Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units shall lapse, (ii) the performance goals and periods applicable to Awards, (iii) the

(b) Shares issued under the
Plan may, in whole or in part, be authorized but unissued Shares or Shares that shall have been or may be reacquired by the Company in
the open market, in private transactions or otherwise. If an Award entitles the Participant to receive or purchase Shares, the number
of Shares covered by such Award or to which such Award relates shall be counted on the date of grant of such Award against the aggregate
number of Shares available for granting Awards under the Plan. If any Shares subject to an Award are forfeited, cancelled, exchanged
or surrendered or if an Award otherwise terminates or expires without a distribution of shares to the Participant, the Shares with respect
to such Award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture, cancellation, exchange, surrender, termination or expiration, again be available
for granting Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Shares surrendered or withheld as payment of either the Exercise Price
of an Award (including Shares otherwise underlying a Share Appreciation Right that are retained by the Company to account for the Exercise
Price of such Share Appreciation Right) and/or withholding taxes in respect of an Award shall no longer be available for grant under
the Plan. In addition, (i) to the extent an Award is denominated in shares of Common Stock, but paid or settled in cash, the number
of shares of Common Stock with respect to which such payment or settlement is made shall again be available for grants of Awards pursuant
to the Plan and (ii) shares of Common Stock underlying Awards that can only be settled in cash shall not be counted against the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for Awards under the Plan. Upon the exercise of any Award granted in tandem with
any other Awards, such related Awards shall be cancelled to the extent of the number of Shares as to which the Award is exercised and,
notwithstanding the foregoing, such number of shares shall no longer be available for grant under the Plan.


 


(c) No more than 5,600,000
Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of ISOs.


 


(d) No Participant who is
a non-employee director of the Company shall be granted Awards during any calendar year that, when aggregated with such non-employee
director’s cash fees with respect to such calendar year, exceed $500,000 in total value (with Cash Awards or other cash fees
measured for this purpose at their value upon payment and any other Awards measured for this purpose at their grant date fair value
as determined for the Company’s financial reporting purposes).


 


(e) Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in the Plan except for Section 12 of the Plan, any Awards granted under the Plan (other than such Awards representing
a maximum of five percent (5%) of the Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof) shall be granted subject
to a minimum vesting period of at least twelve (12) months.

reserved for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 4, (ii) the kind, number of securities subject to, and the Exercise Price
subject to outstanding Options and Share Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan, (iii) the kind, number and purchase price of
Shares or other securities or the amount of cash or amount or type of other property subject to outstanding Restricted Shares, Restricted
Stock Units or Other Share-Based Awards granted under the Plan; and/or (iv) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including,
without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto); provided, however, that any fractional
shares resulting from the adjustment shall be eliminated. Such other equitable substitutions or adjustments shall be made as may be determined
by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in connection with a Change in Capitalization,
the Administrator may provide, in its sole discretion, but subject in all events to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, for
the cancellation of any outstanding Award granted hereunder in exchange for payment in cash or other property having an aggregate Fair
Market Value equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares, cash or other property covered by such Award, reduced by the aggregate Exercise
Price or purchase price thereof, if any; provided, however, that if the Exercise Price or purchase price of any outstanding
Award is equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock, cash or other property covered by such Award,
the Administrator may cancel such Award without the payment of any consideration to the Participant. Further, without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, with respect to Awards subject to foreign laws, adjustments made hereunder shall be made in compliance with applicable
requirements. Except to the extent determined by the Administrator, any adjustments to ISOs under this Section 5 shall be made only to
the extent not constituting a “modification” within the meaning of Section 424(h)(3) of the Code. The Administrator’s
determinations pursuant to this Section 5 shall be final, binding and conclusive.


 


Section
6. Eligibility.


 


The Participants in the Plan

Section

(a) General. Options
granted under the Plan shall be designated as Nonqualified Stock Options or ISOs. Each Participant who is granted an Option shall enter
into an Award Agreement with the Company, containing such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, in its sole discretion,
including, among other things, the Exercise Price of the Option, the term of the Option and provisions regarding exercisability of the
Option, and whether the Option is intended to be an ISO or a Nonqualified Stock Option (and in the event the Award Agreement has no such
designation, the Option shall be a Nonqualified Stock Option). The provisions of each Option need not be the same with respect to each
Participant. More than one Option may be granted to the same Participant and be outstanding concurrently hereunder. Options granted under
the Plan shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7 and shall contain such additional terms and conditions,
not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.


