Any such adjustment determined by the Committee

11

shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Company and all Participants, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns. In connection with any Section 4.2 Event, the Committee may provide for the cancellation of any outstanding Awards and payment in cash or other property in exchange therefor, in a manner intended to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code. Except as provided in this Section 4.2 or in the applicable Award agreement, a Participant shall have no rights by reason of any issuance by the Company of any class of securities convertible into stock of any class, any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any stock dividend, any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class, any sale or Transfer of all or part of the Company’s assets or business or any other change affecting the Company’s capital structure or business.

(d) In connection with an Acquisition Event, the Committee may terminate all outstanding and unexercised Stock Options or other Awards that provide for a Participant elected exercise (“Exercisable Awards”), effective as of the date of the Acquisition Event, by delivering notice of termination to each Participant at least ten days prior to the date of consummation of the Acquisition Event, in which case during the period from the date on which such notice of termination is delivered to the consummation of the Acquisition Event, each such Participant shall have the right to exercise his or her Exercisable Awards that are then outstanding, whether or not vested as of the date on which such notice of termination is delivered (or, at the discretion of the Committee, without regard to any limitations on exercisability otherwise contained in the Award agreements), contingent upon and subject to the occurrence of the Acquisition Event, and, if the Acquisition Event does not take place within a specified period after giving such notice for any reason whatsoever, the notice and exercise pursuant thereto shall be null and void. If the Acquisition Event does take place after giving such notice, any Exercisable Awards not exercised prior to the date of the consummation of such Acquisition Event shall be forfeited simultaneous with the consummation of the Acquisition Event.

6.1 Stock Options. Each Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be any of the following: (a) an Incentive Stock Option; (b) a Non-Qualified Stock Option; or (c) an EMI Share Option.

6.2 Grants. Subject to Section 5.2, the Committee may grant to any Eligible Employee (other than an EMI Eligible Employee) Incentive Stock Options, Non-Qualified Stock Options or both types of Stock Options, and may grant to any EMI Eligible Employee EMI Share Options. To the extent that any Stock Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option (whether because of its provisions or the time or manner of its exercise or otherwise), such Stock Option or the portion thereof that does not qualify, shall constitute a separate Non-Qualified Stock Option. The Committee may grant any Consultant or Non-Employee Director one or more Non-Qualified Stock Options.

13

6.3 Terms of Stock Options. Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions, and shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine:

(a) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to a Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee on the date of the grant; provided, that the per share exercise price of a Stock Option shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) (or, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, one hundred ten percent (110%)) of the Fair Market Value thereof on the date of the grant SAVE THAT the exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to an EMI Share Option may be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value thereof on the date of grant, but not in any event less than the par value of such a share of Common Stock.

(b) Stock Option Term. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee; provided, that (i) no Stock Option shall be exercisable more than ten years after the date such Stock Option is granted; (ii) the term of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder shall not exceed five years; and (iii) no EMI Share Option may be exercised more than 12 months after the date of death of the individual to whom it was granted.

(c) Exercisability. The exercisability of each Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant.

(d) Method of Exercise. A Stock Option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time and from time to time during the Stock Option term by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be acquired. Such notice shall be in a form acceptable to the Committee and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price as follows: (i) in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company; (ii) solely to the extent permitted by applicable law, if the Common Stock is traded on a national securities exchange or quoted on a national quotation system, through a procedure whereby the Participant delivers irrevocable instructions to a broker reasonably acceptable to the Committee to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the purchase price, to the extent authorized by the Committee; or (iii) on such other terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Committee. No shares of Common Stock or Units shall be issued until payment therefor, as provided herein, has been made or provided for.

