PRE 14A8th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 8th
REQUIRED VOTES The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast in person or by proxy is necessary for the election of directors (Proposal 1). The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy is necessary: for the approval of the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to 4networld.com, Inc. (Proposal 2); for the approval of the reverse split of the shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock such that one (1) share of "new" common stock will be issued in exchange for each fifty (50) shares of common stock currently issued and outstanding (Proposal 3); for the approval of the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to decrease the shares of capital stock authorized for issuance from 500,000,000 shares of common stock to 105,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of 100,000,000 shares of $.00001 par value common stock and 5,000,000 shares of $.01 par value preferred stock (Proposal 4); for the ratification and approval of the amendment to the By-Laws to change the size of the Board of Directors from its current five members to "not less than three (3) members nor greater than eight (8) members, with the exact number within that range to be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors" (Proposal 5); and for the ratification and approval of the adoption of the 2000 Plan (Proposal 6). Votes at the Meeting will be tabulated by an independent inspector of election appointed by the Company or the Company's transfer agent. Since the affirmative vote of a plurality of votes cast is required for the election of directors, abstentions and "broker non-votes" will have no effect on the outcome of such election. Since the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast is necessary for the approval of Proposal 2, Proposal 3, and Proposal 4, and for the ratification and approval of Proposal 5 and Proposal 6, an abstention will have the same effect as a negative vote, but "broker non-votes" will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. Brokers holding shares for beneficial owners must vote those shares according to the specific instructions they receive from beneficial owners. If specific instructions are not received, brokers may be precluded from exercising their discretion, depending on the type of proposal involved. Shares as to which brokers have not exercised discretionary authority or have not received instructions from beneficial owners are considered "broker non- votes," and will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum, but will not be deemed to have been voted in favor of such matter. PROXY SOLICITATION The Company will bear the costs of the solicitation of proxies for the Meeting. Directors and officers of the Company may solicit proxies from Stockholders by mail, telephone, telegram, personal interview or otherwise. Such directors and officers will not receive additional compensation but may be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such solicitation. Brokers, nominees, fiduciaries and other custodians have been requested to forward soliciting material to the beneficial owners of common stock held of 4
PRE 14A9th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 9th
record by them and such custodians will be reimbursed for their reasonable expenses. IT IS DESIRABLE THAT AS LARGE A PROPORTION AS POSSIBLE OF THE STOCKHOLDERS' INTERESTS BE REPRESENTED AT THE MEETING. THEREFORE, EVEN IF YOU INTEND TO BE PRESENT AT THE MEETING, YOU ARE REQUESTED TO COMPLETE, DATE AND SIGN THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD AND TO RETURN IT PROMPTLY IN THE POSTAGE PAID ENVELOPE PROVIDED TO ENSURE THAT YOUR STOCK WILL BE REPRESENTED. IF YOU ARE PRESENT AT THE MEETING AND DESIRE TO DO SO, YOU MAY WITHDRAW YOUR PROXY AND VOTE IN PERSON OR YOU MAY WITHDRAW YOUR PROXY AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THE MEETING BY GIVING WRITTEN NOTICE TO THE COMPANY ATTN: STEVEN N. BRONSON. PLEASE RETURN YOUR EXECUTED PROXY PROMPTLY.

(2) Mr. Bronson was the Sole Officer and Director of the Company during fiscal 1999. On March 17, 2000, Justin Model, Alan Rosenberg and Leonard Hagan were appointed to the Board of Directors under the By-Laws of the Company to fill vacancies on the Board. Messrs. Model, Rosenberg and Hagan do not beneficially own any common stock of the Company. However, if the Stockholders approve and ratify the 2000 Plan, then pursuant to the 2000 Plan, Messrs. Model, Rosenberg and Hagan will each receive an automatic grant of options to purchase 10,000 shares of the Company's common stock, with an exercise price equal to the Fair Market Value of the Company's common stock on the date of the grant. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is not aware of any material proceedings to which any director, executive officer or affiliate of the Company or any security holder, including any owner of record or beneficially of more than 5% of any class of the Company's voting securities, is a party adverse to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company. On or about August 3, 1999, in connection with an agreement with a third party, who was a potential merger candidate, the Company made unsecured loans to the third party totaling $170,000, which bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The agreement, as amended, between the Company and the third party is annexed as an Exhibit to the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 1999 and is expressly incorporated herein by reference. The merger negotiations between the Company and the third-party have been cancelled and the third party has failed to repay the loans as required by the agreement. On or about November 22, 1999, the Company commenced a lawsuit to recover the $170,000 loaned to the third party. The action is entitled: MedTech Diagnostics, Inc. v. Abtech Industries, Inc. and is pending in the New York State Supreme Court, New York County and has been assigned Index No. 99-605288. The Company has entered into a settlement agreement whereby Abtech Industries, Inc. has agree to pay the Company $170,000, plus interest at a rate of 10% on that sum from August 3, 1999, on or before April 30, 2000. The settlement agreement is secured by a confession of judgment executed by Abtech Industries, Inc. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to recover any of the moneys loaned to the third party. The Company is not aware of any other material pending legal proceedings, to which the Company is a party. INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS On December 8, 1999, the Company dismissed Grant Thornton LLP as its independent accountants. The reports of Grant Thornton LLP on the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, however, the opinions included an explanatory paragraph stating that there were conditions that raised substantial doubt about the registrant's ability to continue as a going concern. In connection with Grant Thornton LLP's audits of the Company for the fiscal years ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997 and through 6
PRE 14A11th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 11th
December 8, 1999, there have been no disagreements with Grant Thornton LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of Grant Thornton LLP would have caused them to make a reference thereto in their report on the financial statements for such periods. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997 and through December 8, 1999, there have been no reportable events (as defined in Regulation S-K Item 304(a)(1)(v)). The Company engaged Kaufman, Rossin & Co. as its new independent accountants, as of December 8, 1999, to audit the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997 and through December 8, 1999, the Company has not consulted Kaufman, Rossin & Co. regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the financial statements of the Company, and either a written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that Kaufman, Rossin & Co. concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997 and through December 8, 1999, the Company has not consulted Kaufman, Rossin & Co. regarding any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K. PROPOSAL 1 ELECTION OF DIRECTORS As set forth in greater detail in Proposal 5 of this Proxy Statement, on March 17, 2000, the Board approved an amendment to the By-Laws of the Company to change the size of the Board from five members to "not less than three (3) members nor greater than eight (8) members, with the exact number within that range to be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors." On that date the Board set the number of directors at four. Therefore, in the event of the ratification and approval of Proposal 5 by the Stockholders at the Meeting, the By-Laws of the Company shall provide that the Company have four directors. Directors of the Company are elected annually at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Their respective terms of office continue until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified in accordance with the Company's By-Laws.

