STATEMENT
2005
ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
-------------------------------------
I-trax,
Inc., a Delaware corporation, is delivering these proxy materials in connection
with the solicitation of proxies by the board of directors of I-trax for its
2005 annual meeting of stockholders and any adjournments or postponements of the
meeting. The 2005 annual meeting will be held at 11:00 A.M.,
at our
principal executive offices in Chadds Ford - 4 Hillman Drive, Suite 130, Chadds
Ford, Pennsylvania 19317.
These
proxy materials were first mailed to stockholders on or about April 15,
2005.
Sending
a signed proxy will not affect a stockholder’s right to attend the annual
meeting and vote in person. Every stockholder has the power to revoke his or her
proxy at any time before it is voted. The proxy, before it is exercised at the
meeting, may be revoked by filing with I-trax’s Secretary a notice in writing
revoking it, by delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by
attending the meeting and voting in person.
Explanatory
Note About I-trax Common Stock
Effective
January 3, 2003, I-trax completed a 1-for-5 reverse stock split. The board of
directors and stockholders of I-trax authorized the reverse stock split in
connection with the then pending application to list I-trax common stock on the
American Stock Exchange. I-trax common stock began trading on the American Stock
Exchange on January 15, 2003 under the symbol “DMX.” The information presented
in this proxy statement about the number of outstanding shares of I-trax common
stock, historic information about the number of shares of common stock issued in
connection with completed transactions and related prices, and option and
warrant information has been adjusted to reflect the completed reverse stock
split.
Stockholders
Entitled to Vote
The
close of business on April 6, 2005 was the record date for stockholders entitled
to notice of and to vote at the 2005 annual meeting.
As
of the record date, there were 30,241,903 outstanding shares of I-trax common
stock and 1,058,283 outstanding shares of I-trax Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converts into 10
shares of I-trax common stock and the holders of shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock are entitled to vote them at the 2005 annual meeting on an “as
converted” basis. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote.
Quorum
Required
The
presence, in person or by proxy, of stockholders entitled to cast at least a
majority of the votes that all stockholders are entitled to cast on a particular
issue constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the 2005 annual
meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as present for the
purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.
Vote
Required
Election
of Directors
Directors
are elected by a plurality of the affirmative votes cast by those shares present
in person, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote at the 2005 annual
meeting. The six nominees for director receiving the highest number of
affirmative votes will be elected. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be
counted toward a nominee’s total. Stockholders may not cumulate votes in the
election of directors.
Approval
of Amendments to 2001 Equity Compensation Plan
Approval
of amendment to I-trax’s 2001 Equity Compensation Plan requires the affirmative
vote of a majority of those shares present in person, or represented by proxy,
and cast either affirmatively or negatively at the 2005 annual meeting.
Abstentions are not affirmative votes and, therefore, will have the same effect
as votes against the proposal. Broker non-votes will not be treated as entitled
to vote on the matter and thus will not affect the outcome of voting on the
proposal.
Proxies
A
form of proxy is enclosed. All properly executed proxies received by I-trax’s
board of directors, and not revoked, will be voted as indicated in accordance
with the instructions written on the proxies. In the absence of contrary
instructions, shares represented by returned proxies will be voted for the
election of the directors and to approve the amendments to the 2001 Equity
Compensation Plan as described in this proxy statement and, in the discretion of
the proxy holders, on any other matter properly brought before the
meeting.
Solicitation
of Proxies
I-trax
will bear all of the costs of soliciting proxies. I-trax will arrange with
brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to send proxies
and proxy materials to the beneficial owners of I-trax common stock and I-trax
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and will reimburse these persons or
institutions for expenses incurred in connection with this distribution.
Directors, officers or employees of I-trax, none of whom will receive additional
compensation, may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, facsimile, e-mail
or other means. In addition, I-trax has retained Georgeson Shareholder
Communications, Inc. for $6,500 and reasonable out of pocket expenses to solicit
proxies in connection with the 2005 annual meeting.
PROPOSAL
NO. 1 - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
I-trax’s
board of directors currently consists of seven directors. Six of I-trax’s
current directors, whose terms expire at the 2005 annual meeting, have been
nominated for reelection at the 2005 annual meeting. All elected directors will
serve until the 2006 annual meeting.
The
board’s nominees for election as directors are Haywood D. Cochrane, Jr.,
Philip D. Green, Gail F. Lieberman, Frank A. Martin, David Nash, M.D. and R.
Dixon Thayer, each of whom is currently serving on the board.
Michael
M.E. Johns will resign from the board effective April 29, 2005. The resignation
was prompted by Dr. Johns’s nomination to serve as a director of Johnson &
Johnson and the anticipated commitment and potential conflict that such
appointment would involve. Arthur (Abbie) N. Leibowitz, M.D. resigned from the
board effective December 8, 2004. The resignation was prompted by Dr.
Leibowitz’s determination that the business relationship between I-trax and
Health Advocate, Inc., of which Dr. Leibowitz is Executive Vice President and
Chief Medical Officer, could potentially result in a conflict of interest. Mr.
Bock was appointed as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of
I-trax
on August 1, 2004, at which time he also resigned from the board.
The
proxy holders intend to vote all proxies received by them in the accompanying
form for these nominees unless otherwise directed. In the event any nominee is
unable or declines to serve as a director at the time of the 2005 annual
meeting, the proxies will be voted for any nominee who may be designated by the
present board of directors to fill the vacancy, or, in the alternative, the
board may reduce the number of directors. As of the date of this proxy
statement, I-trax is not aware of any nominee who is unable or unwilling to
serve as a director.
The
following table lists the name and age, as of April 15, 2005, of each nominee to
the board of directors.

