2020 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN (AS AMENDED)






1.                 
Purpose. The purpose of the Byrna Technologies Inc.
2020 Equity Incentive Plan is to increase stockholder value and advance the interests of the Company and its Affiliates by furnishing
economic incentives designed to attract, retain and motivate key personnel and to provide a means whereby directors, officers,
managers, employees, consultants and advisors of the Company and its Affiliates by providing a means for them to acquire and maintain
an equity interest in the Company, or be paid incentive compensation, which may (but need not) be measured by reference to the
value of Common Shares, thereby strengthening their commitment to the welfare of the Company and its Affiliates and aligning their
interests with those of the Company’s stockholders.


In connection with
the termination of the Company’s 2017 Stock Option Plan (the “Prior Plan”) and consistent with
the Company’s prior administrative practice, each option certificate evidencing a stock option granted under the Prior Plan
that remains outstanding as of the date of the termination of the Prior Plan (each such stock option, a “Prior Plan
Option”) shall be cancelled and replaced with an Award Agreement evidencing an equivalent Award under the Plan with
no change to any of the material provisions of the Prior Plan Option, including without limitation, the Date of Grant, the Exercise
Price, and the expiration of such Prior Plan Option, and such Prior Plan Option shall be deemed to be granted under the Plan and
shall become, and be, subject to the provisions of the Plan; provided, however, that to the extent that (i) the application
of any provision of the Plan to a Participant’s Prior Plan Option which was intended to be a stock option other than an “incentive
stock option” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) would be considered a “modification, extension or substitution”
(within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the applicable guidance thereunder) of the Prior Plan Option, or (ii) the application
of any provision of the Plan to a Participant’s Prior Plan Option which was intended to be an incentive stock option would
be considered a “modification, extension or renewal” (within the meaning of Section 424(h) of the Code and applicable
guidance thereunder) of the Prior Plan Option, such provision of the Plan shall not apply to such Prior Plan Option and the provision
of the Prior Plan, if any, shall apply.

exercise discretion to make any other determination and to take any other action that the Committee deems necessary or desirable
for the administration of this Plan. The Committee’s determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by
it selectively among persons who are eligible to receive, or actually receive, Awards. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Committee shall be entitled to make non-uniform and selective determinations, amendments and adjustments, and to enter into
non-uniform and selective Award Agreements.


(c)              
The Committee may, by resolution, expressly delegate to a special committee, consisting of one or more directors or other

types of Awards, to (i) designate officers and/or employees of the Company or any of its Affiliates to be recipients of Awards
under this Plan, and (ii) to determine the number of such Awards to be received by any such Participants; provided, however,
that (A) the resolution so authorizing such officer or officers shall specify the total number of Awards such officer or officers
may so award and the time period during which such officer or




    	 	9	 



    	 



    

officers may so award, and (B) such
delegation of duties and responsibilities may not be made with respect to grants of Awards to persons subject to Section 16 of
the Exchange Act. The acts of such delegates shall be treated as acts of the Committee, and such delegates shall report regularly
to the Board and the Committee regarding the delegated duties and responsibilities and any Awards granted. The Committee may not
authorize an officer to designate himself or herself as a recipient of any such rights or options.


(d)              
Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations, and other decisions
under or with respect to this Plan or any Award or any documents evidencing Awards granted pursuant to this Plan shall be within
the sole discretion of the Committee, may be made at any time and shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons or entities,
including, without limitation, the Company, any Affiliate, any Participant, any holder or beneficiary of any Award, and any stockholder
of the Company.

Board or the Committee (each such person, an “Indemnifiable
Person”) shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken or any determination made in good faith
with respect to this Plan or any Award hereunder. Each Indemnifiable Person shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company
against and from (and the Company shall pay or reimburse on demand for) any loss, cost, liability, or expense (including court
costs and attorneys’ fees) that may be imposed upon or incurred by such Indemnifiable Person in connection with or resulting
from any action, suit or proceeding to which such Indemnifiable Person may be a party or in which such Indemnifiable Person may
be involved by reason of any action taken or omitted to be taken under this Plan or any Award Agreement and against and from any
and all amounts paid by such Indemnifiable Person with the Company’s approval, in settlement thereof, or paid by such Indemnifiable
Person in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding against such Indemnifiable Person; provided,
that the Company shall have the right, at its own expense, to assume and defend any such action, suit or proceeding and once the
Company gives notice of its intent to assume the defense, the Company shall have sole control over such defense with counsel of
the Company’s choice. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be available to an Indemnifiable Person to the extent
that a final judgment or other final adjudication (in either case not subject to further appeal) binding upon such Indemnifiable
Person determines that the acts or omissions of such Indemnifiable Person giving rise to the indemnification claim resulted from
such Indemnifiable Person’s bad faith, fraud or willful criminal act or omission or that such right of indemnification is
otherwise prohibited by law or by the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws. The foregoing right of indemnification
shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which any such Indemnifiable Person may be entitled under the
Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, under the Committee’s charter, as a matter of law, or otherwise,
or any other power that the Company may have to indemnify such Indemnifiable Persons or hold them harmless.

Plan as of the Effective Date, shall be available for the grant of Awards under the Plan, all or any portion of which may be issued
pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options. Each Common Share subject to an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right will
reduce the number of Common Shares available for issuance by one share, and each Common Share underlying an Award of Restricted
Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Stock Bonus Awards and Performance Compensation Awards will reduce the number of Common Shares available
for issuance by one share.


