SECTION 1.         GRANT OF OPTION.


 


1.1         Grant. The Company hereby grants to Employee an option (the "Option") to purchase the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to the number of Option Shares set forth above, at the Exercise Price per Share set forth above. The Option is subject to the terms of the InfuSystem Holdings, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein will have the meaning ascribed in the Plan. The Option is intended to be a Nonqualified Stock Option and not an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.


 


1.2         Consideration. The grant of the Option is made in consideration of the services to be rendered by Employee to the Company.


 


SECTION 2.         VESTING


 


2.1         Vesting Schedule. The Option will become vested and exercisable with respect to [INSERT NUMBER] of the total number of Option Shares on [INSERT SCHEDULE] until the Option is completely vested. The unvested portion of the Option will not be exercisable on or after Employee's termination of Continuous Service.


 


2.2         Expiration. The Option will expire and may not be exercised after the Expiration Date set forth above.


 


SECTION 3.         TERMINATION OF CONTINUOUS SERVICE.


 


3.1         Termination of Continuous Service for Reason other than Death or for Cause. If Employee's Continuous Service is terminated for any reason other than death or for Cause, Employee may exercise the vested portion of the Option, but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (a) the date three months following the termination of the eligible Employee's Continuous Service or (b) the Expiration Date of the Option.


 


3.2         Termination of Continuous Service due to Death. If Employee's Continuous Service terminates as a result of Employee's death, or Employee dies within the period following termination of Employee's Continuous Service during which the vested portion of the Option remains exercisable, the vested portion of the Option may be exercised by Employee's estate, by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance or by the person designated to exercise the Option upon Employee's death, but only within the time period ending on the earlier of (a) the date one year following Employee's death or (b) the Expiration Date of the Option.

3.3         Termination of Continuous Service by Company for Cause. If Employee is terminated from Continuous Service by Company for Cause, the Option (whether vested or unvested) shall immediately terminate and cease to be exercisable.


 


3.4         Extension of Termination Date. If following Employee's termination of Continuous Service for any reason the exercise of the Option is prohibited because the exercise of the Option would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act or any other state or federal securities law or the rules of any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system, then the expiration of the Option shall be tolled until the date that is the earlier of the (1) Expiration Date of the Option, or (2) expiration of a period after termination of the Employee’s Continuous Service that is three months after the end of the period during which the exercise of the Option would be in violation of such registration or other securities law requirements or the Company’s trading restrictions.


 


SECTION 4.         MANNER OF EXERCISE.


 


4.1        Election to Exercise. To exercise the Option, Employee (or in the case of exercise after Employee's death or incapacity, Employee's executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must deliver to the Company an executed stock option exercise agreement in such form as is approved by the Committee from time to time (the "Exercise Agreement"), which shall set forth, inter alia:


 


	 	
			(a)

				
			Employee's election to exercise the Option;

			



 


	 	
			(b)

				
			the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased;

			



 


	 	
			(c)

				
			any restrictions imposed on the shares; and

			



 


	 	
			(d)

				
			any representations, warranties and agreements regarding Employee’s investment intent and access to information as may be required by the Company to comply with applicable securities laws.

			



 


If someone other than Employee exercises the Option, then such person must submit documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company verifying that such person has the legal right to exercise the Option.


 


4.2         Payment of Exercise Price. The entire Exercise Price of the Option shall be payable in full at the time of exercise to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations, either:


 


	 	
			(a)

				
			by certified or bank check at the time the Option is exercised;

			



 


	 	
			(b)

				
			by delivery to the Company of other shares of Common Stock, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, with a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the Exercise Price (or portion thereof) due for the number of shares being acquired, or by means of attestation whereby Employee identifies for delivery specific shares that have a Fair Market Value on the date of attestation equal to the Exercise Price (or portion thereof) and receives a number of shares equal to the difference between the number of shares thereby purchased and the number of identified attestation shares (a "Stock for Stock Exchange");

			



 





2










 








 


	 	
			(c)

				
			by reducing the number of shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of such Option by a number of shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Exercise Price at the time of exercise;

			



 


	 	
			(d)

				
			in the Committee's sole discretion, through a "cashless exercise program" established with a broker;

			



 


	 	
			(e)

				
			by any combination of the foregoing methods; or

			



 


	 	
			(f)

				
			in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Committee.