 


(b) Exercise Price.
The Exercise Price of Shares purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion at the time
of grant, but in no event shall the exercise price of an Option be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a
share of Common Stock on the date of grant.


 


(c) Option Term. The
maximum term of each Option shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Option shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the
date such Option is granted. Each Option’s term is subject to earlier expiration pursuant to the applicable provisions in the Plan
and the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 4(e) of the Plan, the Administrator shall have the authority
to accelerate the exercisability of any outstanding Option at such time and under such circumstances as the Administrator, in its sole
discretion, deems appropriate.


 




    	 	-8-	 



     


    

 


(d) Exercisability.
Each Option shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions, including the attainment of performance
goals, as shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement. The Administrator may also provide that any Option
shall be exercisable only in installments, and the Administrator may waive such installment exercise provisions at any time, in whole
or in part, based on such factors as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion.


 


(e) Method of Exercise.
Options may be exercised in whole or in part by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of whole Shares
to be purchased, accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares so purchased in cash or its equivalent,
as determined by the Administrator. As determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, with respect to any Option or category
of Options, payment in whole or in part may also be made (i) by means of consideration received under any cashless exercise procedure
approved by the Administrator (including the withholding of Shares otherwise issuable upon exercise), (ii) in the form of unrestricted
Shares already owned by the Participant which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price
of the Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised, (iii) any other form of consideration approved by the Administrator and
permitted by Applicable Laws or (iv) any combination of the foregoing.


 


(f) ISOs. The terms
and conditions of ISOs granted hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 422 of the Code and the terms, conditions, limitations
and administrative procedures established by the Administrator from time to time in accordance with the Plan. At the discretion of the
Administrator, ISOs may be granted only to an employee of the Company, its “parent corporation” (as such term is defined
in Section 424(e) of the Code) or a Subsidiary of the Company.


 


(1) ISO Grants to 10%
Stockholders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, if an ISO is granted to a Participant who owns shares representing
more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of shares of the Company, its “parent corporation” (as such
term is defined in Section 424(e) of the Code) or a Subsidiary of the Company, the term of the ISO shall not exceed five (5) years from
the time of grant of such ISO and the Exercise Price shall be at least one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of
the Shares on the date of grant.


 


(2) $100,000 Per Year
Limitation For ISOs. To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined on the date of grant) of the Shares for which ISOs
are exercisable for the first time by any Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company) exceeds $100,000, such
excess ISOs shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options.


 


(3) Disqualifying Dispositions.
Each Participant awarded an ISO under the Plan shall notify the Company in writing immediately after the date the Participant makes a
“disqualifying disposition” of any Share acquired pursuant to the exercise of such ISO. A “disqualifying disposition”
is any disposition (including any sale) of such Shares before the later of (i) two years after the date of grant of the ISO and
(ii) one year after the date the Participant acquired the Shares by exercising the ISO. The Company may, if determined by the Administrator
and in accordance with procedures established by it, retain possession of any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO as agent
for the applicable Participant until the end of the period described in the preceding sentence, subject to complying with any instructions
from such Participant as to the sale of such Shares.


 


(g) Rights as Stockholder.
A Participant shall have no rights to dividends, dividend equivalents or distributions or any other rights of a stockholder with respect
to the Shares subject to an Option until the Participant has given written notice of the exercise thereof, and has paid in full for such
Shares and has satisfied the requirements of Section 15 hereof.


 


(h) Termination of Employment
or Service. Treatment of an Option upon termination of employment of a Participant shall be provided for by the Administrator in
the Award Agreement.


 


(i) Other Change in Employment
or Service Status. An Option shall be affected, both with regard to vesting schedule and termination, by leaves of absence, including
unpaid and un-protected leaves of absence, changes from full-time to part-time employment, partial Disability or other changes in the
employment status or service status of a Participant, in the discretion of the Administrator.

Section
8. Share Appreciation Rights.