(c)              
Common Shares underlying Awards under this Plan that are forfeited, cancelled, expire unexercised, or are settled in cash
shall be available again for Awards under this Plan at the same ratio at which they were previously granted. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the following Common Shares shall not be available again for Awards under the Plan: (i) shares tendered or held back
upon the exercise of an Option or settlement of an Award to cover the Exercise Price of an Award; (ii) shares that are used or
withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations of the Participant; and (iii) shares subject to a Stock Appreciation Right that
are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of the SAR upon exercise thereof.


(d)              
Awards that do not entitle the holder thereof to receive or purchase Common Shares shall not be counted against the aggregate
number of Common Shares available for Awards under the Plan.


(e)              
Common Shares delivered by the Company in settlement of Awards may be authorized and unissued shares, shares held in the
treasury of the Company, shares purchased on the open market or by private purchase, or any combination of the foregoing.


(f)               
Awards may, in the sole discretion of the Committee, be granted under the Plan in assumption of, or in substitution for,
outstanding awards previously granted by an entity acquired by the Company or with which the Company combines (“Substitute
Awards”). Substitute Awards shall not be counted against the aggregate number of Common Shares available for Awards
under the Plan; provided that, Substitute




    	 	11	 



    	 



    

Awards issued in connection with the
assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding options intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options shall be counted against
the aggregate number of Common Shares available for Incentive Stock Options under the Plan. Subject to applicable stock exchange
requirements, available shares under a shareholder-approved plan of an entity directly or indirectly acquired by the Company or
with which the Company combines (as appropriately adjusted to reflect such acquisition or transaction) may be used for Awards under
the Plan and shall not count against the aggregate number of Common Shares available for Awards under the Plan.


6.                 
Eligibility. Participation shall be limited to Eligible
Persons who have entered into an Award Agreement or who have received written notification from the Committee, or from a person
designated by the Committee, that they have been selected to participate in this Plan.


7.                 
Options.


(a)              
Generally. Each Option granted under this
Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement (whether in paper or electronic medium (including email or the posting on a web site
maintained by the Company or a third party under contract with the Company)), which agreements need not be identical. Each Option
so granted shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 7, and to such other conditions not inconsistent
with this Plan as may be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. All Options granted under this Plan shall be Nonqualified
Stock Options unless the applicable Award Agreement expressly states that the Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option.
Notwithstanding any designation of an Option, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of Common Shares with respect
to which Options designated as Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any Participant during any calendar
year (under all plans of the Company or any Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options shall be treated as Nonqualified
Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options shall be granted only to Eligible Persons who are employees of the Company and its Affiliates,
and no Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any Eligible Person who is ineligible to receive an Incentive Stock Option under
the Code. No Option shall be treated as an Incentive Stock Option unless this Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the
Company in a manner intended to comply with the stockholder approval requirements of Section 422(b)(1) of the Code; provided
that, any Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall not fail to be effective solely on account of a failure to obtain
such approval, but rather such Option shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option unless and until such approval is obtained.
In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the terms and conditions of such grant shall be subject to and comply with such rules
as may be prescribed by Section 422 of the Code. If for any reason an Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option (or any portion
thereof) shall not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, such Option or portion thereof
shall be regarded as a Nonqualified Stock Option appropriately granted under this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
shall have no liability to any Participant or any other person if an




    	 	12	 



    	 



    

Option designated as an Incentive Stock
Option fails to qualify as such at any time or if an Option is determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation”
within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the terms of such Option do not satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of
the Code.


(b)              
Exercise Price. The price at which a Common
Share may be purchased upon the exercise of an Option (the “Exercise Price”) shall not be less than 100%
of the Fair Market Value of such share determined as of the Date of Grant; provided, however, that in the case of
an Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who, at the time of the grant of such Option, owns (or is deemed to own pursuant
to Section 424(d) of the Code) shares representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of
the Company or any Affiliate, the Exercise Price per share shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per share on the
Date of Grant; provided, further, that the Committee may, in accordance with Applicable Law (including the applicable
provisions of Section 409A or 424 of the Code) designate an Exercise Price below Fair Market Value on the Date of Grant if the
Option is granted in substitution for an option previously granted by an entity that is acquired by or merged with the Company
or an Affiliate; provided, further, that notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Exercise Price
shall not be less than the par value per Common Share.


(c)              
Vesting and Expiration. Options shall vest
and become exercisable in such manner and on such date or dates determined by the Committee and as set forth in the applicable
Award Agreement, and shall expire after such period, not to exceed 10 years from the Date of Grant, as may be determined by the
Committee (the “Option Period”); provided,
however, that the Option Period shall not exceed five (5)
years from the Date of Grant in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who on the Date of Grant owns (or
is deemed to own pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) shares representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of
all classes of shares of the Company or any Affiliate; provided,
further, that notwithstanding any vesting dates set by the
Committee, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the exercisability of any Option at any time and for any reason.
Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement:


(i)                
an Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to one-third of the Common Shares subject to such Option on each
of the first three (3) anniversaries of the Date of Grant;


(ii)             
upon termination of employment or service of the Participant granted such Option, the unvested portion of such Option shall
expire, and the vested portion of such Option shall remain exercisable for:


(A)            
one (1) year following termination of employment or service by reason of such Participant’s death or Disability (with
the determination of Disability to be made by the Committee on a case by case basis), but in no event later than the expiration
of the Option Period;




    	 	13	 



    	 



    

(B)             
 for directors, officers and employees of the Company only, for three (3) months following termination of employment or
service by reason of such Participant’s Retirement, but in no event later than the expiration of the Option Period;


(C)             
three (3) months following termination of employment or service for any reason other than such Participant’s death,
Disability or Retirement, and other than such Participant’s termination of employment or service for Cause, but in no event
later than the expiration of the Option Period; and


(iii)           
both the unvested and the vested portion of an Option shall immediately expire upon the termination of the Participant’s
employment or service by the Company for Cause.


Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 7(c) and consistent with the requirements of Applicable Law, the Committee, in its
sole discretion, may extend the post-termination of employment period during which a Participant may exercise vested Options.


(d)              
Method of Exercise and Form of Payment. No
Common Shares shall be delivered pursuant to the exercise of an Option until payment in full of the aggregate Exercise Price therefor
is received by the Company and the Participant has paid to the Company an amount equal to any applicable federal, state, local
and/or foreign income and employment taxes required to be withheld. Options that have become exercisable may be exercised by delivery
of written or electronic notice of exercise to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Award Agreement accompanied by payment
of the aggregate Exercise Price. The aggregate Exercise Price shall be payable (i) in cash, by certified or bank check, or cash
equivalent; and (ii) by such other method as the Committee may permit in accordance with Applicable Law, in its sole discretion,
including without limitation: (A) in other property having a fair market value (as determined by the Committee in its discretion)
on the date of exercise equal to the aggregate Exercise Price; (B) if there is a public market for the Common Shares at such time,
by means of a broker-assisted “cashless exercise” pursuant to which the Company is delivered a copy of irrevocable
instructions to a stockbroker to sell the Common Shares otherwise deliverable upon the exercise of the Option and to deliver promptly
to the Company an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price, (C) by a “net exercise” method whereby the Company
withholds from the delivery of the Common Shares for which the Option was exercised that number of Common Shares having a Fair
Market Value equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for the Common Shares for which the Option was exercised, (D) any combination
of the foregoing, or (E) any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Committee. Any fractional Common Shares
shall be settled in cash.


(e)              
Notification upon Disqualifying Disposition of an Incentive
Stock Option. Each Participant awarded an Incentive Stock Option under this Plan shall notify the Company in writing
immediately after the date he makes a “disqualifying disposition” (as defined below) of all or any portion of the Common
Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Incentive Stock Option. A disqualifying disposition is any “disposition”




    	 	14	 



    	 



    

(within the meaning of Section 424 of
the Code and including, without limitation, any sale) of such Common Shares before the later of (i) two (2) years after the Date
of Grant of the Incentive Stock Option, or (ii) one (1) year after the date of exercise of the Incentive Stock Option. Such written
notice shall advise the Company of the occurrence of the disqualifying disposition and the price realized upon the disposition
of such Common Shares. The Company may, if determined by the Committee and in accordance with procedures established by the Committee,
retain possession of any Common Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option as agent for the applicable
Participant until the end of the period described in the preceding sentence.


(f)               
Compliance with Laws, etc. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event shall a Participant be permitted to exercise an Option in a manner that the Committee determines would
violate the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, if applicable, or any other Applicable Law.


8.                 
Stock Appreciation Rights.


(a)              
Generally. Each SAR granted under this Plan
shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement (whether in paper or electronic medium (including email or the posting on a web site maintained
by the Company or a third party under contract with the Company)), which agreements need not be identical. Each SAR so granted
shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 8, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with this
Plan as may be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Any Option granted under this Plan may include tandem SARs (i.e., SARs
granted in conjunction with an Award of Options under this Plan). The Committee also may award SARs to Eligible Persons independent
of any Option.


(b)              
Strike Price. The Strike Price for each SAR granted in conjunction with the Award of an Option shall
be the Exercise Price of the related Option, and the Strike Price of a SAR granted independent of an Option shall be the Fair Market
Value of a Common Share determined as of the Date of Grant; provided, however, that the Committee may, in accordance
with Applicable Law (including the applicable provisions of Section 409A of the Code) designate a Strike Price below Fair Market
Value on the Date of Grant if the SAR is granted in substitution for an appreciation right previously granted by an entity that
is acquired by or merged with the Company or an Affiliate.


(c)              
Vesting and Expiration. A SAR granted in connection
with an Option shall become exercisable and shall expire according to the same vesting schedule and expiration provisions as the
corresponding Option, and a SAR granted independent of an Option shall vest and become exercisable and shall expire in such manner
and on such date or dates determined by the Committee and shall expire after such period, not to exceed 10 years from the Date
of Grant, as may be determined by the Committee (each, the “SAR Period”); provided, however,
that notwithstanding any vesting dates set by the Committee, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the exercisability
of any SAR at any




    	 	15	 



    	 



    

time and for any reason. Unless otherwise
provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement:


(i)                
a SAR shall vest and become exercisable with respect to one-third of the Common Shares subject to such SAR on each of the
first three (3) anniversaries of the Date of Grant;


(ii)             
upon termination of employment or service of the Participant granted the SAR, the unvested portion of a SAR shall expire,
and the vested portion of such SAR shall remain exercisable for:


(A)            
one (1) year following termination of employment or service by reason of such Participant’s death or Disability (with
the determination of Disability to be made by the Committee on a case by case basis), but in no event later than the expiration
of the SAR Period;


(B)             
for directors, officers and employees of the Company only, for the remainder of the SAR Period following termination of
employment or service by reason of such Participant’s Retirement;


(C)             
three (3) months following termination of employment or service for any reason other than such Participant’s death,
Disability or Retirement, and other than such Participant’s termination of employment or service for Cause, but in no event
later than the expiration of the SAR Period; and


(iii)           
both the unvested and the vested portion of a SAR shall expire immediately upon the termination of the Participant’s
employment or service by the Company for Cause.


(d)              
Method of Exercise. SARs that have become
exercisable may be exercised by delivery of written or electronic notice of exercise to the Company in accordance with the terms
of the Award, specifying the number of SARs to be exercised and the Date of Grant of the SARs to be exercised. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if on the last day of the SAR Period (i) the Fair Market Value exceeds the Strike Price, (ii) the Participant has
not exercised the SAR or the corresponding Option (if applicable), and (iii) neither the SAR nor the corresponding Option (if applicable)
has expired, such SAR shall be deemed to have been exercised by the Participant on such last day of the SAR Period and the Company
shall make the appropriate payment therefor.


