SHARES SUBJECT TO PLAN AND LIMITATIONS THEREON





Section 1.1.  Shares Grant and Award Limits. The Committee may from time to time grant Awards to one or more Employees, Directors and/or
Consultants determined by it to be eligible for participation in the Plan in accordance with the provisions of Article VI. Subject
to Article XIV, the aggregate number of Common Shares (including Common Shares underlying Options designated as Incentive Share Options
or Non-Qualified Share Options) that may be issued under the Plan shall not exceed the sum of (i) five million four hundred fifty
thousand (5,450,000) Common Shares plus (ii) an annual increase on the first day of each calendar year beginning January 1, 2023 and ending
on and including January 1, 2031 equal to the lesser of (A) five percent (5%) of the Common Shares outstanding on the final day of the
immediately preceding calendar year, and (B) such smaller number of Common Shares as determined by the Board. Additionally, the aggregate
number of Common Shares (including Common Shares underlying Options designated as Incentive Share Options or Non-Qualified Share Options)
that may be issued under the Plan to persons who are not Directors shall not exceed the sum of (i) four million seven hundred seventy
thousand (4,770,000) Common Shares plus (ii) an annual increase on the first day of each calendar year beginning January 1, 2023 and ending
on and including January 1, 2031 equal to the lesser of (A) five percent (5%) of the Common Shares outstanding on the final day of the
immediately preceding calendar year, and (B) such smaller number of Common Shares as determined by the Board. The Common Stock shall be
deemed to have been issued under the Plan solely to the extent actually issued and delivered pursuant to an Award. To the extent that
an Award lapses, expires, is canceled, is terminated unexercised or ceases to be exercisable for any reason, or the rights of its Holder
terminate, any Common Stock subject to such Award shall again be available for the grant of a new Award. Any Common Shares issued hereunder
may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Common Shares or treasury Common Shares. Any Common Shares issued by the
Company through the assumption or substitution of outstanding grants in connection with the acquisition of another entity shall not reduce
the maximum number of Common Shares available for delivery under the Plan.




 






    -6-


     


    

 


Section
5.2.Existing Plan. On and after stockholder approval of this Plan, no awards shall be granted under the Existing Plan, but
all outstanding awards previously granted under the Existing Plan shall remain outstanding and subject to the Existing Plan’s terms.
However, to the extent that an award under the Existing Plan lapses, expires, is canceled, is terminated unexercised or ceases to be
exercisable for any reason, or the rights of its holder terminate, any Common Shares subject to such award shall again be available for
the grant of a new Award under this Plan.


 


Section
5.3.Common Stock Offered. The Common Stock to be offered pursuant to the grant of an Award may be authorized but unissued
Common Stock or Common Stock previously issued and outstanding and reacquired by the Company.


 


Section
5.4.Limitations on Awards for Directors. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Plan, the sum of the grant date
fair value of equity-based Awards (such value computed as of the date of grant in accordance with applicable financial accounting rules)
and the amount of any cash-based compensation granted to a non-employee Director during any calendar year shall not exceed Two Hundred
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000). The independent members of the Board may make exceptions to this limit, provided that the non-employee
Director receiving such additional compensation may not participate in the decision to award such compensation


 


Section
5.5.Effect of the Expiration of Termination Awards. If and to the extent that an Option expires, terminates or is canceled
or forfeited for any reason without having been exercised in full, the Shares associated with that Option will again become available
for grant under the Plan. Similarly, if and to the extent an Award of Restricted Stock is canceled or forfeited for any reason, the Shares
subject to that Award will again become available for grant under the Plan. Shares withheld in settlement of a tax withholding obligation
associated with an Award, or in satisfaction of the exercise price payable upon exercise of an Option, will not become available for
grant under the Plan


 


Section
5.6.Other Adjustment. In the event of any corporate event or transaction such as a merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, split up, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend, dividend
in kind, or other like change in capital structure (other than ordinary cash dividends) to shareholders of the Company, or other similar
corporate event or transaction affecting the Shares, the Committee, to prevent dilution or enlargement of Participants’ rights
under the Plan, shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, substitute or adjust, in its sole discretion, the number and kind of
shares that may be issued under the Plan or under any outstanding Awards, the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards,
the exercise price, grant price or purchase price applicable to outstanding Awards, and/or any other affected terms and conditions of
this Plan or outstanding Awards. The Committee shall not make any adjustment that would adversely affect the status of any Award that
is “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.