 


(a) General. Share Appreciation
Rights may be granted either alone (“Free Standing Rights”) or in conjunction with all or part of any Option granted
under the Plan (“Related Rights”). Related Rights may be granted either at or after the time of the grant of such
Option. The Administrator shall determine the Eligible Recipients to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Share Appreciation
Rights shall be made. Each Participant who is granted a Share Appreciation Right shall enter into an Award Agreement with the Company,
containing such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, in its sole discretion, including, among other things, the
number of Shares to be awarded, the Exercise Price per Share, and all other conditions of Share Appreciation Rights. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no Related Right may be granted for more Shares than are subject to the Option to which it relates. The provisions of
Share Appreciation Rights need not be the same with respect to each Participant. Share Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan shall
be subject to the following terms and conditions set forth in this Section 8 and shall contain such additional terms and conditions,
not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable, as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.


 


(b) Awards; Rights as Stockholder.
A Participant shall have no rights to dividends or any other rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock, if any,
subject to a Stock Appreciation Right until the Participant has given written notice of the exercise thereof and has satisfied the requirements
of Section 15 hereof.


 


(c) Exercise Price.
The Exercise Price of Shares purchasable under a Share Appreciation Rights shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion
at the time of grant, but in no event shall the exercise price of a Share Appreciation Rights be less than one hundred percent (100%)
of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant.


 


(d) Exercisability.


 


(1) Share Appreciation Rights
that are Free Standing Rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined
by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement.


 


(2) Share Appreciation Rights
that are Related Rights shall be exercisable only at such time or times and to the extent that the Options to which they relate shall
be exercisable in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 hereof and this Section 8 of the Plan.


 


(e) Payment Upon Exercise.


 


(1) Upon the exercise of
a Free Standing Right, the Participant shall be entitled to receive up to, but not more than, that number of Shares equal in value to
the excess of the Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise over the Exercise Price per share specified in the Free Standing Right
multiplied by the number of Shares in respect of which the Free Standing Right is being exercised.


 


(2) A Related Right may be
exercised by a Participant by surrendering the applicable portion of the related Option. Upon such exercise and surrender, the Participant
shall be entitled to receive up to, but not more than, that number of Shares equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value as
of the date of exercise over the Exercise Price specified in the related Option multiplied by the number of Shares in respect of which
the Related Right is being exercised. Options which have been so surrendered, in whole or in part, shall no longer be exercisable to
the extent the Related Rights have been so exercised.


 


(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Administrator may determine to settle the exercise of a Share Appreciation Right in cash (or in any combination of Shares and cash).


 


(f) Termination of Employment
or Service. Treatment of an Share Appreciation Right upon termination of employment of a Participant shall be provided for by the
Administrator in the Award Agreement.


 




    	 	-10-	 



     


    

 


(g) Term.


 


(1) The term of each Free
Standing Right shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Free Standing Right shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the
date such right is granted.


 


(2) The term of each Related
Right shall be the term of the Option to which it relates, but no Related Right shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the
date such right is granted.


 


(h) Other Change in Employment
or Service Status. Share Appreciation Rights shall be affected, both with regard to vesting schedule and termination, by leaves of
absence, including unpaid and un-protected leaves of absence, changes from full-time to part-time employment, partial Disability or other
changes in the employment or service status of a Participant, in the discretion of the Administrator.


 


Section
9. Restricted Shares and Restricted Stock Units.


 


(a) General. Restricted
Shares or Restricted Stock Units may be issued under the Plan. The Administrator shall determine the Eligible Recipients to whom, and
the time or times at which, Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units shall be made. Each Participant who is granted Restricted Shares
or Restricted Stock Units shall enter into an Award Agreement with the Company, containing such terms and conditions as the Administrator
shall determine, in its sole discretion, including, among other things, the number of Shares to be awarded; the price, if any, to be
paid by the Participant for the acquisition of Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units; the period of time restrictions, performance
goals or other conditions that apply to Transferability, delivery or vesting of such Awards (the “Restricted Period”);
and all other conditions applicable to the Restricted Shares and Restricted Stock Units. If the restrictions, performance goals or conditions
established by the Administrator are not attained, a Participant shall forfeit his or her Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units,
in accordance with the terms of the grant. The provisions of the Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units need not be the same with
respect to each Participant.


