 ARTICLE 3 
 COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS 

3.1 Initial Bonus and Base Salary. On the IPO Date, Executive shall receive a cash bonus of $250,000.00. Commencing on the first
day of the calendar month following the IPO Date (the “Compensation Start Date”), Executive shall receive a minimum annual base salary of $175,000.00. Executive’s annual base salary shall be reviewed by the Board of Directors
of TMG (or a committee thereof) on an annual basis beginning on January 1, 2013, and, in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of TMG (or such committee), such annual base salary may be increased, but not decreased, effective as of
January 1 of each year. Executive’s annual base salary shall be paid in equal installments in accordance with Company’s standard policy regarding payment of compensation to executives, but no less frequently than monthly. 

3.2 Incentive Compensation. Beginning on January 1, 2013, Executive shall be eligible to receive incentive compensation each
calendar year pursuant to such terms as shall be determined in the sole discretion of and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of TMG and approved by the Board of Directors of TMG, which compensation, if any, shall be
paid by Company to Executive as (i) a lump-sum cash payment and/or (ii) an equity-based or cash award pursuant to the Plan. Any such award will be evidenced by an award agreement, in the form customarily used by TMG to make similar awards

 -3-










 
its affiliated entities. To the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), incentive compensation shall be
paid between January 1 and March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year to which the incentive compensation relates. 
 3.3 Restricted Stock Award. Provided Executive is employed by Company on the IPO Date, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of TMG shall award on the IPO Date to Executive pursuant
to the Plan such number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearer whole share) as shall be determined by dividing the Incentive Pool (as defined below) by the IPO Price (being the price to the public reflected in the prospectus of TMG
relating to the IPO that is first filed by TMG with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended). “Incentive Pool” means the greater of (i) $2,500,000.00 and
(ii) the sum of $1,150,000.00 and the product obtained by multiplying $150,000.00 by the number of calendar months between the Effective Date and the last day of the month in which the IPO Date occurs. This award will be evidenced by a
restricted stock award agreement, in the form customarily used by TMG to make similar awards to other executives of its affiliated entities, a copy of which in substantially final form is attached hereto as Annex B, and will contain forfeiture
restrictions that will lapse 20% on the first anniversary date of the IPO Date and 20% on each of the next four anniversaries of the IPO Date thereafter, provided Executive continues to be employed by Company on each such date. Except as described
above, this award shall not be subject to performance target-levels. 
 3.4 Other Perquisites. Commencing on the
Compensation Start Date, Executive shall be afforded the following benefits as incidences of his employment: Executive and, to the extent applicable, Executive’s spouse, dependents and beneficiaries, shall be entitled to participate in all
employee benefit programs, including insurance programs, including improvements or modifications of the same, which are now, or may hereafter be, available to the other executive officers of Company. Company shall not, however, by reason of this
Section be obligated to institute, maintain, or refrain from changing, amending, or discontinuing, any such plan or program, so long as such changes are similarly applicable to the other executive officers of Company. 

3.5 Expense Reimbursement. During the term of this Agreement, Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable expenses
incurred by him in the course of performing his duties under this Agreement which are consistent with Company’s and its affiliates’ policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses,
subject in all instances to Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such expenses. Such reimbursement shall be made as soon as practicable and in no event later than the end of the calendar year following the
calendar year in which the expenses were incurred. 
 3.6 Vacations. Commencing on the Compensation Start Date and during
the term of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to three weeks paid vacation during each 12-month period. Any unused portion of vacation days at the end of a 12-month period may not be rolled over into the next 12-month period. Executive

ARTICLE 4 

PROTECTION OF INFORMATION 
 4.1 Disclosure to Executive. Company shall, and its affiliates may, disclose to Executive, or place Executive in a position to have access to or develop, trade secrets or confidential information
of Company and/or its affiliates, including the Consolidated Operations; and/or shall entrust Executive with business opportunities relating to Company and/or its affiliates, including the Consolidated Operations; and/or shall place Executive in a
position to develop business goodwill with respect to Company and/or its affiliates, including the Consolidated Operations. 

4.2 Property of Company. All documents, drawings, memoranda, notes, records, files, correspondence, manuals, models,
specifications, computer programs, e-mail, voice mail, electronic databases, maps, and all other writings or materials of any type embodying any information relating to Company or its affiliates, including the Consolidated Operations, are and shall

 4.3 No Unauthorized Use or Disclosure. Executive will not, at any time during or after Executive’s employment by
Company, make any unauthorized disclosure of any confidential business information or trade secrets of Company or its affiliates, including the Consolidated Operations, or make any use thereof, except in the carrying out of Executive’s
employment responsibilities hereunder. Affiliates of Company shall be third party beneficiaries of Executive’s obligations under this Section. As a result of Executive’s employment by Company, Executive may also from time to time have
access to, or knowledge of, confidential business information or trade secrets of third parties, such as customers, suppliers, partners, joint venturers, and the like, of Company or its affiliates, including the Consolidated Operations. Executive
also agrees to preserve and protect the confidentiality of such third party confidential information and trade secrets to the same extent, and on the same basis, as Company’s confidential business information and trade secrets. 

4.4 Remedies. Executive acknowledges that money damages would not be sufficient remedy for any breach of this Article by
Executive, and Company and its affiliates shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach without the necessity of posting any bond. Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive
remedies for a breach of this Article, but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity to Company and its affiliates, including the recovery of damages from Executive.

 ARTICLE 5 
 NON-COMPETITION OBLIGATIONS 
 5.1 In General. As part of the
consideration for the compensation and benefits to be paid to Executive hereunder; to protect the trade secrets and confidential information of Company and the Consolidated Operations that have been and will in the future be disclosed or entrusted
to Executive, whether under Section 4.1 or otherwise, the business goodwill of Company and the Consolidated Operations that has been and will in the future be developed by Executive, or the business opportunities that have been and will in the
future be disclosed or entrusted to Executive by Company and its affiliates; and as an additional incentive for Company to enter into this Agreement, Company and Executive agree to the noncompetition obligations hereunder. Executive shall not,
directly or indirectly for Executive or for others: 
 (i) engage in any business competitive with the
Consolidated Operations during the term of employment of Executive in the states in which Executive renders advice or services for, or in which Executive has access to confidential information of, Company and the Consolidated Operations (the
“Geographical Area”); or 
 (ii) render advice or services to, be employed by, acquire an
ownership interest in, or otherwise assist, any other person, association, or entity who is engaged, directly or indirectly, in any business competitive with the Consolidated Operations during the term of employment of Executive in such Geographical
Area with respect to such competitive business, except that Executive may hold up to 2% of the outstanding shares of any publicly held company engaged in such competitive activities; or 

(iii) solicit or accept business or business transactions from or with persons, associations, entities or customers with
whom Executive had a business relationship or about whom Executive had possessed confidential information during the term of employment of Executive; 
 (iv) solicit, induce or attempt to induce any other Company employee to leave the employment of Company or to alter that employee’s relationship with Company; 

it being understood and agreed that the business conducted by Company shall include without limitation (i) the Consolidated Operations, and
(ii) any roll-up, merger, consolidation or similar transaction resulting in the combination of companies involved in any aspect of the Consolidated Operations. The noncompetition obligations set forth above shall apply only during the period
that Executive is employed by Company and for two years thereafter if Executive’s employment by Company is terminated pursuant to Section 2.2(ii) or Section 2.3(ii). If Executive is found to have breached any promise made in this
Section 5.1, the two-year period of Executive’s obligations specified in this Section will be extended by a month for each month in which Executive was in breach so that Company is provided the benefit of the full two-year period.

