expressly affirmed by the Company or (ii) the contractual obligations represented by the Award are expressly assumed (and not simply
by operation of law) by the successor entity or its Parent in connection with the Corporate Transaction with appropriate adjustments
to the number and type of securities of the successor entity or its Parent subject to the Award and the exercise or purchase price thereof
which at least preserves the compensation element of the Award existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction as determined in accordance
with the instruments evidencing the agreement to assume the Award.

Service:


 




    	 



     


    

 


(i)
that such termination is for “Cause” as such term (or word of like import) is expressly defined in a then-effective written
employment agreement, consulting agreement, service agreement or other similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company or such
Related Entity, provided, however, that with regard to any agreement that defines “Cause” on the occurrence of or in connection
with a Corporate Transaction, such definition of “Cause” shall not apply until a Corporate Transaction actually occurs; or


 


(ii)
in the absence of such then-effective written agreement and definition, is based on, in the determination of the Administrator: (A) the
Grantee’s performance of any act, or failure to perform any act, in bad faith and to the detriment of the Company or a Related
Entity; (B) the Grantee’s dishonesty, intentional misconduct or material breach of any agreement with the Company or a Related
Entity; (C) the Grantee’s material breach of any noncompetition, confidentiality or similar agreement with the Company or a Related
Entity, as determined under such agreement; (D) the Grantee’s commission of a crime involving dishonesty, breach of trust, or physical
or emotional harm to any person; (E) if the Grantee is an Employee or Consultant, the Grantee’s engaging in acts or omissions constituting
gross negligence, misconduct or a willful violation of a Company or a Related Entity policy which is or is reasonably expected to be
materially injurious to the Company and/or a Related Entity; or (F) if the Grantee is an Employee, the grantee’s failure to follow
the reasonable instructions of the Board or such grantee’s direct supervisor, which failure, if curable, is not cured within ten
(10) days after notice to such grantee or, if cured, recurs within one hundred eighty (180) days.

to the Company or such Related Entity.


 


(m)
“Continuous Service” means that the provision of services to the Company or a Related Entity in any capacity
of Employee, Director or Consultant is not interrupted or terminated. In jurisdictions requiring notice in advance of an effective termination
as an Employee, Director or Consultant, Continuous Service shall be deemed terminated upon the actual cessation of providing services
to the Company or a Related Entity notwithstanding any required notice period that must be fulfilled before a termination as an Employee,
Director or Consultant can be effective under Applicable Laws. A Grantee’s Continuous Service shall be deemed to have terminated
either upon an actual termination of Continuous Service or upon the entity for which the Grantee provides services ceasing to be a Related
Entity. Continuous Service shall not be considered interrupted in the case of (i) any approved leave of absence, (ii) transfers among
the Company, any Related Entity, or any successor in any capacity of Employee, Director or Consultant, or (iii) any change in status
as long as the individual remains in the service of the Company or a Related Entity in any capacity of Employee, Director or Consultant
(except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement). An approved leave of absence for purposes of this Plan shall include sick leave,
military leave, or any other authorized personal leave, so long as the Company or Related Entity has a reasonable expectation that the
individual will return to provide services for the Company or Related Entity, and provided further that the leave does not exceed six
(6) months, unless the individual has a statutory or contractual right to re-employment following a longer leave. For purposes of each
Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan, if such leave exceeds three (3) months, and reemployment upon expiration of such leave
is not guaranteed by statute or contract, then the Incentive Stock Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option beginning

“Disability” means that a Grantee is unable to carry out the responsibilities and functions of the position held by the Grantee
by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment for a period of not less than ninety (90) consecutive days. A Grantee

6.
Terms and Conditions of Awards.


 


(a)
Types of Awards. The Administrator is authorized under the Plan to award any type of arrangement to an Employee, Director or Consultant
that is not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan and that by its terms involves or might involve the issuance of (i) Shares,
(ii) cash or (iii) an Option, an SAR, or similar right with a fixed or variable price related to the Fair Market Value of the Shares
and with an exercise or conversion privilege related to the passage of time, the occurrence of one or more events, or the satisfaction
of performance criteria or other conditions. Such awards include, without limitation, Options, SARs, sales or bonuses of Restricted Stock,
Restricted Stock Units, and Dividend Equivalent Rights. An Award may consist of one such security or benefit, or two (2) or more of them
in any combination or alternative.


