INFORMATION STATEMENT

WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND
YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY

This Information Statement is first being mailed on or about August 25, 2010 to the holders of record of the outstanding common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the "Common Stock") of Business Development Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), as of the close of business on August 13, 2010 (the "Record Date"), pursuant to Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). This Information Statement relates to a written consent in lieu of a meeting, dated August 13, 2010, (the "Written Consent") of a stockholder of the Company owning at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company as of the Record Date (the "Majority Stockholder"). Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this Information Statement to "Company," "we," "us," or "our" are references to Business Development Solutions, Inc.

The Written Consent approved (i) the Company's 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") and (ii) a change in the state of incorporation of the Company from Delaware to Nevada by merging the Company with and into a newly formed Nevada subsidiary (the "Reincorporation"), pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger (the "Plan of Merger"), in connection with which the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Nevada corporation shall become the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company.

The Written Consent constitutes the consent of a majority of the total number of shares of outstanding Common Stock and is sufficient under the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL, and the Company's Bylaws to approve the Plan and the Reincorporation. Accordingly, the Plan and the Reincorporation are not presently being submitted to the Company's other stockholders for a vote. The Plan is effective as of August 14, 2009, the date it was approved by our Board of Directors, and the Reincorporation will become effective upon the filing of Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State and Certificate of Ownership and Merger with the Delaware Secretary of State on or about September 15, 2010.

GENERAL INFORMATION

This Information Statement is being first mailed on or about August 25, 2010, to stockholders of the Company by the Board of Directors to provide material information regarding corporate actions that have been approved by the Written Consent of the Majority Stockholder.

Only one copy of this Information Statement is being delivered to two or more stockholders who share an address unless we have received contrary instruction from one or more of such stockholders. We will promptly deliver, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the Information Statement to a security holder at a shared address to which a single copy of the document was delivered. If you would like to request additional copies of the Information Statement, or if in the future you would like to receive multiple copies of information statements or proxy statements, or annual reports, or, if you are currently receiving multiple copies of these documents and would, in the future, like to receive only a single copy, please so instruct us by writing to the corporate secretary at the Company's executive offices at the address specified above.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR YOUR VOTE OR A PROXY STATEMENT, BUT RATHER AN INFORMATION STATEMENT DESIGNED TO INFORM YOU OF THE APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY'S 2009 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN AND CHANGE OF THE STATE OF INCORPORATION OF THE COMPANY FROM DELAWARE TO NEVADA.

The entire cost of furnishing this Information Statement will be borne by the Company. We will request brokerage houses, nominees, custodians, fiduciaries and other like parties to forward this Information Statement to the beneficial owners of the Common Stock held of record by them.

AUTHORIZATION BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE MAJORITY STOCKHOLDER

Under the DGCL and the Company's Bylaws, any action that can be taken at an annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that will be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted consent to such action in writing. The approval of the Plan and the Reincorporation requires the affirmative vote or written consent of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote per share of Common Stock on any matter which may properly come before the stockholders.

On the Record Date, the Company had 16,110,147 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding with the holders thereof being entitled to cast one vote per share.

On August 14, 2009, our board of directors (the "Board of Directors") unanimously adopted resolutions approving the Plan and recommended that our stockholders ratify the Plan as set forth in Appendix A within one year. On August 13, 2010, the Board of Directors unanimously adopted resolutions approving the Reincorporation and recommended that our stockholders approve the Plan of Merger as set forth in Appendix B. In connection with the adoption of these resolutions, the Board of Directors elected to seek the written consent of the holders of a majority of our outstanding stock in order to reduce associated costs and implement the proposals in a timely manner.

Our Board of Directors believes that the Plan will help us to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, provide additional incentive to our employees, directors and consultants, and promote the success of our business. Our Board of Directors believes that the change in our state of incorporation is desirable because it will result in the Company being incorporated in a state with no state income tax, no franchise fee and a respectable body of corporate law.

CONSENTING STOCKHOLDERS

On August 13, 2010, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Shu Keung Chui, being the record holder of 12,730,934 shares of our Common Stock, constituting 79.02% of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock approved in writing the Plan and the Reincorporation.

Accordingly, the Company has obtained all necessary corporate approvals in connection with the adoption of the Plan and the Reincorporation. The Company is not seeking written consent from any other stockholders, and the other stockholders will not be given an opportunity to vote with respect to the actions described in this Information Statement. All necessary corporate approvals have been obtained. This Information Statement is furnished solely for the purposes of advising stockholders of the action taken by written consent and giving stockholders notice of such actions taken as required by the Exchange Act.

The Plan is effective as of August 14, 2009, the date it was approved by our Board of Directors. The Company will, when permissible following the expiration of the 10-day period mandated by the DGCL and the 20-day period mandated by Rule 14C, execute the Plan of Merger and file Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada and Certificate of Ownership and Merger with the Secretary of State of Delaware to effect the Reincorporation. The last date on which the Articles of Merger and the Certificate of Ownership and Merger are filed is the effective date of the Reincorporation (the "Effective Date") which is expected to be on or about September 15, 2010.

DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY'S CAPITAL STOCK

Our authorized capital currently consists of 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the "Preferred Stock"). Each share of Common Stock entitles its record holder to one (1) vote per share. Holders of our Common Stock do not have cumulative voting, conversion, redemption rights or preemptive rights to acquire additional shares. The Board of Directors is authorized, subject to limits imposed by relevant Nevada laws, to issue shares of Preferred Stock in one or more classes or series within a class upon authority of the Board of Directors without further stockholder approval. Any Preferred Stock issued in the future may rank senior to the Common Stock with respect to the payment of dividends or amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, or both. In addition, any such shares of Preferred Stock may have class or series voting rights.

At the close of business on the Record Date, we had 16,110,147 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and no shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

CHANGE IN OUR STATE OF INCORPORATION
FROM DELAWARE TO NEVADA

On August 13, 2010, our Board of Directors adopted resolutions, subject to stockholder approval, to change the Company's state of incorporation from Delaware to Nevada. In order to accomplish the change in the state of incorporation, the Company will merge with and into a corporation which has been incorporated in Nevada specifically for that purpose under the name "Business Development Solutions, Inc." ("BDS"). Pursuant to the terms of the Plan of Merger, BDS will be the surviving corporation and the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock will automatically be converted into shares of BDS common stock at the rate of one share of BDS common stock for each one share of the Company's Common Stock. The form of the Plan of Merger of is attached hereto as Appendix B. Upon completion of the merger, the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of BDS will become the governing instruments of the Company and will differ in several respects from the current Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company, as more thoroughly discussed below.

Reasons for the Reincorporation

Nevada has adopted and implemented comprehensive and flexible corporation laws that are frequently revised and updated to accommodate changing legal and business needs and our Board of Directors believes that it will be beneficial to the Company and its stockholders to obtain the benefits of Nevada's corporation laws. Nevada courts have developed expertise in dealing with corporate legal issues and have produced a respectable body of case law construing Nevada corporation laws.

Certain Effects of the Change in State of Incorporation

The Reincorporation will effect a change in the Company's legal domicile; however, the Reincorporation will not result in any change in headquarters, business, jobs, management, location of any of offices or facilities, number of employees, assets, liabilities or net worth (other than as a result of the costs incident to the Reincorporation, which are immaterial). Management, including all directors and officers, will remain the same in connection with the Reincorporation and will assume identical positions with BDS. There will be no substantive change in the employment agreements for executive officers or in other direct or indirect interests of the current directors or executive officers as a result of the Reincorporation. Upon the effective time of the Reincorporation, each stockholder's shares of Common Stock will be converted into an equivalent number of shares of common stock of BDS.

