each calendar year or portion thereof while the Plan is in effect to such of the Participants as the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine; provided, however, that no Incentive Stock Options may be granted to a Participant who is not an
Employee. In determining the Participants to whom Awards shall be granted and the number of Shares to be subject to issuance or subject to purchase under such Awards, the Committee shall take into account the duties of the respective Participants,
their present and potential contributions to the success of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and such other factors as the Committee shall deem relevant in connection with accomplishing the purposes of the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, no Participant shall receive Awards to acquire more than One Million (1,000,000) Shares in any one calendar year. 

5.2 Vesting. Awards granted under the Plan on or after the date the Plan this amendment and restatement becomes
effective shall be subject to a minimum three (3) year vesting schedule, with one-third vesting to occur on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of the Award Agreement, provided however, that the Committee shall have the discretion
to award up to ten percent (10%) of the Shares available for the grant of future Awards under the Plan as of the date hereof without being subject to the minimum vesting requirement.

 6. Options 

6.1 Types of Options. Options granted under the Plan may be (i) Incentive Stock Options,
(ii) Non-Qualified Stock Options, or (iii) a combination of the foregoing. The Option Agreement shall designate whether an Option is an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option and separate Option Agreements shall be issued
for each type of Option when a combination of an Incentive Stock Option and a Non-Qualified Stock Option are granted on the same date to the same Participant. Any Option which is designated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option shall not be treated by the
Company or the Participant to whom the Option is granted as an Incentive Stock Option for federal income tax purposes. 
 6.2
Option Price. The option price per share of any Option granted under the Plan shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares covered by the Option on the date the Option is granted. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, in the event an Incentive Stock Option is granted to an Employee who, at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns, as defined in Section 424 of the Code, stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of: 
 (i) the Company; or 

(ii) if applicable, a Subsidiary; or 

(iii) if applicable, a Parent, 

then the option price per share of any Incentive Stock Option granted to such Employee shall not be less than one hundred ten percent
(110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares covered by the Option on the date the Option is granted. 
 6.3
Terms of Options. Options granted hereunder shall be exercisable for a Term of not more than ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof, but shall be subject to earlier termination as hereinafter provided. Each Option Agreement
issued hereunder shall specify the term of the Option, which term shall be determined by the Committee in accordance with its discretionary authority hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event an Incentive Stock Option
is granted to an Employee who, at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns, as defined in Section 424 of the Code, stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of:

 (i) the Company; or 

(ii) if applicable, a Subsidiary; or 

(iii) if applicable, a Parent, 

then such Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable more than five (5) years from the date of grant thereof, but shall be subject to
earlier termination as hereinafter provided. 

  
 viii 








 6.4 Other Terms and Conditions of Options. Each Option or each
Option Agreement setting forth an Option shall contain such other terms and conditions (e.g., vesting conditions) not inconsistent herewith as shall be approved by the Committee. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, except in
connection with a change in capitalization described in Section 15, the terms of outstanding Awards may not be amended to reduce the exercise price of outstanding Options or cancel outstanding Options in exchange for cash, or other Awards or
Options with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original Options without stockholder approval. 
 7. Limit
on Fair Market Value of Incentive Stock Options No Employee may be granted an Incentive Stock Option hereunder to the extent that the aggregate fair market value (such fair market value being determined as of the date of grant of the option
in question) of the stock with respect to which incentive stock options are first exercisable by such Employee during any calendar year (under all such plans of the Employee’s employer corporation, its Parent, if any, and its Subsidiaries, if
any) exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). For purposes of the preceding sentence, Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. Any Option granted under the Plan which is intended to be an Incentive Stock
Option, but which exceeds the limitation set forth in this Section 7, shall be a Non-Qualified Stock Option. 
 8. Restricted
Stock Awards Restricted Stock Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to such terms and conditions as Committee may, in its discretion, determine and set forth in the related Restricted Stock Award Agreements. Restricted Stock Awards
shall be granted to Participants in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions set forth below. 
 8.1 Issuance of
Shares. Each Restricted Stock Award shall be evidenced by a Restricted Stock Award Agreement that shall set forth the number of Shares issuable under the Restricted Stock Award. Subject to the restrictions in Section 8.3 of the Plan,
and subject further to such other restrictions or conditions established by the Committee, in its discretion, and set forth in the related Restricted Stock Award Agreement, the number of Shares granted under a Restricted Stock Award shall be issued
in the recipient Participant’s name on the date of grant of such Restricted Stock Award or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. 

