional option shares vest after the Optionee’s cessation of Board service. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, options granted pursuant to this Plan shall vest as follows:

(i) The initial automatic grant for thirty thousand (30,000) shares made to each Eligible Director shall vest in a series of four (4) successive equal installments as such individual continues in Board service through the date immediately preceding each of the first four (4) Annual Meetings following the grant date of that option.

(ii) Each Annual Option Grant and any Interim Option Grant made to an Eligible Director shall vest in thirty-six (36) successive equal monthly installments for each month the Optionee continues in Board service from the grant date of that option through the third (3rd) anniversary of the grant date of the option. Any Annual Option Grant vesting installment that is scheduled to occur on or about the date of an annual meeting that follows the date of grant shall instead vest on the date immediately prior to the date of such annual meeting, subject to continued Board service through such date.

(iii) Should the Optionee die or become Permanently Disabled while serving as a Board member, then any option grant issued under the Plan held by the Optionee at the time of his or her death or Permanent Disability may subsequently be exercised for any or all of the option shares in which the Optionee is vested at that time plus an additional number of option shares equal to the number of option shares (if any) in which the Optionee would have vested had he or she continued in Board service until the next Annual Meeting.

5

(4) Option Term. Each option grant under the Plan shall have a maximum term of seven (7) years measured from the automatic grant date.

(5) Effect of Termination of Board Service.

(i) Should the Optionee cease to serve as a Board member for any reason (other than death or Permanent Disability) while holding one or more option grants issued under the Plan, then such individual shall have a six (6)-month period following the date of such cessation of Board service in which to exercise each such option for any or all of the option shares in which the Optionee is vested at the time of his or her cessation of Board service. Each such option shall immediately terminate and cease to be outstanding, at the time of such cessation of Board service, with respect to any option shares in which the Optionee is not otherwise at that time vested.

(ii) Should the Optionee die on or before the date that is six (6) months after cessation of Board service, then any option grant issued under the Plan held by the Optionee at the time of death may subsequently be exercised, for any or all of the option shares in which the Optionee is vested at the time of his or her cessation of Board service (less any option shares subsequently purchased by the Optionee prior to death), by the personal representative of the Optionee’s estate or by the person or persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. The right to exercise each such option shall lapse upon the expiration of the twelve (12)-month period measured from the date of the Optionee’s death.

(iii) Should the Optionee become Permanently Disabled while serving as a Board member, then the Optionee shall have the right to exercise the option for any or all of the option shares in which the Optionee is vested at the time of his or her cessation of Board service at any time prior to the expiration of the twelve (12)-month period measured from the date of the Optionee’s Permanent Disability.

(iv) If the exercise of the Option following the termination of the Optionee’s service as a Board member (other than upon the Optionee’s death or Permanent Disability) would be prohibited at any time solely because the issuance of shares of Common Stock would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of a period of six (6)-months after the termination of the Optionee’s service as a Board member during which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such registration requirements, or (ii) the expiration of the maximum term of the Option. In addition, if the sale of the Common Stock received upon exercise of an Option following the termination of the Optionee’s Service as a Board member would violate the Company’s insider trading policy, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of a period equal to the applicable post-termination exercise period described in subsections (i)-(iii) above after the termination of the Optionee’s service as a Board member during which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of the Company’s insider trading policy; or (ii) the expiration of the maximum term of the Option.

(v) In no event shall any option grant under this Plan remain exercisable after the expiration date of the maximum seven (7) year option term. Upon the expiration of the applicable post-service exercise period under subparagraphs (i) through (iii) above or (if earlier) upon the expiration of the maximum seven (7)-year option term, the grant shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any option shares in which the Optionee was vested at the time of his or her cessation of Board service but for which such option was not otherwise exercised.

(6) Stockholder Rights. The holder of an option grant issued under the Plan shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any shares subject to such option until such individual shall have exercised the option and paid the exercise price for the purchased shares.

6

(7) Remaining Terms. The remaining terms and conditions of each option grant issued under the Plan shall be as set forth in a written stock option agreement (the “Stock Option Agreement”) in a form adopted from time to time by the Board; provided, however, that the terms of any Stock Option Agreement shall be consistent with the provisions of this Plan.

C. Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock. Any Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the provisions of Section VI.A(2)(ii) shall have the following terms and conditions:

(1) Payment. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the payment for the restricted shares shall be in the form of past services rendered to or future services to be rendered to the Corporation. In the event additional consideration is required to be paid in order that the restricted shares shall be deemed fully paid and nonassessable, the Board shall determine the amount and character of such additional consideration.