(e) Incentive Stock Option Limitations. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant) of the Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Eligible Employee (other than an EMI Eligible Employee) during any calendar year under the Plan or any other stock option plan of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Parent exceeds $100,000, such Stock Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. In addition, if an Eligible Employee (other than an EMI Eligible Employee) does not remain employed by

14

the Company, any Subsidiary or any Parent at all times from the time an Incentive Stock Option is granted until three months prior to the date of exercise thereof (or such other period as required by applicable law), such Stock Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Should any provision of the Plan not be necessary for the Stock Options to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, or should any additional provisions be required, the Committee may amend the Plan accordingly, without the necessity of obtaining the approval of the stockholders of the Company.

(f) Form, Modification, Extension and Renewal of Stock Options. Subject to the terms and conditions and within the limitations of the Plan, Stock Options shall be evidenced by such form of agreement or grant as is approved by the Committee, and the Committee may (i) modify, extend or renew outstanding Stock Options granted under the Plan (provided, that (x) the rights of a Participant are not reduced or adversely affected without his or her consent and (y) such action does not subject the Stock Options to Section 409A of the Code), and (ii) accept the surrender of outstanding Stock Options (to the extent not theretofore exercised) and authorize the granting of new Stock Options in substitution therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the Registration Date an outstanding Stock Option may not be modified to reduce the exercise price thereof and a new Stock Option at a lower price may not be substituted for a surrendered Stock Option (other than adjustments or substitutions in accordance with Section 4.2), unless such action is approved by the stockholders of the Company.

(g) Other Terms and Conditions, Stock Options may contain such other provisions, which shall not be inconsistent with any of the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem appropriate, as set forth in a Stock Option grant agreement.

(h) Limits on the grant of EMI Share Options.

(i) An EMI Share Option may only be granted to an EMI Eligible Employee insofar as the initial market value of shares of Common Stock which may be acquired on exercise of the EMI Share Option (determined as mentioned in paragraph 56 of Schedule 5 in the EMI Code) and aggregated, if appropriate, with certain other rights to acquire Shares (as referred to in paragraph 5 of Schedule 5 in the EMI Code), including:

15

does not exceed £250,000 or such other limit as is from time to time specified in the EMI Code.

(ii) No EMI Options shall be granted if such grant would cause the limit of £3 million on the value of shares of Common Stock subject to unexercised EMI Share Options, or such other limit as is specified in paragraph 7 of Schedule 5 in the EMI Code from time to time, to be exceeded.

ARTICLE VII

RESTRICTED STOCK

7.1 Awards of Restricted Stock.

(a) Restricted Stock may be issued either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the Eligible Employees, Consultants and Non-Employee Directors to whom, and the time or times within which, grants of Restricted Stock will be made, the number of shares to be awarded, the purchase price (if any) to be paid by the Participant (subject to Section 7.2), the time or times at which such Awards may be subject to forfeiture (if any), the vesting schedule (if any) and rights to acceleration thereof, and all other terms and conditions of the Awards. The Committee may condition the grant or vesting of Restricted Stock upon the attainment of specified performance targets or such other factors as the Committee may determine.

(b) Restriction Period. The Participant shall not be permitted to Transfer shares of Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan during a period set by the Committee (if any) (the “Restriction Period”) commencing with the date of such Award, as set forth in the applicable Award agreement and such agreement shall set forth a vesting schedule and any events that would accelerate vesting of the shares of Restricted Stock. Within these limits, based on service or such other factors or criteria as the Committee may determine, the Committee may condition the grant or provide for the lapse of such restrictions in installments in whole or in part, or may accelerate the vesting of all or any part of any Restricted Stock Award.

7.2 Awards and Certificates. An Eligible Employee, Consultant and Non-Employee Director selected to receive Restricted Stock shall not have any rights with respect to such Award, unless and until such Participant has delivered a fully executed copy of the Award agreement evidencing the Award to the Company and has otherwise complied with the applicable terms and conditions of such Award. Further, such Award shall be subject to the following conditions:

16

(a) Purchase Price. The purchase price (if any) of Restricted Stock shall be determined by the Committee, but shall not be less than as permitted under applicable law.

