W I T N E S S E T H 

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) has determined that it
is in the best interests of the Company to provide that the Grantee receive a portion of his compensation in the form of restricted shares of the common stock of the Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions provided in this Agreement,
thereby encouraging stock ownership, and permitting the acquisition of an equity interest, in the Company; and 
 WHEREAS, on the
Grant Date, the Company and the Grantee are entering into an employment agreement governing the terms of the Grantee’s employment with the Company (the “Employment Agreement”; any capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement
shall have the same defined meanings as in the Employment Agreement); and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5(a) of the Employment
Agreement, as part of the Grantee’s compensation, the Company is granting a matching restricted stock award to the Grantee, and the Grantee is accepting such grant, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual promises contained herein and of other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

1.    GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK. Subject to the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement, the Company
hereby grants to the Grantee 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value of $0.001 per share (the “Restricted Stock”), as of the Grant Date (the “Restricted Stock”). The extent to which the Grantee’s
rights and interest in the Restricted Stock becomes vested and non-forfeitable shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2 of this Agreement. 

1.    VESTING. 

(a)    The vesting of the Grantee’s rights and interest in the Restricted Stock shall be determined in accordance with
this Section 2. The Restricted Stock shall become fully vested on the latest date (the “Purchase Date”) on which the fair market value of the cumulative amount of shares that the Grantee purchases on the open market equals
$500,000 (the “Purchased Stock”), so long as the Purchase Date is on or before March 15, 2018. 

(b)    Shares issued pursuant to the Restricted Stock shall not be transferable for a period of one year following the
Purchase Date and certificates representing such shares shall have a legend to that effect. 

2.    FORFEITURE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Grantee shall immediately forfeit all
of his rights and interest in the Restricted Stock upon the earlier to occur of the following: (a) the termination of his employment with the Company for any reason before the Restricted Stock becomes vested in accordance with Section 2 of
this Agreement, and (b) the Grantee’s failure to purchase, on the open market, the Purchased Stock on or before March 15, 2018. 

3.    RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the shares of Restricted Stock
are not transferable unless and until they become vested in accordance with this Agreement, otherwise than by will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution. The terms of this Agreement shall








 
be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Grantee. Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the first sentence of this Section, any attempt to effect a
Transfer of any shares of Restricted Stock prior to the date on which the shares become vested shall be void ab initio. For purposes of this Agreement, “Transfer” shall mean any sale, transfer, encumbrance, gift,
donation, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, or other disposition, whether similar or dissimilar to those previously enumerated, whether voluntary or involuntary, and including, but not limited to, any disposition by operation of law, by court
order, by judicial process, or by foreclosure, levy or attachment. 
 4.    DELIVERY OF SHARES. 

(a)    Issuance of Stock Certificates and Legends. One or more stock certificates evidencing the Restricted Stock
shall be issued in the name of the Grantee but shall be held and retained by the Records Administrator of the Company until the date (the “Applicable Date”) on which the shares (or a portion thereof) subject to this Restricted Stock
award become vested pursuant to Section 2 hereof, subject to the provisions of Section 3 hereof. All such stock certificates shall bear the following legends, along with such other legends that the Committee shall deem necessary and
appropriate or which are otherwise required or indicated pursuant to any applicable stockholders agreement: 
 THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL VESTING AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS AS SET FORTH IN THE RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER.
SUCH RESTRICTIONS ARE BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES, AND INCLUDE VESTING CONDITIONS WHICH MAY RESULT IN THE COMPLETE FORFEITURE OF THE SHARES. 

