    	 	9	 



    Fincera Inc. 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan


    

 


(a)          The
Holder’s rights, if any, to exercise any then exercisable Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall terminate:


 


(i)          If
such termination is for a reason other than the Holder’s Total and Permanent Disability or death, ninety (90) days after
the date of such Termination of Service;


 


(ii)         If
such termination is on account of the Holder’s Total and Permanent Disability, one (1) year after the date of such Termination
of Service; or


 


(iii)        If
such termination is on account of the Holder’s death, one (1) year after the date of the Holder’s death.


 


Upon such applicable date the Holder (and
such Holder’s estate, designated beneficiary or other legal representative) shall forfeit any rights or interests in or with
respect to any such Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee, in its sole discretion,
may provide for a different time period in the Award Agreement, or may extend the time period, following a Termination of Service,
during which the Holder has the right to exercise any vested Non-qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right, which time
period may not extend beyond the expiration date of the Award term.


 


(b)          In
the event of a Holder’s Termination of Service for any reason prior to the actual or deemed satisfaction and/or lapse of
the Restrictions, vesting requirements, terms and conditions applicable to a Restricted Stock Award and/or Restricted Stock Unit
Award, such Restricted Stock and/or RSUs shall immediately be canceled, and the Holder (and such Holder’s estate, designated
beneficiary or other legal representative) shall forfeit any rights or interests in and with respect to any such Restricted Stock
and/or RSUs. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine, prior to
or within thirty (30) days after the date of such Termination of Service that all or a portion of any such Holder’s Restricted
Stock and/or RSUs shall not be so canceled and forfeited.


 


6.3           Special
Termination Rule. Except to the extent inconsistent with the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, and notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Article VI, if a Holder’s employment with, or status as a Director of, the Company or an
Affiliate shall terminate, and if, within ninety (90) days of such termination, such Holder shall become a Consultant, such Holder’s
rights with respect to any Award or portion thereof granted thereto prior to the date of such termination may be preserved, if
and to the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as if such Holder had been a Consultant for the entire period
during which such Award or portion thereof had been outstanding. Should the Committee effect such determination with respect to
such Holder, for all purposes of the Plan, such Holder shall not be treated as if his or her employment or Director status had
terminated until such time as his or her Consultant status shall terminate, in which case his or her Award, as it may have been
reduced in connection with the Holder’s becoming a Consultant, shall be treated pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2,
provided, however, that any such Award which is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall, upon the Holder’s no longer
being an Employee, automatically convert to a Non-qualified Stock Option. Should a Holder’s status as a Consultant terminate,
and if, within ninety (90) days of such termination, such Holder shall become an Employee or a Director, such Holder’s rights
with respect to any Award or portion thereof granted thereto prior to the date of such termination may be preserved, if and to
the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as if such Holder had been an Employee or a Director, as applicable,
for the entire period during which such Award or portion thereof had been outstanding, and, should the Committee effect such determination
with respect to such Holder, for all purposes of the Plan, such Holder shall not be treated as if his or her Consultant status
had terminated until such time as his or her employment with the Company or an Affiliate, or his or her Director status, as applicable,
shall terminate, in which case his or her Award shall be treated pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2.

6.4           Termination
of Service for Cause. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI or elsewhere in the Plan to the contrary, and unless
a Holder’s Award Agreement specifically provides otherwise, in the event of a Holder’s Termination of Service for Cause,
all of such Holder’s then outstanding Awards shall expire immediately and be forfeited in their entirety upon such Termination
of Service.


 


Article
VII

OPTIONS


 


7.1           Option
Period. The term of each Option shall be as specified in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that except
as set forth in Section 7.3, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date of its grant.


 


7.2           Limitations
on Exercise of Option. An Option shall be exercisable in whole or in such installments and at such times as specified in the
Option Agreement.


 


7.3           Special
Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the respective
Incentive Stock Option is granted) of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by
an individual during any calendar year under all plans of the Company and any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation thereof
(both as defined in Section 424 of the Code) which provide for the grant of Incentive Stock Options exceeds One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000) (or such other individual limit as may be in effect under the Code on the date of grant), the portion of such
Incentive Stock Options that exceeds such threshold shall be treated as Non-qualified Stock Options. The Committee shall determine,
in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code, Treasury Regulations and other administrative pronouncements, which of a
Holder’s Options, which were intended by the Committee to be Incentive Stock Options when granted to the Holder, will not
constitute Incentive Stock Options because of such limitation, and shall notify the Holder of such determination as soon as practicable
after such determination. No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to an Employee if, at the time the Incentive Stock Option
is granted, such Employee is a Ten Percent Shareholder, unless (i) at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted the Option
price is at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Incentive Stock Option,
and (ii) such Incentive Stock Option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant.
No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted more than ten (10) years from the earlier of the Effective Date or date on which the
Plan is approved by the Company’s shareholders. The designation by the Committee of an Option as an Incentive Stock Option
shall not guarantee the Holder that the Option will satisfy the applicable requirements for “incentive stock option”
status under Section 422 of the Code.