As previously noted, the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of BDS will be the governing instruments of the surviving corporation following the merger with the Company, resulting in several changes from the current Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company. Some of these changes are purely procedural in nature, such as a change in the registered office and agent of the Company from an office and agent in Delaware to an office and agent in Nevada. Some changes, however, will be substantive in nature. There are also material differences between the DGCL and Nevada corporation laws. Certain substantive changes to the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company, as well as the material differences between Delaware and Nevada law are discussed below. Such summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Delaware and Nevada corporate laws and the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of BDS, copies of which are included herewith as Appendix C and Appendix D, respectively. For ease of comparison, the Company's current Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws are included herewith as Appendix E and Appendix F, respectively.

Changes to Articles of Incorporation

(a)

Change in Capitalization.

The Company's total authorized capital on the Record Date consisted of 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.00001 per share and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.00001 per share. The total authorized capital of BDS also consists of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.00001 per share and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.00001 per share. Accordingly, the board of directors of BDS will have additional shares of common stock available for issuance in the future. This will provide management with increased flexibility in taking prompt advantage of future potential acquisition and equity financing transactions without the expense and delay of calling meetings of the stockholders to authorize increases in authorized capital. The issuance of additional shares of common stock may, among other things, have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share and on the equity and voting power of existing holders of Common Stock and may adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock.

The additional shares of common stock authorized under BDS' Articles of Incorporation will be substantially identical to the shares of Common Stock now authorized under the Company's Articles of Incorporation. Holders of Common Stock are not entitled under the Company's Articles of Incorporation, and are not entitled under BDS' Articles of Incorporation, to preemptive rights to subscribe for additional securities that may be issued by BDS in the future.

The issuance of additional authorized common stock may have the effect of deterring or thwarting persons seeking to take control of BDS through a tender offer, proxy fight or otherwise, inhibiting the removal of incumbent management, or impeding a corporate transaction such as a merger. For example, the issuance of common stock could be used to deter or prevent such a change of control through dilution of stock ownership of persons seeking to take control or by rendering a transaction proposed by such persons more costly.

(b)

Limited Liability of Directors.

The Articles of Incorporation of BDS limit the liability of the Company's directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law. As a result, a director will have no personal liability to the Company or its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for (a) acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, or (b) the payment of distributions in violation of section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. The Company's current Articles of Incorporation also contain provision limiting the liability of the Company's directors under Delaware law. Our Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best interest of the Company to continue to provide such indemnification of our directors and officers under certain circumstances in order to attract and retain superior candidates for these positions. We understand, however, that insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Exchange Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to provisions of BDS' Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), such indemnification is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification by such director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being offered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Exchange Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

-5-



(c)

No Restrictions on Control Share Acquisitions.

The Articles of Incorporation of BDS provide that BDS elects not to be governed by the terms and provisions of Sections 78.378 through 78.3793, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, which are designed to provide stockholder protection by placing restrictions and imposing requirements with respect to certain acquisitions of a controlling interest in a corporation. The Company's current Articles of Incorporation do not contain any similar provision. Our Board of Directors has determined that opting into this statute would place unnecessary burdens on the Company from completing third party financings, and has thus decided to forego the provisions of these sections of the Nevada Revised Statutes.

(d)

No Restrictions on Business Combinations with Interested Stockholders.

The Articles of Incorporation of BDS provide that BDS elects not to be governed by the terms and provisions of Sections 78.411 through 78.444, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, which are designed to provide stockholder protection by placing restrictions and imposing requirements with respect to certain business combinations with persons who are included within the definition of "interested stockholders." The Company's current Articles of Incorporation do not contain any similar provision. Our Board of Directors has determined that opting into this statute would place unnecessary burdens on the Company in connection with the completion of beneficial business transactions with interested stockholders, and has thus decided to forego the provisions of these sections of the Nevada Revised Statutes.

Changes to Bylaws

(a)

Removal of Directors.

In accordance with Delaware law, the Company's current Bylaws provide that a director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed, with or without cause, at a meeting called expressly for the purpose of removing a director or directors if the number of votes cast for removal exceeds the number of votes cast against removal. BDS' Bylaws provide that any director may be removed, with or without cause, by the vote or written consent of stockholders representing not less than two-thirds of issued and outstanding capital stock entitled to vote.

(b)

Vacancies Occurring in Board of Directors.

Under the Company's current Bylaws, a vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors may be filled by a majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, except that a vacancy created by the removal of a director by the vote or written consent of the stockholders or by court order may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote. The stockholders may elect a director or directors at any time to fill any vacancy or vacancies not filled by the directors. Under BDS' Bylaws, a vacancy in the Board of Directors may only be filled by an affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum of the board of directors.

Change from Delaware Law to Nevada Law

As a result of the Reincorporation, the Company will be governed by Nevada corporation laws. The following chart summarizes some of the material differences between the DGCL and Nevada corporation laws. This chart does not address each difference between Delaware law and Nevada law, but focuses on some of those differences which the Company believes are most relevant to the existing stockholders. This chart is not intended as an exhaustive list of all differences, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Delaware and Nevada law.

Delaware

Nevada

     

Removal of Directors

     

The DGCL permits the holders of a majority of shares of a corporation without a classified board then entitled to vote in an election of directors, to remove directors, with or without cause. However, the Company's current Bylaws provide that, except for such additional directors, if any, elected by a series of preferred stock then outstanding, any Director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed, but only for cause, and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority in interest of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Corporation then entitled to vote at an election of Directors, voting together as a single class.

Under Nevada law, any one or all of the directors of a corporation may be removed by the holders of not less than two-thirds of the voting power of a corporation's issued and outstanding stock. Nevada does not distinguish between removal of directors with or without cause. BDS' Bylaws align with Nevada law and provide that any director may be removed either for or without cause by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the voting power of the issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote; provided, however, that notice of intention to act upon such matter shall have been given in the notice calling such meeting.

     

Dividends and other Distributions

     

Section 170 of the DGCL permits the directors of a corporation, subject to any restrictions contained in its certificate of incorporation, to declare and pay dividends upon the shares of its capital stock, either (1) out of its surplus, as computed in accordance with the DGCL, or (2) in case there is no surplus, out of its net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year. But such dividends cannot be declared out of net profits if the capital of the corporation, has diminished by depreciation in the value of its property, or by losses or otherwise, to an amount less than the aggregate amount of the capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets.

Section 174 of the DGCL also imposes on any director under whose administration distributions are declared in violation of the foregoing provision, personal liability to a corporation's creditors in the event of its dissolution or insolvency, up to the full amount of the unlawful distribution, for a period of 6 years following a dividend declaration, unless such director's dissent was recorded in the minutes of the proceedings approving the distribution.

Nevada law prohibits distributions to stockholders when the distributions would (i) render the corporation unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business and (ii) render the corporation's total assets less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of stockholders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution.

Section 78.300 of the NRS imposes on any director under whose administration distributions are declared in violation of the foregoing provision, personal liability to a corporation's creditors in the event of its dissolution or insolvency, up to the full amount of the unlawful distribution, for a period of 3 years following a dividend declaration, unless such director's dissent was recorded in the minutes of the proceedings approving the distribution.

     

Limitation of Liability

     

A Delaware corporation is permitted to adopt provisions in its certificate of incorporation limiting or eliminating the liability of a director to a company and its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such liability does not arise from certain proscribed conduct, including breach of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or liability to the corporation based on unlawful dividends or distributions or improper personal benefit. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation currently limits the liability of its directors to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Under Nevada law, unless the articles of incorporation provide for greater individual liability, a director or officer is not individually liable to the corporation or its stockholders for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act in his capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven that: (a) his act or failure to act constituted a breach of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer; and (b) his breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. BDS' Articles of Incorporation provides that no director or officer will be personally liable to the corporation or any of its stockholders for damages for any breach of fiduciary duty except (i) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, or (ii) for the payment of dividends in violation of Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes.