The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director shall be liable to the corporation or any of its stockholders for monetary damages, for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except with respect to 7

The Company has agreed to indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by Sections 102(b)(7) and 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time, each person that such Sections grant the Company the power to indemnify . Unless otherwise specified, each proxy received will be voted for the election as directors of the four nominees named below to serve until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors shall have been duly elected and qualified. Each of the nominees has consented to be named a nominee in the Proxy Statement and to serve as a director if elected.

The 2000 Plan contains an automatic stock option grant provision pursuant to which non-qualified options to acquire 10,000 shares of common stock are automatically granted to each Non-Employee Director on the date of his or her initial appointment or election to the Board of Directors or the Stockholders' ratification and approval of the 2000 Plan, whichever is later, in consideration for service as a director. The exercise price for all 10,000 options granted to each Non-Employee Director under the 2000 Plan is the closing price of the common stock on the date of the grant as quoted on such exchange as the common stock may then be trading. See "SUMMARY OF 2000 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN," below, and Appendix C attached hereto. 9

PRE 14A15th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 15th
APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THE COMPANY The Board of Directors has deemed it advisable to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to 4networld.com, Inc. The Board of Directors has adopted the appropriate resolution to carry out such amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation and is presently seeking Stockholder approval to change the name of our Company from MedTech Diagnostics, Inc. to 4networld.com, Inc. The Board believes a change in our corporate name is desirable in view of the new business strategy of our Company. The Company's new business strategy is to acquire, market and fund Internet and technology related companies in their early stages of development and to act as an incubator for those companies. The new business strategy will focus on acquiring, marketing and funding Internet and technology companies whose primary market is business-to-business services or products. In this respect, our Board of Directors believes that the name change will promote our new corporate image in the marketplace and thereby enhance the marketability of our services. The name change will be effected by the filing with the Secretary of State of Delaware of a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation in substantially the form attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement. The name change will become effective on the date of filing, unless the Company specifies otherwise. Assuming Stockholder approval of this proposal is obtained, the Company plans to file the Certificate of Amendment at a time to be determined by the officers of the Company, but in any event not later than ten (10) business days after the Meeting. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding will be required to approve Proposal 2. Unless otherwise indicated, properly executed Proxies will be voted in favor of Proposal 2. OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR PROPOSAL 2. PROPOSAL 3 APPROVAL OF REVERSE SPLIT GENERAL The Board of Directors has deemed it advisable to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to effect a fifty (50) shares for (1) share stock exchange. The Board of Directors has adopted the appropriate resolution to carry out such amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation and is presently seeking Stockholder approval of an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company's outstanding common stock, pursuant to which each fifty (50) shares of outstanding common stock will automatically be combined and changed into one (1) share of "new" common stock (the "Reverse Stock Split"). PURPOSES OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT 11
PRE 14A16th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 16th
The Company believes that the Reverse Stock Split could increase the acceptance of the common stock by the financial community and the investing public. The Company's common stock is traded on NASDAQ's over-the-counter bulletin board. On March 17, 2000, the bid price for the common stock as reported by the National Quotation Bureau was [____] per share. The Company's common stock is considered to be a "penny stock" and as such is more difficult to trade and will not qualify for margin accounts at most if not all brokerage firms. The Reverse Stock Split would decrease the number of shares outstanding and presumably increase the per share market price of the common stock. However, the share price of the common stock may also be based on Company performance and other factors, some of which may be unrelated to the number of shares outstanding. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the price of the common stock after the Reverse Split would actually increase in an amount proportionate to the decrease in the number of outstanding shares. Although the Company believes that the Reverse Stock Split will have no detrimental effect on the total value of the Company's common stock, there can be no assurance that the total value of the Company's common stock after the Reverse Stock Split will be the same as before. However, to the extent that a Stockholder's holding is reduced by reason of the Reverse Stock split to less than 100 shares of common stock, the brokerage fees for the sale of his or her shares will in all likelihood be higher than the brokerage fees applicable to the sale of round lots of shares. CERTAIN OTHER EFFECTS OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT On March 17, 2000, there were 281,400,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Consummation of the Reverse Stock Split would decrease the number of outstanding shares of common stock to 5,628,000 shares. The par value of the common stock will remain $.00001 per share following consummation of the Reverse Stock Split. Following consummation of the Reverse Stock Split and assuming the approval of Proposal 4 (Decrease in the Number of Authorized Shares), discussed below, there will be 94,372,000 authorized shares of common stock $.00001 par value will be available for future issuance by the Company from time to time. Subject to the provisions for elimination of fractional shares as described below, consummation of the Reverse Stock Split will not result in a change in the relative equity position or voting power of the holders of common stock. MANNER OF EFFECTING THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES AND ELIMINATION OF FRACTIONAL SHARE INTERESTS The Reverse Stock Split will be effected by the filing with the Secretary of State of Delaware of a Certificate of Amendment in substantially the form attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement. The Reverse Stock Split will become effective on the date of filing, unless the Company specifies otherwise (the "Effective Date"). Assuming Stockholder approval of this proposal is obtained, the Company plans to file the Certificate of 12
PRE 14A17th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 17th
Amendment at a time to be determined by the officers of the Company, but in any event not later than ten (10) business days after the Meeting. On the Effective Date, each fifty (50) shares of "old" common stock will automatically be combined and changed into one (1) share of "new" common stock. No additional action on the part of the Company or any Stockholder will be required in order to effect the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders will be requested to exchange their certificates representing shares of common stock held prior to the Reverse Stock Split for new certificates representing shares of common stock issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders will be furnished the necessary materials and instructions to effect such exchange promptly following the Effective Date by the Company's transfer agent. Certificates representing shares of "old" common stock subsequently presented for transfer will not be transferred on the books and records of the Company until the certificates representing the shares of "old " common stock have been exchanged for certificates representing shares of "new" common stock. Stockholders should not submit any certificates until requested to do so. In the event any certificate representing shares of "old" common stock is not presented for exchange upon request by the Company, any dividends that may be declared after the Effective Date with respect to the common stock represented by such certificate will be withheld by the Company until such certificate has been properly presented for exchange, at which time all such withheld dividends which have not yet been paid to the public official pursuant to relevant abandoned property laws, will be paid to the holder thereof or his designee, without interest. No fractional shares of "new" common stock will be issued to any Stockholder. Any fractional shares of common stock which would result from this share exchange will not be issued but will be rounded up and exchanged for one (1) whole share of the "new" common stock. Accordingly, Stockholders of record who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares of "new" common stock, will, upon surrender of their certificates representing "old" shares of common stock, receive one (1) share of "new" common stock. EXAMPLE 1: Shareholder A owns 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock on May 11, 2000. Assuming that Proposal 3 is approved at the Meeting on May 11, 2000, by the Stockholders, then: On May 12, 2000 Shareholder A will own 500 shares of the Company's common stock. [25,000 divided by 50 equals 500] EXAMPLE 2: Shareholder B owns 15,287 shares of the Company's common stock on May 11, 2000. Assuming that Proposal 3 is approved at the Meeting on May 11, 2000, by the Stockholders, then: On May 12, 2000 Shareholder B will own 306 shares of the Company's common stock. [15,287 divided by 50 equals 305.74. The 74/100 share of common stock is rounded up to 1 full 13