 


(b) Awards and Certificates.
Except as otherwise provided below in Section 9(c), (i) each Participant who is granted an Award of Restricted Shares may, in the
Company’s sole discretion, be issued a share certificate in respect of such Restricted Shares; and (ii) any such certificate
so issued shall be registered in the name of the Participant, and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions
and restrictions applicable to any such Award. The Company may require that the share certificates, if any, evidencing Restricted Shares
granted hereunder be held in the custody of the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that, as a condition of
any Award of Restricted Shares, the Participant shall have delivered a share transfer form, endorsed in blank, relating to the Shares
covered by such Award. Certificates for shares of unrestricted Common Stock may, in the Company’s sole discretion, be delivered
to the Participant only after the Restricted Period has expired without forfeiture in such Restricted Stock Award. With respect to Restricted
Stock Units to be settled in Shares, at the expiration of the Restricted Period, share certificates in respect of the shares of Common
Stock underlying such Restricted Stock Units may, in the Company’s sole discretion, be delivered to the Participant, or his legal
representative, in a number equal to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units Award. Notwithstanding
anything in the Plan to the contrary, any Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units to be settled in Shares (at the expiration of the
Restricted Period, and whether before or after any vesting conditions have been satisfied) may, in the Company’s sole discretion,
be issued in uncertificated form. Further, notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, with respect to Restricted Stock Units,
at the expiration of the Restricted Period, Shares, or cash, as applicable, shall promptly be issued (either in certificated or uncertificated
form) to the Participant, unless otherwise deferred in accordance with procedures established by the Company in accordance with Section
409A of the Code, and such issuance or payment shall in any event be made within such period as is required to avoid the imposition of
a tax under Section 409A of the Code.


 




    	 	-11-	 



     


    

 


(c) Restrictions and Conditions.
The Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Section 9 shall be subject to the following restrictions and
conditions and any additional restrictions or conditions as determined by the Administrator at the time of grant or, subject to Section
409A of the Code where applicable, thereafter:


 


(1) The Administrator may,
in its sole discretion, provide for the lapse of restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions in whole
or in part based on such factors and such circumstances as the Administrator may determine, in its sole discretion, including, but not
limited to, the attainment of certain performance goals, the Participant’s termination of employment or service with the Company
or any Affiliate thereof, or the Participant’s death or Disability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change in Control, the
outstanding Awards shall be subject to Section 12 hereof.


 


(2) Except as provided in
the applicable Award Agreement, the Participant shall generally have the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to Restricted
Shares during the Restricted Period; provided, however, that dividends declared during the Restricted Period with respect
to an Award, shall only become payable if (and to the extent) the underlying Restricted Shares vest. Except as provided in the applicable
Award Agreement, the Participant shall generally not have the rights of a stockholder with respect to Shares subject to Restricted Stock
Units during the Restricted Period; provided, however, that, subject to Section 409A of the Code, an amount equal to dividends
declared during the Restricted Period with respect to the number of Shares covered by Restricted Stock Units shall, unless otherwise
set forth in an Award Agreement, be paid to the Participant at the time (and to the extent) Shares in respect of the related Restricted
Stock Units are delivered to the Participant. Certificates for Shares of unrestricted Common Stock may, in the Company’s sole discretion,
be delivered to the Participant only after the Restricted Period has expired without forfeiture in respect of such Restricted Shares
or Restricted Stock Units, except as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall otherwise determine.


 


(3) The rights of Participants
granted Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units upon termination of employment or service as a director, independent contractor or
consultant to the Company or to any Affiliate thereof terminates for any reason during the Restricted Period shall be set forth in the
Award Agreement.


 


(d) Form of Settlement.
The Administrator reserves the right in its sole discretion to provide (either at or after the grant thereof) that any Restricted Stock
Unit represent the right to receive the amount of cash per unit that is determined by the Administrator in connection with the Award.


 


Section
10. Other Share-Based Awards.


