1. PURPOSE.
The purpose of this
plan (the "Plan")
is to secure for YALE
PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.
(the "Corporation")
and its shareholders
the benefits arising
from capital stock ownership
by employees, officers
and directors of, and
consultants or advisors
to, the Corporation
and its Parent and subsidiary
corporations who are
expected to contribute
to the Corporation's
future growth and success.
Except where the context
otherwise requires,
the term "Corporation"
shall include the parent
and all present and
future subsidiaries
of the Corporation as
defined in Sections
424(e) and 424(f) of
the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended
or replaced from time
to time (the "Code").
Those provisions of
the Plan which make
express reference to
Section 422 shall apply
only to Incentive Stock
Options (as that term
is defined in the Plan).
2. TYPE OF
OPTIONS AND ADMINISTRATION.
(a) TYPES OF OPTIONS.
Options granted pursuant
to the Plan shall be
authorized by action
of the Board of Directors
of the Corporation (or
a Committee designated
by the Board of Directors)
and may be either incentive
stock options ("Incentive
Stock Options")
meeting the requirements
of Section 422 of the
Code or non-statutory
options which are not
intended to meet the
requirements of Section
422 of the Code.
(b) ADMINISTRATION.
The Plan will be administered
by the Board of Directors
of the Corporation,
whose construction and
interpretation of the
terms and provisions
of the Plan shall be
final and conclusive.
The Board of Directors
may in its sole discretion
grant options to purchase
shares of the Corporation's
$0.001 common stock
("Common Stock")
and issue shares upon
exercise of such options
as provided in the Plan.
The Board shall have
authority, subject to
the express provisions
of the Plan, to construe
the respective option
agreements and the Plan,
to prescribe, amend
and rescind rules and
regulations relating
to the Plan, to determine
the terms and provisions
of the respective option
agreements, which need
not be identical, and
to make all other determinations
in the judgment of the
Board of Directors necessary
or desirable for the
administration of the
Plan. The Board of Directors
may correct any defect
or supply any omission
or reconcile any inconsistency
in the Plan or in any
option agreement in
the manner and to the
extent it shall deem
expedient to carry the
Plan into effect and
it shall be the sole
and final judge of such
expediency. No director
or person acting pursuant
to authority delegated
by the Board of Directors
shall be liable for
any action or determination
under the Plan made
in good faith. To the
extent permitted by
applicable law, the
Board of Directors may
delegate any or all
of its powers under
the Plan to one or more
committees or subcommittees
of the Board of Directors
(a "Committee").
If and when the Common
Stock is registered
under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934
(the "Exchange
Act") the Board
of Directors shall appoint
one such Committee of
not less than two members,
each member of which
shall be an "outside
director" within
the meaning of Section
162(m) of the Code and
a "non-employee
director" as defined
in Rule 16b-3 promulgated
under the Exchange Act).
All references in the
Plan to the Board of
Directors shall mean
the Board of Directors
or a Committee of the
Board of Directors to
the extent that the
Board's powers or authority
under the Plan have
been delegated to such
Committee.
3. ELIGIBILITY.
Options may be granted
to persons who are,
at the time of grant,
employees, officers
or directors of, or
consultants or advisors
to, the Corporation,
its parent, or any subsidiary;
PROVIDED, that the class
of employees to whom
Incentive Stock Options
may be granted shall
be limited to all employees
of the Corporation,
its parent, or any subsidiary.
A person who has been
granted an option may,
if he or she is otherwise
eligible, be granted
additional options if
the Board of Directors
shall so determine.
4. STOCK SUBJECT
TO PLAN.
Subject to adjustment
as provided in Section
15 below, the maximum
number of shares of
Common Stock of the
Corporation which may
be issued and sold under
the Plan is Ten Thousand
(10,000) shares. If
an option granted under
the Plan shall expire
or terminate for any
reason without having
been exercised in full,
the unpurchased shares
subject to such option
shall again be available
for subsequent option
grants under the Plan.