PRE 14A18th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 18th
share. Thus, after the Reverse Stock Split Shareholder B owns 306 shares of the Company's common stock]. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT The following description of federal income tax consequences is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and applicable Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial authority and current administrative rulings and practices as in effect on the date of this Proxy Statement. This discussion should not be considered tax or investment advice, and the tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split may not be the same for all Stockholders. In particular, this discussion does not address the tax treatment of special classes of Stockholders, such as banks, insurance companies, tax-exempt entities, and foreign persons. Stockholders desiring to know their individual federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences should consult their own tax advisors. The combination and change of each fifty (50) shares of "old" common stock into one share of "new" common stock will be a tax-free transaction, and the holding period and tax basis of the "old" common stock will be transferred to the "new" common stock received in exchange therefor. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding will be required to approve Proposal 3. Unless otherwise indicated, properly executed Proxies will be voted in favor of Proposal 3. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR PROPOSAL 3. PROPOSAL 4 APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO DECREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES The Board of Directors has deemed it advisable to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to decrease the number of authorized shares of capital stock of the Company from 500,000,000 shares consisting solely of common stock par value $.00001 per share to 105,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of 100,000,000 shares of $.00001 par value common stock and 5,000,000 shares of $.01 par value preferred stock. The Board of Directors has adopted the appropriate resolution to carry out such amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation and is presently seeking Stockholder approval of such amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company presently authorizes the issuance of a total of 500,000,000 shares of capital stock, all of which is common stock, par value $.00001 per share. On March 17, 2000, the Board of Directors adopted a resolution proposing and declaring the advisability of an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation decreasing the authorized number of shares of capital stock for issuance from 500,000,000 shares to 105,000,000 shares consisting of 100,000,000 shares of $.00001 par value common stock and 5,000,000 shares of $.01 par value preferred stock. With respect to the preferred stock, the proposed amendment to the Certificate 14
PRE 14A19th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 19th
of Incorporation authorizes the Board of Directors, subject to limitations prescribed by law, to provide for the issuance of the shares of preferred stock in series, and by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Delaware, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. A form of the proposed Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation is attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement. Below is a description of the change in the number of shares and types of capital stock authorized for issuance by the Company if Proposal No. 4 is approved by the Stockholders: Currently the Certificate of Incorporation for the Company authorizes for issuance 500,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of: Number of Shares Class Par Value ---------------- ----- --------- 500,000,000 Common Stock $.00001 If a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are voted in favor of Proposal No. 4, then the Company will be authorized to issue 105,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of: Number of Shares Class Par Value ---------------- ----- --------- 100,000,000 Common Stock $.00001 5,000,000 Preferred Stock $.01 The Board of Directors believes that this reduction in the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance and the creation of a preferred stock are advisable to give the Company a more attractive and flexible capital structure to assist the Company in consummating any future merger, acquisition, reorganization, or other transaction. Also, the reduction in authorized shares of capital stock may allow the Company to reduce certain future franchise tax expenses. The Company is a Delaware corporation and is subject to an annual franchise tax payment under Delaware law. Delaware's annual franchise tax payment is calculated by one of two methods - the authorized number of shares method or the assumed capital method. Between the two methods the lesser tax is payable. A reduction in authorized shares would, ipso facto, reduce the amount of tax due as calculated by the authorized shares method. MANNER OF EFFECTING THE DECREASE IN AUTHORIZED SHARES The decrease in authorized shares of the Company's common stock will be effected by the filing with the Secretary of State of Delaware of a certificate of Amendment in substantially the form attached as Appendix A to 15
PRE 14A20th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 20th
this Proxy Statement. The decrease in authorized shares of the Company's common stock will become effective on the date of filing, unless the Company specifies otherwise. Assuming Stockholder approval of this proposal is obtained, the Company plans to file the Certificate of Amendment at a time to be determined by the officers of the Company, but in any event not later than ten (10) business days after the Meeting. The Directors believe that following the approval of the reduction in the authorized capital stock of the Company, there will be sufficient authorized but unissued shares of both common and preferred stock to provide the Company with the flexibility it might need in the future. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding will be required to approve this Proposal 4. Unless otherwise indicated, properly executed Proxies will be voted in favor of Proposal 4. THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE FOR PROPOSAL 4. PROPOSAL 5 RATIFICATION AND APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE BY-LAWS TO CHANGE THE SIZE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS The Board of Directors has deemed it advisable to amend Article III, Section 1 of the By-Laws of the Company to change the size of the Board of Directors from its current five members to "not less than three (3) members nor greater than eight (8) members, with the exact number within that range to be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors." The Board has taken action to adopt such amendment to the By-Laws of the Company and is presently seeking Stockholder approval and ratification of the amendment to the Company's By- Laws. Prior to March 17, 2000, Article III, Section 1 of the By-Laws of the Company provided that the authorized number of directors shall be five (5). On March 17, 2000, pursuant to the Company's By-Laws, the Board of Directors amended Article III, Section 1 of the By-Laws of the Company to change the size of the Board of Directors from its current five members to "not less than three (3) members nor greater than eight (8) members, with the exact number within that range to be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors", and fixed the exact number of directors within the proposed range at four (4). The Board is presently seeking Stockholder approval and ratification of the amendment to Article III, Section 1 of the By-Laws. A copy of the Amended and Restated By-Laws of the Company is attached hereto as Appendix B. The purpose of this amendment to the By-Laws is to provide greater flexibility to the Board with respect to determining the number of directors on the Board. With the ability to fix the number of directors at a number between three and eight, the Company would have the flexibility in future merger, acquisition, reorganization or other negotiations to retain additional directors whose skill and experience would benefit the Company and the conduct and operations of the Board without subjecting the Company or its Stockholders 16
PRE 14A21st Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 21st
to the additional expense and effort required to amend the By-Laws each time the Company wishes to add a new director. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding will be required to approve this Proposal 5. Unless otherwise indicated, properly executed Proxies will be voted in favor of Proposal 5. THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE FOR PROPOSAL 5. 17

