4.       Vesting

to Section 4(b) below, the RSUs shall vest as set forth in this Section 4(a), provided that the Grantee remains continuously employed

or Disability.


 


(c)       Settlement
of the vested RSUs may be in either shares of Common Stock or cash, as determined by the Committee in its discretion, and shall
occur as soon as practicable following the vesting date, but in no event later than 60 days after the vesting date (such date,
the “Settlement Date”).


 






    	 	 	 



     


    

 


5.       Rights
as Shareholder. If the RSUs are settled in shares of Common Stock, upon and following the Settlement Date and the entry of
such settlement on the books of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, the Grantee shall be the record owner of the
shares of Common Stock and shall be entitled to all of the rights of a shareholder of the Company including the right to vote such
shares of Common Stock and receive all dividends or other distributions paid with respect to such shares of Common Stock.


 


6.       Forfeiture.
RSUs which have not become vested, or do not vest, as of the date the Grantee’s Employment terminates shall immediately be
forfeited on such date, and the Grantee shall have no further rights with respect thereto, unless the Grantee has a valid and enforceable
employment agreement with the Company containing provisions that conflict with the foregoing, in which case the terms of such employment
agreement shall prevail.


 


7.       Restrictions.
Subject to any exceptions set forth in this Agreement or the Plan, until such time as the RSUs are settled in accordance with Section
4, the RSUs or the rights represented thereby may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed
of. No purported sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposal of the RSUs, or the rights represented thereby,
whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise will vest in the assignee or transferee any interest or right
herein whatsoever, but immediately upon such purported sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposal of the
RSUs will be forfeited by the Grantee and all of the Grantee’s rights to such RSUs shall immediately terminate without any
payment or consideration from the Company.


 


8.       Restrictive
Covenants. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, by accepting the RSUs, the Grantee acknowledges
that the Grantee is bound by the following restrictive covenants (the “Restrictive Covenants”):


 


(a)       Except
to the extent (1) expressly authorized in writing by the Company or (2) required by law or any legal process, the Grantee shall
not at any time during the Grantee’s Employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates or following the date the Grantee’s
Employment terminates use, disseminate, disclose or divulge to any person or to any firm, corporation, association or other business
entity, Confidential Information (as defined in Section 20 herein) or proprietary Trade Secrets (as defined in Section 20 herein)
of the Company or any of its Affiliates; or


 


(b)       The
Grantee shall not at any time during the Grantee’s Employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates or following the
date the Grantee’s Employment terminates make any derogatory, disparaging or negative statements, orally, written or otherwise,
against the Company or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers and employees.


 


Notwithstanding clause (a) above, pursuant
to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (18 U.S.C. 1833(b)), the Grantee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any
federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence either directly or indirectly
to a federal, state, or local government official, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a violation
of law. The Grantee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure
of a trade secret made in a complaint, or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.
If the Grantee files a lawsuit or other action alleging retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law,
the Grantee may disclose the trade secret to the Grantee’s attorney and use the trade secret in the court proceeding or other
action, if the Grantee files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except
pursuant to court order. This paragraph shall govern to the extent it may conflict with any other provision of this Agreement.


 


The Restrictive Covenants are in addition
to and do not supersede any rights the Company or any of its Affiliates may have in law or at equity or under any other agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Grantee has a valid and enforceable employment agreement with the Company that contains
similar restrictive covenants to those set forth herein, to the extent there is a conflict between the Restrictive Covenants and
such employment agreement, the terms of such employment agreement shall prevail.


 


By accepting the RSUs, the Grantee shall
further agree that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which will accrue to the Company or any of its Affiliates in
the event the Grantee breaches the Restrictive Covenants. Therefore, if the Company or any of its Affiliates shall institute any
action or proceeding to enforce the provisions hereof, the Grantee shall agree to waive the claim or defense that the Company or
any of its Affiliates has an adequate remedy at law and the Grantee shall agree not to assert in any such action or proceeding
the claim or defense that the Company or any of its Affiliates has an adequate remedy at law.

If at any time the Committee reasonably
believes that the Grantee has breached any of the Restrictive Covenants described in clauses (a) and (b) above or in any other
agreement including any employment agreement, the Committee may suspend the vesting of Grantee’s RSUs pending a good faith
determination by the Committee of whether any such Restrictive Covenant has been breached, it being understood that such suspension
shall not cause the settlement to be delayed beyond the last date that settlement may occur pursuant to Section 4 hereof. If the
Committee determines in good faith that the Grantee has breached any such Restrictive Covenant, the Grantee shall immediately forfeit
any outstanding unvested RSUs and shall repay to the Company, upon demand, any Common Stock or cash issued upon the settlement
of the Grantee’s RSUs if the vesting of such RSUs occurred during such breach. The Grantee shall also be required to repay
to the Company, in cash and upon demand, any proceeds resulting from the sale or other disposition (including to the Company) of
Common Stock issued upon settlement of the Grantee’s RSUs if the sale or disposition was effected at any time during such
breach.


 


The foregoing shall not prejudice the Company’s
right to require the Grantee to account for and pay over to the Company on a pre-tax basis any profit obtained by the Grantee as
a result of any transaction constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants.