7.4           Option
Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement in such form and containing such provisions not inconsistent
with the other provisions of the Plan as the Committee from time to time shall approve, including, but not limited to, provisions
intended to qualify an Option as an Incentive Stock Option. An Option Agreement may provide for the payment of the Option price,
in whole or in part, by the delivery of a number of Shares (plus cash if necessary) that have been owned by the Holder for at least
six (6) months and having a Fair Market Value equal to such Option price, or such other forms or methods as the Committee may determine
from time to time, in each case, subject to such rules and regulations as may be adopted by the Committee. Each Option Agreement
shall, solely to the extent inconsistent with the provisions of Sections 6.2, 6.3, and 6.4, as applicable, specify the effect of
Termination of Service on the exercisability of the Option. Moreover, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Non-qualified
Stock Option Agreement may provide for a “cashless exercise” of the Option, in whole or in part, by (a) establishing
procedures whereby the Holder, by a properly-executed written notice, directs (i) an immediate market sale or margin loan
as to all or a part of Shares to which he is entitled to receive upon exercise of the Option, pursuant to an extension of credit
by the Company to the Holder of the Option price, (ii) the delivery of the Shares from the Company directly to a brokerage
firm and (iii) the delivery of the Option price from sale or margin loan proceeds from the brokerage firm directly to the
Company, or (b) reducing the number of Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option by the number of such Shares having
an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the Option price (or portion thereof to be so paid) as of the date of the Option’s
exercise. An Option Agreement may also include provisions relating to: (i) subject to the provisions hereof, accelerated vesting
of Options, including but not limited to, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, (ii) tax matters (including provisions covering
any applicable Employee wage withholding requirements and requiring additional “gross-up” payments to Holders to meet
any excise taxes or other additional income tax liability imposed as a result of a payment made upon a Change of Control resulting
from the operation of the Plan or of such Option Agreement) and (iii) any other matters not inconsistent with the terms and provisions
of the Plan that the Committee shall in its sole discretion determine. The terms and conditions of the respective Option Agreements
need not be identical.

7.5           Option
Price and Payment. The price at which an Share may be purchased upon exercise of an Option shall be determined by the Committee;
provided, however, that such Option price (i) shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of an Share on the
date such Option is granted (or 110% of Fair Market Value for an Incentive Stock Option held by Ten Percent Shareholder, as provided
in Section 7.3), and (ii) shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Article XV. The Option or portion thereof may be exercised
by delivery of an irrevocable notice of exercise to the Company. The Option price for the Option or portion thereof shall be paid
in full in the manner prescribed by the Committee as set forth in the Plan and the applicable Option Agreement, which manner, with
the consent of the Committee, may include the withholding of Shares otherwise issuable in connection with the exercise of the Option.
Separate share certificates shall be issued by the Company for those Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock
Option and for those Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a Non-qualified Stock Option.


 


7.6           Shareholder
Rights and Privileges. The Holder of an Option shall be entitled to all the privileges and rights of a shareholder of the Company
solely with respect to such Shares as have been purchased under the Option and for which share certificates have been registered
in the Holder’s name.


 


7.7           Options
and Rights in Substitution for Stock or Options Granted by Other Corporations. Options may be granted under the Plan from time
to time in substitution for stock options held by individuals employed by entities who become Employees, Directors or Consultants
as a result of a merger or consolidation of the employing entity with the Company or any Affiliate, or the acquisition by the Company
or an Affiliate of the assets of the employing entity, or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of stock or shares of
the employing entity with the result that such employing entity becomes an Affiliate.


 


7.8           Prohibition
Against Re-Pricing. Except to the extent (i) approved in advance by holders of a majority of the shares of the Company
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, or (ii) as a result of any Change of Control or any adjustment as
provided in Article XV, the Committee shall not have the power or authority to reduce, whether through amendment or otherwise,
the exercise price under any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or to grant any new Award or make any payment of cash
in substitution for or upon the cancellation of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights previously granted.