-7-



Indemnification

 

 

Under the DGCL, the indemnification of directors and officers is authorized to cover judgments, amounts paid in settlement, and expenses arising out of non-derivative actions where the director or officer acted in good faith and in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in criminal cases, where the director or officer had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. Unless limited or denied by the corporation's certificate of incorporation, indemnification is required to the extent of a director's or officer's successful defense. Additionally, under the DGCL, a corporation may reimburse directors and officers for expenses incurred in a derivative action.

However, the Company has included undertakings in various registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that in the event a claim for indemnification is asserted by a director or officer relating to liabilities under the Securities Act, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether indemnification would be against public policy and will be governed by any final adjudication of such issue.

In suits that are not brought by or in the right of the corporation, Nevada law permits a corporation to indemnify directors, officers, employees and agents for attorney's fees and other expenses, judgments and amounts paid in settlement. The person seeking indemnity may recover as long as he acted in good faith and believed his actions were either in the best interests of or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Similarly, the person seeking indemnification must not have had any reason to believe his conduct was unlawful.

In derivative suits, a corporation may indemnify its agents for expenses that the person actually and reasonably incurred. A corporation may not indemnify a person if the person was adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless a court otherwise orders.

No corporation may indemnify a party unless it makes a determination, through its stockholders, directors or independent counsel, that the indemnification is proper.

BDS' Certificate of Incorporation currently indemnifies its officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.

 

Increasing or Decreasing Authorized Shares

 

 

Delaware law contains no such similar provision.

Nevada law allows the board of directors of a corporation, unless restricted by the articles of incorporation, to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares in the class or series of the corporation's shares and correspondingly effect a forward or reverse split of any such class or series of the corporation's shares without a vote of the stockholders, so long as the action taken does not change or alter any right or preference of the stockholder and does not include any provision or provisions pursuant to which only money will be paid or script issued to stockholders who hold 10% or more of the outstanding shares of the affected class and series, and who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractions of shares in exchange for the cancellation of all of their outstanding shares.

 

Corporate Opportunity

 

 

Delaware law provides that contracts or transactions between a corporation and one or more of its officers or directors or an entity in which they have an interest is not void or voidable solely because of such interest or the participation of the director or officer in a meeting of the board or a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction if: (i) the material facts as to the relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the board or the committee, and the board or the committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of disinterested directors; (ii) the material facts as to the relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by a vote of the stockholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair as to the corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the board of directors, a committee thereof, or the stockholders.

Under Nevada law, a director breaches her duty of loyalty to the corporation if the director takes a business opportunity that is within the scope of the corporation's potential business for himself or presents it to another party without first giving the corporation an opportunity to fairly consider the business opportunity. All such opportunities should be presented first to the corporation and fully considered.

However, a contract or other transaction is not void or voidable solely because the contract or transaction is between a Nevada corporation and its director if the fact of financial interest is known to the board of directors or committee, and the board or committee authorizes, approves or ratifies the contract or transaction in good faith by a vote sufficient for the purpose without counting the vote of the interested director, and the contract or transaction is fair as to the corporation at the time it is authorized.

-8-



Expiration of Proxies

 

 

Section 212 of the DGCL provides that the appointment of a proxy with no expiration date may be valid for up to 3 years, but that a proxy may be provided for a longer period. Furthermore, a duly executed proxy may be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, it is coupled with an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the corporation generally, sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power.

Nevada law provides that proxies may not be valid for more than 6 months, unless the proxy is coupled with an interest or the stockholder specifies that the proxy is to continue in force for a longer period.

 

Interested Stockholder Combinations

 

 

Delaware has a business combination statute, set forth in Section 203 of the DGCL, which provides that any person who acquires 15% or more of a corporation's voting stock (thereby becoming an "interested stockholder") may not engage in certain "business combinations" with the target corporation for a period of three years following the time the person became an interested stockholder, unless (i) the board of directors of the corporation has approved, prior to the interested stockholder's acquisition of stock, either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the person becoming an interested stockholder, (ii) upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the person becoming an interested stockholder, that person owns at least 85% of the corporation's voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction is commenced (excluding shares owned by persons who are both directors and officers and shares owned by employee stock plans in which participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer) , or (iii) the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized by the affirmative vote (at an annual or special meeting and not by written consent) of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

For purposes of determining whether a person is the "owner" of 15% or more of a corporation's voting stock for purposes of Section 203 of the DGCL, ownership is defined broadly to include the right, directly or indirectly, to acquire the stock or to control the voting or disposition of the stock. A business combination is also defined broadly o include (i) mergers and sales or other dispositions of 10% or more of the assets of a corporation with or to an interested stockholder, (ii) certain transactions resulting in the issuance or transfer to the interested stockholder of any stock of the corporation or its subsidiaries, (iii) certain transactions which would result in increasing the proportionate share of the stock of a corporation or its subsidiaries owned by the interested stockholder, and (iv) receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit (except proportionately as a stockholder) of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits.

Section 78.438 of the Nevada Revised Statutes prohibits a Nevada corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder (any entity or person beneficially owning, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by any of these entities or persons) for a period of three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless prior to that date, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. Section 78.439 provides that business combinations after the three year period following the date that the stockholder becomes an interested stockholder may also be prohibited unless approved by the corporation's directors or other stockholders or unless the price and terms of the transaction meet the criteria set forth in the statute. In its Articles of Incorporation, BDS opts out of these provisions and so they are not applicable to the Company.

-9-



These restrictions placed on interested stockholders by Section 203 of the DGCL do not apply under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) if the corporation's original certificate of incorporation contains a provision expressly electing not to be governed by Section 203 or (ii) if the corporation, by action of its stockholders, adopts an amendment to its bylaws or certificate of incorporation expressly electing not to be governed by Section 203, provided that such an amendment is approved by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote and that such an amendment will not be effective until 12 months after its adoption (except for limited circumstances where effectiveness will occur immediately) and will not apply to any business combination with a person who became an interested stockholder at or prior to such adoption.

     

The Company's current Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision expressly electing not to be governed by that statute.

     
Control Share Acquisitions    
     

Delaware's control share acquisition statute generally provides that shares acquired in a "control share acquisition" will not possess any voting rights unless either the board of directors approves the acquisition or such voting rights are approved by a majority of the corporation's voting shares, excluding interested shares. Interested shares are those held by a corporation's officers and inside directors and by the acquiring party. A "control share acquisition" is an acquisition, directly or indirectly, by any person of ownership of, or the power to direct the exercise of voting power with respect to, issued and outstanding "control shares" of a publicly held Delaware corporation. "Control shares" are shares that, except for Delaware's control share acquisition statute, would have voting power that, when added to all other shares that can be voted by the acquiring party, would entitle the acquiring party, immediately after the acquisition of such shares, directly or indirectly, to exercise voting power in the election of directors within any of the following ranges: (1) at least 20% but less than 33 1/3% of all voting power; (2) at least 33 1/3% but less than a majority of all voting power; or (3) a majority or more of all voting power. The Company's current Certificate of Incorporation opts out of these provisions and so they are not applicable to the Company.

Sections 78.378 through 78.3793 of the Nevada Revised Statutes limit the voting rights of certain acquired shares in a corporation. The provisions generally apply to any acquisition of outstanding voting securities of a Nevada corporation that has 200 or more stockholders, at least 100 of which are Nevada residents, and conducts business in Nevada (an "issuing corporation") resulting in ownership of one of the following categories of an issuing corporation's then outstanding voting securities: (i) 20% or more but less than 23%; (ii) 23% or more but less than 50%; or (iii) 50% or more. The securities acquired in such acquisition are denied voting rights unless a majority of the security holders approve the granting of such voting rights. Unless an issuing corporation's articles of incorporation or bylaws then in effect provide otherwise: (i) voting securities acquired are also redeemable in part or in whole by an issuing corporation at the average price paid for the securities within 30 days if the acquiring person has not given a timely information statement to an issuing corporation or if the stockholders vote not to grant voting rights to the acquiring person's securities, and (ii) if outstanding securities and the security holders grant voting rights to such acquiring person, then any security holder who voted against granting voting rights to the acquiring person may demand the purchase from an issuing corporation, for fair value, all or any portion of his securities. In its Articles of Incorporation, BDS opts out of these provisions and so they are not applicable to the Company.