Board
of Directors Meetings
The
board of directors of I-trax held 7 meetings during 2004. Each director while
serving in 2004, other than Dr. Leibowitz and Mr. Thayer, attended more than 75%
of the meetings of the board and its committees of which he or she is a member.
Board
of Directors’ Committees
The
board of directors has a compensation committee and an audit committee.
Currently, the board does not have a nominating committee. All members of the
board, however, participate in the consideration of director nominees.
Compensation
Committee
The
compensation committee is primarily responsible for determining the compensation
payable to the officers and key employees of I-trax and recommending to the
board additions, deletions and alterations with respect to the various employee
benefit plans and other fringe benefits provided by I-trax. No member of the
committee, however, may participate in decisions pertaining to his or her
compensation or benefits in his or her capacity as a director of I-trax. The
committee also is primarily responsible for administering I-trax’s stock option
plans, recommending stock options to the board at large with regard to I-trax’s
key employees and non-employee directors and determining the terms and
conditions on which the options are granted.
Through
2004, the committee had two members. Messrs. Bock and Thayer were members on
January 1, 2004. In August 2004, Mr. Bock was appointed as Senior Vice President
and Chief Financial Officer of I-trax, at which time he resigned from the board
and the committee. Ms. Lieberman replaced Mr. Bock on the board and the
committee. Furthermore, on February 14, 2005, Mr. Thayer was appointment as
I-trax’s Chief Executive Officer, at which time he resigned from the committee.
Accordingly, as of February 14, 2004, the committee has consisted of one member,
Ms. Lieberman. The board expects to nominate an additional director to serve on
the committee at the board’s annual meeting following the 2005 annual meeting of
stockholders. The committee did not hold separate meetings in 2004. Members of
the committee participated in other board meetings concerning compensation
issues and had recommended a course of action with respect to compensation
matters to the board at those meetings. Ms. Lieberman is independent, as defined
in Section 121(A), as in effect on April 11, 2005, of the American Stock
Exchange, or AMEX, listing standards.
Audit
Committee
The
audit committee is primarily responsible for appointing and pre-approving the
services performed by I-trax’s independent auditors as well as reviewing and
evaluating I-trax’s accounting principles and reporting practices. The audit
committee is also responsible for monitoring I-trax’s system of internal
accounting controls and has the responsibility and authority described in its
charter, which was included as Exhibit
A
to I-trax’s proxy statement for its 2004 annual meeting filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on April 19, 2004.
Through
2004, the committee had two members. Messrs. Bock and Thayer were members on
January 1, 2004. In August 2004, Mr. Bock was appointed as Senior Vice President
and Chief Financial Officer of I-trax, at which time he resigned from the board
and the committee. Ms. Lieberman replaced Mr. Bock on the board and the
committee. Furthermore, on February 14, 2005, Mr. Thayer was appointment as
I-trax’s Chief Executive Officer, at which time he resigned from the committee.
Accordingly, as of February 14, 2004, the committee has consisted of one member,
Ms. Lieberman. On March 16, 2005, I-trax consulted with AMEX concerning the
effect of Mr. Thayer’s resignation from the audit committee. On March 18, 2005,
AMEX issued a letter notifying I-trax that it was not in compliance with AMEX
audit committee composition requirements as set forth in Section 121B(2) of the
AMEX Company Guide. AMEX allowed I-trax until June 16, 2005 to regain compliance
with the requirements.
The
board has determined that Ms. Lieberman meets the Securities and Exchange
Commission’s criteria of financial expert and is financially sophisticated for
the purposes of AMEX listing standards. Ms. Lieberman is also independent, as
defined in Section 121(A), as in effect on April 11, 2005, of AMEX listing
standards and Rule 10A-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, or the Exchange Act.
The
audit committee held five meetings in 2004.
Director
Nominations
Currently,
the board does not have a formal nominating committee and the full board
conducts functions of a nominating committee, which include identifying and
recommending nominees for election to the board. Prior to election,
director
nominations are recommended to the board or stockholder consideration by a
majority of the independent directors.
The board intends to establish a nominating committee at the board’s annual
meeting following the 2005 annual meeting of stockholders. The board considers
candidates for board membership suggested by its members and management. The
board has authority to retain a search firm to assist in the identification of
director candidates. In selecting nominees for director, the board considers a
number of factors, including but not limited to:
|
· |
whether
a candidate has business and industry experience that is relevant to
I-trax, including recent experience at the senior management level of a
company at least as large or larger than
I-trax; |
|
· |
the
candidate’s ability to work constructively with I-trax’s management and
other directors; |
|
· |
the
candidate’s ability to represent interests of the stockholders;
|
|
· |
the
candidate’s independence from management and freedom from potential
conflicts of interest with I-trax; |
|
· |
the
candidate’s reputation, integrity, judgment, skill, leadership ability,
interpersonal skills, honesty and moral
values; |
|
· |
the
candidate’s financial literacy; |
|
· |
the
candidate’s availability, including the number of other boards on which
the candidate serves, and his or her ability to dedicate sufficient time
and energy to his or her board duties; |
|
· |
legal
and regulatory concerns; and |
|
· |
whether
the candidate contributes to the range of talent, skills and expertise
appropriate for enhancing the board’s diversity, overall composition and
effectiveness. |
Members
of the board may also request additional information about and interview the
potential nominee.
The
board will also consider recommendations of nominees for director received from
stockholders at least 120 days prior to the anniversary date of I-trax’s annual
meeting of stockholders for the previous year. In evaluating nominations
received from stockholders, the board will apply the criteria and follow the
process described above. Stockholders wishing to recommend a nominee for
director should submit such nomination in writing, along with any other
supporting materials the stockholder deems appropriate, to I-trax’s
Secretary.
Compensation
of Directors
Effective
April 2004, independent directors receive cash payments of $3,000 per calendar
quarter and $1,000 for each in person meeting or $250 per hour of each telephone
meeting. Every two years, all non-employee directors receive options to acquire
20,000 shares of common stock in consideration for their service on the board.
In addition, every two years members of board committees receive options to
acquire 10,000 shares of common stock for each committee on which they serve.
Directors are reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with
attending board and committee meetings.
Stockholder
Access to Directors
Stockholders
who wish to communicate with directors should do so by writing to the Secretary,
I-trax,
Inc., 4 Hillman Drive, Suite 130, Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania 19317. Under that
process, the Secretary of I-trax reviews all such correspondence and regularly
forwards to the board a summary of all such correspondence and copies of all
correspondence that, in the opinion of the Secretary, deals with the functions
of the board or its committees or that he otherwise determines requires their
attention. Directors may at any time review a log of all correspondence received
by I-trax that is addressed to members of the board and request copies of any
such correspondence. Concerns relating to accounting, internal controls or
auditing matters will be brought to the attention of I-trax’s audit committee.
Director
Attendance at Annual Stockholders Meeting
I-trax
encourages all of its directors to attend I-trax’s annual meeting of
stockholders. All of the individuals then serving as directors, except Dr.
Leibowitz, attended I-trax’s 2004 annual meeting of stockholders either in
person or by conference call.
RECOMMENDATION
OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
THE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR”
EACH
OF THE NOMINEES LISTED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.
PROPOSAL
NO. 2 - APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO
THE
COMPANY’S 2001 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN
Description
of Amendments Subject to Stockholder Approval
I-trax
is asking stockholders to approve three amendments, or Amendments, to its 2001
Equity Compensation Plan, or the Plan. The Amendments were approved by the board
on August 16, 2004. These Amendments:
|
· |
increased
the number of shares available for grant under the Plan by 2,000,000
shares; |
|
· |
increase
the number of shares added to the Plan on each January 1 from 200,000
shares to 300,000 shares; and |
|
· |
increase
the number of options that may be granted to a single individual in a
single year to 400,000 shares. |
The
sections of the Plan affected by the Amendments are included in Appendix
A
to this proxy statement.
Description
of the 2001 Equity Compensation Plan
The
Plan provides a means whereby eligible individuals may be given an opportunity
to acquire shares of common stock and to benefit from increases in value of the
common stock. The Plan was originally adopted on March 20, 2001, amended on
April 10, 2001, and approved by the stockholders on May 21, 2001.
The
board believes that equity awards under the Plan plays an important role in
I-trax’s efforts to attract, employ and retain employees, directors and
consultants of outstanding ability and helps align management’s interests with
those of our stockholders.
The
principal terms and provisions of the Plan are summarized below. The summary,
however, is not intended to be a complete description of all the terms of the
Plan. I-trax will furnish a copy of the Plan to any stockholder upon written
request to the Secretary of I-trax at its executive offices in Chadds Ford,
Pennsylvania.
Structure.
Four separate types of equity compensation may be issued under the Plan. First,
stock options may be granted to eligible individuals under the Plan. Stock
options give optionees the right to purchase shares of common stock at an
exercise price determined at the time the option is granted. Second, a salary
investment option grant program may be implemented under the Plan. The salary
investment option grant program permits eligible employees to reduce their
salary voluntarily as described below. Third, direct issuances of stock may be
made to eligible persons under the Plan. Persons receiving direct issuances of
stock may purchase shares of common stock at a price less than, equal to or
greater than the fair market value of the common stock or may receive such
shares of common stock for past services rendered or as a bonus for the
performance of services. Direct issuances may be subject to certain
restrictions, including vesting periods and performance goals. In addition, if
specifically implemented, the Plan permits non-employee members of the board to
automatically receive options to purchase shares of common stock at periodic
intervals.
Administration.
The board’s compensation committee administers the Plan. Committee members serve
for such period of time as the board may determine. The Plan may also be
administered, with respect to optionees who are not executive officers subject
to the short-swing profit rules of the federal securities laws, by the board or
a secondary committee comprised of one or more members of the board. The
compensation committee (or board or secondary committee to the extent acting as
plan administrator) has full authority (subject to the express provisions of the
Plan) to determine the eligible individuals who are to receive awards under the
Plan, the number of shares to be covered by each granted option or other award,
the date or dates on which the option is to become exercisable or the award is
to vest, the maximum term for which the option or award is to remain
outstanding, whether the granted option will be an incentive stock option that
satisfies the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, or the
“Code,” or a non-statutory option not intended to meet such requirements and the
remaining provisions of the option grant or award.
Eligibility. Employees
(including officers), independent directors and consultants who render services
to I-trax or its subsidiary corporations (whether now existing or subsequently
established) are eligible to receive awards under the Plan. However, only
employees are eligible to receive incentive stock options.
As
of April 15, 2005, approximately 100 employees and other persons were
participating in the Plan.
Securities
Subject to the Plan.
Prior to approval of the Amendments by the board of directors in August 2004,
the Plan provided for the issuance of a maximum of 1,600,000 shares. The number
also increased automatically on the first day of each calendar year by an amount
equal to the lesser of: 3% of the shares of common stock then outstanding; and
200,000 shares.
Upon
approval of the Amendments by the board, the number of shares increased by
2,000,000 to 3,600,000 shares, and on January 1, 2005 the number of shares
increased by an additional 300,000 shares to 3,900,000 shares.
Accordingly,
upon approval of the Amendments by the stockholders, the number of shares of
common stock that may be issued under the Plan would increase to 3,900,000
shares.
Further,
if the Amendments are approved by the stockholders, the maximum that a single
individual could receive in a calendar year would increase to 400,000 shares
from 80,000 shares.
Should
an option or award under the Plan expire or terminate for any reason prior to
exercise in full or should restricted shares acquired upon exercise of an option
or award be repurchased by I-trax for any reason, the shares subject to the
termination or repurchase will be available for subsequent options or awards
under the Plan.
Option
Grants
Price
and Exercisability.
The option exercise price per share in the case of an incentive stock option may
not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the grant
date and, in the case of a non-statutory option, may be less than, equal to or
greater than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the grant date.
Options become exercisable at such time or times and during such period as the
committee or the board may determine and set forth in the instrument evidencing
the option grant.
The
exercise price may be paid in cash or in shares of common stock. Options may
also be exercised through a same-day sale program, pursuant to which a
designated brokerage firm is to effect the immediate sale of the shares
purchased under the option and pay over to I-trax, out of the sale proceeds on
the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the exercise price for the
purchased shares plus all applicable withholding taxes. The compensation
committee has the discretionary authority to cancel outstanding options and to
substitute options with an exercise price based on the fair market value of the
option shares on the regrant date.
No
optionee is to have any stockholder rights with respect to the option shares
until the optionee has exercised the option, paid the exercise price and become
a holder of record of the shares. An incentive stock option is not assignable or
transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and
during the optionee’s lifetime only the optionee may exercise the option. A
non-statutory stock option may be assigned in circumstances approved in advance
by the compensation committee.
Termination
of Service.