(2) Vesting. Each Annual Award granted to an Eligible Director in the form of Restricted Stock shall vest and the Corporation’s repurchase rights shall lapse in a series of three (3) successive equal annual installments as such individual continues in Board service from the grant date of that Annual Award through the dates immediately preceding each of the first three (3) Annual Meetings following the grant date.

Should the Eligible Director die or become Permanently Disabled while serving as a Board member, then any Restricted Stock issued under the Plan held by the Eligible Director at the time of his or her death or Permanent Disability shall be deemed vested for a number of shares equal to the number calculated in the preceding sentence as of the date of death or Permanent Disability plus an additional number of shares equal to the number of shares (if any) in which the Eligible Director would have vested had he or she continued in Board service until the next Annual Meeting.

(3) Effect of Termination of Board Service. Should an Eligible Director cease to serve as a Board member while holding unvested Restricted Stock, the unvested stock shall immediately be forfeited and revert back to the Corporation. No notice or other action shall be required of the Corporation to effectuate such reversion.

(4) Remaining Terms. The remaining terms and conditions of each grant of Restricted Stock under the Plan shall be as set forth in a written restricted stock agreement (the “Restricted Stock Agreement”) in a form adopted from time to time by the Board; provided, however, that the terms of any Restricted Stock Agreement shall be consistent with the provisions of this Plan.

VII. SPECIAL VESTING ACCELERATION EVENTS

A. In the event of any Corporate Transaction, the Board may provide that some or all of the outstanding stock options and some or all of the Corporation’s outstanding reacquisition rights shall be assumed by the successor corporation or its parent corporation. In the event of any Corporate Transaction, each outstanding stock option and each outstanding share of Restricted Stock shall become immediately vested, immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction unless (i) in the case of an option, such option is assumed by the successor corporation or its parent corporation or (ii) in the case of Restricted Stock, the Corporation’s reacquisition rights are assumed by the successor corporation or its parent corporation. In the event an option outstanding immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction is not assumed by the successor corporation or its parent corporation, the outstanding option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding immediately following the Corporate Transaction to the extent that such option is not exercised as of the effective date of the Corporate Transaction.

B. In connection with any Change in Control of the Corporation, each outstanding, unvested option granted under the Plan and each share of unvested Restricted Stock issued under the Plan shall automatically vest in full immediately prior to the specified effective date for the Change in Control.

7

VIII. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN AND AWARDS

The Board has complete and exclusive power and authority to amend or modify the Plan (or any component thereof) in any or all respects whatsoever; provided, however, that no such amendment or modification shall adversely affect rights and obligations with respect to Awards at the time outstanding under the Plan, unless the affected Eligible Directors consent to such amendment. In addition, the Board may not, without the approval of the Corporation’s stockholders, amend the Plan in such a manner that would violate applicable laws or the listing requirements applicable to the Corporation with respect to any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Corporation lists the Corporation’s securities.

The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. No Awards may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.

IX. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF PLAN

A. The Plan originally become effective on the Original Effective Date. This amended Plan document became effective on the Effective Date, subject to stockholder approval at the 2010 Annual Meeting of stockholders.

B. The Plan shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the day immediately prior to the date of the Annual Meeting of stockholders that occurs in 2015 or (ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the Plan shall have been issued or canceled pursuant to the exercise of Awards. If the date of termination is determined under clause (i) above, then all option grants and issuances of Restricted Stock outstanding on such date shall thereafter continue to have force and effect in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Stock Option Agreements and Restricted Stock Agreements.

X. USE OF PROCEEDS

Any cash proceeds received by the Corporation from the sale of shares pursuant to option grants or share issuances under the Plan shall be used for general corporate purposes.

XI. REGULATORY APPROVALS

A. The implementation of the Plan, the granting of any Awards and the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of an Award shall be subject to the Corporation’s compliance in all respects with the requirements of applicable law and the rules of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Corporation lists the Corporation’s securities.

B. No shares of Common Stock or other assets shall be issued or delivered under this Plan unless and until there shall have been compliance with all applicable requirements of Federal and state securities laws, including the filing and effectiveness of the Form S-8 registration statement for the shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan, and all applicable listing requirements of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted for trading.

XII. NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS

Neither the action of the Corporation in establishing the Plan nor any provision of the Plan shall be construed or interpreted so as to affect adversely or otherwise impair the right of the Corporation or the stockholders to remove any individual from the Board at any time in accordance with the provisions of applicable law.

8

XIII. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

A. Awards may not be assigned, encumbered or otherwise transferred by any holder of the Award except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in the associated Stock Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Agreement.

B. The provisions of the Plan shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Corporation and its successors or assigns, whether by Corporate Transaction or otherwise, and the Optionees, the legal representatives of their respective estates, their respective heirs or legatees and their permitted assignees.

C. The existence of outstanding Awards shall in no way affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