PROPOSAL 6 ADOPTION OF THE 2000 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN The Board of Directors has deemed it advisable to adopt the 2000 Plan. The Board has taken action to adopt the 2000 Plan and is presently seeking Stockholder approval and ratification of the 2000 Plan. The 2000 Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors on March 17, 2000, and will become effective on May 12, 2000, subject to approval by the Stockholders at the Meeting. The purpose of the 2000 Plan is to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility and to provide additional incentives to employees, officers, directors, consultants, independent contractors and advisors to promote the growth and success of the Company's business. Plans such as the 2000 Plan have become particularly important for the Company to be able to retain and attract key management and directors because of the competitive nature of the market in which the Company operates. The following summary of the 2000 Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the 2000 Plan as set forth in Appendix C hereto. SUMMARY OF THE 2000 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN ADMINISTRATION AND ELIGIBILITY. The 2000 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 1,100,000 shares of common stock (after giving effect to the fifty (50) for one (1) reverse stock split described in Proposal 2) upon the exercise of stock options or in connection with the issuance of restricted stock and stock bonuses. The 2000 Plan authorizes the granting of (i) stock options, restricted stock and stock bonuses to employees, officers, directors and consultants, independent contractors and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries provided such consultants, independent contractors and advisors render bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction and (ii) a non-discretionary automatic award of stock options to each of the non-employee directors of the Company. The 2000 Plan provides for its administration by either a committee of two or more outside directors or the Board of Directors (the "Administrator"). In general, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, determines which eligible employees, officers, directors, consultants, independent contractors and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries may participate in the 2000 Plan and the type, extent and terms of the equity- based awards to be granted to them. The 2000 Plan provides for the grant of both incentive stock options ("ISOs") that qualify under Section 422 of the Code, and non-qualified stock options ("NQSOs"). ISOs may be granted only to employees of the Company or of a parent or subsidiary of the Company. NQSOs (and all other awards other than ISOs) may be granted to employees, officers, directors and consultants, independent contractors and advisors that render bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction. The exercise price of ISOs must be at least equal to the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of ISOs granted to 10% Stockholders must be at least equal to 110% of 18
PRE 14A23rd Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 23rd
that value. The exercise price of NQSOs must be at least equal to 65% of the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The maximum term of options granted under the 2000 Plan is ten years. Awards granted under the 2000 Plan may not be transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of the optionee only by the optionee (unless otherwise determined by the Administrator and set forth in the award agreement with respect to awards that are NQSOs). Options granted under the 2000 Plan generally expire three months after the termination of the optionee's service to the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company, except in the case of death or disability, in which case the options generally may be exercised up to 12 months following the date of death or termination of service. Options will generally terminate immediately upon termination for cause. In the event of the Company's dissolution or liquidation or a "change in control" transaction, outstanding awards may be assumed or substituted by the successor corporation (if any). In the discretion of the Administrator the vesting of such awards may accelerate upon such transaction. RESTRICTED STOCK. The Administrator may make grants of restricted stock for cash or other consideration, as the Administrator determines. The number of shares of common stock granted to each grantee will be determined by the Administrator. Grants of restricted stock will be made subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion, including periods of restriction on transferability during which time the grant may be required to be deposited with an escrow agent, if the Administrator so determines. STOCK BONUSES. A stock bonus is an award of Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock) for services rendered to the Company or any subsidiary of the Company for past or future services. Stock bonuses and the criteria they are based upon will be determined by the Administrator. AUTOMATIC GRANTS TO NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS. The 2000 Plan provides for the automatic grant of NQSOs to each of the Company's non-employee directors to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock of the Company, after giving effect to the May 11, 2000 fifty (50) shares for one (1) share reverse stock split (the "Automatic Director Stock Options"). Under the 2000 Plan each non- employee director of the Company shall receive the Automatic Director Stock Options on the day of their appointment to the Board under the By-Laws of the Company or their election to the Board at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company or at a special meeting of stockholders of the Company, whichever date is first to occur. However, with respect to the current non- employee directors of the Company, Messrs. Model, Rosenberg and Hagan, such non-employee directors will not receive their Automatic Director Stock Options until the Stockholders of the Company ratify and approve the 2000 Plan at the Meeting, currently scheduled for May 11, 2000. The Automatic Director Stock Options will have an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value thereof on the date of grant and will be exercisable for a period of ten years from the date of grant. All of such Automatic Director Stock Options will vest immediately upon the date of grant. 19
PRE 14A24th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 24th
AMENDMENT. The Board has the right to amend, suspend or terminate the 2000 Plan at any time, provided, however, that no amendment or change in the 2000 Plan that requires Stockholder approval will be effective without such approval. CERTAIN TAX CONSEQUENCES. No taxable income is realized by an optionee upon the grant or exercise of an ISO. If common stock is issued to an optionee pursuant to the exercise of an ISO, and if no disqualifying disposition of such shares is made by such optionee within two years after the date of grant or within one year after the transfer of such shares to such optionee, then (i)upon sale of such shares, any amount realized in excess of the option price will be taxed to such optionee as a long-term capital gain and any loss sustained will be a long-term capital loss, and (ii) no deduction will be allowed to the optionee's employer for Federal income tax purposes. If common stock acquired upon the exercise of an ISO is disposed of prior to the expiration of either holding period described above, generally (i) the optionee will realize ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the fair market value of such shares at exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on the disposition of such shares) over the option price paid for such shares, and (ii) the optionee's employer will be entitled to deduct such amount for Federal income tax purposes if the amount represents an ordinary and necessary business expense. Any further gain (or loss) realized by the optionee upon the sale of the common stock will be taxed as short-term or long-term capital gain (or loss), depending on how long the shares have been held, and will not result in any deduction by the employer. Subject to certain exceptions for disability or death, if an ISO is exercised more than three months following termination of employment, the exercise of the option will generally be taxed as the exercise of a non-ISO. For purposes of determining whether an optionee is subject to any alternative minimum tax liability, an optionee who exercises an ISO generally would be required to increase his or her alternative minimum taxable income, and compute the tax basis in the stock so acquired, in the same manner as if the optionee had exercised a non-ISO. Each optionee is potentially subject to the alternative minimum tax. In substance, a taxpayer is required to pay the higher of his/her alternative minimum tax liability or his/her "regular" income tax liability. As a result, a taxpayer has to determine his/her potential liability under the alternative minimum tax. With respect to non-ISOs (i) no income is realized by the optionee at the time the option is granted; (ii) generally, at exercise, ordinary income is realized by the optionee in an amount equal to the difference between the option price paid for the shares and the fair market value of the shares, if unrestricted, on the date of exercise, and the optionee's employer is generally entitled to a tax deduction in the same amount subject to applicable tax withholding requirements; and (iii) at sale, appreciation (or depreciation) after the date of exercise is treated as either short-term or long-term capital gain (or loss) depending on how long the shares have been held. Individuals subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act will recognize ordinary income at the time of exercise of a non-ISO as noted above, provided at least six months have elapsed from the date of grant to the date of exercise. In the event that less than six months have elapsed, such individual will recognize ordinary income at the time such six month period elapses in an 20
