 (b) Powers of the Committee.

questions of interpretation, administration and application of the Plan shall be determined by a majority of the members of the Committee then in office, except that the Committee may authorize any one or more of its members, any officer or other
designee of the Company, to execute and deliver documents on behalf of the Committee. The determination of such majority shall be final and binding as to all matters relating to the Plan. 

(ii) The Committee shall have authority to select Participants from among the class of eligible persons specified in
Section 1.4 below, to determine the type of Award to be granted, to determine the number of shares of Common Stock subject to an Award or the cash amount payable in connection with an Award, and to determine the terms and conditions of each
Award in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Except as provided in Section 2.5, 2.6(g) and Section 5.4, the Committee shall also have the authority to amend the terms of any outstanding Award or waive any conditions or restrictions
applicable to any Award; provided, however, that no amendment shall materially impair the rights of the holder thereof without the holder’s consent. With respect to any restrictions in the Plan or in any Agreement that are based on the
requirements of Section 422 of the Code, the Section 162(m) Exception, the rules of any exchange upon which the Company’s securities are listed, or any other applicable law, rule or restriction to the extent that any such restrictions
are no longer required, the Committee shall have the sole discretion and authority to grant Awards that are not subject to such restrictions and/or to waive any such restrictions with respect to outstanding Awards. 

(c) Delegation by the Committee. The Committee may, but need not, from time to time delegate, to the extent permitted by law, some or all of
its authority under the Plan to an Administrator consisting of one or more members of the Committee or of one or more officers of the Company; provided, however, that the Committee may not delegate its authority (i) to make Awards to employees
(A) who are subject on the date of the Award to the reporting rules under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, (B) whose compensation for such fiscal year may be subject to the limit on deductible compensation pursuant to
Section 162(m) or (C) who are officers of the Company who are delegated authority by the Committee hereunder, or (ii) to interpret the Plan or any Award, or (iii) under Article IX of the Plan. Any delegation hereunder shall be
subject to the restrictions and limits that the Committee specifies at the time of such delegation or thereafter. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed as obligating the Committee to delegate authority to an Administrator, and the Committee may at
any time rescind the authority delegated to an Administrator appointed hereunder or appoint a new Administrator. At all times, the Administrator appointed under this Section 1.3(c) shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Committee.
Any action undertaken by the Administrator in accordance with the Committee’s delegation of authority shall have the same force and effect as if undertaken directly by the Committee, and any reference in the Plan to the Committee shall, to the
extent consistent with the terms and limitations of such delegation, be deemed to include a reference to the Administrator. 
 Section 1.4 Eligible
Persons. 
 Awards may be granted to any employee, director or other Service Provider of the Company or any of its Affiliates. 

Section 1.5 Common Stock Subject to the Plan. 

(a) Plan Limit. The shares of Common Stock subject to Awards under the Plan shall be made available from authorized but unissued Common Stock
or from Common Stock issued and held in the treasury of the Company. Subject to adjustment under Article VII hereof, the total number of shares of Common Stock that may be distributed under the Plan (the “Section 1.5 Limit”) shall not
exceed, in the aggregate, 87,500,000 shares of Common Stock plus the number of shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding awards under the Prior Plan 

  
 5 








 
as of the Effective Date that terminate by expiration, forfeiture, cancellation or otherwise after the Effective Date (the “Returning Shares”). The Section 1.5 Limit, including the
Returning Shares, shall be split between the Stock Option/Stock Appreciation Award Limit and the Full Value Award Limit as provided in Section 1.5(b). 

(b) Plan Sub Limits. 

(i) The maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued in conjunction with Awards of Stock Options and
Stock Appreciation Rights is 12,500,000 shares (the “Stock Option/Stock Appreciation Right Award Limit”) plus the number of Returning Shares that were subject to outstanding awards of stock options and stock appreciation rights under the
Prior Plan. 
 (ii) Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.5(c), the maximum aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock that may be issued in conjunction with Awards (other than Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Awards denominated in dollars) (a “Full Value Award”) is 75,000,000 shares (the “Full Value Award Limit”) plus the number
of Returning Shares that were subject to outstanding awards (other than stock options, stock appreciation rights or awards denominated in dollars) under the Prior Plan. 

(c) Rules Applicable to Determining Shares Available for Issuance. For purposes of determining the number of shares of Common Stock that
remain available for issuance, the following rules apply: 
 (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 1.5, a Full Value Award may be granted in excess of the Full Value Award Limit. Any such Award shall be made against a Stock Option/Stock Appreciation Right Award Limit and such Full Value Award shall be counted against the Stock
Option/Stock Appreciation Award Limit as 2.5 shares of Common Stock for every one share of Common Stock subject to such Full Value Award. 

(ii) To the extent permitted by law or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed,
the number of shares of Common Stock that shall be added back to the Section 1.5 Limit and the Stock Option/Stock Appreciation Award Limit or Full Value Award Limit, as applicable, and shall again be available for Awards, shall be the
corresponding number of shares of Common Stock that are (A) subject to an Award which for any reason expires or is cancelled, forfeited, or terminated without having been exercised or paid and (B) subject to Awards that are instead settled
in cash in the same amount as such shares of Common Stock were counted against the Section 1.5 Limit and the Stock Option/Stock Appreciation Award Limit and Full Value Award Limit, as applicable, as set forth in Section 1.5(c). 