If shares issued upon
exercise of an option
under the Plan are tendered
to the Corporation in
payment of the exercise
price of an option granted
under the Plan, such
tendered shares shall
again be available for
subsequent option grants
under the Plan; provided,
that in no event shall
such shares be made
available pursuant to
exercise of Incentive
Stock Options.
5. FORMS OF
OPTION AGREEMENTS.
As a condition to
the grant of an option
under the Plan, each
recipient of an option
shall execute an option
agreement in such form
not inconsistent with
the Plan as may be approved
by the Board of Directors.
Such option agreements
may differ among recipients.
6. PURCHASE
PRICE.
(a) GENERAL. The purchase
price per share of stock
deliverable upon the
exercise of an option
shall be determined
by the Board of Directors,
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
in the case of an Incentive
Stock Option, the exercise
price shall not be less
than 100% of the fair
market value of such
stock, as determined
by the Board of Directors,
at the time of grant
of such option, or less
than 110% of such fair
market value in the
case of options described
in Section 11(b).
(b) PAYMENT OF PURCHASE
PRICE. Options granted
under the Plan may provide
for the payment of the
exercise price by delivery
of cash or a check to
the order of the Corporation
in an amount equal to
the exercise price of
such options, or, to
the extent provided
in the applicable option
agreement, (i) by delivery
to the Corporation of
shares of Common Stock
of the Corporation already
owned by the optionee
having a fair market
value equal in amount
to the exercise price
of the options being
exercised, (ii) by any
other means (including,
without limitation,
by delivery of a promissory
note of the optionee
payable on such terms
as are specified by
the Board of Directors)
which the Board of Directors
determines are consistent
with the purpose of
the Plan and with applicable
laws and regulations
(including, without
limitation, the provisions
of Rule 16b-3 and Regulation
T promulgated by the
Federal Reserve Board)
or (iii) by any combination
of such methods of payment.
The fair market value
of any shares of the
Corporation's Common
Stock or other non-cash
consideration which
may be
delivered upon exercise
of an option shall be
determined by the Board
of Directors.
7. OPTION
PERIOD.
Each option and all
rights thereunder shall
expire on such date
as shall be set forth
in the applicable option
agreement, except that,
in the case of an Incentive
Stock Option, such date
shall not be later than
ten years after the
date on which the option
is granted and, in all
cases, options shall
be subject to earlier
termination as provided
in the Plan.
8. EXERCISE
OF OPTIONS.
Each option granted
under the Plan shall
be exercisable either
in full or in installments
at such time or times
and during such period
as shall be set forth
in the agreement evidencing
such option, subject
to the provisions of
the Plan.
9. NONTRANSFERABILITY
OF OPTIONS.
Except as the Board
of Directors may otherwise
determine or provide
in an option, options
shall not be assignable
or transferable by the
person to whom they
are granted, either
voluntarily or by operation
of law, except by will
or
the laws of descent
and distribution, and,
during the life of the
optionee, shall be exercisable
only by the optionee;
provided, however, that
non-statutory options
may be transferred pursuant
to a qualified domestic
relations order (as
defined in Code Section
414(p)).
10. EFFECT
OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
OR OTHER RELATIONSHIP.
Subject to the provisions
of the Plan, the Board
of Directors shall determine
the period of time during
which an optionee may
exercise an option following
(i) the termination
of the optionee's employment
or other relationship
with the Corporation,
its parent, or any subsidiary,
or (ii) the death or
disability of the optionee.
Such periods shall be
set forth in the agreement
evidencing such option.
Employment shall not
be deemed to be terminated
because an optionee
is transferred from
one of the Corporation,
its parent, or any subsidiary
to another one of the
Corporation, its parent,
or any subsidiary.
11. INCENTIVE
STOCK OPTIONS.
Options granted under
the Plan which are intended
to be Incentive Stock
Options shall be subject
to the following additional
terms and conditions:
(a) EXPRESS DESIGNATION.
All Incentive Stock
Options granted under
the Plan shall, at the
time of grant, be specifically
designated as such in
the option agreement
covering such Incentive
Stock Options.
(b) 10% SHAREHOLDER.