PRE 14A25th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 25th
amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on such date over the exercise price. The granting of an award of restricted stock does not result in taxable income to the recipient unless the recipient elects to report the award as taxable income under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. Absent such an election, the value of the award is considered taxable income once it is vested and distributed. Dividends are paid concurrent with, and in an amount equal to, ordinary dividends and are taxable as paid. If a Section 83(b) election is made, the recipient recognizes ordinary income in the amount of the total value on the date of grant and the Company receives a corresponding tax deduction. Any gain or loss subsequently experienced will be a capital gain or loss to the recipient and the Company does not receive an additional tax deduction. NEW PLAN BENEFITS. The grant of options under the 2000 Plan is within the discretion of the Administrator, except that non-employee directors of the Company will receive an automatic grant of NQSOs, as noted above. The Company cannot forecast the extent of option grants that will be made in the future. Information with respect to compensation paid and other benefits, including options, granted in respect of the 1999 fiscal year to the Executive Officer is set forth above. During fiscal 1999, no stock options were granted to any of the officers or directors of the Company. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding will be required to approve this Proposal 6. Unless otherwise indicated, properly executed Proxies will be voted in favor of Proposal 6. THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE FOR PROPOSAL 6. OTHER MATTERS As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board of Directors does not intend to present any other matter for action at the Meeting other than as set forth in the Notice of Special Meeting and this Proxy Statement. If any other matters properly come before the Meeting, it is intended that the shares represented by the proxies will be voted, in the absence of contrary instructions, in the discretion of the persons named in the proxy. SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company's directors and executive officers and any persons who own more than 10% of the Company's capital stock to file with the Commission (and, if such security is listed on a national securities exchange, with such exchange), various reports as to ownership of such capital stock. Such persons are required by Commission regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely upon reports and representations submitted by the directors, executive officers and holders of more than 10% of the Company's capital stock, all Forms 3, 4 and 5 showing ownership of and changes of ownership in 21

Options may be exercised only by delivery to the Company of a written stock option exercise agreement (the "Exercise Agreement") in a form approved by the Committee (which need not be the same for each Participant), stating the number of Shares being purchased, the restrictions imposed on the Shares purchased under such Exercise Agreement, if any, and such representations and agreements regarding Participant's investment intent and access to information and other matters, if any, as may be required or desirable by the Company to comply with applicable securities laws, together with payment in full of the Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased. 5.6 Termination. Notwithstanding the exercise periods set forth in the Stock Option Agreement, exercise of an Option will always be subject to the following: a. If the Participant is Terminated for any reason except death or Disability, then the Participant may exercise such Participant's Options only to the extent that such Options would have been exercisable upon the Termination Date no later than three (3) months after 41
PRE 14A46th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 46th
the Termination Date (or such shorter or longer time period not exceeding five (5) years as may be determined by the Committee, with any exercise beyond three (3) months after the Termination Date deemed to be a NQSO), but in any event, no later than the expiration date of the Options. b. If the Participant is Terminated because of Participant's death or Disability (or the Participant dies within three (3) months after a Termination other than for Cause or because of Participant's Disability), then Participant's Options may be exercised only to the extent that such Options would have been exercisable by Participant on the Termination Date and must be exercised by Participant (or Participant's legal representative or authorized assignee) no later than twelve (12) months after the Termination Date (or such shorter or longer time period not exceeding five (5) years as may be determined by the Committee, with any such exercise beyond (a) three (3) months after the Termination Date when the Termination is for any reason other than the Participant's death or Disability, or (b) twelve (12) months after the Termination Date when the Termination is for Participant's death or Disability, deemed to be a NQSO), but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Options. c. Notwithstanding the provisions in paragraph 5.6(a) above, if a Participant is terminated for Cause, neither the Participant, the Participant's estate nor such other person who may then hold the Option shall be entitled to exercise any Option with respect to any Shares whatsoever, after termination of service, whether or not after termination of service the Participant may receive payment from the Company or Subsidiary for vacation pay, for services rendered prior to termination, for services rendered for the day on which termination occurs, for salary in lieu of notice, or for any other benefits. In making such determination, the Board shall give the Participant an opportunity to present to the Board evidence on his behalf. For the purpose of this paragraph, termination of service shall be deemed to occur on the date when the Company dispatches notice or advice to the Participant that his service is terminated. 5.7 Limitations on ISO. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant) of Shares with respect to which ISO are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under this Plan or under any other incentive stock option plan of the Company, Parent or Subsidiary of the Company) will not exceed $100,000. If the Fair Market Value of Shares on the date of grant with respect to which ISO are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, then the Options for the first $100,000 worth of Shares to become exercisable in such calendar year will be ISO and the Options for the amount in excess of $100,000 that become exercisable in that calendar year will be NQSOs. In the event that the Code or the regulations promulgated 42
PRE 14A47th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 47th
thereunder are amended after the Effective Date of this Plan to provide for a different limit on the Fair Market Value of Shares permitted to be subject to ISO, such different limit will be automatically incorporated herein and will apply to any Options granted after the effective date of such amendment. 5.8 Modification, Extension or Renewal. The Committee may modify, extend or renew outstanding Options and authorize the grant of new Options in substitution therefor, provided that any such action may not, without the written consent of a Participant, impair any of such Participant's rights under any Option previously granted. Any outstanding ISO that is modified, extended, renewed or otherwise altered will be treated in accordance with Section 424(h) of the Code. The Committee may reduce the Exercise Price of outstanding Options without the consent of Participants affected by a written notice to them; provided, however, that the Exercise Price may not be reduced below the minimum Exercise Price that would be permitted under Section 5.3 of this Plan for Options granted on the date the action is taken to reduce the Exercise Price. 5.9 Limitations on Exercise. The Committee may specify a reasonable minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of an Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent Participant from exercising the Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then exercisable. 5.10 No Disqualification. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, no term of this Plan relating to ISO will be interpreted, amended or altered, nor will any discretion or authority granted under this Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify this Plan under Section 422 of the Code or, without the consent of the Participant affected, to disqualify any ISO under Section 422 of the Code. 6. Restricted Stock. A Restricted Stock Award is an offer by the Company to sell to an eligible person Shares that are subject to restrictions. The Committee will determine to whom an offer will be made, the number of Shares the person may purchase, the price to be paid (the "Purchase Price"), the restrictions to which the Shares will be subject, and all other terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Award, subject to the following: 6.1 Form of Restricted Stock Award. All purchases under a Restricted Stock Award made pursuant to this Plan will be evidenced by an Award Agreement ("Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement") that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. The offer of Restricted Stock will be accepted by the Participant's execution and delivery of the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement and full payment for the Shares to the Company within thirty (30) days from the date the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement is delivered to the person. If such person does not execute and deliver the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement along with full payment for the Shares to the Company within thirty (30) days, then the offer will terminate, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. 6.2 Purchase Price. The Purchase Price of Shares sold pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award will be determined by the Committee on the date the Restricted Stock Award is granted, except in the case of a sale to a Ten Percent Stockholder, in which case the Purchase Price will be 100% of 43