(iii) The number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall not be increased by the number of
shares of Common Stock (A) tendered or withheld or subject to an Award surrendered in connection with the purchase of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of a Stock Option, (B) deducted or delivered from payment of an Award of a Stock
Option or Stock Appreciation Right in connection with the Company’s tax withholding obligations, or (C) purchased by the Company with proceeds from the exercise of Stock Options. Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan shall
reduce the Stock Option/Stock Appreciation Award Limit on a one-for-one basis based on the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Stock Appreciation Rights are denominated, not based on the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered
pursuant to the Stock Appreciation Rights. 
 (iv) Any shares of Common Stock underlying Substitute Awards shall not be
counted against the Section 1.5 Limit or the Stock Option/Stock Appreciation Award Limit or Full Value Award Limit, as applicable. 
 Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 1.5 to the contrary, in no event shall more than 87,500,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment pursuant to Article VII hereof, be granted pursuant to Incentive Stock Options under the Plan.

 Section 1.6 Section 162(m) Limits on Awards to Participants. 

(a) Limits on Certain Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. The maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be granted
to any Participant during any single calendar year with respect to Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights that are granted at no less than 100% of Fair Market Value on the Date of Grant is 3,000,000 (regardless of whether Stock Appreciation
Rights are settled in cash, Common Stock, other Company securities or a combination thereof) unless the grant is made in the Participant’s year of hire, in which case the limit is 5,000,000, subject to adjustment pursuant to Article VII hereof.

 (b) Limits on other Awards. The maximum amount of Awards (other than those Awards set forth in Section 1.6(a)) intended to qualify
for the Section 162(m) Exception that may be awarded to any Participant in respect of any Performance Period is $25,000,000 (with respect to Awards denominated in cash) and 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock (with respect to Awards denominated in
shares of Common Stock), subject to adjustment pursuant to Article VII hereof. 
 Section 1.7 Agreements. 

The Committee shall determine and set forth in an Agreement the terms and conditions of each Award (other than an Award of unrestricted Common
Stock). Each Agreement (i) shall state the Date of Grant and the name of the Participant, (ii) shall specify the terms of the Award, (iii) shall be signed (including by electronic signature) by a person designated by the Committee
and, if so required by the Committee, by the Participant, (iv) shall incorporate the Plan by reference and (v) shall be delivered or otherwise made available to the Participant. The Agreement shall contain such other terms and conditions
as are required by the Plan and, in addition, such other terms not inconsistent with the Plan as the Committee may deem advisable. The Committee shall have the authority to adjust the terms of the Agreements relating to an Award in a jurisdiction
outside of the United States, and/or to adopt a schedule to the Plan regarding the terms of Awards to be granted in any such jurisdiction, (i) to comply with the laws of such jurisdiction or (ii) to obtain more favorable tax treatment for
the Company and/or any Affiliate, as applicable, and/or for the Participants in such jurisdiction. Such authority shall be notwithstanding the fact that the requirements of the local jurisdiction may be more restrictive than the terms set forth in
the Plan. 
 Section 1.8 Forfeiture; Recoupment. 

The Committee may reserve the right in an Agreement to cause a forfeiture of the gain realized by a Participant with respect to an Award under
such Agreement on account of actions taken by, or failed to be taken by, the Participant in violation or breach of or in conflict with any (i) employment agreement, (ii) non-competition agreement, (iii) agreement prohibiting
solicitation of employees or clients of the Company or any Affiliate, (iv) confidentiality obligation with respect to the Company or any Affiliate, (v) Company policy or procedure including, without limitation, the Company’s Standards
of Business Conduct, (vi) other agreement or (vii) any other obligation of the Participant to the Company or any affiliate, as and to the extent specified in the applicable Agreement. Any Award granted under the Plan shall be subject to
mandatory repayment by the Participant to the Company to the extent the Participant is, or in the future becomes, subject to (a) any Company “clawback” or recoupment policy that is adopted to comply with the requirements of any
applicable law, rule or regulation, or otherwise, or (b) any law, rule or regulation that imposes mandatory recoupment, under circumstances set forth in such law, rule or regulation.

 ARTICLE II 

PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO STOCK OPTIONS AND 

STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 

Section 2.1 Grants of Stock Options. 

The Committee may from time to time grant to eligible employees, directors or other Service Providers of the Company or any of its Affiliates
Stock Options on the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and on such other terms and conditions as are not inconsistent with the purposes and provisions of the Plan, as the Committee, in its discretion, may from time to time determine. Each
Agreement covering a grant of a Stock Option shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Option, the Date of Grant, the exercise price of such Stock Option, whether such Stock Option is an Incentive Stock Option or a
Non-Qualified Stock Option, the period during which such Stock Option may be exercised, any vesting schedule, any Performance Goals and any other terms that the Committee deems appropriate. 

