ANN ARBOR STROMAL, INC.
1989 STOCK OPTION PLAN
Adopted August 15, 1989
1. PURPOSE.
(a) The purpose of the Plan is to provide a means which selected key employees and directors (if declared eligible under paragraph 4) of and consultants to Ann Arbor Stromal, Inc., a Michigan corporation (the "Company"), and its Affiliates, as defined in subparagraph 1 (b), may be given an opportunity to purchase stock of the Company.
(b) The word "Affiliate" as used in the Plan means any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined in Sections 425 (e) and (f), respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time (the "Code").
(c) The Company, by means of the Plan, seeks to retain the services of persons now employed by or serving as consultants or directors to the Company, to secure and retain the services of new employees/persons capable of filling such positions, and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company.
(d) The Company intends that the options issued under the Plan shall, in the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") or any committee to which responsibility for administration of the Plan has been delegated pursuant to subparagraph 2 (c), be either incentive stock options as that term is used in Section 422A of the Code ("Incentive Stock Options"), or options which do not qualify as incentive stock options ("Supplemental Stock Options"). All options shall be separately designated Incentive Stock Options or Supplemental Stock Options at the time of grant, and in such form as issued pursuant to paragraph 5, and a separate certificate or certificates shall be issued for shares purchased on exercise of each type of option. An option designated as a Supplemental Stock Option shall not be treated as an incentive stock option.
2. ADMINISTRATION.
(a) The Plan shall be administered by the Board unless and until the Board delegates administration to a committee, as provided in subparagraph 2 (c). Whether or not the Board has delegated administration, the Board shall have the final power to determine all questions of policy and expediency that may arise in the administration of the Plan.
(b) The Board shall have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:
(1) To determine from time to time which of the persons eligible under the Plan shall be granted options; when and how the option shall be granted; whether the option will be an Incentive Stock Option or a Supplemental Stock Option; the provisions of each option granted (which need not be identical), including the time or times during the term of each option within which all or portions of such option may be exercised; and the number of shares for which an option shall be granted to each such person.
(2) To construe and interpret the Plan and options granted under it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan or in any option agreement, in a manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective.
(3) To amend the Plan as provided in paragraph 10.
(4) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as the Board deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the Company.
(c) The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a committee composed of not fewer than three (3) members (the "Committee"), all of the members of which Committee shall be disinterested persons, if required and as defined by the provisions of subparagraph 2 (d). If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board, subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. The Board may abolish the Committee at any time and revest in the Board the administration of the Plan. Additionally, prior to the date of the first registration of an equity security of the Company under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Board may delegate administration of the Plan to any person or persons and the term "Committee" shall apply to any person or persons to whom such authority has been delegated.
(d) The term "disinterested person," as used in this Plan, shall mean an administrator of the Plan, whether a member of the Board or of any Committee to which responsibility for administration of the Plan has been delegated pursuant to subparagraph 2 (c): (i) who is not at the time he or she exercises discretion in administering the Plan eligible and has not at any time within one year prior thereto been eligible for selection as a person to whom stock may be allocated or to whom stock options or stock appreciation rights maybe granted pursuant to the Plan or any other plan of the Company or any of its affiliates entitling the participants therein to acquire stock, stock options or stock appreciation rights of the Company or any of its affiliates; or (ii) who is otherwise considered to be a "disinterested person" in accordance with the rules, regulations or interpretations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any such person shall otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 16 b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
(e) Any requirement that an administrator of the Plan be a "disinterested person" shall not apply (i) prior to the date of the first registration of an equity security of the Company under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, or (ii) if the Board or the Committee expressly declares that such requirement shall not apply.
3. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.
(a) Subject to the provisions of paragraph 9 relating to adjustments upon changes in stock, the stock that may be sold pursuant to options granted under the Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate one million three hundred sixty-three thousand six hundred thirty-six (1,363,636) shares of the Company's common stock. If any option granted under the Plan shall for any reason expire or otherwise terminate without having been exercised in full, the stock not purchased under such option shall again become available for the Plan.