Any option held by the optionee at the time of cessation of service will not
remain exercisable beyond the designated post-service exercise period, which
generally is three months from termination date. Under no circumstances,
however, may any option be exercised after the specified expiration date of the
option term. Each such option will normally, during such limited period, be
exercisable only to the extent of the number of shares of common stock in which
the optionee is vested at the time of cessation of service. The compensation
committee has complete discretion to extend the period following the optionee’s
cessation of service during which his or her outstanding options may be
exercised and/or to accelerate the exercisability of such options in whole or in
part. Such discretion may be exercised at any time while the options remain
outstanding, whether before or after the optionee’s actual cessation of service.
The
compensation committee may grant options that are exercisable for unvested
shares. The shares of common stock acquired upon the exercise of such options
may be subject to repurchase by I-trax at the original exercise price paid per
share upon the optionee’s cessation of service prior to vesting in such shares.
The committee has complete discretion in establishing the vesting schedule to be
in effect for any unvested shares.
Incentive
Stock Options.
Incentive stock options may only be granted to individuals who are employees of
I-trax or its parent or subsidiary corporation. During any calendar year, the
aggregate fair market value (determined as of the grant date(s)) of the common
stock for which one or more options granted to any employee under the Plan (or
any other equity plan of I-trax or its parent or subsidiary corporations) may
for the first time become exercisable as incentive stock options under Section
422 of the Code may not exceed $100,000.
Salary
Investment Option Grant Program
The
compensation committee may permit certain employees to participate in the salary
investment option grant program for one or more calendar years. Each selected
individual who elects to participate in the salary investment option grant
program must, prior to the start of each calendar year of participation, file
with the compensation committee an irrevocable authorization directing I-trax to
reduce his or her base salary for that calendar year by an amount not less than
$5,000 nor more than $50,000. Each individual who makes this election will be
granted an option under the salary investment grant program on the first trading
day in January for the calendar year for which the salary reduction is to be in
effect.
The
exercise price per share will be 33-1/3% of the fair market value of the common
stock on the grant date. The
exercise price will become immediately due upon exercise of the option and will
be payable in one or more of the alternative forms authorized under the stock
option grant program. The
number of shares of common stock subject to the option is determined by dividing
(1) the dollar amount of the approved reduction in the optionee’s base salary
for the calendar year by (2) the product of the fair market value per share of
common stock on the option grant date and 66-2/3%. An option becomes exercisable
in a series of 12 successive equal monthly installments upon the optionee’s
completion of each calendar month of service in the calendar year for which the
salary reduction is in effect.
This
program is currently not in effect.
Stock
Issuance Program
Stock
may be sold at a price per share less than, equal to or greater than the fair
market value of the common stock on the date of issuance, payable in cash
payable to I-trax. Shares may also be issued as consideration for past services
or as a performance bonus.
The
issued shares may either be immediately vested upon issuance or subject to a
vesting schedule tied to the performance of service or the attainment of
performance goals. The compensation committee, however, has the discretionary
authority at any time to accelerate the vesting of any or all unvested shares
outstanding under the Plan.
General
Provisions
Acceleration
of Options.
The compensation committee (or board to the extent acting as plan administrator)
has full authority to determine which, if any, outstanding option or award under
the Plan will become fully exercisable upon a “Change in Control” (as defined
below). The board may also provide that such option or award is to be assumed by
the successor corporation (or parent) or to be replaced with a comparable option
or award to purchase shares of the capital stock of the successor corporation
(or parent).
A
“Change
in Control”
means a change in ownership or control of I-trax effected through any of the
following transactions:
(a) Any
“person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act)
(other than persons who are stockholders on the effective date of the Plan)
becomes a “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act),
directly or indirectly, of securities of I-trax representing more than 50% of
the voting power of the then outstanding securities of I-trax; provided that a
Change in Control will not be deemed to occur as a result of a change of
ownership resulting from the death of a stockholder and a Change in Control will
not be deemed to occur as a result of a transaction in which I-trax becomes a
subsidiary of another corporation and in which the stockholders of I-trax,
immediately prior to the transaction, beneficially owns, immediately after the
transaction, shares entitling such stockholders to more than 50% of all votes to
which all stockholders of the parent corporation would be entitled in the
election of directors (without consideration of the rights of any class of stock
to elect directors by a separate class vote); or
(b) The
stockholders of I-trax approve (or, if stockholder approval is not
required, the board approves) an agreement providing for (1) the merger or
consolidation of I-trax with another corporation where the stockholders of
I-trax, immediately prior to the merger or consolidation, will not beneficially
own, immediately after the merger or consolidation, shares entitling such
stockholders to more than 50% of all votes to which all stockholders of the
surviving corporation would be entitled in the election of directors (without
consideration of the rights of any class of stock to elect directors by a
separate class vote), (2) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of I-trax, or (3) a liquidation or dissolution of
I-trax.
Valuation.
For purposes of establishing the option price and for all other valuation
purposes under the Plan, the fair market value of a share of common stock, if
the common stock is publicly traded, is determined as follows: (x) if the
principal trading market for the common stock is the New York Stock Exchange,
the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq SmallCap
Market, the last reported sale price thereof on the relevant date or (if there
were no trades on that date) the latest preceding date upon which a sale was
reported; or (y) if the common stock is not principally traded on such exchange
or market, the highest “bid” price of common stock on the relevant date, as
reported by the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, the National Daily Quotation
Bureau, Inc. or as reported in a customary financial reporting service, as
applicable and as the compensation committee (or the board to the extent acting
as plan administrator) determines. If the common stock is not publicly traded
or, if publicly traded, the compensation committee (or the board to the extent
acting as plan administrator) determines that the number of shares of the common
stock traded on a given day, the last reported sale price thereof, or, if
applicable, the highest “bid” quotation as set forth above are not indicative of
the fair market value of the common stock, the fair market value per share shall
be as determined by the compensation committee (or the board to the extent
acting as plan administrator).
Changes
in Capitalization.
If any change is made to the common stock 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 I-trax’s
receipt of consideration, appropriate adjustments shall be made to: (1) the
maximum number and/or class of securities issuable under the Plan; (2) the
number and/or class of securities by which the share reserve is to increase each
calendar year pursuant to the automatic share increase provisions of the Plan;
(3) the number and/or class of securities for which any one person may be
granted options, separately exercisable stock appreciation rights and direct
stock issuances under the Plan per calendar year; (4) the number and/or class of
securities for which grants are subsequently to be made under the automatic
option grant program to new and continuing non-employee board members; and (5)
the number and/or class of securities and the exercise price per share in effect
under each outstanding option under the Plan.
Each
outstanding option or award that is assumed in connection with a Change in
Control will be appropriately adjusted to apply and pertain to the number and
class of securities that would otherwise have been issued, in consummation of
such Change in Control, to the optionee or participant had the option or award
been exercised immediately prior to the Change in Control. Appropriate
adjustments will also be made to the exercise price payable per share and to the
class and number of securities available for future issuance under the Plan on
both an aggregate and a per-participant basis.
Plan
Amendments and Termination.
The board may amend or modify the Plan in any and all respects whatsoever.
However, without the consent of the affected optionee or award holder, no such
amendment or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations
under then outstanding options or awards. The approval of I-trax’s stockholders
will be obtained to the extent required by applicable law. The board may, at any
time and for any reason, terminate the Plan. Any options or awards outstanding
at the time of such termination will remain in force in accordance with the
provisions of the instruments evidencing such grants.
Because
the Plan is discretionary, benefits to be received by individual optionees are
not determinable.
Federal
Income Tax Consequences of Options Granted Under the Plan
Options
granted under the Plan may be either incentive stock options that satisfy the
requirements of Section 422 of the Code or non-statutory options that are not
intended to meet such requirements. The Federal income tax treatment for the two
types of options differs, as follows:
Incentive
Stock Options.
The optionee recognizes no taxable income at the time of the option grant, and
no taxable income is generally recognized at the time the option is exercised.
However, the excess of the fair market value of the purchased shares on the
exercise date over the exercise price paid for the shares generally is
includable in alternative minimum taxable income. The optionee will recognize
taxable income in the year in which the purchased shares are sold or otherwise
made the subject of disposition as further described below.
For
Federal tax purposes, dispositions are divided into two categories: (A)
qualifying and (B) disqualifying. The optionee will make a qualifying
disposition of the purchased shares if the sale or other disposition of such
shares is made after the optionee has held the shares for more than two years
after the grant date of the option and more than one year after the exercise
date. If the optionee fails to satisfy either of these two holding periods prior
to the sale or other disposition of the purchased shares, then a disqualifying
disposition will result.
Upon
a qualifying disposition of the shares, the optionee will recognize long-term
capital gain in an amount equal to the excess of (A) the amount realized upon
the sale or other disposition of the purchased shares over (B) the exercise
price paid for such shares. In general, if there is a disqualifying disposition
of the shares, the excess of (1) the fair market value of those shares on the
date the option was exercised over (2) the exercise price paid for the shares
will be taxable as ordinary income. Any additional gain recognized upon the
disposition will be a capital gain. Under current law, no tax withholding
requirements apply to income recognized upon a disqualifying disposition, but
I-trax is required to report the amount of any ordinary income recognized by the
optionee to the Internal Revenue Service.
If
the optionee makes a disqualifying disposition of the purchased shares, then
I-trax will be entitled to an income tax deduction for the taxable year in which
such disposition occurs equal to the excess of (1) the fair market value of such
shares on the date the option was exercised over (2) the exercise price paid for
the shares. In no other instance will I-trax be allowed a deduction with respect
to the optionee’s disposition of the purchased shares.
Non-Statutory
Options.
An optionee recognizes no taxable income upon the grant of a non-statutory
option. The optionee will in general recognize ordinary income in the year in
which the option is exercised equal to the excess of the fair market value of
the purchased shares on the exercise date over the exercise price paid for the
shares, and the optionee will be required to satisfy the tax withholding
requirements applicable to such income.
Special
provisions of the Code apply to the acquisition of common stock under a
non-statutory option if the purchased shares are subject to repurchase by
I-trax. These special provisions may be summarized as follows:
(a)
If
the shares acquired upon exercise of the non-statutory option are subject to
repurchase by I-trax at the original exercise price in the event of the
optionee’s termination of service prior to vesting in such shares, the optionee
will not recognize any taxable income at the time of exercise but will have to
report as ordinary income, as and when I-trax’s repurchase right lapses, an
amount equal to the excess of (1) the fair market value of the shares on
the date such repurchase right lapses with respect to such shares over
(2) the exercise price paid for the shares and will be required to satisfy
the tax withholding requirements at that time.
(b)
The
optionee may, however, elect under Section 83(b) of the Code to include as
ordinary income in the year of exercise of the non-statutory option an amount
equal to the excess of (1) the fair market value of the purchased shares on
the exercise date (determined as if the shares were not subject to I-trax’s
repurchase right) over (2) the exercise price paid for such shares. If the
Section 83(b) election is made, the optionee will not recognize any
additional income as and when the repurchase right lapses but will be required
to satisfy the tax withholding requirements at the time of exercise.
I-trax
will be entitled to a business expense deduction equal to the amount of ordinary
income recognized by the optionee with respect to the exercised non-statutory
option. The deduction will in general be allowed for the taxable year of I-trax
in which such ordinary income is recognized by the optionee. I-trax anticipates
that the compensation deemed paid by I-trax upon the exercise of non-statutory
options with exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the option shares
on the grant date will remain deductible by I-trax and will not have to be taken
into account for purposes of the $1 million limitation per covered individual on
the deductibility of the compensation paid to certain executive officers of
I-trax.
Stock
Issuances. The
tax principles applicable to direct stock issuances under the Plan will be
substantially the same as those summarized above for the receipt of stock upon
the exercise of non-statutory option grants.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR”
THE APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENTS TO THE 2001 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN.
CODE
OF CONDUCT DISCLOSURE
I-trax
has a Code of Conduct that is applicable to all employees of I-trax, including
I-trax’s principal executive officer, the principal financial officer and the
principal accounting officer. The Code of Conduct is designed to deter
wrongdoing and promote ethical conduct, full and accurate reporting in I-trax’s