 


(b)
Designation of Award. Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrator.
The type of each Award shall be designated in the Award Agreement. In the case of an Option, the Option shall be designated as either
an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, an Option will qualify as an Incentive
Stock Option under the Code only to the extent the $100,000 dollar limitation of Section 422(d) of the Code is not exceeded. The $100,000
limitation of Section 422(d) of the Code is calculated based on the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to Options designated
as Incentive Stock Options which become exercisable for the first time by a Grantee during any calendar year (under all plans of the
Company or any Related Entity). For purposes of this calculation, Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in
which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the grant date of the relevant Option. Any
Option granted which fails to satisfy the requirements of the Applicable Laws for treatment as an Incentive Stock Option shall be a Non-Qualified
Stock Option.


 


(c)
Conditions of Award. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Administrator shall determine the provisions, terms, and conditions
of each Award including, but not limited to, the Award vesting schedule, repurchase provisions, rights of first refusal, forfeiture provisions,
form of payment (cash, Shares, or other consideration) upon settlement of the Award, payment contingencies, and satisfaction of any performance
criteria that may be established by the Administrator.

(iii)
Before the 90th day of the applicable Performance Period (or, if the Performance Period is less than one year, no later than the number
of days which is equal to 25% of such Performance Period), the Administrator will determine the duration of the Performance Period, the
performance criteria on which performance will be measured, and the amount and terms of payment/vesting upon achievement of the such
criteria.


 


(iv)
Following the completion of each Performance Period, the Administrator will certify in writing whether the applicable performance criteria
have been achieved for the Awards for such Performance Period. A Grantee will be eligible to receive payment pursuant to an Award for
a Performance Period only if the performance criteria for such Performance Period are achieved. In determining the amounts earned by
a Grantee pursuant to an Award issued pursuant to this Section 6(d), the Administrator will have the right to (A) reduce or eliminate
(but not to increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Administrator
may deem relevant to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the Performance Period, (B) determine what actual Award,
if any, will be paid in the event of a Corporate Transaction or in the event of a termination of employment following a Corporate Transaction
prior to the end of the Performance Period, and (C) determine what actual Award, if any, will be paid in the event of a termination of
employment other than as the result of a Grantee’s death or Disability prior to a Corporate Transaction and prior to the end of
the Performance Period to the extent an actual Award would have otherwise been achieved had the Grantee remained employed through the
end of the Performance Period.


 


(v)
Payment of the Award to a Grantee shall be paid following the end of the Performance Period, or if later, the date on which any applicable
contingency or restriction has ended.


 


(e)
Acquisitions and Other Transactions. The Administrator may issue Awards under the Plan in settlement, assumption or substitution
for, outstanding awards or obligations to grant future awards in connection with the Company or a Related Entity acquiring another entity,
an interest in another entity or an additional interest in a Related Entity whether by merger, stock purchase, asset purchase or other
form of transaction.


 


(f)
Deferral of Award Payment. The Administrator may establish one or more programs under the Plan to permit selected Grantees the
opportunity to elect to defer receipt of consideration upon exercise of an Award, satisfaction of performance criteria, or other event
that absent the election would entitle the Grantee to payment or receipt of Shares or other consideration under an Award. The Administrator
may establish the election procedures, the timing of such elections, the mechanisms for payments of, and accrual of interest or other
earnings, if any, on amounts, Shares or other consideration so deferred, and such other terms, conditions, rules and procedures that
the Administrator deems advisable for the administration of any such deferral program.

Separate Programs. The Administrator may establish one or more separate programs under the Plan for the purpose of issuing particular
forms of Awards to one or more classes of Grantees on such terms and conditions as determined by the Administrator from time to time.

Individual Award Limit. No Grantee may be granted an Award of Options or SARs in any calendar year with respect to more than one
hundred thousand (100,000) Shares, or an Award of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Dividend Equivalent Rights, or other Awards
that are valued with reference to shares covering more than one hundred thousand (100,000) Shares. The foregoing limitations shall be
adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company’s capitalization pursuant to Section 13 below.


 


(i)
Early Exercise. An Award Agreement may, but need not, include a provision whereby the Grantee may elect at any time while an Employee,
Director or Consultant to exercise any part or all of the Award prior to full vesting of the Award. Any unvested Shares received pursuant
to such exercise may be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or a Related Entity or to any other restriction the Administrator
determines to be appropriate.