 


Article
VIII

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS


 


8.1           Award.
A Restricted Stock Award shall constitute an Award of Shares to the Holder as of the date of the Award which are subject to a “substantial
risk of forfeiture” as defined under Section 83 of the Code during the specified Restriction Period. At the time a Restricted
Stock Award is made, the Committee shall establish the Restriction Period applicable to such Award. Each Restricted Stock Award
may have a different Restriction Period, in the discretion of the Committee. The Restriction Period applicable to a particular
Restricted Stock Award shall not be changed except as permitted by Section 8.2.

8.2           Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article VIII, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Restricted
Stock Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to
be appropriate. Shares awarded pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award shall be represented by a share certificate registered in the
name of the Holder of such Restricted Stock Award, and registered in the register of members of the Company. If provided for under
the Restricted Stock Agreement, the Holder shall have the right to vote Shares subject thereto and to enjoy all other shareholder
rights, including the entitlement to receive dividends on the Shares during the Restriction Period, except that (i) the Holder
shall not be entitled to delivery of the share certificate until the Restriction Period shall have expired, (ii) the Company
shall retain custody of the share certificate during the Restriction Period (with a share power endorsed by the Holder in blank),
(iii) the Holder may not sell, transfer, pledge, exchange, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Shares during the Restriction
Period and (iv) a breach of the terms and conditions established by the Committee pursuant to the Restricted Stock Agreement shall
cause a forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Award. At the time of such Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe
additional terms and conditions or restrictions relating to Restricted Stock Awards, including, but not limited to, rules pertaining
to the effect of Termination of Service prior to expiration of the Restriction Period. Such additional terms, conditions or restrictions
shall, to the extent inconsistent with the provisions of Sections 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4, as applicable, be set forth in a Restricted
Stock Agreement made in conjunction with the Award. Such Restricted Stock Agreement may also include provisions relating to: (i) subject
to the provisions hereof, accelerated vesting of Awards, including but not limited to accelerated vesting upon the occurrence of
a Change of Control, (ii) tax matters (including provisions covering any applicable Employee wage withholding requirements
and requiring additional “gross-up” payments to Holders to meet any excise taxes or other additional income tax liability
imposed as a result of a payment made in connection with a Change of Control resulting from the operation of the Plan or of such
Restricted Stock Agreement) and (iii) any other matters not inconsistent with the terms and provisions of the Plan that the
Committee shall in its sole discretion determine. The terms and conditions of the respective Restricted Stock Agreements need not
be identical. All Shares delivered to a Holder as part of a Restricted Stock Award shall be delivered and reported by the Company
or the Affiliate, as applicable, to the Holder at the time of vesting.


 


8.3           Payment
for Restricted Stock. The Committee shall determine the amount and form of any payment from a Holder for Shares received pursuant
to a Restricted Stock Award, if any, provided that in the absence of such a determination, a Holder shall not be required to make
any payment for Shares received pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award, except to the extent otherwise required by law.


 


Article
IX

UNRESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS


 


9.1           Award.
Shares may be awarded (or sold) to Employees, Directors or Consultants under the Plan which are not subject to Restrictions of
any kind, in consideration for past services rendered thereby to the Company or an Affiliate or for other valid consideration.

9.2           Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article IX, the Company and the Holder shall enter into an Unrestricted
Stock Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated hereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to

for Unrestricted Stock. The Committee shall determine the amount and form of any payment from a Holder for Shares received

Article
X

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARDS


 


10.1         Award.
A Restricted Stock Unit Award shall constitute a promise to grant Shares (or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of Shares) to
the Holder at the end of a specified Restriction Period. At the time a Restricted Stock Unit Award is made, the Committee shall
establish the Restriction Period applicable to such Award. Each Restricted Stock Unit Award may have a different Restriction Period,
in the discretion of the Committee. A Restricted Stock Unit shall not constitute an equity interest in the Company and shall not
entitle the Holder to voting rights, dividends or any other rights associated with ownership of Shares prior to the time the Holder
shall receive a distribution of Shares pursuant to Section 10.3.


 


10.2         Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article X, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Restricted
Stock Unit Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine
to be appropriate. The Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall set forth the individual service-based vesting requirement which the
Holder would be required to satisfy before the Holder would become entitled to distribution pursuant to Section 10.3 and the number
of Units awarded to the Holder. Such conditions shall be sufficient to constitute a “substantial risk of forfeiture”
as such term is defined under Section 409A of the Code. At the time of such Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe
additional terms and conditions or restrictions relating to Restricted Stock Unit Awards in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement,
including, but not limited to, rules pertaining to the effect of Termination of Service prior to expiration of the applicable vesting
period. The terms and conditions of the respective Restricted Stock Unit Agreements need not be identical.