The
audit committee’s policy provides for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit
services performed by I-trax’s independent auditor. Under the policy, the audit
committee may pre-approve specific services, including fee levels, by the
independent auditor in designated categories of audit, audit-related, tax
services and all other services.
Representatives
of Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP are expected to be present at the 2005 annual
meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so,
and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.
Goldstein
Golub Kessler LLP has a continuing relationship with American Express Tax and
Business Services Inc. from which it leases auditing staff who are full time,
permanent employees of American Express Tax and Business Services and through
which its partners provide non-audit services. As a result of this arrangement,
Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP has no full time employees and therefore, none of
the audit services performed were provided by permanent full-time employees of
Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP. Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP manages and supervises
the audit and audit staff, and is exclusively responsible for the opinion
rendered in connection with its examination.

Represents
shares issuable upon exercise of options under our 2000 and 2001 Equity
Compensation Plans, and excludes
2,000,000 shares added to the 2001 Plan and approved by the board in
August 2004. The excluded shares are reflected in “Equity compensation
plans not approved by security holders.” The number of shares authorized
for issuance under the 2001 Plan increases automatically on the first day
of each year beginning with 2002 by 200,000 shares. Accordingly, as of
January 1, 2004, 1,600,000 shares were authorized for issuance under the
2001 Plan. One of the Amendments subject to stockholder approval as
described in this proxy statement increases the number of shares
automatically added to the 2001 Plan on the first day of each year from
200,000 to 300,000 shares. This change was effective as of January 1,
2005. Generally, options granted under the 2000 and 2001 Plans vest over a
period of three years with respect to grants made to employees and
consultants and over a period of two years with respect to options grated
to directors. Exercise prices are established with reference to our common
stock’s market price. |
(2) |
Includes
options to acquire an aggregate of 493,998 shares granted outside of our
2000 and 2001 Equity Compensation Plans and warrants to acquire an
additional 3,394,894 shares. The 2,000,000 shares added to the 2001 Plan
and approved by the board in August 2004 are also reflected. The added
shares are subject to stockholder approval as described in this proxy
statement. Options granted outside of our 2000 and 2001 Plans have terms
similar to options granted pursuant to such plans including, exercise
prices established with reference to our common stock’s market price,
vesting terms and exercise terms. Warrants are granted as necessary to
secure financings and have terms of five to ten years. All outstanding
options vested over three years. |
SECURITY
OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
AND
RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The
table below sets forth, as of April 4, 2005, the number of shares and
percentage of common stock beneficially owned by:
|
· |
our
Chief Executive Officer and four other most highly compensated executive
officers based on compensation earned during
2004; |
|
· |
all
directors and executive officers as a group;
and |
|
· |
each
person who is known by I-trax to beneficially own 5% or more of I-trax’s
outstanding common stock. |
Beneficial
ownership was determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act.
Under this rule, certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more
than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power
to dispose of the shares). In addition, a person is deemed to beneficially own
certain shares if the person has the right to acquire the shares, such as upon
exercise of options or warrants, within 60 days of April 4, 2005, the date
as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership
of any person, the amount of shares includes the amount of shares beneficially
owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of any acquisition rights.
As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in the
following table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual voting power at
any particular date.
To
I-trax’s knowledge, except as indicated in the footnotes to this table and under
applicable community property laws, the persons named in the table have sole
voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially
owned by them.

I-trax
Health Management Solutions, Inc., a predecessor of I-trax, entered into an
employment agreement with Mr. Martin on December 29, 2000. The agreement was for
an initial term of three years. The employment agreement extends automatically
for successive periods of one year, unless Mr. Martin elects not to renew the
agreement. Mr. Martin’s current base salary is $250,000.
Health
Management Solutions may terminate Mr. Martin’s employment with or without cause
at any time. In addition, Mr. Martin may terminate his employment upon 90 days’
notice or upon shorter notice for good reason. Good reason includes the failure
by Health Management Solutions to continue Mr. Martin in his executive position,
material diminution of Mr. Martin’s responsibilities, duties or authority,
assignment to Mr. Martin of duties inconsistent with his position or requiring
Mr. Martin to be permanently based anywhere other than within 25 miles of

In
the event the agreement is terminated without cause or for good reason, Health
Management Solutions will pay Mr. Martin severance equal to one year’s salary,
payable over one year. In addition, in the event the agreement is terminated
without cause or for good reason, Mr. Martin will remain subject to the

and vest immediately.
With
the exception of the circumstances described in the immediately preceding

for a period of one year following the expiration of the initial term or any
renewal term, even if the actual employment is terminated prior to such
expiration. Mr. Martin also agreed not to use or disclose any confidential
information of Health Management Solutions for at least five years after the
expiration of the original term or any renewal term, even if the actual
employment is terminated prior to such expiration.

authority, assignment to him of duties inconsistent with his position or
requiring him to be permanently based other than at his current location.
If
Mr. Thayer’s employment is terminated without cause or for good reason, I-trax
will pay Mr. Thayer severance equal to two year’s salary, payable over two
years, and bonuses accrued through the date of termination.
Mr.
Thayer has agreed not to compete against I-trax for a period of one year or
while receiving severance, whichever is longer, following the expiration of the
initial term or renewal term, even if the actual employment is terminated prior
to such expiration. Mr. Thayer also agreed not to use or disclose any
confidential information of I-trax for at least five years after the expiration
of the original term or additional term, even if the actual employment is
terminated prior to such expiration.

I-trax
may terminate each executive’s employment with or without cause at any time, and
each executive may terminate his employment upon 90 days’ notice or upon shorter
notice for good reason. Good reason includes the failure by I-trax to continue
the applicable executive in his executive position, material diminution of his
responsibilities, duties or authority, assignment to him of duties inconsistent
with his position or requiring him to be permanently based other than at each
executive’s current location.
If

I-trax will pay to the applicable executive severance equal to one year’s
salary, payable over one year.
Each

least five years after the expiration of the original term or additional term,
even if the actual employment is terminated prior to such expiration.

two years. Each agreement extends automatically for successive periods of one

Change
of Control Arrangements
The
compensation committee, as administrator of I-trax’s 2000 Equity Compensation
Plan and 2001 Equity Compensation Plan, can provide for accelerated vesting of
the shares of common stock subject to outstanding options in connection with
certain changes in the control of I-trax.
COMPLIANCE
WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT
I-trax’s
board members, executive officers and persons who hold more than 10% of I-trax’s
outstanding common stock are subject to the reporting requirements of Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act, which require them to file reports with
respect to their common stock ownership and their transactions in common stock.
Based upon the copies of Section 16(a) reports that I-trax received from such
persons for their 2004 fiscal year transactions in I-trax common stock and their
common stock holdings and the written representations received from one or more
of these persons that no annual Form 5 reports were required to be filed by them
for the 2004 fiscal year, I-trax believes that all reporting requirements under
Section 16(a) for such fiscal year were met in a timely manner by I-trax’s
executive officers, board members and greater than 10% stockholders, except Ms.
Lieberman’s Form 3 which was late.
CERTAIN
RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

On

Warrant Purchase Agreement with a group of investors led by Psilos Group
Partners, L.P., or collectively, the “Psilos Group,” pursuant to which the
Psilos Group agreed, among other things, to loan I-trax up to $1,000,000. The
Psilos Group included Nantucket Healthcare Ventures I, L.P., a venture fund
managed by Mr. Martin. As consideration, I-trax granted the Psilos Group
warrants to acquire 0.05264 shares of common stock at $.50 per share for each $1
of the face amount of the loan. The loan accrued interest at an annual rate of
8%. The Psilos Group funded $692,809 of the $1,000,000 and received warrants to
purchase 364,694 shares of common stock. Of such total amounts, Nantucket funded
$75,000 and received warrants to purchase 39,480 shares of common stock.
Effective as of January 4, 2002, all Psilos Group investors exercised their
warrants using a cashless exercise feature and received an aggregate of 340,316
shares of common stock. In June 2003, Nantucket assigned its $75,000 loan plus
accrued interest of $6,669 on such loan to a third party investor relations
consultant, which converted such sum into 46,668 shares of common stock at the
rate of $1.75 per share in a private placement I-trax completed in June 2003.
Nantucket converted the balance of accrued interest of $6,098 into 3,484 shares
of common stock in the same private placement.
In
March and April 2003, Mr. Martin loaned I-trax an aggregate of $200,000 to fund
I-trax’s working capital deficiency. These loans accrued interest at an annual
rate of 8%. Of this amount, I-trax repaid $20,000 in September 2003, $25,000 in
October 2003 and $10,000 in November 2003. I-trax repaid $145,000, the balance
of the loan, plus accrued interest of $6,346 on March 19, 2004,
contemporaneously with the closing of the CHD Meridian Healthcare merger. In
consideration for these advances and continued commitment to support I-trax, in
May 2003 Mr. Martin received warrants to acquire an aggregate of 300,000 shares
of common stock at $1.80 per share.
In
addition to the loan described above, at June 30, 2003, I-trax owed Mr. Martin
an aggregate of $369,741, which represented 2001 loans and accrued interest on
such loans. Mr. Martin converted this amount into 211,280 shares of common stock
at the rate of $1.75 per share in a private placement I-trax completed in June
2003.
In
February 2003, Gary Reiss, a former Executive Vice President, loaned I-trax an
aggregate of $50,000 to fund I-trax’s working capital deficiency. The loan
accrued interest at an annual rate of 8%. I-trax repaid the loan, plus accrued
interest of $2,878, on March 19, 2004, contemporaneously with the closing of the
CHD Meridian Healthcare merger. In consideration for these advances and
continued commitment to support I-trax, in May 2003 Mr. Reiss received warrants
to acquire an aggregate of 150,000 shares of common stock at $1.80 per share.
In
addition to the loan described above, at June 30, 2003, I-trax owed Mr. Reiss an
aggregate of $423,582, which represented 2001 loans and accrued interest on such
loans. Mr. Reiss converted this amount into 242,046 shares of common stock at
the rate of $1.75 per share in a private placement I-trax completed in June
2003.
A
relative of Mr. Reiss loaned I-trax $350,000 in September 2002. The loan accrued
interest at an annual rate of 8%. I-trax repaid $125,000 of the loan in October
2002, $140,000 in February 2003, and $85,000, the balance, on March 19, 2004,
contemporaneously with the closing of the CHD Meridian Healthcare merger. I-trax
paid accrued interest monthly.
Mr.
Martin and Yuri Rozenfeld, Vice President and Secretary, deferred salaries in
amounts of $16,044, and $9,750, respectively, from October 2002 through April
2003 at the request of I-trax to conserve cash. These officers converted the
accrued amounts, less withheld taxes, into 5,562 and 3,536 shares of common
stock, respectively, at the rate of $1.75 per share in a private placement
I-trax completed in June 2003.
Sean
Martin, the son of Mr. Martin, is an employee of I-trax. Mr. S. Martin received
cash compensation of $61,486 in 2003 and $79,330 in 2004.
The
Certificate of Incorporation of I-trax limits the liability of I-trax’s
directors for monetary damages arising from a breach of their fiduciary duty as
directors, except for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to I-trax or
its stockholders, for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, for any transaction from
which the director derived an improper personal benefit and as otherwise
required by Delaware General Corporation Law. This limitation of liability does
not limit equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.
I-trax’s
bylaws require I-trax to indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest
extent permitted by Delaware law, including in circumstances in which
indemnification is otherwise discretionary under Delaware law.
AUDIT
COMMITTEE REPORT
The
audit committee of the board of directors developed an updated charter for the
committee in 2003, which was approved by the full board. The complete text of
the charter is reproduced in Exhibit A to I-trax’s proxy statement for its
2004 annual meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April
19, 2004.
The
audit committee appoints the accounting firm to be retained to audit the
company’s financial statements and, once retained, consults with and reviews
recommendations made by the accounting firm with respect to financial
statements, financial records, and financial controls of the
company.
Accordingly,
the audit committee has (a) reviewed and discussed the audited financial
statements with management; (b) discussed with Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP, the
company’s independent auditors, the matters required to be discussed by
Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communications with Audit Committees);
(c) received the written disclosures and the letter from Goldstein Golub Kessler
LLP required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence
Discussions with Audit Committees); and (d) discussed with Goldstein Golub
Kessler LLP its independence from management and the company, including the
matters in the written disclosures required by the Independence Standards Board.
The audit committee also discussed with Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP the overall
scope and plans for its audit. The audit committee met with management and
Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP to discuss the results of the auditors’
examinations, their evaluations of the company’s internal controls, and the
overall quality of the company’s financial reporting.
In
reliance on the review and discussions referred to above, the audit committee
recommended to the board of directors that the audited financial statements be
included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 2004.
This
report of the audit committee does not constitute soliciting material and should
not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other I-trax filing
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except to the
extent that I-trax specifically incorporates this report by reference
therein.

EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN
I. PURPOSE
OF THE PLAN
This
Amended and Restated
2001 Equity Compensation Plan is intended to promote the interests of I-trax,
Inc., a Delaware corporation, by providing eligible persons with the opportunity

interest, in the Corporation as an incentive for them to remain in the service
of the Corporation.
Capitalized
terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the attached

V. STOCK
SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
A. The
stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of authorized but unissued or
reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the Corporation on the
open market. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock initially
reserved for issuance over the term of the Planthat
may be issued under the plan
shall not exceed Five
Million (5,000,000) shares.Three
Million Six Hundred Thousand (3,600,000) shares, plus the additional shares of
Common Stock described in Section V.B of Article 1.
B. The
number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall
automatically increase on the first trading day of January of each calendar year
during the term of the Plan, beginning with the 20022005
calendar year, by an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the total number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding on the last trading day in December of the
immediately preceding calendar year, but in no event shall such annual increase
exceed One
Million (1,000,000Three
Hundred Thousand (300,000)
shares.
C. No
one person participating in the Plan may receive options, separately exercisable
stock appreciation rights and direct stock issuances for more than Four Hundred
Thousand (400,000) shares of Common Stock in the aggregate per calendar year.
D. Shares
of Common Stock subject to outstanding options shall be available for subsequent
issuance under the Plan to the extent those options expire, terminate or are
cancelled for any reason prior to exercise in full. Unvested shares issued under
the Plan and subsequently repurchased by the Corporation, at the original
exercise or issue price paid per share, pursuant to the Corporation's repurchase
rights under the Plan shall be added back to the number of shares of Common
Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan and shall accordingly be available
for reissuance through one or more subsequent options or direct stock issuances
under the Plan. However, should the exercise price of an option under the Plan
be paid for with shares of Common Stock or should shares of Common Stock
otherwise issuable under the Plan be withheld by the Corporation in satisfaction
of the withholding taxes incurred in connection with the exercise of an option
or the vesting of a stock issuance under the Plan, 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 or which vest under the stock
issuance, and not by the net number of shares of Common Stock issued to the
holder of such option or stock issuance. Shares of Common Stock underlying one
or more stock appreciation rights exercised under the Plan shall not be
available for subsequent issuance.
E. If
any change is made to the Common Stock 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, 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 by which the share reserve is to increase
each calendar year pursuant to the automatic share increase provisions of the
Plan, (iii) the number and/or class of securities for which any one person may
be granted options, separately exercisable stock appreciation rights and direct
stock issuances under the Plan per calendar year, (iv) the number and/or class
of securities for which grants are subsequently to be made under the Automatic
Option Grant Program to new and continuing non-employee Board members, and (v)
the number and/or class of securities and the exercise price per share in effect
under each outstanding option under the Plan. Such adjustments to the
outstanding options are to be effected in a manner which shall preclude the
enlargement or dilution of rights and benefits under such options. The
adjustments determined by the Plan Administrator shall be final, binding and
conclusive.