Section 2.2 Exercise Price. 
 The
Committee shall establish the per share exercise price of a Stock Option on the Date of Grant in such amount as the Committee shall determine; provided that such exercise price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of
Common Stock on the Date of Grant. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, the per share exercise price of a Stock Option that is a Substitute Award may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Date of Grant,
provided that the excess of: 
 (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the Date of Grant of such Substitute Award) of
the shares of Common Stock subject to the Substitute Award, over 
 (ii) the aggregate exercise price thereof, does not
exceed the excess of: 
 (iii) the aggregate fair market value (as of the time immediately preceding the transaction
pursuant to which the Substitute Award was granted, such fair market value to be determined by the Committee) of the shares of the predecessor entity that were subject to the award assumed or substituted for by the Company, over 

(iv) the aggregate exercise price of such shares. 

The exercise price of any Stock Option will be subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Article VII of the Plan. 

Section 2.3 Exercise of Stock Options. 

(a) Exercisability. Stock Options shall be exercisable only to the extent the Participant is vested therein, subject to any restrictions that
the Committee shall determine and specify in the applicable Agreement (or any employment agreement applicable to the Participant). The Committee shall establish the vesting schedule applicable to a Stock Option granted hereunder, which vesting
schedule shall specify the period of time, the increments in which a Participant shall vest in the Stock Option and/or any applicable Performance Goal requirements, subject to any restrictions that the Committee shall determine and specify in the
applicable Agreement (or any employment agreement applicable to the Participant). 
 (b) Option Period. For each Stock Option granted, the
Committee shall specify the period during which the Stock Option may be exercised. 

  
 8 








 (c) Exercise in the Event of Termination of Service. The Committee shall determine and specify in
the applicable Agreement (or any employment agreement applicable to the Participant) the extent to which a Participant shall have the right to exercise his Outstanding Stock Options if a Participant’s Service with the Company or any of its
Affiliates ends for any reason and the length of time during which such Outstanding Stock Options may be exercised to the extent exercisable after the date of such termination of Service. Such provisions need not be uniform among all Stock Options
and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination of Service. 
 (d) Maximum Exercise Period. Anything in
Section 2.3(b) or Section 2.3(c) to the contrary notwithstanding and unless the Committee determines otherwise, no Stock Option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date. If the Expiration Date determined in accordance with the
preceding sentence is not a business day, the Stock Options may be exercised up to and including the last business day before such date. 

(e) Adjustment with Respect to Stock Options. Any other provision of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee may, in its
discretion, at any time accelerate the date or dates on which Stock Options vest. 
 Section 2.4 Payment of Purchase Price Upon Exercise. 

Every share purchased through the exercise of a Stock Option shall be paid for in full on or before the settlement date for the shares of
Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of the Stock Options in cash or, in the discretion of the Committee, in shares of Common Stock, in a combination of cash or shares or in any other form of valid consideration that is acceptable to the
Committee in its sole discretion. If the Agreement so provides, such exercise price may also be paid in whole or in part using a net share settlement procedure or through the withholding of shares subject to the Stock Option with a value equal to
the exercise price. In accordance with the rules and procedures established by the Committee for this purpose, a Stock Option may also be exercised through a “cashless exercise” procedure, approved by the Committee, involving a broker or
dealer, that affords Participants the opportunity to sell immediately some or all of the shares underlying the exercised portion of the Stock Option in order to generate sufficient cash to pay the exercise price of the Option. 

Section 2.5 No Repricing of Stock Options. 

The Committee may not “reprice” any Stock Option without approval of the Company’s stockholders. “Reprice” means any
of the following or any other action that has the same effect: (i) amending the terms of a Stock Option to reduce its exercise price, (ii) canceling a Stock Option at a time when its exercise price exceeds the Fair Market Value of a share
of Common Stock in exchange for a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original Stock Option or a Restricted Share or other equity award unless the cancellation and exchange
occurs in connection with a merger, acquisition, spin-off or other similar corporate transaction, (iii) canceling a Stock Option at a time when its exercise price exceeds the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock in exchange for cash or
other securities or (iv) taking any other action that is treated as a repricing under GAAP, provided that nothing in this Section 2.5 shall prevent the Committee from making adjustments pursuant to Article VII. 

Section 2.6 Stock Appreciation Rights. 

(a) Generally. The Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights alone or in tandem with other Awards. 