(e)              
Payment. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the Company
shall pay to the Participant an amount equal to the number of Common Shares subject to the SAR that are being exercised multiplied
by the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of one Common Share on the exercise date over the Strike Price, less an amount
equal to any applicable federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and employment taxes required to be withheld. The Company shall
pay such amount in cash, in Common Shares valued at Fair




    	 	16	 



    	 



    

Market Value, or any combination thereof,
as determined by the Committee. Any fractional Common Share shall be settled in cash.


9.                 
Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units.


(a)              
Generally. Each grant of Restricted Stock
and Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement (whether in paper or electronic medium (including email or
the posting on a web site maintained by the Company or a third party under contract with the Company)), which agreements need not
be identical. Each such grant shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 9, and to such other conditions
not inconsistent with this Plan as may be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability and other restrictions as the Committee may impose (including, for example,
limitations on the right to vote Restricted Stock or the right to receive dividends on the Restricted Stock). These restrictions
may lapse separately or in combination at such times, under such circumstances, in such installments, upon the satisfaction of
Performance Goals or otherwise, as the Committee determines at the time of the grant of an Award or thereafter.


(b)              
Restricted Stock Accounts; Escrow or Similar Arrangement.
Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, upon the grant of Restricted Stock, a book entry in a restricted account shall be
established in the Participant’s name at the Company’s transfer agent and, if the Committee determines that the Restricted
Stock shall be held by the Company or in escrow rather than held in such restricted account pending the release of the applicable
restrictions, the Committee may also require the Participant to execute and deliver to the Company (i) an escrow agreement satisfactory
to the Committee, if applicable, and (ii) the appropriate stock power (endorsed in blank) with respect to the Restricted Stock
covered by such agreement. If a Participant shall fail to execute an Award Agreement evidencing an Award of Restricted Stock and,
if applicable, an escrow agreement and blank stock power within the amount of time specified by the Committee, the Award shall
be null and void ab initio. Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 9 and the applicable Award Agreement,
the Participant generally shall have the rights and privileges of a stockholder as to such Restricted Stock, including without
limitation the right to vote such Restricted Stock and the right to receive dividends, if applicable. To the extent shares of Restricted
Stock are forfeited, any share certificates issued to the Participant evidencing such shares shall be returned to the Company,
and all rights of the Participant to such shares and as a stockholder with respect thereto shall terminate without further obligation
on the part of the Company.


(c)              
Restricted Stock Units. The terms and conditions of a grant of Restricted Stock Units shall be reflected
in an Award Agreement. No Common Shares shall be issued at the time a Restricted Stock Unit is granted, and the Company will not
be required to set aside funds for the payment of any such Award. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, a Participant
shall have none of the rights of a




    	 	17	 



    	 



    

stockholder (including, without limitation,
voting rights) with respect to Restricted Stock Units until such time as Common Shares are paid in settlement of such Awards. The
Committee may also grant Restricted Stock Units with a deferral feature, whereby settlement is deferred beyond the vesting date
until the occurrence of a future payment date or event set forth in an Award Agreement in a manner consistent with the applicable
requirements of Section 409A of the Code. At the discretion of the Committee, each Restricted Stock Unit (representing one Common
Share) may be credited with an amount equal to the cash and stock dividends paid by the Company in respect of one Common Share
(“Dividend Equivalents”). Dividend Equivalents shall be withheld by the Company and credited to the Participant’s
account, and interest may be credited on the amount of cash Dividend Equivalents credited to the Participant’s account at
a rate and subject to such terms as determined by the Committee in its discretion. Dividend Equivalents credited to a Participant’s
account and attributable to any particular Restricted Stock Unit (and earnings thereon, if applicable) shall be distributed in
cash or, at the discretion of the Committee, in Common Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such Dividend Equivalents
and earnings, if applicable, to the Participant upon settlement of such Restricted Stock Unit and, if such Restricted Stock Unit
is forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to such Dividend Equivalents.


(d)              
Vesting; Acceleration of Lapse of Restrictions.
The Restricted Period with respect to Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall lapse pursuant to the terms and conditions
set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement, the unvested portion
of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall terminate and be forfeited upon the termination of employment or service of
the Participant granted the applicable Award.


(e)              
Delivery of Restricted Stock and Settlement of Restricted
Stock Units. (i)(i) Upon the expiration of the Restricted Period
with respect to any shares of Restricted Stock, the restrictions set forth in the applicable Award Agreement shall be of no further
force or effect with respect to such shares, except as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. If an escrow arrangement is
used, upon such expiration, the Company shall deliver to the Participant, or his beneficiary, without charge, the share certificate
evidencing the shares of Restricted Stock that have not then been forfeited and with respect to which the Restricted Period has
expired (rounded down to the nearest full share). Dividends, if any, that may have been withheld by the Committee and attributable
to any particular share of Restricted Stock shall be distributed to the Participant in cash or, at the sole discretion of the Committee,
in shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends, upon the release of restrictions on
such shares of Restricted Stock and, if such shares of Restricted Stock are forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to such
dividends (except as otherwise set forth by the Committee in the applicable Award Agreement).


(ii)             
Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement, upon the expiration of the Restricted Period with respect
to the outstanding




    	 	18	 



    	 



    

Restricted Stock Units held by any Participant
and no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such expiration occurs, the Company
shall deliver a copy of irrevocable instructions to a stockbroker or other third party agent to (A) sell a sufficient number of
Common Shares on behalf of such Participant, in order to fully satisfy the Company’s tax withholding obligations with respect
to such Restricted Stock Units, and (B) hold the remainder of the Participant’s Common Shares with respect to such Restricted
Stock Units in an individual account with such stockbroker or other third party agent on behalf of, and for the benefit of, such
Participant.


