(a) Offering Periods. The Administrator may from time to time grant or provide for the grant of rights to purchase Common Stock under
the Plan to Eligible Employees during one or more periods (each, an “Offering Period”) selected by the Administrator. The terms and conditions applicable to each Offering Period shall be set forth in an “Offering
Document” adopted by the Administrator, which Offering Document shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall deem appropriate and shall be incorporated by reference into and made part of
the Plan and shall be attached hereto as part of the Plan. The provisions of separate Offering Periods under the Plan need not be identical. 

  
 5 








 (b) Offering Documents. Each Offering Document with respect to an Offering Period shall
specify (through incorporation of the provisions of this Plan by reference or otherwise): 
 (i) the length of the Offering Period, which
period shall not exceed twenty-seven months; 
 (ii) the maximum number of Shares that may be purchased by any Eligible Employee during such
Offering Period, which, in the absence of a contrary designation by the Administrator, shall be 25,000 Shares; 
 (iii) such other
provisions as the Administrator determines are appropriate, subject to the Plan. 
  

	V.	ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION 

 (a)
Eligibility. Any Eligible Employee who shall be employed by the Company or a Designated Subsidiary on a given Enrollment Date for an Offering Period shall be eligible to participate in the Plan during such Offering Period, subject to the
requirements of this Section V and the limitations imposed by Section 423(b) of the Code. 
 (b) Enrollment in Plan. 

(i) Except as otherwise set forth in an Offering Document or determined by the Administrator, an Eligible Employee may become a Participant in
the Plan for an Offering Period by delivering a subscription agreement to the Company by such time prior to the Enrollment Date for such Offering Period (or such other date specified in the Offering Document) designated by the Administrator and in
such form as the Company provides. 
 (ii) Each subscription agreement shall designate a whole percentage of such Eligible Employee’s
Compensation to be withheld by the Company or the Designated Subsidiary employing such Eligible Employee on each payday during the Offering Period as payroll deductions under the Plan. An Eligible Employee may designate any whole percentage of
Compensation that is not less than 1% and not more than the maximum percentage specified by the Administrator in the applicable Offering Document (which percentage shall be 25% in the absence of any such designation) as payroll deductions. The
payroll deductions made for each Participant shall be credited to an account for such Participant under the Plan and shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company. 

(iii) A Participant may increase or decrease the percentage of Compensation designated in his or her subscription agreement, subject to the
limits of this Section V(b), or may suspend his or her payroll deductions, at any time during an Offering Period; provided, however, that the Administrator may limit the number of changes a Participant may make to his or her
payroll deduction elections during each Offering Period in the applicable Offering Document (and in the absence of any specific designation by the Administrator, a Participant shall be allowed one change to his or her payroll deduction elections
during each Offering Period). Any such change or suspension of payroll deductions shall be effective with the first full payroll period following five business days after the Company’s receipt of the new subscription agreement (or such shorter
or longer period as may be specified by the Administrator in the 

  
 6 








 
applicable Offering Document). In the event a Participant suspends his or her payroll deductions, such Participant’s cumulative payroll deductions prior to the suspension shall remain in his
or her account and shall be applied to the purchase of Shares on the next occurring Purchase Date and shall not be paid to such Participant unless he or she withdraws from participation in the Plan pursuant to Section VII. 

(iv) Except as otherwise set forth in an Offering Document or determined by the Administrator, a Participant may participate in the Plan only
by means of payroll deduction and may not make contributions by lump sum payment for any Offering Period. 
 (c) Payroll Deductions.
Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Offering Document, payroll deductions for a Participant shall commence on the first payroll following the Enrollment Date and shall end on the last payroll in the Offering Period to which the
Participant’s authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the Participant as provided in Section VII or suspended by the Participant or the Administrator as provided in Section V(b) and Section V(f), respectively. 

(d) Effect of Enrollment. A Participant’s completion of a subscription agreement will enroll such Participant in the Plan for each
subsequent Offering Period on the terms contained therein until the Participant either submits a new subscription agreement, withdraws from participation under the Plan as provided in Section VII or ceases to be an Eligible Employee. 