under Section 162(m) of the Code and related Treasury regulations and

V. STOCK
SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
A. The
stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of authorized but unissued or
reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the Corporation on the
open market. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued
under the plan shall not exceed Three Million Six Hundred Thousand (3,600,000)
shares, plus the additional shares of Common Stock described in Section V.B of
Article 1.
B. The
number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall
automatically increase on the first trading day of January of each calendar year
during the term of the Plan, beginning with the 2005 calendar year, by an amount
equal to three percent (3%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding on the last trading day in December of the immediately preceding
calendar year, but in no event shall such annual increase exceed Three Hundred
Thousand (300,000) shares.
C. No
one person participating in the Plan may receive options, separately exercisable
stock appreciation rights and direct stock issuances for more than Four Hundred
Thousand (400,000) shares of Common Stock in the aggregate per calendar year.
D. Shares
of Common Stock subject to outstanding options shall be available for subsequent
issuance under the Plan to the extent those options expire, terminate or are
cancelled for any reason prior to exercise in full. Unvested shares issued under
the Plan and subsequently repurchased by the Corporation, at the original
exercise or issue price paid per share, pursuant to the Corporation's repurchase
rights under the Plan shall be added back to the number of shares of Common
Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan and shall accordingly be available
for reissuance through one or more subsequent options or direct stock issuances
under the Plan. However, should the exercise price of an option under the Plan
be paid for with shares of Common Stock or should shares of Common Stock
otherwise issuable under the Plan be withheld by the Corporation in satisfaction
of the withholding taxes incurred in connection with the exercise of an option
or the vesting of a stock issuance under the Plan, 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 or which vest under the stock
issuance, and not by the net number of shares of Common Stock issued to the
holder of such option or stock issuance. Shares of Common Stock underlying one
or more stock appreciation rights exercised under the Plan shall not be
available for subsequent issuance.
E. If
any change is made to the Common Stock 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, 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 by which the share reserve is to increase
each calendar year pursuant to the automatic share increase provisions of the
Plan, (iii) the number and/or class of securities for which any one person may
be granted options, separately exercisable stock appreciation rights and direct
stock issuances under the Plan per calendar year, (iv) the number and/or class
of securities for which grants are subsequently to be made under the Automatic
Option Grant Program to new and continuing non-employee Board members, and (v)
the number and/or class of securities and the exercise price per share in effect
under each outstanding option under the Plan. Such adjustments to the
outstanding options are to be effected in a manner which shall preclude the
enlargement or dilution of rights and benefits under such options. The
adjustments determined by the Plan Administrator shall be final, binding and
conclusive.
VI. LIMITATIONS
ON ISSUANCE OR TRANSFER OF SHARES.
A. No
Common Stock shall be issued or transferred in connection with any award
hereunder unless and until all legal requirements applicable to the issuance or
transfer of such Common Stock have been complied with to the satisfaction of the
Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall have the right to condition any
award made to any Optionee or Participant hereunder on such Optionee's or
Participant's undertaking in writing to comply with such restrictions on his or
her subsequent disposition of such shares of Common Stock as the Plan
Administrator shall deem necessary or advisable, and certificates representing
such shares may be legended to reflect any such restrictions. Certificates
representing shares of Common Stock issued or transferred under the Plan will be
subject to such stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as may be required
by applicable laws, regulations and interpretations, including any requirement
that a legend be placed thereon.
B. If
based upon the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, the Plan Administrator
determines that the exercise of any options would violate any applicable
provision of (a) state or federal securities law or (b) the listing requirements
of any securities exchange registered under the 1934 Act on which are listed any
of the Corporation's equity securities, then the Plan Administrator may postpone
any such exercise; provided, however, that the Corporation shall use its best
efforts to cause such exercise to comply with all such provisions at the
earliest practicable date.
C. With
respect to Section 16 Insiders and Covered Employees of the Corporation,
transactions under the Plan are intended to comply with all applicable
conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors under the 1934 Act. To the extent any
provision of the Plan or action by the Board or the Plan Administrator fails to
so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and
deemed advisable by the Board and the Plan Administrator.
D. If
so requested by the Corporation or any representative of the underwriters (the
"Managing Underwriter") in connection with any registration of the offering of
any securities of the Corporation under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), an Optionee or Participant (including any successor or
assigns) shall not sell or otherwise transfer any shares or other securities of
the Corporation during the 180-day period following the effective date of a
registration statement of the Corporation filed under the Securities Act (or
such other period as may be requested in writing by the Managing Underwriter and
agreed to in writing by the Corporation) (the "Market Standoff Period"). Such
restriction shall apply to any registration statement of the Corporation to
become effective under the Securities Act that includes securities to be sold on
behalf of the Corporation to the public in an underwritten public offering under
the Securities Act. The Corporation may impose stop-transfer instructions with
respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of
such Market Standoff Period.
ARTICLE
TWO
DISCRETIONARY
OPTION GRANT PROGRAM
I. OPTION
TERMS
Each
option shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form approved by the
Plan Administrator; provided,
however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.
Each document evidencing an Incentive Option shall, in addition, be subject to
the provisions of the Plan applicable to such options.
A. Exercise
Price.
The
exercise price per share shall be fixed by the Plan Administrator at the time of
the option grant and may be less than, equal to or greater than the Fair Market
Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date.
The
exercise price shall become immediately due upon exercise of the option and
shall, subject to the provisions of Section II of Article Six and the
documents evidencing the option, be payable in one or more of the following
forms:
1. in
cash or check made payable to the Corporation;
2. shares
of Common Stock held for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the
Corporation's earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair
Market Value on the Exercise Date, or
3. to
the extent the option is exercised for vested shares, through a special sale and
remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee shall concurrently provide
irrevocable instructions to (a) a Corporation-designated brokerage firm 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 plus all
applicable Federal, state and local income and employment taxes required to be
withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (b) the
Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to
such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale.
Except
to the extent the sale and remittance procedure described in item 3, above, is
utilized, payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on
the Exercise Date.
B. Exercise
and Term of Options.
Each option shall be exercisable at such time or times, during such period and
for such number of shares as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and
set forth in the documents evidencing the option. However, no option shall have
a term in excess of ten (10) years measured from the option grant
date.
C. Loans
and Guarantees.
The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion,
1. allow
an Optionee in the Discretionary Option Grant Program to defer (at no less than
reasonable commercial rates) payment to the Corporation of all or any portion of
(a) the exercise price of an option, or (b) any taxes associated with a benefit
hereunder which is not a cash benefit at the time such benefit is so taxable, or
2. cause
the Corporation to guarantee a loan from a third party to the Optionee in the
Discretionary Option Grant Program, in an amount equal to all or any portion of
such exercise price or any related taxes.
Any
such payment deferral or guarantee by the Corporation pursuant to this Section
I.C. shall be, on a secured or unsecured basis, for such periods, at commercial
interest rates, and on such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator
may determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Optionee shall not be entitled
to defer the payment of such exercise price or any related taxes unless the
Optionee (a) enters into a binding obligation to pay the portion of the exercise
price or any related taxes which are deferred and (b) pays upon exercise of an
option a minimum amount, with respect to all shares of Common Stock to be then
issued, equal to the amount determined by the Plan Administrator to be capital
within the meaning of Section 154 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. If
the Plan Administrator has permitted a payment deferral or caused the
Corporation to guarantee a loan pursuant to this Section I.C., then the Plan
Administrator may, in its discretion, require the immediate payment of such
deferred amount or the immediate release of such guarantee in the event the
Optionee sells or otherwise transfers the Optionee's shares of Common Stock
purchased pursuant to such deferral or guarantee.
D. Cessation
of Service.
The
following provisions shall govern the exercise of any options outstanding at the
time of the Optionee's cessation of Service or death:
1. Any
option outstanding at the time of the Optionee's cessation of Service for any
reason shall remain exercisable for such period of time thereafter as shall be
determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the documents evidencing
the option, but no such option shall be exercisable after the expiration of the
option term.
2. Any
option exercisable in whole or in part by the Optionee at the time of death may
be subsequently exercised by his or her Beneficiary.
3. During
the applicable post-Service exercise period, the option may not be exercised in
the aggregate for more than the number of vested shares for which the option is
exercisable on the date of the Optionee's cessation of Service. Upon the
expiration of the applicable exercise period or (if earlier) upon the expiration
of the option term, the option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for
any vested shares for which the option has not been exercised. However, the
option shall, immediately upon the Optionee's cessation of Service, terminate
and cease to be outstanding to the extent the option is not otherwise at that
time exercisable for vested shares.
4. Should
the Optionee's Service be terminated for Misconduct or should the Optionee
engage in Misconduct while his or her options are outstanding, then all such
options shall terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding.
The
Plan Administrator shall have complete discretion, exercisable either at the
time an option is granted or at any time while the option remains
outstanding:
1. to
extend the period of time for which the option is to remain exercisable
following the Optionee's cessation of Service to such period of time as the Plan
Administrator shall deem appropriate, but in no event beyond the expiration of
the option term, and/or
2. to
permit the option to be exercised, during the applicable post-Service exercise
period, for one or more additional installments in which the Optionee would have
vested had the Optionee continued in Service.
E. Stockholder
Rights.
The holder of an option shall have no stockholder rights with respect to the
shares subject to the option until such person shall have exercised the option,
paid the exercise price and become a holder of record of the purchased shares.
F. Repurchase
Rights.
The Plan Administrator shall have the discretion to grant options which are
exercisable for unvested shares of Common Stock. Should the Optionee cease
Service while holding such unvested shares, the Corporation shall have the right
to repurchase, at the exercise price paid per share, any or all of those
unvested shares. The terms upon which such repurchase right shall be exercisable
(including the period and procedure for exercise and the appropriate vesting
schedule for the purchased shares) shall be established by the Plan
Administrator and set forth in the document evidencing such repurchase right.
G. Limited
Transferability of Options.
During the lifetime of the Optionee, Incentive Options shall be exercisable only
by the Optionee and shall not be assignable or transferable other than by will
or by the laws of inheritance following the Optionee's death. Non-Statutory
Options shall be subject to the same restrictions, except that a Non-Statutory
Option may, to the extent permitted by the Plan Administrator, be assigned in
whole or in part without consideration during the Optionee's lifetime to one or
more members of the Optionee's immediate family, or to others, including but not
limited to, a trust in which Optionee and/or one or more such family members
hold more than fifty percent (50%) of the beneficial interest, an entity in
which more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting interests are owned by one or
more such family members, or an entity, acceptable to the Plan Administrator,
with which the Optionee has a business relationship. Non-Statutory Options may
also be transferred, to the extent permitted by the Plan Administrator, pursuant
to a domestic relations order (as defined under section 414(p) of the Code).
Each such transfer must also be consistent with applicable securities laws. The
terms applicable to the assigned portion shall be the same as those in effect
for the option immediately prior to such assignment which shall be set forth in
such documents issued to the assignee as the Plan Administrator may deem
appropriate and each assignee shall agree to be legally bound by such terms.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Optionee may also designate one or more persons as the
Beneficiary or Beneficiaries of his or her outstanding options, and those
options shall, in accordance with such designation, automatically be transferred
to such Beneficiary or Beneficiaries upon the Optionee's death while holding
those options and upon furnishing proof satisfactory to the Corporation of the
Beneficiary's or Beneficiaries' right to receive the options. Such Beneficiary
or Beneficiaries shall take the transferred options subject to all the terms and
conditions of the applicable agreement evidencing each such transferred option,
including (without limitation) the limited time period during which the option
may be exercised following the Optionee's death.
II. INCENTIVE
OPTIONS
The
terms specified below shall be applicable to all Incentive Options. Except as
modified by the provisions of this Section II, all the provisions of Articles
One and Two shall be applicable to Incentive Options. Options which are
specifically designated as Non-Statutory Options when issued under the Plan
shall not
be subject to the terms of this Section II.
A. Eligibility.
Incentive Options may only be granted to Employees.
B. Exercise
Price.
The exercise price per share shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%)
of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date.
C. Dollar
Limitation.
The aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock (determined as of
the respective date or dates of grant) for which one or more options granted to
any Employee under the Plan (or any other option plan of the Corporation or any
Parent or Subsidiary) may for the first time become exercisable as Incentive
Options during any one calendar year shall not exceed the sum of One Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($100,000). To the extent the Employee holds two (2) or more
such options which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar
year, the foregoing limitation on the exercisability of such options as
Incentive Options shall be applied on the basis of the order in which such
options are granted.
D. 10%
Stockholder.
If any Employee to whom an Incentive Option is granted is a 10% Stockholder,
then the exercise price per share shall not be less than one hundred ten percent
(110%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant
date, and the option term shall not exceed five (5) years measured from the
option grant date.
III. CONSEQUENCES
OF A CHANGE IN CONTROL
A. Upon
a Change in Control the Plan Administrator, subject to Section III.B., below,
shall have the full discretion to do any or all of the following with respect to
the outstanding options granted under the Discretionary Option Grant
Program:
1. to
provide that the outstanding options shall accelerate and become fully
exercisable, whether or not those options are assumed or otherwise continued in
full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control. Any such
option shall accordingly become exercisable, immediately prior to the effective
date of such Change in Control, for all of the shares of Common Stock at the
time subject to that option and may be exercised for any or all of those shares
as fully-vested shares of Common Stock;
2. to
provide that one or more of the Corporation's repurchase rights provided in
accordance with Section I.F., above, shall not be assignable in connection with
such Change in Control and shall terminate upon the consummation of such Change
in Control, except to the extent: (i) those repurchase rights are assigned to
the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are otherwise continued in full
force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control or (ii) such
accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed by the Plan
Administrator at the time the repurchase right is issued;
3. where
the Corporation is not the surviving corporation (or survives only as a
subsidiary of another corporation) to provide that all outstanding options that
are not exercised shall be assumed by, or replaced with comparable options
granted by, the surviving corporation;
4. subject
to Section III.B. below, to require that Optionees surrender their outstanding
options in exchange for a payment by the Corporation, in cash or Common Stock as
determined by the Plan Administrator, in an amount equal to the amount by which
the then Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject to the
Optionee's unexercised options exceeds the exercise price of the options;
5. after
giving Optionees an opportunity to exercise their outstanding options, to
terminate any or all unexercised options at such time as the Plan Administrator
deems appropriate. Such surrender or termination shall take place as of the date
specified by the Plan Administrator; or
6. to
take any other action that the Plan Administrator shall determine to
pursue.
B. Notwithstanding
anything in the Plan to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control, the
Plan Administrator shall not have the right to take any actions described in the
Plan that would make the Change in Control ineligible for pooling of interest
accounting treatment or that would make the Change in Control ineligible for
desired tax treatment if, in the absence of such right, the Change in Control
would qualify for such treatment and the Corporation intends to use such
treatment with respect to the Change in Control.
C. Each
option which is assumed in connection with a Change in Control shall be
appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change in Control, to apply to
the number and class of securities which would have been issuable to the
Optionee in consummation of such Change in Control had the option been exercised
immediately prior to such Change in Control. Appropriate adjustments to reflect
such Change in Control shall also be made to (i) the exercise price payable per
share under each outstanding option, provided
the aggregate exercise price payable for such securities shall remain the same,
(ii) the maximum number and/or class of securities available for issuance over
the remaining term of the Plan and (iii) the maximum number and/or class of
securities for which any one person may be granted options, separately
exercisable stock appreciation rights and direct stock issuances under the Plan
per calendar year. To the extent the actual holders of the Corporation's
outstanding Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in
consummation of the Change in Control, the successor corporation may, in
connection with the assumption of the outstanding options, substitute one or
more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the
cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such Change in Control.
D. The
Plan Administrator may at any time provide that one or more options will
automatically accelerate upon an Involuntary Termination of the Optionee's
Service within a designated period (not to exceed eighteen (18) months)
following the effective date of any Change in Control in which those options do
not otherwise accelerate. Any options so accelerated shall remain exercisable
for fully-vested shares until the earlier
of (i) the expiration of the option term or (ii) the expiration of the one (1)
year period measured from the effective date of the Involuntary Termination. In
addition, the Plan Administrator may at any time provide that one or more of the
Corporation's repurchase rights shall immediately terminate upon such
Involuntary Termination.
E. The
portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in connection with a Change in
Control shall remain exercisable as an Incentive Option only to the extent the
applicable One Hundred Thousand Dollar ($100,000) limitation is not exceeded. To
the extent such dollar limitation is exceeded, the accelerated portion of such
option shall be exercisable as a Non-Statutory Option under the Federal tax
laws.
IV. STOCK
APPRECIATION RIGHTS
The
Plan Administrator may, subject to such conditions as it may determine, grant to
selected Optionees stock appreciation rights which will allow the holders of
those rights to elect between the exercise of the underlying option for shares
of Common Stock and the surrender of that option in exchange for a distribution
from the Corporation in an amount equal to the excess of (a) the Option
Surrender Value of the number of shares for which the option is surrendered over
(b) the aggregate exercise price payable for such shares. The distribution
may be made in shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the option
surrender date, in cash, or partly in shares and partly in cash, as the Plan
Administrator shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate.
V. SUBSTITUTED
OPTIONS
If
the Plan Administrator cancels, with the consent of an Optionee, any option
granted under the Plan, and a new option is substituted therefor, then the Plan
Administrator may, in its discretion, provide that the grant date of the
canceled option shall be the date used to determine the earliest date or dates
for exercising or disposing of the new substituted option under Section I.B.,
above, so that the Optionee may exercise or dispose of the substituted option at
the same time as if the Optionee had held the substituted option since the grant
date of the canceled option; provided, however, that no Optionee who for
purposes of Section 16 of the 1934 Act is treated as an officer, director or 10%
Stockholder of the Corporation may dispose of a substituted exchange option
within less than six months after the grant date (calculated without reference
to this Section V).