 


10.3         Distributions
of Shares. The Holder of a Restricted Stock Unit shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value
of an Share, or one Share, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee and as set forth in the Restricted Stock Unit
Agreement, for each Restricted Stock Unit subject to such Restricted Stock Unit Award, if the Holder satisfies the applicable vesting
requirement. Such distribution shall be made no later than by the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd)
calendar month next following the end of the calendar year in which the Restricted Stock Unit first becomes vested (i.e., no longer
subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture”).

(and/or Affiliate) Performance Goals based on selected Performance Criteria, a cash payment shall be made to the Holder, based
on the number of Units awarded to the Holder. At the time a Performance Unit Award is made, the Committee shall establish the Performance

be appropriate. The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Performance Unit Agreement the Performance Period, Performance
Criteria and Performance Goals which the Holder and/or the Company would be required to satisfy before the Holder would become

At the time of such Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe additional terms and conditions or restrictions
relating to Performance Unit Awards, including, but not limited to, rules pertaining to the effect of Termination of Service prior
to expiration of the applicable performance period. The terms and conditions of the respective Performance Unit Agreements need
not be identical.


 


11.3         Payments.
The Holder of a Performance Unit shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the dollar value assigned to such Unit under
the applicable Performance Unit Agreement if the Holder and/or the Company satisfy (or partially satisfy, if applicable under the
applicable Performance Unit Agreement) the Performance Goals set forth in such Performance Unit Agreement. If necessary to satisfy
the requirements of Code Section 162(m), if applicable, the achievement of such Performance Goals shall be certified in writing
by the Committee prior to any payment. All payments shall be made no later than by the fifteenth (15th) day of the third
(3rd) calendar month next following the end of the Company’s fiscal year to which such performance goals and objectives

12.1         Award.
A Performance Stock Award shall constitute a promise to grant Shares (or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of Shares) to the
Holder at the end of a specified Performance Period subject to achievement of specified Performance Goals. At the time a Performance
Stock Award is made, the Committee shall establish the Performance Period and applicable Performance Goals based on selected Performance
Criteria. Each Performance Stock Award may have different Performance Goals, in the discretion of the Committee. A Performance
Stock Award shall not constitute an equity interest in the Company and shall not entitle the Holder to voting rights, dividends
or any other rights associated with ownership of Shares unless and until the Holder shall receive a distribution of Shares pursuant
to Section 11.3.


 


12.2         Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article XII, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Performance
Stock Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to

Criteria and Performance Goals which the Holder and/or the Company would be required to satisfy before the Holder would become
entitled to the receipt of Shares pursuant to such Holder’s Performance Stock Award and the number of Shares subject to such
Performance Stock Award. Such distribution shall be subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” under Section 409A
of the Code. If such Performance Goals are achieved, the distribution of Shares (or the payment of cash, as determined in the sole
discretion of the Committee), shall be made no later than by the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd)
calendar month next following the end of the Company’s fiscal year to which such goals and objectives relate. At the time
of such Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe additional terms and conditions or restrictions relating to

prior to the expiration of the applicable performance period. The terms and conditions of the respective Performance Stock Agreements
need not be identical.


 


12.3         Distributions
of Shares. The Holder of a Performance Stock Award shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value
of a Share, or one Share, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, for each Performance Stock Award subject to such
Performance Stock Agreement, if the Holder satisfies the applicable vesting requirement. If necessary to satisfy the requirements
of Code Section 162(m), if applicable, the achievement of such Performance Goals shall be certified in writing by the Committee

    Fincera Inc. 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan


    

 


13.2         Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article XIII, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Distribution
Equivalent Rights Award Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee
may determine to be appropriate. The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Distribution Equivalent Rights Award Agreement
the terms and conditions, if any, including whether the Holder is to receive credits currently in cash, is to have such credits
reinvested (at Fair Market Value determined as of the date of reinvestment) in additional Shares or is to be entitled to choose
among such alternatives. Such receipt shall be subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” under Section 409A of
the Code and, if such Award becomes vested, the distribution of such cash or Shares shall be made no later than by the fifteenth
(15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month next following the end of the Company’s fiscal year in
which the Holder’s interest in the Award vests. Distribution Equivalent Rights Awards may be settled in cash or in Shares,
as set forth in the applicable Distribution Equivalent Rights Award Agreement. A Distribution Equivalent Rights Award may, but
need not be, awarded in tandem with another Award (other than an Option or a SAR), whereby, if so awarded, such Distribution Equivalent
Rights Award shall expire, terminate or be forfeited by the Holder, as applicable, under the same conditions as under such other
Award.