			



 


4.3         Withholding. Prior to the issuance of shares upon the exercise of the Option, Employee must make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay or provide for any applicable federal, state, and local withholding obligations of the Company. Employee may satisfy any federal, state, or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise of the Option by any of the following means:


 


	 	
			(a)

				
			tendering a cash payment;

			



 


	 	
			(b)

				
			authorizing the Company to withhold shares of Common Stock from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to Employee as a result of the exercise of the Option; provided, however, that no shares of Common Stock are withheld with a value exceeding the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law; or

			



 


	 	
			(c)

				
			delivering to the Company previously owned and unencumbered shares of Common Stock of the Company.

			



 


4.4         Issuance of Shares. Provided that the Exercise Agreement and payment are in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall issue the shares of Common Stock registered in the name of Employee, Employee's authorized assignee, or Employee's legal representative, and shall deliver certificates representing the shares with the appropriate legends affixed thereto.


 


SECTION 5.         NO RIGHTS TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT OR AS STOCKHOLDER.


 


Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall confer upon Employee any right to be retained, in any position, as an Employee of the Company. Further, nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall be construed to limit the discretion of the Company to terminate Employee's Continuous Service at any time, with or without cause. Employee shall not have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock subject to the Option prior to the date of exercise of the Option.


 


SECTION 6.         TRANSFERABILITY.


 


The Option is not transferable by Employee other than to a designated beneficiary upon Employee's death or by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during Employee’s lifetime only by him or her. No assignment or transfer of the Option, or the rights represented thereby, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise (except to a designated beneficiary upon death or by will or the laws of descent or distribution) will vest in the assignee or transferee any interest or right herein whatsoever, but immediately upon such assignment or transfer the Option will terminate and become of no further effect.

SECTION 7.         CHANGE IN CONTROL.


 


7.1         Acceleration of Vesting. In the event of a Change in Control, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, the Option shall become immediately vested and exercisable with respect to 100% of the shares subject to the Option. To the extent practicable, such acceleration of vesting and exercisability shall occur in a manner and at a time which allows Employee the ability to participate in the Change in Control with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option.


 


7.2         Cash-out. In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may, in its discretion and upon at least ten (10) days' advance notice to Employee, cancel the Option and pay to Employee the value of the Option based upon the price per share of Common Stock received or to be received by other stockholders of the Company in the event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of a Change in Control the Exercise Price of the Option equals or exceeds the price paid for a share of Common Stock in connection with the Change in Control, the Committee may cancel the Option without the payment of consideration therefor.


 


SECTION 8.         ADJUSTMENTS.


 


The shares of Common Stock subject to the Option may be adjusted or terminated in any manner as contemplated by Section 15 of the Plan.


 


SECTION 9.         TAX LIABILITY AND WITHHOLDING.


 


Notwithstanding any action the Company takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, or other tax-related withholding ("Tax-Related Items"), the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains Employee's responsibility and the Company: (a) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with the grant, vesting, or exercise of the Option or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired on exercise; and (b) does not commit to structure the Option to reduce or eliminate Employee's liability for Tax-Related Items.


 


SECTION 10.         COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.


 


The exercise of the Option and the issuance and transfer of shares of Common Stock shall be subject to compliance by the Company and Employee with all applicable requirements of federal and state securities laws and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange on which the Company's shares of Common Stock may be listed. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued pursuant to this Option unless and until any then applicable requirements of state or federal laws and regulatory agencies have been fully complied with to the satisfaction of the Company and its counsel. Employee understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the shares of Common Stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission or any stock exchange to effect such compliance.


 


SECTION 11.         NOTICES.


 


Any notice required to be delivered to the Company under this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Controller of the Company at the Company's principal corporate offices. Any notice required to be delivered to Employee under this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to Employee at Employee's address as shown in the records of the Company. Either party may designate another address in writing (or by such other method approved by the Company) from time to time.