 


(j)
Term of Award. The term of each Award shall be the term stated in the Award Agreement, provided, however, that the term shall
be no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof. However, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Grantee
who, at the time the Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock
of the Company or any Related Entity, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant thereof or
such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the specified term of any Award shall not
include any period for which the Grantee has elected to defer the receipt of the Shares or cash issuable pursuant to the Award.


 


(k)
Transferability of Awards. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, no award may be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the
lifetime of the Grantee, only by the Grantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee may designate one or more beneficiaries of the
Grantee’s Award in the event of the Grantee’s death on a beneficiary designation form provided by the Administrator.


 


(l)
Time of Granting Awards. The date of grant of an Award shall for all purposes be the date on which the Administrator makes the
determination to grant such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator.


 


(m)
Stock Appreciation Rights. An SAR may be granted (i) with respect to any Option granted under this Plan, either concurrently with
the grant of such Option or at such later time as determined by the Administrator (as to all or any portion of the Shares subject to
the Option), or (ii) alone, without reference to any related Option. Each SAR granted by the Administrator under this Plan shall be subject
to the following terms and conditions. Each SAR granted to any participant shall relate to such number of Shares as shall be determined
by the Administrator, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 13. In the case of an SAR granted with respect to an Option, the number
of Shares to which the SAR pertains shall be reduced in the same proportion that the holder of the Option exercises the related Option.
The exercise price of an SAR will be determined by the Administrator at the date of grant but may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market
Value of the Shares subject thereto on the date of grant. Subject to the right of the Administrator to deliver cash in lieu of Shares
(which, as it pertains to Officers and Directors of the Company, shall comply with all requirements of the Exchange Act), the number
of Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise of an SAR shall be determined by dividing:


 




    	11



     


    

 


(i)
the number of Shares as to which the SAR is exercised multiplied by the amount of the appreciation in such Shares (for this purpose,
the “appreciation” shall be the amount by which the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the SAR on the exercise date
exceeds (1) in the case of an SAR related to an Option, the exercise price of the Shares under the Option or (2) in the case of an SAR
granted alone, without reference to a related Option, an amount which shall be determined by the Administrator at the time of grant,
subject to adjustment under Section 13); by


 


(ii)
the Fair Market Value of a Share on the exercise date.


 


In
lieu of issuing Shares upon the exercise of an SAR, the Administrator may elect to pay the holder of the SAR cash equal to the Fair Market
Value on the exercise date of any or all of the Shares which would otherwise be issuable. No fractional Shares shall be issued upon the
exercise of an SAR; instead, the holder of the SAR shall be entitled to receive a cash adjustment equal to the same fraction of the Fair
Market Value of a Share on the exercise date or to purchase the portion necessary to make a whole share at its Fair Market Value on the
date of exercise. The exercise of an SAR related to an Option shall be permitted only to the extent that the Option is exercisable under
Section 11 on the date of surrender. Any Incentive Stock Option surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6(m) shall be
deemed to have been converted into a Non-Qualified Stock Option immediately prior to such surrender.


 


7.
Award Exercise or Purchase Price, Consideration and Taxes.


 


(a)
Exercise or Purchase Price. The exercise or purchase price, if any, for an Award shall be as follows.


 


(i)
In the case of an Incentive Stock Option:


 


(1)
granted to an Employee who, at the time of the grant of such Incentive Stock Option owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%)
of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Related Entity, the per Share exercise price shall be not less than
one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant; or


 




    	12



     


    

 


(2)
granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in the preceding paragraph, the per Share exercise price shall be not less than
one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.


 


(ii)
In the case of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, the per Share exercise price shall be not less than one-hundred percent (100%) of the Fair
Market Value per Share on the date of grant.


 


(iii)
In the case of other Awards, such price as is determined by the Administrator.


 


(iv)
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(a), in the case of an Award issued pursuant to Section 6(e), above, the exercise
or purchase price for the Award shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the relevant instrument evidencing the agreement
to issue such Award.