8.2 Rights of Recipient Participants. Shares received pursuant to Restricted Stock Awards shall be duly issued or
transferred to the Participant, and a certificate or certificates for such Shares shall be issued in the Participant’s name. Subject to the restrictions in Section 8.3 of the Plan, and subject further to such other restrictions or
conditions established by the Committee, in its discretion, and set forth in the related Restricted Stock Award Agreement, the Participant shall thereupon be a stockholder with respect to all the Shares represented by such certificate or
certificates and shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote such Shares and to receive dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares; provided, however, that dividends on
any Shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award that have not previously vested may be paid directly to the Participant, withheld by the Company subject to the vesting of such Shares, or reinvested in additional Shares subject to a Restricted Stock
Award with similar vesting provisions as determined by the 

  
 ix 








 
Committee in its discretion In furtherance of the restrictions in Section 8.3 of the Plan and in the related Restricted Stock Award Agreement, the certificate or certificates for Shares
awarded hereunder, together with a suitably executed stock power signed by such recipient Participant, shall be held by the Company in its control for the account of such Participant (i) until the restrictions in Section 8.3 of the Plan
and in the related Restricted Stock Award Agreement lapse pursuant to the Plan or the Restricted Stock Award Agreement, at which time a certificate for the appropriate number of Shares (free of all restrictions imposed by the Plan or the Restricted
Stock Award Agreement) shall be delivered to the Participant, or (ii) until such Shares are forfeited to the Company and cancelled as provided by the Plan or the Restricted Stock Award Agreement. 

8.3 Restrictions. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and set forth in a
Restricted Stock Award Agreement, each Share issued pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award Agreement shall be subject, in addition to any other restrictions set forth in the related Restricted Stock Award Agreement, to the following restrictions until
such restrictions have lapsed pursuant to Section 8.4 of the Plan: 
 (a) Disposition. The Shares awarded
to a Participant and held by the Company pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Plan, and the right to vote such Shares or receive dividends on such Shares, may not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of;
provided, however, that such Shares may be transferred upon the death of the Participant to the Participant’s Successor. Any transfer or purported transfer of such Shares in violation of the restrictions outlined in this Section 8.3 shall
be null and void and shall result in the forfeiture of the Shares transferred or purportedly transferred to the Company without notice and without consideration. 

(b) Forfeiture. The Shares awarded to a Participant and held by the Company pursuant to Section 8.2 of the
Plan shall be forfeited to the Company without notice and without consideration therefor immediately upon the complete termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason whatsoever and at such other
times as may be set forth in a Restricted Stock Award Agreement. 
 8.4 Lapse of Restrictions. The restrictions
set forth in Section 8.3 of the Plan on Shares issued under a Restricted Stock Award shall lapse upon either the passage of time or the achievement of one or more Performance Goals and on such terms as the Committee, in its sole discretion,
shall determine and set forth in the related Restricted Stock Award Agreement, and certificates for the Shares held for the account of the Participant in accordance with Section 8.2 of the Plan hereof shall be appropriately distributed to the
Participant as soon as reasonably practical thereafter. In granting any Restricted Stock Award which is intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder, the Committee shall follow any procedures determined by
the Committee from time to time to be necessary or appropriate to ensure the qualification of such Restricted Stock Award under Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder. 

  
 x 








 8.5 Issuance of Shares in Book Entry Form. Shares subject to a
Restricted Stock Award, may be issued in book entry form and evidenced by a book entry account maintained by the Company’s stock transfer agent, in which case (i) any requirement that certificates for Shares subject to a Restricted Stock
Award be issued or delivered to a Participant shall be satisfied by the Company causing such Shares to be evidenced in a book entry account maintained by its stock transfer agent, (ii) any reference in Sections 8.2 through 8.4 of the Plan to
Shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award being held by the Company shall include any Shares being held in a book entry account maintained by the Company’s stock transfer agent, and (iii) the Company shall have the same right to delay the
entry of the Shares in a book entry account maintained by its stock transfer agent as its right to delay delivery of Shares subject to an Award pursuant to Sections 18.1 and 21 of the Plan. 