 


Section
5.7.Change of Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Plan, upon any Change in Control, the Committee
may, in its sole and absolute discretion and without the need for the consent of any Participant, take one or more of the following actions
contingent upon the occurrence of that Change in Control: (i) cause any or all outstanding Awards to become vested and immediately exercisable
(as applicable), in whole or in part; (ii) cause any outstanding Option to become fully vested and immediately exercisable for a reasonable
period in advance of the Change in Control and, to the extent not exercised prior to that Change in Control, cancel that Option upon
closing of the Change in Control; (iii) cancel any unvested Award or unvested portion thereof, with or without consideration; (iv) cancel
any Award in exchange for a substitute award; (v) redeem any Restricted Stock for cash and/or other substitute consideration with value
equal to Fair Market Value of an unrestricted Share on the date of the Change in Control; (vi) remove or deem satisfied any restriction
on Shares of Restricted Stock; (vii) cancel any Option in exchange for cash and/or other substitute consideration with a value equal
to: (A) the number of Shares subject to that Option, multiplied by (B) the difference, if any, between the Fair Market Value per Share
on the date of the Change in Control and the exercise price of that Option; provided, that if the Fair Market Value per Share on the
date of the Change in Control does not exceed the exercise price of any such Option, the Committee may cancel that Option without any
payment of consideration therefor; (viii) take such other action as the Committee shall determine to be reasonable under the circumstances;
and/or (ix) notwithstanding any provision of this Section 5.7, in the case of any Award subject to Section 409A of the Code, such Award
shall vest and be distributed only in accordance with the terms of the applicable Award Agreement and the Committee shall only be permitted
to use discretion to the extent that such discretion would be permitted under Section 409A of the Code.

ELIGIBILITY FOR AWARDS


 


Awards
made under the Plan may be granted solely to persons who, at the time of grant, are Employees, Directors or Consultants (or any such
person to whom an offer of employment or engagement with the Company or any Affiliate is extended). An eligible person must be a natural
person, and may only be granted an Award in connection with the provision of services not related to capital raising or promoting or
maintaining a market for the Common Stock. An Award may be granted on more than one occasion to the same Employee, Director or Consultant,
and, subject to the limitations set forth in the Plan, such Award may include a Non-Qualified Share Option, a Restricted Share Award,
an Unrestricted Share Award, a Distribution Equivalent Right Award, a Performance Unit Award, a Share Appreciation Right, a Tandem Share
Appreciation Right, any combination thereof or, solely for Employees, an Incentive Share Option.

OPTIONS


 


Section
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.


 


Section
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.


 


Section
7.3.Special Limitations on Incentive Share Options. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the
time the respective Incentive Share Option is granted) of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Share 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 Share 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 Share Options that exceeds such threshold shall be treated as Non-Qualified Share Options. Incentive Share
Options shall be granted to Employees only. 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
Share Options when granted to the Holder, will not constitute Incentive Share Options because of such limitation, and shall notify the
Holder of such determination as soon as practicable after such determination. No Incentive Share Option shall be granted to an Employee
if, at the time the Incentive Share Option is granted, such Employee is a Ten Percent Shareholder, unless (i) at the time such Incentive
Share Option is granted the Option price is at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
subject to the Incentive Share Option, and (ii) such Incentive Share Option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration
of five (5) years from the date of grant. No Incentive Share Option shall be granted more than ten (10) years from the date
on which the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders. The designation by the Committee of an Option as an Incentive Share
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.


 


Section
7.4.Option Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement in such form and containing such provisions not
inconsistent with the 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 Share 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 of Common Stock (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 specify the effect of termination of employment, Director status or Consultant status on the exercisability of the Option.
Moreover, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, an 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 Common Stock 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 Common
Stock 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 Common Stock 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. Each Option Agreement shall specify the effect of the termination of the Holder’s employment,
Director status or Consultant status on the exercisability of the Option. 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 (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.