(f)               
 Section 83(b) Election. Subject to compliance with Section 83 of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations,
a Participant may file an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to grants of Restricted Stock; provided,
however, that it shall be the sole responsibility of such Participant to complete and file such election in accordance with
and in the manner provided by Section 83 of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.83-2.


10.             
Stock Bonus Awards. The Committee may issue unrestricted
Common Shares, or other Awards denominated in Common Shares, under this Plan to Eligible Persons, either alone or in tandem with
other Awards, in such amounts as the Committee shall from time to time in its sole discretion determine. Each Stock Bonus Award
granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement (whether in paper or electronic medium (including email or the
posting on a web site maintained by the Company or a third party under contract with the Company)), which agreements need not be
identical. Each Stock Bonus Award so granted shall be subject to such conditions not inconsistent with this Plan as may be set
forth in the applicable Award Agreement.


11.             
Adjustments Upon Changes in Capital Structure and Similar Events.
In the event of changes in the outstanding Common Shares or in the capital structure of the Company by reason of any stock or extraordinary
cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, an extraordinary corporate transaction such as any recapitalization, reorganization,
merger, consolidation, combination, exchange, or other relevant change in capitalization occurring after the Date of Grant of any
Award, Awards granted under the Plan and any Award Agreements, the Exercise Price of Options and the Strike Price of Stock Appreciation
Rights, the maximum number of Common Shares subject to all Awards stated in Section 5 shall be equitably adjusted or substituted,
as to the number, price or kind of a Common Share or other consideration subject to such Awards to the extent necessary to preserve
the economic intent of such Award and to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of rights under such Award. In the case of
adjustments made pursuant to this Section 11, unless the Committee specifically determines that such adjustment is in the
best interests of the Company or its Affiliates, the Committee shall, in the case of Incentive Stock Options, ensure that any adjustments
under this Section 11 will not constitute a modification, extension or renewal of the Incentive Stock Options within the
meaning of Section 424(h)(3) of the Code and in the case of Nonqualified Stock Options, ensure that any adjustments under this
Section 11 will not constitute a modification of such




    	 	19	 



    	 



    

Nonqualified Stock Options within the
meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any adjustments made under this Section 11 shall be made in a manner which does not
adversely affect the exemption provided pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. The Company shall furnish each Participant
written notice of an adjustment hereunder and, upon notice, such adjustment shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes.


12.             
Effect of Change in Control. Notwithstanding Section 11, except as provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement
or otherwise, in connection with (i) a merger, amalgamation, or consolidation involving the Company in which the Company is
not the surviving corporation, (ii) a merger, amalgamation, or consolidation involving the Company in which the Company is
the surviving corporation but the holders of Common Shares receive securities of another corporation or other property or cash,
(iii) a Change in Control, or (iv) the reorganization, dissolution or liquidation of the Company (each, a “Corporate
Event”), all Awards outstanding on the effective date of such Corporate Event shall be treated in the manner described
in the definitive transaction agreement (or, in the event that the Corporate Event does not entail a definitive agreement to which
the Company is a party, in the manner determined by the Committee in its sole discretion), which agreement may provide, without
limitation, for one or more of the following:


(a)              
The assumption or substitution of any or all Awards in connection with such Corporate Event, in which case the Awards shall
be subject to the adjustment set forth in Section 11, and to the extent that such Awards vest subject to the achievement
of performance objectives or criteria, such objectives or criteria shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect the Corporate Event;


(b)              
The acceleration of vesting of any or all Awards, subject to the consummation of such Corporate Event;


(c)              
The cancellation of any or all Awards (whether vested or unvested) as of the consummation of such Corporate Event, together
with the payment to the Participants holding vested Awards (including any Awards that would vest upon the Corporate Event but for
such cancellation) so canceled of an amount in respect of cancellation based upon the per-share consideration being paid for the
Common Shares in connection with such Corporate Event, less, in the case of Options and SARs, the Exercise Price or Strike Price,
as applicable, (such amounts to be paid on substantially the same schedule and subject to substantially the same terms and conditions
as the consideration payable for the Common Shares in connection with the Corporate Event, unless otherwise determined by the Committee);
provided, however, that Participants holding Options or SARs shall be entitled to consideration in respect of cancellation
of such Awards only if the per-share consideration less the Exercise Price or Strike Price, as applicable, is greater than zero
dollars ($0), and to the extent that the per-share consideration is less than or equal to the Exercise Price or Strike Price, as
applicable, such Awards shall be canceled for no consideration;


(d)              
The cancellation of any or all Options and SARs (whether vested or




    	 	20	 



    	 



    

unvested) as of the consummation of
such Corporate Event; provided, that all Options and SARs to be so cancelled pursuant to this subsection (d) shall first
become exercisable for a period of at least 10 days prior to such Corporate Event, with any exercise during such period of any
unvested Options or SARs to be (i) contingent upon and subject to the occurrence of the Corporate Event, and (ii) effectuated
by such means as are approved by the Committee; and


(e)              
The replacement of any or all Awards (other than Awards that are intended to qualify as “stock rights” that
do not provide for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) with a cash incentive
program that preserves the value of the Awards so replaced (determined as of the consummation of the Corporate Event), with subsequent
payment of cash incentives subject to the same vesting conditions as applicable to the Awards so replaced and payment to be made
within 30 days of the applicable vesting date (or such later date on which the applicable consideration is payable for the Common
Shares in connection with the Corporate Event, unless otherwise determined by the Committee).


