In the event that the Optionee (i) dies, (ii) ceases to be employed by the company or any of its subsidiary corporations at any time before the expiration of three(3) years after the date on which this Option was last exercised or any of the option granted under this Plan, or (iii) desires to sell, pledge, hypothecate, transfer or otherwise dispose of or encumber all or any portion of the shares of stock that were purchased upon the exercise of this Option, the Company shall have the right to repurchase all or any portion of the shares of stock which wee acquired by the Optionee (or by the person or persons entitled to exercise this Option in the event of the death of the Optionee) pursuant to the exercise of this Option, upon the following terms and conditions: (a) Period -- Unless exercisable as a result of the death of the Optionee, the Company's right shall commence upon the date of which the Optionee ceases to be employed by the Company or one of its subsidiary corporations or the date on which the Optionee delivers to the Company written notice of desire to sell, pledge, hypothecate, transfer or otherwise dispose of or encumber all or any portion of the stock purchased upon the exercise of this Option, and shall expire thirty (30) days after such date.

However, if the Optionee fails to sell, pledge, hypothecate, transfer or otherwise dispose of or encumber all or any portion of the stock that was acquired upon the exercise of this Option within sixty (60) days after the date on which the Company shall be deemed to have waived its right, its right shall be reinstated and again operative upon the Optionee's death, termination of employment or any subsequent proposed disposition of such stock. In the event that its right to repurchase becomes exercisable by reason of the death of the Optionee, the Company's right shall commence on the date of the Optionee's death and shall expire twelve (12) months after the date on which it receives written notice of the Optionee's death from the legal representative appointed by and qualified in a probate court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) Exercise -- The Company shall exercise its right by delivering to the Optionee, the legal representative or the person or persons who exercised this Option after the death of the Optionee (the "Holder") a written notice stating the number of shares with respect to which it is exercising its right to repurchase. Such written notice shall be deemed to be effective as of the earlier of (i) the date on which it is received by the Holder, or (ii) the date on which it is placed in the United States Mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the Holder. (c) Price -- The price at which shares of stock may be repurchased by the Company upon the exercise of its right described in this paragraph 6 shall be fair market value of such shares on the date that such right is exercised.

(d) Payment -- The Company may pay for the stock repurchased from the Holder pursuant to its exercise of the right described in this paragraph 6 -- (i) if the Holder has held such option stock for three years or less, either by a lump sum cash payment at the time it exercises its right to repurchase pursuant to this paragraph 6, or, at the Company's discretion, partly by a lump sum cash payment (in the amount equal to the lesser of (A) the original option price paid by the Holder for such stock, or (B) the then fair market value of such stock) at the time of repurchase and partly by a promissory note requiring the Company to make equal annual cash installment payments over a period of not more than ten (10) years, or (ii) if the Holder has held such option stock for more than three years, by a lump sum cash payment at the time it exercises its right to repurchase pursuant to this paragraph 6, unless the Holder will, upon completion of the Company's repurchase of all or a portion of the option stock and taking into account all prior sales by the Holder of Cerner Common Stock to the Company, have sold back to the Company an aggregate number of shares exceeding one-half of one percent (1/2%) of its issued and outstanding shares of Cerner Common Stock (determined at the time of such repurchased), in which event the Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay partly by a lump sum cash payment (in the amount equal to the lessor of (A) the original option price paid by the Holder for such stock, or (B) the then fair market value of such stock) at the time of repurchase and partly by a promissory note requiring the Company to make equal annual cash installment payments over a period of not more than ten (10) years.