 5.2 Non-disparagement. At no time during or after Executive’s employment by Company shall Executive take any
action or make any statement that could be construed as disparaging to Company or its affiliates, including the Consolidated Operations, or their respective policies, management, employees, owners or investors. At no time during or after
Executive’s employment by Company shall Company, and Company shall cause its affiliates not to, take any action or make any statement that could be construed as disparaging to Executive.

 5.3 Enforcement and Remedies. Executive acknowledges that money damages would not be
sufficient remedy for any breach of this Article by Executive, and Company shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach without the necessity of posting any bond. Such remedies
shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a breach of this Article, but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity to Company, including without limitation, the recovery of damages from Executive. 

5.4 Reformation. It is expressly understood and agreed that Company and Executive consider the restrictions contained in this
Article to be reasonable and necessary to protect the proprietary information applicable to the Consolidated Operations. Nevertheless, if any of the aforesaid restrictions are found by a court having jurisdiction to be unreasonable, or overly broad
as to geographic area or time, or otherwise unenforceable, the parties intend for the restrictions therein set forth to be modified by such court so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified by the court, to be fully enforced.

(iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Company’s other applicable plans and agreements, all of the outstanding stock options, restricted awards and other equity based awards granted by Company to Executive that have

 6.3 By Company. If
Executive’s employment hereunder shall be terminated by Company prior to expiration of the term (including any automatic extensions) provided in Section 2.1, then, upon such termination, regardless of the reason therefor, all compensation

therefor, all compensation and benefits to Executive hereunder shall terminate contemporaneously with the termination of such employment; provided, however, that if such termination occurs for a reason encompassed by Section 2.3(i), then
Company shall provide Executive with the Termination Benefits. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.16, any lump sum cash payment due to Executive pursuant to this Section shall be paid to Executive within five business days of the date of
Executive’s termination of employment with Company. 
 6.5 Death or Disability of Executive. This Agreement shall
terminate automatically upon Executive’s death or Disability, as defined in the Plan. If Company believes a Disability of Executive has occurred during the term of Executive’s employment hereunder, Company may give to Executive written
notice in accordance with Section 2.5. In such event, Executive’s employment with Company shall terminate effective on the thirtieth day after receipt of such notice by Executive (the “Disability Effective Date”), unless
Executive shall have (i) returned to full-time performance of his duties prior to the Disability Effective Date and (ii) demonstrated to the reasonable satisfaction of the sole member of Company that Executive is capable of performing
essential functions of his position with or without reasonable accommodation on a full-time basis going forward. In the event of a termination pursuant to Executive’s death or Disability, Executive or Executive’s designated beneficiary (or
his estate if Executive does not have a beneficiary designation on file with Company for this purpose), as the case may be, shall be entitled to receive a lump-sum payment equal to twelve months of his base salary at the rate in effect under
Section 3.1 on the date of such termination, such payment to be made as soon as practicable following the date of death or Disability Effective Date, but in no event later than the later of (i) the end of the calendar year of the date of

 6.6 No Duty to Mitigate Losses. Executive shall have no duty to find new employment
following the termination of his employment under circumstances which require Company to pay any amount to Executive pursuant to this Article 6. Any salary or remuneration received by Executive from a third party for the providing of personal
services (whether by employment or by functioning as an independent contractor) following the termination of his employment under circumstances pursuant to which this Article 6 apply shall not reduce Company’s obligation to make a payment to
Executive (or the amount of such payment) pursuant to the terms of this Article 6.

damages.

appropriate, in its sole discretion, from time to time. The Committee’s authority shall include, but not be limited to, the authority to (i) determine the type of Awards to be granted under the Plan; (ii) select Award recipients and
determine the extent of their participation; (iii) determine Performance Criteria no later than such time as required to ensure that an underlying Award which is intended to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code so complies; and
(iv) establish all other terms, conditions, and limitations applicable to Awards, Award programs and, if applicable, the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant thereto. The Committee may accelerate or defer the vesting or payment of Awards,
cancel or modify outstanding Awards, waive any conditions or restrictions imposed with respect to Awards or the Common Stock issued pursuant to Awards and make any and all other determinations that it deems appropriate with respect to the
administration of the Plan, subject to (A) the limitations contained in Section 4(d) of the Plan and Section 409A of the Code with respect to all Participants and (B) the provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code with respect
to Covered Employees to the extent that an Award is intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. 
 (b) Administration of the Plan. The administration of the Plan shall be managed by the Committee. All determinations of the Committee shall be made by a majority of its members either present in
person or participating by conference telephone at a meeting or by written consent. The Committee shall have the power to prescribe and modify the forms of Award Agreement, correct any defect, supply any omission or clarify any inconsistency in the
Plan and/or in any Award Agreement and take such actions and make such administrative determinations that the Committee deems appropriate in its sole discretion. Any decision of the Committee in the administration of the Plan, as described herein,
shall be final, binding and conclusive on all parties concerned, including the Company, its stockholders and Subsidiaries and all Participants. 
 (c) Delegation of Authority. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Committee may at any time delegate to one or more officers or directors of the Company some or all of its authority over
the administration of the Plan, with respect to individuals who are not Section 16(a) Officers or Covered Employees. 
 (d)
Prohibition Against Repricing. Except as set forth in Section 6(e) hereof, the terms of outstanding Awards may not be amended to reduce the exercise price of outstanding Options or SARs or cancel outstanding Options or SARs in exchange
for cash, other Awards, or Options and SARs with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original Options or SARs without shareholder approval. 

  
 A-5










 (e) Indemnification. No member of the Committee or any other Person to whom any duty
or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan has been delegated shall be personally liable for any action or determination made with respect to the Plan, except for his or her own willful misconduct or as expressly provided
by statute. The members of the Committee and its delegates, including any employee with responsibilities relating to the administration of the Plan, shall be entitled to indemnification and reimbursement from the Company, to the extent permitted by
applicable law and the By-laws and policies of the Company. In the performance of its functions under the Plan, the Committee (and each member of the Committee and its delegates) shall be entitled to rely upon information and advice furnished by the
Company’s officers, accountants, counsel and any other party they deem appropriate, and neither the Committee nor any such Person shall be liable for any action taken or not taken in reliance upon any such advice. 