(b) Stock Appreciation Rights Granted In Tandem with Stock Options. If the Stock Appreciation Right is granted in tandem with a Stock Option,
such Stock Appreciation Right may be granted either at the time of the grant of the Stock Option or by amendment at any time prior to the exercise, expiration or termination of such Stock Option. The Stock Appreciation Right shall be subject to the
same terms and conditions as the related Stock Option and shall be exercisable only at such times and to such extent as the related Stock Option is 

  
 9 








 
exercisable. A Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle the holder to surrender to the Company the related Stock Option unexercised and receive from the Company in exchange therefor an amount equal
to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Option, determined as of the day preceding the surrender of such Stock Option, over the Stock Option aggregate exercise price. Such amount shall be paid in
cash, or in the discretion of the Committee, in shares of Common Stock or in a combination of cash or shares of Common Stock. 
 (c) Stock
Appreciation Rights Granted Alone or In Tandem with Awards Other Than Stock Options. Subject to the next sentence and Section 2.6(e), Stock Appreciation Rights granted alone or in tandem with Awards other than Stock Options shall be subject to
such terms and conditions as the Committee shall establish at or after the time of grant and set forth in the applicable Agreement. The Committee shall establish the per share exercise price of a Stock Appreciation Right granted alone on the Date of
Grant in such amount as the Committee shall determine; provided that such exercise price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Date of Grant. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, the per share
exercise price of a Stock Appreciation Right that is a Substitute Award may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Date of Grant; provided that the excess of: 

(i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the Date of Grant of such Substitute Award) of the shares of Common Stock subject
to the Substitute Award, over 
 (ii) the aggregate exercise price thereof, does not exceed the excess of: 

(iii) the aggregate fair market value (as of the time immediately preceding the transaction pursuant to which the Substitute
Award was granted, such fair market value to be determined by the Committee) of the shares of the predecessor entity that were subject to the award assumed or substituted for by the Company, over 

(iv) the aggregate exercise price of such shares. 

The exercise price of any Stock Appreciation Right will be subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Article VII of the Plan. The period
specified by the Committee during which the Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised is the Stock Appreciation Right period. 
 (d)
Exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights Granted Alone or In Tandem with Awards Other Than Stock Options in the Event of Termination of Service. The Committee shall determine and specify in the applicable Agreement (or any employment agreement
applicable to the Participant) the extent to which a Participant shall have the right to exercise his Outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights if a Participant’s Service with the Company or any of its Affiliates ends for any reason and the length
of time during which such Outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised to the extent exercisable after the date of such termination of Service. Such provisions need not be uniform among all Stock Appreciation Rights and may reflect
distinctions based on the reasons for termination of Service. 
 (e) Maximum Exercise Period. Anything in Section 2.6(c) or
Section 2.6(d) to the contrary notwithstanding and unless the Committee determines otherwise, no Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date. If the Expiration Date determined in accordance with the preceding
sentence is not a business day, the Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised up to and including the last business day before such date. 

(f) Adjustment with Respect to Stock Appreciation Rights. Any other provision of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee may,
in its discretion, at any time accelerate the date or dates on which Stock Appreciation Rights vest. 
 (g) No Repricing of Stock
Appreciation Rights. The Committee may not “reprice” Stock Appreciation Rights without approval of the Company’s stockholders. “Reprice” means any of the following or any other


  
 10 








 
action that has the same effect: (i) amending the terms of a Stock Appreciation Right to reduce its exercise price, (ii) canceling a Stock Appreciation Right at a time when its exercise
price exceeds the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock in exchange for a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original Stock Appreciation Right or a Restricted Share or
other equity award unless the cancellation and exchange occurs in connection with a merger, acquisition, spin-off or other similar corporate transaction, (iii) canceling a Stock Appreciation Right at a time when its exercise price exceeds the
Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock in exchange for cash or other securities or (iv) taking any other action that is treated as a repricing under GAAP, provided that nothing in this Section 2.6(g) shall prevent the Committee from
making adjustments pursuant to Article VII. 
 ARTICLE III 

PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO RESTRICTED SHARES 

Section 3.1 Grants of Restricted Shares. 

The Committee may from time to time grant to eligible employees or other Service Providers Restricted Shares on the terms and conditions set
forth in the Plan and on such other terms and conditions as are not inconsistent with the purposes and provisions of the Plan, as the Committee, in its discretion, may from time to time determine. Each Agreement covering a grant of Restricted Shares
shall specify the number of Restricted Shares granted, the Date of Grant, the price, if any, to be paid by the Participant for such Restricted Shares, the vesting schedule (as provided for in Section 3.2 hereof) and any Performance Goals for
such Restricted Shares and any other terms that the Committee deems appropriate. 
 Section 3.2 Vesting. 

The Committee shall establish the vesting schedule applicable to Restricted Shares granted hereunder, which vesting schedule shall specify the
period of time, the increments in which a Participant shall vest in the Restricted Shares and/or any applicable Performance Goal requirements, subject to any restrictions that the Committee shall determine and specify in the applicable Agreement,
provided that vesting schedules shall remain in effect (in whole or in part) at least until the first anniversary of the Date of Grant, except as provided in the applicable Agreement in the event of death, Permanent Disability, Retirement, Change in
Control, constructive termination of Service, or termination by the Company other than Termination for Cause. 
 Section 3.3 Rights and Restrictions
Governing Restricted Shares. 
 The Participant shall have all rights of a holder as to such shares of Common Stock (including, to the
extent applicable, the right to receive dividends and to vote), except that none of the Restricted Shares may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of until such shares have vested. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, dividends paid on Restricted Shares that vest or are earned based upon the achievement of Performance Goals will be accrued during the Performance Period applicable to such Restricted Shares, and such dividends will vest and be paid only
if the Performance Goals for the underlying Restricted Shares are achieved, and if the Performance Goals are not achieved, the Participant shall forfeit all unvested dividends with respect to such Restricted Shares. 

