The term of each option is determined by our board of directors or by a designated committee of the board. The term of any option may not exceed ten years from the date of grant.

We have a 2005 Stock-Based Award and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2005 Plan”), under which we may offer restricted and unrestricted shares of our common stock and grant options to purchase shares of our common stock to selected employees and non-employee directors. The purpose of the 2005 Plan is to promote our long-term financial success by attracting, retaining and rewarding eligible participants.

The 2005 Plan provides that upon termination of employment with us, unless determined otherwise by the compensation committee at the time options are granted, the exercise period for vested awards will generally be limited, provided that vested awards will be canceled immediately upon a termination for cause or voluntary termination. The 2005 Plan provides for the cancellation of all unvested awards upon termination of employment with us, unless determined otherwise by the compensation committee at the time awards are granted.