Payments to holders
pursuant to Section 12(c) shall be made in cash or, in the sole discretion of the Committee, in the form of such other consideration
necessary for a Participant to receive property, cash, or securities (or a combination thereof) as such Participant would have
been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of the transaction if the Participant had been, immediately prior to such transaction,
the holder of the number of Common Shares covered by the Award at such time (less any Exercise Price or Strike Price, as applicable).
In addition, in connection with any Corporate Event, prior to any payment or adjustment contemplated under this Section 12,
the Committee may require a Participant to (x) represent and warrant as to the unencumbered title to his or her Awards, (y) bear
such Participant’s pro-rata share of any post-closing indemnity obligations and be subject to the same post-closing purchase
price adjustments, escrow terms, offset rights, holdback terms, and similar conditions as the other holders of Common Shares, and
(z) deliver customary transfer documentation as reasonably determined by the Committee.


The Committee need
not take the same action or actions with respect to all Awards or portions thereof or with respect to all Participants. The Committee
may take different actions with respect to the vested and unvested portions of an Award.


13.             
Amendments and Termination.


(a)       Amendment and Termination of this Plan. The
Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate this Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided,
that (i) no amendment to the definition of Eligible Person in Section 2(q) shall be made without stockholder approval,
and (ii) no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without stockholder approval
if such approval is necessary to comply with Applicable Law; provided,
further, that any such amendment, alteration, suspension,
discontinuance or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant or any holder or beneficiary
of any Award theretofore




    	 	21	 



    	 



    

granted shall not to that extent be
effective without the prior written consent of the affected Participant, holder or beneficiary.


(b)       Amendment
of Award Agreements. The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or alter, suspend,
discontinue, cancel or terminate, any Award theretofore granted or the associated Award Agreement, prospectively or retroactively;
provided, however, that any such waiver, amendment,
alteration, suspension, discontinuance, cancellation or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of the
Participant with respect to such Award shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of the affected Participant; provided,
further, that without stockholder approval, except as otherwise permitted under Section 11, (i) no amendment
or modification may reduce the Exercise Price of any Option or the Strike Price of any SAR, (ii) the Committee may not cancel
any outstanding Option or SAR and replace it with a new Option or SAR, another Award or cash or take any action that would have
the effect of treating such Award as a new Award for tax or accounting purposes, and (iii) the Committee may not take any
other action that is considered a “repricing” for purposes of the stockholder approval rules of the applicable securities
exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the Common Shares are listed or quoted.


14.             
General.


(a)       Award Agreements. Each Award under this Plan
shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, which shall be delivered to the Participant (whether in paper or electronic medium (including
email or the posting on a web site maintained by the Company or a third party under contract with the Company)) and shall specify
the terms and conditions of the Award and any rules applicable thereto, including without limitation, the effect on such Award
of the death, Disability or termination of employment or service of a Participant, or of such other events as may be determined
by the Committee. Each Award Agreement shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. The Company’s failure to
specify any term of any Award in any particular Award Agreement shall not invalidate such term, provided such terms was duly adopted
by the Board or the Committee. Award Agreements authorized under the Plan may contain such other provisions not inconsistent with
the Plan, including, without limitation, restrictions upon the exercise of Awards, as the Committee may deem advisable.


(b)              
Nontransferability; Trading Restrictions.


(i)                
Each Award shall be exercisable only by a Participant during the Participant’s lifetime, or, if permissible under
Applicable Law, by the Participant’s legal guardian or representative. No Award may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached,
sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and
any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against
the Company or an Affiliate; provided, that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation,
pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.




    	 	22	 



    	 



    

(ii)             
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit Awards (other than Incentive Stock Options)
to be transferred by a Participant, with or without consideration, subject to such rules as the Committee may adopt consistent
with any applicable Award Agreement to preserve the purposes of this Plan, to: (A) any person who is a “family member”
of the Participant, as such term is used in the instructions to Form S-8 under the Securities Act (an “Immediate
Family Member”); (B) a trust solely for the benefit of the Participant and his or her Immediate Family Members;
(C) a partnership or limited liability company whose only partners or members are the Participant and his or her Immediate Family
Members; or (D) any other transferee as may be approved either (I) by the Board or the Committee in its sole discretion, or (II)
as provided in the applicable Award Agreement (each transferee described in clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) above is hereinafter
referred to as a “Permitted Transferee”);
provided, that the Participant shall provide the Committee
advance written notice describing the terms and conditions of the proposed transfer and the Committee shall notify the Participant
in writing that such a transfer would comply with the requirements of this Plan.


(iii)           
The terms of any Award transferred in accordance with Section 14(b)(ii) shall apply to the Permitted Transferee and
any reference in this Plan, or in any applicable Award Agreement, to a Participant shall be deemed to refer to the Permitted Transferee,
except that (A) Permitted Transferees shall not be entitled to transfer any Award, other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution; (B) Permitted Transferees shall not be entitled to exercise any transferred Option unless there shall be in effect
a registration statement on an appropriate form covering the Common Shares to be acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Option
if the Committee determines, consistent with any applicable Award Agreement, that such a registration statement is necessary or
appropriate; (C) the Committee or the Company shall not be required to provide any notice to a Permitted Transferee, whether or
not such notice is or would otherwise have been required to be given to the Participant under this Plan or otherwise; and (D) the
consequences of the termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate under the terms
of this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement shall continue to be applied with respect to the Participant, including, without
limitation, that an Option shall be exercisable by the Permitted Transferee only to the extent, and for the periods, specified
in this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.


