14. STOCK OPTION AND PURCHASE PLANS

On March 29, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors terminated the Company’s 2001 Stock Option Plan, or the 2001 Plan. In addition, the Board of Directors adopted and approved a new 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2010 Plan, with 32,000 shares remaining reserved and unissued under the 2001 Plan. In addition, the Board of Directors adopted and approved a new 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2010 Plan, subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders. The 2001 Plan, however, will continue to govern awards previously granted under it. On June 25, 2010, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2010 Plan at the Company’s 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The 2010 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units to employees, directors and consultants, to be granted from time to time as determined by the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, or its designees. The 2010 Plan’s share reserve which the stockholders approved is 8,400,000 shares, plus any shares reserved but not issued pursuant to awards under the 2001 Plan as of the date of stockholder approval, plus any shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2001 Plan that expire or otherwise terminate without having been exercised in full, or are forfeited to or repurchased by the Company, up to a maximum of 8,111,273 shares (which is the number of shares subject to outstanding options under the 2001 Plan as of March 11, 2010).

On April 30, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, or the Inducement Grant, to Michael P. Miller, the Company’s new Senior Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer. The Inducement Grant was granted outside of the Company’s 2010 Plan and without stockholder approval pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c)(4) and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Stand-Alone Stock Option Agreement between the Company and Michael P. Miller.

As of September 30, 2011, there were 8,658,478 shares subject to all options outstanding under all stock plans and 7,371,156 shares reserved for issuance under the 2010 Plan. Additionally, the average weighted exercise price of all outstanding options under all stock plans was $6.15 per share and the average weighted remaining term was 6.52 years.

On June 17, 2011, the Company’s stockholders approved amendments to the Company’s 1994 ESPP to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 1994 ESPP by 600,000 shares to a new total of 2,000,000, to remove the Plan’s 20-year term, and to include certain changes consistent with Treasury Regulations relating to employee stock purchase plans under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and other applicable law.

As of September 30, 2011, 1,351,550 shares have been issued to employees and there are 648,450 shares available for issuance under the 1994 ESPP.