 


Other Share-Based Awards may
be issued under the Plan. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall have sole and complete authority to determine
the individuals to whom and the time or times at which such Other Share-Based Awards shall be granted. Each Participant who is granted
an Other Share-Based Award shall enter into an Award Agreement with the Company, containing such terms and conditions as the Administrator
shall determine, in its sole discretion, including, among other things, the number of shares of Common Stock to be granted pursuant to
such Other Share-Based Awards, or the manner in which such Other Share-Based Awards shall be settled (e.g., in shares of Common Stock,
cash or other property), or the conditions to the vesting and/or payment or settlement of such Other Share-Based Awards (which may include,
but not be limited to, achievement of performance criteria) and all other terms and conditions of such Other Share-Based Awards. In the
event that the Administrator grants a bonus in the form of Shares, the Shares constituting such bonus shall, as determined by the Administrator,
be evidenced in uncertificated form or by a book entry record or a certificate issued in the name of the Participant to whom such grant
was made and delivered to such Participant as soon as practicable after the date on which such bonus is payable. Notwithstanding anything
set forth in the Plan to the contrary, any dividend or dividend equivalent Award issued hereunder shall be subject to the same restrictions,
conditions and risks of forfeiture as apply to the underlying Award.


 


Section
11. Cash Awards.


 


The Administrator may grant
Awards that are denominated in, or payable to Participants solely in, cash, as deemed by the Administrator to be consistent with the
purposes of the Plan, and, such Cash Awards shall be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations determined by the
Administrator, in its sole discretion, from time to time. Awards granted pursuant to this Section 11 may be granted with value and payment
contingent upon the achievement of performance goals.


 




    	 	-12-	 



     


    

 


Section
12. Change in Control.


 


Unless otherwise determined
by the Administrator and evidenced in an Award Agreement, notwithstanding Section 4(e) of the Plan, in the event that (a) a
Change in Control occurs, and (b) the Participant’s employment or service is terminated by the Company, its successor or an Affiliate
thereof without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason (if applicable) on or after the effective date of the Change in Control but
prior to twelve (12) months following the Change in Control, then:


 


(a) any unvested or unexercisable
portion of any Award carrying a right to exercise shall become fully vested and exercisable; and


 


(b) the restrictions, deferral
limitations, payment conditions and forfeiture conditions applicable to an Award granted under the Plan shall lapse and such Awards shall
be deemed fully vested and any performance conditions imposed with respect to such Awards shall be deemed to be fully achieved at target
performance levels.


 


If the Administrator determines
in its discretion pursuant to Section 3(b)(4) hereof to accelerate the vesting of Options and/or Share Appreciation Rights in connection
with a Change in Control, the Administrator shall also have discretion in connection with such action to provide that all Options and/or
Share Appreciation Rights outstanding immediately prior to such Change in Control shall expire on the effective date of such Change in
Control.


 


Section
13. Amendment and Termination.


 


The Board may amend, alter
or terminate the Plan at any time, but no amendment, alteration or termination shall be made that would impair the rights of a Participant
under any Award theretofore granted without such Participant’s consent. The Board shall obtain approval of the Company’s
stockholders for any amendment that would require such approval in order to satisfy the requirements of any rules of the stock exchange
on which the Common Stock is traded or other Applicable Law. The Administrator may amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted,
prospectively or retroactively, but, subject to Section 5 of the Plan and the immediately preceding sentence, no such amendment shall
materially impair the rights of any Participant without his or her consent.


 


Section
14. Unfunded Status of Plan.


 


The Plan is intended to constitute
an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant by the Company,
nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.


 


Section
15. Withholding Taxes.


 


Each Participant shall, no
later than the date as of which the value of an Award first becomes includible in the gross income of such Participant for purposes of
applicable taxes, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator regarding payment of an amount up to the
maximum statutory tax rates in the Participant’s applicable jurisdiction with respect to the Award, as determined by the Company.
The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on the making of such payments or arrangements, and the Company shall,
to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to such
Participant. Whenever cash is to be paid pursuant to an Award, the Company shall have the right to deduct therefrom an amount sufficient
to satisfy any applicable withholding tax requirements related thereto. Whenever Shares or property other than cash are to be delivered
pursuant to an Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant to remit to the Company in cash an amount sufficient
to satisfy any related taxes to be withheld and applied to the tax obligations; provided, that, with the approval of the
Administrator, a Participant may satisfy the foregoing requirement by either (i) electing to have the Company withhold from delivery
of Shares or other property, as applicable, or (ii) delivering already owned unrestricted shares of Common Stock, in each case,
having a value not exceeding the applicable taxes to be withheld and applied to the tax obligations. Such already owned and unrestricted
shares of Common Stock shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date on which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined
and any fractional share amounts resulting therefrom shall be settled in cash. Such an election may be made with respect to all or any
portion of the Shares to be delivered pursuant to an award. The Company may also use any other method of obtaining the necessary payment
or proceeds, as permitted by Applicable Laws, to satisfy its withholding obligation with respect to any Award.

