To
encourage your continued service as __________ of Flux Power Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) or its subsidiary, you have been
granted this Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Award”) pursuant to the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive
Plan (the “Plan”). The Award represents the right to receive shares of common stock (the “Shares”), par value
$0.001 per share, of the Company subject to the fulfillment of the vesting conditions set forth in this agreement (this “Agreement”).


 


The
terms of the Award are as set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan. The Plan is incorporated into this Agreement by reference, which
means that this Agreement is limited by and subject to the express terms and provisions of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between
the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control. Capitalized terms that are not defined in
this Agreement have the meanings given to them in the Plan. The most important terms of the Award are summarized as follows:


 


1.
Award Date:



 


2.
Number of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs’) Subject to this Award:



 


Maximum:
______ (“Maximum RSUs”)


 


Target:

3.
RSUs Performance Target: The EBITDAS (as defined below) for the second half of the fiscal year from January 1, 2022 and ending
June 30, 2022 (“Target Period”) is $_______ (“Performance Target”). For the purpose of this Agreement
“EBITDAS” shall mean earnings before interest expense (excluding interest income), taxes, depreciation, amortization and
stock compensation expense in accordance with U.S. GAAP.


 


4.
Vesting Date: ________ (“Vesting Date”).


 


5.
Vesting. The Target RSUs will vest at the end of Vesting Date if the Performance Target is achieved by the Company for the Target
Period. Maximum RSUs will vest at the end of Vesting Date if the Company achieves positive EBITDAS for the Target Period (“Positive
EBITDAS”). If the Performance Target is not achieved by the Company for the Target Period, then no RSUs shall vest and this Award
shall be immediately cancelled.


 


6.
Termination due to Death, Disability or Retirement. If Termination of your employment by reason of your death, Disability, or
your Retirement occurs (i) after the Target Period, and (ii) the Performance Target or Positive EBITDAS has been achieved by the Company,
then the Target RSUs or Maximum RSUs, respectfully, shall immediately vest upon such Termination. However, if the Termination of your
employment by reason of your death, Disability, or your Retirement occurs (a) on or before the end of the Target Period, and/or (b) the
Performance Target or Positive EBITDAS has not been achieved, then no RSUs shall vest and this Award shall be immediately cancelled.
For the purpose of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean the voluntary Termination by a Participant when such Participant’s
age plus years of service with the Company equals or exceeds seventy five (75).

7.
Conversion of Restricted Stock Units and Issuance of Shares. Upon the Company’s determination of the number of restricted
stock units vesting following the Vesting Date, each restricted stock unit that vests on such Vesting Date, shall be converted into one
Share and thereafter, the Company will transfer such Shares to you upon satisfaction of any required tax withholding obligations. No
fractional shares shall be issued under this Agreement.


 


8.
Termination of Service. All restricted stock units that have not vested pursuant to the terms of this Award will terminate automatically
and be forfeited to the Company immediately and without further notice upon termination of your service to the Company for any reason
(except as a result of death, Disability, or Retirement). No Shares shall be issued or issuable with respect to any portion of the Award
that terminates unvested and is forfeited.


 


9.
Right to Shares. You shall not have any right in, to or with respect to any of the Shares (including any voting rights or rights
with respect to dividends paid on the Shares) issuable under the Award until the Award is settled by the issuance of such Shares to you.


 


10.
Withholding of Taxes.


 


(a)
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no Shares will be issued to you, unless and until satisfactory arrangements
(as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by you with respect to the payment of income (including federal, state, foreign
and local taxes), employment, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account and other taxes which the Company determines must be
withheld with respect to such Shares so issuable (the “Withholding Taxes”). You acknowledge that the ultimate liability for
all Withholding Taxes legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company (i) makes no representations or undertakings
regarding the treatment of any Withholding Taxes in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant of the Award, the vesting
of Award, the settlement of the Award in Shares or the receipt of an equivalent cash payment, the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired
at vesting and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award
to reduce or eliminate your liability for Withholding Taxes.