(iv)            
The Committee shall have the right, either on an Award-by-Award basis or as a matter of policy for all Awards or one or
more classes of Awards, to condition the delivery of vested Common Shares received in connection with such Award on the Participant’s
agreement to such restrictions as the Committee may determine.


(c)              
Tax Withholding.


(i)                
A Participant shall be required to pay to the Company or any Affiliate, or the Company or any Affiliate shall have the right
and is hereby authorized to withhold, from any cash, Common Shares, other securities or other property deliverable




    	 	23	 



    	 



    

under any Award or from any compensation
or other amounts owing to a Participant, the amount (in cash, Common Shares, other securities or other property) of any required
withholding taxes in respect of an Award, its exercise, or any payment or transfer under an Award or under this Plan and to take
such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Committee or the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment
of such withholding taxes. In addition, the Committee, in its discretion, may make arrangements with a stockbroker or other third
party agent for the Participant to facilitate the payment of applicable income and self-employment taxes.


(ii)             
Without limiting the generality of Section 14(c)(i), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit a Participant
to satisfy, in whole or in part, the foregoing withholding obligations by (A) tendering a cash payment, (B) the delivery of Common
Shares (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest) owned by the Participant having an aggregate Fair Market
Value equal to the amount of such withholding obligations, or (C) authorizing the Company to withhold from the number of Common
Shares otherwise issuable or deliverable pursuant to the exercise or settlement of the Award a number of Common Shares with an
aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such withholding obligation (but no more than the maximum individual statutory
rate for the applicable tax jurisdiction).


(d)              
No Claim to Awards; No Rights to Continued Employment; Waiver.
No employee of the Company or an Affiliate, or other person, shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award under this Plan
or, having been selected for the grant of an Award, to be selected for a grant of any other Award. There is no obligation for uniformity
of treatment of Participants or holders or beneficiaries of Awards. The terms and conditions of Awards and the Committee’s
determinations and interpretations with respect thereto need not be the same with respect to each Participant and may be made selectively
among Participants, whether or not such Participants are similarly situated. Neither this 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 or an Affiliate, nor shall
it be construed as giving any Participant any rights to continued service on the Board. The Company or any of its Affiliates may
at any time dismiss a Participant from employment or discontinue any consulting relationship, free from any liability or any claim
under this Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Plan or any Award Agreement. By accepting an Award under this Plan,
a Participant shall thereby be deemed to have waived any claim to continued exercise or vesting of an Award or to damages or severance
entitlement related to non-continuation of the Award beyond the period provided under this Plan or any Award Agreement, notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary in any written employment or other agreement between the Company or its Affiliates and the Participant,
whether any such agreement is executed before, on or after the Date of Grant.


(e)              
International Participants. With respect to
Participants who reside or work outside of the United States of America, the Committee may in its sole discretion amend the terms
of this Plan or outstanding Awards (or establish a sub-plan) with respect




    	 	24	 



    	 



    

to such Participants in order to conform
such terms with the requirements of local law or to obtain more favorable tax or other treatment for such Participants, the Company
or its Affiliates.


(f)               
Designation and Change of Beneficiary. Unless
otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement, each Participant may file with the Committee a written designation of
one or more persons as the beneficiary(ies) who shall be entitled to receive the amounts payable with respect to an Award, if any,
due under this Plan upon his or her death. A Participant may, from time to time, revoke or change his or her beneficiary designation
without the consent of any prior beneficiary by filing a new designation with the Committee. The last such designation filed with
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 a 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.


(g)              
Termination of Employment/Service. Unless
determined otherwise by the Committee at any point following such event: (i) neither a temporary absence from employment or service
due to illness, vacation or leave of absence nor a transfer from employment or service with the Company to employment or service
with an Affiliate (or vice-versa) shall be considered a termination of employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate;
and (ii) if a Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates, but such Participant continues to
provide services to the Company and its Affiliates in a non-employee capacity (or vice-versa), such change in status shall not
be considered a termination of employment with the Company or an Affiliate for purposes of this Plan unless the Committee, in its
discretion, determines otherwise.


(h)              
No Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise
specifically provided in this Plan or any Award Agreement, no person shall be entitled to the privileges of ownership in respect
of Common Shares that are subject to Awards hereunder until such shares have been issued or delivered to that person.


(i)                
Government and Other Regulations.


(i)                
The obligation of the Company to settle Awards in Common Shares or other consideration shall be subject to Applicable Law
and to such approvals by governmental agencies as may be required. Notwithstanding any terms or conditions of any Award to the
contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to offer to sell or to sell, and shall be prohibited from offering to sell or
selling, any Common Shares pursuant to an Award unless such shares have been properly registered for sale pursuant to the Securities
Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other Applicable Law or unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel,
satisfactory to the Company, that such shares may be offered or sold without such registration pursuant to an available exemption
therefrom and the terms and conditions of such exemption have been fully




    	 	25	 



    	 



    

complied with. The Company shall be
under no obligation to register for sale under the Securities Act any of the Common Shares to be offered or sold under this Plan.
The Committee shall have the authority to provide that all certificates for Common Shares or other securities of the Company or
any Affiliate delivered under this Plan shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may
deem advisable under this Plan, the applicable Award Agreement, the federal securities laws, or the rules, regulations and other
requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which such
shares or other securities are then listed or quoted and any other Applicable Law, and, without limiting the generality of Section
9, the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, the Committee reserves the right to add any terms or provisions to
any Award granted under this Plan that it deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion in order that such Award complies
with the legal requirements of any governmental entity to whose jurisdiction the Award is subject.