Filing Fees    
     

Delaware imposes annual franchise tax fees on all corporations incorporated in Delaware. The annual fee ranges from a nominal fee to a maximum of $165,000, based on an equation consisting of the number of shares authorized, the number of shares outstanding and the net assets of the corporation. The Company's Delaware annual franchise tax obligation for fiscal year 2008 was $32,000.

 

Nevada charges corporations incorporated in Nevada nominal annual corporate license renewal fees, and does not impose any franchise fees on corporations.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Nevada Law and BDS' Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

The SEC's Release No. 34-15230 requires disclosure and discussion of the effects of any stockholder proposal that may be used as an anti-takeover device. Certain provisions of Nevada's corporation law and BDS' Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control or an unsolicited acquisition proposal that a stockholder might consider favorable, including a proposal that might result in the payment of a premium over the market price for the shares held by stockholders. These provisions are summarized in the following paragraphs.

Change in Capitalization. BDS' Articles of Incorporation provide for authorized capital of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.00001 per share, and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.00001 per share, which shares constitute what is commonly referred to as "blank check" Preferred Stock, and which do not have any rights, privileges or preferences set forth in the BDS Articles of Incorporation. The issuance of additional common stock and preferred stock may make it more difficult for, or prevent or deter a third party from acquiring control of BDS or changing its board of directors and management, as well as, inhibit fluctuations in the market price of BDS' shares that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts. Specifically, the ability to issue such "blank check" preferred stock could give the board of directors the ability to hinder or discourage any attempt to gain control of BDS by a merger, tender offer at a control premium price, proxy contest or otherwise.

Limitation of Director Liability. BDS' Articles of Incorporation limit the liability of BDS' directors and officers to us or our stockholders to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law. Specifically, BDS' directors and officers will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of a director's fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability: (a) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law; or (b) under Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, which relates to unlawful payments of dividends.

Indemnification Arrangements. BDS' Bylaws provide that its directors and officers be indemnified and provide for the advancement to them of expenses in connection with actual or threatened proceedings and claims arising out of their status as such to the fullest extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes. We expect to enter into indemnification agreements with each of the BDS directors and executive officers that provide them with rights to indemnification and expense advancement to the fullest extent permitted under the Nevada Revised Statutes, similar to the indemnification agreements currently entered into with the Company's officers and directors providing rights to indemnification and expense advancement to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law.

Removal of Directors and Filling of Vacancies. The increase in the number of votes required to remove a director from the board of directors and giving remaining directors the sole right to fill a vacancy on the board of directors may make it more difficult for, or prevent or deter a third party from acquiring control of BDS or changing BDS' board of directors and management, as well as, inhibit fluctuations in the market price of BDS' shares that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts.

While it is possible that the management could use these provisions to resist or frustrate a third-party transaction providing an above-market premium that is favored by a majority of the stockholders, the Company did not intend to construct or enable any anti-takeover defense or mechanism on its behalf. The Company has no intent or plan to employ these provisions as anti-takeover devices and it does not have any plans or proposals to adopt any other provisions or enter into other arrangements that may have material anti-takeover consequences.

Termination, Abandonment or Amendment of the Plan of Merger

We anticipate that the Reincorporation will become effective upon the filing of Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State and Certificate of Ownership and Merger with the Delaware Secretary of State, on or about September 15, 2010. However, at any time before the effective date, the Plan of Merger may be terminated and the Merger may be abandoned for any reason whatsoever by the Board of Directors of either the Company or BDS, or by both, notwithstanding the approval of the stockholders. The Boards of Directors of the Company and BDS may amend the Plan of Merger at any time prior to filing it (or a certificate in lieu thereof) with the Secretaries of State of the States of Nevada and Delaware, provided that an amendment made subsequent to the adoption of the Plan of Merger by the stockholders of either corporation cannot: (i) alter or change the amount or kind of shares and/or rights to be received in exchange for or on conversion of all or any of the shares or any class or series thereof of such corporation; (ii) alter or change any provision of the certificate of incorporation of BDS to be effected by the Merger; or (iii) alter or change any of the terms or conditions of the Plan of Merger if such alteration or change would adversely affect the holders of any class or series of capital stock of any of the constituent companies.

Accounting Treatment

The Reincorporation will be accounted for as a reverse merger under which, for accounting purposes, the Company would be considered the acquirer and the surviving corporation, BDS, would be treated as the successor to the Company's historical operations. Accordingly, the Company's historical financial statements would be treated as the financial statements of the surviving corporation.

Anticipated Federal Tax Consequences

The Company has not requested and will not request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, nor has the Company requested or received a tax opinion from an attorney, as to the various tax consequences of the Reincorporation in the State of Nevada. The Company is structuring the Reincorporation in an effort to obtain the following consequences:

(a)

the Reincorporation of the Company in the State of Nevada to be accomplished by a merger between the Company and BDS, will constitute a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986;

   
(b)

no gain or loss for federal income tax purposes will be recognized by stockholders of the Company on receipt by them of the common stock of BDS in exchange for shares of the Company's Common Stock;

   
(c)

the basis of the BDS common stock received by stockholders of the Company in exchange for their shares of the Company's Common Stock pursuant to the Reincorporation in the State of Nevada will be the same as the basis for the Company's Common Stock; and

   
(d)

the holding period for the BDS common stock for capital gains treatment received in exchange for the Company's Common Stock will include the period during which the Company's Common Stock exchanged therefor is held.

This discussion should not be considered as tax or investment advice, and the tax consequences of the Reincorporation may not be the same for all stockholders. It should be noted that the foregoing positions are not binding on the Internal Revenue Service, which may challenge the tax-free nature of the Reincorporation in the state of Nevada. A successful challenge by the Internal Revenue Service could result in taxable income to the Company, BDS, and our stockholders, as well as other adverse tax consequences. ACCORDINGLY, EACH STOCKHOLDER SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO ALL OF THE POTENTIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HIM OR HER OF THE REINCORPORATION.

Exchange of Stock Certificates

Following effectiveness of the Reincorporation in Nevada, all stock certificates which represented shares of the Company's Common Stock shall represent ownership of BDS common stock. We will print new stock certificates and we will obtain a new CUSIP number for our common stock that reflects the name change and change in our state of incorporation, although stockholders will not be required to tender their old stock certificates for transfer. However, to eliminate confusion in transactions in the Company's securities in the over-the-counter market, management urges stockholders to surrender their old certificates in exchange for new certificates issued in the new name of the Company and has adopted a policy to facilitate this process. Each stockholder will be entitled to submit his or her old stock certificates (any certificates issued prior to the effective date of the change in the Company's state of incorporation) to the transfer agent of the Company, Stalt, Inc., and to be issued in exchange therefor, new common stock certificates representing the number of shares of BDS common stock of which each stockholder is the record owner after giving effect to the Reincorporation, and for a period of 30 days after the Effective Date, the Company will pay on one occasion only for such issuance. The Company will not pay for issuing stock certificates in the name of a person other than the name appearing on the old certificate or for the issuance of new stock certificates in excess of the number of old certificates submitted by a stockholder. STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S). The Company's registrar and transfer agent, STALT, Inc., may be contacted at 671 Oak Grove Avenue, Suite C, Menlo Park, California 94025. Their telephone number is (650) 321-7111.