If any employee to whom
an Incentive Stock Option
is to be granted under
the Plan is, at the
time of the grant of
such option, the owner
of stock possessing
more than 10% of the
total combined voting
power of
all classes of stock
of the Corporation (after
taking into account
the attribution of stock
ownership rules of Section
424(d) of the Code),
then the following special
provisions shall be
applicable to the Incentive
Stock Option granted
to such individual:
(i) the purchase price
per share of the Common
Stock subject to such
Incentive Stock Option
shall not be less than
110% of the fair market
value of one share of
Common Stock at the
time of grant; and
(ii) the option exercise
period shall not exceed
five years from the
date of grant.
(c) DOLLAR LIMITATION.
For so long as the Code
shall so provide, options
granted to any employee
under the Plan (and
any other incentive
stock option plans of
the Corporation) which
are intended to constitute
Incentive Stock Options
shall not constitute
Incentive Stock Options
to the extent that such
options, in the aggregate,
become exercisable for
the first time in any
one calendar year for
shares of Common Stock
with an aggregate fair
market value (determined
as of the respective
date or dates of grant)
of more than $100,000.
(d) TERMINATION OF
EMPLOYMENT, DEATH OR
DISABILITY. No Incentive
Stock Option may be
exercised unless, at
the time of such exercise,
the optionee is, and
has been continuously
since the date of grant
of his or her option,
employed
by the Corporation,
its parent, or any subsidiary,
except that:
(i) an Incentive Stock
Option may be exercised
within the period of
three months after the
date the optionee ceases
to be an employee of
the Corporation, its
parent, or any subsidiary
(or within such lesser
period as may be specified
in the applicable option
agreement); PROVIDED,
that the agreement with
respect to such option
may designate a longer
exercise
period and that he exercise
after such three-month
period shall be treated
as the exercise of a
non-statutory option
under the Plan;
(ii) if the optionee
dies while in the employ
of the Corporation,
its parent, or any subsidiary,
or within three months
after the optionee ceases
to be such an employee,
the Incentive Stock
Option may be exercised
by the person to whom
it is transferred by
will or the laws of
descent and distribution
within the period of
one year after the date
of death (or within
such lesser period as
may be specified in
the applicable option
agreement); and
(iii) if the optionee
becomes disabled (within
the meaning of Section
22(e)(3) of the Code
or any successor provision
thereto) while in the
employ of the Corporation,
its parent, or any subsidiary,
the Incentive Stock
Option may be exercised
within theperiod of
one year after the date
the optionee ceases
to be such an employee
because of such disability
(or within such lesser
period as may be specified
in the applicable option
agreement).
For all purposes of
the Plan and any option
granted hereunder, "employment"
shall be defined in
accordance with the
provisions of Section
1.421-7(h) of the Income
Tax Regulations (or
any successor regulations)
and shall include employment
by the Corporation,
its parent, or any subsidiary.
Employment shall not
be deemed to be terminated
because an optionee
is transferred from
one of the Corporation,
its parent, or any subsidiary
to another one of the
Corporation, its parent,
or any subsidiary. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions,
no Incentive Stock Option
may be exercised after
its expiration date.
12. ADDITIONAL
PROVISIONS.
(a) ADDITIONAL OPTION
PROVISIONS. The Board
of Directors may, in
its sole discretion,
include additional provisions
in option agreements
covering options granted
under the Plan, including
without limitation restrictions
on transfer, repurchase
rights, commitments
to pay cash bonuses,
to make, arrange for
or guaranty loans or
to transfer other property
to optionees upon exercise
of options, or such
other provisions as
shall be determined
by the Board of Directors;
PROVIDED that such additional
provisions shall not
be inconsistent with
any other term or condition
of the Plan and such
additional provisions
shall not cause any
Incentive Stock Option
granted under the Plan
to fail to qualify as
an Incentive Stock Option
within the meaning of
Section 422 of the Code.
(b) ACCELERATION,
EXTENSION, ETC. The
Board of Directors may,
in its sole discretion,
(i) accelerate the date
or dates on which all
or any particular option
or options granted under
the Plan may be exercised
or (ii) extend the dates
during which all, or
any particular, option
or options granted under
the Plan may be exercised;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
no such extension shall
be permitted if it would
cause the Plan to fail
to comply with Section
422 of the Code.