(b) Acceptance. Awards of Restricted Stock must be accepted within a period of 60 days (or such shorter period as the Committee may specify at grant) after the grant date, by executing an Award agreement and by paying whatever price (if any) the Committee has designated thereunder and all applicable withholding taxes due upon the granting and acceptance of the Award (if any) in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.4.

(c) Legend. Each Participant receiving Restricted Stock shall be issued a stock certificate in respect of such shares of Restricted Stock, unless the Committee elects to use another system, such as book entries by the transfer agent, as evidencing ownership of Restricted Stock. Such certificate shall, in addition to any legends required by applicable securities laws, be registered in the name of such Participant, and shall bear any legends required by applicable securities laws, as well as an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Award, substantially in the following form:

“The anticipation, alienation, attachment, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge of the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) of the Xenetic Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) Equity Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time), and an Award agreement entered into between the registered owner and the Company dated                     . Copies of such Plan and Award agreement are on file at the principal office of the Company.”

(d) Custody. The Committee may require that any stock certificates evidencing such shares be held in custody by the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that, as a condition of any grant of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have delivered a duly signed stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Common Stock covered by such Award.

(e) Rights as Stockholder. Except as provided in this subsection and subsection (d) above and as otherwise determined by the Committee, the Participant shall have, with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, all of the rights of a holder of shares of Common Stock of the Company including the right to receive any dividends, the right to vote such shares and, subject to and conditioned upon the full vesting of shares of Restricted Stock, the right to tender such shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payment of dividends shall be deferred until, and conditioned upon, the expiration of the applicable Restriction Period, unless the Committee specifies otherwise at the time of the Award.

(f) Lapse of Restrictions. If and when the Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the Restricted Stock subject to such Restriction Period, the

17

certificates for such shares shall be delivered to the Participant. The legend referred to in subsection (c) above shall be removed from said certificates at the time of delivery to the Participant except as otherwise required by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, actual certificates shall not be issued to the extent that book entry recordkeeping is used.

8.1 Other Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant to Eligible Employees, Consultants and Non-Employee Directors Other Stock-Based Awards, including shares of Common Stock awarded purely as a bonus and not subject to any restrictions or conditions, shares of Common Stock in payment of the amounts due under an incentive or performance plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or an Affiliate, stock equivalent units, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, and Awards valued by reference to the value of shares of Common Stock. The Committee may condition the grant or vesting of Other Stock-Based Awards upon the attainment of specified performance criteria or such other factors as the Committee may determine.

To the extent permitted by law, the Committee may permit Eligible Employees or Non-Employee Directors to defer all or a portion of their cash compensation in the form of Other Stock-Based Awards granted under this Plan, subject to the terms and conditions of any deferred compensation arrangement established by the Company, which shall be in a manner intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

8.2 Terms and Conditions. Other Stock-Based Awards made pursuant to this Article VIII shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

Any attempt to Transfer Stock Options other than in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.1 shall be void.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may determine at the time of grant or thereafter that a Non-Qualified Stock Option is Transferable to a Family Member of a Participant, in whole or in part and in such circumstances, and under such conditions, as specified by the Committee; provided, that such Transfer shall not be effective unless and until the Company shall have been furnished with information reasonably satisfactory to it demonstrating that such Transfer is exempt from or not subject to the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws. A Non-Qualified Stock Option that is Transferred to a Family Member pursuant to the preceding sentence (i) may not be subsequently Transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and (ii) remains subject to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Stock Option agreement.

(c) All Awards Transferred to a Family Member (and all shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of a Stock Option and held by a Family Member) shall be subject to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Stock Option agreement.

(d) In the event of a Participant’s death, the Committee may require the transferee of a Participant to supply it with written notice of the Participant’s death and to supply it with a copy of the will or such other evidence as the Committee deems necessary to establish the validity of the Transfer of a Stock Option. The Committee may also require the agreement of the transferee to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Plan.