-12-


Securities Act Consequences

The shares of BDS' stock to be issued in exchange for shares of the Company's stock are not being registered under the Securities Act. In that regard, BDS is relying on Rule 145(a)(2) under the Securities Act, which provides that a merger which has "as its sole purpose" a change in the domicile of a corporation does not involve the sale of securities for purposes of the Securities Act. Pursuant to Rule 145 under the Securities Act, the merger of the Company into BDS and the issuance of shares of common stock in the Nevada corporation in exchange for the shares of the common stock of the Delaware corporation is exempt from registration under the Securities Act, since the purpose of the transaction is a change of our domicile within the United States. The effect of the exemption is that the shares of our common stock issuable as a result of the Reincorporation may be resold by the former stockholders without restriction to the same extent that such shares may have been sold before the effectiveness of the Reincorporation.

DISSENTER'S RIGHTS

No dissenters' or appraisal rights are required under Delaware law because under Delaware law, BDS' sole stockholder was not required to approve the Reincorporation. The Plan of Merger adopted BDS' Articles of Incorporation, each outstanding share of the Company's common stock immediately prior to the effective date of the Reincorporation is to be an identical to each share of BDS' outstanding common stock after the effective date, and no additional shares of BDS' common stock are to be issued or delivered under the Agreement of Merger.

CHANGES TO OUR BUSINESS AND CHANGE OF CONTROL

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on January 28, 1987, under the name Atlas-Republic Corporation. Prior to 1997, the Company through its subsidiary, Geda Laboratories (Canada) Limited, or Geda, had acquired the exclusive marketing and distribution rights in Canada to certain proprietary products, including a topical (skin) barrier lotion and an antiseptic spermicide. Geda has been inactive since 1997, and in April 2002 was dissolved. On April 18, 2002, we effected our re-incorporation as a Delaware corporation by merging with our wholly-owned subsidiary, AMCO Transport Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, with AMCO continuing as the surviving corporation of the merger. In connection with the merger, our name was changed to AMCO Transport Holdings, Inc. Upon consummation of the merger, each share of common stock of Atlas-Republic Corporation (the predecessor corporation) was automatically exchanged for one share of common stock of AMCO Transport Holdings, Inc. (the then-surviving corporation) and the stockholders of Atlas automatically became stockholders of AMCO, in accordance with the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Re-incorporation and Merger between the two companies, dated April 23, 2002.

On November 19, 2004, Mr. Shu Keung Chui acquired, in a private transaction, 1,380,000 shares of our common stock directly from Bestway Coach Express, Inc., or Bestway, our then controlling stockholder, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement among Mr. Chui, Bestway and us. The 1,380,000 shares represented approximately 72.25% of our issued and outstanding common stock at the time of such transaction. Mr. Chui served as our Director, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer until March 30, 2009. On March 30, 2009, Mr. Chui resigned as our Chief Financial Officer and continues to serve as a Director, President and Chief Executive Officer.

-14-


On January 10, 2006, by a joint written consent of our Board of Directors and our controlling stockholder, Mr. Chui, our Board of Directors and Mr. Chui approved an amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation (i) to change our corporate name to "Business Development Solutions, Inc." and (ii) to effect a one-for-five reverse split of the outstanding shares of our common stock. This amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation was filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on February 27, 2006 and became effective on such date.

Stock Subject to the Plan.

   
a.

Stock Subject to the Plan. Subject to the provisions of Section 13, the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan is four million (4,000,000) Shares. The Shares may be authorized but unissued, or reacquired Common Stock.

   
b.

Lapsed Awards. If an Award expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full or, with respect to Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares or Performance Units, is forfeited in whole or in part to the Company, the unpurchased, forfeited or unissued Shares (as the case may be) which were subject to the Award will become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). With respect to SARs, only Shares actually issued pursuant to an SAR will cease to be available under the Plan; all remaining Shares subject to the SARs will remain available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated).

To the extent an Award under the Plan is paid out in cash rather than Shares, such cash payment will not result in reducing the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan.

Share Reserve. The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

Procedure. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or a Committee (or Committees) appointed by the Board, which Committee shall be constituted to comply with Applicable Laws. If and so long as the Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, the Board shall consider in selecting the Administrator and the membership of any committee acting as Administrator the requirements regarding: (i) "nonemployee directors" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act; (ii) "independent directors" as described in the listing requirements for any stock exchange on which Shares are listed; and (iii) Section 15(b)(i) of the Plan, if the Company grants any Qualified Performance-Based Award. The Board may delegate the responsibility for administering the Plan with respect to designated classes of eligible Participants to different committees consisting of two or more members of the Board, subject to such limitations as the Board or the Administrator deems appropriate. Committee members shall serve for such term as the Board may determine, subject to removal by the Board at any time.

    
b.

Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the approval of any relevant authorities, and in the case of a Committee, subject to the specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee, the Administrator will have the authority, in its discretion:

    
i.

to determine the Fair Market Value;

    
ii.

to select the Service Providers to whom Awards may be granted hereunder;

    
iii.

to determine the type of Award and number of Shares to be covered by each Award granted hereunder;

    
iv.

to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan;

    
v.

to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Awards may be exercised (which may be based on continued employment, continued service or performance criteria), any vesting acceleration (whether by reason of a Change of Control or otherwise) or waiver of forfeiture, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine;




    vi.

to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan, including the right to construe disputed or doubtful Plan and Award provisions;

    
    vii.

to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan;

    
    viii.

to modify or amend each Award to the extent any modification or amendment is consistent with the terms of the Plan, and does not materially impair the rights of any Participant unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company;

    
    ix.

to allow Participants to satisfy withholding tax obligations in such manner as prescribed in Section 14;

    
    x.

to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award previously granted by the Administrator;

    
    xi.

to delay issuance of Shares or suspend Participant's right to exercise an Award as deemed necessary to comply with Applicable Laws;

    
    xii

to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, to delegate, as it may deem appropriate, to one or more executive officers of the Company the authority to grant Awards to Service Providers who are not Officers and Directors, and exercise such other powers under the Plan as the Administrator may determine, in accordance with such guidelines as the Administrator shall set forth at any time or from time to time; and

    
    xiii.

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


c.

Effect of Administrator's Decision. The Administrator's decisions, determinations and interpretations will be final and binding on all Participants and any other holders of Awards. Any decision or action taken or to be taken by the Administrator, arising out of or in connection with the construction, administration, interpretation and effect of the Plan and of its rules and regulations, shall, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Laws, be within its absolute discretion (except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan) and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company, all Participants and any person claiming under or through any Participant.

   
5.

Authorization of Grants

   
a.

Eligibility. NSOs, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, SARs, Performance Units and Performance Shares may be granted to Service Providers either alone or in combination with any other Awards. ISOs may be granted as specified in Section 15(a) to employees of the Company, and of any Parent or Subsidiary.

   
b.

General Terms of Awards. Each grant of an Award shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan (including but not limited to any specific terms and conditions applicable to that type of Award set out in the following Sections), and such other terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator may prescribe. Any additional terms of an Award shall be set forth in an agreement evidencing the Award by and between the Company and the Participant.




c.

Vesting Conditions. The Administrator may impose vesting schedules, limitations on transferability and forfeiture conditions on any Award granted under this Plan as the Administrator in its sole discretion may deem advisable or appropriate, on the basis of such conditions, including but not limited to, achievement of Company-wide, business unit, or individual goals (including, but not limited to, continued status as a Service Provider), or any other basis the Administrator may determine in its discretion and provide for in the applicable Award Agreement. The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the time at which any such restrictions will lapse or be removed. The Administrator may, in its discretion, also provide for such complete or partial exceptions to an employment or service restriction as it deems equitable.

   
d.