 


(b)
Consideration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise or purchase
of an Award, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator. In addition to any other types of consideration
the Administrator may determine, the Administrator is authorized to accept as consideration for Shares issued under the Plan the following:


 


(i)
cash;


 


(ii)
check;


 


(iii)
delivery of Grantee’s promissory note with such recourse, interest, security, and redemption provisions as the Administrator determines
as appropriate (but only to the extent that the acceptance or terms of the promissory note would not violate an Applicable Law); provided,
however, that interest shall compound at least annually and shall be charged at the minimum rate of interest necessary to avoid (A) the
imputation of interest income to the Company and compensation income to the Grantee under any applicable provisions of the Code, and
(B) the classification of the Award as a liability for financial accounting purposes;


 


(iv)
surrender of Shares or delivery of a properly executed form of attestation of ownership of Shares as the Administrator may require which
have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said
Award shall be exercised;


 


(v)
with respect to Options, payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Grantee (A) shall provide
written instructions to a broker-dealer acceptable to the Company to effect the immediate sale of some or all of the purchased Shares
and remit to the Company sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased Shares and (B) shall provide
written directives to the Company to deliver the certificates (or other evidence satisfactory to the Company to the extent that the Shares
are uncertificated) for the purchased Shares directly to such broker-dealer in order to complete the sale transaction;


 




    	13



     


    

 


(vi)
with respect to Options, payment through a “net exercise” such that, without the payment of any funds, the Grantee may exercise
the Option and receive the net number of Shares equal to (i) the number of Shares as to which the Option is being exercised, multiplied
by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Fair Market Value per Share (on such date as is determined by the Administrator) less
the Exercise Price per Share, and the denominator of which is such Fair Market Value per Share;


 


(vii)
past or future services actually or to be rendered to the Company or a Related Entity;


 


(viii)
any combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or


 


(ix)
any other method approved by the Administrator.


 


The
Administrator may at any time or from time to time, by adoption of or by amendment to the standard forms of Award Agreement described
in Section 4(c)(iv), or by other means, grant Awards which do not permit all of the foregoing forms of consideration to be used in payment
for the Shares or which otherwise restrict one or more forms of consideration.


 


8.
Notice to Company of Disqualifying Disposition. Each Employee who receives an Incentive Stock Option must agree to notify the
Company in writing immediately after the Employee makes a Disqualifying Disposition of any Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise
of an Incentive Stock Option.


 


9.
Tax Withholding.


 


(a)
Prior to the delivery of any Shares or cash pursuant to an Award (or the exercise thereof), or at such other time as the Tax Obligations
are due, the Company, in accordance with the Code and any Applicable Laws, shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold,
or require a Grantee to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy all Tax Obligations. The Administrator may condition such
delivery, payment, or other event pursuant to an Award on the payment by the Grantee of any such Tax Obligations.


 


(b)
The Administrator, pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may designate the method or methods by which a Grantee
may satisfy the Tax Obligations. As determined by the Administrator from time to time, these methods may include one or more of the following:


 


(i)
paying cash;


 


(ii)
electing to have the Company withhold cash or Shares deliverable to the Grantee having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required
to be withheld;


 


(iii)
delivering to the Company already-owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld or remitted, provided
the delivery of such Shares will not result in any adverse accounting consequences as the Administrator determines;


 




    	14



     


    

 


(iv)
selling a sufficient number of Shares otherwise deliverable to the Grantee through such means as the Administrator may determine (whether
through a broker or otherwise) equal to the Tax Obligations required to be withheld;


 


(v)
retaining from salary or other amounts payable to the Grantee cash having a sufficient value to satisfy the Tax Obligations; or


 


(vi)
any other means which the Administrator determines to both comply with Applicable Laws, and to be consistent with the purposes of the
Plan.


 


The
amount of Tax Obligations will be deemed to include any amount that the Administrator determines may be withheld at the time the election
is made, not to exceed the amount determined by using the maximum federal, state, local and foreign marginal income tax rates applicable
to the Grantee or the Company, as applicable, with respect to the Award on the date that the amount of tax or social insurance liability
to be withheld or remitted is to be determined. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered shall be determined as
of the date that the Tax Obligations are required to be withheld.


 


10.
Rights As a Stockholder.


 


(a)
Restricted Stock. Except as otherwise provided in any Award Agreement, a Grantee will not have any rights of a stockholder with
respect to any of the Shares granted to the Grantee under an Award of Restricted Stock (including the right to vote or receive dividends
and other distributions paid or made with respect thereto) nor shall cash dividends or dividend equivalents accrue or be paid in respect
of any unvested Award of Restricted Stock, unless and until such Shares vest.