(b)    Stock Powers. The Grantee shall deposit with the Company stock powers or other instruments of transfer or
assignment, duly endorsed in blank with signature(s) guaranteed, corresponding to each certificate representing shares of Restricted Stock until such shares become vested, on a form attached hereto as Exhibit A. If the Grantee shall fail to
provide the Company with any such stock power or other instrument of transfer or assignment, the Grantee hereby irrevocably appoints the Secretary of the Company as his
attorney-in-fact, with full power of appointment and substitution, to execute and deliver any such power or other instrument which may be necessary to effectuate the
transfer of the Restricted Stock (or assignment of distributions thereon) on the books and records of the Company. In addition, the Company may require the spouse of the Grantee, if any, to execute and deliver to the Company the Consent of Spouse in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. 
 (c)    Delivery of Stock Certificates. On or after each vesting
date, upon written request to the Company by the Grantee, the Company shall promptly cause a new certificate or certificates to be issued for and with respect to all shares that become vested on that vesting date, which certificate(s) shall be
delivered to the Grantee as soon as administratively practicable after the date of receipt by the Company of the Grantee’s written request. The new certificate or certificates shall continue to bear those legends and endorsements that the
Company shall deem necessary or appropriate (including those relating to restrictions on transferability and/or obligations and restrictions under the securities laws). 

5.    RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO RESTRICTED STOCK. 

(a)    General. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, including with respect to cash dividends (which are
addressed below), the Grantee shall have, with respect to all of the shares of Restricted Stock, whether vested or unvested, all of the rights of a holder of shares of common stock of the Company, including without limitation (i) the right to
vote such Restricted Stock, and (ii) the rights available to all holders of shares of common stock of the Company upon any merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation or dissolution, stock split up, stock dividend or recapitalization
undertaken by the Company; provided, however, that all of such rights shall be subject to the terms, provisions, conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement (including without limitation conditions under which all such


  
 2 








 
rights shall be forfeited). Any Shares issued to the Grantee as a dividend with respect to shares of Restricted Stock shall have the same status and bear the same legend as the shares of
Restricted Stock and shall be held by the Company, if the shares of Restricted Stock that such dividend is attributed to is being so held, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. In addition, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
herein, any cash dividends declared with respect to shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement shall be held in escrow by the Committee until such time as the shares of Restricted Stock that such cash dividends are attributed to shall
become vested, and in the event that such shares of Restricted Stock are subsequently forfeited, the cash dividends attributable to such portion shall be forfeited as well. 

(b)    Adjustments to Shares. If at any time while this Agreement is in effect, there shall be any increase or
decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock through the declaration of a stock dividend or through any recapitalization resulting in a stock split-up, combination
or exchange of such shares, then and in that event, the Committee shall make any adjustments it deems fair and appropriate, in view of such change, in the number of shares of Restricted Stock then subject to this Agreement. If any such adjustment
shall result in a fractional Share, such fraction shall be disregarded. 
 (c)    No Restrictions on Certain
Transactions. Notwithstanding any term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the existence of this Agreement, or of any outstanding Restricted Stock awarded hereunder, shall not affect in any manner the right, power or authority of the
Company to make, authorize or consummate: (i) any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business; (ii) any merger, consolidation or similar transaction by or
of the Company; (iii) any offer, issue or sale by the Company of any capital stock of the Company, including any equity or debt securities, or preferred or preference stock that would rank prior to or on parity with the Restricted Stock and/or
that would include, have or possess other rights, benefits and/or preferences superior to those that the Restricted Stock includes, has or possesses, or any warrants, options or rights with respect to any of the foregoing; (iv) the dissolution
or liquidation of the Company; (v) any sale, transfer or assignment of all or any part of the stock, assets or business of the Company; or (vi) any other corporate transaction, act or proceeding (whether of a similar character or
otherwise). 
 6.    TAX CONSEQUENCES. 

(a)    Section 83(b) Election. If the Grantee properly elects, within thirty (30) days of the Grant Date, to
include in gross income for federal income tax purposes an amount equal to the fair market value (as of the Grant Date) of the Restricted Stock pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C, the
Grantee shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay to the Company any federal, state or local income taxes required to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock. If the Grantee shall fail to make such tax payments as are
required, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any Shares that otherwise would be issued to the Grantee under this Agreement)
otherwise due to the Grantee any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock. 