Section 3.4 Adjustment with Respect to Restricted Shares. 

Any other provision of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee may, in its discretion, at any time accelerate the date or
dates on which Restricted Shares vest. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, remove any and all restrictions on such Restricted Shares whenever it may determine that, by reason of changes in applicable law, the rules of any stock exchange on
which the Common Stock is listed or other changes in circumstances arising after the Date of Grant, such action is appropriate. 

  
 11 








 Section 3.5 Delivery of Restricted Shares. 

On the date on which Restricted Shares vest, all restrictions contained in the Agreement covering such Restricted Shares and in the Plan shall
lapse as to such Restricted Shares. Restricted Share Awards issued hereunder may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee in its discretion shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, book-entry registration or issuance of one or more
stock certificates. If stock certificates are issued, such certificates shall be delivered to the Participant or such certificates shall be credited to a brokerage account if the Participant so directs; provided, however, that such certificates
shall bear such legends as the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine to be necessary or advisable in order to comply with applicable federal or state securities laws. 

Section 3.6 Termination of Service. 

The Committee shall determine and specify in the applicable Agreement (or any employment agreement applicable to the Participant) the impact
of the Participant’s termination of Service with the Company or any of its Affiliates on his unvested Restricted Shares. Such provisions need not be uniform among all Restricted Share Awards and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for
termination of Service. 
 Section 3.7 Grants of Unrestricted Shares. 

The Committee may, in its sole discretion, make awards of unrestricted Common Stock to eligible Service Providers in recognition of
achievements and performance; provided, that, such awards of unrestricted Common Stock shall be in lieu of salary or cash bonuses otherwise payable to the Service Providers. 

ARTICLE IV 
 PROVISIONS
APPLICABLE TO RESTRICTED SHARE UNITS 
 Section 4.1 Grants of Restricted Share Units. 

The Committee may from time to time grant Restricted Share Units on the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and on such other terms and
conditions as are not inconsistent with the purposes and provisions of the Plan as the Committee, in its discretion, may from time to time determine. Each Restricted Share Unit awarded to a Participant shall correspond to one share of Common Stock.
Each Agreement covering a grant of Restricted Share Units shall specify the number of Restricted Share Units granted, the vesting schedule (as provided for in Section 4.2 hereof) for such Restricted Share Units and any Performance Goals and any
other terms that the Committee deems appropriate. 
 Section 4.2 Vesting. 

The Committee shall establish the vesting schedule applicable to Restricted Share Units granted hereunder, which vesting schedule shall
specify the period of time, the increments in which a Participant shall vest in the Restricted Share Units and/or any applicable Performance Goal requirements, subject to any restrictions that the Committee shall determine and specify in the
applicable Agreement, provided that vesting schedules shall remain in effect (in whole or in part) at least until the first anniversary of the Date of Grant, except as provided in the applicable Agreement in the event of death, Permanent Disability,
Retirement, Change in Control, constructive termination of Service, or termination by the Company other than Termination for Cause. 
 Section 4.3
Adjustment with Respect to Restricted Share Units. 
 Any other provision of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee
may, in its discretion, at any time accelerate the date or dates on which Restricted Share Units vest. 

  
 12 








 Section 4.4 Settlement of Restricted Share Units. 

On the date on which Restricted Share Units vest (unless another date is specified by the Committee in the Agreement), all restrictions
contained in the Agreement covering such Restricted Share Units and in the Plan shall lapse as to such Restricted Share Units and the Restricted Share Units will be payable in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares subject to such
Restricted Share Units or in shares of Common Stock or in a combination of cash or shares of Common Stock. Restricted Share Units paid in Common Stock may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee in its discretion shall deem appropriate,
including, without limitation, book-entry registration or issuance of one or more stock certificates. If stock certificates are issued, such certificates shall be delivered to the Participant or such certificates shall be credited to a brokerage
account if the Participant so directs; provided, however, that such certificates shall bear such legends as the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine to be necessary or advisable in order to comply with applicable federal or state
securities laws. 
 Section 4.5 Termination of Service. 

The Committee shall determine and specify in the applicable Agreement (or any employment agreement applicable to the Participant) the impact
of the Participant’s termination of Service with the Company or any of its Affiliates on his unvested Restricted Share Units. Such provisions need not be uniform among all Restricted Share Unit Awards and may reflect distinctions based on the
reasons for termination of Service. 
 ARTICLE V 

PERFORMANCE AWARDS 
 Section 5.1
Grants of Performance Awards. 
 The Committee may from time to time grant to eligible employees or other Service Providers Performance
Awards consisting of Performance Shares or Performance Units on the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and on such other terms and conditions as are not inconsistent with the purposes and provisions of the Plan, as the Committee, in its
discretion, may from time to time determine. Performance Awards may be granted either alone or in addition to other Awards made under the Plan. 