 


(b)
Other Awards. In the case of Awards other than Restricted Stock, except as otherwise provided in any Award Agreement, a Grantee
will not have any rights of a stockholder, nor will dividends or dividend equivalents accrue or be paid, with respect to any of the Shares
granted pursuant to such Award until the Award is exercised or settled and the Shares are delivered (as evidenced by the appropriate
entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company).


 


11.
Exercise of Award.


 


(a)
Procedure for Exercise.


 


(i)
Any Award granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator under the
terms of the Plan and as specified in the Award Agreement.


 


(ii)
An Award shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms
of the Award by the person entitled to exercise the Award and full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Award is exercised
has been made, including, to the extent selected, use of the broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure to pay the purchase price as
provided in Section 7(b)(v).


 




    	15



     


    

 


(b)
Exercise of Award Following Termination of Continuous Service. In the event of termination of a Grantee’s Continuous Service
for any reason other than Disability or death, such Grantee may, but only during the Post-Termination Exercise Period (but in no event
later than the expiration date of the term of such Award as set forth in the Award Agreement), exercise the portion of the Grantee’s
Award that was vested at the date of such termination or such other portion of the Grantee’s Award as may be determined by the
Administrator. The Grantee’s Award Agreement may provide that upon the termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Service for
Cause, the Grantee’s right to exercise the Award shall terminate concurrently with the termination of Grantee’s Continuous
Service. In the event of a Grantee’s change of status from Employee to Consultant, an Employee’s Incentive Stock Option shall
convert automatically to a Non-Qualified Stock Option on the day three (3) months and one day following such change of status. To the
extent that the Grantee’s Award was unvested at the date of termination, or if the Grantee does not exercise the vested portion
of the Grantee’s Award within the Post-Termination Exercise Period, the Award shall terminate.


 


(c)
Disability of Grantee. In the event of termination of a Grantee’s Continuous Service as a result of his or her Disability,
such Grantee may, but only within twelve (12) months from the date of such termination (or such longer period as specified in the Award
Agreement but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Award as set forth in the Award Agreement), exercise the
portion of the Grantee’s Award that was vested at the date of such termination; provided, however, that if such Disability is not
a “disability” as such term is defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option such Incentive
Stock Option shall automatically convert to a Non-Qualified Stock Option on the day three (3) months and one day following such termination.
To the extent that the Grantee’s Award was unvested at the date of termination, or if Grantee does not exercise the vested portion
of the Grantee’s Award within the time specified herein, the Award shall terminate.


 


(d)
Death of Grantee. In the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Service as a result of his or her death, or
in the event of the death of the Grantee during the Post-Termination Exercise Period or during the twelve (12) month period following
the Grantee’s termination of Continuous Service as a result of his or her Disability, the Grantee’s estate or a person who
acquired the right to exercise the Award by bequest or inheritance may exercise the portion of the Grantee’s Award that was vested
as of the date of termination, within twelve (12) months from the date of death (or such longer period as specified in the Award Agreement
but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Award as set forth in the Award Agreement). To the extent that, at the
time of death, the Grantee’s Award was unvested, or if the Grantee’s estate or a person who acquired the right to exercise
the Award by bequest or inheritance does not exercise the vested portion of the Grantee’s Award within the time specified herein,
the Award shall terminate.


 


(e)
Extension if Exercise Prevented by Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the exercise of an Award within the applicable time
periods set forth in this Section 11 is prevented by the provisions of Section 12 below, the Award shall remain exercisable until one
(1) month after the date the Grantee is notified by the Company that the Award is exercisable, but in any event no later than the expiration
of the term of such Award as set forth in the Award Agreement.


 




    	16



     


    

 


12.
Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares; Manner of Issuance of Shares.


 


(a)
If at any time the Administrator determines that the delivery of Shares pursuant to the exercise, vesting or any other provision of an
Award is or may be unlawful under Applicable Laws, the vesting or right to exercise an Award or to otherwise receive Shares pursuant
to the terms of an Award shall be suspended until the Administrator determines that such delivery is lawful and shall be further subject
to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any registration
or qualification of the Shares under any Applicable Law.


 


(b)
As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the
time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute
such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any Applicable Laws.


 


(c)
Subject to the Applicable Laws and any governing rules or regulations, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued the Shares acquired
pursuant to an Award and shall deliver such Shares to or for the benefit of the Grantee by means of one or more of the following as determined
by the Administrator: (i) by delivering to the Grantee evidence of book entry Shares credited to the account of the Grantee, (ii) by
depositing such Shares for the benefit of the Grantee with any broker with which the Grantee has an account relationship, or (iii) by
delivering such Shares to the Grantee in certificate form.