(e) Limitation on Purchase of Common Stock. An Eligible Employee may be granted rights under the Plan only if such rights, together
with any other rights granted to such Eligible Employee under “employee stock purchase plans” of the Company, any Parent or any Subsidiary, as specified by Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, do not permit such employee’s rights to
purchase stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary to accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value of such stock (determined as of the first day of the Offering Period during which such rights are granted) for each calendar
year in which such rights are outstanding at any time. This limitation shall be applied in accordance with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code. 

(f) Suspension of Payroll Deductions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of
the Code and Section V(e) or the other limitations set forth in this Plan, a Participant’s payroll deductions may be suspended by the Administrator at any time during an Offering Period. The balance of the amount credited to the account of
each Participant that has not been applied to the purchase of Shares by reason of Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, Section V(e) or the other limitations set forth in this Plan shall be paid to such Participant in one lump sum in cash as soon
as reasonably practicable after the Purchase Date. 
 (g) Foreign Employees. In order to facilitate participation in the Plan, the
Administrator may provide for such special terms applicable to Participants who are citizens or residents of a foreign jurisdiction, or who are employed by a Designated Subsidiary outside of the United States, as the Administrator may consider
necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom. Such special terms may not be more favorable than the terms of rights granted under the Plan to Eligible Employees who are residents of the United States.
Moreover, the Administrator may approve such supplements to, or amendments, 

  
 7 








 
restatements or alternative versions of, this Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such purposes without thereby affecting the terms of this Plan as in effect for any other
purpose. No such special terms, supplements, amendments or restatements shall include any provisions that are inconsistent with the terms of this Plan as then in effect unless this Plan could have been amended to eliminate such inconsistency without
further approval by the stockholders of the Company. 
 (h) Leave of Absence. During leaves of absence approved by the Company
meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-1(h)(2) under the Code, a Participant may continue participation in the Plan by making cash payments to the Company on his or her normal payday equal to his or her authorized payroll
deduction. 
  

	VI.	GRANT AND EXERCISE OF RIGHTS 


(a) Grant of Rights. On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period, each Eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period shall
be granted a right to purchase the maximum number of Shares specified under Section IV(b), subject to the limits in Section V(e), and shall have the right to buy, on each Purchase Date during such Offering Period (at the applicable
Purchase Price), such number of whole Shares as is determined by dividing (x) such Participant’s payroll deductions accumulated prior to such Purchase Date and retained in the Participant’s account as of the Purchase Date, by
(y) the applicable Purchase Price (rounded down to the nearest Share). The right shall expire on the last day of the Offering Period. 

(b) Exercise of Rights. On each Purchase Date, each Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions and any other additional payments
specifically provided for in the applicable Offering Document will be applied to the purchase of whole Shares, up to the maximum number of Shares permitted pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Offering Document, at the Purchase
Price. No fractional Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of rights granted under the Plan, unless the Offering Document specifically provides otherwise. Any cash in lieu of fractional Shares remaining after the purchase of whole Shares upon
exercise of a purchase right will be credited to a Participant’s account and carried forward and applied toward the purchase of whole Shares for the next following Offering Period. Shares issued pursuant to the Plan may be evidenced in such
manner as the Administrator may determine and may be issued in certificated form or issued pursuant to book-entry procedures. 
 (c) Pro
Rata Allocation of Shares. If the Administrator determines that, on a given Purchase Date, the number of Shares with respect to which rights are to be exercised may exceed (i) the number of Shares that were available for issuance under the
Plan on the Enrollment Date of the applicable Offering Period, or (ii) the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan on such Purchase Date, the Administrator may in its sole discretion provide that the Company shall make a pro rata
allocation of the Shares available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Purchase Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as it shall determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all Participants for whom
rights to purchase Common Stock are to be exercised pursuant to this Section VI on such Purchase Date, and shall either (x) continue all Offering Periods then in effect, or (y) terminate any or all Offering Periods then in effect
pursuant to Section IX. The Company may make pro rata allocation of the Shares available on the Enrollment Date of any applicable Offering Period 

  
 8 








 
pursuant to the preceding sentence, notwithstanding any authorization of additional Shares for issuance under the Plan by the Company’s stockholders subsequent to such Enrollment Date. The
balance of the amount credited to the account of each Participant that has not been applied to the purchase of Shares shall be paid to such Participant in one lump sum in cash as soon as reasonably practicable after the Purchase Date. 