 


13.3         Interest
Equivalents. The Distribution Equivalent Rights Award Agreement for a Distribution Equivalent Rights Award may provide for

fiscal year in which such interest is credited and vested), at a rate set forth in the applicable Distribution Equivalent Rights
Award Agreement, on the amount of cash payable thereunder.


 


Article

STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS


 


14.1         Award.
A Stock Appreciation Right shall constitute a right, granted alone or in connection with a related Option, to receive a payment
equal to the increase in value of a specified number of Shares between the date of Award and the date of exercise.


 


14.2         Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article XIV, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Stock Appreciation
Right Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to
be appropriate. The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Stock Appreciation Right Agreement the terms and conditions of
the Stock Appreciation Right, including (i) the base value (the “Base Value”) for the Stock Appreciation Right,
which shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of an Share on the date of grant of the Stock Appreciation Right, (ii) the number
of Shares subject to the Stock Appreciation Right, (iii) the period during which the Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised;
provided, however, that no Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from
the date of its grant, and (iv) any other special rules and/or requirements which the Committee imposes upon the Stock Appreciation
Right. Upon the exercise of some or all of the portion of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Holder shall receive a payment from the
Company, in cash or in the form of Shares having an equivalent Fair Market Value or in a combination of both, as determined in
the sole discretion of the Committee, equal to the product of:


 




    	 	18	 



    Fincera Inc. 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan


    

 


(a)          The
excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of an Share on the date of exercise, over (ii) the Base Value, multiplied by,


 


(b)          The
number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised.


 


14.3         Tandem
Stock Appreciation Rights. If the Committee grants a Stock Appreciation Right which is intended to be a Tandem Stock Appreciation
Right, the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall be granted at the same time as the related Option, and the following special rules
shall apply:


 


(a)          The
Base Value shall be equal to or greater than the per Share exercise price under the related Option;


 


(b)          The
Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised for all or part of the Shares which are subject to the related Option, but solely
upon the surrender by the Holder of the Holder’s right to exercise the equivalent portion of the related Option (and when
a Share is purchased under the related Option, an equivalent portion of the related Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall be canceled);


 


(c)          The
Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall expire no later than the date of the expiration of the related Option;


 


(d)          The
value of the payment with respect to the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be no more than one hundred percent (100%) of the
difference between the per Share exercise price under the related Option and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the
related Option at the time the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, multiplied by the number of the Shares with respect
to which the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right is exercised; and


 


(e)          The
Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised solely when the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the related Option
exceeds the per Share exercise price under the related Option.

Article
XV

RECAPITALIZATION OR REORGANIZATION


 


15.1         Adjustments
to Shares. The shares with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan are Shares as presently constituted; provided,
however, that if, and whenever, prior to the expiration or distribution to the Holder of Shares underlying an Award theretofore
granted, the Company shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of the Shares or the payment of a Share dividend or capitalization
on Shares without receipt of consideration by the Company, the number of Shares with respect to which such Award may thereafter
be exercised or satisfied, as applicable, (i) in the event of an increase in the number of outstanding Shares, shall be proportionately
increased, and the purchase price per Share shall be proportionately reduced, and (ii) in the event of a reduction in the
number of outstanding Shares, shall be proportionately reduced, and the purchase price per Share shall be proportionately increased.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Article XV, any adjustment made with respect to an Award (x) which
is an Incentive Stock Option, shall comply with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code, and in no event shall any adjustment
be made which would render any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan to be other than an “incentive stock option”
for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, and (y) which is a Non-qualified Stock Option, shall comply with the requirements of Section
409A of the Code, and in no event shall any adjustment be made which would render any Non-qualified Stock Option granted under
the Plan to become subject to Section 409A of the Code.


 


15.2         Recapitalization.
If the Company recapitalizes or otherwise changes its capital structure, thereafter upon any exercise or satisfaction, as applicable,
of a previously granted Award, the Holder shall be entitled to receive (or entitled to purchase, if applicable) under such Award,
in lieu of the number of Shares then covered by such Award, the number and class of shares and securities to which the Holder would
have been entitled pursuant to the terms of the recapitalization if, immediately prior to such recapitalization, the Holder had
been the holder of record of the number of Shares then covered by such Award.