9. Stock Appreciation Rights 

9.1 Grant of SAR. The Committee, in its discretion, may grant a Participant an SAR on a stand alone basis (i.e.,
independent of an Option). 
 9.2 Limitations on Exercise. Each SAR granted on a stand alone basis shall be
exercisable to the extent, and for such Term, as the Committee may determine, provided, however that such Term shall not exceed ten (10) years. The SARs shall be subject to such other terms and conditions as the Committee, in its discretion,
shall determine, which are not otherwise inconsistent with the Plan. The terms and conditions may include Committee approval of the exercise of the SAR, limitations on the time within which and the extent to which such SAR shall be exercisable,
limitations, if any, on the amount of appreciation in value which may be recognized with regard to such SAR, and specification of what portion, if any, of the amount payable to the Employee upon exercise of such SAR shall be payable in cash and what
portion, if any, shall be payable in Shares. If, and to the extent, that Shares are issued in satisfaction of amounts payable on exercise of an SAR, the Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise. 

9.3 Other Terms and Conditions of SARs. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, except in
connection with a change in capitalization described in Section 15, the terms of outstanding Awards may not be amended to reduce the exercise price of outstanding SARs or cancel outstanding SARs in exchange for cash, or other Awards or SARs
with an SAR Base Price that is less than the SAR Base Price of the original SARs without stockholder approval. 
 10. Stock
Units Awards of Stock Units granted under the Plan shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine and set forth in the related Stock Unit Award Agreements. 

10.1 Number of Shares. Each Stock Unit Award Agreement shall set forth the number of Shares subject to such
Award. 
 10.2 Rights of Participant. A Participant awarded Stock Units pursuant to the terms of this Plan
shall not be deemed to be the beneficial owner of Shares underlying the Stock Units. Each Stock Unit shall represent the right of the Participant to receive an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of the payment of such


  
 xi 








 
Stock Unit. A holder of Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company. Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject
to the terms and conditions of the applicable Stock Unit Award Agreement. 
 10.3 Terms of the Stock Units.
Each Stock Unit Award Agreement granting one or more Stock Units shall contain such other terms and conditions, including but not limited to provision for payment of dividend equivalents, not inconsistent herewith as shall be approved by the
Committee, and may vest based on the passage of time or the achievement of one or more Performance Goals. 
 10.4
Payment of Stock Units. Payments made with respect to Stock Units may be made in the form of cash, Shares or any combination of both and at such time as determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of the Stock Units. 

11. Director Awards. 

11.1 Grant of Director Awards. Each Director, who is a Director as of the date of the annual meeting of the Board
with respect to any given year (such date, the “Meeting Date”) and has been a Director for the entire period since the annual meeting of shareholders of Myers held in the immediately preceding calendar year, shall be granted a Director
Award for a number of full Shares determined by dividing the Applicable Director Amount by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the grant date, such grant to be made as of such Meeting Date without further action by the Committee. The Applicable
Director Amount shall be recommended by the Committee based on an annual review of the total Board compensation package and approved by the full Board. Each Director Award shall be evidenced by a Director Award Agreement. The number of Shares
granted under a Director Award shall be issued in the recipient Director’s name on the date of grant of such Director Award or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. Shares received pursuant to Director Awards shall be duly issued or
transferred to the Director, and a certificate or certificates for such Shares shall be issued in the Director’s name. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may determine to grant Directors Stock Units in lieu of a grant of Shares. 

11.2 Rights of Directors. A recipient Director shall thereupon be a stockholder with respect to all the Shares
represented by such certificate or certificates and shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote such Shares and to receive dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11, each Director entitled to receive a Director Award of Shares on a particular Meeting Date shall have the right to elect to receive and be granted a Director Award for a number of full
Stock Units determined by dividing the Applicable Director Amount by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the grant date in lieu of receiving a Director Award for an equivalent number of Shares on such Meeting Date. Any such election must be made in
a written notice delivered to the Chairman of the Board or his designee on or before the Meeting Date for the calendar year immediately preceding the applicable Meeting Date, which election once made, shall be irrevocable. Any Stock Units granted to
a Director pursuant to any 