(d) Withholding. At the time a Participant’s rights under the Plan are exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all
of the Common Stock issued under the Plan is disposed of, the Participant must make adequate provision for the Company’s federal, state, or other tax withholding obligations, if any, that arise upon the exercise of the right or the disposition
of the Common Stock. At any time, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation the amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding obligations. 

(e) Conditions to Issuance of Common Stock. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for,
or make any book entries evidencing, Shares purchased upon the exercise of rights under the Plan prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: 

(i) The admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges, if any, on which the Common Stock is then listed; and 

(ii) The completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or under the rulings or
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory body, that the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable; and 

(iii) The obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency that the Administrator shall, in its
absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and 
 (iv) The payment to the Company of all amounts that it is required to
withhold under federal, state or local law upon exercise of the rights, if any; and 
 (v) The lapse of such reasonable period of time
following the exercise of the rights as the Administrator may from time to time establish for reasons of administrative convenience. 
  

	VII.	WITHDRAWAL; CESSATION OF ELIGIBILITY 


(a) Withdrawal. A Participant may withdraw all but not less than all of the payroll deductions credited to his or her account and not
yet used to exercise his or her rights under the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the Company in a form acceptable to the Company no later than one week prior to the end of the Offering Period. All of the Participant’s payroll
deductions credited to his or her account during an Offering Period shall be paid to such Participant as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of notice of withdrawal and such Participant’s rights for the Offering Period shall be
automatically terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of Shares shall be made for such Offering Period. If a 

  
 9 








 
Participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions shall not resume at the beginning of the next Offering Period unless the Participant delivers to the Company a new subscription
agreement. 
 (b) Future Participation. A Participant’s withdrawal from an Offering Period shall not have any effect upon his or
her eligibility to participate in any similar plan that may hereafter be adopted by the Company or a Designated Subsidiary or in subsequent Offering Periods that commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the Participant
withdraws. 
 (c) Cessation of Eligibility. Upon a Participant’s ceasing to be an Eligible Employee for any reason, he or she
shall be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan pursuant to this Section VII and the payroll deductions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offering Period shall be paid to such Participant or, in the case of his or
her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section XII(d), as soon as reasonably practicable, and such Participant’s rights for the Offering Period shall be automatically terminated. 

 

	VIII.	ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK 


(a) Changes in Capitalization. Subject to Section VIII(c), in the event that the Administrator determines that any dividend or other
distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Stock, other securities, or other property), Change in Control, reorganization, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, combination, repurchase, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, or sale,
transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or sale or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or other
securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event, as determined by the Administrator, affects the Common Stock such that an adjustment is determined by the Administrator to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or
enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any outstanding purchase rights under the Plan, the Administrator shall make equitable adjustments, if any, to reflect
such change with respect to (i) the aggregate number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Section III(a) and the
limitations established in each Offering Document pursuant to Section IV(b) on the maximum number of Shares that may be purchased); (ii) the class(es) and number of shares and price per Share subject to outstanding rights; and
(iii) the Purchase Price with respect to any outstanding rights. 
 (b) Other Adjustments. Subject to Section VIII(c), in
the event of any transaction or event described in Section VIII(a) or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any affiliate of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any affiliate (including
without limitation any Change in Control), or of changes in Applicable Law or accounting principles, the Administrator, in its discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the
following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any right
under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in laws, regulations or principles: 
 (i) To
provide for either (x) termination of any outstanding right in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would have been obtained upon the exercise of such right had such right been currently exercisable or (y) the
replacement of such outstanding right with other rights or property selected by the Administrator in its sole discretion; 

  
 10 








 (ii) To provide that the outstanding rights under the Plan shall be assumed by the successor or
survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar rights covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and
kind of shares and prices; 
 (iii) To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to
outstanding rights under the Plan and/or in the terms and conditions of outstanding rights and rights that may be granted in the future; 

(iv) To provide that Participants’ accumulated payroll deductions may be used to purchase Common Stock prior to the next occurring
Purchase Date on such date as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion and the Participants’ rights under the ongoing Offering Period(s) shall be terminated; and 

(v) To provide that all outstanding rights shall terminate without being exercised. 