 

	5.	Participation 

 (a) Eligible
Employees. Subject to Section 7 hereof, the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, which Eligible Recipients shall be granted Awards under the Plan. 
 (b) Participation outside of the United States. In order to facilitate the granting of Awards to Employees who are foreign nationals or who are employed outside of the U.S., the Committee may
provide for such special terms and conditions, including, without limitation, substitutes for Awards, as the Committee may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom. The Committee may approve any
supplements to, or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of, this Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this Section 5(b) without thereby affecting the terms of this Plan as in effect for any other
purpose, and the appropriate officer of the Company may certify any such documents as having been approved and adopted pursuant to properly delegated authority; provided, that no such supplements, amendments, restatements or alternative versions
shall include any provisions that are inconsistent with the intent and purpose of this Plan, as then in effect; and further provided that any such action taken with respect to a Covered Employee shall be taken in compliance with Section 162(m)
of the Code to the extent that an Award is intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code and that any such action taken with respect to an Employee who is subject to Section 409A of the
Code shall be taken in compliance with Section 409A of the Code. 
  

	6.	Available Shares of Common Stock 

 (a) Shares Subject to the Plan. Common Stock issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan may be shares that have been authorized but unissued, or have been previously issued and reacquired by
the Company, or both. Reacquired shares of Common Stock may consist of shares purchased in open market transactions or otherwise. Subject to the following provisions of this Section 6, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be
issued to Participants pursuant to Awards shall not exceed an aggregate of             shares of Common Stock, of which
                    
1 shares may be granted as ISOs. The foregoing aggregate 

 

	1 	 10 percent of all shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Effective Date, other than outstanding Restricted Stock issued in Consolidating
Transactions. 



  
 A-6










 
number also includes up to         shares that are intended to be issued on the Effective Date in the form of Restricted Stock, the lapse of forfeiture
restrictions with respect to which will be conditioned upon certain Performance Criteria, to certain new employees of the Company that transitioned from the businesses that will be consolidated into the Company on the Effective Date as described in
the IPO Registration Statement (each a “Consolidating Transaction”). 
 (b) Forfeited and Expired Awards.
Awards (or a portion of an Award) made under the Plan which, at any time, are forfeited, expire or are canceled or settled without issuance of shares of Common Stock (collectively, the “Forfeited Shares”) shall not count towards the
maximum number of shares that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in Section 6(a) and shall be available for future Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any and all shares of Common Stock that are (i) tendered in
payment of an Option exercise price (whether by attestation or by other means); (ii) withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation; (iii) repurchased by the Company with Option exercise proceeds; (iv) covered by an
SAR (to the extent that it is exercised and settled in shares of Common Stock, without regard to the number of shares of Common Stock that are actually issued to the Participant upon exercise); or (v) Forfeited Shares that were issued as
Restricted Stock in a Consolidating Transaction shall be considered issued pursuant to the Plan and shall not be added to the maximum number of shares that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in Section 6(a). 

(c) Other Items Not Included in Allocation. The maximum number of shares that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in
Section 6(a) shall not be affected by (i) the payment in cash of dividends or dividend equivalents in connection with outstanding Awards; (ii) the granting or payment of stock-denominated Awards that by their terms may be settled only
in cash or the granting of Cash Awards; or (iii) Awards that are granted in connection with a transaction between the Company or a Subsidiary and another entity or business in substitution or exchange for, or conversion adjustment, assumption
or replacement of, awards previously granted by such other entity to any individuals who have become Eligible Recipients as a result of such transaction. 
 (d) Other Limitations on Shares that May be Granted under the Plan. Subject to Section 6(e), the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be granted to any Covered Employee during a
calendar year in the form of Options, SARs, and/or Stock Awards intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code shall not exceed
            2 shares. Determinations made under this
Section 6(d) with respect to Covered Employees shall be made in a manner consistent with Section 162(m) of the Code. 

(e) Adjustments. In the event of any change in the Company’s capital structure, including, but not limited to, a change in
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, on account of (i) any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or any similar equity restructuring or (ii) any combination or exchange of equity securities, merger, consolidation,
recapitalization, reorganization, or divesture or any other similar event affecting the Company’s capital structure, to reflect such change in the Company’s capital structure, the Committee shall make appropriate equitable adjustments to
the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan as set forth in Section 6(a) and to the maximum number of 

 

	2 	 Largest number of shares of Restricted Stock issuable in any Consolidating Transaction.




  
 A-7










 
shares that may be granted to any single individual pursuant to Section 6(d). In the event of any extraordinary dividend, divestiture or other distribution (other than ordinary cash
dividends) of assets to stockholders, or any transaction or event described above, to the extent necessary to prevent the enlargement or diminution of the rights of Participants, the Committee shall make appropriate equitable adjustments to the
number or kind of shares subject to an outstanding Award, the exercise price applicable to an outstanding Award (subject to the limitation contained in Section 4(d), and/or any measure of performance that relates to an outstanding Award,
including any applicable Performance Criteria. Any adjustment to ISOs under this Section 6(e) shall be made only to the extent not constituting a “modification” within the meaning of Section 424(h)(3) of the Code, and any
adjustments under this Section 6(e) shall be made in a manner that does not adversely affect the exemption provided pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. With respect to Awards subject to Section 409A of the Code, any adjustments
under this Section 6(e) shall conform to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Furthermore, with respect to Awards intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, such
adjustments shall be made only to the extent that the Committee determines that such adjustments may be made without causing the Company to be denied a tax deduction on account of Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding anything set forth
herein to the contrary, the Committee may, in its discretion, decline to adjust any Award made to a Participant, if it determines that such adjustment would violate applicable law or result in adverse tax consequences to the Participant or to the
Company. 
  

	7.	Awards Under The Plan 

 Awards under the Plan may
be granted as Options, SARs, Stock Awards or Cash Awards, as described below. Awards may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. 

(a) Options. Options granted under the Plan shall be designated as Nonqualified Stock Options or ISOs. Options shall expire after
such period, not to exceed ten years, as may be determined by the Committee. If an Option is exercisable in installments, such installments or portions thereof that become exercisable shall remain exercisable until the Option expires or is otherwise
canceled pursuant to its terms. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7(a), Options shall be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions, and limitations determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, from time to time.