 


9.       Taxes.


 


(a)       Liability
for Tax-Related Items. Except to the extent prohibited by law, the Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee is ultimately liable
and responsible for any and all income taxes (including federal, state, local and other income taxes), social insurance, payroll
taxes and other tax-related withholding (the “Tax-Related Items”) arising in connection with the RSUs, regardless
of any action the Company takes with respect to such Tax-Related Items. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Company (i) does
not make any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Item in connection with any aspect of the
RSUs, including the grant and vesting of the RSUs, or the subsequent sale of the shares of Common Stock and (ii) does not commit,
and is under no obligation, to structure the terms of the RSUs or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s
liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.


 


(b)       Payment
of Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no shares of Common Stock shall be issued unless
and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Committee) have been made by the Grantee with respect to the payment
of any taxes which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such shares of Common Stock. If the Grantee is subject
to Section 16 of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated thereunder, the Company will withhold from shares of Common
Stock upon the relevant tax withholding event, unless the use of such withholding method is prevented by applicable law or has
materially adverse accounting or tax consequences, in which case, the withholding obligation may be satisfied by one or a combination
of the methods set forth in the Plan. If the Grantee is not subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated
thereunder, the Grantee may elect to have the Company withhold from shares of Common Stock upon the relevant tax withholding event
and such election shall satisfy the Grantee’s obligations under this Section 9.


 


10.       Modification;
Entire Agreement; Waiver. No change, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement which reduces the Grantee’s
rights hereunder will be valid unless the same is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. This Agreement, together with the
Plan, represent the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the RSUs. The failure of the Company to enforce at any
time any provision of this Agreement will in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof.


 


11.       Policy
Against Insider Trading; Recoupment. By accepting the RSUs, the Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee is bound by and shall
comply with all the terms and conditions of the Company’s insider trading policy as may be in effect from time to time. The
Grantee further acknowledges and agrees that shares of Common Stock or cash delivered in settlement of the RSUs, and any proceeds
of such shares of Common Stock, are subject to any recoupment or “clawback” policy of the Company as may be in effect
from time to time and applied with prospective or retroactive effect.

or other form, of the Grantee’s personal data as described in this Agreement and any other RSU grant materials by the Company
for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. The Grantee

The Grantee understands that Personal Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration
and management of the Plan, now or in the future, that these recipients may be located in the Grantee’s country or elsewhere,
and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Grantee’s country. The
Grantee authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Personal Data, in electronic or other form,
for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands
that Personal Data will be held only as long as is necessary or appropriate to implement, administer and manage the Grantee’s
participation in the Plan. Further, the Grantee understands that the Grantee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary
basis.


 


13.       Successors
and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, this Agreement
will be binding upon the Grantee and the Grantee’s beneficiary, if applicable.


 


14.       Captions.
Captions provided herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the scope, meaning, intent or interpretation of the provisions
of this Agreement.


 


15.       Severability.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the Plan or this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, and each provision of the Plan and this Agreement shall be severable and
enforceable to the extent permitted by law.


 


16.       Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute
one and the same instrument. Counterpart signature pages to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic
mail in portable document format (.pdf), or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial
appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing an original signature.

Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without
regard to the provisions governing conflict of laws.

hereby acknowledges that all decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Board of Directors, or a Committee thereof, in
respect of the Plan, this Agreement and the RSUs shall be final and conclusive. The Grantee acknowledges that there may be adverse
tax consequences upon disposition of the underlying shares and that the Grantee should consult a tax advisor prior to such disposition.


 


19.       Section
409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed
and interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the requirements for avoiding additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A
of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payment and benefits provided under this
Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes,
penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Grantee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the
Code. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any compensation or benefit payable hereunder that constitutes
a deferral of compensation under Code Section 409A shall be subject to the following:


 


(a)       no
amount or benefit that is payable upon a termination of employment or services from the Company shall be payable unless such termination
also meets the requirements of a “separation from service” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), and references
in the Agreement to “termination”, “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean a “separation
from service;”


 






    	 	4	 



     


    

 


(b)       in
the event that any payment to the Grantee or any benefit hereunder is made upon, or as a result of, the Grantee’s termination of
employment, and the Grantee is a “specified employee” (as that term is defined under Section 409A of the Code) at the
time the Grantee becomes entitled to any such payment or benefit, and provided further that such payment or benefit does not otherwise
qualify for an applicable exemption from Section 409A of the Code, then no such payment or benefit will be paid or commenced to
be paid to the Grantee under this Agreement until the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the Grantee’s death or (ii)
six months and one day following the Grantee’s termination of employment (the “Delay Period”). Any payments
which the Grantee would otherwise have received during the Delay Period will be payable to the Grantee in a lump sum on the date
that is six months and one day following the effective date of the termination, and any remaining compensation and benefits due
under the Agreement shall be paid or provided as otherwise set forth herein;


 


(c)       whenever
a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period, the actual date of payment within such specified period shall be within
the sole discretion of the Company, and the Grantee shall have no right (directly or indirectly) to determine the year in which
such payment is made.  In the event a payment period straddles two consecutive calendar years, the payment shall be made in
the later of such calendar years;


 


(d)       each
separately identified amount and each installment payment to which the Grantee is entitled to payment shall be deemed to be a separate
payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code; and


 


(e)       the
payment of any compensation or benefit may not be accelerated except to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code.