  
 xii 








 
such election or as provided in Section 11.1 shall provide that the Company will make a payment to such Director on the date that such Director ceases to be a member of the Board for any
reason whatsoever of one Share for each such Stock Unit then held by such Director, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practical, but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the date that such Director ceased to be a member of
the Board, and will be subject to such other terms, including but not limited to provision for the payment of dividend equivalents, as contained in a Stock Unit Agreement approved by the Board, the execution of which shall be a condition to the
receipt of the Stock Units. 
 11.3 Issuance of Shares in Book Entry Form. Shares subject to a Director
Award as described in this Section 11 of the Plan, may be issued in book entry form and evidenced by a book entry account maintained by the Company’s stock transfer agent, in which case (i) any requirement that certificates for Shares
subject to a Director Award be issued or delivered to a Director pursuant to this Section 11 of the Plan shall be satisfied by the Company causing such Shares to be evidenced in a book entry account maintained by its stock transfer agent, and
(ii) the Company shall have the same right to delay the entry of the Shares in a book entry account maintained by its stock transfer agent as its right to delay delivery of Shares subject to an Award pursuant to Sections 18.1 and 21 of the
Plan. 
 12. Date of Grant The date of grant of an Award granted hereunder shall be the date on which the Committee acts in
granting the Award or, if later, such other date as the Committee shall specify. 
 13. Exercise of Rights Under Awards and Recoupment
of Certain Compensation. 
 13.1 Notice of Exercise. A Participant entitled to exercise an Award
may do so by delivery of a written notice to that effect specifying the number of Shares or SARs with respect to which the Award is being exercised and any other information the Committee may prescribe. The notice shall be accompanied by payment in
full of the purchase price of any Shares to be purchased, which payment may be made in cash or, with the Committee’s approval in Shares valued at Fair Market Value at the time of exercise or a combination thereof. No Shares shall be issued upon
exercise of an Option until full payment has been made therefor. All notices or requests provided for herein shall be delivered to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, or such other person as the Committee shall designate. 

13.2 Cashless Exercise Procedures. The Company, in its sole discretion, may establish procedures whereby a
Participant, subject to the requirements of Rule 16b-3, Regulation T, federal income tax laws, and other federal, state and local tax and securities laws, can exercise an Option or a portion thereof without making a direct payment of the option
price to the Company; provided, however, that these cashless exercise procedures shall not apply to Incentive Stock Options which are outstanding on the date the Company establishes such procedures unless the application of such procedures to such


  
 xiii 








 
Options is permitted pursuant to the Code and the regulations thereunder without affecting the Options’ qualification under Code Section 422 as Incentive Stock Options. If the Company
so elects to establish a cashless exercise program, the Company shall determine, in its sole discretion, and from time to time, such administrative procedures and policies as it deems appropriate and such procedures and policies shall be binding on
any Participant wishing to utilize the cashless exercise program. 
 13.3 Rights of Award Holder. Except
as set forth in Section 8 and Section 11 of the Plan, the holder of an Award shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to purchase or receipt under his Award, except to the extent that one or more
certificates for such Shares shall be delivered to him upon the due exercise or grant of the Award. Shares subject to an Award under the Plan may be issued in book entry form and evidenced by a book entry account maintained by the Company’s
stock transfer agent, in which case (i) any requirement that certificates for Shares subject to an Award be issued or delivered to a Participant or Director pursuant to Section this Section 13.3 of the Plan shall be satisfied by the
Company causing such Shares to be evidenced in a book entry account maintained by its stock transfer agent, and (ii) the Company shall have the same right to delay the entry of the Shares in a book entry account maintained by its stock transfer
agent as its right to delay delivery of Shares subject to an Award pursuant to Sections 18.1 and 21 of the Plan. 
 13.4
Recoupment of Certain Compensation Attributable to Awards. Any Award granted hereunder shall be subject to any Clawback Policy adopted by the Board and then in effect. 

14. Nontransferability of Awards An Award shall not be transferable, other than: (a) by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, and an Award may be exercised, during the lifetime of the holder of the Award, only by the holder or in the event of death, the holder’s Successor, or in the event of disability, the holder’s personal representative, or
(b) pursuant to a qualified domestic relation order, as defined in the Code or the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) or the rules thereunder; provided, however, that an Incentive Stock Option may not be transferred pursuant to a
qualified domestic relations order unless such transfer is otherwise permitted pursuant to the Code and the regulations thereunder without affecting the Option’s qualification under Code Section 422 as an Incentive Stock Option. 

15. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization In the event of changes in all of the outstanding Shares by reason of stock
dividends, stock splits, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, combinations, or exchanges of shares, separations, reorganizations or liquidations, or similar events, or in the event of extraordinary cash or non-cash dividends being declared
with respect to the Shares, or similar transactions or events, the number and class of Shares available under the Plan in the aggregate, the number and class of Shares subject to Awards theretofore granted, applicable purchase prices, Option prices,
SAR Base Prices, individual share limits, and all other applicable provisions, shall, subject to the provisions of the Plan, be equitably adjusted by the Committee (which adjustment may, but need not, include payment to the holder of an Option or
SAR, in cash or in shares, in an amount equal to the difference between the price at which such Award may be exercised and the then current Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Option as equitably determined by the Committee) in


  
 xiv 








 
order to prevent the diminution or enlargement of benefits thereunder. The foregoing adjustment and the manner of application of the foregoing provisions shall be determined by the Committee, in
its sole discretion; provided, however, that to the extent applicable, any adjustment to an Incentive Stock Option shall be made in a manner consistent with Section 424 of the Code. Any such adjustment may provide for the elimination of any
fractional share which might otherwise become subject to an Award. 
 16. Change in Control Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in the Plan or any Award Agreement, in the case of a Change of Control, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine, on a case by case basis, that each Award, other than an Award of Stock Units, granted under the Plan shall
terminate upon the later of (i) the thirtieth (30th) day after the Award holder receives written notice from the Company of its intention to terminate the Award, or (ii) the
consummation of such Change of Control, but, in the event of any such termination, an Option or SAR holder shall have the right, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control and subject to any limitation on the exercise of such Option
or SAR in effect on the date of exercise, to exercise such Option or SAR, prior to its termination, as to the portion of the Option or SAR with respect to which the holder’s right to exercise the Option or SAR had previously vested as of the
termination date. Except as provided in an Award Agreement, or a written employment agreement or separation agreement in effect on the Effective Date, the Company will not accelerate the vesting of any outstanding Awards in connection with a Change
in Control unless either (i) such acceleration is conditioned upon the employment of the holder of an outstanding Award being terminated on or after such Change in Control or (ii) any such outstanding Awards are not assumed or replaced
with a substituted award or right having a substantially equivalent economic value and substantially equivalent or better terms and conditions. 

17. Forms of Awards Nothing contained in the Plan nor any resolution adopted or to be adopted by the Board, the Committee or by
the stockholders of the Company shall constitute the granting of any Award. An Award shall be granted hereunder only by action taken by the Committee in granting an Award. Whenever the Committee shall designate a Participant or Director for the
receipt of an Award, the President of the Company, or such other person as the Committee shall designate, shall forthwith send notice thereof to the Participant or Director, in such form as the Committee shall approve, stating the number of Shares
subject to the Award, its Term, if applicable, and the other terms and conditions thereof. The notice shall be accompanied by an Award Agreement in such form as may from time to time hereafter be approved by the Committee, which shall have been duly
executed by or on behalf of the Company. If the surrender of previously issued Awards is made a condition of the grant, the notice shall set forth the pertinent details of such condition. Execution by the Participant or Director to whom such Award
is granted of an Award Agreement in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Plan shall be a condition precedent to the exercise or grant of any Award. 

18. Taxes 

18.1 Right to Withhold Required Taxes. The Company shall have the right to require a person entitled to receive
Shares pursuant to receipt, vesting or exercise of an Award under the Plan to pay the Company the amount of any taxes which the Company is or will be required to withhold with respect to such Shares before the certificate for


  
 xv 








 
such Shares is delivered pursuant to the Award. Furthermore, the Company may elect to deduct such taxes from any other amounts then payable in cash or in shares or from any other amounts payable
any time thereafter to the Participant. If an Employee disposes of Shares acquired pursuant to an Incentive Stock Option in any transaction considered to be a disqualifying transaction under Sections 421 and 422 of the Code, the Employee shall
notify the Company of such transfer and the Company shall have the right to deduct any taxes required by law to be withheld from any amounts otherwise payable then or at any time thereafter to the Employee. Shares subject to an Award under the Plan
may be issued in book entry form and evidenced by a book entry account maintained by the Company’s stock transfer agent, in which case the Company shall have the same right to delay the entry of the Shares in a book entry account maintained by
its stock transfer agent as its right to delay delivery of Shares subject to an Award pursuant to this Section 18.1 and Section 21 of the Plan. 