13. GENERAL
RESTRICTIONS.
(a) INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS.
The Corporation may
require any person to
whom an option is granted,
as a condition of exercising
such option, to give
written assurances in
substance and form satisfactory
to the Corporation to
the
effect that such person
is acquiring the Common
Stock subject to the
option for his or her
own account for investment
and not with any present
intention of selling
or otherwise distributing
the same, and to such
other effects as the
Corporation deems necessary
or appropriate in order
to comply with federal
and applicable state
securities laws, or
with covenants or representations
made by the Corporation
in connection with any
public offering of its
Common Stock.
(b) COMPLIANCE WITH
SECURITIES LAWS. Each
option shall be subject
to the requirement that
if, at any time, counsel
to the Corporation shall
determine that the listing,
registration or qualification
of the shares subject
to such option upon
any securities exchange
or under any state or
federal law, or the
consent or approval
of any governmental
or regulatory body,
or that the disclosure
of non-public information
or the satisfaction
of any other condition
is necessary as a condition
of, or in connection
with, the issuance or
purchase of shares thereunder,
such option may not
be exercised, in whole
or in part, unless such
listing, registration,
qualification, consent
or approval, or satisfaction
of such condition shall
have been effected or
obtained on conditions
acceptable to the Board
of Directors. Nothing
herein shall be deemed
to require the Corporation
to apply for or to obtain
such listing, registration
or qualification, or
to satisfy such condition.
14. RIGHTS
AS A SHAREHOLDER.
The holder of an option
shall have no rights
as a shareholder with
respect to any shares
covered by the option
(including, without
limitation, any rights
to receive dividends
or non-cash distributions
with respect to such
shares) until the date
of issue of a stock
certificate to him or
her for such shares.
No adjustment shall
be made for dividends
or other rights for
which the record date
is prior to the date
such stock certificate
is issued.
15. ADJUSTMENT
PROVISIONS FOR RECAPITALIZATIONS
AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
(a) GENERAL. If, through
or as a result of any
merger, consolidation,
sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of
the Corporation, reorganization,
recapitalization, reclassification,
stock dividend, stock
split, reverse stock
split or other similar
transaction,
(i) the outstanding
shares of Common Stock
are increased, decreased
or exchanged for a different
number or kind of shares
or other securities
of the Corporation,
or
(ii) additional shares
or new or different
shares or other securities
of the Corporation or
other non-cash assets
are distributed with
respect to such shares
of Common Stock or other
securities, an appropriate
and proportionate adjustment
shall be made in (x)
the maximum number and
kind of shares reserved
for issuance under the
Plan, (y) the number
and kind of shares or
other securities subject
to any then outstanding
options under the Plan,
and (z) the price for
each share subject to
any then outstanding
options under the Plan,
without changing the
aggregate purchase price
as to which such options
remain exercisable.
Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no adjustment
shall be made pursuant
to this Section 15 if
such adjustment would
cause the Plan to fail
to comply with Section
422 of the Code. If
this Section 15 applies
and Section 16 also
applies to any event,
then Section 16 shall
be applicable to such
event and this Section
15 shall not be applicable.
(b) BOARD AUTHORITY
TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS.
Any adjustments under
this Section 15 will
be made by the Board
of Directors, whose
determination as to
what adjustments, if
any, will be made and
the extent thereof will
be final, binding and
conclusive. No fractional
shares will be issued
under the Plan on account
of any such adjustments.

CONSOLIDATION, ASSET
SALE, LIQUIDATION, ETC.