PRE 14A48th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 48th
the Fair Market Value. Payment of the Purchase Price may be made in accordance with Section 8 of this Plan. 6.3 Terms of Restricted Stock Awards. Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose. These restrictions may be based upon completion of a specified number of years of service with the Company or upon completion of the performance goals as set out in advance in the Participant's individual Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement. Restricted Stock Awards may vary from Participant to Participant and between groups of Participants. Prior to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, the Committee shall: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the Restricted Stock Award; (b) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure performance goals, if any; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the Participant. Prior to the payment of any Restricted Stock Award, the Committee shall determine the extent to which such Restricted Stock Award has been earned. Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to Restricted Stock Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and having different performance goals and other criteria. 6.4 Stock Restrictions. Each certificate representing Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan shall bear the following legend until the lapse of all restrictions with respect to such Stock: "Transfer of this certificate and the shares represented hereby is restricted pursuant to the terms of a Restricted Stock Agreement, dated as of _______, between 4networld.com, Inc. and ____________. A copy of such Agreement is on file at the Principal executive offices of the Company." Stop transfer orders shall be entered with the Company's transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of legended securities. 6.5 Termination During Performance Period. If a Participant is Terminated during a Performance Period for any reason, then such Participant will be entitled to payment (whether in Shares, cash or otherwise) with respect to the Restricted Stock Award only to the extent earned as of the date of Termination in accordance with the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement, unless the Committee will determine otherwise. 7. Stock Bonuses. 7.1 Awards of Stock Bonuses. A Stock Bonus is an award of Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock) for services rendered to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. A Stock Bonus may be awarded for past services already rendered to the Company, or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company pursuant to an Award Agreement (the "Stock Bonus Agreement") that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. A Stock Bonus may be awarded upon satisfaction of such performance goals as are set out in advance in the Participant's individual Award Agreement (the "Performance Stock Bonus Agreement") that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. Stock Bonuses may vary from Participant to Participant and between groups of 44
PRE 14A49th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 49th
Participants, and may be based upon the achievement of the Company, Parent or Subsidiary and/or individual performance factors or upon such other criteria as the Committee may determine. 7.2 Terms of Stock Bonuses. The Committee will determine the number of Shares to be awarded to the Participant. If the Stock Bonus is being earned upon the satisfaction of performance goals pursuant to a Performance Stock Bonus Agreement, then the Committee will: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for each Stock Bonus; (b) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the performance, if any; and (c) determine the number of Shares that may be awarded to the Participant. Prior to the payment of any Stock Bonus, the Committee shall determine the extent to which such Stock Bonuses have been earned. Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to Stock Bonuses that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance goals and other criteria. The number of Shares may be fixed or may vary in accordance with such performance goals and criteria as may be determined by the Committee. The Committee may adjust the performance goals applicable to the Stock Bonuses to take into account changes in law and accounting or tax rules and to make such adjustments as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships. 7.3 Form of Payment. The earned portion of a Stock Bonus may be paid currently or on a deferred basis with such interest or dividend equivalent, if any, as the Committee may determine. Payment may be made in the form of cash or whole Shares or a combination thereof, either in a lump sum payment or in installments, all as the Committee will determine. 8. Payment For Share Purchases. 8.1 Payment. Payment for Shares purchased pursuant to this Plan may be made in cash (by check) or, where expressly approved for the Participant by the Committee and where permitted by law: a. by cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the Participant; b. by surrender of shares that either: (1) have been owned by Participant for more than six (6) months and have been paid for within the meaning of SEC Rule 144 (and, if such shares were purchased from the Company by use of a promissory note, such note has been fully paid with respect to such shares); or (2) were obtained by Participant in the public market; c. by tender of a full recourse promissory note having such terms as may be approved by the Committee and bearing interest at a rate sufficient to avoid imputation of income under Sections 483 and 1274 of the Code; provided, however, that Participants who are not employees or directors of the Company will not be entitled to purchase Shares with a promissory note unless the note is adequately secured by collateral other than the Shares; 45
PRE 14A50th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 50th
d. by waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Participant for services rendered; e. with respect only to purchases upon exercise of an Option, and provided that a public market for the Company's stock exists: (1) through a "same day sale" commitment from the Participant and a broker-dealer that is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (an "NASD Dealer") whereby the Participant irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased to pay for the Exercise Price, and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; or (2) through a "margin" commitment from the Participant and a NASD Dealer whereby the Participant irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to pledge the Shares so purchased to the NASD Dealer in a margin account as security for a loan from the NASD Dealer in the amount of the Exercise Price, and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; or f. by any combination of the foregoing. 8.2 Loan Guarantees. The Committee may help the Participant pay for Shares purchased under this Plan by authorizing a guarantee by the Company of a third-party loan to the Participant. 9. Withholding Taxes. 9.1 Withholding Generally. Whenever Shares are to be issued in satisfaction of Awards granted under this Plan, the Company may require the Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such Shares. Whenever, under this Plan, payments in satisfaction of Awards are to be made in cash, such payment will be net of an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local withholding tax requirements. 9.2 Stock Withholding. When, under applicable tax laws, a Participant incurs tax liability in connection with the exercise or vesting of any Award that is subject to tax withholding and the Participant is obligated to pay the Company the amount required to be withheld, the Committee may in its sole discretion allow the Participant to satisfy the minimum withholding tax obligation by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld, determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by a Participant to have Shares withheld for this purpose will be made in accordance with the 46
PRE 14A51st Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 51st