 


15.3         Other
Events. In the event of changes to the outstanding Shares by reason of an extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization,
merger, consolidation, combination, split-up, spin-off, exchange or other relevant change in capitalization occurring after the
date of the grant of any Award and not otherwise provided for under this Article XV, and subject to applicable law, any outstanding
Awards and any Award Agreements evidencing such Awards shall be adjusted by the Board in its discretion in such manner as the Board
shall deem equitable or appropriate taking into consideration the applicable accounting and tax consequences, as to the number
and price of Shares or other consideration subject to such Awards. In the event of any adjustment pursuant to Sections 15.1, 15.2
or this Section 15.3, the aggregate number of Shares available under the Plan pursuant to Section 5.1 (and the Code Section 162(m)
limit set forth therein) may be appropriately adjusted by the Board, the determination of which shall be conclusive. In addition,
the Committee may make provision for a cash payment to a Holder or a person who has an outstanding Award. In the event of a Change
of Control, the Committee may cause any Award either (i) to be canceled in consideration of a payment in cash or other consideration
in amount per share equal to the excess, if any, of the price or implied price per Share in the Change of Control over the per
Share exercise, base or purchase price of such Award, which may be paid immediately or over the vesting schedule of the Award;
or (ii) to be assumed or a substantially equivalent Award be substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary
of such successor corporation. The number of Shares subject to any Award shall be rounded to the nearest whole number.

15.4         Powers
Not Affected. The existence of the Plan and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or power of
the Board or of the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other
change of the Company’s capital structure or business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of debt or equity
securities ahead of or affecting Shares or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale, lease,
exchange or other disposition of all or any part of its assets or business or any other corporate act or proceeding.


 


15.5         No
Adjustment for Certain Awards. Except as hereinabove expressly provided, the issuance by the Company of shares of any class
or securities convertible into shares of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale, upon the exercise
of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares
or other securities, and in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect previously granted Awards, and no adjustment
by reason thereof shall be made with respect to the number of Shares subject to Awards theretofore granted or the purchase price
per Share, if applicable.


 


Article
XVI

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN


 


The Plan shall continue in effect, unless
sooner terminated pursuant to this Article XVI, until the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date on which it is adopted
by the Board (except as to Awards outstanding on that date). The Board in its discretion may terminate the Plan at any time with
respect to any shares for which Awards have not theretofore been granted; provided, however, that the Plan’s
termination shall not materially and adversely impair the rights of a Holder with respect to any Award theretofore granted without
the consent of the Holder. The Board shall have the right to alter or amend the Plan or any part hereof from time to time; provided,
however, that without the approval by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders at which a quorum representing
a majority of the shares of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is present in person or by proxy,
no amendment or modification of the Plan may (i) materially increase the benefits accruing to Holders, (ii) except as
otherwise expressly provided in Article XV, materially increase the number of Shares subject to the Plan or the individual Award
Agreements specified in Article V, (iii) materially modify the requirements for participation in the Plan, or (iv) amend,
modify or suspend Section 7.7 (re-pricing prohibitions) or this Article XVI. In addition, no change in any Award theretofore granted
may be made which would materially and adversely impair the rights of a Holder with respect to such Award without the consent of
the Holder (unless such change is required in order to cause the benefits under the Plan to qualify as “performance-based”
compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code or to exempt the Plan or any Award from Section 409A of the Code).


 


Article
XVII

MISCELLANEOUS


 


17.1         No

to give an Employee, Director or Consultant any right to an Award except as may be evidenced by an Award Agreement duly executed
on behalf of the Company, and then solely to the extent and on the terms and conditions expressly set forth therein.

17.2         No
Rights Conferred. Nothing contained in the Plan shall (i) confer upon any Employee any right with respect to continuation
of employment with the Company or any Affiliate, (ii) interfere in any way with any right of the Company or any Affiliate
to terminate the employment of an Employee at any time, (iii) confer upon any Director any right with respect to continuation
of such Director’s membership on the Board, (iv) interfere in any way with any right of the Company or an Affiliate
to terminate a Director’s membership on the Board at any time, (v) confer upon any Consultant any right with respect
to continuation of his or her consulting engagement with the Company or any Affiliate, or (vi) interfere in any way with any
right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate a Consultant’s consulting engagement with the Company or an Affiliate at
any time.