19

(e) Prior to the Registration Date or such other date determined by the Committee, no Participant shall Transfer any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to an Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant shall have the right to Transfer such shares of Common Stock to a Family Member who takes the shares subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award or stockholders agreement to which the Company is a party; provided, that such Transfer shall not be effective unless and until the Company shall have been furnished with information reasonably satisfactory to it demonstrating that such Transfer is exempt from or not subject to the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws. Any attempt to Transfer any shares of Common Stock other than in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.1 shall be void and immediately cancelled.

(f) No Award shall in any manner be liable for, or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any Person who shall be entitled to such Award, or be subject to attachment or legal process for or against such Person.

9.2 Termination. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant, the following shall apply in the event of a Termination of a Participant:

(a) Rules Applicable to Stock Options.

(i) Termination by Reason of Death or Disability. If a Participant’s Termination is by reason of death or Disability, all Stock Options that were granted to such Participant that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant’s Termination may be exercised by the Participant, or Family Member to whom such Stock Options were Transferred (or, in the case of death, by the legal representative of the Participant’s estate), at any time within a period of one year after the date of such Termination, but in no event later than the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options, after which time such Stock Options automatically shall terminate.

(ii) Involuntary Termination without Cause or Voluntary Termination. If a Participant’s Termination is by involuntary termination by the Company without Cause or a voluntary Termination for or without Good Reason by the Participant (other than a voluntary termination described in subsection (iii)(2) below), all Stock Options that were granted to such Participant that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant’s Termination may be exercised by the Participant, or Family Member to whom such Stock Options were Transferred, at any time within a period of 90 days after the date of such Termination, but in no event later than the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options, after which time such Stock Options automatically shall terminate.

20

(iii) Termination for Cause; Voluntary Termination without Good Reason. If a Participant’s Termination: (1) is for Cause, (2) is a voluntary Termination by the Participant after the occurrence of an event that would be grounds for a Termination for Cause, all Stock Options, whether vested or not vested, that were granted to such Participant shall automatically terminate on the date of such Termination.

(iv) Unvested Stock Options. Stock Options that were granted to a Participant and are not vested as of the date of such Participant’s Termination for any reason shall terminate on the date of such Termination.

(b) Rules Applicable to Restricted Stock. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant or thereafter, during the relevant Restriction Period, upon a Participant’s Termination for any reason, all Restricted Stock that was granted to such Participant and still subject to restriction shall be forfeited.

(c) Rules Applicable to other Stock-Based Awards. The effect of a Participant’s Termination on any Other Stock-Based Award shall be as provided in the applicable Award agreement.

(a) accelerate, vest or cause the restrictions to lapse with respect to all or any portion of an Award;

(b) cancel Awards for fair value (as determined by the Committee) which, in the case of Stock Options or other Exercisable Awards may equal the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration to be paid in the Change in Control transaction to holders of the same number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Options or other Exercisable Awards (or, if no consideration is paid in any such transaction, the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Options or other Exercisable Awards on the date of such cancellation) over the aggregate exercise price of such Stock Options or Awards;

(c) provide for the issuance of substitute Awards that will substantially preserve the otherwise applicable terms of any affected Award previously granted hereunder as determined by the Committee; or

ARTICLE XI

TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT

11.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Board or the Committee may at any time, and from time to time, amend, in whole or in part, any or all of the provisions of the Plan (including any amendment deemed necessary to ensure that the Company may comply with any regulatory requirement referred to in Article XIV or Section 409A of the Code as described below), or suspend or terminate it entirely, retroactively or otherwise; provided, that (x) if the Committee determines that the rights of a Participant with respect to Awards granted prior to such amendment, suspension or termination, may be adversely impaired in any material respect, the consent of such Participant shall be required, and (y) without the approval of the stockholders of the Company entitled to vote in accordance with applicable law, no amendment may be made that would:

(a) increase the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan (other than due to an adjustment under Section 4.2);

(b) change the classification of individuals eligible to receive Awards under the Plan;

(c) decrease the minimum exercise price of any Stock Option;

11.2 The Committee may amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, subject to Article IV; provided, that no such amendment or other action by the Committee shall adversely affect the rights of any holder without the holder’s consent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Board or the Committee may amend the Plan or any Award granted hereunder at any time without a Participant’s consent to comply with Section 409A of the Code or any other applicable law. Nothing in the Plan is intended to provide a guarantee of particular tax treatment to any Participant.

22

ARTICLE XII

UNFUNDED PLAN

12.1 The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan. With respect to any payments as to which a Participant has a fixed and vested interest but that are not yet made to a Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.

ARTICLE XIII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

13.1 Legend. The Committee may require each Person receiving shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award granted under the Plan to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such Person is acquiring the shares without a view to distribution thereof and such other securities law related representations as the Committee shall request. In addition to any legend required by the Plan, the certificates and book entry accounts for such shares may include any legend that the Committee deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on Transfer.

All certificates and book entry accounts for shares of Common Stock delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Common Stock is then listed or any national automated quotation system on which the Common Stock is then quoted, any applicable Federal or state securities law, and any applicable corporate law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

13.2 Other Plans. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Board from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements, subject to stockholder approval if such approval is required; and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

13.3 No Right to Employment/Consultancy/Directorship. Neither the Plan nor the grant of any Award hereunder shall give any Participant or other employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director any right with respect to continuance of employment, consultancy or directorship by the Company or any of its Affiliates, or shall limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates by which an employee is employed or a Consultant or Non-Employee Director is retained to terminate his or her employment, consultancy or directorship at any time.

13.4 Withholding of Taxes. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any payment to be made to a Participant, or to otherwise require, prior to the issuance or delivery of any shares of Common Stock or the payment of any cash hereunder, payment by the Participant of, the minimum Federal, state or local taxes statutorily required to be withheld. Upon the vesting of Restricted Stock (or any other Award that is taxable upon vesting), or upon making an

23

election under Section 83(b) of the Code, a Participant shall pay the minimum statutorily required withholding taxes to the Company. Any statutorily required withholding obligation with regard to any Participant may be satisfied, subject to the consent of the Committee, by reducing the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant or by delivering shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant. Any fraction of a share of Common Stock required to satisfy such tax obligations shall be disregarded and the amount due shall be paid instead in cash by the Participant.

13.5 Listing and Other Conditions.

(a) Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if at any time on or after the Registration Date the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or national automated quotation system, the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award shall be conditioned upon such shares being listed on such exchange or system. The Company shall have no obligation to issue such shares unless and until such shares are so listed, and the right to exercise any Award with respect to such shares shall be suspended until such listing has been effected.

(b) If at any time counsel to the Company shall be of the opinion that any sale or delivery of shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award is or may in the circumstances be unlawful, result in the imposition of excise taxes on the Company under the statutes, rules or regulations of any applicable jurisdiction or violate the rules of any established securities exchange, the Company shall have no obligation to make such sale or delivery, or to make any application or to effect or to maintain any qualification or registration under the Securities Act or otherwise with respect to shares of Common Stock or Awards, and the right to exercise any Award shall be suspended until, in the opinion of said counsel, such sale or delivery will be lawful, will not result in the imposition of excise taxes on the Company and will not violate the rules of any established securities exchange.

(c) Upon termination of any period of suspension under this Section 13.5, an Award affected by such suspension that shall not then have expired or terminated shall be reinstated as to all shares available before such suspension and as to shares that would otherwise have become available during the period of such suspension, but no such suspension shall extend the term of any Award.

(d) A Participant shall be required to supply the Company with any certificates, representations and information that the Company requests and otherwise cooperate with the Company in obtaining any listing, registration, qualification, exemption, consent or approval the Company deems necessary or appropriate.