requirements established by the Committee and be in writing in a form acceptable to the Committee. 10. Privileges of Stock Ownership. No Participant will have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any Shares until the Shares are issued to the Participant. After Shares are issued to the Participant, the Participant will be a stockholder and have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote and receive all dividends or other distributions made or paid with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such Shares are Restricted Stock, then any new, additional or different securities the Participant may become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by virtue of a stock dividend, stock split or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock; provided, further, that the Participant will have no right to retain such stock dividends or stock distributions with respect to Shares that are repurchased at the Participant's Purchase Price or Exercise Price pursuant to Section 12. 11. Transferability. Awards granted under this Plan, and any interest therein, will not be transferable or assignable by Participant, and may not be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process, otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or as determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement with respect to Awards that are not ISOs. During the lifetime of the Participant an Award will be exercisable only by the Participant, and any elections with respect to an Award may be made only by the Participant unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement with respect to Awards that are not ISOs. 12. Restrictions on Shares. At the discretion of the Committee, the Company may reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) in the Award Agreement a right to repurchase a portion of or all Unvested Shares held by a Participant following such Participant's Termination at any time within ninety (90) days after the later of Participant's Termination Date and the date Participant purchases Shares under this Plan, for cash and/or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness, at the Participant's Exercise Price or Purchase Price, as the case may be. 13. Certificates. All certificates for Shares or other securities delivered under this Plan will be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends and other restrictions as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable, including restrictions under any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may be listed or quoted. 14. Escrow; Pledge of Shares. To enforce any restrictions on a Participant's Shares, the Committee may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Committee, appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificates. Any Participant who is permitted to execute a promissory 47
PRE 14A52nd Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 52nd
note as partial or full consideration for the purchase of Shares under this Plan will be required to pledge and deposit with the Company all or part of the Shares so purchased as collateral to secure the payment of Participant's obligation to the Company under the promissory note; provided, however, that the Committee may require or accept other or additional forms of collateral to secure the payment of such obligation and, in any event, the Company will have full recourse against the Participant under the promissory note notwithstanding any pledge of the Participant's Shares or other collateral. In connection with any pledge of the Shares, Participant will be required to execute and deliver a written pledge agreement in such form as the Committee will from time to time approve. The Shares purchased with the promissory note may be released from the pledge on a pro rata basis as the promissory note is paid. 15. Exchange And Buyout of Awards. The Committee may, at any time or from time to time, authorize the Company, with the consent of the respective Participants, to issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any or all outstanding Awards. The Committee may at any time buy from a Participant an Award previously granted with payment in cash, Shares (including Restricted Stock) or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as the Committee and the Participant may agree. 16. Securities Law And Other Regulatory Compliance. An Award will not be effective unless such Award is in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations of any governmental body, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, as they are in effect on the date of grant of the Award and also on the date of exercise or other issuance. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates for Shares under this Plan prior to: (a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and/or (b) completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable. The Company will be under no obligation to register the Shares with the SEC or to effect compliance with the registration, qualification or listing requirements of any state securities laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the Company will have no liability for any inability or failure to do so. 17. No Obligation to Employ. Nothing in this Plan or any Award granted under this Plan will confer or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company to terminate Participant's employment or other relationship at any time, with or without cause. 18. Corporate Transactions. 18.1 Assumption or Replacement of Awards by Successor. In the event of (a) a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (b) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation (other than a merger or consolidation with a wholly-owned subsidiary, a 48
PRE 14A53rd Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 53rd
reincorporation of the Company in a different jurisdiction, or other transaction in which there is no substantial change in the stockholders of the Company or their relative stock holdings and the Awards granted under this Plan are assumed, converted or replaced by the successor corporation, which assumption will be binding on all Participants), (c) a merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but after which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger (other than any stockholder that merges, or which owns or controls another corporation that merges, with the Company in such merger) cease to own their shares or other equity interest in the Company, (d) the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (e) the acquisition, sale, or transfer of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company by tender offer or similar transaction, any or all outstanding Awards may be assumed, converted or replaced by the successor corporation (if any), which assumption, conversion or replacement will be binding on all Participants. In the alternative, the successor corporation may substitute equivalent Awards or provide substantially similar consideration to Participants as was provided to stockholders (after taking into account the existing provisions of the Awards). 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 repurchase restrictions no less favorable to the Participant. In the event such successor corporation (if any) refuses to assume or substitute Awards, as provided above, pursuant to a transaction described in this Subsection 18.1, such Awards will expire on such transaction at such time and on such conditions as the Committee will determine. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide that the vesting of any or all Awards granted pursuant to this Plan will accelerate upon a transaction described in this Section 18 or otherwise. If the Committee exercises such discretion with respect to Options, such Options will become exercisable in full prior to the consummation of such event at such time and on such conditions as the Committee determines, and if such Options are not exercised prior to the consummation of the corporate transaction, they shall terminate at such time as determined by the Committee. 18.2 Other Treatment of Awards. Subject to any greater rights granted to Participants under the foregoing provisions of this Section 18, in the event of the occurrence of any transaction described in Section 18.1, any outstanding Awards will be treated as provided in the applicable agreement or plan of merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation, or sale of assets. 18.3 Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another company, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other company or otherwise, by either; (a) granting an Award under this Plan in substitution of such other company's award; or (b) assuming such award as if it had been granted under this Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Award granted under this Plan. Such substitution or assumption will be permissible if the holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be granted an Award under this Plan if the other company had applied the rules of this Plan to such grant. In the event the Company assumes an award granted by another company, the terms and conditions of such award will remain unchanged (except that the exercise price and the number and nature of Shares issuable upon exercise of any such option will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code). In the event the Company elects to grant a new Option rather than assuming an existing option, such new Option may be granted with a similarly adjusted Exercise Price. 49
PRE 14A54th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 54th