Section
7.5.Option Price and Payment. The price at which a Common Share may be purchased upon exercise of an Option shall be determined
by the Committee and shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a Common Share on the date of grant of such Option; provided, however,
that such Option price as determined by the Committee shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Article XIV. The Option price
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 Common Stock otherwise issuable in connection
with the exercise of the Option, for purposes of Section 7.4. Separate share certificates shall be issued by the Company for those
Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Share Option and for those Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise
of a Non-Qualified Share Option.


 


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


 


Section
7.7.Options and Rights in Substitution for Stock or Share Options Granted by Other Corporations. Options may be granted under
the Plan from time to time in substitution for stock or share options held by individuals employed by entities who become Employees 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. Notwithstanding Section 7.5, the Committee may designate
a purchase price below Fair Market Value on the date of grant if the Option is granted in substitution for a stock option previously
granted by an entity that is acquired by or merged with the Company or an Affiliate.


 


Section
7.8.Prohibition Against Repricing. 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 XIV, the Committee shall not have the power or authority to reduce, whether through amendment or otherwise,
the exercise price under any outstanding Option or Share 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 Share Appreciation Rights previously granted.


 


Section
7.9.Termination of Services. Unless otherwise specified with respect to a particular Option in the applicable Award Agreement
or otherwise determined by the Committee, any portion of an Option that is not exercisable upon termination of service will expire immediately
and automatically upon such termination and any portion of an Option that is exercisable upon termination of service will expire on the
date it ceases to be exercisable in accordance with this Article VII.


 


(i)
If a Participant’s service with the Company terminates by reason of death, any Option held by such Participant may thereafter be
exercised, to the extent it was exercisable at the time of his or her death or on such accelerated basis as the Committee may determine
at or after grant, by the legal representative of the estate or by the legatee of the Participant, for a period expiring (A) at such
time as may be specified by the Committee at or after grant; (B) if not specified by the Committee, then 12 months from the date of death;
or (C) if sooner than the applicable period specified under (A) or (B) above, upon the expiration of the stated term of such Option.

(ii)
If a Participant’s service with the Company terminates by reason of Disability, any Option held by such Participant may thereafter
be exercised by the Participant or his personal representative, to the extent it was exercisable at the time of termination, or on such
accelerated basis as the Committee may determine at or after grant, for a period expiring: (A) at such time as may be specified by the
Committee at or after grant; (B) if not specified by the Committee, then 12 months from the date of termination of service; or (C) if
sooner than the applicable period specified under (A) or (B) above, upon the expiration of the stated term of such Option.


 


(iii)
If a Participant’s service with the Company is terminated for Cause: (A) any Option, or portion thereof, not already exercised
will be immediately and automatically forfeited as of the date of such termination; and (B) any Shares for which the Company has not
yet delivered share certificates will be immediately and automatically forfeited and the Company will refund to the Participant the Option
exercise price paid for such Shares, if any.


 


(iv)
If a Participant’s service with the Company terminates for any reason other than death, Disability or Cause, any Option held by
such Participant may thereafter be exercised by the Participant, to the extent it was exercisable at the time of such termination, or
on such accelerated basis as the Committee may determine at or after grant, for a period expiring: (A) at such time as may be specified
by the Committee at or after grant; (B) if not specified by the Committee, then 90 days from the date of termination of service; or (C)
if sooner than the applicable period specified under (A) or (B) above, upon the expiration of the stated term of such Option.

RESTRICTED SHARE AWARDS


 


Section
8.1.Issuance. Restricted Stock may be issued either alone or in conjunction with other Awards. The Committee will determine
the time or times within which Restricted Stock may be subject to forfeiture, and all other conditions of such Awards. The purchase price
for Restricted Stock may, but need not, be zero. The prospective recipient of an Award of Restricted Stock will not have any rights with
respect to such Award, unless and until such recipient has delivered to the Company an executed Award Agreement and has otherwise complied
with the applicable terms and conditions of such Award.