Section
16. Transfer of Awards.


 


Until such time as the Awards
are fully vested and/or exercisable in accordance with the Plan or an Award Agreement, no purported sale, assignment, mortgage, hypothecation,
transfer, charge, pledge, encumbrance, gift, transfer in trust (voting or other) or other disposition of, or creation of a security interest
in or lien on, any Award or any agreement or commitment to do any of the foregoing (each, a “Transfer”) by any holder
thereof in violation of the provisions of the Plan or an Award Agreement will be valid, except with the prior written consent of the
Administrator, which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the Administrator. Any purported Transfer of an Award
or any economic benefit or interest therein in violation of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall be null and void ab initio and
shall not create any obligation or liability of the Company, and any Person purportedly acquiring any Award or any economic benefit or
interest therein transferred in violation of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall not be entitled to be recognized as a holder of such
Shares or other property underlying such Award. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in accordance with the provisions of
the immediately preceding sentence, an Option or a Share Appreciation Right may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant,
only by the Participant or, during any period during which the Participant is under a legal Disability, by the Participant’s guardian
or legal representative.


 


Section
17. Continued Employment or Service.


 


Neither the adoption of the
Plan nor the grant of an Award shall confer upon any Eligible Recipient any right to continued employment or service with the Company
or any Affiliate thereof, as the case may be, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate thereof
to terminate the employment or service of any of its Eligible Recipients at any time.


 


Section
18. Effective Date.


 


The Plan was adopted by the
Board on May 18, 2021 and shall become effective upon the closing of the initial public offering (the “Effective Date”).


 


Section
19. Electronic Signature.


 


Participant’s electronic
signature of an Award Agreement shall have the same validity and effect as a signature affixed by hand.


 


Section
20. Term of Plan.


 


No Award shall be granted pursuant
to the Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, but Awards theretofore granted may extend beyond that date.


 


Section
21. Securities Matters and Regulations.


 


(a) Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the obligation of the Company to sell or deliver Shares with respect to any Award granted under the Plan shall
be subject to all Applicable Laws, rules and regulations, including all applicable federal and state securities laws, and the obtaining
of all such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator. The Administrator may
require, as a condition of the issuance and delivery of certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof,
that the recipient of such shares make such agreements and representations, and that such certificates bear such legends, as the Administrator,
in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable.


 




    	 	-14-	 



     


    

 


(b) Each Award is subject to
the requirement that, if at any time the Administrator determines that the listing, registration or qualification of Shares is required
by any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary
or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the grant of an Award or the issuance of Shares, no such Award shall be granted
or payment made or Shares issued, in whole or in part, unless listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval has been effected
or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Administrator.


 


(c) In the event that the disposition
of Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan is not covered by a then current registration statement under the Securities Act and is not otherwise
exempt from such registration, such Shares shall be restricted against transfer to the extent required by the Securities Act or regulations
thereunder, and the Administrator may require a Participant receiving Common Stock pursuant to the Plan, as a condition precedent to
receipt of such Common Stock, to represent to the Company in writing that the Common Stock acquired by such Participant is acquired for
investment only and not with a view to distribution.


 


Section
22. Section 409A of the Code.


 


The Plan as well as payments
and benefits under the Plan are intended to be exempt from, or to the extent subject thereto, to comply with Section 409A of the
Code, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A
of the Code, the Participant shall not be considered to have terminated employment or service with the Company for purposes of the Plan
and no payment shall be due to the Participant under the Plan or any Award until the Participant would be considered to have incurred
a “separation from service” from the Company and its Affiliates within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any
payments described in the Plan that are due within the “short term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the
Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless Applicable Law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the Plan, to the extent that any Awards (or any other amounts payable under any plan, program or arrangement of the Company or any
of its Affiliates) are payable upon a separation from service and such payment would result in the imposition of any individual tax and
penalty interest charges imposed under Section 409A of the Code, the settlement and payment of such awards (or other amounts) shall
instead be made on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following such separation from service (or death,
if earlier). Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Plan shall be construed as a separate identified payment for
purposes of Section 409A of the Code. The Company makes no representation that any or all of the payments or benefits described
in this Plan will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A
of the Code from applying to any such payment. The Participant shall be solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties
incurred under Section 409A.