 


(b)
To satisfy the Withholding Taxes, the Company may withhold otherwise deliverable Shares upon vesting of the Award, according to the vesting
schedule, having a Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld for the payment of
the Withholding Taxes pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may specify from time to time. The Company will not retain fractional
Shares to satisfy any portion of the Withholding Taxes. If the Administrator determines that the withholding of whole Shares results
in an over-withholding to meet the minimum tax withholding requirements, a reimbursement will be made to you as soon as administratively
possible.


 


(c)
If the Company does not withhold the Shares as described above, prior to the issuance of Shares upon vesting of the Award or the receipt
of an equivalent cash payment, you shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company (in its sole discretion) to satisfy
all withholding and payment on account obligations of the Company. In this regard, you authorize the Company to withhold all applicable
Withholding Taxes legally payable by you from your wages or other cash compensation payable to you by the Company or from any equivalent
cash payment received upon vesting of the Award. Alternatively, or in addition, if permissible under local and applicable law, you may
instruct and authorize the Administrator to pay Withholding Taxes, in whole or in part, by one of the additional following alternatives:


 


(i)
You providing irrevocable instructions to a Company-designated broker to deliver cash to the Company from your previously established
account with such broker equal to the Withholding Taxes; or


 




    	2



     


    

 


(ii)
You providing irrevocable instructions to a Company-designated broker to sell a sufficient number of Shares otherwise deliverable to
you having a Fair Market Value equal to the Withholding Taxes provided that such sale does not violate Company policy or Applicable Laws.


 


(d)
The Company may refuse to issue any Shares to you until you satisfy your Withholding Taxes. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the
Company has the right to retain without notice from Shares issuable under the Award or from salary payable to you, Shares or cash having
a value sufficient to satisfy the Withholding Taxes.


 


11.
Restricted Shares. The Company will not be obligated to issue any Shares with respect to this Award unless such Shares are at
that time effectively registered or exempt from registration under federal securities laws and the offer and sale of the Shares are otherwise
in compliance with all applicable state securities laws.


 


12.
Limitation on Rights; No Right to Future Grants; Extraordinary Item. By entering into this Agreement and accepting the Award,
you acknowledge that: (a) the Plan is discretionary and may be modified, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time as provided
in the Plan; (b) the grant of the Award is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants
of awards or benefits in lieu of awards; (c) all determinations with respect to any such future grants, including, but not limited to,
the times when awards will be granted, the number of shares subject to each award, the award price, if any, and the time or times when
each award will be settled, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; (d) your participation in the Plan is voluntary; (e) the value
of the Award is an extraordinary item which is outside the scope of your service contract, if any; (f) the Award is not part of normal
or expected compensation for any purpose, including without limitation for calculating any benefits, severance, resignation, termination,
redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments; (g) the future
value of the Shares subject to the Award is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty, (h) neither the Plan, the Award nor the issuance
of the Shares confers upon you any right to continue in the service of (or any other relationship with) the Company, and (i) the grant
of the Award will not be interpreted to form an employment relationship with the Company.


 


13.
Compliance With Section 409A Of The Code. This Award is intended to be exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code (the “Code”), including but not limited to by reason of complying with the “short-term deferral”
rule set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted accordingly. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if it is determined that the Award fails to satisfy the requirements of the short-term deferral rule and is otherwise
not exempt from, and determined to be deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, this Award shall comply with Section
409A to the extent necessary to avoid adverse personal tax consequences and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted accordingly.
If it is determined that the Award is deferred compensation subject to Section 409A and you are a “Specified Employee” (within
the meaning set forth in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) as of the date of your “Separation from Service” (as defined
in Section 409A), then the issuance of any shares that would otherwise be made upon the date of your Separation from Service or within
the first six (6) months thereafter will not be made on the originally scheduled date(s) and will instead be issued in a lump sum on
the date that is six (6) months and one day after the date of the Separation from Service, with the balance of the shares issued thereafter
in accordance with the original vesting and issuance schedule set forth above, but if and only if such delay in the issuance of the shares
is necessary to avoid the imposition of adverse taxation on you in respect of the shares under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment
of shares that vests is intended to constitute a “separate payment” for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).