 


Section
8.2.Certificates. Upon the Award of Restricted Stock, the Committee may direct that a certificate or certificates representing
the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award be issued to the Participant or placed in a restricted stock account (including
an electronic account) with the transfer agent and in either case designating the Participant as the registered owner. The certificate(s)
representing such shares shall be physically or electronically legended, as applicable, as to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or other
encumbrances during the Restriction Period and if issued to the Participant, returned to the Company, to be held in escrow during the
Restriction Period. As a condition to any Award of Restricted Stock, the Participant may be required to deliver to the Company a share
power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Shares covered by such Award.


 


Section
8.3.Restriction Period. During a period commencing with the date of an Award of Restricted Stock and ending at such time or
times as specified by the Committee (the “Restriction Period”), the Participant will not be permitted to sell, transfer,
pledge, assign or otherwise encumber Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan. The Committee may condition the lapse of restrictions on
Restricted Stock upon the continued employment or service of the recipient, the attainment of specified individual or corporate performance
goals, or such other factors as the Committee may determine, in its sole and absolute discretion. While any Share of Restricted Stock
remains subject to restriction, the Participant will have, with respect to the Restricted Stock, the right to vote the Shares, but will
not have the right to receive any cash distributions or dividends prior to the lapse of the Restriction Period underlying such Shares
unless otherwise provided under the applicable Award Agreement or as determined by the Committee. If any cash distributions or dividends
are payable with respect to the Restricted Stock, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may require the cash distributions or dividends
to be subjected to the same Restriction Period as is applicable to the Restricted Stock with respect to which such amounts are paid,
or, if the Committee so determines, reinvested in additional Restricted Stock to the extent Shares are available under Section 5.1 of
the Plan. A Participant shall not be entitled to interest with respect to any dividends or distributions subjected to the Restriction
Period. Any distributions or dividends paid in the form of securities with respect to Restricted Stock will be subject to the same terms
and conditions as the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid, including, without limitation, the same Restriction Period.

Section
8.4.Other Terms and Conditions. Common Stock awarded pursuant to a Restricted Share Award shall be represented by a share
certificate registered in the name of the Holder of such Restricted Share Award. If provided for under the Restricted Share Award Agreement,
the Holder shall have the right to vote Common Stock subject thereto and to enjoy all other stockholder rights, including the entitlement
to receive dividends on the Common Stock 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 Common Stock during the Restriction Period, and (iv) a breach of the terms and
conditions established by the Committee pursuant to the Restricted Share Award Agreement shall cause a forfeiture of the Restricted Share
Award. At the time of such Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe additional terms and conditions or restrictions
relating to Restricted Share Awards, including, but not limited to, rules pertaining to the effect of termination of employment, Director
status or Consultant status prior to expiration of the Restriction Period. Such additional terms, conditions or restrictions shall be
set forth in a Restricted Share Award Agreement made in conjunction with the Award. Such Restricted Share Award 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 (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 Share Agreements need not be identical.


 


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


 


Section
8.6.Restricted Share Award Agreements. At the time any Award is made under this Article VIII, the Company and the Holder
shall enter into a Restricted Share Award Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated hereby and such other matters as the
Committee may determine to be appropriate.


 


Section
8.7.Termination of Services. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award Agreement or as otherwise determined by the
Committee, if a Participant’s service with the Company terminates for any reason prior to the expiration of the applicable Restriction
Period, the Participant’s Restricted Stock that then remains subject to forfeiture will then be forfeited automatically. The foregoing
notwithstanding, any Shares of Restricted Stock shall become free of all restriction if, during the Restriction Period, the Participant’s
service with the Company terminates as a result of (i) the death or Disability of the Participant; (ii) the Participant retires after
attaining the age of 59  years of age and five years of continuous service with the Company.

