Eligibility.

Section 423(b) of the Code. 
  

 3 








 (b) Each person who, during the course of an Offering Period, first becomes an Eligible Employee
subsequent to the Enrollment Date will be eligible to become a participant in the Plan on the first day of the first Purchase Period following the day on which such person becomes an Eligible Employee, subject to the requirements of Section 5 and
the limitations imposed by Section 423(b) of the Code. 
  
 (c) No
Eligible Employee shall be granted an option under the Plan which permits his rights to purchase stock under the Plan, and to purchase stock under all other employee stock purchase plans of the Company, any Parent or any Subsidiary subject to the
Section 423, to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of fair market value of such stock (determined at the time the option is granted) for each calendar year in which the option is outstanding at any time. For purpose of the limitation imposed by
this subsection, the right to purchase stock under an option accrues when the option (or any portion thereof) first becomes exercisable during the calendar year, the right to purchase stock under an option accrues at the rate provided in the option,
but in no case may such rate exceed $25,000 of fair market value of such stock (determined at the time such option is granted) for any one calendar year, and a right to purchase stock which has accrued under an option may not be carried over to any
option. This limitation shall be applied in accordance with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. 
  
 4. Offering Periods. Subject to Section 24, the Plan shall be implemented by consecutive, overlapping Offering Periods which shall continue until
the Plan expires or is terminated in accordance with Section 20 hereof. The Administrator shall have the power to change the duration of Offering Periods (including the commencement dates thereof) with respect to future offerings without shareholder
approval if such change is announced at least five (5) days prior to the scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period to be affected thereafter. 
  
 5. Participation. 
  
 (a) Each Eligible Employee who is employed by the Company or a Designated Subsidiary on the calendar day immediately preceding the Effective Date shall
automatically become a participant in the Plan with respect to the first Offering Period. Each such participant shall be granted an option to purchase shares of Common Stock and shall be enrolled in such first Offering Period to the extent of twenty
percent (20%) of his or her Compensation for the pay days during the first Offering Period (or, if less, the maximum amount of contributions permitted to be made by such participant for such Offering Period by payroll deduction under the terms of
this Plan). Participants wishing to purchase shares of Common Stock during the first Offering Period shall do so by making a lump sum cash payment to the Company not later than ten (10) calendar days before each Exercise Date of such Offering
Period, and each such payment may be made in an amount not exceeding twenty percent (20%) of such participant’s Compensation for the pay days occurring during such Offering Period and occurring prior to such lump sum payment; provided,
however, that such participant shall not be required to make such lump sum cash payments, or exercise all or any portion of such option to purchase shares of Common Stock by making such lump sum payments. Following the Effective Date, each
such participant may, during the period designated from time to 

  

 4 








 
time by the Administrator for such purpose, elect to make such contributions (or a lesser amount of contributions) for the first Offering Period by payroll
deductions in accordance with Section 6, in lieu of making contributions in such lump sum cash payments under this subsection (a), or may elect to make no contributions for such Offering Period; provided, however, that, to make
contributions by payroll deductions, such participant must complete the form of subscription agreement provided by the Company for the first Offering Period under this Plan. If (i) during such Offering Period, such a participant elects to make
contributions by payroll deduction, or elects to make no contributions for such Offering Period, or (ii) on or prior to the tenth (10th) calendar day before the last Exercise Date of such Offering Period, such a participant fails to make any lump sum cash payment, such participant shall be deemed to have elected not to make contributions by lump sum payment
with respect to such first Offering Period. Except as described in subsection (e) below, a participant may not make contributions by lump sum payment for any Offering Period other than the first Offering Period. 
  
 (b) Following the first Offering Period, an Eligible Employee may become a
participant in the Plan by completing a subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions in the form of Exhibit A to this Plan and filing it with the Company’s payroll office fifteen (15) days (or such shorter or longer period as may be
determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion) prior to the applicable Enrollment Date. 
  
 (c) Each person who, during the course of an Offering Period, first becomes an Eligible Employee subsequent to the Enrollment Date will be eligible to
become a participant in the Plan on the first day of the first Purchase Period following the day on which such person becomes an Eligible Employee. Such person may become a participant in the Plan by completing a subscription agreement authorizing
payroll deductions in the form of Exhibit A to this Plan and filing it with the Company’s payroll office fifteen (15) days (or such shorter or longer period as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion) prior to the first
day of any Purchase Period during the Offering Period in which such person becomes an Eligible Employee. The rights granted to such participant shall have the same characteristics as any rights originally granted during that Offering Period except
that the first day of the Purchase Period in which such person initially participates in the Plan shall be the “Enrollment Date” for all purposes for such person, including determination of the Purchase Price. 
  
 (d) Except as provided in subsection (a), payroll deductions for a
participant shall commence on the first payroll following the Enrollment Date and shall end on the last payroll in the Offering Period to which such authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the participant as provided in Section 10
hereof.  
  