 (i) 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 Committee from time to time in accordance with the Plan. At the discretion of the Committee, ISOs may be granted only to an employee of the Company or a
Subsidiary. 
 (ii) Exercise Price. The Committee shall determine the exercise price per share for each Option, which
shall not be less than 100 percent of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock for which the Option is exercisable at the time of grant. 
 (iii) Exercise of Options. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions relating to vesting and exercisability, as determined by the Committee, and upon provision for


  
 A-8










 
the payment in full of the exercise price and applicable taxes due, the Participant shall be entitled to exercise the Option and receive the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in
connection with the Option exercise. The shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the Option exercise may be subject to such conditions and restrictions as the Committee may determine, from time to time. The exercise price of an Option and
applicable withholding taxes relating to an Option exercise may be paid by methods permitted by the Committee from time to time including, but not limited to, (l) a cash payment; (2) tendering (either actually or by attestation) shares of
Common Stock owned by the Participant (for any minimum period of time that the Committee, in its discretion, may specify), valued at the Fair Market Value at the time of exercise; (3) arranging to have the appropriate number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of an Option withheld or sold; or (4) any combination of the above. Additionally, the Committee may provide that an Option may be “net exercised,” meaning that upon the exercise of an Option or any
portion thereof, the Company shall deliver the greatest number of whole shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise not in excess of the difference between (x) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of
Common Stock subject to the Option (or the portion of such Option then being exercised) and (y) the aggregate exercise price for all such shares of Common Stock under the Option (or the portion thereof then being exercised) plus (to the extent
it would not give rise to adverse accounting consequences pursuant to applicable accounting principles) the amount of withholding tax due upon exercise, with any fractional share that would result from such equation to be payable in cash, to the
extent practicable, or canceled. 
 (iv) ISO Grants to 10 percent Stockholders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Section 7(a), if an ISO is granted to a Participant who owns stock representing more than ten percent of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, its “parent corporation” (as such term is defined in
Section 424 (e) of the Code) or a Subsidiary, the term of the Option shall not exceed five years from the time of grant of such Option and the exercise price shall be at least 110 percent of the Fair Market Value (at the time of grant) of
the Common Stock subject to the Option. 
 (v) $100,000 Per Year Limitation/or ISOs. To the extent the aggregate Fair
Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of the Common Stock 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. 
 (vi) Disqualifying Dispositions. Each Participant awarded an ISO under the Plan shall
notify the Company in writing immediately after the date he or she makes a “disqualifying disposition” of any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of such ISO. A “disqualifying disposition” is any disposition
(including any sale) of such Common Stock before the later of (i) two years after the time of grant of the ISO and (ii) one year after the date the Participant acquired the shares of Common Stock by exercising the ISO. The Company may, if
determined by the Committee and in accordance with procedures established by it, retain possession of any shares of Common Stock 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 Stock. 

  
 A-9










 (b) Stock Appreciation Rights. A SAR represents the right to receive a payment in
cash, Common Stock, or a combination thereof, in an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a specified number of shares of Common Stock at the time the SAR is exercised over the exercise price of such SAR, which shall be no less than
100 percent of the Fair Market Value of the same number of shares at the time the SAR was granted. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7(b), SARs shall be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations determined by the
Committee, in its sole discretion, from time to time. A SAR may only be granted to an Eligible Recipient to whom an Option could be granted under the Plan. 
 (c) Stock Awards. 
 (i) Form of Awards. The Committee may grant
Awards that are payable in shares of Common Stock or denominated in units equivalent in value to shares of Common Stock or are otherwise based on or related to shares of Common Stock (“Stock Awards”), including, but not limited to,
Restricted Stock, Deferred Stock and Stock Units. Stock Awards shall be subject to such terms, conditions (including, without limitation, service-based and performance-based vesting conditions), restrictions and limitations as the Committee may
determine to be applicable to such Stock Awards, in its sole discretion, from time to time. 
 (ii) Stock Payment. If not
prohibited by applicable law, the Committee may issue unrestricted shares of Common Stock, alone or in tandem with other Awards, in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall from time to time in its sole discretion
determine; provided, however, that to the extent Section 409A of the Code is applicable to the grant of unrestricted shares of Common Stock that are issued in tandem with another Award, then such tandem Awards shall conform to the requirements
of Section 409A of the Code. A Stock Payment may be granted as, or in payment of, a bonus (including, without limitation, any compensation that is intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of
Section 162(m) of the Code), or to provide incentives or recognize special achievements or contributions. 
 (iii)
Restricted Stock. Restricted Stock shall be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions, and limitations determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, from time to time. The number of shares of Restricted Stock allocable to an Award
under the Plan shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. 
 (iv) Deferred Stock. Subject to
Section 409A of the Code to the extent applicable, Deferred Stock shall be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, from time to time. A Participant who receives an
Award of Deferred Stock shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock allocable to his or her Award, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, from time to time, at the end of a specified deferral period determined
by the Committee. Awards of Deferred Stock represent only an unfunded, unsecured promise to deliver shares in the future and do not give Participants any greater rights than those of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. 

(v) Stock Units. A Stock Unit is an Award denominated in shares of Common Stock that may be settled either in shares of Common
Stock or in cash, in the discretion 

  
 A-10










 
of the Committee, and, subject to Section 409A of the Code to the extent applicable, shall be subject to such other terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations determined by the
Committee from time to time in its sole discretion. 
 (d) Cash Awards. The Committee may grant Awards that are payable
to Participants in cash, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan, and, except as otherwise provided in this Section 7(d), such Cash Awards shall be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions, and
limitations determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, from time to time. Awards granted pursuant to this Section 7(d) may be granted with value and payment contingent upon the achievement of Performance Criteria, and, if so granted,
such criteria shall relate to periods of performance equal to or exceeding one calendar year. The maximum amount that any Covered Employee may receive with respect to a Cash Award granted pursuant to this Section 7(d) in respect of any annual
performance period is $            3 and for any other performance period in excess of one year, such amount multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the performance period and the denominator of which is
twelve. Payments earned hereunder may be decreased or, with respect to any Participant who is not a Covered Employee, increased in the sole discretion of the Committee based on such factors as it deems appropriate. No payment shall be made to a
Covered Employee under this Section 7(d) prior to the certification by the Committee that the Performance Criteria have been attained. The Committee may establish such other rules applicable to Cash Awards to the extent not inconsistent with
Section 162(m) of the Code. 
  