Section 5.2 Performance Goals. 

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the grant, vesting and/or exercisability of Performance Awards shall be conditioned, in whole or
in part, on the attainment of performance targets, in whole or in part, related to one or more performance goals over a Performance Period. For any such Performance Awards that are intended to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exception, the
performance targets on which the grant, vesting and/or exercisability are conditioned shall be selected by the Committee from among the following goals, on a GAAP or non-GAAP basis (the “Section 162(m) Performance Goals”): Net income,
adjusted net income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, OIBDA, adjusted OIBDA, operating income, adjusted operating income, free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow, net earnings, net earnings from continuing operations, earnings per share, adjusted earnings
per share, revenue, net revenue, operating revenue, total stockholder return, share price, return on equity, return in excess of cost of capital, profit in excess of cost of capital, return on assets, return on invested capital, net operating profit
after tax, operating margin, profit margin or any combination thereof. A Section 162(m) Performance Goal may be stated as a combination of one or more goals (e.g., free cash flow return on invested capital), and on an absolute or relative
basis. 
 In addition, for any Awards not intended to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exception, the Committee may establish performance
targets based on other performance goals as it deems appropriate (together with the Section 162(m) Performance Goals, the “Performance Goals”). The Performance Goals may be described in terms of objectives that are related to the
individual Participant or objectives that are Company-wide or related to 

  
 13 








 
an Affiliate, division, department, region, function or business unit, including, without limitation, financial and operating performance and individual contributions to financial and
non-financial objectives, and the implementation and enforcement of effective compliance programs, and may be measured on an absolute or cumulative basis or on the basis of percentage of improvement over time, and may be measured in terms of Company
performance (or performance of the applicable Affiliate, division, department, region, function or business unit) or measured relative to selected peer companies or a market index. 

Section 5.3 Performance Goals on Awards other than Performance Awards. 

The Committee, in its sole discretion, may also require that the grant, vesting and/or exercisability of Awards other than Performance Awards
be conditioned, in whole or in part, on the attainment of performance targets, in whole or in part, related to Performance Goals over a Performance Period, as described in Section 5.2. 

Section 5.4 Discretion to Reduce Awards. 

The Committee retains the right to reduce any Award below the maximum amount that could be paid based on the degree to which the Performance
Goals related to such Award were attained. The Committee may not increase any Award intended to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exception in any manner that would adversely affect the treatment of the Award under the Section 162(m)
Exception. 
 Section 5.5 Adjustment of Calculation of Performance Goals. 

In the event that, during any Performance Period, any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, acquisition, divestiture, consolidation,
spin-off, combination, liquidation, dissolution, sale of assets or other similar corporate transaction or event, or any other extraordinary event or circumstance occurs which has the effect, as determined by the Committee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, of distorting the applicable performance criteria involving the Company, including, without limitation, changes in accounting standards, the Committee may adjust or modify, as determined by the Committee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, the calculation of the Performance Goals, to the extent necessary to prevent reduction or enlargement of the Participants’ Awards under the Plan for such Performance Period attributable to such transaction, circumstance or event.
All determinations that the Committee makes pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall be conclusive and binding on all persons for all purposes. 

ARTICLE VI 
 DIVIDEND
EQUIVALENTS AND OTHER AWARDS 
 Section 6.1 Dividend Equivalents. 

Subject to the provisions of this Plan and any Agreement, the recipient of an Award other than a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right
(including, without limitation, any Award other than a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right deferred pursuant to Section 8.8) may, if so determined by the Committee, be entitled to receive, currently or on a deferred basis, interest or
dividends or Dividend Equivalents, with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Award, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and the Committee may provide that such amounts (if any) shall be deemed to have
been reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock or otherwise reinvested and/or shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting and forfeiture provisions) as the related Award. Dividends or Dividend Equivalents granted with
respect to an Award that vests or is earned based upon the achievement of Performance Goals will be accrued during the Performance Period applicable to such Award, and such dividends or Dividend Equivalents will vest and be paid only if the
Performance Goals for the underlying Award are achieved, and if the Performance Goals are not achieved, the Participant shall forfeit all unvested dividends or Dividend Equivalent Rights with respect to such Award. 

  
 14 








 Section 6.2 Other Awards. 

The Committee shall have the authority to specify the terms and provisions of other forms of equity-based or equity-related awards not
described above that the Committee determines to be consistent with the purpose of the Plan and the interests of the Company. Other Awards may also include cash payments under the Plan which may be based on one or more criteria determined by the
Committee that are unrelated to the value of Common Stock and that may be granted in tandem with, or independent of, Awards granted under the Plan. 

ARTICLE VII 
 EFFECT OF
CERTAIN CORPORATE CHANGES 
 In the event of a merger, consolidation, stock-split, reverse stock-split, dividend, distribution,
combination, reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, split-up, spin-off or recapitalization that changes the character or amount of the Common Stock, an extraordinary cash dividend or any other changes in the corporate structure, equity
securities or capital structure of the Company, the Committee shall make such adjustments, if any, to (i) the number and kind of securities subject to any outstanding Award, (ii) the exercise price or purchase price, if any, of any
outstanding Award, and (iii) the maximum number and kind of securities referred to in Sections 1.5(a) and (b) and Sections 1.6(a) and (b) of the Plan, in each case, as it deems appropriate. 