SALARY
INVESTMENT OPTION GRANT PROGRAM
I. OPTION
GRANTS
The
Primary Committee may implement the Salary Investment Option Grant Program for
one or more calendar years beginning after the Plan Effective Date and select
the Section 16 Insiders and Covered Employees and other highly compensated
Employees who shall be eligible to participate in the Salary Investment Option
Grant Program for each such calendar year. Each selected individual who elects
to participate in the Salary Investment Option Grant Program must, prior to the
start of each calendar year of participation, file with the Plan Administrator
(or its designate) an irrevocable authorization directing the Corporation to
reduce his or her base salary for that calendar year by an amount not less than
Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) (or such lesser amount as the Plan Administrator
may determine) nor more than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (or such lesser
amount as the Plan Administrator may determine). Each individual who files such
a timely election shall be granted an option under the Salary Investment Grant
Program on the first trading day in January for the calendar year for which the
salary reduction is to be in effect.
II. OPTION
TERMS
Each
option shall be a Non-Statutory Option evidenced by one or more documents in the
form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided,
however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.
A. Exercise
Price.
1. The
exercise price per share shall be thirty-three and one-third percent (33-1/3%)
of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date.
2. The
exercise price shall become immediately due upon exercise of the option and
shall be payable in one or more of the alternative forms authorized under the
Discretionary Option Grant Program. Except to the extent the sale and remittance
procedure specified thereunder is utilized, payment of the exercise price for
the purchased shares must be made on the Exercise Date.
B. Number
of Option Shares.
The number of shares of Common Stock subject to the option shall be determined
pursuant to the following formula (rounded down to the nearest whole number):
X
= A ÷ (B x 66-2/3%), where
X
is the number of option shares,
A
is the dollar amount of the approved reduction in the Optionee's base salary for
the calendar year, and
B
is the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date.
C. Exercise
and Term of Options.
The option shall become exercisable in a series of twelve (12) successive equal
monthly installments upon the Optionee's completion of each calendar month of
Service in the calendar year for which the salary reduction is in effect. Each
option shall have a maximum term of ten (10) years measured from the option
grant date.
D. Cessation
of Service.
Each option outstanding at the time of the Optionee's cessation of Service shall
remain exercisable, for any or all of the shares for which the option is
exercisable at the time of such cessation of Service, until the earlier
of (i) the expiration of the option term or (ii) the expiration of the three
(3)-year period following the Optionee's cessation of Service. To the extent the
option is held by the Optionee at the time of his or her death, the option may
be exercised by his or her Beneficiary. However, the option shall, immediately
upon the Optionee's cessation of Service, terminate and cease to remain
outstanding with respect to any and all shares of Common Stock for which the
option is not otherwise at that time exercisable.
III. CHANGE
IN CONTROL
A. In
the event of any Change in Control while an Optionee remains in Service holding
an outstanding option granted under the Salary Investment Option Grant Program,
the Plan Administrator shall have the full discretion to do any or all of the
following:
1. to
provide that each such outstanding option shall, immediately prior to the
effective date of the Change in Control, accelerate and become fully exercisable
with respect to the total number of shares of Common Stock at the time subject
to such option and may be exercised for any or all of those shares as
fully-vested shares of Common Stock;
2. to
provide that one or more of the Corporation's repurchase rights provided in
accordance with Section I.F., above, shall not be assignable in connection with
such Change in Control and shall terminate upon the consummation of such Change
in Control, except to the extent: (i) those repurchase rights are assigned to
the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are otherwise continued in full
force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control or (ii) such
accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed by the Plan
Administrator at the time the repurchase right is issued;
3. where
the Corporation is not the surviving corporation (or survives only as a
subsidiary of another corporation) to provide that all outstanding options that
are not exercised shall be assumed by, or replaced with comparable options
granted by, the surviving corporation;
4. subject
to Section III.B. of Article Two, above, to require that Optionees surrender
their outstanding options in exchange for a payment by the Corporation, in cash
or Common Stock as determined by the Plan Administrator, in an amount equal to
the amount by which the then Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock
subject to the Optionee's unexercised options exceeds the exercise price of the
options;
5. after
giving Optionees an opportunity to exercise their outstanding options, to
terminate any or all unexercised options at such time as the Plan Administrator
deems appropriate. Such surrender or termination shall take place as of the date
specified by the Plan Administrator; or
6. to
take any other action that the Plan Administrator shall determine to
pursue.
B. Each
option accelerated in connection with a Change in Control shall terminate upon
the Change in Control, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation
(or parent thereof) or otherwise continued in full force and effect pursuant to
the terms of the Change in Control.
C. Each
option described in Section III.A., above, which is assumed in connection with a
Change in Control shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to the number and
class of securities which would have been issuable to the Optionee in
consummation of such Change in Control had the option been exercised immediately
prior to such Change in Control. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to
the exercise price payable per share under each outstanding option, provided
the aggregate exercise price payable for such securities shall remain the same.
To the extent the actual holders of the Corporation's outstanding Common Stock
receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change
in Control, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption of
the outstanding options, substitute one or more shares of its own common stock
with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of
Common Stock in such Change in Control.
IV. REMAINING
TERMS
The
remaining terms of each option granted under the Salary Investment Option Grant
Program shall be the same as the terms in effect for options granted under the
Discretionary Option Grant Program.

STOCK
ISSUANCE PROGRAM
I. STOCK
ISSUANCE TERMS
Shares
of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock Issuance Program through direct
and immediate issuances without any intervening options. Shares of Common Stock
may also be issued under the Stock Issuance Program pursuant to share right
awards which entitle the recipients to receive those shares upon the attainment
of designated performance goals or Service requirements. Each such award shall
be evidenced by one or more documents which comply with the terms specified
below.
A. Purchase
Price.
1. The
purchase price per share of Common Stock subject to direct issuance shall be
fixed by the Plan Administrator and may be less than, equal to or greater than
the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the issue date.
2. Subject
to the provisions of Section II of Article Six, shares of Common Stock may be
issued under the Stock Issuance Program for any of the following items of
consideration which the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate in each
individual instance:
(i) cash
or check made payable to the Corporation, or
(ii) past
services rendered to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).
B. Vesting/Issuance
Provisions.
1. The
Plan Administrator may issue shares of Common Stock which are fully and
immediately vested upon issuance or which are to vest in one or more
installments over the Participant's period of Service or upon attainment of
specified performance objectives. Alternatively, the Plan Administrator may
issue share right awards which shall entitle the recipient to receive a
specified number of vested shares of Common Stock upon the attainment of one or
more performance goals or Service requirements established by the Plan
Administrator.
2. Any
new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including money
paid other than as a regular cash dividend) which the Participant may have the
right to receive with respect to his or her unvested shares of Common Stock by
reason of any stock dividend, stock split, 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 shall be
issued subject to (i) the same vesting requirements applicable to the
Participant's unvested shares of Common Stock and (ii) such escrow
arrangements as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate.
3. The
Participant shall have full stockholder rights with respect to the issued shares
of Common Stock, whether or not the Participant's interest in those shares is
vested. Accordingly, the Participant shall have the right to vote such shares
and to receive any regular cash dividends paid on such shares.
4. Should
the Participant cease to remain in Service while holding one or more unvested
shares of Common Stock, or should the performance objectives not be attained
with respect to one or more such unvested shares of Common Stock, then those
shares shall be immediately surrendered to the Corporation for cancellation, and
the Participant shall have no further stockholder rights with respect to those
shares. To the extent the surrendered shares were previously issued to the
Participant for consideration paid in cash or cash equivalent (including the
Participant's purchase-money indebtedness), the Corporation shall repay to the
Participant the cash consideration paid for the surrendered shares and shall
cancel the unpaid principal balance of any outstanding purchase-money note of
the Participant attributable to the surrendered shares.
5. The
Plan Administrator may waive the surrender and cancellation of one or more
unvested shares of Common Stock (or other assets attributable thereto) which
would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the Participant's Service or the
non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to those shares. Such
waiver shall result in the immediate vesting of the Participant's interest in
the shares of Common Stock as to which the waiver applies. Such waiver may be
effected at any time, whether before or after the Participant's cessation of
Service or the attainment or non-attainment of the applicable performance
objectives.
6. Outstanding
share right awards shall automatically terminate, and no shares of Common Stock
shall actually be issued in satisfaction of those awards, if the performance
goals or Service requirements established for such awards are not attained. The
Plan Administrator, however, shall have the authority to issue shares of Common
Stock in satisfaction of one or more outstanding share right awards as to which
the designated performance goals or Service requirements are not
attained.
II. CHANGE
IN CONTROL
A. In
the event of any Change in Control, the Plan Administrator shall have the full
discretion to do any or all of the following with respect to the Corporation's
outstanding repurchase rights applicable to shares of Common Stock issued under
the Stock Issuance Program:
1. to
provide that all such outstanding repurchase rights shall terminate and all the
shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights shall immediately vest
in full except to the extent that such accelerated vesting is precluded by other
limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator at the time the repurchase right
is issued;
2. to
assign the repurchase rights to the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or
otherwise to continue such rights in full force and effect pursuant to the terms
of the Change in Control; or
3. to
take any other action that the Plan Administrator shall determine to
pursue.
B. The
Plan Administrator may at any time provide for the automatic termination of one
or more of the Corporation's outstanding repurchase rights applicable to the
shares described in Section II.A., above, and the immediate vesting of the
shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights upon an Involuntary
Termination of the Participant's Service within a designated period (not to
exceed eighteen (18) months) following the effective date of any Change in
Control in which those repurchase rights are assigned to the successor
corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise continue in full force and
effect.
III. SHARE
ESCROW/LEGENDS
Unvested
shares may, in the Plan Administrator's discretion, be held in escrow by the
Corporation until the Participant's interest in such shares vests or may be
issued directly to the Participant with restrictive legends on the certificates
evidencing those unvested shares.
IV. SECTION
83(b) ELECTION
Provided
that the Plan Administrator shall not have prohibited the Participant from
making the following election, if a Participant shall, in connection with any
grant of share right awards make the election permitted under section 83(b) of
the Code (i.e., an election to include in such Participant's gross income in the
year of transfer the amounts specified in section 83(b) of the Code), such
Participant shall notify the Plan Administrator of such election within ten (10)
days of filing notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service, in
addition to any filing and notification required pursuant to regulations issued
under the authority of section 83(b) of the Code.
V. FINANCING
The
Plan Administrator in its sole discretion, may permit any Participant to pay the
purchase price of shares issued under the Stock Issuance Program by delivering a
full-recourse, interest bearing promissory note payable in one or more
installments. The terms of any such promissory note (including the interest rate
and the terms of repayment) shall be established by the Plan Administrator, in
its sole discretion. In no event may the maximum credit available to the
Participant exceed the sum of (i) the aggregate purchase price payable for the
purchased shares (less the amount determined by the Plan Administrator with
respect to the purchased shares to be capital within the meaning of Section 154
of the Delaware General Corporation Law) plus (ii) any Federal, state and local
income and employment tax liability incurred by the Participant in connection
with the or share purchase.