 (e) During a leave of absence approved by the
Company or a Subsidiary and meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-7(h)(2), a participant may continue to participate in the Plan by making cash payments to the Company on each pay day equal to the amount of the
participant’s payroll deductions under the Plan for the pay day immediately preceding the first day of such participant’s leave of absence. If a leave of absence is unapproved or fails to meet the requirements of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.421-7(h)(2), the participant will cease automatically to participate in the Plan. In such event, the company will automatically cease to deduct the participant’s payroll under the Plan. The Company will pay to the participant his or
her total payroll deductions for the quarterly purchase period, in cash in one lump sum (without interest), as soon as practicable after the participant ceases to participate in the Plan. 
  

 5 








 (f) A participant’s completion of a subscription agreement will enroll such participant in the Plan
for each successive Purchase Period and each subsequent Offering Period on the terms contained therein until the participant either submits a new subscription agreement, withdraws from participation under the Plan as provided in Section 10 hereof or
otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan. 
  
 6.
Payroll Deductions. 
  
 (a) At the time a participant
files his or her subscription agreement, he or she shall elect to have payroll deductions made on each pay day during the Offering Period in an amount from one percent (1%) to twenty percent (20%) of the Compensation which he or she receives on each
pay day during the Offering Period. 
  
 (b) All payroll deductions
made for a participant shall be credited to his or her account under the Plan and shall be withheld in whole percentages only. Except as described in Section 5(a) hereof, a participant may not make any additional payments into such account.

  
 (c) A participant may discontinue his or her participation in
the Plan as provided in Section 10 hereof, or may increase or decrease the rate of his or her payroll deductions during the Offering Period by completing or filing with the Company a new subscription agreement authorizing a change in payroll
deduction rate. The Administrator may, in its discretion, limit the number of participation rate changes during any Offering Period. The change in rate shall be effective with the first full payroll period following five (5) business days after the
Company’s receipt of the new subscription agreement (or such shorter or longer period as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion). 
  

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(c) hereof, a participant’s
payroll deductions may be decreased to zero percent (0%) at any time during a Purchase Period. 
  
 (e) At the time the option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all of the Company’s Common Stock issued under the Plan is disposed of, the participant must make adequate provision for the
Company’s federal, state, or other tax withholding obligations, if any, which arise upon the exercise of the option or the disposition of the Common Stock. At any time, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the
participant’s compensation the amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company any tax deductions or benefits attributable to sale or early
disposition of Common Stock by the Employee. 
  
 7. Grant of
Option. On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period, each Eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period shall be granted an option to purchase on each Exercise Date during such Offering Period (at the applicable Purchase Price) up
to a number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock determined by dividing such participant’s payroll 

  

 6 








 
deductions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the participant’s account as of the Exercise Date by the applicable Purchase Price;
provided, however, that in no event shall a participant be permitted to purchase during each Offering Period more than 800,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 19) and during each
Purchase Period more than 200,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 19); and provided, further, that such purchase shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3(c)
and 13 hereof. The Administrator may, for future Offering Periods, increase or decrease, in its absolute discretion, the maximum number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock a participant may purchase during each Purchase Period and Offering
Period. Exercise of the option shall occur as provided in Section 8 hereof, unless the participant has withdrawn pursuant to Section 10 hereof or otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan. The option shall expire on the last day of the
Offering Period. 
  
 8. Exercise of Option. 
  
 (a) Unless a participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 10
hereof or otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan, his or her option for the purchase of shares shall be exercised automatically on the Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full shares subject to the option shall be purchased for
such participant at the applicable Purchase Price with the accumulated payroll deductions in his or her account. No fractional shares shall be purchased; any payroll deductions accumulated in a participant’s account which are not sufficient to
purchase a full share shall be retained in the participant’s account for the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period. During a participant’s lifetime, a participant’s option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by
him or her. 
  
 (b) If the Administrator determines that, on a
given Exercise Date, the number of shares with respect to which options are to be exercised may exceed (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that were available for sale under the Plan on the Enrollment Date of the applicable Offering Period, or
(ii) the number of shares available for sale under the Plan on such Exercise Date, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (x) provide that the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares of Common Stock available for purchase on
such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as it shall determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all participants exercising options to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise
Date, and continue all Offering Periods then in effect, or (y) provide that the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as shall be
practicable and as it shall determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all participants exercising options to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise Date, and terminate any or all Offering Periods then in effect pursuant to Section 20
hereof. The Company may make pro rata allocation of the shares available on the Enrollment Date of any applicable Offering Period pursuant to the preceding sentence, notwithstanding any authorization of additional shares for issuance under the Plan
by the Company’s shareholders subsequent to such Enrollment Date. The balance of the amount credited to the account of each participant which has not been applied to the purchase of shares of stock shall be paid to such participant in one lump
sum in cash as soon as reasonably practicable after the Exercise Date, without any interest thereon. 
  