	8.	Forfeiture Provisions Following a Termination of Employment or Service as a Consultant or Independent Contractor 


Except where prohibited by applicable law or where otherwise determined by the Committee, in any instance where the rights of a Participant with respect
to an Award extend past the date of termination of a Participant’s service to the Company or its Subsidiaries, all of such rights shall terminate and be forfeited, if, in the determination of the Committee, the Participant, at any time
subsequent to his or her termination of service, engages, directly or indirectly, either personally or as an employee, agent, partner, stockholder, officer or director of, or consultant to, any Person engaged in any business in which the Company or
its Subsidiaries is engaged, in conduct that breaches any obligation or duty of such Participant to the Company or a Subsidiary or that is in material competition with the Company or a Subsidiary or is materially injurious to the Company or a
Subsidiary, monetarily or otherwise, which conduct shall include, but not be limited to, (i) disclosing or misusing any confidential information pertaining to the Company or a Subsidiary; (ii) any attempt, directly or indirectly, to induce
any employee or agent of the Company or any Subsidiary to be employed or perform services elsewhere; (iii) any attempt by a Participant, directly or indirectly, to solicit the trade of any customer or supplier or prospective customer or
supplier of the Company or any Subsidiary; or (iv) disparaging the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective officers or directors. The Committee shall make the determination of whether any conduct, action or failure to act falls
within the scope of activities contemplated by this Section 8, in its sole discretion. For purposes of this Section 8, a

Company’s initial public offering described in the IPO Registration Statement. 



  
 A-11










 
Participant shall not be deemed to be a stockholder of a competing entity if the Participant’s record and beneficial ownership amount to not more than one percent of the outstanding capital
stock of any company subject to the periodic and other reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. 
  

	9.	Dividends and Dividend Equivalents 

 The
Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide that Stock Awards shall earn dividends or dividend equivalents, as applicable. Such dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid currently or may be credited to an account maintained on the books of
the Company. Any payment or crediting of dividends or dividend equivalents will be subject to such terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations as the Committee may establish, from time to time, in its sole discretion, including, without
limitation, reinvestment in additional shares of Common Stock or common share equivalents; provided, however, if the payment or crediting of dividends or dividend equivalents is in respect of a Stock Award that is subject to Section 409A of the
Code, then the payment or crediting of such dividends or dividend equivalents shall conform to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and such requirements shall be specified in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends or
dividend equivalents may not be paid or accrue with respect to any Stock Award subject to the achievement of Performance Criteria, unless and until the relevant Performance Criteria have been satisfied, and then only to the extent determined by the
Committee, as specified in the Award Agreement. 
  

	10.	Voting 

 The Committee shall determine whether a
Participant shall have the right to direct the vote of shares of Common Stock allocated to a Stock Award. If the Committee determines that a Stock Award shall carry voting rights, the shares allocated to such Stock Award shall be voted by such
Person as the Committee may designate (the “Plan Administrator”) in accordance with instructions received from Participants (unless to do so would constitute a violation of fiduciary duties or any applicable exchange rules). In such
cases, shares subject to Awards as to which no instructions are received shall be voted by the Plan Administrator proportionately in accordance with instructions received with respect to all other Awards (including, for these purposes, outstanding
awards granted under any other plan of the Company) that are eligible to vote (unless to do so would constitute a violation of fiduciary duties or any applicable exchange rules). 

 

	11.	Payments and Deferrals 

 (a)
Payment of vested Awards may be in the form of cash, Common Stock or combinations thereof as the Committee shall determine, subject to such terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations as it may impose. The Committee may (i) postpone the
exercise of Options or SARs (but not beyond their expiration dates), (ii) require or permit Participants to elect to defer the receipt or issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Awards or the settlement of Awards in cash (including Cash
Awards) under such rules and procedures as it may establish, in its discretion, from time to time, (iii) provide for deferred settlements of Awards including the payment or crediting of earnings on deferred amounts, or the payment or crediting
of dividend equivalents where the deferred amounts are denominated in common share 

  
 A-12










 
equivalents, and (iv) stipulate in any Award Agreement, either at the time of grant or by subsequent amendment, that a payment or portion of a payment of an Award be delayed in the event
that Section 162(m) of the Code (or any successor or similar provision of the Code) would disallow a tax deduction by the Company for all or a portion of such payment; provided, that the period of any such delay in payment shall be until the
payment, or portion thereof, is tax deductible, or such earlier date as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Award subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Committee shall not
take any action described in the preceding sentence unless it determines that such action will not result in any adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code. 
 (b) If, pursuant to any Award granted under the Plan, a Participant is entitled to receive a payment on a specified date, such payment shall be deemed made as of such specified date if it is made
(i) not earlier than 30 days before such specified date and (ii) not later than December 31 of the year in which such specified date occurs or, if later, the fifteenth day of the third month following such specified date, in each case
provided that, to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Participant shall not be permitted, directly or indirectly, to designate the taxable year in which such payment
is made. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxes or penalties
under Section 409A of the Code, if a Participant is a Specified Employee at the time of his or her Separation from Service, any payment(s) with respect to any Award subject to Section 409A of the Code to which such Participant would
otherwise be entitled by reason of such Separation from Service shall be made on the date that is six months after the Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of the Participant’s death). 

(d) If, pursuant to any Award granted under the Plan, a Participant is entitled to a series of installment payments, such
Participant’s right to the series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term “series of installment
payments” has the same meaning as provided in Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations. 
  

	12.	Nontransferability 

 Awards granted under the
Plan, and during any period of restriction on transferability, shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the exercise of an Option or a SAR, may not be sold, pledged, hypothecated, assigned, margined or otherwise transferred in any manner
other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, unless and until the shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such shares have lapsed or have been waived by the Committee. No Award or interest or
right therein shall be subject to the debts, contracts or engagements of a Participant or his or her successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means
whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law, by judgment, lien, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy and divorce), and any attempted disposition thereof shall
be null and void, of no effect, and not binding on the Company in any way. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit (on such terms, conditions and limitations as it may


  
 A-13










 
establish) Nonqualified Stock Options and/or shares issued in connection with an Option or a SAR exercise that are subject to restrictions on transferability, to be transferred to a member of a
Participant’s immediate family or to a trust or similar vehicle for the benefit of a Participant’s immediate family members. During the lifetime of a Participant, all rights with respect to Awards shall be exercisable only by such
Participant or, if applicable pursuant to the preceding sentence, a permitted transferee. 
  

	13.	Change of Control 

 (a) Unless
otherwise determined in an Award Agreement, in the event of a Change of Control: 
 (i) With respect to each outstanding Award
that is assumed or substituted in connection with a Change of Control, in the event of a termination of a Participant’s employment or service without Cause during the 24-month period following such Change of Control, (i) such Award shall
become fully vested and exercisable, (ii) the restrictions, payment conditions, and forfeiture conditions applicable to any such Award granted shall lapse, and (iii) and any performance conditions imposed with respect to Awards shall be
deemed to be achieved at target performance levels. 
 (ii) With respect to each outstanding Award that is not assumed or
substituted in connection with a Change of Control, immediately upon the occurrence of the Change of Control, (x) such Award shall become fully vested and exercisable, (y) the restrictions, payment conditions, and forfeiture conditions
applicable to any such Award granted shall lapse, and (z) any performance conditions imposed with respect to Awards shall be deemed to be achieved at target performance levels. 