18.2 Election to Withhold Shares. Subject to Committee approval, a Participant may elect to satisfy his tax
liability with respect to the exercise of an Option or the receipt or vesting of a Restricted Stock Award or payment of a Stock Unit Award by having the Company withhold Shares otherwise issuable upon exercise of the Option or deliverable upon the
grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Award or payment of a Stock Unit Award; provided, however, that if a Participant is subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, such election must satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3. 

19. Termination of the Plan The Plan shall terminate ten (10) years from the Effective Date hereof, and an Award
shall not be granted under the Plan after that date although the terms of any Awards may be amended at any date prior to the end of its Term in accordance with the Plan. Any Awards outstanding at the time of termination of the Plan shall continue in
full force and effect according to the terms and conditions of the Award and this Plan. 
 20. Amendment of the Plan
The Plan may be amended at any time and from time to time by the Board, but no amendment without the approval of the stockholders of the Company shall be made if stockholder approval would be required under any applicable law. Notwithstanding the
discretionary authority granted to the Committee in Section 4 of the Plan, no amendment of the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan shall impair any of the rights of any holder, without such holder’s consent, under any Award
theretofore granted under the Plan. 
 21. Delivery of Shares on Exercise Delivery of certificates for Shares pursuant
to the grant or exercise of an Award may be postponed by the Company for such period as may be required for it with reasonable diligence to comply with any applicable requirements of any federal, state or local law or regulation or any
administrative or quasi-administrative requirement applicable to the sale, issuance, distribution or delivery of such Shares. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, require a Participant to furnish the Company with appropriate representations
and a written investment letter prior to the receipt or exercise of an Award or the delivery of any Shares pursuant to an Award. Shares subject to an Award under the Plan may be issued in book entry form and evidenced by a book entry account
maintained by the Company’s stock transfer agent, in which case the Company shall have the same right to delay the entry of the Shares in a book entry account maintained by its stock transfer agent as its right to delay delivery of Shares
subject to an Award pursuant to Section 18.1 and this Section 21 of the Plan. 

  
 xvi 








 22. Fees and Costs. The Company shall pay all original issue taxes on the grant or
exercise of any Award granted under the Plan and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Company in connection therewith. 

23. Effectiveness of the Plan The Plan shall be submitted to the Company’s shareholders for approval and unless the Plan is
approved either (i) by the affirmative votes of the holders of shares having a majority of the voting power of all shares represented at a meeting duly held in accordance with Ohio law within twelve (12) months after being approved by the
Board, or (ii) by a written consent of shareholders in accordance with Ohio law within twelve (12) months after being approved by the Board, the Plan (and all Awards made from the additional One Million (1,000,000) Shares added to the
Plan) shall be void and of no force and effect, and the Existing Plan shall continue in full force and effect. 
 24. Other
Provisions. As used in the Plan, and in Awards and other documents prepared in implementation of the Plan, references to the masculine pronoun shall be deemed to refer to the feminine or neuter, and references in the singular or the plural
shall refer to the plural or the singular, as the identity of the person or persons or entity or entities being referred to may require. The captions used in the Plan and in such Awards and other documents prepared in implementation of the Plan are
for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning of any provision hereof or thereof. 
 25. Effect on Employment Neither
the adoption of this Plan, its operation, nor any of the Award Agreements or other documents described or referred to in the Plan shall confer upon any person any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or in any way affect any right or power of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate the employment or service of any person at any time for any reason whatsoever. 

26. International Participants To the extent that the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, to comply with foreign laws
or practices and to further the purpose of the Plan, the Committee may, amend the terms of the Plan or Awards in order to conform with the requirements of such foreign laws or practices. 

27. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code The Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and the
regulations thereunder, to the extent applicable. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Plan shall be interpreted, operated and administered consistent with this intent. In that regard, and notwithstanding any provision of
the Plan to the contrary, the Company reserves the right to amend the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan, by action of the Committee, without the consent of the any affected Participant or Director, to the extent deemed necessary or
appropriate for purposes of maintaining compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder. 
 28. Ohio Law
to Govern This Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio.