(c) No Adjustment Under Certain Circumstances. No adjustment or action described in this Section VIII or in any other provision of
the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause the Plan to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. 

(d) No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or
consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation.
Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Administrator under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no
adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of Shares subject to outstanding rights under the Plan or the Purchase Price with respect to any outstanding rights. 

 

	IX.	AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION 


(a) Amendment, Modification and Termination. The Administrator may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time and from time to
time; provided, however, that approval of the Company’s stockholders shall be required to amend the Plan to: (i) increase the aggregate number, or change the type, of shares that may be sold pursuant to rights under the Plan
under Section III(a) (other than an adjustment as provided by Section VIII); (ii) change the corporations or classes of corporations whose employees may be granted rights under the Plan; or (iii) change the Plan in any manner
that would cause the Plan to no longer be an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423(b) of the Code. 

  
 11 








 (b) Certain Changes to Plan. Without stockholder consent and without regard to whether any
Participant rights may be considered to have been adversely affected, to the extent permitted by Section 423 of the Code, the Administrator shall be entitled to change the Offering Periods, limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the
amount withheld from the Participant’s Compensation during an Offering Period, establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld from the Participant’s Compensation in a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit payroll
withholding in excess of the amount designated by a Participant in a properly completed subscription agreement in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company’s processing of payroll withholding elections, establish reasonable waiting
and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each Participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the Participant’s Compensation, and
establish such other limitations or procedures as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion to be advisable that are consistent with the Plan. 

(c) Actions In the Event of Unfavorable Financial Accounting Consequences. In the event the Administrator determines that the ongoing
operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Administrator may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify or amend the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence
including, but not limited to: 
 (i) altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period including an Offering Period underway at the time
of the change in Purchase Price; 
 (ii) shortening any Offering Period so that the Offering Period ends on a new Purchase Date, including
an Offering Period underway at the time of the Administrator action; and 
 (iii) allocating Shares. 

Such modifications or amendments shall not require stockholder approval or the consent of any Participant.

refunded as soon as practicable after such termination, without any interest thereon. 
  

	X.	TERM OF PLAN 

 The Plan shall be effective
on the Effective Date. The effectiveness of the Plan shall be subject to approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company within twelve months following the date the Plan is first approved by the Board. No right may be granted under the Plan
prior to such stockholder approval. No rights may be granted under the Plan during any period of suspension of the Plan or after termination of the Plan. 
  

	XI.	ADMINISTRATION 

 (a) Administrator. Unless otherwise determined by
the Board, the Administrator of the Plan shall be the Compensation Committee of the Board (or another committee or a 

  
 12 








 
subcommittee of the Board to which the Board delegates administration of the Plan) (such committee, the “Committee”). The Board may at any time vest in the Board any
authority or duties for administration of the Plan. 
 (b) Action by the Administrator. Unless otherwise established by the Board or
in any charter of the Administrator, a majority of the Administrator shall constitute a quorum. The acts of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present and, subject to Applicable Law and the Bylaws of the Company,
acts approved in writing by a majority of the Administrator in lieu of a meeting, shall be deemed the acts of the Administrator. Each member of the Administrator is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information
furnished to that member by any officer or other Employee, the Company’s independent certified public accountants, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company to assist in the administration of the
Plan. 
 (c) Authority of Administrator. The Administrator shall have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the
express provisions of the Plan: 
 (i) To determine when and how rights to purchase Common Stock shall be granted and the provisions of each
offering of such rights (which need not be identical). 
 (ii) To designate from time to time which Subsidiaries of the Company shall be
Designated Subsidiaries, which designation may be made without the approval of the stockholders of the Company. 
 (iii) To construe and
interpret the Plan and rights granted under it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its administration. The Administrator, in the exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan, in a
manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective. 
 (iv) To amend the Plan as provided in
Section IX. 
 (v) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as the Administrator deems necessary or expedient to
promote the best interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries and to carry out the intent that the Plan be treated as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code. 