(iii) For purposes of this Section 13, an Award shall be considered assumed or substituted for if, following the Change of Control,
the Award remains subject to the same terms and conditions that were applicable to the Award immediately prior to the Change of Control except that, if the Award related to shares of Common Stock, the Award instead confers the right to receive
common stock of the acquiring entity. 
 (iv) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event of a Change of
Control, except as would otherwise result in adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code, the Committee may, in its discretion, provide that each Award shall, immediately upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, be cancelled in
exchange for a payment in cash or securities in an amount equal to (y) the excess of the consideration paid per share of Common Stock in the Change of Control over the exercise or purchase price (if any) per share of Common Stock subject to the
Award multiplied by (z) the number of shares of Common Stock granted under the Award. 
 (b) A “Change of
Control” shall be deemed to occur if and when the first of the following occurs: 
 (i) any Person, other than SABA is or
becomes a beneficial owner (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing             4 percent or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s
then outstanding securities (other than through acquisitions from SABA or the Company); 
  

	4 	The number of shares of Common Stock expected to be owned by SABA on the Effective Date, expressed as a percentage of all outstanding shares of Common Stock on that
date. 


  
 A-14










 (ii) any plan or proposal for the dissolution or liquidation of the Company is adopted by
the stockholders of the Company; 
 (iii) individuals who, as of the Effective Date, constituted the Board (the
“Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the Effective Date whose election, or nomination for election by the
Company’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding for this purpose any
such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened
solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; 
 (iv) all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company are sold, transferred or distributed; or 
 (v) there occurs a reorganization, merger, consolidation or
other corporate transaction involving the Company (a “Transaction”), in each case, with respect to which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such Transaction do not, immediately after the Transaction, own more than
50 percent of the combined voting power of the Company or other entity resulting from such Transaction (disregarding, in each case, SABA) in substantially the same respective proportions as such stockholders’ ownership of the voting power of
the Company immediately before such Transaction; provided, however, that a Transaction shall not constitute a Change in Control if the Transaction occurs at such time that SABA owns more than 50 percent of the combined voting power of the Company.

 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no event shall constitute a Change of Control if, immediately following such event,
(i) SABA beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 33 1/3 percent or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities (or, in the case of clause 13(b)(v) above, voting securities of the entity resulting from
the applicable Transaction entitled to vote generally in the election of directors), and (y) no person (other than the Company or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or the resulting entity) owns, directly or indirectly,
more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities (or, in the case of clause 13(b)(v) above, voting securities of the entity resulting from the applicable Transaction entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors) than SABA. 

  
 A-15










 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, for each Award that constitutes deferred compensation
under Section 409A of the Code, a Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred under the Plan with respect to such Award only if a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in ownership of a substantial
portion of the assets of the Company shall also be deemed to have occurred under Section 409A of the Code. 
  

	14.	Award Agreements 

 Each Award under the Plan
shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement (as such may be amended from time to time) that sets forth the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations applicable to the Award, including, but not limited to, the provisions governing vesting,
exercisability, payment, forfeiture, and termination of employment, all or some of which may be incorporated by reference into one or more other documents delivered or otherwise made available to a Participant in connection with an Award.

  

	15.	Tax Withholding 

 Participants shall be solely
responsible for any applicable taxes (including, without limitation, income, payroll and excise taxes) and penalties, and any interest that accrues thereon, which they incur in connection with the receipt, vesting or exercise of an Award. The
Company and its Subsidiaries shall have the right to require payment of, or may deduct from any payment made under the Plan or otherwise to a Participant, or may permit shares to be tendered or sold, including shares of Common Stock delivered or
vested in connection with an Award, in an amount sufficient to cover withholding of any federal, state, local, foreign or other governmental taxes or charges required by law or such greater amount of withholding as the Committee shall determine from
time to time and to take such other action as may be necessary to satisfy any such withholding obligations. It shall be a condition to the obligation of the Company to issue Common Stock upon the exercise of an Option or a SAR that the Participant
pay to the Company, on demand, such amount as may be requested by the Company for the purpose of satisfying any tax withholding liability. If the amount is not paid, the Company may refuse to issue shares. 

 

	16.	Other Benefit and Compensation Programs 

 Awards
received by Participants under the Plan shall not be deemed a part of a Participant’s regular, recurring compensation for purposes of calculating payments or benefits from any Company benefit plan or severance program unless specifically
provided for under the plan or program. Unless specifically set forth in an Award Agreement, Awards under the Plan are not intended as payment for compensation that otherwise would have been delivered in cash, and even if so intended, such Awards
shall be subject to such vesting requirements and other terms, conditions and restrictions as may be provided in the Award Agreement. 
  

	17.	Unfunded Plan 

 The Plan is intended to
constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. The Plan shall not establish any fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant or other Person. To the extent any Participant holds any rights by
virtue of an Award granted under the Plan, such rights shall constitute general unsecured liabilities of the Company and shall not confer upon any Participant or any other Person any right, title, or interest in any assets of the Company.


  
 A-16











	18.	Rights as a Stockholder 

 Unless the Committee
determines otherwise, a Participant shall not have any rights as a stockholder with respect to shares of Common Stock covered by an Award until the date the Participant becomes the holder of record with respect to such shares. No adjustment will be
made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to such date, except as provided in Section 9. 
  

	19.	Future Rights 

 No Eligible Recipient shall have
any claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan. There shall be no obligation of uniformity of treatment of Eligible Recipients under the Plan. Further, the Company and its Subsidiaries may adopt other compensation programs, plans or
arrangements as deemed appropriate or necessary. The adoption of the Plan, or grant of an Award, shall not confer upon any Eligible Recipient any right to continued employment or service in any particular position or at any particular rate of
compensation, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate the employment or service of Eligible Recipients at any time, free from any claim or liability under the Plan. 