(b)    No Section 83(b) Election. If the Grantee does not properly make the election described in paragraph 7(a)
above, the Grantee shall, no later than the date or dates as of which the restrictions referred to in this Agreement hereof shall lapse, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee for payment of, any federal, state or
local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without limitation the vesting thereof), and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any
kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any Shares that otherwise would be distributed to the Grantee under this Agreement) otherwise due to Grantee any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with
respect to the Restricted Stock. 
 (c)    Grantee’s Responsibilities for Tax Consequences. Tax consequences
on the Grantee (including without limitation federal, state, local and foreign income tax consequences) with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without limitation the grant, vesting and/or forfeiture thereof) are the sole responsibility of


  
 3 








 
the Grantee. Upon request of the Grantee, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, deduct from any payment of any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any Shares that
otherwise would be distributed to the Grantee under this Agreement) otherwise due to Grantee any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock. The Grantee shall consult with his own
personal accountant(s) and/or tax advisor(s) regarding these matters, the making of a Section 83(b) election, and the Grantee’s filing, withholding and payment (or tax liability) obligations. 

7.    NO EFFECT ON EMPLOYMENT. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee the right to
continue in the employment of the Company or affect any right which the Company may have to terminate the employment of the Grantee regardless of the effect of such termination of employment on the rights of the Grantee under or this Agreement. If
the Grantee’s employment is terminated for any reason whatsoever (and whether lawful or otherwise), he will not be entitled to claim any compensation for or in respect of any consequent diminution or extinction of his rights or benefits (actual
or prospective) under this Agreement or any award. The rights and obligations of the Grantee under the terms of his employment with the Company will not be affected by his participation in this Agreement, and this Agreement does not form part of any
contract of employment between the Grantee and the Company or any Subsidiary. The granting of awards is entirely at the discretion of the Committee, and the Grantee shall not in any circumstances have any right to be granted an award. 

8.    CLAWBACK. 

(a)    The Company may: (x) cause the cancellation of the Restricted Stock; (y) require reimbursement with
respect to the Restricted Stock; and (z) effect any other right of recoupment of equity or other compensation provided under this Agreement or otherwise in accordance with any Company policies generally applicable to the Company’s officers
and/or directors that currently exist or that may from time to time be adopted or modified in the future by the Company and/or applicable law (each, a “Clawback Policy”), provided that the following conditions are satisfied: (1) there
is an accounting restatement of the Company’s financial statements or results and (2) the restatement results from a noncompliance by the Company with any requirements under or related to the federal securities laws that is material,
injurious to the Company or was the result of actions with bad intent. In such an event, the claw back will be in an amount of up to the total economic gain from any stock-based grants within the five-year period preceding the restatement. By
accepting the Restricted Stock, the Grantee agrees to be bound to any existing or future Clawback Policy adopted by the Company, or any amendments that may from time to time be made to the Clawback Policy in the future by the Company, as required to
comply with applicable laws or stock exchange requirements, and is further agreeing that all of the Grantee’s equity awards may be unilaterally amended by the Company, without the Grantee’s consent, to the extent that the Company in its
discretion determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any Clawback Policy to the extent required to comply with applicable laws or stock exchange requirements. 

(b)    If the Grantee, without the consent of the Company, while employed by or providing services to the Company or after
termination of such employment or service, violates a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement
or otherwise violates the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, Code of Conduct and Ethics, Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officer or any other corporate governance materials specified by the SEC or
exchange on which common stock of the Company is listed, then, if such violation is material and injurious to the Company, or was the result of actions with bad intent: (i) any outstanding, vested or unvested, earned or unearned portion of the
Restricted Stock may, at the Committee’s discretion, be canceled and (ii) the Committee, in its discretion, may require the Grantee or other person to whom any payment has been made or shares or other property have been transferred in
connection with the Restricted Stock to forfeit and pay over to the Company, on demand, all or any portion of the gain (whether or not taxable) realized upon the sale of any Restricted Stock. 

9.    GOVERNING LAWS. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of
the State of Florida.

illegal or unenforceable provision or portion thereof had never been contained in this Agreement.