 


(d)
No fractional Shares shall be issued pursuant to any Award under the Plan; any Grantee who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction
of a Share upon exercise or vesting of an Award will receive from the Company cash in lieu of such fractional Shares in an amount equal
to the Fair Market Value of such fractional Shares, as determined by the Administrator.


 


13.
Adjustments. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of Shares covered by each outstanding
Award, and the number of Shares which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted
or which have been returned to the Plan, the exercise or purchase price of each such outstanding Award, as well as any other terms that
the Administrator determines require adjustment shall be proportionately adjusted for (i) any increase or decrease in the number of issued
and outstanding Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Shares,
or similar transaction affecting the Shares, (ii) any other increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding Shares effected
without receipt of consideration by the Company, or (iii) any other transaction with respect to the Company’s Common Stock including
a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation (including a spin-off or other distribution of stock
or property), reorganization, liquidation (whether partial or complete) or any similar transaction; provided, however that conversion
of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.”
Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as the Administrator
determines, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class,
shall affect, and no adjustment by reason hereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an Award. No
adjustments shall be made for dividends paid in cash or in property other than Common Stock of the Company, nor shall cash dividends
or dividend equivalents accrue or be paid in respect of unexercised Options or unvested Awards hereunder.


 




    	17



     


    

 


14.
Corporate Transactions.


 


(a)
Termination of Award to Extent Not Assumed in Corporate Transaction. Effective upon the consummation of a Corporate Transaction,
all outstanding Awards under the Plan shall terminate. However, all such Awards shall not terminate to the extent they are Assumed in
connection with the Corporate Transaction.


 


(b)
Acceleration of Award Upon Corporate Transaction. The Administrator shall have the authority, exercisable either in advance of
any actual or anticipated Corporate Transaction or at the time of an actual Corporate Transaction, and exercisable at the time of the
grant of an Award under the Plan or any time while an Award remains outstanding, to provide for the full or partial automatic vesting
and exercisability of one or more outstanding unvested Awards under the Plan and the release from restrictions on transfer and repurchase
or forfeiture rights of such Awards in connection with a Corporate Transaction on such terms and conditions as the Administrator may
specify. The Administrator also shall have the authority to condition any such Award vesting and exercisability or release from such
limitations upon the subsequent termination of the Continuous Service of the Grantee within a specified period following the effective
date of the Corporate Transaction. The Administrator may provide that any Awards so vested or released from such limitations in connection
with a Corporate Transaction shall remain fully exercisable until the expiration or sooner termination of the Award.


 


(c)
Effect of Acceleration on Incentive Stock Options. Any Incentive Stock Option accelerated under this Section 14 in connection
with a Corporate Transaction shall remain exercisable as an Incentive Stock Option under the Code only to the extent the $100,000 dollar
limitation of Section 422(d) of the Code is not exceeded.


 


15.
Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective at such time as it has been (a) approved by the Company’s
stockholders and (b) adopted by the Board. Stockholder approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner required under Applicable
Laws. The Plan shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated. Any Award granted before stockholder approval
is obtained will be rescinded if stockholder approval is not obtained within the time prescribed, and Shares issued on the grant or exercise
of any such Award shall not be counted in determining whether stockholder approval is obtained. Subject to the preceding sentence and
the Applicable Laws, Awards may be granted under the Plan upon its becoming effective.


 


16.
Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan.


 


(a)
The Board may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in any respect, except that it may not, without the approval of the stockholders
obtained within twelve (12) months before or after the Board adopts a resolution authorizing any of the following actions, do any of
the following:


 


(i)
increase the total number of shares that may be issued under the Plan (except by adjustment pursuant to Section 13);


 


(ii)
modify the provisions of Section 6 regarding eligibility for grants of Incentive Stock Options;


 


(iii)
modify the provisions of Section 7(a) regarding the exercise price at which shares may be offered pursuant to Options (except by adjustment
pursuant to Section 13);


 




    	18



     


    

 


(iv)
extend the expiration date of the Plan; and


 


(v)
except as provided in Section 13 (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization,
reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, or exchange of shares), the Company may not amend an Award granted
under the Plan to reduce its exercise price per share, cancel and regrant new Awards with lower prices per share than the original prices
per share of the cancelled Awards, or cancel any Awards in exchange for cash or the grant of replacement Awards with an exercise price
that is less than the exercise price of the original Awards, essentially having the effect of a repricing, without approval by the Company’s
stockholders.