 

	20.	Amendment and Termination 

 (a)
The Plan and any Award may be amended, suspended or terminated at any time by the Board, provided that no amendment shall be made without stockholder approval if it would (i) materially increase the number of shares available under the Plan,
(ii) materially expand the types of awards available under the Plan, (iii) materially expand the class of individuals eligible to participate in the Plan, (iv) materially extend the term of the Plan, (v) materially change the
method of determining the exercise price of an Award, (vi) delete or limit the prohibition against repricing contained in Section 4(d), or (vii) otherwise require approval by the stockholders of the Company in order to comply with
applicable law or the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (or, if the Common Stock is not traded on the New York Stock Exchange, the principal national securities exchange upon which the Common Stock is traded or quoted). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, with respect to Awards subject to Section 409A of the Code, any amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan or any such Award shall conform to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 13(a)and Section 20(b) and (c), no termination, suspension or amendment of the Plan or any Award shall adversely affect the right of any Participant with respect to any Award theretofore granted, as determined by the Committee,
without such Participant’s written consent. 
 (b) The Committee may amend or modify the terms and conditions of an Award
to the extent that the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that the terms and conditions of the Award violate or may violate Section 409A of the Code; provided, however, that (i) no such amendment or modification shall be made
without the Participant’s written consent if such amendment or modification would violate the terms and conditions of a Participant’s offer letter or employment agreement, and (ii) unless the Committee determines otherwise, any such


  
 A-17










 
amendment or modification of an Award made pursuant to this Section 20(b) shall maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent of the applicable Award provision without
contravening the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. The amendment or modification of any Award pursuant to this Section 20(b) shall be at the Committee’s sole discretion and the Committee shall not be obligated to amend or modify
any Award or the Plan, nor shall the Company be liable for any adverse tax or other consequences to a Participant resulting from such amendments or modifications or the Committee’s failure to make any such amendments or modifications for
purposes of complying with Section 409A of the Code or for any other purpose. To the extent the Committee amends or modifies an Award pursuant to this Section 20(b), the Participant shall receive notification of any such changes to his or
her Award and, unless the Committee determines otherwise, the changes described in such notification shall be deemed to amend the terms and conditions of the applicable Award and Award Agreement. 

 

	21.	Reimbursement or Cancellation of Certain Awards 


In the event that the Board determines that an Award that was granted, vested or paid based on the achievement of Performance Criteria or other
performance metrics would not have been granted, vested or paid absent fraud or misconduct, or that would not have been granted, vested or paid absent events giving rise to a restatement of the Company’s financial statements, or a significant
write-off not in the ordinary course affecting the Company’s financial statements, the Board, in its discretion, shall take such action as it deems necessary or appropriate to address the fraud, misconduct, write-off or restatement. Such
actions may include, without limitation and to the extent permitted by applicable law, in appropriate cases, (i) requiring partial or full reimbursement of any Cash Award granted to the Participant, (ii) causing the partial or full
cancellation of any Award granted to the Participant or (iii) requiring partial or full repayment of the value of the Common Stock acquired on vesting or settlement of an Award, in each case as the Board determines to be in the best interests
of the Company. 
  

	22.	Successors and Assigns 

 The Plan and any
applicable Award Agreement shall be binding on all successors and assigns of a Participant, including, without limitation, the estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator or trustee of such estate, or any receiver or trustee in
bankruptcy or representative of the Participant’s creditors. 
  

	23.	Governing Law 

 The Plan and all agreements
entered into under the Plan shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. 
  

	24.	Section 409A of the Code 

 The intent of the
parties is that payments and benefits under the Plan comply with Section 409A of the Code to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and be administered to be in compliance
therewith. 

  
 A-18











	25.	No Liability With Respect to Tax Qualification or Adverse Tax Treatment 

 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in no event shall the Company or any Affiliate be liable to a Participant on account of an Award’s failure to (i) qualify for favorable
U.S. or foreign tax treatment or (ii) avoid adverse tax treatment under U.S. or foreign law, including, without limitation, Section 409A of the Code. 

  
 A-19










 ANNEX B 

TAYLOR & MARTIN GROUP, INC. 
 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT 
 Taylor & Martin Group, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to                          (the “Participant”), the restricted
shares (“Restricted Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share of the Company (“Common Stock”) referred to in Section 1 below pursuant to the Taylor & Martin Group, Inc. 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”). The terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to the Restricted Shares are contained in the Plan and in this Restricted Stock Award Agreement (the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the
meaning assigned to such terms in the Plan. 
 1. Grant of Restricted Shares. 

 

			
	Grant Date:	  	                     , 20    
	Number of Shares:	  	[# SHARES]
	Forfeiture Lapse Dates (20% of the Restricted Shares shall be released from risk of forfeiture on each specified date, provided the performance target, if applicable, for that date
set forth in Section 14 below has been met):	  	  
  
  

First Anniversary of Grant Date
 Second
Anniversary of Grant Date
 Third Anniversary of Grant Date
 Fourth Anniversary of Grant Date
 Fifth Anniversary of Grant Date

		  
		  
		  
		  

 2. Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon a termination of the
Participant’s employment, the Restricted Shares shall be treated as follows (unless the terms of any Employment Agreement between the Company or one of its Affiliates and the Participant (an “Employment Agreement”) expressly provide
otherwise, in which event the terms of the Employment Agreement shall control the results of such termination): 
 (a)
Voluntary Resignation; Termination for Cause. If the Participant voluntarily terminates employment with the Company other than for Good Reason (as hereinafter defined) or if the Company terminates the Participant’s employment for Cause,
the Restricted Shares that are still subject to risk of forfeiture on the date the Participant’s employment is so terminated will be forfeited, the forfeited portion of the Restricted Shares (if any) will be canceled and the Participant shall
have no further rights of any kind with respect to any forfeited Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, for purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean: 

(i) the Participant’s willful misconduct or gross negligence that causes material harm to the Company; 

(ii) a material violation of the Company’s written corporate governance guidelines, policies or procedures as specified in the
Company’s Employee Handbook; 

  
 B-1










 (iii) the Participant’s habitual substance abuse; 

(iv) the Participant’s willful and continued failure (other than as a result of physical or mental incapacity) to perform the duties
of the Participant’s position or to follow the legal direction of the Committee which is not cured within 30 days following written notice from the Committee specifying such failure; 

(v) the Participant’s being convicted of, or pleading guilty or nolo contendere to a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude,
dishonesty or breach of trust; 
 (vi) the Participant’s willful theft, embezzlement or act of comparable dishonesty
against the Company or any Affiliate; or 
 (vii) a material breach by the Participant of the provisions of this
Section (2(a), which breach is not (if curable) cured by the Participant within 30 days following his receipt of written notice thereof. 