The Board may implement the Automatic Option Grant Program as of the first day
of any month beginning after the Plan Effective Date. Upon such implementation
of the Program (the "Program Effective Date"), options shall be granted on the
dates specified below:
1. Each
individual who is serving as a non-employee Board member on the Program
Effective Date and each individual who is first elected or appointed as a
non-employee Board member at any time after the Program Effective Date shall
automatically be granted, on the Program Effective Date or on the date of such
initial election or appointment, as appropriate, a Non-Statutory Option to
purchase Five Thousand (5,000) shares of Common Stock, (or any lesser amount
determined by the Board), provided that individual has not previously been in
the employ of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).
2. On
the
date of each Annual Stockholders Meeting beginning with the 2002 Annual
Stockholder Meeting, each individual who is to continue to serve as a
non-employee Board member shall automatically be granted a Non-Statutory Option
to purchase One Thousand (1,000) shares of Common Stock, (or
any lesser amount determined by the Board), provided
that individual has served as a non-employee Board member for at least six (6)
months.
B. Exercise
Price.
1. The
exercise price per share shall be equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the
Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant
date.
2. The
exercise price shall be payable in one or more of the alternative forms
authorized under the Discretionary Option Grant Program. Except to the extent
the sale and remittance procedure specified thereunder is utilized, payment of
the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on the Exercise
Date.
C. Option
Term.
Each option shall have a term of ten (10) years measured from the option grant
date.
D. Exercise
and Vesting of Options.
Each option shall be immediately exercisable for any or all of the option
shares. However, any unvested shares purchased under the option shall be subject
to repurchase by the Corporation, at the exercise price paid per share, upon the
Optionee's cessation of Board service prior to vesting in those shares. Each
initial 5,000-share option shall vest, and the Corporation's repurchase right
shall lapse, in a series of three (3) successive equal annual installments over
the Optionee's period of continued service as a Board member, with the first
such installment to vest upon the Optionee's completion of one (1) year of Board
service measured from the option grant date. Each annual 1,000-share option
shall vest, and the Corporation's repurchase right shall lapse, upon the
Optionee's completion of three (3) years of Board service measured from the
option grant date.
E. Cessation
of Board Service.
The following provisions shall govern the exercise of any options outstanding at
the time of the Optionee's cessation of Board service:
1. Any
option outstanding at the time of the Optionee's cessation of Board service for
any reason shall remain exercisable for a twelve (12)-month period following the
date of such cessation of Board service, but in no event shall such option be
exercisable after the expiration of the option term.
2. Any
option exercisable in whole or in part by the Optionee at the time of death may
be subsequently exercised by his or her Beneficiary.
3. Following
the Optionee's cessation of Board service, the option may not be exercised in
the aggregate for more than the number of shares for which the option was
exercisable on the date of such cessation of Board service. Upon the expiration
of the applicable exercise period or (if earlier) upon the expiration of the
option term, the option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any
vested shares for which the option has not been exercised. However, the option
shall, immediately upon the Optionee's cessation of Board service, terminate and
cease to be outstanding for any and all shares for which the option is not
otherwise at that time exercisable.
4. However,
should the Optionee cease to serve as a Board member by reason of death or
Permanent Disability, then all shares at the time subject to the option shall
immediately vest so that such option may, during the twelve (12)-month exercise
period following such cessation of Board service, be exercised for all or any
portion of those shares as fully-vested shares of Common Stock.
II. REMAINING
TERMS
The
remaining terms of each option granted under the Automatic Option Grant Program

Non-Statutory Options or unvested shares of Common Stock under the Plan with the
right to use shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of all or part of the
Withholding Taxes incurred by such holders in connection with the exercise of

The election to have the Corporation withhold, from the shares of Common Stock
otherwise issuable upon the exercise of such Non-Statutory Option or the vesting
of such shares, a portion of those shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value
equal to the percentage of the Withholding Taxes (not to exceed one hundred

Value equal to the percentage of the Taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent
(100%)) designated by the holder.
III. EFFECTIVE
DATE AND TERM OF THE PLAN
A. The
Plan shall become effective immediately upon the Plan Effective Date. However,
the Salary Investment Option Grant and Automatic Option Grant Programs shall not
be implemented until such time as the Plan Administrator and the Board,
respectively, may deem appropriate. Options may be granted under the
Discretionary Option Grant Program at any time on or after the Plan Effective
Date. However, no options granted under the Plan may be exercised, and no shares
shall be issued under the Plan, until the Plan is approved by the Corporation's
stockholders. If such stockholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12)
months after the Plan Effective Date, then all options previously granted under
this Plan shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, and no further options
shall be granted and no shares shall be issued under the Plan.
B. The
Plan shall terminate upon the earliest
of (i) the tenth anniversary of the Plan Effective Date, (ii) the date on
which all shares available for issuance under the Plan shall have been issued as
fully-vested shares or (iii) the termination of all outstanding options in
connection with a Change in Control. Upon such plan termination, all outstanding
options and unvested stock issuances shall thereafter continue to have force and
effect in accordance with the provisions of the documents evidencing such grants
or issuances.
C. The
Plan shall be the controlling document. No other statements, representations,
explanatory materials or examples, oral or written, may amend the Plan in any
manner. The Plan shall be binding upon and enforceable against the Corporation
and its successors and assigns.
IV. AMENDMENT
OF THE PLAN
A. The
Board shall have complete and exclusive power and authority to amend or modify
the Plan in any or all respects. However, no such amendment or modification
shall adversely affect the rights and obligations with respect to stock options
or unvested stock issuances at the time outstanding under the Plan unless the
Optionee or the Participant consents to such amendment or modification. In
addition, certain amendments may require stockholder approval pursuant to
applicable laws or regulations.
B. Options
to purchase shares of Common Stock may be granted under the Discretionary Option
Grant and Salary Investment Option Grant Programs and shares of Common
Stock may be issued under the Stock Issuance Program that are in each instance
in excess of the number of shares then available for issuance under the Plan,
provided any excess shares actually issued under those programs shall be held in
escrow until there is obtained stockholder approval of an amendment sufficiently
increasing the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the
Plan. If such stockholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months
after the date the first such excess issuances are made, then (i) any
unexercised options granted on the basis of such excess shares shall terminate
and cease to be outstanding and (ii) the Corporation shall promptly refund to
the Optionees and the Participants the exercise or purchase price paid for any
excess shares issued under the Plan and held in escrow, together with interest
(at the applicable Short Term Federal Rate) for the period the shares were held
in escrow, and such shares shall thereupon be automatically cancelled and cease
to be outstanding.
V. USE
OF PROCEEDS
Any
cash proceeds received by the Corporation from the sale of shares of Common
Stock under the Plan shall be used for general corporate purposes.
VI. REGULATORY
APPROVALS/LEGAL COMPLIANCE
A. The
implementation of the Plan, the granting of any stock option under the Plan and
the issuance of any shares of Common Stock (i) upon the exercise of any granted
option or (ii) under the Stock Issuance Program shall be subject to the
Corporation's procurement of all approvals and permits required by regulatory
authorities having jurisdiction over the Plan, the stock options granted under
it and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to it.
B. No
shares of Common Stock or other assets shall be issued or delivered under the
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
Stock Exchange (or the Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, if
applicable) on which Common Stock is then listed for trading.
C. With
respect to persons subject to section 16 of the 1934 Act, it is the intent of
the Corporation that the Plan and all transactions under the Plan comply with
all applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors under the 1934 Act. In
addition, it is the intent of the Corporation that the Plan and the options and
stock issuances awarded under the Plan comply with the applicable provisions of
section 162(m) of the Code and section 422 of the Code. To the extent that any
legal requirement of section 16 of the 1934 Act or section 162(m) or 422 of the
Code as set forth in the Plan ceases to be required under section 16 of the 1934
Act or section 162(m) or 422 of the Code, that Plan provision shall cease to
apply. The Plan Administrator may revoke any option or stock issuance if it is
contrary to law or modify an award to bring it into compliance with any valid
and mandatory government regulation.
VII. NO
EMPLOYMENT/SERVICE RIGHTS
Nothing
in the Plan shall confer upon an Optionee or a Participant any right to continue
in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise
restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary
employing or retaining such person) or of the Optionee or the Participant, which
rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate such person's Service
at any time for any reason, with or without cause.
VIII. CORPORATE
TRANSACTIONS
Nothing
contained in this Plan shall be construed to (i) limit the right of the Plan
Administrator to make awards under this Plan in connection with the acquisition,
by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the business or
assets of any corporation, firm or association, including awards to employees
thereof who become Employees or for other proper corporate purposes, or (ii)
limit the right of the Corporation to grant stock options or make other awards
outside of this Plan. Without limiting the foregoing, the Plan Administrator may
make an award to an employee of another corporation who becomes an Employee by
reason of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of stock or property,
reorganization or liquidation involving the Corporation (or any Parent or
Subsidiary) in substitution for a stock option or restricted stock grant made by
such corporation. The terms and conditions of the substitute grants may vary
from the terms and conditions required by the Plan and from those of the
substituted stock incentives. The Corporation shall prescribe the provisions of
the substitute grants.
IX. GOVERNING
LAW
The
validity, construction, interpretation and effect of the Plan and of the
documents and other instruments issued under the Plan shall be governed and
construed by and determined in accordance with the laws of the State of
Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions
thereof.
X. NATURE
OF PAYMENTS
Any
and all grants of options, payments of cash, or deliveries of shares of Common
Stock hereunder shall constitute special incentive payments to the Optionees and
Participants and shall not be taken into account in computing the amount of
salary or compensation of the Optionees and Participants for the purposes of
determining any pension, retirement, death or other benefits under any pension,
retirement, profit-sharing, bonus, life insurance or other employee benefit plan
of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary) or any agreement between the
Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary), on the one hand, and the Optionee or
Participant, on the other hand, except as such plan or agreement shall otherwise
expressly provide.
XI.
NON-UNIFORM DETERMINATIONS
The
Plan Administrator's determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may
be made by the Plan Administrator's selectively among persons who receive, or
are eligible to receive, awards under the Plan (whether or not such persons are
similarly situated).
XII. NO
FRACTIONAL SHARES
No
fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the
Plan or any Award. The Plan Administrator shall determine whether cash, other
awards or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional
shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be
forfeited or otherwise eliminated.
XIII. HEADINGS
Article
and Section headings are for reference only. In the event of a conflict between
a heading and the content of an Article or a Section, the content of the
respective Article or Section shall control.
APPENDIX
The
following definitions shall be in effect under the Plan:
A. Automatic
Option Grant Program
shall mean the automatic option grant program, if any, in effect under the
Plan.