UNRESTRICTED SHARE AWARDS


 


Pursuant
to the terms of the applicable Unrestricted Share Award Agreement, a Holder may be awarded (or sold) Common Stock which are not subject
to Restrictions, in consideration for past services rendered thereby to the Company or an Affiliate or for other valid consideration.
Unrestricted Stock may be issued either alone or in conjunction with other Awards. Upon the Award of Unrestricted Stock, the Committee
may direct that a certificate or certificates representing the number of Shares of Common Stock subject to such Award be issued to the

prescribe additional terms and conditions or restrictions relating to Restricted Share Unit Awards, including, but not limited to, rules
pertaining to the effect of termination of employment, Director status or Consultant status prior to expiration of the applicable vesting
period. The terms and conditions of the respective Restricted Share Unit Award Agreements need not be identical.

Value of a Common Share, or one (1) Common Share, as determined, in the sole discretion, of the Committee and as set forth in the
Restricted Share Unit Award Agreement, for each Restricted Share Unit subject to such Restricted Share Unit Award, if the Holder satisfies
the applicable vesting requirement.

PERFORMANCE UNIT AWARDS


 


Section
11.1.Terms and Conditions. The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Performance Unit Award Agreement the performance
goals and objectives (and the period of time to which such goals and objectives shall apply) which the Holder and/or the Company would
be required to satisfy before the Holder would become entitled to payment pursuant to Section 11.2, the number of Units awarded
to the Holder and the dollar value assigned to each such Unit. 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 employment, Director status or Consultant status prior to expiration of the applicable performance period.
The terms and conditions of the respective Performance Unit Award Agreements need not be identical. Performance Awards may be denominated
as a number of Shares, or a specified number of other Awards, which may be earned upon achievement or satisfaction of such Performance
Goals as may be specified by the Committee. In addition, the Committee may specify that any other Award shall constitute a Performance
Award by conditioning the vesting or settlement of the Award upon the achievement or satisfaction of such Performance Goals as may be
specified by the Committee


 


Section
11.2.Payments. The Holder of a Performance Unit shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the dollar value or number
of Common Shares assigned to such Unit under the applicable Performance Unit Award Agreement if the Holder and/or the Company satisfy
(or partially satisfy, if applicable under the applicable Performance Unit Award Agreement) the performance goals and objectives set
forth in such Performance Unit Award Agreement.


 


Section
11.3.Adjustments to Performance Goals. The Committee may provide, at the time Performance Goals are established, that adjustments
will be made to those performance goals to take into account, in any objective manner specified by the Committee, the impact of one or
more of the following: (i) gain or loss from all or certain claims and/or litigation and insurance recoveries; (ii) the impairment of
tangible or intangible assets; (iii) stock-based compensation expense; (iv) restructuring activities reported in the Company’s
public filings; (v) investments, dispositions or acquisitions; (vi) loss from the disposal of certain assets; (vii) gain or loss from
the early extinguishment, redemption or repurchase of debt; (viii) changes in accounting principles; or (ix) any other item, event or
circumstance that would not cause an Award to fail to constitute “qualified performance-based compensation” under Section
162(m) of the Code (to the extent such Award is intended to be “qualified performance-based compensation”). An adjustment
described in this Section may relate to the Company or to any subsidiary, division or other operational unit of the Company, as determined
by the Committee at the time the performance goals are established. Any adjustment shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and standards, unless such other objective method of measurement is designated by the committee at the time performance
objectives are established. In addition, adjustments will be made as necessary to any performance criteria related to the Company’s
stock to reflect changes in corporate capitalization, including a recapitalization, stock split or combination, stock dividend, spin-off,
merger, reorganization or other similar event or transaction affecting the Company’s equity.

the terms and conditions applicable to such Award, 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 Common Stock or is to be entitled to
choose among such alternatives. Distribution Equivalent Rights Awards may be settled in cash or in Common Stock, 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, 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.


 


Section

SHARE APPRECIATION RIGHTS


 


Section
13.1.Terms and Conditions. The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Share Appreciation Right Award Agreement the terms
and conditions of the Share Appreciation Right, including (i) the base value (the “Base Value”) for the Share Appreciation
Right, which for purposes of a Share Appreciation Right which is not a Tandem Share Appreciation Right, shall be not less than the Fair
Market Value of a Common Share on the date of grant of the Share Appreciation Right (unless granted in substitution for an appreciation
right previously granted by an entity that is acquired by or merged with the Company or an Affiliate), (ii) the number of Common
Stock subject to the Share Appreciation Right, (iii) the period during which the Share Appreciation Right may be exercised; provided,
however, that no Share 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 Share Appreciation Right. Upon the exercise
of some or all of the portion of a Share Appreciation Right, the Holder shall receive a payment from the Company, in cash or in the form

Base Value, multiplied by; (b) The number of Common Stock with respect to which the Share Appreciation Right is exercised.