13.6 Governing Law. All matters arising out of or relating to the Plan, the actions taken in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby, including its validity, interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Nevada, without giving effect to its principles of conflict of laws.

24

13.7 Construction. Wherever any words are used in the Plan in the masculine gender they shall be construed as though they were also used in the feminine gender in all cases where they would so apply. As used herein, (i) “or” shall mean “and/or” and (ii) “including” or “include” shall mean “including, without limitation.” Any reference herein to an agreement in writing shall be deemed to include an electronic writing to the extent permitted by applicable law.

13.8 Other Benefits. No Award granted or paid out under the Plan shall be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits under any retirement plan of the Company or its Affiliates nor affect any benefits under any other benefit plan now or subsequently in effect under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to the level of compensation.

13.9 Costs. The Company shall bear all expenses associated with administering the Plan, including expenses of issuing Common Stock pursuant to any Award granted hereunder.

13.10 No Right to Same Benefits. The provisions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each Participant, and Awards granted to individual Participants need not be the same.

13.11 Severability of Provisions. If at any time any of the provisions of the Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable or are prohibited by the laws of the jurisdiction where they are to be performed or enforced, by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to duration or geographic scope or scope of the activities restricted, or for any other reason, such provisions shall be considered divisible and shall become and be immediately amended to include only such restrictions and to such extent as shall be deemed to be reasonable and enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over the Plan and the provisions of the Plan, as so amended, shall be valid and binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provisions had not been included.

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

13.13 Securities Act Compliance. Except as the Company or Committee shall otherwise determine, the Plan is intended to comply with Section 4(2) or Rule 701 of the Securities Act.

13.14 Successors and Assigns. The Plan shall be binding on all successors and permitted assigns of a Participant, including the estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator or trustee of such estate.

13.16 Agreement. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Award agreement, as a condition to the grant of an Award, if requested by the Company or the Lead Underwriter, a Participant shall irrevocably agree not to sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase,

25

transfer the economic risk of ownership in, make any short sale of, pledge or otherwise Transfer or dispose of, any interest in any Common Stock or any securities convertible into, derivative of, or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any other rights to purchase or acquire Common Stock (except Common Stock included in such public offering or acquired on the public market after such offering) during such period of time following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act that the Lead Underwriter shall specify (the “Lock-up Period”). The Participant shall further agree to sign such documents as may be requested by the Lead Underwriter or the Company to effect the foregoing and agree that the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to Common Stock acquired pursuant to a Stock Option until the end of such Lock-up Period.

13.17 No Rights as Stockholder. Subject to the provisions of the Award agreement, no Participant shall have any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Award until such individual becomes the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Award.

13.18 Section 409A of the Code. The following provisions of this Section 13.18 shall not apply in relation to the grant of an EMI Share Option to an EMI Eligible Employee. Although the Company does not guarantee to a Participant the particular tax treatment of any Award, all Awards are intended to comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the Plan and any Award agreement shall be limited, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. To the extent that any Award constitutes “non qualified deferred compensation” pursuant to Section 409A of the Code (a “Section 409A Covered Award”), it is intended to be paid in a manner that will comply with Section 409A of the Code. In no event shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on a Participant by Section 409A of the Code or for any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in an Award to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to Section 409A Covered Awards:

(a) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of a Section 409A Covered Award providing for payment upon or following a termination of the Participant’s employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and, for purposes of any such provision of a Section 409A Covered Award, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean separation from service. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Plan or the Award, to the extent applicable, if the Participant is deemed on the date of the Participant’s Termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time, or if none, the default methodology set forth in Section 409A of the Code, then with regard to any such payment under a Section 409A Covered Award, to the extent required to be delayed in compliance with Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code, such payment shall not be made prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Participant’s separation from service, and (ii) the date of the Participant’s death.