Effect of Termination of Employment, Etc. Except as otherwise provided in Section 13, unless the Administrator in its sole discretion shall at any time determine otherwise with respect to any Award, if the Participant's employment or other association with the Company and its Affiliates ends for any reason, including because of the Participant's employer ceasing to be an Affiliate, (a) any outstanding Option or SAR of the Participant shall cease to be exercisable in any respect not later than 90 days following that event and, for the period it remains exercisable following that event, shall be exercisable only to the extent exercisable at the date of that event, and (b) any other outstanding Award of the Participant shall be forfeited or otherwise subject to return to or repurchase by the Company on the terms specified in the applicable Award Agreement. Military or sick leave or other bona fide leave shall not be deemed a termination of employment or other association, provided that it does not exceed the longer of ninety (90) days or the period during which the absent Participant's reemployment rights, if any, are guaranteed by statute or by contract.

   
6.

Stock Options.

   
a.

Grant of Options. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Options to Service Providers in such amounts as the Administrator will determine in its sole discretion. The Administrator may grant NSOs, ISOs, or any combination of the two. ISOs shall be granted in accordance with Section 15(a) of the Plan.

   
b.

Option Award Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the type of Option granted, the Option price, the exercise date, the term of the Option, the number of Shares to which the Option pertains, vesting criteria and such other terms and conditions (which need not be identical among Participants) as the Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion. If the Award Agreement does not specify that the Option is to be treated as an ISO, the Option shall be deemed a NSO.

   
c.

Exercise Price. The per Share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option will be no less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date.

   
d.

Term of Options. The term of each Option will be stated in the Award Agreement. Unless terminated sooner in accordance with the remaining provisions of this Section 6, no Option shall be exercisable on or after the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date.




  e.

Time and Form of Payment.

     
  i.

Exercise Date. Each Award Agreement shall specify how and when Shares covered by an Option may be purchased. The Award Agreement may specify waiting periods, the dates on which Options become exercisable or "vested" and, subject to the termination provisions of the Option, exercise periods. The Administrator may accelerate the exercisability of any Option or portion thereof.

     
  ii.

Exercise of Option. Any Option granted hereunder will be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. An Option will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (1) notice of exercise (in such form as the Administrator shall specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (2) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised (together with all applicable withholding taxes). Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Agreement and the Plan (together with all applicable withholding taxes). Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the name of the Optionee or, if requested by the Optionee, in the name of the Optionee and his or her spouse or a Designated Beneficiary. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Shares subject to the Option, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 13.

     
  iii.

Payment. The Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. Such consideration may consist entirely of:

     
  (1)

cash;

     
  (2)

check;

     
  (3)

to the extent not prohibited by Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, a promissory note;

     
  (4)

other Shares, provided Shares have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option will be exercised;

     
  (5)

to the extent not prohibited by Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, in accordance with any broker-assisted cashless exercise procedures approved by the Company and as in effect from time to time;




      (6)

by asking the Company to withhold Shares from the total Shares to be delivered upon exercise equal to the number of Shares having a value equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares being acquired;

         
(7)

any combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or

         
(8)

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

         
f.

Forfeiture of Options. All unexercised Options shall be forfeited to the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Award Agreement and again will become available for grant under the Plan.

         
7.

Restricted Stock; Stock Grants.

         
a.

Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of Restricted Stock to Service Providers in such amounts as the Administrator will determine in its sole discretion.

         
b.

Restricted Stock Award Agreement. Each Award of Restricted Stock will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the Period of Restriction, the number of Shares granted, vesting criteria, transferability restrictions, and such other terms and conditions (which need not be identical among Participants) as the Administrator will determine in its sole discretion. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the Company (or its designee) as escrow agent will hold Shares of Restricted Stock until the restrictions on such Shares have lapsed. Any stock certificates issued in respect of an Award of Restricted Stock shall be registered in the name of the Participant and, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, deposited by the Participant, together with a stock power endorsed in blank, with the Company (or its designee).

         
c.

Terms and Conditions.

         
i.

Vesting Conditions. During the Period of Restriction, Shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to vesting or forfeiture (including a right in the Company to reacquire Shares of Restricted Stock at less than the then Fair Market Value per Share) arising on the basis of such conditions as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion. Any such risk of forfeiture may be waived or terminated, or the Period of Restriction shortened, at any time by the Administrator on such basis as it deems appropriate.

         
ii.

Voting Rights. During the Period of Restriction, Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares, unless the Administrator determines otherwise.

         
iii.

Dividends and Other Distributions. During the Period of Restriction, Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock will be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares, unless the Administrator determines otherwise. If any such dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid.




  iv.

Transferability. Except as provided in the Plan, Shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the end of the applicable Period of Restriction.

     
  d.

Removal of Restrictions. All restrictions imposed on Shares of Restricted Stock shall lapse and the Period of Restriction shall end upon the satisfaction of the vesting conditions imposed by the Administrator. Shares of Restricted Stock not previously forfeited will be released from escrow as soon as practicable after the last day of the Period of Restriction or at such other time as the Administrator may determine, but in no event later than the 15th day of the third month following the end of the year in which vesting occurred.


f.

Stock Grants. Stock Grants shall be awarded solely in recognition of significant contributions to the success of the Company or its Affiliates, in lieu of compensation otherwise already due and in such other limited circumstances as the Administrator deems appropriate. Stock Grants shall be made without forfeiture conditions of any kind.


8.

Restricted Stock Units.

   
a.

Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Restricted Stock Units to Service Providers in such amounts as the Administrator will determine in its sole discretion.

   
b.

Restricted Stock Units Award Agreement. Each Award of Restricted Stock Units will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the number of Restricted Stock Units granted, vesting criteria, form of payout, vesting criteria and such other terms and conditions (which need not be identical among Participants) as the Administrator will determine in its sole discretion.

   
c.

Vesting Conditions. During the Period of Restriction, Shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to vesting or forfeiture arising on the basis of such conditions as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion. Any such risk of forfeiture may be waived or terminated, or the Period of Restriction shortened, at any time by the Administrator on such basis as it deems appropriate.

   
d.

Time and Form of Payment. Upon satisfaction of the applicable vesting conditions, payment of vested Restricted Stock Units shall occur in the manner and at the time provided in the Award Agreement, but in no event later than the 15th day of the third month following the end of the year in which vesting occurred. Except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, Restricted Stock Units may be paid in cash (equal to the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying the vested Restricted Stock Units), Shares, or a combination thereof at the sole discretion of the Administrator. Restricted Stock Units that are fully paid in cash will not reduce the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan.



9.

Stock Appreciation Rights.

     
a.

Grant of SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant SARs to Service Providers in such amounts as the Administrator will determine in its sole discretion.

   
b.

Award Agreement. Each SAR grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the exercise price, the number of Shares underlying the SAR grant, the term of the SAR, the conditions of exercise, vesting criteria and such other terms and conditions (which need not be identical among Participants) as the Administrator will determine in its sole discretion.

   
c.

Exercise Price and Other Terms. The per Share exercise price for the exercise of an SAR will be no less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date. No SAR shall be exercisable on or after the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date.

   
d.

Time and Form of Payment of SAR Amount. Upon exercise of a SAR, a Participant will be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount no greater than: (i) the difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the exercise price; times (ii) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. An Award Agreement may provide for a SAR to be paid in cash, Shares of equivalent value, or a combination thereof.

   
10.

Performance Units and Performance Shares.

   
a.

Grant of Performance Units and Performance Shares. Performance Units or Performance Shares may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time, as will be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator will have complete discretion in determining the number of Performance Units and Performance Shares granted to each Participant.

   
b.

Award Agreement. Each Award of Performance Units and Shares will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the initial value, the Performance Period, the number of Performance Units or Performance Shares granted, and such other terms and conditions (which need not be identical among Participants) as the Administrator will determine in its sole discretion.

   
c.

Value of Performance Units and Performance Shares. Each Performance Unit will have an initial value that is established by the Administrator on or before the Grant Date. Each Performance Share will have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Grant Date.

   
d.