 


Section
13.2.Tandem Share Appreciation Rights. If the Committee grants a Share Appreciation Right which is intended to be a Tandem
Share Appreciation Right, the Tandem Share 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 Common Share exercise price under the related Option;

(b)       The
Tandem Share Appreciation Right may be exercised for all or part of the Common Stock 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 an Common
Share is purchased under the related Option, an equivalent portion of the related Tandem Share Appreciation Right shall be cancelled);


 


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


 


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

RECAPITALIZATION OR REORGANIZATION


 


Section
14.1.Adjustments to Common Stock. The shares with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan are Common Stock as
presently constituted; provided, however, that if, and whenever, prior to the expiration or distribution to the Holder of Common Stock
underlying an Award theretofore granted, the Company shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of the Common Stock or the payment of
a Common Share dividend on Common Stock without receipt of consideration by the Company, the number of Common Stock 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
Common Stock, shall be proportionately increased, and the purchase price per Common Share shall be proportionately reduced, and (ii) in
the event of a reduction in the number of outstanding Common Stock, shall be proportionately reduced, and the purchase price per Common
Share shall be proportionately increased. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Article XIV, any adjustment
made with respect to an Award (x) which is an Incentive Share 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 Share 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
Share 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 Share Option granted under the Plan to become subject to Section 409A of the Code.


 


Section
14.2.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 Common Stock 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 Common Stock then covered by such Award.


 


Section
14.3.Other Events. In the event of changes to the outstanding Common Stock by reason of extraordinary cash dividend, reorganization,
mergers, consolidations, combinations, split-ups, spin-offs, exchanges, stock split, reverse stock split or other relevant changes in
capitalization occurring after the date of the grant of any Award and not otherwise provided for under this Article XIV, any outstanding
Awards and any Award Agreements evidencing such Awards shall be adjusted by the Committee, in such manner as the Committee shall deem
equitable or appropriate taking into consideration the applicable accounting and tax consequences, as to the number and price of Common
Stock or other consideration subject to such Awards. In the event of any adjustment pursuant to Sections 14.1, 14.2 or this Section 14.3,
the aggregate number of Common Stock available under the Plan pursuant to Section 5.1 may be appropriately adjusted by the Committee,
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. The number of Common Stock subject to any Award shall be rounded to the nearest whole number.

Section
14.4.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 stockholders 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 Common Stock 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.


 


Section
14.5.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 Common Stock subject to Awards theretofore granted or the purchase price per Common
Share, if applicable.

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN


 


The
Plan shall continue in effect, unless sooner terminated pursuant to this Article XV, 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

termination shall not materially and adversely impair the rights of a Holder with respect to any Award theretofore granted without the

of shares authorized under the Plan as specified in Section 5.1, (iii) increases the dollar limitation specified in Section 5.4,
or (iv) amends, modifies or suspends Section 7.8 (repricing prohibitions) or this Article XV. In addition, unless otherwise

ARTICLE

MISCELLANEOUS


 


Section
16.1.No Right to Award. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Company nor any action of the Board or the Committee shall
be deemed 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.


 


Section
16.2.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
such Consultant’s 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.


 


Section
16.3.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 Common Stock 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 Common Stock 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 Common Stock shall be delivered, nor shall any cash in lieu of fractional Common Stock 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 Common Stock, no Common Stock 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, Common Stock (including Common Stock issuable in respect of an Award) to satisfy,
in whole or in part, the amount required to be withheld.

Section
16.4.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.


 


Section
16.5.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) except for an Incentive Share Option, by gift to any Family
Member of the Holder. 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 16.3 hereof.