In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, also make such other adjustments as it deems appropriate in
order to preserve the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available hereunder, including (i) providing for full vesting of Awards for those Participants whose Service is terminated by the Company in connection with the
consummation of the Change in Control, (ii) providing for the termination of Awards upon the consummation of the Change in Control, in which case vesting and payout of such Awards shall be accelerated for Participants who are Service Providers
at the time of the Change in Control and/or (iii) providing for the cashout of Awards, in which case the amount to be paid out in the case of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units shall be equal to the formula or fixed price per share
paid to holders of shares of Common Stock and, in the case of Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, equal to the product of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right (the “Award
Shares”) multiplied by the amount, if any, by which (X) the formula or fixed price per share paid to holders of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such transaction exceeds (Y) the exercise price applicable to such Award Shares. If
required for compliance with Section 409A of the Code, in no event will a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred if the transaction is not also a “change in the ownership or effective control” of the Company or a “change in
the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of” the Company as determined under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(without regard to any alternative definition thereunder). All determinations that the Committee makes
pursuant to this Article VII shall be conclusive and binding on all persons for all purposes. The Committee need not treat all types of Awards, or all Awards within the same type of Award, in the same manner under this Article VII. 

ARTICLE VIII 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 8.1 No
Rights to Awards or Continued Employment or other Service. 
 Nothing in the Plan or in any Agreement, nor the grant of any Award under
the Plan, shall confer upon any individual any right to be employed by or to continue in the employment or other Service of the Company or any Affiliate thereof, nor to be entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in the Plan or such
Agreement, including the right to receive any future Awards under the Plan or any other plan of the Company or any Affiliate thereof or interfere with or limit the right of the Company or any Affiliate thereof to modify the terms of or terminate
such individual’s employment or other Service at any time for any reason. 

  
 15 








 Section 8.2 Restriction on Transfer. 

The rights of a Participant with respect to any Award shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant and
shall not be transferable by the Participant to whom such Award is granted, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, provided that the Committee may permit other transferability, subject to any conditions and limitations that it may,
in its sole discretion, impose. 
 Section 8.3 Taxes. 

The Company or an Affiliate thereof, as appropriate, shall have the right to deduct from all payments made under the Plan to a Participant or
to a Participant’s estate any federal, state, local or other taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such payments. The Committee, in its discretion, may require, as a condition to the exercise or settlement of any Award or
delivery of any certificate(s) for shares of Common Stock, that an additional amount be paid in cash equal to the amount of any federal, state, local or other taxes required to be withheld as a result of such exercise or settlement. In addition, the
Committee may establish procedures to allow Participants to satisfy such withholding obligations through a net share settlement procedure or the withholding of shares subject to the applicable Award, or through a “cashless exercise”
procedure as described in Section 2.4. Any Participant who makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to have his Award taxed in accordance with such election must give notice to the Company of such election immediately upon making
a valid election in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Code. Any such election must be made in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Code. 

Section 8.4 Stockholder Rights. 
 No
Award under the Plan shall entitle a Participant or a Participant’s estate or permitted transferee to any rights of a holder of shares of Common Stock of the Company, except as provided in Article III with respect to Restricted Shares or when
and until the Participant, the Participant’s estate or the permitted transferee is registered on the books and records of the Company as a stockholder with respect to the exercise or settlement of such Award. 

Section 8.5 No Restriction on Right of Company to Effect Corporate Changes. 

The Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments,
recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds,
debentures, preferred or prior preference stock whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any
sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. 

Section 8.6 Source of Payments. 

The general funds of the Company shall be the sole source of cash settlements of Awards under the Plan and the Company shall not have any
obligation to establish any separate fund or trust or other segregation of assets to provide for payments under the Plan. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust
of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Company and a Participant or any other person. To the extent a person acquires any rights to receive payments hereunder from the Company, such rights shall be no greater than those of an
unsecured creditor. 
 Section 8.7 Exercise Periods Following Termination of Service. 

For the purposes of determining the dates on which Awards may be exercised following a termination of Service or following the Retirement,
death or Permanent Disability of a Participant, the day following the date of 

  
 16 








 
such event shall be the first day of the exercise period and the Award may be exercised up to and including the last business day falling within the exercise period. Thus, if the last day of the
exercise period is not a business day, then the last date an Award may be exercised is the last business day preceding the end of the exercise period. 

Section 8.8 Deferral of Awards. 

The Committee may establish procedures pursuant to which the payment of any Award may be deferred. 

Section 8.9 Employment of Participant by Affiliate. 

Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the Service of a Participant who works for an Affiliate shall terminate, for Plan purposes, on the
date on which the Participant’s employing company ceases to be an Affiliate. 
 Section 8.10 Registration Restrictions. 

A Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall not be exercisable, no transfer of shares of Common Stock shall be made to any Participant,
and any attempt to exercise a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right or to transfer any such shares shall be void and of no effect, unless and until (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, has been duly
filed and declared effective pertaining to the shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right, and the shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right have been duly qualified under
applicable federal or state securities or blue sky laws or (ii) the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines, or the Participant, upon the request of the Committee, provides an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Committee, that such
registration or qualification is not required as a result of the availability of an exemption from registration or qualification under such laws. Without limiting the foregoing, if at any time the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion,
that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Common Stock subject to a Stock Option, Stock Appreciation Right or other Award is required under any federal or state law or on any securities exchange or the consent or approval of
any U.S. or foreign governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, delivery or purchase of such shares under a Stock Option, Stock Appreciation Right or other Award, such Stock Option or Stock
Appreciation Right shall not be exercised in whole or in part, and shares of Common Stock shall not be delivered pursuant to the Award, unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or
obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee. 
 ARTICLE IX 

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 

The Plan may be terminated and may be altered, amended, suspended or terminated at any time, in whole or in part, by the Board; provided,
however, that no alteration or amendment will be effective without stockholder approval if such approval is required by law or under the rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Market or other principal stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed.
No termination or amendment of the Plan may, without the consent of the Participant to whom an Award has been made, materially adversely affect the rights of such Participant in such Award. Unless previously terminated pursuant to this Article IX,
the Plan shall terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date, and no further Awards may be granted hereunder after such date. 

  
 17 








 ARTICLE X 

INTERPRETATION 
 Section 10.1
Governmental Regulations. 
 The Plan, and all Awards hereunder, shall be subject to all applicable rules and regulations of
governmental or other authorities. 
 Section 10.2 Headings. 

The headings of articles and sections herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect the meaning of any of the
provisions of the Plan. 
 Section 10.3 Governing Law. 

The validity and construction of this Plan and the instruments evidencing the Awards hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of
New York, other than any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Plan and the instruments evidencing the Awards granted hereunder to the substantive laws of any other
jurisdiction. 
 Section 10.4 Parachute Taxes. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or of any other agreement, contract, or understanding heretofore or hereafter entered into by
a Participant with the Company or any Affiliate, except an agreement, contract, or understanding that modifies or excludes application of this paragraph (an “Other Agreement”), and notwithstanding any formal or informal plan or other
arrangement for the direct or indirect provision of compensation to the Participant (including groups or classes of Participants or beneficiaries of which the Participant is a member), whether or not such compensation is deferred, is in cash, or is
in the form of a benefit to or for the Participant (a “Benefit Arrangement”), if the Participant is a “disqualified individual,” as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code, any Award held by that Participant and any right to
receive any payment or other benefit under this Plan shall not become exercisable or vested (i) to the extent that such right to exercise, vesting, payment, or benefit, taking into account all other rights, payments, or benefits to or for the
Participant under this Plan, all Other Agreements, and all Benefit Arrangements, would cause any payment or benefit to the Participant under this Plan to be considered a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of
the Code as then in effect (a “Parachute Payment”) and (ii) if, as a result of receiving a Parachute Payment, the aggregate after-tax amounts received by the Participant from the Company under this Plan, all Other Agreements, and all
Benefit Arrangements would be less than the maximum after-tax amount that could be received by the Participant without causing any such payment or benefit to be considered a Parachute Payment. In the event that the receipt of any such right to
exercise, vesting, payment, or benefit under this Plan, in conjunction with all other rights, payments, or benefits to or for the Participant under any Other Agreement or any Benefit Arrangement would cause the Participant to be considered to have
received a Parachute Payment under this Plan that would have the effect of decreasing the after-tax amount received by the Participant as described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, then the Participant’s rights, payments or
benefits under this Plan, any Other Agreements and any Benefit Arrangements will be reduced or eliminated so as to avoid having the payment or benefit to the Participant under this Plan be deemed to be a Parachute Payment. The Company will
accomplish such reduction by first reducing or eliminating any cash payments (with the payments to be made furthest in the future being reduced first), then by reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of Performance Awards, then by reducing
or eliminating any accelerated vesting of Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, then by reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units, then by reducing or eliminating any other Parachute
Payments. 

  
 18 








 Section 10.5 Section 409A of the Code. 

The Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and all regulations, guidance and other interpretive authority issued under
such section (“Section 409A”) to the extent subject to Section 409A, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan will be interpreted and administered to be in compliance with Section 409A. Any payments described
in the Plan that are due within the “short-term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A will not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law, rules or regulations require otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in the Plan, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to the Plan to a Participant who is
a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(i)) as of the date of the Participant’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code that are properly
treated as “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A during the six-month period immediately following the Participant’s termination of Service will instead be paid on the first payroll date after the six-month anniversary
of the Participant’s “separation from service” (or the Grantee’s death, if earlier). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company, any Affiliate nor the Committee will have any obligation to take any action to prevent the
assessment of any excise tax or penalty on any Participant under Section 409A and neither the Company, any Affiliate nor the Committee will have any liability to any Participant for such tax or penalty. 

  
 19