Vesting Conditions and Performance Period. The Administrator will set performance objectives or other vesting provisions (including, without limitation, continued status as a Service Provider) in its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number or value of Performance Units or Performance Shares that will be paid out to the Participant. The time period during which the performance objectives or other vesting provisions must be met will be called the "Performance Period." After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Units shall be entitled to receive payout on the number and value of Performance Units or Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding performance objectives have been achieved.




e.

Time and Form of Payment. After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Units or Performance Shares will be entitled to receive a payout of the number of vested Performance Units or Performance Shares by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding performance objectives or other vesting provisions have been achieved. Vested Performance Units or Performance Shares will be paid as soon as practicable after the expiration of the applicable Performance Period, but in no event later than the 15th day of the third month following the end of the year the applicable Performance Period expired. An Award Agreement may provide for the satisfaction of Performance Unit or Performance Share Awards in cash or Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the vested Performance Units or Performance Shares at the close of the applicable Performance Period) or in a combination thereof.

   
f.

Forfeiture of Performance Units and Performance Shares. All unvested Performance Units or Performance Shares will be forfeited to the Company on the date set forth in the Award Agreement, and again will become available for grant under the Plan.

   
11.

Leaves of Absence/Transfer Between Locations. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise or as required by Applicable Laws, vesting of Awards will be suspended during any unpaid leave of absence. An Employee will not cease to be an Employee in the case of (i) any approved leave of absence or (ii) transfers between locations of the Company or between the Company and any Affiliate.

   
12.

Transferability of Awards. Unless otherwise provided in this Plan or otherwise determined by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant. However, the Administrator may, at or after the grant of an Award other than an ISO, provide that such Award may be transferred by the recipient to a family member; provided, however, that any such transfer is without payment of any consideration whatsoever and that no transfer shall be valid unless first approved by the Administrator, acting in its sole discretion. For this purpose, "family member" means any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in- law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the employee's household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which the foregoing persons have more than fifty (50) percent of the beneficial interests, a foundation in which the foregoing persons (or the Participant) control the management of assets, and any other entity in which these persons (or the Participant) own more than fifty (50) percent of the voting interests. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, such Award will contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.

   
13.

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

   
a.

Adjustments. In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, shall appropriately adjust the number and kind of Shares that may be delivered under the Plan, the Share-based limitations under Section 15b, and/or the number, kind, and price of Shares covered by each outstanding Award.




  b.

Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator will notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

   
  c.

Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, any or all outstanding Awards may be assumed by the successor corporation on an equitable basis, which assumption shall be binding on all Participants. In the alternative, the successor corporation may substitute equivalent Awards (after taking into account the existing provisions of the Awards) on an equitable basis. The successor corporation may also issue, in place of outstanding Shares of the Company held by the Participant, substantially similar shares or other property subject to vesting requirements and repurchase restrictions no less favorable to the Participant than those in effect prior to the Change in Control.

   
 

In the event that the successor corporation does not assume or substitute for the Award, unless the Administrator provides otherwise, the Participant will fully vest in and have the right to exercise all of his or her outstanding Options and SARs, including Shares as to which such Awards would not otherwise be vested or exercisable, all restrictions on Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units will lapse, and, with respect to Performance Shares and Performance Units, all Performance Goals or other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved at target levels and all other terms and conditions met. In addition, if an Option or SAR is not assumed or substituted in the event of a Change in Control, the Administrator will notify the Participant in writing or electronically that the Option or SAR will be exercisable for a period of time determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, and the Option or SAR will terminate upon the expiration of such period.

   
 

For the purposes of this Section 13(c), an Award will be considered assumed if, following the Change in Control, the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) or, in the case of a SAR upon the exercise of which the Administrator determines to pay cash or a Performance Share or Performance Unit which the Administrator can determine to pay in cash, the fair market value of the consideration received in the Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of an Option or SAR or upon the payout of a Restricted Stock Unit, Performance Share or Performance Unit, for each Share subject to such Award (or in the case of Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units, the number of implied shares determined by dividing the value of the Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units, as applicable, by the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Change in Control), to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Change in Control.




Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13(c) to the contrary, (A) an Award that vests, is earned or paid-out upon the satisfaction of one or more performance goals will not be considered assumed upon a Change in Control if the Company or its successor modifies any of such performance goals without the Participant's consent; provided, however, a modification to such performance goals only to reflect the successor corporation's post- Change in Control corporate structure will not be deemed to invalidate an otherwise valid Award assumption and (B) in the event of an involuntary termination of services of a Service Provider for any reason other than death, disability or cause within six (6) months following the consummation of a Change in Control, any of his or her Awards assumed or substituted in the Change in Control which are subject to vesting conditions and/or a right of repurchase in favor of the Company or a successor entity, shall accelerate in full. All such Accelerated Awards shall be exercisable for a period of one (1) year following termination, but in no event after expiration date of such Award.

    
14.

Tax Withholding.

    
a.

Withholding Requirements. Prior to the delivery of any Shares or cash pursuant to an Award (or exercise thereof), the Company will have the power and the right to deduct or withhold or cause to be deducted or withheld, or require a Participant to remit to the Company or its Affiliates, an amount sufficient to satisfy national, federal, state, provincial, local, foreign or other taxes required by Applicable Laws to be withheld with respect to such Award (or exercise thereof).

    
b.

Withholding Arrangements. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit a Participant to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, in whole or in part by (without limitation) (i) paying cash, (ii) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld, or (iii) delivering to the Company already-owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The amount of the withholding requirement will be deemed to include any amount which the Administrator agrees may be withheld at the time the election is made. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered will be determined as of the date that the taxes are required to be withheld.

    
15.

Provisions Applicable In the Event the Company or the Service Provider is Subject to U.S. Taxation.

    
a.

Grant of Incentive Stock Options. If the Administrator grants Options to Employees subject to U.S. taxation, the Administrator may grant such Employee an ISO and the following terms shall also apply:

    
i.

Maximum Amount. Subject to the provisions of Section 13, to the extent consistent with Section 422 of the Code, not more than an aggregate of four million (4,000,000) Shares may be issued as ISOs under the Plan.

    
ii.

General Rule. Only employees of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary shall be eligible for the grant of ISOs.

    
iii.

Continuous Employment. Unless otherwise provided under the Code, the ISO will cease to be treated as an ISO unless the Optionee remains in the continuous employ of the Company or its Parent or Subsidiaries from the date the ISO is granted until not more than three months before the date on which it is exercised (or such longer periods as may be permitted in the event termination is due to death or Disability). A leave of absence approved by the Company may exceed ninety (90) days if reemployment upon expiration of such leave is guaranteed by statute or contract. If reemployment upon expiration of a leave of absence approved by the Company is not so guaranteed, then three (3) months following the ninety-first (91st) day of such leave any ISO held by the Optionee will cease to be treated as an ISO.




    iv.

Award Agreement.

     
    (1)

The Administrator shall designate Options granted as ISOs in the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), Options will not qualify as an ISO. For purposes of this section, ISOs will be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.

     
    (2)

The Award Agreement shall specify the term of the ISO. The term shall not exceed ten (10) years from the Grant Date or five (5) years from the Grant Date for Ten Percent Owners.

     
    (3)

The Award Agreement shall specify an exercise price of not less than the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date or one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date for Ten Percent Owners.

     
    (4)

The Award Agreement shall specify that an ISO is not transferable except by will, beneficiary designation or the laws of descent and distribution.

       
    v.

Form of Payment. The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an ISO, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator at the time of grant in accordance with Section 6(e)(iii).

     
    vi.

"Disability," for purposes of an ISO, means total and permanent disability as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code.

     
    vii.

Notice. In the event of any disposition of the Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO within two years from the Grant Date or one year from the exercise date, the Optionee will notify the Company thereof in writing within thirty (30) days after such disposition. In addition, the Optionee shall provide the Company with such information as the Company shall reasonably request in connection with determining the amount and character of Optionee's income, the Company's deduction, and the Company's obligation to withhold taxes or other amounts incurred by reason of a disqualifying disposition, including the amount thereof.




  b.