 


Section
16.6.Limits on Transferability; Beneficiaries. The Committee may also establish procedures as it deems appropriate for a Holder
to designate a person or persons, as beneficiary or beneficiaries, to exercise the rights of the Holder and receive any property distributable
with respect to any Award in the event of the Holder’s death. In the absence of any such written beneficiary designation, for purposes
of the Plan, a Holder’s beneficiary shall be the Holder’s estate. No Award or other right or interest of a Participant under
the Plan shall be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to, or in favor of, or subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant
to, any person, other than the Company, or assigned or transferred by such Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent
and distribution, and such Awards and rights shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant or his
or her guardian or legal representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its discretion, provide that Awards or
other rights or interests of a Participant granted pursuant to the Plan be transferable, without consideration, to immediate family members
(i.e., children, grandchildren or spouse), to trusts for the benefit of such immediate family members, to retirement plans and other
accounts in the name and for the benefit of such Participant (and to the beneficiaries designated in such retirement plans), and to partnerships
in which such family members are the only partners. The Committee may attach to such transferability feature such terms and conditions
as it deems advisable. In addition, a Participant may, in the manner established by the Committee, designate a beneficiary (which may
be a person or a trust) to exercise the rights of the Participant, and to receive any distribution, with respect to any Award upon the
death of the Participant. A beneficiary, guardian, legal representative or other person claiming any rights under the Plan from or through
any Participant shall be subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to such Participant, except
as otherwise determined by the Committee, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee.


 


Section
16.7.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.


 


Section
16.8.Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any Award to the contrary, to the extent that any amount or
benefit that constitutes “deferred compensation” to a Holder under Section 409A of the Code and applicable guidance
thereunder is otherwise payable or distributable to a Holder under the Plan or any Award solely by reason of the occurrence of a change
in control event or due to the Holder’s disability or “separation from service” (as such term is defined under Section 409A
of the Code), such amount or benefit will not be payable or distributable to the Holder by reason of such circumstance unless the Committee
determines in good faith that (i) the circumstances giving rise to such change in control event, disability or separation from service
meet the definition of a change in control event, disability or separation from service, as the case may be, in Section 409A of
the Code and applicable proposed or final regulations, or (ii) the payment or distribution of such amount or benefit would be exempt
from the application of Section 409A of the Code by reason of the short-term deferral exemption or otherwise. Any payment or distribution
that otherwise would be made to a Holder who is a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A of the Code) on
account of separation from service may not be made before the date which is six (6) months after the date of the specified employee’s
separation from service (or if earlier, upon the specified employee’s death) unless the payment or distribution is exempt from
the application of Section 409A of the Code by reason of the short-term deferral exemption or otherwise.

Section
16.9.Indemnification. Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Board or of the Committee 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.


 


Section
16.10.Other 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,
directors and other service providers, in cash or property, in a manner which is not expressly authorized under the Plan.


 


Section
16.11.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. If the
Company cannot, by the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts, obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction for
the sale of any Shares under this Plan, and such authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance
of those Shares, the Company will be relieved of any liability for failing to issue or sell those Shares. If Shares subject to an Award
exceed, as of the date of grant, the number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan without additional shareholder approval, that
Award will be contingent with respect to such excess Shares, on the effectiveness under Applicable Law of a sufficient increase in the
number of Shares subject to this Plan. The Company will pay all amounts payable under this Plan only to the applicable Participant, or
beneficiaries entitled thereto pursuant to this Plan. The Company will not be liable for the debts, contracts, or engagements of any
Participant or his or her beneficiaries, and rights to cash payments under this Plan may not be taken in execution by attachment or garnishment,
or by any other legal or equitable proceeding while in the hands of the Company. The Company will not have any liability or other obligations
relating to any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by any Participant or other person as a result of the grant, vesting, expiration,
termination or exercise an Award under this Plan.


 


Section
16.12.Governing Law. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Plan shall be construed in accordance with Nevada law, without
regard to principles of conflicts of law.


 


Section
16.13.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.


 


Section
16.14.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.


 


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


 


Section
16.16.Terms of Award Agreements. Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. The terms of the Award Agreements utilized
under the Plan need not be the same.