 


17.3         Other
Laws; No Fractional Shares; Withholding. The Company shall not be obligated by virtue of any provision of the Plan to recognize
the exercise of any Award or to otherwise sell or issue Shares in violation of any laws, rules or regulations, and any postponement
of the exercise or settlement of any Award under this provision shall not extend the term of such Award. Neither the Company nor
its directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability to a Holder with respect to any Award (or Shares issuable thereunder)
(i) that shall lapse because of such postponement, or (ii) for any failure to comply with the requirements of any applicable
law, rules or regulations, including but not limited to any failure to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of this Code.
No fractional Shares shall be delivered, nor shall any cash in lieu of fractional Shares be paid. The Company shall have the right
to deduct in cash (whether under this Plan or otherwise) in connection with all Awards any taxes required by law to be withheld
and to require any payments required to enable it to satisfy its withholding obligations. In the case of any Award satisfied in
the form of Shares, no Shares shall be issued unless and until arrangements satisfactory to the Company shall have been made to
satisfy any tax withholding obligations applicable with respect to such Award. Subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee
may impose, the Company shall have the right to retain, or the Committee may, subject to such terms and conditions as it may establish
from time to time, permit Holders to elect to tender, Shares (including Shares issuable in respect of an Award) to satisfy, in
whole or in part, the amount required to be withheld.


 


17.4         No
Restriction on Corporate Action. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company or any Affiliate from
taking any corporate action which is deemed by the Company or such Affiliate to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether
or not such action would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any Award made under the Plan. No Employee, Director, Consultant,
beneficiary or other person shall have any claim against the Company or any Affiliate as a result of any such action.

17.5         Restrictions
on Transfer. No Award under the Plan or any Award Agreement and no rights or interests herein or therein, shall or may be assigned,
transferred, sold, exchanged, encumbered, pledged or otherwise hypothecated or disposed of by a Holder except (i) by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution, or (ii) where permitted under applicable tax rules, by gift to any Family Member
of the Holder, subject to compliance with applicable laws. An Award may be exercisable during the lifetime of the Holder only by
such Holder or by the Holder’s guardian or legal representative unless it has been transferred by gift to a Family Member
of the Holder, in which case it shall be exercisable solely by such transferee. Notwithstanding any such transfer, the Holder shall
continue to be subject to the withholding requirements provided for under Section 17.3 hereof.


 


17.6         Beneficiary
Designations. Each Holder may, from time to time, name a beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be contingent or successive
beneficiaries) for purposes of receiving any amount which is payable in connection with an Award under the Plan upon or subsequent
to the Holder’s death. Each such beneficiary designation shall serve to revoke all prior beneficiary designations, be in
a form prescribed by the Company and be effective solely when filed by the Holder in writing with the Company during the Holder’s
lifetime. In the absence of any such written beneficiary designation, for purposes of the Plan, a Holder’s beneficiary shall
be the Holder’s estate.


 


17.7         Rule
16b-3. It is intended that the Plan and any Award made to a person subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall meet all
of the requirements of Rule 16b-3. If any provision of the Plan or of any such Award would disqualify the Plan or such Award
under, or would otherwise not comply with the requirements of, Rule 16b-3, such provision or Award shall be construed or deemed
to have been amended as necessary to conform to the requirements of Rule 16b-3.

17.8         Section
162(m). The following conditions shall apply if it is intended that the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code be satisfied
such that Awards under the Plan which are made to Holders who are “covered employees” (as defined in Section 162(m)
of the Code) shall constitute “performance-based” compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code: Any
Performance Goal(s) applicable to Qualified Performance-Based Awards shall be objective, shall be established not later than ninety
(90) days after the beginning of any applicable Performance Period (or at such other date as may be required or permitted for “performance-based”
compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code) and shall otherwise meet the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code, including
the requirement that the outcome of the Performance Goal or Goals be substantially uncertain (as defined in the regulations under
Section 162(m) of the Code) at the time established. The Performance Criteria to be utilized under the Plan to establish Performance
Goals shall consist of objective tests based on one or more of the following: earnings or earnings per share, cash flow or cash
flow per share, operating cash flow or operating cash flow per share revenue growth, product revenue growth, financial return ratios
(such as return on equity, return on investment and/or return on assets), share price performance, shareholder return, equity and/or
value, operating income, operating margins, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, earnings, pre- or post-tax
income, economic value added (or an equivalent metric), profit returns and margins, credit quality, sales growth, market share,
working capital levels, comparisons with various share market indices, year-end cash, debt reduction, assets under management,
operating efficiencies, strategic partnerships or transactions (including co-development, co-marketing, profit sharing, joint venture
or other similar arrangements), and/or financing and other capital raising transaction. Performance criteria may be established
on a Company-wide basis or with respect to one or more Company business units or divisions or subsidiaries; and either in absolute
terms, relative to the performance of one or more similarly situated companies, or relative to the performance of an index covering
a peer group of companies. When establishing Performance Goals for the applicable Performance Period, the Committee may exclude
any or all “extraordinary items” as determined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles including, without
limitation, the charges or costs associated with restructurings of the Company, discontinued operations, other unusual or non-recurring
items, and the cumulative effects of accounting changes, and as identified in the Company’s financial statements, notes to
the Company’s financial statements or management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations
contained in the Company’s most recent annual report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the
Exchange Act. Holders who are “covered employees” (as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code) shall be eligible
to receive payment under a Qualified Performance-Based Award which is subject to achievement of a Performance Goal or Goals only
if the applicable Performance Goal or Goals are achieved within the applicable Performance Period, as determined by the Committee.
If any provision of the Plan would disqualify the Plan or would not otherwise permit the Plan to comply with Section 162(m)
of the Code as so intended, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the requirements or provisions of
Section 162(m) of the Code. The Committee may postpone the exercising of Awards, the issuance or delivery of Shares under any Award
or any action permitted under the Plan to prevent the Company or any subsidiary from being denied a federal income tax deduction,
provided that such deferral satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of the requirements of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.162-27(e)(4)(i), the maximum aggregate amount that may be paid in cash during any calendar year to any
one person (measured from the date of any payment) with respect to one or more Awards payable in cash shall be One Million Dollars
($1,000,000).