(d) Decisions Binding. The Administrator’s interpretation of the Plan, any rights granted pursuant to the Plan, any subscription
agreement and all decisions and determinations by the Administrator with respect to the Plan are final, binding, and conclusive on all parties. 
  

	XII.	MISCELLANEOUS 

 (a) Restriction upon Assignment. A right granted
under the Plan shall not be transferable other than by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant. Except as provided in Section XII(d) hereof, a
right under the Plan may not be exercised to any extent except by the Participant. The Company shall not recognize and shall be under no duty to recognize any assignment or alienation of the Participant’s interest in the Plan, the
Participant’s rights under the Plan or any rights thereunder. 

  
 13 








 (b) Rights as a Stockholder. With respect to Shares subject to a right granted under the
Plan, a Participant shall not be deemed to be a stockholder of the Company, and the Participant shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder, until such Shares have been issued to the Participant or his or her nominee following
exercise of the Participant’s rights under the Plan. No adjustments shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash securities, or other property) or distribution or other rights for which the record date occurs prior to
the date of such issuance, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or as determined by the Administrator. 
 (c) Interest. No
interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions or contributions of a Participant under the Plan. 
 (d) Designation of Beneficiary.

 (i) A Participant may, in the manner determined by the Administrator, file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any
Shares and cash, if any, from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death subsequent to a Purchase Date on which the Participant’s rights are exercised but prior to delivery to such Participant of
such Shares and cash. In addition, a Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death prior to exercise of the
Participant’s rights under the Plan. If the Participant is married and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the Participant’s spouse as his or her beneficiary shall not be effective without the prior
written consent of the Participant’s spouse. 
 (ii) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant at any time by
written notice to the Company. In the event of the death of a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company shall deliver such Shares and/or
cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such Shares and/or cash to the spouse
or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate. 

(e) Notices. All notices or other communications by a Participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed
to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof. 

(f) Equal Rights and Privileges. Subject to Section V(g), all Eligible Employees will have equal rights and privileges under this
Plan so that this Plan qualifies as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code. Subject to Section V(g), any provision of this Plan that is inconsistent with Section 423 of the Code will,
without further act or amendment by the Company, the Board or the Administrator, be reformed to comply with the equal rights and privileges requirement of Section 423 of the Code. 

  
 14 








 (g) Use of Funds. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company under the Plan
may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions. 
 (h)
Reports. Statements of account shall be given to participating Eligible Employees at least annually, which statements shall set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the Purchase Price, the number of Shares purchased and the remaining cash
balance, if any. 
 (i) No Employment Rights. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to give any person (including any Eligible
Employee or Participant) the right to remain in the employ of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary or affect the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any person (including any Eligible Employee or
Participant) at any time, with or without cause. 
 (j) Notice of Disposition of Shares. Each Participant shall give prompt notice to
the Company of any disposition or other transfer of any Shares purchased upon exercise of a right under the Plan if such disposition or transfer is made: (i) within two years from the Enrollment Date of the Offering Period in which the Shares
were purchased or (ii) within one year after the Purchase Date on which such Shares were purchased. Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of
indebtedness or other consideration, by the Participant in such disposition or other transfer. 
 (k) Governing Law. The Plan and any
agreements hereunder shall be administered, interpreted and enforced under the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of laws thereof or of any other jurisdiction. 

(l) Electronic Forms. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law and in the discretion of the Administrator, an Eligible Employee may
submit any form or notice as set forth herein by means of an electronic form approved by the Administrator. Before the commencement of an Offering Period, the Administrator shall prescribe the time limits within which any such electronic form shall
be submitted to the Administrator with respect to such Offering Period in order to be a valid election.