Directors shall take
any one or
more of the following

Options specified in
all issued, outstanding
and then currently binding
Stock Option Agreements):
(i) provide that such
Outstanding Options
shall be assumed, or
equivalent options shall
be substituted, by the
acquiring or succeeding

thereof), PROVIDED that
any such options substituted
for Outstanding Incentive

meet the requirements
of Section 424(a) of
the Code;
(ii) upon written
notice to the optionees,
provide that all then
unexercised Outstanding
Options will become
exercisable in full
as of a specified time
(the "Acceleration
Time") prior to
the Acquisition Event
and will terminate immediately
prior to the consummation
of such Acquisition
Event, except to the
extent exercised by
the optionees between
the Acceleration Time
and the consummation
of such Acquisition
Event;
(iii) in the event
of a merger under the
terms of which holders
of the Common Stock
of the Corporation will
receive upon consummation
thereof a cash or stock
payment for each share
surrendered in the merger
(the "Merger Price"),
make or provide for
a cash or stock payment
to each optionee equal
to (A) the Merger Price
times the number of
shares of Common Stock
issuable to that Optionee
upon the exercise by
that Optionee of such

Options (whether or
not then exercisable
at prices not in excess
of the Merger Price)
which that Optionee
actually elects to
exercise, less (B) the
aggregate exercise price
of all such Outstanding
Options which the Optionee
actually exercises in
exchange for the termination
of all of that Optionee's
Outstanding Options;
or
(iv) provide that
all or any Outstanding
Options shall become
exercisable in full
immediately prior to
such event.
An "Acquisition
Event" shall mean:
(A) any merger or consolidation
which results in the
voting securities of
the Corporation outstanding
immediately prior thereto
representing immediately
thereafter (either by
remaining outstanding
or by being converted
into voting securities
of the surviving or
acquiring entity) less
than 50% of the combined
voting power of the
voting securities of
the Corporation or such
surviving or acquiring
entity outstanding immediately
after such merger or
consolidation, (B) any
sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of
the Corporation, or
(C) the complete liquidation
of the Corporation.
(b) SUBSTITUTE OPTIONS.
The Corporation may
grant options under
the Plan in substitution
for options held by
employees of another
corporation who become
employees of the Corporation,
or a subsidiary of the
Corporation, as the
result
of a merger or consolidation
of the employing corporation
with the Corporation
or a subsidiary of the
Corporation, or as a
result of the acquisition
by the Corporation,
or one of its subsidiaries,
of property or stock
of the employing corporation.
The Corporation may
direct that substitute
options be granted on
such terms and conditions
as the Board of Directors
considers appropriate
in the circumstances.
17. NO SPECIAL
EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS.
Nothing contained
in the Plan or in any
option shall confer
upon any optionee any
right with respect to
the continuation of
his or her employment
by the Corporation or
interfere in any way
with the right of the
Corporation at any time
to terminate such employment
or to increase or decrease
the compensation of
the optionee.
18. OTHER
EMPLOYEE BENEFITS.
Except as to plans
which by their terms
include such amounts
as compensation, the
amount of any compensation
deemed to be received
by an employee as a
result of the exercise
of an option or the
sale of shares received
upon such exercise will
not constitute compensation
with respect to which
any other employee benefits
of such employee are
determined, including,
without limitation,
benefits under any bonus,
pension, profit-sharing,
life insurance or salary
continuation plan, except
as otherwise specifically
determined by the Board
of Directors.
19. AMENDMENT
OF THE PLAN.
(a) The Board of Directors
may at any time, and
from time to time, modify
or amend the Plan in
any respect, except
that if at any time
the approval of the
shareholders of the
Corporation is required
under Section 422 of
the Code or any successor
provision with respect
to Incentive Stock Options,
the Board of Directors
may not effect such
modification or amendment
without such approval.
(b) The termination
or any modification
or amendment of the
Plan shall not, without
the consent of an optionee,
affect his or her rights
under an option previously
granted to him or her.
With the consent of
the optionee affected,
the Board of Directors
may amend outstanding
option agreements in
a manner not inconsistent
with the Plan. The Board
of Directors shall have
the right to amend or
modify the terms and
provisions of the Plan
and of any outstanding
Incentive Stock Options
granted under the Plan
to the extent necessary
to qualify any or all
such options for such
favorable federal income
tax treatment (including
deferral of taxation
upon exercise) as may
be afforded incentive
stock options under
Section 422 of the Code.