(ii)             
The Committee may cancel an Award or any portion thereof if it determines, in its sole discretion, that legal or contractual
restrictions and/or blockage and/or other market considerations would make the Company’s acquisition of Common Shares from
the public markets, the Company’s issuance of Common Shares to the Participant, the Participant’s acquisition of Common
Shares from the Company and/or the Participant’s sale of Common Shares to the public markets, illegal, impracticable or inadvisable.
If the Committee determines to cancel all or any portion of an Award in accordance with the foregoing, unless doing so would violate
Section 409A of the Code, the Company shall pay to the Participant an amount equal to the excess of (A) the aggregate Fair Market
Value of the Common Shares subject to such Award or portion thereof canceled (determined as of the applicable exercise date, or
the date that the shares would have been vested or delivered, as applicable), over (B) the aggregate Exercise Price or Strike Price
(in the case of an Option or SAR, respectively) or any amount payable as a condition of delivery of Common Shares (in the case
of any other Award). Such amount shall be delivered to the Participant as soon as practicable following the cancellation of such
Award or portion thereof. The Committee shall have the discretion to consider and take action to mitigate the tax consequence to
the Participant in cancelling an Award in accordance with this clause.


(j)                
Payments to Persons Other Than Participants.
If the Committee shall find that any person to whom any amount is payable under this 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.




    	 	26	 



    	 



    

(k)              
 Nonexclusivity of this Plan. Neither the
adoption of this Plan by the Board nor the submission of this Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed
as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including,
without limitation, the granting of stock options or other equity-based awards otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements
may be either applicable generally or only in specific cases.


(l)                
No Trust or Fund Created. Neither this Plan
nor any Award granted hereunder shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship
between the Company or any Affiliate, on the one hand, and a Participant or other person or entity, on the other hand. No provision
of this Plan or any Award Agreement shall require the Company, for the purpose of satisfying any obligations under this Plan, to
purchase assets or place any assets in a trust or other entity to which contributions are made or otherwise to segregate any assets,
nor shall the Company maintain separate bank accounts, books, records or other evidence of the existence of a segregated or separately
maintained or administered fund for such purposes. Participants shall have no rights under this Plan other than as general unsecured
creditors of the Company, except that insofar as they may have become entitled to payment of additional compensation by performance
of services, they shall have the same rights as other employees under Applicable Law.


(m)            
Reliance on Reports. Each member of the Committee
and each member of the Board shall be fully justified in acting or failing to act, as the case may be, and shall not be liable
for having so acted or failed to act in good faith, in reliance upon any report made by the independent public accountant of the
Company and/or its Affiliates and/or any other information furnished in connection with this Plan by any agent of the Company or
the Committee or the Board, other than himself.


(n)              
Relationship to Other Benefits. No payment
under this Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit sharing, group insurance
or other benefit plan of the Company except as otherwise specifically provided in such other plan.


(o)              
Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions.


(p)              
Severability. If any provision of this Plan
or any Award or Award Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to
any person or entity or Award, or would disqualify this Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such
provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to Applicable Law in the manner that most closely reflects the original
intent of the Award or the Plan, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee,
materially altering the intent of this Plan or the Award, such provision shall be construed or deemed stricken as to




    	 	27	 



    	 



    

such jurisdiction, person or entity
or Award and the remainder of this Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect.


(q)              
Obligations Binding on Successors. The obligations
of the Company under this Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, amalgamation,
consolidation or other reorganization of the Company, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding to substantially
all of the assets and business of the Company.


(r)               
Expenses; Gender; Titles and Headings. The
expenses of administering this Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Affiliates. Masculine pronouns and other words of masculine
gender shall refer to both men and women. The titles and headings of the sections in this Plan are for convenience of reference
only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of this Plan, rather than such titles or headings shall control.


(s)               
Other Agreements. Notwithstanding the above, the Committee may require, as a condition to the grant of and/or
the receipt of Common Shares under an Award, that the Participant execute lock-up, stockholder or other agreements, as it may determine
in its sole and absolute discretion.


(t)                
Section 409A. The Plan and all Awards granted hereunder are intended to comply with, or otherwise be exempt
from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The Plan and all Awards granted under this Plan shall be administered, interpreted,
and construed in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Code to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of additional
taxes under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, in no event shall the Committee
exercise its discretion to accelerate the payment or settlement of an Award where such payment or settlement constitutes deferred
compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code unless, and solely to the extent that, such accelerated payment or
settlement is permissible under Section 1.409A-3(j)(4) of the Treasury Regulations. If a Participant is a “specified employee”
(within the meaning of Section 1.409A-1(i) of the Treasury Regulations) at any time during the 12-month period ending on the date
of his termination of employment, and any Award hereunder subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code is to be satisfied
on account of the Participant’s termination of employment, satisfaction of such Award shall be suspended until the date that
is six (6) months after the date of such termination of employment. While the Awards granted hereunder are intended to be structured
in a manner to avoid the imposition of any penalty taxes under Section 409A of the Code, in no event whatsoever shall the Company
or any Affiliate be liable for any additional tax, interest, or penalties that may be imposed on a Participant as a result of Section 409A
of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code or any similar state or local laws (other than
for withholding obligations or other obligations applicable to employers, if any, under Section 409A of the Code).




    	 	28	 



    	 



    

(u)              
 Section 16. It is the intent of the Company that the Plan satisfy, and be interpreted in a manner that satisfies,
the applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3 as promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act so that Participants will be entitled
to the benefit of Rule 16b-3, or any other rule promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and will not be subject to short-swing
liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, if the operation of any provision of the Plan would conflict with
the intent expressed in this Section 14(u), such provision to the extent possible shall be interpreted and/or deemed amended
so as to avoid such conflict.


(v)              
Payments. Participants shall be required to pay, to the extent required by Applicable Law, any amounts required
to receive Common Shares under any Award made under this Plan.