 


(b)
No Award may be granted during any suspension of the Plan or after termination of the Plan.


 


(c)
No suspension or termination of the Plan shall adversely affect any rights under Awards already granted to a Grantee without his or her
consent.


 


17.
Reservation of Shares.


 


(a)
The Company, during the term of the Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to
satisfy the requirements of the Plan.


 


(b)
The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s
counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect
of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.


 


18.
No Effect on Terms of Employment/Consulting Relationship. The Plan shall not confer upon any Grantee any right with respect to
the Grantee’s Continuous Service, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the right of the Company or a Related
Entity to terminate the Grantee’s Continuous Service at any time, with or without Cause, and with or without notice. The ability
of the Company or any Related Entity to terminate the employment of a Grantee who is employed at will is in no way affected by its determination
that the Grantee’s Continuous Service has been terminated for Cause for the purposes of this Plan.


 


19.
No Effect on Retirement and Other Benefit Plans. Except as specifically provided in a retirement or other benefit plan of the
Company or a Related Entity, Awards shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits or contributions under any retirement
plan of the Company or a Related Entity, and shall not affect any benefits under any other benefit plan of any kind or any benefit plan
subsequently instituted under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to level of compensation. The Plan is not a “Retirement
Plan” or “Welfare Plan” under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.


 


20.
Information to Grantees. The Company shall provide to each Grantee, during the period for which such Grantee has one or more Awards
outstanding, such information as required by Applicable Laws.


 




    	19



     


    

 


21.
Electronic Delivery. The Administrator may decide to deliver any documents related to any Award granted under the Plan through
an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company or to request
a Grantee’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. By accepting an Award, each Grantee consents to receive such
documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained
by the Company or another third party designated by the Company, and such consent shall remain in effect throughout Grantee’s Continuous
Service with the Company and any Related Entity and thereafter until withdrawn in writing by Grantee.


 


22.
Data Privacy. The Administrator may decide to collect, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, personal data as described
in this Plan or any Award for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing participation in the Plan. By accepting
an Award, each Grantee acknowledges that the Company holds certain personal information about Grantee, including, but not limited to,
name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job
title, details of all Awards awarded, cancelled, exercised, vested or unvested, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing
the Plan (the “Data”). Each Grantee further acknowledges that Data may be transferred to any third parties
assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan and that these third parties may be located in jurisdictions
that may have different data privacy laws and protections, and Grantee authorizes such third parties to receive, possess, use, retain
and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Plan, including
any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the recipient or the Company may elect
to deposit any Shares acquired upon any Award.


 


23.
Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Award Agreement evidencing
any Award that is not exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code shall contain provisions such that the Award will comply
with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and avoid the consequences specified in Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code. To the extent
applicable, the Plan and Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury
regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that
may be issued or amended after the effective date of the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event
that following the effective date of the Plan the Administrator determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code
and related Department of Treasury guidance (including such Department of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the effective date
of the Plan), the Administrator may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and
procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Administrator
determines are necessary or appropriate to (1) exempt the Award from Section 409A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment
of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (2) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and related Department
of Treasury guidance.


 


24.
Unfunded Obligation. Grantees shall have the status of general unsecured creditors of the Company. Any amounts payable to Grantees
pursuant to the Plan shall be unfunded and unsecured obligations for all purposes, including, without limitation, Title I of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. Neither the Company nor any Related Entity shall be required to segregate any monies
from its general funds, or to create any trusts, or establish any special accounts with respect to such obligations. The Company shall
retain at all times beneficial ownership of any investments, including trust investments, which the Company may make to fulfill its payment
obligations hereunder. Any investments or the creation or maintenance of any trust or any Grantee account shall not create or constitute
a trust or fiduciary relationship between the Administrator, the Company or any Related Entity and a Grantee, or otherwise create any
vested or beneficial interest in any Grantee or the Grantee’s creditors in any assets of the Company or a Related Entity. The Grantees
shall have no claim against the Company or any Related Entity for any changes in the value of any assets that may be invested or reinvested
by the Company with respect to the Plan.


 


25.
Construction. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation
of any provision of the Plan. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall
include the singular. Use of the term “or” is not intended to be exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