20. WITHHOLDING.
The Corporation shall
have the right to deduct
from payments of any
kind otherwise due to
the optionee any federal,
state or local taxes
of any kind required
by law to be withheld
with respect to any
shares issued upon exercise
of options under the
Plan. Subject to the
prior approval of the
Corporation, which may
be withheld by the Corporation
in its sole discretion,
the optionee may elect
to satisfy such obligations,
in whole or in part,
(i) by causing the
Corporation to withhold
shares of Common Stock
otherwise issuable pursuant
to the exercise of an
option or (ii) by delivering
to the Corporation shares
of Common Stock already
owned by the optionee.
The shares so delivered
or withheld shall have
a fair market value
equal to such withholding
obligation. The fair
market value of the
shares used to satisfy
such withholding obligation
shall bedetermined by
the Corporation as of
the date that the amount
of tax to be
withheld is to be determined.
An optionee who has
made an election pursuant
to this Section 20(a)
may only satisfy his
or her withholding obligation
with shares of Common
Stock which are not
subject to any repurchase,
forfeiture, unfulfilled
vesting or other similar
requirements.
21. CANCELLATION
AND NEW GRANT OF OPTIONS,
ETC.
The Board of Directors
shall have the authority
to effect, at any time
and from time to time,
with the consent of
the affected optionees,
(i) the cancellation
of any or all outstanding
options under the Plan
and the grant in substitution
therefor of new options
under the Plan covering
the same or different
numbers of shares of
Common Stock and having
an option exercise price
per share which may
be lower or higher than
the exercise price per
share of the cancelled
options, or
(ii) the amendment
of the terms of any
and all outstanding
options under the Plan
to provide an option
exercise price per share
which is higher or lower
than the then current
exercise price per share
of such outstanding
options.
22. EFFECTIVE
DATE AND DURATION OF
THE PLAN.
(a) EFFECTIVE DATE.
The Plan shall become
effective as of the
date marked below, but
no Incentive Stock Option
granted under the Plan
shall become exercisable
unless and until the
Plan shall have been
approved by the Corporation's
shareholders. If such
shareholder approval
is not obtained within
twelve months after
the effective date of
the Plan, no options
previously granted under
the Plan shall be deemed
to be Incentive Stock
Options and no Incentive
Stock Options shall
be granted thereafter.
Amendments to the Plan
not requiring shareholder
approval shall become
effective when adopted
by the Board of Directors;
amendments requiring
shareholder approval
(as provided in Section
19) shall become effective
when adopted by the
Board of Directors,
but no Incentive Stock
Option granted after
the date of such amendment
shall become exercisable
(to the extent that
such amendment to the
Plan was required to
enable the Corporation
to grant such Incentive
Stock Option to a particular
optionee) unless and
until such amendment
shall have been approved
by the Corporation's
shareholders. If such
shareholder approval
is not obtained within
twelve months of the
Board's adoption of
such amendment, any
Incentive Stock Options
granted on or after
the date of such amendment
shall terminate to the
extent that such amendment
to the Plan was required
to enable the Corporation
to grant such option
to a particular optionee.
Subject to this limitation,
options may be granted
under the Plan at any
time after the effective
date and before
the date fixed for termination
of the Plan.
(b) TERMINATION. Unless
sooner terminated in
accordance with Section
16, the Plan shall terminate,
with respect to Incentive
Stock Options, upon
the earlier of
(i) the close of business
on the day next preceding
the tenth anniversary
of the date of its adoption
by the Board of Directors,
or
(ii) the date on which
all shares available
for issuance under the
Plan shall have been
issued pursuant to the
exercise or cancellation
of options granted under
the Plan. Unless sooner
terminated in accordance
with Section 16, the
Plan shall terminate
with respect to options
which are not Incentive
Stock Options on the
date specified in (ii)
above. If the date of
termination is determined
under (i) above, then
options outstanding
on such date shall continue
to have force and effect
in accordance with the
provisions of the instruments
evidencing such options.
23. PROVISION
FOR FOREIGN PARTICIPANTS.
The Board of Directors
may, without amending
the Plan, modify awards
or options granted to
participants who are
foreign nationals or
employed outside the
United States to recognize
differences in laws,
rules, regulations or
customs of such foreign
jurisdictions with respect
to tax, securities,
currency, employee benefit
or other matters.