 


17.9         Clawback
Policy. Notwithstanding any contained herein or in any incentive “performance based” Awards under the Plan shall
be subject to reduction, forfeiture or repayment by reason of a correction or restatement of the Company’s financial information
if and to the extent such reduction or repayment is required by any applicable law.


 


17.10        Section
409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Committee shall have no authority to issue an Award under the Plan
with terms and/or conditions which would cause such Award to constitute non-qualified “deferred compensation” under
Section 409A of the Code unless such Award shall be structured to be exempt from or comply with all requirements of Code Section
409A. The Plan and all Award Agreements are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or to be
exempt therefrom) and shall be so interpreted and construed and no amount shall be paid or distributed from the Plan unless and
until such payment complies with all requirements of Code Section 409A. It is the intent of the Company that the provisions of
this Agreement and all other plans and programs sponsored by the Company be interpreted to comply in all respects with Code Section
409A, however, the Company shall have no liability to the Holder, or any successor or beneficiary thereof, in the event taxes,
penalties or excise taxes may ultimately be determined to be applicable to any payment or benefit received by the Holder or any
successor or beneficiary thereof.

17.11         Indemnification.
Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee or of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company
against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred thereby in connection with
or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which such person may be made a party or may be involved by reason
of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid thereby in settlement thereof,
with the Company’s approval, or paid thereby in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding against
such person; provided, however, that such person shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle
and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification
shall not be exclusive and shall be independent of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under
the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or By-laws, by contract, as a matter of law, or otherwise.


 


17.12         Other
Benefit Plans. No Award, payment or amount received hereunder shall be taken into account in computing an Employee’s
salary or compensation for the purposes of determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, life insurance or other benefit
plan of the Company or any Affiliate, unless such other plan specifically provides for the inclusion of such Award, payment or
amount received. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company to establish other plans or to pay compensation
to its employees, in cash or property, in a manner which is not expressly authorized under the Plan.


 


17.13         Limits
of Liability. Any liability of the Company with respect to an Award shall be based solely upon the contractual obligations
created under the Plan and the Award Agreement. None of the Company, any member of the Board nor any member of the Committee shall
have any liability to any party for any action taken or not taken, in good faith, in connection with or under the Plan.


 


17.14         Governing
Law. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Plan shall be construed in accordance with the laws of New York, without regard
to principles of conflicts of law.


 


17.15         Severability
of Provisions. If any provision of the Plan is held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not
affect any other provision of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such invalid or unenforceable provision
had not been included in the Plan.


 


17.16         No
Funding. The Plan shall be unfunded. The Company shall not be required to establish any special or separate fund or to make
any other segregation of funds or assets to ensure the payment of any Award. Prior to receipt of Shares or a cash distribution
pursuant to the terms of an Award, such Award shall represent an unfunded unsecured contractual obligation of the Company and the
Holder shall have no greater claim to the Shares underlying such Award or any other assets of the Company or Affiliate than any
other unsecured general creditor.


 


17.17         Headings.
Headings used throughout the Plan are for convenience only and shall not be given legal significance.