 7 








 9. Deposit of Shares. As promptly as practicable after each Exercise Date on which a purchase of
shares occurs, the Company may arrange for the deposit, into each participant’s account with any broker designated by the Company to administer this Plan, of the number of shares purchased upon exercise of his or her option. 
  
 10. Withdrawal. 
  
 (a) A participant may withdraw all but not less than all of the payroll
deductions credited to his or her account and not yet used to exercise his or her option under the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the Company in the form of Exhibit A to this Plan. All of the participant’s payroll deductions
credited to his or her account during the Offering Period shall be paid to such participant as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of notice of withdrawal and such participant’s option for the Offering Period shall be automatically
terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of shares shall be made for such Offering Period. If a participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions shall not resume at the beginning of the succeeding Offering
Period unless the participant delivers to the Company a new subscription agreement. 
  
 (b) A participant’s withdrawal from an Offering Period shall not have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan which may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in succeeding
Offering Periods which commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the participant withdraws. 
  
 11. Termination of Employment. Upon a participant’s ceasing to be an Eligible Employee, for any reason, he or she shall be deemed to have
elected to withdraw from the Plan and the payroll deductions credited to such participant’s account during the Offering Period shall be paid to such participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto
under Section 15 hereof, as soon as reasonably practicable and such participant’s option for the Offering Period shall be automatically terminated. 
  
 12. Interest. No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions or lump sum contributions of a participant in the Plan. 
  
 13. Shares Subject to Plan. 
  
 (a) Subject to adjustment upon changes in capitalization of the Company as
provided in Section 19 hereof, the maximum number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock which shall be made available for sale under the Plan shall be 2,750,000 shares, plus an annual increase to be added on each January 1 during the term of
the Plan equal to the least of (i) 875,000 shares, (ii) .75% of the Company’s outstanding shares on such date or (iii) a lesser amount determined by the Board. If any right granted under the Plan shall for any reason terminate without having
been exercised, the Common Stock not purchased under such right shall again become available for issuance under the Plan. The stock subject to the Plan may be unissued shares or reacquired shares, bought on the market or otherwise. 
  

 8 








 (b) With respect to shares of stock subject to an option granted under the Plan, a participant shall not
be deemed to be a stockholder of the Company, and the participant shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder, until such shares have been issued to the participant or his or her nominee following exercise of the
participant’s option. No adjustments shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash securities, or other property) or distribution or other rights for which the record date occurs prior to the date of such issuance,
except as otherwise expressly provided herein. 
  
 14.
Administration. 
  
 (a) The Plan shall be administered by
the Board unless and until the Board delegates administration to a Committee as set forth below. The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a Committee comprised of two or more members of the Board, each of whom is a “non-employee
director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 which has been adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and which is otherwise constituted to comply with applicable law, and the term
“Committee” shall apply to any persons to whom such authority has been delegated. If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed
by the Board, including the power to delegate to a subcommittee any of the administrative powers the Committee is authorized to exercise, subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from
time to time by the Board. Each member of the Committee shall serve for a term commencing on a date specified by the Board and continuing until the member dies or resigns or is removed from office by the Board. References in this Plan to the
“Administrator” shall mean the Board unless administration is delegated to a Committee or subcommittee, in which case references in this Plan to the Administrator shall thereafter be to the Committee or subcommittee. 
  
 (b) It shall be the duty of the Administrator to conduct the general
administration of the Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. The Administrator shall have the power to interpret the Plan and the terms of the options and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation, and application of
the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret, amend or revoke any such rules. The Administrator at its option may utilize the services of an agent to assist in the administration of the Plan including establishing and maintaining an
individual securities account under the Plan for each participant. In its absolute discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Administrator under the Plan. 
  
 (c) All expenses and liabilities incurred by the Administrator in connection
with the administration of the Plan shall be borne by the Company. The Administrator may, with the approval of the Board, employ attorneys, consultants, accountants, appraisers, brokers or other persons. The Administrator, the Company and its
officers and directors shall be entitled to rely upon the advice, opinions or valuations of any such persons. All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith shall be final and binding upon all
participants, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Board shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or the options, and all members of the Board
shall be fully protected by the Company in respect to any such action, determination, or interpretation. 
  

 9 








 15. Designation of Beneficiary. 
  
 (a) A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to
receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such participant’s death subsequent to an Exercise Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to such participant of such
shares and cash. In addition, a participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such participant’s death prior to exercise of the option.
If a participant is married and the designated beneficiary is not the spouse, spousal consent shall be required for such designation to be effective. 
  
 (b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the participant at any time by written notice to the Company. In the event of the death of a
participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such participant’s death, the Company shall deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the
participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the
participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate. 
  