For purposes of this definition, no act or failure to act by the Participant shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be
done, in bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Participant’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Company or an Affiliate. A termination of employment of the Participant shall not be deemed to be for Cause unless and
until there shall have been delivered to the Participant a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the entire membership of the Committee at a meeting of the Committee called and held for such purpose
(at which the Participant has been given the opportunity to appear with counsel on reasonable written notice specifying the alleged Cause event), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Committee, the Participant is guilty of the conduct
described in one or more of the clauses of this paragraph (a), and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. 
 (b) Death
or Involuntary Termination Other than for Cause. If the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause (other than following the Participant’s disability, as described below) or by the Participant
for Good Reason, or upon the Participant’s death, the forfeiture provisions applicable to the Restricted Shares (if any) will lapse as of the termination date. The Participant’s employment may be terminated by the Participant for
“Good Reason” if (x) an event or circumstance set forth in clauses (i) – (v) of this Section 2(b) below shall have occurred and the Participant provides the Company with written notice thereof within 90 days after
the occurrence or existence of such event or circumstance, which notice shall specifically identify the event or circumstance that the Participant believes constitutes Good Reason, (y) the Company fails to correct the circumstance or event so
identified within 30 days after the receipt of such notice (the “Cure Period”), and (z) the Participant resigns within 30 days after the end of the Cure Period. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean, in
the absence of the Participant’s written consent, the occurrence of any of the following: 
 (i) a material diminution by
the Company in the Participant’s annual base salary or a material diminution in the Participant’s target bonus opportunity as a percentage of the Participant’s annual base salary; 

  
 B-2










 (ii) a material diminution in the Participant’s authority, duties or responsibilities;

 (iii) a material diminution in the Participant’s reporting relationship; 

(iv) any requirement that the Participant’s principal business location be at any office or location more than 25 miles from the
Participant’s principal business location as of the date immediately prior to such relocation (other than to an office or location closer to the Participant’s home residence); or 

(v) any material breach of this Agreement by the Company. 
 (c) Disability. The Restricted Shares will continue to be subject to risk of forfeiture during the first 12 months of the Participant’s approved disability leave pursuant to the Company
disability policy applicable to the Participant (the “Disability Policy”). If the Participant remains on an approved disability leave for more than one year pursuant to the Disability Policy, the risk of forfeiture provisions applicable to
the Restricted Shares (if any) will lapse as of the first anniversary of the commencement of such approved disability leave. 
 3.
Stockholder Rights. The Participant will have all of the rights of a holder of shares with respect to the Restricted Shares (until and unless the Restricted Shares are forfeited), including, without limitation, the right to vote such shares
and the right to receive all dividends or other distributions with respect to such shares, both prior to and after the lapse and removal of the forfeiture provisions set forth herein, and, if shares are ultimately forfeited, prior to such
forfeiture. 
 4. Consent to Electronic Delivery. In lieu of receiving documents in paper format, by receipt of the Restricted Shares,
the Participant consents, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to electronic delivery of any documents that the Company may be required to deliver (including, but not limited to, prospectuses, prospectus supplements, grant or award notifications
and agreements and all other forms or communications) in connection with the Restricted Shares. Electronic delivery of a document to the Participant may be via the Company’s e-mail system or by reference to a location on an Internet site to
which the Participant has access. 
 5. Tax Withholding. The Participant shall be solely responsible for any applicable taxes (including,
without limitation, income, payroll and excise taxes) and penalties, and any interest that accrues thereon, incurred in connection with the Restricted Shares, including the payment of any dividends with respect thereto. Upon the lapse of the
forfeiture provisions applicable to the Restricted Shares, the Company shall have the right to require payment of, or may deduct or sell a number of shares sufficient to cover, withholding of any applicable federal, state, local, foreign or other
governmental taxes or charges required by law or such greater amount of withholding as the Committee shall determine from time to time and to take such other action as may be necessary to satisfy any such withholding obligations. 

6. Entire Agreement. The Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Company and the Participant regarding the
Restricted Shares and supersede all previous written, oral, or implied understandings between the parties hereto about the subject matter hereof; provided that in the event that the terms of an Employment Agreement are inconsistent with the terms of
the Agreement or the Plan, the terms of the Employment Agreement shall control. 

  
 B-3










 7. No Right to Employment. Nothing contained herein, in the Plan, or in any prospectus shall confer
upon the Participant any rights to continued employment or employment in any particular position, at any specific rate of compensation, or for any particular period of time. 
 8. Arbitration. Any disputes related to the Restricted Shares shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Company’s arbitration policies. In the absence of an effective arbitration
policy, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that any dispute related to the Restricted Shares shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association, if so elected by the Company in its
sole discretion. 
 9. Conflict. In the event of a conflict between the Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control. In the event of a
conflict between the Agreement or the Plan, on the one hand, and any Employment Agreement, on the other hand, the terms of the Employment Agreement shall control. 
 10. Governing Law. The Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the application of any choice-of-law rules that would
result in the application of another state’s laws. The Participant and the Company consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the federal and state courts of the State of Texas sitting in Harris County for the resolution of all disputes
arising under, or relating to, this Agreement. 
 11. Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. The intent of the parties is that the
Restricted Shares granted hereunder be exempt from Section 409A of the Code, and, to the maximum extent permitted, the Agreement and the Plan shall be interpreted and be administered accordingly. 

12. Successors and Assigns. The Agreement shall be binding on all successors and assigns of the Participant, including, without limitation, the

THIS AMENDMENT (this “Amendment”), dated as of the 30th day of May, 2012, amends that Amended and Restated Employment
Agreement (the “A&R Employment Agreement”), dated April 30, 2012, by and between TMG Reverse Logistics, LLC (f/k/a TMG Recovery Services, LLC), a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and
Jerry Davis (the “Executive”). 
 Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the
meanings given to them in the A&R Employment Agreement. 
 RECITALS: 

WHEREAS, the Company desires to increase the amount of Executive’s compensation set forth in the A&R Employment Agreement; and

 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 7.15 of the A&R Employment Agreement, the A&R Employment Agreement may be amended
by a written instrument executed by the party to be charged; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the following amendment to the A&R
Employment Agreement is hereby adopted, to be effective as of the date first above written: 
 1. The A&R Employment Agreement is hereby
amended by deleting Section 3.3 in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 
 “3.3 Restricted Stock
Award. Provided Executive is employed by Company on the IPO Date, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of TMG shall award on the IPO Date to Executive pursuant to the Plan the sum of (i) 50,000 shares of Common Stock and
(ii) such number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearer whole share) as shall be determined by dividing the Incentive Pool (as defined below) by the IPO Price (being the price to the public reflected in the prospectus of TMG relating
to the IPO that is first filed by TMG with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended). “Incentive Pool” means the greater of (a) $2,500,000.00 and
(b) the sum of $1,150,000.00 and the product obtained by multiplying $150,000.00 by the number of calendar months between the Effective Date and the last day of the month in which the IPO Date occurs. This award will be evidenced by a
restricted stock award agreement, in the form customarily used by TMG to make similar awards to other executives of its affiliated entities, a copy of which in substantially final form is attached hereto as Annex B, and will contain
forfeiture restrictions that will lapse 20% on the first anniversary date of the IPO Date and 20% on each of the next four anniversaries of the IPO Date thereafter, provided Executive continues to be employed by Company on each such date. Except as
described above, this award shall not be subject to performance target-levels.” 








 2. Except as specifically amended herein, the A&R Employment Agreement remains in full force and effect.
This Amendment and the A&R Employment Agreement, as amended, shall be one and the same instrument and may be amended and restated in one instrument. 
 3. This Amendment shall be construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of laws.