Performance-based Compensation. If the Company grants an Award as "performance- based compensation" for which it claims deductions that are subject to the Code Section 162(m) limitation on its U.S. tax returns, then the following terms shall control over any contrary provision contained in the Plan and be applied in a manner consistent with the requirements of, and only to the extent required for compliance with, the exclusion from the limitation on deductibility of compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code:

     
  i.

Outside Directors. All grants of Awards intended to qualify as Qualified Performance-Based Awards and determination of terms applicable thereto shall be made by the Administrator or, if not all of the members thereof qualify as "outside directors" within the meaning of applicable regulations under Section 162 of the Code, a subcommittee of the Administrator consisting of such of the members of the Administrator as do so qualify. Any action by such a subcommittee shall be considered the action of the Administrator for purposes of the Plan.

     
  ii.

Applicability. This Section 15b will apply only to those Covered Employees, or to those persons who the Administrator determines are reasonably likely to become Covered Employees in the period covered by an Award, selected by the Administrator to receive Qualified Performance-Based Awards. The Administrator may, in its discretion, grant Awards not intended to qualify as Qualified Performance-Based Awards to Covered Employees that do not satisfy the requirements of this Section 15b.

     
  iii.

Maximum Amount. Subject to the provisions of Section 13, the maximum number of Shares that can be subject to Awards granted to any individual Participant in the aggregate in any one fiscal year of the Company is three million (3,000,000) Shares. For purposes of this limitation:

     
   (1) For Awards denominated in Shares and satisfied in cash, the maximum Award to any individual Participant in the aggregate in any one fiscal year of the Company is the Fair Market Value of three million (3,000,000) Shares on the Grant Date; and
 

 

    (2) The maximum amount payable pursuant to any cash Awards to any individual Participant in the aggregate in any one fiscal year of the Company is the Fair Market Value of three million (3,000,000) Shares on the Grant Date.

16.

Grants to Foreign Nationals. Awards may be granted to Service Providers who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States, or both, on such terms and conditions different from those applicable to grants to Services Providers in the United States as in the judgment of the Administrator may be necessary or desirable in order to recognize differences in local law or tax policy, and such Awards shall be considered granted pursuant to a non-U.S. sub-plan. The Administrator also may impose conditions on the exercise or vesting of Awards in order to minimize the company's obligation with respect to tax equalization for employees on assignments outside their home country.




17.

No Effect on Employment or Service. Neither the Plan nor any Award will confer upon any Participant any right with respect to continuing the Participant's relationship as a Service Provider with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, nor will they interfere in any way with the Participant's right or the Company's or its Affiliates' right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

   
18.

Effective Date. The Plan's effective date is the date on which it is adopted by the Board, so long as it is approved by the Company's stockholders at any time within twelve (12) months of such adoption. Upon approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company, all Awards issued pursuant to the Plan on or after the Effective Date shall be fully effective as if the stockholders of the Company had approved the Plan on the Effective Date. If the stockholders fail to approve the Plan within one year after the Effective Date, any Awards made hereunder shall be null and void and of no effect.

   
19.

Term of Plan. The Plan will terminate 10 years following the earlier of (i) the date it was adopted by the Board or (ii) the date it became effective upon approval by stockholders of the Company, unless sooner terminated by the Board pursuant to Section 19.

   
20.

Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

   
a.

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

   
b.

Stockholder Approval. The Company will obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws.

   
c.

Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan will impair the rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company. Termination of the Plan will not affect the Administrator's ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination.

   
21.

Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

   
a.

Legal Compliance. The Administrator may delay or suspend the issuance and delivery of Shares, suspend the exercise of Options or SARs, or suspend the Plan as necessary to comply with Applicable Laws. Shares will not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares will comply with Applicable Laws and will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

   
b.

Corporate Restrictions on Rights in Shares. Any Shares to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to all restrictions upon the transfer thereof which may be now or hereafter imposed by the charter, certificate or articles, and by-laws, of the Company. In addition, either at the time an Award is granted or by subsequent action, the Administrator may, but need not, impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales or other subsequent transfers by a Participant, or a holder of Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan, of any Share issued under an Award, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by the Participant(s), and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.




c.

Registration. If the Company shall deem it necessary or desirable to register under the Securities Act or other Applicable Law any Shares issued or to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan, or to qualify any such Shares for exemption from the Securities Act or other Applicable Law, then the Company may, but shall not be required to, take such action at its own expense. The Company may require from each Participant, or each holder of Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan, such information in writing for use in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus or offering circular as is reasonably necessary for that purpose and may require reasonable indemnity to the Company and its officers and directors from that holder against all losses, claims, damage and liabilities arising from use of the information so furnished and caused by any untrue statement of any material fact therein or caused by the omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made. In addition, the Company may require any such person to agree to lock-up terms as the Company may deem advisable or appropriate.

   
d.

Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Shares to be issued pursuant to such Award shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act, or the Participant exercising such Award shall have made such written representations and warranties to the Company (upon which the Company believes it may reasonably rely) as the Administrator may deem necessary or appropriate for the purposes of confirming that the issuance of the Shares pursuant to such Award will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws and otherwise in compliance with all Applicable Laws, including but not limited to that the Participant is acquiring the Shares only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares.

   
e.

Placement of Legends; Stop Orders; etc. Each Share to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan may bear a reference to the investment representation made in accordance with Section 20d in addition to any other applicable restriction under the Plan, the terms of the Award and to the fact that no registration statement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in respect to such Shares. All certificates for Shares or other securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stock transfer orders and other restrictions as the Administrator may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares is then listed, and any Applicable Law, and the Administrator may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

   
22.

Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company's counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, will relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority will not have been obtained.




23.

Repricing Prohibited; Exchange And Buyout of Awards. The repricing or termination and subsequent repricing of Options or SARs at a lower purchase price per Share than the original grant is prohibited without prior stockholder approval. The Administrator may authorize the Company, with prior stockholder approval and the consent of the respective Participants, to issue new Option or SAR Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any or all outstanding Awards. The Administrator may at any time repurchase Options with payment in cash, Shares or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator and the Participant shall agree.

  
24.

Substitution and Assumption of Awards. The Administrator may make Awards under the Plan by assumption, substitution or replacement of performance shares, phantom shares, stock awards, stock options, stock appreciation rights or similar awards granted by another entity (including an Affiliate), if such assumption, substitution or replacement is in connection with an asset acquisition, stock acquisition, merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving the Company (and/or its Affiliate) and such other entity (and/or its affiliate). The Administrator may also make Awards under the Plan by assumption, substitution or replacement of a similar type of award granted by the Company prior to the adoption and approval of the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan (other than the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan), the terms of such assumed, substituted or replaced Awards shall be as the Administrator, in its discretion, determines is appropriate.

  
25.

Governing Law. The Plan and all Agreements shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.

INDEMNIFICATION

SECTION 10.01. Third Party Actions. The corporation shall indemnify any director or officer of the corporation, and may indemnify any other person, who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

SECTION 10.02. Actions by or in the Right of the Corporation. The corporation shall indemnify any director or officer and may indemnify any other person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

SECTION 10.03. Mandatory Indemnification. To the extent that a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in Sections 10.01 and 10.02, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

SECTION 10.04. Determination of Conduct. Any indemnification under Section 10.01 or 10.02 of this Article X (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 10.01 or 10.02 of this Article X. Such determination shall be made (a) by a majority vote of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (b) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (c) by the stockholders.

SECTION 10.05. Payment of Expenses in Advance. Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding shall be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer, employee, or agent to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this Article X.

SECTION 10.06. Indemnity Not Exclusive. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided or granted hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Certificate of Incorporation, any other bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders, or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

SECTION 10.07. Definitions. For purposes of this Article X:

(a) "the corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger that, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this Article X with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued;