 16. Transferability. Neither payroll deductions credited to a participant’s account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or
to receive shares under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in Section 15 hereof) by the participant. Any such attempt at
assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw funds from an Offering Period in accordance with Section 10 hereof. 
  
 17. Use of Funds. All payroll deductions received or held by the
Company under the Plan may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions. 
  
 18. Reports. Individual accounts shall be maintained for each participant in the Plan. Statements of account shall be given to participating
Employees at least annually, which statements shall set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the Purchase Price, the number of shares purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any. 
  
 19. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution, Liquidation, Merger or Asset Sale. 
  
 (a) Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the
shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but not yet placed under option, the maximum number of shares each participant may purchase each Purchase Period (pursuant to
Section 7), as well as the price per share and the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan which has not yet been exercised shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares
of 

  

 10 








 
Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or
decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected
without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of
stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an option. 
  
 (b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Offering Period then in progress shall be shortened by setting a new Exercise Date (the “New Exercise Date”), and shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed
dissolution or liquidation, unless provided otherwise by the Administrator. The New Exercise Date shall be before the date of the Company’s proposed dissolution or liquidation. The Administrator shall notify each participant in writing, at
least ten (10) business days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the participant’s option shall be exercised automatically on the New
Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof. 
  
 (c) Merger or Asset Sale. In the event of a proposed sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the merger of the Company
with or into another corporation, each outstanding option shall be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses
to assume or substitute for the option, any Purchase Periods then in progress shall be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date and any Offering Periods then in progress shall end on the New Exercise Date. The New Exercise Date shall be before the
date of the Company’s proposed sale or merger. The Administrator shall notify each participant in writing, at least ten (10) business days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the participant’s option has been changed
to the New Exercise Date and that the participant’s option shall be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof. 

 
 20. Amendment or Termination. 
  
 (a) The Board may at any time and for any reason terminate or amend the
Plan. Except as provided in Section 19 hereof, no such termination can affect options previously granted, provided that an Offering Period may be terminated by the Board if the Board determines that the termination of the Offering Period or the Plan
is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Except as provided in Section 19 and this Section 20 hereof, no amendment may make any change in any option theretofore granted which adversely affects the rights of any participant
without the consent of such participant. To the extent necessary to comply with Section 423 of the Code (or any successor rule or provision or any other applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule), the Company shall obtain stockholder
approval in such a manner and to such a degree as required. 
  

 11 








 (b) Without stockholder consent and without regard to whether any participant rights may be considered to
have been “adversely affected,” the Administrator shall be entitled to change the Offering Periods, limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during an Offering Period, establish the exchange ratio applicable to
amounts withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit payroll withholding in excess of the amount designated by a participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company’s processing of properly completed withholding
elections, establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the
participant’s Compensation, and establish such other limitations or procedures as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion advisable which are consistent with the Plan. 
  
 (c) In the event the Board determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting
consequences, the Board may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify or amend the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence including, but not limited to: 
  
 (i) altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period including an
Offering Period underway at the time of the change in Purchase Price; 
  
 (ii) shortening any Offering Period so that the Offering Period ends on a new Exercise Date, including an Offering Period underway at the time of the Administrator action; and 
  
 (iii) allocating shares. 
  
 Such modifications or amendments shall not require stockholder approval or the consent of any Plan participants.

required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for shares of Stock purchased upon the exercise of options prior to fulfillment of all the following conditions:

 24. Automatic Transfer to Low Price Offering Period. To
the extent permitted by any applicable laws, regulations, or stock exchange rules, if the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on any Exercise Date in an Offering Period is lower than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Enrollment Date

such Offering Period immediately after the exercise of their option on such Exercise Date and automatically re-enrolled in the immediately following Offering Period as of the first day thereof. 
  
 25. Equal Rights and Privileges. All Eligible Employees of the Company
(or of any Designated Subsidiary) will have equal rights and privileges under this Plan so that this Plan qualifies as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code or applicable Treasury regulations
thereunder. Any provision of this Plan that is inconsistent with Section 423 or applicable Treasury regulations will, without further act or amendment by the Company, the Board or the Administrator, be reformed to comply with the equal rights and
privileges requirement of Section 423 or applicable Treasury regulations. 
  
 26. No Employment Rights. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to give any person (including any Eligible Employee or participant) the right to remain in the employ of the Company, a Parent or a Subsidiary or
to affect the right of the Company, any Parent or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any person (including any Eligible Employee or participant) at any time, with or without cause. 
  
 27. Notice of Disposition of Shares. Each participant shall give
prompt notice to the Company of any disposition or other transfer of any shares of stock purchased upon exercise of an option if such disposition or transfer is made: (a) within two (2) years from the Enrollment Date of the Offering Period in which