 


Section
23. Notification of Election Under Section 83(b) of the Code.


 


If any Participant shall, in
connection with the acquisition of shares of Common Stock under the Plan, make the election permitted under Section 83(b) of the
Code, such Participant shall notify the Company of such election within ten (10) days after filing notice of the election with the
Internal Revenue Service.


 


Section
24. No Fractional Shares.


 


No fractional shares of Common
Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan. The Administrator shall determine whether cash, other Awards, or other property
shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited
or otherwise eliminated.


 




    	 	-15-	 



     


    

 


Section
25. Beneficiary.


 


A Participant may file with
the Administrator a written designation of a beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Administrator and may, from time to
time, amend or revoke such designation. If no designated beneficiary survives the Participant, the executor or administrator of the Participant’s
estate shall be deemed to be the Participant’s beneficiary.


 


Section
26. Paperless Administration.


 


In the event that the Company
establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the documentation, granting or exercise of Awards,
such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless documentation, granting or exercise of Awards
by a Participant may be permitted through the use of such an automated system.


 


Section
27. Severability.


 


If any provision of the Plan
is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of the Plan shall not be affected but shall be applied as if the invalid
or unenforceable provision had not been included in the Plan.


 


Section
28. Clawback.


 


(a) If the Company is required
to prepare a financial restatement due to the material non-compliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement, then the
Committee may require any Section 16 Officer to repay or forfeit to the Company, and each Section 16 Officer agrees to so repay
or forfeit, that part of the Incentive Compensation received by that Section 16 Officer during the three-year period preceding the
publication of the restated financial statement that the Committee determines was in excess of the amount that such Section 16 Officer
would have received had such Incentive Compensation been calculated based on the financial results reported in the restated financial
statement. The Committee may take into account any factors it deems reasonable in determining whether to seek recoupment of previously
paid Incentive Compensation and how much Incentive Compensation to recoup from each Section 16 Officer (which need not be the same
amount or proportion for each Section 16 Officer), including any determination by the Committee that a Section 16 Officer engaged
in fraud, willful misconduct or committed grossly negligent acts or omissions which materially contributed to the events that led to
the financial restatement. The amount and form of the Incentive Compensation to be recouped shall be determined by the Committee in its
sole and absolute discretion, and recoupment of Incentive Compensation may be made, in the Committee’s sole and absolute discretion,
through the cancellation of vested or unvested Awards, cash repayment or both.


 


(b) Notwithstanding any other
provisions in this Plan, any Award which is subject to recovery under any Applicable Laws, government regulation or stock exchange listing
requirement, will be subject to such deductions and clawback as may be required to be made pursuant to such Applicable Law, government
regulation or stock exchange listing requirement (or any policy adopted by the Company pursuant to any such law, government regulation
or stock exchange listing requirement).


 


Section
29. Governing Law.


 


The Plan shall be governed
by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law of such
state.


 




    	 	-16-	 



     


    

 


Section
30. Indemnification.


 


To the extent allowable pursuant
to applicable law, each member of the Board and the Administrator and any officer or other employee to whom authority to administer any
component of the Plan is delegated shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that
may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding
to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan
and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him
or her; provided, however, that he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before
he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive
of any other rights of indemnification to which such individuals may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation
or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.


 


Section
31. Titles and Headings, References to Sections of the Code or Exchange Act.


 


The titles and headings of
the sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such
titles or headings, shall control. References to sections of the Code or the Exchange Act shall include any amendment or successor thereto.


 


Section
32. Successors.


 


The obligations of the Company
under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, 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.


 


Section
33. Relationship to other Benefits.


 


No payment pursuant to the
Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance,
welfare, or other benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other
plan or an agreement thereunder.