18.4 Adjustment of Shares. In the event that the number of outstanding shares is changed by a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of the Company without consideration, then (a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan, (b) the Exercise Prices of and number of Shares subject to outstanding Options, and (c) the number of Shares subject to other outstanding Awards will be proportionately adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the Company and compliance with applicable securities laws; provided, however, that fractions of a Share will not be issued but will either be replaced by a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value of such fraction of a Share or will be rounded up to the nearest whole Share, as determined by the Committee. 19. Automatic Grants of Stock Options to Directors. Each non- employee director of the Company shall be automatically granted a NQSO to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock on the day of their appointment to the Board under the By-Laws of the Company or their election to the Board at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company or at a special meeting of stockholders of the Company, whichever date is first to occur. With respect to the current non-employee directors of the Company, such non-employee directors will not receive their NQSO to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock until the Stockholders of the Company ratify and approve the Plan. All such Options granted to the non-employee directors shall hereinafter be referred to as Director Stock Options. 19.1 Option Price; Term. All Director Stock Options shall have an Exercise Price per share equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant. Each of the options granted pursuant to this Section 19 shall vest immediately and become immediately exercisable. The term of each Director Stock Option ("Term"), after which each such Option shall expire, shall be ten years from the date of Grant. 19.2 Expiration. If prior to the expiration of the Term of a Director Stock Option, the non-employee director shall cease to be a member of the Board for any reason other than his death, the Director Stock Option shall expire on the earlier of the expiration of the Term or the date that is three months after the date of such cessation. If prior to the expiration of the Term of a Director Stock Option, a non-employee director shall cease to be a member of the Board by reason of his death, the Director Stock Option shall expire on the earlier of the expiration of the Term or the date that is one year after the date of such cessation. In the event a non- employee director ceases to be a member of the Board for any reason, any unexpired Director Stock Options shall thereafter be exercisable until their expiration only to the extent that such Director Stock Options were exercisable at the time of such cessation. 19.3 Director Stock Option Agreement. Each Director Stock Option shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, which shall contain such provisions as may be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that such provisions shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of Rule 16b-3 pursuant to the Exchange Act. 19.4 Nontransferability; Exclusive Grant. Subject to the terms hereof, Director Stock Options shall not be transferable except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the non-employee director's lifetime only by him. Non-employee directors are 50
PRE 14A55th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 55th
eligible to receive Awards under this Plan in addition to (and not in lieu of) any Awards pursuant to this Section 19. 20. Adoption And Stockholder Approval. This Plan will become effective on the date that this Plan is approved by the stockholders of the Company, consistent with applicable laws (the "Effective Date"). 21. Term of Plan. Unless earlier terminated as provided herein, this Plan will terminate ten (10) years from the date this Plan is adopted by the Board or, if earlier, the date of stockholder approval. 22. Amendment or Termination of Plan. The Board may at any time terminate or amend this Plan in any respect, including without limitation amendment of any form of Award Agreement or instrument to be executed pursuant to this Plan; provided, however, that the Board will not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, amend this Plan in any manner that requires such stockholder approval. 23. Effect of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Plan, and all Awards issued thereunder, are intended to be exempt from the application of Section 162(m) of the Code, which restricts under certain circumstances the Federal income tax deduction for compensation paid by a public company to named executives in excess of $1 million per year. The exemption is based on Treasury Regulation Section 1.162-27(f) as in effect on the effective date of the Plan, with the understanding that such regulation generally exempts from the application of Section 162(m) of the Code compensation paid pursuant to a plan that existed before a company becomes publicly held. The Committee may, without stockholder approval (unless otherwise required to comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act), amend the Plan retroactively and/or prospectively to the extent it determines necessary in order to comply with any subsequent clarification of Section 162(m) of the Code required to preserve the Company's Federal income tax deduction for compensation paid pursuant to the Plan. To the extent that the Committee determines as of the Date of Grant of an Award that (i) the Award is intended to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code and (ii) the exemption described above is no longer available with respect to such Award, such Award shall not be effective until any stockholder approval required under Section 162(m) of the Code has been obtained. 24. General. 24.1 Additional Provisions of an Award. Awards under the Plan also may be subject to such other provisions (whether or not applicable to the benefit awarded to any other Participant) as the Committee determines appropriate including, without limitation, provisions to assist the Participant in financing the purchase of Stock upon the exercise of Options, provisions for the forfeiture of or restrictions on resale or other disposition of shares of Stock acquired under any Award, provisions giving the Company the right to repurchase shares of Stock acquired under any Award in the event the Participant elects to dispose of such shares, and provisions to comply with Federal and state securities laws and Federal and state tax withholding requirements. Any such provisions shall be reflected in the applicable Award agreement. 51
PRE 14A56th Page of 61TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 56th
24.2. Claim to Awards and Employment Rights. No employee or other person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan or, having been selected for the grant of an Award, to be selected for a grant of any other Award. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any Participant any right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate. 24.3. Designation and Change of Beneficiary. Each Participant shall file with the Committee a written designation of one or more persons as the beneficiary who shall be entitled to receive the amounts payable with respect to an Award of Restricted Stock, if any, due under the Plan upon his death. A Participant may, from time to time, revoke or change his beneficiary designation without the consent of any prior beneficiary by filing a new designation with the Committee. The last such designation received by the Committee shall be controlling; provided, however, that no designation, or change or revocation thereof, shall be effective unless received by the Committee prior to the Participant's death, and in no event shall it be effective as of a date prior to such receipt. If no beneficiary designation is filed by the Participant, the beneficiary shall be deemed to be his or her spouse or, if the Participant is unmarried at the time of death, his or her estate. 24.4. Payments to Persons Other Than Participants. If the Committee shall find that any person to whom any amount is payable under the Plan is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, or is a minor, or has died, then any payment due to such person or his estate (unless a prior claim therefor has been made by a duly appointed legal representative) may, if the Committee so directs the Company, be paid to his spouse, child, relative, an institution maintaining or having custody of such person, or any other person deemed by the Committee to be a proper recipient on behalf of such person otherwise entitled to payment. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liability of the Committee and the Company therefor. 24.5. No Liability of Committee Members. No member of the Committee shall be personally liable by reason of any contract or other instrument executed by such member or on his behalf in his capacity as a member of the Committee nor for any mistake of judgment made in good faith, and the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Committee and each other employee, officer or director of the Company to whom any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan may be allocated or delegated, against any cost or expense (including counsel fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim) arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such person's own fraud or willful bad faith; provided, however, that approval of the Board shall be required for the payment of any amount in settlement of a claim against any such person. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company's Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless. 24.6. Governing law. The Plan and all agreements hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. 52
